Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the invention patent application filed on July 13, 2017, with application number 201780057760.8 and invention title "Inhibitor of Cyclin-dependent Kinase 7 (CDK7)".

[0002] Priority requirements This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 361,852, filed July 13, 2016, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Background Technology

[0003] Members of the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) family play crucial regulatory roles in proliferation. CDK7, unique among mammalian CDKs, possesses integrated kinase activity, regulating cell cycle and transcription. In the cytosol, CDK7 exists as a heterotrimeric complex and is believed to act as CDK1 / 2 activated kinase (CAK), whereby phosphorylation of conserved residues in CDK1 / 2 is essential for fully catalytic CDK activity and cell cycle progression. In the nucleus, CDK7 forms the kinase core of the RNA polymerase (RNAP)II general transcription factor complex and is responsible for phosphorylating the C-terminal domain (CTD) of RNAPII, a necessary step in gene transcription initiation. These two functions of CDK7—CAK and CTD phosphorylation—together support key aspects of cell proliferation, cell cycle, and transcription.

[0004] Disruption of RNAP II CTD phosphorylation has been shown to preferentially affect short-lived proteins, including those of the anti-apoptotic BCL-2 family. Cancer cells have demonstrated the ability to circumvent pro-cell death signaling by upregulating BCL2 family members. Therefore, inhibition of human CDK7 kinase activity may lead to antiproliferative activity.

[0005] The high sequence and structural similarity of kinase domains among CDK family members has hindered the discovery of selective CDK7 inhibitors. Therefore, there is a need to discover and develop selective CDK7 inhibitors. Such CDK7 inhibitors hold promise as therapeutic agents for CLL and other cancers. Summary of the Invention

[0044] Other definitions The following definitions are the more general terms used throughout this application: The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" means a salt that, to the extent of reasonable medical judgment, is suitable for use in contact with tissues of humans and lower animals without undue toxicity, irritation, allergic reactions, etc., and is commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are well known in the art. For example, Berge et al., in J. Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1977, 66, 1-19, describe pharmaceutically acceptable salts in detail, which are incorporated herein by reference. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of the present invention include salts derived from suitable inorganic and organic acids and bases. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic acid addition salts are salts formed by amino groups with inorganic acids (such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, and perchloric acid) or with organic acids (such as acetic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, succinic acid, or malonic acid), or salts formed by using other methods known in the art (e.g., ion exchange). Other pharmaceutically acceptable salts include adipate, alginate, ascorbate, aspartate, benzenesulfonate, benzoate, hydrogen sulfate, borate, butyrate, camphorate, camphor sulfonate, citrate, cyclopentanepropionate, disglucuronate, dodecyl sulfate, ethanesulfonate, formate, fumarate, glucono-heptahydrate, glyceryl phosphate, gluconate, hemisulfate, heptahydrate, hexanoate, hydroiodide, 2-hydroxy-ethanesulfonate, lactobionate, lactate, laurate, lauryl sulfate, malate, maleate, malonate, methanesulfonate, 2-naphthalenesulfonate, nicotinate, nitrate, oleate, oxalate, palmitate, dihydroxynaphthalate, pectate, persulfate, 3-phenylpropionate, phosphate, picrate, neopentanoate, propionate, stearate, succinate, sulfate, tartrate, thiocyanate, p-toluenesulfonate, undecanoate, valerate, etc. Salts derived from suitable bases include alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts, ammonium salts, and N salts. + (C 1-4 Alkyl)4 salts. Representative alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts include sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium salts. Where appropriate, other pharmaceutically acceptable salts include non-toxic ammonium, quaternary ammonium, and amine cations formed using balancing ions such as halides, hydroxides, carboxylates, sulfates, phosphates, nitrates, lower alkyl sulfonates, and aryl sulfonates.

[0045] The term "solvent" refers to a compound that typically associates with a solvent phase via a solvent decomposition reaction. This physical association can include hydrogen bonding. Common solvents include water, methanol, ethanol, acetic acid, DMSO, THF, diethyl ether, etc. Compounds of formula (I) can be prepared, for example, in crystalline form and can be solvated. Suitable solvates include pharmaceutically acceptable solvates and further include stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric solvates. In some cases, the solvate will be separable, for example, when one or more solvent molecules are incorporated into the lattice of a crystalline solid. "Solvent" encompasses both solution phases and separable solvates. Representative solvates include hydrates, ethanolates, and methanolates.

