[0001] FIELD OF THEINVENTION The present invention relates to a compound of formula (I): [ka] [In the formula, R 1a , R 1b , R 2a , R 2b , Z, R 3 ~R 5 , A, p, U, V, W and L have the meanings given in the claims and the specification. The present invention relates to ring-fused 2-amino-3-cyanothiophenes and derivatives of the formula: [Background technology]
[0002] 2. Background of the Invention Ras family proteins, including KRAS (V-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog), NRAS (neuroblastoma RAS viral oncogene homolog), and HRAS (Harvey murine sarcoma viral oncogene) and any of their mutants, are small GTPases that exist in cells in either GTP-bound or GDP-bound states (McCormick et al., J. Mol. Med. (Berl)., 2016, 94(3):253-8; Nimnual et al., Sci. STKE., 2002, 2002(145):pe36). Ras family proteins have weak intrinsic GTPase activity and slow nucleotide exchange rates (Hunter et al., Mol. Cancer Res., 2015, 13(9):1325-35). Binding of GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs), such as NF1, increases the GTPase activity of Ras family proteins. Binding of guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs), such as SOS1 (Son of Sevenless 1), promotes the release of GDP from Ras family proteins, allowing GTP binding (Chardin et al., Science, 1993, 260(5112):1338-43). When in the GTP-bound state, Ras family proteins are active and engage effector proteins, including C-RAF and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), to promote the RAF / mitogen or extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MEK / ERK) pathway, the PI3K / AKT / mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, and the RalGDS (Ral guanine nucleotide dissociation stimulator) pathway (McCormick et al., J. Mol. Med. (Berl)., 2016, 94(3):253-8; Rodriguez-Viciana et al., Cancer Cell. 2005, 7(3):205-6).These pathways affect diverse cellular processes such as proliferation, survival, metabolism, motility, angiogenesis, immunity and growth (Young et al., Adv. Cancer Res., 2009, 102:1-17; Rodriguez-Viciana et al., Cancer Cell. 2005, 7(3):205-6).
[0003] Cancer-associated mutations in Ras family proteins suppress their intrinsic and GAP-induced GTPase activity, leading to an increase in the population of GTP-bound / active mutant Ras family proteins (McCormick et al., Expert Opin. Ther. Targets., 2015, 19(4):451-4; Hunter et al., Mol. Cancer Res., 2015, 13(9):1325-35). This, in turn, leads to sustained activation of effector pathways downstream of mutant Ras family proteins (e.g., RAF / MEK / ERK, PI3K / AKT / mTOR, RalGDS pathways). KRAS mutations (e.g., amino acids G12, G13, Q61, A146) are found in a wide variety of human cancers, including lung, colon, and pancreatic cancers (Cox et al., Nat. Rev. Drug Discov., 2014, 13(11):828-51). Mutations in HRAS (e.g., amino acids G12, G13, Q61) and NRAS (e.g., amino acids G12, G13, Q61, A146) are also found in a wide variety of human cancer types, but usually at a lower frequency than KRAS mutations (Cox et al., Nat. Rev. Drug Discov., 2014, 13(11):828-51). Additionally, alterations (e.g., mutations, overexpression, gene amplification) in Ras family proteins / Ras genes have been described as a resistance mechanism to cancer therapeutics such as the EGFR antibodies cetuximab and panitumumab (Leto et al., J. Mol. Med. (Berl). 2014 Jul;92(7):709-22) and the EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor osimertinib / AZD9291 (Ortiz-Cuaran et al., Clin. Cancer Res., 2016, 22(19):4837-47; Eberlein et al., Cancer Res., 2015, 7 5(12):2489-500).
[0004] Glycine to cysteine mutations at residue 12 of Ras family proteins (G12C mutations, e.g., KRAS G12C, NRAS G12C, and HRAS G12C) arise from a GC to TA transversion at codon 12 and are common mutations in RAS genes, accounting for 14% of all KRAS mutations, 2% of all NRAS mutations, and 2% of all HRAS mutations across cancer types. G12C mutations are particularly enriched in KRAS mutant non-small cell lung cancers, which harbor this mutation in about half of their cancers, which is associated with DNA adducts produced by cigarette smoke. G12C mutations are not exclusively associated with lung cancer but are also found in other RAS mutant cancer types, including, for example, 3-5% of all KRAS mutant colorectal cancers. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0005] Thus, there is a need for new inhibitors of G12C mutant Ras family proteins that have the required pharmacological properties suitable for clinical use. [Means for solving the problem]
[0006] Surprisingly, it has been found that the compounds described herein have antitumor activity and are useful in controlling uncontrolled cell proliferation resulting from malignant diseases. This antitumor activity is believed to result from the inhibition of G12C mutant Ras family proteins, particularly KRAS G12C, which are important mediators of proliferation and survival in certain tumor cells. Furthermore, the compounds of the present invention are believed to interact with and then covalently bind to G12C mutant Ras family proteins, particularly KRAS G12C, via an electrophilic moiety (e.g., Michael acceptor) present in the compound of formula (I) (as confirmed by crystallography of KRAS G12C). By covalently binding to G12C mutant Ras family proteins, particularly KRAS G12C, which most likely occurs at position 12 of the Ras family protein, the compounds impair or substantially eliminate the ability of G12C Ras family proteins to reach their active, pro-pro-proliferative / pro-survival conformation.
[0007] Such covalent binders to mutant Ras family proteins, e.g., KRAS G12C, NRAS G12C, and HRAS G12C, are expected to inhibit downstream cell signaling of the Ras family proteins (e.g., ERK phosphorylation). In cancer cells that are dependent on mutant Ras family proteins (e.g., KRAS mutant cancer cell lines), such binders / inhibitors are expected to exert anti-cancer effects (e.g., inhibition of proliferation, survival, metastasis, etc.).
[0008] Indeed, the binding of the compounds of formula (I) according to the present invention results in selective and highly potent anti-proliferative cellular effects in G12C mutant KRAS cell lines and a large selectivity window compared to KRAS wild-type cells. This superior potency can lead to lower systemic exposure required for full efficacy in humans, and therefore better tolerability. The compounds show strong biomarker modulation, e.g., pERK, in G12C mutant KRAS cell lines. Selected compounds show good selectivity against other human targets, e.g., kinases, when tested in selectivity panels. Last but not least, the series of compounds disclosed herein show good permeability, excellent solubility, and have fine-tuned PK properties. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0093] However, the dosage may sometimes need to deviate from the specified amount depending on the body weight, age, route of administration, severity of the disease, individual response to the drug, the nature of its formulation and the time or interval at which the drug is administered (continuous or intermittent treatment with one or several doses per day). Thus, in some cases, it may be sufficient to use a dosage lower than the minimum dose given above, while in other cases, the upper limit may have to be exceeded. When administering larger amounts, it may be advisable to divide these into several smaller doses per day.
[0094] Therefore, in a further aspect, the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one (preferably one) compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof and one or more pharma- ceutically acceptable excipients.
[0095] The compounds of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) or pharma- ceutically acceptable salts thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds and salts, may also be co-administered, i.e., used in combination with other pharmacologically active substances, such as other anti-neoplastic compounds (e.g. chemotherapy) (see further below under Combination treatments).
[0096] The elements of such combinations can be administered (subordinately or independently) in a manner that is conventional to those of skill in the art and that is used in monotherapy, for example, by oral, enteral, parenteral (e.g., intramuscular, intraperitoneal, intravenous, transdermal or subcutaneous injection, or implant), nasal, vaginal, rectal or topical routes of administration, and can be formulated, either alone or together, in suitable dosage unit formulations containing conventional non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable excipients appropriate for each route of administration.
[0097] The combination may be administered in a single or divided daily dose that is therapeutically effective. The active components of the combination may be administered in such doses that are therapeutically effective in monotherapy, or in such doses that are less than the doses used in monotherapy but which, in combination, result in the desired (combined) therapeutically effective amount.
[0098] However, when the combination of two or more active substances or ingredients produces a synergistic effect, it is also possible to reduce the amount of one, more or all of the substances or ingredients administered while still achieving the desired therapeutic effect. This can be useful, for example, to avoid, limit or reduce any undesirable side effects associated with the use of one or more of the substances or ingredients when used in their usual amounts, while still ensuring the desired pharmacological or therapeutic effect.
[0099] Therefore, in a further aspect, the present invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof and one or more (preferably, one or two, most preferably one) other pharmacologically active substances.

[0117] Another embodiment is based on identifying a relationship between the G12C mutation status of a patient and its potential sensitivity to treatment with a compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If). A RAS G12C inhibitor, such as a compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If), can then be advantageously used to treat patients with KRAS G12C, HRAS G12C or NRAS G12C mutations that may be resistant to other therapies. This therefore provides opportunities, methods and tools for selecting patients, particularly cancer patients, for treatment with a compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If). The selection is based on whether the tumor cells being treated have a wild type KRAS, HRAS or NRAS gene or a G12C mutant KRAS, HRAS or NRAS gene. The status of the G12C KRAS, HRAS or NRAS gene can therefore be used as a biomarker to indicate that selecting treatment with a compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) may be advantageous.
[0118] According to one embodiment, there is provided a method for selecting a patient for treatment with a compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If), comprising: Preparing a tumor cell-containing sample from a patient; determining whether the RAS gene in a sample containing the patient's tumor cells encodes a wild-type (glycine at position 12) KRAS, HRAS or NRAS protein or a mutant (cysteine at position 12) KRAS, HRAS or NRAS protein; and and based thereon, selecting patients for treatment with a compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If). A method is provided that includes:
[0119] The method may or may not include the step of isolating the actual patient sample.
[0120] In one aspect, if the tumor cell DNA has a G12C mutant KRAS gene, the patient is selected for treatment with a compound represented by Formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If).
[0121] In another embodiment, if the tumor cell DNA has a G12C mutant HRAS gene, the patient is selected for treatment with a compound of Formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If).
[0122] In another embodiment, if the tumor cell DNA has a G12C mutant NRAS gene, the patient is selected for treatment with a compound represented by Formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If).
[0123] According to another aspect, there is provided a compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof for use in treating a cancer having tumor cells harboring a G12C mutant RAS gene.
[0124] According to another aspect, there is provided a compound of Formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof for use in treating a cancer having tumor cells harboring a G12C mutant KRAS gene.
[0125] According to another aspect, there is provided a compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof for use in treating a cancer having tumor cells harboring a G12C mutant HRAS gene.

[0127] According to another aspect, there is provided a method of treating a cancer having tumor cells carrying a G12C mutant RAS gene, comprising administering to a human an effective amount of a compound represented by Formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof.
[0128] According to another aspect, there is provided a method of treating a cancer having tumor cells harboring a G12C mutant KRAS, HRAS or NRAS gene, comprising administering an effective amount of a compound represented by Formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof.
[0129] Determining whether a tumor or cancer contains a G12C KRAS, HRAS or NRAS mutation can be performed by evaluating the nucleotide sequence encoding the KRAS, HRAS or NRAS protein, by evaluating the amino acid sequence of the KRAS, HRAS or NRAS protein, or by evaluating the characteristics of a putative KRAS, HRAS or NRAS mutant protein. The sequence of wild-type human KRAS, HRAS or NRAS is known in the art. Methods for detecting mutations in KRAS, HRAS or NRAS nucleotide sequences are known to those skilled in the art. These methods include, but are not limited to, polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay, polymerase chain reaction-single-strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) assay, real-time PCR assay, PCR sequencing, mutant allele-specific PCR amplification (MASA) assay, direct sequencing, primer extension reaction, electrophoresis, oligonucleotide ligation assay, hybridization assay, TaqMan assay, SNP genotyping assay, high resolution melting assay, and microarray analysis. In some embodiments, samples are evaluated for G12C KRAS, HRAS or NRAS mutations by real-time PCR. In real-time PCR, a fluorescent probe specific for KRAS, HRAS or NRAS G12C mutations is used. If a mutation is present, the probe binds and fluorescence is detected. In some embodiments, KRAS, HRAS or NRAS G12C mutations are identified using direct sequencing of specific regions (e.g., exon 2 and / or exon 3) in the KRAS, HRAS or NRAS gene. This technique identifies all possible mutations in the sequenced region. Methods for detecting mutations in KRAS, HRAS or NRAS proteins are known to those skilled in the art. These methods include, but are not limited to, detection of KRAS, HRAS or NRAS mutants using binding substances (e.g., antibodies) specific for mutant proteins, protein electrophoresis, Western blotting and direct peptide sequencing.
[0130] The method for determining whether a tumor or cancer contains a G12C KRAS, HRAS or NRAS mutation can use a wide variety of samples. In some embodiments, the sample is taken from a subject with a tumor or cancer. In some embodiments, the sample is a fresh tumor / cancer sample. In some embodiments, the sample is a frozen tumor / cancer sample. In some embodiments, the sample is a formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sample. In some embodiments, the sample is processed into a cell lysate. In some embodiments, the sample is processed into DNA or RNA. In some embodiments, the sample is a liquid biopsy and tests are performed on a blood sample to look for cancer cells from the tumor circulating in the blood or fragments of DNA from tumor cells in the blood.
[0131] Similarly, it can be determined whether the tumor or cancer contains KRAS G12D, KRAS G12V, KRAS G12A, KRAS G13D and KRAS G12R mutations, or is KRAS wild type, preferably amplified.

[0191] It should be understood that the combinations, compositions, kits, methods, uses, pharmaceutical compositions or compounds for use according to the present invention may envisage simultaneous, concurrent, sequential, consecutive, alternating or separate administration of the active ingredients or components. It will be appreciated that the compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and one or more other pharmacologically active substances may be formulated and administered dependently or independently, e.g., the compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and one or more other pharmacologically active substances may be administered as part of the same pharmaceutical composition / dosage form or, preferably, in separate pharmaceutical compositions / dosage forms.
[0192] In this context, "combination" or "combined" includes, but is not limited to, within the meaning of the present invention, products resulting from mixing or combining two or more active ingredients, including both fixed and non-fixed (e.g., free) combinations (including kits) and uses, such as simultaneous, parallel, sequential, consecutive, alternating or separate use of components or ingredients. The term "fixed combination" means that the active ingredients are administered to a patient simultaneously in the form of a single entity or dosage. The term "non-fixed combination" means that the active ingredients are administered to a patient as separate entities simultaneously, in parallel or sequentially without specific time limitations, such administration providing a therapeutically effective level of the compound in the patient's body.
[0193] The administration of a compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof and one or more other pharmacologically active substances may be carried out by co-administration of the active components or ingredients, such as by administering them simultaneously or in parallel in one single or two or more separate formulations or dosage forms. Alternatively, the administration of a compound of formula (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) or (If) or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof and one or more other pharmacologically active substances may be carried out by administering the active components or ingredients sequentially or alternatingly, such as by administering them in two or more separate formulations or dosage forms.
[0194] For example, simultaneous administration includes administration at substantially the same time. This form of administration may also be referred to as "conjugated" administration. Concurrent administration includes administration of the active agents within the same general time period, e.g., on the same day, but not necessarily at the same time. Alternating administration includes administration of one agent during one period, e.g., over several days or a week, followed by administration of the other agent during a subsequent period, e.g., over several days or a week, and then repeating this pattern for one or more cycles. Sequential or consecutive administration includes administration of one agent with one or more doses during a first period (e.g., over several days or a week), followed by administration of the other agent with one or more doses during a second and / or further period (e.g., over several days or a week). Overlapping schedules may also be used, including administration of the active agents on different days over the treatment period, but not necessarily following a regular order. Variations of these general guidelines may also be used, for example, depending on the agents used and the condition of the subject.
[0195] definition Terms not specifically defined herein should be given the meaning that would be given to them by one of ordinary skill in the art in light of this disclosure and context. However, as used herein, unless expressly stated to the contrary, the following terms have the meanings indicated and the following conventions are observed:
[0196] Prefix C x-y [wherein, x and y each represent a positive integer (x < y)] is used to indicate that the entire chain or ring structure or combination of chain and ring structures directly associated and specified can consist of carbon atoms with a maximum value of y and a minimum value of x.
[0197] The indication of the number of members in a group containing one or more heteroatoms (e.g., heteroaryl, heteroarylalkyl, heterocyclyl, heterocyclylalkyl) relates to the total number of atoms of all ring members or the total number of all ring members and the carbon chain portion.
[0198] The indication of the number of carbon atoms in a group consisting of a combination of a carbon chain and a carbon ring structure (e.g., cycloalkylalkyl, arylalkyl) relates to the total number of carbon atoms of all carbon ring members and the carbon chain portion. Of course, the ring structure has at least 3 members.
[0199] Generally, for a group containing two or more partial groups (e.g., heteroarylalkyl, heterocyclylalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, arylalkyl), the last named partial group is the point of attachment of the group. For example, the substituent aryl-C 1-6 Alkyl is C 1-6 means an aryl group bonded to an alkyl group, C 1-6 The alkyl group is bonded to a group to which a nucleus or a substituent is bonded.
[0200] For groups such as HO, H2N, (O)S, (O)2S, NC (cyano), HOOC, F3C, etc., those skilled in the art can understand the point of attachment of the group to the molecule from the free valence of the group itself.
[0201] The expression "compounds of the invention" and grammatical variations thereof include compounds of formulae (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) and (If), including all salts, aspects and preferred embodiments thereof as defined herein. Any reference to a compound of the invention or to a compound of formulae (I), (Ia), (Ib), (Ic), (Id), (Ie) and (If) is intended to include a reference to each (part) aspect and embodiment.
[0202] Alkyl denotes a monovalent saturated hydrocarbon chain which may exist both in linear (unbranched) and branched form. If an alkyl is substituted, the substitutions may take place independently of one another, by mono- or polysubstitutions in each case, on all the hydrogen-carrying carbon atoms.

[0225] If the hydrocarbon chain also carries at least one double bond and at least one triple bond, then by definition this hydrocarbon chain belongs to an alkynyl moiety.
[0226] The above definition of alkynyl also means that alkynyl is, for example, C x-y Alkynylamino or C x-y This also applies when it is part of another (combined) group, such as alkynyloxy.
[0227] Unlike alkylene, Alkynylene consists of at least two carbon atoms, where at least two adjacent carbon atoms are connected together by a C-C triple bond.

[0232] Haloalkyl (haloalkenyl, haloalkynyl) is derived from the alkyl (alkenyl, alkynyl) as defined above by the replacement of one or more hydrogen atoms of the hydrocarbon chain, independently of one another, by halogen atoms which may be identical or different. If a haloalkyl (alkenyl, haloalkynyl) is further substituted, the substitutions may take place independently of one another, in the form of mono- or polysubstitutions in each case, on all hydrogen-carrying carbon atoms.

[0234] From the haloalkyl (haloalkenyl, haloalkynyl) defined above: Haloalkylene (haloalkenylene, haloalkynylene)The term haloalkylene (haloalkenylene, haloalkynylene) is also derived. Haloalkyl (haloalkenyl, haloalkynyl) is different from haloalkyl (haloalkenyl, haloalkynyl) in that it is divalent and requires two binding partners. Formally, the second valency is formed by removing a hydrogen atom from the haloalkyl (haloalkenyl, haloalkynyl).
[0235] Corresponding groups are, for example, -CH2F and -CHF-, -CHFCH2F and -CHFCHF- or >CFCH2F.
[0236] The above definitions also apply if the corresponding halogen-containing groups are part of another (combined) group.
[0237] halogen relates to a fluorine, chlorine, bromine and / or iodine atom.
[0238] Cycloalkyl is composed of the subgroups monocyclic cycloalkyl, bicyclic cycloalkyl and spiro-cycloalkyl. The ring systems are saturated and are formed by linked carbon atoms. In bicyclic cycloalkyl, two rings are connected together in such a way that they share at least two carbon atoms. In spiro-cycloalkyl, one carbon atom (spiro atom) belongs to both rings together.
[0239] If a cycloalkyl is substituted, the substitutions may take place independently of one another, in the form of mono- or polysubstitutions in each case, on all hydrogen-carrying carbon atoms. Cycloalkyl itself, as a substituent, may be linked to the molecule via any suitable position of the ring system.
[0240] Examples of cycloalkyl are cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cycloheptyl, bicyclo[2.2.0]hexyl, bicyclo[3.2.0]heptyl, bicyclo[3.2.1]octyl, bicyclo[2.2.2]octyl, bicyclo[4.3.0]nonyl (octahydroindenyl), bicyclo[4.4.0]decyl (decahydronaphthyl), bicyclo[2.2.1]heptyl (norbornyl), bicyclo[4.1.0]heptyl (norcaranyl), bicyclo[3.1.1]heptyl (pinanyl), spiro[2.5]octyl, spiro[3.3]heptyl, and the like.

If the free valence of the cycloalkyl is saturated, alicyclic ring is obtained.
[0242] Cycloalkylene The term can therefore be derived from cycloalkyl as defined above. Cycloalkylene, unlike cycloalkyl, is bivalent and requires two binding partners. Formally, the second valency is obtained by removing a hydrogen atom from a cycloalkyl. Corresponding groups are, for example: Cyclohexyl and [ka]
[0243] The above definition of cycloalkylene also applies when cycloalkylene is, for example, HO-C x-y Cycloalkyleneamino or H2N-C x-y This also applies when it is part of another (combined) group, such as cycloalkyleneoxy.
[0244] Cycloalkenylis composed of the subgroups monocyclic cycloalkenyl, bicyclic cycloalkenyl and spiro-cycloalkenyl. However, this system is unsaturated, i.e., there is at least one C-C double bond, but no aromatic system. In a cycloalkyl as defined hereinbefore, two hydrogen atoms of adjacent cyclic carbon atoms are formally removed and the free valences are saturated to form a second bond, resulting in the corresponding cycloalkenyl.
[0245] If a cycloalkenyl is substituted, the substitutions may take place independently of one another, in the form of mono- or polysubstitutions in each case, on all hydrogen-carrying carbon atoms. The cycloalkenyl itself, as a substituent, may be linked to the molecule via any suitable position of the ring system.
[0246] Examples of cycloalkenyl are cycloprop-1-enyl, cycloprop-2-enyl, cyclobut-1-enyl, cyclobut-2-enyl, cyclopent-1-enyl, cyclopent-2-enyl, cyclopent-3-enyl, cyclohex-1-enyl, cyclohex-2-enyl, cyclohex-3-enyl, cyclohept-1-enyl, cyclohept-2-enyl, cyclohept-3-enyl, cyclohept-4-enyl, cyclobuta-1,3-dienyl, cyclopenta -1,4-dienyl, cyclopenta-1,3-dienyl, cyclopenta-2,4-dienyl, cyclohexa-1,3-dienyl, cyclohexa-1,5-dienyl, cyclohexa-2,4-dienyl, cyclohexa-1,4-dienyl, cyclohexa-2,5-dienyl, bicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-dienyl (norborna-2,5-dienyl), bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-enyl (norbornenyl), spiro[4,5]dec-2-enyl, and the like.
[0247] The above definition of cycloalkenyl also applies when cycloalkenyl is, for example, C x-y Cycloalkenylamino, C x-y Cycloalkenyloxy or C x-yThis also applies when they are part of another (combined) group, such as cycloalkenylalkyl.
[0248] When the free valence of the cycloalkenyl is saturated, unsaturated alicyclic ring is obtained.
[0249] Cycloalkenylene The term can therefore be derived from cycloalkenyl as defined above. Cycloalkenylene, unlike cycloalkenyl, is bivalent and requires two binding partners. Formally, the second valency is obtained by removing a hydrogen atom from cycloalkenyl. Corresponding groups are, for example: Cyclopentenyl and [ka]
[0250] The above definition of cycloalkenylene also applies when cycloalkenylene is, for example, HO-C x-y Cycloalkenyleneamino or H2N-C x-y This also applies when they are part of another (combined) group, such as cycloalkenyleneoxy.
[0251] Aryl represents a monocyclic, bicyclic or tricyclic carbocycle having at least one aromatic carbocycle. Preferably, aryl represents a monocyclic group having 6 carbon atoms (phenyl) or a bicyclic group having 9 or 10 carbon atoms (two 6-membered rings or one 6-membered and one 5-membered ring), where the second ring may be aromatic but may also be partially saturated.
[0252] If an aryl is substituted, the substitutions may take place independently of one another, in the form of mono- or polysubstitutions in each case, on all hydrogen-carrying carbon atoms. The aryl itself, as a substituent, may be linked to the molecule via any suitable position of the ring system.
[0253] Examples of aryl are phenyl, naphthyl, indanyl (2,3-dihydroindenyl), indenyl, anthracenyl, phenanthrenyl, tetrahydronaphthyl (1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthyl, tetralinyl), dihydronaphthyl (1,2-dihydronaphthyl), fluorenyl, etc. Most preferred is phenyl.
[0254] The above definition of aryl also applies if aryl is part of another (combined) group, such as, for example, arylamino, aryloxy or arylalkyl.
[0255] If the free valence of the aryl is saturated, aromatic group is obtained.
[0256] Arylene The term may also be derived from aryl as defined above. Arylene, unlike aryl, is bivalent and requires two binding partners. Formally, the second valency is formed by removing a hydrogen atom from an aryl. Corresponding groups are, for example: Phenyl and [ka] Naphthyl and [ka]
[0257] The above definition for arylene also applies if arylene is part of another (combined) group, such as, for example, HO-aryleneamino or H2N-aryleneoxy.
[0258] Heterocyclylrepresents a ring system derived from the above-defined cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl and aryl by replacing one or more of the -CH2- groups, independently of one another, in the hydrocarbon ring by the group -O-, -S- or -NH-, or by replacing one or more of the =CH- groups by the group =N-, where up to 5 heteroatoms may be present in total, at least one carbon atom must be present between two oxygen atoms and two sulfur atoms or between an oxygen atom and a sulfur atom, and the ring as a whole must have chemical stability. The heteroatoms may optionally be present in all possible oxidation stages (sulfur → sulfoxide-SO-, sulfone-SO2-; nitrogen → N-oxide). In heterocyclyl, there is no heteroaromatic ring, i.e. the heteroatoms are not part of the aromatic system.
[0259] A direct consequence of the derivation from cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, and aryl is that heterocyclyl is comprised of the subgroups monocyclic heterocyclyl, bicyclic heterocyclyl, tricyclic heterocyclyl, and spiro-heterocyclyl, which may exist in saturated or unsaturated form.
[0260] Unsaturated means that there is at least one double bond in the ring system, but no heteroaromatic system is formed. In a bicyclic heterocyclyl, two rings are linked together to share at least two (hetero)atoms. In a spiro-heterocyclyl, one carbon atom (spiro atom) belongs to both rings together.
[0261] When a heterocyclyl is substituted, the substitutions may take place independently of one another, in the form of mono- or polysubstitutions in each case, on all hydrogen-carrying carbon and / or nitrogen atoms. The heterocyclyl itself may be linked to the molecule as a substituent via any suitable position of the ring system. For the substituents on the heterocyclyl, the number of members of the heterocyclyl is not critical.
[0262] Examples of heterocyclyls are tetrahydrofuryl, pyrrolidinyl, pyrrolinyl, imidazolidinyl, thiazolidinyl, imidazolinyl, pyrazolidinyl, pyrazolinyl, piperidinyl, piperazinyl, oxiranyl, aziridinyl, azetidinyl, 1,4-dioxanyl, azepanyl, diazepanyl, morpholinyl, thiomorpholinyl, homomorpholinyl, homopiperidinyl, homopiperazinyl, homothiomorpholinyl, thiomorpholinyl-S-oxide, thiomorpholinyl-S,S-di.

[0263] Further examples are the structures illustrated below, which may be bonded (exchanged with hydrogen) through their respective hydrogen-carrying atoms: [ka] TIFF2024543983000065.tif222161 TIFF2024543983000066.tif226161 TIFF2024543983000067.tif221161
[0264] Preferred monocyclic heterocyclyls are 4-7 membered and have 1 or 2 heteroatoms independently selected from oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur.
[0265] Preferred monocyclic heterocyclyls are piperazinyl, piperidinyl, morpholinyl, pyrrolidinyl, and azetidinyl.
[0266] Preferred bicyclic heterocyclyls are 6-10 membered and have 1 or 2 heteroatoms independently selected from oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur.
[0267] Preferred tricyclic heterocyclyls are 9-membered and have 1 or 2 heteroatoms independently selected from oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur.
[0268] Preferred spiro-heterocyclyls are 7-11 membered and have 1 or 2 heteroatoms independently selected from oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur.
[0269] The above definition of heterocyclyl also applies if heterocyclyl is part of another (combined) group, such as, for example, heterocyclylamino, heterocyclyloxy or heterocyclylalkyl.
[0270] If the free valence of the heterocyclyl is saturated, Heterocycle is obtained.
[0271] HeterocyclyleneThe term is also derived from heterocyclyl as defined above. Heterocyclylene, unlike heterocyclyl, is bivalent and requires two binding partners. Formally, the second valency is obtained by removing a hydrogen atom from a heterocyclyl. Corresponding groups are, for example: Piperidinyl and [ka] 2,3-Dihydro-1H-pyrrolyl and [ka]
[0272] The above definition of heterocyclylene also applies if heterocyclylene is part of another (combined) group, such as, for example, HO-heterocyclyleneamino or H2N-heterocyclyleneoxy.
[0273] Heteroaryl represents a monocyclic heteroaromatic ring or a polycyclic ring having at least one heteroaromatic ring, which contains, in place of one or more carbon atoms, one or more identical or different heteroatoms selected from among nitrogen, sulfur and oxygen, in comparison with the corresponding aryl or cycloalkyl(alkenyl), where the resulting group must be chemically stable. The prerequisite for the presence of heteroaryl is the heteroatom and the heteroaromatic system.
[0274] When heteroaryl is substituted, the substitutions can be carried out independently of one another, in the form of monosubstitution or polysubstitution in each case, on all hydrogen-carrying carbon and / or nitrogen atoms.Heteroaryl itself can be linked to the molecule as a substituent at any suitable position of the ring system, i.e., via both carbon and nitrogen.For the substituent on heteroaryl, the number of members of heteroaryl is not important.
[0275] Examples of heteroaryl are furyl, thienyl, pyrrolyl, oxazolyl, thiazolyl, isoxazolyl, isothiazolyl, pyrazolyl, imidazolyl, triazolyl, tetrazolyl, oxadiazolyl, thiadiazolyl, pyridyl, pyrimidyl, pyridazinyl, pyrazinyl, triazinyl, pyridyl-N-oxide, pyrrolyl-N-oxide, pyrimidinyl-N-oxide, pyridazinyl-N-oxide, pyrazinyl-N-oxide, imidazolyl-N-oxide, isoxazolyl-N-oxide, oxazolyl-N-oxide, thiazolyl-N-oxide, oxadiazolyl-N-oxide, thiadiazolyl-N-oxide, triazolyl-N-oxide, tetrazolyl-N-oxide, indolyl, isoindolyl, benzofuryl, benzothienyl, benzoxazolyl, benzo zothiazolyl, benzisoxazolyl, benzisothiazolyl, benzimidazolyl, indazolyl, isoquinolinyl, quinolinyl, quinoxalinyl, cinnolinyl, phthalazinyl, quinazolinyl, benzotriazinyl, indolizinyl, oxazolopyridyl, imidazopyridyl, naphthyridinyl, benzoxazolyl, pyridopyridyl, pyrimidopyridyl, purinyl, pteridinyl, ben These include zothiazolyl, imidazopyridyl, imidazothiazolyl, quinolinyl-N-oxide, indolyl-N-oxide, isoquinolyl-N-oxide, quinazolinyl-N-oxide, quinoxalinyl-N-oxide, phthalazinyl-N-oxide, indolizinyl-N-oxide, indazolyl-N-oxide, benzothiazolyl-N-oxide, and benzimidazolyl-N-oxide.
[0276] Further examples are the structures illustrated below, which may be bonded (exchanged with hydrogen) through their respective hydrogen-carrying atoms: [ka] TIFF2024543983000071.tif188161
[0277] Preferably, the heteroaryl is a 5- to 6-membered monocyclic or 9- to 10-membered bicyclic ring, each having 1 to 4 heteroatoms independently selected from oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur.
[0278] The above definition of heteroaryl also applies if heteroaryl is part of another (combined) group, such as, for example, heteroarylamino, heteroaryloxy or heteroarylalkyl.
[0279] If the free valence of the heteroaryl is saturated, Heteroaromatic groups is obtained.
[0280] Heteroarylene The term is also derived from heteroaryl as defined above. Heteroarylene, unlike heteroaryl, is bivalent and requires two binding partners. Formally, the second valency is obtained by removing a hydrogen atom from a heteroaryl. Corresponding groups are, for example: Pyrrolyl and [ka]
[0281] The above definition of heteroarylene also applies if heteroarylene is part of another (combined) group, such as, for example, HO-heteroaryleneamino or H2N-heteroaryleneoxy.
[0282] Has been replaced means that a hydrogen atom directly bonded to the atom under consideration is replaced by another atom or a group of another atom (substituent). Depending on the starting conditions (number of hydrogen atoms), mono- or polysubstitutions can be made on an atom. Substitution with a specific substituent is only possible if the allowed valences of the substituent and the allowed valences of the atom to be replaced correspond to each other and the substitution leads to a stable compound (i.e., a compound that is not spontaneously transformed, for example, by rearrangement, cyclization or elimination).
[0283] Divalent substituents such as =S, =NR, =NOR, =NNRR, =NN(R)C(O)NRR, =N2, etc. are only possible as substituents on carbon atoms, but the divalent substituents =O and =NR can also be substituents on sulfur. In general, substitutions can only be made on ring systems by divalent substituents and require the replacement of two geminal hydrogen atoms, i.e. hydrogen atoms attached to the same carbon atom that is saturated before the substitution. Thus, substitutions by divalent substituents are only possible on the group -CH2- or sulfur atoms of the ring system (only =O or =NR groups, one or two =O groups are possible, or, for example, one =O and one =NR group, each group replacing a free electron pair).

[0287] Enantiomerically pure compounds or intermediates of the present invention may be prepared via asymmetric synthesis, for example by the preparation and subsequent separation of suitable diastereomeric compounds or intermediates which can be separated by known methods (e.g. chromatographic separation or crystallization), and / or by the use of chiral reagents, such as chiral starting materials, chiral catalysts or chiral auxiliaries.
[0288] Furthermore, methods for preparing enantiomerically pure compounds from the corresponding racemic mixtures are also known to the skilled artisan, for example by chromatographic separation of the corresponding racemic mixtures on chiral stationary phases, or by resolution of the racemic mixtures using suitable resolving agents, for example by formation of diastereomeric salts of the racemates with optically active acids or bases followed by resolution of the salts and liberation of the desired compound from the salts, or by derivatization of the corresponding racemates with optically active chiral auxiliary reagents followed by diastereomeric separation and removal of the chiral auxiliary, or by kinetic resolution of the racemates (for example enzymatic resolution); by enantioselective crystallization from a consortium of enantiomeric crystals under suitable conditions, or by (fractional) crystallization from a suitable solvent in the presence of an optically active chiral auxiliary.
[0289] salt: The phrase "pharmacologically acceptable" is used herein to refer to compounds, materials, compositions, and / or dosage forms that are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human beings and animals without undue toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problem or complication, and are commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio.
[0290] As used herein, "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" refers to derivatives of the disclosed compounds in which the parent compound is modified by making acid or base salts thereof. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, inorganic or organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines; alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids; and the like.
[0291] For example, such salts include salts from benzenesulfonic acid, benzoic acid, citric acid, ethanesulfonic acid, fumaric acid, gentisic acid, hydrobromic acid, hydrochloric acid, maleic acid, malic acid, malonic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, 4-methyl-benzenesulfonic acid, phosphoric acid, salicylic acid, succinic acid, sulfuric acid, and tartaric acid.
[0292] Further pharma- ceutically acceptable salts can be formed with cations from ammonia, L-arginine, calcium, 2,2'-iminobisethanol, L-lysine, magnesium, N-methyl-D-glucamine, potassium, sodium and tris(hydroxymethyl)-aminomethane.
[0293] The pharma- ceutically acceptable salts of the present invention can be synthesized from a parent compound that contains a basic or acidic moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acid or free base form of these compounds with a sufficient amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or an organic diluent such as ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile, or a mixture thereof.
[0294] For example, salts of acids other than those mentioned above that are useful in the purification or isolation of the compounds of this invention (eg, trifluoroacetates) also form part of this invention.
[0295] for example, [ka] In depictions such as these, the letter A serves the function of designating a ring for easier reference, for example to indicate the attachment of that ring to another ring.
[0296] For divalent groups, it is very important to determine which adjacent group it is bonded to and with what valency, and the corresponding bond partner is shown in parentheses for clarity, where necessary, as in the following depiction: [ka] (R 2 )-C(=O)NH- or (R 2 )-NHC(=O)-.
[0297] Unless such clarification is given, divalent groups can be attached in both orientations, i.e., for example, -C(=O)NH- also includes -NHC(=O)- and vice versa.
[0298] A group or substituent often refers to a number of alternative groups / substituents for which the corresponding group is designated (e.g., R a , R b etc.) When such groups are used repeatedly in different parts of the molecule to define the compounds according to the invention, it is implied that the various uses should be considered completely independent of each other.
[0299] A therapeutically effective amount for purposes of this invention means an amount of a substance that is capable of eliminating symptoms of a disease, preventing or alleviating these symptoms, or prolonging the survival of the treated patient.
[0300] Ras family proteins as used herein are meant to include KRAS (V-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog), NRAS (neuroblastoma RAS viral oncogene homolog) and HRAS (Harvey murine sarcoma viral oncogene) and any mutants thereof.
[0301] A RAS G12C inhibitor as used herein refers to a compound capable of binding to one or more of the G12C mutant RAS proteins KRAS G12C (= KRAS G12C inhibitor), NRAS G12C (= NRAS G12C inhibitor) and / or HRAS G12C (= HRAS G12C inhibitor), in particular KRAS G12C, and negatively modulating or inhibiting all or part of the enzymatic activity of KRAS G12C and / or NRAS G12C and / or HRAS G12C, in particular KRAS G12C. Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the compounds of the present invention selectively react with KRAS G12C and / or HRAS G12C and / or NRAS G12C proteins (preferably KRAS G12C) by forming a covalent bond with the cysteine at position 12 of KRAS G12C and / or HRAS G12C and / or NRAS G12C (preferably KRAS G12C), resulting in modulation / inhibition of the enzymatic activity of these mutant Ras proteins.

[0402] Mechanism-based CYP3A4 Inhibition Assay (MBI 3A4): Time-dependent inhibition of CYP3A4 is assayed in human liver microsomes (0.02 mg / mL) using midazolam (15 μM) as substrate. Test compounds and water controls (wells without test compound) are preincubated with human liver microsomes (0.2 mg / mL) in the presence of NADPH (1 mM) at a concentration of 25 uM for 0 and 30 min. After preincubation, the incubation is diluted 1:10 and the substrate midazolam is added to the main incubation (15 min). The main incubation is quenched with acetonitrile and the formation of hydroxy-midazolam is quantified via LC / MS-MS. The formation of hydroxy-midazolam from the 30 min preincubation versus the 0 min preincubation is used as readout. Values less than 100% mean that the substrate midazolam is metabolized to a lower extent during the 30 min preincubation compared to the 0 min preincubation. In general, a low effect upon 30 min preincubation is desirable (corresponding to values close to 100% / no difference from values determined with the water control).

[0408] Caco-2 assay This assay provides information on the ability of compounds to cross cell membranes, the extent of oral absorption, and whether compounds are actively transported by uptake and / or efflux transporters. It uses permeability measurements across polarized confluent Caco-2 cell monolayers grown on permeable filter supports (Corning, catalog #3391). A 10 μM solution of test compound in assay buffer (128.13 mM NaCl, 5.36 mM KCl, 1 mM MgSO4, 1.8 mM CaCl2, 4.17 mM NaHCO3, 1.19 mM Na2HPO4, 0.41 mM NaH2PO4, 15 mM 2-[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazin-1-yl]ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), 20 mM glucose, pH 7.4) is added to the donor compartment of a cell chamber containing a monolayer of Caco-2 cells between the donor and receiver compartments. The receiver and donor compartments contain 0.25% bovine serum albumin (BSA) in assay buffer. Passive diffusion and / or active transport of compounds across the monolayer are measured in both apical to basolateral (ab) and basolateral to apical (ba) directions. Ab permeability (PappAB) represents drug absorption from the intestine to the blood via both passive permeation and active transport mechanisms mediated by efflux and uptake transporters expressed on Caco-2 cells, whereas ba permeability (PappBA) represents drug secretion from the blood back to the intestine. After preincubation at 37°C for 25-30 min, samples were taken from the receiver and donor compartments, respectively, at predefined time points (0, 30, 60 and 90 min). The concentration of the test compound in the samples was measured by HPLC / MS / MS, with samples from the donor compartment diluted 1:50 (v:v) in assay buffer and samples from the receiver compartment measured undiluted.
[0409] The apparent permeability in the two directions ab (PappAB) and ba (PappBA) is calculated according to the following formula:
