In order to find novel nonsteroidal compounds possessing an inhibitory activity against delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) reactions, we conducted random screening using a picryl chloride (PC)-induced contact hypersensitivity reaction (CHR) in mice, and found compound 1 as a lead compound. Then we synthesized and evaluated an extensive series of 5-carboxamidouracil derivatives focused on both the
Conformationally restricted, spatially defined 12-30 membered macrocyclic ring systems of formulae Ia and Ib are constituted by three distinct molecular parts: Template A, conformation Modulator B and Bridge C. These macrocycles Ia and Ib are readily manufactured by parallel synthesis or combinatorial chemistry in solution or on solid phase. They are designed to interact with a variety of specific biological target classes, examples being the agonistic or antagonistic activity on G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), ion channels and signal transduction pathways. In particular, these macrocycles act as antagonists of the motilin receptor, the FP receptor and the purinergic receptors P2Y

1.3 and as inhibitors of the β-catenin-dependent “canonical” Wnt pathway. Thus they are showing great potential as medicaments for a variety of diseases.
The present invention relates to compounds of the formula
medicaments containing them and the use of these compounds as pharmaceutically active agents. The compounds exhibit activity as Raf kinase inhibitors and therefore may be useful for the treatment of diseases mediated by said kinases, especially as anticancer agents.
Disclosed are novel pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivatives that are inhibitors of Raf kinase. These compounds and their pharmaceutically-acceptable salts and esters are anti-proliferative agents useful in the treatment or control of proliferative disorders such as solid tumors, in particular breast tumor, colon tumor, lung tumor, prostate tumor, and melanoma. Also disclosed are a composition and a unit dose formulation comprising such a compound, or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt or ester thereof, methods for making such compounds, and methods for using such compounds, or their pharmaceutically-acceptable salts or esters, in the treatment of proliferative disorders.
