Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a novel class of bifunctional molecules that are useful in the targeted or selective degradation of proteins. Background Art

[0002] Targeted protein degradation (TPD) is a treatment model that relies on the use of synthetic molecules to change the intracellular protein degradation mechanism to induce the degradation of specific pathogenic proteins. Compared with other drug models (e.g., small molecule inhibitors, reagents based on antibodies and proteins, antisense oligonucleotides and related knock-down methods), the TPD method provides some advantages, including: enhanced pharmacology due to catalytic removal of proteins from the cell; the ability to inhibit the multiple functions of specific drug targets, including (e.g.) the backbone function of knocking down by the target; systemic administration opportunities with good biodistribution; effective in vivo efficacy limited only by de novo protein resynthesis due to catalytic efficacy and extended duration of action; and easy chemical synthesis and formulation using small molecule methods.

[0003] Most physiological post-translational regulation of intracellular protein levels and the removal of damaged, misfolded or excess proteins are mediated by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS). The UPS relies on a complex cascade of protein-protein interactions that enables the polypeptide ubiquitin to be covalently attached to the protein to be removed. The ubiquitin on the protein then acts as a marker or tag for the proteasome, which then degrades and removes the protein from the cell.

[0004] The UPS can be repurposed to degrade specific proteins using bifunctional chemical molecules (often called bifunctional degraders) as therapeutic agents. These molecules work by inducing the proximity of desired substrates to UPS proteins, triggering a cascade of events that ultimately leads to degradation and removal of the protein from the cell by the proteasome.

[0005] Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) constitute a class of bifunctional degraders that induce the accessibility of target proteins to the UPS by recruiting specific ubiquitin E3 ligases. PROTACs consist of two ligands connected by a linker—one ligand binds to the desired target protein and the other ligand recruits the ubiquitin E3 ligase.

[0006] The most commonly used ubiquitin E3 ligases in PROTACs are von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) and Cereblon (CRBN). PROTACs that recruit VHL are typically based on ligands containing hydroxyproline, while PROTACs that recruit CRBN are typically characterized by the presence of a glutarimide moiety, such as thalidomide, pomalidomide, and lenalidomide, or similar analogs, to act as a warhead. Other ligases, including the mdm2 and IAP families, have also shown utility in PROTAC design.

[0007] However, these approaches are subject to a series of limitations that restrict their utility for treating a wide range of diseases. For example, limitations of the current PROTAC approach include: inability to efficiently degrade some targets; poor PROTAC activity in a variety of specific cells due to low and variable expression of E3 ligases and other proteins required for efficient degradation; chemical properties that make it more difficult to prepare degraders with suitable drug-like properties (including good drug metabolism and pharmacokinetic profiles); and high sensitivity to inducing resistance mechanisms in tumors.

[0008] Due to these limitations, there remains a need to identify novel degradation mechanisms and warheads capable of delivering new bifunctional degrader molecules that show efficient degradation across a range of targets and cellular systems and / or have improved profiles suitable for drug development.

[0009] Other bifunctional degrader molecules have been described in WO 2019 / 238886, WO 2019 / 238817, WO 2019 / 238816 and WO 2022 / 129925. Summary of the Invention

[0010] The present disclosure is based on the identification of a novel class of bifunctional molecules that are useful in the targeted and / or selective degradation of desired proteins (e.g., "target proteins"). Specifically, the present disclosure provides bifunctional molecules that facilitate proteasomal degradation of selected target proteins using a novel class of warheads.

[0011] The bifunctional molecules described herein comprise the following general structure:

[0012] TBL-LZ

[0013] Wherein, TBL is the target protein binding ligand and L is a linker. The portion "Z" ("warhead") regulates, assists and / or promotes proteasomal degradation of the target protein and, in some cases, can be referred to as a regulator, facilitator and / or promoter of proteasomal degradation. For example, in use, the TBL portion of the bifunctional molecule binds to the target protein. The portion Z (which is connected via a linker or otherwise attached to the TBL) then regulates, assists and / or promotes degradation of the target protein, for example, by acting to bring the target protein into proximity with the proteasome and / or by otherwise marking the target protein for proteasomal degradation within the cell.

