Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a novel class of inhibitors of protein kinases that are useful in the treatment of proliferative cell diseases and conditions, including cancer.

[0002] Priority document This application claims priority from Australian Provisional Patent Application No. 2020902392, entitled "Protein kinase inhibitors for therapy," filed July 10, 2020, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. [Background technology]

[0003] There is an ongoing need to identify and develop new compounds for treating proliferative diseases and conditions, including cancer. Among the various "targets" for potential antiproliferative compounds, a group of enzymes known as receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are being explored. RTKs are cell surface proteins that transmit signals from the cell surface environment to the cytoplasm and nucleus, regulating cellular events such as survival, growth, proliferation, differentiation, adhesion, and migration. Genetic dysfunction due to mutation or deletion can lead to the aberrant expression of protein kinases, which is associated with tumorigenesis and progression.

[0004] The TAM subfamily consists of three RTKs: TYRO3, AXL, and MER (Graham et al., Nat Rev Cancer 14:769-785, 2014; Linger et al., Adv Cancer Res 100:35-83, 2008). TAM kinases are characterized by an extracellular ligand-binding domain consisting of two immunoglobulin-like domains and two fibronectin type III domains. Two ligands, growth arrest specific 6 (GAS6) and protein S (PROS1), have been identified for TAM kinases. GAS6 can bind to and activate all three TAM kinases, while PROS1 is a ligand for MER and TYRO3 (Graham et al., supra). Activation of the TAM receptor leads to signaling in several growth-promoting pathways, including the PI3K / AKT, MAPK, and PKC pathways. Furthermore, TAM receptors are essential regulators of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), which leads to resistance to therapy, metastasis, and immune cell suppression, suggesting an important role for TAMs in cancer biology and therapy.

[0005] AXL (also known as UFO, ARK, JTK11, and TYRO7) was originally identified as a transforming gene from DNA of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (O'Bryan et al., Mol Cell Biol 11:5016-5031, 1991; Graham et al., supra). GAS6 binds to AXL, subsequently autophosphorylating and activating the AXL kinase (Stitt TN et al., Cell 80(4):661-670, 1995; Li et al., Oncogene 1;28(39):3442-3455, 2009). AXL activates several downstream signaling pathways, including PI3K / AKT, Raf / MAPK, and PKC (Feneyrolles et al., Mol Cancer Ther 13:2141-2148, 2014). Overexpression of AXL has been shown to be a key risk factor for acute myeloid leukemia (Hong CC et al., Cancer Lett 268(2):314-324, 2008), breast cancer (Berclaz G et al., Ann Oncol 12(6):819-824, 2001; Zhang YX et al., Cancer Res 68(6):1905-1915, 2008; Gjerdrum C et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 107(3):1124-1129, 2010), gastric (Wu CW et al., Anticancer Res 22(2B):1071-1078, 2002), and lung cancer (Shieh YS et al., Neoplasia 7(12):1058-1064, 2005), melanoma (Quong RY et al., Melanoma Res 4(5):313-319, 1994), osteosarcoma (Han J et al., Biochem Biophys Res Commun 435(3):493-500, 2013), and renal cell carcinoma (Gustafsson A et al., Clin Cancer Res 15(14):4742-4749, 2009). More recently, the AXL receptor has been found to mediate resistance to several different cancer therapies, including chemotherapy, radiation, and inhibitors of EGFR and PI3K.Therefore, targeting AXL may be a promising strategy for the treatment of various malignancies.

[0006] MER kinase (also known as MERTK, EYK, RYK, RP38, NYK, and TYRO12) was originally identified as a phosphoprotein from a lymphoblastoid expression library (Graham et al., Oncogene 10:2349-2359, 1995). Both GAS6 and PROS1 can bind to MER and induce phosphorylation and activation of MER kinase. Similar to AXL, activation of MER also induces downstream signaling pathways, including PI3K / AKT and Raf / MAPK. Aberrant expression of MER in various malignant tumors, such as melanoma (Schlegel et al., J Clin Invest 123(5):2257-2267, 2013), gastric cancer (Yi et al., Oncotarget 8(57):96656-96667, 2017), leukemia (Linger et al., Blood 122(9):1599-1609, 2013; Lee-Sherick et al., Oncogene 32(46):5359-5368, 2013), and lung cancer (Xie et al., Oncotarget 6(11):9206-9219, 2015), plays a crucial role in the carcinogenesis process.

