The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I), wherein R1 to R3, A and Q are as described herein, and their pharmaceutically acceptable salt, enantiomer or diastereomer thereof, and compositions including the compounds and methods of using the compounds.
Description

The present invention relates to organic compounds useful for therapy and/or prophylaxis in a mammal, and in particular to antagonist of TLR7 and/or TLR8 and/or TLR9 useful for treating systemic lupus erythematosus or lupus nephritis.


FIELD OF THE INVENTION

Autoimmune connective tissue disease (CTD) include prototypical autoimmune syndromes such as Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSjS), mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD), Dermatomyositis/Polymyositis (DM/PM), Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), and systemic sclerosis (SSc). With the exception of RA, no really effective and safe therapies are available to patients. SLE represents the prototypical CTD with a prevalence of 20-150 per 100,000 and causes broad inflammation and tissue damage in distinct organs, from commonly observed symptoms in the skin and joints to renal, lung, or heart failure. Traditionally, SLE has been treated with nonspecific anti-inflammatory or immunosuppressive drugs. However, long term usage of immunosuppressive drug, e.g. corticosteroids is only partially effective, and is associated with undesirable toxicity and side effects. Belimumab is the only FDA-approved drug for lupus in the last 50 years, despite its modest and delayed efficacy in only a fraction of SLE patients (Navarra, S. V. et al Lancet 2011, 377, 721.). Other biologics, such as anti-CD20 mAbs, mAbs against or soluble receptors of specific cytokines, have failed in most clinical studies. Thus, novel therapies are required that provide sustained improvement in a greater proportion of patient groups and are safer for chronic use in many autoimmune as well as auto-inflammation diseases.


Toll Like Receptors (TLR) are an important family of pattern recognition receptors (PRR) which can initiate broad immune responses in a wide variety of immune cells. As natural host defense sensors, endosomal TLRs 7, 8 and 9 recognize nucleic acids derived from viruses, bacteria; specifically, TLR7/8 and TLR9 recognize single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) and single-stranded CpG-DNA, respectively. However, aberrant nucleic acid sensing of TRL7,8,9 is considered as a key node in a broad of autoimmune and auto-inflammatory diseases (Krieg, A. M. et al. Immunol. Rev. 2007, 220, 251. Jimenez-Dalmaroni, M. J. et al Autoimmun Rev. 2016, 15, 1. Chen, J. Q., et al. Clinical Reviews in Allergy & Immunology 2016, 50, 1.). Anti-RNA and anti-DNA antibodies are well established diagnostic markers of SLE, and these antibodies can deliver both self-RNA and self-DNA to endosomes. While self-RNA complexes can be recognized by TLR7 and TLR8, self-DNA complexes can trigger TLR9 activation. Indeed, defective clearance of self-RNA and self-DNA from blood and/or tissues is evident in SLE (Systemic Lupus Erythematosus) patients. TLR7 and TLR9 have been reported to be upregulated in SLE tissues, and correlate with chronicity and activity of lupus nephritis, respectively. In B cells of SLE patients, TLR7 expression correlates with anti-RNP antibody production, while TLR9 expression with IL-6 and anti-dsDNA antibody levels. Consistently, in lupus mouse models, TLR7 is required for anti-RNA antibodies, and TLR9 is required for anti-nucleosome antibody. On the other hand, overexpression of TLR7 or human TLR8 in mice promotes autoimmunity and autoinflammation. Moreover, activation of TLR8 specifically contributes to inflammatory cytokine secretion of mDC/macrophages, neutrophil NETosis, induction of Th17 cells, and suppression of Treg cells. In addition to the described role of TLR9 in promoting autoantibody production of B cells, activation of TLR9 by self-DNA in pDC also leads to induction of type I IFNs and other inflammatory cytokines. Given these roles of TLR9 in both pDC and B cells, both as key contributors to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases, and the extensive presence of self-DNA complexes that could readily activate TLR9 in many patients with autoimmune diseases, it may have extra benefit to further block self-DNA mediated TLR9 pathways on top of inhibition of TLR7 and TLR8 pathways. Taken together, TLR7, 8, and 9 pathways represent new therapeutic targets for the treatment of autoimmune and auto-inflammatory diseases, for which no effective steroid-free and non-cytotoxic oral drugs exist, and inhibition of all these pathways from the very upstream may deliver satisfying therapeutic effects. As such, we invented oral compounds that target and suppress TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9 for the treatment of autoimmune and auto-inflammatory diseases.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Definitions

The term “C1-6alkyl” denotes a saturated, linear or branched chain alkyl group containing 1 to 6, particularly 1 to 4 carbon atoms, for example methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl and the like. Particular “C1-6alkyl” groups are methyl, ethyl and n-propyl.


