In accordance with the purposes of the present invention, as embodied and broadly described herein, the present invention includes styryl quinazoline derivatives of the general formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable solvates, hydrates, salts, regioisomeric and polymorphic forms thereof as well as pharmaceutical compositions containing at least one of the described compounds as pharmaceutically active agent, together with pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, excipient and/or diluents and the use of them for therapeutic or preventive purposes, especially regarding cancer or any other form of neo- or hyperplasias.
Moreover, the present invention provides processes for the preparation of the described compounds. The styryl quinazoline derivatives disclosed in this invention have been identified as new drug candidates for the prevention and/or treatment of diseases related to disfunction(s) of hematopoiesis and cancer or any other form of neo- or hyperplasias related to (depending on) Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) containing Internal Tandem Duplications (ITD), especially in the case of myeloid leukemia. Accordingly, the styryl quinazoline derivatives of the general formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable solvates, hydrates, salts, regioisomeric and polymorphic forms thereof have inhibitory effect on Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) containing Internal Tandem Duplications (ITD).
The discussed styryl quinazoline compounds have been also identified as new drug candidates as antibacterial agents (having bactericidal or bacteriostatic activity) which can be used for the prevention and/or treatment of bacterial infectious diseases e.g. meningitis of bacterial origin, gastroenteritis of bacterial origin, E-coli and Staphylococcus saprophyticus caused Urinary Tract Infections (UTI), E. coli, Shigella and Campylobacter associated Hemolytic-Uremic Syndrome (HUS), infected peritonitis, infectious mastitis, bacteraernia (bacteria caused sepsis), E. coli, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas, B. fragilis and Enterococcus caused cholecystitis, and common types of pneumonia.
Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3), also known as Cluster of Differentiation antigen 135 (CD135), Fetal liver kinase-2 (Flk2) and Stem cell Tyrosine Kinase 1 (STK1) is a human protein (Uniprot ID: P36888) encoded by the human gene FLT3 (HGNC ID: 3765). This protein is specifically appearing on the surface of hematopoietic progenitor cells after they cease to be hematopoietic stem cells related to FLT3 expression. FLT3 regulates the maturation processes in order to develop them into functional blood cells, especially to develop properly functioning lymphocytes, alias T-cells and B-cells. The hematopoietic progenitor cells are multipotent cells, and the dysregulation of their differentiation processes often results pathologic conditions. FLT3 is one the most important regulators of this cellular maturation process, therefore mutations or overexpression of this protein are associated with several types of blood cell malignancies, including acute myeloid leukemia. As more and more information has been gathered about FLT3's role as an oncogene, FLT3's Internal Tandem Duplications (ITD) type of mutation is by now considered as a disease-specific ‘driver’ mutation. FLT(ITD) is a mutation that is a crucial turning point-like factor that moves differentiation and proliferation processes toward the initiation and progression of acute myeloid leukemia in a disease-specific way. The unique expression pattern of the mutated protein makes it a highly promising target in terms of developing really targeted and protein-specific signal transduction therapies.
FLT3 is a member of receptor tyrosine kinases class III. This class's domain structure significantly differs from the other classes' and the class contains only a few members. The kinase domain of FLT3 is relatively different compared to the mainstream targeted Tyrosine Kinases This fact indicates that the potent inhibitors of FLT3(ITD) are having a rather selective profile among Receptor Tyrosine Kinases. The effectiveness and the selectivity has been proven by in vitro biochemical assays, cellular viability assays and using a wide kinase selectivity panel.
As it was mentioned above, the styryl quinazoline compounds according to the present invention also can be applied as antibacterial agents (having bactericidal or bacteriostatic activity) for the prevention and/or treatment of bacterial infectious diseases such as meningitis of bacterial origin, gastroenteritis of bacterial origin, E. coli and Staphylococcus saprophyticus caused Urinary Tract Infections (UTI), E. coli, Shigella and Campylobacter associated Hemolytic-Uremic Syndrome (HUS), infected peritonitis, infectious mastitis, bacteraernia (bacteria caused sepsis), E. coli, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas, B. fragilis and Enterococcus caused cholecystitis, and common types of pneumonia.
Pathogenic bacteria are a major cause of human death and disease and cause infectious diseases—besides inflammation based pathogenic states mentioned above—such as tetanus, typhoid fever, diphtheria, syphilis, cholera, foodborne illness, leprosy and tuberculosis. Bacterial infections may be treated with antibiotics (antibacterial agents), which are classified as bactericidal if they kill bacteria, or bacteriostatic if they just prevent bacterial growth.
Escherichia coli (E. coli, named after Theodor Escherich) is a Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacterium of the genus Escherichia that is commonly found in the lower intestine of endothermic organisms.
Most E. coli strains are harmless, but certain serotypes are pathogenic to humans or domestic animals. Virulent strains of E. coli are the dominant causes of various diseases; such as meningitis, gastroenteritis and UTI and less often can cause HUS, peritonitis, mastitis, bacteraernia and gram-negative pneumonia. Certain strains of E. coli produce also potentially lethal toxins, e.g. Enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC), Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC), Enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC), Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC), Enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC) which are causative agents of diarrhea and other gastrointestinal symptoms, and Uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) which causes urinary tract inflammation and infection. There are also some E. coli strains that contain a polyketide synthase (PKS) genomic island whose function is to encode multiple PKSs, a multi-enzymatic machinery that produces a genotoxic substance, named colibactin. This substance can promote tumorigenesis by DNA damage.

Hyperplasia (or “hypergenesis”) is a general term referring to the proliferation of cells within an organ or tissue beyond that which is ordinarily seen. Hyperplasia may result in the gross enlargement of an organ and the term is sometimes mixed with benign neoplasia/benign tumor.
Neoplasm is an abnormal mass of tissue as a result of neoplasia. Neoplasia is the abnormal proliferation of cells. The growth of the cells exceeds, and is uncoordinated with that of the normal tissues around it. The growth persists in the same excessive manner even after cessation of the stimuli. It usually causes a lump or tumor. Neoplasms may be benign, pre-malignant or malignant.
FLT3 is naturally expressed by immature hematopoietic (blood cell forming) cells and is important for the normal development of stem cells and the immune system. The ligand for FLT3 synergizes with other growth factors to stimulate proliferation of stem cells, progenitor cells, dendritic cells, and natural killer cells. Mutations of FLT3 (mainly the FLT3[ITD] mutation which is investigated in our case) have been detected in about 30% of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia and a small number of patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. FLT3 is also expressed in a wild type form at high levels in 70% to 100% of cases of acute myelogenous leukemia and in a high percentage of acute lymphocytic leukemia cases [D. Gary Gilliland and James D. Griffin: The roles of FLT3 in hematopoiesis and leukemia, Sep. 1, 2002; Blood: 100 (5)].

Biological Methods
Biochemical Activity Assays
FLT3(ITD) biochemical assays were performed on two different assay system platforms, using Transcreener® ADP Assay FP method (BellBrook Labs, Madison, Wis., US) and IMAP® FP biochemical activity assays (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, Calif., US).
In each case the assays were performed in low protein binding, black, round bottom 384-well plates type 3676 (Corning, One Riverfront Plaza, NY, US). Kinase inhibitor compounds were dissolved in 100% DMSO to 5 mM and then we prepared serial dilutions in order to determine IC50 values.
