Definitions

  • the invention concerns compounds which inhibit MEK and which have activity as anti-neoplastic agents. These compounds include N-substituted- 3-hydroxy-5-aryl- isothiazole-4-carboxamidines. Also included are the tautomeric isothiazol-3(2H)-ones.
  • Oncogenes genes that contribute to the production of cancers ⁇ are generally mutated forms of certain normal cellular genes ("proto-oncogenes"). Oncogenes often encode abnormal versions of signal pathway components, such as receptor tyrosine kinases, serine-threonine kinases, or downstream signaling molecules.
  • the central downstream signaling molecules are the Ras proteins, which are anchored on the inner surfaces of cytoplasmic membranes, and which hydrolyze bound guanosine triphosphate (GTP) to guanosine diphosphate (GDP).
  • GTP guanosine triphosphate
  • GDP guanosine diphosphate
  • Ras alternates between an active "on” state with a bound GTP (hereafter “Ras.GTP”) and an inactive "off state with a bound GDP.
  • the active "on” state, Ras.GTP binds to and activates proteins that control the growth and differentiation of cells.
  • Ras.GTP leads to the activation of a cascade of serine/threonine kinases.
  • MAP kinase mitogen- «ctivated/?rotein kinase
  • Ras.GTP leads to the activation of a cascade of serine/threonine kinases.
  • One of several groups of kinases known to require a Ras.GTP for their own activation is the Raf family.
  • the Raf proteins activate "MEKl” and "MEK2,” abbreviations for /nitogen-activated £RK- activating kinases (where ERK is extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase, another designation for MAPK).
  • MEKl and MEK2 are dual-function serine/threonine and tyrosine protein kinases and are also known as MAP kinase kinases.
  • Ras.GTP activates Raf, which activates MEKl and MEK2, which activate MAP kinase (MAPK).
  • MAPK MAP kinase
  • Blockade of downstream Ras signaling as by use of a dominant negative Raf-1 protein, can completely inhibit mitogenesis, whether induced from cell surface receptors or from oncogenic Ras mutants.
  • Raf and Ras are key regulatory steps in the control of cell proliferation.
  • no substrates of MEK other than MAPK have been identified; however, recent reports indicate that MEK may also be activated by other upstream signal proteins such as MEK kinase or MEKKl and PKC.
  • Activated MAPK translocates and accumulates in the nucleus, where it can phosphorylate and activate transcription factors such as EIk-I and Sapla, leading to the enhanced expression of genes such as that for c-fos.
  • Raf and other kinases phosphorylate MEK on two neighboring serine residues, S and S in the case of MEK-I . These phosphorylations are required for activation of MEK as a kinase.
  • MEK phosphorylates MAP kinase on two residues separated by a single amino acid: a tyrosine, Y 185 , and a threonine, T 183 .
  • MEK appears to associate strongly with MAP kinase prior to phosphorylating it, suggesting that phosphorylation of MAP kinase by MEK may require a prior strong interaction between the two proteins.
  • MEK' s mechanism of action may differ sufficiently from the mechanisms of other protein kinases as to allow for selective inhibitors of MEK. Possibly, such inhibitors would operate through allosteric mechanisms rather than through the more usual mechanism involving blockage of an ATP binding site.
  • MEKl and MEK2 are, therefore, validated and accepted targets for anti-proliferative therapies, even when the oncogenic mutation does not affect MEK structure or expression. See, e.g., U.S. Patent Publications 2003/0149015 by Barrett et al. and 2004/0029898 by Boyle et al.
