Abstract

The present disclosure relates to HIF-1α prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors, compositions which comprise the HIF-1α prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors described herein and to methods for controlling, inter alia, Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD), Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), heart failure, ischemia, and anemia.

Description

PROLYL HYDROXYLASE INHIBITORS AND METHODS OF USE
FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE The present disclosure relates, in some aspects, to HIF- lα prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, compositions comprising the HIF- lα prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor compounds, and to methods for treating or controlling, inter alia, Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD), Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), heart failure, ischemia, and anemia.
BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE
HIF- lα under normal healthy conditions wherein the cells have a sufficient supply of oxygen is readily converted to a degraded form by one of several prolyl hydroxylase enzymes, inter alia, EGLIN. When cells undergo hypoxia, this enzymatic transformation is slow or entirely stopped and HIF-lα begins to build up in the cell. When this build up of HIF-lα occurs, this protein combines with another factor, HIF- lβ which together form an active transcription factor complex. This transcription factor then activates several biological pathways which are present as a response to and a means for alleviating the body's state of hypoxia. These responses include, inter alia, angiogenic, erythropoietic (EPO), glucose metabolism, and matrix alteration responses.
In patients where there is a need for stimulating one or more of these responses, for example, in patients in need of increased tissue oxygen due to peripheral vascular disease (PVD), inhibiting the EGLIN enzyme will stimulate the body's own angiogenic response without the consequences of oxygen deficiency. In addition, in diseases of ischemia, inter alia, CAD and anemia, stimulation of angiogenic, erythropoietic, and metabolic adaptation would be expected to provide therapeutic benefits.
Therefore there continues to be a long felt need for compounds that inhibit prolyl hydroxylase enzymes and thereby regulate the concentration of HIF-I α in cells so as to induce angiogenic or erythropoietic responses and therefore treat diseases related to hypoxia or anemia.
SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE
The substituted aryl or heteroaryl amide compounds of the present disclosure are a new class of compounds that can inhibit HIF- lα prolyl hydroxylase, thus resulting in improvement in blood flow, oxygen delivery and energy utilization in ischemic tissues, or upregulate the production of erythropoietin so as to treat anemia.

Administration of one or more of the compounds of Formula (I), alone in the form of pharmaceutical compositions, optionally in combination with other pharmaceutically active compounds or compositions, can be effective in treatment of the following disease states or conditions: i) as human protein HIF- lα prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors; and thereby providing a means for regulating blood flow, oxygen delivery and energy utilization in ischemic tissues; ii) the compounds of the present disclosure are efficacious in regulating blood flow, oxygen delivery and energy utilization in ischemic tissues; and iii) the compounds of the present disclosure provide stabilized HIF-lα by blocking a degradation pathway mediated by HIF prolyl hydroxylase.
Each of the disease states or conditions which the formulator desires to treat may require differing levels or amounts of the compounds described herein to obtain a therapeutic level. The formulator can determine this amount by any of the testing procedures known to the artisan or ordinary skil in the art.
The compounds of the present disclosure can be HIF- lα prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors when administered in pharmaceutically effective amounts, and thereby provide increased angiogenic response or cellular responses which are activated by transcription factors that are directly or indirectly affected by an increase in cellular HIF- lα concentration. Non-limiting examples of these diseases or disease states are listed herein below, inter alia, Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD), Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), heart failure, ischemia, and anemia. The compounds disclosed herein are especially effective in the treatment of anemia. Stimulation of EPO production: anemia HIF-I is a transcription factor that also regulates the hypoxia-inducible EPO gene. HIF-
1 binding is required for EPO transcriptional activation in response to hypoxia (Semenza, G.L.,"Regulation of erythropoietin production: New insights into molecular mechanisms of oxygen homeostasis", Hematol. Oncol CUh. North Am., Vol. 8, pp. 863-884 (1994)). In particular, HIF- lα binds to the 31 hypoxia-response element of the EPO gene which results in the marked enhancement of EPO transcription (Semenza, G. L., et al. "Transcriptional regulation of genes encoding glycolytic enzymes by hypoxia-inducible factor 1", J. Biol. Chem. Vol. 269, pp. 23757-63 (1994)). EPO, in turn, is essential for maintenance of red blood cells by controlling the proliferation and differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells into red blood cells (Krantz, S. B., "Erythropoietin," Blood, Vol. 77, pp 419-434 (1991)). During fetal development, the liver serves as the primary source of EPO. Shortly before birth, production of EPO in the liver decreases and the kidney becomes the primary source of EPO. However, in adults other organs such as the liver and brain produce small but significant amounts of EPO. A erythropoietin deficiency is associated with anemia. In humans, the most prevalent form of anemia is associated with kidney failure. EPO has been described in the treatment of anemia: associated with chemotherapy; that occurs as a consequence of AIDS; and due to prematurity and autologous blood donation. EPO has even been suggested as a general use agent in pre-operative elective surgery. Angiogenesis
Angiogenesis, the sprouting of new blood vessels from the pre-existing vasculature, plays a crucial role in a wide range of physiological and pathological processes (Nguyen, LX. ei al, Int. Rev. CytoL, 204, 1-48, (2001). Angiogenesis is a complex process, mediated by communication between the endothelial cells that line blood vessels and their surrounding environment. In the early stages of angiogenesis, tissue or tumor cells produce and secrete pro- angiogenic growth factors in response to environmental stimuli such as hypoxia. These factors diffuse to nearby endothelial cells and stimulate receptors that lead to the production and secretion of proteases that degrade the surrounding extracellular matrix. The activated endothelial cells begin to migrate and proliferate into the surrounding tissue toward the source of these growth factors (Bussolino, F., Trends Biochem. ScL, 22, 251-256, (1997)). Endothelial cells then stop proliferating and differentiate into tubular structures, which is the first step in the formation of stable, mature blood vessels. Subsequently, periendothelial cells, such as pericytes and smooth muscle cells, are recruited to the newly formed vessel in a further step toward vesse maturation.
