The present invention relates to compounds of formula I: wherein R1 and R2 are as defined herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof. The compounds of formula I are inhibitors of aurora kinase and/or FLT3. The present invention also relates to processes for the preparation of these compounds, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising them, and to their use in the treatment of proliferative disorders, such as cancer, as well as other diseases or conditions in which aurora kinase and/or FLT3 activity is implicated.

Optimization of the imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine-based series of Aurora kinase inhibitors led to the identification of 6-chloro-7-(4-(4-chlorobenzyl)piperazin- 1-yl)-2-(1,3-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (27e), a potent inhibitor of Aurora kinases (Aurora-A Kd = 7.5 nM, Aurora-B K d = 48 nM), FLT3 kinase (Kd = 6.2 nM), and FLT3 mutants including FLT3-ITD (Kd = 38 nM) and FLT3(D835Y) (Kd = 14 nM). FLT3-ITD causes constitutive FLT3 kinase activation and is detected in 20-35% of adults and 15% of children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), conferring a poor prognosis in both age groups. In an in vivo setting, 27e strongly inhibited the growth of a FLT3-ITD-positive AML human tumor xenograft (MV4-11) following oral administration, with in vivo biomarker modulation and plasma free drug exposures consistent with dual FLT3 and Aurora kinase inhibition. Compound 27e, an orally bioavailable dual FLT3 and Aurora kinase inhibitor, was selected as a preclinical development candidate for the treatment of human malignancies, in particular AML, in adults and children.

Compounds of formula (I), are aurora kinase inhibitors: wherein X is —N—, —CH2—N—, —CH2—CH—, or —CH—; R1 is a radical of formula (IA) wherein Z is —CH2—, —NH—, -0-, —S(O)— —S—, —S(O)2 or a divalent monocyclic carbocyclic or heterocyclic radical having 3-7 ring atoms; Alk is an optionally substituted divalent C1-C6 alkylene radical; A is hydrogen or an optionally substituted monocyclic carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring having 5-7 ring atoms; r, s and t are independently 0 or 1, provided that when A is hydrogen then at least one of r and s is 1; R2 is halogen, —CN, —CF3, —OCH3, or cyclopropyl; and R3 is a radical of formula (IB) wherein Q is hydrogen or an optionally substituted phenyl or monocyclic heterocyclic ring with 5 or 6 ring atoms; Z[!It!]1> is —S—, —S(O)—, —S(O)2—, —O—, —SO2NH—, —NHSO2—, NHC(═O)NH, —NH(C═S)NH—, Or —N(R4)—wherein R4 is hydrogen, C1-C3 alkyl, cycloalkyl, or benzyl; and Alk[!It!]1> and Alk[!It!]2> are, independently, optionally substituted divalent C1-C3 alkylene radicals; and m, n and p are independently 0 or 1.
