Abstract
Provided herein are small molecule protein kinase modulators, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such, and their uses in treating one or more conditions.
Description
BACKGROUND

The more than 523 typical and atypical kinases in the human kinome represent a constellation of enzymes that catalyze the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to a variety of amino acid residues, such as tyrosine, serine, and threonine. By so doing, these enzymes and their interrelated networks are effectors of cellular signal transduction. In particular, receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) coupled with their downstream intracellular kinases and phosphatases mediated cascades and feedback loops establish critical conduits for the transfer and regulation of signals from the cell exterior into the nucleus where transcriptional regulation takes place. Phosphate transfer to specific sites on proteins results in enzyme activation or inactivation, changes in conformation, increased or decreased affinity for other proteins, appropriate localization, and in some cases targeting of proteins for degradation by the proteosome. Kinase inhibitors, design strategies, and various mechanisms of inhibition have been extensively reviewed [Zhang J., et. al. Nature Reviews Cancer (2009) 9: 28-39; Blanc J. et. al., Anti-Cancer Agents in Med. Chem. (2013) 13, 17 pages; Gross S. et. al., J. Clin. Invest. (2015) 125(5); 1780-9; Cosgarea I. et. al., J. der Deutsch. Dermatol. Gesellschaft, (2017) 887-93, DOI: 10.1111/ddg.13321]. In addition, mechanistically similar lipid kinases, such as PI3Ks and SPK1, also contribute to the regulatory process (Brown J. R., et. al., BMC Evolutionary Biology (2011) 11(4): 1471-2148; Alvarez S. E., et. al., Nature (2010) 465: 1084-1088).


Because these processes regulate essential functions in cell growth, proliferation, differentiation and development, division, adhesion, angiogenesis, stress responses, cell-cell or cell-matrix interactions, short range contact-mediated axional guidance and mitogenesis, the activities of RTKs and their downstream kinase partners in signal transduction are tightly regulated and balanced through control of external receptor ligands as well as expression of receptors, receptor antagonists, decoy receptors, and through redundancies or crosstalk between signaling pathways. Therefore, the aberrant expression of kinases or activating mutations in kinases, inactivating mutations in negative regulators, and alterations in phosphatase expression or activity, are known to participate in a variety of diseases, including many cancers.


SUMMARY

Provided herein are compounds having the Formula I.

and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, wherein R1, R2, R3, X, m, X1 and q are as defined herein. These compounds act as modulators of protein kinase (e.g., kinase inhibitors) and are useful in treating conditions responsive to the inhibition of protein kinase (e.g., cancer). See e.g., Table 1 and 2.


In one aspect, the (4-fluorophenyl)pyrazolyl group on compounds of Formula I was found to be important for type II kinase inhibitors. It is contemplated that such compounds provide an alternative binding mode, compared to traditional type II inhibitors, which provides an alternative method for addressing kinase selectivity.


Also provided are pharmaceutically acceptable compositions comprising the disclosed protein kinase inhibitors.

In some aspects, treatment may be administered after one or more symptoms have developed, i.e., therapeutic treatment. In other aspects, treatment may be administered in the absence of symptoms. For example, treatment may be administered to a susceptible individual prior to the onset of symptoms (e.g., in light of a history of symptoms and/or in light of exposure to a particular organism, or other susceptibility factors), i.e., prophylactic treatment. Treatment may also be continued after symptoms have resolved, for example to delay their recurrence.

Biochemical Assays
1. Kinase Panel

The disclosed compounds were tested for activity against a panel of at least 300 kinases. Kinase panel screening was conducted by Nanosyn (Santa Clara, CA 95051) using an enzymatic inhibition assay accepted as valid by those skilled in the art (e.g., the Caliper LabChip® mobility shift assay, an ADP detection assay, or time-resolved fluorescence detection technology. Compounds were screened at a concentration of 5 μM using an ATP concentration at the Km for each of the respective kinases and a 30-minute pre-incubation time-point.


A selection of kinases from that panel in which one or more of the disclosed compounds showed inhibition of kinase activity is shown below in Tables 1-4. In Table 1 and 2, kinase inhibition is classified by: A=95% or greater, B=90%-94%, C=80%-89%, and D=79% and less with a compound concentration of 5 JIM. In Table 3 and 4, kinase inhibition is reported in terms of IC50 values corresponding to A=less than 500 nm, B=500 nm to less than 1 μM, C=1 μM to less than 10 μM, and D=10 μM or greater using a compound concentration of 5 μM.
