Discovery of 4,6-pyrimidinediamine derivatives as novel dual EGFR/FGFR inhibitors aimed EGFR/FGFR1-positive NSCLC

摘要

FGF2-FGFR1 autocrine pathway activation reduces the sensitivity of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells to EGFR inhibitors like Gefitinib. Therefore, dual-specific drugs targeting EGFR and FGFR with high selectivity and activity are required. Through structure analysis of excellent EGFR inhibitors and FGFR inhibitors, we designed and synthesized 33 4,6-pyrimidinediamine derivatives as dual EGFR and FGFR inhibitors and selected BZF 2 as a potential EGFR and FGFR inhibitor after initial cell screening. Then, through kinase testing and western blot analysis, BZF 2 was defined as a dual EGFR and FGFR inhibitor with high selectivity (l)and activity. Biological evaluation of NSCLC cell lines with the FGF2-FGFR1 autocrine loop indicated that BZF 2 significantly inhibited cell proliferation (IC50 values for H226 and HCC827 GR were 2.11 mu M, and 0.93 mu M, respectively), cell migration, and induced cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. Anti-tumor activity test in vivo showed that BZF 2 obviously shrank tumor size. Therefore, BZF 2 is a highly selective and potent dual EGFR/FGFR compound with promising therapeutic effects against EGFR/FGFR1-positive NSCLC. (C) 2019 Published by Elsevier Masson SAS.
