RÉSUMÉ

TTK kinase was identified by in-house siRNA screen and pursued as a tractable, novel target for cancer treatment. A screening campaign and systematic optimization, supported by computer modeling led to an indazole core with key sulfamoylphenyl and acetamido moieties at positions 3 and 5, respectively, establishing a novel chemical class culminating in identification of 72 (CFI-400936). This potent inhibitor of TTK (IC50=3.6nM) demonstrated good activity in cell based assay and selectivity against a panel of human kinases. A co-complex TTK X-ray crystal structure and results of a xenograft study with TTK inhibitors from this class are described.
