TRICYCLIC GUANIDINO COMPOUNDS AS PRMT5 INHIBITORSCROSS-REFERENCES TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims the benefit of priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) to U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 549,381 filed February 2, 2024, the contents of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety for all purposes.STATEMENT AS TO RIGHTS TO INVENTIONS MADE UNDERFEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
[0002] NOT APPLICABLEREFERENCE TO A "SEQUENCE LISTING," A TABLE, OR A COMPUTER PROGRAM LISTING APPENDIX SUBMITTED ON A COMPACT DISK
[0003] NOT APPLICABLEBACKGROUND
[0004] Cancer is a leading cause of death throughout the world. A limitation of prevailing therapeutic approaches, e.g. chemotherapy and immunotherapy is that their cytotoxic effects are not restricted to cancer cells and adverse side effects can occur within normal tissues.Consequently, novel strategies are needed to better target cancer cells.
[0005] Synthetic lethality arises when a combination of deficiencies in the expression or activity of two or more genes leads to cell death, whereas a deficiency in only one of these genes does not. The concept of synthetic lethality originates from studies in drosophila model systems in which a combination of mutations in two or more separate genes leads to cell death (in contrast to viability, which occurs when only one of the genes is mutated or deleted). More recently, a multitude of studies have explored maladaptive genetic changes in cancer cells that render them vulnerable to synthetic-lethality approaches. These tumor- specific genetic defects lead to the use of targeted agents that induce the death of tumor cells while sparing normal cells.
[0006] Protein arginine N-methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) is a methyl transferase that uses s- adenosyl methionine (SAM) as a methyl donor. PRMT5 catalyzes symmetricaldimethylarginine in a number of substrates including histone and non-histone proteins. The activity of PRMT5 has been associated with development and cancer as well as other biological functions.
[0007] Due to the role of PRMT5 in human diseases such as cancer, several inhibitors of PRMT5 have been developed. A number of these compounds target the SAM-PRMT5 complex either through competitive inhibition with SAM or the protein substrate. A challenge for these inhibitors is that the SAM-PRMT5 complex forms in both normal and cancer cells, making it difficult to selectively inhibit PRMT5 in only cancer cells.
[0008] Chromosome 9p21 encompasses, among others, CDKN2A (cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 2A), and homozygous deletion of 9p21 genomic locus is implicated in about 15% of all cancers. MTAP is located within the vicinity of the CDKN2A on chromosome 9p21 and is frequently co-deleted with CDKN2A deletion. The MTAP protein (methylthioadenosine phosphorylase) is an enzyme involved in polyamine metabolism, and the deletion of MTAP results in the accumulation of 5 ’methylthioadenosine (MTA) in the cell.
[0009] Seemingly due to structural similarities between SAM and MTA, PRMT5 is competitively inhibited by MTA. Cells with an MTAP deletion have increased levels of MTA, thereby partially inhibiting PRMT5. A new generation of PRMT5 inhibitors targeting the MTA-PRMT5 complex in MTAP deleted cancers are being developed. These MTA cooperative inhibitors selectively bind to the MTA-PRMT5 complex, effectively inhibiting PRMT5 in MTAP deleted cells, while leaving normal cells relatively unaffected. Inhibition of PRMT5 with MTA cooperative inhibitors leads to cell death and provides a new synthetic lethality approach for the treatment of MTAP deleted cancers.
[0010] Despite a mechanistic understanding and approach for the treatment of MTAP deleted cancers, there remains a need in the art to develop selective MTA cooperative PRMT5 inhibitors possessing appropriate selectivity and providing suitable therapeutic windows for treatment. The present disclosure addresses these needs and provides related advantages.SUMMARY

