Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2008 Nov 1;18(21):5758-62. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2008.09.069. Epub 2008 Sep 24.

Abstract

A novel series of pyrazolo[1,5-b]pyridazines have been synthesized and identified as cyclin dependant kinase inhibitors potentially useful for the treatment of solid tumors. Modification of the hinge-binding amine or the C(2)- and C(6)-substitutions on the pyrazolopyridazine core provided potent inhibitors of CDK4 and demonstrated enzyme selectivity against VEGFR-2 and GSK3beta.
