[Technical Field]
[0001] Related applications This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 975,529, filed on 12 February 2020, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. [Background technology]
[0002] Transcriptional abnormalities due to defects in chromatin remodeling activity have a significant impact on tumorigenesis. Tumor exome sequencing studies have shown that the multi-subunit SWI / SNF chromatin remodeling complex is mutated in approximately 20% of human cancers and contains one of two mutually exclusive ATPases, SMARCA2 or SMARCA4. Previous studies have revealed a synthetic lethal relationship between SMARCA2 and SMARCA4, with SMARCA2 being highly dependent in SMARCA4-deficient cancer cells. SMARCA4 mutations or loss of expression occur in many cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer. Furthermore, blocking SMARCA2 using biological methods such as knockout or knockdown is lethal to cancer cells. Therefore, targeted degradation of SMARCA2 or SMARCA4 is an attractive method for treating many cancers. However, to date, there are no small molecule treatments that target SMARCA2 or SMARCA4 and are approved for use in humans. [Overview of the project] [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are a class of drug molecules in which a target-binding ligand is covalently bound to an E3 ligase-binding ligand that can form a target-PROTAC-ligase ternary complex. The ternary complex directs the ubiquitin-proteasome system to degrade the target protein.
[0008] PROTACs exhibit higher selectivity for protein degradation than the target ligands themselves, and their degradation is not limited to protein domains functionally involved in disease; therefore, they extend the proteome, leading to the development of new drugs. This specification discloses PROTACS that interfere with the function of the SWI / SNF complex in cancer cells by targeting certain proteins, such as the core catalytic subunit SMARCA2.

[0030] Pharmaceutical composition The compositions and methods of embodiments of the present invention may be used to treat individuals requiring the compositions and methods of embodiments of the present invention. In some embodiments, the individuals are mammals, such as humans or non-human mammals. When administered to animals such as humans, the compositions or compounds are preferably administered as a pharmaceutical composition comprising, for example, the compounds of the present invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are well known in the art and include, for example, aqueous solutions, such as water or physiologically buffered saline or other solvents or vehicles, such as glycols, glycerols, oils such as olive oil or injectable organic esters. In preferred embodiments, when such a pharmaceutical composition is for human administration, particularly for invasive administration routes (i.e., routes such as injection or implantation that avoid transport or diffusion across the epithelial barrier), the aqueous solution is pyrogenic or substantially pyrogenic. Excipients may be selected, for example, to result in delayed release of the active ingredient or to selectively target one or more cells, tissues or organs. Pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of dosage units such as tablets, capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), granules, lyophilized reconstituters, powders, solutions, syrups, suppositories, and injections. Compositions may also be present in transdermal delivery systems, such as skin patches. Compositions may also be present in solutions suitable for topical administration, such as lotions, creams, or ointments.
[0031] A pharmaceutically acceptable carrier may contain a physiologically acceptable active substance that acts to stabilize, increase the solubility of, or increase the absorption of a compound, such as the compound of the present invention. Examples of such physiologically acceptable active substances include carbohydrates such as glucose, sucrose, or dextran; antioxidants such as ascorbic acid or glutathione; chelating agents; low molecular weight proteins; or other stabilizers or excipients. The selection of a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier containing a physiologically acceptable active substance depends, for example, on the route of administration of the composition. The preparation or pharmaceutical composition may be a self-emulsifying drug delivery system or a self-microemulsifying drug delivery system. The pharmaceutical composition (preparation) may also be a liposome or other polymer matrix, which may incorporate, for example, the compound of the present invention. For example, liposomes containing phospholipids or other lipids are non-toxic, physiologically acceptable, and metabolizable carriers that are relatively easy to prepare and administer.
[0032] The phrase "pharmaceutically acceptable" is used herein to mean a compound, material, composition, and / or dosage form suitable for use in contact with human and animal tissues without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic reactions, or other problems or complications, in proportion to a reasonable benefit / risk ratio, within the bounds of sound medical judgment.
