The present invention covers 2-methyl-quinazoline compounds of general formula (I) as described and defined herein, methods of preparing said compounds, intermediate compounds useful for preparing said compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and combinations comprising said compounds, and the use of said compounds for manufacturing pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment or prophylaxis of diseases, in particular of hyperproliferative disorders, as a sole agent or in combination with other active ingredients.


BACKGROUND

The present invention covers 2-methyl-quinazoline compounds of general formula (I) which inhibit the Ras-Sos interaction.


In the 2-position substituted quinazoline compounds are described e.g. in EP 0326328, EP 0326329, WO93/007124, WO2003/087098 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,236,925. These compounds are either not described as pharmaceutically active compounds or, if they are described as pharmacologically active compounds, they are described as compounds having affinity to the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR).


In the majority (45-100%) of patients receiving EGFR inhibitors skin toxicity is a class-specific side effect that is typically manifested as a papulopustular rash. The skin toxicity is related to the inhibition of EGFR in the skin, which is crucial for the normal development and physiology of the epidermis.


However, the state of the art does not describe:

    • the 2-methyl substituted quinazoline compounds of general formula (I) of the present invention as described and defined herein, i.e. compounds having a quinazoline core bearing a methyl group on the carbon atom 2 which effectively and selectively inhibit the Ras-Sos interaction without significantly targeting the EGFR receptor.


Ras proteins play an important role in human cancer. Mutations in Ras proteins can be found in 20-30% of all human tumors and are recognized as tumorigenic drivers especially in lung, colorectal and pancreatic cancers (Malumbres & Barbacid 2002 Nature Reviews Cancer, Pylayeva-Gupta et al. 2011 Nature Reviews Cancer). Three human Ras genes are known that encode four different Ras proteins of 21 kDa size: H-Ras, N-Ras, and two splice variants of K-Ras, namely K-Ras 4A and K-Ras-4B. All Ras isoforms are highly conserved within the GTP-binding domain and differ mainly in the hypervariable C-terminal region. The C-termini of the different Ras-isoforms are posttranslationally modified by lipidation (farnesylation, palmitoylation) to facilitate membrane anchorage. The localization of Ras-proteins at the cytoplasmic membrane provides vicinity to transmembrane growth receptors and has been shown to be essential for transmitting growth signals from extracellular growth factor binding to intracellular downstream pathways. A variety of upstream signals may activate Ras proteins depending on the cellular context, such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR), nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR) and others. Activated Ras can signal through various downstream pathways, e.g. the Raf-MEK-ERK or the PI3K-PDK1-Akt pathways.


On the molecular level, Ras proteins function as molecular switches. By binding GTP and GDP they exist in an active (GTP-bound) and inactive (GDP-bound) state in the cell. Active GTP-loaded Ras recruits other proteins by binding of their cognate Ras-binding domains (RBDs) resulting in activation of the effector protein followed by downstream signalling events of diverse functions, e.g. cytoskeletal rearrangements or transcriptional activation. The activity status of Ras is tightly regulated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) and GTPase activating proteins (GAPs). GEFs function as activators of Ras by promoting the nucleotide exchange from GDP to GTP. GAPs deactivate Ras-GTP by catalyzing the hydrolysis of the bound GTP to GDP. In a cancer cell, point mutations, typically within the GTP-binding region at codon 12, eliminate the ability of RAS to efficiently hydrolyse bound GTP, even in the presence of a GAP. Therefore, cancer cells comprise increased levels of active mutated Ras-GTP, which is thought to be a key factor for driving cancer cell proliferation.


Three main families of RAS-specific GEFs have been identified so far (reviewed in Vigil 2010 Nature Reviews Cancer; Rojas et al 2011, Genes & Cancer 2(3) 298-305). There are two son of sevenless proteins (SOS1 and SOS2), 4 different isoforms of Ras guanine nucleotide releasing proteins (Ras-GRP1-4) and two Ras guanine nucleotide releasing factors (Ras-GRF1 and 2). The SOS proteins are ubiquitously expressed and are recruited to sites of activated growth factors. Ras-GRFs are expressed mainly in the nervous system, where they are involved in Calcium-dependent activation of Ras. In contrast, Ras GRP proteins are expressed in hematopoietic cells and act in concert with non-receptor tyrosine kinases. In the context of cancer, mainly SOS proteins have been found to be involved.


Targeting Ras for cancer therapy has been a dream since the 1990s (Downward 2002 Nature Reviews Cancer, Krens et al. 2010 Drug Discovery Today). Due to the compact nature, the high affinity towards GDP and GTP in combination with high intracellular GTP concentrations, the Ras protein itself has always been considered to be undruggable, i.e. the chance to identify small chemical molecules that would bind to and inhibit active Ras was rated extremely low. Alternative approaches have been undertaken to reduce Ras signaling, e.g. by addressing more promising drug targets such as enzymes involved in the posttranslational modification of Ras proteins, especially farnesyltransferase and geranylgeranyltransferase (Berndt 2011 Nature Reviews Cancer). Inhibitors of farnesyltransferase (FTIs) were identified and developed with promising antitumor effects in preclinical models. Unexpectedly, in clinical trials these inhibitors have been of limited efficacy. Targeting upstream and downstream kinases involved in Ras signaling pathways has been more successful. Several drugs are and have been in clinical trials that inhibit different kinases, e.g. EGFR, Raf, MEK, Akt, PI3K (Takashima & Faller 2013 Expert Opin. Ther. Targets). Marketed cancer drugs are available that inhibit Raf, EGFR or MEK.


Nevertheless, there is still a large unmet need for the treatment of Ras-dependent tumors that are resistant against current therapies. Many research groups have been active to identify small molecules that target Ras directly (Ras small molecules have been reviewed in: Cox et al. 2014 Nature Reviews Drug Discovery; Stephen et al. 2014 Cancer Cell; Hattum & Waldmann 2014 Chemistry & Biology, Spiegel et al. 2014 Nature Chemical Biology). One group of inhibitors comprises small molecules that inhibit the interaction of Ras with its effectors Raf or PI3K. Another group of compounds acts as covalent inhibitors of a specific cysteine mutant form of K-Ras (glycine to cysteine point mutation G12C). The specific targeting of the Ras-G12C mutant might have the benefit of reduced side effects, as the wildtype Ras proteins should not be affected. Furthermore, several reports show small molecules and peptides that interrupt the GEF assisted activation of Ras. There seem to be several different binding sites possible that result in this mode of action. Inhibitors may bind to Ras or to the GEF in an allosteric or orthosteric fashion. All these approaches of direct Ras-targeting are in preclinical research stage and the affinity of published small molecule inhibitors is still in the micromolar range. Stabilized peptides have been shown to be active in the nanomolar range. (Leshchiner et al. 2015 PNAS). Their usefulness as drugs in a clinical setting has to be awaited.


The Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) is a tyrosine kinase (TK) receptor that is activated upon binding to the Epidermal Growth Factor and other growth factor ligands, triggering several downstream pathways, including RAS/MAPK, PI3K/Akt and STAT that regulate different cellular processes, including DNA synthesis and proliferation (Russo A, Oncotarget. 4254, 2015). The family of HER (ErbB) receptor tyrosine kinases consists of four members, ie, epidermal growth factor receptors [EGFR (HER1 or ErbB1), HER2 (ErbB2, neu), HER3 (ErbB3), and HER4 (ErbB4)]. Overexpression, mutation, or aberrant activity of these receptors has been implicated in various types of cancer (Feldinger K, Breast Cancer (Dove Med Press), 2015, 7, 147).


First-Generation Inhibitors


Erlotinib and Gefitinib are small molecule inhibitors of the EGFR/HER-1 (human epidermal growth factor receptor) tyrosine kinase. Erlotinib and Gefitinib were developed as reversible and highly specific small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors that competitively block the binding of adenosine triphosphate to its binding site in the tyrosine kinase domain of EGFR, thereby inhibiting autophosphorylation and blocking downstream signaling (Cataldo V D, N Engl J Med, 2011, 364, 947).


Second-Generation Inhibitors


Afatinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) approved for the first-line treatment of patients with NSCLC whose tumors are driven by activating mutations of genes coding for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Afatinib is also an inhibitor of a specific EGFR mutation (T790M) that causes resistance to first-generation EGFR-targeted TKIs in about half of patients receiving those drugs. (Engle J A, Am J Health Syst Pharm 2014, 71 (22), 1933).


