Description

HETEROARYL COMPOUNDS USEFUL AS TYK2 INHIBITORS BACKGROUND

[0001] Tyrosine Kinase 2 (TYK2) is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase involved in both adaptive and innate immune responses. It is a member of the Janus kinase (JAK) family, which also includes JAK1, JAK2, and JAK3. These kinases are associated with cytokine receptors and mediate the tyrosine phosphorylation of these receptors. This process recruits and activates STAT transcription factors, regulating gene expression crucial for diverse cellular functions and human physiology.

[0002] More than 50 cytokines, growth factors and hormones are known to utilize the JAK-STAT signaling pathway to perform their roles in cell differentiation, metabolism, survival, homeostasis, and immune response. TYK2, which is ubiquitously expressed and particularly active in immune cells, transduces signals downstream from various cytokine receptor families, including type I IFNAR, IL-6R, IL-10R, IL-12R, IL-13R, and IL-23R. Consequently, TYK2 coordinates a broad range of cellular responses, significantly impacting cytokine functions (Hu, X. (2021). The JAK / STAT signaling pathway: from bench to clinic. In Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy (Vol. 6, Issue 1). Springer Nature, https: / / doi.org / 10.1038 / s41392-021-00791-1).SUMMARY

In vitro assays include assays that determine inhibition of either the phosphorylation activity and / or the subsequent functional consequences, or ATPase activity of activated TYK2. Alternate in vitro assays quantitate the ability of the inhibitor to bind to TYK2. Inhibitor binding may be measured by radiolabeling the inhibitor prior to binding, isolating the inhibitor / TYK2 complex and determining the amount of radiolabel bound. Alternatively, inhibitor binding may be determined by running a competition experiment where new inhibitors are incubated with TYK2 bound to known radioligands.Uses of Compounds and Compositions

[0220] Protein tyrosine kinases are a class of enzymes that catalyze the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP or GTP to a tyrosine residue located on a protein substrate. Receptor tyrosine kinases act to transmit signals from the outside of a cell to the inside by activating secondary messaging effectors via a phosphorylation event. A variety of cellular processes are promoted by these signals, including proliferation, carbohydrate utilization, protein synthesis, angiogenesis, cell growth, and cell survival.

[0221] Studies on TYK2 deficiency in humans and mice have demonstrated the crucial role of TYK2 in modulating IL-12, IL-23, and type I interferons (e.g., IFNa), as well as subsequent cellular responses (Dendrou, C. A. et al. (2016). Resolving TYK2 locus genotype-to-phenotype differences in autoimmunity, http: / / stm.sciencemag.org / ; Ishizaki, M. et al. (2011). Involvement of tyrosine kinase-2 in both the IL-12 / Thl and IL-23 / Thl7 axes in vivo. Journal of Immunology (Baltimore, Md.: 1950), 187(\), 181-189. https: / / doi.org / 10.4049 / JIMMUNOL.1003244.) The heterodimeric cytokines IL-12 and IL-23, which share a common p40 subunit, are essential for the differentiation and development of Thl and Thl7 cells, respectively (Teng, M. et al. (2015). IL-12 and IL-23 cytokines: from discovery to targeted therapies for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. Nature Medicine 201521:7, 21(7), 719-729. https: / / doi.org / 10.1038 / nm.3895). Thl cells play a primary role in cell-mediated immunity against intracellular pathogens by secreting IFNy, which activates macrophages and stimulates cytotoxic T cell activity. Conversely, IL-23 is crucial for the survival and expansion of Thl7 cells, which produce IL-17 along with other pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6 and TNFa. These Thl7 cells are instrumental in mediating immune responses against extracellular bacteria and fungi, as well as in driving chronic inflammation and autoimmunity. Type I interferons activate immune cells, such as macrophages and natural killer cells, and enhance the antigen-presentation capacity of dendritic cells. They signal through the type I interferon receptor (IFNAR), which is expressed on many cell types, triggering antiviral, antiproliferative, and immunomodulatory pathways (Hall, J. C., & Rosen, A. (2010). Type I interferons: crucial participants in disease amplification in autoimmunity. Nature Reviews Rheumatology 20106:1, 6(1), 40-49. https: / / doi.org / 10.1038 / nrrheum.2009.237). IFN-a plays a key role in driving autoimmunity by activating immune cells, increasing antigen presentation, and promoting theproduction of autoantibodies (Fernandez-Ruiz, R., & Niewold, T. B. (2022). Type I TFNs in Autoimmunity. The Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 142(3 PtB), 793.https: / / doi. org / 10.1016 / J. JID.2021.11.031).

