[Background technology]

[0002] Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are a family of serine / threonine kinases regulated by direct binding to cyclins. The first CDKs discovered (CDK1, CDK2, CDK4, and CDK6) bind to their cognate cyclins at specific cell cycle stages, activating their kinase activity and promoting cell cycle progression (Malumbres M. Genome Biology 2014). Related CDK family members (CDK7, CDK8, CDK9, CDK12, and CDK13) are involved in other biological functions, such as transcriptional regulation (Chou J., et al. Cancer Discovery 2020). The cell cycle is initiated following a growth stimulus that signals for the expression of cyclin D, binding to CDK4 / 6, and activation of the kinase. The activated CDK4 / 6-cyclin D complex monophosphorylates the tumor suppressor retinoblastoma protein (RB), initiating the expression of cyclin E and the formation of an activated CDK2-cyclin E complex. Activated CDK2-cyclin E hyperphosphorylates RB, triggering DNA replication, which is further promoted by CDK2-cyclin A. Finally, CDK1-cyclin B and CDK1-cyclin A coordinate the separation of duplicated DNA within the mother cell, completing cell division and forming two new daughter cells (Otto, T., and Sicinski, P. Nat Rev Cancer 2017).

[0003] Because sustained cell proliferation is a hallmark of cancer, alterations in pathways controlling cell cycle progression are often associated with cancer. Indeed, CCNE1 (the gene encoding cyclin E1 protein) is one of the most frequently amplified genes in various cancers, including ovarian, endometrial, gastric, cervical, bladder, esophageal, lung, and breast cancers (Sanchez-Vega F., et al. Cell 2018; Cerami E., et al. Cancer Discovery 2012). Amplified CCNE1, which causes overexpression of cyclin E1 protein, is thought to be an oncogenic driver of these tumors by increasing CDK2 cyclin E activity. Notably, tumor cells with amplified or overexpressed CCNE1 are dependent on CDK2 activity, thereby providing a rationale for targeting CDK2 in this genetically defined patient population (McDonald ER, et al. Cell 2017; Au-Yeung G., et al. Clin Cancer Research 2016). Furthermore, CDK2 activation through amplification and overexpression of cyclin E1 is a common mechanism of resistance to several approved targeted therapies (e.g., CDK4 / 6 and HER2 modulators), thus supporting the combination of CDK2 targeting with other validated drivers in cancer (Turner NC, et al. J Clin Oncology 2019; Herrera-Abreu MT, et al. Cancer Research 2016; Scaltriti M., et al. PNAS 2011). Several pan-CDK inhibitors with activity against CDK2 and other CDKs have shown evidence of clinical activity but also significant hematopoietic and gastrointestinal toxicity, likely due to inhibition of CDK1 (Otto, T., and Sicinski, P., Nat. Review Cancer 2017; Kumar, KS, et al. Blood 2015; Shapiro GI, et al. Clin Cancer Research 2001). Although CDK2 activity may not be critical for normal cellular function, CDK1 activity is essential in all cells, particularly in highly proliferating cells of the intestinal and hematopoietic systems (Berthet C., et al. Current Biology 2003; Jayapal SR, et al. Haematologica 2015; Santamaria D., et al. Nature 2007; Lu S., et al. Tox Sciences 2020). [Prior art documents] [Non-patent literature]

[0026] As used herein, the term "unsaturated" means that a moiety has one or more units of unsaturation.

[0027] The term "alkylene" refers to a divalent alkyl group. An "alkylene chain" is a polymethylene group, i.e., -(CH2) n-, where n is a positive integer, preferably 1 to 6, 1 to 4, 1 to 3, 1 to 2, or 2 to 3. A substituted alkylene chain is a polymethylene group in which one or more methylene hydrogen atoms are replaced with a substituent. Suitable substituents include those described below for substituted aliphatic groups.

