Definitions
- Tumor suppressor p53 is a well-established drug target whose activation has been shown to induce tumor regression in several models.
- p53 activity is inhibited mainly by MDM2 (Murine Double Minute 2) and MDM4, RING domain-containing proteins.
- MDM4 also known as MDMX
- MDM2 homologue which is expressed at levels higher than MDM2 due to its increased expression and protein stability in most cancer types.
- the N-terminus of both MDM2 and MDM4 binds to p53 transactivation domain and inhibits p53-dependent transcriptional transactivation of downstream genes, while the C-terminal RING domain of MDM2 can bind to E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzymes for p53 ubiquitination and to the RING domain of MDM4 to form heterodimers.
- Development of small molecule inhibitors of MDM2-p53 interaction has been a research focus for decades since the discovery of the first-in-class small molecule Nutlin3a and several Nultlin3-like MDM2 inhibitors are in clinical trials.
- MDM2 and MDM4 are cancer drug targets validated in multiple models for p53-based cancer therapies.
- the RING domains of MDM2 and non-p53-binder MDM2 splice isoforms form RING domain heterodimer polyubiquitin E3 ligases with MDM4, which regulate p53 stability in vivo and promote tumorigenesis independent of p53.
- MDM2 RING domain in p53 regulation and cancer development, small molecule inhibitors targeting the E3 ligase activity of MDM2-MDM4 are poorly explored.
- compositions and methods for inhibiting the growth of cells and/or inducing apoptosis and/or ferroptosis are provided.
- the compositions and methods inhibit growth and/or induce apoptosis of cancer cells and/or ferroptosis.
- An aspect of the present disclosure provides a prodrug of a Betti-base compound.
- masking the phenol’s alcohol functional group may contribute to the Betti -base’s antiproliferative activity. Without intending to be bound by any particular theory, the increased antiproliferative activity is thought to be due to enhanced cell penetration.
- the phenol moiety of Betti-base compounds is thought to be a structural weakness with respect to bioavailability, contributing to low in vivo half-life and problematic formulation and/or acute toxicity, potentially related to compound aggregation and ambient metal chelation.
- An advantage of the present disclosure is the slower and more selective release of a Betti-base compound.
- prodrugs of the present disclosure mask the phenol and allow for its slower and more selective release, for example, in cancer cells.
- the composition of the present disclosure comprises prodrugs containing moi eties that can be converted to phenols in vivo.
- the present disclosure comprises prodrugs containing moieties that can be converted to phenols selectively in cells, such as, for example, cancer cells.
- the prodrug of the present disclosure could be applied to any drug candidate where the active form is a Betti-type base.

It is also understood (as presented above) that there are a number of values disclosed herein, and that each value is also herein disclosed as “about” that particular value in addition to the value itself. For example, if the value “10” is disclosed, then “about 10” is also disclosed.
- Ranges can be expressed herein as from “about” one particular value, and/or to “about” another particular value. Similarly, when values are expressed as approximations, by use of the antecedent “about, it will be understood that the particular value forms a further disclosure. For example, if the value “about 10” is disclosed, then “10” is also disclosed.

- Described herein is the synthesis and characterization of quinolinol derivatives for the identification of analogs capable of targeting the MDM2-MDM4 heterodimer E3 ligase and inducing apoptosis in cells.
- the structure-activity-relationship (SAR) study identified structural moieties critical for the inhibitory effects toward MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase, targeted degradation of MDM4 and FTH1 in cells and anti-proliferation activity. Lead optimization led to the development of compound MMRi71 with improved activity.
- MMRi71 effectively kills p53-null leukemia cells, an activity conventional MDM2-p53 disrupting inhibitors lack.
- This disclosure provides a protype structure for developing MDM4/FTH1 dual targeting inhibitors as potential cancer therapeutics.
- NALM6 and shP53NALM6 leukemic cell lines were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 50 U/ml penicillin and 50 pg/ml streptomycin.
- shP53NALM6 cell line was established using pLKO.l-p53 (purchased from Sigma) (Plasmid #19119) followed by puromycin selection at 1 pg/ml for 2 days then clonal expansion in puromycin-free medium.
- MANCA, MANCA-mlp-puro and MANCA-mlp- MDM2 were gifts from Prof.
- Jill Bargonetti (Hunter College, CUNY, NY, USA) and were generated as described previously and maintained in 10% FBS-Pen/Strep- RPMI-1640 medium. Small-molecule compounds were synthesized, purified and characterized in house and were dissolved in DMSO as 10 mM stocks for cell proliferation assays.
- Apoptotic response to compounds was measured by western blotting using specific antibodies from Cell Signaling Technology for activated caspase 3 (Cleaved Caspase-3 (Aspl75) (5A1E) Rabbit mAb, #9664) and PARP (PARP Antibody #9542).
- MMRi67 derivatives were associated with their effects on dual degradation of MDM4 and FTH1 compared to MMRi67.
- the SAR results from MMRi67 derivatives identified the hydroxyl and the chloro in the quinoline ring and the carboxylic acid to be the critical structural elements that contribute to MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase inhibitory effects of MMRi67 in vitro.
- the ethyl ester substitution of the carboxylic acid moiety in MMRi67 generated potent analogs that exhibited strong MDM2/MDM4 and FTH1 degradation in cells.
- MMRi71 represents a new class of dual inhibitor targeting degradation of MDM2/MDM4 and FTH1 for p53-independent apoptosis in leukemia cells.
- MMRi6 are quinolinols identified in an enzyme-based HTS for inhibition toward the MDM2-MDM4 RING-domain mediated E3 ligase reaction.
- MMRi62 binds to preformed MDM2-MDM4 RING heterodimers for preferential MDM4 ubiquitination and acts as a MDM4-degrader in cells with potent apoptosis inducing activity; while MMRi67 was the most potent MDM2- MDM4 E3 ligase inhibitor but lacked MDM4 degradation and pro-apoptotic activity in cells.
