Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to organic compounds useful for the treatment and / or prevention of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases or cancer, where the autoimmune and inflammatory diseases are selected from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), psoriasis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and the cancer is selected from oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, liver cancer, lung cancer, gastric cancer, and colon cancer. In particular, these molecules are capable of inhibiting pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDHK) and are useful for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. [Background technology]

[0002] 2. Background of the Invention Chronic inflammation is the underlying cause of a wide range of diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), among others. Patients with inflammatory diseases suffer from chronic pain, poor sleep quality, obesity, physical disability, and an overall poor quality of life. In the past decades, tremendous progress has been made to advance the treatment of inflammatory diseases, such as the discovery of cytokine-blocking antibodies and Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors. However, despite the increase in treatment options, there remains a high unmet medical need due to unsatisfactory response rates and limited efficacy. Thus, novel therapies with new modes of action are needed to break the ceiling of efficacy and provide sustained remission.

[0003] In recent years, there has been growing interest in immunometabolism as a promising field for the development of novel therapeutics. Metabolic changes are highly associated with cell activation and functionality during immune responses. Similar to the Warburg effect, immune cells transition to aerobic glycolysis upon activation to meet their increased energy and structural requirements for cell proliferation and effector functions. Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDHK), a member of the GHKL ATPase / kinase superfamily, is a key regulator in glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation via controlling the activity of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC). PDC catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA and represents a central node linking glycolysis with the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA). PDHK inhibits PDC activity by phosphorylating three serine residues on the E1 subunit (Korotchkina, LG et al. J Biol Chem 276, 37223-37229, 2001; Patel, MS et al. Biochem Soc Trans 34, 217-222, 2006). Inhibition of PDHK reverses the Warburg phenotype, as evidenced by decreased lactate production and increased glucose oxidation (Sun, RC et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat 120, 253-260, 2010; Wong, JY et al. Gynecol Oncol 109, 394-402, 2008).

[0004] CD4 + T cells play an important role in inflammatory or autoimmune diseases. Antigen exposure initially leads to T cell activation, inducing rapid growth and proliferation. Depending on the cytokine environment during activation, CD4 +T cells then differentiate into effector (Teff) (Th1 and Th17) or Treg subsets. Each of these subsets plays a unique role in the adaptive immune system, with Teff driving immunity and inflammation and Treg playing the opposite role, suppressing Teff to limit excessive inflammatory responses. The balance between Teff and Treg is important to provide sufficient immune protection without promoting autoimmunity. Indeed, many autoimmune diseases, including multiple sclerosis (MS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), involve an imbalance of Teff to Treg or reduced Treg function. Th17, in particular, plays an important pro-inflammatory role in many autoimmune diseases, including experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), IBD and graft-versus-host disease. Accumulating evidence indicates that PDHK plays a key role in immune cell function. Inhibition of PDHK1 selectively suppressed Th17 cells, increased Tregs, and protected animals from colitis and EAE (Gerriets, VA et al. J Clin Invest 125, 194-207, 2015). Knockdown of PDHK inhibited inflammatory macrophage (M1) polarization and inflammatory cytokine production, while promoting the expression of regulatory macrophage (M2) signature genes (Tan, Z. et al. J Immunol 194, 6082-6089, 2015). Furthermore, inhibition of PDHK suppressed B cell proliferation and antibody secretion (Caro-Maldonado, A. et al. J Immunol 192, 3626-3636, 2014). Taken together, PDHK inhibition is expected to control immune cell activation, thus presenting a promising therapeutic target for autoimmune and inflammatory diseases driven by T cells, B cells, and macrophages. Therefore, the inventors have invented oral compounds that inhibit PDHK to improve treatment outcomes for patients with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as IBD, COPD, IPF, psoriasis and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).A significant body of evidence points to the important role of PDHK in cancers with glycolytic phenotypes, in addition to inflammatory diseases (Lu, CW. et al. Am J Pathol 179(3), 1405-1414, 2011; Chatterjee, N. et al. Cell Rep 28(9):2317-2330, 2019; Golias, T. et al. Sci Rep 6:31146, 2016). Therefore, the PDHK inhibitor invented by the present inventors is applicable to cancer treatment, including oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (Golias, T. et al. Sci Rep 6:31146, 2016), liver cancer, lung cancer, gastric cancer (Shao et al. Cancer Commun, 39:54, 2019), and colon cancer (Lu, CW. et al. Am J Pathol 179(3), 1405-1414). Summary of the Invention

[0041] Pharmaceutical Compositions and Administration Another embodiment provides pharmaceutical compositions or medicaments containing the compounds of the invention and therapeutically inert carriers, diluents or excipients, as well as methods of using the compounds of the invention to prepare such compositions and medicaments. In one example, the compounds of formula (I) can be formulated into galenical dosage forms by mixing at ambient temperature, at an appropriate pH, and at the desired degree of purity with a physiologically acceptable carrier, i.e., a carrier that is non-toxic to the recipient at the dosage and concentration used. The pH of the formulation will depend primarily on the particular use and the concentration of the compound, but is preferably anywhere in the range of about 3 to about 8. In one example, the compounds of formula (I) are formulated in acetate buffer at pH 5. In another embodiment, the compounds of formula (I) are sterile. The compounds can be stored, for example, as solid or amorphous compositions, as lyophilized formulations, or as aqueous solutions.

