Abstract: Lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) has emerged as an attractive target in the oncology field. In this paper, we present the identification of 2-((3-cyanopyridin-2-yl)thio)acetamide-containing compounds as LDHA inhibitors. The in vitro enzymatic assay suggested that inhibitor 9 had good inhibitory potency against LDHA with IC50 value as 1.24μM. Cytotoxicity assay showed that inhibitor 9 strongly inhibited the proliferation of cancer cell MG-63 (EC50=0.98μM). These findings indicated that inhibitor 9 could be employed as a lead for developing more potent LDHA inhibitor with anti-proliferative potency.
