Definitions

  • the present disclosure is directed to small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
  • RA Rheumatoid arthritis
  • RA is a chronic, autoimmune, inflammatory disorder that affects the lining of the joints, causing painful swelling that can result in bone erosion and joint deformation.
  • RA presents a significant societal impact –it has a relatively high prevalence (about 1%of the United States population suffers from RA) , produces irreversible joint damage, and has a widespread occurrence of co-morbities. While many patients benefit from currently marketed biologic and small molecule medicines, most patients still suffered from the chronic pain and inflammation of the disease.
  • Cancer in particular mantle cell lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, macroglobulinemia, and multiple myeloma, continues to afflict patients. Alternative, effective treatments of cancer are still needed.
  • tyrosine kinase Human Bruton’s tyrosine kinase ( “Btk” ) is a ⁇ 76 kDa protein belonging to the Tec family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases.
  • Tec kinases form the second largest family of cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases in mammalian cells, which consists of four other members in addition to BTK: the eponymous kinase TEC, ITK, TXK/RLK and BMX.
  • Tec kinases are evolutionarily conserved throughout vertebrates. They are related to, but structurally distinct from, the larger Src and Syk kinase families. Tec family proteins are abundantly expressed in hematopoietic tissues and play important roles in the growth and differentiation of blood and endothelial cells in mammals.
  • Btk inhibition has the potential to modulate biology associated with B cells, macrophages, mast cells, osteoclasts, and platelet microparticles.
  • the role of B cells in RA is supported by the therapeutic benefit exhibited in the clinic upon B cell depletion with Rituximab TM . Since auto-reactive antibodies play such a critical role in synovial inflammation, therapeutic modulation of the B cell compartment is an attractive mechanism to treat early RA and potentially modulate disease at the earliest stages.
  • Btk inhibitors block antigen receptor-induced signaling at the earliest stages and subsequent B cell proliferation.
  • critical aspects of antigen presentation function such as antigen internalization and upregulation of co-stimulation molecules such as CD80 and CD86 and MHC-IIs can be blocked with Btk inhibitors (Kenny, E.F., et al. (2013) PLoS One 8, e74103) .
  • Btk inhibitors exhibit efficacy in a variety of rodent arthritis models, whether dosed prophylactically or fully therapeutically (Di Paolo, J.A., et al.
  • Btk inhibition decreases autoantibody production and isotype switching, as well as epitope spreading from bovine collagen to rodent collagen.
  • Btk inhibition shows significant reductions in inflammation scores as assessed by inflamed paw histopathology.
  • Btk is a clinically validated target for the treatment of hematological malignancies, with the irreversible covalent inhibitor (ICI) ibrutinib approved for treatment of B cell malignancies such as mantle cell lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and macroglobulinemia (Hendriks, R.W., et al.
