Description
FIELD OF INVENTION

The present invention relates to a spirocyclic aryl phosphorus oxide or sulfide as an ALK inhibitor, particularly, a compound represented by formula (I) as an ALK inhibitor or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.


PRIOR ARTS

Protein kinase plays a leading regulating and controlling role in almost all types of cell biological activity, including proliferation, apoptosis, cell skeleton rearrangement, differentiation, development, immune response, functions and conduction of nervous system. In addition, many diseases and (or) disorders are associated with activity disorder, abnormity or imbalance of one or more than one kinases.


Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is a part of the receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) protein family. ALK gene provides an instruction to make receptor tyrosine kinase protein transmit the signal from the surface of a cell to internal by a procedure of signal transmission. The procedure starts with stimulating the kinases of the cell surface and the dimerization of the kinases. After the dimerization, kinase was marked by a phosphate group, which is called phosphorylation. This process activates the kinases. The activated kinases can transfer the phosphate group to another protein in the cell, and further phosphorylate a series of downstream protein. This signal transmission pathway is very important to many cellular processes, such as cell growth and segmentation (proliferation) or cell maturation (differentiation).


Although the specific functions of anaplastic lymphoma kinase are unclear, but it is generally believed it can help regulating the proliferation of nerve cells in the early development of nerve cells.


The mutation of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene is the change of the amino acid which is the basic unit of a protein. In some cancer patients bearing neuroblastoma and the tumer formed by immature neurons (neuroblast), it has been identified 16 mutational ALK genes at least. The development of neuroblastoma and other cancers is due to the gene mutation of some key genes (which control the proliferation and differentiation of the cells), which makes the growth and segmentation of the cells uncontrolled thereby forming the turner.


The most common mutation causing the neuroblastoma is at the position of 1275, where arginine is replaced by glutamic acid (marked with Arg1275Gln or R1275Q). Arg1275Gln mutation has been found in hereditary and distributed neuroblastoma, and it is also the only common ALK mutation that been found in both cases.


The mutation or excessive expression anaplastic lymphoma kinase no longer needs extracellular stimulation to be phosphorylated. Therefore, kinase and downstream signaling pathways are uninterruptedly connected (constitutive activation). The constitutive activation of anaplastic lymphoma kinase can improve the proliferation of the immature nerve cells, thereby leading to neuroblastoma. The rearrangement of ALK genes at chromosome 2 increases the risk of other cancers. These rearrangements are somatic mutations, which exist in one's life, and only show up when cells cancerate.


A type of rearrangement calls translocation, which is an exchange of genetic material between chromosome 2 and other chromosome. In the crowd with anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), the translocation of 15 kinds of the ALK genes has been identified at least. Anaplastic large cell lymphomas occurs in those immune cells called T cells, which is a rare form of cancer. The most common occurrence of translocation in ALCL is between chromosome 2 and chromosome 5, known as t (2, 5). The translocation leads to a mix of the ALK gene and the NPM gene, thereby forming a NPM-ALK mix protein. In addition, the translocation of 7 kinds of ALK gene has been identified in the inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) at least. IMT is a rare cancer, characterized by that the solid tumor is composed of inflammatory cells and a kind of myofibroblasts which plays a very important role in wound healing. About half of the crowd with IMT is related to the ALK gene translocation.


Another type of rearrangement calls reversion, where the chromosome 2 is broken into two parts, and the resultant fragments of DNA are reversed and reinserted into the chromosome. Non-small cell lung cancer is a kind of the most common lung cancer, in a small number of patients, chromosome 2 reversion occurrs. This reversion leads to a mix of the ALK gene and another gene called EML4, thereby forming an EML4-ALK mix protein. The mix protein produced by the rearrangement of genes has a dual function of anaplastic lymphoma kinase and chaperonin.


Recently, ALK has always been a popular anti-tumor research target, Mesatros summarized the progress of this field (Expert Opin. Ther Patents, 2014, 24 (4), 1). Crizotinib is the first ALK inhibitor approved by FDA, which is used in treating ALK positive lung cancer. Although the initial response of Crizotinib is very effective, but due to drug resistance, recurrence occurrs in most of the patients at the first year of the treatment. On Apr. 29, 2014, Ceritinib was approved by FDA to be used in the treatment of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) positive metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including the patients treated with Crizotinib effectively but having drug resistance. Some compounds are used to treat cancer in the clinical researches, such as Alectinib, AP-26113, etc. Some heterocyclic compounds have been also disclosed for the treatment of various cancers. Patents include WO2014033136, WO2014025128, WO2014006554 WO2014002922, WO2013192512, WO2013177092, WO2013148857, WO2013138210, WO2012139499, and WO2012140114.


