    Abstract:
    Optimization of IG-105 (1) on the carbazole ring provided five series of new carbazole sulfonamides derivatives, 7a-e, 8a-g, 9a-g, 10a-e, and 11a-g. All of the compounds were evaluated against HepG2, MCF-7, MIA PaCa-2, and Bel-7402 cells for antiproliferative activity. Each series of compounds was 2-5 times more active against HepG2 cells (IC50: 1.00-10.0 μM) than the other three tumor cell lines. Several representative compounds, selected from each series, showed aqueous solubility (13.4-176.5 µg/mL at pH 7.4 and 2.0) better than 1, with the aqueous solubility of corresponding salts > 30 mg/mL. From the results of evaluating the effects of the compounds 7b, 8c, 9c, 10c and 11c on tubulin in vitro, we speculated that their targets were different from those of 1 and CA-4P. We tested the antitumor activity of the representative compound 7b·HCl (10 mg/kg) in an in vivo study and found that its tumor growth inhibition rate was 41.1%. The tumor growth inhibition rate of 7b·HCl (20 mg/kg) was 54.6%, whereas the tumor growth inhibition rate of CA-4P (50 mg/kg) was 48.3%. And in another batch of in vivo antitumor activity testing, 9c·HCl and 11c·HCl at doses of 10 mg/kg resulted in 61.1% and 50.0% inhibition, respectively. These promising results warrant further development of the derivatives, which may use a novel mechanism and show potential potency as antitumor drug candidates.
