Abstract:
:Identification of potent anticancer agents with high selectivity and low toxicity remains on the way to human health. Pyridazine featuring advantageous physicochemical properties and antitumor potential usually is regarded as a central core in numerous anticancer derivatives. There are several approved pyridazine-based drugs in the market and analogues currently going through different clinical phases or registration statuses, suggesting pyridazine as a promising drug-like scaffold. The current review is intended to provide a comprehensive and updated overview of pyridazine derivatives as potential anticancer agents. In particular, we focused on their structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies, design strategies, binding modes and biological activities in the hope of offering novel insights for further rational design of more active and less toxic anticancer drugs.
