145021.591056 (001800.PC) SMALL MOLECULE INHIBITORS OF KRAS G12D MUTANT FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present disclosure relates to certain compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof that inhibit the G12D mutant of Kirsten rat sarcoma (KRAS) protein and are expected to have utility as therapeutic agents, for example, for treatment of cancer. The present application also relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds as well as methods of using the compounds for treating cancer. BACKGROUND
[0002] Mutations in any one of the three main isoforms of RAS (HRAS, NRAS, or KRAS) genes are among the most common events in human tumorigenesis. KRAS mutations are detected in 25-30% of tumors. By comparison, the rates of oncogenic mutation occurring in the NRAS and HRAS family members are much lower (8% and 3% respectively).
[0003] Ras proteins are membrane-associated guanine nucleotide-binding proteins which function as molecular switches. Ras proteins function as components of signaling pathways transmitting signals from cell-surface receptors to regulate cellular proliferation, survival and differentiation. Ras proteins cycle between an inactive GDP-bound state and an active GTP-bound state.
[0004] Exchange of a glycine for an aspartate at residue 12 of RAS (the G12D mutation) results from a gain-of-function mutation commonly found in RAS gene. The K-Ras(G12D) mutation represents the highest frequency of KRAS mutations. Wan Y. et al., Front. Oncol. 2020; 10:1326. The K-Ras (G12D) mutation appears frequently in certain cancer types including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, colorectal cancer and lung adenocarcinoma. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is particularly significant. This cancer type represents a malignancy having a 5-year survival rate of less than 8% and is also the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the western world. See Schneeweis C. et al., Small GTPases 2018; 9(6) 457-464.
[0005] Accordingly, while progress has been made in this field, there remains a need in the art for improved compounds and methods for treatment of cancer, for example, by inhibition of a mutant KRAS protein (e.g., KRAS G12D). Embodiments of the present disclosure fulfill this need and provide further related advantages.145021.591056 (001800.PC) SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE

[0062] “Heterocycloalkyl” or “heterocyclyl” or “heterocyclic ring” or “heterocyclyl ring” means a partially aromatic or non-aromatic monocyclic, bicyclic, tricyclic or tetracyclic ring system comprising about 3 to about 17 ring atoms, preferably about 5 to about 10 ring atoms, in which one or more of the atoms in the ring system is an element other than carbon, for example, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus or sulfur, alone or in combination. There are no adjacent oxygen and / or sulfur atoms present in the ring system. In some embodiments, heterocycloalkyls contain about 5 to about 6 ring atoms. The prefix aza, oxa, phospha or thia before the heterocyclyl root name means that at least a nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus or sulfur atom respectively is present as a ring atom. In some embodiments, the nitrogen or sulfur atom of the heterocycloalkyl can be optionally oxidized to the corresponding N-oxide, S-oxide or S,S-dioxide. For instance, in some embodiments the heterocycloalkyl can contain N, S, S(O), S(O)2and / or O (which are referred to herein as “heteroatom groups”). Non-limiting examples of suitable monocyclic heterocyclyl rings include piperidyl, pyrrolidinyl, piperazinyl, morpholinyl, thiomorpholinyl, thiazolidinyl, 1,4-dioxanyl, tetrahydrofuranyl, tetrahydrothiophenyl, phosphorinane, phosphinane, 1- oxophosphinan-1-ium and the like. “Spiroheterocycloalkyl” or “spiroheterocyclyl” refers to145021.591056 (001800.PC) a fused ring system in which the rings share only a single atom and at least one of the rings is a heterocyclyl.
[0063] “Hydroxy” means a HO- group in which the bond to the parent moiety is through the oxygen atom.
[0064] “Hydroxyalkyl” means a HO-alkyl- group in which alkyl is as previously defined. The bond to the parent moiety is through one of the carbon atoms of the alkyl component. Preferred hydroxyalkyls contain lower alkyl. Non-limiting examples of suitable hydroxyalkyl groups include hydroxymethyl and 2-hydroxyethyl. “Hydroxyfluoroalkyl” means a HO-fluoroalkyl- group in which fluoroalkyl is as previously defined. “Hydroxycycloalkyl” means a HO-cycloalkyl- group in which cycloalkyl is as previously defined. “Hydroxyfluorocycloalkyl” means a HO-fluorocycloalkyl- group in which fluorocycloalkyl is as previously defined.

