Current Ongoing and Funded Project:
Project 1: (450,000 SR)
 
2015-2017 Design and synthesis of new compounds as multi-receptor targeting for treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. Kingdome of Saudi Arabia, National Plan for Science, Technology and innovation. (Project ID: 14-MED622-02; PI: Awwad A Radwan; Co-I: Fares K Al-Anazy).
Overview:
The project aims to synthesize tacrine derivatives intended to inhibit acetyl chorine esterase activity, chelate metals, amyloid-beta peptide aggregation, and inhibit beta-site APP converting enzyme (BACE) activity. This will be done through a combination of benzofuran moiety, AChE and BChE inhibitor, and 8-hydroxquinoline moiety, iron chelator, linked through substituted piperazine in one molecule. It is thought that the piperazine linker will enhance the molecule crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The proposed compounds are suggested to improve the muscarinic system beside neuroprotection through its iron chelation functionality. The new compound may be applicable to the treatment of multiple neurodegenerative disorders, including
Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
Funded Projects And Finished successfully:
Project 1: (45,000 SR)
2009-2010 Synthesis and molecular modelling of 1,2,4-triazole derivatives as selective
COX-inhibitors antiinflammatory. Saudi Arabia Basic Industries Company, SABIC (MED30-19) (PI: Awwad A Radwan; Co-I: Fares K Al-Anazy).
Overview:
Slight gastric ulceration occurs on longtime dose of currently COX-2 inhibitors such as Celcoxibe. Therefore, current research challenges with the synthesis of new compounds that are safer for gastrointestinal tissues or in other words more completely selective COX-2 inhibitors. In our work, A series of novel substituted 1,2,4-triazoles are designed for synthesis and evaluation for their inhibition of the two isoforms of human cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX2). This series is expected to displays exceptionally selective COX-2 inhibition. Computer-aided molecular modeling is done in order to correlate the biological activity with the threedimensional structure activity relationship and explore the binding mechanism between the test compounds and target site of the cyclooxygenase enzyme

Project 2: (150,000.0 SR)

2009-2010 Design and Synthesis of a Novel Crown Ether-Crosslinked Chitosan for Removal of Toxic Metal Ions (M+n) from Wastewater: An Industrial Application. Center of
Excellence for Research in Engineering Materials, Center of Excellence Programs, King Saud
University, Ministry of Higher Education, (03-CEREM-430) (PI: Ibrahim A Al-Sarra; Co-I: Awwad Aradwan)
Overview:
The water supply in Saudi Arabia has increased dramatically from 1.75 billion m3 in 1975 to
22.93 billion m3 in 1992. In Saudi Arabia, the total amount of wastewater available is around 1.32 million m3/d. In the near future, these amounts of industrial wastewater are of several hundred times-folds larger. The industrial areas of Saudi Arabia generate some of industrial wastewater which is discharged directly into the sea water without extensive treatment. The four main components of wastes in the Saudi Arabia industries are large-volume cooling water, lower volume but high-to-low strength process wastes from refineries and petrochemicals, and sanitary wastes. In addition, future expansion in the refineries and secondary industries in the areas will result in a greater pollution of the seawater and thus affect the productivity and quality of the seawater and environments surrounding the industrial areas. 
An unfortunate consequence of industrialization is the generation and the release of toxic waste products which are polluting our environment. Heavy metal contamination of various water resources is of great concern because of the toxic effects of heavy metals on human beings and other animals and plants, even at very low concentrations, and were listed as priority pollutants by the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
Addressing these problems calls out for a tremendous amount of research to be conducted to identify robust new methods of purifying water at lower cost and with less energy consumption, while at the same time minimizing the use of chemicals and impact on the environment. Advanced techniques of the science and technology are being developed to improve the disinfection and decontamination of water, as well as efforts to increase water supplies through the safe re-use of wastewater and efficient desalination of sea and brackish water. Adsorption has been proved to be an excellent way to treat industrial waste effluents, offering significant advantages like the low-cost, availability, profitability, easy of operation and efficiency. 
In recent years, biosorption using materials of biological origin as the adsorbents for heavy metal removal has attracted more interest, largely due to the unique properties of these biomaterials being environmentally benign, low cost, effective at low metal concentrations, and easily reusable. Among these biomaterials, chitosan, a derivative from N-deacetylation of chitin (a naturally abundant polysaccharide from crustacean and fungal biomass) has particularly attracted attention because of its capability to chemically or physically adsorb various heavy metal ions. 
Chitosan has received considerable interests for heavy metals removal due to its excellent metalbinding capacities and low cost as compared to the activated carbon. Chitosan can be recycled by releasing bound metals with an acid wash leaving the metal waste more highly concentrated in a greatly reduced volume. After rinsing with water, chitosan is available for immediate re-use. However, chitosan usually displayed poor acidic resistance and would gradually dissolve in a solution of pH 4 or less, which is considered a major drawback of chitosan as most industrial wastewater containing heavy metals are almost acidic and eventually, will limit the use of the chitosan, as low-cost recyclable sorpent, in decontamination of industrial wastewater. 
Objectives:
One goal of this research is to investigate and plan to overcome the above mentioned dilemma through the synthesis of new and novel chitosan derivatives, crown ether crosslinked chitosan. This crown ether crosslinked chitosan is a water insoluble derivative either in a basic or in an acidic medium and still exhibits an excellent heavy metal adsorption capacity. In addition, the crown ethers, which contain a hydrophobic ring of ethylenic groups surrounding a hydrophilic cavity of ether oxygen atoms, possess the greatest affinities for the alkali and alkaline earth cations. The crown ether crosslinked chitosan proposed to be synthesized will be characterized using analytical and instrumental methods. Also, its adsorptive properties of industrial heavy metals either in basic or acidic industrial waste water will be characterized for large scale usefulness in decontamination of industrial waste water to be re-used in our daily life as in agriculture and in industries that require large amounts of water as in cooling process of nuclear plants or even to be re-used for human being.
(The project finished and published August 2010)
Project 3: (1,000,000.0 SR)
2012-2013 Design and Synthesis of Novel Cholesterol-Conjugated 5-Fluorouracil Compounds: Their Loading in nanocarriers as Novel Delivery System for Cancer Treatment. King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology 2011 (10-NAN1286-02) (PI:
Awwad A Radwan; Co-I: Fares K Al-Anazi).
Overview:
In this study, cholesterol esters will be conjugated to 5-fluorouracil to generate a series of new cholesterol 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) compounds. These compounds will be loaded to low density lipoprotein (LDL). Also, these compounds will then be packaged into liposomes.
It is proposed that the LDL-loaded with cholesterol-5-FU conjugates will specifically bind, including its loaded anticancer drug, to the LDL receptor (which is highest recognized on cancer cells) and deliver the 5-FU to the tumor cell. Following development of the pro-drug liposomes, they will be tested for their ability to inhibit growth of breast carcinoma cells and in vivo using animal model.
