COMPOUNDS AS MODULATORS OF BIS-PHOSPHOGLYCERATE MUTASE FOR THE

TREATMENT OF SICKLE CELL DISEASE

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application daims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) of United States Provisional Application No. 63/077,973, fïled September 14, 2020, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

FIELD

[0002] The présent disclosure relates generally to compounds, compositions, and method for treating sickle cell disease.

BACKGROUND

[0003] Bis-phosphoglycerate mutase (BPGM) is an enzyme in the glucose metabolism pathway that régulâtes the levels of 2,3-bis-phosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG) inside the red blood cell (RBC). 2,3-BPG is a known allosteric modulator of hemoglobin that stabilizes the de-oxy or “T-State” of hemoglobin that has a tendency to polymerize, resulting in the sickle cell morphology. There is currently a large unmet medical need for safe and effective oral thérapies for the treatment of sickle cell disease. BPGM modulators that lower 2,3-BPG levels offer a novel mechanism of action from existing thérapies and may significantly reduce sickling in sickle cell disease patients.

[0004] Accordingly, in one aspect, provided herein are compounds which are modulators of BPGM for use in treating sickle cell disease.

In some embodiments, compound I-A can be derivatized to form compound I-B, which can subsequently be coupled (e.g. under Suzuki coupling conditions) with an appropriate dihalide, compound I-C (wherein X is Cl or Br), to form compound I-D. Compound I-F can be achieved from compound I-D with an appropriate boronic acid ester, compound I-E, and métal catalyst. R^x can subsequently be derivatized to form the desired Z-Y-X group according to methods known in the art. In some embodiments, ring A, B, and C can be connected

in any order (e.g., ring A and ring B, followed by ring C as shown in Scheme IA; or ring B and ring C, followed by ring A) according to similar methods as described herein.

Compound Π-E can be achieved according to methods such as those described in Example S6. Compound Π-B may also be combined with compound Π-E in the presence of an appropriate boronic ester (such as 4,4,5,5-tetramethyI-2-(4,4,5,510 tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1,3,2-dioxaborolane) and a palladium catalyst.

[0132] The ointments, pastes, creams and gels may contain, in addition to an active compound of this disclosure, excipients, such as animal and vegetable fats, oils, waxes, paraffins, starch, tragacanth, cellulose dérivatives, polyethylene glycols, silicones, bentonites, silicic acid, talc and zinc oxide or mixtures thereof.

[0133] Powders and sprays can contain, in addition to a compound of this disclosure, excipients such as lactose, talc, silicic acid, aluminum hydroxide, calcium silicates, and polyamide powder or mixtures of these substances. Sprays can additionally contain customaiy propellants, such as chlorofluorohydrocarbons and volatile unsubstituted hydrocarbons, such as butane and propane.

[0134] Pharmaceutical compositions of this disclosure suitable for parentéral administration comprise one or more compounds of the disclosure in combination with one or more pharmaceutically-acceptable stérile isotonie aqueous or nonaqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions or émulsions or stérile powders which may be reconstituted into stérile injectable solutions or dispersions just prior to use, which may contain sugars, alcohols, antioxidants, buffers, bacteriostats, solutés which render the formulation isotonie with the blood of the intended récipient or suspending or thickening agents.

[0135] Examples of suitable aqueous and nonaqueous carriers, which may be employed in the pharmaceutical compositions of the disclosure include water, éthanol, polyols (such as glycerol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol and the like) and suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils, such as olive oil and injectable organic esters, such as ethyl oleate. Proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of coating materials, such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions and by the use of surfactants.

[0136] These compositions may also contain adjuvants such as preservatives, wetting agents, emulsifying agents and dispersing agents. Prévention of the action of microorganisms upon the subject compounds may be ensured by the inclusion of various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, paraben, chlorobutanol, phenyl sorbic acid and the like. It may also be désirable to include isotonie agents, such as sugars, sodium chloride and the like into the compositions. In addition, prolonged absorption of the injectable pharmaceutical form may be brought about by the inclusion of agents which delay absorption such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin.

[0137] In some cases, in order to prolong the effect of a drug, it is désirable to slow the absorption of the drug from subeutaneous or intramuscular injection. This may be accomplished by the use of a liquid suspension of ciystalline or amorphous material having poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the drug then dépends upon its rate of dissolution, which in tum, may dépend upon crystal size and crystalline form. Altematively, delayed absorption of a parenterally-administered drug form is accomplished by dissolving or suspending the drug in an oil vehicle.

[0138] Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of the subject compounds in biodégradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. Depending on the ratio of drug to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer employed, the rate of drug release can be controlled. Examples of other biodégradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot injectable formulations are also prepared by entrapping the drug in liposomes or microemulsions, which are compatible with body tissue.

[0239] Procedures

[0240] To the assay plate was added Enzyme Solution (20 uL) to columns 2-22 and 24 of the assay plate. To columns 1 and 23 was added GAPDH Solution (20 uL). A separate compound plate was prepared at the desired concentrations and ail wells were normalized with 5% DMSO. The compound plate was incubated for 30 minutes at RT. Next, the substrate solution (20 pL) was dispensed to ail reaction wells and the plate was incubated for 60 minutes at RT. Koningic acid (1 pL) was added and the plate was incubated for 10 minutes at RT. During this time period, the NADH fluorescence was read at ex: 360 / em: 460. Next, Resazurin Solution (10 pL) was added to ail reaction wells and the plate was incubated for 30 minutes at RT. The resorufm fluorescence was then read at ex:544/em:590.

[0245] Procedures (0246] A 3-PG enzyme mix solution (final enzyme concentration 62.5 nM, 3-PG concentration at 50 pM, 14.5 uL) was added to onto a 384-well clear plate. Solutions of the test compounds were then added to the plate and the DMSO content was normalized across the plate. The plate was incubated at RT for 15 min. Next, the substrate 2,3-BPG (5 pL) was added to ail the wells, and the plate was sealed and incubated for 24 hr at RT. After incubation, BIOMOL green dye (40 pL) was added to ail the wells, the plate was shaken to mix, and the plate was incubated at RT for 20-30 min. Absorbance measurements were recorded at 620 nm.

[0250] Materials

[0251] The following materials were used in this assay: DMSO; Hemox buffer (30 mM TES, 135 mM NaCl, 5mM KC1, pH 7.4); Inosine (100 mM in hemox buffer); Glucose (1 M in water); human red blood cells; LC/MS Optima grade methanol; LC/MS Optima grade water; and Incubation buffer (30 mM TES, 135 mM NaCl, 5mM KC1, 50 mM inosine, 20 mM glucose pH 7.4).

[0252] Procedures

[0253] Test compounds were loaded onto a 96-well plate (final concentration of DMSO was 1%). 10 mL whole blood was resuspended with an équivalent amount of 2X incubation buffer to make 25% hct & 50% plasma solution. The final solution contains 10 mM glucose and 25 mM inosine. The blood suspension (100 uL) was added to the wells of the plate. The plate was covered with an adhesive foil cover and plastic lid, and incubated at 37 °C for 24 h.
