Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to novel indolinones having kinase-inhibiting activity, the use of these compounds in the treatment of various disease conditions, pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds and processes for preparing them.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The cell division cycle is one of the most fundamental biological processes, which ensures the controlled production of cells with specialised functions. The progression through the eukaryotic cell cycle is controlled by the sequential formation, activation and inactivation of a whole series of protein-serine/threonine kinases, so-called cycline-dependent kinases (CDKs; cycline-dependent kinases) (cf. M. Peter et al. in Cell 79, 181-184 (1994) and G. F. Draetta in Cell Biology 6, 842-846 (1994)). Each CDK obviously phosphorylates specific substrates and coordinates the changes which occur during a specific transition status of the cell cycle. Because of the central role of the CDKs, vigorous attempts have been made to clarify and understand their regulation. In the mean time, some mechanisms have been identified. Thus, essential subunits are only accessible during the corresponding period of the cell cycle because of the synthesis and breakdown control of cycline. Moreover, some CDK/cycline complexes are inhibited by the binding of small protein inhibitors (cycline-dependent kinase inhibitors), whose presence is also strictly controlled. Furthermore, the CDK activities are translationally regulated by reversible phosphorylation of their catalytic subunits (cf. C. Hutchinson and D. M. Glover (Editors) in Cell Cycle Control, IRL Press, London, 1994).
The primary regulator of the CDK activity is the associated cycline subunit. Cyclines, which were originally defined as proteins, the concentrations of which oscillate during the cell cycle, are now--more accurately--defined as a family of structurally related proteins which bind and activate CDK-catalytic subunits. For example, CDK1 interacts with cycline B and with cycline A; CDK2 with cycline E and cycline A; CDK4 and CDK6 with D-cyclines; and CDK7 with cycline H. The cycline function is primarily controlled by changes in the cycline concentrations which increase characteristically when the cell is in a certain state: cycline E during the G1/S phase; cycline A during the S phase; cycline B during the G2/M phase. D-cyclines and cycline H are exceptions in this respect as their concentrations are relatively constant during the entire cell cycle.
The D-cyclines and cycline E and cycline A are primarily responsible for the progression through the G1 to the S phase of the cell cycle. Growth hormones, steroid hormones, the activation of ras, and other mitogenic stimuli induce an increase in the concentration of D-cyclines and/or cycline E and thereby initiate the progression of the cell through the G1 to the S phase. A substrate for cycline D/CDK4 or cycline D/CDK6 is the retinoblastoma gene product (pRB). The retinoblastoma gene in turn is a tumour suppressor gene which controls the cell proliferation. pRB--in the hypophosphorylated form--is normally bound to the transcription factor E.sub.2 F, which is inactive in this complex. Hyerphosphorylation of pRB by CDKs releases E.sub.2 F and induces transcription. A key role in cell growth is played by the cycline D/CDK4 or/CDK6 complex. There are increasingly indications that D-cyclines (D1 and D2) are obviously highly involved in the genesis of tumours (cf. L. H. Hartwell et al. in Science 266, 1821-1828 (1994)). The molecular mechanisms which underlie the proto-oncogenic properties of cycline D1 include chromosomal rearrangements (in parathyroid adenoma and B-cell lymphoma) and amplification of the chromosomal band 11q13, which has been reported for various types of cancer (including breast, head, neck and liver tumours) (cf. C. Gillett et al. in Cancer Research 54, 1812-1817 (1994) and T. Callender et al. in Cancer 74, 152-158 (1994)). It is assumed that the overall result of these genetic changes is an ectopic or abnormally heightened expression of the cycline D1 protein, which may possibly contribute to excessive cell divisions and unregulated tumour growth.
