Description

[Technical field]

[0001] Related Applications This application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) of the filing date of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 278,718, filed November 12, 2021, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0002] Provided are certain agents that inhibit Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk), as well as methods for making and using such agents. [Background technology]

[0003] Protein kinases are a large multigene family of over 500 proteins that play important roles in the development and treatment of many human diseases in oncology, neurology and immunology.

[0004] Tec kinases are non-receptor tyrosine kinases that consist of five members (Tec (tyrosine kinase expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma), Btk (Bruton's tyrosine kinase), Itk (interleukin-2 (IL-2)-inducible T cell kinase, also known as Emt or Tsk), Rlk (resting lymphocyte kinase, also known as Txk), and Bmx (myeloid tyrosine kinase gene on chromosome X, also known as Etk)) and are expressed primarily in hematopoietic cells. However, expression of Bmx and Tec has been detected in endothelial cells and hepatocytes. Tec kinases (Itk, Rlk, and Tec) are expressed in T cells and are all activated downstream of the T cell receptor (TCR). Btk is a downstream mediator of B cell receptor (BCR) signaling involved in regulating B cell activation, proliferation, and differentiation. More specifically, Btk contains a PH domain that binds phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-triphosphate (PIP3). Binding of PIP3 induces Btk to phosphorylate phospholipase C (PLCy), which hydrolyzes PIP2 to generate two second messengers, inositol triphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG), which activate the protein kinase PKC, which in turn induces further B cell signaling. Mutations that impair Btk enzymatic activity result in the primary immunodeficiency disorder XLA syndrome (X-linked agammaglobulinemia). Given that Tec kinase plays an important role in both B and T cell signaling, it is a valuable target for autoimmune diseases.

[0005] Given the important role Btk plays in B cell signaling, there is a great need in the art for effective inhibitors of Btk. Summary of the Invention

[0203] D. In Vitro Assays In vitro BTK kinase assay: Btk-polyGAT-LS assay The purpose of the BTK in vitro assay is to determine the potency of compounds against BTK by measuring the IC50. Inhibition by compounds is measured by monitoring the amount of phosphorylation of a fluorescein-labeled polyGAT peptide (Invitrogen PV3611) in the presence of active BTK enzyme (Upstate 14-552), ATP, and inhibitors. BTK kinase reactions were performed in black 96-well plates (costar 3694). In a typical assay, a 24 pL aliquot of ATP / peptide master mix (final concentrations; ATP 10 μM, polyGAT 100 nM) in kinase buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 200 μM Na3PO4, 5 mM DTT, 0.01% Triton X-100, and 0.2 mg / ml casein) is added to each well. Next, 1 pL of 4X, 40X compound titration in 100% DMSO solvent is added, followed by 15 uL of BTK enzyme mix in 1X kinase buffer (final concentration 0.25 nM). The assay is incubated for 30 minutes and then stopped with 28 pL of 50 mM EDTA solution. An aliquot (5 uL) of the kinase reaction is transferred to a low volume white 384-well plate (Coming3674) and 5 pL of 2X detection buffer (Invitrogen PV3574, containing 4 nM Tb-PY20 antibody, Invitrogen PV3552) is added. The plate is covered and incubated for 45 minutes at room temperature. Time resolved fluorescence (TRF) is measured with a Molecular Devices M5 (excitation 332 nm, emission 488 nm, fluorescein emission 518 nm). IC50 values ​​are determined by four parameter fitting using 100% enzyme activity measured from the DMSO control and 0% activity measured from the EDTA control.

[0205] In vitro whole blood CD69 assay Human heparinized venous blood from healthy donors was dispensed into 96-well plates and serial dilutions of formula I compound in DMSO or drug-free DMSO were added thereto. The final concentration of DMSO in all wells was 0.1%. The plates were incubated at 37°C for 30 min. Drug-containing samples were stimulated with 0.1 μg / mL mouse anti-human IgD dextran (1A62) or 20 μg / mL polyclonal rabbit F(ab')2 anti-human IgD. Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) was added to the negative control unstimulated samples and the plates were incubated overnight (18-22 h) at 37°C. Cells were stained with fluorochrome-conjugated anti-CD19 and anti-CD69 antibodies. After removing red blood cells by hypotonic lysis using lysis / fixation solution and fixing the remaining cells, they were analyzed by flow cytometry. CD19+ B cells were gated and analyzed for CD69 expression. The percentage of B cells expressing CD69 was plotted against the log10 of drug concentration and a best-fit curve (variable Hill slope) was generated to obtain IC50 values. Table 2 shows the activity of selected exemplary compounds of the present invention in the in vitro whole blood CD69 assay, with each compound number corresponding to an Example number shown in Examples 1-31 herein. "†" indicates an IC of greater than 10 μM. 50 "††" indicates a value greater than 1 μM and less than 10 μM (1 μM <IC 50 IC ≦10μM 50 "†††" indicates IC less than 1 μM 50 Represents. [Table 2]
