The present invention provides a novel pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-one, specifically a derivative of 1-(pyridin-4-yl)-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-one. This compound is a kinase inhibitor that shows unexpected anti-proliferative activity against cells, including against tumor cells, and anti-tumor activity in xenograft tumor models. The compound or a suitable salt or prodrug thereof is useful for the treatment of individuals suffering from a cancer or another proliferative disorder or disease. |
