Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention generally relates to compounds inhibiting the transforming growth factor β (TGF β) type I receptor (ALK5) (hereinafter ALK5 inhibitors), methods of preparing such compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and therapeutic use thereof, the compounds of the invention may be useful for instance in the treatment of many disease, disorder, or condition associated with ALK5 signaling pathway.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The Transforming Growth Factor β (TGF β) is a protein belonging to the TGF R superfamily. It is involved in several processes, both cellular, such as proliferation, migration and differentiation, and biological, including wound healing, immunesuppression, cancerogenesis and extracellular matrix production.


The TGF β superfamily also includes, among others, other members known as activins (Acts) (see e.g. Hinck A P, FEBS Letters 586 (2012); 1860-1870). The binding of the peptide initiates the TGF β signalling cascade through the formation of a heterotetrameric complex composed of two different serine/threonine kinases receptors: type 1 (TGFβR1/ALK5) and type 2 (TGFβR2). TGFβR1/ALK5 is recruited and activated through the phosphorylation of its intracellular domain by TGFβR2, leading in turn to the phosphorylation of the receptor-activated (R)-Smad family, resulting in the activation of target gene transcription (see e.g. Sheppard D., Proc Am Thorac Soc. (2006); (3):413-417). Similarly to the TGF β signaling, the type I receptor for activin, ALK4, leads to the activation of target gene transcription (see e.g. Heldin C H et al., Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol. (2016) Aug. 1; 8 (8)). Several studies have linked an excessive and/or dysregulated TGF β activity with many diseases including cancer and fibrosis (see e.g. Syed V, J Cell Biochem. (2016) Jun.; 117(6):1279-87; Jakowlew S B. Cancer Metastasis Rev. (2006) Sep.; 25(3):435-57). Among fibrotic disorders, a crucial role of TGFβ has been shown in organs such as lung, heart, liver, and kidney (see e.g. Alhamad E H, J Thorac Dis. (2015); 7(3):386-93). In particular, TGFβ expression is increased in fibrotic lung diseases, such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), and in chronic inflammatory conditions, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma (see e.g. Thomas B J et al., Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol. (2016); (55):759-766). In lung, TGFβ is expressed in several cell types, like epithelial cells, endothelial cells, connective tissue cells, macrophages and fibroblasts. These cell populations may produce excess of TGFβ in IPF human lung tissue. Moreover, high levels of TGFβ have been detected in lung tissue and BAL of IPF patients (see e.g. Bergeron A et al., Eur Respir J (2003); 22:69-76). TGFβ gene expression and TGFβ protein production have been observed to increase in a variety of animal models of pulmonary fibrosis caused by bleomycin, silica, asbestos, and radiation (see e.g. Wei F et al., Int Immunopharmacol. (2017) Jul.; 48:67-75; Choe J Y et al., Inflamm Res. (2010) Mar.; 59(3):177-88; Wang X et al., Respir Res (2009); 10, 36) and it has also been reported how the TGFβ expression is sufficient to induce progressive fibrosis in rodents (see e.g. Sime P J et al., J Clin Invest (1997); 100:768-776; Kim K K et al.). Contrarily, TGFβ signalling inhibition obtained by employing knockout (KO) animals can inhibit fibrosis development through TGFβ-linked mechanisms (see e.g. Bonniaud P et al., Am J Respir Crit Care Med (2005); 171:889-898; 34). Similar results have been achieved with inhibition of TGFβR1 in mouse bleomycin disease model (see e.g. Wei Y et al., J Clin Invest. (2017); 127(10):3675-3688). Activin signalling dysregulation, similarly to TGFβ, is associated to fibroblasts proliferation, myofibroblasts differentiation and accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) (see e.g. Yamashita et al., J. Am. Soc. Nephrol. (2004) 15, 91-101). Moreover, overexpression of activin has been linked to pathological conditions and fibrosis development in different organs, such as liver (see e.g. Patella et al., Am. J. Physiol. Gastrointest. Liver Physiol. (2006) 290, G137-G144), kidney (see e.g. Agapova et al., Kidney Int. (2016) 89, 1231-1243), heart (see e.g. Yndestad et al., Circulation (2004) 109, 1379-1385), and lung (see e.g. de Kretser et al., Crit. Care (2013) 17:R263). Taken together these data suggest the importance of targeting ALK5 to treat pharmacologically the aforementioned diseases, linked to the dysregulated TGF signaling pathway. The TGFβ signaling is strongly involved in the cardiovascular homeostasis (see e.g. van Meeteren L A et al., Springer (2013)). Several studies in humans and mice have shown the main role of TGFβ in angiogenesis and vascular morphogenesis. Moreover, TGFβ plays a key role in the development and functionality of cardiac valves. It is therefore clear the importance of a selective regulation of TGFβ pathway to target the pathological effects avoiding the suppression of the signaling needed for a correct homeostasis.


