(3R)-3-benzyl-1-(1H-imidazol-5-ylmethyl)-4-thiophen-2-ylsulfonyl-3,5-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepine-7-carbonitrile

BMS-214662 is a member of the class of benzodiazepines that is 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-1,4-benzodiazepine substituted by (1H-imidazol-5-yl)methyl, benzyl, (thiophen-2-yl)sulfonyl, and cyano groups at positions 1, 3R, 4 and 7, respectively. It is a potent inhibitor of farnesyltransferase (IC50 = 1.35nM) which was under clinical development for the treatment of solid tumors. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent, an apoptosis inducer and an EC 2.5.1.58 (protein farnesyltransferase) inhibitor. It is a member of imidazoles, a nitrile, a member of thiophenes, a sulfonamide, a member of benzenes and a benzodiazepine.|BMS-214662 has been used in trials studying the treatment of Childhood Myelodysplastic Syndromes, Refractory Anemia With Excess Blasts, Recurrent Adult Acute Myeloid Leukemia, Relapsing Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia, and Adult Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia (M3), among others.|BMS-214662 is a nonsedating benzodiazepine derivative with potential antineoplastic activity. Farnesyltransferase inhibitor BMS-214662 inhibits the enzyme farnesyltransferase and the post-translational farnesylation of number of proteins involved in signal transduction, which may result in the inhibition of Ras function and apoptosis in susceptible tumor cells. This agent may reverse the malignant phenotype of H-Ras-transformed cells and has been shown to be active against tumor cells with and without Ras mutations.
