The present invention relates to a novel class of 4-carboxybenzylamino derivatives. The 4-carboxybenzylamino compounds can be used to treat cancer. The 4-carboxybenzylamino compounds can also inhibit histone deacetylase and are suitable for use in selectively inducing terminal differentiation, and arresting cell growth and/or apoptosis of neoplastic cells, thereby inhibiting proliferation of such cells. Thus, the compounds of the present invention are useful in treating a patient having a tumor characterized by proliferation of neoplastic cells. The compounds of the invention may also be useful in the prevention and treatment of TRX-mediated diseases, such as autoimmune, allergic and inflammatory diseases, and in the prevention and/or treatment of diseases of the central nervous system (CNS), such as neurodegenerative diseases. The present invention further provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising the 4-carboxybenzylamino derivatives and safe dosing regimens of these pharmaceutical compositions, which are easy to follow, and which result in a therapeutically effective amount of the 4-carboxybenzylamino derivatives in vivo.
本发明涉及一种新型的4-羧基苯甲酰胺衍生物。这些4-羧基苯甲酰胺化合物可用于治疗癌症。这些4-羧基苯甲酰胺化合物还可以抑制组蛋白去乙酰化酶,并适用于选择性诱导末端分化,阻止肿瘤细胞生长和/或凋亡,从而抑制这些细胞的增殖。因此,本发明的化合物在治疗具有肿瘤细胞增殖特征的患者方面是有用的。本发明的化合物还可以用于预防和治疗TRX介导的疾病,如自身免疫性、过敏性和炎症性疾病,并用于预防和/或治疗中枢神经系统(CNS)疾病,如神经退行性疾病。本发明还提供了包含这些4-羧基苯甲酰胺衍生物的药物组合物以及这些药物组合物的安全剂量方案,这些方案易于遵循,并在体内产生治疗有效量的4-羧基苯甲酰胺衍生物。
