摘要:
The present invention relates to compounds of general formula (I). wherein A represents an optionally substituted heterocyclyl group, B represents an aryl or heteroaryl group and wherein X, R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 are as defined in the description. Compounds of formula (I) are useful to destroy, inhibit, or prevent the growth or spread of cells, especially malignant cells, into surrounding tissues implicated in a variety of human and animal diseases

Disclosed is a method for treating patients afflicted with non-aggressive or moderately aggressive amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) whose rate of change of the revised Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale (ALSFRS-R) prior to treatment initiation is
摘要:
A method for treating patients afflicted with cancer (including hematological malignancies) or viral infections, wherein the patients are under treatment or are to be treated with at least one anticancer or antiviral agent, and in particular (deoxy)nucleotide or (deoxy)nucleoside analog drugs, includes administering at least one small molecule inhibitor/activator (including ATP competitive inhibitors, signal transduction inhibitors/activators, protein kinase inhibitors/activators, and tyrosine kinase inhibitors/activators) in combination with the (deoxy) nucleotide or (deoxy)nucleoside analog, and wherein the small molecule inhibitor/activator is administered in sufficient amount to modulate deoxynucleotide or deoxynucleoside kinase activity (and in particular deoxycytidine kinase activity) to modulate activation of the (deoxy)nucleotide or (deoxy)nucleoside analog in vivo with a subsequent therapeutically beneficial anticancer or antiviral effect. The combined treatments together include a therapeutically effective amount.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for treating patients afflicted with cancer, wherein said patients are treated with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, mast cell inhibitor or c-Kit inhibitor, in particular masitinib, optionally in combination with at least one antineoplastic agent. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor, mast cell inhibitor or c-Kit inhibitor, and the optional at least one antineoplastic agent, are administered in a dosage regimen that comprises a therapeutically effective amount. The present invention also relates to methods for predicting therapeutic response to said treatment in a given patient and therefore identification of applicable patient subpopulations based upon these predictor factors; sometimes referred to as biomarkers. One method is based upon the clinical marker of pain intensity. The second method is based upon gene expression predictive biomarkers assessed via RNA expression in peripheral blood cell samples collected prior to treatment with a compound of the invention (i.e. a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, mast cell inhibitor or c-Kit inhibitor, especially masitinib). Advantageously, the present invention relates to a method for treating patients afflicted with pancreatic cancer wherein said patients are treated with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, mast cell inhibitor or c-Kit inhibitor, and in particular masitinib, optionally in combination with at least one antineoplastic agent, and in particular gemcitabine.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an in vitro method for determining the prognosis of pancreatic cancer in a patient. More particularly, this method comprises the following steps: c) measuring the expression level of at least two genes chosen in the group consisting in: ING5, RUNDC1, ABCC1, FGFR3, S100A6, ANKRD55, and CD8A or homologous genes, in a blood sample of said patient, d) predicting the outcome of the pancreatic cancer in said patient. The invention also relates to a kit specifically designed to carry out such a method.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for treating inflammatory muscle disorders including myositis and muscular dystrophy comprising administering a compound capable of depleting mast cells or a compound inhibiting mast cell degranulation, to a human in need of such treatment. Such compounds can be chosen from c-kit inhibitors and more particularly non-toxic, selective and potent c-kit inhibitors. Preferably, said inhibitor is unable to promote death of IL-3 dependent cells cultured in presence of IL-3.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for treating CNS disorders, more particularly selected from the group consisting of depression, schizophrenia, anxiety, migraine, memory loss, pain and neurodegenerative diseases, comprising administering a compound capable of depleting mast cells to a human in need of such treatment. Such compounds can be chosen from tyrosine kinase inhibitors and more particularly non-toxic, selective and potent c-kit inhibitors. Preferably, said inhibitor is unable to promote death of IL-3 dependent cells cultured in presence of IL-3.
