  • Patent number: 11839609
    Abstract: Novel compositions and methods of using the compositions to treat triple negative breast cancer are presented. 4-Ethyl-N-(7-hydroxy-3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-2(1H)-yl) benzamide has been shown to downregulate the expression of several genes associated with TNBC such as amphiregulin (AREG), epiregulin (EREG), inhibitor of DNA binding 1 (ID1), inhibitor of DNA binding 3 (ID3), killer cell lectin like receptor C3 (KLRC3), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2), and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1). In addition, the compound has been shown to downregulate the oncostatin M(OSM) signaling pathway.

  • Patent number: 10730840
    Abstract: The compounds herein disclosed are N-substituted tetrahydroisoquinoline ethylbenzamide compounds that have modifications on the phenyl rings by introducing groups with various electronic properties. These derivatives of N-substituted tetrahydroisoquinoline ethylbenzamide compounds have been shown to have anti-proliferative activity against cells. In particular, the compounds have been found to be effective in inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells, such as cancer cells that originated in breast tissue. Additionally, it has been shown that the novel compounds have IC50 values against the breast cancer cells that are 6- to 10-fold less than the IC50 of Tamoxifen.
