AI Technical Summary
CDK9 is difficult to therapeutically inhibit due to its similar structure with other kinases, leading to challenges in selective inhibition, and existing inhibitors face issues with off- and on-target toxicity and resistance mechanisms, particularly in cancer treatment.
Development of chimeric degraders that conjugate a CDK9 binding moiety with an E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety, such as pomalidomide, to induce ubiquitination and degradation of CDK9, utilizing PROTAC technology to promote selective degradation of CDK9 over other proteins like Ikaros Family Zinc Finger proteins.
The approach achieves potent and selective degradation of CDK9, effectively downregulating MYC levels, offering a robust attenuation of deregulated transcription and showing promise in treating aggressive and metastatic cancers, particularly MYC-driven cancers with reduced resistance and toxicity.

CHIMERIC DEGRADERS OF CYCLIN-DEPENDENT KINASE 9 AND USES THEREOFRELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) to U.S. Provisional Application, U.S.S.N. 63 / 486,360, filed February 22, 2023, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.STATEMENT OF GOVERNMENT SUPPORT
[0002] This invention was made with government support under CHE- 1845464 awarded by the National Science Foundation. The government has certain rights in the invention.BACKGROUND
[0003] The serine / threonine kinase cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9) facilitates the phosphorylation of specific protein substrates and thereby modulates their stability and / or activation state. CDK9 and its regulatory cyclin T1 assemble the functional positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb) complex, which phosphorylates the C-terminal domain (CTD) of the largest domain of the multiprotein complex RNA polymerase II (Pol II) RPB1 / POLR2A. In turn, Pol II transitions from abortive to productive elongation. Therefore, CDK9 is heavily involved in the regulation of transcription. Other CDK9 / cyclin T1 phosphorylation targets include EP300, MYODI, RPB1 / POLR2A, and AR as well as the negative elongation factors DSIF and NELF.
[0004] Due to its central role transcriptional regulation, which is frequently dysregulated in cancer, CDK9 has become the target of several drug development efforts. Dysregulation of CDK9 has been observed in a number of solid tumors, including prostate cancer, neuroblastoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and lymphoma. Moreover, osteosarcoma patients with high CDK9 tumor-expression levels have significantly shorter survival than patients with low CDK9 expression. CDK9 pathway dysregulation has likewise been observed in liquid tumors, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Even though several CDK9 inhibitors are available, CDK9 is difficult to therapeutically inhibit with small molecules since the structure of its catalytic ATP-binding cleft is similar to many other kinases. Therefore, selective inhibition of CDK9 is challenging.
[0005] MYC gene expression is an important hallmark of stimulated signaling pathways that promote cell proliferation. Deregulation of MYC expression resulting from genomicamplification or increased copy number of the gene, among a host of other genomic alterations, is a key driver in cancer development and progression. Thus, the suppression of MYC transcription and downstream programs has been a long-standing goal in therapeutics discovery for cancer.
[0006] CDK9 is crucial for the upstream and downstream regulation of MYC. Moreover, CDK9’s influence on MYC dynamics extends to the protein level as well. CDK9 phosphorylation of MYC at serine 62 protects the oncoprotein from degradation. Thus, MYC genomic amplifications induce an increased dependence on CDK9 which then becomes critical for the maintenance of MYC addicted tumor state. There have been more than 20 CDK9 inhibitors tested in clinical trials against both hematologic and solid tumors. However, a combination of off- and on-target toxicity and the lack of objective response has restricted progress to FDA approval for these agents. Sustained inhibition of CDK9 can induce a compensatory increase in MYC level. This mechanism of resistance is driven by the bromodomain protein BRD4 mediated activation of inactive cellular CDK9 and channeling of available CDK9 to the MYC promoter.
