Abstract

The present invention relates to novel Pyrrole-Type compounds, compositions comprising Pyrrole-Type compounds, and methods useful for treating or preventing cancer or a neoplastic disorder comprising administering a Pyrrole-Type compound. The compounds, compositions, and methods of the invention are also useful for inhibiting the growth of a cancer cell or neoplastic cell. The present invention also relates to novel Pyrrole-Type compounds, compositions, and methods useful for treating or preventing a viral infection. The compounds, compositions, and methods of the invention are also useful for inhibiting the replication and/or infectivity of a virus. The present invention also relates to novel Pyrrole-Type compounds, compositions, and methods useful for causing immunosuppression. The present invention also relates to novel Pyrrole-Type compounds, compositions, and methods useful for treating or preventing an autoimmune disease.
