Definitions

  • the invention relates to bicyclic compounds of formula (I) and salts thereof, the uses of such compounds to treat the human or animal body, in particular with regard to a proliferative disease, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, combinations comprising a compound of formula (I), and processes for the preparation of such compounds.
  • the Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor herein referred to as c-Met, is a receptor tyrosine kinase that has been shown to be over-expressed and/or genetically altered in a variety of malignancies, specifically, gene amplification and a number of c-Met mutations are found in various solid tumors, see e.g. WO 2007/126799. Further, the receptor tyrosine kinase c-Met is involved in the processes of migration, invasion and morphogenesis that accompany embryogenesis and tissue regeneration. C-Met is also involved in the process of metastasis. Several lines of evidence have indicated that c- Met plays a role in tumor pathogenesis.
  • Gain of function germ line mutations in c-Met is associated with development of hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC). Amplification or mutations in c-Met have also been reported in sporadic forms of PRCC, in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, in gastric carcinoma, in pancreatic carcinoma and in lung cancer. Such alterations have been shown in selected instances to confer dependence of the tumor on c-Met and/or resistence to other targeted therapies. Elevated levels of c-Met, together with its unique ligand HGF/SF, are observed at high frequency in multiple clinically relevant tumors. A correlation between increased expression and disease progression, metastases and patient mortality has been reported in several cancers, including bladder, breast, squamous cell carcinoma and gastric carcinoma as well as leiomyosarcoma and glioblastoma.

Introduction
The Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor, herein referred to as c-Met, is a receptor tyrosine kinase that has been shown to be over-expressed and/or genetically altered in a variety of malignancies, specifically, gene amplification and a number of c-Met mutations are found in various solid tumors, see e.g. WO 2007/126799. Further, the receptor tyrosine kinase c-Met is involved in the processes of migration, invasion and morphogenesis that accompany embryogenesis and tissue regeneration. C-Met is also involved in the process of metastasis. Several lines of evidence have indicated that c- Met plays a role in tumor pathogenesis. Gain of function germ line mutations in c-Met is associated with development of hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC). Amplification or mutations in c-Met have also been reported in sporadic forms of PRCC, in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, in gastric carcinoma, in pancreatic carcinoma and in lung cancer. Such alterations have been shown in selected instances to confer dependence of the tumor on c-Met and/or resistence to other targeted therapies. Elevated levels of c-Met, together with its unique ligand HGF/SF, are observed at high frequency in multiple clinically relevant tumors. A correlation between increased expression and disease progression, metastases and patient mortality has been reported in several cancers, including bladder, breast, squamous cell carcinoma and gastric carcinoma as well as leiomyosarcoma and glioblastoma.
c-Met inhibitors have been described in the prior art. For example, WO 2008/008539, WO 2009/091374, WO 2010/019899 and WO 2010/007316 disclose certain triazolopyridine derivatives which are useful in the treatment of c-Met related diseases. WO 2008/051808, WO 2010/019899, WO 2010/007316, WO 2009/056692, WO 2010/089506, WO 2010/089507, WO 2010/089508, and WO 2010/089509 disclose a variety of fused heterocyclic compounds with different kinds of 9-10 membered heteroaryl moieties linked via an -S- linker, which compounds are indicated for the treatment of c-Met mediated diseases. Furthermore, international patent applications WO 201 1/018454 and WO 201 1/020861 disclose certain substituted triazolopyridazine derivatives with an oxime or hydrazone moiety linked to a potentially substituted quinoline moiety which are useful in the treatment of c-Met mediated disorders.
Summary of the invention
It is an aim of the present invention to provide further compounds that modulate, and in particular inhibit, c-Met. It has now been found that the compounds of the formula (I) described herein are inhibitors of c-Met and have a number of therapeutic applications. For example, the compounds of formula (I) are suitable for use in the treatment of diseases dependent on c-Met activity, especially solid tumors or metastasis derived therefrom. Through the inhibition of c-Met, compounds of the invention also have utility as anti-inflammatory agents, for example for the treatment of an inflammatory condition which is due to an infection.
Preferably, the compounds of the invention are metabolically stable, are non-toxic and demonstrate few side-effects. In addition, preferred compounds of the invention exist in a physical form that is stable, non-hygroscopic and easily formulated. One aspect of the invention is directed to compounds of formula (I) having an activity that is at least similar, better superior to the activity of compounds of the prior art, or other similar compounds. Another aspect of the invention is directed to compounds of formula (I) having a good kinase selectivity. In particular, preferred compounds should have high affinity to the c-Met receptor and show functional antagonistic activity, while having little affinity for other kinase receptors or for targets known to be associated with adverse effects. In one aspect of the invention, preferred compounds demonstrate comparably low antagonistic activity against human PDE3 than related derivatives. Furthemore, the compounds of the invention are metabolically stable, in particular with regard to degradation by aldehyde oxidase enzymatic activities. Preferred compounds of the invention posses favourable pharmacokinetic properties, such as good in-vivo exposure and/or solubility and especially good metabolic stability, and/or do not form metabolites with unfavourable pharmacological properties. Particularly preferred compounds of the invention have favourable characteristics in more than one of the assays described herein.

No. 15 (1 -Methyl-piperidin-4-yl)-{6-[6-(1 -methyl-1 H-pyrazol-4-yl)-[1 ,2,4]triazolo[4,3- a]pyridin-3-ylsulfanyl]-quinolin-3-yl}-amine.
