2-Methoxy-4-[4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)piperidin-1-yl]aniline is a cycloalkylamine analogue that can be used as a component of organic synthesis intermediates for the synthesis of the active compound ASP3026. ASP3026 is an orally available receptor tyrosine kinase anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) small molecule inhibitor with promising anti-tumour and apoptosis-inducing effects, which has been used in the study of solid tumours, B-cell lymphomas, advanced malignant tumours, interstitial lymphoma kinase-positive and proto-oncogene tyrosine protein kinase ROS-positive therapy.
