Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates generally to cancer therapy, and more specifically to the synthesis of covalent inhibitors of the YAP / TAZ-TEAD oncoprotein and their use for the treatment of cancer. [Background technology]
[0002] background TEA domain transcription factors (TEAD proteins) are effectors of oncogenic YAP / TAZ signaling in cancers where Hippo tumor suppressor pathway signaling is deregulated. Interactions between Yes1 Associated Transcriptional Regulator (YAP1, also known as YAP), the YAP transcriptional coactivator paralog WW domain-containing Transcription Regulator 1 (WWTR1, also known as TAZ), and TEAD proteins have been demonstrated both in vitro and in vivo. In both cases, protein interactions lead to increased TEAD transcriptional activity and expression of genes involved in proliferation, survival, angiogenesis, and other hallmarks of cancer. In normal tissues, intact Hippo signaling via MST1 / 2 and LATS1 / 2 kinases results in the phosphorylation, cytoplasmic sequestration, and proteasomal degradation of YAP / TAZ. Inactivation of Hippo signaling as a result of somatic mutations in NF2, MST, or LATS stabilizes YAP / TAZ, leading to its nuclear translocation, association with TEAD, and activation of TEAD target genes. Genomic amplification of YAP / TAZ or gene fusions resulting in constitutively active YAP / TAZ are alternative mechanisms of Hippo pathway deregulation. Furthermore, activation of YAP / TAZ signaling has been described as a mechanism of resistance to other targeted cancer therapies, such as inhibitors of EGFR and MEK.
[0003] Therefore, inhibitors of TEAD1, 2, 3, and / or 4 may have great potential in cancer therapeutic applications, both as monotherapy and in combination with other targeted agents, in cancers where Hippo pathway signaling is deregulated. Summary of the Invention

[0015] Detailed Description The present disclosure is based on the discovery of a class of small molecule compounds that inhibit the activity of TEAD1, 2, 3, and / or 4, and in some embodiments, selectively inhibit the activity of TEAD1 relative to the activity of other TEAD isoforms, which show potential in the treatment of cancer, in some embodiments, certain types of cancer. TEAD1 belongs to the TEAD family, which regulates cell growth and proliferation via the TEAD1 / YAP / TAZ complex. TEAD1 regulates glioblastoma stemness and invasiveness by regulating the expression of EGFR and AQP4 via the TEAD-EGFR / AQP4 pathway. Furthermore, through the Hippo-YAP / TAZ-TEAD pathway, YAP / TAZ-TEAD activation induces the transcription of cell cycle-promoting genes; TEAD1 controls the expression of cytoskeleton remodeling genes; TEAD1 increases the expression of other transcription factors such as Myc and SP1; the YAP / TAZ-TEAD1 axis controls cell apoptosis; blocking TEAD1 aberrant activity downregulates the expression of genes such as MYC, KRAS, BRAF, NF2, LKB1, and PD-L1. Consequently, inhibitor compounds that inhibit the activity of TEAD1, 2, 3, and / or 4 (in some embodiments, selectively for TEAD1) have potential in the treatment of cancers such as glioblastoma, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), and malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM).

Geometric isomers include cis-trans isomers or configurational isomers, and refer to pairs of molecules that have the same formula but whose functional groups are in different orientations in three-dimensional space. Cis-trans stereoisomers may contain non-rotatable double bonds or ring structures that restrict or prevent bond rotation. Cis indicates that the functional groups (substituents) are on the same side of a plane, while trans indicates that they are on opposite (transverse) sides. Atropisomers are stereoisomers resulting from hindrance of rotation around a single bond, where the steric strain barrier to rotation is high enough to allow for isolation of conformers. In some or any embodiment, the stereoisomers are geometric isomers. In some or any embodiment, the stereoisomers are enantiomers. In some or any embodiment, the stereoisomers are enantiomers and geometric isomers.
