Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] Field The present disclosure provides heterobifunctional small molecules as proteolytic agents for nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2). Nrf2 proteolytic agents are useful for the treatment of cancer and other diseases.
Background Art
[0002] Background The proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) strategy utilizes proteasome-mediated proteolysis to induce target protein degradation. Raina et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2016, 113, 7124-7129 (Non-Patent Document 1); Zhou et al., J. Med. Chem. 2018, 61, 462-481 (Non-Patent Document 2). A PROTAC molecule is a heterobifunctional small molecule containing one ligand that binds to a target protein of interest, linked together by a chemical linker, and another ligand for the E3 ligase system. Bondeson, D. P.; Crews, C. M. Targeted Protein Degradation by Small Molecules. Annu Rev Pharmacol Toxicol. 2017, 57, 107-123 (Non-Patent Document 3).
[0003] Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a transcription factor that regulates the expression of antioxidant genes. Both Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) mutations and Nrf2 mutations contribute to the activation of Nrf2 in cancer cells. Nrf2 activity is associated with, for example, poor prognosis in NSCLC. Zhao et al., Front. Oncol. 10:578315. doi: 10.3389 / fonc.2020.578315 (Non-Patent Document 4).
[0004] The Nrf2 pathway also plays a role in neurodegeneration, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, kidney diseases, and liver diseases. Nrf2 levels vary widely depending on physiological, temporal, and pathological conditions. Dodson et al., Annu Rev Pharmacol Toxicol 59:555-575 (2019) (Non-Patent Document 5). Nrf2 activation promotes metabolic reprogramming. Inhibition or degradation of Nrf2 can alter metabolic processes and thus suppress tumor growth, prevent metastasis, and / or enhance sensitivity to chemotherapy. There is a need in the art for Nrf2 degraders for treating cancer and other diseases.

In light of the above, any reference herein to a compound of the present disclosure is intended to include the actual compound, as well as its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, or solvates.
[0093] The present disclosure also encompasses the preparation and use of solvates of the compounds of the present disclosure. Solvates generally do not significantly modify the biological activity or toxicity of the compound and can thus function as pharmacologically equivalent substances. As used herein, the term "solvate" refers to a combination, physical association, and / or solvation of a compound of the present disclosure with solvent molecules, e.g., a bis-solvate, a mono-solvate, or a hemisolvate in which the ratio of solvent molecules to the compound of the present disclosure is about 2:1, about 1:1, or about 1:2, respectively. This physical association encompasses various degrees of ionic and covalent bonding, including hydrogen bonding. In certain cases, e.g., when one or more solvent molecules are incorporated into the crystal lattice of a crystalline solid, the solvate can be isolated. Thus, "solvate" encompasses both solution-phase solvates and isolable solvates. The compounds of the present disclosure can exist in solvated forms with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, methanol, and ethanol, and the present disclosure is intended to include both solvated and non-solvated forms of the compounds of the present disclosure. One type of solvate is a hydrate. "Hydrate" relates to a specific subgroup of solvates in which the solvent molecule is water. Solvates can generally function as pharmacologically equivalent substances. The preparation of solvates is known in the art. See, for example, M. Caira et al, J. Pharmaceut. Sci., 93(3):601-611 (2004), which describes the preparation of solvates of fluconazole with ethyl acetate and fluconazole with water. Similar preparations of solvates, hemisolvates, hydrates, etc. are described in E.C. van Tonder et al., AAPS Pharm. Sci. Tech., 5(1):Article 12 (2004), and A.L. Bingham et al., Chem. Commun. 603-604 (2001). The usual non-limiting process for preparing a solvate would include dissolving the compound of the present disclosure in a desired solvent (organic solvent, water, or a mixture thereof) at a temperature above 20°C to about 25°C, then cooling the solution at a rate sufficient to form crystals, and isolating the crystals by known methods such as filtration.To confirm the presence of solvent in the crystals of the solvate, analytical techniques such as infrared spectroscopy can be used.

[0112] The methods of the present disclosure can be achieved by administering the compounds of the present disclosure as a pure compound or as a pharmaceutical composition. Administration of the pharmaceutical composition or pure compound of the present disclosure can be carried out during or after the onset of a disease or condition of interest. Typically, the pharmaceutical composition is sterile and does not contain toxic, carcinogenic, or mutagenic compounds that would cause adverse reactions when administered.
