Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention provides compounds that modulate the activity of kinases, such as leucine rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2).


BACKGROUND

A variety of medical conditions that affect millions of people are caused or exacerbated by unregulated activity of protein kinases. For example, aberrant kinase activity is associated with autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, bone diseases, metabolic diseases, neurological and neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, allergies, asthma, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, skin disorders, eye diseases, infectious diseases and hormone-related diseases. For many such disorders, however, no effective inhibitor or activator exists for the particular kinase that causes the disorder or its symptoms. Consequently, patients continue to suffer from an array of disorders due to the lack of a suitable drug for their conditions.


Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by selective degeneration and cell death of dopaminergic neurons in the substantial nigra region of the brain. Parkinson's disease was generally considered to be sporadic and of unknown etiology. In the past few years, there has been an important development of the understanding of the genetic basis of this disease and associated pathogenic mechanisms. Parkinson's disease is a chronic, progressive motor system disorder that afflicts approximately one out of every 1000 people, with hereditary Parkinson's disease accounting for 5-10% of all of patients. Parkinson's disease is caused by progressive loss of mid-brain dopamine neurons, leaving patients with impaired ability to direct and control their movements. The primary Parkinson's disease symptoms are trembling, rigidity, slowness of movement, and impaired balance. Many Parkinson's disease patients also experience other symptoms such as emotional changes, memory loss, speech problems, and sleeping disorders.


Pathologically, the disease is characterized by loss of dopaminergic neurons with the consequent decrease in dopamine levels in the brain and by aggregation of the protein α-synuclein in the dopaminergic neurons. These aggregations called Lewy-bodies are composed of insoluble α-synuclein phosphorylated at serine-129 and ubiquitin. Current Parkinson's disease therapeutic intervention strategies aim at increasing the dopamine levels in areas innervated by dopaminergic neurons in the brain. Levadopa is a precursor of dopamine, and it is therapeutically used to increase dopamine levels. Carbidopa is an inhibitor of the enzyme aromatic-L-amino-acid decarboxylase also known as DOPA decarboxylase, and it is often co-administered with levadopa to increase the fraction of levadopa which reaches the clinically relevant regions in the brain.


SUMMARY

Inhibitors of leucine rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are known to be effective for treatment of Parkinson's Disease (PD). The invention provides LRRK2 inhibitors for treatment of PD.

Pharmaceutical Compositions

The present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions containing one or more compounds described above, or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester, prodrug, hydrate, solvate or salt of such a compound, optionally in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The invention further provides such compounds for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of one or more diseases mentioned herein.


A pharmaceutical composition may contain one or more compounds of the invention in a therapeutically effective amount. A therapeutically effective amount of a compound in accordance with this invention means an amount of compound that is effective to prevent, alleviate or ameliorate symptoms of disease or prolong the survival of the subject being treated. Determination of a therapeutically effective amount is within the skill in the art.


The therapeutically effective amount or dosage of a compound according to this invention can vary within wide limits and may be determined in a manner known in the art. Such dosage may be adjusted to the individual requirements in each particular case including the specific compound being administered, the route of administration, the condition being treated, as well as the patient being treated.


Compositions of the invention may include a vehicle for delivery of one or more compounds of the invention. For example, the composition may contain particles, such as nanoparticles, microparticles, liposomes, micelles, and virus particles.


Examples of pharmacologically acceptable salts of sufficiently basic compounds of the invention are salts of physiologically acceptable mineral acids like hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric and phosphoric acid; or salts of organic acids like methanesulfonic, p-toluenesulfonic, lactic, acetic, trifluoroacetic, citric, succinic, fumaric, maleic and salicylic acid. Further, a sufficiently acidic compound of the invention may form alkali or earth alkali metal salts, for example sodium, potassium, lithium, calcium or magnesium salts; ammonium salts; or organic base salts, for example methylamine, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, triethylamine, ethylenediamine, ethanolamine, choline hydroxide, meglumin, piperidine, morpholine, tris-(2-hydroxyethyl)amine, lysine or arginine salts; all of which are also further examples of salts of the invention. Compounds of the invention may be solvated, especially hydrated. The hydratization/hydration may occur during the process of production or as a consequence of the hygroscopic nature of the initially water free compounds of the invention. The solvates and/or hydrates may e.g. be present in solid or liquid form.


