HIV integrase inhibitors

Abstract

The present invention relates to a series of pyrimidine compounds of Formula I which inhibit HIV integrase and to pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment for AIDS or ARC using these compounds. 1

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] HIV expresses three enzymes, reverse transcriptase, an aspartyl protease and integrase, all of which are potential antiviral targets for the development of drugs for the treatment of AIDS. However, integrase stands out as being the only viral enzyme not targeted by current therapy. The integrase enzyme is responsible for insertion of the viral cDNA into the host cell genome, which is a critical step in the viral life cycle. There are a number of discrete steps involved in this process including processing of the viral cDNA by removal of two bases from each 3′-terminus and joining of the recessed ends to the host DNA. Studies have shown that in the absence of a functional integrase enzyme HIV is not infectious. (Lafemina, R. L.; Schneider, C. L.; Robbins, H. L.; Callahan, P. L.; LeGrow, K.; Roth, E.; Emini, E. A. J. Virol. 1992, 66, 7414-7419 and Englund, G.; Theodore, T. S.; Freed, E.; Engelman, A.; Martin, M. A. J. Virol. 1995, 69, 3216-3219) Therefore, an inhibitor of integrase would be useful as a therapy for AIDS and HIV infection.

[0003] Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has been identified as the etiological agent responsible for acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), a fatal disease characterized by destruction of the immune system and the inability to fight off life threatening opportunistic infections. Recent statistics (UNAIDS: Report on the Global HIV/AIDS Epidemic, December 1998), indicate that as many as 33 million people worldwide are infected with the virus. In addition to the large number of individuals already infected, the virus continues to spread. Estimates from 1998 point to close to 6 million new infections in that year alone. In the same year there were approximately 2.5 million deaths associated with HIV and AIDS.

[0004] There are currently a number of antiviral drugs available to combat the infection. These drugs can be divided into three classes based on the viral protein they target and their mode of action. In particular, saquinavir, indinavir, ritonavir, nelfinavir and amprenavir are competitive inhibitors of the aspartyl protease expressed by HIV. Zidovudine, didanosine, stavudine, lamivudine, zalcitabine and abacavir are nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors that behave as substrate mimics to halt viral cDNA synthesis. The non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, nevaripine, delavirdine and efavirenz inhibit the synthesis of viral cDNA via a non-competitive (or uncompetitive) mechanism. Used alone these drugs are effective in reducing viral replication. The effect is only temporary as the virus readily develops resistance to all known agents. However, combination therapy has proven very effective at both reducing virus and suppressing the emergence of resistance in a number of patients. In the US, where combination therapy is widely available, the number of HIV-related deaths has declined (Palella, F. J.; Delany, K. M.; Moorman, A. C.; Loveless, M. O.; Furher, J.; Satten, G. A.; Aschman, D. J.; Holmberg, S. D. N. Engl. J. Med. 1998, 338, 853-860).

[0005] Unfortunately, not all patients are responsive and a large number fail this therapy. In fact, approximately 30-50% of patients ultimately fail combination therapy. Treatment failure in most cases is caused by the emergence of viral resistance. Viral resistance in turn is caused by the rapid turnover of HIV-1 during the course of infection combined with a high viral mutation rate. Under these circumstances incomplete viral suppression caused by insufficient drug potency, poor compliance to the complicated drug regiment as well as intrinsic pharmacological barriers to exposure provides fertile ground for resistance to emerge. More disturbing are recent findings which suggest that low-level replication continues even when viral plasma levels have dropped below detectable levels (<50 copies/ml) (Carpenter, C. C.; Cooper, D. A.; Fischl, M. A.; Gatell, J. M.; Gazzard, B. G.; Hammer, S. M.; Hirsch, M. S.; Jacobsen, D. M.; Katzenstein, D. A.; Montaner, J. S.; Richman, D. D.; Saag, M. S.; Schechter, M.; Schooley, R. T.; Thompson, M. A.; Vella, S.; Yeni, P. G.; Volberding, P. A. JAMA 2000, 283, 381-390). Clearly there is a need for new antiviral agents, preferably targeting other viral enzymes to reduce the rate of resistance and suppress viral replication even further.