[0028] The term "alkenylene" refers to a divalent alkenyl group. A substituted alkenylene chain is a polymethylene group containing at least one double bond in which one or more hydrogen atoms are replaced with a substituent. Suitable substituents include those described below for substituted aliphatic groups.

[0029] The term "halogen" means F, Cl, Br, or I.

[0030] The term "aryl," used alone or as part of a larger moiety, refers to a monocyclic or bicyclic ring system having a total of 5 to 14 ring members, wherein at least one ring in the system is aromatic and each ring in the system contains 3 to 7 ring members. The term "aryl" may be used interchangeably with the term "aryl ring." In certain embodiments of the compounds described herein, "aryl" refers to an aromatic ring system, including, but not limited to, phenyl, naphthyl, anthracyl, and the like, which may bear one or more substituents. It will be understood that an "aryl" group can include carbon and heteroatom ring members.

[0031] Unless otherwise defined, the term "heteroaryl" or "heteroaromatic," as used herein, refers to a monocyclic aromatic 5- or 6-membered ring containing one or more heteroatoms, e.g., 1 to 4 heteroatoms, e.g., nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur, or an 8- to 10-membered polycyclic ring system containing one or more heteroatoms, wherein at least one ring of the polycyclic ring system is aromatic and the point of attachment of the polycyclic ring system is through a ring atom on the aromatic ring. Heteroaryl rings may be attached to adjacent radicals through carbon or nitrogen. Examples of heteroaryl rings include, but are not limited to, furan, thiophene, pyrrole, thiazole, oxazole, isothiazole, isoxazole, imidazole, pyrazole, triazole, pyridine, pyrimidine, indole, and the like.

Examples of partially unsaturated rings include, but are not limited to, 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran, 3-pyrroline, 2-thiazoline, etc. When a partially unsaturated ring is part of a polycyclic ring system, the other constituent rings of the polycyclic ring system may be saturated, partially unsaturated, or aromatic, but the attachment point of the polycyclic ring system is on the partially unsaturated constituent ring. For example, unless otherwise defined, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline is a partially unsaturated ring when its attachment point is through the piperidino ring, such as: [ka] .

[0034] The term "saturated" with respect to a ring, unless otherwise defined, refers to a 3- to 10-membered monocyclic ring or a 7- to 14-membered polycyclic (e.g., bicyclic, tricyclic, etc.) ring system, where the monocyclic ring or the constituent ring that is the point of attachment to the polycyclic ring system does not contain any further degree of unsaturation beyond that provided by the ring itself. Examples of monocyclic saturated rings include, but are not limited to, azetidine, oxetane, cyclohexane, and the like. When a saturated ring is part of a polycyclic ring system, the other constituent rings of the polycyclic ring system may be saturated, partially unsaturated, or aromatic, but the point of attachment of the polycyclic ring system is on the saturated constituent ring. For example, unless otherwise defined, 2-azaspiro[3.4]oct-6-ene is a saturated ring when its point of attachment is through the azetidino ring, e.g., [ka] .

As defined by IUPAC, a "bridge" is an unbranched chain of atoms or a valence bond connecting two bridgeheads, and a "bridgehead" is any skeletal atom of the ring system that is connected to three or more skeletal atoms (excluding hydrogen). In some embodiments, bridged bicyclic groups have 7 to 12 ring members and 0 to 4 heteroatoms independently selected from nitrogen, oxygen, or sulfur. Such bridged bicyclic groups are well known in the art and include the groups shown below, in which each group is attached to the remainder of the molecule at any substitutable carbon or nitrogen atom. Unless otherwise specified, bridged bicyclic groups are optionally substituted with one or more substituents described for aliphatic groups. Additionally or alternatively, any substitutable nitrogen of a bridged bicyclic group is optionally substituted. Examples of bridged bicyclic groups include: [ka] .

