[0077] The invention disclosed herein is also intended to cover all pharmaceutically acceptable compounds of formula (I) which are isotopically labeled by replacing one or more atoms with atoms having a different atomic mass or mass number. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into the disclosed compounds include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, fluorine, chlorine, and iodine, such as 2 H. 3 H. 11 C. 13 C. 14 C. 13 N. 15 N. 15 O. 17 O. 18 O. 31 P. 32 P. 35 S.18 F. 36 Cl, 123 I and 125 I. These radiolabeled compounds can be used to help determine or measure the effectiveness of compounds by characterizing, for example, the site or mode of action on ATM and DNA-PK enzymes, or the binding affinity to pharmacologically important sites of action on ATM and DNA-PK enzymes. Certain isotopically labeled compounds of formula (I), for example, those incorporating radioisotopes, are useful in drug and / or substrate tissue distribution studies. In view of their ease of incorporation and ease of detection, the radioisotope tritium (i.e., 3 H) and carbon 14 (i.e., 14 C) is particularly suitable for this purpose.

[0078] With heavier isotopes (such as deuterium, i.e. 2 H) substitutions may offer certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability (eg, increased in vivo half-life) or reduced dosage requirements and, therefore, may be preferred in some circumstances.

[0079] Using positron-emitting isotopes such as 11 C. 18 F. 15 O and 13 N) substitution can be used in positron emission tomography (PET) studies to examine substrate receptor occupancy. Isotopically labeled compounds of formula (I) can generally be prepared by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art or by methods analogous to those described in the examples and preparations listed below, using appropriate isotopically labeled reagents in place of the non-labeled reagents previously employed.

Therefore, the present invention includes compounds produced by a method comprising contacting the compounds of the present invention with a mammal for a period of time sufficient to obtain its metabolites. Such products are generally administered to animals (such as rats, mice, guinea pigs, dogs, monkeys) or humans by administering the radiolabeled compounds of the present invention in a detectable dose, allowing sufficient time for metabolism to occur, and separating and identifying their conversion products from urine, blood or other biological samples.

[0089] Typically crystallization produces a solvate of the compounds of the invention. As used herein, the term "solvate" refers to an aggregate of molecules comprising one or more compounds of the invention and one or more solvent molecules. The solvent may be water, in which case the solvate may be a hydrate. Alternatively, the solvent may be an organic solvent. Therefore, the compounds of the invention may exist as hydrates, including monohydrates, dihydrates, hemihydrates, sesquihydrates, trihydrates, tetrahydrates, etc., and corresponding solvated forms. The compounds of the invention may be true solvates, while in other cases, the compounds of the invention may retain only exogenous water or a mixture of water plus some exogenous solvents.

[0090] "Pharmaceutical composition" refers to a preparation of a compound of the invention and a medium generally accepted in the art for delivering biologically active compounds to mammals (eg, humans). For this purpose, such a medium includes all pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, diluents or excipients.

[0091] "Therapeutically effective amount" refers to an amount of a compound of the invention that is sufficient to achieve treatment as defined below in a mammal, preferably a human, when administered to a mammal, preferably a human or a dog. The amount of a compound of the invention or another pharmaceutical agent (e.g., an anti-tumor agent) that constitutes a "therapeutically effective amount" will vary depending on the compound, the condition and its severity, the mode of administration, and the age of the mammal to be treated, but can be routinely determined by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on his or her own knowledge and this disclosure.

[0092] As used herein, "Treating" or "treatment" encompasses the treatment of a target disease or condition in a mammal (preferably a human) having the target disease or condition, and includes:

[0093] (i) preventing a disease or condition from occurring in a mammal, particularly where the mammal is susceptible to the condition but has not yet been diagnosed with the condition;

[0094] (ii) inhibiting the disease or condition, i.e., arresting its development;

[0095] (iii) alleviate the disease or condition, that is, cause a remission of the disease or condition; or

[0096] (iv) Alleviate symptoms caused by a disease or condition, i.e., relieve pain, but do not address the underlying disease or condition. The terms "disease" and "condition" as used herein may be used interchangeably, or may be different, in that a particular disease or condition may not have a known causal agent (such that the etiology has not been worked out), and therefore is not yet recognized as a disease, but only as an undesirable condition or syndrome in which clinicians have identified a more or less specific set of symptoms.

[0097] The compounds of the invention, or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, may contain one or more asymmetric centers and may thus give rise to enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomeric forms, which may be defined in terms of absolute stereochemistry as (R)- or (S)-, or as (D)- or (L)- for amino acids. The present invention is intended to include all such possible isomers, as well as racemic and optically pure forms thereof. Optically active (+) and (-), (R)- and (S)-, or (D)- and (L)-isomers may be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques (e.g., chromatography and fractional crystallization). Conventional techniques for the preparation / isolation of individual enantiomers include chiral synthesis from suitable optically pure precursors or resolution of the racemate (or racemate of a salt or derivative) using, for example, chiral high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). When the compounds described herein contain olefinic double bonds or other centers of geometric asymmetry, unless otherwise specified, the compounds are intended to include both E and Z geometric isomers. Likewise, all tautomeric forms are also intended to be included.

[0110] Compounds, compositions and methods

[0111] The present invention provides compounds and compositions that can be used, for example, alone or in combination with radiation therapy and / or anti-tumor therapy to treat neoplastic diseases (e.g., cancer, such as those described herein). The compound can be a compound of formula (I):

[0112]

[0113] or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof,

[0114] in

[0115] Z is CH, CR 3 or N;

[0116] Y is CHR 5 or NR 6 ;

[0117] n is 0, 1, 2, or 3;

[0118] R 1 Yes-OLN(R 7 ) 2 or an optionally substituted four-membered saturated N-heterocyclic group;

[0119] R 2 It is C 1-3 alkyl;

[0120] Each R 3 is independently halogen or optionally substituted C 1-3 alkyl;

[0121] R 4 is optionally substituted alkyl;

[0122] R 5 is hydrogen, optionally substituted C 1-3 Alkyl or benzyloxy;

[0123] R 6 is an optionally substituted C 1-3 alkyl;

[0124] Each R 7 is independently H or optionally substituted C 1-3 alkyl; and

[0125] L is optionally substituted ethylene.

[0126] Advantageously, the compounds of the invention (e.g., compounds 568, 569, or 570) may exhibit superior inhibitory activity against ATM and DNA-PK. Advantageously, the compounds of the invention (e.g., compounds 568, 569, or 570) may exhibit superior selectivity, as measured by reduced off-target activity (e.g., mTOR inhibition, PI3Kα / δ inhibition, and / or hERG inhibition). For example, the compounds of the invention (e.g., compounds 568, 569, or 570) may have a lower IC value than ATM. 50 or DNA-PK IC s0 An mTOR IC that is at least 10 times (e.g., at least 20 times) larger 50 The compounds of the invention (eg, compounds 568, 569, or 570) may have an mTOR IC of 10 nM or greater (eg, >100 nM). 50 Additionally or alternatively, the compounds of the invention (eg, compounds 568, 569, or 570) may have a 50 or DNA-PK IC 50 hERG IC at least 100-fold (e.g., at least 500-fold, at least 1000-fold, or at least 3000-fold) greater 50 , when measured at the same compound concentration. The compounds of the invention (eg, compounds 568, 569, or 570) may have a hERG IC of 3 μM or greater (eg, 10 μM or greater). 50 .

[0127] Advantageously, the compounds of the invention (eg, compounds 568, 569, or 570) may exhibit excellent pharmacokinetic properties (eg, C max , AUC and / or t 1 / 2 ).

[0128] In some embodiments, the compound is selected from the group consisting of:

[0129]

[0130] The advantage of the compounds of the present invention is that they can inhibit ATM (ataxia-telangiectasia, mutant) and DNA-PK kinases. ATM (ataxia-telangiectasia, mutant) and DNA-PK kinases are especially important regulators of the response of cells to DNA breaks and the inhibition of any of these molecules significantly increases the sensitivity of cells to ionizing radiation. Therefore, the compounds of the present invention can be effective inhibitors of ATM and DNA-PK effects, with or without radiation and with or without chemotherapy or immunotherapy, to provide effective therapies for treating tumor diseases (e.g., cancers, such as those described herein). Treatment of patients with the compounds of the present invention can delay or eliminate the repair of DNA damage by radiotherapy. Therefore, patients receiving the compounds of the present invention can better respond to anti-tumor therapy. Advantageously, patients receiving the compounds of the present invention can obtain therapeutic benefits by increasing tumor control from standard doses of radiotherapy or by achieving similar levels of tumor control from lower doses of ionizing radiation compared to conventional use of patients who have not received the compounds of the present invention. Advantageously, lower doses of ionizing radiation are less damaging to non-cancerous tissues than the doses required for patients who have not received the compounds of the present invention.

[0131] Humans and mice with loss-of-function mutations in the ATM or PRKDC genes, encoding mutant ataxia telangiectasia (ATM) kinase and DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK), respectively, are hypersensitive to ionizing radiation. Inhibition of ATM and DNA-PK kinases together can effectively sensitize tumor cells to radiation or DNA damaging agents (e.g., anti-tumor agents). The efficacy of dual inhibition of ATM and DNA-PK kinases may be superior to the efficacy of inhibiting either kinase alone.

[0132] Additionally, the compounds of the invention may advantageously exhibit reduced inhibition of other kinases (ATR and mTOR) and may therefore exhibit reduced toxicity.

[0133] The compounds of the invention may sensitize tumor cells to radiation and / or anti-tumor agents.

[0134] method

[0135] On the other hand, the present invention provides a method for treating a tumor disease (e.g., cancer) in a mammal, preferably a human or a dog, wherein the method comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the present invention to a mammal in need thereof. In some embodiments, the compound is administered to a mammal receiving radiation therapy.

[0136] On the other hand, the present invention provides a method for treating a tumor disease (e.g., cancer) in a mammal, wherein the method comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the present invention to a mammal in need thereof. In some embodiments, the compound is administered to a mammal in combination with a DNA damaging agent. Non-limiting examples of DNA damaging agents include cisplatin, oxaliplatin, carboplatin, valrubicin, idarubicin, calicheamicin, and PARP inhibitors.

[0137] On the other hand, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of the present invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. In one embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition comprises a compound of the present invention in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier in an amount effective to treat a tumor disease in an animal (preferably a mammal).

[0138] The compounds of the invention (when used in combination therapy) can enhance the effectiveness of other radiotherapy or drug therapy, which can reduce the incidence and / or severity of adverse events associated with other drug therapy if it allows the dose of the other therapy to be reduced. For example, in patients receiving a combination therapy comprising a compound of the invention and a dose-reduced radiotherapy, side effects of radiation (e.g., oral or gastrointestinal mucositis, dermatitis, pneumonia, or fatigue) can be reduced (e.g., the incidence of adverse events can be reduced by at least 1%, 5%, 10%, or 20%) compared to patients receiving a standard full-dose radiotherapy without a compound of the invention. In addition, other adverse events that can be reduced (e.g., the incidence of adverse events can be reduced by at least 1%, 5%, 10%, or 20%) in patients receiving a combination therapy comprising a compound of the invention and a dose-reduced radiotherapy compared to patients receiving a standard full-dose radiotherapy without a compound of the invention can be late effects of radiation, such as radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis, heart damage, intestinal obstruction, nerve damage, vascular damage, lymphedema, brain necrosis, or radiation-induced cancer. Similarly, when the compound is administered in combination therapy with another anticancer drug (e.g., those described herein), the combination therapy may result in the same or even increased tumor cell death, even when the dose of the other anticancer drug is reduced. Thus, reducing the dose of the other anticancer drug can reduce the severity of adverse events caused by the other anticancer drug.

[0150] Preparation of the compounds of the present invention

[0151] The compounds of the present invention can be prepared using methods and techniques known in the art. Suitable processes for synthesizing these compounds are provided in the examples. Generally, compounds of formula (I) can be prepared according to the following schemes. The sources of the starting materials for these reactions are also described.

[0152] Protecting groups can be added or removed in the preparation of compounds of the invention according to standard techniques known to those skilled in the art and as described herein. The use of protecting groups is described in detail in Greene, TW and PGM Wuts, Greene's Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis (2006), 4th edition, Wiley. The protecting group can also be a polymer resin, such as Wang resin or 2-chlorotrityl chloride resin.

[0153] Those skilled in the art will also understand that, although such protected derivatives of the compounds of the present invention may not possess pharmacological activity as such, they may be administered to a mammal and thereafter metabolized in vivo to form pharmacologically active compounds of the present invention.

[0154] All compounds described below that can be present in free base or acid form can be converted into their pharmaceutically acceptable salts by treatment with appropriate inorganic or organic bases or acids. Salts of compounds prepared below can be converted into their free base or acid form by standard techniques. It should be understood that all polymorphs, amorphous forms, anhydrates, hydrates, solvates and salts of the compounds of the present invention are within the scope of the present invention. In addition, all compounds of the present invention containing acid or ester groups can be converted into corresponding esters or acids by methods known to those skilled in the art or by methods described herein, respectively.

[0155] A general representation of the preparation of many of these compounds is shown in Scheme 1 below. The compounds are prepared by coupling the various components of the molecule: Suzuki coupling of a halo substituted compound 3 (or 2') with a boronic acid or boronate compound 2 (3'). Further reactions may or may not be required to provide the synthesis of the compounds of the invention. The preparation of specific compounds of the invention is shown in the following schemes.

[0156]

[0157] In this method, the Suzuki coupling reaction conditions can be used to convert halogen substitution into aryl substitution. The conditions of this method are disclosed in many publications, which have been reviewed by A.Suzuki in Modern Arene Chemistry 2002, in a paper entitled "The Suzuki reaction with arylboron compounds in arene chemistry" in 53-106. In carrying out this reaction, any suitable conditions conventional in the Suzuki reaction can be utilized. Usually, the Suzuki coupling reaction is carried out in the presence of a transition metal catalyst such as a palladium catalyst using any conventional organic solvent and a weak inorganic or organic base of this reaction. Wherein preferred organic solvents are polar aprotic solvents. Any conventional polar aprotic solvent can be used to prepare the compounds of the present invention. Suitable solvents are conventional, particularly higher boiling point solvents, for example, dimethoxyethane. The weak inorganic base can be a carbonate or bicarbonate, such as potassium carbonate or cesium carbonate. The organic base can be an amine, such as triethylamine.

[0158]

[0159] Specifically, other spirooxindole intermediates 7 are synthesized as shown in Scheme 2. Cyclic or heterocyclic substituted esters 5 are treated with a strong base such as, but not limited to, lithium diisopropylamide in an anhydrous solvent such as, but not limited to, tetrahydrofuran at low temperature to react with starting material 4 to provide intermediate 6, which is commercially available or prepared by one skilled in the art following methods described in the literature. Intermediate 6 is reduced by a reducing agent such as, but not limited to, iron to give the corresponding amino intermediate, which is cyclized in situ to provide oxindole compound 7. Therefore, compound 7 is then N-alkylated with an alkylating agent in the presence of a base such as, but not limited to, potassium carbonate or sodium hydride in a polar solvent such as, but not limited to, N,N-dimethylformamide or tetrahydrofuran, thereby generating spirooxindole intermediate 8.

[0160]

[0161] Specifically, the compounds of formula (I) in the present invention can be synthesized as shown in Scheme 3. Commercially available 5-bromo-2-chloro-3-nitro-pyridine (9) is reacted with a nucleophile XH (10) in the presence of a strong base such as, but not limited to, sodium hydride to provide intermediate 11. Under palladium catalysis, boronate ester 12 can be prepared, which is then reacted with spiro intermediate 8 to provide the cross-coupled product 13. The nitro group in compound 13 is reduced to an amino group using a reducing agent such as, but not limited to, iron to provide intermediate 14. Reaction of 14 with different sulfonyl chlorides (15) provides the synthesis of compounds of formula (I).

[0162]

[0163]

[0164] Specifically, the compounds of formula (I) in the present invention can also be synthesized as shown in Scheme 4. The nitro group in compound 11 is reduced to an amino group using a reducing agent such as, but not limited to, iron to provide intermediate 16. Reaction of 16 with different sulfonyl chlorides (15) provides sulfonamide intermediate 17, which is converted to its corresponding boronate ester 18 under palladium catalysis. Boronate ester 18 can be coupled with halogenated compound 8 under Suzuki reaction conditions to provide compounds of formula (I).

[0165] In Schemes 3 and 4, cross-coupled compounds can also be synthesized using Suzuki coupling chemistry with components having reversed halogen and boronate / boronic acid substitution patterns, for example, as shown in Scheme 5.

[0166]

[0167] Specifically, the compounds of formula (I) in the present invention can also be synthesized as shown in Scheme 5. The halogenated compound 8 can be converted to its corresponding boronate ester 19 under palladium catalysis. The boronate ester 19 can be coupled with the halogenated compound 17 under Suzuki reaction conditions to provide the compounds of formula (I).

