BACKGROUND
Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a multi-enzyme protein complex that catalyzes the synthesis of fatty acids involved in energy production and storage, cellular structure and formation of intermediates in the biosynthesis of hormones and other biologically significant molecules (Nature Reviews Cancer, 2007, 7, 763-777). FASN is composed of two identical 272 kDa multifunctional polypeptides. As its main function, it catalyzes the synthesis of palmitate from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, in the presence of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH). In normal human tissues (with the exception of liver and adipose tissue), fatty acids are preferentially acquired from the diet, and expression of FASN levels are low. In contrast, FASN expression and activity is highly elevated in several pathological states including cancer, inflammatory and metabolic diseases. In particular, evidence shows that increased endogenous fatty acid synthesis is critical for tumorigenesis.
Cancer is a disease of accelerated cell growth and proliferation. Cancer cells adapt metabolically to increase levels of lipids to support their anabolic requirements. Increased synthesis of fatty acids represents a fundamental metabolic adaptation of cancer cells and is facilitated by high levels of FASN expression. Increased expression of FASN is an early event in tumorigenesis and is found in numerous tumor types, often correlating with a poor prognosis (Nature Reviews Cancer, 2007, 7, 763-777). FASN gene amplification and protein overexpression was observed in human breast, ovarian, prostate, colon, lung, bladder, stomach and kidney cancers suggesting FASN as a potential drug target and marker of poor prognosis (Nature Reviews Cancer, 2007, 7, 763-777; Anticancer Res. 2007, 27, 27-34; Cancer Res., 2006, 66, 5977-5980, Nutrition, 2000, 16, 202-208).
In addition to tumor cells, immune cells metabolically adapt, proliferate and differentiate into distinct functional classes in response to immunogenic stimuli. Studies have demonstrated that lipogenesis plays a critical role in immune responses and metabolic adaptation of activated immune cells. Inhibition of fatty acid synthesis during T-cell differentiation result in a switch from Th17 to Treg cells, suggesting a novel approach to treat autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, and to modulate immune responses (Nature Medicine, 2014, 20, 1327-1333). Similarly, de novo fatty acid synthesis is critical for CD8+T cell expansion and dendritic cell activation (Nature Immunology, 2014, 15, 323-332). These results demonstrate that modulation of the fatty acid synthesis pathway might represent a strategy to control immune responses and to treat a wide range of autoimmune diseases.
FASN has been implicated as an important enzyme promoting a life cycle of multiple viruses and microorganisms. De novo lipid biosynthesis has been shown to be necessary for replication of the Flaviviridae family including Hepatitis C Virus, Dengue virus, yellow fever virus, West Nile virus and others (Chemistry and Biology, 2013, 570-582). Inhibition of FASN by small molecule inhibitors such as Cerulenin and Orlistat resulted in a strong inhibition of viral replication. Other viruses also depend on FASN activity including human cytomegalo virus (HCMV) influenza A, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3). Numerous genome wide screens identified multiple host genes involved in lipid metabolism which are crucial for replication of viruses and increased expression FASN is often required for efficient viral replication (Nature Biotechnology, 2008, 26, 179-186). Taken together, these results provide a strong rationale for targeting FASN for the antiviral therapy.
Fatty acid accumulation is associated with variety of metabolic diseases and has been shown to contribute to their pathogenesis. The non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis (NASH), also called fatty liver disease, encompasses a spectrum of liver diseases (steatosis, steatosis with inflammation, cirrhosis) characterized by a fatty acid accumulation in hepatocytes. Currently, NASH is the most common liver disease in developed countries and is associated with obesity, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Studies in animal models demonstrated that pharmacological inhibition of FASN improved hepatic function and decreased liver fat accumulation (PloS One, 2013, 9, 1-8).
FASN is highly expressed in tissues with high metabolic activity (liver, adipose tissue and brain), and is a critical enzyme for endogenous lipogenesis and modulation of key intermediates of lipid and carbohydrate cellular metabolism. A FASN inhibitor has been proposed for treatment of obesity, and inhibition of FASN in the hypothalamus may result in reduced food intake. The non-specific irreversible FASN inhibitors cerulenin and C-75 have been reported to decrease brain levels of orexigenic neuropeptides and decrease food intake. Therefore, FASN inhibition represents a therapeutic target in a wide spectrum of pathologies including cancer, antiviral, liver and cardiovascular diseases and treatment of obesity, diabetes and drug-induced body weight gain; e.g. antipsychotics.
Recent advances in the treatment and management of cancer show that many anti-cancer therapies lead to profound changes in tumor metabolism. Inhibition of BRAF signaling by vemurafenib and inhibition of BCR-ABL by imatinib led to increased oxidative phosphorylation (Pollak M, (2013) Targeting Oxidative Phosphorylation: Why, When and How; Cancer Cell 18, 263-63). Such a drug-induced reprogramming of cellular metabolism from glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation might create a dependency on lipids which could be exploited therapeutically by use of FASN inhibitors. In yet another example, it was demonstrated that cessation of the anti-angiogenic therapy by sunitinib and sorafenib resulted in a rapid regrowth of tumors and increased metastasis which were mediated by a rapid metabolic switch of tumor and stromal cells to de novo lipogenesis. Pharmacological inhibition of FASN was sufficient to reverse tumor regrowth and metastatic dissemination further confirming the role of lipid metabolism in tumor adaptation to anti-cancer therapies (Sounni N E, Cimino J, Blacher S, Primac I, Truong A, Mazucchelli G, Paye A, calligaris D, Debois D, mari B, de pauw E, Noel A (2014) Blocking Lipid Synthesis Overcomes Tumor Regrowth and Metastasis after Angiogenic Therapy Withdrawal; Cell Metabolism 20, 1-15) and providing a rationale for combinatorial treatments using FASN inhibitors.

