Described herein are compounds, methods of making such compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and medicaments containing such compounds, and such compounds for use in methods to treat or prevent diseases or conditions associated with the enzyme poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP).

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The family of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerases (PARP) includes approximately 18 proteins, which all display a certain level of homology in their catalytic domain but differ in their cellular functions (Ame et al., BioEssays., 26(8), 882-893 (2004)). PARP-1 and PARP-2 are unique members of the family, in that their catalytic activities are stimulated by the occurrence of DNA strand breaks.

PARP has been implicated in the signaling of DNA damage through its ability to recognize and rapidly bind to DNA single or double strand breaks (D'Amours, et al., Biochem. J., 342, 249-268 (1999)). It participates in a variety of DNA-related functions including gene amplification, cell division, differentiation, apoptosis, DNA base excision repair as well as effects on telomere length and chromosome stability (d'Adda di Fagagna, et al., Nature Gen., 23(1), 76-80 (1999)).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

PARP has an essential role in facilitating DNA repair, controlling RNA transcription, mediating cell death, and regulating immune response. PARP inhibitors demonstrate efficacy in numerous models of disease particularly in models of ischemia reperfusion injury, inflammatory disease, degenerative diseases, protection from above adverse effects of cytotoxic compounds, and potentiation of cytotoxic cancer therapy. They are efficacious in the prevention of ischemia reperfusion injury in models of myocardial infarction, stoke, other neural trauma, organ transplantation, as well as reperfusion of the eye, kidney, gut and skeletal muscle. Inhibitors are efficacious in inflammatory diseases such as arthritis, gout, inflammatory bowel disease, CNS inflammation such as MS and allergic encephalitis, sepsis, septic shock, hemorrhagic shock, pulmonary fibrosis, and uveitis. PARP inhibitors also show benefit in several models of degenerative disease including diabetes and Parkinson's disease. PARP inhibitors ameliorate the liver toxicity following acetaminophen overdose, cardiac and kidney toxicities from doxorubicin and platinum based antineoplastic agents, as well as skin damage secondary to sulfur mustards. In various cancer models, PARP inhibitors are shown to potentiate radiation and chemotherapy by increasing apoptosis of cancer cells, limiting tumor growth, decreasing metastasis, and prolonging the survival of tumor-bearing animals.

The primary function of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) system is to eliminate single-base mismatches and insertion-deletion loops that may arise during DNA replication. Insertion-deletion loops result from gains or losses of short repeat units within microsatellite sequences, also known as microsatellite instability (MSI). At least six different MMR proteins are required. For mismatch recognition, the MSH2 protein forms a heterodimer with either MSH6 or MSH3 depending on the type of lesion to be repaired (MSH6 is required for the correction of single-base mispairs, whereas both MSH3 and MSH6 may contribute to the correction of insertion-deletion loops). A heterodimer of MLH1 and PMS2 coordinates the interplay between the mismatch recognition complex and other proteins necessary for MMR. These additional proteins may include at least exonuclease 1 (EXO 1), possibly helicase(s), proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), single-stranded DNA-binding protein (RPA), and DNA polymerases δ and ε. In addition to PMS2, MLH 1 may heterodimerize with two additional proteins, MLH3 and PMS 1. Recent observations indicate that PMS2 is required for the correction of single-base mismatches, and PMS2 and MLH3 both contribute to the correction of insertion-deletion loops. Additional homologs of the human MMR proteins are known that are required for functions other than MMR. These proteins include MSH4 and MSH5 that are necessary for meiotic (and possibly mitotic) recombination but are not presumed to participate in MMR.

Germline mutations of human MMR genes cause susceptibility to hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC), one of the most common cancer syndromes in humans. An excess of colon cancer and a defined spectrum of extracolonic cancers, diagnosed at an early age and transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait, constitute the clinical definition of the syndrome. MSI, the hallmark of HNPCC, occurs in approximately 15% to 25% of sporadic tumors of the colorectum and other organs as well. According to international criteria, a high degree of MSI (MSI-H) is defined as instability at two or more of five loci or ≥30% to 40% of all microsatellite loci studied, whereas instability at fewer loci is referred to as MSI-low (MSI-L). MSI occurs in a substantial proportion (2% to 50% of tumors) among non-HNPCC cancers (eg, cancers of the breast, prostate, and lung). On the basis of the proportion of unstable markers, categories MSS, MSI-L, and MSI-H can be distinguished in these cancers in analogy to HNPCC cancers. In one embodiment the method is for treating a cancer deficient in mismatch DNA repair pathway. In another embodiment the method is for treating a cancer demonstrating microsatellite instability due to reduced or impaired DNA repair pathways. In another embodiment the method is for treating a cancer demonstrating genomic instability due to reduced or impaired DNA repair pathways.

