Patent number: 9096559Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel class of 4-carboxybenzylamino derivatives. The 4-carboxybenzylamino compounds can be used to treat cancer. The 4-carboxybenzylamino compounds can also inhibit histone deacetylase and are suitable for use in selectively inducing terminal differentiation, and arresting cell growth and/or apoptosis of neoplastic cells, thereby inhibiting proliferation of such cells. Thus, the compounds of the present invention are useful in treating a patient having a tumor characterized by proliferation of neoplastic cells. The compounds of the invention may also be useful in the prevention and treatment of TRX-mediated diseases, such as autoimmune, allergic and inflammatory diseases, and in the prevention and/or treatment of diseases of the central nervous system (CNS), such as neurodegenerative diseases.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2013Date of Patent: August 4, 2015Assignee: Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp.Inventors: Paul Harrington, Richard W. Heidebrecht, Jr., Solomon Kattar, Thomas A. Miller, Karin M. Otte, Phieng Siliphaivanh, Matthew G. Stanton, Paul Tempest, Kevin J. Wilson, David J. Witter
