The present invention pertains generally to the field of therapeutic compounds for treating proliferative disorders, cancer, etc., and more specifically to certain aryl-quinolyl compounds, as described herein, which, inter alia, inhibit RAF (e.g., B-RAF) activity. The present invention also pertains to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and the use of such compounds and compositions, both in vitro and in vivo, to inhibit RAF (e.g., BRAF) activity, to inhibit receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) activity, to inhibit cell proliferation, and in the treatment of diseases and disorders that are ameliorated by the inhibition of RAF, RTK, etc., proliferative disorders such as cancer (e.g., colorectal cancer, melanoma), etc.
本发明一般涉及治疗增殖性疾病、癌症等的治疗化合物领域,更具体地涉及本文所述的某些芳基
喹啉化合物,该化合物在诸多方面抑制了
RAF(例如B-
RAF)活性。本发明还涉及包含这种化合物的药物组合物,以及利用这种化合物和组合物在体外和体内抑制
RAF(例如B
RAF)活性,抑制受体
酪氨酸激酶(RTK)活性,抑制细胞增殖,并用于治疗通过抑制
RAF、RTK等而得到改善的疾病和疾病,如癌症(例如结直肠癌、
黑色素瘤)等。
