Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to novel pyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidine compounds as inhibitors of Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS). The present invention also relates to the preparation of the compounds, intermediates used in the preparation, compositions containing the compounds, and the use of the compounds to treat KRAS-related diseases, such as cancer. [Background technology]

[0002] KRAS, HRAS (Harvey rat sarcoma virus), and NRAS (neuroblastoma RAS viral oncogene homolog) belong to a group of GTPases crucial for cell survival and proliferation through complex signaling cascades. Mutant RAS genes are found in approximately 30% of all cancers (Hyun et al., 2021 Int. J. Mol. Sci. 22(22), 12142). KRAS is the most frequently mutated RAS isoform in cancer cells (up to 85%), leading to the development of cancers including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), colorectal cancer, and pancreatic cancer, which represent a significant unmet medical need for affected patients, both individually and collectively. KRAS mutations are prevalent in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Mutations in KRAS have been observed in 30% of cases of NSCLC, the predominant form of lung cancer (80%). KRAS mutations found in NSCLC include G12C in 39%, G12V in 18-21%, and G12D in 17-18%. KRAS mutations occur in 35-45% of colon cancers and lead to drug resistance.

[0003] KRAS inhibitors have been sought for decades, with recent advances seeing the approval of sotorasib and subsequent KRAS G12C-targeting compounds in clinical trials (Palmer et al., 2021 NPJ Precision Oncology, 5, 98). Sotorasib specifically targets KRAS mutations through covalent modification of the mutant cysteine at position 12. Therefore, sotorasib and other currently known KRAS inhibitors that rely on the same mechanism of action may have a narrow therapeutic window and limited use when considering other major KRAS mutations, such as G12V and G12D. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] Therefore, there remains a need for new KRAS inhibitors that can be used to treat a broader range of cancers. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] The present invention provides, in part, compounds of Formula (I) to Formula (VII), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The compounds of the present invention can inhibit the activity of all of the KRAS G12C, KRAS G12D, and KRAS G12V receptors and may be useful in the treatment, prevention, suppression, and amelioration of diseases, such as cancers, disorders, and conditions mediated by any of the KRAS G12C, KRAS G12D, and KRAS G12V receptors, or a combination thereof. Pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds or salts of the present invention, alone or in combination with an additional anti-cancer therapeutic agent, are also provided. The present invention also provides, in part, methods for preparing such compounds, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and compositions of the present invention, as well as methods of using the foregoing.

[0146] "Compounds of the invention" include compounds of formula (I) and novel intermediates used in their preparation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that compounds of the invention include conformational isomers (e.g., cis and trans isomers) and all optical isomers (e.g., enantiomers and diastereoisomers), if they exist, as well as racemates, diastereoisomers, and other mixtures of such isomers, and tautomers thereof. Those skilled in the art will also recognize that compounds of the invention include solvates, hydrates, isomorphs, polymorphs, esters, salt forms, prodrugs, and isotopically labeled versions thereof, if they may be formed.

[0147] As used herein, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" include plural references unless otherwise indicated. For example, "a" substituent includes one or more substituents.

[0148] As used herein, the term "about," when used to modify a parameter defined by a numerical value (e.g., a 5 mg dose), means that the parameter may vary 10% above or below the numerical value stated for that parameter. For example, a dose of about 5 mg means 5 mg ± 10%, i.e., it may vary between 4.5 mg and 5.5 mg.

[0149] When substituents are described as being "independently selected" from a group, each substituent is selected independently of the others. Thus, each substituent can be the same or different from the other substituents.

Unless otherwise specified, the total number of substituents that may be present is equal to the number of H atoms present on the unsubstituted form of the group being described. When an optional substituent is attached through a double bond, such as an oxo (=O) substituent, the group occupies two available valencies, and thus the total number of other substituents included is reduced by two. When optional substituents are independently selected from a list of alternatives, the selected groups may be the same or different. It will be understood that throughout this disclosure, the number and nature of optional substituents will be limited to the extent that such substitution makes chemical sense to one of ordinary skill in the art.

[0174] In addition, compounds of formula (I) may include other salts of such compounds, which are not necessarily pharmaceutically acceptable salts, but which may be useful as intermediates for one or more of the following: 1) preparing compounds of formula (I); 2) purifying compounds of formula (I); 3) separating enantiomers of compounds of formula (I); or 4) separating diastereoisomers of compounds of formula (I).

[0175] Suitable acid addition salts are formed from acids which form non-toxic salts. Examples include, but are not limited to, acetate, adipate, aspartate, benzoate, besylate, bicarbonate / carbonate, hydrogensulfate / sulfate, borate, camsylate, citrate, cyclamate, edisylate, esylate, formate, fumarate, gluceptate, gluconate, glucuronate, hexafluorophosphate, hybenzate, hydrochloride / chloride, hydrobromide / bromide, hydroiodide / iodide, isethionate, These include lactate, malate, maleate, malonate, mesylate, methylsulfate, naphthylate, 2-napsylate, nicotinate, nitrate, orotate, oxalate, palmitate, pamoate, phosphate / hydrogenphosphate / dihydrogenphosphate, pyroglutamate, saccharate, stearate, succinate, tannate, tartrate, tosylate, trifluoroacetate, 1,5-naphthalenedisulfonate and xinofoate.

[0178] For a review of suitable salts, see Paulekun, GS et al., Trends in Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient Salt Selection Based on Analysis of the Orange Book Database, J. Med. Chem. 2007;50(26), 6665-6672.

[0179] Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of the present invention can be prepared by methods well known to those skilled in the art, including, but not limited to, the following procedures: (i) by reacting a compound of the present invention with a desired acid or base; (ii) by removing an acid- or base-labile protecting group from a suitable precursor of a compound of the invention, or by ring-opening a suitable cyclic precursor, e.g., a lactone or lactam, with a desired acid or base; or (iii) by converting one salt of a compound of the invention into another salt, which can be achieved by reaction with the appropriate acid or base, or by using suitable ion exchange procedures.

[0180] These procedures are typically carried out in solution, and the resulting salt may precipitate and be collected by filtration or may be recovered by evaporation of the solvent.

[0181] solvate The compound of the present invention and its pharmaceutically acceptable salt can exist in non-solvated and solvated form.The term "solvate" is used herein to describe the molecular complex that comprises the compound of the present invention or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable solvent molecules, for example, ethanol.The term "hydrate" is used when the solvent is water.

[0182] In addition, compounds of formula (I) may include other solvates of such compounds, which are not necessarily pharmaceutically acceptable solvates, and may be useful as intermediates for one or more of the following: 1) preparing compounds of formula (I); 2) purifying compounds of formula (I); 3) separating enantiomers of compounds of formula (I); or 4) separating diastereoisomers of compounds of formula (I).

[0183] The currently accepted classification system for organic hydrates is one that defines isolated site, channel, or metal ion coordinated hydrates. See Polymorphism in Pharmaceutical Solids by KR Morris (HGBrittain, ed., Marcel Dekker, 1995). Isolated site hydrates are hydrates in which the water molecules are isolated from direct contact with each other by intervening organic molecules. In channel hydrates, the water molecules reside in lattice channels where they are adjacent to other water molecules. In metal ion coordinated hydrates, the water molecules are bound to the metal ion.

[0184] When the solvent or water is tightly bound, the complex may have a well-defined stoichiometry independent of humidity. However, when the solvent or water is weakly bound, as in channel solvates and hygroscopic compounds, the water / solvent content may be dependent on humidity and drying conditions. In such cases, non-stoichiometry becomes the norm.

[0185] Complex Multicomponent complexes (other than salts and solvates) in which a drug and at least one other component are present in stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amounts are also included within the scope of the present invention. This type of complex includes clathrates (drug-host inclusion complexes) and cocrystals. The latter are typically defined as crystalline complexes of neutral molecular components bound together by non-covalent interactions; for example, hydrogen-bonded complexes (cocrystals) can be formed with neutral molecules or with salts. Cocrystals can be prepared by melt crystallization, recrystallization from solvents, or physical grinding of the components together. See O. Almarsson and MJ Zaworotko (2004), Chem Commun, 17; 1889-1896. For a general review of multicomponent complexes, see Haleblian (August 1975), J Pharm Sci, 64(8), 1269-1288.

