Abstract

:
Protein kinase inhibitors (PKIs) are important therapeutic agents. As of 31 May 2021, the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) has approved 70 PKIs. Most of the PKIs are employed to treat cancer and inflammatory diseases. Imatinib was the first PKI approved by USFDA in 2001. This review summarizes the compound patents and the essential polymorph patents of the PKIs approved by the USFDA from 2001 to 31 May 2021. The dates on the generic drug availability of the PKIs in the USA market have also been forecasted. It is expected that 19 and 48 PKIs will be genericized by 2025 and 2030, respectively, due to their compound patent expiry. This may reduce the financial toxicity associated with the existing PKIs. There are nearly 535 reported PKs. However, the USFDA approved PKIs target only about 10–15% of the total said PKs. As a result, there are still a large number of unexplored PKs. As the field advances during the next 20 years, one can anticipate that PKIs with many scaffolds, chemotypes, and pharmacophores will be developed.

1. Introduction

Protein kinases (PKs) are ubiquitous intracellular and cell surface enzymatic proteins that selectively catalyzes phosphate group’s relocation from ATP, GTP, and other phosphate donors to protein substrates [1]. The PKs mainly catalyze the relocation of a γ-phosphatase group of ATP to the oxygen atom of the -OH group of threonine, serine, and tyrosine residues in peptides/polypeptides, thereby making a conformational variation from an inactive to an active form [1,2]. They constitute an extensive family of structurally related enzymes that are known to be implicated in almost all the signal transduction activities, frequently with cascades of phosphorylation proceedings taking place within the cell [3]. The signal transduction involves the reversible phosphorylation of proteins that helps to regulate mature proteins by altering their structure and function [4,5]. To date, nearly 535 human PKs have been identified [6], wherein more than 478 belong to a superfamily whose catalytic domains are sequentially interrelated. These PKs are additionally categorized into groups, families, and subfamilies established on their biochemical activities. The main two classifications are Serine/threonine PKs and Tyrosine-specific PKs [5]. The seven significant groups with the description of families, subfamilies, and functions are listed in Table 1.
TKs form a distinct group, which phosphorylates proteins on tyrosine, whereas others phosphorylate serine and threonine residues. In addition to this category, there are atypical kinases, which are not related to any sequence resemblance to characteristic kinases but are well recognized for their enzymatic activity similar to specific kinases. Some kinases are believed to lack the catalytic domain for effective phosphorylation and are called pseudokinases. Still, they are distributed across all kinase families, indicating that an absence of catalysis is not a formal barricade to the evolution of unique or irreplaceable biological functions [7].

Some of them are involved in synaptic transmission, myelination, axon guidance, and oligodendrocyte formation [13]

PKs perform a significant function in signal transduction and control of most cellular processes, including cell growth, differentiation, proliferation, angiogenesis, apoptosis, cytoskeletal arrangement, regulation of metabolic reactions, membrane transport, and motility, etc. [6]. Non-catalytic functions of PKs are also essential and include the allosteric effect, subcellular targeting, the scaffolding of protein complexes, competition for protein interactions, and DNA binding [15]. Because PKs regulate most fundamental biological processes, any dysregulation, genetic alteration, and abrupt change in kinase function are typically linked with pathological conditions such as cancer, immunologic, neurological, cardiovascular, and metabolic disorders [3,5]. Hence, manipulation of PKs signaling pathway, regulation, and inhibition constitutes important clinical targets for pharmacological intervention and thus for the identification and development of Protein Kinase Inhibitors (PKIs) to manage and treat several chronic diseases [4,6,16]. Over the past two decades, approximately 1/5th-1/3rd drug discovery programs worldwide have targeted PKs for the drug development of various illnesses.
Kinase mutation frequency is much less, and thus targeting kinases could be helpful in life-saving therapies especially for cancer. A well-known example is receptor tyrosine kinase ALK where gene fusion between EML4 and ALK occurs only in 5% of NSCLC patients and therefore many patients responded to the kinome therapy effectively. Identification of additional effective kinome targets will therefore represent an Achilles heel in a subset of cancer. The use of bioinformatics tools in predicting the likelihood that a given mutation will alter the function of a kinase will be essential in pinpointing cancer-associated kinases [17].
There are about 175 kinase drugs under clinical trials and newer targets are also under evaluation including AKT, Aurora kinases, CHEK1, and CDK1. However, most of the drugs under investigation are well known for targeting EGFR, VEGFR, PI3K, and mTOR [18]. Even though CAMK, CK1, or AGC kinases groups are well-known and evidenced as the primary targets for cancer, there are no investigational drugs that target these kinases are enrolled. So far only 8% of the entire kinome has been effectively “drugged” and a quarter of human kinases are vastly understudied [19]. A wide-ranging scoring system to rank and prioritize clinically relevant kinase targets of different solid tumor cancers from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) has been developed [19].
Successful applications and deep insights into the ever-diversifying therapeutic space occupied by kinase targets are also explored. For effective target validation and to avoid complicating off-target mediated response it is essential to achieve the desired selectivity while targeting kinases, though it is still an ongoing challenge. The application of large-scale omics data has been modernized to combine multiple parameters to evaluate the protein’s potential as a drug target or biomarker [19].
In recent years, intricately selective kinase chemical probes have been generated by the exploitation of unique pockets using molecular modeling and bioinformatics, prioritizing the ligand-efficient leads and novel chemotypes and the extensive use of kinome-wide profiling [20].
Chemical proteomics and broad kinome profiling of compound libraries have been implemented as an efficient method to lead to discovery, analyzing targets, and optimization [21]. Results revealed that unknown targets for established drugs presented a viewpoint on the "druggable" kinome, emphasized non-kinase off-targets, and recommended for potential therapeutic applications. A database of the cellular targets of 243 clinical kinase inhibitors has been made available using kinobead technology [21].
The ongoing research will undoubtedly pave the way for a better understanding of molecular pathways that will further unravel the role of PKs in pathogenesis. As of now, the majority of the USFDA-approved PKIs are Protein Tyrosine Kinase inhibitors (PTKIs) followed by protein-serine/threonine PKIs. Most of these drugs are clinically used to treat solid (breast, lung, colon) and non-solid tumors (leukemia). Some PKIs are also effective in treating non-malignant diseases, including myelofibrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, glaucoma, ulcerative colitis, pulmonary fibrosis, etc. [22,23].

