This patent application claims priority from Italian patent application no. 102020000019210 filed on Aug. 4, 2020, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention relates to quinoline derivatives and uses thereof that can simultaneously modulate bile acid receptors, FXR and GPBAR1, and cysteinyl leukotriene receptors (CysLTR) and their use in the treatment and/or prevention of diseases mediated by the latter.
The strategy of identifying small molecules capable of acting simultaneously on multiple targets is widely recognised as useful in identifying new pharmacological approaches to multifactorial diseases such as chronic inflammatory disorders, including non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, a highly prevalent inflammatory liver disease, metabolic syndrome, and cancer.
This study starts from our recent observation that REV5901, a cysteinyl-leukotriene receptor antagonist is able to modulate GPBAR1 with interesting anti-inflammatory activity in an animal model of intestinal inflammation, and that Zafirlukast, a well-known receptor antagonist for CysLTs has weak activity against FXR (S. Schierle, et al. Anti-Inflammatory Potency of Zafirlukast by Designed Polypharmacology, J Med Chem 61(13) (2018) 5758-5764).
Leukotrienes are a large family of lipid mediators that are generated from arachidonic acid through an enzymatic cascade and function as mediators of inflammation. Among the leukotrienes, the cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs), which comprise LTC4, LTD4 and LTE4, act on cells by binding to a family of G-protein-associated transmembrane proteins (CysLTR), expressed on many pro-inflammatory cells such as neutrophils and eosinophils, mast cells and monocytes/macrophages. The activation of these receptors by endogenous lipid mediators plays a significant role in the inflammatory response resulting in microvascular permeability, leukocyte trafficking, secretion of chemokines and cytokines and tissue repair (fibrosis). It is well known that cysteinyl leukotriene receptors mediate bronchoconstriction, pulmonary mucus secretion and oedema, and consequently their antagonists are validated drugs in the treatment of asthma and more generally in the pharmacological approach to pulmonary disorders. Cysteinyl leukotrienes are implicated in many other diseases such as cardiovascular disorders, cancer, atopic dermatitis, rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease, in the pathogenesis of fulminant hepatitis as well as in liver cholestasis, fibrosis and cirrhosis (Capra V.et al. Cysteinyl-leukotrienes and their receptors in asthma and other inflammatory diseases: critical update and emerging trends. (Med Res Rev. 2007 Jul; 27(4):469-527).
Highly expressed in enterohepatic tissues (liver and intestine), FXR regulates bile acid homeostasis and some metabolic pathways, including lipid and glucose metabolism. FXR agonists have proved useful in the pharmacological approach to metabolic disorders such as cholestasis, type 2 diabetes, liver fibrosis and non-alcoholic fatty liver syndrome (NAFLD). Furthermore, FXR plays an important role in the kidney, the cardiovascular system and in tumour genesis (Renga et al. PHASEB J. 2012, 26, 3021-3031).
GPBAR1 is highly expressed in the liver and intestine, but also in muscles, adipose tissue, macrophages and endothelial cells. In the muscle and in the brown adipose tissue, GPBAR1 increases the energy expenditure and the oxygen consumption (Watanabe et al. Nature of 2006, 439, 484). In entero-endocrine L-cells, the GPBAR1 activation stimulates the secretion of glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1), thereby regulating blood glucose levels, gastrointestinal motility and appetite (Thomas et al. Cell. Metab. 2009, 10, 167).
GPBAR1 appears to be relevant in the regulation of the inflammatory process and of the immune function. Many cells of the innate immunity express this receptor, such as monocytes, macrophages, the NKT cells and the dendritic cells, and mutations in this receptor are associated with an increased risk of developing primary sclerosing cholangitis and ulcerative colitis.
The object of the present invention is to identify novel compounds that can selectively or simultaneously modulate bile acid receptors, FXR and GPBAR1, and cysteinyl leukotriene receptors (CysLTR).
Such an object is achieved by the present invention, with respect to the compounds of Formula (I) according to claim 1, to their use according to claims 8 and 9 and to a composition thereof according to claim 10. The preferred embodiments are indicated in the dependent claims.
The present invention will now be described in detail by reference to the figures in the accompanying drawings, in which:
The following paragraphs provide the chemical characteristics of the compounds according to the invention and are intended to be applied uniformly to the entire description and all claims unless a definition providing a broader definition is expressly stated otherwise.
The term “alkyl”, as used herein, refers to saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons. This term includes linear (unbranched) or branched chains.
Non-limiting examples of alkyl groups according to the invention are, for example, methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, n-pentyl, isopentyl, n-hexyl and the like.
The term “hydroxyalkyl”, as used herein, refers to saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons in which one or more hydrogen atoms are substituted with a hydroxyl group.
