Description

Australian Patents Act 1990 - Regulation 3.2A ORIGINAL COMPLETE SPECIFICATION STANDARD PATENT Invention Title "Compounds and methods for inhibiting mitotic progression by inhibition of Aurora kinase" The following statement is a full description of this invention, including the best method of performing it known to us:- COMPOUNDS AND METHODS FOR INHIBITING MITOTIC PROGRESSION (Attorney Docket No. MPI04-043P2RNWO M) This is a divisional of Australian Patent Application No. 2005243175, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention [001] This invention relates to compounds and methods for the treatment of cancer. In particular, the invention provides compounds that inhibit Aurora kinase enzymes, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, and methods of using the compounds for the treatment of cancer. Background of the Invention [0021 According to the American Cancer Society, an estimated 1.4 million Americans were newly-diagnosed with cancer in 2004 and about 560,000 victims died from the disease. While medical advance have improved cancer survival rates, there is a continuing need for new and more effective treatment. [003] Cancer is characterized by uncontrolled cell reproduction. Mitosis is a stage in the cell cycle during which a series of complex events ensure the fidelity of chromosome separation into two daughter cells. Several current cancer therapies, including the taxanes and vinca alkaloids, act to inhibit the mitotic machinery. Mitotic progression is largely regulated by proteolysis and by phosphorylation events that are mediated by mitotic kinases. Aurora kinase family members (e.g., Aurora A, Aurora B, Aurora C) regulate mitotic progression through modulation of centrosome separation, spindle dynamics, spindle assembly checkpoint, chromosome alignment, and cytokinesis (Dutertre et al., Oncogene, 21: 6175 (2002); Berdnik et al., Curr. Biol., 12: 640 (2002)). Overexpression and/or amplification of Aurora kinases have been linked to oncogenesis in several tumor types including those of colon and breast (Warner et al., Mol. Cancer Ther., 2: 589 (2003); Bischoff et al., EMBO, 17: 3062 (1998); Sen et al., Cancer Res., 94: 1320 (2002)). Moreover, Aurora kinase inhibition in tumor cells results in mitotic arrest and apoptosis, suggesting that these kinases are important targets for cancer therapy (Ditchfield, J. Cell Biol., 161: 267 (2003); Harrington et al., Nature Med., 1 (2004)). Given the central role of mitosis in the progression of virtually all malignancies, inhibitors of the Aurora kinases are expected to have application across a broad range of human tumors. There is thus a need for new Aurora kinase inhibitors. - I - DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [0041 This invention provides compounds that inhibit Aurora kinase.

[0051 The invention further provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of formula (A), as well as uses of the claimed compounds for intbiting Aurora kinase activity and for treating Aurora kinase-mediated disorders. 1006] Compounds of this invention include those described generally above, and are further illustrated by the classes, subclasses, and species disclosed herein. Terms used herein shall be accorded the following defined meanings, unless otherwise indicated. [0071 As used herein, the term "Aurora kinase" refers to any one of a family of related serine/ threonine kinases involved in mitotic progression. A variety of cellular proteins that play a role in cell division are substrates for phosphorylation by Aurora kinase enzymes, including, without limitation, histone H3, p 53, CENP-A, myosin II regulatory light chain, protein phosphatase-1, TPX-2, INCENP, survivin, topoisomerase I alpha, vimentin, MBD-3, MgcRacGAP, desmin, Ajuba, XTEg5 (in Xenopus), NdclOp (in budding yeast), and D-TACC (in Drosophila). Aurora kinase enzymes also are themselves substrates for autophosphorylation, e.g., at Thr288. Unless otherwise indicated by context, the term "Aurora kinase" is meant to refer to any Aurora kinase protein from any species, including, without limitation, Aurora A, Aurora B, and Aurora C, preferably Aurora A or B. Preferably, the Aurora kinase is a human Aurora kinase. [008] The term "Aurora kinase inhibitor" or "inhibitor of Aurora kinase" is used to signify a compound having a structure as defined herein, which is capable of interacting with an Aurora kinase and inhibiting its enzymatic activity. Inhibiting Aurora kinase enzymatic activity means reducing the ability of an Aurora kinase to phosphorylate a substrate peptide or protein. In various embodiments, such reduction of Aurora kinase activity is at least about 50%, at least about 75%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, or at least about 99%. In various embodiments, the concentration of Aurora kinase inhibitor required to reduce an Aurora kinase enzymatic activity is less than about 1 pM, less than about 500 nM, less than about 100 nM, or less than about 50 nM. [009] In some embodiments, such inhibition is selective, i.e., the Aurora kinase inhibitor reduces the ability of an Aurora kinase to phosphorylate a substrate peptide or protein at a concentration that is lower than the concentration of the inhibitor that is required to produce another, unrelated biological effect, e.g., reduction of the enzymatic activity of a different kinase. In some embodiments, the Aurora kinase inhibitor also reduces the enzymatic activity of another kinase, preferably one that is implicated in cancer. [010] The term "about" is used herein to mean approximately, in the region of, roughly, or around. When the term "about" is used in conjunction with a numerical range, it modifies that range by extending the boundaries above and below the numerical values set forth. In general, the term "about" is used herein to modify a numerical value above and below the stated value by a variance of 10%. [011] As used herein, the term "comprises" means "includes, but is not limited to." -4- [0121 The term "aliphatic", as used herein, means straight-chain, branched or cyclic

[032] It will be apparent to one skilled in the art that certain compounds of this invention may exist in tautomeric forms, all such tautomeric forms of the compounds being within the scope of the invention. Unless otherwise stated, structures depicted herein are also meant to include all stereochemical forms of the structure; i.e., the R and S configurations for each asymmetric center. Therefore, single stereochemical isomers as well as enantiomeric and diastereomeric mixtures of the present compounds are within the scope of the invention. By way of example, the compounds of formula (A) wherein Rn is hydrogen can have R or S configuration at the carbon atom bearing Ring B.

One of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that variations in reaction conditions, including variations in solvent, reagents, catalysts, and reaction temperature, may be possible for each of the reactions described below. Alternate synthetic routes also are possible. [0128] Scheme 1 depicts a general synthetic route for preparation of compounds of formula (I) wherein each of rings A and B is an optionally substituted phenyl ring. One of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that certain compounds of formula (1) wherein one or both of rings A and B is other than phenyl can be prepared by a route analogous to that outlined in Scheme 1, by appropriate selection of the ketone starting material in Method G. [01291 Methods for the synthesis of dimethylaminomethylene-benzo[clazepin-5 ones of the formula v (see Scheme 1) have been described in U.S. patent numbers 3,947,585, 4,022,801 and 4,028,381. Methods for the conversion of compounds of formula v to pyrimido[5,4-d][2]benzazepines lacking a Ring C substituent also are known and have been described, e.g., in U.S. patent numbers 4,318,854 and 4,547,581. Compounds of the present invention (formula Ha), which include Ring C, can be prepared by the reaction of compounds of formula v with aryl or heteroaryl guanidines, as illustrated in Scheme 1. - 136- Scheme 1: General route for the synthesis of N-Aryl-(7-phenyl-5H-benzo[clpyrimido [4,5-elazepin-2-yl)-amines SNH NHBoc A MethodG A Method I I and optionally or B B I BI Method H Method J Method K or Method L HN N HN O NMe A |NH A Method M N - -N 4N Method Q B/ or B B Method R or Ha Method S v iv [01301 Methods for the synthesis of amino-substituted diaryl ketones of formula (i) are known, and exemplary synthetic procedures are described in the Examples.

Compound (iii) can be prepared from (ii) by cross-coupling of the aryl iodide with a protected propargyl amine, according to Method I. In Scheme 1, an iodo-substituted diaryl ketone is coupled with N-Boc-propargylamine, but those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that other halogen-substituted diaryl ketones and other protected propargylamines may be used. Additionally, a variety of catalysts, bases, solvents and temperatures may be employed for the cross-coupling reaction. For compounds wherein Ring B is other than phenyl, the preparation of (iii) may alternatively be accomplished by Method J, in which the Weinreb amide of a 2-iodobenzoic acid is coupled with N-Boc propargylamine, followed by a lithiated Ring B. - 137 - [0131] Stepwise conversion of (iii) to (iv) can be effected by sequential treatment with mercury (II) sulfate, HCl/dioxane, and N,N-diisopropylethylamine, according to Method K. Alternatively, (iii) can be converted to (iv) by sequential treatment with aqueous HCl/dioxane and sodium carbonate, according to Method L. Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that aryl alkynes can be hydrated with a variety of other strong acids, such as trifluoroacetic acid and sulfuric acid. Additionally, a variety of basic conditions can promote the azepine imine bond formation. [01321 Treatment of (iv) with NN-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal in various solvents and at various temperatures affords (v). Example 11 illustrates the conversion of (iv) to (v) in toluene at 80 *C. The conversion of (v) to the pyrimido compound (Ila) is accomplished by treatment with an aryl or heteroaryl guanidine. The reaction may be performed by submitting a reaction mixture containing (v), an aryl or heteroaryl guanidine, and N,N-diisopropylethylamine in DMF to microwave irradiation, according to Method Q. Alternatively, the latter reaction may be performed in the presence of potassium carbonate in refluxing ethanol, according to Method R. [0133] In some embodiments, preparation of (Ila) may alternatively be accomplished by Method S, in which (v) is first treated with guanidine hydrochloride to form a 5H-benzo[c]pyrimido[4,5-elazepin-2-yl amine. Conversion of the amine to the corresponding iodide, followed by cross-coupling with a heteroaryl amine then affords compound (Ila), in which Ring C is heteroaryl. - 138- Scheme 2: General route for the synthesis of compounds of formula (A-1). 0 Step 1 0 Step 2 HN Q Q - CN No Or , CN ONN-, vi N.CH3 HN N vil H 3 C CN viii

[01401 Methods for the synthesis of heterocyclic-substituted carboxylic acids of formula (xii) are well-known and are widely described in the literature.

Indian Chem. Soc., 59(6):783-6 (1982). [01411 The preparation of acid (xiv) may be accomplished by treatment of ester (xiii) with a dilute aqueous solution of an alkali-metal hydroxide, e.g., sodium or lithium hydroxide. Examples of this transformation have been described by Portevin et al, Tetrahedron Letters, 44(52):9263-9265 (2003) [0142] Compound (xiv) may be cyclized to azepinedione (xv) by treatment with a cyclodehydration reagent, for example polyphosphoric acid (PPA), as described by Annoura et a!, Tetrahedron Letters 36(3):413-16 (1995).

[01451 Conversion of pyrimidinoazepinone (xvii) to imidoyl chloride (xviii) may be accomplished by reaction of (xvii) with a chlorinating reagent, typically POCl, or SOCI 2 . Compound (xviii) may then be cross-coupled with an organoboronic acid using palladium catalysis to yield azepine (xi), following the method of Nadin et at, J. Org. Chem., 68(7), 2844 2852 (2003). [01461 The compounds of this invention are inhibitors of Aurora kinase. The compounds can be assayed in vitro or in vivo for their ability to bind to and/or inhibit an Aurora kinase. In vitro assays include assays to determine inhibition of the ability of an Aurora kinase to phosphorylate a substrate protein or peptide. Alternate in vitro assays quantitate the ability of the compound to bind to an Aurora kinase. Inhibitor binding may be measured by radiolabelling the inhibitor prior to binding, isolating the inhibitor/Aurora kinase complex and determining the amount of radiolabel bound. Alternatively, inhibitor binding may be determined by running a competition experiment in which new inhibitors are incubated with Aurora kinase bound to a known radioligand. The compounds also can be assayed for their ability to affect cellular or physiological functions mediated by Aurora - 142 kinase activity. Assays for each of these activities are described in the Examples and/or are known in the art. [0147] In another aspect, therefore, the invention provides a method for inhibiting Aurora kinase activity in a cell, comprising contacting a cell in which inhibition of Aurora kinase is desired with an Aurora kinase inhibitor of formula (I). In some embodiments, the Aurora kinase inhibitor interacts with and reduces the activity of all enzymes of the Aurora kinase family in the cell. In some other embodiments, the Aurora kinase inhibitor interacts with and reduces the activity of fewer than all Aurora kinase enzymes in the cell. In certain preferred embodiments, the Aurora kinase inhibitor selectively inhibits one Aurora kinase enzyme in the cell. [0148] Preferably, the method according to this aspect of the invention causes an inhibition of cell proliferation of the contacted cells. The phrase "inhibiting cell proliferation" is used to denote an ability of an inhibitor of Aurora kinase to inhibit cell number or cell growth in contacted cells as compared to cells not contacted with the inhibitor. An assessment of cell proliferation can be made by counting cells using a cell counter or by an assay of cell viability, e.g., an MT, XTT, or WST assay. Where the cells are in a solid growth (e.g., a solid tumor or organ), such an assessment of cell proliferation can be made by measuring the growth, e.g., with calipers, and comparing the size of the growth of contacted cells with non-contacted cells. [0149] Preferably, the growth of cells contacted with the inhibitor is retarded by at least about 50% as compared to growth of non-contacted cells. In various embodiments, cell proliferation of contacted cells is inhibited by at least about 75%, at least about 90%, or at least about 95% as compared to non-contacted cells. In some embodiments, the phrase "inhibiting cell proliferation" includes a reduction in the number of contacted cells, as compare to non-contacted cells. Thus, an inhibitor of Aurora kinase that inhibits cell proliferation in a contacted cell may induce the contacted cell to undergo growth retardation, to undergo growth arrest, to undergo programmed cell death (i.e., apoptosis), or to undergo necrotic cell death. [0150] In another aspect, the invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I) as defined above, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. - 143- [0151] If pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of the invention are utilized in these compositions, the salts preferably are derived from inorganic or organic acids and bases. For reviews of suitable salts, see, e.g., Berge et al, 1. Pharm. Sci. 66:1-19 (1977) and Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 20th Ed., ed. A.

For example, compounds of formula (V), wherein Ring C is substituted with -CO 2 H may be formulated as the corresponding sodium salts. [0154] Also, basic nitrogen-containing groups may be quaternized with such agents as lower alkyl halides, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl chloride, bromides and iodides; dialkyl sulfates, such as dimethyl, diethyl, dibutyl and diamyl sulfates, long chain halides such as decyl, lauryl, myristyl and stearyl chlorides, bromides and iodides, aralkyl halides, such as benzyl and phenethyl bromides and others. Water or oil-soluble or dispersible products are thereby obtained. [0155] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" is used herein to refer to a material that is compatible with a recipient subject, preferably a mammal, more preferably a human, and is suitable for delivering an active agent to the target site without terminating the activity of the agent. The toxicity or adverse effects, if any, associated with the carrier preferably are commensurate with a reasonable risk/benefit ratio for the intended use of the active agent. - 144- [0156] The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention can be manufactured by methods well known in the art such as conventional granulating, mixing, dissolving, encapsulating, lyophilizing, or emulsifying processes, among others. Compositions may be produced in various forms, including granules, precipitates, or particulates, powders, including freeze dried, rotary dried or spray dried powders, amorphous powders, tablets, capsules, syrup, suppositories, injections, emulsions, elixirs, suspensions or solutions. Formulations may optionally contain stabilizers, pH modifiers, surfactants, bioavailability modifiers and combinations of these. [01571 Pharmaceutical formulations may be prepared as liquid suspensions or solutions using a liquid, such as, but not limited to, an oil, water, an alcohol, and combinations of these. Pharmaceutically suitable surfactants, suspending agents, or emulsifying agents, may be added for oral or parenteral administration. Suspensions may include oils, such as but not limited to, peanut oil, sesame oil, cottonseed oil, corn oil and olive oil. Suspension preparation may also contain esters of fatty acids such as ethyl oleate, isopropyl myristate, fatty acid glycerides and acetylated fatty acid glycerides. Suspension formulations may include alcohols, such as, but not limited to, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, hexadecyl alcohol, glycerol and propylene glycol. Ethers, such as but not limited to, poly(ethyleneglycol), petroleum hydrocarbons such as mineral oil and petrolatum; and water may also be used in suspension formulations.