[0033] As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” means a pharmaceutically acceptable material, composition, or vehicle, such as a liquid or solid filler, diluent, excipient, solvent, or encapsulating material. Each carrier must be “acceptable” in the sense that it is compatible with the other components of the formulation and is not harmful to the patient. Some examples of materials that can function as a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier include: (1) sugars such as lactose, glucose, and sucrose; (2) starches such as corn starch and potato starch; (3) cellulose, and its derivatives such as sodium carboxymethylcellulose, ethylcellulose, and cellulose acetate; (4) powdered tragacanth; (5) malt; (6) gelatin; (7) talc; (8) excipients such as cocoa butter and suppository wax; (9) peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, and corn oil. Examples include oils such as soybean oil; (10) glycols such as propylene glycol; (11) polyols such as glycerin, sorbitol, mannitol, and polyethylene glycol; (12) esters such as ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; (13) agar; (14) buffering agents such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; (15) alginic acid; (16) water that does not contain pyrogens; (17) isotonic saline; (18) Ringer's solution; (19) ethyl alcohol; (20) phosphate buffer; and (21) other non-toxic, suitable substances used in pharmaceutical preparations.
[0034] Pharmaceutical compositions (preparations) can be administered to a subject by any of a number of routes of administration, including, for example, oral (e.g., aqueous or non-aqueous solutions or suspensions, tablets, capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), boluses, powders, granules, pastes for application to the tongue); absorption through the oral mucosa (e.g., sublingual); subcutaneous; transdermal (e.g., as a patch applied to the skin); and topical (e.g., as a cream, ointment, or spray applied to the skin). Compounds can also be formulated for inhalation. In some embodiments, compounds can be simply dissolved or suspended in sterile water. Details of suitable routes of administration and compositions suitable for suitable routes of administration can be found, for example, in U.S. Patents 6,110,973, 5,763,493, 5,731,000, 5,541,231, 5,427,798, 5,358,970 and 4,172,896, and the patents cited herein.
[0035] The formulations can be conveniently provided in unit dosage forms and can be prepared by any method well known in the field of pharmacy. The amount of active ingredient that can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form varies depending on the host being treated and the specific mode of administration. The amount of active ingredient that can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form is generally the amount of the compound that produces the therapeutic effect. Generally, out of 100%, this amount is in the range of about 1% to about 99%, preferably about 5% to about 70%, and most preferably about 10% to about 30% of the active ingredient.
[0036] Methods for preparing these formulations or compositions include the step of combining an active compound, such as the compound of the present invention, with a carrier and optionally one or more auxiliary components. Generally, formulations are prepared by uniformly and tightly combining the compound of the present invention with a liquid carrier, or a finely divided solid carrier, or both, and then optionally shaping the product.
[0037] Formulations of the present invention suitable for oral administration may be in the form of capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), cachets, pills, tablets, lozenges (using flavored base ingredients, usually sucrose and gum arabic or tragacanth), lyophilized agents, powders, granules, or as solutions or suspensions in aqueous or non-aqueous liquids, or as oil-in-water or water-in-oil liquid emulsions, or as elixirs or syrups, or as lozenges (using inert bases such as gelatin and glycerin, or sucrose and gum arabic), and / or as mouthwashes, etc., each containing a predetermined amount of the compound of the present invention as an active ingredient.
[0038] To prepare solid dosage forms for oral administration (capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), tablets, pills, sugar-coated tablets, powders, granules, etc.), the active ingredient is mixed with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate, and / or any of the following: (1) fillers or bulking agents such as starch, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol and / or silicic acid; (2) binders such as carboxymethylcellulose, alginate, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose and / or gum arabic; (3) water-retaining agents such as glycerol; (4) cold Disintegrants such as tallow, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates and sodium carbonate; (5) Dissolution retarders such as paraffin; (6) Absorption accelerators such as quaternary ammonium compounds; (7) Wetting agents such as cetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate; (8) Absorbents such as kaolin and bentonite clay; (9) Lubricants such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfate and mixtures thereof; (10) Complexing agents such as modified and unmodified cyclodextrins; and (11) Colorants. In the case of capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), tablets and pills, the pharmaceutical composition may also include buffers. Similar types of solid compositions may also be used as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules, using excipients such as lactose and high molecular weight polyethylene glycol.
