Description
(HETERO)ARYL NRF2 PROTEIN DEGRADERS BACKGROUND Field
[0001] The present disclosure provides nuclear factor erythroid 2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) protein inhibitors and heterobifunctional small molecule Nrf2 protein degraders. Nrf2 inhibitors and degraders are useful for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. Background
[0002] The Proteolysis Targeting Chimera (PROTAC) strategy utilizes the proteasome- mediated proteolysis to induce targeted protein degradation. Raina et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2016, 113, 7124-7129; Zhou et al., J. Med. Chem. 2018, 61, 462-481. A PROTAC molecule is a heterobifunctional small molecule containing one ligand, which binds to the target protein of interest, and a second ligand for an E3 ligase system, tethered together by a chemical linker. Bondeson, D. P.; Crews, C. M. Targeted Protein Degradation by Small Molecules. Annu Rev Pharmacol Toxicol.2017, 57, 107-123.
[0003] Nuclear factor erythroid 2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a transcription factor that regulates the expression of antioxidant genes. Both Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) mutations and Nrf2 mutations contribute to the activation of Nrf2 in cancer cells. Nrf2 activity, for example, is associated with poor prognosis in NSCLC. Zhao et al., Front. Oncol.10:578315. doi: 10.3389 / fonc.2020.578315.
[0004] The Nrf2 pathway also plays a role in neurodegeneration, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and liver disease. Nrf2 levels vary significantly depending on physiological, temporal and pathological context. Dodson et al., Annu Rev Pharmacol Toxicol 59:555-575 (2019). Nrf2 activation promotes metabolic reprogramming. Inhibition or degradation of Nrf2 can alter metabolic processes and thus suppress tumor growth, prevent metastasis, and / or increase sensitivity to chemotherapy. There is a need in the art for Nrf2 inhibitors and degraders to treat cancer and other diseases.BRIEF SUMMARY

The present disclosure encompasses all possible stereoisomeric, e.g., diastereomeric, forms of Compounds of the Disclosure. When a Compound of the Disclosure is desired as a single enantiomer, it can be obtained either by resolution of the final product or by stereospecific synthesis from either isomerically pure starting material or use of a chiral auxiliary reagent, for example, see Z. Ma et al., Tetrahedron: Asymmetry, 8(6), pages 883-888 (1997). Resolution of the final product, an intermediate, or a starting material can be achieved by any suitable method known in the art. Additionally, in situations where tautomers of the Compounds of the Disclosure are possible, the present disclosure is intended to include all tautomeric forms of the compounds.
[0252] The present disclosure encompasses the preparation and use of salts of Compounds of the Disclosure, including pharmaceutically acceptable salts. As used herein, the "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to non-toxic salt forms of Compounds of the Disclosure. See e.g., Gupta et al., Molecules 23:1719 (2018). Salts of Compounds of the Disclosure can be prepared during the final isolation and purification of the compounds or separately by reacting the compound with an acid having a suitable cation. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of Compounds of the Disclosure can be acid addition salts formed with pharmaceutically acceptable acids. Examples of acids which can be employed to form pharmaceutically acceptable salts include inorganic acidssuch as nitric, boric, hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, and phosphoric, and organic acids such as oxalic, maleic, succinic, and citric. Nonlimiting examples of salts of compounds of the disclosure include, but are not limited to, the hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, sulfate, bisulfate, 2-hydroxyethansulfonate, phosphate, hydrogen phosphate, acetate, adipate, alginate, aspartate, benzoate, bisulfate, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, digluconate, glycerolphsphate, hemisulfate, heptanoate, hexanoate, formate, succinate, fumarate, maleate, ascorbate, isethionate, salicylate, methanesulfonate, mesitylenesulfonate, naphthylenesulfonate, nicotinate, 2-naphthalenesulfonate, oxalate, pamoate, pectinate, persulfate, 3-phenylproprionate, picrate, pivalate, propionate, trichloroacetate, trifluoroacetate, phosphate, glutamate, bicarbonate, paratoluenesulfonate, undecanoate, lactate, citrate, tartrate, gluconate, methanesulfonate, ethanedisulfonate, benzene sulfonate, and p-toluenesulfonate salts.

In light of the foregoing, any reference Compounds of the Disclosure appearing herein is intended to include the actual compound as well as pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, or solvates thereof.
