Abstract

A series of novel quinoxaline derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory activity against c-Met kinase enzyme. Most of the tested compounds exhibited potent inhibitory activity. All the synthesized quinoxaline compounds were further examined against c-Met overexpressed human gastric Cancer cell line (MKN-45), which showed good inhibitory activity. Among the synthesized compounds, compound 4 exhibited better tumor growth inhibition in the animal model study; we also confirmed its acceptable drug property and highly selective target activity.