Further Definitions
As used herein, the term "isomers" refers to different compounds that have the same molecular formula but differ in arrangement and configuration of the atoms. Also as used herein, the term "an optical isomer" or "a stereoisomer" refers to any of the various stereo isomeric configurations which may exist for a given compound of the present invention and includes geometric isomers. It is understood that a substituent may be attached at a chiral center of a carbon atom. The term "chiral" refers to molecules which have the property of non-superimposability on their mirror image partner, while the term "achiral" refers to molecules which are superimposable on their mirror image partner. Therefore, the invention includes enantiomers, diastereomers or racemates of the compound. "Enantiomers" are a pair of stereoisomers that are non- superimposable mirror images of each other. A 1 :1 mixture of a pair of enantiomers is a "racemic" mixture. The term is used to designate a racemic mixture where appropriate. "Diastereoisomers" are stereoisomers that have at least two asymmetric atoms, but which are not mirror-images of each other. The absolute stereochemistry is specified according to the Cahn-lngold-Prelog R-S system. When a compound is a pure enantiomer the stereochemistry at each chiral carbon may be specified by either R or S. Resolved compounds whose absolute configuration is unknown can be designated (+) or (-) depending on the direction (dextro- or levorotatory) which they rotate plane polarized light at the wavelength of the sodium D line. Certain compounds described herein contain one or more asymmetric centers or axes and may thus give rise to enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomeric forms that may be defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (/?)- or (S)-.
Depending on the choice of the starting materials and procedures, the compounds can be present in the form of one of the possible isomers or as mixtures thereof, for example as pure optical isomers, or as isomer mixtures, such as racemates and diastereoisomer mixtures, depending on the number of asymmetric carbon atoms. The present invention is meant to include all such possible isomers, including racemic mixtures, diasteriomeric mixtures and optically pure forms. Optically active (R)- and (S)- isomers may be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques. If the compound contains a disubstituted cycloalkyl, the cycloalkyl substituent may have a cis- or trans-configuration. All tautomeric forms are also intended to be included.
Substituents at atoms with unsaturated bonds may, if possible, be present in c/'s- (Z)- or trans- (£)- form. Preferably, the oximes of the present invention have the transit)- form.
Any asymmetric atom (e.g., carbon or the like) of the compound(s) of the present invention can be present in racemic or enantiomerically enriched, for example the (/?)-, (S)- or {R,S)- configuration. In certain embodiments, each asymmetric atom has at least 50 % enantiomeric excess, at least 60 % enantiomeric excess, at least 70 % enantiomeric excess, at least 80 % enantiomeric excess, at least 90 % enantiomeric excess, at least 95 % enantiomeric excess, or at least 99 % enantiomeric excess in the (R)- or (S)- configuration. Substituents at atoms with unsaturated double bonds may, if possible, be present in cis- (Z)- or trans- (£)- form.
Accordingly, as used herein a compound of the present invention can be in the form of one of the possible isomers, rotamers, atropisomers, tautomers or mixtures thereof, for example, as substantially pure geometric (cis or trans) isomers, diastereomers, optical isomers (antipodes), racemates or mixtures thereof.
Any resulting mixtures of isomers can be separated on the basis of the physicochemical differences of the constituents, into the pure or substantially pure geometric or optical isomers, diastereomers, racemates, for example, by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization.
Any resulting racemates of final products or intermediates can be resolved into the optical antipodes by known methods, e.g., by separation of the diastereomeric salts thereof, obtained with an optically active acid or base, and liberating the optically active acidic or basic compound. In particular, a basic moiety may thus be employed to resolve the compounds of the present invention into their optical antipodes, e.g., by fractional crystallization of a salt formed with an optically active acid, e.g., tartaric acid, dibenzoyl tartaric acid, diacetyl tartaric acid, di-0,0'-p-toluoyl tartaric acid, mandelic acid, malic acid or camphor-10-sulfonic acid. Racemic products can also be resolved by chiral chromatography, e.g., high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a chiral adsorbent.
As used herein, the terms "salt" or "salts" refers to an acid addition or base addition salt of a compound of the invention. "Salts" include in particular "pharmaceutical acceptable salts". The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" refers to salts that retain the biological effectiveness and properties of the compounds of this invention and, which typically are not biologically or otherwise undesirable. In many cases, the compounds of the present invention are capable of forming acid and/or base salts by virtue of the presence of amino and/or carboxyl groups or groups similar thereto.
Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts can be formed with inorganic acids and organic acids, e.g. acetate, aspartate, benzoate, besylate, bromide/hydrobromide, bicarbonate/carbonate, bisulfate/sulfate, camphorsulfonate, chloride/hydrochloride, chlortheophyllonate, citrate, ethandisulfonate, fumarate, gluceptate, gluconate, glucuronate, hippurate, hydroiodide/iodide, isethionate, lactate, lactobionate, laurylsulfate, malate, maleate, malonate, mandelate, mesylate, methylsulphate, naphthoate, napsylate, nicotinate, nitrate, octadecanoate, oleate, oxalate, palmitate, pamoate, phosphate/hydrogen phosphate/dihydrogen phosphate, polygalacturonate, propionate, stearate, succinate, subsalicylate, tartrate, tosylate and trifluoroacetate salts.
Inorganic acids from which salts can be derived include, for example, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, and the like.
Organic acids from which salts can be derived include, for example, acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, toluenesulfonic acid, sulfosalicylic acid, and the like. Pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts can be formed with inorganic and organic bases.
Inorganic bases from which salts can be derived include, for example, ammonium salts and metals from columns I to XII of the periodic table. In certain embodiments, the salts are derived from sodium, potassium, ammonium, calcium, magnesium, iron, silver, zinc, and copper; particularly suitable salts include ammonium, potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium salts.
Organic bases from which salts can be derived include, for example, primary, secondary, and tertiary amines, substituted amines including naturally occurring substituted amines, cyclic amines, basic ion exchange resins, and the like. Certain organic amines include isopropylamine, benzathine, cholinate, diethanolamine, diethylamine, lysine, meglumine, piperazine and tromethamine.
