[0004] Somatic mutations in the TP 53 gene occur in nearly every adult malignancy and represent the most commonly occurring genetic defect in tumor genomic sequencing (Rivlin et al. (2011) Genes Cancer. 2:466-74). In the germline, inherited pathogenic variants (PVs) in TP53, characteristic of clinical Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (LFS), are rare. Occurring with an estimated prevalene of -1 / 3500-1 / 5500, these PVs are associated with high risks of early-onset and multiple cancers over a lifetime (de Andrade et al. (2019) HumMutat. 40:97-105; Mai et al. (2016) Cancer 20122:3673-81; Schneider et al. (1993) GeneReviews((R))). In addition to increased risk of colorectal cancer, leukemia, and adrenocortical cancers, LFS greatly increases the risk of breast cancer (up to 54% by age 70), childhood and adult soft-tissue sarcomas (15-22% lifetime risk), and brain tumors (6-19% lifetime risk) (Mai et al. (2016) Cancer 20122:3673-81). Overall, lifetime risk of any cancer (penetrance) for germline carriers of TP53 pathogenic variants has been estimated to be as high as 90% forAttorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1women and 70% for men (Rana et al. (2018) J Natl Cancer Inst. 110:863-70). The rate of de novo germline pathogenic variants in TP53 is estimated to be -10-20% (Gonzalez et al. (2009) J Clin Oncol. 27:1250-6; Gonzalez et al. (2009) J Med Genet. 46:689-93) “The biological underpinnings of therapeutic resistance in pancreatic cancer’7Genes Dev).

[0005] Among LFS families, intensive surveillance is required to detect pre-malignant lesions (e.g., colorectal polyps) and diagnose / prevent invasive cancers at their earliest stages, when curative treatments may be available (Villani et al. (2016) Lancet Oncol 17: 1295-305; The National Comprehensive Cancer Network Clinical Practice Guidelines® in Oncology: Li-Fraumeni syndrome (Version 1.2015). ©2015 National Comprehensive Cancer Network, Inc. 2019). LFS individuals are recommended to undergo neurologic exams, whole-body MRI annually, and abdominal ultrasonography every 3-4 months in childhood and adolescence. Adult women are recommended to commence annual mammogram and breast MRI in their 20s (some patients undergo surgical prophylaxis) (e.g., bilateral mastectomy)); and adult men and women are recommended to have annual skin exams and upper and lower endoscopy every72-5 years starting at age 25 (Frebourg et al. (2020) Eur J Hum Genet.28:1379-86).

[0006] Most TP 53 mutations in LFS are missense, and nearly all map to p53's DNA-binding “core domain” (Malkin (2011) Genes Cancer 2:475-84). Tumors from LFS patients have also lost the WT allele (loss of heterozygosity) in 40-60% of cases (Varley et al. (1997) BrJ Cancer 76: 1-14; Shetzer et al. (2014) Cell Death Differ 21: 1419-31). With the exception of one specific Brazilian LFS founder mutation (Giacomazzi et al. (2014) PLoS One 9:e99893), the distribution of germline mutations in LFS closely matches that observed in cancers with somatic TP53 mutations (Walerych et al. (2012) Carcinogenesis 33:2007-17). While some of these mutations unsurprisingly map to residues in direct contact with DNA, many do not (FIG. 1A). Importantly, the biophysical changes in p53 structure induced by many of these PVs inspires a potential interception strategy. From a thermodynamic standpoint, wild-type p53 is only marginally stable (Bullock et al. (1997) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 94: 14338-42; Butler and Loh (2006) Protein Sci. 15:2457-65). Many of the most frequently occurring deactivating mutations, then, reduce the conformational stability7of the core domain such that the protein instead adopts an unfolded (or misfolded) conformation (Bullock et al. (2000) Oncogene 19: 1245-56). This mechanism is supported by the observation that compensatory (“second-site suppressor”) mutations to stabilize p53 (Baroni et al. (2004) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 101:4930-5), or reduce its propensity7for aggregation (Xu et al. (2011) Nat Chem Biol.Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P17:285-95), can rescue loss-of-function associated with these particular deactivating mutations. Together, these observations strongly suggest that a compound with the capacity to re-stabilize p53 may reverse the pathophysiological effects of certain LFS mutations.

[0007] The study of diverse cancers with somatic missense mutations in TP53 has revealed three key aspects of p53 activity. First, in light of p53’s strong tumor suppressive role, expression of WT p53 is lost in >93% of these cancers (loss of heterozy gosity') (Parikh et al. (2014) J Pathol. 232:522-33). Second, levels of WT p53 in cells are limited based on interactions with the ubiquitin ligase MDM2, which targets it for degradation. In LFS. by contrast, mutant p53"s degradation by MDM2 is disrupted, such that destabilized mutant p53 accumulates in cells (Ashcroft and Vousden (1999) Oncogene 18:7637-43; Yue et al. (2017) J Mol Biol. 429:1595-606). Third, and finally, certain p53 mutants also acquire gain-of-function (GOF) activities that promote chemoresistance, proliferation, invasion, and metastasis (Yue et al. (2017) J Mol Biol. 429:1595-606; Dittmer et al. (1993) Nat Genet.4:42-6; Blandino et al. (2018) J Exp Clin Cancer Res. 37:30; Hanel et al. (2013) Cell Death Differ. 20:898-909; Lang et al. (2004) Cell 119:861-72), and LFS individuals heterozygous for these missense mutations (TP53m,u') have earlier onset of their first tumor relative to TP53 indivudals (Hanel et al. (2013) Cell Death Differ. 20:898-909).

