title: Syntheses and EGFR and HER-2 kinase inhibitory activities of 4-anilinoquinoline-3-carbonitriles: analogues of three important 4-anilinoquinazolines currently undergoing clinical evaluation as therapeutic antitumor agents.
abstract: The syntheses and biological evaluations of 4-anilinoquinoline-3-carbonitrile analogues of the three clinical lead 4-anilinoquinazolines Iressa, Tarceva, and CI-1033 are described. The EGFR and HER-2 kinase inhibitory activities and the cell growth inhibition of the two series are compared with each other and with the clinical lead EKB-569. Similar activities are observed between these two series.