[0168] In the implementation of the inventive method, any one of the compounds of this invention or any combination of the compounds of this invention or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt of effective dose is administered individually or in combination via any commonly used and acceptable method known in the art. Therefore, the compound or composition can be administered orally (e.g., buccal cavity), sublingually, parenterally (e.g., intramuscularly, intravenously or subcutaneously), rectum (e.g., by suppository or lotion), percutaneously (e.g., skin electroporation) or by inhalation (e.g., by aerosol) and in shape or solid, liquid or gas administration (including tablets and suspensions). It can be arbitrarily administered with continuous therapy or with single dose therapy in a single unit dosage form. The therapeutic composition can also be in the form of an oil emulsion or dispersion combined with a lipophilic salt such as pamoic acid, or in the form of a biodegradable sustained-release composition for subcutaneous or intramuscular administration.

[0169] Useful pharmaceutical carriers for preparing compositions thereof may be solid, liquid or gaseous; thus, the compositions may take the form of tablets, pills, capsules, suppositories, powders, enteric coatings or other protective preparations (e.g., bound on ion exchange resins or packaged in lipid-protein vesicles), sustained release preparations, solutions, suspensions, elixirs, aerosols, and the like. The carrier may be selected from a variety of oils, including those of petroleum, animal, vegetable or synthetic origin, such as peanut oil, soybean oil, mineral oil, sesame oil, and the like. Water, saline, aqueous dextrose solutions, and glycols are preferred liquid carriers, particularly (when isotonic with blood) for injectable solutions. For example, formulations for intravenous administration comprise a sterile aqueous solution of the active ingredient, which is prepared by dissolving the solid active ingredient in water to prepare an aqueous solution and sterilizing the solution. Suitable pharmaceutical excipients include starch, cellulose, talc, glucose, lactose, gelatin, malt, rice, flour, chalk, silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, sodium stearate, glyceryl monostearate, sodium chloride, skimmed milk powder, glycerol, propylene glycol, water, ethanol, etc. The composition can accept conventional pharmaceutical additives such as preservatives, stabilizers, wetting agents or emulsifiers, salts for adjusting osmotic pressure, buffers, etc. Suitable pharmaceutical carriers and their preparations are described in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences by EW Martin. In any case, such compositions will contain an effective amount of active compound and a suitable carrier in order to prepare a suitable dosage form for appropriate administration to a recipient.

[0170] The dosage of the compounds of the invention depends on many factors, such as, for example, the mode of administration, the age and weight of the patient, and the condition of the patient to be treated, and will ultimately be determined by the attending physician or veterinarian. This amount of active compound determined by the attending physician or veterinarian is referred to herein and in the claims as an "effective amount".

[0171] The present invention will now be further described in the following examples, which are intended to be illustrative only and not limiting of the scope of the present invention.

Reactions using microwave radiation for heating were performed using Biotage Initiator +. Multi-milligram to multi-gram scale purification was performed by methods known to those skilled in the art such as elution by silica gel flash column chromatography; in some cases, preparative flash column chromatography purification was also achieved by using a pre-packed silica gel column (Welch / Agela) eluted with a Biotage CombiFlash system.

[0174] For the purpose of determining compound identity and purity, an analytical LC-MS (liquid chromatography / mass spectrometry) system is typically used, which is powered by a Waters ZQ TM The platform is composed of an Agilent 1100 series HPLC with an autosampler. The column is typically a Water Xterra MS C18, 3.0×50 mm, 5 μm. The flow rate is 1 mL / min and the injection volume is 10 μL. UV detection is in the range of 210-400 nm. The mobile phase consists of solvent A (water + 0.06% TFA) and solvent B (acetonitrile + 0.05% TFA) with a gradient of 100% solvent A for 0.7 min, 100% solvent B over 3.75 min, held for 1.1 min, and then returned to 100% solvent A over 0.2 min.

[0175] For some separations, the use of supercritical fluid chromatography may also be useful. Supercritical fluid chromatography separations were performed using a Mettler-Toledo Minigram system with the following typical conditions: 100 bar, 30 °C, 2.0 mL / min, in supercritical fluid CO 2 The 12 mm AD column was eluted with 40% MeOH in 2% CO. In the case of analytes with basic amino groups, 0.2% isopropylamine was added to the methanol modifier.

[0176] Many compounds of formula (I) were also purified by reverse phase HPLC using methods well known to those skilled in the art. In some cases, preparative HPLC purifications were performed using a PE Sciex 150EX Mass Spec attached to a Shimadzu preparative HPLC system and a Leap autoinjector controlling a Gilson 215 collector. Compounds were collected from the elution stream using MS detection in cation detection: Solvent (A) 0.05% TFA / H using an appropriate linear gradient mode over 10 minutes 2 Elution of the compounds from a C-18 column (2.0 X 10 cm, eluted at 20 mL / min) was achieved with 1% O and solvent (B) 0.035% TFA / acetonitrile. For injection onto the HPLC system, the crude sample was dissolved in a mixture of methanol, acetonitrile and DMSO.

