[0001] Related Applications This application claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Patent Application No. 63 / 052,085, filed July 15, 2020, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
[0002] Technical Field The present invention relates to compounds, compositions and methods for treating neurological and psychiatric disorders associated with muscarinic acetylcholine receptor dysfunction. [Background technology]
[0003] Cholinergic neurotransmission involves the activation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) or muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) through the binding of the endogenous orthosteric agonist acetylcholine (ACh). Conditions associated with cognitive impairment, such as Alzheimer's disease, are accompanied by a decrease in acetylcholine content in the brain. This is thought to be the result of degeneration of cholinergic neurons in the basal forebrain, which innervate multiple brain regions, including the association cortex and hippocampus, which are critically involved in higher-order processes. Clinical data support the idea that cholinergic hypofunction contributes to cognitive impairment in patients with schizophrenia. Efforts to increase acetylcholine levels have focused on increasing levels of choline, the precursor for acetylcholine synthesis, and blocking acetylcholinesterase (AChE), the enzyme that metabolizes acetylcholine. Consequently, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors, which inhibit the hydrolysis of ACh, have been approved in the United States for the palliative, but not disease-modifying, treatment of cognitive impairment in patients with AD.
[0004] Attempts to enhance central cholinergic function by administering choline or phosphatidylcholine have been unsuccessful. Although AChE inhibitors have demonstrated therapeutic efficacy, they have been found to have frequent cholinergic side effects due to peripheral acetylcholine stimulation, including abdominal cramps, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. These gastrointestinal side effects are observed in approximately one-third of treated patients. In addition, some AChE inhibitors, such as tacrine, have been shown to cause significant hepatotoxicity due to elevated hepatic transaminases observed in approximately 30% of patients. The side effects of AChE inhibitors significantly limit their clinical usefulness. An alternative approach to pharmacologically targeting cholinergic hypofunction is activation of mAChRs, which are widely expressed throughout the body.
[0005] mAChRs are members of the GPCR family and include five subtypes, designated M1 to M5. The M1, M3, and M5 subtypes are primarily G q M2 and M4 subtypes bind to and activate phospholipase C, whereas M2 and M4 subtypes primarily bind to G i / o and associated effector systems. These five distinct mAChR subtypes have been identified in the mammalian central nervous system, where they are differentially expressed and prevalent. M1-M5 play diverse roles in cognitive, sensory, motor, and autonomic functions. Therefore, without wishing to be bound by any particular theory, it is believed that selective mAChR subtype agonists that modulate processes involved in cognitive function may prove to be excellent therapeutic agents for the treatment of psychosis, schizophrenia, and related disorders. The muscarinic M4 receptor has been shown to play a key role in cognitive processing and is believed to play a key role in the pathophysiology of psychotic disorders, including schizophrenia.
[0006] Evidence suggests that the most prominent side effects of AChE inhibitors and other cholinergic agonists are mediated by activation of peripheral M2 and M3 mAChRs and include bradycardia, gastrointestinal distress, excessive salivation, and sweating. In contrast, M4 has been identified as the subtype most likely to mediate the effects of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor dysfunction in psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia, cognitive impairment, and neuropathic pain. For this reason, considerable efforts have been devoted to developing selective M4 agonists for the treatment of these disorders. Unfortunately, these efforts have been largely unsuccessful due to the inability to develop compounds highly selective for the M4 mAChR. Therefore, mAChR agonists tested in clinical trials induce various side effects through activation of peripheral mAChRs. To fully understand the physiological roles of individual mAChR subtypes and to further explore the therapeutic utility of mAChR ligands in psychiatric diseases, including schizophrenia, cognitive impairment, and other disorders, it may be important to develop compounds that are highly selective activators of mAChR M4 and other individual mAChR subtypes.
