Toward discovery of mutant EGFR inhibitors; Design, synthesis and in vitro biological evaluation of potent 4-arylamino-6-ureido and thioureido-quinazoline derivatives

A new series of 4-anilinoquinazolines with C-6 ureido and thioureido side chains and various substituents at the C-4 anilino moiety was designed, synthesized and evaluated as wild type (WT) and mutant EGFR inhibitors. Most of the compounds inhibited EGFR kinase wild type (EGFR WT) with IC50 values in the low nanomolar range (
