Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The disclosure herein provides 3-[(1H-pyrazol-4-yl)oxy]pyrazin-2-amine compounds as well as their compositions and methods of use. The compounds disclosed herein modulate, e.g., inhibit, hematopoietic progenitor kinase 1 (HPK1) activity and are useful in the treatment of various diseases including cancer.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

HPK1 is a member of MAP4Ks family, which includes MAP4K1/HPK1, MAP4K2/GCK, MAP4K3/GLK, MAP4K4/HGK, MAP4K5/KHS, MAP4K6/MINK [Hu, M. C., et al., Genes Dev, 1996. 10: pp. 2251-64]. HPK1 regulates diverse functions of various immune cells and its kinase activity has been shown to be induced upon activation of T cell receptors (TCR) [Liou J., et al., Immunity, 2000. 12 (4): pp. 399-408], B cell receptors (BCR) [ILiou J., et al., Immunity, 2000. 12 (4): pp. 399-408], transforming growth factor receptor (TGF-βR) [Wang, W., et al., J Biol Chem, 1997. 272 (36): pp. 22771-5; Zhou, G., et al., J Biol Chem, 1999. 274 (19): pp. 13133-8], and Gs-coupled PGE2 receptors (EP2 and EP4) [Ikegami, R., et al., J Immunol, 2001. 166 (7): pp. 4689-96]. Overexpression of HPK1 suppresses TCR-induced activation of AP-1-dependent gene transcription in a kinase-dependent manner, suggesting that HPK1 is required to inhibit the Erk MAPK pathway [Liou J., et al., Immunity, 2000. 12 (4): pp. 399-408] and this blockage is thought to be the inhibitory mechanism that negatively regulates TCR-induced IL-2 gene transcription [S. Sawasdikosol., et al., Immunol Res, 2012. 54: pp. 262-265].


In vitro HPK1−/− T cells have a lower TCR activation threshold, proliferate robustly, produce enhanced amounts of Th1 cytokines, the HPK1−/− mice experience more severe autoimmune symptoms [S. Sawasdikosol., et al., Immunol Res, 2012. 54: pp. 262-265]. In human, HPK1 was downregulated in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of psoriatic arthritis patients or T cells of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients [Batliwalla F. M., et al., Mol Med, 2005. 11 (1-12): pp. 21-9], which indicated that attenuation of HPK1 activity may contribute to autoimmunity in patients. Furthermore, HPK1 may also control anti-tumor immunity via T cell-dependent mechanisms. In the PGE2-producing Lewis lung carcinoma tumor model, the tumors developed more slowly in HPK1 knockout mice as compared to wild-type mice [US patent application No. 2007/0087988]. HPK1 deficient T cells were more effective in controlling tumor growth and metastasis than wild-type T cells [Alzabin, S., et al., Cancer Immunol Immunother, 2010. 59 (3): pp. 419-29]. Similarly, BMDCs from HPK1 knockout mice were more efficient to mount a T cell response to eradicate Lewis lung carcinoma as compared to wild-type BMDCs [Alzabin, S., et al., J Immunol, 2009. 182 (10): pp. 6187-94]. In all, HPK1 may be a good target for enhancing antitumor immunity.


As HPK1 modulators, WO2016205942 discloses benzoimidazoles, WO2018049152A1 discloses pyrazolopyrmidines, WO2018049191A1 discloses pyrazolopyridones, and WO2008124849, WO2018049200A1 and WO2018049214A1 disclose pyrazolopyridines. WO2019238067 and WO2020103896 disclose pyrrolopyridines.


However, there is a need to provide new HPK1 kinase inhibitors useful in treating cancer.

One skilled in the art will apply techniques most likely to achieve the desired separation.


“Diastereomers” refers to stereoisomers of a compound with two or more chiral centers but which are not mirror images of one another. Diastereomeric mixtures can be separated into their individual diastereomers on the basis of their physical chemical differences by methods well known to those skilled in the art, such as by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization. Enantiomers can be separated by converting the enantiomeric mixture into a diastereomeric mixture by reaction with an appropriate optically active compound (e.g., chiral auxiliary such as a chiral alcohol or Mosher's acid chloride), separating the diastereomers and converting (e.g., hydrolyzing) the individual diastereoisomers to the corresponding pure enantiomers. Enantiomers can also be separated by use of a chiral HPLC column.


