Overexpression of prosurvival or underexpression of pro-death Bcl-2 family proteins can lead to cancer cell resistance to chemotherapy and radiation treatment. Inhibition of the prosurvival Bcl-2 family proteins has become a strategy for cancer therapy and inhibitors are currently being evaluated in the clinic both as single agents and in combination with established drugs. Here we describe the design, synthesis, and evaluation of pyrimidylpiperazines that were discovered to be inhibitors of the prosurvival Bcl-2 protein family member Bcl-XL. This study identified compound 21 which demonstrated a GI₅₀ value of 8.4μM against A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells and a binding affinity Kᵢ value for Bcl-XL of 127nM.