[0186] solid form The compounds of the present invention can exist in a continuum of solid states ranging from completely amorphous to completely crystalline. The term "amorphous" refers to a state in which the material lacks long-range order at the molecular level and can exhibit the physical properties of a solid or a liquid, depending on temperature. Typically, such materials do not exhibit a distinctive X-ray diffraction pattern and are more formally described as liquids, while exhibiting the properties of a solid. Upon heating, a change from solid to liquid properties occurs, which is typically characterized by a second-order change of state ("glass transition"). The term "crystalline" refers to a solid phase in which the material has an internal structure that is regularly ordered at the molecular level and exhibits a distinctive X-ray diffraction pattern with defined peaks. When such materials are heated sufficiently, they also exhibit the properties of a liquid, but the change from solid to liquid is typically characterized by a first-order phase change ("melting point").

[0187] The compounds of the present invention may also exist in a mesomorphic state (mesophase or liquid crystal) when subjected to suitable conditions. The mesomorphic state is intermediate between the true crystalline state and the true liquid state (either melt or solution) and consists of two-dimensional order at the molecular level. Mesomorphic states that arise as a result of a change in temperature are described as "thermotropic," while those that arise upon the addition of a second component, such as water or another solvent, are described as "lyotropic." Compounds that have the potential to form lyotropic mesophases are described as "amphiphilic," and may be ionic (-COO - Na + , -COO - K + , or -SO3 - Na + ) or non-ionic (-N - N + They consist of molecules with polar head groups (e.g., (CH3)3). For more information, see Crystals and the Polarizing Microscope, N.H. Hartshorne and A. Stuart, 4th ed. (Edward Arnold, 1970).

[0188] stereoisomer The compounds of the present invention may exist as two or more stereoisomers. The stereoisomers of the compounds may include cis and trans isomers (geometric isomers), optical isomers such as R and S enantiomers, diastereoisomers, rotational isomers, atropisomers, and conformational isomers. For example, compounds of the present invention containing one or more asymmetric carbon atoms may exist as two or more stereoisomers.

[0189] Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of the invention may also contain counterions that are optically active (e.g., d-lactate or l-lysine) or racemic (e.g., dl-tartrate or dl-arginine).

[0190] Cis / trans isomers can be separated by conventional techniques well known to those skilled in the art, such as chromatography and fractional crystallization.

[0191] Conventional techniques for preparing / isolating individual enantiomers include chiral synthesis from suitable optically pure precursors or resolution of the racemate (or racemate of a salt or derivative) using, for example, chiral high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Alternatively, the racemate (or racemic precursor) can be reacted with a suitable optically active compound, for example, an alcohol, or, if the compound of the present invention contains an acidic or basic moiety, with a base or acid such as 1-phenylethylamine or tartaric acid. The resulting mixture of diastereoisomers can be separated by chromatography, fractional crystallization, or both of the aforementioned techniques, and one or both of the diastereoisomers can be converted to the corresponding pure enantiomer by means well known to those skilled in the art. Chromatography can be used to obtain the chiral compounds of the present invention (and their chiral precursors) in enantiomerically enriched form, typically by HPLC concentration of the eluent to yield the enriched mixture. Chiral chromatography using subcritical and supercritical fluids can be used. Methods for chiral chromatography useful in some embodiments of the present invention are known in the art (see, e.g., Smith, Roger M., Loughborough University, Loughborough, UK; Chromatographic Science Series (1998), 75 (Supercritical Fluid Chromatography with Packed Columns), pp. 223-249 and references cited therein).

[0192] When any racemate crystallizes, two different types of crystals can occur. The first type is the racemate (true racemate) mentioned above, which produces a single uniform crystal form containing both enantiomers in equimolar amounts. The second type is a racemic mixture or conglomerate, which produces two crystalline forms in equimolar amounts, each containing a single enantiomer. Both crystalline forms present in a racemic mixture have the same physical properties, but they may have different physical properties compared to a true racemate. Racemic mixtures can be separated by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art. For example, see Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds by EL Eliel and SH Wilen (Wiley, New York, 1994).

[0193] Tautomerism Tautomeric isomerism ("tautomerism") can occur where structural isomers are interconvertible via a low energy barrier. This can take the form of proton tautomerism in compounds of the invention that contain, for example, imino / amino, keto / enol, or oxime / nitroso groups, lactam / lactim, or so-called valence tautomerism in compounds that contain aromatic moieties. It follows that a single compound may exhibit more than one type of isomerism.

[0194] For simplicity, the compounds of the invention are depicted herein in a single tautomeric form, however, it should be emphasized that all possible tautomeric forms are included within the scope of the invention.

[0195] Isotopes The present invention includes all pharmaceutically acceptable isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention in which one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having the same atomic number but an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number predominant in nature.

[0196] Examples of isotopes suitable for inclusion in the compounds of the invention include:2 H and 3 Hydrogen such as H 11 C. 13 C and 14 Carbon, such as C 36 chlorine such as Cl, 18 Fluorine such as F, 123 I and 125 Iodine, such as I 13 N and 15 Nitrogen such as N 15 O. 17 O and 18 Oxygen, such as O 32 Phosphorus, such as P, 35 Isotopes of sulfur such as S may be included.

[0197] Certain isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention, for example, those incorporating a radioactive isotope, are useful in drug or substrate tissue distribution studies. The radioactive isotope tritium, i.e., 3 H, and carbon-14, i.e., 14 C are particularly useful for this purpose given their ease of incorporation and rapid means of detection.

[0198] Deuterium, i.e., 2 Substitution with H may confer certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability.

[0199] Positron-emitting isotopes, e.g. 11 C. 18 F, 15 O and 13 Substitution at N may be useful in positron emission tomography (PET) studies to examine substrate receptor occupancy.

[0200] In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides deuterium-labeled (or deuterated) compounds and salts, wherein the formulas and variables of such compounds and salts are each and independently as described herein. "Deuterated" means that at least one of the atoms in the compound is deuterium, at an abundance higher than the natural abundance of deuterium (typically approximately 0.015%). Skilled practitioners recognize that in chemical compounds containing hydrogen atoms, the hydrogen atoms actually exist as a mixture of H and D, with approximately 0.015% being D. The concentration of deuterium incorporated in the deuterium-labeled compounds and salts of the present invention can be defined by the deuterium enrichment factor. It is understood that one or more deuterium atoms can be exchanged for hydrogen under physiological conditions.

[0201] In some embodiments, the deuterated compound is selected from any one of the compounds set forth in Table 2 shown in the Examples section.

[0202] In some embodiments, one or more hydrogen atoms at certain metabolic sites on the compounds of the invention are deuterated.

[0203] Isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention can generally be prepared by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art, or by processes analogous to those described in the accompanying Examples and Preparations, using an appropriate isotopically labeled reagent in place of the previously used non-labeled reagent.

[0205] Prodrug The compounds of the present invention can be administered in the form of prodrugs. Thus, certain derivatives of the compounds of the present invention, which may themselves have little or no pharmacological activity, can be converted into compounds of the present invention having the desired activity when administered into or onto the body, for example, by hydrolytic cleavage, particularly hydrolytic cleavage facilitated by esterase or peptidase enzymes. Such derivatives are referred to as "prodrugs." Further information on the use of prodrugs can be found in "The Expanding Role of Prodrugs in Contemporary Drug Design and Development," Nature Reviews Drug Discovery, 17, 559-587 (2018) (J.

Other functional groups, such as NH groups, can also undergo conjugation.

[0213] Pharmaceutical Composition In another embodiment, the invention comprises a pharmaceutical composition, for the purposes of which the compound per se or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof will simply be referred to as the compound of the invention.

[0214] A "pharmaceutical composition" refers to a mixture of one or more compounds of the invention, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates or prodrugs thereof, as the active ingredient, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

[0215] The term "excipient" is used herein to describe any ingredient other than the compound(s) of the invention. The choice of excipient will largely depend on factors such as the mode of administration, the effect of the excipient on solubility and stability, and the nature of the dosage form.

[0216] As used herein, "additives" include any and all physiologically compatible solvents, dispersion media, coatings, antibacterial and antifungal agents, isotonicity and absorption retarding agents, carriers, diluents, and the like. Examples of additives include one or more of water, saline, phosphate buffer solution, dextrose, glycerol, ethanol, and the like, as well as combinations thereof, and isotonicity adjusting agents, such as sugars, sodium chloride, or polyalcohols, such as mannitol or sorbitol, may also be included in the composition. Examples of additives also include various organic solvents (such as hydrates and solvates). If desired, pharmaceutical compositions may contain additional additives, such as flavoring agents, binders / binding agents, lubricants, disintegrants, sweeteners or flavoring agents, coloring agents or pigments, and the like. For example, for oral administration, tablets containing various additives such as citric acid can be used with various disintegrating agents such as starch, alginic acid, and certain complex silicates, and binders such as sucrose, gelatin, and gum arabic. Non-limiting examples of additives include calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, various sugars and starch types, cellulose derivatives, gelatin, vegetable oils, and polyethylene glycols. Additionally, lubricants such as magnesium stearate, sodium lauryl sulfate, and talc are often useful for tableting. Similar types of solid compositions can also be used in filled soft and hard gelatin capsules. Non-limiting examples of additives include lactose or milk sugar and high molecular weight polyethylene glycols. When aqueous suspensions or elixirs are desired for oral administration, the active compound therein can be combined with various sweeteners or flavoring agents, colorings or pigments, and, if desired, emulsifying or suspending agents, along with additional additives such as water, ethanol, propylene glycol, glycerin, or combinations thereof.