[0008] In addition to the TP53 mutations specific to LFS, mutations and deletions in p53 have been found in more than half of human cancers. Some of the most frequently occurring of these missense mutations are localized to the DNA-binding “core domain’" of p53, but do not involve surface residues directly responsible for binding DNA. Rather, these mutations reduce the thermodynamic stability of this already marginally-stable protein, leading to loss of function (LOF) due to an insufficient amount of correctly folded p53. Separate from the loss of tumor suppressive function by these mutants, some mutants of p53 also confer oncogenic gain of function (GOF) activities.

[0009] Many groups have sought compounds that restore p53 activities to cells expressing mutant p53, essentially aiming to phenocopy the effect of second-site suppressor mutations. Most commonly, these deployed cell-based phenotypic screens: for example, transfecting a luciferase reporter controlled by a p53 response element into a cell line expressing mutant p53, and then screening for compounds that induce luciferase (Wang et al. (2006) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 103: 11003-8). Typically, however, this approach has led to compounds that activate the desired transcriptional response through other means, including induction of Hsp40 activity (chetomin) (Hiraki et al. (2015) Chem Biol. 22:1206-16), inhibition ofAttorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1MDM2-family members (e.g., Nutlin-3) (Vassilev et al. (2004) Science 303:844-8), and modulation of cellular zinc concentration (NSC319726 / ZMC1) (Yu et al. (2012) Cancer Cell.21:614-25; Yu et al. (2014) Oncotarget 5:8879-92). Many of these compounds also retain at least some of their anti-cancer activities in 77’53-null cells of independent of TP 53 status, implying (at best) that their direct cellular target is not limited to mutant p53 (Wang et al. (2006) Proc Natl Acad Set USA 103:11003-8; Sonnemann et al. (2015) Eur J Cancer 51:841-51). Clearly, the broad and potentially undefined molecular targets of these agents make them unsuitable in the context of prevent! on / early disease.

[0010] Already some novel therapeutics have sought to directly target p53. Among many of the apparent successes in correcting missense mutations in mutant p53, however, mechanistic surprises have emerged. The first compound designed to bind mutant p53, CP-31398 (Foster et al. (1999) Science 286:2507-10), exhibited good pre-clinical efficacy in TP53-mutated cancer; however, some data indicate this compound may be acting as a DNA intercalator rather than via direct p53 targeting (Rippin et al. (2002) Oncogene 21:2119-29; Tanner et al. (2004) J Negat Results Biomed 3:5). PRIMA-P11 1(APR-246) is thought to directly engage and covalently bind to mutant p53 (Bykov et al. (2005) Oncogene 24:3484-91), and in 2020 was FDA-approved for patients with / / <55-mutated hematologic malignancies. However, data from several groups, and clinical trials, indicate that in addition to p53 re-activation, this compound kills tumors in a manner independent of mutant p53 (Rokaeus et al. (2010) Oncogene 29:6442-51; Sahaet al. (2013) Mol Cancer Ther, 12:2331-41), possibly through inhibiting MEK kinase (Lu et al. (2016) Oncotarget 7:83017-30). or through some entirely different mechanism. PK11007, like PRIMA-1MET, forms a covalent adduct to p53 but also acts in both a p53-dependent and p53-independent manner (Bauer et al. (2016) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 113: E5271-80; Synnott et al. (2018) Cancer Lett 414:99-106). Most recently, arsenic trioxide (ATO) was reported as another cysteine-reactive refolder of mutant p53 (Chen et al. (2021) Cancer Cell 39:225-39 e8); but here again, ATO has open-ended polypharmacology with previously reported molecular targets including JNK (Kajiguchi et al. (2006) Cancer Sci. 97:540-5; Wu et al. (2014) PLoSOne 9:e86445; Huang et al. (2010) Toxicol Appl Pharmacol 244:234-41), PML-RARA (Gumari et al. (2019) Chemotherapy 64:238-47), and more (Miller et a. (2002) Cancer Res 62:3893-903). While some of these may prove to be valuable chemotherapeutic agents, their numerous off-target activities preclude utility for prevent / interception of early disease in LFS individuals.Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1

[0011] At present, there are only three compounds with activity that likely derives solely from direct targeting of p53. The first is SCH529074, which binds to both mutant and WT p53 in a DNA-competitive manner. Acting as a chaperone to help maintain p53's active conformation, the compound is then displaced by p53's cognate DNA (Demma et al. (2010) J Biol Chem 285:10198-212). This compound binds to p53 very weakly, which precludes direct translation to the clinic; a tighter-binding analog would inhibit p53’s DNA-binding capability, which would prove undesirable by phenocopying TP53 loss-of-function. Two other compounds, PhiKanO83 and PC 14586, target a shallow surface cleft that is introduced by the Y220C mutation: these two compounds each fill this newly-available pocket. Because this pocket is present only in the folded conformation, and only on the Y220C mutant, these compounds selectively restore WT p53’s activity to this particular mutant (Boeckler et al. (2008) Proc NallAcad Sci USA 105:10360-5; Liu et al. (2013) NucleicAcids Res 41:6034-44; Baud et al. (2018) Eur J Med Chem 152: 101-14; Dumble et al. (2021) Experimental and Molecular Therapeutics p. LB006-LB). However, this approach is also not extensible to the majority of cancer-associated mutations, because most do not produce anew surface pocket (as Y220C does), and only a small fraction of the LFS population harbors this particular mutation.

