INTRODUCTION
Provided herein are compounds, compositions thereof and uses therewith for treating Spinal Muscular Atrophy.
BACKGROUND
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), in its broadest sense, describes a collection of inherited and acquired central nervous system (CNS) diseases characterized by progressive motor neuron loss in the spinal cord and brainstem causing muscle weakness and muscle atrophy. The most common form of SMA is caused by mutations in the Survival Motor Neuron (SMN) gene and manifests over a wide range of severity affecting infants through adults (Crawford and Pardo, Neurobiol. Dis., 1996, 3:97).
Infantile SMA is the most severe form of this neurodegenerative disorder. Symptoms include muscle weakness, poor muscle tone, weak cry, limpness or a tendency to flop, difficulty sucking or swallowing, accumulation of secretions in the lungs or throat, feeding difficulties, and increased susceptibility to respiratory tract infections. The legs tend to be weaker than the arms and developmental milestones, such as lifting the head or sitting up, cannot be reached. In general, the earlier the symptoms appear, the shorter the lifespan. As the motor neuron cells deteriorate, symptoms appear shortly afterward. The severe forms of the disease are fatal and all forms have no known cure. The course of SMA is directly related to the rate of motor neuron cell deterioration and the resulting severity of weakness. Infants with a severe form of SMA frequently succumb to respiratory disease due to weakness in the muscles that support breathing. Children with milder forms of SMA live much longer, although they may need extensive medical support, especially those at the more severe end of the spectrum. The clinical spectrum of SMA disorders has been divided into the following five groups.
(a) Type 0 SMA (In Utero SMA) is the most severe form of the disease and begins before birth. Usually, the first symptom of Type 0 SMA is reduced movement of the fetus that can first be observed between 30 and 36 weeks of pregnancy. After birth, these newborns have little movement and have difficulties with swallowing and breathing.
(b) Type 1 SMA (Infantile SMA or Werdnig-Hoffmann disease) typically presents symptoms between 0 and 6 months. This form of SMA is also very severe. Patients never achieve the ability to sit, and death usually occurs within the first 2 years without ventilatory support.
(c) Type 2 SMA (Intermediate SMA) has an age of onset at 7-18 months. Patients achieve the ability to sit unsupported, but never stand or walk unaided. Prognosis in this group is largely dependent on the degree of respiratory involvement.
(d) Type 3 SMA (Juvenile SMA or Kugelberg-Welander disease) is generally diagnosed after 18 months. Type 3 SMA individuals are able to walk independently at some point during their disease course but often become wheelchair-bound during youth or adulthood.
(e) Type 4 SMA (Adult onset SMA). Weakness usually begins in late adolescence in the tongue, hands, or feet, then progresses to other areas of the body. The course of adult SMA is much slower and has little or no impact on life expectancy.
The SMN gene has been mapped by linkage analysis to a complex region in chromosome 5q. In humans, this region contains an approximately 500 thousand base pairs (kb) inverted duplication resulting in two nearly identical copies of the SMN gene. SMA is caused by an inactivating mutation or deletion of the telomeric copy of the gene (SMN1) in both chromosomes, resulting in the loss of SMN1 gene function. However, all patients retain the centromeric copy of the gene (SMN2), and the copy number of the SMN2 gene in SMA patients generally correlates inversely with the disease severity; i.e., patients with less severe SMA have more copies of SMN2. Nevertheless, SMN2 is unable to compensate completely for the loss of SMN1 function due to alternative splicing of exon 7 caused by a translationally silent C to T mutation in exon 7. As a result, the majority of transcripts produced from SMN2 lack exon 7 (SMN2 Δ7), and encode a truncated Smn protein that has an impaired function and is rapidly degraded.
The Smn protein is thought to play a role in RNA processing and metabolism, having a well characterized function of mediating the assembly of a specific class of RNA-protein complexes termed snRNPs. Smn may have other functions in motor neurons, however its role in preventing the selective degeneration of motor neurons is not well established.
In most cases, SMA is diagnosed based on clinical symptoms and by the absence of all copies of exon 7 in the SMN1 gene, as determined by genetic testing. However, in approximately 5% of cases, SMA is caused by mutations other than a deletion of the entire SMN1 gene or other than a deletion of the entire exon 7 in the SMN1 gene, some known and others not yet defined. In such cases, when the SMN1 gene test is not feasible or the SMN1 gene sequence does not show any abnormality, other tests such as an electromyography (EMG) or muscle biopsy may be indicated.
Medical care for SMA patients at present is limited to supportive therapy including respiratory, nutritional and rehabilitation care; there is no drug known to address the underlying cause of the disease. Current treatment for SMA consists of prevention and management of the secondary effects of chronic motor unit loss. The major management issue in Type 1 SMA is the prevention and early treatment of pulmonary problems, which are the primary cause of death in the majority of the cases. While some infants afflicted with SMA grow to be adults, those with Type 1 SMA have a life expectancy of less than two years.
Several mouse models of SMA have been developed. In particular, the SMNΔ7 model (Le et al., Hum. Mol. Genet., 2005, 14:845) carries both the SMN2 gene and several copies of the SMN2Δ7 cDNA and recapitulates many of the phenotypic features of Type 1 SMA. The SMNΔ7 model can be used for both SMN2 expression studies as well as the evaluation of motor function and survival. The C/C-allele mouse model (Jackson Laboratory strain No.: 008714) provides a less severe SMA disease model, with mice having reduced levels of both SMN2 full length (SMN2 FL) mRNA and Smn protein. The C/C-allele mouse phenotype has the SMN2 gene and a hybrid mSmn1-SMN2 gene that undergoes alternative splicing, but does not have overt muscle weakness. The C/C-allele mouse model is used for SMN2 expression studies.
As a result of improved understanding of the genetic basis and pathophysiology of SMA, several strategies for treatment have been explored, but none have yet demonstrated success in the clinic.
Gene replacement of SMN1, using viral delivery vectors, and cell replacement, using differentiated SMN1+/+ stem cells, have demonstrated efficacy in animal models of SMA. More research is needed to determine the safety and immune response and to address the requirement for the initiation of treatment at the neonatal stage before these approaches can be applied to humans.
Correction of alternative splicing of SMN2 in cultured cells has also been achieved using synthetic nucleic acids as therapeutic agents: (i) antisense oligonucleotides that target sequence elements in SMN2 pre-mRNA and shift the outcome of the splicing reaction toward the generation of full length SMN2 mRNA (Passini et al., Sci. Transl. Med., 2011, 3:72ra18; and, Hua et al., Nature, 2011, 478:123) and (ii) trans-splicing RNA molecules that provide a fully functional RNA sequence that replace the mutant fragment during splicing and generate a full length SMN1 mRNA (Coady and Lorson, J Neurosci., 2010, 30:126).
Other approaches under exploration include searching for drugs that increase Smn levels, enhance residual Smn function, or compensate for loss of Smn. Aminoglycosides have been shown to enhance expression of stabilized Smn protein produced from SMN2 Δ7 mRNA by promoting the translational read-through of the aberrant stop codon, but have poor central nervous system penetration and are toxic after repeated dosing. Chemotherapeutic agents, such as aclarubicin, have been shown to increase Smn protein in cell culture; however, the toxicity profile of these drugs prohibits long-term use in SMA patients. Some drugs under clinical investigation for the treatment of SMA include transcription activators such as histone deacetylase (“HDAC”) inhibitors (e.g., butyrates, valproic acid, and hydroxyurea), and mRNA stabilizers (mRNA decapping inhibitor RG3039 from Repligen), intended to increase the amount of total RNA transcribed from the SMN2 gene. However, the use of HDAC inhibitors or mRNA stabilizers does not address the underlying cause of SMA and may result in a global increase in transcription and gene expression with potential safety problems in humans.
In an alternative approach, neuroprotective agents such as olesoxime have been chosen for investigation. Such strategies are not aimed at increasing the production of functional Smn for the treatment of SMA, but instead are being explored to protect the Smn-deficient motor neurons from neurodegeneration.

