Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This application claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Application No. 63 / 328,097, filed April 6, 2022, and U.S. Application No. 63 / 393,405, filed July 29, 2022, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.

[0002] The present disclosure relates to modulators of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), pharmaceutical compositions comprising the modulators, methods of treating CFTR-mediated diseases, including cystic fibrosis, using such modulators, combination therapies and pharmaceutical compositions using such modulators, and processes and intermediates for making such modulators. [Background technology]

[0003] Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a recessive genetic disease that affects approximately 70,000 children and adults worldwide. Despite advances in CF treatment, there is no cure.

[0004] In patients with CF, mutations in endogenously expressed CFTR in respiratory epithelia result in reduced apical anion secretion, leading to an imbalance in ion and fluid transport. The resulting decrease in anion transport contributes to increased mucus accumulation in the lungs, accompanied by microbial infections that ultimately lead to death in CF patients. In addition to respiratory disease, CF patients typically suffer from gastrointestinal disorders and pancreatic insufficiency, which can be fatal if left untreated. Additionally, the majority of men with cystic fibrosis are infertile, and fertility is reduced in women with cystic fibrosis.

[0005] Sequence analysis of the CFTR gene has revealed a variety of disease-causing mutations (Cutting, G.R. et al. (1990) Nature 346:366-369; Dean, M. et al. (1990) Cell 61:863:870; and Kerem, B.S. et al. (1989) Science 245:1073-1080; Kerem, B.S. et al. (1990) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87:8447-8451). To date, over 2,000 mutations have been identified in the CFTR gene. The CFTR2 database currently contains information on only 432 of these identified mutations, leaving 352 mutations with sufficient evidence to define them as disease-causing. The most common disease-causing mutation is a deletion of phenylalanine at position 508 of the CFTR amino acid sequence, commonly referred to as the F508del mutation. This mutation occurs in many cases of cystic fibrosis and is associated with severe disease.

[0006] The deletion of residue 508 in CFTR prevents the nascent protein from folding correctly. This prevents the mutant protein from exiting the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and entering the plasma membrane. As a result, the number of CFTR channels for anion transport present in the membrane is much lower than that observed in cells expressing wild-type CFTR, i.e., CFTR without the mutation. In addition to impaired transport, this mutation also results in defective channel gating. The reduced number of channels in the membrane combined with the gating defect leads to reduced anion and fluid transport across epithelia. (Quinton, PM (1990), FASEB J. 4:2709-2727). Channels defective due to the F508del mutation are less functional than wild-type CFTR channels, but are still functional. (Dalemans et al. (1991), Nature London. 354:526-528; Pasyk and Foskett (1995), J. Cell. Biochem. 270:12347-50.) In addition to F508del, other disease-causing mutations in CFTR that result in defects in transport, synthesis, and / or channel gating alter anion secretion and can be modulated to modify disease progression and / or severity.

[0007] CFTR is a cAMP / ATP-mediated anion channel expressed in various cell types, including absorptive and secretory epithelial cells, where it controls anion flux across the membrane and also regulates the activity of other ion channels and proteins. In epithelial cells, normal CFTR function is essential for maintaining electrolyte transport throughout the body, including respiratory and digestive tissues. CFTR is a 1,480-amino acid protein that encodes a tandem repeat of transmembrane domains, each containing six transmembrane helices and a nucleotide-binding domain. The two transmembrane domains are linked via large, polar regulatory (R) domains to multiple phosphorylation sites that control channel activity and cellular trafficking.

[0008] Chloride transport is mediated by ENaC and CFTR, which are present on the apical membrane, and Na(+) receptors, which are expressed on the basolateral surface of the cell. + -K + -Pump and Cl - This occurs through the coordinated activity of the channels. Secondary active transport of chloride from the luminal side leads to the accumulation of intracellular chloride, followed by Cl - It can passively leave the cell through channels, resulting in vectorial transport. + / 2Cl - / K + Na symporter on the basolateral surface + -K + -ATPase pump and basolateral membrane K + The channel, and the positioning of luminal CFTR, regulates luminal CFTR-mediated chloride secretion: presumably because water itself is not actively transported, its flow across the epithelium depends on the small transepithelial osmotic gradient generated by the bulk flow of sodium and chloride. Recently, several CFTR-modulating compounds have been identified. However, there remains a need for compounds that can treat or reduce the severity of cystic fibrosis and other CFTR-mediated diseases, particularly the more severe forms of these diseases.

Individuals suffering from mutations in the gene encoding CFTR may benefit from receiving a CFTR modulator. CFTR mutations can affect CFTR abundance, i.e., the number of CFTR channels present on the cell surface, or can affect CFTR function, i.e., the functional ability of each channel to open and transport ions. Mutations that affect CFTR abundance include those that cause synthesis defects (Class I defects), processing and trafficking defects (Class II defects), reduced synthesis of CFTR (Class V defects), and reduced surface stability of CFTR (Class VI defects). Mutations that affect CFTR function include those that cause gating defects (Class III defects) and conductance defects (Class IV defects). Some CFTR mutations exhibit characteristics of more than one class. Certain mutations in the CFTR gene result in cystic fibrosis.

[0112] Accordingly, in some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a method of treating, reducing the severity of, or treating the symptoms of cystic fibrosis in a patient, comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of any of the novel compounds disclosed herein, such as a compound selected from any of the compounds of Formula I, Ia, Ia(i), Ib, Ib(i), Ic, Ic(i), Id, Id(i), Ie, Ie(i), If, If(i), II, III, and IV, compounds I-1 through I-265, compounds II-1 through II-38, compounds III-1 through III-25, compounds IV-1 through IV-106, tautomers thereof, deuterated derivatives of these compounds and tautomers, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts of any of the foregoing, alone or in combination with another active ingredient, e.g., one or more CFTR modulators. In some embodiments, the one or more CFTR modulators are selected from ivacaftor, deutoivacaftor, lumacaftor, and tezacaftor. In some embodiments, the patient has an F508del / minimal function (MF) genotype, an F508del / F508del genotype (homozygous for the F508del mutation), an F508del / gating genotype, or an F508del / residual function (RF) genotype. In some embodiments, the patient is heterozygous and has one F508del mutation. In some embodiments, the patient is homozygous for the N1303K mutation.

[0113] In some embodiments, between 5 mg and 500 mg of a compound disclosed herein, a tautomer thereof, a deuterated derivative of the compound or tautomer, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of any of the foregoing is administered daily.

[0114] In some embodiments, the patient has at least one F508del mutation in the CFTR gene. In some embodiments, the patient has a CFTR gene mutation that responds to a compound, tautomer, deuterated derivative, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the invention based on in vitro data. In some embodiments, the patient is heterozygous and has an F508del mutation in one allele and a mutation selected from Table 2 in the other allele. [Table 2-1] [Table 2-2]

[0115] In some embodiments, the present disclosure is also directed to methods of treatment using isotopically labeled compounds of the foregoing compounds or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, wherein the formulas and variables of such compounds and salts are each independently as described above or as described in any other embodiment above, except that one or more atoms therein are replaced (isotopically labeled) by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number of the atom normally occurring in nature. Examples of isotopes that are commercially available and suitable for the present disclosure include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, fluorine, and chlorine, e.g., 2 H, 3 H, 13 C. 14 C. 15 N, 18 O. 17 O. 31 P, 32 P, 35 S, 18 F, and 36 Examples include Cl.

[0116] Isotopically labeled compounds and salts can be used in several beneficial ways. They may be suitable for various types of assays, such as drug and / or substrate tissue distribution assays. For example, tritium ( 3 H) labeling and / or carbon-14 (14 C) labeled compounds are particularly useful in various types of assays, such as substrate tissue distribution assays, due to their relatively simple preparation and excellent detectability. 2 H) The labeled compound is therapeutically useful and non- 2 H-labeled compounds have potential therapeutic advantages over H-labeled compounds. 2 H) Labeled compounds and salts can have higher metabolic stability than non-isotopically labeled compounds due to the kinetic isotope effect described below. Higher metabolic stability directly translates into desired increased in vivo half-life or lower dosage. Isotopically labeled compounds and salts can generally be prepared by following the procedures disclosed in the synthetic schemes and related descriptions, examples, and preparations herein, substituting readily available isotopically labeled reactants for non-isotopically labeled reactants.

[0117] In some embodiments, isotopically labeled compounds and salts contain deuterium ( 2 H) labeled compounds and salts. In some particular embodiments, the isotopically labeled compounds and salts are deuterium ( 2 H) labeled in which one or more hydrogen atoms have been replaced by deuterium. In chemical structures, deuterium is represented as "D."

[0118] The concentration of an isotope (e.g., deuterium) incorporated in the isotopically labeled compounds and salts of the present disclosure can be defined by the isotopic enrichment factor. As used herein, the term "isotopic enrichment factor" means the ratio between the isotopic abundance and the natural abundance of a specified isotope. In some embodiments, when substituents in compounds of the present disclosure are expressed as deuterium, such compounds have an isotopic enrichment factor for each designated deuterium atom of at least 3500 (52.5% deuterium incorporation at each designated deuterium atom), at least 4000 (60% deuterium incorporation), at least 4500 (67.5% deuterium incorporation), at least 5000 (75% deuterium incorporation), at least 5500 (82.5% deuterium incorporation), at least 6000 (90% deuterium incorporation), at least 6333.3 (95% deuterium incorporation), at least 6466.7 (97% deuterium incorporation), at least 6600 (99% deuterium incorporation), or at least 6633.3 (99.5% deuterium incorporation).