- MMRi67 This analog showed weaker cell growth inhibitory effect in NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cells than MMRi62 but was more effective than MMRi67 (Tables 1, 2). However, 62-1 lost p53- independent antiproliferative activity of MMRi62. To further test the importance of quinolinol chlorine, an MMRi67 analog that lacked this functionality, 67-1 was synthesized. This compound was found to have similar weak leukemic cell growth inhibition as MMRi67. Based the structural similarity of the compounds to MMRi62, the compounds are expected to inhibit cancer cell growth to a much larger extent than non-transformed cell growth. MMRi62 is 125 times more cytotoxic to NALM6 leukemia cells than it is to normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
- Methylated phenol 62-3 was 70-fold and 172-fold less active than MMRi62 in NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cells, respectively.
- Methylated amine 62-4, cyclic aminal 62-5 and an esterase-labile ester analog, 62-6 also showed weaker antileukemic cell growth activity compared to the parent MMRi62.
- the amide analog 62-7 lacking the amine proton showed better antiproliferative activity. The amide bond is not expected to be very metabolically labile, thus the intact 62-7 is expected to be responsible for antiproliferative activity.
- MMRi71 is considered a dual prodrug of 67-8, as its aromatic ethyl ester is also succeptable to cellular esterases.
- MMRi71 with IC 50 of 0.23 pM in NALM6 cells and 0.29 pM in shP53NALM6 cells showed improved p53-independent antiproliferative activity in leukemia cells and was selected as a potential candidate for further investigation.
- MMRi67 is a small-molecule with demonstrated inhibitory activity against MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase. Yet, MMRi67 does not promote MDM4 degradation, nor does it induce apoptosis in leukemic cells as MMRi62. . A series of MMRi67 derivatives were synthezized to identify derivatives with improved pro-apoptotic activity ( Figure 1).
- MMRi67 is a bona fide inhibitor ofMDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase
- MMRi67 predicts metal chelation potential. Because Zn is required for maintaining the RING domain structure, it is possible that MMRi67 chelates away Zn and collapse the RING structure leading to dissociation of RING-RING interaction between MDM2-MDM4 and loss of the E3 ligase activity. An excessive amount of Zn has the potential to neutralize the chelating activity of MMRi67 and cancel its inhibition of MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase activity. An E3 ligase assay was performed in the presence of Zn and these results indicated the presence of Zn did not affect the effect of MMRi67 to inhibit MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase activity.
- MMRi62 This covalent binding potential of MMRi62 is similar to that of a macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) inhibitor which shares structural similarities with MMRi62. However, the covalent binding is not involved in the inhibitory mechanism of MMRi67 toward MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase in vitro. Taken together, the results suggest that MMRi67 bears specific inhibitory activity toward MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase.
- MIF macrophage migration inhibitory factor
- MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase [0155] To identify the pharmacophore of MMRi67 involved in inhibition of MDM2- MDM4 E3 ligase, new derivatives were evaluated in MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase assays. Analogs 67-1 with hydrogen substituted chloro group and 67-6 with hydrogen substituted for the hydroxyl group in the quinoline ring both lost the strong E3 ligase inhibitory activity of MMRi67. However, 67-1 showed slightly weak inhibition at 10 pM concentration leading to a conclusion that the hydroxyl and chloro groups in MMRi67 are key structural groups for strong MDM2/MDM4 E3 ligase inhibition ( Figure 3 A).
- MMRi71 with pyrimidine substitution along with ethyl ester substitution at carboxylic acid and hydroxyl groups of MMRi67 lost activity to inhibit MDM4 ubiquitination whereas retained inhibitory effect on MDM2B ubiquitination in a dose-dependent manner ( Figure 3C).
- the hydroxyl, chloro, carboxylic acid and pyridine arms of MMRi67 are all desirable structural components that contribute to strong MDM4-MDM2B E3 ligase inhibition.
- MMRi67 analog, MMRi71 with ethyl ester substitutions at hydroxyl and carboxylic acid group and pyrimidine ring showed strong anti-leukemic activity in cell proliferation inhibitory assay along with dose-dependent inhibition of MDM2B E3 ligase activity.
- Structural changes in MMRi71 are expected to increase water solubility and decrease molecular self-aggregation (via hydrogen-bonding or through metals involving the phenol) while maintaining the cell permeability potential of the candidate and its optimal effect on cellular targets.
- MMRi71 has the same potency in inhibiting growth of NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cells with ICsos of 0.2 pM ( Figure 5A), indicating a p53-independent cytotoxicity.
- phenol ester MMRi71 is substantially more cytotoxic than phenol ester 62-6 even though their parent phenols 67-9 and MMRi62 have similar cell growth ICso’s.
- MMRi71 treated NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cells were used in western blot analysis for changes in MDM4 and FTH1 proteins.
- MMRi71 treatment induced effective downregulation of MDM4 and FTH1 in both NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cells, and induced apoptosis shown by PARP cleavage indicating a p53-independent mechanism ( Figure 5B).
- Figure 5B To test whether MMRi71 -induced apoptosis was not a result of colloidal aggregation, cellular experiments in the presence of Triton X-10 were performed.
- MDM4 MDM2-high MANCA lymphoma cells in which MDM2 was either stably knocked down by lentivirus-mediated microRNA (miRNA) or left untouched with control miRNA.
- the elevated MDM4 expression in MDM2- knockdown cells is consistent with the report that MDM2 promotes ubiquitination and degradation of MDM4.
- MMRi71 induces MDM2-dependent proteasomal degradation of MDM4 and lysosome-dependent degradation of FTH1, the same mechanisms of action used by MMRi62, in addition to its potential inhibitory activity toward MDM2- MDM4 E3 ligase activity.
- the improved activity of MMRi71 over MMRi67 may be due to the increased covalent binding capability or improved permeability or both, which requires further confirmation using proper assays.
- the neutral ester in MMRi71 is expected to imbue better plasma membrane permeability compared to the charged carboxylic acid/carb oxy late in MMRi67.
- MMRi62 which has structural similarities to MMRi71, did show some covalent binding effect to MDM2 ( Figure 2D). Based on studies with quinolinol analog MIF inhibitor, covalent binders in this molecular class can be specific inhibitors.