SUMMARY
In one aspect, provided herein are compounds of Formula (I):




or a form thereof, wherein w1, w2, w3, w4, w5, w6 and w7 are as defined herein. In one embodiment, provided herein is a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of Formula (I) or a form thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, excipient or diluent. In a specific embodiment, provided herein is a compound of Formula (I) or a form thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition thereof for treating spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
SMA is caused by deletion or mutation of the SMN1 gene, resulting in selective degeneration of Smn-deficient motor neurons. Although human subjects retain several copies of the SMN2 gene, the small amount of functional Smn protein expressed from SMN2 does not fully compensate for the loss of Smn that would have been expressed from the SMN1 gene. The compounds, compositions thereof and uses therewith described herein are based, in part, on the Applicants discovery that a compound of Formula (I) increases the inclusion of exon 7 of SMN2 into mRNA that is transcribed from an SMN2 minigene. The minigene reproduces the alternative splicing reaction of exon 7 of SMN2 which results in exon 7 skipping in the majority of SMN2 transcripts. Thus, compounds of Formula (I) or a form thereof may be used to modulate inclusion of exon 7 of SMN2 into mRNA that is transcribed from the SMN2 gene. Applicants have also discovered that a compound of Formula (I) increases the inclusion of exon 7 of SMN1 into mRNA that is transcribed from an SMN1 minigene. Thus, compounds of Formula (I) or a form thereof may be used to modulate inclusion of exon 7 of SMN1 into mRNA that is transcribed from the SMN1 gene.
In a specific embodiment, provided herein are compounds of Formula (I) or a form thereof that may be used to modulate the inclusion of exon 7 of SMN2 into mRNA that is transcribed from the SMN2 gene. In another specific embodiment, provided herein are compounds of Formula (I) or a form thereof that may be used to modulate the inclusion of exon 7 of SMN1 into mRNA that is transcribed from the SMN1 gene. In yet another embodiment, provided herein are compounds of Formula (I) or a form thereof that may be used to modulate the inclusion of exon 7 of SMN1 and SMN2 into mRNA that is transcribed from the SMN1 and SMN2 genes, respectively.
In another aspect, provided herein is the use of a compound of Formula (I) or a form thereof for treating SMA. In a specific embodiment, provided herein is a method for treating SMA in a human subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) or a form thereof. The compound of Formula (I) or a form thereof is preferably administered to a human subject in a pharmaceutical composition. In another specific embodiment, provided herein is the use of a compound of Formula (I) for treating SMA, wherein the compound enhances the inclusion of exon 7 of SMN2 into mRNA that is transcribed from the SMN2 gene. Without being limited by theory, compounds of Formula (I) enhance inclusion of exon 7 of SMN2 into mRNA that is transcribed from the SMN2 gene and increase levels of Smn protein produced from the SMN2 gene, and thus can be used to treat SMA in a human subject in need thereof.

FIG. 1, referenced in Biological Example 1, is a schematic drawing of the SMN2-A minigene construct, which produces two alternatively spliced mRNA transcripts: a full length mRNA that contains exon 7 and a Δ7 mRNA that lacks exon 7. The adenine nucleotide inserted in exon 7 of SMN2-A after nucleic residue 48 is represented by the letter “A.” Alternatively, the nucleotide may also be selected from cytosine or thymine. Due to the insertion of one nucleotide (A, C, or T) after nucleic residue 48, the full length mRNA does not contain a stop codon in the SMN open reading frame, whereas the Δ7 mRNA has a stop codon in Exon 8 that is indicated by the word “Stop.”
FIGS. 2a and 2b, referenced in Biological Example 1, provide the DNA sequence of the minigene from the SMN2-A minigene construct SEQ ID NO. 21 (FIG. 2a). As shown in FIG. 2b, the following sub-sequences can be found:
1-70: 5′UTR (deg);
71-79: exon 6: start codon and BamHI site (atgggatcc);
80-190: exon 6;
191-5959: intron 6;
5960-6014: exon 7 with the adenine nucleotide “A” insert (position 6008);
6015-6458: intron 7;
6459-6481: part of exon 8;
6482-8146: BamHI site (sequence at the 5′ end), luciferase coding sequence starting with codon 2 (without initiation codon), NotI site (sequence at the 3′ end), TAA stop codon; and 8147-8266: 3′UTR (deg).
To generate the SMN1 version of the minigene, the sixth nucleotide of exon 7 (a thymine residue) of the SMN2-A minigene construct is changed to cytosine using site directed mutagenesis. Thus, similar to the SMN2-A minigene construct, the SMN1 minigene construct has a single adenine residue inserted after nucleic residue 48 of exon 7. The SMN1 minigene construct is referred to as SMN1-A. Similarly, the nucleotide inserted in the SMN1 minigene construct after nucleic residue 48 of exon 7 may also be selected alternatively from cytosine or thymine.
FIGS. 3a and 3b, referenced in Biological Example 2, show the correction of SMN2 minigene alternative splicing in cells treated with rising concentrations of Compound 6 (FIG. 3a) and Compound 170 (FIG. 3b) over a 24 hr period. The levels of full length SMN2 minigene mRNA were quantified using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). The level of full length SMN2 minigene mRNA in compound-treated samples was normalized to that in vehicle-treated samples and plotted as a function of the compound concentration.
FIGS. 4a and 4b, referenced in Biological Example 3, show the correction of SMN2 alternative splicing in Type 1 SMA patient fibroblasts treated with rising concentrations of Compound 6 (FIG. 4a) and Compound 170 (FIG. 4b) over a 24 hr period. The levels of full length and Δ7 SMN2 mRNA were quantified using RT-qPCR. The levels of full length and Δ7 SMN2 mRNA in compound-treated samples were normalized to those in vehicle-treated samples and plotted as a function of the compound concentration.
FIGS. 5a and 5b, referenced in Biological Example 4, show the correction of SMN2 alternative splicing in Type 1 SMA patient fibroblasts treated with rising concentrations of Compound 6 (FIG. 5a) and Compound 170 (FIG. 5b) over a 24 hr period. The full length and Δ7 SMN2 mRNA were amplified using reverse transcription-end point PCR (RT-PCR) and PCR products were separated using agarose gel electrophoresis. The top and bottom bands correspond to the full length and Δ7 SMN2 mRNA respectively. The intensity of each band is proportional to the amount of RNA present in the sample.
FIGS. 6a and 6b, referenced in Biological Example 5, show the correction of SMN2 alternative splicing (in both the SMN2 gene and the hybrid mouse Smn1-SMN2 gene) in brain and muscle tissues in a C/C-allele SMA mouse model resulting from treatment for 10 days twice per day (BID) with 10 mg/kg of Compound 6 (FIG. 6a) and Compound 170 (FIG. 6b). The levels of full length and Δ7 SMN2 mRNA were quantified using RT-qPCR, the combined full length and Δ7 SMN2 mRNA quantity was set to 1, and fractional quantities of full length and Δ7 SMN2 were calculated.
FIGS. 7a and 7b, referenced in Biological Example 6, show the correction of SMN2 alternative splicing (in both the SMN2 gene and the hybrid mouse Smn1-SMN2 gene) in brain and muscle tissues in a C/C-allele SMA mouse model resulting from treatment for 10 days BID with 10 mg/kg of Compound 6 (FIG. 7a) and Compound 170 (FIG. 7b). The full length and Δ7 SMN2 mRNA were amplified using RT-PCR. The PCR products were separated using agarose gel electrophoresis. The top and bottom bands correspond to the full length and Δ7 SMN2 mRNA, respectively. The intensity of each band is proportional to the amount of RNA present in the sample.