Other objects, features and advantages of the compounds, methods and compositions described herein will become apparent from the following description.

Described herein are compounds, methods of making such compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and medicaments that include such compounds, and such compounds for use in methods to treat or prevent diseases or conditions associated with PARP activity.

Described herein are compounds having activity in inhibiting the enzyme poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP). In some embodiments, the compounds have the structure set forth in Formula (I), (IA) or (II).

The mammalian enzyme PARP-1 is a multidomain protein. PARP-1 is implicated in the signaling of DNA damage through its ability to recognize and rapidly bind to DNA single or double strand breaks, D'Amours, et al., Biochem. J., 342, 249-268 (1999); and Virag et al. Pharmacological Reviews, vol. 54, no. 3, 375-429 (2002).

The family ofpoly(ADP-ribose)polymerases includes approximately 18 proteins, which all display a certain level of homology in their catalytic domain but differ in their cellular functions. PARP-1 and PARP-2 are unique members of the family, in that their catalytic activities are stimulated by the occurrence of DNA strand breaks, Ame et al., BioEssays., 26(8), 882-893 (2004).

PARP-1 participates in a variety of DNA-related functions including gene amplification, cell division, differentiation, apoptosis, DNA base excision repair as well as effects on telomere length and chromosome stability, d'Adda di Fagagna, et al., Nature Gen., 23(1), 76-80 (1999).

Studies on the mechanism by which PARP-1 modulates DNA repair and other processes identifies its importance in the formation of poly(ADP-ribose) chains within the cellular nucleus. The DNA-bound, activated PARP-1 utilizes NAD+ to synthesize poly(ADP-ribose) on a variety of nuclear target proteins, including topoisomerases, histones and PARP itself, Althaus, F. R. and Richter, C., ADP-Ribosylation of Proteins: Enzymology and Biological Significance, Springer-Verlag, Berlin (1987); and Rhun, et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., 245, 1-10 (1998).

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is also associated with malignant transformation. For example, PARP-1 activity is higher in the isolated nuclei of SV40-transformed fibroblasts, while both leukemic cells and colon cancer cells show higher enzyme activity than the equivalent normal leukocytes and colon mucosa. Furthermore, malignant prostate tumors have increased levels of active PARP as compared to benign prostate cells, which is associated with higher levels of genetic instability, Miwa, et al., Arch. Biochem. Biophys., 181, 313-321 (1977); Burzio, et al., Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. Med., 149, 933-938 (1975); Hirai, et al., Cancer Res., 43, 3441-3446 (1983); and Mcnealy, et al., Anticancer Res., 23, 1473-1478 (2003).

In cells treated with alkylating agents, the inhibition of PARP leads to a marked increase in DNA-strand breakage and cell killing. PARP-1 inhibitors also enhance the effects of radiation response by suppressing the repair of potentially lethal damage. PARP inhibitors are also effective in radio-sensitizing hypoxic tumor cells. In certain tumor cell lines, chemical inhibition of PARP activity is also associated with marked sensitization to very low doses of radiation.

Furthermore, PARP-1 knockout (PARP -/-) animals exhibit genomic instability in response to alkylating agents and γ-irradiation. Data indicates that PARP-1 and PARP-2 possess both overlapping and non-redundant functions in the maintenance of genomic stability, making them both interesting targets, Wang, et al., Genes Dev., 9, 509-520 (1995); Menissier de Murcia, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 94, 7303-7307 (1997); and Menissier de Murcia, et al., EMBO. J., 22(9), 2255-2263 (2003).

There is also a role for PARP-1 in certain vascular diseases, such as, for example, septic shock, ischaemic injury and neurotoxicity. Oxygen radical DNA damage that leads to strand breaks in DNA, which are subsequently recognized by PARP-1, is a major contributing factor to such disease states as shown by PARP-1 inhibitor studies. PARP also plays a role in the pathogenesis of hemorrhagic shock, Cantoni, et al., Biochim, Biophys. Acta, 1014, 1-7 (1989); Szabo, et al., J. Clin. Invest., 100, 723-735 (1997); Cosi, et al., J. Neurosci. Res., 39, 3846 (1994); Said, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 93, 4688-4692 (1996); and Liaudet, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 97(3), 10203-10208 (2000).

