Abstract

The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I), or pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof, useful in the treatment of CCR5-related diseases and disorders, for example, useful in the inhibition of HIV replication, the prevention or treatment of an HIV infection, and in the treatment of the resulting acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS).

Description

PYRROLIDINE AND AZETIDINE COMPOUNDS AS CCR5 ANTAGONISTS
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The human immunodeficiency virus ("HIV") is the causative agent for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome ("AIDS"), a disease characterized by the destruction of the immune system, particularly of CD4+ T-cells, with attendant susceptibility to opportunistic infections, and its precursor AIDS-related complex ("ARC"), a syndrome characterized by symptoms such as persistent generalized lymphadenopathy, fever and weight loss.
In addition to CD4, HIV requires a co-receptor for entry into target cells. The chemokine receptors function together with CD4 as co-receptors for HIV. The chemokine receptors CXCR4 and CCR5 have been identified as the main co- receptors for HIV-1. CCR5 acts as a major co-receptor for fusion and entry of macrophage-tropic HIV into host cells. These chemokine receptors are thought to play an essential role in the establishment and dissemination of an HIV infection. Therefore, CCR5 antagonists are thought to be useful as therapeutic agents active against HIV.
We have now discovered a series of small molecule nonpeptide compounds that are useful as inhibitors of HIV replication.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention features compounds that are useful in the inhibition of HIV replication, the prevention of infection by HIV, the treatment of infection by HIV and in the treatment of AIDS and/or ARC, either as pharmaceutically acceptable salts or pharmaceutical composition ingredients. The present invention further features methods of treating AIDS, methods of preventing infection by HIV, and methods of treating infection by HIV as monotherapy or in combination with other antivirals, anti- infectives, immunomodulators, antibiotics or vaccines. The present invention also features pharmaceutical compositions, comprising the above-mentioned compounds that are suitable for the prevention or treatment of CCR5-related diseases and conditions. The present invention further features processes for making the above- mentioned compounds.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The phrase "optionally substituted" is used interchangeably with the phrase "substituted or unsubstituted" or with the term "(un)substituted." Unless otherwise indicated, an optionally substituted group may have a substituent at each substitutable position of the group, and each substitution is independent of the other.
The term "alkyl", alone or in combination with any other term, refers to a straight-chain or branched-chain saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon radical containing the specified number of carbon atoms. Examples of alkyl radicals include, but are not limited to, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, pentyl, isoamyl, n-hexyl and the like.
The term "cycloalkyl", "carbocylyl", "carbocyclic", or "carbocycle", or "carbocyclo", alone or in combination with any other term, refers to a monocyclic or polycyclic non-aromatic hydrocarbon ring radical having three to twenty carbon atoms, preferably from three to twelve carbon atoms, and more preferably from three to ten carbon atoms. If polycyclic, each ring in a carbocylyl radical is non-aromatic unless otherwise indicated. A carbocylyl radical is either completely saturated or contains one or more units of unsaturation but is not aromatic. The unsaturation, if present, may occur in any point in the ring that may result in any chemically stable configuration. The term "cycloalkyl", "carbocylyl", "carbocyclic", or "carbocycle", or "carbocyclo" also includes hydrocarbon rings that are fused to one or more aromatic rings, such as in tetrahydronaphthyl, where the radical or point of attachment is on the non-aromatic ring.
Unless otherwise indicated, the term "cycloalkyl", "carbocylyl", "carbocyclic", or "carbocycle", or "carbocyclo" also includes each possible positional isomer of a non-aromatic hydrocarbon radical, such as in 1-decahydronaphthyl, 2- decahydronaphthyl, 1 -tetrahydronaphthyl and 2-tetrahydronaphthyl. Examples of suitable cycloalkyl groups include, but are not limited to, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cyclohexenyl, decahydronaphthyl, tetrahydronaphthyl and the like.
The term "alkenyl," alone or in combination with any other term, refers to a straight-chain or branched-chain alkyl group with at least one carbon-carbon double bond. Examples of alkenyl radicals include, but are not limited to, ethenyl, propenyl, isopropenyl, butenyl, isobutenyl, pentenyl, hexenyl, hexadienyl and the like.
The term "alkynyl" refers to hydrocarbon groups of either a straight or branched configuration with one or more carbon-carbon triple bonds which may occur in any stable point along the chain, such as ethynyl, propynyl, butynyl, pentynyl, and the like.
The term "alkoxy" refers to an alkyl ether radical, wherein the term "alkyl" is defined above. Examples of suitable alkyl ether radicals include, but are not limited to, methoxy, ethoxy, n-propoxy, isopropoxy, n-butoxy, isobutoxy, sec-butoxy, tert- butoxy and the like.
The term "aryl", alone or in combination with any other term, refers to an aromatic monocyclic or polycyclic hydrocarbon ring radical containing five to twenty carbon atoms, preferably from six to fourteen carbon atoms, and more preferably from six to ten carbon atoms. Also included within the scope of the term "aryl", as it is used herein, is a group in which an aromatic hydrocarbon ring is fused to one or more non-aromatic carbocyclic or heteroatom-containing rings, such as in an indanyl, phenanthridinyl or tetrahydronaphthyl, where the radical or point of attachment is on the aromatic hydrocarbon ring.
Unless otherwise indicated, the term "aryl" also includes each possible positional isomer of an aromatic hydrocarbon radical, such as in 1-naphthyl, 2- naphthyl, 5-tetrahydronaphthyl, 6-tetrahydronaphthyl, 1 -phenanthridinyl, 2- phenanthridinyl, 3-phenanthridinyl, 4-phenanthridinyl, 7-phenanthridinyl, 8- phenanthridinyl, 9-phenanthridinyl and 10-phenanthridinyl. Examples of aryl radicals include, but are not limited to, phenyl, naphthyl, indenyl, azulenyl, fluorenyl, anthracenyl, phenanthrenyl, tetrahydronaphthyl, indanyl, phenanthridinyl and the like. The term "aralkyl" further refers to groups of -RaRb, where Ra is an alkylene as defined herein and Rb is an aryl as defined herein.
The term "heterocycle", "heterocyclic", and "heterocyclyl", alone or in combination with any other term, refers to a non-aromatic monocyclic or polycyclic ring radical containing three to twenty carbon atoms, preferably three to seven carbon atoms if monocyclic and eight to eleven carbon atoms if bicyclic, and in which one or more ring carbons, preferably one to four, are each replaced by a heteroatom such as N, O, and S. If polycyclic, each ring in a heterocyclyl radical is non-aromatic unless otherwise indicated. A heterocyclic ring may be fully saturated or may contain one or more units of unsaturation but is not aromatic.

CC-Chemokine Receptor-5 Binding by Scintillation Proximity Assay (CCR5 SPA)
Scintillation Proximity Assay for the Human CC-Chemokine Receptor, CCR-5
This protocol describes a high-throughput screen using SPA binding to identify compounds that inhibit binding of 125l-MIP1α to the human CCR5 chemokine receptor.
CCR5 is a G protein-coupled receptor that binds the natural chemokine ligands,
MIP1α, MIP1β and RANTES. CCR5 acts as a co-receptor with CD4 for entry of HIV- 1 into human T-cells and monocytes. Chemokines also play a role in acute and chronic inflammatory processes. Chemokines are soluble proteins produced and released by a wide variety of cell types during the initial phase of a host response to a forgein substance entering the body.
