A series of new, water-soluble phenyl N-mustard-benzenealkylamide conjugates containing hydrophilic ω-dialkylaminoalkylamide or ω-cyclic aminoalkylamide moieties were synthesized via a bioisostere approach. These compounds have a broad spectrum of antitumor activity against a panel of human tumor cell lines. Of these derivatives, compound 18b effectively suppressed the growth of colon cancer (HCT-116), prostate cancer (PC3), and lung cancer (H460) xenografts. The growth of HCT-116 xenografts was almost completely suppressed when co-treated with compound 18b and 5-fluorouracil. Furthermore, compound 18b can induce DNA cross-linking and cell-cycle arrest at the G2/M phase. Early preclinical studies, including pharmacokinetics in rats, inhibition of the hERG, and 14 days of acute intravenous injection toxicity, suggest that compound 18b is a promising candidate for further preclinical studies.

A series of 4,5-di-substituted acridones have been designed and synthesized. Several compounds show high affinity for telomeric G-quadruplex DNA in classical and competition FRET assays, together with low duplex DNA affinity, although they do not show activity in a telomerase assay or evidence of telomere shortening. They have low toxicity against a panel of cancer cell lines and a normal human fibroblast line, and produce potent senescence-based long-term growth arrest in the MCF7 and A549 cancer cell lines.

The design and synthesis of a series of urea-based nonpolycyclic aromatic ligands with alkylaminoanilino side chains as telomeric and genomic G-quadruplex DNA interacting agents are described. Their interactions with quadruplexes have been examined by means of fluorescent resonance energy transfer melting, circular dichroism, and surface plasmon resonance-based assays. These validate the design concept for such urea-based ligands and also show that they have significant selectivity over duplex DNA, as well as for particular G-quadruplexes. The ligand-quadruplex complexes were investigated by computational molecular modeling, providing further information on structure-activity relationships. Preliminary biological studies using short-term cell growth inhibition assays show that some of the ligands have cancer cell selectivity, although they appear to have low potency for intracellular telomeric G-quadruplex structures, suggesting that their cellular targets may be other, possibly oncogene-related quadruplexes.