[0222] Dysregulated cytokine-JAK-STAT signaling is linked with numerous autoimmune disorders, inflammatory diseases, and malignancies. Abnormal elevations of cytokines such as IL-12, IL-23, and IFN-a or aberrant activation of their pathways can lead to excessive immune responses, chronic inflammation, and tissue damage, contributing to the pathogenesis of diseases like psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease (especially Crohn’s Disease), systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, type 1 diabetes, Sjogren’s syndrome, and scleroderma (Femandez-Ruiz & Niewold, 2022; Teng et al., 2015).

[0223] In line with the observations in diseases where TYK2-dependent cytokines and receptors are upregulated, human genetic studies have demonstrated that TYK2 mutations and polymorphisms are associated with autoimmune diseases and immune-mediated cancers. TYK2 variants have been linked to systemic lupus erythematosus (Sigurdsson, S.et al. (2005).Polymorphisms in the tyrosine kinase 2 and interferon regulatory factor 5 genes are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus. American Journal of Human Genetics, 76(3), 528-537. https: / / doi.org / 10.1086 / 428480), psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease (Ellinghaus, D. et al. (2012). Combined analysis of genome-wide association studies for Crohn disease and psoriasis identifies seven shared susceptibility loci. American Journal of Human Genetics, 90(4), 636-647. https: / / doi. Org / 10.1016 / J. AJHG.2012.02.020 / ATTACHMENT / 7ADD3DD0-614A-4023-8430-FAC7F7FB61FA / MMC1. PDF), and rheumatoid arthritis (Eyre, S. (2012). High density genetic mapping identifies new susceptibility loci for rheumatoid arthritis. Nature Genetics, 44(12), 1336. https: / / doi.org / 10.1038 / NG.2462). Both germline and somatic TYK2 GOF mutations are linked to acute lymphoblastic leukemia, while oncogenic TYK2 fusions leading to constitutive activation have been identified in primary hematological malignancies (Wbss, K. et al. (2019). Tyk2: An upstream kinase of stats in cancer. In Cancers (Vol. 11, Issue 11). MDPI AG. https: / / doi.org / 10.3390 / cancerslllll728). Hyperactive TYK.2 mutants can drive malignant transformation both in vitro and in vivo (Woess, K. et al. (2023). Oncogenic TYK2 P760L kinase is effectively targeted by combinatorial TYK2, mTOR and CDK4 / 6 kinase blockade.Haematologica, 108(4), 993-1005. https: / / doi.org / 10.3324 / haematol.2021.279848). Conversely,human TYK2 loss-of-function (LOF) variants confer protection against autoimmunity but increase susceptibility to intracellular pathogens (Couturier, N. et al. (2011). Tyrosine kinase 2 variant influences T lymphocyte polarization and multiple sclerosis susceptibility. Brain, 134(3), 693-703. https: / / doi.org / 10.1093 / BRAIN / AWR010; Wu, P. et al. (2020). ATYK2 Gene Mutation c.2395G> A Leads to TYK2 Deficiency: A Case Report and Literature Review. Frontiers in Pediatrics, 8. https: / / doi.org / 10.3389 / FPED.2020.00253). TYK2-deficient mice have shown resistance to experimental models of colitis, psoriasis, and multiple sclerosis (Ishizaki et al., 2011; Oyamada, A. et al. (2009). Tyrosine Kinase 2 Plays Critical Roles in the Pathogenic CD4 T Cell Responses for the Development of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis. The Journal of Immunology, 753(11), 7539-7546. https: / / doi.org / 10.4049 / jimmunol.0902740).

