5 μM, 30*100 mm, Symmetrie C 18, 5 μm, 19*100 mm or XBridge C 18, 5 μm, 19*100) are used. Mass spectroscopy / UV-spectrometer:
These data are produced using an HPLC-MS apparatus (high performance liquid chromatography with mass detector) made by Agilent.
The apparatus is constructed so that the chromatography (column: Zorbax SB-C8, 3.5 μm, 2.1*50, Agilent) is followed by a diode array detector (G1315B made by Agilent) and a mass detector (1100 LS-MSD SL; G1946D; Agilent) connected in series. This apparatus is operated with a flow of 0.6 mL/min. For a separation process a gradient is run through within 3.5 min (gradient at the start: 95% water and 5% acetonitrile, gradient at the finish: 5% water and 95% acetonitrile; as buffer, either 0.1% formic acid is added to both solvents, or 5 mM ammonium hydrogen carbonate and 19 mM ammonia are added to the water).

(KTFCGTPEYLAPEVRREPRILSEEEQEMFRDFDYIADWC) synthesised by Pepceuticals Limited, Nottingham, United Kingdom; 25 μM final concentration; PDKl and PDKtide are correspondingly diluted together in assay buffer; PDKtide is present in this mixture as an 83.3 μM solution) - 10 μL ATP solution (25 μM ATP with 0.5 μCi/well of gamma-P33-ATP)
The reaction is started by adding the ATP solution and incubated for 30 min at RT; at the start of the reaction the plates are shaken gently. The reaction is stopped by the addition of 5 μL/well 0.5 M phosphoric acid (H3PO4) and incubated for about 20 min at RT. The precipitate is transferred by harvesting onto filter plates (96-well microtitre filter plate: UniFilter GF/C; Perkin Elmer; No. 6005174), then washed 6 times with 50 mM H3PO4 and dried at 6O0C. Then the plate is stuck down with sealing tape, 25 μL/well of scintillation solution (Microscint 0; Perkin Elmer; No. 6013611) are added and the amount of P33 precipitated is measured using the Wallac Betacounter. The measurement data are evaluated using the Standard Graphpad software.
The antiproliferative activity of the compounds according to the invention is determined on cultivated human tumour cells, for example on PC-3 cells. The compounds exhibit good to very good activity, i.e. for example an EC50 value of less than 5 μmol/L, generally less than 1 μmol/L in the PC-3 proliferation test. Measurement of the inhibition of proliferation on cultivated human tumour cells
To measure proliferation on cultivated human tumour cells, cells of prostate carcinoma tumour cell line PC-3 (obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC)) are cultivated in Ham's F 12 Medium (Gibco) and 10% foetal calf serum (Gibco) and harvested in the log growth phase. Then the PC-3 cells are placed in 96-well plates (Costar) at a density of 1000 cells per well and incubated overnight in an incubator (at 37°C and 5% CO2), while on each plate 16 wells are used as controls (8 wells with cells to which only DMSO solution has been added (should yield 30 - 50% maximum value of reduced AlamarBlue), 4 wells containing only medium (medium control, after the addition of oxidised AlamarBlue reagent the background signal is obtained) and 4 wells where again only medium is added (after the addition of reduced AlamarBlue reagent it acts as a maximum value)). The active substances are added to the cells in various concentrations (dissolved in DMSO; DMSO final concentration: 0.1% or 1%) (in each case as a double or triple measurement). After 5 days' incubation 20 μl AlamarBlue reagent (Serotec) are added to each well, and the cells are incubated for a further 5-7 hours. As a control, 20 μl reduced AlamarBlue reagent is added to each of 4 wells. After incubation the colour change of the AlamarBlue reagent in the individual wells is determined in a SpectraMax Photometer (Molecular Devices) (extinction 530 nm, emission 590 nm, 5 sec measuring time). The amount of AlamarBlue reagent reacted represents the metabolic activity of the cells. The relative cell activity is calculated in relation to the control (PC-3 cells without inhibitor) and the active substance concentration which inhibits the cell activity by 50% (EC50) is derived. The values are calculated from the average of two or three individual measurements.
The compounds according to the invention are also tested accordingly on other tumour cells. For example these compounds are effective on carcinomas of all kinds of tissue (e.g. gliomas (U87), sarcoma (e.g. MES-SA, SK-UT-IB), breast (MDA-MB468), colon (HCTl 16), lung (H460)) and could be used in indications of this kind, particularly in indications which have activating changes in the PI3K- AKT-PDKl signal pathway. This demonstrates the wide range of applications for the compounds according to the invention for the treatment of all kinds of tumour types. On the basis of their biological properties the new compounds of general formula (1) or (IA), the isomers and the physiologically acceptable salts thereof are therefore suitable for treating diseases characterised by excessive or abnormal cell proliferation.

