Patent Application
20170152264
The present invention describes a series of new compounds that display potent inhibition against Bruton's tyrosine kinase and, therefore, may provide a potential therapeutic approach to treating human cancers including B-cell lymphoma and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and multiple sclerosis.
Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) is a non-receptor cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase belonging to the Tec family of kinases, members of which also include Tec, Itk, Txk, and Bmx. Most of these kinases are predominantly expressed in hematopoietic cells and play important roles in relaying signal transductions from cell surface receptors to direct cell development, differentiation, and other functions (Berg J J et al. Annual Review of Immunology, 2005; 23:549-600). Btk is critical for B cell development, differentiation, maturation, and signaling (Mohamed A J et al. Immunological Reviews, 2009; 228:58-73). Loss-of-function mutations of Btk cause X linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) in humans and X linked immunodeficiency in mice (Thomas J D et al. Science 1993; 261:355-358). Patients with XLA have normal pre-B cell populations in their bone marrow but these cells fail to mature and enter the circulation. Therefore, these patients essentially have no circulating B cells and are incapable of producing antibodies.
BTK plays pivotal roles in B cell proliferation and activation mediated by B cell receptor (BCR). Upon BCR activation, Btk is translocated to the plasma membrane where it is phosphorylated and subsequently initiates a cascade of signaling events including activation of phospholipase Cγ2 (PLCγ2) and eventually leading to calcium mobilization and transcriptional regulation involving nuclear factor kappa B (NF κB) (Mohamed A J et al. Immunological Reviews 2009; 228:58-73). Because of the indispensable roles in BCR signaling pathway, it is believed that the kinase activity of Btk is critical for development and maintenance of a wide variety of B cell malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and a number of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) subtypes, mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), and diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (Ponader S. et al. Blood 2012, 119:1182-1189; Honigberg L A et al. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2010, 107:13075-13080). In addition, the role of B cell in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, and other immune disorders has been clinically demonstrated (Edwards J C et al. The New England Journal of Medicine, 2004, 350:2572-2581; Favas C et al. Nature Review Rheumatology, 2009, 5:711-716; Hauset S L et al. The New England Journal of Medicine, 2008, 358:676-688). Therefore, targeting Btk with small molecule inhibitors may provide therapeutic benefit for the treatment of B cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases.

This disclosure relates generally to compounds that modulate protein tyrosine kinase activity, methods of synthesizing, and using such compounds in therapeutic methods.
Any terms in the present application, unless specifically defined, will take the ordinary meanings as understood by a person of ordinary skill in the art.
As used herein, the singular forms “a”, “an”, and “the” include plural reference unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.
Unless stated otherwise, all aryl, cycloalkyl, heteroaryl, and heterocyclyl groups of the present disclosure may be substituted as described in each of their respective definitions. For example, the aryl part of an arylalkyl group, such as benzyl, may be substituted as described in the definition of the term “aryl.”
The term “alkoxy,” as used herein, refers to a C1-C10, preferably C1-C6, alkyl group attached to the parent molecular moiety through an oxygen atom. Representative examples of alkoxy group include, but are not limited to, methoxy (CH3O—), ethoxy (CH3CH2O—), and t-butoxy ((CH3)3CO—).
The term “alkyl,” as used herein, refers to a group derived from a straight or branched chain saturated hydrocarbon by removal of a hydrogen from one of the saturated carbons. The alkyl group preferably contains from one to ten carbon atoms, more preferably one to six carbon atoms. Representative examples of alkyl group include, but are not limited to, methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, and tert-butyl.
The term “aryl,” as used herein, refers to a group derived from a C6-C12, preferably C6-C10, aromatic carbocycle by removal of a hydrogen atom from an aromatic ring. The aryl group can be monocyclic, bicyclic or polycyclic. Preferred examples of aryl groups include phenyl and naphthyl.
The term “cyano,” as used herein, refers to —CN.
