Abstract: A combination of focussed library and virtual screening, hit expansion and rational design has resulted in the development of a series of inhibitors of RETV804M kinase, the anticipated drug-resistant mutant of RET kinase. These agents do not inhibit the wild-type isoforms of RET or KDR and therefore offer a potential adjunct to RET inhibitors currently undergoing clinical evaluation.