[0051] The term "substantially free" of stereoisomers (e.g., geometric isomers) or "in the substantial absence" of stereoisomers, with respect to compositions, refers to a composition that comprises at least 85% or 90% by weight, and in some or any embodiments 95%, 98%, 99%, or 100% by weight of the specified stereoisomer (e.g., geometric isomer) of the compound in the composition.

[0150] Isomers and Optically Active Compounds It will be recognized that the compounds provided herein have several chiral centers and can exist and be isolated as optically active and racemic forms.It is understood that any racemic, optically active, diastereoisomer, geometric isomer, tautomer, or other stereoisomer, mixture, or combination thereof of the compounds provided herein that have the useful properties described herein are within the scope of the present invention.How to prepare optically active forms (in some or any embodiments, by resolving racemic forms by recrystallization techniques, synthesis from optically active starting materials, chiral synthesis, or chromatographic separation using chiral stationary phases) is well known in the art.
[0151] In some or any embodiments, methods for obtaining optically active materials (in some embodiments, compounds that are substantially pure, or that are "substantially free" of, or "in the substantial absence" of, unspecified isomers) are known in the art and include at least the following: i) Physical separation of crystals - a technique for manually separating macroscopic crystals of individual stereoisomers. This technique can be used when crystals of separate stereoisomers are present, i.e. the material is a conglomerate and the crystals are visually separate. ii) Simultaneous crystallization - a technique in which separate stereoisomers are crystallized separately from a solution of the racemate, possibly only if the latter are a conglomerate in the solid state. iii) Enzymatic resolution - a technique in which the racemate is partially or completely separated by the difference in the rate of reaction of the stereoisomers with an enzyme. iv) Enzymatic Asymmetric Synthesis - A synthetic technique in which at least one step of the synthesis uses an enzymatic reaction to obtain a stereomerically pure or stereomerically enriched synthetic precursor of a desired stereoisomer. v) Chemical asymmetric synthesis - a synthetic technique, feasible using chiral catalysts or chiral auxiliaries, in which a desired stereoisomer is synthesized from an achiral precursor under conditions that result in asymmetry (i.e., chirality) in the product. vi) Diastereomeric separation - a technique in which a racemate is reacted with an enantiomerically pure reagent (chiral auxiliary) that converts the individual enantiomers into diastereomers. The resulting diastereomers are then separated by chromatography or crystallization due to their now more distinct structural differences, after which the chiral auxiliary is removed to give the desired enantiomer. vii) First and second order asymmetric transformations - techniques in which the diastereomers derived from the racemate are equilibrated so that the diastereomer derived from the desired enantiomer predominates in solution, or the equilibrium is broken by preferential crystallization of the diastereomer derived from the desired enantiomer, ultimately converting essentially all of the material to the crystalline diastereomer derived from the desired enantiomer, followed by release of the desired enantiomer from the diastereomer. viii) Kinetic Resolution - This technique refers to achieving partial or complete resolution of a racemate (or further resolution of a partially resolved compound) due to the heterogeneity of the reaction rates of stereoisomers with chiral non-racemic reagents or catalysts under kinetic conditions. ix) Stereospecific synthesis from non-racemic precursors - A synthetic technique in which the desired stereoisomer is obtained from non-chiral starting materials and the stereochemical integrity is not or only minimally compromised during the synthetic process. x) Chiral liquid chromatography - a technique in which stereoisomers of a racemate are separated in a liquid mobile phase by differential interaction with a stationary phase. The stationary phase may be made of a chiral material, and the mobile phase may contain an additional chiral material that induces the differential interaction. xi) Chiral gas chromatography - a technique in which the racemate is volatilized and the stereoisomers are separated by their differential interaction with a column containing a stationary non-racemic chiral adsorbent phase in a gaseous mobile phase. xii) Chiral solvent extraction - a technique in which stereoisomers are separated by preferential dissolution of one stereoisomer in a particular chiral solvent. xiii) Transport across chiral membranes - a technique in which a racemate is contacted with a thin membrane barrier. The barrier typically separates two miscible fluids, one of which contains the racemate, and a driving force such as a concentration or pressure difference causes preferential transport across the membrane barrier. Separation occurs as a result of the non-racemic chiral properties of the membrane, which allows only one stereoisomer of the racemate to pass through.