Speckles were counted using fluorescence microscopy. The number of speckles in compound-treated samples was normalized to that in vehicle-treated samples and plotted as a function of the compound concentration.
FIG. 10, referenced in Biological Example 9, shows an increase in Smn protein expression (black circles) in motor neurons generated from iPS cells generated from Type 1 SMA patient fibroblasts treated with Compound 6 (FIG. 10). The level of Smn protein was quantified using Smn immunostaining and confocal fluorescence microscopy. The level of Smn protein in compound-treated samples was normalized to that in vehicle-treated samples and plotted as a function of the compound concentration.
FIGS. 11a and 11b, referenced in Biological Example 11, show increased Smn protein expression in brain, spinal cord, and muscle tissues in a C/C-allele SMA mouse model resulting from treatment for 10 days BID with 100 mg/kg of Compound 6 (FIG. 11a, for n=10) and 10 mg/kg of Compound 170 (FIG. 11b, for n=5). The p value by ANOVA in each Figure is indicated with three stars (***) for p<0.001.

As used herein, the term “protected” means that a functional group on a compound of Formula (I) is in a form modified to preclude undesired side reactions at the protected site when the compound is subjected to a reaction. Suitable protecting groups will be recognized by those with ordinary skill in the art as well as by reference to standard textbooks such as, for example, T. W. Greene et al, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis (1991), Wiley, New York.
Prodrugs of a compound of Formula (I) or a form thereof are also contemplated herein.
As used herein, the term “prodrug” means that a functional group on a compound of Formula (I) is in a form (e.g., acting as an active or inactive drug precursor) that is transformed in vivo to yield an active or more active compound of Formula (I) or a form thereof. The transformation may occur by various mechanisms (e.g., by metabolic and/or non-metabolic chemical processes), such as, for example, by hydrolysis and/or metabolism in blood, liver and/or other organs and tissues. A discussion of the use of prodrugs is provided by V. J. Stella, et. al., “Biotechnology: Pharmaceutical Aspects, Prodrugs: Challenges and Rewards,” American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists and Springer Press, 2007.
In one example, when a compound of Formula (I) or a form thereof contains a carboxylic acid functional group, a prodrug can comprise an ester formed by the replacement of the hydrogen atom of the acid group with a functional group such as alkyl and the like. In another example, when a compound of Formula (I) or a form thereof contains an alcohol functional group, a prodrug can be formed by the replacement of the hydrogen atom of the alcohol group with a functional group such as alkyl or substituted carbonyl and the like. In another example, when a compound of Formula (I) or a form thereof contains an amine functional group, a prodrug can be formed by the replacement of one or more amine hydrogen atoms with a functional group such as alkyl or substituted carbonyl. In another example, when a compound of Formula (I) or a form thereof contains a hydrogen substituent, a prodrug can be formed by the replacement of one or more hydrogen atoms with an alkyl substituent.
Pharmaceutically acceptable prodrugs of compounds of Formula (I) or a form thereof include those compounds substituted with one or more of the following groups: carboxylic acid esters, sulfonate esters, amino acid esters phosphonate esters, mono-, di- or triphosphate esters or alkyl substituents where appropriate. As described herein, it is understood by a person of ordinary skill in the art that one or more of such substituents may be used to provide a compound of Formula (I) or a form thereof for use as a prodrug.
The compounds of Formula (I) can form salts which are intended to be included within the scope of this description. Reference to a compound of Formula (I) herein is understood to include reference to salts thereof, unless otherwise indicated. The term “salt(s)”, as employed herein, denotes acidic salts formed with inorganic and/or organic acids, as well as basic salts formed with inorganic and/or organic bases. In addition, when a compound of Formula (I) contains both a basic moiety, such as, but not limited to a pyridine or imidazole, and an acidic moiety, such as, but not limited to a carboxylic acid, zwitterions (“inner salts”) may be formed and are included within the term “salt(s)” as used herein.
The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt(s)”, as used herein, means those salts of compounds described herein that are safe and effective (i.e., non-toxic, physiologically acceptable) for use in mammals and that possess biological activity, although other salts are also useful. Salts of the compounds of Formula (I) may be formed, for example, by reacting a compound of Formula (I) with an amount of acid or base, such as an equivalent or stoichiometric amount, in a medium such as one in which the salt precipitates or in an aqueous medium followed by lyophilization.
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include one or more salts of acidic or basic groups present in compounds described herein. Embodiments of acid addition salts include, but are not limited to, an acetate, diacetate, acid phosphate, ascorbate, benzoate, benzenesulfonate, bisulfate, bitartrate, borate, butyrate, chloride, citrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, ethanesulfonate, formate, fumarate, gentisinate, gluconate, glucaronate, glutamate, hydrobromide, hydrochloride, dihydrochloride, trihydrochloride, hydroiodide, isonicotinate, lactate, maleate, methanesulfonate, naphthalenesulfonate, nitrate, oxalate, pamoate, pantothenate, phosphate, propionate, saccharate, salicylate, succinate, sulfate, tartrate, thiocyanate, toluenesulfonate (also known as tosylate), trifluoroacetate, trifluoroacetic acid salt and the like.