[0007] Previous attempts to develop highly selective agonists for individual mAChR subtypes have failed due to the high conservation of the orthosteric ACh binding site. To circumvent the problems associated with targeting the highly conserved orthosteric ACh binding site, researchers have attempted to develop compounds that act at less highly conserved allosteric sites on mAChRs. This approach has improved the development of selective ligands for multiple GPCR subtypes. In the case of mAChRs, the primary goal has been to develop allosteric ligands that selectively increase the activity of mAChR M4 or other mAChR subtypes. Allosteric activators include allosteric agonists, which act at sites distinct from the orthosteric site and directly activate the receptor in the absence of ACh, as well as positive allosteric modulators (PAMs), which do not directly activate the receptor but potentiate its activation by the endogenous orthosteric agonist ACh. It is also possible for a single molecule to have both allosteric potentiator and allosteric agonist activity.
[0008] Recently, muscarinic agonists, including xanomeline, have been shown to have a profile similar to that of known antipsychotic drugs but without causing catalepsy and are active in animal models (Bymaster et al., Eur. J. Pharmacol. 1998, 356, 109; Bymaster et al., Life Sci. 1999, 64, 527; Shannon et al., J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 1999, 290, 901; Shannon et al., Schizophrenia Res. 2000, 42, 249). Furthermore, xanomeline has also been shown to reduce psychotic behavioral symptoms, such as delusions, distrust, sudden screaming, and hallucinations, in patients with Alzheimer's disease (Bodick et al., Arch. Neurol. 1997, 54, 465). However, treatment-induced side effects, such as gastrointestinal effects, significantly limit the clinical usefulness of this compound.
[0009] WO 2018 / 118736 discloses 6,5-fused heteroarylpiperidine ethers that are allosteric modulators of the M4 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor.
[0010] Despite advances in muscarinic acetylcholine receptor research, compounds that are potent, effective, and selective activators of M4 mAChRs and that are also effective in treating neurological and psychiatric disorders associated with cholinergic activity, as well as diseases involving the muscarinic M4 receptor, remain scarce.

[Brief explanation of the drawings]
[0015] [Figure 1] FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of the ligand binding site, including the orthosteric and allosteric sites, in the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0016] Detailed Description Disclosed herein are positive allosteric modulators (i.e., potentiators) of the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M4 (mAChR M4), methods for making them, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, and methods for using them to treat neurological and psychiatric disorders associated with muscarinic acetylcholine receptor dysfunction. The compounds include analogs of 6-(4-((2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)oxy)piperidin-1-yl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine.
[0017] The human muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M4 (mAChR M4) is a 479-amino acid protein encoded by the CHRM4 gene. The molecular weight of the non-glycosylated protein is approximately 54 kDa, and it is a transmembrane GPCR. As previously mentioned, mAChR M4 is a member of the GPCR class A family, or rhodopsin-like GPCR, and is characterized by structural features similar to those of rhodopsin, such as seven transmembrane segments. Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors have an N-terminus facing the extracellular surface of the membrane and a C-terminus located on the cytoplasmic surface. A schematic diagram of the mAChR M4 structure is shown in Figure 1, where the transmembrane segment is shown as a cylinder (spanning the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane). Orthosteric binding of the natural ligand for mAChR, i.e., acetylcholine, occurs within a pocket located within the transmembrane segment, as shown in Figure 1.
[0018] Previous attempts to develop highly selective agonists for individual mAChR subtypes have failed due to the high degree of conservation of the orthosteric ACh binding site. To circumvent the problems associated with targeting the highly conserved orthosteric ACh binding site, it has been proposed to develop compounds that act on less highly conserved allosteric sites on mAChRs that are removed from the orthosteric site. While not wishing to be bound by any particular theory, it is believed that the compounds of the present invention and the products of the disclosed methods bind to an allosteric site that is different from the orthosteric binding site. For example, the disclosed compounds can bind at a binding site as illustrated in FIG. 1.