[0012] In sum, despite the solid justification for developing drugs that restore p53 activity, currently available agents are fraught with limitations. Accordingly, there remains a need for compounds and compositions that restore p53 activity and methods of making and using same.SUMMARY

[0013] In accordance with the purpose(s) of the invention, as embodied and broadly described herein, the invention, in one aspect, relates to compounds and compositions for use in restoring p53 activity. Such utility can be useful in, for example, the treatment of cancer (e.g., pancreatic cancer, head-and-neck cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, and ovarian cancer), the treatment of Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS), and the prevention of cancer in a subject having LFS.

[0045] As used in the specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an” and “the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to “a functional group,” “an alkyl,” or “a residue” includes mixtures of two or more such functional groups, alkyls, or residues, and the like.

[0046] As used in the specification and in the claims, the term “comprising” can include the aspects “consisting of’ and “consisting essentially of.”

[0047] Ranges can be expressed herein as from “about” one particular value, and / or to “about” another particular value. When such a range is expressed, another aspect includes from the one particular value and / or to the other particular value. Similarly, when values are expressed as approximations, by use of the antecedent “about,” it will be understood that the particular value forms another aspect. It will be further understood that the endpoints of each of the ranges are significant both in relation to the other endpoint, and independently of the other endpoint. It is also understood that there are a number of values disclosed herein, and that each value is also herein disclosed as “about” that particular value in addition to the value itself. For example, if the value “10” is disclosed, then “about 10” is also disclosed. It is also understood that each unit between two particular units are also disclosed. For example, if 10 and 15 are disclosed, then 11, 12. 13. and 14 are also disclosed.Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1

[0048] As used herein, the terms “about” and “at or about” mean that the amount or value in question can be the value designated some other value approximately or about the same. It is generally understood, as used herein, that it is the nominal value indicated ±10% variation unless otherwise indicated or inferred. The term is intended to convey that similar values promote equivalent results or effects recited in the claims. That is, it is understood that amounts, sizes, formulations, parameters, and other quantities and characteristics are not and need not be exact, but can be approximate and / or larger or smaller, as desired, reflecting tolerances, conversion factors, rounding off. measurement error and the like, and other factors known to those of skill in the art. In general, an amount, size, formulation, parameter or other quantity or characteristic is “about” or “approximate” whether or not expressly stated to be such. It is understood that where “about” is used before a quantitative value, the parameter also includes the specific quantitative value itself, unless specifically stated otherwise.

[0049] References in the specification and concluding claims to parts by weight of a particular element or component in a composition denotes the weight relationship between the element or component and any other elements or components in the composition or article for which a part by weight is expressed. Thus, in a compound containing 2 parts by weight of component X and 5 parts by weight component Y, X and Y are present at a weight ratio of 2:5, and are present in such ratio regardless of whether additional components are contained in the compound.

[0050] A weight percent (wt. %) of a component, unless specifically stated to the contrary, is based on the total weight of the formulation or composition in which the component is included.

[0051] As used herein, “IC50” is intended to refer to the concentration of a substance (e.g., a compound or a drug) that is required for 50% inhibition of a biological process, or component of a process, including a protein, subunit, organelle, ribonucleoprotein, etc. In one aspect, an IC50 can refer to the concentration of a substance that is required for 50% inhibition m vivo, as further defined elsewhere herein.

Thus, the subject of the herein disclosed methods can be a human, non-human primate, horse, pig, rabbit, dog, sheep, goat, cow. cat, guinea pig or rodent. The term does not denote a particular age or sex. Thus, adult and newborn subjects, as well as fetuses, whether male or female, are intended to be covered. In one aspect, the subject is a mammal. A patient refers to a subject afflicted with a disease or disorder. The term “patient” includes human and veterinary subjects.

[0055] As used herein, the term “treatment” refers to the medical management of a patient with the intent to cure, ameliorate, stabilize, or prevent a disease, pathological condition, or disorder. This term includes active treatment, that is, treatment directed specifically toward the improvement of a disease, pathological condition, or disorder, and also includes causal treatment, that is, treatment directed toward removal of the cause of the associated disease, pathological condition, or disorder. In addition, this term includes palliative treatment, that is, treatment designed for the relief of symptoms rather than the curing of the disease, pathological condition, or disorder; preventative treatment, that is, treatment directed to minimizing or partially or completely inhibiting the development of the associated disease, pathological condition, or disorder; and supportive treatment, that is, treatment employed to supplement another specific therapy directed toward the improvement of the associated disease, pathological condition, or disorder. In various aspects, the term covers any treatment of a subject, including a mammal (e.g., a human), and includes: (i) preventing the disease from occurring in a subject that can be predisposed to the disease but has not yet been diagnosed as having it; (ii) inhibiting the disease, i.e., arresting its development; or (iii) relieving the disease, i.e., causing regression of the disease. In one aspect, the subject is a mammal such as a primate, and, in a further aspect, the subject is a human. The term “subject” also includes domesticated animals (e.g., cats, dogs, etc.), livestock (e.g. cattle, horses, pigs, sheep, goats, etc.), and laboratory animals (e.g, mouse, rabbit, rat, guinea pig, fruit fly, etc.).Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1

[0056] As used herein, the term '‘prevent” or ‘'preventing” refers to precluding, averting, obviating, forestalling, stopping, or hindering something from happening, especially by advance action. It is understood that where reduce, inhibit or prevent are used herein, unless specifically indicated otherwise, the use of the other two words is also expressly disclosed.