Such pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may be administered orally, parenterally, by inhalation spray, topically, rectally, nasally, buccally, vaginally or via an implanted reservoir. The term "parenteral" as used herein includes subcutaneous, - 145intravenous, intramuscular, intra-articular, intra-synovial, intrasternal, intrathecal, intrahepatic, intralesional and intracranial injection or infusion techniques. Preferably, the compositions are administered orally, intravenously, or subcutaneously. The formulations of the invention may be designed to be short-acting, fast-releasing, or long-acting. Still further, compounds can be administered in a local rather than systemic means, such as administration (e.g., by injection) at a tumor site. [0160] Sterile injectable forms of the compositions of this invention may be aqueous or oleaginous suspension. These suspensions may be formulated according to techniques known in the art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. 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-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution and isotonic sodium chloride solution. 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 di-glycerides. Fatty acids, such as oleic acid and its glyceride derivatives are useful in the preparation of injectables, as are natural pharmaceutically-acceptable oils, such as olive oil or castor oil, especially in their polyoxyethylated versions. These oil solutions or suspensions may also contain a long-chain alcohol diluent or dispersant, such as carboxymethyl cellulose or similar dispersing agents which are commonly used in the formulation of pharmaceutically acceptable dosage forms including emulsions and suspensions. Other commonly used surfactants, such as Tweens, Spans and other emulsifying agents or bioavailability enhancers which are commonly used in the manufacture of pharmaceutically acceptable solid, liquid, or other dosage forms may also be used for the purposes of formulation. Compounds may be formulated for parenteral administration by injection such as by bolus injection or continuous infusion. A unit dosage form for injection may be in ampoules or in multi- dose containers. [01611 The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention may be orally administered in any orally acceptable dosage form including, but not limited to, capsules, tablets, aqueous suspensions or solutions. In the case of tablets for oral use, carriers that are commonly used include lactose and corn starch. Lubricating agents, such as magnesium stearate, are also typically added. For oral administration in a capsule form, useful diluents include lactose and dried cornstarch. When aqueous suspensions are required for oral use, the active ingredient is combined with emulsifying and suspending agents. If desired, certain sweetening, flavoring or coloring agents may also be added. -146- [0162] Alternatively, the pharmaceutical compositions of this invention may be administered in the form of suppositories for rectal administration. These may be prepared by mixing the agent with a suitable non-irritating excipient which is solid at room temperature but liquid at rectal temperature and therefore will melt in the rectum to release the drug. Such materials include cocoa butter, beeswax and polyethylene glycols. [0163] The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention may also be administered topically, especially when the target of treatment includes areas or organs readily accessible by topical application, including diseases of the eye, the skin, or the lower intestinal tract. Suitable topical formulations are readily prepared for each of these areas or organs. (0164] Topical application for the lower intestinal tract may be effected in a rectal suppository formulation (see above) or in a suitable enema formulation. Topically transdermal patches may also be used. For topical applications, the pharmaceutical compositions may be formulated in a suitable ointment containing the active component suspended or dissolved in one or more carriers. Carriers for topical administration of the compounds of this invention include, but are not limited to, mineral oil, liquid petrolatum, white petrolatum, propylene glycol, polyoxyethylene, polyoxypropylene compound, emulsifying wax and water. Alternatively, the pharmaceutical compositions may be . formulated in a suitable lotion or cream containing the active components suspended or dissolved in one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. Suitable carriers include, but are not limited to, mineral oil, sorbitan monostearate, polysorbate 60, cetyl esters wax, cetearyl alcohol, 2-octyldodecanol, benzyl alcohol and water. [0165] For ophthalmic use, the pharmaceutical compositions may be formulated as micronized suspensions in isotonic, pH adjusted sterile saline, or, preferably, as