  • Surprisingly, it has now been found that the compounds of formula I, have advantageous pharmacological properties and inhibit the activity of the lipid kinases, such as the PI3-kinase and/or members of the PI3-kinase-related protein kinase family (also called PIKK and include DNA-PK, ATM, ATR, hSMG-1 and mTOR), such as the DNA protein-kinase, and may be used to treat disease or disorders which depend on the activity of said kinases.
  • Having regard to their inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase enzymes, compounds of formula (I) in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, are useful in the treatment of conditions which are mediated by the activation of the PI3 kinase enzymes, such as proliferative, inflammatory or allergic conditions, or disorders commonly occurring in connection with transplantation.
  • Treatment in accordance with the invention may be symptomatic or prophylactic.
  • Preferred is a compound of formula (I) for use in the treatment of a proliferative disease selected from a benign or malignant tumor, carcinoma of the brain, kidney, liver, adrenal gland, bladder, breast, stomach, gastric tumors, ovaries, colon, rectum, prostate, pancreas, lung, vagina or thyroid, sarcoma, glioblastomas, multiple myeloma or gastrointestinal cancer, especially colon carcinoma or colorectal adenoma or a tumor of the neck and head, an epidermal hyperproliferation, psoriasis, prostate hyperplasia, a neoplasia, a neoplasia of epithelial character, lymphomas, a mammary carcinoma or a leukemia. Other diseases include Cowden syndrome, Lhermitte-Dudos disease and Bannayan-Zonana syndrome, or diseases in which the PI3K/PKB pathway is aberrantly activated.
  • Compounds according to the invention are useful in the treatment of inflammatory or obstructive airways diseases, resulting, for example, in reduction of tissue damage, airways inflammation, bronchial hyperreactivity, remodelling or disease progression. Inflammatory or obstructive airways diseases to which the present invention is applicable include asthma of whatever type or genesis including both intrinsic (non-allergic) asthma and extrinsic (allergic) asthma, mild asthma, moderate asthma, severe asthma, bronchitic asthma, exercise-induced asthma, occupational asthma and asthma induced following bacterial infection. Treatment of asthma is also to be understood as embracing treatment of subjects, e.g. of less than 4 or 5 years of age, exhibiting wheezing symptoms and diagnosed or diagnosable as “wheezy infants”, an established patient category of major medical concern and now often identified as incipient or early-phase asthmatics. (For convenience this particular asthmatic condition is referred to as “wheezy-infant syndrome”.)
  • Prophylactic efficacy in the treatment of asthma will be evidenced by reduced frequency or severity of symptomatic attack, e.g. of acute asthmatic or bronchoconstrictor attack, improvement in lung function or improved airways hyperreactivity. It may further be evidenced by reduced requirement for other, symptomatic therapy, i.e. therapy for or intended to restrict or abort symptomatic attack when it occurs, for example anti-inflammatory (e.g. corticosteroid) or bronchodilatory. Prophylactic benefit in asthma may in particular be apparent in subjects prone to “morning dipping”. “Morning dipping” is a recognised asthmatic syndrome, common to a substantial percentage of asthmatics and characterised by asthma attack, e.g. between the hours of about 4 to 6 am, i.e. at a time normally substantially distant form any previously administered symptomatic asthma therapy.
  • Compounds according to formula I can be used for other inflammatory or obstructive airways diseases and conditions to which the present invention is applicable and include acute lung injury (ALI), adult/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), chronic obstructive pulmonary, airways or lung disease (COPD, COAD or COLD), including chronic bronchitis or dyspnea associated therewith, emphysema, as well as exacerbation of airways hyperreactivity consequent to other drug therapy, in particular other inhaled drug therapy. The invention is also applicable to the treatment of bronchitis of whatever type or genesis including, e.g., acute, arachidic, catarrhal, croupus, chronic or phthinoid bronchitis. Further inflammatory or obstructive airways diseases to which the present invention is applicable include pneumoconiosis (an inflammatory, commonly occupational, disease of the lungs, frequently accompanied by airways obstruction, whether chronic or acute, and occasioned by repeated inhalation of dusts) of whatever type or genesis, including, for example, aluminosis, anthracosis, asbestosis, chalicosis, ptilosis, siderosis, silicosis, tabacosis and byssinosis.
