Abstract: This invention pertains to certain carbamic acid compounds which inhibit HDAC (histone deacetylase) activity of the following formula: wherein: Cy is independently a cyclyl group; Q1 is independently a covalent bond or cyclyl leader group; the piperazin-1,4-diyl group is optionally substituted; J1 is independently a covalent bond or —C(?;O)—; J2 is independently —C(?O)— or —S(?O)2—; Q2 is independently an acid leader group; wherein: Cy is independently: C3-20carbocyclyl, C3-20heterocyclyl, or C5-20aryl; and is optionally substituted; Q1 is independently: a covalent bond; C1-7alkylene; or C1-7alkylene-X—C1-7alkylene, —X—C1-7alkylene, or C1-7alkylene-X—, wherein X is —O— or —S—; and is optionally substituted; Q2 is independently: C4-8alkylene; and is optionally substituted; and has a backbone length of at least 4 atoms; or: Q2 is independently: C5-20arylene; C5-20arylene-C1-7alkylene; C1-7alkylene-C5-20arylene; or, C1-7alkylene-C5-20arylene-C1-7alkylene; and is optionally substituted; and has a backbone le

Abstract: This invention pertains to certain active carbamic acid compounds which inhibit HDAC activity and which have the following formula: (I) A is an aryl group; Q1 is a covalent bond or an aryl leader group; J is a sulfonamide linkage selected from: —S(?O)2NR1— and —NR1S(?O)2—; R1 is a sulfonamido substituent; and, Q2 is an acid leader group; with the proviso that if J is —S(?O)2NR1—, then Q1 is an aryl leader group; and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, amides, esters, ethers, chemically protected forms, and prodrugs thereof. The present invention also pertains to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and the use of such compounds and compositions, both in vitro and in vivo, to inhibit HDAC, and, e.g., to inhibit proliferative conditions, such as cancer and psoriasis.
