Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to compounds useful for modulating BRG1 or BRM-associated factor (BAF) complexes. In particular, the present invention relates to compounds useful for treating disorders associated with BAF complex function. [Background technology]
[0002] Chromatin regulation is essential for gene expression, and ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling is the mechanism by which such gene expression occurs. The human switch / sucrose non-fermenting (SWI / SNF) chromatin remodeling complex, also known as the BAF complex, has two SWI2-like ATPases known as BRG1 (Brahma-related gene-1) and BRM (Brahma). The transcriptional activator BRG1, also known as the ATP-dependent chromatin remodeler SMARCA4, is encoded by the SMARCA4 gene on chromosome 19. BRG1 is overexpressed in some cancer tumors and is required for cancer cell proliferation. BRM, also known as the likely global transcriptional activator SNF2L2 and / or the ATP-dependent chromatin remodeler SMARCA2, is encoded by the SMARCA2 gene on chromosome 9, and has been shown to be essential for tumor cell proliferation in cells characterized by loss-of-function mutations in BRG1. Deactivation of BRG and / or BRM leads to downstream effects in cells, including cell cycle arrest and tumor suppression. Summary of the Invention

[0116] The compounds of the present invention can have one or more asymmetric carbon atoms and can exist in the form of optically pure enantiomers, mixtures of enantiomers, such as racemates, optically pure diastereomers, mixtures of diastereomers, diastereomeric racemates, or mixtures of diastereomeric racemates. Optically active forms can be obtained, for example, by resolution of racemates, by asymmetric synthesis or asymmetric chromatography (chromatography using chiral adsorbents or eluents). That is, certain disclosed compounds can exist in various stereoisomeric forms. Stereoisomers are compounds that differ only in their spatial arrangement. Enantiomers are most commonly pairs of stereoisomers whose mirror images are not superimposable because they contain asymmetrically substituted carbon atoms that function as chiral centers. Enantiomers refer to one of a pair of molecules that are mirror images of each other and are not superimposable. Diastereomers are most commonly stereoisomers that are not related as mirror images because they contain two or more asymmetrically substituted carbon atoms and represent the configuration of substituents around one or more chiral carbon atoms. Enantiomers of a compound may be prepared, for example, by separating an enantiomer from a racemate using one or more well-known techniques and methods, such as, for example, chiral chromatography and separation methods based thereon. Suitable techniques and / or methods for separating enantiomers of the compounds described herein from racemic mixtures can be readily determined by one of ordinary skill in the art. "Racemate" or "racemic mixture" refers to a compound containing two enantiomers, and such mixtures do not exhibit optical activity, i.e., they do not rotate the plane of polarized light. "Geometric isomer" refers to isomers that differ in the orientation of substituted atoms in relationship to a carbon-carbon double bond, a cycloalkyl ring, or a bridged bicyclic system. Atoms (other than H) on each side of a carbon-carbon double bond may be in the E (substituents are on opposite sides of the carbon-carbon double bond) or Z (substituents are oriented on the same side) configuration. "R", "S", "S*", "R*", "E", "Z", "cis", and "trans" refer to configurations relative to the core molecule. Certain disclosed compounds may exist in atropisomeric forms.Atropisomers are stereoisomers resulting from hindered rotation around a single bond, where the steric strain barrier to rotation is high enough to allow the isolation of the conformers. The compounds of the present invention can be prepared as individual isomers by isomer-specific synthesis or by resolution from an isomeric mixture. Traditional resolution techniques include forming a salt of the free base of each isomer of the isomeric pair using an optically active acid (followed by fractional crystallization and regeneration of the free base), forming a salt of the acid form of each isomer of the isomeric pair using an optically active amine (followed by fractional crystallization and regeneration of the free acid), forming an ester or amide of each isomer of the isomeric pair using an optically pure acid, amine, or alcohol (followed by chromatographic separation and removal of the chiral auxiliary), or resolving the isomeric mixture of either the starting material or the final