However, although more than half of the patients with NSCLC are treated well with Crizotinib, the drug resistance will always occur during the period of treatment, thereby leading to the losing of the drug's effectiveness. In recent years, ALK inhibitors for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer are vigorously developed both at home and abroad, but the effect is not satisfactory. Therefore, it is urgent to develop new, more efficient and safer ALK inhibitors.


The present invention relates to a series of novel spirocyclic aryl phosphorus oxides and sulfides, and this series of compounds are the inhibitors of ALK and its mutants which can be used to treat cancers and other diseases. The novel spirocyclic aryl phosphorus oxides and sulfides in the present invention unexpectedly show better inhibitory activity against ALK, ALK mutants and EGFR mutation enzyme than AP26113; and these compounds also show better efficacy in vivo than the control compound AP26113 in the PDX models of NSCLC cell lines and Crizotinib resistance obtained from ALK positive patients. Therefore, these compounds may provide more effective treatment in the disease caused by ALK enzyme abnormalities.

The term “pharmaceutically acceptable” is employed herein to refer to those compounds, materials, compositions, and/or dosage forms which are within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human beings and animals without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problems or complications, commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio.


The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” is a salt of the compound of the invention which is prepared by a relatively nontoxic acid or base and the compound of the invention having particular substituents. When the compound of the invention contains a relatively acidic functional group, a base addition salt can be obtained by contacting a neutral form of such compound with a sufficient amount of a desired base, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of the pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts include a salt of sodium, potassium, calcium, ammonium, organic amine, or magnesium, or a similar salt. When the compound of the invention contains a relatively basic functional group, an acid addition salt can be obtained by contacting a neutral form of such compound with a sufficient amount of a desired acid, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include salts of inorganic acids, the inorganic acid includes hydrochloric, hydrobromic, nitric acid, carbonic acid, bicarbonate, phosphoric acid, hydrogen phosphate, dihydrogen phosphate, sulfuric acid, bisulfate, hydriodic acid, phosphorous acid and the like; as well as the salts of organic acids, the organic acid includes acetic acid, propionic acid, isobutyric acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, benzoic acid, succinic acid, suberic acid, fumaric acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, phthalic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid and methanesulfonic acid, or the like; and also include salts of amino acids (such as arginine and the like), and salts of organic acids like glucuronic acid and the like (see, Berge et al., “Pharmaceutical Salts”, Journal of Pharmaceutical Science 66: 1-19 (1977)). Certain specific compounds of the invention contain both basic and acidic functional groups that allow the compounds to be converted into either base or acid addition salts.


Preferably, the neutral form of the compound is regenerated by contacting the salt with a base or an acid and then isolating the parent compound in a conventional manner. The parent form of the compound differs from its various salt forms in certain physical properties, such as the solubility in polar solvents.


As used herein, “pharmaceutically acceptable salts” refers to derivatives of the compound of the invention wherein the parent compound is modified by forming a salt with an acid or a base. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, inorganic acid or organic acid salts of a basic group such as an amine; alkali metal or organic salts of an acidic group such as carboxylic acid; and the like. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts include the conventional non-toxic salts or the quaternary ammonium salts of the parent compound formed, for example, from non-toxic inorganic or organic acids. Such conventional non-toxic salts include, but are not limited to, those derived from inorganic and organic acids selected from 2-acetoxybenzoic acid, 2-hydroxyethane sulfonic acid, acetic acid, ascorbic acid, benzene sulfonic acid, benzoic acid, bicarbonate, carbonic acid, citric acid, edetic acid, ethane disulfonic acid, ethane sulfonic acid, fumaric acid, glucoheptonic acid, gluconic acid, glutamic acid, glycolic acid, hydrobromic acid, hydrochloric acid, hydriodate, hydroxyl, hydroxynaphthoic, isethionic acid, lactic acid, lactose, lauryl sulfonic acid, maleic acid, malic acid, mandelic acid, methane sulfonic acid, nitric acid, oxalic acid, pamoic acid, pantothenic acid, phenylacetic acid, phosphoric acid, polygalactose aldehyde, propionic acid, salicylic acid, stearic acid, folinic acid, succinic acid, sulfamic acid, sulfanilic acid, sulfuric acid, tannic acid, tartaric acid, and p-toluenesulfonic acid.


The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the present invention can be synthesized from the parent compound that contains a basic or acidic moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acid or base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or an organic solvent or a mixture of the two; generally, non-aqueous media like ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol or acetonitrile or the like is preferred.


In addition to salt forms, the present invention provides the compound which is in a prodrug form. The prodrug of the compound described herein readily undergoes chemical changes under physiological conditions to provide the compound of the invention. Additionally, the prodrug can be converted to the compound of the invention by chemical or biochemical methods in an in vivo environment.


Certain compounds of the invention can exist in unsolvated forms or solvated forms, including hydrated forms. In general, the solvated forms are equivalent to unsolvated forms and all are encompassed within the scope of the present invention. Certain compounds of the invention may exist in polycrystalline or amorphous forms.


Certain compounds of the invention may possess asymmetric carbon atoms (optical centers) or double bonds; the racemates, diastereomers, geometric isomers and individual isomers are all encompassed within the scope of the present invention.


The graphic representations of racemic, ambiscalemic and scalemic or enantiomerically pure compounds used herein are taken from Maehr, J. Chem. Ed. 1985, 62: 114-120. Wedges and broken lines are used to denote the absolute configuration of a stereocenter unless otherwise noted. When the compounds described herein contain olefinic double bonds or other centers of geometric asymmetry, and unless specified otherwise, it is intended that the compounds include both E and Z geometric isomers. Likewise, all tautomeric forms are included within the scope of the invention.


Compounds of the invention can exist in particular geometric or stereoisomeric forms. The invention contemplates all such compounds, including cis- and trans-isomers, (−)- and (+)-enantiomers, (R)- and (S)-enantiomers, diastereomers, (D)-isomers, (L)-isomers, the racemic mixtures thereof, and other mixtures thereof, such as enantiomerically or diastereomerically enriched mixtures, and all these mixtures encompassed within the scope of the invention. Additional asymmetric carbon atoms can be present in a substituent such as an alkyl group. All such isomers, as well as mixtures thereof, are intended to be included in this invention.


Optically active (R)- and (S)-isomers and D and L isomers can be prepared by chiral synthsises or chiral reagents, or other conventional techniques. If a particular enantiomer of the compound of the present invention is desired, it can be prepared by asymmetric synthesis, or by derivatization with a chiral auxiliary, where the resultant diastereomeric mixture is separated and the auxiliary group is cleaved to provide the pure desired enantiomers. Alternatively, where the molecule contains a basic functional group (such as an amino group) or an acidic functional group (such as a carboxyl group), diastereomeric salts can be formed with an appropriate optically active acid or base, followed by resolution of the diastereomers by fractional crystallization or chromatographic means known in the art, and subsequent recovery of the pure enantiomers. In addition, separation of enantiomers and diastereomers is frequently accomplished by chromatography employing chiral, stationary phases, optionally in combination with chemical derivatization (e.g., formation of carbamates from amines).


The compounds of the invention may also contain unnatural proportions of atomic isotopes at one or more of the atoms that constitute such compounds. For example, the compounds may be radiolabeled with radioactive isotopes, such as tritium (3H), iodine-125 (125I) or carbon-14 (14C). All isotopic variations of the compounds of the invention, regardless of radioactivity, are intended to be encompassed within the scope of the present invention.


The term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” refers to any formulation or carrier medium that is capable of delivery of an effective amount of an active agent of the invention without toxic side effects on a host or patient. Representative carriers include water, oil, both vegetable and mineral, cream bases, lotion bases, ointment bases and the like. These bases include suspending agents, thickeners, penetration enhancers, and the like. Their formulation is well known to those in the art of cosmetics and topical pharmaceuticals. Additional information concerning carriers can be found in Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 21st Ed., Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins (2005), which is incorporated herein by reference.


The term “excipients” conventionally means carriers, diluents and/or vehicles needed in formulating effective pharmaceutical compositions.


The terms “effective amount” or “therapeutically effective amount” for a drug or pharmacologically active agent refers to a nontoxic but sufficient amount of a drug or agent to provide the desired effect. In the oral dosage form of the present disclosure, an “effective amount” of an active agent contained in the composition refers to the amount of the active agent required to provide the desired effect when used in combination with the other active agent of the composition. The amount that is “effective” will vary from subject to subject, depending on the age and general condition of a recipient, and also a particular active agent, and an appropriate effective amount in an individual case may be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art using routine experimentation.


The terms “active ingredient,” “therapeutic agent,” “active substance,” or “active agent” mean a chemical entity which can be effective in treating a targeted disorder, disease or condition.


