The present disclosure relates to a class of pyrimidine derivatives having immunomodulating properties that act via TLR7 which are useful in the treatment of viral or allergic diseases and cancers.
The present disclosure relates to pyrimidine derivatives, processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in therapy.
The immune system is comprised of innate and acquired immunity, both of which work cooperatively to protect the host from microbial infections. It has been shown that innate immunity can recognize conserved pathogen-associated molecular patterns through toll-like receptors (TLRs) expressed on the cell surface of immune cells. Recognition of invading pathogens then triggers cytokine production (including interferon alpha (IFNα)) and upregulation of co-stimulatory molecules on phagocytes, leading to modulation of T cell function. Thus, innate immunity is closely linked to acquired immunity and can influence the development and regulation of an acquired response.
TLRs are a family of type I transmembrane receptors characterized by an NH2-terminal extracellular leucine-rich repeat domain (LRR) and a COOH-terminal intracellular tail containing a conserved region called the Toll/IL-1 receptor (TIR) homology domain. The extracellular domain contains a varying number of LRR, which are thought to be involved in ligand binding. Eleven TLRs have been described to date in humans and mice. They differ from each other in ligand specificities, expression patterns, and in the target genes they can induce.
Ligands which act via TLRs (also known as immune response modifiers (IRMS)) have been developed, for example, the imidazoquinoline derivatives described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,689,338 which include the product Imiquimod for treating genital warts, and the adenine derivatives described in WO 98/01448 and WO 99/28321.

Although specific embodiments of the present disclosure are herein illustrated and described in detail, the invention is not limited thereto. The detailed descriptions are provided as exemplary of the present invention and should not be construed as constituting any limitation of the invention. Modifications will be obvious to those skilled in the art, and all modifications that do not depart from the spirit of the invention are intended to be included with the scope of the appended claims.
The following definitions are meant to clarify, but not limit, the terms defined. If a particular term used herein is not specifically defined, such term should not be considered indefinite. Rather, terms are used within their accepted meanings.
The term “alkyl” as used herein refers to a straight or branched saturated hydrocarbon. For example, an alkyl group can have 1 to 8 carbon atoms (i.e., (C1-C8)alkyl) or 1 to 6 carbon atoms (i.e., (C1-C6 alkyl) or 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
The term “alkylene” as used herein refers to a straight or branched saturated hydrocarbon radical having two monovalent radical centers derived by the removal of two hydrogen atoms from the same or two different carbon atoms of a parent alkane. For example, an alkylene group can have 1 to 8 carbon atoms, 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
The term “alkoxy” as used herein refers to an alkyl group attached to the parent molecular moiety through an oxygen atom.
The term “halo” or “halogen” as used herein refers to fluoro, chloro, bromo and iodo.
The term “aryl” as used herein refers to a single all carbon aromatic ring or a multiple condensed all carbon ring system wherein at least one of the rings is aromatic. For example, an aryl group can have 6 to 20 carbon atoms, 6 to 14 carbon atoms, or 6 to 12 carbon atoms. Aryl includes a phenyl radical. Aryl also includes multiple condensed ring systems (e.g., ring systems comprising 2, 3 or 4 rings) having about 9 to 20 carbon atoms in which at least one ring is aromatic and wherein the other rings may be aromatic or not aromatic (i.e., carbocycle). Such multiple condensed ring systems may be optionally substituted with one or more (e.g., 1, 2 or 3) oxo groups on any carbocycle portion of the multiple condensed ring system. The rings of the multiple condensed ring system can be connected to each other via fused, spiro and bridged bonds when allowed by valency requirements. It is to be understood that the point of attachment of a multiple condensed ring system, as defined above, can be at any position of the ring system including an aromatic or a carbocycle portion of the ring.