[0217] Examples of additives also include pharmaceutically acceptable substances which enhance the shelf life or effectiveness of the compound, such as wetting agents or minor amounts of auxiliary substances such as wetting or emulsifying agents, preservatives, or buffers.

[0218] The compositions of the present invention may be in a variety of forms, including, for example, liquid, semi-solid, and solid dosage forms, such as liquid solutions (e.g., injectable and infusible solutions), dispersions or suspensions, tablets, capsules, pills, powders, liposomes, and suppositories. The form depends on the intended mode of administration and therapeutic application.

[0219] Typical compositions are in the form of injectable or infusible solutions, such as compositions similar to those generally used for passive immunization of humans with antibodies. One mode of administration is parenteral (e.g., intravenous, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, intramuscular). In another embodiment, the compound is administered by intravenous infusion or injection. In yet another embodiment, the compound is administered by intramuscular or subcutaneous injection.

[0220] Oral administration of solid dosage forms can be provided in separate units, such as hard or soft capsules, pills, cachets, lozenges, or tablets, each containing a predetermined amount of at least one compound of the present invention.In another embodiment, oral administration can be in the form of powder or granules.In another embodiment, oral dosage forms are sublingual, such as lozenges.In such solid dosage forms, the compound of the present invention is usually combined with one or more adjuvants.Such capsules or tablets can contain controlled-release formulations.In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, dosage forms can contain buffering agents or be prepared with enteric coatings.

"Parenteral administration" includes, for example, subcutaneous injection, intravenous injection, intraperitoneal injection, intramuscular injection, intrasternal injection, and infusion. Injectable preparations (i.e., sterile injectable aqueous or oily suspensions) can be formulated according to known techniques using one or more suitable dispersing agents, wetting agents, or suspending agents.

[0223] In another embodiment, the present invention encompasses topical dosage forms. "Topical administration" includes, for example, dermal and transdermal administration, such as via transdermal patches or iontophoretic devices, intraocular administration, or intranasal or inhalation administration. Compositions for topical administration also include, for example, topical gels, sprays, ointments, and creams. Topical formulations may include compounds that enhance absorption or penetration of the active ingredient through the skin or other affected areas. When administering the compounds of the present invention via a transdermal device, administration will be achieved using a patch, either of the reservoir and porous membrane type or of the solid matrix variety. Typical formulations for this purpose include gels, hydrogels, lotions, solutions, creams, ointments, dusting powders, dressings, foams, films, skin patches, wafers, implants, sponges, fibers, bandages, and microemulsions.

Polymers such as cross-linked polyacrylic acid, polyvinyl alcohol, hyaluronic acid, cellulose-based polymers such as hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, or methylcellulose, or heteropolysaccharide polymers such as gellan gum, together with preservatives such as benzalkonium chloride, can also be incorporated. Such formulations can also be delivered by iontophoresis.

[0225] For intranasal administration, the compounds of the present invention are conveniently delivered in the form of a solution or suspension from a pump-type spray container that the patient squeezes or pumps, or as an aerosol spray delivery from a pressurized container or nebulizer using a suitable propellant. Formulations suitable for intranasal administration are typically administered in the form of a dry powder from a dry powder inhaler (either alone or as a mixture, for example, in a dry blend with lactose, or as mixed component particles, for example, mixed with a phospholipid such as phosphatidylcholine), or as an aerosol spray from a pressurized container, pump, spray, atomizer (preferably an atomizer that uses electrohydrodynamics to produce a fine mist), or nebulizer with or without a suitable propellant, such as 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane or 1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptafluoropropane. For intranasal use, the powder may contain a bioadhesive, for example, chitosan or cyclodextrin.

[0226] In another embodiment, the present invention includes a rectal dosage form. Such a rectal dosage form may be, for example, in the form of a suppository. Cocoa butter is a traditional suppository base, although various alternatives can be used where appropriate.

[0227] Other additives and modes of administration known in the pharmaceutical art can also be used.The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can be prepared by any of the well-known techniques of pharmacy, such as effective formulation and administration procedures.The above discussion of effective formulation and administration procedures is well known in the art and is described in standard textbooks.Drug formulations are discussed, for example, in Hoover, John E., Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pennsylvania, 1975; Liberman et al., eds., Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms, Marcel Decker, New York, NY, 1980; and Kibbe et al., eds., Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients (3rd Edition), American Pharmaceutical Association, Washington, 1999.

[0229] For oral administration, the compositions can be provided in the form of tablets or capsules containing 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0, 15.0, 25.0, 50.0, 75.0, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200, 250, 500, or 1000 milligrams of the active ingredient for symptomatic adjustment of dosage to the patient. Medicaments typically contain from about 0.01 mg to about 500 mg of the active ingredient, or in another embodiment, from about 1 mg to about 100 mg of the active ingredient. Intravenously, doses can range from about 0.01 to about 10 mg / kg / minute during a constant rate infusion.

[0230] Liposomes containing the compounds of the present invention can be prepared by methods known in the art (see, for example, Chang, HI; Yeh, MK; Clinical development of liposome-based drugs: formulation, characterization, and therapeutic efficacy; Int J Nanomedicine 2012;7;49-60). Particularly useful liposomes can be generated by the reverse-phase evaporation method using a lipid composition containing phosphatidylcholine, cholesterol, and PEG-derivatized phosphatidylethanolamine (PEG-PE). Liposomes are extruded through filters of defined pore size to yield liposomes with the desired diameter.

[0231] The compound of the present invention can also be encapsulated in microcapsules, such as hydroxymethylcellulose or gelatin microcapsules and poly-(methyl methacrylate) microcapsules, prepared by coacervation technology or by interfacial polymerization, respectively, in colloidal drug delivery systems (such as liposomes, albumin microspheres, microemulsions, nanoparticles and nanocapsules), or in macroemulsions.Such technology is disclosed in Remington, The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 20th edition, Mack Publishing (2000).

[0232] Sustained-release preparations can be used.The preferred example of sustained-release preparation comprises the semipermeable matrix of solid hydrophobic polymer containing the compound of the present invention, and this matrix is in the form of shaped article, for example, film or microcapsule.The example of sustained-release matrix comprises polyester, hydrogel (for example, poly(2-hydroxyethyl-methacrylate) or poly(vinyl alcohol)), polylactide, L-glutamic acid and 7-ethyl-L-glutamate copolymer, non-degradable ethylene-vinyl acetate, degradable lactic acid-glycolic acid copolymer (such as that used in leuprolide acetate for depot suspensions (injectable microspheres made of lactic acid-glycolic acid copolymer and leuprolide acetate), sucrose acetate isobutyrate and poly-D-(-)-3-hydroxybutyric acid.

[0233] Preparations used for intravenous administration must be sterile. This can be easily achieved, for example, by filtration through a sterile filtration membrane. The compound of the present invention is generally placed into a container with a sterile access port, for example, an intravenous solution bag or vial with a stopper that can be pierced by a hypodermic injection needle.

[0234] Suitable emulsions can be prepared using commercially available lipid emulsions, such as lipid emulsions containing soybean oil, lipid emulsions for intravenous administration (e.g., containing safflower oil, soybean oil, egg phospholipids, and glycerin in water), emulsions containing soybean oil and medium-chain triglycerides, and lipid emulsions of cottonseed oil. The active ingredient can be dissolved in a premixed emulsion composition, or alternatively, can be dissolved in an emulsion formed by mixing oil (e.g., soybean oil, safflower oil, cottonseed oil, sesame oil, corn oil, or almond oil) and phospholipids (e.g., egg phospholipids, soybean phospholipids, or soybean lecithin) with water. It will be appreciated that other ingredients, such as glycerol or glucose, can be added to adjust the tonicity of the emulsion. Suitable emulsions typically contain up to 20% oil, for example, between 5 and 20%. The lipid emulsion may contain lipid droplets between 0.1 and 1.0 μm, especially between 0.1 and 0.5 μm, and have a pH in the range of 5.5 to 8.0.