[0006] A number of HIV integrase inhibitors have been reported. These include nucleotide-based inhibitors, known DNA binders, catechols and hydrazide containing derivatives (Neamati, N.; Sunder, S.; Pommier, Y., Drug Disc. Today, 1997, 2, 487).

[0007] Certain pyrimidines and pyrimidinones have been disclosed. WO 02/06246 discloses 2-aryl-4,5-dihydroxy-6-carboxypyrimidines as viral polymerase inhibitors which are proposed for use in treating hepatitis C virus infection. Sunderland, C. J; Botta, M.; Aime, S.; and Raymond, K. N. Inorg. Chem. (2001) 40, 6746-6756 discloses the synthesis of 6-carboxamido-5,4-hydroxypyrimidinones as gadolinium chelating agents. This action makes the compounds useful for treating HIV infection and AIDS. The invention also encompasses pharmaceutical compositions and methods for treating those infected with HIV. Nothing in these references teaches or suggests the novel compounds of this invention or their use as HIV integrase inhibitors.

[0135] “Alkyl” and “alkoxy” includes straight and branched saturated hydrocarbon substituents. “Aryl” includes carbocyclic and heterocyclic aromatic substituents.

[0136] The invention includes all pharmaceutically acceptable salt forms of the compounds. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are those in which the counter ions do not contribute significantly to the physiological activity or toxicity of the compounds and as such function as pharmacological equivalents. These salts can be made according to common organic techniques employing commercially available reagents. Some anionic salt forms include acetate, acistrate, besylate, bromide, chloride, citrate, fumarate, glucouronate, hydrobromide, hydrochloride, hydroiodide, iodide, lactate, maleate, mesylate, nitrate, pamoate, phosphate, succinate, sulfate, tartrate, tosylate, and xinofoate. Some cationic salt forms include ammonium, aluminum, benzathine, bismuth, calcium, choline, diethylamine, diethanolamine, lithium, magnesium, meglumine, 4-phenylcyclohexylamine, piperazine, potassium, sodium, tromethamine, and zinc.

[0137] The invention also includes all solvated forms of the compounds, particularly hydrates. Solvates do not contribute significantly to the physiological activity or toxicity of the compounds and as such function as pharmacological equivalents. Solvates may form in stoichiometric amounts or may form from adventitious solvent or a combination of both. One type of solvate is hydrate, and some hydrated forms include monohydrate, hemihydrate, and dihydrate.

[0138] Certain compounds of Formula I may contain one or more chiral centers and exist in different optically active forms. When compounds of Formula I contain one chiral center, the compounds exist in two enantiomeric forms. The present invention includes both enantiomers and mixtures of enantiomers such as racemic mixtures. The enantiomers may be resolved by methods known in the art. Alternatively, specific enantiomers may be synthesized by asymmetric synthesis using reactions known in the art.

[0139] The compounds of this invention can also exist as tautomers, as shown below; therefore the present invention also includes all tautomeric forms. 5

Synthesitic Methods

[0140] General methods useful for the synthesis of the compounds of this invention are shown below. Related compounds can be made by reactions known in the art.

[0141] Synthetic methods for the preparation of pyrimidines similar to those described in the current invention have been published (Gardelli, C. et al PCT Appl. WO 02/06246). The compounds of the present invention can be synthesized according to Scheme I. In Scheme I, aryl nitrile I-1 is reacted with N-hydroxylamine I-2. The intermediate I-3 generated from this reaction can be isolated but more often is reacted in one pot with dialkyl acetylenedicaboxylate I-4 to yield the diesters I-5a or I-5b. The diesters I-5a or I-5b were converted to pyriridine carboxylate I-6 by heating at or above 120° C. in an appropriate solvent. The ester I-6 is condensed with amine I-7 to give the amide I-8. The amide coupling reaction can be carried out under a variety of conditions such as those disclosed in Jerry March, Advanced Organic Chemistry, 3rd edition, John Wiley & Sons, 1985. 6

