摘要:
Disclosed are compounds that are AGT inactivators that include a folate residue, e.g., a compound of formula (I), wherein X1, X2, R1, and R2 are as described herein. Also disclosed is a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of the invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Also disclosed are methods of enhancing the chemotherapeutic treatment of tumor cells and inactivating AGT in a tumor cell. The methods comprise, inter alia, administering a compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt of formula (I).
摘要:
Disclosed are prodrugs of inactivators of O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT). The prodrugs are cleavable by the β-glucuronidase enzyme, which is either administered to the patient or produced by necrotic tumor cells. The prodrugs are represented by the formula A-B-C, wherein A is a glucuronosyl residue linked through its 1-oxygen to the phenyl ring of B; B is a benzyloxycarbonyl group, optionally ring-substituted with one or more electron withdrawing groups; and C is an inactivator of AGT, e.g., a substituted or unsubstituted O6-benzylguanine or O6-benzyl-2′-deoxyguanosine, Also disclosed are additional inactivators of AGT, pharmaceutical compositions comprising an inactivator or prodrug and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and a method of use of the inactivator or prodrug in enhancing the chemotherapeutic treatment of tumor cells in a mammal, e.g., a human, with an antineoplastic alkylating agent that causes cytotoxic lesions at the O6-position of guanine.
摘要:
Disclosed are pteridine derivatives of formula (I): (I), wherein, for example, R1 and R2 are hydrogen, C1-C6 alkyl, carboxyl, formyl, C1-C6 hydroxyalkyl, C1-C6 carboxyalkyl, C1-C6 formyl alkyl, C1-C6 alkoxy, acyloxy, acyloxyalkyl wherein the alkyl is C1-C6, halogen, or hydroxy, or a group of formula II: (II); and R3 is (a) phenyl or (b) a cyclic group having at least one 5 or 6-membered heterocyclic ring, optionally with a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring fused thereto, wherein each heterocyclic ring has at least one hetero atom chosen from O, N, or S; or (c) a phenyl group or a cyclic group, the cyclic group optionally with a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring fused thereto, which is substituted with 1 to 5 substituents. Disclosed also are pharmaceutical compositions, a method of enhancing the chemotherapeutic effectiveness of cancer treatment agents, a method of deactivating the O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase enzyme, and a method of inhibiting the reaction of O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase enzyme with an alkylated DNA.
