Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention is directed to compounds with N-containing cycloalkyl-substituted aminothiazole nuclei that demonstrate an anti-proliferative activity such as antitumor activity, to processes for preparing these compounds and to pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds. The invention is also directed to the therapeutic or prophylactic use of such compounds and compositions, and to methods of treating cancer, viral, microbial, and/or parasitic colonization/infection as well as other disease states associated with unwanted cellular proliferation, by administering effective amounts of such compounds.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Cell proliferation occurs in response to various stimuli and may stem from de-regulation of the cell division cycle (or cell cycle), the process by which cells multiply and divide. Hyperproliferative disease states, including cancer, are characterized by cells rampantly winding through the cell cycle with uncontrolled vigor due to, for example, damage to the genes that directly or indirectly regulate progression through the cycle. Thus, agents that modulate the cell cycle, and thus hyperproliferation, could be used to treat various disease states associated with uncontrolled or unwanted cell proliferation. In addition to cancer chemotherapeutic agents, cell cycle inhibitors are also proposed as antiparasitics (See, Gray et al., Curr. Med. Chem. 6, 859-875 (1999)) and recently demonstrated as potential antivirals (See, Schang et al., J. Virol. 74, 2107-2120 (2000)). Moreover, the applicability of antiproliferative agents may be expanded to treating cardiovascular maladies such as artherosclerosis or restenosis (See Braun-Dullaeus et al., Circulation, 98, 82-89 (1998)), and states of inflammation, such as arthritis (See, Taniguchi et al., Nature Med., 5, 760-767(1999)) or psoriasis. Recently, chemotherapy induced alopecia was alleviated in rats. (See Davis, et al., Science, 291, 134-137 (2001).


Mechanisms of cell proliferation are under active investigation at cellular and molecular levels. At the cellular level, de-regulation of signaling pathways, loss of cell cycle controls, unbridled angiogenesis or stimulation of inflammatory pathways are under scrutiny, while at the molecular level, these processes are modulated by various proteins, among which protein kinases are prominent suspects. Overall abatement of proliferation may also result from programmed cell death, or apoptosis, which is also regulated via multiple pathways, some involving proteolytic enzyme proteins.


Among the candidate regulatory proteins, protein kinases are a family of enzymes that catalyze phosphorylation of the hydroxyl group of specific tyrosine, serine or threonine residues in proteins. Typically, such phosphorylation dramatically perturbs the function of the protein, and thus protein kinases are pivotal in the regulation of a wide variety of cellular processes.


Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are serine-threonine protein kinases that play critical roles in regulating the transitions between different phases of the cell-cycle, such as the progression from a quiescent stage in G1 (the gap between mitosis and the onset of DNA replication for a new round of cell division) to S (the period of active DNA synthesis), or the progression from G2 to M phase, in which active mitosis and cell-division occurs. (See, e.g., the articles compiled in Science, 274, 1643-1677 (1996); and Ann. Rev. Cell Dev. Biol., 13, 261-291 (1997)). CDK complexes are formed through association of a regulatory cyclin subunit (e.g., cyclin A, B1, B2, D1, D2, D3, and E) and a catalytic kinase subunit (e.g., CDK1, CDK2, CDK4, CDK5, and CDK6). As the name implies, the CDKs display an absolute dependence on the cyclin subunit in order to phosphorylate their target substrates, and different kinase/cyclin pairs function to regulate progression through specific phases of the cell-cycle.


Aberrations in this control system, particularly those that affect the function of CDK4 and CDK2, have been implicated in the advancement of cells to the highly proliferative state characteristic of malignancies, particularly familial melanomas, esophageal carcinomas, and pancreatic cancers. (See, e.g., Hall et al., Adv. Cancer Res., 68, 67-108 (1996); Kamb, Trends in Genetics, 11, 136-140 (1995); Kamb et al., Science, 264, 436-440 (1994)).


Because CDK4 may serve as a general activator of cell division in most cells and complexes of CDK4/cyclin D and CDK2/cyclin E govern the early G1 phase of the cell cycle, CDK4 or CDK2 inhibitors may be used as anti-proliferative agents. Also, the pivotal roles of cyclin E/CDK2 and cyclin B/CDK1 in the G1/S phase and G2/M transitions, respectively, offer additional targets for therapeutic intervention in suppressing deregulated cell cycle progression.


A large number of small molecule ATP-site antagonists have been identified as CDK inhibitors. (See, Webster, Exp. Opin. Invest. Drugs, 7, 865-887 (1998), Stover, Et al., Curr. Opin. Drug Disc. Dev., 2, 274-285(1999), Gray et al., Curr. Med. Chem., 6, 859-875 (1999), Sielecki, et al., J. Med. Chem., 43, 1-18 (2000), Crews, et al., Curr. Opin. Chem. Biol., 4, 47-53 (2000), Buolamwini, Curr. Pharm. Des., 6, 379-392 (2000), Rosania, et al., Exp. Opin. Ther. Pat., 10, 215-230 (2000), fisher, et al., Curr. Med. Chem., 7, 1213-1245 (2000), and Fry, et al., Exp. Opin. Oncol. Endocrine Metab. Invest. Drugs, 2, 40-59 (2000).


In addition to the protein kinases identified above, many other protein kinases have been considered to be therapeutic targets, and numerous publications disclose inhibitors of kinase activity, as reviewed in the following: McMahon et al., Curr. Opin. Drug Disc. Dev., 1, 131-146 (1998), Strawn et al., Exp. Opin. Invest. Drugs, 7, 553-573 (1998), Adams et al., Curr. Opin. Drug Disc. Dev., 2, 96-109 (1999), Stover et al., Curr. Opin. Drug Disc. Dev., 2, 274-285 (1999), Toledo et al., Curr. Med. Chem., 6, 775-805 (1999), and Garcia-Echeverria, et al., Med. Res. Rev., 20, 28-57 (2000).


There is still a need, however, for more potent inhibitors of protein kinases. Moreover, as is understood by those skilled in the art, it is desirable for kinase inhibitors to possess both high affinity for the target kinase as well as high selectivity versus other protein kinases.


Among others, the following patent publications disclose thiazole compounds: WIPO International Publication No. WO 99/21845 discloses 2,4-diaminothiazoles as CDK inhibitors; WO 99/62890 teaches isothiazoles as anticancer agents; WO 98/04536 describes thiazoles as protein kinase C inhibitors; EP 816362A(1998) discloses thiazoles as principally for dopamino D4 receptor antagonists. Aminothiazoles were reported in WO 99/65844 and WO 99/24416, and aminobenzothiazoles in WO 99/24035. WO 00/17175 describes other aminothiazoles as p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase inhibitors, and WO 00/26202, WO 00/26203, and U.S. Pat. No. 6,114,365 describe aminothiazoles and ureidothiazoles as anti-tumor agents.


WIPO International Publication No. WO 99/21845 teaches 4-aminothiazole derivatives containing a substituted aryls or heteroaryls. The present invention is based on the discovery that thiazole compounds with 2-amino group substituted with N-containing cycloalkyl often show surprisingly higher activity against protein kinases and more potent cell growth inhibition over the known compounds. Thus, the inventive compounds often show more potent cell growth inhibition.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Accordingly, an objective of the invention is to discover potent anti-proliferative agents. Another objective of the invention is to discover effective inhibitors of protein kinases.


