The invention provides compounds that inhibit Raf kinases, and are accordingly useful for treating certain disorders associated with excessive Raf kinase activity, including cell proliferation disorders such as cancers. The invention further provides pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds and methods of using these compounds to treat conditions including cancer.
Protein Kinases are involved in very complex signaling cascades that regulate most cellular functions, including cell survival and proliferation. These signaling pathways have been heavily studied, particularly in the context of disorders caused by dysregulated cellular function, such as cancer. The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade has been studied extensively, for example, and kinases in this pathway (e.g., RAS, RAF, MEK, and ERK) have been exploited as target sites for drug discovery. Mutated B-Raf is found in a significant fraction of malignancies (over 30% of all tumors and 40% of melanomas), and several drug candidates that inhibit a common B-Raf mutant (V600E, an activating mutation found in many cancers, particularly in cutaneous malignant melanoma, thyroid cancer, colorectal cancer, and ovarian cancer) have been reported, including GDC-0879, PLX4032, and PLX4720, while other inhibitors targeting C-Raf or B-Raf (or both) include sorafenib, XL281 RAF265, and BAY43-9006. These examples demonstrate that compounds that inhibit B-Raf or C-Raf are useful to treat various cancers.
The MAPK signaling cascade includes RAS, Raf, MEK and ERK kinases, each of which is actually a group of related proteins. Because they function collectively as a signal transduction cascade, the number of distinct kinases and their varying substrate specificities create a complex and highly branched pathway. Roskoski, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Comm., 399, 313-17 (2010). Raf, for example, consists of monomers referred to as A-Raf, B-Raf, and C-Raf (also called Raf-1), each of which functions primarily as a dimer. The RAF complex includes heterodimers as well as homodimers of these three species, bringing the total number of dimeric species in the Raf group to six, and each of these has a number of sites where phosphorylation at serine, threonine or tyrosine can cause either activation or inhibition. Matallanas, et al., Genes and Cancer 2:232 (2011, published online 10 May 2011). Due to the complexity of the pathway and its regulation, it has been reported that inhibitors of B-Raf can cause paradoxical activation of the pathway, apparently due to conformational effects on the kinase domain of Raf that affect dimerization, membrane localization, and interaction with RAS-GTP. Hatzivassiliou, et al., Nature, vol. 464, 431-36 (18 Mar. 2010). In particular, ATP-competitive inhibitors can exhibit opposing effects on the signaling pathway, as either inhibitors or activators, depending on the cellular context. As a result, B-Raf inhibitors effective against tumors having the activating B-Raf mutation V600E may not be as effective as expected in tumors having wild-type B-Raf or KRas mutations. Id.
The present invention provides novel inhibitors of Raf kinases, including A-Raf, B-Raf and/or C-Raf, and use of these compounds to treat disorders associated with excessive or undesired levels of Raf activity, such as certain cancers. The compounds of the invention minimize undesired pathway activation effects, and thus can be more efficacious and more predictable in vivo than the B-Raf inhibitors that cause paradoxical pathway activation even when they have similar in vitro potency. The compounds are thus suited for treatment of BRaf wild-type and KRas mutant tumors, as well as B-Raf V600E mutant tumors.

As used herein, the term “an optical isomer” or “a stereoisomer” refers to any of the various stereo isomeric configurations which may exist for a given compound of the present invention and includes geometric isomers. It is understood that a substituent may be attached at a chiral center of a carbon atom. The term “chiral” refers to molecules which have the property of non-superimposability on their mirror image partner, while the term “achiral” refers to molecules which are superimposable on their mirror image partner. Therefore, the invention includes enantiomers, diastereomers or racemates of the compound. “Enantiomers” are a pair of stereoisomers that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other. A 1:1 mixture of a pair of enantiomers is a “racemic” mixture. The term is used to designate a racemic mixture where appropriate. “Diastereoisomers” are stereoisomers that have at least two asymmetric atoms, but which are not mirror-images of each other. The absolute stereochemistry is specified according to the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog ‘R—S’ system. When a compound is a pure enantiomer, the stereochemistry at each chiral carbon may be specified by either R or S. Resolved compounds whose absolute configuration is unknown can be designated (+) or (−) depending on the direction (dextro- or levorotatory) which they rotate plane polarized light at the wavelength of the sodium D line. Certain compounds described herein contain one or more asymmetric centers or axes and may thus give rise to enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomeric forms that may be defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (R)- or (S)-.
