Description

GLUCOSE TRANSPORT INHIBITORS The present invention relates to chemical compounds that selectively inhibit glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), to methods of preparing said compounds, to pharmaceutical compositions and combinations comprising said compounds, to the use of said compounds for manufacturing a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment or prophylaxis of a disease, as well as to intermediate compounds useful in the preparation of said compounds.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Glucose is an essential substrate for metabolism in most cells. Because glucose is a polar molecule, transport through biological membranes requires specific transport proteins. Transport of glucose through the apical membrane of intestinal and kidney epithelial cells depends on the presence of secondary active Na+/glucose symporters, SGLT-1 and SGLT-2, which concentrate glucose inside the cells, using the energy provided by co-transport of Na+ ions down their electrochemical gradient. Facilitated diffusion of glucose through the cellular membrane is otherwise catalyzed by glucose carriers (protein symbol GLUT, gene symbol SLC2 for Solute Carrier Family 2) that belong to a superfamily of transport facilitators (major facilitator superfamily) including organic anion and cation transporters, yeast hexose transporter, plant hexose/proton symporters, and bacterial sugar/proton symporters. Basal glucose transporters (GLUTs) function as glucose channels and are required for maintaining the basic glucose needs of cells. These GLUTs are constitutively expressed and functional in cells and are not regulated by (or sensitive to) insulin. All cells use both glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria but rely overwhelmingly on oxidative phosphorylation when oxygen is abundant, switching to glycolysis at times of oxygen deprivation (hypoxia), as it occurs in cancer. In glycolysis, glucose is converted to pyruvate and two ATP molecules are generated in the process. Cancer cells, because of their faster proliferation rates, are predominantly in a hypoxic (low oxygen) state. Therefore, cancer cells use glycolysis (lactate formation) as their predominant glucose metabolism pathway. Such a glycolytic switch not only gives cancer higher potentials for metastasis and invasiveness, but also increases cancer's vulnerability to external interference in glycolysis. The reduction of basal glucose transport is likely to restrict glucose supply to cancer cells, leading to glucose deprivation that forces cancer cells to slow down growth or to starve.
All known GLUT proteins contain 12 transmembrane domains and transport glucose by facilitating diffusion, an energy-independent process. GLUT1 transports glucose into cells probably by altemating its conformation. According to this model, GLUT1 exposes a single substrate-binding site toward either the outside or the inside of the cell. Binding of glucose to one site triggers a conformational change, releasing glucose to the other side of the membrane. Results of transgenic and knockout animal studies support an important role for these transporters in the control of glucose utilization, glucose storage and glucose sensing. The GLUT proteins differ in their kinetics and are tailored to the needs of the cell types they serve. Although more than one GLUT protein may be expressed by a particular cell type, cancers frequently overexpress GLUT1, which is a high affinity glucose transporter, and its expression level is correlated with invasiveness and metastasis potentials of cancers, indicating the importance of upregulation of glucose transport in cancer cell growth and in the severity of cancer malignancy. GLUT1 expression was also found to be significantly higher than that of any other glucose transporters. Evidence indicates that cancer cells are more sensitive to glucose deprivation than normal cells. Numerous studies strongly suggest that basal glucose transport inhibition induces apoptosis and blocks cancer cell growth. Anti- angiogenesis has been shown to be a very effective way to restrict cancer growth and cause cancer ablation. Reduced GLUT1 expression following transfection of GLUT1 antisense cDNA into cancer cell lines has been shown to suppress cell growth in vitro and tumor growth in vivo, and to reduce in vitro invasiveness of cells (Noguchi Y. et al. Cancer Lett 154(2), 2000, 175–182; Ito S. et al. J Natl Cancer Inst 94(14), 2002, 1080–1091). It has been demonstrated that GLUT1 is the most highly expressed hexose transporter in ErbB2- and PyVMT-induced mouse mammary carcinoma models, and that reducing the level of GLUT1 using shRNA or Cre/lox results in reduced glucose usage, reduced growth on plastic and in soft agar, and impaired tumor growth in nude mice (Christian D. Young et al., PLoS ONE, August 2011, Volume 6, Issue 8, e23205, 1-12). Therefore, inhibition of GLUT1 represents a promising approach for the treatment of proliferative disorders including solid tumours such as carcinomas and sarcomas and leukaemias and lymphoid malignancies or other disorders associated with uncontrolled cellular proliferation.

As used herein, the term“leaving group” refers to an atom or a group of atoms that is displaced in a chemical reaction as stable species taking with it the bonding electrons. The leaving group as used herein is suitable for nucleophilic aliphatic and/or aromatic substitution, e.g. a halogen atom, in particular chloro-, bromo- or iodo-, or a group selected from methanesulfonyloxy-, p-toluenesulfonyloxy-, trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy-, nonafluorobutanesulfonyloxy-, (4-bromo-benzene)sulfonyloxy-, (4-nitro-benzene)sulfonyloxy-, (2-nitro-benzene)-sulfonyloxy-, (4-isopropyl-benzene)sulfonyloxy-, (2,4,6-tri-isopropyl-benzene)-sulfonyloxy-, (2,4,6-trimethyl-benzene)sulfonyloxy-, (4-tert-butyl-benzene)sulfonyloxy-, benzenesulfonyloxy-, and (4-methoxy-benzene)sulfonyloxy-. As used herein, the term“protective group” is a protective group attached to a nitrogen in intermediates used for the preparation of compounds of the general formula (I). Such groups are introduced e.g. by chemical modification of the respective amino group in order to obtain chemoselectivity in a subsequent chemical reaction. Protective groups for amino groups are descibed for example in T.W. Greene and P.G.M. Wuts in Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 3rd edition, Wiley 1999; more specifically, said groups can be selected from substituted sulfonyl groups, such as mesyl-, tosyl- or phenylsulfonyl-, acyl groups such as benzoyl-, acetyl- or tetrahydropyranoyl-, or carbamate based groups, such as tert.-butoxycarbonyl- (Boc), or can include silicon, as in e.g. 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxymethyl- (SEM). As used herein, the term“one or more times”, e.g. in the definition of the substituents of the compounds of the general formulae of the present invention, is understood as meaning“one, two, three, four or five times, particularly one, two, three or four times, more particularly one, two or three times, even more particularly one or two times”. Where the plural form of the word compounds, salts, polymorphs, hydrates, solvates and the like, is used herein, this is taken to mean also a single compound, salt, polymorph, isomer, hydrate, solvate or the like. The compounds of this invention contain one or more asymmetric centres, depending upon the location and nature of the various substituents desired. Asymmetric carbon atoms may be present in the (R) or (S) configuration. In certain instances, asymmetry may also be present due to restricted rotation about a given bond, for example, the central bond adjoining two substituted aromatic rings of the specified compounds. Substituents on a ring may also be present in either cis or trans form. It is intended that all such configurations are included within the scope of the present invention. Preferred compounds are those which produce the more desirable biological activity. Separated, pure or partially purified isomers and stereoisomers or racemic or diastereomeric mixtures of the compounds of this invention are also included within the scope of the present invention. The purification and the separation of such materials can be accomplished by standard techniques known in the art. The optical isomers can be obtained by resolution of the racemic mixtures according to conventional processes, for example, by the formation of diastereoisomeric salts using an optically active acid or base or formation of covalent diastereomers. Examples of appropriate acids are tartaric, diacetyltartaric, ditoluoyltartaric and camphorsulfonic acid. Mixtures of diastereoisomers can be separated into their individual diastereomers on the basis of their physical and/or chemical differences by methods known in the art, for example, by chromatography or fractional crystallisation. The optically active bases or acids are then liberated from the separated diastereomeric salts. A different process for separation of optical isomers involves the use of chiral chromatography (e.g., chiral HPLC columns), with or without conventional derivatisation, optimally chosen to maximise the separation of the enantiomers. Suitable chiral HPLC columns are manufactured by Diacel, e.g., Chiracel OD and Chiracel OJ among many others, all routinely selectable. Enzymatic separations, with or without derivatisation, are also useful. The optically active compounds of this invention can likewise be obtained by chiral syntheses utilizing optically active starting materials. In order to limit different types of isomers from each other reference is made to IUPAC Rules Section E (Pure Appl Chem 45, 11-30, 1976). The invention also includes all suitable isotopic