Abstract
Provided herein are novel compounds (e.g., Formula I or II), pharmaceutical compositions, and methods of using related to Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2). The compounds herein are typically TYK2 inhibitors, which can be used for treating a variety of diseases or disorders, such as an autoimmune disorder or an inflammatory disorder, e.g., psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, inflammatory bowel disease, and/or systemic lupus erythematosus.
Description

In various embodiments, the present disclosure generally relates to novel compounds, compositions comprising the same, methods of preparing and methods of using the same, e.g., for inhibiting tyrosine-protein kinase 2 (TYK2) and/or for treating or preventing various diseases or disorders described herein.


BACKGROUND

Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) is a member of the Janus kinase (JAK) family of nonreceptor tyrosine kinases. It has been shown that TYK2 is critical in regulating the signal transduction cascade downstream of receptors for IL-12, IL-23 and type I interferons (e.g., IFN-alpha or IFN-beta) both in mice and in human. TYK2 mediates the receptor-induced phosphorylation of members of the Signal Transducer and Activation of Transcription (STAT) family of transcription factors, an essential signal that leads to the dimerization of STAT proteins and the transcription of STAT-dependent pro-inflammatory genes.


Various diseases or disorders such as autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, etc. are known to be associated/mediated by TYK2. Clinically, a TYK2 inhibitor, BMS-986165, is currently in phase III trial for treating psoriasis. BMS-986165 is also in various trials for treating other diseases such as Crohn's disease, psoriatic arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, ulcerative colitis, and inflammatory bowel disease. New TYK2 inhibitors are needed to provide therapeutic benefits to a wide variety of patients in need thereof.


BRIEF SUMMARY

In various embodiments, the present disclosure is based in part on the discovery of newly designed heteroaryl compounds as TYK2 inhibitors, which can provide various advantages over existing TYK2 inhibitors, such as better potency, pharmacokinetic profile, and/or in vivo activities. The compounds and compositions herein are useful for treating various diseases or disorders, such as an autoimmune disorder or an inflammatory disorder, e.g., psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, inflammatory bowel disease, and/or systemic lupus erythematosus.

Some compounds of Table 1B contain bold (non-wedged) bond(s) “custom-character” and/or hashed (non-wedged) bond(s) “custom-character” in the structures. As used herein, unless obviously contrary, the use of such non-wedged bolded and hashed bonds in the structures is to show relative stereochemistry, such as cis or trans for two ring substituents. As used herein, unless obviously contrary, the bolded wedged bonds “custom-character” and/or hashed wedged bonds “custom-character” are used in the structures to indicate absolute stereochemistry. For achiral centers, either wedged or non-wedged bonds may be used to indicate relative stereochemistry. As used herein, unless obviously contrary, when the stereochemistry of a chiral center is not specifically drawn, it should be understood that either configurations of the chiral center is intended. Similarly, as used herein, unless obviously contrary, when the relative stereochemistry is not specifically drawn, it should be understood that any relative stereochemistry such as cis or trans is intended.


Compounds of Table 1A and 1B can exist in various stereoisomeric forms, such as individual isomer, an individual enantiomer and/or diastereomer, as applicable, or a mixture of stereoisomers, including racemic mixtures and mixtures enriched in one or more stereoisomers. In some embodiments, when applicable, a compound shown Table 1A or 1B can exist as the as-drawn isomer having greater than 80% ee, greater than 90% ee, greater than 95% ee, greater than 98% ee, greater than 99% ee, or the other enantiomer is non-detectable. In some embodiments, when applicable, a compound shown Table 1A or 1B can exist as the as-drawn isomer having greater than 80% de, greater than 90% de, greater than 95% de, greater than 98% de, greater than 99% de, or the other diastereomer(s) is non-detectable. In some embodiments, when applicable, a compound shown Table 1A or 1B can also exist as a mixture of stereoisomers in any ratio, such as a racemic mixture.


In some embodiments, to the extent applicable, the genus of compounds described herein also excludes any specifically known single compounds prior to this disclosure. In some embodiments, to the extent applicable, any sub-genus of compounds prior to this disclosure that are entirely within a genus of compounds described herein can also be excluded from such genus herein.


The compounds herein can be prepared by those skilled in the art in view of the present disclosure. Representative procedures for preparing compounds of the present disclosure are shown in the Examples section.


