Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of medicinal chemistry, and in particular, it provides bicyclic compounds and analogues and derivatives thereof, the use thereof for inhibiting Werner Syndrome RecQ DNA helicase (WRN) and methods of treating disease using said compounds, in particular the use in treating cancer, and in particular the treatment of cancer characterized as microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) , including colorectal, gastric and endometrial cancer.
  • WRN Werner Syndrome RecQ DNA helicase
  • MSI-H microsatellite instability-high
  • dMMR mismatch repair deficient
  • the invention also provides the use of said compounds as research chemicals, intermediate compounds, combinations, processes and formulations.
  • WRN Werner Syndrome helicase
  • RecQ helicases and WRN are involved in multiple DNA processing steps, including DNA replication, double-strand break repair, transcription, and telomere maintenance, and are therefore considered as “genome guardians” (Chu and Hickson, 2009) .
  • Defects in DNA mismatch repair (MMR) promote microsatellite instability (MSI) , characterized by frequent insertion and/or deletion mutations in repetitive nucleotide sequences.
  • MSI-induced genomic instability causes the occurrence and development of various cancers, including colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, endometrial cancer, and ovarian cancer (Kim et al., 2013; Kunitomi, H et al., 2017) .
  • CRISPR-CAS9-mediated large-scale silencing revealed that RecQ DNA helicase WRN is selectively essential in MSI models but not necessary in microsatellite-stable models. Knocking out WRN in MSI models induces DNA double-strand breaks and selectively promotes cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest (Chan et al., 2019) .
  • the invention provides compounds, pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, pharmaceutical compositions thereof and combinations thereof, said compounds being inhibitors of Werner Syndrome RecQ DNA Helicase (WRN) .
  • WRN Werner Syndrome RecQ DNA Helicase
  • the invention further provides methods of treating, preventing, or ameliorating a disease or condition, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof an effective amount of a WRN inhibitor.
  • the invention also provides compounds, pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, pharmaceutical compositions thereof and combinations thereof, said compounds being useful for the treatment of cancer, in particular cancers characterized as microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) . Also provided are compounds that bind to, and/or inhibit WRN, and are therefore useful as research chemicals, e.g. as a chemical probe, and as tool compounds.