[0039] Tablets may be prepared by compression or molding, with one or more optional auxiliary components. Compressed tablets may be prepared using a binder (e.g., gelatin or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose), a lubricant, an inert diluent, a preservative, a disintegrant (e.g., sodium starch glycolate or crosslinked sodium carboxymethylcellulose), a surfactant, or a dispersant. Molded tablets may be prepared by molding a mixture of powdered compounds moistened with an inert liquid diluent using appropriate machinery.
[0040] Tablets, as well as other solid dosage forms of pharmaceutical compositions such as sugar-coated tablets, capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), pills and granules, may optionally be notched or prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulation field. Tablets, as well as other solid dosage forms of pharmaceutical compositions such as sugar-coated tablets, capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), pills and granules, may also be formulated to provide delayed or controlled release of the active ingredient therein, for example, by using hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, other polymer matrices, liposomes and / or spheres in various proportions to provide a desired release profile. Tablets, as well as other solid dosage forms of pharmaceutical compositions such as sugar-coated tablets, capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), pills and granules, may be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacterial-retaining filter or by incorporating a sterilizer in the form of a sterile solid composition that can be dissolved in sterile water or any other sterile injection medium immediately before use. These compositions may optionally contain an opacifier and may optionally release the active ingredient in a delayed manner, either only in or preferentially in a specific part of the gastrointestinal tract. Examples of embedding compositions that can be used include polymeric substances and waxes. The active ingredient may also be in a microencapsulated form, as appropriate, together with one or more of the excipients.
[0041] Liquid dosage forms useful for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, lyophilized products for reconstitution, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs. In addition to the active ingredient, liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents, cyclodextrins and their derivatives, solubilizers and emulsifiers, such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, oils (especially cottonseed oil, peanut oil, corn oil, germ oil, olive oil, castor oil, and sesame oil), glycerol, tetrahydrofuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, and sorbitan fatty acid esters, as well as mixtures thereof.
[0042] In addition to inert diluents, oral compositions may also contain auxiliary agents such as humectants, emulsifiers and suspending agents, sweeteners, flavoring agents, colorants, fragrances and preservatives.
[0043] In addition to the active compound, the suspension may contain suspending agents such as ethoxylated isostearyl alcohol, polyoxyethylene sorbitol and sorbitan esters, microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum metahydroxide, bentonite, agar and tragacanth, and mixtures thereof.
[0044] Dosage forms for topical or transdermal administration include powders, sprays, ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, solutions, patches, and inhalants. The active compound may be mixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and any preservatives, buffers, or propellants that may be required.
[0045] In addition to the active compound, ointments, pastes, creams, and gels may contain excipients such as animal and vegetable fats, oils, waxes, paraffin, starch, tragacanth, cellulose derivatives, polyethylene glycol, silicone, bentonite, silicic acid, talc, and zinc oxide or mixtures thereof.
[0046] In addition to the active compound, the powders and sprays may contain excipients such as lactose, talc, silicic acid, aluminum hydroxide, calcium silicate, and polyamide powders or mixtures thereof. The sprays may further contain conventional propellants such as chlorofluorohydrocarbons and volatile unsubstituted hydrocarbons such as butane and propane.
[0047] Transdermal patches offer the further advantage of providing controlled delivery of the compounds of the present invention to the body. Such dosage forms can be prepared by dissolving or dispersing the active compound in a suitable medium. Absorption enhancers can also be used to increase the flow of the compound across the skin. The rate of such flow can be controlled by providing a rate-controlled membrane or by dispersing the compound in a polymer matrix or gel.
[0048] As used herein, the terms “parenteral administration” and “administered parenterally” refer to modes of administration other than enteral and topical administration, typically by injection, and include, but are not limited to, intravenous, intramuscular, intra-arterial, intrathecal, intracapsular, intraorbital, intracardiac, intradermal, intraperitoneal, transtracheal, subcutaneous, subepidermal, intra-articular, subcapsular, subarachnoid, intraspinal, and intrasternal injections and infusions. A pharmaceutical composition suitable for parenteral administration comprises one or more pharmaceutically acceptable sterile isotonic aqueous or non-aqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions, or emulsions, or sterile powders that can be reconstituted into a sterile injection solution or dispersion immediately before use, and may contain antioxidants, buffers, bacteriostatic agents, solutes that are isotonic with the blood of the recipient to whom the formulation is intended, or suspending agents or thickeners, and comprises one or more active compounds in combination with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable sterile isotonic aqueous or non-aqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions, or emulsions, or sterile powders that can be reconstituted into a sterile injection solution or dispersion immediately before use.
