- STING Stimulator of Interferon Genes
- This invention also relates to a method of using such compounds in the treatment of abnormal cell growth in mammals, especially humans, and to pharmaceutical compositions as anticancer agents.
- PRRs pattern recognition receptors
- CDNs cyclic dinucleotides
- the adaptor protein STING also know as TMEM 173, has been identified as a central signalling molecule in the innate immune sensing pathway in response to cytosolic nucleic acids. Activation of STING results in up-regulation of IRF3 and NF ⁇ B pathways leading to induction of INF- ⁇ and other cytokines. STING is critical for responses to cytosolic DNA from pathogens or of host origin, and in response to CDNs, sometime referred to second messengers. G. N. Barber, “Sting: infection, inflammation and cancer,” Nat. Rev. Immun., 2015, 15, pp 760.
- CDNs were first identified as bacterial messengers responsible for controlling numerous responses in prokaryotic cells.
- Bacterial CDNs such as c-di-GMP are symmetrical molecules characterized by two 3′,5′ phosphodiester linkages. Direct activation of STING by bacterial CDNs has recently been confirmed through X-ray crystallography. Bacterial CDNs have consequently attracted interest as potential vaccine adjuvants.

Abstract
Compounds of the general formula (I):or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, processes for the preparation of these compounds, compositions containing these compounds, and the uses of these compounds.
Description
- This invention relates to novel cyclopentane-based activators of STING (Stimulator of Interferon Genes) useful in the treatment of abnormal cell growth, such as cancer, in mammals. This invention also relates to a method of using such compounds in the treatment of abnormal cell growth in mammals, especially humans, and to pharmaceutical compositions as anticancer agents.
- The innate immune system is the first line of defense which is initiated by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) upon detection of ligands from pathogens as well as damage associated molecular patterns. A growing number of these receptors have been identified, which now includes sensors of double stranded DNA and unique nucleic acids called cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs). Activation of PRRs leads to up regulation of genes involved in the inflammatory response, including type 1 interferons (IFNs), proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines which suppress pathogen replication and facilitate adaptive immunity.
- The adaptor protein STING, also know as TMEM 173, has been identified as a central signalling molecule in the innate immune sensing pathway in response to cytosolic nucleic acids. Activation of STING results in up-regulation of IRF3 and NFκB pathways leading to induction of INF-β and other cytokines. STING is critical for responses to cytosolic DNA from pathogens or of host origin, and in response to CDNs, sometime referred to second messengers. G. N. Barber, “Sting: infection, inflammation and cancer,” Nat. Rev. Immun., 2015, 15, pp 760.
- CDNs were first identified as bacterial messengers responsible for controlling numerous responses in prokaryotic cells. Bacterial CDNs, such as c-di-GMP are symmetrical molecules characterized by two 3′,5′ phosphodiester linkages. Direct activation of STING by bacterial CDNs has recently been confirmed through X-ray crystallography. Bacterial CDNs have consequently attracted interest as potential vaccine adjuvants.
- More recently, the response to cytosolic DNA has been shown to involve generation of endogenous CDNs by an enzyme called cyclic guanine adenine synthase (cGAS), producing a novel mammalian CDN signalling molecule identified as cyclic guanine adenine monophosphate (cGAMP), which binds to and activates STING. Interaction of cGAMP with STING has also been demonstrated by X-ray crystallography. Unlike bacterial CDNs, cGAMP is an unsymmetrical molecule characterised by its mixed 2′,5′ and 3′,5′ phosphodiester linkages. Like bacterial CDNs, cGAMP activates STING leading to induction of type 1 INFs:
- The role of type 1 INFs in response to invading pathogens is well established. Recombinant IFNα was the first approved biological therapeutic and has become an important therapy in viral infections and in cancer. INFs are also know to be potent modulators of the immune response, acting on cells of the immune system.
- Given its role in regulating various biological processes, STING is an attractive target for modulation with small molecules. Nevertheless, to date, few effective STING activators have been developed or have entered the clinic.
- Administration of a small molecule compound which could stimulate the innate immune response, including the activation of type 1 INF and other cytokines, could become an important strategy for the treatment and prevention of human diseases including viral infections and cancer. This type of immunomodulatory strategy has the potential to identify compounds which may be useful not only in infectious diseases but also cancer, allergic diseases, and as vaccine adjuvants.
- Certain compounds of the invention have been shown to bind to STING and to induce type 1 INF and other cytokines and co-stimulatory factors on incubation with human dendritic cells (DCs) and peripheral blood mononucleocytes (PBMCs). Compounds which induce human INFs may be useful in the treatment of various disorders, for example the treatment of allergic diseases and other inflammatory conditions. Certain compounds of the invention may bind to STING but act as antagonists and these could be useful in the treatment of various autoimmune diseases.
- It is envisioned that targeting STING with activating or inhibiting agents may be a promising approach for treating diseases and conditions in which modulation of the type1 INF pathway is beneficial, including inflammatory diseases, allergic and autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, cancer and as vaccine adjuvants.

For a review on suitable salts, see “Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection, and Use” by Stahl and Wermuth (Wiley-VCH, Weinheim, Germany, 2002), the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- A pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the inventive compounds can be readily prepared by mixing together solutions of the compound and the desired acid or base, as appropriate. The salt may precipitate from solution and be collected by filtration or may be recovered by evaporation of the solvent. The degree of ionization in the salt may vary from completely ionized to almost non-ionized.
- The compounds of the invention may exist in both unsolvated and solvated forms. The term ‘solvate’ is used herein to describe a molecular complex comprising the compound of the invention and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable solvent molecules, for example, ethanol. The term ‘hydrate’ is employed when the solvent is water. Pharmaceutically acceptable solvates in accordance with the invention include hydrates and solvates wherein the solvent of crystallization may be isotopically substituted, e.g. D2O, d6-acetone, d6-DMSO.
- Also included within the scope of the invention are complexes such as clathrates, drug-host inclusion complexes wherein, in contrast to the aforementioned solvates, the drug and host are present in stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amounts. Also included are complexes of the drug containing two or more organic and/or inorganic components which may be in stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amounts. The resulting complexes may be ionized, partially ionized, or non-ionized. For a review of such complexes, see J Pharm Sci, 64 (8), 1269-1288 by Haleblian (August 1975), the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- Also within the scope of the invention are polymorphs, prodrugs, and isomers (including optical, geometric and tautomeric isomers) of the inventive compounds
- Derivatives of compounds of the invention which may have little or no pharmacological activity themselves but can, when administered to a patient, be converted into the inventive compounds, for example, by hydrolytic cleavage. Such derivatives are referred to as ‘prodrugs’. Further information on the use of prodrugs may be found in ‘Pro-drugs as Novel Delivery Systems, Vol. 14, ACS Symposium Series (T Higuchi and W Stella) and ‘Bioreversible Carriers in Drug Design’, Pergamon Press, 1987 (ed. E B Roche, American Pharmaceutical Association), the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.
- Prodrugs in accordance with the invention can, for example, be produced by replacing appropriate functionalities present in the inventive compounds with certain moieties known to those skilled in the art as ‘pro-moieties’ as described, for example, in “Design of Prodrugs” by H Bundgaard (Elsevier, 1985), the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- Some examples of prodrugs in accordance with the invention include:
-
- (i) where the compound contains a carboxylic acid functionality —(COOH), an ester thereof, for example, replacement of the hydrogen with (C1-C8)alkyl;
- (ii) where the compound contains an alcohol functionality (—OH), an ether thereof, for example, replacement of the hydrogen with (C1-C5)alkanoyloxymethyl; and
- (iii) where the compound contains a primary or secondary amino functionality (—NH2 or —NHR where R≠H), an amide thereof, for example, replacement of one or both hydrogens with (C1-C10)alkanoyl.
- Further examples of replacement groups in accordance with the foregoing examples and examples of other prodrug types may be found in the aforementioned references.
- Finally, certain inventive compounds may themselves act as prodrugs of other of the inventive compounds.
- Compounds of the invention containing one or more asymmetric carbon and/or phosphorous atoms can exist as two or more stereoisomers. Where the compounds according to this invention have at least one chiral center, they may accordingly exist as enantiomers. Where the compounds possess two or more chiral centers, they may additionally exist as diastereomers. Similarly, where a compound of the invention contains a cyclopropyl group or other cyclic group where chirality exists, and alkenyl or alkenylene group, geometric cis/trans (or Z/E) isomers are possible. Where the compound contains, for example, a keto or oxime group or an aromatic moiety, tautomeric isomerism (‘tautomerism’) can occur. A single compound may exhibit more than one type of isomerism.
