METHODS AND COMPOUNDS FOR MODULATING HUNTINGTON’S DISEASE CROSS REFERENCE

[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No.63 / 587,625 filed on October 3, 2023 which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

[0002] Disclosed herein are new chimeric heterocyclic polyamide compounds and compositions and their application as pharmaceuticals for the treatment of disease. Methods to modulate the expression of a target gene comprising the CAG trinucleotide repeat sequence in a subject are also provided for the treatment of diseases such as Huntington’s disease (“HD”). BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

[0003] Huntington’s disease (“HD”) was first identified in the late 19thcentury as an autosomal dominant, neurodegenerative disorder. The symptoms of HD, which include a range of movement, cognitive and psychiatric disorders, generally appear in adulthood. HD is associated with the presence of the CAG trinucleotide repeat sequence in the huntingtin gene (HTT), which codes for a protein termed huntingtin. Subjects with more than about 36 trinucleotide repeat sequences generally present with symptoms of HD, with a larger number of trinucleotide repeat sequences associated with an earlier onset of symptoms. Pathology stems from a cascade of steps: production of poly-Q huntingtin, followed by fragmentation of the elongated huntingtin into smaller peptides, which bind together and accumulate in neurons. The effects of this cascade are pronounced in the basal ganglia and cortex of the brain.

[0004] Huntington’s disease-like syndrome refers to a group of ailments whose symptoms are similar to those of Huntington’s disease, but which lack the characteristic mutation in the HTT gene. Huntington’s disease-like 2 syndrome (“HDL2”) is associated with a count of about 40 or more CAG trinucleotide repeat sequences in the junctophilin 3 (Jph3) gene. HDL2 is a genetic disorder that has been seen in subjects with African lineage. Age of onset is inversely correlated with the number of trinucleotide repeat sequences. Symptoms of this syndrome include dystonia and chorea (uncontrolled movements), emotional disruptions, dysarthria, bradykinesia, inability to incorporate new learning, and difficulty in making decisions. Life expectancy can range from a few years post diagnosis to over a decade. The current theory holds that a poly- Q protein that is coded by the Jph3 gene forms aggregates in neuronal cells that is responsible for the pathology of the disease. However, evidence suggesting toxic gain-of-function of mRNA has also been uncovered, indicating a possible dual pathway for pathology.

[0005] In some embodiments, the mechanism set forth above provides opportunity for an effective treatment for a disease or disorder which is characterized by the presence of an excessive count of CAG trinucleotide repeat sequences in a target gene. In some embodiments, the pathology of the disease or disorder is due to the presence of mRNA containing an excessive count of CAG trinucleotide repeat sequences. In some embodiments, the pathology of the disease or disorder is due to the presence of a translation product containing an excessive count of glutamine amino acid residues. In some embodiments,the pathology of the disease or disorder is due to a loss of function in the translation product. In some embodiments, the pathology of the disease or disorder is due to a gain of function in the translation product. In some embodiments, the pathology of the disease or disorder can be alleviated by increasing the rate of transcription of the defective gene. In some embodiments, the pathology of the disease or disorder can be alleviated by decreasing the rate of transcription of the defective gene. SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE

[0006] This disclosure utilizes regulatory molecules present in cell nuclei that control gene expression. Eukaryotic cells provide several mechanisms for controlling gene replication, transcription, and / or translation. Regulatory molecules that are produced by various biochemical mechanisms within the cell can modulate the various processes involved in the conversion of genetic information to cellular components. Several regulatory molecules are known to modulate the production of mRNA and, if directed to the target gene (such as, HTT), would modulate the production of the target gene mRNA that causes diseases such as, for example, Huntington’s disease or Huntington’s disease-like syndrome, and thus reverse the progress of these diseases.

