Abstract: An extension of our previously reported series of macrocyclic ortho-aminobenzamide Hsp90 inhibitors is reported. Addition of a second methyl group to the tether provided analogs that show increased potency in binding as well as cell-proliferation assays and, more importantly, are stable toward microsomes. We wish to disclose the discovery of a macrocycle which showed impressive biomarker activity 24-h post dosing and which demonstrated prolonged exposure in tumors. When studied in a lung cancer xenograft model, the compound demonstrated significant tumor size reduction.
