FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to organic compounds useful for therapy and/or prophylaxis in a mammal, in particular to pyridyl compounds that inhibit the hedgehog signaling pathway and are useful in the treatment of hyperproliferative diseases and angiogenesis mediated diseases.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Hedgehog (Hh) protein was first identified in Drosophila melanogaster as a segment-polarity gene involved in embryo patterning (Nusslein-Volhard et al., Roux. Arch. Dev. Biol. 193: 267-282 (1984)). Three orthologs of Drosophila hedgehog (Sonic, Desert and Indian) were later identified to occur in all vertebrates including fish, birds and mammals. Desert hedgehog (DHh) is expressed principally in !0 the testes, both in mouse embryonic development and in the adult rodent and human; Indian hedgehog (IHh) is involved in bone development during embryogenesis and in bone formation in the adult; and, Sonic hedgehog (SHh) is expressed at high levels in the notochord and floor plate of developing vertebrate embryos. In vitro explant assays as well as ectopic expression of SHh in transgenic animals have shown that SHh plays a key role in neuronal tube patterning (Echelard et aL, supra.; 25 Ericson et aL, Cell 81: 747-56 (1995); Marti et aL, Nature 375: 322-5 (1995); Krauss et aL, Cell 75, 1432-44 (1993); Riddle et aL, Cell 75: 1401-16 (1993); Roelink et al, Cell 81:445-55 (1995); Hynes et aL, Neuron 19: 15-26 (1997)). Hh also plays a role in the development of limbs (Krauss et al., Cell 75: 1431-44 (1993); Laufer et aL, Cell 79, 993-1003 (1994)), somites (Fan and Tessier-Lavigne, Cell 79, 1175-86 (1994); Johnson et al., Cell 79: 1165-73 (1994)), lungs (Bellusci et aL, Develop. 124: 5330 63 (1997) and skin (Oro et aL, Science 276:
2019226273 09 Sep 2019
817-21 (1997)). Likewise, IHh and DHh are involved in bone, gut and germinal cell development (Apelqvist et al., Curr. Biol. 7: 801-4 (1997); Bellusci et al., Dev. Suppl. 124: 53-63 (1997); Bitgood et al., Curr. Biol. 6: 298-304 (1996); Roberts et al., Development 121: 3163-74 (1995)).
Human SHh is synthesized as a 45 kDa precursor protein that upon autocatalytic cleavage yields a 20 kDa N-terminal fragment that is responsible for normal hedgehog signaling activity; and a 25 kDa C-terminal fragment that is responsible for autoprocessing activity in which the N-terminal fragment is conjugated to a cholesterol moiety (Lee, J.J., et al. (1994) Science 266, 1528- 1536; Bumcrot, D.A., et al. (1995), Mol. Cell Biol. 15, 2294-2303; Porter, J.A., et al. (1995) Nature 374, 10 363- 366). The N-terminal fragment consists of amino acid residues 24-197 of the full-length precursor sequence which remains membrane-associated through the cholesterol at its C-terminus (Porter, J.A., et al, (1996) Science 274, 255- 258; Porter, J.A., et al. (1995) Cell 86, 21-34). Cholesterol conjugation is responsible for the tissue localization of the hedgehog signal.
At the cell surface, the Hh signal is thought to be relayed by the 12 transmembrane domain protein Patched (Pte) (Hooper and Scott, Cell 59: 751-65 (1989); Nakano et al., Nature 341: 50813 (1989)) and the G-protein-coupled-like receptor Smoothened (Smo) (Alcedo et al., Cell 86: 221-232 (1996); van den Heuvel and Ingham, Nature 382: 547-551 (1996)). Both genetic and biochemical evidence support a receptor model where Pte and Smo are part of a multicomponent 20 receptor complex (Chen and Struhl, Cell 87: 553-63 (1996); Mango et al., Nature 384: 176-9 (1996); Stone et al., Nature 384: 129-34 (1996)). Upon binding of Hh to Pte, the normal inhibitory effect of Pte on Smo is relieved, allowing Smo to transduce the Hh signal across the plasma membrane. However, the exact mechanism by which Pte controls Smo activity still has yet to be clarified.
