  • Patent number: 10112927
    Abstract: The present invention provides novel compounds of Formula (I), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, polymorphs, co-crystals, tautomers, stereoisomers, isotopically labeled derivatives, prodrugs, and compositions thereof. Also provided are methods and kits involving the inventive compounds or compositions for treating or preventing proliferative diseases (e.g., cancers (e.g., leukemia, lymphoma, melanoma, multiple myeloma, breast cancer, Ewing's sarcoma, osteosarcoma, brain cancer, neuroblastoma, lung cancer), benign neoplasms, angiogenesis, inflammatory diseases, autoinflammatory diseases, and autoimmune diseases) in a subject. Treatment of a subject with a proliferative disease using a compound or composition of the invention may inhibit the aberrant activity of a kinase, such as cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) (e.g., cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7)), and therefore, induce cellular apoptosis and/or inhibit transcription in the subject.

  • Patent number: 10000483
    Abstract: The present invention provides novel compounds of Formula (I), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, polymorphs, co-crystals, tautomers, stereoisomers, isotopically labeled derivatives, prodrugs, and compositions thereof. Also provided are methods and kits involving the compounds of Formula (I) or (II), or compositions thereof, for treating or preventing a wide range of diseases (e.g., proliferative diseases (e.g., cancers, benign neoplasms, angiogenesis, inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases) and metabolic diseases (e.g., diabetes (e.g., type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes)) in a subject. Treatment of a subject with a disease using a compound of Formula (I) or (II), or compositions thereof, may downregulate the expression and/or inhibit the activity of a kinase (e.g., a tyrosine kinase, such as a Tec kinase, in particular, bone marrow on X chromosome kinase (BMX)), and therefore, suppress tyrosine kinase singling in the subject.
