BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Janus kinase (JAK) is a family of intracellular non-receptor tyrosine kinases, ranging from 120-140 kDa, that transduce cytokine-mediated signals via the JAK-STAT pathway. The JAK family plays a role in the cytokine-dependent regulation of proliferation and function of cells involved in immune response. Currently, there are four known mammalian JAK family members: JAK1, JAK2, JAK3 and TYK2.
JAK1, JAK2 and TYK2 are ubiquitously expressed whereas JAK3 is expressed in the myeloid and lymphoid lineages. The JAK family members are non-receptor tyrosine kinases that associate with many hematopoietin cytokines, receptor tyrosine kinases and GPCR's. JAK1−/− mice were found to be developmentally similar to the JAK1+/+ although they weighed 40% less than the wild-type and failed to nurse at birth. These pups were not viable and died within 24 hours of birth (Meraz et al Cell, 1998, 373-383). JAK1 deficiency led to reduced number of thymocytes, pre-B cells and mature T and B lymphocytes. TYK2(−/−) mice, on the other hand, are viable, demonstrating subtle defects in their response to IFN-α/β and IL-10 and profound defects to the response of IL-12 and LPS.
The breast cancer susceptibility protein (BRCA1) acts as a tumor suppressor and contributes to cell proliferation, cycle regulation, as well as DNA damage and repair. BRCA1 (−/−) mice develop normally but die by 7.5 days post embryo suggesting a key role of BRCA1 for development. Mice in which the BRCA1 protein was overexpressed led to inhibition of cell growth and sensitized cells to cytotoxic reagents. In the human prostate cancer cell line Du-145 (Gao FEBS Letters 2001, 488, 179-184), enhanced expression of BRCA1 was found to correlate with constitutive activation of STAT3 as well as activation of JAK1 and JAK2. Moreover, antisense oligonucleotides selective for STAT3 led to significant inhibition of cell proliferation and apoptosis in Du-145 cells. This data supports the potential utility of JAK1 and JAK2 inhibitors in the treatment of prostate cancer.
Campbell et al (Journal of Biological Chemistry 1997, 272, 2591-2594) as reported that STAT3 is constitutively activated v-Src transformed cells. To test whether STAT3 activation resulted via signaling through the JAK-STAT pathway, three fibroblast cell lines (NIH3T3, Balb/c, and 3Y1) were transformed with v-Src. The level of JAK1 phosphorylation in NIH3T3 cells was markedly increased in cells overexpressed with v-Src or mutant c-Src (Y527F) compared to those in the less transforming c-Src. This result correlated with increased JAK1 enzymatic activity. Similar results were observed with JAK2 albeit to a lesser extent. These results are consistent with constitutive activation of JAK1 and possibly JAK2 which contribute to the hyperactivation of STAT3 in Src-transformed cells.
Asthma is a disease that is increasing in prevalence and results in “airway obstruction, airway hyperresponsiveness, and airway inflammation and remodeling” (Pernis The Journal of Clinical Investigation 2002, 109, 1279-1283). A common cause is the inappropriate immune responses to environmental antigens usually involving CD4+ T helper cells (TH2) which are triggered from cytokines IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, and IL-13 which signal through JAK1/JAK3-STAT6 pathway. Th1 cells are thought to be involved with the “delayed-type hypersensitivity responses” which secrete IL-2, IFN-γ, and TNF-β and signal through the JAK2/TYK2-STAT4 pathway. STAT6 (−/−) mice were protected from AHR when challenged with environmental antigens and showed no increase in IgE levels or the quantity of mucous containing cells.
JAK2 is a cytoplasmic protein-tyrosine kinase that catalyzes the transfer of the gamma-phosphate group of adenosine triphosphate to the hydroxyl groups of specific tyrosine residues in signal transduction molecules. JAK2 mediates signaling downstream of cytokine receptors after ligand-induced autophosphorylation of both receptor and enzyme. The main downstream effectors of JAK2 are a family of transcription factors known as signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) proteins. Studies have disclosed an association between an activating JAK2 mutation (JAK2V617F) and myeloproliferative disorders. The myeloproliferative disorders, a subgroup of myeloid malignancies, are clonal stem cell diseases characterized by an expansion of morphologically mature granulocyte, erythroid, megakaryocyte, or monocyte lineage cells. Myeloproliferative disorders (MPD) include polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), myeloid metaplasia with myelofibrosis (MMM), chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES), juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) and systemic mast cell disease (SMCD). It has been suggested that abnormalities in signal transduction mechanisms, including constitutive activation of protein tyrosine kinases, initiate MPD.
JAK3 associates with the common gamma chain of the extracellular receptors for the following interleukins: IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9 and IL-15. A JAK3 deficiency is associated with an immune compromised (SCID) phenotype in both rodents and humans. The SCID phenotype of JAK3 −/− mammals and the lymphoid cell specific expression of JAK3 are two favorable attributes of a target for an immune suppressant. Data suggests that inhibitors of JAK3 could impede T-cell activation and prevent rejection of grafts following transplant surgery, or to provide therapeutic benefit to patients suffering autoimmune disorders.
PDK1 signalling regulates multiple critical steps in angiogenesis. Inhibitors of the activity of PDK1 are thus useful in the treatment of cancer, in particular cancers associated with deregulated activity of the PTEN/PI3K pathway including, but not limited to PTEN loss of function mutations and receptor tyrosine kinase gain of function mutations.

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof.



Also included within the scope of the present invention is a pharmaceutical composition which is comprised of a compound of Formula I as described above and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The invention is also contemplated to encompass a pharmaceutical composition which is comprised of a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and any of the compounds specifically disclosed in the present application. These and other aspects of the invention will be apparent from the teachings contained herein.
The compounds of the present invention may have asymmetric centers, chiral axes, and chiral planes (as described in: E. L. Eliel and S. H. Wilen, Stereochemistry of Carbon Compounds, John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1994, pages 1119-1190), and occur as racemates, racemic mixtures, and as individual diastereomers, with all possible isomers and mixtures thereof, including optical isomers, all such stereoisomers being included in the present invention.
In addition, the compounds disclosed herein may exist as tautomers and both tautomeric forms are intended to be encompassed by the scope of the invention, even though only one tautomeric structure is depicted. For example the following is within the scope of the instant invention:




Many heteroaryl groups, such as imidazoles, exist as a mixture of 1H/2H tautomers. The tautomeric forms of these heteroaryl moieties are also within the scope of the instant invention.