Neratinib, a pan-HER inhibitor, irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor binds and inhibits the tyrosine kinase activity of epidermal growth factor receptors, EGFR (or HER1), HER2 and HER4, which leads to reduced phosphorylation and activation of downstream signaling pathways. Neratinib has been shown to be effective against HER2-overexpressing or mutant tumors in vitro and in vivo. Neratinib is currently being investigated in various clinical trials in breast cancers and other solid tumors, including those with HER2 mutation (Feldinger K, Breast Cancer (Dove Med Press), 2015, 7, 147).


Dacomitinib is an irreversible inhibitor of EGFR, HER2, and HER4. In preclinical cell lines and xenograft studies, dacomitinib demonstrated activities against both activating EGFR mutations and EGFR T790M (Liao B C, Curr Opin Oncol. 2015, 27(2), 94).


Third-Generation Inhibitors


The third-generation EGFR-TKIs were designed to inhibit EGFR T790M while sparing wild-type EGFR.


AZD9291 (AstraZeneca, Macclesfield, UK), a mono-anilino-pyrimidine compound, is an irreversible mutant selective EGFR-TKI. This drug is structurally different from the first and second-generation EGFR-TKIs. In preclinical studies, it potently inhibited phosphorylation of EGFR in cell lines with activating EGFR mutations (EGFR den and EGFR L858R) and EGFR T790M. AZD9291 also caused profound and sustained tumor regression in tumor xenograft and transgenic mouse models harboring activating EGFR mutations and EGFR T790M. AZD9291 was less potent in inhibiting phosphorylation of wild-type EGFR cell lines (Liao B C, Curr Opin Oncol. 2015, 27(2), 94).


Rociletinib (CO-1686) (Clovis Oncology, Boulder, Colo), a 2,4-disubstituted pyrimidine molecule, is an irreversible mutant selective EGFR-TKI. In preclinical studies, CO-1686 led to tumor regression in cell-lines, xenograft models, and transgenic mouse models harboring activating EGFR mutations and EGFR T790M (Walter A O, Cancer Discov, 2013, 3(12), 1404).


HM61713 (Hanmi Pharmaceutical Company Ltd, Seoul, South Korea) is an orally administered, selective inhibitor for activating EGFR mutations and EGFR T790M. It has low activity against wild-type EGFR (Steuer C E, Cancer. 2015, 121(8), E1).


It has now been found, and this constitutes the basis of the present invention, that the compounds of the present invention have surprising and advantageous properties.


In particular, the compounds of the present invention have surprisingly been found to effectively and selectively inhibit the Ras-Sos interaction without significantly targeting the EGFR receptor and may therefore be used for the treatment or prophylaxis of hyper-proliferative disorders, in particular cancer.

In particular, such a leaving group is selected from the group comprising: halide, in particular fluoride, chloride, bromide or iodide, (methylsulfonyl)oxy, [(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]oxy, [(nonafluorobutyl)-sulfonyl]oxy, (phenylsulfonyl)oxy, [(4-methylphenyl)sulfonyl]oxy, [(4-bromophenyl)sulfonyl]oxy, [(4-nitrophenyl)sulfonyl]oxy, [(2-nitrophenyl)sulfonyl]oxy, [(4-isopropylphenyl)sulfonyl]oxy, [(2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl)sulfonyl]oxy, [(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)sulfonyl]oxy, [(4-tert-butylphenyl)sulfonyl]oxy and [(4-methoxyphenyl)sulfonyl]oxy.


It is possible for the compounds of general formula (I) to exist as isotopic variants. The invention therefore includes one or more isotopic variant(s) of the compounds of general formula (I), particularly deuterium-containing compounds of general formula (I).


The term “Isotopic variant” of a compound or a reagent is defined as a compound exhibiting an unnatural proportion of one or more of the isotopes that constitute such a compound.


The term “Isotopic variant of the compound of general formula (I)” is defined as a compound of general formula (I) exhibiting an unnatural proportion of one or more of the isotopes that constitute such a compound.


The expression “unnatural proportion” means a proportion of such isotope which is higher than its natural abundance. The natural abundances of isotopes to be applied in this context are described in “Isotopic Compositions of the Elements 1997”, Pure Appl. Chem., 70(1), 217-235, 1998.


Examples of such isotopes include stable and radioactive isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine, such as 2H (deuterium), 3H (tritium), 11C, 13C, 14C, 15N, 17O, 18O, 32P, 33P, 33S, 34S, 35S, 36S, 18F, 36Cl, 82Br, 123I, 124I, 125I, 129I and 131I, respectively.


With respect to the treatment and/or prophylaxis of the disorders specified herein the isotopic variant(s) of the compounds of general formula (I) preferably contain deuterium (“deuterium-containing compounds of general formula (I)”). Isotopic variants of the compounds of general formula (I) in which one or more radioactive isotopes, such as 3H or 14O, are incorporated are useful e.g. in drug and/or substrate tissue distribution studies. These isotopes are particularly preferred for the ease of their incorporation and detectability. Positron emitting isotopes such as 18F or 11C may be incorporated into a compound of general formula (I). These isotopic variants of the compounds of general formula (I) are useful for in vivo imaging applications. Deuterium-containing and 13C-containing compounds of general formula (I) can be used in mass spectrometry analyses in the context of preclinical or clinical studies.


Isotopic variants of the compounds of general formula (I) can generally be prepared by methods known to a person skilled in the art, such as those described in the schemes and/or examples herein, by substituting a reagent for an isotopic variant of said reagent, preferably for a deuterium-containing reagent. Depending on the desired sites of deuteration, in some cases deuterium from D2O can be incorporated either directly into the compounds or into reagents that are useful for synthesizing such compounds. Deuterium gas is also a useful reagent for incorporating deuterium into molecules. Catalytic deuteration of olefinic bonds and acetylenic bonds is a rapid route for incorporation of deuterium. Metal catalysts (i.e. Pd, Pt, and Rh) in the presence of deuterium gas can be used to directly exchange deuterium for hydrogen in functional groups containing hydrocarbons. A variety of deuterated reagents and synthetic building blocks are commercially available from companies such as for example C/D/N Isotopes, Quebec, Canada; Cambridge Isotope Laboratories Inc., Andover, MA, USA; and CombiPhos Catalysts, Inc., Princeton, NJ, USA.


The term “deuterium-containing compound of general formula (I)” is defined as a compound of general formula (I), in which one or more hydrogen atom(s) is/are replaced by one or more deuterium atom(s) and in which the abundance of deuterium at each deuterated position of the compound of general formula (I) is higher than the natural abundance of deuterium, which is about 0.015%. Particularly, in a deuterium-containing compound of general formula (I) the abundance of deuterium at each deuterated position of the compound of general formula (I) is higher than 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70% or 80%, preferably higher than 90%, 95%, 96% or 97%, even more preferably higher than 98% or 99% at said position(s). It is understood that the abundance of deuterium at each deuterated position is independent of the abundance of deuterium at other deuterated position(s).


The selective incorporation of one or more deuterium atom(s) into a compound of general formula (I) may alter the physicochemical properties (such as for example acidity [C. L. Perrin, et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2007, 129, 4490], basicity [C. L. Perrin et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2005, 127, 9641], lipophilicity [B. Testa et al., Int. J. Pharm., 1984, 19(3), 271]) and/or the metabolic profile of the molecule and may result in changes in the ratio of parent compound to metabolites or in the amounts of metabolites formed. Such changes may result in certain therapeutic advantages and hence may be preferred in some circumstances. Reduced rates of metabolism and metabolic switching, where the ratio of metabolites is changed, have been reported (A. E. Mutlib et al., Toxicol. Appl. Pharmacol., 2000, 169, 102). These changes in the exposure to parent drug and metabolites can have important consequences with respect to the pharmacodynamics, tolerability and efficacy of a deuterium-containing compound of general formula (I). In some cases deuterium substitution reduces or eliminates the formation of an undesired or toxic metabolite and enhances the formation of a desired metabolite (e.g. Nevirapine: A. M. Sharma et al., Chem. Res. Toxicol., 2013, 26, 410; Efavirenz: A. E. Mutlib et al., Toxicol. Appl. Pharmacol., 2000, 169, 102). In other cases the major effect of deuteration is to reduce the rate of systemic clearance. As a result, the biological half-life of the compound is increased. The potential clinical benefits would include the ability to maintain similar systemic exposure with decreased peak levels and increased trough levels. This could result in lower side effects and enhanced efficacy, depending on the particular compound's pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship. ML-337 (C. J. Wenthur et al., J. Med. Chem., 2013, 56, 5208) and Odanacatib (K. Kassahun et al., WO2012/112363) are examples for this deuterium effect.


Still other cases have been reported in which reduced rates of metabolism result in an increase in exposure of the drug without changing the rate of systemic clearance (e.g. Rofecoxib: F. Schneider et al., Arzneim. Forsch./Drug. Res., 2006, 56, 295; Telaprevir: F. Maltais et al., J. Med. Chem., 2009, 52, 7993). Deuterated drugs showing this effect may have reduced dosing requirements (e.g. lower number of doses or lower dosage to achieve the desired effect) and/or may produce lower metabolite loads.


A compound of general formula (I) may have multiple potential sites of attack for metabolism. To optimize the above-described effects on physicochemical properties and metabolic profile, deuterium-containing compounds of general formula (I) having a certain pattern of one or more deuterium-hydrogen exchange(s) can be selected. Particularly, the deuterium atom(s) of deuterium-containing compound(s) of general formula (I) is/are attached to a carbon atom and/or is/are located at those positions of the compound of general formula (I), which are sites of attack for metabolizing enzymes such as e.g. cytochrome P450.


In another embodiment the present invention concerns a deuterium-containing compound of general formula (I), in which one, two or three of the hydrogen atom(s) in either one or both of the methyl groups shown in general formula (I) is/are replaced with a deuterium atom. Also the hydrogen atom on the carbon atom between the nitrogen atom and the group A1 can be replaced with a deuterium atom either as the single replacement of a hydrogen by a deuterium or in addition to the beforementioned replacements in either one or both of the methyl groups shown in general formula (I).


Where the plural form of the word compounds, salts, polymorphs, hydrates, solvates and the like, is used herein, this is taken to mean also a single compound, salt, polymorph, isomer, hydrate, solvate or the like.


By “stable compound” or “stable structure” is meant a compound that is sufficiently robust to survive isolation to a useful degree of purity from a reaction mixture, and formulation into an efficacious therapeutic agent.


The compounds of the present invention contain at least one or optionally even more asymmetric centres, depending upon the location and nature of the various substituents desired. It is possible that one or more asymmetric carbon atoms are present in the (R) or (S) configuration, which can result in racemic mixtures in the case of a single asymmetric centre, and in diastereomeric mixtures in the case of multiple asymmetric centres. In certain instances, it is possible that asymmetry also be present due to restricted rotation about a given bond, for example, the central bond adjoining two substituted aromatic rings of the specified compounds.


Preferred isomers are those which produce the more desirable biological activity. Separated, pure or partially purified isomers and stereoisomers or racemic or diastereomeric mixtures of the compounds of the present invention are also included within the scope of the present invention. The purification and the separation of such materials can be accomplished by standard techniques known in the art.


The optical isomers can be obtained by resolution of the racemic mixtures according to conventional processes, for example, by the formation of diastereoisomeric salts using an optically active acid or base or formation of covalent diastereomers. Examples of appropriate acids are tartaric, diacetyltartaric, ditoluoyltartaric and camphorsulfonic acid. Mixtures of diastereoisomers can be separated into their individual diastereomers on the basis of their physical and/or chemical differences by methods known in the art, for example, by chromatography or fractional crystallisation. The optically active bases or acids are then liberated from the separated diastereomeric salts. A different process for separation of optical isomers involves the use of chiral chromatography (e.g., HPLC columns using a chiral phase), with or without conventional derivatisation, optimally chosen to maximise the separation of the enantiomers. Suitable HPLC columns using a chiral phase are commercially available, such as those manufactured by Daicel, e.g., Chiracel OD and Chiracel OJ, for example, among many others, which are all routinely selectable. Enzymatic separations, with or without derivatisation, are also useful. The optically active compounds of the present invention can likewise be obtained by chiral syntheses utilizing optically active starting materials.


In order to distinguish different types of isomers from each other reference is made to IUPAC Rules Section E (Pure Appl Chem 45, 11-30, 1976).


The present invention includes all possible stereoisomers of the compounds of the present invention as single stereoisomers, or as any mixture of said stereoisomers, e.g. (R)- or (S) isomers, in any ratio.

Further, it is possible for the compounds of the present invention to exist as tautomers.

Synthesis of Compounds (Overview)

The compounds of the present invention can be prepared as described in the following section. The schemes and the procedures described below illustrate general synthetic routes to the compounds of general formula (I) of the invention and are not intended to be limiting. It is clear to the person skilled in the art that the order of transformations as exemplified in the schemes can be modified in various ways. The order of transformations exemplified in the schemes is therefore not intended to be limiting. In addition, interconversion of any of the substituents can be achieved before and/or after the exemplified transformations. These modifications can be such as the introduction of protecting groups, cleavage of protecting groups, exchange, reduction or oxidation of functional groups, halogenation, metallation, substitution or other reactions known to the person skilled in the art. These transformations include those which introduce a functionality which allows for further interconversion of substituents. Appropriate protecting groups and their introduction and cleavage are well-known to the person skilled in the art (see for example P. G. M. Wuts and T. W. Greene in “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, 4′″ edition, Wiley 2006). Specific examples are described in the subsequent paragraphs. Further, it is possible that two or more successive steps may be performed without work-up being performed between said steps, e.g. a “one-pot” reaction, as is well-known to the person skilled in the art.


The syntheses of the compounds of the present invention are preferably carried out according to the general synthetic sequence, shown in schemes 1-7.

One of the most fundamental characteristics of cancer cells is their ability to sustain chronic proliferation whereas in normal tissues the entry into and progression through the cell division cycle is tightly controlled to ensure a homeostasis of cell number and maintenance of normal tissue function. Loss of proliferation control is emphasized as one of the six hallmarks of cancer [Hanahan D and Weinberg 15 RA, Cell 100, 57, 2000; Hanahan D and Weinberg R A, Cell 144, 646, 2011].


Compounds of general formula (I) of the present invention demonstrate a valuable pharmacological spectrum of action which could not have been predicted. Compounds of the present invention have surprisingly been found to effectively inhibit the Ras-Sos interaction and it is possible therefore that said compounds be used for the treatment or prophylaxis of diseases, preferably hyperproliferative disorders in humans and animals.


Compounds of the present invention can be utilized to inhibit, block, reduce, decrease, etc., cell proliferation and/or cell division, and/or produce apoptosis. This method comprises administering to a mammal in need thereof, including a human, an amount of a compound of general formula (I) of the present invention, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, isomer, polymorph, metabolite, hydrate, solvate or ester thereof, which is effective to treat the disorder.


Hyperproliferative disorders include, but are not limited to, for example: psoriasis, keloids, and other hyperplasias affecting the skin, benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), solid tumours, such as cancers of the breast, respiratory tract, brain, reproductive organs, digestive tract, urinary tract, eye, liver, skin, head and neck, thyroid, parathyroid and their distant metastases. Those disorders also include lymphomas, sarcomas, and leukaemias.


Examples of breast cancers include, but are not limited to, invasive ductal carcinoma, invasive lobular carcinoma, ductal carcinoma in situ, and lobular carcinoma in situ.


Examples of cancers of the respiratory tract include, but are not limited to, small-cell and non-small-cell lung carcinoma, as well as bronchial adenoma and pleuropulmonary blastoma.


Examples of brain cancers include, but are not limited to, brain stem and hypophtalmic glioma, cerebellar and cerebral astrocytoma, medulloblastoma, ependymoma, as well as neuroectodermal and pineal tumour.


Tumours of the male reproductive organs include, but are not limited to, prostate and testicular cancer.


Tumours of the female reproductive organs include, but are not limited to, endometrial, cervical, ovarian, vaginal, and vulvar cancer, as well as sarcoma of the uterus.


Tumours of the digestive tract include, but are not limited to, anal, colon, colorectal, oesophageal, gallbladder, gastric, pancreatic, rectal, small-intestine, and salivary gland cancers.


Tumours of the urinary tract include, but are not limited to, bladder, penile, kidney, renal pelvis, ureter, urethral and human papillary renal cancers.


Eye cancers include, but are not limited to, intraocular melanoma and retinoblastoma.