[0070] When any variable (e.g., Rx) occurs more than one time in any constituent or in Formula (I) or other generic formulas herein, its definition on each occurrence is independent of its definition at every other occurrence. Combinations of substituents and / or variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds. In choosing compounds of the present disclosure, one of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that the various substituents, e.g., Rx, are to be chosen in conformity with well-known principles of chemical structure connectivity and stability. Unless expressly stated to the contrary, substitution by a named substituent is permitted on any atom in a ring (e.g., aryl, a heteroaryl ring, or a saturated heteroaryl ring) provided such ring substitution is chemically allowed and results in a stable compound. A “stable” compound is a compound which can145021.591056 (001800.PC) be prepared and isolated and whose structure and properties remain or can be caused to remain essentially unchanged for a period of time sufficient to allow use of the compound for the purposes described herein (e.g., therapeutic or prophylactic administration to a subject).
[0071] The term “substituted” shall be deemed to include multiple degrees of substitution by a named substituent. Where multiple substituent moieties are disclosed or claimed, the substituted compound can be independently substituted by one or more of the disclosed or claimed substituent moieties, singly or plurally. By independently substituted, it is meant that the (two or more) substituents can be the same or different.
[0072] Unless expressly depicted or described otherwise, variables depicted in a structural formula with a “floating” bond, such as RX, are permitted on any available carbon atom in the ring to which the variable is attached. When a moiety is noted as being “optionally substituted” in Formula (I) or any embodiment thereof, it means that Formula (I) or the embodiment thereof encompasses compounds that contain the noted substituent (or substituents) on the moiety and also compounds that do not contain the noted substituent (or substituents) on the moiety.
[0073] The wavy line , as used herein, indicates a point of attachment to the rest of the compound.
[0074] The compounds of Formula (I) may contain one or more asymmetric centers and can thus occur as racemates and racemic mixtures, single enantiomers, diastereoisomeric mixtures and individual diastereoisomers. Centers of asymmetry that are present in the compounds of Formula (I) can all independently of one another have S configuration or R configuration. The compounds of Formula (I) include all possible enantiomers and diastereomers and mixtures of two or more stereoisomers, for example, mixtures of enantiomers and / or diastereomers, in all ratios. Thus, enantiomers are a subject of the disclosure in enantiomerically pure form, both as levorotatory and as dextrorotatory antipodes, in the form of racemates and in the form of mixtures of the two enantiomers in all ratios. In the case of a cis / trans isomerism, the disclosure includes both the cis form and the trans form as well as mixtures of these forms in all ratios. The present disclosure is meant to comprehend all such stereoisomeric forms of the compounds of Formula (I). Where a structural formula or chemical name specifies a particular configuration at a stereocenter, the enantiomer or stereoisomer of the compound resulting from that specified stereocenter is intended. Where a structural formula of the compounds of Formula (I)145021.591056 (001800.PC) indicates a straight line at a chiral center, the structural formula includes both the S and R stereoisomers associated with the chiral center and mixtures thereof.
[0075] The compounds of Formula (I) may be separated into their individual diastereoisomers by, for example, fractional crystallization from a suitable solvent, for example, methanol or ethyl acetate or a mixture thereof, or via chiral chromatography using an optically active stationary phase. Absolute stereochemistry may be determined by X-ray crystallography of crystalline products or crystalline intermediates which are derivatized, if necessary, with a reagent containing an asymmetric center of known absolute configuration. Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) may also be used to determine the absolute stereochemistry. Alternatively, any stereoisomer or isomers of the compounds of Formula (I) may be obtained by stereospecific synthesis using optically pure starting materials or reagents of known absolute configuration.
[0076] If desired, racemic mixtures of the compounds may be separated so that the individual enantiomers are isolated. The separation can be carried out by methods well known in the art, such as the coupling of a racemic mixture of compounds to an enantiomerically pure compound to form a diastereoisomeric mixture, followed by separation of the individual diastereoisomers by standard methods, such as fractional crystallization or chromatography. The coupling reaction is often the formation of salts using an enantiomerically pure acid or base. The diasteromeric derivatives may then be converted to the pure enantiomers by cleavage of the added chiral residue. The racemic mixture of the compounds can also be separated directly by chromatographic methods utilizing chiral stationary phases, which methods are well known in the art.
