DHFR inhibitors
  • DHFR catalyzes the reduction of dihydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate and at a slower rate, the conversion of folate to tetrahydrofolate.
  • Tetrahydrofolate is an essential cofactor in the biosynthesis and metabolism of nucleic acids and amino acids. For example, methionine biosynthesis, a process necessary for the production of fungal sterols (e.g., ergosterols), is dependent on tetrahydrofolate.
  • the only source of tetrahydrofolate for fungi, bacteria, and parasites is the tetrahydrofolate synthesized de novo by DHFR.
  • DHFR inhibitors of DHFR inhibit nucleic acid/amino acid biosynthesis and cell division, resulting in cell death.
  • This mechanism of action of DHFR inhibitors enables this class of antifungal, antibacterial, and/or antiparasitic compounds to overcome many limitations of other therapies against fungal, bacterial, and/or parasitic infections, such as toxicity, limited activity, and resistance.
  • DHFR inhibitors described herein can be used either as monotherapies or in combination therapies with dihydropteroate synthase (DHPS) inhibitors and/or ergosterol synthesis inhibitors, both of which have synergistic effects when used in combination with DHFR inhibitors.

The disclosure features DHFR inhibitors having a diaminoquinazoline scaffold.

Description

SMALL MOLECULE INHIBITORS OF DIHYDROFOLATE REDUCTASE BACKGROUND
The need for novel antifungal, antibacterial, and antiparasitic treatments is significant and is especially critical in the medical field. Immunocompromised patients provide perhaps the greatest challenge to modern health care. The development of antifungal, antibacterial, and antiparasitic treatment regimens has been a continuing challenge.
Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) is an important enzyme in nucleic acid and amino acid synthesis in all cells. DHFR inhibitors can reduce nucleotide biosynthesis, inhibit DNA biosynthesis, and reduce cell division in pathogens. For example, DHFR is the target of the marketed antibacterial drug trimethoprim. Trimethoprim has a diaminopyrimidine scaffold which has structural constraints and a limited number of hydrogen-bonding residues that can interact with residues in the DHFR active site.
There is a need in the art for improved DHFR inhibitors having greater structural diversity and larger access to DHFR active site residues, thus providing antifungal, antibacterial, and antiparasitic therapies having greater efficacy, bioavailability, and reduced toxicity. SUMMARY
The disclosure features compositions and methods for the treatment of fungal, bacterial, and parasitic infections and inhibition of fungal, bacterial, and parasitic growth. In particular, such
compositions include dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitors having a diaminoquinazoline scaffold.
In one aspect, the disclosure features a compound described by formula (I)

Definitions
As used herein, the term“alkyl,”“alkenyl,” and“alkynyl” include straight-chain, branched-chain and cyclic monovalent substituents, as well as combinations of these, containing only C and H when unsubstituted. Examples include methyl, ethyl, isobutyl, cyclohexyl, cyclopentylethyl, 2-propenyl, 3-butynyl, and the like. The term“cycloalkyl,” as used herein, represents a monovalent saturated or unsaturated non-aromatic cyclic alkyl group having between three to nine carbons (e.g., a C3-C9 cycloalkyl), unless otherwise specified, and is exemplified by cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cycloheptyl, bicyclo[2.2.1.]heptyl, and the like. When the cycloalkyl group includes at least one carbon-carbon double bond, the cycloalkyl group can be referred to as a“cycloalkenyl” group.
Exemplary cycloalkenyl groups include cyclopentenyl, cyclohexenyl, and the like. When the cycloalkyl group includes at least one carbon-carbon triple bond, the cycloalkyl group can be referred to as a “cycloalkynyl” group. For the purposes herein, cycloalkenyl excludes aryl. When a list refers to what is otherwise the general term, e.g., alkyl, alkenyl, or alkynyl, and the cyclic form, e.g., cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, and cycloalkynyl, it will be understood that what is otherwise the general term refers only to acyclic radicals.
Typically, the alkyl, alkenyl, and alkynyl groups contain 1-12 carbons (e.g., C1-C12 alkyl) or 2-12 carbons (e.g., C2-C12 alkenyl or C2-C12 alkynyl). In some embodiments, the groups are C1-C8, C1-C6, C1-C4, C1-C3, or C1-C2 alkyl groups; or C2-C8, C2-C6, C2-C4, or C2-C3 alkenyl or alkynyl groups. Further, any hydrogen atom on one of these groups can be replaced with a substituent as described herein. For example, the term“aminoalkyl” refers to an alkyl group, as defined herein, comprising an optionally substituted amino group (e.g., NH2).
Heteroalkyl, heteroalkenyl, and heteroalkynyl are similarly defined and contain at least one carbon atom but also contain one or more heteroatoms independently selected from O, S, or N or combinations thereof within the backbone residue whereby each heteroatom in the heteroalkyl, heteroalkenyl, or heteroalkynyl group replaces one carbon atom of the alkyl, alkenyl, or alkynyl group to which the heteroform corresponds. In some embodiments, the heteroalkyl, heteroalkenyl, and heteroalkynyl groups have C at each terminus to which the group is attached to other groups, and the heteroatom(s) present are not located at a terminal position. As is understood in the art, these heteroforms do not contain more than three contiguous heteroatoms. In some embodiments, the heteroatom is O or N. The term“heterocyclyl,” as used herein, represents cyclic heteroalkyl or heteroalkenyl that is, e.g., a 3-, 4-, 5-, 6-, or 7-membered ring, unless otherwise specified, containing one, two, three, or four heteroatoms independently selected from the group consisting of N, O, and S. The 5- membered ring has zero to two double bonds, and the 6- and 7-membered rings have zero to three double bonds. The term“heterocyclyl” also represents a heterocyclic compound having a bridged multicyclic structure in which one or more carbons and/or heteroatoms bridges two non-adjacent members of a monocyclic ring, e.g., a quinuclidinyl group. The term“heterocyclyl” includes bicyclic, tricyclic, and tetracyclic groups in which any of the above heterocyclic rings is fused to one, two, or three carbocyclic rings, e.g., an aryl ring, a cyclohexane ring, a cyclohexene ring, a cyclopentane ring, a cyclopentene ring, or another monocyclic heterocyclic ring, such as indolyl, quinolyl, isoquinolyl, tetrahydroquinolyl, benzofuryl, benzothienyl and the like. When a list refers to what is otherwise the general term, e.g., heteroalkyl, heteroalkenyl, or heteroalkynyl, and the cyclic form, e.g., heterocyclyl, it will be understood that what is otherwise the general term refers only to acyclic radicals.
Heteroalkyl, heteroalkenyl, or heteroalkynyl substituents may also contain one or more carbonyl groups. Examples of heteroalkyl, heteroalkenyl and heteroalkynyl groups include CH2OCH3, CH2N(CH3)2, CH2OH, (CH2)nNR2, OR, COOR, CONR2, (CH2)nOR,(CH2)n COR, (CH2)nCOOR, (CH2)nSR, (CH2)nSOR, (CH2)nSO2R, (CH2)nCONR2, NRCOR, NRCOOR, OCONR2, OCOR, and the like where the R group in these examples of heteroalkyl, heteroalkenyl and heteroalkynyl groups contains at least one C and the size of the substituent is consistent with the definition of e.g., alkyl, alkenyl, and alkynyl, as described herein (e.g., n is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12).
As used herein, the terms“alkylene,”“alkenylene,”“alkynylene,” and the prefix“alk” refer to divalent or trivalent groups having a specified size, typically C1-C2, C1-C3, C1-C4, C1-C6, or C1-C8 for the saturated groups (e.g., alkylene or alk) and C2-C3, C2-C4, C2-C6, or C2-C8 for the unsaturated groups (e.g., alkenylene or alkynylene). They include straight-chain, branched-chain, and cyclic forms as well as combinations of these, containing only C and H when unsubstituted. Because they are divalent, they can link together two parts of a molecule. Examples are methylene, ethylene, propylene, cyclopropan-1,1-diyl, ethylidene, 2-butene-1,4-diyl, and the like. These groups can be substituted by the groups typically suitable as substituents for alkyl, alkenyl and alkynyl groups as set forth herein. Thus C=O is a C1 alkylene that is substituted by =O, for example. For example, the term“alkaryl,” as used herein, represents an aryl group, as defined herein, attached to the parent molecular group through an alkylene group, as defined herein, and the term“alkheteroaryl” refers to a heteroaryl group, as defined herein, attached to the parent molecular group through an alkylene group, as defined herein. The alkylene and the aryl or heteroaryl group are each optionally substituted as described herein.
Heteroalkylene, heteroalkenylene, and heteroalkynylene are similarly defined as divalent groups having a specified size, typically C1-C3, C1-C4, C1-C6, or C1-C8 for the saturated groups and C2-C3, C2-C4, C2-C6, or C2-C8 for the unsaturated groups. They include straight chain, branched chain and cyclic groups as well as combinations of these, and they further contain at least one carbon atom but also contain one or more O, S, or N heteroatoms or combinations thereof within the backbone residue, whereby each heteroatom in the heteroalkylene, heteroalkenylene or heteroalkynylene group replaces one carbon atom of the alkylene, alkenylene, or alkynylene group to which the heteroform corresponds. As is understood in the art, these heteroforms do not contain more than three contiguous heteroatoms.
The term“alkoxy” represents a chemical substituent of formula–OR, where the R in–OR is an optionally substituted alkyl group (e.g., C1-C6 alkyl group), unless otherwise specified. In some embodiments, the alkyl group can be substituted, e.g., the alkoxy group can have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 substituent groups as defined herein. The term“heteroalkoxy” contains one or more heteroatoms independently selected from O, S, or N or combinations thereof within the R in–OR. The heteroatoms in heteroalkoxy do not include the O in–OR.
The term“cycloalkoxy” represents a chemical substituent of formula -ORA, where the RA in–ORA is an optionally substituted cycloalkyl as defined herein. The term“heterocycloalkoxy” contains one or more heteroatoms independently selected from O, S, or N or combinations thereof within the RA in–ORA. The heteroatoms in heterocycloalkoxy do not include the O in–ORA.
The term“aryloxy” represents a chemical substituent of formula–ORB, where the RB in–ORB is an optionally substituted aryl as defined herein. The term“heteroaryloxy” contains one or more heteroatoms independently selected from O, S, or N or combinations thereof within the RB in–ORB. The heteroatoms in heteroaryloxy do not include the O in–ORB.
The term“amino,” as used herein, represents–N(RN1)2, where each RN1 is, independently, H, OH, NO2, N(RN2)2, SO2ORN2, SO2RN2, SORN2, an N-protecting group, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, aryl, alkaryl, cycloalkyl, alkcycloalkyl, heterocyclyl (e.g., heteroaryl), alkheterocyclyl (e.g., alkheteroaryl), or two RN1 combine to form a heterocyclyl or an N-protecting group, and where each RN2 is, independently, H, alkyl, or aryl. In a preferred embodiment, amino is–NH2, or–NRN1, where RN1 is, independently, OH, NO2, NH2, NRN22, SO2ORN2, SO2RN2, SORN2, alkyl, or aryl, and each RN2 can be H, alkyl, or aryl. The term“aminoalkyl,” as used herein, represents a heteroalkyl group, as defined herein, that is described as an alkyl group, as defined herein, substituted by an amino group, as defined herein. The alkyl and amino each can be further substituted with 1, 2, 3, or 4 substituent groups as described herein for the respective group. For example, the alkyl moiety may comprise an oxo (=O) substituent. An“aromatic” moiety or“aryl” moiety refers to any monocyclic or fused ring bicyclic system which has the characteristics of aromaticity in terms of electron distribution throughout the ring system and includes a monocyclic or fused bicyclic moiety such as phenyl or naphthyl;“heteroaromatic” or “heteroaryl” also refers to such monocyclic or fused bicyclic ring systems containing one or more heteroatoms selected from O, S and N. The inclusion of a heteroatom permits inclusion of 5-membered rings to be considered aromatic as well as 6-membered rings. Thus, typical aromatic/heteroaromatic systems include pyridyl, pyrimidyl, indolyl, benzimidazolyl, benzotriazolyl, isoquinolyl, quinolyl, benzothiazolyl, benzofuranyl, thienyl, furyl, pyrrolyl, thiazolyl, oxazolyl, isoxazolyl, benzoxazolyl, benzoisoxazolyl, imidazolyl and the like. Because tautomers are theoretically possible, phthalimido is also considered aromatic. Typically, the ring systems contain 5-12 ring member atoms or 6-10 ring member atoms. In some embodiments, the aromatic or heteroaromatic moiety is a 6-membered aromatic rings system optionally containing 1-2 nitrogen atoms. More particularly, the moiety is an optionally substituted phenyl, pyridyl, indolyl, pyrimidyl, pyridazinyl, benzothiazolyl, benzimidazolyl, pyrazolyl, imidazolyl, isoxazolyl, thiazolyl, benzothiazolyl, indolyl, or imidazopyridinyl. Even more particularly, such moiety is phenyl, pyridyl, thiazolyl, imidazopyridinyl, or pyrimidyl and even more particularly, it is phenyl.
The term“O-aryl” or“O-heteroaryl” refers to aromatic or heteroaromatic systems which are coupled to another residue through an oxygen atom. A typical example of an O-aryl is phenoxy.
Similarly,“arylalkyl” refers to aromatic and heteroaromatic systems which are coupled to another residue through a carbon chain, saturated or unsaturated, typically of C1-C8, C1-C6, or more particularly C1-C4 or C1-C3 when saturated or C2-C8, C2-C6, C2-C4, or C2-C3 when unsaturated, including the heteroforms thereof. For greater certainty, arylalkyl thus includes an aryl or heteroaryl group as defined above connected to an alkyl, heteroalkyl, alkenyl, heteroalkenyl, alkynyl, or heteroalkynyl moiety also as defined above. Typical arylalkyls would be an aryl(C6-C12)alkyl(C1-C8), aryl(C6-C12)alkenyl(C2-C8), or aryl(C6-C12)alkynyl(C2-C8), plus the heteroforms. A typical example is phenylmethyl, commonly referred to as benzyl.
The term“halo” or“halogen” may refer to any halogen atom, especially F, Cl, Br, or I, and more particularly it is fluoro or chloro.
The term“hydroxyl,” as used herein, represents an -OH group.
An“oxo” group is a substituent having the structure =O, where there is a double bond between a carbon and an oxygen atom.
Typical optional substituents on aromatic or heteroaromatic groups include independently halo, such as chloro or fluoro, CN, NO2, CF3, OCF3, COOR’, CONR’2, OR’, SR’, SOR’, SO2R’, NR’2,
NR’(CO)R’,NR’C(O)OR’, NR’C(O)NR’2, NR’SO2NR’2, or NR’SO2R’, where each R’ is independently H or an optionally substituted group selected from alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, cycloalkynyl, heterocyclyl, heteroalkyl, heteroalkenyl, heteroalkynyl, heteroaryl, and aryl (all as defined above); or the substituent may be an optionally substituted group selected from alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, heteroalkyl, heteroalkenyl, heteroalkynyl, aryl, heteroaryl, O-aryl, O-heteroaryl and arylalkyl. I
Optional substituents on a non-aromatic group (e.g., alkyl, alkenyl, and alkynyl groups), are typically selected from the same list of substituents suitable for aromatic or heteroaromatic groups, except as noted otherwise herein. A non-aromatic group may also include an optional substituent selected from =O and =NOR’ where R’ is H or an optionally substituted group selected from alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, cycloalkynyl, heterocyclyl, heteroalkyl, heteroalkenyl, heteralkynyl, heteroaryl, and aryl (all as defined above).
In general, a substituent group (e.g., alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, or aryl, including all heteroforms defined above) may itself optionally be substituted by additional substituents. The nature of these substituents is similar to those recited with regard to the substituents on the basic structures above. Thus, where an embodiment of a substituent is alkyl, this alkyl may optionally be substituted by the remaining substituents listed as substituents where this makes chemical sense, and where this does not undermine the size limit of alkyl per se; e.g., alkyl substituted by alkyl or by alkenyl would simply extend the upper limit of carbon atoms for these embodiments, and is not included. However, alkyl substituted by aryl, amino, halo (preferably chloro or fluoro) and the like would be included. For example, where a group is substituted, the group may be substituted with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 substituents. Optional substituents include, but are not limited to, C1-C6 alkyl or heteroaryl, C2-C6 alkenyl, or heteroalkenyl, C2- C6 alkynyl or heteroalkynyl, halogen; aryl, heteroaryl, azido(-N3), nitro (-NO2), cyano (-CN),
acyloxy(-OC(=O)R’), acyl (-C(=O)R’), alkoxy (-OR’), amido (-NR’C(=O)R”, or–C(=O)NRR’), amino (-NRR’), carboxylic acid (-CO2H), carboxylic ester (-CO2R’), carbamoyl (-OC(=O)NR’R” or -NRC(=O)OR’), hydroxy (-OH), isocyano (-NC), silyl (-SiRR’R”) sulfonate (-S(=O)2OR), sulfonamide (-S(=O)2NRR’ or– NRS(=O)2R’), or sulfonyl (-S(=O)2R), where each R, R’, or R” in the optional substituents is selected, independently, from H, C1-C6 alkyl, or heteroaryl, C2-C6 alkenyl, or heteroalkenyl, C2-C6alkynyl ,or heteroalkynyl, aryl, or heteroaryl. A substituted group may have, for example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 substituents. Acyclic alkyl groups may not be substituted with aryl or heterocyclyl unless specifically stated.
