Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to novel IL-17 inhibitors, pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds, and their uses. Methods for treating, preventing, and managing inflammatory conditions using said compounds and compositions are also disclosed. Background Technology
[0002] Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is a T-cell-derived pro-inflammatory molecule that can stimulate epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and fibroblasts to produce other inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, including IL-6, IL-8, G-CSF, and MCP-1. The IL-17 cytokine family, including IL-17A through IL-17F, promotes the maintenance of adaptive and innate immunity (Gaffen SL. Structure and signaling in the IL-17 receptor family. Nat Rev Immunol. 2009; 9(8):556–567). Dysregulation of IL-17 expression may lead to inflammatory and autoimmune diseases such as psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis (Li X, Bechara R, Zhao J et al. IL-17 receptor–based signaling and implications for disease. Nat Immunol. 2019;20(12):1594–1602). Therefore, they are promising new targets for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.
[0003] Interleukin-17A (IL-17A) is the most studied member of the IL-17 family. It is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays a key role in immune and autoimmune-related diseases, including psoriasis, asthma, psoriatic arthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis (Tollenaere MAX, Hebsgaard J, Ewald DA, et al. Signaling of multiple interleukin (IL)-17 family cytokines via IL-17 receptor A drives psoriasis-related inflammatory pathways. British Journal of Dermatology. 2021;185(3):585–594; Ostling J, Geest M, Schofield JPR, et al. IL-17–high asthma with features of a psoriasis immunophenotype. Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology). 2019;144(5):1198–1213; Blauvelt A, Chiricozzi A. The immunologic role of IL-17 in psoriasis and psoriaticarthritis pathogenesis. Clin Rev Allergy Immunol. 2018;55(3):379–390; Kirkham BW, Kavanaugh A, Reich K. Interleukin-17A: a unique pathway in immune-mediated diseases psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Immunology. 2014;141(2):133–142.IL-17A forms homodimers or heterodimers with IL-17A or IL-17F and is a major cytokine secreted primarily by Th17 cells. It signals through its membrane-bound receptors IL-17RA and IL-17RC, regulating the IL-17A signaling pathway and triggering various inflammatory and immune responses. Therefore, IL-17A has become a major research topic in the treatment of inflammation-related diseases.
[0004] Currently, three approved monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) – secukinumab, ixekizumab, and brodalumab – are being used in clinical practice as IL-17A inhibitors to treat various immune diseases. However, drawbacks such as non-oral administration, poor tissue penetration, lack of blood-brain barrier penetration, and often long half-lives limit the application scope of monoclonal antibodies.
[0005] In this regard, Leo Pharma A / S and Dice Alpha, Inc. have developed a series of small-molecule IL-17A inhibitors and began Phase I clinical trials in 2021 and 2022, respectively. Eli Lilly has developed a series of potent imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine derivatives for the treatment of certain symptoms of psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, or multiple sclerosis. In 2021, Eli Lilly initiated a Phase I clinical trial for one of these compounds to investigate IL-17A-related diseases. Unfortunately, the clinical trial was discontinued due to hepatotoxicity.
[0006] Therefore, there is still a need to develop small molecule IL-17A inhibitors with improved properties, low toxicity, and high activity, especially IL-17A / A or IL-17A / F inhibitors. Summary of the Invention

Upon stimulation with IL-17A / A, these cells congregated to drive the expression of the luciferase reporter gene. Luciferase signals from cell lysates, representing signaling pathway activation, were measured using the ONE Glo™ luciferase detection system (Promega, catalog number E6120).
[0121] H_IL17A Reporter 293 cells were seeded at a rate of 15,000 cells / well in white culture plate-96 (PerkinElmer, catalog number 6005680) in DMEM medium (Gibco, catalog number 10566016). The DMEM medium was supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (ThermoFisher, catalog number 10091148), 1% penicillin-streptomycin (ThermoFisher, catalog number 15140122), 100 μg / mL zebumycin (Genomeditech, catalog number GM-040407), 150 μg / mL hygromycin (Genemeditech, catalog number GM 040403-1), 1.5 μg / mL puromycin (Genomitech, category number GM 040401-1), and 3 μg / mL puromycin. Genomeditech (Cat No. GM-040404-1) was incubated overnight in a humid incubator at 37°C and 5% CO2.
[0122] The next day, the growth medium was removed, and 100 μL of fresh medium was added. Using acoustic pipetting, 100 nL of the test compound titrated in 100% DMSO was added to each well reserved for the test compound. The remaining wells accepted only an equal volume of DMSO as a carrier control, or secukinumab as a reference for the IL-17A / a inhibitor. The dose range of 0.001 nM to 10000 nM was evaluated. After adding human IL-17A / A protein (Novoprotein, catalog number C774) to a final concentration of 8.32 ng / mL, the system was incubated for 18 hours (18 ± 2 hours) for ONE Glo assay. The percentage of inhibition was calculated using the following equation: PC (positive control) was obtained from cells treated with only IL-17A / A protein and DMSO; NC (negative control) was obtained from cells only.
[0123] The inhibition curves were analyzed using XLFit, and the IC50 values were determined using a 4-parameter nonlinear fitting method to illustrate the neutralization of human IL-17-mediated signal transduction and the activity of IL-17A / A inhibitors.
[0124] Experiment 2: IL-17A / F HEK reporter cell assay The ability of the compound to neutralize IL-17A / F activity was assessed using a cell-based human IL-17 neutralization assay performed essentially as follows. The human IL17A reporter 293 cell line used in this assay (H_IL17A reporter 293, Genomeditech, catalog number GM-C06721) consisted of HEK293 cells stably expressing human IL-17RA, IL-17RC, and the adaptor protein ActI. Upon stimulation with IL-17A / F, these cells conjoined to drive the expression of the luciferase reporter gene. Luciferase signals from cell lysates represented the signaling pathway activation profile and were measured using the ONE Glo™ luciferase detection system (Promega, catalog number E6120).
