Discovering novel derivatives of STAT3 and HDAC inhibitors with anti‐tumor activity

= 14.65 ± 0.24 μM) in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Furthermore, the dual inhibition to HDAC and STAT3 of compound 24 was validated by western blot analysis. The study provides new tool compounds for further exploration of STAT3-HDAC pathway inhibitor achieved with a single molecule.
