Detailed Description of the Invention
[0001] The present invention claims the priority of a prior application filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of China on April 28, 2022, with the patent application number 202210471474.9 and the title "Deubiquitinating Enzyme Inhibitor and Its Application". The full text of the prior application is incorporated herein by reference.
[0002] 〔Technical Field〕 The present invention belongs to the field of drugs, and specifically relates to a deubiquitinating enzyme inhibitor and its application.
[0003] 〔Background Art〕 Cells function normally due to the homeostasis of intracellular proteins, and this homeostasis is maintained by the dynamic balance of protein synthesis and degradation. Protein ubiquitination by ubiquitinating enzymes is the main pathway of proteasomal degradation, while protein deubiquitination generated by deubiquitinating enzymes is a necessary supplement for precisely regulating protein homeostasis. USP25 and USP28 are deubiquitinating enzymes with very close genes but located in different regions of cells, and both are closely correlated with the occurrence and progression of multiple types of neoplastic diseases. USP25 and USP28 maintain the homeostasis of these proteins by deubiquitinating multiple types of cancer proteins, epigenetic drivers, immune regulatory proteins, and other cytokines. Inhibiting the deubiquitinating activity of USP25 and USP28 can lead to excessive degradation of target proteins and ultimately cause cell death. Therefore, small molecule compounds having USP25 and USP28 inhibitory activities have potential medical uses as therapeutic agents for diseases correlated with cancer, inflammation, autoimmune diseases, viral infections, and bacterial infections.

Therefore, these compounds may exist in racemic form or optically active form. The compounds of the present invention or their intermediates can be separated into enantiomeric compounds by chemical or physical methods well known to those skilled in the art, or may be used in this form for synthesis. In the case of racemic amines, diastereomers are produced from the mixture by reaction with an optically active resolving reagent. Examples of suitable resolving reagents are optically active acids, such as tartaric acid in R and S forms, diacetyltartaric acid, dibenzoyltartaric acid, mandelic acid, malic acid, lactic acid, suitable N-protected amino acids (e.g., N-benzoylproline or N-benzenesulfonylproline) or various optically active camphorsulfonic acids. Enantiomeric resolution by chromatography can also be advantageously carried out with an optically active resolving reagent (e.g., dinitrobenzoylphenylglycine immobilized on silica gel, cellulose triacetate or other carbohydrate derivatives or chiral derivatized methacrylate polymers). Suitable eluents used for this purpose are solvent mixtures containing water or alcohol, such as hexane / isopropanol / acetonitrile.
[0057] Those skilled in the art understand that not all nitrogen-containing heterocycles can form N-oxides because nitrogen needs to have a lone pair of electrons available for oxidation to the oxide. However, those skilled in the art can identify nitrogen-containing heterocycles that can form N-oxides. It is also recognized by those skilled in the art that tertiary amines can form N-oxides. Synthetic methods for producing N-oxides of heterocycles and tertiary amines are well known to those skilled in the art, and the above synthetic methods involve oxidizing heterocycles and tertiary amines using peroxyacids such as peroxyacetic acid and m-chloroperbenzoic acid, hydrogen peroxide, alkyl hydroperoxides such as tert-butyl hydroperoxide, and dioxiranes such as sodium perborate and dimethyldioxirane. Methods for producing these N-oxides have already been widely described and summarized in the literature.
[0058] Pharmaceutically acceptable salts may be, for example, acid addition salts of the compounds of the present invention having a nitrogen atom in the chain or ring and sufficient basicity, for example, acid addition salts formed with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrofluoric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydroiodic acid, sulfuric acid, pyrosulfuric acid, phosphoric acid or nitric acid, or bisulfates, or formic acid, acetic acid, acetoacetic acid, pyruvic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, caproic acid, heptanoic acid, undecanoic acid, lauric acid, benzoic acid, salicylic acid, 2-(4-hydroxybenzoyl)benzoic acid, camphoric acid, cinnamic acid, cyclopentanepropionic acid, digluconic acid, 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, nicotinic acid, pamoic acid, pectinic acid, persulfuric acid, 3-phenylpropionic acid, picric acid, pivalic acid, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonic acid, itaconic acid, sulfamic acid, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, dodecylsulfuric acid, ethanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, 2-naphthalenesulfonic acid, naphthalenedisulfonic acid, camphorsulfonic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, stearic acid, lactic acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, malic acid, adipic acid, alginic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, D-gluconic acid, mandelic acid, ascorbic acid, glucoheptanoic acid, glycerophosphoric acid, aspartic acid, sulfosalicylic acid, hemisulfate or acid addition salts formed with organic acids such as thiocyanic acid.