  • Having regard to their anti-inflammatory activity, in particular in relation to inhibition of eosinophil activation, compounds of the invention are also useful in the treatment of eosinophil related disorders, e.g. eosinophilia, in particular eosinophil related disorders of the airways (e.g. involving morbid eosinophilic infiltration of pulmonary tissues) including hypereosinophilia as it effects the airways and/or lungs as well as, for example, eosinophil-related disorders of the airways consequential or concomitant to Loffler's syndrome, eosinophilic pneumonia, parasitic (in particular metazoan) infestation (including tropical eosinophilia), bronchopulmonary aspergillosis, polyarteritis nodosa (including Churg-Strauss syndrome), eosinophilic granuloma and eosinophil-related disorders affecting the airways occasioned by drug-reaction.
  • Compounds of the invention are also useful in the treatment of inflammatory or allergic conditions of the skin, for example psoriasis, contact dermatitis, atopic dermatitis, alopecia greata, erythema multiforma, dermatitis herpetiformis, scleroderma, vitiligo, hypersensitivity angiitis, urticaria, bullous pemphigoid, lupus erythematosus, pemphisus, epidermolysis bullosa acquisita, and other inflammatory or allergic conditions of the skin.
  • Compounds of the invention may also be used for the treatment of other diseases or conditions, such as diseases or conditions having an inflammatory component, for example, treatment of diseases and conditions of the eye such as conjunctivitis, keratoconjunctivitis sicca, and vernal conjunctivitis, diseases affecting the nose including allergic rhinitis, and inflammatory disease in which autoimmune reactions are implicated or having an autoimmune component or aetiology, including autoimmune haematological disorders (e.g. haemolytic anaemia, aplastic anaemia, pure red cell anaemia and idiopathic thrombocytopenia), systemic lupus erythematosus, polychondritis, sclerodoma, Wegener granulamatosis, dermatomyositis, chronic active hepatitis, myasthenia gravis, Steven-Johnson syndrome, idiopathic sprue, autoimmune inflammatory bowel disease (e.g. ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease), endocrine opthalmopathy, Grave's disease, sarcoidosis, alveolitis, chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, multiple sclerosis, primary billiary cirrhosis, uveitis (anterior and posterior), keratoconjunctivitis sicca and vernal keratoconjunctivitis, interstitial lung fibrosis, psoriatic arthritis and glomerulonephritis (with and without nephrotic syndrome, e.g. including idiopathic nephrotic syndrome or minal change nephropathy).
  • Furthermore, the invention provides the use of a compound according to the definitions herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or a hydrate or solvate thereof for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of a proliferative disease, an inflammatory disease or an obstructive respiratory disease, or a disorder commonly occurring in connection with transplantation.
  • The efficacy of the compounds of formula I and salts thereof as PI3 kinase inhibitors can be demonstrated as follows:
  • The kinase reaction was performed in a final volume of 50 μL per well of a half area COSTAR, 96 well plate. The final concentrations of ATP and phosphatidyl inositol in the assay were 5 μM and 6 μg/mL respectively. The reaction was started by the addition of PI3 kinase p110β. The components of the assay were added per well as follows:
      • 10 μL test compound in 5% DMSO per well in columns 2-1.
      • Total activity was determined by addition 10 μL of 5% vol/vol DMSO in the first 4 wells of column 1 and the last 4 wells of column 12.
      • The background was determined by addition of 10 μM control compound to the last 4 wells of column 1 and the first 4 wells of column 12.
      • 2 mL ‘Assay mix’ were prepared per plate:
        • 1.912 mL of HEPES assay buffer
        • 8.33 μL of 3 mM stock of ATP giving a final concentration of 5 μM per well
        • 1 μL of [33P]ATP on the activity date giving 0.05 μCi per well

  • Some of the compounds show a certain level of selectivity against the different paralogs PI3K alpha, gamma and delta.

  • The assay was done using the kit V7870 from Promega, that quantitated DNA-dependent protein kinase activity, both in purified enzyme preparations and in cell nuclear extracts. DNA-PK is a nuclear serine/threonine protein kinase that requires double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) for activity. The binding of dsDNA to the enzyme results in the formation of the active enzyme and also brings the substrate closer to the enzyme, allowing the phosphorylation reaction to proceed.
  • DNA-PK X5 reaction buffer (250 mM HEPES, 500 mM KCl, 50 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.5 mM EDTA, 5 mM DTT, pH to 7.5 with KOH) was diluted 1/5 in deionised water and BSA (stock=10 mg/ml) was added to a final concentration of 0.1 mg/ml.
  • The activation buffer was made of 100 μg/ml of calf thymus DNA in control buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 1 mM EDTA (pH 8.0)).
  • Per tube, the reaction mix was composed of: 2.5 μl of activation or control buffers, 5 μl of X5 reaction buffer, 2.5 μl of p53-derived biotinylated peptide substrate (stock=4 mM), 0.2 μl of BSA (stock at 10 mg/ml) and 5 μl of [γ-32P] ATP (5 μl of 0.5 mM cold ATP+0.05 μl of Redivue [γ-32P] ATP=Amersham AA0068-250 μCi, 3000 Ci/mmol, 10 μCi/μl).
  • The DNA-PK enzyme (Promega V5811, concentration=100 U/μL) was diluted 1/10 in X1 reaction buffer and kept on ice until imminent use. 10.8 μl of the diluted enzyme was incubated with 1.2 μl of 100 μM compounds (diluted 1/100 in water from 10 mM stock in neat DMSO) for 10 minutes, at room temperature. During that time, 15.2 μl of the reaction mix was added to screw-capped tubes, behind Perspex glass. 9.8 μl of the enzyme was then transferred to the tubes containing the reaction mix and after 5 minutes incubation, at 30° C., the reaction was stopped by adding 12.5 μl of termination buffer (7.5 M guanidine hydrochloride).
  • After mixing well, a 10 μl aliquot of each tube was spotted onto a SAM2R biotin capture membrane, which was left to dry for a few minutes. The membrane was then washed extensively to remove the excess free [γ-32P] ATP and nonbiotinylated proteins: once for 30 seconds in 200 ml of 2M NaCl, 3 times for 2 minutes each in 200 ml of 2M NaCl, 4 times for 2 minutes each in 2M NaCl in 1% H3PO4 and twice for 30 seconds each in 100 ml of deionised water. The membrane was then left to air-dry at room temperature for 30-60 minutes.
  • Each membrane square was separated using forceps and scissors and placed into a scintillation vial, after which 8 ml of scintillation liquid (Flo-Scint 6013547 from Perkin-Elmer) was added. The amount of 32P incorporated into the DNA-PK biotinylated peptide substrate was then determined by liquid scintillation counting.
  • The efficacy of the compounds of the invention in blocking the activation of the PI3K/PKB pathway can be demonstrated in cellular settings as follows:
  • Protocol for the detection of phospho-PKB and phospho-GSK3β.
  • On day 1, U87MG cells (ATCC No. HTB-14) are trypsinized, counted in a Neubauer chamber, and diluted in fresh complete RPMI 1640 medium to a final concentration of 6×105 cells/mL. Ten (10) cm tissue culture dishes are then loaded with 10 mL of the cell suspension, and incubated for 18 hours.
  • On day 2, the medium in plates is discarded and replaced by complete RPMI 1640 medium containing either DMSO or inhibitors [compounds of formula (I)]. After 30 minutes of contact, the medium is quickly removed by aspiration and the cells rinsed twice with pre-cooled PBS. Cells are then placed on ice and immediately lysed. Protein samples are then resolved by SDS-PAGE and transferred to Immbilon-P membrane for detection of levels of endogenous GSK3β, PKB, PhosphoT308-PKB and PhosphoS9-GSK3β by western-blotting. Membranes are then dried and covered with polyethylene film, and chemiluminescence measured in a MultiImage™ Light Cabinet (Alpha Innotech Corp) driven with the Fluor Chem™ software (Alpha Innotech Corp).
  • The data are analyzed with AlphaEasy software, plotted as % of control (cells treated with DMSO in identical experimental conditions used for kinase inhibitors) with SigmaPlot® (SSPI Inc, version 7) as a regression curve (Four Parameter Logistic Cubic) and IC50 values are determined accordingly.
  • There are also experiments to demonstrate the antitumor activity of compounds of the formula (I) in vivo.
  • Female Harlan athymic nu/nu mice with s.c. transplanted human glioblastoms U87MG tumors can be used to determine the anti-tumor activity of PI3 kinase inhibitors. On day 0, with the animals under peroral forene narcosis, a tumor fragment of approximately 25 mg is placed under the skin on the animals' left flank and the small incised wound is closed by means of suture clips. When tumors reaches a volume of 100 mm3 the mice are divided at random into groups of 6-8 animals and treatment commences. The treatment is carried out for a 2-3 weeks period with peroral, intravenous or intra-peritoneal administration once daily (or less frequently) of a compound of formula (I) in a suitable vehicle at defined doses. The tumors are measured twice a week with a slide gauge and the volume of the tumors is calculated.
  • As an alternative to cell line U87MG, other cell lines may also be used in the same manner, for example,

Briefly, spleen cells from CBA and BALB/c mice (1.6×105 cells from each strain per well in flat bottom tissue culture microtiter plates, 3.2×105 in total) are incubated in RPMI medium containing 10% FCS, 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin (Gibco BRL, Basel, Switzerland), 50 μM 2-mercaptoethanol (Fluka, Buchs, Switzerland) and serially diluted compounds. Seven three-fold dilution steps in duplicates per test compound are performed. After four days of incubation 1 μCi 3H-thymidine is added. Cells are harvested after an additional five-hour incubation period, and incorporated 3H-thymidine is determined according to standard procedures. Background values (low control) of the MLR are the proliferation of BALB/c cells alone. Low controls are subtracted from all values. High controls without any sample are taken as 100% proliferation. Percent inhibition by the samples is calculated, and the concentrations required for 50% inhibition (IC50 values) are determined. In this assay, the compounds of the invention have IC50 values in the range of 1 nM to 10 μM, preferably from 10 nM to 100 nM.

  • Detailed Description of the Process:
  • In the more detailed description of the process below, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 and n are as defined for compounds of formula I, unless otherwise indicated.
  • The reaction of compound of formula II and III is preferably carried out under the conditions of a Suzuki-reaction, preferably in a mixture of a polar aprotic solvent such as DMF and water in the presence of a catalyst, especially a noble metal catalyst, such as palladium (II), preferable bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (II) dichloride; in the presence of a base such as potassium carbonate.
  • Protecting Groups
  • If one or more other functional groups, for example carboxy, hydroxy, amino, or mercapto, are or need to be protected in a compound of formulae II or III, because they should not take part in the reaction, these are such groups as are usually used in the synthesis of peptide compounds, and also of cephalosporins and penicillins, as well as nucleic acid derivatives and sugars.
  • The protecting groups may already be present in precursors and should protect the functional groups concerned against unwanted secondary reactions, such as acylations, etherifications, esterifications, oxidations, solvolysis, and similar reactions. It is a characteristic of protecting groups that they lend themselves readily, i.e. without undesired secondary reactions, to removal, typically by acetolysis, protonolysis, solvolysis, reduction, photolysis or also by enzyme activity, for example under conditions analogous to physiological conditions, and that they are not present in the end-products. The specialist knows, or can easily establish, which protecting groups are suitable with the reactions mentioned hereinabove and hereinafter.