In the TranScreener® FLT3(ITD) assay we used the following materials in the following final concentrations for the reaction: 8 nM FLT3(ITD) (ProQinase, Freiburg, Germany), 0.05 mg/ml Poly Glu-Tyr peptide (Sigma-Aldrich, Budapest, Hungary) as a substrate, 20 mM HEPES pH 7.5 (Sigma-Aldrich), 1 mM DTT (Sigma-Aldrich), 3 mM MgCl2 (Sigma-Aldrich), 3 mM MnCl2 (Sigma-Aldrich), and 0.01 V % V Tween20 (Sigma-Aldrich) as a detergent. The kinase reaction had started by the addition of 2 μl 5× enzyme, and the reaction had been progressing in the volume of 10 μl for 1 hour at room temperature. The reaction has been stopped by adding 10 μl Transcreener® Stop and Detection Solution and had been incubated for additional 1 hour. The solution contained in every case 20 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 40 mM EDTA, 0.02 V/V % Brij35 and 3 nM ADP Alexa633 Tracer. The ADP antibody concentration was 2.08 μg/ml according to the Kmapp value which was 1 μM. Then fluorescence polarization and fluorescence intensity was measured using Analyst GT Multimode Reader (Molecular Devices).
In the IMAP FP assay the reaction conditions were the following: 16-45 nM FLT3(ITD) (ProQinase), 400 nM 5TAMRA-GEEPLYWSFPAKKK-NH2 dyed peptide for substrate (Genecust, Dudelenge, Luxembourg), 20 mM HEPES pH 8, 1 mM DTT, 10 mM MgCl2, 2 mM MnCl2, and 0.01V % V Brij35 detergent (Sigma-Aldrich). The ATP concentration was 5.1 μM. The kinase reaction had started by the addition of 2 μl 5× enzyme, and the reaction had been progressing in the volume of 10 μl for 1 hour at room temperature and then was terminated by adding 10 μl IMAP Detection mixture. Fluorescence polarization and fluorescence intensity was measured using Analyst GT Multimode Reader (Molecular Devices) after 1.5 hour of incubation on room temperature.
Cell Line and Cell Viability Assays
The cell line used was MV4-11, obtained from ATCC (American Type Culture Collection, Manassas, Va., US). It is a biphenotypic B myelomonocytic leukemia macrophage cell line which expresses exclusively the mutated form of FLT3, the above described FLT3(ITD). Using MV4-11 cell line, we performed cell viability assays, where the kinase inhibitors were incubated with the cells for 72 hours on 37° C./98.6° F. in 5 V/V % CO2 atmosphere in serial dilutions in order to determine IC50 values. For the detection of the percentage of the survived cells we used CellTiter Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay (Promega, Madison, Wis., US). The assays were performed according to the manufacturer's instructions except for the volumes used: we added 33.3 μl CellTiter Glo® Reagent to 66.6 μl of media containing the treated cells. Luminescence was measured using Analyst GT Multimode Reader (Molecular Devices).
In all cases of the biochemical and cellular assays we used Microsoft Excel (Microsoft Corp., Redmond, Wash., US) for data processing and for generating IC50 curves we used XLfit curve fitting add-in software (Guildford, UK) for Microsoft Office Excel.
Biological Results
The enzyme assay was performed using TranScreener® (BellBrook Labs) IMAP FP® (Molecular Devices) biochemical enzyme activity assay systems. Compounds were original molecules produced by Vichem Chemie Research Ltd. and were described above in detail. Primary screening was performed in one concentration (10 μM) of the compounds. Hits were subsequently measured in a twelve-point serial dilution set in order to determine compound specific IC50 values. The assay conditions were described above. In each case we used Sunitinib, marketed as Sutent® by Pfizer, which is a broad-spectrum kinase inhibitor and a known inhibitor of FLT3 as well. Kinase assays were considered as acceptable when the Z prime value was >0.5. In each case the average of the parallel measurements is shown.
The cell viability assays were performed on the MV4-11 cell line using Promega's CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay method following the instructions of the supplier except the conditions described above. Primary screening was performed in one concentration (10 μM) of the compounds. Hits were subsequently measured in a ten-point serial dilution set in order to determine compound specific IC50 values.
In order to define the selectivity profile of styryl quinazoline derivatives enclosed in this invention we chose a both structurally and bioactive representative compound (Example 11). The measurements were performed by DiscoveRx Corp. (Fremont, Calif., US). The compound was tested in the scanMAX™ Kinase Assay Panel which covers more than 80% of the human protein kinome. It's an activation-state specific assay in which 456 kinases were tested using the compound at the concentration of 5 μM. The results are represented here as the percentage of activity loss caused by the compound.

