Synthesis and Anti-Tumor Evaluation of Carboranyl BMS-202 Analogues—A Case of Carborane Not as Phenyl Ring Mimetic [PDF]

Molecules
Carborane is considered a three-dimensional mimetic of phenyl rings in medicinal chemistry. BMS-202 is a potent PD-L1 inhibitor that can block the PD-L1/PD-1 interaction and restore the immune response to cancer cells.

Carboranes as unique pharmacophores in antitumor medicinal chemistry

Molecular Therapy: Oncolytics, 2022
Carborane is a carbon-boron molecular cluster that can be viewed as a 3D analog of benzene. It features special physical and chemical properties, and thus has the potential to serve as a new type of pharmacophore for drug design and discovery.
