SELECTIVE ANTHRANILAMIDE PYRIDINE AMIDES AS INHIBITORS OF VEGFR-2 AND VEGFR-3

The invention relates to selective anthranilamide pyridine amides as inhibitors of VEGFR-2 and VEGFR-3 and to their production and use as medicaments for treating diseases that are caused by persistent angiogenesis. The inventive compounds can be used for example in cases of psoriasis, Kaposi's sarcoma, restenosis, such as e.g. stent-induced restenosis, endometriosis, Crohn's disease, Hodgkin's disease, leukaemia, arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis, haemangioma, angiofibromatosis, in eye diseases such as diabetic retinopathy, neovascular glaucoma, in kidney diseases such as glomerulonephritis, diabetic nephropathy, malign nephrosclerosis, thrombic micro-angiopathic syndrome, transplant rejection and glomerulopathy, in fibrotic diseases such as hepatic cirrhosis, mesangial-cell proliferative diseases, arteriosclerosis, damage to the nerve tissue and inhibition of the re-occlusion of vessels after balloon catheter treatment, in vessel prosthetics or after the use of mechanical devices for keeping vessels open, e.g. stents, as immunosuppressants, to support wound healing without scars and in cases of age spots and contact dermatitis. The inventive compounds can also be used as inhibitors of VEGFR-3 in lymphangiogenesis for hyperplastic and dysplastic changes in the lymphatic system.
