The International Application was published in Japanese on Dec. 5, 2013, as International Publication No. WO 2013/180183 A1 under PCT Article 21(2).
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a novel aromatic heterocyclic derivative and a pharmaceutical composition containing the same as an active ingredient.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
ROS tyrosine kinase is a receptor-type protein tyrosine kinase similar to the EGF receptor, and it is considered that the ROS tyrosine kinase participates in signal transduction relative to proliferation and differentiation of cells (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 1).
Up to date, changes in the gene expression level of the ROS tyrosine kinase in some malignant tumors have been reported. For example, overexpression of the ROS tyrosine kinase is reported in glioma, meningioma, infiltrating ductal carcinoma, and so on (see, for example, Non-Patent Documents 2, 3 and 4), and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 5).
In addition, there are found: FIG-ROS fusion gene in a glioblastoma cell line (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 6); SLC34A2-ROS fusion gene in a non-small cell lung cancer cell line (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 7); CD74-ROS fusion gene, FIG-ROS fusion gene, TPM3-ROS fusion gene, SDC4-ROS fusion gene, EZR-ROS fusion gene, LRIG3-ROS fusion gene, CCDC6-ROS fusion gene, and KDELR2-ROS fusion gene in non-small cell lung cancer clinical specimens (see, for example, Patent Documents 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11); FIG-ROS fusion gene in cholangiocarcinoma clinical specimens (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 12); FIG-ROS fusion gene in ovarian cancer clinical specimens (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 13); SLC34A2-ROS fusion gene in gastric cancer clinical specimens (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 14); CEP85L-ROS fusion gene in angiosarcoma clinical specimens (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 15); and YWHAE-ROS fusion gene and TFG-ROS1 fusion gene in inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor clinical specimens (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 16). It is reported that these fusion genes are oncogenes (see, for example, Non-Patent Documents 9 and 17). In addition, the ROS tyrosine kinase is a homologue of the transforming gene v-ros of the avian sarcoma virus (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 18), and it is considered that activation of the ROS tyrosine kinase is associated with oncogenesis.
Furthermore, even in liver cancer, kidney cancer, pancreatic cancer, testicular cancer (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 1), epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 15), colorectal cancer (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 19), liposarcoma, breast cancer (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 20), and Spitzoid neoplasms (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 21), a possibility of the presence of ROS fusion genes or occurrence of abnormality in the ROS tyrosine kinase is suggested.
Recently, it has been reported that crizotinib, which is a medicine having ROS inhibitory activity, is effective for patients of non-small cell lung cancer with ROS fusion gene positive in the clinical application (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 22).
From the foregoing, it is considered that the ROS tyrosine kinase inhibitor is effective as a treating agent for the malignant tumors as described previously.
In addition, overexpression of an ROS tyrosine kinase is seen in interstitial pneumonia, and a possibility that the ROS tyrosine kinase plays an important role for the onset of interstitial pneumonia is suggested (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 23); and a possibility that the ROS tyrosine kinase inhibitor is effective for the interstitial pneumonia is considered. Furthermore, in view of the fact that ROS tyrosine kinase knockout male mice are male infertile, a possibility that the ROS tyrosine kinase inhibitor is effective as a male contraceptive is considered (see, for example, Non-Patent Documents 24 and 25).

Test Example 1
ROS Tyrosine Kinase and JAK2 Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitory Activity Test
1. Preparation of Test Substance:
A test substance was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to 10 mM and further diluted with DMSO to concentrations of 100-fold of the concentrations to be measured (100, 10, 1, 0.1, and 0.01 μM). Furthermore, the resultant was diluted with an assay buffer to 20-fold, thereby preparing a solution as a test substance solution. A solution prepared by diluting DMSO with an assay buffer to 20-fold was used as a negative control. A buffer containing 15 mM Tris-Cl (pH 7.5), 0.01 (v/v) % Tween-20, and 1 mM dithiothreitol was used as the assay buffer.