Depending on the choice of the starting materials and synthesis procedures, the compounds can be present in the form of one of the possible isomers or as mixtures thereof, for example as pure optical isomers, or as isomer mixtures, such as racemates and diastereoisomer mixtures, depending on the number of asymmetric carbon atoms. The present invention is meant to include all such possible isomers, including racemic mixtures, diasteriomeric mixtures and optically pure forms. Optically active (R)- and (S)-isomers may be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques. If the compound contains a double bond, the substituent may be E or Z configuration unless specified. If the compound contains a disubstituted cycloalkyl, the cycloalkyl substituent may have a cis- or trans-configuration, unless otherwise specified. All tautomeric forms are also intended to be included.
In many cases, the compounds of the present invention are capable of forming acid and/or base salts by virtue of the presence of amino and/or carboxyl groups or groups similar thereto. As used herein, the terms “salt” or “salts” refers to an acid addition or base addition salt of a compound of the invention. “Salts” include in particular “pharmaceutical acceptable salts”. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salts” refers to salts that retain the biological effectiveness and properties of the compounds of this invention and, which typically are not biologically or otherwise undesirable.
Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts can be formed with inorganic acids and organic acids, e.g., acetate, aspartate, benzoate, besylate, bromide/hydrobromide, bicarbonate/carbonate, bisulfate/sulfate, camphorsulfonate, chloride/hydrochloride, chlorotheophyllonate, citrate, ethandisulfonate, fumarate, gluceptate, gluconate, glucuronate, hippurate, hydroiodide/iodide, isethionate, lactate, lactobionate, laurylsulfate, malate, maleate, malonate, mandelate, mesylate, methylsulphate, naphthoate, napsylate, nicotinate, nitrate, octadecanoate, oleate, oxalate, palmitate, pamoate, phosphate/hydrogen phosphate/dihydrogen phosphate, polygalacturonate, propionate, stearate, succinate, sulfosalicylate, tartrate, tosylate and trifluoroacetate salts. Lists of additional suitable salts can be found, e.g., in “Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences”, 20th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., (1985); and in “Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection, and Use” by Stahl and Wermuth (Wiley-VCH, Weinheim, Germany, 2002).
Inorganic acids from which salts can be derived include, for example, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, and the like.
Organic acids from which salts can be derived include, for example, acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, toluenesulfonic acid, sulfosalicylic acid, and the like.
Pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts can be formed with inorganic or organic bases and can have inorganic or organic counterions.
Inorganic counterions for such base salts include, for example, ammonium salts and metals from columns I to XII of the periodic table. In certain embodiments, the counterion is selected from sodium, potassium, ammonium, alkylammonium having one to four C1-C4 alkyl groups, calcium, magnesium, iron, silver, zinc, and copper; particularly suitable salts include ammonium, potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium salts.
Organic bases from which salts can be derived include, for example, primary, secondary, and tertiary amines, substituted amines including naturally occurring substituted amines, cyclic amines, basic ion exchange resins, and the like. Suitable organic amines include isopropylamine, benzathine, cholinate, diethanolamine, diethylamine, lysine, meglumine, piperazine and tromethamine.
The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the present invention can be synthesized from a basic or acidic moiety, by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting free acid forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base (such as Na, Ca, Mg, or K hydroxide, carbonate, bicarbonate or the like), or by reacting free base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate acid. Such reactions are typically carried out in water or in an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two. Generally, use of non-aqueous media like ether, ethyl acetate, tetrahydrofuran, toluene, chloroform, dichloromethane, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile is desirable, where practicable.