Unless otherwise indicated, the term “substituted”, as used herein, means that one or more hydrogen atoms of the above groups are replaced with another non-hydrogen atom, or functional group, provided that the normal valences are maintained and that the substitution results in a stable compound.
Those skilled in the art of organic chemistry will appreciate that many organic compounds can form complexes with solvents in which they are reacted or precipitated or crystallised from. These complexes are known as “solvates”. For example, a complex with water is known as a “hydrate”. The solvates of the compounds of the invention fall within the scope of the invention. The compounds of formula (I) or (Ia) can be easily isolated in association with solvent molecules by crystallisation or evaporation of an appropriate solvent to provide the corresponding solvates.
The compounds of formula (I) or (Ia) can be in crystalline form. In some embodiments, the crystalline forms of the compounds of formula (I) or (Ia) are polymorphic.
The present invention also includes isotopically labelled compounds, which are identical to those given in formula (I) or (Ia), but differ in that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into the compounds of the invention include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen such as 2H, 3H, 11C, 13C, 14C,15N, 17O.
The compounds of the present invention that contain the above-mentioned isotopes and/or other isotopes of other atoms fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. The isotopically labelled compounds of the present invention, for example those in which radioactive isotopes such as 3H e 14C are incorporated, are useful in assays of tissue distribution of drug and/or substrate. Tritiated isotopes, i.e. 3H and carbon-14, i.e. 14C, are particularly preferred due to their ease of preparation and detectability. The isotopes 11C are particularly useful in PET (positron emission tomography). In addition, the substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium, i.e. 2H, may provide certain therapeutic advantages resulting from the increased metabolic stability, e.g. increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosing requirements, and may therefore be referred to in certain circumstances. The isotopically labelled compounds of formula (I) or (Ia) of the present invention can generally be prepared by performing the processes described in the following diagrams and/or examples, substituting a non-isotopically labelled reagent for a readily available isotopically labelled reagent.
Some groups/substituents included in the present invention may be present as isomers. Consequently, in some embodiments, the compounds of formula (I) or (Ia) may have axial asymmetries and, correspondingly, may exist in the form of optical isomers such as a form (R), a form (S) and the like. The present invention includes within the scope of protection all such isomers, including racemates, enantiomers and mixtures thereof.
In particular, the scope of protection of the present invention includes all stereoisomeric forms, including enantiomers, diastereoisomers and mixtures thereof, including racemates, and the general reference to the compounds of formula (I) or (Ia) includes all stereoisomeric forms, unless otherwise indicated.
In general, the compounds of the invention should be considered to exclude those compounds (if any) which are chemically very unstable, either by themselves or in water, to be clearly unsuitable for pharmaceutical use by all routes of administration, regardless of the whether it is oral, parenteral or otherwise. Such compounds are known to the skilled chemist.
Finally, the compounds of formula (I) or (Ia) can form salts. In particular, the quinoline ring is capable of forming hydrochloride salts, while the phenolic residues or COOH groups form metal salts.

Further characteristics of the present invention will become apparent from the following description of some merely illustrative and non-limiting examples.
The following abbreviations are used in the attached examples: methanol (MeOH), sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), ethyl acetate (EtOAc), dichloromethane(DCM), sodium sulfate (Na2SO4), dimethylformamide (DMF), diisobutylaluminium hydride (DIBAL-H), triphenylphosphine (PPh3), diisopropylazodicarboxylate (DIAD), hydrochloric acid (HCl), triethylamine (TEA), trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), sodium hydroxide (NaOH), tetrahydrofuran (THF), water (H2O), chloroform deuterate (CDCl3), methanol deuterate (CD3OD), time (h), room temperature (rt), retention time (tR).
The alcohol 1 was synthesised from Methyl quinoline-2-carboxylate by reduction with diisobutylaluminium hydride (DIBAL-H). The alcohol 1 thus obtained is a substrate of the Mitsunobu reaction with methyl 3-hydroxybenzoate (diagram 1) to synthesise CHIN104 in high yields.
The basic hydrolysis or the reduction with DIBAL-H of the methyl ester provided, starting from CHIN104, the carboxylic acids CHIN105 and the alcohol CHIN106, respectively.
Diagram 1
Reagents and conditions a) DIBAL-H, dry THF, 0° C.; b) PPh3, DIAD, dry THF, 0° C.; c) NaOH, MeOH: H2O 1:1 v/v.
Reaction a). Reduction with DIBAL-H. A solution of DIBAL-H (2.0 equiv., 1.0 M in THF) is added drop by drop to a solution of quinoline methylester or alternatively of CHIN104 in anhydrous THF (25 mL) at 0° C. The resulting mixture is stirred for 4 h-8 h at 0° C. A saturated aqueous solution of Rochelle salt (sodium potassium tartrate) is added to the reaction mixture and subsequently diluted with DCM. Quenching lasts 2 hours under stirring. The aqueous phase is extracted with DCM (3 x 50 mL) and the pooled organic phases are washed with water, anhydrified with Na2SO4 and concentrated under vacuum on the rotavapor to obtain a crude residue which is purified by chromatographic column or HPLC.
Step b) Mitsunobu reaction. Diisopropylazodicarboxylate (DIAD, 3.5 equiv.) is added drop by drop to a solution of triphenylphosphine (PPh3, 3.5 equiv.) in dry THF at 0° C. After 10 minutes, a solution of alcohol 1 dissolved in dry THF is added. After a further 10 minutes, a solution of methyl 3-hydroxybenzoate solubilised in dry THF is added. After about 12 hours, water is added and the reaction mixture is dried to remove the THF. The dry residue is extracted with EtOAc (3 x 50 mL), and the pooled organic phases are washed with an aqueous solution of 2.5 M KOH and water, anhydrified and dried under vacuum on the rotavapor. The purification on a chromatographic column and silica gel provided CHIN104.
Step c) Basic hydrolysis. A small aliquot of the CHIN104 ester is dissolved in a solution of MeOH: H2O 1:1 v/v (30 mL) and treated in basic environment for NaOH (5.0 equiv.). The reaction mixture is stirred for 8 h under reflux at a temperature of about 150° C. The resulting solution is quenched by treatment with 6 M HCl and then extracted with EtOAc (3 x 50 mL). The pooled organic phases are washed with water, treated with anhydrous Na2SO4 and then dried on the rotavapor to give CHIN105 as a crude residue, which is subject to further purification.
The purification was obtained by means of silica gel using hexane as the eluent mixture: EtOAc 9:1 v/v and 0.1% of TEA provided CHIN104 (78%).

For the synthesis of the compounds CHIN107-CHIN109, the first step involves the monoprotection with TBS of methyl 3,5-dihydroxybenzoate, which must bind to quinoline. Once the monoprotected derivative is obtained, it will be bound to quinoline through a Williamson reaction between the phenol and the mesylated alcohol derivative 1. The final step is the deprotection of TBS with tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) in order to obtain CHIN107. On two aliquots of the ester, the basic hydrolysis and the reduction with DIBAL-H are carried out to obtain CHIN108 and CHIN109.
Diagram 2.
Reagents and conditions: a) TBS-Cl, imidazole, dry DMF, 45% yield; b) Mesylchloride, TEA, ether, -20° C., quantitative yield c) phenol (compound 3), K2CO3, anhydrous DMF, 100° C.; d) tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) 1.0 M in dry THF, over-night; e) NaOH tablets in excess, MeOH:H2O 1:1 v/v, over-night, to be refluxed; f) DIBAL-H, dry THF, 0° C.
Reaction a). Protection with TBSCl. Imidazole (1.5 equiv.) and tert-butyl dimethylsilyl chloride (1.2 equiv.) are added to a solution of the compound 2 in dry DMF. After one hour the DMF is removed, extracted with EtOAc/NH4Cl three times and the pooled organic phases are washed with H2O. The organic phase is anhydrified (Na2SO4), filtered, concentrated in the rotavapor, obtaining the compound 3 in the crude state. The purification on silica gel using a hexane/EtOAc 9:1 mixture as eluent provided the compound 3 with 45% yield.
Reaction b). Mesylation of alcohol 1. The compound 1 is solubilised in dry ether and triethylamine (6 equiv.) and methanesulphonyl chloride (5 equiv.) are added to the solution at -20° C. After about 1 h, the solution is washed with a saturated aqueous solution of NaHCO3 and the pooled organic phases are extracted for once with water. The organic phase is anhydrified (Na2SO4), filtered, concentrated in the rotavapor, obtaining the compound 4 in the crude state with a quantitative yield.
Reaction c). Williamson’s reaction. Potassium carbonate (2.5 equiv.) is added to the phenol solution (compound 3) in DMF and left for 15 minutes. The mesylate derivative (1.2 equiv., compound 4) dissolved in dry DMF is added and the solution is placed at 100° C. for about 12 h. The DMF is cooled and removed on the rotavapor and the solid residue is extracted with water and ethyl acetate (3 × 50 mL). The pooled organic phases are anhydrified with Na2SO4, filtered, and then concentrated on the rotavapor, obtaining a crude reaction product, which will be directly submitted to the next reaction.
Reaction d) Deprotection from TBS. The crude product from the previous reaction is dissolved in dry THF at room temperature and 1.0 M TBAF tetra-N-butylammonium fluoride solution in THF (0.63 mL, 5 equiv.) is added to the solution. The reaction is finished after 8 hours, and is treated by adding AcOEt and extracting with H2O. The combined organic phases are anhydrified with Na2SO4, filtered, concentrated on the rotavapor, obtaining the compound CHIN107 in its crude state.
