The present invention relates to novel compounds, their use as anti-cancer agents and their synthesis. In particular, the compounds contain cluster boron moieties such as carborane or a borohydride and act as inhibitors for the enzyme Nampt. The biological properties of the inventive cluster boron compounds, in terms of biological inhibition and antiproliferative effect, are greater than other small molecule inhibitors of Nampt.

Herein we report the use of carboranes to significantly increase the potency of small molecule inhibitors of nicotinamide phosphoribosyltranferase (Nampt), an enzyme that is central to metabolism and cell survival. We compare the inclusion of carborane with other similarly sized substituents and demonstrate that, compared with their purely organic counterparts, these molecules exhibit up to 10-fold greater antiproliferative activity against cancer cells in vitro and a 100-fold increase in Nampt inhibition.