Any formula given herein is also intended to represent unlabeled forms (i.e., compounds wherein all atoms are present at natural isotopic abundances, and not isotopically enriched) as well as isotopically enriched or labeled forms of the compounds. Isotopically enriched or labeled compounds have structures depicted by the formulas given herein except that at least one atom of the compound is replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or the atomic mass distribution that occurs naturally. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into enriched or labeled compounds of the invention include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, fluorine, and chlorine, such as 2H, 3H, 11C, 13C, 14C, 15N, 18F 31P, 32P, 35S, 36Cl, 125I respectively. The invention includes various isotopically labeled compounds as defined herein, for example those in which radioactive isotopes, such as 3H and 14C, or those in which non-radioactive isotopes, such as 2H and 13C, are present at levels significantly above the natural abundance for these isotopes. These isotopically labeled compounds are useful in metabolic studies (with 14C), reaction kinetic studies (with, for example 2H or 3H), detection or imaging techniques, such as positron emission tomography (PET) or single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) including drug or substrate tissue distribution assays, or in radioactive treatment of patients. In particular, an 18F or labeled compound may be particularly desirable for PET or SPECT studies. Isotopically-labeled compounds of formula (I) can generally be prepared by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art or by processes analogous to those described in the accompanying Examples and Preparations using an appropriate isotopically-labeled reagents in place of the non-labeled reagent previously employed.
Further, substitution with heavier isotopes, particularly deuterium (i.e., 2H or D) may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements or an improvement in therapeutic index. It is understood that deuterium in this context is regarded as a substituent of a compound of the formula (I). The concentration of such a heavier isotope, specifically deuterium, may be defined by the isotopic enrichment factor. The term “isotopic enrichment factor” as used herein means the ratio between the isotopic abundance and the natural abundance of a specified isotope. If a substituent in a compound of this invention is denoted deuterium, such compound has an isotopic enrichment factor for each designated deuterium atom of at least 3500 (52.5% deuterium incorporation at each designated deuterium atom), at least 4000 (60% deuterium incorporation), at least 4500 (67.5% deuterium incorporation), at least 5000 (75% deuterium incorporation), at least 5500 (82.5% deuterium incorporation), at least 6000 (90% deuterium incorporation), at least 6333.3 (95% deuterium incorporation), at least 6466.7 (97% deuterium incorporation), at least 6600 (99% deuterium incorporation), or at least 6633.3 (99.5% deuterium incorporation).
Pharmaceutically acceptable solvates in accordance with the invention include those wherein the solvent of crystallization may be isotopically substituted, e.g. D2O, d6-acetone, d6-DMSO, as well as solvates with non-enriched solvents.
Compounds of the invention, i.e. compounds of formula (I) that contain groups capable of acting as donors and/or acceptors for hydrogen bonds may be capable of forming co-crystals with suitable co-crystal formers. These co-crystals may be prepared from compounds of formula (I) by known co-crystal forming procedures. Such procedures include grinding, heating, co-subliming, co-melting, or contacting in solution compounds of formula (I) with the co-crystal former under crystallization conditions and isolating co-crystals thereby formed. Suitable co-crystal formers include those described in WO 2004/078163. Hence the invention further provides co-crystals comprising a compound of formula (I).
As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” includes any and all solvents, dispersion media, coatings, surfactants, antioxidants, preservatives (e.g., antibacterial agents, antifungal agents), isotonic agents, absorption delaying agents, salts, preservatives, drug stabilizers, binders, excipients, disintegration agents, lubricants, sweetening agents, flavoring agents, dyes, and the like and combinations thereof, as would be known to those skilled in the art (see, for example, Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th Ed. Mack Printing Company, 1990, pp. 1289-1329). Except insofar as any conventional carrier is incompatible with the active ingredient, its use in the therapeutic or pharmaceutical compositions is contemplated.
The term “a therapeutically effective amount” of a compound of the present invention refers to an amount of the compound of the present invention that will elicit the biological or medical response of a subject, for example, reduction or inhibition of an enzyme or a protein activity, or ameliorate symptoms, alleviate conditions, slow or delay disease progression, or prevent a disease, etc. In one non-limiting embodiment, the term “a therapeutically effective amount” refers to the amount of the compound of the present invention that, when administered to a subject, is effective to (1) at least partially alleviate, inhibit, prevent and/or ameliorate a condition, or a disorder or a disease mediated by a Raf kinase such as B-Raf or C-Raf, or associated with activity of a kinase such as B-Raf or C-Raf, or (2) reduce or inhibit the activity of a kinase such as B-Raf or C-Raf in vivo.
In another non-limiting embodiment, the term “a therapeutically effective amount” refers to the amount of the compound of the present invention that, when administered to a cell, or a tissue, or a non-cellular biological material, or a medium, is effective to at least partially reduce or inhibit the activity of a kinase such as B-Raf or C-Raf, or at least partially reduce or alleviate a symptom or a condition associated with excessive Raf kinase activity.
