Description

SUBSTITUTED 1H-PYRAZOLO[3,4-B]PYRIDINE COMPOUNDS AS AMYLIN RECEPTOR AGONISTS AND THEIR USE AS THERAPIES TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] Disclosed herein are non-peptide compounds which are amylin and / or calcitonin receptor agonists. These compounds may be useful as therapeutic agents, either as a monotherapy or in combination with another therapeutic agent, for preventing or treating a disease or condition through the modulation of the amylin and / or calcitonin receptors. Specifically, disclosed herein are compounds for treating diabetes, obesity, metabolic dysfunction associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and / or dyslipidemia. The compounds herein agonize the amylin and / or calcitonin receptor(s) and can therefore lower food intake, body weight, glucose, and / or triglycerides. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Amylin is a peptide hormone that is co-secreted with insulin from the pancreatic β- cells and is deficient in people with diabetes. It inhibits glucagon secretion, delays gastric emptying, and acts as a satiety agent. An amylin analog, pramlintide, is available to treat diabetic patients who use insulin because it lowers blood sugar levels. The elimination half- life of this medicine is less than an hour and it is used at mealtimes, so a patient needs multiple doses in one day to use this medicine in therapy.

[0003] Calcitonin is a hormone that is produced in the thyroid gland that plays a role in regulating levels of calcium and phosphate in the blood. Salmon calcitonin is available to treat conditions with high levels of calcium in the blood, such as hypercalcemia. Salmon calcitonin has a short half-life of less than two hours, so a patient needs to dose once a day or multiple times a day to use this peptide in therapy.

[0004] It has been shown that compounds which agonize the amylin and calcitonin receptors have positive effects such as lowering blood glucose levels and inducing weight loss (see, e.g., WO2016 / 034604, WO2015 / 071229 and WO2010 / 085700). These known amylin and calcitonin receptor agonists are peptides and the natural half-life of these agonists is short, so an extended time action is desirable. However, chemical modifications intended to extend activity time have also, thus far, shown a decrease in potency. In addition, agonists of the amylin and calcitonin receptors have stability challenges due to their tendency to fibrillate and the presence of a labile disulfide bond at neutral pH.

[0005] There is a need for alternative compounds that agonize the amylin and / or calcitonin receptors especially small molecule amylin and / or calcitonin receptor agonists. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0006] Disclosed herein is a compound of formula (I): , or a pharmaceutically acceptable R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6and R10are as defined herein.

[0007] In one embodiment, the compound of formula (I) is an amylin and / or calcitonin receptor agonist(s). In one embodiment, the compound of formula (I) can be used for preventing or treating a disease or condition through the modulation of the amylin and / or calcitonin receptor(s).

[0063] Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the disclosure pertains.

[0064] Reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” or “an” does not exclude the possibility that more than one element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be one and only one element. The indefinite article “a” or “an” thus usually means “at least one.”

[0065] The term “about” means within a meaningful range of a value or values such as, a stated amount, activity, concentration, length, molecular weight, pH, time frame, temperature or volume, for example, to account for a statistical or instrument measuring sensitivity range. Such a value or range can be within an order of magnitude typically within 20%, or more specifically within 10%, or even more specifically within 5%, of a given value or range. The allowable variation encompassed by “about” will depend upon the particular system under study, and can be readily appreciated by one of ordinary skill in the art.

[0066] The term “an effective amount” means an amount, concentration or dose of a compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof which, upon single or multiple dose administration to an individual in need thereof, provides a desired effect in such an individual under diagnosis or treatment. An effective amount is also one in which any toxic or detrimental effects of the compound are outweighed by the therapeutically beneficial effects. An effective amount can be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art through the use of known techniques and by observing results obtained under analogous circumstances. In determining the effective amount for an individual, a number of factors are considered including, but are not limited to, the size, age and general health of a subject; the specific disease or disorder involved; the degree of or involvement of or the severity of the disease or disorder; the response of the individual subject; the particular compound administered; the mode of administration; the bioavailability characteristics of the preparation administered; the dose regimen selected; the use of concomitant medication; and other relevant circumstances.

[0067] The term “treat,” “treating,” or “to treat” means attenuating, restraining, slowing, stopping or reversing the progression or severity of an existing condition, disease, disorder or symptom. Treating includes administering a compound herein or a composition comprising a compound herein to the subject to prevent the onset of symptoms or complications, alleviating the symptoms or complications, or eliminating the condition, disease, disorder or symptom. Treating includes administering a compound or a composition comprising a compound herein to the individual to result in, for example, a reduced HbA1c level or a weight loss to the subject.

[0068] The term “a pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to a derivative of the compound herein, where a compound herein is modified by making an acid or a base salt thereof. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and processes for preparing the same, are well known in the art (see, e.g., Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, L.V. Allen, Ed., 22ndEdition, Pharmaceutical Press, 2012). By way of examples, pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, mineral or organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines, or alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include the conventional non-toxic salts or the quaternary ammonium salts of a compound herein formed, for example, from non-toxic inorganic or organic acids. Such conventional nontoxic salts include those derived from inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, sulfamic, phosphoric, and nitric; and the salts prepared from organic acids such as acetic, propionic, succinic, glycolic, stearic, lactic, malic, tartaric, citric, ascorbic, pamoic, maleic, hydroxymaleic, phenylacetic, glutamic, benzoic, salicylic, sulfanilic, 2-acetoxybenzoic, fumaric, toluenesulfonic, methanesulfonic, ethane disulfonic, oxalic, and isethionic. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are those forms of a compound herein, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human beings and animals without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problem or complication, commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio. Pharmaceutically acceptable salt forms of a compound herein can be synthesized to contain a basic or acidic moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts are, for example, prepared by reacting the free acid or base forms of the compound with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or in an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two; generally, nonaqueous media like ether, EtOAc, EtOH, isopropanol, or ACN are preferred (see, e.g., Stahl et al., “Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection and Use” (Wiley-VCH 2nd ed. 2011)).

[0069] The term “a pharmaceutical composition” means a composition having an effective amount of a compound herein in combination with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, such as a binder, a carrier, a diluent, a lubricant, a pharmaceutical flow agent, and / or other pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.
