Abstract:
Disclosed herein are small molecule, non-peptidyl inhibitors of protein tyrosine kinases, and methods for their use. The instant inhibitors are based on a 1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one nucleus. A compound represented by structural formula (I), where R1, R2 and R3 are independently described as Y bonded to W, where Y is a 0-6 atom straight or branched saturated or unsaturated chain group comprising C, N, O or S as shown in Table 1, and W is hydrogen or any three membered, four membered, five membered, six membered or fused bicyclic ring system comprising C, N, O or S as shown in Tables 4-9; X is separately and independently selected from Table 2; and salts of said compound. Methods are provided for inhibition of specific protein tyrosine kinases, for example pp60 . Methods are further provided for the use of these inhibitors in situations where the inhibition of a protein tyrosine kinase is indicated, for example, in the treatment of certain diseases in mammals, including humans.
