Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel quinazoline derivatives as immune checkpoint inhibitors

Chúng tôi vui mừng thông báo rằng TS. Ngô Sơn Tùng và các đồng nghiệp gần đây đã xuất bản công trình của họ có tựa đề "Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel quinazoline derivatives as immune checkpoint inhibitors" trên tạp chí Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters.

Tóm tắt:

In this work, we report 14 novel quinazoline derivatives as immune checkpoint inhibitors, IDO1 and PD-L1. The antitumor screening of synthesized compounds on ovarian cancer cells indicated that compound V-d and V-l showed the most activity with IC₅₀ values of about 5 μM. Intriguingly, compound V-d emerges as a stand out, triggering cell death through caspase-dependent and caspase-independent manners. More importantly, V-d presents its ability to hinder tumor sphere formation and re-sensitized cisplatin-resistant A2780 cells to cisplatin treatment. These findings suggest that compound V-d emerges as a promising lead candidate for the future development of immuno anticancer agents.