When any variable (e.g. R11, etc.) occurs more than one time in any constituent, its definition on each occurrence is independent at every other occurrence. Also, combinations of substituents and variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds. Lines drawn into the ring systems from substituents represent that the indicated bond may be attached to any of the substitutable ring atoms. If the ring system is bicyclic, it is intended that the bond be attached to any of the suitable atoms on either ring of the bicyclic moiety.
It is understood that one or more silicon (Si) atoms can be incorporated into the compounds of the instant invention in place of one or more carbon atoms by one of ordinary skill in the art to provide compounds that are chemically stable and that can be readily synthesized by techniques known in the art from readily available starting materials. Carbon and silicon differ in their covalent radius leading to differences in bond distance and the steric arrangement when comparing analogous C-element and Si-element bonds. These differences lead to subtle changes in the size and shape of silicon-containing compounds when compared to carbon. One of ordinary skill in the art would understand that size and shape differences can lead to subtle or dramatic changes in potency, solubility, lack of off target activity, packaging properties, and so on. (Diass, J. O. et al. Organometallics (2006) 5:1188-1198; Showell, G. A. et al. Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters (2006) 16:2555-2558).
It is understood that substituents and substitution patterns on the compounds of the instant invention can be selected by one of ordinary skill in the art to provide compounds that are chemically stable and that can be readily synthesized by techniques known in the art, as well as those methods set forth below, from readily available starting materials. If a substituent is itself substituted with more than one group, it is understood that these multiple groups may be on the same carbon or on different carbons, so long as a stable structure results. The phrase “optionally substituted with one or more substituents” should be taken to be equivalent to the phrase “optionally substituted with at least one substituent” and in such cases the preferred embodiment will have from zero to four substituents, and the more preferred embodiment will have from zero to three substituents.
As used herein, “alkyl” is intended to include both branched and straight-chain saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon groups having the specified number of carbon atoms. For example, C1-C10, as in “(C1-C10)alkyl” is defined to include groups having 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 carbons in a linear or branched arrange-ment. For example, “(C1-C10)alkyl” specifically includes methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, n-butyl, t-butyl, i-butyl, pentyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl, nonyl, decyl, and so on.
The term “haloalkyl” means an alkyl radical as defined above, unless otherwise specified, that is substituted with one to five, preferably one to three halogen. Representative examples include, but are not limited to trifluoromethyl, dichloroethyl, and the like.
As used herein, the term “alkenyl” refers to a non-aromatic hydrocarbon radical, straight or branched, containing from 2 to 10 carbon atoms and at least 1 carbon to carbon double bond. Preferably 1 carbon to carbon double bond is present, and up to 4 non-aromatic carbon-carbon double bonds may be present. Thus, “C2-C6 alkenyl” means an alkenyl radical having from 2 to 6 carbon atoms. Alkenyl groups include ethenyl, propenyl, butenyl and cyclohexenyl. As described above with respect to alkyl, the straight, branched or cyclic portion of the alkenyl group may contain double bonds and may be substituted if a substituted alkenyl group is indicated.
As used herein, the term “alkynyl” refers to a non-aromatic hydrocarbon radical, straight or branched, containing from 2 to 10 carbon atoms and at least 1 carbon to carbon triple bond. Preferably 1 carbon to carbon triple bond is present. Thus, “C2-C6 alkynyl” means an alkynyl radical having from 2 to 6 carbon atoms. Alkynyl groups include ethynyl, propynyl, butynyl, and the like. As described above with respect to alkyl, the straight or branched portion of the alkynyl group may be substituted if a substituted alkynyl group is indicated.
The term “cycloalkyl” means a monocyclic saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon group having the specified number of carbon atoms. For example, “cycloalkyl” includes cyclopropyl, methyl-cyclopropyl, 2,2-dimethyl-cyclobutyl, 2-ethyl-cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, and so on.
“Alkoxy” represents either a cyclic or non-cyclic alkyl group of indicated number of carbon atoms attached through an oxygen bridge. “Alkoxy” therefore encompasses the definitions of alkyl and cycloalkyl above.
As used herein, “aryl” is intended to mean any stable monocyclic or bicyclic carbon ring of up to 7 atoms in each ring, wherein at least one ring is aromatic. Examples of such aryl elements include phenyl, naphthyl, tetrahydro-naphthyl, indanyl and biphenyl. In cases where the aryl substituent is bicyclic and one ring is non-aromatic, it is understood that attachment is via the aromatic ring.
The term “heteroaryl,” as used herein, represents a stable monocyclic or bicyclic ring of up to 7 atoms in each ring, wherein at least one ring is aromatic and contains from 1 to 4 heteroatoms selected from the group consisting of O, N and S. Heteroaryl groups within the scope of this definition include but are not limited to: acridinyl, carbazolyl, cinnolinyl, quinoxalinyl, pyrrazolyl, indolyl, benzotriazolyl, furanyl, thienyl, benzothienyl, benzofuranyl, quinolinyl, isoquinolinyl, oxazolyl, isoxazolyl, indolyl, pyrazinyl, pyridazinyl, pyridinyl, pyrimidinyl, pyrrolyl, tetrahydroquinoline. As with the definition of heterocycle below, “heteroaryl” is also understood to include the N-oxide derivative of any nitrogen-containing heteroaryl. In cases where the heteroaryl substituent is bicyclic and one ring is non-aromatic or contains no heteroatoms, it is understood that attachment is via the aromatic ring or via the heteroatom containing ring, respectively. Such heteraoaryl moieties include but are not limited to: 2-benzimidazolyl, 2-quinolinyl, 3-quinolinyl, 4-quinolinyl, 1-isoquinolinyl, 3-isoquinolinyl, 4-isoquinolinyl, dihydroimidazopyrazinyl and dihydrooxozolopyridinyl.