[0224] The common TYK2 variant rs34536443 (P1104A), located in the JH1 kinase domain, leads to a loss of catalytic enzyme activity, likely due to the stabilization of inactive conformations (Lesgidou, N. (2018). Insights on the alteration of functionality of a tyrosine kinase 2 variant: a molecular dynamics study. Bioinformatics, 34(11), i781— i786. https: / / doi.org / 10.1093 / BIOINFORMATICS / BTY556). Importantly, this single amino acid change does not affect the protein’s expression or its scaffolding capacity (Couturier et al., 2011; Dendrou et al., 2016). This polymorphism has displayed protective effects against at least ten different autoimmune conditions in diverse populations (Dendrou et al., 2016; Yuan, S. et al. (2023). Mendelian randomization and clinical trial evidence supports TYK2 inhibition as a therapeutic target for autoimmune diseases. EBioMedicine, 89. https: / / doi. Org / 10.1016 / j.ebiom.2023.104488). Genetic meta-analyses involving 116,732 individuals genotyped and phenotype through the UK Biobank have revealed significant homozygous effects in Crohn's disease (OR=0.094), ankylosing spondylitis (OR=0.095), multiple sclerosis (OR=0.307), psoriasis (OR=0.158), and ulcerative colitis (OR=0.188), without causing significant perturbations in immune profiles or increased infection-related hospitalizations (Dendrou et al., 2016). The rs34536443 variant represents the most significant genetic protection against the development of multiple sclerosis outside of the HLA region (Jensen, L. T. et al. (2023). Allosteric TYK2 inhibition: redening autoimmune disease therapy beyond JAK1-3 inhibitors. http: / / creativecommons. Org / licenses / by / 4.0 / ). Similarly, homozygous mice carrying the orthologous missense mutation (P1124A) are protected against MOG-induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) (Dendrou et al., 2016).

[0225] These findings collectively support the potential of selective TYK2 inhibitors in treating numerous autoimmune diseases. Moreover, while TYK2 is recognized for its role in tumor surveillance, emerging data suggest an oncogenic potential, making TYK2 inhibitors also promising for cancer treatment (Woess et al., 2023).

[0226] The JAKs consist of seven homology domains (JH), organized into four functional domains. The tandem architecture of the structurally similar JH1 and JH2 domains is a hallmark of JAKs. The JH1 kinase domain, which is catalytically active, features a conserved ATP binding site, while the JH2 pseudokinase domain plays a regulatory role over the kinase domain's activity. Classical inhibitors of JAK1, 2, and 3 target the JH1 domain, which contains the ATP catalytic site and is highly conserved among many kinases. Severe safety concerns raised from clinical development and post-approval surveillance studies of first-generation, non-selective inhibitors highlight the importance of selective inhibition (Salinas, C. A. et al. (2023). Evaluation of VTE, MACE, and Serious Infections Among Patients with RA Treated with Baricitinib Compared to TNFi: A Multi -Database Study of Patients in Routine Care Using Disease Registries and Claims Databases. Rheumatology and Therapy, 10(f), 201-223. https: / / doi. Org / 10.1007 / S40744-022-00505-l / FIGURES / 3; Ytterberg, S. R. et al. (2022).Cardiovascular and Cancer Risk with Tofacitinib in Rheumatoid Arthritis. New England Journal of Medicine, 386(4), 316-326.https: / / doi. org / 10.1056 / NEJMO A2109927 / SUPPL FILE / NEJMO A2109927_D ATA-SHARING. PDF). Targeting the JH2 domain with allosteric inhibitors has enabled the development of selective functional TYK2 inhibitors that do not block JAK1, 2, and 3, paving the way for their potential use in treating numerous autoimmune diseases and cancers.

[0229] In some embodiments, a cancer is a cancer associated with TYK2 gain-of-function. Such cancers include hematological malignancies such as leukemias and lymphomas(e g., acute large cell lymphoma, T-cell acute lymphoblastic lymphoma, acute myeloid leukemia, anaplastic large cell lymphoma, etc.)

[0230] In some embodiments, a TYK2-mediated disease, disorder, or condition is an autoimmune disease. In some embodiments, an autoimmune disease is a disease that is associated with or comprises neurological involvement. In some embodiments, a disease that is associated with or comprises neurological involvement is SLE, rheumatoid arthritis, or psoriatic arthritis.

[0231] In some embodiments, an autoimmune disease is a CNS demyelinating disease. In some such embodiments, a CNS demyelinating disease is acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease, Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD), Schilder's Disease, Marburg's multiple sclerosis, Chronic Lymphocytic Inflammation with Pontine Perivascular Enhancement Responsive to Steroids (CLIPPERS), or Hashimoto’s Encephalopathy. Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis is a rare, often monophasic autoimmune demyelinating disease that follows infections or vaccinations, affecting the brain and spinal cord and causing widespread inflammation and demyelination. Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody -Associated Disease is an autoimmune disorder with demyelination in the CNS, often affecting the optic nerves and spinal cord. Unlike NMOSD, it involves antibodies against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG). NMOSD primarily affects the optic nerves and spinal cord, leading to optic neuritis and transverse myelitis. It is associated with antibodies against aquaporin-4.Schilder's Disease is a rare form of progressive multiple sclerosis that primarily affects children and young adults, causing extensive demyelination in the cerebral white matter. Marburg’s multiple sclerosis is an aggressive and fulminant form of multiple sclerosis that progresses rapidly and can be fatal within months. CLIPPERS is a rare CNS demyelinating disorder involving the brainstem, cerebellum, and pons, leading to ataxia, dizziness, and gait instability. Hashimoto’s Encephalopathy is a rare condition associated with autoimmune thyroiditis (Hashimoto's disease) and presents with CNS demyelination, causing confusion, seizures, and cognitive impairment.

