Abstract: A series of 2-amino-N-benzylpyridine-3-carboxnamides, 2-amino-N-benzylpyridine-3-sulfonamides and 2-amino-3-benzylthiopyridines against c-Met were designed by means of bioisosteric replacement and docking analysis. Optimization of the 2-amino-3-benzylthiopyridine scaffold led to the identification of compound (R)-10b displaying c-Met inhibition with an IC50 up to 7.7nM. In the cytotoxic evaluation, compound (R)-10b effectively inhibited the proliferation of c-Met addictive human cancer cell lines (IC50 from 0.19 to 0.71μM) and c-Met activation-mediated cell metastasis. At a dose of 100mg/Kg, (R)-10b evidently inhibited tumor growth (45%) in NIH-3T3/TPR-Met xenograft model. Of note, (R)-10b could overcome c-Met-activation mediated gefitinib-resistance, which indicated its potential use for drug combination. Taken together, 2-amino-3-benzylthiopyridine scaffold was first disclosed and exhibited promising pharmacological profiles against c-Met, which left room for further exploration.