solutions in isotonic, pH adjusted sterile saline, either with our without a preservative such as benzylalkonium chloride. Alternatively, for ophthalmic uses, the pharmaceutical compositions may be formulated in an ointment such as petrolatum. [0166] The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention may also be administered by nasal aerosol or inhalation. Such compositions are prepared according to techniques well known in the art of pharmaceutical formulation and may be prepared as solutions in saline, employing benzyl alcohol or other suitable preservatives, absorption promoters to enhance bioavailability, fluorocarbons, and/or other conventional solubilizing or dispersing agents. [0167] The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention are particularly useful in therapeutic applications relating to an Aurora kinase-mediated disorder. As used herein, - 147the term "Aurora kinase-mediated disorder" includes any disorder, disease or condition which is caused or characterized by an increase in Aurora kinase expression or activity, or which requires Aurora kinase activity. The term "Aurora kinase-mediated disorder" also includes any disorder, disease or condition in which inhibition of Aurora kinase activity is beneficial. Aurora kinase-mediated disorders include proliferative disorders. Non-limiting examples of proliferative disorders include chronic inflammatory proliferative disorders, e.g., psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis; proliferative ocular disorders, e.g., diabetic retinopathy; benign proliferative disorders, e.g., hemangiomas; and cancer. [0168] Preferably, the composition is formulated for administration to a patient having or at risk of developing or experiencing a recurrence of an Aurora kinase-mediated disorder. The term "patient", as used herein, means an animal, preferably a mammal, more preferably a human. Preferred pharmaceutical compositions of the invention are those formulated for oral, intravenous, or subcutaneous administration. However, any of the above dosage forms containing a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the invention are well within the bounds of routine experimentation and therefore, well within the scope of the instant invention. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition of the invention may further comprise another therapeutic agent. Preferably, such other therapeutic agent is one normally administered to patients with the disease or condition being treated. [0169] By "therapeutically effective amount" is meant an amount sufficient to cause a detectable decrease in Aurora kinase activity or the severity of an Aurora kinase-mediated disorder. The amount of Aurora kinase inhibitor needed will depend on the effectiveness of the inhibitor for the given cell type and the length of time required to treat the disorder. It should also be understood that a specific dosage and treatment regimen for any particular patient will depend upon a variety of factors, including the activity of the specific compound employed, the age, body weight, general health, sex, and diet of the patient, time of administration, rate of excretion, drug combinations, the judgment of the treating physician, and the severity of the particular disease being treated. The amount of additional therapeutic agent present in a composition of this invention typically will be no more than the amount that would normally be administered in a composition comprising that therapeutic agent as the only active agent. Preferably, the amount of additional therapeutic agent will range from about 50% to about 100% of the amount normally present in a composition comprising that agent as the only therapeutically active agent. - 148- [01701 In another aspect, the invention provides a method for treating a patient having or at risk of developing or experiencing a recurrence of an Aurora kinase-mediated disorder. The method comprises the step of administering to the patient a compound or pharmaceutical composition according to the invention. The compounds and pharmaceutical compositions of the invention can be used to achieve a beneficial therapeutic or prophylactic effect, for example, in a patient with a proliferative disorder, as discussed above. The compounds and pharmaceutical compositions of the invention are particularly useful for the treatment of cancer. [01711 As used herein, the term "cancer" refers to a cellular disorder characterized by uncontrolled or disregulated cell proliferation, decreased cellular differentiation, inappropriate ability to invade surrounding tissue, and/or ability to establish new growth at ectopic sites. The term "cancer" includes, but is not limited to, solid tumors and bloodborne tumors. The term "cancer" encompasses diseases of skin, tissues, organs, bone, cartilage, blood, and vessels. The term "cancer" further