Description

ABSTRACT:
Compounds useful for inducing apoptosis in proliferative cells, particularly cancer cells, including but not limited to prostate cancer, leukemia, non-smalll cell lung cancer, colon cancer, CNS cancer, melanoma, ovarian cancer, renal cancer, bladder cancer, lymphoma, and breast cancer. These compounds are particularly useful in the treatment of androgen-independent cancers, including hormone-refractory prostate cancer. Further provided are methods of treating cancer in a subject in need of such treatment using the compounds of the present invention. Further provided are methods for using the compounds of the present invention to treat, inhibit, or delay the onset of cancer in a subject. Further provided are methods of inducing apoptosis in rapidly proliferating cells, particularly, though not necessarily cancer cells, using the compounds of the present invention.
