Description

[Background technology]

[0001] This application claims priority to International Patent Application No. PCT / CN2020 / 091436, filed May 20, 2020, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0002] <Introduction>

[0003] Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α)-induced NF-κB activation plays a central role in the immune system and inflammatory responses. Receptor-interacting protein 1 (RIP1) is a multifunctional signal transduction pathway involved in mediating nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) activation, apoptosis, and necroptosis. The kinase activity of RIP1 is critically involved in mediating necroptosis, a caspase-independent necrotic cell death pathway. Holler et al., Nat Immunol 2000;1:489-495; Degterev et al., Nat Chem Biol 2008;4:313-321.

[0004] Necroptosis plays a role in cell death in a variety of pathological conditions, including ischemic brain injury, neurodegenerative diseases, and viral infections. Dunai et al., Dec 2011, Pathol. Oncol. Res: POR 17 (4): 791-800. Necrostatin-1 (Nec-1), a small molecule inhibitor of RIP1 kinase activity, can block necroptosis. Degterev et al., Nat Chem Biol 2005; 1: 112-119.

[0005] RIP1 can contribute to D-1 immunotherapy resistance (e.g., Manguso et al., 2017 Nature 547, 413-418) and may act as a checkpoint kinase that governs tumor immunity (e.g., Wang et al., Cancer Cell 34, 757-774, Nov 12, 2018).

[0022] Description of Specific Embodiments of the Invention

[0023] It is understood that the examples and embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention, and that various variations or modifications will be suggested to those skilled in the art based on these examples and embodiments, and that such variations or modifications are intended to be included within the spirit and scope of this application and the scope of the appended claims. All publications, patents, and patent applications cited herein are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety for all purposes.

[0024] The term "alkyl" refers to a hydrocarbon group selected from straight-chain or branched-chain saturated hydrocarbon groups having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, 1 to 12 carbon atoms, 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or 1 to 3 carbon atoms. Examples of alkyl groups include methyl, ethyl, 1-propyl or n-propyl ("n-Pr"), 2-propyl or isopropyl ("i-Pr"), 1-butyl or n-butyl ("n-Bu"), 2-methyl-1-propyl or isobutyl ("i-Bu"), 1-methylpropyl or s-butyl ("s-Bu"), and 1,1-dimethylethyl or t-butyl ("t-Bu"). Other examples of alkyl groups include 1-pentyl, 2-pentyl, 3-pentyl, 2-methyl-2-butyl, 3-methyl-2-butyl, 3-methyl-1-butyl, 2-methyl-1-butyl, 1-hexyl, 2-hexyl, 3-hexyl, 2-methyl-2-pentyl, 3-methyl-2-pentyl, 4-methyl-2-pentyl, 3-methyl-3-pentyl, 2-methyl-3-pentyl, 2,3-dimethyl-2-butyl, and 3,3-dimethyl-2-butyl groups.

[0025] Lower alkyl means having 1 to 8, preferably 1 to 6, more preferably 1 to 4, for example 1 to 3 carbon atoms, and lower alkenyl or lower alkynyl means having 2 to 8, 2 to 6 or 2 to 4 carbon atoms.

[0026] The term "alkenyl" refers to a hydrocarbon group containing at least one C=C double bond and selected from straight or branched chain hydrocarbon groups having 2 to 18 carbon atoms, 2 to 12 carbon atoms, or 2 to 6 carbon atoms. Examples of alkenyl groups may be selected from ethenyl or vinyl groups, prop-1-enyl, prop-2-enyl, 2-methylprop-1-enyl, but-1-enyl, but-2-enyl, but-3-enyl, buta-1,3-dienyl, 2-methylbuta-1,3-diene, hex-1-enyl, hex-2-enyl, hex-3-enyl, hex-4-enyl, and hexa-1,3-dienyl groups.

[0027] The term "alkynyl" refers to a hydrocarbon group containing at least one C≡C triple bond and selected from straight or branched chain hydrocarbon groups having 2 to 18 carbon atoms, 2 to 12 carbon atoms, or 2 to 6 carbon atoms. Examples of alkynyl groups include ethynyl, 1-propynyl, 2-propynyl (propargyl), 1-butynyl, 2-butynyl, and 3-butynyl groups.

