• BGB-10188 is a novel PI3Kδ inhibitor with high selectivity and potency and showed long-lasting and strong target inhibition activities in vivo. • BGB-10188 showed significant anti-tumor effects in malignant B cell xenograft models as a monotherapy or in combination of zanubrutinib. • BGB-10188 showed significant Treg inhibition in blood but not in colon, along with less drug accumulation in colon compared with idelalisib. PI3Kδ is a key signal transduction molecule in normal and malignant B cells, as well as in T-regulatory cells, making it a promising target for treatment of hematologic malignancies through both direct killing and anti-tumor immunity regulation. BGB-10188 is a highly selective inhibitor of PI3Kδ, showing more than 3000 folds selectivity over other PI3K isoforms and no significant inhibition across tested kinases. BGB-10188 potently inhibited PI3Kδ with IC 50 s ranging from 1.7-16 nM through various in vitro assays and showed a long-lasting and strong target inhibition in mouse B cells in vivo. BGB-10188 showed significant antitumor effects in human B cell lymphoma xenograft models as single agent or in combination with the BTK inhibitor zanubrutinib. BGB-10188 showed significant Treg inhibition in blood but not in colon, along with less drug accumulation in colon compared with idelalisib, which is an approved PI3Kdelta inhibitor with high incidence of gastrointestinal side effects in clinic. In summary, BGB-10188 is a novel PI3Kδ inhibitor with high selectivity, potency and improved safety profile shown in preclinical studies, which is showing the potential as a best-in-class PI3Kδ inhibitor.
