The synthesis of dihydroxybenzoperimidine derivatives, which are chromophore-modified dihydroxyanthracenediones with an additional pyrimidine ring incorporated into the chromophore, is reported. These derivatives are structurally related to the antitumor agent mitoxantrone. Their synthesis was carried out by the reaction of 6-amino-8,11-dihydroxy-7H-benzo[e]perimidin-7-one (5) or 6,8, 11-trihydroxy-7H-benzo[e]perimidin-7-one (10) with a number of respective (alkylamino)alkylamines. The dihydroxybenzoperimidine derivatives exhibited in vitro cytotoxic activity against murine leukemia L1210 and human leukemia HL60 cell lines comparable to that of mitoxantrone. These compounds also exhibited a range of in vitro activity against the human MDR-type resistant leukemia K562R cell line with the MDR phenotype. The most active compound of this series, namely 6a, exhibited potent in vitro cytotoxic activity against a panel of human cell lines. Furthermore, in contrast to both mitoxantrone and doxorubicin, it displayed little cross-resistance in cell lines characterized by a MDR phenotype. Cell cycle analysis in the sensitive HT-29 and mitoxantrone-resistant HT-29/Mx (not identified resistance mechanism) cell lines has revealed that both mitoxantrone and 6a induce a G2/M block. However, while the proportion of apoptotic cells after mitoxantrone treatment is similar for both sensitive and resistant cell lines, it is much lower for 6a. Compound 6a tested against P388 murine leukemia in vivo displayed a significant antitumor effect (%T/C 196 at an optimal dose of 10 mg/kg). The property of overcoming the cross-resistance was maintained also in in vivo efficacy studies, where no difference was observed in the antitumor activity of compound 6a against the A2780 human tumor xenograft and its MDR A2780/Dx subline. We conclude that benzoperimidines, if properly substituted, constitute a novel class of compounds that can overcome multidrug resistance.
