Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 393,557, filed July 29, 2022, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. [Background technology]

[0002] background The human genome encodes 538 protein kinases, most of which are functionally important and involved in the pathogenesis of many diseases. Small molecule inhibition of kinase enzymatic activity is an attractive and tractable approach for treating disease. Currently, there are approximately 73 kinase inhibitors approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat a variety of diseases. This indicates that kinase inhibition is a validated therapeutic approach with opportunities for significant development and advancement.

[0003] Endometriosis is a debilitating inflammatory disease associated with dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, and menorrhagia, causing infertility and increasing the incidence of endometrioid and clear cell ovarian cancer. In women with endometriosis, endometrial tissue invades the peritoneal cavity through retrograde menstruation, resulting in the attachment and persistent growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. The disease affects approximately 190 million women aged 15–49 years worldwide (approximately 10%).

[0004] Women with endometriosis typically endure the disease's painful symptoms for approximately 10 years before receiving a definitive diagnosis. Furthermore, even after diagnosis, available endometriosis treatments are limited and often ineffective in the long term. For example, surgical removal of endometriotic implants does not completely cure the disease, as the lesions and associated pain typically recur. The debilitating pain of endometriosis and its many associated side effects prevent women from living a vibrant and fulfilling life during their peak years.

[0005] Thus, there is an urgent need in the art for compositions and methods of use for treating, preventing, and / or ameliorating endometriosis. The present disclosure addresses this need. Summary of the Invention

[Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0024] The drawings illustrate various aspects of the present application generally by way of example, but not by way of limitation.

