Description

MOLECULAR GLUES AND USES THEREOF RELATEDAPPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Provisonal Application No. 63 / 555,527, filed February 20, 2024, U.S. Provisonal Application No. 63 / 706,906, filed October 14, 2024, and U.S. Provisonal Application No. 63 / 723,200, filed November 21, 2024, the entire contents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference. BACKGROUND

[0002] Targeted protein degradation is an attractive area for the development of therapeutics to treat diseases driven by the accumulation or inappropriate expression of proteins that remodel cellular physiology. The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is a major pathway for regulating cellular protein abundance that involves tagging target proteins with ubiquitin for recognition and degradation by the proteasome.

[0003] Synthetic small molecules which enhance the ubiquitination of a target protein by inducing and / or stabilizing the interaction between the target protein and an E3 ligase have been reported and are referred to as “molecular glues”. See e.g., Guoqiang Dong et al., J. Med. Chem. 2021, 64, 15, 10606–10620. Molecular glues are distinct from PROTACS in that PROTACS are bifunctional molecules, i.e., the molecules have one moiety that selectively binds a target protein and another moiety that recruits an E3 ubiquitin ligase, each moiety being separated from each other on the molecule by a linker. Molecular glues, on the other hand, are small chemical entities made up of a single molecule. While both PROTACS and molecular glues are effective, molecular glues are inherently more advantageous than PROTACs because they resemble traditional small molecule drug design principles. Being a smaller molecule, a molecular glue intrinsically poses qualities such as better solubility and membrane permeability, based on basic druggability principles.

[0004] Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) is a transcription factor that regulates cellular defense against oxidative stress and toxicity. In nonpathological circumstances, the protein level of NRF2 is tightly regulated by the redox-sensitive E3 ligase KEAP1 and is transiently stabilized to promote cellular antioxidant mechanisms. In multiple cancers, NRF2 is ectopically stabilized by mutations in KEAP1 or NRF2 itself that prevent recognition by KEAP1 even in the absence of oxidative stress. Other mechanisms resulting in high expression of NRF2 protein can include transcriptional downregulation (as by promoter methylation) of KEAP1 and increased transcription of the NRF2 gene locus. Continuous highexpression of NRF2 results in activation of multiple transcriptional networks that support tumor progression, metastasis, and resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. Inhibition of NRF2 function is thus a relevant therapeutic strategy for cancer and other diseases in which NRF2 protein levels are high. As a transcription factor with no enzymatic activity and no validated binary ligands for bifunctional degraders, NRF2 is strongly suited for degradation using a molecular glue to recruit a non-KEAP1 E3 ligase.

[0005] β-catenin is a transcriptional coregulator that plays important roles in embryonic patterning and tissue homeostasis. Protein levels of transcriptionally active β-catenin are tightly regulated by the multi-protein destruction complex, which promotes β-catenin phosphorylation and recruits β-TRCP for ubiquitination and degradation. In the majority of colorectal cancers, the destruction complex is dysfunctional, resulting in inadequate phosphorylation and accumulation of β-catenin. Sustained accumulation of active β-catenin results in the activation of pro-tumorigenic transcriptional programs and is a critical driver of colorectal cancers. Oncogenesis via accumulated β-catenin is also observed in other cancers via mutation of the β-TRCP binding site. Restoration of β-TRCP recognition and degradation of β-catenin via molecular glue degrader thus represents an attractive therapeutic option for multiple cancers.

[0006] Therefore, molecular glues targeting NRF2 and / or β-catenin represent an attractive and unique approach for targeting conditions associated with increased protein levels of either of these oncogenic drivers. SUMMARY

[0038] Recitation of ranges of values herein are intended to serve as a shorthand method of referring individually to each separate value falling within the range, unless otherwise indicated herein, and each separate value is incorporated into the specification as if it were individually recited herein. The use of any and all examples, or exemplary language (e.g., “such as”) provided herein, is intended to better illustrate the disclosure and is not a limitation on the scope of the disclosure unless otherwise claimed. No language in the specification should be construed as indicating any non-claimed element as essential to the practice of the disclosure.