[0152] In some or any embodiments, compositions of compounds are provided that contain a substantially pure specific stereoisomer (e.g., enantiomer, diastereomer) of the compound. In some or any embodiments, in the methods and compounds disclosed herein, the compound is substantially free of other stereoisomers (e.g., enantiomers, diastereomers) and / or geometric isomers. In some or any embodiments, the composition contains at least 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, 99%, or 100% by weight of a compound that is a specific compound, with the remainder containing other chemical species, geometric isomers, and / or stereoisomers thereof (e.g., enantiomers, diastereomers).
[0153] Isotopically enriched compounds Isotopically enriched compounds are also provided herein.
[0154] As used herein, the term "isotopic composition" refers to the amount of each isotope present in a given atom, unless otherwise specified, and "natural isotope composition" refers to the composition or abundance ratio of natural isotopes for a given atom.In this specification, atoms that contain natural isotope composition are also referred to as "non-enriched" atoms.Unless otherwise specified, atoms of compounds described herein are intended to represent any stable isotope of the atom.For example, unless otherwise specified, when a position is specifically designated as "H" or "hydrogen", it is understood that the position has hydrogen in its natural isotope composition.
[0155] The term "isotopic enrichment" as used herein, unless otherwise specified, refers to the proportion of a certain amount of a specific isotope incorporated into a given atom in a molecule at the natural isotopic abundance of that atom.In some or any embodiment, a deuterium enrichment of 1% at a given position means that 1% of the molecules in a given sample contain deuterium at a given position.Since the natural distribution of deuterium is about 0.0156%, the deuterium enrichment at any position in a compound synthesized using non-enriched starting materials is about 0.0156%.The isotopic enrichment of the compounds provided herein can be determined using conventional analytical methods known to those skilled in the art, including mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
[0156] As used herein, the term "isotopically enriched," unless otherwise specified, means that an atom has an isotopic composition other than the natural isotopic composition of that atom. "Isotopically enriched" can also mean that a compound contains at least one atom that has an isotopic composition other than the natural isotopic composition of that atom.
[0157] Isotopic enrichment (in some or any embodiments, deuteration) of drugs to improve pharmacokinetics ("PK"), pharmacodynamics ("PD"), and toxicity profiles has previously been demonstrated for several classes of drugs. See, for example, Lijinsky et al., Food Cosmet. Toxicol., 20: 393 (1982); Lijinsky et al., J. Nat. Cancer Inst., 69: 1127 (1982); Mangold et al., Mutation Res. 308: 33 (1994); Gordon et al., Drug Metab. Dispos., 15: 589 (1987); Zello et al., Metabolism, 43: 487 (1994); Gately et al., J. Nucl. Med., 27: 388 (1986); Wade D, Chem. Biol. Interact. 117: 191 (1999).
[0158] In some or any embodiments, isotopic enrichment of a drug can be used to (1) reduce or eliminate undesirable metabolites, (2) increase the half-life of the parent drug, (3) decrease the number of administrations required to achieve a desired effect, (4) decrease the dosage required to achieve a desired effect, (5) increase the formation of active metabolites, if any, and / or (6) decrease the production of harmful metabolites in specific tissues and / or create more effective and / or safer drugs for combination therapy, whether the combination therapy is intended or not.
[0159] In many cases, replacing an atom with one of its isotopes will change the reaction rate of chemical reactions.This phenomenon is known as kinetic isotope effect ("KIE").For example, if a C-H bond is broken during the rate-determining step (i.e., the step that shows the highest transition state energy) in a chemical reaction, replacing this hydrogen with deuterium will reduce the reaction rate and slow down the process.This phenomenon is known as deuterium kinetic isotope effect ("DKIE").See, for example, Foster et al., Adv. Drug Res., vol. 14, pp. 1-36 (1985); Kushner et al., Can. J. Physiol. Pharmacol., vol. 77, pp. 79-88 (1999).
