Abstract
The design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of N-(2-aminophenyl)-4-[(4-pyridin-3-ylpyrimidin-2-ylamino)methyl]benzamide 8 (MGCD0103) is described. Compound 8 is an isotype-selective small molecule histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor that selectively inhibits HDACs 1-3 and 11 at submicromolar concentrations in vitro. 8 blocks cancer cell proliferation and induces histone acetylation, p21 (cip/waf1) protein expression, cell-cycle arrest, and apoptosis. 8 is orally bioavailable, has significant antitumor activity in vivo, has entered clinical trials, and shows promise as an anticancer drug.Entities:
