[0001] Priority statement and related applications This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 627,117, filed January 31, 2024, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 729,148, filed December 6, 2024, the entire contents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference for all purposes. Technical Field

[0002] This invention generally relates to novel compounds and their therapeutic uses. More specifically, the invention provides novel urea derivatives of tricyclic compounds that have been shown to be potent and selective inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase α (PI3Kα). The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds of the invention, and methods for treating diseases and conditions (such as various types of cancer) associated with or related to PI3Kα activity. Background Technology

[0003] Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) is a family of related intracellular signal transduction enzymes that phosphorylate the 3-hydroxyl group of the inositol ring of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns). PI3K has been associated with a highly diverse range of cellular functions, including cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, motility, survival, and intracellular transport. The PI3K signaling pathway is one of the most frequently mutated pathways in human cancer and is also a major factor in many other human diseases. For example, PI3K signaling is associated with allergic contact dermatitis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, asthma, diabetic complications, and acute coronary syndrome.

[0004] The PI3K family is divided into three distinct classes based on its primary structure, regulation, and lipid substrate specificity: Class I, Class II, and Class III. (Kalaany) et al 2009 Nature 458 (7239): 725–31; Leevers et al (1999) Current Opinion in Cell Biology 11 (2): 219–25.) Class I PI3Ks (p110α, p110β, p110δ, and p110γ) are activated by tyrosine kinases or G protein-coupled receptors to produce phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3). Association of effector molecules (such as PDPK1 / AKT) with PIP3 activates downstream signaling pathways.

[0005] Class IA PI3K p110α (PI3Kα) is mutated in various human cancers. Angiogenesis has been shown to selectively require the PI3Kα isoform in the control of endothelial cell migration. The encoding PI3Kα (…PIK3CA Mutations in the PI3Kα gene or upregulation of PI3Kα occur in a variety of human cancers, such as ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, endometrial cancer, gastric cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, small cell and non-small cell lung cancer, thyroid cancer, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), and glioblastoma. In cancers, PI3Kα mutations are typically hotspot point mutations in the helical domain or kinase domain, such as H1047R, E542K, E545K, and H1047X.

[0016] definition Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. General principles of organic chemistry, as well as specific functional groups and reactivity, are described in "Organic Chemistry," Thomas Sorrell, University Science Books, Sausalito: 2006.

[0017] As used in this article, "at least" a specific value is understood to mean that value and all values ​​greater than that value.

[0018] The term "comprising," when used to define compositions and methods, is intended to mean that the composition and method include the listed elements, but does not exclude other elements. The term "consistently composed of," when used to define compositions and methods, should mean that the composition and method include the listed elements and exclude other elements that are of any substantial importance to the composition and method. For example, "consistently composed of" means the application of a explicitly listed pharmacologically active agent and excludes pharmacologically active agents that are not explicitly listed. The term "consistently composed of" does not exclude pharmacologically inactive or inert agents, such as pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, carriers, or diluents. The term "composed of," when used to define compositions and methods, should mean the exclusion of trace amounts of other ingredients and substantial method steps. Embodiments defined by each of these transitional terms are within the scope of this invention.

[0019] Unless otherwise specified or obvious from the context, as used herein, the term “about” is understood to mean within normal tolerances in the art, such as within two standard deviations of the mean. “About” can be understood as within 10%, 9%, 8%, 7%, 6%, 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 1%, 0.5%, 0.1%, 0.05%, or 0.01% of the stated value. All numerical values ​​provided herein may be modified by the term “about” unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0020] In this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a” and “the” include plural references unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0021] As used herein, “administration” or “administering” of the disclosed compounds encompasses the delivery of the compound described herein or its prodrug or other pharmaceutically acceptable form to a subject using any suitable formulation or route of administration discussed herein.

[0022] As used herein, the term "co-administration" refers to the simultaneous presence of two pharmacological agents in a subject's body (e.g., in the blood). These two pharmacologically active agents may be administered simultaneously or sequentially.

[0023] The terms “disease,” “symptom,” and “symptom” are used interchangeably in this document unless otherwise stated.

[0024] As used herein, the terms “effective amount” or “therapeutic effective amount” refer to the amount of the compound or pharmaceutical composition described herein that is sufficient to achieve the intended application (including, but not limited to, the treatment of a disease as illustrated below).

