Abstract: A method of reducing or inhibiting kinase activity of C-KIT in a cell or a subject, and the use of such compounds for preventing or treating in a subject a cell proliferative disorder and/or disorders related to C-KIT using a compound of the present invention: or a solvate, hydrate, tautomer or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The present invention is further directed to methods for treating conditions such as cancers and other cell proliferative disorders.

Abstract: The present invention provides therapeutic methods for treating a subject having, and prophylactic methods for preventing in a subject at risk of (or susceptible to) developing, bone cancer and the bone loss and bone pain associated with bone cancer, said method comprising the administration of a compound of Formula I: or a solvate, hydrate, tautomer or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to arylamide and hetereoarylamide compounds of Formula I: wherein A, X, R2 and W are set forth in the specification, as well as tautomers and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, that inhibit protein tyrosine kinases, especially c-fms kinase. Methods of treating autoimmune diseases; and diseases with an inflammatory component; treating metastasis from ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, stomach cancer, hairy cell leukemia and non-small lung carcinoma; and treating pain, including skeletal pain caused by tumor metastasis or osteoarthritis, or visceral, inflammatory, and neurogenic pain; as well as osteoporosis, Paget's disease, and other diseases in which bone resorption mediates morbidity including arthritis, prosthesis failure, osteolytic sarcoma, myeloma, and tumor metastasis to bone with the compounds of Formula I, are also provided.

Abstract: A biomarker that correlates to treatment with drugs that inhibit FMS is disclosed. This biomarker has been shown to have utility in assessing response to the compounds. The plasma level of the biomarker is increased upon treatment with FMS inhibitor compounds, thus indicating that this biomarker is involved in FMS activity.

Abstract: A method of inhibiting the production of cytokines, particularly inhibiting the production of tumor necrosis factor&agr;, interleukin-10, and macrophage inflammatory protein-1&agr; and the like, in a mammal, including a human, in need thereof which involves administering to such mammal an effective amount, preferably cytokine production inhibiting amount, of a polymethoxylated flavone.