These and other objectives of the invention, which will become apparent from the following description, have been achieved by the discovery of the 4-aminothiazole compounds with 2-amino group substituted with N-containing cycloalkyl, pharmaceutically acceptable prodrugs, pharmaceutically active metabolites, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof (such compounds, prodrugs, metabolites and salts are collectively referred to as “agents”) described below, that modulate and/or inhibit cell growth.


Thus, the inventive agents and pharmaceutical compositions containing such agents are expected to be useful in treating various diseases or disorder states associated with uncontrolled or unwanted cellular proliferation such as cancer, autoimmune diseases, viral diseases, fungal diseases, neurodegenerative disorders and cardiovascular diseases.


Further, the agents modulate and/or inhibit the activity of protein kinases, for example one or more CDKs such as CDK2, CDK4 and/or CDK6, or cyclin complexes thereof, and/or one or more LCKs, VEGF or FGFs. Thus, the pharmaceutical compositions containing such agents are useful in treating diseases mediated by kinase activity, such as cancer.

The heterocyclic groups include benzo-fused ring systems and ring systems substituted with one or two oxo (═O) moieties such as pyrrolidin-2-one. An example of a 5 membered heterocyclic group is thiazolyl, an example of a 10 membered heterocyclic group is quinolinyl, and an example of a 13 membered heterocyclic group is a carbazole group. Examples of non-aromatic heterocyclic groups are pyrrolidinyl, piperidino, morpholino, thiomorpholino and piperazinyl. Examples of aromatic heterocyclic groups are pyridinyl, imidazolyl, pyrimidinyl, pyrazolyl, triazolyl, pyrazinyl, tetrazolyl, furyl, thienyl, isoxazolyl and thiazolyl. Heterocyclic groups having a fused benzene ring include benzimidazolyl, benzofuranyl, and benzo[1,3]dioxolyl.


The term “alcohol” refers to the radical —R—OH where R is alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, Ar, heteroaryl, heterocycloalkyl, or cycloalkyl as defined above. Examples of alcohols include methanol, ethanol, propanol, phenol and the like.


The term “acyl” represents —C(O)R, —C(O)OR, —OC(O)R or —OC(O)OR where R is alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, Ar, heteroaryl, heterocycloalkyl, or cycloalkyl as defined as above.


The term “amide” refers to the radical —C(O)N(R′)(R″) where R′ R″ are each independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, —OH, alkoxy, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, heteroaryl, aryl as defined above; or R′ and R″ cyclize together with the nitrogen to form a heterocycloalkyl or heteroaryl as defined above.


The term “substituted” as used herein means that the group in question, e.g., alkyl group, etc., may bear one or more substituents.


The alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, heterocyclyl groups and the substituents containing these groups, as defined hereinabove, may be optionally substituted by at least one other substituent. The term “optionally substituted” is intended to expressly indicate that the specified group is unsubstituted or substituted by one or more substituents from the list above. Various groups may be unsubstituted or substituted (i.e., they are optionally substituted) as indicated.


If the substituents themselves are not compatible with the synthetic methods of this invention, the substituent may be protected with a suitable protecting group that is stable to the reaction conditions used in these methods. The protecting group may be removed at a suitable point in the reaction sequence of the method to provide a desired intermediate or target compound. Suitable protecting groups and the methods for protecting and de-protecting different substituents using such suitable protecting groups are well known to those skilled in the art; examples of which may be found in T. Greene and P. Wuts, Protecting Groups in Chemical Synthesis (3rd ed.), John Wiley & Sons, NY (1999), which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. In some instances, a substituent may be specifically selected to be reactive under the reaction conditions used in the methods of this, invention. Under these circumstances, the reaction conditions convert the selected substituent into another substituent that is either useful in an intermediate compound in the methods of this invention or is a desired substituent in a target compound.


The compounds of the present invention may have asymmetric carbon atoms. Such diasteromeric mixtures can be separated into their individual diastereomers on the basis of their physical chemical differences by methods known to those skilled in the art, for example, by chromatography or fractional crystallization. Enantiomers can be separated by converting the enantiomeric mixtures into a diastereomric mixture by reaction with an appropriate optically active compound (e.g., alcohol), separating the diastereomers and converting (e.g., hydrolyzing) the individual diastereomers to the corresponding pure enantiomers. All such isomers, including diastereomer mixtures and pure enantiomers are considered as part of the invention.


The compounds of present invention may in certain instances exist as tautomers. This invention relates to the use of all such tautomers and mixtures thereof.


The term “prodrug”, as used herein, unless otherwise indicated, means compounds that are drug precursors, which following administration, release the drug in vivo via some chemical or physiological process (e.g., a prodrug on being brought to the physiological pH is converted to the desired drug form).


Prodrugs include compounds wherein an amino acid residue, or a polypeptide chain of two or more (e.g., two, three or four) amino acid residues is covalently joined through an amide or ester bond to a free amino, hydroxy or carboxylic acid group of compounds of formula I. The amino acid residues include but are not limited to the 20 naturally occurring amino acids commonly designated by three letter symbols and also includes 4-hydroxyproline, hydroxylysine, demosine, isodemosine, 3-methylhistidine, norvalin, beta-alanine, gamma-aminobutyric acid, citrulline homocysteine, homoserine, ornithine and methionine sulfone. Additional types of prodrugs are also encompassed. For instance, free carboxyl groups can be derivatized as amides or alkyl esters. Free hydroxy groups may be derivatized using groups including but not limited to hemisuccinates, phosphate esters, dimethylaminoacetates, and phosphoryloxymethyloxycarbonyls, as outlined in Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 1996, 19, 115. Carbamate prodrugs of hydroxy and amino groups are also included, as are carbonate prodrugs, sulfonate esters and sulfate esters of hydroxy groups. Derivatization of hydroxy groups as (acyloxy)methyl and (acyloxy)ethyl ethers wherein the acyl group may be an alkyl ester, optionally substituted with groups including but not limited to ether, amine and carboxylic acid functionalities, or where the acyl group is an amino acid ester as described above, are also encompassed. Prodrugs of this type are described in J. Med. Chem. 1996, 39, 10. Free amines can also be derivatized as amides, sulfonamides or phosphonamides. All of these prodrug moieties may incorporate groups including but not limited to ether, amine and carboxylic acid functionalities.


It will be appreciated that any solvate (e.g. hydrate) form of compounds of formula I and prodrugs thereof can be used for the purpose of the present invention.