[0253] The present disclosure also encompasses the preparation and use of solvates of Compounds of the Disclosure. Solvates typically do not significantly alter the physiological activity or toxicity of the compounds, and as such may function as pharmacological equivalents. The term "solvate" as used herein is a combination, physical association and / or solvation of a compound of the present disclosure with a solvent molecule such as, e.g. a disolvate, monosolvate or hemisolvate, where the ratio of solvent molecule to compound of the present disclosure is about 2:1, about 1:1 or about 1:2, respectively. This physical association involves varying degrees of ionic and covalent bonding, including hydrogen bonding. In certain instances, the solvate can be isolated, such as when one or more solvent molecules are incorporated into the crystal lattice of a crystalline solid. Thus, "solvate" encompasses both solution-phase and isolatable solvates. Compounds of the Disclosure can be present as solvated forms with a pharmaceutically acceptable solvent, such as water, methanol, and ethanol, and it is intended that the disclosure includes both solvated and unsolvated forms of Compoundsof the Disclosure. One type of solvate is a hydrate. A "hydrate" relates to a particular subgroup of solvates where the solvent molecule is water. Solvates typically can function as pharmacological equivalents. Preparation of solvates is known in the art. See, for example, M. Caira et al, J. Pharmaceut. Sci., 93(3):601-611 (2004), which describes the preparation of solvates of fluconazole with ethyl acetate and with water. Similar preparation of solvates, hemisolvates, hydrates, and the like are described by E.C. van Tonder et al., AAPS Pharm. Sci. Tech., 5(1):Article 12 (2004), and A.L. Bingham et al., Chem. Commun. 603-604 (2001). A typical, non-limiting, process of preparing a solvate would involve dissolving a Compound of the Disclosure in a desired solvent (organic, water, or a mixture thereof) at temperatures above 20°C to about 25°C, then cooling the solution at a rate sufficient to form crystals, and isolating the crystals by known methods, e.g., filtration. Analytical techniques such as infrared spectroscopy can be used to confirm the presence of the solvent in a crystal of the solvate.

For a general discussion of the availability, methods of production, mechanism of action, and clinical studies of anti-PD-1 antibodies, see U.S.2013 / 0309250, U.S.6,808,710, U.S.7,595,048, U.S.8,008,449, U.S.8,728,474, U.S. 8,779,105, U.S. 8,952,136, U.S. 8,900,587, U.S. 9,073,994, U.S. 9,084,776, and Naido et al., British Journal of Cancer 111:2214-19 (2014).
[0316] In another embodiment, the immune checkpoint inhibitor is a PD-L1 (also known as B7-H1 or CD274) inhibitor. Examples of PD-L1 inhibitors include antibodies that specifically bind to PD-L1. Particular anti-PD-L1 antibodies include, but are not limited to, avelumab, atezolizumab, durvalumab, and BMS-936559. For a general discussion ofthe availability, methods of production, mechanism of action, and clinical studies, see U.S. 8,217,149, U.S. 2014 / 0341917, U.S. 2013 / 0071403, WO 2015036499, and Naido et al., British Journal of Cancer 111:2214-19 (2014).
[0317] In another embodiment, the immune checkpoint inhibitor is a CTLA-4 inhibitor. CTLA-4, also known as cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4, is a protein receptor that downregulates the immune system. CTLA-4 is characterized as a "brake" that binds costimulatory molecules on antigen-presenting cells, which prevents interaction with CD28 on T cells and also generates an overtly inhibitory signal that constrains T cell activation. Examples of CTLA-4 inhibitors include antibodies that specifically bind to CTLA-4. Particular anti-CTLA-4 antibodies include, but are not limited to, ipilimumab and tremelimumab. For a general discussion of the availability, methods of production, mechanism of action, and clinical studies, see U.S. 6,984,720, U.S. 6,207,156, and Naido et al., British Journal of Cancer 111:2214-19 (2014).
[0318] In another embodiment, the immune checkpoint inhibitor is a LAG3 inhibitor. LAG3, Lymphocyte Activation Gene 3, is a negative co-simulatory receptor that modulates T cell homeostatis, proliferation, and activation. In addition, LAG3 has been reported to participate in regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppressive function. A large proportion of LAG3 molecules are retained in the cell close to the microtubule- organizing center, and only induced following antigen specific T cell activation. U.S.2014 / 0286935. Examples of LAG3 inhibitors include antibodies that specifically bind to LAG3. Particular anti-LAG3 antibodies include, but are not limited to, GSK2831781. For a general discussion of the availability, methods of production, mechanism of action, and studies, see, U.S. 2011 / 0150892, U.S. 2014 / 0093511, U.S.20150259420, and Huang et al., Immunity 21:503-13 (2004).
