Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and methods of use thereof. In particular, such methods of use include, for example, methods of treating HIV and methods of preventing HIV. [Background technology]

[0002] Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection leads to the development of acquired immunodeficiency disease (AIDS). The number of HIV cases continues to increase, and an estimated 35 million people worldwide are currently living with HIV infection (e.g., http: / / www.sciencedirect.com / science / article / pii / S235230181630087X?via%3Dihub).

[0003] Currently, long-term suppression of viral replication with antiretroviral drugs is the only option for treating HIV-1 infection. In fact, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved 25 drugs across six different inhibitor classes, which have been shown to significantly improve patient survival and quality of life. However, due to multiple issues, including but not limited to, undesirable drug-drug interactions, drug-food interactions, non-adherence to therapy, drug resistance due to mutations in enzyme targets, and inflammation associated with immunological damage caused by HIV infection, additional therapies are still considered necessary.

[0004] Currently, almost all HIV-positive patients are treated with a combination of antiretroviral drugs, a treatment regimen called highly active antiretroviral therapy ("HAART"). However, HAART therapy is frequently complicated because different drug combinations must be administered to patients almost daily to avoid the rapid emergence of drug-resistant HIV-1 variants. Despite the positive impact of HAART on patient survival, drug resistance can still occur, and survival and quality of life have not normalized compared with uninfected individuals [Lohse Ann Intern Med 2007 146;87-95]. In fact, the morbidity and mortality of several non-AIDS conditions, such as cardiovascular disease, frailty, and neurocognitive disorders, are increased in HIV-infected subjects who are suppressed by HAART [Deeks Annu Rev Med 2011;62:141-155]. The increased incidence of non-AIDS morbidity and mortality occurs in association with and may be caused by elevated systemic inflammation associated with immunological damage caused by HIV infection [Hunt J Infect Dis 2014][Byakagwa J Infect Dis 2014][Tenorio J Infect Dis 2014].

[0005] Current antiretroviral therapy (ART) can effectively suppress HIV replication and improve the health of HIV-infected individuals, but it is believed that it cannot completely eliminate the HIV viral reservoir within an individual. The HIV genome remains latent within most immune cells of infected individuals and can reactivate at any time. Consequently, viral replication typically resumes within a few weeks after ART is discontinued. In a minority of individuals, the size of this viral reservoir is significantly reduced, delaying the rebound of viral replication upon ART cessation [Henrich TJ J Infect Dis 2013] [Henrich TJ Ann Intern Med 2014]. In one case, the viral reservoir was eliminated during treatment for leukemia, and no viral rebound was observed during several years of follow-up [Hutter GN Engl J Med 2009]. These examples suggest the concept that the viral reservoir may be reduced or eliminated, potentially leading to viral remission or cure. As a result, methods have been pursued to eliminate the viral reservoir by direct molecular means, such as by excising the viral genome using the CRISPR / Cas9 system, or to induce reactivation of the latent reservoir during ART, thereby eliminating latent cells. Induction of the latent reservoir typically involves direct death of latently infected cells or the immune system killing the induced cells after the virus becomes visible. Because this occurs during ART, it is believed that the generated viral genomes do not infect new cells, thereby reducing the size of the reservoir.

[0006] HAART therapy is frequently complex because different drug combinations must be administered to patients almost daily to avoid the rapid emergence of drug-resistant HIV-1 variants. Despite the positive impact of HAART on patient survival, drug resistance can still occur.

[0007] Current guidelines recommend that treatment include three fully effective drugs. See, for example, https: / / aidsinfo.nih.gov / guidelines. Furthermore, two-drug combinations can be used as treatment regimens. First-line therapy typically combines two to three drugs targeting the viral enzymes reverse transcriptase and integrase. It is believed that sustained success in treating HIV-1-infected patients with antiretroviral drugs requires the continued development of new, improved drugs that are effective against HIV strains that have developed resistance to approved drugs. For example, individuals on regimens containing 3TC / FTC (lamivudine / emtricitabine) may exhibit the M184V mutation, which reduces susceptibility to these drugs by more than 100-fold. See, for example, https: / / hivdb.stanford.edu / dr-summary / resistance-notes / NRTIs

[0008] Another approach to preventing mutations is to increase patient adherence to drug regimens. One way to achieve this is to reduce the frequency of administration. For parenteral administration, it is considered advantageous to have a highly lipophilic drug substance to reduce solubility and limit the release rate in interstitial fluid. However, the hydrophilicity of most nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors may limit their use as long-acting parenteral agents.

[0009] There remains a need for compounds that can address the above shortcomings. Summary of the Invention

[0104] In a further embodiment, the compound of the invention of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is selected from the group of compounds set forth in Table 1 above.