“A pharmaceutically acceptable salt” is intended to mean a salt that retains the biological effectiveness of the free acids and bases of the specified compound and that is not biologically or otherwise undesirable. A compound of the invention may possess a sufficiently acidic, a sufficiently basic, or both functional groups, and accordingly react with any of a number of inorganic or organic bases, and inorganic and organic acids, to form a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. Exemplary pharmaceutically acceptable salts include those salts prepared by reaction of the compounds of the present invention with a mineral or organic acid or an inorganic base, such as salts including sulfates, pyrosulfates, bisulfates, sulfites, bisulfites, phosphates, monohydrogenphosphates, dihydrogenphosphates, metaphosphates, pyrophosphates, chlorides, bromides, iodides, acetates, propionates, decanoates, caprylates, acrylates, formates, isobutyrates, caproates, heptanoates, propiolates, oxalates, malonates, succinates, suberates, sebacates, fumarates, maleates, butyne-1,4-dioates, hexyne-1,6-dioates, benzoates, chlorobenzoates, methylbenzoates, dinitrobenzoates, hydroxybenzoates, methoxybenzoates, phthalates, sulfonates, xylenesulfonates, phenylacetates, phenylpropionates, phenylbutyrates, citrates, lactates, γ-hydroxybutyrates, glycolates, tartrates, methane-sulfonates, propanesulfonates, naphthalene-1-sulfonates, naphthalene-2-sulfonates, and mandelates.


If the inventive compound is a base, the desired pharmaceutically acceptable salt may be prepared by any suitable method available in the art, for example, treatment of the free base with an inorganic acid, such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, sulfamic acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid and the like, or with an organic acid, such as acetic acid, phenylacetic acid, propionic acid, stearic acid, lactic acid, ascorbic acid, maleic acid, hydroxymaleic acid, isethionic acid, succinic acid, mandelic acid, fumaric acid, malonic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, glycolic acid, salicylic acid, a pyranosidyl acid, such as glucuronic acid or galacturonic acid, an alpha-hydroxy acid, such as citric acid or tartaric acid, an amino acid, such as aspartic acid or glutamic acid, an aromatic acid, such as benzoic acid, 2-acetoxybenzoic acid or cinnamic acid, a sulfonic acid, such as p-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid or ethanesulfonic acid, or the like.


If the inventive compound is an acid, the desired pharmaceutically acceptable salt may be prepared by any suitable method, for example, treatment of the free acid with an inorganic or organic base, such as an amine (primary, secondary or tertiary), an alkali metal hydroxide or alkaline earth metal hydroxide, or the like. Illustrative examples of suitable salts include organic salts derived from amino acids, such as glycine and arginine, ammonia, carbonates, bicarbonates, primary, secondary, and tertiary amines, and cyclic amines, such as benzylamines, pyrrolidines, piperidine, morpholine and piperazine, and inorganic salts derived from sodium, calcium, potassium, magnesium, manganese, iron, copper, zinc, aluminum and lithium.


Pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention may, alternatively or in addition to a compound of Formula I, comprise as an active ingredient pharmaceutically acceptable prodrugs, pharmaceutically active metabolites, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts of such compounds and metabolites. Such compounds, prodrugs, multimers, salts, and metabolites are sometimes referred to herein collectively as “active agents” or “agents.”


In the case of agents that are solids, it is understood by those skilled in the art that the inventive compounds and salts may exist in different crystal or polymorphic forms, all of which are intended to be within the scope of the present invention and specified formulas.


Therapeutically effective amounts of the active agents of the invention may be used to treat diseases mediated by modulation or regulation of various kinases, for example protein kinases. An “effective amount” is intended to mean that amount of an agent that significantly inhibits proliferation and/or prevents de-differentiation of a eukaryotic cell, e.g., a mammalian, insect, plant or fungal cell, and is effective for the indicated utility, e.g., specific therapeutic treatment.


The amount of a given agent that will correspond to such an amount will vary depending upon factors such as the particular compound, disease condition and its severity, the identity (e.g., weight) of the subject or host in need of treatment, but can nevertheless be routinely determined in a manner known in the art according to the particular circumstances surrounding the case, including, e.g., the specific agent being administered, the route of administration, the condition being treated, and the subject or host being treated.


Agents that potently regulate, modulate, or inhibit cell proliferation are preferred. For certain mechanisms, inhibition of the protein kinase activity associated with CDK complexes, among others, and those which inhibit angiogenesis and/or inflammation are preferred. The present invention is further directed to methods of modulating or inhibiting protein kinase activity, for example in mammalian tissue, by administering an inventive agent. The activity of agents as anti-proliferatives is easily measured by known methods, for example by using whole cell cultures in an MTT assay. The activity of the inventive agents as modulators of protein kinase activity, such as the activity of kinases, may be measured by any of the methods available to those skilled in the art, including in vivo and/or in vitro assays. Examples of suitable assays for activity measurements include those described in WIPO International Publication No. WO 99/21845; Parast et al., Biochemistry, 37, 16788-16801 (1998); Connell-Crowley and Harpes, Cell Cycle: Materials and Methods, Michele Pagano, ed. Springer, Berlin, Germany (1995); WIPO International Publication No. WO 97/34876; and WIPO International Publication No. WO 96/14843. These properties may be assessed, for example, by using one or more of the biological testing procedures set out in the examples below.


The active agents of the invention may be formulated into pharmaceutical compositions as described below. Pharmaceutical compositions of this invention comprise an effective modulating, regulating, or inhibiting amount of a compound of Formula I and an inert, pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent. In one embodiment of the pharmaceutical compositions, efficacious levels of the inventive agents are provided so as to provide therapeutic benefits involving anti-proliferative ability. By “efficacious levels” is meant levels in which proliferation is inhibited, or controlled. These compositions are prepared in unit-dosage form appropriate for the mode of administration, e.g., parenteral or oral administration.


An inventive agent can be administered in conventional dosage form prepared by combining a therapeutically effective amount of an agent (e.g., a compound of Formula I) as an active ingredient with appropriate pharmaceutical carriers or diluents according to conventional procedures. These procedures may involve mixing, granulating and compressing or dissolving the ingredients as appropriate to the desired preparation.


The pharmaceutical carrier employed may be either a solid or liquid. Exemplary of solid carriers are lactose, sucrose, talc, gelatin, agar, pectin, acacia, magnesium stearate, stearic acid and the like. Exemplary of liquid carriers are syrup, peanut oil, olive oil, water and the like. Similarly, the carrier or diluent may include time-delay or time-release material known in the art, such as glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate alone or with a wax, ethylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, methylmethacrylate and the like.


A variety of pharmaceutical forms can be employed. Thus, if a solid carrier is used, the preparation can be tableted, placed in a hard gelatin capsule in powder or pellet form or in the form of a troche or lozenge. The amount of solid carrier may vary, but generally will be from about 25 mg to about 1 g. If a liquid carrier is used, the preparation will be in the form of syrup, emulsion, soft gelatin capsule, sterile injectable solution or suspension in an ampoule or vial or non-aqueous liquid suspension.


To obtain a stable water-soluble dose form, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of an inventive agent can be dissolved in an aqueous solution of an organic or inorganic acid, such as 0.3M solution of succinic acid or citric acid. If a soluble salt form is not available, the agent may be dissolved in a suitable cosolvent or combinations of cosolvents. Examples of suitable cosolvents include, but are not limited to, alcohol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol 300, polysorbate 80, glycerin and the like in concentrations ranging from 0-60% of the total volume. In an exemplary embodiment, a compound of Formula I is dissolved in DMSO and diluted with water. The composition may also be in the form of a solution of a salt form of the active ingredient in an appropriate aqueous vehicle such as water or isotonic saline or dextrose solution.


