[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 831,622, filed April 9, 2019, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety herein.
[0002] The present invention relates to organic compounds useful for therapy in mammals, and in particular for the modulation of EP300 or CBP for various diseases associated with overexpression of EP300 or CBP. [Background technology]
[0003] Adenovirus E1A-associated 300 kDa protein (EP300, also called P300 or KAT3B) and CREB-binding protein (CBP, also called CREBBP or KAT3A) have transcriptional coactivators that contain homologous bromodomains and assemble with other proteins to initiate the expression of specific genes. More specifically, EP300 and CBP are histone acetyltransferases (HATs) that acetylate both histone and nonhistone proteins that play roles in gene expression regulation, transcription, and cell cycle regulation. The acetylation status of lysine residues in histone tails is one of many epigenetic post-translational modifications that alter DNA-templated processes such as transcription to promote malignant transformation. Protein acetylation also serves to block polyubiquitination, thereby preventing proteasomal degradation and cell death. (Giotopoulos et al. The epigenetic regulators CBP and p300 facilitate leukemogenesis and represent therapeutic targets in acute myeloid leukemia, Oncogene, 2016 January 21;35(3):279-289). Bromodomain containing BDR4 is the reader of acetyl marks in histone tails written by EP300 / CBP, therefore, bromodomain, EP300, and CBP all share the same pathway in regulating gene transcription (Perez-Salvia et al., Bromodomain inhibitors and cancer therapy: From structures to applications, Epigenetics&Chromatin, 2018,11:30). These proteins interact with many other proteins involved in transcription and cell cycle regulation, as well as with the products of oncogenes and fusion genes (Giotopoulos et al., 2016).
[0004] Inhibition of CBP or EP300 has been shown to be effective in inhibiting the proliferation of acute myeloid leukemia cells, and EP300 and CPB are promising therapeutic targets across multiple subtypes of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (Giotopoulos et al., 2016). Furthermore, inactivating mutations of acetyltransferase genes have been reported in B-cell lymphomas (Mullighan et al.,CREBBP mutations in relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia,Nature,2011;471(7337):235-9).
[0005] It has also been reported that CBP or EP300 inhibition abolishes the survival of multiple myeloma cell lines as a result of direct transcriptional repression of the lymphocyte-specific transcription factor IRF4, which is required for myeloma cell survival, and that CBP / EP300 inhibition is a viable therapeutic strategy to target multiple myeloma and other lymphoid malignancies that depend on the IRF4 network (Conery et al,Bromodomain inhibition of the transcriptional coactivators CBP / EP300 as a therapeutic strategy to target the IRF4 network in multiple myeloma.https: / / doi.org / 10.7554 / eLife.10483.001).
[0006] EP300 inhibition can also stimulate autophagy to provide anti-aging effects. For example, spermidine is a polyamine drug that delays age-related diseases and death by acting as an EP300 inhibitor that stimulates autophagy to provide anti-aging effects (Madeo et al., Spermidine delays ageing in humans, Aging, 2018, Vol. 10, No. 8).
[0007] Inhibition of CBP or EP300 has also been shown to be able to downregulate expression in AR (androgen receptor)-dependent cancer cells, as demonstrated in AR-dependent prostate cancer cell lines and AR-dependent breast cancer tumors (Garcia-Carpizo et al., CREBBP / EP300 bromodomain inhibitors in breast cancer, Mol. Cancer Res., 17(3) March 2019).
[0008] Thus, compounds that can inhibit EP300 or CBP represent a new class of potential therapeutics that can modulate histone acetyltransferases (HATs) that acetylate histone and non-histone proteins. As there are no EP300 or CBBP inhibitors currently approved for the treatment or prevention of disease in humans, there is an unmet need for new compounds that can modulate EP300 or CBP.

[0017] It should be noted that as used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" include plural references unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.
[0018] Unless the point of attachment is otherwise indicated, the chemical moieties listed in the variable definitions of formula (I) and all embodiments thereof in this disclosure are to be read from left to right, with the right hand side being directly attached to the parent structure as defined. However, when the point of attachment (e.g., a dash "-") is indicated on the left hand side of the chemical moiety (e.g., -alkyloxy-(C 1 ~C 25 ) alkyl), then the left side of this chemical moiety is directly attached to the parent moiety as defined.
[0019] For purposes of constructing compounds, when considering the general descriptions of compounds described herein, it is assumed that such construction will result in the creation of stable structures, i.e., one of ordinary skill in the art will theoretically recognize some constructions (i.e., sterically practical and / or synthetically feasible) that would not normally be considered stable compounds.

[0051] As used herein in connection with the compounds of the present disclosure, the term "synthesize" and like terms refer to chemical synthesis from one or more precursor materials.
[0052] As used herein, the term "composition" refers to a formulation suitable for administration to an animal subject intended for therapeutic purposes, containing at least one pharma- ceutically active compound and at least one pharma- ceutically acceptable carrier or excipient.
[0053] The term "pharmaceutical acceptable" indicates that the indicated substance does not possess properties that would cause a reasonably prudent practitioner, having regard to the disease or condition to be treated and the respective route of administration, to avoid administering the substance to a patient. For example, such materials are generally required to be essentially sterile, e.g., for injectables.
[0054] "Pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a salt that is acceptable for administration to a patient, such as a mammal (e.g., a salt that has acceptable mammalian safety for a given dosing regimen). Possible pharmaceutically acceptable salt forms include, but are not limited to, mono, bis, tris, tetrakis, and the like. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are non-toxic in the amounts and concentrations at which they are administered. The preparation of such salts can facilitate pharmacological use by altering the physical characteristics of a compound without preventing the compound from exerting its physiological effect. Useful changes in physical properties include lowering the melting point to facilitate transmucosal administration and increasing solubility to facilitate administering higher concentrations of the drug. Such salts can be derived from pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic or organic bases and from pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic or organic acids, depending on the particular substituents found on the compounds described herein.
[0055] Pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be prepared by standard techniques.For example, the free base form of the compound can be dissolved in a suitable solvent, such as an aqueous or aqueous alcoholic solution containing a suitable acid, and then isolated by evaporating the solution.In another example, salts can be prepared by reacting a free base and an acid in an organic solvent.
[0056] When compounds of the present disclosure contain relatively acidic functional groups, base addition salts can be obtained by contacting the neutral form of such a compound, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent, with a sufficient amount of the desired base (i.e., a primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary, or cyclic amine, an alkali metal hydroxide, an alkaline earth metal hydroxide, etc.). The desired acid can be, for example, a pyranosidyl acid (such as glucuronic acid or galacturonic acid), an alpha-hydroxy acid (such as citric acid or tartaric acid), an amino acid (such as aspartic acid or glutamic acid), an aromatic acid (such as benzoic acid or cinnamic acid), a sulfonic acid (such as p-toluenesulfonic acid or ethanesulfonic acid), and the like. In some embodiments, the salt may be, for example, acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, propionic acid, ascorbic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, benzoic acid, camphorsulfonic acid, citric acid, ethanesulfonic acid, fumaric acid, glycolic acid, gluconic acid, glucoronic acid, glutamic acid, hippuric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydrochloric acid, isethionic acid, lactic acid, lactobionic acid, maleic acid, malic acid, malonic acid, mandelic acid, oxalic acid, methanesulfonic acid, mucic acid, naphthalenesulfonic acid, nicotinic acid, nitric acid, pamoic acid, pantothenic acid, phosphoric acid, succinic acid, sulfuric acid, sulfamine acid, or the like. The acid may be derived from pharma- ceutically acceptable acids such as hydroiodic acid, carboxylic acid, tartaric acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, pyruvic acid, aspartic acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, anthranilic acid, mesylic acid, salicylic acid, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, phenylacetic acid, embonic acid (pamoic acid), ethanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonic acid, sulfanilic acid, stearic acid, cyclohexylsulfamic acid, cyclohexylaminosulfonic acid, quinic acid, alginic acid, hydroxybutyric acid, galactaric acid, and galacturonic acid.