For example, using compounds of Formula I as an example, the compounds of the present disclosure can be typically prepared by a series of coupling reactions. As shown in Scheme 1 below, a compound of S-1 can be coupled with an R1-L1-donor S-2 to form an intermediate compound S-3. Upon deprotecting the carboxylic acid protecting group Pg2, the compound of S-4 can be obtained, which can then be coupled with an amine S-5 to provide the compound of Formula I. The couple sequence can also be reversed, in which the Q-NH group is first introduced, followed by introducing the R1-L1-. In scheme 1, Pg1 is hydrogen or an amine protecting group such as a substituted benzyl group, e.g., paramethoxybenzyl; Pg2 is hydrogen or a carboxyl protecting group, such as a C1-4 alkyl, such as methyl, ethyl, etc.; G10 is hydrogen or a suitable metal or non-metal such as boronic acid or ester; Lg1 is a leaving group such as a halide, e.g., Cl. The variables R1, R3, L1, X, and Q are defined and preferred herein. Compounds of Formula II can be prepared similarly.

As will be apparent to those skilled in the art, conventional protecting groups may be necessary to prevent certain functional groups from undergoing undesired reactions. Suitable protecting groups for various functional groups as well as suitable conditions for protecting and deprotecting particular functional groups are well known in the art. For example, numerous protecting groups are described in “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, 4th ed. P. G. M. Wuts; T. W. Greene, John Wiley, 2007, and references cited therein. The reagents for the reactions described herein are generally known compounds or can be prepared by known procedures or obvious modifications thereof. For example, many of the reagents are available from commercial suppliers such as Aldrich Chemical Co. (Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA), Sigma (St. Louis, Missouri, USA). Others may be prepared by procedures, or obvious modifications thereof, described in standard reference texts such as Fieser and Fieser's Reagents for Organic Synthesis, Volumes 1-15 (John Wiley and Sons, 1991), Rodd's Chemistry of Carbon Compounds, Volumes 1-5 and Supplemental (Elsevier Science Publishers, 1989), Organic Reactions, Volumes 1-40 (John Wiley and Sons, 1991), March's Advanced Organic Chemistry, (Wiley, 7th Edition), and Larock's Comprehensive Organic Transformations (Wiley-VCH, 1999), and any of available updates as of this filing.

For example, it is contemplated that the definition(s) of any one or more of L1, R1, R3, X, and Q of Formula I or II can be combined with the definition of any one or more of the other(s) of L1, R1, R3, X, and Q, as applicable, and the resulted compounds from the combination are within the scope of the present disclosure.


The symbol, custom-character displayed perpendicular to (or otherwise crossing) a bond, indicates the point at which the displayed moiety is attached to the remainder of the molecule. It should be noted that the immediately connected group or groups maybe shown beyond the symbol, custom-character to indicate direction of attachment, as would be understood by those skilled in the art.


Definitions of specific functional groups and chemical terms are described in more detail below. The chemical elements are identified in accordance with the Periodic Table of the Elements, CAS version, Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 75th Ed., inside cover, and specific functional groups are generally defined as described therein. Additionally, general principles of organic chemistry, as well as specific functional moieties and reactivity, are described in Thomas Sorrell, Organic Chemistry, University Science Books, Sausalito, 1999; Smith and March, March's Advanced Organic Chemistry, 5th Edition, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, 2001; Larock, Comprehensive Organic Transformations, VCH Publishers, Inc., New York, 1989; and Carruthers, Some Modern Methods of Organic Synthesis, 3rd Edition, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1987. The disclosure is not intended to be limited in any manner by the exemplary listing of substituents described herein.