[0007] Recently, a new therapeutic strategy to reduce and / or eliminate proteins associated with certain pathological states, PROTAC (proteolysis targeting chimeras; e.g., see U.S. Patent Application, U.S.S.N. 14 / 792,414, filed July 6, 2015), was developed. PROTACs are heterobifunctional molecules containing two small molecule binding moieties, joined together by a linker. One of the small molecule ligands is designed to bind with high affinity to a target protein in the cell while the other ligand is able to bind with high affinity to an E3 ligase. In the cell, the PROTAC selectively binds to the target protein of interest.The PROTAC then recruits a specific E3 ligase to the target protein to form a ternary complex with both the target protein and the E3 ligase held in close proximity. The E3 ligase then recruits an E2 conjugating enzyme to the ternary complex. The E2 is then able to ubiquitinate the target protein, labelling an available lysine residue on the protein, and then the E2 dissociates from the ternary complex. The E3 ligase can then recruit additional E2 molecules resulting in poly-ubiquitination of the target protein, labelling the target protein for degradation by the cell’s proteasome machinery. The PROTAC can then dissociate from the target protein and initiate another catalytic cycle. The poly-ubiquitinated target protein is recognized and degraded by the proteasome.SUMMARY
[0008] Because kinases such as CDK9 are difficult to target via traditional small molecule inhibition, compounds that can take advantage of cellular machinery involved in protein homeostasis (e.g., ubiquitination and proteasome degradation via PROTAC) may be advantageous therapeutic agents in targeting CDK9.
[0009] In addition, an acute and potent degradation of CDK9 would circumvent the resistance mechanism described above and lead to a more robust attenuation of MYC activity. While the pharmacodynamics of inhibitors are driven by drug concentration, those of PROTACs appear to be driven by the target resynthesis rate. Moreover, PROTACs can act sub-stoichiometrically with rapid kinetics. These attributes confer PROTACs an advantage in preventing the emergence of drug resistance induced by long-term exposure to high concentration of small molecule inhibitors.
[0010] Moreover, targeted protein degradation offers unique advantages over other modalities to study the transient / temporal changes in cellular signaling networks resulting from the acute depletion of proteins.
[0011] As such, the present disclosure describes the conjugation of a CDK9 binding moiety with an E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety (e.g., pomalidomide) to provide compounds that can induce the ubiquitination of CDK9 and promote its degradation in cells. The compounds exhibit surprisingly advantageous properties over existing PROTACs, including selective degradation of CDK9 over one or more Ikaros Family Zinc Finger proteins (e.g., IKZF1), effective degradation of CDK9 at low concentrations of compound, extended target engagement and degradation of CDK9, and potent cytotoxicity against cancer cells.
[0012] The compounds also rapidly downregulate MYC levels. Thus, the present disclosure demonstrates that the selective degradation of CDK9 presents an attractive strategy for a robust attenuation of deregulated transcription that may provide a therapeutic relief for patients with aggressive and metastatic cancers, particularly MYC-driven cancers.
[0013] Accordingly, the present disclosure provides new compounds, compositions, kits, uses, and methods for the treatment of cancer.

[0090] A “counterion” or “anionic counterion” is a negatively charged group associated with a positively charged group in order to maintain electronic neutrality. An anionic counterion may be monovalent (z.e., including one formal negative charge). An anionic counterion may also be multivalent (z.e., including more than one formal negative charge), such as divalent or trivalent. Exemplary counterions include halide ions (e.g., F , Cl", Br , I"), , sulfonate ions (e.g., methansulfonate,trifluoromethanesulfonate, p-toluenesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, 10-camphor sulfonate, naphthalene-2-sulfonate, naphthalene- 1 -sulfonic acid-5-sulfonate, ethan-1 -sulfonic acid- 2-sulfonate, and the like), carboxylate ions (e.g., acetate, propanoate, benzoate, glycerate, lactate, tartrate, glycolate, gluconate, and the like),and carborane anions (e.g., CB11H12" or (HCB 11 McsBre) ). Exemplary counterions which may be multivalent include CO32, HPO42, PO43-, B4O72-, SO42’, S2O32-, carboxylate anions (e.g., tartrate, citrate, fumarate, maleate, malate, malonate, gluconate, succinate, glutarate, adipate, pimelate, suberate, azelate, sebacate, salicylate, phthalates, aspartate, glutamate, and the like), and carboranes.