[0235] For example, an emulsion composition can be prepared by mixing a compound of the present invention with a lipid emulsion comprising soybean oil or its components (soybean oil, egg phospholipids, glycerol, and water).

[0236] Compositions for inhalation or insufflation include solutions and suspensions in pharmaceutically acceptable aqueous or organic solvents, or mixtures thereof, and powders.Liquid or solid compositions may contain suitable pharmaceutically acceptable additives as described above.In some embodiments, compositions are administered by oral or nasal respiratory route for local or systemic effect.Preferably, compositions in sterile pharmaceutically acceptable solvents can be nebulized by using gas.Nebulized solutions can be directly breathed from the nebulizing device, or the nebulizing device can be attached to a face mask, tent, or intermittent positive pressure respirator.Solution, suspension, or powder compositions can be administered, preferably orally or nasally, from a device that delivers the formulation in an appropriate manner.

[0237] A drug formulation intermediate (DPI) is a partially processed material that requires further processing steps before becoming a bulk formulation. The compounds of the present invention can be formulated into a drug formulation intermediate DPI that contains the active ingredient in a form with a higher free energy than the crystalline form. One reason for using a DPI is to improve oral absorption characteristics due to low solubility, slow dissolution, improved transport of substances through the mucin layer adjacent to epithelial cells, and in some cases, limitations due to biological barriers such as metabolism and transporters. Other reasons may include improved solid-state stability and downstream manufacturability. In one embodiment, the drug formulation intermediate contains a compound of the present invention isolated and stabilized in an amorphous state (e.g., an amorphous solid dispersion (ASD)). Many techniques are known in the art for producing ASDs that produce materials suitable for incorporation into bulk formulations, such as spray-dried dispersions (SDDs), melt extrudates (often referred to as HMEs), co-precipitates, amorphous drug nanoparticles, and nanoadsorbates. In one embodiment, the amorphous solid dispersion contains a compound of the present invention and a polymeric additive. Other additives, as well as the concentrations of said additives and compounds of the present invention, are well known in the art and are described in standard textbooks, see, for example, "Amorphous Solid Dispersions Theory and Practice" by Navnit Shah et al.

[0262] In another embodiment, such additional anti-cancer therapeutic agents include compounds that are immuno-oncology agents, including immunomodulatory agents.

[0263] In another embodiment, it is contemplated to combine with pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). PRRs are receptors that are expressed by cells of the immune system and recognize various molecules associated with pathogens and / or cell damage or death. PRRs are involved in both innate and adaptive immune responses. PRR agonists can be used to stimulate immune responses in subjects. There are several groups of PRR molecules, including toll-like receptors (TLRs), RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs), nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptors (NLRs), C-type lectin receptors (CLRs), and stimulator of interferon genes (STING) proteins.

[0264] The STING protein functions as both a cytosolic DNA sensor and an adaptor protein in type 1 interferon signal transduction. The terms "STING" and "stimulator of interferon genes" refer to any form of the STING protein, as well as variants, isoforms, and species homologs that maintain at least some of the activity of STING. Unless otherwise indicated, such as by specific reference to human STING, STING includes all mammalian species of native sequence STING, for example, human, monkey, and mouse STING are also known as -TMEM173.

[0265] As used herein, "STING agonist" refers to any molecule that, upon binding to STING, (1) stimulates or activates STING, (2) enhances, increases, promotes, induces, or prolongs the activity, function, or presence of STING, or (3) enhances, increases, promotes, or induces the expression of STING. STING agonists useful in any of the treatment methods, medicaments, and uses of the invention include, for example, nucleic acid ligands that bind to STING.

[0266] Examples of STING agonists useful in the treatment methods, medicaments, and uses of the invention include various immunostimulatory nucleic acids such as synthetic double-stranded DNA, synthetic cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs) such as cyclic di-GMP, cyclic-GMP-AMP (cGAMP), MK-1454, and ADU-S100 (MIW815), and small molecules such as WO2019027858, WO20180093964, WO2017175156, WO2017175147.

[0267] Therapeutic antibodies can have specificity for a variety of different antigens. For example, a therapeutic antibody can be directed against a tumor-associated antigen, and binding of the antibody to the antigen promotes the death of cells expressing the antigen. In another example, a therapeutic antibody can be directed against an antigen on an immune cell, and binding of the antibody prevents downregulation of the activity of the cells expressing the antigen (and thereby promotes the activity of the cells expressing the antigen). In some situations, a therapeutic antibody can function through multiple different mechanisms (e.g., it can both i) promote the death of cells expressing the antigen and ii) prevent the antigen from causing downregulation of the activity of immune cells in contact with the cells expressing the antigen).

[0268] In another embodiment, such additional anti-cancer therapeutics include antibodies that may be blocking or inhibitory at the target: CTLA-4 (including ipilimumab or tremelimumab), PD-1 or PD-L1 (including atezolizumab, avelumab, cemiplimab, durvalumab, nivolumab, sasanlimab, or pembrolizumab), LAG-3, TIM-3, or TIGIT.

[0269] In another embodiment, such additional anti-cancer therapeutic agents include antibodies that are agonists of 4-1BB, OX40, GITR, ICOS, or CD40.

[0270] In another embodiment, the anti-cancer treatment may be a CAR-T-cell therapy.

[0271] Examples of therapeutic antibodies include anti-OX40 antibodies, anti-4-1BB antibodies, anti-HER2 antibodies (including anti-HER2 antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs)), bispecific anti-CD47 / anti-PD-L1 antibodies, and bispecific anti-P-cadherin / anti-CD3 antibodies. Examples of cytotoxic drugs that can be incorporated into ADCs include anthracyclines, auristatins, dolastatins, combretastatins, duocarmycins, pyrrolobenzodiazepine dimers, indolino-benzodiazepine dimers, enediynes, geldanamycin, maytansine, puromycin, taxanes, vinca alkaloids, camptothecin, tubulysin, hemiasterlin, spliceostatin, pladienolide, and stereoisomers, isosteres, analogs, or derivatives thereof.

[0281] Synthesis method The compounds of the present invention can be synthesized by synthetic routes, including processes similar to those well known in the chemical arts, particularly in light of the description contained herein.Starting materials are generally available from commercial suppliers or can be prepared using methods well known to those skilled in the art.Many of the compounds used herein are related to or can be derived from compounds that have one or more scientific importance or commercial needs.Therefore, such compounds can be one or more of: 1) commercially available; 2) reported in literature; or 3) prepared by those skilled in the art from other commercially available materials using materials reported in literature.

[0282] For illustrative purposes, the reaction schemes shown below provide potential routes for synthesizing the compounds of the present invention, as well as key intermediates. For more detailed descriptions of the individual reaction steps, see the Examples section below. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other synthetic routes can be used to synthesize the compounds of the present invention. While specific starting materials and reagents are discussed below, other starting materials and reagents can be substituted to obtain one or more of a variety of derivatives or reaction conditions. In addition, many of the compounds prepared by the methods described below can be further modified in light of this disclosure using conventional chemistry well known to those skilled in the art.

[0283] Those skilled in the art will recognize that the experimental conditions depicted in the following schemes are illustrative of conditions suitable for carrying out the transformations shown, and that it may be necessary or desirable to vary the exact conditions used to prepare the compounds of the invention. Furthermore, it will be recognized that it may be necessary or desirable to carry out the transformations in a different order than that depicted in the schemes, or to modify one or more of the transformations to obtain the desired compounds of the invention.

[0284] In preparing the compounds of the present invention, it is noted that some of the preparative methods useful for preparing the compounds described herein may require protection of remote functional groups (e.g., primary amines, secondary amines, carboxyls, etc. in precursors of the compounds of the present invention). The need for such protection will vary depending on the nature of the remote functional group and the conditions of its preparation method. One skilled in the art will readily determine the need for such protection. The use of such protection / deprotection methods is also within the skill in the art. For a review of protecting groups and their uses, see March's Advanced Organic Chemistry: Reactions, Mechanisms, and Structure, 8th Edition.

[0285] For example, if a compound contains an amine or carboxylic acid functional group, such a functional group, if left unprotected, may interfere with reactions at other sites of the molecule. Therefore, such functional groups can be protected with a suitable protecting group (PG) that can be removed in a subsequent step. Suitable protecting groups for amine and carboxylic acid protection include protecting groups commonly used in peptide synthesis (such as N-tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc), benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz), and 9-fluorenylmethyleneoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) for amines and lower alkyl or benzyl esters for carboxylic acids), which are generally not chemically reactive under the reaction conditions described and can typically be removed without chemically altering other functional groups in the compounds of the present invention.

