Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of treating chronic myelogenous leukemia in a subject comprising administering to the subject a compound, such as N-methyl-2-[3-((E)-2-pyridin-2-yl-vinyl)-1H-indazol-6-ylsulfanyl]-benzamide, that inhibits the T315I mutation in BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The present invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound such as N-methyl-2-[3-((E)-2-pyridin-2-yl-vinyl)-1H-indazol-6-ylsulfanyl]-benzamide, that inhibits the T315I mutation in BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent.

Abstract: The identification, isolation, purification, and characterization of the catalytic domain of the human hepatocyte growth factor receptor kinase (hHGFR) are described. A crystal structure of the hHGFR kinase domain is reported herein. This structure provides a three-dimensional description of the binding site of the hHGFR for structure-based design of small molecule inhibitors thereof as therapeutic agents. The kinase domain of human HGFR and its associated crystal structure is described for use in the discovery, identification and characeterization of modulators of human HGFR.
