Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive type of cancer characterized by higher metastatic and reoccurrence rates, where approximately one-third of TNBC patients suffer from the metastasis in the brain. At the same time, TNBC shows good responses to chemotherapy, a feature that fuels the search for novel compounds with therapeutic potential in this area. Recently, we have identified novel urea-based compounds with cytotoxicity against selected cell lines and with the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier in vivo. We have synthesized and analyzed a library of more than 40 compounds to elucidate the key features responsible for the observed activity. We have also identified FGFR1 as a molecular target that is affected by the presence of these compounds, confirming our data using in silico model. Overall, we envision that these compounds can be further developed for the potential treatment of metastatic breast cancer.

A novel series of 4-(4-formamidophenylamino)-N-methylpicolinamide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated against different tumor cell lines. Experiments in vitro showed that these derivatives could inhibit the proliferation of two kinds of human cancer cell lines (HepG2, HCT116) at low micromolar concentrations and the most potent analog 5q possessed broad-spectrum antiproliferative activity. Experiments in vivo demonstrated that 5q could effectively prolong the longevity of colon carcinoma-burdened mice and slow down the progression of cancer cells by suppression of angiogenesis and the induction of apoptosis and necrosis.

Parasitic roundworms (nematodes) are significant pathogens of humans and animals and cause substantive socioeconomic losses due to the diseases that they cause. The control of nematodes in livestock animals relies heavily on the use of anthelmintic drugs. However, their extensive use has led to a widespread problem of drug resistance in these worms. Thus, the discovery and development of novel chemical entities for the treatment of parasitic worms of humans and animals is needed. Herein, we describe our medicinal chemistry optimization efforts of a phenotypic hit against Haemonchus contortus based on a pyrrolidine-oxadiazole scaffold. This led to the identification of compounds with potent inhibitory activities (IC50 = 0.78–22.4 μM) on the motility and development of parasitic stages of H. contortus, and which were found to be highly selective in a mammalian cell counter-screen. These compounds could be used as suitable chemical tools for drug target identification or as lead compounds for further optimization.

Aurora Kinase B is a serine-threonine kinase known to be overexpressed in several cancers, with no inhibitors approved for clinical use. Herein, we present the discovery and optimization of a series of novel quinazoline-based Aurora Kinase B inhibitors. The lead inhibitor SP-96 shows sub-nanomolar potency in Aurora B enzymatic assays (IC50 = 0.316 ± 0.031 nM). We identified the important pharmacophore features resulting in selectivity against receptor tyrosine kinases. Particularly, SP-96 shows >2000 fold selectivity against FLT3 and KIT which is important for normal hematopoiesis. This could diminish the adverse effect of neutropenia reported in the clinical trials of the Aurora B inhibitor Barasertib, which inhibits FLT3 and KIT in addition to Aurora B. Enzyme kinetics of SP-96 shows non-ATP-competitive inhibition which makes it a first-in-class inhibitor. Further, SP-96 shows selective growth inhibition in NCI60 screening, including inhibition of MDA-MD-468, a Triple Negative Breast Cancer cell line.

An efficient route for the palladium-catalyzed reductive aminocarbonylation of olefins with nitroarenes was developed using carbon monoxide (CO) as both reductant and carbonyl source, which enables facile access to amides with excellent regioselectivity a

A novel structural series of tetrahydroisoquinoline-based compounds that incorporate the diaryl urea moiety was designed, synthesized, and biologically evaluated as suppressors of VEFGR-2 signaling. As a consequence, compounds 9k and 9s exhibited comparable or superior cytotoxic activity to that of gefitinib against the tested three cell lines, including A549, MCF-7, and PC-3. Importantly, both of them downregulated the expression of VEGFR-2, and inhibited VEGFR-2 phosphorylation at the concentration of 0.5 or 1.0 μmol/l. Besides, they suppressed human umbilical vein endothelial cell tube formation at the concentration of 4.0 μmol/l. Considering their capability of down-regulating VEGFR-2 expression and inhibiting VEGFR-2 phosphorylation, 9k and 9s may serve as suppressors of angiogenesis for further investigation.

Inspired by that the multi-target inhibitors against receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) have significantly improved the effect of clinical treatment for cancer, and based on the chemical structure of Linifanib (ABT-869, Abbott), two series of diaryl-ureas with novel isoxazol[3,4-b]pyridine-3-amino-structure were designed and synthesized as multi-target inhibitors against RTKs. The preliminary biological evaluation showed that several compounds exhibited comparable potency with Linifanib. Compound S21 was identified as the most potent inhibitor against Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT-3), kinase insert domain containing receptor (KDR) and platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFR-β) with its IC50 values were 4 nM, 3 nM and 8 nM respectively, it also showed potent inhibitory activities against several cancer cells.

Reported herein is the design, synthesis, and pharmacologic characterization of a class of TRPV1 antagonists constructed on a phenylquinoline platform that evolved from Cinchophen lead. This design composes three sections: a phenylquinoline headgroup attached to an aliphatic carboxamides, which is tethered at a phenyl tail group. Optimization of this design led to the identification of 37, comprising a pyrrolidine linker and a trifluoromethyl–phenyl tail. In the TRPV1 functional assay, using cells expressed hTRPV1, 37 antagonized capsaicin-induced Ca2+ influx, with an IC50 value of 10.2 nM. In the complete mice analgesic model, 37 exhibited better antinociceptive activity than the positive control BCTC in diverse pain models. All of these results suggested that 37 could be considered as a lead candidate for the further development of antinociceptive drugs.

VEGFR-2, TIE-2, and EphB4 are essential for both angiogenesis and tumorigenesis. Herein, we designed and prepared three classes of multi-target inhibitors based on the extensive sequence homology along the kinase domain of angiogenic RTKs. Biological evaluation indicated that these multi-target inhibitors exhibited considerable potential as novel anti-angiogeneic and anticancer agents. Among them, a diaryl thiourea bearing 1H-indazole-3-amine (16a) displayed the most potent RTK inhibition and excellent selectivity. It also showed inhibition on viability of human umbilical vein endothelial cells and anti-proliferation against a broad spectrum of cancer cells. Therefore, 1H-indazole-3-amine could serve as a promising hinge binding group for multi-target inhibitors of VEGFR-2, Tie-2, and EphB4.
