Abstract: Identified compounds demonstrate protein kinase inhibitory activity. More specifically, the compounds are demonstrated to inhibit receptor interacting kinase 2 (RIPK2) and/or Activin-like kinase 2 (ALK2) and/or receptor interacting kinase 3 (RIPK3). Compounds that are either dual RIPK2/ALK2 inhibitors or that preferentially inhibit RIPK2 or ALK2 or RIPK3 could provide therapeutic benefit. Compounds that function as RIPK3 inhibitors provide therapeutic benefit in the treatment of inflammatory and degenerative conditions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to heterocyclic compounds (e.g., compounds described by Formula (I)) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The invention also features pharmaceutical compositions that include these compounds and their use in therapy for treating conditions in which necroptosis is likely to play a substantial role. The heterocyclic compounds described herein can also achieve improved activity and selectivity towards RIP1 and/or RIP3.

Abstract: Provided are certain 1,2,3-triazole and 1,2,3-triazole dimer analogs of DM-PIT-1 which are second-generation selective non-phosphoinositide small molecule inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3), including 1,2,3-triazoles represented by formula (I) where: Ar represents aryl or heteroaryl; X represents O or S; each of Ra, Rb, Rc, and Rd independently represents hydrogen, halogen, C1-C10alkyl, —OH, —CF3, aryl, amino, or nitro; and Ar is optionally substituted with one or more substituents independently selected from the group consisting of halogen, C1-C10alkyl, —OH, —CF3, amino, and nitro. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising compounds of the invention and a pharmaceutical carrier. Also provided are methods of inhibiting PIP3-mediated signaling in a cell and treating cancer using compounds of the invention.

Abstract: The invention features a series of heterocyclic derivatives that inhibit tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-?) induced necroptosis. The heterocyclic compounds of the invention are described by Formulas (I) and (Ia)-(Ie) and are shown to inhibit TNF-? induced necroptosis in FADD-deficient variant of human Jurkat T cells. The invention further features pharmaceutical compositions featuring the compounds of the invention. The compounds and compositions of the invention may also be used to treat disorders where necroptosis is likely to play a substantial role.

Abstract: Disclosed are new members of a class of non-lipid small molecule inhibitors which interfere with the interaction between phosphoinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3) and pleckstrin homology (PH) domains. These molecules target a broad range of PIP3-dependent signaling events in vitro and exert significant anti-tumor activity in vivo, with improved activity and selectivity toward particular PH domains. The small molecule inhibitors of the invention can be used alone or together with tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) or other cancer medicament to treat cancer. Small molecule inhibitors of the invention act synergistically in combination with TRAIL and with other Akt inhibitors in treating cancer. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods for treating cancer are provided.