[0014] Therefore, the bifunctional molecules described in the present disclosure can be considered to include: a target protein binding ligand (TBL) (i.e., a ligand capable of binding (e.g., specifically binding) to a target protein); a warhead or degradation tag (Z) (e.g., a portion Z that acts to regulate, assist and / or promote the degradation of the target protein) and a linker (e.g., a chemical linker) that conjugates, connects or links TBL and Z.

[0015] The bifunctional molecules described in this disclosure have been shown to be effective degraders of a wide range of target proteins. Without being bound by theory, it is hypothesized that the Z portion of the bifunctional molecules described herein does not bind to the ubiquitin E3 ligases typically relied upon in the classical PROTAC approaches discussed above (such as CRBN and VHL). Therefore, it is believed that the bifunctional molecules described herein regulate, assist and / or promote proteasomal degradation through alternative mechanisms. Therefore, a class of bifunctional molecules of the present invention can be used to combat a wider range of diseases (including diseases that are resistant to multiple PROTAC degraders).

[0016] According to a first aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a bifunctional molecule comprising the following general formula:

[0017] TBL-LZ

[0098] For the avoidance of doubt, when in any specific example of the present disclosure, in a structure herein, the ethylene double bond of Z, for example, the ethylene double bond of Z of Formula (I) is shown as a specific stereoisomer (E or Z), it need not be that specific stereoisomer. In other words, regardless of the specific stereoisomer shown, both E and Z stereoisomers and mixtures of both are included within the scope of the structure.

[0099] By way of further example, Z may be represented by any of formulas (Ia) or (Ib):

[0102] It will be understood that the bifunctional molecules of the present disclosure can exist in different stereoisomeric forms. The present disclosure includes within its scope the use of all stereoisomeric forms, or the use of stereoisomers of the bifunctional molecule. For example, when the bifunctional molecule contains one or more chiral centers, the present disclosure covers each single enantiomer of the bifunctional molecule and mixtures of enantiomers including racemic mixtures of these enantiomers. By way of other example, when the bifunctional molecule contains two or more chiral centers, the present disclosure covers each single diastereomer of the bifunctional molecule, as well as mixtures of multiple diastereomers.

[0103] Unless otherwise indicated, the various structures shown herein encompass all isomers (e.g., enantiomers, diastereomers, and geometric (or conformational) forms of the structure). For example, the disclosure encompasses both R and S configurations for each asymmetric center, as well as Z and E double bond isomers. Thus, single stereochemical isomers as well as enantiomeric, diastereomeric, and geometric (or conformational) mixtures of the compounds of the invention are to be understood to be within the scope of the disclosure. Additionally, unless otherwise indicated, tautomeric forms of the bifunctional molecules described herein, when present, are to be understood to be within the scope of the disclosure.

[0104] Additionally, unless otherwise stated, structures depicted herein are also meant to include compounds that differ only in the presence of one or more isotopically enriched atoms. For example, wherein one or more hydrogen atoms have been replaced by deuterium or tritium, or wherein one or more carbon atoms have been replaced by 13 C- or 14 C-enriched carbon-substituted bifunctional molecules as described herein are understood to be within the scope of the present disclosure. These molecules may be useful, for example, as analytical tools, as probes in biological assays, or as therapeutic agents according to the present invention. By way of further example, bifunctional molecules as described herein may be substituted with one or more deuterium atoms.

[0105] As used herein, reference to a "bifunctional molecule" may also encompass pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.

[0382]

[0383] Alternatively, it has been noted that although the various formulae described herein show the linker being connected via the heterocyclic nucleus (directly or indirectly via R 2 In some embodiments, the linker is connected to the Z portion, but the disclosure also extends to instances in which the linker is connected at any other position in the Z portion (so long as it has the correct valence and / or is chemically suitable). For example, the linker can replace a hydrogen atom at any position in the Z portion.