[0286] General Experimental Details 1 H and 19 F nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra were recorded on a Bruker XWIN-NMR (400 or 700 MHz) spectrometer. 1 H and 19 F resonances are reported in parts per million (ppm) downfield from tetramethylsilane. 1H NMR data are reported as multiplets (e.g., s, singlet; d, doublet; t, triplet; q, quartet; quint, quintet; dd, double doublet; dt, triple doublet; br s, broad singlet). For spectra obtained in CDCl3, DMSO-d6, and CD3OD, residual protons (7.27, 2.50, and 3.31 ppm, respectively) were used as internal references. All observed coupling constants, J, are reported in hertz (Hz). Exchangeable protons are not always observed.

[0287] Optical rotations were determined on a Jasco P-2000 or Rudolph Autopol IV polarimeter. All final compounds were purified to ≥95% purity unless otherwise specified. When the absolute stereochemistry was known, the (R,S) label was used. When the absolute stereochemistry was not known, the software-generated name was modified to include the prefixes (+)- and (-)- according to the optical rotation, and (R) to indicate the relative configuration. * / S * ) signs are used.

[0288] Mass spectra, MS (m / z), were recorded using either electrospray ionization (ESI) or atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI). Where relevant, and unless otherwise stated, the m / z data presented are isotopic. 19 F, 35 Cl, 79 Br and 127 It's about I.

[0294] As illustrated in Scheme I, 4,7-dichloro-8-fluoro-2-(methylthio)pyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidine (CAS#: 2454396-80-4) can be treated with an amine in the presence of an effective base (e.g., DIPEA) in a suitable solvent (e.g., DCM) to afford an adduct via a SnAr reaction at the 4-chloro position. A Suzuki reaction at the 7-chloro position incorporates a naphthol group using a palladium catalyst (e.g., CataCXium A Pd G3) and a base (e.g., KCO or KPO) in a suitable solvent, such as dioxane / water. Oxidation of the 2-thiomethyl group to a sulfone can be achieved using an oxidizing agent (e.g., mCPBA) in a solvent (e.g., DCM). The resulting sulfone group can be displaced with an alcohol nucleophile (e.g., ((2R,7aS)-2-fluorotetrahydro-1H-pyrrolidin-7a(5H)-yl)methanol, CAS#2097518-76-6) using a suitable base (e.g., LHMDS) in a suitable solvent (e.g., DCM). In some cases, the penultimate intermediate may contain a protecting group, which can be removed by an additional step in the synthetic sequence using conditions known in the art (March's Advanced Organic Chemistry: Reactions, Mechanisms, and Structure 8th Edition or Protecting Groups, 10 Georg Thieme Verlag, 1994). Compounds at each step can be purified by standard techniques, such as column chromatography, crystallization, reverse-phase HPLC, or SFC.

[0312] Preparation example: Preparation Example 1: (1R,5R,6R)-3-Azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-6-ol

[0313] [ka] Chiral separation of 1a (700 g, 3.2 mol), prepared as described in J. Med. Chem. 2012, 55(10), 4605, was carried out using chiral SFC (AS-H column, 95 / 5 CO2 / EtOH mobile phase, 2 mL injection volume, 2.5 mL / min flow rate, 35 °C). Retention times using the preparative AS-H column were 3.01 min for peak 1 and 3.70 min for peak 2 with baseline resolution. Peak 1 material had an er ratio of 100 / 0. Peak 1 material from the chiral separation (1b, 294 g, 1.37 mol) was dissolved in EtOH (3.2 L) and BocO (486 g, 2.23 mol) was added, followed by Pd10% / C (10 g). The reaction was stirred at 25 °C under an atmosphere of H2 (60 psi) for 18 h. Fresh Pd / C (5 g) was then added, and stirring under H2 (60 psi) was continued for 30 min. HPLC showed that all benzyl groups had been removed. The catalyst was filtered off, and most of the EtOH was removed in vacuo to give a yellow oil. Heptane (500 mL) was added, and the mixture was co-evaporated to remove as much EtOH as possible. The yellow residue was dissolved in 2-MeTHF (1.8 L) and cooled in an ice-water bath. When the internal temperature was below 5 °C, N,N-dimethylethylenediamine (105 mL, 0.956 mol) was added to quench the excess Boc2O. After the addition, the reaction was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 45 min. The reaction was re-cooled in an ice bath, and 1 N HCl (800 mL) was added to pH 2, maintaining the internal temperature below 20 °C. The layers were separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted with 2-MeTHF (1 x 300 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with saturated NaHCO3, brine, and dried over MgSO4. The solvent was removed to give a yellow oil. Co-evaporation with heptane (250 mL) gave 286 g of crude oil with 89% purity by HPLC. Heptane (1.1 L) was added to the oil, and the mixture was cooled in an ice-water bath. When the internal temperature reached 9 °C, the mixture became cloudy. A few seed crystals were added, and the mixture was allowed to warm slowly to room temperature overnight. The solid that formed was collected by filtration and washed with a small amount of cold heptane.After drying under vacuum, tert-butyl (1R,5R)-6-oxo-3-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-3-carboxylate (1c, 237 g, 77%, 97.4% pure by HPLC) was obtained as a white solid. A solution of 1c (5.0 g, 22 mmol) in MeOH (100 mL) was cooled in an ice bath. NaBH (924 mg, 24.4 mmol) was added, and the reaction was stirred at 0 °C for 10 min. The ice bath was removed, and the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. Methanol was removed in vacuo, and the resulting residue was partitioned between saturated aqueous NaHCO and EtOAc. The aqueous layer was further extracted with EtOAc, and the combined organic extracts were dried over NaSO and concentrated to give 5.5 g of the Boc-protected alcohol as a white solid. The yield was slightly greater than 100% due to the presence of residual EtOAc in the sample. 1 H NMR (400 MHz, chloroform-d) δ = 4.30 - 4.18 (m, 2H), 3.81 (br d, J = 12.2 Hz, 1H), 2.93 (br d, J = 12.5 Hz, 1H), 2.87 (dd, J = 1.2, 13.2 Hz, 1H), 2.29 (ddd, J = 7.0, 10.6, 13.9 Hz, 1H), 2.14 (br s, 2H), 1.69 - 1.62 (m, 1H), 1.59 - 1.53 (m, 1H), 1.48 (s, 9H), 1.46 - 1.41 (m, 1H), 1.15 (td, J = 2.8, 14.0 Hz, 1H). To a solution of the Boc-protected alcohol (5.0 g, 22 mmol) in DCM (5 mL) was added HCl in dioxane (4N 25 mL, 100 mmol). Gas evolution occurred immediately. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 5 minutes, and a white precipitate formed. After an additional hour, the reaction was diluted with heptane and the white solid was collected by filtration. The solid was dried under high vacuum overnight to give (1R,5R,6R)-3-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-6-ol HCl salt, Preparation 1 (3.5 g, 97%) as a white powder. 1H NMR (400 MHz, D2O) δ = 4.63 - 4.54 (m, 1H), 3.48 (dd, J = 2.6, 12.6 Hz, 1H), 3.24 (s, 2H), 3.16 (br d, J = 12.7 Hz, 1H), 2.50 - 2.38 (m, 3H), 1.77 (d, J = 2.2 Hz, 2H), 1.53 - 1.45 (m, 1H); MS: [M+H] + 128.1.

[0327] Preparation 8: (7,8-Difluoro-3-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)boronic acid.

