Small molecules for the modulation of MCL-1 and methods of modulatiing cell death, cell division, cell differentiation and methods of treating disorders
This invention relates to compounds which selectively bind to the survival protein MCL-1 with high affinity and selectivity, pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds and the use of those compounds or compositions for modulating MCL-1 activity and for treating hyperproliferative disorders, angiogenesis disorders, cell cycle regulation disorders, autophagy regulation disorders, inflammatory disorders, and/or infectious disorders and/or for enhancing cellular engraftment and/or wound repair, as a sole agent or in combination with other active ingredients.
