  • Patent number: 5646153
    Abstract: This invention relates to bis mono- and/or bicyclic aryl and/or heteroaryl compounds exhibiting protein tyrosine kinase inhibition activity. More specifically, it relates to the method of inhibiting abnormal cell proliferation in a patient suffering from a disorder characterized by such proliferation comprising the administration thereto of an EGF and/or PDGF receptor inhibiting effective amount of said bis mono- and/or bicyclic aryl and/or heteroaryl compound and to the preparation of said compounds and their use in pharmaceutical compositions used in this method.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 11, 1995
    Date of Patent: July 8, 1997
    Assignee: Rhone-Poulenc Rorer Pharmaceuticals Inc.
    Inventors: Alfred P. Spada, Michael R. Myers, Martin P. Maguire, Paul E. Persons
  • Patent number: 5597837
    Abstract: Methods of inhibiting cell proliferation in a patient suffering from such disorder comprising the use of a styryl-substituted heteroaryl compound wherein the heteroaryl group is a monocyclic ring with 1 or 2 heteroatoms, or a bicyclic ring with 1 to about 4 heteroatoms, said compound optionally substituted or polysubstituted, with the proviso that when said ring is polysubstituted, the substituents do not have a common point of attachment to said ring, and those compounds wherein no substituent on the heteroaryl group is a carboxy group or an ester group, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5476851
    Abstract: This invention relates to pyrazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline compounds exhibiting protein tyrosine kinase inhibition activity of the formula: ##STR1## where: ------ may be a double bond;R, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are as described in claim 1;a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.More specifically, compounds of this invention are novel as selective inhibitors of the PDGF-R protein tyrosine kinase and can be applied as potential therapeutic agents for various disease states which are characterized by uncontrolled cellular proliferation. Further, the present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions and a method for treating such disorders comprising the administration to a patient of a PDGF receptor inhibiting effective amount of a pyrazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline compound exhibiting protein tyrosine kinase inhibition activity. Processes for the preparation of pyrazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline compounds are also described.