encompasses primary and metastatic cancers. [01721 Non-limiting examples of solid tumors that can be treated by the methods of the invention include pancreatic cancer; bladder cancer; colorectal cancer; breast cancer, including metastatic breast cancer; prostate cancer, including androgen-dependent and androgen-independent prostate cancer; renal cancer, including, e.g., metastatic renal cell carcinoma; hepatocellular cancer; lung cancer, including, e.g., non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC), and adenocarcinoma of the lung; ovarian cancer, including, e.g., progressive epithelial or primary peritoneal cancer; cervical cancer; gastric cancer; esophageal cancer; head and neck cancer, including, e.g., squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck; melanoma; neuroendocrine cancer, including metastatic neuroendocrine tumors; brain tumors, including, e.g., glioma, anaplastic oligodendroglioma, adult glioblastoma multiforme, and adult anaplastic astrocytoma; bone cancer; and soft tissue sarcoma. [0173] In some other embodiments, the cancer is a hematologic malignancy. Non limiting examples of hematologic malignancy include acute myeloid leukemia (AML); chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), including accelerated CML and CML blast phase (CML-BP); acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL); chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL); Hodgkin's disease (HD); non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), including follicular lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma; B-cell lymphoma; T-cell lymphoma; multiple myeloma (MM); Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia; myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), including refractory - 149anemia (RA), refractory anemia with ringed siderblasts (RARS), (refractory anemia with excess blasts (RAEB), and RAEB in transformation (RAEB-T); and myeloproliferative syndromes. [0174] In some embodiments, the compound or composition of the invention is used to treat a cancer in which the activity of an Aurora kinase is amplified. In some embodiments, the compound or composition of the invention is used to treat a patient having or at risk of developing or experiencing a recurrence in a cancer selected from the group consisting of colorectal cancer, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, gastric cancer, prostate cancer, and pancreatic cancer. In certain embodiments, the cancer is selected from the group consisting of breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and pancreatic cancer. 0175] In some embodiments, the Aurora kinase inhibitor of the invention is administered in conjunction with another therapeutic agent. The other therapeutic agent may also inhibit Aurora kinase or may operate by a different mechanism. In some embodiments, the other therapeutic agent is one that is normally administered to patients with the disease or condition being treated. The Aurora kinase inhibitor of the invention may be administered with the other therapeutic agent in a single dosage form or as a separate dosage form. When administered as a separate dosage form, the other therapeutic agent may be administered prior to, at the same time as, or following administration of the Aurora kinase inhibitor of the invention. [0176] In some embodiments, the Aurora kinase inhibitor of the invention is administered in conjunction with a therapeutic agent selected from the group consisting of cytotoxic agents, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy. Non-limiting examples of cytotoxic agents suitable for use in combination with the Aurora kinase inhibitors of the invention include: antimetabolites, including, e.g., capecitibine, gemcitabine, 5-fluorouracil or 5-fluorouracil/ leucovorin, fludarabine, cytarabine, mercaptopurine, thioguanine, pentostatin, and methotrexate; topoisomerase inhibitors, including, e.g., etoposide, teniposide, camptothecin, topotecan, irinotecan, doxorubicin, and daunorubicin; vinca alkaloids, including, e.g., vincristine and vinblastin; taxanes, including, e.g., paclitaxel and docetaxel; platinum agents, including, e.g., cisplatin, carboplatin, and oxaliplatin; antibiotics, including, e.g., actinomycin D, bleomycin, mitomycin C, adriamycin, daunorubicin, idarubicin, doxorubicin and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin; alkylating agents such as melphalan, chlorambucil, busulfan, thiotepa, ifosfamide, carmustine, lomustine, semustine, streptozocin, decarbazine, and cyclophosphamide; thalidomide and related analogs, - 150 including, e.g., CC-5013 and CC-4047; protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors, including, e.g., imatinib mesylate and gefitinib; antibodies, including, e.g., trastuzumab, rituximab, cetuximab, and bevacizumab; mitoxantrone; dexamethasone; prednisone; and temozolomide.