Examples of liver cancers include, but are not limited to, hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cell carcinomas with or without fibrolamellar variant), cholangiocarcinoma (intrahepatic bile duct carcinoma), and mixed hepatocellular cholangiocarcinoma.


Skin cancers include, but are not limited to, squamous cell carcinoma, Kaposi's sarcoma, malignant melanoma, Merkel cell skin cancer, and non-melanoma skin cancer.


Head-and-neck cancers include, but are not limited to, laryngeal, hypopharyngeal, nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal cancer, lip and oral cavity cancer and squamous cell.


Lymphomas include, but are not limited to, AIDS-related lymphoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease, and lymphoma of the central nervous system.


Sarcomas include, but are not limited to, sarcoma of the soft tissue, osteosarcoma, malignant fibrous histiocytoma, lymphosarcoma, and rhabdomyosarcoma.


Leukemias include, but are not limited to, acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia, and hairy cell leukemia.


The present invention also provides methods of treating angiogenic disorders including diseases associated with excessive and/or abnormal angiogenesis.


Inappropriate and ectopic expression of angiogenesis can be deleterious to an organism. A number of pathological conditions are associated with the growth of extraneous blood vessels. These include, for example, diabetic retinopathy, ischemic retinal-vein occlusion, and retinopathy of prematurity [Aiello et al., New Engl. J. Med., 1994, 331, 1480; Peer et al., Lab. Invest., 1995, 72, 638], age-related macular degeneration (AMD) [Lopez et al., Invest. Opththalmol. Vis. Sci., 1996, 37, 855], neovascular glaucoma, psoriasis, retrolental fibroplasias, angiofibroma, inflammation, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), restenosis, in-stent restenosis, vascular graft restenosis, etc. In addition, the increased blood supply associated with cancerous and neoplastic tissue, encourages growth, leading to rapid tumour enlargement and metastasis. Moreover, the growth of new blood and lymph vessels in a tumour provides an escape route for renegade cells, encouraging metastasis and the consequence spread of the cancer. Thus, compounds of general formula (I) of the present invention can be utilized to treat and/or prevent any of the aforementioned angiogenesis disorders, for example by inhibiting and/or reducing blood vessel formation; by inhibiting, blocking, reducing, decreasing, etc. endothelial cell proliferation, or other types involved in angiogenesis, as well as causing cell death or apoptosis of such cell types.


These disorders have been well characterized in humans, but also exist with a similar etiology in other mammals, and can be treated by administering pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention.


The term “treating” or “treatment” as stated throughout this document is used conventionally, for example the management or care of a subject for the purpose of combating, alleviating, reducing, relieving, improving the condition of a disease or disorder, such as a carcinoma.


The compounds of the present invention can be used in particular in therapy and prevention, i.e. prophylaxis, of tumour growth and metastases, especially in solid tumours of all indications and stages with or without pre-treatment of the tumour growth.


Generally, the use of chemotherapeutic agents and/or anti-cancer agents in combination with a compound or pharmaceutical composition of the present invention will serve to:

    • 1. yield better efficacy in reducing the growth of a tumour or even eliminate the tumour as compared to administration of either agent alone,
    • 2. provide for the administration of lesser amounts of the administered chemotherapeutic agents,
    • 3. provide for a chemotherapeutic treatment that is well tolerated in the patient with fewer deleterious pharmacological complications than observed with single agent chemotherapies and certain other combined therapies,
    • 4. provide for treating a broader spectrum of different cancer types in mammals, especially humans,
    • 5. provide for a higher response rate among treated patients,
    • 6. provide for a longer survival time among treated patients compared to standard chemotherapy treatments,
    • 7. provide a longer time for tumour progression, and/or
    • 8. yield efficacy and tolerability results at least as good as those of the agents used alone, compared to known instances where other cancer agent combinations produce antagonistic effects.


In addition, the compounds of general formula (I) of the present invention can also be used in combination with radiotherapy and/or surgical intervention.


In a further embodiment of the present invention, the compounds of general formula (I) of the present invention may be used to sensitize a cell to radiation, i.e. treatment of a cell with a compound of the present invention prior to radiation treatment of the cell renders the cell more susceptible to DNA damage and cell death than the cell would be in the absence of any treatment with a compound of the present invention. In one aspect, the cell is treated with at least one compound of general formula (I) of the present invention.


Thus, the present invention also provides a method of killing a cell, wherein a cell is administered one or more compounds of the present invention in combination with conventional radiation therapy.


The present invention also provides a method of rendering a cell more susceptible to cell death, wherein the cell is treated with one or more compounds of general formula (I) of the present invention prior to the treatment of the cell to cause or induce cell death. In one aspect, after the cell is treated with one or more compounds of general formula (I) of the present invention, the cell is treated with at least one compound, or at least one method, or a combination thereof, in order to cause DNA damage for the purpose of inhibiting the function of the normal cell or killing the cell.


In other embodiments of the present invention, a cell is killed by treating the cell with at least one DNA damaging agent, i.e. after treating a cell with one or more compounds of general formula (I) of the present invention to sensitize the cell to cell death, the cell is treated with at least one DNA damaging agent to kill the cell. DNA damaging agents useful in the present invention include, but are not limited to, chemotherapeutic agents (e.g. cis platin), ionizing radiation (X-rays, ultraviolet radiation), carcinogenic agents, and mutagenic agents.


In other embodiments, a cell is killed by treating the cell with at least one method to cause or induce DNA damage. Such methods include, but are not limited to, activation of a cell signalling pathway that results in DNA damage when the pathway is activated, inhibiting of a cell signalling pathway that results in DNA damage when the pathway is inhibited, and inducing a biochemical change in a cell, wherein the change results in DNA damage. By way of a non-limiting example, a DNA repair pathway in a cell can be inhibited, thereby preventing the repair of DNA damage and resulting in an abnormal accumulation of DNA damage in a cell.


In one aspect of the invention, a compound of general formula (I) of the present invention is administered to a cell prior to the radiation or other induction of DNA damage in the cell. In another aspect of the invention, a compound of general formula (I) of the present invention is administered to a cell concomitantly with the radiation or other induction of DNA damage in the cell. In yet another aspect of the invention, a compound of general formula (I) of the present invention is administered to a cell immediately after radiation or other induction of DNA damage in the cell has begun.


In another aspect, the cell is in vitro. In another embodiment, the cell is in vivo.


It is possible for the compounds according to the invention to have systemic and/or local activity. For this purpose, they can be administered in a suitable manner, such as, for example, via the oral, parenteral, pulmonary, nasal, sublingual, lingual, buccal, rectal, vaginal, dermal, transdermal, conjunctival, otic route or as an implant or stent.


For these administration routes, it is possible for the compounds according to the invention to be administered in suitable administration forms.


For oral administration, it is possible to formulate the compounds according to the invention to dosage forms known in the art that deliver the compounds of the invention rapidly and/or in a modified manner, such as, for example, tablets (uncoated or coated tablets, for example with enteric or controlled release coatings that dissolve with a delay or are insoluble), orally-disintegrating tablets, films/wafers, films/lyophylisates, capsules (for example hard or soft gelatine capsules), sugar-coated tablets, granules, pellets, powders, emulsions, suspensions, aerosols or solutions. It is possible to incorporate the compounds according to the invention in crystalline and/or amorphised and/or dissolved form into said dosage forms.


Parenteral administration can be effected with avoidance of an absorption step (for example intravenous, intraarterial, intracardial, intraspinal, intralumbal or intratumoral) or with inclusion of absorption (for example intramuscular, subcutaneous, intracutaneous, percutaneous or intraperitoneal). Administration forms which are suitable for parenteral administration are, inter alia, preparations for injection and infusion in the form of solutions, suspensions, emulsions, lyophylisates or sterile powders.

Based upon standard laboratory techniques known to evaluate compounds useful for the treatment of hyper-proliferative disorders, by standard toxicity tests and by standard pharmacological assays for the determination of treatment of the conditions identified above in mammals, and by comparison of these results with the results of known active ingredients or medicaments that are used to treat these conditions, the effective dosage of the compounds of the present invention can readily be determined for treatment of each desired indication. The amount of the active ingredient to be administered in the treatment of one of these conditions can vary widely according to such considerations as the particular compound and dosage unit employed, the mode of administration, the period of treatment, the age and sex of the patient treated, and the nature and extent of the condition treated.