[0328] [ka] The compound 1-(6-bromo-2,3-difluorophenyl)ethan-1-one (8a) (7.39 g, 31.4 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (79 mL). Pd(OAc) (706 mg, 3.14 mmol), (tert-Bu)P-HBF (1.82 g, 6.29 mmol), and LiF (4.89 mg, 189 mmol) were added, followed by tert-butyltyl((1-methoxyvinyl)oxy)dimethylsilane (18.4 g, 97.5 mmol). N was bubbled through the mixture for 10 minutes, and the reaction was heated at 70 °C for 30 minutes. The reaction was cooled to room temperature, and HO (50 mL) and EtOAc (100 mL) were added. The layers were separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted with another portion of EtOAc (100 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine (5 × 50 mL) and concentrated. The residue was dissolved in EtO (100 mL), and heptane (200 mL) was added, followed by removal of heptane to azeotropically remove residual DMF. The resulting residue was purified using flash chromatography eluting with a gradient of 0 to 100% EtOAc in heptane to afford 8b (6.24 g, 87%) as an oil. 1 H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.18 (dt, J = 9.5, 8.3 Hz, 1H), 6.97 (ddd, J = 8.4, 4.4, 1.7 Hz, 1H), 3.77 (s, 2H), 3.68 (s, 3H), 2.62 (d, J = 3.8 Hz, 3H). To a solution of 8b (6.24 g, 27.3 mmol) in THF (273 mL) at −78° C. was added LHMDS (1 M in THF 49.2 mL, 49.2 mmol) dropwise. The reaction turned red and was stirred for 5 min, after which the −78° C. bath was replaced with an ice bath. After 15 min, the reaction was complete based on LCMS analysis and was quenched by the addition of 2 M HCl (100 mL). EtOAc (100 mL) was added and stirring continued for several minutes. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (3×50 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine (50 mL) and dried over sodium sulfate to give 8c (4.91 g, 91%) as a red solid, which was used in the next step without further purification. A solution of MeOH (125 mL) was cooled to 0 °C, and acetyl chloride (37.3 g, 476 mmol) was added dropwise. After a slight exotherm, the reaction reached 0 °C again. A solution of 8c (4.91 g, 25.0 mmol) in MeOH (50 mL) was then added. The reaction was charged to a reflux condenser and heated at 60 °C for 6.5 h. The reaction was concentrated and purified by flash chromatography using a gradient of 0 to 50% EtOAc in heptane to give 8d (3.78 g, 72%) as a beige solid. 1 H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.43 (ddd, J = 9.2, 4.7, 1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.29 - 7.21 (m, 1H), 6.74 - 6.69 (m, 2H), 6.63 (d, J = 22.8 Hz, 1H), 3.88 (s, 3H). To a solution of 8d (3.78 g, 40.2 mmol) in DCM (90 mL) was added EtN (3.64 g, 36.0 mmol), N,N-Bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)aniline (7.71 g, 21.6 mmol), and DMAP (110 mg, 0.899 mmol). The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 8 h. Additional N,N-bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)aniline (1.29 g, 3.60 mmol) was added, and the reaction was stirred for an additional 11 h. The mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel and washed with 1 N NaOH (50 mL). The DCM layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and purified by flash chromatography eluting with a gradient of 0 to 30% EtOAc in heptane to give 8e (6.7 g) as a solid in greater than theoretical yield. NMR indicated low purity, so the material was repurified using a 220 g Gold Isco column eluting with a gradient of 0 to 30% EtOAc in heptane to give 8e (5.18 g, 84%) as a beige solid. 1 H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.53 (ddd, J = 9.2, 4.6, 1.9 Hz, 1H), 7.39 (td, J = 9.4, 7.3 Hz, 1H), 7.20 (d, J = 2.3 Hz, 1H), 7.14 (t, J = 2.1 Hz, 1H), 3.94 (s, 3H), MS: 210 [M+H-SO2CF3] +Ethanol (56 mL) and DIPEA (7.91 mL, 45.4 mmol) were added to a flask containing 8e (5.18 g, 15.1 mmol). Tetrahydroxydiborane (2.04 g, 22.7 mmol), 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propanenickel(II) chloride (410 mg, 0.757 mmol), and triphenylphosphine (397 mg, 1.51 mmol) were added. Nitrogen was bubbled through the mixture for 5 minutes. The reaction was heated to 50 °C for 17 hours. LCMS showed one new peak that was more polar but not ionized. The mixture was diluted with EtOAc, and the product was extracted with 1 N NaOH (2 × 75 mL). The aqueous layer was acidified to pH = 1 with 6 N HCl and extracted with EtOAc (2 × 200 mL). The EtOAc was dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to give (7,8-difluoro-3-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)boronic acid, Preparation 8 (3.6 g, 99%) as a white solid. 1 H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ = 7.50 (ddd, J = 1.7, 4.7, 9.0 Hz, 1H), 7.42 (d, J = 2.3 Hz, 1H), The B(OH)2 protons appeared as very broad peaks at 7.32 (dt, J = 7.9, 9.4 Hz, 1H), 7.14 (t, J = 2.1 Hz, 1H), and 3.93 (s, 3H) between 2 and 3 ppm depending on the concentration. 19 F NMR (376 MHz, CDCl3) δ = -141.77 (d, J = 18 Hz, 1F), -144.32 (d, J = 20 Hz, 1F).

[0329] Preparation 9: 4,5,7-trichloro-8-fluoro-2-(methylthio)pyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidine

[0330] [ka] Diisopropylamine (44.1 mL, 314 mmol) was dissolved in THF (300 mL) and the solution was cooled to −78° C. n-BuLi (2.5 M in hexanes, 114 mL, 286 mmol) was added over 15 minutes. The mixture was stirred for 45 minutes, and CAS: 82671-06-5 (30 g, 143 mmol) was added as a solution in THF (75 mL) over 6 minutes. The mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 30 minutes. CAS: 630-25-1 (69.8 g, 214 mmol) was added as a solution in THF (120 mL) over 10 minutes. The reaction was maintained at −78° C. for 2 hours, and the reaction was monitored by LCMS. A new peak with MH=242 (product − COH) was observed (negative ion mode). The mixture was quenched by adding water (120 mL). After stirring for 10 min at −78° C., the cooling bath was removed and 6 N HCl (90 mL) was added. The pH=1 aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (×3). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine (×2) and dried over MgSO4. Removal of the solvent gave a solid, which was stirred in heptane (250 mL) for 1 h to remove the tetrachloroethylene by-product. After filtration, the solid was washed with heptane (3×100 mL) and dried to give 9a, 30.3 g (73%) as a cream-colored solid. 19F NMR (376 MHz, DMSO) A solution of d-114.17.9a (30.2 g, 104 mmol) was suspended in DCM (420 mL). Oxalyl chloride (25.0 mL, 300 mmol) was added, followed by DMF (40 mg). After stirring for 2 hours, solids were still present and bubbles were still visible. The mixture was then stirred overnight (16 hours). After stirring for 16 hours at room temperature, the solids had dissolved and the mixture became a yellow solution. The solvent was removed in vacuo to give 33.3 g of the acid chloride as a light brown solid. In a separate 500 mL round-bottom flask, methylimidothiocarbamate sulfate (33.2 g, 177 mmol) was stirred with half-saturated Na2CO3 (80 mL) to give a clear solution. Et2O (60 mL) was added to the solution, which was then cooled to 10 °C. The acid chloride of 9a was then added slowly as a solution in EtOAc (120 mL), monitoring the temperature with an internal thermometer. A very slight exotherm was observed, and the ice bath was removed after the addition was complete. After warming to room temperature, the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes while monitoring the consumption of the acid chloride using negative mode ionization and waiting for the absence of additional 9a (hydrolysis occurred during LCMS to give the acid). After the reaction was complete, clean product formation was observed, and a new peak at M+H=360 was observed with a multiple halogen pattern. The mixture was partitioned between water (100 mL) and EtOAc (150 mL), and the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (×2). The combined organic extracts were washed with saturated NaHCO3 (×1), dried over MgSO4, and concentrated to give 35 g (93%) of 9b as a light brown solid, which was used in the next reaction without further purification. 1 H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 9.03 (br s, 1 H), 9.53 (br s, 1 H), 2.40 (s, 3 H). 9b (14.7 g, 40.7 9c (9.6 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (45 mL) and DIEA (14.2 mL, 81.4 mmol) was added. The reaction was heated to 95° C. under N for 3 h, at which point LCMS analysis showed clean conversion to the cyclized product (9c) with M+H=282, 284. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture solution was poured into aqueous pH 5 buffer and 100 g of ice, and the resulting solution was adjusted to pH 3 using 6 N HCl. After addition to the cold aqueous solution, a pale yellow solid precipitated from the solution. The precipitate was collected in a Buchner funnel and washed with water (×3), affording 9.6 g (84%) of 9c after drying. 19 F NMR (376 MHz, DMSO): To a flask containing 135.4.9c (5.6 g, 20 mmol), DIEA (7.1 mL, 28.6 mmol) was added, and the suspension was cooled to 0 °C under N. POCl (30 mL, 320 mmol) was added in one portion, and the ice bath was removed. The mixture was then heated to 90 °C for 4 h. LCMS analysis (sample dissolved in MeOH) showed two monomethanol adducts with a Cl isotope pattern of M+H = 294. Excess POCl was chased with a mixture of toluene and DCM (×2), and the POCl was removed in vacuo. After removing all volatiles, the resulting orange solid was dry-loaded onto an 80 g ISCO silica column and purified using a gradient of 0–100% EtOAc in heptane, maintaining 100% EtOAc over 7 column volumes as the product slowly washed off the column. Concentration of the fractions gave 5.7 g (95%) of Preparation 9 as an orange solid. 13 C NMR (101 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 165.5, 157.2, 148.6, 146.7, 146.0, 143.2, 137.4, 137.3, 114.8, 12.9; 19 F NMR (376 MHz, DMSO) d -135.5.

