- Benzo[b]thiophene-based histone deacetylase inhibitors
-
Benzo[b]thienyl hydroxamic acids, a novel class of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, were identified via a targeted screen of small molecule hydroxamic acids. Various substitutions were explored in the C5- and C6-positions of the benzo[b]thiophene co

- HYDROXAMIC ACID DERVICATIVES AS INHIBITORS OF HDAC ENZYMATIC ACTIVITY
-
Compounds of formula (I) are inhibitors of histone deacetylase activity, and are useful in the treatment of, for example, cancers: formula (I) wherein Y1 is a bond, -(C=O)-, -S(O2)-, -C(=O)O-, -OC(=O)-, -(C=O)NR3, -NR3(C=O)-, -S(O2)NR3-, -NR3S(O2)-, or -NR3(C=O)NR5-, wherein R3 and R5 are independently hydrogen or optionally substituted (C1-C6)alkyl, L1 is a divalent radical of formula -(Alk1)m(Q)n(Alk2)p- wherein m, n, p, AIk1, AIk2 and Q are as defined in the claims; z is O or 1 ; A represents an optionally substituted mono-, bi- or tri-cyclic carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring system; -[Linker]- represents a divalent linker radical; R is a radical of formula (X) or (Y); wherein R1 is a carboxylic acid group (-COOH), or an ester group which is hydrolysable by one or more intracellular carboxylesterase enzymes to a carboxylic acid group; R4 is hydrogen; or optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl, C3-C7cycloalkyl, aryl, aryl(C1-C6 alkyl)-, heteroaryl, heteroaryl(C1-C6 alkyl)-, -(C=O)R3, -(C=O)OR3, or -(C=O)NR3 wherein R3 is hydrogen or optionally substituted (C1-C6)alkyl, C3-C7 cycloalkyl, aryl, aryl(C1-C6 alkyl)-, heteroaryl, or heteroary(C1-C6 alkyl)-; R41 is hydrogen or optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl; and B is a monocyclic heterocyclic ring of 5 or 6 ring atoms wherein R1 is linked to a ring carbon adjacent the ring nitrogen shown, and ring B is optionally fused to a second carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring of 5 or 6 ring atoms in which case the bond shown intersected by a wavy line may be from a ring atom in said second ring.

- ENZYME INHIBITORS
-
Compounds of formula (I) are inhibitors of histone deacetylase activity, and are useful in the treatment of, for example, cancers, wherein R1 is a carboxylic acid group (-COOH), or an ester group which is hydrolysable by one or more intracellular carboxyesterase enzymes to a carboxylic acid group; R2is the side chain of a natural or non-natural alpha amino acid; Y is a bond, -C(=O)-, -S(=O)2-, -C(=O)O-, -C(O)NR3-, -C(=S)-NR3 , -C(=NH)NR3 or -S(=O)2NR3- wherein R3 is hydrogen or optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl; L1 is a divalent radical of formula -(Alk1)m(Q)n(Alk2)p- wherein m, n and p are independently 0 or 1 , Q is (i) an optionally substituted divalent mono- or bicyclic carbocyclic or heterocyclic radical having 5 - 13 ring members, or (ii), in the case where both m and p are 0, a divalent radical of formula -X2-Q1- or -Q1-X2- wherein X2 is -O-, S- or NRA- wherein RA is hydrogen or optionally substituted C1-C3 alkyl, and Q1 is an optionally substituted divalent mono- or bicyclic carbocyclic or heterocyclic radical having 5 - 13 ring members, AIk1 and AIk2 independently represent optionally substituted divalent C3-C7 cycloalkyl radicals, or optionally substituted straight or branched, C1-C6 alkylene, C2-C6 alkenylene ,or C2-C6 alkynylene radicals which may optionally contain or terminate in an ether (-O-), thioether (-S-) or amino (-NRA-) link wherein RA is hydrogen or optionally substituted C1-C3 alkyl; X1 represents a bond; -C(=O); or -S(=O)2-; -NR4C(=O)-, -C(=O)NR4-, -NR4C(=O)NR5- , -NR4S(=O)2-, or -S(=O)2NR4-wherein R4 and R5 are independently hydrogen or optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl; z is 0 or 1 ; A represents an optionally substituted mono-, bi- or tri-cyclic carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring system wherein the radicals R1R2NH-Y-L1-X1-[CH2]Z- and HONHCO-[LINKER]- are attached different ring atoms; and -[Linker]- represents a divalent linker radical linking a ring atom in A with the hydroxamic acid group CONHOH, the length of the linker radical, from the terminal atom linked to the ring atom of A to the terminal atom linked to the hydroxamic acid group, is equivalent to that of an unbranched saturated hydrocarbon chain of from 3-10 carbon atoms.

- BENZOTHIOPHENE DERIVATIVES
-
The present invention relates to a novel class of benzothiophene amide derivatives. The hydroxamic acid compounds can be used to treat cancer. The benzothiophene amide compounds can also inhibit histone deacetylase and are suitable for use in selectively inducing terminal differentiation, and arresting cell growth and/or apoptosis of neoplastic cells, thereby inhibiting proliferation of such cells. Thus, the compounds of the present invention are useful in treating a patient having a tumor characterized by proliferation of neoplastic cells. The compounds of the invention may also be useful in the prevention and treatment of TRX-mediated diseases, such as autoimmune, allergic and inflammatory diseases, and in the prevention and/or treatment of diseases of the central nervous system (CNS), such as neurodegenerative diseases. The present invention further provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising the hydroxamic acid derivatives and safe dosing regimens of these pharmaceutical compositions, which are easy to follow, and which result in a therapeutically effective amount of the hydroxamic acid derivatives in vivo.
