STATEMENT OF GOVERNMENT INTEREST This invention was made with government support under Grants DK092005 and CA174019 awarded by the National Institutes of Health. The US government has certain rights in the invention.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [3] The present invention relates to compounds having pharmacological activity, to processes for preparation of such compounds, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising them, and to their use in therapy and prophylaxis of disease in a subject in need thereof, in particular for human and veterinarian treatments of pain, pruritus, cancer, inflammation and fibrotic diseases.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Lysophospholipids affect fundamental cellular functions that include proliferation, differentiation, survival, migration, adhesion, invasion, and morphogensis. Abnormal functions influence many biological processes leading to disease that include, but are not limited to fibrotic disease, inflammation, cancer and peripheral nerve injury.

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a lysophospholipid that has been shown to act through specific G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in an autocrine and paracrine fashion.

Antagonists of the LPA receptors find use in the treatment of diseases, disorders or conditions in which LPA plays a role.

Agents that interact with the lysophosphatidic acid receptors [LPARs] to reduce signal transduction through those receptors (i.e., by competitive or noncompetitive inhibition or acting as inverse agonists) reduce manifestations of the diseases described herein. Diseases and conditions whose etiology, progression or persistence is effected by in whole or in part by signaling through the lysophosphatidic acid receptor subtype 1 (LPA1R) are considered LPA-dependent. New agents having therapeutic utility for treating those LPA-dependent and other conditions and diseases described herein are needed.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Disclosed herein are compounds that inhibit the physiological activity of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), and therefore, are useful as agents for the treatment or prevention of diseases in which inhibition of the physiological activity of LPA is useful.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Definitions

[38] As used herein and unless otherwise stated or implied by context, terms that are used herein have the meanings defined below. Unless otherwise contraindicated or implied, e.g., by including mutually exclusive elements or options, in these definitions and throughout this specification, the terms "a" and "an" mean one or more and the term "or" means and/or where permitted by context. Thus, as used in the specification and the appended claims, the singular forms "a," "an" and "the" include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.

At various locations in the present disclosure, e.g., in any disclosed embodiments or in the claims, reference is made to compounds, compositions, or methods that “comprise” one or more specified components, elements or steps.

Invention embodiments also specifically include those compounds, compositions, compositions or methods that are or that consist of or that consist essentially of those specified components, elements or steps. The terms "comprising", "consist of" and "consist essentially of" have their normally accepted meanings under U.S. patent law unless otherwise specifically stated. The term “comprised of” is used interchangeably with the term “comprising” and are stated as equivalent terms. For example, disclosed compositions, devices, articles of manufacture or methods that "comprise" a component or step are open and they include or read on those compositions or methods plus an additional component(s) or step(s). Similarly, disclosed compositions, devices, articles of manufacture or methods that "consist of" a component or step are closed and they would not include or read on those compositions or methods having appreciable amounts of an additional component(s) or an additional step(s). Furthermore, use of the term "including" as well as other forms, such as "include", "includes," and "included," is not limiting. The section headings used herein are for organizational purposes only and are not to be construed as limiting the subject matter described. Unless otherwise indicated, conventional methods of mass spectroscopy, NMR, HPLC, protein chemistry, biochemistry, recombinant DNA techniques and pharmacology are employed.

"Bond" or "single bond" as used herein means a chemical bond between two atoms, or two moieties when the atoms joined by the bond are considered to be part of larger substructure. As explicitly stated or implied by context, when a group described herein is a bond, the referenced group is absent thereby allowing a bond to be formed between the remaining identified groups.

"Membered ring" as used herein means any cyclic structure. The term "membered" is meant to denote the number of skeletal atoms that constitute the ring.

Thus, by way of example and not limitation, those membered rings include cyclohexyl, pyridinyl, pyranyl and thiopyranyl, which are 6-membered rings and cyclopentyl, pyrrolyl, furanyl, and thienyl, which are 5-membered rings.

"Moiety" as used herein means a specific segment, fragment or functional group of a molecule or compound. Chemical moieties are sometimes indicated as chemical entities that are embedded in or appended (i.e., a substituent or variable group) to a molecule or compound.

