Abstract
A Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) inhibitor represented by formula (I), a pharmaceutical composition comprising same, and a use thereof for preventing or treating ROCK-mediated diseases.
Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a Rho-associated protein kinase inhibitor, a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same, and use thereof for the prophylaxis or treatment of a disease mediated by the Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK).


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) is a serine/threonine kinase from the AGC kinase family, and comprises two isoforms, ROCK1 and ROCK2. ROCK1 and ROCK2 are expressed and regulated differently in specific tissues. For example, ROCK1 is ubiquitously expressed at a relatively high level, while ROCK2 is preferentially expressed in heart, brain and skeletal muscle. ROCK is the first downstream effector of the Rho protein discovered, and its biological function is achieved by phosphorylating the downstream effector proteins (MLC, Lin-11, Is1-1, LIMK, ERM, MARCKS, CRMP-2 etc.). Studies have shown that various diseases (e.g., pulmonary fibrosis, cardiac-cerebral vascular disease, neurological disease and cancer etc.) are related to the pathways mediated by ROCK. As such, ROCK is considered as an important target in the development of novel drugs.


However, at present, only Fasudil is approved as a ROCK inhibitor for the treatment of cerebral vasospasm and ischemia in Japan. Although various small molecule ROCK inhibitors have been reported by now, most of them are for topical ophthalmic application, and no small molecule ROCK inhibitor suitable for systemic administration is available.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides a compound for use as a ROCK (preferably ROCK2) inhibitor, it has superior properties, such as excellent inhibitory activity on ROCK (preferably ROCk2), good selectivity (higher selectivity towards ROCK2 as compared with ROCK1), better physicochemical properties (e.g., solubility, physical and/or chemical stability), improved pharmacokinetic properties (e.g., improved bioavailability, proper half-life and duration of action), improved safety (low toxicity and/or less side effects, wide therapeutic window), and the like.


According to an aspect of the present invention, a compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, ester, stereoisomer, polymorph, solvate, N-oxide, isotopically labeled compound, metabolite or prodrug thereof is provided, wherein the compound has the structure of Formula (I):

The nitrogen containing heterocycle is optionally benzo-fused, and is preferably attached to the rest of the molecule through the nitrogen atom in said nitrogen containing heterocycle and any carbon atom in the fused benzene ring.


The term “substituted” means that one or more (e.g., one, two, three, or four) hydrogens on the designated atom is replaced with a selection from the indicated group, provided that the designated atom's normal valency under the existing circumstances is not exceeded, and that the substitution results in a stable compound. Combinations of substituents and/or variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds.


If a substituent is described as being “optionally substituted,” the substituent may be either (1) not substituted, or (2) substituted. If a carbon of a substituent is described as being optionally substituted with one or more of a list of substituents, one or more of the hydrogens on the carbon (to the extent there are any) may separately and/or together be replaced with an independently selected optional substituent. If a nitrogen of a substituent is described as being optionally substituted with one or more of a list of substituents, one or more of the hydrogens on the nitrogen (to the extent there are any) may each be replaced with an independently selected optional substituent.


If substituents are described as being “independently selected” from a group, each substituent is selected independent of the other(s). Each substituent therefore may be identical to or different from the other substituent(s).


As used herein, the term “one or more” means one or more than one (e.g., 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10) as reasonable.


As used herein, unless specified, the point of attachment of a substituent can be from any suitable position of the substituent.


When a bond to a substituent is shown to cross a bond connecting two atoms in a ring, then such substituent may be bonded to any of the ring-forming atoms in that ring that are substitutable.


