Abstract Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a type of cancer caused by the translocation between ABL1 gene in chromosome 9 and the BCR gene in chromosome. This translocation leads to the formation of fusion protein BCR-ABL which are constitutively active tyrosine kinase that induces the pathogenesis of CML. Despite the presence of several well-known inhibitors such as imatinib, Bcr-Abl tyrosine-kinase inhibitors are still receiving significant interest due to the tolerance by the T315I mutation. Therefore, it is important to discover new T315I-mutant BCR-ABL-target inhibitors. Here we describe a imidazopyridine-based type II inhibitors which are targeting T315I-mutated BCR-ABL. The compounds showed significant in vitro efficacy against BCR-ABL-T315I as well as BCR-ABL-WT. In addition, pharmacokinetic data and DMPK profile displayed that the several resulting compounds have optimal ADME properties. Thus, the imidazopyridine-based compounds which are synthesized in this study will be further investigated for the development of a new target treatment for CML.
