Description

COMPOUNDS INHIBITORS OF THE PROTEIN ARGININE N-METHYL TRANSFERASE 5 (PRMT5) COOPERATIVE FOR METHYLTHIOADENOSINE (MTA) Field of Invention The present invention relates to compounds that are MTA cooperative inhibitors of protein arginine N-methyl transferase 5 (PRMT5). In particular, the present invention relates to compounds, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds and methods for their use. Background of the Invention Protein arginine N-methyl transferase (PRMT5) is a type II arginine methyltransferase that catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) toward an omega-nitrogen of the guanidino function of L-arginine residues. of the protein (omega-monomethylation) and the transfer of a second methyl group to the other omeganitrogen, to produce symmetrical dimethylarginine (sDMA). PRMT5 forms a complex with MEP50 (methylosome protein 50), which is required for substrate recognition and targeting, and also, for histone 2A and histone 4 methyltransferase activity catalyzed by PRMT5 (e.g., see Ho et al. al., (2013) PLOS ONE 8 (8) : 10.1371 / annotation / e6b5348e-9052-44ab-8f0690d0ldc88fc2). Ref. 331469 Homozygous deletions of pl6 / CDKN2a are prevalent in cancer, and these mutations commonly involve co-deletion of adjacent genes, including the gene encoding methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (ΜΤΆΡ). It is estimated that approximately 15% of all human cancers have a homozygous deletion of the MTAP gene (e.g., see Firestone & Schramm (2017) J. Am. Chem Soc. 139(39):1375413760. doi: 10.1021 / jacs.7b05803. Epub 2017 Sep 20). Cells lacking MTAP activity have elevated levels of the MTAP substrate methylthioadenosine (MTA), which is a potent inhibitor of PRMT5. Inhibition of PRMT5 activity results in reduced methylation activity and increased sensitivity of cell proliferation to loss of PRMT5 activity or depletion. Therefore, loss of MTAP activity reduces PRMT5 methylation activity, making cells selectively dependent on PRMT5 activity. Brief Description of the Invention Therefore, we realized that MTA cooperative inhibition of PRMT5 activity in MTAP-deleted cancers will provide therapeutic benefit for a wide range of cancer types. The compounds of the present invention provide this therapeutic benefit as cooperative MTA inhibitors of PRMT5 that negatively modulate the activity of MTA-bound PRMT5 in a cell, particularly an MTAP-deficient cell, or for the treatment of various forms of MTAP-associated cancer. .
