wherein R¹, R², R³, R⁴, R⁵, and R⁶ are as defined herein for Formula (IA) and Formula (IB), or a tautomer, prodrug, solvate, or salt thereof, pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and methods of modulating estrogen receptor activity in a cell or patient or treating an estrogen receptor-mediated disorder, particularly breast and other cancers, in a patient in need thereof by administering an effective amount of compound of the invention thereto.

The invention provides, in certain embodiments, compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and methods for modulating the functions of estrogen receptor alpha 36, for preventing and/or treating diseases related to estrogen receptor alpha 36, for preventing and/or treating respiratory diseases such as asthma, for inducing cell death and/or inhibiting cell proliferation and for preventing and/or treating diseases involving abnormal cell proliferation such as cancers.

The disclosure provides compositions comprising liquiritigenin, or derivatives, or prodrugs, useful as estrogen receptor beta selective agonists. The disclosure also provides methods of treating menopausal symptoms, and estrogen-dependent disorders, with said compositions.

The present invention relates to novel indazole derivatives having pharmacological activity, processes for their preparation, compositions containing them and uses of these compounds in the treatment of estrogen receptor beta mediated diseases.

The present invention relates to compounds of formula I:

Compositions derived from Rheum palmatum are provided. Also provided are methods of using said extracts to induce apoptosis in specific cells, especially in a human. Provided as well are uses of the extracts of Rheum palmatum for the preparation of a medicament for the selective induction of apoptosis

The disclosure provides compositions comprising liquiritigenin, or derivatives, or prodrugs, useful as estrogen receptor beta selective agonists. The disclosure also provides methods of treating menopausal symptoms, and estrogen-dependent disorders, with said compositions.

Estrogenic compositions comprising nyasol and analogs thereof are provided. Also provided are methods of using said extracts to achieve an estrogenic effect, especially in a human, e.g. a female human. In some embodiments, the methods include treatment of climacteric symptoms. In some embodiments, the methods include treatment of estrogen receptor positive cancer, such as estrogen responsive breast cancer. In some embodiments, the methods include treatment or prevention of osteoporosis.

The present invention relates to compounds and derivatives thereof, their synthesis, and their use as estrogen receptor modulators. The compounds of the instant invention are ligands for estrogen receptors and as such may be useful for treatment or prevention of a variety of conditions related to estrogen functioning including: bone loss, bone fractures, osteoporosis, cartilage degeneration, endometriosis, uterine fibroid disease, hot flashes, increased levels of LDL cholesterol, cardiovascular disease, impairment of cognitive functioning, cerebral degenerative disorders, restenosis, gynecomastia, vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation, obesity, incontinence, and cancer, in particular of the breast, uterus and prostate.

The present invention is based on sequencing genomic DNA from human chromosome 6 and cDNAs to define the genomic structure of estrogen receptor beta genes and novel polymorphism in the estrogen receptor gene/protein. Such polymorphism can lead to a variety of disorders that are mediated/modulated by a variant estrogen receptor, such as a susceptibility to cancer, osteoporosis, cardiovascular disorder, etc. Based on this sequencing approach, the present invention provides genomic nucleotide sequences, CDNA sequences, amino acid sequences and sequence polymorphism in the ESR-beta genes, methods of detecting these sequences/polymorphism in a sample, methods of determining a risk of having or developing a disorder mediated by a variant estrogen receptor and methods of screening for compounds used to treat disorders mediated by a variant estrogen receptor.

This invention relates to the treatment and/or prevention of depression and/or anxiety disorders and/or dementia by the administration of an estrogen receptor beta (ERβ) selective agonist either as a single agent, or in combination with other agents.

The present disclosure relates to bifunctional compounds, which find utility as modulators of estrogen receptor (target protein). In particular, the present disclosure is directed to bifunctional compounds, which contain on one end at least one of a Von Hippel-Lindau ligand, a cereblon ligand, Inhibitors of Apoptosis Proteins ligand, mouse double-minute homolog 2 ligand, or a combination thereof, which binds to the respective E3 ubiquitin ligase, and on the other end a moiety which binds the target protein, such that the target protein is placed in proximity to the ubiquitin ligase to effect degradation (and inhibition) of target protein. The present disclosure exhibits a broad range of pharmacological activities associated with degradation/inhibition of target protein. Diseases or disorders that result from aggregation or accumulation of the target protein are treated or prevented with compounds and compositions of the present disclosure.

The present invention provides (1) an agent for the prevention or treatment of an estrogen receptor-negative and HER2-negative breast cancer comprising an Akt inhibitor, (2) an agent for the prevention or treatment of an estrogen receptor-negative, progesterone receptor-negative and HER2-negative breast cancer comprising an Akt inhibitor, (3) a method of screening an agent for the prevention or treatment of a breast cancer which is negative for hormone receptors such as an estrogen receptor, a progesterone receptor, etc. and is negative for HER2, which comprises using an Akt inhibitory activity as an indicator; and so on.

The present invention relates to substituted benzopyran derivatives, stereoisomers, and pharmaceutical acceptable salts thereof and processes for the preparation of the same. The compounds of the present invention are useful as Estrogen Receptor ? agonists. Such agonists are useful for the treating Estrogen Receptor ? mediated diseases such as prostate cancer or BPH.

The invention relates to the fields of pharmaceutical chemistry and organic chemistry, in particular to isoquinolinone derivatives. The compounds can be used for treating various medical indications associated with postmenopausal symptoms, uterine fiber lesions and arterial smooth muscle cell proliferation, particularly ER-(+) breast cancer by inhibiting alpha-estrogen receptor subtype (ER alpha) and through vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR-2) bi-target. Meanwhile, the compounds have an obvious inhibiting effect on tumor metastasis, and have a general formula I.

The invention relates to novel compounds having the general formula: (I) and arc useful as selective ER-β ligands in the treatment or prophylaxis of Alzheimer's disease, anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, osteoporosis cardiovascular disease, rheumatoid arthritis or prostate cancer.
