Definitions

  • the present invention relates to organic compounds useful for therapy and/or prophylaxis in a mammal, and in particular to inhibition of KRAS mutant useful for treating cancers.
  • RAS is one of the most well-known proto-oncogenes. Approximately 30% of human cancers contain mutations in three most notable members, KRAS, HRAS, and NRAS, making them the most prevalent oncogenic drivers. KRAS mutations are generally associated with poor prognosis especially in colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, lung cancers. As the most frequently mutated RAS isoform, KRAS has been intensively studied in the past years.
  • G12C, G12D and G12V represent more than half of all K-RAS-driven cancers across colorectal cancer (CRC), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), lung adenocarcinoma (LU AD).
  • CRC colorectal cancer
  • PDAC pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
  • LU AD lung adenocarcinoma
  • KRAS wild-type amplifications are also found in around 7% of all KRAS-altered cancers (ovarian, esophagogastric, uterine), ranking among the top alterations.
  • All RAS proteins belong to a protein family of small GTPases that hydrolyze GTP to GDP.
  • KRAS is structurally divided into an effector binding lobe followed by the allosteric lobe and a carboxy-terminal region that is responsible for membrane anchoring.
  • the effector lobe comprises the P-loop, switch I, and switch II regions.
  • the switch I/II loops play a critical role in KRAS downstream signaling through mediating protein-protein interactions with effector proteins that include RAF in the mitogen -activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway or PI3K in the phosphatidylinositol 3 -kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) pathway.
  • MAPK mitogen -activated protein kinase
  • PI3K phosphatidylinositol 3 -kinase
  • AKT protein kinase B
  • KRAS protein switches between an inactive to an active form via binding to GTP and GDP, respectively.
  • GEFs guanine nucleotide exchange factors
  • SOS1 Son Of Sevenless Homolog 1
  • GAPs GTPase-activating proteins
  • the inactive RAS-GDP is converted to active RAS-GTP which directly binds to RAF RAS binding domains (RAF RBD ), recruiting RAF kinase family from cytoplasm to membranes, where they dimerize and become active.
  • RAF RBD RAF RAS binding domains
  • the activated RAF subsequently carries out a chain of phosphorylation reactions to its downstream Mitogen- activated protein kinase (MEK) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), and propagates the growth signal.
  • MEK Mitogen- activated protein kinase
  • ERK extracellular signal-regulated kinase
  • BRAF is most frequently mutated and remains the most potent activator of MEK.
  • RAS and RAF family members revealed distinct binding preferences, all RAFs possess the conserved RBD for forward transmission of MAPK singnaling, frequently used for characterize KRAS inhibition (e.g. KRAS-BRAF RBD herein).
  • mutations at positions 12, 13, 61, and 146 lead to a shift toward the active KRAS form through impairing nucleotide hydrolysis or activating nucleotide exchange, leading to hyper-activation of the MAPK pathway that results in tumorigenesis.
  • the present invention relates to novel compounds of formula (I),
  • the compound of current invention had good pharmacokinetic properties comparing with the reference compounds.
  • the compounds of this invention showed superior cancer cell inhibition and human hepatocyte stability.

Description

Macrocycle compounds for the treatment of cancer
The present invention relates to organic compounds useful for therapy and/or prophylaxis in a mammal, and in particular to inhibition of KRAS mutant useful for treating cancers.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
RAS is one of the most well-known proto-oncogenes. Approximately 30% of human cancers contain mutations in three most notable members, KRAS, HRAS, and NRAS, making them the most prevalent oncogenic drivers. KRAS mutations are generally associated with poor prognosis especially in colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, lung cancers. As the most frequently mutated RAS isoform, KRAS has been intensively studied in the past years. Among the most commonly occurring KRAS alleles (including G12D, G12V, G12C, G13D, G12R, G12A, G12S, Q61H, etc), G12C, G12D and G12V represent more than half of all K-RAS-driven cancers across colorectal cancer (CRC), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), lung adenocarcinoma (LU AD). Of note, KRAS wild-type amplifications are also found in around 7% of all KRAS-altered cancers (ovarian, esophagogastric, uterine), ranking among the top alterations.
All RAS proteins belong to a protein family of small GTPases that hydrolyze GTP to GDP. KRAS is structurally divided into an effector binding lobe followed by the allosteric lobe and a carboxy-terminal region that is responsible for membrane anchoring. The effector lobe comprises the P-loop, switch I, and switch II regions. The switch I/II loops play a critical role in KRAS downstream signaling through mediating protein-protein interactions with effector proteins that include RAF in the mitogen -activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway or PI3K in the phosphatidylinositol 3 -kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) pathway.
KRAS protein switches between an inactive to an active form via binding to GTP and GDP, respectively. Under physiological conditions, the transition between these two states is regulated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs), such as Son Of Sevenless Homolog 1 (SOS1), or GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) that involve catalyzing the exchange of GDP for GTP, potentiating intrinsic GTPase activity or accelerating RAS -mediated GTP hydrolysis. In response to extracellular stimuli, the inactive RAS-GDP is converted to active RAS-GTP which directly binds to RAF RAS binding domains (RAFRBD), recruiting RAF kinase family from cytoplasm to membranes, where they dimerize and become active. The activated RAF subsequently carries out a chain of phosphorylation reactions to its downstream Mitogen- activated protein kinase (MEK) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), and propagates the growth signal. Of the RAF family of protein kinases (three known isoforms ARAF, BRAF, CRAF/RAF1), BRAF is most frequently mutated and remains the most potent activator of MEK. Despite that individual RAS and RAF family members revealed distinct binding preferences, all RAFs possess the conserved RBD for forward transmission of MAPK singnaling, frequently used for characterize KRAS inhibition (e.g. KRAS-BRAFRBD herein). For KRAS, mutations at positions 12, 13, 61, and 146 lead to a shift toward the active KRAS form through impairing nucleotide hydrolysis or activating nucleotide exchange, leading to hyper-activation of the MAPK pathway that results in tumorigenesis.
Despite its well-recognized importance in cancer malignancy, continuous efforts in the past failed to develop approved therapies for KRAS mutant cancer until recently, the first selective drug AMG510 has fast approval as second line treatment in KRAS G12C driven non-small cell lung cancer (NSCEC). Nevertheless, the clinical acquired resistance to KRAS G12C inhibitors emerge rigorously with disease progresses after around 6 month of treatment. All of the mutations converge to reactivate RAS-MAPK signaling, with secondary RAS mutants at oncogenic hotspots (e.g. G12/G13/Q61) and within the switch II pocket (e.g. H95, R68, and Y96) have been observed; moreover, over 85% of all KRAS -mutated or wild-type amplified driven cancers still lack novel agents. Altogether, both the myriad of escape mechanism and various oncogenic alleles, highlight the urgent medical need for additional KRAS therapies. As such, we invented oral compounds that target and inhibit KRAS alleles for the treatment of KRAS mutant driven cancers.

