[0002] RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0003] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 457,857, filed on April 7, 2023. The entire contents of the foregoing application are expressly incorporated herein by reference.
[0004] FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0005] The present disclosure relates to inhibitors of Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts 5 thereof, compositions of these compounds, processes for their preparation, their use in the treatment of diseases, their use in optional combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier for the manufacture of pharmaceutical preparations, the use of the pharmaceutical preparations in the treatment of diseases, and methods of treating diseases comprising administering the TYK2 inhibitor to a warm-blooded animal, especially a 10 human.
[0006] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0007] Cytokines are small secreted proteins released by cells and have a specific effect on the interactions and communications between cells. Cytokine pathways mediate a broad range of biological functions including many aspects of inflammation and immunity through mostly extracellular signaling.
[0008] Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) is a member of Janus kinases (JAK) that are cytoplasmic protein kinases associated with cytokine receptors and play a central role in mediating cytokine signaling (Kisseleva et al., Gene, 2002, 285, 1; and Yamaoka et al. Genome Biology 2004, 5, 253). The JAK family also includes JAK1, JAK2 and JAK3. More specifically, cytokine’s engagement with cognate receptors triggers activation of receptors associate with JAK, which leads to JAK mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) proteins and ultimately transcriptional activation of specific gene sets (Schindler et al, 2007, J. Biol. Chem. 282: 20059-63). Numerous cytokines known to activate the JAK family include the interferon (IFN) family (IFN-alpha, IFN-beta, IFN- omega, Limitin, IFN-gamma, IL- 10, IL- 19, IL-20, IL-22), the glycoprotein (gp) 130 family (IL-6, IL-11, OSM, L1F, CNTF, NNT-l / BSF-3, G-CSF, CT-1, Leptin, IL-12, IL-23), the gamma C family (IL-2, IL-7, TSLP, IL-9, IL-15, IL-21, IL-4, IL-13), IL-3 family (IL-3, IL-5, GM-CSF), the single chain family (EPO, GH, PRL, TPO), receptor tyrosine kinases (EGF, PDGF, CSF-1, HGF), and G-protein coupled receptors (AT1). TYK2 is important in the signaling of the type I interferons (e.g., IFN-alpha), IL-6, IL-10, IL-12 and IL-23 (Liang, Y. et al., Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets, 2014, 18,5, 571-580; Kisseleva et al., 2002, Gene 285:1-24; and Watford, W.T. & O’Shea, J.J., 2006, Immunity 25:695-697). Consistent with this, primary cells derived from a TYK2 deficient human are defective in type I interferon, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12 and IL-23 signaling. TYK2 signals with other members of the JAK family in the following combinations: TYK2 / JAK1, TYK2 / JAK2, TYK2 / JAK1 / JAK2. Studies have shown that inappropriate JAK activities can arise from mutation, over- expression, or inappropriate regulation, dys-regulation or de-regulation, as well as over- or under-production of growth factors or cytokines, and therefore trigger a variety of biological cellular responses relating to cell growth, cell differentiation, cell function, survival, apoptosis, and cell mobility. The inappropriate JAK activities are implicated in many diseases that include but not limited to cancer, cardiovascular diseases, allergies, asthma and other respiratory diseases, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, bone diseases, metabolic disorders, and neurological and neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. Small molecule JAK inhibitors have emerged as a major therapeutic advancement in treating autoimmune diseases. To date, all known small molecule JAK inhibitors that have progressed into development are active site-directed inhibitors that bind to the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) site of the catalytic domain (also referred to as the JH1 or “Janus Homology 1” domain) of the JAK protein, which prevents catalytic activity of the kinase by blocking ATP, downstream phosphorylation, and resulting pathway signal transduction (Bryan et al., J. Med. Chem.2018, 61, 9030−9058). Because of the high homology of the ATP active site across the kinome and especially within the JAK family, it is a significant challenge to achieve high selectivity for a specific JAK family member while also maintaining selectivity within the kinome. As a result, many JAK inhibitors that have been developed are pan-JAK inhibitors or are modestly selective for one or more JAK family members. While these inhibitors have shown encouraging results in treating autoimmune diseases, undesirable side effects leading to a narrow therapeutic index have been observed and suggest the need for improved treatments. TYK2 has been shown to be important in the differentiation and function of multiple cell types important in inflammatory disease and autoimmune disease including natural killer cells, B cells, and T helper cell types. Aberrant TYK2 expression is associated with multiple autoimmune or inflammatory conditions. There remains a need for potent compounds that demonstrate high selectivity for TYK2 over other members of the JAK family.