Compounds described herein can comprise one or more asymmetric centers, and thus can exist in various stereoisomeric forms, e.g., enantiomers and/or diastereomers. For example, the compounds described herein can be in the form of an individual enantiomer, diastereomer or geometric isomer, or can be in the form of a mixture of stereoisomers, including racemic mixtures and mixtures enriched in one or more stereoisomer. Isomers can be isolated from mixtures by methods known to those skilled in the art, including chiral high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and the formation and crystallization of chiral salts; or preferred isomers can be prepared by asymmetric syntheses. See, for example, Jacques et al., Enantiomers, Racemates and Resolutions (Wiley Interscience, New York, 1981); Wilen et al., Tetrahedron 33:2725 (1977); Eliel, Stereochemistry of Carbon Compounds (McGraw-Hill, NY, 1962); and Wilen, Tables of Resolving Agents and Optical Resolutions p. 268 (E. L. Eliel, Ed., Univ. of Notre Dame Press, Notre Dame, IN 1972). The disclosure additionally encompasses compounds described herein as individual isomers substantially free of other isomers, and alternatively, as mixtures of various isomers including racemic mixtures. When a stereochemistry is specifically drawn, unless otherwise contradictory from context, it should be understood that with respect to that particular chiral center or axial chirality, the compound can exist predominantly as the as-drawn stereoisomer, such as with less than 20%, less than 10%, less than 5%, less than 1%, by weight, by SFC or HPLC area, or both, or with a non-detectable amount of the other stereoisomer(s). For example, in some embodiments, the compound can exist predominantly as the as-drawn stereoisomer, with an enantiomeric excess (“ee”) of greater than 70%, such as such as having greater than 80% ee, greater than 90% ee, greater than 95% ee, greater than 98% ee, greater than 99% ee, or the other enantiomer is non-detectable. In some embodiments, the compound can exist predominantly as the as-drawn stereoisomer, with an diastereomeric excess (“de”) of greater than 70%, such as such as having greater than 80% de, greater than 90% de, greater than 95% de, greater than 98% de, greater than 99% de, or the other diastereomer(s) is non-detectable. The presence and/or amounts of stereoisomers can be determined by those skilled in the art in view of the present disclosure, including through the use of a chiral HPLC or chiral SFC. As understood by those skilled in the art, when a “*” is shown in the chemical structures herein, unless otherwise contradictory from context, it is to designate that the corresponding chiral center is enantiomerically pure or enriched in either of the configurations or is enantiomerically pure or enriched in the as-dawn configuration, such as with less than 20%, less than 10%, less than 5%, less than 1%, by weight, by HPLC or SFC area, or both, or with a non-detectable amount of the other stereoisomer(s). In cases where two “*” are associated with two non-chiral carbons in chemical structures herein, unless otherwise contradictory from context, it is to designate that one substituent on one of the two non-chiral carbons and one substutuent on the other of the two non-chiral carbons have one of the two possible relative stereochemistry (or enriched in one), such as cis or trans to each other. Also, when no stereochemistry is specifically drawn, and no “*” is used in the chemical structures, unless otherwise contradictory from context, it should be understood that such structures include the corresponding compound in any stereoisomeric forms, including individual isomers substantially free of other isomers and mixtures of various isomers including racemic mixtures.

The heteroatom(s) S, O, P and N may be placed at any interior position of the heteroalkyl group or at the position at which the alkyl group is attached to the remainder of the molecule. When the heteroalkyl is said to be substituted, the substituent(s) can replace one or more hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon atom(s) and/or the heteroatom(s) of the heteroalkyl. In some embodiments, the heteroalkyl is a C1-4 heteroalkyl, which refers to the heteroalkyl defined herein having 1-4 carbon atoms.

Still further, for alkylene and heteroalkylene linking groups, no orientation of the linking group is implied by the direction in which the formula of the linking group is written. Where “heteroalkyl” is recited, followed by recitations of specific heteroalkyl groups, such as —NR′R″ or the like, it will be understood that the terms heteroalkyl and —NR′R″ are not redundant or mutually exclusive. Rather, the specific heteroalkyl groups are recited to add clarity. Thus, the term “heteroalkyl” should not be interpreted herein as excluding specific heteroalkyl groups, such as —NR′R″ or the like.

In heterocyclyl groups that contain one or more nitrogen atoms, the point of attachment can be a carbon or nitrogen atom, as valency permits. A heterocyclyl group can either be monocyclic (“monocyclic heterocyclyl”) or a fused, bridged, or spiro ring system, such as a fused, bridged, or spiro bicyclic system (“bicyclic heterocyclyl”), and can be saturated or can be partially unsaturated.

In heteroaryl groups that contain one or more nitrogen atoms, the point of attachment can be a carbon or nitrogen atom, as valency permits. Heteroaryl bicyclic ring systems can include one or more heteroatoms in one or both rings. In bicyclic heteroaryl groups wherein one ring does not contain a heteroatom (e.g., indolyl, quinolinyl, and the like), the point of attachment can be on either ring, i.e., either the ring bearing a heteroatom (e.g., 2-indolyl) or the ring that does not contain a heteroatom (e.g., 5-indolyl).

