Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the invention application with application date of March 22, 2022, application number 202280006669.4, and invention name “HPK1 kinase inhibitor compounds”. Technical Field

[0002] The present invention relates to a heterocyclic compound, in particular to a highly active HPK1 kinase inhibitor and application thereof. Background Art

[0003] HPK1 is a member of the MAP4K family. It is mainly expressed in hematopoietic cells and acts as an intracellular negative regulator of T cell proliferation and signal transduction. Antigen stimulation of T cells causes the cytoplasmic adaptor protein SLP-76 to be recruited to the lipid membrane TCR complex, providing binding sites for signal transduction-related kinases to achieve TCR-mediated signal transduction and induce T cell activation. In this process, HPK1 is activated by phosphorylation of tyrosine kinases Lck and Zap70, and participates in regulating T cell receptor protein interactions. HPK1 phosphorylates the Ser376 site of the adaptor protein SLP-76, allowing SLP-76 to bind to the scaffold protein 14-3-3ε and then be degraded by the proteasome. This effect reduces the binding of SLP-76 to signal transduction-related kinases and blocks TCR signal transduction, thereby inhibiting T cell activation and proliferation. On the other hand, HPK1 is also involved in regulating the maturation and activation of dendritic cells (DCs), especially inhibiting the expression of proteins such as CD80, CD86 and MHC complexes in DC cells that assist T cell activation, thereby affecting the role of DC in regulating T cell activation; and the presentation of tumor antigens by activated DCs and the cooperation between DCs and T cells are one of the most important links in the anti-tumor immune system. In addition, there are a large number of immunosuppressive molecules such as PGE2 and TGF-β in the tumor microenvironment, and the immunosuppressive effects mediated by these factors are also closely related to HPK1. In general, small molecule compounds that specifically target and inhibit HPK1 can improve T cell function, enhance DC cell function, and reverse the tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment at the same time, and enhance anti-tumor immune effects through multiple pathways, thereby achieving the effect of inhibiting tumor growth. However, there is currently a lack of effective inhibitors of HPK1 kinase activity.

[0004] Therefore, there is still an urgent need for effective HPK1 kinase activity inhibitors in the prior art to provide more effective options for anti-tumor treatment. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present invention unexpectedly discovered a compound of formula (I) having the ability to inhibit HPK1 kinase activity and a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, isotope derivative or stereoisomer thereof, having the following structure:

[0006]

[0007] It should be noted in particular that, in this text, when referring to a "compound" with a specific structural formula, it generally also encompasses its stereoisomers, diastereoisomers, enantiomers, racemic mixtures, and isotopic derivatives.

[0008] As is well known to those skilled in the art, a salt, solvate, or hydrate of a compound is an alternative form of existence of the compound, and they can all be converted into the said compound under certain conditions. Therefore, it should be noted in particular that in this text, when referring to a compound, it generally also includes its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and further includes its solvates and hydrates.

[0009] Similarly, in this text, when referring to a compound, it generally also includes its prodrugs, metabolites, and N-oxides.

[0010] The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the present invention can be formed using, for example, the following inorganic or organic acids: "Pharmaceutically acceptable salts" refer to salts that, within the scope of reasonable medical judgment, are suitable for contact with the tissues of humans and lower animals without undue toxicity, irritation, allergic response, etc., and represent a reasonable benefit / risk ratio. The salts can be prepared in situ during the final isolation and purification of the compounds of the present invention or separately by reacting the free base or free acid with a suitable reagent, as outlined below. For example, the free base functionality can be reacted with a suitable acid. In addition, when the compounds of the present invention carry an acidic moiety, suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salts can include metal salts, such as alkali metal salts (e.g., sodium or potassium salts); and alkaline earth metal salts (e.g., calcium or magnesium salts). Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic acid addition salts are salts formed by the reaction of an amino group with an inorganic acid (e.g., hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, and perchloric acid) or an organic acid (e.g., acetic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, succinic acid, or malonic acid), or salts formed by using other methods in the prior art such as ion exchange. Other pharmaceutically acceptable salts include adipates, alginates, ascorbates, aspartates, benzenesulfonates, benzoates, bisulfates, borates, butyrates, camphorates, camphorsulfonates, citrates, cyclopentanepropionates, digluconates, dodecyl sulfates, ethanesulfonates, formates, fumarates, glucoheptanoates, glycerophosphates, glucuronates, hernisulfates, heptanoates, hexanoates, hydroiodides, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonates, lactates, lactobionates, laurates, lauryl sulfates, malates, maleates, malonates, methanesulfonates, 2-naphthalenesulfonates, nicotinates, nitrates, oleates, oxalates, palmitates, pamoates, pectates, persulfates, 3-phenylpropionates, phosphates, picrates, pivalates, propionates, stearates, succinates, sulfates, tartrates, thiocyanates, p-toluenesulfonates, undecanoates, valerates, etc. Representative alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts include salts of sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, etc. Other pharmaceutically acceptable salts include (where appropriate) non-toxic ammonium salts, quaternary ammonium salts, and amine cations formed with counterions, such as halides, hydroxides, carboxylates, sulfates, phosphates, nitrates, lower alkyl sulfonates, and aryl sulfonates.

