Inhibiting VEGFR-2 has been set up as a therapeutic strategy for treatment of cancer. Thus, nineteen new quinazoline-4(3H)-one derivatives were designed and synthesized. Preliminary cytotoxicity studies of the synthesized compounds were evaluated against three human cancer cell lines (HepG-2, MCF-7 and HCT-116) using MTT assay method. Doxorubicin and sorafenib were used as positive controls. Five compounds were found to have promising cytotoxic activities against all cell lines. Compound 16f, containing a 2-chloro-5-nitrophenyl group, has emerged as the most active member. It was approximately 4.39-, 5.73- and 1.96-fold more active than doxorubicin and 3.88-, 5.59- and 1.84-fold more active than sorafenib against HepG2, HCT-116 and MCF-7 cells, respectively. The most active cytotoxic agents were further evaluated in vitro for their VEGFR-2 inhibitory activities. The results of in vitro VEGFR-2 inhibition were consistent with that of the cytotoxicity data. Molecular docking of these compounds into the kinase domain, moreover, supported the results.

Sixteen novel quinazoline-based derivatives were designed and synthesized via modification of the VEGFR-2 reported inhibitor 7 in order to increase the binding affinity of the designed compounds to the receptor active site. The designed compounds were evaluated for their VEGFR-2 inhibitory effects. Inhibiting VEGFR-2 has been set up as a therapeutic strategy for treatment of cancer. The bioactivity of the new compounds was performed against HepG-2, MCF-7 and HCT-116 cell lines. Doxorubicin and sorafenib were used as positive controls. Compound 18d was observed to have promising cytotoxic activity (IC50 = 3.74 ± 0.14, 5.00 ± 0.20 and 6.77 ± 0.27 μM) in comparison to the reference drug doxorubicin (IC50 = 8.28, 9.63 and 7.67 μM) and sorafenib (IC50 = 7.31, 9.40 and 7.21 μM). The most active compounds were tested for their in vitro VEGFR-2 inhibitory activities. Results of VEGFR-2 inhibition were consistent with that of the cytotoxicity data. Thus, compound 18d showed VEGFR-2 inhibitory activity (IC50 = 0.340 ± 0.04 μM) superior to that of the reference drug, sorafenib (IC50 = 0.588 ± 0.06 μM). Furthermore, docking study was performed in order to understand the binding pattern of the new compounds into VEGFR-2 active site. Docking results attributed the potent VEGFR-2 inhibitory effect of the new compounds as they bound to the key amino acids in the active site, Glu883 and Asp1044, as well as their hydrophobic interaction with the receptor hydrophobic pocket. Results of cytotoxic activities, in vitro VEGFR-2 inhibition together with docking study argument the advantages of the synthesized analogues as promising anti-angiogenic agents.