[0384] Thus, in some examples, Z can be represented as shown in formula (ZV) or (V):

[0385]

[0386] Among them, ring A 2 、R 1 、R 2 、R 3 、X 1 、X 2 、X3 , n and L are as defined in any of the embodiments disclosed above.

[0387] The dashed lines indicated by the square brackets in formulas (ZV) and (V) indicate that the linker can be attached via a covalent bond to any atom on the Z moiety, provided it has the correct valence, is chemically suitable, and / or provided that attachment of the linker at that alternative position does not disrupt the function of the Z moiety in promoting and / or assisting proteasomal degradation.

[0388] According to other aspects of the present disclosure, there is also provided a compound comprising the following general structure:

[0390] wherein the moiety Z is as defined in any of the formulae described herein (e.g., any of formulae (I) to (V) and (ZI) to (ZV)); and

[0392] These compounds can be useful in the synthesis of the described bifunctional molecules, for example, via a modular approach in which each of the moieties TBL, Z, and L is provided as a separate building block. In some examples, L and Z can be linked to provide the compound LZ as described above (which can then be further reacted to link to the appropriate TBL moiety).

[0393] Intermediates / fragments

[0394] As described above, structures comprising a Z moiety as described herein may find particular utility in targeted protein degradation. As such, intermediates comprising these Z moieties may be valuable in providing useful intermediates for the synthesis of bifunctional molecules for targeted protein degradation.

[0395] According to other aspects, intermediate compounds or fragments corresponding to any one or more of the formulas for Z described herein or any other example structures described herein are provided, wherein the LW or W moiety has been replaced by a group "G."

[0396] G is covalently linked to the disclosed structure.

[0397] According to other aspects, there is provided a compound comprising a Z moiety according to formula (VI) or (VIa):

[0398]

[0399] Among them, ring A 2 、R 1 、R 2 、R3 ,n,X 1 、X 2 and X 3 As defined in any one of the embodiments disclosed above.

[0400] As shown in formula (VI) and (VIa), G is directly or through R 2 In either case, G is covalently linked to the moiety Z. G may be linked (directly or via R 2 Indirectly) to any position of the heterocyclic core (as long as it has the correct valence and / or is chemically suitable). For example, G can replace a hydrogen atom at any position on the heterocyclic core.

[0401] The group G in formula (VI) or (VIa) is configured so that the Z portion can be connected to another chemical structure (such as a linker portion or a linker-target protein binding ligand portion) via the formation of a new covalent bond. After the new covalent bond is formed, the group G can form a part of a linker as defined herein.

[0402] In some examples, G can comprise a functional group that can facilitate the formation of a new covalent bond between Z and another moiety, for example, via the formation of an amide, ester, thioester, ketone, carbamate, amine, or ether bond, or via the formation of a new carbon-carbon bond or a new carbon-nitrogen bond.

[0403] By way of example only, G may be represented as follows:

[0404]

[0405] Among them, R G C1-C6 alkyl is absent or optionally substituted by one or more heteroatoms selected from N, O and S;

[0406] X G is a group selected from the group consisting of: -CO2H, -(CO)-N-hydroxysuccinimide and -(CO)-pentafluorophenol ester, -CHO, -COR G1 、-OH、-NH2、-NHR G2 , halogen (e.g., iodo and bromo), O-leaving group (e.g., -OTs (tosylate), OMs (mesylate), -OTf (triflate)), alkynyl, azide, diene group, aminooxy group, tetrazinyl, (E)-cyclooctenyl, cyclooctynyl, norbornyl, boronic acid, boronate, alkylborane or organometallic group (e.g., organotin, zinc or other suitable reagent); and R G1 and R G2 are independently selected from C1-C6 alkyl.

[0407] In this structure, the heterocyclic nucleus with Z (or, if present, R 2 Wavy lines are shown over the bonds forming connections (groups).