Human CCR5 receptors were expressed in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells, registration # 12025. Cells were grown in suspension and a 50 to 80 ml CCR5 cell pellet was prepared. Membrane preparation: 1) Weigh pellet; 2)Prepare an ice-cold 50mM HEPES buffer, containing 0.0025mg/ml Pefabloc, 0.0001 mg/ml Pepstatin A, 0.0001 mg/ml Leupeptin, 0.0001 mg/ml Aprotinin (protease inhibitor cocktail), pH 7.4; 3) Homogenize pellet in 5 volumes of HEPES buffer; 4) Homogenize again with a glass homogenizer 10 to 20 strokes; 5) Centrifuge homogenate at 18,000 rpm in a F28/36 rotor using a Sorvall RC26 PIUS refrigerated Centrifuge for 30 minutes; 6) Discard supernatant and resuspend pellet in 3 volumes of HEPES buffer; 7) Homogenize and centrifuge again using steps 4-6, 2 more times; 8) Reweigh pellet and homogenize in 3X weight-to-volume of HEPES buffer; 9) Aliquot 0.5 to 1.5ml of the membrane preparation into small vials and store at -80 degrees Centigrade; 10) Determine the protein concentration of the membrane preparation using the Bio-Rad or BCA method; 11) The membrane homogenate will need to be characterized for the assay conditions a.) Protein concentration; b.) Optimal protein-to-bead ratio in SPA; and c.) Saturation curve to determine Kd and Bmax in SPA
The saturation curve binding experiment is performed by adding varying amounts of [125l]MIP1 (0-8.5nM to membranes and beads in concentrations chosen from the optimal protein/bead ratio. The data is analyzed using a non-linear curve-fitting program. The Kd and Bmax are derived from the curve.
Bacitracin 50mg/ml is dissolved in deionized water, brought to a boil for 5 minutes (to destroy protease activity) and cooled. Prepared 1ml aliquots and store at -80°C.
Protease inhibitor cocktail is prepared by dissolving 25 mg/ml of Pefabloc, 1 mg/ml of Leupeptin, 1 mg/ml of Aprotinin and 1 mg/ml of Pepstatin A in 100% DMSO. The cocktail can be aliquoted and stored frozen at -20°C until needed.
Sigmacote: Any reagent bottles and reservoirs that come in contact with the radioligand are treated with Sigmacote to reduce sticking. Rinse containers with undiluted Sigmacote; rinse with deionized water several times, and allow to air dry before using.
Color Quench Assay- [125l] SPA PVT color quench kit, Cat. No. RPAQ 4030, Amersham Ltd. A color quench curve is generated for each Packard TopCount and is stored in each counting protocol specific for the assay. This is done to prevent colored compounds from quenching the scintillation counts.
Compounds Preparation: Compounds for a single concentration determination (One Shots) are delivered in 96 well Packard Optiplates containing 1 μl of compound in 100% DMSO in columns A1- H10 (80 compounds/plate). Column A11 to H11 is used for total binding (Bo) (vehicle-5 μl of the appropriate DMSO concentration) and column A12 to D12 is used for determination of nonspecific binding. No further preparation is required.
Compounds for concentration-response curves (10 points) are delivered in 96- Packard Optiplates containing 1 μl of compound in 100% DMSO in columns A1-H10. A 10-point concentration-response curve is desired for each compound with a starting high concentration of 30 μM (in the assauy final). Column A11 to H11 is used for total binding (Bo) (vehicle-5 μl of the appropriate DMSO concentration) and column A12 to D12 is used for determination of nonspecific binding. No further preparation is required

Assay Buffer Preparation: 50 mM HEPES buffer pH 7.4, 1mM CaCl2, 5mM MgCI2(this can be made ahead as a 10OX stock), 1 % BSA, 0.5 mg/ml Bacitracin, Protease inhibitor Cocktail (see preparation above) 100 uL/100 ml, DMSO is added to equal a final concentration of 2% per well (includes compound %DMSO) if needed.
Experimental Details: r125l1MIP1α preparation:
Prepared radioligand dilutions in container treated with Sigmacote Reconstitute each 50 μCi vial with 0.5 ml of deionized water and store at 4°C. Specific Activity = 2,000 Ci/mmol
Add -60,000 cpm (0.17 nM) to each assay well in 50uL
Make a 20% DMSO solution and add 5uls of this to each well in col A1 1-H11. This gives a final 2% DMSO concentration for the well when added to the 1% in the assay buffer.
