Abstract: Aminothiazole compounds with mono-/di-substituted benzamide are represented by the Formula (I), and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, pharmaceutically acceptable prodrugs, pharmaceutically active metabolites, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts of said metabolites are described. These agents modulate and/or inhibit the cell proliferation and activity of protein kinases and are useful as pharmaceuticals for treating malignancies and other disorders.

Abstract: Diaminothiazole compounds that modulate and/or inhibit the activity of certain protein kinases are described. These compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing them are capable of mediating tyrosine kinase signal transduction in order to modulate and/or inhibit unwanted cell proliferation. The invention is also directed to the therapeutic or prophylactic use of pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and to methods of treating cancer as well as other disease states associated with unwanted angiogenesis and/or cellular proliferation, such as diabetic retinopathy, neovascular glaucoma, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriasis, by administering effective amounts of such compounds.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical compositions containing effective amounts of CDK-inhibiting diaminothiazole compounds of the following formula (where R1 and R2 are as defined in the specification) or their salts, or prodrugs or active metabolites of such compounds or salts, are useful for treating disorders and diseases such as cancer: In preferred embodiments, R1 and R2 are independently unsubstituted or substituted carbocyclic or heterocyclic aryl ring structures. Compounds where R2 is ortho-substituted aryl are especially potent inhibitors of CDKs such as CDK4.

Abstract: Pyrazole-thiazole compounds that modulate and/or inhibit the activity of cyclin-dependent kinases are described. These compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing them are capable of mediating cyclin-dependent diseases to modulate and/or inhibit unwanted cell proliferation. The invention is also directed to the therapeutic or prophylactic use of pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and to methods of treating cancer as well as other disease states associated with unwanted angiogenesis and/or cellular proliferation, such as diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriasis, by administering effective amounts of such compounds.

Abstract: Indazole compounds that modulate and/or inhibit cell proliferation, such as the activity of protein kinases are described. These compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing them are capable of mediating, e.g., kinases-dependent diseases to modulate and/or inhibit unwanted cell proliferation. The invention is also directed to the therapeutic or prophylactic use of pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and to methods of treating cancer as well as other disease states associated with unwanted angiogenesis and/or cellular proliferation, such as diabetic retinopathy, neovascular glaucoma, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriasis, by administering effective amounts of such compounds.
