Definitions
- the present invention relates to phenylcyclopropylamine derivatives.
- pharmaceutical compositions comprising phenylcyclopropylamine derivatives are provided.
- the compounds of this invention can, inter alia, be used for the treatment and the prevention of cancer as well as neurodegenerative diseases or disorders.
- Cancer is prevalent: there were about 3.2 million cancer cases diagnosed (53% men, 47% women) and 1.7 million deaths from cancer (56% men, 44% women) in Europe (Ferlay et al. (2007) Ann. Oncol. 18(3):581-92). In the United States, the probability of developing invasive cancer is 38% for females and 46% for males that live to be 70 years older and older. In the US about 1.4 million new cases of cancer are expected for 2006. Although the five year survival rate for cancer is now 65%, up from about 50% in the mid-nineteen seventies, cancer is deadly. It is estimated that 565,000 people in the United States will die from cancer in 2006 (American Cancer Society, Surveillance Research, 2006). Despite tremendous advances in cancer treatment and diagnosis, cancer remains a major public health concern. Accordingly, there is a need for new therapeutics with activity in cancer.
- Alzheimer's disease is the largest neurodegenerative disease; disease modifying drugs have long been sought, but to-date, none have been identified.
- Other neurodegenerative conditions include Parkinson's disease, Huntington ' s disease, Lewy Body dementia, and which are all characterized by disease progression which robs the patients of their ability to perform normal daily activities, eventually leading to death.
- One similar characteristic amongst many cancers and neurodegenerative diseases is aberrant gene expression.
- a number of compounds have been shown to alter gene expression, including histone deacetylase inhibitors which alter the histone acetylation profile of chromatin.
- Histone deacetylase inhibitors have been shown to alter gene expression. Another modification that is involved in regulating gene expression is lysine methylation. Methylation of histone lysines has recently been shown to be important in regulating gene expression. A group of enzymes known as lysine demethylases are involved in this histone modification.
- lysine demethylases One particular human histone lysine demethylase enzyme called Lysine Specific Demethylase-1 (LSDl) was recently discovered (Shi et al. (2004) Cell 1 19:941). LSDl is also involved in regulating the methylation of some non-histone lysines.
- LSDl has a fair degree of structural similarity, and amino acid identity/homology to monoamine oxidases, all of which (i.e., MAO-A, MAO-B and LSDl) are flavin dependent oxidases.
- MAO-A, MAO-B and LSDl are flavin dependent oxidases.
- Recent experiments with LSDl have shown that it is involved in diverse process such as carcinogenesis (Kahl et al. (2006) Cancer Res. 66: 1341-1 1347) and vascular inflammation (Reddy et al. (2008) Circ. Res. 103 :615). It was found that a commercially available antidepressant, Parnate®, which targets monoamine oxidase (MAO), also inhibits LSDl at clinically relevant concentrations (Lee et al. (2006) Chem. Biol.
- Monoamine oxidase inhibitors are useful for treating a number of conditions including depression and neurodegenerative conditions like Parkinson's disease.
- Parnate is part of a class of compounds known as phenylcyclopropylamines which are related to another group of clinical useful MAO inhibitors called propargylamines, exemplified by Pargyline which also inhibits LSDl . Additionally, derivatives of Parnate also can inhibit LSDl (Gooden et al. (2008) Bioorg. Med. Chem. Let. 18:3047-3051). Another class of compounds was recently disclosed to inhibit LSDl activity: polyamines (Huang et al. (2007) PNAS 104:8023-8028).
- LSDl expression is correlated with prostate cancer aggressiveness.

Description
PHENYLCYCLOPROPYLAMINE DERIVATIVES AND THEIR MEDICAL USE
The present invention relates to phenylcyclopropylamine derivatives. In particular, pharmaceutical compositions comprising phenylcyclopropylamine derivatives are provided. The compounds of this invention can, inter alia, be used for the treatment and the prevention of cancer as well as neurodegenerative diseases or disorders.
Cancer is prevalent: there were about 3.2 million cancer cases diagnosed (53% men, 47% women) and 1.7 million deaths from cancer (56% men, 44% women) in Europe (Ferlay et al. (2007) Ann. Oncol. 18(3):581-92). In the United States, the probability of developing invasive cancer is 38% for females and 46% for males that live to be 70 years older and older. In the US about 1.4 million new cases of cancer are expected for 2006. Although the five year survival rate for cancer is now 65%, up from about 50% in the mid-nineteen seventies, cancer is deadly. It is estimated that 565,000 people in the United States will die from cancer in 2006 (American Cancer Society, Surveillance Research, 2006). Despite tremendous advances in cancer treatment and diagnosis, cancer remains a major public health concern. Accordingly, there is a need for new therapeutics with activity in cancer.
Another health crisis is facing industrialized nations. As the population in these countries age, neurodegenerative diseases are affecting more and more people, posing a tremendous economic burden to national health systems. Alzheimer's disease is the largest neurodegenerative disease; disease modifying drugs have long been sought, but to-date, none have been identified. Other neurodegenerative conditions include Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, Lewy Body dementia, and which are all characterized by disease progression which robs the patients of their ability to perform normal daily activities, eventually leading to death.
