The present invention relates to compositions and methods for treating or preventing joint damage resulting from joint injury and arthritis, or for cartilage repair.
Osteoarthritis (OA) represents the most common musculoskeletal disorder. Approximately 40 million Americans are currently affected and this number is predicted to increase to 60 million within the next twenty years as a result of the aging population and an increase in life expectancy, making it the fourth leading cause of disability. OA is characterized by a slow degenerative breakdown of the joint including both the articular cartilage (containing the cells and matrix which produce lubrication and cushioning for the joint) and the subchondral bone underlying the articular cartilage. OA can be considered a consequence of various etiologic factors. For example, it can be caused by abnormal biomechanical stress or genetic or acquired abnormalities of articular cartilage or bone. Current OA therapies include pain relief with oral NSAIDs or selective cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) inhibitors, intra-articular (IA) injection with agents such as corticosteroids and hyaluronan, and surgical approaches.
Joint damage, e.g., acute joint injury, such as a meniscal or ligament tear, or an intra-articular fracture can also lead to arthritis, e.g., posttraumatic arthritis. Because articular cartilage has a limited ability to repair, even small undetectable damage can often get worse overtime and lead to OA. Current treatments for joint injury can include surgery and other invasive procedures focused on regeneration of damaged joints as well as treatment with agents to reduce pain and inflammation.
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are present in adult articular cartilage and upon isolation can be programmed in vitro to undergo differentiation to chondrocytes and other mesenchymal cell lineages, and may be used for cartilage regeneration. In part, the process is regulated by growth factors (TGFβs, BMPs), serum conditions and cell-cell contact.
WO2011/008773 describes peptide compositions and use of those compositions for treating or preventing arthritis and joint injury and for inducing differentiation of mesenchymal cells into chondrocytes. Additionally, WO2012/129562 describes small molecule compounds, compositions and use of those compositions for amelioration of arthritis and joint injury and for inducing differentiation of mesenchymal cells into chondrocytes.
Though surgical techniques, and regenerative technology have made some progress in restoration of cartilage, slowing degeneration, and improved repair of joint damage, a continued need exists for improvement of compositions and methods for effective cartilage regeneration, treatment of joint damage and amelioration or prevention of OA.
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for treating or preventing joint damage resulting from joint injury and arthritis, or for cartilage repair.

In some embodiments, the patient has arthritis or joint injury. In some embodiments, the individual does not have, but is at risk for, arthritis or joint injury. In some embodiments, the arthritis is osteoarthritis, trauma arthritis, or autoimmune arthritis.
The compounds of the present invention are also useful for inducing hyaline cartilage production, comprising contacting chondrogenic progenitor cells (CPC) with a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (1) or sub-formulae thereof, optionally in combination with a second therapeutic agent; thereby inducing hyaline cartilage production. In a non-limiting embodiment, hyaline cartilage production is induced by preventing chondrocyte hypertrophy of chondrocytic progenitor cells. In another non-limiting embodiment, hyaline cartilage production is induced by inducing differentiation of chondrogenic progenitor cells into mature chondrocytes, particularly, mature chondrocytes producing hyaline cartilage extracellular matrix.
CPCs can differentiate into different types of cells including, but not limited to, osteoblasts, hyaline chondrocytes and hypertrophic chondrocytes. Differentiation is the process by which a specialized cell type is formed from a less specialized cell type, for example, a chondrocyte from a chondrogenic progenitor. In some embodiments, the method is performed in vitro. In some embodiments, the method is performed in vivo in a mammal and the progenitor cells are present in the mammal.
Inducing chondrocyte differentiation of chondrogenic progenitor can be accomplished using any suitable amount of a compound of the present invention. In some embodiment, the compound of the present invention can be present in an amount form about 0.1 mg to about 10000 mg, e.g., 1.0 mg to 1000 mg, e.g., 10 mg to 500 mg, according to the particular application and potency of the active component. In some embodiments, the compounds of the present invention can be administered orally once daily at a dose of 1 mg/kg to about 300 mg/kg. Treatment duration can vary from a week or less to chronic treatment in severe osteoarthritis.