[0025] [Figure 1A]Figures 1A-1B demonstrate the identification of NTRK2 as a therapeutic target for endometriosis. Gene expression profiling of endometrial tissue from normal women (control endometrium, CE, n=43), endometrial tissue from women with endometriosis (patient endometriosis, PE, n=104), and endometrial tissue from endometriotic lesions (ovarian endometrioma, OMA, n=28; deep endometriosis, DiE, n=91; peritoneal endometriotic lesion, PeL, n=79) identified NTRK2 overexpression in the NTRK2 isoforms NM_006180 (Figure 1A) and NM-001007097 (Figure 1B). NTRK2 overexpression was confirmed in three additional endometriosis datasets: GSE25628, GSE23339, and GSE7305 (fold change >1.4, p<0.05). [Figure 1B] See legend to Figure 1A. [Figure 2-1] Figures 2A-2K show overexpression and activity of NTRK2 in stromal cells of endometriotic lesions. Figure 2A: Western blotting analysis shows that NTRK2 is more abundant in lysates from ectopic peritoneal lesions and ovarian endometriomas than in eutopic normal endometrium or eutopic endometrium from endometriosis patients. Figures 2B-2G: Immunohistochemistry of NTRK2 and negative control (NC) shows staining in stromal and epithelial cells in peritoneal endometriotic lesions. Similar results were observed in endometriotic lesions from endometriomas and rectal endometriotic lesions. Figures 2H-2J: qRT-PCR shows that PGE2-mediated induction of the inflammatory genes PTGS2 / COX2, IL6, and IL8 is reduced after NTRK2 knockdown in primary stromal cells derived from endometriomas. Figure 2K: Western blot analysis of endometriotic stromal cells treated with siNTRK2 ± PGE2 shows that PGE2-induced CREB phosphorylation is suppressed after NTRK2 siRNA treatment. [Figure 2-2] See description of Figure 2-1. [Figure 2-3] See description of Figure 2-1. [Figure 2-4] See description of Figure 2-1. [Figure 2-5] Refer to the description of FIG. 2-1. [Figure 2-6] Refer to the description of FIG. 2-1. [Figure 3] FIG. 3 demonstrates that NTRK2 variants are associated with endometriosis. By analyzing 36,697 endometriosis cases and 116,071 controls from the FinnGen database, 20 NTRK2 variants associated with endometriosis were identified (i.e., -log10p value ≧ 3; p < 0.001). Note that 182 NTRK2 variants were found within the range of 0.001 < p < 0.01. Variants within the NTRK2 gene boundary are more densely shaded than those upstream or downstream of the NTRK2 gene boundary. [Figure 4] FIG. 4 shows the order of steps for using the DEC-Tec platform. (1) Using important chemical reactions, compounds attached to DNA are produced; (2) A library pool consisting of more than 6 billion DNA-encoded drug-like compounds each having a "DNA barcode" is prepared; (3) The library for his-tagged proteins is affinity selected; (4) With the small molecule bound to the his-tagged protein, the his-tagged protein is captured by nickel beads; (5) The protein is separated from the unbound compounds; (6) The DNA barcode is sequenced and informatically analyzed to decipher the molecular structure of the putative selective drug-like "hits"; and (7) The "hits" with / without the DNA tag are resynthesized and tested for binding / inhibition. [Figure 5A]Figures 5A-5B show a non-limiting example of the use of the DEC-Tec platform to identify NTRK2 binders. Parallel DEC-Tec selections were performed with NTRK2, without NTRK2 (control), or in the presence of the promiscuous kinase inhibitor staurosporine (not shown). The enrichment (measured by normalized z-score) of each library member from the selections was compared. A set of analogs consistent with competitive ligand binding was significantly enriched in the NTRK2-only selection but not in either the control or NTRK2 + staurosporine selections. The hits, CDD-2262 and analog CDD-2330, are potent and metabolically stable molecules. [Figure 5B] See legend to Figure 5A. [Figure 6] Figures 6A-6B illustrate the concept of live-cell engagement (Figure 6A) and an NTRK2 example (Figure 6B). Figure 6A: Depiction of Promega's NanoBRET target engagement system according to the Promega website. This system involves cell-based competitive displacement of a fluorescent NanoBRET tracer reversibly bound to a NanoLuc fusion protein. Test compounds displace the tracer depending on their affinity for the target, reducing the loss of NanoBRET signal. Figure 6B: Example using Promega's NTRK2 NanoBRET cell-based system. Each NTRK2 compound (Cpd) was assayed in kinase assays and in cells. Multiple NTRK2 compounds enter cells and are potent nanomolar inhibitors in these assays (normalized to % no Cpd). Staurosporine, a promiscuous kinase inhibitor, is the positive control in these assays. [Figure 7A]Figures 7A-7B show a TREEspot™ plot of KINOMEscan binding data for CDD-2330 across the human kinome tree (Figure 7A) and a Z'-LYTE™ kinase screening assay (Figure 7B) demonstrating the low nanomolar affinity of CDD-2330 for the NTRK subfamily. Figure 7A: The larger the black circle, the higher the affinity of the ligand binding; CDD-2330 is highly specific for NTRK1, NTRK2, and NTRK3, with little off-target binding, even when tested at a concentration of 1 μM. Figure 7B: Kinase specificity for the NTRK subfamily was observed using the ThermoFisher Z'-LYTE™ screening assay. [Figure 7B] See legend to Figure 7A. [Figure 8] 8A-8B provide graphs demonstrating CDD-3031 metabolic stability in mouse liver microsomes (MLM) (FIG. 8A) and human liver microsomes (FIG. 8B). [Figure 9] Figures 9A-9B show the distribution of CDD-2330 in mouse brain (Figure 9A) and testis (Figure 9B). Mice (n=3 per time point) were intraperitoneally treated with CDD-2330, and brain, testis, and blood samples were collected. Samples were processed and analyzed by LC-MS. [Figure 10] Figures 10A-10C show the distribution of hydroxyzine (Figure 10A), chlorpromazine (Figure 10B), and CDD-3031 (Figure 10C) in the brain and plasma of mice 24 hours after administration, demonstrating low brain penetration. [Figure 11]Figures 11A-11B show the pharmacokinetics of CDD-2330 (Figure 11A) and CDD-3031 (Figure 11B) in mice. CDD-2330 was dissolved in 10% DMSO + 0.5% methylcellulose at 5 mg / mL. 50 mg / kg of CDD-2330 was orally delivered to mice (n=4). Blood samples were collected at 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours. Samples were analyzed by LC-MS, and CDD-2330 concentrations were quantified using a calibration curve (range: 0-10 μM). A dose of 50 mg / kg of CDD-3031 was administered by oral gavage. Blood samples were collected at 0, 0.83, 0.167, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours. [Figure 12A] Figures 12A-12C show that NTRK2 stimulates proinflammatory signaling and pain in endometriosis. Figure 12A: Estrogen secreted by the ovaries and endometriotic lesions signals macrophages and nerve fibers, including the production of BDNF / NT-3 and proinflammatory cytokines, respectively. Figure 12B: At the cellular level, our studies show that proinflammatory prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) signals through EP2 / EP4 receptors on endometriotic stromal cells, inducing the phosphorylation and activation of CREB (pCREB). Activated CREB acts on the PTGS2 promoter, creating a positive feedback mechanism that increases inflammation. PGE2 signaling also stimulates PKA / PKC signaling, inducing BDNF production and NTF3 expression. Figure 12C: Endometriotic stromal cells were pretreated with 1 μM entrectinib or various doses of CDD-2262, followed by stimulation with 1 μM PGE2 for 6 hours. PTGS2 gene expression was quantified using quantitative real-time PCR (RT-PCR). [Figure 12B] See legend to Figure 12A. [Figure 12C] See legend to Figure 12A. [Figure 13] FIG. 13 provides the chemical structures of CDD-2330 metabolites in mouse plasma. [Figure 14]FIG. 14 provides a schematic illustrating the experimental procedure for studies utilizing the endometriosis mouse model described herein. [Figure 15A] Figures 15A-15E provide photographs (Figures 15A-15C) and graphs (Figures 15D-15E) demonstrating that CDD-2737 reduces lesion number and lesion size in a mouse model of endometriosis. [Figure 15B] See legend to Figure 15A. [Figure 15C] See legend to Figure 15A. [Figure 15D] See legend to Figure 15A. [Figure 15E] See legend to Figure 15A. [Figure 16] Figures 16A-16B provide graphs demonstrating that CDD-2737 has no gross or serum effects on the liver and kidney. [Figure 17-1] Figures 17A-17F illustrate the robust efficacy of inhibitory compounds of the present disclosure as NTRK2 inhibitors for inhibiting endometriotic lesion growth in mice, utilizing CDD-3132 as an example. Figure 17A provides a schematic overview of the experiment performed. Figures 17B-17C provide photographs showing excised lesions administered with control (Figure 17B) or CDD-3132 (10 mg / kg / day) (Figure 17C). Figures 17D-17F provide graphs showing the number of lesions (Figure 17D), lesion volume (Figure 17E), and lesion mass (Figure 17F) per mouse administered certain compounds (i.e., CDD-3031, CDD-3119, CDD-3132, and PF-06273340 at 10 mg / kg / day) or control (vehicle). [Figure 17-2] See description of Figure 17-1. [Figure 17-3] See description of Figure 17-1. [Figure 18A]Figures 18A-18B provide microscopic images of excised lesions from mice treated with vehicle or CDD-3132, by H&E staining (Figure 18A) or confocal microscopy (Figure 18B), demonstrating that NTRK2 inhibitors reduce proliferation and inflammation in endometriotic lesions. [Figure 18B] See legend to Figure 18A. [Figure 19] FIG. 19 provides photographs of excised lesions from mice administered CDD-3031, CDD-3119, and PF-06273340 (10 mg / kg). [Figure 20] Figures 20A-20B provide graphs illustrating the total liver (Figure 20A) and kidney (Figure 20B) weights in mice administered certain compounds, demonstrating that NTRK2 inhibitors had no significant effect on liver and kidney weights in mice treated with certain compounds, including CDD-3031, CDD-3119, and CDD-3132, for 14 days.