Based on our measurements and the scientific literature we conclude that the presented styryl quinazoline derivatives are candidates for further development of signal transduction cancer therapy, especially for AML patients. The compounds are highly selective for FLT3 mutations, they have a considerably good IC50 values in in vitro FLT3(ITD) biochemical assay and in MV11-4 cell viability assay. Together with the known effect of styryl quinazolines on P53 tumor suppressor protein the data presented shows that they are potent candidates to develop a selective and sophistically targeted therapy in case of FLT3(ITD) and other FLT3 mutations which is fairly common among leukemia patients.
The European Committee for Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) defines the Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) as the lowest concentration of an antibiotic that inhibits the growth of a bacterial inoculum, under defined in vitro conditions. The MICs were determined for Escherichia coli strains LMC500 (F, araD139, D(argF-lac)U169deoC1, flbB5301, ptsF25, rbsR, relA1, rpsIL150, lysA1) and BW25113 (F, DE(araD-araB)567, lacZ4787(del):rmB-3, LAM, rph-1, DE(rhaD-rhaB)568, hsdR514 dAcrA dAcrB dtolC). The former stain is a wild type E. coli K12 strain and the latter strain modified in such a way that it cannot produce the ToIC multidrug efflux pump. Therefore, it is expected to be more susceptible to inhibitors that may be otherwise ignored. The defined medium used was tryptone yeast-extract (TY)-medium composed of 10 g/l Tryptone (Bacto), 5 g/l yeast extract (Bacto) and 5 g/l NaCl.
The compounds were diluted to stock solutions of 1024 μg/ml in MilliQ ultrafiltrated distilled water (hereinafter MilliQ) and in DMSO and in a varying composition mixture of MilliQ and DMSO. Solubility was tested by visual inspection and poorly dissolving compounds were dissolved in higher concentrations of DMSO in the mixture but not higher than 50% to prevent adverse effects on bacterial growth by the suspension form it self. For the MIC test first the compounds were diluted to 256 μg/ml in MilliQ and two-fold serial dilutions in MilliQ were prepared from well A to D or E to H in a 96-well plate with an end volume of 75 μl. The inoculum was prepared by suspending a logarithmically growing bacterial culture in 2×TY medium to match an optical density at 600 nm wavelength (OD600) of 0.001 (cuvettes 1 cm in diameter, VWR) using a spectrophotometer (Biochrom Libra S22). Seventy-five μl of this suspension was then added to the wells, resulting in antibiotic end concentrations ranging from 128 to 16 μg/ml in wells A to D and E to H. Groups without antibiotics but with comparable DMSO concentrations or groups without bacteria served as positive and negative controls, respectively. The 96-wells plates were incubated overnight at 37° C. and were shaken the platereader (SYNERGY BIOTEK) during which the OD600 values were measured every 10 min. The next day the growth data were analysed and MIC values were determined. The inoculum was quantified by plating 10-fold serial dilutions in PBS (10−2 to 10−7) on TY agar plates, which were incubated overnight at 37° C. The next day the colonies were counted and the CFU/well values were calculated. All MIC experiments were performed in duplicates. For those compounds that showed a MIC of less than 16 μg/ml, the assay was repeated with antibiotic end concentrations of 128 to 0.125 μg/ml.
The minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) is defined as the lowest concentration of an antibiotic that, under defined in vitro conditions reduces the number of bacteria by 99.9%. All MIC experiments with compounds exhibiting growth reduction were chosen for MBC testing. MBC tests were performed by plating 10 μl of a finished liquid MIC test from the 96 well plate on TY agar. The plates were then incubated overnight at 37° C. The next day the MBC was determined as the lowest concentration at which less than 10 colonies grew (>99.99% reduction of the inoculum). All MBC experiments were performed in duplicates.