TrypLE TM The cells were split approximately 3 times using 1 μg / mL doxycycline (Sigma, D9891) and maintained at a confluency of approximately 40% to approximately 80%. Prior to the assay, the cells were induced for 48 hours with 1 μg / mL doxycycline (Sigma, D9891). On the day of the experiment, the induced cells were resuspended and incubated at 5 × 10 5 Cells / 6 cm cell culture dish were plated on coverslips. hERG channel-mediated currents were acquired by a manual patch clamp recording system equipped with an amplifier (HEKA, EPC10 and Molecular Devices, multiclamp 700B) and an inverted phase contrast microscope (Olympus, IX51 / 71 / 73). Glass pipettes were prepared by a micropipette puller (Sutter, P97 and Narishige, PC-10) and qualified by pipette resistance in the range of 2-4 MΩ. The internal pipette solution was 140 mM KCl, 2 mM MgCl 2 , 10 mM EGTA, 5 mM MgATP, and 10 mM HEPES (pH adjusted to 7.35 with KOH), and the external buffer was 132 mM NaCl, 4 mM KCl, 3 mM CaCl 2 , 0.5 mM MgCl 2 , 11.1mM glucose and 10mM HEPES (pH adjusted to 7.35 with NaOH). Maintain full-cell configuration and continuously monitor access resistance (<15MΩ). The hERG current is induced by depolarizing the membrane to +30mV for 4.8 seconds, and the voltage is set back to -50mV for 5.2 seconds to remove inactivation and measure the deactivated tail current. The maximum amount of tail current size is used to measure the hERG current amplitude. In order to evaluate the hERG inhibitory effect, blank vehicle and test articles are perfused into cells by a liquid perfusion system (ALA, VM8 gravity flow delivery system) under the full-cell recording configuration. For dose response determination, the test article is cumulatively applied to the cell from low concentration to high concentration. Positive control (dofetilide) was used in the experiment to ensure the performance of the cell and operation as the main part of the method validation. The hERG current inhibition percentage is fitted for the dose concentration to establish a dose response curve and determine the IC50 .

The sample was loaded into NuPAGE 3-8% Tris-acetate protein gel (Invitrogen, EA03785BOX) and electrophoresed with 1X Tris-acetate SDS running buffer (Invitrogen, LA0041), or loaded into NuPAGE 4-12% Bis-Tris protein gel (Invitrogen, NP0336BOX) and electrophoresed with 1X MOPS SDS running buffer (Invitrogen, NP0001).

[0313] Protein was transferred to nitrocellulose membrane (Amersham, 10600003) overnight. The membrane was blocked with 5% skim milk powder in 1X TBST for 1 hour and incubated with primary antibody at 4°C overnight. The membrane was washed with 1X TBST for 4x 10min at RT, then incubated with secondary antibody for 1 hour at RT, followed by 3x 10min washing with 1X TBST at RT. The membrane was visualized using ODYSSEY CLX system or ECL (ECL blotting substrate, Pierce, 32209, 34075, 34095).

[0314] Clonogenic survival assay. This assay was performed with compound 569. Cells were plated in 6-well plates at different densities: 250 cells for no IR control; 5000 cells for 2Gy IR; and 10000 cells for 4Gy IR, and cultured overnight. The next day, cells were pre-incubated with 100, 250, 500 or 1000nM of compound 569 or DMSO for 30 minutes and then exposed to increasing doses of IR (0, 2 or 4Gy). After IR, cells were incubated continuously for 5h with DMSO or compound 569, after which the culture medium was removed and the cells were washed with PBS. Cells were cultured in complete medium in the absence of inhibitors for 9 days. The cells were then stained (PBS, 0.0037% v / v formaldehyde, 0, 1% crystal violet), rinsed with water and dried.

[0315] Tumor studies. Female NCr nu / nu mice (Crl:NU(NCr)-Foxnlnu, strain 490) were obtained from Charles River at 5-6 weeks of age. All animal procedures used in these studies were approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) of Duke University.