[0408] G through R G The group is attached to the heterocyclic core shown in formula (VI) (directly or via R 2 Group). In R G In those cases where the group X is not present G Directly connected to the heterocyclic core or R 2 superior.

[0409] Representative examples of suitable G moieties are shown below:

[0410]

[0411] It should be noted that the present disclosure further extends to any structure of Z shown in the formulae defined herein, such as formulae (I) to (V) and (ZI) to (ZV) or other representative examples of Z, wherein the group L on these structures has been replaced by a group G as defined above with respect to formula (VI) or (VIa).

[0412] Connector (L)

[0413] As described herein, TBL is connected or coupled to moiety Z via a linker L. The linker can be a chemical linker (e.g., a chemical linker moiety), and can be, for example, a covalent linker, which means that the linker is coupled to Z and / or TBL via a covalent bond.

[0414] The linker plays the effect that target protein binding ligand and Z part are connected to each other, and also allows these two parts to be combined with their respective targets and / or bring into play their predetermined function.Specifically, the linker can play the effect that target protein binding ligand is connected to Z, and also alleviates the possibility that Z part destroys, interferes and / or suppresses target protein binding ligand and target protein is combined.In addition or as an alternative, the linker can work to connect Z to target protein binding ligand, and also alleviates the possibility that target protein binding ligand destroys, interferes and / or suppresses the cellular interaction (for example, its function in regulating, helping and / or promoting the proteasome degradation of target protein) of Z.

[0415] In other words, by allowing each end of the bifunctional molecule to be used for binding to multiple components of the cellular environment (or another type of interaction), the linker can play a role in helping the targeted protein degradation. For example, the linker can be configured to allow the target protein binding partner to bind to the target protein without interference, destruction and / or inhibition by the Z part of the bifunctional molecule. Additionally or alternatively, the linker can be configured to allow the Z part to interact with multiple components in the cellular environment, thereby regulating, helping and / or promoting the proteasome degradation of the target protein without interference, destruction and / or inhibition by the target protein binding partner of the bifunctional molecule.

[0416] In many cases, a wide range of linkers will be tolerated. The choice of linker may depend on the protein being targeted for degradation (target protein) and / or the specific target protein binding partner.

[0417] The linker can be selected to provide a specific length and / or flexibility, for example, so that the target protein binding ligand and the Z portion are maintained within a specific distance and / or geometric structure. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the length and / or flexibility of the linker can be varied based on the structure and / or properties of the target protein binding ligand.

[0418] In some examples, TBL is directly linked to moiety Z via a covalent bond, ie the linker is a covalent bond. Such direct linkage is also encompassed by the term "linker" in the context of this disclosure (unless otherwise specified).

[0419] By way of example only, a linker can comprise any number of atoms between 1 to 200, 1 to 100, 1 to 50, 1 to 30, or 1 to 10. In some cases, a linker can comprise any number of atoms in a single linear chain between 1 to 200, 1 to 100, 1 to 50, 1 to 30, or 1 to 10. In some examples of the present disclosure, a linker can comprise any number of atoms in a single linear chain between 1 to 25, such as 25, or 1 to 20, such as 3 and 20, or 1 to 18, such as 3 and 18.

[0420] The flexibility degree of a joint can depend on the number of rotatable bonds present in the joint. A rotatable bond is defined as a single non-cyclic bond combined with a non-terminal heavy atom (e.g., a non-hydrogen atom). As described herein, an amide (CN) bond is considered to be non-rotatable due to a high rotational energy barrier. In some cases, the joint can include one or more parts selected from rings, double bonds, and amides to reduce the flexibility of the joint. In other cases, the joint can include a single bond (e.g., mainly including a single non-cyclic bond) of a larger number and / or ratio to increase the flexibility of the joint. It can also be understood that the length of the joint can affect the flexibility degree. For example, a shorter joint comprising fewer keys can also reduce the flexibility of the joint.