The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the present invention can be synthesized from a basic or acidic moiety, by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting free acid forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base (such as Na, Ca, Mg, or K hydroxide, carbonate, bicarbonate or the like), or by reacting free base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate acid. Such reactions are typically carried out in water or in an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two. Generally, use of non-aqueous media like ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile is desirable, where practicable. Lists of additional suitable salts can be found, e.g., in "Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences", 20th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., (1985); and in "Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection, and Use" by Stahl and Wermuth (Wiley-VCH, Weinheim, Germany, 2002).
Any formula given herein is also intended to represent unlabeled forms as well as isotopically labeled forms of the compounds. Isotopically labeled compounds have structures depicted by the formulas given herein except that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having a selected atomic mass or mass number. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds of the invention include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, fluorine, and chlorine, such as 2H, 3H, 11C, 13C, 14C, 15N, 18F 31P, 32P, 35S, 36CI, 125l respectively. The invention includes various isotopically labeled compounds as defined herein, for example those into which radioactive isotopes, such as 3H and 14C, or those into which non-radioactive isotopes, such as 2H and 13C are present. Such isotopically labelled compounds are useful in metabolic studies (with 14C), reaction kinetic studies (with, for example 2H or 3H), detection or imaging techniques, such as positron emission tomography (PET) or single- photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) including drug or substrate tissue distribution assays, or in radioactive treatment of patients. In particular, an 18F or labeled compound may be particularly desirable for PET or SPECT studies.
Isotopically-labeled compounds of formula (I) can generally be prepared by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art or by processes analogous to those described in the accompanying Examples and Preparations using an appropriate isotopically-labeled reagents in place of the non-labeled reagent previously employed.
Further, substitution with heavier isotopes, particularly deuterium (i.e., 2H or D) may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements or an improvement in therapeutic index. It is understood that deuterium in this context is regarded as a substituent of a compound of the formula (I). The concentration of such a heavier isotope, specifically deuterium, may be defined by the isotopic enrichment factor. The term "isotopic enrichment factor" as used herein means the ratio between the isotopic abundance and the natural abundance of a specified isotope. If a substituent in a compound of this invention is denoted deuterium, such compound has an isotopic enrichment factor for each designated deuterium atom of at least 3500 (52.5% deuterium incorporation at each designated deuterium atom), at least 4000 (60% deuterium incorporation), at least 4500 (67.5% deuterium incorporation), at least 5000 (75% deuterium incorporation), at least 5500 (82.5% deuterium incorporation), at least 6000 (90% deuterium incorporation), at least 6333.3 (95% deuterium incorporation), at least 6466.7 (97% deuterium incorporation), at least 6600 (99% deuterium incorporation), or at least 6633.3 (99.5% deuterium incorporation).
Furthermore, the compounds of the present invention, including their salts, can also be obtained in the form of their hydrates, or include other solvents used for their crystallization. The compounds of the present invention may inherently or by design form solvates with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents (including water); therefore, it is intended that the invention embrace both solvated and unsolvated forms. The term "solvate" refers to a molecular complex of a compound of the present invention (including pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof) with one or more solvent molecules. Such solvent molecules are those commonly used in the pharmaceutical art, which are known to be innocuous to the recipient, e.g., water, ethanol, and the like. The term "hydrate" refers to the complex where the solvent molecule is water.

In the context of the present invention, "c-Met tyrosine kinase mediated diseases" are especially such disorders that respond in a beneficial way (e.g. amelioration of one or more symptoms, delay of the onset of a disease, up to temporary or complete cure from a disease) to the inhibition of a protein tyrosine kinase, especially inhibition of a c- Met kinase. These disorders include proliferative diseases such as tumor diseases and cancer. These disorders further include inflammatory conditions, such as inflammatory conditions due to an infection. In particular, c-Met inhibitors are intended to treat (solid) tumors driven by high c-Met pathway activity. Met activating kinase mutations, focal amplification of the Met gene, and high expression of its cognate ligand, HGF, can all lead to high c-Met pathway activation, which leads to tumor transformation.
Indications The compounds of formula (I) in free form or in salt form, exhibit valuable pharmacological properties, e.g. c-Met kinase inhibiting properties, e.g. as indicated in in vitro and in vivo tests as provided herewithin and are therefore indicated for therapy.
Therefore, in one embodiment, the invention relates to a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for use in medicine.

As stated above, c-Met tyrosine kinase mediated or related disorders or diseases in particular refer to a proliferative disease or an inflammatory condition. Proliferative diseases and inflammatory conditions are defined in more detail below.
A: Proliferative diseases
Proliferative diseases comprise cancer indications wherein the cancer is selected from the group consisting of brain cancer, stomach cancer, genital cancer, urinary cancer, prostate cancer, bladder cancer (superficial and muscle invasive), breast cancer, cervical cancer, colon cancer, colorectal cancer, glioma (including glioblastoma, anaplastic astrocytoma, oligoastrocytoma, oligodendroglioma), esophageal cancer, gastric and/or gastroesophageal cancer (GC), gastrointestinal cancer, liver cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) including childhood HCC, head and neck cancer (including head and neck squamous-cell carcinoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC)), Hurthle cell carcinoma, epithelial cancer, skin cancer, melanoma (including malignant melanoma), mesothelioma, lymphoma, myeloma (including multiple myeloma), leukemias, lung cancer (including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (including all histological subtypes: adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, bronchoalveolar carcinoma, large-cell carcinoma, and adenosquamous mixed type), small-cell lung cancer), ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, kidney cancer (including but not limited to papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC)), intestine cancer, renal cell cancer (including hereditary and sporadic papillary renal cell cancer, Type I and Type II, and clear cell renal cell cancer); sarcomas, in particular osteosarcomas, clear cell sarcomas, and soft tissue sarcomas (including alveolar and embryonal rhabdomyosarcomas, alveolar soft part sarcomas); thyroid carcinoma (papillary and other subtypes).
