  • Publication number: 20150246913
    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.
