Description
FIELD

Provided herein are compounds for inhibiting and/or degrading IL-2 inducible T-cell kinase, compositions comprising the compounds, methods of making the same, and methods of their use for treating diseases or disorders including cancer, inflammatory, and autoimmune diseases.


BACKGROUND

IL-2 inducible T-cell kinase (ITK) is a tyrosine protein kinase and a member of the TEC family of kinases. Gibson et al., 1993, Blood 82(5):1561-1572. ITK is highly expressed in T-cells. Gomez-Rodriguez et al., 2011, FEBS J. 278(12):1980-1989. ITK is reported to be activated downstream of the T-cell receptor (TCR) via phosphorylation from Lck kinase. Gomez-Rodriguez et al., 2011. ITK is believed to activate phospholipase Cγ1 (PLCγ1) to drive T-cell function and immune responses. Gomez-Rodriguez et al., 2011; Kosaka et al., 2006, Trends Immunol. 27(10):453-60. ITK has been shown to be involved in numerous inflammatory, autoimmune, and proliferative diseases including allergic asthma, atopic dermatitis, aplastic anemia, inflammatory bowel disease, neuroinflammation, and T cell lymphomas. Lechner et al., 2020, J. Mol. Medicine 98:1385-1395. ITK provides a promising target for therapies for treating several inflammatory, autoimmune, and proliferative diseases and disorders.


SUMMARY

Unless otherwise indicated, an optionally substituted group can have a substituent at each substitutable position of the group, and when more than one position in any given structure can be substituted with more than one substituent selected from a specified group, the substituent can be either the same or different at every position. A ring substituent, such as a heterocycloalkyl, can be bound to another ring, such as a cycloalkyl, to form a spiro-bicyclic ring system, for example, both rings share one common atom. Non-limiting examples of spiro heterocycloalkyls include

the two rings can bond at any of the three available vertex atoms in either ring.


As one of ordinary skill in the art will recognize, combinations of substituents envisioned by this description are those combinations that result in the formation of stable or chemically feasible compounds.


As used herein, the phrase “stable or chemically feasible” refers to compounds that are not substantially altered when subjected to conditions to allow for their production, detection, and their recovery, purification, and use for one or more of the purposes disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a stable compound or chemically feasible compound is one that is not substantially altered when kept at a temperature of 40° C. or less, in the absence of moisture or other chemically reactive conditions, for at least a week.


As used herein, an “effective amount” is defined as the amount required to confer a therapeutic effect on the treated patient, and is typically determined based on age, surface area, weight, and condition of the patient. The interrelationship of dosages for animals and humans (based on milligrams per meter squared of body surface) is described by Freireich et al., Cancer Chemother. Rep., 50: 219 (1966). Body surface area may be approximately determined from height and weight of the patient. See, e.g., Scientific Tables, Geigy Pharmaceuticals, Ardsley, New York, 537 (1970). As used herein, “patient” refers to a mammal, including a human.


The terms “pharmaceutical formulation” and “pharmaceutical composition” refer to preparations that are in such form as to permit the biological activity of the active ingredient to be effective, and that contain no additional components that are unacceptably toxic to an individual to which the formulation or composition would be administered. Such formulations or compositions may be sterile.


The term “excipients” as used herein include pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, carriers, vehicles or stabilizers that are nontoxic to the cell or mammal being exposed thereto at the dosages and concentrations employed. In certain embodiments, the physiologically acceptable excipient is an aqueous pH buffered solution.


The terms “treating” or “treatment” of a disease refer to executing a protocol, which may include administering one or more therapeutic agent to an individual (human or otherwise), in an effort to obtain beneficial or desired results in the individual, including clinical results. In certain embodiments beneficial or desired clinical results include, but are not limited to, alleviation or amelioration of one or more symptoms, diminishment of extent of disease, stabilized (i.e., not worsening) state of disease, preventing spread of disease, delay or slowing of disease progression, amelioration or palliation of the disease state, and remission (whether partial or total). In certain embodiments, “treatment” also can mean prolonging survival as compared to expected survival of an individual not receiving treatment. In certain embodiments, “treating” and “treatment” may occur by administration of one dose of a therapeutic agent or therapeutic agents, or may occur upon administration of a series of doses of a therapeutic agent or therapeutic agents. In certain embodiments, “treating” or “treatment” does not require complete alleviation of signs or symptoms, and does not require a cure. In certain embodiments, “treatment” also can refer to clinical intervention, such as administering one or more therapeutic agents to an individual, designed to alter the natural course of the individual or cell being treated (i.e., to alter the course of the individual or cell that would occur in the absence of the clinical intervention). In certain embodiments, the term “therapeutic agent” can refer to a CTM drug that induce the proteolytic degradation of tyrosine-protein kinase (ITK), or compositions thereof.