Furthermore, efficient retroviral infection of mammalian cells is blocked by the inhibition of PARP-1 activity. Such inhibition of recombinant retroviral vector infections occurs in various different cell types. In some embodiments, inhibitors of PARP-1 are used in anti-viral therapies and in cancer treatment, Gaken, et al., J. Virology, 70(6), 3992-4000 (1996).

Moreover, in certain embodiments, PARP-1 inhibition delays the onset of aging characteristics in human fibroblasts. While not intending to bound by any theory, this may be related to the role that PARP plays in controlling telomere function, Rattan and Clark, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Comm., 201(2), 665-672 (1994); and d'Adda di Fagagna, et al., Nature Gen., 23(1), 76-80 (1999).

In some embodiments, PARP inhibitors are relevant to the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, Szabo C., Role of Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase Activation in the Pathogenesis of Shock and Inflammation, In PARP as a Therapeutic Target; Ed J. Zhang, 2002 by CRC Press; 169-204; Zingarelli, B, et al.. Immunology, 113(4), 509-517 (2004); and Jijon, H. B., et al., Am. J. Physiol. Gastrointest. Liver Physiol., 279, G641-G651 (2000).

In certain embodiments, PARP inhibitors, such as those of Formula (I), (IA) or (II), have utility in: (a) preventing or inhibiting poly(ADP-ribose) chain formation by, e.g., inhibiting the activity of cellular PARP (PARP-1 and/or PARP-2); (b) treating vascular disease; septic shock; ischaemic injury, both cerebral and cardiovascular; reperfusion injury, both cerebral and cardiovascular; neurotoxicity, including acute and chronic treatments for stroke and Parkinson's disease; hemorrhagic shock; inflammatory diseases, such as arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease; multiple sclerosis; secondary effects of diabetes; as well as the acute treatment of cytotoxicity following cardiovascular surgery or diseases ameliorated by the inhibition of the activity of PARP; (c) use as an adjunct in cancer therapy or for potentiating tumor cells for treatment with ionizing radiation and/or chemotherapeutic agents.

In specific embodiments, compounds provided herein, such as, for example, Formula (I), (IA) or (II), are used in anti-cancer combination therapies (or as adjuncts) along with alkylating agents, such as methyl methanesulfonate (MMS), temozolomide and dacarbazine (DTIC), also with topoisomerase-1 inhibitors like Topotecan, Irinotecan, Rubitecan, Exatecan, Lurtotecan, Gimetecan, Diflomotecan (homocamptothecins); as well as 7-substituted non-silatecans; the 7-silyl camptothecins, BNP 1350; and non-camptothecin topoisomerase-I inhibitors such as indolocarbazoles also dual topoisomerase-I and II inhibitors like the benzophenazines, XR 11576/MLN 576 and benzopyridoindoles. In certain embodiments, such combinations are given, for example, as intravenous preparations or by oral administration as dependent on the method of administration for the particular agent.

In some embodiments, PARP inhibitors, such as, for example, compounds of Formula (I), (IA) or (II), are used in the treatment of disease ameliorated by the inhibition of PARP, which includes administering to a subject in need of treatment a therapeutically-effective amount of a compound provided herein, and in one embodiment in the form of a pharmaceutical composition. In certain embodiments, PARP inhibitors, such as, for example, compounds of Formula (I), (IA) or (II), are used in the treatment of cancer, which includes administering to a subject in need of treatment a therapeutically-effective amount of a compound provided herein in combination, and in one embodiment in the form of a pharmaceutical composition, simultaneously or sequentially with radiotherapy (ionizing radiation) or chemotherapeutic agents.

In certain embodiments, PARP inhibitors, such as, for example, compounds of Formula (I), (IA) or (II), are used for the treatment of cancer which is deficient in Homologous Recombination (HR) dependent DNA double strand break (DSB) repair activity, or in the treatment of a patient with a cancer which is deficient in HR dependent DNA DSB repair activity.

The HR dependent DNA DSB repair pathway repairs double-strand breaks (DSBs) in DNA via homologous mechanisms to reform a continuous DNA helix. The components of the HR dependent DNA DSB repair pathway include, but are not limited to, ATM (NM_000051), RAD51 (NM_002875), RAD51L1 (NM_002877), RAD51C (NM_002876), RAD51L3 (NM_002878), DMC1 (NM_007068), XRCC2 (NM_005431), XRCC3 (NM_005432), RAD52 (NM_002879), RAD54L (NM_003579), RAD54B (NM_012415), BRCA1 (NM_007295), BRCA2 (NM_000059), RAD50 (NM_005732), MRE11A (NM_005590) and NBS1 (NM_002485). Other proteins involved in the HR dependent DNA DSB repair pathway include regulatory factors such as EMSY. HR components are also described in Wood, et al., Science, 291, 1284-1289 (2001), K. K. Khanna and S. P. Jackson, Nat. Genet. 27(3): 247-254 (2001); and Hughes-Davies, et al., Cell, 115, pp 523-535.

In some embodiments, a cancer which is deficient in HR dependent DNA DSB repair includes one or more cancer cells which have a reduced or abrogated ability to repair DNA DSBs through that pathway, relative to normal cells, i.e. the activity of the HR dependent DNA DSB repair pathway are reduced or abolished in the one or more cancer cells.

In certain embodiments, the activity of one or more components of the HR dependent DNA DSB repair pathway is abolished in the one or more cancer cells of an individual having a cancer which is deficient in HR dependent DNA DSB repair. Components of the HR dependent DNA DSB repair pathway include the components listed above.

In some embodiments, the cancer cells have a BRCA1 and/or a BRCA2 deficient phenotype, i.e., BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 activity is reduced or abolished in the cancer cells. In certain embodiments, cancer cells with this phenotype are deficient in BRCA1 and/or BRCA2, i.e., expression and/or activity of BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 is reduced or abolished in the cancer cells, for example by means of mutation or polymorphism in the encoding nucleic acid, or by means of amplification, mutation or polymorphism in a gene encoding a regulatory factor, for example the EMSY gene which encodes a BRCA2 regulatory factor or by an epigenetic mechanism such as gene promoter methylation.

BRCA1 and BRCA2 are tumor suppressors whose wild-type alleles are frequently lost in tumors of heterozygous carriers. BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 mutations are associated with breast cancer. Amplification of the EMSY gene, which encodes a BRCA2 binding factor, is associated with breast and ovarian cancer, Jasin M., Oncogene, 21 (58), 8981-93 (2002); Tutt, et al., Trends Mol Med., 8(12), 571-6, (2002); and Radice, P. J., Exp Clin Cancer Res., 21(3 Suppl), 9-12 (2002).

Carriers of mutations in BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 are also at elevated risk of cancer of the ovary, prostate and pancreas.

In some embodiments, the individual is heterozygous for one or more variations, such as mutations and polymorphisms, in BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 or a regulator thereof. The detection of variation in BRCA1 and BRCA2 is described, for example in EP 699 754, EP 705 903, Neuhausen, S. L. and Ostrander, E. A., Genet. Test, 1, 75-83 (1992); Janatova M., et al., Neoplasma, 50(4), 246-50 (2003). Determination of amplification of the BRCA2 binding factor EMSY is described in Hughes-Davies, et al., Cell, 115, 523-535).

In certain instances, mutations and polymorphisms associated with cancer are detected at the nucleic acid level by detecting the presence of a variant nucleic acid sequence or at the protein level by detecting the presence of a variant (i.e. a mutant or allelic variant) polypeptide.

In general, carbon electrophiles are susceptible to attack by complementary nucleophiles, including carbon nucleophiles, wherein an attacking nucleophile brings an electron pair to the carbon electrophile in order to form a new bond between the nucleophile and the carbon electrophile.

Suitable carbon nucleophiles include, but are not limited to alkyl, alkenyl, aryl and alkynyl Grignard, organolithium, organozinc, alkyl-, alkenyl, aryl- and alkynyl-tin reagents (organostannanes), alkyl-, alkenyl-, aryl- and alkynyl-borane reagents (organoboranes and organoboronates); these carbon nucleophiles have the advantage of being kinetically stable in water or polar organic solvents. Other carbon nucleophiles include phosphorus ylids, enol and enolate reagents; these carbon nucleophiles have the advantage of being relatively easy to generate from precursors. Carbon nucleophiles, when used in conjunction with carbon electrophiles, engender new carbon-carbon bonds between the carbon nucleophile and carbon electrophile.

Non-carbon nucleophiles suitable for coupling to carbon electrophiles include but are not limited to primary and secondary amines, thiols, thiolates, and thioethers, alcohols, alkoxides, azides, semicarbazides, and the like. These non-carbon nucleophiles, when used in conjunction with carbon electrophiles, typically generate heteroatom linkages (C-X-C), wherein X is a heteroatom, e. g, oxygen or nitrogen.

