[0001] STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT This invention was made with government support under Grant No. R01 CA201049 awarded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The government has certain rights in this invention.
[0002] Related Applications This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 933,776, filed November 11, 2019, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 030,655, filed May 27, 2020, the contents of which are incorporated herein in their entireties. [Background technology]
[0003] The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, Erb-B1) belongs to the receptor tyrosine kinase family that mediates the proliferation, differentiation and survival of normal and malignant cells (Arteaga, CL, J. Clin. Oncol. 19, 2001, pp. 32-40). Deregulation of EGFR has been implicated in many types of human cancer, with the receptor being overexpressed in at least 70% of human cancers (Seymour, LK, Curr. Drug Targets 2, 2001, pp. 117-133), including non-small cell lung cancer, breast cancer, glioma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and prostate cancer (Raymond, E. et al., Drugs 60(Suppl. 1), 2000, pp. 15-23, discussion pp. 41-2; Salomon, DS et al., Crit. Rev. Oncol. Hematol. 19, 1995, pp. 183-232; Voldborg BR et al., Ann. Oncol. 8, 1997, pp. 1197-1206). Therefore, EGFR has become known as an attractive target for the design and development of diagnostic and therapeutic agents that can specifically bind to and inhibit the tyrosine kinase activity and signal transduction pathway of the receptor in cancer cells. For example, the EGFR tyrosine kinase (EGFR-TK) reversible inhibitor TARCEVA R™ has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of NSCLC and advanced pancreatic cancer. Other anti-EGFR targeting molecules, including lapatinib R™ and IRESSA R™, have also been approved.
[0004] Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are an effective clinical treatment for patients with EGFR-mutated advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (Mok, TS et al., N. Engl. J. Med. 361, 2009, pp. 947-57; Paez, JG et al., Science 304, 2004, pp. 1497-500; Lynch, TJ et al., N. Engl. J. Med. 350, 2004, pp. 2129-39; Rosell, R. et al., Lancet Oncol. 13, 2012, pp. 239-46). Randomized clinical trials have demonstrated that EGFR TKIs are more effective than chemotherapy when used as initial systemic treatment for advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC, as assessed by response rate (RR) and progression-free survival (PFS) (Mok, TS et al., N. Engl. J. Med. 361, 2009, pp. 947-57; Rosell, R. et al., Lancet Oncol. 13, 2012, pp. 239-46; Sequest, LV et al., J. Clin. Oncol. 31, 2013, pp. 3327-34; Wu, YL et al., Lancet Oncol. 15, 2014, pp. 213-22; Maemondo, M. et al., N. Engl. J. Med. 362, 2010, pp. 2380-2388; Zhou, C. et al., Lancet Oncol. 12, 2011, pp. 735-42; Mitsudomi, T. et al., Lancet Oncol. 11, 2010, pp. 121-8). However, the majority of patients will experience disease progression after successful treatment with EGFR TKIs. The most common mechanism of acquired resistance, detected in 60% of patients, is a secondary mutation at position T790 in EGFR (T790M) (Yu, HA et al., Clin. Cancer Res. 19, 2013, pp. 2240-7). This mutation leads to increased affinity of ATP, which makes it more difficult for the reversible EGFR TKIs gefitinib and erlotinib to bind to the EGFR TKI domain (Yun CH et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 105, 2008, pp. 2070-5).
