Abstract

Estrogen receptor-α (ER- α) is a principal endocrine regulatory protein in breast cancer. The progression of ER-α positive breast cancer is slowed by selective estrogen receptor modulators such as Tamoxifen. But, long term therapy with Tamoxifen leads to resistance. Therefore, it is of interest to document the Molecular docking and pharmacokinetic analysis of imeglimin derivatives with ER-alpha. Among the 166 derivatives of Imeglimin, only five derivatives were shortlisted after toxicity testing. The selected derivatives showed good binding affinity with favorable pharmacokinetic profiles. The selected compounds of Imeglimin were found to possess excellent anticancer potential and could be considered as novel, cost-effective anticancer agents effective against ER positive breast cancer for further investigation.
