Sorafenib tosylate (SORt) is an oral multikinase inhibitor used for treatment of advanced renal cell, liver, and thyroid cancers. In this study, this drug was synthesized and its antiproliferative activities against HCT116 and CT26 cells were assessed. The interaction of SORt with β-lactoglobulin (BLG) was studied using different fluorescence techniques, circular dichroism (CD), zeta potential measurements, and docking simulation. The results of infrared (IR), mass, HNMR, and CNMR spectra demonstrated that the drug was produced with high quality, purity, and efficiency. SORt showed potent cytotoxicity against HCT116 and CT26 cells with IC50 of 8.12 and 5.42 μM, respectively. For BLG binding of SORt, the results showed that static quenching was the cause of the high affinity drug–protein interaction. Three-dimensional fluorescence and synchronous spectra indicated that SORt conformation was changed at different levels. CD suggested that the α-helix content remained almost constant in the BLG–SORt complex, whereas random coil content decreased. Zeta potential values of BLG were more positive after binding with SORt, due to electrostatic interactions between BLG and SORt. Thermodynamic parameters confirmed van der Waals and hydrogen bond interactions in the complex formation. Molecular modelling predicted the presence of hydrogen bonds and electrostatic forces in the BLG–SORt system, which was consistent with the experimental results.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive type of cancer characterized by higher metastatic and reoccurrence rates, where approximately one-third of TNBC patients suffer from the metastasis in the brain. At the same time, TNBC shows good responses to chemotherapy, a feature that fuels the search for novel compounds with therapeutic potential in this area. Recently, we have identified novel urea-based compounds with cytotoxicity against selected cell lines and with the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier in vivo. We have synthesized and analyzed a library of more than 40 compounds to elucidate the key features responsible for the observed activity. We have also identified FGFR1 as a molecular target that is affected by the presence of these compounds, confirming our data using in silico model. Overall, we envision that these compounds can be further developed for the potential treatment of metastatic breast cancer.

A novel series of 4-(4-formamidophenylamino)-N-methylpicolinamide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated against different tumor cell lines. Experiments in vitro showed that these derivatives could inhibit the proliferation of two kinds of human cancer cell lines (HepG2, HCT116) at low micromolar concentrations and the most potent analog 5q possessed broad-spectrum antiproliferative activity. Experiments in vivo demonstrated that 5q could effectively prolong the longevity of colon carcinoma-burdened mice and slow down the progression of cancer cells by suppression of angiogenesis and the induction of apoptosis and necrosis.