“Alkyl” as used herein is a collection of carbon atoms that are covalently linked together in normal, secondary, tertiary or cyclic arrangements, i.e., in a linear, branched, cyclic arrangement or some combination thereof. An alkyl substituent to a structure is that chain of carbon atoms that is covalently attached to the structure through a sp carbon of the substituent. The alkyl substituents, as used herein, contains one or more saturated moieties or groups and may additionally contain unsaturated alkyl moieties or groups, i.e., the substituent may comprise one, two, three or more independently selected double bonds or triple bonds of a combination thereof, typically one double or one triple bond if such unsaturated alkyl moieties or groups are present .

Unsaturated alkyl moieties or groups include moieties or groups as described below for alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, and aryl moieties. Saturated alkyl moieties contain saturated carbon atoms (sp ) and no aromatic, sp or sp carbon atoms. The number of carbon atoms in an alkyl moiety or group can vary and typically is 1 to about 50, e.g., about 1-30 or about 1-20, unless otherwise specified, e.g., C alkyl or C1-C8 alkyl means an alkyl moiety containing 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 carbon atoms and C alkyl or C1-C6 means an alkyl moiety containing 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 carbon atoms.

[45] When an alkyl substituent, moiety or group is specified, species may include methyl, ethyl, 1-propyl (n-propyl), 2-propyl (iso-propyl, -CH(CH ) ), 1-butyl (n-butyl), 2- methylpropyl (iso-butyl, -CH CH(CH ) ), 2-butyl (sec-butyl, -CH(CH )CH CH ), 2- 2 3 2 3 2 3 methylpropyl (t-butyl, -C(CH ) ), amyl, isoamyl, sec-amyl and other linear, cyclic and branch chain alkyl moieties. Unless otherwise specified, alkyl groups can contain species and groups described below for cycloalkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl groups, aryl groups, arylalkyl groups, alkylaryl groups and the like.

Cycloalkyl as used here is a monocyclic, bicyclic or tricyclic ring system composed of only carbon atoms. The term "cycloalkyl" encompasses a monocyclic or polycyclic aliphatic, non-aromatic radical, wherein each of the atoms forming the ring (i.e. skeletal atoms) is a carbon atom. The number of carbon atoms in an cycloalkyl substituent, moiety or group can vary and typically is 3 to about 50, e.g., about 1-30 or about 1-20, unless otherwise specified, e.g., C alkyl or C3-C8 alkyl means an cycloalkyl substituent, moiety or group containing 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 carbon atoms and C alkyl or C3-C6 means an cycloalkyl substituent, moiety or group containing 3, 4, 5 or 6 carbon atoms. Cycloalkyl substituents, moieties or groups will typically have 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 or 20 carbon atoms and may contain exo or endo-cyclic double bonds or endo-cyclic triple bonds or a combination of both wherein the endo-cyclic double or triple bonds, or the combination of both, do not form a cyclic conjugated system of 4n + 2 electrons; wherein the bicyclic ring system may share one (i.e., spiro ring system) or two carbon atoms and the tricyclic ring system may share a total of 2, 3 or 4 carbon atoms, typically 2 or 3.

Unless otherwise specified, cycloalkyl substituents, moieties or groups can contain moieties and groups described for alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, arylalkyl, alkylaryl and the like and can contain one or more other cycloalkyl moieties. Thus, cycloalkyls may be saturated, or partially unsaturated. Cycloalkyls may be fused with an aromatic ring, and the points of attachment to the aromatic ring are at a carbon or carbons of the cycloalkyl substituent, moiety or group that is not an aromatic ring carbon atom.

Cycloalkyl groups include groups having from 3 to 10 ring atoms. Cycloalkyl substituents, moieties or groups include cyclopropyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, adamantly or other cyclic all carbon containing moieties. Cycloalkyls further include cyclobutyl, cyclopentenyl, cyclohexenyl, cycloheptyl and cyclooctyl. Cycloalkyl groups may be substituted or unsubstituted. Depending on the substituent structure, a cycloalkyl substituent can be a monoradical or a diradical (i.e., an cycloalkylene, such as, but not limited to, cyclopropan-1,1-diyl, cyclobutan-1,1-diyl, cyclopentan-1,1-diyl, cyclohexan-1,1-diyl, cyclohexan-1,4-diyl, cycloheptan-1,1-diyl, and the like).