Another major mechanism of CDK regulation involves a family of different proteins, so-called cycline-dependent kinase inhibitors (CKIs) which bind and inhibit cycline/CDK complexes (cf. G. Peters in Nature 371, 204-205 (1994)). The chief (mammalian) CKIs fall into two categories: (1): p21 (CIP1/WAF1/-CAP20/SD1), p27 (KIP1) and p57 (KIP2) are related proteins with a preference for cycline/CDK2 and cycline/CDK4 complexes; (2) p16.sup.INK4, p15.sup.INK4B, p18.sup.INK4C and p19.sup.INK4D are closely related CKIs with a specificity for CDK4 and/or CDK6. p21 primarily regulates transcription. p21 transcription is induced by the tumour-suppressor gene p53, a transcriptional regulator which mediates the stopping of the cell cycle after DNA damage or in senescence. Basal concentrations of p21 may possibly constitute a threshold which has to be crossed before complexes can become active. Transcriptional control may possibly also be important for p15.sup.INK4B, the expression of which is greatly increased when treated with the negative growth factor TGF.beta.. An additional effect of TGF.beta. is obviously the release of p27, which is established in a heat-sensitive compartment. p27 is probably also involved in the effects of positive growth factors. For example, interleukin-2 stimulation appears to induce a fall in the concentration of p27 and as a result the proliferation of T-cells.
Very recent studies have frequently shown an allelic loss at chromosome 9 in a number of human carcinomas (e.g. melanoma, head and neck squamous cell cancer, lung cancer, pancreatic adeno-Ca, breast cancer and nasopharyngeal-Ca) (cf. A. Kamb et al. in Science 264, 436-440 (1994); C. J. Hussussian et al. in Nature Genetics 8, 15-21 (1994); C. Caldas et al. in Cancer Nature Genetics 8, 27-32 (1994); T. Mori et al. in Cancer Research 54, 3396-3397 (1994) and A. Okamato et al. in Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 91, 11045-11049 (1994)). The loss of chromosome 9p21-22 is of particular interest. In this region, where a tumour suppressor gene is presumed to be, there is a gene bearing the name CDKN2 (MTS 1, Multiple Tumour Suppressor Gene 1), which codes a p16 protein. As already mentioned above, the p16 protein binds to CDK4 and CDK6 and thus inhibits their interaction with D-cyclines. Damage or mutations in the p16 gene may possibly influence the relative balance of functional p16 and cycline D, leading to unregulated CDK activity and abnormal cell growth. The very recent observations that p16 damage, inactivation by gene silencing and/or mutations very frequently occur in many tumour cells, indicate that p16 plays a key role in suppressing the development of various human carcinomas (cf. G. I. Shapiro et al. in Cancer Research 55, 6200-6209 (1995)).
Deregulated CDK activity may also be the consequence of: (a) mutation or excessive expression of the kinase; (b) induced expression, overexpression or delayed breakdown of cyclines; (c) functional inactivation of CKIs by gene silencing, damage or mutation; or (d) a combination of these phenomena. The result of these deviations is a deregulated cell cycle with deregulated cell division, which causes various illnesses or contributes to their progress.

In the reactions described hereinbefore, any reactive groups present such as carboxy, amino, alkylamino or imino groups may be protected during the reaction by conventional protecting groups which are cleaved again after the reaction.
For example, a protecting group for a carboxyl group may be a trimethylsilyl, methyl, ethyl, tert.butyl, benzyl or tetrahydropyranyl group and
protecting groups for an amino, alkylamino or imino group may be an acetyl, trifluoroacetyl, benzoyl, ethoxycarbonyl, tert.butoxycarbonyl, benzyloxycarbonyl, benzyl, methoxybenzyl or 2,4-dimethoxybenzyl group and additionally, for the amino group, a phthalyl group.
Any protecting group used is optionally subsequently cleaved for example by hydrolysis in an aqueous solvent, e.g. in water, isopropanol/water, acetic acid/water, tetrahydrofuran/water or dioxane/water, in the presence of an acid such as trifluoroacetic acid, hydrochloric acid or sulphuric acid or in the presence of an alkali metal base such as lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, at temperatures between 0 and 100.degree.

Moreover, chiral compounds of general formula I obtained may be resolved into their enantiomers and/or diastereomers.
