Title:
THERAPEUTIC ACRIDONE AND ACRIDINE COMPOUNDS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002008193
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention pertains to acridone and acridine compounds of formula (I), wherein either: (a) K is =O, L is -H, alpha is a single bond, beta is a double bond, gamma is a single bond (acridones); or, (b) K is a 9-substituent, L is absent, alpha is a double bond, beta is a single bond, gamma is a double bond (acridines); and wherein: J<1> is a 2- or 3-substituent; J<2> is a 6- or 7-substituent; J<1> and J<2> are each independently a group of the formula -NHCO(CH2)nNR<1>R<2>, wherein: n is an integer from 1 to 5; and, R<1> and R<2> are independently hydrogen, C1-7alkyl, C3-20heterocyclyl, or C5-20aryl, or R<1> and R<2>, taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached, form a heterocyclic ring having from 3 to 8 ring atoms; and wherein, when K is a 9-substituent, K is a group of the formula -N(R)Q, wherein: R is an amino substituent and is hydrogen, C1-7alkyl, C3-20heterocyclyl, or C5-20aryl; and, Q is C1-7alkyl, C3-20heterocyclyl, or C5-20aryl, and is optionally substituted; and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, esters, amides, solvates, hydrates, and protected forms thereof. The present invention also pertains to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and the use of such compounds and compositions, both in vitro and in vivo, to inhibit telomerase, to regulate cell prol iferation, and in the treatment of proliferative conditions, such as cancer.