X-ray crystallographic analysis of Compound G5. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION DEFINITIONS The term “C1-6alkyl” denotes a saturated, linear or branched chain alkyl group containing 1 to 6, particularly 1 to 4 carbon atoms, for example methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl and the like. Particular “C1-6alkyl” groups are methyl, ethyl and n-propyl. The term “halogen” and “halo” are used interchangeably herein and denote fluoro, chloro, bromo, or iodo. The term “haloC1-6alkyl” denotes a C1-6alkyl group wherein at least one of the hydrogen atoms of the C1-6alkyl group have been replaced by same or different halogen atoms. Examples of haloC1-6alkyl include fluoro, difluoro- or chloro(fluoro)-methyl, -ethyl or -propyl, for example fluoromethyl, difluoropropyl, difluoromethyl, difluoroethyl, chloro(fluoro)methyl, trifluoroethyl, or trifluoromethyl. The term “C3-7cycloalkyl” denotes a monovalent saturated monocyclic or bicyclic hydrocarbon group of 3 to 7 ring carbon atoms. Bicyclic means consisting of two saturated carbocycles having one or more carbon atoms in common. Examples for monocyclic cycloalkyl are cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl or cycloheptyl. Examples for bicyclic cycloalkyl are bicyclo[1.1.0]butyl, bicyclo[2.2.1]heptanyl, bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanyl, or bicyclo[2.2.2]octanyl. The term “protecting group” denotes the group which selectively blocks a reactive site in a multifunctional compound such that a chemical reaction can be carried out selectively at another unprotected reactive site in the meaning conventionally associated with it in synthetic chemistry. Protecting groups can be removed at the appropriate point. Exemplary protecting groups are amino-protecting groups, carboxy-protecting groups or hydroxy-protecting groups. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salts” denotes salts which are not biologically or otherwise undesirable. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include both acid and base addition salts. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt” denotes those pharmaceutically acceptable salts formed with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, carbonic acid, phosphoric acid, and organic acids selected from aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic, araliphatic, heterocyclic, carboxylic, and sulfonic classes of organic acids such as formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, gluconic acid, lactic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, malic acid, maleic acid, maloneic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, aspartic acid, ascorbic acid, glutamic acid, anthranilic acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, embonic acid, phenylacetic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, and salicyclic acid.

PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS AND ADMINISTRATION Another embodiment provides pharmaceutical compositions or medicaments containing the compounds of the invention and a therapeutically inert carrier, diluent or excipient, as well as methods of using the compounds of the invention to prepare such compositions and medicaments. In one example, compounds of formula (I) may be formulated by mixing at ambient temperature at the appropriate pH, and at the desired degree of purity, with physiologically acceptable carriers, i.e., carriers that are non-toxic to recipients at the dosages and concentrations employed into a galenical administration form. The pH of the formulation depends mainly on the particular use and the concentration of compound, but preferably ranges anywhere from about 3 to about 8. In one example, a compound of formula (I) is formulated in an acetate buffer, at pH 5. In another embodiment, the compounds of formula (I) are sterile. The compound may be stored, for example, as a solid or amorphous composition, as a lyophilized formulation or as an aqueous solution. Compositions are formulated, dosed, and administered in a fashion consistent with good medical practice. Factors for consideration in this context include the particular disorder being treated, the particular mammal being treated, the clinical condition of the individual patient, the cause of the disorder, the site of delivery of the agent, the method of administration, the scheduling of administration, and other factors known to medical practitioners. The “effective amount” of the compound to be administered will be governed by such considerations, and is the minimum amount necessary to inhibit mutant RAS (e.g. KRAS G12C) interaction with RAF, blocking the oncogenic MAPK signaling. For example, such amount may be below the amount that is toxic to normal cells, or the mammal as a whole. In one example, the pharmaceutically effective amount of the compound of the invention administered parenterally per dose will be in the range of about 0.1 to 1000 mg/kg, alternatively about 0.1 to 1000 mg/kg of patient body weight per day, with the typical initial range of compound used being 0.3 to 15 mg/kg/day. In another embodiment, oral unit dosage forms, such as tablets and capsules, preferably contain from about 1 to about 1000 mg of the compound of the invention. The compounds of the invention may be administered by any suitable means, including oral, topical (including buccal and sublingual), rectal, vaginal, transdermal, parenteral, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, intrapulmonary, intradermal, intrathecal and epidural and intranasal, and, if desired for local