[0421] In some examples, the number of rotatable bonds present in the linker can be any number between 1 and 20, 1 and 15, or 1 and 10. In some examples, the number of rotatable bonds present in the linker can be any number between 2 and 9, 2 and 8, or 3 and 6.

[0422] In some examples, the linker can comprise any number between 10 and 20 atoms in a single linear chain; and / or the number of rotatable bonds present in the linker can be any number between 2 and 8.

[0423] The structure of the linker (L) can be represented as follows:

[0424] (L x ) q

[0425] Among them, each L x represents a subunit of L; and

[0426] q is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

[0427] For example, q can be any integer between 1 and 30, between 1 and 20, or between 1 and 5.

[0428] For example, when q is 1, the linker contains only one L x In the case where q is 2, the linker comprises two L subunits covalently linked to each other and can be represented as L1-L2. x In another example, when q is 3, the linker comprises three L covalently linked to each other and can be represented as L1-L2-L3 x For integer values ​​of q or even higher, L can contain the following subunits L1, L2, L3, L 4…… Until L q .

In other words, a "target protein" can be a protein or polypeptide that one selects for increased proteolysis in a cell. The term "selected target protein" can be any polypeptide or protein that has been selected for targeted protein degradation and / or increased proteolysis.

[0537] In some examples of the present disclosure, the term "target protein" does not include androgen receptor. As used herein, "androgen receptor" refers to the protein designated as P10275 by UniProtKB (ANDR_HUMAN).

[0540] According to the present disclosure, degradation of the target protein can occur when the target protein is subjected to and / or contacts a bifunctional molecule as described herein, for example, when the target protein is subjected to and / or contacts any of the bifunctional molecules in a cell.

[0541] Selective degradation and / or increased proteolysis of a target protein will reduce the level of the target protein and, therefore, can reduce the effect of the target protein in the cell. The control of the levels of a specific protein provided by the bifunctional molecules described herein can provide treatment for a disease state or condition that is modulated by or by the target protein by reducing the level of that protein in the subject's cells.

[0542] Target proteins that may undergo enhanced proteolysis and / or selective degradation when contacted with the bifunctional molecules of the present disclosure (and related methods of using these molecules) include any proteins and polypeptides. Target proteins include proteins and polypeptides that have biological functions or activities, such as structural, regulatory, hormonal, enzymatic, genetic, immune, contractile, storage, transport, and signal transduction functions and activities.

[0548] Target Binding Ligand (TBL)

[0549] As used herein, a "target protein binding ligand" refers to a ligand or moiety that binds to a target protein (e.g., a selected target protein). For example, a target protein binding ligand can be any moiety that selectively and / or specifically binds to a target protein. A bifunctional molecule according to the present disclosure can include a target protein binding ligand that binds to the target protein with sufficient binding affinity such that the target protein is more susceptible to degradation or proteolysis than a target protein not bound by the bifunctional molecule.

[0550] The target protein binding ligand can bind to the target protein with a binding affinity of less than or equal to about 10 μM, less than or equal to about 1 μM, less than or equal to about 0.5 μM, or less than or equal to about 0.1 μM.

[0551] In some examples, the ligand can bind to the target protein with a binding affinity of about 0.01 nM to about 10 μM, such as about 0.01 nM to about 8 μM, about 0.01 nM to about 5 μM, about 0.01 nM to about 3 μM.

[0552] For the avoidance of doubt, binding affinity is a measure of the tendency of an object comprising two components bound together to separate (dissociate) into the two components. As used herein, binding affinity is a measure of the tendency of the complex formed when a target protein binding ligand binds to a target protein to dissociate into separate components, i.e., the tendency of the target protein binding ligand to dissociate from the target protein.

[0553] The binding between the target protein and the target protein binding partner can include one or more binding interactions, such as one or more of hydrogen bonds, dipole-dipole bonds, ion-dipole bonds, ion-induced dipole bonds, ionic bonds, and covalent bonds. For example, the binding between the target protein and the target protein binding partner can include a salt bridge (a combination of hydrogen bonds and ionic bonds).

