Compounds as vav1 degraders and uses thereof

[0001] Priority information

[0002] The present disclosure claims priority to and the benefit of Chinese Patent Application No. 202411162599.9, filed August 22, 2024, Chinese Patent Application No. 202411547472.9, filed October 31, 2024, and Chinese Patent Application No. 2025110558012, filed July 29, 2025, to the Chinese National Intellectual Property Office, and incorporates by reference the entire contents of each of the foregoing applications herein. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0003] The present application provides a class of compounds as VAV1 degraders and uses thereof. Specifically provided are compounds represented by formula (II), tautomers, stereoisomers, pharmaceutically acceptable salts or prodrugs thereof. The compounds provided by the present application have good drug efficacy and can be prepared for drugs for treating or preventing VAV1 related diseases. BACKGROUND

[0004] Drug-induced targeted protein degradation (TPD) technology is an emerging drug treatment strategy. This technology takes advantage of two major protein degradation systems (ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) and lysosomal degradation system) naturally present in the human body to destroy and degrade key proteins related to diseases, thereby achieving the effect of treating diseases. Currently, molecular glue, proteolytic targeting chimera, lysosome targeting chimera, autophagy targeting chimera, autophagy linking compound, and other technologies have been developed. Among them, multiple drugs based on the principle of molecular glue have been approved for marketing, and have achieved good efficacy. The success of molecular glue in clinical practice and its future potential have prompted pharmaceutical companies to pay increasing attention to the development of related drugs.

[0005] VAV family proteins, including VAV1, VAV2, and VAV3, are Rho family GTPase guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs). VAV1 is a 95-kDa protein that is a positive regulator of T cell receptor (TCR) and B cell receptor (BCR) signaling. VAV1 is mainly expressed in hematopoietic cells of the human body, including T cells, B cells, monocytes, natural killer (NK) cells, granulocytes, and dendritic cells, while its family members VAV2 and VAV3 are more widely expressed. VAV1 is rapidly phosphorylated upon a variety of stimuli, such as stimulation of T cell receptors, B cell receptors, and various cytokine receptors. In hematopoietic-derived cells, such as T cells, B cells, natural killer cells, and osteoclasts, VAV1 regulates a variety of cellular functions and signaling pathways by activating certain GTPases. VAV1-mediated functions include gene transcription, development and activation of immune cells such as T cells and B cells.

[0006] Genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screening confirmed that VAV1 is an important positive regulator of T cell activation / function, and VAV1 promotes the proliferation of cells sensitive to TCR signaling pathway, such as human Jurkat T cells and primary human CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. In addition, VAV1 knockout mouse data show that VAV1 plays a key role in T / B lymphocyte function and antigen receptor signaling, especially in T cells. More importantly, VAV1 -deficient mouse thymocytes and splenic T cells show multiple defects in TCR-mediated signaling, such as impaired calcium (Ca 2+ ) mobilization and transcription factor activation. However, T cells with VAV1 GEF activity loss (VAV1 L334A / K335A) exhibit normal TCR-mediated Ca 2+ flux and nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) activation. It is shown that both GEF activity and scaffold function of VAV1 play an important role in the TCR signaling pathway.

[0007] Genetic analysis found that rodents carrying VAV1 R63W variation showed lower susceptibility in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) and palmitoyl-induced arthritis compared with wild type (WT). In the mouse model of antigen (methylated bovine serum albumin)-induced arthritis (AIA), VAV1 knockout mice showed less disease symptoms (such as inflammation, synovial thickening and cartilage degradation), reduced T cell proliferation and reduced joint infiltration of CD4+ T cells, neutrophils and macrophages than wild type mice. This again indicates that VAV1 plays an important role in T cell differentiation and function. Therefore, VAV1 can be a therapeutic target for immune-mediated diseases. SUMMARY

[0186] Terms and Definitions

[0187] Unless otherwise defined, all terms and definitions used in the present application, including the specification and claims, are as follows.

[0188] As will be understood by those skilled in the art, according to the convention used in the art, in the structural formulae of the present application, is used to depict a chemical bond, which is the point of attachment of a moiety or substituent to the core structure or backbone structure.

[0189] Unless otherwise specified, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable" in reference to those compounds, materials, compositions, and / or dosage forms which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, 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.