NSB:
Make a stock dilution of MIP1α at 100uM using deionized water; aliquot and freeze. Dilute the MIP-1α stock solution to a concentration of 2 μM in the same 20% DMSO solution used above and add 5 μl to the wells in column A12 to D12 to give a final assay concentration of 100nM. Prepare this in a Sigmacote-treated container
Membrane and SPA Bead preparation- The final assay concentration for the membrane is 15 μg per well. SPA beads are prepared by adding 5 ml of assay buffer to a 500 mg vial. The final concentration of SPA beads in the assay is 0.25 mg/well. Membranes and beads are premixed as a 1 :1 (membrane:bead) mixture and maintained at mixture at 4°C with constant stirring. 50 μl of the mixture is added to each assay well. After all reagents have been added to the plates (total assay volume 100 μl), shake plates for 4 hours at room temperature. After 4 hours, place the plates on the TopCount in a count the plates on the TopCount for 30 sec per well using an appropriate program (i.e., one with a quench curve established for the conditions of the assay. Data Reduction:
Data reduction is performed using the Microsoft Excel Addins Robofit or Robosage.
For single concentration assays (One Shots), the result of each test well is expressed as % inhibition using the following formula: 100*(1-(U1-C2)/(C1-C2)). Where U1 is the unknown sample in cpm observed in a particular well, C1 is the average of column 12 cpm observed in the absence of any added inhibitor, and C2 is the average of column 11 cpm observed in the presence of 1μM of MIP1 .
For concentration-response assays, the result of each test well is expressed as %B/Bo (% total specific binding) using the following formula: 100* (U1-C2)/C1-C2). Curves were generated by plotting the %B/Bo versus the concentration and the IC50 is derived using the equation y=Vmax*(1-(xΛn/(kΛn+xΛn))).
Controls and Standards:
Each plate contains 12 wells of total binding (column A11-H11). The cpm/well are averaged and are used in data reduction as value d .Each plate also contains 4 wells of non-specific binding (wells A12-D12). The counts of these wells are averaged and used in data reduction as value C2.
A standards plate is included in each experiment. This plate contains a 14-point concentration-response curve (in triplicate) for the standard compound MIP1α at a starting concentration of 1 μM. The average historical pKj obtained with MIP1α is 7.6.
The relevant biological response field for a single concentration (One Shots) is % inhibition. Inhibition values of >40 or >50% were considered positive responses.
The relevant biological response field for a concentration-response experiment is pK| HOS Assay (Also referred to as HOS-LTR-Luciferase Assay)

Advanced Preparation Growth and Maintenance of the HOS-CD4.CCR5-LTR-Luciferase cell line:
The cells were propagated in DMEM containing 2% FBS. Cells were split by standard trypsinization when confluency reached 80% (roughly every 2 to 3 days).
Titering of virus stocks: HIV-1 virus stocks were titered in the assay system in order to obtain an estimate of the number of infectious particles per unit volume (described as RLU/ml). Virus stocks were diluted into DMEM containing 2% FBS and assayed as described in the "procedure" section below.
Procedure
Black-walled 96-well tissue culture plates were seeded with HOS-CD4.CCR5-LTR- Luciferase @ 0.6 to 1.2 x 103 cells per well in 50ul DMEM containing 2% FBS and placed in a humidified incubator @ 37°C, 5% CO2 overnight. The following day, test compounds were titrated 4-fold at 2X the final concentration in DMEM + 2% FBS + 0.2% DMSO. 50μl of titrated compound was transferred to the HOS cells and the plates were placed in a humidified incubator at 37°C, 5% CO2for 1hr. An additional 60ul of 2X titrated compound was transferred to a clear-walled 96-well tissue culture plate and 60ul of HIV (diluted to appropriate m.o.i.) was added to each well and thoroughly mixed. 100ul of the HIV/compound mixture was transferred to the black- walled plates containing 100ul of cells/compound. The plates were placed in a humidified incubator at 37°C, 5% CO2for 72hr Following the 72 hour incubation, 150ul of supernatant was removed and 50ul of reconstituted LUCLITE (kit reagent) was added to each well. Each plate was sealed and read in a Topcount (Packard) luminometer at 1s/well. Data Reduction