When a particular enantiomer of a compound is depicted by name or structure, the stereochemical purity of the compounds is at least 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 97%, 99%, 99.5% or 99.9%. “Stereochemical purity” means the weight percent of the desired enantiomer relative to the combined weight of all stereoisomers. When the stereochemistry of a disclosed compound is named or depicted by structure, and the named or depicted structure encompasses more than one stereoisomer (e.g., as in a diastereomeric pair), it is to be understood that one of the encompassed stereoisomers or any mixture of the encompassed stereoisomers are included. It is to be further understood that the stereoisomeric purity of the named or depicted stereoisomers is at least 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 97%, 99%, 99.5% or 99.9%. The stereoisomeric purity means the weight percent of the desired stereoisomers encompassed by the name or structure relative to the combined weight of all of the stereoisomers. When a disclosed compound is named or depicted by structure without indicating the stereochemistry, and the compound has one chiral center, it is to be understood that the name or structure encompasses one enantiomer of compound in pure or substantially pure form, as well as mixtures thereof (such as a racemic mixture of the compound and mixtures enriched in one enantiomer relative to its corresponding optical isomer). Unless specified otherwise, the compounds of the present disclosure are meant to include all such possible stereoisomers, including racemic mixtures, optically pure forms and intermediate mixtures. Optically active (R)- and (S)-stereoisomers may be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques (e.g., separated on chiral SFC or HPLC chromatography columns, such as CHIRALPAKRTMand CHIRALCELRTMavailable from DAICEL Corp. using the appropriate solvent or mixture of solvents to achieve good separation). If the compound contains a double bond, the substituent may be E or Z configuration. If the compound contains a disubstituted cycloalkyl, the cycloalkyl substituent may have a cis- or trans-configuration. All tautomeric forms are also intended to be included. When a disclosed compound is named or depicted by structure without indicating the stereochemistry and, e.g., the compound has at least two chiral centers, it is to be understood that the name or structure encompasses one stereoisomer in pure or substantially pure form, as well as mixtures thereof (such as mixtures of stereoisomers, and mixtures of stereoisomers in which one or more stereoisomers is enriched relative to the other stereoisomer(s)). The disclosed compounds may exist in tautomeric forms and mixtures and separate individual tautomers are contemplated. All such forms are embraced within the scope of the disclosure. In addition, some compounds may exhibit polymorphism. The term “tautomer” or “tautomeric form” refers to structural isomers of different energies which are interconvertible via a low energy barrier. For example, proton tautomers (also known as prototropic tautomers) include interconversions via migration of a proton, such as keto-enol and imine-enamine isomerizations. A specific example of a proton tautomer is the imidazole moiety where the proton may migrate between the two ring nitrogens. Valence tautomers include interconversions by reorganization of some of the bonding electrons. Furthermore, the compounds of the present disclosure, including their salts, may also be obtained in the form of their hydrates, or include other solvents used for their crystallization. The compounds of the present disclosure may inherently or by design form solvates with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents (including water); therefore, it is intended that the disclosure embrace both solvated and unsolvated forms. The term “solvate” refers to a molecular complex of a compound of the present disclosure (including pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof) with one or more solvent molecules. Such solvent molecules are those commonly used in the pharmaceutical art, which are known to be innocuous to the recipient, e.g., water, ethanol, and the like. The term “hydrate” refers to the complex where the solvent molecule is water. Compounds of the disclosure that contain groups capable of acting as donors and / or acceptors for hydrogen bonds may be capable of forming co-crystals with suitable co-crystal formers. These co-crystals may be prepared from the compounds by known co-crystal forming procedures. Such procedures include grinding, heating, co-subliming, co-melting, or contacting in solution the compounds with the co-crystal former under crystallization conditions and isolating co-crystals thereby formed. Suitable co-crystal formers include those described in WO 2004 / 078163. Hence the disclosure further provides co-crystals comprising a compound described herein. In one embodiment, the disclosure provides deuterated compounds disclosed herein, in which any or more positions occupied by hydrogen can include enrichment by deuterium above the natural abundance of deuterium. For example, one or more hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium at an abundance that is at least 3340 times greater than the natural abundance of deuterium, which is 0.015% (i.e., at least 50.1% incorporation of deuterium), at least 3500 (52.5% deuterium incorporation at each designated deuterium atom), at least 4000 (60% deuterium incorporation), at least 4500 (67.5% deuterium incorporation), at least 5000 (75% deuterium), at least 5500 (82.5% deuterium incorporation), at least 6000 (90% deuterium incorporation), at least 6333.3 (95% deuterium incorporation), at least 6466.7 (97% deuterium incorporation), at least 6600 (99% deuterium incorporation), or at least 6633.3 (99.5% deuterium incorporation). In one embodiment, hydrogen is present at all positions at its natural abundance. In another embodiment, the present disclosure is a pharmaceutical composition comprising at least on compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” includes generally recognized as safe (GRAS) solvents, dispersion media, surfactants, antioxidants, preservatives (e.g., antibacterial agents, antifungal agents), isotonic agents, salts, preservatives, drug stabilizers, buffering agents (e.g., maleic acid, tartaric acid, lactic acid, citric acid, acetic acid, sodium bicarbonate, sodium phosphate, and the like), and the like and combinations thereof, as would be known to those skilled in the art (see, for example, Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th Ed. Mack Printing Company, 1990, pp.1289- 1329). Except insofar as any conventional carrier is incompatible with the active ingredient, its use in the therapeutic or pharmaceutical compositions is contemplated. The formulations may be prepared using conventional dissolution and mixing procedures. For example, the bulk drug substance (i.e., compound of the present disclosure or stabilized form of the compound (e.g., complex with a cyclodextrin derivative or other known complexation agent)) is dissolved in a suitable solvent in the presence of one or more of the excipients described above. The compound of the present disclosure is typically formulated into pharmaceutical dosage forms to provide an easily controllable dosage of the drug and to give the patient an elegant and easily handleable product.