The terms“dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor” and“DHFR inhibitor,” as used herein, refer to compounds that bind to DHFR and disrupt, inhibit, and/or prevent its natural function, thus, causing malfunction in cell division. DHFR is an enzyme that reduces dihydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate, which is an essential cofactor in the biosynthesis and metabolism of nucleic acids and amino acids. In some embodiments, DHFR inhibitors described herein are selective for fungal, bacterial, and/or parasitic DHFR over host DHFR (i.e., human DHFR). In some embodiments, DHFR inhibitors described herein inhibit the growth of fungi in the genus Candida, Aspergillus, Cryptococcus, Fusarium, Cunninghamella, and Scedosporium, and/or fungi in the order Mucorales.
The terms“dihydropteroate synthase inhibitor” and“DHPS inhibitor,” as used herein, refer to compounds that bind to the enzyme DHPS and disrupt, inhibit, or prevent its natural function. An example of a DHPS inhibitor is sulfamethoxazole.
The term“ergosterol synthesis inhibitor,” as used herein, refers to compounds that interfere with, inhibit, and/or prevent the synthesis of ergosterol. Ergosterol synthesis inhibitors may inhibit one or more enzymes in the biosynthetic pathway of ergosterol. Ergosterol synthesis inhibitors include, but are not limited to, compounds that inhibit fungal 14α-demethylase and squalene epoxidase.
The term“14α-demethylase inhibitor,” as used herein, refers to compounds that bind to the enzyme 14α-demethylase and disrupt, inhibit, and/or prevent its natural function. The enzyme 14α- demethylase is a cytochrome P450 enzyme that catalyzes the removal of the C-14 α-methyl group from lanosterol before lanosterol is converted to ergosterol. Therefore, by inhibiting 14α-demethylase, the synthesis of ergosterol is inhibited. Examples of 14α-demethylase inhibitors include, but are not limited to, azole compounds. Azole compounds refer to compounds that contain an azole group, which is a five- membered heterocyclic ring having at least one N and one or more heteroatoms selected from N, O, and S. Examples of 14α-demethylase inhibitors include, but are not limited to, VT-1161, fluconazole, albaconazole, bifonazole, butoconazole, clotrimazole, econazole, efinaconazole, fenticonazole, isavuconazole, isoconazole, itraconazole, ketoconazole, luliconazole, miconazole, omoconazole, oxiconazole, posaconazole, pramiconazole, ravuconazole, sertaconazole, sulconazole, terconazole, tioconazole, and voriconazole.
The term“squalene epoxidase inhibitor,” as used herein, refers to compounds that bind to the enzyme squalene epoxidase and disrupt, inhibit, and/or prevent its natural function. Squalene epoxidase is a mono-oxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of squalene to 2,3-oxidosqualene in the biosynthetic pathway of ergosterol. Therefore, by inhibiting squalene epoxidase, the synthesis of ergosterol is also inhibited. Examples of squalene epoxidase inhibitors include, but are not limited to, allylamine compounds. Allylamine compounds refer to compounds that contain an allylamine group, which is
described by the formula

Examples of squalene epoxide inhibitors include, but are not limited to, terbinafine, butenafine, naftifine, and amorolfine.
The term“methotrexate rescue compound,” refers to a compound that is used to block or reverse the effects of methotrexate. Methotrexate, as conventionally known in the art, is a drug used in the treatments of cancers and autoimmune disorders. Methotrexate binds to DHFR to inhibit its function and thus, kills cells by blocking DNA synthesis. Methotrexate rescue is a technique used in cancer chemotherapy in which folic acid derivatives, such as leucovorin (a reduced folic acid), is administered in combination with methotrexate as an antidote to reverse the effects of methotrexate and to prevent methotrexate toxicity. As used herein, a methotrexate rescue compound blocks or reverses the effects of a DHFR inhibitor compound described herein. A methotrexate rescue compound may be used in combination with a DHFR inhibitor compound described herein. Examples of methotrexate rescue compounds include, but are not limited to, leucovorin, wellcovorin, and fusilev. In some embodiments, the methotrexate rescue compound used in combination with a DHFR inhibitor compound described herein is leucovorin.

Synthetic dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitors are useful in the treatment of fungal, bacterial, and/or parasitic infections. The inventors have found that DHFR inhibitors described herein have antifungal, antibacterial, and/or antiparasitic activities due to their ability to efficiently bind to DHFR and inhibit its function, resulting in inhibition of DNA biosynthesis and reduced cell division. DHFR inhibitors described herein include, without limitation, compounds described in Examples 2-165. As is described herein, certain of the DHFR inhibitors exhibit broad spectrum activity, while certain of the DHFR inhibitors inhibit fungal DHFR to a greater extent than they inhibit human DHFR. I. DHFR inhibitors
DHFR catalyzes the reduction of dihydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate and at a slower rate, the conversion of folate to tetrahydrofolate. Tetrahydrofolate is an essential cofactor in the biosynthesis and metabolism of nucleic acids and amino acids. For example, methionine biosynthesis, a process necessary for the production of fungal sterols (e.g., ergosterols), is dependent on tetrahydrofolate. The only source of tetrahydrofolate for fungi, bacteria, and parasites is the tetrahydrofolate synthesized de novo by DHFR. Thus, inhibitors of DHFR inhibit nucleic acid/amino acid biosynthesis and cell division, resulting in cell death. This mechanism of action of DHFR inhibitors enables this class of antifungal, antibacterial, and/or antiparasitic compounds to overcome many limitations of other therapies against fungal, bacterial, and/or parasitic infections, such as toxicity, limited activity, and resistance. Furthermore, DHFR inhibitors described herein can be used either as monotherapies or in combination therapies with dihydropteroate synthase (DHPS) inhibitors and/or ergosterol synthesis inhibitors, both of which have synergistic effects when used in combination with DHFR inhibitors.
The inventors have identified DHFR inhibitors that can be used in the treatment of various human diseases, such as fungal, bacterial, and/or parasitic infections, psoriasis, autoimmune diseases, and neoplastic diseases. DHFR inhibitors described herein exhibit antifungal activities against fungi in the genus, e.g., Candida, Asperigllus, Cryptococcus, Fusarium, Cunninghamella, Scedosporium spp. and the order Mucorales. Fungi in the genus Asperigllus, Fusarium, and Mucor have been the predominant moulds isolated from cultures of wounds, such as wounds from combat-related trauma, burn, and blast injuries. DHFR inhibitors described herein also exhibit low Ki values and high selectivity for fungal, bacterial, and/or parasitic DHFR over human DHFR. The disclosure features DHFR inhibitors having a diaminoquinazoline scaffold. Exemplary DHFR inhibitors described herein include, without limitation, compounds having formula (I)

Acceptable carriers and excipients may include buffers such as phosphate, citrate, HEPES, and TAE, antioxidants such as ascorbic acid and methionine, preservatives such as hexamethonium chloride, octadecyldimethylbenzyl ammonium chloride, resorcinol, and benzalkonium chloride, proteins such as human serum albumin, gelatin, dextran, and
immunoglobulins, hydrophilic polymers such as polyvinylpyrrolidone, amino acids such as glycine, glutamine, histidine, and lysine, and carbohydrates such as glucose, mannose, sucrose, and sorbitol.
The pharmaceutical compositions described herein can be administered parenterally in the form of an injectable formulation. Pharmaceutical compositions for injection can be formulated using a sterile solution or any pharmaceutically acceptable liquid as a vehicle. Pharmaceutically acceptable vehicles include, but are not limited to, sterile water, physiological saline, and cell culture media (e.g., Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM), α-Modified Eagles Medium (α-MEM), F-12 medium). Formulation methods are known in the art, see e.g., Banga (ed.) Therapeutic Peptides and Proteins: Formulation, Processing and Delivery Systems (2nd ed.) Taylor & Francis Group, CRC Press (2006).
The pharmaceutical compositions can be prepared in the form of an oral formulation.
Formulations for oral use include tablets containing the active ingredient(s) in a mixture with non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. These excipients may be, for example, inert diluents or fillers (e.g., sucrose, sorbitol, sugar, mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, starches including potato starch, calcium carbonate, sodium chloride, lactose, calcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, or sodium phosphate); granulating and disintegrating agents (e.g., cellulose derivatives including microcrystalline cellulose, starches including potato starch, croscarmellose sodium, alginates, or alginic acid); binding agents (e.g., sucrose, glucose, sorbitol, acacia, alginic acid, sodium alginate, gelatin, starch, pregelatinized starch, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium aluminum silicate, carboxymethylcellulose sodium,
methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, ethylcellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, or polyethylene glycol); and lubricating agents, glidants, and antiadhesives (e.g., magnesium stearate, zinc stearate, stearic acid, silicas, hydrogenated vegetable oils, or talc). Other pharmaceutically acceptable excipients can be colorants, flavoring agents, plasticizers, humectants, buffering agents, and the like. Formulations for oral use may also be provided as chewable tablets, or as hard gelatin capsules wherein the active ingredient is mixed with an inert solid diluent (e.g., potato starch, lactose, microcrystalline cellulose, 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. Powders, granulates, and pellets may be prepared using the ingredients mentioned above under tablets and capsules in a conventional manner using, e.g., a mixer, a fluid bed apparatus or a spray drying equipment.
The pharmaceutical composition may be formed in a unit dose form as needed. The amounts of active components, e.g., the DHFR inhibitor compound described herein, included in the pharmaceutical preparations are such that a suitable dose within the designated range is provided (e.g., a dose within the range of 0.01-100 mg/kg of body weight). III. Routes, Dosage, and Administration
Pharmaceutical compositions that include the DHFR inhibitor compounds described herein may be formulated for, e.g., intravenous administration, parenteral administration, subcutaneous
administration, intramuscular administration, intra-arterial administration, intrathecal administration, or intraperitoneal administration. The pharmaceutical composition may also be formulated for, or administered via, oral, nasal, spray, aerosol, rectal, or vaginal administration. For injectable formulations, various effective pharmaceutical carriers are known in the art. See, e.g., Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 22th ed., (2012) and ASHP Handbook on Injectable Drugs, 18th ed., (2014).
The dosage of the pharmaceutical compositions depends on factors including the route of administration, the disease to be treated, and physical characteristics, e.g., age, weight, general health, of the subject. Typically, the amount of the pharmaceutical composition contained within a single dose may be an amount that effectively prevents, delays, or treats the disease without inducing significant toxicity. A pharmaceutical composition may include a dosage of a DHFR inhibitor compound described herein ranging from 0.01 to 500 mg/kg (e.g., 0.01, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, or 500 mg/kg) and, in a more specific embodiment, about 0.1 to about 30 mg/kg and, in a more specific embodiment, about 1 to about 30 mg/kg. The dosage may be adapted by the physician in accordance with conventional factors such as the extent of the disease and different parameters of the subject.
The pharmaceutical compositions are administered in a manner compatible with the dosage formulation and in such amount as is therapeutically effective to result in an improvement or remediation of the symptoms. The pharmaceutical compositions are administered in a variety of dosage forms, e.g., intravenous dosage forms, subcutaneous dosage forms, and oral dosage forms (e.g., ingestible solutions, drug release capsules). The pharmaceutical composition may be in the form of, e.g., tablets, capsules, pills, powders, granulates, suspensions, emulsions, solutions, gels including hydrogels, pastes, ointments, creams, plasters, drenches, osmotic delivery devices, suppositories, enemγas, injectables, implants, sprays, preparations suitable for iontophoretic delivery, or aerosols. The compositions may be formulated according to conventional pharmaceutical practice. Pharmaceutical compositions may be administered to a subject in need thereof, for example, one or more times (e.g., 1-10 times or more) daily, weekly, monthly, biannually, annually, or as medically necessary. Dosages may be provided in either a single or multiple dosage regimens. The timing between administrations may decrease as the medical condition improves or increase as the health of the patient declines. IV. Treatment of Fungal, Bacterial, and/or Parasitic Infections

Part A. Generation, expression and purification of DHFR proteins
Full length DHFR ORFs were PCR amplified and cloned into the NcoI and XhoI sites of pET28a (Novagen). The resulting clones contained a C-terminal hexahistadine tag. Sequence verified clones were transformed to the expression strain, E. coli BL21(DE3). Fermentation and purification conditions for all proteins were as follows: Cells were grown at 37°C in 1 liter of Terrific Broth and induced with 1 mM IPTG once an OD600 of 0.8 was reached. The cells were harvested after an additional 12 hours of growth at 18°C. The cell pellets were resuspended in 50 mM Tris pH 8.0, 200 mM NaCl. Sonication was used to lyse the cells and the lysate was cleared by centrifugation. The supernatant was loaded onto a bed of Ni-NTA agarose and eluted with a gradient of imidazole in 50 mM Tris pH 8.0, 200 mM NaCl. The final chromatographic step was anion exchange (HiTrap Q HP from GE Healthcare) using a linear gradient of 25 mM Tris pH 8.0, 25-500 mM NaCl, while collecting fractions over 10 column volumes. The full-length DHFR proteins were soluble when overexpressed and were purified to > 98% purity (as determined by SDS-PAGE). Part B. DHFR Inhibition Assay
DHFR enzyme activity assays were performed at 25°C by monitoring the change in UV absorbance at 340 nM in a solution containing 25 mM Tris (hydroxymethyl)methyl-2aminoethanesulfonic acic (pH 8.0), 25 mM NaCl, 1 mg/ml bovine serum albumin, 200 µM NADPH, and 5-8 nM DHFR enzyme. Inhibitor potency was determined by incubating the target enzyme in the presence of various concentrations of inhibitor ranging between 1.5 nM and 50 µM for 10 minutes prior to addition of 150 µM dihydrofolate. The final concentration of DMSO was kept constant at 2.0% (v/v). Enzyme activity in the presence of inhibitor was expressed relative to the no-inhibitor control and Ki values determined using Morrison tight-binding equation to account for ligand depletion. All analysis was carried out using GraphPad Prism 6.0. All assay components were purchased from Sigma.
The DHFR inhibition of selected compounds in Examples 2-233 using enzyme derived from C. albicans, C. neoformans, A. fumigatus and H. sapiens as described above is indicated in Table 1. Table 1. Inhibition of DHFR by Selected Compounds in Examples 2-233

Example 235. Antifungal Activities of Selected Compounds in Examples 2-233
Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum effective concentration (MEC) assays were performed according to CLSI broth microdilution guidelines (M27-A3, M27-S4, and M38-A2) with the exception of using a 100 µL assay volume and preparing stock compounds at 50X final concentration. Briefly, starting solutions of all antifungal compounds were prepared in 100% DMSO. Stock
concentrations were made at 50X the highest final assay concentration and serially diluted 2-fold, 12 times in a 96-well PCR plate (VWR cat. no.83007-374). Candida, Cryptococcus and Aspergillus suspensions from Sabouraud dextrose agar plate cultures were prepared in 0.85% saline at ~0.1 OD530 nm or at ~0.16 OD530 nm for Mucorales, Fusarium and Scedosporium strains. Candida and
Cryptococcus suspensions were diluted 1:500 in RPMI (MP Biomedicals, cat no.1060124; buffered with MOPS and adjusted with NaOH to pH 7.0) to a concentration of 0.5-2.5 x 103 CFU/mL and Aspergillus, Mucorales, Fusarium, and Scedosporium suspensions were diluted 1:50 in RPMI to 0.4-5 x 104 CFU/mL final concentration. 98 µL of each cell suspension in RPMI were added to test wells in a 96-well assay plate (Costar cat. no.3370). A Beckman Multimek 96 liquid handling robot was used to dispense 2 µL of each 50X stock compound into the plate containing 98 µL of each strain in RPMI (2% final solvent concentration). Plates were shaken then incubated at 35°C for 24 h (Candida, Aspergillus, and
Mucorales), 48 h (Fusarium), or 72 h (Cryptococcus and Scedosporium) prior to reading. MIC values were read visually at 50% and 100% growth inhibition for DHFR inhibitors, 100% for Amphotericin B and Voriconazole, and 50% for Fluconazole and Caspofungin. MEC values were read for caspofungin with the aid of a microscope at the lowest drug concentration where rounded/compact hyphal morphology was observed. The antifungal activities of selected compounds in Examples 2-233 against various fungal species are shown in Tables 2, 3 and 4. Table 2. Antifungal Activities of Selected Compounds in Examples 2-233 against C. albicans, A.
fumigatus, and C. neoformans.
