Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention provides novel compounds of formula (I) and pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds. The compounds of formula (I) can act as PAR-2 inhibitors, whereby these compounds are very advantageous for use in therapy, particularly in the treatment or prevention of pain, autoimmune disorders, autoinflammatory disorders, inflammatory disorders, central nervous system disorders, spinal cord injuries, metabolic disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, cardiovascular disorders, fibrotic disorders, respiratory disorders, skin disorders, allergic disorders, or cancer.

Background Art

[0002] Protease-activated receptor (PAR) family G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) form the largest family of human membrane proteins (about 800 members) and are involved in many physiological processes. Compounds targeting GPCRs also account for approximately 27% of the global therapeutic drug market (Hauser et al., Nat. Rev. Drug Discov., 2017, 16(12):829-842).

[0003] Two percent of the human genome encodes proteases (also called proteinases), suggesting their importance in the proper functioning of the body (Hollenberg et al., Br. J. Pharmacol., 2014, 171(5):1180 - 94). Indeed, certain soluble and membrane - bound proteinases have been shown to regulate cell function by cleaving GPCRs at the cell surface, activating or inactivating receptors such as protease - activated receptors (PARs). The PAR family consists of four members (PAR - 1, PAR - 2, PAR - 3 and PAR - 4) and belongs to the class A GPCR receptor subfamily (Macfarlane et al., Pharmacological Reviews, 2001, 475(7357):519 - 23). They are expressed in a wide variety of cells such as platelets, immune cells, endothelial cells, muscle cells, astrocytes, neurons, epithelial cells and fibroblasts and are involved in a number of physiological and pathophysiological functions (Ossovskaya et al., Physiol. Rev., 2004, 84(2):579 - 621). PAR - 2: Mechanism of action Activation of PARs is accompanied by cleavage of the extracellular N - terminal portion of the receptor by a protease at a specific site. This exposes an amino - terminal amino acid sequence that folds and acts as a "tethered ligand" (TL), which binds to a conserved region within the second extracellular loop of the cleaved receptor and induces intracellular signaling (Ossovskaya et al., Physiol. Rev., 2004, 84(2):579 - 621; Hollenberg et al., Br. J. Pharmacol., 2014, 171(5):1180 - 94).

[0004] PAR - 2 is activated by multiple host - and pathogen - derived serine proteases such as trypsin, mast cell tryptase, kallikrein and TF - FVIIa and FVa - FXa, which are members of the coagulation cascade. In humans, these proteases cleave at the R 34 ↓S 35Cleavage with LIGKV exposes the tethered ligand SLIGKV. Artificially, in vitro, the synthetic peptide corresponding to TL(SLIGKV) can activate without cleaving the receptor.

[0005] Activation of PAR-2 is q , G i , and G 12 / 13 induces multiple signaling cascades involving several G proteins such as. The most well-described pathway so far involves its interaction with G q and mobilization of intracellular calcium that affects the function of multiple cell types. After repeated activation, PAR2 is rapidly desensitized via its endocytosis by a β-arrestin-dependent mechanism and its targeting to lysosomes (Ossovskaya et al., Physiol. Rev., 2004, 84(2):579 - 621). PAR-2 in the physiological state PAR-2 has been shown to have major functions in multiple organs (Ossovskaya et al., Physiol. Rev., 2004, 84(2):579 - 621). PAR-2 is expressed in neurons and glial cells in the brain. It is also found in spinal cord afferent neurons and nociceptive DRG neurons in the periphery. PAR-2 signaling is involved in the survival, sensitization and signal transmission of these cells, thereby controlling neuronal damage, inflammation and pain.

[0006] PAR-2 is involved in the function of the cardiovascular system. Indeed, its activation induces relaxation or contraction of some blood vessels such as pulmonary arteries, coronary arteries and intramyocardial arteries, and thus can regulate blood flow. It also controls endothelial inflammation and repair that affect vascular permeability.

[0007] PAR-2 expression has been detected in the small intestine, colon, liver, pancreas, and stomach within the gastrointestinal system. Its activation is involved in the regulation of ion transport from the intestinal mucosa, contraction of the gastric longitudinal muscle, secretion of pancreatic juice, saliva, and gastric juice, excitation of enteric muscle neurons, integrity of the intestinal barrier, and release of prostaglandins from intestinal cells. Therefore, PAR-2 plays a major role in the control of body fluid secretion, intestinal inflammation, and gastrointestinal hyperalgesia.

[0008] Since PAR-2 is expressed by epithelial and endothelial cells in the lung, it is involved in airway function. Its activation has been shown to regulate bronchodilation or bronchoconstriction (depending on the experimental system used), ion transport in the airway epithelium, and proliferation and activation of airway smooth muscle cells and lung fibroblasts. Therefore, PAR-2 may regulate airway resistance, lung inflammation, and pulmonary fibrosis.

[0009] In the skin, PAR-2 expression has been detected in keratinocytes, the microvascular system, and immune cells. Its activation is involved in skin pigmentation, skin inflammation, and wound healing.

[0010] Finally, PAR-2 expression has been detected in immune cells such as macrophages, where it affects cell maturation and cytokine secretion, thereby regulating inflammation. PAR-2 in disease states Since PAR-2 regulates numerous and diverse biological processes, it is not surprising that its dysfunction is involved in an equal number of disease states.

[0011] PAR-2 is expressed in the brain, dorsal root ganglia, spinal cord sensory neurons, and nociceptive DRG neurons. Its activation by proteases such as tryptase released by mast cells leads to calcium and cAMP signaling (Steinhoff et al., Nat Med, 2000, 6(2):151-158; Zhao et al., J Biol Chem., 2015, 290(22):13875-13887). This promotes inflammation and hyperalgesia via the release of CGRP (calcitonin gene-related peptide) and SP (substance P) from spinal cord sensory neurons and the sensitization of Transient Receptors Potential Vanilloid (TRPV) TRPV1 and TRPV4 in sensory neurons (Vergnolle et al., Nat Med, 2001, 6(2):151-158; Steinhoff et al., Nat Med, 2000, 6(2):151-158; Amadesi et al., J Neurosci, 2004, 24(18):4300-4312; Grant et al., J Physiol, 2007, 578(Pt 3), 715-733; Jimenez Vargas et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 2018, 115(31):E7438-E7447). This is supported by a large amount of in vivo data available in the literature demonstrating that inhibition of PAR-2 reduces inflammatory pain, neuropathic pain, cancer pain, and treatment-induced pain in animal models (Bao et al., Expert Opin Ther Targets, 2014;18(1):15-27; Chen et al., Neuroscience, 2011, 193, 440-451). Thus, PAR-2 is clearly involved in the generation and transmission of pain signals, neurogenic inflammation, and nociception.