[0048] In some cases, the number of carbon atoms in a hydrocarbyl substituent (e.g., alkyl or cycloalkyl) is indicated by the prefix "C x ~C y -" where x is the minimum number of carbon atoms in the substituent and y is the maximum number. Thus, for example, "C1-C3-alkyl" refers to an alkyl substituent containing from 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
[0049] The term "substituent" refers to a group (non-hydrogen) "substituted" for a group such as an alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, heteroaryl, cycloalkyl, heteroalkyl, or heterocyclic group at any atom of that group. Any atom can be substituted.
[0050] The term "substituted" refers to a group that may be further substituted with one or more non-hydrogen substituents. Substituents include, but are not limited to, halogen, ═O (oxo), ═S (thioxo), cyano, nitro, fluoroalkyl, alkoxyfluoroalkyl, fluoroalkoxy, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, heteroalkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, aryl, heteroaryl, heterocycle, cycloalkylalkyl, heteroarylalkyl, arylalkyl, hydroxy, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxy, alkoxyalkyl, alkylene, aryloxy, phenoxy, benzyloxy, amino, alkylamino, acylamino, aminoalkyl, arylamino, sulfonylamino, sulfinylamino, sulfonyl, alkylsulfonyl, arylsulfonyl, aminosulfonyl, sulfinyl, -COOH, ketone, amide, carbamate, and acyl. In some embodiments, a group may be substituted. In some embodiments, a group may be substituted with 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 substituents. In some embodiments, an aryl, heteroaryl, cycloalkyl, or heterocycle can be substituted with 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 substituents. In some embodiments, an aryl, heteroaryl, cycloalkyl, or heterocycle can be independently unsubstituted or substituted with 1, 2, or 3 substituents.
[0051] For the compounds described herein, and in accordance with the permitted valences of atoms and substituents, groups and substituents can be selected such that selection and substitution results in stable compounds (e.g., which do not spontaneously undergo transformations such as by rearrangement, cyclization, elimination, etc.).
[0052] As used herein, the term "allosteric site" refers to a ligand binding site that is topographically distinct from the orthosteric binding site.
[0053] As used herein, the term "modulator" refers to a molecular entity (for example, but not limited to, ligands and disclosed compounds) that modulates the activity of a target receptor protein.
[0054] The term "ligand," as used herein, refers to a natural or synthetic molecular entity that can associate with or bind to a receptor to form a complex and mediate, prevent, or modify a biological effect. Thus, the term "ligand" encompasses allosteric modulators, inhibitors, activators, agonists, antagonists, natural substrates, and analogs of natural substrates.
[0055] As used herein, the terms "natural ligand" and "endogenous ligand" are used interchangeably and refer to a natural ligand found in nature that binds to a receptor.
[0056] As used herein, the term "orthosteric site" refers to the primary binding site on a receptor that is recognized by the endogenous ligand or agonist for that receptor. For example, the orthosteric site on the mAChR M4 receptor is the site to which acetylcholine binds.
[0057] As used herein, the term "mAChR M4 receptor-positive allosteric modulator" refers to any exogenously administered compound or agent that directly or indirectly enhances the activity of the mAChR M4 receptor in animals, particularly mammals, e.g., humans, in the presence or absence of acetylcholine or another agonist. For example, an mAChR M4 receptor-positive allosteric modulator can increase the activity of the intracellular mAChR M4 receptor in the presence of extracellular acetylcholine. The cell can be a Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K1) cell transfected with human mAChR M4. The cell can be a Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K1) cell transfected with rat mAChR M4 receptor. The cell can be a Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K1) cell transfected with mammalian mAChR M4. The term "mAChR M4 receptor positive allosteric modulator" encompasses compounds that are "mAChR M4 receptor allosteric potentiators" or "mAChR M4 receptor allosteric agonists," as well as compounds that have mixed activity, including the pharmacology of both "mAChR M4 receptor allosteric potentiators" and "mAChR M4 receptor allosteric agonists." The term "mAChR M4 receptor positive allosteric modulator" also includes compounds that are "mAChR M4 receptor allosteric enhancers."
[0058] As used herein, the term "mAChR M4 receptor allosteric potentiator" refers to any exogenously administered compound or agent that directly or indirectly enhances the response produced by an endogenous ligand (such as acetylcholine) when the endogenous ligand binds to the orthosteric site of the mAChR M4 receptor in an animal, particularly a mammal, e.g., a human. The mAChR M4 receptor allosteric potentiator binds to a site other than the orthosteric site, i.e., an allosteric site, thereby enhancing the receptor's response to an agonist or endogenous ligand. In some embodiments, the allosteric potentiator does not induce receptor desensitization, and the activity of the compound as an mAChR M4 receptor allosteric potentiator may provide advantages over the use of pure mAChR M4 receptor orthosteric agonists. Such advantages may include, for example, an increased safety margin, better tolerability, reduced abuse potential, and reduced toxicity.
[0059] As used herein, the term "mAChR M4 receptor allosteric enhancer" refers to any exogenously administered compound or agent that directly or indirectly enhances the response produced by an endogenous ligand (such as acetylcholine) in an animal, particularly a mammal, e.g., a human. In some embodiments, the allosteric enhancer increases the affinity of a natural ligand or agonist for the orthosteric site. In some embodiments, the allosteric enhancer increases agonist potency. The mAChR M4 receptor allosteric enhancer binds to a site other than the orthosteric site, i.e., an allosteric site, thereby enhancing the receptor's response to an agonist or endogenous ligand. The allosteric enhancer does not affect the receptor by itself and requires the presence of an agonist or natural ligand to achieve its receptor effect.
[0060] As used herein, the term "mAChR M4 receptor allosteric agonist" refers to any exogenously administered compound or agent that directly activates the mAChR M4 receptor in animals, particularly mammals, e.g., humans, in the absence of endogenous ligands (such as acetylcholine). mAChR M4 receptor allosteric agonists bind to a site on the mAChR M4 receptor that is distinct from the orthosteric acetylcholine site. Because the presence of an endogenous ligand is not required, the activity of a compound as an mAChR M4 receptor allosteric agonist offers advantages when the cholinergic potential at a given synapse is low.
[0061] As used herein, the term "mAChR M4 receptor neutral allosteric ligand" refers to any exogenously administered compound or drug that binds to the allosteric site in animals, particularly mammals, e.g., humans, without affecting the binding or function of agonists or natural ligands at the orthosteric site. However, neutral allosteric ligands can block the action of other allosteric modulators that act through the same site.
[0062] For the recitation of numerical ranges herein, each intervening number is specifically contemplated to the same degree of precision. For example, for the range 6 to 9, the numbers 7 and 8 are contemplated in addition to 6 and 9, and for the range 6.0 to 7.0, the numbers 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, 6.7, 6.8, 6.9, and 7.0 are specifically contemplated.

Enhancement of mAChR M4 activity can be demonstrated by methods known in the art. For example, activation of mAChR M4 activity can be demonstrated by Ca 2+ Positive allosteric modulator activity can be determined by measuring calcium flux in response to an agonist, e.g., acetylcholine, in cells loaded with a sensitive fluorescent dye (e.g., Fluo-4) and co-expression of a chimeric or promiscuous G-protein. In one embodiment, calcium flux was measured as an increase in the fluorescence static ratio. In one embodiment, positive allosteric modulator activity is measured by measuring the EC 20The concentration-dependent increase in the acetylcholine response (ie, the response of mAChR M4 at the concentration of acetylcholine that produces 20% of the maximal response) was analyzed.
[0136] In one embodiment, a compound of the invention activates the mAChR M4 response as an increase in calcium fluorescence in mAChR M4-transfected CHO-K1 cells in the presence of a compound of the invention compared to the response of equivalent CHO-K1 cells in the absence of a compound of the invention.
[0137] The compounds of the present invention may exhibit positive allosteric modulation of the mAChRM4 response to acetylcholine as an increased response to non-maximal concentrations of acetylcholine in mAChRM4-transfected CHO-K1 cells in the presence of the compound compared to the response to acetylcholine in the absence of the compound.