[0080] explanation Neurotrophin receptor tyrosine kinases 1, 2, and 3 (NTRK1, NTRK2, and NTRK3) have been shown to be important for various aspects of nervous system function, including nociceptive pain. Gene fusions involving these kinases (e.g., TPM3-NTRK1, MPRIP-NTRK1, TRIM24-NTRK2, and ETV6-NTRK3) have been observed in adult and pediatric gliomas and other cancers (e.g., non-small cell lung cancer), amplifying signaling cascades and acting as oncogenic drivers.

[0081] In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to the identification of the target for treating patients with endometriosis and the inflammation and pain associated with endometriosis.Therefore, the present disclosure describes the bioinformatics analysis of the kinase that is overexpressed in endometriosis tissue.By this bioinformatics analysis, NTRK2 is identified as the potential therapeutic target for endometriosis.

[0082] As demonstrated herein, NTRK2 is upregulated in endometriotic lesions, and silencing NTRK2 in primary endometriotic stromal cells inhibits the expression of proinflammatory genes. Furthermore, administration of ANA-12, a selective NTRK2 inhibitor that rapidly crosses the blood-brain barrier and exerts antidepressant and anxiolytic effects, induces regression of endometriotic lesions in mice. These studies indicate that NTRK2 contributes to endometriosis-associated survival and inflammation.

[0083] Additionally, the present disclosure describes the identification, preparation, and validation of NTRK2 inhibitors for treating, preventing, and / or ameliorating endometriosis and / or its symptoms, cancer, and pain in a subject.

[0134] In certain embodiments, the compounds described herein are prepared as prodrugs. A "prodrug" refers to an agent that is converted into the parent drug in vivo. In certain embodiments, upon in vivo administration, the prodrug is chemically converted into a biologically, pharmaceutically, or therapeutically active form of the compound. In other embodiments, the prodrug is enzymatically metabolized by one or more steps or processes into a biologically, pharmaceutically, or therapeutically active form of the compound.

[0135] In certain embodiments, moieties in the compounds described herein, such as the aromatic ring moieties of the compounds described herein, are susceptible to various metabolic reactions. Incorporation of appropriate substituents into the aromatic ring structure can reduce, minimize, or eliminate this metabolic pathway. In certain embodiments, suitable substituents for reducing or eliminating the susceptibility of the aromatic ring to metabolic reactions include, by way of example only, deuterium, halogen, or alkyl groups.

[0136] The compounds described herein also include isotopically labeled compounds 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 normally found in nature. Examples of isotopes suitable for inclusion in the compounds described herein include: 2 H, 3 H, 11 C. 13 C. 14 C. 36 Cl, 18 F, 123 I, 125 I, 13 N, 15 N, 15 O. 17 O. 18 O. 32 P, and 35Isotopically labeled compounds include, but are not limited to, S. In certain embodiments, isotopically labeled compounds are useful in drug and / or substrate tissue distribution studies. In other embodiments, substitution with heavy isotopes such as deuterium provides increased metabolic stability (e.g., longer in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements). In yet other embodiments, 11 C. 18 F, 15 O, and 13 Substitution with positron-emitting isotopes, such as N, is useful in Positron Emission Topography (PET) studies for examining substrate receptor occupancy. Isotopically labeled compounds are prepared by any suitable method or process in which a suitable isotopically labeled reagent is substituted for a non-labeled reagent otherwise used in the method.

[0137] In certain aspects, the compounds described herein are labeled by other means, including non-virtually chromophores or fluorescent moieties, bioluminescent labels, or chemiluminescent labels.

[0138] The compounds described herein, and other related compounds having different substituents, can be synthesized using the techniques and materials described herein, e.g., in Fieser & Fieser's Reagents for Organic Synthesis, Volumes 1-17 (John Wiley and Sons, 1991); Rodd's Chemistry of Carbon Compounds, Volumes 1-5 and Supplementals (Elsevier Science Publishers, 1989); Organic Reactions, Volumes 1-40 (John Wiley and Sons, 1991), Larock's Comprehensive Organic Transformations (VCH Publishers Inc., 1989), Advanced Organic Chemistry 4 (March, 1994), and others. thEd., (Wiley 1992); Carey & Sundberg, Advanced Organic Chemistry 4th Ed., Vols. A and B (Plenum 2000, 2001), and Green & Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis 3rd Ed., (Wiley 1999) (all of which are incorporated by reference for such disclosures). The general methods for preparing the compounds described herein are modified by using appropriate reagents and conditions to introduce the various moieties found in the formulas provided herein.

[0139] The compounds described herein are synthesized using any suitable procedure, starting from compounds available from commercial suppliers or prepared using the procedures described herein.

[0140] In certain embodiments, reactive functional groups, such as hydroxyl, amino, imino, thio, or carboxy groups, are protected to prevent their undesired participation in the reaction. Protecting groups are used to block some or all of the reactive moieties and prevent such groups from participating in a chemical reaction until the protecting group is removed. In other embodiments, each protecting group can be removed by a different means. Protecting groups that are cleaved under completely different reaction conditions meet the requirement for differential removal.

