Definitions

  • the invention relates to 9H-pyrrolo-dipyridine derivatives, processes for preparing them, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use as radiopharmaceuticals in particular as imaging agents for the detection of Tau aggregates.
  • AD Alzheimer's disease
  • PSP progressive supranuclear palsy
  • AD initially causes impaired cognition, especially memory, but eventually AD leads to impairments in multiple domains and the need for patients to live in a nursing home.
  • AD causes death.
  • PSP initially causes symptoms that are often misdiagnosed for Parkinson's disease, affecting balance, gait and eye movement. The disease progresses rapidly, with patients falling, being wheelchair bound and requiring nursing home care. Ultimately, PSP causes death.
  • Symptomatic treatments for AD and PSP provide limited benefit and there are currently no disease-modifying treatments available.
  • the brain pathology observed in AD includes amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Neurofibrillary tangles are also observed in PSP.
  • the main protein component of neurofibrillary tangles is hyperphosphorylated, aggregated microtubule-associated protein tau (Tau) forming paired helical filaments (PHF).
  • Tau is a neuronal protein that is unfolded under physiological conditions, associated with microtubules, and which may play a role with their assembly and stabilization (Clavaguera et al. Brain Pathol. 2013 2013 23(3):342-9).
  • Six isoforms were described, three containing three microtubule binding regions (MTBR), three containing four MTBR; the longest form comprises 441 amino acids.
  • Tau undergoes post-translational modifications (hyper-phosphorylation, acetylation, nitrosylation, glycosylation, etc) and self-aggregates on its MTBR.
  • This aggregated post-translationally modified protein is the major component of paired helical filament (PHF) which is the building block of neurofibrillary tangles observed in a range of tauopathy diseases.
  • PHF paired helical filament
  • tauopathies have been described to contain Tau inclusions (Clavaguera et al. Brain Pathol. 2013 2013 23(3):342-9) and may be caused by Tau accumulation:
  • Alzheimer's disease Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/parkinsonism-dementia complex; Argyrophilic grain disease; Chronic traumatic encephalopathy; Corticobasal degeneration; Diffuse neurofibrillary tangles with calcification; Down syndrome; Familial British dementia; Familial Danish dementia; Frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 caused by MAPT mutations; Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (caused by C9ORF72 mutations); Gerstmann-St syndromesler-Scheinker disease; Guadeloupean parkinsonism; Myotonic dystrophy; Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation; Niemann-Pick disease, type C; Non-Guamanian motor neuron disease with neurofibrillary tangles; Pick disease; Post-encephalitic parkinsonism; Prion protein cerebral amyloid angiopathy; Progressive subcortical gliosis; Progressive supranuclear palsy; SLC9A6
  • An imaging agent that is selective for Tau aggregates compared to other aggregated pathological proteins would allow in-vivo visualization of Tau aggregates in patients therefore allowing a more accurate diagnosis and monitoring of treatment effects. Additionally it would better define the time course of the disease in each individual patient, and assess the efficacy of disease-modifying, tau-targeted treatments.
  • the present invention relates to 9H-pyrrolo-dipyridine derivatives, compositions, methods and use as imaging agents for the in vivo detection of Tau aggregates in the brain.
  • a further aspect of the present invention consists of novel agents that demonstrate high binding to Tau aggregates and have low non-specific binding and high selectivity compared to other aggregated proteins and other unrelated proteins.
  • Potential ligands for detecting Tau aggregates in the living brain must be brain penetrant and possess high affinity for Tau aggregates and specificity, especially compared to other aggregated proteins (beta-amyloid, ⁇ -synuclein, TDP-43, . . . ) and compared to other unrelated proteins.
  • successful neuroimaging radiotracers must have appropriate lipophilicity (log D 1-3), low non-specific brain tissue binding (Fu ⁇ 5%), low molecular weight ( ⁇ 450) and show rapid clearance from blood. (Zhang et al J Med Chem. 2013 56(11):4568-4579).
  • Tau PET ligands have been described for example in Chien et al. J Alzheimers Dis. 2013; 34(2):457-68 and Maruyama et al. Neuron. 2013 79(6):1094-108. However, it is reported that they may have insufficient sensitivity and specificity to detect changes in Tau load (Villemagne et al. Lancet Neurol. 2015 (1):114-124).
  • the object of the present application is to identify a Tau PET ligand that will improve the identification of potential patients with excess of Tau aggregates in the brain.
  • the present invention describes compounds that may be used for binding and imaging Tau aggregates, especially for diagnostic and monitoring imaging of Tau aggregates in neurodegenerative diseases such as Progressive supranuclear palsy, Alzheimer's patients, Pick's disease, chronic traumatic encephalopathy, corticobasal degeneration, Frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 caused by MAPT mutations, Frontotemporal lobar degeneration, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/parkinsonism-dementia complex, Down syndrome and related tauopathies as listed in the background section.
  • neurodegenerative diseases such as Progressive supranuclear palsy, Alzheimer's patients, Pick's disease, chronic traumatic encephalopathy, corticobasal degeneration, Frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 caused by MAPT mutations, Frontotemporal lobar degeneration, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/parkinsonism-dementia complex, Down syndrome and related tauopathies as listed in the background section.
  • Tricyclic carboline and carbazole compounds are described for example in U.S. Pat. No. 6,177,440 as inhibitors of the human non-pancreatic secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA 2 ) for the treatment of septic shock and in WO 2013/176698 and U.S. Pat. No. 8,491,869 as senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles binders for the imaging of 3-Amyloid deposits and Tau aggregates.
  • sPLA 2 human non-pancreatic secretory phospholipase A2
  • WO 2009/102498 describes compounds and methods of diagnosing Alzheimer's Disease or a predisposition thereto in a mammal, the method comprising administering to the mammal a diagnostically effective amount of a radiolabeled compound, wherein the compound is selected from the group consisting of radiolabeled flavones, coumarins, carbazoles, quinolinones, chromenones, imidazoles and triazoles derivatives, allowing the compound to distribute into the brain tissue, and imaging the brain tissue, wherein an increase in binding of the compound to the brain tissue compared to a normal control level of binding indicates that the mammal is suffering from or is at risk of developing Alzheimer's Disease.