[0057] Also included are salts of amino acids, such as arginates, and salts of organic acids, such as glucuronic acid or galacturonic acid (see, e.g., Berge, SM et al, "Pharmaceutical Salts," J. Pharmaceutical Science, 1977, 66:1-19). Certain compounds of the present disclosure contain both basic and acidic functionalities that allow the compounds to be converted into either base or acid addition salts.
[0058] The neutral forms of the compounds can be regenerated by contacting the salt with a base or acid and isolating the parent compound in the conventional manner. The parent forms of the compounds differ from the various salt forms in certain physical properties, such as solubility in polar solvents, but otherwise the salts are equivalent to the parent forms of the compounds for the purposes of this disclosure.
[0059] Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of different compounds may exist as complexes. Examples of complexes include 8-chlorotheophylline complexes (e.g., dimenhydrinate, diphenhydramine 8-chlorotheophylline (1:1) complex, similar to dramamine) and various cyclodextrin inclusion complexes.
[0060] The term "deuterated" as used herein alone or as part of a group refers to a deuterium atom that is substituted. The term "deuterated analog" as used herein alone or as part of a group refers to a deuterium atom that is substituted in place of hydrogen. The deuterated analogs of the present disclosure can be fully or partially deuterium substituted derivatives. In some embodiments, the deuterium substituted derivatives of the present disclosure retain a fully or partially deuterium substituted alkyl, aryl, or heteroaryl group.
[0061] The present disclosure also encompasses the isotopically labeled compounds of the present disclosure, which are identical to those listed herein, but which have one or more atoms replaced by atoms with different atomic masses or mass numbers than those usually found in nature.All isotopic variations of the compounds of the present disclosure, whether radioactive or not, are intended to be encompassed within the scope of the present disclosure.Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into the compounds of the present disclosure include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, fluorine, and chlorine, but 2 H (deuterium, D), 3 H (tritium), 11 C. 13 C. 14 C. 15 N, 18 F, 31 P, 32 P, 35 S, 36 Cl, and 125 Unless otherwise specified, when a position is specifically designated as "H" or "hydrogen," the position may also be designated as deuterium (D) or tritium ( 3 H) or its natural abundance isotopic composition or isotopes thereof. Certain isotopically labeled compounds of the present disclosure (e.g., 3 H and 14 C) are useful in compound and / or substrate tissue distribution assays. 3 H) and carbon-14 (i.e. 14 C) and fluorine-18( 18 F) isotopes are useful for their ease of preparation and detectability. Additionally, deuterium (i.e., 2 Substitution with heavier isotopes, such as H, may confer certain therapeutic advantages due to greater metabolic stability (e.g., increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements) and therefore may be preferred in some circumstances. Isotopically labeled compounds of the present disclosure may generally be prepared following procedures similar to those described in the protocols and examples herein below, by substituting an isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent.
[0062] "Prodrug" refers to any compound that releases an active parent drug according to formula I in vivo when such prodrug is administered to a subject. Prodrugs of compounds of formula I are prepared by modifying functional groups present in the compounds of formula I, either by routine manipulation or in vivo, which modifications can be cleaved in vivo to release the parent compound. Prodrugs can progress from the prodrug form to the active form in a single step, or can have one or more intermediate forms that themselves can be active or inactive. Some prodrugs are enzymatically activated to produce the active compound, or a compound that upon further chemical reaction produces the active compound. Prodrugs include compounds of formula I in which a hydroxyl, amino, carboxyl, or sulfhydryl group in the compound of formula I is bonded to any group that can be cleaved in vivo to regenerate a free hydroxyl, amino, or sulfhydryl group, respectively. Examples of prodrugs include, but are not limited to, esters (e.g., acetate, formate, and benzoate derivatives), amides, guanidines, carbamates (e.g., N,N-dimethylaminocarbonyl) of hydroxy functional groups in the compounds of formula I. Other examples of prodrugs include, but are not limited to, carbonates, ureides, solvates, or hydrates of the active compound. The preparation, selection, and use of prodrugs are discussed in T. Higuchi and V. Stella, "Pro-drugs as Novel Delivery Systems," Vol. 14, of the ACS Symposium Series, "Design of Prodrugs," ed. H. Bundgaard, Elsevier, 1985, and Bioreversible Carriers in Drug Design, ed. Edward B. Roche, American Pharmaceutical Association and Pergamon Press, 1987, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
[0063] As described in The Practice of Medicinal Chemistry, Ch. 31-32 (Ed. Wermuth, Academic Press, San Diego, CA, 2001), prodrugs can be conceptually divided into two non-exclusive categories: bioprecursor prodrugs and carrier prodrugs. In general, bioprecursor prodrugs are compounds that are inactive or have low activity compared to the corresponding active drug compound, contain one or more protecting groups, and are converted to active forms by metabolism or solvolysis. Both the active drug form and any released metabolites should have acceptably low toxicity. Typically, the formation of an active drug compound involves a metabolic process or reaction that is one of the following types:
[0064] (1) Oxidation Reactions: Oxidation reactions are exemplified by reactions such as, but not limited to, the oxidation of alcohol, carbonyl, and acidic functional groups, hydroxylation of aliphatic carbons, hydroxylation of alicyclic carbon atoms, oxidation of aromatic carbon atoms, oxidation of carbon-carbon double bonds, oxidation of nitrogen-containing functional groups, oxidation of silicon, phosphorus, arsenic, and sulfur, oxidative N-dealkylation, oxidative O- and S-dealkylation, oxidative deamination, and other oxidation reactions.
[0065] (2) Reduction Reactions: Reduction reactions are exemplified, but are not limited to, reactions such as reduction of carbonyl functional groups, reduction of alcohol functional groups and carbon-carbon double bonds, reduction of nitrogen-containing functional groups, and other reduction reactions.
[0066] (3) Reactions that do not change the oxidation state: Reactions that do not change the oxidation state are exemplified, but not limited to, reactions such as hydrolysis of esters and ethers, hydrolytic cleavage of carbon-nitrogen single bonds, hydrolytic cleavage of non-aromatic heterocycles, hydration and dehydration at multiple bonds, dehydration reactions, hydrolytic dehalogenation, elimination of hydrogen halide molecules, and new atomic bonds resulting from other such reactions.
[0067] Carrier prodrugs are, for example, drug compounds that contain a transport moiety that improves uptake and / or localized delivery to the site of action. Desirably for such carrier prodrugs, the bond between the drug moiety and the transport moiety is a covalent bond, the prodrug is inactive or less active than the drug compound, and the prodrug and any release transport moiety are acceptably non-toxic. For prodrugs where the transport moiety is intended to promote uptake, typically the release of the transport moiety should be rapid. In other cases, it is desirable to utilize moieties that provide sustained release, such as certain polymers or other moieties, such as cyclodextrins. (See, for example, Cheng et al., U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2004 / 0077595, incorporated herein by reference.) Such carrier prodrugs are often advantageous for orally administered drugs. Carrier prodrugs can be used, for example, to improve one or more of the following properties: increased lipophilicity, increased duration of pharmacological effect, increased site specificity, reduced toxicity and adverse reactions, and / or improved drug formulation (stability, water solubility, reduced undesirable organoleptic or physicochemical properties). For example, lipophilicity can be increased by esterifying hydroxyl groups with lipophilic carboxylic acids or carboxylic acid groups with alcohols, such as aliphatic alcohols.
[0068] The term "carrier" is also meant to include microspheres, liposomes, micelles, nanoparticles (naturally equipped nanocarriers, e.g., exosomes), etc. It is known that exosomes can be highly effective drug carriers, and there are various methods by which drugs can be loaded into exosomes, including the techniques described in J Control Release, 2015 December 10;219:396-405, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
[0069] Metabolites, for example, active metabolites, overlap with the above-mentioned prodrugs, for example, bioprecursor prodrugs.Thus, such metabolites are compounds that are further metabolized into pharmacologically active compounds, or derivatives that result from metabolic processes in the subject's body.Of these, active metabolites are such pharmacologically active derivative compounds.For prodrugs, prodrug compounds are generally inactive or less active than metabolites.For active metabolites, parent compounds can be active compounds or inactive prodrugs.
