The present disclosure relates to compounds which inhibit PCSK9 and their use in methods of treatment.
The content of the electronically submitted sequence listing (201191.xml; Size: 2,618 bytes; and Date of Creation: Jan. 22, 2024) submitted in this application is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
PCSK9, also referred to as “proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9”, is a member of the secretory proprotein convertase family and plays an important role in cholesterol metabolism. PCSK9 increases the levels of circulating LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) via the enhanced degradation of the LDLRs independently of its catalytic activity. Secreted PCSK9 binds to the Epidermal Growth Factor domain A (EGFA) of the LDL receptor (LDLR) at the cell surface and the PCSK9/LDLR complex is internalized into endosomal/lysosomal compartments. The enhanced binding affinity of PCSK9 to the LDLR at the acidic pH of late endosomes/lysosomes reduces LDLR recycling and instead targets LDLR for lysosomal degradation. Genetic association studies have demonstrated that loss-of-function mutations in PCSK9 are associated with low plasma LDL-C levels and a reduction in the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events.
For cardiovascular disease, few options exist for inhibiting PCSK9. Statins actually upregulate PCSK9 in HepG2 cells and in human primary hepatocytes through the increased expression of SREBP-2, a transcription factor that upregulates both the LDLR and PCSK9 genes. Since an elevated level of PCSK9 decreases the abundance of LDLR on the cell surface, increasing doses of statins have failed to achieve proportional LDL-C lowering effects.
Two monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that bind selectively to extracellular PCSK9 and prevent its interaction with the LDLR, alirocumab and evolocumab, have recently received FDA approval for lowering LDL-C levels. In clinical trials, alirocumab showed an about 50% decrease in LDL levels compared to placebo (Elbitar 2016). Patients taking evolocumab showed an about 60-75% decrease in LDL levels. The potency of these drugs demonstrates the potential for inhibitors of PCSK9 to be effective treatments for those with hypercholesterolemia and other cardiovascular diseases. However, both antibody drugs require intravenous administration and can cause allergic reactions or other deleterious immune responses in the body.
Cardiovascular diseases often require management over a person's lifetime, unlike an infection that could be episodic. Thus, ease of dosing and administration become important factors for patient compliance with maintenance drug treatments. There is a need for PCSK9 inhibitors with increased efficacy and greater ease of administration, which can be achieved with small molecule PCSK9 inhibitors.
WO 2020/150473 A2 relates to heteroaryl compounds and pharmaceutical preparations thereof. It also relates to methods of treating or preventing cardiovascular diseases, and methods of treating sepsis or septic shock, using the described novel heterocyclic compounds.
WO 2020/150474 A1 relates to an inhibitor pharmacophore of PCSK9 and heteroaryl compounds that bind the PCSK9 protein.

A “therapeutically effective amount”, as used herein refers to an amount that is sufficient to achieve a desired therapeutic effect. For example, a therapeutically effective amount can refer to an amount that is sufficient to improve at least one sign or symptom of the disease to be treated.
The compounds of Formula (I), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, may be administered as pharmaceutical compositions, comprising one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.
Therefore, in one embodiment there is provided a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
The excipient(s) selected for inclusion in a particular composition will depend on factors such as the mode of administration and the form of the composition provided. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable excipients are well known to persons skilled in the art and are described, for example, in the Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients, Sixth edition, Pharmaceutical Press, edited by Rowe, Ray C; Sheskey, Paul J; Quinn, Marian. Pharmaceutically acceptable excipients may function as, for example, adjuvants, diluents, carriers, stabilisers, flavourings, colorants, fillers, binders, disintegrants, lubricants, glidants, thickening agents and coating agents. As persons skilled in the art will appreciate, certain pharmaceutically acceptable excipients may serve more than one function and may serve alternative functions depending on how much of the excipient is present in the composition and what other excipients are present in the composition.
The pharmaceutical compositions may be in a form suitable for oral use (for example as tablets, lozenges, hard or soft capsules, aqueous or oily suspensions, emulsions, dispersible powders or granules, syrups or elixirs), for topical use (for example as creams, ointments, gels, or aqueous or oily solutions or suspensions), for administration by inhalation (for example as a finely divided powder or a liquid aerosol), for administration by insufflation (for example as a finely divided powder) or for parenteral administration (for example as a sterile aqueous or oily solution for intravenous, subcutaneous or intramuscular dosing), or as a suppository for rectal dosing. The compositions may be obtained by conventional procedures well known in the art. Compositions intended for oral use may contain additional components, for example, one or more colouring, sweetening, flavouring and/or preservative agents.