[0007] TYRO3 (also known as DTK, SKY, RSE, BRT, TIF, and ETK2) was originally identified through PCR-based cloning studies (Lai et al., Neuron 6:691-670, 1991). Both ligands, GAS6 and PROS1, can bind to and activate TYRO3. TYRO3 appears to play important roles in immunity, phagocytosis, hemostasis, and neurological diseases. Overexpression of TYRO3 and its ligands has been shown in a wide range of cancers and correlates with poor prognosis in various tumor types. Through AKT / NFκB signaling, TYRO3 exerts pro-survival effects and promotes cancer cell proliferation (Crosier et al., Leuk Lymphoma 18:443-449, 1995). TYRO3 and AXL protein levels are undetectable in normal thyroid cells but are significantly upregulated and activated in thyroid cancer cells (Avilla et al., Cancer Res 71:1792-1804, 2011). Activated TYRO3 promotes cancer cell survival, invasion, migration, proliferation, and transformation. TYRO3 has also been shown to promote chemoresistance in breast cancer (Ekyalongo et al., Anticancer Res 34:3337-3345, 2014) and ovarian cancer (Lee et al., Mol Med Rep 12:1485-1492, 2015). TYRO3 promotes phagocytosis and inhibits inflammation, enabling resistance to antitumor treatments for further cancer progression (Liu et al., J Immunother 35:299-308, 2012). Taken together, the studies suggest that inhibition of TYRO3 and its signaling pathways may have therapeutic effects in cancer treatment.

[0008] TAM inhibition not only has direct activity against neoplastic cells but also activates anti-cancer immune responses (Akalu YT et al. Immunol Rev 276(1):165-177, 2017). Therefore, TAM inhibitors represent an attractive approach for cancer treatment. Furthermore, TAM inhibitors can be combined with other targeted therapies, chemotherapy, radiation, or immunotherapy agents to achieve maximum efficacy in the clinic (Yokoyama et al., Cancer Res 79:1996-2008, 2019).

[0009] MET, also known as the N-methyl-N'-nitroso-guanidine human osteosarcoma transforming gene, is a proto-oncogene that encodes the receptor tyrosine kinase c-MET for hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) (Bladt et al., Nature 376:768-771, 1995; Sattler et al., Curr Oncol Rep 102-108, 2007). HGF binding leads to the dimerization and autophosphorylation of c-MET, which activates MAPK, PI3K, SRC, and STAT signaling pathways (Ma et al., Cancer Metastasis Rev 309-325, 2003). Ectopic MET expression is widely observed in various malignancies, particularly in non-small cell lung cancer, gastrointestinal cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma (Ichimura et al., Jpn J Cancer Res 87:1063-1069, 1996; Siegfried et al., Ann Thorac Surg 66:1915-1918, 1998; Goyal et al., Clin Cancer Res 19:2310-2318, 2013; Hack et al., Oncotarget 5:2866-2880, 2014). Therefore, MET has become an attractive target for cancer therapy and drug development.

[0010] The present application now identifies a novel class of compounds for use in the prevention and / or treatment of proliferative diseases and conditions, including cancer. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that these novel compounds can inhibit cell proliferation, therapeutic resistance, metastasis, and immune cell suppression by inhibiting the activity of one or more protein kinases, such as RTKs, and in particular one or more TAM and / or MET family protein kinases, and / or mutant forms thereof.

[0028] A number of terms are used herein that are well known to those of skill in the art. Nevertheless, for the sake of clarity, many of these terms are defined below.

[0029] As used herein, the term "treating" includes prevention as well as the alleviation of established symptoms of a condition. Thus, the act of "treating" a disease or condition therefore includes (1) preventing or delaying the appearance of clinical symptoms of the disease or condition in a subject afflicted with or susceptible to the disease or condition; (2) inhibiting the disease or condition (i.e., halting, reducing, or delaying the progression of the disease or condition, or (in the case of maintenance treatment) its recurrence, or at least one clinical or subclinical symptom thereof); and (3) alleviating or attenuating the disease or condition (i.e., causing regression of the disease or condition, or at least one clinical or subclinical symptom thereof).