- Included within the scope of the invention are all stereoisomers, geometric isomers and tautomeric forms of the inventive compounds, including compounds exhibiting more than one type of isomerism, and mixtures of one or more thereof. Also included are acid addition or base salts wherein the counterion is optically active, for example, D-lactate or L-lysine, or racemic, for example, DL-tartrate or DL-arginine.
- Cis/trans isomers may be separated by conventional techniques well known to those skilled in the art, for example, chromatography and fractional crystallization.
- Conventional techniques for the preparation/isolation of individual enantiomers include chiral synthesis from a suitable optically pure precursor or resolution of the racemate (or the racemate of a salt or derivative) using, for example, chiral high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) or supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC).
- Alternatively, the racemate (or a racemic precursor) may be reacted with a suitable optically active compound, for example, an alcohol, or, in the case where the compound contains an acidic or basic moiety, an acid or base such as tartaric acid or 1-phenylethylamine. The resulting diastereomeric mixture may be separated by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization and one or both of the diastereoisomers converted to the corresponding pure enantiomer(s) by means well known to one skilled in the art.
- Stereoisomeric conglomerates may be separated by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art; see, for example, “Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds” by E L Eliel (Wiley, New York, 1994), the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- The invention also includes isotopically-labeled compounds of the invention, wherein one or more atoms is replaced by an atom having the same atomic number, but an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature. Examples of isotopes suitable for inclusion in the compounds of the invention include isotopes of hydrogen, such as 2H and 3H, carbon, such as 11C, 13C and 14C, chlorine, such as 36C1, fluorine, such as 18F, iodine, such as 123I and 125I, nitrogen, such as 13N and 15N, oxygen, such as 15O, 17O and 18O, phosphorus, such as 32P, and sulfur, such as 35S. Certain isotopically-labeled compounds of the invention, for example, those incorporating a radioactive isotope, are useful in drug and/or substrate tissue distribution studies. The radioactive isotopes tritium, 3H, and carbon-14, 14C, are particularly useful for this purpose in view of their ease of incorporation and ready means of detection. Substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium, 2H, may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example, increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements, and hence may be preferred in some circumstances. Substitution with positron emitting isotopes, such as 11C, 18F, 15O and 13N, can be useful in Positron Emission Topography (PET) studies for examining substrate receptor occupancy.
- Isotopically-labeled compounds of the invention can generally be prepared by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art or by processes analogous to those described herein, using an appropriate isotopically-labeled reagent in place of the non-labeled reagent otherwise employed.
- Pharmaceutically acceptable solvates in accordance with the invention include those wherein the solvent of crystallization may be isotopically substituted, e.g. D2O, d6-acetone, d6-DMSO.
- Compounds of the invention intended for pharmaceutical use may be administered as crystalline or amorphous products, or mixtures thereof. They may be obtained, for example, as solid plugs, powders, or films by methods such as precipitation, crystallization, freeze drying, spray drying, or evaporative drying. Microwave or radio frequency drying may be used for this purpose.
- The compounds can be administered alone or in combination with one or more other compounds of the invention. Generally, they will be administered as a formulation in association with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The term “excipient” is used herein to describe any ingredient other than the compound(s) of the invention. The choice of excipient will to a large extent depend on factors such as the particular mode of administration, the effect of the excipient on solubility and stability, and the nature of the dosage form.
- The compositions described herein can be administered to a host, either alone or in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, in an amount sufficient to induce, modify, or stimulate an appropriate immune response. The immune response can comprise, without limitation, specific immune response, non-specific immune response, both specific and non-specific response, innate response, primary immune response, adaptive immunity, secondary immune response, memory immune response, immune cell activation, immune cell proliferation, immune cell differentiation, and cytokine expression. In certain embodiments, the compositions are administered in conjunction with one or more additional compositions including vaccines intended to stimulate an immune response to one or more predetermined antigens; adjuvants; CTLA-4 and PD-1 pathway antagonists, lipids, liposomes, chemotherapeutic agents, immunomodulatory cell lines, etc.
- In some aspects of the invention, the methods described herein further include a step of treating a subject with an additional form of therapy. In some aspects, the additional form of therapy is an additional anti-cancer therapy including, but not limited to, chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, hormone therapy, and/or additional immunotherapy.
