  • Patent number: 9695178
    Abstract: The hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway is a pathway which regulates patterning, growth and cell migration during embryonic development, but in adulthood is limited to tissue maintenance and repair. Mutational inactivation of the inhibitory pathway components leads to constitutive ligand-independent activation of the Hh signaling pathway, results in cancers such as basal cell carcinoma and medulloblastoma. Ligand-dependent activation of Hh signaling is involved in prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer and some blood cancers. Therefore, inhibition of the aberrant Hh signaling represents a promising approach toward novel anticancer therapy. The present invention provides novel molecules of formula I that inhibit hedgehog pathway signaling and provides therapeutic applications for the treatment of malignancies (basal cell carcinoma, medulloblastoma, glioblastoma, non-small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, blood cancers, mesenchymal cancers, etc.

  • Patent number: 9695191
    Abstract: Conformationally restricted, spatially defined 12-30 membered macrocyclic ring systems of type (I) are constituted by three distinct building blocks: an aromatic template a, a conformation modulator b and a spacer moiety c as detailed in the description and the claims. Macrocycles of type (I) are readily manufactured by parallel synthesis or combinatorial chemistry. They are designed to interact with specific biological targets. In particular, they show agonistic or antagonistic activity on the motilin receptor (MR receptor), on the serotonin receptor of subtype 5-HT2B (5-HT2B receptor), and on the prostaglandin F2•receptor (FP receptor). They are thus potentially useful for the treatment of hypomotility disorders of the gastrointestinal tract such as diabetic gastroparesis and constipation type irritable bowl syndrome; of CNS related diseases like migraine, schizophrenia, psychosis or depression; of ocular hypertension such as associated with glaucoma and preterm labour.

  • Patent number: 9695201
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing trialkylmetal compounds of the general formula R3M (where M=metal of group IIIA of the Periodic Table of the Elements (PTE), preferably gallium or indium, and R=C1-C5-alkyl, preferably methyl or ethyl). The process is based on the reaction of metal trichloride (MeCl3) with alkylaluminium sesquichloride (R3Al2Cl3) in the presence of at least one alkali metal halide as auxiliary base. The reaction mixture is heated to a temperature above 120° C. and the trialkylmetal compound is separated off from the reaction mixture via a separator, with partially alkylated products being at the same time recirculated to the reaction mixture. In a further step, the reaction mixture is heated to a maximum of 350° C. and the remaining alkylated and partially alkylated products are separated off. The products obtained in this way can optionally be recycled in the process.