The term “heterocycle” or “heterocyclyl” as used herein is intended to mean a 3- to 10-membered aromatic or nonaromatic heterocycle containing from 1 to 4 heteroatoms selected from the group consisting of O, N and S, and includes bicyclic groups. “Heterocyclyl” therefore includes the above mentioned heteroaryls, as well as dihydro and tetrahydro analogs thereof. Further examples of “heterocyclyl” include, but are not limited to the following: azabicyclohexyl, azaphosphinyl, azaspiroheptyl, benzoimidazolyl, benzoimidazolonyl, benzofuranyl, benzofurazanyl, benzopyrazolyl, benzotriazolyl, benzothiophenyl, benzoxazolyl, carbazolyl, carbolinyl, cinnolinyl, dioxidothiomorpholinyl, furanyl, imidazolyl, indolinyl, indolyl, indolazinyl, indazolyl, isobenzofuranyl, isoindolyl, isoquinolyl, isothiazolyl, isoxazolyl, naphthpyridinyl, oxadiazolyl, oxazolyl, oxazoline, isoxazoline, oxetanyl, pyranyl, pyrazinyl, pyrazolyl, pyridazinyl, pyridopyridinyl, pyridazinyl, pyridyl, pyrimidyl, pyrrolyl, quinazolinyl, quinolyl, quinoxalinyl, tetrahydropyranyl, tetrazolyl, tetrazolopyridyl, thiadiazolyl, thiazolyl, thienyl, triazolyl, azetidinyl, 1,4-dioxanyl, hexahydroazepinyl, piperazinyl, piperidinyl, pyridin-2-onyl, pyrrolidinyl, morpholinyl, thiomorpholinyl, dihydrobenzoimidazolyl, dihydrobenzofuranyl, dihydrobenzothiophenyl, dihydrobenzoxazolyl, dihydrofuranyl, dihydroimidazolyl, dihydroindolyl, dihydroisooxazolyl, dihydroisothiazolyl, dihydrooxadiazolyl, dihydrooxazolyl, dihydropyrazinyl, dihydropyrazolyl, dihydropyridinyl, dihydropyrimidinyl, dihydropyrrolyl, dihydroquinolinyl, dihydrotetrazolyl, dihydrothiadiazolyl, dihydrothiazolyl, dihydrothienyl, dihydrotriazolyl, dihydroazetidinyl, methylenedioxybenzoyl, oxadiazaspirodecyl, tetrahydrofuranyl, and tetrahydrothienyl, and N-oxides thereof. Attachment of a heterocyclyl substituent can occur via a carbon atom or via a heteroatom.
As appreciated by those of skill in the art, “halo” or “halogen” as used herein is intended to include chloro (Cl), fluoro (F), bromo (Br) and iodo (I).
Included in the instant invention is the free form of compounds of the instant invention, as well as the pharmaceutically acceptable salts and stereoisomers thereof. Some of the isolated specific compounds exemplified herein are the protonated salts of amine compounds. The term “free form” refers to the amine compounds in non-salt form. The encompassed pharmaceutically acceptable salts not only include the isolated salts exemplified for the specific compounds described herein, but also all the typical pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the free form of compounds of the instant invention. The free form of the specific salt compounds described may be isolated using techniques known in the art. For example, the free form may be regenerated by treating the salt with a suitable dilute aqueous base solution such as dilute aqueous NaOH, potassium carbonate, ammonia and sodium bicarbonate. The free forms may differ from their respective salt forms somewhat in certain physical properties, such as solubility in polar solvents, but the acid and base salts are otherwise pharmaceutically equivalent to their respective free forms for purposes of the invention.
The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the instant compounds can be synthesized from the compounds of this invention which contain a basic or acidic moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, the salts of the basic compounds are prepared either by ion exchange chromatography or by reacting the free base with stoichiometric amounts or with an excess of the desired salt-forming inorganic or organic acid in a suitable solvent or various combinations of solvents. Similarly, the salts of the acidic compounds are formed by reactions with the appropriate inorganic or organic base.
Thus, pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of this invention include the conventional non-toxic salts of the compounds of this invention as formed by reacting a basic instant compound with an inorganic or organic acid. For example, conventional non-toxic salts include those derived from inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, sulfamic, phosphoric, nitric and the like, as well as salts prepared from organic acids such as acetic, propionic, succinic, glycolic, stearic, lactic, malic, tartaric, citric, ascorbic, pamoic, maleic, hydroxymaleic, phenylacetic, glutamic, benzoic, salicylic, sulfanilic, 2-acetoxy-benzoic, fumaric, toluenesulfonic, methanesulfonic, ethane disulfonic, oxalic, isethionic, trifluoroacetic (TFA) and the like.
When the compound of the present invention is acidic, suitable “pharmaceutically acceptable salts” refers to salts prepared form pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic bases including inorganic bases and organic bases. Salts derived from inorganic bases include aluminum, ammonium, calcium, copper, ferric, ferrous, lithium, magnesium, manganic salts, manganous, potassium, sodium, zinc and the like. Particularly preferred are the ammonium, calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium salts. Salts derived from pharmaceutically acceptable organic non-toxic bases include salts of primary, secondary and tertiary amines, substituted amines including naturally occurring substituted amines, cyclic amines and basic ion exchange resins, such as arginine, betaine caffeine, choline, N,N1-dibenzylethylenediamine, diethylamin, 2-diethylaminoethanol, 2-dimethylaminoethanol, ethanolamine, ethylenediamine, N-ethylmorpholine, N-ethylpiperidine, glucamine, glucosamine, histidine, hydrabamine, isopropylamine, lysine, methylglucamine, morpholine, piperazine, piperidine, polyamine resins, procaine, purines, theobromine, triethylamine, trimethylamine tripropylamine, tromethamine and the like.
The preparation of the pharmaceutically acceptable salts described above and other typical pharmaceutically acceptable salts is more fully described by Berg et al., “Pharmaceutical Salts,” J. Pharm. Sci., 1977:66:1-19.
It will also be noted that the compounds of the present invention are potentially internal salts or zwitterions, since under physiological conditions a deprotonated acidic moiety in the compound, such as a carboxyl group, may be anionic, and this electronic charge might then be balanced off internally against the cationic charge of a protonated or alkylated basic moiety, such as a quaternary nitrogen atom.