The term “cycloalkyl,” as used herein, refers to a group derived from a monocyclic saturated carbocycle, having preferably three to eight, more preferably three to six, carbon atoms, by removal of a hydrogen atom from the saturated carbocycle. Representative examples of cycloalkyl groups include, but are not limited to, cyclopropyl, cyclopentyl, and cyclohexyl. When a cycloalkyl group contains one or more double bond(s) in the ring, yet not aromatic, it forms a “cycloalkenyl” group.
The terms “halo” and “halogen,” as used herein, refer to F, Cl, Br, or I.
The term “haloalkoxy,” as used herein, refers to a C1-C6, preferably C1-C4, haloalkyl group attached to the parent molecular moiety through an oxygen atom.
The term “haloalkyl,” as used herein, refers to a C1-C10, preferably C1-C6, more preferably C1-C4, alkyl group substituted by at least one halogen atom. The haloalkyl group can be an alkyl group of which all hydrogen atoms are substituted by halogens. Representative examples of haloalkyl include, but are not limited to, trifluoromethyl (CF3—), 1-chloroethyl (ClCH2CH2—), and 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl (CF3CH2—).
The term “heteroaryl,” as used herein, refers to a 5- to 10-membered, monocyclic or bicyclic aromatic group comprising one or more, preferably one to three, heteroatoms independently selected from nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur in the aromatic ring(s). As is well known to those skilled in the art, heteroaryl rings have less aromatic character than their all-carbon counterparts. Thus, for the purposes of the invention, a heteroaryl group need only have some degree of aromatic character. Illustrative examples of heteroaryl groups include, but are not limited to, pyridyl, pyridazinyl, pyrimidyl, pyrazyl, triazinyl, pyrrolyl, pyrazolyl, imidazolyl, pyrimidinyl, furyl, thienyl, isoxazolyl, thiazolyl, isoxazolyl, oxazolyl, indolyl, quinolinyl, isoquinolinyl, benzisoxazolyl, benzothiazolyl, and benzothienyl.
The term “heterocyclyl,” as used herein, refers to a 3- to 10-membered monocyclic or bicyclic nonaromatic group comprising one or more, preferably one to three, heteroatoms independently selected from nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur in the nonaromatic ring(s). The heterocyclyl groups of the present disclosure can be attached to the parent molecular moiety through a carbon atom or a nitrogen atom in the group. A heterocyclyl group can be saturated or unsaturated, for example, containing one or more double bond(s) in the ring. Examples of heterocyclyl groups include, but are not limited to, morpholinyl, oxazolidinyl, piperazinyl, piperidinyl, pyrrolidinyl, tetrahydrofuryl, thiomorpholinyl, and indolinyl, or the like.
The terms “hydroxy” or “hydroxyl,” as used herein, refers to —OH.
The term “nitro,” as used herein, refers to —NO2.
The term “oxo,” as used herein, refers to “=0”.
When any group, for example, alkyl, alkenyl, “cycloalkyl,” “aryl,” “heterocyclyl,” or “heteroaryl”, is said to be “optionally substituted,” unless specifically defined, it means that the group is or is not substituted by from one to five, preferably one to three, substituents independently selected from halogen, alkyl, alkoxy, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, hydroxy, oxo, acyl, cyano, nitro, and amino group, or the like, provided that such substitution would not violate the conventional bonding principles known to a person of ordinary skill in the art. When the phrase “optionally substituted” is used before a list of groups, it means that each one of the groups listed may be optionally substituted.
The compounds of the present disclosure can exist as pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt,” as used herein, means any non-toxic salt that, upon administration to a recipient, is capable of providing the compounds or the prodrugs of a compound of this invention. The salts can be prepared during the final isolation and purification of the compounds or separately by reacting a suitable nitrogen atom with a suitable acid. Acids commonly employed to form pharmaceutically acceptable salts include inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydroiodic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, hydrogen bisulfide as well as organic acids, such as para-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid, tartaric acid, bitartaric acid, ascorbic acid, maleic acid, besylic acid, fumaric acid, gluconic acid, glucuronic acid, formic acid, glutamic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, lactic acid, oxalic acid, para-bromophenylsulfonic acid, carbonic acid, succinic acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, acetic acid acid, and related inorganic and organic acids.

