  • Patent number: 8686020
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel class of substituted spirocyclic compounds. These compounds can inhibit histone deacetylase and are suitable for use in selectively inducing terminal differentiation, and arresting cell growth and/or apoptosis of neoplastic cells, thereby inhibiting proliferation of such cells. Thus, the compounds of the present invention are useful in treating a patient having a tumor characterized by proliferation of neoplastic cells. The compounds of the invention may also be useful in the prevention and treatment of TRX-mediated diseases, such as autoimmune, allergic and inflammatory diseases, and in the prevention and/or treatment of diseases of the central nervous system (CNS), such as neurodegenerative diseases.

  • Patent number: 8367706
    Abstract: The instant invention provides for compounds that inhibit the four known mammalian JAK kinases (JAK1, JAK2, JAK3 and TYK2) and PDK1. The invention also provides for compositions comprising such inhibitory compounds and methods of inhibiting the activity of JAK1, JAK2, JAK3 TYK2 and PDK1 by administering the compound to a patient in need of treatment for myeloproliferative disorders or cancer.

  • Patent number: 7834026
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel class of substituted spirocyclic compounds, represented by the following structural Formula: I Wherein A, B and D are independently selected from CR12, NR1a, C(O) and O; E is selected from a bond, CR12, NR1a, C(O) and O; wherein at least one of A, B, D or E is CR12; and provided that when A is O, then E is not O; G is CR12; R is selected from NH2 and OH; These compounds can inhibit histone deacetylase and are suitable for use in selectively inducing termin differentiation, and arresting cell growth and/or apoptosis of neoplastic cells, thereby inhibiting proliferation of such cells. Thus, the compounds of the present invention are useful in treating a patient having a tumor characterized by proliferation of neoplastic cells.
