Abstract

Exploration of SAR and optimisation of the imidazo [1, 2-a] pyridine CDK inhibitors has lead to the discovery of novel, potent and selective inhibitors of the cyclin-dependent kinase CDK2. Understanding of SAR has identified positions of substitution, which allow modification of physical properties and offer the potential for in vivo optimisation.
