Abstract
The clinical use of epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer was limited by the drug resistance caused by EGFRC797S mutation. Therefore, in order to overcome the drug resistance, we designed and synthesized a series of 2-aminopyrimidine derivatives as EGFRC797S-TKIs. Among these compounds, compounds A5 and A13 showed significant anti-proliferative activity against the KC-0116 (EGFRdel19/T790M/C797S) cell line with high selectivity. A5 inhibited EGFR phosphorylation and induced apoptosis of KC-0116 cell, arrested KC-0116 cell at G2/M phase. Molecular docking results showed that A5 and brigatinib bind to EGFR in a similar pattern. In addition to forming two important hydrogen bonds with Met793 residue, A5 also formed a hydrogen bond with Lys745 residues, which may play an important role for the potent inhibitory activity against EGFRdel19/T790M/C797S. Based on these results, A5 turned out to be effective reversible EGFRC797S-TKIs which can be further developed.