The term an “individual” a “patient” or a “subject” refers a mammal. In certain embodiments, a “mammal” for purposes of treatment includes humans; non-human primates; domestic and farm animals; and zoo, sports, or pet animals, such as dogs, horses, rabbits, cattle, pigs, hamsters, gerbils, mice, ferrets, rats, cats, etc. In some embodiments, the individual or subject is human.


As used herein, the term “about” means within +10% of a value. For example, a dose that is about 100 mg/kg provides that the dose can be 90 mg/kg to 110 mg/kg. By way of further example, an amount of an additional therapeutic agent ranging from about 50% to about 100% provides that the amount of additional therapeutic agent ranges from 45-55% to 90-110%. A person of skill in the art will appreciate the scope and application of the term “about” when used to describe other values disclosed herein.


Unless otherwise stated, structures depicted herein also are meant to include all isomeric (e.g., enantiomeric, diastereomeric, and geometric (or conformational)) forms of the structure; for example, the (R)- and (S)-configurations for each asymmetric center, (Z)- and (E)-double bond isomers, and (Z)- and (E)-conformational isomers. Therefore, single stereochemical isomers as well as enantiomeric, diastereomeric, and geometric (or conformational) mixtures of the present compounds are within the scope of the description. Alternatively, as used herein, “enantiomeric excess (ee)” refers to a dimensionless mol ratio describing the purity of chiral substances that contain, for example, a single stereogenic center. For instance, an enantiomeric excess of zero would indicate a racemic (e.g., 50:50 mixture of enantiomers, or no excess of one enantiomer over the other). By way of further example, an enantiomeric excess of ninety-nine would indicate a nearly stereopure enantiomeric compound (i.e., large excess of one enantiomer over the other). The percentage enantiomeric excess, % ee=([(R)-compound]-[(S)-compound])/([(R)-compound]+[(S)-compound])×100, where the (R)-compound>(S)-compound; or % ee=([(S)-compound]-[(R)-compound])/([(S)-compound]+[(R)-compound])×100, where the (S)-compound>(R)-compound. Moreover, as used herein, “diastereomeric excess (de)” refers to a dimensionless mol ratio describing the purity of chiral substances that contain more than one stereogenic center. For example, a diastereomeric excess of zero would indicate an equimolar mixture of diastereoisomers. By way of further example, diastereomeric excess of ninety-nine would indicate a nearly stereopure diastereomeric compound (i.e., large excess of one diastereomer over the other). Diastereomeric excess may be calculated via a similar method to ee. As would be appreciated by a person of skill, de is usually reported as percent de (% de). % de may be calculated in a similar manner to % ee.

In certain embodiments, the compound is selected from the compounds in Table 1.


Pharmaceutical Compositions

The compounds described herein can be formulated into pharmaceutical compositions that further comprise a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, adjuvant, or vehicle. In one embodiment, this disclosure provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound described above, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, adjuvant, or vehicle. In one embodiment, this disclosure is a pharmaceutical composition comprising an effective amount of a compound of this disclosure, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, adjuvant, or vehicle. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include, for example, pharmaceutical diluents, excipients, or carriers suitably selected with respect to the intended form of administration, and consistent with conventional pharmaceutical practices.


According to another embodiment, the description provides a composition comprising a compound herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, adjuvant, or vehicle. Pharmaceutical compositions of this description comprise a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IIIa), (IV), (IVa), (V), (Va), (Vb), (VI), (VIa), and/or (VIb), wherein a “therapeutically effective amount” is an amount that is (a) effective to measurably degrade ITK (or reduce the amount of ITK) in a biological sample or in a patient; or (b) effective in treating and/or ameliorating a disease or disorder that is mediated by ITK.