PDK1 signaling regulates multiple critical steps in angiogenesis. See, Mora, Alfonso et al., “PDK1, the master regulator of AGC kinase signal transduction,” Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology 15 (2004) 161-170. The utility of angiogenesis inhibitors in the treatment of cancer is known in the literature, see J. Rak et al. Cancer Research, 55:4575-4580, 1995 and Dredge et al., Expert Opin. Biol. Ther. (2002) 2(8):953-966, for example. The role of angiogenesis in cancer has been shown in numerous types of cancer and tissues: breast carcinoma (G. Gasparini and A. L. Harris, J. Clin. Oncol., 1995, 13:765-782; M. Toi et al., Japan. J. Cancer Res., 1994, 85:1045-1049); bladder carcinomas (A. J. Dickinson et al., Br. J. Urol., 1994, 74:762-766); colon carcinomas (L. M. Ellis et al., Surgery, 1996, 120(5):871-878); and oral cavity tumors (J. K. Williams et al., Am. J. Surg., 1994, 168:373-380). Other cancers include, advanced tumors, hairy cell leukemia, melanoma, advanced head and neck, metastatic renal cell, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, metastatic breast, breast adenocarcinoma, advanced melanoma, pancreatic, gastric, glioblastoma, lung, ovarian, non-small cell lung, prostate, small cell lung, renal cell carcinoma, various solid tumors, multiple myeloma, metastatic prostate, malignant glioma, renal cancer, lymphoma, refractory metastatic disease, refractory multiple myeloma, cervical cancer, Kaposi's sarcoma, recurrent anaplastic glioma, and metastatic colon cancer (Dredge et al., Expert Opin. Biol. Ther. (2002) 2(8):953-966). Thus, the PDK1 inhibitors disclosed in the instant application are also useful in the treatment of these angiogenesis related cancers.
Tumors which have undergone neovascularization show an increased potential for metastasis. In fact, angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and metastasis. (S. P. Cunningham, et al., Can. Research, 61: 3206-3211 (2001)). The PDK1 inhibitors disclosed in the present application are therefore also useful to prevent or decrease tumor cell metastasis.
Further included within the scope of the invention is a method of treating or preventing a disease in which angiogenesis is implicated, which is comprised of administering to a mammal in need of such treatment a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the present invention. Ocular neovascular diseases are an example of conditions where much of the resulting tissue damage can be attributed to aberrant infiltration of blood vessels in the eye (see WO 00/30651, published 2 Jun. 2000). The undesirable infiltration can be triggered by ischemic retinopathy, such as that resulting from diabetic retinopathy, retinopathy of prematurity, retinal vein occlusions, etc., or by degenerative diseases, such as the choroidal neovascularization observed in age-related macular degeneration. Inhibiting the growth of blood vessels by administration of the present compounds would therefore prevent the infiltration of blood vessels and prevent or treat diseases where angiogenesis is implicated, such as ocular diseases like retinal vascularization, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and the like.
Further included within the scope of the invention is a method of treating or preventing a non-malignant disease in which angiogenesis is implicated, including but not limited to: ocular diseases (such as, retinal vascularization, diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration), atherosclerosis, arthritis, psoriasis, obesity and Alzheimer's disease (Dredge et al., Expert Opin. Biol. Ther. (2002) 2(8):953-966). In another embodiment, a method of treating or preventing a disease in which angiogenesis is implicated includes: ocular diseases (such as, retinal vascularization, diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration), atherosclerosis, arthritis and psoriasis.
Further included within the scope of the invention is a method of treating hyperproliferative disorders such as restenosis, inflammation, autoimmune diseases and allergy/asthma.