[0028] The term "cycloalkyl" refers to a hydrocarbon group selected from saturated cyclic hydrocarbon groups and partially unsaturated cyclic hydrocarbon groups, including monocyclic groups and polycyclic groups (e.g., bicyclic and tricyclic groups). For example, the cycloalkyl group may have 3 to 12, 3 to 8, 3 to 6, 3 to 4, or 5 to 6 carbon atoms. Also, for example, the cycloalkyl group may be a monocyclic group having 3 to 12, 3 to 8, or 3 to 6 carbon atoms. Examples of monocyclic cycloalkyl groups include cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, 1-cyclopent-1-enyl, 1-cyclopent-2-enyl, 1-cyclopent-3-enyl, cyclohexyl, 1-cyclohex-1-enyl, 1-cyclohex-2-enyl, 1-cyclohex-3-enyl, cyclohexadienyl, cycloheptyl, cyclooctyl, cyclononyl, cyclodecyl, cycloundecyl, and cyclododecyl groups. Examples of bicyclic cycloalkyl groups include groups having 7 to 12 ring atoms arranged as a bicyclic group selected from a [4,4], [4,5], [5,5], [5,6], and [6,6] ring system, or as a bridged bicyclic group selected from bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane, bicyclo[2.2.2]octane, and bicyclo[3.2.2]nonane. These rings may be saturated, may contain at least one double bond (i.e., may be partially unsaturated), but are not fully conjugated and are not aromatic as defined herein.

[0029] As used herein, the term "aryl" refers to groups selected from 5- and 6-membered carbocyclic aromatic rings (e.g., phenyl, etc.); bicyclic ring systems (e.g., 7- to 12-membered bicyclic ring systems) in which at least one ring is carbocyclic aromatic (e.g., bicyclic ring systems selected from naphthalene, indane, and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline); and tricyclic ring systems (e.g., 10- to 15-membered tricyclic ring systems) in which at least one ring is carbocyclic aromatic (e.g., fluorene, etc.).

[0030] For example, an aryl group may be selected from 5- and 6-membered carbocyclic aromatic rings fused to a 5- to 7-membered cycloalkyl ring or heterocycle, optionally containing at least one heteroatom selected from N, O, and S. When the carbocyclic aromatic ring is fused to a heterocycle, the point of attachment is on the carbocyclic aromatic ring; when the carbocyclic aromatic ring is fused to a cycloalkyl group, the point of attachment may be on either the carbocyclic aromatic ring or the cycloalkyl group. Divalent radicals formed from substituted benzene derivatives and having free valences on ring atoms are called substituted phenylene radicals. In monovalent polycyclic hydrocarbon radicals whose names end in "yl," divalent radicals derived by removing one hydrogen atom from the carbon atom having the free valence are named by adding "idene" to the name of the corresponding monovalent radical; for example, a naphthyl group having two points of attachment is called naphthylidene.

[0031] The term "halogen" or "halo" refers to F, Cl, Br, or I.

[0032] The term "heteroalkyl" refers to an alkyl that includes at least one heteroatom.

[0033] The term "heteroaryl" refers to a group selected from:

[0034] a 5- to 7-membered aromatic (e.g., 5- to 6-membered aromatic) monocyclic group containing 1, 2, 3, or 4 heteroatoms selected from N, O, and S, with the remaining ring atoms being carbon;

[0035] an 8- to 12-membered bicyclic group containing 1, 2, 3, or 4 heteroatoms selected from N, O, and S, with the remaining ring atoms being carbon, wherein at least one ring is aromatic and at least one heteroatom is present in the aromatic ring; and

[0036] An 11- to 14-membered tricyclic group containing 1, 2, 3, or 4 heteroatoms selected from N, O, and S, and the remaining ring atoms being carbon, in which at least one ring is aromatic and at least one heteroatom is present in the aromatic ring.

[0037] For example, heteroaryl groups include 5- to 7-membered heteroaromatic rings fused to 5- to 7-membered cycloalkyl rings. In such fused bicyclic heteroaryl ring systems, where only one ring contains at least one heteroatom, the point of attachment can be on either the heteroaromatic ring or the cycloalkyl ring.

