Description

[0001] This invention relates to novel inhibitors of transglutaminase, particularly transglutaminase 2, methods for their synthesis, and their use in the prevention and treatment of diseases associated with transglutaminase, particularly transglutaminase 2. Background of the Invention

[0003] Transglutaminases are part of the class of transferases and, according to EC nomenclature, are appropriately named “protein-glutamine:amine γ-glutamyltransferases” (EC 2.3.2.13). They link the ε-amino group of the amino acid lysine to the γ-glutamyl group of the amino acid glutamine, forming an isopeptide bond and releasing ammonia in the process. In the absence of a suitable amine and / or under certain conditions, deamidation of glutamine can occur, resulting in the production of the corresponding glutamate.

[0004] In addition, transglutaminase plays an important role in many therapeutic areas such as cardiovascular diseases (thrombosis and atherosclerosis), autoimmune diseases (celiac diarrhea, Duhring-Brocq disease, glutamate ataxia), neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease), skin diseases (ichthyosis, psoriasis, acne), and wound healing and inflammatory diseases (e.g., tissue fibrosis) (JMWodzinska, Mini-Reviews in Medical Chemistry, 2005, 5, 279-292).

[0005] However, celiac disease with diarrhea, gluten intolerance, is one of the most important indications. Celiac disease with diarrhea is characterized by chronic inflammation of the small intestinal mucosa. In susceptible patients, the intestinal epithelium is subsequently damaged after ingestion of gluten-containing foods, leading to reduced nutrient absorption, which again has a significant impact on affected patients and is associated with symptoms such as weight loss, anemia, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and fatigue. Due to these findings, there is a significant need for the development of drugs to treat celiac disease with diarrhea and other conditions related to tissue transglutaminase (transglutaminase 2, TG2, tTG). Tissue transglutaminase is a central element during the course of the disease. The endogenous enzyme catalyzes the deamidation of gluten / prolamins in the small intestinal mucosa, thereby triggering an inflammatory response. Therefore, inhibitors of tissue transglutaminase are suitable as active agents for drugs.

[0006] Another very important group of indications for tissue transglutaminase inhibitors is fibrotic disorders. Fibrotic disorders are characterized by the accumulation of cross-linked extracellular matrix proteins. Diabetic nephropathy, cystic fibrosis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, renal fibrosis, and liver fibrosis are among the most important fibrotic disorders that the disclosed compounds aim to address.

[0007] US 9,434,763 B2 discloses pyridone derivatives as irreversible glutaminase inhibitors, having a warhead comprising at least one receptor-substituted double bond, such as the Michael system. Alkylacetamido and arylacetamidopyridones exhibit inhibitory activity (IC50) against tissue transglutaminase TG2 in the nanomolar range. 50 ).

[0008] Tse et al. (J.Med.Chem.2020,63,11585-11601) reported on the substitution of phenyl residues in antimalarial triazolopyrazine compounds with non-classical bioisosteres such as cubane and bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane (BCP) to alter the solubility and metabolic stability of the compounds. The authors further evaluated the in vitro antimalarial activity of bioisostere-modified triazolopyrazines against the 3D7 strain of *Plasmodium falciparum*. Substitution of the phenyl residue with a bioisostere-saturated heterocyclic residue resulted in complete loss of activity. Adamantyl residues and other hydrocarbon cage-like derivatives resulted in potency up to 2-9 times lower than the corresponding phenyltriazolopyrazine compounds. In contrast, higher potency was obtained by substituting the phenyl residue with closed-form -1,2-(closo-1,2-) and 1,7-carborane isomers. The authors conclude that the effects of nonclassical bioisosteric substitutions on biological properties cannot be accurately predicted, and a considerable range of possible bioisosteres must first be tested to identify suitable substitutions that result in the desired properties of a given molecule.

[0009] Subbaiah et al. (J.Med.Chem.2021,64,19,14046-14128) reported on bioelectroisosterry of phenyl rings in dominant optimization and drug design. Notably, substitution of the phenyl ring with heterocyclic and carbocyclic moieties for bioelectroisosterry can lead to enhanced potency, solubility, and metabolic stability, while reducing lipophilicity, plasma protein binding, phospholipid disease potential, and inhibition of cytochrome P450 enzymes and hERG channels. However, this effect is strongly dependent on the characteristics of the compound itself and the addressing target.

[0010] US11,072,634B2 discloses a reversible glutaminase inhibitor comprising, as a warhead, an aldehyde, ketone, α-ketoaldehyde, α-ketoketone, α-ketoamino acid, α-keto ester, α-ketoamide, or halogenated methyl ketone. The inhibitor exhibits inhibitory activity (IC50) against tissue transglutaminase TG2 in the nanomolar and micromolar ranges. 50 ).

[0011] The object of this invention is to provide novel, most likely reversible inhibitors of transglutaminase, particularly transglutaminase 2, methods for synthesizing said inhibitors, and several uses of these inhibitors.

[0012] The stated objective is achieved by the technical teachings of the independent claims. Further advantageous embodiments, aspects, and details of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims, the description, and the examples.

[0013] Surprisingly, reversible inhibitors with chemical warheads as disclosed herein have been found to effectively inhibit transglutaminases, including tissue transglutaminases known as transglutaminase 2 or TG2. These terms are used synonymously herein.

[0014] Preferably, this chemical warhead portion is particularly selected from reversible warheads, such as α-ketoamides. The compounds of the present invention are used as selective inhibitors of transglutaminase 2.

[0015] To demonstrate the inventive step of the compounds in this application, the reference compounds will be synthesized and tested against the most similar compounds compared to those in this application. Those skilled in the art may notice compound A8 from our patent US 9,434,763B2, which we introduce as Ref. 3 to highlight the inventive step and preferred features of the claimed compounds. It is evident from US 9,434,763B2 that the aromatic moiety (C-terminus) limits the potency of these compounds (compared to A1, A8, A37, A44, A47). In stark contrast, the branched alkyl moiety is highly preferred, as indicated by the more potent compounds (A28, A29, A59, A61, A63, A67, A68, A79).

[0016] To illustrate the advantage of the branched alkyl moiety over the aromatic moiety, we refer to reference compounds Ref. 2 (ZED1227, US 9,434,763 B2) and Ref. 3 (A8, ZED1047). As described in [Büchold, C.; Hils, M.; Gerlach, U.; Weber, J.; Pelzer, C.; Heil, A.; Aeschlimann, D.; Pasternack, R. Features of ZED1227: The First-In-Class Tissue Transglutaminase Inhibitor Undergoing Clinical Evaluation for the Treatment of Celiac Disease. Cells 2022, 11, 1667. https: / / doi.org / 10.3390 / cells11101667], inhibition data were determined using a classic fluorescent transamidit assay (danstanyl cadaverine incorporated into methylated casein, DCC-assay). Casein is one of the most well-known high-molecular-weight (24 kDa) protein substrates for transglutaminase. Note the IC50 data in Ref. 3 (A8) of US 9,434,763 B2. 50 The values ​​cannot be compared with the data of this invention, as this relies on the fluorescent isopeptidase assay. Ref. 2 (IC) was measured in the DCC assay. 50 =53nM) compared to Ref.3 (IC 50 =4,268nM) has more than 80 times the efficacy.

[0017] Therefore, those skilled in medicinal chemistry will choose branched alkyl moieties as lead structures, excluding aromatic moieties such as phenyl. It is well known that bridged cycloalkyl groups are non-classical bioisosteres of phenyl. By replacing the phenyl group in A8 with, for example, an adamantyl group, those skilled in the art will expect similar physicochemical or biochemical properties without much effort. Since aromatic moieties are clearly not preferred, bridged cycloalkyl groups will not be considered an improvement to the compound.

[0018] This is further supported by other reference compounds. ZED3641 (Ref. 1, as disclosed in US 11,072,634B2; Ref. 2, a reversible α-ketomethylamide analog of ZED1227) has approximately 15 times more potency than Ref. 4 (compare Table 1). Ref. 4 is similar to compound A8 with the skeleton disclosed in US 9,434,763B2, further demonstrating the superiority of the branched alkyl moiety over aromatic derivatives combined with reversible warheads.

[0019] However, surprisingly, replacing the preferred branched alkyl moiety with a bridged cycloalkyl group further significantly improves the potency of the compound, as shown in Table 1. Therefore, we consider the bridged cycloalkyl group to be disclosed in an excellent inventive manner.

[0020] In summary, the compounds of the present invention, rated "A", exhibit approximately 30 times higher efficacy compared to Ref. 3 (A8, compared to Table 1).

[0021] Furthermore, compounds with an activity rating of "B" or "C" are still preferred (lower IC50 values). 50 These compounds can also be considered creative because the peripheral ligands influence the physicochemical or biochemical properties. Therefore, depending on the application, compounds with lower potency may also have high value.

