Sorafenib (Sor) is an oral multi-kinase inhibitor, but its water solubility is very low. To improve its solubility, sorafenib hydrochloride hydrate, sorafenib hydrobromide and sorafenib hydrobromide hydrate were prepared in the mixed solvent of the corresponding acid solution, and tetrahydrofuran (THF). The crystal structures of sorafenib hydrochloride trihydrate (Sor·HCl.3HO), 4-(4-{3-[4-chloro-3-(trifluoro-methyl)phenyl]ureido}phenoxy)-2-(-methylcarbamoyl) pyridinium hydrochloride trihydrate, CHClFNO·Cl.3HO (I), sorafenib hydrochloride monohydrate (Sor·HCl.HO), CHClFNO·Cl.HO (II), its solvated form (sorafenib hydrochloride monohydrate monotetrahydrofuran (Sor·HCl.HO.THF), CHClFNO·Cl.HO.CHO (III)), sorafenib hydrobromide (Sor·HBr), 4-(4-{3-[4-chloro-3-(trifluoro-methyl)phenyl]ureido}phenoxy)-2-(N-methylcarbamoyl) pyridinium hydrobromide, CHClFNO·Br (IV) and sorafenib hydrobromide monohydrate (Sor·HBr.HO), CHClFNO·Br.HO (V) were analysed. Their hydrogen bond systems and topologies were investigated. The results showed the distinct roles of water molecules in stabilizing their crystal structures. Moreover, (II) and (V) were isomorphous crystal structures with the same space group P2/n, and similar unit cell dimensions. The predicted morphologies of these forms based on the BFDH model matched well with experimental morphologies. The energy frameworks showed that (I), and (IV) might have better tabletability than (II) and (V). Moreover, the solubility and dissolution rate data exhibited an improvement in the solubility of these salts compared with the free drug.

Treatment options for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) have improved substantially in the last 30 years, but there is still a need for novel molecules that can regulate the excessive accumulation of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) and consequent vascular remodeling. One set of possible candidates are protein kinases. The study provides an overview of existing preclinical and clinical data regarding small-molecule protein kinase inhibitors in PAH.

The parent ethyl 3-(4-benzyl-1-oxophthalazin-2(1)-yl) propanoate (3) has 25 compounds. Their respective mono, dipeptides and hydrazones derivatives were produced by chemoselective -alkylation addition reaction of 4-benzylphthalazin-1(2)-one (2) with ethyl acrylate and anhydrous potassium carbonate to give ethyl 3-(4-benzyl-1-oxophthalazin-2(1)-yl) propanoate (3). The ester 3 was hydrazinolyzed to give the corresponding hydrazide 3-(4-benzyl-1-oxophthalazin-2(1)-yl) propanehydrazide (5), then azide 6 coupled with amino acid ester hydrochloride and/or amines to afford several parent esters 8a-c, then a series of hydrazinolyzed reactions occurred to give corresponding hydrazides 9a-c.

In this paper, we report the synthesis of quinoxaline-isoxazole-piperazine conjugates. The anticancer activity was evaluated against three human cancer cell lines, including MCF-7 (breast), HepG-2 (liver), and HCT-116 (colorectal). The outcomes of the tested compounds 5d, 5e, and 5f have shown more potent activity when compared to the standard drug erlotinib.

The effectiveness of a new series of thiopyrimidine and thiourea containing sulfonamides moieties was tested on HCT-116, MCF-7, HepG2, and A549. HepG2 cell line was the one that all the new derivatives affected the most. The greatest potent compounds against the four HepG2, HCT116, MCF-7, and A549 cell lines were 8f and 8g with IC  = 4.

Background: Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a highly aggressive and lethal malignancy that accounts for 10-15% of lung cancers, and it is generally divided into limited and extensive stage. The standard of care for patients with newly diagnosed extensive-stage SCLC (ES-SCLC) is still platinum-based chemotherapy and as maintenance therapy scheme. Although most parts of patients experience a significant tumor response to first-line therapy, the disease recurs invariably.