[0141] In certain embodiments, protecting groups are removed by acid, base, reducing conditions (e.g., hydrogenolysis), and / or oxidative conditions. Groups such as trityl, dimethoxytrityl, acetal, and t-butyldimethylsilyl are acid labile and are used to protect carboxy and hydroxy reactive moieties in the presence of amino groups protected with Cbz groups, which are removable by hydrogenolysis, and amino groups protected with the base-labile Fmoc group. Carboxylic acid and hydroxy reactive moieties are blocked with base-labile groups, including, but not limited to, methyl, ethyl, and acetyl, in the presence of amines blocked with acid-labile groups such as t-butyl carbamate, or amines blocked with carbamates, which are stable to acid and base but removable by hydrolysis.

[0142] In certain embodiments, carboxylic acid and hydroxy reactive moieties are blocked with hydrolytically removable protecting groups such as benzyl groups, while amine groups capable of hydrogen bonding with acids are blocked with base-labile groups such as Fmoc. Carboxylic acid reactive moieties are protected by conversion to simple ester compounds exemplified herein, including conversion to alkyl esters, or blocked with oxidatively removable protecting groups such as 2,4-dimethoxybenzyl, while coexisting amino groups are blocked with fluoride-labile silyl carbamates.

[0143] Allyl blocking groups are useful in the presence of acid- and base-protecting groups because the former are stable and can be subsequently removed by metal or pi-acid catalysts. For example, an allyl-blocked carboxylic acid can be deprotected by a palladium-catalyzed reaction in the presence of acid-labile t-butyl carbamate or base-labile acetate amine protecting groups. Yet another form of protecting group is a resin to which a compound or intermediate is attached. As long as the residue is attached to the resin, the functional group is blocked and cannot react. Once released from the resin, the functional group can react.

[0144] Typically, the blocking / protecting group may be selected from allyl, benzyl (Bn), benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz), N-alkoxycarbonyl (Alloc), methyl (Me), ethyl (Et), tert-butyl (t-Bu), tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS), 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxycarbonyl (Teoc), tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc), paramethoxybenzyl (PMB), triphenylmethyl (trityl), fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (FMOC).

[0145] Detailed descriptions of other protecting groups and applicable techniques for their creation and removal are found in Greene & Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 3rd Ed., John Wiley & Sons, New York, NY, 1999, and Kocienski, Protective Groups, Thieme Verlag, New York, NY, 1994, which are incorporated herein by reference for such disclosures.

[0171] Administration / Dosage / Formulation The dosage regimen may affect what constitutes an effective amount. The therapeutic formulation may be administered to a subject before or after the onset of the disease or disorder. Furthermore, several divided doses and staggered doses may be administered daily or continuously. Alternatively, the dose may be continuously infused or bolus injected. Furthermore, the dosage of the therapeutic formulation may be proportionally increased or decreased as indicated by the exigencies of the therapeutic or prophylactic situation.

[0172] The compositions described herein can be administered to a subject, preferably a mammal, more preferably a human, using known procedures at a dosage and duration effective to treat a disease or disorder in the patient. The effective amount of the therapeutic compound required to achieve a therapeutic effect can vary according to factors such as the state of the disease or disorder in the patient; the age, sex, and weight of the patient; and the ability of the therapeutic compound to treat the disease or disorder in the patient. The dosage regimen can be adjusted to provide an optimal therapeutic response. For example, several divided doses can be administered daily. Alternatively, the dose can be proportionally reduced as indicated by the exigencies of the therapeutic situation. A non-limiting example of an effective dose range for the therapeutic compounds described herein is about 1 and 5,000 mg / kg body weight / day. Those skilled in the art will be able to study the relevant factors and make the determination regarding the effective amount of the therapeutic compound without undue experimentation.

[0173] Actual dosage levels of the active ingredients in the pharmaceutical compositions described herein may be varied to provide an amount of the active ingredient that is effective to achieve the desired therapeutic response for a particular patient, composition, and method of administration without toxicity to the subject.

[0174] In particular, the selected dosage level will depend on a variety of factors, including the activity of the particular compound used, the time of administration, the rate of excretion of the compound, the duration of treatment, other drugs, compounds, or materials used in combination with the compound, the age, sex, weight, condition, general health, and prior medical history of the patient being treated, and similar factors well known in the medical arts.

[0175] A medical doctor, e.g., a physician or veterinarian, having ordinary skill in the art can readily determine the effective amount of the pharmaceutical composition required and prescribe an effective amount of the pharmaceutical composition. For example, the physician or veterinarian could start dosing the compounds described herein used in the pharmaceutical composition at levels lower than those required to achieve the desired therapeutic effect, and gradually increase the dosage until the desired effect is achieved.

[0176] In certain embodiments, it is particularly advantageous to formulate the compound in a unit dosage form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. As used herein, unit dosage form refers to a physically discrete unit suitable for unitary administration to a patient to be treated. Each unit contains a predetermined amount of therapeutic compound calculated to produce a desired therapeutic effect in combination with the required pharmaceutical vehicle. The unit dosage form of the compound described herein is determined by and directly influenced by (a) the unique characteristics of the therapeutic compound and the specific therapeutic effect to be achieved, and (b) the constraints inherent in the field of compounding / formulating such therapeutic compounds.

[0177] In certain embodiments, the compositions described herein are formulated with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients or carriers.In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein comprise a therapeutically effective amount of the compounds described herein and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

[0178] The carrier may be a solvent or dispersion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (e.g., glycerol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol, and the like), suitable mixtures thereof, and vegetable oils. Proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of a coating such as lecithin, by maintaining the required particle size in the case of dispersions, and by the use of surfactants. The activity of microorganisms can be prevented by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, ascorbic acid, thimerosal, and the like. In many cases, it is preferable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, sodium chloride, or polyalcohols such as mannitol and sorbitol, in the composition. Prolonged absorption of injectable compositions can be achieved by including absorption delaying agents, for example, aluminum monostearate and gelatin in the composition.