product using a variety of well-known chromatographic methods. When the stereochemistry of a disclosed compound is named or shown by structure, the named or shown stereoisomer is at least 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 99%, or 99.9% by weight relative to the other stereoisomers. When a single enantiomer is named or shown by structure, the shown or named enantiomer is at least 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 99%, or 99.9% by weight optically pure. When a single diastereomer is named or shown by structure, the shown or named diastereomer is at least 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 99%, or 99.9% by weight pure. Percent optical purity is the weight of the enantiomer, or the ratio of the weight of the enantiomer to the weight of its optical isomer. Diastereomeric purity by weight is the ratio of the weight of one diastereomer to the weight of all diastereomers. When the stereochemistry of a disclosed compound is named or shown by structure, the named or shown stereoisomer is at least 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 99%, or 99.9% pure by mole fraction relative to the other stereoisomer.When a single enantiomer is named or shown by structure, the shown or named enantiomer is at least 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 99%, or 99.9% pure by mole fraction. When a single diastereomer is named or shown by structure, the shown or named diastereomer is at least 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 99%, or 99.9% pure by mole fraction. Percent purity by mole fraction is the ratio of moles of enantiomer, or moles of enantiomer and moles of its optical isomer. Similarly, percent purity by mole fraction is the ratio of moles of diastereomer, or moles of diastereomer and moles of its isomer. When a disclosed compound is named or shown by structure without showing stereochemistry and the compound has at least one chiral center, the name or structure should be understood to encompass any of the enantiomers of the compound free of the corresponding optical isomer, a racemic mixture of the compound, a mixture of the compound, or a mixture enriched in one enantiomer with respect to its corresponding optical isomer. When a disclosed compound is named or shown by structure without showing stereochemistry and the compound has more than one chiral center, the name or structure should be understood to encompass any of the diastereomers free of the other diastereomers, any of the diastereomers free of other diastereomer pairs, mixtures of diastereomers, mixtures of diastereomer pairs, mixtures of diastereomers enriched in one diastereomer with respect to the other diastereomers, or mixtures of diastereomers enriched in one or more diastereomers with respect to the other diastereomers. The present invention encompasses all of these forms.

The compounds of the invention can also be used to "prophylactically treat" or "prevent" disorders, for example, in subjects at increased risk of developing the disorder.
[0144] The details of one or more embodiments of the invention are set forth in the description below. Other features, objects, and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the description and the claims. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0145] The present disclosure features compounds useful for inhibiting BRG1 and optionally BRM. These compounds may be used to modulate the activity of the BAF complex, for example, for the treatment of BAF-related disorders (e.g., loss-of-function disorders of BRG1), such as cancer. Exemplary compounds described herein include compounds having a structure according to Formula I, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof.
[0146] Formula I: [ka] During the ceremony, X is a halo; X 1 is absent, O or NR 1 and k is 0, 1, 2, or 3; n is 0, 1, or 2; R 1 is H or optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl; L 1 is an optionally substituted C1-C6 alkylene, an optionally substituted C2-C6 alkenylene, or an optionally substituted C2-C6 alkynylene; L 2 is absent or optionally substituted C1-C6 alkylene, optionally substituted C1-C 20 heteroalkylene, or an optionally substituted C2-C9 heterocyclylene; Each L 3 are independently optionally substituted C-C 20 Heteroalkylene, optionally substituted C-C 10 Carbocyclylene, optionally substituted C3-C 10 Carbocyclylene-C1-C6 alkylene, optionally substituted C2-C9 heterocyclylene, optionally substituted C2-C9 heterocyclylene-C1-C6 alkylene, optionally substituted C6-C 10 Arylene, optionally substituted C-C 10arylene-C1-C6 alkylene, optionally substituted C2-C6 alkynylene, O, or NR 1 and D is the decomposition portion.
