  • Patent number: 6939874
    Abstract: The invention encompasses compounds, analogs, prodrugs and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, pharmaceutical compositions, uses and methods for prophylaxis and treatment of cancer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 21, 2002
    Date of Patent: September 6, 2005
    Assignee: Amgen Inc.
    Inventors: Jean-Christophe Harmange, John L. Buchanan, Stuart Chaffee, Perry M. Novak, Simon Van Der Plas, Xiaotian Zhu
  • Publication number: 20050070554
    Abstract: The present invention relates to tetracyclic pyrimidines or pyridines or pharmaceutically-acceptable salts or derivatives thereof. Also included are methods of use of the tetracyclic pyrimidines or pyridines including use related to treating inflammation, inhibiting T cell activation and proliferation, arthritis, organ transplant, ischemic or reperfusion injury, myocardial infarction, stroke, multiple sclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease and many other related disorders in a subject, the methods comprising administering a therapeutically-effective amount a compound as described above to the subject.

  • Publication number: 20040204863
    Abstract: The invention relates to the three-dimensional structure of a crystal of a kinase enzyme complexed with a ligand. The three-dimensional structure of a protein kinase-ligand complex is disclosed. The invention also relates to methods of preparing such crystals. Kinase-ligand crystal structures wherein the ligand is an inhibitor molecule are useful for providing structural information that may be integrated into drug screening and drug design processes. Thus, the invention also relates to methods of using the crystal structure of kinase enzyme-ligand complexes for identifying, designing, selecting, or testing inhibitors of kinase enzymes, such inhibitors being useful as therapeutics for the treatment or modulation of i) diseases; ii) disease symptoms; or iii) the effect of other physiological events mediated by kinases; having one or more kinase enzymes involved in their pathology.
    Type: Application

    Publication date: October 14, 2004
    Applicant: Amgen Inc.
    Inventors: Joseph L. Kim, Kurt A. Morgenstern, Paul E. Rose, Xiaotian Zhu
  • Publication number: 20040116388
    Abstract: The invention relates to inhibitors of enzymes that bind to ATP or GTP and/or catalyze phosphoryl transfer, compositions comprising the inhibitors, and methods of using the inhibitors and inhibitor compositions. The inhibitors and compositions comprising them are useful for treating disease or disease symptoms. The invention also provides for methods of making phosphoryl transferase inhibitor compounds, methods of inhibiting phosphoryl transferase activity, and methods for treating disease or disease symptoms.