[0007] Provided herein are transcription modulator molecules for recruiting a regulatory molecule into close proximity to the target gene. In some embodiments, provided herein is a transcription modulator molecule having a first terminus, a second terminus, and an oligomeric backbone moiety, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein: a) the first terminus comprises a DNA-binding moiety having the structure of Formula (A-8):Formula (A-8), wherein: W1is hydrogen, -C1-C6haloalkyl, or -N=C(N(R1e)2)2, wherein each R1eis independently hydrogen or optionally substituted C1-C3alkyl; Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, Y5, Y6, Y7, and Y8are each independently N or CH; R2a, R2b, R2c, R2d, R2e, R2g, and R2hare each independently hydrogen, optionally substituted C1-C20alkyl, optionally substituted C2-C20alkenyl, optionally substituted C2-C20alkynyl, optionallysubstituted C1-C20aminoalkyl, optionally substituted C1-C20heteroalkyl, optionally substituted C2-C20heteroalkenyl, optionally substituted C2-C20heteroalkynyl, optionally substituted C1-C20haloalkyl, optionally substituted C1-C20hydroxyalkyl, optionally substituted C3-C10cycloalkyl, or optionally substituted 3 to 10-membered heterocycloalkyl; each of which is optionally substituted with one or more RZ; each R3aand R3bis independently hydrogen, halogen, C1-C6alkyl, -OR3c, -NR3cR3d, or -NHC(O)R3e, wherein R3cand R3dare each independently hydrogen, alkyl, or PEG; R3eis alkyl, PEG, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, or phenyl; or two R3aor two R3btogether with the atom to which they are attached form a C3-C6cycloalkyl or 4 to 6-membered heterocycloalkyl; or one R3aand one R3btogether with the atoms to which they are attached form a C3-C6cycloalkyl or 4 to 6-membered heterocycloalkyl; and each RZis independently halogen, -CN, -OH, -ORZa, -N3, -NRZaRZb, -CO(O)RZc, -C(O)ORZc, - C(O)NRZaRZb, C1-C10alkyl, C1-C10haloalkyl, C1-C10heteroalkyl, C3-C10 cycloalkyl, 3 to 10- membered heterocycloalkyl, phenyl, or optionally 5 to 10-membered heteroaryl; wherein RZaand RZbare each independently hydrogen, alkyl, haloalkyl, or PEG; and RZcis alkyl, haloalkyl, PEG, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, or phenyl; b) the second terminus comprises a protein-binding moiety capable of binding to a regulatory molecule that modulates expression of a gene; and c) the oligomeric backbone links the first terminus and the second terminus.

[0008] In some embodiments, the DNA binding moiety can bind selectively a trinucleotide repeat sequence of for example, HTT. The recruiting moiety, linked to the DNA binding moiety, will thus be held in proximity to the target gene; will recruit the regulatory molecule into proximity with the gene; and the regulatory molecule will modulate expression, and therefore counteract the production of defective target gene by direct interaction with the target gene. This mechanism may provide an effective treatment for HD, which is caused by the expression of defective HTT, where correction of the expression of the defective target gene thus represents an effective method for the treatment for these diseases.

[0009] The DNA binding moiety comprises a polyamide segment that will bind selectively to the target CAG sequence. Polyamides designed by for example Dervan (U.S. Patent Nos.9,630,950 and 8,524,899) and others can selectively bind to selected DNA sequences. These polyamides sit in the minor groove of double helical DNA and form hydrogen bonding interactions with the Watson-Crick base pairs. Polyamides that selectively bind to particular DNA sequences can be designed by linking monoamide building blocks according to established chemical rules. One building block is provided for each DNA base pair, with each building block binding noncovalently and selectively to one of the DNA base pairs: A / T, T / A, G / C, and C / G. Following this guideline, trinucleotides bind to molecules with three amide units, i.e. tri-amides. In general, these polyamides can orient in either direction of a DNA sequence.

[0010] In principle, longer DNA sequences can be targeted with higher specificity and / or higher affinity by combining a larger number of monoamide building blocks into longer polyamide chains. Ideally, the binding affinity for a polyamide would simply be equal to the sum of each individual monoamide / DNA base pair interaction. In practice, however, due to the geometric mismatch between the fairly rigid polyamide and DNA structures, longer polyamide sequences do not bind to longer DNA sequences as tightly as would be expected from a simple additive contribution. The geometric mismatch between longer polyamide sequences and longer DNA sequences induces an unfavorable geometric strain that subtracts from the binding affinity than would be otherwise expected.