[0011] The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the present invention can be prepared by conventional methods, for example, by dissolving the compounds of the present invention in a water-miscible organic solvent (e.g., acetone, methanol, ethanol, and acetonitrile), adding an aqueous solution of an excess of an organic or inorganic acid thereto such that the salt precipitates from the resulting mixture, removing the solvent and the remaining free acid therefrom, and then isolating the precipitated salt.

[0012] As used herein, "solvate" means a physical association of a compound of the invention with one or more solvent molecules, whether organic or inorganic. This physical association includes hydrogen bonding. In certain cases, such as when one or more solvent molecules are incorporated into the lattice of a crystalline solid, the solvate will be capable of being isolated. The solvent molecules in the solvate may be present in a regular arrangement and / or a disordered arrangement. Solvates may contain stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amounts of solvent molecules. "Solvate" encompasses both solution-phase and isolable solvates. Exemplary solvates include, but are not limited to, hydrates, ethanolates, methanolates, and isopropanolates. Solvation methods are well known in the art.

[0013] As used herein, "stereoisomerism" is divided into conformational isomerism and configurational isomerism. Configurational isomerism can be further divided into cis-trans isomerism and optical isomerism (i.e., enantiomerism). Conformational isomerism refers to a stereoisomeric phenomenon in which an organic molecule with a certain configuration has different arrangements of its atoms or groups in space due to the rotation or distortion of carbon-carbon single bonds. Common examples are the structures of alkanes and cycloalkanes, such as the chair and boat conformations in the structure of cyclohexane. "Stereoisomers" mean that when the compounds of the invention contain one or more asymmetric centers, they can exist as racemates and racemic mixtures, single enantiomers, diastereomeric mixtures, and single diastereomers. The compounds of the invention have asymmetric centers, and each asymmetric center gives rise to two optical isomers. The scope of the invention includes all possible optical isomers and diastereomeric mixtures and pure or partially pure compounds. The compounds described herein may exist in tautomeric forms, which have different hydrogen attachment points due to the displacement of one or more double bonds. For example, a ketone and its enol form are keto-enol tautomers. All tautomers and their mixtures are included in the compounds of the invention. All enantiomers, diastereomers, racemates, meso forms, cis-trans isomers, tautomers, geometric isomers, epimers, and mixtures thereof of the compounds of formula (I) are included within the scope of the invention.

[0014] As used herein, "isotope derivatives" of the invention mean molecules in which the compounds in this patent are isotopically labeled. Isotopes commonly used for isotope labeling are: hydrogen isotopes, 2 H and 3 H; carbon isotopes: 11 C, 13 C and 14 C; chlorine isotopes: 35 Cl and 37 Cl; fluorine isotope: 18 F; iodine isotopes: 123 I and 125 I; nitrogen isotopes: 13 N and 15 N; oxygen isotopes:15 O, 17 O and 18 O and sulfur isotopes 35 S. These isotope-labeled compounds can be used to study the distribution of pharmaceutical molecules in tissues. In particular, deuterium 3 H and carbon 13 C are more widely used because they are easy to label and convenient to detect. Substitution of certain heavy isotopes, such as deuterium ( 2 H), can enhance metabolic stability, extend the half-life, and thus achieve the goal of reducing the dose and providing therapeutic advantages. Isotope-labeled compounds generally start from labeled starting materials and are synthesized using known synthetic techniques in the same way as non-isotope-labeled compounds.

[0015] The present invention also provides the use of the compounds of the present invention in the preparation of drugs for preventing and / or treating cancer, tumors, inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases or immune-mediated diseases.

[0016] In addition, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for preventing and / or treating cancer, tumors, inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, attention-related diseases or immune-mediated diseases, which comprises the compounds of the present invention as an active ingredient.

[0017] In addition, the present invention provides a method for preventing and / or treating cancer, tumors, inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, attention-related diseases or immune-mediated diseases, which comprises administering the compounds of the present invention to a mammal in need thereof.

[0018] When the compounds of the present invention or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are administered in combination with another anti-cancer agent or immune checkpoint inhibitor for treating cancer or tumors, the compounds of the present invention or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can provide enhanced anti-cancer effects.

[0019] When the compounds of the present invention or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are administered in combination with another therapeutic agent for treating inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases and immune-mediated diseases, the compounds of the present invention or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can provide enhanced therapeutic effects.

The described embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to be limiting thereof. The following examples are prepared, separated and characterized using the methods disclosed in the present invention.

The control group is added with RPMI 1640 medium containing 0.2% DMSO and incubated in a 37 °C cell culture incubator (Thermo Fisher Scientific, model: 3111) for 1 h. Subsequently, Anti-human CD3 Antibody with a final concentration of 0.01 μg / ml and Anti-human CD28 Antibody with a concentration of 1 μg / ml are added and incubated in a 37 °C cell culture incubator for 24 h. The content of IL-2 in the cell supernatant is detected using the Human IL-2 DuoSet ELISA KIT, and the detection is carried out according to the operation instructions of the kit. The data are described by the highest multiple ratio of the stimulation signal of the compound to the signal of 0.1% DMSO. The cells are collected and the Luminescent CellViability Assay kit is used to detect cell viability, and the cell viability data are described by the half-maximal inhibitory concentration IC50 of the compound.
