Abstract: Analogues of the clinical compound MGCD0103 (A) were designed and synthesized. These compounds inhibit recombinant human HDAC1 with IC(50) values in the sub-micromolar range. In human cancer cells growing in culture these compounds induce hyperacetylation of histones, cause expression of the tumor suppressor protein p21(WAF1/CIP1), and inhibit cellular proliferation. Lead molecule of the series, compound 25 is metabolically stable, possesses favorable pharmacokinetic characteristics and is orally active in vivo in different mouse tumor xenograft models.