Use of Protecting Groups

The term "protecting group" refers to chemical moieties that block some or all reactive moieties and prevent such groups from participating in chemical reactions until the protective group is removed. In specific embodiments, more than one protecting group is utilized. In more specific embodiments, each protective group is removable by a different process. Protective groups that are cleaved under totally disparate reaction conditions fulfill the requirement of differential removal. In various embodiments, protective groups are removed by acid, base, or hydrogenolysis. Groups such as trityl, dimethoxytrityl, acetal and t-butyldimethylsilyl are acid labile and are, in some embodiments, used to protect carboxy and hydroxy reactive moieties in the presence of amino groups protected with Cbz groups, which are removable by hydrogenolysis, and Fmoc groups, which are base labile. In some embodiments, carboxylic acid and hydroxy reactive moieties are blocked with base labile groups such as, without limitation, methyl, ethyl, and acetyl in the presence of amines blocked with acid labile groups such as t-butyl carbamate or with carbamates that are both acid and base stable but hydrolytically removable.

In certain embodiments, carboxylic acid and hydroxy reactive moieties are blocked with hydrolytically removable protective groups such as the benzyl group, while, in some embodiments, amine groups capable of hydrogen bonding with acids are blocked with base labile groups such as Fmoc. In various embodiments, carboxylic acid reactive moieties are protected by conversion to simple ester derivatives as exemplified herein, or they are blocked with oxidatively-removable protective groups such as 2,4-dimethoxybenzyl, while, in some embodiments, co-existing amino groups are blocked with fluoride labile silyl carbamates.

In certain instances, allyl blocking groups are useful in the presence of acid- and base-protecting groups since the former are stable. In some embodiments, such groups are subsequently removed by metal or pi-acid catalysts. For example, in some embodiments, an allyl-blocked carboxylic acid is deprotected with a Pd0-catalyzed reaction in the presence of acid labile t-butyl carbamate or base-labile acetate amine protecting groups. In some embodiments, a protecting group is a resin to which a compound or intermediate is attached. As long as the residue is attached to the resin, that functional group is blocked and cannot react. Once released from the resin, the functional group is available to react.

In some embodiments, blocking/protecting groups are selected from, by way of non-limiting example:

Other protecting groups are described in Greene and Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 3rd Ed., John Wiley & Sons, New York, NY, 1999.

Compounds of Formula (I)

In certain embodiments, compounds of Formula (I), composing of Ia to If, are prepared in various ways, as outlined in Synthetic Schemes 1 and 2. In each scheme, the variables (e.g., R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, Y, and Z) correspond to the same definitions as those recited above while R is alkyl and Y' is the same or different group defined by Y and Z' is the same or different group defined by Z. In some embodiments, compounds are synthesized using methodologies analogous to those described below by the use of appropriate alternative starting materials.

In certain embodiments, compounds of Formula (Ia, and Ib) wherein Y is identical to Z are synthesized according to Synthetic Scheme 1. Thus, the preparation of the intermediate 3 wherein R5 is hydrogen is achieved by condensation of 4-aminoisobenzofuran-1(3H)-one 1 with an aldehyde 2 in the presence of a base preferably alkaline alkoxides in appropriate solvents such as ethyl acetate or ethyl propionate at either ambient or elevated temperature. Compounds of Formula Ia wherein R5 is hydrogen is prepared by treating the intermediate 3 with hydrazine hydrate at ambient or elevated temperature. Compounds of Formula Ia wherein R5 is alkyl or substituted alkyl is prepared from compound of Formula Ia wherein R5 is hydrogen by reductive amination reaction with R7-CHO wherein R7 is alkyl, substituted alkyl. In some embodiments, the preparation of the compounds in Formula Ib is accomplished by further modification of Ia. Through appropriate functional group transformations on the moiety of Y and Z, one affords the compounds of Formula Ib with different entities of Y' and Z' at 2- or 3-positions.

