Abstract: The present invention relates to a Brk inhibitory compound represented by general formula (I) (wherein, all symbols represent the same meanings as the symbols set forth in the specification), a salt thereof, an N-oxide thereof, a solvate thereof, or a prodrug of any of these.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a method for identifying a patient with malignant tumor on which the effect of an immune checkpoint inhibitor can be more expected, and agents for suppressing the progression of, suppressing the recurrence of, and/or treating malignant tumor, characterized by prescriptions based on those. The present invention can provide agents for suppressing the progression of, suppressing the recurrence of, and/or treating malignant tumor, characterized by prescriptions based on identifying a patient with a malignant tumor on which the effect of an immune checkpoint inhibitor can be more expected, by analyzing the evaluation items consisting of combinations such as the PD-1 expression intensity, the percentage of the number of PD-1 expressing cells and the like in Treg cells and CD8+ T cells in tumor tissue or blood.

Abstract: Disclosed is a compound of formula (I): wherein all symbols are defined in the description. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, methods of making the compounds, kits comprising the compounds, and methods of using the compounds, compositions and kits for treatment of disorders associated with TREK-1, TREK-2 or both TREK-1 and TREK-2 dysfunction in a mammal.

Abstract: Since a compound represented by the general formula (I) (wherein definition of each group is as described in the specification), a salt thereof, a solvate thereof, or a prodrug thereof has strong and sustaining intraocular pressure lowering activity and, further, has no side effect on eyes such as ocular stimulating property (hyperemia, corneal clouding etc.), aqueous humor protein rise etc., it has high safety, and can be an excellent agent for preventing and/or treating glaucoma etc.

Abstract: A compound represented by general formula (I): (wherein in the formula, all the symbols have the same meanings as those described in the specification), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is useful as a medicament's active ingredient having an EP4 receptor antagonistic activity, in preventing and/or treating disease caused by activation of an EP4 receptor.
