Description
[0001]Attorney Docket No.71180-423314 (ASP-072WO) BICYCLIC HETEROCYCLE COMPOUNDS FOR TREATMENT OF HERPES VIRUSES 5 CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 639,269, filed April 26, 2024, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. BACKGROUND 10 Human herpes viruses (Herpesviridae) are responsible for causing a wide variety of diseases in humans. Infection with herpes viruses can occur early in life and by adulthood over 95% of the population is infected by at least one herpes virus. These viruses establish a persistent life-long infection through viral latency in neuronal, lymphoid, or myeloid cells. Recurrent episodes of herpes virus disease can be triggered by numerous stimuli, including 15 concurrent viral infections, stress, fatigue, allergies, pregnancy, sunlight, or fever. Herpes virus infection in immune competent individuals generally causes mild self-limiting disease, such as: oral (HSV- 1), and genital (HSV-2) ulcers, chicken pox (VZV), flu-like syndrome (CMV), and mononucleosis (EBV). In immunocompromised individuals however, primary infection with, or reactivation of an existing herpes virus infection is a major cause of disease 20 and death. Key at risk immunocompromised populations include patients undergoing solid organ or stem cell transplants, individuals with HIV / AIDS, and ICU patients. Herpesviridae comprise a diverse family of double-stranded DNA viruses that are classified into three subfamilies (i.e., a, ' and y) based upon biological characteristics such as cell tropism, diseases caused, viral life-cycle, and site of viral persistence and latency. The 25 family consists of eight members: Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 and 2 (HSV-1, HSV-2), Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), Cytomegalovirus (CMV), and human herpes viruses 6-8 (HHV6-8). α-herpes viruses include herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2), and varicella-zoster virus (VZV). HSV-1 causes orofacial lesions, commonly known as fever 30 blisters or cold sores. Approximately 30% of the United States population suffers from recurrent episodes of HSV-l. HSV-2, which is less common than HSV-1, causes genital 1 Attorney Docket No.71180-423314 (ASP-072WO) lesions. Primary infection with VZV causes varicella, commonly known as chicken pox. Reactivation of latent VZV manifests as herpes zoster or shingles. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a prototypical herpes virus. Seroprevalance to CMV in the adult population is approximately 60%, but certain endemic areas of the world have rates closer to I00%. 5 CMV represents the leading viral cause of morbidity and mortality in at-risk immunocompromised patients. EBV, a γ-herpes virus, causes infectious mononucleosis and is responsible for lymphoid cancers such as Burkitt’ s and Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Presently, there is no cure for herpes. Medicines have been developed that can prevent or shorten outbreaks, but there is a need for improved therapies for treating 10 herpes virus infection and inhibiting viral replication. The current standard of care for immunocompromised patients at risk for herpes virus disease is pre-emptive treatment with high-dose nucleoside / nucleotide analog drugs such as acyclovir, (val)ganciclovir, and cidofovir, all of which target the viral DNA polymerase. In general, current treatments are virus specific (not broad spectrum), and in the case of (val)ganciclovir 15 and cidofovir cannot be administered prophylactically due to dose-related toxicities including bone marrow suppression and renal toxicity. Although efficacious in many settings, the current nucleos(t)ide drugs are also limited by drug-resistant viral variants and existing cross-resistant variants which may lead to treatment failure. WO2021127071 relates to novel bicyclic heterocycle compounds of Formula (I) and 20 pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, wherein A, X, Y, Z, R1 R5, R6, and R7 are as defined therein. The invention also relates to compositions comprising at least one bicyclic heterocycle compound, and methods of using the bicyclic heterocycle compounds for treating or preventing a herpesvirus infection in a patient. There is still a need for additional antiviral compounds for the treatment and prophylaxis 25 of viral infections, particularly herpes infections, that have an improved profile with respect to safety, potency, selectivity and / or bioavailability. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In one aspect, the present disclosure provides a compound of Formula I 2 Attorney Docket No.71180-423314 (ASP-072WO) Formula I or a pharmaceuti ables are as described herein. In another aspect, the disclosure provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically 5 acceptable excipient. In another aspect, the disclosure provides a method of treating a herpes virus infection in a subject in need thereof, comprising: administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In another aspect, the disclosure provides a method of treating a herpes virus infection in 10 a subject in need thereof, comprising: administering to the subject a pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

