This invention relates to pyrazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline compounds exhibiting protein tyrosine kinase inhibition activity. More specifically, compounds of this invention are novel as selective inhibitors of the PDGF-R protein tyrosine kinase and can be applied as potential therapeutic agents for various disease states which are characterized by uncontrolled cellular proliferation. Further, the present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions and a method for treating such disorders comprising the administration to a patient of a PDGF receptor inhibiting effective amount of a pyrazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline compound exhibiting protein tyrosine kinase inhibition activity. Processes for the preparation of pyrazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline compounds. |
