RESUMO
Many patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) initially benefit from epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) targeted therapy. Unfortunately, varying degrees of resistance or side effects eventually develop. Overcoming and preventing the resistance and side effects of EGFR inhibitors has become a hot topic of research today. Based on the previous studies on AZD-9291, we designed and synthesized two series of 2,4-dichloro-6-methylpyrimidine derivatives, 19 compounds in total, as potential inhibitors of the EGFR kinase. The most promising compound, L-18, showed better inhibitory activity (81.9%) and selectivity against EGFRT790M/L858R kinase. In addition, L-18 showed strong antiproliferative activity against H1975 cells with an IC50 value of 0.65 ± 0.06 µM and no toxicity to normal cells (LO-2). L-18 was able to dose-dependently induce the apoptosis of H1975 cells and produced a cell-cycle-blocking effect, and it can also dose-dependently inhibit the migration and invasion of H1975 cells. L-18 also showed in vivo anticancer efficacy in H1975 cells xenograft mice. We also performed a series of in vivo and in vitro toxicological evaluations of compound L-18, which did not cause obvious injury in mice during administration. These results suggest that L-18 may be a promising drug candidate that warrants further investigation.

OBJECTIVE: To develop a HPLC method for the determination of plasma concentration of oridonin (ORI) and study the pharmacokinetics of ORI in mice. METHOD: Blood was sampled from mice which were injected ORI by 10 mg x kg(-1) at different time intervals, and the concentration of ORI was determined by HPLC. The pharmacokinetic parameters were accessed by 3P97. RESULT: The calibration curve was linear (r = 0.998 7) within the range of 0.202-20.0 mg x L(-1) for ORI in plasma. The average recoveries were more than 93%. The within-day and between-day precisions were no more than 9%. After i.v. oridonin in mice, the plasma concentration-time course fitted well to two-compartment model. The pharmacokinetic equation was C = 16.192 5e(-0.554 6t) + 5.475 7e(-0.016 3t). The pharmacokinetic parameters were below: t1/2alpha 1.249 9 min, t1/2beta 42.638 4 min, K21 0.152 3 min(-1), K12 0.359 3 min(-1), K10 0.0592 min(-1), AUC 366.035 0 microg x min x mL(-1), CL 0.0273 L x min(-1) x kg(-1), V(c)0.461 5 L x kg(-1). CONCLUSION: The method can be used to determine the concentration and to investigate the pharmacokinetics of ORI in mice. ORI was absorbed and distributed very fast in mice. The effect of ORI was rapid. The elimination was the main process.
