Popis: | Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) are one of the last frontiers in pharmaceutical research. Two HDACi are already part of armamentarium of the anticancer drugs of the oncologists: Vorinostat, Zolinza® (SAHA) and Romidepsin, Istodax® (depsipeptide; FK-228), both licensed by the FDA for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Beyond them, more than twenty new drugs are currently under pre-clinical and clinical investigation as single agent and in combination therapies against different cancers and in other several novel therapeutic indications. Mainly they are hydroxamic acids and benzamide derivatives; however none has emerged superior to SAHA in terms of potency. In our search, we have selected a new generation of HDACi: thiol-based SAHA bearing a lactam amide in ω-position. This new generation was highly competitive compared to competing drugs, displaying sub-micromolar to low nanomolar inhibitor activity on HDACs, being especially powerful on HDAC6 isoform. They exhibited higher anti-proliferative activity than SAHA on different human cell lines. In vivo they were orally administered and showed a higher potency than SAHA, with a negligible toxicity. The overall profile of this new class of HDAC inhibitors, including synthesis and a comprehensive pharmacological characterization, will be presented. These encouraging results prompted us to select a drug candidate which is currently in a phase of pre-clinical evaluation.