2. Measurement of ROS Tyrosine Kinase Activity and JAK2 Tyrosine Kinase Activity:
The activity was measured by adopting the ELISA method. Each of the test substance solutions was added to a streptavidine-coated 96-well plate (DELFIA Strip Plate 8×12 wells, PerkinElmer Co., Ltd,) at 10 μL per well (n=2), and a substrate solution (625 nM biotinylated peptide substrate, 25 μM ATP, 25 mM MgCl2, 15 mM Tris-Cl (pH 7.5), 0.01 (v/v) % Tween-20, and 1 mM dithiothreitol) was added to the plate at 20 μL per well, and the resulting mixture was stirred. Finally, an ROS kinase or a JAK2 kinase (derived from humans, Carna Biosciences, Inc.) (diluted with the assay buffer to 0.25 nM) was added to the plate at 20 μL per well, and the resulting mixture was stirred. A reaction was performed at 30° C. for one hour. After the plate was washed 4 times with a washing buffer (50 mM Tris-Cl (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, and 0.02 (v/v) % Tween-20), a blocking buffer (0.1% bovine serum albumin, 50 mM Tris-Cl (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, and 0.02 (v/v) % Tween-20) was added to the plate at 150 μL per well, and incubated at 30° C. for 30 minutes. The blocking buffer was then removed, and a horse radish peroxidase-labeled anti-phosphorylated tyrosine antibody (BD Biosciences, Inc.) (diluted with the blocking buffer to 10,000-fold) was added to the plate at 100 μL per well, and the plate was incubated at 30° C. for 30 minutes. After the plate was washed 4 times with the washing buffer, a 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine solution (Sigma-Aldrich Co., Ltd.) was added to the plate at 100 μL per well to develop the color for 10 minutes. The reaction was stopped by adding 0.1 M sulfuric acid at 100 μL per well. An absorbance at 450 nm was measured with a microplate reader (Model 3550, manufactured by BIO-RAD, Benchmark, manufactured by BIO-RAD, or iMARK, manufactured by BIO-RAD).
3. Analysis of Measurement Results:
A non-linear regression analysis was performed for the measured absorbance with an SAS system (SAS Institute Inc.), and a concentration of each of the test substances of inhibiting the ROS tyrosine kinase activity or JAK2 tyrosine kinase activity at 50% (IC50) was calculated. The inhibitory activity (IC50, nM) of each of the test substances against the ROS tyrosine kinase or JAK2 tyrosine kinase is shown in Tables 6 to 8.

Test Example 2
Proliferation Inhibitory Activity Test Against FIG-ROS/BaF3 Cell
1. Cell Seeding:
A BaF3 cell which had been transformed by introducing the FIG-ROS fusion gene (derived from U118MG human glioma cell) (FIG-ROS/BaF3 Cell) was prepared on a culture medium, seeded on a 96-well plate in the number of 1×103/100 μL per well, and then allowed to stand in a CO2 incubator (at 37° C. and 5% CO2). As the culture medium, 10% FBS (fetal bovine serum)-incorporated RPMI-1640 was used.
2. Proliferation Inhibitory Activity Test:
A test substance was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to 10 mM and further diluted with DMSO to 100-fold to prepare a 100 μM solution. This was diluted with a 1% DMSO-incorporated medium to concentrations of 10-fold of the concentration to be measured (10,000, 1,000, 100, 10, and 1 nM). Each of the medicine solutions was added at 11 μL per well and mixed. To a control having no medicine added thereto, a 1% DMSO-incorporated medium was added, and incubated in a CO2 incubator (at 37° C. and 5% CO2) for 3 days. After completion of the incubation, the number of live cells was counted using a cell counting kit. First of all, each cell counting kit solution was added at 5 μL per well and mixed, and incubated in a CO2 incubator (at 37° C. and 5% CO2) for 4 hours. An absorbance at 450 nm was measured with a microplate reader (Model 3550, manufactured by BIO-RAD, Benchmark, manufactured by BIO-RAD, or iMARK, manufactured by BIO-RAD) with a reference wavelength of 650 nm.
3. Analysis of Measurement Results:
A non-linear regression analysis was performed for the measured absorbance with an SAS system (SAS Institute Inc.), and a concentration of each of the test substances of inhibiting the cell proliferation at 50% (IC50) was calculated. The proliferation inhibitory activity (IC50, nM) of each of the test substances against the FIG-ROS/BaF3 cell is shown in Table 9.
