A Novel Sulfonyl-Based Small Molecule Exhibiting Anti-cancer Properties
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Phenotypic screening is an ideal strategy for the discovery of novel bioactive molecules. Using a customized high-throughput screening (HTS) assay employing primary T lymphocytes, we screened a small library of 4 398 compounds with unknown biological function/target to identify compounds eliciting immunomodulatory properties and discovered a sulfonyl-containing hit, we named InhiTinib. This compound inhibited interferon (IFN)-gamma production and proliferation of primary CD3+ T cells without inducing cell death. In contrast, InhiTinib triggered apoptosis in several murine and human cancer cell lines. Besides, the compound was well tolerated by immunocompetent mice, triggered tumor regression in animals with pre-established EL4 T-cell lymphomas, and prolonged the overall survival of mice harboring advanced tumors. Altogether, our data demonstrate the anti-cancer properties of InhiTinib, which can henceforth bridge to wider-scale biochemical and clinical tests following further in-depth pharmacodynamic studies.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