One similar characteristic amongst many cancers and neurodegenerative diseases is aberrant gene expression. A number of compounds have been shown to alter gene expression, including histone deacetylase inhibitors which alter the histone acetylation profile of chromatin. Histone deacetylase inhibitors have been shown to alter gene expression. Another modification that is involved in regulating gene expression is lysine methylation. Methylation of histone lysines has recently been shown to be important in regulating gene expression. A group of enzymes known as lysine demethylases are involved in this histone modification. One particular human histone lysine demethylase enzyme called Lysine Specific Demethylase-1 (LSDl) was recently discovered (Shi et al. (2004) Cell 1 19:941). LSDl is also involved in regulating the methylation of some non-histone lysines. LSDl has a fair degree of structural similarity, and amino acid identity/homology to monoamine oxidases, all of which (i.e., MAO-A, MAO-B and LSDl) are flavin dependent oxidases. Recent experiments with LSDl have shown that it is involved in diverse process such as carcinogenesis (Kahl et al. (2006) Cancer Res. 66: 1341-1 1347) and vascular inflammation (Reddy et al. (2008) Circ. Res. 103 :615). It was found that a commercially available antidepressant, Parnate®, which targets monoamine oxidase (MAO), also inhibits LSDl at clinically relevant concentrations (Lee et al. (2006) Chem. Biol. 13 :563-567). Lee et al. initially reported that Parnate was a better inhibitor of LSDl than either MAO-A and MAO-B but subsequent study by some of the same authors found "IC50 values for 2-PCPA of 20.7 ± 2.1 μM for LSDl , 2.3 ± 0.2 μM for MAO A, and 0.95 ± 0.07 μM for MAO B." See Schmidt et al. (2007) Biochemistry 46(14)4408-4416. Thus, Parnate (2-PCPA; tranylcypromine) is a better inhibitor of MAO-A and MAO-B as compared to LSDl . Monoamine oxidase inhibitors are useful for treating a number of conditions including depression and neurodegenerative conditions like Parkinson's disease. Parnate is part of a class of compounds known as phenylcyclopropylamines which are related to another group of clinical useful MAO inhibitors called propargylamines, exemplified by Pargyline which also inhibits LSDl . Additionally, derivatives of Parnate also can inhibit LSDl (Gooden et al. (2008) Bioorg. Med. Chem. Let. 18:3047-3051). Another class of compounds was recently disclosed to inhibit LSDl activity: polyamines (Huang et al. (2007) PNAS 104:8023-8028). The polyamines inhibit LSDl modestly and were shown to cause the reexpression of genes aberrantly silenced in cancer cells.
Lee et al. ((2006) Chem. Biol. 13 :563-567) reported that tranylcypromine inhibits histone H3K4 demethylation and can derepress Egrl gene expression in some cancer lines. A body of evidence is accumatling that Egr-1 is a tumor suppressor gene in many contexts. Calogero et al((2004) Cancer Cell International 4: 1) reported that Egr-1 is downregulated in brain cancers and exogenous expression of Egr-1 resulted in growth arrest and eventual cell death in primary cancer cell lines. Lucerna et al. ((2006) Cancer Research 66, 6708-6713) showed that sustained expression of Egr-1 causes antiangiogeneic effects and inhibits tumor growth in some models. Ferraro et al ((2005) J Clin Oncol. Mar 20;23(9): 1921-6) reported that Egr-1 is downregulated in lung cancer patients with a higher risk of recurrence and may be more resistant to therapy. Scoumanne et al. ((2007) J Biol Chem. May 25;282(21): 15471-5) observed that LSDl is required for cell proliferation. They found that deficiency in LSDl leads to a partial cell cycle arrest in G2/M and sensitizes cells to growth suppression induced by DNA damage. Kahl et al ((2006) Cancer Res. 66(23): 11341-7) found that LSDl expression is correlated with prostate cancer aggressiveness. Metzger et al. ((2005) Nature 15;437(7057):436-9) reported that LSDl modulation by siRNA and pargyline regulates androgen receptor (AR) and may have therapeutic potential in cancers where AR plays a role, like prostate, testis, and brain cancers. Thus, a body of evidence has implicated LSDl in a number of cancers, which suggestes that LSD l is a therapeutic target for cancer.
The phenylcyclopropylamines have been the subject of many studies designed to elucidate an SAR for MAO inhibition. Kaiser et al. ((1962) J. Med. Chem. 5: 1243- 1265) and Zirkle et al. ((1962) J. Med. Chem. 1265-1284) have disclosed the synthesis and activity of a number of phenylcyclopropylamine related compounds. Zirkle et al. ((1962) J. Med. Chem. 1265-1284) reported that mono- and disubstitution of the amino group of trans-2-phenylcyclopropylamine with methyl decreases the activity only slightly whereas monosubstitution with larger groups like alkyl and aralkyl groups results in considerable loss of activity in the tryptamine potentiation assay for MAO activity. Studies have also been conducted with phenylcyclopropylamine related compounds to determine selectivity for MAO-A versus MAO-B since MAO-A inhibitors can cause dangerous side-effects (see e.g.,
Yoshida et al. (2004) Bioorg. Med Chem. 12(10):2645-2652; Hruschka et al. (2008) Biorg Med Chem. (16):7148-7166; Folks et al. (1983) J. Clin. Psychopharmacol. (3)249; and Youdim et al. (1983) Mod. Probl. Pharmacopsychiatry (19):63). Other phenylcyclopropylamine type compounds are disclosed in Bolesov et al ((1974) Zhurnal Organicheskoi Khimii 10:8 1661-1669) and Russian Patent No. 230169 (19681030). Gooden et al. ((2008) Bioorg. Med. Chem. Let. 18:3047-3051) describe the synthesis of phenylcyclopropylamine derivatives and analogs as well as their activity against MAO-A, MAO-B, and LSDl . None of the compounds made in Gooden et al. showed a lower Ki for LSDl as compared to either MAO-A or MAO- B. Additionally, most of the Gooden et al. phenylcyclopropylamine derivatives were better inhibitors of MAO-A as compared to MAO-B. Recently, Han et al. (Euro. J. Pharma. (2008) doi: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2008.12.025) reported that phenylcyclopropylamine displays neuroprotective activity in PC 12 cells.
Phenylcyclopropylamine derivatives are also disclosed in US-A-3, 106,578, US-A-6,21 1 ,244, US-A-2003/236225, WO 03/093297, WO 2007/025144, and in Westland RD, et al. J Med Chem. 1968. 11 (4): 824-829.
In view of the lack of adequate treatments for conditions such as cancer and neurodegeneration, there is a desperate need for disease modifying drugs and drugs that work by inhibiting novel targets. There is a need for the development of LSDl selective inhibitors particularly those which selectively inhibit LSDl and those which are dual inhibitors of MAO-B/LSD1.
This problem is solved by the embodiments of the present invention as characterized herein below, in the appended examples and the claims.

Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. Although methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of the present invention, suitable methods and materials are described below. In case of conflict, the present specification, including definitions, will control. In addition, the materials, methods, and examples are illustrative only and not intended to be limiting.
Other features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following detailed description, and from the claims.
The present invention relates to compounds, the identification of compounds and their use for treating and/or preventing diseases. The present invention provides compounds of Formula I, pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of
Formula I and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and their use for treating and/or preventing diseases. One use of the compounds of Formula I is to treat and/or prevent cancer. Compounds of the invention also inhibit monoamine oxidases, and can therefore be used for treating and/or preventing a disease in which monoamine oxidase inhibition is useful. Some compounds of Formula I can be used as LSDl selective inhibitors that inhibit LSDl to a greater extent than MAO-A and/or MAO- B. Some compounds of Formula I can be used as dual LSD1/MAO-B selective inhibitors that inhibit LSD l and MAO-B to a greater extent than MAO-A. Some of the compounds of Formula I can be used as inhibitors of MAO-A, MAO-B and LSDl . In particular it was surprisingly found that phenylcyclopropylamine derivatives with monosubstitution on the amine group with ring bearing substituents yields compounds with unexpectedly potent LSDl inhibition. For example, some of the compounds of Formula I have IC50 values for LSDl inhibition of less than 1 micromolar (see Table 1 ) which makes them at least 20-30-fold more potent than tranylcypromine for LSDl inhibition. Furthermore, these types of compounds also are potent inhibitors of the monoamine oxidases.

Previous reports of LSDl have found that it is involved in cell proliferation and growth. Some studies have implicated LSDl as a therapeutic target for cancer. Huang et al. (2007) PNAS 104:8023-8028 found that polyamines inhibitors of LSD l modestly cause the reexpression of genes aberrantly silenced in cancer cells and particularly colorectal cancer (Huang et al. Clin Cancer Res. (2009) Dec l ; 15(23):7217-28. Epub 2009 Nov 24. PMID: 19934284). Scoumanne et al ((2007) J. Biol. Chem. May 25;282(21): 15471-5) found that deficiency in LSDl leads to a partial cell cycle arrest in G2/M and sensitizes cells to growth suppression induced by DNA damage. Kahl et al. ((2006) Cancer Res. 66(23): 11341 -7.) found that LSDl expression is correlated with prostate cancer aggressiveness. Metzger et al. reported that LSDl modulation by siRNA and pargyline regulates androgen receptor (AR) and may have therapeutic potential in cancers where AR plays a role, like prostate, testis, and brain cancers. Lee et al. ((2006) Chem. Biol. 13 :563-567) reported that tranylcypromine derepresses Egr-1 gene expression in some cancer lines. A body of evidence is accumlating that Egr-1 is a tumor suppressor gene in many contexts (see e.g., Calogero el al. (2004) Cancer Cell International 4: 1 exogenous expression of EGR-1 resulted in growth arrest and eventual cell death in primary cancer cell lines; Lucerna et al. (2006) Cancer Research 66, 6708-6713 show that sustained expression of Egr-1 causes antiangiogeneic effects and inhibits tumor growth in some models; Ferraro et al. ((2005) J. Clin. Oncol. Mar 20;23(9): 1921 -6) reported that Egr-1 is downregulated in lung cancer patients with a higher risk of recurrence and may be more resistant to to therapy. Thus, increasing Egr-1 expression via inhibition of LSDl is a therapeutic approach for some cancers. Recent studies have also implicated LSD l in brain cancer (Schulte et al. (2009) Cancer Res. Mar l ;69(5):2065-71). Other studies have implicated LSD l in breast cancer (Lims et al. Carcinogenesis. 2009 Dec 30. [Epub ahead of print] PMID: 20042638).
Thus, a body of evidence has implicated LSD l in a number of cancers, which suggests that LSD l is a therapeutic target for cancer. The instant inventors have discovered a class of LSDl inhibitors that can be used to treat diseases where LSDl is implicated as a therpautic target like cancer. Accordingly, the phenylcyclopropylamine compounds of the invention can be used to treat and/or prevent such diseases.
As the skilled artisan readily recognizes the compounds disclosed herein are surprisingly and significantly more potent than tranylcypromine for LSDl inhibition. Han et al. (Euro. J. Pharma. (2008) doi: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2008.12.025) reported that phenylcyclopropylamine displays neuroprotective activity in PC 12 cells thus the compounds of Formula I may be used as a neuroprotectant (e.g., used to treat and/or prevent conditions characterized by neurodegeneration). Furthermore, since the compounds of Formula I are potent LSDl inhibitor they can be used to treat and/or prevent diseases where LSDl inhibition is desirable, e.g., cancer.
Without being bound by theory, it is believed that compounds provided herein are particularly useful in the treatment and/or prevention of cancer because they interfere with LSDl activity (i.e. inhibit LSDl activity), wherein LSDl activity is part of a metabolic mechanism specifically involved in cancer as described elsewhere herein. Potent LSD l inhibitors to be used in the treatment of cancer are shown in Table 1 , wherein compounds with a low IC50 value (in particular compounds having a lower IC50 value than the prior art compound parnate) are preferred.
Furthermore, and without being bound by theory, dual MAO-B/LSD1 inhibitors provided herein are thought of interfering with a mechanism involved in neurodegenerative diseases. Accordingly, compounds that potently inhibit both MAO-B and LSDl activity are preferred in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. Exemplary compounds in this context are shown in Table 1 , wherein compounds with a low IC50 value (in particular compounds having a lower IC50 value than the prior art compound parnate) are preferred.
Also compounds that inhibit both MAO A/B acitivy and LSDl activity are envisaged herein in the treatment of diseases, in particular neurodegenerative diseases, wherein compounds that inhibit LSDl activity more potently than parnate are preferred.

For example, a symptom can be measured as the amount of particular disease marker, i.e., a protein. In another example the symptom can be cognitive decline. Preventing an increase, according to the definition provided herein, means that the amount of symptom {e.g., protein or cognitive decline) does not increase or that the rate at which it increases is reduced.