As used herein, the term “subject” refers to an animal. Typically the animal is a mammal. A subject also refers to for example, primates (e.g., humans, male or female), cows, sheep, goats, horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, mice, fish, birds and the like. In certain embodiments, the subject is a primate. In specific embodiments, the subject is a human.
As used herein, the term “inhibit”, “inhibition” or “inhibiting” refers to the reduction or suppression of a given condition, symptom, or disorder, or disease, or a significant decrease in the baseline activity of a biological activity or process.
As used herein, the term “treat”, “treating” or “treatment” of any disease or disorder refers in one embodiment, to ameliorating the disease or disorder (i.e., slowing or arresting or reducing the development of the disease or at least one of the clinical symptoms thereof). In another embodiment “treat”, “treating” or “treatment” refers to alleviating or ameliorating at least one physical parameter including those which may not be discernible by the patient. In yet another embodiment, “treat”, “treating” or “treatment” refers to modulating the disease or disorder, either physically, (e.g., stabilization of a discernible symptom), physiologically, (e.g., stabilization of a physical parameter), or both. In yet another embodiment, “treat”, “treating” or “treatment” refers to preventing or delaying the development or progression of the disease or disorder.
As used herein, a subject is “in need of” a treatment if such subject would benefit biologically, medically or in quality of life from such treatment.
As used herein, the term “a,” “an,” “the” and similar terms used in the context of the present invention (especially in the context of the claims) are to be construed to cover both the singular and plural unless otherwise indicated herein or clearly contradicted by the context.
All methods described herein can be performed in any suitable order unless otherwise indicated herein or otherwise clearly contradicted by context. The use of any and all examples, or exemplary language (e.g. “such as”) provided herein is intended merely to better illuminate the invention and does not pose a limitation on the scope of the invention otherwise claimed.
Any asymmetric atom (e.g., carbon or the like) of the compound(s) of the present invention can be present in racemic or enantiomerically enriched, for example the (R)-, (S)- or (R,S)-configuration. In certain embodiments, each asymmetric atom has at least 50% enantiomeric excess, at least 60% enantiomeric excess, at least 70% enantiomeric excess, at least 80% enantiomeric excess, at least 90% enantiomeric excess, at least 95% enantiomeric excess, or at least 99% enantiomeric excess of either the (R)- or (S)-configuration; i.e., for optically active compounds, it is often preferred to use one enantiomer to the substantial exclusion of the other enantiomer. Substituents at atoms with unsaturated double bonds may, if possible, be present in cis- (Z)- or trans- (E)- form.
Accordingly, as used herein a compound of the present invention can be in the form of one of the possible isomers, rotamers, atropisomers, tautomers or mixtures thereof, for example, as substantially pure geometric (cis or trans) isomers, diastereomers, optical isomers (antipodes), racemates or mixtures thereof. ‘Substantially pure’ or ‘substantially free of other isomers’ as used herein means the product contains less than 5%, and preferably less than 2%, of other isomers relative to the amount of the preferred isomer, by weight.
Any resulting mixtures of isomers can be separated on the basis of the physicochemical differences of the constituents, into the pure or substantially pure geometric or optical isomers, diastereomers, racemates, for example, by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization.
Any resulting racemates of final products or intermediates can be resolved into the optical antipodes by known methods, e.g., by separation of the diastereomeric salts thereof, obtained with an optically active acid or base, and liberating the optically active acidic or basic compound. In particular, a basic moiety may thus be employed to resolve the compounds of the present invention into their optical antipodes, e.g., by fractional crystallization of a salt formed with an optically active acid, e.g., tartaric acid, dibenzoyl tartaric acid, diacetyl tartaric acid, di-O,O′-p-toluoyl tartaric acid, mandelic acid, malic acid or camphor-10-sulfonic acid. Racemic products can also be resolved by chiral chromatography, e.g., high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a chiral adsorbent.
