A series of thiazole-based inhibitors selectively targeting DNA-binding domain of the androgen receptor (AR) were synthesized, evaluated and the SAR data were summarized. We identified a novel compound SKLB-C2807 that effectively inhibited the human prostate cancer cell line LNCaP/AR with the IC50 value of 0.38 μM without significant antiproliferative effects on other cell lines PC-3 (AR-negative), SW620, MCF-7 (ER-positive) and L-O2 (non-cancerous). This compound also considerably decreased the expression of prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Its binding mode to the AR-DBD was studied. These efforts lay the foundation for developing the next generation of anti-androgens. This article is protected by copyright.