[0147] In some embodiments, the compound has the structure of any one of compounds 1-105 in Table 1, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof.
[0148] Other embodiments, and exemplary methods for the synthesis of the production of these compounds, are described herein.
[0149] Pharmaceutical Use The compounds described herein are useful in the methods of the invention and, without being bound by theory, are believed to exert their ability to modulate the level, status, and / or activity of the BAF complex, i.e., by inhibiting the activity of the BRG1 and / or BRM proteins within the mammalian BAF complex. BAF complex-associated disorders include, but are not limited to, disorders associated with loss-of-function mutations in BRG1.
[0150] One aspect of the invention relates to a method of treating a disorder associated with a loss-of-function mutation in BRG1, such as cancer (e.g., non-small cell lung cancer, colon cancer, bladder cancer, cancer of unknown primary site, glioma, breast cancer, melanoma, non-melanoma skin cancer, endometrial cancer, or penile cancer) in a subject in need thereof. In some embodiments, the compound is administered in an amount and for a time effective to result in one or more (e.g., two or more, three or more, four or more) of: (a) a reduction in tumor size; (b) a reduction in tumor growth rate; (c) an increase in tumor cell death; (d) a reduction in tumor progression; (e) a reduction in the number of metastases; (f) a reduction in the rate of metastasis; (g) a reduction in tumor recurrence; (h) an increase in the subject's survival rate; (i) an increase in the subject's progression-free survival time.
[0151] Treating cancer can result in a reduction in tumor size or volume. For example, after treatment, the tumor size is reduced by 5% or more (e.g., 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% or more) relative to its size before treatment. The size of the tumor may be measured by any reproducible means of measurement. For example, the size of the tumor may be measured as the diameter of the tumor.
[0152] Treating cancer may further result in a reduction in the number of tumors. For example, after treatment, the number of tumors is reduced by 5% or more (e.g., 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% or more) relative to the number before treatment. The number of tumors may be measured by any reproducible means of measurement, for example, the number of tumors may be measured by counting tumors visible to the naked eye or at a particular magnification (e.g., 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 10x, or 50x).
[0153] Treatment of cancer may result in a decrease in the number of metastatic nodules in other tissues or organs distant from the primary tumor site. For example, after treatment, the number of metastatic nodules is reduced by 5% or more (e.g., 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% or more) compared to the number before treatment. The number of metastatic nodules may be measured by any reproducible measurement means. For example, the number of metastatic nodules may be measured by counting metastatic nodules visible to the naked eye or at a particular magnification (e.g., 2x, 10x, or 50x).
[0154] Treating cancer may result in an increase in the average survival time of a population of subjects treated according to the present invention compared to a population of untreated subjects. For example, the average survival time is increased by more than 30 days (more than 60 days, 90 days, or 120 days). The increase in the average survival time of a population may be measured by any reproducible means. The increase in the average survival time of a population may be measured, for example, by calculating the average length of survival of a population after the start of treatment with a compound of the present invention. The increase in the average survival time of a population may also be measured, for example, by calculating the average length of survival of a population after the completion of the first round of treatment with a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt of a compound of the present invention.
[0155] Treating cancer may also result in a reduction in the mortality rate of a population of treated subjects compared to an untreated population. For example, the mortality rate is reduced by more than 2% (e.g., more than 5%, 10%, or 25%). The reduction in the mortality rate of a population of treated subjects may be measured by any reproducible means, for example, by calculating the average number of disease-related deaths per unit time for a population after the start of treatment with a pharma-ceutically acceptable salt of the present invention. The reduction in the mortality rate of a population may also be measured, for example, by calculating the average number of disease-related deaths per unit time for a population after the completion of the first round of treatment with a pharma-ceutically acceptable salt of the present invention.