The answer to this crucial point could be addressed by using the inhalation route to deliver an antiTGFβ drug. The inhalatory route would allow the treatment of the affected lung compartment bypassing the issue of the heart exposure.


Various compounds have been described in the literature as ALK5 and/or ALK4 receptor inhibitors.


WO2008/006583, WO2009/087212, WO2009/087224, WO2009/087225, WO2009/133070, WO2009/013335 and WO2009/050183 (Novartis) disclose respectively pyrimidine, pyridine, imidazo pyridine, pyrrolo pyrimidine and pyrrolo pyridine, imidazo pyridazine, imidazo pyridine derivatives useful for the treatment of ALK4- or ALK5-mediated diseases such as inflammatory or obstructive airways diseases, pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary fibrosis.


WO00/61576 and US2003/0149277 (Smithkline Beecham Corp) disclose triarylimidazole derivatives as ALK5 inhibitors useful for the treatment of, among others, renal disease, wound healing, kidney disease, congestive heart failure, ulcers, impaired neurological function and any disease wherein fibrosis is a major component.


WO01/62756 (Smithkline Beecham P.L.C.) discloses pyridinylimidazole derivatives as ALK5 inhibitors useful for the treatment of, among others, renal disease, wound healing, kidney disease, congestive heart failure, ulcers, impaired neurological function and any disease wherein fibrosis is a major component.


WO03/087304 (Biogen Inc.) discloses tri-substituted heteroaryls as ALK5 and/or ALK4 inhibitors useful for the treatment of, among others, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, diabetic nephropathy, hepatic fibrosis, pulmonary fibrosis, acute lung injury, post-infarction cardiac fibrosis, fibrotic cancers and fibroma.


Pyridazinyl amino derivatives have been disclosed in the literature, but not as ALK5 inhibitors.


WO2005/033105 (Amgen) discloses, among other compounds, pyridazinyl amino derivatives as vanilloid receptor ligands, for the treatment of a large number of diseases and disordes, not including fibrosis.


WO2002/022605 and WO2002/022602 (Vertex) describe, among others, pyridazine compounds as protein kinase inhibitors useful for the treatment of cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia.


WO02/24681 (Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical Inc.) describes pyridazine compounds as tyrosine kinase inhibitors useful as anti-tumor agents, and to treat diabetic retinopathy, rheumatoid arthritis, endometriosis and psoriasis.


Of note, inhibition of ALK5 receptor may be useful for the treatment of fibrosis and disease, disorder and conditions that result from fibrosis.


Several efforts have been done in the past years to develop novel ALK5 receptor inhibitors useful for the treatment of several diseases and some of those compounds have shown efficacy also in humans.


However, there remains a potential for developing inhibitors of receptors ALK5 characterized by good potency, useful for the treatment of diseases or conditions associated with a dysregulation of ALK5 signaling pathway, in particular fibrosis.


In particular, there remains a potential for developing inhibitors of receptors ALK5 useful for the treatment of diseases or conditions associated with a dysregulation of ALK5 signaling in the respiratory field, in particular idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), to be administered by the inhalation route and characterized by a good inhalatory profile, that corresponds to a good activity on the lung, a good lung retention and to a low metabolic stability in order to minimize the systemic exposure and correlated safety issues.


In this direction, we have surprisingly found a new series of compounds of general formula (I) that solves the problem of providing potent inhibitors of ALK5 receptor for administration by inhalation, that shows, at the same time, a good inhalatory profile, low metabolic stability, low systemic exposure, improved safety and tolerability, and a good selectivity across the kinome.

Throughout the specification the use of an asterisk “*” in the definition of a structural formula, indicates the point of attachment for the radical group to the rest of the molecule.


A dash (“-”) that is not between two letters or symbols is meant to represent the point of attachment for a substituent.


The carbonyl group is herein preferably represented as —C(O)— as an alternative to the other common representations such as —CO—, —(CO)— or —C(═O)—


In general, the bracketed group is a lateral group, not included into the chain, and brackets are used, when deemed useful, to help disambiguating linear chemical formulas; e.g. the sulfonyl group —SO2— might be also represented as —S(O)2— to disambiguate e.g. with respect to the sulfinic group —S(O)O—.