Thus, for example, the compounds of general formula I obtained which occur as racemates may be separated by methods known per se (cf. Allinger N. L. and Eliel E. L. in "Topics in Stereochemistry", Vol. 6, Wiley Interscience, 1971) into their optical antipodes and compounds of general formula I with at least 2 asymmetric carbon atoms may be resolved into their diastereomers on the basis of their physical-chemical differences using methods known per se, e.g. by chromatography and/or fractional crystallisation, and, if these compounds are obtained in racemic form, they may subsequently be resolved into the enantiomers as mentioned above.
The enantiomers are preferably separated by column separation on chiral phases or by recrystallisation from an optically active solvent or by reacting with an optically active substance which forms salts or derivativcs such as e.g. esters or amides with the racemic compound, particularly acids and the activated derivatives or alcohols thereof, and separating the diastereomeric mixture of salts or derivatives thus obtained, e.g. on the basis of their differences in solubility, whilst the free antipodes may be released from the pure diastereomeric salts or derivatives by the action of suitable agents. Optically active acids in common use are e.g. the D- and L-forms of tartaric acid or dibenzoyltartaric acid, di-o-tolyltartaric acid, malic acid, mandelic acid, camphorsulphonic acid, glutamic acid, N-acetylglutamic acid, aspartic acid, N-acetylaspartic acid or quinic acid. An optically active alcohol may be for example (+) or (-)-menthol and an optically active acyl group in amides, for example, may be a (+)- or (-)-menthyloxycarbonyl group.
Furthermore, the compounds of formula I obtained may be converted into the salts thereof, particularly for pharmaceutical use into the physiologically acceptable salts with inorganic or organic acids. Acids which may be used for this purpose include for example hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulphuric acid, phosphoric acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, maleic acid or methanesulphonic acid.
Moreover, if the new compounds of formula I thus obtained contain a carboxy group, they may subsequently, if desired, be converted into the salts thereof with inorganic or organic bases, particularly for pharmaceutical use into the physiologically acceptable salts thereof. Suitable bases for this purpose include for example sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, cyclohexylamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine and triethanolamine.
The compounds of general formulae I to VIII used as starting materials are known from the literature in some cases or may be obtained by methods known from the literature or are described in the Examples.
As already mentioned, the new compounds of general formula I have valuable pharmacological properties, particularly inhibitory effects on various kinases and cycline/CDK-complexes, on the proliferation of cultivated human tumour cells and, when administered orally, on the growth of tumours in nude mice infected with human tumour cells.
For example, the new compounds were tested for their biological properties in the following tests:
Test 1
Inhibition of cycline/CDK Enzyme in vitro Activity
High Five.TM. insect cells (BTI-TN-5B1-4) which had been infected with a high titre of recombinant baculovirus were used to produce active human cycline/CDK holoenzymes. By using a baculovirus vector which contained two promoters (polyhedrin enhancer promoter, P10 enhancer promoter), GST-tagged cyclines (e.g. cycline D1 or cycline D3) with the corresponding His.sub.6 -tagged CDK subunit (e.g. for CDK4 or CDK6) were expressed in the same cell. The active holoenzyme was isolated by affinity chromatography on glutathione sepharose. Recombinant GST-tagged pRB (aa 379-928) was produced in E. coli and purified by affinity chromatography on glutathione sepharose.
The substrates used for the kinase assays depended on the specific kinases. Iistone H1 (Sigma) was used as the substrate for cycline E/CDK2, cycline A/CDK2, cycline B/CDK1 and for v-cycline/CDK6. GST-tagged pRB (aa 379-928) was used as substrate for cycline D1/CDK4, cycline D3/CDK4, cycline D1/CDK6 and for cycline D3/CDK6.
Lysates of the insect cells infected with recombinant baculovirus or recombinant kinases (obtained from the lysates by purification) were incubated together with radiolabelled ATP in the presence of a suitable substrate with various concentrations of the inhibitor in a 1% DMSO solution (dimethyl sulphoxide) for 45 minutes at 30.degree. C. The substrate proteins with associated radioactivity were precipitated with 5% TCA (trichloroacetic acid) in water-repellent PVDF multi-well microtitre plates (Millipore) or with 0.5% phosphoric acid solution on Whatman P81 filters. After the addition of scintillation liquid the radioactivity was measured in a Wallace 1450 Microbeta Liquid Scintillation Counter. For each concentration of the substance double measurements were carried out; IC.sub.50 values were calculated for the enzyme inhibition.