[0091] The term “leaving group” is given its ordinary meaning in the art of synthetic organic chemistry and refers to an atom or a group capable of being displaced by a nucleophile. See, for example, Smith, March’ s Advanced Organic Chemistry 6th ed. (501- 502). Examples of suitable leaving groups include, but are not limited to, halogen (such as F, Cl, Br, or I (iodine)), alkoxycarbonyloxy, aryloxycarbonyloxy, alkanesulfonyloxy, arenesulfonyloxy, alkyl-carbonyloxy (e.g., acetoxy), arylcarbonyloxy, aryloxy, methoxy, MO-di mcthy I hydroxy lam i no, pixyl, and haloformates. In some cases, the leaving group is a sulfonic acid ester, such as toluenesulfonate (tosylate, -OTs), methanesulfonate (mesylate, - OMs), p-bromobenzenesulfonyloxy (brosylate, -OBs), -OS(=O)2(CF2)3CF3 (nonaflate, -ONf),or trifluoromethanesulfonate (triflate, -OTf). In some cases, the leaving group is a brosylate, such as p-bromobenzenesulfonyloxy. In some cases, the leaving group is a nosylate, such as 2-nitrobenzenesulfonyloxy. The leaving group may also be a phosphineoxide (e.g., formed during a Mitsunobu reaction) or an internal leaving group such as an epoxide or cyclic sulfate. Other non-limiting examples of leaving groups are water, ammonia, alcohols, ether moieties, thioether moieties, zinc halides, magnesium moieties, diazonium salts, and copper moieties. Further exemplary leaving groups include, but are not limited to, halo (e.g., chloro, bromo, iodo) and activated substituted hydroxyl groups (e.g., -OC(=O)SRaa, -OC(=O)Raa, - OCO2Raa, -OC(=O)N(Rbb)2, -OC(=NRbb)Raa, -OC(=NRbb)ORaa, -OC(=NRbb)N(Rbb)2, - OS(=O)Raa, -OSO^, -OP(RCC)2, -OP(RCC)3, -OP(=O)2Raa, -OP(=O)(Raa)2, - OP(=O)(ORCC)2, -OP(=O)2N(Rbb)2, and -OP(=O)(NRbb)2, wherein R^, Rbb, and Rccare as defined herein).
[0092] As used herein, use of the phrase “at least one instance” refers to 1, 2, 3, 4, or more instances, but also encompasses a range, e.g., for example, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 3, from 1 to 2, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 3, or from 3 to 4 instances, inclusive.
[0093] A “non-hydrogen group” refers to any group that is defined for a particular variable that is not hydrogen.
[0094] These and other exemplary substituents are described in more detail in the Detailed Description, Examples, and claims. The disclosure is not intended to be limited in any manner by the above exemplary listing of substituents.Other definitions
[0095] The following definitions are more general terms used throughout the present disclosure.
[0096] As used herein, the term “salt” refers to any and all salts, and encompasses pharmaceutically acceptable salts.
[0097] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to those salts which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of humans and lower animals without undue toxicity, irritation, allergic response, and the like, and are commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are well known in the art. For example, Berge et al. describe pharmaceutically acceptable salts in detail in J. Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1977, 66, 1-19, incorporated herein by reference. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of this disclosure include those derived from suitable inorganic and organic acids and bases. Examples of pharmaceuticallyacceptable, nontoxic acid addition salts are salts of an amino group formed 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 by using other methods known in the art such as ion exchange. Other pharmaceutically acceptable salts include adipate, alginate, ascorbate, aspartate, benzenesulfonate, benzoate, bisulfate, borate, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, citrate, cyclopentanepropionate, digluconate, dodecylsulfate, ethanesulfonate, formate, fumarate, glucoheptonate, glycerophosphate, gluconate, hemisulfate, heptanoate, hexanoate, hydroiodide, 2-hydroxy-ethanesulfonate, lactobionate, lactate, laurate, lauryl sulfate, malate, maleate, malonate, methanesulfonate, 2- naphthalenesulfonate, nicotinate, nitrate, oleate, oxalate, palmitate, pamoate, pectinate, persulfate, 3 -phenylpropionate, phosphate, picrate, pivalate, propionate, stearate, succinate, sulfate, tartrate, thiocyanate, p-toluenesulfonate, undecanoate, valerate salts, and the like. Salts derived from appropriate bases include alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, ammonium, and N+(CI-4 alkyl)4- salts. Representative alkali or alkaline earth metal salts include sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and the like. Further pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, when appropriate, nontoxic ammonium, quaternary ammonium, and amine cations formed using counterions, such as halide, hydroxide, carboxylate, sulfate, phosphate, nitrate, lower alkyl sulfonate, and aryl sulfonate.