The term “halogen” and “halo” are used interchangeably herein and denote fluoro, chloro, bromo, or iodo.


The letter “D” shown in the molecular structure denotes “deuterium”.


The term “haloC1-6alkyl” denotes an alkyl group wherein at least one of the hydrogen atoms of the alkyl group has been replaced by same or different halogen atoms, particularly fluoro atoms. Examples of haloC1-6alkyl include monofluoro-, difluoro- or trifluoro-methyl, -ethyl or -propyl, for example 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl, 2-fluoroethyl, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl, fluoromethyl, difluoromethyl, trifluoromethyl and trifluoroethyl.


The term “halopyrrolidinyl” denotes a pyrrolidinyl substituted once, twice or three times by halogen. Examples of halopyrrolidinyl include, but not limited to, fluoropyrrolidinyl and difluoropyrrolidinyl.


The term “halopiperidinyl” denotes a piperidinyl substituted once, twice or three times by halogen. Examples of halopiperidinyl include, but not limited to, fluoropiperidinyl and difluoropiperidinyl.


The term “LG” denotes a leaving group, which is a molecular fragment that departs with a pair of electrons in heterolytic bond cleavage. Leaving groups can be anions or neutral molecules, but in either case it is crucial that the leaving group be able to stabilize the additional electron density that results from bond heterolysis. Common anionic leaving groups are halides, and sulfonate esters such as OTf, OTs and OMs.


The term “PG” denotes a protecting group, which is introduced into a molecule by chemical modification of a functional group to obtain chemoselectivity in a subsequent chemical reaction. Typical protecting groups are Boc, Cbz and Bn.


The term “cis-isomers” and “trans-isomers” denote the relative stereochemistry of the molecule or moiety. For example: tert-butyl N-(cis-5-fluoropiperidin-3-yl)carbamate

The way of showing relative stereochemistry also applies to the final compound.


The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salts” denotes salts which are not biologically or otherwise undesirable. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include both acid and base addition salts.


The term “pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt” denotes those pharmaceutically acceptable salts formed with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, carbonic acid, phosphoric acid, and organic acids selected from aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic, araliphatic, heterocyclic, carboxylic, and sulfonic classes of organic acids such as formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, gluconic acid, lactic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, malic acid, maleic acid, maloneic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, aspartic acid, ascorbic acid, glutamic acid, anthranilic acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, embonic acid, phenylacetic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, and salicyclic acid.


The term “pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salt” denotes those pharmaceutically acceptable salts formed with an organic or inorganic base. Examples of acceptable inorganic bases include sodium, potassium, ammonium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, and aluminum salts. Salts derived from pharmaceutically acceptable organic nontoxic bases includes salts of primary, secondary, and tertiary amines, substituted amines including naturally occurring substituted amines, cyclic amines and basic ion exchange resins, such as isopropylamine, trimethylamine, diethylamine, triethylamine, tripropylamine, ethanolamine, 2-diethylaminoethanol, trimethamine, dicyclohexylamine, lysine, arginine, histidine, caffeine, procaine, hydrabamine, choline, betaine, ethylenediamine, glucosamine, methylglucamine, theobromine, purines, piperizine, piperidine, N-ethylpiperidine, and polyamine resins.


The term “A pharmaceutically active metabolite” denotes a pharmacologically active product produced through metabolism in the body of a specified compound or salt thereof. After entry into the body, most drugs are substrates for chemical reactions that may change their physical properties and biologic effects. These metabolic conversions, which usually affect the polarity of the compounds of the invention, alter the way in which drugs are distributed in and excreted from the body. However, in some cases, metabolism of a drug is required for therapeutic effect.