More particular embodiments include a chloride, hydrobromide, hydrochloride, dihydrochloride, trifluoroacetate, trifluoroacetic acid salt and the like.
Additionally, acids which are generally considered suitable for the formation of pharmaceutically useful salts from basic pharmaceutical compounds are discussed, for example, by P. Stahl et al, Camille G. (eds.) Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts. Properties, Selection and Use. (2002) Zurich: Wiley-VCH; S. Berge et al, Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences (1977) 66(1) 1-19; P. Gould, International J. of Pharmaceutics (1986) 33, 201-217; Anderson et al, The Practice of Medicinal Chemistry (1996), Academic Press, New York; and in The Orange Book (see, website for Food & Drug Administration, Washington, D.C.). These disclosures are incorporated herein by reference thereto.
Suitable basic salts include, but are not limited to, aluminum, ammonium, calcium, lithium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, zinc, and diethanolamine salts. Certain compounds described herein can also form pharmaceutically acceptable salts with organic bases (for example, organic amines) such as, but not limited to, dicyclohexylamines, tert-butyl amines and the like, and with various amino acids such as, but not limited to, arginine, lysine and the like. Basic nitrogen-containing groups may be quarternized with agents such as lower alkyl halides (e.g., methyl, ethyl, and butyl chlorides, bromides and iodides), dialkyl sulfates (e.g., dimethyl, diethyl, and dibutyl sulfates), long chain halides (e.g., decyl, lauryl, and stearyl chlorides, bromides and iodides), aralkyl halides (e.g., benzyl and phenethyl bromides), and others.
All such acid salts and base salts are intended to be pharmaceutically acceptable salts within the scope of the description herein and all such acid and base salts are considered equivalent to the free forms of the corresponding compounds for the purposes described herein.
Compounds of Formula I and forms thereof may further exist in a tautomeric form. All such tautomeric forms are contemplated herein as part of the present description.
The compounds of Formula (I) may contain asymmetric or chiral centers, and, therefore, may exist in different stereoisomeric forms. The present description is intended to include all stereoisomeric forms of the compounds of Formula (I) as well as mixtures thereof, including racemic mixtures.
The compounds of Formula (I) described herein may include one or more chiral centers, and as such may exist as racemic mixtures (R/S) or as substantially pure enantiomers and diastereomers. The compounds may also exist as substantially pure (R) or (S) enantiomers (when one chiral center is present). In one embodiment, the compounds of Formula (I) described herein are (S) isomers and may exist as enantiomerically pure compositions substantially comprising only the (S) isomer. In another embodiment, the compounds of Formula (I) described herein are (R) isomers and may exist as enantiomerically pure compositions substantially comprising only the (R) isomer. As one of skill in the art will recognize, when more than one chiral center is present, the compounds of Formula (I) described herein may also include portions described as an (R,R), (R,S), (S,R) or (S,S) isomer, as defined by IUPAC Nomenclature Recommendations.
As used herein, the term “substantially pure” refers to compounds consisting substantially of a single isomer in an amount greater than or equal to 90%, in an amount greater than or equal to 92%, in an amount greater than or equal to 95%, in an amount greater than or equal to 98%, in an amount greater than or equal to 99%, or in an amount equal to 100% of the single isomer.
In one aspect, a compound of Formula (I) is a substantially pure (S) enantiomer present in an amount greater than or equal to 90%, in an amount greater than or equal to 92%, in an amount greater than or equal to 95%, in an amount greater than or equal to 98%, in an amount greater than or equal to 99%, or in an amount equal to 100%.
In one aspect, a compound of Formula (I) is a substantially pure (R) enantiomer present in an amount greater than or equal to 90%, in an amount greater than or equal to 92%, in an amount greater than or equal to 95%, in an amount greater than or equal to 98%, in an amount greater than or equal to 99%, or in an amount equal to 100%.
As used herein, a “racemate” is any mixture of isometric forms that are not “enantiomerically pure”, including mixtures such as, without limitation, in a ratio of about 50/50, about 60/40, about 70/30, about 80/20, about 85/15 or about 90/10.
In addition, the present description embraces all geometric and positional isomers. For example, if a compound of Formula (I) incorporates a double bond or a fused ring, both the cis- and trans-forms, as well as mixtures, are embraced within the scope of the description herein.
Diastereomeric mixtures can be separated into their individual diastereomers on the basis of their physical chemical differences by methods well known to those skilled in the art, such as, for example, by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization. Enantiomers can be separated by use of chiral HPLC column or other chromatographic methods known to those skilled in the art.
Enantiomers can also be separated by converting the enantiomeric mixture into a diastereomeric mixture by reaction with an appropriate optically active compound (e.g., chiral auxiliary such as a chiral alcohol or Mosher's acid chloride), separating the diastereomers and converting (e.g., hydrolyzing) the individual diastereomers to the corresponding pure enantiomers. Also, some of the compounds of Formula (I) may be atropisomers (e.g., substituted biaryls) and are considered part of this description.
All stereoisomer forms (for example, geometric isomers, optical isomers, positional isomers and the like) of the present compounds (including salts, solvates, esters and prodrugs and transformed prodrugs thereof) which may exist due to asymmetric carbons on various substituents, including enantiomeric forms (which may exist even in the absence of asymmetric carbons), rotameric forms, atropisomers, diastereomeric forms and regioisomeric forms are contemplated within the scope of the description herein. For example, if a compound of Formula (I) incorporates a double bond or a fused ring, both the cis- and trans-forms, as well as mixtures thereof, are embraced within the scope of the description herein. Also, for example, all keto-enol and imine-enamine tautomeric forms of the compounds are included in the description herein. Individual stereoisomers of the compounds of Formula (I) described herein may, for example, be substantially free of other isomers, or may be present in a racemic mixture, as described supra.
The use of the terms “salt,” “prodrug” and “transformed prodrug” are intended to equally apply to the salts, prodrugs and transformed prodrugs of all contemplated isotopologues, stereoisomers, racemates or tautomers of the instant compounds.
The term “isotopologue” refers to isotopically-enriched compounds which are identical to those recited herein, 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 usually found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds described herein include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, fluorine and chlorine, such as H2, H3, C13, C14, N15, O18, O17, P31, P32, S35, F18, Cl35 and Cl36, respectively, each of which is also within the scope of this description.
Certain isotopically-enriched compounds described herein (e.g., those labeled with H3 and C14) are useful in compound and/or substrate tissue distribution assays. Tritiated (i.e., H3) and carbon-14 (i.e., C14) isotopes are particularly preferred for their ease of preparation and detectability. Further, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium (i.e., “deuterium enriched”) may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability (e.g., increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements) and hence may be preferred in some circumstances. Isotopically-enriched compounds of Formula (I) can generally be prepared using procedures known to persons of ordinary skill in the art by substituting an appropriate isotopically-enriched reagent for a non-isotopically-enriched reagent.
When the compounds are enriched with deuterium, the deuterium-to-hydrogen ratio on the deuterated atoms of the molecule substantially exceeds the naturally occurring deuterium-to-hydrogen ratio.
An embodiment described herein may include an isotopologue form of the compound of Formula (I), wherein the isotopologue is substituted on one or more atom members of the compound of Formula (I) with one or more deuterium atoms in place of one or more hydrogen atoms.
An embodiment described herein may include a compound of Formula (I) and forms thereof, wherein a carbon atom may have from 1 to 3 hydrogen atoms optionally replaced with deuterium.
One or more compounds described herein may exist in unsolvated as well as solvated forms with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, and the like, and the description herein is intended to embrace both solvated and unsolvated forms.
As used herein, the term “solvate” means a physical association of a compound described herein with one or more solvent molecules. This physical association involves varying degrees of ionic and covalent bonding, including hydrogen bonding. In certain instances the solvate will be capable of isolation, for example when one or more solvent molecules are incorporated in the crystal lattice of the crystalline solid. As used herein, “solvate” encompasses both solution-phase and isolatable solvates. Non-limiting examples of suitable solvates include ethanolates, methanolates, and the like.
One or more compounds described herein may optionally be converted to a solvate. Preparation of solvates is generally known. A typical, non-limiting process involves dissolving a compound in a desired amount of the desired solvent (organic or water or mixtures thereof) at a higher than ambient temperature, and cooling the solution at a rate sufficient to form crystals which are then isolated by standard methods. Analytical techniques such as, for example infrared spectroscopy, show the presence of the solvent (or water) in the crystals as a solvate (or hydrate).
As used herein, the term “hydrate” means a solvate wherein the solvent molecule is water.
Polymorphic crystalline and amorphous forms of the compounds of Formula (I), and of the salts, solvates, esters and prodrugs of the compounds of Formula (I), are further intended to be included in the scope of the compounds described herein.

BIOLOGICAL EXAMPLES
To describe in more detail and assist in understanding the present description, the following non-limiting biological examples are offered to more fully illustrate the scope of the description and are not to be construed as specifically limiting the scope thereof. Such variations of the present description that may be now known or later developed, which would be within the purview of one skilled in the art to ascertain, are considered to fall within the scope of the present description and as hereinafter claimed. These examples illustrate the testing of certain compounds described herein in vitro and/or in vivo and demonstrate the usefulness of the compounds for treating of SMA by enhancing the inclusion of exon 7 of SMN2 into mRNA transcribed from the SMN2 gene. Compounds of Formula (I) enhance inclusion of exon 7 of SMN2 into mRNA transcribed from the SMN2 gene and increase levels of Smn protein produced from the SMN2 gene, and thus can be used to treat SMA in a human subject in need thereof.
Example 1
SMN2 Minigene Construct
Preparation of the Minigene Constructs
DNA corresponding to a region of the SMN2 gene starting from the 5′ end of exon 6 (ATAATTCCCCC) (SEQ ID NO. 14) and ending at nucleic acid residue 23 of exon 8 (CAGCAC) (SEQ ID NO. 15) was amplified by PCR using the following primers:







(SEQ ID NO. 16)


Forward primer: 5′-CGCGGATCCATAATTCCCCCACCACCTC-3′


 


(SEQ ID NO. 17)


