Abstract

The present invention relates to aryl- or heteroaryl-substituted benzene compounds. The present invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds and methods of treating cancer by administering these compounds and pharmaceutical compositions to subjects in need thereof. The present invention also relates to the use of such compounds for research or other non-therapeutic purposes.

Claims

1. A method comprising administering to a subject having a sarcoma a therapeutically effective amount of a compound being of Formula (Ig) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof:

2. The method of claim 1, wherein R₆ is C₆-C₁₀ aryl or 5- or 6-membered heteroaryl, each of which is optionally, independently substituted with one or more -Q₂-T₂, wherein Q₂ is a bond or C₁-C₃ alkyl linker, and T₂ is H, halo, cyano, —

OR_a, —

NR_aR_b, —

(NR_aR_bR_c)⁺A⁻

, —

C(O)NR_aR_b, —

NR_bC(O)R_a, —

S(O)₂R_a, or R_S2, in which each of R_a and R_b, independently is H or R_S3, each of R_S2 and R_S3, independently, is C₁-C₆ alkyl, or R_a and R_b, together with the N atom to which they are attached, form a 4 to 7-membered heterocycloalkyl ring having 0 or 1 additional heteroatom, and each of R_S2, R_S3, and the 4 to 7-membered heterocycloalkyl ring formed by R_a and R_b, is optionally, independently substituted with one or more -Q₃-T₃, wherein Q₃ is a bond or C₁-C₃ alkyl linker and T₃ is selected from the group consisting of halo, C₁-C₆ alkyl, 4 to 7-membered heterocycloalkyl, OR_a, —

S(O)₂R_d, and —

NR_dR_e, each of R_d and R_e independently being H or C₁-C₆ alkyl, or -Q₃-T₃ is oxo;

or any two neighboring -Q₂-T₂, together with the atoms to which they are attached form a 5- or 6-membered ring optionally containing 1-4 heteroatoms selected from N, O and S.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the compound is of Formula (II) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof:

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the compound is of Formula (IIa) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof:

5. The method of claim 4, wherein R_a and R_b, together with the N atom to which they are attached, form a 4 to 7-membered heterocycloalkyl ring having 0 or 1 additional heteroatoms to the N atom and the ring is optionally substituted with one or more -Q₃-T₃, wherein the heterocycloalkyl is azetidinyl, pyrrolidinyl, imidazolidinyl, pyrazolidinyl, oxazolidinyl, isoxazolidinyl, triazolidinyl, piperidinyl, 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridinyl, piperazinyl, or morpholinyl.

11. The method of claim 1, wherein the sarcoma is rhabdomyosarcoma.

12. The method of claim 1, wherein the compound is administered orally.

13. The method of claim 12, wherein the compound is administered in an amount of from about 0.1 mg/day to about 10 g/day.

14. The method of claim 12, wherein the compound is administered in an amount of from about 0.1 mg/day to about 3 g/day.

15. The method of claim 12, wherein the compound is administered in an amount of from about 0.1 mg/day to about 1 g/day.

16. The method of claim 12, wherein the compound is administered twice daily.

17. A method comprising administering to a subject having a sarcoma a therapeutically effective amount of a compound being

18. The method of claim 17, wherein the sarcoma is soft tissue sarcoma.

19. The method of claim 17, wherein the sarcoma is osteosarcoma.

20. The method of claim 17, wherein the sarcoma is rhabdomyosarcoma.

21. The method of claim 17, wherein the sarcoma belongs to the ewing family of sarcoma tumors.

22. The method of claim 17, wherein the sarcoma is Kaposi sarcoma.

23. The method of claim 17, wherein the sarcoma is uterine sarcoma.

24. The method of claim 17, wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable salt is a hydrobromic acid salt.

25. The method of claim 17, wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable salt is a hydrochloric acid salt.

26. The method of claim 17, wherein the compound is administered orally.

27. The method of claim 26, wherein the compound is administered in an amount of from about 0.1 mg/day to about 10 g/day.

28. The method of claim 26, wherein the compound is administered in an amount of from about 0.1 mg/day to about 3 g/day.