[0232] In some embodiments, an autoimmune disease is a demyelinating condition associated with or comprising both central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) involvement. In some such embodiments, a demyelinating condition associated with orcomprising both CNS and PNS involvement is Neuro-Beh^et's disease, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with neuropsychiatric involvement, or sarcoidosis with neurological involvement (Neurosarcoidosis). Behcet's disease is a rare, chronic, and systemic inflammatory disorder that affects blood vessels and tissues in many parts of the body. The neural form involves CNS demyelination and inflammation, causing neurological symptoms such as headaches, balance problems, and vision impairment. SLE with neuropsychiatric involvement can cause demyelination in both the CNS and PNS, leading to cognitive changes, seizures, and peripheral neuropathy. Sarcoidosis can cause demyelinating lesions in the CNS or PNS, leading to symptoms such as cranial nerve palsies, myelopathy, or peripheral neuropathy.

[0233] In some embodiments, an autoimmune disease is a neurological disease associated with one or more of Thl / IL-12, Thl7 / IL-17, IL-23 and type I INF signaling.

Rasmussen’s Encephalitis is a rare, chronic inflammatory neurological disorder characterized by severe, progressive damage to one hemisphere of the brain, leading to intractable seizures, cognitive decline, and loss of motor function on one side of the body (hemiparesis). The condition typically affects children but can also occur in adults. The collection of diseases such as autoimmune encephalomyelitis, including anti -NMD A receptor encephalitis, anti-LGIl encephalitis, anti-GABA(A) receptor encephalitis, anti-GABA(B) receptor encephalitis, anti-CASPR2 encephalitis, anti-AMPA receptor encephalitis, Stiff Person Syndrome, Parkinson’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Alzheimer’s disease is a group of neurological disorders in which the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks healthy brain cells. CIS is a neurological disorder that refers to a first episode of neurological symptoms caused by inflammation and demyelination in the CNS, which lasts at least 24 hours. CIS is often considered a possible early stage of multiple sclerosis (MS), although not all individuals with CIS will go on to develop multiple sclerosis.

[0234] In some embodiments, an autoimmune disease is a PNS demyelinating disease. In some embodiments, a PNS demyelinating disease is Guillain-Barre syndrome, including acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP), Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP), Multifocal Motor Neuropathy, or Anti -MAG Peripheral Neuropathy. Guillain-Barre syndrome and AIDP are acute autoimmune diseases where the immune system attacks the myelin of peripheral nerves, causing ascending paralysis and, in some cases, respiratory failure. CIDP is a chronic inflammation and demyelination, leading to progressive weakness, sensory loss, and impaired motor function. CIDP is considered the chronic counterpart of Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS), progresses over months or even years. Multifocal Motor Neuropathy is a rare autoimmune disorder affecting peripheral motor nerves, leading to asymmetric muscle weakness without significant sensory loss.

[0235] In some embodiments, an autoimmune disease is a neuromuscular disorder. In some embodiments, a neuromuscular disease is myasthenia gravis, which is an autoimmune disease caused by autoantibodies that attack acetylcholine receptors or muscle-specific kinase at the neuromuscular junction.

[0240] Example 1.1. KdELECT Competition Binding Assays

[0241] The KdELECT competition assays (Eurofms DiscoverX, San Diego, CA) were employed to assess the dissociation constant (Kd) of compounds with the JH1 kinase catalytic domain or JH2 pseudokinase damain in TYK2 or JAK1-3. In these assays, the test compound competes with an immobilized ligand to bind to a DNA-tagged kinase domain. Compounds that do not bind to the target kinase domain have no effect on the amount of kinase captured by its ligand on the solid surface. Conversely, compounds that bind to the kinase domain inhibit the protein’s binding to the immobilized ligand, thereby reducing the amount of kinase captured on the solid surface. The amount of kinase bound to the immobilized ligand is quantified by amplifying the DNAtags using quantitative PCR (qPCR). A dose-response curve is generated by plotting the qPCR signal intensity as a function of the test compound concentration.

[0242] Binding constants (Kds) were calculated using a standard dose-response curve with the Hill equation:

[0244] The Hill Slope was set to -1. Curves were fitted using a non-linear least square fit with the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm.

[0245] Briefly, the JH1 or JH2 protein segments were either expressed on T7 phage coat and tagged with a qPCR detection amplicon or produced in HEK 293 cells as a fusion with the DNA binding domain ofNFkB, and subsequently tagged with a qPCR detection amplicon. Streptavidin-coated magnetic beads were treated with biotinylated small molecule ligands for 30 minutes at room temperature to generate affinity resins for kinase assays. The liganded beads were blocked with excess biotin and washed with blocking buffer (SeaBlock (Pierce), 1% BSA, 0.05% Tween 20, 1 mM DTT) to remove unbound ligand and to reduce non-specific binding. Binding reactions were assembled by combining kinases, liganded affinity beads, and test compounds in lx binding buffer (20% SeaBlock, 0.17x PBS, 0.05% Tween 20, 6 mM DTT). Thetest compound was prepared as 111 x stocks in 100% DMSO and directly diluted into the assay wells. All reactions performed in polypropylene 384-well plate with a final volume of 0.02 ml. The assay plates were incubated at room temperature with shaking for 1 hour and the affinity beads were washed with wash buffer (lx PBS, 0.05% Tween 20). The beads were then resuspended in elution buffer (lx PBS, 0.05% Tween 20, 0.5 pM non- biotinylated affinity ligand) and incubated at room temperature with shaking for 30 minutes. The kinase concentration in the eluates was measured by qPCR. Results are presented in Table 1.

[0248] Example 1.2. MDCK-MDR1 Assay

[0249] MDCK-MDR1 assay was used to evaluate the permeability and transport of drugs across cellular barriers.

[0250] Preparation ofMDCK-MDRl Cells

[0251] Prior to seeding MDCK-MDR1 cells into a 96-well HTS Transwell plate, 50 pL of cell culture medium was added to each Transwell insert and 25 mL to the reservoir. The plates were incubated at 37 °C with 5% CO2 for 1 hour. The cells were diluted to 1.56 x 106cells / mLwith culture medium, and 50 pL of the cell suspension was dispensed into the fdter wells. The cells were cultured for 3-8 days at 37 °C with 5% CO2 and 95% relative humidity, with the medium replaced every other day, starting no later than 24 hours after initial plating.

[0252] Assessment of Cell Monolayer Integrity

[0253] The medium was removed from both the Transwell inserts and the reservoirs and replaced with pre-warmed fresh culture medium. Transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) across the cell monolayer was measured using a Millicell Epithelial Volt-Ohm measuring system (Millipore, USA). After measurement, the plates were returned to the incubator. The TEER value was calculated by multiplying the TEER measurement (ohms) by the membrane area (cm2). A TEER value greater than 42 ohm«cm2indicated a well-qualified MDCK-MDR1 monolayer.

[0254] Assay Procedures

[0255] Stock solutions of the test compounds and positive control solutions (metoprolol, prazosin, and imatinib) were prepared at 10 mM in DMSO. The MDCK-MDR1 plates were removed from the incubator and washed twice with pre-warmed HBSS (10 mM HEPES, pH 7.4), followed by a 30-minute incubation at 37 °C. Stock solutions of test compounds and controls were diluted to 0.2 mM in DMSO and further diluted in HBSS to a final concentration of 1 pM, with a DMSO concentration of 0.5% in the system.

[0256] To determine the rate of drug transport in the apical-to-basolateral direction, 75 pL of 1 pM working solutions of test and control compounds were added to the Transwell inserts (apical compartment), and 235 pL of HBSS was added to the receiver plate wells (basolateral compartment). The assay was performed in duplicate.

[0257] For the basolateral-to-apical drug transport assay, 235 pL of the 1 pM working solutions were added to the basolateral compartment, and the Transwell inserts (apical compartment) were filled with 75 pL of HBSS. Time 0 samples were collected by transferring 50 pL of the working solution to a 96-deepwell plate, followed by the addition of 200 pL of cold methanol containing appropriate internal standards (100 nM alprazolam, 200 nM labetalol, 200 nM caffeine, and 200 nM diclofenac).
