A diverse series of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles based substituted compounds were designed, synthesized and evaluated as anticancer agents targeting carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX). Initial structure-activity analysis suggested that the thiazole/thiophene-sulfonamide conjugates of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles exhibited potent anticancer activities with low μM potencies. Compound OX12 exhibited antiproliferative activity (IC50 = 11.1 μM) along with appreciable inhibition potential for tumor-associated CAIX (IC50 = 4.23 μM) isoform. Therefore, OX12 was structurally optimized and its SAR oriented derivatives (OX17-27) were synthesized and evaluated. This iteration resulted in compound OX27 with an almost two-fold increase in antiproliferative effect (IC50 = 6.0 μM) comparable to the clinical drug doxorubicin and significantly higher potency against CAIX (IC50 = 0.74 μM). Additionally, OX27 treatment decreases the expression of CAIX, induces apoptosis and ROS production, inhibited colony formation and migration of colon cancer cells. Our studies provide preclinical rational for the further optimization of identified OX27 as a suitable lead for the possible treatment of CRC.

We report the molecular design and synthesis of EG00229,2, the first small molecule ligand for the VEGF-A receptor neuropilin 1 (NRPl) and the structural characterization of NRPl-ligand complexes by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Mutagenesis studies localized VEGF-A binding in the NRPl bl domain and a peptide fragment of VEGF-A was shown to bind at the same site by NMR, providing the basis for small molecule design. Compound 2 demonstrated inhibition of VEGF-A binding to NRPl and attenuated VEGFR2 phosphorylation in endothelial cells. Inhibition of migration of endothelial cells was also observed. The viability of A549 lung carcinoma cells was reduced by 2, and it increased the potency of the cytotoxic agents paclitaxel and 5-fluorouracil when given in combination. These studies provide the basis for design of specific small molecule inhibitors of ligand binding to NRP1.