Such methods are well known to those skilled in the art and include, but are not limited to, oral administration, transdermal administration, administration by inhalation, nasal administration, topical administration, intravaginal administration, ophthalmic administration, intraaural administration, intracerebral administration, rectal administration, sublingual administration, buccal administration, and parenteral administration, including injectable such as intravenous administration, intra-arterial administration, intramuscular administration, and subcutaneous administration. Administration can be continuous or intermittent. In various aspects, a preparation can be administered therapeutically: that is, administered to treat an existing disease or condition. In further various aspects, a preparation can be administered prophylactically; that is, administered for prevention of a disease or condition.

[0059] As used herein, the terms “effective amount” and “amount effective” refer to an amount that is sufficient to achieve the desired result or to have an effect on an undesired condition. For example, a “therapeutically effective amount” refers to an amount that is sufficient to achieve the desired therapeutic result or to have an effect on undesired symptoms, but is generally insufficient to cause adverse side effects. The specific therapeutically effective dose level for any particular patient will depend upon a variety of factors including the disorder being treated and the severity of the disorder; the specific composition employed; the age, body weight, general health, sex and diet of the patient; the time of administration; the route of administration; the rate of excretion of the specific compound employed; the duration of the treatment; drugs used in combination or coincidental with the specific compound employed and like factors well known in the medical arts. For example, it is well within the skill of the art to start doses of a compound at levels lower than those required to achieve the desired therapeutic effect and to gradually increase the dosage until the desired effect is achieved. If desired, the effective daily doseAttorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1can be divided into multiple doses for purposes of administration. Consequently, single dose compositions can contain such amounts or submultiples thereof to make up the daily dose. The dosage can be adjusted by the individual physician in the event of any contraindications. Dosage can vary, and can be administered in one or more dose administrations daily, for one or several days. Guidance can be found in the literature for appropriate dosages for given classes of pharmaceutical products. In further various aspects, a preparation can be administered in a “prophylactically effective amount’'; that is, an amount effective for prevention of a disease or condition.

[0060] As used herein, “dosage form” means a pharmacologically active material in a medium, carrier, vehicle, or device suitable for administration to a subject. A dosage forms can comprise inventive a disclosed compound, a product of a disclosed method of making, or a salt, solvate, or polymorph thereof, in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, such as a preservative, buffer, saline, or phosphate buffered saline. Dosage forms can be made using conventional pharmaceutical manufacturing and compounding techniques. Dosage forms can comprise inorganic or organic buffers (e.g., sodium or potassium salts of phosphate, carbonate, acetate, or citrate) and pH adjustment agents (e.g., hydrochloric acid, sodium or potassium hydroxide, salts of citrate or acetate, amino acids and their salts) antioxidants (e.g., ascorbic acid, alpha-tocopherol), surfactants (e.g., polysorbate 20, polysorbate 80, polyoxyethylene9-10 nonyl phenol, sodium desoxycholate), solution and / or cryo / lyo stabilizers (e.g., sucrose, lactose, mannitol, trehalose), osmotic adjustment agents (e.g., salts or sugars), antibacterial agents (e g., benzoic acid, phenol, gentamicin), antifoaming agents (e.g., polydimethylsilozone), preservatives (e.g., thimerosal, 2-phenoxy ethanol, EDTA), polymeric stabilizers and viscosity -adjustment agents (e g., polyvinylpyrrolidone, poloxamer 488, carboxymethylcellulose) and co-solvents (e.g., glycerol, polyethylene glycol, ethanol). A dosage form formulated for injectable use can have a disclosed compound, a product of a disclosed method of making, or a salt, solvate, or polymorph thereof, suspended in sterile saline solution for injection together with a preservative.

[0061] As used herein, “kit” means a collection of at least two components constituting the kit. Together, the components constitute a functional unit for a given purpose. Individual member components may be physically packaged together or separately. For example, a kit comprising an instruction for using the kit may or may not physically include the instruction with other individual member components. Instead, the instruction can be supplied as aAttorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1separate member component, either in a paper form or an electronic form which may be supplied on computer readable memory device or downloaded from an internet website, or as recorded presentation.

[0062] As used herein. “instruction(s)” means documents describing relevant materials or methodologies pertaining to a kit.

The agent may be a biologically active agent used in medical, including veterinary, applications and in agriculture, such as with plants, as well as other areas. The term "therapeutic agent" also includes without limitation, medicaments; vitamins; mineral supplements; substances used for the treatment, prevention, diagnosis, cure or mitigation of disease or illness; or substances which affect the structure or function of the body; or pro- drugs, which become biologically active or more active after they have been placed in a predetermined physiological environment.Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1

[0064] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable” describes a material that is not biologically or otherwise undesirable, i.e., without causing an unacceptable level of undesirable biological effects or interacting in a deleterious manner.

