Patent Application
20130150364
The present invention relates to a heterocyclic compound which is useful as an active ingredient of a pharmaceutical composition, for example, a pharmaceutical composition for preventing and/or treating phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase δ (PI3Kδ)-related diseases.
Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) is a lipid signaling kinase, which is present universally throughout species, ranging from plants or yeasts to mammals including humans. PI3K is an enzyme for phosphorylating the hydroxyl group at the 3-position of phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate, and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-diphosphate, which are cell membrane phospholipids, and from each of these substrates, phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate, phosphatidylinositol-3,4-diphosphate, and phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3) are produced. These phosphorylated phosphatidylinositols thus produced act as an intracellular second messenger. Particularly, PIP3 causes migration of various molecules having pleckstrin homology (PH) domains to a position near the cell membrane to induce activation of the molecules, and thus it is considered to be the most important phosphorylated phosphatidylinositol (“The Journal of Biological Chemistry”, 1999, Vol. 274, p. 8347-8350).
PI3K is divided into three classes, Classes I, II, and III, according to various characteristics, and from the viewpoints that the only enzyme producing PIP3 in vivo is Class I PI3K, the Class I PI3K is considered to be the most important class (“Biochimica et Biophysica Acta”, 2008, Vol. 1784, p. 159-185). The Class I PI3K is subdivided into IA and IB. The Class IA PI3K consists of heterodimers including a combination of a 110-kDa catalytic subunit (p110α, β, or δ) and a 50- to 85-kDa regulatory subunit (p85α, p85β, p55α, p55γ, or p50α), and the Class IB PI3K is a heterodimer of a 110-kDa catalytic subunit (p110γ) and a 101-kDa regulatory subunit (p101) (“Nature Immunology”, 2003, No. 4, p. 313-319). Hereinafter, the respective names of PI3K are referred to as PI3Kα, β, δ, and γ, corresponding to catalytic subunits included therein.
PI3Kα and β are widely present in a biological body and deficiency of PI3Kα and β in mice has been reported to be fetally lethal in both cases (“The Journal of Biological Chemistry”, 1999, Vol. 274, p. 10963-10968; and “Mammalian Genome”, 2002, Vol. 13, p. 169-172). As a result of studies using subtype selective compounds, it has been reported that PI3Kα plays an important role in insulin signaling and a PI3Kα inhibitor causes insulin resistance (“Cell”, 2006, Vol. 125, p. 733-747). Further, it has been reported that PI3Kβ is involved in platelet aggregation and a PI3Kβ inhibitor has an antithrombotic effect (“Nature Medicine”, 2005, Vol. 11, p. 507-514). On the other hand, mice deficient in PI3Kβ or γ are all born normally, and no problems concerning growth, life span, reproduction, or the like have been found (“Science”, 2000, Vol. 287, p. 1040-1046; and “Molecular and Cellular Biology”, 2002, Vol. 22, p. 8580-8591). In particular, expression of PI3Kδ is significantly limited to hemocytes and lymphoid tissues, and mice deficient in PI3Kδ have been found to have significant damage in activation of lymphocytes. A close relationship between the activation of lymphocytes and immunity/inflammation is well known, and compounds selectively inhibiting PI3Kδ have a potential to be immunity/inflammatory inhibitors having both a potent inhibitory action on the activation of lymphocytes and safety.
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a kind of cytokine which is mainly produced from activated T cells. IL-2 induces proliferation and activation of lymphocytes via an IL-2 receptor which is a receptor for IL-2. IL-2 is a very important molecule in signaling the activation of an immune system, and its production inhibitors (for example, Tacrolimus and Cyclosporin A) have been used clinically as immunosuppressing agents. In addition, anti-IL-2 receptor monoclonal antibodies such as Basiliximab and Daclizumab have been used clinically as immunosuppressing agent.
B cells are one of the main subsets of lymphocytes, along with T cells, and are cells which is a main actor of humoral immunity. It is known that humoral immunity plays an extremely important role in preventing infection from pathogens or the like, but in autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and the like, abnormal activation of humoral immunity occurs, which is deeply involved in the pathogenesis. In fact, an anti-CD20 antibody, Rituximab, has been used clinically as a drug for treating rheumatoid arthritis.
As the compound having a PI3K inhibitory action, for example, the compounds of the formula (A-1) (Patent Document 1), the formula (A-2) (Patent Document 2), the formula (A-3) (Patent Document 3), the formula (B-1) (Patent Document 4), the formula (B-2) (Patent Document 5), the formula (B-3) (Patent Document 6), the formula (C) (Patent Document 7), the formula (D-1) (Patent Document 8), the formula (D-2) (Patent Document 9), the formula (E-1) (Patent Document 10), the formula (E-2) (Patent Document 11), the formula (E-3) (Patent Document 12), the formula (F) (Patent Document 13), the formula (G) (Patent Document 14), the formula (H) (Patent Document 15 and Non-Patent Document 1), the formula (J) (Patent Document 16), and the formula (K) (Patent Document 17) described below have been reported. However, the compound of the formula (I) of the present application as described later is different in the structure of the group R1 of the formula (I) from the compounds of the formulae (A-1) to (E-3), (H), and (K). It is different in structure from the compounds of the formulae (F) and (G), in that it has a benzimidazolyl-1-yl group. As the group R2 of the formula (J), a heteroaryl group has been disclosed, but there is no specific disclosure of the benzimidazolyl-1-yl group, and there is no disclosure of the compound of the formula (I) of the present invention in Patent Document 16. Further, there is no description of a PI3Kδ selective inhibitory action in any documents.
(wherein R2 in the formulae (A-1) to (E-3) represents a difluoromethyl group or the like. R1 and R2 in the formula (F) are combined with each other to form an unsubstituted or substituted morpholino group, together with N to which they are bonded, X represents a bond or the like, and R3 represents an unsubstituted or substituted indolyl group. R2 in the formula (G) represents a substituted indol-4-yl group at the position 5 or 6.

In the formula (J), Y1 and Y2 represent N, CH, or the like, X represents NR4CR6R7 or the like, R1 represents a heterocyclic group or the like, and R2 represents a heteroaryl group or the like. In the formula (K), X, Y, and Z represent N or CH, provided that at least two of X, Y, and Z represent N, R1 represents heteroaryl or the like, R2 represents a heterocycle or the like, Q represents a bond, azetidinylen-4-amino, or the like, T represents —C(O)—, —C(═S)—, or —S(O)2—, and R5 represents halogen or —O—S(O)2—R7. For the other symbols, reference may be made to the publication.)
It has been reported that the compounds of the formula (L-1) (Patent Document 18), the formula (L-2) (Patent Document 19), the formula (L-3) (Patent Document 20), the formula (L-4) (Patent Document 21), and the formula (L-5) (Patent Document 22) described below have an anti-tumor activity. Further, in Non-Patent Document 2, it has been suggested that a secondary amine compound of the formula (M) has an Lck inhibitory action and an IL-2 production inhibitory action, and is applied for autoimmune diseases and rejection reaction in organ transplantation. However, the compound of the formula (I) of the present invention essentially has a difluoromethyl group, which is different in the structure from the compounds of the formulae (L-1), (L-2), and (M). It is also different in the structure of the group of R1 of the formula (I) from the compounds of the formulae (L-3) and (L-5). In addition, it is different in the structure of the substituent on a benzimidazole ring from the compound of the formulae (L-4). Further, there is no description of a PI3Kδ selective inhibitory action in any literature.
(in the formula (L-1), both of X and Y represent N, or one of X and Y represents N and the other represents CR7, and R6 represents H or C1-6 alkyl; in the formula (L-2), both of X and Y represent N, or one of X and Y represents N and the other represents CR3, and R1 represents a morpholino group or the like; in the formula (L-3), X represents N or CH, R1 represents CHnF3-n (n is 1 or 2), and R2 represents morpholino which may be substituted, or the like; in the formula (L-4), X represents N or CH, and R1 represents halogen or a hydroxyl group; in the formula (L-5), X represents N or CH, R1 represents a morpholino group which may be substituted with 1 to 4 C1-6 alkyl groups, and Y represents C1-6 alkyl; and in the formula (M), R1 represents a morpholino group or the like.

Furthermore, a quinazolin-4-one derivative (Patent Documents 23 to 25) has been reported as a PI3Kδ selective inhibitor, and its usability in inflammation, immune diseases, or hematologic tumors (leukemia and the like) is indicated. As other PI3Kδ selective inhibitors, a thiazolylurea derivative (Patent Document 26) has been reported together with its usability in inflammation, immune diseases, or the like.
Furthermore, the invention relating to a triazine or pyrimidine derivative having a PI3Kδ selective inhibitory action, which is an invention in the prior art by the present inventors, has been disclosed after the priority date of the present application (Patent Document 27). The compound of the present invention is different in the structure of the group R1 in the formula (I) from the compound disclosed in the prior application.

The present inventors have extensively studied a PI3Kδ selective inhibitory action and/or an IL-2 production inhibitory action and/or a B cell proliferation inhibitory action (including an activation inhibitory action), and as a result, they have found that a novel triazine or pyrimidine derivative has an excellent PI3Kδ selective inhibitory action and/or IL-2 production inhibitory action and/or B cell proliferation inhibitory action (including an activation inhibitory action), and can be an agent for preventing and/or treating rejection reactions in various organ transplantations, allergy diseases, autoimmune diseases, and hematologic tumor, thereby completing the present invention.

EDTA and biotinylated phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate were added thereto to stop the reaction. Thereafter, a Europium labeled anti-GST antibody, a GST bond GRP1 PH domain, and streptavidin-APC were added thereto, followed by incubation overnight. An HTRF ratio was measured using an HTRF plate reader. The IC50 value of the compound was calculated, taking the inhibition rate without addition of the enzyme as 100% and the inhibition rate without addition of the test compound and with addition of an enzyme as 0%, by means of a logistic method.

After the reaction, 10 μL of a Kinase-Glo Plus reagent (Promega, Catalogue No. V3772) was added thereto, and a luminescence was measured with a luminometer. The IC50 value of the compound was calculated, taking the inhibition rate without addition of the enzyme as 100% and the inhibition rate without addition of the test compound as 0%, by a logistic method.
The results of the IC50 values (nM) of several representative compounds are shown in Table 1. In the Table, Ex represents Example Compound No. as described later of the test compounds.
3. Rat In Vivo IL-2 Production Inhibition Test
For the experiment, male LEW/CrlCrlj rats (Charles River Laboratories, Japan, Inc.) (6-week old, body weight 130 to 180 g) were used. The test compound was suspended in a 0.5% methyl cellulose solution and orally administered at 5 mL/kg. IL-2 production was induced by tail vein injection of Concanavalin A (Funakoshi Corporation, Catalogue No. L-1000) at a dose of 15 mg/kg.
The test was carried out according to the protocol shown below. At 2 hours or 16 hours before administration of Concanavalin A, the test compound was orally administered to rats. At 3 hours after administration of Concanavalin A, blood was collected. The IL-2 concentration in blood was quantified using an ELISA kit (R&D Systems, Inc., Catalogue No. DY502E). An inhibition rate was calculated from the amount of IL-2 produced in a group administered with the test compound with respect to the amount of the IL-2 produced in a control group administered with a vehicle.
As a result, it was confirmed that when the test compounds (10 mg/kg) were administered, for example, 2 hours before the administration of Concanavalin A, the several representative compounds of Examples 10, 29, 33, 34, 37, 43-1, and A4 exhibited inhibitory activities of 77%, 51%, 75%, 72%, 81%, 73%, and 58%, respectively, and had excellent IL-2 production inhibitory activities.

Cells were harvested in a GF/C glass filter using a cell harvester, and a radioactivity on the filter was measured using a liquid scintillation counter. The IC50 value of the compound was calculated, taking the dpm (disintegration per minute) without addition of IgM as an inhibition rate of 100% and the dpm without addition of the test compound as an inhibition rate of 0%, by a logistic method.
The results of several representative compounds are shown in Table 2.
As shown in the tests above, it was confirmed that several representative compounds have excellent PI3Kδ selective inhibitory action, and/or IL-2 production inhibitory action, and/or B cell proliferation inhibitory action (including an activation inhibitory action). Accordingly, the compound of the formula (I) can be used as an agent for preventing or treating rejection reactions in various organ transplantations, allergy diseases, autoimmune diseases, and/or hematologic tumor.
Furthermore, since the compound of the formula (I) is a PI3Kδ inhibitor having a significantly potent PI3Kδ inhibitory action than a PI3Kα inhibitory action, it can be an excellent immunosuppressing agent which does not cause insulin resistance based on the PI3Kα inhibitory action.
The various types of organs include the kidney, liver, and heart. The rejection reaction in organ transplantation involves chronic rejection and acute rejection, and its mechanism is largely classified into antibody-related rejection and T cell-related rejection. The compound of the formula (I) or a salt thereof is useful particularly as an agent for preventing and/or treating antibody-related rejection.

