Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of drugs. Specifically, the present invention relates to novel compounds presenting rearranged during transfection (RET) kinase inhibition, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, and the use of the compounds or their pharmaceutical compositions in the preparation of drugs, which are particularly used for treating and preventing RET-related diseases and disorders, including cancer, irritable bowel syndrome and / or pain associated with irritable bowel syndrome. Background Art

[0002] The rearranged during transfection (RET) kinase is one of the receptor tyrosine kinases belonging to the cadherin superfamily, and its activation involves multiple downstream pathways of cell proliferation and survival.

[0003] It has been reported that abnormalities (point mutations, chromosomal translocations, chromosomal inversions, gene amplifications) in the RET gene are involved in carcinogenesis. RET fusion proteins are associated with several cancers, including papillary thyroid cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. The identification of RET fusion proteins as drivers of certain cancers has prompted the use of multi-kinase inhibitors with RET inhibitory activity to treat patients whose tumors express RET fusion proteins. It has been reported that multi-kinase inhibitors such as sorafenib, sunitinib, vandetanib, ponatinib, etc. exhibit cell proliferation inhibitory effects on cell lines expressing KIF5B-RET (J Clin Oncol 30, 2012, suppl; Abstract no: 7510). In addition, it has been reported that the multi-kinase inhibitor cabozantinib showed partial efficacy in two patients with RET fusion gene-positive non-small cell lung cancer (Cancer Discov, 3(6), Jun 2013, p.630-5). However, these drugs cannot always be administered at levels sufficient to inhibit RET due to toxicity caused by the inhibition of targets other than RET. In addition, one of the greatest challenges in treating cancer is the ability of tumor cells to develop resistance to treatment. Reactivation of kinases via mutation is a common resistance mechanism. When resistance occurs, the treatment options for patients are usually very limited, and in most cases, cancer progression is not inhibited. WO 2017011776 discloses single-target RET kinase inhibitors, which have good preventive or therapeutic effects on cancers related to RET and its mutations. There is still a need to further develop compounds that inhibit RET and its resistant mutants to address cancers associated with RET gene abnormalities. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention provides a novel compound that exhibits rearrangement (RET) kinase inhibition during transfection. This class of compounds has good inhibitory effects on wild-type RET and RET gene mutants, and compared with other kinases, the compounds of the present invention have better inhibitory selectivity for wild-type RET and RET gene mutants.

[0005] The excellent properties of certain parameters of the compounds of the present invention, such as half-life, clearance rate, selectivity, bioavailability, chemical stability, metabolic stability, membrane permeability, solubility, etc., can promote the reduction of side effects, the expansion of the therapeutic index, or the improvement of tolerance, etc.

[0006] On the one hand, the present invention provides a compound represented by formula (I), or a stereoisomer, tautomer, N-oxide, solvate, metabolite, pharmaceutically acceptable salt or prodrug of the compound represented by formula (I),

[0119] Definitions and General Terms

[0120] Certain embodiments of the present invention are now described in detail, with examples illustrated by the accompanying structural and chemical formulas. The present invention is intended to cover all alternatives, modifications and equivalent technical solutions, which are all included within the scope of the present invention as defined in the claims. Those skilled in the art should recognize that many methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used to practice the present invention. The present invention is in no way limited to the methods and materials described herein. In the case where one or more of the incorporated documents, patents and similar materials are different from or contradictory to the present application (including but not limited to the defined terms, term applications, described technologies, etc.), the present application shall prevail.

[0121] It should be further recognized that certain features of the present invention, for clarity, are described in multiple separate embodiments, but can also be provided in combination in a single embodiment. Conversely, various features of the present invention, for brevity, are described in a single embodiment, but can also be provided separately or in any suitable sub-combination.

[0122] Unless otherwise specified, all scientific and technical terms used in the present invention have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains. All patents and published publications referred to in the present invention are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

[0123] The term "patient" as used in the present invention refers to a human (including adults and children) or other animals. In some embodiments, the "patient" refers to a human.

[0124] The term "comprising" is an open-ended expression, that is, it includes the content specified in the present invention, but does not exclude other aspects.

[0125] "Stereoisomers" refer to compounds having the same chemical structure but different arrangements of atoms or groups in space. Stereoisomers include enantiomers, diastereomers, conformational isomers (rotational isomers), geometric isomers (cis / trans isomers), atropisomers, and the like.

[0126] The stereochemical definitions and rules used in this invention generally follow S.P. Parker, Ed., McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Chemical Terms (1984), McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York; and Eliel, E. and Wilen, S., “Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds”, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, 1994.

[0127] Any mixture of the resulting stereoisomers can be separated into pure or substantially pure geometric isomers, enantiomers, diastereomers, for example, by chromatography and / or fractional crystallization, based on differences in the physical and chemical properties of the components.

[0128] The terms “tautomer” or “tautomeric form” refer to structural isomers of different energies that can interconvert through a low energy barrier. If tautomerization is possible (e.g., in solution), a chemical equilibrium of tautomers can be achieved. For example, proton tautomers (also called prototropic tautomers) include interconversions that occur through proton migration, such as keto-enol isomerization and imine-enamine isomerization. Valence tautomers include interconversions that occur through the reorganization of some bonding electrons. A specific example of keto-enol tautomerization is the interconversion of pentane-2,4-dione and 4-hydroxypent-3-en-2-one tautomers. Another example of tautomerization is phenol-keto tautomerization. A specific example of phenol-keto tautomerization is the interconversion of pyridin-4-ol and pyridin-4(1H)-one tautomers. Unless otherwise indicated, all tautomeric forms of the compounds of this invention are within the scope of this invention.

[0129] Unless otherwise indicated, the structural formulas described in this invention include all isomeric forms (e.g., enantiomeric, diastereomeric, and geometric (or conformational) isomers): for example, the R, S configurations containing asymmetric centers, the (Z), (E) isomers of double bonds, and the (Z), (E) conformational isomers. Thus, the individual stereochemical isomers or mixtures of their enantiomers, diastereomers, or geometric isomers (or conformational isomers) of the compounds of this invention are within the scope of this invention.

[0130] Unless otherwise indicated, the structures and the compounds described in this invention include all isomeric forms (such as enantiomers, diastereomers, geometric isomers or conformational isomers), N-oxides, hydrates, solvates, metabolites, pharmaceutically acceptable salts and prodrugs. Accordingly, the individual stereoisomers, enantiomers, diastereomers, geometric isomers, conformational isomers, N-oxides, hydrates, solvates, metabolites, pharmaceutically acceptable salts and prodrugs of the compounds of this invention are also within the scope of this invention. Additionally, unless otherwise indicated, the structures of the compounds described in this invention include one or more enriched isotopes of different atoms.

[0131] As described in this invention, the compounds of this invention may independently and optionally be substituted by one or more substituents, such as in the general formula compounds above, or in the specific examples, subclasses, and classes of compounds included in this invention.

Generally, the term "substituted" means that one or more hydrogen atoms in the given structure are replaced by specific substituents. Unless otherwise indicated, an optional substituent group may be substituted at each substitutable position of the group. When more than one position in the given structure can be substituted by one or more substituents selected from a specific group, the substituents may be the same or different at each position.

[0132] In addition, it should be noted that unless otherwise explicitly stated, in this invention, the description modes "each... independently is", "... each independently is", and "... independently is" can be interchanged and should be understood in a broad sense. It can either mean that among different groups, the specific options expressed between the same symbols do not affect each other, or it can also mean that within the same group, the specific options expressed between the same symbols do not affect each other.

[0134] In each part of this invention, linking substituents are described. When the structure clearly requires a linking group, the Markush variables listed for this group should be understood as linking groups. For example, if the structure requires a linking group and the Markush group definition for this variable lists "alkyl" or "aryl", then it should be understood that the "alkyl" or "aryl" represents a linking alkylene group or arylene group, respectively.