[0049] The inventors have discovered that the bridging bicyclic residue R disclosed herein... 3 The reversible inhibitor of formula (I) exhibits increased potency compared to compounds of the prior art. In particular, this paper demonstrates that, with the aromatic moiety R… 3Compared to known compounds that do not bridge bicyclic residues, the compounds of the present invention exhibit enhanced inhibitory activity. To demonstrate the inventiveness of the compounds of this application, known compounds from US 9,434,763 B2 and US 11,072,634 B2 (Reference 1 (E16 of US 11,072,634 B2), Reference 3 (A8 of US 9,434,763 B2), and Reference 4) were synthesized and tested as reference compounds compared to the most similar compounds of this application. To this extent, as described by Büchold et al. [Büchold, C.; Hils, M.; Gerlach, U.; Weber, J.; Pelzer, C.; Heil, A.; Aeschlimann, D.; Pasternack, R. Features of ZED1227: The First-In-Class Tissue Transglutaminase Inhibitor Undergoing Clinical Evaluation for the Treatment of Celiac Disease. Cells 2022, 11, 1667. https: / / doi.org / 10.3390 / cells11101667], inhibition data were determined using a classic fluorescent transaminasing assay (dansyl cadaverine incorporated into methylated casein, DCC-assay). Casein is one of the most well-known high molecular weight (24 kDa) protein substrates for transglutaminase. The inhibition data of the compounds of the present invention were compared with those of compounds disclosed in US 9,434,763 B2 (referred to herein as reference 3), particularly compound A8. It is noteworthy that the IC50 data of compound A8 in US 9,434,763 B2 and E16 from US 11,072,634 B2 are significantly different. 50 The values ​​cannot be compared with the data of this invention and depend on the fluorescence isopeptidase assay.

[0050] Therefore, the compound of formula (I) of the present invention, rated "A", exhibits approximately 100 times higher efficacy compared to Ref. 3 (A8). The same argument applies to Ref. 4. Ref. 4 also shows that the aromatic moiety of this reference compound strongly reduces inhibitory activity against TG2.

[0051] Therefore, those skilled in the art would exclude aromatic moieties, such as phenyl. It is well known that bridged cycloalkyl groups are non-classical bioisosteres of phenyl. By replacing the phenyl group in A8 with, for example, an adamantyl group, those skilled in the art would expect similar physicochemical or biochemical properties without much effort. Since aromatic moieties are clearly not preferred, bridged cycloalkyl groups would not be considered an improvement to the compound.

[0052] Surprisingly, the compounds of this invention demonstrate that bridging cycloalkyl groups enhance the potency of the compounds by several orders of magnitude compared to aromatic reference compounds. Therefore, we consider bridging cycloalkyl groups to be disclosed in an excellent inventive manner.

[0343] This also includes additional formulations in solid form that will be converted into a fluid form for oral or parenteral administration shortly before use. Such fluid forms include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions.

[0344] Furthermore, the compounds of the present invention can be administered via transdermal application. The transdermal compositions can be in the form of creams, lotions, aerosols, and / or emulsions.

[0345] The term "capsule" refers to a special container or shell made of methylcellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, or modified gelatin or starch, into which active agents can be encapsulated. Typically, hard-shell capsules are prepared from a mixture of bone and porcine skin gelatin, which has relatively high gel strength. The capsule itself may contain small amounts of colorants, opacifiers, softeners, and preservatives.

[0346] Tablets refer to a compressed or cast solid dosage form containing an active ingredient and a suitable extender. Tablets can be produced by compressing mixtures or granules obtained through wet granulation, dry granulation, or compaction, as is known to those skilled in the art.

[0347] Oral gels refer to active components dispersed or dissolved in a hydrophilic semi-solid matrix.

[0348] Powders used in compositions refer to powder mixtures containing active ingredients and suitable extenders that can be suspended in water or juice.

[0349] Suitable extenders are substances that typically form the largest portion of a composition or dosage form. Suitable extenders include sugars such as lactose, sucrose, mannitol, and sorbitol; starches derived from wheat, corn, rice, and potatoes; and celluloses such as microcrystalline cellulose. The amount of extender in the composition can range from about 5% to about 95% by weight of the total composition, preferably from about 25% to about 75% by weight, and more preferably from about 30% to about 60% by weight.

[0350] The term disintegrant refers to a material added to a composition to support the disintegration and release of a pharmaceutical substance. Suitable disintegrants include starch, water-soluble modified starch such as sodium carboxymethyl starch; natural and synthetic gums such as locust bean gum, caraya, guar gum, astragalus gum, and agar; cellulose derivatives such as methylcellulose and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose and cross-linked microcrystalline cellulose such as sodium cross-linked carboxymethyl cellulose; alginates such as alginic acid and sodium alginate; and clays such as bentonite and foaming mixtures. The amount of disintegrant used in the composition can range from about 2% to 20% by weight of the composition, and more preferably from about 5% to about 10% by weight.

[0351] Binders characterize substances that bind or “adhere” powders together, and thus they are used as “glue” in formulations. Binder additions have been used in the addition of intracellular starches as expanders or disintegrants. Suitable binders include sugars such as sucrose; starches derived from wheat, corn, rice, and potatoes; natural gums such as gum arabic, gelatin, and astragalus gum; seaweed derivatives such as alginate, sodium alginate, and calcium ammonium alginate; cellulosic materials such as methylcellulose and sodium carboxymethylcellulose, as well as hydroxypropyl methylcellulose; polyvinylpyrrolidone; and inorganic compounds such as magnesium aluminum silicate. The amount of binder in the composition can range from about 2% to about 20% by weight of the total composition, preferably from about 3% to about 10% by weight, and more preferably from about 3% to about 6% by weight.