[0046] The term "hydrate" refers to a compound that associates with water. Typically, the number of water molecules contained in a hydrate of a compound is in a certain ratio to the number of compound molecules in the hydrate. Therefore, a hydrate of a compound can be, for example, formed by the general chemical formula R. x H2O represents R, where R is a compound and x is a number greater than 0. The given compound can form more than one type of hydrate, including, for example, monohydrate (x is 1), lower hydrate (x is a number greater than 0 and less than 1, for example, hemihydrate (R)). 0.5 H2O)) and polyhydrates (x is a number greater than 1, for example, dihydrates (R 2 H2O) and hexahydrate (R 6 H2O)).

[0047] The term "tautomer" refers to compounds that have specific compound structures that are interchangeable in form and vary in terms of hydrogen atom and electron shifts. Thus, the two structures can be in equilibrium through the movement of π electrons and atoms (usually H). For example, enols and ketones are tautomers because they can be rapidly interconverted by treatment with an acid or base. Another example of tautomerism is the acid- and nitro-forms of phenylnitromethane, which are similarly formed by treatment with an acid or base.

[0048] Tautomerism can be associated with obtaining the optimal chemical reactivity and biological activity of compounds of interest.

[0049] It should also be understood that compounds with the same molecular formula but different in properties, in the bonding sequence of their atoms, or in the spatial arrangement of their atoms are called "isomers". Isomers whose atoms are different in spatial arrangement are called "stereoisomers".

[0050] Stereoisomers that are not mirror images of each other are called "diastereomers," and stereoisomers that are non-overlapping mirror images of each other are called "enantiomers." When a compound has an asymmetry center, for example, it is bonded to four different groups, a pair of enantiomers is possible. Enantiomers are characterized by the absolute configuration of their asymmetry center and are described and designated as dextrorotatory or levorotatory (i.e., as (+) or (-)- isomers, respectively) by the Cahn and Prelog R- and S-sorting rules, or by the method of rotating the plane of polarized light. Chiral compounds can exist as single enantiomers or mixtures thereof. A mixture containing enantiomers in equal proportions is called a "racemic mixture."

[0051] The “subject” to which the drug is administered is expected to include, but is not limited to, humans (i.e., males or females of any age group, e.g., pediatric subjects (e.g., infants, children, adolescents) or adult subjects (e.g., young adults, middle-aged adults, or elderly adults)) and / or other non-human animals, such as mammals (e.g., primates (e.g., macaques, rhesus monkeys); commercially relevant mammals (e.g., cattle, pigs, horses, sheep, goats, cats, and / or dogs) and birds (e.g., commercially relevant birds such as chickens, ducks, geese, and / or turkeys). In some embodiments, the animal is a mammal. The animal may be male or female and at any developmental stage. The non-human animal may be a transgenic animal.

[0052] As used herein, the terms “give”, “administer”, or “apply” mean to implant, absorb, ingest, inject, inhale, or otherwise introduce the compound of the invention or a pharmaceutical composition thereof.

[0053] As described herein, the terms "treatment," "treat," and "treating" refer to reversing, alleviating, delaying the onset of a pathological state described herein, or inhibiting the progression of a pathological state (e.g., disease, disorder, or condition, or one or more of its signs or symptoms). In some embodiments, "treatment" requires that signs or symptoms of a disease or condition have been developed or observed. In other embodiments, treatment may be given even when there are no signs or symptoms of a disease or condition. For example, treatment may be given to a susceptible individual before the onset of symptoms (e.g., based on a history of symptoms and / or based on genetic or other susceptibility factors). Treatment may also continue after symptoms have subsided, for example, to delay or prevent recurrence.

[0054] The terms “symptom”, “disease” and “disorder” used in this application are used interchangeably.