[0319] In another embodiment, the immune checkpoint inhibitor is a TIM3 inhibitor. TIM3, T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 3, is an immune checkpoint receptor that functions to limit the duration and magnitude of TH1 and TC1 T-cell responses. The TIM3 pathway is considered a target for anticancer immunotherapy due to its expression on dysfunctional CD8+T cells and Tregs, which are two reported immune cell populations that constitute immunosuppression in tumor tissue. Anderson, Cancer Immunology Research 2:393-98 (2014). Examples of TIM3 inhibitors include antibodies that specifically bind to TIM3. For a general discussion of the availability, methods of production, mechanism of action, and studies of TIM3 inhibitors, see U.S.20150225457,U.S. 20130022623, U.S. 8,522,156, Ngiow et al., Cancer Res 71: 6567-71 (2011), Ngiow, et al., Cancer Res 71:3540-51 (2011), and Anderson, Cancer Immunology Res 2:393-98 (2014).
[0320] In another embodiment, the immune checkpoint inhibitor is a cd47 inhibitor. See Unanue, E.R., PNAS 110:10886-87 (2013).
[0321] The term "antibody" is meant to include intact monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, multispecific antibodies formed from at least two intact antibodies, and antibody fragments, so long as they exhibit the desired biological activity. In another embodiment, "antibody" is meant to include soluble receptors that do not possess the Fc portion of the antibody. In one embodiment, the antibodies are humanized monoclonal antibodies and fragments thereof made by means of recombinant genetic engineering.
[0322] Another class of immune checkpoint inhibitors include polypeptides that bind to and block PD-1 receptors on T-cells without triggering inhibitor signal transduction. Such peptides include B7-DC polypeptides, B7-H1 polypeptides, B7-1 polypeptides and B7-2 polypeptides, and soluble fragments thereof, as disclosed in U.S. Pat.8,114,845.
[0323] Another class of immune checkpoint inhibitors include compounds with peptide moieties that inhibit PD-1 signaling. Examples of such compounds are disclosed in U.S. Pat.8,907,053.
[0324] Another class of immune checkpoint inhibitors include inhibitors of certain metabolic enzymes, such as indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase (IDO), which is expressed by infiltrating myeloid cells and tumor cells. The IDO enzyme inhibits immune responses by depleting amino acids that are necessary for anabolic functions in T cells or through the synthesis of particular natural ligands for cytosolic receptors that are able to alter lymphocyte functions. Pardoll, Nature Reviews. Cancer 12:252-64 (2012); Löb, Cancer Immunol Immunother 58:153-57 (2009). Particular IDO blocking agents include, but are not limited to, levo-1-methyl typtophan (L-1MT) and 1-methyl-tryptophan (1MT). Qian et al., Cancer Res 69:5498-504 (2009); and Löb et al., Cancer Immunol Immunother 58:153-7 (2009).
[0325] In one embodiment, the immune checkpoint inhibitor is nivolumab, pembrolizumab, pidilizumab, STI-A1110, avelumab, atezolizumab, durvalumab, STI-A1014, ipilimumab, tremelimumab, GSK2831781, BMS-936559 or MED14736
[0326] Other examples of second therapeutic agents, one or more of which a Compound of the Disclosure also can be combined, include glutamine antagonists. Suitableglutamine antagonists are disclosed, for example, in WO 2017 / 023774 and WO 2019 / 071110. Particular glutamine antagonists include, but are not limited to, isopropyl (S)-2-((S)-2-acetamido-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)propanamido)-6-diazo-5- oxohexanoate, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, isopropyl (S)-2-((S)-6- acetamido-2-((3S,5S,7S)-adamantane-1-carboxamido)hexanamido)-6-diazo-5- oxohexanoate, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, (S)-2-((S)-2-acetamido-3- (1H-indol-3-yl)propanamido)-6-diazo-5-oxohexanoic acid, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or 6-diazo-5-oxo-L-norleucine, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0439] The phrase "a disease or condition wherein inhibition and / or degradation of Nrf2 provides a benefit" and the like pertains to a disease or condition in which Nrf2 is important or necessary, e.g., for the onset, progress, expression of that disease or condition, or a disease or a condition which is known to be treated by a Nrf2 inhibitor or degrader. Examples of such diseases or conditions include, but are not limited to, cancer, neurodegenerative disease, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, or liver disease. Dodson et al., Annu Rev Pharmacol Toxicol 59:555-575 (2019). One of ordinary skill in the art is readily able to determine whether a compound treats a disease or condition mediated by an Nrf2 inhibitor or degrader for any particular cell type, for example, by assays that conveniently can be used to assess the activity of particular compounds.
[0440] The term "Nrf2 degrader" and the like refer to a heterobifunctional small molecule that degrades Nrf2 protein. Nrf2 degraders contain a first ligand that binds to Nrf2 protein, a second ligand for an E3 ligase system, and a chemical linker that tethers the first and second ligands. Representative Compounds of the Disclosure that degrade Nrf2 protein are disclosed in Tables 1-A and 1-B.
[0441] The term "Nrf2 inhibitor" and the like refer to a small molecule that inhibits Nrf2 protein. Representative Compounds of the Disclosure that inhibit Nrf2 protein are disclosed in Table 2.