[0179] In certain embodiments, the compositions described herein are administered to a patient in one to five or more doses per day. In other embodiments, the compositions described herein are administered to a patient in a range of doses, including, but not limited to, once daily, once every two days, once every three days, to once weekly and once every two weeks.

[0191] Sustained-Release Formulations and Drug Delivery Systems In certain embodiments, the formulations described herein may be, but are not limited to, short-acting formulations, rapid-offset formulations, and sustained release formulations, including sustained release formulations, delayed release formulations, and pulsatile release formulations.

[0192] The term sustained release is used in its conventional sense to refer to a drug formulation that gradually releases drug over an extended period of time, which may, but does not necessarily, result in substantially constant blood levels of drug over an extended period of time, which may be as long as a month or more and should result in a longer release than an equivalent amount of drug administered in bolus form.

[0193] For sustained release, the compounds may be formulated with suitable polymeric or hydrophobic materials that impart sustained release properties to the compounds. Thus, the compounds for use with the methods described herein may be administered in the form of microparticles, for example, by injection, or in the form of a wafer or disk by implantation.

[0194] In some cases, the dosage form used can be provided as one or more active ingredients contained in the dosage form that slowly releases or sustained releases, for example, by using hydropropylmethylcellulose, other polymer matrices, gels, dialysis membranes, osmotic systems, multi-layer coatings, microparticles, liposomes or microspheres, or their combinations, which produce desired release profiles in various ratios.Suitable sustained-release formulations known to those skilled in the art, including the sustained-release formulations described herein, can be easily selected for use with the pharmaceutical compositions described herein.Therefore, the single-unit dosage form that is adapted for sustained release and is suitable for oral administration, such as tablets, capsules, gel caps and caplets, are included in the compositions and dosage forms described herein.

[0195] Most sustained-release pharmaceutical products share a common goal of improving drug therapy compared to that achieved by their non-sustained-release counterparts. Ideally, the use of an optimally designed sustained-release preparation during medical treatment is characterized by the use of a minimum amount of active ingredient and the cure or management of the condition in the shortest possible time. Advantages of sustained-release formulations include a longer duration of drug activity, less frequent administration, and increased patient compliance. Furthermore, sustained-release formulations can be used to affect the onset of action or other characteristics of the drug, such as blood levels, and therefore the occurrence of side effects.

[0196] Most sustained-release formulations are designed to initially release an amount of drug that rapidly produces the desired therapeutic effect, and then gradually and continuously release another amount of drug that maintains this level of therapeutic effect over an extended period of time. In order to maintain this constant level of drug in the body, the drug must be released from the dosage form at a rate that will replace the amount of drug being metabolized and excreted from the body.

[0197] The sustained release of active ingredients can be stimulated by various inducers, such as pH, temperature, enzymes, water, or other physiological conditions or compounds.The term "sustained release component" is defined herein as a compound that unintentionally comprises a polymer, a polymer matrix, a gel, a dialysis membrane, a liposome, or a microsphere, or a combination thereof, which facilitates the sustained release of active ingredients.In some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered to patients alone or in combination with other pharmaceutical agents using sustained release formulations.In some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered to patients alone or in combination with other pharmaceutical agents using sustained release formulations.

[0198] The term delayed release is used herein in its conventional sense to refer to a drug formulation that first releases the drug after some delay after the drug is administered, which may include, but is not necessarily, from about 10 minutes to about 12 hours.

[0199] The term pulsatile release is used herein in its conventional sense to refer to a drug formulation that releases drug in a manner that produces a pulsatile plasma profile of the drug after the drug is administered.

[0200] The term immediate release is used in its conventional sense to refer to a drug formulation that releases the drug immediately after administration.

[0201] As used herein, short-term refers to any period of time up to and including about 8 hours, about 7 hours, about 6 hours, about 5 hours, about 4 hours, about 3 hours, about 2 hours, about 1 hour, about 40 minutes, about 20 minutes, or about 10 minutes, and any or all whole or partial increments thereof, after the drug is administered.

[0202] As used herein, rapid off-action refers to any period of time up to and including about 8 hours, about 7 hours, about 6 hours, about 5 hours, about 4 hours, about 3 hours, about 2 hours, about 1 hour, about 40 minutes, about 20 minutes, or about 10 minutes, and any and all whole or partial increments thereof, after the drug is administered.

[0203] dosage The therapeutically effective amount or dose of the compounds described herein depends on the age, sex, weight, current medical condition of the patient, and the progression of the disease or disorder in the patient being treated. Those skilled in the art can determine the appropriate dosage depending on these and other factors.

[0204] A suitable dose of the compound of the present invention may be within the range of about 0.01 mg to about 5,000 mg per day, e.g., about 0.1 mg to about 1,000 mg, e.g., about 1 mg to about 500 mg, e.g., about 5 mg to about 250 mg per day. This dose may be administered in a single dose or in multiple doses, e.g., 1 to 4 or more times per day. When multiple doses are used, the amount of each dose may be the same or different. For example, a 1 mg dose per day may be administered as two 0.5 mg doses, spaced about 12 hours apart.

[0205] It is understood that the amount of compound administered daily may be, for example, administered every day, every other day, every two days, every three days, every four days, or every five days. For example, when administered every other day, a dose of 5 mg per day may be administered starting on Monday, a first dose of 5 mg per subsequent day may be administered on Wednesday, and a second dose of 5 mg per subsequent day may be administered on Friday.