[0253] A number of compounds in Table 1, below, include one or more stereocenters.When the absolute stereochemistry of a stereocenter is known, is represented by a wedged solid ) and / or dashed ( •■ ' ) chemical bond(s) at the stereocenter without any markings or with the label of “(R)” or “(S)”. When the absolute stereochemistry of one or more stereocenters in an isolated compound is not known, the following labels are indicated at the stereocenter of the displayed structure: “&” (e.g., “&1”); or “or” (e.g., “orl”, “or2”, or “or3”). Each of these labels is further described below.
[0254] The chemical names in the present application are generated from the corresponding structures using software, for example, CHEMDRAW.
[0255] The label “&” in the structures in the present disclosure refers to both chiral centers being present in the mixture. When multiple stereocenters are labelled with “&1” the relative stereochemistry between them is determined. The term “rac” in the chemical names denotes a racemic mixture.
[0256] For example, Al is a racemic mixture of two isomers, wherein the relative stereochemistry between two centers labeled with “&1” is known, as shown below:
[0257] The label “or” in the structures refers to the specific chiral center being a single undefined isomer but absolute stereochemistry was not determined. When multiple stereocenters are labelled with different labels, the relative stereochemistry between them is not determined. For example, in a compound with stereocenters labelled as “orl” and “or2”, the relative stereochemistry between the differently labelled stereocenters is not determined. When multiple stereocenters are labelled with the same label, the relative stereochemistry between the same labelled stereocenters is determined but not the absolute stereochemistry. For example, for all stereocenters labelled “orl”, the relative stereochemistry between those stereocenters labelled “orl” is determined but not the absolute stereochemistry.
[0258] For example, A2 isomer 1 is a single isomer, wherein the relative stereochemistry between two chiral centers labeled with “orl” is known, but the absolute stereochemistry is not yet determined. A2 isomer can be either the S,S-isomer or R,R-isomer.For example, A41 isomer 1 is a single isomer, wherein relative stereochemistry between two chiral centers labeled with the same “orl” is known; relative stereochemistry between chiral centers labeled with “orl” and “or2” is not known; and absolute stereochemistry of all three chiral centers is not yet determined. A41 isomer 1 can be any one of four isomers, as shown below:
[0259] Unless otherwise indicated, Isomer 1 refers to the first eluting isomer and Isomer 2 refers to the second eluting isomer during chiral chromatographic separation. Similarly,Isomer 3 refers to a third eluting isomer, and Isomer 4 refers to a fourth eluting isomer during chiral chromatographic separation.Table 1: Exemplary Compounds

[0311] In one aspect, a cancer that lacks p53 (e.g., a p53 null cancer) is less sensitive to PRMT5 inhibition than a cancer that is p53 positive. Accordingly, a cancer that is PRMT5 responsive can be a p53 positive cancer. The term "p53 positive" refers to a cancer that does not lack p53 expression and / or activity. In some embodiments, one or more compounds described herein are useful for treating a p53 positive cancer. In some aspects, a greater amount of one or more compounds described herein may be required to treat a p53 negative cancer (e.g. , a p53 null cancer) than a p53 positive cancer.
[0312] In some aspects, the disclosure provides a method for identifying subjects having a cancer that is sensitive to treatment with a PRMT5 inhibitor. In some embodiments, the method comprises obtaining a sample from the subject; detecting the presence or absence of p53; and, identifying the subject as having a cancer that is sensitive to treatment with a PRMT5 inhibitor if p53 is present in the sample. Accordingly, in some embodiments, a subject having a p53 positive cancer is identified as a subject for treatment with a PRMT5 inhibitor. In some embodiments, the method further comprises administering to the subject a composition comprising a PRMT5 inhibitor.
[0313] In some embodiments, the disclosure relates to a method for identifying subjects having a cancer that is insensitive (or that has low sensitivity) to treatment with a PRMT5 inhibitor. In some embodiments, the method comprises obtaining a sample from the subject; detecting the presence or absence of p53 ; and, identifying the subject as having a cancer that is not sensitive (for example, a cancer that is less sensitive than a p53 positive cancer) to treatment with a PRMT5 inhibitor if p53 is absent from the sample (e.g., if the cancer is a p53 null cancer). In some embodiments, a p53 negative cancer (e.g., a p53 null cancer) is treated with a PRMT5 inhibitor, but a greater amount of PRMT5 inhibitor may be required to treat the p53 negative cancer than a p53 positive cancer. However, in some embodiments, a subject having a p53 negative cancer (e.g. , a p53 null cancer) is treated with a therapeutic agent that is not a PRMT5 inhibitor.
[0314] By "sample" is meant any biological sample derived from the subject, includes but is not limited to, cells, tissues samples, body fluids (including, but not limited to, mucus, blood, plasma, serum, urine, saliva, and semen), cancer cells, and cancer tissues. Detection of the presence or absence of p53 in the sample may be achieved by any suitable method for detecting p53 nucleic acid or protein, for example, nucleic acid sequencing (e.g., DNA or RNA sequencing), quantitative PCR, Western blotting, etc., or any combination of thereof.

[0398] A compound of Formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a subembodiment thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition as defined herein may be administered to a subject in an amount that is dependent upon, for example, the goal of administration (e.g., the degree of resolution desired); the age, weight, sex, and health and physical condition of the subject to which the formulation is being administered; the route of administration; and the nature of the disease, disorder, condition or symptom thereof. The dosing regimen may also take into consideration the existence, nature, and extent of any adverse effects associated with the agent(s) being administered.
[0399] An effective dose (ED) is the dose or amount of an agent that produces a therapeutic response or desired effect in some fraction of the subjects taking it. The “median effective dose” or ED50 of an agent is the dose or amount of an agent that produces a therapeuticresponse or desired effect in 50% of the population to which it is administered. Although the ED50is commonly used as a measure of reasonable expectance of an agent’s effect, it is not necessarily the dose that a clinician might deem appropriate taking into consideration all relevant factors. Thus, in some situations the effective amount is more than the calculated ED50, in other situations the effective amount is less than the calculated ED50, and in still other situations the effective amount is the same as the calculated ED50.ROUTES OF ADMINISTRATION