[0049] Suitable aqueous and non-aqueous carriers that may be used in the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention include water, ethanol, polyols (such as glycerol, propylene glycol, and polyethylene glycol) and suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils such as olive oil, and injectable organic esters such as ethyl oleate. Appropriate fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of coating materials such as lecithin, by maintaining the required particle size in the case of dispersions, and by the use of surfactants.
[0050] These compositions may also contain auxiliary agents such as preservatives, humectants, emulsifiers, and dispersants. Prevention of microbial action can be ensured by including various antimicrobial and antifungal agents, such as parabens, chlorobutanol, and phenolsorbic acid. It may also be desirable to include isotonic agents such as sugars and sodium chloride in the composition. Furthermore, the inclusion of absorption-delaying agents such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin can lead to prolonged absorption of the pharmaceutical form for injection.
[0051] In some cases, it is desirable to delay the absorption of a drug from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection in order to prolong its effects. This can be achieved by using a liquid suspension of a crystalline or amorphous material with low water solubility. The rate of drug absorption depends on its dissolution rate, which may depend on the crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally administered drug form can be achieved by dissolving or suspending the drug in an oily vehicle.
[0052] Depot formulations for injection are prepared by forming a microencapsulated matrix of the subject compound within a biodegradable polymer such as polylactide-polyglycolide. The rate of drug release can be controlled depending on the drug-to-polymer ratio and the properties of the specific polymer used. Other examples of biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot formulations for injection can also be prepared by encapsulating the drug in liposomes or microemulsions that conform to body tissues.
[0053] For use in the method of the present invention, the active compound can be provided either by itself or as a pharmaceutical composition containing, for example, 0.1 to 99.5% (more preferably 0.5 to 90%) of the active ingredient in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
[0054] The method of delivery may also be provided by rechargeable or biodegradable devices. In recent years, various sustained-release polymeric devices have been developed and tested in vivo for the controlled delivery of drugs, including protein-based biopharmaceuticals. A variety of biocompatible polymers (including hydrogels), including both biodegradable and non-biodegradable polymers, can be used to form implants for the sustained release of compounds at specific target sites.
[0055] The actual dose level of the active ingredient in a pharmaceutical composition can be varied to obtain an amount of the active ingredient that is not toxic to the patient and is effective in achieving the desired therapeutic response for a particular patient, composition, and mode of administration.
[0056] The selected dosage level depends on a variety of factors, including the activity of the specific compound or combination of compounds used, or its ester, salt, or amide; the route of administration; the time of administration; the rate of excretion of the specific compound used; the duration of treatment; other drugs, compounds, and / or materials used in combination with the specific compound used; the age, sex, weight, condition, overall health, and prior medical history of the patient being treated; and similar factors well known in the field of medicine.
[0057] A physician or veterinarian with ordinary art in the art can easily determine and prescribe the therapeutically effective dose of the required pharmaceutical composition. For example, a physician or veterinarian can start with a dose of the pharmaceutical composition or compound at a level lower than the level required to achieve the desired therapeutic effect and gradually increase the dose until the desired effect is achieved. Methods for determining efficacy and dosage are known to those skilled in the art (Isselbacher et al. (1996) Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine 13th ed., 1814-1882, incorporated herein by reference).
[0058] Generally, the appropriate daily dose of the active compound used in the compositions and methods of the present invention is the amount of the compound that is the minimum effective dose to produce a therapeutic effect. Such an effective dose generally depends on the factors mentioned above.
[0059] If desired, the effective daily dose of the active compound may be administered in unit dosage form as one, two, three, four, five, six or more subdoses, administered separately at appropriate intervals throughout the day. In some embodiments of the present invention, the active compound may be administered two or three times a day. In preferred embodiments, the active compound is administered once a day.

[0066] definition Unless otherwise defined herein, scientific and technical terms used in this application shall have meanings that are generally understood by those skilled in the art. In general, the nomenclature and techniques used in relation to chemistry, cell and tissue culture, molecular biology, cell and cancer biology, neurobiology, neurochemistry, virology, immunology, microbiology, pharmacology, genetics, and protein and nucleic acid chemistry described herein are well known and commonly used in the art.
