Abstract: It is intended to provide a compound represented by the formula (I): wherein all the symbols are as defined in the description; which has a p38 MAP kinase inhibitory activity, a salt thereof, an N-oxide thereof, a solvate thereof, or a prodrug thereof. The compound of the invention is useful for preventing or treating a disease in which the abnormal production of a cytokine such as an inflammatory cytokine or a chemokine or overreaction to them is considered to be involved in the cause and aggravation of pathological conditions, in other words, an inflammatory disease, a respiratory disease, a cardiovascular disease, a central nervous system disease or the like, which is a cytokine-mediated disease.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound that has p38 MAP kinase inhibitory activity useful as drug medicine, represented by the general formula (I): wherein all the symbols are as defined in the description, or its salt, N-oxide or solvate, or a prodrug thereof. Further, there are provided a process for producing the same and usage thereof. The compound of the general formula (I) has a p38 MAP kinase inhibitory activity and is useful for the prevention and/or treatment of diseases in which an abnormal production of cytokine, such as inflammatory cytokine or chemokine, or an over-reaction thereto would be instrumental in the cause and aggravation of pathologic condition thereof, namely, cytokine-mediated diseases, for example, inflammatory diseases, respiratory diseases, circulatory diseases, central nervous diseases, etc.
