Description

The present application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202210266719.4 filed on Mar. 17, 2022, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.


TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical chemistry, and particularly to a class of compounds with an inhibitory effect on KIF18A protein, a method for preparing same, and use of the class of compounds in preparing anti-tumor medicaments.


BACKGROUND

Genomic instability is a common feature of most tumor cells. Most tumor cells exhibit abnormal gain or deletion of chromosomes. The chromosome instability of tumor cells leads to the interaction of abnormal chromosomes with mitotic spindle microtubules, which in turn causes chromosome segregation errors. Cells with chromosome instability develop increased spindle microtubule polymerization and reduced spindle microtubule-centromere contact turnover, as compared to cells with normal chromosomes. Therefore, anti-mitotic therapies directed against the microtubule backbone may be particularly effective for cells with chromosome instability.


Kinesins are a class of molecular motors that play important roles in cell division and intracellular vesicle and organelle transport. Mitotic kinesins play important roles in several aspects such as spindle assembly, chromosome segregation, centrosome segregation, and dynamics. Human kinesins are classified into 14 subfamilies based on differences in amino acid sequences of motor domains, and the ATPase activity located in the motor domains drives the proteins to move unidirectionally along the microtubules. The non-motor domains of these proteins are responsible for interacting with substrates, and a variety of different membranous organelles, signal transduction scaffold systems, and chromosomes serve as substrates with which the non-motor domains can interact. The kinesins gain energy through ATP hydrolysis, moving the substrates along polarized microtubules. Therefore, kinesins are commonly referred to as “plus-end” or “minus-end” directed motors.


KIF18A protein belongs to the kinesin-8 subfamily: KIF18A protein is overexpressed in various types of cancers, such as lung, ovarian, cervical, breast, pancreatic, prostate, colon, and bladder cancers. Studies suggest that KIF18A affects the dynamics of the plus-ends of the centromere microtubules so as to control correct chromosome positioning and spindle tension. In tumor cells with chromosome instability, abnormal microtubule dynamics make such cells particularly dependent on KIF18A protein to reduce spindle microtubule-centromere contact turnover and to limit microtubule growth (Nat Commun. 2021, 12, 1213). When KIF18A protein is deleted from tumor cells with chromosome instability, centrosomes of the cells are fragmented and mitotic progression is slowed or stopped. However, these phenomena do not occur in cells with normal chromosomes. Therefore, the activity of KIF18A protein does not have a significant effect on the proliferation of normal cells but is very critical for the growth of chromosomally unstable tumors. Accordingly, the development of KIF18A inhibitors is a new promising approach against tumors with chromosome instability.

Further Forms of Compounds

“Pharmaceutically acceptable” herein refers to a substance, such as a carrier or diluent, which will not lead to loss of biological activity or properties in a compound and is relatively non-toxic. For example, when an individual is given a substance, such substance will not cause undesired biological effects or interact with any component contained therein in a deleterious manner.


The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to a form of a compound that does not cause significant irritation to the organism receiving the administration or eliminate the biological activity and properties of the compound. In certain specific aspects, the pharmaceutically acceptable salt is obtained by subjecting the compound of the general formula to a reaction with acids or bases, wherein the acids or bases include, but are not limited to, those found in Stahl and Wermuth, Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection. and Use. 1st Ed. (Wiley. 2002).


It should be understood that references to pharmaceutically acceptable salts include solvent addition forms or crystalline forms, especially solvates or polymorphs. A solvate contains either stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amount of solvent and is selectively formed during crystallization in a pharmaceutically acceptable solvent such as water and ethanol. Hydrates are formed when the solvent is water, or alcoholates are formed when the solvent is ethanol. The solvates of the compound of general formula (1) are conveniently prepared or formed according to methods described herein. For example, hydrates of the compound of general formula (1) are conveniently prepared by recrystallization in a mixed solvent of water/organic solvent, wherein the organic solvent used includes, but is not limited to, tetrahydrofuran, acetone, ethanol, or methanol. Furthermore, the compounds described herein may be present in either a non-solvated form or a solvated form. In general, the solvated forms are considered equivalent to the non-solvated forms for purposes of the compounds and methods provided herein.


In other specific examples, the compound of general formula (1) is prepared in different forms including, but not limited to, amorphous, pulverized, and nanoparticle forms. In addition, the compound of general formula (1) includes crystalline forms, but may also be polymorphs. Polymorphs include different lattice arrangements of the same elements of a compound. Polymorphs generally have different X-ray diffraction spectra, infrared spectra, melting points, density, hardness, crystalline forms, optical and electrical properties, stability, and solubility. Different factors such as recrystallization solvent, crystallization rate, and storage temperature may lead to a single dominant crystalline form.


In another aspect, the compound of general formula (1) may have a chiral center and/or axial chirality, and thus may be present in the form of a racemate, a racemic mixture, a single enantiomer, a diastereomeric compound, a single diastereomer, and a cis-trans isomer. Each chiral center or axial chirality will independently produce two optical isomers, and all possible optical isomers, diastereomeric mixtures, and pure or partially pure compounds are included within the scope of the present invention. The present invention is meant to include all such isomeric forms of these compounds.


The compound of the present invention may contain unnatural proportions of atomic isotopes at one or more of the atoms that constitute the compound. For example, the compound may be labeled with radioactive isotopes, such as tritium (3H), iodine-125 (125I), and C-14 (14C). For another example, deuterium can be used to substitute a hydrogen atom to form a deuterated compound. The bond formed by deuterium and carbon is stronger than that formed by common hydrogen and carbon, and compared with an undeuterated medicament, the deuterated medicament generally has the advantages of reduced adverse effects, increased medicament stability, enhanced efficacy, prolonged in vivo half-life and the like. All isotopic variations of the compound of the present invention, whether radioactive or not, are intended to be encompassed within the scope of the present invention.

Biological Example 1. Assay for In Vitro Inhibition of Enzymatic Activity of KIF18A by Compounds of the Present Invention

KIF18A enzyme assay: The enzymatic activity of KIF18A after treatment with the compounds was measured by an assay of microtubule-stimulated ATPase activity. ADP generated from the ATPase reaction was measured in this assay. The compounds were serially diluted 2-fold in DMSO over a range of 22 concentration points. Recombinant human KIF18A (1-467His-tagged) protein was expressed using a baculovirus system. Concentrations of KIF18A protein, microtubules, and ATP in the reaction were optimized for a standardized homogenous enzyme assay using an ADP-Glo kinase/ATPase assay kit. A reaction buffer [(15 mM Tris, pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% PluronicF-68, 1 μM paclitaxel, and 30 μg/mL pig microtubules] was prepared. The compounds and KIF18A protein (30 nM) were added to the prepared reaction buffer, and the reaction mixture was incubated at room temperature for 15 min, followed by addition of ATP (Km, 75 μM). The resulting reaction mixture was incubated at room temperature for another 15 min. 5 μL of ADP-Glo reagent and 2.5 μL of the reaction mixture were mixed and the resulting mixture was incubated at room temperature for 40 min. 10 μL of ADP-Glo detection reagent was added and the mixture was incubated at room temperature for 40 min. Luminescence was measured using a microplate reader and compared with that of the DMSO group, and then the inhibition percentages and IC50 values of the compounds were calculated. The results are shown in Table 2 below.
