Synthesis and Structure−Activity Relationships of 6,7-Disubstituted 4-Anilinoquinoline-3-carbonitriles. The Design of an Orally Active, Irreversible Inhibitor of the Tyrosine Kinase Activity of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) and the Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-2 (HER-2)

TL;DR: A series of of 6,7-disubstituted-4-anilinoquinoline-3-carbonitrile derivatives that function as irreversible inhibitors of EGFR and HER-2 kinases have been prepared and one compound, 5, which shows excellent oral in vivo activity, was selected for further studies and is currently in phase I clinical trials for the treatment of cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
6-Substituted-4-(3-bromophenylamino)quinazolines as putative irreversible inhibitors of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER-2) tyrosine kinases with enhanced antitumor activity.
Hwei-Ru Tsou,Nellie Mamuya,Bernard Dean Johnson,Marvin F Reich,Brian C. Gruber,Fei Ye,Ramaswamy Nilakantan,Ru Shen,Carolyn Discafani,Ronald Deblanc,Rachel Davis,Frank E. Koehn,Lee M. Greenberger,Yu-Fen Wang,Allan Wissner +14 more
TL;DR: It is shown that attaching a basic functional group onto the Michael acceptor results in greater reactivity, due to intramolecular catalysis of the Michael addition and/or an inductive effect of the protonated basic group, which results in compounds with enhanced biological properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
4-Anilino-6,7-dialkoxyquinoline-3-carbonitrile inhibitors of epidermal growth factor receptor kinase and their bioisosteric relationship to the 4-anilino-6,7-dialkoxyquinazoline inhibitors.

TL;DR: 4-anilinoquinoline-3-carbonitriles are effective inhibitors of EGF-R kinase with activity comparable to the 4-anILinoquinazoline-based inhibitors.