[0025] In some implementations, the amount is sufficient to negatively regulate or inhibit the activity of PI3Kα. In some implementations, the amount is effective in reducing or improving symptoms to stop or reverse the progression of a disease or condition, such as cancer. In some implementations, the amount is effective for: detectably killing or inhibiting the growth or spread of cancer cells; tumor size or number; or providing other measures of cancer level, stage, progression, or severity.

[0026] The therapeutically effective dose can vary depending on the intended application, or the subject being treated and the disease condition, such as the expected biological endpoint, the pharmacokinetics of the compound, the disease being treated, the route of administration, and the patient's weight and age, all of which can be readily determined by those skilled in the art. This dose can be administered as a single dose or according to a regimen. The term also applies to doses that will induce a specific response in target cells (e.g., reduce cell migration). Specific doses will vary based on, for example, the specific compound selected, the subject's species and age / pre-existing health condition or health risk, the dosing regimen followed, the severity of the disease, whether it is administered in combination with other agents, the time of administration, the tissue of administration, and the physical delivery system carrying the compound.

[0027] As used herein, “inhibitor” of “PI3Kα” refers to the compounds of this invention that are capable of negatively regulating or inhibiting all or part of the activity of PI3Kα.

[0028] As used in this article, “PI3Kα-related disease or condition” refers to a disease or condition that is associated with or mediated by PI3Kα, or that has one or more PI3Kα mutations. Examples of PI3Kα-related diseases or conditions include various types of cancer. PI3Kα-related diseases or conditions may also refer to allergic contact dermatitis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, asthma, diabetic complications, or acute coronary syndrome.

[0029] As used herein, the term "contact" refers to bringing together a specified portion in vitro or in vivo. For example, "contacting" cells with a compound disclosed herein includes administering the compound to a subject in need, and, for example, introducing the compound into a sample containing cells or a purified formulation. In some embodiments, cells desired to inhibit PI3Kα activity are contacted with an effective amount of the compound disclosed herein or a pharmaceutically acceptable form thereof to negatively modulate PI3Kα activity. By negatively modulating PI3Kα activity, the methods disclosed herein are designed to inhibit undesirable cell proliferation resulting from enhanced intracellular PI3Kα activity. The cells may be contacted in single or multiple doses depending on a specific treatment regimen to achieve the desired negative modulation of PI3Kα. The ability of a compound to bind PI3Kα in vitro can be monitored using methods known in the art. The inhibitory activity of an exemplary compound in cells can be monitored, for example, by measuring the inhibition of PI3Kα activity using methods known in the art.

[0030] As used herein, the terms “unsubstituted or substituted” and “optionally substituted” are used interchangeably and refer to a given chemical moiety (e.g., alkyl) that can (but is not required to) bond with other substituents (e.g., heteroatoms). For example, an optionally substituted alkyl group can be a fully saturated alkyl chain (i.e., a pure hydrocarbon). Alternatively, the same optionally substituted alkyl group can have substituents other than hydrogen. For example, it can be bonded to a halogen atom, a hydroxyl group, or any other substituent described herein at any position on the chain. Thus, the term “optionally substituted” means that a given chemical moiety has the potential to contain other functional groups, but does not necessarily have any further functional groups. Suitable substituents for optional substitutions of the group include, but are not limited to: halogen, oxo, CN, -COOH, -CH2CN, -O-C1-C6 alkyl, C1-C6 alkyl, -OC1-C6 alkenyl, -OC1-C6 alkynyl, -C1-C6 alkenyl, -C1-C6 alkynyl, -OH, -OP(O)(OH)2, -OC(O)C1-C6 alkyl, -C(O)C1-C6 alkyl, -OC(O)OC1-C6 alkyl, NH2, NH(C1-C6 alkyl), N(C1-C6 alkyl)2, -NHC(O)C1-C6 alkyl, -C(O)NHC1-C6 alkyl, -S(O)2-C1-C6 alkyl, -S(O)NHC1-C6 alkyl and S(O)N(C1-C6 alkyl)2.