[0055] The “effective amount” of a compound of formula (I) refers to an amount sufficient to elicit the expected biological response, i.e., to treat the condition. As those skilled in the art will appreciate, the effective amount of a compound of formula (I) can vary depending on factors such as the expected biological endpoint, the pharmacokinetics of the compound, the condition being treated, the administration method, and the age and health status of the subject. Effective amounts include therapeutically effective amounts and preventatively effective amounts. For example, in cancer treatment, an effective amount of the compound of the present invention can reduce tumor burden or stop tumor growth or spread.

[0056] The "therapeuticly effective amount" of a compound of formula (I) refers to an amount sufficient to provide therapeutic benefit in treating a condition, delaying or minimizing one or more symptoms associated with said condition. In some embodiments, a therapeutically effective amount is an amount sufficient to provide therapeutic benefit in treating a condition or to minimize one or more symptoms associated with the condition. A therapeutically effective amount of a compound means an amount of a therapeutic agent used alone or in combination with other treatment regimens that is capable of providing therapeutic benefit in treating a condition. The term "therapeuticly effective amount" includes amounts that improve overall treatment, reduce or avoid symptoms or causes of disease, or enhance the therapeutic effect of another therapeutic agent.

[0057] The “preventive effective amount” of a compound of formula (I) refers to an amount sufficient to prevent the disease, prevent one or more symptoms associated with said disease, or prevent recurrence of said disease. The preventive effective amount of a compound means the amount used as a treatment alone or in combination with other drugs, and provides preventive benefit in disease prevention. The term “preventive effective amount” may also include an amount that improves overall prevention or enhances the preventive effect of another preventive agent.

[0058] "Proliferative disorders" are diseases caused by abnormal growth or expansion due to cell proliferation (Walker, Cambridge Dictionary of Biology; Cambridge University Press: Cambridge, UK, 1990). Proliferative disorders can be associated with: 1) pathological proliferation of normal quiescent cells; 2) pathological migration of cells from their normal locations (e.g., metastasis of tumor cells); 3) pathological expression of proteolytic enzymes (e.g., matrix metalloproteinases (e.g., collagenase, gelatinase, and elastase)); or 4) pathological angiogenesis in proliferative retinopathy and tumor metastasis. Exemplary proliferative disorders include cancer (i.e., "malignant tumors"), benign tumors, angiogenesis, inflammatory diseases, autoinflammatory diseases, and autoimmune diseases.

[0059] The terms “neoplasm” and “tumor” are used interchangeably herein and refer to an abnormal mass of tissue that grows beyond and out of sync with the growth of normal tissue. A neoplasm or tumor can be “benign” or “malignant”, depending on the following characteristics: degree of cell differentiation (including morphology and function), growth rate, local invasion, and metastasis. A “benign tumor” is typically well-differentiated, grows significantly slower than a malignant tumor, and remains confined to its site of origin. Furthermore, a benign tumor does not have the ability to infiltrate, invade, or metastasize to distant sites. Exemplary benign tumors include, but are not limited to, lipomas, chondromas, adenomas, alopecia areata, senile hemangiomas, seborrheic keratosis, lentigines, and sebaceous hyperplasia. In some cases, some “benign” tumors may later develop into malignant tumors, possibly due to additional genetic changes in a subset of tumor cells, and these tumors are referred to as “pre-malignant neoplasms.” An exemplary pre-malignant neoplasm is a teratoma. In contrast, "malignant tumors" are typically poorly differentiated (anaplasia) and exhibit remarkably rapid growth, accompanied by progressive infiltration, invasion, and destruction of surrounding tissues. Furthermore, malignant tumors often have the ability to metastasize to distant locations.

[0061] The term "angiogenesis" refers to the formation and growth of new blood vessels. Normal angiogenesis occurs in healthy individuals to facilitate wound healing and restore blood flow to tissues after injury. The healthy body controls angiogenesis through various mechanisms, including angiogenesis-stimulating factors and angiogenesis-inhibiting factors. Many disease conditions, such as cancer, diabetic blindness, age-related macular degeneration, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriasis, are characterized by abnormal (i.e., increased or excessive) angiogenesis. Abnormal angiogenesis refers to angiogenesis that is larger than normal in the body, particularly in adults, and is unrelated to normal angiogenesis (such as menstruation or wound healing). Abnormal angiogenesis can provide new blood vessels to supply diseased tissue and / or destroy normal tissue, and in the case of cancer, new blood vessels may allow tumor cells to escape into the circulation and remain in other organs (tumor metastasis).