The following terms and expressions have meanings as discussed below.
As used herein, the term “about” refers to a range of values from ±10% of a specified value. For example, the phrase “about 50” would be understood to include ±10% of 50, or from 45 to 55. The phrase “from about 10 to 100” includes ±10% of 10 and ±10% of 100, or from 9 to 110.
As used herein, a range of integer values in the form “x-y” or “x to y”, or “x through y”, includes the integers x and y, and includes all of the integers between x and y. For example, the expressions “1-6”, or “1 to 6” or “1 through 6” are intended to include the integers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Preferred embodiments include each individual integer in the range, as well as any subcombination of integers. For example, preferred integers for the expression “1-6” can include 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 1-5, 2-3, 2-4, 2-5, 2-6, etc.
The term “acyl” means a radical of the general formula —C(═O)—R, wherein —R is hydrogen or hydrocarbyl. Examples include, acetyl (—C(═O)CH3), propionyl (—C(═O)CH2CH3), benzoyl (—C(═O)C6H5), and phenylacetyl (—C(═O)CH2C6H5).
The term “alkyl”, by itself or as part of another substituent means, a straight, branched or cyclic chain hydrocarbon radical, including di- and multi-radicals, having the number of carbon atoms designated (i.e. C1-C6 designates an alkyl group having from one to six carbons), and includes straight, branched chain or cyclic groups. Examples of alkyl groups include: methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, pentyl, neopentyl, hexyl, cyclohexyl and cyclopropylmethyl.
The term “alkylene,” by itself or as part of another substituent means a divalent straight, branched or cyclic chain hydrocarbon radical having the stated number of carbon atoms. For example, —(C1-C3)-alkylene-CO2H, would include, e.g., —CH2CH2CH2—CO2H, —CH2CH(CH3)—CO2H, —C(CH3)2— CO2H, -cyclopropyl-CO2H, and —CH(CH3)—CH2—CO2H.
The term “alkoxy,” employed alone or in combination with other terms means an alkyl group having the designated number of carbon atoms, as defined above, connected to the rest of the molecule via an oxygen atom, such as, for example, methoxy, ethoxy, 1-propoxy, 2-propoxy(isopropoxy) and the higher homologs and isomers.
The term “alkenyl,” employed alone or in combination with other terms, means a stable monounsaturated or di-unsaturated hydrocarbon radical straight chain, branched chain or cyclic hydrocarbon group having the stated number of carbon atoms.