The total amount of the active ingredient to be administered will generally range from about 0.001 mg/kg to about 200 mg/kg body weight per day, and preferably from about 0.01 mg/kg to about 20 mg/kg body weight per day. Clinically useful dosing schedules will range from one to three times a day dosing to once every four weeks dosing. In addition, it is possible for “drug holidays”, in which a patient is not dosed with a drug for a certain period of time, to be beneficial to the overall balance between pharmacological effect and tolerability. It is possible for a unit dosage to contain from about 0.5 mg to about 1500 mg of active ingredient, and can be administered one or more times per day or less than once a day. The average daily dosage for administration by injection, including intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous and parenteral injections, and use of infusion techniques will preferably be from 0.01 to 200 mg/kg of total body weight. The average daily rectal dosage regimen will preferably be from 0.01 to 200 mg/kg of total body weight. The average daily vaginal dosage regimen will preferably be from 0.01 to 200 mg/kg of total body weight. The average daily topical dosage regimen will preferably be from 0.1 to 200 mg administered between one to four times daily. The transdermal concentration will preferably be that required to maintain a daily dose of from 0.01 to 200 mg/kg. The average daily inhalation dosage regimen will preferably be from 0.01 to 100 mg/kg of total body weight.


Of course the specific initial and continuing dosage regimen for each patient will vary according to the nature and severity of the condition as determined by the attending diagnostician, the activity of the specific compound employed, the age and general condition of the patient, time of administration, route of administration, rate of excretion of the drug, drug combinations, and the like. The desired mode of treatment and number of doses of a compound of the present invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester or composition thereof can be ascertained by those skilled in the art using conventional treatment tests.

In some cases, the compounds may be purified by crystallization. In some cases, impurities may be stirred out using a suitable solvent. In some cases, the compounds may be purified by chromatography, particularly flash column chromatography, using for example prepacked silica gel cartridges, e.g. Biotage SNAP cartidges KP-Sil® or KP-NH® in combination with a Biotage autopurifier system (SP4® or Isolera Four®) and eluents such as gradients of hexane/ethyl acetate or DCM/methanol. In some cases, the compounds may be purified by preparative HPLC using for example a Waters autopurifier equipped with a diode array detector and/or on-line electrospray ionization mass spectrometer in combination with a suitable prepacked reverse phase column and eluents such as gradients of water and acetonitrile which may contain additives such as trifluoroacetic acid, formic acid or aqueous ammonia.


In some cases, purification methods as described above can provide those compounds of the present invention which possess a sufficiently basic or acidic functionality in the form of a salt, such as, in the case of a compound of the present invention which is sufficiently basic, a trifluoroacetate or formate salt for example, or, in the case of a compound of the present invention which is sufficiently acidic, an ammonium salt for example. A salt of this type can either be transformed into its free base or free acid form, respectively, by various methods known to the person skilled in the art, or be used as salts in subsequent biological assays. It is to be understood that the specific form (e.g. salt, free base etc.) of a compound of the present invention as isolated and as described herein is not necessarily the only form in which said compound can be applied to a biological assay in order to quantify the specific biological activity.

The in vitro activity of the compounds of the present invention can be demonstrated in the following assays:


Biochemical assay 1: K-RasG12C Interaction Assay with hSOS1


This assay quantifies the equilibrium interaction of human SOS1 with K-RasGl2C. Detection of the interaction is achieved by measuring homogenous time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (HTRF) from antiGST-Europium (FRET donor) bound to GST-K-RasG12C to anti-6His-XL665 bound to His-tagged hSOS1 (FRET-acceptor).


The assay buffer contained 5 mM HEPES pH 7.4 (Applichem), 150 mM NaCl (Sigma), 10 mM EDTA (Promega), 1 mM DTT (Thermofisher), 0.05% BSA Fraction V, pH 7.0, (ICN Biomedicals), 0.0025% (v/v) Igepal (Sigma) and 100 mM KF (FLUKA).


The expression and purification of N-terminal GST-tagged human K-RasG120 and N-terminal His-tagged human SOS1 is described below. Concentrations of protein batches used were optimized to be within the linear range of the HTRF signal. A Ras working solution was prepared in assay buffer containing typically 10 nM GST-hK-RasG12C and 2 nM antiGST-Eu(K) (Cisbio, France). A SOS working solution was prepared in assay buffer containing typically 20 nM His-hSOS1 and 10 nM anti-6His-XL665 (Cisbio, France). An inhibitor control solution was prepared in assay buffer containing 10 nM anti-6His-XL665 without hSOS1.


Fifty nl of a 100-fold concentrated solution of the test compound in DMSO were transferred into a black microtiter test plate (384 or 1536, Greiner Bio-One, Germany). For this, either a Hummingbird liquid handler (Digilab, MA, USA) or an Echo acoustic system (Labcyte, CA, USA) was used.


All steps of the assay were performed at 20° C. A volume of 2.5 μl of the Ras working solution was added to all wells of the test plate using a Multidrop dispenser (Thermo Labsystems). After 2 min preincubation, 2.5 μl of the SOS working solution were added to all wells except for those wells at the side of the test plate that were subsequently filled with 2.5 μl of the inhibitor control solution. After 60 min incubation the fluorescence was measured with a Pherastar (BMG, Germany) using the HTRF module (excitation 337 nm, emission 1: 620 nm, emission 2: 665 nm).


The ratiometric data (emission 2 divided by emission 1) were normalized using the controls (DMSO=0% inhibition, inhibition control wells with inhibitor control solution=100% inhibition). Compounds were tested in duplicates at up to 11 concentrations (for example 20 μM, 5.7 μM, 1.6 μM, 0.47 μM, 0.13 μM, 38 nM, 11 nM, 3.1 nM, 0.89 nM, 0.25 nM and 0,073 nM). IC50 values were calculated by 4-Parameter fitting using a commercial software package (Genedata Screener, Switzerland).


Biochemical Assay 2: K-RasG12C Activation Assay by hSOS1 at High GTP Concentration


This assay quantifies human SOS1-mediated nucleotide exchange of K-RasG12C preloaded with a fluorescent GTP-analog and in presence of an excess of free GTP. Loaded hK-RasG12C generates a high HTRF-signal by energy transfer from antiGST-Terbium (FRET donor) bound to K-Ras to the loaded fluorescent GDP analog (FRET-acceptor). SOS1 activity exchanges the fluorescent GDP for non-fluorescent GTP and therefore leads to a reduction of the HTRF signal.


The fluorescent GDP-analog EDA-GDP-Dy647P1 (2′/3′-O-(2-Aminoethyl-carbamoyl)-guanosine-5′-diphosphate labelled with Dy647P1 (Dyomics GmbH, Germany)) was synthesized by Jena Biosciences GmbH (Germany) and supplied as a 1 mM aqueous solution.


The expression and purification of N-terminal GST-tagged human K-RasG120 and N-terminal His-tagged human SOS1 is described below. Concentrations of protein batches used were optimized to be within the linear range of the HTRF signal.


Preparation of GST-tagged hK-RasGl2C loaded with fluorescent nucleotide was performed as follows: incubation of 11.5 μM hK-RasGl2C with 5-fold excess GDP-Dy647 nucleotide (54 μM) in 500 μl NLS-buffer (RAS activation Kit Jena Bioscience, Kat. #PR-950) for 10 min at 37° C. Addition of 20 μl 1 M MgCl2 (Sigma) to final 40 mM and store on ice. Purification into buffer (10 mM HEPES pH 7.4 (Applichem), 150 mM NaCl (Sigma), 5 mM MgCl2 (Sigma)) by use of a PD-Minitrap desalting column (GE Healthcare). Concentration of 1 ml purified hK-Ras-GDP-Dy647 is approx. 4-5 μM.


The assay buffer contained 10 mM HEPES pH 7.4 (Applichem), 150 mM NaCl (Sigma), 5 mM MgCl2 (Sigma), 1 mM DTT (Thermofisher), 0.05% BSA Fraction V, pH 7.0, (ICN Biomedicals), 0.0025% (v/v) Igepal (Sigma).