The compounds of this invention may be administered to mammals, including humans, either alone or, in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, excipients or diluents, in a pharmaceutical composition, according to standard pharmaceutical practice. The compounds can be administered orally or parenterally, including the intravenous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, rectal and topical routes of administration.
The pharmaceutical compositions containing the active ingredient may be in a form suitable for oral use, for example, as tablets, troches, lozenges, aqueous or oily suspensions, dispersible powders or granules, emulsions, hard or soft capsules, or syrups or elixirs. Compositions intended for oral use may be prepared according to any method known to the art for the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions and such compositions may contain one or more agents selected from the group consisting of sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents and preserving agents in order to provide pharmaceutically elegant and palatable preparations. Tablets contain the active ingredient in admixture with non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable excipients which are suitable for the manufacture of tablets. These excipients may be for example, inert diluents, such as calcium carbonate, sodium carbonate, lactose, calcium phosphate or sodium phosphate; granulating and disintegrating agents, for example, microcrystalline cellulose, sodium crosscarmellose, corn starch, or alginic acid; binding agents, for example starch, gelatin, polyvinyl-pyrrolidone or acacia, and lubricating agents, for example, magnesium stearate, stearic acid or talc. The tablets may be uncoated or they may be coated by known techniques to mask the unpleasant taste of the drug or delay disintegration and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby provide a sustained action over a longer period. For example, a water soluble taste masking material such as hydroxypropylmethyl-cellulose or hydroxypropylcellulose, or a time delay material such as ethyl cellulose, cellulose acetate buryrate may be employed.
Formulations for oral use may also be presented as hard gelatin capsules wherein the active ingredient is mixed with an inert solid diluent, for example, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate or kaolin, or as soft gelatin capsules wherein the active ingredient is mixed with water soluble carrier such as polyethyleneglycol or an oil medium, for example peanut oil, liquid paraffin, or olive oil.
Aqueous suspensions contain the active material in admixture with excipients suitable for the manufacture of aqueous suspensions. Such excipients are suspending agents, for example sodium carboxymethylcellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethyl-cellulose, sodium alginate, polyvinyl-pyrrolidone, gum tragacanth and gum acacia; dispersing or wetting agents may be a naturally-occurring phosphatide, for example lecithin, or condensation products of an alkylene oxide with fatty acids, for example polyoxyethylene stearate, or condensation products of ethylene oxide with long chain aliphatic alcohols, for example heptadecaethylene-oxycetanol, or condensation products of ethylene oxide with partial esters derived from fatty acids and a hexitol such as polyoxyethylene sorbitol monooleate, or condensation products of ethylene oxide with partial esters derived from fatty acids and hexitol anhydrides, for example polyethylene sorbitan monooleate. The aqueous suspensions may also contain one or more preservatives, for example ethyl, or n-propyl p-hydroxybenzoate, one or more coloring agents, one or more flavoring agents, and one or more sweetening agents, such as sucrose, saccharin or aspartame.
Oily suspensions may be formulated by suspending the active ingredient in a vegetable oil, for example arachis oil, olive oil, sesame oil or coconut oil, or in mineral oil such as liquid paraffin. The oily suspensions may contain a thickening agent, for example beeswax, hard paraffin or cetyl alcohol. Sweetening agents such as those set forth above, and flavoring agents may be added to provide a palatable oral preparation. These compositions may be preserved by the addition of an anti-oxidant such as butylated hydroxyanisol or alpha-tocopherol.
Dispersible powders and granules suitable for preparation of an aqueous suspension by the addition of water provide the active ingredient in admixture with a dispersing or wetting agent, suspending agent and one or more preservatives. Suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents are exemplified by those already mentioned above. Additional excipients, for example sweetening, flavoring and coloring agents, may also be present. These compositions may be preserved by the addition of an anti-oxidant such as ascorbic acid.
The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention may also be in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion. The oily phase may be a vegetable oil, for example olive oil or arachis oil, or a mineral oil, for example liquid paraffin or mixtures of these. Suitable emulsifying agents may be naturally-occurring phosphatides, for example soy bean lecithin, and esters or partial esters derived from fatty acids and hexitol anhydrides, for example sorbitan monooleate, and condensation products of the said partial esters with ethylene oxide, for example polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate. The emulsions may also contain sweetening, flavouring agents, preservatives and antioxidants.
Syrups and elixirs may be formulated with sweetening agents, for example glycerol, propylene glycol, sorbitol or sucrose. Such formulations may also contain a demulcent, a preservative, flavoring and coloring agents and antioxidant.
The pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of sterile injectable aqueous solutions. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution and isotonic sodium chloride solution.
The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable oil-in-water microemulsion where the active ingredient is dissolved in the oily phase. For example, the active ingredient may be first dissolved in a mixture of soybean oil and lecithin. The oil solution then introduced into a water and glycerol mixture and processed to form a microemulation.
The injectable solutions or microemulsions may be introduced into a patient's blood-stream by local bolus injection. Alternatively, it may be advantageous to administer the solution or microemulsion in such a way as to maintain a constant circulating concentration of the instant compound. In order to maintain such a constant concentration, a continuous intravenous delivery device may be utilized. An example of such a device is the Deltec CADD-PLUSTM model 5400 intravenous pump.
The pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of a sterile injectable aqueous or oleagenous suspension for intramuscular and subcutaneous administration. This suspension may be formulated according to the known art using those suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents which have been mentioned above. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterally-acceptable diluent or solvent, for example as a solution in 1,3-butane diol. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose any bland fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid find use in the preparation of injectables.
Compounds of the instant invention may also be administered in the form of suppositories for rectal administration of the drug. These compositions can be prepared by mixing the drug with a suitable non-irritating excipient which is solid at ordinary temperatures but liquid at the rectal temperature and will therefore melt in the rectum to release the drug. Such materials include cocoa butter, glycerinated gelatin, hydrogenated vegetable oils, mixtures of polyethylene glycols of various molecular weights and fatty acid esters of polyethylene glycol.
For topical use, creams, ointments, jellies, solutions or suspensions, etc., containing the compounds of the instant invention are employed. (For purposes of this application, topical application shall include mouth washes and gargles.)
The compounds for the present invention can be administered in intranasal form via topical use of suitable intranasal vehicles and delivery devices, or via transdermal routes, using those forms of transdermal skin patches well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. To be administered in the form of a transdermal delivery system, the dosage administration will, of course, be continuous rather than intermittent throughout the dosage regimen. Compounds of the present invention may also be delivered as a suppository employing bases such as cocoa butter, glycerinated gelatin, hydrogenated vegetable oils, mixtures of polyethylene glycols of various molecular weights and fatty acid esters of polyethylene glycol.
The compounds of the present invention can also be administered in the form of liposome delivery systems, such as small unilamellar vesicles, large unilamellar vesicles and multilamellar vesicles. Liposomes can be formed from a variety of phospholipids, such as cholesterol, stearylamine or phosphatidylcholines.
Compounds of the present invention may also be delivered by the use of monoclonal antibodies as individual carriers to which the compound molecules are coupled. The compounds of the present invention may also be coupled with soluble polymers as targetable drug carriers. Such polymers can include polyvinylpyrrolidone, pyran copolymer, polyhydroxypropylmethacrylamide-phenol, polyhydroxy-ethylaspartamide-phenol, or polyethyleneoxide-polylysine substituted with palmitoyl residues. Furthermore, the compounds of the present invention may be coupled to a class of biodegradable polymers useful in achieving controlled release of a drug, for example, polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid, copolymers of polyactic and polyglycolic acid, polyepsilon caprolactone, polyhydroxy butyric acid, polyorthoesters, polyacetals, polydihydropyrans, polycyanoacrylates and crosslinked or amphipathic block copolymers of hydrogels.
When a composition according to this invention is administered into a human subject, the daily dosage will normally be determined by the prescribing physician with the dosage generally varying according to the age, weight, and response of the individual patient, as well as the severity of the patient's symptoms.
In an embodiment, a suitable amount of an inhibitor of JAK2 is administered to a mammal undergoing treatment for cancer. Administration occurs in an amount of inhibitor of between about 0.1 mg/kg of body weight to about 60 mg/kg of body weight per day, or between 0.5 mg/kg of body weight to about 40 mg/kg of body weight per day. Another therapeutic dosage that comprises the instant composition includes from about 0.01 mg to about 1000 mg of inhibitor of JAK2. In another embodiment, the dosage comprises from about 1 mg to about 1000 mg of inhibitor of JAK2.

