, (2021/04/02)
Mutations in oncogenes and tumor suppressors contribute to the development and progression of cancer. The present disclosure describes compounds and methods to recover wild-type function to p53 mutants. The compounds of the present invention can bind to mutant p53 and restore the ability of the p53 mutant to bind DNA and activate downstream effectors involved in tumor suppression. The disclosed compounds can be used to reduce the progression of cancers that contain a p53 mutation.

The present invention relates to compounds of formula (II) wherein X, Y, R2, R3, R4 and Ar are all as defined herein. The compounds of the present invention are known to inhibit the spindle checkpoint function of Monospindle 1 (Mps1 – also known as TTK) kinases either directly or indirectly via interaction with the Mps1 kinase itself. In particular, the present invention relates to the use of these compounds as therapeutic agents for the treatment and/or prevention of proliferative diseases, such as cancer. The present invention also relates to processes for the preparation of these compounds, and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising them.
