BIOLOGICAL EXAMPLES

Example 33

(146) In vitro anticancer activity of 35 target compounds was tested by MTT assay.

(147) Cell lines to be tested: human hepatoma cell line (HepG2), human lung cancer cell line (A549), human prostate cancer cell line (DU145), human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7), human neuroblastoma cell line (SH-SY5Y), human gastric mucosal cell line (Ges-1) and human embryonic lung fibroblast cell line (CCC-HPF-1) (the cells to be tested were purchased from the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences).

(148) The cells in logarithmic growth phase were treated to prepare a single cell suspension, with the cell density adjusted, which was seeded in a 96-well cell culture plate. About 2×10.sup.3 cells were contained in 100 μL per well, and cultured in a cell incubator at 37° C., 5% CO.sub.2, and saturated humidity for 24 h. The used medium was aspirated and abandoned, and then 100 μL of the target compound in different concentrations (0.1 μM-100 μM) were added for drug treatment. Five duplicate wells were prepared for each concentration. The background blank well, negative control well and positive control well were also prepared. All the wells were placed in a cell culture incubator at 37° C., 5% CO.sub.2, saturated humidity for another 72 h. Then, each well was added with 10 μL of MTT solution (5 mg/mL) and incubated for another 4 h. After that, each well was added with 100 μL of 10% SDS-0.1% NH.sub.4Cl (10% SDS purchased from Beijing Mengyimei Biotechnology Co., Ltd.) solution, and incubated at 37° C. for 10 h in the dark. Then, the absorbance OD was measured at 570 nm using a microplate reader at a reference wavelength of 650 nm. Cell proliferation inhibition was calculated according to the following formula: % inhibition=(OD.sub.control−OD.sub.treat)(OD.sub.control−OD.sub.blank)×100. IC.sub.50 value, i.e., 50% proliferation inhibition concentration, was calculated by SPSS 16.0 software. Each group was performed at least three times in parallel.

(149) The inhibitory activities of 35 target compounds against tumor cell strains HepG2, A549, MCF-7, DU145 and SH-SY5Y were tested by MTT assay (Table 1). Some compounds with optimal antitumor activity were selected. Among them, compounds 3, 5 and 13 have strong specific inhibitory activity on A549; compound 17 has a strong specific inhibitory effect on MCF-7; compound 23 has a strong specific inhibitory effect on DU145; compound 11 has a strong specific inhibitory effect on SH—SY5Y; compounds 29, 31, 34, and 35 have a good inhibitory effect on proliferation of at least three of the five tumor cells; especially, compound 35 has high anticancer activity on all the five tumor cells.

(150) Experiment of Compound 35 Against Hepatocellular Carcinoma HepG2 In Vivo

(151) Biological evaluation of exemplary compound 35 shown in formula (I) of the present invention (the serial number is shown in Table 1) and its combination with regorafenib or sorafenib in the treatment of nude mice bearing HepG2 cancer

(152) Compound 35 is N-(4-((4-trifluoromethylphenyl) methoxy) phenyl)-6,7-(benzo-15-crown-5)-4-quinazolinamine.

(153) Its structural formula is as follows:

(154) ##STR00024##

(155) FIGS. 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 show the biological activity of exemplary compound 35 shown in formula (I) of the present invention in the treatment of nude mice bearing HepG2 cancer cells.

(156) FIG. 5 illustrates that compound 35, sorafenib and regorafenib can slow down the tumor growth with increasing drug dose during the treatment of nude mice bearing HepG2 cancer cells, but none of them can inhibit the tumor growing. The best therapeutic effect is to make the tumor stop growing; and even the best-effect drug regorafenib plays little role in reducing tumor size.

(157) As shown in FIG. 6, when the dosages of compound 35 and regorafenib are 40 mg/Kg, the weight loss of nude mice is similar, indicating that the toxicity thereof is roughly equivalent. When the dosage of sorafenib is 40 mg/Kg, the weight loss of nude mice is relatively slow, indicating that the toxicity is the lowest. However, when the dosage is 20 mg/Kg, the body weight of the mice treated with compound 35 is significantly increased, and is much higher than that of the group of blank and the groups treated with regorafenib and sorafenib, indicating that the toxicity of compound 35 of the present invention is lower than that of regorafenib and sorafenib.