Furthermore, the compounds of the present invention, including their salts, can also be obtained in the form of their hydrates, or include other solvents used for their crystallization. The compounds of the present invention may inherently or by design form solvates with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents (including water); therefore, it is intended that the invention embrace both solvated and unsolvated forms. The term “solvate” refers to a molecular complex of a compound of the present invention (including pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof) with one or more solvent molecules. Such solvent molecules are those commonly used in the pharmaceutical art, which are known to be innocuous to the recipient, e.g., water, ethanol, and the like. The term “hydrate” refers to the complex where the solvent molecule is water.
The compounds of the present invention, including salts, hydrates and solvates thereof, may inherently or by design form polymorphs.
In another aspect, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of the present invention, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The pharmaceutical composition can be formulated for particular routes of administration such as oral administration, parenteral administration, and rectal administration, and the like. In addition, the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can be made up in a solid form (including without limitation capsules, tablets, pills, granules, powders or suppositories), or in a liquid form (including without limitation solutions, suspensions or emulsions). The pharmaceutical compositions can be subjected to conventional pharmaceutical operations such as sterilization and/or can contain conventional inert diluents, lubricating agents, or buffering agents, as well as adjuvants, such as preservatives, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifiers and buffers, etc.
Typically, the pharmaceutical compositions for compounds of Formula (I) are tablets or gelatin capsules comprising an active ingredient of Formula (I) together with at least one of the following pharmaceutically acceptable excipients:
a) diluents, e.g., lactose, dextrose, sucrose, mannitol, sorbitol, cellulose and/or glycine;
b) lubricants, e.g., silica, talcum, stearic acid, its magnesium or calcium salt and/or polyethyleneglycol; for tablets also
c) binders, e.g., magnesium aluminum silicate, starch paste, gelatin, tragacanth, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose and/or polyvinylpyrrolidone; if desired
d) disintegrants, e.g., starches, agar, alginic acid or its sodium salt, or effervescent mixtures; and/or
e) absorbents, colorants, flavors and sweeteners.
Tablets may be either film coated or enteric coated according to methods known in the art.
Suitable compositions for oral administration include an effective amount of a compound of the invention in the form of tablets, lozenges, aqueous or oily suspensions, dispersible powders or granules, emulsion, hard or soft capsules, or syrups or elixirs. Compositions intended for oral use are prepared according to any method known in the art for the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions and such compositions can contain one or more agents selected from the group consisting of sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents and preserving agents in order to provide pharmaceutically elegant and palatable preparations. Tablets may contain the active ingredient in admixture with nontoxic pharmaceutically acceptable excipients which are suitable for the manufacture of tablets. These excipients are, for example, inert diluents, such as calcium carbonate, sodium carbonate, lactose, calcium phosphate or sodium phosphate; granulating and disintegrating agents, for example, corn starch, or alginic acid; binding agents, for example, starch, gelatin or acacia; and lubricating agents, for example magnesium stearate, stearic acid or talc. The tablets are uncoated or coated by known techniques to delay disintegration and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby provide a sustained action over a longer period. For example, a time delay material such as glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate can be employed. Formulations for oral use can be presented as hard gelatin capsules wherein the active ingredient is mixed with an inert solid diluent, for example, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate or kaolin, or as soft gelatin capsules wherein the active ingredient is mixed with water or an oil medium, for example, peanut oil, liquid paraffin or olive oil.
Certain injectable compositions are aqueous isotonic solutions or suspensions, and suppositories are advantageously prepared from fatty emulsions or suspensions. Said compositions may be sterilized and/or contain adjuvants, such as preserving, stabilizing, wetting or emulsifying agents, solution promoters, salts for regulating the osmotic pressure and/or buffers. In addition, they may also contain other therapeutically valuable substances. Said compositions are prepared according to conventional mixing, granulating or coating methods, respectively, and contain about 0.1-75%, or contain about 1-50%, of the active ingredient.
Suitable compositions for transdermal application include an effective amount of a compound of the invention with a suitable carrier. Carriers suitable for transdermal delivery include absorbable pharmacologically acceptable solvents to assist passage through the skin of the host. For example, transdermal devices are in the form of a bandage comprising a backing member, a reservoir containing the compound optionally with carriers, optionally a rate controlling barrier to deliver the compound of the skin of the host at a controlled and predetermined rate over a prolonged period of time, and means to secure the device to the skin.
Suitable compositions for topical application, e.g., to the skin and eyes, include aqueous solutions, suspensions, ointments, creams, gels or sprayable formulations, e.g., for delivery by aerosol or the like.