[0098] The term “solvate” refers to forms of the compound, or a salt thereof, that are associated with a solvent, usually by a solvolysis reaction. This physical association may include hydrogen bonding. Conventional solvents include water, methanol, ethanol, acetic acid, DMSO, THF, diethyl ether, and the like. The compounds described herein may be prepared, e.g., in crystalline form, and may be solvated. Suitable solvates include pharmaceutically acceptable solvates and further include both stoichiometric solvates and non-stoichiometric solvates. In certain instances, the solvate will be capable of isolation, for example, when one or more solvent molecules are incorporated in the crystal lattice of a crystalline solid. “Solvate” encompasses both solution-phase and isolatable solvates. Representative solvates include hydrates, ethanolates, and methanolates.
[0099] The term “hydrate” refers to a compound that is associated with water. Typically, the number of the water molecules contained in a hydrate of a compound is in a definite ratio to the number of the compound molecules in the hydrate. Therefore, a hydrate of a compound may be represented, for example, by the general formula R x H2O, wherein R is thecompound, and x is a number greater than 0. A given compound may form more than one type of hydrate, including, e.g., monohydrates (x is 1), lower hydrates (x is a number greater than 0 and smaller than 1, e.g., hemihydrates (R O.5 H2O)), and polyhydrates (x is a number greater than 1, e.g., dihydrates (R-2 H2O) and hexahydrates (R-6 H2O)).
[0100] The term “tautomers” or “tautomeric” refers to two or more interconvertible compounds resulting from at least one formal migration of a hydrogen atom and at least one change in valency (e.g., a single bond to a double bond, a triple bond to a single bond, or vice versa). The exact ratio of the tautomers depends on several factors, including temperature, solvent, and pH. Tautomerizations (i.e., the reaction providing a tautomeric pair) may catalyzed by acid or base. Exemplary tautomerizations include keto-to-enol, amide-to-imide, lactam-to-lactim, enamine-to-imine, and enamine-to-(a different enamine) tautomerizations.
[0101] It is also to be understood that compounds that have the same molecular formula but differ in the nature or sequence of bonding of their atoms or the arrangement of their atoms in space are termed “isomers”. Isomers that differ in the arrangement of their atoms in space are termed “stereoisomers”.
[0102] Stereoisomers that are not mirror images of one another are termed “diastereomers” and those that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other are termed “enantiomers”. When a compound has an asymmetric center, for example, it is bonded to four different groups, a pair of enantiomers is possible. An enantiomer can be characterized by the absolute configuration of its asymmetric center and is described by the R- and S-sequencing rules of Cahn and Prelog, or by the manner in which the molecule rotates the plane of polarized light and designated as dextrorotatory or levorotatory (i.e., as (+) or (-)-isomers respectively). A chiral compound can exist as either individual enantiomer or as a mixture thereof. A mixture containing equal proportions of the enantiomers is called a “racemic mixture”.
[0103] The term “polymorph” refers to a crystalline form of a compound (or a salt, hydrate, or solvate thereof). All polymorphs have the same elemental composition. Different crystalline forms usually have different X-ray diffraction patterns, infrared spectra, melting points, density, hardness, crystal shape, optical and electrical properties, stability, and solubility. Recrystallization solvent, rate of crystallization, storage temperature, and other factors may cause one crystal form to dominate. Various polymorphs of a compound can be prepared by crystallization under different conditions.
[0104] The term “prodrugs” refers to compounds that have cleavable groups and become by solvolysis or under physiological conditions the compounds described herein, which are pharmaceutically active in vivo. Such examples include, but are not limited to, choline ester derivatives and the like, N-alkylmorpholine esters and the like. Other derivatives of the compounds described herein have activity in both their acid and acid derivative forms, but in the acid sensitive form often offer advantages of solubility, tissue compatibility, or delayed release in the mammalian organism (see, Bundgard, H., Design of Prodrugs, pp. 7-9, 21-24, Elsevier, Amsterdam 1985). Prodrugs include acid derivatives well known to practitioners of the art, such as, for example, esters prepared by reaction of the parent acid with a suitable alcohol, or amides prepared by reaction of the parent acid compound with a substituted or unsubstituted amine, or acid anhydrides, or mixed anhydrides. Simple aliphatic or aromatic esters, amides, and anhydrides derived from acidic groups pendant on the compounds described herein are particular prodrugs. In some cases it is desirable to prepare double ester type prodrugs such as (acyloxy)alkyl esters or ((alkoxycarbonyl)oxy)alkylesters. Ci-s alkyl, C2-8 alkenyl, C2-8 alkynyl, aryl, C7-12 substituted aryl, and C7-12 arylalkyl esters of the compounds described herein may be preferred.