[0042] The composition is formulated, dosed and administered in a manner consistent with good medical practice.Factors to be considered in this context include the specific disorder to be treated, the specific mammal to be treated, the clinical symptoms of individual patients, the cause of the disorder, the delivery site of the drug, the method of administration, the administration schedule, and other factors known to medical professionals.The "effective amount" of the compound to be administered is governed by such considerations and is the minimum amount required to inhibit the phosphorylation of the E1 subunit of PDC by PDHK1.For example, such amount may be below the amount that is toxic to normal cells or to the mammal as a whole.

[0043] In one example, a pharma- ceutical effective amount of a compound of the invention administered parenterally per dose will range from about 0.01-100 mg / kg of patient body weight, alternatively about 0.1-20 mg / kg of patient body weight per day, with a typical initial range of the compound used being 0.3-15 mg / kg / day. In another embodiment, oral unit dosage forms such as tablets and capsules preferably contain about 25-100 mg of a compound of the invention.

[0044] The compounds of the present invention may be administered by any suitable means, including oral, topical (including buccal and sublingual), rectal, vaginal, transdermal, parenteral, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, intrapulmonary, intradermal, intrathecal and epidural and intranasal, and, where localized treatment is desired, intralesional administration. Parenteral administration includes intramuscular, intravenous, intraarterial, intraperitoneal or subcutaneous administration.

[0045] The compounds of the present invention may be administered in any convenient dosage form, such as tablets, powders, capsules, solutions, dispersions, suspensions, syrups, sprays, suppositories, gels, emulsions, patches, etc. Such compositions may contain conventional components of pharmaceuticals, such as diluents, carriers, pH adjusters, sweeteners, fillers, and additional active agents.

[0046] Typical preparation is prepared by mixing the compound of the present invention and carrier or excipient.Suitable carrier and excipient are well known to those skilled in the art and are described in detail in, for example, Ansel, Howard C. et al., Ansel's Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms and Drug Delivery Systems.Philadelphia: Lippincott, Williams&Wilkins, 2004;Gennaro, Alfonso R. et al., Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy.Philadelphia: Lippincott, Williams&Wilkins, 2000;and Rowe, Raymond C.Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients.Chicago, Pharmaceutical Press, 2005. The formulation may also include one or more buffers, stabilizers, surfactants, wetting agents, lubricants, emulsifiers, suspending agents, preservatives, antioxidants, opacifiers, glidants, processing aids, colorants, sweeteners, aromas, flavorings, diluents, and other known additives to provide for superior presentation of the drug (i.e., the compound of the present invention or a pharmaceutical composition thereof) or to aid in the manufacture of a pharmaceutical product (i.e., a medicament).

[0047] An example of a suitable oral dosage form is a tablet containing about 25 mg to 500 mg of the compound of the present invention, formulated with about 30 to 90 mg of anhydrous lactose, about 5 to 40 mg of croscarmellose sodium, about 5 to 30 mg of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) K30, and about 1 to 10 mg of magnesium stearate. The powdered ingredients are first mixed together and then mixed with a solution of PVP. The resulting composition can be dried, granulated, mixed with magnesium stearate, and compressed into tablet form using conventional equipment. An example of an aerosol formulation can be prepared by dissolving, for example, 5 to 400 mg of the compound of the present invention in a suitable buffer solution, for example, phosphate buffer, and adding an isotonicity agent, for example, a salt such as sodium chloride, if desired. The solution can be filtered, for example, using a 0.2 micron filter, to remove impurities and contaminants.

[0048] Thus, certain embodiments include pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of formula (I), or a stereoisomer or pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof. Further embodiments include pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of formula (I), or a stereoisomer or pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, together with a pharma- ceutically acceptable carrier or excipient.

[0496] Biological Example Example 64: 50% inhibitory concentration (IC of in vitro PDHK1 activity 50 ) The inhibitory potency of compounds on PDHK1 activity was determined by enzyme assay. Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHc) is an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction of pyruvate with lipoamide to give acetylated dihydrolipoamide and carbon dioxide. PDHc has three subunits E1, E2 and E3. E1 has three serine phosphorylation sites S293, S232 and S300. When E1 is phosphorylated, PDH is inactivated. PDHK can phosphorylate and inactivate the PDH protein (also called PDHE1) in the PDH complex (PDC). For the PDHK1 enzyme assay, the final reaction mixture contained 1 nM PDHK1 (purified in-house from Escherichia coli), 25 nM PDHE1 (purified in-house from Escherichia coli) and 20 μM ATP, and the experiment was run at 30°C for 45 min. After adding the detection reagents AlphaScreen Histidine (nickel chelate, Perkin Elmer) and anti-phosphorylated s-293 ​​antibody (Abcam), anti-rabbit IgGα (Perkin Elmer), the plates were incubated at 30°C for 60 min, and then the light changes were measured using a luminometer (Envision).
