Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] (Cross-reference of related applications) This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 454,438, filed on 24 March 2023, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

[0002] (Technical field) This disclosure relates to 3H-pyrazolo[4,3-f]quinoline compounds that are interferon gene-stimulating factor (STING) inhibitors, and their use for treating or suppressing STING-related diseases, such as inflammatory diseases, as well as responses to injuries such as cardiac trauma, trauma, and brain injury. [Background technology]

[0003] This section presents aspects that may aid in a deeper understanding of this disclosure. Therefore, these statements should be interpreted in this context and not as an admission or denial of prior art.

[0004] Activation of innate immunity is crucial for initiating a rapid response to adverse events (e.g., pathogenic infection or cytotoxicity). Recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) or damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) by pattern recognition receptors enables downstream activation, inducing the expression of inflammatory cytokines (e.g., type 1 interferon, nuclear factor kappa-beta (NF-κβ), and other cytokines such as interleukin 1 and 6). These cytokines play a vital role in T cell priming and activation. As a signaling motif indicating cytotoxicity or invasion by a DNA-containing pathogen, cytoplasmic double-stranded DNA is recognized by the DNA sensor cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)3, which catalyzes the formation of a phosphodiester bond between adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and guanosine triphosphate (GTP), thereby initiating the production of 2'-3' cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP). The binding of cGAMP to the universal cyclic dinucleotide sensor protein IFN gene stimulator (STING) leads to the recruitment of Tank-binding kinase I (TBK1), which, via phosphorylation, activates the transcription factor interferon regulator 3 (IRF3). Following IRF3 activation and translocation to the nucleus, IRF3 acts as a transcription activator that strongly induces type 1 interferons, and is crucial for initiating a proper immune response to pathogen invasion, as illustrated in Figure 1.

[0005] The cGAS-STING pathway plays a crucial role in protecting higher organisms from pathogen or cancer invasion by promoting the production of cytokines and interferons. While cGAS-STING activation has beneficial aspects, abnormal activity and dysfunction of this pathway have been shown to lead to chronic upregulation of cytokine expression and play a significant role in the progression of chronic autoimmune diseases. Structural activation of STING by gain-of-function (GOF) mutations plays a significant role in the progression of wasting diseases (e.g., infant-onset STING-associated vasculitis (SAVI)) characterized by prominent vascular lesions and symptoms such as pneumonia. Activated STING is believed to play a crucial role in the exacerbation of various conditions (e.g., traumatic brain injury, diabetic nephropathy, and colitis).

[0006] On the other hand, cytoplasmic nucleic acid clearance dysfunction plays a major role in the onset and progression of other autoimmune diseases (e.g., Ecardi-Goutier syndrome (AGS)), such as loss of function of the TREX1 exonuclease, which leads to DNA accumulation and chronic cGAS-STING activation. With increasing evidence suggesting the involvement of the cGAS-STING pathway in various inflammatory diseases, STING has gained significant attention as an attractive target for improving associated symptoms of these autoimmune diseases (European Journal Medicinal Chemistry, 2019, 182, 111591; Frontiers in Immunology, 2022, 13, 5232). STING antagonists may play a significant role in addressing various inflammatory diseases. STING agonists may be used as immunotherapies.

[0007] To date, only a few small molecule STING inhibitors have been identified, and these are primarily based on cell-based quantification methods for downstream cytokines (e.g., interferon-β) in the cGAS-STING pathway. This, like the previous discoveries of STING antagonists (e.g., C-176, H-151, and AstinC), was obtained via either reporter cell bioassays or basic strategies (e.g., quantification of cytokine mRNA expression via quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) analysis) (see Figure 2) (Nature 2018, 559, 269-273; Cell Rep 2018, 25, 3405-3421; Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 2021; 118, 24; ACS Med Chem Lett 2019; 10: 92-97).

[0008] Therefore, there is a need to develop compounds that strongly bind to and inhibit STING. The object of this disclosure is to provide such compounds. This object, as well as other objects and advantages, and features of the invention will be apparent from this specification. [Prior art documents] [Non-patent literature]

[0023] The above and other purposes, features, and advantages of this disclosure will become clear when read in conjunction with the drawings.

[0024] [Figure 1] Figure 1 shows the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-interferon gene stimulating factor (cGAS-STING) activation pathway. [Figure 2] Figure 2 shows the structures of small molecules (e.g., H-151, C-178, Astin-C, SN-011, and C-18) that have been reported to act as STING antagonists. [Figure 3] Figure 3 shows probe substitution with STING binders. A) The structure of the Fc-di-GMP probe is illustrated. B) A schematic diagram shows the use of the developed FP assay for another purpose, specifically for screening promising low-molecular-weight STING binders that competitively replace Fc-di-GMP. [Figure 4A] Figure 4A shows the synthesis of quinoline compounds using a Doebner-Povarov type multicomponent reaction and the structure of compound HSD1077. [Figure 4B]Figure 4B shows a plot illustrating the anisotropy of compound HSD1077 with respect to concentration, representing dose-dependent competitive probe substitution. The probe and STING concentrations used were 50 nM and 10 μM, respectively. [Figure 5A] Figure 5A shows the ring A-modified analog, whose STING binding was tested via the STING-FP assay. [Figure 5B] Figure 5B shows the proportion of probes bound to STING after incubation with the listed drug compounds (Fbound). The fluorescent dye -c-di-GMP was used at a concentration of 50 nM, and STING at a concentration of 10 μM. All compounds (e.g., ADU-S100, DIABZI-3, compound HSD1077) were used at a concentration of 20 μM. [Figure 6A] Figure 6A shows an analog modified with cyclohexyl ring B, whose STING binding was tested via the STING-FP assay. [Figure 6B] Figure 6B shows the proportion of probes bound to STING after incubation with drug compounds (e.g., ADU-S100, DIABZI-3, and compound HSD1077) (Fbound). [Figure 7A] Figure 7A shows ring-C modified analogs whose STING binding was tested via the STING-FP assay. [Figure 7B] Figure 7B shows the fbound percentage of probes bound to STING after incubation with drug compounds (e.g., ADU-S100, DIABZI-3, and compound HSD1077). The fluorescent dye-c-di-GMP was used at a concentration of 50 nM, and STING at a concentration of 10 μM. Compounds ADU-S100, DIABZI-3, and HSD1077 were used at a concentration of 20 μM. [Figure 8A]Figure 8A shows that when RAW interferon-stimulated gene (ISG) Blue was treated with compound HSD1077 for 24 hours, no significant change in interferon expression concentration was observed. When pre-treated with compound HSD1077 and then cGAMP induction was performed, type 1 interferon expression decreased in a dose-dependent manner. [Figure 8B] Figure 8B shows the results of pre-treating raw ISG cells with either compound HSD1077 or compound H-151 (as a positive control) for 6 hours, followed by stimulation with 100 μM cGAMP for 3 hours to induce interferon-β. mRNA concentrations were quantified by RT-PCR. Gene expression was normalized with β-actin. The experiment was performed with two biological replicates. Error bars indicate the mean error of the two independent experiments. [Figure 9] Figure 9 shows that compound HSD1077 reduces STING and IRF3 phosphorylation in raw ISG cells. Raw ISG cells were treated with 5 μM compound HSD1077 or 1 μM compound H151 for 4 hours, followed by treatment with 100 μM cGAMP for 3 hours. Control cells were treated with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and sterile water. p-STING and p-IRF3 concentrations were analyzed by Western blotting. The experiment was performed in two biological replicas. [Figure 10A] Figure 10A shows that when THP-1 dual monocytes and human cells were pre-treated with the compound HSD1077 for 2 hours and then stimulated with 2'-3'cGAMP for 24 hours to induce interferon, interferon expression decreased in a dose-dependent manner. [Figure 10B] Figure 10B shows that when human THP-1 dual (KI STING N154S) cells with a gain-of-function point mutation were treated with the compound HSD1077, the interferon expression level decreased after 24 hours of incubation. [Figure 11]Figure 11 shows that when THP-1 Dual (KI STING N154S) cells with a gain-of-function point mutation were treated with the compound, the interferon expression level decreased after 24 hours of incubation. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0025] To further understand the principles of this disclosure, embodiments shown in the drawings will be referred to and described here using specific terminology. However, it will be understood that this is not intended to limit the scope of the claims.