WO2020053654 to Novartis discloses pyridopyrazinedione compounds for treating herpes virus infections. WO2021061898 and WO2023154905 to Novartis-Gilead disclose pyrazolopyridinone compounds for treating herpes virus infections. WO2021126902 to Merck discloses amido-substituted pyridyl compounds for treating herpes virus infections. WO2022132679 to Merck disclose amido-substituted pyridyl compounds of Formula I 10 a I for treating a herpes virus infection, p y O-(5 or 6-membered monocyclic heterocycloalkyl) or -O-(9 or 10-membered bicyclic heterocycloalkyl), as defined therein. WO2022146755 to Merck disclose amido-substituted pyridyl compounds of Formula I Formula I 15 for treating a herpes virus infection, wherein R1is -O-(C1-C6alkyl) or an optionally substituted 5 to 7- membered monocyclic heterocycloalkyl, -O-(5 to 7-membered monocyclic heterocycloalkyl), 6 to 10- membered bicyclic heterocycloalkyl or -O-(6 to 10-membered bicyclic heterocycloalkyls), as defined therein. WO2021127071 to Merck discloses bicyclic heterocycle compounds of Formula I: 4 Attorney Docket No.71180-423314 (ASP-072WO) Formula I for treating a virus in , 7-membered monocyclic heterocycloalkyl or 9 or 10-membered bicyclic heterocycloalkyl, as defined therein, and the linker A is a bond or -O-. 5 WO2022132679, WO2022146755 and WO2021127071 all disclose similar R1groups that are either directly attached to the core or attached through an -O- linker. There is no teaching or suggestion for other possible linkers. Starting with Example 37 from WO2021127071, Applicants made and tested several analogs, according to procedures described herein, with different one-atom replacement linkers to the R1substituent. CMV EC50 and human liver microsome stability assay results are shown below in 10 TABLE A (data was acquired using assays described herein). O Cl N N O TABLE A: Comparison Data fo r Analogs of Example 37 of WO2021127071 with Different Linkers Compound Linker X CMV EC50(nM) hLMs remaining at 45 Of the compounds tested, only Reference Compound A with a -S- linker and Reference 15 Compound E with a -NH- linker maintained biological activity in the CMV assay. However, Reference 5 Attorney Docket No.71180-423314 (ASP-072WO) compound A was unstable in the human liver microsome stability assay, with only 10% remaining after 45 minutes, the remainder possibly converted to the inactive -SO- and -SO2- analogs. In contrast, Reference Compound E not only matched the CMV activity of Example 37 of WO2021127071 but was more stable in the human liver microsome stability assay, while the -N(CH3)- analog was inactive. Thus, 5 Applicants have surprisingly discovered that only -NH- offers a viable alternative to the known -O- linker. While WO2021127071 does not exemplify any compounds with a thiazole moiety as does the present application, Applicants have observed the same trend for CMV biological activity for thiazole analogs with different linkers, as shown in TABLE B. 10 TABLE B: Comparison Data for g p u v ion with Different Linkers Compound Linker X CMV EC50 (nM) E l 55 f th P t I ti NH 32 While investigating the structure activity relationships for the presently claimed genus, Applicants further discovered that potential clinical compounds preferably demonstrate not only 15 substantial biological activity in a herpes virus assay (e.g., a CMV assay) but are also chemically and metabolically stable with minimal hERG liability. TABLE C shows comparison data for three compounds from WO2021127071, all having an -O- linker, versus Example 55 of the presentation invention having a -NH-linker. 6 Attorney Docket No.71180-423314 (ASP-072WO) of WO2021127071 of WO2021127071 of WO2021127071 5 TABLE B: Comparison Data for Three Compounds of WO2021127071 versus Example 55 of the Present Invention Compound CMV EC50 hERG h / r / c / d LMs (nM) inhibition at remaining at 45 Given the data provided above in TABLE A and TABLE B, it is surprising that Example 55 of the present invention, with its -NH- linker, has comparable biological activity in the CMV assay with 10 these three compounds from WO2021127071, all having an -O- linker. More surprisingly, compared to these three compounds, Example 55 of the present invention has significantly less hERG liability and is significantly more metabolically stable in liver microsomes across the species tested.