[0012] The expression of PAR-2 and protease increases in the spinal cord after contusion-compression injury (Radulovic et al., Neurobiol Dis, 2015, 83, 75-89; Li et al., Physiol.Res., 2019, 68(2):305-316). Its activation can result in cAMP signaling in oligodendrocytes (Yoon et al., Glia, 2017, 65(12):2070-2086). In vitro and in vivo experiments in rodents have shown that inhibition of PAR-2 signaling during experimental spinal cord injury reduces inflammation, scar formation, and mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia, and improves remyelination of oligodendrocytes and motor function recovery (Radulovic et al., Neurobiol Dis, 2015, 83, 75-89; Li et al., Physiol.Res., 2019, 68(2):305-316; Yoon et al., Glia, 2017, 65(12):2070-2086; Li et al., Physiol.Res., 2019, 68(2):305-316; Wei et al., Physiol.Res., 2016, 65(1):145-53). Therefore, PAR-2 inhibitors may improve recovery from spinal cord injury.

[0013] Disorders of the immune system underlie many diseases. In all cases, the immune system attacks normal components of the organism as foreign substances. This becomes pathogenic and induces lesions in specific organs (e.g., type 1 diabetes in the pancreas or multiple sclerosis in the brain) or throughout the body (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus, SLE).

[0014] Cytokines are small proteins involved in cell signaling that direct the immune response. Dysregulation of their regulation underlies the etiology of autoinflammatory diseases. These conditions are characterized by immune activation, infiltration, and abnormal cytokine production. They include conditions such as rheumatic inflammatory diseases, skin inflammatory diseases, pulmonary inflammatory diseases, muscle inflammatory diseases, intestinal inflammatory diseases, brain inflammatory diseases, and autoimmune diseases.

[0015] Autoinflammatory diseases progress chronically, but some conditions can lead to acute immune disorders. In fact, a sudden, excessive, and uncontrolled release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, also known as cytokine storms, has been observed in graft-versus-host disease, multiple sclerosis, pancreatitis, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, viral diseases, bacterial infections, hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, and sepsis (Gerlach H, F1000Res, 2016, 5, 2909; Tisoncik JR et al., Microbiol Mol Biol Rev, 2012, 76(1):16 - 32). In these conditions, dysregulation of the immune response and subsequent excessive inflammation can lead to multi-organ failure, which can be fatal.

[0016] PAR-2 affects the production of inflammatory cytokines and the function of various organs, and numerous studies have demonstrated that it is a promising therapeutic target for various autoinflammatory diseases.

[0017] The expression of protease and PAR-2 is significantly increased in organs directly involved in autoinflammatory diseases such as the coronary arteries of patients with atherosclerosis (Jones et al., Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol, 2018, 38(6):1271-1282), the skin of patients with atopic dermatitis and psoriasis (Nattkemper et al., Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2018, 138:1311-1317), the joints of patients with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis (Tindell et al., Rheum Int, 2012, 32(10):3077-86), the colon of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (Christerson et al., J Crohns Colitis, 2009, 3(1):15-24; Kim et al., Inflamm Bowel Dis., 2003, 9(4):224-9), the lungs of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (Bardou et al., Am J Respir Crit Care Med, 2016, 193(8):847-60), the liver of patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (Rana et al., Mol Metab, 2019, 29:99-113), and the active demyelinated areas in the brains of patients with multiple sclerosis (Noorbakhsh et al., J Exp Med, 2006, 203(2):425-35).

[0018] Therefore, PAR-2 activation leads to calcium signaling in multiple cells such as osteoblasts, fibroblasts, monocytes, and keratinocytes (Abraham et al., Bone, 2000, 26(1):7-14; Lin et al., J. Cell. Mol. Med., 2015, 19(6):1346-56; Johansson et al., J leukoc Biol, 2005, 78(4):967-75; Joo et al., Bio Mol Ther, 2016, 24(5):529-535). This signaling is associated with cell maturation and / or migration, activation, and secretion of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-8, IL-6, TNFα, and IL-1β in various cell types such as vascular smooth muscle cells, synoviocytes, monocytes, keratinocytes, astrocytes, chondrocytes, adipocytes, and fibroblasts (Demetz et al., Atherosclerosis, 2010, 212:466-471; Kelso et al., Arthritis Rheum, 2007, 56(3):765-71; Johansson et al., J Leukoc Biol, 2005, 78(4):967-75; Steven et al., Innate Immun, 2013, 19(6):663-72; Kim et al., Bio Mol Ther, 2012, 20(5):463-9; Radulovic et al., Neurobiol Dis, 2015, 83, 75-89; Lin et al., J. Cell. Mol. Med., 2015, 19(6):1346-56; Bagher et al., Cell Communi and Signal, 2018, 16(1), 59; Huang et al., Aging, 2019, 11(24):12532-12545; Bandeanlou et al., Nat. Med., 2011, 17:1490-1497).PAR-2 signaling also affects tissue remodeling through its role in the survival of key cells such as neurons and chondrocytes in central nervous system disorders and rheumatic inflammatory diseases (Afkhami-Goli et al., J Immunol, 2007, 179(8):5493-503; Huang et al., Aging, 2019, 11(24):12532-12545), as well as the secretion of growth factors (e.g., CTGF) and extracellular components (e.g., collagen) (Lin et al., Mol. Med., 2015, 21(1):576-83; Chung et al., J Biol Chem, 2013, 288(52):37319-31). It is important to note that other signaling pathways such as cyclic AMP in alveolar macrophages and Gi in hepatocytes are thought to be important for regulating cytokine secretion and steatosis, respectively (Rayees et al., Cell Rep, 2019, 27(3):793-805.e4; Rana et al., Mol Metab, 2019, 29, 99-113).