The present invention also includes all pharmaceutically acceptable isotopically labeled compounds, which are identical to those of the present invention except that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having the same atomic number, but an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number which predominates in nature. Examples of isotopes suitable for inclusion in the compound of the present invention include, but are not limited to, isotopes of hydrogen, such as 2H, 3H; carbon, such as 11C, 13C, and 14C; chlorine, such as 36Cl; fluorine, such as 18F; iodine, such as 123I and 125I; nitrogen, such as 13N and 15N; oxygen, such as 15O, 17O, and 18O; phosphorus, such as 32P; and sulfur, such as 35S. Certain isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention, for example those incorporating a radioactive isotope, are useful in drug and/or substrate tissue distribution studies (e.g., assays). The radioactive isotopes tritium, i.e., 3H, and carbon-14, i.e., 14C, are particularly useful for this purpose in view of their ease of incorporation and ready means of detection. Substitution with positron-emitting isotopes, such as 11C, 18F, 15O and 13N, can be useful in positron emission tomography (PET) studies for examining substrate receptor occupancy. Isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention can generally be prepared by processes analogous to those described in the accompanying Schemes and/or in the Examples and Preparations, by using an appropriate isotopically labeled reagent in place of the non-labeled reagent previously employed. Pharmaceutically acceptable solvates in accordance with the invention include those wherein the solvent of crystallization may be isotopically substituted, e.g., D2O, acetone-d6, or DMSO-d6.


The term “stereoisomer” refers to isomers with at least one asymmetric center. A compound having one or more (e.g., one, two, three or four) asymmetric centers can give rise to a racemic mixture, single enantiomer, diastereomer mixture and individual diastereomer. Certain individual molecules may exist as geometric isomers (cis/trans). Similarly, the compound of the present invention may exist as a mixture of two or more structurally different forms in rapid equilibrium (generally referred to as tautomer). Typical examples of a tautomer include a keto-enol tautomer, phenol-keto tautomer, nitroso-oxime tautomer, imine-enamine tautomer and the like. It is to be understood that all such isomers and mixtures thereof in any proportion (such as 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, and 99%) are encompassed within the scope of the present invention.


The chemical bonds of the compound of the present invention may be depicted herein using a solid line (custom-character) a solid wedge (custom-character), or a dotted wedge (custom-character) The use of a solid line to depict bonds to asymmetric carbon atoms is meant to indicate that all possible stereoisomers (e.g., specific enantiomers, racemic mixtures, etc.) at that carbon atom are included. The use of either a solid or dotted wedge to depict bonds to asymmetric carbon atoms is meant to indicate that the stereoisomer shown is present. When present in racemic compounds, solid and dotted wedges are used to define relative stereochemistry, rather than absolute stereochemistry. Unless stated otherwise, it is intended that the compound of the present invention can exist as stereoisomers, which include cis and trans isomers, optical isomers such as R and S enantiomers, diastereomers, geometric isomers, rotational isomers, conformational isomers, atropisomers, and mixtures thereof. The compound of the present invention may exhibit more than one type of isomerism, and consist of mixtures thereof (such as racemates and diastereomeric pairs).


The present invention includes all possible crystalline forms or polymorphs of the compound of the present invention, either as a single polymorph, or as a mixture of more than one polymorphs, in any ratio.


It also should be understood that, certain compounds of the present invention can be used for the treatment in a free form, or where appropriate, in a form of a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative. In the present invention, the pharmaceutically acceptable derivative includes, but is not limited to a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, ester, solvate, N-oxide, metabolite or prodrug, which can directly or indirectly provide the compound of the present invention or a metabolite or residue thereof after being administered to a patient in need thereof. Therefore, “the compound of the present invention” mentioned herein also means to encompass various derivative forms of the compound as mentioned above.


A pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound of the present invention includes an acid addition salt and a base addition salt thereof.


A suitable acid addition salt is formed from an acid which forms a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. Specific examples include acetate, adipate, aspartate, benzoate, besylate, bicarbonate/carbonate, bisulfate/sulfate, borate, camphorsulfonate, citrate, cyclamate, edisylate, esylate, formate, fumarate, gluceptate, gluconate, glucuronate, hexafluorophosphate, hibenzate, hydrochloride/chloride, hydrobromide/bromide, hydroiodide/iodide, isethionate, lactate, malate, maleate, malonate, mesylate, methylsulfate, naphthylate, 2-napsylate, nicotinate, nitrate, orotate, oxalate, palmitate, pamoate, phosphate/hydrogen phosphate/dihydrogen phosphate, pyroglutamate, saccharate, stearate, succinate, tannate, tartrate, tosylate, trifluoroacetate and xinofoate salts.


