Imiquimod (1-isobutyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-4-amine) is efficacious in topical therapy for certain types of skin cancers. Structurally similar EAPB0203 (N-methyl-1-(2-phenethyl)imidazo[1,2-a]quinoxalin-4-amine) has been shown higher in vitro potency than imiquimod. Besides, triazole, oxadiazole, and thiadiazole rings are privileged building blocks in drug design. A series of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline-1,3,4-oxadiazole and [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives were therefore synthesized by incorporation of these rings into the structure of EAPB0203 and assessed their antiproliferative effects against various cancer cell lines. The 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives demonstrated the superior effectiveness compared to imiquimod and EAPB0203. Our findings highlight the excellent potential of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives as anticancer agents.