[0125] H_IL17A Reporter 293 cells were seeded at a rate of 15,000 cells / well in white culture plate-96 (PerkinElmer, catalog number 6005680) in DMEM medium (Gibco, catalog number 10566016). The DMEM medium was supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (ThermoFisher, catalog number 10091148), 1% penicillin-streptomycin (ThermoFisher, catalog number 15140122), 100 μg / mL zebumycin (Genomeditech, catalog number GM-040407), 150 μg / mL hygromycin (Genemeditech, catalog number GM 040403-1), 1.5 μg / mL puromycin (Genomitech, category number GM 040401-1), and 3 μg / mL puromycin. Blasticidin (Genomeditech, catalog number GM-040404-1) was incubated overnight in a humid incubator at 37°C and 5% CO2.
[0126] The next day, the growth medium was removed, and 100 μL of fresh medium was added. Using acoustic pipetting, 100 nL of the test compound titrated in 100% DMSO was added to each well reserved for the test compound. The remaining wells received either an equal volume of DMSO as a carrier control or secukinumab as a reference for the IL-17A / F inhibitor. The dose range of 0.001 nM to 10000 nM was evaluated. After adding human IL-17A and 17F (Novoprotein, catalog number CI60) to a final concentration of 30 ng / mL, the system was incubated for 18 hours (18 ± 2 hours) before a Glo assay. The percentage of inhibition was calculated using the following equation: PC (positive control) was obtained only from cells treated with IL-17A / F; NC (negative control) was obtained only from cells.
[0127] The inhibition curves were analyzed using XLFit, and the IC50 values were determined using a 4-parameter nonlinear fitting method to illustrate the neutralization of human IL-17-mediated signal transduction and the activity of IL-17A / F inhibitors.
[0128] Experiment 3: IL-17F / F HEK reporter cell assay The ability of the compound to neutralize IL-17F / F activity was assessed using a cell-based human IL-17 neutralization assay performed essentially as follows. The human IL-17A reporter 293 cell line used in this assay (H_IL17A reporter 293, Genomeditech, catalog number GM-C06721) consisted of HEK293 cells stably expressing human IL-17RA, IL-17RC, and the adaptor protein ActI. Upon stimulation with IL-17F / F, these cells congregated to drive the expression of the luciferase reporter gene. Luciferase signals from cell lysates represented the signaling pathway activation profile and were measured using the ONE Glo™ luciferase detection system (Promega, catalog number E6120).
[0129] H_IL17A Reporter 293 cells were seeded at a rate of 15,000 cells / well in white culture plate-96 (PerkinElmer, catalog number 6005680) in DMEM medium (Gibco, catalog number 10566016). The DMEM medium was supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (ThermoFisher, catalog number 10091148), 1% penicillin-streptomycin (ThermoFisher, catalog number 15140122), 100 μg / mL zebumycin (Genomeditech, catalog number GM-040407), 150 μg / mL hygromycin (Genemeditech, catalog number GM 040403-1), 1.5 μg / mL puromycin (Genomitech, catalog number GM 040401-1), and 3 μg / mL puromycin. Blasticidin (Genomeditech, catalog number GM-040404-1) was incubated overnight in a humid incubator at 37°C and 5% CO2.
[0130] The next day, the growth medium was removed, and 100 μL of fresh medium was added. Using acoustic pipetting, 100 nL of the test compound titrated in 100% DMSO was added to each well reserved for the test compound. The dose range of 0.001 nM to 10000 nM was evaluated. After adding human IL-17F / F protein (Novoprotein, catalog number CA22) to a final concentration of 0.14 μg / mL, the system was incubated for 18 hours (18 ± 2 hours) for ONE Glo assay. The percentage of inhibition was calculated using the following equation: PC (positive control) was obtained from cells treated only with IL-17F / F protein and DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide); NC (negative control) was obtained from cells only.
[0131] The inhibition curves were analyzed using XLFit, and the IC50 values were determined using a 4-parameter nonlinear fitting method to illustrate the neutralization of human IL-17-mediated signal transduction and the activity of IL-17F / F inhibitors.
[0132] IL-17 is an immune cell-derived cytokine produced after infection with certain microorganisms. After binding to receptors on various cell types found in tissues, such as keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and epithelial cells, it triggers downstream signaling to coordinate ongoing tissue inflammation in order to clear invading pathogens.
[0133] We have developed a series of potential best-in-class oral IL-17 inhibitors, initially for the treatment of psoriasis, with the aim of achieving similar therapeutic effects to the FDA-approved injectable biologic secukinumab. To compare the efficacy of small molecule inhibitors against the IL-17A-specific antibody secukinumab in an in vitro neutralization assay, the relative inhibitory effects of IL-17A / A and IL-17A / F signaling were examined. This assay utilized reporter activity stimulated by either IL-17A / A or IL-17A / F as a surrogate marker of inflammatory activation. Potential efficacy curves were calculated relative to reporter cells activated by either IL-17A / A or IL-17A / F alone. Example 3 and secukinumab showed more potent IC50 values against IL-17A / A at 0.0002 μM and 0.0011 μM, respectively, and stronger IC50 values against similar IL-17A / F at 0.0017 μM and 0.028 μM, respectively. These data are consistent with reported secukinumab data. In summary, this example highlights the blocking effect of small molecule inhibitors on the same biochemical steps as those of anti-IL-17 antibodies. The cellular assay results are summarized in Table 3.