[0030] As used herein, the term "alkyl" includes both straight-chain and branched alkyl groups having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms (e.g., methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, pentyl, hexyl, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, and the like).

[0031] As used herein, the term "aryl" refers to a substituted (mono- or poly) or unsubstituted monoaromatic or polyaromatic group, which may be fused or unfused. Thus, the term includes groups having 6 to 10 carbon atoms (e.g., phenyl, naphthyl, etc.). It should also be understood that the term "aryl" is synonymous with the term "aromatic."

[0032] As used herein, the term "aralkyl" is used to combine the terms alkyl and aryl described above.

[0033] The term "aliphatic" has its ordinary meaning in the art and includes non-aromatic groups such as alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes, and substituted derivatives thereof. This term includes groups having 1 to 8 carbon atoms.

[0034] As used herein, the term "alicyclic" means a cyclic aliphatic group.

[0035] The term "halogen" means fluoro, chloro, bromo, and iodo.

[0036] As used herein, the term "heterocyclic" refers to a saturated or unsaturated cyclic group containing one or more heteroatoms in the ring system (e.g., a system containing one or more rings (mono- or poly-)), and where more than one ring is present, the rings can be fused and / or unfused. Thus, the term covers saturated heterocyclic groups such as pyrrolidinyl, morpholinyl, aziridine, and piperazine, as well as heterocyclic groups (such as "heteroaryl" groups such as 2-pyridyl, 3-pyridyl, 4-pyridyl, 4-pyrimidyl, 5-indolyl, furan, thiophene, and thiazole), where at least one ring of the ring system contains, as ring members, 1 to 4 heteroatoms selected from N, O, and S (i.e., contains at least one heterocyclic ring), and the nitrogen and sulfur atoms can be oxidized and the nitrogen atom(s) can be quaternized. Heterocyclic groups can be attached to the remainder of the molecule through a ring carbon or ring heteroatom, or, if the ring system is polycyclic, e.g., bicyclic, tricyclic, or a fused ring system, through any ring of the ring system.

[0037] As used herein, the term "derivative" includes any chemical modification of an element. Examples of such chemical modifications are replacement of hydrogen with a halogen, alkyl, acyl, or amino group.

[0038] As used herein, the phrase "manufacturing a medicament" includes the direct use of one or more of the compounds of formula I as a medicament or at any stage in the manufacture of a medicament comprising one or more of the compounds of formula I.

[0039] Some compounds of Formula I can exist as single stereoisomers, racemates, and / or mixtures of enantiomers and / or diastereomers. All such single stereoisomers, racemates, and mixtures thereof are encompassed within the scope of the present disclosure. Such isomeric forms, such as diastereomers, enantiomers, and geometric isomers, can be separated by physical and / or chemical methods known to those skilled in the art.

[0040] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a salt that retains the desired biological activity of a compound of Formula I, including pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts and base addition salts. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of a compound of Formula I can be prepared from inorganic or organic acids. Examples of such inorganic acids are hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and phosphoric acid. Suitable organic acids can be selected from aliphatic, alicyclic, aromatic, heterocyclic, carboxylic, and sulfonic classes of organic acids, examples of which are formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, succinic acid, glycolic acid, gluconic acid, lactic acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, alkylsulfonic acid, and arylsulfonic acid. Further information on pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be found in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 19th Edition, Mack Publishing Co., Easton, PA 1995.

[0041] The term "solvate" means any form of a compound of formula I resulting from solvation with a suitable solvent. Such forms can be, for example, crystalline solvates or complexes that can form between a solvent and a dissolved compound.

[0042] The term "prodrug" refers to a compound that undergoes conversion to a compound of Formula I in a biological system, usually by metabolic means (e.g., by hydrolysis, reduction, or oxidation). For example, an ester prodrug of a compound of Formula I containing a hydroxyl group can be converted to a compound of Formula I in vivo by hydrolysis. Suitable esters of a compound of Formula I containing a hydroxyl group can be, for example, acetate, citrate, lactate, tartrate, malonate, oxalate, salicylate, propionate, succinate, fumarate, maleate, methylene-bis-p-hydroxynaphthonate, gentisate, isethionate, di-p-toluoyltartrate, methanesulfonate, ethanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, p-toluenesulfonate, cyclohexylsulfamate, and quinate. As another example, ester prodrugs of compounds of Formula I containing a carboxy group can be converted in vivo to compounds of Formula I by hydrolysis. Examples of ester prodrugs include those described by Leinweber FJ, Drug Metab Rev 18:379-439 (1987). Similarly, acyl prodrugs of compounds of Formula I containing an amino group can be converted in vivo to compounds of Formula I by hydrolysis. Examples of prodrugs for these and other functional groups, including isopropyl amines, are provided in Prodrugs: Challenges and Rewards, Valentino J Stella (ed.), Springer, 2007.