As used herein, the term "treating a disease or disorder" refers to a slowing of or a reversal of the progress of the disease. Treating a disease or disorder includes treating a symptom and/or reducing the symptoms of the disease.
As used herein, the term "preventing a disease or disorder" refers to a slowing of the disease or of the onset of the disease or the symptoms thereof. Preventing a disease or disorder can include stopping the onset of the disease or symptoms thereof. As used herein, the term "unit dosage form" refers to a physically discrete unit, such as a capsule or tablet suitable as a unitary dosage for a human patient. Each unit contains a predetermined quantity of a compound of Formula I, which was discovered or believed to produce the desired pharmacokinetic profile which yields the desired therapeutic effect. The dosage unit is composed of a compound of Formula I in association with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, salt, excipient, or combination thereof.

The meaning of the terms "eukaryote", "animal", "mammal", etc. is well known in the art and can, for example, be deduced from Wehner und Gehring (1995; Thieme Verlag). In the context of this invention, it is particularly envisaged that animals are to be treated which are economically, agronomically or scientifically important. Scientifically important organisms include, but are not limited to, mice, rats, rabbits, fruit flies like Drosophila melagonaster and nematodes like Caenorhabditis elegans. Non-limiting examples of agronomically important animals are sheep, cattle and pig, while, for example, cats and dogs may be considered as economically important animals. Preferably, the subject/patient is a mammal; more preferably, the subject/patient is a human.
As used herein, the term "dose" or "dosage" refers the amount of active ingredient that an individual takes or is administered at one time. For example, a 40 mg dose of a compound of Formula I refers to, in the case of a twice-daily dosage regimen, a situation where the individual takes 40 mg of a compound of Formula I twice a day, e.g., 40 mg in the morning and 40 mg in the evening. The 40 mg of a compound of Formula I dose can be divided into two or more dosage units, e.g., two 20 mg dosage
units of a compound of Formula I in tablet form or two 20 mg dosage units of a compound of Formula I in capsule form.
As used herein, a "pharmaceutically acceptable prodrug" is a compound that may be converted under physiological conditions or by solvolysis to the specified compound or to a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of such compound.
As used herein, a "pharmaceutically active metabolite" is intended to mean a pharmacologically active product produced through metabolism in the body of a specified compound or salt thereof. Metabolites of a compound may be identified using routine techniques known in the art and their activities determined using tests such as those described herein.
As used herein, a "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" is intended to mean a salt that retains the biological effectiveness of the free acids and bases of the specified compound and that is not biologically or otherwise undesirable. A compound for use in the invention may possess a sufficiently acidic, a sufficiently basic, or both functional groups, and accordingly react with any of a number of inorganic or organic bases, and inorganic and organic acids, to form a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. Exemplary pharmaceutically acceptable salts include those salts prepared by reaction of the compounds of the present invention with a mineral or organic acid or an inorganic base, such as salts including sulfates, pyrosulfates, bisulfates, sulfites, bisulfites, phosphates, monohydrophosphates, dihydrophosphates, metaphosphates, pyrophosphates, chlorides, bromides, iodides, acetates, propionates, decanoates, caprylates, acrylates, formates, isobutyrates, caproates, heptanoates, propiolates, oxalates, malonates, succinates, suberates, sebacates, fumarates, maleates, butyne-1 ,4 dioates, hexyne-l,6-dioates, benzoates, chlorobenzoates, methylbenzoates, dinitrobenzoates, hydroxybenzoates, methoxybenzoates, phthalates, sulfonates, xylenesulfonates, phenylacetates, phenylpropionates, phenylbutyrates, citrates, lactates, gamma-hydroxybutyrates, glycollates, tartrates, methane-sulfonates, propanesulfonates, naphthalene- 1 - sulfonates, naphthalene-2-sulfonates, and mandelates.
As used herein, a "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" refers to a non-API (API refers to Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) substances such as disintegrators, binders, fillers, and lubricants used in formulating pharmaceutical products. They are generally safe for administering to humans according to established governmental standards, including those promulgated by the United States Food and Drug Administration and the European Medical Agency.
As is understood by the skilled artisan, certain variables in the list of substituents are repetitive (different name for the same substituent), generic to other terms in the list, and/or partially overlap in content with other terms. In the compounds of the invention, the skilled artisan recognizes that substituents may be attached to the remainder of the molecule via a number of positions and the preferred positions are as illustrated in the Examples.
Additionally, the compounds of Formula I can contain asymmetric carbon atoms and can therefore exist in racemic and optically active forms. Thus, optical isomers or enantiomers, racemates, tautomers, and diastereomers are also encompassed in the compounds of Formula I in all embodiments described herein. The methods of the present invention include the use of all such isomers and mixtures thereof. Methods of separation of enantiomeric and diastereomeric mixtures are well known to one skilled in the art. The present invention encompasses any isolated racemic or optically active form of compounds described in Formula I, or any mixture thereof. In one aspect, the compounds of the invention have a trans configuration around the cyclopropyl ring as in trans-phenylcyclopropylamine. In one aspect, the compounds of the invention have a cis configuration around the cyclopropyl ring as in cis- phenylcyclopropylamine.
Typically, compounds according to Formula I can be effective at an amount of from about 0.01 μg/kg to about 100 mg/kg per day based on total body weight. The active ingredient may be administered at once, or may be divided into a number of smaller doses to be administered at predetermined intervals of time. The suitable dosage unit for each administration can be, e.g., from about 1 μg to about 2000 mg, preferably from about 5 μg to about 1000 mg.
It should be understood that the dosage ranges set forth above are exemplary only and are not intended to limit the scope of this invention. The therapeutically effective amount for each active compound can vary with factors including but not limited to the activity of the compound used, stability of the active compound in the patient's body, the severity of the conditions to be alleviated, the total weight of the patient treated, the route of administration, the ease of absorption, distribution, and excretion of the active compound by the body, the age and sensitivity of the patient to be treated, and the like, as will be apparent to a skilled artisan. The amount of administration can be adjusted as the various factors change over time.