The term “patient,” as used herein, means an animal, alternatively a mammal, and alternatively a human.


It also will be appreciated that certain compounds of this disclosure can exist in free form for treatment, or where appropriate, as a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative (e.g., a salt) thereof. According to this disclosure, a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative includes, but is not limited to, pharmaceutically acceptable prodrugs, salts, esters, salts of such esters, or any other adduct/educt or derivative that upon administration to a patient in need is capable of providing, directly or indirectly, a compound as otherwise described herein, or a metabolite, or residue thereof.


As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to those salts that are, within the scope of sound medical judgement, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of humans and lower animals without undue toxicity, irritation, allergic response, and the like.


Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are well known in the art. For example, S. M. Berge et al., describe pharmaceutically acceptable salts in detail in J. Pharmaceutical Sciences 1977, 66, 1-19, incorporated herein by reference. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of this description include those derived from suitable inorganic, and organic acids and bases. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable, nontoxic acid addition salts include salts of an amino group formed with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, and perchloric acid; or with organic acids such as acetic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, succinic acid, or malonic acid; or by using other methods used in the art such as ion exchange. Other pharmaceutically acceptable salts include adipate, alginate, ascorbate, aspartate, benzenesulfonate, benzoate, bisulfate, borate, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, citrate, cyclopentanepropionate, digluconate, dodecylsulfate, ethanesulfonate, formate, fumarate, glucoheptonate, glycerophosphate, gluconate, hemisulfate, heptanoate, hexanoate, hydroiodide, 2-hydroxy-ethanesulfonate, lactobionate, lactate, laurate, lauryl sulfate, malate, maleate, malonate, methanesulfonate, 2-naphthalenesulfonate, nicotinate, nitrate, oleate, oxalate, palmitate, pamoate, pectinate, persulfate, 3-phenylpropionate, phosphate, picrate, pivalate, propionate, stearate, succinate, sulfate, tartrate, thiocyanate, p-toluenesulfonate, undecanoate, valerate salts, and the like. Salts derived from appropriate bases include alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, ammonium and N+(C1-4 alkyl)4 salts. This description also envisions the quaternization of any basic nitrogen-containing groups of the compounds disclosed herein. Water or oil-soluble or dispersable products may be obtained by such quaternization. Representative alkali or alkaline earth metal salts include sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and the like. Further pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, when appropriate, nontoxic ammonium, quaternary ammonium, and amine cations formed using counterions such as halide, hydroxide, carboxylate, sulfate, phosphate, nitrate, lower alkyl sulfonate, and aryl sulfonate.


A pharmaceutically acceptable carrier may contain inert ingredients that do not unduly inhibit the biological activity of the compounds. The pharmaceutically acceptable carriers should be biocompatible, for example, non-toxic, non-inflammatory, non-immunogenic, or devoid of other undesired reactions or side-effects upon the administration to a subject. Standard pharmaceutical formulation techniques can be employed.


The pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, adjuvant, or vehicle, as used herein, includes any and all solvents, diluents, or other liquid vehicle, dispersion, or suspension aids, surface active agents, isotonic agents, thickening or emulsifying agents, preservatives, solid binders, lubricants, and the like, as suited to the particular dosage form desired. Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Sixteenth Edition, E. W. Martin (Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa., 1980) discloses various carriers used in formulating pharmaceutically acceptable compositions, and known techniques for the preparation thereof. Except insofar as any conventional carrier medium is incompatible with the compounds described herein, such as by producing any undesirable biological effect, or otherwise interacting in a deleterious manner with any other component(s) of the pharmaceutically acceptable composition, the use of such conventional carrier medium is contemplated to be within the scope of this description. As used herein, the phrase “side effects” encompasses unwanted and adverse effects of a therapy (e.g., a prophylactic or therapeutic agent). Side effects are always unwanted, but unwanted effects are not necessarily adverse. An adverse effect from a therapy (e.g., prophylactic, or therapeutic agent) might be harmful, uncomfortable, or risky. Side effects include, but are not limited to, fever, chills, lethargy, gastrointestinal toxicities (including gastric and intestinal ulcerations and erosions), nausea, vomiting, neurotoxicities, nephrotoxicities, renal toxicities (including such conditions as papillary necrosis and chronic interstitial nephritis), hepatic toxicities (including elevated serum liver enzyme levels), myelotoxicities (including leukopenia, myelosuppression, thrombocytopenia and anemia), dry mouth, metallic taste, prolongation of gestation, weakness, somnolence, pain (including muscle pain, bone pain, and headache), hair loss, asthenia, dizziness, extra-pyramidal symptoms, akathisia, cardiovascular disturbances, and sexual dysfunction.


