Abstract
Description
[0001] This invention claims the priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 202210757379.5, filed on June 29, 2022. Technical Field
[0002] This invention belongs to the field of medicine and particularly relates to PRMT5-MTA inhibitors. Background Art
[0003] Protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT) can methylate histones and non-histones to participate in the regulation of biological processes such as gene transcription, signal transduction, protein stability, cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and tumor formation. Currently, 11 PRMT family members have been discovered. According to the different ways of catalyzing arginine methylation, they can be divided into types I, II, and III. Among them, PRMT5 belongs to type II, and its catalytic form is symmetric dimethylation.
[0004] As an epigenetic enzyme, PRMT5 participates in various biological processes, including transcriptional regulation, RNA metabolism, ribosome biosynthesis, and cell cycle regulation. The PRMT5 protein is overexpressed in various cancer types, including B and T cell lymphomas, metastatic melanoma, neuroblastoma, glioblastoma, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, etc. More and more evidence indicates that it plays an important role in tumorigenesis and development. On this basis, PRMT5 inhibitors have become a research hotspot for tumor treatment drugs.
[0005] Early PRMT5 inhibitors can be divided into two categories. One is substrate-competitive inhibitors, with the representative drug being GSK3326595; the other is SAM-competitive inhibitors, with the representative drug being JNJ64619178. Both of these two types of drugs have strong inhibitory activity against PRMT5 and show strong anti-tumor activity. However, due to their strong inhibitory activity against PRMT5 in both normal cells and tumor cells, strong hematotoxicity has been observed, which limits their clinical application and thus affects their clinical treatment effects.
[0006] In 2016, a paper published in Science revealed the synthetic lethality between MTAP deficiency and PRMT5. MTAP has a high deletion rate in a variety of solid tumors, including pancreatic cancer, glioma, etc. MTAP is an intracellular MTA degrading enzyme. Since MTAP deficiency can lead to the intracellular accumulation of MTA, and MTA can compete with the functional substrate methyl donor SAM of PRMT5 for binding to PRMT5, thereby inhibiting the function of PRMT5. Due to the specific accumulation of MTA in MTAP-deficient tumor cells, by strengthening the binding inhibition of MTA and PRMT5, it is possible to specifically inhibit the activity of PRMT5 in tumor cells, while having a weak inhibitory effect on the PRMT5 activity of normal cells, thus providing a therapeutic safety window and reducing toxicity while ensuring anti-tumor efficacy. Currently, MTA cooperative PRMT5 inhibitors have obtained preclinical validation data. The research and development of MTA cooperative PRMT5 inhibitors have great potential in the treatment of MTAP-deficient tumors.
[0007] Currently, despite the progress in PRMT5 research, Mirati Therapeutics reported its PRMT5-MTA inhibitor MRTX1719, but there is still a lack of effective and selective PRMT5-MTA inhibitors. Summary of the Invention

[0198] In a more specific embodiment, the present invention provides a compound, or a tautomer, stereoisomer, prodrug, crystal form, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, hydrate or solvate thereof, wherein the compound is selected from:
[0199]
[0200] The compounds of the present invention may include one or more asymmetric centers and, therefore, may exist in various stereoisomeric forms, for example, enantiomeric and / or diastereomeric forms. For example, the compounds of the present invention may be individual enantiomers, diastereomers or geometric isomers (e.g., cis and trans isomers), or may be in the form of a mixture of stereoisomers, including racemic mixtures and mixtures enriched in one or more stereoisomers. The isomers can be separated from the mixture by methods known to those skilled in the art, including: chiral high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and the formation and crystallization of chiral salts; or the preferred isomers can be prepared by asymmetric synthesis.
[0201] The compounds of the present invention may also exist as tautomers. For compounds that exist in different tautomeric forms, a given compound is not limited to any particular tautomeric form, but is intended to encompass all tautomeric forms.
[0202] Those skilled in the art will understand that organic compounds can form complexes with solvents, which react in the solvent or precipitate or crystallize out from the solvent. These complexes are called "solvates". When the solvent is water, the complex is called a "hydrate". The present invention encompasses all solvates of the compounds of the present invention.
