Abstract:
One example embodiment is a lignanamide that includes a benzo-angular triquinane skeleton. The lignanamide is represented by formula (I) and any derivative of the formula (I), in which R is represented by —OH or —OCH3. Another example embodiment relates to a method of treating neurodegenerative disease by administering the lignanamide of the formula (I) to a person in need thereof.
Abstract:
This invention provides a method of treating lung cancer including administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of 0089-0022 formula I to a subject in need thereof. The compound activates pyruvate kinase M2 isoform (PKM2) to treat the lung cancer. In one example, the lung cancer is Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method of treating gefitinib-resistant non-small-cell lung cancer, comprising administering an effective amount of D561-0775. A pharmaceutical composition comprising D561-0775 admixed with a pharmaceutical carrier for treating Gefitinib-resistant non-small-cell lung cancer is also disclosed therein.
Abstract:
A compound for treating a disease, in particular cancer like non-small cell lung cancer, exceptionally inhibits activity of oncogenic ALK kinase. Compositions, particularly pharmaceutical compositions, are provided comprising this compound. Methods for targeting cancer cells harboring an abnormality in the ALK gene are also The compound for treating a disease has certain structural elements, namely a tricyclic, more specifically heterocyclic, backbone as the core part of the compound at least one highly electronegative atom in form of a tertiary amine attached to the backbone via an at most 6-membered linking group with a terminal highly electronegative atom in form of a nitrogen as secondary amine, and a further hydrophobic moiety fused to the backbone. The structural components allow for an advantageous interaction with the ALK kinase domain. The compound therefor represents a highly promising treatment option for patients in particular those bearing ALK-dependent non-small cell lung cancer.

Abstract:
A method of treating a subject, in particular a human, suffering from non-small cell lung cancer includes administering a bufadienolide to the subject. A method of inhibiting the proliferation and inducing the cell death of non-small cell lung cancer cells, a method of inhibiting the Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase activity in non-small cell lung cancer cells harboring an abnormality in the EGFR gene, and a method of inhibiting Na+/K+-ATPase in non-small cell lung cancer cells includes contacting those cells with a bufadienolide. Proscillaridin A as bufadienolide, with the structure of Formula (III) has advantageously high cytotoxicity against EGFR-dependent non-small cell lung cancer at nano-molar levels while having low toxicity to normal lung cells.
