  • Publication number: 20200024271
    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.

  • Patent number: 6673586
    Abstract: The present invention features a novel p21-activated kinase that interacts with steroid hormone receptors, the steroid hormone receptor interacting p21-activated kinase (PAKSI). In general, the invention provides methods of inhibiting hormone related cancers. More particularly, the present invention relates to inhibiting prostate cancer and breast cancer. The present invention further provides methods of activating the therapeutic effects of steroid hormone receptors, particularly the estrogen receptor. Alternatively, the present invention provides methods of diagnosing steroid hormone receptor-related diseases.
