Benzoxazines and derivatives thereof as therapeutic agents

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Phosphoinositide-3-kinases (PI3Ks) are a family of lipid kinases that phosphorylate phosphoinositols on the 3′-OH to generate PI3P (phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate), PI-3,4-P2 and PI3,4,5-P3. One class of PI3Ks are stimulated by growth factors (Katso et al. Annu. Rev. Cell Dev. Biol. 2001;14:615-675) and include PI3Kα, PI3Kβ, and PI3Kδ (Vanhaesebroeck et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., U.S.A., 1997;94:4330-4335; Katso et al., 2001). A separate class of PI3Ks are activated by G-protein coupled receptors and include P13Kγ. The growth-factor stimulated PI3Ks (e.g., PI3Kα), have been implicated in cellular proliferation and cancer (reviewed in Katso et al., 2001; and Vivanco and Sawyers Nature Reviews, 2002;2:489-501). PI3Kγ has been demonstrated to be involved in signaling cascades. For example, PI3Kγ is activated in response to ligands such as C5a, fMLP, ADP, and IL-8. In addition, PI3Kγ has been implicated in immune diseases (Hirsch et al. Science 2000;287:1049-1053). PI3Kγ null macrophages show a reduced chemotactic response and a reduced ability to fight inflammation (Hirsch et al. 2000). Furthermore, PI3Kγ has also been implicated in thrombolytic diseases (e.g., thromboembolism, ischemic diseases, heart attacks, and stroke) (Hirsch et al. FASEB J. 2000;15(11):2019-2021; and Hirsch et al. FASEB J., Jul. 9, 2001;10.1096/fj.00-080fje (cited herein as Hirsch et al., 2001).

[0003] Inhibitors of members of the PI3Ks are being developed for the treatment of human disease (see e.g., WO 01/81346; WO 01/53266; and WO 01/83456). Therefore, there is a need in the art for compounds that can inhibit PI3Ks for use as pharmaceutical agents.

All of these forms, including (R), (S), epimers, diastereomers, cis, trans, syn, anti, (E), (Z), tautomers, and mixtures thereof, are contemplated in the compounds of the present invention.

[0116] The compounds to be used in the present invention can exist in unsolvated forms as well as solvated forms, including hydrated forms.

[0117] The compounds of the present invention (e.g., compounds of Formula I) are capable of further forming both pharmaceutically acceptable salts, including but not limited to acid addition and/or base salts.

[0122] “Cancer cells,” “transformed” cells, or “transformation” in tissue culture, refers to spontaneous or induced phenotypic changes that do not necessarily involve the uptake of new genetic material. Although transformation can arise from infection with a transforming virus and incorporation of new genomic DNA, or uptake of exogenous DNA, it can also arise spontaneously or following exposure to a carcinogen, thereby mutating an endogenous gene. Transformation is associated with phenotypic changes, such as immortalization of cells, aberrant growth control, and/or malignancy (see, Freshney, Culture of Animal Cells: A Manual of Basic Technique, 4th ed. Wiley-Liss, Inc., 2000).

[0129] II. Preparation of Compounds

[0130] Compounds of the present invention (e.g., compounds of Formula I) can be prepared by applying synthetic methodology known in the art and synthetic methodology outlined in the schemes set forth below.

[0131] In Scheme 1, an appropriately substituted BOC protected-bromo-aminophenol (e.g., 4-bromo-2-aminophenol) or BOC-protected bromo-amino-pyridin-ol (e.g., 5-bromo-3-amino-pyridin-2-ol) 2 (e.g., 4-bromo-N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-2-aminophenol) is reacted with a dihalogenated straight or branched chain alkane 3 (Xa-Q-E-D-Xb) to yield 4 (see e.g., Buon et al. (2000) Tetrahedron 56: 605-614). Xa and Xb are independently selected from Cl, I, F, and Br. Examples of 7 include, but are not limited to, 1,3-dibromoethane and 1,3-dibromopropane. The reaction is carried out in the presence of a non-nucleophilic organic base (e.g., triethylamine) or an inorganic base (e.g., Na2CO3, K2CO3, NaH, CsCO3, etc.), optionally in the presence of a phase transfer reagent (e.g., benzyl triethylammonium chloride) in a solvent such as 3-pentanone. Compounds of formula 2 can be prepared from an appropriately substituted bromo-aminophenol or bromo-amino-pyridin-ol using procedures such as those described in Buon et al. (2000) Tetrahedron 56: 605-614. Those of skill in the art will recognized that a variety of amine protecting groups in addition to BOC (t-butyl-O—C(O)—) can be used in Scheme 1 (see e.g., Greene and Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 2nd ed., Chapter 7 (John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1991)).

