Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compounds useful for the treatment and / or prevention in mammals, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and the use thereof as METTL3 inhibitors, which are useful for the treatment of cancer, autoimmune diseases, neurological diseases, infectious diseases, inflammatory diseases, and other diseases or conditions in which METTL3 activity is involved. [Background technology]
[0002] Specific chemical modifications of biomolecules are an efficient way to control molecular function, and many downstream signaling pathways are influenced by DNA and protein modifications. Many enzymes involved in regulating protein and DNA modifications are currently targets for cancer treatment. RNA epitranscriptomics, the study of RNA modifications, is a new frontier in this field. Although known since the 1970s, eukaryotic RNA modifications were identified primarily on transfer RNA and ribosomal RNA until about the last decade, and in this last decade, they have been identified and characterized on mRNA and various non-coding RNAs.
[0003] N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common RNA modification in mammalian cells. The m6A modification site is evolutionarily conserved within the consensus motif DRACH (D=A, G, or U; H=A, C, or U), where A is converted to m6A, and m6A modifications generally occur in the coding region of mRNA, the 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR) near the stop codon, and the 5′ untranslated region (5′UTR). m6A is a potentially reversible and dynamic post-transcriptional modification of RNA molecules, regulated by methyltransferases (writer) and demethylases (eraser) and recognized by specific binding proteins (reader) (Li et al. 2022).
[0004] m6A plays a crucial role in cancer and is also involved in various physiological processes such as neurodevelopment, T cell homeostasis, glycolipid metabolism, and gamete formation. There is growing evidence suggesting that its disruption can lead to a range of diseases, including addiction, autoimmune diseases, metabolic disorders, and infertility (Yang et al. 2020).
[0005] The addition of m6A is primarily catalyzed by a methyltransferase complex (MTC) containing numerous components. As a core component of the MTC, methyltransferase-like protein 3 (METTL3) is an S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)-binding protein that catalyzes the transfer of methyl groups in SAM to adenine bases in RNA. METTL14 stabilizes the structure of the MTC and recognizes the consensus motif DRACH, while Wilms tumor 1-associated protein (WTAP) promotes the recruitment of METTL3 and METTL14 (Wang et al. 2016, Ping et al. 2014).
[0006] METTL3 plays a crucial role in many biological processes, particularly tumorigenesis and development. Generally, METTL3 acts as an oncogene in cancer. Therefore, METTL3 causes alterations in mRNA translation and accelerates tumor progression, while downregulation of METTL3 leads to tumor suppression. Consequently, METTL3 mRNA expression is significantly elevated in cancerous tissue compared to normal tissue. Thus, METTL3 is associated with poor prognosis and therefore represents a potential novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in cancer clinical practice (Liu et al. 2020).
[0007] WO2020201773, WO2021111124, WO2022074379, and WO2022074391 describe METTL3 inhibitors and their use in the treatment of proliferative disorders such as cancer, autoimmune diseases, neurological disorders, infections, and inflammatory diseases, as well as other diseases or conditions in which METTL3 activity is involved.
[0008] WO2022254216 describes a combination therapy comprising a METTL3 inhibitor and a further anti-cancer agent.
[0009] WO2022254218 describes a process for the manufacture of inhibitory compounds. WO2021079196, WO2021081211, and WO2022081739 describe METTL3 regulators. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0081] The term "stereoisomer" as used in this invention refers to stereoisomers of stereoconfiguration and includes geometric isomers and optical isomers. Geometric isomers, also called E / Z isomers or cis-trans isomers, are due to differences in the position of substituents on a double C=C bond, which can have a Z configuration or an E configuration, also called a cis or trans configuration. Optical isomers are due to differences in the spatial arrangement of substituents or lone pairs on an atom (such as a carbon atom or a sulfur atom) containing four different substituents (which may include lone pairs). Therefore, this atom represents a chiral center or a chiral center.

[0442] Pharmacology Department MTase Glo assay The methyltransferase activity of METTL3 was measured by Promega's (V7602) MTase Glo TM The bioluminescence was measured using a bioluminescence assay kit.

The synthetic RNA substrate 5'UACACUCGAUCUGGACUAAAG.CUGCUC 3' was purchased from Horizon Discovery. The enzymatic reaction was performed in duplicate in an Optiplate 96 half-area (Perkin Elmer 6002290) with a final volume of 10 μL, under conditions including 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 0.01% Triton X-100, and 2 mM MgCl2. The experiment was also performed again independently in duplicate.
[0444] METTL3 / 14 solution (RNA substrate (10 μM) and MTaseGlo to convert the resulting SAH to ADP) TM The reagents were pre-incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes under various concentrations of the compound (final concentrations of the compound ranged from 5 μM to 0.25 nM with 1% DMSO remaining). Then, SAM (final concentration 0.6 μM) was added and the enzymatic reaction was incubated at room temperature for 60 minutes. MTaseGlo was used to convert ADP to ATP. TM The detection solution was added, and the resulting reaction mixture was incubated at room temperature for a further 60 minutes.
[0445] Luminescence signals were measured using a plate-reading luminometer (SpectraMax i3X) and correlated with SAH concentration. Inhibition rates were obtained by normalizing to a control well without inhibition (DMSO only). IC 50 The values were calculated by measuring enzyme activity against a dilution series of inhibitor concentrations (10 levels of concentration, 3-fold dilution) using a 4-parameter nonlinear regression analysis.
[0446] Cell proliferation assay MOLM-13 cells and Kasumi-1 cells were seeded in quadruple rows in 27 μL of suspension in 384-well plates (Greiner 781080) at concentrations of 1200 cells / well and 10000 cells / well, respectively. RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, 2 mM glutamine, and 0.2% Pen / Strep was used as the culture medium. Cells were treated by adding 3 μL of intermediate compound / medium concentration solution. This resulted in final compound concentrations ranging from 50 μM to 2.54 nM with residual 0.5% DMSO. Intermediate (10-fold) compound / medium dilution plates were prepared by taking 5 μL of compound solution from the initial compound dilution plate (concentration range of 10 mM to 508 nM in 100% DMSO) and mixing it with 95 μL of medium. Cells were incubated at 37°C under a 5% CO2 and humidified atmosphere. Luminescence signaling was measured on day 5 using the CellTiter-Glo® luminescent cell viability assay (30 μL / well; Promega, G7572), and relative cell proliferation rates were calculated compared to control wells with and without cells treated with 0.5% DMSO alone.