[0105] The terms “composition” and “formulation” are used interchangeably.
[0106] A “subject” to which administration is contemplated refers to a human (z.e., male or female of any age group, e.g., pediatric subject (e.g., infant, child, or adolescent) or adult subject (e.g., young adult, middle-aged adult, or senior adult)) or non-human animal. In certain embodiments, the non-human animal is a mammal (e.g., primate (e.g., cynomolgus monkey or rhesus monkey), commercially relevant mammal (e.g., cattle, pig, horse, sheep, goat, cat, or dog), or bird (e.g., commercially relevant bird, such as chicken, duck, goose, or turkey)). In certain embodiments, the non-human animal is a fish, reptile, or amphibian. The non-human animal may be a male or female at any stage of development. The non-human animal may be a transgenic animal or genetically engineered animal. The term “patient” refers to a human subject in need of treatment of a disease. The subject may also be a plant. In certain embodiments, the plant is a land plant. In certain embodiments, the plant is a non- vascular land plant. In certain embodiments, the plant is a vascular land plant.

[0108] The term “tissue” refers to any biological tissue of a subject (including a group of cells, a body part, or an organ) or a part thereof, including blood and / or lymph vessels, which is the object to which a compound, particle, and / or composition of the disclosure is delivered. A tissue may be an abnormal or unhealthy tissue, which may need to be treated. A tissue may also be a normal or healthy tissue that is under a higher than normal risk of becoming abnormal or unhealthy, which may need to be prevented. In certain embodiments, the tissue is the central nervous system. In certain embodiments, the tissue is the brain.
[0109] The term “administer,” “administering,” or “administration” refers to implanting, absorbing, ingesting, injecting, inhaling, or otherwise introducing a compound described herein, or a composition thereof, in or on a subject.
[0110] The terms “treatment,” “treat,” and “treating” refer to reversing, alleviating, delaying the onset of, or inhibiting the progress of a disease described herein. In some embodiments, treatment may be administered after one or more signs or symptoms of the disease have developed or have been observed. In other embodiments, treatment may be administered in the absence of signs or symptoms of the disease. For example, treatment may be administered to a susceptible subject prior to the onset of symptoms (e.g., in light of a history of symptoms). Treatment may also be continued after symptoms have resolved, for example, to delay or prevent recurrence.
[0111] The terms “condition,” “disease,” and “disorder” are used interchangeably.
[0112] An “effective amount” of a compound described herein refers to an amount sufficient to elicit the desired biological response. An effective amount of a compound described herein may vary depending on such factors as the desired biological endpoint, thepharmacokinetics of the compound, the condition being treated, the mode of administration, and the age and health of the subject. In certain embodiments, an effective amount is a therapeutically effective amount. In certain embodiments, an effective amount is a prophylactic treatment. In certain embodiments, an effective amount is the amount of a compound described herein in a single dose. In certain embodiments, an effective amount is the combined amounts of a compound described herein in multiple doses.
[0113] A “therapeutically effective amount” of a compound described herein is an amount sufficient to provide a therapeutic benefit in the treatment of a condition or to delay or minimize one or more symptoms associated with the condition. A therapeutically effective amount of a compound means an amount of therapeutic agent, alone or in combination with other therapies, which provides a therapeutic benefit in the treatment of the condition. The term “therapeutically effective amount” can encompass an amount that improves overall therapy, reduces, or avoids symptoms, signs, or causes of the condition, and / or enhances the therapeutic efficacy of another therapeutic agent. In certain embodiments, a therapeutically effective amount is an amount sufficient for CDK binding and / or promoting the degradation of CDK9. In certain embodiments, a therapeutically effective amount is an amount sufficient for treating a cancer.