[0132] The compound 4 is then further reacted with an alkyl lithium reagent (e.g., t-butyl-Li, sec-butyl-Li, etc.) at a temperature from about −100° C. to about 0° C. (e.g., −78° C.) in an aprotic solvent (e.g., hexanes, THF (tetrahydrofuran), ether, etc.) to allow a bromine-lithium exchange to yield 6 in situ. The compound 6 is then reacted with a dialkylformamide such as DMF (dimethylformamide) to give 8.

[0133] Alternatively, 2 can be reacted with a monohalogenated alkyl alcohol 21 (e.g., 2-bromo-propan-1-ol) as illustrated in Scheme 2 under Mitsunobu conditions (e.g., PPh3 (triphenylphosphine) and DEAD (diethyl azodicarboxylate) in a solvent such as dichloromethane to arrive at 22. Examples of 21 include straight-chain alkyl alcohols (e.g., HO-Q-E-D-Xn, 2-bromo-ethanol, etc.) and branched-chain alkyl alcohols (e.g., HO-Q-E-CH(CH3)-Xn, 2-bromo-propan-1-ol, etc). Xn is selected from Cl, I, F, and Br. Compound 22 is then cyclized using conditions such as those described above in Scheme 1 for the condensation and cyclization of 2 with 3 to give 4.

[0134] In Scheme 3, an appropriately substituted dibromo-nitro-benzene (e.g., 1,4-dibromo-2-nitro-benzene) or dibromo-nitro-pyridine (e.g., 2,5-dibromo-3-nitro-pyridine) 30 is reacted with an monohalogenated alkyl thiol 31 (HS-Q-E-D-Xg), such as 2-chloro-ethanethiol, and potassium carbonate in acetone to form 32 (e.g., 4-bromo-1-(2-chloro-ethylsulfanyl)-2-nitro-benzene). Xg is Cl, Br, I, or F.

[0135] The nitro group of 32 is then reduced to an amine by a reducing agent such as borane, zinc metal in acid, dithionate, tin metal in acid, or with hydrogen gas at a suitable pressure (e.g., 69 psi) and a catalyst (e.g., Raney Nickel). The amine is then protected as a BOC (t-butyl-O—C(O)—) derivative with a reagent such as di-tert-butyl-dicarbonate to give 34 (e.g., 4-bromo-N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-2-aminophenol). The compound 34 is then reacted with an inorganic base (e.g., potassium carbonate) in a solvent such as acetone to provide 36. The compound 36 is further reacted as in Scheme 1 with an alkyl lithium reagent followed by a dialkylformamide to yield 38.

[0136] In Scheme 4,40, an appropriately substituted 4-bromo-2-nitro-phenylamine or 5-bromo-3-nitro-pyridin-2-ylamine, is reacted with an dihalogenated straight or branched chain alkane 41 (Xh-Q-E-D-Xj), such as 1,3-dibromoethane, in the presence of potassium carbonate in acetone to form 42 (e.g., 4-bromo-1-(2-chloro-ethylsulfanyl)-2-nitro-benzene). The reaction can also be carried out using the reaction conditions of Scheme 1 for the transformation of 2 to 4. Xg is Cl, Br, I, or F.

[0137] The nitro group of 42 is then reduced to an amine and protected with a BOC group in a fashion similar to Scheme 3 to yield 44. 44 is then reacted with an inorganic base as in Scheme 3 to provide 46. 46 is then treated with an alkyl lithium reagent followed by a dialkylformamide to yield 48 as in Scheme 1.

[0138] In Scheme 5, a route for the synthesis of a 4H-benzo[1,4]oxazine 54 is depicted. The compound 50, in dry carbon tetrachloride, is first treated with a brominating agent such as N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) and a catalytic amount of benzoyl peroxide (Bz2O2) using methods such as those described in Buon et al. (2000) Tetrahedron 56: 605-614. The resulting reaction product is then treated with sodium iodide (NaI) in acetone as described in Buon et al. (2000) Tetrahedron 56: 605-614 to obtain 52. 52 is then treated with an alkyl lithium reagent followed by a dialkylformamide as in Scheme 1 to provide 54.