[0070] Prodrugs and active metabolites can be identified using routine techniques known in the art.See, for example, Bertolini et al., 1997, J.Med.Chem., 40:2011-2016; Shan et al., 1997, J Pharm Sci 86(7):756-757; Bagshawe, 1995, Drug Dev.Res., 34:220-230; Wermuth.
[0071] "Tautomer" refers to a compound produced by the phenomenon of the transfer of a proton from one atom of a molecule to another atom. See Jerry March, Advanced Organic Chemistry: Reactions, Mechanisms and Structures, Fourth Edition, John Wiley & Sons, pp. 69-74 (1992). Tautomer also refers to one of two or more structural isomers that exist in equilibrium and are easily converted from one isomeric form to another. Examples include keto-enol tautomers such as acetone / propen-2-ol, imine-enamine tautomers, ring-chain tautomers such as glucose / 2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxy-hexanal, and tautomeric forms of heteroaryl groups containing the -N=C(H)-NH- ring atom configuration such as pyrazole, imidazole, benzimidazole, triazole, and tetrazole. When a compound contains, for example, a keto or oxime group, or an aromatic moiety, tautomeric isomerism ("tautomerism") may occur. The compounds described herein may have one or more tautomers, and thus include various isomers. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other tautomeric ring atom arrangements are possible. All such isomeric forms of these compounds are expressly included in the present disclosure.
[0072] "Isomers" refer to compounds that have the same molecular formula but differ in the nature or sequence of bonding of their atoms or in the spatial arrangement of their atoms. Isomers that differ in the spatial arrangement of their atoms are termed "stereoisomers". "Stereoisomer" and "stereoisomers" refer to compounds that exist in different stereoisomeric forms when they possess one or more asymmetric centers or double bonds with asymmetric substitutions and thus can be produced as individual stereoisomers or mixtures. Stereoisomers include enantiomers and diastereomers. Stereoisomers that are not mirror images of each other are termed "diastereomers" and stereoisomers that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other are termed "enantiomers". When a compound has an asymmetric center, for example an atom such as a carbon that is bonded to four different groups, a pair of enantiomers is possible. Enantiomers can be characterized by the absolute configuration of their asymmetric centers, described by the R- and S-sequence rules of Cahn and Prelog, or by the way the molecule rotates the plane of polarized light, and are called dextrorotatory or levorotatory (i.e., as (+) or (-)-isomers, respectively). Chiral compounds can exist as individual enantiomers or as mixtures thereof. A mixture containing equal proportions of enantiomers is called a "racemic mixture." As another example, stereoisomers include geometric isomers, such as cis or trans orientation of substituents on adjacent carbons of a double bond. Unless otherwise indicated, the present description is intended to include individual stereoisomers as well as mixtures. Methods for the determination of stereochemistry and separation of stereoisomers are well known in the art (see discussion in Chapter 4 of ADVANCED ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, 6th edition J. March, John Wiley and Sons, New York, 2007), and differ in the chirality of one or more stereocenters.
[0073] "Hydrate" refers to a complex formed by the combination of water molecules with molecules or ions of a solute. "Solvate" refers to a complex formed by the combination of solvent molecules with molecules or ions of a solute. The solvent can be an organic compound, an inorganic compound, or a mixture of both. Solvate is meant to include hydrates. Some examples of solvents include, but are not limited to, methanol, N,N-dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylsulfoxide, and water. In general, solvated forms are equivalent to unsolvated forms and are included within the scope of the present disclosure.
[0074] In the context of using, testing, or screening compounds that are or may be modulators, the term "contacting" means that the compound is brought into sufficient proximity with a particular molecule, complex, cell, tissue, organism, or other particular substance that a potential binding interaction and / or chemical reaction between the compound and the other particular substance can occur.
[0075] "Assaying" refers to the creation of experimental conditions and the collection of data regarding a particular outcome of exposure to a particular experimental condition. For example, enzymes can be assayed based on their ability to act on a detectable substrate. Compounds can be assayed based on their ability to bind to a particular target molecule or molecules.
[0076] As used herein, the terms "ligand" and "modulator" are used equivalently to refer to a compound that alters (i.e., increases or decreases) the activity of a target biomolecule, e.g., an enzyme, such as those described herein. Generally, a ligand or modulator is a small molecule, "small molecule" refers to a compound having a molecular weight of 1500 daltons or less, 1000 daltons or less, 800 daltons or less, or 600 daltons or less. Thus, an "improved ligand" possesses pharmacological and / or pharmacokinetic properties that are superior to a reference compound, where "superior" can be defined by one of skill in the art with respect to a particular biological system or therapeutic application.
[0077] The term "bind" in reference to the interaction between a target and a potential binding compound indicates that the potential binding compound associates with the target to a statistically significant extent compared to association with proteins in general (i.e., non-specific binding). Thus, the term "binding compound" refers to a compound that has a statistically significant association with a target molecule. In some embodiments, a binding compound has a dissociation constant (K D In the context of a compound that binds to a target, the terms "higher affinity" and "selective" indicate that the compound binds more strongly, i.e., with a lower dissociation constant, than a reference compound or the same compound under reference conditions. In some embodiments, the greater affinity is at least 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 50, 100, 200, 400, 500, 1000, or 10,000 times higher affinity.
[0078] The terms "modulate", "modulation" and the like refer to the ability of a compound to increase or decrease the function and / or expression of a target such as EP300 or CBP, and such functions may include transcriptional regulatory activity and / or binding. Modulation may occur in vitro or in vivo. Modulation as described herein includes inhibition, antagonism, partial antagonism, activation, agonism or partial agonism of a function or characteristic associated with EP300 or CBP, either directly or indirectly, and / or upregulation or downregulation of expression of EP300 or CBP, either directly or indirectly. In other embodiments, the modulation is direct. An inhibitor or antagonist is, for example, a compound that binds to a stimulus, partially or fully blocks the stimulus, reduces, prevents, inhibits, delays, delays activation, inactivates, desensitizes, or downregulates signal transduction. An activator or agonist is, for example, a compound that binds to an activation, stimulates, increases, opens, activates, promotes, enhances it, activates, sensitizes, or upregulates signal transduction.
[0079] As used herein, the terms "treat," "treating," "therapy," "therapies," and similar terms refer to the administration of a substance, e.g., an effective amount of any one or more of the compounds described herein, to prevent, alleviate, or relieve one or more symptoms (i.e., signs) of a disease or condition and / or prolong the survival of the subject being treated.
[0080] As used herein, the terms "prevent", "preventing", "prevention" and grammatical variations thereof refer to a method of partially or completely delaying or preventing the recurrence of a disease, disorder or condition and / or one or more of its attendant symptoms, or preventing a subject from acquiring or re-acquiring a disorder or condition, or reducing the risk of a subject in need of acquiring or in need of a disorder or condition, or one or more of its attendant symptoms.
[0081] As used herein, the terms "subject," "animal subject," and similar terms refer to living organisms, including, but not limited to, humans and non-human vertebrates, e.g., any mammal, such as humans, other primates, sport animals, and commercial animals, such as cows, horses, ovoviviparous animals, pigs, or rodents, or pets, such as dogs and cats.
[0082] "Unit dosage form" refers to a composition intended for single administration to treat a subject suffering from a disease or condition. Each unit dosage form typically contains, in addition to each of the active ingredients of the present disclosure, pharma- ceutically acceptable excipients. Examples of unit dosage forms are individual tablets, individual capsules, bulk powders, liquids, ointments, creams, eye drops, suppositories, emulsions, or suspensions. Treatment of a disease or condition may require periodic administration of a unit dosage form, e.g., one unit dosage form, more than once a day, once with each meal, once every four hours, or at other intervals, or only once a day. The term "oral unit dosage form" refers to a unit dosage form designed to be taken orally.
