1 . A method of treating cancer in a human or animal patient comprising administering to the patient in need thereof an effective amount of a compound having the formula (I):
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or N-oxide derivative thereof;
wherein the cancer is selected from the group consisting of liver cancers, brain cancers, breast cancers, lung cancers, cervical cancers, and colon cancers.
2 . A method of treating cancer in a human or animal patient comprising administering to the patient in need thereof an effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound having the formula (I):
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or N-oxide derivative thereof, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient;
wherein the cancer is selected from the group consisting of liver cancers, brain cancers, breast cancers, lung cancers, cervical cancers, and colon cancers.
3 . The method of claim 2 comprising one or more further pharmaceutically active agents.
4 . The method of claim 1 , comprising administering to the patient in need thereof one or more further pharmaceutically active agents.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is cervical cancer.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is colon cancer.
7 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the cancer is cervical cancer.
8 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the cancer is colon cancer.
9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is brain cancer.
10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is breast cancer.
11 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is lung cancer.
12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the lung cancer is non-small cell lung cancer.
13 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the cancer is brain cancer.
14 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the cancer is breast cancer.
15 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the cancer is lung cancer.
16 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the lung cancer is non-small cell lung cancer.
