This invention relates to disclosing novel deuterium-enriched compounds, pharmaceutical salts, compositions and methods of use thereof for stabilizing a protein namely transthyretin, inhibiting transthyretin misfolding, fibrils formation, aggregation and deposition of amyloid fibrils into various organs and tissues including heart, lung, kidney, liver, brain, and nervous system, and thereby treating transthyretin-mediated diseases, including transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) and other related diseases associated thereto.
Transthyretin (TTR) is a 55 kDa homotetrameric protein abundantly present in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), Transthyretin (TTR) is a tetrameric protein produced in the liver that serves as a plasma transport protein carrying thyroxine and retinol. In patients with transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR), unstable tetramer structure of thyretin protein (TTR) may dissociate due to genetic mutation (e.g. V122I mutation) or age and misfold into amyloid fibrils. These fibrils can then deposit in various tissues and/or organs throughout the body, leading to a constellation of symptoms. Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) has two types, hereditary or wild type. Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR) is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner with variable penetrance. Mutations in the TTR gene lead to the formation of abnormal proteins. Wild-type ATTR (ATTRwt) develops with age and is acquired when normal TTR tetramers destabilize and become amyloidogenic.
ATTRWT classically is present with cardiomyopathy, carpal tunnel syndrome, and radiculopathy in older patients, usually above the age of 60 years. hATTR amyloidosis is seen in younger (early-onset) and older patients (late-onset), resulting in peripheral neuropathy, cardiomyopathy, or a mixed combination. The phenotypes vary depending on the mutation.
Post-secretion amyloidogenesis of plasma TTR requiring rate limiting tetramer dissociation, monomer misfolding and misassembly putatively causes familial amyloid cardiomyopathy and the familial amyloid polyneuropathies, and senile systemic amyloidosis.
The TTR amyloid diseases include but are not limited to familial amyloid cardiomyopathy, familial amyloid polyneuropathy, leptomeningeal amyloids, oculoleptomengial amyloidosis, senile systemic amyloidosis, vitreous amyloidosis, and CNS amyloidosis. Amyloid diseases also include but are not restricted to ocular amyloidosis, gastrointestinal amyloidoses, neuropathic amyloidoses, non-neuropathic amyloidoses, nephropathy, non-hereditary amyloidoses, reactive/secondary amyloidoses, cerebral amyloidoses, Alzheimer's disease, spongiform encephalopathy (i.e. Creutzfeldt Jakob disease, GSS, fatal familial insomnia), frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Down Syndrome, multiple sclerosis, polyneuropathy, Guillain-Barré syndrome, macular degeneration, vitreous opacities, glaucoma, type II diabetes and medullary carcinoma of the thyroid.
General and non-invasive interventions to ameliorate TTR amyloidosis (ATTR) preferably by orally active drugs are in great need to treat ATTR and related diseases.
TTR is a 55 kDa tetramer composed of 127 amino-acid subunits exhibiting an unusually high β-sheet content. It possesses a conserved structural prototype of four identical monomeric subunits that form a central channel or binding site [Gasperini R. J., et al. Mechanisms of transthyretin aggregation and toxicity, Subcell. Biochem. 2012, 65, 211-224; Kelly J. W., et al. Transthyretin quaternary and tertiary structural changes facilitate misassembly into amyloid. Adv. Protein. Chem. 1997, 50, 161-181].
Structural changes in amyloidogenic TTR have been difficult to identify through X-ray crystallography; however, novel studies with nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy have revealed small chemical shifts to the backbone structure of mutated and WT-TTR [Leach B. I.,
Zhang X., Kelly J. W., Dyson H. J., Wright P. E. NMR Measurements reveal the structural basis of transthyretin destabilization by pathogenic Mutations. Biochemistry. 2018, 57, 4421-4430]. These changes are significant to the TTR ground state and the most significant changes were found in proximity to the site of the mutation. These subtle structural differences are just one consequence of the mutation, and different TTR variants might experience diverse structural deformation pathways, resulting in atypical responses to the cellular conditions or proteolytic stress,
ATTR-CM and ATTR-PN are rare, progressive and under-diagnosed ATTR-mediated potentially fatal diseases. Effective therapeutics are unavailable for the treatment or prevention of transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) and ATTR-mediated diseases. The present invention discloses novel deuterium-containing compounds that stabilize TTR dissociation and prevent TTR aggregation and provide therapeutics for the prevention and treatment of transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) and ATTR-mediated cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and related ATTR-mediated diseases.
The present invention is concerned with novel deuterium-enriched compounds of the general chemical structural formula I, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, compositions, and methods of use thereof,
wherein,
R is independently deuterium (D).
Compounds of chemical structural formula I are stabilizers of the tetrameric protein, Transthyretin (TTR), thereby these deuterium-enriched compounds of formula I can prevent
TTR dissociation and its subsequent aggregation, and deposition in organs and tissues, including heart, lungs, kidney, liver, brain, nervous system, and thereby treat Transthyretin Amyloidosis (ATTR) and ATTR-mediated diseases.
The compounds of formula I, and their pharmaceutical salts are Transthyretin (TTR) stabilizers, and are useful for the treatment of diseases mediated by TTR including Transthyretin Amyloidosis (ATTR) and related diseases.
Transthyretin Amyloidosis (ATTR) is a systemic, progressive, debilitating and life-threatening disease with a constellation of clinical manifestations. Transthyretin Amyloidosis (ATTR) is caused by formation, aggregation, and deposition of amyloid fibrils from destabilization of the tetrameric TTR in different organs and tissues including heart and nervous system and other organs including kidneys, resulting in end organ damage and their dysfunction. Transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis is an under diagnosed disease that is characterized by misfolding of TTR and aggregation as amyloid fibrils, predominantly leading to transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) or transthyretin amyloidosis polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN) depending on the particular TTR mutation. Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) can also occur as an age-related disease caused by misfolding of wild-type TTR.
Deuterium-enriched Compounds of formula 1 disclosed in the present invention are oral transthyretin (TTR) stabilizers for the treatment of transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) diseases including but not limited to transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and transthyretin amyloidosis polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN). Significant unmet medical need exists for prevention and/or treatment of ATTR-mediated diseases including ATTR-CM, ATTR-PN, and other diseases.
In this invention, we disclose the design and synthesis of highly potent and selective novel compounds as Transthyrin (TTR) stabilizers that can treat transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) diseases including but not limited to transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and transthyretin amyloidosis polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN).
These novel deuterium-enriched compounds of formula I and pharmaceuticals salts thereof can also treat leptomeningeal amyloids, oculoleptomengial amyloidosis, senile systemic amyloidosis, vitreous amyloidosis, and CNS amyloidosis. Amyloid diseases also include but are not restricted to ocular amyloidosis, gastrointestinal amyloidoses, neuropathic amyloidoses, non-neuropathic amyloidoses, nephropathy, non-hereditary amyloidoses, reactive/secondary amyloidoses, cerebral amyloidoses, Alzheimer's disease, spongiform encephalopathy (i.e. Creutzfeldt Jakob disease, GSS, fatal familial insomnia), frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Down Syndrome, multiple sclerosis, polyneuropathy, Guillain-Barré syndrome, macular degeneration, vitreous opacities, glaucoma, type II diabetes and medullary carcinoma of the thyroid.
This invention further constitute a method for stabilizing tetrameric structure of the transthyretin (TTR) protein preventing from its dissociation into its monomeric forms leading to protein misfolding and formation, aggregation, and deposition of amyloid fibrils in organs and tissues, thereby causing transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) in mammal, including humans, which comprises administering to a mammal in need of such treatment an effective amount of a compound of structural Formula I and pharmaceuticals salts thereof.
Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. Although methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of the present invention, the preferred methods and materials are described below. All publications, patent applications, patents, and other references mentioned herein are incorporated by reference in their entirety. In case of conflict, the present application, including definitions, will control. In addition, the materials, methods, and examples are illustrative only and not intended to be limiting.
Other features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following detailed description, and from the claims.
The present invention relates to novel deuterium-enriched compounds of general chemical structural formula I, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, compositions, and methods of use thereof,
wherein,
R is independently deuterium (D).
The compounds of formula I and pharmaceutically acceptable salts and combinations thereof, have activity for stabilizing transthyretin and are therefore useful in the treatment of diseases involving tetrameric transthyretin degradation, aggregation and accumulation of dissociated monomers into fibril deposits in various tissues and organs and thereby leading to their dysfunction and end-organ damage including heart, kidneys, brain and other organs and tissues.
Transthyretin (TTR) is an abundant protein in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Transthyretin (TTR) is a tetramer protein produced in the liver that serves as a plasma transport protein carrying thyroxine and retinol. TTR is a 55 kDa tetramer composed of 127 amino-acid subunits exhibiting an unusually high β-sheet content. It possesses a conserved structural prototype of four identical monomeric subunits that form a central channel or binding site [Gasperini R. J., et al. Mechanisms of transthyretin aggregation and toxicity. Subcell. Biochem. 2012, 65, 211-224; Kelly J. W., et al. Transthyretin quaternary and tertiary structural changes facilitate misassembly into amyloid. Adv. Protein. Chem. 1997, 50, 161-181].
Pathogenic mutations accelerate TTR aggregation by thermodynamic or kinetic destabilization of the protein [Hammerstrom, P., et al, Proc. Natl, Acad. Sci. U.S.A, 2002, 99, 16427-16432]; Hurshman, A. R., et al. Biochemistry 2008, 47, 6969-694]. Familial amyloid cardiomyopathy (FAC) and Familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) are the most prevalent ATTR diseases affecting the heart and peripheral nervous system, respectively [Jacobson, D. R., et al. N. Eng. J. Med. 1997, 336, 466-473; Andrade, C. A., Brain, 1952, 75, 408-427; Saraiva, M. J., J. Clin. Invest. 1984, 74, 104-119]. Rare mutations are involved in the central nervous system [Goren, H., et al. Brain 1980, 103, 473-495; Sekijima, Y., et al. Lab Invest. 2003, 83, 409-417]. FAC and FAP are also called transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and transthyretin amyloidosis polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN) respectively.
In patients with transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR), unstable tetrameric structure of thyretin protein (TTR) may dissociate due to genetic mutation (e.g. V122I mutation) or age, and misfolding into amyloid fibrils. These fibrils can then deposit in various tissues and/or organs throughout the body, leading to a constellation of symptoms. Transthyretin Amyloidosis (ATTR) is caused by formation, aggregation, and deposition of amyloid fibrils from destabilization of the tetrameric TTR in different organs and tissues including heart and nervous system and other organs including kidneys, resulting in end organ damage and their dysfunction.
Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) has two types, hereditary or wild type. Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR) is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner with variable penetrance. Mutations in the TTR gene lead to the formation of abnormal proteins. Wild-type ATTR (ATTRwt) develops with age and is acquired when normal TTR tetramers destabilize and become amyloidogenic. ATTRWT classically is present with cardiomyopathy, carpal tunnel syndrome, and radiculopathy in older patients, usually above the age of 60 years. hATTR amyloidosis is seen in younger (early-onset) and older patients (late-onset), resulting in peripheral neuropathy, cardiomyopathy, or a mixed combination. The phenotypes vary depending on the mutation.
General and non-invasive interventions to ameliorate TTR amyloidosis (ATTR) preferably by orally active drugs are of great interest and tremendous need for addressing unmet need to treat ATTR and related diseases.
Traditional drugs such as beta-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI), or angiotensin receptor antagonists/blockers (ARB) for symptomatic treatment, cannot slow, halt, or reverse the underlying cause of ATTR-CM.
The novel deuterium-enriched compounds disclosed in this invention are effective kineic stablizers of TTR that inhibit dissociation of the non-amyloidogenic native state of TTR protein. The stabilization of the native state of TTR by compounds of formula I also can treat neurodegerative diseases since misfolded oligomers have been reported to cause neurodegeneration.
Deuterium-enriched Compounds of formula I disclosed in the present invention are oral transthyretin (TTR) stabilizers for the treatment of transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) diseases including but not limited to transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and transthyretin amyloidosis polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN). Significant unmet medical need exists for prevention and/or treatment of ATTR-mediated diseases including ATTR-CM, ATTR-PN, and other diseases.
In this invention, we disclose the design and synthesis of highly potent and selective novel compounds as Transthyrin (TTR) stabilizers that can treat transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) diseases including but not limited to transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and transthyretin amyloidosis polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN).
These novel deuterium-enriched compounds of formula I and pharmaceuticals salts thereof can also treat leptomeningeal amyloids, oculoleptomengial amyloidosis, senile systemic amyloidosis, vitreous amyloidosis, and CNS amyloidosis. Amyloid diseases also include but are not restricted to ocular amyloidosis, gastrointestinal amyloidoses, neuropathic amyloidoses, non-neuropathic amyloidoses, nephropathy, non-hereditary amyloidoses, reactive/secondary amyloidoses, cerebral amyloidoses, Alzheimer's disease, spongiform encephalopathy (i.e. Creutzfeldt Jakob disease, GSS, fatal familial insomnia), frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Down Syndrome, multiple sclerosis, polyneuropathy, Guillain-Barre syndrome, macular degeneration, vitreous opacities, glaucoma, type II diabetes and medullary carcinoma of the thyroid.
Deuterium (D or 2H) is a stable non-radioactive isotope of hydrogen (H) and has an atomic weight of 2.0144. Hydrogen occurs naturally as a mixture of the isotopes 1H, D (2H or deuterium), and T (3H or tritium) and the natural abundance of deuterium is 0-015%. One of ordinary skill in the art recognizes that in all compounds containing H atom, H actually represents a mixture of H and D, with about 0-015% of D. So therefore, compounds with a level of D (deuterium) that has been enriched to be greater than its natural abundance of 0.015%, should be considered unnatural and as a result novel as compared to their corresponding non-enriched counterparts.
The carbon-hydrogen bonds contain a naturally occurring distribution of hydrogen isotopes, namely 1H or protium (about 99.9844%), 2H or deuterium (D) (about 0.0156%), and 3H or tritium (in the range between about 0.5 and 67 tritium atoms per 1018 protium atoms). Higher levels of deuterium incorporation produce a detectable Kinetic Isotope Effect [Werstiuk, N. H.; Dhanoa, D. S.; Timmins, G. Can J. Chem. 1979, 57, 2885; Werstiuk, N. H.; Dhanoa, D. S.; Timmins, G. Can J. Chem. 1983, 61, 2403], that could improve the pharmacokinetic, pharmacologic and/or toxicologic parameters of compounds of formula I in comparison to compounds having naturally occurring levels of deuterium and their corresponding hydrogen (protium) analogs.
Suitable modifications of certain carbon-hydrogen (C—H) bonds into carbon-deuterium (C-D) bonds can generate novel substituted compounds of structural formula I with unexpected and non-obvious improvements of pharmacological, pharmacokinetic and toxicological properties in comparison to the non-isotopically enriched compounds. This invention relies on the judicious and successful application of chemical kinetics to drug design. Deuterium incorporation levels in the compounds of the invention are significantly higher than the naturally-occurring levels and are sufficient to induce at least one substantial improvement as described herein.
“Deuterium enrichment” refers to the percentage of incorporation of deuterium at a given site on the molecule instead of a hydrogen atom. For example, deuterium enrichment of 1% means that in 1% of molecules in a given sample a particular site is occupied by deuterium. Because the naturally occurring distribution of deuterium is about 0.0156%, deuterium enrichment in compounds synthesized using non-enriched starting materials is about 0.0156%.
It can be a significant synthetic challenge to produce 100% deuterium at a specific site of a compound. High levels of deuterium content in a compound can be produced either by Hydrogen-Deuterium (H-D) exchange or by synthesizing the compound for specific deuteration. The H-D exchange is readily achieved in case of H atoms attached to heteroatoms for example in cases of carboxylic acids (COOH), sulfonamides (SO2NH2, CONHSO2-aryl, CONHSO2-alkyl), alcohols (OH), basic amines (NH2), etc. However, these incorporated deuterium (D) attached to heteroatoms (O, N, S) readily revert back to hydrogen (H) upon exposure to water or any acidic compounds containing H atoms. The preferred deuterium containing compounds contain deuterium (D) directly attached to carbon atoms of the structure of the compounds of this present invention.
In some embodiments, the deuterium enrichment in the compounds of the present invention is greater than 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9% or 10%. In other embodiments, the deuterium enrichment in the compounds of the present invention is greater than 20%. In further embodiments, the deuterium enrichment in the compounds of the present invention is greater than 50%. In some embodiments, the deuterium enrichment in the compounds of the present invention is greater than 70%. In some embodiments, the deuterium enrichment in the compounds of the present invention is greater than 90%.

The reaction scheme conceptualized and used for the synthesis of compounds and intermediates of this invention are general. It will be understood by those skilled in the art of organic synthesis that one or more functional groups present in a given compound of the invention may render the molecule incompatible with a particular synthetic sequence. In such a case an alternative synthetic route, an altered order of steps or a strategy of protection and deprotection may be employed. The reactions are performed in a solvent appropriate to the reagents and materials employed and suitable for the transformation being effected. It is understood by those skilled in the art of organic synthesis that the functionality present on the reactants and reagents being employed should be consistent with the chemical transformations being conducted. Depending upon the reactions and techniques to be used optimal yields may require changing the order of synthetic steps or use of protecting groups followed by deprotection. In all cases the particular reaction conditions, including reagents, solvent, temperature and time, should be chosen so that they are consistent with the nature of the functionality present in the molecule.
The compounds useful in the novel method treatment of this invention may form salts with various inorganic and organic acids and bases, which are also within the scope of the invention. Such salts include alkali metal salts like sodium and potassium salts, ammonium salts, alkaline earth metal salts such as calcium and magnesium salts, salts with organic bases for example dicyclohexylamine salts, N-methyl-D-glucamine salts, salts with amino acids e.g., arginine, lysine, etc. In addition, salts with organic and inorganic acids may be prepared; e.g., HCl, HBr, H2SO4, H3PO4, methanesulfonic, toluenesulfonic, maleic, fumaric, camphorsulfonic acid.
The salts can be formed by conventional means, such as by reacting the free acid or free base forms of the product with one or more equivalents of the appropriate base or acid in a solvent or medium in which the salt is insoluble, or in a solvent such as water, which is then removed in vacuo or by freeze-drying or by exchanging the cations of an existing salt for another cation on a suitable ion exchange resin.}
The compounds useful in the novel method treatment of this invention form solvates with various solvents, which are also within the scope of the invention. Such solvates include methyl tert-butyl ether solvates, diethyl ether or others.
It will be appreciated that the compounds of general Formula I in this invention may be derivatized at functional groups to provide prodrug derivatives, which are capable of conversion back to the parent compounds in vivo. The concept of prodrug administration has been extensively reviewed (e.g. A. A. Sinkula in Annual Reports in Medicinal Chemistry, Vol 10, R. V. Heinzelmann, ED., Academic Press, New York, London, 1975, Ch 13, pp 306-326; H. Ferres, Drugs of Today, Vol 19, 499-538, 1983, and J. Med. Chem., 18, 172, 1975).

The phrase “pharmaceutically acceptable salt(s)”, as used herein, unless otherwise indicated, includes salts of acidic or basic groups, which may be present in the compounds of formula I. The compounds of formula I that are basic in nature are capable of forming a wide variety of salts with various inorganic and organic acids. The acids that may be used to prepare pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of such basic compounds of formula I are those that form non-toxic acid addition salts, i.e. salts containing pharmacologically acceptable anions, such as the acetate, benzenesulfonate, benzoate, bicarbonate, bisulfate, bitartrate, borate, bromide, calcium edetate, camsylate, carbonate, chloride, clavulanate, citrate, dihydrochloride, edetate, edislyate, estolate, esylate, ethylsuccinate, fumarate, gluceptate, gluconate, glutamate, glycollylarsanilate, hexylresorcinate, hydrabamine, hydrobromide, hydrochloride, iodide, isothionate, lactate, lactobionate, laurate, malate, maleate, mandelate, mesylate, methylsulfate, mucate, napsylate, nitrate, oleate, oxalate, pamoate (embonate), palmitate, pantothenate, phospate/diphosphate, polygalacturonate, salicylate, stearate, subacetate, succinate, tannate, tartrate, teoclate, tosylate, triethiodode, and valerate salts.
Certain compounds of formula I may have asymmetric centers and therefore exist in different enantiomeric forms. All optical isomers and stereoisomers of the compounds of formula I and mixtures thereof, are considered to be within the scope of the invention. With respect to the compounds of formula I the invention includes the use of a racemate, one or more enantiomeric forms, one or more diastereomeric forms, or mixtures thereof. The compounds of formula I may also exist as tautomers. This invention relates to the use of all such tautomers and mixtures thereof.
Certain functional groups contained within the compounds of the present invention can be substituted for bioisosteric groups, that is, groups which have similar spatial or electronic requirements to the parent group, but exhibit differing or improved physicochemical or other properties. Suitable examples are well known to those of skill in the art, and include, but are not limited to moieties described in Patini et al., Chem. Rev, 1996, 96, 3147-3176 and references cited therein.
This invention also encompasses pharmaceutical compositions containing compounds of the formula I. and methods of treating ATTR, and ATTR-mediated diseases through administering prodrugs of compounds of the formula I. Compounds of formula I having carboxylic or amino groupscan be converted into prodrugs. Prodrugs include compounds wherein a carboxyl or an amino group can be derivatized into an easily cleavable group under physiological conditions in the mammals' bodies to enhance drug molecules absorption and increase its therapeutic effect in the subjects (e.g. human).
For instance, free carboxyl groups can be derivatized as amides or alkyl esters. Free hydroxy groups may be derivatized using groups including but not limited to hemisuccinates, phosphate esters, dimethylaminoacetates, and phosphoryloxymethyloxycarbonyls, as outlined in Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 1996, 19, 115. Carbamate prodrugs of hydroxy and amino groups are also included, as are carbonate prodrugs, sulfonate esters and sulfate esters of hydroxy groups. Derivatization of hydroxy groups as (acyloxy) methyl and (acyloxy) ethyl ethers wherein the acyl group may be an alkyl ester, optionally substituted with groups including but not limited to ether, amine and carboxylic acid functionalities, or where the acyl group is an amino acid ester as described above, are also encompassed. Prodrugs of this type are described in J. Med. Chem. 1996, 39, 10. Free amines can also be derivatized as amides, sulfonamides or phosphonamides.

The synthesis of the novel deuterium-enriched (deuterated or deuterium-containing) compounds of Formula I of this invention is shown below in Schemes 1-2.
Those skilled in the art will recognize or be able to ascertain using no more than routine experimentation, numerous equivalents to the specific reagents can be utilized to produce compounds of the invention. Numerous modifications and variations of the present invention are possible and therefore it is understood that within the scope of the appended claims, the invention may be practiced otherwise that as specifically described herein. Other aspects, advantages and modifications are within the scope of the invention.
One of the three main building blocks, 4-Fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic acid 1, for the synthesis of compounds of chemical structural formula I, is heated at reflux conditions with deuterium oxide (D2O ) and deuterium chloride (DC1) at pD 0.32 (pD is equivalent of pH in case of HCl) for 1 hour to yield the dideuterated 4-Fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic acid-d22 as shown in Scheme 1. The deuterated compound 2 is converted into its methyl ester 4 by refluxing 2 in methanol in the presence of a catalytic amount of concentrated sulfuric acid for overnight. Alternatively, 4-Fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic acid 1 is converted into its methyl ester 3, from which deuterated benzoic acid compound 4 is prepared.
Microwave irradiation (microwave heating) at 180° C. of a mixture of 3, D2O and concentrated HCl (1 equivalent) in a microwave apparatus for 30 minutes yields deuterated 4-fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic methyl ester 4. Compound 3 is also transformed into its corresponding deuterated analog compounds by treating methyl 4-fluoro-3-hydroxybenozoate 3 with D2O and DCI at pD 0.32 under reflux conditions for one hour. Ethyl ester of 4-Fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic acid is also prepared using same synthetic methods and procedure by using ethyl alcohol (C2H5OH, Ethanol, EtOH) instead of methanol (CH3OH, methyl alcohol). Ethanol is readily available from commercial sources in its absolute form (100% ethyl alcohol) but tends to be more expensive than its reagent grade ethanol or reagent grade methanol. Both methanol and ethanol can be dried (to remove any trace amounts of water content present in reagent grade CH3OH or CH3CH2OH by various methods routinely used in organic synthesis laboratories).
Second key intermediate compound 5 required for the synthesis of the compounds of formula I of this invention is deuterated 1-3-dibromopropane-d2-6 5, which is prepared from either diethyl malonate 5a (R1=ethyl), dimethyl malonate 5a (R1=methyl), deuterated diethyl malonate-d2 5c or dimethyl malonate-d2 5c, or malonaldehyde 5e, as shown in Scheme 1. Malonic acid esters 5a are reduced using lithium aluminum deuteride (LiAlD4) in diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran (THF) at low temperature to produce the corresponding tetradeuterated reduced product, alcohol 5b-d4. Propane-1,3-diol 5b is also synthesized by reduction of malonic esters 5a using diisobutylaluminum deuteride (DIBAL-D) in THF or using DIBAL-D in THF followed by treatment with sodium borodeuteride (NaBD4) to yield propane diol 5b-d4.
Dideuteromalonate esters 5c are prepared from readily available dimethyl malonate or diethyl malonate 5a by treatment of 5a with sodium ethoxide and deuterium oxide (or deuterium water, D2O ). Dideuterated malonic esters 5c are reduced to the corresponding hexadeuterated 1,3-propane-diol 5d using either LiALD4 or treatment with DIBAL-D and then reduction of resulting aldehyde with NaBD4 to afford 5-d6, as shown in Scheme 1.
Tetradeuterated 1,3-propanediol is also prepared from commercially available malonaldehyde 5e (1,3-propanedialhyde or 1,3-propanal). As shown in Scheme 1, dialdehyde 5e is reduced by treatment of 5e with sodium borodeuteride (NaBD4) to yield 1,1,3,3-deutero-1,3-propanediol 5b-d4.
Deuterated 1,3-propanediol intermediate compounds 5b and 5d are then converted individually to their corresponding deuterated 1,3-dibromopropane derivatives 5-d4 and 5-d6 by their treatment carbon tetrabromide (CBr4) and triphenyl phosphine (Ph3P) in methylene chloride (CH2Cl2) at 0° C. to room temperature (RT). Dihydroxy intermediate 5b and 5d are also converted into their corresponding dibromides 5-d4 and 5-d6 by treatment with phosphorus triboromide (PBr3) and diethyl ether (or ether, Et2O) as shown in Scheme 1.
Third key intermediate compound needed as building block for the synthesis of the compounds of formula I of this invention is deuterated acetylacetone (2,4-pentanedione-d1-6, 8) which is synthesized from acetylacetone 7. Acetylacetone 7 is treated with lithium diisopropyl amide (LDA) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at −78° C. (dry ice in acetone bath) and deuterium oxide (D2O ) or deuterium chloride (DC1) to yield highly deutertated acetylacetone 8 as shown in Scheme 1.
Synthesis of compounds of formula I of this invention is further shown in Scheme 2 given below. Deuterated methyl benzoate 4 is alkylated with deuterated 1,3-dibromopropane 5, partially deuterated or undeuterated 1,3-dibormopropane using either anhydrous potassium carbonate (K2CO3) as a base in acetone under reflux conditions overnight or using cesium carbonate (Cs2O3) as base in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as solvent to give corresponding alkylated deuterated compound 6. (Dhanoa, D. S. et. al., J. Med. Chem. 1993, 36, 3788-3742). After completion of the reaction, it is quenched with cold water. Then, the reaction is diluted with methylene chloride and washed with brine. The organic phase is dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under vacuum. The residue obtained as such is purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, ethyl acetate hexanes) to isolate purified alkylated deuterated compounds 6. Treatment of acetylacetone or deuterated acetyl acetone compounds 8 with an organic base 1,8-diazabicyclo [5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) in benzene and advanced intermediate compounds 6 produces the further alkylated penultimate intermediate 9. Treatment of the diketo derivatives 9 with hydrazine sulfate in 10% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) gives the deuterated pyrazoles 10 [Wiley, R. H., et al., 3,5-Dimethylpyrazole. Org. Synth. 1951, 31, 43]. Saponification of the deuterated methyl ester product 10 with either aqueous solution of NaOH or LiOH in THE produces the corresponding pyrazolocarboxylic acid product 11.

The combined organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated using rotary evaporator to give the product, 3-(3-(3,5-bis (methyl-d3)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl) propoxy-1,1,2,2,3,3-d6)-4-fluorobenzoic acid, 11 (120 mg, 79% yield) as a white solid; Mass Spec. (m/z): C15H5D12FN2O3+H+=304.1976 (M+H+).
Biological assays and methods for evaluating the activity of compounds of the present invention of formula I, and their pharmaceuticals salts, to increase the stability of tetrameric protein transthyretin (TTR) thereby preventing it from misfolding, aggregating, and depositing into organs and tissues and forming TTR amyloid are described below.
Binding Affinity Assay of Compounds to TTR
The binding affinity of compounds of the present invention to Transthyretin (TTR) at physiological pH is determined using fluorescence polarization (FP) assay. Known TTR kinetic stabilizer compounds (TTR natural ligand T4, tafamidis and acodamidis) are used as controls for comparison in this assay. The FP assay is a competitive assay that is used to determine ligand binding to TTR by determining displacement of a fluorescent probe from T4-binding sites of TTR by test compounds, All test compounds bind to TTR (purified from human plasma) at 10 μM. Test compounds, are assayed in a multi-point dose-response FP assay (concentration range between 0.003 and 100 μM). Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) is used to determine the binding constants of test compounds to TTR and also to determine cooperativity between the two TTR T4 sites. ITC measurements show high binding constant of test compounds in low nanomolar range, Analysis of the free energies associated with compounds shows high binding affinity and the dissociation constants show that compounds bind to TTR with negative cooperativity.
Transthyretin Amyloid Fibril Formation Assay
The test compounds are dissolved in DMSO at a concentration of 720 μM. A solution of 5 microliter of a test compound is added to 0.5 mL of a 7.2 μM TTR solution in 10 mM phosphate pH 7.6, 100 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA buffer, allowing the compound to incubate with TTR for 30 min. 495 μL of 0.2 mM acetate pH 4.2, 100 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA is added, to afford final protein and inhibitor concentrations of 3.6 μM each and a pH of 4.4. The mixture is then incubated at 37° C. for 72 h, after which the tubes are vortexed for 3 seconds and the optical density is measured at 400 nm. The extent of fibril formation is determined by normalizing each optical density by that of TTR without inhibitor, defined to be 100% fibril formation. Control solutions of each compound in the absence of TTR are also tested and none absorbed appreciably at 400 nm.
Isothermal Titration Calorimetry Assay
A 25 μM solution of a test compound (in 10 mM phosphate pH 7.6, 100 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 8% DMSO.) is titrated into a 1.2 M solution of TTR in an identical buffer using a Microcal MCS Isothermal Titration calorimeter (Microcal, Northampton, Mass.). An initial injection of 2 pL is followed by 25 injections of 10 pL at 25° C. The thermogram is integrated and a blank is subtracted to yield a binding isotherm that fit best to a model of two identical binding sites using the ITC data analysis package in ORIGIN 5.0 (Microcal).
Isothermal Titration Calorimetry Assay
Calorimetric titrations are conducted on a VP-ITC calorimeter (MicroCal, Northampton, Mass.). A solution of test compound (a compound of the present invention, and Tafamidis) (25 UM in PBS pH 7.4, 100 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 8% DMSO) is prepared and degassed for 0.25 hour, and then titrated into an isothermal titration calorimetry cell containing 2 μM of TTR in an identical buffer. Solutions of test compounds (8.0 μL each) are injected into the isothermal titration calorimetry cell at 25° C. to fully saturate TTR with ligand. Integration of the thermogram after the subtraction of blanks gives a binding isotherm that fit best to a model of two interacting sites exhibiting negative cooperativity. The data are fit by a nonlinear least squares approach with four adjustable parameters: Kat, AH1, Kaz, and AH2 using the isothermal titration calorimetry data analysis module in MicroCal ORIGIN 5.0 software.
Isothermal Titration Calorimetry Assay
The thermodynamic parameters that characterize the binding of TTR ligands to WT-TTR are also determined using a MicroCal Auto-iTC200 calorimeter (MicroCal, Malvern-Panalytical), [Francisca, P., et al. FEBS Journal, 2021, 288, 310-324]. A 100 μM solution of a test compound (in a PBS buffer pH 7.0 containing 100 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA and 2.5% DMSO) is titrated into an ITC cell containing a 5 μM solution of WT-TTR in the same buffer at 25° C. A stirring speed of 750 rpm and 2 μL injections is programmed, with a 150 s equilibration period between each injection to allow the calorimetric signal (thermal power) to return to baseline and a 10 ucal/s reference power. Two independent titrations are done for each TTR ligand. The experimental data are analyzed with a general model for a protein with two ligand-binding sites [A unified framework based on the binding polynomial for characterizing biological systems by isothermal titration calorimetry, Vega, S., et al. Methods (Amsterdam, Netherlands), 2015, 76, 99-115; Isothermal titration calorimetry: general formalism using binding polynomials, Freire, E., et al., Methods in Enzymology, 2009, 455 (Biothermodynamics, Part A), 127-155] implemented in Origin 7.0 (OriginLab) accounting for cooperative and non-cooperative binding.
Urea-Induced TTR Tetramer Dissociation Kinetics
TTR solutions (1.8 μM in PBS) are incubated with different TTR ligands (3.6 μM) for 30 min at RT, and 6 M urea is added. DMSO is used as a control. The process of unfolding is tracked by intrinsic fluorescence spectroscopy using FP-8200 Spectrofluorometer (Jasco). Trp residues are excited at 295 nm, and emission spectra are collected from 310 to 400 nm. Trp exposure upon denaturation red shifts the wavelength of maximum fluorescence from approximately 335 to 355 nm. The 355/335 fluorescence emission intensity is normalized from minimum (100% folded) to maximum (0% folded) and plotted as a function of time. The TTR fluorescence of the control sample after incubation at RT for 96 h in 6 M urea is considered the maximum.
TTR In Vitro Aggregation Assay
The anti-aggregational activity of TTR ligands is evaluated using the established acid-mediated aggregation assay [Francisca, P., et al. FEBS Journal, 2021, 288, 310-324]. WT-TTR solutions (7 μM in 10 mM sodium phosphate, 100 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT, pH 7.0) are mixed with increasing concentrations of test compounds (prepared in 100% DMSO). The percentage of DMSO is adjusted to 5% (v/v) in the final reaction assay mixture. After incubating for 30 min at 37° C., the pH of the samples is dropped to 4.2 by the addition of acetate buffer (100 mM sodium acetate, 100 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT, pH 4.2), and the solutions are further incubated for 72 h at 37° C. The extent of TTR aggregation is determined by measuring turbidity at 340 nm using a Varian Cary Eclipse Fluorescence Spectrophotometer (Agilent Technologies). As some of the compounds present dose-dependent absorbance at 340 nm, each measurement is corrected with a buffer containing the same concentration of the test compound but lacking TTR. For each inhibitor concentration, the percentage of TTR aggregation is given by the ratio of the turbidity of the sample of interest to that of a control sample incubated without compound multiplied by 100%.
TTR Stabilization Studies by Isoelectric Focusing
Isoelectric focusing (IEF) under semi-denaturing conditions [Binding of epigallocatechin-3-gallate to transthyretin modulates its amyloidogenicity, Ferreira, N., FEBS Letters, 2009, 583, 3569-3576] is used to evaluate the stabilizing effect of test compound of the present invention on recombinant TTR and in plasma TTR. Recombinant WT-TTR is produced using an Escherichia coli bacterial expression system, as detailed elsewhere [Selective binding to transthyretin and tetramer stabilization in serum from patients with familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy by an iodinated diflunisal derivative, Almeida, M. R., et al. Biochemical Journal, 2004, 381, 351-356]. For the plasma assays, human plasma from control individuals (n=6), carrying WT-TTR (˜3.9 μM), is incubated ON at 4° C. with tafamidis, tolcapone, or test compound of the present invention at two different concentrations (19.5 and 39 μM). Similarly, recombinant WT-TTR (6 μM) is also treated ON at 4° C. with the same compounds at concentrations of 30 and 60 μM. DMSO (5%) is used as vehicle. Control samples are incubated in similar conditions without the compounds. After incubation, the samples are loaded into a native PAGE, and the gel band containing TTR is excised and applied to an IEF gel. The IEF gel contained 4 M urea (semi-denaturing conditions) and 5% (v/v) ampholytes, pH 4-6.5 (Sigma-Merck), and is run at 1200 V for 5 h. Proteins are fixed and stained with Coomassie blue. The gels are scanned using a GS-900 calibrated densitometer (Bio-Rad) and analyzed by densitometry using the QuantityOne software version 4.6.6 (Bio-Rad). The ratio of the TTR tetramer over total TTR (TTR tetramer+monomer) is calculated for each plasma sample, and the percentage of tetramer stabilization is calculated as ((ratio treated sample-ratio control sample)/ratio control sample)×100. Treated and control plasma samples come from the same donor.
T4 Binding Competition Assay
Binding competition assays with radioactive T4 (2-amino-3-(4-(4-hydroxy-3,5-diiodophenoxy)-3,5-diiodophenyl) propanoic acid) are performed by incubation of 5 μL of human plasma samples of WT-TTR carriers (n=4) with 1 μL of [125]]-T4 (specific radioactivity 1250 μCi/μg; concentration 320 μCi/mL; Perkin Elmer) in the presence of 39 μM compounds. The negative control is performed by addition of same amount of DMSO to samples. After 1 h incubation at RT, plasma proteins are fractionated by native PAGE [Transthyretin (prealbumin) in familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy: genetic and functional aspects, Saraiva, M. J., et al., Advances in neurology, 1988, 48, 189-200], and the gels are dried and exposed to an autoradiography film. The films are scanned, and the intensity of the bands is determined by densitometry using Image Lab software version 5.2.1 (Bio-Rad). The ratio of T4 (2-amino-3-(4-(4-hydroxy-3,5-diiodophenoxy)-3,5-diiodophenyl) propanoic acid) bound to TTR over total T4 (TBG+ALB+TTR) is calculated for each sample and normalized to the maximum value, which corresponds to the negative control sample.
Biological Activity of Test Compounds as Stabilizers of Both WT-TTR and V122I-TTR in Human Serum Against Acid-Mediated Dissociation and Amyloidogenesis
The test compounds are tested for their ability to stabilize WT-TTR in human serum. TTR tetramer dissociation to monomers and subsequent aggregation occur very inefficiently at neutral pH. To measure the TTR stabilizing effect of test compounds, an acid-mediated tetramer dissociation assay is used. Test compounds (10 μM) are pre-incubated with human serum (TTR 5 μM) and the pH is lowered to pH 4.0 to induce aggregation. Aliquots, taken at 0 and 72 hours, are treated with glutaraldehyde to cross-link TTR tetramers that remained intact in the serum sample. SDS-PAGE followed by immunoblot analysis is used to measure the amount of intact TTR tetramer after 72 hours of acid treatment in the presence and absence of test compounds. Test compounds of the present invention are found to be highly effective stabilizers of serum WT-TTR. At 10 μM, test compounds of the present invention are also highly effective in nearly complete stabilization of the V1221-TTR mutant in serum samples.
Determination of Solubility of Compounds
Solubility of compounds is determined by addition of known and weighed amount of a compound of the present invention to a stirred distilled or deionized water until total complete dissolution. All experiments are performed in triplicate.
Cytotoxicity Assay
Cytotoxicity assays are performed to evaluate chemical toxicity of test compounds of the present invention to human cells. Two cell lines, HeLa and HepG2 cells, are cultured in MEM ALPHA (Gibco) and 10% FBS at 37° C. in 5% CO2 humidified atmosphere. HeLa cells are seeded at 3500 cells/well and HepG2 cells at 4500 cells/well in 96-well plates and incubated with increasing concentrations of compound at a range of concentrations from 2 to 100 μM during 72 h at 37° C. Controls are performed with the equivalent amount of DMSO relative to each concentration of compound diluted in MilliQ water. Then, cell viability is determined by addition of 10 μL of the PrestoBlue reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific), and after an incubation period of 15 min at 37° C., the fluorescence intensity is collected using a 590/20 filter with an excitation wavelength of 535 in a Victor3 Multilabel Reader (PerkinElmer). Experiments are carried out in triplicate, and the percentage of cell viability for each well is calculated as (intensity sample-mean intensity blank)/(mean intensity control-mean intensity blank)×100, where “mean intensity blank” corresponds to the mean intensity of wells with PrestoBlue alone and “mean intensity control” is the mean intensity of wells that contain the corresponding percentage of DMSO.