A Ras working solution was prepared in assay buffer containing typically 80 nM loaded GST-hK-RasG12C-EDA-GDP-Dy647P1 and 2 nM antiGST-Tb (Cisbio, France). A hSOS1 working solution was prepared in assay buffer containing typically 8 nM His-hSOS1 and 100 μM GTP (Jena Bioscience, Germany). An inhibitor control solution was prepared in assay buffer containing the same concentration of hSOS1 without GTP. Alternatively, the inhibitor control solution was prepared by supplementing the hSOS1 working solution with 20 μM of 6,7-dimethoxy-N-[(1R)-1-(1-naphthyl)ethyl]quinazolin-4-amine which was used to calibrate the assay.


Fifty nl of a 100-fold concentrated solution of the test compound in DMSO were transferred into a black microtiter test plate (384 or 1536, Greiner Bio-One, Germany). For this, either a Hummingbird liquid handler (Digilab, MA, USA) or an Echo acoustic system (Labcyte, CA, USA) was used.


All steps of the assay were performed at 20° C. A volume of 2.5 μl of the Ras working solution was added to all wells of the test plate using a Multidrop dispenser (Thermo Labsystems). After 2 min preincubation, 2.5 μl of the hSOS1 working solution were added to all wells except for those wells at the side of the test plate that were subsequently filled with 2.5 μl of the inhibitor control solution. After 20 min incubation the fluorescence was measured with a Pherastar (BMG, Germany) using the HTRF module (excitation 337 nm, emission 1: 620 nm, emission 2: 665 nm).


The ratiometric data (emission 2 divided by emission 1) were normalized using the controls (DMSO=0% inhibition, inhibition control wells with inhibitor control solution=100% inhibition). Compounds were tested in duplicates at up to 11 concentrations (for example 20 μM, 5.7 μM, 1.6 μM, 0.47 μM, 0.13 μM, 38 nM, 11 nM, 3.1 nM, 0.89 nM, 0.25 nM and 0,073 nM). IC50 values were calculated by 4-Parameter fitting using a commercial software package (Genedata Screener, Switzerland).


Biochemical assay 3: K-RasG12C Activation Assay by hSOS1


K-Ras is a small GTPase that can bind GDP and GTP. The guanine nucleotide exchange factor SOS catalyzes the activation of K-Ras by promoting the exchange of GDP to GTP. SOS binds to K-Ras-GDP thereby opening the GDP-binding pocket to facilitate GDP release. Rebinding of excess nucleotide leads to dissociation of the K-Ras-SOS intermediate complex leaving K-Ras loaded with the nucleotide.


This assay quantifies human SOS1-mediated loading of human K-RasG12C-GDP with a fluorescent GTP-analog. Detection of successful loading is achieved by measuring homogenous time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (HTRF) from antiGST-Terbium (FRET donor) bound to GST-K-RasG12C to the loaded fluorescent GTP analog (FRET-acceptor).


The fluorescent GTP-analog EDA-GTP-Dy647P1 (2′/3′-O-(2-Aminoethyl-carbamoyl)-guanosine-5′-triphosphate labelled with Dy647P1 (Dyomics GmbH, Germany)) was synthesized by Jena Biosciences GmbH (Germany) and supplied as a 1 mM aqueous solution.


The assay buffer contained 10 mM HEPES pH 7.4 (Applichem), 150 mM NaCl (Sigma), 5 mM MgCl2 (Sigma), 1 mM DTT (Thermofisher), 0.05% BSA Fraction V, pH 7.0, (ICN Biomedicals), 0.0025% (v/v) Igepal (Sigma).


The expression and purification of N-terminal GST-tagged human K-RasG120 and N-terminal His-tagged human SOS1 is described below. Concentrations of protein batches used were optimized to be within the linear range of the HTRF signal. A Ras working solution was prepared in assay buffer containing typically 100 nM GST-hK-RasG12C and 2 nM antiGST-Tb (Cisbio, France). A hSOS1 working solution was prepared in assay buffer containing typically 20 nM hSOS1 and 200 nM EDA-GTP-Dy647P1. An inhibitor control solution was prepared in assay buffer containing 200 nM EDA-GTP-Dy647P1 without hSOS1.


Fifty nl of a 100-fold concentrated solution of the test compound in DMSO were transferred into a black microtiter test plate (384 or 1536, Greiner Bio-One, Germany). For this, either a Hummingbird liquid handler (Digilab, MA, USA) or an Echo acoustic system (Labcyte, CA, USA) was used.


All steps of the assay were performed at 20° C. A volume of 2.5 μl of the Ras working solution was added to all wells of the test plate using a Multidrop dispenser (Thermo Labsystems). After 10 min preincubation, 2.5 μl of the hSOS1 working solution were added to all wells except for those wells at the side of the test plate that were subsequently filled with 2.5 μl of the inhibitor control solution. After 30 min incubation the fluorescence was measured with a Pherastar (BMG, Germany) using the HTRF module (excitation 337 nm, emission 1: 620 nm, emission 2: 665 nm).


The ratiometric data (emission 2 divided by emission 1) were normalized using the controls (DMSO=0% inhibition, inhibition control wells with inhibitor control solution=100% inhibition). Compounds were tested in duplicates at up to 11 concentrations (for example 20 μM, 5.7 μM, 1.6 μM, 0.47 μM, 0.13 μM, 38 nM, 11 nM, 3.1 nM, 0.89 nM, 0.25 nM and 0,073 nM). IC50 values were calculated by 4-Parameter fitting using a commercial software package (Genedata Screener, Switzerland).


EGFR Kinase Assay


EGFR inhibitory activity of compounds of the present invention was quantified employing the TR-FRET based EGFR assay as described in the following paragraphs.


Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) affinity purified from human carcinoma A431 cells (Sigma-Aldrich, #E3641) was used as kinase. As substrate for the kinase reaction the biotinylated peptide biotin-Ahx-AEEEEYFELVAKKK (SEQ ID NO 5) (C-terminus in amid form) was used which can be purchased e.g. form the company Biosyntan GmbH (Berlin-Buch, Germany).


For the assay 50 nL of a 100 fold concentrated solution of the test compound in DMSO was pipetted into a black low volume 384 well microtiter plate (Greiner Bio-One, Frickenhausen, Germany), 2 μL of a solution of EGFR in aqueous assay buffer [50 mM Hepes/HCl pH 7.0, 1 mM MgCl2, 5 mM MnCl2, 0.5 mM activated sodium ortho-vanadate, 0.005% (v/v) Tween-20]were added and the mixture was incubated for 15 min at 22° C. to allow pre-binding of the test compounds to the enzyme before the start of the kinase reaction. Then the kinase reaction was started by the addition of 3 μL of a solution of adenosine-tri-phosphate (ATP, 16.7 μM=>final conc. in the 5 μL assay volume is 10 μM) and substrate (1.67 μM=>final conc. in the 5 μL assay volume is 1 μM) in assay buffer and the resulting mixture was incubated for a reaction time of 20 min at 22° C. The concentration of EGFR was adjusted depending of the activity of the enzyme lot and was chosen appropriate to have the assay in the linear range, typical concentration were about 3 U/ml. The reaction was stopped by the addition of 5 μl of a solution of HTRF detection reagents (0.1 μM streptavidine-XL665 [Cis Biointernational] and 1 nM PT66-Tb-Cryptate, an terbium-cryptate labelled anti-phospho-tyrosine antibody from Cis Biointernational [instead of the PT66-Tb-cryptate PT66-Eu-Chelate from Perkin Elmer can also be used]) in an aqueous EDTA-solution (80 mM EDTA, 0.2% (w/v) bovine serum albumin in 50 mM HEPES pH 7.5).


The resulting mixture was incubated 1 h at 22° C. to allow the binding of the biotinylated phosphorylated peptide to the streptavidine-XL665 and the PT66-Eu-Chelate. Subsequently the amount of phosphorylated substrate was evaluated by measurement of the resonance energy transfer from the PT66-Tb-Cryptate to the streptavidine-XL665. Therefore, the fluorescence emissions at 620 nm and 665 nm after excitation at 337 nm were measured in a HTRF reader, e.g. a Pherastar (BMG Labtechnologies, Offenburg, Germany) or a Viewlux (Perkin-Elmer). The ratio of the emissions at 665 nm and at 622 nm was taken as the measure for the amount of phosphorylated substrate. The data were normalised (enzyme reaction without inhibitor=0% inhibition, all other assay components but no enzyme=100% inhibition). Usually the test compounds were tested on the same microtiterplate in 11 different concentrations in the range of 20 μM to 0.072 nM (e.g. 20 μM, 5.7 μM, 1.6 μM, 0.47 μM, 0.13 μM, 38 nM, 11 nM, 3.1 nM, 0.89 nM, 0.25 nM and 0.072 nM, the dilution series prepared separately before the assay on the level of the 100 fold concentrated solutions in DMSO by serial dilutions, the exact concentrations may vary depending on the pipettor used) in duplicate values for each concentration and IC50 values were calculated by a 4 parameter fit.