The term “substituted” means that any one or more hydrogens on a designated atom is replaced with a substituent, including a deuterium and a variant of hydrogen, provided that the designated atom's valency is normal, and that the substituted compound is stable. When a substituent is keto (i.e., ═O), it means that 2 hydrogen atoms are replaced. Keto substituents are not present on aromatic moieties. The term “optionally substituted” means that the designated atom can be substituted or unsubstituted, and unless otherwise stated, the species and number of the substituents may be arbitrary provided that they can be achieved in chemistry.


When any variable (e.g., R) occurs more than once in the constituent or structure of a compound, its definition at each occurrence is independent. Thus, for example, if a group is substituted with 0-2Rs, then said group may optionally be substituted with up to two R groups and R at each occurrence has independent options. Also, combinations of substituents and/or variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds.


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 atom on the ring. When a substituent is listed without indicating via which atom such substituent is bonded to the compound of a general formula including unspecified ones, then such substituent may be bonded via any atom therein. Combinations of substituents and/or variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds.


Substituents of the alkyl and heteroalkyl radicals (including those groups often referred to as alkylene, alkenyl, heteroalkylene, heteroalkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, and heterocycloalkenyl) are generically referred to as “alkyl group substituents,” and they can be selected from, but not limited to the group consisting of —R′, —OR′, ═O, ═NR′, ═N—OR′, —NR′R″, —SR′, halogen, —SiR′R″R′″, OC(O)R′, —C(O)R′, —CO2R′, —CONR′R″, —OC(O)NR′R″, —NR″C(O)R′, NR′C(O)NR″R′″, —NR″C(O)2R′, —NR′″″, —C(NR′R″R′″)═NR″″, NR″″ C(NR′R″)═NR′″, —S(O)R′, —S(O)2R′, —S(O)2NR′R″, NR″SO2R′, —CN, —NO2, —N3, —CH(Ph)2, and fluoro(C1-C4)alkyl, with a number of substitutents ranging from zero to (2m′+1), where m′ is the total number of carbon atoms in such radical. Each of R′, R″, R′″, R″″ and R′″″ is preferably independently selected from hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl (e.g., aryl substituted with 1-3 halogens), substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, alkoxy or thioalkoxy groups, or arylalkyl groups. When a compound of the invention includes more than one R groups, for example, each of the R groups is independently selected as each R′, R″, R′″, R″″ and R′″″ groups is when more than one of these groups are present. When R′ and R″ are attached to the same nitrogen atom, they can be combined with the nitrogen atom to form a 5-, 6-, or 7-membered ring. For example, —NR′R″ is meant to include, but not be limited to, 1-pyrrolidinyl and 4-morpholinyl. From the above discussion on substituents, one of skill in the art will understand that the term “alkyl” is meant to include groups constituted by carbon atoms bonding to groups other than hydrogen groups, such as haloalkyl (e.g., —CF3 and —CH2CF3) and acyl (e.g., —C(O)CH3, —C(O)CF3, —C(O)CH2OCH3, and the like). Similar to the substituents described for the alkyl radical, substituents of the aryl and heteroaryl groups are generically referred to as “aryl group substituents”. The substituents are selected from, for example: —R′, —OR′, —NR′R″, —SR′, -halogen, —SiR′R″R′″, OC(O)R′, —C(O)R′, —CO2R′, —CONR′R″, —OC(O)NR′R″, —NR″C(O)R′, NR′ C(O)NR″R′″, —NR″C(O)2R′, —NR′″″—C(NR′R″R′″)═NR″″, NR″″C(NR′R″)═NR′″, —S(O)R′, —S(O)2R′, —S(O)2NR′R″, NR″SO2R′, —CN, —NO2, —N3, —CH(Ph)2, fluoro(C1-C4)alkoxy, and fluoro(C1-C4)alkyl, etc., with a number of substitutents ranging from zero to the total number of open valences on the aromatic ring; where each of R′, R″, R′″, R″″ and R′″″ is preferably and independently selected from hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl and substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl. When a compound of the invention includes more than one R groups, for example, each of the R groups is independently selected as each R′, R″, R′″, R″″ and R′″″ groups is when more than one of these groups are present.