Suitable daily doses of the compounds disclosed herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in therapeutic treatment of humans are about 0.0001-100 mg/kg body weight. Pharmaceutical formulations as described herein may be formulated by methods known to those skilled in the art to provide doses of the active compound in the range of 0.1 mg to 1000 mg. The daily dose will necessarily be varied depending upon the host treated, the particular route of administration, any therapies being co-administered, and the severity of the illness being treated. Accordingly, the practitioner who is treating any particular patient may determine the optimum dosage.
The pharmaceutical compositions described herein comprise compounds of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and are therefore expected to be useful in therapy.
As such, in one embodiment there is provided a pharmaceutical composition for use in therapy, comprising a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

Methods of Use
The compounds described herein may be used in a method of therapy. Also provided is a method of treatment, comprising administering to a subject in need of treatment a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I. The term “therapeutically effective amount” is an amount sufficient to show benefit to a patient. Such benefit may be at least amelioration of at least one symptom. The actual amount administered, and rate and time-course of administration, will depend on the nature and severity of what is being treated. Prescription of treatment, e.g. decisions on dosage, is within the responsibility of general practitioners and other medical doctors.
A compound may be administered alone or in combination with other treatments, either simultaneously or sequentially dependent upon the condition to be treated.
In one embodiment there is provided a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound of Formula (I) for use in therapy. In one embodiment there is provided the use of the compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound of Formula (I) for the manufacture of a medicament. In another embodiment there is provided a method of treatment comprising administering to a subject the compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound of Formula (I).
The compounds described herein are PCSK9 inhibitors. The PCSK9 gene was identified using genetic mapping techniques on DNA from subjects with autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia (Abifadel 2003). The encoded protein is a serine protease that is mostly expressed in the liver, gut, kidney, and nervous system and circulates in plasma. While not wishing to be bound by any particular theory, studies on mutations in the gene indicated that its putative role was in reducing LDLRs at the cell surface independently of its catalytic activity. (Abifadel 2010). Binding of PCSK9 to the LDLR results in their lysosomal degradation. This enhanced LDLR degradation results in increases in the amount of circulating low-density lipoprotein (LDL). PCSK9 is upregulated by statins, SREBP-1a and SREBP-2, LXR agonist, and insulin, but downregulated by dietary cholesterol, glucagon, ethinylestradiol, chenodeoxycholic acid and the bile acid-activated farnesoid X receptor (FXR) (Maxwell 2003; Persson 2009; Langhi 2008). Since an elevated level of PCSK9 decreases the abundance of LDLR on the cell surface, increasing doses of statins fail to achieve proportional LDL-C lowering results. Thus, disclosed herein are methods for treating a wide range of cardiovascular diseases and conditions that benefit from inhibiting PCSK9 thereby lowering LDL-C.
In certain embodiments, the method of inhibiting PCSK9 occurs in a subject in need thereof, thereby treating a disease or disorder mediated by PCSK9. Also, disclosed herein are methods of treating or preventing a disease or a disorder mediated by PCSK9 comprising administering a compound of Formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In certain embodiments, disclosed herein are methods of treating a disease or a disorder mediated by PCSK9 comprising administering a compound of Formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In certain embodiments, disclosed herein are methods of preventing a disease or a disorder mediated by PCSK9 comprising administering a compound of Formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The prevention of cardiovascular events through the inhibition of PCSK9 has been described, e.g., in Robinson 2015.

General Synthesis
The compounds according to general formula (I-B) can be prepared according to the following schemes 1, 2 or 3. The schemes and procedures described below illustrate synthetic routes to the compounds of general formula (I-B) and are not intended to be limiting. It is clear that the order of transformations as exemplified in schemes 1, 2 or 3 can be modified in various ways. The order of transformations exemplified in these schemes is therefore not intended to be limiting.
Routes for the preparation of compounds of general formula (I-B) and corresponding intermediates are described in schemes 1, 2 or 3.
Scheme 1: Routes for the preparation of compounds of general formula (I-B) in which X is a leaving group, PG is a protective group and D, X1, RA2 and RA3 have the meaning as given for general formula (I-B), supra.