The present invention relates to novel compounds differing from the structures disclosed in the art at least for a common new core scaffold. In fact the invention relates to compounds that are [pyridazin-4-yl]amino derivatives, which are inhibitors of receptor ALK5 that have therapeutically desirable characteristics, particularly promising for some fibrosis, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).


The compounds of the invention are active as inhibitors of ALK5 receptor, they are potent and show improved properties such as a good inhalatory profile, a low metabolic stability, a low systemic exposure, improved safety and tolerability, and a good selectivity across the kinome. In this respect, the state of the art does not describe or suggest pyridazinyl amino derivatives of general formula (I) of the present invention having an inhibitory activity on receptor ALK5 which represents a solution to the aforementioned need.


Amgen discloses, among other compounds, pyridazinyl amino derivatives. The compounds of formula (I) of the present invention differ from the Amgen ones at least for the substituents on rings A1, A2 and A3. Amgen discloses compounds as vanilloid receptor ligands for the treatment of a large number of diseases and disordes. Amgen neither discloses compounds as ALK5 inhibitors, nor compounds for the treatment of fibrosis.


Vertex describes, among others, pyridazine derivatives. The compounds of formula (I) of the present invention differ from the Vertex ones at least for the presence of a pyridyl or pyridyl condensed group linked to the amino linker bearing the pyridazine ring, instead of a triazole group. Vertex compounds are described as protein kinase inhibitors useful for the treatment of cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia. Vertex neither describes compounds as ALK5 inhibitors, nor for the treatment of fibrosis.


Ortho-McNeil describes pyridazine compounds. The compounds of formula (I) of the present invention differ from the Ortho-McNeil ones at least for the position of the two nitrogen atoms in the pyridazine ring. Ortho-McNeil compounds are described as tyrosine kinase inhibitors useful as anti-tumor agents, and to treat diabetic retinopathy, rheumatoid arthritis, endometriosis and psoriasis. Ortho-McNeil neither discloses compounds as ALK5 inhibitors, nor compounds for the treatment of fibrosis.


In more details, the present invention refers to a series of compounds represented by the general formula (I) as herein below described in details, which are endowed with an inhhibitory activity on receptor ALK5 receptor. Advantageously, the inhibitory action on receptor ALK5 can be effective in the treatment of those diseases where these receptors play a relevant role in the pathogenesis such as fibrosis and disease, disorder and condition from fibrosis.


Differently from similar compounds of the prior art, the compounds of formula (I) of the present invention are able to act as antagonists of ALK5 receptor, particularly appreciated by the skilled person when looking at a suitable and efficacious compounds useful for the treatment of fibrosis, in particular idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. As indicated in the experimental part, in particular in Table 4, the compounds of formula (I) of the present invention show a notable potency with respect to their inhibitory activity on receptor ALK5, below about 10 nM, confirming that they are able to inhibit the ALK5 receptor involved in fibrosis and diseases that result from fibrosis. As indicated in the experimental part, comparative examples, in particular in Table 5, it is shown that, conversely to the compounds C1 characterized by lacking a pyrimidinyl, a pyridinyl or a pyridinyl condensed group linked to the amino group bearing the pyridazine ring, the presence of a pyrimidinyl, a pyridinyl or a pyridinyl condensed group linked to the amino group bearing the pyridazine ring in the present invention compounds unexpectedly and remarkably determines a relevant increase in the inhibitory activity on the ALK5 receptor. Advantageously, the compounds of the present invention are endowed with a very high potency, they could be administered in human at a lower dosage respect to the compounds of the prior art, thus reducing the adverse events that typically occur administering higher dosages of a drug. In addition to being notably potent with respect to their inhibitory activity on receptor ALK5, the compounds of the present invention are also characterized by a good inhalatory profile, that permits to act effectively on the lung compartment and have, at the same time, a low metabolic stability, that allows to minimize the drawbacks associated with the systemic exposure, such as safety and tolerability issues.


Therefore, the compounds of the present invention are particularly appreciated by the skilled person when looking at a suitable and efficacious compounds useful for the treatment of fibrosis, in particular idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, administered by the inhalation route and characterized by a good inhalatory profile, that corresponds to a good activity on the lung, a good lung retention and to a low metabolic stability, that minimizes the systemic exposure and correlated safety issues.