[0043] In the case of compounds of Formula I that are solid, it will be understood by those of skill in the art that the compound (or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate, or prodrug thereof) may exist in different crystalline or polymorphic forms, all of which are encompassed within the scope of this disclosure.

[0044] The term "therapeutically effective amount," or "effective amount," is an amount sufficient to produce a beneficial or desired clinical result. A therapeutically effective amount can be administered in one or more administrations. Typically, a therapeutically effective amount is sufficient to treat, or otherwise alleviate, ameliorate, stabilize, reverse, slow, or delay the progression of, a disease or condition, such as, for example, cancer or another proliferative cell disease or condition. By way of example only, a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate, or prodrug thereof, can comprise from about 0.1 to about 250 mg / kg body weight / day, more preferably from about 0.1 to about 100 mg / kg body weight / day, and still more preferably from about 0.1 to about 25 mg / kg body weight / day. Notwithstanding the above, however, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that a therapeutically effective amount may vary and may depend on a variety of factors, including the activity of the particular compound (or salt, solvate, or prodrug thereof), the metabolic stability and length of action of the particular compound (or salt, solvate, or prodrug thereof), age, weight, sex, health, route and time of administration, excretion rate of the particular compound (or salt, solvate, or prodrug thereof), and the severity of, for example, cancer or other proliferative cell disease or condition being treated.

[0045] The compounds of Formula I, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, and prodrugs thereof, are capable of inhibiting protein kinases, particularly RTKs, and can exhibit high selectivity for (i.e., inhibit) TYRO3, AXL, MER, and / or MET over other protein kinases. As such, the compounds of Formula I, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, and prodrugs thereof, which are believed to inhibit at least TYRO3, AXL, MER, and / or MET, find utility in both in vitro and in vivo applications (e.g., in vitro cell-based assays) and as the basis of therapeutic methods for treating cancer or another proliferative cell disease or condition in a subject.

[0069] The compounds of formula I can be formulated with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, diluents, and / or excipients to form pharmaceutical compositions. Examples of suitable carriers and diluents are well known to those skilled in the art and are described, for example, in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Co., Easton, PA 1995.

For other administration forms, pharmaceutical compositions can include solutions or emulsions that are injectable intravenously, intraarterially, intrathecally, subcutaneously, intradermally, intraperitoneally, or intramuscularly and are prepared from sterile or sterilizable solutions. Pharmaceutical compositions containing compounds of Formula I can also be in the form of suppositories, pessaries, suspensions, emulsions, lotions, ointments, creams, gels, sprays, solutions, or powders.

[0072] The compounds of formula I can be provided as pharmaceutically acceptable salts, including, for example, suitable acid addition or base salts thereof. A review of suitable pharmaceutical salts can be found in Berge et al., J Pharm Sci 66:1-19 (1977). For example, salts are formed with strong inorganic acids such as mineral acids (e.g., sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, or hydrohalic acid); with strong organic carboxylic acids such as unsubstituted or substituted (e.g., by halogen) alkanecarboxylic acids of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, such as acetic acid; with saturated or unsaturated dicarboxylic acids (e.g., oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, phthalic acid, or tetraphthalic acid); with hydroxycarboxylic acids (e.g., ascorbic acid, glycolic acid, lactic acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, or citric acid); with amino acids (e.g., aspartic acid or glutamic acid); with benzoic acid; or with organic sulfonic acids (e.g., unsubstituted or substituted (C1-C4)-alkyl or aryl sulfonic acids, such as methane or p-toluenesulfonic acid, e.g., by halogen).

[0073] The compound of formula I can be provided in its various crystalline forms, polymorphic forms, and hydrated (anhydrous) forms. In this regard, it is well known to those skilled in the art that the compound can be isolated in any of such forms by minor variations in purification and / or isolation techniques from solvents used in the synthetic preparation of such compound.