Monoarylated diamines of general formula (A3) can be obtained via nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) or palladium catalyzed Buchwald-Hartwig amination between monoprotected diamines (A1) or their corresponding salts and heteroaryls (A2a) with X being a leaving group like halogen or —S(O)Me as depicted in Scheme 1. For SNAr approaches with X being groups like for example fluorine or —S(O)Me, diamines (A1) may be reacted with (A2a) in the presence of inorganic bases like K2CO3 or Na2CO3 or in the presence of organic bases like triethylamine or DIPEA or without any additional base in polar solvents such as for example DMSO, NMP or nBuOH at temperatures between 100-130° C. The reaction times may vary between 1 hour and 24 hours. In certain instances, it can be beneficial to apply microwave heating.
For palladium catalyzed Buchwald-Hartwig aminations all methods that are known in the art may be applied. For example, diamines (A1) may be reacted with (A2a) in the presence of a palladium catalyst like Pd PEPPSI-lpentCl [CAS 1612891-29-8], Pd2(dba)3 or tBuXPhos Pd G3 [1447963-75-8] and a base like Cs2CO3 or NaOtBu in aprotic solvents like 1,4-dioxane, DMF, toluene or DMA at temperatures between room temperature and 130° C., preferably at 65-100° C., for 15-24 h.
Diamines of general formula (A1) and heteroaryls of general formula (A2a) are either commercially available or can be prepared according to procedures available from the public domain. For the synthesis of diamines (A1) see for example WO2004004726 and references therein.
Arylated diamines of general formula (A6) can be obtained from (A3) via copper catalyzed Ullmann couplings with heterocycles (A4) or via palladium catalyzed Suzuki couplings with boronic acid derivatives (A5). For Ullmann couplings all methods that are known in the art may be applied. For example, (A3) may be reacted with (A4) in the presence of a copper catalyst like Cu(I)I, Cu(OTf)2 or Cu(OAc)2 and a base like Cs2CO3 or K2CO3 in polar, aprotic solvents like 1,4-dioxane, DMF or pyridine at temperatures between room temperature and 120° C., preferably at 100° C. for 15-20 h. In some instances a ligand like N1,N2-dimethylcyclohexane-1,2-diamine, TMEDA, N1,N2-dimethylethane-1,2-diamine or N,N-dimethylglycine might be added to the reaction mixture.
For Suzuki couplings towards (A6) all methods that are known in the art may be applied. For example, (A3) may be reacted with boronic acid derivatives (A5) in the presence of a palladium catalyst like 1,1′-bis(di-tert-butylphosphino)ferrocene palladium dichloride [CAS 95408-45-0] or 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene palladium dichloride [CAS 72287-26-4] and a base like Cs2CO3, K2CO3 or K3PO4 in polar solvents such as 1,4-dioxane, THF and water or mixtures thereof at temperatures between room temperature and 120° C. for 2-15 hours.
Heterocycles of general formula (A4) and boronic acid derivatives of general formula (A5) are either commercially available or can be prepared according to procedures available from the public domain.
Primary amines of general formula (A7) can be obtained from monoprotected diamines of general formula (A6) via deprotection methods. Depending on the protective group applied these can be for example acidic, basic, oxidative or hydrogenation methods. Appropriate protective moieties for amino groups and their introduction and cleavage are well-known in the art. For an overview of protective group chemistry see for example Wuts 2014.

Heteroaryls of general formula (A8) are either commercially available or can be prepared according to procedures available from the public domain.
An alternative route to compounds of general formula (I-B) starts with deprotection of diamines of general formula (A3) to give primary amines of general formula (A9) as depicted in Scheme 1. For deprotection the same procedures apply as described for the synthesis of (A7) from (A6).

The procedures that can be applied are in analogy to those described for the synthesis of (A6) from (A1) and (A11a) in Scheme 1.
For the synthesis of intermediates of general formula (A10) primary amines (A13) or their corresponding salts may be reacted with heteroaryls (A2a) with X being a leaving group like halogen or —S(O)Me in a nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) or palladium catalyzed Buchwald-Hartwig amination. The procedures that can be applied are in analogy to those described for the synthesis of (A3) from (A1) and (A2a) in Scheme 1.