[0037] As described herein, the compounds described herein may contain "optionally substituted" moieties. In general, the term "substituted," whether preceded by the term "optionally," means that one or more hydrogens of a given moiety have been replaced with a suitable substituent. Unless otherwise indicated, an "optionally substituted" group may have a suitable substituent at each substitutable position of the group, and if multiple positions in any given structure can be substituted with multiple substituents selected from a given group, the substituents may be the same or different at all positions. Combinations of substituents envisioned in this disclosure are preferably those that result in the formation of stable or chemically feasible compounds. As used herein, the term "stable" refers to a compound that is substantially unchanged when subjected to conditions that allow for its production, detection, and, in certain embodiments, its recovery, purification, and use for one or more of the purposes disclosed herein.

[0051] As used herein, the term "about" is used herein to mean approximately, in the region of, around, or within a range thereof. When the term "about" is used in conjunction with a numerical range, it modifies that range by extending the boundaries above and below the stated numerical values. In general, the term "about" is used herein to modify a numerical value above or below the stated numerical value by a variance of 20 percent above or below (high or low).

[0052] As used herein, an "effective amount," "sufficient amount," or "therapeutically effective amount" is an amount of a compound that, when administered to a subject or population suffering from or susceptible to a disease, disorder, and / or condition according to a therapeutic regimen, is sufficient to treat the disease, disorder, and / or condition (e.g., to produce a beneficial or desired result, including a clinical result). Thus, an effective amount can be sufficient, for example, to reduce or ameliorate the severity and / or duration of an affliction associated with CDK2 signaling, or one or more symptoms thereof, prevent the progression of a condition or symptom associated with an affliction associated with CDK2 signaling, or enhance or otherwise improve the prophylactic or therapeutic effect(s) of another therapy. An effective amount also includes an amount of a compound that avoids or substantially reduces undesirable side effects.

[0053] As used herein and as well understood in the art, "treatment" refers to an approach for obtaining beneficial or desired results, including clinical results. Beneficial or desired clinical results may include, but are not limited to, alleviation or amelioration of one or more symptoms or conditions, whether detectable or undetectable, reduction in the severity of the disease or affliction, stabilization (i.e., not worsening) of the disease or affliction state, prevention of the spread of the disease or affliction, delay or slowing of the progression of the disease or affliction, improvement or alleviation of the disease or affliction state, and remission (partial or total). "Treatment" may also mean prolonging survival compared to expected survival in the absence of treatment. In some embodiments, treatment may be administered after the onset of one or more symptoms. In other embodiments, treatment may be administered in the absence of symptoms. For example, treatment may be administered to a susceptible individual prior to the onset of symptoms (e.g., taking into account a history of the symptoms and / or taking into account genetic or other susceptibility factors). Treatment may also be continued after the symptoms have been cured, e.g., to prevent or delay recurrence.

[0054] The phrase "in need thereof" refers to a need for symptomatic or asymptomatic relief from a condition associated with CDK2 signaling activity or that may otherwise be alleviated with the compounds and / or compositions of the present disclosure.

[0166] Uses of the Compounds and Pharmaceutically Acceptable Compositions The compounds and compositions described herein are generally useful for inhibiting kinases or mutants thereof. In some embodiments, the kinase inhibited by the compounds and compositions described herein is a cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK). In some embodiments, the kinase inhibited by the compounds and compositions described herein is one or more of CDK1, CDK2, CDK4, and CDK6. In some embodiments, the kinase inhibited by the compounds and compositions described herein is CDK2.

