[Technical Field]
[0001] Related applications This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application 62 / 724,423 filed on 29 August 2018; and U.S. Provisional Patent Application 62 / 859,457 filed on 10 June 2019.
[0002] This disclosure relates to novel compounds and methods useful for inhibiting αvβ6 integrin. [Background technology]
[0003] Receptors of the heterodimeric integrin family regulate cell morphology and cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix in response to exogenous and endogenous signals.
[0004] Integrin signaling regulates cell survival, cell cycle progression, cell differentiation, and cell migration.
[0005] Integrin receptors can transmit signals to cells primarily in both "inside to outside" and "outside to inside" directions. Therefore, integrin receptors mediate cell migration and regulate cytoskeletal mechanisms by transmitting force from the extracellular matrix to the cytoskeleton, thereby achieving the shape changes required during cell migration. RGD-binding integrins can bind to and activate TGF-β, and have recently been suggested to be involved in fibrous diseases.
[0006] Integrins are expressed on the surface of most human cells. Their pathologies are responsible for a diverse range of human diseases, including platelet disorders, atherosclerosis, cancer, osteoporosis, fibrosis, diabetic neuropathy of the kidneys, macular degeneration, and various autoimmune and chronic inflammatory diseases.
[0007] The role of integrins as drug targets has long been recognized, and a total of six injectable integrin inhibitors—for inflammatory bowel disease (Entyvio®, Tysabri®), multiple sclerosis (Tysabri®), psoriasis (Raptiva®), and acute coronary insufficiency syndrome (Reopro®, Aggrastat®, Integrilin®)—have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of various indications. Of the 24 known integrin heterodimers, at least half are associated with inflammation, fibrosis, tumors, and vascular diseases. [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]
[0008] A new type of integrin inhibitor is needed. Therapeutic responses with orally administered integrin inhibitors have been remarkably lacking. Therefore, small molecule αvβ6 integrin inhibitors suitable for oral administration are still needed. The oral route is preferable for small molecule delivery because it allows for a wide range of doses, enables convenient self-administration by patients, can be adapted to various administration methods, and requires no special equipment. Therefore, it is important to identify αvβ6 integrin inhibitor compounds that are not only potent at the intended biological target but also exhibit other characteristics related to the ability of the compound to be absorbed into the body in a therapeutically effective manner (e.g., after oral administration). For example, αvβ6 integrin inhibitor compounds can be selected based on both potency and results from in vitro permeability assays (e.g., evaluating the ability of the compound to traverse a layer of Maidin-Derby canine kidney (MDCK) cells from apical to basolateral (A→B)). [Means for solving the problem]
[0009] The applicants discovered novel αvβ6 integrin inhibitor compounds and evaluated the retention, performance, and usefulness of representative examples of such compounds in terms of both biochemical capabilities (e.g., evaluation of the αvβ6 binding fluorescence polarization assay of the compounds using the assay of Example 35) and in vitro permeability characteristics (e.g., evaluation of MDCK permeability using the assay of Example 36).

[Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0029] In certain embodiments, the present invention relates to compounds that inhibit αvβ6 integrin. In certain embodiments, the compounds are selective for αvβ6 integrin.
[0030] This compound is useful for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, diabetic nephropathy, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, chronic kidney disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, solid tumors, hematological malignancies, organ transplantation, Alport syndrome, interstitial lung disease, radiation-induced fibrosis, bleomycin-induced fibrosis, asbestos-induced fibrosis, influenza-induced fibrosis, coagulation-induced fibrosis, vascular injury-induced fibrosis, aortic stenosis, or cardiac fibrosis.
[0031] <Definition> For convenience, before further description of the present invention, certain terms used in this specification, the examples, and the accompanying claims are hereby compiled. These definitions should be read in consideration of the remainder of this disclosure and understood by those skilled in the art. Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art.
[0032] To make the present invention easier to understand, certain terms and phrases are defined below and throughout the specification.
[0033] The articles "a" and "an" are used herein to refer to one or more (i.e., at least one) grammatical objects of the article. For example, "an element" means one or more elements.
[0034] When used in this specification and in the claims, the phrase "and / or" should be understood to mean "either or both" of the elements thus combined, that is, elements that may sometimes exist together and, on the other hand, may exist separately. Multiple elements listed using "and / or" should be interpreted as being of the same form, that is, "one or more" elements thus combined. Other elements other than those specifically identified by the "and / or" clause may exist, whether or not they are related to the specifically identified elements. Thus, as a non-restrictive example, when "A and / or B" is used in conjunction with open-ended language such as "includes," in one embodiment it may refer only to A (optionally including elements other than B); in another embodiment it may refer only to B (optionally including elements other than A); and in yet another embodiment it may refer to both A and B (optionally including other elements), and so on.