2. USFDA Approved Protein Kinase Inhibitors

In 2001, the USFDA approved the marketing of the first clinical PKI, imatinib. Since then, the USFDA has approved about 70 PKIs for clinical use (Table 2) (Figure 1). The data provided in Table 2 have been obtained from USFDA’s Orange Book website (https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cder/ob/index.cfm?resetfields=1 (accessed on 31 May 2021) using the drug’s name.

3. Patent Searching

The patent searching was performed using the Sci-finder database (CAS Number search, and the exact structure search of each TKI), USFDA’s Orange Book website (mentioned above), and the Drugbank’s website (https://go.drugbank.com/ (accessed on 31 May 2021)) using the drug’s name. The patents disclosing the specific TKI, its marketed active pharmaceutical ingredient, and important polymorphs from the innovative company for the first time were identified and included in this review. The patents of each TKI that claim its treatment methods, dosage forms, formulations, drug combinations, particle size, impurity, preparation process, intermediates, etc., have been excluded from this review. The expiry dates of the selected patents were calculated (20 years from the patent application filing date comprising patent term extension, if any). Sometimes, the drug’s patent term is extended up to five years based on the USPTO’s laws. Accordingly, the expiry dates of the selected patients were also verified from the USPTO’s website. It was also observed that some TKIs were disclosed in different patents of the same patent family and had other expiry dates. In such cases, the patent that had a more extended expiry date was selected for this review because the generic launch of the drug is based on the expiry date of the drug’s patent. The legal status of the patents cited herein was obtained from the website of USPTO (https://portal.uspto.gov/pair/PublicPair (accessed on 31 May 2021)).

The stability and physicochemical parameters of the crystalline Form A were better than other disclosed polymorphs [211].

