Design, synthesis, and docking studies of phenylpicolinamide derivatives bearing 1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine moiety as c-Met inhibitors

Four series of phenylpicolinamide derivatives bearing 1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine moiety (12a-e, 13a-f, 14a-f and 15a-i) were designed, synthesized and evaluated for the IC50 values against three cancer cell lines (A549, PC-3 and MCF-7) and c-Met kinase. Five selected compounds (13b, 15b, 15d, 15e and 15f) were further evaluated for the activity against HepG2 and Hela cell lines. Eighteen of the compounds showed excellent cytotoxicity activity and selectivity with the IC50 valuables in single-digit μM to nanomole range. Seven of them are equal to more active than positive control Foretinib against one or more cell lines. The most promising compound 15f showed superior activity to Foretinib, with the IC50 values of 1.04 ± 0.11 μM, 0.02 ± 0.01 μM and 9.11 ± 0.55 μM against A549, PC-3 and MCF-7 cell lines, which were 0.62 to 19.5 times more active than Foretinib (IC50 values: 0.64 ± 0.26 μM, 0.39 ± 0.11 μM, 9.47 ± 0.22 μM), respectively. Structure-activity relationships (SARs) and docking studies indicated that replacement of quinoline nucleus of the previous active compounds with 1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine moiety maintained even improved the potent cytotoxic activity. The results suggested that the introduction of fluoro atoms to the aminophenoxy part of target compounds or the phenyl group of pyrimidine substituted on C-4 position was benefit for the activity.

Discovery of Novel Aryl Carboxamide Derivatives as Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1α Signaling Inhibitors with Potent Activities of Anticancer Metastasis

In order to discover novel hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) inhibitors for the cancer metastasis treatment, 68 new aryl carboxamide compounds were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory effect by dual luciferase-reporter assay. Based on five rounds of investigation on structure-activity relationships step by step, compound 30m was discovered as the most active inhibitor (IC50 = 0.32 μM) with no obvious cytotoxicity (CC50 > 50 μM). It effectively attenuated hypoxia-induced HIF-1α protein accumulation and reduced transcription of vascular epidermal growth factor in a dose-dependent manner, which was further demonstrated by its inhibitory potency on capillary-like tube formation, angiogenesis of zebrafish as well as cellular migration and invasion. Importantly, compound 30m exhibited antimetastatic potency in breast cancer lung metastasis in the mice model, indicating its promising therapeutic potential for prevention and treatment of tumor metastasis. These results definitely merit attention for further rational design of more efficient HIF-1 inhibitors in the future.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of phenylpicolinamide sorafenib derivatives as antitumor agents

Two series of phenylpicolinamide sorafenib derivatives (14a–k, 15a–k) were designed and synthesized. They were evaluated for IC50 values against three cancer cell lines (A549, Hela, and MCF-7) and VEGFR2/KDR, BRAF, and CRAF kinases. Fourteen target compounds showed moderate to excellent cytotoxicity activity against the different cancer cells with potency from the single-digit μM to nanomole range. What’s more, six of them were equal to more potent than sorafenib against one or more cell lines. Most of the compounds showed bad activity against VEGFR2/KDR, BRAF, or CRAF kinases. The most promising compound 15f showed strong antitumor activities against A549 and MCF-7 cell lines with IC50 values of 5.43 ± 0.74 and 0.62 ± 0.21 μM, which were 1.29–6.79-fold more active than sorafenib (6.53 ± 0.82, 4.21 ± 0.62 μM), respectively and it exhibited moderate IC50 (7.1 μM) than 14f (IC50 = 3.1 μM). Structure–activity relationships (SARs) and docking studies indicated that replacement of diarylurea of sorafenib with phenylpicolinamide moiety benefits to the activity. The position of aryl group and the substitutions of aryl group have a great influence on antitumor activity and selectivity. Small volume groups of aryl group such as (substituted) alkyl groups (–CH3, –CF3), halogen atoms (–F) were favorable to the cytotoxicity. Exact action mechanism of target compounds is not quite clear and further study will be carried out to identify the target in near future.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 8-morpholinoimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine derivatives bearing phenylpyridine/phenylpyrimidine-carboxamides