[0167] The compounds or compositions of the present disclosure may be useful in applications that benefit from inhibition of the CDK2 enzyme. For example, the CDK2 inhibitors described herein are generally useful in treating proliferative diseases. CDK2 is known to be a factor in tumorigenesis and proliferation in many cancer types, including lung, liver, colon, and breast cancer (Opyrchal, Int J Oncol 2014; Shi, PLoS One 2015; Lim, Cancer Prev Res 2014). Evidence suggests that CDK2 is functionally linked to the hyperproliferation of multiple cancer cells and is a potential therapeutic target for cancer treatment (Chohan, Curr Med Chem 2015). CDK2 plays a role in the oncogenic transformation of breast epithelial cells. Suppression of CDK2 activity can effectively inhibit the proliferation of human breast cancer cells (Ali, Cancer Res 2009). Activated CDK2, in the form of a cyclin D1 / CDK2 fusion protein, induces tumors containing invasive components that exhibit several characteristics in common with human basal-like tumors and tumor-derived cell lines (Corsino, Neoplasia 2008). Cyclin D1 / CDK2 complexes have been detected in human breast cancer cell lines (Sweeney, Oncogene 1998), and the levels of these complexes correlate well with the degree of cyclin D1 overexpression. The role of cyclin E and its associated kinase CDK2 in ovarian cancer has been studied by screening primary, metastatic, recurrent, and benign ovarian tumors. Using gene amplification, it was shown that cyclin E was amplified in 21% of the analyzed cases, and CDK2 was amplified in 6.4%. Furthermore, cyclin E RNA was overexpressed in 29.5% of ovarian tumors tested, and CDK2 was overexpressed in 6.5%. Cyclin E and CDK2 were overexpressed primarily in primary ovarian cancers (32% and 10%, respectively) compared with metastatic and recurrent disease (Marone, Int J Cancer 1998). CDK2 expression has been found to be significantly elevated in glioma tumors, particularly glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), and is functionally required for GBM cell proliferation and tumorigenesis (Wang, Transl Oncol 2016). CDK2 expression is significantly enriched in GBM tumors and confirmed to be functionally required for tumor growth both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, high CDK2 expression has been associated with poor prognosis in GBM patients. Radioresistance is a major factor in poor clinical prognosis and tumor recurrence in GBM patients. CDK2 has been found to be one of the most upregulated kinase-encoding genes in GBM after radiation treatment. CDK2-dependent radioresistance is dependent on GBM tumorigenesis and recurrence after therapeutic treatment (ibid.). Increased CDK2 expression levels have been observed in human cholangiocarcinoma tissues, and apoptosis-related protein 1-dependent inhibition of CDK2 induced cell cycle arrest and suppressed tumor growth (Zheng, Oncol Rep 2016). Overexpression of CDK2 in oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) may increase pRB phosphorylation, allowing cancer cells to transition more rapidly to the S phase. In a clinicopathological study of oral SCC, the incidence of CDK2 expression was higher in poorly differentiated lesions and correlated with the pattern of tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis, and survival rate. Changes in CDK2 expression correlated with the progression of oral cancer (Mihara, Jpn J Cancer Res 2001). CDK2 expression was significantly correlated with lymph node involvement, tumor differentiation, pattern of tumor invasion, and shortened survival time. Therefore, increased CDK2 expression is a contributing factor to the progression of oral cancer and a negative predictive marker for patient prognosis (ibid.). CDK2 has been shown to play a role in the cell proliferation of non-small cell lung cancer (Kawana, Am J Pathol 1998). CDK2 has also been shown to play a role in the cell proliferation of prostate cancer (Flores, Endocrinology 2010). The activity of the compounds described herein as inhibitors of CDK kinases, such as CDK2, or mutants thereof, can be assayed in vitro, in vivo, or in cell lines. In vitro assays include assays that determine inhibition of either the phosphorylation activity and / or subsequent functional consequences, or the ATPase activity, of activated CDK2 or its mutants. An alternative in vitro assay quantifies the ability of inhibitors to bind to CDK2. Inhibitor binding can be measured by radiolabeling the inhibitor prior to binding, isolating the inhibitor / CDK2 complex, and measuring the amount of bound radiolabel. Alternatively, inhibitor binding can be determined by performing a competition experiment in which new inhibitors are incubated with CDK2 bound to a known radioligand. Representative in vitro and in vivo assays useful for assaying CDK2 inhibitors include those described and disclosed in the patents and scientific publications cited herein. Detailed conditions for assaying the compounds described herein as inhibitors of CDK2 or mutants thereof are described in the Examples below.

