• Protein kinases are enzymes that catalyze the phosphorylation of specific residues in proteins, and are broadly classified into tyrosine and serine/threonine kinases. Inappropriate kinase activity, arising from mutation, over-expression, or inappropriate regulation, dys -regulation or de-regulation, as well as over- or under-production of growth factors or cytokines has been implicated in many diseases, including but not limited to cancer, cardiovascular diseases, allergies, asthma and other respiratory diseases, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, bone diseases, metabolic disorders, and neurological and neurodegenerative disorders.

• IFN alpha type II interferon receptors

• interleukin-6 family IL-10, IL- 13 and IL-22.
• STAT proteins then dimerize and translocate to the nucleus where they function as both signaling molecules and transcription factors and ultimately bind to specific DNA sequences present in the promoters of cytokine-responsive genes.
• Various immunodeficiency and autoimmune diseases such as allergies, asthma, alopecia areata, transplant (allograft) rejection, rheumatoid arthritis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and multiple sclerosis, and solid and hematologic cancers result from signaling disruption in the JAK/STAT pathway.
• JAK1 An important element of JAK1 is the ability to pair with other JAK kinases at the intracellular domains of different subunits of the receptor.
• JAK3 associates with the common gamma chain (yc) of the various cytokine receptors. It has been indicated that JAK1 is dominant over JAK3, and inhibition of JAK1 is sufficient to inactivate signaling through the common gamma chain despite JAK3 activity. Thus, selective inhibition of JAK1 may be sufficient to treat a number of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases associated with cytokine signaling via the JAK1/JAK3-STAT pathway.
• JAK1 selective inhibitors There are few selective JAK1 inhibitors to date that have little to no off-target activity against other JAK kinases. Compounds identified as JAK1 selective inhibitors exhibit only marginal JAK1 selectivity. There is a need, therefore, to develop highly potent and selective JAK1 inhibitors to treat JAKl-related disorders, including allergic, inflammatory, and autoimmune disorders.

Frequency of dosage may also vary depending on the compound used and the particular disease treated. However, for treatment of most allergic, inflammatory, or autoimmune disorders, a dosage regimen of 4 times daily or less is preferred and a dosage regimen of 1 or 2 times daily is particularly preferred.
• LC-MS was performed on Shimadzu LCMS-2020 equipped with LC-20AD or 30 AD pumps, SPD-M20A PDA and Alltech 3300 ELSD; Mobile Phase: A: Water (0.1% Formic acid), B: ACN; 5 minute run; Column: Sepax BR-C18 4.6*50 mm, 3 pm; Flow Rate: 1.0 ml/min; Oven Temperature: 40 °C; Gradient: 20% B for 0.2 min, increase to 70% B within 1.8 min, 70% B for 2.8 min, back to 20% B within 0.2 min, 20% B for 2 min.
• the JAK1/JAK2 potency ratio defined as the inverse ratio of IC50 values for JAK1 over JAK2, is about at least 30, and in some cases 50 to 85 or more.
• the JAK1/JAK3 potency ratio defined as the inverse ratio of IC50 values for JAK1 over JAK3, is about at least 3, and in some cases 40 to 70 or more.
• the assay results demonstrate significantly lower IC50 values for JAK1 inhibition, which shows the selectivity of compounds of Formula I for JAK1 over JAK2 and JAK3, and provide a basis for determining whether a more selective biochemical profile will translate into an improved clinical profile by sparing the JAK2 or JAK- dependent cellular pathways.
• the JAK enzymatic assay used the following reagents.
• JAK1 (BPS Bioscience, San Diego, CA Cat.No. 40449)
• JAK2 (Cama Bio, USA, Inc. Natick, MA, Cat.No. 08-045)
• JAK3 (Cama Bio, USA, Inc. Natick, MA, Cat.No. 08-046)
• TYK2 (Cama Bio, USA, Inc. Natick, MA, Cat.No 08-147)
• Oclacitinib [HUIFEIChem(WuXi) PharmaTech Co. Ftd., Batch No.: D0228-W- 0814-1]
• % inhibition (maximum conversion)/(max-min)*100.
• max refers to the DMSO control and “min” stands for low control.
• the peptide substrates used for each kinase, peptide concentration, enzyme concentration, and ATP concentrations are presented in TABLE 2.
• Oclacitinib, Tofacitinib, and Filgotinib were used as reference compounds.
• Oclacitinib has similar activity for JAK1 and JAK2, Tofacitinib inhibited JAK1, JAK2, and JAK 3 similarly, and Filgotinib exhibited selectivity for JAK1 and JAK2 over JAK3.
• JAK1/JAK2 selectivity of the reference compounds, only Oclacitinib showed selectivity for JAK1/JAK2 (i.e., 45%). Tofacitinib and Filgotinib were not selective for JAK1/JAK2.
• Compounds 1-6 exhibited superior selectivity for JAK1 over JAK2 (i.e., 87%, 2.9-fold, 3.7-fold, 3.35-fold, 2.4-fold, and 6-fold, respectively).
• JAK1/JAK3 selectivity of the reference compounds, Oclacitinib and Filgotinib showed selectivity for JAK1 over JAK3 (i.e., 10.6-fold and 21- fold, respectively), whereas Tofacitinib demonstrated selectivity of JAK3 over JAK1.
• microsomal spiking solutions were cooled on ice. Assay plates with wells designated for different time points (0, 5, 15, 30 and 45 minutes) were cooled on ice. 30 pL of each microsomal spiking solution was added to the wells designated for different time points (0, 5, 15, 30 and 45 minutes). 135 uL of ACN containing IS was added to the wells of the plate labelled 0 minutes followed by 15 uL of the NaDPH stock solution (6 mM NaDPH in 0.1 M Potassium Phosphate buffer, 1.0 mM EDTA, pH 7.4). The plates for 5, 15, 30 and 45 minutes were incubated at 37 °C for 5 minutes.