[0005] Covalent EGFR inhibitors have become known to inhibit cancers containing EGFR T790M mutation. However, in lung cancer patients, only afatinib has been effective in EGFR TKI-naive EGFR-mutated cancers, with a RR of less than 10% in patients with NSCLC that has acquired resistance to gefitinib or erlotinib (Miller, VA et al., Lancet Oncol. 13, 2012, pp. 528-38). Afatinib is a potent inhibitor of both mutant and wild-type (WT) EGFR. Inhibition of WT EGFR leads to toxicities, including skin rash and diarrhea, limiting the ability to escalate afatinib doses in patients to those required to inhibit EGFR T790M mutation. Irreversible pyrimidine EGFR inhibitors, including the tool compound WZ4002 and the clinical compounds CO-1686 and AZD9291, overcome many of the limitations of afatinib (Zhou, W. et al., Nature 462, 2009, pp. 1070-1074; Walter, AO et al., Cancer Discov. 3, 2013, pp. 1404-1401; Cross, DAE et al., Cancer Discov. 4, 2014, pp. 1046-1046). Not only are they more potent against EGFR T790M, but they also inhibit the mutant more selectively than WT EGFR, leading to greater clinical efficacy and lower toxicity compared to afatinib (Zhou, W. et al.; Walter AO et al., Cross, DAE et al.).

[0007] However, all current EGFR TKIs target the ATP site, and while third-generation irreversible inhibitors can overcome the T790M mutation, they are all rendered ineffective by the C797S mutation, which already occurs in treated patients. Because kinase activation by mutation is effectively "downstream" of receptor dimerization, the anti-EGFR antibody cetuximab, which blocks receptor dimerization, is ineffective in EGFR-mutant NSCLC. Therefore, alternative strategies for inhibiting EGFR are needed. Currently, no suitable compounds with alternative mechanisms of action that target mutant EGFR are available. Therefore, potent small-molecule EGFR inhibitors with alternative mechanisms of action that target mutant EGFR are needed. [Means for solving the problem]

[0021] definition Listed below are definitions of various terms used to describe the compounds and compositions disclosed herein. These definitions apply to the terms as they are used throughout the specification and claims, either individually or as part of a larger group, unless otherwise limited in specific instances.
[0022] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein generally have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. Generally, the nomenclature used herein and the laboratory procedures in cell culture, molecular genetics, organic chemistry, and peptide chemistry are those known and commonly employed in the art.
[0023] As used herein, the articles "a" and "an" refer to one or to more than one (i.e., to at least one) of the grammatical object of the article. By way of example, "an element" means one element or more than one element. Furthermore, the use of the term "including" and other forms such as "include," "includes," and "included" is not limiting.
[0024] As used herein, the term "about" will be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art and will vary to some extent depending on the context in which it is used. When used herein when referring to a measurable value, such as an amount, a temporal duration, etc., the term "about" is meant to encompass a variation of ±20% or ±10%, including ±5%, ±1%, and ±0.1%, from the stated value, as long as such variations are appropriate to perform the disclosed method.
[0025] As used herein, "administration" and like terms refer to providing a therapeutic agent to a subject. Multiple techniques exist in the art for administering therapeutic agents, including, but not limited to, intravenous administration, oral administration, aerosol administration, parenteral administration, ophthalmic administration, pulmonary administration, and topical administration.
[0026] The terms "treat," "treated," "treating," or "treatment" include the diminishment or alleviation of at least one symptom associated with or caused by the condition, disorder, or disease being treated. In certain embodiments, treatment involves contacting wild-type or mutant EGFR with an effective amount of a compound disclosed herein in a subject suffering from a condition related to cancer.
[0027] As used herein, the term "prevent" or "prevention" means the absence of onset of a disorder or disease where none has occurred, or the absence of further onset of a disorder or disease where onset of a disorder or disease is already present. It may also be considered the ability to prevent some or all of the symptoms associated with a disorder or disease.
[0028] As used herein, the terms "patient," "individual," or "subject" refer to a human or non-human mammal. Non-human mammals include, for example, livestock and companion animals, such as ovine, bovine, porcine, canine, feline, and marine mammals. Preferably, the patient, subject, or individual is human.
[0029] As used herein, the terms "effective amount," "pharmaceutically effective amount," and "therapeutically effective amount" refer to a nontoxic but sufficient amount of an agent that produces a desired biological result. This result may be a reduction or alleviation of the signs, symptoms, or causes of a disease, or any other desired alteration of a biological system. An appropriate therapeutic amount in any individual case may be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art using routine experimentation.
