Abstract
Abstract Cancer remains a leading cause of death worldwide, resulting in continuous efforts to discover and develop highly efficacious anticancer drugs. High‐throughput screening of heterocyclic compound libraries is one of the promising approaches that provided several new lead molecules with a novel mechanism of action. On the basis of the promising anticancer potential of imidazoquinoxaline as well as the structurally similar imidazoquinoline‐derived scaffold, we prepared a set of C6‐substituted benzimidazo[1,2‐ a ]quinoxaline derivatives via two novel synthetic routes using commercially available starting materials, with good to excellent yields and evaluated their anticancer activity against the NCI‐60 cancer cell lines. The one‐dose (10 µM) anticancer screening of the synthesized compounds in the NCI‐60 cell line panel revealed that the substituents have a significant role in the activity. In particular, the indole ( 7f ), imidazole ( 7g ), and benzimidazole ( 7h ) derivatives showed significant activity against the triple‐negative breast cancer cell line, MDA‐MB‐468. The lead compounds also exhibited notable IC 50 values against another breast cancer cell line, MCF‐7. Furthermore, it was observed that these compounds were relatively nontoxic to normal cell lines: HEK293 (human embryonic kidney cell line) and MCF12A (nontumorigenic human breast epithelial cell line). The IC 50 values against healthy cells were at least 5‐ to 11‐fold higher, offering a new class of heterocycles that can be further developed as promising therapeutics for cancer treatment.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
