Abstract: There is provided a compound of formula I and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts and esters thereof wherein X1, X2, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6 are herein described. The compounds exhibit activity as anticancer agents.

Abstract: Novel intermediate compounds are disclosed. These compounds are useful in the synthesis of 4-aminopyrimidine-5-one derivatives that inhibit cyclin-dependent kinases, in particular cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (Cdk4). The 4-aminopyrimidine-5-one derivatives and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts have antiproliferative activity and are useful in the treatment or control of cancer, in particular solid tumors.

Abstract: The present invention provides compounds of formula I wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 are described herein. The invention also provides syntheses for preparation of such compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing them. The invention further provides methods for inhibiting kinases, in particular CDK2, for inhibiting angiogenesis, and for treating cancers, in particular breast, colon, prostate, and lung cancer.

Abstract: Novel 2,6-diaminopyridine derivatives of formula wherein R1 and R2 are as defined below, are disclosed. These compounds inhibit cyclin-dependent kinases. These compounds and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts and esters have antiproliferative activity and are useful in the treatment or control of cancer, in particular solid tumors. This invention is also directed to pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds and to methods of treating or controlling cancer, most particularly the treatment or control of breast, lung, colon and prostate tumors. Also disclosed are intermediates useful in the preparation of these novel 2,6-diaminopyridine derivatives.

Abstract: Disclosed are novel 4-amino-thieno[3,2-c]pyridine-7-carboxylic acid amides, and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts and esters, that are selective inhibitors of KDR and/or FGFR kinases. These compounds and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are anti-proliferative agents useful in the treatment or control of solid tumors, in particular solid cancerous tumors of the breast, colon, lung and prostate. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds and methods of treating cancer using these compounds.