The mixture was cooled to 0 °C, and (S)-piperidin-2-ylmethanol (421 mg, 3.65 mmol) was added as a solution in THF (18 mL). After 8 minutes, the first nitrogen-carbon bond was formed, as observed by LCMS. LiOtBu (877 mg, 11.0 mmol) was added as a solution in THF (22 mL), and the mixture was warmed to 50 °C. After 4 hours at 50 °C, LCMS analysis showed conversion to Preparation 9. The reaction mixture was then diluted with 200 mL of water, and the product was extracted with DCM (50 mL × 4).

The resulting solution was cooled to -40 °C and DIPEA (7.0 mL, 42 mmol) was added. The mixture was gradually warmed from -40 °C to room temperature over 3.5 hours. The mixture was partitioned between water and DCM, and the DCM layer was washed with water (3x). The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate, and fresh CAS# 135938-63-5 (1.6 g, 6.9 mmol) was added, followed by fresh DIPEA (7.0 mL, 42 mmol), and the reaction was resubmitted to reaction conditions. After stirring for 1 hour, a third portion of CAS# 135938-63-5 (1.6 g, 6.9 mmol) was added, and the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was partitioned between water and DCM, and the DCM layer was washed with water (3x). The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated.

After filtration and concentration, 18C (341 mg, 90%) was obtained. Note: The masses of the sulfoxide and sulfone were both observed under a single broad peak. MS: sulfoxide: 891.4, sulfone: 907.4 [M+H] + This material was taken on to the next step without further purification. Compound 18C (341 mg, 0.376 mmol) was combined with CAS# 2097518-76-6 (89.7 mg, 0.564 mmol) and lithium trimethylsilanolate (108 mg, 1.13 mmol) in CH3CN (4.18 mL). The mixture was heated at 80 °C for 30 minutes. After cooling, the solid was removed by filtration. The filtrate was diluted with water (40 mL) and extracted with a solvent mixture of 10% EtOAc in heptane (3 x 10 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography by dissolving in 5 mL of heptane and loading directly onto a silica column. Gradient elution using 0-100% EtOAc in heptane gave 18D (236 mg, 64%).

The residue was purified by flash chromatography eluting with a gradient of 0 to 100% EtOAc (containing 10% by volume of 7N ammonia in methanol) in heptane. Pure fractions were collected to give 18D (50 mg, 27%), and the column was further flushed with 75% methanol in DCM to elute the remaining target material remaining on the column, yielding an additional 100 mg of product. The overall yield for the C4 deprotection step was 150 mg, 81%, MS: 775.3 [M+H]. + HCl. Half of this material was carried on directly to the amine coupling step.

[0378] Preparation 9 (450 mg, 1.51 mmol) was suspended in CHCN (10 mL). DIPEA (276 μL, 1.59 mmol) was added, and the suspension was cooled to 0 °C under N. In a separate vial, CAS 1262409-55-1-HCl salt (232 mg, 1.39 mmol) was suspended in DCM (1 mL), and DIPEA (276 μL, 1.59 mmol) was added to dissolve the amine-HCl salt. THF (6 mL) was added to the resulting solution, resulting in a milky mixture. This solution was added to the flask containing the cold solution of Preparation 9. After approximately 45 minutes at 0 °C, LCMS analysis initially indicated the reaction was complete. LiOtBu (1 M in THF, 4.5 mL, 4.5 mmol) was added dropwise, and the ice bath was removed. The ice bath was replaced with an oil bath and the reaction was heated at 50 °C for 30 min. LCMS analysis indicated the cyclization step was complete. The solution was cooled to room temperature and evaporated. Saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (10 mL) was added and the mixture was extracted with DCM (3 x 30 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated. The process described above was repeated again on the same scale with the same observations and results. The crude material from both reactions was combined and purified using flash chromatography eluting with a gradient of 0 to 100% EtOAc in heptane, using DCM to load the crude material onto a silica cartridge. Fractions containing the desired product were pooled and concentrated to give 483 mg (70%) of 14a as a light brown solid. 1 H NMR (400 MHz, chloroform-d) δ = 5.22 (ddd, J = 2.9, 6.8, 13.8 Hz, 1H), 4.65 (dd, J = 4.6, 13.4 Hz, 1H), 4.42 (d, J = 13.4 Hz, 1H), 4.22 - 4.17 (m, 1H), 4.09 - 3.98 (m, 2H), 3.72 (dd, J = 9.8, 12.6 Hz, 1H), 3.43 - 3.24 (m, 2H), 2.62 (s, 3H), 2.26 - 2.12 (m, 1H), 2.05 - 1.92 (m, 1H). 19 F NMR (376 MHz, chloroform-d) δ = -140.51 (s, 1F). Analysis of this material by chiral SFC indicated an optical purity of 50% ee, indicating that the starting amino alcohol (CAS 1262409-55-1-HCl salt) was not optically pure. In a subsequent sequence, the minor enantiomer was removed using preparative chiral SFC (see below). To a vial equipped with a stir bar was added 14a (400 mg, 1.12 mmol), CAS 2621932-37-2 (689 mg, 1.35 mmol), 1,4-dioxane (5.6 mL), and K2CO3 (465 mg, 3.4 mmol) added as a solution in water (0.6 mL).

LCMS showed that the starting material had been consumed, and water (5 mL) was added. The dark mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3 x 30 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over NaSO, filtered, evaporated, and subjected to chiral SFC purification to remove the minor enantiomer. After chiral SFC, 480 mg (62%) of 14b was obtained in 90% ee. 1 H NMR (400 MHz, methanol-d4) δ = 7.95 (dd, J = 5.8, 9.1 Hz, 1H), 7.64 (d, J = 2.5 Hz, 1H), 7.40 (t, J = 8.9 Hz, 1H), 7.34 (dd, J = 2.3, 19.4 Hz, 1H), 5.39 - 5.30 (m, 2H), 5.26 - 5.14 (m, 1H), 4.71 (ddd, J = 4.7, 13.6, 18.6 Hz, 1H), 4.57 - 4.48 (m, 1H), 4.31 (tt, J = 4.9, 9.4 Hz, 1H), 4.24 - 4.14 (m, 1H), 4.06 - 3.79 (m, 2H), 3.71 - 3.52 (m, 2H), 3.51 - 3.48 (m, 3H), 2.61 (s, 3H), 2.28 - 2.12 (m, 1H), 2.07 - 1.88 (m, 1H), 0.98 - 0.90 (m, 18H), 0.77 - 0.61 (m, 3H), 19 F NMR (376 MHz, methanol-d4) δ = -108.33 (d, J = 69.4 Hz, 1F), -141.66 - -144.80 (m, 1F), MS: 707 [M+H] + 14b (402 mg, 0.57 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (9.5 mL). Anhydrous CsF (518 mg, 3.42 mmol) was added, and the reaction was heated to 35° C. for 45 min. Most of the DMF was removed in vacuo (5 mm Hg, 30° C.), and water (5 mL) was added to the resulting residue. A solid precipitated and was extracted into DCM (3×20 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over NaSO, filtered, and evaporated to give the crude product, which was subjected to chiral SFC to further enrich the desired enantiomer. After chiral SFC, 257 mg (82%) of 14c was obtained as a light brown solid. 1 H NMR (400 MHz, chloroform-d) δ = 7.87 - 7.74 (m, 1H), 7.55 - 7.50 (m, 1H), 7.46 - 7.35 (m, 1H), 5.37 - 5.16 (m, 3H), 4.71 - 4.59 (m, 1H), 4.54 - 4.41 (m, 1H), 4.21 (dt, J = 3.8, 12.2 Hz, 1H), 4.14 - 3.97 (m, 2H), 3.83 (td, J = 9.1, 12.6 Hz, 1H), 3.52 (d, J = 2.8 Hz, 3H), 3.47 - 3.23 (m, 2H), 2.92 (d, J = 19.6 Hz, 1H), 2.64 (s, 3H), 2.36 - 2.17 (m, 1H), 2.13 - 1.93 (m, 1H), 1.50 (s, 1H), 19F NMR (376 MHz, chloroform-d) δ = -106.89 - -109.75 (m, 1F), -143.05 (d, J = 363.4 Hz, 1F). To a mixture of 14c (252 mg, 0.46 mmol) in MEK (7 mL) was added solid oxone (646 mg, 1.03 mmol) and saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (7 mL). The mixture was stirred at 1500 rpm at room temperature for 20 min. The reaction was diluted with EtOAc (20 mL), and the aqueous layer was extracted twice more with EtOAc (2 x 20 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with 10% aqueous Na2S2O3 (10 mL) and brine (10 mL). After drying over Na2SO4, the mixture was filtered and evaporated to give 301 mg of the sulfone as a pale yellow gum. MS: 583 [M+H] + This material was carried on to the next step without further purification. The sulfone (267 mg, 0.458 mmol) and CAS 2097518-76-6 (100 mg, 0.64 mmol) were dissolved in CHCN (0.9 mL). Lithium trimethylsilanolate (130 mg, 1.4 mmol) was added, and the vial was sealed, stirred, and heated to 50 °C for 30 min to give 14d, which was carried on to the MOM deprotection step in the same pot. After cooling to room temperature, MeOH (2 mL) was added to the 14d solution, followed by HCl (4 M in 1,4-dioxane, 3.5 mL, 14 mmol), and the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 30 min.

