RESUMO
[reaction: see text] A convenient one-pot synthesis of 4-fluoroquinolinones that are active against KDR kinase is described. The mechanism of the reaction is believed to involve the formation of a quinone methide intermediate.
RESUMO
Cleavage of one of the four bridging units in the two new types of hemicarceplexes presented here is sufficient to effect immediate guest release into the chloroform solvent (shown schematically on the right). The thermal stability and photoactivity of these hemicarceplexes indicate that incarceration is potentially useful for the controlled delivery of drugs.
RESUMO
We have developed a series of novel potent ortho-substituted azole derivatives active against kinases VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2. Both specific and dual ATP-competitive inhibitors of VEGFR-2 were identified. Kinase activity and selectivity could be controlled by varying the arylamido substituents at the azole ring. The most specific molecule (17) displayed > 10-fold selectivity for VEGFR-2 over VEGFR-1. Compound activities in enzymatic and cell-based assays were in the range of activities for reported clinical and development candidates (IC50 < 100 nM), including Novartis' PTK787 (Vatalanib). High permeability of active compounds across the Caco-2 cell monolayer (> 30x10(-5) cm/min) is indicative of their potential for intestinal absorption upon oral administration.

Novel potent derivatives of phthalazine are described as an adenosine triphosphate-competitive inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factor receptors I and II. A number of compounds display vascular endothelial growth factor receptor II inhibitory activity reaching that of Vatalanib A (IC(50): < 50 nm) in an homogenous time-resolved fluorescence enzymatic assay.

A novel class of 1-(isoquinolin-5-yl)-4-arylamino-phthalazines is described as inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor II (VEGFR-2). Many compounds display VEGFR-2 inhibitory activity with an IC(50) as low as 0.017 microM in an HTRF enzymatic assay. The compounds also inhibit VEGFR-1, a related tyrosine kinase.

Oxadiazole derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit tubulin polymerization and to cause mitotic arrest in tumor cells. The most potent compounds inhibited tubulin polymerization at concentrations below 1 microM. Lead analogs caused mitotic arrest of A431 human epidermoid cells and cells derived from multi-drug resistant tumors (10, EC(50)=7.8 nM). Competition for the colchicine binding site and pharmacokinetic properties of selected potent compounds were also investigated and are reported herein, along with structure-activity relationships for this novel series of antimitotic agents.

A novel class of pyrimido[4,5-b]-1,4-benzoxazepines is described as inhibitors of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase. Two compounds display potent EGFR inhibitory activity of less than 1 microM in cellular phosphorylation assays (IC(50) 0.47-0.69 microM) and are highly selective against a small kinase panel. Such compounds demonstrate anti-EGFR activity within a class that is different from any known EGFR inhibitor scaffolds. They also provide a basis for the design of kinase inhibitors with the desired selectivity profile.

Novel tricyclic derivatives containing an oxazepine, thiazepine, or diazepine ring were studied for their EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitory activity. While the oxazepines were in general more potent than thiazepines, the diazepines displayed somewhat different structure-activity relationships. Moreover, the diazepines, in contrast to the oxazepines, showed appreciable inhibitory activity against the KDR tyrosine kinase. Furthermore, both oxazepines and diazepines demonstrated significant ability to inhibit autophosphorylation of EGFR in DiFi cells (generally, IC(50) values in the single-digit micromolar to submicromolar range).

A novel triazole-containing chemical series was shown to inhibit tubulin polymerization and cause cell cycle arrest in A431 cancer cells with EC(50) values in the single digit nanomolar range. Binding experiments demonstrated that representative active compounds of this class compete with colchicine for its binding site on tubulin. The syntheses and structure-activity relationship studies for the triazole derivatives are described herein.