The signaling cascade initiated by Smo results in activation of Gii transcription factors that translocate into the nucleus where they control transcription of target genes. Gii has been shown to influence transcription of Hh pathway inhibitors such as Pte and Hip I in a negative feedback loop indicating that tight control the Hh pathway activity is required for proper cellular 30 differentiation and organ formation. Uncontrolled activation of Hh signaling pathway are associated with malignancies in particular those of the brain, skin and muscle as well as angiogenesis, An explanation for this is that Hh pathway has been shown to regulate cell proliferation in adults by activation of genes involved in cell cycle progression such as cyclin D
2019226273 09 Sep 2019 which is involved in Gl-S transition. Also, SHh blocks cell-cycle arrest mediated by p21, an inhibitor of cyclin dependent kinases. Hh signaling is further implicated in cancer by inducing components in the EGFR pathway (EGF, Her2) involved in proliferation as well as components in the PDGF (PDGFa) and VEGF pathways involved in angiogenesis. Loss of function mutations in the Pte gene have been identified in patients with the basal cell nevus syndrome (BCNS), a hereditary disease characterized by multiple basal cell carcinomas (BCCs). Dysfunctional Pte gene mutations have also been associated with a large percentage of sporadic basal cell carcinoma tumors (Chidambaram et al., Cancer Research 56: 4599-601 (1996); Gailani et al., Nature Genet. 14: 78-81 (1996); Hahn et al„ Cell 85: 841-51 (1996); Johnson et al., Science 272: 1668-71 (1996);
Unden et al,, Cancer Res. 56: 4562-5; Wicking et al., Am. J. Hum. Genet. 60: 21-6 (1997)). Loss of Pte function is thought to cause an uncontrolled Smo signaling in basal cell carcinoma. Similarly, activating Smo mutations have been identified in sporadic BCC tumors (Xie et al,, Nature 391: 90-2 (1998)), emphasizing the role of Smo as the signaling subunit in the receptor complex for SHh.
Various inhibitors of hedgehog signaling have been investigated such as Cyclopamine, a natural alkaloid that has been shown to arrest cell cycle at G0-G1 and to induce apoptosis in SCLC. Cyclopamine is believed to inhibit Smo by binding to its heptahelical bundle. Forskolin has been shown to inhibit the Hh pathway downstream from Smo by activating protein kinase A (PKA) 20 which maintains Gli transcription factors inactive. Despite advances with these and other compounds, there remains a need for potent inhibitors of the hedgehog signaling pathway.

Another class of active compounds which can be used in the present invention are those which are able to sensitize for or induce apoptosis by binding to death receptors (death receptor agonists). Such agonists of death receptors include death receptor ligands such as tumor necrosis factor a (TNF-α), tumor necrosis factor β (TNF-β, lymphotoxin-α) , LT-β (lymphotoxin-β), TRAIL (Apo2L, DR4 ligand), CD95 (Fas, APO-1) ligand, TRAMP (DR3, Apo-3) ligand, DR6 ligand as well as fragments and derivatives of any of said ligands. In a particular embodiment, the death receptor ligand is TNF-α. In another particular embodiment the death receptor ligand is Apo2L/TRAIL. Furthermore, death receptors agonists comprise agonistic antibodies to death receptors such as anti-CD95 antibody, anti-TRAIL-Rl (DR4) antibody, anti-TRAIL-R2 (DR5) antibody, anti-TRAIL-R3 antibody, anti-TRAIL-R4 antibody, anti-DR6 antibody, anti-TNF-Rl antibody and anti-TRAMP (DR3) antibody as well as fragments and derivatives of any of said antibodies.
For the purpose of sensitizing cells for apoptosis, the compounds of the present invention can be also used in combination with radiation therapy. The phrase radiation therapy refers to the use of electromagnetic or particulate radiation in the treatment of neoplasia. Radiation therapy is based on the principle that high-dose radiation delivered to a target area will result in the death of reproducing cells in both tumor and normal tissues. The radiation dosage regimen is generally defined in terms of radiation absorbed dose (rad), time and fractionation, and must be carefully defined by the oncologist. The amount of radiation a patient receives will depend on various consideration including the location of the tumor in relation to other organs of the body, and the extent to which the tumor has spread. Examples of radiotherapeutic agents are provided in, but not limited to, radiation therapy and is known in the art (Hellman, Principles of Radiation Therapy, Cancer, in Principles I and Practice of Oncology, 24875 (Devita et al., 4th ed., vol 1, 1993). Recent advances in radiation therapy include three-dimensional conformal external beam radiation, intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), stereotactic radiosurgery and brachytherapy (interstitial radiation therapy), the latter placing the source of radiation directly into the tumor as implanted seeds. These newer treatment modalities deliver greater doses of radiation to the tumor, which accounts for their increased effectiveness when compared to standard external beam radiation therapy.