[0077] The compounds of Formula (I) which contain olefinic double bonds, unless specified otherwise, they are meant to include both E and Z geometric isomers.
[0078] Some of the compounds described herein may exist as tautomers which have different points of attachment of hydrogen accompanied by one or more double bond shifts. For example, a ketone and its enol form are keto-enol tautomers. The individual tautomers as well as mixtures thereof are encompassed by the compounds of Formula (I).
[0079] Some of the compounds of Formula (I) described herein may exist as atropisomers when the rotational energy barrier around a single bond is sufficiently high to prevent free rotation at a given temperature, thus allowing isolation of individual conformers with distinct properties. The individual atropisomers as well as mixtures thereof are encompassed with compounds of Formula (I) of the present disclosure. When resolved, individual145021.591056 (001800.PC) atropisomers can be designated by established conventions such as those specified by the International Union of Pure Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) 2013 Recommendations.
[0080] In the compounds of Formula (I), the atoms may exhibit their natural isotopic abundances, or one or more of the atoms may be artificially enriched in a particular isotope having the same atomic number, but an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number predominantly found in nature. The present disclosure as described and claimed herein is meant to include all suitable isotopic variations of the compounds of Formula (I) and embodiments thereof. For example, different isotopic forms of hydrogen (H) include protium (1H) and deuterium (2H, also denoted herein as D). Protium is the predominant hydrogen isotope found in nature. Enriching for deuterium may afford certain therapeutic advantages, such as increasing in vivo half-life or reducing dosage requirements or may provide a compound useful as a standard for characterization of biological samples. Isotopically-enriched compounds can be prepared without undue experimentation by conventional techniques well known to those skilled in the art or by processes analogous to those described in the Schemes and Examples herein using appropriate isotopically-enriched reagents and / or intermediates.
[0081] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salts” refers to salts prepared from pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic bases or acids. When a compound of Formula (I) is acidic, its corresponding salt can be conveniently prepared from pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic bases, including inorganic bases and organic bases. Salts derived from such inorganic bases include aluminum, ammonium, calcium, copper (ic and ous), ferric, ferrous, lithium, magnesium, manganese (ic and ous), potassium, sodium, zinc and the like salts. Preferred are the ammonium, calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium salts. Salts prepared from pharmaceutically acceptable organic non-toxic bases include salts of primary, secondary, and tertiary amines derived from both naturally occurring and synthetic sources. Pharmaceutically acceptable organic non-toxic bases from which salts can beformed include, for example, arginine, betaine, caffeine, choline, N,N'- dibenzylethylenediamine, diethylamine, 2-diethylaminoethanol, 2-dimethylaminoethanol, ethanolamine, ethylenediamine, N-ethylmorpholine, N-ethylpiperidine, glucamine, glucosamine, histidine, hydrabamine, isopropylamine, dicyclohexylamine, lysine, methylglucamine, morpholine, piperazine, piperidine, polyamine resins, procaine, purines, theobromine, triethylamine, trimethylamine, tripropylamine, tromethamine and the like.
[0082] When a compound of Formula (I) is basic, its corresponding salt can be conveniently prepared from pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic inorganic and organic145021.591056 (001800.PC) acids. Such acids include, for example, acetic, benzenesulfonic, benzoic, camphorsulfonic, citric, ethanesulfonic, fumaric, gluconic, glutamic, hydrobromic, hydrochloric, isethionic, lactic, maleic, malic, mandelic, methanesulfonic, mucic, nitric, pamoic, pantothenic, phosphoric, succinic, sulfuric, tartaric, p-toluenesulfonic acid and the like. Preferred are citric, hydrobromic, hydrochloric, maleic, phosphoric, sulfuric, and tartaric acids. If a compound of Formula (I) simultaneously contains acidic and basic groups in the molecule, the disclosure also includes, in addition to the salt forms mentioned, inner salts or betaines (zwitterions). Salts can be obtained from the compounds of Formula (I) by customary methods which are known to the person skilled in the art, for example, by combination with an organic or inorganic acid or base in a solvent or dispersant, or by anion exchange or cation exchange from other salts. The present disclosure also includes all salts of the compounds of Formula (I) which, owing to low physiological compatibility, are not directly suitable for use in pharmaceuticals but which can be used, for example, as intermediates for chemical reactions or for the preparation of pharmaceutically acceptable salts.