[0160] The magnitude of the DKIE can be expressed as the ratio between the rate of a given reaction in which a C-H bond is broken and the rate of the same reaction in which hydrogen is replaced by deuterium. The DKIE can range from about 1 (no isotope effect) to very large numbers, such as 50 or more. That is, when hydrogen is replaced by deuterium, the reaction can be 50 times slower or more. High DKIE values can be due, in part, to a phenomenon known as tunneling, which is a consequence of the uncertainty principle. Tunneling occurs because of the small mass of the hydrogen atom, allowing transition states involving protons to sometimes form without requiring activation energy. Deuterium, due to its greater mass, is statistically much less likely to undergo this phenomenon than hydrogen.
[0161] Tritium ("T") is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen used in research, fusion reactors, neutron generators, and radiopharmaceuticals. Tritium is a hydrogen atom with two neutrons in its nucleus and an atomic weight close to 3. Tritium occurs naturally in the environment at very low concentrations and is most commonly found as TO. Tritium decays slowly (half-life = 12.3 years) and emits low-energy beta particles that cannot penetrate the outer layer of human skin. Internal exposure is the primary risk factor associated with this isotope, but large doses are required to pose significant health risks. The amount of tritium that must be consumed to reach harmful levels is less than that of deuterium. Substituting tritium ("T") for hydrogen results in a stronger bond than deuterium, resulting in more isotope effects. Similarly, other elements can be substituted for carbon. 13 C or 14 C, for sulfur 33 S, 34 S, or 36 S, for nitrogen 15 N and oxygen 17 O or 18 Substitution with isotopes including, but not limited to, O can result in similar kinetic isotope effects.
[0162] For example, DKIEs have been used to reduce the hepatotoxicity of halothane, presumably by limiting the production of reactive species such as trifluoroacetyl chloride. However, this method may not be applicable to all drug classes. For example, deuterium incorporation can result in metabolic switching. The concept of metabolic switching proposes that xenogens, when captured by phase I enzymes, can temporarily bind and rebind in various conformations before chemical reaction (e.g., oxidation). This hypothesis is supported by the relatively large size of the binding pockets in many phase I enzymes and the random nature of many metabolic reactions. Metabolic switching can potentially produce different ratios of known and entirely new metabolites. This new metabolic profile can confer some or all of the toxicity.
[0163] In some embodiments, the compounds described herein may be used as radiopharmaceuticals, such as imaging agents. For example, the radiopharmaceutical is a positron emission tomography (PET) imaging agent. In such embodiments, the atom in the compound is replaced with a radionuclide (e.g., a positron-emitting isotope), thereby enabling the synthesis of a radiopharmaceutical that can function as an imaging agent. In some embodiments, the radionuclide that can be replaced in the compounds described herein includes: 18 F, 11 C. 13 N, 15 O. 76 Br, and 124 In some embodiments, the compound is isotopically enriched at one or more atoms, one atom, two atoms, or three atoms. In some embodiments, the compound is administered as an isotopic composition.
[0164] The animal body expresses various enzymes for the purpose of excreting foreign substances, such as therapeutic agents, from the circulatory system. In some or any embodiments, such enzymes include cytochrome P450 enzymes ("CYP"), esterases, proteases, reductases, dehydrogenases, and monoamine oxidases, which react with the foreign substances and convert them into highly polar intermediates or metabolites for renal excretion. Some of the most common metabolic reactions of pharmaceutical compounds involve the oxidation of carbon-hydrogen (CH) bonds to carbon-oxygen (CO) bonds or carbon-carbon (CC) π bonds. The resulting metabolites may be stable or unstable under physiological conditions and may have substantially different pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties, as well as acute and long-term toxicity profiles, compared to the parent compound. For many drugs, such oxidation is rapid. Therefore, these drugs often require multiple doses or high daily doses.
[0165] Thus, isotopic enrichment at specific positions in the compounds provided herein results in detectable KIEs that affect the pharmacokinetic, pharmacological, and / or toxicity profiles of the compounds provided herein compared to similar compounds with natural isotopic compositions.

