Aminosteroid derivatives represent a new family of compounds with promising antiproliferative activity over different cancer cell lines. Among all the aminosteroid derivatives synthesised in our laboratory, we have identified E-37P as one of the more potent when tested in vitro. Unfortunately, the pharmacokinetic properties of E-37P decrease its effectiveness when tested in vivo. To improve the bioavailability and increase the efficiency of aminosteroid E-37P, two series of analog compounds were synthesised by classic chemical synthesis, they were then characterized, and the concentration that inhibits 50% of cell proliferation (IC50) was determined on different cell lines. RM-133, a 5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol derivative with a quinoline nucleus at the end of the piperazine-proline side-chain at position 2β and an ethinyl at position 17α, showed very good antiproliferative activity among the five cancer cell lines studied (IC50=0.1, 0.1, 0.1, 2.0 and 1.1 μM for HL-60, MCF-7, T-47D, LNCaP and WEHI-3, respectively). Moreover, the plasmatic concentration of RM-133 at 3h, when injected subcutaneously in rats, was 2.3-fold higher than that of E-37P (151 vs 64.8 ng/mL). Furthermore, RM-133 weakly inhibited the two representative liver enzymes, CYP3A4 and CYP2D6, indicating a very low risk of drug-drug interactions. The cytotoxicity of RM-133 against normal cells was tested on peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) obtained from different donors and previously activated with phytohemagglutinin-L. PBL responded differently to treatment with RM-133, we observed a stimulation of cell proliferation and/or cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner. Based on these results, additional studies are currently underway to evaluate the selectivity of our lead compound against normal cell lines in a more detailed fashion.
