MDM2 and MDM4 proteins prevent apoptosis of cancer cells by negatively regulating the transcription factor p53. Compounds according to Formula I
are selective antagonists of MDM2 and MDM4 proteins, disrupting the p53/MDM2 and p53/MDM4 complex. These compounds therefore are candidate therapeutics for treating cancer as well as other cell proliferative disease states.