5. Expert Opinion

In 2001, USFDA approved the marketing of the first clinical PKI, imatinib. From 2001 to 31 May 2021, about 70 PKIs have been approved by the USFDA (Table 2). The USFDA has also approved antibodies as PKIs such as trastuzumab and bevacizumab. A few antibodies are also in the clinical trial (amivantamab and patritumab). This review is limited to small molecules as PKIs. Accordingly, USFDA approved antibodies such as PKIs have not been discussed here. The physicochemical properties of about 55 USFDA approved PKIs from 2001 to 2020 have been described in the literature [22,23]. However, these reports are silent about the patent data of the PKIs reported therein.
According to the patent literature, and the data presented in Table 2 and Table 3, the major players that developed the marketed PKIs include Novartis (imatinib, lapatinib, everolimus, nilotinib, pazopanib, trametinib, dabrafenib, ceritinib, ribociclib, midostaurin, alpelisib, capmatinib, and infigratinib), Pfizer (tofacitinib, palbociclib, dacomitinib, and lorlatinib), Astrazeneca (gefitinib, osimertinib, acalabrutinib, and selumetinib), Bayers (sorafenib, regorafenib, copanlisib, and larotrectinib), and PF Prism (temsirolimus, crizotinib, axitinib, and bosutinib). Nearly 535 PKs have been reported [6]. However, the major primary target of the approved PKIs includes ALK, BCR-Abel, B-RAF, BTK, CDK, EGFR, JAK, MEK, PDGFR, PI3K, RET, and VEGFR (Table 2). Accordingly, there remains a large number of unexplored PKs. Some KIs have specificity for multiple kinases and are called multikinase inhibitors (MKIs), such as sunitinib, regorafenib, imatinib, sorafenib, axitinib, lenvatinib, cabozantinib, vandetanib, and pazopanib. The MKIs are supposed to reduce the chances of developing resistance. However, they are also linked to causing adverse effects in patients, for example, hypertension, gastric upset, and dermatological reactions [212]. The development of the covalent PKIs (ibrutinib, dacomitinib, osimertinib, afatinib, and neratinib) had been an unwilling strategy because they can bind to certain proteins and cause toxicity. Furthermore, the allosteric PKIs (trametinib, ascinimib, and selumetinib) are considered better than covalent inhibitors as they are not supposed to bind with other proteins. However, many new kinases have been identified possessing cysteine residues at their active sites. Therefore, the design of potent and selective covalent inhibitors may be useful against such kinases [213,214]. The pharmaceutical industries are trying to develop more potent and safer PKIs that can be used to treat many more PKs associated disorders with fewer adverse events [23]. Some example of PKIs, which are under development and/or waiting for the USFDA approval, include abrocitinib, belumosudil, dovitinib, sitravatinib, abivertinib, enzastaurin, rivoceranib (apatinib), asciminib, ensartinib, mobocertinib, momelotinib, pacritinib, quizartinib, vorolanib, GLPG3970, CA-4948, BAY1834845, BAY1830839, and PF-06650833 [213,214].
The PKIs contain one or more heterocyclic moieties in their structure that can explain the difference in their binding to the target and thus the spectrum of activity. The primary heterocyclic moieties include quinazoline, quinoline, isoquinoline, pyridine, pyrimidine, pyrazole, benzimidazole, indazole, imidazole, indole, carbazole, or their fused structures. This observation suggests that many clinical PKIs have been developed by the chemical modification of a formerly approved drug, and PKs are promiscuous targets. Further, most of the PKIs are marketed as acid-addition salts (hydrochloride, mesylate, tosylate, phosphate, malate, citrate, esylate, fumarate, succinate, and sulfate). This observation indicates the basic nature of the chemical nucleus of the PKIs.
The majority of the PKIs are approved to treat cancer and inflammatory disorders. Some of the PKIs have shown efficacy towards autoimmune diseases, Alzheimer’s disease (neflamapimod, tideglusib, and saracitinib), and Parkinson’s disease (DNL201). It is also expected that PKIs of PKC/WNK that control the activity of ion transporters may be developed to treat hypertension [214].
The malignant cells have genomic instability, which may cause the development of resistance to PKIs. This phenomenon is the reason for developing 2nd, 3rd, and later generations of PKIs targeting the equivalent PKs and their related disorders [212]. To combat resistance development, scientists are exploring different chemical templates and pharmacophores to develop novel PKIs [22]. Besides, inflammatory conditions do not exhibit genomic instability. Therefore, the PKIs, which are approved to treat inflammatory disorders, seldom demonstrate the development of resistance [22,23].
The main marketed dosage form of about 66 USFDA approved PKIs is either a tablet or capsule (Table 2). These are solid dosage forms. The quality of the formulation of a solid dosage form depends upon the solid-state properties (stability, solubility, compressibility, etc.) of the drug [215]. Therefore, many patents related to salts and polymorphs (mostly crystalline forms) of the USFDA approved PKIs have been obtained by the innovator companies. The innovator companies have done this to capture the market for a longer time.
The development of the PKIs is considered a medical breakthrough. However, the prices of these therapeutics cause financial toxicity. The financial burden can make the patients non-compliant with the treatment instructions as they may take lower doses than the prescribed doses. This causes failure of the treatment [216,217]. One way to avoid financial toxicity is to develop the generic version of a drug [218]. Currently, seven PKIs have been genericized (imatinib, erlotinib, sorafenib, dasatinib, lapatinib, temsirolimus, and everolimus) (Table 3). These generic versions must have lower prices than the innovator products. The data given in Table 3 also suggest that twelve more PKIs (gefitinib, sunitinib, pazopanib, vandetanib, axitinib, bosutinib, tofacitinib, idelalisib, nintedanib, lenvatinib, midostaurin, and neratinib) may be genericized by 2025 due to basic/compound/governing patent expiry or expiry of the drug exclusivity. It means by the end of 2025, 19 PKIs will have their generic version in the USA market. Besides, it is also expected that the generic version of about 48 PKIs will be available in the USA market by the end of 2030. Thus, it is hoped that the generic availability of these PKIs will reduce the financial toxicity on a patient.
Although great strides have been made in developing small molecule such as PKIs during the past 20 years, this field is still in its infancy. PKs are ubiquitous, and hence specificity has always been an issue regarding the design of new therapies targeting them. The major disadvantage of the existing PKIs is that they target a minor portion of the kinome, with countless clinically significant kinases missing validated inhibitors [22,23]. There are essential kinases without any inhibitors, and this is a critical area for further research. As the field advances during the next 20 years, one can anticipate that PKIs with many scaffolds, chemotypes, and pharmacophores will be developed. Other innovative strategies are also expected soon. A summary of the PKIs is provided in Figure 72.
In conclusion, there is a huge scope for discovering PKIs, and it will dominate other cancer discovery strategies for decades. The rate of discovery of better and selective PKIs having less propensity for resistance development will be faster than the last two decades because of the better understanding of the molecular and structural aspects of the human kinases. The development of PKIs to treat hypertension, Alzheimer’s disease, and Parkinson’s disease are foreseeable.