The term “heteroaryl” as used herein refers to a single aromatic ring that has at least one atom other than carbon in the ring, wherein the atom is selected from the group consisting of oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur; the term also includes multiple condensed ring systems that have at least one such aromatic ring, which multiple condensed ring systems are further described below. Thus, the term includes single aromatic rings of from about 1 to 6 carbon atoms and about 1-4 heteroatoms selected from the group consisting of oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur in the rings. The sulfur and nitrogen atoms may also be present in an oxidized form provided the ring is aromatic. The term also includes multiple condensed ring systems (e.g., ring systems comprising 2, 3 or 4 rings) wherein a heteroaryl group, as defined above, can be condensed with one or more rings selected from heteroaryls (to form for example a naphthyridinyl such as 1,8-naphthyridinyl), heterocycles, (to form for example a 1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydronaphthyridinyl such as 1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydro-1,8-naphthyridinyl), carbocycles (to form for example 5,6,7, 8-tetrahydroquinolyl) and aryls (to form for example indazolyl) to form the multiple condensed ring system. Thus, a heteroaryl (a single aromatic ring or multiple condensed ring system) has about 1-20 carbon atoms and about 1-6 heteroatoms within the heteroaryl ring. Such multiple condensed ring systems may be optionally substituted with one or more (e.g., 1, 2, 3 or 4) oxo groups on the carbocycle or heterocycle portions of the condensed ring. The rings of the multiple condensed ring system can be connected to each other via fused, spiro and bridged bonds when allowed by valency requirements. It is to be understood that the individual rings of the multiple condensed ring system may be connected in any order relative to one another. It is also to be understood that the point of attachment of a multiple condensed ring system (as defined above for a heteroaryl) can be at any position of the multiple condensed ring system including a heteroaryl, heterocycle, aryl or carbocycle portion of the multiple condensed ring system and at any suitable atom of the multiple condensed ring system including a carbon atom and heteroatom (e.g., a nitrogen).
As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable” refers to carrier(s), diluent(s), excipient(s) or salt forms that are compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious to the recipient of the pharmaceutical composition.
As used herein, the term “pharmaceutical composition” refers to a compound of the present disclosure optionally admixed with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, diluents, excipients, or adjuvants. Pharmaceutical compositions preferably exhibit a degree of stability to environmental conditions so as to make them suitable for manufacturing and commercialization purposes.
As used herein, the terms “effective amount,” “therapeutic amount,” or “effective dose” refer to an amount of active ingredient sufficient to elicit the desired pharmacological or therapeutic effects, thus resulting in effective prevention or treatment of a disorder. Prevention of a disorder may be manifested by delaying or preventing the progression of the disorder, as well as delaying or preventing the onset of the symptoms associated with the disorder. Treatment of the disorder may be manifested by a decrease or elimination of symptoms, inhibition or reversal of the progression of the disorder, as well as any other contribution to the well-being of the patient.
The effective dose can vary, depending upon factors such as the condition of the patient, the severity of the symptoms of the disorder, and the manner in which the pharmaceutical composition is administered. Typically, to be administered in an effective dose, compounds are required to be administered in an amount of less than 30 mg/kg of patient weight. Often, the compounds may be administered in an amount from less than about 1 mg/kg patient weight to less than about 100 μg/kg of patient weight, and occasionally between about 10 μg/kg to less than 100 μg/kg of patient weight. The foregoing effective doses typically represent that amount administered as a single dose, or as one or more doses administered over a 24 hours period. For human patients, the effective dose of the compounds may require administering the compound in an amount of at least about 1 mg/24 hr/patient, but not more than about 2400 mg/24 hr/patient, and often not more than about 500 mg/24 hr/patient.

HEK-Blue™ TLR7 cells were purchased from Invivogen (San Diego, Calif.). The following description was taken from the product information sheet.
“HEK-Blue™ hTLR7 cells are designed for studying the stimulation of human TLR7 (hTLR7) by monitoring the activation of NF-kB. HEK-Blue™ hTLR7 cells were obtained by co-transfection of the hTLR7 gene and an optimized secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) reporter gene into HEK293 cells. The SEAP reporter gene is placed under the control of the IFN-b minimal promoter fused to five NF-kB and AP-1-binding sites. Stimulation with a TLR7 ligand activates NF-kB and AP-1 which induce the production of SEAP, which is detected by the HEK-Blue™ Detection cell culture medium.”
A typical assay protocol involved the following steps:
HEK-TLR7 activity table below provides results.
20 (S-enantiomer)
As discussed herein, R1A and R1B in formula (1) can create a chiral center. Compounds 20 and 20C differ by the stereocenter of the carbon bearing R1A and R1B.
As shown above, the (S)-enantiomer (e.g. Compound 20) is >10-fold more potent than the (R)-enantiomer (e.g. Compound 20C) in the HEK-TLR7 assay. Other examples can follow the same trend.
BALB/c mice were dosed p.o. with 10 mg/kg compound formulated in 0.5% carboxy methycellulose+0.5% Tween-80 suspension. Mice were bled retro-orbitally at different time points post dose. Blood was processed into serum by centrifugation followed by protein precipitation, reverse-phase gradient elution and MRM detection via ESI+ mass spectrometry to determine compound concentration. Animals were sacrificed after the final blood collection (5 hour), liver removed and flash frozen in liquid nitrogen for tissue PK analyses. The liver-to-serum concentration (L:S) at 5 hour post dose is one parameter for identifying compounds with potential enrichment in liver.
Mouse liver-to-serum concentration (L:S) table below provides results.