[0113] In one aspect, the compounds of the present disclosure are administered as a single agent to treat a disease or condition in which degradation of the Nrf2 protein provides a benefit. In another aspect, the compounds of the present disclosure are administered in combination with a second therapeutic agent useful in the treatment of a disease or condition in which degradation of the Nrf2 protein provides a benefit. The second therapeutic agent is different from the compounds of the present disclosure. To achieve the desired effect, the compounds of the present disclosure and the second therapeutic agent can be administered simultaneously or sequentially. Further, the compounds of the present disclosure and the second therapeutic agent can be administered as a single pharmaceutical composition or as two separate pharmaceutical compositions.
[0114] The second therapeutic agent is administered in an amount that provides its desired therapeutic effect. The effective dosage ranges for each second therapeutic agent are known in the art, and the second therapeutic agent is administered to an individual in need thereof within such established ranges.
[0115] The compounds of the present disclosure and the second therapeutic agent can be administered together as one unit dose or separately as multiple unit doses, in the latter case, the compounds of the present disclosure being administered before or after the second therapeutic agent. One or more doses of the compounds of the present disclosure and / or one or more doses of the second therapeutic agent can be administered. Thus, the compounds of the present disclosure can be used in combination with one or more second therapeutic agents, such as, but not limited to, anti-cancer agents.
[0116] In the method of the present disclosure, a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the present disclosure, typically formulated according to pharmaceutical practice, is administered to a subject in need thereof, such as a human cancer patient. Whether such treatment is indicated depends on the individual case and involves a medical assessment (diagnosis) taking into account the signs, symptoms, and / or dysfunctions present, the risk of developing specific signs, symptoms, and / or dysfunctions, and other factors.

Parenteral administration can be achieved using needles and syringes or using high-pressure techniques.
[0118] Pharmaceutical compositions include those in which a compound of the present disclosure is administered in an amount effective to achieve its intended purpose. The exact formulation, route of administration, and dosage will be determined by the individual physician in view of the diagnosed condition or disease. Dosage and intervals can be adjusted individually to provide a level of the compound of the present disclosure sufficient to maintain a therapeutic effect.
[0119] The toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of the compounds of the present disclosure can be determined by standard pharmaceutical techniques in cell cultures or experimental animals, for example, to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of the compound, which is defined as the highest tolerated dose of a chemical substance that can be administered to animals without causing significant toxicity or mortality. The dosage ratio between the maximum tolerated dose and the therapeutic effect (e.g., inhibition of tumor growth) is the therapeutic index. Dosages can vary within this range depending on the dosage form utilized and the route of administration employed. Determination of a therapeutically effective amount is well within the capabilities of those skilled in the art, particularly in view of the detailed disclosure provided herein.
[0120] The therapeutically effective amount of the compounds of the present disclosure required for use in therapy will vary depending on the nature of the condition being treated, the length of time the activity is desired, as well as the age and condition of the patient, and will ultimately be determined by the attending physician. For example, the dosage and interval can be adjusted individually to provide a plasma level of the Nrf2 proteasome inhibitor sufficient to maintain the desired therapeutic effect. The desired dosage may conveniently be administered as a single dose or as multiple divided doses at appropriate intervals, for example, once, twice, three times, four times, or more times per day. Multiple dosing is often desirable or necessary. For example, the compounds of the present disclosure can be delivered once daily for four days (q4d×4) at four-day intervals; four times (q3d×4) at three-day intervals; once daily delivery at five-day intervals (qd×5); once weekly for three weeks (qwk3); a frequency of once daily for five days, a two-day break, once daily again for five days (5 / 2 / 5); or any dosing schedule determined to be appropriate for the situation.

[0221] IV. Definitions The term “disease or condition in which degradation of Nrf2 provides a benefit” refers to a disease or condition in which Nrf2 is important or required, for example, for the development, progression, or appearance of the disease or condition, or a disease or condition known to be treated by an Nrf2 inhibitor or degrader. Examples of such diseases or conditions include, but are not limited to, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, kidney diseases, or liver diseases. Dodson et al., Annu Rev Pharmacol Toxicol 59:555-575 (2019). One of ordinary skill in the art can readily determine whether a particular compound treats a disease or condition mediated by an Nrf2 degrader for any particular cell type, for example, by an assay conveniently available for evaluating the activity of the particular compound.
