Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to CD73 inhibitors, and more particularly to the use of a class of pyrazolopyrimidine compounds in the preparation of CD73 inhibitors, especially in the preparation of medicaments for the treatment and / or prevention of CD73-related diseases, disorders and conditions, particularly cancer and immune disorders. Background Technology
[0002] Tumor immune escape refers to the process by which tumor cells evade the surveillance and elimination of the immune system through their own or non-self means. The realization of tumor immune escape is related to changes in the tumor cell's own cellular epitopes and alterations in the tumor immune microenvironment. Tumor-related changes refer to antigen blockade, hypoxic metabolism, or epithelial-mesenchymal transition caused by gene mutations, making them more difficult for the body's immune system to recognize. The tumor's influence on the microenvironment stems from the interaction between tumor cells and surrounding normal tissues or immune factors, creating an immunosuppressive environment. In this context, regulatory T cells (Tregs) significantly inhibit the killing effect of effector T cells on tumor cells. Due to the limitations of current tumor immunotherapy drugs, the mechanism of immune escape is increasingly attracting the attention of researchers. Based on the above information, there is a need to develop tumor immunotherapy drugs with novel mechanisms and to develop combination therapies that simultaneously inhibit multiple immunosuppressive pathways to improve clinical response and better meet patient needs.
[0003] CD73 is an extracellular nucleotidase. Highly expressed CD73 in tumors can hydrolyze adenosine monophosphate (AMP) to produce adenosine (ADO), significantly altering the tumor microenvironment. CD73 also acts as an adhesion signaling molecule on the cell surface (MINOR M, ALCEDO KP, BATTAGLIA RA, et al. Cell type-and tissue-specific functions of ecto-5'-nucleotidase (CD73)[J]. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol, 2019, 317(6):C1079-C1092.). Extracellular adenosine production is one of the most important immunosuppressive regulatory pathways in the tumor microenvironment, primarily generated through a cascade hydrolysis of CD39 (belonging to NTPdases) and CD73. As the main enzyme producing extracellular adenosine, CD73 becomes an important regulator in various tissue mechanisms of cellular homeostasis, stress, injury, and inflammation. ATP is released from stressed or dying cells, representing a "dangerous" inflammatory signal. Release ceases when this molecule is rapidly converted into the anti-inflammatory signaling molecule adenosine, thus preventing severe inflammatory responses that could harm the body. In the hypoxic tumor microenvironment, high levels of extracellular ATP accumulate. CD39 (exonucleoside triphosphate diphosphate hydrolase 1, NTPDase 1, or EC 3.6.1.5) and CD73 can continuously hydrolyze it into ADP, AMP, and adenosine (ADO), altering the microenvironment and upregulating adenosine concentration. Adenosine receptor A2AR (belonging to the P1 receptor) is widely distributed in human tissues. After binding to adenosine, the receptor enhances Treg cell proliferation, increases its immunosuppressive capacity, inhibits T cell proliferation and NK cell activation and function, and promotes macrophage M2 differentiation (LAPPAS CM, RIEGER JM, LINDEN J. A2A Adenosine Receptor Induction Inhibits IFN-γ Production in Murine CD4). +T Cells[J].The Journal of Immunology,2005,174(2):1073-1080.). A2BR signal transduction can promote the proliferation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), and CD73 on MDSCs can also suppress T cells and NK cells. During tumor development, the hypoxic and inflammatory environment in the tumor microenvironment is maintained, and tumor cells continuously enhance immunosuppression by increasing the expression of related genes (such as NT5E, the gene encoding CD73). The significant upregulation of CD73 on the surface of tumor tissue cells is one of the important reasons for tumor immune escape (NEO SY, YANG Y, RECORD J, et al. CD73 immune checkpoint defines regulatory NK cells within the tumor microenvironment[J].J Clin Invest,2020,130(3):1185-1198.). Therefore, inhibiting CD39 and CD73 will effectively block adenosine-mediated immunosuppression.