[0206] If the subject's condition improves, optionally, the compound described herein can be continuously administered at the discretion of a physician. Alternatively, the dose of the administered drug can be temporarily reduced or temporarily suspended for a certain period of time (i.e., a "drug holiday"). Optionally, the length of the drug holiday can be from 2 days to 1 year, including, by way of example only, 2 days, 3 days, 4 days, 5 days, 6 days, 7 days, 10 days, 12 days, 15 days, 20 days, 28 days, 35 days, 50 days, 70 days, 100 days, 120 days, 150 days, 180 days, 200 days, 250 days, 280 days, 300 days, 320 days, 350 days, or 365 days. Dose reductions during drug holidays include, by way of example only, 10% to 100%, including 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, and 100%.

[0207] Once the subject's condition has improved, a maintenance dose is administered if necessary. Thereafter, the dosage and / or frequency of administration are reduced to a level at which the improved condition is maintained. In certain embodiments, if symptoms and / or infection recur, the subject will require intermittent treatment on a long-term basis.

[0208] The compounds described herein can be formulated in unit dosage forms. The term "unit dosage form" refers to a physically discrete unit suitable as a unitary administration to a patient undergoing treatment. Each unit contains a predetermined amount of active material calculated to produce a desired therapeutic effect, optionally in association with a suitable pharmaceutical carrier. The unit dosage form may be for a single daily dose or for one of multiple daily doses (e.g., about 1 to 4 or more times per day). When multiple daily doses are used, the unit dosage form may be the same or different for each dose.

[0209] Optionally, LD 50 (the dose that causes death in 50% of the population) and ED 50The toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such treatment regimens are determined in cell cultures or experimental animals, which impractically involves determining the LD (dose therapeutically effective in 50% of the population). The dose ratio between toxic and therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index, and the LD 50 and ED 50 The dosage range for human use is preferably expressed as a ratio of ED . Data obtained from cell culture assays and animal studies are optionally used in formulating a range of dosage for human use. The dosage of such compounds is preferably determined to be within the range of ED . 50 Optionally, the dosage varies within this range depending upon the dosage form employed and the route of administration utilized.

[0214] material and method Materials and Measurements All reactions involving air-sensitive reagents were carried out in anhydrous solvents under a nitrogen atmosphere. Reagents and solvents purchased from commercial suppliers were used as received.

Column chromatography was performed using a Teledyne ISCO CombiFlash system equipped with a silica or C-18 column. NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker Avance III HD 600 MHz spectrometer (at 600 MHz). 1 H NMR) at room temperature. Chemical shifts (δ) were recorded relative to the solvent signal [ 1 H-NMR: reported in parts per million (ppm) relative to DMSO-d (2.50 ppm) and CDCl (7.26 ppm). Signal patterns are reported as s (singlet), d (doublet), dd (double doublet), t (triplet), q (quartet), m (multiplet), and br (broad). Coupling constants (J) are given in Hz.

[0215] Example 1: Novel kinases as therapeutic targets in endometriosis Balanced phosphorylation activity mediated by kinases and phosphatases encoded in the human genome is crucial for regulating intracellular responses to internal and external cues. This balanced kinase and phosphatase activity is crucial for maintaining cellular function and preventing dysregulated cell proliferation. Identifying inhibitors of overactive kinases and phosphatases in cancer is an area of ​​great interest in academic and industrial drug discovery. There are approximately 538 kinases and 200 phosphatases in the human genome, and 73 FDA-approved kinase inhibitors are currently available. In addition to the 73 FDA-approved kinase inhibitors targeting 42 different major kinases, there are hundreds of ongoing clinical trials targeting another 15–20 protein kinases. Therefore, of the 538 known kinases, only approximately 70 kinases are currently targeted for drug inhibition. This indicates that numerous therapeutic opportunities exist through targeting the kinase domain. Furthermore, these FDA-approved kinase inhibitors are often promiscuous, inhibiting multiple related kinases. For example, the pan-NTRK inhibitor entrectinib is a potent 7 nM inhibitor of ROS1 and a 12 nM inhibitor of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). Pexidartinib inhibits FLT3-ITD, KIT, and CSF1R with IC values ​​of 9 nM, 12 nM, and 17 nM, respectively. 50 Ripretinib inhibits at IC values ​​of 3-7 nM. 50 It targets KIT, PDRFα, BRAF, and DDR2 in a range of

[0216] To identify kinases overexpressed in endometriosis, we analyzed a comprehensive database comparing endometrial biopsies from 53 controls with endometriosis subtype lesions from 115 patients (i.e., peritoneal lesions (PeL), ovarian endometriomas (OMA), and deep endometriosis (DiE)). To identify differentially expressed kinases, we analyzed normalized microarray values ​​to identify upregulated (>1.4-fold, p<0.05) kinase-encoding genes and selected those highly expressed across all three subtypes. From this analysis, 20 kinases were identified for validation and therapeutic targeting in endometriosis (Figures 1A-1B).

[0217] Example 2: Identification of NTRK2 as a target kinase for endometriosis NTRK2 is among the kinases identified in the studies described herein and is the target of an FDA-approved small molecule inhibitor (i.e., entrectinib). Thus, NTRK2 is a kinase target with a corresponding FDA-approved inhibitor that can be evaluated as a tool compound for endometriosis.

[0218] NTRK1, NTRK2, and NTRK3 are tyrosine kinase receptors for the extracellular ligands nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived nerve growth factor (BDNF), and neurotrophin 4 (NT-4) and neurotrophin 3 (NT-3), respectively. Furthermore, previous data have demonstrated a risk of on-target adverse events associated with both NTRK1 and NTRK2 due to pharmacologically relevant exposure in the CNS. Therefore, the development of safer, peripherally restricted NTRK2 inhibitors for this non-fatal indication must be considered.