The enzymatic reaction mixture, with or without Aurora inhibitors, was incubated for 3 hours at room temperature before termination with 100 gL of stop buffer (1% BSA, 0.05% Surfact-AMPS-20, and 100 mM EDTA). A total of 100 iL of the enzyme reaction mixture was transferred to wells of a Neutravidin-coated 96-well plate (Pierce) and incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes. The wells were washed with wash buffer (25 mM Tris, 150 mM sodium chloride, and 0.1% Tween 20) and incubated for 1 hour with 100 pL of antibody reaction mix containing 1% BSA, 0.05% Surfact-AMPS-20, anti-phospho-PKA rabbit polyclonal antibody (1:2000, New England Biolabs), and europium labeled anti-rabbit IgG (1:2000, Perkin Elmer). The wells were washed and then the bound europium was liberated using 100 pL of Enhancement Solution (Perkin Elmer). Quantification of europium was done using a WallacTM EnVision (Perkin Elmer). - 180- Example 23: Cellular Assay Aurora Phosphorylation Assays (0249] Inhibition of Aurora A or Aurora B activity in Vhole cell systems can be assessed by determination of decreased phosphorylation of Aurora substrates. For example, determining decreased phosphorylation of histone H3 on Serine 10, an Aurora B substrate can be used to measure inhibition of Aurora B activity in a whole cell system. Alternatively, any known Aurora B substrate can be used in similar assay methods to assess inhibition of Aurora B activity. Similarly, Aurora A inhibition can be determined using analogous methods and known Aurora A substrates for detection. [0250] In a specific example, HeLa cells were seeded in a 96-well cell culture plate (10 x 10' cells/well) and incubated overnight at 37 *C. Cells were incubated with Aurora inhibitors for 1 hour at 37 *C, fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 minutes and then permeabilized with 0.5% TritonX-100 in PBS. Cells were incubated with mouse anti-pHisH3 (1:120, Cell Signaling Technologies) and rabbit anti-mitotic marker (1:120, Millennium Pharmaceuticals Inc.) antibodies for 1 hour at room temperature. After washing with PBS the cells were stained with anti-rabbit IgG Alexa 488 (1:180, Molecular Probes) and anti mouse IgG Alexa 594 (1:180) for 1 hour at room temperature. DNA was then stained with Hoechst solution (2 pg/ml). The percentage of pHisH3 and anti-mitotic positive cells were quantified using Discovery I and MetaMorph (Universal Imaging Corp.). Aurora B inhibition was determined by calculating the decrease of pHisH3 positive cells. Anti-proliferation Assays [02511 HCT-116 (1000) or other tumor cells in 100 pAL of appropriate cell culture medium (McCoy's 5A for HCT-116, Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Invitrogen) was seeded in wells of a 96-well cell culture plate and incubated overnight at 37 *C. Aurora inhibitors were added to the wells and the plates were incubated for 96 hours at 37 *C. MTT or WST reagent (10 sL, Roche) was added to each well and incubated for 4 hours at 37 *C as described by the manufacturer. For MTT the metabolized dye was solublized overnight according to manufacturer's instructions (Roche). The optical density for each well was read at 595 nm (primary) and 690 nm (reference) for the MTT and 450 nm for the WST using a spectrophotometer (Molecular Devices). For the MTT the reference optical density values were subtracted from the values of the primary wavelength. Percent inhibition was calculated using the values from a DMSO control set to 100%. - 181 - Example 24: In vivo Assays In vivo Tumor Efficacy Model [02521 HCT-116 (1 x 106) or other tumor cells in 100 FL of phosphate buffered saline were aseptically injected into the subcutaneous space in the right dorsal flank of female CD 1 nude mice (age 5-8 weeks, Charles River) using a 23-ga needle. Beginning at day 7 after inoculation tumors were measured twice weekly using a vernier caliper. Tumor volumes were calculated using standard procedures (0.5 x (length x width 2 )). When the tumors reached a volume of approximately 200 mm 3 mice were injected i.v. in the tail vein with Aurora inhibitors (100 L) at various doses and schedules. All control groups received vehicle alone. Tumor size and body weight was measure twice a week and the study was terminated when the control tumors reached approximately 2000 mm 3 .