It should be appreciated that certain compounds of the invention may have tautomeric forms from which only one might be specifically mentioned or depicted in the following description, different geometrical isomers (which are usually denoted as cis/trans isomers or more generally as (E) and (Z) isomers) or different optical isomers as a result of one or more chiral carbon atoms (which are usually nomenclatured under the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog or R/S system). All these tautomeric forms, geometrical or optical isomers (as well as racemates and diastereomers) and polymorphous forms are included in the invention. Since the compounds of the invention may contain asymmetric C-atoms, they may be present either as achiral compounds, mixtures of diastereomers, mixtures of enantiomers or as optically pure compounds. The present invention comprises both all pure enantiomers and all pure diastereomers, and also the mixtures thereof in any mixing ratio.


According to a further embodiment of the present invention, one or more hydrogen atoms of the compounds of the present invention may be replaced by deuterium. Deuterium modification improves the metabolic properties of a drug with little or no change in its intrinsic pharmacology. Deuterium substitution at specific molecular positions improves metabolic stability reduces formation of toxic metabolites and/or increases the formation of desired active metabolites. Accordingly, the present invention also encompasses the partially and fully deuterated compounds of the invention. The term hydrogen also encompasses deuterium.


The therapeutic use of compounds according to the invention, their pharmacologically acceptable salts, solvates and hydrates, respectively, as well as formulations and pharmaceutical compositions also lie within the scope of the present invention. The pharmaceutical compositions according to the present invention may comprise at least one compound of the invention as an active ingredient and, optionally, carrier substances and/or adjuvants.


The present invention also relates to prodrugs which are composed of a compound of the invention and at least one pharmacologically acceptable protective group which will be cleaved off under physiological conditions, such as an alkoxy-, arylalkyloxy-, acyl-, acyloxymethyl group (e.g. pivaloyloxymethyl), an 2-alkyl-, 2-aryl- or 2-arylalkyl oxycarbonyl-2-alkylidene ethyl group or an acyloxy group as defined herein, e.g. ethoxy, benzyloxy, acetyl or acetyloxy or, especially for a compound of the invention, carrying a hydroxy group (—OH): a sulfate, a phosphate (—OPO3 or —OCH2OPO3) or an ester of an amino acid. For example, compositions may contain pro-drugs of the hydroxy group of a compound of the invention.


As used herein, the term pharmaceutically acceptable ester especially refers to esters which hydrolyze in vivo and include those that break down readily in the human body to leave the parent compound or a salt thereof. Suitable ester groups include, for example, those derived from pharmaceutically acceptable aliphatic carboxylic acids, particularly alkanoic, alkenoic, cycloalkanoic and alkanedioic acids, in which each alkyl or alkenyl moiety advantageously has not more than 6 carbon atoms. Examples of particular esters include, but are not limited to, formates, acetates, propionates, butyrates, acrylates and ethylsuccinates.


The present invention also relates to a prodrug, a biohydrolyzable ester, a biohydrolyzable amide, a polymorph, tautomer, stereoisomer, metabolite, N-oxide, biohydrolyzable carbamate, biohydrolyzable ether, physiologically functional derivative, atropisomer, or in vivo-hydrolysable precursor, diastereomer or mixture of diastereomers, chemically protected form, affinity reagent, complex, chelate and a stereoisomer of the compounds of the invention.


As mentioned above, therapeutically useful agents that contain compounds of the invention, their solvates, salts or formulations are also comprised in the scope of the present invention. In general, compounds of the invention will be administered by using the known and acceptable modes known in the art, either alone or in combination with any other therapeutic agent.


For oral administration such therapeutically useful agents can be administered by one of the following routes: oral, e.g. as tablets, dragees, coated tablets, pills, semisolids, soft or hard capsules, for example soft and hard gelatin capsules, aqueous or oily solutions, emulsions, suspensions or syrups, parenteral including intravenous, intramuscular and subcutaneous injection, e.g. as an injectable solution or suspension, rectal as suppositories, by inhalation or insufflation, e.g. as a powder formulation, as microcrystals or as a spray (e.g. liquid aerosol), transdermal, for example via an transdermal delivery system (TDS) such as a plaster containing the active ingredient or intranasal. For the production of such tablets, pills, semisolids, coated tablets, dragees and hard, e.g. gelatin capsules, the therapeutically useful product may be mixed with pharmaceutically inert, inorganic or organic excipients as are e.g. lactose, sucrose, glucose, gelatine, malt, silica gel, starch or derivatives thereof, tale, stearinic acid or their salts, dried skim milk, and the like. For the production of soft capsules one may use excipients as are e.g. vegetable, petroleum animal or synthetic oils, wax, fat, polyols. For the production of liquid solutions, emulsions or suspensions or syrups one may use as excipients e.g. water, alcohols, aqueous saline, aqueous dextrose, polyols, glycerin, lipids, phospholipids, cyclodextrins, vegetable, petroleum, animal or synthetic oils. Particularly useful are lipids, such as phospholipids (e.g., natural origin and/or with a particle size between 300 to 350 nm) in phosphate buffered saline (pH=7 to 8, e.g., 7.4). For suppositories one may use excipients as are e.g. vegetable, petroleum, animal or synthetic oils, wax, fat and polyols. For aerosol formulations one may use compressed gases suitable for this purpose, as are e.g. oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide. The pharmaceutically useful agents may also contain additives for conservation, stabilization, e.g. UV stabilizers, emulsifiers, sweetener, aromatizers, salts to change the osmotic pressure, buffers, coating additives and antioxidants.


In general, in the case of oral or parenteral administration to adult humans weighing approximately 80 kg, a daily dosage of about 10 mg to about 10,000 mg, or from about 20 mg to about 1,000 mg, should be appropriate, although the upper limit may be exceeded when indicated.


The daily dosage can be administered as a single dose or in divided doses, or for parenteral administration, it may be given as continuous infusion or subcutaneous injection.

Compounds of this invention can be synthesized by the methods depicted in the general reaction Schemes shown below.


The following Schemes, i.e., Schemes 1 and 2, represent general synthetic methods for some of the compounds in this invention, i.e., compounds of formula (A) (B) (C) (D) (E) (F) (G) (H) (I), wherein R1, R2, X, Y, Z1, Z2, Z3, W1, W2, V, L are the appropriate choices of, or appropriate chemical precursors for, the corresponding functional groups as defined in Formula (I) and (II) above.

In Scheme 1, starting material T (X, X′=halo) was either purchased from commercial sources or prepared according to known literature methods. SnAr displacement reaction of compounds T with appropriate R2NH2 led to the formation of intermediates S-3. Starting material S-1 (Y=halo or NO2) was either purchased from commercial sources or prepared according to known literature methods. Intermediates A-1 were prepared from S-1 through coupling reaction (for example, Buchwald-Hartwig coupling) followed by the N-deprotection, or through nitro group reduction. Reacting A-1 with S-3 under appropriate displacement reaction conditions resulted in formation of compounds of formula A. Intermediates B-1 were made from S-1 through conventional functional group transformations (e.g. coupling reaction such as Buchwald-Hartwig and Heck reaction, amide formation and etc.). B-2 could be accessed from B-1 through Buchwald-Hartwig coupling reaction and then N-deprotection when —Y or —Z1=halo or through direct nitro group reduction when —Y or —Z1=—NO2. Similarly, SnAr reaction between B-2 and S-3 led to the formation of compounds of formula B. Compounds of formula C were synthesized through the similar strategy described above for compounds of formula B, except that in the synthesis of intermediates C-1, the functional group transformation from Z1 to W2 were realized through either a coupling reaction (for example, Buchwald-Hartwig coupling and Heck reaction) or amide formation. Compounds D-1 and E-1 featuring N-substituted pyrazoles were synthesized from S-1 through direct alkylation, acylation or sulfonylation. The resulting products were subjected to further transformations (for example, Buchwald-Hartwig coupling followed by N-deprotection, or nitro group reduction) to provide intermediates D-2 and E-2 respectively. Reacting D-2 or E-2 with S-3 under SnAr condition completed the synthesis of compounds of formula D or E respectively. Intermediates F-1 were prepared from E-1 via coupling reactions with appropriate chemical counterparts (e.g. Buchwald-Hartwig reaction, Fleck reaction and etc.). Subsequent transformations from —Y to —NH2 group led to the formation of intermediates F-2, which reacted with intermediate S-3 to provide compounds of formula F. SnAr displacement reaction between intermediates F-2 and intermediate T generated intermediates G-1, which were converted to compounds of formula G through the replacement of X′ by various R2NH2.

In Scheme 2, starting material S-2 (L=halo) was either purchased from commercial sources or prepared according to known literature methods. Functional group Y was converted to amino (NH2) group either through coupling reaction with appropriate reacting partners (when L=halo, for example, Buchwald-Hartwig coupling), followed with deprotection as needed, or, via direct reduction of nitro group in S-2 (when L=NO2). The resulting amino intermediate H-1 was further reacted with S-3 to provide compounds of formula H. Following same synthetic strategy, compounds of formula I was also made from S-2, except that an additional step was involved for indazole ring substituent transformation (from Z2 in S-2 to W1 in I-1) via global reactions (for example, Buchwald-Hartwig coupling).


Representative compounds of Formula (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H and I), or salts thereof, are disclosed in Table 1. Although Table 1 may show a specific salt of a compound of Formula (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H and I), those skilled in the art will be able to recognize the parent compounds (wherein the “parent compound” is a compound without a salt moiety present), and other salts, such as pharmaceutically acceptable salts, of those compounds enumerated in Table 1
