Carbazole-containing quinazoline derivative with anti-tumor activity and pharmaceutical application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of medical chemistry, and particularly relates to a carbazole-containing quinazoline derivative and pharmaceutical application thereof.
Background
Tumors belong to one of the important diseases which harm human health nowadays, according to statistics of international agency for research on cancer (IARC), about 1410 ten thousands of new cancer cases are added in 2012 worldwide, and the number of cancer deaths reaches 820 thousands, so that obtaining of high-efficiency, low-toxicity and specific anti-tumor drugs is still a hot spot of global research.
Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) is a tyrosine kinase receptor that has been extensively studied, and many EGFR signaling abnormalities, including lung, breast and uterine cancers, are found in human tumor cells. By genetic immunochemical testing, results indicate that high levels of EGFR are found on the cell membrane of many types of epithelial malignancies such as head and neck, ovarian, uterine, bladder and esophageal cancers. Therefore, EGFR is an important target for tumor drug research.
In the study of drugs targeting EGFR, small molecule inhibitors have been intensively studied and approved for the treatment of breast cancer, skin cancer, lung cancer, and the like. Such inhibitors include gefitinib, erlotinib and the like (for example, patent CN03108814.7, US5616582 and the like), and such tinib drugs basically take quinazoline as a parent nucleus.
Quinazoline is a very important nitrogen-containing heterocycle, which shows good biological activity in the aspects of pesticides, medicines and the like, and becomes one of the hot spots for the research of scholars in the chemical and biological industries. In particular to the field of antitumor drugs, gefitinib, lapatinib, erlotinib and the like are available on the market.
However, with the long-term use of the marketed drugs, the marketed drugs also show many disadvantages, such as large toxic and side effects, drug resistance, and the like, so that the field of antitumor drugs continuously requires the emergence of new antitumor drugs to replace the original drugs.
Carbazole is a very important nitrogen-containing heterocycle, wherein photoelectric materials, medicines, dyes and the like have wide potential application prospects, but at present, no report is available about the application of carbazole and quinazoline in antitumor drugs after the carbazole and quinazoline are connected.
The inventor tries to use groups/substituents which are greatly different from the existing drugs for structural modification on the basis of the common parent nucleus of the existing tinib drugs (namely quinazoline) so as to obtain a high-efficiency, low-toxicity and specific compound. In particular, carbazole and benzyloxy are introduced into the quinazoline parent nucleus in a combined design, and the in-vitro anti-tumor activity of the quinazoline parent nucleus is measured.