[0139] As set out in Scheme 6, the BOC group of 58 (e.g., 8, 38, 46, 54, etc.) is removed with acid (e.g., TFA (trifluoroacetic acid), HCl, HBr, etc.) to give the amine 60. Compounds such as 60 can then be reacted with an acylhalide, (e.g., R6-L-C(O)-Xc, where Xc is Br, I, F, or Cl) to form 62 (e.g., 5-[4-(1-phenyl-methanoyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[1,4]oxazine-6-ylmethylene]-2-thioxo-thiazolidin-4-one). Examples of acylhalides include, but are not limited to, benzoyl chloride, furan-2-carbonyl chloride, cyclohexanecarbonyl chloride, 4-methanesulfonyl-benzoyl chloride, isonicotinoyl chloride, and nicotinoyl chloride. Also, sulfonyl halides (e.g., benzenesulfonyl chloride) can be reacted to with 60 to form the corresponding sulfonyl benzoxazine derivative 68:

[0140] Alternatively, 60 can be reacted with an isocyanate (e.g., R6-L-N═C═O) or with an isothiocyanate (e.g., R6-L-N═C═S) to form 66 (e.g., 6-(4-Oxo-2-thioxo-thiazolidin-5-ylidenemethyl)-2,3-dihydro-benzo[1,4]oxazine-4-carboxylic acid (3,4-dimethoxy-phenyl)-amide). Examples of isocyanates that can be used in this reaction include, but are not limited to, phenyl isocyanate (isocyanato-benzene), 4-isocyanato-1,2-dimethoxy-benzene, 1,3-dichloro-5-isocyanato-benzene, 1-chloro-4-isocyanato-benzene, 1,2-dichloro-4-isocyanato-benzene, 1,3-dimethyl-5-isocyanato-benzene, and 1-chloro-3-isocyanato-benzene.

[0141] In addition, the carbamate 64 (e.g., 6-(4-Oxo-2-thioxo-thiazolidin-5-ylidenemethyl)-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzoxazine-4-carboxylic acid phenyl ester) can be provided by reacting a haloformate (e.g., R6-L-O—C(O)—Xd, where Xd is Br, I, F, or Cl) with 60. In certain embodiments, chloroformates are preferred.

[0153] III. Evaluation of Compounds

[0154] Compounds of the present invention (e.g., compounds of Formula I and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof) can be assayed for their ability to inhibit a PI3K. Examples of these assays are set out below and include in vitro and in vivo assays of PI3K activity.

[0155] In certain embodiments of the present invention are compounds that selectively inhibit one or more PI3Ks as compared to one or more enzymes including, but not limited to, a cyclic nucleotide dependent protein kinase, PDGF, a tyrosine kinase, a MAP kinase, a MAP kinase kinase, a MEKK, a cyclin-dependent protein kinase. In other embodiments of the invention are compounds that selectively inhibit one PI3K as compared to another PI3K. For example, in certain embodiments, compounds of the present invention display the ability to selectively inhibit PI3Kγ as compared to PI3Kα or PI3Kβ. A compound selectively inhibits a first enzyme as compared to a second enzyme, when the IC50 of the compound towards the first enzyme is less than the IC50 of the compound towards the second compound. The IC50 can be measured, for example, in an in vitro PI3K assay.

[0156] In presently preferred embodiments, compounds of the present invention can be assessed for their ability to inhibit PI3Kactivity in an in vitro or an in vivo assay (see below).

[0157] PI3K assays are carried out in the presence or absence of a PI3K inhibitory compound, and the amount of enzyme activity is compared for a determination of inhibitory activity of the PI3K inhibitory compound.

[0158] Samples that do not contain a PI3K inhibitory compound are assigned a relative PI3K activity value of 100. Inhibition of PI3K activity is achieved when the PI3K activity in the presence of a PI3K inhibitory compound is less than the control sample (i.e., no inhibitory compound). The IC50 of a compound is the concentration of compound that exhibits 50% of the control sample activity. In certain embodiments, compounds of the present invention have an IC50 of less than about 100 μM. In other embodiments, compounds of the present invention have an IC50 of about 1 μM or less. In still other embodiments, compounds of the present invention have an IC50 of about 200 nM or less.