It will be appreciated that the actual dosages of the agents used in the compositions of this invention will vary according to the particular complex being used, the particular composition formulated, the mode of administration and the particular site, host and disease being treated. Optimal dosages for a given set of conditions can be ascertained by those skilled in the art using conventional dosage-determination tests in view of the experimental data for an agent. For oral administration, an exemplary daily dose generally employed is from about 0.001 to about 1000 mg/kg of body weight, with courses of treatment repeated at appropriate intervals. Administration of prodrugs is typically dosed at weight levels which are chemically equivalent to the weight levels of the fully active form.


The compositions of the invention may be manufactured in manners generally known for preparing pharmaceutical compositions, e.g., using conventional techniques such as mixing, dissolving, granulating, dragee-making, levigating, emulsifying, encapsulating, entrapping or lyophilizing. Pharmaceutical compositions may be formulated in a conventional manner using one or more physiologically acceptable carriers, which may be selected from excipients and auxiliaries that facilitate processing of the active compounds into preparations which can be used pharmaceutically.


Proper formulation is dependent upon the route of administration chosen. For injection, the agents of the invention may be formulated into aqueous solutions, preferably in physiologically compatible buffers such as Hanks's solution, Ringer's solution, or physiological saline buffer. For transmucosal administration, penetrants appropriate to the barrier to be permeated are used in the formulation. Such penetrants are generally known in the art.


For oral administration, the compounds can be formulated readily by combining the active compounds with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers known in the art. Such carriers enable the compounds of the invention to be formulated as tablets, pills, dragees, capsules, liquids, gels, syrups, slurries, suspensions and the like, for oral ingestion by a patient to be treated. Pharmaceutical preparations for oral use can be obtained using a solid excipient in admixture with the active ingredient (agent), optionally grinding the resulting mixture, and processing the mixture of granules after adding suitable auxiliaries, if desired, to obtain tablets or dragee cores. Suitable excipients include: fillers such as sugars, including lactose, sucrose, mannitol, or sorbitol; and cellulose preparations, for example, maize starch, wheat starch, rice starch, potato starch, gelatin, gum, methyl cellulose, hydroxypropylmethyl-cellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, or polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). If desired, disintegrating agents may be added, such as crosslinked polyvinyl pyrrolidone, agar, or alginic acid or a salt thereof such as sodium alginate.


Dragee cores are provided with suitable coatings. For this purpose, concentrated sugar solutions may be used, which may optionally contain gum arabic, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, Carbopol gel, polyethylene glycol, and/or titanium dioxide, lacquer solutions, and suitable organic solvents or solvent mixtures. Dyestuffs or pigments may be added to the tablets or dragee coatings for identification or to characterize different combinations of active agents.


Pharmaceutical preparations which can be used orally include push-fit capsules made of gelatin, as well as soft, sealed capsules made of gelatin and a plasticizer, such as glycerol or sorbitol. The push-fit capsules can contain the active ingredients in admixture with fillers such as lactose, binders such as starches, and/or lubricants such as talc or magnesium stearate, and, optionally, stabilizers. In soft capsules, the active agents may be dissolved or suspended in suitable liquids, such as fatty oils, liquid paraffin, or liquid polyethylene glycols. In addition, stabilizers may be added. All formulations for oral administration should be in dosages suitable for such administration. For buccal administration, the compositions may take the form of tablets or lozenges formulated in conventional manner.


For administration intranasally or by inhalation, the compounds for use according to the present invention are conveniently delivered in the form of an aerosol spray presentation from pressurized packs or a nebuliser, with the use of a suitable propellant, e.g., dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane, dichlorotetrafluoroethane, carbon dioxide or other suitable gas. In the case of a pressurized aerosol, the dosage unit may be determined by providing a valve to deliver a metered amount. Capsules and cartridges of gelatin for use in an inhaler or insufflator and the like may be formulated containing a powder mix of the compound and a suitable powder base such as lactose or starch.


The compounds may be formulated for parenteral administration by injection, e.g., by bolus injection or continuous infusion. Formulations for injection may be presented in unit-dosage form, e.g., in ampoules or in multi-dose containers, with an added preservative. The compositions may take such forms as suspensions, solutions or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and may contain formulatory agents such as suspending, stabilizing and/or dispersing agents.


Pharmaceutical formulations for parenteral administration include aqueous solutions of the active agents in water-soluble form. Additionally, suspensions of the agents may be prepared as appropriate oily injection suspensions. Suitable lipophilic solvents or vehicles include fatty oils such as sesame oil, or synthetic fatty acid esters, such as ethyl oleate or triglycerides, or liposomes. Aqueous injection suspensions may contain substances which increase the viscosity of the suspension, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, sorbitol, or dextran. Optionally, the suspension may also contain suitable stabilizers or agents which increase the solubility of the compounds to allow for the preparation of highly concentrated solutions.


For administration to the eye, the active agent is delivered in a pharmaceutically acceptable ophthalmic vehicle such that the compound is maintained in contact with the ocular surface for a sufficient time period to allow the compound to penetrate the corneal and internal regions of the eye, including, for example, the anterior chamber, posterior chamber, vitreous body, aqueous humor, vitreous humor, cornea, iris/ciliary, lens, choroid/retina and sclera. The pharmaceutically acceptable ophthalmic vehicle may be an ointment, vegetable oil, or an encapsulating material. A compound of the invention may also be injected directly into the vitreous and aqueous humor.


Alternatively, the active agents may be in powder form for constitution with a suitable vehicle, e.g., sterile pyrogen-free water, before use. The compounds may also be formulated in rectal compositions such as suppositories or retention enemas, e.g, containing conventional suppository bases such as cocoa butter or other glycerides.


In addition to the formulations described above, the active agents also can be formulated as a depot preparation. Such long-acting formulations may be administered by implantation (for example, subcutaneously or intramuscularly) or by intramuscular injection. Thus, for example, the compounds may be formulated with suitable polymeric or hydrophobic materials (for example, as an emulsion in an acceptable oil) or ion-exchange resins, or as sparingly soluble derivatives, for example, as a sparingly soluble salt.


An exemplary pharmaceutical carrier for hydrophobic compounds is a cosolvent system comprising benzyl alcohol, a nonpolar surfactant, a water-miscible organic polymer, and an aqueous phase. The cosolvent system may be a VPD co-solvent system. VPD is a solution of 3% w/v benzyl alcohol, 8% w/v of the nonpolar surfactant polysorbate 80, and 65% w/v polyethylene glycol 300, made up to volume in absolute ethanol. The VPD co-solvent system (VPD:5W) contains VPD diluted 1:1 with a 5% dextrose in water solution. This co-solvent system dissolves hydrophobic compounds well, and itself produces low toxicity upon systemic administration. Naturally, the proportions of a co-solvent system may be varied considerably without destroying its solubility and toxicity characteristics. Furthermore, the identity of the co-solvent components may be varied: for example, other low-toxicity nonpolar surfactants may be used instead of polysorbate 80; the fraction size of polyethylene glycol may be varied; other biocompatible polymers may replace polyethylene glycol, e.g. polyvinyl pyrrolidone; and other sugars or polysaccharides may be substituted for dextrose.