Combinations with compounds other than anti-cancer compounds are also encompassed in the instant methods. For example, combinations of the instantly claimed compounds with PPAR-γ (i.e., PPAR-gamma) agonists and PPAR-δ (i.e., PPAR-delta) agonists are useful in the treatment of certain malignancies. PPAR-γ and PPAR-δ are the nuclear peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors γ and δ. The expression of PPAR-γ on endothelial cells and its involvement in angiogenesis has been reported in the literature (see J. Cardiovasc. Pharmacol. 1998; 31:909-913; J. Biol. Chem. 1999; 274:9116-9121; Invest. Opthalmol. Vis. Sci. 2000; 41:2309-2317).

The compounds of the present invention can be prepared according to the following general schemes, using appropriate materials, and are further exemplified by the subsequent specific examples. The compounds illustrated in the examples are not, however, to be construed as forming the only genus that is considered as the invention. The illustrative Examples below, therefore, are not limited by the compounds listed or by any particular substituents employed for illustrative purposes. Those skilled in the art will readily understand that known variations of the conditions and processes of the following preparative procedures can be used to prepare these compounds. All temperatures are degrees Celsius unless otherwise noted.
Methods of Synthesis
Method 1
General procedures to prepare compounds of the instant invention are described in Scheme 1. Treatment of 2-aminothiophene-3-carboxamide (I) with benzyloxychloroformate in the presence of a tertiary amine base followed by exposure to N-iodosuccinimide leads to protected 5-iodothiophene III. 5-Iodothiophene III can be coupled to various aryl and heteroaryl boron species in the presence of a palladium catalyst to afford the 5-aryl thiophene IV, which can be deprotected by hydrogenolysis to give 2-amino thiophene V. The 2-amino thiophene V is then elaborated to the final product 2-amino thiophene VI through palladium catalyzed coupling with an appropriate six-membered halogenated heterocycle optionally substituted (R2).




Method 2

General procedures to prepare compounds of the instant invention are also described in Scheme 2. Coupling of 2-aminothiophene-3-carboxamide (I) with an appropriate six-membered halogenated heterocycle optionally substituted (R2) using palladium catalysis affords 2-aminothiophene VII, which can be further elaborated by treatment with N-iodosuccinimide to give iodothiophene VIII. The iodothiophene can be coupled to various aryl and heteroaryl boron species in the presence of a palladium catalyst to afford the final product thiophene VI with an aryl or heteroaryl ring in the 5-position.




Method 3

General procedures to prepare compounds of the instant invention are also described in Scheme 3. Aryl or heteroaryl aldehyde IX can be homologated by one carbon using the appropriate Wittig agent and base, and the corresponding methyl enol ether X can be hydrolyzed under acidic conditions to give the aryl or heteroaryl acetaldehyde XI. The aldehyde can be condensed with 2-cyanoacetamide and sulfur in the presence of a tertiary amine base to afford thiophene XII, which can be coupled with an appropriate six-membered halogenated heterocycle optionally substituted (R2) using palladium catalysis to give the 2-aminopyridyl thiophene VI.




Method 4

General procedures to prepare compounds of the instant invention are also described in Scheme 4. An appropriate aryl or heteroaryl iodide XV can be coupled to allyl bromide by first performing an iodo-magnesium exchange and then introducing allyl bromide in the presence of a copper cyanide-lithium chloride complex. The resulting allylated aromatic XVI can be dihydroxylated using a catalytic amount of osmium tetroxide in the presence of a stoichiometric reoxidant, giving the diol XV that can be cleaved to give the aryl or heteroaryl acetylaldehyde XI. The aldehyde can be condensed with 2-cyanoacetamide and sulfur to afford thiophene XII, which can be coupled with an appropriate six-membered halogenated heterocycle optionally substituted (R2) using palladium catalysis to give the 2-aminopyridyl thiophene VI.




Method 5

General procedures to prepare compounds of the instant invention are described in Scheme 5. Nitrothiophene XVI can be alkylated with chloroform using a variety of strongly basic conditions to afford the dichloromethyl adduct XVII. Hydrolysis to the aldehyde XVIII under acidic or basic conditions followed by condensation with hydroxylamine affords oxime XIV. Transition metal-catalyzed rearrangement to the amide XV followed by palladium catalyzed cross coupling with a variety of aryl and heteroaryl boronates affords the functionalized nitro thiophene intermediate XVI. Reduction of the nitro group and coupling with an appropriate six-membered halogenated heterocycle optionally substituted (R2) using palladium catalysis gives the 2-aminopyridyl thiophene VI.




Method 6

General procedures to prepare compounds of the instant invention are described in Scheme 6. Treatment of 2-aminothiophene-3-nitrile (XVII) with di-tert-butyl dicarbonate in the presence of a tertiary amine base followed by exposure to N-iodosuccinimide leads to protected 5-iodothiophene XIX. 5-Iodothiophene XIX can be coupled to various aryl and heteroaryl boron species in the presence of a palladium catalyst to afford the 5-aryl or heteroaryl thiophene XX, which can be deprotected by treatment with acid to give 2-amino thiophene XXI. The 2-amino thiophene XXI is then elaborated to the 2-aminopyridyl thiophene VII through palladium catalyzed coupling with an appropriate six-membered halogenated heterocycle optionally substituted (R2) using palladium catalysis. Finally, the 2-aminopyridyl thiophene XXII is hydrolyzed with base to give the final 3-amide thiophene product VI.