- MMRi71 may be a covalent inhibitor targeting cellular MDM2-MDM4 for degradation.
- MMRi71 induced apoptosis at >5 pM at 24 h in NALM6 cells ( Figure 5C) and 67-7 that did not generate ROS is an inactive compound, these results conclude that ROS generation is required for the antitumor activity of MMRi71.
- ROS- induced DNA damage itself is not the major mechanism contributing to cell killing by MMRi62-like compounds, since they have high cancer selective toxicity.
- MMRi62 inhibits leukemic NALM6 (B-cell precursor leukemia) cell growth at 125-fold potency compared to its inhibition of normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).
- PBMCs peripheral blood mononuclear cells
- MMRi62 This 125-fold difference in MMRi62 sensitivity is not likely the result of DNA damage since DNA damage by radiation kills normal human lymphocytes and B cell lymphoma cells at comparable capability with Do of 1.95Gy for lymphocytes and of 1.38Gy for Burkitt's lymphoma cell, where Do is a radiation dose required to reduce the fraction of surviving cells to 37% of its previous value. Accordingly, like MMRi62, the mechanisms of action for MMRi71 may, in various embodiments, involve multiple drug targets that predispose cancer cells to its selective toxicity.
- MMRi62 we did find MMRi62 to be stable in C2D5OD at 100 °C for 24 h including with added CD3CO2D and deuterated pyridine, respectively ( 1 H NMR analysis, separate experiments), so if MMRi62 and related analogs are covalent inhibitors, it is likely they selectively bind their targets and become activated to the quinone methide within the target.

STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH
[0002] This invention was made with government support under grant nos. CA208352 and GM078383 awarded by the National Institutes of Health. The government has certain rights in the invention.
BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE
[0003] Tumor suppressor p53 (TP53) is a well-established drug target whose activation has been shown to induce tumor regression in several models. In normal and cancer cells, p53 activity is inhibited mainly by MDM2 (Murine Double Minute 2) and MDM4, RING domain-containing proteins. MDM4 (also known as MDMX) is the only MDM2 homologue which is expressed at levels higher than MDM2 due to its increased expression and protein stability in most cancer types. The N-terminus of both MDM2 and MDM4 binds to p53 transactivation domain and inhibits p53-dependent transcriptional transactivation of downstream genes, while the C-terminal RING domain of MDM2 can bind to E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzymes for p53 ubiquitination and to the RING domain of MDM4 to form heterodimers. Development of small molecule inhibitors of MDM2-p53 interaction has been a research focus for decades since the discovery of the first-in-class small molecule Nutlin3a and several Nultlin3-like MDM2 inhibitors are in clinical trials.
These inhibitors are intended to bind to the p53-binding pocket of MDM2 that prevent MDM2 from binding to p53 thus releasing p53 from MDM2-mediated inhibition and elicit tumor suppression in a p53-dependent manner. Accordingly, p53 mutation confers intrinsic and acquired resistance to MDM2-p53 disruptor inhibitors. Further, this type of MDM2 inhibitors are challenged with resistance conferred by MDM4 overexpression in cancer cells, since MDM4 can bind and inhibit p53 transactivation domain in the absence of MDM2. [0004] MDM2 and MDM4 are cancer drug targets validated in multiple models for p53-based cancer therapies. The RING domains of MDM2 and non-p53-binder MDM2 splice isoforms form RING domain heterodimer polyubiquitin E3 ligases with MDM4, which
regulate p53 stability in vivo and promote tumorigenesis independent of p53. Despite the importance of the MDM2 RING domain in p53 regulation and cancer development, small molecule inhibitors targeting the E3 ligase activity of MDM2-MDM4 are poorly explored.
SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE
[0005] The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for inhibiting the growth of cells and/or inducing apoptosis and/or ferroptosis. For example, the compositions and methods inhibit growth and/or induce apoptosis of cancer cells and/or ferroptosis.
[0006] An aspect of the present disclosure provides a prodrug of a Betti-base compound. In one active series of Betti -base compounds, masking the phenol’s alcohol functional group may contribute to the Betti -base’s antiproliferative activity. Without intending to be bound by any particular theory, the increased antiproliferative activity is thought to be due to enhanced cell penetration.
[0007] Without intending to be bound by any particular theory, the phenol moiety of Betti-base compounds is thought to be a structural weakness with respect to bioavailability, contributing to low in vivo half-life and problematic formulation and/or acute toxicity, potentially related to compound aggregation and ambient metal chelation.
[0008] An advantage of the present disclosure is the slower and more selective release of a Betti-base compound. In an embodiment, prodrugs of the present disclosure mask the phenol and allow for its slower and more selective release, for example, in cancer cells.
[0009] In various embodiments, the composition of the present disclosure comprises prodrugs containing moi eties that can be converted to phenols in vivo. In embodiments, the present disclosure comprises prodrugs containing moieties that can be converted to phenols selectively in cells, such as, for example, cancer cells.
[0010] In various embodiments, the prodrug of the present disclosure could be applied to any drug candidate where the active form is a Betti-type base.

The same procedure as in A except for the presence of indicated concentrations of Zn. Only MDM2B data were shown. (D) Preincubation of MDM2B proteins with MMRi67 does not abolish MDM2B E3 ligase activity. Same procedure as in A except MDM2B was preincubated with either 10 pM MMRi62 or MMRi67 for the indicated min before 10-times dilution and used for ubiquitination reaction and the preincubation did not affect ubiquitination of MDM2B or MDM4 by MDM2B-MDM4 E3 complex.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DISCLOSURE
[0062] Although claimed subject matter will be described in terms of certain embodiments, other embodiments, including embodiments that do not provide all of the benefits and features set forth herein, are also within the scope of this disclosure. Various structural, logical, and process step changes may be made without departing from the scope of the disclosure.