[0065] As used herein, the term “derivative” refers to a compound having a structure derived from the structure of a parent compound (e.g., a compound disclosed herein) and whose structure is sufficiently similar to those disclosed herein and based upon that similarity, would be expected by one skilled in the art to exhibit the same or similar activities and utilities as the claimed compounds, or to induce, as a precursor, the same or similar activities and utilities as the claimed compounds. Exemplary derivatives include salts, esters, amides, salts of esters or amides, and N-oxides of a parent compound.

[0066] As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” refers to sterile aqueous or nonaqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions or emulsions, as well as sterile powders for reconstitution into sterile injectable solutions or dispersions just prior to use. Examples of suitable aqueous and nonaqueous carriers, diluents, solvents or vehicles include water, ethanol, polyols (such as glycerol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol and the like), carboxymethylcellulose and suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils (such as olive oil) and injectable organic esters such as ethyl oleate. Proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of coating materials such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions and by the use of surfactants. These compositions can also contain adjuvants such as preservatives, wetting agents, emulsifying agents and dispersing agents. Prevention of the action of microorganisms can be ensured by the inclusion of various antibacterial and antifungal agents such as paraben, chlorobutanol, phenol, sorbic acid and the like. It can also be desirable to include isotonic agents such as sugars, sodium chloride and the like. Prolonged absorption of the injectable pharmaceutical form can be brought about by the inclusion of agents, such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin, which delay absorption. Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of the drug in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide, poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depending upon the ratio of drug to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer employed, the rate of drug release can be controlled. Depot injectable formulations are also prepared by entrapping the drug in liposomes or microemulsions which are compatible with body tissues. The injectable formulations can be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacterial-retaining filter or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved or dispersed in sterile water orAttorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1other sterile injectable media just prior to use. Suitable inert carriers can include sugars such as lactose. Desirably, at least 95% by weight of the particles of the active ingredient have an effective particle size in the range of 0.01 to 10 micrometers.

[0067] As used herein, the term “substituted” is contemplated to include all permissible substituents of organic compounds. In a broad aspect, the permissible substituents include acyclic and cyclic, branched and unbranched, carbocyclic and heterocyclic, and aromatic and nonaromatic substituents of organic compounds. Illustrative substituents include, for example, those described below. The permissible substituents can be one or more and the same or different for appropriate organic compounds. For purposes of this disclosure, the heteroatoms, such as nitrogen, can have hydrogen substituents and / or any permissible substituents of organic compounds described herein which satisfy the valences of the heteroatoms. This disclosure is not intended to be limited in any manner by the permissible substituents of organic compounds. Also, the terms “substitution” or “substituted with” include the implicit proviso that such substitution is in accordance with permitted valence of the substituted atom and the substituent, and that the substitution results in a stable compound, e.g., a compound that does not spontaneously undergo transformation such as by rearrangement, cyclization, elimination, etc. It is also contemplated that, in certain aspects, unless expressly indicated to the contrary, individual substituents can be further optionally substituted (i.e., further substituted or unsubstituted).

[0068] In defining various terms, “A1,” “A2,” “A3,” and “A4” are used herein as generic symbols to represent various specific substituents. These symbols can be any substituent, not limited to those disclosed herein, and when they are defined to be certain substituents in one instance, they can, in another instance, be defined as some other substituents.

[0069] The term “aliphatic” or “aliphatic group,” as used herein, denotes a hydrocarbon moiety that may be straight-chain (i.e., unbranched), branched, or cyclic (including fused, bridging, and spirofused polycyclic) and may be completely saturated or may contain one or more units of unsaturation, but which is not aromatic. Unless otherwise specified, aliphatic groups contain 1-20 carbon atoms. Aliphatic groups include, but are not limited to, linear or branched, alkyl, alkenyl, and alkynyl groups, and hybrids thereof such as (cycloalkyl)alkyl, (cycloalkenyl)alkyl or (cycloalkyl)alkenyl.

[0070] The term “alkyl” as used herein is a branched or unbranched saturated hydrocarbon group of 1 to 24 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, s-butyl, t-butyl, n-pentyl, isopentyl, s-pentyl, neopentyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl, nonyl, decyl,Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1dodecyl, tetradecyl, hexadecyl, eicosyl, tetracosyl, and the like. The alkyl group can be cyclic or acyclic. The alkyl group can be branched or unbranched. The alkyl group can also be substituted or unsubstituted. For example, the alkyl group can be substituted with one or more groups including, but not limited to, alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, amino, ether, halide, hydroxy, nitro, silyl, sulfo-oxo, or thiol, as described herein. A “lower alkyl” group is an alkyl group containing from one to six (e.g., from one to four) carbon atoms. The term alkyl group can also be a Cl alky l, C1-C2 alkyl, C1-C3 alky l, C1-C4 alkyl, C1-C5 alkyl, C1-C6 alkyl, C1-C7 alkyl. C1-C8 alkyl. C1-C9 alkyl. C1-C10 alkyl, and the like up to and including a C1-C24 alkyl.