[0026] The term "STING" (also known as MITA, MPYS, ERIS, and TMEM173) refers to an adapter protein functionally activated by interferon-stimulating or IFN-stimulating factors, cyclic dinucleotides, which result in the production of interferons and inflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNF, IL-1, IL-6, IFNγ, type 1 interferon (IFN), and nuclear factor kappa-beta (NF-κβ)).

[0027] This disclosure is based, at least in part, on the discovery that the 3H-pyrazolo[4,3-f]quinoline moiety is a privileged moiety that binds to the hinge region of kinases (Int'. Pat. Appl. No. WO2018183586A1, US Pat. Pub. No. 20200308173A1, US Pat. No. 11040973); substitution of the 3H-pyrazolo[4,3-f]quinoline moiety results in compounds that inhibit kinases with growth-inhibiting properties. In numerous therapeutic applications, 3H-pyrazolo[4,3-f]quinoline compounds may have low cytotoxicity to mammalian cells while exhibiting high efficacy against receptors that modulate disease states.

[0028] From the above perspective, this disclosure provides a compound comprising a 3H-pyrazolo[4,3-f]quinoline moiety that binds to STING, inhibits the function of STING, and is tolerable by numerous mammalian cell lines at concentrations of 0.5 μM or higher.

[0081] Identification of compound HSD1077 as a STING binder Various compounds synthesized via Doebner-Povarov type multicomponent reactions were screened for STING inhibitors using a STING-based fluorescence polarization assay described in Karanja CW et al., RSC Chemical Biology, 2021, 2, 206-214 (with particular reference to the teachings therein, incorporated herein). Compound HSD1077 was able to compete with 50 nM of the fluorescent dye -c-di-GMP for STING binding, reaching a 50% inhibitory concentration (IC). 50 The concentration was 10.65 μM (see Figure 4). Compound HSD1077 is permeable into cells and can suppress the expression of type 1 interferon in both mouse RAW macrophages and human THP-1 monocytes.

[0082] SAR evaluation of compound HSD1077 analog The quinoline compound HSD1077 was identified as a novel scaffold capable of binding to STING and resulting in competitive substitution of a fluorescent cyclic dinucleotide ligand; therefore, prominent motifs within compound HSD1077 were identified as potentially playing a significant role in STING binding. The binding efficiency of the compound to STING was expressed in the form of the percentage of Fc-di-GMP binding, with a low percentage of binding probes (fluorescent dye-c-di-GMP) suggesting a strong STING binding agent (see Figure 5). The importance of the 3H-pyrazolo[4,3-f]quinoline moiety containing ring A to STING binding was determined, and compounds that function as isostears of the hit compound with significant changes around ring A were generated (Figure 5(A)). As a preliminary screen, 20 μM of the compound and 50 nM of the probe were incubated with 10 μM STING for 5 minutes, and then fluorescence anisotropy was evaluated. As a positive control, incubation was also performed with the potent STING-binding agonist ADU-S100 and DiABZI compound 3 (hereinafter referred to as DIABZI-3), resulting in the expected strong probe substitution from STING.

[0083] The pyrazollo moiety of ring A was observed to be crucial for the STING bond. Deletion of the pyrazollo moiety in compound HSD1077, as shown in analogue 1, resulted in the loss of the STING bond. Direct substitution of the pyrazollo moiety with dimethoxy or dioxolo moieties (compounds 2 and 3, see Figure 5) also resulted in a significant reduction in the STING bond compared to compound HSD1077. Fluorine substitution at position 5 of the 3H-pyrazolo[4,3-f]quinoline moiety (compound 4, Figure 5) was acceptable and resulted in a slight reduction in the STING bond compared to compound HSD1077. Changes to the pyrazollo moiety in compound HSD1077 to pyrrolo (compound 5, Figure 5) or imidazo (compound 6, Figure 5) also resulted in a significant reduction in the STING bond, highlighting the essential role of the pyrazollo moiety in effective STING bonding. Interestingly, another pyrazolo-containing compound, 1H-pyrazolo[4,3-h]quinoline (compound 7, Figure 5), was inferior as a STING binder compared to compound HSD1077, a 3H-pyrazolo[4,3-f]quinoline-containing compound. The 3-methyl-3H-pyrazolo[4,3-f]quinoline compound (compound 8, Figure 5) did not bind to STING as well as compound HSD1077, suggesting that the different functional group orientations of compound HSD1077 are important for STING binding.

