Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

This disclosure provides compounds and related methods useful for inhibiting ubiquitin-specific protease 1 (USP1).


BACKGROUND

USP1 is a cysteine isopeptidase of the USP subfamily of DUBs. Full-length human USP1 is composed of 785-amino acids, including a catalytic triad composed of Cys90, His593 and Asp751. USP1 deubiquitinates a variety of cellular targets involved in different processes related to cancer. For example, USP1 deubiquitinates PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen), a key protein in translesion synthesis (TLS), and FANCD2 (Fanconi anemia group complementation group D2), a key protein in the Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway. These DNA damage response (DDR) pathways are essential for repair of DNA damage induced by DNA cross-linking agents such as cisplatin, mitomycin C, diepoxybutane, ionizing radiation and ultraviolet radiation.


USP1 is upregulated in BRCA1-mutant tumors and is synthetic lethal with BRCA1. BRCA-mutant and more broadly homologous recombination deficient (HRD) tumors are sensitive to PARP inhibitors (Mateo et al. 2019). Despite their effectiveness, resistance to PARP inhibitors occurs and leads to disease progression. One of the mechanisms of resistance to PARP inhibitors is restoration of replication fork stability. USP1 protects replication forks from collapse. Knockdown or inhibition of USP1 results in persistence of mono-ubiquitinated PCNA at the replication fork and cell death in BRCA1 deficient cells. In addition, inhibition of USP1 was antiproliferative in BRCA1-mutant cells resistant to PARP inhibitor suggesting that USP1 inhibitors could be useful in treating BRCA-mutant tumors resistant to PARP inhibitors.


USP1 affects other substrates beyond PCNA and FANCD2 and has been shown to impact epigenetic proteins, such as lysine-specific demethylase 4A (KDM4A) and enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), as well as signaling pathways such as Fanconi anemia and PI3K/AKT. Different genetic contexts beyond BRCA mutations are therefore susceptible to drive dependency to USP1.


Inhibition of USP1 with small molecule inhibitors therefore has the potential to be a treatment for cancers, including BRCA mutant tumors, and other disorders. For this reason, there remains a considerable need for potent small molecule inhibitors of USP1.

Step 1. Synthesis of 2-chloro-5H,6H,7H,8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one

Into a 50 mL 3-necked round-bottomed flask purged and maintained with an inert atmosphere of nitrogen, was placed a solution of 2-chloro-5-iodopyrimidin-4-amine (1 g, 3.91 mmol, 1.00 equiv) in toluene (20 mL), Pd(PPh3)4 (454 mg, 0.39 mmol, 0.10 equiv), ethyl 3-(bromozincio)propanoate (0.5 M in THF) (24 mL, 11.73 mmol, 3.00 equiv). The resulting solution was stirred overnight at 80° C. The reaction mixture was cooled to rt. The resulting mixture was concentrated under vacuum. The residue was applied onto a TLC with EA/petroleum ether (0-100%). The residue was purified by preparative TLC (DCM:MeOH=20:1). This resulted in 160 mg (20%) of 2-chloro-5H,6H,7H,8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one as a light yellow solid. LC-MS (ESI) m/z 184 [M+H]+.

Into a 50 mL round-bottom flask, was placed 2-chloro-5H,6H,7H,8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one (80 mg, 0.40 mmol, 1.00 equiv), 2-[4-(bromomethyl)phenyl]-1-methyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-imidazole (139 mg, 0.41 mmol, 1.03 equiv), Cs2CO3 (285 mg, 0.86 mmol, 2.14 equiv), DMF (8 mL). The resulting solution was stirred for 5 h at 25° C. The resulting solution was diluted with 20 mL of water, extracted with 3×20 mL of EA and the organic layers were combined and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was applied onto a silica gel column with EA/petroleum ether (1:2). The collected fractions were combined and concentrated under vacuum. This resulted in 40 mg (24%) of 2-chloro-8-([4-[1-methyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]phenyl]methyl)-5H,6H,7H,8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one as yellow oil. LC-MS (ESI) m/z 422 [M+H]+.

Into a 25 mL round-bottom flask purged and maintained with an inert atmosphere of nitrogen, was placed 2-chloro-8-([4-[1-methyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]phenyl]methyl)-5H,6H,7H,8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one (50 mg, 0.12 mmol, 1.00 equiv), 2-(propan-2-yl)-3-(tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)pyridine (35 mg, 0.14 mmol, 1.00 equiv), Pd(dppf)Cl2 CH2Cl2 (9.6 mg, 0.01 mmol, 1.00 equiv), sodium carbonate (25 mg, 0.24 mmol, 1.00 equiv), dioxane (10 mL), water (3 mL). The resulting solution was stirred for 2 h at 100° C. The reaction mixture was cooled. The resulting solution was diluted with 15 mL of EA. The mixture was filtered through a Celite pad. The resulting mixture was concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by preparative TLC (EA:PE=1:3). The crude product was purified by Prep-HPLC with the following conditions (Prep-HPLC-025): Column: XBridge Shield RP18 OBD Column, 5 μm, 19*150 mm; Mobile Phase A: water (10 mmol/L NH4HCO3), Mobile Phase B: ACN; Flow rate: 20 mL/min; Gradient: 35% B to 65% B in 7 min; 254 nm; Rt: 6 min. This resulted in 24.7 mg (41%) of 8-([4-[1-methyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]phenyl]methyl)-2-[2-(propan-2-yl)pyridin-3-yl]-5H,6H,7H,8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one as a white solid.