Carboxylic acid derivatives of general formula (A21) may be synthesized according to the route depicted in Scheme 3. Nitro compounds of general formula (A15) can be obtained from reacting monoprotected diamines (A1) or their corresponding salts and nitroaryls (A14) with X being a leaving group like chlorine in a nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr). The reaction can be carried out in the presence of inorganic bases like K2CO3 in polar solvents such as for example DMSO at temperatures between room temperature and the boiling point of the solvent for 2-12 h. Nitroaryls of general formula (A14) are either commercially available or can be prepared according to procedures available from the public domain.
Anilines of general formula (A16) may be obtained from nitro compounds of general formula (A15) by reduction. For reduction all methods that are known in the art may be applied. For example, nitro compounds of general formula (A15) can be reacted in the presence of a metal catalyst like palladium on charcoal under an atmosphere of hydrogen gas (1-5 bar) in polar, protic solvents like methanol or ethanol at temperatures between 0° C. and the boiling point of the solvent for 15-24 h.
Scheme 3: Routes for the preparation of compounds of general formula (A21) in which X is a leaving group, PG is a protective group, Alk is methyl or ethyl and X1, RA2 and RA3 have the meaning as given for general formula (I-B), supra.

Primary amines of general formula (A19) may be synthesized from (A18) via removal of the protective group. For deprotection the same procedures apply as described for the synthesis of (A7) from (A6) in Scheme 1.
Carboxylic esters of general formula (A20) can be obtained from primary amines (A19) and heteroaryls (A8) via nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) or palladium catalyzed Buchwald-Hartwig amination applying procedures in analogy to those described for the synthesis of (A3) from (A1) and (A2a) in Scheme 1.
Carboxylic acid derivatives of general formula (A21) may be synthesized from carboxylic esters of general formula (A20) by ester hydrolysis. For saponification all methods that are known in the art may be applied.

This assay measures binding of compounds to PCSK9 by homogenous time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET).
To determine the IC50 of inhibitors of the interaction between the human PCSK9 and Alexa647 labelled small molecule, fluorescent probe displacement was monitored by homogenous TR-FRET technology. Upon binding of a terbium (Tb) cryptate conjugated anti-His mouse antibody (mAb Anti-6His Tb cryptate Gold, Cisbio) to PCSK9-TEV-His6, the displacement of the probe from PCSK9 was assessed by reduction of the proximity and FRET signal between the Tb cryptate that serves as a FRET-donor and the Alexa647 probe that serves as acceptor.
Recombinantly expressed and purified PCSK9-TEV-His6 (1 nM) was mixed with a fluorescent probe (5 nM) and anti His-Tb-cryptate antibody (0.2 nM) in assay buffer (10 mM HEPES/NaOH, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 0.005 (v/v) % Tween 20). 6 μL were subsequently added to an assay-ready plate containing 0.06 μL of controls and test compound 10 dose-response serial dilutions starting at a concentration of 10 mM (with 100 μM top and 3.2 nM lowest final concentration) by using Certus flex dispenser. The plate was sealed, and the reaction was incubated overnight (18-24h) at RT in the dark.
FRET signal quantification was achieved by PHERAstar FSX (BMG) plate reader. The created data file contained the emission of FRET acceptor channel (665 nm, probe), FRET donor channel (620 nm, Tb-cryptate, excitation at 337 nm) and the FRET ratio (665 nm/620 nm signal×10.000) which was used for calculation of a test compound's IC50.
This assay measures binding of compounds to PCSK9 by SPR (“surface plasmon resonance”, a biophysical method).
The SPR binding experiments were performed on a Biacore S200 optical biosensor unit at 30° C. A Series S Sensor Chip SA that is designed to bind biotinylated molecules for interaction analysis in Biacore systems was equilibrated at room temperature prior to use. The running buffer for protein tethering and subsequent ligand binding experiments was 10 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 0.05% (v/v) Tween 20 pH 7.4.