variations of a compound of the invention. An isotopic variation of a compound of the invention is defined as one in which at least one atom is replaced by an atom having the same atomic number but an atomic mass different from the atomic mass usually or predominantly found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into a compound of the invention include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulphur, fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine, such as 2H (deuterium), 3H (tritium), 11C, 13C, 14C, 15N, 17O, 18O, 32P, 33P, 33S, 34S, 35S, 36S, 18F, 36Cl, 82Br, 123I, 124I, 129I and 131I, respectively. Certain isotopic variations of a compound of the invention, for example, those in which one or more radioactive isotopes such as 3H or 14C are incorporated, are useful in drug and/or substrate tissue distribution studies. Tritiated and carbon-14, i.e., 14C, isotopes are particularly preferred for their ease of preparation and detectability. Further, substitution with isotopes such as deuterium may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example, increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements and hence may be preferred in some circumstances. Isotopic variations of a compound of the invention can generally be prepared by conventional procedures known by a person skilled in the art such as by the illustrative methods or by the preparations described in the examples hereafter using appropriate isotopic variations of suitable reagents. The present invention includes all possible stereoisomers of the compounds of the present invention as single stereoisomers, or as any mixture of said stereoisomers, in any ratio. Isolation of a single stereoisomer, e.g. a single enantiomer or a single diastereomer, of a compound of the present invention may be achieved by any suitable state of the art method, such as chromatography, especially chiral chromatography, for example. Further, the compounds of the present invention may exist as tautomers. For example, any compound of the present invention which contains a pyrazole moiety as a heteroaryl group for example can exist as a 1H tautomer, or a 2H tautomer, or even a mixture in any amount of the two tautomers, or a triazole moiety for example can exist as a 1H tautomer, a 2H tautomer, or a 4H tautomer, or even a mixture in any amount of said 1H, 2H and 4H tautomers, viz. :

The present invention includes all possible tautomers of the compounds of the present invention as single tautomers, or as any mixture of said tautomers, in any ratio. Further, the compounds of the present invention can exist as N-oxides, which are defined in that at least one nitrogen of the compounds of the present invention is oxidised. The present invention includes all such possible N-oxides. The present invention also relates to useful forms of the compounds as disclosed herein, such as metabolites, hydrates, solvates, prodrugs, salts, in particular pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and co-precipitates. The compounds of the present invention can exist as a hydrate, or as a solvate, wherein the compounds of the present invention contain polar solvents, in particular water, methanol or ethanol for example as structural element of the crystal lattice of the compounds. The amount of polar solvents, in particular water, may exist in a stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric ratio. In the case of stoichiometric solvates, e.g. a hydrate, hemi-, (semi-), mono-, sesqui-, di-, tri- , tetra-, penta- etc. solvates or hydrates, respectively, are possible. The present invention includes all such hydrates or solvates. Further, the compounds of the present invention can exist in free form, e.g. as a free base, or as a free acid, or as a zwitterion, or can exist in the form of a salt. Said salt may be any salt, either an organic or inorganic addition salt, particularly any pharmaceutically acceptable organic or inorganic addition salt, customarily used in pharmacy. The term“pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a relatively non-toxic, inorganic or organic acid addition salt of a compound of the present invention. For example, see S. M. Berge, et al.“Pharmaceutical Salts,” J. Pharm. Sci. 1977, 66, 1-19. The present invention includes all possible salts of the compounds of the present invention as single salts, or as any mixture of said salts, in any ratio. Furthermore, the present invention includes all possible crystalline forms, or polymorphs, of the compounds of the present invention, either as single polymorphs, or as a mixture of more than one polymorphs, in any ratio.