[0382] The solution formulation of Example 33 was an aqueous solution containing 2.5% (w / v) Pluronic F-68 (Poloxamer 188). The amorphous suspension formulations of Examples 33 and 34 were made using 0.5% (w / v) methylcellulose in water.

[0383] As demonstrated in Figure 1 and Table 1-A, following oral administration of a single dose of 100 mg (active) / kg in female NSG mice, the mean systemic exposure of Example 33 (as assessed by AUC and / or Cav) was approximately 10-17 fold higher following administration of Example 34 compared to administration of an oral suspension dose of Example 33 (free base).

[0390] The predicted deuterated analogs V-1 to V-18 of Example 33 in Table 2 may offer certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, such as increased in vivo half-life, reduced dosage requirements, decreased CYP450 inhibition (competitive or time-dependent), or improved therapeutic index or tolerability.

Such additional deuterated analogs may provide similar therapeutic benefits that can be achieved by deuterated analogs V-1 through V-18 of Example 33 in Table 2.

[0392] KRAS surface plasma resonance (SPR) binding assay Using SPR assays, the kinetic binding constants (K D ) was measured.

[0393] The binding affinity and kinetics of the present invention were measured by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) using a Biacore 8K or 8K+ (Cytiva, Marlborough, MA) instrument. Purified recombinant C-terminal site-specifically biotinylated wild-type (WT) KRAS (aa1-185), G12D KRAS (aa1-185), G12C KRAS (aa2-184), G12V KRAS (aa2-184), WT HRAS (aa2-184), and WT NRAS (aa2-185) proteins were used in these experiments in the presence of 1 μM GDP. Binding measurements were performed in parallel for either the WT / G12D / G12C / G12V KRAS or WT K / H / N RAS protein sets.

[0394] The Biacore instrument was detached and docked with a Series S Sensor Chip SA. Protein was diluted to 50 μg / mL in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES, 150 mM NaCl, 10 μM GDP, 5 mM MgCl2, 0.5 mM TCEP, 5% glycerol, 0.02% Tween-20, 2% DMSO, pH 7.2) and immobilized at a flow rate of 3 μL / min at 10°C for a 15-minute contact time, capturing approximately 3,000–4,000 RU of protein on the surface. The functionalized surface was then equilibrated with assay buffer for approximately 1 hour. An unfunctionalized SA surface without immobilized protein served as a reference for binding kinetic analysis. Compound binding kinetics were measured in either multi-cycle or single-cycle kinetic formats.

[0395] Multi-cycle kinetic analysis (MCK) Two-fold, 10-point serial dilutions of test compounds were prepared in a 96-well microplate (Greiner; Cat # 650101) with a maximum concentration of either 10 μM or 100 μM. Binding kinetics were measured by injecting serial compound dilutions into both the reference and RAS-immobilized channels at a flow rate of 100 μL / min and an association time of 90 seconds at 10°C. Compound dissociation was monitored for at least 400 seconds during each cycle. No additional regeneration was used. DMSO calibration curves were obtained by injecting 0–4% DMSO in assay buffer before and after compound analysis. As a positive control to assess the activity of proteins captured on the surface, a suitable compound with known affinity and kinetics was tested once in each experiment.

[0396] Single-cycle kinetic analysis (SCK) Three-fold, six-point serial dilutions of compounds were prepared in a deep 96-well microplate (Greiner Bio; Cat. # 780201) with a top concentration of 1 μM (concentration range: 0.004–1 μM). Binding kinetics were measured at 10°C by injecting the serial compound dilutions in increasing order into the reference and RAS-immobilized channels at a flow rate of 100 μL / min and an association time of 120 s. Compound dissociation was monitored for at least 3600 s. Two buffer blanks were also run in a single-cycle kinetic format, followed by the compound for double referencing. No additional regeneration was used. DMSO calibration curves were obtained by injecting 0–4% DMSO in assay buffer before and after compound analysis. As a positive control to assess the activity of proteins captured on the surface, a suitable compound with known affinity and kinetics was tested once in each experiment.

[0397] Both MCK and SCK data were processed and analyzed using Biacore Insight Evaluation Software (Cytiva, Marlborough, MA). The double-referenced and solvent-corrected data were fitted to a 1:1 Langmuir model to determine the kinetic binding constant (K D ), association velocity (k on ) and dissociation rate (k off The dissociation half-life (t 1 / 2 ) to the measured k off From the standard formula (t 1 / 2 =0.693 / k off ) was calculated using the fit. 2 The values and randomness of residue distribution were used to determine the effect.

[0398] The SPR binding assay results for Examples 1-31 are presented in Table 3. When Examples were tested more than once, the binding constants K D The geometric means of the α- and β-glucans are presented (n is the number of test replicates). Blank cells in Table 3 indicate that no data was available for that example in a particular assay.

[0399] Coupling constant K D have shown that the exemplified compounds have potent binding ability to all of the KRAS G12C, KRAS G12D, and KRAS G12V receptors, and may have selectivity over the HRAS and NRAS receptors.

[0401] KRAS Cell Titer Glo (CTG) assay The CellTiter-Glo® (CTG) Luminescent Cell Viability Assay is a homogeneous method for determining the number of viable cells in culture based on quantification of ATP present, an indicator of metabolically active cells. The CTG is designed for use in a multiwell format, making it ideal for automated high-throughput screening (HTS), cell proliferation, and cytotoxicity assays. The homogeneous assay procedure involves adding a single reagent (CellTiter-Glo® Reagent) directly to cells cultured in serum-supplemented medium. No cell washing, medium removal, or multiple pipetting steps are required. The system detects as few as 15 cells per well in a 384-well format in 10 minutes from reagent addition and mixing.

[0402] Cells were grown in a humidified 5% CO2 incubator at 37°C using the culture conditions outlined below. All cell culture media reagents were purchased from Gibco. Cell lines were purchased from ATCC: H358 (non-small cell lung cancer cell line), SW620 (colorectal cancer cell line), and PANC08.13 (RPMI1640 + 10% FBS + insulin 10 units / ml, pancreatic cancer cell line). Test and control compounds were dispensed as nanoliter drops at the desired final concentration in 0.1% DMSO onto a 384 assay plate (Corning, Cat#3764) using an Echo Acoustic Dispenser, followed by cell seeding. Cells were seeded in a 40 μL volume per well at the following cell densities (cells per well): H358 (300), SW620 (750), and PANC08.13 (600). Cells are incubated in the presence of compound for 7 days. Viability is determined on day 7 using CellTiter-Glo® (CTG) Luminescent Cell Viability Assay (Promega). CTG is added to a final volume of 20 μl per well and incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes, after which luminescence is captured using an EnVision Reader with the LUM384 US protocol. Data is analyzed using Activity Base to determine compound response, and is expressed as either percent effect (PCTEFF) or percent control (PCTOCTL) as described below: zero percent effect control (ZPE) (negative control) - DMSO 100%; 100 percent effect (HPE) (positive control) - 1uM trametinib (GSK1120212, MEK inhibitor) (10mM 4nl per well and DMSO 36nl). The following formula / nomenclature is used (% effect; PCTEFF) and (% of control; PCTOCTL): PCTEFF: 100 × (raw data value − HPE / ZPE − HPE), PCTOCTL: 100 × raw data value / User_Defined_Array), where User_Defined_Array is either the aggregated HPE or ZPE.

[0403] CTG assay results for some exemplified examples are presented in Table 4. If an example was tested more than once, the IC 50 Geometric means (nM) are presented (n is the number of test replicates).

[0404] The CTG assay indicates that selected exemplary compounds of the present invention have demonstrated anti-cancer activity against pancreatic cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, and colorectal cancer.