For the surface tethering of PCSK9, biotinylated human PCSK9 (31-692)-Avi-His6 at a concentration of 0.5 mg/mL was used. Prior to the surface tethering, the surface was exposed to a solution of 50 mM NaOH, 500 mM NaCl via 3 consecutive injections of this solution with a contact time of 60 s and a flowrate of 10 μL min−1 to remove non-conjugated streptavidin. The PCSK9 protein was diluted to a concentration of 20 μg/mL using running buffer and injected with a contact time of 180-300 s and a flowrate of 10 μL min−1 over a single flow channel (typically flow channel 2 or flow channel 4) with the aim to achieve protein capture levels of >5000 response units (RU). Remaining biotin binding sites were blocked via 2 consecutive injections of a 10 μM D-biotin solution in running buffer with a contact time of 60 s and a flowrate of 10 μL min−1 over all flow-channels. Flow-channels 1 and 3 typically served as a reference surface throughout the subsequent binding experiments.
The binding experiments were all performed at a flow rate of 30 PL min−1 and by employing the method of single-cycle kinetics. This approach involves the sequential injection of a compound concentration series without regeneration steps. A contact time between 90-150 s was selected, which was followed by a 40 min dissociation phase to allow for a proper estimation of the dissociation rate constant. Test compounds were delivered in DMSO at a concentration of 10 mM and a digital dispenser HP D300 was used to set up the compound concentration series using 6 concentrations. The tested concentrations have been 30, 100, 300, 1000, 3000 and 10000 nM. Prior to injecting any compound, the surfaces were equilibrated by injecting running buffer over them in three separate pulses. The data collection rate was set to 10 Hz.
The raw sensorgrams of the compound injections were first subjected to reference subtraction (subtracting the signal from flow channel 1 and/or 3 from the signal from channels 2 and/or 4 respectively) and then blank subtraction (subtracting the signal from injecting DMSO controls from the reference subtracted data). The resulting double-referenced sensorgrams were then fitted using a 1:1 binding interaction model using the manufactures software package to extract kinetic- and affinity data. Active compounds have been defined by creating a detectable binding signal at the highest compound concentration (10 mM) of 3 RUs. Kinetic- and affinity data on active compounds are only provided for those compounds where the binding signal at the highest compound concentration (10 mM) is 50% of the theoretical maximum binding signal for a 1:1 binding interaction (Rmax, typically between 15-20 RUs) in order to enable a proper fitting of the data.
This assay measures for PCSK9 antagonist activity based on a test compound's capacity to restore LDL-C-uptake in HepG2 cells. The assay is based on exogenous PCSK9 and LDL-C complexed with a pH-sensitive dye. Outside the cells, at neutral pH, the pHrodo Red-LDL is dimly fluorescent but upon LDLR mediated endocytosis it fluoresces brightly. PCSK9 traffics the LDLR to intracellular degradation and reduces uptake of LDL-C. Inhibition of PCSK9 reduces LDLR degradation and the increased LDL-C uptake is quantified by fluorescence microscopy.
Cell medium: MEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 1×NEAA and Sodium Pyruvate Assay medium: OptiMem supplemented with penicillin/streptomycin
Image data was processed using Incucyte 2021, a software to identify cells and red fluorescent intensity. Screener was used to further process data. Data was normalized as % effect of the signal between median values of the on-plate controls of DMSO and 100 nM Evolocumab according to the formula % effect=−100*(x−DMSO)/(Evolocumab−DMSO) where x equals the measured signal. Concentration response data of the normalized values were fitted using a four-parameter logistic fit.
A liver-specific human PCSK9 knock-in mouse model (hPCSK9-KI) was generated by expressing human PCSK9 under the control of a mouse albumin promoter/enhancer in C57BL/6N mice as previously described in Carreras 2019. For all in vivo studies, heterozygous male hPCSK9-KI mice and their wildtype littermates were housed individually, and heterozygous female hPCSK9-KI mice were house in groups of 4-6 mice per cage. All animals had free access to enrichment and were housed in a temperature-controlled room (22° C.) with a 12:12-h light/dark cycle. They were fed a chow diet and water ad libitum.
For in vivo assessment of test compound activity, mice were randomised into experimental groups of for example 8 mice per group. Mice were ˜12 weeks of age at the time of study start. On day −1, blood samples were drawn from the tail vein and baseline levels of plasma LDL-C were assessed using an enzymatic method. Baseline plasma levels of human PCSK9 were assessed by ELISA. Starting on day 0, test compounds were dosed by oral gavage at for example 15 mg/kg BID for up to 21 days. Blood samples were drawn from the tail vein and plasma levels of LDL-C and human PCSK9 were assessed using the afore mentioned methods.
