BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The invention provides a novel class of compounds, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds and methods of using such compounds to treat or prevent diseases and disorders associated with kinase activity, particularly diseases associated with the activity of CDK1, CDK2, CDK4, CDK5, GSK3β, Bcr-abl, Flt-3, c-Kit, PDGFRβ, Mek1, CK1, c-Abl, KDR, IGF-1R, Flt-1, Tek, c-src, FGFR-1 and c-Met kinases.
2. Background
Kinases are involved in many aspects of cellular metabolism, proliferation, differentiation and development. A partial, non-limiting list of kinases include CDK1, CDK2, CDK4, CDK5, GSK3β, Bcr-abl, Flt-3, c-Kit, PDGFRβ, Mek1, CK1, c-Abl, KDR, IGF-1R, Flt-1, Tek, c-src, FGFR-1 and c-Met kinases. Many diseases are associated with abnormal cellular responses triggered by protein kinase-mediated events. Disease areas include autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, neurological and neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, allergies and hormone-related diseases. In particular, kinases have been implicated in various diseases including: diabetes; Alzheimer's disease and mood disorders such as bipolar disorder; CNS disorders such as manic-depressive disorder and neurodegenerative diseases; cardiomyocete hypertrophy; and development and regulation of sperm motility. Further, kinases been implicated in hair loss, schizophrenia and neurotrauma, for example, stroke, traumatic brain surgery and spinal cord trauma. These diseases may be caused by, or result in, the abnormal operation of certain cell signaling pathways, for example, those signaling pathways in which CDK1, CDK2, CDK4, CDK5, GSK3β, Bcr-abl, Flt-3, c-Kit, PDGFRβ, Mek1, CK1, c-Abl, KDR, IGF-1R, Flt-1, Tek, c-src, FGFR-1 and c-Met kinases play a role. Accordingly, molecules that modulate the activity of kinase-mediated signaling are useful as therapeutic agents in the treatment of such diseases.

The invention provides forms of the compound that have the hydroxyl or amine group present in a protected form; these function as prodrugs. Prodrugs are compounds that are converted into an active drug form after administration, through one or more chemical or biochemical transformations. Forms of the compounds of the present invention that are readily converted into the claimed compound under physiological conditions are prodrugs of the claimed compounds and are within the scope of the present invention. Examples of prodrugs include forms where a hydroxyl group is acylated to form a relatively labile ester such as an acetate ester, and forms where an amine group is acylated with the carboxylate group of glycine or an L-amino acid such as serine, forming an amide bond that is particularly susceptible to hydrolysis by common metabolic enzymes. The present invention also includes both the enzymatically phosphorylated or dephosphorylated compounds of Formula I, optionally in equilibrium.

Compounds of Formula I and their salts in hydrate or solvate form are also part of the invention.
When the compounds of Formula I have asymmetric centers in the molecule, various optical isomers are obtained. The present invention also encompasses enantiomers, racemates, diastereoisomers and mixtures thereof. Moreover, when the compounds of Formula I include geometric isomers, the present invention embraces cis-compounds, trans-compounds and mixtures thereof. Similar considerations apply in relation to starting materials exhibiting asymmetric carbon atoms or unsaturated bonds as mentioned above.