(158) FIG. 7 shows that the therapeutic effect of compound 35 combined with regorafenib on HepG2 is significantly better at four different doses. The tumor volume is significantly reduced in nude mice bearing HepG2 cancer cells at four different doses. When the dose of each drug in the combination of compound 35 with regorafenib is 20 mg/Kg, the tumor volume is significantly reduced, and the mice are nearly cured (in fact, two of the five mice are cured on day 60, and the tumors of the other three are also very small). This therapeutic effect is far better than the therapeutic effect of regorafenib alone. The most important thing is that the condition of the nude mice in this case is far better than that treated with regorafenib alone at 40 mg/Kg, which indicates that the therapeutic effect of compound 35 combined with regorafenib is far better than that of regorafenib alone.

(159) FIG. 8 shows that the weight loss of nude mice bearing HepG2 cancer cells is relatively slow in the treatment with compound 35 combined with regorafenib at four different doses, which is not much different from that of blank nude mice. This shows that the therapeutic effect is improved, and the toxicity is not increased.

(160) FIG. 9 shows the therapeutic effect of compound 35 combined with sorafenib on HepG2 at four different doses. The compound 35 at a dose of 20 mg/Kg combined with sorafenib at a dose of 40 mg/Kg gives the best therapeutic effect and the tumor is almost cured on day 50. When compound 35 and sorafenib are used at 30 mg and 20 mg respectively, the tumor volume is also decreased.

(161) FIG. 10 shows the change in body weight of nude mice treated with compound 35 in combination with sorafenib. When the dosages of compound 35 and Sorafenib are (20 mg+20 mg) and (30 mg+20 mg), the weights of nude mice are close to that of blank nude mice, and their weights are increasing, indicating the low toxicity of this ratio. The toxicity for the dose of 20 mg+40 mg is similar to that of sorafenib alone. The effect of these drug combinations is better than that of the drugs alone. The weight loss is not significant, and the toxicity is accordingly reduced.

(165) Effect of compound 3 of Formula (I) of the present invention (as listed in Table 1) on cell cycle

(166) Experiment procedure: A549 cells in logarithmic growth phase (purchased from the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences) were seeded into 6-well cell culture plates, adjusted to 5×10.sup.5 cells per well, and cultured in an incubator at 37° C., 5% CO.sub.2, and saturated humidity for 24 h. The used medium was discarded. The cells were treated with the target compounds in different concentrations for 48 h, and grouped to an administration group and a control group (non-administered). The cells were digested with 0.25% trypsin to form a single cell suspension, centrifuged at 1500 r/min for 5 min. The supernatant was discarded, and the cells were collected. The cells were washed twice with precooled PBS buffer, centrifuged at 1500 r/min for 5 min, added to 5 mL of precooled 70% ethanol, and placed at 4° C. for at least 24 h. After centrifugation, the supernatant was discarded, and the cells were washed twice with PBS and collected by centrifugation. The cells were suspended in 400 μL PBS, added with 30 μL of RNaseA (purchased from Corning Inc., USA) at the concentrations from 1 mg/mL to 50 μg/mL, and incubated at 37° C. for 30 min. The centrifuge tube was then inserted into an ice bath to stop digestion. After the tube was cooled, 50 μL of PI staining solution (500 μg/mL) (purchased from Corning Inc., USA) was added to a final concentration of 50 μg/mL. The tube was immersed in an ice bath to perform straining in the dark for 30 min-40 min, filtered through a 300 mesh nylon mesh, and tested by flow cytometer (FACS Vantage SE: BD, USA).

The percentage of cells in G.sub.0/G.sub.1 phase increases from 83.71% to 90.08% as the concentration increases from 0 μM to 40 μM, and the difference between the groups is significant (P<0.05). That is, compound 3 can block A549 in G.sub.0/G.sub.1 phase.

(169) It can be seen that compounds of formula (I) provided by the present invention can kill tumor cells in G.sub.0/G.sub.1 phase, indicating that the target compounds of formula (I) provided by the present invention belongs to a targeted medicine.

(173) The results in FIG. 1 show that exemplary compound 3 of formula (I) of the present invention has a remarkable tumor inhibitory effect on nude mice bearing A549 cancer cells. When administered at the same dose (i.e., 45 mg/Kg), its inhibitory activity against A549 cancer cells was significantly higher than the epoch-making targeted medicine gefitinib (also known as Iressa, a positive control drug). Tumor was significant inhibited at concentrations up to 60 mg/Kg, and grew little or limitedly. In blank control group, tumor grew rapidly. FIG. 1 indicates that compound 3 has the potential to become a new drug in inhibiting the activity of A549 tumor, which is worthy of vigorous research and development.

