The present invention claims the right of the following priorities:
The present disclosure relates to a series of pyrazole-1(2H)-phthalazinone compounds and a use thereof, specifically to a compound of formula (III) and a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
Protein arginase methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) is a clinically potential epigenetic target. It is a type II arginine methyltransferase that post-translationally modifies histones and other proteins through symmetric dimethylation. Current research indicates that PRMT5 expression levels are elevated in various tumors.
The gene for the metabolic enzyme 5′-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) is located very close to the tumor suppressor gene CDKN2A on human chromosome 9p21. Therefore, in tumors with CDKN2A gene deletion, MTAP deletion is often observed, making it one of the most frequently mutated genes in tumors. MTAP deletion leads to the accumulation of its substrate methylthioadenosine (MTA). MTA can selectively inhibit the activity of PRMT5 methyltransferase, making it more sensitive to further PRMT5 inhibition. PRMT5 inhibitors can be a highly selective treatment for patients with MTAP-deficient or low-expression tumors.
In recent years, PRMT5 has garnered significant attention as a potential target for tumor therapy. Numerous small molecule inhibitors of PRMT5 have been reported, which can be classified into two categories based on whether the compounds occupy the SAM binding site: SAM non-competitive inhibitors and SAM competitive inhibitors. SAM non-competitive inhibitors occupy the substrate binding site and compete with the substrate, whereas SAM competitive inhibitors occupy the SAM binding site.
For SAM non-competitive inhibitors, although they can effectively inhibit the in vitro growth of many cell lines, they lack selectivity for tumor cell lines and their ability to inhibit tumor cells is independent of the status of MTAP in the cells, which may lead to a potential risk of clinical toxicity. In MTAP-deficient cells, MTA accumulates and partially inhibits PRMT5 in the cells, making tumor cells sensitive to PRMT5 inhibitors. Therefore, designing a small molecule that synergistically binds MTA and PRMT5, and specifically binds to the PRMT5 MTA complex, thereby inhibiting tumor cell growth, is an effective means to enhance the selectivity of PRMT5 inhibitors.

When the compound of the present disclosure contains a relatively basic functional group, an acid addition salt can be obtained by contacting such compounds with a sufficient amount of acid in a pure solution or a suitable inert solvent. Certain specific compounds of the present disclosure contain both basic and acidic functional groups, and thus can be converted to any base or acid addition salt.
The pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the present disclosure can be prepared from the parent compound that contains an acidic or basic moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salt can be prepared by reacting the free acid or base form of the compound with a stoichiometric amount of an appropriate base or acid in water or an organic solvent or a mixture thereof.
The compounds of the present disclosure may exist in specific geometric or stereoisomeric forms. The present disclosure contemplates all such compounds, including cis and trans isomers, (−)- and (+)-enantiomers, (R)- and (S)-enantiomers, diastereoisomers, (D)-isomers, (L)-isomers, racemic, and other mixtures thereof, such as enantiomers or diastereomer enriched mixtures, all of which are within the scope of the present disclosure. Additional asymmetric carbon atoms may be present in substituents such as alkyl. All these isomers and their mixtures are included within the scope of the present disclosure.
Unless otherwise specified, the absolute configuration of a stereogenic center is represented by a wedged solid bond () and a wedged dashed bond (

Certain compounds of the present disclosure may exist as atropisomers, which are conformational isomers occurring when rotation around a single bond in the molecule is hindered or significantly slowed due to steric interactions with other parts of the molecule. The compounds disclosed in the present disclosure include all atropisomers, which may be pure individual atropisomers, enriched in one of the atropisomers, or non-specific mixtures thereof. If the rotational potential energy around a single bond is high enough and the interconversion between conformations is slow enough, isomers are allowed to be separated. For example,
are a pair of atropisomers, wherein
or on the phenyl group indicates that the stereo orientation on this side is outward, while
or indicates that the stereo orientation on this side is inward.
The term “optional” or “optionally” means that the subsequent event or condition may occur but not requisite, that the term includes the instance in which the event or condition occurs and the instance in which the event or condition does not occur.
The term “optionally substituted” means an atom can be substituted with a substituent or not, unless otherwise specified, the type and number of the substituent may be arbitrary as long as being chemically achievable.
When any variable (such as R) occurs in the constitution or structure of the compound more than once, the definition of the variable at each occurrence is independent. Thus, for example, if a group is substituted by 0 to 2 R, the group can be optionally substituted by up to two R, wherein the definition of R at each occurrence is independent. Moreover, a combination of the substituent and/or the variant thereof is allowed only when the combination results in a stable compound.
Unless otherwise specified, when a group has one or more linkable sites, any one or more sites of the group can be linked to other groups through chemical bonds. When the linking site of the chemical bond is not positioned, and there is an H atom at the linkable site, then the number of H atoms at the site will decrease correspondingly with the number of the chemical bonds linking thereto so as to meet the corresponding valence. The chemical bond between the site and other groups can be represented by a straight solid bond (), a straight dashed bond (
), or a wavy line (
). For example, the straight solid bond in —OCH3 means that it is linked to other groups through the oxygen atom in the group; the straight dashed bond in
means that it is linked to other groups through the two ends of the nitrogen atom in the group; the wave lines in
means that the phenyl group is linked to other groups through carbon atoms at position 1 and position 2;
means that it can be linked to other groups through any linkable sites on the piperidinyl by one chemical bond, including at least four types of linkage, including
Even though the H atom is drawn on the —N—,
still includes the linkage of
merely when one chemical bond was connected, the H of this site will be reduced by one to the corresponding monovalent piperidinyl.