A single stereoisomer, e.g., a substantially pure enantiomer, may be obtained by resolution of the racemic mixture using a method such as formation of diastereomers using optically active resolving agents (Eliel, E. and Wilen, S. Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds. New York: John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1994; Lochmuller, C. H., et al. “Chromatographic resolution of enantiomers: Selective review.” J. Chromatogr., 113(3) (1975): pp. 283-302). Racemic mixtures of chiral compounds of the invention can be separated and isolated by any suitable method, including: (1) formation of ionic, diastereomeric salts with chiral compounds and separation by fractional crystallization or other methods, (2) formation of diastereomeric compounds with chiral derivatizing reagents, separation of the diastereomers, and conversion to the pure stereoisomers, and (3) separation of the substantially pure or enriched stereoisomers directly under chiral conditions.

Biological Activity


HPK Kinase Activity Assay at 1 mM ATP


HPK Kinase Activity Assay at 1 mM ATP


Compounds disclosed herein were tested for inhibition of HPK1 kinase (aa1-346, Life Technologies) activity in assays based on the time-resolved fluorescence-resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) methodology. The assays were carried out in 384-well low volume black plates in a reaction mixture containing HPK1 kinase (40 nM), 1 mM ATP, 0.5 μM STK1 substrate and 0-10 μM compound in buffer containing 50 mM HEPES, 0.01% BSA, 0.1 mM Orthovanadate, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, pH=7.0, 0.005% Tween-20. The kinase was incubated with the compounds disclosed herein or DMSO for 60 minutes at room temperature and the reaction was initiated by the addition of ATP and STK1 substrate. After reaction at room temperature for 120 minutes, an equal volume of stop/detection solution was added according to the manufacture's instruction (CisBio). The stop/detection solution contained STK Antibody-Cryptate and XL665-conjugated streptavidin in Detection Buffer. The TR-FRET signals (ratio of fluorescence emission at 665 nm over emission at 620 nm with excitation at 337 nm wavelength) were recorded on a PHERAstar FS plate reader (BMG Labtech). Phosphorylation of STK1 substrate led to the binding of STK Antibody-Cryptate to the biotinylated STK1 substrate, which places fluorescent donor (Eu3+ crypate) in close proximity to the accepter (Streptavidin-XL665), thus resulting in a high degree of fluorescence resonance energy transfer. The inhibition of HPK1 in presence of increasing concentrations of compounds was calculated based on the ratio of fluorescence at 665 nm to that at 620 nm. IC50 determination was performed by fitting the curve of percent inhibition versus the log of the inhibitor concentration using Dotmatics. The compounds disclosed herein showed the enzymatic activity values as in Table 1.

Cellular pSLP76 (S376) HTRF Assay


Jurkat cell line was used in this study. Cells were maintained in RPMI 1640 supplemented with heat-inactivated 10% fetal bovine serum (Thermo Fisher), 50 units/mL penicillin and streptomycin (Thermo Fisher) and kept at 37° C. in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 in air. Cells were reinstated from frozen stocks that were laid down within 30 passages from the original cells purchased. After cell starvation in the assay buffer (RPMI 1640 supplemented with heat-inactivated 0.1% fetal bovine serum) for 18 hours, cells were seeded into a round bottom 96-well plate at 150,000 cells per well density. Cells were treated with a 9-point dilution series of test compounds. The final compound concentration is from 0 to 2 μM. After 2 h compound treatment, cells were stimulated with 0.05 μg/mL anti-human CD3 (OKT3, Bioxcell) for 30 min at 37° C. Then the cells were lysed, and the pSLP76 (S376) level in the cell lysates was detected by HTRF kit (Cisbio). A total of 16 μL of cell lysate from each well of a 96-well plate was transferred to a 384-well small volume white assay plate. Lysate from each well was incubated with 2 μL of E3+-cryptate (donor) labeled anti-phospho-SLP76 and 2 μL of D2 (acceptor) labeled anti-phospho-SLP76 antibodies (Cisbio) overnight in dark at room temperature. FRET signals (655 nm) were measured using a PHERAstar FSX reader (BMG Labtech). IC50 determination was performed by fitting the curve of percent inhibition versus the log of the inhibitor concentration using Dotmatics. The compounds disclosed herein showed the cellular activity values as in Table 2.