In one embodiment, cancer is selected from the group consisting of stomach cancer, colon cancer, liver cancer, genital cancer, urinary cancer, melanoma, or prostate cancer. In a particular embodiment, the cancer is liver or esophageal cancer.
In one embodiment, cancer refers in particular to solid tumors and metastasis derived thereof, e.g. hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC), sporadic forms of PRCC, head and neck cancer, squamous cell carcinoma, gastric carcinoma, pancreatic carcinoma, lung cancer, bladder cancer, breast cancer, leiomyosarcoma, glioblastoma, melanoma, and alveolar soft part sarcoma.
Furthermore, compounds of formula (I) are particularly useful for the treatment of colon cancer, including metastases, e.g. in the liver, and of non-small-cell lung carcinoma.
Compounds of formula (I) may also be used in the treatment of hereditary papillary renal carcinoma (Schmidt, L. et al. Nat. Genet. 16, 68-73, 1997) and other proliferative diseases in which c-Met is overexpressed or constitutively activated by mutations (Jeffers and Vande Woude. Oncogene 18, 5120-5125, 1999; and reference cited therein) or chromosomal rearrange-ments (e.g. TPR-MET; Cooper et al. Nature 31 1 , 29-33, 1984; Park, et al. Cell 45, 895-904, 1986).
B: Inflammatory conditions:
Inflammatory conditions in the context of the present invention comprise inflammatory condition being due to an infection. In one embodiment, the method of treatment would be to block pathogen infection. In a particular embodiment, the infection is a bacterial infection, e.g., a Listeria infection. See, e.g., Shen et al. Cell 103: 501 -10, (2000) whereby a bacterial surface protein activates c-Met kinase through binding to the extracellular domain of the receptor, thereby mimicking the effect of the cognate ligand HGF/SF. Compounds of formula (I) are further useful in the treatment of additional inflammatory disorders and conditions as provided herein or known in the art.
Pharmaceutical formulations
In another aspect, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I) and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as active ingredient in association with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and/or diluent. In particular, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof , and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers.
In a further embodiment, the invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for treatment of a disease, e.g. of a proliferative disease or an inflammatory condition, e.g. of a solid tumor in warm-blooded animals, including humans, comprising a dose effective in the treatment of said disease of a compound of the formula (I) as described above or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of such a compound together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
Such pharmaceutical composition can be formulated for particular routes of administration such as oral administration, parenteral administration, and rectal administration, etc. In addition, the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can be made up in a solid form (including without limitation capsules, tablets, pills, granules, powders or suppositories), or in a liquid form (including without limitation solutions, suspensions or emulsions). The pharmaceutical compositions can be subjected to conventional pharmaceutical operations such as sterilization and/or can contain conventional inert diluents, lubricating agents, or buffering agents, as well as adjuvants, such as preservatives, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifers and buffers, etc.
Typically, the pharmaceutical compositions are tablets or gelatin capsules comprising the active ingredient together with
a) diluents, e.g., lactose, dextrose, sucrose, mannitol, sorbitol, cellulose and/or glycine; b) lubricants, e.g., silica, talcum, stearic acid, its magnesium or calcium salt and/or polyethyleneglycol; for tablets also
c) binders, e.g., magnesium aluminum silicate, starch paste, gelatin, tragacanth, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose and/or polyvinylpyrrolidone; if desired d) disintegrants, e.g., starches, agar, alginic acid or its sodium salt, or effervescent mixtures; and/or
e) absorbents, colorants, flavors and sweeteners.
Suitable compositions for oral administration include an effective amount of a compound of the invention in the form of tablets, lozenges, aqueous or oily suspensions, dispersible powders or granules, emulsion, hard or soft capsules, or syrups or elixirs. Compositions intended for oral use are prepared according to any method known in the art for the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions and such compositions can contain one or more agents selected from the group consisting of sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents and preserving agents in order to provide pharmaceutically elegant and palatable preparations. Tablets may contain the active ingredient in admixture with nontoxic pharmaceutically acceptable excipients which are suitable for the manufacture of tablets. These excipients are, for example, inert diluents, such as calcium carbonate, sodium carbonate, lactose, calcium phosphate or sodium phosphate; granulating and disintegrating agents, for example, corn starch, or alginic acid; binding agents, for example, starch, gelatin or acacia; and lubricating agents, for example magnesium stearate, stearic acid or talc. The tablets are uncoated or coated by known techniques. Tablets may be either film coated or enteric coated according to methods known in the art. Tablets may be coated or formulated in a particular way to delay disintegration and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby provide a sustained action over a longer period. For example, a time delay material such as glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate can be employed. Formulations for oral use can be presented as hard gelatin capsules wherein the active ingredient is mixed with an inert solid diluent, for example, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate or kaolin, or as soft gelatin capsules wherein the active ingredient is mixed with water or an oil medium, for example, peanut oil, liquid paraffin or olive oil.
Certain injectable compositions are aqueous isotonic solutions or suspensions, and suppositories are advantageously prepared from fatty emulsions or suspensions. Said compositions may be sterilized and/or contain adjuvants, such as preserving, stabilizing, wetting or emulsifying agents, solution promoters, salts for regulating the osmotic pressure and/or buffers. In addition, they may also contain other therapeutically valuable substances. Said compositions are prepared according to conventional mixing, granulating or coating methods, respectively, and contain about 0.1-75%, or contain about 1-50%, of the active ingredient.