[0194] Formulations for use according to the present disclosure include those suitable for oral, nasal, topical (including buccal and sublingual), rectal, vaginal, and / or parenteral administration. The formulations may conveniently be presented in unit dosage form and may be prepared by any method well known in the art of pharmacy. The amount of active ingredient which can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will vary depending upon the host treated and the particular mode of administration. The amount of active ingredient which can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will generally be that amount of the compound which produces a therapeutic effect. Generally, this amount will range from about 1% to about 99% of the active ingredient. In some embodiments, this amount will range from about 5% to about 70%, about 10% to about 50%, or about 20% to about 40%.
[0195] In certain embodiments, the formulations described herein comprise an excipient selected from the group consisting of cyclodextrins, liposomes, micelle-forming agents, e.g., bile acids, and polymeric carriers, e.g., polyesters and polyanhydrides, and a compound of the present disclosure (including those according to any of Formulas (I), (II), any embodiment herein, and Compounds 1-106). In certain embodiments, the formulations described above render the compounds described of the present disclosure (including those according to any of Formulas (I), (II), any embodiment herein, and Compounds 1-106) orally bioavailable.
[0196] Methods of preparing formulations or compositions comprising the described compounds (including those according to any of Formula (I), (II), any embodiment herein, and Compounds 1-106) include the step of bringing into association a compound of the present disclosure (including those according to any of Formula (I), (II), any embodiment herein, and Compounds 1-106) with the carrier and, optionally, one or more accessory ingredients. In general, the formulations may be prepared by uniformly and intimately bringing into association a compound of the present disclosure (including those according to Formula (I), (II), any embodiment herein, and Compounds 1-106) with liquid carriers, or finely divided solid carriers, or both, and then, if necessary, shaping the product.
[0197] The pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of a sterile injectable preparation, for example, a sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspension. This suspension may be formulated according to techniques known in the art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents (e.g., Tween 80, etc.) and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterally acceptable diluent or solvent, for example, as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be used are mannitol, water, Ringer's solution, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. Additionally, sterile fixed oils are conventionally used as solvents or suspending media. For this purpose, any bland fixed oil may be used, including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. Fatty acids, such as oleic acid and its glyceride derivatives, are useful in the preparation of injectables, as are natural pharmaceutically acceptable oils, such as olive oil or castor oil, especially in their polyoxyethylated forms. These oil solutions or suspensions may also contain long-chain alcohol diluents or dispersants, such as those described in the Pharmacopeia Helvetica, or similar alcohols. Other commonly used surfactants, such as Tween, Span, and other emulsifiers or bioavailability enhancers commonly used in the manufacture of pharmaceutically acceptable solid, liquid, or other dosage forms, may also be used for formulation purposes.
[0198] In some cases, in order to prolong the effect of drugs, it may be desirable to delay the absorption of drugs from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection.This can be achieved by using a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous material with poor water solubility.The absorption rate of drug then depends on its dissolution rate, which in turn depends on crystal size and crystalline form.Alternatively, the delayed absorption of parenterally administered drug forms can be achieved by dissolving or suspending the drug in oil vehicle.
[0199] Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of the described compounds (including those according to any of Formulas (I), (II), any embodiment herein, and Compounds 1-106) in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. Depending on the ratio of drug to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer employed, the rate of drug release can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot injectable formulations are also prepared by entrapping the drug in liposomes or microemulsions that are compatible with body tissues.
[0200] The pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure can be orally administered in any orally acceptable dosage form, including but not limited to capsules, tablets, and aqueous suspensions and solutions.For oral tablets, commonly used carriers include lactose and corn starch.Lubricants such as magnesium stearate are also typically added.For oral administration in capsule form, useful diluents include lactose and dried corn starch.For oral administration of aqueous suspensions, solutions, and propylene glycol, the active ingredient is combined with emulsifiers and suspending agents.If desired, certain sweeteners and / or flavorings and / or colorings can be added.