[0105] The compounds in Table 1 were synthesized according to the synthetic methods, general schemes and examples described below.

[0106] In another embodiment, there is provided a pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent and a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0107] In certain embodiments, the compound of the invention, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is selected from the compounds set forth in Table 1.

[0108] The compounds of formula (I) of the present invention may be in both unsolvated and solvated forms. The term "solvate" includes a compound of the present invention in combination with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable solvent molecules, such as ethanol. The term "hydrate" is used when the solvent is water. Pharmaceutically acceptable solvates include hydrates and other solvates in which the solvent of crystallization may be isotopically substituted (e.g., DO, d-acetone, d-DMSO).

[0109] Compounds of formula (I) containing one or more asymmetric carbon atoms can exist in two or more stereoisomers. When a compound of formula (I) contains an alkenyl group, an alkenylene group, or a cycloalkyl group, geometric cis / trans (or Z / E) isomers are possible. When a compound contains, for example, a keto group, an oxime group, or an aromatic moiety, tautomeric isomerism ("tautomerism") can occur. A single compound can exhibit two or more types of isomerism.

[0110] Included within the scope of the claimed compounds of the invention are all stereoisomeric, geometric isomeric, and tautomeric forms of the compounds of formula (I), e.g., compounds exhibiting more than one type of isomerism, and mixtures of one or more thereof. Also included are acid or base addition salts in which the counterion is optically active, e.g., D-lactate or L-lysine, or racemic, e.g., DL-tartrate or DL-arginine.

[0111] Cis / trans isomers may be separated by conventional techniques well known to those skilled in the art, such as chromatography and fractional crystallization.

[0112] Conventional techniques for the preparation / isolation of separate enantiomers include chiral synthesis from suitable optically pure precursors, or resolution of the racemate (or racemate of a salt or derivative), e.g., using chiral high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC).

[0113] Alternatively, the racemate (or racemic precursor) may be reacted with a suitable optically active compound, such as an alcohol, or, if the compound of formula (I) contains an acidic or basic moiety, with an acid or base, such as tartaric acid or 1-phenylethylamine. The resulting diastereomeric mixture may be separated by chromatography and / or fractional crystallization, and one or both of the diastereoisomers may be converted into the corresponding pure enantiomer(s) by means well known to those skilled in the art.

[0114] The chiral compounds of the invention (and their chiral precursors) may be obtained in enantiomerically enriched form by chromatography, typically HPLC or SFC, on a resin having an asymmetric stationary phase, using a mobile phase consisting of a hydrocarbon, typically heptane or hexane, containing 0-50%, typically 2-20%, isopropanol, and 0-5% alkylamine, typically 0.1% diethylamine. Concentration of the eluent yields the enriched mixture.

[0115] Mixtures of stereoisomers may be separated by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art (see, for example, "Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds" by EL Eliel (Wiley, New York, 1994)).

[0116] The present invention includes all pharmaceutically acceptable isotopically labeled compounds of formula (I) where one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having the same atomic number but an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature.

[0117] Examples of isotopes that are suitable for compounds of the present invention to contain include isotopes of hydrogen (e.g., 2 H and 3 H), isotopes of carbon (e.g., 11 C. 13 C and 14 C), isotopes of chlorine (e.g., 36 Cl), isotopes of fluorine (e.g., 18 F), isotopes of iodine (e.g., 123 I and 125 I), isotopes of nitrogen (e.g., 13 N and 15 N), isotopes of oxygen (e.g., 15 O. 17 O and 18 O), isotopes of phosphorus (e.g., 32 P) and sulfur isotopes (e.g., 35 S) are mentioned.

[0118] Certain isotopically labeled compounds of formula (I), for example, compounds incorporating a radioactive isotope, are useful in drug and / or substrate tissue distribution studies. 3 H) and carbon-14 (i.e., 14 C) is particularly useful for this purpose given its ease of incorporation and ready means of detection. Heavy isotopes, such as deuterium (i.e., 2 H) may confer certain therapeutic benefits resulting from greater metabolic stability, such as increased half-life in vivo or reduced dosage requirements, and therefore may be preferable in some situations.

[0119] Isotopically labeled compounds of formula (I) may generally be prepared by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art, or by processes analogous to those described herein, substituting an appropriate isotopically labeled reagent for the previously used non-labeled reagent.

[0120] The compounds of the present invention may be administered as prodrugs. Thus, certain derivatives of the compound of formula (I), which may have little or no pharmacological activity themselves, can be converted to the compound of formula (I) as a "prodrug" when administered to or on the body. An example of a compound that may be included in such a prodrug is 4'-ethylnyl-2-fluoro-2'-deoxyadenosine (EFdA), described, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 7,339,053. The compounds of the present invention may be administered as prodrugs. In one embodiment, the compounds of the present invention are prodrugs of 4'-ethynyl-2-fluoro-2'-deoxyadenosine (EFdA), described, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 7,339,053, which is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor having the following formula:

[0121] [ka]

[0122] Prodrugs are useful in that they are believed to be able to tailor physicochemical properties, facilitate multiple administration paradigms, and improve the pharmacokinetic and / or pharmacodynamic profile of the active parent (EFdA). For example, compared to EFdA, the prodrug may facilitate a longer-acting parenteral administration mode and / or improved antiviral durability.

[0123] Administration of the chemical entities and chemical combinations described herein can be via any of the modes of administration accepted for drugs with similar utilities, including, but not limited to, oral, sublingual, subcutaneous, intravenous, intranasal, topical, transdermal, intraperitoneal, intramuscular, pulmonary, vaginal, rectal, or intraocular. In some embodiments, oral or parenteral administration is used. Examples of administration include, but are not limited to, oral once every seven days, intramuscular once every eight weeks, or subcutaneous once every six months.

[0124] Pharmaceutical compositions or formulations include solid, semi-solid, liquid, and aerosol dosage forms, such as tablets, capsules, powders, solutions, suspensions, suppositories, aerosols, etc. Chemical entities may also be administered in sustained- or controlled-release dosage forms, such as depot injections, osmotic pumps, pills, transdermal (e.g., electrotransport) patches, etc., for prolonged administration at a predetermined rate and / or for timed pulse administration. In certain embodiments, the compositions are provided in unit dosage forms suitable for single administration of precise doses.

[0125] The chemical entities described herein may be administered alone or, more typically, in combination with conventional pharmaceutical carriers, excipients, and the like (e.g., mannitol, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, sodium saccharin, talcum, cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, glucose, gelatin, sucrose, magnesium carbonate, and the like). If desired, the pharmaceutical compositions can also contain minor amounts of nontoxic auxiliary substances, such as wetting agents, emulsifying agents, solubilizing agents, pH buffering agents, and the like (e.g., sodium acetate, sodium citrate, cyclodextrin derivatives, sorbitan monolaurate, triethanolamine acetate, triethanolamine oleate, and the like). Generally, depending on the intended mode of administration, pharmaceutical compositions contain about 0.005 to 95% by weight of the chemical entities; in certain embodiments, about 0.5 to 50% by weight. Actual methods for preparing such dosage forms are known or will be apparent to those skilled in the art. See, e.g., Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pennsylvania.

[0126] In certain embodiments, the composition takes the form of a pill or tablet, and thus comprises the active ingredient together with diluents such as lactose, sucrose, dicalcium phosphate, etc.; lubricants such as magnesium stearate, etc.; and binders such as starch, acacia gum, polyvinylpyrrolidine, gelatin, cellulose, cellulose derivatives, etc. In another solid dosage form, a powder, marume, solution, or suspension (e.g., in propylene carbonate, vegetable oils, or triglycerides) is encapsulated in a gelatin capsule.

[0127] For example, pharmaceutically administrable liquid compositions can be prepared by dissolving, dispersing, or otherwise forming a solution or suspension of at least one chemical and optional pharmaceutical adjuvants in a carrier (e.g., water, saline, aqueous dextrose, glycerol, glycol, ethanol, etc.). Injectables can be prepared in conventional forms, such as liquid solutions or suspensions, emulsions, or solid forms suitable for dissolution or suspension in liquid prior to injection. The percentage of chemical contained in such parenteral compositions will largely depend on the specific nature of the chemical, as well as the activity of the chemical and the needs of the subject. However, the percentage of active ingredient can be used in solution at 0.01% to 10%, and higher percentages of active ingredient can be used when the composition is a solid that is subsequently diluted to the above percentages. In certain embodiments, the composition may contain about 0.2 to 2% active ingredient in solution.

[0128] Pharmaceutical compositions of the chemical entities described herein may also be administered to the respiratory tract as an aerosol or solution for a nebulizer, or as a microfine powder for insufflation, either alone or in combination with an inert carrier, such as lactose, In such cases, the particles of the pharmaceutical composition have diameters of less than 50 μm, and in certain embodiments, less than 10 μm.

[0129] Generally, the chemical substance provided is administered in a therapeutically effective amount by any of the accepted modes of administration for drugs with similar utilities. The actual amount of the chemical substance, i.e., the active ingredient, depends on many factors, such as the severity of the disease being treated, the age and relative health of the subject, the potency of the chemical substance used, the route of administration, the dosage form, and other factors. The drug can be administered once or more times a day, for example, once or twice a day.