[0038] When the total number of S and O atoms in a heteroaryl group exceeds 1, these heteroatoms are not adjacent to one another. In some embodiments, the total number of S and O atoms in the heteroaryl group is 2 or less. In some embodiments, the total number of S and O atoms in the aromatic heterocycle is 1 or less.

[0039] Examples of heteroaryl groups (numbered from the first attachment position) include pyridyl (e.g., 2-pyridyl, 3-pyridyl, or 4-pyridyl), cinnolinyl, pyrazinyl, 2,4-pyrimidinyl, 3,5-pyrimidinyl, 2,4-imidazolyl, imidazopyridinyl, isoxazolyl, oxazolyl, thiazolyl, isothiazolyl, thiadiazolyl, tetrazolyl, thienyl, triazinyl, benzothienyl, furyl, benzofuryl, benzimidazolyl, indolyl, isoindolyl, indolinyl, phthalazinyl, pyrazinyl, pyridazinyl, pyrrolyl, triazolyl, quinolinyl, isoquinolinyl, pyrazolyl, pyrrolopyridinyl (e.g., 1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-5-yl), pyrazolopyridinyl (e.g., 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-5-yl), and the like. benzo[d]thiazolyl (e.g., benzo[d]oxazol-6-yl), pteridinyl, purinyl, 1-oxa-2,3-diazolyl, 1-oxa-2,4-diazolyl, 1-oxa-2,5-diazolyl, 1-oxa-3,4-diazolyl, 1-thia-2,3-diazolyl, 1-thia-2,4-diazolyl, 1-thia-2,5-diazolyl, 1-thia-3,4-diazolyl, furazanyl, benzofurazanyl, benzothiophenyl, benzothiazolyl, benzoxazolyl, quinazolinyl, quinoxalinyl, naphthyridinyl, furopyridinyl, benzothiazolyl (e.g., benzo[d]thiazol-6-yl), indazolyl (e.g., 1H-indazol-5-yl), and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroisoquinoline.

[0040] The terms "heterocyclic," "heterocycle," or "heterocyclyl" refer to a 4-12-membered (e.g., 3-6, 3-5, 4-5, 5-6, or 4-6-membered), monocyclic, bicyclic, or tricyclic saturated or partially unsaturated ring containing at least one carbon atom in addition to 1, 2, 3, or 4 heteroatoms selected from oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen. "Heterocycle" also refers to a 5- to 7-membered heterocycle containing at least one heteroatom selected from N, O, and S fused to a 5-, 6-, and / or 7-membered cycloalkyl, carbocyclic, or heterocyclic aromatic ring; when the heterocycle is fused to a carbocyclic or heterocyclic aromatic ring, the point of attachment is on the heterocycle; when the heterocycle is fused to a cycloalkyl, the point of attachment can be on either the cycloalkyl or heterocycle.

[0041] Furthermore, "heterocycle" also refers to an aliphatic spirocycle containing at least one heteroatom selected from N, O, and S, where the point of attachment is at the heterocycle. These rings may be saturated or have at least one double bond (i.e., may be partially unsaturated). The heterocycle may be substituted with oxo. The point of attachment may be at a carbon or a heteroatom of the heterocycle. A heterocycle is not a heteroaryl as defined herein.