[0071] Throughout the specification “alky l” is generally used to refer to both unsubstituted alkyl groups and substituted alkyl groups; however, substituted alkyl groups are also specifically referred to herein by identifying the specific substituent(s) on the alkyl group. For example, the term “halogenated alkyl” or “haloalkyl” specifically refers to an alkyl group that is substituted with one or more halide, e.g., fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine.Alternatively, the term “monohaloalkyl” specifically refers to an alkyl group that is substituted with a single halide, e.g. fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine. The term “polyhaloalkyl” specifically refers to an alkyl group that is independently substituted with two or more halides, i.e. each halide substituent need not be the same halide as another halide substituent, nor do the multiple instances of a halide substituent need to be on the same carbon. The term “alkoxyalkyl” specifically refers to an alkyl group that is substituted with one or more alkoxy groups, as described below. The term “aminoalkyl” specifically refers to an alkyl group that is substituted with one or more amino groups. The term “hydroxyalkyl” specifically refers to an alkyl group that is substituted with one or more hydroxy groups.

[0115] The term “organic residue” defines a carbon-containing residue, i.e., a residue comprising at least one carbon atom, and includes but is not limited to the carbon-containing groups, residues, or radicals defined hereinabove. Organic residues can contain various heteroatoms, or be bonded to another molecule through a heteroatom, including oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, or the like. Examples of organic residues include but are not limited alkyl or substituted alkyds, alkoxy or substituted alkoxy, mono or di-substituted amino, amide groups, etc. Organic residues can preferably comprise 1 to 18 carbon atoms, 1 to 15, carbon atoms, 1 to 12 carbon atoms, 1 to 8 carbon atoms. 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or 1 to 4 carbon atoms. In a further aspect, an organic residue can comprise 2 to 18 carbon atoms, 2 to 15, carbon atoms, 2 to 12 carbon atoms, 2 to 8 carbon atoms, 2 to 4 carbon atoms, or 2 to 4 carbon atoms.Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1

[0116] A very close synonym of the term “residue” is the term “radical,” which as used in the specification and concluding claims, refers to a fragment, group, or substructure of a molecule described herein, regardless of how the molecule is prepared. For example, a 2,4-thiazolidinedione radical in a particular compound has the structure:Oregardless of whether thiazolidinedione is used to prepare the compound. In some embodiments the radical (for example an alkyl) can be further modified (z.e., substituted alkyl) by having bonded thereto one or more “substituent radicals.” The number of atoms in a given radical is not critical to the present invention unless it is indicated to the contrary elsewhere herein.

[0117] “Organic radicals,” as the term is defined and used herein, contain one or more carbon atoms. An organic radical can have, for example, 1-26 carbon atoms. 1-18 carbon atoms, 1-12 carbon atoms, 1-8 carbon atoms, 1-6 carbon atoms, or 1-4 carbon atoms. In a further aspect, an organic radical can have 2-26 carbon atoms, 2-18 carbon atoms, 2-12 carbon atoms, 2-8 carbon atoms, 2-6 carbon atoms, or 2-4 carbon atoms. Organic radicals often have hydrogen bound to at least some of the carbon atoms of the organic radical. One example, of an organic radical that comprises no inorganic atoms is a 5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydro-2-naphthyl radical. In some embodiments, an organic radical can contain 1-10 inorganic heteroatoms bound thereto or therein, including halogens, oxygen, sulfur, nitrogen, phosphorus, and the like. Examples of organic radicals include but are not limited to an alkyl, substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, mono-substituted amino, disubstituted amino, acyloxy, cyano, carboxy, carboalkoxy, alkyl carboxamide, substituted alkydcarboxamide, dialkylcarboxamide, substituted dialkylcarboxamide, alky lsulfonyl, alkylsulfinyl, thioalky l, thiohaloalkyl, alkoxy, substituted alkoxy, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, aryl, substituted aryl, heteroaryl, heterocyclic, or substituted heterocyclic radicals, wherein the terms are defined elsewhere herein. A few non-limiting examples of organic radicals that include heteroatoms include alkoxy radicals, trifluoromethoxy radicals, acetoxy radicals, dimethylamino radicals and the like.

[0118] Compounds described herein can contain one or more double bonds and, thus, potentially give rise to cis / trans (E / Z) isomers, as well as other conformational isomers.Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1Unless stated to the contrary, the invention includes all such possible isomers, as well as mixtures of such isomers.

[0119] Unless stated to the contrary, a formula with chemical bonds shown only as solid lines and not as wedges or dashed lines contemplates each possible isomer, e.g., each enantiomer and diastereomer, and a mixture of isomers, such as a racemic or scalemic mixture. Compounds described herein can contain one or more asymmetric centers and, thus, potentially give rise to diastereomers and optical isomers. Unless stated to the contrary, the present invention includes all such possible diastereomers as well as their racemic mixtures, their substantially pure resolved enantiomers, all possible geometric isomers, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Mixtures of stereoisomers, as well as isolated specific stereoisomers, are also included. During the course of the synthetic procedures used to prepare such compounds, or in using racemization or epimerization procedures known to those skilled in the art. the products of such procedures can be a mixture of stereoisomers.