[0084] Compound HSD1077 contains a saturated six-membered ring (labeled as ring B in Figure 6A), and the essentiality of this portion was determined. Substitution of the cyclohexyl ring with an ethyl or cyclopropyl group resulted in a decrease in the STING bond in the case of compounds 9 and 10 (Figure 6A). As seen in compounds 11 and 12 (Figure 6A), other ring systems (cyclopentyl ring or cycloheptyl ring) restored the STING bond, with compound 11, which has a cyclopentyl ring, having a slightly lower ability to bind to STING compared to compound HSD1077. As seen in compounds 13 and 14 (Figure 6A), the incorporation of heteroatoms (e.g., O and S) into the saturated heterocyclyl ring reduced the STING bond. Regarding substituents on the cyclohexyl ring, the incorporation of nonpolar substituents (e.g., the methyl group in compound 15 (Figure 6A)) did not affect the STING bond. However, polar substituents (e.g., nitrile, amine, or alcohol moieties) (e.g., compounds 16, 17, and 18 (Figure 6A)) were not very acceptable with respect to the STING bond.

[0085] Modification of the pyrazole ring C was investigated, and the pyrazole ring was substituted with other heterocycles (Figure 7A). The deletion of the pyrazole ring in compound 19 (Figure 7A) resulted in a significant decrease in STING binding, so the presence of the pyrazole ring was initially considered critical to STING binding. C-1 alkylation of the pyrazole ring was confirmed to reduce the compound's ability to bind to STING, as observed in compounds 20, 21, and 22 (Figure 7A) in the form of methyl, t-butyl, and trifluoromethyl substituents. Nitrogen transfer within the pyrazole ring also negatively affects STING binding, as shown in compounds 23 and 24 (Figure 7A). Substitution from pyrazole to triazole also resulted in a similar decrease in STING binding, as shown in compound 25 (Figure 7A). Substitution of the pyrazole moiety with nitrogen-containing aryl moieties (e.g., pyridine and pyrimidine groups), as in the case of compounds 26 and 27 (Figure 7A), also negatively affects STING binding. Interestingly, as seen in analog compound 28 (Figure 7A), methylation of the pyrazole ring was confirmed to generally preserve the STING bond, suggesting that further modification of the 1-position of the pyrazole moiety may be permissible.

[0086] The compound HSD1077 reduces type 1 interferon expression in mouse RAW macrophages. Compound HSD1077 was identified as a STING binder capable of competitively substituting cyclic dinucleotides, and it was determined whether treatment with compound HSD1077 modulates the cGAS-STING pathway through STING binding in cells. To understand the potential regulatory effects of compound HSD1077 on the cGAS-STING pathway, we quantified type I interferon expression after HSD1077 treatment in-cellulo via the commercially available mouse macrophage cell line RAW ISG Blue, which expresses secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) under the control of the inducible promoter interferon-stimulating gene 54 (ISG54). Following stimulation of pathways that activate type I interferon production (e.g., cGAS-STING), SEAP was expressed and detected by the chromogenic detection substrate Quaniblue. (登録商標) This can be quantified using [specific method / tool]. Treatment of raw ISG-blue cells with compound HSD1077 did not induce type 1 interferon production, suggesting that compound HSD1077 does not function as an agonist in the cGAS-STING pathway (Figure 8A). Furthermore, pretreatment with compound HSD1077 (≤1 μM) before activating STING with the innate ligand cGAMP resulted in a dose-dependent decrease in type 1 interferon expression, suggesting that compound HSD1077 modulates cGAS-STING as a STING antagonist. Surprisingly, even at a low concentration of only 20 nM, a significant decrease in interferon expression occurred (Figure 8). As a second analysis, mouse interferon-β mRNA concentration was again quantified by quantitative PCR (qPCR) after cGAMP stimulation of raw macrophages with and without pretreatment with the compound HSD1077. Treatment with compound HSD1077 similarly showed a dose-dependent decrease in mouse interferon-β concentration compared to DMSO-treated cell samples stimulated with cGAMP, supporting the findings obtained through the Quantiblue assay (Figure 8B).