[0062] As described herein, the term "inflammatory disease" refers to a disease caused, resulting from, or causing inflammation. The term "inflammatory disease" can also refer to a dysregulated inflammatory response that leads to an exaggerated reaction by macrophages, granulocytes, and / or T-lymphocytes, resulting in abnormal tissue damage and / or cell death. Inflammatory diseases can be acute or chronic and can be caused by infectious or non-infectious factors. Inflammatory diseases include, but are not limited to, atherosclerosis, arteriosclerosis, autoimmune disorders, multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR), gouty arthritis, degenerative arthritis, tendinitis, bursitis, psoriasis, cystic fibrosis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory arthritis, Sjögren's syndrome, giant cell arteritis, progressive systemic sclerosis (scleroderma), ankylosing spondylitis, polymyositis, dermatomyositis, pemphigus, bullous pemphigoid, diabetes (e.g., type I), myasthenia gravis, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Graves' disease, Goodpasser's disease, and mixed connective tissue disease.

[0063] As described in this article, "autoimmune disease" refers to a disease caused by an inappropriate immune response of the subject's body to substances and tissues normally present in said body. In other words, the immune system mistakes a part of the body for a pathogen and attacks its own cells. This can be limited to a specific organ (e.g., in autoimmune thyroiditis) or involve specific tissues in different locations (e.g., Goodpasseur disease, which may affect the basement membrane of the lungs and kidneys). Treatment for autoimmune diseases is usually with immunosuppression, such as drugs that reduce the immune response. Exemplary autoimmune diseases include, but are not limited to, glomerulonephritis, Goodpasser syndrome, necrotizing vasculitis, lymphadenitis, periarteritis nodosa, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, ulcerative colitis, systemic sclerosis, dermatomyositis / polymyositis, antiphospholipid antibody syndrome, scleroderma, pemphigus vulgaris, ANCA-associated vasculitis (e.g., Wegener's granulomatosis, microscopic polyangiitis), uveitis, Sjögren's syndrome, Crohn's disease, Wright's syndrome, ankylosing spondylitis, Lyme arthritis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, and cardiomyopathy.

[0064] The term "autoinflammatory disease" refers to a class of diseases similar to, but distinct from, autoimmune diseases. Autoinflammatory diseases and autoimmune diseases share common characteristics because both groups are caused by the immune system attacking the subject's own tissues, resulting in increased inflammation. In autoinflammatory diseases, the subject's innate immune system initiates inflammation for unknown reasons. The innate immune system reacts even if it has never encountered autoantibodies or antigens in the subject. Autoinflammatory diseases are characterized by severe inflammatory episodes, causing symptoms such as fever, rash, or joint swelling. These diseases also carry the risk of amyloidosis, a potentially fatal accumulation of blood proteins in vital organs. Autoinflammatory diseases include, but are not limited to, familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID), tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS), interleukin-1 receptor antagonist deficiency (DIRA), and Behçet's disease.

[0065] The term "biological sample" refers to any sample, including tissue samples (such as tissue sections and needle biopsies); cell samples (such as cytological smears (such as Pap smears or blood smears) or samples of cells obtained through microdissection); samples of whole organisms (such as samples of yeast or bacteria); or cell fractions, fragments, or organelles (such as those obtained by lysing cells and separating their components by centrifugation or other means). Other examples of biological samples include blood, serum, urine, semen, feces, cerebrospinal fluid, interstitial fluid, mucus, tears, sweat, pus, biopsy tissue (such as those obtained through surgical or needle biopsy), nipple aspiration fluid, breast milk, vaginal fluid, saliva, swabs (such as buccal swabs), or any substance containing biomolecules derived from the first biological sample. Biological samples also include those of transgenic organisms, such as transgenic oocytes, sperm cells, blastocysts, embryos, fetuses, donor cells, or cell nuclei.