These disorders have been well characterized in humans, but also exist with a similar etiology in other mammals, and can be treated by administering pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention. The term“treating” or“treatment” as stated throughout this document is used conventionally, e.g., the management or care of a subject for the purpose of combating, alleviating, reducing, relieving, improving the condition of, etc., of a disease or disorder, such as a carcinoma. Based upon standard laboratory techniques known to evaluate compounds useful for the treatment of hyper-proliferative disorders and angiogenic disorders, by standard toxicity tests and by standard pharmacological assays for the determination of treatment of the conditions identified above in mammals, and by comparison of these results with the results of known medicaments that are used to treat these conditions, the effective dosage of the compounds of this invention can readily be determined for treatment of each desired indication. The amount of the active ingredient to be administered in the treatment of one of these conditions can vary widely according to such considerations as the particular compound and dosage unit employed, the mode of administration, the period of treatment, the age and sex of the patient treated, and the nature and extent of the condition treated. The total amount of the active ingredient to be administered will generally range from about 0.001 mg/kg to about 200 mg/kg body weight per day, and preferably from about 0.01 mg/kg to about 20 mg/kg body weight per day. Clinically useful dosing schedules will range from one to three times a day dosing to once every four weeks dosing. In addition, "drug holidays" in which a patient is not dosed with a drug for a certain period of time, may be beneficial to the overall balance between pharmacological effect and tolerability. A unit dosage may contain from about 0.5 mg to about 1500 mg of active ingredient, and can be administered one or more times per day or less than once a day. The average daily dosage for administration by injection, including intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous and parenteral injections, and use of infusion techniques will preferably be from 0.01 to 200 mg/kg of total body weight. The average daily rectal dosage regimen will preferably be from 0.01 to 200 mg/kg of total body weight.

The transdermal concentration will preferably be that required to maintain a daily dose of from 0.01 to 200 mg/kg. The average daily inhalation dosage regimen will preferably be from 0.01 to 100 mg/kg of total body weight. Of course the specific initial and continuing dosage regimen for each patient will vary according to the nature and severity of the condition as determined by the attending diagnostician, the activity of the specific compound employed, the age and general condition of the patient, time of administration, route of administration, rate of excretion of the drug, drug combinations, and the like. The desired mode of treatment and number of doses of a compound of the present invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester or composition thereof can be ascertained by those skilled in the art using conventional treatment tests. General synthesis of compounds of general formula (I) of the present invention The following paragraphs outline a variety of synthetic approaches suitable to prepare compounds of the general formula (I), and intermediates useful for their synthesis.
In addition to the routes described below, also other routes may be used to synthesise the target compounds, in accordance with common general knowledge of a person skilled in the art of organic synthesis. The order of transformations exemplified in the following schemes is therefore not intended to be limiting, and suitable synthesis steps from various schemes can be combined to form additional synthesis sequences. In addition, interconversion of any of the substituents, in particular R1, R3, R4a, R4b, R5a, R5b, R5c or R5d, as well as of the R6 group attached to R2 via -(L2)p-, can be achieved before and/or after the exemplified transformations.

Scheme 7: Preparation of quinoline-4-carboxylic acid derivatives of formula (III) from indole-2,3-diones of formula (XIV). Indole-2,3-diones of formula (XIV) are well known to the person skilled in the art and are either commercially available or can be prepared by methods described e.g. in Chinese Chemical Letters, 2013, p. 929; J. Med. Chem. 2006, p. 4638. Carbonyl compounds of formula (XV) can be purchased commercially in wide structural variety. The chemical reactivity of groups R4a present in compounds of formula (III) can be modulated as a result of the neighbouring ring nitrogen atom, thus allowing for chemoselective manipulation of R4a. This may be exemplified by (but is not limited to) the synthesis of a subset of said quinoline-4-carboxylic acid derivatives described by formula (IIId), in which R4a is represented by a group -C(=O)N(R10a)R10b, as outlined in Scheme 8. Diacids of the formula (IIIa), which are available e.g. by reacting pyruvic acid with an indole-2,3-dione of formula (XIV) according to Scheme 7, can be converted readily into the respective diesters of formula (IIIb), in which R4b, R5a, R5b, R5c and R5d are as defined for the compounds of general formula (I-1) or (I-2), and in which RE2 represents C1- C3-alkyl-, by conversion of the carboxy groups into acyl halides using methods well known to the person skilled in the art, e.g. by reaction with thionyl chloride, followed by solvolysis in an aliphatic alcohol of the formula C1-C3- alkyl-OH, preferably methanol. The resulting diesters of formula (IIIb) are then reacted with an amine of formula (XIII), in which R10a and R10b are as defined for the compounds of general formula (I-1) or (I-2), to give monoamides of formula (IIIc), which are subsequently subjected to ester hydrolysis by methods known to the person skilled in the art, preferably by an alkali hydroxide in an aqueous aliphatic alcohol of the formula C1-C3-alkyl-OH, to give the quinoline- 4-carboxylic acid derivatives of formula (IIId). The sequences of protocols describing the preparation of Intermediates 2A, 3A, 4A, 5A, 6A and 7A in the experimental part below constitute instructive examples for this reaction sequence.