[0083] Furthermore, the compounds of Formula (I) may exist in amorphous form and / or one or more crystalline forms, and as such all amorphous and crystalline forms and mixtures thereof of the compounds of Formula (I), including the Examples, are intended to be included within the scope of the present disclosure. In addition, some of the compounds of Formula (I) may form solvates with water (i.e., a hydrate) or common organic solvents such as but not limited to ethyl acetate. Such solvates and hydrates, particularly the pharmaceutically acceptable solvates and hydrates, of the instant compounds are likewise encompassed within the scope of this disclosure, along with un-solvated and anhydrous forms.
[0084] Any pharmaceutically acceptable pro-drug modification of a compound of Formula (I) which results in conversion in vivo to a compound within the scope of this disclosure is also within the scope of this disclosure.
[0085] The present disclosure also relates to processes for the preparation of the compounds of the disclosure which are described in the following and by which the compounds of the disclosure are obtainable.
[0086] The terms “therapeutically effective (or efficacious) amount” and similar descriptions such as “an amount efficacious for treatment” or “an effective dose” are intended to mean that amount of a compound of Formula (I) that will elicit the biological or medical response of a tissue, a system, animal or human that is being sought by a researcher, veterinarian, medical doctor or other clinician. In a preferred embodiment, the145021.591056 (001800.PC) term “therapeutically effective amount” means an amount of a compound of Formula (I) that alleviates at least one clinical symptom in a human patient. The terms “prophylactically effective (or efficacious) amount” and similar descriptions such as “an amount efficacious for prevention” are intended to mean that amount of a compound of Formula (I) that will prevent or reduce the risk of occurrence of the biological or medical event that is sought to be prevented in a tissue, a system, animal or human by a researcher, veterinarian, medical doctor or other clinician. Dosages of the compounds of Formula (I)
[0087] The dosage regimen utilizing a compound of Formula (I) is selected in accordance with a variety of factors including type, species, age, weight, sex and medical condition of the patient; the severity of the condition to be treated; the potency of the compound chosen to be administered; the route of administration; and the renal and hepatic function of the patient. A consideration of these factors is well within the purview of the ordinarily skilled clinician for the purpose of determining the therapeutically effective or prophylactically effective dosage amount needed to prevent, counter, or arrest the progress of the condition. It is understood that a specific daily dosage amount can simultaneously be both a therapeutically effective amount, e.g., for treatment of an oncological condition, and a prophylactically effective amount, e.g., for prevention of an oncological condition.
[0088] While individual needs vary, determination of optimal ranges of effective amounts of the compounds of Formula (I) is within the skill of the art. For administration to a human in, for example, the curative or prophylactic treatment of the conditions and disorders identified herein, the typical dosages of the compounds of Formula (I) can be about 0.05 mg / kg / day to about 50 mg / kg / day, or at least 0.05 mg / kg, or at least 0.08 mg / kg, or at least 0.1 mg / kg, or at least 0.2 mg / kg, or at least 0.3 mg / kg, or at least 0.4 mg / kg, or at least 0.5 mg / kg, and any amount therebetween, to about 50 mg / kg or less, or about 40 mg / kg or less, or about 30 mg / kg or less, or about 20 mg / kg or less, or about 10 mg / kg or less and any amount therebetween, which can be, for example, about 2.5 mg / day (0.5 mg / kg x 5 kg) to about 5000 mg / day (50 mg / kg x 100 kg). For example, dosages of the compounds can be about 0.1 mg / kg / day to about 50 mg / kg / day, or about 0.05 mg / kg / day to about 10 mg / kg / day, or about 0.05 mg / kg / day to about 5 mg / kg / day, or about 0.05 mg / kg / day to about 3 mg / kg / day, or about 0.07 mg / kg / day to about 3 mg / kg / day, or about 0.09 mg / kg / day to about 3 mg / kg / day, or about 0.05 mg / kg / day to about 0.1 mg / kg / day, or about 0.1 mg / kg / day to about 1 mg / kg / day, or about 1 mg / kg / day to about 10 mg / kg / day, or about 1145021.591056 (001800.PC) mg / kg / day to about 5 mg / kg / day, or about 1 mg / kg / day to about 3 mg / kg / day, or about 3 mg / day to about 500 mg / day, or about 5 mg / day to about 250 mg / day, or about 10 mg / day to about 100 mg / day, or about 3 mg / day to about 10 mg / day, or about 100 mg / day to about 250 mg / day. Such doses may be administered in a single dose or may be divided into multiple doses. Pharmaceutical Compositions
[0089] The compounds of Formula (I) and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be administered to animals, preferably to mammals, and in particular to humans, as pharmaceuticals by themselves, in mixtures with one another or in the form of pharmaceutical compositions. The term “subject” or “patient” includes animals, preferably mammals and especially humans, who use the instant active agents for the prevention or treatment of a medical condition. Administering of the drug to the subject includes both self-administration and administration to the patient by another person. The subject may be in need of, or desire, treatment for an existing disease or medical condition, or may be in need of or desire prophylactic treatment to prevent or reduce the risk of occurrence of said disease or medical condition. As used herein, a subject “in need” of treatment of an existing condition or of prophylactic treatment encompasses both a determination of need by a medical professional as well as the desire of a patient for such treatment.