[0074] The present disclosure further provides methods for synthesizing compounds according to Formula I, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, or prodrugs thereof.

[0075] With respect to the description of the synthetic methods that follow, and in the referenced synthetic methods used to prepare starting materials, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that all proposed reaction conditions, including choice of solvent, reaction atmosphere, reaction temperature, duration of experiment, and work-up procedure, can be readily selected. Furthermore, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the functional groups present on various portions of the molecule must be compatible with the reagents and reaction conditions employed.

[0076] The necessary starting materials can be obtained by standard procedures of organic chemistry. The preparation of such starting materials is described in conjunction with variations of the following exemplary processes and in the following examples. Alternatively, the necessary starting materials are available by procedures similar to those described within the skill of the art. Furthermore, it will be understood that during the synthesis of compounds, within the processes described below, or during the synthesis of particular starting materials, it may be desirable to protect certain substituents to prevent their undesired reaction. Those skilled in the art will readily understand when such protection is necessary and how such protecting groups are installed and subsequently removed. Examples of protecting groups are described, for example, in *Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis* by Theodora Green (publisher: John Wiley & Sons). Protecting groups can be removed by any convenient method known to those skilled in the art as appropriate for removing the protecting group in question, and such methods will be selected to effect removal of the protecting group with minimal interference with groups elsewhere in the molecule. Thus, when reactants contain groups such as amino, carboxyl, or hydroxyl, it may be desirable to protect the group in some of the reactions mentioned herein.

[0077] Synthetic methods for preparing compounds of Formula I will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art.

[0078] However, in a further aspect of the disclosure, there is provided a method of synthesizing a compound of formula I (or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate, or prodrug thereof), said method comprising: a) a compound of formula A [ka] [In the formula, X is O or S; R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 and R7 is as defined above for formula I.] with a suitable 2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid derivative with which a compound of formula B is reacted; [ka] [In the formula, R 8 , R 9 , R 10 and R 11 is as defined above for Formula I.] and, if necessary, b) removing any protecting groups present and / or forming a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or prodrug thereof.

[0079] Still in a further aspect of the disclosure, there is provided a method of synthesizing a compound of formula I (or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate, or prodrug thereof), said method comprising: a) a compound of formula B [ka] [In the formula, R 8 , R 9 , R 10 and R 11 is as defined above for formula I.] is reacted with a compound having formula C: [ka] [In the formula, R 4 , R 5 , R 6 and R 7 is as defined above for formula I.] providing a compound of formula D; [ka] b) reacting a compound of formula D with a halogenated pyrimidine and, if necessary, c) removing any protecting groups present and / or forming a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or prodrug thereof.

[0080] The coupling reaction of the compounds of formula A and formula B can be carried out in the presence of a suitable solvent or solvent mixture. Those skilled in the art will be able to readily select a suitable solvent or solvent mixture for use in this reaction. Examples of suitable solvents include acetonitrile, halogenated solvents, etc.

[0081] Furthermore, one skilled in the art would be able to select appropriate reaction conditions for use in the coupling reaction of compounds of Formula A and Formula B. However, typically, the reaction will be carried out under anhydrous conditions and in the presence of an inert atmosphere, such as argon or nitrogen. The reaction can also be carried out at room temperature or at elevated temperatures for a suitable period of time, for example, from 30 minutes to 48 hours.

[0082] The resulting compounds can be isolated and purified using techniques well known to those skilled in the art.

[0083] An example of a particularly suitable method for synthesizing compounds of the present disclosure is shown in Scheme 1 below. Scheme 1 [ka] Here, typical reaction conditions are: (a) appropriate halogenated pyrimidine, K2CO3 or Cs2CO3, DMF, room temperature to 80°C, 12 to 24 hours; (b) appropriate boronic acid, Cu(CH3CO2)2, pyridine, room temperature; (c) LiOH, THF / MeOH / H2O (2:2:1), room temperature to 80°C, 12 to 24 hours; (d) NaClO2, NaH2PO4, 2-methyl-2-butene, THF / t-butanol / H2O (1:1:1), 0°C to room temperature, 0.5 to 2 hours; and (e) HATU, DIPEA, room temperature, 2 to 4 hours; or SOCl2, DIPEA, 0°C to room temperature, 0.5 to 2 hours.
