RESUMO
A series of 20 novel gefitinib derivatives incorporating the 1,2,3-triazole moiety were designed and synthesized. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their potential anticancer activity against EGFR wild-type human non-small cell lung cancer cells (NCI-H1299, A549) and human lung adenocarcinoma cells (NCI-H1437) as non-small cell lung cancer. In comparison to gefitinib, Initial biological assessments revealed that several compounds exhibited potent anti-proliferative activity against these cancer cell lines. Notably, compounds 7a and 7j demonstrated the most pronounced effects, with an IC50 value of 3.94 ± 0.17 µmol L-1 (NCI-H1299), 3.16 ± 0.11 µmol L-1 (A549), and 1.83 ± 0.13 µmol L-1 (NCI-H1437) for 7a, and an IC50 value of 3.84 ± 0.22 µmol L-1 (NCI-H1299), 3.86 ± 0.38 µmol L-1 (A549), and 1.69 ± 0.25 µmol L-1 (NCI-H1437) for 7j. These two compounds could inhibit the colony formation and migration ability of H1299 cells, and induce apoptosis in H1299 cells. Acute toxicity experiments on mice demonstrated that compound 7a exhibited low toxicity in mice. Based on these results, it is proposed that 7a and 7j could potentially be developed as novel drugs for the treatment of lung cancer.

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) has attracted much attention in the field of cancer immunotherapy as an immunomodulatory enzyme. To identify potential IDO1 inhibitors, a novel series of compounds with N,N-diphenylurea and triazole structures were synthesized. The designed compounds underwent organic synthesis, and subsequent enzymatic activity experiments targeting IDO1 confirmed their activity at the molecular level. These experiments provided validation for the efficacy of the designed compounds in inhibiting IDO1, compound 3g exhibited an IC50 value of 1.73 ± 0.97 µM. Further molecular docking study further explained the binding mode and reaction potential of compound 3g with IDO1. Our research has resulted in a series of novel IDO1 inhibitors, which is beneficial to the development of drugs targeting IDO1 in numerous cancer diseases.