Ionizing radiation with beta-emitting radionuclides is considered the most useful for radiotherapeutic applications because of the moderate linear energy transfer (LET) of the ionizing
2019226273 09 Sep 2019 particle (electron) and its intermediate range (typically several millimeters in tissue). Gamma rays deliver dosage at lower levels over much greater distances. Alpha particles represent the other extreme, they deliver very high LET dosage, but have an extremely limited range and must, therefore, be in intimate contact with the cells of the tissue to be treated. In addition, alpha emitters 5 are generally heavy metals, which limits the possible chemistry and presents undue hazards from leakage of radionuclide from the area to be treated. Depending on the tumor to be treated all kinds of emitters are conceivable within the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, the present invention encompasses types of non-ionizing radiation like e.g. ultraviolet (UV) radiation, high energy visible light, microwave radiation (hyperthermia therapy), infrared (IR) radiation and 10 lasers. In a particular embodiment of the present invention UV radiation is applied.
Compounds of the invention inhibit angiogenesis and are therefore useful in the treatment of diseases or conditions mediated by angiogenesis such as tumors, in particular solid tumors such as colon, lung, pancreatic, ovarian, breast and glioma, Furthermore, compounds of the invention are 15 useful for treating macular degeneration e.g. wet age-related macular degeneration. Compounds of the invention are also useful for treating inflammatory/immune diseases such as Crohn’s, inflammatory bowel disease, Sjogren’s syndrome, asthma, organ transplant rejection, systemic lupus erythmatoses, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, psoriasis and multiple sclerosis. Compounds of the invention are also useful as a depilatory.
The invention also includes pharmaceutical compositions or medicaments containing the compounds of the invention and a therapeutically inert carrier, diluent or excipient, as well as methods of using the compounds of the invention to prepare such compositions and medicaments. Typically, the compounds of the invention used in the methods of the invention are formulated by 25 mixing at ambient temperature at the appropriate pH, and at the desired degree of purity, with physiologically acceptable carriers, i.e., carriers that are non-toxic to recipients at the dosages and concentrations employed into a galenical administration form. The pH of the formulation depends mainly on the particular use and the concentration of compound, but may range from about 3 to about 8. A particular formulation is an acetate buffer at pH 5, The compounds for use herein may 30 be in a sterile formulation. The compound may be stored as a solid composition, although lyophilized formulations or aqueous solutions are acceptable.
The composition of the invention will be formulated, dosed, and administered in a fashion consistent with good medical practice. Factors for consideration in this context include the particular disorder being treated, the particular mammal being treated, the clinical condition of the individual patient, the cause of the disorder, the site of delivery of the agent, the method of administration, the scheduling of administration, and other factors known to medical practitioners. The “effective amount” of the compound to be administered will be governed by such considerations, and is the minimum amount necessary to decrease hedgehog pathway signaling or else is the minimum amount necessary to cause reduction in size, volume or mass of a tumor that is responsive to hedgehog signaling, or a reduction in the increase in size, volume or mass of such a tumor relative to the increase in the absence of administering the compound of the invention. Alternatively “effective amount” of the compound means the amount necessary to reduce the number of malignant cells or the rate in increase of the number of malignant cells. Alternatively, “effective amount” is the amount of the compound of the invention required to increase survival of patients afflicted with an anti-hedgehog pathway sensitive tumor. Such amount may be below the amount that is toxic to normal cells, or the mammal as a whole. With respect to non-malignant indications, “effective amount” means the amount of compound of the invention required to decrease severity of the particular indication or symptoms thereof.
