Abstract
As a part of our continuous structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies on 1-(quinazolin-4-yl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethan-1-ols, the synthesis of derivatives and their cytotoxicity against the human lung cancer cell line A549 were explored. This led to the discovery of 1-(2-(furan-3-yl)quinazolin-4-yl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethan-1-ol (PVHD303) with potent antiproliferative activity. PVHD303 disturbed microtubule formation at the centrosomes and inhibited the growth of tumors dose-dependently in the HCT116 human colon cancer xenograft model in vivo.