Suitable compositions for transdermal application include an effective amount of a compound of the invention with a suitable carrier. Carriers suitable for transdermal delivery include absorbable pharmacologically acceptable solvents to assist passage through the skin of the host. For example, transdermal devices are in the form of a bandage comprising a backing member, a reservoir containing the compound optionally with carriers, optionally a rate controlling barrier to deliver the compound of the skin of the host at a controlled and predetermined rate over a prolonged period of time, and means to secure the device to the skin.
Suitable compositions for topical application, e.g., to the skin and eyes, include aqueous solutions, suspensions, ointments, creams, gels or sprayable formulations, e.g., for delivery by aerosol or the like. Such topical delivery systems will in particular be appropriate for dermal application, e.g., for the treatment of skin cancer, e.g., for prophylactic use in sun creams, lotions, sprays and the like. They are thus particularly suited for use in topical, including cosmetic, formulations well-known in the art. Such may contain solubilizers, stabilizers, tonicity enhancing agents, buffers and preservatives.
As used herein a topical application may also pertain to an inhalation or to an intranasal application. They may be conveniently delivered in the form of a dry powder (either alone, as a mixture, for example a dry blend with lactose, or a mixed component particle, for example with phospholipids) from a dry powder inhaler or an aerosol spray presentation from a pressurised container, pump, spray, atomizer or nebuliser, with or without the use of a suitable propellant.
The present invention further provides anhydrous pharmaceutical compositions and dosage forms comprising the compounds of the present invention as active ingredients, since water may facilitate the degradation of certain compounds.
Anhydrous pharmaceutical compositions and dosage forms of the invention can be prepared using anhydrous or low moisture containing ingredients and low moisture or low humidity conditions. An anhydrous pharmaceutical composition may be prepared and stored such that its anhydrous nature is maintained. Accordingly, anhydrous compositions are packaged using materials known to prevent exposure to water such that they can be included in suitable formulary kits. Examples of suitable packaging include, but are not limited to, hermetically sealed foils, plastics, unit dose containers (e. g., vials), blister packs, and strip packs.
The invention further provides pharmaceutical compositions and dosage forms that comprise one or more agents that reduce the rate by which the compound of the present invention as an active ingredient will decompose. Such agents, which are referred to herein as "stabilizers," include, but are not limited to, antioxidants such as ascorbic acid, pH buffers, or salt buffers, etc. Dosages
The pharmaceutical composition or combination of the present invention can be in unit dosage of about 1 -1000 mg of active ingredient(s) for a subject of about 50-70 kg, or about 1-500 mg or about 1-250 mg or about 1 -150 mg or about 0.5-100 mg, or about 1- 50 mg of active ingredients. The therapeutically effective dosage of a compound, the pharmaceutical composition, or the combinations thereof, is dependent on the species of the subject, the body weight, age and individual condition, the disorder or disease or the severity thereof being treated, the route of administration; the renal and hepatic function of the patient; and the particular compound employed. A physician, clinician or veterinarian of ordinary skill can readily determine the effective amount of each of the active ingredients necessary to prevent, treat or inhibit the progress of the disorder or disease. Optimal precision in achieving concentration of drug within the range that yields efficacy without toxicity requires a regimen based on the kinetics of the drug's availability to target sites. This involves a consideration of the distribution, equilibrium, and elimination of a drug.
The above-cited dosage properties are demonstrable in vitro and in vivo tests using advantageously mammals, e.g., mice, rats, dogs, monkeys or isolated organs, tissues and preparations thereof. The compounds of the present invention can be applied in vitro in the form of solutions, e.g., aqueous solutions, and in vivo either enterally, parenterally, advantageously intravenously, e.g., as a suspension or in aqueous solution. The dosage in vitro may range between about 10"3 molar and 10"9 molar concentrations. A therapeutically effective amount in vivo may range depending on the route of administration, between about 0.1 -500 mg/kg, or between about 1 -100 mg/kg.
Combinations
The compound of the present invention may be used in combination therapy, i.e. administered either simultaneously with, or before or after, one or more other therapeutic agents. The compound of the present invention may be administered separately, by the same or different route of administration, or together in the same pharmaceutical composition as the other agents.
In one embodiment, the invention provides a product comprising a compound of formula (I) and at least one other therapeutic agent as a combined preparation for simultaneous, separate or sequential use in therapy.

In another embodiment of the invention, there is provided a method of manufacturing a compound of formula (I) and intermediates thereof. A compound of the formula (I) may be prepared by processes that, though not applied hitherto for the new compounds of the present invention where they thus form new processes, are known per se. The schemes provide a general overview of synthetic strategies to obtain a compound of formula (I).
Thus, the invention relates in a further aspect to a manufacturing process (a method for manufacturing) a compound of formula (I) comprising at least one reaction step as disclosed herein, and intermediates thereof.
The compounds of the present invention may be prepared by use of known chemical reactions and procedures. Nevertheless, the following general preparative methods are presented to aid the reader in synthesizing the compounds of formula (I), with specific details provided below in the experimental section to illustrate working examples. The desired specific compounds can be prepared by selecting the appropriate starting materials, reactants and reaction conditions.
All variable groups of these methods are as described in the generic description if they are not specifically defined below.
It is recognized that compounds of the invention with each claimed optional functional group may not be prepared by each of the below-listed methods. Within the scope of each method, optional substituents may appear on reagents or intermediates which may act as protecting or otherwise non-participating groups. Utilizing methods well known to those skilled in the art, these groups are introduced and/or removed during the course of the synthetic schemes which provide the compounds of the present invention.
Typically, the compounds of formula (I) can be prepared according to the Schemes provided infra Scheme 1 provides details for a synthetic strategy to obtain preferred compounds of formula (l-A) wherein R1 is optionally substituted pyrazolyl, starting from compounds of formula (11.1 ).