[0159] PI3Kγ assays have been described in the art (see e.g., Leopoldt et al. J. Biol. Chem., 1998;273:7024-7029). Typically, a sample containing a complex of p101 and 110γ protein are combined with Gβ and Gγ proteins (e.g., G protein β1/γ2 subunits). Radiolabeled ATP (e.g., γ-32P-ATP) is then added to this mixture. The lipid substrates are formed by creating PIP2 containing lipid micelles. The reactions are then started by adding the lipid and enzyme mixtures and are stopped with the addition of H3PO4. The lipid products are then transferred to a glass fiber filter plate, and washed with H3PO4 several times. The presence of radioactive lipid product (PIP3) can be measured using radiometric methods that are well-known in the art.

[0160] The activity of growth factor regulated PI3Ks can also be measured using a lipid kinase assay. For example, PI3Kα can be assayed using samples that contain a regulatory and a catalytic subunit. An activating peptide (e.g., pY peptide, SynPep Corp.) is added to the sample with radiolabeled ATP. PIP2 containing lipid micelles are then added to the sample to start the reaction. The reactions are worked up and analyzed as described for the PI3Kγ assay just described. Assays can also be carried out using cellular extracts (Susa et al. J. Biol. Chem., 1992;267:22951-22956).

[0161] IV. Pharmaceutical Compositions

[0162] The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient and a compound of the present invention (e.g., a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof). A compound of the present invention can be formulated as a pharmaceutical composition in the form of a syrup, an elixir, a suspension, a powder, a granule, a tablet, a capsule, a lozenge, a troche, an aqueous solution, a cream, an ointment, a lotion, a gel, an emulsion, etc. Preferably, a compound of the present invention will cause a decrease in symptoms or a disease indicia associated with a PI3K-mediated disorder as measured quantitatively or qualitatively.

[0163] For preparing pharmaceutical compositions from the compounds of the present invention, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers can be either solid or liquid. Solid form preparations include powders, tablets, pills, capsules, cachets, suppositories, and dispersible granules. A solid carrier can be one or more substances which may also act as diluents, flavoring agents, binders, preservatives, tablet disintegrating agents, or an encapsulating material.

[0164] In powders, the carrier is a finely divided solid which is in a mixture with the finely divided active component. In tablets, the active component is mixed with the carrier having the necessary binding properties in suitable proportions and compacted in the shape and size desired.

[0165] The powders and tablets contain from 1% to 95% (w/w) of the active compound. In certain embodiments, the active compound ranges from 5% to 70% (w/w). Suitable carriers are magnesium carbonate, magnesium stearate, talc, sugar, lactose, pectin, dextrin, starch, gelatin, tragacanth, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, a low melting wax, cocoa butter, and the like. The term “preparation” is intended to include the formulation of the active compound with encapsulating material as a carrier providing a capsule in which the active component with or without other carriers, is surrounded by a carrier, which is thus in association with it. Similarly, cachets and lozenges are included. Tablets, powders, capsules, pills, cachets, and lozenges can be used as solid dosage forms suitable for oral administration.

[0166] For preparing suppositories, a low melting wax, such as a mixture of fatty acid glycerides or cocoa butter, is first melted and the active component is dispersed homogeneously therein, as by stirring. The molten homogeneous mixture is then poured into convenient sized molds, allowed to cool, and thereby to solidify.

[0167] Liquid form preparations include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions, for example, water or water/propylene glycol solutions. For parenteral injection, liquid preparations can be formulated in solution in aqueous polyethylene glycol solution.

[0168] Aqueous solutions suitable for oral use can be prepared by dissolving the active component in water and adding suitable colorants, flavors, stabilizers, and thickening agents as desired. Aqueous suspensions suitable for oral use can be made by dispersing the finely divided active component in water with viscous material, such as natural or synthetic gums, resins, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and other well-known suspending agents.

[0169] Also included are solid form preparations which are intended to be converted, shortly before use, to liquid form preparations for oral administration. Such liquid forms include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions. These preparations may contain, in addition to the active component, colorants, flavors, stabilizers, buffers, artificial and natural sweeteners, dispersants, thickeners, solubilizing agents, and the like.

[0170] The pharmaceutical preparation is preferably in unit dosage form. In such form the preparation is subdivided into unit doses containing appropriate quantities of the active component. The unit dosage form can be a packaged preparation, the package containing discrete quantities of preparation, such as packeted tablets, capsules, and powders in vials or ampules. Also, the unit dosage form can be a capsule, tablet, cachet, or lozenge itself, or it can be the appropriate number of any of these in packaged form.

