  • Patent number: 8735429
    Abstract: The invention concerns benzamide compounds of formula (I): compound of formula (I): wherein R1 is a C-linked pyrazole ring, which is optionally substituted by one or more groups selected from C1-4alkyl, C3-4cycloalkyl, C1-4alkoxy and C3-4cycloalkoxy; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pro-drug form thereof. The invention also concerns processes for the preparation of such compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in the manufacture of a medicament for use as an antiproliferative agent in the prevention or treatment of tumors or other proliferative conditions, which are sensitive to the inhibition of histone deacetylase (HDAC).
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20110118238
    Abstract: This invention relates to chemical compounds of the formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which possess inhibitory activity against the spindle checkpoint kinase: Tyrosine Threonine Kinase (TTK)/monopolar spindle 1 (Mps1) and are accordingly useful for their anti-cancer effect in a warm-blooded animal such as man. The invention also relates to processes for the manufacture of said chemical compounds, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them, and to their use in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of conditions mediated by TTK/Mps1, for use either alone or in combination with other anti-pro liferative agents.
