  • Publication number: 20080004259
    Abstract: The instant invention provides for compounds which comprise substituted indolyl indazoles that inhibit CHK1 activity. The instant compounds provide a novel mechanism of action with unexpected advantageous properties; such unexpected advantageous properties may include increased cellular potency/solubility, greater selectivity, enhanced pharmacokinetic properties, lack of off target activity and so on. The invention also provides for compositions comprising such inhibitory compounds and methods of inhibiting CHK1 activity by administering the compound to a patient in need of treatment of cancer.

  • Publication number: 20060134767
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to the identification, characterization and three-dimensional structure of a novel ligand binding site of KSP. Binding of ligands to the novel binding site result in a conformational change in the three-dimensional structure of the protein and a modulation of the activity of KSP. This conformational change in turn results in the formation of a novel binding pocket in the KSP protein, which comprises the novel binding site of the instant invention.