Angiogenesis is regulated by a balance of naturally occurring pro- and anti-angiogenic factors. Vascular endothelial growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, and angiopoeitin represen a few of the many potential pro-angiogenic growth factors. These ligands bind to their respective receptor tyrosine kinases on the endothelial cell surface and transduce signals that promote cell migration and proliferation. Whereas many regulatory factors have been identifiec the molecular mechanisms of this process are still not fully understood.
There are many disease states driven by persistent unregulated or improperly regulated angiogenesis. In such disease states, unregulated or improperly regulated angiogenesis may either cause a particular disease or exacerbate an existing pathological condition. For example, ocular neovascularization has been implicated as the most common cause of blindness and underlies the pathology of approximately 20 eye diseases. In certain previously existing conditions such as arthritis, newly formed capillary blood vessels invade the joints and destroy cartilage. In diabetes, new capillaries formed in the retina invade the vitreous humor, causing bleeding and blindness. Both the growth and metastasis of solid tumors are also angiogenesis-dependent
(Folkman et al., "Tumor Angiogenesis," Chapter 10, 206-32, in The Molecular Basis of Cancer Mendelsohn et al., eds., W. B. Saunders, (1995)). It has been shown that tumors which enlarge to greater than 2 mm in diameter must obtain their own blood supply and do so by inducing the growth of new capillary blood vessels. After these new blood vessels become embedded in the tumor, they provide nutrients and growth factors essential for tumor growth as well as a means for tumor cells to enter the circulation and metastasize to distant sites, such as liver, lung or bone (Weidner, NewEng. J. Med., 324, 1, 1-8 (1991). When used as drugs in tumor-bearing animals, natural inhibitors of angiogenesis may prevent the growth of small tumors (O'Reilly el al., Cell, 79, 315-28 (1994). In some protocols, the application of such inhibitors leads to tumor regression and dormancy even after cessation of treatment (O'Reilly et al., Cell, 88, 277-85 (1997)). Moreover, supplying inhibitors of angiogenesis to certain tumors may potentiate their response to other therapeutic regimens (Teischer et al., Int. J. Cancer, 57, 920-25 (1994)). Peripheral Vascular Disease
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is the term used to describe the clinical syndrome of vascular insufficiency outside of the coronary circulation and typically involving the circulation to the lower extremities. There are an estimated 8-12 million patients in the US with peripheral vascular disease; another 16.5 million undiagnosed. Atherosclerosis is by far the leading cause of peripheral vascular disease (PVD), although a number of discrete disease processes can contribute to its development and progression (i.e. diabetes, immune vasculitis and trauma). Atherosclerotic PVD can present in three ways:
1) Asymptomatic PVD diagnosed on the basis of noninvasive testing (usually physical exam); 2) Intermittent claudication with symptoms of leg pain with exercise; and
3) Critical limb ischemia with leg pain at rest and limb-threatening ischemic changes (usually non-healing or infected cutaneous ulcerations). The age- adjusted (average age 66 years) prevalence of PVD in the US population is approximately 12%. Of those patients with claudication, 20-30% will have progressive symptoms and 10% will require amputation for critical limb ischemia. Although patients with symptomatic PVD suffer significant decreases in mobility, muscle mass, bone density and quality of life, there are currently no effective medical therapies available.
The present disclosure provides compounds which when administered in vivo inhibit HIF- lα prolyl hydroxylase thereby leading to increased expression of HIF-regulated genes, inter alia, angiogenic factors, erythropoietin, and glycolytic enzymes thereby resulting in improvement in blood flow, oxygen delivery and energy utilization in ischemic tissues. Although many disease states are driven by persistent unregulated or improperly regulated angiogenesis, some disease states could be treated by increased angiogenesis. Tissue growth and repair are biologic events wherein cellular proliferation and angiogenesis occur. Thus an important aspect of wound repair is the revascularization of damaged tissue by angiogenesis.
Wounds Chronic, non-healing wounds are a major cause of prolonged morbidity in the aged human population. This is especially the case in bedridden or diabetic patients who develop severe, non-healing skin ulcers. In many of these cases, the delay in healing is a result of inadequate blood supply either as a result of continuous pressure or of vascular blockage. Poor capillary circulation due to small artery atherosclerosis or venous stasis contributes to the failure to repair damaged tissue. Such tissues are often infected with microorganisms that proliferate unchallenged by the innate defense systems of the body which require well vascularized tissue to effectively eliminate pathogenic organisms. As a result, most therapeutic intervention centers on restoring blood flow to ischemic tissues thereby allowing nutrients and immunological factors access to the site of the wound. Atherosclerotic Lesions
Atherosclerotic lesions in large vessels may cause tissue ischemia that could be ameliorated by modulating blood vessel growth to the affected tissue. For example, atherosclerotic lesions in the coronary arteries may cause angina and myocardial infarction that could be prevented if one could restore blood flow by stimulating the growth of collateral arteries. Similarly, atherosclerotic lesions in the large arteries that supply the legs may cause ischemia in the skeletal muscle that limits mobility and in some cases necessitates amputation, which may also be prevented by improving blood flow with angiogenic therapy.
Diabetes/Hypertension
Diseases such as diabetes and hypertension are characterized by a decrease in the number and density of small blood vessels such as arterioles and capillaries. These small blood vessels are important for the delivery of oxygen and nutrients. A decrease in the number and density of these vessels contributes to the adverse consequences of hypertension and diabetes including claudication, ischemic ulcers, accelerated hypertension, and renal failure. These common disorders and many other less common ailments, such as Burgers disease, could be ameliorated by increasing the number and density of small blood vessels using angiogenic therapy. The present disclosure further relates to forms of the present compounds, which under normal human or higher mammalian physiological conditions, release the compounds described herein. One iteration of this aspect includes the pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the analogs described herein.

METHOD OF USE By increasing the transcription of these HIF-I target genes, the HIF-lα prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors of the present disclosure provide a method for increasing the vascularization of tissue in a subject. As used herein, "vascularization of tissue" means a pro- angiogenic response whereby blood vessels or other vessels or ducts develop at or around the afflicted tissue. The afflicted tissue need not be hypoxic or ischemic per se, but rather the HIF- lα prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors help to sustain or further stimulate the body's pro-angiogenic response to hypoxia. A non-limiting example of "vascularization" includes capillary proliferation in a non-healing wound or along the border of ischemic tissue. Thus, these compounds enhance the ability of the body to revascularize damaged tissues or increase vasculature (e.g. to prevent hypoxic damage). Non-limiting examples of "tissue" include: cardiac tissue, such as myocardium and cardiac ventricles; skeletal muscle; neurological tissue, such as from the cerebellum; internal organs, such as the stomach, intestine, pancreas, liver, spleen, and lung; and distal appendages such as fingers and toes. • Stimulated by a build up of the cellular concentration of HIF-I α is the production of
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) which is known for its ability to induce vascular leakage. Oxygen tension has been shown to be a key regulator of VEGF gene expression, both in vitro and in vivo. During VEGF induction it is demonstrated that VEGF induces the formation of functional neo-vessels in the mouse cornea and enhanced blood flow in a dog model of coronary artery disease. The HIF- lα prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors of the present disclosure provide enhancement in the expression of multiple hypoxia inducible genes including VEGF, GAPDH and erythropoietin (EPO). Additionally, the HIF- lα prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors of the present disclosure provide enhanced the accumulation of HIFl -α in the cytoplasm and nucleus. Transgenic mice expressing a constitutively active HIF- lα in the skin have increased dermal vascularity and had a 13-fold increase in VEGF levels

