Definitions
- kinase enzymes are ubiquitous and have therefore been the subject of intensive study.
- the subject of the present invention relates to a specific subgenus of kinase enzymes; Akt kinases and their inhibition as a means for abating cancer.
- Protein kinases have generated considerable interest in the drug discovery community due to their involvement in key cellular processes, such as signal transduction and cell cycle control. 1"4 Being essential elements in pathways that mediate cell growth, cell division and programmed cell death, malfunctioning protein kinases are often responsible for the deregulation of signaling cascades and the oncogenic transformation of cells. The specific inhibition of such disease-related kinases promises to increase cure rates and to reduce toxic side-effects of chemotherapy.
- a central issue that must be addressed in the development of protein kinase-based drugs is target-specificity, 5 ' 6 because of the presence of over 500 protein kinases in the human genome.
- Serine/threonine (Ser/Thr) protein kinase Akt also known as Protein Kinase B (PKB) is involved in the regulation of multiple cellular processes such as glucose metabolism, transcription, apoptosis, cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and cell motility. 10"13 Available data strongly suggests Akt/PKB to be oncogenic, if over-expressed 14 ' 15 or constitutively activated. 16"18 The gain of function in AfVPKB affects two distinct areas of cellular regulation important to cancer, the regulation of apoptosis n ' 16>19"23 and the regulation of cell growth.
- Akt/PKB inhibits apoptosis principally by down-regulating pro-apoptotic proteins like BAD (Bcl-2/Bcl-XL-antagonist, causing cell death), caspase-9 and forkhead transcription factor (FKHR).
- BAD Bcl-2/Bcl-XL-antagonist, causing cell death
- caspase-9 caspase-9
- FKHR forkhead transcription factor
- Cancer cells showing a gain in function of Akt are usually high sensitive to inhibitors of the Pl-3k/Akt signaling pathway, making Akt a promising target for drug development.
- 24 ' 34 ' 56 ' 57 the oncogenic signal from the upstream kinase phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (P1-3K) 25 ' 58 ' 69 travels through Akt, further increasing the importance of Akt as a cancer target.
- P1-3K upstream kinase phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase

- R 5a , R 5b , R 6a , R 6b , R 7a , and R 7b are each independently chosen from: i) hydrogen; ii) substituted or unsubstituted C]-C 6 linear or branched alkyl; iii) substituted or unsubstituted C 6 aryl; iv) substituted or unsubstituted C 6 -Cg arylalkylene; v) -C(O)OR 10 ; or vi) -C(O)NR 113 R 1 lb ;
- R 10 , R l la , and R l lb can each be independently chosen from hydrogen or Ci-C 4 linear or branched alkyl;
- R 8 and R 9 are each independently chosen from: i) -NR 12 -; ii) - NR 12 NR 12 -; iii) -NR 12 C(O)-; iv) -C(O)NR 12 -; v) -C(O)-; vi) -OC(O)-; vii) -C(O)O-; or viii) -S-; and
- R 12 is independently hydrogen or C1-C4 linear or branched alkyl;
- the indices m, n, and p can each be independently from 0 to 6;
- the indices q and r can be each independently 0 or 1.
- compositions which comprise: a) an effective amount of one or more Akt kinase inhibitors or salts thereof as disclosed herein; and b) one or more excipients.
- Disclosed herein are methods for treating cancer comprising administering to a patient in need of treatment an effective amount of one or more compounds as described herein.
- Akt kinase inhibitors Disclosed herein are novel Akt kinase inhibitors, compositions comprising Akt kinase inhibitors, and methods for treating cancer.
- Akt is a serine-threonine kinase and functions as the central component of the PDK activity thus serves to recruit important cellular signaling pathway that starts with PI 3- kinase (PDK) at the plasma membrane.
- Akt has two major functional domains, an N- terminal pleckstrin homology domain that mediates lipid membrane interactions and a C- terminal kinase domain.
- the molecular structure of Akt has been determined.
- the human genome contains three Akt genes, coding for three closely related proteins, Aktl, Akt2, and Akt3.
- the three Akt proteins have overlapping functions and activities but also appear to have specific tasks.
- the pleckstrin homology domain of Akt binds to PIP3, the product of PBK. PBK activity thus serves to recruit Akt to the plasma membrane.
- Akt enzymatic activity of Akt becomes activated by phosphorylation on threonine 308 in the activation loop and serine 47e in the hydrophobic tail.
- the two kinases mediating this activation are PDK-I and DNA-dependent protein kinase. Phosphorylation of Akt induces a conformational change that distinguishes the active from the inactive kinase.
- Akt Akt-activated Akt
- lung caner An important role of Akt in lung caner is suggested by the fact that about 50 percent of all non-small cell lung caners show enhanced expression of phosphorylated Akt and hence a gain in Akt functions. Included in these 50 percent Akt-positive tumors are those with a mutation in the EGF receptor. That mutation has been reported to be responsible for the constitutive activation of the Akt pathway in these tumors and accounts for the 10 percent of lung cancers that respond to treatment with the EGFR inhibitor Gefitinib.
- kinase inhibitors function by blocking the ATP binding domain of the enzyme. Because the ATP binding domains of different kinases can be structurally similar, these inhibitors often suffer from a lack of specificity and have unacceptable side effects.
- the present disclosure relates to the development of Akt inhibitors with high selectivity or high specificity.
- the compounds disclosed herein can provide a solution to the problem of inhibitor specificity through the design and preparation of bivalent ligand inhibitors. One end of the compounds disclosed herein binds to the ATP binding domain while the other end extends into the substrate binding domain.
- the substrate binding domain of each kinase is more specific to that particular kinase and the substrate binding domain of each different kinase is located at different distances away from the respective ATP binding domain.
- the disclosed compounds comprise two separate units; one that can bind to the ATP binding domain and one that can bind to the substrate binding domain. These two units are connected to one another by a linking unit or tether. As discussed herein above, because the distance between these two domains varies from kinase to kinase, the length of the linking unit or tether which connects these two units can be optimized for a particular kinase.
- This fact provides for compounds disclosed herein that can interact with a particular kinase with a high degree of selectivity, as well as specificity.
- the methods disclosed herein provide a means for selecting a unit that can effectively interact with a kinase enzyme ATP binding domain, for selecting a unit that can effectively interact with a kinase enzyme substrate binding domain and for a means of forming a link or tether between the two units thereby forming a compound that can be an effective Akt kinase inhibitor.