Alternatively, other delivery systems for hydrophobic pharmaceutical compounds may be employed. Liposomes and emulsions are known examples of delivery vehicles or carriers for hydrophobic drugs. Certain organic solvents such as dimethylsulfoxide also may be employed, although usually at the cost of greater toxicity. Additionally, the compounds may be delivered using a sustained-release system, such as semipermeable matrices of solid hydrophobic polymers containing the therapeutic agent. Various sustained-release materials have been established and are known by those skilled in the art. Sustained-release capsules may, depending on their chemical nature, release the compounds for a few weeks up to over 100 days. Depending on the chemical nature and the biological stability of the therapeutic reagent, additional strategies for protein stabilization may be employed.


The pharmaceutical compositions also may comprise suitable solid- or gel-phase carriers or excipients. Examples of such carriers or excipients include calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, sugars, starches, cellulose derivatives, gelatin, and polymers such as polyethylene glycols.


Some of the compounds of the invention may be provided as salts with pharmaceutically compatible counter ions. Pharmaceutically compatible salts may be formed with many acids, including hydrochloric, sulfuric, acetic, lactic, tartaric, malic, succinic, etc. Salts tend to be more soluble in aqueous or other protonic solvents than are the corresponding free-base forms.


The active agents of the invention may be useful in combination with known anti-cancer treatments such as, but not limited to, DNA interactive agents such as cisplatin or doxorubicin; topoisomerase II inhibitors such as etoposide, topoisomerase I inhibitors such as CPT-11 or topotecan; tubulin interacting agents such as paclitaxel, docetaxel or the epothilones; hormonal agents such as tamoxifen; thymidilate synthase inhibitors such as 5-fluorouracil; and anti-metalbolites such as methotrexate. They may be administered together or sequentially, and when administered sequentially, the inventive agents may be administered either prior to or after administration of the known anticancer or cytotoxic agent.


The inventive agents may be prepared using the reaction routes and synthesis schemes as described below, employing the general techniques known in the art using starting materials that are readily available. The preparation of preferred compounds of the present invention is described in detail in the following examples, but the artisan will recognize that the chemical reactions described may be readily adapted to prepare a number of other anti-proliferatives or protein kinase inhibitors of the invention. For example, the synthesis of non-exemplified compounds according to the invention may be successfully performed by modifications apparent to those skilled in the art, e.g., by appropriately protecting interfering groups, by changing to other suitable reagents known in the art, or by making routine modifications of reaction conditions. Alternatively, other reactions disclosed herein or generally known in the art will be recognized as having applicability for preparing other compounds of the invention.







DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
EXAMPLES

In the examples described below, unless otherwise indicated, all temperatures are set forth in degrees Celsius and all parts and percentages are by weight. Reagents were purchased from commercial suppliers such as Sigma-Aldrich Chemical Company or Lancaster Synthesis Ltd. and were used without further purification unless otherwise indicated. Tetrahydrofuran (THF) and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) were purchased from Aldrich in Sure Seal bottles and used as received. All solvents were purified using standard methods known to those skilled in the art, unless otherwise indicated.


The reactions set forth below were done generally under a positive pressure of argon at an ambient temperature (unless otherwise stated) in anhydrous solvents, and the reaction flasks were fitted with rubber septa for the introduction of substrates and reagents via syringe. Glassware was oven dried and/or heat dried. Analytical thin layer chromatography (TLC) was performed on glass-backed silica gel 60 F 254 plates from Analtech (0.25 mm), eluted with the appropriate solvent ratios (v/v), and are denoted where appropriate. The reactions were assayed by TLC, NMR, or analytical HPLC and terminated as judged by the consumption of starting material.


Visualization of the TLC plates was done with iodine vapor, ultraviolet illumination, 2% Ce(NH4)4(SO4)4 in 20% aqueous sulfuric acid, 2% ninhydrin in ethanol, or p-anisaldehyde spray reagent, and activated with heat where appropriate. Work-ups were typically done by doubling the reaction volume with the reaction solvent or extraction solvent and then washing with the indicated aqueous solutions using 25% by volume of the extraction volume unless otherwise indicated. Product solutions were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and/or MgSO4 prior to filtration and evaporation of the solvents under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator and noted as solvents removed in vacuo. Hydrogenolysis was done at the pressure indicated in the examples or at ambient pressure. Flash column chromatography (Still et al., J. Org. Chem., 43, 2923 (1978)) was done using Merck silica gel (47-61 μm) with a silica gel crude material ratio of about 20:1 to 50:1, unless otherwise stated.


Reversed phase preparative HPLC purification was performed on Gilson 321 system, using a C18-reversed phase preparative column (Metasil AQ 10μ, C18, 120A 250×21.2 mm, MetaChem), and eluted with a gradient from 0.1% TFA/5% CH3CN/H2O to 0.1% TFA/5% H2O/CH3CN over 20 minutes at a flow rate of 20 ml/min.


For these typically basic compounds, free bases were obtained upon concentration of HPLC fractions, dissolution in ethyl acetate, neutralization upon washing with aqueous Na2CO3, and evaporation in vacuo. For the corresponding trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) salts, TFA was present in the eluant, thus no treatment was necessary, and HPLC fractions were directly lyophilized or concentrated in vacuo. For the corresponding HCl salts, excess aqueous hydrochloric acid was added to enriched HPLC fractions prior to lyophilization or concentration under reduced pressure, unless other procedures were used as otherwise indicated.



1H-NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker or Varian instrument operating at 300 MHz and 13C-NMR spectra were recorded operating at 75 MHz. NMR spectra were obtained as CDCl3 solutions (reported in ppm), using chloroform as the reference standard (7.27 ppm and 77.00 ppm) unless otherwise noted. When peak multiplicities are reported, the following abbreviations are used: s (singlet), d (doublet), t (triplet), q (quartet), m (multiplet), br (broadened multiplet), bs (broadened singlet), dd (doublet of doublets), dt (doublet of triplets). Coupling constants, when given, are reported in Hertz (Hz).


Infrared (IR) spectra were recorded on a Perkin-Elmer FT-IR Spectrometer as neat oils, as KBr pellets, or as CDCl3 solutions, and when given are reported in wave numbers (cm−1). The mass spectra were obtained using LSIMS, FAB, MALDI, or electrospray (ESIMS). All melting points (mp) are uncorrected.


Mass spectrometry (MS) was conducted with various techniques. Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Fourier Transform Mass Spectrometry (MALDI FTMS), was performed on an IonSpec FTMS mass spectrometer. Samples are irradiated with a nitrogen laser (Laser Science Inc.) operated at 337nm and the laser beam is attenuated by a variable attenuator and focused on the sample target. The ions are then differentiated according to their m/z using an ion cyclotron resonance mass analyzer. The electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry experiments were performed on an API 100 Perkin Elmer SCIEX single quadrupole mass spectrometer. Electrospray samples are typically introduced into the mass analyzer at a rate of 4.0 μl/minute. The positive and negative ions, generated by charged droplet evaporation, enter the analyzer through an interface plate and a 100 mm orifice, while the declustering potential is maintained between 50 and 200V to control the collisional energy of the ions entering the mass analyzer. The emitter voltage is typically maintained at 4000V. The liquid chromatography (LC) electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry experiments are performed on a Hewlett-Packard (HP) 1100 MSD single quadrupole mass spectrometer. Electrospray samples are typically introduced into the mass analyzer at a rate of 100 to 1000 μl/minute. The positive and negative ions, generated by charged droplet evaporation, enter the analyzer through a heated capillary plate, while the declustering potential is maintained between 100 and 300V to control the collisional energy of the ions entering the mass analyzer. The emitter voltage is typically maintained at 4000V.


Compounds in accordance with the invention may be prepared in manners analogous to those specifically described below, with the lettered example prefixes (i.e., A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O and P) designating general synthesis schemes.


General routes to the compounds of the invention are described as follows. In these Schemes and its explanations, R1 through R19 have the same meanings as defined above, unless indicated otherwise.

Amino-substituted cycloalkylamines, represented as I-1 in the route labeled Scheme I, are converted in any of numerous standard methods to their corresponding isothiocyanates I-2, typically with thiophosgene, under acidic, basic or neutral conditions, depending on the particular R1 in substrate I-1. The isothiocyanate I-2 is a typical reaction partner in a routine 2,4-diaminothiazole construction (see World Patent Application WO 99/21845 and Gewald, et al., J. Prakt. Chem., 35, 97-104 (1967)). Condensation of cyanamide with isothiocyanate I-2 in the presence of a strong, but hindered tertiary base such as 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) or triethylamine (Et3N) provides the isothiourea anion I-3, which is S-alkylated in situ with a halocarbonyl I-4 to transitory intermediate I-5. Many different halocarbonyl I-4, particularly poly-substituted acetophenones are used, including examples from World Patent Application WO 99/21845, and additional preparations herein. Base-promoted enolization of isothiourea I-5 causes cyclization to furnish diaminothiazole I-6. When the R1 in I-6 is a routine nitrogen protecting group, such as a t-butoxycarbonyl, facile deprotection is produced with standard methods, i.e. trifluoroacetic acid or hydrogen chloride in dioxane, to provide a key, pivotal, late stage, intermediate amine I-7, which was further elaborated in many ways. Of course Scheme 1 may be employed with any R1 group that incorporates the targeted functionality, as long as R1 is a moiety that may withstand the alkaline conditions.


The starting material I-1 for Scheme I are available commercially in many cases, but had to be prepared for selected examples herein, as shown in Scheme II below. Many cycloalkylamino-ketones II-1 were purchasable, for example N-t-butoxycarbonyl-4-piperidone, or prepared according to literature (e.g., see U.S. Pat. No. 5,968,929). The ketones II-1 could be transformed via routine reductive amination methods directly to amines l-1, but a convenient intermediate was oxime II-2, which could be reduced with Raney nickel under hydrogen atmosphere or typical hydride reagents, such as lithium aluminum hydride (e.g., see U.S. Pat. No. 5,968,929). Alternatively, many alcohols II-3 are available from literature or commercial suppliers, and II-3 could be processed as precedented in the literature, for example as the corresponding sulfate esters II-4 (i.e. mesylates or tosylates). The sulfate esters I-4 or equivalent are converted to the azides II-5, which are easily reduced to the desired amines I-1 with standard protocols.

With a free amine available on a cycloalkylamino-diaminothiazole template such as I-7 from Scheme I, numerous nitrogen-capped derivatives are available from the use of various reagents, some of which are outlined in the scheme labeled Scheme III below. For example, isocyanates Ill-1 give ureas III-2. Activated esters, mostly as acyl chlorides III-3, provide amides (III-4, R5=alkyl), urethanes (III-4, R5=alkoxy), or thiocarbamate (III-4, R5=alkylthio) from acid chlorides (III-3, R5=alkyl), chloroformates (III-3, R5=alkoxy), or chlorothioformates (III-3, R5=alkylthio), respectively. Another avenue to amides (III-5, R6=alkyl) was available from coupling of carboxylic acids (III-5R6=alkyl) to amine I-7 with any of a variety of peptide coupling reagents, such as benzotriazol-1-yloxytris(pyrrolidino)-phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (PyBOP) or O-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (HATU). Halosulfonyl reagents III-7 are also good reactants to afford sulfonamides III-8 (R7=alkyl) or sulfamides III-8 (R7=alkylamino) from sulfonyl chlorides/fluorides (III-7, R7=alkyl, X=Cl or F) or sulfamyl chlorides (III-7, R7=alkylamino, X=Cl). Reductive amination of I-7 with aldehydes III-9 provides N-alkyl derivatives III-10 (R8=alkyl). All of the reactions depicted in Scheme III are compatible with parallel, combinatorial methods, and the amines I-7 are very suitable as templates, or core building blocks.

Most of the various reactants for amines I-7 in Scheme III are commercially available, but some sulfonyl chlorides III-7 (R7=aryl or heteroaryl) required special preparations, as outlined in Scheme IV. For example, for more highly functionalized arylsulfonyl chlorides IV-2, some traditional methods were applicable. Arylthiols IV-1 could be oxidized to sulfonyl chlorides IV-2 with chlorine gas bubbled through acetic acid solutions. Or substituted aryls IV-3 underwent electrophilic sulfonation with chlorosulfonic acid to produce sulfonic acids IV-4, which can be purified and are mildly converted with phosphorus pentachloride or thionyl chloride to desired sulfonyl chlorides IV-2. In the particular cases for pyridyl-sulfonyl chlorides IV-2 (W=N; U,V=CH), there are many examples from the literature wherein nitropyridine IV-5 (W=N, U,V=C) serves as starting material. The nitro group of IV-5 is reduced to the corresponding amine, which in turn is converted in situ to a diazonium intermediate and substituted with a sulfur nucleophile, such as sulfur dioxide, to sulfonate IV-4, or directly to sulfonyl chloride IV-2 (for an example of this sequence, see Markley, et al, J. Med. Chem., 29, 427-433 (1986)). For pyrimidine sulfonyl chlorides (IV-2, V,W=N; U=CH), Caldwell, et al., J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 81, 5166-5167 (1959) describes the preparation of 2-chloro-pyrimidine-5-sulfonyl chloride from 2-amino-pyrimidine and fuming sulfuric acid. The pyrazine sulfonyl chloride (IV-2, U,W=N; V=CH) should be available via one of the outlined approaches.

A significant subset of the sulfonamides III-8 (R9=aryl) were made by elaboration subsequent to the process in Scheme III, via substitution of 2-haloaryl V-1, as shown in Scheme V. Particularly for 2-chloroheteroaryls V-1 (X=Cl), substitution by amines, alcohols, or alkylthiols, was effective, especially when in excess or sometimes as the solvent, in the presence of a base, such as potassium carbonate, at elevated temperature, or as promoted by microwave exposure—to result in 2-substituted pyridines, pyrimidines, or pyrazines. 2-Alkoxy-aryls or heteroaryls V-2 (Z=alkoxy), 2-alkylamino-V-2 (Z=alkylamino), or 2-alkylthio-V-2 (Z=alkylthio), respectively, were obtained in this manner. Similarly some fluorophenyls V-1 (U, V, W=C, X=F) were also susceptible to substitution by alcohols or amines to allow access to certain alkoxy-aryls V-2 (Z=alkoxy, U, V, W=C) or alkylamino-aryls V-2 (Z=alkylamino, U, V, W=C), respectively. 2-Alkyl- or 2-aryl-moieties were attached to either phenyls V-1 (U, V, W=C, X=Br or I) or heteroaryls V-1 (one or two of U,V, or W=N with others C, X ═Cl) to furnish coupled products V-2 (Z=alkenyl, aryl, heteroaryl, or alkynyl), via standard Heck, Stille, Suzuki, or Castro-Stevens coupling methodology, in polar solvent in the presence of catalyst, such as tetrakis(triphenylphosphino)palladium(0), or dichloro-bis(triphenylphosphino)-palladium(II), sometimes with heating, with a suitable coupling partner, such as 3-pyridylboronic acid.

Other processing subsequent to Scheme 3, but upon substituents of aryl or heteroaryl sulfonamides, are exemplified in the following Schemes VI, VII, VIII, IX, and X below. The benzaldehyde VI-1 underwent reductive amination to amines VI-3 under routine conditions, either with hydride reducing agents such as sodium cyanoborohydride, or hydrogenation. One aldehyde VI-1 was made via Scheme III from commercially available sulfonyl chloride III-7 (R7=p-C6H4—CHO). Aldehydes are also good starting materials for other functionality, notably heterocycles: as shown also in Scheme VI below, an ethylenediamine VI-4 was employed as a partner, in the presence of sulfur, imidazolines VI-5 were produced.
embedded image


Similarly, other amines are available from aldehydes as shown below in Scheme VII. The aldehyde VII-1 underwent reductive amination similar to the protocol in Scheme VI to produce amines VII-2. The aldehyde VII-1 was available from careful acidic hydrolysis of the acetal VII-3, which in turn was produced upon alkylation of 2-chloropyridine V-1 (X=Cl, W=N, U, V=C) with glycolaldehyde dimethyl acetal. The sequence of Scheme VII was particularly useful to obtain these secondary amines VII-2, especially those not available from the straightforward protocol of Scheme V.
embedded image

As shown in Scheme VIII, the nitrile VIII-1 was also a useful intermediate. Nitriles VIII-1 may be made according to the route in Scheme III from commercially available sulfonyl chloride III-7 (R9=Ar—CN). Under routine conditions, the nitrile VIII-1 was converted to the amidine VIII-2. As well as good solubilizing groups, amidines are also potential starting materials for other heterocycles.
embedded image


Another elaborative process adjacent to the arylsulfonamides is shown in Scheme IX below, to access thioalkyls in particular. The thiol IX-1 was easily available as the thiopyridine IX-1 (W=N) from the conversion of corresponding 2-chloropyridine V-1 (X=Cl, W=N, U, V=C) from Scheme V via substitution with sodium sulfide or an equivalent. Consequently the thiol IX-1 can be alkylated in straightforward manner to the thioalkyls IX-2.
embedded image


Another useful arylsulfonamide is shown below in Scheme X, the 2-vinyl heteroaryl X-1, formed through a Stille coupling of tributyl-vinyltin(IV) with 2-chloro-heteroaryl V-1 (X=Cl, W=N, U, V=C) from Scheme V. Amines, including anilines, can provide useful adducts X-2.
embedded image


Another group of sulfonamides XI-3 and XI-4 result from further processing—subsequent to Scheme II—are shown in Scheme XI below. For example, commercially available 3-chloropropylsulfonyl chloride (III-7, R7=CH2CH2CH2Cl) was used according to Scheme III with piperidine of type I-7 to selectively produce sulfonamide XI-1 where n=3. The terminal chloride of XI-1 (X=Cl) was typically converted in situ to the more reactive iodide XI-2 (X=I), which in turn alkylated secondary amines, or thiols to provide amino-alkylsulfonamides XI-3, or thio-alkyls XI-4, respectively.
embedded image

For sulfonamides like XI-3 and XI-4 with n=2 for the spacer group, as shown in Scheme XII, these were conveniently available via addition of amines or thiols to vinylsulfones XII-1. The production of adducts XII-2 or XII-3 was suitable for parallel, or combinatorial methods.

The starting materials were initially prepared along a typical route from literature, for example, Markley, et al., J. Med. Chem., 29, 427-433 (1986). Details are provided as follows:


A solution of 2-chloro-5-nitro-pyridine (3.17 g, 20.0 mmol) and aqueous dimethylamine (40%, 5 ml) in ethanol was refluxed for 4 hours. Solvent was removed and a solution of the resultant residue in ethyl acetate was washed with sat. NaHCO3, dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated to give 3.2 g of dimethyl-(5-nitro-pyridin-2-yl)-amine as a yellow solid in 98% yield, which was used without further purification.



1H NMR (CD3OD): δ 8.98 (d, 1H, J=2.2 Hz); 8.12 (dd, 1H, J=2.2, 8.4 Hz), 6.4 (d, 1H, J=8.4 Hz), 3.2 (s, 6H).


The above intermediate was dissolved in 1% concentrated HCl/methanol (200 ml) and hydrogenated over 10% Pd/C (0.5 g) at 20 psi for 2 hours. The catalyst was removed by filtration. The filtrate was concentrated to give 3.7 g of N2, N2-dimethyl-pyridine-2,5-diamine dihydrochloride as a yellow solid in 95% yield, which was used without further purification.


To a solution of above intermediate (2.09 g, 10.0 mmol) in acetic acid (12 ml) and concentrated HCl (2.34 ml) at 5° C., NaNO2 (0.68 g 10 mmol) was added in small portions. The resulting diazonium salt solution was added slowly into a solution of acetic acid (7.5 ml), SO2 (8.2 g), CuCl2 (0.37 g), and water (0.5 ml) at 5° C. The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for another 90 minutes until gas evolution ceased. The solution was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was dried under vacuum to give the crude 2-dimethylamino-pyridine-5-sulfonyl chloride hydrochloride as a dark brown solid, which was used immediately in next step without further purification.


The title compound was prepared in a manner similar to that for Example F1 from 1-[4-amino-2-(piperidin-4-ylamino)-thiazol-5-yl]-1-(2,6-difluoro-phenyl)-methanone (Example A6) and 2-dimethylamino-pyridine-5-sulfonyl chloride hydrochloride.

The title compound was prepared as follows. 1-{4-Amino-2-[1-(6-chloro-pyridine-3-sulfonyl)-piperidin-4-ylamino]-thiazol-5-yl}-1-phenyl-methanone (Example F21; 510 mg, 1.00 mmol), 4-(2-hydroxyethyl) morpholine (5.0 ml, 39 mmol), and potassium carbonate (500 mg, 3.62 mmol) were ground together in a mortar, transferred to a flask, and heated at 120° C. for 2 hours. The resultant mixture was allowed to cool, diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water, dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated. Column chromatography with (58% NH4OH)/MeOH/EtOAc (0.5/1/10) as eluant provided a white powder, which was taken up in EtOAc and washed with water, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated. The resultant solid was dissolved in acetonitrile (25 ml), water (60 ml) and 38% HCl (0.5 ml) and lyophilized to give 0.33 g of yellow solid in 46% yield.