[0019] In vivo, in mouse models, inhibition of PAR-2 signaling by pharmacological or genetic modification has been clearly shown to significantly reduce the symptoms of atherosclerosis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, atopic dermatitis, multiple sclerosis, arthritis, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, and inflammatory bowel disease (Jones et al., Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol, 2018, 38(6):1271-1282; Borensztajn et al., Am J Pathol, 2010, 177(6):2753-64; Moniaga et al., Am J Pathol, 2013, 182:841e851; Noorbakhsh et al., J Exp Med, 2006, 203(2):425-35, Ferrell et al., J Clin Invest, 2003, 111(1):35-41; Rana et al., Mol Metab, 2019, 29:99-113; Hyun et al., Gut, 2008, 57(9):1222-9). Therefore, PAR-2 plays a major role in the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the etiology of autoinflammatory diseases.

[0020] PAR-2-dependent inflammation also impairs cell metabolism and promotes insulin resistance, which can in turn lead to the etiology of diabetes, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. Indeed, PAR-2 expression in adipose tissue correlates with the increase in BMI of volunteer people, and inhibition of PAR-2 signaling attenuates the symptoms of metabolic disorders in mice (Lim et al., FASEB Journal, 2013, 27(12):4757-4767; Badeanlou et al., Nat. Med., 2011, 17(11):1490-1497).

[0021] Many airborne allergens derived from indoor dust mites and cockroach allergens contain protease activity. This protease activity can activate PAR-2 expressed on human airway epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and immune cells and induce calcium signaling. This ultimately results in the release of inflammatory cytokines and angiogenesis responses that underlie the etiology of cockroach allergy and allergic asthma (Do et al., Allergy, 2016, 71(4):463-74; Asosingh et al., J Clin Invest, 2018, 128(7):3116-3128). In vivo, in mice, functional blockade of PAR-2 in the airways during allergen challenge improves allergen-induced inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness (Asaduzzaman et al., Clin Exp Allergy, 2015, 45(12):1844-55).

[0022] The expression of PAR-2 and protease is also significantly increased in many cancer types such as cervical squamous cell carcinoma, endocervical adenocarcinoma, colorectal adenocarcinoma, esophageal cancer, glioblastoma multiforme, acute myeloid leukemia, lung adenocarcinoma, lung squamous cell carcinoma, ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, prostate adenocarcinoma, rectal adenocarcinoma, gastric adenocarcinoma, testicular germ cell tumor, endometrial carcinoma of the uterine corpus, carcinosarcoma of the uterus, hepatocellular carcinoma, and breast cancer, which may be associated with poor prognosis (Kaufmann et al., Carcinogenesis, 2009, 30(9):1487-96; Su et al., Oncogene, 2009, 28(34):3047-57; Arakaki et al., Int. J. Mol. Sci. 2018, 19, 1886). Activation of this receptor in cancer cells can lead to multiple signaling cascades such as calcium, β-arrestin, and Gi signaling (Kaufmann et al., J Cancer Res Clin Oncol, 2011, 137(6):965-73; Wu et al., Mol Med Rep, 2014, 10(6):3021-6; Ge et al., J Biol Chem, 2004, 279(53):55419-24). This ultimately controls cancer cell migration, proliferation, survival, and the expression of inflammatory cytokines (Jiang et al., J Pharmacol Exp Ther, 2018, 364(2):246-257; Darmoul et al., British J Cancer, 2001, 85(5):772-9; Quan et al., Oncol Res., 2019, 27(7):779-788).The expression of PAR-2 on other cells in the tumor microenvironment, such as immune cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and DRG neurons, can also control the immune response against cancer cells, fibrosis, as well as angiogenesis and cancer-induced pain (Mubbach et al., Mol cancer, 2016, 15(1):54; Uusitalo-Jarvinen et al., Arteriocler Thromb Vasc Biol, 2007, 27(6):1456-62; D’Andrea et al., Am J Pathol, 2001, 158(6):2031-41; Graf et al., Sci Immunol, 2019, 4(39):eaaw8405; Qian et al., Oncol Lett, 2018, 16(2):1513-20; Tu et al., J Neurosci, 2021, 41(1):193-210). In vivo, in mouse models of different cancers such as breast cancer, liver cancer, and colon cancer, inhibition of PAR-2 has been shown to be an efficient way to reduce tumor growth and increase survival (Versteeg et al., Cancer Res, 2008, 68(17):7219-27; Sun et al., World J Gastroenterol, 2018, 24(10):1120-1133; Quan et al., Oncol Res., 2019, 27(7):779-788). Importantly, in multiple syngeneic mouse models, inhibition of PAR2 or one of its ligands led to a decrease in the infiltration of immunosuppressive tumor-associated macrophages and regulatory T cells, while increasing cytotoxic T cells in the tumor and antigen-presenting cells in the draining regional lymph nodes, which triggered an anti-tumor immune response and increased the efficacy of currently used immune checkpoint inhibitors in the clinic (Graf et al., Sci Immunol, 2019, 4(39):eaaw8405). Therefore, PAR-2 constitutes a promising therapeutic target in oncology and immuno-oncology.

[0023] Considering the role of PAR-2 in multiple pathophysiological states, inhibitors of this receptor may have therapeutic applications in a variety of human diseases. This has attracted great interest from the pharmaceutical industry for the development of such compounds. Various PAR-2 inhibitors and their therapeutic uses have been proposed, for example, in Yau et al., Expert Opin Ther Pat, 2016, 26(4):471-83; Jiang et al., J Pharmacol Exp Ther, 2018, 364(2):246-57; WO2004 / 002418; WO2005 / 030773; WO2012 / 012843; WO2012 / 026765; WO2012 / 026766; WO2012 / 101453; WO2015 / 048245; WO2016 / 154075; WO2017 / 194716; WO2017 / 197463; WO2018 / 043461 (EP3508487); WO2018 / 057588; WO2019 / 163956 (EP3760631); WO2019 / 199800; JP2020 / 007262; and WO2021 / 106864. However, despite the efforts made in the past decade, PAR-2 inhibitors have not yet reached the market (Yau et al., Expert Opin Ther Pat., 2016, 26(4):471-83). Therefore, there remains an unmet need for novel and / or improved PAR-2 inhibitors with high potency, selectivity, and bioavailability.

[0050] The present invention also relates to a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof conjugated to a membrane anchor via a linker. The corresponding conjugate can be used in place of the compound of formula (I) for any of the uses or purposes described herein, for example, for use in the treatment or prevention of a PAR-2 mediated disease or disorder including any of the diseases / disorders described above herein. Such a conjugate is advantageous in that it anchors the conjugated compound of formula (I) to the cell membrane in proximity to PAR-2 and thus enables easier interaction with that PAR-2.

[0051] The membrane anchor may be any moiety capable of inserting / partitioning into a lipid membrane (preferably a cell membrane), particularly a hydrophobic or lipid moiety, whereby the conjugated compound of formula (I) is "fixed" to the corresponding lipid membrane. For example, the membrane anchor may be a C 12~20 alkanoyl group (e.g., hexadecanoyl group, -CO-(CH2) 14-CH3), cholesterol, cholestanol, sphingolipids, or glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI). The membrane anchor may also be, for example, as described in WO2017 / 197463, which is incorporated herein by reference, particularly the portions of defined formulas (II), (III), (VI), (VII), (VIII), (IX), (X), (XI), (XII), (XIII), (XIV) or (XV) on pages 10 to 15 of WO2017 / 197463.

[0052] The linker is covalently attached to the membrane anchor and the compound of formula (I) (or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof). The linker is not particularly limited, but preferably has a length of about 1 nm to about 50 nm, and / or preferably provides a distance of at least 8 atoms between the compound of formula (I) and the membrane anchor. For example, the linker may (or may consist of) one or more polyethylene glycol (PEG) units, or may (or may consist of) a peptide (e.g., may be composed of 2 to 200 amino acid residues). The linker may also be, for example, a moiety of formula (IV), (XX), (XXI) or (XXII) described and defined in WO2017 / 197463, which is incorporated herein by reference, particularly on pages 15 to 18 of WO2017 / 197463. The linker may further be, for example, linker B or B' described and defined in WO2005 / 097199, which is incorporated herein by reference, or a moiety of any one of formulas 20, 2000, 2001, 21, 2100, 2101, 22, 23, 28 or 28a. It will be understood that the linker may be attached to the membrane anchor via any suitable chemical linkage, for example, via an amide linkage or an ester linkage. Similarly, the linker may be attached to the compound of formula (I) (or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof) via any suitable chemical linkage, for example, via an amide linkage or an ester linkage. The linker may be attached at any position (or to any functional group) of the compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, but the linker is attached to group A or substituent R on group A A is preferred.

[0053] Furthermore, the linker and the membrane anchor may together form any one of the moieties described as being attached to a PAR-2 inhibitor in WO2017 / 197463 (incorporated herein by reference), or a PAR-2 modulating compound in WO2017 / 173347 (incorporated herein by reference), or a pharmacophore in WO2005 / 097199 (incorporated herein by reference). Suitable protocols for the preparation of the corresponding linkers and membrane anchors are also described in these documents.

Thus, for example, R 2A may be 4-chloro-3-fluorophenyl, and R 2B may be C 1~5 alkyl (e.g., methyl). Each particularly preferred example of R 2A and R 2B is methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl (e.g., (S)-sec-butyl or (R)-sec-butyl), tert-butyl, cyclopropylmethyl, 1-methylcyclobutyl, 3-(methoxymethyl)cyclobutylmethyl, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl , -C(-CH3)(-CH3)-CH2-O-CH3, -C(-CH3)(-CH3)-CH2-O-CH2-CH3, -CH(-CH3)-CH2-O-CH3 (e.g., (S)-CH(-CH3)-CH2-O-CH3 or (R)-CH(-CH3)-CH2-O-CH3), -CH2CH2-O-CH3, -CH(-CH2-O-CH3)(-CH2-O-CH3), -CH2-(cyclobuta-1,3-diyl)-CH2-O-CH3, pyridin-2-ylmethyl, 6-methoxypyridin-2-ylmethyl, or 1-methyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl. Even more preferably, R 2A and R 2B are each independently C 1~5 alkyl (e.g., methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, or tert-butyl). Thus, as particularly preferred examples, R 2A and R 2B may each be methyl. It will be understood that for each of the general and preferred definitions of R 2A and R 2B described above herein, the groups R 2A and R 2B may be the same or different.

[0123] Furthermore, as described above, the group R 2A also is the group R Y (when present; preferably, the group R 2A bonded to a ring atom directly adjacent to the carbocyclic atom having R Y ) which joins with each other to form, together with the ring atom to which the groups R 2A and R Y are bonded, a carbocyclyl or a heterocyclyl, and the carbocyclyl or the heterocyclyl may be substituted with one or more (e.g., 1, 2 or 3) groups R Cyc . In particular, the group R 2A may join with the group R Y (when present), and the group R Y is bonded to a ring atom directly adjacent to the carbocyclic atom having R 2A to form, together with the ring atom to which the groups R 2A and R Y are bonded, a carbocyclyl or a heterocyclyl, and the carbocyclyl or the heterocyclyl may be substituted with one or more groups R Cyc , and the corresponding carbocyclyl or heterocyclyl is fused to ring B, and it will be appreciated that ring B together with ring D gives rise to a fused tricyclic ring system. The carbocyclyl formed from the groups R 2A and R Y (and from the ring atoms to which these groups R 2A and R Y are bonded) may be, for example, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, or aryl, and preferably, the carbocyclyl is cycloalkyl, such as cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl. The carbocyclyl formed from the groups R 2A and R Y (and from the ring atoms to which these groups R 2A and R YThe heterocyclyl formed (from the ring atoms to which it is attached) may be, for example, heterocycloalkyl, heterocycloalkenyl, or heteroaryl, and preferably, the heterocyclyl is heterocycloalkyl, such as tetrahydrofuranyl (which may be attached, for example, via the ring carbon atoms in the 2- and 3-positions). Thus, R 2A and group R Y (preferably, R 2A is attached to a ring atom directly adjacent to the carbocyclic atom having R Y ) are joined to each other, they are joined to each other and together with the ring atoms to which they are attached to form cycloalkyl or heterocycloalkyl, and it is particularly preferred that the cycloalkyl or the heterocycloalkyl may be substituted with one or more groups R Cyc . R 2A and group R Y are joined to each other, it will be understood that group R 2B has the same meaning as described above herein (refer to the general and preferred meanings of R 2A and R 2B when they are not joined to each other for R 2B ).

For example, each heteroatom-containing ring contained in said unsaturated alicyclic ring group may contain 1 or 2 O atoms and / or 1 or 2 S atoms (which may optionally be oxidized) and / or 1, 2, 3 or 4 N atoms (which may optionally be oxidized), provided that the total number of heteroatoms in the corresponding heteroatom-containing ring is from 1 to 4 and that at least one carbon ring atom (which may optionally be oxidized) is present in the corresponding heteroatom-containing ring. "Heterocycloalkenyl" may refer to, for example, imidazolinyl (e.g., 2-imidazolinyl (i.e., 4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazolyl), 3-imidazolinyl, or 4-imidazolinyl), tetrahydropyridinyl (e.g., 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridinyl), dihydropyridinyl (e.g., 1,2-dihydropyridinyl or 2,3-dihydropyridinyl), pyranyl (e.g., 2H-pyranyl or 4H-pyranyl), thiopyranyl (e.g., 2H-thiopyranyl or 4H-thiopyranyl), dihydropyranyl, dihydrofuranyl, dihydropyrazolyl, dihydropyrazinyl, dihydroisoindolyl, octahydroquinolinyl (e.g., 1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,7-octahydroquinolinyl), or octahydroisoquinolinyl (e.g., 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroisoquinolinyl).Unless otherwise defined, "heterocycloalkenyl" preferably refers to a 3- to 11-membered unsaturated alicyclic ring group that is a monocyclic ring or a fused ring system (e.g., a fused ring system composed of two fused rings), the ring group contains one or more (e.g., 1, 2, 3, or 4) ring heteroatoms independently selected from O, S, and N, one or more S ring atoms (if present) and / or one or more N ring atoms (if present) may be oxidized, one or more carbon ring atoms may be oxidized, the ring group contains at least one double bond between adjacent ring atoms and does not contain any triple bonds between adjacent ring atoms. More preferably, "heterocycloalkenyl" refers to a 5- to 7-membered monocyclic unsaturated non-aromatic ring group containing one or more (e.g., 1, 2, or 3) ring heteroatoms independently selected from O, S, and N, one or more S ring atoms (if present) and / or one or more N ring atoms (if present) may be oxidized, one or more carbon ring atoms may be oxidized, the ring group contains at least one double bond between adjacent ring atoms and does not contain any triple bonds between adjacent ring atoms.

[0220] As used herein, the term "halogen" refers to fluoro (-F), chloro (-Cl), bromo (-Br), or iodo (-I). As used herein, the term "haloalkyl" refers to an alkyl group substituted with one or more (preferably 1 to 6, more preferably 1 to 3) halogen atoms independently selected from fluoro, chloro, bromo, and iodo, preferably all fluoro atoms. The maximum number of halogen atoms is limited by the number of available bonding sites and thus depends on the number of carbon atoms in the alkyl portion of the haloalkyl group. "Haloalkyl" can refer to, for example, -CF3, -CHF2, -CH2F, -CF2-CH3, -CH2-CF3, -CH2-CHF2, -CH2-CF2-CH3, -CH2-CF2-CF3, or -CH(CF3)2. A particularly preferred "haloalkyl" group is -CF3.

[0221] Unless otherwise clearly indicated or unless the context is inconsistent, the terms "bond" and "covalent bond" are used synonymously herein. As used herein, the terms "optional", "optionally" and "may" mean that the indicated feature may be present, but may also be absent. Whenever the terms "optional", "optionally" or "may" are used, the invention specifically relates to both possibilities, i.e., whether the corresponding feature is present or, alternatively, whether the corresponding feature is absent. For example, the expression "X may be substituted with Y" (or "X may be replaced with Y") means that X is either substituted with Y or unsubstituted. Similarly, when a component of a composition is indicated to be "optional", the invention specifically relates to both possibilities, i.e., whether the corresponding component is present (contained in the composition) or whether the corresponding component is absent from the composition.

[0222] In this specification, various groups are referred to as "optionally substituted". In general, these groups may have one or more substituents, such as 1, 2, 3 or 4 substituents. It will be understood that the maximum number of substituents is limited by the number of available bonding sites on the substituted moiety. Unless otherwise defined, the "optionally substituted" groups referred to herein preferably have 2 or fewer substituents, particularly may have only 1 substituent. Further, unless otherwise defined, it is preferred that there are no optional substituents, i.e., the corresponding group is unsubstituted.

[0223] One of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that the substituents included in the compounds of the present invention may be attached to the remainder of each compound via several different positions of the corresponding specific substituent. Unless otherwise defined, the preferred attachment positions for the various specific substituents are as illustrated by the examples.

[0224] As used herein, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context clearly dictates otherwise, the terms "a," "an," and "the" are used interchangeably with "one or more" and "at least one." Thus, for example, a composition containing "a" compound of formula (I) can be construed to refer to a composition containing "one or more" compounds of formula (I).

[0225] Whenever a numerical range is provided / disclosed herein, it should be understood that every value and subrange subsumed by that numerical range is intended to be encompassed within the scope of the invention. Thus, the invention specifically and individually relates to each value within the numerical ranges disclosed herein, and to each subrange subsumed by the numerical ranges disclosed herein.

[0226] As used herein, the term "about" preferably refers to ±10% of the indicated numerical value, more preferably to ±5% of the indicated numerical value, and in particular to the exact numerical value indicated. When the term "about" is used in connection with the endpoints of a range, this preferably refers to a range from -10% of the indicated lower endpoint value to +10% of the indicated upper endpoint value, more preferably to a range from -5% of the lower endpoint to +5% of the upper endpoint, and even more preferably to the range defined by the exact numerical values of the lower and upper endpoints.

[0227] As used herein, the term "comprising" (or "comprise", "comprises", "contain", "contains", or "containing") has the meaning of "including, among other things", i.e., "including... among additional optional elements", unless otherwise clearly indicated or inconsistent with the context. In addition, this term also includes the narrower meanings of "consisting essentially of" and "consisting of". For example, the term "A comprising B and C" has the meaning of "A including, among other things, B and C", and A may further contain additional optional elements (e.g., "A containing B, C and D" is also included), but this term also includes the meaning of "A consisting essentially of B and C" and the meaning of "A consisting of B and C" (i.e., A does not contain components other than B and C).

[0228] The scope of the present invention encompasses all pharmaceutically acceptable salt forms of the compounds of formula (I) which can be formed, for example, by protonation with an inorganic or organic acid of an atom having a lone pair of electrons susceptible to protonation, such as an amino group, or as a salt of an acidic group (such as a carboxylic acid group) with a physiologically acceptable cation. Exemplary base addition salts include, for example, alkali metal salts such as sodium or potassium salts; alkaline earth metal salts such as calcium or magnesium salts; zinc salts; ammonium salts; aliphatic amine salts such as trimethylamine, triethylamine, dicyclohexylamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, procaine salt, meglumine salt, ethylenediamine salt, or choline salt; aralkylamine salts such as N,N-dibenzylethylenediamine salt, benzathine salt, benethamine salt; heterocyclic aromatic amine salts such as pyridine salt, picoline salt, quinoline salt or isoquinoline salt; quaternary ammonium salts such as tetramethylammonium salt, tetraethylammonium salt, benzyltrimethylammonium salt, benzyltriethylammonium salt, benzyltributylammonium salt, methyltrioctylammonium salt or tetrabutylammonium salt; and basic amino acid salts such as arginine salt, lysine salt, or histidine salt.Exemplary acid addition salts include, for example, mineral acid salts such as hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, sulfate (e.g., sulfate or bisulfate, etc.), nitrate, phosphate (e.g., phosphate, hydrogen phosphate, or dihydrogen phosphate, etc.), carbonate, bicarbonate, perchlorate, borate, or thiocyanate; organic acid salts such as acetate, propionate, butyrate, pentanoate, hexanoate, heptanoate, octanoate, cyclopentanepropionate, decanoate, undecanoate, oleate, stearate, lactate, maleate, oxalate, fumarate, tartrate, malate, citrate, succinate, adipate, gluconate, glycolate, nicotinate, benzoate, salicylate, ascorbate, pamoate (embonate), camphorsulfonate, glucoheptanoate, or pivalate; sulfonate salts such as methanesulfonate (mesylate), ethanesulfonate (esylate), 2-hydroxyethanesulfonate (isethionate), benzenesulfonate (besylate), p-toluenesulfonate (tosylate), 2-naphthalenesulfonate (napsylate), 3-phenylsulfonate, or camphorsulfonate; glycerophosphate; and acidic amino acid salts such as aspartate or glutamate. Further pharmaceutically acceptable salts are described in the literature, for example, Stahl PH & Wermuth CG (eds.), "Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection, and Use", Wiley-VCH, 2002 and the references cited therein. Preferred pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compound of formula (I) include hydrochloride, hydrobromide, mesylate, sulfate, tartrate, fumarate, acetate, citrate, and phosphate. Particularly preferred pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compound of formula (I) are hydrochloride. Accordingly, a compound of formula (I) comprising any one of the specific compounds of formula (I) described herein is preferably in the form of hydrochloride, hydrobromide, mesylate, sulfate, tartrate, fumarate, acetate, citrate, or phosphate, and particularly preferably the compound of formula (I) is in the form of hydrochloride.

[0229] The present invention also relates specifically to a compound of formula (I) comprising any one of the specific compounds of formula (I) described herein in non-salt form. Furthermore, the scope of the present invention encompasses, for example, solvates with water (i.e., as hydrates) or solvates with organic solvents such as, for example, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, acetic acid, ethyl acetate, ethanolamine, DMSO, or acetonitrile, of the compound of formula (I). All physical forms, including any amorphous or crystalline form (i.e., polymorph) of the compound of formula (I), are also encompassed within the scope of the present invention. It should be understood that such solvates and physical forms of pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compound of formula (I) are likewise encompassed by the present invention.

[0230] Furthermore, the compounds of formula (I) may exist in the form of different isomers, in particular stereoisomers (including, for example, geometric isomers (or cis / trans isomers), enantiomers and diastereomers) or tautomers (including, in particular, prototropic tautomers such as keto / enol tautomers or thione / thiol tautomers). All such isomers of the compounds of formula (I) are intended to be part of the present invention, either as mixtures or in pure or substantially pure form. With regard to stereoisomers, the present invention encompasses the isolated optical isomers of the compounds according to the invention and any mixtures thereof (including, in particular, racemic mixtures / racemates). Racemates can be resolved by physical methods such as fractional crystallization, separation or crystallization of diastereomeric derivatives, or separation by chiral column chromatography. The individual optical isomers can also be obtained from the racemate via salt formation with an optically active acid followed by crystallization. The present invention further encompasses any tautomers of the compounds of formula (I). It will be understood that some compounds may exhibit tautomerism. In such cases, the formulae provided herein explicitly depict only one of the possible tautomers. The formulae and chemical names provided herein are intended to encompass any tautomers of the corresponding compounds and are not limited to the specific tautomers depicted by the drawings or identified by the name of the compound.

[0231] The scope of the present invention also encompasses compounds of formula (I) in which one or more atoms are replaced by specific isotopes of the corresponding atoms. For example, the present invention encompasses compounds of formula (I) in which one or more hydrogen atoms (or, for example, all hydrogen atoms) are replaced by deuterium atoms (i.e., 2 H; also referred to as “D”). Thus, the present invention also encompasses compounds of formula (I) that are enriched in deuterium. Naturally occurring hydrogen consists of approximately 99.98 mol% hydrogen-1 ( 1 H) and approximately 0.0156 mol% deuterium ( 2is an isotope mixture containing H or D). The deuterium content at one or more hydrogen positions in the compound of formula (I) can be increased using deuteration techniques known in the art. For example, the compound of formula (I) or the reactants or precursors used in the synthesis of the compound of formula (I) can be subjected to an H / D exchange reaction using, for example, heavy water (D2O). Further suitable deuteration techniques are described in Atzrodt J et al., Bioorg Med Chem, 20(18), 5658 - 5667, 2012; William JS et al., Journal of Labelled Compounds and Radiopharmaceuticals, 53(11 - 12), 635 - 644, 2010; Modvig A et al., J Org Chem, 79, 5861 - 5868, 2014. The deuterium content can be determined using, for example, mass spectrometry or NMR spectroscopy. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, the compound of formula (I) is preferably not enriched in deuterium. Thus, it is preferred that hydrogen atoms or 1 H hydrogen atoms that occur naturally in the compound of formula (I) are present.

[0232] The present invention also encompasses compounds of formula (I) in which one or more atoms are replaced by the positron-emitting isotopes of the corresponding atoms, such as 18 F, 11 C, 13 N, 15 O, 76 Br, 77 Br, 120 I and / or 124 I, etc. Such compounds can be used as tracers, trackers or imaging probes in positron emission tomography (PET). Thus, the present invention relates to (i) a compound of formula (I) in which one or more fluorine atoms (or, for example, all fluorine atoms) are 18 replaced by F atoms, (ii) a compound of formula (I) in which one or more carbon atoms (or, for example, all carbon atoms) are 11Compounds of formula (I) in which one or more carbon atoms (or, for example, all carbon atoms) are replaced by C atoms, (iii) one or more nitrogen atoms (or, for example, all nitrogen atoms) are 13 Compounds of formula (I) in which one or more nitrogen atoms (or, for example, all nitrogen atoms) are replaced by N atoms, (iv) one or more oxygen atoms (or, for example, all oxygen atoms) are 15 Compounds of formula (I) in which one or more oxygen atoms (or, for example, all oxygen atoms) are replaced by O atoms, (v) one or more bromine atoms (or, for example, all bromine atoms) are 76 Compounds of formula (I) in which one or more bromine atoms (or, for example, all bromine atoms) are replaced by Br atoms, (vi) one or more bromine atoms (or, for example, all bromine atoms) are 77 Compounds of formula (I) in which one or more bromine atoms (or, for example, all bromine atoms) are replaced by Br atoms, (vii) one or more iodine atoms (or, for example, all iodine atoms) are 120 Compounds of formula (I) in which one or more iodine atoms (or, for example, all iodine atoms) are replaced by I atoms, and (viii) one or more iodine atoms (or, for example, all iodine atoms) are 124 Compounds of formula (I) in which one or more iodine atoms (or, for example, all iodine atoms) are replaced by I atoms. Generally, it is preferred that none of the atoms in the compounds of formula (I) are replaced by a specific isotope.

The medicament / pharmaceutical composition may optionally contain one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, such as carriers, diluents, fillers, disintegrants, lubricants, binders, colorants, pigments, stabilizers, preservatives, antioxidants, and / or solubility enhancers.

[0234] The pharmaceutical composition may include one or more solubility enhancers, such as poly(ethylene glycol) having a molecular weight in the range of about 200 to about 5,000 Da (e.g., PEG200, PEG300, PEG400, or PEG600), ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerol, nonionic surfactants, tyloxapol, polysorbate 80, macrogol-15-hydroxystearate (e.g., Kolliphor® HS 15, CAS70142-34-6), phospholipids, lecithin, dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine, dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine, distearoyl phosphatidylcholine, cyclodextrins, α-cyclodextrin, β-cyclodextrin, γ-cyclodextrin, hydroxyethyl-β-cyclodextrin, hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin, hydroxyethyl-γ-cyclodextrin, hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin, dihydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin, sulfobutyl ether-β-cyclodextrin, sulfobutyl ether-γ-cyclodextrin, glucosyl-α-cyclodextrin, glucosyl-β-cyclodextrin, diglucosyl-β-cyclodextrin, maltosyl-α-cyclodextrin, maltosyl-β-cyclodextrin, maltosyl-γ-cyclodextrin, maltotriosyl-β-cyclodextrin, maltotriosyl-γ-cyclodextrin, dimaltosyl-β-cyclodextrin, methyl-β-cyclodextrin, carboxyalkyl thioether, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, vinyl acetate copolymer, vinyl pyrrolidone, sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate, or any combination thereof, etc.

Dosage forms for topical administration include creams, gels, ointments, plasters, patches and transdermal delivery systems.

[0237] The above pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, or any of the foregoing constructs, may be administered to a subject by any convenient route of administration including, but not limited to, oral (e.g., as tablets, capsules, or ingestible solutions), topical (e.g., transdermal, intranasal, ocular, buccal, and sublingual), parenteral (e.g., using injection or infusion techniques, e.g., injection, e.g., by subcutaneous, intradermal, intramuscular, intravenous, intraarterial, intracardiac, intrathecal, intraspinal, intracapsular, subcapsular, intraorbital, intraperitoneal, intratracheal, subepidermal, intraarticular, subarachnoid, or intrasternal injection, e.g., including depot, e.g., by subcutaneous or intramuscular implantation), pulmonary (e.g., by inhalation or insufflation therapy from the mouth or nose, e.g., using an aerosol), gastrointestinal, intrauterine, intraocular, subcutaneous, ophthalmic (including intravitreal or intracameral), rectal, or vaginal administration, whether systemically or locally to a desired site of action.

[0238] When the compound or pharmaceutical composition is administered parenterally, examples of such administration include administering the compound or pharmaceutical composition intravenously, intraarterially, intraperitoneally, intrathecally, intraventricularly, intraurethrally, intrasternal, intracardially, intracranially, intramuscularly or subcutaneously, and / or by using infusion techniques. For parenteral administration, the compound is most preferably used in the form of a sterile aqueous solution which may contain other substances, e.g., salts or glucose sufficient to render the solution isotonic with blood. The aqueous solution should preferably be buffered (preferably to a pH of from 3 to 9) if necessary. The preparation of suitable parenteral formulations under aseptic conditions is readily achieved by standard pharmaceutical techniques well known to those skilled in the art.

[0239] The compound or pharmaceutical composition may also be administered orally in the form of tablets, capsules, ovules, elixirs, solutions or suspensions which may contain flavoring or coloring agents for immediate, delayed, modified, sustained, pulsed or controlled release applications.