[0035] Where used herein in this specification and in the claims, “or” should be understood to have the same meaning as “and / or” as defined above. For example, where items in a list are separated, “or” or “and / or” should be interpreted as inclusive, that is, including at least one of several elements or lists of elements, and optionally including additional items not listed. Only terms with conflicting and explicit designations, such as “only one of ~” or “exactly one of ~” or, as used in the claims, “consisting of ~,” refer to including exactly one element of several elements or lists of elements. Generally, where used herein, the term “or” should be interpreted to indicate an exclusive choice (i.e., “either one of ~, but not both”) only when preceded by terms of exclusivity, such as “either of ~,” “one of ~,” “only one of ~,” or “exactly one of ~,” or “essentially consisting of ~,” and where used in the claims, it should have its usual meaning as used in the field of patent law.
[0036] When used herein in this specification and in the claims, the phrase “at least one” in relation to a list of one or more elements means at least one element selected from any one or more elements in the list of elements, but not necessarily including at least one of all elements specifically enumerated in the list of elements, nor excluding any combination of elements in the list of elements. This definition also allows for the possibility that there may be other elements in the list of elements other than those specifically identified, whether or not they are related to these specifically identified elements. Therefore, as a non-restrictive example, “at least one of A and B” (or equivalently, “at least one of A or B” or equivalently, “at least one of A and / or B”) could, in one embodiment, refer to at least one A that includes any multiple elements and B is absent (and optionally includes elements other than B); in another embodiment, refer to B that includes any multiple elements and A is absent (and optionally includes elements other than A); and in yet another embodiment, refer to at least one A that includes any multiple elements and at least one B that includes any multiple elements (and optionally includes other elements), and so on.
[0037] It should be understood that, unless otherwise explicitly stated, in any method claimed herein that includes multiple steps or actions, the order of the steps or actions of the method is not necessarily limited to the order in which the steps or actions of the method are listed.
[0038] In the claims and the specification, all transitional clauses, such as “comprising,” “including,” “carrying,” “having,” “containing,” “involving,” “holding,” and “composed of,” are understood to be open-ended, meaning they include but are not limited to these. Only the transitional clauses “consisting of” and “consisting essentially of” are restrictive or semi-restrictive transitional clauses, as described in Section 2111.03 of the United States Patent Office Manual of Patent Examining Procedures, respectively.
[0039] Certain compounds included in the compositions of the present invention may exist in geometric or stereoisomeric forms in particular. In addition, the polymers of the present invention may also be optically active. The present invention envisions all such compounds, including cis and trans isomers, R- and S-enantiomers, diastereomers, (D)-isomers, (L)-isomers, racemic mixtures thereof, and other mixtures thereof, which are within the scope of the present invention. Further chiral carbon atoms may be present in substituents such as alkyl groups. All such isomers, as well as mixtures thereof, are included in the present invention.
[0040] For example, if a specific enantiomer of the compound of the present invention is desired, it can be produced by asymmetric synthesis or by induction with a chiral auxiliary group. In this case, the resulting diastereomer mixture is separated, the auxiliary group is cleaved, and the pure desired enantiomer is obtained. Alternatively, if the molecule contains a basic functional group such as amino or an acidic functional group such as carboxyl, a diastereomer salt is formed using a suitable optically active acid or base, and then the diastereomer thus formed is separated by fractional crystallization or chromatographic means known in the art, after which the pure enantiomer is recovered.
[0041] The structures shown herein also include compounds that differ only in the presence of one or more isotope-rich atoms. For example, replacing hydrogen with deuterium or tritium, or carbon 13 C or 14 Compounds produced by replacing carbon with carbon-rich carbon fall within the scope of the present invention.
[0042] As used herein, the term "prodrug" encompasses compounds that are converted into therapeutic agents under physiological conditions. A common method for creating a prodrug involves a specific moiety that is hydrolyzed under physiological conditions to produce a desired molecule. In other embodiments, the prodrug is converted by the enzymatic activity of a host animal.
[0043] As used herein, the phrases “pharmaceutically acceptable excipient” or “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” mean a pharmaceutically acceptable substance, composition or medium, such as a liquid or solid filler, diluent, excipient, solvent or encapsulant, that is involved in the transport or delivery of the chemical substance of interest from one organ or part of the body to another organ or part of the body. Each carrier must be “acceptable” in the sense that it is compatible with the other components of the formulation, is not harmful to the patient, and is substantially nonpyrogenic. Some examples of substances that can function as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include: (1) sugars, e.g., lactose, glucose, and sucrose; (2) starches, e.g., corn starch and potato starch; (3) cellulose and its derivatives, e.g., sodium carboxymethylcellulose, ethylcellulose, and cellulose acetate; (4) powdered tragacanth; (5) malt; (6) gelatin; (7) talc; (8) excipients, e.g., cocoa butter and suppository wax; (9) oils, e.g., peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil, and (10) Soybean oil, etc.; Glycols, e.g., propylene glycol; (11) Polyols, e.g., glycerin, sorbitol, mannitol, and polyethylene glycol; (12) Esters, e.g., ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; (13) Agar; (14) Buffers, e.g., magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; (15) Alginic acid; (16) Water free of pyrogens; (17) Isotonic saline; (18) Ringer's solution; (19) Ethyl alcohol; (20) Phosphate buffer; and (21) Other non-toxic and suitable substances used in pharmaceutical formulations. In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention are non-pyrogenic, i.e., they do not induce much of a rise in body temperature when administered to a patient.
[0044] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" refers to relatively non-toxic inorganic and organic acid addition salts of compounds. These salts can be produced in situ during the final isolation and purification of the compound, or by reacting the purified compound in its free base form separately with a suitable organic or inorganic acid, and then isolating the resulting salt. Representative salts include hydrobromide, hydrochloride, sulfate, bisulfate, phosphate, nitrate, acetate, valerate, oleate, palmitate, stearate, lauric acid, benzoate, lactic acid, phosphate, tosylate, citrate, maleate, fumarate, succinate, tartrate, naphthylate, mesylate, glucoheptonate, lactobionate, and lauryl sulfonate (see, for example, Berge et al. (1977) "Pharmaceutical Salts", J. Pharm. Sci. 66:1-19).
[0045] In other cases, compounds useful in the methods of the present invention may contain one or more acidic functional groups, thereby enabling the formation of pharmaceutically acceptable salts with pharmaceutically acceptable bases. In these cases, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to relatively non-toxic inorganic and organic base addition salts of the compound. These salts can similarly be produced in situ during the final isolation and purification of the compound, or by separately reacting the purified compound in its free acid form with a suitable base, such as a pharmaceutically acceptable metal cation hydroxide, carbonate, or bicarbonate, with ammonia, or with a pharmaceutically acceptable organic primary, secondary, or tertiary amine. Typical alkali or alkaline earth salts include lithium salts, sodium salts, potassium salts, calcium salts, magnesium salts, and aluminum salts. Typical organic amines useful for forming base addition salts include ethylamine, diethylamine, ethylenediamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine, and piperazine (see, e.g., Berge et al., above).
[0046] With regard to use in treatment, the “therapeutic effective dose” (or “effective dose”) of a compound means the amount of the compound in a preparation that, when administered (to a mammal, preferably a human) as part of a desired method of administration, alleviates symptoms, restores a condition, or delays the onset of a disease state in accordance with clinically acceptable standards for the disorder or condition being treated, or for cosmetic purposes, for example, in a reasonable benefit / risk ratio applicable to any medical treatment.
[0047] The terms “preventive or therapeutic” treatment are recognized in the art and include administration of the composition to one or more hosts. If administered before the clinical manifestation of an undesirable condition (e.g., disease or other undesirable condition in the host animal), the treatment is preventive (i.e., it protects the host from the development of the undesirable condition), whereas if administered after the manifestation of the undesirable condition, the treatment is therapeutic (i.e., it is intended to reduce, restore, or stabilize an existing undesirable condition or its side effects).
[0048] The term "patient" refers to a mammal requiring a specific treatment. In certain embodiments, the patient is a primate, dog, cat, or horse. In certain embodiments, the patient is a human.

[0205] Patients, including but not limited to humans, may be treated by administering an effective amount of the active compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable prodrug or salt thereof to the patient in the presence of a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent. The active substance may be administered in liquid or solid form via any suitable route, e.g., orally, parenterally, intravenously, intradermally, subcutaneously, or topically.
[0206] The concentration of the active compound in a drug composition is determined by the drug's absorption, inactivation, and elimination rates, as well as other factors known to those skilled in the art. It should be noted that the dose also varies depending on the severity of the condition to be improved. Furthermore, it should be understood that for specific subjects, the specific administration method should be adjusted over time according to individual needs and the professional judgment of the person administering or supervising the administration of the composition. The concentration ranges described herein are merely illustrative and do not limit the scope or implementation of the claimed composition. The active ingredient may be administered in a single dose or divided into several smaller doses with varying time intervals.
[0207] In certain embodiments, the mode of administration of the active compound is oral. Oral compositions generally include an inert diluent or an edible carrier. These can be encapsulated in gelatin capsules or compressed into tablets. For the purpose of oral therapeutic administration, the active compound can be incorporated into an excipient and used in the form of tablets, lozenges, or capsules. Pharmaceutically compatible binders and / or auxiliary materials can be included as part of the composition.
[0208] Tablets, pills, capsules, lozenges, etc., may contain any of the following ingredients or compounds of similar properties: binders, e.g., microcrystalline cellulose, tragacanth gum, or gelatin; excipients, e.g., starch, or lactose; disintegrants, e.g., alginic acid, Primogel, or corn starch; lubricants, e.g., magnesium stearate or Sterotes; flow enhancers, e.g., colloidal silicon dioxide; sweeteners, e.g., sucrose or saccharin; or flavorings, e.g., peppermint, methyl salicylate, or orange flavoring. If the unit formulation is a capsule, it may contain a liquid carrier, e.g., fatty oil, in addition to the above types of materials. In addition, the unit formulation may contain various other materials that alter the physical form of the dose unit, e.g., sugar coatings, shellac, or other enteric drugs.
[0209] The compound can be administered as an ingredient in elixirs, suspensions, syrups, wafers, chewing gum, etc. In addition to the active compound, the syrup may contain sucrose or sweeteners as a sweetener, as well as certain preservatives, dyes and colorants, and flavorings.
[0210] Compounds or pharmaceutically acceptable prodrugs or salts thereof may also be mixed with other active substances that do not interfere with the desired effect, or with materials that assist the desired effect, such as antibiotics, antifungals, anti-inflammatory agents, or other antiviral agents, e.g., nucleoside compounds (but not limited to these). Liquids or suspensions used for parenteral, intradermal, subcutaneous, or topical application may contain the following components: sterile diluents, e.g., water for injection, saline, non-volatile oils, polyethylene glycol, glycerin, propylene glycol, or other synthetic solvents; antimicrobial agents, e.g., benzyl alcohol or methylparaben; antioxidants, e.g., ascorbic acid or sodium bisulfite; chelating agents, e.g., ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid; buffers, e.g., acetates, citrates, or phosphates; and tonicity adjusters, e.g., sodium chloride or glucose. Parental formulations may be enclosed in ampoules, disposable syringes, or multi-dose vials made of glass or plastic.
[0211] When administered intravenously, the carrier contains physiological saline and phosphate-buffered saline (PBS).
[0212] In certain embodiments, the active compound is formulated with a carrier that protects the compound from rapid elimination from the body, such as sustained-release formulations including implants and microencapsulated delivery systems (but not limited to these). Biodegradable, biocompatible polymers, such as ethylene vinyl acetate, polyacid anhydride, polyglycolic acid, collagen, polyorthoesters, and polylactic acid, can be used. For example, enteric coating compounds can be used to protect against cleavage by gastric acid. Methods for preparing such formulations are obvious to those skilled in the art. Suitable materials can also be commercially available.
[0213] Liposome suspensions (including, but not limited to, liposomes that have monoclonal antibodies against viral antigens and target infected cells) are also preferred as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. These can be prepared according to methods known to those skilled in the art, for example, as described in U.S. Patent No. 4,522,811 (incorporated by reference). For example, a liposome formulation can be prepared by dissolving a suitable lipid (e.g., stearoylphosphatidylethanolamine, stearoylphosphatidylcholine, arachadoyl phosphatidylcholine, and cholesterol) in an inorganic solvent, then distilling off the solvent, leaving a dry lipid film on the surface of a container. Next, an aqueous solution of the active compound is introduced into the container. Then, the container is manually swirled to remove the lipid material from the sides of the container and disperse the lipid aggregates, thereby forming a liposome suspension.