[0067] The methods and techniques described herein are generally carried out in accordance with conventional methods well known in the art, unless otherwise specified, as described in the various general and more specific references cited and discussed herein. See, for example, “Principles of Neural Science”, McGraw-Hill Medical, New York, NY (2000); Motulsky, “Intuitive Biostatistics”, Oxford University Press, Inc. (1995); Lodish et al., “Molecular Cell Biology, 4th ed.”, WH Freeman & Co., New York (2000); Griffiths et al., “Introduction to Genetic Analysis, 7th ed.”, WH Freeman & Co., NY (1999); and Gilbert et al., “Developmental Biology, 6th ed.”, Sinauer Associates, Inc., Sunderland, MA (2000).
[0068] Chemical terms used herein, unless otherwise defined herein, are used in accordance with the common usage in the art, as exemplified by “The McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Chemical Terms”, Parker S., Ed. McGraw-Hill, San Francisco, CA (1985).
[0069] All of the foregoing, as well as any other publications, patents, and published patent applications cited herein, are incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any conflict, this Specified Version, including its specific definitions, shall prevail.
[0070] The term “active substance” is used herein to refer to chemical compounds (such as organic or inorganic compounds, mixtures of chemical compounds), biological macromolecules (such as nucleic acids, parts of antibodies and antibodies including humanized antibodies, chimeric antibodies and human antibodies and monoclonal antibodies, proteins or parts thereof, e.g., peptides, lipids, carbohydrates), or extracts made from biological materials such as cells or tissues of bacteria, plants, fungi, or animals (especially mammals). Examples of active substances include active substances whose structure is publicly known and active substances whose structure is unknown. The ability of such active substances to inhibit or promote AR degradation may make such active substances suitable as “therapeutic agents” in the methods and compositions of this disclosure.
[0071] The terms "patient," "subject," or "individual" are used interchangeably and refer to either a human or a non-human animal. These terms include mammals such as humans, primates, domesticated animals (including cattle and pigs), companion animals (e.g., canids and felines), and rodents (e.g., mice and rats).
[0072] To “treat” a symptom or patient means to take measures to obtain a beneficial or desired outcome, including clinical outcomes. As used herein and as is well understood in the art, “treatment” is an approach to obtain a beneficial or desired outcome, including clinical outcomes. Beneficial or desired clinical outcomes may include, but are not limited to, relief or improvement of one or more symptoms or symptoms, whether detectable or undetectable; reduction of disease severity; stabilization (i.e., non-exacerbating) of the disease; prevention of disease spread; delay or slowing of disease progression; improvement or relief of the disease state; and remission (whether partial or total). “Treatment” may also mean extending survival compared to the survival expected without treatment.
[0073] The term “prevent” is recognized and well understood in the art and, when used in relation to symptoms such as local recurrence (e.g., pain), diseases such as cancer, syndrome complexes such as heart failure, or any other medical symptoms, includes the administration of a composition that reduces the frequency of symptoms of a medical symptom in a subject or delays the onset of symptoms of a medical symptom compared to a subject that has not received the composition. Thus, cancer prevention includes, for example, reducing the number of detectable cancerous growths in a population of patients receiving prophylactic treatment compared to an untreated control population, and / or delaying the appearance of detectable cancerous growths in the treated population by, for example, a statistically and / or clinically significant amount compared to an untreated control population.
[0074] "Administering" a substance, compound, or active agent to a subject, or "administering" a substance, compound, or active agent, can be done using one of the various methods known to those skilled in the art. For example, compounds or active agents can be administered intravenously, transarterially, intradermally, intramuscularly, intraperitoneally, subcutaneously, ophthalmally, sublingually, orally (by ingestion), intranasally (by inhalation), intraspinally, intracerebrally, and transdermally (e.g., by absorption through the skin canal). Compounds or active agents can also be appropriately introduced by rechargeable or biodegradable polymer devices or other devices, such as patches and pumps, or formulations, that provide sustained release, delayed release, or controlled release of the compound or active agent. Administration can also be done, for example, once, multiple times, and / or over one or more extended periods.