[0316] FADU or MDA-MB-231 cells were harvested during logarithmic phase growth for in vivo implantation. Resuspended cells were washed three times in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) before preparing working dilutions in PBS. FADU cells were diluted to 1x10 7 cells / mL, and dilute MDA-MB-231 cells to 5 x 10 7 100 μL of cell suspension was injected subcutaneously in the right flank of each mouse. Tumor growth was monitored until the tumor reached at least 100 mm 3 The target volume was reached, at which point the mice were randomized into four treatment groups.

[0317] After implantation of the tumor cell lines, mice were monitored weekly for tumor progression. After detection, tumors were measured in two dimensions using a digital caliper. Tumors were measured when they reached at least 100 mm 3 Treatment was initiated after 4-6 months and measurements were taken 2 to 3 times per week after enrollment in one of the treatment groups. The study endpoint was defined as a five-fold increase in tumor volume on treatment.

[0318] The vehicle used in this study was 0.5% (hydroxypropyl) methylcellulose (HPMC) and 0.2% Tween 80 dissolved in deionized water. The pH of the vehicle was adjusted to 7.0-8.0 and the vehicle was stored at 4°C. On each day of in vivo treatment, the appropriate amount of the test compound was added to the vehicle at room temperature. If necessary, the mixture was vortexed to produce a final concentration of 1.6 mg / mL.

[0319] Pharmacodynamic (PD) Assay. Tumor studies were performed as follows. Mice bearing FADU or MDA-231 tumors were pre-administered with vehicle alone or compound 569 alone (3, 6, and 10 mg / kg). Tumors were then irradiated with 10 Gy 45 minutes after administration of vehicle or compound 569 or not irradiated (vehicle and compound 569, 10 mg / kg). Tumors were harvested 1 h after irradiation.

[0320] Tissue homogenates for pharmacodynamic analysis were collected and processed as follows. Tumor tissues from FADU or MDA-MB-231 tumors were snap frozen in liquid nitrogen and pulverized on dry ice using a tissue grinder. A portion of the tumor powder was transferred to a microtube and then 500 μL of RIPA buffer [50 nM Tris, pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 0.1% SDS, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, 1% CA-630 (Sigma, I8896)]. To 10 ml of RIPA buffer, 2 tablets were added, each containing a protease inhibitor and a phosphatase inhibitor (Roche, #04693159001), 200 μL 0.1 M PMSF and 160 μL aprotinin (Sigma, A6279). The suspension was homogenized on ice with a pellet pestle motor (KONTES) and incubated on ice for 30 minutes. The cell lysate was centrifuged at 13,200 rpm for 15 min at 4°C and the supernatant was transferred to a new tube and analyzed for protein concentration using a BCA kit (Pierce, 23227), followed by immunoblotting.

[0321] In vivo tumor growth delay studies were performed as follows. After implantation of the tumor cell lines, mice were monitored weekly for tumor progression. 3 After tumor progression, tumor-bearing mice were divided into one of four groups, with five mice in each group. Tumor volumes ranged between 100 and 500 mm 3Between. Vehicle or compound 569 (10 mg / kg) was administered once a day by oral gavage for three consecutive days (qd×3), alone or in combination with focal radiation. The delivery volume of vehicle or compound 569 was adjusted based on the weight of each animal. Mice assigned to the radiotherapy group received 3Gy every day for three consecutive days (qd×3) 45 minutes after the administration of vehicle or compound 569. Mice were anesthetized with isoflurane during radiotherapy, and radiotherapy was performed using an X-RAD 225Cx small animal image-guided irradiator (Precision X-Ray). By fluoroscopy, the irradiation field of 40mmx 40mm was centered on the leg carrying the tumor. Mice were irradiated with parallel relative front and back fields of 225kVp, 13mA X-rays at an average dose rate of 300cGy / min using a 0.3mm Cu filter.

[0322] Group 1 mice received vehicle, qd×3.

[0323] The mice in group 2 received 10 mg / kg of compound 569, qd×3.

[0324] Mice in group 3 received vehicle 45 min before 3 Gy focal irradiation, qd×3.

[0325] Mice in group 4 received 10 mg / kg of compound 569 qd×3 45 minutes before 3 Gy focal irradiation.