The term “therapeutically effective amount” denotes an amount of a compound or molecule of the present invention that, when administered to a subject, (i) treats or prevents the particular disease, condition or disorder, (ii) attenuates, ameliorates or eliminates one or more symptoms of the particular disease, condition, or disorder, or (iii) prevents or delays the onset of one or more symptoms of the particular disease, condition or disorder described herein. The therapeutically effective amount will vary depending on the compound, the disease state being treated, the severity of the disease treated, the age and relative health of the subject, the route and form of administration, the judgement of the attending medical or veterinary practitioner, and other factors.


The term “pharmaceutical composition” denotes a mixture or solution comprising a therapeutically effective amount of an active pharmaceutical ingredient together with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients to be administered to a mammal, e.g., a human in need thereof.

Compounds in Table 1 are all characterized with an aromatic ring at the terminal position (phenyl or pyridinyl). However, according to the potency data disclosed, only some of the compounds in Table 1 showed good TLR7 potency, and all of which were lack of TLR9 potency. More examples disclosed in US20150105370 with same structural characteristics confirmed such trend, which suggests the terminal aryl/heteroaryl ring is not favorable for TLR9 activity.


Meanwhile, more analogues of the compounds disclosed in US20150105370, such as compound R1, compound R2 which bear some substituents on the terminal aryl ring, were synthesized to confirm the SAR (structure-activity-relationship). But the potency of compound R1 and R2 shown in Table 2 suggested that the substituents on the terminal aryl ring may not necessarily improve the potency of TLR9. Therefore, the skill of the art shall not obtain any incitation from the information disclosed in US20150105370 to further optimize such chemical structures.


Surprisingly, the compounds of this invention significantly improved TLR9 potency (>8 folds compared to ER-888286) while keeping excellent TLR7 and TLR8 potency. In another embodiment, hERG profile and safety ratio were greatly improved as compared with reference compounds from US20150105370 and reference compounds R1 and R2 synthesized herein (see table 3). The compounds of formula (I) or (Ia) also showed good hPBMC, cytotoxicity, solubility, human microsome stability and SDPK profiles, as well as low CYP inhibition.

After the reaction mixture was stirred at r.t. for another hour, 2-aminoethyl hydrogen sulfate (compound 186d, 7.56 g, 53.5 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was heated at 45° C. for 2 hours and diluted with toluene (23 mL), then NaOH (3.37 g, 84.3 mmol) was added. After being stirred at 65° C. overnight, the reaction mixture was cooled down and diluted with water, extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (EA/PE from 20% to 80%) to afford compound 186e (1.1 g). MS: calc'd 256 (MH+), measured 256 (MH+).


Step 3: preparation of tert-butyl (2R)-2-[(4-bromophenyl)methyl]morpholine-4-carboxylate (Compound 186a)

(2R)-2-[(4-bromophenyl)methyl]morpholine (compound 186e, 1.042 g, 4.07 mmol) was dissolved in DCM (10 mL). Then di-tert-butyl dicarbonate (1.07 g, 4.88 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at rt for 1 hour. After the reaction mixture was concentrated, the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (EA/PE from 20% to 80%) to afford compound 186a (1.4 g). MS: calc'd 356 (MH+), measured 356 (MH+).


Example 187

The following tests were carried out in order to determine the activity of the compounds of formula (I) and (Ia) in HEK293-Blue-hTLR-7/8/9 cells assay.


HEK293-Blue-hTLR-7 Cells Assay:


A stable HEK293-Blue-hTLR-7 cell line was purchased from InvivoGen (Cat. #: hkb-ht1r7, San Diego, Calif., USA). These cells were originally designed for studying the stimulation of human TLR7 by monitoring the activation of NF-κB. A SEAP (secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase) reporter gene was placed under the control of the IFN-β minimal promoter fused to five NF-κB and AP-1-binding sites. The SEAP was induced by activating NF-κB and AP-1 via stimulating HEK-Blue hTLR7 cells with TLR7 ligands. Therefore the reporter expression was declined by TLR7 antagonist under the stimulation of a ligand, such as R848 (Resiquimod), for incubation of 20 hrs. The cell culture supernatant SEAP reporter activity was determined using QUANTI-Blue™ kit (Cat. #: rep-qb1, Invivogen, San Diego, Ca, USA) at a wavelength of 640 nm, a detection medium that turns purple or blue in the presence of alkaline phosphatase.