[0180] Route of administration and dosage form The compounds and compositions may be administered in accordance with the methods described herein using any amount and any route of administration effective for treating or reducing the severity of a disorder (e.g., a proliferative disorder or craniosynostosis syndrome). The exact amount required will vary from subject to subject, depending on the subject's species, age, and general condition, the severity of the infection, the particular drug, its mode of administration, and the like. The compounds described herein are preferably formulated in unit dosage form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. As used herein, the phrase "unit dosage form" refers to a physically discrete unit of drug appropriate for the patient to be treated. However, it will be understood that the total daily frequency of use of the compounds and compositions of the present disclosure will be determined by the attending physician within the scope of sound medical judgment. The specific effective dosage level for a particular patient or organism will vary depending on a variety of factors, including the disorder being treated and the severity of the disorder; the activity of the particular compound used; the particular composition used; the patient's age, weight, general health, sex, and diet; the time of administration, route of administration, and excretion rate of the particular compound used; the duration of treatment; drugs used in combination with or concurrently with the particular compound used; and similar factors well known in the medical arts.

[0181] The pharmaceutically acceptable compositions described herein can be administered to humans and other animals orally, rectally, parenterally, intracisternally, intravaginally, intraperitoneally, topically (by powder, ointment, or drops), bucally, orally or as a nasal spray, etc. In certain embodiments, the compounds described herein can be administered orally or parenterally, one or more times daily, to achieve the desired therapeutic effect, at dosage levels of from about 0.01 mg / kg of subject body weight per day to about 50 mg / kg of subject body weight per day, preferably from about 1 mg / kg of subject body weight per day to about 25 mg / kg of subject body weight per day.

[0182] Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include, but are not limited to, pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs.In addition to the active compound, liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents, solubilizers and emulsifiers, such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, dimethylformamide, oils (especially cottonseed oil, peanut oil, corn oil, germ oil, olive oil, castor oil, and sesame oil), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, and mixtures thereof.In addition to inert diluents, oral compositions may also contain adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifiers and suspending agents, sweeteners, flavoring agents, and aromatic agents.

[0183] Injectable preparations, for example, sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions, can be formulated according to known techniques using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. Sterile injectable preparations can also be sterile injectable solutions, suspensions, or emulsions in non-toxic parenterally acceptable diluents or solvents, for example, as solutions in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that can be used are water, Ringer's solution, USP, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. Additionally, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally used as solvents or suspending media. For this purpose, bland, fixed oils, including synthetic monoglycerides or diglycerides, can be used.

[0185] To prolong the effect of the compounds described herein, it is often desirable to slow the absorption of the compounds from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This can be accomplished by using a suspension of crystalline or amorphous material with poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the compound then depends on its rate of dissolution, which may in turn depend on crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally administered compound form can be achieved by dissolving or suspending the compound in an oil vehicle. Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of the compound in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. The release rate of the compound can be controlled depending on the ratio of compound to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer used. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot injectable formulations can also be prepared by entrapping the compound in liposomes or microemulsions that are compatible with body tissues.

[0207] The compounds described herein can be incorporated into drugs that catalyze the destruction of CDK2, thereby inhibiting CDK2 function. For example, the compounds can be incorporated into proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs). PROTACs are bifunctional molecules, with one portion capable of binding to an E3 ubiquitin ligase and the other portion capable of binding to a target protein for degradation by cellular protein quality control mechanisms. Once the target protein is recruited to a specific E3 ligase, it is tagged for destruction (i.e., ubiquitination) and then degraded by the proteasome. Any E3 ligase can be used. The portion of the PROTAC that binds to the E3 ligase is linked to the portion of the PROTAC that binds to the target protein via a linker consisting of a variable chain of atoms. Thus, when CDK2 is recruited to the E3 ligase, the CDK2 protein is destroyed. The variable chain of atoms can include, for example, a ring, heteroatoms, and / or repeating polymer units. It can be rigid or flexible. It can be attached to the two moieties described above using standard techniques in the field of organic synthesis.

