Abstract

Inspired by that the multi-target inhibitors against Receptor Tyrosine Kinases (RTKs) have significantly improved the effect of clinical treatment for Cancer, and based on the chemical structure of Linifanib (ABT-869, Abbott), two series of diaryl-ureas with novel isoxazol[3,4-b]pyridine-3-amino-structure were designed and synthesized as multi-target inhibitors against RTKs. The preliminary biological evaluation showed that several compounds exhibited comparable potency with Linifanib. Compound S21 was identified as the most potent inhibitor against Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (Flt-3), kinase insert domain containing receptor (VEGFR2/KDR/Flk-1) and platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFR-β) with its IC50 values were 4 nM, 3 nM and 8 nM respectively, it also showed potent inhibitory activities against several Cancer cells.