[0059] Also, another suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound of the present invention having sufficient acidity is an alkali metal salt (e.g., sodium salt or potassium salt), an alkaline earth metal salt (e.g., calcium salt or magnesium salt), an ammonium salt, or a salt formed with an organic base that provides a physiologically acceptable cation, such as a salt formed with sodium ion, potassium ion, N-methylglucamine, dimethylglucamine, ethylglucamine, lysine, dicyclohexylamine, 1,6-hexanediamine, ethanolamine, glucosamine, meglumine, sarcosine, serinol, tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane, aminopropanediol, 1-amino-2,3,4-butanetriol. As an example, the above pharmaceutically acceptable salts include salts formed from a -COOH group and sodium ion, potassium ion, calcium ion, magnesium ion, N-methylglucamine, dimethylglucamine, ethylglucamine, lysine, dicyclohexylamine, 1,6-hexanediamine, ethanolamine, glucosamine, meglumine, sarcosine, serinol, tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane, aminopropanediol, 1-amino-2,3,4-butanetriol.
[0060] Also, the basic nitrogen-containing group may be quaternized with reagents such as lower alkyl halides such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl chlorides, bromides, and iodides, dialkyl sulfates such as dimethyl sulfate, diethyl sulfate, dibutyl sulfate, and dipentyl sulfate, long-chain halides such as decyl, lauryl, myristyl, and stearyl chlorides, bromides, and iodides, and aralkyl halides such as benzyl and phenethyl bromides. As an example, pharmaceutically acceptable salts include hydrochloride, sulfate, nitrate, bisulfate, hydrobromide, acetate, oxalate, citrate, methanesulfonate, formate, or meglumine salt, etc.
[0061] Since the compounds of the present invention may have multiple salt-forming sites, the above-mentioned "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" include not only salts formed at one salt-forming site in the compounds of the present invention, but also salts formed at two, three or all of the salt-forming sites therein. Therefore, in the above-mentioned "pharmaceutically acceptable salts", the molar ratio of the compound of formula (I) to the ion (anion) of the acid or the cation of the base required for salt formation may vary within a relatively wide range, for example, it may be 4:1 to 1:4, such as 3:1, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, etc.
[0062] According to the present invention, the pharmaceutically acceptable anions include those selected from anions generated by ionizing inorganic acids or organic acids. The above-mentioned "inorganic acids" include, but are not limited to, hydrochloric acid, hydrofluoric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydroiodic acid, sulfuric acid, pyrosulfuric acid, phosphoric acid or nitric acid. The above-mentioned "organic acids" include, but are not limited to, formic acid, acetic acid, acetoacetic acid, pyruvic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, caproic acid, heptanoic acid, undecanoic acid, lauric acid, benzoic acid, salicylic acid, 2-(4-hydroxybenzoyl)benzoic acid, camphoric acid, cinnamic acid, cyclopentanepropionic acid, digluconic acid, 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, nicotinic acid, pamoic acid, pectinic acid, persulfuric acid, 3-phenylpropionic acid, picric acid, pivalic acid, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonic acid, itaconic acid, sulfamic acid, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, dodecylsulfuric acid, ethanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, 2-naphthalenesulfonic acid, naphthalenedisulfonic acid, camphorsulfonic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, stearic acid, lactic acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, malic acid, adipic acid, alginic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, D-gluconic acid, mandelic acid, ascorbic acid, glucoheptanoic acid, glycerophosphoric acid, aspartic acid, sulfosalicylic acid, hemisulfate or thiocyanic acid.
[0063] Depending on the position and nature of different substituents, the compounds of the present invention may further contain one or more asymmetric centers. The asymmetric carbon atoms may exist in the (R) or (S) configuration. When there is only one asymmetric center, a racemic mixture is formed, and when multiple asymmetric centers are included, a mixture of diastereoisomers is obtained. In some cases, asymmetry may also occur because the rotation around a specific bond is hindered. For example, the central bond is bonded to two substituted aromatic rings of a specific compound. Moreover, the substituents may exist in the form of cis or trans isomers.
[0064] The compounds of the present invention further include all possible stereoisomers thereof, which are in the form of a single stereoisomer or any mixture of the above stereoisomers (e.g., R-isomer or S-isomer, or E-isomer or Z-isomer) in any ratio. The separation of a single stereoisomer (e.g., a single enantiomer or a single diastereoisomer) of the compounds of the present invention may be achieved by any suitable conventional technique (e.g., chromatography, especially, for example, chiral chromatography).
[0065] The term "tautomer" refers to a functional group isomer formed by the rapid movement of an atom within a molecule between two positions. The compounds of the present invention may exhibit the phenomenon of tautomerism. Tautomeric compounds may exist in two or more interconvertible forms. Proton-transfer tautomers are due to the movement of a hydrogen atom covalently bonded between two atoms. Tautomers generally exist in an equilibrium state, and when attempting to separate a single tautomer, a mixture is usually produced whose physicochemical properties match those of a mixture of compounds. The position of the equilibrium is determined by the chemical characteristics within the molecule. For example, in many aliphatic aldehydes and ketones such as acetaldehyde, the keto form predominates, while in phenol, the enol form predominates. The present invention includes all tautomeric forms of the compounds.
[0066] In the present invention, such compounds also include compounds labeled with isotopes, and the compounds labeled with the above isotopes are the same as those represented by formula (I), but one or more of the atoms therein are replaced with atoms having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number that is usually naturally present. Examples of isotopes that may be incorporated into the compounds of the present invention are isotopes of H, C, N, O, S, F, and Cl, for example, 2 H, 3 H, 13 C, 11 C, 14 C, 15 N, 18 O, 17 O, 32 P, 35 S, 18 F and 36 Cl. Compounds of the present invention containing the above isotopes and / or other isotopes of other atoms, their prodrugs, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the above compounds or the above prodrugs are within the scope of the present invention. Compounds labeled with certain isotopes of the present invention, for example, compounds incorporated with radioactive isotopes (e.g., 3 H and 14 C) may be used for measuring the tissue distribution of drugs and / or primers. Tritium (i.e., 3 H) and carbon-14 (i.e., 14 C) isotopes are particularly preferred because they are easy to manufacture and have detectability. In addition, substitution with relatively heavy isotopes (e.g., deuterium, i.e., 2 H) may provide certain therapeutic advantages resulting from higher metabolic stability (e.g., increased half-life in vivo or reduced required dosage), and accordingly, may be preferred in certain cases. The compounds of the present invention claimed by the claims may be particularly limited to be substituted with deuterium or tritium. Otherwise, hydrogen appearing in the substituents is not listed alone with the terms deuterium or tritium, but does not indicate that deuterium or tritium is excluded, and deuterium or tritium may also be included.
[0067] The terms "effective amount" or "therapeutically effective amount" refer to a sufficient amount of a compound described in the present invention to achieve the desired application (including, but not limited to, the treatment of the diseases defined below). The therapeutically effective amount may vary depending on the desired application (in vitro or in vivo), or the condition of the subject and the disease to be treated, such as the weight and age of the subject, the severity of the condition, and the method of administration, which may be readily determined by those skilled in the art. The specific dosage will vary depending on the particular compound selected, the method of administration to be followed, the presence or absence of co-administration with other compounds, the time schedule of administration, the tissue to be administered to, and the physical delivery system to be carried.
[0068] The term "adjuvant" refers to a pharmaceutically acceptable inert ingredient. Examples of the types of excipients include, but are not limited to, adhesives, disintegrants, lubricants, glidants, stabilizers, fillers, and diluents. The excipients may improve the handling properties of the pharmaceutical formulation, i.e., by enhancing fluidity and / or adhesiveness to make the formulation more suitable for direct compression. Examples of typical pharmaceutically acceptable carriers suitable for the above formulations include sugars such as lactose, sucrose, mannitol, and sorbitol; starches such as corn starch, tapioca starch, and potato starch; celluloses and their derivatives such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, and methyl cellulose; calcium phosphates such as dicalcium phosphate and tricalcium phosphate; alkali earth metal stearates such as sodium stearate, magnesium stearate, and calcium stearate; vegetable oils such as stearic acid, peanut oil, cottonseed oil, sesame oil, olive oil, and corn oil; nonionic, cationic, and anionic surfactants; glycol polymers; fatty alcohols; cereal hydrolyzates; and other non-toxic and compatible fillers, adhesives, disintegrants, buffers, preservatives, antioxidants, lubricants, colorants, etc., which are adjuvants commonly used in pharmaceutical formulations.
[0069] The term "solvate" refers to those forms of the compounds of the present invention that form a complex by coordination with solvent molecules in a solid or liquid state. A hydrate is a specific form of a solvate in which the coordination occurs with water. In the present invention, the preferred solvate is a hydrate. Furthermore, the pharmaceutically acceptable solvates (hydrates) of the compounds of general formula (I) of the present invention refer to co-crystals and clathrate compounds formed by the compound (I) and stoichiometrically one or more molecules of water or other solvents. Solvents that can be used for solvates include, but are not limited to, water, methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, and acetic acid.
[0070] The term "prodrug" or "drug precursor" refers to a compound that is converted in vivo to a compound represented by the above general formula or specific compound. Such a transformation is affected by the prodrug being hydrolyzed in the blood or being transformed to the parent structure via an enzyme in the blood or tissue. The prodrugs of the present invention may be esters. In the present invention, esters that can be used as prodrugs include phenyl esters, aliphatic (C 1 ~C 24 ) esters, acyloxymethyl esters, carbonates, carbamates, and amino acid esters. For example, one compound of the present invention contains a hydroxyl group or a carboxyl group, i.e., it is acylated to obtain a compound in prodrug form. Other prodrug forms include phosphate esters. For example, these phosphate ester compounds are obtained by phosphorylation of the hydroxyl group in the parent compound.

[0089] Example 2 The ubiquitin-rhodamine 110 (Ub-Rh110) method was adopted to measure the USP28 activity.
[0090] Purified USP28 and Ub-Rh110, a primer for measuring deubiquitination enzyme activity, were purchased from Andy Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (R&D Systems). The test compound was first dissolved in DMSO to prepare a 10 mM stock solution, and then diluted to the desired concentration [containing 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 2 mM CaCl 2 , 3 mM BME, 0.01% Prionex, 0.01% Triton X-100] (where the DMSO content ≦ 0.5%). Solutions of the test compound at different prepared concentrations were pre-mixed uniformly with USP28 (final concentration 4 nM) in a 96-well plate and incubated at r.t. for 30 minutes, and then Ub-Rh110 was added until it reached 125 nM. The final volume of the total reaction was 20 μL. Immediately after adding the primer, the detection of the fluorescence emitted (excitation wavelength 485 nm, emission wavelength 535 nm) with a microplate reader was started. A blank control group (DMSO instead of the test compound) and a primer group (without adding USP28) were set up simultaneously. The inhibition rate of the test compound against USP28 was calculated according to the following formula.
[0091] Inhibition % = (1 - [(fluorescence value 測定化合物 - fluorescence value プライマー ) / (fluorescence value 対照 - fluorescence value プライマー )] × 100% Based on the inhibition rate of the test compound against USP28 at different concentrations, its IC 50 value was calculated. The IC 50 values of the exemplified compounds I-01 to I-33 of the present invention against USP28 are shown in Table 2.
[0092] Example 3 The Ub-Rh110 method was adopted to measure the USP25 activity.
[0093] The purified USP25 was purchased from Andy Biotech. The experimental method was the same as that in Example 2. Among them, the final concentration of USP25 was 15 nM, the final concentration of the primer Ub-Rh110 was 125 nM, and the final volume of the total reaction was 20 μL.