Some examples of materials that can serve as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include, but are not limited to, ion exchangers, alumina, aluminum stearate, lecithin, serum proteins (such as human serum albumin), buffer substances (such as tween 80, phosphates, glycine, sorbic acid, or potassium sorbate), partial glyceride mixtures of saturated vegetable fatty acids, water, salts or electrolytes (such as protamine sulfate, disodium hydrogen phosphate, potassium hydrogen phosphate, sodium chloride, or zinc salts), colloidal silica, magnesium trisilicate, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, polyacrylates, waxes, polyethylene-polyoxypropylene-block polymers, methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, wool fat, sugars such as lactose, glucose, and sucrose; starches such as corn starch and potato starch; cellulose and its derivatives such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, and cellulose acetate; powdered tragacanth; malt; gelatin; talc; excipients such as cocoa butter and suppository waxes; oils such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil, and soybean oil; glycols such a propylene glycol or polyethylene glycol; esters such as ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; agar; buffering agents such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; alginic acid; pyrogen-free water; isotonic saline; Ringer's solution; ethyl alcohol, and phosphate buffer solutions, as well as other non-toxic compatible lubricants such as sodium lauryl sulfate and magnesium stearate, as well as coloring agents, releasing agents, coating agents, sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents. Preservatives and antioxidants can also be present in the composition, according to the judgment of the formulator.


As used herein, the term “measurably degrade,” means a measurable reduction in (a) ITK activity, between a sample comprising a compound of this description and an ITK and an equivalent sample comprising an ITK in the absence of said compound; or (b) the concentration of the ITK in a sample over time.


Administration

The compositions of the present invention may be administered orally, parenterally, by inhalation spray, topically, rectally, nasally, buccally, vaginally or via an implanted reservoir. As used herein, the term “parenteral” includes subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, intra-articular, intra-synovial, intrasternal, intrathecal, intraocular, intrahepatic, intralesional and intracranial injection or infusion techniques. Preferably, the compositions are administered orally, intraperitoneally or intravenously. Sterile injectable forms of the compositions of this invention may be aqueous or oleaginous suspension. These suspensions may be formulated according to techniques known in the art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation also may be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterally-acceptable diluent or solvent, for example as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium.


For this purpose, any bland fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono- or di-glycerides. Fatty acids, such as oleic acid and its glyceride derivatives, are useful in the preparation of injectables, as are natural pharmaceutically acceptable oils, such as olive oil or castor oil, especially in their polyoxyethylated versions. These oil solutions or suspensions also may contain a long-chain alcohol diluent or dispersant, such as carboxymethyl cellulose or similar dispersing agents that are commonly used in the formulation of pharmaceutically acceptable dosage forms including emulsions and suspensions. Other commonly used surfactants, such as Tweens, Spans and other emulsifying agents or bioavailability enhancers that are commonly used in the manufacture of pharmaceutically acceptable solid, liquid, or other dosage forms may also be used for the purposes of formulation.


The pharmaceutically acceptable compositions of this invention may be orally administered in any orally acceptable dosage form including, but not limited to, capsules, tablets, aqueous suspensions or solutions. In the case of tablets for oral use, carriers commonly used include lactose and corn starch. Lubricating agents, such as magnesium stearate, are also typically added. For oral administration in a capsule form, useful diluents include lactose and dried cornstarch. When aqueous suspensions are required for oral use, the active ingredient is combined with emulsifying and suspending agents. If desired, certain sweetening, flavoring or coloring agents also may be added.


