Freeman-Cook K, Hoffman R, Miller N, Almaden J, Chionis J, Zhang Q, et al.
Cancer Cell . 2021 Sep; 39(10):1404-1421.e11. PMID: 34520734
The CDK4/6 inhibitor, palbociclib (PAL), significantly improves progression-free survival in HR/HER2 breast cancer when combined with anti-hormonals. We sought to discover PAL resistance mechanisms in preclinical models and through analysis...

Linton M, Burke B, Johnson T, Ninkovic S, Gajiwala K, Richardson P, et al.
Bioorg Med Chem . 2015 May; 23(13):3408-13. PMID: 25963824
Incorporation of nitrogen is a common medicinal chemistry tactic to reduce logD values. Neighboring group participation influences logD, so the results are isomer dependent. The logD and logP differences observed...

Le P, Cheng H, Ninkovic S, Plewe M, Huang X, Wang H, et al.
Bioorg Med Chem Lett . 2012 Jul; 22(15):5098-103. PMID: 22749419
Lead optimization efforts that employed structure base drug design and physicochemical property based optimization leading to the discovery of a novel series of 4-methylpyrido pyrimidinone (MPP) are discussed. Synthesis and...

Wang F, Ninkovic S, Collins M, Moore C, Rheingold A, Yanovsky A
Acta Crystallogr Sect E Struct Rep Online . 2011 May; 66(Pt 8):o2021. PMID: 21588332
The crystal structure of the title compound, C(5)H(3)BrN(2)S, shows that bromination of 1H-thieno[2,3-d]imidazole with N-bromo-succinimide in acetonitrile occurs at position 5 of the bicyclic system. The mol-ecule is almost planar,...

Liu K, Bagrodia S, Bailey S, Cheng H, Chen H, Gao L, et al.
Bioorg Med Chem Lett . 2010 Sep; 20(20):6096-9. PMID: 20817449
Pteridinones were designed based on a non-selective kinase template. Because of the uniqueness of the PI3K and mTOR binding pockets, a methyl group was introduced to C-4 position of the...