The compounds of the disclosure may contain one or more chiral centers and, therefore, exist as stereoisomers. The term “stereoisomers” when used herein consist of all enantiomers or diastereomers. These compounds may be designated by the symbols “(+),” “(-),” “R” or “S,” 10 depending on the configuration of substituents around the stereogenic carbon atom, but the skilled artisan will recognize that a structure may denote a chiral center implicitly. The present disclosure encompasses various stereoisomers of these compounds and mixtures thereof. Mixtures of enantiomers or diastereomers may be designated “(±)” in nomenclature, but the skilled artisan will recognize that a structure may denote a chiral center implicitly. 15 The compounds of the disclosure may contain one or more double bonds and, therefore, exist as geometric isomers resulting from the arrangement of substituents around a carbon- carbon double bond. The symbol denotes a bond that may be a single, double or triple bond as described herein. Substituents around a carbon-carbon double bond are designated as being in the “Z” or “E” configuration wherein the terms “Z” and “E” are used in accordance with IUPAC 20 standards. Unless otherwise specified, structures depicting double bonds encompass both the “E” and “Z” isomers. Substituents around a carbon-carbon double bond alternatively can be referred to as “cis” or “trans,” where “cis” represents substituents on the same side of the double bond and “trans” represents substituents on opposite sides of the double bond. Compounds of the disclosure may contain a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring and 25 therefore, exist as geometric isomers resulting from the arrangement of substituents around the ring. The arrangement of substituents around a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring are designated as being in the “Z” or “E” configuration wherein the terms “Z” and “E” are used in accordance with IUPAC standards. Unless otherwise specified, structures depicting carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings encompass both “Z” and “E” isomers. Substituents around a carbocyclic or 30 heterocyclic ring may also be referred to as “cis” or “trans”, where the term “cis” represents substituents on the same side of the plane of the ring and the term “trans” represents substituents 12 Attorney Docket No.71180-423314 (ASP-072WO) on opposite sides of the plane of the ring. Mixtures of compounds wherein the substituents are disposed on both the same and opposite sides of plane of the ring are designated “cis / trans.” Individual enantiomers and diastereomers of compounds of the present disclosure can be prepared synthetically from commercially available starting materials that contain asymmetric or 5 stereogenic centers, or by preparation of racemic mixtures followed by resolution methods well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. These methods of resolution are exemplified by (1) attachment of a mixture of enantiomers to a chiral auxiliary, separation of the resulting mixture of diastereomers by recrystallization or chromatography and liberation of the optically pure product from the auxiliary, (2) salt formation employing an optically active resolving agent, (3) 10 direct separation of the mixture of optical enantiomers on chiral liquid chromatographic columns or (4) kinetic resolution using stereoselective chemical or enzymatic reagents. Racemic mixtures can also be resolved into their component enantiomers by well-known methods, such as chiral- phase liquid chromatography or crystallizing the compound in a chiral solvent. Stereoselective syntheses, a chemical or enzymatic reaction in which a single reactant forms an unequal mixture15 of stereoisomers during the creation of a new stereocenter or during the transformation of a pre- existing one, are well known in the art. Stereoselective syntheses encompass both enantiomeric and diastereoselective transformations and may involve the use of chiral auxiliaries. For example, see Carreira and Kvaerno, Classics in Stereoselective Synthesis, Wiley-VCH: Weinheim, 2009. 20 All isomeric forms (especially all regio- and stereoisomeric forms, e.g. all chiral, enantiomeric, diastereomeric, racemic forms, tautomeric and all geometric isomeric forms, as well as atropisomers, (including interconverting atropisomerism) of a compound of the present description are intended within this invention, unless the specific isomer form is specifically indicated. In one embodiment, the isomer which is pharmacologically most effective and most 25 free from side effects is preferred. The compounds disclosed herein can exist in solvated as well as unsolvated forms with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, and the like, and it is intended that the disclosure embrace both solvated and unsolvated forms. In one embodiment, the compound is amorphous. In one embodiment, the compound is a single polymorph. In another embodiment, 30 the compound is a mixture of polymorphs. In another embodiment, the compound is in a crystalline form. 13 Attorney Docket No.71180-423314 (ASP-072WO) The disclosure also embraces isotopically labeled compounds of the disclosure which are identical to those recited herein, except that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds of the disclosure include 5 isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, fluorine and chlorine, such as2H,3H,13C,14C,15N,18O,17O,31P,32P,35S,18F, and36Cl, respectively. For example, a compound of the disclosure may have one or more H atom replaced with deuterium. Certain isotopically-labeled disclosed compounds (e.g., those labeled with3H and14C) are useful in compound and / or substrate tissue distribution assays. Tritiated (i.e.,3H) and carbon- 10 14 (i.e.,14C) isotopes are particularly preferred for their ease of preparation and detectability. Further, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium (i.e.,2H) may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability (e.g., increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements) and hence may be preferred in some circumstances. Isotopically labeled compounds of the disclosure can generally be prepared by following procedures 15 analogous to those disclosed in the examples herein by substituting an isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent. The term “prodrug” refers to compounds that are transformed in vivo to yield a disclosed compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, hydrate or solvate of the compound.

Cell culture and cell preparation for manual patch: 20 A CHO cell line stably transfected with hERG cDNA and expressing hERG channels of P21 was used for the study. Cells were cultured in medium (from Invitrogen) containing: • Ham’s F12 • 10 % (v / v) FBS • 100 μg / ml Hygromycin B 25 • 100 μg / ml Geneticin Flasks or dishes of CHO hERG cells were maintained in the above medium and incubated at 37 °C in a humidified incubator with 5% CO2.24 to 48 hours prior to electrophysiological recordings, the cells were plated on glass cover slips placed in culture dishes and maintained under the same incubation 190 Attorney Docket No.71180-423314 (ASP-072WO) and media conditions. The number of cells being plated on the cover slip should reach a confluence rate at which majority of the cells are single. Solutions: For the electrophysiological recordings the following solutions were used. 5 Table 1. Composition of internal and external solutions used in hERG patch clamp studies Reagent External Solution (mM) Internal Solution (mM) CaCl22 5374 Chemicals and reagents Catalog No. MW Supplier Manual whole cell patch and recording procedures: 191 Attorney Docket No.71180-423314 (ASP-072WO) HEKA EPC 10 USB patch clamp amplifier (from HEKA Elektronik, Germany) was used in the whole cell recording. A cover slip with plenty of single CHO hERG cells on the surface was removed and placed into a continuously perfused (approximately 1 ml / minute) recording chamber mounted on an inverted microscope. HERG channel currents were recorded from single cells using standard whole cell 5 recording techniques. The cells were voltage clamped at a holding potential of -80 mV. The hERG current was activated by depolarizing at +20 mV for 5 sec, after which the current was taken back to -50 mV for 5 sec to remove the inactivation and observe the deactivating tail current. The K+ tail current through HERG channels observed during this step was allowed to stabilize under continuous bath perfusion. Cells were then superfused with drug until steady state block was achieved. Steady state was considered 10 reached when three consecutive super-imposable current records were collected. At this point, cells were once again superfused with extracellular solution until the current amplitude returned to values close to those measured before application of drug. One or more compounds or concentrations of drugs were tested on each cell with washout in between each drug application. Cisapride was used in the experiments to ensure the normal response and good quality of the hERG cells. 15 Compound handling and dilutions: Single dose (10 µM) was chosen to evaluate compound effect on hERG channel. Before manual patch clamp test, compounds were made into 10 mM DMSO stock, diluted in extracellular solution (with 2% FBS) to the final test concentration.5-10 min of sonication and vortex were routinely applied to the solutions to assist the complete dissolution of compound. Final DMSO concentration was 0.1%. 20 Data Analysis: Data were analyzed using Assay Software provided by Patchmaster and Graphpad Prism 10.0. Quality Control: Data included in the report originated from experiments which satisfied all of the following criteria: 25 Recording parameters: • membrane resistance Rm > 500 MΩ • access resistance (Ra) < 10 MΩ 192 Attorney Docket No.71180-423314 (ASP-072WO) • tail current amplitude > 200 pA • rundown < 2 % per minute • leak current < 200 pA or 10% of the tail current amplitude in 90% of the recording time References: 5 ➢ Mitcheson JS, et al (2000) A structural basis for drug-induced long QT syndrome.