An “optionally substituted” group, such as an optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted alkenyl, optionally substituted alkynyl, optionally substituted carbocyclyl, optionally substituted heterocyclyl, optionally substituted aryl, and optionally substituted heteroaryl groups, refers to the respective group that is unsubstituted or substituted. In general, the term “substituted”, whether preceded by the term “optionally” or not, means that at least one hydrogen present on a group (e.g., a carbon or nitrogen atom) is replaced with a permissible substituent, e.g., a substituent which upon substitution results in a stable compound, e.g., a compound which does not spontaneously undergo transformation such as by rearrangement, cyclization, elimination, or other reaction. Unless otherwise indicated, a “substituted” group has a substituent at one or more substitutable positions of the group, and when more than one position in any given structure is substituted, the substituent can be the same or different at each position. Typically, when substituted, the optionally substituted groups herein can be substituted with 1-5 substituents. Substituents can be a carbon atom substituent, a nitrogen atom substituent, an oxygen atom substituent or a sulfur atom substituent, as applicable. Two of the optional substituents can join to form an optionally substituted cycloalkyl, heterocyclyl, aryl, or heteroaryl ring. Substitution can occur on any available carbon, oxygen, or nitrogen atom, and can form a spirocycle. Typically, substitution herein does not result in an O—O, O—N, S—S, S—N(except SO2—N bond), heteroatom-halogen, or —C(O)—S bond or three or more consecutive heteroatoms, with the exception of O—SO2—O, O—SO2—N, and N—SO2—N, except that some of such bonds or connections may be allowed if in a stable aromatic system.


In a broad aspect, the permissible substituents herein include acyclic and cyclic, branched and unbranched, carbocyclic and heterocyclic, aromatic and non-aromatic substituents of organic compounds. The permissible substituents can be one or more and the same or different for appropriate organic compounds. For purposes of this disclosure, the heteroatoms such as nitrogen may have hydrogen substituents and/or any permissible substituents of organic compounds described herein which satisfy the valences of the heteroatoms. Substituents can include any substituents described herein, for example, a halogen, a hydroxyl, a carbonyl (such as a carboxyl, an alkoxycarbonyl, a formyl, or an acyl), a thiocarbonyl (such as a thioester, a thioacetate, or a thioformate), an alkoxy, a cycloalkoxy, a phosphoryl, a phosphate, a phosphonate, a phosphinate, an amino, an amido, an amidine, an imine, a cyano, a nitro, an azido, a sulfhydryl, an alkylthio, a sulfate, a sulfonate, a sulfamoyl, a sulfonamido, a sulfonyl, a heterocyclyl, an aralkyl, an aryl, or a heteroaryl, each of which can be substituted, if appropriate.

Biological Example 1. TYK2 JH2 Domain Binding Assay

Assays were performed in 384-well plates with a final assay volume of 20 μL containing copper-polyvinyltoluene scintillation proximity assay (SPA) beads (PerkinElmer Life Sciences, catalogue no. RPNQ0095) at 80 g/ml, H3 probe (20 nM), the N-terminal His-tagged TYK2 pseudokinase domain (2.5 nM, purified by Pharmaron), and test compounds in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 100 g ml-1 BSA, 500 DMSO). After incubating at room temperature for 30 min, the inhibition was calculated by the displacement of [3H] 3 binding as determined by scintillation counting. Dose-response curves were generated to determine the concentration required to inhibit H3 probe binding by 5000 (IC50).


Biological Example 2. IL-23 Induced STAT3 QUANTI-Blue in HEK-Blue™ IL-23 Cells

HEK-Blue™ IL-23 cells were prepared at 2×105 cells/ml for adding 5000 cell/well and incubate plates containing compounds+cells for 1 hour at 37° C. Prepare IL-23 (treatment at final conc. 0.1 ng/mL) during incubation and add 2 ul per well of prepared cytokine in media to appropriate wells. The plate is incubated for overnight at 37° C. The next day, QUANTI-Blue solution is prepared. 18 ul of QUANTI-Blue solution per well is added into a new 384-well clear flat bottom plate, then add 2 ul of induced and treated HEK-Blue cell supernatant from overnight plate. Incubate the plate at 37° C. for 2 hours and determine SEAP levels.


Biological activity data for representative compounds tested according to the procedures described in Biological Examples 1 and 2 are provided in Table 3 below. In Table 3, “A” represents IC50 values of less than 10 nM; “B” represents IC50 values of greater than or equal to 10 nM and less than 100 nM; “C” represents IC50 values of greater than or equal to 100 nM and less than 1 μM; and “D” represents IC50 values of 1 μM or greater.