[0042] Examples of heterocyclic rings (numbered from the first bond position) include 1-pyrrolidinyl, 2-pyrrolidinyl, 2,4-imidazolidinyl, 2,3-pyrazolidinyl, 1-piperidinyl, 2-piperidinyl, 3-piperidinyl, 4-piperidinyl, 2,5-piperazinyl, pyranyl, 2-morpholinyl, 3-morpholinyl, oxiranyl, aziridinyl, thiiranyl, azetidinyl, oxetanyl, thietanyl, 1 ,2-dithietanyl, 1,3-dithietanyl, dihydropyridinyl, tetrahydropyridinyl, thiomorpholinyl, thioxanyl, piperazinyl, homopiperazinyl, homopiperidinyl, azepanyl, oxepanyl, thiepanyl, 1,4-oxathianyl, 1,4-dioxepanyl, 1,4-oxathiepanyl, 1,4-oxazepanyl, 1,4-dithiepanyl, 1,4-thiazepanyl, 1,4-diazepanyl Examples include, but are not limited to, 1,4-dithianyl, 1,4-azathiyl, oxazepinyl, diazepinyl, thiazepinyl, dihydrothienyl, dihydropyranyl, dihydrofuranyl, tetrahydrofuranyl, tetrahydrothienyl, tetrahydropyranyl, tetrahydrothiopyranyl, 1-pyrrolinyl, 2-pyrrolinyl, 3-pyrrolinyl, indolinyl, 2H-pyranyl, 4H-pyranyl, 1,4-dioxanyl, 1,3-dioxolanyl, pyrazolinyl, pyrazolidinyl, dithianyl, dithiolanyl, pyrazolidinylimidazolinyl, pyrimidinonyl, 1,1-dioxo-thiomorpholinyl, 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanyl, 3-azabicyclo[4.1.0]heptanyl, and azabicyclo[2.2.2]hexanyl.

[0043] As used herein, the term "fused ring" refers to a polycyclic ring system (e.g., a bicyclic or tricyclic ring system) in which two rings share only two ring atoms and one bond. Examples of fused rings include fused bicyclic cycloalkyl rings, such as those having 7 to 12 ring atoms arranged as a bicyclic group selected from the aforementioned [4,4] ring system, [4,5] ring system, [5,5] ring system, [5,6] ring system, and [6,6] ring system; fused bicyclic aryl rings, such as the aforementioned 7- to 12-membered bicyclic aryl ring system; fused tricyclic aryl rings, such as the aforementioned 10- to 15-membered tricyclic aryl ring system; fused bicyclic heteroaryl rings, such as the aforementioned 8- to 12-membered bicyclic heteroaryl ring; fused tricyclic heteroaryl rings, such as the aforementioned 11- to 14-membered tricyclic heteroaryl ring; and fused bicyclic or tricyclic heterocyclyl rings.

[0050] Combinations of substituents disclosed herein are those that result in the formation of stable or chemically feasible compounds. For purposes of shorthand or convention, a hydrogen atom bonded to an atom (e.g., a carbon atom C or a nitrogen atom N) is not specifically designated in a chemical structure, formula, or representation; the hydrogen atom is considered to be present to the extent that the valence of the atom (e.g., C or N) is satisfied.

[0051] The compounds of the present invention may have asymmetric centers and therefore may exist as enantiomers. When the compounds of the present invention have two or more asymmetric centers, they may further exist as diastereomers. Enantiomers and diastereomers are included in the broader definition of stereoisomers. All possible stereoisomers, including substantially pure resolved enantiomers, racemic mixtures thereof, and mixtures of diastereomers, are intended to be included in the present invention. Also, all possible stereoisomers of the compounds of the present invention and / or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are intended to be included in the present invention. Unless otherwise specified herein, a reference to one isomer applies to all possible isomers. If the isomeric composition is not specified, all possible isomers are included.

[0052] The term "substantially pure" means that the stereoisomer of interest contains no more than 35% by weight of other stereoisomers, such as no more than 30% by weight, further such as no more than 25% by weight, further such as no more than 20% by weight. In some embodiments, the term "substantially pure" means that the stereoisomer of interest contains no more than 10% by weight of other stereoisomers, such as no more than 5% by weight, for example no more than 1% by weight.

[0053] Unless otherwise specified specifically herein, when compounds of the invention contain olefinic double bonds, such double bonds are meant to include both E and Z geometric isomers.

[0054] Some compounds of the present invention may have different points of attachment of hydrogen, and such compounds are called tautomers. For example, a compound having a carbonyl -CHC(O)- group (keto form) may form a hydroxyl -CH=C(OH)- group (enol form) through tautomerism. Where applicable, both the keto and enol forms are intended to be included, either individually, and mixtures of the keto and enol forms.

