Fovinaciclib is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) types 4 (CDK4) and 6 (CDK6), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon administration, fovinaciclib selectively inhibits CDK4 and CDK6, which inhibits the phosphorylation of retinoblastoma protein (Rb) early in the G1 phase, prevents CDK-mediated G1/S transition and leads to cell cycle arrest. This suppresses DNA replication and decreases tumor cell proliferation. CDK4 and 6 are serine/threonine kinases that are upregulated in many tumor cell types and play key roles in the regulation of both cell cycle progression from the G1-phase into the S-phase and cell proliferation.
On May 29, 2025, China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) approved the Class 1 innovative drug Fovinaciclib (CDK4&6 inhibitor), developed by Jinzhou Aohong Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. This medication, in combination with fulvestrant, is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative recurrent or metastatic breast cancer, who have experienced disease progression following prior endocrine therapy.
Notably, Fovinaciclib represents an excellent example of scaffold hopping—its design replaces the pyrrolo-pyrimidine core of Ribociclib (first approved on March 13, 2017) with a thieno-pyrimidine ring.

To a solution of 7-cyclopentyl-N, N-dimethyl-2- ( (5- (4- (piperazin-1-yl) piperidin-1-yl) pyridin-2-yl) amino) thieno [3, 2-d] pyrimidine-6-carboxamide (4) (1.5 g, 2.8 mmol) in DCM (45 mL) was added NaBH (OAc) 3(3.56 mg, 16.8 mmol) followed by CH 2O (40%in water, 252 mg, 3.4 mmol) . The mixture was stirred at r.t. for 30 min. The mixture was diluted with saturated aqueous NaHCO 3(100 mL) and extracted with DCM (2 × 30 mL) . The extracts were dried over Na 2SO 4. Solvents were evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel eluting with 96: 3: 1 DCM/methanol/ammonia to give 7-cyclopentyl-N, N-dimethyl-2- ( (5- (4- (4-methylpiperazin-1-yl) piperidin-1-yl) pyridin-2-yl) amino) thieno [3, 2-d] pyrimidine-6-carboxamide (5) .