[0142] In Scheme II, an alternative pathway is shown in which the R6 group is introduced at a later stage of the synthesis. Synthetic methods for the preparation of pyrimidines similar to those described in the current invention have been published (Sunderland, J. S.; et al. Inorg. Chem. (2001), 40, 6756-6756). The compounds of the present invention can be synthesized according to Scheme II. In Scheme II, an oxalic acid diester II-1 is condensed with glycolate II-2 using sodium hydride or a similar base. The intermediate II-3 generated from this reaction can be isolated but more often is reacted in one pot with an appropriately substituted amidine II-4 to yield the pyrimidinone heterocycle II-5. Intermediate II-5 is coupled with amine II-6. Alternatively, the pyrimidinone II-5 is alkylated with a suitable electrophile under basic conditions. Then intermediate II-9 is coupled with amine II-6. The amides, II-8 and II-10 are then treated under conditions appropriate for cleaving the protecting group P. For alkyl groups, where P is alkyl, this can be accomplished by BBr3 or other conditions known in the art. Alternatively, when P is a benzylic or substituted benzylic group the ether can be cleaved under reductive conditions, oxidative conditions or acidic conditions. Protecting groups, R, useful for the synthesis of compounds such as 1-9 can be found in Greene, T. W. and Wutz, P. G. M. Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, Second Edition, 1991, John Wiley and Sons, New York. 78

Pharmaceutical Compositions and Methods of Treatment

[0143] The compounds of this invention inhibit HIV integrase. HIV integrase inhibitors belonging to a class of diketo acid compounds prevented viral integration and inhibited HIV-1 replication in cells (Hazuda et al. Science 2000, 287, 646). Recently, HIV integrase inhibitors have been accepted into clinical trials for treating AIDS and HIV infection (Neamati Expert. Opin. Ther. Patents 2002, 12, 709, Pais and Burke Drugs Fut. 2002, 27, 1101).

[0144] Accordingly, another aspect of the invention is a method for treating HIV infection in a human patient comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

[0145] Another aspect of the invention is a method for treating HIV infection in a human patient comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, with a therapeutically effective amount of at least one other agent used for treatment of AIDS or HIV infection. Some suitable agents are nucleoside HIV reverse transcriptase inhibitors, non-nucleoside HIV reverse transcriptase inhibitors, HIV protease inhibitors, HIV fusion inhibitors, HIV attachment inhibitors, CCR5 inhibitors, CXCR4 inhibitors, HIV budding or maturation inhibitors, and HIV integrase inhibitors.

[0146] Another aspect of the invention is a composition for treating HIV infection in a human patient comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

[0147] “Combination,” “coadministration,” “concurrent,” and similar terms referring to the administration of compounds of Formula I with at least one anti-HIV agent mean that the components are part of a combination antiretroviral therapy or highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) as understood by practitioners in the field of AIDS and HIV infection.

[0148] “Therapeutically effective” means the amount of agent required to provide a meaningful patient benefit as understood by practitioners in the field of AIDS and HIV infection. In general, the goals of treatment are suppression of viral load, restoration and preservation of immunologic function, improved quality of life, and reduction of HIV-related morbidity and mortality.

[0149] “Patient” means a person infected with the HIV virus and suitable for therapy as understood by practitioners in the field of AIDS and HIV infection.

[0150] “Treatment,” “therapy,” “regimen,” “HIV infection,” “ARC,” “AIDS” and related terms are used as understood by practitioners in the field of AIDS and HIV infection.

[0151] The compounds of this invention are generally given as pharmaceutical compositions comprised of a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula I or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and may contain conventional exipients. A therapeutically effective amount is that which is needed to provide a meaningful patient benefit. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are those conventionally known carriers having acceptable safety profiles. Compositions encompass all common solid and liquid forms including capsules, tablets, losenges, and powders as well as liquid suspensions, syrups, elixers, and solutions. Compositions are made using common formulation techniques, and conventional excipients (such as binding and wetting agents) and vehicles (such as water and alcohols) are generally used for compositions.

[0152] Solid compositions are normally formulated in dosage units and compositions providing from about 1 to 1000 mg of the active ingredient per dose are preferred. Some examples of dosages are 1 mg, 10, mg, 100, mg, 250 mg, 500 mg, and 1000 mg. Generally, other antiretroviral agents will be present in a unit range similar to agents of that class used clinically. Typically, this 0.25-1000 mg/unit.

