Description

ORGANIC COMPOUNDS
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates generally to the field of inhibitors of stearoyl-CoA desaturase, such as heterocyclic derivatives, and uses for such compounds m treating and/or preventing various human diseases, including those mediated by stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) enzymes, preferably SCDl, especially diseases related to elevated lipid levels, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome, døπratological disorders and the like.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Acyl desaturase enzymes catalyze the formation of a double bond in fatty acids derived from either dietary sources or de HOVD synthesis in the liver. In mammals, at least three fatty acid desaturases exists, each with differing specificity: delta-9, delta-6, and delιa-3, which Introduce a double bond at the 9-10, 6-7, and 5-6 positions respectively.
Stearoyl-CoA desaturases (SCDs) act with cofactors (other agents) such as NADPH, cytochrome b5, cytochrome b5 reductase, Fe, and molecular O2 to introduce a double bond into the C9-C10 position (delta 9) of saturated fatty acids, when conjugated to Coenzyme A (CoA). The preferred substrates are palmitoyl-CoA (16:0) and stearoyl- CoA (18:0), which are converted to palmitoleoyl-CoA (16:1) and oleyl-CoA(18:l), respectively The resulting mono-unsaturated fatty acids are substrates foi further metabolism by fittty acid elongases or incorporation into phospholipids, triglycerides, and cholesterol esters. A number of mammalian SCD genes have been cloned For example, two genes have been identified in humans (h SCDl and hSCD5) and four SCD genes have been isolated from mouse (SCDl, SCD2, SCD3, and SCD4). While the basic biochemical role of SCD has been known in rats and mice since the 1970's (Jeffcoat, R. el al., Eur J. hiaehem (1979), Vol. 101, No. 2, pp. 439-445; de Antueno, R. etal., Lipids (1993), VoI 28, No. 4, pp. 285-290), it has only recently been directly implicated in human disease processes.
The two human SCD genes have been previously described: hSCD 1 by Brownlie et al., FCT published patent application, WO 01/62954, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety and hSCD2, PCT published patent application, WO 02/26944, incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
To date, the only small-molecule, drug-like compounds known that specifically inhibit or modulate SCD activity are found in the following PCT Published Patent Applications: WO 06/034338, WO 06/034446, WO 06/034441, WO 06/034440, WO 06/034341, WO 96/034315, WO 06/034312, WO 06/034279, WO 06/014158, WO 05/011657, WO 05/011556, WO 05/011655, WO 05/011654 and WO 05/01 1653 SCD inhibitors have also been described in by Zliao el al., Biorganic and Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2007, and PCT Published Patent Applications WO 06/130986 and WO 07/009236.
Before the discovery of the above compounds, only certain long-chain hydrocarbons, analogs of the substrate stearic acid, had been used to studj SCD activity. Known examples include thia-fatty acids, cyclopropenoid fatty acids, and certain conjugated linαleic acid isomers Specifically, eis-12, trans-] 0 conjugated linoleic acid is believed to inhibit SCD enzyme activity and reduce the abundance of SCD 1 mRNA, while cis-9, trans-11 isomer of conjugated linoleic acid does not have this biological activity. Cyclopropenoid fatty acids, such as those found in stercula and cotton seeds, are also known to inhibit SCD activity. For example, sterculic acid (8-(2 octylcyclopropenyOoctanoic acid) and malvalic acid (7-(2-oclylcyclopropenyl)heptaπoic acid) are CIS and Cl 6 derivatives of sterculoy] and malvaloyl fatty acids, respectively, having cyclopropene rings at their C9-C 10 position These agents must be coupled to CoA to act as inhibitors and are believed to inhibit SCD enzymatic activity by direct interaction with the enzyme complex, thus inhibiting delta-9 desaruration. Other agents that may inhibit SCD activity include thia-fatty acids, such as 9-thiastearic acid (also called 8-nonylthiooctanoic acid) and other fatty acids with a thioestcr moiety
There is a major unmet need for smεll molecule inhibitors of SCD enzyme activity because evidence is now compelling that SCD activity is directly implicated in common human disease processes1 See e g , Attie, A D et al, "Relationship between stearoyl-CoA desaturase activity and plasma iriglycerides in human and mouse

The present invention solves this problem by presenting new drug-like classes of compounds that are useful in modulating SCD activity and regulating lipid levels, especially plasm, lipid levels, and which arc useful in the treatment of SCD-mediated diseases such as diseases related to dyslipidemia and disorders of lipid metabolism, especially diseases related to elevated lipid levels, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome and the like.

The compounds identified in the instant specification inhibit the desaturation of various fatty acids (such as the C9-C10 desaturation of stearoyl-CoA), which is accomplished by delta-9 desaturases, such as stearoyl-CoA desaturase I (SCDl). As such these compounds inhibit the formation of vεrious fatty acids and downstream metabolites thereof. This may lead to an accumulation of 5tεaroyl-CoA or palmitoyl-CoA and olher upstream precursors of various fatty acids; which may possibly result in anegative feedback loop causing an overall change in fatty acid metabolism. Any cf these consequences may ultimately be responsible for the overall therapeutic benefit provided by these compounds.