[0055] It may be advantageous to separate reaction products from one another and / or from starting materials. The desired products from each step or series of steps are separated and / or purified (hereinafter "separated") to the desired degree of homogeneity by techniques common in the art. Typically, such separations include multiphase extraction, crystallization from a single solvent or a mixture of solvents, distillation, sublimation, or chromatography. Chromatography can include any number of methods, including, for example, reverse-phase and normal-phase chromatography; size-exclusion chromatography; ion-exchange chromatography; high-, medium-, and low-pressure liquid chromatography methods and devices; small-volume analytical chromatography; simulated moving bed ("SMB") chromatography, preparative thin-layer or thick-layer chromatography; and small-volume thin-layer and flash chromatography techniques. One skilled in the art will be able to apply the technique most likely to achieve the desired separation.

[0056] Diastereomeric mixtures can be separated into their individual diastereomers based on their physical chemical differences by methods known to those skilled in the art, such as chromatography and / or fractional crystallization. Enantiomers can be separated by converting the enantiomeric mixture into a diastereomeric mixture by reaction with a suitable optically active compound (e.g., a chiral auxiliary such as a chiral alcohol or Mosher's acid chloride), separating the diastereomers, and converting each diastereomer into its corresponding pure enantiomer (e.g., by hydrolysis). Enantiomers can also be separated using a chiral HPLC column.

[0057] Single stereoisomers (e.g., substantially pure enantiomers) may be obtained by resolving a racemic mixture using methods such as the formation of diastereomers with an optically active resolving agent. Racemic mixtures of chiral compounds of the present invention can be separated and isolated by suitable methods, including, for example, (1) forming ionic diastereomeric salts with chiral compounds and separating them by fractional crystallization or other methods, (2) forming diastereomeric compounds with chiral derivatizing reagents, separating the diastereomers, and converting them to pure stereoisomers, and (3) directly isolating substantially pure or enriched stereoisomers under chiral conditions.

[0058] Examples of "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" include inorganic acid salts selected from hydrochlorides, phosphates, diphosphates, hydrobromides, sulfates, sulfinates, and nitrates, as well as salts such as malates, maleates, fumarates, tartrates, succinates, citrates, lactates, methanesulfonates, p-toluenesulfonates, 2-hydroxyethylsulfonates, benzoates, salicylates, stearates, alkanoates (such as acetates), and HOOC-(CH2) n -COOH (n is selected from 0 to 4), and the like. Similarly, examples of pharmaceutically acceptable cations include, but are not limited to, sodium, potassium, calcium, aluminum, lithium, and ammonium.

[0059] Furthermore, if a compound is obtained as an acid addition salt, the free base can be obtained by basifying a solution of the acid salt. Conversely, if the product is a free base, an addition salt (such as a pharmaceutically acceptable addition salt) may be prepared by dissolving the free base in a suitable organic solvent and treating the resulting solution with an acid, following conventional procedures for preparing acid addition salts from basic compounds. Those skilled in the art will recognize, without undue experimentation, a variety of synthetic methods available for preparing pharmaceutically acceptable, non-toxic addition salts.

[0072] For ocular administration, the ophthalmic formulation may be formulated as a solution or suspension containing the compound of interest, its stereoisomer, its hydrate, and / or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in an appropriate weight percentage in a suitable ophthalmic solvent, thereby maintaining contact of the compound of interest, its stereoisomer, its hydrate, and / or at least one pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof with the surface of the eye for a sufficient period of time to allow the compound to penetrate the cornea and the interior of the eye.

[0073] Pharmaceutical dosage forms useful for administering the subject compounds disclosed herein, their stereoisomers, hydrates thereof, and / or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof include, but are not limited to, hard gelatin capsules, soft gelatin capsules, tablets, parenteral injections, and oral suspensions.

[0074] The dosage will depend on factors such as the recipient's age, health, and weight, the extent of the disease, the type of treatment, if any, the frequency of treatment, and the characteristics of the desired effect. Generally, the daily dosage of the active ingredient may vary but may be, for example, 0.1 to 2000 mg per day. For example, 10 to 500 mg administered once or multiple times daily may be effective to achieve the desired results.