  • The protection of such functional groups by such protecting groups, the protecting groups themselves, and their removal reactions are described for example in standard reference works, such as J. F. W. McOmie, “Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry”, Plenum Press, London and New York 1973, in T. W. Greene, “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, Wiley, New York 1981, in “The Peptides”; Volume 3 (editors: E. Gross and J. Meienhofer), Academic Press, London and New York 1981, in “Methoden der organischen Chemie” (Methods of organic chemistry), Houben Weyl, 4th edition, Volume 15/I, Georg Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart 1974, in H.-D. Jakubke and H. Jescheit, “Aminosäuren, Peptide, Proteine” (Amino acids, peptides, proteins), Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, Deerfield Beach, and Basel 1982, and in Jochen Lehmann, “Chemie der Kohlenhydrate: Monosaccharide and Derivate” (Chemistry of carbohydrates: monosaccharides and derivatives), Georg Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart 1974.
  • Additional Process Steps
  • In the additional process steps, carried out as desired, functional groups of the starting compounds which should not take part in the reaction may be present in unprotected form or may be protected for example by one or more of the protecting groups mentioned here-inabove under “protecting groups”. The protecting groups are then wholly or partly removed according to one of the methods described there.
  • Salts of a compound of formula I with a salt-forming group may be prepared in a manner known per se. Acid addition salts of compounds of formula I may thus be obtained by treatment with an acid or with a suitable anion exchange reagent. A salt with two acid molecules (for example a dihalogenide of a compound of formula I) may also be converted into a salt with one acid molecule per compound (for example a monohalogenide); this may be done by heating to a melt, or for example by heating as a solid under a high vacuum at elevated temperature, for example from 130 to 170° C., one molecule of the acid being expelled per molecule of a compound of formula I.
  • Salts can usually be converted to free compounds, e.g. by treating with suitable basic compounds, for example with alkali metal carbonates, alkali metal hydrogencarbonates, or alkali metal hydroxides, typically potassium carbonate or sodium hydroxide.
  • Stereoisomeric mixtures, e.g. mixtures of diastereomers, can be separated into their corresponding isomers in a manner known per se by means of suitable separation methods. Diastereomeric mixtures for example may be separated into their individual diastereomers by means of fractionated crystallization, chromatography, solvent distribution, and similar procedures. This separation may take place either at the level of a starting compound or in a compound of formula I itself. Enantiomers may be separated through the formation of diastereomeric salts, for example by salt formation with an enantiomer-pure chiral acid, or by means of chromatography, for example by HPLC, using chromatographic substrates with chiral ligands.
  • A compound of the formula I, wherein R2 is O, can be converted into the respective compound wherein R2 is S, for example, by using an appropriate sulfur compound, e.g. using reaction with Lawesson's reagent (2,4-bis-(4-methoxyphenyl)2,4-dithioxo-1,2,3,4-dithiaphosphetan) in an appropriate solvent such as dioxane.
  • It should be emphasized that reactions analogous to the conversions mentioned in this chapter may also take place at the level of appropriate intermediates.
  • General Process Conditions
  • All process steps described here can be carried out under known reaction conditions, preferably under those specifically mentioned, in the absence of or usually in the presence of solvents or diluents, preferably such as are inert to the reagents used and able to dissolve these, in the absence or presence of catalysts, condensing agents or neutralising agents, for example ion exchangers, typically cation exchangers, for example in the H+ form, depending on the type of reaction and/or reactants at reduced, normal, or elevated temperature, for example in the range from −100° C. to about 190° C., preferably from about −80° C. to about 150° C., for example at −80 to −60° C., at room temperature, at −20 to 40° C. or at the boiling point of the solvent used, under atmospheric pressure or in a closed vessel, where appropriate under pressure, and/or in an inert atmosphere, for example under argon or nitro-gen.
  • Salts may be present in all starting compounds and transients, if these contain salt-forming groups. Salts may also be present during the reaction of such compounds, provided the reaction is not thereby disturbed.
