Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular receptor tyrosine kinase subtype A2 (EphA2) is an attractive therapeutic target for suppressing tumor progression. In our efforts to discover novel small molecules to inhibit EphA2, a class of compound based on 4-substituted quinazoline containing 7-(morpholin-2-ylmethoxy) group was identified as a novel hit by high throughput screening campaign. Structural modification of parent quinazoline scaffolds by introducing substituents on aniline displayed potent inhibitory activities toward EphA2.