For oral delivery, the active compounds can be incorporated into a formulation that includes pharmaceutically acceptable carriers such as binders (e.g., gelatin, cellulose, gum tragacanth), excipients (e.g., starch, lactose), lubricants (e.g., magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide), disintegrating agents (e.g., alginate, Primogel, and corn starch), and sweetening or flavoring agents (e.g., glucose, sucrose, saccharin, methyl salicylate, and peppermint). The formulation can be orally delivered in the form of enclosed gelatin capsules or compressed tablets. Capsules and tablets can be prepared in any conventional techniques. The capsules and tablets can also be coated with various coatings known in the art to modify the flavors, tastes, colors, and shapes of the capsules and tablets. In addition, liquid carriers such as fatty oil can also be included in capsules.
Suitable oral formulations can also be in the form of suspension, syrup, chewing gum, wafer, elixir, and the like. If desired, conventional agents for modifying flavors, tastes, colors, and shapes of the special forms can also be included. In addition, for convenient administration by enteral feeding tube in patients unable to swallow, the active compounds can be dissolved in an acceptable lipophilic vegetable oil vehicle such as olive oil, corn oil and safflower oil.
The active compounds can also be administered parenterally in the form of solution or suspension, or in lyophilized form capable of conversion into a solution or suspension form before use. In such formulations, diluents or pharmaceutically
acceptable carriers such as sterile water and physiological saline buffer can be used. Other conventional solvents, pH buffers, stabilizers, anti-bacteria agents, surfactants, and antioxidants can all be included. For example, useful components include sodium chloride, acetates, citrates or phosphates buffers, glycerin, dextrose, fixed oils, methyl parabens, polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, sodium bisulfate, benzyl alcohol, ascorbic acid, and the like. The parenteral formulations can be stored in any conventional containers such as vials and ampoules.
Routes of topical administration include nasal, bucal, mucosal, rectal, or vaginal applications. For topical administration, the active compounds can be formulated into lotions, creams, ointments, gels, powders, pastes, sprays, suspensions, drops and aerosols. Thus, one or more thickening agents, humectants, and stabilizing agents can be included in the formulations. Examples of such agents include, but are not limited to, polyethylene glycol, sorbitol, xanthan gum, petrolatum, beeswax, or mineral oil, lanolin, squalene, and the like. A special form of topical administration is delivery by a transdermal patch. Methods for preparing transdermal patches are disclosed, e.g., in Brown, et al. (1988) Ann. Rev. Med. 39:221 -229 which is incorporated herein by reference.
Subcutaneous implantation for sustained release of the active compounds may also be a suitable route of administration. This entails surgical procedures for implanting an active compound in any suitable formulation into a subcutaneous space, e.g., beneath the anterior abdominal wall. See, e.g., Wilson et al. (1984) J. Clin. Psych. 45:242-247. Hydrogels can be used as a carrier for the sustained release of the active compounds. Hydrogels are generally known in the art. They are typically made by crosslinking high molecular weight biocompatible polymers into a network, which swells in water to form a gel like material. Preferably, hydrogels are biodegradable or biosorbable. For purposes of this invention, hydrogels made of polyethylene glycols, collagen, or poly(glycolic-co-L-lactic acid) may be useful. See, e.g., Phillips et al. (1984) J. Pharmaceut. ScL, 73 : 1718-1720.
The active compounds can also be conjugated, to a water soluble non- immunogenic non-peptidic high molecular weight polymer to form a polymer conjugate. For
example, an active compound is covalently linked to polyethylene glycol to form a conjugate. Typically, such a conjugate exhibits improved solubility, stability, and reduced toxicity and immunogenicity. Thus, when administered to a patient, the active compound in the conjugate can have a longer half-life in the body, and exhibit better efficacy. See generally, Burnham (1994) Am. J. Hosp. Pharm. 15 :210-218. PEGylated proteins are currently being used in protein replacement therapies and for other therapeutic uses. For example, PEGylated interferon (PEG-INTRON A®) is clinically used for treating Hepatitis B. PEGylated adenosine deaminase (ADAGEN®) is being used to treat severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCIDS). PEGylated L-asparaginase (ONCAPSPAR®) is being used to treat acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It is preferred that the covalent linkage between the polymer and the active compound and/or the polymer itself is hydrolytically degradable under physiological conditions. Such conjugates known as "prodrugs" can readily release the active compound inside the body. Controlled release of an active compound can also be achieved by incorporating the active ingredient into microcapsules, nanocapsules, or hydrogels generally known in the art. Other pharmaceutically acceptable prodrugs of the compounds of this invention include, but are not limited to, esters, carbonates, thiocarbonates, N-acyl derivatives, N- acyloxyalkyl derivatives, quaternary derivatives of tertiary amines, N-Mannich bases, Schiff bases, aminoacid conjugates, phosphate esters, metal salts and sulfonate esters.
Liposomes can also be used as carriers for the active compounds of the present invention. Liposomes are micelles made of various lipids such as cholesterol, phospholipids, fatty acids, and derivatives thereof. Various modified lipids can also be used. Liposomes can reduce the toxicity of the active compounds, and increase their stability. Methods for preparing liposomal suspensions containing active ingredients therein are generally known in the art. See, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 4,522,81 1 ; Prescott, Ed., Methods in Cell Biology, Volume XIV, Academic Press, New York, N. Y. (1976).
The active compounds can also be administered in combination with another active agent that synergistically treats or prevents the same symptoms or is effective for another disease or symptom in the patient treated so long as the other active agent
does not interfere with or adversely affect the effects of the active compounds of this invention. Such other active agents include but are not limited to anti-inflammation agents, antiviral agents, antibiotics, antifungal agents, antithrombotic agents, cardiovascular drugs, cholesterol lowering agents, anti-cancer drugs, hypertension drugs, and the like.