[0063] As used herein, unless otherwise indicated, “about”, “substantially”, or “the like”, when used in connection with a measurable variable (such as, for example, a parameter, an amount, a temporal duration, or the like) or a list of alternatives, is meant to encompass variations of and from the specified value including, but not limited to, those within experimental error (which can be determined by, e.g., a given data set, an art accepted standard, etc. and/or with, e.g., a given confidence interval (e.g. 90%, 95%, or more
confidence interval from the mean), such as, for example, variations of +/- 10% or less, +/-5% or less, +/-1% or less, and +/-0.1% or less of and from the specified value), insofar such variations in a variable and/or variations in the alternatives are appropriate to perform in the instant disclosure. As used herein, the term “about” may mean that the amount or value in question is the exact value or a value that provides equivalent results or effects as recited in the claims or taught herein. That is, it is understood that amounts, sizes, compositions, parameters, and other quantities and characteristics are not and need not be exact, but may be approximate and/or larger or smaller, as desired, reflecting tolerances, conversion factors, rounding off, measurement error, or the like, or other factors known to those of skill in the art such that equivalent results or effects are obtained. In general, an amount, size, composition, parameter, or other quantity or characteristic, or alternative is “about” or “the like,” whether or not expressly stated to be such. It is understood that where “about,” is used before a quantitative value, the parameter also includes the specific quantitative value itself, unless specifically stated otherwise.
[0064] Ranges of values are disclosed herein. The ranges set out a lower limit value and an upper limit value. Unless otherwise stated, the ranges include the lower limit value, the upper limit value, and all values between the lower limit value and the upper limit value, including, but not limited to, all values to the magnitude of the smallest value (either the lower limit value or the upper limit value) of a range. It is to be understood that such a range format is used for convenience and brevity, and thus, should be interpreted in a flexible manner to include not only the numerical values explicitly recited as the limits of the range, but also to include all the individual numerical values or sub-ranges encompassed within that range as if each numerical value and sub-range is explicitly recited. To illustrate, a numerical range of “0.1% to 5%” should be interpreted to include not only the explicitly recited values of 0.1% to 5%, but also, unless otherwise stated, include individual values (e.g., 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4%) and the sub-ranges (e.g., 0.5% to 1.1%; 0.5% to 2.4%; 0.5% to 3.2%, and 0.5% to 4.4%, and other possible sub-ranges) within the indicated range. It is also understood (as presented above) that there are a number of values disclosed herein, and that each value is also herein disclosed as “about” that particular value in addition to the value itself. For example, if the value “10” is disclosed, then “about 10” is also disclosed. Ranges can be expressed herein as from “about” one particular value, and/or to “about” another particular value. Similarly, when values are expressed as approximations, by use of the antecedent “about, it will be understood that the particular value forms a further disclosure. For example, if the value “about 10” is disclosed, then “10” is also disclosed.
[0065] As used herein, unless otherwise stated, the term “group” refers to a chemical entity that is monovalent (i.e., has one terminus that can be covalently bonded to other chemical species), divalent, or polyvalent (i.e., has two or more termini that can be covalently bonded to other chemical species).

[0076] The present disclosure provides a family of small organic molecules, termed “Betti bases,” which comprise phenolic (or hydroxyaryl) benzylic amine derivatives, have demonstrated broad anti-proliferative activity against cancer cells, including leukemia, pancreatic cancer, and melanomas. As used throughout, “Betti base” refers to 2-
(aminomethyl)phenol derivatives. The compounds are thought to impact one or more cellular proteins that play significant roles in cancer progression, including MDM2, MDMX, p53, E3 ligase and FTH1. Structure-activity-relationship studies of these compounds indicate the phenol moiety contributes to the anti-proliferative activity.

EXAMPLE 1
[0127] Described herein is the synthesis and characterization of quinolinol derivatives for the identification of analogs capable of targeting the MDM2-MDM4 heterodimer E3 ligase and inducing apoptosis in cells. The structure-activity-relationship (SAR) study identified structural moieties critical for the inhibitory effects toward MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase, targeted degradation of MDM4 and FTH1 in cells and anti-proliferation activity. Lead optimization led to the development of compound MMRi71 with improved activity. In addition to accumulating p53 proteins in wt-p53 bearing cancer cells as expected of any MDM2 inhibitors, MMRi71 effectively kills p53-null leukemia cells, an activity conventional MDM2-p53 disrupting inhibitors lack. This disclosure provides a protype structure for developing MDM4/FTH1 dual targeting inhibitors as potential cancer therapeutics.
[0128] Described is the structural activity relationship studies (SAR) leading to the identification of MMRi71 as an inhibitor of the E3 ligase activity of MDM2-MDM4, inducer of MDM4 and FTH1 dual protein degradation and p53-independent apoptosis in leukemia cells. The anti-cancer potency of MMRi67, the first lead in the development of structurally optimized prodrug MMRi71, was not readily apparent until its carboxylic acid was introduced as an ethyl ester. Conversely, inhibition of E3 ligase activity is only observed when MMRi67 is in its carboxylic acid form.

Briefly, reactions were carried out at 30 °C for Ih in a volume of 20 pl reaction in the presence of different concentrations of compounds or vehicle solvent DMSO, followed by WB of p53 with DO-1, MDM2 with rabbit anti- MDM2 (MDM2 (DI V2Z) Rabbit mAb #86934, Cell Signaling Technology), or MDM4 with a rabbit anti-MDM4 antibody (Proteintech, Cat no: 17914-1-AP). Apoptotic response to compounds was measured by western blotting using specific antibodies from Cell Signaling Technology for activated caspase 3 (Cleaved Caspase-3 (Aspl75) (5A1E) Rabbit mAb, #9664) and PARP (PARP Antibody #9542).
[0138] ICso measurement and analysis
[0139] The procedure was described previously. Briefly cells at 10,000/well were plated in 96-well plates at lOOpl/well and compounds of different concentrations were added to each well at lOOpl/well. After 70h treatment, 40pl of 6x resazurin stock solution was added to each well followed by 2h development of fluorescent metabolite by viable cells before reading OD600 in BioTek Synergy 2 Microplate Reader. The IC50 values were obtained by Chou-Median-Effect Equation using CompuSyn software and dose-effect curves were obtained by GraphPad using affected fractions of compound-treated wells normalized against no-drug control wells with non-liner regression model.
[0140] In summary, the anti-proliferative activity of these MMRi67 derivatives were associated with their effects on dual degradation of MDM4 and FTH1 compared to MMRi67. The SAR results from MMRi67 derivatives identified the hydroxyl and the chloro in the
quinoline ring and the carboxylic acid to be the critical structural elements that contribute to MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase inhibitory effects of MMRi67 in vitro. The ethyl ester substitution of the carboxylic acid moiety in MMRi67 generated potent analogs that exhibited strong MDM2/MDM4 and FTH1 degradation in cells. MMRi71 represents a new class of dual inhibitor targeting degradation of MDM2/MDM4 and FTH1 for p53-independent apoptosis in leukemia cells.
EXAMPLE 2
[0141] Structural requirement for the anti-proliferative activity ofMMRi62 and
MMRi67 derivatives
[0142] Primary hits MMRi6 are quinolinols identified in an enzyme-based HTS for inhibition toward the MDM2-MDM4 RING-domain mediated E3 ligase reaction. With available MMRi6 analogs from Hit2Lead library, secondary screens were performed and identified two analogs with unique properties: MMRi62 binds to preformed MDM2-MDM4 RING heterodimers for preferential MDM4 ubiquitination and acts as a MDM4-degrader in cells with potent apoptosis inducing activity; while MMRi67 was the most potent MDM2- MDM4 E3 ligase inhibitor but lacked MDM4 degradation and pro-apoptotic activity in cells. The capability of p53-independent apoptosis induction by MMRi62 promises potential application of the quinolinol derivatives as novel cancer therapies for killing p53-mutant drug-resistant cancer cells. This potential motivated SAR studies on MMRi62 and MMRi67 for lead optimization (Figure 1).
[0143] Anti-proliferation assays were performed for the compounds shown in Figure 1 using wtp53-bearing NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cells (Tables 1, 2) to determine p53- independent cell proliferation inhibitory effect. The chemical structures of MMRi62 and MMRi67 differ in a few positions. MMRi62 has two chlorines on the phenyl ring and none on the quinolinol ring while MMRi67 has a chlorine on the quinolinol ring and a carboxylic acid on the phenyl ring (Figure 1). To test the effect of the quinolinol chloro- substituent, a hydro-to-chloro-modified analog of MMRi62, namely, 62-1 was synthesized. This analog showed weaker cell growth inhibitory effect in NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cells than MMRi62 but was more effective than MMRi67 (Tables 1, 2). However, 62-1 lost p53- independent antiproliferative activity of MMRi62. To further test the importance of quinolinol chlorine, an MMRi67 analog that lacked this functionality, 67-1 was synthesized. This compound was found to have similar weak leukemic cell growth inhibition as MMRi67. Based the structural similarity of the compounds to MMRi62, the compounds are expected to
inhibit cancer cell growth to a much larger extent than non-transformed cell growth. MMRi62 is 125 times more cytotoxic to NALM6 leukemia cells than it is to normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
[0144] The next step in design and synthesis involved modification of the carboxylic acid on the phenyl ring of MMRi67. Analog 67-2 replaces the carboxylic acid in MMRi67 with a similar electron-withdrawing nitro group and its corresponding 3-nitro analog, 67-3. Both 67-2 and 67-3 showed over 20 times better IC50 against NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cell growth than MMRi67. If the carboxylic acid in MMRi67 existed substantially in its charged carboxylate form, its cell permeability could be low, thereby reducing its ability to inhibit cancer cell growth. To test this, the ethyl ester analog 67-4 was synthesized and screened against leukemia cell proliferation. This analog proved a much more potent cell growth inhibitor with over 50-fold lower IC50 than MMRi67 of 0.22 pM and 0.21 pM in NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cells, respectively. Analog 67-5, an ethyl ester derivative that lacks the chloro functionality on the quinolinol, also showed strong antiproliferative activity.
Therefore, this data suggests that the ethyl ester substitution of acidic group solely contributes to improved cellular activity in MMRi67.

[0145] The role of the phenol moiety in both MMRi62 and MMRi67 was determined. For this purpose, analogs lacking phenol, 62-2, 67-6 and 67-7 were synthesized. Without the hydroxyl group, all three analogs showed poor activity in cell proliferation assays compared to their lead compounds. Analog 67-7 completely lost its antiproliferative activity in leukemia cells with ICso >100 pM. Analog 67-6, with the ethyl ester group substitution but lacking the phenol, showed 80-150-fold weaker cell proliferation inhibitory activity compared to 67-5. Comparing 67-6 and 67-7, it appears that while the lack of phenol diminishes their cell inhibitory effect, the ethyl ester group in 67-7 may somewhat restore the compound’s antiproliferation effect in cells. Overall, these results suggest that the phenol group in the quinoline ring can contribute to potent cellular activities of both the compound series.
[0146] The importance of the respective protons on the phenol and amine were additionally tested in the 62 series. Methylated phenol 62-3 was 70-fold and 172-fold less active than MMRi62 in NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cells, respectively. Methylated amine 62-4, cyclic aminal 62-5 and an esterase-labile ester analog, 62-6 also showed weaker antileukemic cell growth activity compared to the parent MMRi62. Interestingly, the amide analog 62-7 lacking the amine proton showed better antiproliferative activity. The amide bond is not expected to be very metabolically labile, thus the intact 62-7 is expected to be responsible for antiproliferative activity. This data may support some covalent reactivity with biochemical targets (the N-acetyl-2-aminopyridine could be a better leaving group than 2- aminopyridine, vide infra). An MMRi62 analog containing the phenol but lacking quinoline heterocycle 62-8 also showed increased ICsos against cell growth.
[0147] The water solubility of these MMRi compounds estimated by calculated logP indicated that they are slightly lipophilic (MMRi62 LogP = 5.1, analog 67-4, LogP = 4.8). It was hypothesized that their water solubility, which would aid in formulation, could be enhanced by the addition of heteroatoms to the 2-aminopyridine ring. Therefore, a pyrimidine domain was substituted in MMRi62 to generate 62-9 and in MMRi67 to generate analogs 67- 8 and 67-9. The predicted LogP of pyrimidine analog 62-9 is 4.4 and for pyrimidino analog
67-9 is 4.0. Analysis of these more water-soluble analogs in antiproliferation of leukemic cells indicated that their activities were only modestly diminished, suggesting that the pyrimidine modification was tolerated. Analog 62-10, with an additional nitrogen in the 2,3- di chlorobenzene ring, substantially lost antiproliferative ability, indicating that not all changes are tolerated on this aryl ring. In addition, it should be noted that 62-11 that lacks substitution on the benzene ring is also an order of magnitude less potent than MMRi62. [0148] Although the phenol contributes to the antiproliferative activity of the MMRi compounds, it was seen as a potential source of molecular aggregation, either via hydrogen bonding network or transient metal chelation. Thus, to mitigate these potential unwanted reactivities, an esterase-labile propionate moiety was introduced to the lead pyrimidinyl analog 67-9 to generate the prodrug MMRi71 (Scheme 1). MMRi71 is considered a dual prodrug of 67-8, as its aromatic ethyl ester is also succeptable to cellular esterases. MMRi71 with IC50 of 0.23 pM in NALM6 cells and 0.29 pM in shP53NALM6 cells showed improved p53-independent antiproliferative activity in leukemia cells and was selected as a potential candidate for further investigation.
Scheme 1. Synthesis of MMRi71. A representative synthesis is shown for MMRi71.
[0149] MMRi67 is a small-molecule with demonstrated inhibitory activity against MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase. Yet, MMRi67 does not promote MDM4 degradation, nor does it induce apoptosis in leukemic cells as MMRi62. . A series of MMRi67 derivatives were synthezized to identify derivatives with improved pro-apoptotic activity (Figure 1).
EXAMPLE 3
[0150] MMRi67 is a bona fide inhibitor ofMDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase
[0151] False positive hits in biochemical or cell-based screens with so-called PAINS (Pan Assay Interference compounds) are of concern and hinder lead optimization. MMRi62 and MMRi67 are unlikely PAINS because NEDD4-1 was used as a non-specific control E3 ligase in validation assays. This was further validated in this study by the selectivity of
MMRi67 for Mdm2B versus NEDD4-1 (Figure 2 A). Moreover, MMRi62 and MMRi67 have distinct effect on MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase activity, MDM4 degradation and apoptosis induction despite their subtle structural difference. Identification of a PAINS from a real hit requires more than simply running a filter screen. However, some chemical behaviors of PAINS can be tested including protein reactivity, colloidal aggregation, and metal chelation. To rule out colloidal aggregator activity, an E3 ligase assay was performed in the presence or absence of 0.01% non-ionic detergent Trixton-X-100, these results indicate that MMRi67- mediated inhibition of MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase was not affected in the presence of detergent (Figure 2B).
[0152] The structure of MMRi67 predicts metal chelation potential. Because Zn is required for maintaining the RING domain structure, it is possible that MMRi67 chelates away Zn and collapse the RING structure leading to dissociation of RING-RING interaction between MDM2-MDM4 and loss of the E3 ligase activity. An excessive amount of Zn has the potential to neutralize the chelating activity of MMRi67 and cancel its inhibition of MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase activity. An E3 ligase assay was performed in the presence of Zn and these results indicated the presence of Zn did not affect the effect of MMRi67 to inhibit MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase activity.
[0153] Preincubation of MDM4 proteins with either MMRi62 or MMRi67 for a period of 20 to 320 minutes at 10 pM did not affect the E3 ligase activity of the MDM2- MDM4 E3 complex (data not shown). However, preincubation of MDM2B proteins with MMRi62 but not MMRi67 inhibited the MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase activity (Figure 2D), suggesting that covalent binding contributes to some extent to MMRi62-mediated effect on MDM2B-MDM4 E3 ligase reaction (e.g. via alkylation of a quinone methide formed from 2- aminopyridine loss via solvolysis of MMRi62.). This covalent binding potential of MMRi62 is similar to that of a macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) inhibitor which shares structural similarities with MMRi62. However, the covalent binding is not involved in the inhibitory mechanism of MMRi67 toward MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase in vitro. Taken together, the results suggest that MMRi67 bears specific inhibitory activity toward MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase.
EXAMPLE 4
[0154] Structural requirement of MM R i 67 derivatives for inhibitory activity toward
MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase
[0155] To identify the pharmacophore of MMRi67 involved in inhibition of MDM2- MDM4 E3 ligase, new derivatives were evaluated in MDM2-MDM4 E3 ligase assays. Analogs 67-1 with hydrogen substituted chloro group and 67-6 with hydrogen substituted for the hydroxyl group in the quinoline ring both lost the strong E3 ligase inhibitory activity of MMRi67. However, 67-1 showed slightly weak inhibition at 10 pM concentration leading to a conclusion that the hydroxyl and chloro groups in MMRi67 are key structural groups for strong MDM2/MDM4 E3 ligase inhibition (Figure 3 A). To check whether the carboxylic acid in MMRi67 contributes to its E3 ligase activity for MDM2 and MDM4, 62-1 with dichloro substitution and 67-4 (Figure 1) with ethyl ester substitution were evaluated with E3 ligase assays. The results showed weak inhibition of MDM2 and MDM4 ubiquitination at concentrations of 10 pM for both 62-1 and 67-4 derivatives, indicating that the E3 ligase inhibitory action of MMRi67 was lost by carboxylic acid substitution (Figure 3B).
[0156] Following the MMRi67 quinoline ring hydroxyl and chloro substitution and the carboxylic acid moiety modification, pyridine was switched to pyrimidine in E3 ligase assay. Pyridine substitution to pyrimidine in MMRi67 to generate analog 67-8 lost MDM4 E3 ligase inhibitory effect however showed partial inhibition of MDM2-B E3 ligase at high concentrations. 67-9 with pyrimidine substituted pyridine and ethyl ester substituted acidic group lost both MDM4 and MDM2-B E3 ligase effects. Similarly, MMRi71 with pyrimidine substitution along with ethyl ester substitution at carboxylic acid and hydroxyl groups of MMRi67 lost activity to inhibit MDM4 ubiquitination whereas retained inhibitory effect on MDM2B ubiquitination in a dose-dependent manner (Figure 3C). Overall, the hydroxyl, chloro, carboxylic acid and pyridine arms of MMRi67 are all desirable structural components that contribute to strong MDM4-MDM2B E3 ligase inhibition.
EXAMPLE 5
[0157] Induced MDM4 and FTH1 degradation is associated with the pro-apoptotic activity ofMMRi67 derivatives
[0158] The p53-independent pro-apoptotic activity of quinolinol compound MMRi62 was associated with induced MDM4 and FTH1 degradation in cells. To determine whether the increased antiproliferative activity of potent MMRi67 analogs is also associated with p53- independent apoptosis and MDM2/MDM4 and FTH1 protein degradation, western blot analysis for activated Caspase 3 and caspase-mediated PARP cleavage was conducted.
Consistent with its improved anti-proliferation activity, analog 67-5 with hydrogen substituted chloro and ethyl ester substituted acidic group in MMRi67 induced
downregulation of MDM4/MDM2, caspase 3 activation and PARP cleavage in a concentration-dependent manner (Figures 4A, 4B). Moreover, the pro-apoptotic effect of 67- 5 was independent of p53 since the apoptotic response to 67-5 between NALM6 and shp53NALM6 cells showed no difference. Similar results were obtained with 67-4 (data not shown). These results demonstrate that improved cell killing ability of 67 derivatives use similar mechanism of action as MMRi62, i.e., MDM4 degradation is a necessary molecular event associated with apoptosis induction. Although 67-5 effectively induced downregulation of FTH1, as far as apoptosis of leukemia cells is concerned, it appeared that MDM2/MDM4 degradation, but not FTH1 degradation is associated with apoptosis induction, since MMRi67 also induced FTH1 degradation at concentrations >2.5 pM yet did not elicit any apoptotic response (Figure 4B). FTH1 degradation may play a role in predisposing cells to apoptosis since FTH1 is a ferroptosis target whose depletion increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) and induces ferroptosis in other cell types.
[0159] MMRi67 analog, MMRi71 with ethyl ester substitutions at hydroxyl and carboxylic acid group and pyrimidine ring showed strong anti-leukemic activity in cell proliferation inhibitory assay along with dose-dependent inhibition of MDM2B E3 ligase activity. Structural changes in MMRi71 are expected to increase water solubility and decrease molecular self-aggregation (via hydrogen-bonding or through metals involving the phenol) while maintaining the cell permeability potential of the candidate and its optimal effect on cellular targets. To test this, anti-proliferation assays showed that MMRi71 has the same potency in inhibiting growth of NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cells with ICsos of 0.2 pM (Figure 5A), indicating a p53-independent cytotoxicity. Interestingly, phenol ester MMRi71 is substantially more cytotoxic than phenol ester 62-6 even though their parent phenols 67-9 and MMRi62 have similar cell growth ICso’s. The greater aqueous solubility the pyrimidine lends to MMRi71 may contribute to a more rapid ester hydrolysis to its active form, phenol 67-9.
[0160] MMRi71 treated NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cells were used in western blot analysis for changes in MDM4 and FTH1 proteins. MMRi71 treatment induced effective downregulation of MDM4 and FTH1 in both NALM6 and shP53NALM6 cells, and induced apoptosis shown by PARP cleavage indicating a p53-independent mechanism (Figure 5B). To test whether MMRi71 -induced apoptosis was not a result of colloidal aggregation, cellular experiments in the presence of Triton X-10 were performed. Because the presence of 0.01% Trixton-X-100 appeared to induce apoptotic cell death in NALM6 cells and the tolerable
concentrations of Triton X-100 was between 0.001-0.0025% (data not shown), cellular experiments in the presence of 0.0025% Triton X-100 showed that MMRi71 induced similar extend of apoptotic response indicated by cleaved PARP in the presence of detergent (Figure 5C), suggesting that MMRi71 -induced apoptosis is not a result of colloidal aggregation. [0161] MMRi62 induced MDM4 degradation was MDM2-dependent and MMRi62- induced FTH1 degradation was dependent on lysosomal pathway. To understand whether MMRi71 -induced MDM4 uses the same mechanisms as MMRi62, a WB analysis of MDM4 degradation by MMRi71 was performed using a pair of MDM2-high MANCA lymphoma cells in which MDM2 was either stably knocked down by lentivirus-mediated microRNA (miRNA) or left untouched with control miRNA. Results indicated that MDM4 expression levels were elevated in MDM2-knockdown MANCA-mlp-MDM2 cells, and treatment with MMRi71 did not induce MDM4 degradation. The elevated MDM4 expression in MDM2- knockdown cells is consistent with the report that MDM2 promotes ubiquitination and degradation of MDM4. Abolishment of MDM4 degradation by MMRi71 in the absence of MDM2 in MANCA-mlp-MDM2 cells suggest that MMRi71 -induced MDM4 degradation is MDM2-dependent (Figure 5D). To determine whether MMRi71 -induced FTH1 degradation is lysosome dependent, a rescue experiment was performed with lysosome inhibitor Bafilomycin Al (BAF1). The results showed that BAF1 fully rescued FTH1 in NALM6 cells (Figure 5E). These results suggest that MMRi71 induces MDM2-dependent proteasomal degradation of MDM4 and lysosome-dependent degradation of FTH1, the same mechanisms of action used by MMRi62, in addition to its potential inhibitory activity toward MDM2- MDM4 E3 ligase activity. The improved activity of MMRi71 over MMRi67 may be due to the increased covalent binding capability or improved permeability or both, which requires further confirmation using proper assays. The neutral ester in MMRi71 is expected to imbue better plasma membrane permeability compared to the charged carboxylic acid/carb oxy late in MMRi67. Additionally, MMRi62, which has structural similarities to MMRi71, did show some covalent binding effect to MDM2 (Figure 2D). Based on studies with quinolinol analog MIF inhibitor, covalent binders in this molecular class can be specific inhibitors. MMRi71 may be a covalent inhibitor targeting cellular MDM2-MDM4 for degradation.
[0162] Quinolinol compounds were reported to cause DNA damage via chelating metal ions and generating ROS. To test whether MMRi71 causes DNA damage, MMRi71 and inactive compound 67-7 that lacks metal chelating capability were used to treat p53/Mdm2-double knockout (2KO) MEFs and human 293T cell lines followed by detecting y-H2AX which is an indicator of DNA damage. Use of 2KO MEFs and 293T cells will
exclude apoptosis-associated y-H2AX signal due to apoptotic DNA fragmentation, since these two cell types are resistant to apoptosis. Results showed that MMRi71 but not the inactive 67-7 increased y-H2AX slightly at 5 pM and significantly at 10 pM in both cell lines (Figure 5F and 5G). These results suggest that MMRi71 at concentrations of >5 pM has potential to induce DNA damage, possibly by MMRi71 -induced ROS. These results are consistent with our observation that MMRi62 induces ROS generation in pancreatic cells. ROS induced by MMRi62-like compounds likely involves both metal chelation and FTH1 degradation which releases ferrous iron, although metal chelation is not involved in its action on the E3 ligase activity (Figure 2C). Since MMRi71 induced apoptosis at >5 pM at 24 h in NALM6 cells (Figure 5C) and 67-7 that did not generate ROS is an inactive compound, these results conclude that ROS generation is required for the antitumor activity of MMRi71. However, without intending to be bound to any particular theory, it is considered that ROS- induced DNA damage itself is not the major mechanism contributing to cell killing by MMRi62-like compounds, since they have high cancer selective toxicity. MMRi62 inhibits leukemic NALM6 (B-cell precursor leukemia) cell growth at 125-fold potency compared to its inhibition of normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). This 125-fold difference in MMRi62 sensitivity is not likely the result of DNA damage since DNA damage by radiation kills normal human lymphocytes and B cell lymphoma cells at comparable capability with Do of 1.95Gy for lymphocytes and of 1.38Gy for Burkitt's lymphoma cell, where Do is a radiation dose required to reduce the fraction of surviving cells to 37% of its previous value. Accordingly, like MMRi62, the mechanisms of action for MMRi71 may, in various embodiments, involve multiple drug targets that predispose cancer cells to its selective toxicity.
EXAMPLE 6
[0163] Discussion of potential covalent inhibition mechanism.
[0164] We have presented data that indicates that MMRi62 and perhaps some 62- and 67-based analogs (including MMRi71), might function in part as covalent inhibitors. We envision covalent inhibition could occur, as previously proposed for related phenolic benzylic amines, via a quinone methide forming reaction followed by addition of a protein’s nucleophilic functionality (e.g. amine or thiol) to the resulting electrophile. Our further efforts to probe this mechanism are underway and will be reported in due course. Thus far, a covalent protein-MMRi62 covalent adduct has not been isolated or biochemically identified. We did find MMRi62 to be stable in C2D5OD at 100 °C for 24 h including with added
CD3CO2D and deuterated pyridine, respectively ( 1 H NMR analysis, separate experiments), so if MMRi62 and related analogs are covalent inhibitors, it is likely they selectively bind their targets and become activated to the quinone methide within the target.

EXAMPLE 7
[0211] The following example provides a description of uses of the compounds of the present disclosure.
[0213] The compounds promote ferroptosis, a cell death associated with reactive oxygen species caused by dysregulation of cellular iron. A marker of ferroptosis is degradation of the cellular iron storage protein, ferratin heavy chain 1 (FTH1). The parent phenolic compounds, e.g. SC-62-1, causes total loss of FTH1 at concentrations >2.5 pM. [0214] Phenolic ester pro-drug SC-62- 1C retained the ability to induce apoptotic cleavage of PARP at comparable capacity as SC-62-1 at 10 pM in MDM4-high A375 cells, which was accompanied by MDM4 degradation. With regard to FTH1 degradation, SC-62-1 has strong and acute effect: causing total loss of FTH1 at concentrations >2.5 pM, while the effect of SC-62-1C on FTH1 was attenuated and exhibited good linear dose-response. A375 cells treated with 10 pM SC-62-1C had a FTH1 level higher than cells treated with 2.5 pM SC-62-1C. Therefore, SC-62-1C is predicted to have less acute toxicity and better PK profile in term of MDM4-targeting in vivo.
[0215] In preliminary in vivo experiments, it was empirically observed that prodrug SC-62- IB administration is tolerated at the injection site of mice much better than the parent phenol, SC-62-1.
[0217] Formulation: It is easier to make in vivo formulations of the prodrugs (phenol acylated) compared to the parent active compounds due to solubility (e.g. in 10% N-methyl- 2-pyrrolidone and 10% castor oil in water) and probably lack of ambient metal chelation in the case of the prodrugs. [0218] In vivo (mice): SC-62-1B was found to be non-toxic to mice at 80 mg/kg
(injected 3 days/week over 2 weeks). MMRi71 was found to be non-toxic to mice at 36 mg/kg (injected 3 days/week over 2 weeks). SC-62-1 at 50 mg/kg was modestly effective at reducing tumor spread in mice and caused modest weight loss (9% higher than control) (injected 3 days/week over two weeks). [0219] Prodrugs with hydrolysable functionalities that mask the phenol moiety (e.g. esters, carbamates) are much more active than non-hydrolyzable phenol derivatives (ethers), indicating that hydrolysable phenolic ethers convert to the active phenol more easily in cells: [0220] For reference, the ICso NALM6 of phenol MMRi-62 is ca. 0.12 mM and the
IC50 NALM6 of phenol SC-62-1 is ca. 0.25 pM. [0221] The ICso NALM6 of phenolic methyl ether (non-hydrolyzable) 62-3 is ca. 12 pM.
[0222] The IC50 NALM6 of (hydrolysable) propionate ester 62-6 is ca. 1 pM.
[0223] The IC50 NALM6 of carbamate SC-62-8 (hydrolysable) is ca. 2.6 pM.