Alternatively, the pharmaceutically acceptable compositions of this invention may be administered in the form of suppositories for rectal or vaginal administration. These can be prepared by mixing the agent with a suitable non-irritating excipient that is solid at room temperature but liquid at rectal temperature and therefore will melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity to release the drug. Such materials include cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol or a suppository wax that is solid at ambient temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity and release the active compound.


The pharmaceutically acceptable compositions of this invention also may be administered topically, especially when the target of treatment includes areas or organs readily accessible by topical application, including diseases of the eye, skin, or lower intestinal tract. Suitable topical formulations are readily prepared for each of these areas or organs.


Topical application for the lower intestinal tract can be effected in a rectal suppository formulation (see above) or in a suitable enema formulation. Topically-transdermal patches also may be used.


For topical applications, the pharmaceutically acceptable compositions may be formulated in a suitable ointment containing the active component suspended or dissolved in one or more carriers. Carriers for topical administration of the compounds of this invention include, but are not limited to, mineral oil, liquid petrolatum, white petrolatum, propylene glycol, polyoxyethylene, polyoxypropylene compound, emulsifying wax and water. Alternatively, the pharmaceutically acceptable compositions can be formulated in a suitable lotion or cream containing the active components suspended or dissolved in one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. Suitable carriers include, but are not limited to, mineral oil, sorbitan monostearate, polysorbate 60, cetyl esters wax, cetearyl alcohol, 2-octyldodecanol, benzyl alcohol and water.


For ophthalmic use, the pharmaceutically acceptable compositions may be formulated, e.g., as micronized suspensions in isotonic, pH adjusted sterile saline or other aqueous solution, or, preferably, as solutions in isotonic, pH adjusted sterile saline or other aqueous solution, either with or without a preservative such as benzylalkonium chloride. Alternatively, for ophthalmic uses, the pharmaceutically acceptable compositions may be formulated in an ointment such as petrolatum. The pharmaceutically acceptable compositions of this invention also may be administered by nasal aerosol or inhalation. Such compositions are prepared according to techniques well-known in the art of pharmaceutical formulation and may be prepared as solutions in saline, employing benzyl alcohol or other suitable preservatives, absorption promoters to enhance bioavailability, fluorocarbons, and/or other conventional solubilizing or dispersing agents.


In certain embodiments, the compositions of this disclosure are administered orally. The pharmaceutically acceptable compositions of this description may be orally administered in any orally acceptable dosage form including, but not limited to, capsules, tablets, aqueous suspensions, or solutions. In the case of tablets for oral use, carriers commonly used include lactose and corn starch. Lubricating agents, such as magnesium stearate, are also typically added. For oral administration in a capsule form, useful diluents include lactose and dried cornstarch. When aqueous suspensions are required for oral use, the active ingredient is combined with emulsifying and suspending agents. If desired, certain sweetening, flavoring, or coloring agents also may be added.


Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include, but are not limited to, pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs. In addition to the active compounds herein, the liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art such as, for example, water or other solvents, solubilizing agents and emulsifiers such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, dimethylformamide, oils (in particular, cottonseed, groundnut, corn, germ, olive, castor, and sesame oils), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycols and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, and mixtures thereof. Besides inert diluents, the oral compositions also can include adjuvants such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents.


Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound herein is mixed with at least one inert, pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or carrier such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate, and/or a) fillers or extenders such as starches, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and silicic acid; b) binders such as carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidinone, sucrose, and acacia; c) humectants such as glycerol; d) disintegrating agents such as agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate; e) solution retarding agents such as paraffin; f) absorption accelerators such as quaternary ammonium compounds; g) wetting agents such as, for example, cetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate; h) absorbents such as kaolin and bentonite clay; and i) lubricants such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate, and mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, the dosage form also may comprise buffering agents.


Solid compositions of a similar type also may be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like. The solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, and granules can be prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulating art. Solid dosage forms optionally may contain opacifying agents. These solid dosage forms also can be of a composition such that they release the active ingredient(s) only, for example, in a certain part of the intestinal tract, optionally, in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions that can be used include polymeric substances and waxes. Solid compositions of a similar type also may be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polethylene glycols and the like.