Typically, a successful SCD inhibitory therapeutic agent will meet some or all of the following criteria. Oral availability should be at or above 20% Animal model efficacy is less than about 20 rng/Kg, 2 mg/Kg, 1 mg/Kg, or 0.5 mg/Kg and tile target human dose is between 10 and 250 mg/70 Kg, although doses outside of this range may be acceptable. ("mg/Kg" means milligrams of compound per kilogram of body mass of the subject to whom it is being administered). The required dosage should preferably be no more than about once or twice a day or a! meal times. The therapeutic index (or ratio of toxic dose to therapeutic dose) should be greater than 10. The IC50 ("Inhibitory Concentration - 50%") is a measure of the amount of compound required to achieve 50% inhibition of SCD activity, over a specific time period, in an SCD biological activity assay. Any process for measuring the activity of SCD enzymes, preferably mouse or human SCD enzymes, may be utilized to assay the activity of the compounds useful in the methods of the invention in inhibiting said SCD activity. Compounds of the invention demonstrate an IC50 ("Inhibitoty Concentration of 50%") in a 15 minute microsomal assay of preferably less than 10 μM, less than S μM, less than 2.5 μM, less than 1 μM, less than 750 nM, less than 50D nM, less than 250 nM, less than 100 nM, less than 50 πM, and most preferably less than 20 nM. Compounds of the invention may show
reversible inhibition (i.e., competitive inhibition) and preferably do not inhibit other iron binding proteins
The identification of compounds of the invention as SCD inhibitors was readily accomplished using the SCD enzyme and microsomal assay procedure described in Shanklin J. and Summerville C, Proc. Natl Acad. Sd. USA (1591), Vol. SS, pp.2510- 2514. When tested in this assay, compounds of the invention had less than 50% remaining SCXl activity at 10 μM concentration of the test compound, preferably less than 40% remaining SCD activity at 10 μM concentration of the test compound, more preferably less than 30% remaining SCD activity at 10 μM concentration offlie test compound, and even more preferably less than 20% remaining SCD activity at 10 μM concentration of the test compound, thereby demonstrating that the compounds of the invention are potent inhibitors of SCD activity.
These results provide the basis for analysis of the structure-activity relationship (SAR) between test compounds and SCD. Certain-groups tend to provide more potent inhibitory compounds. SAR analysis is one of the tools those skilled in the lit may employ to Identify preferred embodiments of the compounds of the invention for use as therapeutic agents. Other methods of testing the compounds disclosed herein are also readily available to those skilled in the art. Thus, in addition, the determination of the ability of a compound to inhibit SCD may be accomplished in vivo. In one such embodiment this is accomplished by administering said chemical agent to an animal afflicted withatriglyceride (TG)- or very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)-related disorder and subsequently detecting a change in plasma triglyceride level in said animal thereby identifying a therapeutic agent useful in treating a triglyceride (-T(Jy. or very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)-related disorder. In such embodiment, the animal may be a human, such as a human patient afflicted with such a disorder and in need of treatment of said disorder.
In specific embodiments of such in vivo processes, said change in SCDl activity in said animal is a decrease in activity, preferably wherein said SCDl modulating agent dαes not substantially inhibit the biological activity of a delta-5 desaturase, delta-6 desaturase or fatty acid synthetase or other enzymes containing Fe at the active site.
The model systems useful for compound evaluation may include, but are not
limited to, the use of liver microsomes, such as from mice that have been maintained on a Mgh carbohydrate diet or from human donors, including persons suffering from obesity- Immortalized cell lines, such as HepG2 (from human liver), MCF-7 (ftom human breast cancer) and 3T3-L1 (from mouse adipocytes) may also be used. Primary cdl lines, such as mouse primary hepatocytes, are also useAil in testing the compounds of the invention. Where whole animals are used, mice used as a source of primary hepatocyte cells may also be used wherein the mice have been maintained on a high carbohydrate diet to increase SCD activity in mirocrosomes and/or to elevate plasma triglyceride levels (i.e., the 1S:1/18:0 ratio); alternatively mice on anormal diet or mice with normal triglyceride levels may be used. Mouse models employing transgenic mice designed foi hypertriglyceridemia are also available. Ratbili and hamsters ate also useful as animal models, especially those expressing CETP (cholesterol ester transfer protein).
Another suitable method for determining the in vivo efficacy of the compounds of the invention is to indirectly measure their impact on inhibition of SCD enzyme by measuring a subject's Desaturation Index after administration of the compound.
"Desaturation Index" as employed in lhis specification means the ratio of the product over lhc substrate for the SCD enzyme as measured from a given tissue sample. This may be calculated using three different equations 18:ln-9/18:0 (oleic εcid over stearic acid); 16;ln-7/16:0 (palmitoleic acid over palmitic acid); and/or 16: ln-7 + 18:ln- 7/16:0 (measuring all reaction products of 16:0 desaturation over 16:0 substrate).
Desatiiration Index is primarily measured in liver or plasma triglycerides, but may also be measured in other selected lipid fractions from a variety of tissues. Desaturation Index, generally sneaking, is a tool for plasma lipid proflling.