[0326] Statistical and graphical analysis of in vivo data. Prism (GraphPad) was used for graphical representation. SAS 9.4 and R 3.6.1 were used for statistical analysis. Tumor growth rates were compared among the four treatment groups. To adjust for different tumor sizes at the start of treatment, relative tumor volumes were calculated by dividing the tumor volume at each time point by the baseline volume. Line graphs were used to show median relative tumor volumes over time ( Figure 6 and 8 When an animal was withdrawn from the study due to tumor quintuples, the final tumor volume recorded for that animal was included in the data used to calculate the median volume at subsequent time points. Kaplan-Meier plots were used to display the percentage of mice in each treatment group that remained in the study over time ( Figure 7 and 9 ). Mice found dead before reaching the five-fold endpoint were right-censored. The log-rank test was used to assess differences in five-fold survival between the four treatment groups. P values ​​less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant.

[0327] result

[0328] Figure 1The image of the immunoblot from the in vitro experiment of assessing the effect of compound 569 on MCF7 cells with or without radiation is shown. The immunoblot shows the inhibition of the radiation-induced autophosphorylation of ATM and DNA-PK kinases and the radiation-induced phosphorylation of KAP1 (ATM substrate) by compound 569 in tumor cells. MCF7 (a kind of human breast cancer cell line) was pretreated with compound 569 at a concentration of 20, 100, 500 and 1000nM for 30 minutes. DMSO was used as a negative control. The cells were then exposed to ionizing radiation (IR) of 0 or 10Gy, and after one hour, the harvested cells were used for immunoblot analysis. Compound 569 showed effective dose-dependent inhibition of the radiation-induced phosphorylation (both autophosphorylation events) of DNA-PKcs at Ser2056 and ATM at Ser1981 and the radiation-induced phosphorylation of ATM substrate KAP1 (ser824), proving that compound 569 inhibits both DNA-PK and ATM kinases in cells.

[0329] Figure 2 The radiosensitization properties of compound 569 in an in vitro clonogenic survival assay were demonstrated. MCF7 cells were pretreated with vehicle or compound 569 at 100, 250, 500, and 1000 nM for 30 minutes and then irradiated with increasing doses of IR (0, 2, and 4 Gy). After 5 h, the culture medium was removed and fresh culture medium without inhibitor was added to the cells and cultured for 9 days before fixation, staining, and colony counts. In the absence of IR, a 5-hour exposure of cells to compound 569 in MCF7 cells induced a significant degree of radiosensitization without evidence of cytotoxicity ( Figure 2 , Table 1).

[0330] Figure 3It is an immunoblot showing that compound 569, AZD0156 (selective ATM inhibitor; ATMi), peposertib (selective DNA-PK inhibitor; DNA-PKi) and the combination of AZD0156 and peposertib (Ai+Di) induce TBK1 phosphorylation in HCT116 cells expressing wild-type p53 or HCT116 cells with negative p53 expression. Phosphorylation of TBK1 is a marker of type I interferon response activation and is associated with enhanced tumor response to immune checkpoint blockade therapy. Dual inhibition of ATM and DNA-PKcs by combining two selective chemical inhibitors (AZD0156 and peposertib) leads to deeper activation of TBK1 than using any selective inhibitor alone. Similarly, exposing cells to compound 569 (i.e., a dual inhibitor of ATM and DNA-PKcs) is a more effective TBK1 phosphorylation activator than any single-targeted kinase inhibitor and is independent of p53 status. Activation of TBK1 by 569 and dual inhibition of ATM and DNA-PKcs appear to be independent of cGAS and phospho-STING induction.

[0331]

[0332] In order to evaluate the pharmacodynamic activity of compound 569 in vivo, FADU and MDA-MB-231 cells were grown as tumor xenografts in nude mice. Vehicle or compound 569 was administered alone or in combination with focal radiation by oral gavage. Vehicle or compound 569 (3, 6 and 10 mg / kg) was given to mice. Then the tumor received focal irradiation of 10 Gy or was not irradiated (0 Gy, vehicle and 0 Gy+10 mg / kg compound 569) after 45 minutes. Tumors were collected 1 h after radiation. Immunoblotting of lysates from these tumors showed radiation-induced pDNA-PK autophosphorylation and radiation-induced KAP1 (downstream target of ATM) phosphorylation and the dose-dependent inhibition of those phosphorylation events in FADU and MDA231 tumors treated with radiation plus compound 569. At 10 mg / kg, the tumor levels of radiation-induced DNA-PK autophosphorylation and radiation-induced KAP1 phosphorylation were significantly inhibited by approximately 55% and >80%, respectively ( Figure 4 and 5 , Table 2-5). Basal phosphorylation of DNA-PK was also inhibited by compound 569 in tumors.