As used herein, a “therapeutically effective amount” refers to an amount of a compound of the present invention that is effective to treat or prevent the symptoms of a particular disorder. Such disorders include, but are not limited to; those pathological and neurological disorders associated with the aberrant activity of the receptors described herein, wherein the treatment or prevention comprises inhibiting the activity thereof by contacting the receptor with a compound of the present invention.
As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable” refers to those compounds, materials, compositions, and/or dosage forms which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for contact with the tissues of human beings and animals without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problem complications commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to salts of compounds of the present invention that may be derived from the combination of such compounds with non-toxic acid or base addition salts.
Acid addition salts include inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydroiodic, sulfuric, nitric and phosphoric acid, as well as organic acids such as acetic, citric, propionic, trifluoroacetic, tartaric, glutamic, salicylic, oxalic, methanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, para-toluenesulfonic, succinic, and benzoic acid, and related inorganic and organic acids.
Base addition salts include those derived from inorganic bases such as ammonium and alkali and alkaline earth metal hydroxides, carbonates, and bicarbonates, as well as salts derived from basic organic amines such as aliphatic and aromatic amines, aliphatic diamines, and hydroxy alkamines. Such bases useful in preparing the salts of this invention thus include, for example, ammonium hydroxide, potassium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, calcium hydroxide, methylamine, diethylamine, ethylenediamine, cyclohexylamine, diisopropylethyl amine (DIPEA), ethanolamine.
In addition to pharmaceutically-acceptable salts, other salts are included in the invention. They may serve as intermediates in the purification of the compounds, in the preparation of other salts, or in the identification and characterization of the compounds or intermediates.
The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of compounds of the present invention can also exist as various solvates, such as with water, methanol, ethanol, dimethylformamide, ethyl acetate and THF. Mixtures of such solvates can also be prepared. The source of such solvate can be from the solvent of crystallization, inherent in the solvent of preparation or crystallization, or adventitious to such solvent. Such solvates are within the scope of the present invention.
It will be understood that compounds of the present invention may exist in various stereoisomeric forms. As such, the compounds of the present invention include both diastereomers and enantiomers. The compounds may be prepared as racemates and can conveniently be used as such. However, individual enantiomers can be isolated by resolution or chiral separation of a racemate, or may be synthesized by conventional techniques if so desired. Such racemates and individual enantiomers and mixtures thereof form part of the present invention.
It is known in the art how to prepare and isolate such optically active forms. Specific stereoisomers can be prepared by stereospecific synthesis using enantiomerically pure or enantiomerically enriched starting materials. The specific stereoisomers of either starting materials or products can be resolved and recovered by techniques known in the art, such as resolution of racemic forms, normal, reverse-phase, chiral chromatography, recrystallization, enzymatic resolution, or fractional recrystallization of addition salts formed by reagents used for that purpose. Useful methods of resolving and recovering specific stereoisomers described in Eliel, E. L.; Wilen, S. H. Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds; Wiley: New York, 1994, and Jacques, J, et al. Enantiomers, Racemates, and Resolutions; Wiley: New York, 1981.
It is further recognized that functional groups present on intermediates used for the synthesis of the compounds of Formula I may contain protecting groups. For example, the amino acid side chain substituents of the compounds of Formula I can be substituted with protecting groups such as benzyloxycarbonyl or t-butoxycarbonyl groups. Protecting groups are known per se as chemical functional groups that can be selectively appended to and removed from functionalities, such as hydroxyl groups and carboxyl groups. These groups are present in a chemical compound to render such functionality inert to chemical reaction conditions to which the compound is exposed. Any of a variety of protecting groups may be employed with the present invention. Preferred groups for protecting lactams include silyl groups such as t-butyldimethylsilyl (“TBDMS”), dimethoxybenzhydryl (“DMB”), acyl, benzyl (“Bn”), methoxybenzyl, and dimethoxy (e.g., 2-4-dimethoxy) benzyl groups. Preferred groups for protecting hydroxy groups include TBS, acyl, benzyl, benzyloxycarbonyl (“CBZ”), t-butyloxycarbonyl (“Boc”), and methoxymethyl. Many other standard protecting groups employed by one skilled in the art can be found in Greene, T. W. and Wuts, P. G. M., “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis” 2d. Ed., Wiley & Sons, 1991.
The compounds described herein are also intended to include such compounds wherein the molecular structures include isotopes of atoms in the chemical structure, e.g., carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen sulfur, and other atoms occurring on those structures. Isotopes include those atoms having the same atomic number but different mass numbers. For example, isotopes of hydrogen include deuterium; isotopes of carbon include 13C; isotopes of nitrogen include 15N; and isotopes of sulfur include 33S.
Accordingly, within the chemical structure of any compound that is taught in this application:

    
    
        any hydrogen atom or group of hydrogen atoms, e.g., in a hydrocarbyl, heteroalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, heterocyclyl or carbocyclyl group, could suitably be replaced by an isotope of hydrogen, i.e., deuterium;
        any carbon atom or group of carbon atoms, e.g., in a hydrocarbyl, heteroalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, heterocyclyl or carbocyclyl group, could suitably be replaced by an isotope of carbon, e.g., 13C;
        any nitrogen atom or group of nitrogen atoms, e.g., in a heteroalkyl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclyl group, could suitably be replaced by an isotope of nitrogen, e.g., 15N; and
        any sulfur atom or group of sulfur atoms, e.g., in a heteroalkyl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclyl group, could suitably be replaced by an isotope of sulfur, e.g., 33S.
    
    


As used herein, a compound that is termed “isotopically-enriched” means that the abundance, e.g., of deuterium, 13C, or 15N or 33S at any relevant site of the compound is substantially more than the abundance of deuterium, 13C, or 15N or 33S naturally occurring at that site in an amount of the compound. A relevant site in a compound as used above is a site which would be designated as “H” or “C” or “N” or “S” in a chemical structure representation of the compound when not enriched. Relevant sites in the chemical structure of compounds taught herein for isotopic replacement an atom or atoms can include any site that is synthetically accessible for such isotopic replacement. The expression, “naturally occurring,” as used above refers to the abundance of the particular atom which would be present at a relevant site in a compound if the compound was prepared without any affirmative synthesis step to enrich the abundance of a different isotope.
Thus, for example in a “deuterium-enriched” compound, the abundance of deuterium at any relevant site in the chemical structure can range from an amount that is substantially more than the natural abundance of deuterium (about 0.0115%) up to 100%, for example, from about 1% to about 100%, or from about 10% to about 100%, or from about 50% to about 100%, or from about 90% to about 100%.
Similarly, for a “13C-enriched” compound, the abundance of 13C at any relevant site in the chemical structure of the compound can range from an amount that is substantially more than the natural abundance of 13C (about 1.109%) all the way up to 100%, for example, from about 5% to about 100%, or from about 10% to about 100%, or from about 50% to about 100%, or from about 90% to about 100%. Similarly for a “15N-enriched” compound, the abundance of 15N at any relevant site in the chemical structure of the compound can range from an amount that is substantially more than the natural abundance of 15N (about 0.364%) all the way up to 100%, for example, from about 1% to about 100%, or from about 10% to about 100%, or from about 50% to about 100%, or from about 90% to about 100%.
Isotopically-enriched compounds can generally be prepared by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art. Such isotopically-enriched compounds can also be prepared by adapting conventional processes as described in the scientific literature for synthesis of compounds disclosed herein, and using an appropriate isotopically-substituted reagent (or reagents) in place of the corresponding non isotopically-substituted reagent(s) employed in the conventional synthesis of the non isotopically-enriched compounds. Examples of ways to obtain a deuterium-enriched compound include exchanging hydrogen with deuterium or synthesizing the compound with deuterium-enriched starting materials.
As used herein, the term “unit dose” refers to a single dose which is capable of being administered to a patient, and which can be readily handled and packaged, remaining as a physically and chemically stable unit dose comprising either the active compound itself, or as a pharmaceutically acceptable composition, as described herein.
All other terms that are used herein in the description of the present invention will be understood to have meanings such as would be understood and accepted in the art.
For therapeutic purposes, the compounds that are described herein may be administered to a subject by any means that results in the contact of the active agent with the agent's site of action in the body of the subject. The compounds may be administered by any conventional means available for use in conjunction with pharmaceuticals, either as individual therapeutic agents, or in combination with other therapeutic agents. The compounds are preferably administered in therapeutically effective amounts for the treatment of the diseases and disorders described herein to a subject in need thereof.
A therapeutically effective amount of a compound as described herein may be readily determined by an attending diagnostician, as one skilled in the art, by the use of conventional techniques. The effective dose will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the type of disease or disorder treated, the extent of progression of the disease or disorder, the overall health status of the subject to be treated, the relative biological efficacy of the compound selected, the formulation of the active agent, and the route of administration used in treatment. Typically, the compounds are initially administered at lower dosage levels, with a gradual increase until the desired therapeutic effect is obtained.
Typical dose ranges may be from about 0.01 mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg of body weight per day, or from about 0.01 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg of body weight per day. Daily doses for adult humans may include about 25, 50, 100 and 200 mg, and an equivalent dose in a human child. The compounds may be administered in one or more unit dose forms. The unit dose may range from about 1 to about 500 mg administered one to four times a day, e.g., from about 10 mg to about 300 mg, administered two times a day. In an alternate method of describing an effective dose, an oral unit dose is one that is necessary to achieve a therapeutic blood serum level, e.g., a blood serum level of about 0.05 to 20 micrograms/mL in a subject, or about 1 to 20 micrograms/mL. The compounds described herein may be administered as the pure chemicals; however it is preferable to administer the active ingredient as a pharmaceutical composition.
Generally, compounds described herein may be administered to a patient alone or in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Accordingly, the compounds of the invention, for example, compounds of Formulae I-V(a), are preferably combined with a pharmaceutical carrier selected on the basis of the chosen route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice—as described, for example, in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences (Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa., 1980), the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference, in their entireties. The carrier(s) must be acceptable in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the composition and not deleterious to the subject. The relative proportions of active ingredient and carrier may be determined, for example, by the solubility and chemical nature of the compounds, the chosen route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice.
