Popis: | In our continuing search for medicinal agents to treat proliferative diseases, quinazoline derivatives were synthesized and evaluated pharmacologically as epithelial growth factor receptor and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2) tyrosine kinase inhibitors. A quantitative structure-activity relationship analysis was conducted to rationalize the structure-activity relationship and to predict how similar the inhibitor-binding profiles of two protein kinases are likely to be on the basis of the docking of lead coumpounds into the ATP-binding site. This model was used to direct the synthesis of new compounds. A series of N-(aromatic)-N'-{4-[(6,7-dimethoxyquinazolin-4-yl)oxy]phenyl}urea were identified as potent and selective inhibitors of the tyrosine kinase activity of VEGFR-2 (fetal liver kinase 1, kinase insert domain-containing receptor). An efficient route was developed that enabled the synthesis of a wide variety of analogues with substitution on several positions of the template. Substitution of diarylurea, competitive with ATP, afforded several analogues with low nanomolar inhibition of enzymatic activity of VEGFR-2. In this paper, we describe the synthesis, structure-activity relationships, and pharmacological characterization of the series. |