Thus, in one aspect the present invention relates to a compound of general formula (I)

Introduction of R8 to afford compound of formula (VII) may be achieved using, for example, metal-catalyzed cross coupling reaction such as Buchwald-Hartwig amination with the suitable amine, or by SNAr with the proper nucleophile. Representative Buchwald-Hartwig amination conditions involve the use of an appropriate base, such as Cs2CO3, palladium catalyst, as Pd2(dba)3, and a suitable ligand such as tBuXPhos. Such reactions are usually carried on in appropriate solvents, as toluene, and at appropriate temperatures, such as, for example, 90° C.

In some cases, compounds of formula (VII) can first undergo deprotection under acidic conditions as described above, to yield compounds (III). In these cases, compounds (III) can then be reacted with suitable halides under Buchwald-Hartwig amination conditions to give compounds (IX).

N-(4-bromopyridin-2-yl)-2-{6-methyl-3,6-diazabicyclo[3.2.2]nonan-3-yl}acetamide (Intermediate 169, 94 mg, 0.27 mmol) was added to a stirred mixture of 3-({2-[(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxy]ethyl}sulfanyl)-6-(5-chloro-2-fluorophenyl)pyridazin-4-amine (Intermediate 67, 100 mg, 0.24 mmol), Pd(OAc)2 (3.6 mg, 0.02 mmol), Xantphos (17 mg, 0.03 mmol) and Cs2CO3 (158 mg, 0.48 mmol) in dry 1,2-dimethoxyethane (4 mL) at RT. The mixture was degassed with N2. The vial was closed, and the reaction was heated at 100° C. for 6 hrs. The conversion was only partial, but the reaction was stopped. The mixture was evaporated and then partitioned between DCM and brine. The organic phase was separated, dried over Na2SO4, and filtered. The solvent was evaporated to give an orange oil which was purified by reverse flash chromatography on Biotage C18 cartridge (from H2O+0.1% HCOOH to 50% MeCN+0.1% HCOOH). Opportune fractions were collected and evaporated. During evaporation deprotection occurred, the material recovered was further purified by HPLC purification in acid conditions, fractions were concentrated at low volume and eluted through a PL-HCO3 cartridge using MeOH to afford, after evaporation, title compound (13 mg, 0.02 mmol, 10% yield).

Pharmacological Activity of the Compounds of the Invention
In Vitro Assay

The enzymatic activity of compounds of the present invention was monitored measuring the formation of ADP using the ADP-GLO Kinases assay. Following the incubation of the purified enzyme, a substrate and ATP, the produced ADP was converted into ATP, which in turn was converted into light by Ultra-Glo Luciferase. The luminescent signal positively correlated with ADP amount and kinase activity. Briefly, the kinase reaction was performed by incubating 2.6 nM of the purified, commercially available human ALK5 (recombinant TGF β1 N-term GST-tagged, 80-end), a final concentration of TGFβ1 peptide 94.5 μM (Promega, T36-58) and ultra-pure ATP (Promega V915B). The ATP concentration was set at the Km value (concentration of substrate which permits the enzyme to achieve half maximal velocity (Vmax)) of ALK5 (0.5 μM). Compound and ALK5 kinase were mixed and incubated for 15 mins. Reactions were initiated by addition of ATP at a final concentration in the assay of 0.83 μM. After an incubation of 120 min, the reaction was stopped, and ADP production detected with ADP-Glo kit according to manufacturer's indications. To overcome the assay wall limit for very potent compounds the assay protocol was changed by using a high ATP concentration (30-fold Km). Compounds and ALK5 kinase were mixed for 15 min and the reaction initiated by addition of TGFβ1 peptide and ATP at a final concentration in the assay of 15 μM. After an incubation of 60 min, the kinase reaction was stopped, and ADP production detected with ADP-Glo kit according to manufacturer's indications. All reaction and incubation steps were performed at 25° C. and the assays were performed in 384-well format and validated using a selection of reference compounds tested in 11-point concentration-response curve. The results for individual compounds are provided below in Table 4 wherein the compounds are classified in term of potency with respect to their inhibitory activity on ALK5 receptor. Results were expressed as pIC50 (negative logarithm of IC50) and subsequently converted to pKi (negative logarithm of dissociate function Ki) using the Cheng-Prusoff equation. The higher the value of pKi, the greater the inhibition of ALK5 activity. As it can be appreciated, all the compounds of Table 4 show pKi values greater than 8.5 when tested in the biochemical ALK5 assay.