Receptor Binding Assays Binding affinity of compounds of Formula I-XII were determined based on their ability to displace tritiated lysophosphatidic acid ([ H]-LPA) from CHO cells expressing LPA1R in a protocol similar to that described in reference 17. In a 96 well format, CHO cells expressing human LPA1R [Cerep] were treated with [ H]-LPA (2nM). Test compounds were added in increasing concentration to each well and incubated at room temperature for 90 minutes. At this time the plates were washed and the wells counted for radioactivity. Results were compared to a control in which cells were treated with [ H]-LPA in the presence of 10µM unlabeled LPA. The specific ligand binding to the receptors was defined as the difference between the total binding and the nonspecific binding determined in the presence of an excess of unlabelled ligand. The results were expressed as a percent of control specific binding ((measured specific binding/control specific binding) x 100) and as a percent inhibition of control specific binding (100- ((measured specific binding/control specific binding) x 100)) obtained in the presence of the test compounds. The IC value (concentration causing a half-maximal inhibition of control specific binding) and Hill coefficient (nH) were determined by non-linear regression analysis of the competition curve generated with mean replicate values using Hill equation curve fitting (Y = D + [(A – D)/(1 + (C/C50)nH)], where Y = specific binding, D = minimum specific binding, A = maximum specific binding, C = compound concentration, C50 = IC50, and nH = slope factor). This analysis was performed using a software developed at Cerep (Hill software) and validated by comparison with data generated by the commercial software SigmaPlot® 4.0 for Windows® (© 1997 by SPSS Inc.). The inhibition constant (Ki) was calculated using the Cheng Prusoff equation (Ki = IC50/(1+(L/KD)), where L = concentration of radioligand in the assay, and KD = affinity of the radioligand for the receptor). A scatchard plot was used to determine the Kd.

Example 58. Calcium Flux Assay Inhibition of LPA-stimulated Ca flux was used to assess compound potency using FLIPR technology in a 96 well plate format. The assay buffer used was a modified Hanks Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) where HBSS was supplemented to contain 20mM HEPES and 2.5mM Probenecid at pH7.4 (Millipore, GPCR Profiler ). LPA1R expressing cells (Millipore) were plated and prepared 24 hours prior to assay of test 2+ 2+ articles. Ca ion flux was assessed from fluorescence of a Fluo-based No Wash Ca dye. Antagonist data are generated from plates with LPA concentrations sufficient to generate 80% efficacy [EC ]. Percentage inhibition was calculated from a reduction of efficacy according to concentration of compounds of Formula I-VI. For dose responses the inhibition data was used to calculate compound IC .

TETRA The agonist assay was conducted on a FLIPR instrument where the test compound(s), vehicle controls, and reference agonist were added to the assay plate after a fluorescence baseline was established. The agonist assay was a total of 180 seconds and was used to assess each compound’s ability to activate each GPCR assayed. Upon completion of the agonist assay, the assay plate was removed from the TETRA FLIPR and incubated at 25°C for seven (7) minutes. After the incubation period, the TETRA assay plate was placed back in the FLIPR and the antagonist assay was initiated.

Antagonist Assay: Using EC potency values determined during the agonist assay, all pre-incubated sample compound wells were challenged with EC concentration of reference agonist after establishment of a fluorescence baseline. The antagonist assay was conducted using the same assay plate that was used for the TETRA agonist assay. The antagonist assay was conducted on a FLIPR instrument where 9 vehicle controls and EC concentration of reference agonist were added to appropriate wells. The antagonist assay was a total of 180 seconds and was used to assess each compound’s ability to inhibit each GPCR assayed.

Data Processing: All assay plate data were subjected to appropriate baseline corrections. After baseline corrections were applied, maximum fluorescence values were exported and data processed to calculate percentage activation (relative to Emax reference agonist and vehicle control values), percentage inhibition (relative to EC80 and vehicle control values), and additional statistical values (i.e. Z’, percentage variation between replicate data values) to assess the quality of each plate. Where assay plate data were rejected, additional experiments were conducted. All dose response curves were generated using GraphPad Prism. The curves were fit by utilizing “Sigmoidal Dose Response (Variable Slope)” equation where the bottom parameter was fixed to “0.” Where appropriate, the top parameter was fixed to “100” to better predict potency values when a full curve was not generated by the concentrations assayed.

Antagonist activity data for representative compounds prepared according to the synthetic methods disclosed herein are presented in Table 2.