The cations of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, lithium, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and aluminum, as well as nontoxic quaternary amine cations such as ammonium, tetramethylammonium, tetraethylammonium, methylamine, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, triethylamine, diethylamine, ethylamine, tributylamine, pyridine, N,N-dimethylaniline, N-methylpiperidine, and N-methylmorpholine.
The term “solvate,” as used herein, means a physical association of a compound of this invention with one or more, preferably one to three, solvent molecules, whether organic or inorganic. This physical association includes hydrogen bonding. In certain instances the solvate will be capable of isolation, for example when one or more, preferably one to three, solvent molecules are incorporated in the crystal lattice of the crystalline solid. Exemplary solvates include, but are not limited to, hydrates, ethanolates, methanolates, and isopropanolates. Methods of solvation are generally known in the art.
The term “therapeutically effective amount,” as used herein, refers to the total amount of each active component that is sufficient to show a meaningful patient benefit, e.g., a sustained reduction in viral load. When applied to an individual active ingredient, administered alone, the term refers to that ingredient alone. When applied to a combination, the term refers to combined amounts of the active ingredients that result in the therapeutic effect, whether administered in combination, serially, or simultaneously.
The term “pharmaceutically acceptable,” as used herein, refers to those compounds, materials, compositions, and/or dosage forms which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of patients without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problem or complication commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio, and are effective for their intended use.
The term “patient” includes both human and other mammals.
The term “treating” refers to: (i) preventing a disease, disorder or condition from occurring in a patient that may be predisposed to the disease, disorder, and/or condition but has not yet been diagnosed as having it; (ii) inhibiting the disease, disorder, or condition, i.e., arresting its development; and (iii) relieving the disease, disorder, or condition, i.e., causing regression of the disease, disorder, and/or condition.

Although all of the above structure formulas were drawn as certain isomers for convenience, the present invention may include all isomers, such as, tautomers, rotamers, geometric isomers, diastereomers, racemates, and enantiomers.
Tautomers are constitutional isomers of organic compounds that readily interconvert by a chemical reaction called tautomerization. This reaction commonly results in the formal migration of a hydrogen atom or proton, accompanied by a switch of a single bond and adjacent double bond. A couple of the common tautomeric pairs are: ketone-enol, lactam-lactim. An example of lactam-lactim equilibria is between A and B as shown below.
All the compounds in the present disclosure can be drawn as either form A or form B. All tautomeric forms are included in the scope of the invention. The naming of the compounds does not exclude any tautomers.
Pharmaceutical compositions or formulations of the present invention include those suitable for oral, nasal, topical (including buccal and sublingual), rectal, vaginal and/or parenteral administration. Regardless of the route of administration selected, the active ingredient(s) are formulated into pharmaceutically acceptable dosage forms by methods known to those of skill in the art.
The amount of the active ingredient(s) which will be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will vary depending upon the host being treated, the particular mode of administration and all of the other factors described above. The amount of the active ingredient(s) which will be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will generally be that amount of the active ingredient(s) which is the lowest dose effective to produce a therapeutic effect.
Methods of preparing pharmaceutical formulations or compositions include the step of bringing the active ingredient(s) into association with the carrier and, optionally, one or more accessory ingredients. In general, the formulations are prepared by uniformly mixing the active ingredient(s) into liquid carriers, or finely divided solid carriers, or both, and then, if necessary, shaping the product.
Exemplary, non-limiting examples of formulations of the disclosure suitable for oral administration may be in the form of capsules, cachets, pills, tablets, lozenges (using a flavored basis, usually sucrose and acacia or tragacanth), powders, granules, or as a solution or a suspension in an aqueous or nonaqueous liquid, or as an oil-in-water or water-in-oil liquid emulsion, or as an elixir or syrup, or as pastilles (using an inert base, such as gelatin and glycerin, or sucrose and acacia) and/or as mouth washes and the like, each containing a predetermined amount of the active ingredient(s).