[0083] The term "administering" refers to oral administration, administration as a suppository, topical contact, intravenous, intraperitoneal, intramuscular, intralesional, intranasal or subcutaneous administration, or implantation of a sustained release device, such as a mini-osmotic pump, into a subject. Administration is by any route, including parenteral and transmucosal (e.g., buccal, sublingual, palatal, gingival, nasal, vaginal, rectal, or transdermal). Parenteral administration includes, for example, intravenous, intramuscular, intraarteriolar, intradermal, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, intraventricular, and intracranial. Other modes of delivery include, but are not limited to, the use of liposomal formulations, intravenous infusion, transdermal patches, and the like.
[0084] In this context, the term "therapeutically effective" or "effective amount" indicates that the compound or material, or the amount of the compound or material, when administered, is sufficient or effective to prevent, alleviate, or ameliorate one or more symptoms of the disease, disorder, or medical condition being treated, and / or to prolong the survival of the subject being treated. The therapeutically effective amount will vary depending on the compound, the disease, disorder, or condition, and its severity, as well as the age, weight, etc., of the mammal being treated. In general, satisfactory results in a subject are indicated to be obtained with a daily dose of about 0.1 to about 10 g per kg of subject body weight. In some embodiments, the daily dose is in the range of about 0.10 to 10.0 mg / kg of body weight, about 1.0 to 3.0 mg / kg of body weight, about 3 to 10 mg / kg of body weight, about 3 to 150 mg / kg of body weight, about 3 to 100 mg / kg of body weight, about 10 to 100 mg / kg of body weight, about 10 to 150 mg / kg of body weight, or about 150 to 1000 mg / kg of body weight. Dosage may be conveniently administered in divided doses, for example up to four times a day, or in sustained release form.
[0085] The ability of a compound to inhibit the function of EP300 or CBP can be demonstrated in a biochemical assay, for example a binding assay, or a cell-based assay.
[0086] As used herein, the term "EP300- or CBP-mediated disease or condition" refers to a disease or condition in which the biological function of EP300, CBP, or both EP300 and CBP influences the onset and / or course of the disease or condition, and / or modulation of EP300, CBP, or both EP300 and CBP alters the onset, course, and / or symptoms. EP300- or CBP-mediated disease or condition includes diseases or conditions in which EP300 inhibition, CBP inhibition, or both EP300 inhibition and CBP inhibition provide a therapeutic benefit, e.g., treatment with an EP300 or CBP inhibitor, including the compounds described herein, provides a therapeutic benefit to a subject suffering from or at risk for the disease or condition. EP300- or CBP-mediated disease or condition is intended to include cancers harboring loss-of-function mutations of CBP or EP300, or cancers in which there is activation of EP300 or CBP. An EP300- or CBP-mediated disease or condition is also intended to include cancers that express the androgen receptor.
[0087] The term "EP300-mediated disease or disorder" includes diseases associated with or involving EP300 activity, such as EP300 hyperactivity and conditions associated with these diseases. The term "EP300 hyperactivity" refers to either 1) EP300 expression in cells that do not normally express EP300, 2) increased EP300 expression resulting in undesirable cell proliferation, or 3) a mutation resulting in constitutive activation of EP300. EP300-mediated diseases or disorders include tumors with CBP inactivating mutations, also known as synthetic lethality. Examples of EP300-mediated diseases or disorders include disorders resulting from abnormally high amounts of EP300 activity. EP300-mediated diseases or conditions are intended to include cancers that harbor loss-of-function mutations in CBP or cancers in which there is activation of EP300. EP300-mediated diseases or conditions are also intended to include cancers that express the androgen receptor. Hyperactivity of EP300 is known to be involved in the pathogenesis of many diseases, including proliferative and non-proliferative disorders, including neoplastic disorders and cancer, inflammatory disorders, cognitive disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases.
[0088] The term "CBP-mediated disease or disorder" includes diseases associated with or involving CBP activity, such as overactivity of CBP, and conditions associated with these diseases. The term "overactivity of CBP" refers to either 1) CBP expression in cells that do not normally express CBP, 2) increased CBP expression resulting in undesirable cell proliferation, or 3) a mutation resulting in constitutive activation of CBP. Examples of CBP-mediated diseases or disorders include disorders resulting from abnormally high amounts of CBP activity. CBP-mediated diseases or conditions are intended to include cancers that harbor loss-of-function mutations of EP300 or cancers in which there is activation of CBP. CBP-mediated diseases or conditions are also intended to include cancers that express the androgen receptor. Overactivity of CBP is known to be involved in the pathogenesis of many diseases, including proliferative and non-proliferative disorders, including neoplastic disorders and cancers, inflammatory disorders, cognitive disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases.
[0089] Also, in the context of a compound that binds to a biomolecular target, the term "higher specificity" indicates that the compound binds to a particular target to a greater extent than another biomolecule or biomolecules that may be present under the relevant binding conditions, and that binding to such other biomolecules results in a biological activity that is different from binding to the particular target. Typically, the specificity is relative to a limited set of other biomolecules, for example, in the case of EP300, CBP, or other epigenetic targets. In certain embodiments, the greater specificity is at least 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 50, 100, 200, 400, 500, or 1000 times more specific.
[0090] When used herein in relation to a binding compound or ligand, the term "specific for EP300" and terms of similar meaning mean that a particular compound binds to EP300 to a statistically greater extent than to other epigenetic targets that may be present in a particular sample. Also, when biological activities other than binding are indicated, the term "specific for EP300" indicates a greater biological effect, such as enzyme activity inhibition, associated with the binding of a particular compound to EP300 than to other enzymes. Specificity is also with respect to other biomolecules (not limited to EP300 enzyme) that may be present in a particular sample.
[0091] When used herein in connection with a binding compound or ligand, the term "specific for CBP" and terms of similar meaning mean that a particular compound binds to CBP to a statistically greater extent than to other epigenetic targets that may be present in a particular sample. In addition, when biological activities other than binding are indicated, the term "specific for CBP" indicates a superior biological effect, such as enzyme activity inhibition, associated with the binding of a particular compound to CBP, compared to other enzymes. Specificity is also with respect to other biomolecules (not limited to CBP) that may be present in a particular sample.
[0092] The term "first-line cancer therapy" refers to a therapy administered to a subject as an initial regimen to reduce the number of cancer cells. First-line therapy is also called induction therapy, primary therapy, and primary treatment. First-line therapy can be administered in combination with one or more drugs. A summary of the currently accepted approach to first-line treatment for a particular disease can be found in the NCI guidelines for such disease.
[0093] The term "second-line cancer therapy" refers to a cancer treatment administered to subjects who do not respond to first-line therapy, i.e., who often undergo first-line therapy or who experience a recurrence of cancer after going into remission. In certain embodiments, the second-line therapy that can be administered includes a repeat of the initial successful cancer therapy, which can be any of the treatments described in "first-line cancer therapy". A summary of currently accepted approaches to second-line therapy for a particular disease is described in the NCI guidelines for such disease.
[0094] The term "refractory" refers to a subject that does not respond to or is otherwise resistant to a cancer therapy or treatment. The cancer therapy can be a first-line, second-line, or any subsequent treatment. In certain embodiments, refractory refers to a state in which a subject cannot achieve complete remission after two induction attempts. A subject can be refractory due to the inherent resistance of cancer cells to a particular therapy, or a subject can be refractory due to acquired resistance that occurs during or following the course of a particular therapy.

[0293] Embodiment 22 relates to a compound according to embodiment 1 of the present disclosure selected from Table 1 of the present disclosure, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof.
[0294] The compounds contemplated herein are described with reference to both general formulas and specific compounds.In addition, all compounds described herein may exist in several different forms or derivatives within the scope of this disclosure.These include, for example, tautomers, stereoisomers, racemic mixtures, positional isomers, salts, prodrugs (e.g., carboxylic acid esters), solvated forms, and active metabolites.
[0295] It is understood that some compounds may exhibit tautomerism.In such cases, the formula provided herein expressly shows only one of possible tautomeric forms.Therefore, it should be understood that the formula provided herein is intended to represent any tautomeric form of the compound shown, and should not be limited to the specific tautomeric form shown by the drawing of the formula.
[0296] Likewise, some of the compounds described in this disclosure may exist as stereoisomers as defined herein.All such single stereoisomers, racemates and mixtures thereof are intended to be within the scope of this disclosure.Unless otherwise specified, all such stereoisomeric forms are included within the formula provided herein.
[0297] In some embodiments, the chiral compounds of the present disclosure are in a form that contains at least 80% (60% enantiomeric excess ("ee") or diastereomeric excess ("de")) of a single isomer, or at least 85% (70% ee or de), 90% (80% ee or de), 95% (90% ee or de), 97.5% (95% ee or de), or 99% (98% ee or de). As will generally be understood by those of skill in the art, an optically pure compound having one chiral center is one that consists essentially of one of the two possible enantiomers (i.e., is enantiomerically pure), and an optically pure compound having multiple chiral centers is both diastereomerically pure and enantiomerically pure. In some embodiments, the compound is present in an optically pure form.
[0298] For compounds whose synthesis involves the addition of a single group at a double bond, particularly a carbon-carbon double bond, the addition can occur at either of the double bond-bonding atoms. With respect to such compounds, the present disclosure includes both such positional isomers.
[0299] In addition to the present formulas and compounds described herein, the present disclosure also includes prodrugs (generally pharma- ceutically acceptable prodrugs), active metabolic derivatives (active metabolites), and pharma- ceutically acceptable salts thereof.
[0300] Unless specified to the contrary, references to compounds herein include pharma- ceutically acceptable salts of such compounds.
[0301] In some embodiments, the compounds of the present disclosure form complexes with acids or bases, including base addition salts such as ammonium, diethylamine, ethanolamine, ethylenediamine, diethanolamine, t-butylamine, piperazine, meglumine; acid addition salts such as acetate, acetylsalicylate, besylate, camsylate, citrate, formate, fumarate, glutarate, hydrochloride, maleate, mesylate, nitrate, oxalate, phosphate, succinate, sulfate, tartrate, thiocyanate, and tosylate; and amino acids such as alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamine, glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine, or valine. In some cases, the amorphous complex is facilitated by further processing, such as mechanochemical methods such as spray drying, roller compaction, or microwave irradiation of the parent compound mixed with acid or base. Such methods may also include the addition of ionic and / or non-ionic polymeric systems, including but not limited to hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS) and methacrylic acid copolymers (e.g., Eudragit® L100-55), which further stabilize the amorphous nature of the complex. Such amorphous complexes offer several advantages. For example, the reduced melting temperature compared to the free base facilitates additional processing, such as hot melt extrusion, to further improve the biopharmaceutical properties of the compound. Also, amorphous complexes are easily friable, improving compression for filling the solid into capsule or tablet forms.
[0302] In addition, the formula is intended to encompass hydrated or solvated forms as well as non-hydrated or unsolvated forms of the identified structures. For example, the compounds shown include both hydrated and non-hydrated forms. Other examples of solvates include the structures in combination with a suitable solvent, such as isopropanol, ethanol, methanol, dimethylsulfoxide, ethyl acetate, acetic acid, or ethanolamine.

[0345] Bromodomains (e.g., BET proteins such as BRD2, BRD3, BRD4, and / or BRDT) and diseases associated with, for example, aberrant expression of bromodomains include, among others, cell proliferation disorders, cancer, chronic autoimmune, and inflammatory conditions. Non-limiting examples of BET inhibitors include PLX1107, GSK1210151A, and GSK525762.
[0346] Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDAC inhibitors) are cytostatic agents that inhibit the growth of tumor cells in culture and in vivo by inducing cell cycle arrest, differentiation, and / or apoptosis. HDAC inhibitors exert their antitumor effects through the induction of altered expression of oncogenes or tumor suppressors by regulating the acetylation / deacetylation of histones and / or non-histone proteins such as transcription factors. Histone acetylation and deacetylation play an important role in regulating chromatin topology and controlling gene transcription. Non-limiting examples of HDAC inhibitors include vorinostat, romidepsin, chidamide, panobinostat, belinostat, valproic acid, mocetinostat, abexinostat, entinostat, resminostat, divinostat, and xinostat. HDAC inhibitors have been widely used in psychiatry and neurology as mood stabilizers and antiepileptic agents. One example of this is valproic acid, marketed as a drug under the trade names Depakene, Depakote, and Divalproex. HDAC inhibitors are also used as mitigating agents for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Huntington's disease.

The compound or composition may be packaged in a unit dose or single dose form, for example, a single dose pill, capsule, or the like.
[0349] VII. Binding Assays The method of the present disclosure may include an assay that can detect the binding of a compound to a target molecule. Such binding is at a statistically significant level, with at least a 90% confidence level, or at least a 95, 97, 98, 99% or higher confidence level, that the assay signal represents the binding to the target molecule, i.e., is distinguished from background. In some embodiments, a control is used to distinguish target binding from non-specific binding. A wide variety of assays that show binding are known for different target types and can be used in the present disclosure.
[0350] Binding compounds can be characterized by their effect on the activity of the target molecule. Thus, a "low activity" compound is one that has an inhibitory concentration (IC) of greater than 1 μM under standard conditions. 50 ) or effective concentration (EC 50 "Very low activity" is defined as an IC of more than 100 μM under standard conditions. 50 or EC50 "Very low activity" means an IC50 activity of more than 1 mM under standard conditions. 50 or EC 50 "Moderate activity" means an IC of 200 nM to 1 μM under standard conditions. 50 or EC 50 "Slightly high activity" means an IC of 1 nM to 200 nM. 50 or EC 50 "High activity" means an IC of less than 1 nM under standard conditions. 50 or EC 50 It stands for IC 50 or EC 50 is defined as the concentration of a compound at which 50% of the target molecule (e.g., an enzyme or other protein) activity being measured is lost or gained, relative to the range of activity observed in the absence of the compound. Methods known to those of skill in the art can be used to measure activity, for example, by measuring any detectable product or signal produced by the occurrence of an enzymatic reaction, or other activity by the protein being measured.
[0351] "Background signal" in the context of binding assays means the signal recorded under standard conditions for a particular assay in the absence of a test compound, molecular scaffold, or ligand that binds to the target molecule. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that accepted methods exist and are widely available for determining background signal.
[0352] "Standard deviation" means the square root of the variance. Variance is a measure of how spread out a distribution is. It is calculated as the average squared deviation of each number from the mean. For example, for the numbers 1, 2, and 3, the mean is 2 and the variance is:
number
[0353] Surface plasmon resonance Binding parameters can be measured using surface plasmon resonance, for example, using a BIAcore® chip (BIAcore, Japan) coated with immobilized binding moieties. Surface plasmon resonance is used to characterize the microscopic association and dissociation constants of the reaction between sFv or other ligands to target molecules. Such methods are generally described in the following references, which are incorporated herein by reference: Vely F. et al., (2000) BIAcore® analysis to test phosphopeptide-SH2 domain interactions, Methods in Molecular Biology.121:313-21, Lipschultz et al., (1999) Biosensor analysis of the interleukin-2 receptor complex, Journal of Molecular Recognition.12:316-21, Lipschultz et al. al.,(2000)Experimental design for analysis of complex kinetics using surface plasmon resonance,Methods.20(3):310-8,Malmqvist.,(1999)BIACORE: an affinity biosensor system for characterization of biomolecular interactions,Biochemical Society Transactions 27:335-40,Alfthan,(1998)Surface plasmon resonance biosensors as a tool in antibody engineering,Biosensors&Bioelectronics.13:653-63, Fivash et al.,(1998)BIAcore for macromolecular interaction, Current Opinion in Biotechnology.9:97-101, Price et al.;(1998)Summary report on the ISOBM TD-4 Workshop:analysis of 56 monoclonal antibodies against the MUC1 mucin.Tumour Biology 19 Suppl 1:1-20、Malmqvist et al,(1997)Biomolecular interaction analysis:affinity biosensor technologies for functional analysis of proteins,Current Opinion in Chemical Biology.1:378-83、O’Shannessy et al.,(1996)Interpretation of deviations from pseudo-first-order kinetic behavior in the characterization of ligand binding by biosensor technology,Analytical Biochemistry.236:275-83、Malmborg et al.,(1995)BIAcore as a tool in antibody engineering,Journal of Immunological Methods.183:7-13、Van Regenmortel,(1994)Use of biosensors to characterize recombinant proteins,Developments in Biological Standardization.83:143-51、およびO’Shannessy,(1994)Determination of kinetic rate and equilibrium binding constants for macromolecular interactions:a critique of the surface plasmon resonance literature,Current Opinions in Biotechnology.5:65-71。.
[0354] BIAcore® uses the optical properties of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) to detect changes in the concentration of proteins bound to a dextran matrix (dextran biosensor matrix) on the surface of a gold / glass sensor chip interface. Briefly, proteins are covalently bound to the dextran matrix at known concentrations, and ligands for the proteins are injected through the dextran matrix. Near-infrared light directed to the opposite side of the sensor chip surface is reflected and induces an evanescent wave in the gold film, which in turn causes an intensity drop in the reflected light at a specific angle, known as the resonance angle. When the refractive index of the sensor chip surface changes (e.g., by binding of a ligand to the binding protein), a shift in the resonance angle occurs. This angle shift can be measured, and 1000 RU corresponds to 1 ng / mm 2 These changes are expressed as resonance units (RU) to correspond to changes in surface protein concentration. These changes are displayed with respect to time along the y-axis of the sensorgram, and represent the association and dissociation of any biological response.
[0355] High Throughput Screening (HTS) Assays HTS typically uses automated assays to search large numbers of compounds for a desired activity. Typically, HTS assays are used to find new drugs by screening chemicals that act on a specific enzyme or molecule. For example, if a chemical inactivates an enzyme, it may prove effective in preventing a process within a cell that causes disease. High-throughput methods allow researchers to very rapidly analyze thousands of different chemicals against each target molecule, using robotic handling systems and automated analysis of the results.
[0356] As used herein, "high throughput screening" or "HTS" refers to the rapid in vitro screening of large numbers of compounds (libraries) (typically tens to hundreds of thousands of compounds) using robotic screening assays. Ultra high throughput screening (uHTS) generally refers to high throughput screening accelerated to 100,000 tests per day.
[0357] To achieve high throughput screening, it is advantageous to accommodate samples on a multi-container carrier or platform. Multi-container carriers facilitate the simultaneous measurement of the response of multiple candidate compounds. Multi-well microplates can be used as carriers. Such multi-well microplates and methods for their use in multiple assays are known in the art and commercially available.
[0358] Screening assays may include controls for the purpose of calibration and confirmation of proper operation of the components of the assay. Empty wells containing all reactants but no members of the chemical library are usually included. As another example, a known inhibitor (or activator) of the enzyme for which a modulator is sought can be incubated with one sample of the assay, and the resulting decrease (or increase) in enzyme activity is used as a comparator or control. It will also be understood that modulators can be combined with enzyme activators or inhibitors to find modulators that inhibit enzyme activation or inhibition otherwise caused by the presence of a known enzyme modulator.
[0359] Measurement of enzymatic and binding reactions during screening assays Techniques for measuring the progress of enzymatic and binding reactions, for example in multicontainer carriers, are known in the art and include, but are not limited to, the following.
[0360] Spectrophotometric and spectrofluorometric assays are well known in the art. Examples of such assays include the use of colorimetric assays for the detection of peroxide, as described in Gordon, AJ and Ford, RA, (1972) The Chemist's Companion: A Handbook Of Practical Data, Techniques, And References, John Wiley and Sons, NY, Page 437.
[0361] Fluorescence spectroscopy can be used to monitor the formation of reaction products. Fluorescence methods are generally more sensitive than absorption methods. The use of fluorescent probes is well known to those skilled in the art. For reviews, see Bashford et al., (1987) Spectrophotometry and Spectrofluorometry: A Practical Approach, pp. 91-114, IRL Press Ltd., and Bell, (1981) Spectroscopy In Biochemistry, Vol. I, pp. 155-194, CRC Press.
[0362] In spectrofluorometry, enzymes are exposed to substrates that change their intrinsic fluorescence when processed by the target enzyme. Typically, the substrates are non-fluorescent and are converted to fluorophores through one or more reactions. As a non-limiting example, SMase activity can be detected using Amplex® Red reagent (Molecular Probes, Eugene, OR). To measure sphingomyelinase activity using Amplex® Red, the following reactions occur: First, SMase hydrolyzes sphingomyelin to produce ceramide and phosphorylcholine. Second, alkaline phosphatase hydrolyzes phosphorylcholine to produce choline. Third, choline is oxidized to betaine by choline oxidase. Finally, H in the presence of horseradish peroxidase is converted to fluorophore oxidized to ceramide and phosphorylcholine. 2 O 2reacts with Amplex® Red to produce a fluorescent product, resorufin, from which signal is detected using spectroscopy.
[0363] Fluorescence polarization (FP) is based on the reduction in the molecular rotation rate of a fluorophore that occurs upon binding to a larger molecule, such as a receptor protein, allowing polarized fluorescence emission by the bound ligand. FP is determined empirically by measuring the vertical and horizontal components of the fluorophore emission after excitation with plane polarized light. Polarized emission increases when the molecular rotation of the fluorophore decreases. A fluorophore produces a larger polarized signal when it binds to a larger molecule (i.e., a receptor), slowing the molecular rotation of the fluorophore. The magnitude of the polarized signal is quantitatively related to the degree of fluorescent ligand binding. Thus, polarization of the "bound" signal is dependent on the maintenance of high affinity binding.
[0364] FP is a homogeneous technique and the reaction is very fast, taking seconds to minutes to reach equilibrium. The reagents are stable and large batches can be prepared, resulting in high reproducibility. Because of these properties, FP has proven highly automatable and is often performed in a single incubation with a single premixed tracer-receptor reagent. For a review, see Owicki et al., (1997), Application of Fluorescence Polarization Assays in High-Throughput Screening, Genetic Engineering News, 17:27.
[0365] FPs are particularly desirable because the readout is independent of emission intensity (Checovich, WJ, et al., (1995) Nature 375:254-256; Dandliker, WB, et al., (1981) Methods in Enzymology 74:3-28), and therefore insensitive to the presence of colored compounds that quench the fluorescence emission. FPs and FRET (see below) are well suited to identifying compounds that block the interaction between sphingolipid receptors and their ligands. See, for example, Parker et al., (2000) Development of high throughput screening assays using fluorescence polarization: nuclear receptor-ligand-binding and kinase / phosphatase assays, J Biomol Screen 5:77-88.
[0366] Sphingolipid-derived fluorophores that can be used in FP assays are commercially available, for example, Molecular Probes (Eugene, OR) currently sells sphingomyelin and one ceramide fluorophore. These are N-(4,4-difluoro-5,7-dimethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene-3-pentanoyl)sphingosylphosphocholine (BODIPY® FL C5-sphingomyelin), N-(4,4-difluoro-5,7-dimethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene-3-dodecanoyl)sphingosylphosphocholine (BODIPY® FL C12-sphingomyelin), and N-(4,4-difluoro-5,7-dimethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene-3-pentanoyl)sphingosine (BODIPY® FL C5-ceramide), respectively. No. 4,150,949 (Immunoassay for Gentamicin) discloses fluorescein-labeled gentamicin, including fluoresceinthiocarbanyl gentamicin. Additional fluorophores can be prepared using methods well known to those skilled in the art.
[0367] Exemplary vertical polarization fluorescence readers include the POLARION® Fluorescence Polarization System (Tecan AG, Hombrechtikon, Switzerland). General multi-well plate readers for other assays are available, such as the VERSAMAX® reader and the SPECTRAMAX® multi-well plate spectrophotometer (both from Molecular Devices).
[0368] Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) is another useful assay for detecting interactions and has been described. See, for example, Heim et al., (1996) Curr. Biol. 6:178-182, Mitra et al., (1996) Gene 173:13-17, and Selvin et al., (1995) Meth. Enzymol. 246:300-345. FRET detects the energy transfer between two fluorophores in close proximity with known excitation and emission wavelengths. As an example, a protein can be expressed as a fusion protein with green fluorescent protein (GFP). When two fluorescent proteins are in close proximity, such as when a protein specifically interacts with a target molecule, resonance energy can be transferred from one excited molecule to the other excited molecule. As a result, the emission spectrum of the sample shifts, which can be measured by a fluorometer such as an fMAX multiwell fluorometer (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale Calif.).
[0369] Scintillation proximity assay (SPA) is a particularly useful assay for detecting interaction with target molecules.SPA has been widely used and described in the pharmaceutical industry (Hanselman et al., (1997) J. Lipid Res. 38: 2365-2373; Kahl et al., (1996) Anal. Biochem. 243: 282-283; Undenfriend et al., (1987) Anal. Biochem. 161: 494-500).See also U.S. Patent Nos. 4,626,513 and 4,568,649, and European Patent No. 0,154,734.One commercially available system uses FLASHPLATE® scintillant-coated plates (NEN Life Science Products, Boston, MA).
[0370] The target molecule can be bound to the scintillator plate by various well-known means. Scintillant plates are available that are derivatized to bind fusion proteins, such as GST, His6, or Flag fusion proteins. If the target molecule is a protein complex or multimer, one protein or subunit can be attached to the plate first, and then the other components of the complex can be added later under binding conditions to obtain a bound complex.
[0371] In a typical SPA assay, gene products in the expression pool are radioactively labeled, added to the wells, and allowed to interact with the solid phase (immobilized target molecules in the wells and the scintillant coating). The assay can be measured immediately or allowed to reach equilibrium. Either way, if the radioactive label gets close enough to the scintillant coating, it will generate a signal that is detectable by an instrument such as a TOPCOUNT NXT® Microplate Scintillation Counter (Packard BioScience Co., Meriden Conn.). If the radioactively labeled expression product binds to the target molecule, the radioactive label will remain in close proximity to the scintillant long enough to produce a detectable signal.
[0372] In contrast, labeled proteins that do not bind to the target molecule or bind only briefly will not remain near the scintillant long enough to generate a signal above background. Any time spent near the scintillant caused by random Brownian motion will not result in a significant amount of signal. Similarly, there may be residual unincorporated radiolabel used during the expression step, but it will not generate a significant signal because it is in solution rather than interacting with the target molecule. Thus, these non-binding interactions will cause a certain level of background signal that can be mathematically removed. If too much signal is obtained, salts or other modifiers can be added directly to the assay plate until the desired specificity is obtained (Nichols et al., (1998) Anal. Biochem. 257:112-119).
[0373] General Synthesis Compounds can be prepared using the methods disclosed herein and their routine modifications that are obvious in light of the disclosure herein, as well as methods well known in the art.In addition to the teachings herein, conventional well-known synthetic methods can be used.The synthesis of typical compounds described herein can be achieved as described in the following examples.When available, reagents can be purchased commercially, for example, from Sigma Aldrich or other chemical suppliers.
[0374] The compounds of the present disclosure can be prepared, for example, from readily available starting materials using the following general methods and procedures. Where typical or preferred process conditions (i.e., reaction temperature, time, molar ratio of reactants, solvent, pressure, etc.) are given, it will be understood that other process conditions can also be used unless otherwise stated. Optimum reaction conditions may vary with the particular reactants or solvents used, but such conditions can be determined by one skilled in the art by routine optimization procedures.
[0375] In addition, as will be apparent to those skilled in the art, conventional protective groups may be required to prevent certain functional groups from undergoing undesired reactions.Protective groups suitable for various functional groups, as well as suitable conditions for protecting and deprotecting certain functional groups, are well known in the art.For example, many protective groups are described in Wuts, PGM, Greene, TW, & Greene, TW (2006).Greene's protective groups in organic synthesis.Hoboken, NJ, Wiley-Interscience, and references cited therein.
[0376] The compounds of the present disclosure may contain one or more asymmetric or chiral centers. Thus, if desired, such compounds can be prepared or isolated as pure stereoisomers, i.e., as individual enantiomers or diastereomers, or as stereoisomer-enriched mixtures. Unless otherwise specified, all such stereoisomers (and enriched mixtures) are within the scope of the present disclosure. Pure stereoisomers (or enriched mixtures) can be prepared, for example, using optically active starting materials or stereoselective reagents well known in the art. Alternatively, racemic mixtures of such compounds can be separated, for example, using chiral column chromatography, supercritical fluid chromatography, chiral seed crystals, chiral resolving agents, and the like.

[0497] Biological Examples Biological Test Methods The following assays were used to test the compounds of the present disclosure. EP300 Alphascreen binding assay Binding of compounds of formula (I) to EP300 was assessed using the Alphascreen™ binding assay. Inhibition of the interaction between EP300 bromodomain and its acetylated target protein was quantitatively measured using recombinant EP300 protein, acetylated histone 3 peptide, and AlphaScreen™ technology. In the absence of inhibition, EP300 protein bound to AlphaScreen™ nickel chelate acceptor beads may interact with acetylated histone 3 peptide immobilized by AlphaScreen™ streptavidin coated beads. This interaction brings the donor and acceptor beads into close proximity. Due to the close proximity, singlet oxygen generated by laser excitation of the donor beads can reach the acceptor beads and generate a luminescent signal. EP300 inhibitors result in a decrease in the proximity signal through inhibition of the EP300-acetylated peptide interaction.
[0498] Recombinant human EP300 containing the bromodomain (EP300-BD(1040-1161)) was prepared and purified as described in the Protein Expression and Purification session. The peptide was synthesized from human histone H3 45~64 K56 Ac -Biotin (Anaspec CA, USA).
[0499] EP300 assay protocol: All components were prepared in a buffer consisting of 50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 50 mM NaCl, 0.01% BSA, 0.01% Triton X-100, 2 mM DTT. Test compounds and DMSO vehicle were diluted 1:50 in the buffer and a volume of 4 μL was transferred to an Alphaplate. 5.5 μL of EP300 protein and 5.5 μL of peptide were added to wells containing 4 μL of various concentrations of test compounds of formula (I) or DMSO vehicle in an Alphaplate (PerkinElmer GA, USA) and incubated for 1 hour at room temperature. Then, 5 μL of a mixture of donor and acceptor beads was added at a final concentration of 7.5 μg / ml. 60 minutes after the addition of the beads, the alpha signal is read on an Envision spectrometer (lambda Ex 680nm, λ Em The final concentrations of bromodomain proteins and peptides are as shown below. [Table 3]
[0500] All data were normalized to the average of 16 high and 16 low control wells on each plate. A four parameter curve fit of the following formula was then applied:

[0501] Protein expression and purification Recombinant human EP300 bromodomain (EP300-BD(1040–1161)) was expressed in E. coli cells (modified pET vector) with an N-terminal 6-His tag and purified using a combination of both IMAC (Ni-affinity) and size-exclusion chromatography steps.
[0502] Recombinant EP300 protein was expressed using E. coli strain BL21-CodonPlus(DE3) (Agilent Technologies CA, USA). Cells were grown in Terrific Broth (TB) medium at 37°C until OD600 reached 0.7, at which point the temperature was reduced to 18°C and protein was harvested by induction with 1.0 mM isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside ("IPTG") for 20 hours and centrifugation at 8500 x g for 20 minutes. Cells were cultured in 0.1 MK 1000 mL PBS containing 0.2 mg / ml lysozyme, 0.2 mM phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride ("PMSF"), 25 μg / ml DNase I, and 0.5 mM phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride ("PMSF"), ... 2 PO 4 The cells were resuspended in pH 8.0, 250 mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, 0.75% NP-40, 25 mM imidazole, incubated on ice for 30 min, and lysed with a cell disrupter (MicroFluidics MA, USA). The lysate was clarified by centrifugation at 20,000×g for 1 h. Proteins were captured with Ni-NTA resin (Life Technologies, USA). Contaminating proteins were washed off with 50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, and 5% glycerol. After three washing steps, proteins were stepwise eluted using 10, 25, 50, 100, 150, and 250 mM imidazole in 50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, and 5% glycerol. The protein was further purified using a size exclusion column (26 / 600 Superdex 200, GE Biosciences NJ, USA) in 10 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 500.
[0503] BRD4 Alphascreen binding assay Binding of compounds of formula (I) to BRD4 was assessed using the Alphascreen binding assay. Inhibition of the interaction between BRD4 and its acetylated target protein was quantitatively measured using recombinant BRD4 protein, acetylated histone 4 peptide, and AlphaScreen™ technology. In the absence of inhibition, BRD4 protein bound to AlphaScreen™ nickel-chelating acceptor beads may interact with acetylated histone 4 peptide immobilized by AlphaScreen™ streptavidin-coated beads. This interaction brings the donor and acceptor beads into close proximity. Due to the close proximity, singlet oxygen generated by laser excitation of the donor beads can reach the acceptor beads and generate a luminescence signal. BRD4 inhibitors result in a decrease in the proximity signal through inhibition of the BRD4-acetylated peptide interaction.
[0504] Recombinant human BRD4 containing the bromodomain (BRD4-BD12(1-477)) was prepared and purified as described in the Protein Expression and Purification session. The peptide was synthesized from human histone H4 1~21 K5 Ac K8 Ac K12 Ac K16 Ac -biotin (Anaspec CA, USA).
[0505] Protocol for the BRD4 assay: All components are prepared in a buffer consisting of 50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 50 mM NaCl, 0.01% BSA, 0.01% Triton X-100, 2 mM DTT. Test compounds and DMSO vehicle were diluted 1:50 in the buffer and a volume of 4 μL was transferred to an Alphaplate. 5.5 μL of bromodomain protein and 5.5 μL of peptide were added to wells containing 4 μL of various concentrations of test compounds of formula (I) or DMSO vehicle in an Alphaplate (PerkinElmer GA, USA) and incubated for 1 hour at room temperature. Then, 5 μL of a mixture of donor and acceptor beads was added at a final concentration of 7.5 μg / ml. Thirty minutes after the addition of the beads, the alpha signal was read on an Envision spectrometer (λ Ex 680nm, λ Em The final concentrations of bromodomain proteins and peptides are as shown below. [Table 4]
[0506] All data were normalized to the average of 16 high and 16 low control wells on each plate. A four parameter curve fit of the following formula was then applied:
number
[0507] Protein expression and purification Recombinant human BRD4 containing dual bromodomains (BRD4-BD12(1–477)) was expressed in E. coli cells (modified pET vector) with an N-terminal 6-His tag and purified using a combination of both IMAC (Ni-affinity) and size-exclusion chromatography steps.
[0508] Recombinant BRD4 was expressed using E. coli strain BL21-CodonPlus(DE3) (Agilent Technologies CA, USA). Cells were grown in Terrific Broth (TB) medium at 37°C until an OD600 of 2.0 was reached, at which point the temperature was reduced to 18°C and protein was harvested by induction with 0.1 mM isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside ("IPTG") for 12-18 hours and centrifugation at 8000×g for 20 minutes. Cells were resuspended in 40 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 0.5 M NaCl, 25 mM imidazole, 5% glycerol, 1 / 200 volume of protease inhibitor cocktail set III (Calbiochem), 5 mM β-mercaptoethanol ("BME"), 0.5 mg / mL lysozyme, and 0.5 mg / mL DNaseI, incubated on ice for 30 minutes, and lysed with a cell disrupter (MicroFluidics MA, USA). Lysates were clarified by centrifugation at 20,000×g for 2 hours. Proteins were captured with Ni-NTA resin (Life Technologies, USA). Contaminating proteins were washed away with 40 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 0.5 M NaCl, 25 mM imidazole, 5% glycerol, and 5 mM BME. After three washing steps, the protein was stepwise eluted in wash buffer containing 50, 100, 150, and 500 mM imidazole. The protein was further purified using a Gel Filtration column 16 / 60 Superdex 200 (GE Biosciences NJ, USA) in 10 mM HEPES pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, and 5 mM DTT. Glycerol was added to a final concentration of 12%, and the protein was aliquoted and flash frozen in liquid nitrogen.
[0509] CBP Alphascreen binding assay Binding of compounds of formula (I) to CBP was assessed using the Alphascreen™ binding assay. Inhibition of the interaction between the CBP bromodomain and its acetylated target protein was quantitatively measured using recombinant CBP, acetylated histone 3 peptide, and AlphaScreen™ technology. In the absence of inhibition, CBP protein bound to AlphaScreen™ nickel-chelating acceptor beads may interact with acetylated histone 3 peptide immobilized by AlphaScreen™ streptavidin-coated beads. This interaction brings the donor and acceptor beads into close proximity. Due to the close proximity, singlet oxygen generated by laser excitation of the donor beads can reach the acceptor beads and generate a luminescence signal. CBP inhibitors result in a decrease in the proximity signal through inhibition of the CBP-acetylated peptide interaction.
[0510] Recombinant human CBP containing the bromodomain (CBP-BD(1043-1159)) was prepared and purified as described in the Protein Expression and Purification session. The peptide was human histone H345-64K56Ac-biotin (Anaspec CA, USA).
[0511] Protocol for CBP assay: All components are prepared in a buffer consisting of 50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 50 mM NaCl, 0.01% BSA, 0.01% Triton X-100, 2 mM DTT. Test compounds and DMSO vehicle were diluted 1:50 in the buffer and a volume of 4 μL was transferred to an Alphaplate. 5.5 μL of CBP protein and 5.5 μL of peptide were added to wells containing 4 μL of various concentrations of test compounds of formula (I) or DMSO vehicle in an Alphaplate (PerkinElmer GA, USA) and incubated for 1 h at room temperature. Then, 5 μL of a mixture of donor and acceptor beads was added at a final concentration of 7.5 μg / ml. 60 min after adding the beads, the alpha signal was read on an Envision spectrometer (λE×680 nm, λEm520-620 nm). Final concentrations of bromodomain proteins and peptides are as indicated below. [Table 5]

[0514] Recombinant CBP protein was expressed using E. coli strain BL21-CodonPlus(DE3) (Agilent Technologies CA, USA). Cells were grown in Terrific Broth (TB) medium at 37°C until OD600 reached 0.92, at which point the temperature was reduced to 20°C and protein was harvested by induction with 1.0 mM isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside ("IPTG") for 20 hours and centrifugation at 8500×g for 20 minutes. Cells were resuspended in 0.1 M K2PO4 pH 8.0, 250 mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, 0.75% NP-40, 25 mM imidazole, containing 0.2 mg / ml lysozyme, 0.2 mM phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride ("PMSF"), 0.5 β-mercaptoethanol ("BME"), 25 μg / ml DNase I, incubated on ice for 30 minutes, and lysed with a cell disrupter (MicroFluidics MA, USA).
