SCH 66336 is a trihalo tricyclic compound that is currently undergoing Phase 11 clinical trials for the treatment of solid tumors. Modifications of SCH 66336 by incorporating such groups as amides, acids, esters, ureas and lactams off the first or the distal piperidine (from the tricycle) provided potent FPT inhibitors some of which exhibited good cellular activity. A number of these compounds incorporate properties that might improve pharmacokinetic stability of these inhibitors by virtue of their increased solubility or by their change in log P.