Scheme 1

Wherein
R8a is hydrogen or (d-C4)alkyl, said (Ci-C4)alkyl being optionally substituted by a protected OH group;
R8 is hydrogen or (C1-C4)alkyl, said (C-|-C4)alkyl being optionally substituted by one OH group;
R2 is selected from hydrogen and halo;
Z1 is a leaving group such as Br, I, or triflate (CF3-S02-0- or TfO-) or any other suitable leaving group; and
R3a is selected from
(i) optionally substituted -(Co-C2)alkyl-heterocyclyl1, wherein free -OH and -NH2 groups are adequately protected if necessary,
(ii) -NHR4a, wherein R4a is a protection group such as t-BOC (/V-ferf-butoxycarbonyl ) or (Ci-C4)alkyl, said (Ci-C4)alkyl being optionally substituted by one, two or three substituents independently selected from protected OH and halo,
or wherein R4a is optionally substituted -(Co-C2)alkyl-heterocyclyl3, wherein free - OH and -NH2 groups are adequately protected if necessary; and
R3 is as defined herein for compounds of the present invention.
Depending on the nature of Z1 and R3a, the reaction carried out in Step a might require slightly different reaction conditions. The reaction product of step A, a compound of formula (1.1 ) either already represents a compound of formula (I) or requires further modifications of substituents R3a to R3 and/or R8a to R8 to deliver a compound of formula (l-A). Such modifications like the removal of protection groups are well known to a person skilled in the art.
Scheme 2 provides details for a synthetic strategy to obtain preferred compounds of formula (l-B) wherein R1 is an optionally substituted oxime group -CR9=N-0-R10, starting from compounds of formula (II.2).

R3 is as defined herein for compounds of the present invention.
Depending on the nature of Z1 and R3a, the reaction carried out in step A might require slightly different reaction conditions. The reaction product of step A, a compound of formula (1.2) will then be transformed in the desired oxime derivate (l-B) by steps B and C. Substituent R3a either already represents the desired residue R3 or requires further modifications such as the removal of protection groups which are well known to a person skilled in the art. Such modifications are preferably carried out before reaction step C.

The starting materials and reagents in the above scheme are all either available commercially or can be prepared following literature precedents. Within the scope of this text, only a readily removable group that is not a constituent of the particular desired end product of the compounds of the present invention is designated a "protecting group", unless the context indicates otherwise. The protection of functional groups by such protecting groups, the protecting groups themselves, and their cleavage reactions are described for example in standard reference works, such as J. F. W. McOmie, "Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry", Plenum Press, London and New York 1973, in T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, "Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis", Third edition, Wiley, New York 1999, in "The Peptides"; Volume 3 (editors: E. Gross and J. Meienhofer), Academic Press, London and New York 1981 , in "Methoden der organischen Chemie" (Methods of Organic Chemistry), Houben Weyl, 4th edition, Volume 15/1, Georg Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart 1974, in H.-D. Jakubke and H. Jeschkeit, "Aminosauren, Peptide, Proteine" (Amino acids, Peptides, Proteins), Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, Deerfield Beach, and Basel 1982, and in Jochen Lehmann, "Chemie der Kohlenhydrate: Monosaccharide und Derivate" (Chemistry of Carbohydrates: Monosaccharides and Derivatives), Georg Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart 1974. A characteristic of protecting groups is that they can be removed readily (i.e. without the occurrence of undesired secondary reactions) for example by solvolysis, reduction, photolysis or alternatively under physiological conditions (e.g. by enzymatic cleavage).

The activity of a compound according to the present invention can be assessed by the following in vitro & in vivo methods.
1. C-Met enzyme assay (EPK c-Met Profiling Assay)
ber of compounds of the present invention were assayed in an antibody based kinase phosphorylation assay as follows.
The EPK kinase assay for c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase was developed, using the purified recombinant GST-fusion protein, containing the cytoplasmic domain of the enzyme. GST-c-MET (969-1390) was purified by affinity chromatography.
The kinase assay is based on the LanthaScreen technology. LanthaScreen™ is the detection of Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (TR-FRET) using lanthanide chelates to measure interactions between various binding partners. In a TR-FRET kinase assay, a long-lifetime lanthanide donor species is conjugated to an antibody that specifically binds to a phosphorylated product of a kinase reaction that is labeled with a suitable acceptor fluorophore. This antibody-mediated interaction brings the lanthanide donor and the acceptor into proximity such that resonance energy transfer can take place, resulting in a detectible increase in the FRET signal.
The kinase reactions were performed in 384 well microtiter plates in a total reaction volume of 10.05 μΙ_. The assay plates were prepared with 0.05 μΙ_ per well of test compound in the appropriate test concentration, as described under "preparation of compound dilutions". The reactions were started by combining 5 μΙ_ of ATP solution with 5 μΙ_ of enzyme-substrate mix (consisting of kinase and substrate). The final concentrations in the kinase reactions were 25 mM Tris/HCI, 1 mM DTT, 0.025% Tween20, 10 μΜ sodium orthovanadate, 0.25% BSA, 0.5 % DMSO, 10 mM MgCI2, 3 mM MnCI2, 2 μΜ ATP, 50 nM Fluorescein-PolyEAY, and 0.3 nM enzyme. The reactions were incubated for 60 minutes at room temperature and stopped by adding 5 μΙ_ of stop buffer (50 mM EDTA, 0.04 % NP40, 20 mM Tris/HCI). Subsequently 5 μΙ_ of detection mix (50 mM Tris/HCI, 2 mM DTT, 0.05% Tween20, 20 μΜ sodium orthovanadate, 1 % BSA, 1 nM Tb-PY20 antibody) were added to the stopped reactions. After 45 minutes incubation in dark at room temperature, the plates were measured in a Perkinelmer Envision fluorescence reader. The effect of compound on the enzymatic activity was in all assays obtained from the linear progress curves and determined from one reading (end point measurement).