A suitable base addition salt is formed from a base which forms a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. Specific examples include aluminum, arginine, benzathine, calcium, choline, diethylamine, diolamine, glycine, lysine, magnesium, meglumine, olamine, potassium, sodium, tromethamine and zinc salts.


For a review on suitable salts, see “Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection, and Use” by Stahl and Wermuth (Wiley-VCH, 2002). The method for preparing a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound of the present invention is known to a person skilled in the art.


As used herein, the term “ester” refers to those derived from the compounds of the various formulae in the present application, which include physiologically-hydrolyzable esters (which may be hydrolyzed under physiological conditions to release the compounds of the present invention in the form of free acids or alcohols). The compound of the present invention itself may be an ester as well.


The compound of the present invention can exist as a solvate (preferably a hydrate), wherein the compound of the present invention contains a polar solvent, in particular water, methanol or ethanol for example, as a structural element of the crystal lattice of the compound. The amount of the polar solvent, in particular water, may exist in a stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric ratio.


As can be appreciated by a person skilled in the art, not all nitrogen containing heterocycles can form N-oxides since the nitrogen requires an available lone-pair electron for oxidation to the oxide; a person skilled in the art will recognize those nitrogen containing heterocycles which can form N-oxides. A person skilled in the art will also recognize that tertiary amines can form N-oxides. Synthetic methods for the preparation of N-oxides of heterocycles and tertiary amines are well known to a person skilled in the art, and they include the oxidation of heterocycles and tertiary amines with peroxy acids such as peracetic acid and m-chloroperbenzoic acid (MCPBA), hydrogen peroxide, alkyl hydroperoxides such as tert-butyl hydroperoxide, sodium perborate, and dioxiranes such as dimethyldioxirane. These methods for the preparation of N-oxides have been extensively described and reviewed in literatures, see e.g., T. L. Gilchrist, Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, vol. 7, pp 748-750; A. R. Katritzky and A. J. Boulton, Eds., Academic Press; and G. W. H. Cheeseman and E. S. G. Werstiuk, Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 22, pp 390-392, A. R. Katritzky and A. J. Boulton, Eds., Academic Press.


The metabolite of the compound of the present invention, namely a substance formed in vivo upon administration of the compound of the present invention, is also included within the scope of the present invention. Such a product may result e.g., from the oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis, amidation, de-amidation, esterification, enzymolysis, and the like, of the administered compound. Accordingly, the present invention encompasses the metabolite of the compound of the present invention, including a compound produced by a method comprising contacting the compound of the present invention with a mammal for a period of time sufficient to result in a metabolic product thereof.


Also within the scope of the present invention is a prodrug of the compound of the invention, which is certain derivative of the compound of the invention that may have little or no pharmacological activity itself, but can, when administered into or onto the body, be converted into the compound of the invention having the desired activity, for example, by hydrolytic cleavage. In general, such prodrug will be a functional derivative of the compound which is readily converted in vivo into the compound with desired therapeutic activity. Further information on the use of the prodrug may be found in “Pro-drugs as Novel Delivery Systems, Vol. 14, ACS Symposium Series (T. Higuchi and V. Stella). The prodrug in accordance with the invention can, for example, be produced by replacing appropriate functionalities present in the compound of the present invention with certain moieties known to those skilled in the art as “pro-moieties” as described, for example, in “Design of Prodrugs” by H. Bundgaard (Elsevier, 1985).


The present invention further encompasses the compound of the present invention having a protecting group. During any of the processes for preparation of the compound of the present invention, it may be necessary and/or desirable to protect sensitive or reactive groups on any of the molecules concerned, thereby resulting in the chemically protected form of the compound of the present invention. This may be achieved by means of conventional protecting groups, e.g., those described in T.W. Greene & P.G.M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, John Wiley & Sons, 1991, which is incorporated herein by reference. The protecting groups may be removed at a convenient subsequent stage using methods known from the art.