[0219] Western blot analysis revealed that NTRK2 protein levels were higher in endometriotic tissues than in eutopic tissues (Figure 2A). Expression of NTRK2 in lysates from ectopic peritoneal lesions and ovarian endometriomas was higher than that in eutopic normal endometrium (Figures 2B–2G). We also confirmed that siRNA-mediated knockdown of NTRK2 in primary endometriotic stromal cells derived from endometriomas reduced prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)-mediated induction of proinflammatory genes (PTGS2 / COX2, IL6, and IL8) (Figures 2H–2J). Western blot analysis revealed that this NTRK2-mediated reduction in proinflammatory genes also reduced phosphorylation of cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) (Figure 2K).

[0220] Furthermore, by analyzing 36,697 endometriosis cases and 116,071 controls from the FinnGen database, we identified 20 (p<0.001) associations of NTRK2 variants with various subtypes and stages of endometriosis (Figure 3).

[0221] Example 3: Identification of NTRK2 inhibitors To identify NTRK2 selective inhibitors, we used a DNA-Encoded Chemistry Technology (DEC-Tec) strategy. DEC-Tec is a platform for identifying drug-like molecules with high affinity binding to target proteins. The DEC-Tec platform allows for the exploration of chemical space at a greater level than traditional high-throughput screening methods. By using a "split and pool" combinatorial synthesis method, DEC-Tec has developed a 10 9 Up to 10 uniquely encoded compounds can be used to effectively generate screening libraries (Figure 4).

[0222] Parallel selections were performed on 4.25 billion DNA-encoded small molecules using NTRK2, without NTRK2 (i.e., control), or in the presence of the promiscuous kinase inhibitor staurosporine. These selections included kinase-biased molecules. The enrichment of each library member, as measured by normalized z-scores from the selections, was compared. Consistent with competitive ligand binding, a set of compounds was identified that was significantly enriched in the NTRK2-only selection but not in the control or NTRK2 + staurosporine selections.

[0223] Because this NTRK2 hit series had many drug-like features, we selected several tricynthon hits and analogs, including CDD-2262 and its smaller analog, CDD-2330, for synthetic off-DNA for in vitro testing (Figure 5).

[0316] Example 5: Verification of NTRK (NTRK1, NTRK2, and / or NTRK3) activity of selected compounds As described elsewhere herein, hit compounds, including CDD-2262 and its smaller analog, CDD-2330, were subjected to DNA synthesis and evaluated for NTRK2 activity. Selected compounds (i.e., CDD-2299, CDD-2219, CDD-2330, CDD-2262, CDD-2737, and CDD-3032, among others) exhibited low nanomolar potency (IC of 3.7 nM, 13 nM, 3.5 nM, 32 nM, 2.3 nM, and 6.1 nM, respectively). 50 ; see Table 2), and were also able to penetrate the cell membrane and induce effects in a NanoBRET assay (Figures 6A-6B).

[0317] The inhibitory properties of selected compounds of the present disclosure against NTRK1, NTRK2, and NTRK3 were analyzed (Table 2). Additionally, the apparent inhibitory constants (K i app ) was calculated (Table 3). 50 Compounds with a ≥ 10,000 nM were considered inactive herein.

[0319] Table 3. Apparent NTRK2 inhibition constants (K i app )data TIFF2025532184000305.tif22146

[0320] Example 6: Verification of NTRK2 specificity of CDD-2330 To broadly evaluate the kinome-wide selectivity of CDD-2330, we used the KINOMEscan profiling platform (Figure 7A). At a concentration of 1 μM, CDD-2330 demonstrated high specificity for NTRK, with MAP3K19 being the only potential off-target. Further dose-response evaluation of CDD-2330 in the ThermoFisher Z'-LYTE assay (Figure 7B) revealed that CDD-2330 binds to NTRK with single-digit nanomolar activity (IC). 50 : 1.2-3.8 nM), MAP3K19 (IC 50 It was confirmed that it showed >100-fold selectivity compared to the α-glucan (401 nM).

[0321] Similarly, the selectivity of CDD-3031 for NTRK kinases was assessed in a kinase occupancy assay (Promega K192 cell-based NanoBRET assay) using 192 kinases (Table 4). In this assay, CDD-3031 was delivered at 1 μM and showed significant selectivity for NTRK2 and NTRK1, confirming the findings in Table 2.

[0323] Example 7: Pharmacokinetic data of compounds of the present disclosure Previous data have demonstrated the risk of on-target adverse events associated with NTRK1 and NTRK2 due to pharmacologically relevant exposure in the central nervous system. Both FDA-approved small molecule pan-NTRK inhibitors (i.e., entrectinib and larotrectinib) have been shown to cross the blood-brain barrier, which is considered a major problem in the treatment of endometriosis, a non-fatal condition. Therefore, in certain non-limiting embodiments, peripherally restricted NTRK-specific inhibitors with novel chemotypes are a safer option and hold great potential for the treatment of both inflammation and pain associated with endometriosis.

[0324] CDD-2262 was shown to be a metabolically stable compound using mouse and human liver microsomes in vitro, whereas (t 1 / 2 >7 hr), the analog CDD-2330 was found to be even more stable (t 1 / 2 >25 hr) (Table 5). Certain pharmacokinetic properties (eg, clearance) of the exemplary compound CDD-3031 are further provided herein (Tables 6-7 and Figures 8A-8B).

[0325] Taken together, the data demonstrate that the compounds described herein are potent, metabolically stable, and NTRK-specific compounds.

[0328] Table 7. Exemplary pharmacokinetic data for CDD-3031 (n=3, mean±SD) TIFF2025532184000309.tif69146

[0329] CDD-2330 brain uptake was low (brain:plasma ratio of 0.31 at 4 hours) compared to antidepressants such as atomextine (brain:plasma ratio of 20 at 4 hours) (Figure 9A), and testis uptake was also low (testis:plasma ratio of 0.31 at 4 hours) (Figure 9B). Similarly, CDD-3031 brain uptake was relatively low compared to chlorpromazine (positive control) but high compared to hydroxyzine (negative control) (Figures 10A-10C).

