Abstract
Description
[0001] This application is a divisional application of Chinese patent application No. 2021800059037, with an application date of August 10, 2021, and the invention name is “Compounds and Compositions for Inhibiting EZH2”. Technical Field
[0002] The present invention relates to compounds, compositions and methods for inhibiting Enhancer of Zeste Homolog (EZH2), Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), or a combination thereof. Background Art
[0003] Site-specific lysine methylation on histones is one of the important epigenetic mechanisms that control and mediate many fundamental biological processes. The polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) represses gene transcription by methylating histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27) in the genomic regions of target genes. PRC2 requires a minimum of three core subunits, including SUZ12 (suppressor of zeste12), EED (embryonic ectoderm development), and the catalytic subunits EZH1 or EZH2 (Enhancer of Zeste homolog 1 / 2). EZH1 and EZH2 are homologous proteins that can be integrated into PRC2 separately despite having different tissue and temporal distributions. In PRC2, EZH2 can directly bind to the cofactor S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) and transfer the methyl group to the histone H3K27 site to form monomethylated lysine, dimethylated lysine and trimethylated lysine (H3K27me1, H3K27me2 and H3K27me3), thereby inhibiting gene transcription. PRC2-EZH2 has higher activity than PRC2-EZH1, mainly catalyzing the generation of H3K27me1 and some H3K27me2. EED can bind to H3K27me2 / 3 and allosterically activate the enzymatic activity of PRC2 to promote the spread of inhibitory marks.
[0004] EZH2 plays an important role in development and adult tissue homeostasis and is closely associated with a variety of diseases. EZH2, SUZ12, and EED are overexpressed in many cancers, including but not limited to breast cancer, prostate cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Activating mutations of EZH2 have been found in patients with DLBCL (diffuse large B-cell lymphoma), FL (follicular lymphoma), melanoma, and parathyroid carcinoma. In DLBCL, compounds inhibited the activity of PRC2 methyltransferase by competing with the cofactor SAM or directly binding to EED, reversing the high H3K27me3 state, reactivating the expression of target genes, and inhibiting tumor growth / proliferation. In addition, EZH2 inhibitors can release the suppression of Th1 chemokines in tumor cells and enhance T cell infiltration in ovarian and colorectal cancers.
[0005] Therefore, EZH2 provides a pharmacological target for DLBCL and other cancers. In addition, EZH2 also plays an important role in autoimmune diseases and other disorders. In conclusion, there is a great need for small molecules that inhibit EZH2 activity. Summary of the invention

The present invention is intended to include all such possible stereoisomers, including racemic mixtures, diastereomeric mixtures and optically pure forms. Optically active (R)- and (S)-stereoisomers can be prepared by chiral synthesis or using chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques. If possible, substituents on atoms with unsaturated double bonds can exist in cis-(Z)- or trans-(E)-form. If the compound contains a disubstituted cycloalkyl group, the cycloalkyl substituent can have a cis- or trans-configuration.
[0159] Any asymmetric atom (e.g., carbon, etc.) of one or more compounds of the invention may exist in a racemic or enantiomerically enriched form, e.g., (R)-, (S)-, or (R,S)-configuration. In some embodiments, each asymmetric atom has at least 50% enantiomeric excess, at least 60% enantiomeric excess, at least 70% enantiomeric excess, at least 80% enantiomeric excess, at least 90% enantiomeric excess, at least 95% enantiomeric excess, or at least 99% enantiomeric excess of the (R)- or (S)-configuration.

[0163] Any chemical formula described herein represents an unlabeled form of a compound as well as an isotopically labeled form. An isotopically labeled compound has the structure of the chemical formula described herein except that one or more atoms are replaced by atoms having a selected atomic mass or mass number. Isotopes that can be incorporated into the compounds of the invention include isotopes of hydrogen.
[0164] In addition, the incorporation of certain isotopes, especially deuterium (i.e. 2 H or D) can provide certain therapeutic advantages by improving metabolic stability, such as increasing half-life in vivo or reducing dosage requirements or improving therapeutic index and tolerance. It should be understood that deuterium in this context is considered to be a substituent of a compound of formula (I) or its subformula. The concentration of deuterium can be defined by an isotopic enrichment factor. As described in the present invention, the term "isotopic enrichment factor" refers to the ratio between the isotopic abundance and the natural abundance of a specified isotope. If a substituent in a compound of the invention is deuterium, such compound has an isotopic enrichment factor for each designated deuterium atom of at least 3500 (52.5% deuterium incorporation on each designated deuterium atom), at least 4000 (60% deuterium incorporation), at least 4500 (67.5% deuterium incorporation), at least 5000 (75% deuterium incorporation), at least 5500 (82.5% deuterium incorporation), at least 6000 (90% deuterium incorporation), at least 6333.3 (95% deuterium incorporation), at least 6466.7 (97% deuterium incorporation), at least 6600 (99% deuterium incorporation), or at least 6633.3 (99.5% deuterium incorporation). It should be understood that the term "isotopic enrichment factor" can be applied to any isotope in the same manner as described for deuterium.