treatment, intralesional administration. Parenteral infusions include intramuscular, intravenous, intraarterial, intraperitoneal, or subcutaneous administration. The compounds of the present invention may be administered in any convenient administrative form, e.g., tablets, powders, capsules, solutions, dispersions, suspensions, syrups, sprays, suppositories, gels, emulsions, patches, etc. Such compositions may contain components conventional in pharmaceutical preparations, e.g., diluents, carriers, pH modifiers, sweeteners, bulking agents, and further active agents. A typical formulation is prepared by mixing a compound of the present invention and a carrier or excipient. Suitable carriers and excipients are well known to those skilled in the art and are described in detail in, e.g., Ansel, Howard C., et al., Ansel’s Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms and Drug Delivery Systems. Philadelphia: Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2004; Gennaro, Alfonso R., et al. Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy. Philadelphia: Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2000; and Rowe, Raymond C. Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients. Chicago, Pharmaceutical Press, 2005. The formulations may also include one or more buffers, stabilizing agents, surfactants, wetting agents, lubricating agents, emulsifiers, suspending agents, preservatives, antioxidants, opaquing agents, glidants, processing aids, colorants, sweeteners, perfuming agents, flavoring agents, diluents and other known additives to provide an elegant presentation of the drug (i.e., a compound of the present invention or pharmaceutical composition thereof) or aid in the manufacturing of the pharmaceutical product (i.e., medicament). An example of a suitable oral dosage form is a tablet containing about 1 to 1000 mg of the compound of the invention compounded with about 1 to 1000 mg anhydrous lactose, about 1 to 1000 mg sodium croscarmellose, about 1 to 1000 mg polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) K30, and about 1 to 1000 mg magnesium stearate. The powdered ingredients are first mixed together and then mixed with a solution of the PVP. The resulting composition can be dried, granulated, mixed with the magnesium stearate and compressed to tablet form using conventional equipment. An example of an aerosol formulation can be prepared by dissolving the compound, for example 5 to 400mg, of the invention in a suitable buffer solution, e.g. a phosphate buffer, adding a tonicifier, e.g. a salt such sodium chloride, if desired. The solution may be filtered, e.g., using a 0.2 micron filter, to remove impurities and contaminants. An embodiment, therefore, includes a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I), or a stereoisomer or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In a further embodiment includes a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I), or a stereoisomer or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient. Another embodiment includes a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I) for use in the treatment of mutant KRAS-driven cancers. Another embodiment includes a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of Formula (I) for use in the treatment of mutant KRAS-driven cancers. The following composition A and B illustrate typical compositions of the present invention, but serve merely as representative thereof. Composition A A compound of the present invention can be used in a manner known per se as the active ingredient for the production of tablets of the following composition: Per tablet Active ingredient 200 mg Microcrystalline cellulose 155 mg Corn starch 25 mg Talc 25 mg Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose 20 mg 425 mg Composition B A compound of the present invention can be used in a manner known per se as the active ingredient for the production of capsules of the following composition: Per capsule Active ingredient 100.0 mg Corn starch 20.0 mg Lactose 95.0 mg Talc 4.5 mg Magnesium stearate 0.5 mg 220.0 mg INDICATIONS AND METHODS OF TREATMENT The compounds of the invention induce a new binding pocket in KRAS by driving formation of a high affinity tri-complex between KRAS protein and the widely expressed cyclophilin A (CYPA), which inhibit KRAS interaction with downstream effectors, such as RAF and PI3K. Accordingly, the compounds of the invention are useful for inhibiting the propagating oncogenic MAPK and PI3K signaling, reducing cell proliferation, in particular cancer cells. Compounds of the invention are useful for termination of RAS signaling in cells that express RAS mutant, e.g. KRAS mutation driven pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, lung cancer, esophageal cancer, gallbladder cancer, melanoma ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer, etc. Alternatively, compounds of the invention are useful for termination of RAS signaling in malignant solid tumor where the oncogenic role of KRAS mutation is reinforced by dysregulation or mutation of effector pathways as MAPK, PI3K-AKT-mTOR (Mammalian target of rapamycin) driven signaling, for targeted therapy in pancreatic adenocarcinoma, colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, etc. Another embodiment includes a method of treating or preventing cancer in a mammal in need of such treatment, wherein the method comprises administering to said mammal a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I), a stereoisomer, tautomer or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
