20090209590 | Histone Deacetylase and Tubulin Deacetylase Inhibitors - In recognition of the need to develop novel therapeutic agents and efficient methods for the synthesis thereof, the present invention provides novel inhibitors of histone deacetylases, tubulin deacetylases, and/or aggresome inhibitors, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts and derivatives thereof. The inventive compounds fall into two classes—“isotubacin” class and “isoisotubacin” class—all of which include a 1,3-dioxane core. The present invention further provides methods for treating disorders regulated by histone deacetylase activity, tubulin deacetylase activity, and/or the aggresome (e.g., proliferative diseases, cancer, inflammatory diseases, protozoal infections, protein degradation disorders, protein deposition disorders, etc.) comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of an inventive compound to a subject in need thereof. The present invention also provides methods for preparing compounds of the invention. | 08-20-2009 |
20090312363 | BIFUNCTIONAL HISTONE DEACETYLASE INHIBITORS - In recognition of the need to develop novel therapeutic agents and efficient methods for the synthesis thereof, the present invention provides novel bifunctional, trifunctional, or multifunctional compounds for inhibiting histone deacetylases, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts and derivatives thereof. The present invention further provides methods for treating disorders regulated by histone deacetylase activity (e.g., proliferative diseases, cancer, inflammatory diseases, protozoal infections, hair loss, etc.) comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of an inventive compound to a subject in need thereof. The present invention also provides methods for preparing compounds of the invention. | 12-17-2009 |
20100056588 | HISTONE DEACETYLASE INHIBITORS - In recognition of the need to develop novel therapeutic agents, the present invention provides novel histone deacetylase inhibitors. These compounds include an ester bond making them sensitive to deactivation by esterases. Therefore, these compounds are particularly useful in the treatment of skin disorders. When the compounds reaches the bloodstream, an esterase or an enzyme with esterase activity cleaves the compound into biologically inactive fragments or fragments with greatly reduced activity Ideally these degradation products exhibit a short serum and/or systemic half-life and are eliminated rapidly. These compounds and pharmaceutical compositions thereof are particularly useful in treating cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, neurofibromatosis, psoriasis, hair loss, skin pigmentation, and dermatitis, for example. The present invention also provides methods for preparing compounds of the invention and intermediates thereto. | 03-04-2010 |
20110172303 | DEACETYLASE INHIBITORS AND USES THEREOF - The present invention provides novel compounds of formula (I) and pharmaceutical compositions thereof. The inventive compounds are useful as deacetylase inhibitors (e.g., histone deacetylase inhibitors) and may be useful in the treatment of proliferative diseases such as cancer. In particular, the inventive compounds are HDAC6 inhibitors. The invention also provide synthetic methods for preparing the inventive compounds. | 07-14-2011 |
20120208889 | CLASS- AND ISOFORM-SPECIFIC HDAC INHIBITORS AND USES THEREOF - HDAC inhibitors of the general formula (I) and (II) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, as described herein, are useful as inhibitors of histone deacetylases or other deacetylases, and thus are useful for the treatment of various diseases and disorders associated with acetylase/deacetylase activity as described herein (e.g., cancer). In certain embodiments, the compounds of the invention selectively target either a class or isoform of the HDAC family. Another aspect of the invention provides an assay for determining the inhibitory effect of a test compound on an HDAC protein comprising: incubating the HDAC protein with a substrate of general formula (IIIc) in the presence of a test compound; and determining the activity of the HDAC protein. | 08-16-2012 |