Biological Evaluation
In order that this invention may be better understood, the following examples are set forth. These examples are for the purpose of illustration only, and are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the invention in any manner. All publications mentioned herein are incorporated by reference in their entirety. Demonstration of the activity of the compounds of the present invention may be accomplished through in vitro and in vivo assays that are well known in the art. For example, to demonstrate the efficacy of a pharmaceutical agent to inhibit glucose transporter GLUT1 and/or GLUT2 the following assays may be used. Indirect measurement of GLUT1 and GLUT2 activity by quantification of intracellular ATP levels It is well known that a combination of small-molecule inhibitors of mitochondrial electron transport chain and glucose catabolism synergistically suppress ATP production and impair cellular viability (Ulanovskaya et al., 2008, 2011; Liu, et al. 2001). We therefore used DLD1 or CHO-K1 cells in combination with an oxidative phosphorylation inhibitor to identify GLUT1 and GLUT2 inhibitors. Cell lines were maintained in DMEM medium supplemented with 10% FCS and 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin solution and 2% Glutamax. The cells were treated with trypsin and seeded into 384 plates at a density of 4000 cells/well. The cells were then cultured overnight in glucose free media containing 1% FCS to reduce intracellular ATP levels. After 24h the cells were incubated at 37°C containing the respective appropriate concentrations of glucose (0.1 mM, for determining GLUT1 activity) or fructose (10 mM, for determining GLUT2 activity) with or without example compounds and 1µM Rotenone for 15 min. The CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay from Promega was then used to measure ATP levels. Compounds able to reduce the ATP levels within 15 min of glucose/fructose application were considered to be glucose/fructose uptake inhibitors, respectively.

Biological Assay: Glucose uptake assay
Cells (e.g. H460 or CHO-K1) were cultured under standard conditions. 10000 cells per well were seeded in clear 96 well tissue culture isoplate plates and cultured overnight (PerkinElmer, 1450-516) under standard conditions. Culture medium was removed and cells were washed two times with 100 µL KRP buffer and then incubated for 45 minutes at 37°C (KRP buffer: 10 mM sodium hydrogen phosphate, 130 mM sodium chloride, 5 mM potassium chloride, 1.3 mM magnesium sulfate, 1.3 mM calcium chloride (pH 7.5), 50 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 4.7 mM potassium chloride, 1.25 mM magnesium sulfate, 1.25 mM calcium chloride) each. KRP wash buffer was removed and compound 126 (diluted in KRP buffer) was added and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. 200 nM radioligand (radioligand 2[1,2] 3H-Deoxy D-Glucose in KRP buffer) were added and incubated for 5 minutes at room temperature. The supernatant was removed and cells were washed with 100 µL ice-cold KRP for two times each. 25 µL of lysis buffer (1 % Triton-X, 0,5N sodium hydroxide) were added and incubated at room temperature for 5 minutes. 75 µL scintillation solution (Microscint-20, PerkinElmer) were added and the plates were shaken for 1 minute. The plates were incubated for 3h at room temperature and the counts were determined by using a Wallace MicroBeta counter (60 seconds per well).