[0171] The quantity of active component in a unit dose preparation may be varied or adjusted from 0.1 mg to 1000 mg, preferably 1.0 mg to 100 mg, or from 1% to 95% (w/w) of a unit dose, according to the particular application and the potency of the active component. The composition can, if desired, also contain other compatible therapeutic agents.

[0172] Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are determined in part by the particular composition being administered, as well as by the particular method used to administer the composition. Accordingly, there is a wide variety of suitable formulations of pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention (see, e.g., Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 20th ed., Gennaro et al. Eds., Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2000).

[0173] A compound of the present invention, alone or in combination with other suitable components, can be made into aerosol formulations (i.e., they can be “nebulized”) to be administered via inhalation. Aerosol formulations can be placed into pressurized acceptable propellants, such as dichlorodifluoromethane, propane nitrogen, and the like.

[0174] Formulations suitable for parenteral administration, such as, for example, by intravenous, intramuscular, intradermal, and subcutaneous routes, include aqueous and non-aqueous, isotonic sterile injection solutions, which can contain antioxidants, buffers, bacteriostats, and solutes that render the formulation isotonic with the blood of the intended recipient, and aqueous and nonaqueous sterile suspensions that can include suspending agents, solubilizers, thickening agents, stabilizers, and preservatives. In the practice of this invention, compositions can be administered, for example, by intravenous infusion, orally, topically, intraperitoneally, intravesically or intrathecally. The formulations of compounds can be presented in unit-dose or multi-dose sealed containers, such as ampules and vials. Injection solutions and suspensions can be prepared from sterile powders, granules, and tablets of the kind previously described.

[0175] The dose administered to a subject, in the context of the present invention should be sufficient to effect a beneficial therapeutic response in the subject over time. The dose will be determined by the efficacy of the particular compound employed and the condition of the subject, as well as the body weight or surface area of the subject to be treated. The size of the dose also will be determined by the existence, nature, and extent of any adverse side-effects that accompany the administration of a particular compound in a particular subject. In determining the effective amount of the compound to be administered in the treatment or prophylaxis of the disorder being treated, the physician can evaluate factors such as the circulating plasma levels of the compound, compound toxicities, and/or the progression of the disease, etc. In general, the dose equivalent of a compound is from about 1 μg/kg to 10 mg/kg for a typical subject. Many different administration methods are known to those of skill in the art.

[0176] For administration, compounds of the present invention can be administered at a rate determined by factors that can include, but are not limited to, the LD50 of the compound, the pharmacokinetic profile of the compound, contraindicated drugs, and the side-effects of the compound at various concentrations, as applied to the mass and overall health of the subject. Administration can be accomplished via single or divided doses.

PI3Kγ Protein Expression and Purification Protocol

[0340]

Spodtera frugiperda
cells, grown in ESF921 media, were coinfected with baculovirus expressing a glu-tagged p110 and baculovirus expressing an HA-tagged p110γ, at a 3:1 ratio of p110 baculovirus to p110γ baculovirus. Sf9 cells were grown to 1×107 total cells/mL in 10L bioreactors and harvested 48-72 hours post infection. Samples of infected cells were then tested for expression of p101/p110γ PI3 kinase by immunoprecipitation and Western Blot analysis methods (see below).

[0341] To purify PI3Kγ, 4 volumes of room temperature hypotonic lysis buffer (1 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 5 mM EGTA, 1 mM Pefabloc, 0.5 μM aprotinin, 1M leupeptin, 2 μM pepstatin, 5 μM E64, pH 8) per gram of cell paste, was poured onto frozen cell pellets with stirring, then lysed in a nitrogen “bomb” at 400 psi (599HC T316, Parr Instrument Co, Moline, Ill.). NaCl was added to 150 mM, and sodium cholate was added to 1% and mixed for another 45 minutes. The lysates were clarified by centrifugation for 25 minutes at 14,000 rpm. The lysates were then loaded over anti-glu-linked Protein-G Sepaharose beads (Covance Research Products, Richmond, Calif.) using 20 mL resin/50 g cell paste. The column was washed with 15 volumes of wash buffer (1 mM DTT, 0.2 mM EGTA, 1 mM Pefabloc, 0.5 μM aprotinin, 5 μM leupeptin, 2 μM pepstatin, 5 μM E64, 150 mM NaCl, 1% sodium cholate, pH 8). PI3Kγ was eluted with 6 column volumes of wash buffer that contain 100 μg/mL of a peptide that competes for binding of the glu tag. The column fractions with the eluted protein (determined by taking OD280 readings) were collected and dialyzed in 0.2 mM EGTA, 1 mM DTT, 1 mM Pefabloc, 5 μM leupeptin, 0.5% sodium cholate, 150 mM NaCl, and 50% glycerol, pH 8. The fractions were stored at −80° C. until further use.