Administration can be accomplished either by oral administration via tablets, pills, capsules, granules, powders, solutions, or the like, or parenteral administration, such as use of injections such as intraarticular, intravenous, and intramuscular injections, suppositories, eye drops, eye ointments, transdermal liquid preparations, ointments, transdermal patches, transmucosal liquid preparations, transmucosal patches, inhalers, and the like.
The solid composition for use in the oral administration is used in the form of tablets, powders, granules, or the like. In such a solid composition, one or more active ingredient(s) are mixed with at least one inactive excipient such as lactose, mannitol, glucose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and/or magnesium aluminometasilicate. In an ordinary method, the composition may contain inactive additives, such as a lubricant such as magnesium stearate, a disintegrating agent such as sodium carboxymethyl starch, a stabilizer, or a solubilization assisting agent. If necessary, tablets or pills may be coated with sugar or a film of a gastric-soluble or enteric coating substance.

In addition to the inert diluent, the liquid composition may also contain auxiliary agents such as a solubilization assisting agent, a moistening agent, and a suspending agent, sweeteners, flavors, aromatics, or antiseptics.
The injections for parenteral administration include sterile aqueous or non-aqueous solutions, suspensions and emulsions. The aqueous solvent includes, for example, distilled water for injection and physiological saline. Examples of the non-aqueous solvent include propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, plant oils such as olive oil, alcohols such as ethanol, Polysorbate 80 (Japanese Pharmacopeia), and the like. Such a composition may further contain a tonicity agent, an antiseptic, a moistening agent, an emulsifying agent, a dispersing agent, a stabilizer, or a solubilizing assisting agent. These are sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacteria retaining filter, blending of a bactericide, or irradiation. In addition, these can also be used by preparing a sterile solid composition, and dissolving or suspending it in sterile water or a sterile solvent for injection prior to its use.
The agent for external use includes ointments, plasters, creams, jellies, poultices, sprays, lotions, eye drops, and eye ointments. The agents contain generally used ointment bases, lotion bases, aqueous or non-aqueous liquid preparations, suspensions, and emulsions. Examples of the ointment bases or the lotion bases include polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, white vaseline, bleached beeswax, polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil, glyceryl monostearate, stearyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, lauromacrogol, and sorbitan sesquioleate.
As the transmucosal agents such as an inhaler and a transnasal agent, those in the form of a solid, liquid, or semi-solid state are used, and can be prepared in accordance with a conventionally known method. For example, a known excipient, and also a pH adjusting agent, an antiseptic, a surfactant, a lubricant, a stabilizer, a thickening agent, or the like may be appropriately added thereto. For their administration, an appropriate device for inhalation or blowing can be used. For example, a compound may be administered alone or as a powder of formulated mixture, or as a solution or suspension in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, using a known device or sprayer, such as a measured administration inhalation device. A dry powder inhaler or the like may be for single or multiple administration use, and a dry powder or a powder-containing capsule may be used. Alternatively, this may be in a form such as a pressurized aerosol spray which uses an appropriate propellant, for example, a suitable gas such as chlorofluoroalkane, hydrofluoroalkane, and carbon dioxide.
Typically, in oral administration, the daily dose is appropriately from about 0.001 to 100 mg/kg, preferably from 0.1 to 30 mg/kg, and more preferably 0.1 to 10 mg/kg, per body weight, administered in one portion or in 2 to 4 separate portions. In the case of intravenous administration, the daily dose is suitably administered from about 0.0001 to 10 mg/kg per body weight, once a day or two or more times a day. In addition, a transmucosal agent is administered at a dose from about 0.001 to 100 mg/kg per body weight, once a day or two or more times a day. The dose is appropriately decided in response to the individual case by taking the symptoms, the age, and the gender, and the like into consideration.