Suitable preparations include for example tablets, capsules, suppositories, solutions, - particularly solutions for injection (s.c, Lv., i.m.) and infusion - elixirs, emulsions or dispersible powders. The content of the pharmaceutically active compound(s) should be in the range from 0.1 to 90 wt.-%, preferably 0.5 to 50 wt.-% of the composition as a whole, i.e. in amounts which are sufficient to achieve the dosage range specified below. The doses specified may, if necessary, be given several times a day.
Suitable tablets may be obtained, for example, by mixing the active substance(s) with known excipients, for example inert diluents such as calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate or lactose, disintegrants such as corn starch or alginic acid, binders such as starch or gelatine, lubricants such as magnesium stearate or talc and/or agents for delaying release, such as carboxymethyl cellulose, cellulose acetate phthalate, or polyvinyl acetate. The tablets may also comprise several layers.
Coated tablets may be prepared accordingly by coating cores produced analogously to the tablets with substances normally used for tablet coatings, for example collidone or shellac, gum arabic, talc, titanium dioxide or sugar. To achieve delayed release or prevent incompatibilities the core may also consist of a number of layers. Similarly the tablet coating may consist of a number of layers to achieve delayed release, possibly using the excipients mentioned above for the tablets.
Syrups or elixirs containing the active substances or combinations thereof according to the invention may additionally contain a sweetener such as saccharine, cyclamate, glycerol or sugar and a flavour enhancer, e.g. a flavouring such as vanillin or orange extract. They may also contain suspension adjuvants or thickeners such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, wetting agents such as, for example, condensation products of fatty alcohols with ethylene oxide, or preservatives such as p-hydroxybenzoates.
Solutions for injection and infusion are prepared in the usual way, e.g. with the addition of isotonic agents, preservatives such as p-hydroxybenzoates, or stabilisers such as alkali metal salts of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, optionally using emulsifiers and/or dispersants, whilst if water is used as the diluent, for example, organic solvents may optionally be used as solvating agents or dissolving aids, and transferred into injection vials or ampoules or infusion bottles.
Capsules containing one or more active substances or combinations of active substances may for example be prepared by mixing the active substances with inert carriers such as lactose or sorbitol and packing them into gelatine capsules.
Suitable suppositories may be made for example by mixing with carriers provided for this purpose, such as neutral fats or polyethyleneglycol or the derivatives thereof.
Excipients which may be used include, for example, water, pharmaceutically acceptable organic solvents such as paraffins (e.g. petroleum fractions), vegetable oils (e.g. groundnut or sesame oil), mono- or polyfunctional alcohols (e.g. ethanol or glycerol), carriers such as e.g. natural mineral powders (e.g. kaolins, clays, talc, chalk), synthetic mineral powders (e.g. highly dispersed silicic acid and silicates), sugars (e.g. cane sugar, lactose and glucose) emulsifiers (e.g. lignin, spent sulphite liquors, methylcellulose, starch and polyvinylpyrrolidone) and lubricants (e.g. magnesium stearate, talc, stearic acid and sodium lauryl sulphate).
The preparations are administered by the usual methods, preferably by oral or transdermal route, most preferably by oral route. For oral administration the tablets may, of course contain, apart from the abovementioned carriers, additives such as sodium citrate, calcium carbonate and dicalcium phosphate together with various additives such as starch, preferably potato starch, gelatine and the like. Moreover, lubricants such as magnesium stearate, sodium lauryl sulphate and talc may be used at the same time for the tabletting process. In the case of aqueous suspensions the active substances may be combined with various flavour enhancers or colourings in addition to the excipients mentioned above.
For parenteral use, solutions of the active substances with suitable liquid carriers may be used.
The dosage for intravenous use is from 1 - 1000 mg per hour, preferably between 5 and
500 mg per hour.
However, it may sometimes be necessary to depart from the amounts specified, depending on the body weight, the route of administration, the individual response to the drug, the nature of its formulation and the time or interval over which the drug is administered.
Thus, in some cases it may be sufficient to use less than the minimum dose given above, whereas in other cases the upper limit may have to be exceeded. When administering large amounts it may be advisable to divide them up into a number of smaller doses spread over the day.
