AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current therapies are ineffective for tauopathies, a group of neurodegenerative diseases characterized by the accumulation and aggregation of aberrant microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT), leading to neurofibrillary tangles and glial pathology, with no disease-modifying treatments available.

Method used

The use of substituted thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine compounds that induce exon 10 skipping in MAPT pre-mRNA splicing, resulting in the production of MAPT ΔE4 mRNA, which is degraded and reduces MAPT 4R protein levels, thereby mitigating tau pathology.

Benefits of technology

The compounds effectively reduce MAPT 4R protein levels, potentially slowing or halting the progression of tauopathies by targeting the underlying splicing mechanism, offering a disease-modifying treatment approach.

[Technical field]

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims the benefit of and priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 260,944, filed September 7, 2021, the contents of which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety for all purposes. The present specification relates to methods of treating neurodegenerative diseases characterized by the accumulation of abnormal microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) using substituted thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine compounds, forms thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions. [Background technology]

[0002] Tauopathies are a group of neurodegenerative diseases characterized by the accumulation and aggregation of abnormal forms of the microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT), leading to the formation of neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) and paired helical filaments (PHFs) in neurons and glia in affected brain regions. Tau accumulation and aggregation are the primary pathological feature of more than 18 irreversible neurodegenerative disorders, collectively referred to as tauopathies. These diseases include frontotemporal dementia (FTD), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and Alzheimer's disease (AD), which can be sporadic or hereditary when caused by mutations in the MAPT gene1. Tauopathies account for 10-20% of all dementia cases and are estimated to affect approximately 55,000 people in the United States. Currently, there are no effective disease-modifying therapies, and few experimental drugs focused on tau have undergone clinical trials.

[0003] Tau protein is encoded by the MAPT gene located on chromosome 17q21 and is necessary for the stabilization and assembly of microtubules. Microtubules are important for axonal transport and maintaining the structural integrity of cells. In the adult brain, tau is found in neurons, mostly in axons. Tau is also found in oligodendrocytes and astrocytes, and its function is similar to that in neurons. Binding of tau to microtubules can induce conformational changes in the protein. In its normal form, tau is unfolded and phosphorylated. In the brains of patients with primary tauopathy, tau is hyperphosphorylated, has a folded beta-pleated sheet structure, and undergoes aggregation. Binding of tau to microtubules is regulated by the phosphorylation / dephosphorylation ratio. Hyperphosphorylation of tau results in loss of microtubule interactions, leading to microtubule dysfunction and impaired axonal transport as well as fibrillization of tau. Recently, it has been suggested that the proportion of tau sequences that are phosphorylated, rather than the number of phosphorylated epitopes on each tau sequence, predicts the extent of NFT aggregation and formation.

[0004] There are six isoforms of tau expressed in the adult brain. These six isoforms result from alternative splicing of three N-terminal exons in the tau gene: exon 2, exon 3, and exon 10. Three of the six isoforms result from splicing in of exon 10, whereas the other three are the result of splicing out of exon 10. Splicing in of exon 10 results in an isoform with four repeated microtubule-binding domains (4R tau), whereas splicing out of exon 10 results in an isoform with three repeated microtubule-binding domains (3R tau). This is important because healthy human brain consists of equal amounts of tau with three and four repeat microtubule-binding domains, whereas some primary tauopathies are characterized by a predominance of isoforms with four repeat microtubule-binding domains (4R tauopathies), some by a predominance of isoforms with three repeat microtubule-binding domains (3R tauopathies), and some by a roughly equal mixture of isoforms with three and four repeat microtubule-binding domains (3R+4R tauopathies). Tau neurofibrillary tangles in disease have distinct isoform compositions, suggesting that splicing is an important target for potential therapeutics.

[0005] MAPT mutations affecting the splicing of exons 2 and 3 are very rare, whereas pathogenic mutations in exon 10 and the exon 10-intron 10 boundary region are more common, representing approximately 27% of all known tau mutations. Most pathogenic mutations result in missplicing, which in most cases results in inclusion of exon 10 and increases 4R tau expression. The present disclosure relates to the use of compounds of formula (I) or forms or compositions thereof for treating tauopathy. These sets of compounds induce exon 10 skipping in MAPT pre-mRNA during the splicing process. Exon 10 skipping of MAPT mRNA changes the open reading frame (ORF) and creates a premature stop codon (PTC) in the exon 10-skipped mRNA (ΔE4 mRNA) of MAPT4R. It has been shown that such exon skipping splicing events can function to reduce gene expression by creating mRNA with a premature stop codon, thereby signaling the mRNA to be degraded instead of being translated into protein. Similarly, MAPT ΔE4 mRNA produced in the presence of these compounds undergoes mRNA degradation, resulting in a decrease in the level of MAPT 4R mRNA, resulting in MAPT4R protein reduction.

[0006] International Publication No. WO2016 / 115434 discloses kinetin derivatives useful for improving mRNA splicing in cells, particularly for improving mRNA splicing in genes with at least one exon end in nucleotide sequence CAA, such as IKBKAP gene.The disclosed compounds can be used to treat diseases of the central nervous system, such as familial dysautonomia. To date, there are no disease-modifying therapies available for tauopathies, and improved methods and compositions for treating tauopathies and their associated symptoms are needed. International Publication No. WO2020 / 167624 discloses substituted pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine compounds useful for therapeutic targeting of the pre-mRNA splicing mechanism in the IKBKAP gene and for treating familial dysautonomia. Neither application discloses compounds that induce exon 10 skipping in MAPT pre-mRNA splicing. In addition, neither application discloses compounds that cause MAPT protein reduction, particularly MAPT protein reduction due to mRNA degradation of MAPT 4R mRNA produced in the presence of the compound. Furthermore, neither application discloses compounds that are useful for treating tauopathies.

[0007] The compounds described herein are potential MAPT pre-mRNA splicing compounds that can be used as disease-modifying treatments for a variety of tauopathies. All other documents referenced herein are incorporated by reference into this application as if fully set forth herein. Summary of the Invention

The compounds described herein may contain one or more chiral centers and therefore may exist as racemic mixtures (R / S) or as substantially pure enantiomers and diastereomers. The compounds may also exist as substantially pure (R) or (S) enantiomers (if one chiral center is present). In one particular embodiment, the compounds described herein are (S) isomers and may exist as enantiomerically pure compositions that substantially contain only the (S) isomer. In another particular embodiment, the compounds described herein are (R) isomers and may exist as enantiomerically pure compositions that substantially contain only the (R) isomer. As one of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate, if two or more chiral centers are present, the compounds described herein may also exist as (R,R), (R,S), (S,R) or (S,S) isomers as defined by the IUPAC nomenclature recommendations.

[0087] As used herein, the term "chiral" refers to a carbon atom that is bonded to four non-identical substituents. Stereochemical definitions and conventions used herein generally follow SP Parker, Ed., McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Chemical Terms (1984) McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York; and Eliel, E. and Wilen, S., "Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds", John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, 1994. In describing optically active compounds, the prefixes D and L, or R and S, are used to represent the absolute configuration of the molecule around its chiral center. The substituents attached to the chiral center under consideration are ranked according to the Cahn, Ingold and Prelog ranking rules. (Cahn et al. Angew. Chem. Inter. Edit. 1966, 5, 385; errata 511).

[0088] As used herein, the term "substantially pure" refers to a compound that consists essentially of 90% or more, 92% or more, 95% or more, 98% or more, 99% or more, or equal to 100% of a single isomer. In one aspect herein, the compound of formula (I) or a form thereof is a substantially pure (S) enantiomeric form present in an amount of 90% or more, 92% or more, 95% or more, 98% or more, 99% or more, or an amount equal to 100%. In one aspect herein, the compound of formula (I) or a form thereof is a substantially pure (R) enantiomeric form present in an amount of 90% or more, in an amount of 92% or more, in an amount of 95% or more, in an amount of 98% or more, in an amount of 99% or more, or in an amount equal to 100%. As used herein, a "racemate" is any mixture of isometric forms that is not "enantiomerically pure," including, but not limited to, mixtures in ratios of about 50 / 50, about 60 / 40, about 70 / 30, or about 80 / 20.

[0089] In addition, the present specification embraces all geometric and positional isomers. For example, when a compound of formula (I) or a form thereof incorporates a double bond or a fused ring, both cis and trans forms, as well as mixtures, are embraced within the scope of the present specification. Diastereomeric mixtures can be separated into their individual diastereomers based on their physical chemical differences by methods well known to those skilled in the art, such as, for example, by chromatography and / or fractional crystallization. Enantiomers can be separated by using chiral HPLC columns or other chromatographic methods known to those skilled in the art. Enantiomers can also be separated by converting the enantiomeric mixture into a diastereomeric mixture by reaction with a suitable optically active compound (e.g., a chiral auxiliary such as a chiral alcohol or Mosher's acid chloride), separating the diastereomers, and converting the individual diastereomers into the corresponding pure enantiomers (e.g., hydrolyzing). Some of the compounds of formula (I) may also be atropisomers (e.g., substituted biaryls) and are considered as part of the present specification.

[0090] All stereoisomers (e.g., geometric isomers, optical isomers, etc.) of the compounds (including salts, solvates, esters and prodrugs, and salts, solvates and esters of the prodrugs), such as those that may exist due to asymmetric carbons on the various substituents, are contemplated within the scope of this specification, including enantiomeric forms (which may also exist in the absence of asymmetric carbons), rotamer forms, atropisomers, and diastereomeric forms, as well as positional isomers (e.g., 4-pyridyl and 3-pyridyl, etc.). Individual stereoisomers of the compounds described herein may, for example, be substantially free of other isomers or may exist in racemic mixtures as described above.

[0107] The effective amount for a given subject can be determined by routine experimentation within the skill and judgment of the clinician or person skilled in the art, taking into account factors related to the subject.Dosage and administration can be adjusted to provide sufficient levels of active agent or to maintain the desired effect.Factors that can be taken into account include genetic screening, severity of disease state, status of disease progression, general health of the subject, ethnicity, age, weight, sex, diet, time and frequency of administration, drug combinations, reaction sensitivities, experience with other therapies, and tolerability / response to the therapy.

[0108] Doses administered to achieve effective target plasma concentrations may be administered orally once (once in an approximately 24 hour period; i.e., "qd"), twice (once in an approximately 12 hour period; i.e., "bid" or "q.12h"), three times (once in an approximately 8 hour period; i.e., "tid" or "q.8h"), or four times (once in an approximately 6 hour period; i.e., "qds", "qid" or "q.6h") daily.

[0109] In certain embodiments, the dose administered to achieve an effective target plasma concentration may also be administered in single, divided, or continuous doses for patients or subjects having a body weight ranging from about 40 to about 200 kg (the dose may be adjusted for patients or subjects above or below this range, particularly children under 40 kg). A typical adult subject is expected to have a median body weight in the range of about 70 kg. Long-acting pharmaceutical compositions may be administered every 2, 3, or 4 days, once per week, or once every two weeks, depending on the half-life and clearance rate of the particular formulation. The compounds and compositions described herein may be administered to a subject via any drug delivery route known in the art, non-limiting examples include oral, ocular, rectal, buccal, topical, nasal, sublingual, transdermal, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous (bolus and infusion), intracerebral, and pulmonary routes of administration.

[0110] In another embodiment, the administered dose may be adjusted based on the dosage forms described herein formulated to deliver about 0.02, 0.025, 0.03, 0.05, 0.06, 0.075, 0.08, 0.09, 0.10, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.50, 0.60, 0.75, 0.80, 0.90, 1.0, 1.10, 1.20, 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, 2.0, 3.0, 5.0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 400, 500, 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500, 3000 or 4000 mg / day. For any compound, the effective amount can be estimated initially in cell culture assays or in relevant animal models, such as mouse, guinea pig, chimpanzee, marmoset, or tamarin animal models. Relevant animal models can also be used to determine appropriate concentration ranges and routes of administration. Such information can then be used to determine useful doses and routes of administration in humans. Therapeutic efficacy and toxicity can be determined using standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or experimental animals, such as ED 50 (the dose therapeutically effective in 50% of the population) and LD 50 (the dose lethal to 50% of the population). The dose ratio between therapeutic and toxic effects is the therapeutic index, and the LD 50 / ED 50 In certain embodiments, the effective amount is such that a large therapeutic index is achieved. In further particular embodiments, the dosage is within the ED 50 The dosage may vary within this range depending on the dosage form used, sensitivity of the patient, and the route of administration.

[0111] Another aspect included within the scope of the present specification is the use of in vivo metabolic products of the compounds described herein. Such products may result, for example, from oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis, amidation, esterification, etc. of the administered compound, primarily resulting from enzymatic processes. Thus, the present specification includes the use of compounds produced by a process comprising contacting a compound described herein with mammalian tissue or a mammal for a period of time sufficient to produce a metabolic product thereof. Such products typically comprise a radiolabel of formula (I), e.g. 14 C or 3H) compounds, administering a detectable dose (e.g., greater than about 0.5 mg / kg) of the radiolabeled compound to a mammal, such as a rat, mouse, guinea pig, dog, monkey, or human, allowing sufficient time for metabolism to occur (typically about 30 seconds to about 30 hours), and identifying the metabolic conversion products from urine, bile, blood, or other biological samples. The conversion products are "radiolabeled" by being isotopically enriched and therefore easily isolated (some are isolated by the use of antibodies capable of binding to epitopes remaining in the metabolite). The structures of the metabolites are determined in a conventional manner, for example, by MS or NMR analysis. In general, the analysis of the metabolites can be performed in the same manner as conventional drug metabolism studies well known to those skilled in the art. The conversion products are useful in diagnostic assays for therapeutic dosing of the compounds described herein, even if they do not possess biological activity of their own unless otherwise found in vivo.

[0114] Example 1 RT-qPCR assay to quantify MAPT 3R mRNA in cells Test compounds were serially diluted 3.16-fold in 100% DMSO to generate 7-point concentration curves. Aliquots of 0.5 μL of diluted compounds were transferred to a 96-well flat-bottom plate by a liquid handler. Aliquots of 0.5 μL of DMSO were also transferred to separate wells to serve as controls. Duplicate samples were prepared for each compound concentration and DMSO control. Cells were thawed and incubated in cell culture medium (DMEM, 10% FBS, and 1% antibiotic cocktail) for 72 hours. Cells were trypsinized, counted, and resuspended in cell culture medium to a concentration of 200,000 cells / mL. 100 μL aliquots of cell suspension were plated into compound-containing 96-well microtiter plates at 20,000 cells per well and incubated in a cell culture incubator (37° C., 5% CO2, 100% relative humidity). After 24 hours, the medium was aspirated from the cells and 20 μL of RCL2 lysis buffer (10 mM Tris-HCL pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 0.33% IGEPAL® CA-630) was added to each well and incubated at room temperature for 1 minute. Chilled nuclease-free water (140 μL per well) was added and the plate was immediately transferred to ice. After 1 minute on ice, the plate was frozen at -80°C overnight.