[0156] Exemplary cancers that may be treated by the present invention include, but are not limited to, non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, colon cancer, bladder cancer, glioma, breast cancer, melanoma, non-melanoma skin cancer, endometrial cancer, esophagogastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, hepatobiliary cancer, soft tissue sarcoma, ovarian cancer, head and neck cancer, renal cell carcinoma, bone cancer, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, prostate cancer, embryonal tumors, germ cell tumors, cervical cancer, thyroid cancer, salivary gland cancer, gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors, uterine sarcoma, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, CNS cancer, thymic tumors, adrenal cortical carcinoma, appendix cancer, small intestine cancer, and penile cancer.
[0157] Combination preparations and their uses The compounds of the invention may be combined with one or more therapeutic agents. In particular, the therapeutic agents may be those that treat or prophylactically treat any of the cancers described herein.
[0158] Combination therapy The compounds of the present invention can be used alone or in combination with additional therapeutic agents, such as other drugs that treat cancer or related symptoms, or in combination with other types of treatments to treat cancer. In combination treatment, the dosage of one or more therapeutic compounds can be reduced from the standard dosage when administered alone. For example, dosage can be empirically determined from drug combinations and permutations, or estimated by isobolographic analysis (e.g., Black et al., Neurology 65:S3-S6, 2005). In this case, the dosage of the compounds when combined should provide a therapeutic effect.

Parenteral administration includes intravenous, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, intramuscular, transepithelial, nasal, intrapulmonary, intrathecal, rectal, and topical modes of administration. Parenteral administration can also be by continuous infusion over a selected period of time.
[0166] The compounds of the present invention can be administered orally, for example, with an inert diluent or an assimilable edible carrier, or can be enclosed in hard or soft shell gelatin capsules, or can be compressed into tablets, or can be directly incorporated with dietary food. For oral therapeutic administration, the compounds of the present invention can be incorporated with excipients and used in the form of ingestible tablets, buccal tablets, troches, capsules, elixirs, suspensions, syrups, and wafers. The compounds of the present invention can also be administered parenterally. Solutions of the compounds of the present invention can be prepared in water suitably mixed with a surfactant, such as hydroxypropylcellulose. Dispersions can also be prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycols, DMSO, and mixtures thereof, with or without alcohol, and in oils. These preparations can contain a preservative to prevent the growth of microorganisms under ordinary conditions of storage and use. Conventional procedures and ingredients for the selection and preparation of suitable formulations are described, for example, in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences (2003, 20th ed.) and The United States Pharmacopeia: The National Formulary, published in 1999 (USP 24 NF19). Pharmaceutical forms suitable for injectable use include sterile aqueous solutions or dispersions and sterile powders for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable solutions or dispersions. In all cases, the form must be sterile and must be sufficiently fluid to be easily administered via a syringe. Compositions for nasal administration can be conveniently formulated as aerosols, drops, gels, and powders. Aerosol formulations typically contain a solution or fine suspension of the active substance in a physiologically acceptable aqueous or non-aqueous solvent, and are usually provided in single or multiple doses in sterile form in a sealed container that can be in the form of a cartridge or refill for use with a nebulizer device. Alternatively, the sealed container may be a single-dispensing device, such as a single-dose nasal inhaler or aerosol dispenser fitted with a metering valve, intended for disposal after use.Where the dosage form comprises an aerosol dispenser, it contains a propellant which may be a compressed gas such as compressed air or an organic propellant such as a fluorochlorohydrocarbon. The aerosol dosage form may also take the form of a pump-atomizer. Suitable compositions for buccal or sublingual administration include tablets, lozenges, and pastilles, in which the active ingredient is formulated with a carrier such as sugar, acacia, tragacanth, gelatin, and glycerin. Compositions for rectal administration are conveniently in the form of a suppository containing a conventional suppository base such as cocoa butter. The compounds described herein may be administered intratumorally, for example, as an intratumoral injection. Intratumoral injection is a direct injection into the tumor vasculature and is particularly contemplated for individual solid accessible tumors. Local, regional, or systemic administration may also be appropriate. The compounds described herein may be advantageously contacted by administering an injection or multiple injections to the tumor, for example spaced approximately 1 cm apart. In the case of surgical intervention, the present invention may be used prior to surgery, such as to subject an inoperable tumor to resection. Continuous administration can also be applied where appropriate, for example, by implanting a catheter into the tumor or tumor vasculature.