Additional Processes for Preparing Compounds of the Invention:
A compound of the invention can be prepared as a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt by reacting the free base form of the compound with a pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic or organic acid. Alternatively, a pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salt of a compound of the invention can be prepared by reacting the free acid form of the compound with a pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic or organic base. Alternatively, the salt forms of the compounds of the invention can be prepared using salts of the starting materials or intermediates.
The free acid or free base forms of the compounds of the invention can be prepared from the corresponding base addition salt or acid addition salt from, respectively. For example a compound of the invention in an acid addition salt form can be converted to the corresponding free base by treating with a suitable base (e.g., ammonium hydroxide solution, sodium hydroxide, and the like). A compound of the invention in a base addition salt form can be converted to the corresponding free acid by treating with a suitable acid (e.g., hydrochloric acid, etc.).
Compounds of the invention in unoxidized form can be prepared from N-oxides of compounds of the invention by treating with a reducing agent (e.g., sulfur, sulfur dioxide, triphenyl phosphine, lithium borohydride, sodium borohydride, phosphorus trichloride, tribromide, or the like) in a suitable inert organic solvent (e.g. acetonitrile, ethanol, aqueous dioxane, or the like) at 0 to 80° C.
Prodrug derivatives of the compounds of the invention can be prepared by methods known to those of ordinary skill in the art (e.g., for further details see Saulnier et al., (1994), Bioorganic and Medicinal Chemistry Letters, Vol. 4, p. 1985). For example, appropriate prodrugs can be prepared by reacting a non-derivatized compound of the invention with a suitable carbamylating agent (e.g., 1,1-acyloxyalkylcarbanochloridate, para-nitrophenyl carbonate, or the like).
Protected derivatives of the compounds of the invention can be made by means known to those of ordinary skill in the art. A detailed description of techniques applicable to the creation of protecting groups and their removal can be found in T W. Greene, “Protecting Groups in Organic Chemistry”, 3rd edition, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 1999.
Compounds of the present invention can be conveniently prepared, or formed during the process of the invention, as solvates (e.g., hydrates). Hydrates of compounds of the present invention can be conveniently prepared by recrystallization from an aqueous/organic solvent mixture, using organic solvents such as dioxin, tetrahydrofuran or methanol.
Compounds of the invention can be prepared as their individual stereoisomers by reacting a racemic mixture of the compound with an optically active resolving agent to form a pair of diastereoisomeric compounds, separating the diastereomers and recovering the optically pure enantiomers. While resolution of enantiomers can be carried out using covalent diastereomeric derivatives of the compounds of the invention, dissociable complexes are preferred (e.g., crystalline diastereomeric salts). Diastereomers have distinct physical properties (e.g., melting points, boiling points, solubilities, reactivity, etc.) and can be readily separated by taking advantage of these dissimilarities. The diastereomers can be separated by chromatography, or preferable, by separation/resolution techniques based upon differences in solubility. The optically pure enantiomer is then recovered, along with the resolving agent, by any practical means that would not result in racemization. A more detailed description of the techniques applicable to the resolution of stereoisomers of compounds from their racemic mixture can be found in Jean Jacques, Andre Collet, Samuel H. Wilen, “Enantiomers, Racemates and Resolutions”, John Wiley And Sons, Inc., 1981.

The compounds of Formula I can be administered in free form or in pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, for example, as indicated above. Such salts can be prepared in a conventional manner and exhibit the same order of activity as the free compounds.
Also provided by the invention are compounds of Formula I, in free form or in a pharmaceutically acceptable salt form for use in treatment of conditions such as those described above. Pharmaceutical compositions, that includes a compound of Formula I in free form or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, in association with a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent or carrier thereof are also provided by the invention.
Also provided by the invention are methods involving co-administration, e.g. concomitantly or in sequence, of a therapeutically effective non-toxic amount of a compound of Formula I and at least a second drug substance. For example, the compounds of Formula I can be administered as the sole active ingredient or in conjunction with, e.g. as an adjuvant to, other drugs e.g. a COX-II inhibitor, an anti-depressant or anxiolytic compound, a NK-1 receptor antagonist, a 5HT1D receptor antagonist, a SSRI, an antipsychotic compound, an acetyl cholinesterase inhibitor, a tissue plasminogen activator, a neutrophil inhibitory factor, a NMDA receptor antagonist or a potassium channel modulator.
Where the compounds of Formula I are administered in conjunction with other therapies, dosages of the co-administered compounds will of course vary depending on the type of co-drug employed, on the specific drug employed, on the condition being treated and so forth.
Also provided by the invention are pharmaceutical combinations, e.g. a kit, comprising a) a first agent which is a compound of Formula I as disclosed herein, in free form or in pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, and b) at least one co-agent, e.g. a COX-II inhibitor, an anti-depressant or anxiolytic compound, a NK-1 receptor antagonist, a 5HT1D receptor antagonist, a SSRI, an antipsychotic compound, an acetyl cholinesterase inhibitor, a tissue plasminogen activator, a neutrophil inhibitory factor, a NMDA receptor antagonist or a potassium channel modulator. The kit can comprise instructions for its administration.
The terms “co-administration” or “combined administration” or the like as utilized herein are meant to encompass administration of the selected therapeutic agents to a single patient, and are intended to include treatment regimens in which the agents are not necessarily administered by the same route of administration or at the same time.
The term “pharmaceutical combination” as used herein means a product that results from the mixing or combining of more than one active ingredient and includes both fixed and non-fixed combinations of the active ingredients. The term “fixed combination” means that the active ingredients, e.g. a compound of Formula I and a co-agent, are both administered to a patient simultaneously in the form of a single entity or dosage. The term “non-fixed combination” means that the active ingredients, e.g. a compound of Formula I and a co-agent, are both administered to a patient as separate entities either simultaneously, concurrently or sequentially with no specific time limits, wherein such administration provides therapeutically effective levels of the 2 compounds in the body of the patient. The latter also applies to cocktail therapy, e.g. the administration of 3 or more active ingredients.

Compounds of Formula I Exhibit Biological Activity
Compounds of Formula I exhibit inhibitory activity against CDK1, CDK2, CDK4, CDK5, GSK3β, Bcr-abl, Flt-3, c-Kit, PDGFRβ, Mek1, CK1, c-Abl, KDR, IGF-1R, Flt-1, Tek, c-src, FGFR-1 and c-Met kinases. The specific activity of compounds of Formula I can be determined to inhibit the above kinases using biological assays known to those of ordinary skill in the art, for example the CDK5 and GSK3β assays described below:
CDK5/p25 Assay
Solutions of test compounds in various concentrations (33 μM to 0.6 nM) were prepared in assay buffer (50 mM MOPS, pH7.2, 5 mM MgCl2). Recombinant CDK5 (in 5 μl of assay buffer) is added to the wells of a 384 well ProxiPlateTM. A solution (10 μl) containing 1.5 μM ATP, 1.5 μM of biotinylated CDK5 substrate peptide (LCB-AGAKKAVKKTPKKAKKP), 0.01 mCi/ml of [γ-33P]-ATP in assay buffer is added to the wells. The reaction is incubated for 60 minutes at room temperature before the addition of stop solution (10 μl of 50 mM ATP, 5 mM of EDTA, 0.1% Triton X-100 and 5 mg/ml streptavadin-PVT beads in PBS). The plates are centrifuged for 2 minutes at 2000 rpm and the scintillation signal is quantified using the TopCount (Packard). IC50s are calculated using XLfit software.
GSK3β Assay
Solutions of test compounds in various concentrations (33 μM to 0.6 nM) were prepared in assay buffer (50 mM MOPS, pH7.2, 5 mM MgCl2). Recombinant GSK3β (in 5 μl of assay buffer) is added to the wells of a 384 well ProxiPlateTM. A solution (10 μl) containing 1.5 μM ATP, 1.5 μM of biotinylated CDK5 substrate peptide (biotin-YRRAAVPPSPSLSRHSSPHQ(pS)EDEEE) for 60 minutes at room temperature before the addition of stop solution (10 μl of 50 mM ATP, 5 mM of EDTA, 0.1% Triton X-100 and 5 mg/ml streptavadin-PVT beads in PBS). The plates are centrifuged for 2 minutes at 2000 rpm and the scintillation signal is quantified using the TopCount (Packard). IC50s are calculated using XLfit software.