[0212] The structures of active compounds identified by code number, generic name, or trade name can be obtained from the current edition of the standard reference "The Merck Index," or from databases such as international patents (e.g., IMS World Publications).

[0213] The compounds described herein can also be used in combination with known therapeutic processes, such as the administration of hormones or radiation. In certain embodiments, provided compounds are used as radiosensitizers, particularly for the treatment of tumors that exhibit insufficient sensitivity to radiation therapy.

[0214] The compounds described herein can be administered alone or in combination with one or more other therapeutic compounds, possible combination therapy in the form of a fixed combination, or the administration of the compounds described herein, where one or more other therapeutic compounds are administered alternately or independently, or in the form of a fixed combination and one or more other therapeutic compounds. The compounds described herein can be administered in combination with, or in addition to, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, phototherapy, surgical intervention, or a combination thereof, particularly for tumor treatment. Long-term treatment is possible, as well as adjuvant therapy in conjunction with other treatment strategies, as described above. Other possible treatments include therapy to maintain the patient's condition after tumor regression, or even chemopreventive therapy, for example, for at-risk patients.

[0215] These additional agents can be administered separately from the compound-containing compositions provided as part of a multiple dose regimen. Alternatively, these agents can be part of a single dosage form, mixed together with the compounds described herein in a single composition. When administered as part of a multiple dose regimen, the two active agents can be administered simultaneously, sequentially, or within a certain period of each other, usually within 5 hours of each other.

[0216] As used herein, the terms "combination," "combined," and related terms refer to simultaneous or sequential administration of therapeutic agents according to the present disclosure. For example, a compound described herein can be administered simultaneously with another therapeutic agent, or sequentially in separate unit dosage forms, or together in a single unit dosage form. Thus, the present disclosure provides single unit dosage forms comprising a compound described herein, an additional therapeutic agent, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, adjuvant, or vehicle.

[0217] The amounts of both the compounds described herein and the additional therapeutic agent (in compositions containing such additional therapeutic agents) that may be combined with the carrier materials to produce a single dosage form will vary depending on the host treated and the particular mode of administration. Preferably, the compositions described herein should be formulated so that a dosage of 0.01 to 100 mg / kg body weight / day of the compounds described herein can be administered.

[0218] In those compositions that include an additional therapeutic agent, the additional therapeutic agent and the compound described herein may act synergistically. Thus, the amount of additional therapeutic agent in such compositions will be less than the amount required in a monotherapy utilizing only that therapeutic agent. In such compositions, the additional therapeutic agent can be administered in a dosage of 0.01 to 1,000 μg / kg body weight / day.

[0219] The amount of additional therapeutic agent present in the compositions described herein will not exceed the amount that would normally be administered in a composition comprising that agent as the only active agent. Preferably, the amount of additional therapeutic agent in the compositions of the invention will be in the range of about 50% to 100% of the amount that would normally be present in a composition comprising that agent as the only therapeutically active agent.

[0220] The compounds described herein or pharmaceutical compositions thereof can also be incorporated into compositions for coating implantable medical devices, such as prostheses, artificial valves, vascular grafts, stents, and catheters. For example, vascular stents are used to overcome restenosis (re-narrowing of the blood vessel wall after injury). However, patients using stents or other implantable devices are at risk of thrombus formation or platelet activation. These undesirable effects can be prevented or mitigated by pre-coating the device with a pharmaceutically acceptable composition containing a kinase inhibitor. The present disclosure also contemplates implantable devices coated with the compounds described herein.

[0221] Any of the compounds and / or compositions of the present disclosure may be provided in a kit comprising the compound and / or composition. Thus, in some embodiments, the compounds and / or compositions of the present disclosure are provided in a kit.