In one embodiment, the "pharmaceutically acceptable form" includes, but is not limited to, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, esters, isomers, prodrugs, and isotopically labeled derivatives of the disclosed compounds. In some embodiments, the "pharmaceutical acceptable form" includes, but is not limited to, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, esters, stereoisomers, prodrugs, and isotopically labeled derivatives of the disclosed compounds.

[0032] In some implementations, the pharmaceutically acceptable form is a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to those salts that, within reasonable medical judgment, are suitable for contact with a subject's tissues without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic reactions, etc., and that are proportionate to a reasonable benefit / risk ratio. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are well known in the art. For example, Berge et al. in J. Pharmaceutical Sciences Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are described in detail in (1977) 66:1-19. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds provided herein include those 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 other methods used in the art (such as ion exchange). Other pharmaceutically acceptable salts include adipate, alginate, ascorbate, aspartate, benzenesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, benzoate, hydrogen sulfate, borate, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, citrate, cyclopentanepropionate, disglucuronate, dodecyl sulfate, ethanesulfonate, formate, fumarate, glucono-heptahydrate, glyceryl phosphate, gluconate, hemisulfate, heptahydrate, hexanoate, hydroiodate, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonate, 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. In some implementations, the organic acids from which salts can be derived include, for example, acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, lactic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid, etc.

[0033] Salts can be prepared in situ during the isolation and purification of the disclosed compounds, or separately, such as by reacting the free base or free acid of the parent compound with a suitable base or acid, respectively. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts derived from suitable bases include alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts, ammonium salts, and N2 salts. + (C 1-4 Alkyl)4 salts. Representative alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts include sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, aluminum, etc. Further pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, where appropriate, non-toxic ammonium, quaternary ammonium, and amine cations formed using counterions (such as halides, hydroxides, carboxylates, sulfates, phosphates, nitrates, lower alkyl sulfonates, and aryl sulfonates). Organic bases from which salts can be derived include, for example, primary, secondary, and tertiary amines, substituted amines (including naturally occurring substituted amines), cyclic amines, basic ion exchange resins, etc., such as isopropylamine, trimethylamine, diethylamine, triethylamine, tripropylamine, and ethanolamine. In some embodiments, pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts may be selected from ammonium, potassium, sodium, calcium, and magnesium salts.

[0034] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable form is a pharmaceutically acceptable ester. As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable ester" refers to an ester that hydrolyzes in vivo and includes those esters that readily decompose in the human body to leave behind a parent compound or its salts. Such esters act as prodrugs as defined herein. Pharmaceutically acceptable esters include, but are not limited to, alkyl esters, alkenyl esters, alkynyl esters, aryl esters, aralkyl esters, and cycloalkyl esters of acidic groups (including, but not limited to, carboxylic acids, phosphoric acids, phosphonic acids, sulfinic acids, sulfonic acids, and boric acids). Examples of esters include formate esters, acetate esters, propionate esters, butyrate esters, acrylate esters, and ethyl succinate esters. The esters may be formed from the hydroxyl or carboxylic acid groups of the parent compound.

[0035] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable form is a "solvent" (e.g., a hydrate). As used herein, the term "solvent" refers to a compound that further comprises a stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric solvent bound by non-covalent intermolecular forces. A solvate can be the disclosed compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. When the solvent is water, the solvate is a "hydrate". Pharmaceutically acceptable solvates and hydrates are, for example, complexes comprising, for example, 1 to about 100, or 1 to about 10, or 1 to about 2, about 3, or about 4 solvent or water molecules. It should be understood that the term "compound" as used herein encompasses the compound and its solvates, as well as mixtures thereof.

[0036] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable form is a prodrug. As used herein, the term "prodrug" refers to a compound that is converted in vivo to produce the disclosed compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable form of the compound. A prodrug may be inactive when administered to a subject but is converted in vivo to an active compound, for example, by hydrolysis (e.g., hydrolysis in the blood). In some cases, a prodrug has improved physical and / or delivery properties relative to the parent compound. A prodrug may improve the bioavailability of the compound when administered to a subject (e.g., by allowing enhanced absorption into the bloodstream after oral administration) or enhance delivery to a target biological compartment (e.g., the brain or lymphatic system) relative to the parent compound. Exemplary prodrugs include derivatives of the disclosed compound that have enhanced water solubility relative to the parent compound or are actively transported via the intestinal membrane.

[0037] Prodrug compounds often offer advantages in terms of solubility, tissue compatibility, or delayed release in mammalian organisms (see, for example, Bundgard, H., Design of Prodrugs (1985), pp. 7-9, 21-24 (Elsevier, Amsterdam). For a discussion of prodrugs, see Higuchi, T., et al., "Pro-drugs as Novel Delivery Systems," A.C.S. Symposium Series, Vol. 14, and Bioreversible Carriers in Drug Design, Ed. Edward B. Roche, American Pharmaceutical Association and Pergamon Press, 1987. Both of these references are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Exemplary advantages of prodrugs may include, but are not limited to, their physical properties, such as enhanced water solubility at physiological pH for parenteral administration compared to the parent compound, or their ability to enhance absorption from the digestive tract, or their ability to enhance drug stability during long-term storage.

[0038] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, carrier, or diluent" refers to a pharmaceutically acceptable material, composition, or medium, such as a liquid or solid filler, diluent, excipient, solvent, or encapsulating material, that participates in carrying or transporting a target drug agent from one organ or body site to another. Each carrier must be "acceptable," meaning it is compatible with other components of the formulation and harmless to the patient. Some examples of materials that can be used as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include: sugars, such as lactose, glucose, and sucrose; starches, such as corn starch and potato starch; cellulose and its derivatives, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, and cellulose acetate; tragacanth gum powder; malt; gelatin; talc; excipients, such as cocoa butter and suppository waxes; oils, such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil, and soybean oil; glycols, such as propylene glycol; polyols, such as glycerol, sorbitol, mannitol, and polyethylene glycol; esters, such as ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; agar; buffers, such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; alginic acid; pyrogen-free water; isotonic saline; Ringer's solution; ethanol; phosphate buffer solutions; and other non-toxic and compatible substances used in pharmaceutical formulations. Wetting agents, emulsifiers and lubricants, such as sodium dodecyl sulfate, magnesium stearate and polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide copolymers, as well as colorants, release agents, coating agents, sweeteners, flavorings and aromas, preservatives and antioxidants may also be present in the composition.

[0039] As used herein, the term “subject” refers to any animal (e.g., mammal), including but not limited to humans, non-human primates, rodents, etc., that will be the recipient of a particular treatment. Generally, the terms “subject” and “patient” are used interchangeably herein to refer to human subjects.

[0040] In some embodiments, the subject has experienced and / or exhibited at least one symptom of a disease or condition to be treated with the compounds disclosed herein and / or the methods disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the subject has been identified or diagnosed with cancer having one or more PI3Kα mutations. In some embodiments, the subject has PI3Kα mutation-positive cancer. In some embodiments, the subject is suspected of having PI3Kα gene-related cancer.

[0041] In some embodiments of any of the methods or uses described herein, a sample from a subject (e.g., a biological sample or a biopsy sample (e.g., a paraffin-embedded biopsy sample)) is used by assay to determine whether the subject has one or more PI3Kα mutations. A variety of techniques may be employed, such as next-generation sequencing, immunohistochemistry, fluorescence microscopy, fragmentation FISH analysis, Southern blotting, Western blotting, FACS analysis, Northern blotting, and PCR-based amplification (e.g., RT-PCR and quantitative real-time RT-PCR).

[0042] As used herein, the term "treatment" refers to a method of reducing, delaying, or improving a disease or condition before or after its onset. Treatment may target one or more effects or symptoms of the disease and / or the underlying pathology. Treatment aims to achieve a beneficial or desired outcome, including but not limited to therapeutic and / or preventative benefits. A therapeutic benefit means the eradication or improvement of the underlying condition being treated. Furthermore, a therapeutic benefit is achieved when one or more physiological symptoms associated with the underlying condition are eradicated or improved, resulting in an observed improvement in the patient, even though the patient may still have the underlying condition. For preventative benefits, pharmaceutical compounds and / or compositions may be administered to patients at risk of developing a specific disease, or to patients reporting one or more physiological symptoms of the disease, even if the disease may not yet be diagnosed. Treatment can be any reduction and can be, but is not limited to, the complete elimination of the disease or its symptoms. Such reduction or prevention is at least 5%, 10%, 20%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 80%, 90%, 95%, or 100% compared to a comparable untreated control, as measured by any standard technique.

[0043] As used herein, the term "therapeutic effect" refers to the therapeutic and / or preventive benefits as described herein. Preventive effects include delaying or eliminating the onset of a disease or symptom, delaying or eliminating the onset of symptoms of a disease or symptom, slowing, stopping, or reversing the progression of a disease or symptom, or any combination thereof.

[0044] After preparation, the compounds of the present invention are preferably separated and purified to obtain a composition containing an amount equal to or greater than 95% (“substantially pure”) by weight, which is then used or formulated as described herein. In some embodiments, the compounds of the present invention have a purity greater than 99%.

[0045] This document also considers solvates and polymorphs of the compounds of the present invention. Solvates of the compounds of the present invention include, for example, hydrates.

[0046] As used herein, the terms "isolated" or "substantially isolated" molecules (such as polypeptides or polynucleotides) refer to molecules that have been manipulated to be present at a higher concentration than naturally occurring or have been removed from their natural environment. For example, a target antibody is isolated, purified, substantially isolated, or substantially purified when at least 10%, or 20%, or 40%, or 50%, or 70%, of the non-target antibody material associated with the target antibody in its natural state has been removed. For example, polynucleotides or polypeptides naturally present in living animals are not "isolated," but the same polynucleotides or polypeptides isolated from materials coexisting in their natural state are "isolated." Furthermore, recombinant DNA molecules contained in a vector are considered isolated for the purposes of this invention. Isolated RNA molecules include in vivo or in vitro RNA replication products of DNA and RNA molecules. Isolated nucleic acid molecules further include synthetically produced molecules. Additionally, vector molecules contained in recombinant host cells are also isolated. Therefore, not all "isolated" molecules must be "purified."

[0047] As used herein, the term "purified," when used to refer to a molecule, means that the concentration of the purified molecule has been increased relative to the molecules associated with it in its natural environment or in the environment in which it was produced, discovered, or synthesized. Naturally associated molecules include proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and sugars, but generally do not include water, buffers, and reagents added to maintain the integrity of the purified molecule or to facilitate its purification. According to this definition, the purity of a substance can be 5% or higher, 10% or higher, 20% or higher, 30% or higher, 40% or higher, 50% or higher, 60% or higher, 70% or higher, 80% or higher, 90% or higher, 95% or higher, 98% or higher, 99% or higher, or 100% when considered relative to its contaminants.

[0048] The definitions of specific functional groups and chemical terms are described in more detail below. When value ranges are listed, the aim is to cover every value within the range and every subrange. For example, “C 1-4 "Alkyl" is intended to encompass C1, C2, C3, C4, C 1-3 C 1-2 C 2-4 C 3-4 and C 2-3 alkyl.

[0049] As used herein, the term “aliphatic” or “aliphatic group” refers to a straight or branched, substituted or unsubstituted, fully saturated or containing one or more unsaturated hydrocarbon chains, or a fully saturated or containing one or more unsaturated monocyclic or bicyclic hydrocarbon, but not aromatic.

[0050] As used herein, the term "alkyl" refers to a straight-chain or branched hydrocarbon chain group consisting only of carbon and hydrogen atoms, which contains no unsaturated bonds and has one to ten carbon atoms (e.g., C10, C20, C30, C40, C50, C60, C7 ... 1-10 Alkyl). Whenever it appears herein, numerical ranges such as “1 to 10” refer to each integer within the given range; for example, “1 to 10 carbon atoms” means that an alkyl group can consist of and include 10 carbon atoms, up to and including 10 carbon atoms, although this definition also covers the occurrence of the term “alkyl” when no numerical range is specified.

[0158] Certain compounds of this invention may exist in specific geometric or stereoisomeric forms. This invention covers all such compounds, including cis and trans isomers, R- and S-enantiomers, diastereomers, (D)-isomers, (L)-isomers, racemic mixtures thereof, and other mixtures thereof, all of which fall within the scope of this invention. Additional asymmetric carbon atoms may also be present in the substituents (such as alkyl groups). All such isomers and mixtures thereof are intended to be included in this invention.

[0159] According to the present invention, mixtures of isomers containing any of a variety of isomer ratios can be used.

Alternatively, in the case where the molecule contains a basic functional group (such as an amino group) or an acidic functional group (such as a carboxyl group), a diastereomer salt can be formed with a suitable optically active acid or base, and the resulting diastereomer can then be resolved by fractional crystallization or chromatographic methods known in the art, followed by recovery of the pure enantiomer.

[0161] Isotope-labeled compounds are also within the scope of this disclosure. As used herein, "isotope-labeled compound" means a compound of this disclosure, including its pharmaceutically acceptable salts and prodrugs (each as described herein), wherein one or more atoms are replaced by atoms with atomic masses or mass numbers different from those normally found in nature. Examples of isotopes that may be incorporated into compounds of this disclosure include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, fluorine, and chlorine, such as... 2 H, 3 H, 13 C 14 C 15 N、 18 O、 17 O、 31 P, 32 P, 35 S, 18 F and 36 Cl.

Tritium ( 3 H) and carbon-14 ( 14 Compounds labeled with C are particularly preferred due to their ease of preparation and detectability. Furthermore, compounds labeled with heavier isotopes (such as deuterium) are also preferred. 2H)) substitution may offer certain therapeutic advantages due to greater metabolic stability, such as prolonged in vivo half-life or reduced dose requirements, and may therefore be preferred in some cases. The isotopically labeled compounds disclosed herein, including their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, esters, and prodrugs, can be prepared by any means known in the art.

[0163] In addition, hydrogen (of average abundance) 1 H) Substitution with a heavier isotope, such as deuterium, can provide certain therapeutic advantages, for example, resulting in drugs with improved efficacy, safety, and / or tolerability due to improved absorption, distribution, metabolism, and / or excretion (ADME) properties. 13 C replaces the usual abundance 12 C may also benefit. (See WO 2007 / 005643, WO2007 / 005644, WO 2007 / 016361 and WO 2007 / 016431.) Stereoisomers (e.g., cis and trans isomers) and all optical isomers (e.g., R and S enantiomers) of the compounds disclosed herein, as well as racemic mixtures, diastereomer mixtures and other mixtures of such isomers, are all within the scope of this disclosure.

[0164] After preparation, the compounds of the present invention are preferably separated and purified to obtain a composition containing an amount equal to or greater than 95% (“substantially pure”) by weight, which is then used or formulated as described herein. In some embodiments, the compounds of the present invention have a purity greater than 99%.

[0165] This document also considers solvates and polymorphs of the compounds of the present invention. Solvates of the compounds of the present invention include, for example, hydrates.

[0166] It can be administered via any suitable route, such as parenteral, intravenous, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous, intraperitoneal, rectal, or oral.

[0167] Compositions for parenteral injection comprise pharmaceutically acceptable sterile aqueous or non-aqueous solutions, dispersants, suspensions, or emulsions, as well as sterile powders reconstituted into sterile injectable solutions or dispersants immediately before use. Examples of suitable aqueous and non-aqueous carriers, diluents, solvents, or mediators include water, ethanol, polyols (such as glycerol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, etc.), carboxymethyl cellulose and suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils (such as olive oil), and injectable organic esters (such as ethyl oleate). Appropriate flowability can be maintained, for example, by using coating materials (such as lecithin), in the case of dispersants by maintaining the desired particle size, and by using surfactants.

[0168] These compositions may also contain adjuvants such as preservatives, wetting agents, emulsifiers, and dispersants. Prevention of microbial action can be ensured by including various antimicrobial and antifungal agents (e.g., parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, sorbic acid, etc.). Isotonic agents, such as sugars and sodium chloride, may also be desired. Absorption of injectable drug forms can be prolonged by including agents that delay absorption (such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin).

[0184] Using this general route I, different R are introduced in step G. 1 , and R 2 This is introduced by an SNAr reaction with different amines in an earlier step D. In some cases, product Io is obtained directly from intermediate Il in step I-1. In other cases, intermediate Io is generated in a two-step sequence, firstly by forming In in step I-2, for example, when step I-2 is carried out under more diluted conditions, In is isolated, and then cyclized under basic conditions in step J to form Io.

[0185] General route II for the synthesis of intermediate Ik:

[0186] Using this general route II, the protection base (PG) is used as R. 2 In the earlier step D, different R are introduced. 1 And in subsequent step F, R is introduced after PG deprotection. 2 .