[0442] The term "second therapeutic agent" refers to a therapeutic agent different from a Compound of the Disclosure and that is known to treat the disease or condition of interest. For example, when a cancer is the disease or condition of interest, the secondtherapeutic agent can be a known chemotherapeutic drug, like taxol, or radiation, for example.
[0443] The term "disease" or “condition” denotes disturbances and / or anomalies that as a rule are regarded as being pathological conditions or functions, and that can manifest themselves in the form of particular signs, symptoms, and / or malfunctions. Compounds of the Disclosure are inhibitors and / or degraders of Nrf2 and can be used in treating or preventing diseases and conditions wherein inhibition or degradation of Nrf2 provides a benefit.
[0444] As used herein, the terms "treat," "treating," "treatment," and the like refer to eliminating, reducing, or ameliorating a disease or condition, and / or symptoms associated therewith. Although not precluded, treating a disease or condition does not require that the disease, condition, or symptoms associated therewith be completely eliminated. The term "treat" and synonyms contemplate administering a therapeutically effective amount of a Compound of the Disclosure to a subject in need of such treatment. The treatment can be orientated symptomatically, for example, to suppress symptoms. It can be effected over a short period, be oriented over a medium term, or can be a long-term treatment, for example within the context of a maintenance therapy.
[0445] As used herein, the terms "prevent," "preventing," and "prevention" refer to a method of preventing the onset of a disease or condition and / or its attendant symptoms or barring a subject from acquiring a disease. As used herein, "prevent," "preventing," and "prevention" also include delaying the onset of a disease and / or its attendant symptoms and reducing a subject's risk of acquiring a disease. The terms "prevent," "preventing" and "prevention" may include "prophylactic treatment," which refers to reducing the probability of redeveloping a disease or condition, or of a recurrence of a previously- controlled disease or condition, in a subject who does not have, but is at risk of or is susceptible to, redeveloping a disease or condition or a recurrence of the disease or condition.
[0446] The term "therapeutically effective amount" or "effective dose" as used herein refers to an amount of the active ingredient(s) that is(are) sufficient, when administered by a method of the disclosure, to efficaciously deliver the active ingredient(s) for the treatment of condition or disease of interest to a subject in need thereof. In the case of a cancer or other proliferation disorder, the therapeutically effective amount of the agent may reduce (i.e., retard to some extent or stop) unwanted cellular proliferation; reducethe number of cancer cells; reduce the tumor size; inhibit (i.e., retard to some extent or stop) cancer cell infiltration into peripheral organs; inhibit (i.e., retard to some extent or stop) tumor metastasis; inhibit, to some extent, tumor growth; and / or relieve, to some extent, one or more of the symptoms associated with the cancer. To the extent the administered compound or composition prevents growth and / or kills existing cancer cells, it may be cytostatic and / or cytotoxic.
[0447] The term "container" means any receptacle and closure therefore suitable for storing, shipping, dispensing, and / or handling a pharmaceutical product.
[0448] The term "insert" means information accompanying a pharmaceutical product that provides a description of how to administer the product, along with the safety and efficacy data required to allow the physician, pharmacist, and patient to make an informed decision regarding use of the product. The package insert generally is regarded as the "label" for a pharmaceutical product.
[0449] "Concurrent administration," "administered in combination," "simultaneous administration," and similar phrases mean that two or more agents are administered concurrently to the subject being treated. By "concurrently," it is meant that each agent is administered either simultaneously or sequentially in any order at different points in time. However, if not administered simultaneously, it is meant that they are administered to a subject in a sequence and sufficiently close in time so as to provide the desired therapeutic effect and can act in concert. For example, a Compound of the Disclosure can be administered at the same time or sequentially in any order at different points in time as a second therapeutic agent. A Compound of the Disclosure and the second therapeutic agent can be administered separately, in any appropriate form and by any suitable route. When a Compound of the Disclosure and the second therapeutic agent are not administered concurrently, it is understood that they can be administered in any order to a subject in need thereof.

[0535] The term "enantiomeric excess" or "ee" refers to a measure for how much of one enantiomer is present compared to the other. For a mixture of R and S enantiomers, the percent enantiomeric excess is defined as │R - S│*100, where R and S are the respective mole or weight fractions of enantiomers in a mixture such that R + S = 1. With knowledge of the optical rotation of a chiral substance, the percent enantiomeric excess isdefined as ([^]obs / [^]max)*100, where [^]obs is the optical rotation of the mixture of enantiomers and [^]max is the optical rotation of the pure enantiomer. Determination of enantiomeric excess is possible using a variety of analytical techniques, including NMR spectroscopy, chiral column chromatography or optical polarimetry.