After 10 min preincubation, 2.5 μl of the hSOS2 working solution were added to all wells except for those wells at the side of the test plate that were subsequently filled with 2.5 μl of the inhibitor control solution. After 30 min incubation the fluorescence was measured with a Pherastar (BMG, Germany) using the HTRF module (excitation 337 nm, emission 1: 620 nm, emission 2: 665 nm).


The ratiometric data (emission 2 divided by emission 1) were normalized using the controls (DMSO=0% inhibition, inhibition control wells with inhibitor control solution=100% inhibition).

As exemplified in table 1, the compounds of the present invention inhibit the binding of hSOS1 to KRAS, which was measured in the biochemical KRAS-hSOS1 interaction assay (assay 1). The ability to inhibit the KRAS-hSOS1 interaction results in the inhibition of KRAS activation by the compounds, as measured in biochemical assay 3, which quantifies the hSOS1-mediated nucleotide exchange from KRAS-GDP to KRAS loaded with a fluorescent GTP-analog. Furthermore, the compounds of the present invention show the ability to inhibit the nucleotide exchange reaction catalyzed by hSOS1 in the presence of a high concentration of 50 μM GTP, as measured in assay 2. This ability increases the chance that the compounds will be able to inhibit hSOS1 mediated KRAS-activation inside cells, where high GTP concentrations are present. The chemical structure of the compounds of the present invention is similar to known inhibitors of EGFR-kinase. As shown in table 1, most compounds are inactive against EGFR-kinase up to the highest concentration measured in the assay (>20 μM).


The assay data of the large number of compounds in table 1 gives evidence that compounds which have a pharmacological profile as tested according to assays 1 to 3 and as described in the preceding paragraph will be generally useful to inhibit hSOS1 mediated KRAS-activation inside cells, where high GTP concentrations are present and activity against EGFR-kinase up to highest concentrations (>20 μM) will not be measured in the assay.


Therefore an even further aspect of the present invention refers to the use of a compound which inhibits the binding of hSOS1 to H- or N- or K-RAS including their clinically known mutations and which inhibits the nucleotide exchange reaction catalyzed by hSOS1 in the presence of a concentration of 20 μM or lower, but which is substantially inactive against EGFR-kinase at concentrations of 20 μM or lower for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment or prophylaxis of a hyperproliferative disorder.


Particularly this aspect refers to the use of a compound which inhibits the binding of hSOS1 specifically to K-RAS G12C protein and which inhibits the nucleotide exchange reaction catalyzed by hSOS1 in the presence of a concentration of 20 μM or lower, but which is substantially inactive against EGFR-kinase at concentrations of 20 μM or lower for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment or prophylaxis of a hyperproliferative disorder.


Expression and Purification of hK-Ras:hSOS1 and Crystal Structure Determination of the Compound of Example 200 in Complex with hK-Ras:hSOS1


Expression of hK-RasG12C, K-RasG12C-C118S-D126E-T127S-K128R, hSOS1 and hSOS2 in E. coli:


The applied DNA expression constructs encoding the following protein sequences and its corresponding DNA sequences were optimized for expression in E. coli and synthesized by the GeneArt Technology at Life Technologies:

    • Human K-Ras (P01116-2): hK-Ras_G12C (amino acid 1-169) and K-RasG12C-C118S-D126E-T127S-K128R (amino acid 1-169)
    • Human SOS1 (Q07889): hSOS1 (amino acid 564-1049)
    • Human SOS2 (Q07890): hSOS2 (amino acid 564-1043)


These expression constructs additionally encoded att-site sequences at the 5′ and 3′ ends for subcloning into various destination vectors using the Gateway Technology as well as a TEV (Tobacco Etch Virus) protease site for proteolytic cleavage of tag sequences. The applied destination vectors were: pD-ECO1 (an in-house derivate of the pET vector series from Novagen with ampicillin resistance gene) which provides a N-terminal fusion of a GST-tag to the integrated gene of interest. pD-ECO5 (also an in-house derivative of the pET vector series with ampicillin resistance gene) which provides a N-terminal fusion of a His10-tag (SEQ ID NO: 6) to the integrated gene. To generate the final expression vectors the expression construct of hK-RasG12C was cloned into pD-ECO1. hK-RasG12C-C1185-D126E-T1275-K128R and hSOS1 as well as hSOS2 were cloned into pD-ECO5. The resulting expression vectors were termed pD-ECO1_hK-RasG12C, pD-ECO5_hK-RasG12C-C1185-D126E-T1275-K128R, pD-ECO5_hSOS1, pD-ECO5_hSOS2

E. coli Expression:


The expression vectors were transformed into E. coli strain BL21 (DE3). Cultivation of the transformed strains for expression was done in 10 L and 1 L fermenter.


The cultures were grown in Terrific Broth media (MP Biomedicals, Kat. #113045032) with 200 μg/mL ampicillin at a temperature of 37° C. to a density of 0.6 (00600), shifted to a temperature of 27° C. (for hK-Ras expression vectors) or 17° C. (for hSOS expression vectors), induced for expression with 100 mM IPTG and further cultivated for 24 hours.


Purification


After cultivation the transformed E. coli were harvested by centrifugation and the resulting pellet was suspended in a lysis buffer (see below) and lysed by passing three-times through a high pressure device (Microfluidics). The lysate was centrifuged (49000 g, 45 min, 4° C.) and the supernatant used for further purification.


An Äkta chromatography system was used for all further chromatography steps.


Purification of GST-hK-RasG12C for Biochemical Assays



E. coli culture (transformed with pD-ECO1_hK-RasG120) from a 10 L fermenter was lysed in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT, 0.5% CHAPS, Complete Protease Inhibitor Cocktail, (Roche)). As a first chromatography step the centrifuged lysate was incubated with 50 mL Glutathione Agarose 4B (Macherey-Nagel; 745500.100) in a spinner flask (16 h, 10° C.). The Glutathione Agarose 4B loaded with protein was transferred to a chromatography column connected to an Äkta chromatography system. The column was washed with wash buffer (50 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT) and the bound protein eluted with elution buffer (50 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT, 15 mM Glutathione). The main fractions of the elution peak (monitored by OD280) were pooled.


For further purification by size-exclusion chromatography the above eluate volume was applied to a column Superdex 200 HR prep grade (GE Healthcare) and the resulting peak fractions of the eluted fusion protein were collected. The final yield of hK-RasG12C was about 50 mg purified fusion protein per L culture and the final product concentration was about 1 mg/mL. Native mass spectrometry analyses of the final purified K-RasG12C demonstrated its homogeneous load with GDP.


Purification of His10-hSOS1 and His10-hSOS2 for Biochemical Assays



E. coli transformed with pD-ECO5_hSOS1 or pD-ECO5_hSOS2 were cultured and induced in a fermenter, harvested and lysed in lysis buffer (25 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 20 mM Imidazol, Complete EDTA-free (Roche)). For immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) the centrifuged lysate was incubated with 30 mL Ni-NTA (Macherey-Nagel; #745400.100) in a spinner flask (16 h, 4° C.) and subsequently transferred to a chromatography column connected to an Äkta chromatography system. The column was rinsed with wash buffer (25 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 20 mM Imidazol) and the bound protein eluted with a linear gradient (0-100%) of elution buffer (25 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 300 mM Imidazol). The main fractions of the elution peak (monitored by OD280) containing homogenous His10-hSOS were pooled. The final yield of His10-hSOS1 was about 110 mg purified protein per L culture and the final product concentration was about 2 mg/mL. For His10-hSOS2 the final yield was 190 mg per L culture and the product concentration 6 mg/mL.


Generation complex of hK-RasG12C-C1185-D126E-T1275-K128R/hSOS1 for crystallography Purification of tag-free hK-RasG12C-C1185-D126E-T1275-K128R A process consisting of 4 chromatography steps with an Äkta system was applied to produce tag-free hK-RasG12C-C1185-D126E-T1275-K128R.