Biochemical and Biological Evaluation:


Cyclin-dependent kinase activity was measured by quantifying the enzyme-catalyzed, time-dependent incorporation of radioactive phosphate from [32P]ATP or [33P]ATP into a protein substrate. Unless noted otherwise, assays were performed in 96-well plates in a total volume of 50 μL, in the presence of 10 mM HEPES (N-[2-hydroxyethyl]piperazine-N′-[2-ethanesulfonic acid]) (pH 7.4), 10 mM MgCl2, 25 μM adenosine triphosphate (ATP), 1 mg/mL ovalbumin, 5 μg/mL leupeptin, 1 mM dithiothreitol, 10 mM β-glycerophosphate, 0.1 mM sodium vanadate, 1 mM sodium fluoride, 2.5 mM ethylene glycol-bis(β-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N′N′-tetraacetic acid (EGTA), 2% (v/v) dimethylsulfoxide, and 0.03-0.4 μCi [32/33P]ATP per reaction. Reactions were initiated with enzyme, incubated at 30° C., and terminated after 20 minutes by the addition of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) to 250 mM. The phosphorylated substrate was then captured on a nitrocellulose or phosphocellulose membrane using a 96-well filtration manifold, and unincorporated radioactivity was removed by repeated washing with 0.85% phosphoric acid. Radioactivity was quantified by exposing the dried membranes to a phosphorimager.


Compounds from combinatorial libraries were screened from 96-well plates for % inhibition of CDK activity at 30 nM theoretical compound concentration. Inhibition was measured relative to control wells that contained all reaction components including 2% (v/v) DMSO but no compound, after subtraction of background radioactivity measured in the absence of enzyme. Apparent Ki values of discrete compounds were measured by assaying enzyme activity in the presence of different inhibitor compound concentrations and subtracting the background radioactivity measured in the absence of enzyme. The kinetic parameters (kcat, Km for ATP) were measured for each enzyme under the usual assay conditions by determining the dependence of initial rates on ATP concentration. Inhibition data were fit to an equation for competitive inhibition using Kaleidagraph (Synergy Software), or were fit to an equation for competitive tight-binding inhibition using the software KineTic (BioKin, Ltd.).


Inhibition of CDK4/Cyclin D Retinoblastoma Kinase Activity:


A complex of human CDK4 and genetically truncated (1-264) cyclin D3 was purified using traditional biochemical chromatographic techniques from insect cells that had been co-infected with the corresponding baculovirus expression vectors (see e.g., Meijer and Kim, “Chemical Inhibitors of Cyclin-Dependent Kinases,” Methods in Enzymol,. vol. 283 (1997), pp. 113-128.). The enzyme complex (5 nM) was assayed with 0.3-0.5 μg of purified recombinant retinoblastoma protein fragment (Rb) as a substrate. The engineered Rb fragment (residues 386-928 of the native retinoblastoma protein; 62.3 kDa) contains the majority of the phosphorylation sites found in the native 106-kDa protein, as well as a tag of six histidine residues for ease of purification. Phosphorylated Rb substrate was captured by microfiltration on a nitrocellulose membrane and quantified using a phosphorimager as described above. For measurement of tight-binding inhibitors, the assay duration was extended to 60 minutes, during which the time-dependence of product formation was linear and initial rate conditions were met. Ki values for the compounds of Example A through Example N were measured as described above and shown in Table 1. Percent inhibitions for the compounds of Example O through R were calculated as described above and shown in Table 2.


Inhibition of CDK2/Cyclin A Retinoblastoma Kinase Activity:


CDK2 was purified using published methodology (Rosenblatt et al., “Purification and Crystallization of Human Cyclin-dependent Kinase 2,” J. Mol. Biol., vol. 230, 1993, pp. 1317-1319) from insect cells that had been infected with a baculovirus expression vector. Cyclin A was purified from E. coli cells expressing full-length recombinant cyclin A, and a truncated cyclin A construct was generated by limited proteolysis and purified as described previously (Jeffrey et al., “Mechanism of CDK activation revealed by the structure of a cyclin A-CDK2 complex,” Nature, vol. 376 (27 Jul. 1995), pp. 313-320). A complex of CDK2 and proteolyzed cyclin A was prepared and purified by gel filtration. The substrate for this assay was the same Rb substrate fragment used for the CDK4 assays, and the methodology of the CDK2/delta cyclin A and the CDK4/delta cyclin D3 assays was essentially the same, except that CDK2 was present at 10 nM or 19 nM. The duration of the assay was 60 or 75 minutes, during which the time-dependence of product formation was linear and initial rate conditions were met. Ki values of the compounds of Example A through Example N were measured as described above and shown in Table 1. And, the percent inhibitions of the compounds of Example O through Example R were calculated as described above and shown in Table 2.

The complex of human CDK1 (cdc2) and cyclin B was purchased from New England Biolabs (Beverly Mass.). Alternatively, a CDK1/glutathione-S-transferase-cyclin B1 complex was purified using glutathione affinity chromatography from insect cells that had been co-infected with the corresponding baculovirus expression vectors. The assay was executed as described above at 30° C. using 2.5 units of cdc2/cyclin B, 10 μg Histone Hi protein, and 0.1-0.3 μCi [32/33P]ATP per assay. Phosphorylated histone substrate was captured by microfiltration on a phosphocellulose P81 membrane and quantified using a phosphorimager as described above. Ki values were measured using the described curve-fitting programs. The results are shown in Table 6.


Inhibition of Cell Growth: Assessment of Cytotoxicity:


Inhibition of cell growth was measured using the tetrazolium salt assay, which is based on the ability of viable cells to reduce 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-[2H]-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) to formazan (Mossman, Journal of Immunological Methods, vol. 65 (1983), pp. 55-58). The water-insoluble purple formazan product was then detected spectrophotometrically. The HCT-116 cell line was used as a representative cancer cell line and grown in 96-well plates. Cells were plated in McCoy's 5A Medium at a volume of 135 μl/well. Plates were incubated for four hours before addition of inhibitor compounds. Different concentrations of inhibitor compounds were added in 0.5% (v/v) dimethylsulfoxide (15 μLuwell), and cells were incubated at 37° C. (5% CO2) for three to five days. At the end of the incubation, MTT was added to a final concentration of 0.2 mg/mL, and cells were incubated for 4 hours more at 37° C. After centrifugation of the plates and removal of medium, the absorbance of the formazan (solubilized in dimethylsulfoxide) was measured at 540 nm. The concentration of inhibitor compound causing 50%(IC50) or 90%(IC50) inhibition of growth was determined from the linear portion of a semi-log plot of inhibitor concentration versus percent inhibition. All results were compared to control cells treated only with 0.5% (v/v) dimethylsulfoxide. The IC50 and IC90 of the compounds of Examples A through Example N are shown in Table 1. Percent inhibitions at 0.25 μM of the compounds of Example O were calculated and shown in Table 2. Percent inhibitions at 0.25 μM or 0.1 μM of the compounds of Example P through R were calculated and shown in Table 3 to Table 5.


For the compounds shown in Table 1 through Table 6, the group of —N(H)— and methyl (—CH3) of the formulae are sometimes shown as “—N—” and “—” for simplicity, respectively, and the compounds in the form of salts are shown in their free base forms. In Tables 2 through Table 5, the straight line, for the purpose of these tables, designates the point of connection to the structure appearing at the tope of each Table. The straight line does not designate a methyl group. For example, in Table 2, the moiety indicated for R1 taken together with formula (1) appearing as Example O1 in Table 2 provides the following structure:
