Tubulin is the major protein component in microtubules, and interference with microtubule assembly leads to an increase of cells in metaphase arrest. Inhibition of microtubule function using tubulin targeted agents are widely used in the treatment of cancer. This invention describes novel arylthioindole derivatives, 3arylthioindole-2-carboxylic acid esters derivatives, having excellent affinity for tubulin and excellent efficacy as inhibitors of the growth of MCF–7 breast cancer cells. These new chemical compounds have the potential to result in more effective therapeutics for the treatment of neoplastic diseases. Applications: Therapeutic for proliferative diseases such as cancer. Market: 600,000 deaths from cancer related diseases estimated in 2006. Development Status: The technology is currently in the pre-clinical stage of development. Inventors: Ernest Hamel (NCI) et al.