Step 1:


C1-1 (446 mg, 2.09 mmol) and 2-chloropyrimidin-4-amine (270 mg, 2.09 mmol) were dissolved in NMP (12 mL), cesium carbonate (1.02 g, 3.13 mmol) was added, and the reaction was performed under microwave radiation at 200° C. for 0.5 hour. LC-MS indicated the reaction was complete. Dichloromethane (120 mL) was added at room temperature with stirring, and the stirring was continued for 0.5 hour. The reaction was filtered, and the solid was collected, and dried to afford C1-2 (300 mg, brown solid, yield 56%). MS m/z (ESI): 257.0 [M+H]+.


Step 2:


C1-2 (230 mg, 0.76 mmol), 3,3-difluoroazetidine hydrochloride (197 mg, 1.52 mmol) and HATU (289 mg, 0.76 mmol) were dissolved in DMF (5 mL), DIPEA (294 mg, 2.28 mmol) was added, and the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. LC-MS indicated the reaction was complete. The solvent was removed by evaporation under reduced pressure, and the residue was separated by combi-flash column chromatography on silica gel (methanol/dichloromethane, 0-5%) to afford C1-3 (110 mg, brown solid, yield 43.7%).



1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.74 (d, J=4.3 Hz, 1H), 8.51 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1H), 7.80 (d, J=4.0 Hz, 1H), 7.73 (s, 1H), 7.64 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.11 (s, 2H), 4.80 (s, 4H), 3.65-3.57 (m, 2H), 3.15-3.09 (m, 2H). MS m/z (ESI): 332.0 [M+H]+.


Step 3:


C1-3 (100 mg, 0.3 mmol), 6-bromoisoquinolin-1(2H)-one (67.2 mg, 0.3 mmol) and cesium carbonate (293 mg, 0.9 mmol) were mixed in 1,4-dioxane (5 mL), purge with N2 was performed for 3 times, and then Pd2(dba)3 (27.5 mg, 0.03 mmol) and Xantphos (52 mg, 0.09 mmol) were added. Purge with N2 was performed again for 3 times, and then the reaction was placed in an oil bath at 90° C., and allowed to proceed for 16 hours. LC-MS indicated there was a small amount of the product. Pd2(dba)3 (27.5 mg, 0.03 mmol) and Xantphos (52 mg, 0.09 mmol) were supplemented, and the reaction was further allowed to proceed in an oil bath at 90° C. for 24 hours.

Step 2:


Compound C10-2 (1.0 g, 2.90 mmol) and 2-chloro-5-fluoropyrimidin-4-amine (427 mg, 2.89 mmol) were dissolved in 1,4-dioxane (30 mL), water (3 mL), potassium carbonate (1.2 g, 8.7 mmol) and Pd(dppf)Cl2 (636 mg, 0.87 mmol) were added, purge with nitrogen was performed for three times, and the reaction solution was stirred at 110° C. for 16 hours. LC-MS indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, and concentrated under reduced pressure to remove the solvent. The residue was separated and purified by column chromatography on silica gel (petroleum ether:ethyl acetate=20:1˜5:1), to afford compound C10-3 (700 mg, white solid, yield 66%).



1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.25 (d, J=3.3 Hz, 1H), 8.19-8.12 (m, 2H), 7.40 (s, 1H), 7.34 (s, 2H), 4.63 (d, J=8.7 Hz, 5H), 1.07 (s, 10H). MS m/z (ESI): 330.9 [M+H]+.


Step 3:


Compound C10-3 (560 mg, 1.7 mmol) and 6-bromoisoquinolin-1(2H)-one (380 mg, 0.18 mol) were dissolved in 1,4-dioxane (20 mL), cesium carbonate (1.66 g, 5.09 mmol), Pd2(dba)3 (62 mg, 0.68 mmol) and Xantphos (1.18 g, 2.03 mmol) were added, purge with nitrogen was performed for three times, and the reaction solution was stirred at 110° C. for 16 hours. LC-MS indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, filtered, and the reaction solvent was removed by rotary evaporation invacuum, to afford compound C10-4 (340 mg, yellow solid, yield 66%).


