Solution Overview

Problem

Current therapies for treating diseases characterized by aberrant c-KIT pathway signaling, such as cancer, inflammatory, and autoimmune diseases, lack effective inhibitors of c-KIT kinase activity.

Innovation Solution

Development of compounds with specific structures, such as those of Formula (I), which act as inhibitors of c-KIT kinase, and their formulation into pharmaceutical compositions for administration to patients.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If current therapies are used for treating diseases with aberrant c-KIT pathway signaling, then treatment is provided, but effective inhibition of c-KIT kinase activity is not achieved

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetherapeutic effectivenessVSAvoidc-KIT kinase inhibition capability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by modifying molecular structure parameters to create compounds with optimized c-KIT inhibition activity. The compounds of Formula (I) feature specific structural parameters including a 5-membered nitrogen-containing heteroaryl ring (Ring A), a 9- or 10-membered bicyclic nitrogen-containing heteroaryl ring (Ring B), and specific substituent patterns (R1-R5) that are tuned to achieve effective c-KIT kinase inhibition, thereby resolving the contradiction between therapeutic effectiveness and c-KIT inhibition capability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies segmentation by dividing the inhibitor molecule into distinct functional segments: Ring A (5-membered nitrogen-containing heteroaryl), Ring B (9- or 10-membered bicyclic nitrogen-containing heteroaryl), and substituent groups (R1-R5). This segmented molecular architecture allows each component to contribute specifically to c-KIT binding and inhibition, enabling reliable therapeutic effectiveness through targeted kinase activity suppression

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Adaptability or versatility

If compounds of Formula (I) are developed to inhibit c-KIT kinase, then c-KIT kinase activity is effectively inhibited, but new pharmaceutical compositions and methods must be created

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvec-KIT kinase inhibition capabilityVSAvoidpharmaceutical composition complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies universality by creating a broad pharmaceutical composition system that can address multiple diseases characterized by aberrant c-KIT pathway signaling. The compounds of Formula (I) serve as universal c-KIT inhibitors applicable to various conditions including cancer, inflammatory diseases, and autoimmune disorders, thereby achieving effective kinase inhibition without proportionally increasing pharmaceutical composition complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
