The invention also relates to process for preparation thereof, pharmaceutical compositions comprising them, and their use for treatment and prevention in diseases or disorder, in particular their use in treatment of diseases or disorder associated with bromodomain inhibition.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The acetylation of histone lysine is central to providing the dynamic regulation of chromatin-based gene transcription. The bromodomain (BRD), which is the conserved structural module in chromatin-associated proteins and histone acetyltranferases, is the sole protein domain known to recognize acetyl-lysine residues on proteins.


The BET family of bromodomain containing proteins comprises 4 proteins (BRD2, BRD3, BRD4 and BRD-t) which contain tandem bromodomains capable of binding to two acetylated lysine residues in close proximity, increasing the specificity of the interaction. BRD2 and BRD3 are reported to associate with histones along actively transcribed genes and may be involved in facilitating transcriptional elongation (Leroy et al, Mol. Cell. 2008 30(1):51-60), while BRD4 appears to be involved in the recruitment of the pTEF-[beta] complex to inducible genes, resulting in phosphorylation of RNA polymerase and increased transcriptional output (Hargreaves et al, Cell, 2009 138(1): 129-145). It has also been reported that BRD4 or BRD3 may fuse with NUT (nuclear protein in testis) forming novel fusion oncogenes, BRD4-NUT or BRD3-NUT, in a highly malignant form of epithelial neoplasia (French et al. Cancer Research, 2003, 63, 304-307 and French et al. Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2004, 22 (20), 4135-4139). Data suggests that BRD-NUT fusion proteins contribute to carcinogenesis (Oncogene, 2008, 27, 2237-2242). BRD-t is uniquely expressed in the testes and ovary. All family members have been reported to have some function in controlling or executing aspects of the cell cycle, and have been shown to remain in complex with chromosomes during cell division suggesting a role in the maintenance of epigenetic memory. In addition some viruses make use of these proteins to tether their genomes to the host cell chromatin, as part of the process of viral replication (You et al Cell, 2004 117(3):349-60).


Japanese patent application JP2008156311 discloses a benzimidazole derivative which is said to be a BRD2 bromodomain binding agent has utility with respect to virus infection/proliferation.


International patent application WO2009084693A1 discloses a series of thienotriazolodiazepiene derivatives that are said to inhibit the binding between an acetylated histone and a bromodomain containing protein which are said to be useful as anti-cancer agents.


International patent application WO2011054846A1 discloses a series of quinoline derivatives that inhibit the binding of BET family bromodomains with acetylated lysine residues.


However, there remains a need for potent bromodomain inhibitors with desirable pharmaceutical properties. Certain bicyclic heterocyclic derivatives have been found in the context of this invention to have a class of compounds that inhibit the binding of BET family bromodomains to acetylated lysine residues for controlling the gene expressions in human health and disease. Such compounds will hereafter be referred to as “bromodomain inhibitors”.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides bicyclic heterocyclic derivatives of the formula (I) that inhibit the binding of BET family bromodomains to acetylated lysine residues.

In-Vitro Biochemical Data of bicyclic heterocyclic derivatives in time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) assay.


The Bet brommodomain TR-FRET assay has been used to identify compounds that bind to bet bromodomain and prevent its interaction with acetylated histone peptides.


In the assay, optimized concentration of in-house Bet bromodomain protein (BRD4) and 300 nM of acetyl histone peptide substrate were diluted in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH: 7.5, 50 mM NaC, 500 μM CHAPS) and were added to the positive control and test control wells in a 384 well plate. Substrate control wells have 300 nM of acetyl histone peptide substrate diluted in assay buffer. Buffer blank wells were added with assay buffer. The reaction mixture was allowed for incubation at room temperature for 30 mins. Stock solutions of test compounds at 20 mM DMSO are prepared. Compounds are serially diluted and added to the test wells in 384-well polypropylene plates. The reaction mixture was further incubated for 30 mins at room temperature on a plate shaker. 2 nM of Europium labeled streptavidn and 10 nM of XL-665 labeled antibody diluted in detection buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH: 7.5, 50 mM NaCl, 500 μM CHAPS and 800 mM KF) were added to all the wells excluding the buffer blank wells. The reaction plate was incubated for additional 30 mins at room temperature on plate shaker. The plate was read in Perkin Elmer WALLAC 1420 Multilabel Counter Victor 3 (Ex: 340 nm Em: 615 and 665 nm). The amount of displacement of the peptide was measured as ratio of specific 665 nm energy transfer signal to 615 nm signals. The compounds IC50 was determined by fitting the dose response data to sigmoid curve fitting equation using Graph Pad Prism software V5.


The compounds were screened in the above mentioned assay and the results (ICso) are summarized in the table below; wherein “A” refers to an IC50 value of less than or equal to 1000 nM, “B” refers to ICso value in range of 1000.01 to 3000 nM and “C” refers to IC50 value of greater than 3000 nM.