A number of human diseases and disorders are the result of aberrant SCDI biological activity and may be ameliorated by modulation of SCDl biological activity using the therapeutic agents of the invention.
Inhibition of SCD expression may also affect the fatty acid composition of membrane phospholipids, as well as production or levels of triglycerides and cholesterol esters. The fatty acid composition of phospholipids ultimately determines membrane fluidity, with a subsequent modulation of the activity of multiple enzymes present within the membrane, while the effects on the composition of triglycerides and cholesterol esters
can affect lipoprotein metabolism and adiposity.
In carrying out the procedures of the present invention it is of couise to be understood that reference to particular buffers, media, reagents, cells, culture conditions and the like aie not intended to be limiting, but are to be read so as to include all related materials that one of ordinary skill in the art would recognize as being of interest or value in the particular context in which that discussion is presented.
For example, it is often possible to substitute one buffer system or culture medium for another and still achieve similar, if not identical, results. Those of skill in the art will have sufficient knowledge of such systems and methodologies so as to be able, without undue experimentation, to make such substitutions as will optimally serve tlieir purposes in using the methods and procedures disclosed herein.
Alternatively, another format can be used to measure the effect of SCD inhibition on sebaceous gland function. In a typical study using ridnets, oral, intravenous or topical formulations of the SCD inhibitor are administered to a rodent for a period of 1 to 8 days. Skin samples are taken and prepared for histological assessment to determine sebaceous gland number, size, or lipid content A reduction of sebaceous gland size, number or function would indicate that the SCD inhibitor would have a beneficial impact on acne vulgaris, (Clark, S.B. et at "Pharmacological modulation of sebaceous gland activity: mechanisms and clinical applications", De/røto/. Clin. (2007) Vol.25, ND 2, pp 137-46. Geiger, J.M , "Retinoids and sebaceous gland activity" Dermatology (1995), Vol. 191, No.4, pp 3C5-10).

Measuring Stearoyl-C&A Desaturase Inhibition Activity of a Test Compound Using
Mouse Liver Microsomes
The identification of compounds of (he invention as SCD inhibitors was readily accomplished using the SCD microsomal assay procedure described in Shanklin J. and Summβrvillβ C , Proc. Natl. Acad. Sd. USA (1991), Vol. 88, pp. 2510-2514.
Preparation of Mouse Liver Microsomes:
Male ICR outbread mice, on a high-carbohydrate, low fat diet, under light halothane (15'/4 in mineral oil) anesthesia are sacrificed by exsanguinatioπ during periods of high enzyme activity. Livers are immediately rinsed with cold 0.9% NaO solution, weighed and minced with scissors. AU procedures are performed at 4 °C unless specified otherwise. Livers are homogenized in a solution (1/3 w/v) containing 0.25 M sucrose, 62 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0), 0. IS M KCl, 15 mM JV-acetyleysteine, 5 mM MgCb, and 9.1 ™M EDTA using 4 strokes of a Potter-Elvehjem tissue homogenize:. The homogenate is centriftiged at 10,400 x g for 20 min to eliminate mitochondria and cellular debris. The supernatant is filtered through a 3-layer cheesecloth and centrifuged at 105,000 xg far 60 min. The microsomal pellet is gently resuspended in the same homogenizalion solution with a small glass/teflon homogenizer and stored at -70 °C. The absence of mitochondrial contamination is cnzymatically assessed. The protein concentration is measured using bovine serum albumin as the standard.
Incubation of Mouse Liver Microsomes with Test Compounds:
Desaturase activity is measured as the release Of5H2O from (9, 10-3H]stearoyl- CoA. Reactions per assay point conditions src as follows: 2 μL 1.5 mM stearoyl-CoA, 0.25 μL 1 mCi/mL 3H stearoyl CoA, 10 μL 20 mM NADH, 36.75 μL 0.1 M PK buffer (K2HPO4ZNaH2PO4, pH 7.2). The test compound or control solution Is added In a 1 UL volume. Reactions are started by adding 50 μL of microsomes (1.25 mg/mL). The plates
are mixed and after 15 mm incubation on aheating block (25 0C), the reactions are stopped by the addition of 10 μL 60% PCA An aliquot of 100 μL is then transferred to a filter plate pretreated with charcoal and the p ate centri&ged at 4000 rpm for 1 minute The flow through containing the H2O relessed by the SCDl desaturation reaction is added to scintillation fluid and the radioactiv ty measured m a Packard TopCount The data is analysed to identify the IC50 for test compounds and reference compounds
Representative compounds of the invention showed activity as inhibitors of SCD when tested in this assay The activity was defined in terms of % SCD enijme activity remaining at 1he desired concentration of the test compound or as the IC50 concentration The IC5O (affin ty) of the example compounds toward the stearoyl CoA desaturase is comprised between around 500 micro Molar and 0 0001 micro Molar or between around 100 micro Molar and 0 002 micro Molar or between around 10 micro Molar and 0 002 micro Molar Some results are shown in Tab e 1 below