In certain embodiments, compounds of Formula (Ic, and Id) are synthesized according to Synthetic Scheme 2. For example, the intermediate 5 is prepared by condensation of the reagent 1 with an aldehyde 4 in the presence of water absorbent such sodium sulfate or magnesium sulfate at elevated temperature. A subsequent condensation reaction of this intermediate with another aldehyde in the presence of a base preferably alkaline alkoxides in appropriate solvents such as ethyl acetate or ethyl propionate at either ambient or elevated temperature gives the intermediate 6 wherein R5 is hydrogen. Compounds of Formula Ic wherein R5 is hydrogen is prepared by treating the intermediate 6 with hydrazine hydrate at ambient or elevated temperature. Compounds of Formula Ic wherein R5 is alkyl, substituted alkyl are prepared from compounds of Formula Ic wherein R5 is hydrogen by reductive amination reaction with R7-CHO wherein R7 is alkyl, or substituted alkyl. In some embodiments, the preparation of compounds of Formula Id are accomplished by further modification of Ic. Through appropriate functional group transformations on the moiety of Y and Z, one could afford the compounds of Formula Ic with different entities of Y' and Z' at 2- or 3-positions.

In certain embodiments, the compositions containing the compound(s) described herein are administered for prophylactic and/or therapeutic treatments. In certain therapeutic applications, the compositions are administered to a patient already suffering from a disease or condition, in an amount sufficient to cure or at least partially arrest the symptoms of the disease or condition. In some embodiments, amounts effective for this use will depend on the severity and course of the disease or condition, previous therapy, the patient's health status, weight, and response to the drugs, and the judgment of the treating physician. In certain instances, it is considered appropriate for the caregiver to determine such therapeutically effective amounts by routine experimentation (including, but not limited to, a dose escalation clinical trial).

In certain prophylactic applications, compositions containing the compounds described herein are administered to a patient susceptible to or otherwise at risk of a particular disease, disorder or condition. In some embodiments, the amount administere is defined to be a "prophylactically effective amount or dose." In certain embodiments of this use, the precise amounts of compound administered depend on the patient's state of health, weight, and the like. In some embodiments, it is considered appropriate for the caregiver to determine such prophylactically effective amounts by routine experimentation (e.g., a dose escalation clinical trial).

In certain embodiments, once improvement of the patient's conditions has occurred, a maintenance dose is administered if necessary. In some embodiments, the dosage, e.g., of the maintenance dose, or the frequency of administration, or both, are reduced, as a function of the symptoms, to a level at which the improved disease, disorder or condition is retained. In certain embodiments, however, patients are optionally given intermittent treatment on a long-term basis upon any recurrence of symptoms.

In certain embodiments, the amount of a given agent that corresponds to an effective amount varies depending upon factors such as the particular compound, disease or condition and its severity, the identity (e.g., weight) of the subject or host in need of treatment. In some embodiments, the effective amount is, nevertheless, determined according to the particular circumstances surrounding the case, including, e.g., the specific agent that is administered, the route of administration, the condition being treated, and the subject or host being treated. In certain embodiments, however, doses employed for adult human treatment is in the range of about 0.02 to about 5000 mg per day, in a specific embodiment about 1 to about 1500 mg per day.

In certain embodiments, suitable unit dosage forms for oral administration comprise from about 1 to about 50 mg active ingredient. The foregoing ranges are merely suggestive, as the number of variables in regard to an individual treatment regime is large, and considerable excursions from these recommended values are not uncommon. In certain embodiments, the dosages are altered depending on a number of variables, not limited to the activity of the compound used, the disease or condition to be treated, the mode of administration, the requirements of the individual subject, the severity of the disease or condition being treated, and the judgment of the practitioner.

In certain embodiments, toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such therapeutic regimens are determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or experimental animals, including, but not limited to, the determination of the LD50 (the dose lethal to 50% of the population) and the ED50 (the dose therapeutically effective in 50% of the population). The dose ratio between the toxic and therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index and it can be expressed as the ratio between LD50 and ED50.

Biological Studies

Inhibitory effects of test compounds against human PARP 1 enzyme was assessed using Trevigen's Universal Chemiluminescent PARP Assay Kit (Trevigen CAT#4676-096-K) following the manufacturer's recommended protocol.

Immediately prior to performing the assay, the following reagents were prepared: A) 20× PARP Assay Buffer was diluted to 1× with dH2O; B) 10× PARP Cocktail, which contains a mixture of NAD and biotinylated NAD, was diluted by the addition of 10x Activated DNA and 1× PARP Assay Buffer. Both the PARP Cocktail and Activated DNA are 1x after the dilution; C) all test compounds were initially dissolved in DMSO, and subsequently serial diluted with 1× PARP Assay Buffer; D) recombinant human PARP I enzyme was diluted with 1× PARP Assay Buffer to generate 0.5 unit/15 µl; E) 10× Strep-Diluent was diluted to 1× with 1 × PBS/0.1% Triton X-100; F) Just before use, dilute Strep-HRP 500-fold with 1x Strep-Diluent.