[0039] Compounds described herein can comprise one or more asymmetric centers, and thus can exist in various stereoisomeric forms, e.g., enantiomers and / or diastereomers. For example, the compounds described herein can be in the form of an individual enantiomer, diastereomer or geometric isomer, or can be in the form of a mixture of stereoisomers, including racemic mixtures and mixtures enriched in one or more stereoisomer. Isomers can be isolated from mixtures by methods known to those skilled in the art, including supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), chiral high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and the formation and crystallization of chiral salts; or preferred isomers can be prepared by asymmetric syntheses. See, for example, Jacques et al., Enantiomers, Racemates and Resolutions (Wiley Interscience, New York, 1981); Wilen et al., Tetrahedron 33:2725 (1977); Eliel, E.L. Stereochemistry of Carbon Compounds (McGraw-Hill, NY, 1962); and Wilen, S.H. Tables of Resolving Agents and Optical Resolutions p. 268 (E.L. Eliel, Ed., Univ. of Notre Dame Press, Notre Dame, IN 1972).

[0040] Exemplary compounds of the disclosure including a chiral center may be depicted herein as having particular stereochemistries, but for which absolute stereochemistry has not been obtained. Absolute configurations can be obtained using methods known in the art.

[0041] As used herein, the term “stereoisomers” refers to compounds which have identical chemical constitution and connectivity, but differ with regard to the arrangement of the atoms or groups in space, e.g., enantiomers or diastereomers.

[0042] When the stereochemical configuration at a chiral center in a compound having one or more chiral centers is depicted by its chemical name (e.g., where the configuration is indicated in the chemical name by “R” or “S”) or structure (e.g., the configuration is indicated by dashed or wedge bonds), the enrichment of the indicated configuration relative to the opposite configuration is greater than 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 99% or 99.9%. “Enrichment of the indicated configuration relative to the opposite configuration” is a mole percent and is determined by dividing the number of compounds with the indicated stereochemical configuration at the chiral center(s) by the total number of all of the compounds with the same or opposite stereochemical configuration in a mixture.

[0043] When a disclosed compound is named or depicted by structure without indicating stereochemistry, it is understood that the name or the structure encompasses one of the possible stereoisomers or geometric isomers free of the others, or a mixture of the encompassed stereoisomers or geometric isomers.

[0044] When the compounds described herein contain olefinic double bonds or other centers of geometric asymmetry, and unless specified otherwise, it is intended that they include both E and Z geometric isomers.

[0045] In some embodiments, the compounds described herein are isotopically enriched compound, e.g., an isotopologue. The term “isotopically enriched” refers to an atom having an isotopic composition other than the naturally abundant isotopic composition of that atom. “Isotopically enriched” may also refer to a compound containing at least one atom having an isotopic composition other than the natural isotopic composition of that atom. In an isotopologue, “isotopic enrichment” refers to the percentage of incorporation of an amount of a specific isotope of a given atom in a molecule in the place of that atom’s natural isotopic composition. For example, deuterium enrichment of 1% at a given position means that 1% of the molecules in a given sample contain deuterium at the specified position. Because the naturally occurring distribution of deuterium is about 0.0156%, deuterium enrichment at any position in a compound synthesized using non-enriched starting materials is about 0.0156%.In one embodiment, one or more hydrogen atoms on a described compound may be replaced by deuterium.

[0046] The terms “subject” and “patient” may be used interchangeably, and means a mammal in need of treatment, e.g., companion animals (e.g., dogs, cats, and the like), farm animals (e.g., cows, pigs, horses, sheep, goats and the like) and laboratory animals (e.g., rats, mice, guinea pigs and the like). Typically, the subject is a human in need of treatment.

[0047] The term “inhibit,” “inhibition” or “inhibiting” includes a decrease in the baseline activity of a biological activity or process.

[0048] As used herein, the terms “treatment,” “treat,” and “treating” refer to reversing, alleviating, delaying the onset of, or inhibiting the progress of a disease or disorder, or one or more symptoms thereof, as described herein. In some aspects, treatment may be administered after one or more symptoms have developed, i.e., therapeutic treatment. In other aspects, treatment may be administered in the absence of symptoms. For example, treatment may be administered to a susceptible individual prior to the onset of symptoms (e.g., in light of a history of symptoms and / or in light of exposure to a particular organism, or other susceptibility factors), i.e., prophylactic treatment. Treatment may also be continued after symptoms have resolved, for example to delay their recurrence.

[0049] The term “effective amount” or “therapeutically effective amount” refers to an amount of a compound described herein that is sufficient to achieve the desired therapeutic effect (such as treatment of a condition recited herein) under the conditions of administration. 3. Compounds