HEK293-Blue-hTLR7 cells were incubated at a density of 250,000450,000 cells/mL in a volume of 170 μL in a 96-well plate in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) containing 4.5 g/L glucose, 50 U/mL penicillin, 50 mg/mL streptomycin, 100 mg/mL Normocin, 2 mM L-glutamine, 10% (v/v) heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum with addition of 20 μL test compound in a serial dilution in the presence of final DMSO at 1% and 10 μL of 20 uM R848 in above DMEM, perform incubation under 37° C. in a CO2 incubator for 20 hrs. Then 20 μL of the supernatant from each well was incubated with 180 μL Quanti-blue substrate solution at 37° C. for 2 hrs and the absorbance was read at 620˜655 nm using a spectrophotometer. The signaling pathway that TLR7 activation leads to downstream NF-κB activation has been widely accepted, and therefore similar reporter assay was modified for evaluating TLR7 antagonist.


HEK293-Blue-hTLR-8 Cells Assay:


A stable HEK293-Blue-hTLR-8 cell line was purchased from InvivoGen (Cat. #: hkb-ht1r8, San Diego, Calif., USA). These cells were originally designed for studying the stimulation of human TLR8 by monitoring the activation of NF-κB. A SEAP (secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase) reporter gene was placed under the control of the IFN-β minimal promoter fused to five NF-κB and AP-1-binding sites. The SEAP was induced by activating NF-κB and AP-1 via stimulating HEK-Blue hTLR8 cells with TLR8 ligands. Therefore the reporter expression was declined by TLR8 antagonist under the stimulation of a ligand, such as R848, for incubation of 20 hrs. The cell culture supernatant SEAP reporter activity was determined using QUANTI-Blue™ kit (Cat. #: rep-qb1, Invivogen, San Diego, Ca, USA) at a wavelength of 640 nm, a detection medium that turns purple or blue in the presence of alkaline phosphatase.


HEK293-Blue-hTLR8 cells were incubated at a density of 250,000˜450,000 cells/mL in a volume of 170 μL in a 96-well plate in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) containing 4.5 g/L glucose, 50 U/mL penicillin, 50 mg/mL streptomycin, 100 mg/mL Normocin, 2 mM L-glutamine, 10% (v/v) heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum with addition of 20 μL test compound in a serial dilution in the presence of final DMSO at 1% and 10 μL of 60 uM R848 in above DMEM, perform incubation under 37° C. in a CO2 incubator for 20 hrs. Then 20 μL of the supernatant from each well was incubated with 180 μL Quanti-blue substrate solution at 37° C. for 2 hrs and the absorbance was read at 620˜655 nm using a spectrophotometer. The signaling pathway that TLR8 activation leads to downstream NF-κB activation has been widely accepted, and therefore similar reporter assay was modified for evaluating TLR8 antagonist.


HEK293-Blue-hTLR-9 Cells Assay:


A stable HEK293-Blue-hTLR-9 cell line was purchased from InvivoGen (Cat. #: hkb-htlr9, San Diego, Calif., USA). These cells were originally designed for studying the stimulation of human TLR9 by monitoring the activation of NF-κB. A SEAP (secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase) reporter gene was placed under the control of the IFN-β minimal promoter fused to five NF-κB and AP-1-binding sites. The SEAP was induced by activating NF-κB and AP-1 via stimulating HEK-Blue hTLR9 cells with TLR9 ligands. Therefore the reporter expression was declined by TLR9 antagonist under the stimulation of a ligand, such as ODN2006 (Cat. #: tlrl-2006-1, Invivogen, San Diego, Calif., USA), for incubation of 20 hrs. The cell culture supernatant SEAP reporter activity was determined using QUANTI-Blue™ kit (Cat. #: rep-qb1, Invivogen, San Diego, Calif., USA) at a wavelength of 640 nm, a detection medium that turns purple or blue in the presence of alkaline phosphatase.