The chemiluminescent assays for PARP activity were performed in white 96-well plates that are pre-coated with histones. Briefly, strip wells were removed from the wrapper, 50 µl/well of 1X PARP Buffer was added to rehydrate the histones and incubation was allowed for 30 minutes at room temperature. Removal of the 1X PARP Buffer from the wells was accomplished by tapping the strip wells on paper towel. Serial dilutions of the test compounds were added to duplicate wells in 10 µl/well volume. Final assay concentrations of test compounds were typically between 1 and 0.0001 µM. Subsequently, recombinant human PARP 1 enzyme was added to 0.5 unit of PARP 1 enzyme/well in 15 µl/well volume. Combined volume of enzyme and inhibitor was 25 µl. Incubate the enzyme/inhibitor mixtures for 10 minutes at room temperature. To start the reaction, 25 µl/well of the 1X PARP Cocktail was added to all the wells. Controls included background wells with 1 × Assay Buffer alone (no PARP) and wells with no inhibitor for determining the maximum or 100% PARP activity value. In all cases the final reaction volume was 50 µl.

The reactions were allowed to proceed for 1 hour at room temperature. The plate was then washed 4 times with 200 µl/well 1X PBS/0.1% Triton X-100, using ELx50 Automated Strip Washer (BIO-TEK). After washing, all wells were incubated for 60 minutes with 50 µl/well Strep-HRP, diluted 1:500 with 1 × Strep-Diluent. The plate was washed 4 times with 200 µl/well 1X PBS/0.1% Triton X-100 using ELx50 Automated Strip Washer (BIO-TEK). After washing, dry the wells by tapping plate onto paper towels. Mix equal volumes of PeroxyGlow™ A and B together and add 100 µl per well. The light output was immediately determined in a plate reader (EnVision, by Perkin Elmer) set up for measuring chemiluminescence.

The % enzyme activity for each compound is then calculated using the following equation: %Inhibition=ActivityCtrl−XActivityCtrl−NegativeCtrl×100%

IC50 values (the concentration at which 50% of the enzyme activity is inhibited) of each test compound were calculated using GraphPad Prism5 software.

All of the compounds tested had or were expected to have enzymatic PARP inhibitory activity. Of the compounds tested, over 100 compounds had a PARP inhibitory activity in the enzymatic assay of less than 50 nM, with approximately 60 of these compounds having an inhibitory activity of less than 5 nM.

Chemosensitization assay determines the extent by which a PARP inhibitor enhances the tumor cell-killing effect of cytotoxic drugs expressed as PF50 (potentiation factor at GI50)]. 8000 LoVo cells were seeded into each well of a flat-bottomed 96-well microtiter plate in a volume of 50 µl and incubated in F12K containing 10% (v/v) FBS (medium) overnight at 37 °C. Cells were added with 50 µl medium alone, medium containing 2 µM PARP inhibitor, medium containing increasing concentration of Temozolomide (0-2000 µM), and medium containing 2 µM PARP inhibitor and increasing concentration of Temozolomide (0-2000 µM). Final concentration range for Temozolomide was 0-1000 µM where applicable, final concentration of PARP inhibitor was 1µM where applicable. Final concentration of DMSO was 1% in each well. Cells were allowed to grow for 5 days before cell survival was determined by CellTiter Glo staining (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). Cell growth, determined after subtraction of time 0 values, was expressed as a percentage of the control well that contained medium with 1% DMSO. GI50 (concentration of drug that inhibited growth by 50%) values were calculated from the computer generated curves (GraphPad Software, Inc. San Diego CA). The potentiation factor [PF50 (potentiation factor at GI50)] was calculated as GI50 of Temozolomide alone / GI50 of Temozolomide + PARP inhibitor. Reference: Thomas H.D. et al. (2007). Preclinical selection of a novel poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor for clinical trial. Molecular Cancer Therapy 6, 945-956.

Most of the compounds tested had a PF50 of more than 2X.

Xenograft Studies Antitumor in vivo animal efficacy study

Female athymic nu/nu mice (8-10 weeks old) were used for all in vivo xenograft studies. Mice were quarantined for at least 1 week before experimental manipulation. Exponentially growing cells or in vivo passaged tumor fragments were implanted subcutaneously at the right flank of nude mice. Tumor-bearing mice were randomized according to tumor size into 6-8 mice/group in each study (average tumor size ~150 mm3). Mice were observed daily for survival and tumors were measured twice weekly by caliper in two dimensions and converted to tumor mass using the formula for a prolate ellipsoid (V = 0.5 a x b2), where a and b are the long and short diameters of the tumor, respectively, and assuming unit density (1 mm3 = 1 mg).