G Protein Subunits Expression

[0342]

Spodtera frugiperda
cells were coinfected with baculovirus expressing a glu-tagged G protein β1 and baculovirus expressing a G protein β2 at a 1:1 ratio of glu-tagged G protein β1 baculovirus to G protein β2 baculovirus. Sf9 cells are grown in 10 L bioreactors and harvested 48-72 hours post infection. Samples of infected cells were tested for G protein β1/β2 expression by Western Blot analysis, as described below. Cell lysates were homogenized and loaded onto a column of glu-tagged beads as in Biological Example 1 and competed off the column with a glu peptide as described in Biological Example 1.

The blots were then blocked with 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 5% ovalbumin in TBST (50 mM Tris, 200 mM NaCl, 0.1% Tween 20, ph 7.4) for 1 hour at room temperature, and incubated overnight at 4° C. with primary antibody diluted 1:1000 in TBST with 0.5% BSA. The primary antibodies for the p110γ, p110α, p110β, p85α, G protein β1, and G protein γ2 subunits were purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., Santa Cruz, Calif. The p101 subunit antibodies were developed at Research Genetics, Inc., Huntsville, Ala. based on a p101 peptide antigen.

[0344] After incubation with the primary antibody, the blots were washed in TBST and incubated for 2 hours at room temperaure with goat-anti-rabbit HRP conjugate (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Hercules, Calif., product Number 170-6515), diluted 1:10,000 in TBST with 0.5% BSA. The antibodies were detected with ECL™ detection reagents (Amersham Biosciences Corp., Piscataway, N.J.) and quantified on a Kodak ISO400F scanner.

Immunoprecipitation

[0345] 100 μL of cell paste from Biological Example 1 or 2 was thawed and lysed on ice with 400 μL of hypotonic lysis buffer (25 mM tris, 1 mM DTT, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM Pefabloc, 5 μM leupeptin, 5 μM E-64 (Roche), 1% Nonidet P40, pH 7.5-8). The lysate was incubated for 2 hours at room temperature with glu-tagged beads (Covance Research Products, Cambridge, England, product Number AFC-115P). The beads were washed 3 times in wash buffer (20 mM Tris, pH 7.8-8, 150 mM NaCl2, 0.5% NP40) and the protein eluted off the beads by heating in 2 times sample buffer (Invitrogen Corporation, Carlsbad, Calif., product Number LC1676).

PI3Kγ In Vitro Kinase Assay

[0346] The inhibitory properties of the compounds in Table 1 were assayed in an in vitro PI3K assay. In a 96-well polypropylene plate, each well was spotted with 2 μL of 50 times the desired final concentration of compound in DMSO. Purified recombinant p101/p110γ protein (0.03 μg; ˜2.7 nM) and G protein β1/γ2 subunits (0.09 μg; −57.7 nM) for each reaction was combined in the assay buffer (30 mM HEPES, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EGTA, and 1 mM DTT). ATP and [γ-32P-ATP] (0.09 μCi) were added to this mixture so that the final ATP concentration in the reaction was 20 μM. Lipid micelles were formed by sonicating phosphatidylinositol-4,5-diphosphate (PIP2), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and Na-cholate in the assay buffer for 10 minutes, adding MgCL2 and incubating on ice for 20 minutes, for final concentrations of 25 μM PIP2, 300 μM PE, 0.02% Na-cholate, and 10 mM MgCl2 in the reaction. The reactions were started by adding equal volumes lipid and enzyme mixture in a total volume of 50 μL, allowed to run for 20 minutes at room temperature, and stopped with 100 μL 75 mM H3PO4. The lipid product was transferred to a glass fiber filter plate and washed with 75 mM H3PO4 several times. The presence of radioactive lipid product (PIP3) was measured by adding Wallac Optiphase mix to each well and counting in a Wallac 1450 Trilux plate reader (PerkinElmer Life Sciences Inc., Boston, Mass. 02118). The IC50 for each compound tested is reported in μM in Table 1:
