Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] Cross-reference of related applications This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 156,853, filed on 4 March 2021, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

[0002] This book provides heterocyclic compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and methods for treating various heart diseases and conditions using such compounds. [Background technology]

[0003] This disclosure relates to specific chemical components that selectively modulate cardiac sarcomeres, specifically, specific chemical components, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods for treating various heart diseases and conditions.

[0004] The cardiac sarcomere is composed of a network of contractile and structural proteins that regulate cardiac function. The components of the cardiac sarcomere present targets for the treatment of various heart diseases and conditions, for example, by increasing contractility or by promoting complete relaxation to regulate systolic and diastolic function, respectively. The force and velocity of cardiac contraction are major determinants of organ function and are regulated by the periodic interaction of actin and myosin. The regulation of actin-myosin binding is regulated by a network of myofilament-regulating proteins and intracellular Ca2C. 2+ This is determined by the level of troponin. The troponin complex and tropomyosin are thin filamentous proteins that govern the actin-binding site, as well as the availability of the essential and regulatory light chains, while myosin-binding protein C regulates the position and mechanical properties of myosin.

[0005] Abnormalities in cardiac sarcomeres have been identified as a driving cause of various cardiac diseases and conditions, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Mutations in sarcomere proteins cause disease by making the myocardium either "high" or "low" contractile. Modifiers of cardiac sarcomeres can be used to readjust contractility and halt or reverse the course of disease.

[0006] Current drugs that target cardiac sarcomeres, such as inotropes (drugs that enhance the contractile capacity of the heart), have low selectivity for cardiac tissue and are associated with recognized adverse effects that limit their use. These adverse effects include cell damage caused by increased energy expenditure rates, worsening of relaxation abnormalities, and cytoplasmic Ca in inotropically stimulated myocardium. 2+ This includes potential arrhythmic side effects that may result from increased cyclic AMP levels. Given the limitations of current medications, new approaches are needed to improve cardiac function in HCM and HFpEF.

[0007] There remains a great need for drugs that utilize novel mechanisms of action and have the potential to deliver better outcomes in terms of symptom relief, safety, and patient mortality, both in the short and long term. Novel drugs with improved therapeutic indices compared to current drugs provide a means to achieve these clinical outcomes. Selectivity of drugs directed towards cardiac sarcomeres (e.g., by targeting cardiac myosin) has been identified as a key means to achieve this improved therapeutic indices. This disclosure provides such drugs (particularly cardiac sarcomere inhibitors) and methods of use thereof. These drugs are allosteric inhibitors of cardiac myosin. The advantages of these compounds include a broader therapeutic indices, less impact on cardiac relaxation, better pharmacokinetics, and better safety. The drugs of this disclosure are also useful in that they may enable once-daily administration for the methods of use described herein.

[0008] The present disclosure provides chemical components, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods for the treatment of heart failure including HCM and HFpEF. The compositions are inhibitors of myocardial sarcomeres, for example, inhibitors of myocardial myosin. **Summary of the Invention**

[0034] The term "substituted" means that a given group or part has one or more substituents, such as alkyl substituents or haloalkyl substituents. The term "unsubstituted" means that a given group has no substituents. When the term "substituted" is used to describe a structural system, substitution is intended to occur at any position in that system that the valence allows. When a group or part has multiple substituents, it is understood that the substituents may be the same or different from each other. In some embodiments, a substituted group or part has 1 to 5 substituents. In some embodiments, a substituted group or part has 1 substituent. In some embodiments, a substituted group or part has 2 substituents. In some embodiments, a substituted group or part has 3 substituents. In some embodiments, a substituted group or part has 4 substituents. In some embodiments, a substituted group or part has 5 substituents.

[0035] The terms "optional" or "by option" mean that the event or situation described thereafter may or may not occur, and that the description includes both instances in which the event or situation occurs and instances in which it does not. For example, "optionally substituted cyclohexyl" includes both unsubstituted and substituted cyclohexyl, as defined herein. As those skilled in the art will understand, with respect to any group containing one or more substituents, it is not intended that such group introduce any substitution or substitution pattern that is sterically impractical, synthetically unfeasible, and / or inherently unstable. It will also be understood that where a group or part is optionally substituted, this disclosure includes both embodiments in which the group or part is substituted and embodiments in which the group or part is not substituted.

[0036] The compounds disclosed and / or described herein are in concentrated isotopic form, for example, 2 H, 3 H, 11 C, 13 C and / or 14The C content may be concentrated. In one embodiment, the compound contains at least one deuterium atom. Such deuterated forms can be prepared, for example, by means described in U.S. Patents No. 5,846,514 and No. 6,334,997. Such deuterated compounds may improve the potency and increase the duration of action of the compounds disclosed and / or described herein. Deuterium-substituted compounds can be synthesized using various methods, including those described in Dean, D., Recent Advances in the Synthesis and Applications of Radiolabeled Compounds for Drug Discovery and Development, Curr. Pharm. Des., 2000; 6(10); Kabalka, G. et al., The Synthesis of Radiolabeled Compounds via Organometallic Intermediates, Tetrahedron, 1989, 45(21), 6601-21; and Evans, E., Synthesis of radiolabeled compounds, J. Radioanal. Chem., 1981, 64(1-2), 9-32.

[0037] The terms "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" or "pharmaceutically acceptable excipient" include all kinds of solvents, dispersions, coatings, antimicrobial and antifungal agents, isotonic agents and absorption retarders, etc. The use of such media and agents for pharmaceutically active substances is well known in the art. Unless any conventional media or agent is incompatible with the active ingredient, its use in the pharmaceutical composition is intended. Auxiliary active ingredients may also be incorporated into the pharmaceutical composition.

[0038] The terms “patient,” “individual,” and “subject” refer to animals such as mammals, birds, or fish. In some embodiments, the patient or subject is a mammal. Examples of mammals include mice, rats, dogs, cats, pigs, sheep, horses, cattle, and humans. In some embodiments, the patient or subject is a human, for example, a human who has been or will be the subject of treatment, observation, or experimentation. The compounds, compositions, and methods described herein may be useful for both human therapeutic and veterinary applications.

[0039] As used in this book, the term “therapeutic” refers to the ability to modulate cardiac sarcomeres. As used in this book, “modulation” refers to a change in activity compared to the activity in the absence of a chemical component, as a direct or indirect response to the presence of a chemical component described in this book. This change may be an increase or decrease in activity and may result from a direct interaction between the chemical component and the target, or from an interaction between the chemical component and one or more other factors that subsequently affect the activity of the target. For example, the presence of a chemical component may increase or decrease target activity, for example, by directly binding to the target, by increasing or decreasing the target activity of another factor (directly or indirectly), or by increasing or decreasing the amount of the target present in a cell or organism (directly or indirectly).

[0040] The terms “therapeutically effective dose” or “effective dose” refer to the amount of a compound disclosed and / or described herein that, when administered to a patient requiring the treatment defined herein, is sufficient to have an effect on such treatment. A therapeutically effective dose of a compound may be sufficient to treat a disease that responds to the modulation of myocardial sarcomeres. The therapeutically effective dose varies, for example, depending on the subject and condition being treated, the subject’s weight and age, the severity of the condition, the specific compound, the dosage regimen to be followed, the timing of administration, and the mode of administration, all of which can be readily determined by those skilled in the art. The therapeutically effective dose can be confirmed, for example, experimentally by evaluating the blood concentration of the chemical component, or theoretically by calculating its bioavailability.

[0041] "Treatment" (and related terms such as "to treat," "treated," and "to treat") includes one or more of the following: inhibiting a disease or disorder, delaying or preventing the onset of the clinical symptoms of a disease or disorder, and / or reducing a disease or disorder (i.e., causing a reduction or recurrence of clinical symptoms). This term encompasses both the complete and partial reduction of a condition or disease, as well as the complete or partial reduction of the clinical symptoms of a disease or disorder. Thus, the compounds described and / or disclosed herein may prevent the exacerbation of a pre-existing disease or disorder, assist in the management of a disease or disorder, or reduce or eliminate a disease or disorder.

[0042] "ATPase" refers to an enzyme that hydrolyzes ATP. ATPases include proteins that contain molecular motors such as myosin.

[0043] As used in this book, "selective binding" or "selective binding" refers to preferential binding to a target protein in one type of muscle or muscle fiber, as opposed to other types. For example, if a compound preferentially binds to troponin C in troponin complexes of kinetic skeletal muscle fibers or sarcomeres compared to troponin C in troponin complexes of slow-twitch muscle fibers or sarcomeres, or troponin C in troponin complexes of cardiac sarcomeres, then the compound selectively binds to kinetic skeletal muscle troponin C.

[0132] General synthesis methods Compounds of formulas (I), (IA), (I-A1), (IB), (I-B1), (IC), (I-C1), (I-C2), (ID), or (I-D1) are described below with reference to exemplary synthetic schemes for their general preparation and subsequent specific examples. Those skilled in the art will recognize that, in order to obtain the various compounds described herein, the starting materials can be suitably selected so that the ultimately desired substituents are retained throughout the reaction scheme, with or without protection, as necessary, to yield the desired product. Alternatively, it may be necessary or desirable to employ suitable groups instead of the ultimately desired substituents, which are retained throughout the reaction scheme and can be appropriately replaced with the desired substituents. Furthermore, those skilled in the art will recognize that certain functional groups (amino, carboxy, or side-chain groups) can be protected from reaction conditions using protecting groups, and that such groups can be removed under standard conditions where appropriate. Unless otherwise specified, variables are as defined above with respect to expressions (I), (IA), (I-A1), (IB), (I-B1), (IC), (I-C1), (I-C2), (ID), or (I-D1).

[0133] If it is desired to obtain a specific enantiomer of a compound, this can be achieved from a mixture of the corresponding enantiomers using any suitable conventional procedure for separating or resolving the enantiomers. For example, a diastereomer derivative can be produced by the reaction of a mixture of enantiomers, e.g., a racemate, with a suitable chiral compound. The diastereomer can then be separated by any convenient means, e.g., crystallization, to recover the desired enantiomer. In another resolving process, the racemate can be separated using chiral high-performance liquid chromatography. Alternatively, if desired, a specific enantiomer may be obtained by using a suitable chiral intermediate in one of the described steps.

[0134] Chromatography, recrystallization, and other conventional separation procedures can also be used for intermediates or final products where it is desirable to obtain specific isomers of a compound or to purify the reaction product.

[0199] Single-dose CL and V in humans ss Price prediction Non-proportional scaling for predicting human clearance and volume of distribution is based on simple interspecies relative growth scaling of intravenous pharmacokinetic parameters in mice, rats, dogs, and cynomolgus monkeys (Boxenbaum, J Pharmacokinet Biopharm 10:201-27, 1982). Prediction of human CL was performed by extrapolating plasma intravenous clearance of preclinical species. The "rule of exponents" (Mahmood & Balian, Life Sci 59:579-85, 1996) was considered in this prediction, and it has been proposed that if the simple relative growth index is between 0.71 and 0.99, a correction factor based on the maximum lifespan (MLP) of the species can be applied; if the simple relative growth index is greater than 1.0, a correction factor based on brain weight (BrW) can be applied, or a protein binding correction can be applied if available. Human volume of distribution was predicted using a similar method with simple relative growth scaling. This method has been successfully used for various drugs (Ward & Smith, Drug Metab Dispos 32:612-19, 2004; McGinnity et al., Curr Drug Metab 8:463-79, 2007). Predictive data for selected compounds are provided in Table F. [Table 12]

The efflux rate constant (k) was calculated as the absolute value of the slope of the linear regression of the logarithm of concentration against time for the last three data points in the concentration-time profile. The apparent efflux half-life (t) was calculated. 1 / 2 The value of ) was calculated as ln(2) / k. The area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) value was estimated using the linear trapezoidal method. AUC t The values ​​were calculated from the administration time to the last measurable concentration. AUC ∞ The value corresponds to the AUC. t It was calculated as the sum of the ratios obtained by dividing the last detectable concentration by k. Plasma clearance (CL) is dose / AUC. ∞ Calculated from the average dwell time (MRT) extrapolated to infinity. ∞) was estimated by moment analysis. V ss MRT ∞ Calculated from ×CL. As observed, the maximum concentration (C) max ) and C max Time to reach (t max ) was recorded. Because this was a crossover trial, bioavailability was recorded as dAUC. ∞、po / dAUC ∞、iv The multiplier ×100% was calculated. Here, dAUC was the dose-normalized AUC value from the same animals given IV and PO doses. Data for the tested compounds are provided in Table H. The tested compounds were prepared according to the synthesis procedures described in this document. [Table 14]

[0203] Cassette-administered CL and V in humans ss Price prediction For PK data derived from cassette IV administration, human clearance and distribution volume were predicted using single-species allometry. In this case, the values ​​were predicted from the plasma intravenous clearance of PK in dogs and monkeys after applying protein binding correction (Tang, Drug Metab Dispos 33:1294-96, 2005; Patel, Journal of Pharmaceutical Research International, 22(3): 1-7, 2018). Predicted data for selected compounds are provided in Tables J and K. [Table 15] [Table 16]

[0204] Biological Example B-3: Echocardiographic Evaluation of Acute Pharmacodynamic Effects on Cardiac Contractility in Rats In vivo cardiac function was evaluated by echocardiography in male Sprague Dawley rats under isoflurane (1-3%) anesthesia. Left ventricular 2-DM-mode images were acquired parasternal long-axis before, during, and after administration of the compound. The in vivo shortening ratio was determined by M-mode image analysis using the following calculation: ((end-diastolic diameter - end-systolic diameter) / end-diastolic diameter × 100). Three pre-administration baseline M-mode images were taken at 1-minute intervals prior to compound administration. The compound was formulated in a 0.5% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose 2910 (HPMC2910):0.1% Tween® 80 suspension and delivered as a single dose (5 mL / kg) via oral enteral nutrition. Rats were lightly anesthetized 1 and 4 hours post-dose for M-mode echocardiography. Blood samples were collected simultaneously with the echocardiography to determine the corresponding compound plasma concentration. The obtained plasma concentrations were used for IC 50 and IC 10 The value was estimated. IC 50 and IC 10 The values ​​represent concentrations at which fractional shortening is 50% and 10% of the baseline contractility before administration, respectively. [Table 17]

[0205] Biological Example B-4: Determination of Time-Dependent Inhibition of CYP450 Enzymes in Vitro The time-dependent inhibitory potential of test compounds against major human cytochrome P450 isozymes using human liver microsomes was also evaluated using standard methods (Grimm et al, Drug Metab. Dispos., Jul;37(7):1355-70.doi:10.1124 / dmd.109.026716, 2009). Pooled human microsomes and selective CYP probe substrates were used for in vitro evaluation of test compounds at 25 and 50 μM as time-dependent inhibitors of seven human liver cytochrome P450 isozymes (CYP1A2, 2B6, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and 3A4). LC-MS / MS was used to quantify metabolite formation. Inhibition of each P450 enzyme in human liver microsomes was measured as the percentage decrease in activity of marker metabolite formation, as measured by LC-MS / MS, compared to the non-inhibited control (=100% activity) after time 0 and 30 minutes of incubation. The occurrence of any time-dependent inhibition was then expressed as the multiplier change in enzyme activity at time 0 compared to the activity after 30 minutes of incubation. [Table 18-1] [Table 18-2] [Table 18-3] [Table 18-4]

[0206] NA: Unavailable, CYP3A4-T: CYP3A4 activity measured with testosterone probe substrate, CYP3A4-M: CYP3A4 activity measured with midazolam probe substrate

[0207] For 3A4, in % activity measurements using both midalzolam and testosterone as probes, compounds 13, 8, 7, and 4 did not show any indication of time-dependent inhibition, as their enzyme activity did not change by more than 1.2 times. However, comparator C showed a magnification change of more than 1.5 times for both probes at concentrations of 25 μM and 50 μM. Compounds 18, 5, and 6 also showed some magnification change of more than 1.2 times at one of the concentrations tested or one of the probe-substrate tests, suggesting that there may be some change in 3A4 activity if these compounds were tested in a time-dependent format. When tested in this format, none of the tested compounds showed any change in the activity of 1A2 and 2B6. For 2C9, compound 7 showed only a 1.3-fold change in activity at a concentration of 25 μM and a 1.3-fold change in activity at a concentration of 50 μM. For 2C19, compound 5 showed a 1.3-fold change in activity at a concentration of 50 μM, and compound 4 showed a 1.4-fold change in activity at a concentration of 25 μM, but no change in the activity of compound 4 was observed at a concentration of 50 μM. For 2D6, compound 13 showed a 1.4-fold change in activity at a concentration of 50 μM, and compounds 6 and 4 showed a 1.3-fold change in activity at a concentration of 25 μM, but no change in the activity of these compounds was observed at a concentration of 50 μM. For 2C8, compound 18 showed a 1.3-fold change in activity at a concentration of 50 μM, and compound 5 showed a 2.0-fold change in activity at a concentration of 50 μM.