The active compounds herein also can be in micro-encapsulated form with one or more excipients as noted above. The solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, and granules can be prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings, release controlling coatings, and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulating art. In such solid dosage forms the active compound may be admixed with at least one inert diluent such as sucrose, lactose, or starch. Such dosage forms also may comprise, as is normal practice, additional substances other than inert diluents, for example, tableting lubricants and other tableting aids such a magnesium stearate and microcrystalline cellulose. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage forms also may comprise buffering agents. They may optionally contain opacifying agents and also can be of a composition such that they release the active ingredient(s) only, for example, in a certain part of the intestinal tract, optionally, in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions that can be used include polymeric substances and waxes.


The compounds of the description are formulated in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. As used herein, the phrase “dosage unit form” refers to a physically discrete unit of agent appropriate for the patient to be treated. It will be understood, however, that the total daily usage of the compounds, and compositions of this disclosure will be decided by the attending physician within the scope of sound medical judgment. The specific effective dose level for any particular patient or organism will depend upon a variety of factors including the disorder being treated and the severity of the disorder; the activity of the specific compound employed; the specific composition employed; the age, body weight, general health, sex, and diet of the patient; the time of administration, route of administration, and rate of excretion of the specific compound employed; the duration of the treatment; drugs used in combination or coincidental with the specific compound employed, and like factors well known in the medical arts.


The amount of the compounds of this disclosure that may be combined with the carrier materials to produce a composition in a single dosage form will vary depending upon the host treated, the particular mode of administration, and other factors. The compositions should be formulated so that a dosage of between 0.01-100 mg/kg body weight/day of the compound or inhibitor can be administered to a patient receiving these compositions.


Depending upon the particular condition, or disease, to be treated or prevented, additional therapeutic agents, which are normally administered to treat or prevent that condition, also may be present in the compositions of this disclosure. As used herein, additional therapeutic agents that are normally administered to treat or prevent a particular disease, or condition, are known as “appropriate for the disease, or condition, being treated.”


The compound or composition can be administered concurrently with, prior to, or subsequent to, one or more additional therapeutically active agents. In general, each agent will be administered at a dose and/or on a time schedule determined for that agent.

General Schemes For Preparing LHP Building Blocks

CRBN-targeting LHM can be generally prepared according to Scheme B1




embedded image


In Scheme B1, a functionalized thalidomide was first coupled to a linker precursor. The linker precursor (an amino tert-butyl ester) comprises “linker A” (i.e., representing one or more linker segments, including L5) and two terminal reactive groups, the amine and the protected carboxylic acid in ester form. Step 1 below describes in more detail the initial coupling step using the exemplary aminoester linker precursor.


Step 1: A mixture of 2-(2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl)-4-fluoro-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindole-1,3-dione (0.26 mmol), aminoester (0.26 mmol), ethylbis(propan-2-yl)amine (0.52 mmol) and DMF (1 mL) was allowed to stir at 90° C. overnight. The mixture was cooled and purified by HPLC (5-95% MeCN in H2O with 0.1% TFA) to afford the tert-butyl ester intermediate.


The tert-butyl ester intermediate was then hydrolyzed (see Step 2) to provide a CRBN-targeting LHP building block having “linker A” terminating in a carboxylic acid, which may be further coupled to another moiety.


Step 2: A mixture of tert-butyl 4-{[2-(2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl)-1,3-dioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindol-4-yl]amino}butanoate (0.10 mmol), CH2Cl2 (1 mL), and TFA (1 mL) was allowed to stir at room temperature for 2 h. The mixture was concentrated to afford the carboxylic acid product.


Described below are additional examples of CRBN-targeting LHM building blocks that may be prepared according to Scheme B1.