Proton spectra are recorded on a Bruker AVANCE II400 MHz with 5 mm QNP Cryoprobe or a Bruker AVANCE III 500 MHz with 5 mm QNP probe unless otherwise noted. Chemical shifts are reported in ppm relative to dimethyl sulfoxide (δ 2.50), chloroform (δ 7.26), methanol (δ 3.34), dichloromethane (δ 5.32), acetone (δ 2.05), or acetonitrile (δ 1.94). A small amount of the dry sample (2-5 mg) is dissolved in an appropriate deuterated solvent (0.6 mL).
ISCO flash chromatography is performed on Teledyne COMBIFLASH® system with prepacked silica RediSep® column.
SFC chiral screening is carried out on a Thar Instruments Prep Investigator system coupled to a Waters ZQ mass spectrometer. The Thar Prep Investigator system consists of:
All of the Thar components are part of the SuperPure Discovery Series line. The system flows at 2 mL/min (4 mL/min for the WhelkO-1 column) and is kept at 30 degrees C. The system back pressure is set to 125 bar. Each sample is screened through a battery of eleven 3 μm columns:
The system runs a gradient from 5% co-solvent to 50% co-solvent in 5 minutes followed by a 0.5 minute hold at 50% co-solvent, a switch back to 5% co-solvent and a 0.25 minute hold at initial conditions. In between each gradient there is a 4 minute equilibration method that flows 5% co-solvent through the next column to be screened. The typical solvents screened are MeOH, MeOH+20 mM NH3, MeOH+0.5% DEA, IPA, and IPA+20 mM NH3.
Once separation is detected using one of the gradient methods an isocratic method can be developed and, if necessary, scaled up for purification on the Thar Prep80 system.

The compounds of the present invention were evaluated in the Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) activity assay to determine the ability of the compounds to prevent chondrocyte hypertrophy in normal human articular chondrocytes (NHACs). The reagents used are listed in Table 1.
Cell Culture
Normal human articular chondrocytes (NHACs) were purchased from PromoCell (Heidelberg, Germany) and grown in Chondrocyte Growth Medium (CGM; Lonza, Walkersville, Md.).
Alkaline Phosphatase Staining and Quantitation in NHACs
NHACs were expanded in Chondrocyte Growth Medium (CGM) from Lonza until they reached a 60-80% confluency. To initiate differentiation, 7,500 cells were plated/well with indicated test compound dose in 384-well Cell Carrier Ultra plates (Perkin Elmer) with DMEM (SH30022—HyClone) containing 10% FBS (35-015-CV—Corning), 1% Pen/Strep antibiotics (SV30010—HyClone), and 1% Normocin (50 mg/mL—InvivoGen). Cells with test compounds were incubated at 37° C., 5% CO2 for 5 hours and then added human IL-1 beta (AF-200-1B—Peprotech) to each well at a final concentration of 10 ng/mL and incubated at 37° C., 5% CO2 for 12 days.
To detect the presence of hypertrophic cells, NHACs were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and Hoechst 33342 (Invitrogen) dye for 30 minutes, rinsed in PBS, then stained with Fast Blue RR Salt (F0500—Sigma) with Naphthol AS-MX Phosphate Alkaline Solution, 0.25% (855—Sigma-Aldrich). Once cells were observed to turn blue, after approximately 3 hours at 37° C., they were washed with PBS three times.
The staining was imaged by fluoresecent microscopy, using the 561 nm wavelength, and/or quantified by high content imaging with the ImageXpress Confocal (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, Calif.). Data analyses were performed with a customized multiwavelength cell-scoring application The activity of the compounds of the present invention in the ALP assay is summarized in Table 2.