HEK293-Blue-hTLR9 cells were incubated at a density of 250,000˜450,000 cells/mL in a volume of 170 μL in a 96-well plate in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) containing 4.5 g/L glucose, 50 U/mL penicillin, 50 mg/mL streptomycin, 100 mg/mL Normocin, 2 mM L-glutamine, 10% (v/v) heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum with addition of 20 μL test compound in a serial dilution in the presence of final DMSO at 1% and 10 μL of 20 uM ODN2006 in above DMEM, perform incubation under 37° C. in a CO2 incubator for 20 hrs. Then 20 μL of the supernatant from each well was incubated with 180 μL Quanti-blue substrate solution at 37° C. for 2 h and the absorbance was read at 620-655 nm using a spectrophotometer. The signaling pathway that TLR9 activation leads to downstream NF-κB activation has been widely accepted, and therefore similar reporter assay was modified for evaluating TLR9 antagonist.

Example 188

hERG Channel Inhibition Assay:


The hERG channel inhibition assay is a highly sensitive measurement that identifies compounds exhibiting hERG inhibition related to cardiotoxicity in vivo. The hERG K+ channels were cloned in humans and stably expressed in a CHO (Chinese hamster ovary) cell line. CHOhERG cells were used for patch-clamp (voltage-clamp, whole-cell) experiments. Cells were stimulated by a voltage pattern to activate hERG channels and conduct IKhERG currents (rapid delayed outward rectifier potassium current of the hERG channel). After the cells were stabilized for a few minutes, the amplitude and kinetics of IKhERG were recorded at a stimulation frequency of 0.1 Hz, (6 bpm). Thereafter, the test compound was added to the preparation at increasing concentrations. For each concentration, an attempt was made to reach a steady-state effect, usually, this was achieved within 3-10 min at which time the next highest concentration was applied. The amplitude and kinetics of IKhERG are recorded in each concentration of the drug which were compared to the control values (taken as 100%).

Results of hERG are given in Table 3. A safety ratio (hERG IC20/EC50)>30 suggests a sufficient window to differentiate the pharmacology by inhibiting TLR7/8/9 pathways from the potential hERG related cardiotoxicity. According to the calculation of hERG IC20/TLR7/8/9 IC50 below which serves as early selectivity index to assess hERG liability, obviously reference compounds ER-887258, ER-888285, ER-888286, R1 and R2 have much narrower safety window compared to the compounds of this invention.

Procedure

10 mM DMSO stock solutions of test compounds were diluted in DMSO to generate 2 mM intermediate stock solution. 250 nL, of intermediate stock solution were transferred in duplicate into 3 separate 384 well microtitre plates (assay-ready plates). A mixture of HLM and each substrate was made up. 45 μL of HLM substrate mix was then transferred to each well of an assay ready plate and mixed. The negative (solvent) and positive controls (standard inhibitor for each CYP) were included in each assay ready plate. The assay ready plate was warmed to 37° C. in an incubator over 10 minutes. 5 μL pre-warmed NADPH regenerating system was added to each incubation well to start the reaction. Final incubation volume was 50 μL. The assay plate then was placed back in the 37° C. incubator. After incubation (10 minutes for CYP2D6) for 5 minutes, incubates were quenched by addition of 50 μL 100% acetonitrile containing internal standards (400 ng/mL 13C6-4′-OH-Diclofenac, 20 ng/mL D3-Dextrorphan and 20 ng/mL D4-1′OH-Midazolam). The supernatants were collected for RapidFire/MS/MS analysis.


RapidFire online solid phase extraction/sample injection system (Agilent) coupled with API4000 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (AB Sciex) were used for sample analysis. The mobile phase composed of acetonitrile and water supplemented with 0.1% formic acid. A C4 solid phase extraction cartridge is used for sample separation. MS detection is achieved in positive ion MRM mode.


Data Analysis

Peak areas for substrate, metabolite and internal standard are determined using the RapidFire integrator software (version 3.6.12009.12296). Peak area ratios (PAR) of metabolite and internal standard (stable-labelled metabolite) are then calculated. The measurement window for each experiment is then defined:


PAR (0% activity)=average PAR for all incubations containing concentrated inhibitor;


Par (100% activity)=average PAR for all incubations containing no inhibitor (DMSO controls);


% Activity (test inhibitor)=[PAR (test inhibitor)−PAR (0% activity)]/[PAR (100% activity)−PAR (0% activity)];


% Inhibition (test inhibitor)=100-% Activity (test inhibitor).


The compounds of present invention were found to have low CYP inhibition for CYP2D6 determined in the assays described above.