- The disclosed STING modulatory compounds may be administered as an initial treatment, or for treatment of cancers that are unresponsive to conventional therapies. In addition, the disclosed STING modulatory compounds may be used in combination with other therapies (e.g., surgical excision, radiation, additional anti-cancer drugs etc.) to thereby elicit additive or potentiated therapeutic effects and/or reduce cytotoxicity of some anti-cancer agents. The STING modulatory compounds of the invention may be co-administered or co-formulated with additional agents, or formulated for consecutive administration with additional agents in any order.
- The STING modulatory compounds the invention may be used in combination with other therapeutic agents including, but not limited to, therapeutic antibodies, ADCs, immunomodulating agents, cytotoxic agents, and cytostatic agents. A cytotoxic effect refers to the depletion, elimination and/or the killing of a target cells (i.e., tumor cells). A cytotoxic agent refers to an agent that has a cytotoxic and/or cytostatic effect on a cell. A cytostatic effect refers to the inhibition of cell proliferation. A cytostatic agent refers to an agent that has a cytostatic effect on a cell, thereby inhibiting the growth and/or expansion of a specific subset of cells (i.e., tumor cells). An immunomodulating agent refers to an agent that stimulates the immune response though the production of cytokines and/or antibodies and/or modulating T cell function thereby inhibiting or reducing the growth of a subset of cells (i.e., tumor cells) either directly or indirectly by allowing another agent to be more efficacious.
- For combination therapies, the STING modulatory compounds are administered within any time frame suitable for performance of the intended therapy. Thus, the single agents may be administered substantially simultaneously (i.e., as a single formulation or within minutes or hours) or consecutively in any order. For example, single agent treatments may be administered within about 1 year of each other, such as within about 10, 8, 6, 4, or 2 months, or within 4, 3, 2 or 1 week(s), or within about 5, 4, 3, 2 or 1 day(s).
- The disclosed combination therapies may elicit a synergistic therapeutic effect, i.e., an effect greater than the sum of their individual effects or therapeutic outcomes. For example, a synergistic therapeutic effect may be an effect of at least about two-fold greater than the therapeutic effect elicited by a single agent, or the sum of the therapeutic effects elicited by the single agents of a given combination, or at least about five-fold greater, or at least about ten-fold greater, or at least about twenty-fold greater, or at least about fifty-fold greater, or at least about one hundred-fold greater. A synergistic therapeutic effect may also be observed as an increase in therapeutic effect of at least 10% compared to the therapeutic effect elicited by a single agent, or the sum of the therapeutic effects elicited by the single agents of a given combination, or at least 20%, or at least 30%, or at least 40%, or at least 50%, or at least 60%, or at least 70%, or at least 80%, or at least 90%, or at least 100%, or more. A synergistic effect is also an effect that permits reduced dosing of therapeutic agents when they are used in combination.
- The compositions may be administered before, after, and/or together with an additional therapeutic or prophylactic composition or modality. These include, without limitation, B7 costimulatory molecule, interleukin-2, interferon-7, GM-CSF, CTLA-4 antagonists, OX-40/OX-40 ligand, CD40/CD40 ligand, sargramostim, levamisol, vaccinia virus, Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG), liposomes, alum, Freund's complete or incomplete adjuvant, detoxified endotoxins, mineral oils, surface active substances such as lipolecithin, pluronic polyols, polyanions, peptides, and oil or hydrocarbon emulsions. Carriers for inducing a T cell immune response which preferentially stimulate a cytolytic T cell response versus an antibody response are preferred, although those that stimulate both types of response can be used as well. In cases where the agent is a polypeptide, the polypeptide itself or a polynucleotide encoding the polypeptide can be administered. The carrier can be a cell, such as an antigen presenting cell (APC) or a dendritic cell. Antigen presenting cells include such cell types as macrophages, dendritic cells and Bcells. Other professional antigen-presenting cells include monocytes, marginal zone Kupffer cells, microglia, Langerhans' cells, interdigitating dendritic cells, follicular dendritic cells, and T cells. Facultative antigen-presenting cells can also be used. Examples of facultative antigen presenting cells include astrocytes, follicular cells, endothelium and fibroblasts. The carrier can be a bacterial cell that is transformed to express the polypeptide or to deliver a polynucleotide which is subsequently expressed in cells of the vaccinated individual. Adjuvants, such as aluminium hydroxide or aluminum phosphate, can be added to increase the ability of the vaccine to trigger, enhance, or prolong an immune response. Additional materials, such as cytokines, chemokines, and bacterial nucleic acid sequences, like CpG, a toll-like receptor (TLR) 9 agonist as well as additional agonists for TLR 2, TLR 4, TLR 5, TLR 7, TLR 8, TLR9, including lipoprotein, LPS, monophosphoryl lipid A, lipoteichoic acid, imiquimod, resiquimod, and in addition retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-1) agonists such as poly I:C, used separately or in combination with the described compositions are also potential adjuvants. Other representative examples of adjuvants include the synthetic adjuvant QS-21 comprising a homogeneous saponin purified from the bark of Quillaja saponaria and Colynebacterium parvum (McCune et al., Cancer, 1979; 43:1619). It will be understood that the adjuvant is subject to optimization. In other words, the skilled artisan can engage in routine experimentation to determine the best adjuvant to use.
- Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for the delivery of compounds of the invention and methods for their preparation will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art. Such compositions and methods for their preparation can be found, for example, in ‘Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences’, 19th Edition (Mack Publishing Company, 1995), the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- The compounds of the invention may be administered directly into the blood stream, into muscle, or into an internal organ. Suitable means for parenteral administration include intravenous, intraarterial, intraperitoneal, intrathecal, intraventricular, intraurethral, intrasternal, intracranial, intramuscular, subcutaneous and intratumoral. Suitable devices for parenteral administration include needle (including micro needle) injectors, needle-free injectors and infusion techniques.
- Parenteral formulations are typically aqueous solutions which may contain excipients such as salts, carbohydrates and buffering agents (preferably to a pH of from 3 to 9), but, for some applications, they may be more suitably formulated as a sterile non-aqueous solution or as a dried form to be used in conjunction with a suitable vehicle such as sterile, pyrogen-free water.
- The preparation of parenteral formulations under sterile conditions, for example, by lyophilization, may readily be accomplished using standard pharmaceutical techniques well known to those skilled in the art.
- The solubility of compounds of the invention used in the preparation of parenteral solutions may be increased by the use of appropriate formulation techniques, such as the incorporation of solubility-enhancing agents. Formulations for parenteral administration may be formulated to be immediate and/or modified release. Modified release formulations include delayed-, sustained-, pulsed-, controlled-, targeted and programmed release. Thus compounds of the invention may be formulated as a solid, semi-solid, or thixotropic liquid for administration as an implanted depot providing modified release of the active compound. Examples of such formulations include drug-coated stents and PLGA microspheres.
- Nanoparticles also represent drug delivery systems suitable for most administration routes. Over the years, a variety of natural and synthetic polymers have been explored for the preparation of nanoparticles, of which Poly(lactic acid) (PLA), Poly(glycolic acid) (PGA), and their copolymers (PLGA) have been extensively investigated because of their biocompatibility and biodegradability. Nanoparticles and other nanocarriers act as potential carries for several classes of drugs such as anticancer agents, antihypertensive agents, immunomodulators, and hormones; and macromolecules such as nucleic acids, proteins, peptides, and antibodies. See, e.g., Crit. Rev. Ther. Drug Carrier Syst. 21:387-422, 2004; Nanomedicine: Nanotechnology, Biology and Medicine 1:22-30, 2005.
- The compositions of the present invention may comprise, or be administered together with, one or more additional pharmaceutically active components such as adjuvants, lipids, interbilayer crosslinked multilamellar vesicles, biodegradeable poly(D, L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) [PLGA]-based or poly anhydride-based nanoparticles or microparticles, and nanoporous particle-supported lipid bilayers such as liposomes, CTLA-4 and PD-1 pathway Antagonists, PD-1 pathway blocking agents, inactivated bacteria which induce innate immunity (e.g., inactivated or attenuated Listeria monocytogenes), compositions which mediate innate immune activation via Toll-like Receptors (TLRs), (NOD)-like receptors (NLRs), Retinoic acid inducible gene-based (RIG)-I-like receptors (RLRs), C-type lectin receptors (CLRs), pathogenassociated molecular patterns (“PAMPs”), chemotherapeutic agents, and the like.
- The compounds and compositions of the present invention may be administered as a component of an antibody-drug conjugate or other targeted delivery modality.