Test 2
Inhibition of the Proliferation of Cultivated Human Tumour Cells
Cells of the Leimyosarcoma tumour cell line SK-UT-1B (obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC)) were cultivated in Minimum Essential Medium with non-essential amino acids (Gibco), supplemented with sodium pyruvate (1 mmol), glutamine (2 mmol) and 10% foetal calf serum (Gibco) and harvested during the log-growth phase. Then the SK-UT-1B cells were added to Cytostar.RTM. multi-well plates (Amersham) at a density of 4000 cells per well and incubated overnight in an incubator. Various concentrations of the compounds (dissolved in DMSO; final concentration: <1%) were added to the cells. After 48 hours' incubation .sup.14 C-thymidine (Amersham) was added to each well and incubation was continued for a further 24 hours. The quantity of .sup.14 C-thymidine incorporated into the tumour cells in the presence of the inhibitor and representing the number of cells in the S phase was measured in a Wallace 1450 Microbeta Liquid Scintillation Counter. IC.sub.50 values for the inhibition of proliferation (=inhibition of incorporated .sup.14 C-thymidine) were calculated, correcting for the background radiation. All the measurements were done twice.
Test 3
In vivo Effects on Tumour-bearing Nude Mice
10.sup.6 cells [SK-UT-1B, or non-small cell lung tumour NCI-H460 (obtained from ATCC)] in a volume of 0.1 ml were injected subcutaneously into male and/or female nude mice (NMRI nu/nu; 25-35 g; N=10-20); alternatively, small fragments of SK-UT-1B or NCI-H460 cell clumps were implanted subcutaneously. One to three weeks after the injection or implantation a kinase inhibitor was administered daily by oral route for a period of 2 to 4 weeks (by oesophageal tube). The size of the tumour was measured three times a week using a digital sliding gauge. The effect of a kinase inhibitor on the tumour growth was determined as a percentage inhibition compared with a control group treated with placebo.
The following Tables 1 and 2 contain the results of tests 1 and 2:

The following results were obtained in test no. 3 (in vivo):
Administration (100 mg/kg p.o. of the compound of Example 2.5 once a day for two weeks) to male nude mice (n=9) yielded a significant reduction in the tumour size of around 65% (p<0.05).
In view of their biological properties, the new compounds of general formula I, their isomers and physiologically acceptable salts are suitable for the treatment of diseases characterised by excessive or abnormal cell proliferation.
Such diseases include (with no claim to completeness): viral infections (e.g. HIV and Kaposi's sarcoma); inflammation and autoimmune diseases (e.g. colitis, arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, glomerulonephritis and wound healing); bacterial, fungal and/or parasitic infections; leukaemias, lymphoma and solid tumours; skin diseases (e.g. psoriasis); bone diseases; cardiovascular diseases (e.g. restenosis and hypertrophy). They are also useful for protecting proliferating cells (e.g. hair, intestinal, blood and progenitor cells) against DNA damage caused by radiation, UV treatment and/or cytostatic treatment.
The new compounds may be used for the short-term or long-term treatment of the abovementioned diseases, optionally in conjunction with other state-of-the-art compounds such as other cytostatics.
The dosage required to achieve such an effect is appropriately 0.1 to 30 mg/kg, preferably 0.3 to 10 mg/kg by intravenous route, and 0.1 to 100 mg/kg, preferably 0.3 to 30 mg/kg by oral route, in each case administered 1 to 4 times a day. For this purpose, the compounds of formula I prepared according to the invention may be formulated, optionally together with other active substances, with one or more inert conventional carriers and/or diluents, e.g. with corn starch, lactose, glucose, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, citric acid, tartaric acid, water, water/ethanol, water/glycerol, water/sorbitol, water/polyethyleneglycol, propyleneglycol, cetylstearyl alcohol, carboxymethylcellulose or fatty substances such as hard fat or suitable mixtures thereof, to produce conventional galenic preparations such as plain or coated tablets, capsules, powders, suspensions or suppositories, or as solutions for injections or infusions.
