Benzamide derivatives for inhibiting the activity of ABL1, ABL2 and BCR-ABL1
The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I): in which Y, Y 1 , R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 are defined in the Summary of the Invention; capable of inhibiting the tyrosine kinase enzymatic activity of the Abelson protein (ABL1), the Abelson-related protein (ABL2) and related chimeric proteins, in particular BCR-ABL1. The invention further provides a process for the preparation of compounds of the invention, pharmaceutical preparations comprising such compounds and methods of using such compounds in the treatment of cancers.
