Novel Pyrazole-Chalcone Hybrids: Synthesis and Computational Insights Against Breast Cancer.

More women die of breast cancer than of any other malignancy. The resistance and toxicity of traditional hormone therapy created an urgent need for potential molecules for treating breast cancer effectively. Novel biphenyl-substituted pyrazole chalcones linked to a pyrrolidine ring were designed by using a hybridization approach.

Discovery of Novel Pyrimidine Based Small Molecule Inhibitors as VEGFR-2 Inhibitors: Design, Synthesis, and Anti-cancer Studies.

Background: Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are potent oncoproteins in cancer that, when mutated or overexpressed, can cause uncontrolled growth of cells, angiogenesis, and metastasis, making them significant targets for cancer treatment. Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2), is a tyrosine kinase receptor that is produced in endothelial cells and is the most crucial regulator of angiogenic factors involved in tumor angiogenesis. So, a series of new substituted N-(4-((2-aminopyrimidin-5-yl)oxy)phenyl)-N-phenyl cyclopropane- 1,1-dicarboxamide derivatives as VEGFR-2 inhibitors have been designed and synthesized.

Discovery of New Quinazoline Derivatives as VEGFR-2 Inhibitors: Design, Synthesis, and Anti-proliferative Studies.

Background: In cancer, Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are powerful oncoproteins that can lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and metastasis when mutated or overexpressed, making them crucial targets for cancer treatment. In endothelial cells, one of them is vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2), a tyrosine kinase receptor that is produced and is the most essential regulator of angiogenic factors involved in tumor angiogenesis. So, a series of new N-(4-(4-amino-6,7-dimethoxyquinazolin-2-yloxy)phenyl)-N-phenyl cyclopropane-1,1- dicarboxamide derivatives as VEGFR-2 inhibitors have been designed and synthesized.

Recent progress in targeting KRAS mutant cancers with covalent G12C-specific inhibitors.

KRAS has been identified as a potential target in the treatment of solid tumors. One of the most often transformed proteins in human cancers is the small Kirsten rat sarcoma homolog (KRAS) subunit of GTPase, which is typically the oncogene driver. KRAS is altered to keep the protein in an active GTP-binding form.
