Field of Invention
[0001] This invention relates to novel benzimidazole derivatives that are useful in the treatment of abnormal cell growth, such as cancer, in mammals. This invention also relates to a method of using such compounds in the treatment of abnormal cell growth in mammals, especially humans, and to pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds.
Background
[0002] Hedgehog (Hh) proteins are secreted morphogens that are involved in many biological processes during embryonic development. Postnatally, Hh has important roles in tissue homeostasis and aberrant Hh signaling is associated with developmental disorders and several types of cancer. At the cell surface, the Hh signal is thought to be relayed by the 12 transmembrane domain protein Patched (Ptc) (Hooper and Scott, Cell 59: 75 1-65 (1989); Nakano et al., Nature 341: 508-13 (1989)) and the G-protein-coupled-like receptor Smoothened (Smo) (Alcedo et al., Cell 86: 221-232 (1996); van den Heuvel and Tngham, Nature 382: 547-551 (1996)). Both genetic and biochemical evidence support a receptor model where Ptch and Smo are part of a multi-component receptor complex (Chen and Struhl, Cell 87: 553-63 (1996); Mango et al., Nature 384: 176-9 (1996); Stone et al., Nature 384:129-34 (1996)). Upon binding of Hh to Ptch, the normal inhibitory effect of Ptch on Smo is relieved, allowing Smo to transduce the Hh signal across the plasma membrane. However, the exact mechanism by which Ptch controls Smo activity still has yet to be clarified.
[0003] The signaling cascade initiated by Smo results in activation of Gli transcription factors that translocate into the nucleus where they control transcription of target genes. Gli has been shown to influence transcription of Hh pathway inhibitors such as Ptc and Hip I in a negative feedback loop indicating that tight control of the Hh pathway activity is required for proper cellular differentiation and organ formation. Uncontrolled activation of Hh signaling pathway is associated with malignancies in particular those of the brain, skin and muscle as well as angiogenesis. An explanation for this is that the Hh pathway has been shown to regulate cell proliferation in adults by activation of genes involved in cell cycle progression such as cyclin D which is involved in G1-S transition. Also, Sonic Hedgehog (SHh), an ortholog of Hh, blocks cell-cycle arrest mediated by p21. an inhibitor of cyclin dependent kinases. Hh signaling is further implicated in cancer by inducing components in the EGFR pathway (EGF, Her2) involved in proliferation as well as components in the PDGF (PDGFa) and VEGF pathways involved in angiogenesis. Loss of function mutations in the Ptch gene have been identified in patients with the basal cell nevus syndrome (BCNS), a hereditary disease characterized by multiple basal cell carcinomas (BCCs). Dysfunctional Ptch gene mutations have also been associated with a large percentage of sporadic basal cell carcinoma tumors (Chidambaram et al., Cancer Research 56: 4599- 601 (1996); Gailani et al., Nature Genet. 14: 78-81 (1996); Hahn et al., Cell 85: 841-51 (1996); Johnson et al., Science 272: 1668-71 (1996); Unden et al., Cancer Res. 56: 4562-5; Wicking et al., Am. J. Hum. Genet. 60: 21-6 (1997)). Loss of Ptch function is thought to cause an uncontrolled Smo signaling in basal cell carcinoma. Similarly, activating Smo mutations have been identified in sporadic BCC tumors (Xie et al., Nature 391: 90-2 (1998)), emphasizing the role of Smo as the signaling subunit in the receptor complex for SHh. Various inhibitors of hedgehog signaling have been investigated such as Cyclopamine, a natural alkaloid that has been shown to arrest cell cycle at G0-GI and to induce apoptosis in SCLC. Cyclopamine is believed to inhibit Smo by binding to its heptahelical bundle. Forskolin has been shown to inhibit the Hh pathway downstream from Smo by activating protein kinase A (PKA) which maintains Gli transcription factors inactive. Despite advances with these and other compounds, there remains a need for potent inhibitors of the hedgehog signaling pathway.