The invention will now be illustrated in the following non-limiting Examples in which, unless otherwise stated:
1. All the end products of the formula I were analyzed by NMR, LCMS.
2. Intermediates were analyzed by NMR and/or TLC and/or LCMS.
3. Most compounds were purified by flash chromatography on silica gel, recrystallization and/or swish (suspension in a solvent followed by filtration of the solid).
4. The course of the reactions were followed by thin layer chromatography (TLC) and/or LCMS and reaction times are given for illustration only.

JAK2 Kinase Activity Inhibition Assay and Determination of IC50 
The kinase activity was measured using a modified version of the homogeneous time-resolved tyrosine kinase assay described in Park et al. Anal. Biochem. 269, 94-104 (1999).
The procedure for determining the potency of a compound to inhibit JAK2 kinase comprises the following steps:

    
    
        1. prepare 3-fold serial diluted compound/inhibitor solutions in 100% (DMSO) at 20× of the final desired concentrations in a 96 well plate;
        2. prepare a master reaction mix containing 6.67 mM MgCl2, 133.3 mM NaCl, 66.7 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 0.13 mg/ml BSA, 2.67 mM dithiothreitol, 0.27 recombinant JAK2 and 666.7 nM biotinylated synthetic peptide substrate (biotin-ahx-EQEDEPEGDYFEWLE-CONH2) (SEQ. ID NO.: 1);
        3. in a black assay plate, add 2.5 μl compound/inhibitor (or DMSO) and 37.5 μl master reaction mix per well; initiate the kinase reaction by adding 10 μl of 75 μM MgATP per well, allow the reactions to proceed for 80 minutes at room temperate; (the final conditions for the reactions are: 50 nM JAK2 JH1 domain (Upstate), 2.0 μM substrate, 15 μM MgATP, 5 mM MgCl2, 100 mM NaCl, 2 mM DTT, 0.1 mg/ml BSA, 50 mM Tris (pH 7.4) and 5% DMSO);
        4. stop the kinase reaction with 50 μl of Stop/Detection buffer containing 10 mM EDTA, 25 mM HEPES, 0.1% TRITON X-100, 0.126 μg/ml Eu-chelate labeled anti-phosphotyrosine antibody PY20 (cat. # AD0067, PerkinElmer) and 45 μg/ml Streptavidin-allophycocyanin conjugate (cat. # PJ25S, Prozyme); and
        5. read HTRF signals on a Victor reader (PerkinElmer) in HTRF mode after 60 minutes.

Assay For JAK Family Protein Kinase Activity
Materials: Streptavidin•allophycocyanin conjugate (SA•APC) and Europium•cryptate (Eu•K) were from Packard Instrument Company. Eu•K conjugated pY20 was produced as described in Cummings, R. T.; McGovern, H. M.; Zheng, S.; Park, Y. W. and Hermes, J. D. Use Of A Phosphotyrosine-Antibody Pair As A General Detection Method In Homogeneous Time Resolved Fluorescence-Application To Human Immunodeficiency Viral Protease. Analytical Biochemistry 1999, 33, 79-93. Homogenous time resolved fluorescence (HTRF) measurements were made using the Discovery instrument from Packard. T-stim Culture Supplement was from Collaborative Biomedical Research. Recombinant mouse IL2 was from Pharmingen or R & D.

JAK family kinase expression: JAK3, TYK2 and JAK2 kinase domains with N-terminal “Flag” affinity tags were expressed in Sf9 cells using standard baculovirus methods. The human JAK3 gene and the human TYK2 gene can be purchased from Update (now part of Millpore Corporation). Human JAK2 kinase domain was cloned from a MOLT4 cDNA library (Clonetech).

Assay for JAK family protein kinase activity: Tyrosine kinase activity was measured by detection of the tyrosine phosphorylated peptide amino hexanoyl biotin-EQEDEPEGDYFEWLE-NH2 (SEQ. ID NO.: 1); (S, hereafter) detected by time-resolved fluorescence using a europium labeled antibody to phosphotyrosine (pY20). The JAK3(JH1) catalyzed phosphorylation reactions were carried out in a 30 uL total reaction volume. The compound was run at 5% DMSO and preincubated with enzyme buffer (EB). The EB comprised Invitrogen 5× kinase buffer (50 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% Brij-35, 1 mM EGTA, 0.1 mg/ml BSA), 2 mM (final) DTT, 2 μM (final) S, and 250 pM (final) JAK3 enzyme. The assay was run at ATP Km (5 μM final) for 40 to 80 minutes. Reactions were run at ambient temperature and quenched with an equal volume of quench buffer (QB) (10 mM EDTA, 25 mM HEPES, 0.1% TRITON X-100) containing 50 μg/mL SA•APC conjugate and 0.75 nM Eu•K conjugated pY20. This mixture was incubated at ambient temperature for at least 60 minutes and read on an optimized fluorescent reader at Ex=320 nm and Em1=665 nm (SA-APC) and Em2=615 nM (Eu). The data was analyzed by using a standard 4P fit on the ratio of the Em results: (EM1÷EM2)*10,000.

JAK2 384-Well HEL irf1-bla AlphaScreenTM SureFireTM p-STAT5 Assay:

Principle: When JAK2 is activated and dimerized, it phosphorylates STAT5 which translocates to the nucleus and actives the transcription of target genes. AlphaScreenTM SureFireTM p-STAT5 assay (Perkin Elmer and TGR Biosciences) uses both biotinylated anti-phospho-STAT5 antibody, which is captured by Streptavidin-coated Donor beads, and anti-total STAT5 antibody, which is captured by Protein A conjugated Acceptor beads. The irf1-bla HEL CellSensorTM cell line was created by transducing parental HEL 92.1.7 cells (ATCC) with the pLenti-bsd/irf1-bla CellSensorTM vector. When both antibodies bind to phospho-STAT5 proteins released from HEL irf1-bla cells, the Donor and Acceptor beads are brought into the close proximity (<=200 nm) and a cascade of chemical reactions is initiated to produce a greatly amplified signal. Upon laser excitation, a photosensitizer in the donor bead converts ambient oxygen to a more excited singlet state. The singlet state oxygen molecules diffuse across to react with a chemiluminescer in the acceptor bead that further activates fluorophores contained within the same bead. The fluorophores subsequently emit light at 520-620 nm. The emitted light intensity is directly proportional to the amount of phospho-STAT5 proteins released from HEL irf1-bla cells.