[0075] In some embodiments, for example, a number of unit capsules can be prepared by filling each standard two-piece hard gelatin capsule with 100 mg of a powdered subject compound disclosed herein, its stereoisomer, its hydrate, and / or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, 150 mg lactose, 50 mg cellulose, and 6 mg magnesium stearate.

[0076] In some embodiments, a soft gelatin capsule containing 100 mg of the active ingredient can be prepared by preparing a mixture of the compound of the present invention, its stereoisomer, its hydrate, and / or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof with a digestible oil such as soybean oil, cottonseed oil, or olive oil, and injecting the mixture into gelatin using a positive displacement pump.The capsules are then washed and dried.

[0078] In some embodiments, a parenteral composition suitable for administration by injection can be prepared by stirring 1.5% by weight of a compound disclosed herein and / or at least one enantiomer, diastereomer, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in 10% by volume propylene glycol. The solution is made up to volume with water for injection and sterilized.

[0079] In some embodiments, an aqueous suspension for oral administration can be prepared, for example, 5 mL of an aqueous suspension containing 100 mg of micronized compound, its stereoisomer, its hydrate, and / or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, 100 mg of sodium carboxymethylcellulose, 5 mg of sodium benzoate, 1.0 g of sorbitol solution (USP), and 0.025 mL of vanillin.

[0080] When the compound of the present invention, its stereoisomer, its hydrate, and / or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are administered stepwise or together with at least one other therapeutic agent, the same dosage form can usually be used. When the drugs are administered in physical combination, the dosage form and administration route should be selected according to the compatibility of the combined drugs. Therefore, the term "co-administration" is understood to include simultaneous or sequential administration of at least two drugs, or administration of at least two active ingredients as a fixed-dose combination.

[0081] The compounds disclosed herein, their stereoisomers, hydrates, and / or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof can be administered as the sole active ingredient or can be administered in combination with at least one second active ingredient.

[0082] The subject compounds, their stereoisomers, hydrates, and / or pharmaceutically acceptable salts are incorporated into pharmaceutical compositions or formulations. These compositions include a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent and / or carrier, i.e., a diluent or carrier that is physiologically compatible and substantially free of pathogenic impurities. Suitable excipients or carriers and methods for preparing administrable compositions are known or apparent to those skilled in the art and are described in further detail in publications such as Remington's Pharmaceutical Science, Mack Publishing Co., NJ (1991). These compositions may also be in the form of controlled-release or sustained-release compositions known in the art. In many applications, the subject compounds, their stereoisomers, hydrates, and / or pharmaceutically acceptable salts are administered in the morning / midday with a nighttime off-peak period.

[0083] The subject compounds, their stereoisomers, their hydrates, and / or pharmaceutically acceptable salts may be used as they are or in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt such as hydrochloride, hydrobromide, acetate, sulfate, citrate, carbonate, trifluoroacetate, etc. When a compound has a relatively acidic functionality, a salt can be obtained by adding a desired base in a suitable inert solvent or without a solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts include sodium salt, potassium salt, calcium salt, ammonium salt, organic amino salt, magnesium salt, etc. When a compound has a relatively basic functionality, a salt can be obtained by adding a desired acid in a suitable inert solvent or without a solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include salts derived from inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, nitric acid, carbonic acid, bicarbonate, phosphoric acid, monohydrogen phosphate, dihydrogen phosphate, sulfuric acid, hydrogen sulfate, hydroiodic acid, and phosphorous acid, as well as salts derived from relatively non-toxic organic acids such as acetic acid, propionic acid, isobutyric acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, benzoic acid, succinic acid, suberic acid, fumaric acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, phthalic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-tolylsulfonic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, and methanesulfonic acid. Also included are salts of amino acids such as arginate and salts of organic acids such as glucuronic acid or galacturonic acid (see, e.g., Berge et al., "Pharmaceutical Salts," Journal of Pharmaceutical Science, 1977, 66, 1-19).

[0084] The neutral forms of the compounds may 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 for purposes of the present invention, the salts are otherwise equivalent to the parent forms of the compounds.