The following Schemes and Examples illustrate representative methods useful for making the compounds of Formula (I).
Compounds of Formula (I) where ring B is a pyrimidine can be prepared from known halopyrimidine intermediates, introducing ring C by a Suzuki or similar arylation reactions. The group -L-CY can be attached to Ring C before it is installed, or a protected amine can be present at the position corresponding to L for the Suzuki, and can be converted into the amide linker to form -L-CY after the Suzuki reaction.
Compounds having different groups on Ring B, instead of two morpholine groups, can be prepared by using thioalkyl-substituted pyrimidines, as exemplified in the following scheme. A desired A-ring morpholine group (see Formula (I)) can be attached using nucleophilic aromatic substitution chemistry, and a Suzuki or similar arylation can be used to attach Ring C. The thioalkyl group can then be activated toward nucleophilic displacement by oxidation to an alkylsulfonyl group, which can be displaced by various nucleophilic groups.
Alternatively, the oxidation can be done before the Suzuki reaction. This sequence can be used to install a heterocyclic or heteroaryl group on the B ring, or it can be used to introduce other nucleophiles such as alkoxy, amine or azide at this position. These can then be further modified as exemplified by amine alkylation (above) or, e.g., if azide is used as the nucleophile, a cycloaddition reaction can be used to make a heteroaryl substituent on Ring B as shown below.
Other compounds of Formula (I) wherein Ring B is pyrimidine can be made from 2,4,6-trichloropyrimidine by starting with a Suzuki reaction to introduce one group (R1), providing a mixture of isomeric products, as shown in Scheme 4. A morpholine A-ring can then be attached by aromatic nucleophilic substitution chemistry, followed by another Suzuki reaction.
Compounds of Formula (I) wherein Ring B is pyridine can be made by the following general methods, which provide various pyridine isomers. Bromo-fluoropyridines allow selective use of nucleophilic aromatic substitution and Suzuki or similar arylation chemistry.
Various other substituent groups can be introduced onto pyridinyl B-ring compounds by introducing only one optionally substituted morpholine on a 2,4,6-trihalopyridine, then sequentially replacing the other two halogens with suitable groups as illustrated in the following schemes. Scheme 6 illustrates introduction of an aryl or heteroaryl group on the B ring, using Suzuki chemistry; Scheme 7 illustrates use of aromatic nucleophilic substitution chemistry to introduce other nucleophilic substituents such as amines, alkoxy groups, and alkylthio groups.
The following scheme illustrates a general route for synthesis of compound of Formula (I) wherein the B-ring is pyridone. The sequence also produces alkoxy-substituted pyridine B-ring compounds of Formula (I).
Compounds of Formula (I) wherein the B-ring is pyridazine can be made similarly, using known halogenated pyridazine starting materials with nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions to attach Ring A (and/or other substituents on the B-ring), and Suzuki chemistry to attach Ring C.

The activity of a compound according to the present invention can be assessed by well-known in vitro & in vivo methods. Raf inhibition data provided herein was obtained using the following procedures.
The RAF enzymes and the catalytically inactive MEK1 protein substrate were all made in-house using conventional methods. CRAF cDNA was subcloned as full length protein, with Y340E and Y341E activating mutations, into a baculovirus expression vector for Sf9 insect cell expression. h14-3-3 zeta cDNA was subcloned into a baculovirus expression vector for SF9 insect cell expression. Sf9 cells co-expressing both proteins were lysed and subjected to immobilized nickel chromatography and eluted with Imidazole. A second column (Strepll binding column) was used and eluted with desthiobiotin. Protein Tags were removed using Prescission enzyme and the protein was further purified using a flowthrough step to remove tags.
C-Raf FL refers to the full-length protein described above; C-Raf TR refers to a truncated C-Raf protein, a A1-324 deletion mutant.
Full length MEK1 with an inactivating K97R ATP binding site mutation is utilized as a RAF substrate. The MEK1 cDNA was subcloned with an N-terminal (his)6 tag into a vector for E. Coli expression. The MEK1 substrate was purified from E. Coli lysate by nickel affinity chromatography followed by anion exchange. The final MEK1 preparation was biotinylated (Pierce EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-LC-Biotin) and concentrated.