[0240] The tablets may contain excipients such as microcrystalline cellulose, lactose, sodium citrate, calcium carbonate, calcium hydrogen phosphate and glycine, starch (preferably corn, potato or tapioca starch), disintegrants such as sodium starch glycolate, croscarmellose sodium and certain complex silicates, and granulating binders such as polyvinylpyrrolidone, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (HPMC), hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), sucrose, gelatin and acacia. Additionally, lubricants such as magnesium stearate, stearic acid, glyceryl behenate and talc may be included. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be used as fillers in gelatin capsules. Preferred excipients in this regard include lactose, starch, cellulose, or high molecular weight polyethylene glycol. For aqueous suspensions and / or elixirs, the drug may be combined with various sweetening or flavoring agents, coloring substances or dyes, emulsifying and / or suspending agents and diluents such as water, ethanol, propylene glycol and glycerin, and combinations thereof.

[0241] For oral administration, the compound or pharmaceutical composition is preferably administered by oral ingestion, particularly by swallowing. Thus, the compound or pharmaceutical composition can be administered to pass through the mouth and into the gastrointestinal tract, which can also be referred to as "oral-gastrointestinal" administration.

[0242] Alternatively, the compound or pharmaceutical composition can be administered in the form of a suppository or pessary, or may be applied topically in the form of a gel, hydrogel, lotion, solution, cream, ointment or spray. The compounds of the present invention may also be administered to the skin or transdermally, for example, by the use of a skin patch.

[0243] The compound or pharmaceutical composition may also be administered by a sustained release system. Suitable examples of sustained release compositions include semipermeable polymer matrices in the form of shaped articles such as films or microcapsules. Sustained release matrices include, for example, polylactide, copolymers of L-glutamic acid and gamma-ethyl-L-glutamate, poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate), ethylene vinyl acetate, or poly-D-(-)-3-hydroxybutyric acid. Sustained release pharmaceutical compositions also include compounds encapsulated in liposomes. Accordingly, the present invention also relates to liposomes containing the compounds of the present invention.

[0244] The compound or pharmaceutical composition may also be administered by the pulmonary, rectal, or ocular routes. For ophthalmic use, they may be formulated as a micronized suspension in isotonic, pH-adjusted, sterile physiological saline or, preferably, as a solution in isotonic, pH-adjusted, sterile physiological saline, optionally in combination with a preservative such as benzalkonium chloride. Alternatively, they may be formulated as an ointment such as petrolatum.

[0245] It is also contemplated to prepare dry powder formulations of the compounds of formula (I) for pulmonary administration, particularly inhalation. Such dry powder agents may be prepared by spray drying under conditions that result in a substantially amorphous glassy or substantially crystalline bioactive powder. Accordingly, dry powder agents of the compounds of the present invention can be made according to an emulsification / spray drying process.

[0246] For topical application to the skin, the compound or pharmaceutical composition can be formulated as a suitable ointment containing the active compound suspended or dissolved in a mixture with one or more of, for example, the following: mineral oil, liquid petrolatum, white petrolatum, propylene glycol, emulsifying wax, and water. Alternatively, they can be formulated as a suitable lotion or cream containing the active compound suspended or dissolved in a mixture with one or more of, for example, the following: mineral oil, sorbitan monostearate, polyethylene glycol, liquid paraffin, polysorbate 60, cetyl ester wax, 2-octyldodecanol, benzyl alcohol, and water.

[0247] Accordingly, the present invention relates to the compounds or pharmaceutical compositions provided herein, and the corresponding compounds or pharmaceutical compositions are administered by any one of the following routes: oral route; topical routes, such as transdermal, intranasal, ocular, buccal, or sublingual routes; parenteral routes using injection techniques or infusion techniques, such as subcutaneous, intradermal, intramuscular, intravenous, intraarterial, intracardiac, intrathecal, intraspinal, intracapsular, subcapsular, intraorbital, intraperitoneal, intratracheal, subepidermal, intraarticular, subarachnoid, intrasternal, intraventricular, intraurethral, or intracranial routes; pulmonary routes, such as by inhalation or insufflation therapy; gastrointestinal routes; intrauterine routes; intraocular routes; subcutaneous routes; ophthalmic routes, such as intravitreal or intracameral routes; rectal routes; or vaginal routes. Preferred routes of administration are oral administration or parenteral administration. For each of the compounds or pharmaceutical compositions provided herein, it is particularly preferred that each compound or pharmaceutical composition is administered orally (especially by oral ingestion).

[0248] Typically, a physician will determine the actual dosage most suitable for an individual subject. The specific dosage level and dosing frequency for any particular individual subject may vary and depend on a variety of factors including the activity of the specific compound used, the metabolic stability and duration of action of that compound, age, weight, general health, sex, diet, mode and time of administration, rate of excretion, drug combination, severity of the particular condition, and the individual subject receiving the therapy.

[0249] The compounds according to the invention are proposed for oral administration to humans (of approximately 70 kg body weight), but non-limiting dosages may be from 0.05 to 2000 mg, preferably from 0.1 mg to 1000 mg of active ingredient per unit dose. The unit dose may be administered, for example, 1 to 3 times per day. The unit dose may also be administered 1 to 7 times per week, for example, at a frequency of less than once per day. It will be appreciated that the dosage may need to be varied routinely according to the age and weight of the patient / subject and the severity of the condition being treated. The exact dosage and further the route of administration will ultimately be at the discretion of the attending physician or veterinarian.

[0250] The pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, or any of the foregoing constructs, may be administered in monotherapy (e.g., without co-administering any further therapeutic agent or without co-administering any further therapeutic agent for the same disease treated or prevented by the compound of formula (I)). However, the pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, or any of the foregoing constructs, may also be administered in combination with one or more further therapeutic agents. When a compound of formula (I) is used in combination with a second therapeutic agent that is active against the same disease or condition, the dosage of each compound may be different from the dosage when the corresponding compound is used alone, in particular, lower dosages of each compound may be used. The combination of a compound of formula (I) with one or more further therapeutic agents may include simultaneous / concurrent administration (either as a single pharmaceutical formulation or as separate pharmaceutical formulations) of the compound of formula (I) and the further therapeutic agent(s), or sequential / separate administration of the compound of formula (I) and the further therapeutic agent(s). When the administration is sequential, either the compound of formula (I) according to the invention or one or more of the further therapeutic agents may be administered first. When the administration is concurrent, the one or more further therapeutic agents may be included in the same pharmaceutical formulation as the compound of formula (I), or they may be administered as two or more different (separate) pharmaceutical formulations.