MS m/z (ESI): 473.8 [M+H]+.


Step 4:


Compound C10-4 (340 mg, 0.72 mmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (10 mL), trifluoroacetic acid (5 mL) was added, and the reaction solution was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. LC-MS indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, and the reaction solvent was removed by rotary evaporation in vacuum, to afford compound a crude product of C10-5 (500 mg, yellow solid).


MS m/z (ESI): 374.1 [M+H]+.


Step 5-A:


3,3-difluorocyclobutanol (32 mg, 0.29 mmol) and bis(4-nitrophenyl)carbonate (81 mg, 0.27 mmol) were dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (10 mL), triethylamine (162 mg, 1.61 mmol) was added, and the reaction solution was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. Compound C10-5 (100 mg, 0.27 mol) was added, and the reaction solution was further stirred at room temperature for 16 hours. LC-MS indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, and the reaction solvent was removed by rotary evaporation in vacuum. The residue was separated and purified by preparative chromatography, to afford compound C10 (12.32 mg, yellow solid, yield 9%).

Biological Assay


The kinase IC50 was determined by a commercialized CISBIO kinase detection kit, HTRF KinEASE-STK S2 kit (62ST2PEC). ROCK2 (01-119) employed in the reaction was purchased from Carna Biosciences.


Before the assay, the following working solutions as needed were formulated with corresponding reagents according to the instruction of the kinase detection kit: 1×kinase buffer, 5×STK-S2 substrate working solution (1.5 μM) and 5×ATP working solution (1.5 μM), 5×ROCK2 kinase working solution, 4×Streptavidin-XL665 working solution, and 4×STK-Ab-Cryptate 2 detection solution. Then the assay was performed according to the following procedure.


A solution of a compound at a concentration of 10000 nM was prepared with the 1×kinase buffer containing 2.5% DMSO. Gradient dilution of the solution of the compound was performed with the kinase buffer containing DMSO, so as to obtain solutions of a test compound at 9 different concentrations. In addition to wells of test compounds, a positive well (containing all the reagents except the compound) and a negative well (containing all the reagents except the test compound and kinase) were set. Except for the control wells (positive and negative wells), a solution of a test compound (4 μL) was added to each of the reaction wells, and a solution of 2.5% DMSO was added to the control wells. Then the substrate (2 μM, i.e., 2 μL 5×STK-S2 substrate working solution) was added to each of the reaction wells. The 5×ROCK2 kinase working solution (2 μL, containing 1.4 ng ROCK2 kinase) was added to each of the reaction wells except for the negative well, the volume of which was made up with the 1×kinase buffer (2 μL). The 5×ATP working solution (2 μL) was added to each of the reaction wells, and the mixtures were incubated at room temperature for 2 hours. After the kinase reaction was complete, the 4×Streptavidin-XL665 working solution was added to each of the reaction wells, the solutions were mixed, followed by immediate addition of the 4×STK-Ab-Cryptate 2 detection solution (5 μL), and the mixtures were incubated at room temperature for 1 hour. The fluorescence signal was read on ENVISION (Perkinelmer) (excitation wavelength: 320 inn, and emission wavelength: 665 nm and 615 nm). The inhibitory rate in each well was calculated based on the fluorescence intensity value: ER (Emission Ratio)_(fluorescence intensity at 665 nm/fluorescence intensity at 615 nm); inhibitory rate=(ERpositive−ERtest compound)/(ERpositive−ERnegative)*100%. Curves were plotted and fitted to obtain the median inhibitory concentration (IC50) of each teat compound with the PRISM 5.0 software. According to a biological test method similar to the above, the IC50 values of the compounds on ROCK1 were also tested. The test results are shown in the following table.