[0075] The appropriate method for administering a substance, compound, or active agent to a subject also depends, for example, on the subject's age and / or health condition, as well as the chemical and biological properties of the compound or active agent (e.g., solubility, digestibility, bioavailability, stability, and toxicity). In some embodiments, the compound or active agent is administered orally, for example, by ingestion. In some embodiments, the orally administered compound or active agent is a sustained-release or delayed-release formulation, or is administered using a device for such delayed-release or sustained-release.
[0076] As used herein, the term “conjoint administration” refers to any form of administration of two or more different therapeutic agents such that a second active agent is administered while a previously administered therapeutic agent is still effective in the body (for example, the two active agents are effective simultaneously in the patient, which may include a synergistic effect between the two active agents). For example, different therapeutic compounds may be administered simultaneously or sequentially, either in the same formulation or in separate formulations. Thus, an individual receiving such treatment may benefit from the combined effect of the different therapeutic agents.
[0077] The "therapeutic effective dose" of a drug or active substance is the amount of the drug or active substance that, when administered to a subject, produces the intended therapeutic effect. Complete prophylactic effect does not necessarily result from a single dose, but may only occur after a series of doses. Therefore, the therapeutic effective dose may be administered in one or more doses. The exact effective dose required for a subject depends, for example, on the subject's size, health condition and age, as well as the nature and severity of the condition being treated, such as cancer or MDS. A person skilled in the art can easily determine the effective dose for a given situation through routine experimentation.

Exemplary organic bases that form suitable salts include aliphatic, alicyclic, or aromatic organic amines such as methylamine, trimethylamine, and picoline or ammonia. The selection of suitable salts is known to those skilled in the art.
[0130] Many of the compounds useful in the methods and compositions of this disclosure have at least one chiral center in their structure. This chiral center may exist in an R or S configuration, and the R and S notations are used in accordance with the rules set out in Pure Appl. Chem. (1976), 45, 11-30. This disclosure intends all stereoisomeric forms, including enantiomers and diastereoisomers, of compounds, salts, prodrugs, or mixtures thereof (including all possible mixtures of stereoisomers). See, for example, International Publication No. 01 / 062726.
[0131] Furthermore, certain compounds containing alkenyl groups may exist as Z (tuzamen) or E (entgegen) isomers. In each example, the disclosure includes both mixtures and distinct individual isomers.
[0132] Some compounds may also exist in tautomeristic forms. Such forms, although not expressly shown in the formulas described herein, are intended to be included within the scope of this disclosure.
[0133] A “prodrug” or “pharmaceutically acceptable prodrug” refers to a compound that, after administration, is metabolized in the host, for example, by hydrolysis or oxidation, to form a compound described herein (e.g., a compound of formula I). Typical examples of prodrugs include compounds having a biologically unstable or cleavable (protecting) group on the functional moiety of an active compound. Prodrugs include compounds that can be oxidized, reduced, aminated, deaminated, hydroxylated, dehydroxylated, hydrolyzed, dehydrolyzed, alkylated, dealkylated, acylated, deacylated, phosphorylated, or dephosphorylated to produce an active compound. Examples of prodrugs using esters or phosphoramides as biologically unstable or cleavable (protecting) groups are disclosed in U.S. Patents 6,875,751, 7,585,851, and 7,964,580, which are incorporated herein by reference. The prodrugs of this disclosure are metabolized to produce a compound of formula I. In certain embodiments, this disclosure includes, within its scope, prodrugs of the compounds described herein. Conventional procedures for the selection and preparation of appropriate prodrugs are described, for example, in “Design of Prodrugs” Ed. H. Bundgaard, Elsevier, 1985.
[0134] As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” means a pharmaceutically acceptable material, composition, or vehicle, such as a liquid or solid filter, diluent, excipient, solvent, or encapsulating material, that is useful for formulating a drug for pharmaceutical or therapeutic use.
[0135] As used herein, the terms “Log,” “LogS,” or “logS” of solubility are used in the art to quantify the water solubility of a compound. The water solubility of a compound significantly affects its absorption and distribution characteristics. Low solubility is often associated with poor absorption. The LogS value is the logarithm (base 10) of the solubility measured in moles / liter, with the units removed. [Examples]
