A good balance between hydrophilicity and lipophilicity is a prerequisite for all bioactive compounds. If the hydrophilicity of a compound is low, its solubility in water will be meager. Many drug development failures have been attributed to poor aqueous solubility. ABCG2 inhibitors are especially prone to be insoluble since they have to address the extremely large and hydrophobic multidrug binding site in ABCG2. For instance, our previous, tariquidar-related ABCG2 inhibitor UR-MB108 (1) showed high potency (79 nM), but very low aqueous solubility (78 nM). To discover novel potent ABCG2 inhibitors with improved solubility we pursued a fragment-based approach. Substructures of 1 were optimized and the fragments ‘enlarged’ to obtain inhibitors, supported by molecular docking studies. Synthesis was achieved, i.a., via Sonogashira coupling, click chemistry and amide coupling. A kinetic solubility assay revealed that 1 and most novel inhibitors did not precipitate during the short time period of the applied biological assays. The solubility of the compounds in aqueous media at equilibrium was investigated in a thermodynamic solubility assay, where UR-Ant116 (40), UR-Ant121 (41), UR-Ant131 (48) and UR-Ant132 (49) excelled with solubilities between 1 μM and 1.5 μM – an up to 19-fold improvement compared to 1. Moreover, these novel N-phenyl-chromone-2-carboxamides inhibited ABCG2 in a Hoechst 33342 transport assay with potencies in the low three-digit nanomolar range, reversed MDR in cancer cells, were non-toxic and proved stable in blood plasma. All properties make them attractive candidates for in vitro assays requiring long-term incubation and in vivo studies, both needing sufficient solubility at equilibrium. 41 and 49 were highly ABCG2-selective, a precondition for developing PET tracers. The triple ABCB1/C1/G2 inhibitor 40 qualifies for potential therapeutic applications, given the concerted role of the three transporter subtypes at many tissue barriers, e.g. the BBB.

Overexpression of ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters, including P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), is an important factor leading to multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer treatments. Three subclasses of dual inhibitors of P-gp and BCRP were designed based on the active moieties of BCRP inhibitors, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and P-gp inhibitors, of which compound 21 possessed low cytotoxicity, high reversal potency, and good lipid distribution coefficient. 21 also increased the accumulation of Adriamycin (ADM) and Mitoxantrone (MX), blocked Rh123 efflux, and made no change in the protein expression of P-gp and BCRP. Importantly, coadministration of 21 can significantly improve the oral bioavailability of paclitaxel (PTX). It was also demonstrated that 21 significantly inhibited the growth of K562/A02 xenograft tumors by increasing the sensitivity of ADM in vivo. In summary, 21 has the potential to overcome MDR caused by P-gp and BCRP and to improve the oral bioavailability of PTX.