Example A: Ubitquin-Rhodamine 110 Assay for USP1 Activity

The HTS assay was performed in a final volume of 20 μL in assay buffer containing 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0, (1M Tris-HCl, pH 8.0 solution; Corning 46-031-CM)), 2 mM CaCl2) (1M Calcium Chloride solution; Sigma #21114) 1 mM GSH (L-Glutathione reduced; Sigma #G4251), 0.01% Prionex (0.22 μM filtered, Sigma #G-0411), and 0.01% Triton X-100. Stock compound solutions were stored at −20° C. as 10 mM in DMSO. Up to 1 month prior to the assay, 2 mM test compounds were pre-dispensed into assay plates (Black, low volume; Corning #3820) and frozen at −20° C. Pre-stamped assay plates were allowed to come to room temperature on the day of the assay. For the screen, 100 nL of 2 mM was pre-dispensed for a final screening concentration of 10 μM (DMSO(fc)=0.5%). The final concentration of the enzyme (USP1, construct USP1 (1-785, GG670, 671AA)/UAF1 (1-677)-Flag; Viva) in the assay was 100 pM. Final substrate (Ub-Rh110; Ubiquitin-Rhodamine 110, R&D Systems #U-555) concentration was 25 nM with [Ub-Rh110]<<Km. 10 μL of 2× enzyme was added to assay plates (pre-stamped with compound) either simultaneously with 2×Ub-Rh110 or preincubated with USP1 40 minutes prior to the addition of 10 μL of 2×Ub-Rh110 to compound plates. Plates were incubated stacked for 45 minutes at room temperature before fluorescence was read on the Envision (Excitation at 485 nm and Emission at 535 nm; Perkin Elmer) or on the PheraSTAR (Excitation at 485 nm and Emission at 535 nm; BMG Labtech).


For follow-up IC50 studies, each assay was performed in a final volume of 15 μL in assay buffer containing 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0, (1M Tris-HCl, pH 8.0 solution; Corning 46-031-CM)), 1 mM GSH (L-Glutathione reduced; Sigma #G4251), 0.03% BGG (0.22 μM filtered, Sigma, #G7516-25G), and 0.01% Triton X-100 (Sigma, #T9284-10L)). Nanoliter quantities of either an 8-point or 10-point, 3-fold serial dilution in DMSO were pre-dispensed into assay plates (Perkin Elmer, ProxiPlate-384 F Plus, #6008269) for a final test concentration range of either 25 μM to 11 nM or 25 μM to 1.3 nM, respectively. The final concentration of the enzyme (USP1, construct USP1 (1-785, GG670, 671AA)/UAF1 (1-677)-Flag; Viva) in the assay was 25 pM. Final substrate (Ub-Rh110; Ubiquitin-Rhodamine 110, R&D Systems #U-555) concentration was 25 nM with [Ub-Rh110]<<Km. 5 μL of 2× enzyme was added to assay plates (pre-stamped with compound) preincubated with USP1 for 30 minutes and then 5 μL of 2×Ub-Rh110 was added to assay plates. Plates were incubated stacked for 20 minutes at room temperature before 5 μL of stop solution (final concentration of 10 mM citric acid in assay buffer (Sigma, #251275-500G)). Fluorescence was read on the Envision (Excitation at 485 nm and Emission at 535 nm; Perkin Elmer) or on the PheraSTAR (Excitation at 485 nm and Emission at 535 nm; BMG Labtech).


For both assay formats data were reported as percent inhibition compared with control wells based on the following equation: % inh=[1−((FLU−AveLow)/(AveHigh−AveLow))]×100 where FLU=measured Fluorescence, AveLow=average Fluorescence of no enzyme control (n=16), and AveHigh=average Fluorescence of DMSO control (n=16). IC50 values were determined by curve fitting of the standard 4 parameter logistic fitting algorithm included in the Activity Base software package: IDBS XE Designer Model205. Data is fitted using the Levenburg Marquardt algorithm.


As set forth in the Table below, IC50 values are defined as follows: ≤0.010 μM (+++); >0.010 μM and ≤0.1 μM (++); >0.1 μM and <1.0 μM (+).
