Abstract
This disclosure provides compounds of formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, that inhibit Dual specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A (DYRK1A). These chemical entities are useful, e.g., for treating a condition, disease or disorder in which increased (e.g., excessive) DYRK1A activation contributes to the pathology and/or symptoms and/or progression of the condition, disease or disorder (e.g., a neurological disorder) in a subject (e.g., a human). This disclosure also provides compositions containing the same as well as methods of using and making the same.
