Histone lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is an important epigenetic modulator, and is implicated in malignant transformation and tumor pathogenesis in different ways. Therefore, the inhibition of LSD1 provides an attractive therapeutic target for cancer therapy. Based on drug repurposing strategy, we screened our in-house chemical library toward LSD1, and found that the EGFR inhibitor erlotinib, an FDA-approved drug for lung cancer, possessed low potency against LSD1 (IC50 = 35.80 μM). Herein, we report our further medicinal chemistry effort to obtain a highly water-soluble erlotinib analog 5k (>100 mg/mL) with significantly enhanced inhibitory activity against LSD1 (IC50 = 0.69 μM) as well as higher specificity. In MGC-803 cells, 5k suppressed the demethylation of LSD1, indicating its cellular activity against the enzyme. In addition, 5k had a remarkable capacity to inhibit colony formation, suppress migration and induce apoptosis of MGC803 cells. Furthermore, in MGC-803 xenograft mouse model, 5k treatment resulted in significant reduction in tumor size by 81.6% and 96.1% at dosages of 40 and 80 mg/kg/d, respectively. Our findings indicate that erlotinib-based analogs provide a novel structural set of LSD1 inhibitors with potential for further investigation, and may serve as novel candidates for the treatment of LSD1-overexpressing cancers.

As a privileged scaffold, the quinazoline ring is widely used in the development of EGFR inhibitors, while few quinazoline-based MET inhibitors are reported. In our ongoing efforts to develop new MET-targeted anticancer drug candidates, a series of quinaz

EGFR and VEGFR-2 are involved in pathological disorders and the progression of different kinds of tumors, the combined blockade of EGFR and VEGFR signaling pathways appears to be an attractive approach to cancer therapy. In this work, a series of 4-anilinoquinazoline derivatives containing substituted diaryl urea or glycine methyl ester moiety were designed and identified as EGFR and VEGFR-2 dual inhibitors. Compounds 19i, 19j and 19l exhibited the most potent inhibitory activities against EGFR (IC50?=?1?nM, 78?nM and 51?nM, respectively) and VEGFR-2 (IC50?=?79?nM, 14?nM and 14?nM, respectively), they showed good antiproliferative activities as well. Molecular docking established the interaction of 19i with the DFG-out conformation of VEGFR-2, suggesting that they might be type II kinase inhibitors.