[0120] Many organic compounds exist in optically active forms having the ability to rotate the plane of plane-polarized light. In describing an optically active compound, the prefixes D and L or R and S are used to denote the absolute configuration of the molecule about its chiral center(s). The prefixes d and 1 or (+) and (-) are employed to designate the sign of rotation of plane-polarized light by the compound, with (-) or meaning that the compound is levorotatory. A compound prefixed with (+) or d is dextrorotatory. For a given chemical structure, these compounds, called stereoisomers, are identical except that they are non-superimposable minor images of one another. A specific stereoisomer can also be referred to as an enantiomer, and a mixture of such isomers is often called an enantiomeric mixture. A 50:50 mixture of enantiomers is referred to as a racemic mixture. Many of the compounds described herein can have one or more chiral centers and therefore can exist in different enantiomeric forms. If desired, a chiral carbon can be designated with an asterisk (*). When bonds to the chiral carbon are depicted as straight lines in the disclosed formulas, it is understood that both the (R) and (S) configurations of the chiral carbon, and hence both enantiomers and mixtures thereof, are embraced within the formula. As is used in the art, when it is desired to specify the absolute configuration about a chiral carbon, one of the bonds to the chiral carbon can be depicted as a wedge (bonds to atoms above the plane) and the other can be depicted as a series or wedge of short parallel lines is (bonds to atoms below the plane). The Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system can be used to assign the (R) or (S) configuration to a chiral carbon.Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1

[0121] When the disclosed compounds contain one chiral center, the compounds exist in two enantiomeric forms. Unless specifically stated to the contrary, a disclosed compound includes both enantiomers and mixtures of enantiomers, such as the specific 50:50 mixture referred to as a racemic mixture. The enantiomers can be resolved by methods known to those skilled in the art, such as formation of diastereoisomeric salts w hich may be separated, for example, by crystallization (see, CRC Handbook of Optical Resolutions via Diastereomeric Salt Formation by David Kozma (CRC Press, 2001)); formation of diastereoisomeric derivatives or complexes which may be separated, for example, by crystallization, gas-liquid or liquid chromatography; selective reaction of one enantiomer with an enantiomer-specific reagent, for example enzymatic esterification; or gas-liquid or liquid chromatography in a chiral environment, for example on a chiral support for example silica w ith a bound chiral ligand or in the presence of a chiral solvent. It will be appreciated that where the desired enantiomer is converted into another chemical entity by one of the separation procedures described above, a further step can liberate the desired enantiomeric form. Alternatively, specific enantiomers can be synthesized by asymmetric synthesis using optically active reagents, substrates, catalysts or solvents, or by converting one enantiomer into the other by asymmetric transformation.

[0122] Designation of a specific absolute configuration at a chiral carbon in a disclosed compound is understood to mean that the designated enantiomeric form of the compounds can be provided in enantiomeric excess (e.e.). Enantiomeric excess, as used herein, is the presence of a particular enantiomer at greater than 50%. for example, greater than 60%, greater than 70%, greater than 75%, greater than 80%, greater than 85%, greater than 90%, greater than 95%, greater than 98%, or greater than 99%. In one aspect, the designated enantiomer is substantially free from the other enantiomer. For example, the “R” forms of the compounds can be substantially free from the “S” forms of the compounds and are. thus, in enantiomeric excess of theforms. Conversely,forms of the compounds can be substantially free of “R” forms of the compounds and are, thus, in enantiomeric excess of the “R” forms.

[0123] When a disclosed compound has two or more chiral carbons, it can have more than two optical isomers and can exist in diastereoisomeric forms. For example, when there are two chiral carbons, the compound can have up to four optical isomers and two pairs of enantiomers ((S, S) / (R, R) and (R, S) / (S, R)). The pairs of enantiomers (e.g., (S, S) / (R, R)) are mirror image stereoisomers of one another. The stereoisomers that are not mirror-imagesAttorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1(e.g., (S, S) and (R, S)) are diastereomers. The diastereoisomeric pairs can be separated by methods known to those skilled in the art, for example chromatography or crystallization and the individual enantiomers within each pair may be separated as described above. Unless otherwise specifically excluded, a disclosed compound includes each diastereoisomer of such compounds and mixtures thereof.

[0124] The compounds according to this disclosure may form prodrugs at hydroxyl or amino functionalities using alkoxy, amino acids, etc., groups as the prodrug forming moieties. For instance, the hydroxymethyl position may form mono-, di- or triphosphates and again these phosphates can form prodrugs. Preparations of such prodrug derivatives are discussed in various literature sources (examples are: Alexander et al., J. Med. Chem. 1988, 31, 318; Aligas-Martin et al., PCT WO 2000 / 041531, p. 30). The nitrogen function converted in preparing these derivatives is one (or more) of the nitrogen atoms of a compound of the disclosure.

[0125] ’‘Derivatives” of the compounds disclosed herein are pharmaceutically acceptable salts, prodrugs, deuterated forms, radioactively labeled forms, isomers, solvates and combinations thereof. The “combinations” mentioned in this context are refer to derivatives falling within at least two of the groups: pharmaceutically acceptable salts, prodrugs, deuterated forms, radioactively labeled forms, isomers, and solvates. Examples of radioactively labeled forms include compounds labeled with tritium, phosphorous-32, iodine-129, carbon-11, fluorine-18, and the like.