[0075] When preparing compounds of the invention in accordance with the invention, it is open to a person skilled in the art to routinely select the form of the intermediate compound which provides the best combination of features for this purpose. Such features include the melting point, solubility, processability and yield of the intermediate form and the resulting ease with which the product may be purified on isolation.
[0076] The invention also relates to methods for making intermediate compounds that are useful for making the compounds of the invention.
[0077] As noted above, invention also relates to the pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of the invention. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of the invention include the acid addition and base salts thereof. Suitable acid addition salts are formed from acids which form non-toxic salts. Non-limiting examples of suitable acid addition salts include the acetate, adipate, aspartate, benzoate, besylate, bicarbonate/carbonate, bisulphate/sulphate, borate, camsylate, citrate, cyclamate, edisylate, esylate, formate, fumarate, gluceptate, gluconate, glucuronate, hexafluorophosphate, hibenzate, hydrochloride/chloride, hydrobromide/bromide, hydroiodide/iodide, isethionate, lactate, malate, maleate, malonate, mesylate, methylsulphate, naphthylate, 2-napsylate, nicotinate, nitrate, orotate, oxalate, palmitate, pamoate, phosphate/hydrogen phosphate/dihydrogen phosphate, pyroglutamate, saccharate, stearate, succinate, tannate, tartrate, tosylate, trifluoroacetate and xinofoate salts.
[0078] Suitable base salts are formed from bases which form non-toxic salts. Non-limiting examples of suitable base salts include the aluminium, arginine, benzathine, calcium, choline, diethylamine, diolamine, glycine, lysine, magnesium, meglumine, olamine, potassium, sodium, tromethamine and zinc salts.
[0079] Hemisalts of acids and bases may also be formed, for example, hemisulphate and hemicalcium salts.
[0080] For a review on suitable salts, see Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection, and Use by Stahl and Wermuth (Wiley-VCH, 2002). Methods for making pharmaceutically acceptable salts of compounds of the invention are known to one of skill in the art.
[0081] The compounds of the invention may also exist in unsolvated and solvated forms. Accordingly, the invention also relates to the hydrates and solvates of the compounds of the invention.
[0082] The term 'solvate' is used herein to describe a molecular complex comprising the compound of the invention and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable solvent molecules, for example, ethanol.
[0083] The term 'hydrate' is employed when said solvent is water. One embodiment of a hydrate is one that defines isolated site, channel, or metal-ion coordinated hydrates - see Polymorphism in Pharmaceutical Solids by K. R. Morris (Ed. H. G. Brittain. Marcel Dekker, 1995). Isolated site hydrates are ones in which the water molecules are isolated from direct contact with each other by intervening organic molecules. In channel hydrates, the water molecules lie in lattice channels where they are next to other water molecules. In metal-ion coordinated hydrates, the water molecules are bonded to the metal ion.
[0084] When the solvent or water is tightly bound, the complex will have a well-defined stoichiometry independent of humidity. When, however, the solvent or water is weakly bound, as in channel solvates and hygroscopic compounds, the water/solvent content will be dependent on humidity and drying conditions. In such cases, non-stoichiometry will be the norm.
[0085] Thedisclosure also relates to prodrugs of the compounds of the invention. Thus certain derivatives of compounds of the invention which may have little or no pharmacological activity themselves can, when administered into or onto the body, be converted into compounds of the invention having the desired activity, for example, by hydrolytic cleavage. Such derivatives are referred to as "prodrugs". Further information on the use of prodrugs may be found in Prodrugs as Novel Delivery Systems, Vol. 14, ACS Symposium Series (T. Higuchi and W. Stella) and Bioreversible Carriers in Drug Design, Pergamon Press, 1987 (Ed. E. B. Roche, American Pharmaceutical Association).
[0086] Prodrugs can, for example, be produced by replacing appropriate functionalities present in the compounds of the invention with certain moieties known to those skilled in the art as 'pro-moieties' as described, for example, in Design of Prodrugs by H. Bundgaard (Elsevier, 1985).
[0087] Some non-limiting examples of prodrugs include
- (i) where the compound of the invention contains a carboxylic acid functionality
(-COOH), an ester thereof, for example, a compound wherein the hydrogen of the carboxylic acid functionality of the compound of Formula I is replaced by (C1-C6)alkyl; - (ii) where the compound of the invention contains an alcohol functionality (-OH), an ether thereof, for example, a compound wherein the hydrogen of the alcohol functionality of the compound of the invention is replaced by (C1-C6)alkanoyloxymethyl; and
- (iii) where the compound of the invention contains a primary or secondary amino functionality (-NH2 or -NHR where R ≠ H), an amide thereof, for example, a compound wherein, as the case may be, one or both hydrogens of the amino functionality of the compound of the invention is/are replaced by (C1-C6)alkanoyl.
[0088] Further examples of replacement groups in accordance with the foregoing examples and examples of other prodrug types may be found in the aforementioned references.
[0089] Also disclosed are metabolites of compounds of the invention, that is, compounds formed in vivo upon administration of the drug. Some examples of metabolites in accordance with the invention include:
- (i) where the compound of the invention contains a methyl group, an hydroxymethyl derivative thereof (e.g., -CH3 -> -CH2OH):
- (ii) where the compound of the invention contains an alkoxy group, an hydroxy derivative thereof (e.g., -OH);
- (iii) where the compound of the invention contains a tertiary amino group, a secondary amino derivative thereof;
- (iv) where the compound of the invention contains a secondary amino group, a primary derivative thereof (e.g., -NH2);
- (v) where the compound of the invention contains a phenyl moiety, a phenol derivative thereof (e.g., -Ph -> -PhOH); and
- (vi) where the compound of the invention contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid derivative thereof (e.g., -CONH2 -> COOH).
[0090] Compounds of the invention containing one or more asymmetric carbon atoms can exist as two or more stereoisomers. Where a compound of the invention contains an alkenyl or alkenylene group, geometric cis/trans (or Z/E) isomers are possible. Where structural isomers are interconvertible via a low energy barrier, tautomeric isomerism ('tautomerism') can occur. This can take the form of proton tautomerism in compounds of the invention containing, for example, an imino, keto, or oxime group, or so-called valence tautomerism in compounds which contain an aromatic moiety. It follows that a single compound may exhibit more than one type of isomerism.
[0091] Included within the scope of the present invention are all stereoisomers, geometric isomers and tautomeric forms of the compounds of the invention, including compounds exhibiting more than one type of isomerism, and mixtures of one or more thereof. Also included are acid addition or base salts wherein the counterion is optically active, for example, d-lactate or I-lysine, or racemic, for example, dl-tartrate or dl-arginine.
[0092] The term "stereoisomers" refers to compounds that have identical chemical constitution, but differ with regard to the arrangement of their atoms or groups in space. In particular, the term "enantiomers" refers to two stereoisomers of a compound that are non-superimposable mirror images of one another. The terms "racemic" or "racemic mixture," as used herein, refer to a 1:1 mixture of enantiomers of a particular compound. The term "diastereomers", on the other hand, refers to the relationship between a pair of stereoisomers that comprise two or more asymmetric centers and are not mirror images of one another.
[0093] The compounds of the present invention may have asymmetric carbon atoms. The carbon-carbon bonds of the compounds of the present invention may be depicted herein using a solid line (
), a solid wedge (
), or a dotted wedge (
). The use of a solid line to depict bonds from asymmetric carbon atoms is meant to indicate that all possible stereoisomers at that carbon atom are included. The use of either a solid or dotted wedge to depict bonds from asymmetric carbon atoms is meant to indicate that only the stereoisomer shown is meant to be included. It is possible that compounds of the invention may contain more than one asymmetric carbon atom. In those compounds, the use of a solid line to depict bonds from asymmetric carbon atoms is meant to indicate that all possible stereoisomers are meant to be included. The use of a solid line to depict bonds from one or more asymmetric carbon atoms in a compound of the invention and the use of a solid or dotted wedge to depict bonds from other asymmetric carbon atoms in the same compound is meant to indicate that a mixture of diastereomers is present.
[0094] Cis/trans isomers may be separated by conventional techniques well known to those skilled in the art, for example, chromatography and fractional crystallisation.
[0095] Conventional techniques for the preparation/isolation of individual enantiomers include chiral synthesis from a suitable optically pure precursor or resolution of the racemate (or the racemate of a salt or derivative) using, for example, chiral high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC).
[0096] Alternatively, the racemate (or a racemic precursor) may be reacted with a suitable optically active compound, for example, an alcohol, or, in the case where the compound of the invention contains an acidic or basic moiety, a base or acid such as 1-phenylethylamine or tartaric acid. The resulting diastereomeric mixture may be separated by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization and one or both of the diastereoisomers converted to the corresponding pure enantiomer(s) by means well known to a skilled person.
[0097] Chiral compounds of the invention (and chiral precursors thereof) may be obtained in enantiomerically-enriched form using chromatography, typically HPLC, on an asymmetric resin with a mobile phase consisting of a hydrocarbon, typically heptane or hexane, containing from 0 to 50% by volume of an alcoholic solvent such as isopropanol, typically from 2% to 20%, and from 0 to 5% by volume of an alkylamine, typically 0.1% diethylamine. Concentration of the eluate affords the enriched mixture.
[0098] When any racemate crystallizes, crystals of two different types are possible. The first type is the racemic compound (true racemate) referred to above wherein one homogeneous form of crystal is produced containing both enantiomers in equimolar amounts. The second type is the racemic mixture or conglomerate wherein two forms of crystal are produced in equimolar amounts each comprising a single enantiomer.
[0099] While both of the crystal forms present in a racemic mixture have identical physical properties, they may have different physical properties compared to the true racemate. Racemic mixtures may be separated by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art - see, for example, Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds by E. L. Eliel and S. H. Wilen (Wiley, 1994).

Detailed Description of the Invention
[0108] The compounds of this disclosure can be prepared by the following general methods and by methods described in detail in the Experimental Section.
[0109] Compounds claimed herein can be prepared as described in Scheme 1. In Step 1, Compound A, substituted with a carboxylic acid ester and a protected amine, is reacted with mesylchloride to form the corresponding mesylate of the alcohol which is then displaced with sodium azide and subsequently reduced under hydrogenation or similar reductive conditions well known to one skilled in the art. One skilled in the art will recognize this transformation could alternatively be accomplished in several different routes such as oxidation of the alcohol to the ketone and subsequent reductive amination with a protected amine that is then deprotected. In Step 2 the amino group attached to Compound B can be reacted with, for example, an activated carboxylic acid, isocyanate or carbamoyl chloride to produce the compounds of compound C. The carboxylic acid may be activated as a carboxylic acid chloride, as a mixed anhydride, formed from, for example pivaloyl chloride or isopropylchloroformate, or as an active intermediate such as is formed by treatment of a carboxylic acid with coupling reagents such as N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N'-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride, propylphosphonic acid anhydride, or other amide forming reagents well known to those skilled in the art. Step 2 is best performed in an aprotic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxane or dimethylformamide and at a range of temperatures but generally from room temperature to about 80 °C. In Step 3 the carboxylic ester can be deprotected by means known to one skilled in the art. For example, an ethyl ester could be saponified with lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide in, for example, an alcoholic solvent such as ethanol or in a mixture of an organic solvent such as ethanol, methanol or tetrahydrofuran with water. The saponification could be performed at a range of temperatures but generally at from room temperature to about 80 °C. In Step 4 the carboxylic acid of Compound D is reacted with a substituted benzene-1,2-diamine in the presence of a coupling reagent such as N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N'-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride, propylphosphonic acid anhydride, or other amide forming reagents well known to those skilled in the art. Starting materials are commercially available, unless otherwise noted in the Examples. The reaction is best performed in an aprotic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxane, dimethylformamide, or acetonitrile. The reaction can be performed at a range of temperatures but generally from room temperature to about 80 °C. In Step 5 the resulting benzene-1,2-diamine mono amide can then be cyclized to form the benzimidazole ring by heating to about 100 °C in the presence of an acid such as acetic acid, or by treatment with additional portions of a coupling agent as described above. Subsequently in Step 6 the t-butoxycarbonyl protecting group is removed with hydrogen chloride in an appropriate solvent such as 1,4-dioxane, ethyl acetate or methylene chloride or with trifluoroacetic acid, neat or in an appropriate solvent such as methylene chloride. Step 6 can be performed at a range of temperatures but generally from about 0 °C to room temperature. One skilled in the art will recognize that although a t-butoxycarbonyl protecting group is shown in Scheme 1, the amine could be protected in alternate ways, such as with a benzyloxycarbonyl group, which would be removed by methods known to one skilled in the art. In Step 7 the amine of Compound G can be substituted by reacting with an aldehyde and reducing the resulting imine with a reducing agent such as sodium cyanoborohydride in a solvent such as methanol at temperatures ranging from about 0 °C to about 80 °C. Alternative reducing agents such as sodium triacetoxyborohydride can be used as well as others know to one skilled in the art. Step 7 could also be accomplished by reacting Compound G with an alkylating agent such as methyl iodide with appropriate protection of reactive functionality in Compound G as would be known by one skilled in the art.
[0110] As an example, the synthesis of the free base of Example 31 is shown in Scheme 2 and is described is more detail below. Protected ester compound J, which is commercially available, is allowed to react with a mixture of methanesulfonyl chloride and 4-N,N-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) in pyridine to provide compound K. Compound K is then allowed to react with sodium azide in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) to provide azido compound L, which is then reduced using hydrogen and palladium on carbon to afford amino compound M. Reaction of compound M with 4-isocyanatobenzonitrile in tetrahydrofuran (THF) and in the presence of triethylamine affords urea derivative compound N. The ester in compound N was then saponified using lithium hydroxide in a mixture of THF, methanol, and water to afford the corresponding carboxylic acid compound O. Coupling of compound O with 1,2-phenylenediamine using benzotriazole-1-yl-oxy-tris-(dimethylamino)-phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (BOP) as a coupling agent and diisopropylethylamine (DIEA) was performed in DMF to provide amide compound P. Reaction of compound P first with acetic acid afforded a BOC-protected indole intermediate that was then allowed to react with trifluoroacetic acid to remove the BOC group. This further intermediate compound was then allowed to react with formaldehyde in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride to afford final compound Q. Compound Q can be obtained in free base form or salt form according to methods known to those of ordinary skill in the art. Precursor compounds such as J, and corresponding stereoisomers, are commercially available or can be prepared according to methods known to those of skill in the art.

The cells were then transfected using Fugene 6 (Roch # 11 814 443 001) in the following reaction: 48 µL Fugene 6 and 745 µL Opti-MEM (Invitrogen #31985-070) were mixed and allowed to sit at room temperature for 5 minutes. 8 µg of pGL4.14/mGli(CS) DNA (10x murine Gli response elements and minimal CS promoter) and 0.5 µg of pEGFP DNA (Clontech) were added, gently mixed and incubated at room temperature for 20 minutes. This entire transfection mix was then added to the T-75 flask containing the cells. The cells were incubated at 37 °C, 5% CO2 for 18-24 hours.
[0114] On Day 2, the transfected cells were trypsinized and seeded into white 96 well plates (Costar #3917) in 100 µL/well of growth medium at a concentration of 20,000 cells/well. The cells were allowed to recover for 4 hours before adding serum starvation medium Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM, Invitrogen #21063-029) supplemented with 2 mM L-glutamine, 0.1 units/mL penicillin and 0.1 µg/mL streptomycin, and 0.5% Calf Serum (CS, Invitrogen #26170-043).

The transfected cells were incubated with compounds and SHh for 20 hours at 37 °C, 5% CO2.
[0116] Luciferase assays were conducted on Day 4 using Dual-Glo Luciferase assay system (Promega #E2940) according to Promega's protocol. Briefly, Dual-Glo luciferase reagent was made up and 100 µL were added to each well of the 96 well plate containing media.