The compounds described herein may be formulated into pharmaceutical compositions by admixture with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The excipients may be selected on the basis of the chosen route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice, as described, for example, in Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 20th ed.; Gennaro, A. R., Ed.; Lippincott Williams & Wilkins: Philadelphia, Pa., 2000. The compositions may be formulated to control and/or delay the release of the active agent(s), as in fast-dissolve, modified-release, or sustained-release formulations.
According to some embodiments of the invention, a pharmaceutical composition herein may contain both an amount of a FASN inhibitor having a chemical structure as described herein, and an amount of an antipsychotic agent. Suitable antipsychotic agents for such a dual API pharmaceutical composition include, for example, clozapine, risperidone, aripiprazole, olanzapine, quetiapine and ziprasidone. Such a dual API pharmaceutical composition may contain, for example, per dosage unit, from about 5 to about 1000 mg, or more, of a FASN inhibitor having a chemical structure as described herein, and from about 5 to about 1000 mg of an antipsychoric agent. In such embodiment, it is not necessary that each single dosage unit include an effective amount so long as the total amount of drug administered to a patient is an effective amount of each. Therefore, for example, a patient may require two or more single dosage units to receive effective amounts of both agents. The dosage may be adjusted appropriately to achieve desired drug levels, locally or systemically of both drugs.
The compositions can be prepared for administration by oral means; parenteral means, including intravenous, intramuscular, and subcutaneous routes; topical or transdermal means; transmucosal means, including rectal, vaginal, sublingual and buccal routes; ophthalmic means; or inhalation means. Preferably the compositions are prepared for oral administration, particularly in the form of tablets, capsules or syrups; for parenteral administration, particularly in the form of liquid solutions, suspensions or emulsions; for intranasal administration, particularly in the form of powders, nasal drops, or aerosols; or for topical administration, such as creams, ointments, solutions, suspensions aerosols, powders.
For oral administration, e.g., tablets, pills, powders, capsules, and troches, formulations can contain one or more of the following: diluents or fillers such as starch, or cellulose; binders such as microcrystalline cellulose, gelatins, or polyvinylpyrrolidones; disintegrants such as starch or cellulose derivatives; lubricants such as talc or magnesium stearate; glidants such as colloidal silicon dioxide; sweetening agents such as sucrose or saccharin; and flavoring agents such as peppermint or cherry flavoring. Capsules may contain any of the excipients as listed above, and may additionally contain a semi-solid or liquid carrier, such as a polyethylene glycol. Solid oral dosage forms may have coatings of sugar, shellac, or enteric agents. Liquid preparations may be in the form of aqueous or oily suspensions, solutions, emulsions, syrups, elixirs, etc., or may be presented as a dry product for reconstitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may contain conventional additives such as surfactants, suspending agents, emulsifying agents, diluents, sweetening and flavoring agents, dyes and preservatives.
The compositions may also be administered parenterally. The pharmaceutical forms acceptable for injectable use include, for example, sterile aqueous solutions, or suspensions. Aqueous carriers include, for example, mixtures of alcohols and water, and buffered media. Nonaqueous solvents include, for example, alcohols and glycols, such as ethanol, and polyethylene glycols; oils, such as vegetable oils; fatty acids and fatty acid esters. Other components can be added including surfactants; such as hydroxypropylcellulose; isotonic agents, such as sodium chloride; fluid and nutrient replenishers; electrolyte replenishers; agents which control the release of the active compounds, such as aluminum monostearate, and various co-polymers; and antibacterial agents, such as chlorobutanol, or phenol; buffers. The parenteral preparations can be enclosed in ampules, disposable syringes or multiple dose vials. Other potentially useful parenteral delivery systems for the active compounds include ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer particles, osmotic pumps, implantable infusion systems, and liposomes.
Other possible modes of administration include formulations for inhalation, which include such means as dry powder, aerosol, or drops. Formulations for topical use are in the form of an ointment, cream, or gel. Typically these forms include a carrier, such as petrolatum, lanolin, stearyl alcohol, polyethylene glycols, or their combinations, and either an emulsifying agent, such as sodium lauryl sulfate, or a gelling agent, such as tragacanth. Formulations suitable for transdermal administration can be presented as discrete patches, as in a reservoir or microreservoir system, adhesive diffusion-controlled system or a matrix dispersion-type system. Formulations for buccal administration include, for example lozenges or pastilles and may also include a flavored base, such as sucrose or acacia, and other excipients such as glycocholate. Formulations suitable for rectal administration are preferably presented as unit-dose suppositories, with a solid based carrier, such as cocoa butter, and may include a salicylate.
Pharmaceutical kits may comprise a therapeutically effective amount of a therapeutic compound as described herein, in one or more sterile containers are also within the ambit of the present invention. Sterilization of the container may be carried out using conventional sterilization methodology well known to those skilled in the art. The sterile containers of materials may comprise separate containers, or one or more multi-part containers. The compound as described herein may be separate, or may be combined into a single dosage form as described above. Such kits may further include, if desired, one or more of various conventional pharmaceutical kit components, e.g., one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, additional vials for mixing the components, etc., as will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art. Instructions, either as inserts or as labels, indicating quantities of the components to be administered, guidelines for administration, and/or guidelines for mixing the components, may also be included in such a kit.

        gastrointestinal disorders,
        dermatological disorders,
        metabolic diseases (e.g., non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis (NASH)) and Type 2 diabetes. (NASH is a serious liver disease for which the pathogenesis and prognosis have not been clearly determined. It is generally believed that abnormal fatty acid metabolism may be involved in the pathogenesis of NASH, with triacylglycerols and their fatty acid precursors likely possibly accumulating in the hepatocyte.)
        viral disorders wherein FASN inhibition correlates inhibition of viral replication, and
        cancers and/or cancer metastasis (e.g., human breast, ovarian, prostate, colon, lung, bladder, stomach and kidney cancers).
        The methods of treatment provided herein comprise administering to a subject in need of such treatment a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the invention, preferably a compound of Formulae I-V(a). Accordingly, the invention includes a method of treatment of a subject suffering from a disorder mediated by fatty acid synthase, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound according to Formulae I, II, III, IV, V or V(a); or a therapeutically effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound according to Formulae I, II, III, IV, V or V(a).

Compounds according to Formula I-V(a) may be prepared by organic syntheses utilizing known organic reactions. For example, Scheme 1 below, outlines one of the general routes that was used to synthesize numerous X═O examples of the invention. In Scheme 1, starting with a compound of formula 1 (for example, the known 4-(4-iodophenoxy)-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester 1, or 4-(4-bromophenoxy)piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester), a transition metal (e.g., palladium) catalyzed coupling reaction with an appropriate R6 boronic acid or R6 organostannane reagent can be used to produce an intermediate of formula 2. The intermediate of formula 2 can then be deprotected to remove the protecting group, PG (for example, under acidic conditions if the PG is a Boc group) to give an intermediate amine of formula 3. The intermediate amine of formula 3 may then be reacted with reagents such as carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid halides, carboxylic acid anhydrides, isocyanates, or sulfonyl halides to produce compounds according to Formulae I-V(a).
Alternatively, the above order of the steps may be reversed, i.e., the starting compound of formula 1 can be deprotected to produce an intermediate amine of formula 4. The intermediate amine of formula 4 may then be reacted with reagents such as carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid halides, carboxylic acid anhydrides, isocyanates, or sulfonyl halides to produce an intermediate of formula 5. The intermediate amine of formula 5 may then be reacted with an appropriate R6 boronic acid or R6 organostannane reagent with transition metal (e.g., palladium) catalysis to produce compounds of Formulae I-V(a).




Other synthetic methodology can also be employed. For example, intermediates of formula 5 in Scheme 1 may also be synthesized using a Mitsunobu reaction between an R5 substituted iodo- or bromophenol and N-substituted-hydroxypiperidine, as in Scheme 1a.




Compounds of Formulae I-V(a) may also be synthesized (as shown in Scheme 2 below) by reversing the functional groups on the coupling partners shown in Scheme 1, for example starting with a boronate intermediate of Formula 1a (for example, 4-[4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-phenoxy]-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester). Palladium catalyzed coupling of a compound of formula 1 with bis(pinacolatato)diboron would provide such a boronate intermediate of formula 1a. The boronate intermediate 1a can be readily converted to R6 substituted compounds according to Formula I (or II-V(a)) by coupling an appropriate heteroaryl-halide or triflate; followed by deprotection of the piperidine nitrogen and acylation (or sulfonation) of the piperidine nitrogen, similar to the synthesis steps described in Scheme 1.




Mitsunobu chemistry could also be used to produce intermediates of formula 1a, e.g., by reaction between an R5 substituted phenol boronate and an N-protected (or N-substituted) hydroxypiperidine, as in Scheme 2a, below.




The boronate intermediate 1a could also be synthesized in other ways, for example by, employing an SNAr reaction between a 4-fluoroiodobenzene and a protected 4-hydroxypiperidine of Formula 5d.
Compounds according to Formulae I-V(a), wherein the aromatic ring contains one or two nitrogen ring atoms (e.g., pyridinyl and pyrimidinyl ring) may be synthesized from intermediates of formula 1H (heteroaryl analogs of compounds of formula 1) as outlined in Scheme 3 below using Mitsunobu reaction conditions.




For example, the Mitsunobu reaction to produce a pyridyl intermediate of Formula 1H could be carried out between a 6-bromo-pyridin-3-ol and an N-protected-4-hydroxy-piperidine (for example, Boc protected) as in Scheme 3a below.




Preparation of a heteroaryl (e.g., pyridyl or pyrimidyl) intermediate of Formula 1H can of course be carried out in other ways, for example by, employing an SnAr reaction between a 2-chloropyridine or 2-chloropyrimidine intermediate and an N-protected-4-hydroxy-piperidine (for example, Boc protected) as in Scheme 3b below. Completion of the synthesis of a compound of Formulae I-V(a) can be done by installation of an R6 aryl or heteroaryl group (e.g., via a Suzuki reaction), followed by deprotection of the piperidine nitrogen, and acylation (or sulfonylation) of the piperidine nitrogen, as described previously.




Examples of compounds of Formula I, II or III, where X═SO2, X═NR9 and X═S may be synthesized using the same kinds of chemistry as has been described previously for:

    
    
        deprotection of the piperidine nitrogen;
        acylation or sulfonation of the deprotected piperidine nitroge; and
        transition metal (e.g., Pd) catalyzed coupling to install the aromatic (or heteroaromatic) R6 group.
    
    


For compounds of Formula I, II or III, where X═SO2, a suitable starting material to use in place of the Formula 1 intermediate (in Scheme 1) would be an appropriately N-protected 4-(4-bromobenzenesulfonyl)piperidine (or 4-(4-iodobenzenesulfonyl)piperidine). Similarly, for compounds of Formula I, II or II, where X═NR9, a suitable starting material to use in place of the Formula 1 intermediate (in Scheme 1) would include, for example, appropriately N-protected 4-(4-bromophenylamino)-piperidine (or 4-(4-iodophenylamino)-piperidine) compounds.
For compounds of Formula I, II or III, where X═S, a suitable starting material to use in place of the Formula 1 intermediate (in Scheme 1) would be an appropriately N-protected 4-(4-bromophenylsulfanyl)-piperidine or 4-(4-iodophenylsulfanyl)-piperidine. Such sulfanyl intermediates could be prepared, for example, by converting the hydroxyl group of a N-protected-4-hydroxypiperidine intermediate of formula 5d to a leaving group (e.g., mesylate, tosylate, triflate, etc), and reacting with a 4-bromo- or 4-iodothiophenol, as shown in Scheme 4 below.




FASN Enzyme activity may be determined by detecting coenzyme A (CoA), a product of FASN-catalyzed synthesis of palmitate from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA with NADPH as a cofactor. The assay is fluorescence-based and measures the interaction of free CoA with 7-diethylamino-3-(4′-malemimidylphenyl)-4-methylcoumarin (CPM; Life Technologies, CA) as described in Chung et al (2008). The coumarin derivative CPM contains a thiol-reactive maleimide that becomes fluorescent upon interaction with the sulfhydryl group of CoA.
For the example compounds described herein, the reaction was performed in 384-well low volume non-binding plates (Corning, N.Y.) using recombinant human baculovirus-expressed GST-tagged FASN. The 20-μL assay mixture contained 50 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 5 nM FASN, 150 μM NADPH (Sigma, St. Louis, Mo.), 10 μM acetyl-CoA (Sigma), 25 μM malonyl-CoA (Sigma) and test compound [diluted in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO); 0.5% DMSO final in assay after 100 nL addition]. See, Chung et al.; “A fluorescence-based thiol quantification assay for ultra-high-throughput screening for inhibitors of coenzyme A production,” Assay Drug Dev Tech 2008; 6:361-374.
The reaction was initiated by adding malonyl-CoA, followed by incubation for 90 minutes at 250° C. A stock solution of the CPM reagent was prepared in DMSO at 66 μM and stored at −200° C. To detect CoA produced in the FASN reaction, the CPM stock was diluted to 50 μM in 70% ethanol and added at 4 μL/well to the assay plate. The reaction mixture was then incubated for 30 minutes. Fluorescence was measured using the EnVisionTM 2102 multi-label plate reader (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Mass.) utilizing a general dual mirror, a 390 nM excitation filter and a 530 nM emission filter. Data analysis was performed using ActivityBase (IDBS, Guilford, UK). IC50 values were calculated by plotting the percent inhibition versus log 10 of the concentration of the compound, and fitting to the nonlinear regression sigmoidal dose-response (variable slope) equation in XLFit (IDBS). The IC50 data for the Examples described herein is provided in Tables 2 and 2a below (A=1 to 99 nM; B=100 to 999 nM; C=1000-10,000 nM).

After stirred at 85° C. for 16 h, the reaction was cooled to room temp and added EtOAc (100 mL), washed with 1M Na2CO3 solution (30 mL), H2O, brine, dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated. The residue was chromatography on silica gel (0-70% EtOAc/Hexanes) to give a grayish solid 723 mg (85%).
Step 3. 3-[6-(Piperidin-4-yloxy)-pyridin-3-yl]-quinoline, 2HCl.
To a solution of 4-(5-quinolin-3-yl-pyridin-2-yloxy)-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (701 mg, 1.73 mmol) in DCM (25 mL) was added 4.0 M of HCl in 1,4-dioxane (4.32 mL, 17.3 mmol) and stirred at room temperature for 24 h. The resulted white precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with DCM, dried to give a white solid 626 mg (96%).
Step 4.
To a solution of 3-[6-(piperidin-4-yloxy)-pyridin-3-yl]-quinoline, 2HCl (100 mg, 0.3 mmol) and Et3N in DCM (8 mL) was added propanoyl chloride (50 μL, 0.6 mmol). After 15 min, the reaction was diluted with DCM (50 mL), washed with H2O (2×20 mL), sat. NaHCO3, brine, dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel (0-100 EtOAc/Hexanes) and the isolated product was dissolved in a mixed solvent MeOH-DCM (1:1), treated with 1.2 eq. of 2 M HCl Et2O solution, and concentrated. It was stripped with small amount of MeOH-DCM (1:1) several times, dried to give a tan solid 88 mg (80%).
