  • Patent number: 7863444
    Abstract: Chemical compounds having structural formula I and physiologically acceptable salts thereof, are inhibitors of serine/threonine and tyrosine kinase activity. Several of the kinases whose activity is inhibited by these compounds are involved in immunologic, hyperproliferative or angiogenic processes. Thus, these compounds can ameliorate disase states where angiogenesis or endothelial cell hyperproliferaton is a factor. These compounds can be used to treat cancer, hyperproliferative disorders, rheumatoid artheritis, disorders of the immune system, transplant rejection, and inflammatory disorders.

  • Patent number: 6534655
    Abstract: Chemical compounds that are derivatives of indeno[1,2-c]pyrazole are inhibitors of tyrosine kinase activity. Several of the tyrosine kinases, whose activity is inhibited by these chemical compounds, are involved in angiogenic processes. Thus, these chemical compounds can ameliorate disease states where angiogenesis or endothelial cell proliferation is a factor. Compounds of this invention also inhibit the induction of vascular hyperpermeability and the associated formation of edema, ascites, and exudates.