[0352] The term lubricant refers to a substance added to a dosage form to allow tablets, granules, etc., to be released from a casting or compression mold after compression by reducing friction. Suitable lubricants include metal stearates, such as magnesium stearate, calcium stearate, or potassium stearate; stearic acid; waxes with high melting points; and water-soluble lubricants, such as sodium chloride, sodium benzoate, sodium acetate, sodium oleate, polyethylene glycol, and D,L-leucine. Because lubricants must be present on the surface of the granules and between the granules and the parts of the tableting machine, they are typically added during the final step before compression. The amount of lubricant in the composition can range from about 0.2% to about 5% by weight of the total composition, preferably about 0.5% to about 2% by weight, and more preferably about 0.3% to about 1.5% by weight.

[0353] Lubricants are materials that prevent agglomeration and improve the flow properties of particles, resulting in smooth and uniform flow. Suitable lubricants include silica and talc. The amount of lubricant in the composition can range from about 0.1% to 5% by weight of the total composition, preferably from about 0.5% to about 2% by weight.

[0354] Colorants are auxiliary agents used to color a composition or dosage form. Such auxiliary agents may include food-grade colorants that are adsorbed onto a suitable adsorption medium, such as clay or alumina. The amount of colorant used can vary from about 0.1% to 5% by weight of the composition, and preferably from about 0.1% to about 1% by weight.

[0355] As used herein, a “pharmaceutically effective amount” of a transglutaminase inhibitor is an effective amount or activity for achieving the desired physiological outcome in cells treated in vitro or in a patient treated in vivo. Specifically, a pharmaceutically effective amount is an amount sufficient to inhibit one or more clinically defined pathological processes associated with transglutaminase 2 for a sustained period of time. The effective amount can vary depending on the specific compound of formula (I) and additionally depends on multiple factors and conditions associated with the subject being treated and the severity of the disease. For example, if the inhibitor is to be administered in vivo, factors such as the patient’s age, weight, and health status, as well as dose-response curves and data on toxicity obtained from preclinical animal studies, will be considered. If an inhibitor in the form of a compound of formula (I) described herein is brought into contact with cells in vivo, multiple preclinical in vitro studies will be designed to determine parameters such as absorption, half-life, dose, toxicity, etc. Determining a pharmaceutically effective amount of a given pharmaceutically active ingredient is part of the ordinary skill of those skilled in the art.

[1031] To determine the efficacy of the inhibitor against tissue transglutaminase, the incorporation of dansylcadaverine into dimethylcasein was measured using recombinant human transglutaminase 2 (Zedira product T022) (Zedira product T036, Lorand et al., Anal Biochem, 1971, 44:221-31).

[1032] Tissue transglutaminase was diluted in buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 7.5 mM CaCl2, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.4). The final concentration of TG2 in the assay was 10 nM.

[1033] A 10 mM inhibitor stock solution was prepared in DMSO, and a series of 1:2 dilutions were then prepared in DMSO. Each initial dilution was then diluted 1:50 with buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 7.5 mM CaCl2, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.4) to obtain a final working dilution containing 2% (v / v) DMSO.

[1034] Add 15 μl of inhibitor working dilution to each well of a 96-well microtiter plate. As a control, add 15 μl of 2% (v / v) DMSO solution prepared using the buffer mentioned above to each well.

[1035] Shortly before starting the assay, 600 μl of transglutaminase working solution was added to 11.4 mL of assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 10 mM CaCl2, 10 mM glutathione, 2.5% glycerol, 16.7 μM tansyl cadaverine, 4 μM N,N-dimethylcasein, 200 mM NaCl, pH 8.0). 285 μl of this reaction mixture was then added to each well containing the inhibitor.

[1036] Using λ at 37℃ ex =330nm and λ em The increase in fluorescence was measured at 500 nm over 30 minutes. The slope of the fluorescence increase between 20 and 30 minutes was calculated to determine the IC50. 50 Value (inhibitor concentration at which 50% of the initial activity is blocked).

[1037] Enzyme activity was analyzed by calculating the slope of the increase in fluorescence intensity. IC50 50 The values ​​were calculated by plotting enzyme activity against inhibitor concentration (as a percentage relative to a control containing 2% DMSO, rather than the inhibitor). IC50 was calculated. 50 The inhibitor concentration is defined as the concentration that blocks 50% of the initial enzyme activity.

[1038] The compounds of this invention exhibit inhibitory activity against tissue transglutaminase (TG2) using IC50 assay. 50 The values ​​are shown in Table 1 below.