[0378] c. Biological activity A. Cell lines expressing muscarinic acetylcholine receptors Human and rat M4 cDNAs were cloned into the chimeric G protein G qi5 Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K1) cells purchased from the American Type Culture Collection were transfected with hM4-G using Lipofectamine 2000. qi5 Cells were grown in Ham's F-12 medium containing 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS), 20 mM HEPES, 50 μg / mL G418 sulfate, and 500 μg / mL hygromycin B. rM4-G qi5 Cells were grown in DMEM containing 10% heat-inactivated FBS, 20 mM HEPES, 400 μg / mL G418 sulfate, and 500 μg / mL hygromycin B.
[0379] B. Cell-Based Functional Assay of Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor Activity For high-throughput measurements of agonist-induced increases in intracellular calcium, CHO-K1 cells stably expressing muscarinic receptors were plated at 15,000 cells / 20 μL / well in Greiner 384-well black-walled tissue culture (TC)-treated clear-bottom plates (VWR) in growth medium lacking G418 and hygromycin. Cells were incubated overnight at 37°C and 5% CO2. The following day, cells were washed with assay buffer using an ELX405 (BioTek) and then the final volume was aspirated to 20 μL. Next, 20 μL of a 2.3 μM stock of Fluo-4 / acetoxymethyl ester (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), prepared as a 2.3 mM stock in DMSO, mixed 1:1 with 10% (w / v) Pluronic F-127, and diluted in assay buffer, was added to the wells, and the cell plates were incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 50 minutes. The dye was removed by washing with ELX405, and the final volume was aspirated to 20 μL. A compound master plate was formatted in 11-point concentration-response curve (CRC) format (1:3 dilution) in 100% DMSO with a starting concentration of 10 mM using a BRAVO liquid handler (Agilent). Test compound CRCs were then transferred to a daughter plate (240 nL) using an Echo acoustic plate reformatter (Labcyte, Sunnyvale, CA) and then diluted into assay buffer (40 μL) to a 2× stock using a Thermo Fisher Combi (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA).
[0380] Calcium influx was measured as an increase in static fluorescence ratio using a Functional Drug Screening System (FDSS) 6000 or 7000 (Hamamatsu Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). Compounds were applied to cells (20 μL, 2×) for 2–4 seconds of the protocol using the FDSS automated system, and data were collected at 1 Hz. The EC50 of 10 μL was measured at 144 seconds. 20 The muscarinic receptor agonist acetylcholine was added at a concentration of 5×, followed by 12 μL of EC50 at 230 s. 80 A concentration of acetylcholine was added (5x). Agonist activity was analyzed as a concentration-dependent increase in calcium mobilization upon compound addition. Positive allosteric modulator activity was assessed by EC 20 Antagonist activity was analyzed as a concentration-dependent increase in the acetylcholine response. 80 A concentration-dependent decrease in the acetylcholine response was analyzed. Concentration-response curves were generated using a four-parameter logistic equation in XLFit curve-fitting software (IDBS, Bridgewater, NJ) for Excel (Microsoft, Redmond, WA) or Prism (GraphPad Software, Inc., San Diego, CA).
[0381] The above assay was also operated in a second mode in which, after establishing a fluorescence baseline, an appropriate fixed concentration of a compound of the present invention was added to the cells for approximately 3 seconds, and the response in the cells was measured. After 140 seconds, an appropriate concentration of agonist was added, and the calcium response (maximum-minimal response) was measured. The EC of the agonist in the presence of the test compound was 50 Values were determined by non-linear curve fitting. EC 50 A decrease in the EC value (a shift to the left of the agonist concentration-response curve) is indicative of the degree of muscarinic positive allosteric modulation at a given concentration of the compound of the invention. 50An increase in value (a shift to the right of the agonist concentration-response curve) is indicative of the degree of muscarinic antagonism at a given concentration of a compound of the invention. The second mode also indicates whether a compound of the invention affects the maximum response of a muscarinic receptor to an agonist.
