each R 2 is, independently, halo, hydroxy, thiol, optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 alkyl, optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 heteroalkyl, or optionally substituted amino, or one R 2 combines with another R 2 and the atoms to which they are attached to form a 5- to 7-membered ring;

R 3 and R 5 are, independently, hydrogen or optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 alkyl;

R 4 is hydrogen, optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 alkyl, optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 heteroalkyl, optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 alkyl C 6 -C 10 aryl, or optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 alkyl C 2 -C 9 heteroaryl;

Het is 5- or 6-membered heterocycle;

R 6 is hydrogen, halo, cyano, optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 alkoxy, optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 heteroalkyl, carboxyl, optionally substituted amide, optionally substituted C 2 -C 9 heteroaryl, optionally substituted C 2 -C 9 heterocyclyl, or optionally substituted C 6 -C 10 aryl; and

R 7 is cyano, halo, optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 alkyl or optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 heteroalkyl,

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

2 . The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 3 is hydrogen.

3 . The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 5 is hydrogen.