[0203] The term "solvate" refers to a form of a compound or its salt that is combined with a solvent, usually formed by a solvolysis reaction. This physical association may include hydrogen bonding. Conventional solvents include water, methanol, ethanol, acetic acid, DMSO, THF, diethyl ether, etc. The compounds described herein can be prepared, for example, in crystalline form and can be solvated. Suitable solvates include pharmaceutically acceptable solvates and further include stoichiometric solvates and non-stoichiometric solvates. In some cases, the solvate will be capable of being isolated, for example, when one or more solvent molecules are incorporated into the lattice of the crystalline solid. "Solvate" includes solvates in solution state and isolable solvates. Representative solvates include hydrates, ethanolates, and methanolates.
[0204] The term "hydrate" refers to a compound combined with water. Generally, the ratio of the number of water molecules contained in the hydrate of a compound to the number of molecules of that compound in the hydrate is determined. Thus, a hydrate of a compound can be represented, for example, by the general formula R·xH2O, where R is the compound and x is a number greater than 0. A given compound can form more than one type of hydrate, including, for example, monohydrates (x is 1), lower hydrates (x is a number greater than 0 and less than 1, e.g., hemihydrate (R·0.5H2O)), and polyhydrates (x is a number greater than 1, e.g., dihydrate (R·2H2O) and hexahydrate (R·6H2O)).
[0205] The compounds of the present invention can be in amorphous or crystalline form (polymorphs). In addition, the compounds of the present invention can exist in one or more crystalline forms. Thus, the present invention includes within its scope all amorphous or crystalline forms of the compounds of the present invention. The term "polymorph" refers to a crystalline form (or its salt, hydrate, or solvate) of a compound with a specific crystal packing arrangement. All polymorphs have the same elemental composition. Different crystalline forms usually have different X-ray diffraction patterns, infrared spectra, melting points, densities, hardness, crystal shapes, photoelectric properties, stability, and solubility. Recrystallization solvents, crystallization rates, storage temperatures, and other factors can result in one crystalline form being dominant. The various polymorphs of a compound can be prepared by crystallization under different conditions.
[0206] The present invention also includes isotopically labeled compounds (isotope variants) which are equivalent to those described by formula (I), but in which one or more atoms are replaced by atoms having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number commonly found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into the compounds of the present invention include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, fluorine, and chlorine, for example 2 H, 3 H, 13 C, 11 C, 14 C, 15 N, 18 O, 17 O, 31 P, 32 P, 35 S, 18 F and 36 Cl. The compounds of the present invention containing the above isotopes and / or other isotopes of other atoms, their prodrugs, and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts of said compounds or said prodrugs are all within the scope of the present invention. Certain isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention, for example those incorporating radioactive isotopes (e.g. 3 H and 14 C), can be used for drug and / or substrate tissue distribution assays. Tritium, i.e. 3 H and carbon-14, i.e. 14 C isotopes are particularly preferred because they are readily prepared and detected. Furthermore, replacement with heavier isotopes, such as deuterium, i.e. 2 H, can provide therapeutic benefits such as an extended in vivo half-life or a reduced dosage requirement due to higher metabolic stability, and may thus be preferred in some cases. The isotopically labeled compounds of formula (I) of the present invention and their prodrugs can generally be prepared by using readily available isotopically labeled reagents in place of non-isotopically labeled reagents when carrying out the processes and / or the procedures and preparation examples disclosed below.
[0207] In addition, prodrugs are also included within the context of the present invention. As used herein, the term "prodrug" refers to a compound that is converted in vivo, for example, by hydrolysis in the blood, into its active form that has a medical effect. Pharmaceutically acceptable prodrugs are described in T. Higuchi and V. Stella, Prodrugs as Novel Delivery Systems, Vol. 14 of the A.C.S. Symposium Series, Edward B. Roche, ed., Bioreversible Carriers in Drug Design, American Pharmaceutical Association and Pergamon Press, 1987, and D. Fleisher, S. Ramon, and H. Barbra, "Improved oral drug delivery: solubility limitations overcome by the use of prodrugs", Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews (1996) 19(2) 115-130, each incorporated herein by reference.
[0208] Pharmaceutical Compositions and Kits
[0209] In another aspect, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of the present invention (also referred to as the "active ingredient") and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition comprises an effective amount of a compound of the present invention. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition comprises a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the present invention. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition comprises a prophylactically effective amount of a compound of the present invention.
[0210] A pharmaceutically acceptable excipient for use in the present invention refers to a non-toxic carrier, adjuvant, or vehicle that does not destroy the pharmacological activity of the compounds formulated together. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, adjuvants, or vehicles that can be used in the compositions of the present invention include (but are not limited to) ion exchangers, alumina, aluminum stearate, lecithin, serum proteins (such as human serum albumin), buffering substances (such as phosphates), glycine, sorbic acid, potassium sorbate, mixtures of partial glycerides of saturated vegetable fatty acids, water, salts or electrolytes (such as protamine sulfate), disodium hydrogen phosphate, potassium hydrogen phosphate, sodium chloride, zinc salts, silica, magnesium trisilicate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, cellulose-based substances, polyethylene glycol, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, polyacrylates, waxes, polyethylene-polypropylene-block polymers, polyethylene glycol, and lanolin.
[0211] The present invention also includes a kit (e.g., a pharmaceutical package). The provided kit may include a compound of the present invention, other therapeutic agents, and first and second containers (e.g., vials, ampoules, bottles, syringes, and / or dispersible packages or other suitable containers) containing the compound of the present invention and other therapeutic agents. In some embodiments, the provided kit may also optionally include a third container containing a pharmaceutical excipient for diluting or suspending the compound of the present invention and / or other therapeutic agents. In some embodiments, the combination of the compound of the present invention and other therapeutic agents provided in the first and second containers forms a unit dosage form.
[0212] Administration
[0213] The pharmaceutical compositions provided by the present invention can be administered by many routes, including but not limited to: oral administration, parenteral administration, inhalation administration, topical administration, rectal administration, nasal administration, buccal administration, vaginal administration, administration by implant, or other administration methods. For example, parenteral administration as used herein includes subcutaneous administration, intradermal administration, intravenous administration, intramuscular administration, intra-articular administration, intra-arterial administration, intra-synovial cavity administration, intrasternal administration, intrathecal administration, intralesional administration, and intracranial injection or infusion techniques.
[0214] Generally, an effective amount of the compound provided herein is administered. Depending on the circumstances, including the disorder being treated, the route of administration selected, the actual compound administered, the age, weight, and response of the individual patient, the severity of the patient's symptoms, etc., the amount of the compound actually administered can be determined by a physician.
[0215] When used to prevent the disorders described herein, the compound provided herein is administered to a subject at risk of developing the disorder, typically on the advice of a physician and under the physician's supervision, at a dosage level as described above. Subjects at risk of developing a specific disorder generally include those with a family history of the disorder, or those determined to be particularly sensitive to developing the disorder by genetic testing or screening.
[0216] The pharmaceutical compositions provided herein can also be administered over a long period of time (“chronic administration”). Chronic administration refers to the administration of a compound or its pharmaceutical composition over a long period of time, e.g., 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 5 years, etc., or can be administered indefinitely, e.g., for the remainder of the subject's life. In some embodiments, chronic administration is intended to provide a constant level of the compound in the blood over a long period of time, e.g., within a therapeutic window.
[0217] A variety of administration methods can be used to further deliver the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention. For example, in some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition can be administered by bolus injection, for example, to increase the concentration of the compound in the blood to an effective level. The bolus dose depends on the target systemic level of the active ingredient through the body. For example, an intramuscular or subcutaneous bolus dose results in a slow release of the active ingredient, while a bolus directly delivered to a vein (e.g., by IV infusion) enables a more rapid delivery, causing the concentration of the active ingredient in the blood to quickly rise to an effective level. In other embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition can be administered in the form of a continuous infusion, for example, by IV infusion, to provide a steady-state concentration of the active ingredient in the body of the subject. Additionally, in other embodiments, a bolus dose of the pharmaceutical composition can be administered first, followed by a continuous infusion.
[0218] Oral compositions can be in the form of bulk liquid solutions or suspensions or bulk powders. However, more commonly, the compositions are provided in unit dosage form for ease of accurate dosing. The term "unit dosage form" refers to physically discrete units suitable as unit doses for human patients and other mammals, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of the active substance, which is suitable for producing the desired therapeutic effect, in association with a suitable pharmaceutical excipient. Typical unit dosage forms include prefilled, premeasured ampoules or syringes of liquid compositions, or pills, tablets, capsules, etc. in the case of solid compositions. In such compositions, the compound is typically the minor component (from about 0.1 to about 50% by weight, or preferably from about 1 to about 40% by weight), with the remainder being various carriers or excipients and processing aids useful for forming the desired dosage form.
[0219] For oral dosing, a representative regimen is one to five oral doses per day, especially two to four oral doses, typically three oral doses. Using these dosing patterns, each dose provides from about 0.01 to about 20 mg / kg of the compound of the present invention, with preferred doses each providing from about 0.1 to about 10 mg / kg, especially from about 1 to about 5 mg / kg.
[0220] To provide blood levels similar to or lower than those obtained with injection doses, transdermal doses are typically selected in an amount of from about 0.01 to about 20% by weight, preferably from about 0.1 to about 20% by weight, preferably from about 0.1 to about 10% by weight, and more preferably from about 0.5 to about 15% by weight.
[0221] From about 1 to about 120 hours, particularly 24 to 96 hours, the infusion dosage level ranges from about 0.1 mg / kg / hour to at least 10 mg / kg / hour. To achieve a sufficient steady-state level, a loading bolus of about 0.1 mg / kg to about 10 mg / kg or more may also be administered. For a human patient weighing 40 to 80 kg, the maximum total dose should not exceed about 2 g / day.
[0222] Liquid forms suitable for oral administration may include suitable aqueous or non-aqueous carriers, as well as buffering agents, suspending and dispersing agents, coloring agents, flavoring agents, and the like. Solid forms may include, for example, any of the following components, or compounds with similar properties: binders, such as microcrystalline cellulose, tragacanth, or gelatin; excipients, such as starch or lactose; disintegrants, such as alginic acid, Primogel, or corn starch; lubricants, such as magnesium stearate; glidants, such as colloidal silicon dioxide; sweeteners, such as sucrose or saccharin; or flavoring agents, such as peppermint, methyl salicylate, or orange flavoring.
[0223] Injectable compositions are typically based on injectable sterile saline or phosphate-buffered saline, or other injectable excipients known in the art. As previously mentioned, in such compositions, the active compound is typically the minor component, often about 0.05 to 10% by weight, with the remainder being injectable excipients and the like.
[0224] Transdermal compositions are typically formulated as topical ointments or creams containing the active component. When formulated as an ointment, the active component is typically combined with paraffin or a water-miscible ointment base. Alternatively, the active component may be formulated as a cream with, for example, an oil-in-water cream base. Such transdermal preparations are well known in the art and typically include other components for enhancing the steady skin penetration of the active component or the preparation. All such known transdermal preparations and components are included within the scope provided by the present invention.
[0225] The compounds of the present invention may also be administered by transdermal devices. Thus, transdermal administration may be achieved using patches of the reservoir or porous membrane type, or various solid matrices.
[0226] The above components of the compositions for oral, injectable, or topical administration are merely representative. Other materials, as well as processing techniques, etc., are described in Part 8 of Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 17th edition, 1985, Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pennsylvania, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
[0227] The compounds of the present invention can also be administered in a sustained release form or from a sustained release delivery system. Descriptions of representative sustained release materials can be found in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences.
[0228] The present invention also relates to pharmaceutically acceptable formulations of the compounds of the present invention. In one embodiment, the formulation comprises water. In another embodiment, the formulation comprises a cyclodextrin derivative. The most common cyclodextrins are α-, β- and γ-cyclodextrins, which are composed of 6, 7 and 8 α-1,4-linked glucose units, respectively, and optionally include one or more substituents on the linked sugar moieties, including but not limited to: methylated, hydroxyalkylated, acylated and sulfonated alkyl ether substitutions. In some embodiments, the cyclodextrin is sulfonated alkyl ether β-cyclodextrin, for example, sulfobutyl ether β-cyclodextrin, also known as Captisol. See, e.g., U.S. 5,376,645. In some embodiments, the formulation comprises hexapropyl-β-cyclodextrin (e.g., in water, 10-50%).