Results are summarized in the Table 1-A below. "Active" compounds of the invention have an IC50 in this enzyme assay of less than 500 nM, preferably less than 100 nM, more preferably less than 50 nM and most preferably less than 10 nM.
As it can be seen, each of the exemplified compounds of the invention has an IC50 value in this enzyme assay below 500 nM. The preferred compounds of the invention each have an IC50 value in this enzyme assay below 100 nM, and the most preferred compounds have IC50 values in this enzyme assay below 10 nM.

2. GTL16 Cell Viability Assay: GTL16 cell line is derived from a gastric cancer patient. GTL16 expresses high level of c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase due to the gene amplification. The growth of GTL16 is highly dependent on c-Met kinase activity; hence it is used as a cell-based assay to monitor the cellular activity of the c-Met kinase inhibitors.
GTL16 cells were seeded in DMEM medium with 10% FBS and 1 % Pene. & Strep, at 5000 οβΙΙβΛΛ/βΙΙ/ΘΟμΙ- in 96 well plate and incubated overnight for attachment at 37°C in 5% C02 incubator. 10-fold serials dilutions of compounds were added to the cell as 10μΙ_ΛΛ/βΙΙ. The final assay volume was 10ΟμΙ/well. The assay plates were incubated at 37°C in 5% C02 incubator for 24 hours. The viability of cells was measured using the CellTiter Glo (Cat# G7573 Promega) according to the protocol suggested by the vender. Briefly, the plates were cooled at room temperature for 10 mins and 100 μΙ of CellTiter Glo reagent was added into each well. Plates were shaken for 10 mins. The chemiluminescent light unit was read in Envision from Perkin Elmer. All the tests were run at triplicates. The IC50 was calculated using Spotfire software.
Results are summarized in the Table 2-A below. "Active" compounds of the invention have an IC50 in this enzyme assay of less than 1500 nM, preferably less than 1000 nM, preferably less than 500 nM, more preferably less than 100 nM, more preferably less than 20 nM and most preferably less than 10 nM.
Each of the exemplified compounds has an IC50 value in this enzyme assay below 1500 nM. The preferred compounds of the invention each have an IC50 value in this enzyme assay below 500 nM, more preferred compounds have IC50 values in this enzyme assay below 100 nMand the most preferred compounds have IC50 values in this enzyme assay below 10 nM.

3. hPDE3 assay
Phosphodiesterase-3 (PDE3) is one of a family of phosphodiesterases responsible for the regulation of cyclic nucleotide second messengers. Human PDE3 has high affinity for both cAMP and cGMP and is distributed in a wide range of tissues and cell types. Inhibitors of hPDE3 are potentially useful as inotropic/vasodilator, antithrombotic and anti-inflammatory agents (Komas et al. 1996). Agents that inhibit PDE3 were originally investigated for the treatment of heart failure but have unwanted arrhythmic side effects (Dart R.C., Medical Toxicology, Edition 3, page 708; Lippincott 2004).
PDE3 assays to measure the inhibitory potential of compounds at this enzyme are well known to the person skilled in the art. For example, cAMP and cGMP levels can be measured by the use of the tritium containing compounds 3HcAMP and 3HcGMP as described in [Hansen, R.S., and Beavo, J.A., PNAS 1982;79: 2788-92]. To screen a compound pool comprised of a large number of compounds, the microtiter plate-based scintillation proximity assay (SPA) as described in [Bardelle, C. et al. (1999) Anal. Biochem. 275: 148-155] can be applied. Alternatively, the phosphodiesterase activity of the recombinant protein can be assayed using a commercially available SPA kit (Amersham Pharmacia). Such an assay for PDE3 was e.g. described within Kima et al (2004) Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, Vol 14(9): 2099-2103. An alternative PDE3 assay for measuring the PDE3 inhibitory potential of c-Met inhibitors was disclosed in WO 2010/138673.
A possible isolation method for human PDE3 from human platelets is disclosed within Ito et al (1996) Cell Signal. 1996 Dec;8(8):575-81 .
Here, compounds of formula I were screened for their ability to inhibit human PDE3 in the assay based on Amersham Pharmacia Biotech's Phosphodiesterase (PDE) [3H]- adenosine 3', 5' cyclic phosphate ([3H]cAMP) Scintillation Proximity Assay (SPA). The assay is based on the hydrolysis of [3H]cAMP, by human platelet PDE3, to [3Η]5'- adenoside monophosphate (5'-AMP). The [3H]5'-AMP is specifically captured by yttrium silicate SPA beads in the presence of zinc sulphate. When [3H]5'-AMP binds to the beads, β-particles are emitted and excite, by their proximity, the fluorophore in the beads and hence produce light. Free [3H]cAMP in turn does not activate the scintillant, since the unbound radioactivity is released too distant from the scintillant, and hence does not produce light.
Materials
• Optiplate and TopSeal-S (Canberra Packard)
· Human platelet PDE3 (partially purified from human platelets) - a titration curve of human platelet PDE3 activity was performed to optimise the concentration of hPDE3 required in the assay.
• Yttrium silicate SPA beads and [3H]cAMP (Amersham)
• Tris-Base, magnesium chloride, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (di-sodium salt), bovine serum albumin BSA and cAMP (Sigma)
Solutions and Buffers: • Assay buffer: 7.56 g Tris-Base was dissolved in approximately 800 ml. distilled water and the pH adjusted to 7.5 with 1 M hydrochloric acid. 10.3 ml. 1 M magnesium chloride and 4.25 ml. 0.5 M EDTA were added. The solution was made to 1 L with distilled water and stored at 4°C. On day of use 18 ml. of the above solution was removed and 2 ml. 5 mg/ml BSA were added thereto.