[0330] Table 8. Exemplary brain uptake data for certain compounds TIFF2025532184000310.tif32146

[0331] Furthermore, analysis of potential liver and other tissue toxicity following high doses of certain exemplary compounds, including CDD-2330 and CDD-3031 (i.e., 50 mg / kg), shows minimal effects (Tables 9-10).

[0332] Table 9. Evaluation of potential liver and other tissue toxicity in mice treated with high doses of CDD-2330 a TIFF2025532184000311.tif42146 a Plasma ALT and AST levels were assessed 48 hours after oral administration of 50 mg / kg CDD-2330 to mice (n=4).

[0333] Table 10. Evaluation of potential liver and other tissue toxicity in mice treated with high doses of CDD-3031 a TIFF2025532184000312.tif49146 a Plasma ALT and AST levels were assessed 24 hours after administering 50 mg / kg CDD-3031 to mice by oral gavage.

[0334] Furthermore, initial pharmacokinetic analysis of orally administered CDD-2330 demonstrated rapid elimination from the blood, which may be at least partially due to metabolism ( FIG. 11A ). Thus, the present disclosure indicates that CDD-2330 and its analogs may be safer, peripherally restricted pan-NTRK inhibitors for treating endometriosis and multiple cancers.

[0335] In certain embodiments, compounds of the present invention containing a carboxyl group at the 3-position of the pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine scaffold have potent NTRK1, NTRK2, and / or NTRK3 activity. In certain embodiments, replacing the carboxyl functionality at the 3-position of the pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine scaffold with any of a number of substituents, including non-realistically halogens, amidines, N-hydroxyamidines, and N-hydroxyamides (e.g., Weinreb amides), improves the pharmacokinetic properties of the compound. Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that replacing the carboxylic acid group with any of a number of substituents improves the pharmacokinetics of the compound by reducing glucuronidation.

[0336] Example 8: CDD-2330 administration leads to downregulation of inflammation-related markers in endometriotic cells Estrogen, produced by the ovaries and endometriotic lesions, is a key molecule that induces BDNF / NT3 secretion from macrophages and proinflammatory signaling from nerve fibers (Figure 12A). This signaling mechanism exacerbates the proinflammatory state in endometriotic lesions, promoting nerve fiber growth and pain. At the cellular level, PGE2 and BDNF / NT-3 signaling have been shown to stimulate PTGS2 expression via the phosphorylation and activation of CREB (Figure 12B). Furthermore, inhibiting NTRK2 with siRNA attenuates the expression of proinflammatory genes.

[0337] Preliminary studies with CDD-2262 (i.e., a CDD-2330 analog) demonstrated that NTRK2 inhibition statistically suppressed prostaglandin-endoperoxidase synthase 2 (PTGS2) mRNA at concentrations >100 nM over a 6-hour period (FIG. 12C). Thus, the present disclosure provides evidence that CDD-2330 administration suppresses inflammation-related markers and is therefore suitable for the treatment of endometriosis.

[0338] Example 9: Exemplary data for certain NTRK2 inhibitors in endometriosis mouse models In one aspect, the present disclosure provides exemplary data relating to the administration of NTRK2 inhibitors in endometriosis mouse models (Figure 14).In certain embodiments, 14 days after intraperitoneal injection of donor mouse endometrium, recipient mice are administered NTRK2 inhibitors and / or controls.In certain embodiments, recipient mice are sacrificed and quantitatively evaluated on the 28th day.

[0339] This disclosure provides exemplary data demonstrating that administration of CDD-2737 to a mouse model of endometriosis resulted in a reduction in the number and size of lesions compared to controls (Figures 15A-15E). Furthermore, CDD-2737 administration did not show any gross effects on the liver and / or kidneys (Figures 16A-16B) or potential liver or other tissue toxicity (Table 11).

[0340] Table 11. Evaluation of potential liver and other tissue toxicity in mice treated with 10 mg / kg / day CDD-2737 for 14 days TIFF2025532184000313.tif117146

[0341] The present disclosure further demonstrates the robust efficacy of NTRK inhibitors (e.g., CDD-3132) for inhibiting endometriotic lesion growth in mice (Figure 17A). In certain embodiments, a decrease in endometriotic lesion size was observed with administration of CDD-3132 (10 mg / kg) compared to vehicle control (Figures 17B-17C). In certain embodiments, a decrease in lesion area, lesion volume, and lesion mass was observed with administration of CDD-3132, CDD-3119, CDD-3132, and PF-06273340 (10 mg / kg) compared to vehicle control (Figures 17D-17F).

[0342] The present disclosure further demonstrates, for example, that administration of CDD-3132 (10 mg / kg) reduces proliferation, angiogenesis, macrophage infiltration, and / or inflammation within endometriotic lesions (FIGS. 18A-18B).

[0343] The present disclosure further demonstrates the efficacy of certain NTRK inhibitors, including, by way of non-limiting examples, CDD-3031, CDD-3119, CDD-3132, and PF-06273340 (10 mg / kg), to inhibit endometriotic lesion growth in mice (Figure 19).

[0344] The present disclosure further demonstrates that certain NTRK2 inhibitors, including by way of non-limiting examples CDD-3031, CDD-3119, CDD-3132, and PF-0672 (10 mg / kg), have little to no effect on liver and / or kidney weight and / or serum ALT and AST elevation in mice bearing endometriotic lesions (Figures 20A-20B and Table 12).