- Topical Administration
- Compounds of the invention may be combined with soluble macromolecular entities, such as cyclodextrin and suitable derivatives thereof or polyethylene glycol-containing polymers, in order to improve their solubility, dissolution rate, taste-masking, bioavailability and/or stability for use in any of the aforementioned modes of administration.
- Drug-cyclodextrin complexes, for example, are found to be generally useful for most dosage forms and administration routes. Both inclusion and non-inclusion complexes may be used. As an alternative to direct complexation with the drug, the cyclodextrin may be used as an auxiliary additive, i.e. as a carrier, diluent, or solubilizer. Most commonly used for these purposes are alpha-, beta- and gamma-cyclodextrins, examples of which may be found in PCT Publication Nos. WO 91/11172, WO 94/02518 and WO 98/55148, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.
- Dosage: The amount of the active compound administered will be dependent on the subject being treated, the severity of the disorder or condition, the rate of administration, the disposition of the compound and the discretion of the prescribing physician. One possible dosage is in the range of about 0.001 to about 100 mg per kg body weight, administered daily, every other day, every third day, every fourth day, every fifth day, every sixth day, weekly, every other week, monthly, or on other dosing schedules. In some instances, dosage levels below the lower limit of the aforesaid range may be more than adequate, while in other cases still larger doses may be used without causing any harmful side effect, with such larger doses typically divided into several smaller doses for administration throughout the day.
- Kit-of-Parts: Inasmuch as it may desirable to administer a combination of active compounds, for example, for the purpose of treating a particular disease or condition, it is within the scope of the present invention that two or more pharmaceutical compositions, at least one of which contains a compound in accordance with the invention, may conveniently be combined in the form of a kit suitable for coadministration of the compositions. Thus the kit of the invention includes two or more separate pharmaceutical compositions, at least one of which contains a compound of the invention, and means for separately retaining said compositions, such as a container, divided bottle, or divided foil packet. An example of such a kit is the familiar blister pack used for the packaging of tablets, capsules and the like.
- The kit of the invention is particularly suitable for administering different dosage forms, for example, oral and parenteral, for administering the separate compositions at different dosage intervals, or for titrating the separate compositions against one another. To assist compliance, the kit typically includes directions for administration and may be provided with a memory aid.
- Experiments were generally carried out under inert atmosphere (nitrogen or argon), particularly in cases where oxygen- or moisture-sensitive reagents or intermediates were employed. Commercial solvents and reagents were generally used without further purification and dried over molecular sieves (generally Sure-Seal™ products from the Aldrich Chemical Company, Milwaukee, Wisconsin). Mass spectrometry data is reported from either liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI), electrospray ionization (ESI) or liquid chromatography-Time of Flight (LC-TOF) methods. Chemical shifts for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data are expressed in parts per million (ppm) referenced to residual peaks from the deuterated solvents employed.
- For syntheses referencing procedures in other Examples or Methods, reaction Protocol (length of reaction and temperature) may vary. In general, reactions were followed by thin layer chromatography, LC-MS or HPLC, and subjected to work-up when appropriate. Purifications may vary between experiments: in general, solvents and the solvent ratios used for eluents/gradients were chosen to provide appropriate retention times. Unless otherwise specified, reverse phase HPLC fractions were concentrated via lyophilization/freeze-drying. Intermediate and final compounds were stored at (0° C.) or room temperature in closed vials or flasks under nitrogen. Compound names were generated with Chemdraw or ACD Labs software.

- In general, the synthesis of the cyclopentane-based STING activators can be analogized to the routes used to make the appropriate macrocycles found in the synthesis of cyclic dinuclueotides (Gaffney B. L., et. al.; Organic Letters 2010 12(14) 3269-3271).