[0087] Treatment with the compound HSD1077 results in a decrease in the phosphorylation of interferon regulator 3 (IRF3) in RAW macrophages. Considering that IRF3 phosphorylation is a key feature of the STING-TBK1-IRF3 pathway, we also investigated and compared the phosphorylation of STING and IRF3 in raw ISG cell samples treated with and untreated with compound HSD1077. Our results showed that pretreatment with 5 μM compound HSD1077 for 4 hours before cGAMP stimulation reduced the concentrations of phosphorylated STING and phosphorylated IRF3 compared to DMSO+cGAMP-treated samples, supporting previous studies that inhibiting the STING pathway is one of the mechanisms of action that suppresses type I interferon (Figure 9).

[0088] The compound HSD1077 reduces type 1 interferon expression in human THP-1 monocytes. Mouse STING (mSTING) and human STING (hSTING) are isoforms with only 61% amino acid sequence agreement in their ligand-binding domains (Acta Pharm. Sin. B, 2020, 10, 2272-2298). Therefore, these essential differences may lead to differences between mSTING and hSTING in terms of drug binding and interaction with STING. This was demonstrated in the case of an mSTING agonist where the lack of bulk in the G230 region allowed the DMXAA molecule to move freely from the hSTING binding site, preventing the induction of an agonist effect in hSTING. The compound HSD1077 was investigated to determine whether it similarly inhibits type 1 interferon expression after cGAMP stimulation in human THP-1 monocytes. By using a THP-1 dual cell line (Invivogen) possessing the luciferase gene under the control of an ISG54-inducible promoter, relative quantification of type 1 interferon expression was possible by detecting luciferase after induction of the cGAS-STING pathway. As a result, pretreatment of THP-1 monocytes with the compound before cGAMP stimulation resulted in a dose-dependent decrease in type 1 interferon expression, similar to the results obtained with pretreatment of mouse RAW macrophages (see Figure 10A). This indicates that the compound HSD1077 can reduce type 1 interferon in both mouse and human cell lines and can target both mSTING and hSTING.

[0089] In autoimmune diseases characterized by chronic inflammation (e.g., SAVI), possible contributing factors include the expression of structurally active STING variants such as N154S or V155M STING isoforms. This leads to chronic upregulation of type 1 interferon expression without the need for ligand activation, resulting in undesirable inflammatory symptoms. Therefore, it was investigated whether the compound HSD1077 could reduce type 1 interferon expression in cell models constitutively expressing active STING isoforms. THP-1 dual cells constitutively expressing active STING (N154S) isoforms via knock-in were treated with compound HSD1077, and the expression of the corresponding luciferase was detected. Furthermore, THP-1 dual monocytes expressing the knock-in STING (N154S) phenotype were treated with compound HSD1077 for 24 hours, and the expressed Lucia luciferase was detected using the luminescent reagent QuantiLuc. (登録商標) Quantitative analysis using [method / tool ​​name] revealed a mild suppression, with a 42% reduction in luminescence intensity compared to the DMSO control (Figure 10B). This suggests that compound HSD1077 can indeed regulate type 1 interferon expression via STING inhibition through prolonged treatment. [Examples]

The change in anisotropy with increasing concentration of compound HSD1077 was plotted, and a four-parameter dose-response model was applied using GraphPad Prism (San Diego, CA, USA). The reported IC50 was used to determine the reported IC50. 50 The value was calculated.
