Chemical agents, such as disulfonamide derivatives of fluorene, anthracene, xanthene, dibenzosuberone and acridine, and similar heterocyclic ring structures, including salts thereof, that act as anti-cancer and anti-tumor agents, especially where such agents modulate the activity of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, and serve to reduce β-catenin levels present in cells, such as cancer cells, or where the agents modulate levels of gene expression in cellular systems, including cancer cells, are disclosed, along with methods for preparing such agents, as well as pharmaceutical compositions containing such agents as active ingredients and methods of using these as therapeutic agents.
本发明公开了一种化学剂,其为萤光烯、蒽、黄色素、二苯并[2,3-b:3',2'-e]苯酮和吖啶的二磺酰胺衍生物,以及类似的杂环环结构和其盐,可作为抗癌和抗肿瘤药物,特别是这些药物可以调节Wnt/β-连环蛋白信号通路的活性,并降低细胞中(如癌细胞)存在的β-连环蛋白水平,或者这些药物可以调节细胞系统(包括癌细胞)中的基因表达水平。本发明还公开了制备这些化学剂的方法,以及包含这些化学剂作为活性成分的制药组合物和使用这些组合物作为治疗剂的方法。
