In this study, a series of novel N-(4-phenylthiazol-2-yl)-cinnamamide derivatives (7a–8n) were synthesized and evaluated for their anti-proliferative activities in vitro.
Compounds, compositions, and methods for modulation of Hec1/Nek2 interaction are provided. Especially preferred compounds disrupt Nek2/Hec1 binding and are therefore useful as chemotherapeutic agent for neoplastic diseases.

We have identified a novel structuralclass of protein serine/threonine kinase inhibitors comprised of an aminoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine nucleus. Compounds from this family are shown to potently inhibit cyclin-dependent kinases by competing with ATP for binding to a catalytic subunit of the protein. Structure-based design approach was used to direct this chemical scaffold toward generating potent and

A series of 4-aryl-N-arylcarbonyl-2-aminothiazoles of scaffold 4 was designed and synthesized as Hec1/Nek2 inhibitors. Structural optimization of 4 led to compound S 32 bearing C-4' 4-methoxyphenoxy and 4-(o-fluoropyridyl)-carbonyl groups that showed low nanomolar in vitro antiproliferative activity (IC50: 16.3-42.7 nM), high intravenous AUC (64.9 mu M.h, 2.0 mg/kg) in SD rats, and significant in vivo antitumor activity (T/C = 32%, 20 mg/kg, IV) in mice bearing human MDA-MB-231 xenografts. Cell responses resulting from Hec1/Nek2 inhibition were observed in cells treated with 32, including a reduced level of Hec1 coimmunoprecipitated with Nek2, degradation of Nek2, mitotic abnormalities, and apoptosis. Compound 32 showed selectivity toward cancer cells over normal phenotype cells and was inactive in a [H-3]astemizole competitive binding assay for hERG liability screening. Therefore, 32 is as a good lead toward the discovery of a preclinical candidate targeting Hec1/Nek2 interaction.