Growth Medium: RPMI Medium 1640 (Invitrogen) with 10% dialyzed FBS (Invitrogen), 1 μg/ml blasticidin, 0.1 mM NEAA, 1 mM sodium pyruvate and 1% Pen-Strep.

Method: On day 1, split HEL irf1-bla cells at density of 500,000 cells/ml. Incubate cells in a tissue culture flask at 37° C., 5% CO2 overnight. On day 2, harvest cells and wash the once with HBSS (Invitrogen) containing 0.5% dialyzed FBS. Next, seed cells at a density of 100,000 cells/well in 8 ul of HBSS w/0.5% dialyzed FBS in 384-well microtiter plates. Temporarily put these cell plates in a 37° C., 5% CO2 incubator. To prepare a compound plate, prepare serially diluted compounds in DMSO at a 500× stock concentration. Transfer 2 uL of the serially diluted compounds from the compound plate to an intermediate dilution plate containing 198 uL of HBSS w/0.5% dialyzed FBS. Next, transfer 2 uL of intermediately diluted compounds to each well of the cell plate to get 1:500 final dilution of each test compound and controls. Incubate the cell plates at 37° C., 5% CO2 for 1 hr. Add 2.5 ul/well of 5× lysis buffer from the kit to cell plates. Gently agitate the plates for 5-10 min.

Make detection reagent mixture A by adding together 800 uL reaction buffer, 20 uL acceptor beads, and 200 uL activation buffer. Add 15 uL/well of detection mixture A to the cell plates and gently agitate the plates for 1-2 mM. Seal the plates with an adhesive cover and incubate at room temperature for 2 hr, avoiding exposure to light. Make detection mixture B by adding together 400 uL dilution buffer and 20 uL donor beads. Add 6 uL/well of mixture B to the cell plates and gently agitate the plates for 1-2 min. Seal the plates with an adhesive cover and incubate at room temperature for 2 hr, avoiding exposure to light. Read the plates on an AlphaScreen-capable plate reader.

In Vitro PDK1 Kinase Assay
Activated recombinant full-length mT(Glu-Glu-Phe) tagged human PDK1 is used to determine whether the compounds of the instant invention modulate the enzymatic activity of this kinase.
The cDNA, encoding full-length PDK1, is subcloned into a baculovirus expression vector pBlueBac4.5 (Invitrogen), containing an in frame middle T tag (MEYMPME) at its N-terminus. Soluble activated recombinant full-length mT(Glu-Glu-Phe) tagged human PDK1 is expressed in a baculovirus-infected Sf9 insect cells (Kemp Biotechnologies), according to the protocol recommended by the manufacturer. Immunoaffinity purification of the PDK1 kinase from the insect cell lysate is performed using a middle Tag antibody bound to Protein G-EE column. Upon elution using 50 mM Tris pH 7.4, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM EGTA, 0.5 mM Na3VO4, 1 mM DTT, 50 mM NaF, Na Pyrophosphate, Na-β-glycerophosphate, 10% glycerol, Complete, 1 μM microcystein, and 50 μg/ml EYMPME peptide, fractions containing PDK1 protein are pooled together, based on SDS-PAGE and western blot analyses, and then analyzed for protein concentration using BCA Protein Assay (Pierce) with BSA as standard. The final product was aliquoted and flash frozen in liquid nitrogen before being stored at −80° C. Resulting PDK1 protein has MW of 64 kDa, is phosphorylated ‘by default’ and purifies as an activated kinase from insect cells.
The procedure for determining the potency of a compound to inhibit PDK1 kinase comprises the following steps:

    
    
        1. Prepare 3-fold serial diluted compound solutions in 100% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at 20× of the desired final concentrations in a 384-well plate.
        2. Prepare a master reaction mix containing 62.5 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 12.5 mM MgCl2, 0.013% Brij-35, 1.25 mM EGTA, 2.5 mM dithiothreitol, 1.25 nM recombinant PDK1 and 375 nM biotinylated synthetic peptide substrate (Biotin-GGDGATMKTFCGGTPSDGDPDGGEFTEF-COOH) (SEQ. ID NO.: 2).
        3. In a black assay plate, add 2.5 μl of compound solution (or DMSO) and 22.5 μl of master reaction mix per well. Pre-incubate for 10 min. Initiate the kinase reaction by adding 6 μl of 0.25 mM MgATP per well. Allow the reactions to proceed for 25 mM at room temperature. The final conditions for the reaction are 1 nM PDK1, 300 nM peptide substrate, 5 μM MgATP, 10 mM MgCl2, 2 mM DTT, 50 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 0.01% Brij-35, 1 mM EGTA and 5% DMSO.
        4. Stop the kinase reaction with 30 μl of Stop/Detection buffer containing 10 mM EDTA, 1× Lance Detection Buffer (cat. # CR97-100, PerkinElmer), 1% SuperBlocking in TBS (cat. #37535, Pierce), 5 nM phospho-Akt(T308) monoclonal antibody (cat. #4056, Cell Signaling Technologies), 5 nM Lance labeled Eu-Anti-rabbit IgG (cat. # AD0083, PerkinElmer), and 100 nM Streptavidin-allophycocyanin conjugate (cat. # PJ25S, Prozyme).
        5. Read HTRF signals on an Envision reader (PerkinElmer) in HTRF mode after 60 mM.
        6. IC50 is determined by fitting the observed relationship between compound concentration and HTRF signal with a 4-parameter logistic equation.