- As exemplified in Scheme 1, the chiral allylic acetate 1a can be purchased or synthesized (Deardorff D., et. al.; Tetrahedron Letters 1986 27(11) 1255-1256). An allylic alkylation can be performed with a nitrogen contain heterocycle or nucleobase to form compounds such as 1b (Trost, B., et. al.; Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 1996, 35 1569-1572). These reactions are typically run using a palladium catalyst, a phosphine ligand and basic condition. Other metal catalyst and ligand combination can also be employed to achieve the same transformation. Typically, protection of the allylic alcohol, 1b, with a dimethoxytrityl (DMT) group is achieved using dimethoxytrityl chloride (DMTCl) and a base to give compounds such as 1c. The double bond of 1c is typically dihydroxylated with catalytic osmium tetroxide and N-methylpiperidine N-oxide to give compounds such as 1d. Other dihydroxylating reagents such as permanganate or ruthenium tetroxide may be used to do the same transformation. Typically, mono-protection of the compounds such as 1d can be achieved using tetrabutyldimethylsilyl choride (TBSCI) with tetrazole or tetrabutyldimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (TBSOTf) and base to give compounds such as 1e. Phosphoramidites such as compound if are typically made from compounds such as 1e when treated with 3-((chloro(diisopropylamino)phosphanyl)oxy)propanenitrile and base. H-phosphonates and thio-H-phosphonates such as compound 1g are generally made from the appropriately protected nucleoside and a mixed anhydride of phosphonic acid followed by sulfurization if necessary. The protecting group is removed to reveal the primary alcohol 1g. Coupling of compounds such as 1g and if generally occur after phosphoramidites such as If are treated with acidic activators. The resulting coupled material is then sulfurized with sulfurizing agents such as DDTT, 3H-benzodithiol-3-one or similar reagent to produce thiophosphonates such as 1h. Otherwise the coupled material can be oxidized with reagents such as t-butyl peroxide or similar oxidants to produce phosphates such as 1h. Compounds such as 1h can be treated with mild acid such as dichloroacetic acid to reveal compounds such as 1i. H-phosphonate compounds such as 1i can be activated with reagents such as DMOCP to affect macrocyclization which then can be sulfurized by reagents such as 3H-benzodithiol-3-one to generate cyclic thiophosphonates such as 1j or oxidized with reagents such as t-butylperoxide to generate cyclic phosphates such as 1j. After the appropriate deprotection conditions, cyclic dithiophosphonates, diphosphates or mixed thiophosphonate-phosphate compounds such as 1k can be generated. Compounds at every step may be purified by standard techniques such as column chromatography, crystallization, reverse phase HPLC or SFC. If necessary, separation of the diastereomers of 1k may be carried out under standard methods known in the art such as chiral SFC or HPLC to afford single diastereomers. Note that “A” denotes carbon (also bound to hydrogen or a substituent) or nitrogen.

- To an oven dried round bottom flask (flask A), equipped with a magnetic stirbar and purged with N2, was added A-1 (8330 mg, 34.8 mmol) and DMF (50 mL). To the solution was added NaH (60 wt % dispersion in mineral oil, 1530 mg, 38.3 mmol) under N2. To a second round bottom flask (flask B), equipped with a magnetic stirbar and purged with N2, was added A-2 (4950 mg, 34.8 mmol), Pd(PPh3)4 (2490 mg, 2.16 mmol), PPhs(913 mg, 3.48 mmol), and THF (50 mL). After 30 min, the solution in flask A was transferred to flask B. Flask B was then placed in an oil bath and heated at 50° C. under N2 for 12 hours. The reaction mixture was quenched with H2O (100 mL) and transferred to a separatory funnel with EtOAc. The phases were separated and the aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (100 mL×2) and DCM/MeOH (5:1, 100 mL x 5). The combined organic extracts were concentrated under vacuum. The crude residue thus obtained was purified via flash column chromatography (240 g SiO2, Isco, 9% MeOH/DCM to afford A-3 (19.7 g, 88%) as a yellow solid. LCMS [M+H]=322 observed; 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm=11.18 (s, 1H), 8.79-8.73 (m, 1H), 8.45-8.38 (m, 1H), 8.05 (br d, J=7.5 Hz, 2H), 7.73-7.51 (m, 4H), 6.30-6.20 (m, 1H), 6.07 (br d, J=5.4 Hz, 1H), 5.61 (br dd, J=3.9, 5.2 Hz, 1H), 5.38 (d, J=6.2 Hz, 1H), 4.81-4.72 (m, 1H), 3.02-2.91 (m, 1H), 1.79 (td, J=4.5, 13.8 Hz, 1H).
- To a round bottom flask, equipped with a magnetic stirbar, was added A-3 (19.7 g, 61.3 mmol) and anhydrous pyridine (50 mL). The solution was concentrated to dryness under vacuum and further dried under high vacuum for 1h. The flask was purged with N2 followed by the addition of anhydrous pyridine (150 mL) and DMTCl (23.9 g, 70.5 mmol). The reaction was stirred at 9° C. under N2 for 12 hours. The reaction was quenched with H2O and transferred to a separatory funnel with EtOAc. The phases were separated and the aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (200 mL×2).

- Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) STING agonist binding studies were carried out using a Biacore T200 instrument (GE Healthcare) at 4° C. in a 150 mM KCl, 25 mM Hepes (pH 7.5), 1 mM TCEP, 2.5 mM MgCl2, 5% (v/v) glycerol, 0.005% (v/v) P20, 1% (v/v) DMSO running buffer. The recombinant protein immobilized on the streptavidin chip was either human WT or H232R STING. A truncated construct of STING was used in all studies. The STING constructs were comprised of residues 155-341 with both N- and C-terminal truncations; the N-terminal transmembrane domains were removed (1-154), as well as the C-terminal tail (342-379). A highly specific N-terminal biotinylation was achieved enzymatically with the E. coli biotin ligase (BirA) and inclusion of the high-affinity biotinylation peptide AviTag™. A Carboxymethylated dextran pre-immobilized with streptavidin (series S Streptavidin CM5 Sensor Chip) was used to capture the biotinylated STING protein. Test compound injections were made at a flow rate of 100 μl per minute with a 60 second association time and variable dissociation time. A three-fold dilution series from a 10 μM starting concentration was used for all test compounds. Data analysis was performed using the BiacoreT200 data evaluation software package (GE Healthcare). Compound injections were referenced to both a blank surface and a buffer blank. Processed data were fit to an equilibrium or kinetic model to obtain the observed dissociation constant KD.

The STING constructs (WT and H232R) were comprised of residues 155-341 with both N- and C-terminal truncations; the N-terminal transmembrane domains were removed (1-154), as well as the C-terminal tail (342-379). A highly specific N-terminal biotinylation was achieved enzymatically with the E. coli biotin ligase (BirA) and inclusion of the high-affinity biotinylation peptide AviTag™. 100 nM STING protein was immobilized on 20 pg streptavidin polyvinyl toluene (SA-PVT) beads in 150 mM NaCl, 25 mM Hepes (pH 7.5), 0.1 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT, 0.005% (v/v) Tween-20, 1% (v/v) DMSO. 100 nM 3H-cGAMP and compounds were added and allowed to come to equilibrium at room temperature (20 min). Compounds were tested in three-fold dilution series from a 100 μM starting concentration and normalized to a positive control compound that completely blocked 3H-cGAMP binding and the negative control DMSO. The KI for competitive binding was determined from the IC50 with the Cheng-Prusoff equation (Cheng & Prusoff, Biochemical Pharmacology, 22 (1973), pp. 3099-3108). The KD values for 3H-cGAMP used in the Cheng-Prusoff equation were determined empirically to be 1 nM for WT STING, and 750 nM for R232H STING. SPA competitive binding data is provided in Table 2.

THP-1 Cell Reporter Assay with Different Human STING Polymorphisms to Measure Type I Interferon Activity - The wild-type (WT) STING allele has been reported to have an additional 4 different single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human population that can affect its response. These SNPs are known as R71H-G230A-R293Q (HAQ), R232H, G230A-R293Q (AQ), and R293Q. In order to test whether indicated compounds can activate all five human STING alleles representing >98% of the human population, THP-1-Dual KO-STING cells (InvivoGen) were individually transduced with a lentivirus containing one of the human STING alleles (Genecopoeia). Transduced cells were selected and expression of STING was confirmed by western blot (data not shown). Selected cells were cultured and harvested in 50 mL conical tubes, counted using a BC Vi-flow and diluted to concentration of 7.4×105 cell/ml. 135 μl of diluted cells were transferred to a 96 well plate (100,000 cells/well) and incubated at 37° C. in a CO2 incubator for 3 to 4 hours. Next, 15 uL of serially diluted test compound were added to each well for stimulation, the plate containing cells and compounds was further incubated at 37° C. and 5% CO2 for 24 hours. After incubation, the plates were centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 10 min. 50 μl of cell culture supernatant of each well was transferred to a white, opaque 96 well plate. QUANTI-Luc™ (InvivoGen) powder was prepared in 25 mL of endotoxin-free water and 100 uL of prepared warm QUANTI-Luc solution were added to each well containing culture supernatant and the luminescence signal was measured immediately using a Perkin Elmer Enspire microplate reader (0.2 sec). RLU was obtained by raw value. THP-1 cell reporter assay date is provided in Table 4.