[0554] As described above, in some examples, the target protein binding ligand portion may not be a target protein binding ligand selected from the following: (i) estrogen receptor binding ligand; and (ii) androgen receptor binding ligand. Specifically, in some examples, the target protein ligand contained in the bifunctional molecule of the present disclosure: (i) is not a ligand that specifically binds to the estrogen receptor; and (ii) is not a ligand that specifically binds to the androgen receptor.

[0555] In some examples, the bifunctional molecules disclosed herein do not comprise a target protein binding ligand that binds to an estrogen receptor with a binding affinity of less than or equal to about 10 μM or less than or equal to about 1 μM.

[1516] Degradation activity

[1517] Degradation can be determined by measuring the amount of target protein in the presence of bifunctional molecules as described herein and / or comparing it with the amount of target protein observed in the absence of the bifunctional molecules. For example, the amount of target protein in the cell contacted with and / or treated with the bifunctional molecules as described herein can be determined. This amount can be compared with the amount of target protein in the cell not contacted with and / or treated with the bifunctional molecules (for example, as a control). If the amount of target protein in the cell contacted with and / or treated with the bifunctional molecules reduces, it can be considered that the bifunctional molecules help and / or promote degradation and / or proteolysis of the target protein.

[1518] The amount of target protein can be determined using methods known in the art, for example, by immunoblotting, immunoblotting analysis, and / or ELISA using cells that have been contacted and / or treated with the bifunctional molecule.

[1519] Selective degradation and / or increased proteolysis can be considered to have occurred if a decrease of at least 10%, e.g., 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% or 100% in the amount of target protein is observed following administration of the bifunctional molecule to the cells compared to a control.

[1520] For example, if a decrease of at least 10% (e.g., at least 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% or 100%) in the amount of target protein is observed within 4 hours or more (e.g., 4 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 30 hours, 36 hours, 42 hours, 48 ​​hours, 54 hours, 60 hours, 66 hours and 72 hours) after administration of the bifunctional molecule to the cell, then selective degradation and / or increased proteolysis can be considered to have occurred. The bifunctional molecule can be administered at any concentration, for example, a concentration between 0.01 nM and 10 μM, such as 0.01 nM, 0.1 nM, 1 nM, 10 nM, 100 nM, 1 μM and 10 μM. In some cases, after administration of the bifunctional molecule at a concentration of about 100 nM (e.g., after an incubation period of about 8 hours), an increase in degradation of the target protein of at least 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, or about 100% is observed.

[1521] One measure of the degradative activity of a bifunctional molecule is DC 50 As used herein, DC 50 The concentration required to achieve 50% of maximal degradation of the target protein. The bifunctional molecules described herein may include a DC less than or equal to 10000 nM, less than or equal to 1000 nM, less than or equal to 500 nM, less than or equal to 100 nM, or less than or equal to 75 nM. 50In some cases, the bifunctional molecule comprises less than or equal to 50 nM, less than or equal to 25 nM, or less than or equal to 10 nM of DC 50 .

[1522] Another measure of the degradation activity of bifunctional molecules is D max As used herein, D max represents the maximum percentage of target protein degradation. The bifunctional molecules described herein can comprise at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%, or about 100% of D max .

[1523] Yet another measure of the potency of the described bifunctional molecules could be their effect on cell viability and / or their IC 50 For example, the anti-proliferative effect of the bifunctional molecules as described herein can be evaluated in a cell viability assay to provide IC 50 As used herein, IC 50 The values ​​represent the concentration at which 50% cell viability is observed in a cell viability assay (following administration of the bifunctional molecules described herein). With respect to cell viability, the bifunctional molecules described herein may comprise an IC of less than 1000 nM, less than 500 nM, less than 100 nM, less than 50 nM, less than 25 nM, less than 20 nM, or less than 10 nM. 50 In some cases, the bifunctional molecules described herein can comprise an IC of less than 5 nM. 50 value.