[0167] The compounds of the invention, as described herein, may be administered to animals, e.g., humans, alone or in combination with pharma- ceutically acceptable carriers, the ratio of which will be determined by the solubility and chemical properties of the compound, the chosen route of administration, and standard pharmaceutical practice.
[0168] Dosage The dosage of the compound of the present invention and / or the composition comprising the compound of the present invention may vary depending on many factors, such as the pharmacodynamic properties of the compound; the mode of administration; the age, health, and weight of the recipient; the nature and extent of the symptoms; the frequency of treatment and the type of concomitant treatment, if any; and the clearance rate of the compound in the treated animal. Those skilled in the art can determine the appropriate dosage based on the above factors. The compound of the present invention may be administered at a suitable dosage initially, which may be adjusted as necessary depending on the clinical response. In general, satisfactory results can be obtained when the compound of the present invention is administered to humans at a daily dose of, for example, 0.05 mg to 3000 mg (measured as solid form). The dosage range includes, for example, 10 to 1000 mg (for example, 50 to 800 mg). In some embodiments, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, 950, or 1000 mg of the compound are administered.
[0169] Alternatively, the patient's body weight can be used to calculate the dosage. For example, the dosage of the compound or pharmaceutical composition thereof administered to the patient may be in the range of 0.1-100 mg / kg (e.g., 0.25-25 mg / kg). In exemplary, non-limiting embodiments, the dosage may be in the range of 0.5-5.0 mg / kg (e.g., 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, or 5.0 mg / kg) or 5.0-20 mg / kg (e.g., 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, 9.0, 9.5, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, or 20 mg / kg).

[0309] Example 74. Degradation of BRM and BRG1 by the compounds of the present invention This example demonstrates the ability of compounds of the disclosure to degrade HiBit-BRM or HiBit-BRG1 fusion proteins in a cell-based degradation assay.
[0310] Procedure: A stable HeLa cell line expressing HiBiT-BRM was generated. On day 0, 5000 cells were seeded in 40 μL of medium into each well of a 384-well cell culture plate. On day 1, cells were treated with 120 nL of DMSO or 120 nL of 3-fold serial DMSO diluted compounds (10 points in duplicate with 30 μM as the final highest dose). Plates were then incubated for 24 hours in a standard tissue culture incubator and equilibrated at room temperature for 15 minutes. Nano-Glo HiBiT Lytic Detection System (Promega N3050) reagent was freshly prepared and 20 ul was added to each well. Upon addition of this LgBit-containing reagent, HiBiT and LgBiT proteins associate to form the light-emitting NanoBiT luciferase. Plates were shaken for 10 minutes at room temperature and bioluminescence was read using an EnVision plate reader (PerkinElmer).
[0311] To measure the degradation of BRG1, we generated a stable HeLa cell line expressing HiBit-BRG1 and LgBit, and then followed the same protocol as above.
[0312] The decomposition percentage was calculated using the following formula: Decomposition percentage = 100% - 100% x (Lum Sample -Lum LC ) / (Lum HC -Lum LC ) were used to calculate the IC. Cells treated with DMSO were used as the high control (HC) and standard treated cells with 2 μM of a known BRM / BRG1 degrader were used as the low control (LC). The data were fitted to a four-parameter nonlinear curve fit to calculate the IC, as shown in Table 3. 50 (μm) values were calculated.
[0313] Results: As shown in Table 2 below, the compounds of the present invention degraded both BRM and BRG1. [Table 23-1] [Table 23-2] [Table 23-3] [Table 23-4]