In solid dosage forms of the invention for oral administration (capsules, tablets, pills, dragees, powders, granules and the like), the prodrug(s), active ingredient(s) (in their micronized form) is/are mixed with one or more pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers known to those of skill in the art. Examples of suitable aqueous and nonaqueous carriers which may be employed in the pharmaceutical compositions of the invention include water, ethanol, polyols (such as glycerol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, and the like), and suitable mixtures thereof. Proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of coating materials, such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size, and by the use of surfactants.
These compositions may also contain adjuvants such as wetting agents, emulsifying agents and dispersing agents. It may also be desirable to include isotonic agents, such as sugars, sodium chloride, and the like in the compositions. In addition, prolonged absorption of the injectable pharmaceutical form may be brought about by the inclusion of agents which delay absorption such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin.
In some cases, in order to prolong the effect of the active ingredient(s), it is desirable to slow the absorption of the drug from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This may be accomplished by the use of a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous material having poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the active ingredient(s) then depends upon its/their rate of dissolution which, in turn, may depend upon crystal size and crystalline form.
The formulations may be presented in unit-dose or multi-dose sealed containers, for example, ampoules and vials, and may be stored in a lyophilized condition requiring only the addition of the sterile liquid carrier, for example water for injection, immediately prior to use. Extemporaneous injection solutions and suspensions maybe prepared from sterile powders, granules and tablets of the type described above.
The present disclosure includes a method of modulating protein tyrosine kinase activity, comprising contacting a cell with an effective amount of any compound of formulae (I)-(V) or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
The present disclosure includes a method of treating a condition or a disease mediated by protein tyrosine kinase, comprising administering to a subject a therapeutically effective amount of any compound of formulae (I)-(V), or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, the condition or the disease is cancer or autoimmune diseases. In some embodiments, the cancer is B-cell malignancies. In some embodiments, the cancer is chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), multiple myeloma (MM), follicular lymphoma (FL), armginal zone lymphoma and waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM). In some embodiments, the autoimmune disease is rheumatoid arthritis. In some embodiments, the autoimmune disease is systemic lupus erythematosus.

The compounds and processes of the present invention will be better understood in connection with the following synthetic schemes that illustrate the methods by which the compounds of the invention may be prepared. Other reaction schemes could be readily devised by those skilled in the art.
Triene 1-1 and amine 1-2 stirred in organic solvents (e.g. EtOAc) at elevated temperature to afford pyrrole 1-3. Bromination with Br2 or other proper reagents gave bromide 1-4, which reacted with readily available bronic acid or bronic ester 1-5 under Suzuki reaction conditions to give 1-6. Ester 1-6 and hydrazine refluxed in EtOH gave key intermediate 1-7. Deprotection and Z installation yielded 1-8.
Alternatively, pyrrole 2-1 without N substitute was prepared, followed by bromination to afford bromide 2-2. The aromatic ring was installed via copper catalyzed C—N cross-coupling reactions. The resulting intermediate 2-3 was transformed to final compound 2-4 via similar sequences illustrated in Scheme 1.
Pyrazole 3-1 reacted with Br2 under basic conditions gave bromide 3-2. Y group was installed via Mitsunobu reactions. 3-3 was converted to 3-4 following similar sequences illustrated in Scheme 1.
The compounds and processes of the present invention will be better understood in connection with the following examples, which are intended as an illustration only and not limiting of the scope of the invention. Various changes and modifications to the disclosed embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art and such changes and modifications including, without limitation, relating to the chemical structures, substituents, derivatives, formulations and/or methods of the invention may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention and the scope of the appended claims.