Reverse primer: 5′-CGCGGATCCGTGCTGCTCTATGCCAGCA-3′






The 5′ end of each primer was designed to add a BamHI restriction endonuclease recognition site at both the 5′ end of exon 6 (GGATCC) (SEQ ID NO. 18) and the 3′ end after the 23rd nucleotide of exon 8. Using the BamHI restriction endonuclease recognition sites, the PCR fragment was cloned into a derivative of the original pcDNA 3.1/Hygro vector which was modified as disclosed in United States Patent Publication US2005/0048549.
New UTRs were added to the modified vector using the HindIII site and the BamHI restriction sites comprising a 5′DEG UTR: 5′-TAGCTTCTTACCCGTACTCCACCGTTGGCAGCACGATCGCACGTCCCACGTGAAC CATTGGTAAACCCTG-3′ (SEQ ID NO. 19) cloned into the modified pcDNA3.1/Hygro vector together with a start codon upstream of the BamHI restriction site, and;
a 3′DEG UTR: 5′-ATCGAAAGTACAGGACTAGCCTTCCTAGCAACCGCGGGCTGGGAGTCTGAGACAT CACTCAAGATATATGCTCGGTAACGTATGCTCTAGCCATCTAACTATTCCCTATGTCT TATAGGG-3′ (SEQ ID NO. 20) cloned into the modified pcDNA3.1/Hygro vector using the NotI restriction endonuclease recognition site and the XhoI restriction endonuclease recognition site with a stop codon immediately downstream of the NotI restriction site. In addition, a firefly luciferase gene lacking the start codon was cloned into the vector using the BamHI and NotI restriction sites.
The resulting minigene comprises, in 5′ to 3′ order: the 5′-DEG UTR, the start codon, six additional nucleotides forming a BamHI restriction site, the nucleic acid residues of exon 6, the nucleic acid residues of intron 6 of SMN2, the nucleic acid residues of exon 7 of SMN2, the nucleic acid residues of intron 7 of SMN2, and the first 23 nucleic acid residues of exon 8 of SMN2, an additional six nucleotides forming a BamHI restriction site and the firefly luciferase gene lacking the start codon.
A single adenine residue was inserted after nucleotide 48 of exon 7 of SMN2 by site-directed mutagenesis. This minigene construct is referred to as SMN2-A.
SMN2 transcripts derived from minigenes containing exon 6 through 8 and the intervening introns recapitulate the splicing of their endogenous pre-mRNA (Lorson et al, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1999, 96 (11), 6307). An SMN2-alternative splicing reporter construct which contains exons 6 through 8 and the intervening introns followed by a luciferase reporter gene was generated. Salient features of this construct are the lack of the start codon in the luciferase gene, inactivation of the termination codon (in the open reading frame that encodes the SMN protein) of exon 7 by insertion of a nucleotide after nucleic acid 48 of exon 7 and addition of a start codon (ATG) immediately upstream of exon 6. A single adenine (SMN2-A) was inserted after nucleic residue 48 of exon 7.
The SMN2 minigene was designed such that the luciferase reporter is in frame with the ATG start codon immediately upstream of exon 6 when exon 7 is present in the mRNA and the luciferase reporter is out of frame with the ATG start codon immediately upstream of exon 6 if exon 7 of SMN2 is removed during splicing of the pre-mRNA. In addition, in the absence of exon 7, the open reading frame that starts from the ATG start codon immediately upstream of exon 6 contains a stop codon in the fragment of exon 8 of SMN. Thus, in the presence of compounds that increase the inclusion of exon 7 of SMN2 into mRNA transcribed from the SMN2 gene, more transcripts containing exon 7 and more functional reporter are produced. A schematic illustration of this description can be found in FIG. 1.
The DNA sequence of the minigene from the SMN2-A construct SEQ ID NO. 21 is provided in FIG. 2a. A picture of the minigene SMN2-A subsequences is shown in FIG. 2b. 
Example 2
SMN2 Minigene mRNA Splicing RT-qPCR Assay in Cultured Cells
The reverse transcription-quantitative PCR-based (RT-qPCR) assay is used to quantify the level of the full length SMN2 minigene mRNA containing SMN2 exon 7 in a HEK293H cell line stably transfected with said minigene and treated with a test compound.

Protocol.
HEK293H cells stably transfected with the SMN2-A minigene construct described above (10,000 cells/well) are seeded in 200 μL of cell culture medium (DMEM plus 10% FBS, with 200 μg/mL hygromycin) in 96-well flat-bottom plates and the plate is immediately swirled to ensure proper dispersal of cells, forming an even monolayer of cells. Cells are allowed to attach for at least 4-6 hours. Test compounds are serially diluted 3.16-fold in 100% DMSO to generate a 7-point concentration curve. A solution of test compound (1 μL, 200× in DMSO) is added to each cell-containing well and the plate is incubated for 24 hours in a cell culture incubator (37° C., 5% CO2, 100% relative humidity). 2 replicates are prepared for each test compound concentration. The cells are then lysed in Cells-To-Ct lysis buffer and the lysate is stored at −80° C.
Full length SMN2-A minigene and GAPDH mRNA are quantified using the following primers and probes provided in Table 3. Primer SMN Forward A (SEQ ID NO. 1) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in exon 7 (nucleotide 22 to nucleotide 40), primer SMN Reverse A (SEQ ID NO. 2) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in the coding sequence of Firefly luciferase, SMN Probe A (SEQ ID NO. 3) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in exon 7 (nucleotide 50 to nucleotide 54) and exon 8 (nucleotide 1 to nucleotide 21). The combination of these three oligonucleotides detects only SMN1 or SMN2 minigenes (RT-qPCR) and will not detect endogenous SMN1 or SMN2 genes.

The SMN forward and reverse primers are used at final concentrations of 0.4 μM. The SMN probe is used at a final concentration of 0.15 μM. The GAPDH primers are used at final concentrations of 0.2 μM and the probe at 0.15 μM.
The SMN2-minigene GAPDH mix (15 μL total volume) is prepared by combining 7.5 μL of 2×RT-PCR buffer, 0.4 μL of 25×RT-PCR enzyme mix, 0.75 μL of 20×GAPDH primer-probe mix, 4.0075 μL of water, 2 μL of 10-fold diluted cell lysate, 0.06 μL of 100 μM SMN forward primer, 0.06 μL of 100 μM SMN reverse primer, and 0.225 μL of 100 μM SMN probe.
PCR is carried out at the following temperatures for the indicated time: Step 1: 48° C. (15 min); Step 2: 95° C. (10 min); Step 3: 95° C. (15 sec); Step 4: 60° C. (1 min); then repeat Steps 3 and 4 for a total of 40 cycles.
Each reaction mixture contains both SMN2-A minigene and GAPDH primers/probe sets (multiplex design), allowing simultaneous measurement of the levels of two transcripts.
Two SMN spliced products are generated from the SMN2 minigene. The first spliced product containing exon 7, corresponding to full length SMN2 mRNA, is referred to herein using the term “SMN2 minigene FL.” The second spliced product lacking exon 7 is referred to herein using the term “SMN2 minigene Δ7.”
The increase of SMN2 minigene FL mRNA relative to that in cells treated with vehicle control is determined from real-time PCR data using a modified ΔΔCt method (as described in Livak and Schmittgen, Methods, 2001, 25:402-8). The amplification efficiency (E) is calculated from the slope of the amplification curve for SMN2 minigene FL and GAPDH individually. The abundances of SMN2 minigene FL and GAPDH are then calculated as (1+E)−Ct, where Ct is the threshold value for each amplicon. The abundance of SMN2 minigene FL is normalized to GAPDH abundance. The normalized SMN2 minigene FL abundance from test compound-treated samples is then divided by normalized SMN2 minigene FL abundance from vehicle-treated cells to determine the level of SMN2 FL mRNA relative to vehicle control.
Results.
As seen in FIG. 3, cells treated with Compound 6 (FIG. 3a) and Compound 170 (FIG. 3b) increased SMN2 minigene FL mRNA at low concentrations. The two test compounds fully restored exon 7 inclusion relative to untreated cells.
For compounds of Formula (I) or a form thereof disclosed herein, Table 4 provides the EC1.5× for production of full length SMN2 mRNA that was obtained from the 7-point concentration data generated for each test compound according to the procedure of Biological Example 2. The term “EC1.5× for production of full length SMN2 mRNA” is defined as that concentration of test compound that is effective in increasing the amount of full length SMN2 mRNA to a level 1.5-fold greater relative to that in vehicle-treated cells. An EC1.5× for production of full length SMN2 mRNA between >3 μM and ≦30 μM is indicated by one star (*), an EC1.5× between ≧1 μM and ≦3 μM is indicated by two stars (**), an EC1.5× between >0.3 μM and ≦1 μM is indicated by three stars (***), an EC1.5× between >0.1 μM and ≦0.3 μM is indicated by four stars (****) and an EC1.5×≦0.1 μM is indicated by five stars (*****).

Protocol.
GM03813 SMA patient cells (5,000 cells/well) are seeded in 200 μL of cell culture medium (DMEM plus 10% FBS) in 96-well flat-bottom plates and the plate is immediately swirled to ensure proper dispersal of cells, forming an even monolayer of cells. Cells are allowed to attach for at least 4-6 hrs. Test compounds are serially diluted 3.16-fold in 100% DMSO to generate a 7-point concentration curve. A solution of test compound (1 μL, 200× in DMSO) is added to each test well and 1 μL DMSO is added to each control well. The plate is incubated for 24 hrs in a cell culture incubator (37° C., 5% CO2, 100% relative humidity). The cells are then lysed in Cells-To-Ct lysis buffer and the lysate is stored at −80° C.
SMN2-specific spliced products and GAPDH mRNA are identified using the following primers and probes in Table 5. Primer SMN FL Forward B (SEQ ID NO. 7) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in exon 7 (nucleotide 32 to nucleotide 54) and exon 8 (nucleotide 1 to nucleotide 4), primer SMN Δ7 Forward B (SEQ ID NO. 8) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in exon 6 (nucleotide 87 to nucleotide 111) and exon 8 (nucleotide 1 to nucleotide 3), primer SMN Reverse B (SEQ ID NO. 9) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in exon 8 (nucleotide 39 to nucleotide 62), probe SMN Probe B (SEQ ID NO. 10) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in exon 8 (nucleotide 7 to nucleotide 36). These primers and probes hybridize to nucleotide sequences common to human SMN1 and SMN2 mRNA. Since the SMA patient cells used in Example 3 contain only the SMN2 gene, RT-qPCR can quantify only SMN2 full-length and Δ7 mRNA.

The SMN forward and reverse primers are used at final concentrations of 0.4 μM. The SMN probe is used at a final concentration of 0.15 μM. GAPDH primers are used at final concentrations of 0.1 μM and the probe at 0.075 μM.
The SMN-GAPDH mix (10 μL total volume) is prepared by combining 5 μL of 2× RT-PCR buffer, 0.4 μL of 25×RT-PCR enzyme mix, 0.25 μL of 20×GAPDH primer-probe mix, 1.755 μL water, 2.5 μL of cell lysate, 0.04 μL of 100 μM SMN FL or SMN Δ7 forward primer, 0.04 μL of 100 μM SMN reverse primer, and 0.015 μL of 10 μM probe.
PCR is carried out at the following temperatures for the indicated time: Step 1: 48° C. (15 min); Step 2: 95° C. (10 min); Step 3: 95° C. (15 sec); Step 4: 60° C. (1 min); then, repeat Steps 3 and 4 for a total of 40 cycles.
Each reaction mixture contains either SMN2 FL and GAPDH or SMN2 Δ7 and GAPDH primers/probe sets (multiplex design), allowing simultaneous measurement of the levels of two transcripts.
The endogenous SMN2 gene gives rise to two alternatively spliced mRNA. The full length SMN2 mRNA that contains exon 7 is referred to herein using the term “SMN2 FL.” The truncated mRNA that lacks exon 7 is referred to herein using the term “SMN2 Δ7.”
The increase of SMN2 FL and decrease in SMN2 Δ7 mRNA relative to those in cells treated with vehicle control are determined from real-time PCR data using a modified ΔΔCt method (as described in Livak and Schmittgen, Methods, 2001, 25:402-8). The amplification efficiency (E) is calculated from the slope of the amplification curve for SMN2 FL, SMN2 Δ7, and GAPDH individually. The abundances of SMN2 FL, SMN2 Δ7, and GAPDH are then calculated as (1+E)−Ct, where Ct is the threshold value for each amplicon. The abundances of SMN2 FL and SMN2 Δ7 are normalized to GAPDH abundance. The normalized SMN2 FL and SMN2 Δ7 abundances from test compound-treated samples are then divided by normalized SMN2 FL and SMN2 Δ7 abundances, respectively, from vehicle-treated cells to determine the levels of SMN2 FL and SMN2 Δ7 mRNA relative to vehicle control.
Results.
As seen in FIG. 4, cells treated with increasing concentrations of Compound 6 (FIG. 4a) and Compound 170 (FIG. 4b) contain progressively more SMN2 FL mRNA and less SMN2 Δ7 mRNA than those treated with vehicle, indicating a correction of SMN2 alternative splicing.
Example 4
Endogenous SMN2 mRNA End-Point Semi-Quantitative RT-PCR Splicing Assay in Cultured Cells
The endpoint reverse transcription-PCR splicing assay is used to visualize and quantify the levels of the full length and Δ7 SMN2 mRNA in primary cells and cell lines containing the SMN2 gene treated with a test compound.

These primers hybridize to a nucleotide sequence in exon 6 (SMN Forward C, SEQ ID NO. 11) (nucleotide 43 to nucleotide 63) and exon 8 (SMN Reverse C, SEQ ID NO. 12) (nucleotide 51 to nucleotide 73) common to human SMN1 and SMN2 mRNA. Since the SMA patient cells used in Example 4 contain only the SMN2 gene, RT-PCR can visualize and quantify only SMN2 full-length and SMN2 Δ7 mRNA.

To synthesize cDNA, 5 μL of lysate, 4 μL of 5× iScript reaction mix, 1 μL of reverse transcriptase, and 10 μL of water are combined and incubated 5 min at 25° C. followed by 30 min at 42° C., followed by 5 min at 85° C. The cDNA solution is stored at −20° C.
To perform endpoint PCR, 5 μL of cDNA, 0.2 μL of 100 μM forward primer, 0.2 μL of 100 μM reverse primer, and 22.5 μL of polymerase super mix are combined in a 96 well semiskirted PCR plate. PCR is carried out at the following temperatures for the indicated time: Step 1: 94° C. (2 min), Step 2: 94° C. (30 sec), Step 3: 55° C. (30 sec), Step 4: 68° C. (1 min), then repeat Steps 2 to 4 for a total of 33 cycles, then hold at 4° C.
10 μL of each PCR sample is electrophoretically separated on a 2% agarose E-gel for 14 minutes stained with double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) staining reagents (e.g., ethidium bromide) and visualized using a gel imager.
Results. As seen in FIG. 5, cells treated with increasing concentrations of Compound 6 (FIG. 5a) or Compound 170 (FIG. 5b) contain progressively more SMN2 FL mRNA and less SMN2 Δ7 mRNA, indicating a correction of SMN2 alternative splicing.

Protocol.
C/C-allele SMA mice are treated by oral gavage two times per day (BID) for 10 days with test compounds re-suspended in 0.5% HPMC and 0.1% Tween-80. Tissue samples were collected and snap frozen for RNA purification.
Tissue samples (20-40 mg) are homogenized in QIAzol Lysis Reagent for 2 minutes at 20 Hz in the TissueLyser II using one stainless steel bead. After addition of chloroform, the homogenate is separated into aqueous and organic phases by centrifugation. RNA partitioned to the upper, aqueous phase is extracted and ethanol is added to provide appropriate binding conditions. The sample is then applied to the RNeasy spin column from the RNeasy Mini Kit, where total RNA binds to the membrane. The RNA is eluted in RNase-free water then stored at −20° C. and subsequently analyzed using the TaqMan RT-qPCR on the 7900HT Thermocycler. Total RNA is diluted ten fold and 2.5 μL of the diluted sample is added to the TaqMan RT-qPCR mixture.
SMN2 spliced products are identified using the following primers and probe in Table 7. Primer SMN FL Forward B (SEQ ID NO. 7) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in exons 7 and 8, primer SMN Δ7 Forward B (SEQ ID NO. 8) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in exons 6 and 8, primer SMN Reverse B (SEQ ID NO. 9) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in exon 8, probe SMN Probe B (SEQ ID NO. 10) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in exon 8. These primers and probe hybridize to nucleotide sequences common to human SMN1 and SMN2 mRNA. Since the SMA patient cells used in Example 5 contain only the SMN2 gene, RT-qPCR can quantify only SMN2 full-length and Δ7 mRNA.

The SMN forward and reverse primers are used at final concentrations of 0.4 μM. The SMN probe is used at a final concentration of 0.15 μM. The SMN-GAPDH Mix (10 μL total volume) is prepared by combining 5 μL of 2×RT-PCR buffer, 0.4 μL of 25×RT-PCR enzyme mix, 0.5 μL of 20×GAPDH primer-probe mix, 1.505 μL of water, 2.5 μL of RNA solution, 0.04 μL of 100 μM forward primer, 0.04 μL of 100 μM reverse primer, and 0.015 μL of 100 μM SMN probe.
Each PCR cycle was carried out at the following temperatures for the indicated time: Step 1: 48° C. (15 min); Step 2: 95° C. (10 min); Step 3: 95° C. (15 sec); Step 4: 60° C. (1 min); then, repeat Steps 3 and 4 for a total of 40 cycles.
Each reaction mixture contains either SMN2 FL and mGAPDH or SMN2 Δ7 and mGAPDH primers/probe sets (multiplex design), allowing simultaneous measurement of the levels of two transcripts.
The increase of SMN2 FL and decrease in SMN2 Δ7 mRNA relative to those in tissues from animals treated with vehicle control are determined from real-time PCR data using a modified ΔΔCt method (as described in Livak and Schmittgen, Methods, 2001, 25:402-8). The amplification efficiency (E) is calculated from the slope of the amplification curve for SMN2 FL, SMN2 Δ7, and GAPDH individually. The abundances of SMN2 FL, SMN2 Δ7, and GAPDH are then calculated as (1+E)−Ct, where Ct is the threshold value for each amplicon. The abundances of SMN2 FL and SMN2 Δ7 are normalized to GAPDH abundance. The normalized SMN2 FL and SMN2 Δ7 abundances from test compound-treated samples are then divided by normalized SMN2 FL and SMN2 Δ7 abundances, respectively, from vehicle-treated cells to determine the levels of SMN2 FL and SMN2 Δ7 mRNA relative to vehicle control.
Results.
As seen in FIG. 6, tissues of animals treated with Compound 6 (FIG. 6a) and Compound 170 (FIG. 6b) contain substantially more SMN2 FL mRNA and less SMN2 Δ7 mRNA than those treated with vehicle, indicating a correction of SMN2 alternative splicing.

Protocol.
Cells are thawed and cultured in DMEM-10% FBS for 72 hours. Cells are trypsinized, counted and re-suspended to a concentration of 25,000 cells/mL in DMEM-10% FBS. The cell suspension is plated at 5,000 cells per well in a 96 well microtiter plate and incubated for 3 to 5 hours. To provide a control signal, three (3) wells in the 96 well plate do not receive cells and, thus, serve as Blank control wells. Test compounds are serially diluted 3.16-fold in 100% DMSO to generate a 7-point concentration curve. 1 μL of test compound solution is transferred to cell-containing wells and cells are incubated for 48 hours in a cell culture incubator (37° C., 5% CO2, 100% relative humidity). Triplicate samples are set up for each test compound concentration. After 48 hours, the supernatant is removed from the wells and 25 μL of the RIPA lysis buffer, containing protease inhibitors, is added to the wells and incubated with shaking at room temperature for 1 hour. 25 μL of the diluent is added and then 35 μL of the resulting lysate is transferred to a 384-well plate, where each well contains 5 μL of the antibody solution (1:100 dilution of anti-SMN d2 and anti-SMN kryptate in SMN reconstitution buffer). The plate is centrifuged for 1 minute to bring the solution to the bottom of the wells, then incubated overnight at room temperature. Fluorescence for each well of the plate at 665 nm and 620 nm is measured on an EnVision multilabel plate reader (Perkin-Elmer).
The normalized fluorescence signal is calculated for each sample, Blank and vehicle control well by dividing the signal at 665 nm by the signal at 620 nm. Normalizing the signal accounts for possible fluorescence quenching due to the matrix effect of the lysate. The ΔF value (a measurement of Smn protein abundance as a percent value) for each sample well is calculated by subtracting the normalized average fluorescence for the Blank control wells from the normalized fluorescence for each sample well, then dividing this difference by the normalized average fluorescence for the Blank control wells and multiplying the resulting value by 100. The ΔF value for each sample well represents the Smn protein abundance from test compound-treated samples. The ΔF value for each sample well is divided by the ΔF value for the vehicle control wells to calculate the fold increase in Smn protein abundance relative to the vehicle control.
Results.
As seen in FIG. 8, SMA Type 1 patient fibroblast cells treated with Compound 6 (FIG. 8a) and Compound 170 (FIG. 8b) show a dose dependent increase in Smn protein expression as measured by the SMN HTRF assay.
For compounds of Formula (I) or a form thereof disclosed herein, Table 9 provides the EC1.5× for Smn protein expression that was obtained from the 7-point concentration data generated for each test compound according to the procedure of Biological Example 7. The term “EC1.5× for Smn protein expression” is defined as that concentration of test compound that is effective in producing 1.5 times the amount of Smn protein in an SMA patient fibroblast cell compared to the amount produced from the DMSO vehicle control. An EC1.5× for Smn protein expression between >3 μM and ≦10 μM is indicated by one star (*), an EC1.5× between >1 μM and ≦3 μM is indicated by two stars (**), an EC1.5× between >0.3 μM and ≦1 μM is indicated by three stars (***) and an EC1.5×≦0.3 μM is indicated by four stars (****).

Example 8
Gems Count (Smn-Dependent Nuclear Speckle Count) Assay
The level of Smn protein directly correlates with the amount of nuclear foci, also known as gems, produced upon staining the cell with a fluorescently labeled anti-Smn antibody (Liu and Dreyfuss, EMBO J., 1996, 15:3555). Gems are multi-protein complexes whose formation is nucleated by the Smn protein and the gems count assay is used to evaluate the level of Smn protein in the cell. As described herein, the gems count assay is used to quantify the level of Smn protein in SMA patient fibroblast cells treated with a test compound.

Protocol:
Cells are thawed and incubated in DMEM-10% FBS for 72 hours, then trypsinized, counted and resuspended to 100,000 cells/mL in DMEM-10% FBS. The cell suspension (2 mL) is plated in a 6-well cell culture plate with a sterile cover slip and incubated for 3 to 5 hours. Test compounds are serially diluted 3.16-fold in 100% DMSO to generate a 7-point dilution curve. 10 μL of test compound solution is added to each cell-containing well and incubated for 48 hours in a cell culture incubator (37° C., 5% CO2, 100% relative humidity). Duplicates are set up for each test compound concentration. Cells containing DMSO at a final concentration of 0.5% are used as controls.
Cell culture medium is aspirated from the wells containing cover slips and gently washed three times with cold PBS. The cells are fixed by incubation for 20 minutes at room temperature while in paraformaldehyde. The cells are then washed two times with cold PBS followed by incubation for 5 minutes at room temperature with 0.05% Triton X-100 in PBS to permeabilize the cells. After the fixed cells are washed three times with cold PBS, they are blocked with 10% FBS for 1 hour. 60 μL of primary antibody diluted 1:1000 in blocking buffer is added and the mixture is incubated for one hour at room temperature. The cells are washed three times with PBS and 60 μL of secondary antibody diluted 1:5000 in blocking buffer is added, then the mixture is incubated for one hour at room temperature. The cover slips are mounted onto the slides with the aid of mounting medium and allowed to dry overnight. Nail polish is applied to the sides of the cover slip and the slides are stored, protected from light. A Zeiss Axovert 135 with a 63× Plan-Apochromat, NA=1.4 objective is used for immunofluorescence detection and counting. The number of gems is counted per≧150 nuclei and % activation is calculated using DMSO and 10 nM bortezomib as controls. For each test compound, the cells are examined at all wavelengths to identify test compounds with inherent fluorescence.
Results.
As seen in FIG. 9, SMA Type 1 patient cells treated with Compound 6 (FIG. 9a) and Compound 170 (FIG. 9b) contain progressively more gems relative to cells treated with DMSO.
Example 9
Smn Protein Assay in Human Motor Neurons
Smn immunofluorescent confocal microscopy is used to quantify the level of Smn protein in human motor neurons treated with test compounds.
Protocol.
Human motor neurons derived from SMA iPS cells (Ebert et al., Nature, 2009, 457:2770; and, Rubin et al., BMC Biology, 2011, 9:42) are treated with test compound at various concentrations for 72 hours. The level of Smn protein in the cell nucleus is quantified using Smn immunostaining and confocal fluorescence microscopy essentially as described in Makhortova et al., Nature Chemical Biology, 2011, 7:544. The level of Smn protein in compound-treated samples is normalized to that in vehicle-treated samples and plotted as a function of the compound concentration.
Results.
As seen in FIG. 10, human motor neurons treated for 72 hours with increasing concentrations of Compound 6 contain progressively more Smn protein in the nucleus.

Protocol.
The tissue samples in Safe-Lock tubes are weighed and the volume of RIPA buffer containing the protease inhibitor cocktail is added based on the weight to volume ratios for each type of tissue: Brain (50 mg/mL), Muscle (50 mg/mL) and Spinal Cord (25 mg/mL).
Tissues are homogenized using the TissueLyzer by bead milling. 5 mm stainless steel beads are added to the sample and shaken vigorously for 5 minutes at 30 Hz in the TissueLyzer. The samples are then centrifuged for 20 minutes at 14,000×g in a microcentrifuge and the homogenates transferred to the PCR plate. The homogenates are diluted in RIPA buffer to approximately 1 mg/mL for HTRF and approximately 0.5 mg/mL for total protein measurement using the BCA protein assay. For the SMN HTRF assay, 35 μL of the tissue homogenate is transferred to a 384-well plate containing 5 μL of the antibody solution (1:100 dilution of each of the anti-SMNd2 and anti-SMN Kryptate in reconstitution buffer). To provide a control signal, three (3) wells in the plate contain only RIPA Lysis Buffer and, thus, serve as Blank control wells. The plate is centrifuged for 1 minute to bring the solution to the bottom of the wells and then incubated overnight at room temperature. Fluorescence for each well of the plate at 665 nm and 620 nm is measured on an EnVision multilabel plate reader (Perkin-Elmer). The total protein in the tissue homogenate is measured using the BCA assay according to the manufacturer's protocol.
The normalized fluorescence signal is calculated for each sample, Blank and vehicle control well by dividing the signal at 665 nm by the signal at 620 nm. Normalizing the signal accounts for possible fluorescence quenching due to the matrix effect of the tissue homogenate. The ΔF value (a measurement of Smn protein abundance as a percent value) for each tissue sample well is calculated by subtracting the normalized average fluorescence for the Blank control wells from the normalized fluorescence for each tissue sample well, then dividing this difference by the normalized average fluorescence for the Blank control wells and multiplying the resulting value by 100. The ΔF value for each tissue sample well is divided by the total protein quantity (determined using the BCA assay) for that tissue sample. The change in Smn protein abundance for each tissue sample relative to the vehicle control is calculated as the percent difference in the ΔF value of the tissue sample in the presence of the test compound and the averaged ΔF value of the vehicle control signal divided by the averaged ΔF value of the vehicle control signal.

SMN1 Minigene Construct
Preparation of the Minigene Constructs
Using the procedure for the preparation of the SMN2 minigene construct described in Biological Example 1, the SMN1 version of the minigene is generated by replacing the sixth nucleotide of exon 7 (a thymine residue) of the SMN2-A minigene construct to cytosine using site-directed mutagenesis. Thus, similar to the SMN2-A minigene construct, the SMN1 minigene construct has a single adenine residue inserted after nucleic residue 48 of exon 7. The SMN1 minigene construct is referred to as SMN1-A.
Protocol.
HEK293H cells (10,000 cells/well/199 μL) were transfected, using FuGENE-6 reagent, in a 96-well plate with 15 ng of the SMN1-A minigene reporter plasmid per well. Cells were incubated for 24 hours following transfection. Test compounds were serially diluted 3.16-fold in 100% DMSO to generate a 7-point concentration curve. A solution of test compound (1 μL, 200× in DMSO) was added to each test well. 1 μL DMSO was added to each control well. The plate was incubated for 7 hours in a cell culture incubator (37° C., 5% CO2, 100% relative humidity). The cells were then lysed in Cells-To-Ct lysis buffer and the lysates were stored at −80° C.
Two SMN spliced mRNA are generated from the SMN1 minigene. The term “SMN1 minigene FL” refers to the first spliced product containing exon 7, corresponding to full length SMN1 mRNA. The term “SMN1 minigene Δ7” refers to the second product lacking exon 7.
SMN minigene FL and Δ7 mRNA are amplified using the primers in Table 11. Primer SMN Forward C (SEQ ID NO. 11) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in exon 6 (nucleotide 43 to nucleotide 63), primer SMN Reverse A (SEQ ID NO. 2) hybridizes to a nucleotide sequence in the coding sequence of Firefly luciferase. The combination of these two oligonucleotides detects only SMN1 or SMN2 minigenes (RT-PCR) and will not detect endogenous SMN1 or SMN2 genes. Since the HEK293H cells used in Example 16 were transfected with only the human SMN1 minigene, RT-PCR can visualize and quantify only SMN1 minigene full-length and SMN1 minigene Δ7 mRNA.

To synthesize cDNA, 5 μL of lysate, 4 μL of 5× iScript reaction mix, 1 μL of reverse transcriptase, and 10 μL of water are combined and incubated 5 min at 25° C. followed by 30 min at 42° C., followed by 5 min at 85° C. The cDNA solution is stored at −20° C.
To perform endpoint PCR, 5 μL of cDNA, 0.2 μL of 100 μM forward primer, 0.2 μL of 100 μM reverse primer, and 22.5 μL of polymerase super mix are combined in a 96 well semiskirted PCR plate. PCR is carried out at the following temperatures for the indicated time: Step 1: 94° C. (2 min), Step 2: 94° C. (30 sec), Step 3: 55° C. (30 sec), Step 4: 68° C. (1 min), then repeat Steps 2 to 4 for a total of 33 cycles, then hold at 4° C.
10 μL of each PCR sample is electrophoretically separated on a 2% agarose E-gel for 14 minutes stained with dsDNA staining reagents (e.g., ethidium bromide) and visualized using a gel imager.
Results.
As seen in FIG. 17, cells treated with increasing concentrations of Compound 6 (FIG. 17a) and Compound 170 (FIG. 17b) contain progressively more SMN1 minigene FL mRNA and less SMN1 minigene Δ7 mRNA, indicating a correction of SMN1 alternative splicing.