[0114] A “prophylactic ally effective amount” of a compound described herein is an amount sufficient to prevent a condition, or one or more signs or symptoms associated with the condition, or prevent its recurrence. A prophylactically effective amount of a compound means an amount of a therapeutic agent, alone or in combination with other agents, which provides a prophylactic benefit in the prevention of the condition. The term “prophylactically effective amount” can encompass an amount that improves overall prophylaxis or enhances the prophylactic efficacy of another prophylactic agent.
[0115] A “proliferative disease” refers to a disease that occurs due to abnormal growth or extension by the multiplication of cells (Walker, Cambridge Dictionary of Biology, Cambridge University Press: Cambridge, UK, 1990). A proliferative disease may be associated with: 1) the pathological proliferation of normally quiescent cells; 2) the pathological migration of cells from their normal location (e.g.. metastasis of neoplastic cells); 3) the pathological expression of proteolytic enzymes such as the matrix metalloproteinases (e.g., collagenases, gelatinases, and elastases); or 4) the pathological angiogenesis as in proliferative retinopathy and tumor metastasis. Exemplary proliferative diseases include cancers (z.e., “malignant neoplasms”), benign neoplasms, angiogenesis, inflammatory diseases, and autoimmune diseases.
[0116] The term “angiogenesis” refers to the physiological process through which new blood vessels form from pre-existing vessels. Angiogenesis is distinct from vasculogenesis, which is the de novo formation of endothelial cells from mesoderm cell precursors. The first vessels in a developing embryo form through vasculogenesis, after which angiogenesis is responsible for most blood vessel growth during normal or abnormal development. Angiogenesis is a vital process in growth and development, as well as in wound healing and in the formation of granulation tissue. However, angiogenesis is also a fundamental step in the transition of tumors from a benign state to a malignant one, leading to the use of angiogenesis inhibitors in the treatment of cancer. Angiogenesis may be chemically stimulated by angiogenic proteins, such as growth factors (e.g., VEGF). “Pathological angiogenesis” refers to abnormal (e.g., excessive or insufficient) angiogenesis that amounts to and / or is associated with a disease.
[0117] The terms “neoplasm” and “tumor” are used herein interchangeably and refer to an abnormal mass of tissue wherein the growth of the mass surpasses and is not coordinated with the growth of a normal tissue. A neoplasm or tumor may be “benign” or “malignant,” depending on the following characteristics: degree of cellular differentiation (including morphology and functionality), rate of growth, local invasion, and metastasis. A “benign neoplasm” is generally well differentiated, has characteristically slower growth than a malignant neoplasm, and remains localized to the site of origin. In addition, a benign neoplasm does not have the capacity to infiltrate, invade, or metastasize to distant sites. Exemplary benign neoplasms include, but are not limited to, lipoma, chondroma, adenomas, acrochordon, senile angiomas, seborrheic keratoses, lentigos, and sebaceous hyperplasias. In some cases, certain “benign” tumors may later give rise to malignant neoplasms, which may result from additional genetic changes in a subpopulation of the tumor’s neoplastic cells, and these tumors are referred to as “pre-malignant neoplasms.” An exemplary pre-malignant neoplasm is a teratoma. In contrast, a “malignant neoplasm” is generally poorly differentiated (anaplasia) and has characteristically rapid growth accompanied by progressive infiltration, invasion, and destruction of the surrounding tissue. Furthermore, a malignant neoplasm generally has the capacity to metastasize to distant sites. The term “metastasis,” “metastatic,” or “metastasize” refers to the spread or migration of cancerous cells from a primary or original tumor to another organ or tissue and is typically identifiable by the presence of a “secondary tumor” or “secondary cell mass” of the tissue type of the primary or original tumor and not of that of the organ or tissue in which the secondary (metastatic) tumor islocated. For example, a prostate cancer that has migrated to bone is said to be metastasized prostate cancer and includes cancerous prostate cancer cells growing in bone tissue.
[0118] The term “cancer” refers to a class of diseases characterized by the development of abnormal cells that proliferate uncontrollably and have the ability to infiltrate and destroy normal body tissues. See, e.g., Stedman’s Medical Dictionary, 25th ed.; Hensyl ed.; Williams & Wilkins: Philadelphia, 1990. Exemplary cancers include, but are not limited to, hematological malignancies. The term “hematological malignancy” refers to tumors that affect blood, bone marrow, and / or lymph nodes.