[0004] CD73, encoded by the NT5E gene, is widely expressed in normal human tissues such as lymphocytes and endothelial cells. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) shows that NT5E is highly upregulated in most solid cancer cells compared to normal cells, especially on the surface of Treg cells (YANG H, YAO F, DAVIS PF, et al. CD73, Tumor Plasticity and Immune Evasion in Solid Cancers[J]. Cancers (Basel), 2021, 13(2).). NT5E expression is most abundant in thyroid cancer, sarcoma, and acute myeloid leukemia, and is also high in breast cancer and bladder tumors. Evidence suggests that high CD73 expression is positively correlated with breast cancer cell density, and its enhanced activity may lead to adenosine accumulation, thereby enhancing purine signaling pathway activation (Zhou Tingting, Zhou Ping, Yin Lianhua. Effects of CD73 on the invasiveness and motility of human breast cancer cells[J]. Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology, 2006, 22(2): 360-364.). This evidence suggests that CD73 should be prioritized as a potential target in these solid tumor cancers.
[0005] Furthermore, increasing evidence suggests that CD73 is associated with tumor cell metastasis. Stagg et al. found that CD73 is a driving factor for tumor metastasis in a mouse model of breast cancer (STAGG J, DIVISEKERA U, MCLAUGHLINN, et al. Anti-CD73 antibody therapy inhibits breast tumor growth and metastasis[J]. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 2010, 107(4):1547-1552.). This process is still mainly mediated by adenosine as a signaling molecule, exerting an immunosuppressive effect on lymphocytes while also enhancing the migration ability of tumor cells. Experimental settings have confirmed that targeting CD73 can also effectively prevent gastric cancer metastasis (XU Z, GU C, YAO X, et al. CD73 promotes tumor metastasis by modulating RICS / RhoA signaling and EMT in gastric cancer[J]. Cell Death Dis, 2020, 11(3):202.).
[0006] Tu and colleagues demonstrated through experiments that, compared to anti-PD-L1 or anti-CD73 therapy alone, combination therapy with anti-PD-L1 and anti-CD73 can promote the T cell immune response to EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and significantly shrink tumors (TU E, MCGLINCHEY K, LAZDUN Y, et al. Abstract 911: Anti-PD-L1 and anti-CD73 combination therapy promotes T cell response to EGFR mutant NSCLC[J]. Cancer Research, 2020, 80(16_Supplement):911-911.). Compared with isotype controls, combination therapy increased MART1 (Melanoma antigen recognized by T-cells 1)-specific CD8+ in tumors. + The number of T cells also affects the CD8 count in the spleen. + T cells CD62L + / CD45RO + / CCR7 + The incidence of this phenotype has increased. Their findings could provide a theoretical basis for CD73 combination therapy.
[0007] Therefore, as a highly promising cancer therapeutic target in recent years, CD73 inhibitors have the potential to be used in combination with other tumor immunotherapy drugs or chemotherapy drugs to form a synergistic treatment strategy. Although several monoclonal antibody CD73 drugs are already in clinical trials, CD73 small molecule inhibitors still have important research value due to their unique physicochemical properties, metabolic distribution characteristics, and non-immunogenicity.

[0071] As used in this article, "Boc" stands for tert-butyloxycarbonyl.
[0072] As used herein, the term "oxo" refers to an oxygen atom being bonded to another atom via a double bond, and can be represented as "=O". The terms "-C(=O)" represent a carbonyl group, "-S(=O)" represent a sulfoxide group, and "-S(=O)2" represent a sulfone group.
[0073] As used in this article, "hydroxyalkyl" refers to an alkyl group substituted with a hydroxyl group.
[0074] As used herein, the terms "optional," "optional," or "optionally" mean that the events described below may or may not occur, and the description includes both cases where the events occur and cases where they do not occur. For example, "optionally substituted alkyl" includes both "unsubstituted alkyl" and "substituted alkyl" as defined herein. "Optionally halogenated" includes both cases where the alkyl is substituted with a halogen and cases where it is not substituted with a halogen, such as substitution with 0-3 halogens. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that, for any group containing one or more substituents, the group does not include any substitution pattern that is spatially impractical, chemically incorrect, synthetically infeasible, and / or inherently unstable.
[0075] As used herein, the terms “substituted,” “substituted,” or “replaced by” mean that one or more hydrogen atoms on a given atom or group are replaced by one or more substituents selected from the given group of substituents, provided that the substitution does not exceed the normal valence of the given atom. When the substituent is oxo (i.e., =O), the two hydrogen atoms on a single atom are replaced by oxygen. Oxo-substituents are not present on aromatic moieties. When a ring system (e.g., a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring) is substituted by a carbonyl group or double bond, it is intended that the carbonyl group or double bond is part of the ring (i.e., within the ring). Such combinations are permitted only if the combination of substituents and / or variables results in a chemically correct and stable compound. A chemically correct and stable compound means that the compound is stable enough to be isolated from the reaction mixture and its chemical structure can be determined, and it can subsequently be formulated into an agent with at least practical utility. For example, where no substituent is explicitly listed, the terms “substituted,” “substituted by,” or “replaced by” as used herein mean that one or more hydrogen atoms on a given atom or group are independently replaced by one or more, for example, 1, 2, 3, or 4 substituents. When an atom or group is replaced by multiple substituents, the substituents may be the same or different.
[0076] Unless otherwise specified, the term "compound of the present invention" or "compound of the present invention" refers to one or more compounds of formula (I) or its subforms as defined herein, such as formulas (I-1), (I-2), etc., or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and all isomers such as stereoisomers (including diastereomers, enantiomers, and racemates), geometric isomers, conformational isomers (including rotational isomers and rotation-blocked isomers), tautomers, internal addition products of isomers, prodrugs, and isotopically labeled compounds (including deuterium-substituted compounds) and inherently formed moieties (e.g., polymorphs, solvates, and / or hydrates). Salts, particularly pharmaceutically acceptable salts, are also included where salt-forming moieties are present. The presence of tautomers or internal addition products of isomers can be identified by those skilled in the art using tools such as NMR. Compounds of formula (I) of the present invention are capable of readily forming internal addition products of tautomers and isomers as described herein.
[0077] Those skilled in the art will recognize that the compounds of the present invention may contain a chiral center, thereby allowing for different isomeric forms. As used herein, "isomer" refers to different compounds having the same molecular formula but differing in the arrangement and configuration of their atoms.
[0078] As used herein, an enantiomer is a pair of stereoisomers that are non-overlapping mirror images of each other. A 1:1 mixture of a pair of enantiomers is a "racemic" mixture. Where appropriate, the term is used to refer to racemic mixtures. When indicating the stereochemistry of the compounds of the present invention, a single stereoisomer with known relative and absolute configurations (e.g., (1S,2S)) having two chiral centers is designated using the conventional RS system; a single stereoisomer with a known relative configuration but an unknown absolute configuration is indicated by an asterisk (e.g., (1R*,2R*)); and a racemic mixture with two letters (e.g., (1RS,2RS) is a racemic mixture of (1R,2R) and (1S,2S); (1RS,2SR) is a racemic mixture of (1R,2S) and (1S,2R)). A "diastereomer" is a stereoisomer having at least two asymmetric atoms but not being mirror images of each other. Absolute stereochemistry is indicated according to the Cahn-Lngold-Prelog RS system. When the compound is a pure enantiomer, the stereochemistry at each chiral carbon can be described by R or S. The resolved compounds with unknown absolute configurations can be designated as (+) or (-) based on the direction (dextrorotatory or levorotatory) of their rotational plane-polarized light at the sodium D line wavelength. Alternatively, the resolved compounds can be defined by the respective retention times of the corresponding enantiomers / diastereomers via chiral HPLC.
[0079] Some of the compounds described herein contain one or more asymmetric centers or axes, thus producing enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomers that can be defined by absolute stereochemistry as (R)- or (S)-.
[0080] Geometric isomerism can occur when a compound contains a double bond or other features that give the molecule a certain degree of structural rigidity. If the compound contains a double bond, the substituent can be in the E or Z conformation. If the compound contains a disubstituted cycloalkyl group, the cycloalkyl substituent can have a cis or trans configuration.
[0081] Conformational isomers are isomers that differ by rotation of one or more valence bonds. Rotational isomers are conformational isomers that differ by rotation of only a single valence bond.
[0082] "Restricted rotation isomers" refer to structural isomers that exhibit axial or planar chirality due to rotational restriction within the molecule.
[0083] Unless otherwise stated, the compounds of this invention are intended to include all such possible isomers, including racemic mixtures, optically active forms, and intermediate mixtures. Optically active (R)- and (S)- isomers can be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques.
[0084] The compounds of the present invention can be isolated into optically active or racemic forms. The optically active form can be prepared by resolution of the racemic form or by synthesis from optically active starting materials. All methods used to prepare the compounds of the present invention and the intermediates prepared therein are considered part of the present invention. When preparing enantiomers or diastereomers, they can be separated by conventional methods such as chromatography or stepwise crystallization.
[0085] Depending on the method conditions, the end products of the present invention are obtained in free (neutral) or salt form. Both the free and salt forms of these end products are within the scope of the present invention. If desired, one form of the compound can be converted to another form. Free bases or acids can be converted to salts; salts can be converted to free compounds or other salts; mixtures of isomers of the present invention can be separated into individual isomers.
[0086] As used herein, "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a salt that retains the biological effects and properties of the compounds of the present invention, and that is not biologically or otherwise undesirable. Non-limiting examples of such salts include non-toxic, inorganic or organic addition salts of bases or acids of the compounds of the present invention. In many cases, the compounds of the present invention are capable of forming acid salts and / or base salts due to the presence of amino and / or carboxyl groups or similar groups. Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts can be formed using inorganic and organic acids. Inorganic acids from which salts can be derived include, for example, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, etc. Organic acids from which salts can be derived include, for example, acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid, etc. Pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts can be formed using inorganic and organic bases. Inorganic bases from which salts can be derived include, for example, sodium, potassium, lithium, ammonium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, and aluminum; particularly preferred are ammonium, potassium, sodium, calcium, and magnesium salts. Organic bases from which salts can be derived include, for example, primary, secondary, and tertiary amines, substituted amines (including naturally occurring substituted amines), cyclic amines, basic ion exchange resins, etc., especially, for example, isopropylamine, trimethylamine, diethylamine, triethylamine, tripropylamine, and ethanolamine. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of this invention can be synthesized from the parent compound (basic or acidic moiety) using conventional chemical methods. Generally, the salts described herein can be prepared by reacting the free acidic form of the compound with a stoichiometric amount of an appropriate base (e.g., hydroxides, carbonates, bicarbonates, etc. of Na, Ca, Mg, or K) or by reacting the free basic form of the compound with a stoichiometric amount of an appropriate acid. Such reactions are typically carried out in water or an organic solvent or a mixture of both. Generally, when feasible, non-aqueous media such as ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile are preferred. Other suitable salts can be found in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 20th edition, Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., (1985), which is incorporated herein by reference.
[0087] The arbitrary formulas given herein are also intended to represent the unlabeled form and the isotopically labeled form of the compound. Except that one or more atoms are replaced by atoms having a selected atomic mass or mass number, the isotopically labeled compound has the structure described by the formulas given herein. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into the compounds of the present invention include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, fluorine, and chlorine, for example, respectively. 2 H (i.e., D) 3 H (i.e., T) 11 C13 C 14 C 15 N、 18 F 31 P, 32 P, 35 S, 36 Cl、 125 I.

The isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention can typically be prepared by performing the methods described in the procedures or examples and preparation examples below, using readily available isotopically labeled reagents instead of unlabeled reagents.
[0088] Moreover, it is affected by heavier isotopes, especially deuterium (i.e., 2 Substitution with H or D can also yield certain therapeutic benefits due to greater metabolic stability, such as prolonged in vivo half-life, reduced dose requirements, or improved therapeutic index. It is understood that deuterium in the context can be considered a substituent in the compounds of this invention. The concentration of such heavier isotopes, particularly deuterium, can be defined by isotope enrichment factors.