• Enzyme buffer: 10 mM Tris-HCI at pH 7.5, 1 mM EDTA
• Yttrium silicate SPA beads: 1 vial was reconstituted in 28 ml. distilled water and
stored at 4°C.
Assay
The assay was performed in a final volume of 100 μΙ_ per well of an Optiplate
(Canberra Packard). A 10 μΙ_ aliquot of the test compound dissolved in DMSO/distilled water was placed in a well of an Optiplate plate, followed by the addition of 80 μΙ_ 'Assay mix' (5.5 μΙ_ [3H]cAMP and 88 μΙ_ "cold" cAMP were diluted to 8.8 ml. using assay buffer). The reaction was started by adding 10 μΙ_ hPDE3 (50 μΙ_ stock hPDE3 solution was diluted 50fold to 2.5 ml. using enzyme buffer). The plate was incubated at room temperature for 30 min, the reaction was then terminated by the addition of 50 μΙ_ Yttrium silicate SPA beads (pre-warmed to room temperature) to all wells. The plate incubated at room temperature for at least 15 min. The plate was sealed using TopSeal-S according to the manufacturer's instructions and counted using a Packard TopCount, each well being counted for 1 min. IC50 values were determined using non-linear regression.
Results of some exemplary compounds are summarized in the Table 3-A below. Compounds of the invention have preferably high IC50 values in this enzyme assay, preferably more than 5 μΜ, more preferably more than 10 μΜ and most preferably more than 30 μΜ. As it can be seen, each of the exemplified compounds has an IC50 value in this enzyme assay above 10 μΜ. Results for some further compounds as described herein are summarized in the Table 3-B below.
For comparison, results for reference examples and for comparator compounds are summarized below in Table 3-C. As it can be seen from the data comparator compounds with different core structures show significantly lower PDE3 IC50 values.

4. Metabolic stability in monkey liver cytosol fractions
The compounds of the invention were analysed with regard to their metabolic stability in view of the recent publication of apparent species dependent toxicity reported for 6-(6-(1-methyl-1 /-/-pyrazol-4-yl)-[1 ,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazin-3-ylthio)quinoline (SGX523), a c-MET inhibitor that entered clinical development for the treatment of solid tumors [Diamond et al (2010) DRUG METABOLISM AND DISPOSITION, Vol. 38, No. 8, 1277-1285]. Patients treated with SGX523 exhibited compromised renal function presumably resulting from crystal deposits in renal tubules. Metabolite profiling of SGX523 indicated that metabolite [6-(6-(1-methyl-1 H-pyrazol-4-yl)-[1 ,2,4]triazolo[4,3- b]pyridazin-3-ylthio)quinolin-2(1 H)-one (M1 1 )] was generated by monkey and human liver S-9, and to a lesser extent by rat S-9, whereas M1 1 was absent in dog S-9 incubations. It was shown that aldehyde oxidase (AO) was responsible for the generation of the 2-quinolinone-SGX523 metabolite which is markedly less-soluble than SGX523 itself. It was concluded that this metabolite is likely involved in the observed obstructive nephropathy reported in clinical studies, and that there is a need to conduct thorough metabolic evaluations early in drug development to select the most relevant nonclinical species for toxicological evaluation.
The metabolic stability of the compounds of the invention with regard to human aldehyde oxidase (AO) was analysed by using monkey liver cytosol which also has a high level of AO and is most comparable to the human situation [Pryde et al (2010) "Aldehyde Oxidase: An Enzyme of Emerging Importance in Drug Discovery" J. Med. Chem. 53, 8441-8460].
Incubation protocol
Test compound was dissolved in DMSO to 10 mM, diluted to 10 μΜ with 0.6% ACN in H20 (1000-fold). The 10-μΜ solution was further diluted in to 2 μΜ with H20. In a 400-uL reaction system, the final concentration for test compound and cytosol is 1 μΜ and 2 mg/ml, respectively. Monkey liver cytosol is pooled monkey liver cytosol (male cyno), 20 mg/ml [from iPhase Pharma Service (Beijing, China) Catalogue# 6CMCC1 , Lot# 6MCMCC001]. The volumes added to the reaction mixture were as follows: Reagent Final concentration Stock 400 uL
Potassium Phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) 50 mM 500 mM 40 uL
Monkey liver cytosol 2 mq/ml 20 mg/ml 40 uL
Test compound 1 μΜ 2 μΜ 200 uL
H20 120 uL
There was a 10 min preincubation at 37°C, and then the reactions are initiated by addition of test compound. At specific reaction time points (30, 60 and 120 minutes), reaction aliquots (25 μΙ_) are removed and reactions are terminated by addition of acetonitrile (100 μΙ_) containing internal standard (125 ng/ml JNJ-38877605). For time 0 point, the cytosol fraction was first terminated by the addition of acetonitrile, followed by the addition of substrate. All the samples were centrifuged at ~3400xg at 4°C for 10 min. The supernatants were diluted 1 :1 (v/v) in H20 and analyzed by LC-MS/MS.
In vitro clearance calculation
Each microsomal elimination rate, /cmic, is based on a 4-point elimination curve tested in singlet. LC-MS/MS raw data for a reaction plate is returned as integrated analyte peak areas for the TA and IS. These values may be converted to analyte:IS peak area ratios to standardize data comparisons. The reaction time point (eg. 0, 30, 60, 120 min) is plotted versus the natural logarithm of percent TA remaining relative to 0 minutes (based on relative peak area ratio). The slope of this clearance plot, kmic, is used to calculate the in vitro half-life,