[0190] Unless otherwise specified, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a non-toxic acid or base salt of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, including salts of inorganic acids and bases, salts of organic acids and bases.

[0191] In addition to pharmaceutically acceptable salts, other salts are also contemplated. They can serve as intermediates in the purification of the compounds or in the preparation of other pharmaceutically acceptable salts, or they can be useful in the identification, characterization, or purification of the compounds of the present application.

[0192] Unless otherwise specified, the term "pharmaceutical composition" means one or more of the compounds described herein or a physiologically / pharmaceutically acceptable salt or prodrug thereof in combination with a further chemical component, such as a physiologically / pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and excipient. The purpose of a pharmaceutical composition is to facilitate administration of the compound to an organism.

[0193] Unless otherwise specified, the term "excipient" refers to a pharmaceutically acceptable inert ingredient. Examples of classes of excipients include, but are not limited to, binders, disintegrants, lubricants, glidants, stabilizers, fillers, and diluents. Excipients can enhance the handling properties of a pharmaceutical formulation, i.e., make the formulation more amenable to direct compression by increasing flow and / or cohesion.

[0194] Unless otherwise specified, the term "prodrug" refers to compounds that can be converted under physiological conditions or by solvolysis to a compound of the present application that is biologically or pharmaceutically active. Prodrugs of the present application are prepared by modifying functional groups in such a way that their solubility characteristics are altered but the biologically or pharmaceutically useful properties are retained. The prodrugs of the present application are prepared in accordance with conventional methods and either are known or will be known by one skilled in the art. Prodrugs include compounds wherein a hydroxy or amino group in a compound of the present application is linked to any group that can be cleaved in vivo to form the free hydroxyl or amino group. Prodrugs of the present application are cleaved when a prodrug of the present application is administered to a mammalian subject to form the free hydroxyl or amino group.

[0195] Unless otherwise specified, the term "stereoisomer" refers to isomers that have the same molecular formula but different structures resulting from the different spatial arrangement of atoms. Stereoisomers include enantiomers, diastereomers, and conformational isomers.

[0196] Depending on the choice of starting materials and methods, the compounds of the application can be present in the form of one or more of possible isomers, such as geometric or stereoisomers, for example as pure optical isomers, or as mixtures of different isomers, such as racemates, diastereomeric mixtures, and enantiomeric mixtures. When describing compounds having optical activity, the prefixes D and L or R and S are used to denote the absolute configuration of the molecule with respect to a single reference plane. The prefixes D and L or (+) and (-) are used to designate the plane polarized light that the compound will cause to rotate. (-) or L means that the compound is levorotatory. A compound of the prefix (+) or D is dextrorotatory. Except for these stereoisomers, these compounds are identical and indistinguishable from one another. Specific stereoisomers are also referred to as enantiomers, and mixtures of such isomers are often referred to as enantiomeric mixtures. A 50:50 mixture of enantiomers is referred to as a racemic mixture or racemate, and such mixtures can occur where there has been no stereoselection or stereospecificity in a chemical reaction or process. Many geometric isomers of olefins, C=N double bonds, and the like can also exist; all such stable isomers are contemplated in the present application. When the compounds described herein contain olefinic double bonds, unless otherwise specified, both E and Z geometric isomers are encompassed. If the compound contains a disubstituted cycloalkyl group, the substituents can be in the cis- or trans- (or, alternatively, the Z- or E-) configuration.

[0197] When bonds to a chiral carbon in the formulas of the application are drawn in a straight line, it is understood that both the (R) and (S) configurations of the chiral carbon, and the enantiomerically pure compounds and mixtures resulting therefrom, are included within the scope of the general formula. The graphical representation of racemates or enantiomerically pure compounds herein is from Maehr, J. Chem. Ed. 1985, 62:114-120. Unless otherwise indicated, a wedge and a dashed line represent the absolute configuration of one stereogenic center.

