As a bioisosteric strategy to overcome the poor metabolic stability of lead compound KYS05090S, a series of new fluoro-substituted 3,4-dihydroquinazoline derivatives was prepared and evaluated for T-type calcium channel (Ca(v)3.2) block, cytotoxic effects and liver microsomal stability. Among them, compound 8h (KCP10068F) containing 4-fluorobenzyl amide and 4-cyclohexylphenyl ring potently blocked Ca(v)3.2 currents (>90% inhibition) at 10 mu M concentration and exhibited cytotoxic effect (IC50 = 5.9 mu M) in A549 non-small cell lung cancer cells that was comparable to KYS05090S. Furthermore, 8h showed approximately a 2-fold increase in liver metabolic stability in rat and human species compared to KYS05090S. Based on these overall results, 8h (KCP10068F) may therefore represent a good backup compound for KYS05090S for further biological investigations as novel cytotoxic agent. In addition, compound 8g (KCP10067F) was found to partially protect from inflammatory pain via a blockade of Ca(v)3.2 channels. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
