FARNESYLAMINE DERIVATIVES AND METHODS OF USE

摘要

The present invention concerns farnesylamine derivatives, compositions containing these compounds, and methods of using these compounds and compositions as inhibitors of røs-mediated signal transduction and inhibitors of aberrant cell growth, e.g., as anti-cancer agents, as well as anti-fungal agents. Other non-malignant diseases characterized by proliferation of cells that may be treated using the farneylamine derivatives of the include, but are not limited to, cirrhosis of the liver; graft rejection; restenosis; and disorders characterized by a proliferation of T cells such as autoimmune diseases, e.g., type 1 diabetes, lupus and multiple sclerosis.