Single agent activity: PARP inhibitors were evaluated in Capan-1 and MX-1 xenografts for single agent activities. Compounds were dosed orally (p.o.), once daily for 28 days in vehicle 10% DMAc/6% Solutal/84% PBS, and the same vehicle was used as control. Mice were continuously monitored for 10 more days after the last day of dosing.

Combination study: PARP inhibitory compounds described herein in vehicle 10% DMAc/6% Solutal/84% PBS, were either administered orally, once daily for 5 days with Temozolomide (17mg/kg or 34 mg/kg, p.o., qdx5, 30 min after each dose of compounds) in SW620 xenograft model or dosed orally, once daily for 8 days with 6 mg/kg Cisplatin (once by ip on day 3, 30 min after first dose of PARP inhibitors) in MX-1 xenograft model. Mice were observed and individual tumor was measured for 30 more days after the last dosing of PARP inhibitory compounds.

In vivo animal study on a few potent PARP inhibitory compounds described in the Examples section have demonstrated single agent activities in reducing both MX-1 and Capan-1 tumor growth by themselves when administered orally for 28 days. A few compounds when combined with DNA damaging agent Temozolomide significantly slowed tumor progression in SW620 model. In the MX-1 breast xenograft model, these compounds potentiated the platinum drug Cisplatin causing regression of established tumors, whereas with comparable doses of cisplatin or PARP inhibitor alone, only small to modest tumor inhibition was exhibited.

BRCA2-deficient V-C8 or BRCA2-complimented V-C8 + B2 cells

BRCA2-deficient V-C8 or BRCA2-complimented V-C8 + B2 cells are implanted intramuscularly into the thigh of 40 CD-1 nude mice. Treatments are initiated when tumors are of measurable size (approximate leg diameter of 11 mm). Animals receive either a compound of Formula (I), (IA) or (II) (two doses of 25 or 50 mg/kg in saline) or saline (10 mg/ml) intraperitoneallly administered on days 1-5, and are monitored on a daily basis during treatment (tumor measurements, body weights and clinical evidence are recorded); and as required after the last treatment.

ES-cell-derived tumors

ES-cell-derived tumors (teratomas) are produced by subcutaneous injection of 2 x 106 ES cells into 6-8 week athymic BALB/c-nude (nu/nu) mice. 40 mice are injected with BRCA2-deficient ES cells or isogenic wild-type cells. Two days after cell injection, treatment with a compound of Formula (I), (IA) or (II) is initiated. For three consecutive days, two intraperitoneal doses of a compound of Formula (I), (IA) or (II) or vehicle is administered, 6 h apart, each at a dosage of 15 mg/kg per animal. This treatment is stopped for 5 days and then re-initiated for another three consecutive days. Growth of tumors is monitored from a minimum volume of 0.2 cm3.

The in vitro assays disclosed herein, along with other known in vitro assays (Farmer et al., Nature 2005; 434:913-7: clonogenic survival assay finding that a BRCA2-deficient cell line V-C8, compared with the BRCA2 wild type control exhibited sensitivity to AG14361, a PARP-1 inhibitor, (Ki = 5nm) and NU1025, a moderately potent PARP-1 inhibitor (Ki = 50nM); & Mcabe et al., Cancer Biology & Therapy 2005; 4:9, 934-36; clonogenic survival assay using CAPAN-1 cells maintained in DMEM supplemented with FCS (20% v/v), glutamine and antibiotics showing sensitivity to PARP inhibition using KU0058684) demonstrates the activity of PARP-inhibitors in a static test situation. Additionally, animal models have been used to analyze the relationship between in vitro tests and parameters of in vivo efficacy. By way of example only, Farmer et al., has shown in vivo efficacy in blocking the growth of BRCA2-deficient tumors using KU0058684, a PARP-1 inhibitor. Nature 2005; 434:913-7. This indicates that PARP-1 inhibition is a viable cancer treatment for BRCAI/2 mutation carriers. Furthermore, KU0059436, a PARP-1 inhibitor is currently in Phase I clinical trials for patients with advanced solid tumors. Given this information, compounds of Formula (I), (IA) or (II) which have shown in vitro inhibitory action are likely to show analogous in vivo (mouse and human) efficacy.
