Herein we present results of a Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) studies to classify and design, in a rational way, new antitrypanosomal compounds by using non-stochastic and stochastic bond-based quadratic indices. A data set of 440 organic chemicals, 143 with antitrypanosomal activity and 297 having other clinical uses, is used to develop QSAR models based on Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). Non-stochastic model correctly classifies more than 93% and 95% of chemicals in both training and external prediction groups, respectively. On the other hand, the stochastic model shows an accuracy of about the 87% for both series. As an experiment of virtual lead generation, the present approach is finally satisfactorily applied to the virtual evaluation of 8 already synthesized in house compounds. The in vitro antitrypanosomal activity of this series against epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi is assayed. The model is able to predict correctly the behaviour for the majority of these compounds. Three compounds (FER16, FER32 and FER33) showed more than 70% of epimastigote inhibition at a concentration of 100µg/mL (86.74%, 78.12% and 88.85%, respectively) and two of these chemicals, FER16 (78.22% of AE) and FER33 (81.31% of AE), also showed good activity at a concentration of 10µg/mL. At the same concentration, compound FER16 showed lower value of cytotoxicity (15.44%), and compound FER33 showed very low value of 1.37%. Taking into account all these results, we can say that these three compounds can be optimized in forthcoming works, but we consider that compound FER33 is the best candidate. Even though none of them resulted more active than Nifurtimox, the current results constitute a step forward in the search for efficient ways to discover new lead antitrypanosomals.