[0126] Compounds described herein comprise atoms in both their natural isotopic abundance and in non-natural abundance. The disclosed compounds can be isotopically-labeled or isotopically-substituted compounds identical to those described, but for the fact 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 typically found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds of the invention include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, fluorine and chlorine, such as2FI,3FI,13C,14C,15N,18O,170,35S,18F and36C1, respectively. Compounds further comprise prodrugs thereof, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts of said compounds or of said prodrugs which contain the aforementioned isotopes and / or other isotopes of other atoms are within the scope of this invention. Certain isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention, for example those into which radioactive isotopes such as3H and14C are incorporated, are useful in drug and / or substrate tissue distribution assays. Tritiated, i.e.,?H, and carbon-14, i.e.,14C,Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1isotopes are particularly preferred for their ease of preparation and detectability. Further, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium, i.e.,2H, can afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements and, hence, may be preferred in some circumstances.Isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention and prodrugs thereof can generally be prepared by cartying out the procedures below, by substituting a readily available isotopically labeled reagent for a non- isotopically labeled reagent.

[0127] The compounds described in the invention can be present as a solvate. In some cases, the solvent used to prepare the solvate is an aqueous solution, and the solvate is then often referred to as a hydrate. The compounds can be present as a hydrate, which can be obtained, for example, by crystallization from a solvent or from aqueous solution. In this connection, one, two, three or any arbitrary number of solvent or water molecules can combine with the compounds according to the invention to form solvates and hydrates. Unless stated to the contrary, the invention includes all such possible solvates.

[0128] The term “co-crystal” means a physical association of two or more molecules which owe their stability through non-covalent interaction. One or more components of this molecular complex provide a stable framework in the crystalline lattice. In certain instances, the guest molecules are incorporated in the crystalline lattice as anhydrates or solvates, see e.g. “Crystal Engineering of the Composition of Pharmaceutical Phases. Do Pharmaceutical Co-crystals Represent a New' Path to Improved Medicines?'’ Almarasson, O., et al., The Royal Society of Chemistry, 1889-1896, 2004. Examples of co-crystals include p-toluenesulfonic acid and benzenesulfonic acid.

[0129] It is also appreciated that certain compounds described herein can be present as an equilibrium of tautomers. For example, ketones w ith an a-hydrogen can exist in an equilibrium of the keto form and the enol form.keto form enol form amide form imidic acid form

[0130] Likewise, amides with an N-hydrogen can exist in an equilibrium of the amide form and the imidic acid form. As another example, pyrazoles can exist in two tautomeric forms, TV'-unsubstituted, 3-A3and A1-unsubstituted, 5-A3as shown below.Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1A4A4N-N N-NH HUnless stated to the contrary, the invention includes all such possible tautomers.

[0131] It is known that chemical substances form solids that are present in different states of order that are termed polymorphic forms or modifications. The different modifications of a polymorphic substance can differ greatly in their physical properties. The compounds according to the invention can be present in different polymorphic forms, with it being possible for particular modifications to be metastable. Unless stated to the contrary, the invention includes all such possible polymorphic forms.

[0132] In some aspects, a structure of a compound can be represented by a formula:which is understood to be equivalent to a formula:Rn(a)Rn(d)wherein n is typically an integer. That is, R” is understood to represent five independent substituents, R”(a), Rn(b), R"(c), R”(d), R”(e). By “independent substituents,’' it is meant that each R substituent can be independently defined. For example, if in one instance R"(a)is halogen, then R”(b)is not necessarily halogen in that instance.

A specific non-limiting example of the synthesis shown in Scheme 1A is provided below.Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1SCHEME IB.DCC, THF, rt1.91.12

[0295] In one aspect, compounds of type 1.12, and similar compounds, can be prepared according to reaction Scheme IB above. Thus, compounds of type 1.9 can be prepared by a coupling reaction between an appropriate carboxylic acid or sulfonyl chloride, e.g., 1.7 as shown above, and appropriate amine, e.g., 1.8 as shown above. Appropriate carboxylic acids, sulfonyl chlorides, and appropriate amines are commercially available or prepared by methods known to one skilled in the art. The coupling reaction is carried out in the presence of an appropriate coupling reagent, e.g, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), as shown above, in an appropriate solvent, e.g., tetrahydrofuran, at an appropriate temperature, e.g., room temperature. Compounds of type 1.10 can be prepared by deprotection of an appropriate amino protecting group, e.g., 1.09 as shown above. The deprotection is carried out in the presence of an appropriate cleaving agent, e.g, hydrogen chloride in dioxane. Compounds of type 1.12 can be prepared by copper catalysed cross coupling reaction of an appropriate amine derivative, e.g., 1.10 as shown above, with an appropriate aryl compound, e.g., 1.11, as shown above. The reaction is carried out in the presence of an appropriate copper catalyst, e.g, copper iodide as shown above, with an appropriate ligand, e.g., N1, N2-Attorney Docket No. 38235.0065P1bis(2,5-dimethyl-lH-pyrrol-l-yl)-ethanediamide, and an appropriate base, e.g., potassium carbonate as shown above, in an appropriate solvent, e.g., dimethylformamide, at an appropriate temperature, e.g., 100°C, for an appropriate period time, e.g., 6 hours. As can be appreciated by one skilled in the art. the above reaction provides an example of a generalized approach wherein compounds similar in structure to the specific reactants above (compounds similar to compounds of type 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, and 1.5), can be substituted in the reaction to provide substituted compounds similar to Formula 1.6.2.