[0090] The present disclosure therefore also provides the compounds of the disclosure and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts for use as pharmaceuticals, their use for modulating the activity of mutant KRAS proteins and in particular their use in the therapy and prophylaxis of the below-mentioned diseases or disorders as well as their use for preparing medicaments for these purposes.

The preferred administration form depends, for example, on the disease to be treated and on its severity.
[0095] The amount of active compound of a compound described herein and / or its pharmaceutically acceptable salts in the pharmaceutical composition normally is from 0.01 to 200 mg, or from 0.1 to 200 mg, or from 1 to 200 mg, per dose, but depending on the type of the pharmaceutical composition, it can also be higher. In some embodiments, the amount of active compound of a compound of Formula (I) and / or its pharmaceutically acceptable salts in the pharmaceutical composition is from 0.01 to 10 mg per dose. The pharmaceutical compositions usually comprise 0.5 to 90 percent by weight of at least one compound of Formula (I) and / or its pharmaceutically acceptable salts. The preparation of the pharmaceutical compositions can be carried out in a manner known per se. For this purpose, one or more compounds of Formula (I) and / or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, together with one or more solid or liquid pharmaceutical carrier substances and / or additives (or auxiliary substances) and, if desired, in combination with other pharmaceutically active compounds having therapeutic or prophylactic action, are brought into a suitable administration form or dosage form which can then be used as a pharmaceutical in human or veterinary medicine.

Kits and commercially available assays can be utilized for determining one or more of the above.
[0099] The present application also provides methods of using the compounds of the disclosure (or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts) or pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds to treat disease conditions, including but not limited to, conditions implicated by mutant KRAS proteins (e.g., cancer), and in some embodiments the KRAS G12D mutant.
[0100] In some embodiments, a method for treatment of cancer is provided, the method comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount a compound of the disclosure (or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) or any of the foregoing pharmaceutical compositions comprising such a compound to a subject in need of such treatment. In some145021.591056 (001800.PC) embodiments, the cancer is mediated by a KRAS mutation, e.g., the KRAS G12D mutation. In various embodiments, the cancer is pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer or lung cancer. In some embodiments, the cancer is gall bladder cancer, thyroid cancer, or bile duct cancer.
[0101] In some embodiments the present disclosure provides a method of treating a disorder in a subject in need thereof, wherein said method comprises determining if the subject has a KRAS mutation (e.g., KRAS G12D mutation) and if the subject is determined to have the KRAS mutation, then administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the disclosure or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
[0102] The disclosed compounds inhibit anchorage-independent cell growth and therefore have the potential to inhibit tumor metastasis. Accordingly, another embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for inhibiting tumor metastasis, the method comprising administering an effective amount a compound of Formula (I).
[0103] KRAS, HRAS or NRAS mutations have also been identified in hematological malignancies (e.g., cancers that affect blood, bone marrow and / or lymph nodes). Accordingly, certain embodiments are directed to administration of the compounds of the disclosure (e.g., in the form of a pharmaceutical composition) to a subject in need of treatment of a hematological malignancy. Such malignancies include, but are not limited to leukemias and lymphomas.
