Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel EGFR/HER2 dual inhibitors bearing a oxazolo[4,5-g]quinazolin-2(1H)-one scaffold

摘要

For the purpose of developing novel EGFR/HER2 tyrosine kinases inhibitors with high inhibition activity and low toxicity, two novel series of oxazolo[4,5-g]quinazolin-2(1H)-one derivatives as EGFR/HER2 dual inhibitors introducing two electrophiles 2-(2-bromoacetyl)ethyl and 2-(2-chloroacetoxy)ethyl group as side-chain at 1-position respectively and evaluated their EGFR and HER2 inhibition activity and toxicity comparing with Lapatinib. All these compounds were evaluated by EGFR and HER2 kinase inhibition and two anti-proliferation assays in vitro. Most of the designed compounds exhibited moderate to high inhibition activity against EGFR and HER2. Especially, compounds 110, 11p, 12e and 12f presented high inhibition against EGFR and HER2. Furthermore, compounds 11p and 12f also had well exhibition to excellent anti-proliferation activity against human lung adenocarcinoma cell line (A549) and human breast cancer cell line (SK-Br3), and 12f also exhibited the lowest toxicity against human embryonic lung fibroblast cell line (HELF) cell. Finally, compound 12f presented remarkably higher inhibition efficacy towards tumour growth than Lapatinib in a mouse lewis lung cancer (LLC) xenograft model. (C) 2016 Elsevier Masson SAS.