(174) FIG. 2 illustrates that compound 3 is less toxic. The body weight of nude mice bearing A549 cancer cells administrated with compound 3 was roughly equivalent to that of the nude mice administrated with gefitinib, and the administration dose was also comparable. Compound 3 was more toxic than gefitinib at the beginning of the administration. With further administration, the effect of compound 3 on body weight of nude mice was significantly reduced, and the weight of nude mice was increased. Especially in the later stages of administration, the weight of the nude mice administrated with compound 3 was increased and even exceeded that of the gefitinib group. This is very rare and advantageous, because the impact of the administration on the host or the nude mouse itself will directly determine whether the development would be successful or not. The body weights were increased for both target compound 3 and gefitinib groups compared to the blank control during the treatment, and compound 3 was more advantageous than gefitinib as treatment time prolonged. It is especially important that the body weight was not decreased significantly when the concentration was increased to 60 mg/Kg. On the contrary, the body weight decrease was slowed down in the late stage of the treatment, and the body weight was almost equivalent to that of the blank control group. It was demonstrated that the drug has no significant toxicity at increased doses and it provides an important basis for the treatment with increased dose.

(175) Both FIGS. 1 and 2 above show that compound 3 is highly active and less toxic in the treatment of nude mice bearing A549 cancer cells. In particular, the ability to inhibit tumor growth was significantly increased when the concentration of compound 3 was increased to 60 mg/Kg, while the body weight did not decrease significantly. In the later stage, the body weight was almost equivalent to that of the blank mice, indicating that the drug at an increased dose was not significantly toxic, provided an important basis for the treatment with increased dose, and showed a very good development prospects.

(176) Biological evaluation of exemplary compound 23 (as listed in Table 1) of formula (I) of the present invention on nude mice bearing DU145 cancer cells

Compound 23: N-(3-((4-trifluoromethylphenyl)methoxy) phenyl)-6,7-(benzo-12-crown-4)-4-quinazolinamine

(177) Structural formula of N-(3-((4-trifluoromethylphenyl)methoxy) phenyl)-6,7-(benzo-12-crown-4)-4-quinazolinamine is as follows:

(178) ##STR00026##

(179) FIGS. 3 and 4 illustrates the experiment results for the nude mice bearing tumor (DU145) treated with compound 23 of formula (I) of the present invention.

(180) FIG. 3 shows that compound 23 has a significant antitumor effect on nude mice bearing DU145 cancer cells. Compound 23 administered at three different doses was able to inhibit the growth of DU145 cancer cells significantly. Especially after 50 days of treatment, the tumor in the blank control group was increased significantly, while the tumors treated with the target compound 23 at three different doses were inhibited well. When the dose was 80 mg/Kg and 160 mg/Kg, respectively, the tumors were no longer grown almost. Especially when the dose was 160 mg/Kg, the tumors were completely inhibited, almost without changes, and no drug resistance was shown. When the dose was 80 mg/Kg, the tumors were increased somewhat at the beginning, but in the later stage, the tumors were also stopped growing for a long time. The inhibitory effect of compound 23 was very significant when compared with the blank control. Therefore, the results of in vivo experiments demonstrate that compound 23 has the potential to develop a new prostate cancer drug for DU145.

(181) FIG. 4 illustrates that the toxicity of compound 23 is very low. During the treatment, except for the first two days, the body weights of the nude mice bearing DU145 cancer cells were not decreased but increased. This trend became significantly as the treatment time increased. The weights of the nude mice were even heavier than that of the blank control group (e.g., the body weights after treating for 50 days at a dose of 80 mg/Kg). Especially, when the nude mice were administered at a high dose of 160 mg/kg, no significant toxicity was observed. This is rare in current developed drugs. This also proves from another aspect that compound 23 among the compounds of formula (I) developed has low potential toxicity and high targeting. At present, the major defect of all clinical drugs for treating cancer is their high toxicity. Significant weight loss during treatment causes host to become thinner and die. Compound 23 of the present invention can significantly increase the body weight of the nude mice after 4 days of treatment, which is of great significance for supporting the successful development of compound 23 into a novel prostate cancer therapeutic drug.

(182) Combining the experiment results of FIGS. 3 and 4 above, it is shown that compound 23 has the potential to be successfully developed into an important targeted medicine for treating prostate cancer. The compound has highly activity, little toxicity and good resistance to drug resistance during the treatment of DU145 cancer cells in nude mice. In the past, the development of important targeted medicines for treating prostate cancer failed due to toxicity to the host and drug resistance. In vivo experiments for compound 23 have demonstrated risks in both aspects above decrease significantly. Therefore it is possible to develop targeted medicines for treating prostate cancer.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of the invention are intended to be included within the scope of the invention.