Examples of antineoplastic agents that can be used in combination with the compounds and methods of the present invention include, in general, and as appropriate, alkylating agents, anti-metabolites, epidophyllotoxins, antineoplastic enzymes, topoisomerase inhibitors, procarbazines, mitoxantrones, platinum coordination complexes, biological response modifiers and growth inhibitors, hormonal/anti-hormonal therapeutic agents and haematopoietic growth factors. Exemplary classes of antineoplastic include the anthracyclines, vinca drugs, mitomycins, bleomycins, cytotoxic nucleosides, epotbilones, discodermolides, pteridines, diynenes and podophyllotoxins. Particularly useful members of those classes include, for example, carminomycin, daunorubicin, aminopterin, methotrexate, methopterin, dichloromethotrexate, mitomycin C, porfiromycin, 5- fluorouracil, 6-mercaptopurine, gemcitabine, cytosine arabinoside, podophyllotoxin or podo-phyllotoxin derivatives such as etoposide, etoposide phosphate or teniposide, melphalan, vinblastine, vincristine, leurosidine, vindesine, leurosine, paclitaxel and the like. Other useful antineoplastic agents include estramustine, carboplatin, cyclophosphamide, bleomycin, gemcitibine, ifosamide, melphalan, hexamethyl melamine, thiotepa, cytarabin, idatrexate, trimetrexate, dacarbazine, L- asparaginase, camptothecin, CPT-I l , topotecan, ara-C, bicalutamide, flutamide, leuprolide, pyridobenzoindole derivatives, interferons and interleukins.
General Synthetic Route Description
The compounds of Formula (I), in which Rl , R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 and R7 represent a hydrogen atom and R8 represents an optionally substituted aryl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclic group can be synthesized by the general route described in the scheme
(H) (IV)
Scheme 1
Commercially available trans-Phenylcyclopropylamine (ALDRICH) of Formula (II) is reductively akyiated using commercially available aldehydes of Formula (III) R8CHO, in which R8 is as defined earlier (e.g., in the markush groups described above), to give the compounds of Formula (IV), which are a particular case of the compounds claimed in the present invention.
The procedures for preparing the compounds of Formula (I), e.g., where the phenyl ring of the phenylcyclopropylamine core is substituted (in this scheme with a benzyloxy moiety; other moieities substituting the phenyl ring of the phenylcyclopropylamine core can be used as is recognized by the skilled artisan) are exemplified in Scheme 2.
Scheme 2
Cyclopropanation reaction of commercially available nitroolefin derivatives of Formula (V) using trimethylsulfoxonium iodide gives derivatives of Formula (VI). Reduction of the nitro group by zinc, followed by protection, with Boc, of the
resulting amino group by tertbutyloxycarbonyl leads to the derivatives of Formula (VII). These derivatives were alkylated using a base and an alkylating reagent of Formula (VIII), where R8 is as defined before and X represents a halogen atom (e.g., -Cl or -Br). Deprotection of the Boc group using sulfuric acid affords the derivatives of Formula (IX), which are specific examples of the compounds of Formula (I).
Compounds of Formula (I), in which Rl , R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6 represent a hydrogen atom, R7 represents alkyl or cycloalkyl and R8 represents an optionally substituted aryl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclic group can be synthesized by the general route described in the scheme 3.
(!I) (Xl) Scheme 3
Commercially available trans-phenylcyclopropylamine (ALDRICH) of Formula (II) is reductively alkylated using commercially available ketones of Formula (X), in which R7 and R8 are as defined earlier, to give the compounds of Formula (XI), which are also subjects of the present invention.
Compounds of Formula (I), where Rl to R5 may be different than a hydrogen and R8 represents an optionally substituted oxadiazole can be synthesized by the general route described in the scheme 4.

The trans phenylcyclopropylammo derivatives of formula (XIV) (including trans ((1S, 2R), (IR, 2S)) version as well the individual diastereoisomers corresponding to (IS, 2R) and (IR, 2S) can be used) are reacted with methyl 2-bromoacetate in acetonitπle usmg N,N-dnsopropylethylamme as a base to give methyl 2-((trans)-2- phenylcyclopropylamino)acetate derivatives of formula (XVI) Hydrolysis with lithium hydroxide using tetrahydrofurane-water solution as a solvent and later reaction with t-butyl dicarbonate in tetrahydrofurane leads to 2-(tert- butoxycarbonyl((trans)-2-phenylcyclopropy])amino)acetic acid derivatives of formula (XVII), which are reacted with commercially available formamidoxime derivatives of formula (XVIII) and l-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylammopropyl)carbodnmide
in diglyme to obtain tert-butyl (l ,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)methyl((trans)-2- phenylcyclopropyl)carbamate derivatives of formula (XIX). Final Boc-deprotection using HCl 2M in diethyl ether using diethyl ether as a solvent leads to the formation of the corresponding hydrochloride salt of the (trans)-N-((l ,2,4-oxadiazol-5- yl)methyl)-2-phenylcyclopropanamine derivatives of formula (XX), which are also subjects of the present invention.
The compounds in the examples below can be synthesized using these procedures described above or modifications thereof by an ordinary artisan skilled in the art of synthetic organic chemistry.

Example 80: Biological Assays - LSDl
The compounds of the invention can be tested for their ability to inhibit LSD l . The ability of the compounds of the invention to inhibit LSDl can be tested as follows. Human recombinant LSDl protein was purchased from BPS Bioscience Inc. In order to monitor LSDl enzymatic activity and/or its inhibition rate by our inhibitor(s) of interest, di-methylated H3-K4 peptide (Millipore) was chosen as a substrate. The demethylase activity was estimated, under aerobic conditions, by measuring the release of H2O2 produced during the catalytic process, using the Amplex® Red pεroxide/peroxidase-coupled assay kit (Invitrogen).
Briefly, a fixed amount of LSDl was incubated on ice for 15 minutes, in the absence and/or in the presence of various concentrations of inhibitor (from 0 to 75 μM, depending on the inhibitor strength). Tranylcypromine (Biomol International) was used as a control for inhibition. Within the experiment, each concentration of inhibitor was tested in triplicate. After leaving the enzyme interacting with the inhibitor, 12.5 μM of di-methylated H3-K4 peptide was added to each reaction and the experiment was left for 1 hour at 370C in the dark. The enzymatic reactions were set up in a 50 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.4 buffer. At the end of the incubation, Amplex® Red reagent and horseradish peroxidase (HPR) solution were added to the reaction according to the recommendations provided by the supplier (Invitrogen), and left to incubate for 30 extra minutes at room temperature in the dark. A 1 μM H2O2 solution was used as a control of the kit efficiency. The conversion of the Amplex® Red reagent to resorufin due to the presence of H2O2 in the assay, was monitored by fluorescence (excitation at 540 nm, emission at 590 nm) using a microplate reader (Infinite 200, Tecan). Arbitrary units were used to measure level Of H2O2 produced in the absence and/or in the presence of inhibitor.
The maximum demethylase activity of LSDl was obtained in the absence of inhibitor and corrected for background fluorescence in the absence of LSDl . The Ki of each inhibitor was estimated at half of the maximum activity.
A number of the compounds of the invention were tested for their ability to inhibit LSDl and were found to have Ki values lower than 100 μM, including many of the compounds in examples that were tested. Compound of examples 3 and 17, were found to have Ki values for LSDl of less than 10 μM. Compounds of examples 1 , 8, 9, 11 were found to have Ki values for LSDl of less than 1 micromolar. Parnate (2- trans phenylcyclopropylamine) was found to have a Ki of from about 15 to 35 micromolar depending on the enzyme preparation.
Previous studies reported in the literature indicated that substitutions on the amine group of phenylcyclopropylamines reduced the ability of the compound to inhibit monoamine oxidases, which have significant structural homology to LSDl . For example Zirkle et al. ((1962) J. Med. Chem. 1265-1284) found that a methyl substituent on the amine group decreased activity slightly whereas substitution with larger alkyl groups and groups bearing ring ring system like aralkyls reduced MAO activity substantially. The inventors of the instant invention have surprisingly found that ring bearing substitutions on the amine group of phenylcyclopropyl amine produce potent LSDl inhibitors.
Previous reports of LSDl have found that it is involved in cell proliferation and growth. Some studies have implicated LSDl as a therapeutic target for cancer. Huang et al. (2007) PNAS 104:8023-8028 found that polyamines inhibitors of LSDl modestly cause the reexpression of genes aberrantly silenced in cancer cells and particularly colorectal cancer (Huang et al. Clin Cancer Res. (2009) Dec l ; 15(23):7217-28. Epub 2009 Nov 24. PMID: 19934284). Scoumanne et al. ((2007) J. Biol. Chem. May 25;282(21): 15471 -5) found that deficiency in LSD l leads to a partial cell cycle arrest in G2/M and sensitizes cells to growth suppression induced by DNA damage. Kahl et al. ((2006) Cancer Res. 66(23): 11341 -7.) found that LSDl expression is correlated with prostate cancer aggressiveness. Metzger et al. reported that LSDl modulation by siRNA and pargyline regulates androgen receptor (AR) and may have therapeutic potential in cancers where AR plays a role, like prostate, testis, and brain cancers. Lee et al ((2006) Chem. Biol. 13 :563-567) reported that tranylcypromine derepresses Egr-1 gene expression in some cancer lines. A body of
evidence is accumlating that Egr-1 is a tumor suppressor gene in many contexts (see e.g., Calogero et al. (2004) Cancer Cell International 4: 1 exogenous expression of EGR-I resulted in growth arrest and eventual cell death in primary cancer cell lines; Lucerna et al. (2006) Cancer Research 66, 6708-6713 show that sustained expression of Egr-1 causes antiangiogeneic effects and inhibits tumor growth in some models; Ferraro et al. ((2005) J. Clin. Oncol. Mar 20;23(9): 1921-6) reported that Egr-1 is downregulated in lung cancer patients with a higher risk of recurrence and may be more resistant to to therapy. Thus, increasing Egr-1 expression via inhibition of LSDl is a therapeutic approach for some cancers. Recent studies have also implicated LSDl in brain cancer (Schulte et al. (2009) Cancer Res. Mar l ;69(5):2065-71 ). Other studies have implicated LSD l in breast cancer (Lims et al. Carcinogenesis. 2009 Dec 30. [Epub ahead of print] PMID: 20042638).
Thus, a body of evidence has implicated LSD l in a number of cancers, which suggests that LSDl is a therapeutic target for cancer. The instant inventors have discovered a class of LSD l inhibitors that can be used to treat diseases where LSDl is implicated as a therpautic target like cancer. According, the phenylcyclopropylamine compounds of the invention can be used to treat and/or prevent such diseases.
Example 81 : Biological Assays - Monoamine Oxidase Assays
Human recombinant monoamine oxidase proteins MAO-A and MAO-B were purchased from Sigma Aldrich. MAOs catalyze the oxidative deamination of 1°, 2° and 3° amines. In order to monitor MAO enzymatic activities and/or their inhibition rate by inhibitor(s) of interest, a fluorescent-based (inhibitor)-screening assay was set up. 3-(2-Aminophenyl)-3- oxopropamamine (kynuramine dihydrobromide, Sigma Aldrich), a non fluorescent compound was chosen as a substrate. Kynuramine is a non-specific substrate for both MAOs activities. While undergoing oxidative deamination by MAO activities, kynuramine is converted into 4-hydroxyquinoline (4-HQ), a resulting fluorescent product.
The monoamine oxidase activity was estimated by measuring the conversion of kynuramine into 4-hydroxyquinoline. Assays were conducted in 96-well black plates with clear bottom
(Corning) in a final volume of 100 μL. The assay buffer was 100 mM HEPES, pH 7.5. Each experiment was performed in triplicate within the same experiment.
Briefly, a fixed amount of MAO (0.25 μg for MAO-A and 0.5 μg for MAO-B) was incubated on ice for 15 minutes in the reaction buffer, in the absence and/or in the presence of various concentrations of inhibitor (from 0 to 50 μM, depending on the inhibitor strength). Tranylcypromine (Biomol International) was used as a control for inhibition.
