CYTOTOXIC DOLAPROINE-DOLAISOLEUINE PEPTIDE DERIVATIVES FOR THE TREATMENT OF CANCER

Description

Field of Invention

[0001] Provided herein are dolaproine-dolaisoleuine peptide analogs, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and such compounds for use in methods of treating cancer.

Background

[0002] Cancer is the second leading cause of human death exceeded only by coronary disease. In the U.S., cancer accounts for nearly 1 in 4 deaths. Worldwide, millions of people die from cancer every year. In the United States alone, as reported by the American Cancer Society, cancer causes the death of well over a half-million people annually, with over 1.5 million new cases diagnosed per year. While deaths from heart disease have been declining significantly, those resulting from cancer generally are on the rise. In the early part of the next century, cancer is predicted to become the leading cause of death unless new medicines are found.

[0003] Worldwide, several cancers stand out as the leading killers. In particular, carcinomas of the lung, prostate, breast, colon, pancreas, ovary, and bladder represent the primary causes of cancer death. With very few exceptions, metastatic cancer is fatal. Moreover, even for those cancer patients who initially survive their primary cancers, common experience has shown that their lives are dramatically altered. Many cancer patients experience strong anxieties driven by the awareness of the potential for recurrence or treatment failure. Many cancer patients experience physical debilitations following treatment. Furthermore, many cancer patients experience a recurrence.

[0004] Promising new cancer therapeutics include the dolastatins and synthetic dolastatin analogs such as auristatins (U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,635,483, 5,780,588, 6,323,315, and 6,884,869; Shnyder et al. (2007) Int. J. Oncol. 31:353-360; Otani, M. et al. Jpn. J. Cancer Res. 2000, 91, 837-844; PCT Intl. Publ. Nos. WO 01/18032 A3, WO 2005/039492, WO 2006/132670, and WO 2009/095447; Fennell, B.J. et al. J. Antimicrob. Chemther. 2003, 51, 833-841). Dolastatins and auristatins have been shown to interfere with microtubule dynamics, thus disrupting cell division (Woyke et al. (2001) Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 45(12):3580-3584), and have anticancer (U.S. Pat. No. 5,663,149) and antifungal activity (Pettit et al. (1998) Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 42:2961-2965). Unfortunately, despite early enthusiasm, dolastatin 10 showed poor results as a single agent in phase II clinical trials (Shnyder (2007), supra). Certain compounds in the auristatins family have shown greater promise as clinical candidates with improved efficacy and pharmacological characteristics over the dolastatins (Pettit et al. (1995) Anti-Cancer Drug Des. 10:529-544; Pettit et al. (1998) Anti-Cancer Drug Des. 13:243-277; Shnyder (2007), supra). Various synthetic analogs of this structural type have been described (U.S. Patent No. 6,569,834; U.S. Pat. No. 6,124,431; and Pettit et al. (2011) J. Nat. Prod. 74:962-968).

[0005] The auristatins have several properties which make them attractive for pharmaceutical development. First, these compounds are extremely potent. Second, their preparation is straightforward because of the peptidic scaffold. Third, they possess good pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles compared to peptides in general, or to other cancer drug classes in particular.

[0006] Despite significant advances, there remains a need for new anticancer therapeutics with desirable pharmaceutical properties.

Detailed Description

[0029] As used herein, the terms "including," "containing," and "comprising" are used in their open, non-limiting sense.

[0030] To provide a more concise description, some of the quantitative expressions given herein are not qualified with the term "about". It is understood that, whether the term "about" is used explicitly or not, every quantity given herein is meant to refer to the actual given value, and it is also meant to refer to the approximation to such given value that would reasonably be inferred based on the ordinary skill in the art, including equivalents and approximations due to the experimental and/or measurement conditions for such given value.

[0031] The term "alkyl," by itself or as part of another term, refers to a saturated C₁-C₁₂ hydrocarbon containing normal, secondary, tertiary or cyclic carbon atoms. Particular alkyl groups are those having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or 1 to 4 carbon atoms.

The term "optionally substituted" means that the specified group is unsubstituted or substituted by one or more substituents. Where the term "substituted" is used to describe a structural system, the substitution is meant to occur at any valency-allowed position on the system.

[0041] Any formula given herein is intended to represent compounds having structures depicted by the structural formula as well as certain variations or forms. In particular, compounds of any formula given herein may have asymmetric centers and therefore exist in different enantiomeric forms. All optical isomers and stereoisomers of the compounds of the general formula, and mixtures thereof, are considered within the scope of the formula. Thus, any formula given herein is intended to represent a racemate, one or more enantiomeric forms, one or more diastereomeric forms, one or more atropisomeric forms, and mixtures thereof. Furthermore, certain structures may exist as geometric isomers (i.e., cis and trans isomers), as tautomers, or as atropisomers. Additionally, any formula given herein is intended to refer also to any one of hydrates, solvates, and amorphous and polymorphic forms of such compounds, and mixtures thereof, even if such forms are not listed explicitly. In some embodiments, the solvent is water and the solvates are hydrates.