[0011] The disclosure provides for transcription modulator molecules that comprise a DNA binding moiety (for example a polyamide comprising multi-amine subunits) that is connected by a spacer (for example a linker moiety or oligomeric backbone) to a protein binding moiety. The spacer can alleviate the geometric strain that would otherwise decrease binding affinity of a larger polyamide sequence.

[0012] It should be understood, however, that the detailed description and the specific examples, while indicating specific embodiments, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the instant disclosure will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description. INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE

[0013] All publications, patents, and patent applications mentioned in this specification are herein incorporated by reference to the same extent as if each individual publication, patent, or patent application was specifically and individually indicated to be incorporated by reference. To the extent publications and patents or patent applications incorporated by reference contradict the disclosure contained in the specification, the specification is intended to supersede and / or take precedence over any such contradictory material.

In some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered to animals.

[0540] In another aspect, provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptableexcipient. Pharmaceutical compositions are formulated in a conventional manner using one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients that facilitate processing of the active compounds into preparations that can be used pharmaceutically. Proper formulation is dependent upon the route of administration chosen. A summary of pharmaceutical compositions described herein can be found, for example, in Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, Nineteenth Ed (Easton, Pa.: Mack Publishing Company, 1995); Hoover, John E., Remington’s Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pennsylvania 1975; Liberman, H.A. and Lachman, L., Eds., Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms, Marcel Decker, New York, (N.Y., 1980; and Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms and Drug Delivery Systems, Seventh Ed. (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins1999), herein incorporated by reference for such disclosure.

[0541] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable excipient is selected from carriers, binders, filling agents, suspending agents, flavoring agents, sweetening agents, disintegrating agents, dispersing agents, surfactants, lubricants, colorants, diluents, solubilizers, moistening agents, plasticizers, stabilizers, penetration enhancers, wetting agents, anti-foaming agents, antioxidants, preservatives, and any combinations thereof.

[0542] The dose of a pharmaceutical agent described herein for treating a disease or disorder may depend upon the subject’s condition, that is, stage of the disease, severity of symptoms caused by the disease, general health status, as well as age, gender, and weight, and other factors apparent to a person skilled in the medical art. Pharmaceutical compositions may be administered in a manner appropriate to the disease to be treated as determined by persons skilled in the medical arts. In addition to the factors described herein and above related to use of pharmaceutical agent for treating a disease or disorder, suitable duration and frequency of administration of the pharmaceutical agent may also be determined or adjusted by such factors as the condition of the patient, the type and severity of the patient’s disease, the particular form of the active ingredient, and the method of administration. Optimal doses of an agent may generally be determined using experimental models and / or clinical trials. The optimal dose may depend upon the body mass, weight, or blood volume of the subject. The use of the minimum dose that is sufficient to provide effective therapy is usually preferred. Design and execution of pre-clinical and clinical studies for a pharmaceutical agent, including when administered for prophylactic benefit, described herein are well within the skill of a person skilled in the relevant art. When two or more pharmaceutical agents are administered to treat a disease or disorder, the optimal dose of each pharmaceutical agent may be different, such as less than when either agent is administered alone as a single agent therapy. In certain particular embodiments, two pharmaceutical agents in combination may act synergistically or additively, and either agent may be used in a lesser amount than if administered alone. An amount of a pharmaceutical agent that may be administered per day may be, for example, between about 0.01 mg / kg and 100 mg / kg, e.g., between about 0.1 to 1 mg / kg, between about 1 to 10 mg / kg, between about 10-50 mg / kg, between about 50-100 mg / kg body weight. In other embodiments, the amount of a pharmaceutical agent that may be administered per day is between about 0.01 mg / kg and 1000 mg / kg, between about 100-500 mg / kg, or between about 500-1000 mg / kg body weight. The optimaldose, per day or per course of treatment, may be different for the disease or disorder to be treated and may also vary with the administrative route and therapeutic regimen. Definitions
