(EN) This invention relates to compounds that inhibit farnesyl-protein transferase and ras protein farnesylation, thereby making them useful as anti-cancer agents. The compounds are also useful in the treatment of diseases, other than cancer, associated with signal transduction pathways operating through ras and those associated with proteins other than ras that are also post-translationally modified by the enzyme farnesyl protein transferase. The compounds may also act as inhibitors of other prenyl transferases, and thus be effective in the treatment of diseases associated with other prenyl modifications of proteins.(FR) La présente invention concerne des composés inhibant la farnésyl-transférase et la farnésylation de la protéine Ras, ce qui en fait d'utiles agents anticancéreux. Ces composés conviennent également particulièrement au traitement de maladies autres que le cancer, associées aux canaux de transduction de signaux par la protéine Ras, et de maladies associées à des protéines autres que les protéines Ras qui subissent une modification post-translationnelle sous l'effet de la farnésyl-transférase. Ces composés se comportent également comme inhibiteurs d'autres prényl-transférases, et peuvent de ce fait convenir au traitement d'affections associées à d'autres modifications prényl des protéines.
