Vandetanib (ZD6474) is a potent inhibitor of VEGFR2 with IC50 of 40 nM | [Uses]
Vandetanib is a once-daily oral inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 and epidermal growth factor receptor kinase activity. The activity of Vandetanib plus Docetaxel was assessed
in patients with previously treated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). | [Uses]
Vandetanib is a broad spectrum, orally available kinase inhibitor that targets primarily tyrosine kinases, including vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), with IC50 values in the nanomolar range. It also potently blocks non-receptor tyrosine kinases, including ABL, RET, and SRC, as well as several serine/threonine kinases. Primarily because of its effects on receptor tyrosine kinases like VEGFR and EGFR, vandetanib inhibits angiogenesis, cell growth, and metastasis and is effective against certain forms of cancer.[Cayman Chemical] | [Description]
In April 2011, the U.S. FDA approved vandetanib (ZD6474) for the treatment of symptomatic or progressive medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) in adult patients with inoperable advanced ormetastatic disease. Vandetanib inhibits KDR/VEGFR2, VEGFR3, EGFR, and RET kinases with IC50's of 40, 110, 500, and <100 nM, respectively. In athymic mice bearing MTC tumors, a 14.5-fold reduction of tumor volume was observed after 45 days of treatment with vandetanib at 50 mg/kg/day. The decrease in tumor volume was accompanied by decreases in mitotic index (Ki67) and tumor angiogenesis in treated xenografts. Key steps in the synthesis of vandetanib include the displacement of the chlorine atom from 7-benzyloxy-4-chloro-6-methoxyquinazoline with 4-bromo-2- fluoroaniline under acidic conditions in a protic solvent and a Mitsunobu reaction of a N-protected piperidine alcohol with a phenol. | [Originator]

Class: receptor tyrosine kinase;
Treatment: RET-altered thyroid cancers;
Other name: AZD-6474;
Elimination half-life = 19 days;
Protein binding = 90% | [Clinical Use]
Vandetanib, an oral VEGF, EGF, and RET receptor tyrosine kinase
inhibitor, was developed by AstraZeneca for the treatment of
symptomatic or aggressive medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) in patients
with advanced or metastatic disease. This is the first drug
approved for the treatment of MTC. Trials for other cancer indications
such as small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), breast cancer, head and
neck cancer, colorectal cancer, hormone-resistant prostate cancer,
and papillary thyroid cancer are currently being explored. While
AstraZeneca had previously developed ZD-4190 which displays
similar efficacy and pharmacokinetic profile to vandetanib, vandetanib
exhibited significantly improved solubility. | [Synthesis]
Vandetanib contains
a 4-anilinoquinazoline scaffold similar to other EGFR
inhibitors, and the synthesis described below is based on a recent
patent (Scheme).![Synthesis_443913-73-3](https://www.chemicalbook.com/NewsImg/2021-02-09/20210209820008881457291848.jpg)
Commercially available vanillic acid (262) was treated with
benzyl bromide, DIPEA and Et3N to give ethereal ester 263 in 93%
yield. Arene 263 was then subjected to nitration conditions to provide
nitroarene 264 in 86% yield, which underwent immediate
reduction with sodium dithionite in acetonitrile and water to give
aniline 265 in 92% yield. Aniline 265 was then treated with foramidine
acetate in isobutanol which affected an intramolecular cyclization
reaction, giving rise to dihydroquinazolin-4-one 266 in 98%
yield. Heterocycle 266 was treated with phosphorous oxychloride
and the resulting quinazoline chloride was subsequently reacted
with 4-bromo-2-fluoroaniline 267 and trifluoroacetic acid to give
hydroxyaniline 268 in 90% for the three-step sequence. Phenolic
azacycle 268 was then alkylated with sulfonate 269 to furnish
piperidine 270 in 77% yield. Subsequent treatment with formic
acid and aqueous formaldehyde under elevated temperatures gave
vandetanib (XXIII) in 91% yield. | [target]

Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [Anticancer drugs]
Vandetanib is a kind of small molecule multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor studied and developed by the British AstraZeneca Company. In April 2011, it was approved the US FDA for entering into market under the trade name Zactima. The drug, as a tablet, can be applied to the treatment of advanced medullary thyroid cancer of adult patients.
Vandetanib is a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and belongs to the Anilinoquinazoline compounds, called "second generation Iressa”. It not only acts on the tumor cells, EGFR, VEGFR and RET tyrosine kinases, but can also inhibit other kind of tyrosine kinases and serine/threonine kinases. Vandetanib is the first approved drugs approved for treatment of medullary thyroid carcinoma. It is suitable for treating unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic-symptoms or progressive medullary thyroid carcinoma. A randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial results have showed that vandetanib can significantly delay the progression time of locally advanced or metastatic medullary thyroid cancer. The recommended daily dose is 300 mg (oral), when the patient exhibits tolerance to drugs or being not able to tolerate the toxicity, they should stop treatment immediately. Those most common adverse reactions of this medicine include diarrhea, rash, acne, nausea, hypertension, headache, fatigue, loss of appetite and abdominal pain.
The adverse reactions is dose-related; at <300 mg/d, the patient has a well tolerance with the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) being 300mg. There are many kinds disease types contained in the Ⅱ phase clinical study. The NSCLC clinical trials of vandetanib are currently under way for China.
British AstraZeneca Company, in May 2001 and October 2001, respectively, had obtained preferential access to the world's patent (WO2001032651, WO 2001074360) and applied corresponding protection on the formula, synthesis methods and pharmaceutical compositions of these compounds (including bonus salt). Vandetanib can inhibit the development of medullary thyroid carcinoma, and is the first FDA-approved drug for the treatment of the disease and will provide support for the treatment of advanced medullary thyroid cancer in adult patients.

| [Treatment of advanced (non-small cell lung cancer) NSCLC]
A study published in the [Journal of Clinical Oncology] have showed that compared with gefitinib which only has inhibitory effect on EGFR, vandetanib can effectively extend the progression-free survival period of the non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.
In this phase II clinical trial conducted by doctors Ronald B. Natale from Los Angeles Cedars-Sinai Cancer Center, clinical study compared the treatment efficacy of vandetanib (300 mg/d) and gefitinib (250mg/d) on 168 cases of NSCLC patients who had been subject to failing first-line or second-line chemotherapy. Compared with gefitinib, vandetanib significantly increased efficiency and prolonged the progression-free survival, period respectively, by 8% and 1%, 11.9 weeks and 8.1 weeks, (P = 0.011). In clinical trials, if there is progression of the disease or if the patient can’t tolerate the toxicity, they allowed the patients to change the treatment regimen. Experimental results had shown that using gefitinib for replacing vandetanib in patients gave a disease control rate of 14% while using vandetanib to replace gefitinib gave a disease control rate of 32%. The overall survival period in the case of vandetanib → gefitinib was 6.1 months while it was 7.4 months in the cases of gefitinib → vandetanib.
| [Preparation method]
Use 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzoic acid ethyl ester as a starting material, go through substitution, reduction, nitrification, reduction, cyclization aromatization to give 4-chloro-6-methoxy--7-(N-methyl piperidin-4-ylmethoxy) quinazoline (A), A was then reacted with 4-bromo-2-aniline to obtain the targeted compound vandetanib.
| [Binding Mode]
Vandetanib is anchored to the hinge of RET by
forming a critical hydrogen bond between the N1
nitrogen of the quinazoline group and the amide NH
of Ala807 of the hinge (Figs. 2, 3). The methoxy
oxygen interacts with the side chain hydroxyl of
Ser811 via a bound water molecule, while the C4 NH
is involved in a network of hydrogen bonds with three
water molecules and the side chain carboxylate of Asp892.