Two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally be replaced with a substituent represented by the formula -T-C(O)—(CRR′)q-U—, wherein each of T and U is independently selected from —NR—, —O—, —CRR′— or a single bond, and q is an integer ranging from 0 to 3. Alternatively, two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally be replaced with a substituent represented by the formula -A(CH2)rB—, wherein each of A and B is independently selected from —CRR′—, —O—, —NR—, —S—, —S(O)—, —S(O)2—, —S(O)2NR′— or a single bond, and r is an integer ranging from 1 to 4. One of the single bonds of the thus formed new ring may optionally be replaced with a double bond. Alternatively, two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally be replaced with a substituent represented by the formula -A(CH2)rB—, where each of s and d is independently selected from integers ranging from 0 to 3, and X is —O—, —NR′—, —S—, —S(O)—, —S(O)2—, or —S(O)2NR′—. Each of substituent R, R′, R″ and R′″ is preferably and independently selected from hydrogen and substituted or unsubstituted (C1-C6)alkyl.


The term “halo” or “halogen,” by themselves or as part of another substituent, means, unless otherwise stated, a fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine atom. Additionally, the term “haloalkyl,” is meant to include monohaloalkyl and polyhaloalkyl. For example, the term “halo(C1-C4)alkyl” is mean to include, but not be limited to, trifluoromethyl, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl, 4-chlorobutyl, 3-bromopropyl, and the like.


Examples of haloalkyl include, but are not limited to, trifluoromethyl, trichloromethyl, pentafluoroethyl, and pentachloroethyl. “Alkoxy” represents an alkyl group as defined above with the indicated number of carbon atoms attached through an oxygen bridge. C1-6 alkoxy is intended to include C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, and C6 alkoxy groups. Examples of alkoxy include, but are not limited to, methoxy, ethoxy, n-propoxy, i-propoxy, n-butoxy, s-butoxy, t-butoxy, n-pentoxy, and s-pentoxy. “Cycloalkyl” is intended to include saturated ring groups, such as cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, or cyclopentyl. 3-7 cycloalkyl is intended to include C3, C4, C5, C6, and C7 cycloalkyl groups. “Alkenyl” is intended to include hydrocarbon chains of either straight or branched configuration and one or more unsaturated carbon-carbon double bonds that may occur in any stable point along the chain, such as ethenyl and propenyl.


The term “halo” or “halogen” refers to fluoro, chloro, bromo, and iodo.


As used herein, the term “heteroatom” includes atoms other than carbon (C) and hydrogen (H), including e.g., oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), sulfur (S), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), aluminum (Al) and boron (B), etc.


Unless otherwise specified, the term “hetero”, “heteroatornic” or “heteroradical” (i.e., free radicals including heteroatoms), include the atoms other than carbon (C) and hydrogen (H), also include the radicals of the heteroatom, such as including oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), sulfur (S), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), aluminum (Al) and boron (B), etc., also including any —C(═O)N(H)—, —N(H)—, —C(═NH)—, —S(═O)2N(H)—, or —S(═O)N(H)— which is optionally substituted.


“Ring or cyclo” means a substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, or substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl. The so-called ring includes fused ring moieties. The number of atoms in a ring is typically defined as the members of the ring. For example, a “5- to 7-membered ring” means there are 5 to 7 atoms in the encircling arrangement. Unless otherwise specified, the ring optionally includes one to three heteroatoms. Thus, the term “5- to 7-membered ring” includes, for example phenyl, pyridyl and piperidyl. The term “5- to 7-membered heterocycloalkyl ring” on the other hand, includes pyridyl and piperidyl, but phenyl. The term “ring” further includes a ring system comprising at least one ring, wherein each of the “ring” is independently defined as above.


