Comment: Although the name-to-structure for BLU-451 has not been formally published, a focussed review of patents [3-4], declared company pipelines (Blueprint Medicines [1]), published literature, meeting abstracts [6] and other online information leads us to consider the chemical structure presented here as a very strong candidate for BLU-451.
BLU-451 (formerly LNG-451) is a wild-type EGFR-sparing, CNS-penetrant and covalent EGFR Exon 20 insertion (Ex20ins) inhibitor that is in development for anti‑tumour potential, particularly for non-small cell lung cancers that express variant EGFRs with Exon 20 insertions (i.e., resistance mutations) [2,5]. The Ex20ins-targeting drugs amivantamab and mobocertinib are already in clinical use, but their activity within the brain has not been established. Minimising activity at WT EGFRs is propsed to reduce on-target toxicity. The chemical structure for BLU-451 was matched to that for the INN pebezertinib from WHO proposed INN list 131 (August 2024). |