[0222] The term “Nrf2 degrader” refers to a heterobifunctional small molecule that degrades the Nrf2 protein. An Nrf2 degrader contains a first ligand that binds to the Nrf2 protein, a second ligand for an E3 ligase system, and a chemical linker that connects the first ligand and the second ligand. Representative compounds of the present disclosure that degrade the Nrf2 protein are disclosed in Table 1.
[0223] The term "second therapeutic agent" refers to a therapeutic agent that is different from the compounds of the present disclosure and is known to treat the disease or condition of interest. For example, if cancer is the disease or condition of interest, the second therapeutic agent can be, for example, a known chemotherapeutic agent such as taxol, or radiation.
[0224] The term "disease" or "condition" generally refers to a disorder and / or abnormality that is considered to be a pathological condition or function and can manifest in the form of specific signs, symptoms, and / or dysfunctions. The compounds of the present disclosure are Nrf2 degraders and can be used in treating or preventing diseases and conditions in which degradation of Nrf2 provides a benefit.
[0225] As used herein, the terms "treating," "treatment," "treat," etc. refer to removing, reducing, or alleviating a disease or condition and / or symptoms associated therewith. Treating a disease or condition does not necessarily mean completely eliminating the disease, condition, or associated symptoms, but it does not require that either. The term "treating" and synonyms thereof contemplate administering a therapeutically effective amount of the compounds of the present disclosure to a subject in need of such treatment. For example, treatment can be tailored to the symptoms to suppress them. Treatment can be carried out for a short period, adapted for an intermediate period, or, for example, be long-term treatment within the scope of maintenance therapy.
[0226] As used herein, the terms "prevent", "preventing", and "prevention" refer to a method of preventing the onset of a disease or condition and / or its attendant symptoms, or of preventing a subject from contracting a disease. As used herein, the terms "prevent", "preventing", and "prevention" also include delaying the onset of a disease and / or its attendant symptoms, and reducing the risk that a subject will contract a disease. The terms "prevent", "preventing", and "prevention" can include "preventive treatment", which refers to reducing the likelihood of recurrence of a disease or condition, or reducing the likelihood of reappearance of a disease or condition, in a subject who does not have the disease or condition but is at risk of or is likely to experience recurrence of the disease or condition.
[0227] As used herein, the term "therapeutically effective amount" or "effective amount" refers to an amount of an active ingredient that is sufficient to effectively deliver an active ingredient for the treatment of a condition or disease of interest to a subject in need thereof when administered by the methods of the present disclosure. In the case of cancer or other proliferative disorders, a therapeutically effective amount of an agent reduces unwanted cell proliferation (i.e., delays or stops it to some extent); reduces the number of cancer cells; reduces the size of a tumor; inhibits cancer cell infiltration into peripheral organs (i.e., delays or stops it to some extent); inhibits tumor metastasis (i.e., delays or stops it to some extent); inhibits tumor growth to some extent; and / or can alleviate one or more symptoms associated with cancer to some extent. A compound or composition administered can be cytostatic and / or cytotoxic to the extent that it prevents and / or kills the growth of existing cancer cells.
[0228] The term "container" means any receptacle and closure suitable for the storage, transport, dispensing, and / or handling of a drug.
[0229] The term "package insert" means the information attached to a drug, which shows a description of how to administer the drug, along with the safety and efficacy data necessary to enable physicians, pharmacists, and patients to make informed decisions regarding the use of the drug. Generally, the package insert is regarded as the "label" for the drug.