The term “heterocycle” or “heterocyclo” is intended to mean a stable monocyclic or bicyclic or bicyclic heterocyclic ring which may be saturated, partially unsaturated or unsaturated (aromatic), and includes carbon atoms and 1, 2, 3, or 4 ring heteroatoms independently selected from the group consisting of N, O and S in which any of the above-defined heterocyclic rings may be fused to a benzene ring to form a bicyclic group. The nitrogen and sulfur heteroatoms may optionally be oxidized (i. e., NO and S (O) p). The nitrogen atom may be substituted or unsubstituted (i.e., N or NR wherein R is H or other substituents already defined herein). The heterocyclic ring may be attached to the pendant group of any heteroatom or carbon atom that results in a stable structure. The heterocyclic rings described herein may be substituted on a carbon or on a nitrogen atom if the resultant compound is stable. A nitrogen atom in the heterocycle may optionally be quaternized. In a preferred embodiment, when the total number of S and O atoms in the heterocycle exceeds 1, then these heteroatoms are not adjacent to one another. In another preferred embodiment, the total number of S and O atoms in the heterocycle is no more than 1. As used herein, the term “aromatic heterocyclic group” or “heteroaryl” is intended to mean a stable 5-, 6-, or 7-membered monocyclic or bicyclic or 7-, 8-, 9-, or 10-membered bicyclic heterocyclic aromatic ring which includes carbon atoms and 1, 2, 3, or 4 heterotams independently selected from the group consisting of N, Oand S. The nitrogen atom may be substituted or unsubstituted (i.e., N or NR wherein R is H or other substituents already defined herein). The nitrogen and sulfur heteroatoms may optionally be oxidized (i.e., NO and S (O) p). It is to be noted that total number of S and O atoms in the aromatic heterocycle is no more than 1. Bridged rings are also included in the definition of heterocycle. A bridged ring occurs when one or more than one atoms (i.e., C, O, N, or S) link two non-adjacent carbon or nitrogen atoms. Preferred bridged rings include, but are not limited to, one carbon atom, two carbon atoms, one nitrogen atom, two nitrogen atoms, and a carbon-nitrogen group. It is to be noted that a bridge always converts a monocyclic ring into a tricyclic ring. In a bridged ring, the substituents on the ring may also be present on the bridge.

In Vivo Efficacy Study


The in vivo efficacy data below show that the compounds of the present invention have unexpected antitumor activity and reduced tumor size against both wild type LU-01-0015 xenotransplantation (PDX) model (BALB/c nude mice) source of lung cancer patients and LU-01-0319 Crizotinib resistance model (BALB/c nude mice) over the reference compound AP26113. For example, in the model of LU-01-0015, after 16 days dating from compound 9, 12, 22, 27 etc being administered (25 mg/kg), the tumor volume was reduced to 34-50 nim from 277 mm3, but AP26133 only to 119 mm3.


1. In vivo efficacy experiment on BALB/c nude mice by subcutaneously implanting LU-01-0015 xenotransplantation (PDX) from lung cancer patients


BALB/c nude mice, female. 6 to 8 weeks, about 18 to 22 g bodyweight, was kept in a special environment without pathogens, and a single ventilated cage (5 mice per cage). Beddings and water in all the cages were disinfected before use. All the animal had free access to standard authorized commercially available lab diet. 80 mice were supplied by Shanghai BK Laboratory Animal Co., LTD for study. Each mouse was subcutaneously implanted tumor tissue (20-30 mm3) at right flank for growth of tumor. When the average tumor volume reached about 250-300 mm3, the assay started. Test compounds were delivered orally everyday, 25 mg/kg, Tumor size was measured with two-dimensional caliper every 3 days, size was recorded by mm3, and calculated by the following formula: V=V=0.5a×b2, where a and b are respectively the long diameter and short diameter length of the tumor. The antitumor efficacy was determined by dividing the average increased tumor volume in compound-treated animal by the average increased tumor volume in untreated animal.

2. In vivo anti-tumor efficacy experiment on Crizotinib resistant BALB/c nude mice by subcutaneously implanting LU-01-0319 xenotransplantation (PDX) tumor


LU-01-0319 xenotransplantation tumor models initially obtained from clinical sample through surgical resection were implanted into nude mice, which was defined as a batch of P0 (LU-01-0319-P0). The next batch was defined as P1 (LU-01-0319-P1) which was implanted tumors from P0. FP3 was regained from P2, the next batch was defined as FP4 which was implanted tumors from FP3. After about 2 to 3 weeks, tumor size reached about 300 mm3, and the tumor-bearing mice were treated with Crizotinib. The continuous increasing tumors were defined as LU-01-0319 antitumor models. BALB/c nude mice, female, 6 to 8 weeks, about 18 to 22 g bodyweight, 75 mice were used for study, supplied by Shanghai BK Laboratory Animal Co., LTD. Tumour biopsies (about 30 mm3) of LU-01-0319R FP6 were implanted subcutaneously on right side of each mouse for growth of tumor. About 2 to 3 weeks dating from implanting, tumor size reached about 300 mm3, the turnor-bearing mice were treated with Crizotinib (10/25/50/75 mg/kg). Dose of Crizotinib was appropriately varied depending on the tumor size. When average tumor volume reached about ˜500 mm3, the assay began. Once a day the compounds to be tested were orally administered. Tumor size were measured twice a week with a caliper at two dimensions, and calculated with the following formula: V=0.5a×b2, where a and b are respectively long diameter and short diameter of the tumor. The antitumor efficacy was determined by dividing the average increased tumor volume in compound-treated animal by the average increased tumor volume in untreated animal.
