FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The invention relates to chemical compounds having kinase inhibitory activity and their use in the treatment of diseases and conditions associated with inappropriate kinase activity.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Protein kinases are key elements in signal transduction pathways responsible for transducing extracellular signals to the nuclei, triggering various biological events. [Schlessinger, J. and Ullrich, A., "Growth factor signaling by receptor tyrosine kinases," Neuron, 9:383-391 (1992)] The many roles of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) in normal cell physiology include cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, cell mobility and mitogenesis. [Plowman et al., "Receptor tyrosine kinases as targets for drug intervention," DN&P, 7:334-339 (1994)].

[0003] Protein kinases include, for example, but are not limited to, extracellular signal-regulated kinases, p42/ERK.sup.2 and p44/ERK1; c-Jun NH.sub.2-terminal kinase (JNK); cAMP-responsive element-binding protein kinases (CREB); cAMP-dependent kinase (CAPK); mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase (MAPKAP); stress-activated protein kinase p38/SAPK2; mitogen-and stress-activated kinase (MSK); p185.sup.neu/Her-2/erbB-2; platelet derived growth factor receptor kinase (PDGFR); colony stimulating factor-1 receptor kinase (CSF1-R); endothelial growth factor receptor kinase (EGF-R); vascular endothelial growth factor kinase (VEGF-R); fibroblast growth factor receptor kinase (FGF-R); protein kinases, PKA, PKC and PKC-.alpha.; serine/threonine protein kinase (STK); the Janus family of tyrosine protein kinases, JAK1, JAK2 and JAK 3; human insulin receptor tyrosine kinase; the Src-family of cytoplasmic PTKs, p60.sup.c-arc, c-Src, Hck, Fgr and Lyn; Abelson leukemia virus PTK (c-Abl); p56.sup.fyn (FYN); p56.sup.lck (LCK); cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK1, CDK2, CDK3 and CDK4); NGF receptor kinase (Trk); Alk receptor kinase; IKK-.beta. kinase; Ax1/Ufo kinase; Rse/Sky kinase; Syk kinase; ZAP-70 kinase; NIK kinase; Yrk kinase; Fyk kinase; Blk kinase; Csk kinase; Tie-1 and Tie-2 kinase; TrkA, TrkB and Trk C kinases; and human growth factor kinase (HGF).

[0004] The disruption of the norrnal functions of kinases has been implicated in many human diseases, including cancer, diabetes, restenosis, atherosclerosis, fibrosis of the liver and kidney and psoriasis. [Powis, G. and Workman, P., "Signaling targets for the development of cancer drugs," Anti-Cancer Drug Design, 9:263-277 (1994); Cantley et al., "Oncogenes and signal transduction," Cell, 64:281-302 (1991); Kolibaba, K. S. and Druker, B. J., "Protein tyrosine kinase and cancer," Biochim Biophys Acta, 1333:F217-F248 (1997); Merenmies et al., "Receptor tyrosine kinase signaling in vascular development," Cell Growth Differ, 8:3-10 (1997); Lavelle, F., "American Association for Cancer Research 1997: Progress and New Hope in the Fight Against Cancer," Exp Opin Invest Drugs, 6:771-775 (1997); and Shawver et al., "Receptor tyrosine kinases as targets for inhibition of angiogenesis," Drug Discovery Today, 2:50-63 (1997)] In fact, about 30% of human breast and ovarian cancer patients have exhibited increased expression of Her-2 (p185.sup.neu). [Plowman et al., "Receptor tyrosine kinases as targets for drug intervention," DN&P, 7:334-339 (1994)] Platelet-derived growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases have been associated with human malignancies, arterial restenosis, and fibrosis of the liver, lung and kidney. Colony stimulating factor-1 receptor has been implicated in bone remodeling and hematopoiesis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a homodimeric peptide growth factor which binds to two structurally related tyrosine kinase receptors denoted Flt1 and KDR. [Waltenberger et al. (Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research, Uppsala Branch, Sweden), "Different signal transduction properties of KDR and Flt1, two receptors for vascular endothelial growth factor," J. Biol. Chem., 269:26988-95 (1994)]. VEGF receptor tyrosine kinases have been implicated in tumor angiogenesis, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, and ocular diseases. [Shawver et al., "Receptor tyrosine kinases as targets for inhibition of angiogenesis," Drug Discovery Today, 2:50-63 (1997)]

[0006] Inappropriate protein kinase activities thus represent attractive targets for therapeutic intervention and in fact, several small molecule kinase inhibitor compounds have been disclosed. Natural products such as staurosporine, lavendustin A, erbstatin, genistein and flavopiridol for example, have been shown to be effective kinase inhibitors. In addition, a number of synthetic tyrosine kinase inhibitors have also been introduced. [McMahon et al., "Protein kinase inhibitors: structural determinants for target specificity," Drug Discovery & Development, 1:131-146 (1998)]. The present invention relates to novel compounds effective as inhibitors of inappropriate kinase activities.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