To a solution of EtONa (160 ml, solution of 21% in EtOH, 0.49 mmol) in EtOH (110 ml) in ice bath was added diethyl oxalate (64 ml, 0.47 mol). The mixture was stirred for 30 min. A solution of 1a (16 g, 0.15 mmol) in EtOH (30 ml) was added. The resulting mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. After cooled in ice bath, the suspension was filtered. The solid was washed with small amount EtOH and then dissolved in water (380 ml). The solution was acidified by HCl to pH ˜4. Large amount solid appeared, filtered, washed with water, dried gave 1b (11.9 g) as yellow solid.
To a solution of 1b (2.3 g, 7.5 mmol) in EtOAc (120 ml) at 60° C. was added dropwise a solution of 1c (2.3 g, 11.4 mmol) in EtOAc (32 ml). The mixture was refluxed for 4 h.

Methods for biochemical and cell-based assays:
Btk Kinase Assay—
The Btk kinase assay was performed using a ADP-Glo Btk kinase assay kit purchased from Promega (Madison, Wis.). The assay was conducted according to the protocols provided in the assay kit. In brief, the enzyme reaction was carried out in the kinase reaction buffer containing Btk (2 ng/μl), ATP (1.2 μM), poly GT peptide (0.3 μM), DTT (40 nM), MnCl2 (1.4 mM), and 1×kinase buffer (included in the kit) in the presence or absence of the tested articles at various concentrations in 384-well plate at room temperature (22±1° C.) for 60 minutes. The final reaction volume for each reaction was 10 μl. Then, 4 μl of ADP-Glo reagent (included in the kit) was added into the reaction and the plate was further incubated for another 40 minutes to terminate the reaction and deplete the remaining ATP. Finally, 10 μl of the kinase detection reagent was added into each reaction to simultaneously convert ADP to ATP and allow the newly synthesized ATP to be measured by a plate-reading luminometer (Victor X5 2030 multilabel reader, PerkinElmer). IC50 value was calculated using appropriate programs in GraphPad Prism by plotting the logarithm of the concentration versus percent inhibition as compared with a vehicle (DMSO) control. The IC50 values for the example compounds are shown in Table 4.
Cell Proliferation Assay:
TMD-8 and SU-DHL-1 cells were maintained at 37° C. in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO2 in the recommended medium and serum concentrations. For cell proliferation assay, cells were seeded in 96-well pates at a density of 5,000 to 10,000 cells per well and cultured overnight at 37° C. in recommended medium supplemented with 5-10% FBS. On the next day, the test articles at various concentrations or vehicle control (0.5% DMSO) were added into cell culture. After 5-day treatment, the growth of cells was assayed by the CellTiter-Glo® Luminestceaent Cell Viability Assay (Promega). IC50 values were calculated using GraphPad Prism by plotting the logarithm of the concentration versus percent inhibition of cell growth as compared with the vehicle control. The IC50 values for the example compounds are shown in Table 4.
Pharmacokinetic Tests:
The tested articles were given to Sprague-Dawley rats or Beagle dogs by intravenous and oral administration. Plasma samples were prepared from blood samples which were collected at various time points. The plasma concentrations of the tested articles were determined by specific LC-MS/MS analytical methods. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated with WinNonlin®. The pharmacokinetic test results for the example compounds are shown in Table 5 (rat) and Table 6 (dog) below.
In Vivo Efficacy Study:
The in vivo antitumor activity was assessed with TMD-8 xenograft model. In brief, TMD-8 cells were implanted into NOD-SCID nude mice and allowed to grow to the designated size (c.a. 100-200 mm3) before treatment. The tested articles were given orally at various dose levels once daily (QD) or twice a day (BID) for 14 consecutive days. Tumor and body weight were measured during the experiments, and tumor volumes were estimated from the formula [length/2]×[width2]. Established tumors in each animal were individually normalized to their size at the start of the experiment, and the data were calculated as the change in tumor volume relative to the day 0 volume by the use of the relative tumor volume (RTV) formula, RTV=TVx/TV0, where TVx is the tumor volume on any day and TV0 is the tumor volume at the initiation of dosing. Significant suppression of tumor growth was observed with examples 58 (98% tumor growth inhibition rate) and 93(80% tumor growth inhibition rate).