Reaction e) Alkaline hydrolysis. The same synthesis and work-up process is carried out as in example 1 step c).
Reaction f) Ester reduction with DIBAL-H. The same synthesis and work-up process as in example 1 step a) is carried out.

The activity data of the compounds of the invention on FXR, TGR5/GPBAR1 and CysLT1R receptors are described in Table 1. In this table, the activities of the compounds are compared with specific reference compounds, namely CDCA for FXR, TLCA for TGR5/GPBAR1, MK571 for CysLT1R. Each compound is tested at a concentration of 10 microM and the activity of the reference compounds is considered to be 100%.
For FXR-mediated transactivation, the HepG2 cells were transfected with 200 ng of the p(hsp27)-TK-LUC reporter vector containing the FXR response element (IR1) cloned from the heat shock protein 27 (hsp27) promoter, 100 ng of pSG5-FXR, 100 ng of pSG5-RXR and 100 of pGL4.70 (Promega, Madison WI), a vector encoding for the human Renilla gene.
For GPBAR1-mediated transactivation, the HEK-293T cells were transfected with 200 ng of pGL4.29 (Promega, Madison WI), a reporter vector containing a cAMP response element (CRE) that drives the transcription of the luc2P luciferase reporter gene, with 100 ng of human pCMVSPORT6-GPBAR1, and with 100 ng of pGL4.70.
24 hours after transfection, the cells were stimulated for 18 hours with specific receptor agonists CDCA (10 µM) or TLCA (10 µM) or with the derivatives CHIN104-112 and CHIN114-121 (10 µM and 50 µM). In another experimental set, 24 hours after transfection, the cells were stimulated with 50 µM of the derivatives CHIN in combination with 10 µM of CDCA or TLCA.
For dose-response curves, the cells were stimulated with increasing concentrations of the compounds of interest (0.1-75 µM). Eighteen hours after stimulation, the cell lysates were used to assess Luciferase and Renilla activity by means of the Dual-Luciferase Reporter assay (E1980, Promega Madison WI). The luminescence was measured using the Glomax 20/20 luminometer (Promega, Madison WI) and the Luciferase activity was normalised with the Renilla activity.
The antagonistic activity assay was performed by Eurofins Cerep-Panlabs (France). The cells were suspended in DMEM buffer (Invitrogen), then plated at a density of 3·104 cells/plate. The fluorescent probe (Fluo4 Direct, Invitrogen) mixed with probenicid in HBSS buffer (Invitrogen) supplemented with 20 mM Hepes (Invitrogen) (pH 7.4) is then added to each well and left with the cells for 60 min at 37° C. and then for 15 min at 22° C. The plates are then placed in a microplate reader (CellLux, PerkinElmer), which is used to add the compounds to be tested or the HBSS buffer and then after 5 min with a 0.1 nM LTD4 or HBSS buffer solution (used as control). The change in intensity and fluorescence that varies in proportion to the concentration of free Ca2+ ion in the cytosol is measured. The result is expressed as a percentage of inhibition compared to the control response to 0.1 nM LTD4. The standard antagonist reference is MK 571.
CHIN117 and the effect thereof in reducing acetaminophen-induced liver damage (APAP) are of particular interest. In the experimental set, acute hepatitis was induced in wild-type C57/B16 mice by administration of acetaminophen (APAP) at a concentration of 500 mg/kg via oral gavage. 45 minutes after induction of the disease, CHIN117 was administered at a concentration of 30 mg/kg orally. The mice were sacrificed 24 hours after induction of the disease and blood was taken and analysed for blood count and AST and ALT transaminase values.
The results show (
CHIN117 and the efficacy thereof in a murine model of chronic hepatitis induced by a high-fat diet are of particular interest. This murine model simulates NAFLD, which represents a rapidly growing epidemic in industrialised countries and has a very high cost for the health care system. In this model, the mice (male C57BL/6 mice) were fed a diet rich in lipids and cholesterol (2% cholesterol) and added fructose (3%) in water (HFD-F) for 60 days. CHIN117 was administered daily at a dose of 30 mg/kg starting on day 7. The weight trend shows that CHIN117 reduces weight gain by about 3 grams (
The mice fed an HFD-F diet for 8 weeks develop characteristics similar to human NASH as revealed by the H&E staining in liver sections, with micro-vesicular steatosis, swelling of hepatocytes, lobular inflammation and influx of macrophages (
CHIN117 is of particular interest for its excellent pharmacokinetic properties with an aqueous solubility at pH 7.4 equal to 66 µM and a LogD =2.0 and for its promising metabolic stability upon exposure in vitro to microsomal enzymes at t½ = 578 min (CLint = 4) and to the S9 fraction, which also contains enzymes responsible for phase II metabolism, at t½ = 385 min (CLint = 6).