After leaving the enzyme(s) interacting with the inhibitor, 60 to 90 μM of kynuramine was added to each reaction for MAO-B and MAO-A assay respectively, and the reaction was left for 1 hour at 37°C in the dark. The oxidative deamination of the substrate was stopped by adding 50 μL (v/v) of NaOH 2N. The conversion of kynuramine to 4-hydroxyquinoline, was monitored by fluorescence (excitation at 320 nm, emission at 360 nm) using a microplate reader (Infinite 200, Tecan). Arbitrary units were used to measure levels of fluorescence produced in the absence and/or in the presence of inhibitor.
The maximum of oxidative deamination activity was obtained by measuring the amount of 4- hydroxyquinoline formed from kynuramine deamination in the absence of inhibitor and corrected for background fluorescence in the absence of MAO enzymes. The Ki of each inhibitor was measure at Vmax/2.
Using the above described assay a number of the compounds of the invention were tested for their ability to inhibit MAO-B and were found to have Ki values lower than 100 μM, including many of the compounds in examples tested. Compound of examples 1 , 4, 16, 1 1 , and 17 were found to have Ki (IC50) values for MAO-B of less than 100 μM. Trans-2- phenylcyclopropylamine (tranylcypromine) was found to have a Ki for MAO-A of about 2 micromolar and a Ki of about 0.6 micromolar for MAO-B.
Previous reports in the literature (Zirkle et al. (1962) J. Med. Chem. 1265-1284) indicated that substitutions on the amine group of phenylcyclopropylamine with small alkyl groups like methyl reduce MAO inhibitory activity slightly whereas disubstitution of the amine with methyl or mono substitution with larger ring bearing
substituents like benzyl reduce MAO inhibitory activity substantially. The inventors of the instant invention found that larger ring bearing substituents on the amine group of phenylcyclopropylamine could produce potent inhibitors of monoamine oxidases and particularly MAO-B.
A number of the compounds of the invention were tested for their ability to inhibit MAO-A using the above described assay and were found to have Ki values for MAO-A higher than that for MAO-B (i.e., inhibit MAO-B better than MAO-A) e.g., like the compounds of Examples 11 and 13 which both a better MAO-B inhbititors than MAO-A inhbitors which MAO-B IC50 values below 50 micromolar.
Thus, unexpectedly compounds having large ring bearing substituents on the amine group of phenylcyclopropylamine were found to be potent LSDl inhibitors as well as potent MAO-B inhibitors.
The invention therefore provides inhibitors selective for LSDl . LSDl selective inhibitors have IC50 values for LSDl which are at least 2-fold lower than the IC50 value for MAO-A and/or MAO-B. One example of an LSDl selective inhibitor is given in Example 2 which has an IC50 for LSD l which is about 10-fold lower than for MAO-A and MAO-B. Another example of an LSDl selective inhibitor is in Example 16 which has an IC50 for LSDl which is more than 5-fold lower than the IC50 for MAO-A and MAO-B. Yet another example of a selective LSDl inhibitor is given in Example 17 which has an IC50 which is more than 3-fold lower for LSDl than MAO-A and MAO-B.
The invention also provides dual inhibitors selective for LSDl and MAO-B. Dual LSD1/MAO-B selective inhibitors have IC50 values for LSDl and MAO-B which are at least 2-fold lower than the IC50 value for MAO-A. One example of a dual LSD1/MA0-B selective inhibitor is given in Example 11 which has an IC50 for LSD l and MAO-B which is about 2-fold lower than for MAO-A. Another example of a dual LSDl /MAO-B inhibitor is iven in Example 7 where the MAO-B IC50 is less than half the value it is for MAO-A and the LSDl IC50 is about 1 micromolar.
Table 1
All results reported in Table 1 are the average of at-least two determinations of the IC50 value and usually more, unless otherwise noted, and nd signifies not determined. The IC50 LSDl values for the inhibitors of examples 20, 21 , 23, and 25 represent only one measurement.
As can be seen from Table 1 , the compounds of Formula I can have IC50 values for LSDl of less than that for parnate, less than 10 micromolar, less than 1 micromolar, and less than 500 nanomolar. Typically the IC50 values of the compounds of Formula I for LSDl are less than 1 micromolar.
As can be seen from Table 1 , the compounds of Formula I can have IC50 values for MAO-A of less than 20 micromolar, less than 10 micromolar, and less than 5 micromolar. Typically the IC50 values of the compounds of Formula I for MAO-A are greater than 1 micromolar.
As can be seen from Table 1 , the compounds of Formula I can have IC50 values for MAO-B of less than 20 micromolar, less than 10 micromolar, and less than 5 micromolar. Typically the IC50 values of the compounds of Formula I for MAO-B are greater than 1 micromolar.
Most of the compounds of the Examples are selective LSDl inhibitors in that they inhibit LSD l to a greater extent than MAO-A and MAO-B. Some of the compounds of the Examples inhibit both MAO-B and LSDl to a greater extent than MAO-A.
As the skilled artisan readily recognizes the compounds disclosed herein are surprisingly and significantly more potent than tranylcypromine for LSD l inhibition. Han et al. (Euro. J. Pharma. (2008) doi: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2008.12.025) reported that phenylcyclopropylamine displays neuroprotective activity in PC 12 cells thus the compounds of Formula I may be used as a neuroprotectant (e.g., used to treat and/or prevent conditions characterized by neurodegeneration). Furthermore, since the compounds of Formula I are potent LSDl inhibitor they can be used to treat and/or prevent diseases where LSDl inhibition is desirable, e.g., cancer.
All publications and patent applications mentioned in the specification are indicative of the level of those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains. All publications and patent applications are herein incorporated by reference to the same extent as if each individual publication or patent application was specifically and individually indicated to be incorporated by reference. The mere mentioning of the publications and patent applications does not necessarily constitute an admission that they are prior art to the instant application.
Although the foregoing invention has been described in some detail by way of illustration and example for purposes of clarity of understanding, it will be obvious that certain changes and modifications may be practiced within the scope of the appended claims.