Generally, the initial pharmaceutically effective amount of the compound of the invention administered parenterally per dose will be in the range of about 0.01 to about 100 mg/kg, for example about 0.1 to about 20 mg/kg of patient body weight per day, for example about 0.3 to about 15 mg/kg/day. Oral unit dosage forms, such as tablets and capsules, may contain from about 25 to about 1000 mg of the compound of the invention.
The compound of the invention may be administered by any suitable means, including oral, topical, transdermal, parenteral, subcutaneous, rectal, intraperitoneal, intrapulmonary, and intranasal, and, if desired for local treatment, intralesional administration. Parenteral infusions include intramuscular, intravenous, intraarterial, intraperitoneal, or subcutaneous administration. An example of a suitable oral dosage form is a tablet containing about 25mg, 50mg, lOOmg, 250mg, or 500mg of the compound of the invention compounded with about 90-30 mg anhydrous lactose, about 5-40 mg sodium croscarmellose, about 5-3 Omg polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) K30, and about 1-10 mg magnesium stearate. The powdered ingredients are first mixed together and then mixed with a solution of the PVP. The resulting composition can be dried, granulated, mixed with the magnesium stearate and compressed to tablet form using conventional equipment. An aerosol formulation can be prepared by dissolving the compound, for example 5-400 mg, of the invention in a suitable buffer solution, e.g. a phosphate buffer, adding a tonic ifier, e.g. a salt such sodium chloride, if desired. The solution is typically filtered, e.g. using a 0.2 micron filter, to remove impurities and contaminants. Topical formulations include ointments, creams, lotions,
2019226273 09 Sep 2019 powders, solutions, pessaries, sprays, aerosols and capsules. Ointments and creams may be formulated with an aqueous or oily base with the addition of suitable thickening and/or gelling agents and/or solvents. Such bases may include water and/or an oil such a liquid paraffin or a vegetable oil such as arachis oil or castor oil or a solvent such as a polyethylene glycol. Thickening agents which may be used include soft paraffin, aluminum stearate, cetostearyl alcohol, polyethylene glycols, microcrystalline wax and beeswax. Lotions may be formulated with an aqueous or oily base and may contain one or more emulsifying agents, stabilizing agents, dispersing agents, suspending agents or thickening agents. Powders for external application may be formed with the aid of any suitable powder base e.g. talc, lactose or starch. Drops may be formulated with an aqueous or non-aqueous base also comprising one or more dispersing agents, solubilizing agents or suspending agents.

Assay Procedure
S12 and MZ24 cells genetically modified to contain a luciferase reporter gene driven by the hedgehog-reseponsive Gli promoter were maintained on tissue culture dishes in Growth Medium at 37°C and 5% CO2. Cell cultures were passaged at sub-confluency at every 3-4 days. (1:20 to 1:40 for si2; 1:3 to 1:10 for MZ24). Cells were harvested and diluted in Growth Medium such that they could be plated in a microtitre plate at 10,000-20,000 cells (si2), or 20,000-30,000 cells (MZ24), per lOOul, per well. Cells were further incubated for -24-48 hours at 37°C and 5% CO2.
After -24-48 hour incubation the Growth Medium in the microtitre plates was replaced by Luciferase-Assay Medium (100 ul per well), with and without Sonic hedgehog-octyl conjugate, at 0.1-0.3 ug/ml (S12) or 0.5-1.0 ug/ml (MZ24), and test compounds. Cells were then further incubated for and additional 24 hrs.
Microtitre plates were then subjected to the luciferase reporter gene assay kit (LucLite™), with modifications to the manufacturer’s procedure wherein medium was removed and the substrate was reconstituted with 1:1 PBS/Ca/Mg: lysis buffer instead of straight lysis buffer. In brief, the PBS/Ca/Mg was mixed 1:1 with lysis buffer and lOmL were added to each substrate vial (of the 1000-assay kit). Then the assay media from the microtitre plate was discarded, and lOOul of this substrate mix was added to each well. Plates were incubated at room temperature for 20-30 minutes and then the Relative Light Units (RLUS) representing the relative expression level of the luciferase reporter gene were determined with a Topcount reader (Packard) or an Analyst reader (Molecular Devices). Compounds of the invention tested in the assays demonstrated reduced Gli expression in the reporter cell lines indicating hedgehog pathway signalling inhibition.