[0198] Optically active (R)- or (S)-isomers can be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques. Compounds of the application containing asymmetrically substituted carbon atoms can exist in optically active form or as racemic mixtures. Resolution of racemic mixtures into their individual components can be achieved by any of a number of methods known in the art. Exemplary methods include fractional recrystallization using chiral resolving acids, which are optically active, salt-forming organic acids. Suitable resolving agents for fractional recrystallization procedures are, for example, optically active acids, such as the D and L forms of tartaric acid, diacetyltartaric acid, dibenzoyltartaric acid, mandelic acid, malic acid, lactic acid or the various optically active camphorsulfonic acids. Other suitable resolving agents for fractional crystallization procedures include the stereoisomerically pure forms of a-methyl- benzylamine (e.g., the S and R forms or diastereomeric pure forms), 2-phenylglycinol, norephedrine, ephedrine, N-methylephedrine, cyclohexylethylamine, 1,2-diaminocyclohexane, and the like. Resolution of racemic mixtures can also be achieved by elution of a chromatography column packed with an optically active resolving agent (e.g., a dinitrobenzoylphenylglycine). High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) can be employed as can supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC). The choice of the particular method and elution conditions, as well as the choice of the chromatography column, can be selected by one skilled in the art based upon the structure of the compound and the results of the test. Further, any enantiomer or diastereomer of a compound described herein can be obtained by stereospecific synthesis from an optically pure starting material or reagent of known configuration.

[0199] The term "tautomer" refers to isomers of a molecule that differ only in the position of a proton, except where otherwise specified. Compounds of the application can exhibit tautomerism. Tautomeric compounds can exist in two or more interconvertible forms. Proton- shifting tautomers result from the migration of a covalently bonded hydrogen atom between two atoms. Tautomers generally exist in equilibrium and attempts to isolate a single tautomer usually result in a mixture whose physical properties are consistent with a mixture of compounds. The position of the equilibrium depends on the intramolecular chemistry. For example, in many aliphatic aldehydes and ketones, such as acetaldehyde, the keto form predominates; in phenols, the enol form predominates. The present application includes all tautomeric forms of the compounds. For example may interconvert.

[0200] Unless otherwise indicated, a wedged solid line bond and a wedged dashed line bond indicate the absolute configuration at a stereocenter, a straight solid line bond and a straight dashed line bond indicate the relative configuration at a stereocenter.

[0201] The compounds of the present application can contain unnatural proportions of atomic isotopes at one or more of the atoms that constitute such compounds. For example, the compounds can be labeled with radioactive isotopes, such as deuterium (2H), tritium (3H), iodine-125 (125I) or C-14 (14C). All isotopic variations of the compounds of the present application, whether radioactive or not, are encompassed within the scope of the present application.

[0202] The term "effective amount" or "therapeutically effective amount" with respect to a drug or pharmacological agent refers to a sufficient amount of the drug or agent to provide the desired effect, without being toxic to the subject. For oral dosage forms of the present application, an "effective amount" of one active agent in a composition refers to the amount needed to achieve the desired effect in conjunction with the other active agent in the composition. The determination of an effective amount is dependent on the age and general condition of the subject, as well as the particular active agent, and an appropriate effective amount for a given case can be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art using routine testing.

[0203] The term "active ingredient," "therapeutic agent," "active agent," or "active agent" refers to a chemical entity that is effective in treating a disorder, disease, or condition of interest, unless otherwise specified.

[0204] The term "substituted," unless otherwise specified, means that any one or more hydrogen atoms on the particular atom is / are replaced with a substituent group, including heavy isotopes and variations of hydrogen, as long as the valency of the particular atom is not exceeded and the substituted compound is stable. When the substituent is oxo (i.e., =0), it can be represented as oxidation of carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur atoms, including but not limited to C(=0), S(=0), S(=0)2, or N(=0).

[0205] The term "optionally" or "optional," unless otherwise specified, means that the subsequently described event or circumstance can or can not occur, and that the description includes instances where the event or circumstance occurs and instances where it does not.

[0206] The term "optionally substituted" means that the group can or can not be substituted and that the types and number of substituents are optional on a chemical basis.

[0207] When any variable (e.g., R) occurs more than one time in a compound, its definition in each instance is independent of the definition of the other occurrences. Thus, for example, if a group is substituted with 0-2 R groups, then the group is optionally substituted with up to two R groups, and the R group is independently selected at each occurrence. Also, combinations of substituents and / or variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds.

[0208] The term "D" is used to represent the isotope deuterium (2H) unless otherwise specified. 2 H).