Cells were lysed overnight at −20° C. Following thaw, cells were centrifuged for 10 min at 13000 rpm, then transferred to new tube. Protein levels were determined by BCA Assay performed according to manufacturer's protocol (EMID Millipore, cat. no. 71285-3). Samples were combined with (4×) LDS Sample Buffer and (10×) Reducing Agent and H2O to equally load 20 ug protein per lane of a 26-well NuPAGE 4-12% Bis-Tris protein gel (1.0 mm, Thermo cat. no. NP0326). Samples were separated by running gels at constant 150 V in NuPAGE MES SDS Running Buffer. Following electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to nitrocellulose membranes using an iBlot Gel Transfer Device and iBlot Gel Transfer Stacks (Thermo cat. no. IB21001 and IB301001) and transfer method P3 (20V for 7 min). Membranes were blocked for 1 hr in 5% milk solution (TBS (0.2% Tween-20)). Following blocking, membranes were incubated with primary antibody (1:1000 CST ITK (2F12) #2380) overnight at 4° C. with gentle shaking. Blots were washed 2× in TBS (0.2% Tween-20), 30 min per wash. Following washes, blots were incubated in secondary HRP-conjugated antibody (Promega anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) HRP cat. no. W4021), 1:5000 in 5% milk solution (TBS (0.2% Tween-20)), for 1 hr at room temperature with gentle shaking. Blots were washed 2× in TBS (0.2% Tween-20), 30 min per wash. Blots were incubated with 1:1 mix of ECL reagents 1 & 2 (Amersham ECL Western Blotting Detection Reagent, cat. no. RPN2106) for 2 min at room temperature. Bands were visualized using a Protein Simple imager. Blots were then re-probed with a combination of anti-actin antibody (Sigma Monoclonal Mouse Anti-3-Actin (clone AC-15), cat. no. A5441) and secondary H1RP-conjugated antibody (Promega anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) HRP, cat. no. W4021) and similar steps were taken for incubation, wash, detection and visualization steps as above. The data was analyzed using Alpha View software. The densitometric reading for each sample band was normalized to that of the corresponding actin band per lane.

Biological Example 4—In Vivo Degradation after Oral Administration
Mouse PK Analysis

Compounds 16, 17, and 18 were administered to mice orally. After 6 hours or 24 hours, splenocytes cells were harvested. ITK was evaluated by Western blotting. Plasma concentrations were determined by LC/MS/MS. Plasma samples were protein precipitated by addition of 100 μl of acetonitrile containing 50 ng/ml of internal standard. The resulting mixture was vortexed and centrifuged at 4000 RPM for 5 minutes. An aliquot of the resultant supernatant (75 μl) was added to 75 μl of 0.1% formic acid in water to constitute the final sample for injection. Samples were injected on a Shimadzu Exion LC Binary Gradient AD Pump HLPC system connected to a Sciex QTRAP 6500+mass spectrometer. Five μl of sample was injected onto a Waters Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column 130A (2.1×30 mm, 1.7 m) at 40° C. utilizing a flow rate of 700 μl/minute. Mobile Phase A was 0.1% formic acid in water and mobile phase B was 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile. A linear gradient of 15-95% B over 1.0 minute was used. The mass spectrometer was operated in positive ion electrospray mode with multiple reaction monitoring for maximum sensitivity. Sciex Analyst software (version 1.6.3) was used for LC/MS/MS instrument control and acquisition. Compound concentration was determined against a standard curve of internal standard versus compound peak area ratio. Noncompartmental PK parameters were determined using Phoenix 32 software (version 8.2.0.4383) from Certara. Plasma concentrations from the LC/MS/MS analyses, dose, route of administration, and desired units were utilized for PK parameter calculations. As shown in FIG. 4A, compounds 17, 18, and 16 degraded ITK in vivo at 6 hours, and compounds 17 and 18 degraded ITK at 24 hours. As shown in FIG. 4B, compounds 16 and 17 were detected in plasma through 6 and 24 hours, respectively. FIG. 4C provides the concentration over time of compound 17 following in vivo oral administration in the 6 hour and 24 hour assays.


Noncompartmental PK Parameters

Cmax, Tmax and AUClast were all calculated using a WinNonLin Phoenix 64 v 8.2.0.4383. Using non-compartmental analysis, Tmax, Cmax and AUClast were determined as follows:

    • Tmax—Time of maximum observed concentration.
    • Cmax—Maximum observed concentration, occurring at time Tmax, as defined above.
    • AUClast—Area under the curve from the time of dosing to the time of the last measurable (positive) concentration (Tlast).