[0129] CDK9 coordinates signaling events that regulate RNA polymerase II (Pol II) pause-release state. It is an important co-factor for oncogenic transcription factors that drivetranscription in an addictive manner. CDK9 modulation offers an approach for attenuating transcriptional dysregulation driven by amplified or over expressed transcription factors, such as MYC. CDK9 inhibition triggers a compensatory mechanism that dampens its effect on MYC transcriptional programs and herein describe that this resistance mechanism was overcome through a targeted degradation approach. Accordingly, CDK9 degradation offers a more potent approach over inhibition for disrupting the core regulatory circuitry likely through the abrogation of both enzymatic and scaffolding functions of CDK9.
[0130] Provided herein are bifunctional compounds that bind CDK9 and recruit an E3 ligase (e.g., Cereblon) to promote the degradation of CDK9. In one aspect, the disclosure provides compounds of Formula (I), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, polymorphs, co-crystals, tautomers, stereoisomers, isotopically labeled derivatives, prodrugs, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof. The compounds are useful for the treatment of diseases associated with CDK9 (e.g., cancer) in a subject in need thereof. The compounds exhibit surprisingly advantageous properties over existing PROTACs, including selective degradation of CDK9 over one or more Ikaros Family Zinc Finger proteins (e.g., IKZF1), effective degradation of CDK9 at low concentrations of compound, extended target engagement and degradation of CDK9, and potent cytotoxicity against cancer cells.Compounds

[0217] E is an E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety. In certain embodiments, E binds to Cereblon. Human Cereblon (CRBN) is a protein of 442 amino acids with an apparent molecular weight of ~51 kDa (GenBank: AAH17419). (For the CRBN protein sequence see: Higgins et al., Neurology. 2004, 63, 1927-31. For additional information related to the CRBN structure see Hartmann et al., PLoS One. 2015, 10, e0128342.) Human CRBN contains the N-terminal part (237-amino acids from 81 to 317) of ATP-dependent Lon protease domain without the conserved Walker A and Walker B motifs, 11 casein kinase II phosphorylation sites, 4 protein kinase C phosphorylation sites, 1 N-linked glycosylation site, and 2 myristoylation sites. CRBN is widely expressed in testis, spleen, prostate, liver, pancreas, placenta, kidney, lung, skeletal muscle, ovary, small intestine, peripheral blood leukocyte, colon, brain, and retina. CRBN is located in the cytoplasm, nucleus, and peripheral membrane. (Chang et al., Int. J. Biochem. Mol. Biol. 2011, 2, 287-94.)
[0218] Cereblon is an E3 ubiquitin ligase, and it forms an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex with damaged DNA binding protein 1 (DDB1), Cullin-4A (CUL4A), and regulator of cullins 1 (ROC1). This complex ubiquitinates a number of other proteins. Through a mechanism which has not been completely elucidated, Cereblon ubiquitination of target proteins results in increased levels of fibroblast growth factor 8 (FGF8) and fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF10). FGF8, in turn, regulates a number of developmental processes, such as limb and auditory vesicle formation.

[0337] CDK9 has a central role in transcriptional regulation, which is frequently dysregulated in cancer. CDK9 is dysregulated in a number of solid tumors, including prostate cancer, neuroblastoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and lymphoma. CDK9 pathway dysregulation has likewise been observed in liquid tumors, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Thus, inhibitions and / or degradation is an attractive target for the treatment of cancer.
[0338] Transcriptional deregulation is a hallmark of many cancers and is exemplified by genomic amplifications of the MYC family of oncogenes, which occur in at least 20% of all solid tumors in adults (i.e., MYC-dependent cancers). The MYC family of protooncogenes (MYC, MYCN, and MYCL) includes the most commonly amplified genes in cancer and is associated with greater tumor aggressiveness across tumor types.
[0339] Immunomodulatory agents, including thalidomide, lenalidomide, and pomalidomide bind Cereblon. Accordingly, use of a bifunctional compound that binds and / or inhibits CDK9 and binds an E3 ubiquitin ligase (e.g., Cereblon) provides a method of treating diseases that rely on CDK9 activity.