Herein we designed and synthesized three series of novel 8-morpholinoimidazo[1,2-a] pyrazine derivatives bearing phenylpyridine/phenylpyrimidine-carboxamides (compounds 12a-g, 13a-g and 14a-g). All the compounds were evaluated for their IC50 values against three cancer cell lines (A549, PC-3 and MCF-7). Most of the target compounds exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against the three cancer cell lines. Two selected compounds 14b, 14c were further tested for their activity against PI3Kα kinase, and the results indicated that compound 14c showed inhibitory activity against PI3Kα kinase with an IC50 value of 1.25 μM. Structure-activity relationships (SARs) and pharmacological results indicated that the replacement of the thiopyranopyrimidine with an imidazopyrazine was beneficial for the activity and the position of aryl group has a significant influence to the activity of these compounds. The compounds 13a-g in which an aryl group substituted at the C-4 position of the pyridine ring were more active than 12a-g substituted at the C-5 position. Moreover, the cytotoxicity of compounds 14a-g bearing phenylpyrimidine-carboxamides was better than that of the compounds 12a-g, 13a-g bearing phenylpyridine-carboxamides. Furthermore, the substituents on the benzene ring also had a significant impact on the cytotoxicity and the pharmacological results showed that electron donating groups were beneficial to the cytotoxicity.

Synthesis, biological evaluation and docking studies of sorafenib derivatives N-(3-fluoro-4-(pyridin-4-yloxy)phenyl)-4(5)-phenylpicolinamides

Background: Sorafenib is an important VEGFR2/KDR inhibitor which is widely used for the treatment of cancer. Objective: In this paper, two series of sorafenib analogues N-(3-fluoro-4-(pyridin-4-yloxy)phenyl)-4- phenylpicolinamides(13a-k) and N-(3-fluoro-4-(pyridin-4-yloxy)phenyl)-5-phenylpicolinamides (14a-k) were designed and synthesized. Methods: Their structures were confirmed by various analytical methods, such as 1 H and 13 C NMR, m.p., MS, HRMS. All of them were evaluated for IC50 values against three cancer cell lines (A549, PC-3 and MCF-7). Results: Eleven of the synthesized compounds showed moderate to excellent cytotoxicity activity against different cancer cells, whose potency from single-digit μM to nanomolar range. And five of them were equal to more potent than sorafenib against one or more cell lines. The most promising compound 14c showed excellent antitumor activities against PC-3 and MCF-7 cell lines with IC50 values of 2.62±1.07 μM and 1.14±0.92 μM, which were 1.15 to 2.75-fold more active than sorafenib (3.03±1.01 μM, 3.14±1.65 μM), respectively. Conclusion: Structure-activity relationships (SARs) and docking studies indicated that the replacement of diarylurea of sorafenib with phenylpicolinamide moiety benefited to the activity. The position of aryl group and the substituents of aryl group had a great influence on antitumor activity and selectivity. The aryl groups with the substitute of alkyl groups (-CH3), halogen atoms (-F,Cl) were favorable to the cytotoxicity. However, this series of compounds showed moderate activity against VEGFR2/KDR kinase. Mechanism of target compounds was not quite clear and further study will be carried out to identify the possible target.

Novel tetrahydropyrido[1,2-a]isoindolone derivatives (valmerins): Potent cyclin-dependent kinase/glycogen synthase kinase 3 inhibitors with antiproliferative activities and antitumor effects in human tumor xenografts

The development of CDK and GSK3 inhibitors has been regarded as a potential therapeutic approach, and a substantial number of diverse structures have been reported to inhibit CDKs and GSK-3β in recent years. Only a few molecules have gone through or are currently undergoing clinical trials as CDK and GSK inhibitors. In this paper, we prepared valmerins, a new family containing the tetrahydropyrido[1,2-a]isoindone core. The fused heterocycle was prepared with a straightforward synthesis that was functionalized by a (het)arylurea. Twelve valmerins inhibited the CDK5 and GSK3 with an IC50 100 nM. A semiquantitative kinase scoring was realized, and a cellular screening was done. At the end of our study, we investigated the in vivo potency of one valmerin. Mice exhibited good tolerance to our lead, which proved its efficacy and clearly blocked tumor growth. Valmerins appear also as good candidates for further development as anticancer agents.