PROCEDURES
EGLN-I activity assay
The EGLN-I (or EGLN-3) enzyme activity is determined using mass spectrometry (matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization, time-of-flight MS, MALDI-TOF MS - for assay details, see reference (Greis et al., 2006). Recombinant human EGLN-1-179/426 is prepared as described above and in the Supplemental Data. Full-length recombinant human EGLN-3 is prepared in a similar way, however it is necessary to use the His-MBP-TVMV-EGLN-3 fusion for the assay due to the instability of the cleaved protein. For both enzymes, the HIF- lα peptide corresponding to residues 556-574 (DLDLEALAPYIP ADDDFQL) is used as substrate. The reaction is conducted in a total volume of 50 uL containing TrisCl (5 mM, pH 7.5), ascorbate (120 μM), 2-oxoglutarate (3.2 μM), HIF-lα (8.6 μM), and bovine serum albumin (0.01%). The enzyme, quantity predetermined to hydroxylate 20% of substrate in 20 minutes, is added to start the reaction. Where inhibitors are used, compounds are prepared in dimethyl sulfoxide at 10- fold final assay concentration. After 20 minutes at room temperature, the reaction is stopped by transferring 10 μL of reaction mixture to 50 μL of a mass spectrometry matrix solution (α- cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid, 5 mg/mL in 50% acetonitrile/0.1% TFA, 5 mM NH4PO4). Two microliters of the mixture is spotted onto a MALDI-TOF MS target plate for analysis with an Applied Biosystems (Foster City, CA) 4700 Proteomics Analyzer MALDI-TOF MS equipped with a Nd: YAG laser (355 nm, 3 ns pulse width, 200 Hz repetition rate). Hydroxylated peptide product is identified from substrate by the gain of 16 Da. Data defined as percent conversion of substrate to product is analyzed in GraphPad Prism 4 to calculate IC50 values.
VEGF ELISA assay
HEK293 cells are seeded in 96-well poly-lysine coated plates at 20,000 cells per well in DMEM (10% FBS, 1% NEAA, 0.1% glutamine). Following overnight incubation, the cells are washed with 100 uL of Opti-MEM (Gibco, Carlsbad, CA) to remove serum. Compound in DMSO is serially diluted (beginning with 100 μM) in Opti-MEM and added to the cells. The conditioned media is analyzed for VEGF with a Quantikine human VEGF immunoassay kit (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN). Optical density measurements at 450nm are recorded using the Spectra Max 250 (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, CA). Data defined as % of DFO stimulation is used to calculate EC50 values with GraphPad Prism 4 software (San Diego, CA).
Mouse ischemic hindlimb study
All animal work is conducted in accordance with the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals (National Academy of Sciences; Copyright ©1996) and the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee guidelines at Procter and Gamble Pharmaceuticals. We studiec 9-10 week old male C57B1/6 mice from Charles River Laboratory (Portage, MI). The mice are orally dosed with vehicle (aqueous carbonate buffer, 50 mM; pH 9.0) or compound 1 in vehicle at 50 mg/kg or 100 mg/kg. The animals are dosed three times: day 1 at 8am and 5 pm, day 2 at 8am. One hour after the first dose, unilateral arterial ligation is performed under anesthesia using isoflurane. The femoral artery is ligated proximal to the origin of the popliteal artery. The contralateral limb underwent a sham surgical procedure. Ligation is performed in an alternating fashion between right and left hindlimbs. Two hours after 8am dosing on day 2, we obtained blood by ventricular stick while the mice are anesthetized with isoflurane. Serum samples for EPO analysis are obtained using gel clot serum separation tubes. Heart, liver, and gastrocnemius muscles are harvested, snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored in -8O0C until use.
Mouse Serum EPO assay The mouse serum EPO is detected using Mouse Quantikine Erythropoietin ELISA kit from R&D Systems according to manufacturer's instructions.
Mouse tissue HIF Western blot analysis
Tissues from mice stored at -8O0C are powdered with mortar and pestle chilled with liquid nitrogen. Nuclear extracts are prepared using an NE-PER kit (Pierce Biotechnology). For immunoprecipitation, nuclear extract is added to monoclonal antibody to HIF- let (Novus, Littleton, CO) at a tissue to antibody ratio of 200:1. The suspension is incubated in a conical micro centrifuge tube for 4 hours at 4°C. Protein A/G-coupled agarose beads (40 ul of a 50% suspension) are then added to the tube. Following overnight tumbling at 4°C, the beads are washed 3 times with ice-cold phosphate buffered saline. The beads are then prepared for SDS- PAGE with 40 ul of Laemmli sample buffer. Proteins separated on SDS-PAGE are transferred onto nitrocellulose sheets with XCeIl-II Blot Module system (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). The blots are blocked with 5% BSA prior to incubation with a rabbit antibody to HIF- lα at 1 :100 dilution (Novus). The blots are then washed with Tris-buffered saline/Tween-20 buffer and incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody (Pierce, Rockford, IL). Blots are developed with the ECL reagent (Amersham, Piscataway, NJ). Images of blots are captured with an Epson Expression 1600 scanner.
