Substituted benzimidazoles and methods of their use
View Patent ↗New substituted benzimidazole compounds, compositions, and methods of inhibition of kinase activity associated with tumorigenesis in a human or animal subject are provided. In certain embodiments, the compounds and compositions are effective to inhibit the activity of at least one serine/threonine kinase or receptor tyrosine kinase. The new compounds and compositions may be used either alone or in combination with at least one additional agent for the treatment of a serine/threonine kinase- or receptor tyrosine kinase-mediated disorder, such as cancer.
1. A method for treating colorectal cancer in a human or animal subject, the method comprising administering to the human or animal subject a compound that is {1-methyl-5-[2-(5-trifluoromethyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-pyridin-4-yloxy]-1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl}-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-amine:
or a tautomer thereof:
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the tautomer.
2. A method for treating acute monocytic leukemia in a human or animal subject, the method comprising administering to the human or animal subject a compound that is {1-methyl-5-[2-(5-trifluoromethyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-pyridin-4-yloxy]-1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl }-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-amine:
or a tautomer thereof:
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the tautomer.
3. A method for treating melanoma in a human or animal subject, the method comprising administering to the human or animal subject a compound that is {1-methyl-5-[2-(5-trifluoromethyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-pyridin-4-yloxy]-1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl}-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl) -amine:
or a tautomer thereof:
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the tautomer.