Biological assay: Proliferation Assay
Cultivated tumor cells (MCF7, hormone dependent human mammary carcinoma cells, ATCC HTB22; NCI-H460, human non-small cell lung carcinoma cells, ATCC HTB-177; DU 145, hormone-independent human prostate carcinoma cells, ATCC HTB-81; HeLa-MaTu, human cervical carcinoma cells, EPO-GmbH, Berlin; HeLa- MaTu-ADR, multidrug-resistant human cervical carcinoma cells, EPO-GmbH, Berlin; HeLa human cervical tumor cells, ATCC CCL-2; B16F10 mouse melanoma cells, ATCC CRL-6475) were plated at a density of 5000 cells/well (MCF7, DU145, HeLa-MaTu-ADR), 3000 cells/well (NCI-H460, HeLa-MaTu, HeLa), or 1000 cells/well (B16F10) in a 96-well multititer plate in 200 μL of their respective growth medium supplemented 10% fetal calf serum. After 24 hours, the cells of one plate (zero-point plate) were stained with crystal violet (see below), while the medium of the other plates was replaced by fresh culture medium (200 μL), to which the test substances were added in various concentrations (0 μM, as well as in the range of 0.01-30 μM; the final concentration of the solvent dimethyl sulfoxide was 0.5%). The cells were incubated for 4 days in the presence of test substances. Cell proliferation was determined by staining the cells with crystal violet: the cells were fixed by adding 20 μL/measuring point of an 11% glutaric aldehyde solution for 15 minutes at room temperature. After three washing cycles of the fixed cells with water, the plates were dried at room temperature. The cells were stained by adding 100 μL/measuring point of a 0.1% crystal violet solution (pH 3.0). After three washing cycles of the stained cells with water, the plates were dried at room temperature. The dye was dissolved by adding 100 μL/measuring point of a 10% acetic acid solution. The extinction was determined by photometry at a wavelength of 595 nm. The change of cell number, in percent, was calculated by normalization of the measured values to the extinction values of the zero-point plate (=0%) and the extinction of the untreated (0 μm) cells (=100%). The IC50 values were determined by means of a 4 parameter fit.
Determination of metabolic stability in vitro
(including calculation of hepatic in vivo blood clearance (CL) and of maximal oral bioavailability (Fmax)) The metabolic stability of test compounds in vitro was determined by incubating them at 1 µM with a suspension liver microsomes in 100 mM phosphate buffer, pH7.4 (NaH2PO4 x H2O + Na2HPO4 x 2H2O) at a protein concentration of 0.5 mg/mL and at 37° C. The reaction was activated by adding a co-factor mix containing 1.2 mg NADP, 3 IU glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 14.6 mg glucose-6-phosphate and 4.9 mg MgCl2 in phosphate buffer, pH 7.4. Organic solvent in the incubations was limited to <0.2 % dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and <1% methanol. During incubation, the microsomal suspensions were continuously shaken and aliquots were taken at 2, 8, 16, 30, 45 and 60 min, to which equal volumes of cold methanol were immediately added. Samples were frozen at -20° C over night, subsequently centrifuged for 15 minutes at 3000 rpm and the supernatant was analyzed with an Agilent 1200 HPLC-system with LCMS/MS detection. The half-life of a test compound was determined from the concentration-time plot. From the half-life the intrinsic clearances were calculated. Together with the additional parameters liver blood flow, specific liver weight and microsomal protein content the hepatic in vivo blood clearance (CL) and the maximal oral bioavailability (Fmax) were calculated for the different species. The following parameter values were used: Liver blood flow– 1.3 L/h/kg (human), 2.1 L/h/kg (dog), 4.2 L/h/kg (rat); specific liver weight– 21 g/kg (human), 39 g/kg (dog), 32 g/kg (rat); microsomal protein content– 40 mg/g. With the described assay only phase-I metabolism of microsomes is reflected, e.g. typically oxidoreductive reactions by cytochrome P450 enzymes and flavin mono-oxygenases (FMO) and hydrolytic reactions by esterases (esters and amides).
