ABSTRACT
Background: Gefitinib and sorafenib have been proved effective for the treatment of cancers in clinical practice for years. Materials & methods: We intended to integrate the structural features of gefitinib and sorafenib and construct structurally unique 7-aromatic ureido-4-anilinoquinazolines. Results: Most of the targets exhibited promising antitumor activities. 8u showed excellent antitumor activities against the three tested cell lines (IC50, 0.81-2.49 µM). The enzymatic, apoptosis assay of 8u were also performed to study their preliminary action of mechanism. Conclusion: 8u deserve further research as antitumor agents.
