Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most prevalent brain tumor in children. Although the current cure rate stands at approximately 70%, the existing treatments that involve a combination of radio- and chemotherapy are highly detrimental to the patients' quality of life. These aggressive therapies often result in a significant reduction in the overall well-being of the patients.

Although the cure rate can be as high as 70%, current treatments (surgery, radio- and chemotherapy) excessively affect the patients' quality of life. Relapses cannot be controlled by conventional or targeted treatments and are usually fatal.

Despite a multimodal treatment, 30% of the patients eventually relapse, with the fatal appearance of metastases within 5 years. The major actors of metastatic dissemination are the lymphatic vessel growth factor, VEGFC, and its receptors/co-receptors.

The 1,2,4-triazole synthesis was revisited for the first series of pyridyl derivatives. The biological results revealed the efficiency of the 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole core that could not be replaced and a clear beneficial effect of a 3-bromophenylamino moiety in position 3 of the triazole for both series (compounds 2.