The parenteral compositions may be sterilized and / or contain adjuvants, such as preserving, stabilizing, wetting or emulsifying agents, solution promoters, salts for regulating the osmotic pressure and / or buffers. In addition, they may also contain other therapeutically valuable substances. The compositions are generally prepared according to conventional mixing, granulating or coating methods, respectively, and contain about 0.1- 75%, or contain about 1-50%, of the active ingredient.

In some embodiments, the subject can be a human. Compounds of the present disclosure may be synthesized by synthetic routes that include processes analogous to those well-known in the chemical arts, particularly in light of the description contained herein. The starting materials are generally available from commercial sources such as Sigma-Aldrich or are readily prepared using methods well known to those skilled in the art (e.g., prepared by methods generally described in Louis F. Fieser and Mary Fieser, Reagents for Organic Synthesis, v.1-19, Wiley, New York (1967- 1999 ed.), or Beilsteins Handbuch der organischen Chemie, 4, Aufl. ed. Springer-Verlag, Berlin, including supplements (also available via the Beilstein online database)). The protection of functional groups by protecting groups, the protecting groups themselves, and their cleavage reactions are described for example in standard reference works, such as J. F. W. McOmie, “Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry”, Plenum Press, London and New York 1973, in T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, Third edition, Wiley, New York 1999, in “The Peptides”; Volume 3 (editors: E. Gross and J. Meienhofer), Academic Press, London and New York 1981, in “Methoden der organischen Chemie” (Methods of Organic Chemistry), Houben Weyl, 4th edition, Volume 15 / I, Georg Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart 1974, and in H.-D. Jakubke and H. Jeschkeit, “Aminosauren, Peptide, Proteine” (Amino acids, Peptides, Proteins), Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, Deerfield Beach, and Basel 1982. A characteristic of protecting groups is that they can be removed readily (i.e. without the occurrence of undesired secondary reactions) for example by solvolysis, reduction, photolysis or alternatively under physiological conditions (e.g. by enzymatic cleavage). Salts of compounds of the present disclosure having at least one salt-forming group may be prepared in a manner known to those skilled in the art. For example, acid addition salts of compounds of the present disclosure are obtained in customary manner, e.g. by treating the compounds with an acid or a suitable anion exchange reagent. Salts can be converted into the free compounds in accordance with methods known to those skilled in the art. Acid addition salts can be converted, for example, by treatment with a suitable basic agent. Any resulting mixtures of isomers can be separated on the basis of the physicochemical differences of the constituents, into the pure or substantially pure geometric or optical isomers, diastereomers, racemates, for example, by chromatography and / or fractional crystallization. For those compounds containing an asymmetric carbon atom, the compounds exist in individual optically active isomeric forms or as mixtures thereof, e.g. as racemic or diastereomeric mixtures. Diastereomeric mixtures can be separated into their individual diastereoisomers on the basis of their physical chemical differences by methods well known to those skilled in the art, such as by chromatography and / or fractional crystallization. Enantiomers can be separated by converting the enantiomeric mixture into a diastereomeric mixture by reaction with an appropriate optically active compound (e.g., chiral auxiliary such as a chiral alcohol or Mosher's acid chloride), separating the diastereoisomers and converting (e.g., hydrolyzing) the individual diastereoisomers to the corresponding pure enantiomers. Enantiomers can also be separated by use of a commercially available chiral HPLC column. The disclosure further includes any variant of the present processes, in which the reaction components are used in the form of their salts or optically pure material. Compounds of the disclosure and intermediates can also be converted into each other according to methods generally known to those skilled in the art.