[0153] Liquid compositions are usually in dosage unit ranges. Generally, the liquid composition will be in a unit dosage range of 1-100 mg/mL. Some examples of dosages are 1 mg/mL, 10 mg/mL, 25, mg/mL, 50 mg/mL, and 100 mg/mL. Generally, other antiretroviral agents will be present in a unit range similar to agents of that class used clinically. Typically, this is 1-100 mg/mL.

[0154] The invention encompasses all conventional modes of administration; oral and parenteral methods are preferred. Generally, the dosing regimen will be similar to other antiretroviral agents used clinically. Typically, the daily dose will be 1-100 mg/kg body weight daily. Generally, more compound is required orally and less parenterally. The specific dosing regime, however, will be determined by a physician using sound medical judgement.

[0155] The invention also encompasses methods where the compound is given in combination therapy. That is, the compound can be used in conjunction with, but separately from, other agents useful in treating AIDS and HIV infection. Some of these agents include HIV attachment inhibitors, CCR5 inhibitors, CXCR4 inhibitors, HIV cell fusion inhibitors, HIV integrase inhibitors, HIV nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, HIV non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, HIV protease inhibitors, budding and maturation inhibitors, immunomodulators, and anti-infectives. In these combination methods, Compound 1 will generally be given in a daily dose of 1-100 mg/kg body weight daily in conjunction with other agents. The other agents generally will be given in the amounts used therapeutically. The specific dosing regime, however, will be determined by a physician using sound medical judgement.

[0156] Table 1 lists some agents useful in treating AIDS and HIV infection which are suitable for this invention.

DESCRIPTION OF SPECIFIC EMBODIMENTS

[0157] In the following experimental procedures, all temperatures are understood to be in Centigrade (C) when not specified. The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectral characteristics refer to chemical shifts (δ) expressed in parts per million, (ppm) versus tetramethylsilane (TMS) as reference standard. The relative area reported for the various shifts in the proton NMR spectral data corresponds to the number of hydrogen atoms of a particular functional type in the molecule. The nature of the shifts as to multiplicity is reported as broad singlet (bs or br s), broad doublet (bd or br d), broad triplet (bt or br t), broad quartet (bq or br q), singlet (s), multiplet (m), doublet (d), quartet (q), triplet (t), doublet of doublet (dd), doublet of triplet (dt), and doublet of quartet (dq). The solvents employed for taking NMR spectra are acetone-d6 (deuterated acetone), DMSO-d6 (perdeuterodimethylsulfoxide), D2O (deuterated water), CDCl3 (deuterochloroform) and other conventional deuterated solvents.

[0158] The abbreviations used herein are conventional abbreviations widely employed in the art. Some of which are: calcd (calculated); DMSO (dimethylsulfoxide); EtOAc (ethyl acetate); HPLC (high-pressure liquid chromatography); LC/MS (liquid chromatography, mass spectroscopy); LDA (lithium diisopropyl amide); LiHMDS (lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide); SiO2 (silica gel); THF (tetrahydrofuran), TFA (trifluoroacetic acid), Me (methyl), Et (ethyl), Ph (phenyl), tBuOK (potassium tert-butoxide), NaOMe (sodium methoxide), NaOEt (sodium ethoxide), Boc (tert-butoxycarbonyl), and DEAD (diethylazo dicarboxylate). 9

EXAMPLE 106

HIV-Integrase Inhibition Activity

[0292] To evaluate in-vitro activity against HIV-integrase, 5 pmole of biotin labeled substrate DNA was bound to 100 μg of Streptavidin coated PVT SPA beads (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech). Recombinant integrase (0.26 ng) was incubated with the beads for 90 min at 37° C. Unbound enzyme was removed by washing the complex followed by addition of inhibitors and 0.1 fmol of P33 labeled target DNA. The reaction was stopped by adding EDTA to a final concentration of 10 mM. Samples were counted in TopCountNXT (Packard) and the CPM was used as a measure of integration. The reaction condition was as described in A. Engelman and R. Craigie , J. Virol. 69, 5908-5911 (1995). The sequences of substrate and target DNA were described in Nucleic Acid Research 22,1121-1122 (1994). Using this assay, examples 1-98 were found to have an IC50=0.002 to 2 μM.
