  • Publication number: 20130178483
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and compounds for inhibiting bone and/or cartilage resorption in an individual. The methods comprise administering to the individual a composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a compound that is an irreversible inhibitor of a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Also described are irreversible inhibitors of Btk and methods for the preparation of the compounds. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions that include the compounds. Methods of using the Btk inhibitors are disclosed, alone or in combination with other therapeutic agents, for the inhibition of cancer metastasis, and for inhibition of bone or cartilage resorption in cancer patients.

  • Patent number: 8389570
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to certain hydroxamate derivatives that are useful in the treatment of hepatitis C. These compounds are also inhibitors of histone deacetylase and are therefore useful in the treatment of diseases associated with histone deacetylase activity. Pharmaceutical compositions and processes for preparing these compounds are also disclosed.
