Abstract

A high throughput screen of Abbott's compound repository revealed that the pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine class of kinase inhibitors possessed moderate potency for IGF-IR, a promising target for Cancer chemotherapy. The synthesis and subsequent optimization of this class of compounds led to the discovery of 14, a compound that possesses in vivo IGF-IR inhibitory activity.
