Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2017 Dec 1;27(23):5332-5336. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2017.09.050. Epub 2017 Oct 16.

Abstract

The discovery of a class of diheteroaromatic amines based on LY2835219 as cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK1/4/6) inhibitors was described. The series was found to have much more improved CDK1 inhibition and potent in vitro anti-proliferative effects against cancer cell lines. The synthesis and structure-activity relationship studies of these compounds were reported. One promising compound was selected to evaluate as a novel lead compound after in vitro and in vivo profiling.

Keywords: CDK inhibitor; Cyclin-dependent kinase; In vitro and in vivo profiling; Structure-activity relationship.