[0030] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable" refers to a material, such as a carrier or diluent, that does not abrogate the biological activity or properties of a compound and is relatively non-toxic, i.e., that can be administered to an individual without causing undesired biological effects or interacting in a deleterious way with any ingredients in the composition in which it is contained.
[0031] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" refers to derivatives of the disclosed compounds, where the parent compound is modified by converting an existing acid or base moiety into its salt form. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, inorganic or organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines, alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids, etc. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the present disclosure include conventional non-toxic salts of the parent compound, e.g., salts formed from non-toxic inorganic or organic acids. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the present disclosure can be synthesized from the parent compound containing a basic or acid moiety by conventional chemical methods. Typically, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acid or free base form of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two (generally non-aqueous media such as ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile are preferred). The phrase "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" is not limited to mono- or 1:1 salts. For example, "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" also includes bis salts, such as bis hydrochlorides.

[0236] Administration / Dosage / Formulation Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs. In addition to the active compound, liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents, solubilizers and emulsifiers, such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, dimethylformamide, oils (e.g., cottonseed oil, peanut oil, corn oil, germ oil, olive oil, castor oil, and sesame oil), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, and mixtures thereof. In addition to inert diluents, oral compositions may also contain adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifiers and suspending agents, sweeteners, flavorings, and fragrances.
[0237] Injectable preparations (e.g., sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions) can be formulated according to known techniques using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. Sterile injectable preparations may also be sterile injectable solutions, suspensions, or emulsions in non-toxic parenterally acceptable diluents or solvents, such as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that can be employed are water, Ringer's solution, USP, and isotonic saline. Additionally, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as solvents or suspending media. For this purpose, any bland, fixed oil can be employed, including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. Additionally, fatty acids such as oleic acid are used in the preparation of injectables.
[0238] In order to prolong the effect of a drug, it is often desirable to slow the absorption of the drug from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This can be accomplished by using a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous material that is poorly soluble in water. In this case, the rate of absorption of the drug depends on its rate of dissolution, which may depend on the size and crystalline form of the crystals. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally administered drug form can be accomplished by dissolving or suspending the drug in an oil vehicle.
[0239] Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are preferably suppositories, which can be prepared by mixing a compound of the present disclosure with a suitable non-irritating excipient or carrier such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol or a suppository wax which is solid at room temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore will melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity to liberate the active compound.
[0240] Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like.
[0241] The active compound may also be in microencapsulated form with one or more of the above-mentioned excipients.Solid dosage forms such as tablets, sugar-coated tablets, capsules, pills, and granules can be prepared with coatings and shells, such as enteric coatings, release-controlling coatings, and other coatings known in the pharmaceutical formulation field.In such solid dosage forms, the active compound can be mixed with at least one inert diluent, such as sucrose, lactose, or starch.Such dosage forms can also contain, as is common practice, additional substances other than inert diluents, such as tableting lubricants and other tableting aids, such as magnesium stearate and microcrystalline cellulose.In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, dosage forms can also contain buffering agents.
[0242] Dosage forms for topical or transdermal administration of the compounds of the present disclosure include ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, powders, solutions, sprays, inhalants, or patches. The active ingredient is mixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and any needed preservatives or buffers, as required. Eye drops, ear drops, eye ointments, powders, and solutions are also contemplated as being within the scope of the present disclosure.
[0243] The ointments, pastes, creams and gels may contain, in addition to the active compounds of the present disclosure, excipients such as animal or vegetable fats, oils, waxes, paraffin, starch, tragacanth, cellulose derivatives, polyethylene glycols, silicones, bentonite, silicic acid, talc and zinc oxide, or mixtures thereof.
[0244] Powders and sprays can contain, in addition to the compounds of this disclosure, excipients such as lactose, talc, silicic acid, aluminum hydroxide, calcium silicates and polyamide powder, or mixtures of these substances. Sprays can also contain customary propellants such as chlorofluorohydrocarbons.
[0245] Transdermal patches have the added advantage of providing controlled delivery of a compound to the body. Such dosage forms can be made by dissolving or dispensing the compound in a suitable medium. Absorption enhancers can also be used to increase the flux of the compound across the skin. The rate can be controlled by either providing a rate-controlling membrane or dispersing the compound in a polymer matrix or gel.
[0246] According to the treatment methods of the present disclosure, disorders are treated or prevented in a subject, such as a human or other animal, by administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the present disclosure, in an amount and for a period of time necessary to achieve the desired result.

[0640] Example 25 HTRF-based EGFR biochemical assay Biochemical activity measurements of EGFR were performed using a homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) assay (Cisbio). First, inhibitors and DMSO standard solutions (DMSO normalization) were dispensed into an empty black low-volume 384-well plate (Corning) using a D300 digital liquid dispenser (HP). All reactions were performed at room temperature, and solutions were added to the plate using a Multidrop Combi reagent dispenser (ThermoFisher). The reaction mixture (final volume 10 μl) contained 1 μM of tyrosine kinase peptide-biotin substrate and mutant EGFR in reaction buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.0, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM MnCl2, 0.01% BSA, 2 mM TCEP, 0.1 mM NaVO4). The enzyme concentrations were adjusted to the different kinase activities (L858R 0.1 nM, L858R / T790M 0.02 nM). The enzyme reaction solution (2x concentration, 5 μL) was added to the 384-well plate containing the compounds and incubated for 30 minutes. The enzyme reaction was initiated by adding 5 μL of ATP to a final concentration of 100 μM and allowed to react for 20 minutes. The reaction was quenched by adding 10 μL of phosphotyrosine antibody-europium(III) cryptate (1:180 volume ratio) and streptavidin-XL665 (46.7 nM) in detection buffer containing EDTA, followed by incubation at room temperature for 1 hour and reading on a PHERAstar plate reader (excitation = 337 nm, emission = 620 nm and 665 nm).

[0645] Example 26 Ba / F3 cell proliferation model EGFR mutants L858R and L858R / T790M were expressed in Ba / F3 cells as previously described (Zhou, W. et al., Nature 462, 2009, pp. 1070-1074). All cell lines were maintained in RPMI 1640 medium (Cellgro; Mediatech, Herndon, CA) supplemented with 10% FBS, 100 units / mL penicillin, and 100 units / mL streptomycin. The EGFR I941R mutation was introduced by site-directed mutagenesis using the Quick Change Site-Directed Mutagenesis Kit (Stratagene; La Jolla, CA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. All constructs were verified by DNA sequencing. Constructs were shuttled into the retroviral vector JP1540 using the Cre recombination system (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA). Ba / F3 cells were then infected with the retrovirus according to standard protocols as previously described (Zhou et al., Nature 2009). Stable clones were obtained by selection in puromycin (2 μg / ml).
[0646] Proliferation and growth inhibition were assessed by the Cell Titer Glo assay (Promega, Madison, WI) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The Cell Titer Glo assay is a luminescence-based method used to determine viable cell number based on quantification of ATP present, which is directly proportional to the amount of metabolically active cells present. Ba / F3 cells of different EGFR genotypes were exposed to compounds as single agents or in combination with 1 μg / ml cetuximab for 72 hours. The number of cells used per experiment was determined empirically as previously established (Zhou et al., Nature 2009). All experimental points were arranged in triplicate in a 384-well plate, and all experiments were repeated at least three times. Luminescence signals were detected using a spectrometer, and data were displayed graphically using GraphPad Prism version 5.0 for Windows (GraphPad Software; www.graphpad.com). Curves were fitted using a nonlinear regression model with a sigmoidal dose-response relationship. The results of this assay for the compounds disclosed herein are shown in Table 8.
