Abstract

Amide compounds represented by the formula: wherein:R1 is a moiety represented by the formula  where X is selected from the group consisting of CH2, O, S, and NH; and Y is selected from the group consisting of CH2, O, and S, provided that at least one of X and Y is CH2, or X and Y together with the bond there-between form a cyclopropyl; are described. These compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing them modulate and/or inhibit the activity of certain protein kinases and are capable of mediating tyrosine kinase signal transduction in order to modulate and/or inhibit unwanted cell proliferation. The invention is also directed to the therapeutic or prophylactic use of pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and to methods of treating cancer as well as other disease states associated with unwanted angiogenesis and/or cellular proliferation, such as diabetic retinopathy, neovascular glaucoma, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriasis, by administering effective amounts of such compounds.