[0130] Generally, chemicals are administered as pharmaceutical compositions by any one of the following routes: oral administration, systemic administration (e.g., transdermal, intranasal, or via suppository), or parenteral administration (e.g., intramuscular, intravenous, or subcutaneous). In certain embodiments, oral administration may be used with a convenient daily dosage regimen that can be adjusted according to the severity of the affliction. The composition may take the form of a tablet, pill, capsule, semisolid, powder, sustained-release formulation, solution, suspension, elixir, aerosol, or any other suitable composition. Another mode for administering provided chemicals is inhalation.

[0131] The choice of formulation depends on various factors, such as the mode of drug administration and the bioavailability of the drug substance. For delivery by inhalation, chemicals can be formulated as liquid solutions, suspensions, aerosol propellants, or dry powders and loaded into a suitable dispenser for administration. Several types of pharmaceutical inhalation devices exist: nebulizer inhalers, metered-dose inhalers (MDIs), and dry-powder inhalers (DPIs). Nebulizer devices produce a high-velocity air stream that causes the therapeutic agent (formulated in liquid form) to spray as a mist that is carried to the patient's respiratory tract. MDIs are typically formulations packaged with compressed gas. Upon actuation, the device releases a measured amount of therapeutic agent via compressed gas, thus providing a reliable method of administering a set amount of medication. DPIs dispense the therapeutic agent in the form of a free-flowing powder, which the device can disperse into the patient's inspiratory airstream upon breathing. To achieve a free-flowing powder, the therapeutic agent is formulated with an excipient, such as lactose. A measured amount of therapeutic agent is stored in a capsule form and dispensed with each actuation.

[0132] In recent years, pharmaceutical compositions for drugs with poor bioavailability have been developed based on the principle that bioavailability can be increased by increasing the surface area, i.e., by reducing particle size. For example, U.S. Patent No. 4,107,288 describes a pharmaceutical formulation having particles in the size range of 10 to 1,000 nm in which the active substance is supported on a crosslinked polymer matrix. U.S. Patent No. 5,145,684 describes the preparation of a pharmaceutical formulation in which the drug substance is milled into nanoparticles (average particle size 400 nm) in the presence of a surface modifier and then dispersed in a liquid medium to obtain a pharmaceutical formulation with significantly higher bioavailability.

[0133] The compositions generally comprise at least one chemical entity described herein in combination with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. Acceptable excipients are non-toxic, aid in administration, and do not adversely affect the therapeutic benefit of at least one chemical entity described herein. Such excipients may be any solid, liquid, semi-solid, or, in the case of aerosol compositions, gaseous excipients generally available to those skilled in the art.

[0134] Solid pharmaceutical excipients include starch, cellulose, talc, glucose, lactose, sucrose, gelatin, malt, rice, wheat flour, chalk, silica gel, magnesium stearate, sodium stearate, glycerol monostearate, sodium chloride, dried skim milk, etc. Liquid and semi-solid excipients may be selected from glycerol, propylene glycol, water, ethanol, and various oils, such as those of petroleum, animal, vegetable, or synthetic origin, for example, peanut oil, soybean oil, mineral oil, sesame oil, etc. Liquid carriers for injectable solutions include water, saline, aqueous dextrose, and glycols.

[0135] Compressed gases may be used to disperse the chemical entities described herein in aerosol form. Suitable inert gases for this purpose include nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and the like. Other suitable pharmaceutical excipients and their formulations are described in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, edited by E. W. Martin (Mack Publishing Company, 18th ed., 1990).

[0136] The amount of chemicals in the composition can vary within the full range used by those skilled in the art. Typically, the composition will contain, on a weight percent (wt%) basis, about 0.01 to 99.99 wt% of at least one chemical described herein based on the total composition, with the remainder being one or more suitable pharmaceutical excipients. In certain embodiments, at least one chemical described herein is present at a level of about 1 to 80 wt%.

[0137] In various embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention include compounds of formula (I), salts thereof, and combinations of the above.

[0138] Synthesis method The synthetic methods may employ readily available starting materials using the following general methods and procedures. Where typical or preferred process conditions (i.e., reaction temperatures, times, molar ratios of reactants, solvents, pressures, etc.) are given, it is understood that other process conditions can also be used unless otherwise stated. Optimum reaction conditions may vary with the particular reactants or solvents used, but such conditions can be determined by one skilled in the art by routine optimization procedures.

[0139] Furthermore, the methods of the present invention can use protecting groups that prevent certain functional groups from undergoing undesired reactions. Suitable protecting groups for various functional groups, as well as suitable conditions for protecting and deprotecting particular functional groups, are well known in the art. For example, numerous protecting groups are described in T.W. Greene and G.M.Wuts, Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, 3rd Edition, Wiley, New York, 1999, and references cited therein.

[0140] Additionally, provided chemical compounds may contain one or more chiral centers, and such compounds can be prepared or isolated as pure stereoisomers, i.e., as separate enantiomers or diastereomers, or as stereoisomer-enriched mixtures. All such stereoisomers (and enriched mixtures) are encompassed within the scope of this specification, unless otherwise indicated. Pure stereoisomers (or enriched mixtures) can be prepared using, for example, optically active starting materials or stereoselective reagents well-known in the art. Alternatively, racemic mixtures of such compounds can be separated using, for example, chiral column chromatography, chiral resolving agents, etc.

[0141] The compounds of formula (I) herein, including those in Examples 1-16, contain a phosphorus chiral center. The isomeric mixtures in each of Examples 1-16 were separated to obtain isomer #A, e.g., isomer 1A (the faster-eluting isomer), and isomer #B, e.g., isomer 1B (the slower-eluting isomer), based on their elution order observed in the separations performed in the Examples. Retention times, if provided, are provided solely to indicate the relative elution order of each isomer in the Examples. The elution order of the separated isomers may differ if performed under conditions different from those used herein. The absolute stereochemistry (R or S) of the phosphorus chiral center in each of the "A" and "B" stereoisomers in Examples 1-16 was not determined. Asterisks ( *) is sometimes used to indicate the chiral center at phosphorus in the relevant chemical structure diagrams of the example compounds.

[0142] The starting materials for the following reactions are generally known compounds or can be prepared by known procedures or obvious modifications thereof. For example, many of the starting materials are available from commercial sources, such as Aldrich Chemical Co. (Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA), Bachem (Torrance, California, USA), Ernka-Chemce, or Sigma (St. Louis, Missouri, USA). Other starting materials can be prepared by procedures described in standard reference texts, such as Fieser and Fieser's Reagents for Organic Synthesis, Volumes 1-15 (John Wiley and Sons, 1991), Rodd's Chemistry of Carbon Compounds, Volumes 1-5 and supplements (Elsevier Science Publishers, 1989), Organic Reactions, Volumes 1-40 (John Wiley and Sons, 1991), March's Advanced Organic Chemistry (John Wiley and Sons, 4th Edition), and Larock's Comprehensive Organic Transformations (VCH Publishers Inc., 1989), or obvious modifications thereof.

[0143] Unless stated to the contrary, reactions described herein may be carried out at atmospheric pressure, generally within a temperature range of −78° C. to 200° C. Furthermore, unless used in the examples or otherwise specified, reaction times and conditions are intended to be approximate, e.g., at approximately atmospheric pressure, within a temperature range of about −78° C. to about 110° C., for about 1 to about 24 hours, with the reaction being carried out overnight, averaging about 16 hours.

[0144] The terms "solvent," "organic solvent," and "inert solvent" each mean a solvent that is inert under the conditions of the reaction being described therewith, such as, for example, benzene, toluene, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuranyl ("THF"), dimethylformamide ("DMF"), chloroform, methylene chloride (or dichloromethane or DCM), diethyl ether, methanol, N-methylpyrrolidone ("NMP"), pyridine, and the like.

[0145] Isolation and purification of the chemicals and intermediates described herein, if desired, can be carried out by any suitable separation or purification procedure, such as filtration, extraction, crystallization, column chromatography, thin layer chromatography, thick layer chromatography, or a combination of these procedures. Specific illustrations of suitable separation and isolation procedures can be found in the examples herein below. However, other equivalent separation or isolation procedures can also be used.

[0146] If desired, the (R)- and (S)-isomers can be resolved by methods known to those skilled in the art, for example, by the formation of diastereomeric salts or complexes that are separable (e.g., by crystallization); through the formation of diastereomeric derivatives that are separable (e.g., by crystallization, gas-liquid chromatography, or liquid chromatography); by the selective reaction of one enantiomer with an enantiomer-specific reagent (e.g., enzymatic oxidation or reduction) followed by separation of the altered and unaltered enantiomers; or by gas-liquid chromatography or liquid chromatography in a chiral environment (e.g., on a chiral support, e.g., silica with bound chiral ligands, or in the presence of a chiral solvent). Alternatively, specific enantiomers can be synthesized by asymmetric synthesis using optically active reagents, substrates, catalysts, or solvents, or by converting one enantiomer to the other by asymmetric transformation.
