A new series of neutral 5-substituted 4-anilinoquinazolines as potent, orally active inhibitors of erbB2 receptor tyrosine kinase

Starting from initial lead 1 containing a basic 5-substituent, optimisation of the glycolamide-derived neutral 5-substituent led to potent inhibitors of erbB2 with good pharmacokinetics. Representative compounds 19 and 21 inhibited phosphorylation of erbB2 in a mouse BT474C xenograft model after oral administration.