[0085] In addition to salt forms, the present invention provides compounds in prodrug forms. Prodrugs of the compounds described herein are compounds that are readily chemically altered under physiological conditions to provide the compounds of the present invention. Furthermore, prodrugs can be converted to the compounds of the present invention by chemical or biochemical methods in an ex vivo environment. For example, prodrugs can be slowly converted to the compounds of the present invention when placed in a transdermal patch reservoir with a suitable enzyme or chemical reagent. In some situations, prodrugs are often useful because they are easier to administer than the parent drug. For example, prodrugs may have better oral bioavailability than the parent drug. Prodrugs may also have improved solubility in pharmacological compositions compared to the parent drug. Various prodrug derivatives are known in the art, for example, by hydrolysis or oxidative activation of the prodrug. Examples of prodrugs include, but are not limited to, compounds of the present invention that are administered as an ester (the "prodrug") and then metabolically hydrolyzed to the active carboxylic acid.

[0086] Certain compounds of the present invention may exist in unsolvated form or in solvated form, including hydrated form.In general, solvated form is equivalent to unsolvated form and is intended to be included within the scope of the present invention.Certain compounds of the present invention may exist in various crystalline forms or amorphous forms.In general, all physical forms are equivalent for the use envisioned by the present invention, and all are intended to be included within the scope of the present invention.

[0087] Some of the subject compounds, their stereoisomers, their hydrates, and / or pharmaceutically acceptable salts possess asymmetric carbon atoms (optical centers) or double bonds; all of their racemates, diastereomers, geometric isomers and individual isomers are intended to be encompassed within the scope of the present invention.

[0088] The compounds of the present invention may contain isotopes of atoms, such as deuterium (e.g., —CD3, CD2H, or CDH2 instead of methyl), at one or more of the constituent atoms of the compound in proportions not found in nature. For example, the compounds of the present invention may contain isotopes of atoms, such as tritium ( 3 H), iodine-125( 125 I), carbon-14 ( 14 C). All isotopically variants of the compounds of the present invention, whether radioactive or non-radioactive, are intended to be encompassed within the scope of the present invention.

[0089] The compounds of the invention are typically administered in a "therapeutically effective amount," i.e., an amount of the compound of interest that will induce the biological or medical response of a tissue, system, animal, or human that is desired by a researcher, veterinarian, physician, or other clinician. The term "therapeutically effective amount" encompasses that amount of compound that, when administered, is sufficient to prevent the development of, or alleviate to some extent, one or more symptoms of, the condition or disorder being treated. The therapeutically effective amount will vary depending on the compound, the disease and its severity, and the age, weight, etc., of the mammal being treated.

[0090] Such contacting is typically achieved by administering to the subject an effective amount of one or more compounds having the general formula I (see above), including the various embodiments described above. Generally, administration is adjusted to provide a therapeutic dose of about 0.1-50 mg / kg, preferably 0.5-10 mg / kg, and more preferably 1-10 mg / kg, although optimal dosages are compound-specific and generally determined empirically for each compound.

[0091] The term "unit dosage form" refers to a physically discrete unit suitable as a unitary dosage for human subjects and other mammals, each unit containing a predetermined amount of active agent calculated to produce a desired therapeutic effect, together with suitable pharmaceutical excipients. Typical unit dosage forms include ampoules or syringes filled with premeasured amounts of liquid compositions, or pills, tablets, capsules, lozenges, and the like for solid compositions. In such compositions, the mimetic is typically present as a minor component (about 0.1 to about 50% by weight, or preferably about 1 to about 40% by weight), with the remainder being processing aids and various vehicles or carriers to facilitate the formation of the desired dosage form. Unit dosage formulations are preferably about 5 mg, about 10 mg, about 25 mg, about 50 mg, about 100 mg, about 250 mg, about 500 mg, or about 1,000 mg per unit. In one particular embodiment, the unit dosage forms are packaged in a multi-pack package suitable for successive use, for example a blister pack containing sheets containing at least 6, 9 or 12 unit dosage forms.

[0092] The subject compositions may also be co-formulated and / or co-administered with different compounds to treat applicable indications or to treat programmed cell death, which in embodiments include brain injury, neurodegenerative diseases, viral infections, immune tolerance, and promoting tumor immunity in cancer, e.g., pancreatic cancer and melanoma.