[0230] The terms "co-administered", "administered in combination", "simultaneously administered", and like terms mean that two or more agents are administered to a subject in the same period. "In the same period" means that the agents are administered simultaneously or sequentially in any order at different times. However, if not administered simultaneously, these agents are intended to be administered to the subject sequentially and at sufficiently short time intervals so as to obtain the desired therapeutic effect and act in concert. For example, the compounds of the present disclosure can be administered simultaneously with a second therapeutic agent or sequentially in any order at different times from the second therapeutic agent. The compounds of the present disclosure and the second therapeutic agent can be administered separately in any suitable form and by any suitable route. When the compounds of the present disclosure and the second therapeutic agent are not co-administered, they are understood to be administrable to a subject in need thereof in any order. For example, the administration of the compounds of the present disclosure to a subject in need thereof can be performed before (e.g., 5 minutes before, 15 minutes before, 30 minutes before, 45 minutes before, 1 hour before, 2 hours before, 4 hours before, 6 hours before, 12 hours before, 24 hours before, 48 hours before, 72 hours before, 96 hours before, 1 week before, 2 weeks before, 3 weeks before, 4 weeks before, 5 weeks before, 6 weeks before, 8 weeks before, or 12 weeks before), simultaneously with, or after (e.g., 5 minutes after, 15 minutes after, 30 minutes after, 45 minutes after, 1 hour after, 2 hours after, 4 hours after, 6 hours after, 12 hours after, 24 hours after, 48 hours after, 72 hours after, 96 hours after, 1 week after, 2 weeks after, 3 weeks after, 4 weeks after, 5 weeks after, 6 weeks after, 8 weeks after, or 12 weeks after) the implementation of the treatment modality (e.g., radiation therapy) of the second therapeutic agent.

In another aspect, provided is a composition in which some of the atoms at a position within a compound of the present disclosure are replaced, i.e., the compound of the present disclosure is enriched at positions within atoms having different atomic masses or mass numbers. The isotopically labeled compounds of the present disclosure can be prepared using methods known in the art.
[0288] As described above, the compounds of the present disclosure contain one or more asymmetric carbon atoms and, as a result, can give rise to enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomeric forms. The present disclosure encompasses the use of all such possible forms, including their racemic and resolved forms and mixtures thereof. Individual enantiomers can be resolved according to methods known in the art in view of the present disclosure. When the compounds described herein contain an olefinic double bond or other geometrically asymmetric center and are not otherwise specified, the compounds described herein are intended to include both E and Z geometric isomers. All tautomers are also encompassed by the present disclosure. All conformational isomers, i.e., stereoisomers generated by rotation around a σ bond, are also encompassed by the present disclosure.
[0289] As used herein, the term "stereoisomer" is a general term for all isomers of individual molecules that differ only in the orientation of their atoms in space. This term includes enantiomers and isomers (diastereomers) of compounds having two or more chiral centers that are not mirror images of each other.
[0290] The term "chiral center" or "asymmetric carbon atom" refers to a carbon atom to which four different groups are attached.
[0291] The terms "enantiomer" and "enantiomeric" refer to molecules that cannot be superimposed on their mirror images and are therefore optically active, where the enantiomer rotates the plane of polarization in one direction and its mirror image compound rotates the plane of polarization in the opposite direction.
[0292] The term "racemic" refers to a mixture of equal amounts of enantiomers, and the mixture is optically inactive. In one aspect, the compounds of the present disclosure are racemic.
[0293] The term "absolute configuration" refers to the spatial arrangement of the atoms of a chiral molecular entity (or group) and its stereochemical description, such as R or S.
[0294] The terms and nomenclature rules related to stereochemistry used herein are intended to be consistent with those described in Pure & Appl. Chem 68:2193 (1996) unless otherwise indicated.
[0295] The term "enantiomeric excess" or "ee" refers to a measure of how much more of one enantiomer is present compared to the other. In a mixture of R and S enantiomers, the percent enantiomeric excess is defined as │R - S│*100, where R and S are the respective molar or weight fractions of the enantiomers in a mixture where R + S = 1. Based on the findings regarding the optical rotation of chiral substances, the percent enantiomeric excess is defined as ([α] obs / [α] max )*100, where [α] obs is the optical rotation of the enantiomer mixture and [α] max is the optical rotation of the pure enantiomer. The determination of enantiomeric excess can be achieved using various analytical techniques including NMR spectroscopy, chiral column chromatography, or polarimetry.
[0296] As used herein, the term "about" includes the recited number ± 10%. Thus, "about 10" means 9 to 11.