An E. coli BL21 (DE3) strain transformed with pD-ECO5_hK-RasG12C-C118S-D126E-T127S-K128R was cultured and induced in a fermenter and the resulting culture was harvested and lysed in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 300 mM NaCl, 10 mM Imidazol, 0.5% CHAPS, Complete-Protease Inhibitor Cocktail-EDTA-free (Roche)). The centrifuged lysate was applied to two linked 5 mL columns of Protino Ni-NTA (Macherey-Nagel; #745415.5) connected to an Äkta chromatography system. Subsequently the column was rinsed with wash buffer (50 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 300 mM NaCl, 10 mM Imidazol) and the bound protein eluted with a linear gradient (0-100%) of elution buffer (50 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 300 mM NaCl, 300 mM Imidazol). The main fractions of the elution peak (monitored by OD280) containing His10-hK-RasG12C-C1185-D126E-T127S-K128R were pooled and applied to a HiPrep Desalting column (GE; #17-5087 01) to change the solution to the cleavage buffer (50 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT). This protein solution was than treated with purified His-TEV protease (ratio hK-Ras:TEV, w/w, 30:1) for 16 h at 4° C. and afterwards passed over a Ni-NTA column to remove non-cleaved hKRas protein, cleaved tag and His-TEV. The processed hK-Ras protein in the pooled flow-through fractions was concentrated using the device Amicon Ultra 15 Ultracel-3 (Centrifugal Filter 3000 NMWL, Merck-Millipore #UFC900324) and applied to size-exclusion chromatography column with Superdex 200 HR prep grade (GE Healthcare) in SEC buffer (20 mM HEPES 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT). The final yield of processed hK-RasG12C-C1185-D126E-T1275-K128R was about 70 mg protein per 10 L culture and the final product concentration was about 4 mg/mL. This final product was homogeneously loaded with GDP as demonstrated by native mass spectrometry analyses.


Purification of Tag-Free hSOS1


A process consisting of 4 chromatography steps with an Äkta system was used to produce tag-free hSOS1.


His10-hK-RasG12C was expressed in E. coli (transformed with pD-ECO5_hSOS1) as described for biochemical assays. For IMAC the centrifuged lysate was directly applied to a 30 mL column with Ni-NTA (Macherey-Nagel) in an Äkta system, rinsed with wash buffer (25 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 20 mM Imidazol) and the bound protein was eluted with a linear gradient (0-100%) of elution buffer (25 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 300 mM Imidazol). The main fractions of the elution peak (monitored by OD280) were passed over a HiPrep Desalting column (GE; #17-5087-01) to change to the cleavage buffer (25 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT). The adjusted protein solution was treated with purified His-TEV protease (ratio hSOS1:TEV, w/w, 30:1) for 16 h at 4° C. and afterwards passed over a Ni-NTA column to remove non-cleaved hSOS1 protein, cleaved tag and His-TEV. The pooled flow through fractions with the processed hSOS1 were concentrated using a Amicon Ultra 15 Ultracel-10 device (Centrifugal Filter 10000 NMWL; Merck-Millipore #UFC901024) and applied to size-exclusion chromatography column with Superdex 200 HR prep grade (GE Healthcare) in SEC buffer (25 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 100 mM NaCl). The final yield of processed hSOS1 was about 275 mg protein per 1 L culture and the final product concentration was about 3.5 mg/mL.


Formation and Purification of a Complex of hK-Ras/hSOS1 for Crystallization


Tag-free hK-RasG12C-C1185-D126E-T1275-K128R was concentrated to 40 mg/mL (2 mL) and tag-free hSOS1 to 44 mg/mL (1.5 mL) using Amicon concentration devices as described before. As efficient K-Ras/SOS1 complex formation requires removal of GDP the concentrated hK-RasG12C-C1185-D126E-T1275-K128R solution was adjusted to 200 mM (NH4)2SO4 and 0.1 mM ZnCl2 and incubated with 75 units of alkaline phosphatase immobilized to agarose (SIGMA; #P0762) and incubated for 1 h at 4° C. in an overhead rotating tube. Afterwards the concentrated tag-free hSOS1 sample was added on a basis of a molar ratio of hK-Ras:hSOS1 of 3:1 and incubated for 16 h at 4° C. in an overhead rotating tube. The suspension was cleared by centrifugation (1.000 g, 10 min, 4° C.) and the supernatant applied to HiPrep desalting column to adjust to the SEC buffer (5 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 100 mM NaCl). The adjusted protein solution was concentrated using an Amicon Ultra 15 Ultracel-10 device (Centrifugal Filter 10000 NMWL; Merck-Millipore #UFC901024) and loaded on a preparative Superdex S200 column in SEC buffer (5 mM Tris HCl 7.5, 100 mM NaCl) thereby enabling an efficient separation of the hK-Ras/hSOS1 complex from the abundant hK-Ras. The fractions with the complex were concentrated so that finally 37 mg of hK-RasG12C-C1185-D126E-T1275-K128R/hSOS1 complex at a concentration of 14.4 mg/mL was achieved. Complex formation was further demonstrated by analytical SEC (S200 5/150 GL; GE; #28-9065-61) as with this method the retention times of the elution peaks for the complexed proteins and individual hK-Ras and hSOS1 component could be clearly distinguished.


Crystallization of K-Ras:hSOS1 Complex


For crystallization, frozen aliquots of the hK-RasG12C-C1185-D126E-T1275-K128R/hSOS1 complex (in the following called “hK-Ras:hSOS1”, total protein concentration 14.4 mg/ml, sequences see FIGS. X2 and X4) were thawed and crystals were grown at 4° C. using the hanging drop method. Drops were made from 1 μl protein solution (in 5 mM Tris pH 7.5; 100 mM NaCl) and 1 μl reservoir solution (2.9-3.4 M sodium formate, 100 mM MES pH 6.5). Small crystals grew within several days. Crystals large enough to obtain high resolution diffraction data appeared only after about 30 days.


Complex Formation of K-Ras:SOS1 and the Compound of Example 200 in the Crystal


For complex formation, a crystal was transferred into a new drop of 1.5 μl storage buffer solution (3.5 M sodium formate, 100 mM MES pH 6.5) and stored over a reservoir solution consisting of 3.5 M sodium formate, 100 mM MES pH 6.5, 5% DMSO. A stock solution of the compound of Example 200 (200 mM in DMSO) was 10-fold diluted with reservoir solution. Over the course of 2 hours, 1.5 μl of this diluted stock solution were added in three steps of 0.5 μl to the drop containing the hK-Ras:hSOS1 crystal, resulting in a final concentration of 10 mM of the compound of Example 200 in the soaking drop. The crystal was soaked in this drop for 1.5 days at 4° C.


Data Collection and Processing


The soaked crystal was briefly immerged in cryo buffer (0.1 M MES pH 6.5, 3.5 M sodium formate, 20% glycerol and 2 mM of the compound of Example 200) and shock frozen in liquid nitrogen. A diffraction data set was collected at beamline 14.1 at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin at 100 K using a wavelength of 0.91841 Å and a PILATUS detector. The diffraction images were processed using the program XDS. The crystal diffracted to a resolution of 2.4 Å and belonged to space group 1422 with unit cell dimensions of a=b=149.3 Å and c=202.4 Å, with one hK-Ras:hSOS1 complex per asymmetric unit.


Structure Determination and Refinement


The crystal form described here was first obtained and solved for a hK-Ras:hSOS1 crystal in the absence of any inhibitor (apo structure), using the Molecular Replacement method with the program PHASER from the CCP4 program suite and the published structure of the complex of human H-Ras and hSOS1 (PDB entry 1BKD, ref.: Boriack-Sjodin P A, Margarit S M, Bar-Sagi D, Kuriyan J. The structural basis of the activation of Ras by Sos. Nature. 1998 Jul. 23; 394(6691):337-43) as search model. The data set for hK-Ras:hSOS1:compound of Example 200 was then solved by rigid body refinement using the hK-Ras:hSOS1 apo structure as starting model and the program REFMAC as part of the CCP4 program suite. A 3D model for the compound Example 200 was generated using the program Discovery Studio (company Biovia) and parameter files for crystallographic refinement and model building were generated using software PRODRG. The compound of Example 200 was manually built into the electron density maps using the program COOT, followed by several cycles of refinement (using program REFMAC) and rebuilding in COOT. The final co-complex structure features an R(work) factor of 19.8% and an R(free) factor of 24.3%. The statistics of the data collection and refinement are summarized in Table 2.