Conclusion: The compounds of the present disclosure exhibit significant inhibitory activity against MTAP-deficient HCT116 cells, while showing a weak inhibitory effect on wild-type tumor cells, thereby demonstrating good selectivity.
Experimental purpose: To test the inhibitory effect of the compounds of the present disclosure on the PRMT5 MTA complex.
Experimental materials: PRMT5/MEP50, peptide H4 (1-21), LANCE® Ultra Europium-anti-methyl-Histone H4 Arginine 3 (H4R3me) antibody, ULight streptavidin, LANCE detection buffer, SAM (S-adenosylmethionine), porcine skin collagen, and MTA (methylthioadenosine).
(1) Buffer preparation: Taking 10 mL as an example. 10 mM MTA: 10 mg of MTA was dissolved in 3296 μL of DMSO. The mixture was then aliquoted and stored at −80° C. The buffer was prepared on the day of the experiment, according to the schemes shown in Tables 2 and 3.
The compound was dissolved in DMSO to obtain a stock solution with a concentration of 10 mM. A gradient dilution was performed in a compound dilution plate to obtain four compound wells at the following concentrations: 1 mM, 37.037 μM, 1.3717 μM, and 0.0508 μM. These compounds at four concentrations were then transferred to a compound transfer plate with a transfer volume of 8 μL for each concentration. Additionally, DMSO was added to the empty wells of the compound transfer plate for later use. The Echo550 liquid handler was employed to perform serial dilutions and transfer the liquid to the experimental plate. Upon completion of the liquid transfer, the experimental plate was ready for use.
The enzyme solution and substrate mixture were prepared using the buffer, with PRMT5 at a concentration of 7.6 nM, peptide H4 (1-21) at a concentration of 0.32 M, and SAM at a concentration of 2.6 μM.
5 μL of the PRMT5 solution per well was added to the compound wells and negative control wells of the experimental plate using an electronic multichannel pipette. An equal volume of buffer was added to the positive control wells. The experimental plate was centrifuged at 1000 rpm for one minute and then incubated at 25° C. for 30 minutes in a temperature-controlled incubator. Subsequently, the substrate mixture was added to the positive control wells, negative control wells, and compound wells of the experimental plate using the same method. The plate was centrifuged and incubated at 25° C. for 90 minutes.
Principle: The experiment employed PerkinElmer's time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer technology (LANCE® Ultra) for detection. During the reaction, two antibodies were added after PRMT methylated the substrate peptide H4 (1-21). The LANCE® Ultra Europium-anti-methyl-Histone H4 Arginine 3 (H4R3me) antibody acted as an energy donor and specifically bound to the methylation site on the peptide H4 (1-21), while ULight acted as an energy acceptor and specifically bound to the biotin tag on the peptide H4 (1-21). When excited with a laser at a specific wavelength (the excitation wavelength in this experiment was 340 nm), the energy donor emitted light at a wavelength of 615 nm. If the spatial distance between the energy donor and the energy acceptor was close enough (i.e., both antibodies were simultaneously attached to the peptide H4 (1-21)), energy transfer occurred between the energy donor and the energy acceptor, causing the energy acceptor to emit light at a wavelength of 665 nm. The emitted lights at both 615 nm and 665 nm were detected using a plate reader, and the ratio of the 665 nm signal to the 615 nm signal was calculated. By plotting and calculation, the relevant parameters of the sample to be tested could be determined.
An antibody mixture was prepared using LANCE buffer, with a concentration of 4 nM for LANCE® Ultra Europium-anti-methyl-Histone H4 Arginine 3 (H4R3me) antibody and 53.3 nM for ULight. 10 μL of the detection solution per well was added to the positive control wells, negative control wells, and compound wells of the experimental plate using an electronic multichannel pipette. The plate was centrifuged and incubated at room temperature for 1 hour, and an Envision 2104 plate reader was used for reading. The inhibition rate of the compounds was calculated using interpolation. The inhibition rate was plotted using the four-parameter logistic curve and XLfit software to generate the inhibition curve of the compounds and calculate relevant parameters, including minimum inhibition rate, maximum inhibition rate, and IC50.
Conclusion: The compounds of the present disclosure exhibit a significant inhibitory effect on the PRMT5 MTA complex.

After pre-incubation, 5 μL of the test compound or control compound working solution was added to both the T60 incubation plate and the NCF60 incubation plate and mixed well. 50 μL of potassium phosphate buffer per well was added to the NCF60 incubation plate to initiate the reaction. 180 μL of termination solution (acetonitrile solution containing 200 ng/mL tolbutamide and 200 ng/mL labetalol) and 6 μL of NADPH regeneration system working solution were added to a TO termination plate. 54 μL of sample was then removed from the T60 incubation plate and added to the TO termination plate to generate TO samples. 44 μL of NADPH regeneration system working solution per well was added to the T60 incubation plate to initiate the reaction. Only 54 μL of microsomal working solution, 6 μL of NADPH regeneration system working solution, and 180 μL of termination solution were added to the blank plate.
