Introduction: A series of benzylidene derivatives of fenobam and its thio analogues (1-22) have been evaluated for their cytotoxicity against breast cancer (MCF-7, MDA-MB-231), ovarian cancer (A2780, SKOV-3) and cervical cancer (HELA) cell lines.

Method: These compounds (1-22) exhibited 72-83% inhibition of Erk activity against the ovarian cancer cell line (A2780). Compounds 3 and 20 showed the highest DNA damage effect in Comet Assay against the A2780 cancer cell line as compared to the other tested analogues (4, 8, 11, 12, and 13) by using % Tail DNA and OTM.