[0042] Any formula given herein is also intended to represent unlabeled forms as well as isotopically labeled forms of the compounds. Isotopically labeled compounds have structures depicted by the formulas given herein except that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having a selected atomic mass or mass number. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds described herein include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, fluorine, chlorine, and iodine, such as ²H, ³H, ¹¹C, ¹³C, ¹⁴C, ¹⁵N, ¹⁸O, ¹⁷O , ³¹P, ³²P, ³⁵S, ¹⁸F, ³⁶Cl, and ¹²⁵I, respectively. Such isotopically labeled compounds are useful in metabolic studies (preferably with ¹⁴C), reaction kinetic studies (with, for example ²H or ³H), detection or imaging techniques [such as positron emission tomography (PET) or single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)] including drug or substrate tissue distribution assays, or in radioactive treatment of patients. In particular, an ¹⁸F or ¹¹C labeled compound may be particularly preferred for PET or SPECT studies. Further, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium (i.e., ²H) may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements. Isotopically labeled compounds described herein and prodrugs thereof can generally be prepared by carrying out the procedures disclosed in the schemes or in the examples and preparations described below by substituting a readily available isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent.

[0043] When referring to any formula given herein, the selection of a particular moiety from a list of possible species for a specified variable is not intended to define the same choice of the species for the variable appearing elsewhere. In other words, where a variable appears more than once, the choice of the species from a specified list is independent of the choice of the species for the same variable elsewhere in the formula, unless stated otherwise.

[0044] The nomenclature "C_i-j" with j > i, when applied herein to a class of substituents, is meant to refer to embodiments of any of the compositions, uses, or methods described herein for which each and every one of the number of carbon members, from i to j including i and j, is independently realized. By way of example, the term C_1-3 refers independently to embodiments that have one carbon member (C₁), embodiments that have two carbon members (C₂), and embodiments that have three carbon members (C₃).

[0045] The term C_n-malkyl refers to an aliphatic chain, whether straight or branched, with a total number N of carbon members in the chain that satisfies n ≤ N ≤ m, with m > n.

[0046] Chemical names listed herein were generated using AutoNOM™ software. If there is a discrepancy between a chemical structure and the name listed for that structure, the structure prevails.

[0047] According to the foregoing interpretive considerations on assignments and nomenclature, it is understood that explicit reference herein to a set implies, where chemically meaningful and unless indicated otherwise, independent reference to embodiments of such set, and reference to each and every one of the possible embodiments of subsets of the set referred to explicitly.

Such a combination may serve to increase efficacy, decrease one or more side effects, or decrease the required dose of a disclosed compound.

[0084] Compounds of Formula (I) will now be described by reference to illustrative synthetic schemes for their general preparation below and the specific examples that follow. Artisans will recognize that, to obtain the various compounds herein, starting materials may be suitably selected so that the ultimately desired substituents will be carried through the reaction scheme with or without protection as appropriate to yield the desired product. Alternatively, it may be necessary or desirable to employ, in the place of the ultimately desired substituent, a suitable group that may be carried through the reaction scheme and replaced as appropriate with the desired substituent. In addition, one of skill in the art will recognize that protecting groups may be used to protect certain functional groups (amino, carboxy, or side chain groups) from reaction conditions, and that such groups are removed under standard conditions when appropriate. Each of the reactions depicted in Scheme A is preferably run at a temperature from about room temperature to the reflux temperature of the organic solvent used. Unless otherwise specified, the variables are as defined above in reference to Formula (I).

[0085] Referring to Scheme A, the preparation of compounds of Formula (I) begins with a protected acid form of dolaisoleuine (Dil) labeled (A) (see Pettit et al. (1994) J. Org. Chem. 59:1796-1800). Compound (A) is depicted with a tert-butyl ester protecting group, but one of skill in the art may select an appropriate replacement. Coupling with a nitrogen-protected valine or isoleucine derivative (B), where PG is a suitable amino protecting group such as a Boc (t-butoxycarbonyl) or fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) group, is effected under standard peptide coupling conditions. For example, reactions are run in the presence of diethyl cyanophosphonate (DEPC), PyBrOP, PyBOP, BOP, diisopropylcarbodiimide (DIC), dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDCI), 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt), 1-hydroxy-7-aza-benzotriazole (HOAt), HBTU (O-benzotriazol-1-yl-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate), HATU (O-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate), and the like, or a combination thereof. Reactions are typically run in the presence of a tertiary amine base, such as diisopropylethylamine. Suitable solvents include dichloromethane, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethyl acetate and the like. The amino protecting group on resultant dipeptide (C) is removed by deprotection under suitable conditions. For example, where PG is a Boc group, compound (C) is treated with trifluoroacetic acid to form free amine (D). Where PG is an Fmoc group, compound (C) is treated with piperidine or diethylamine to yield compound (D). Compound (D) is then coupled to amino acid derivative (E), in protected form if necessary, under peptide coupling conditions as described above, to generate tripeptide (F). Treatment with acid removes the carboxy protecting group to provide free acid (G).

[0086] Referring to Scheme B, the amino-protected dolaproine (Dap) designated as (H) (see Pettit et al. (1994) J. Org. Chem. 59:6287-6295) is coupled with amine (J) (which is prepared using methods known to one in the art) under peptide coupling conditions as described above. Resulting dipeptide (K) is deprotected as discussed for Scheme A to provide compound (L).

[0087] Referring to Scheme C, acid (G) and amine (L) are coupled under peptide coupling conditions as discussed above to provide compounds of Formula (I). Where the result of the reaction is a protected form of Formula (I), suitable deprotection conditions are employed to give the target compound.

In vitro Cytotoxicity Experiments

[0334] The in vitro efficacy of the compounds was measured by evaluating their cytotoxic activity on various cancer cell lines. This assay was conducted in clear tissue-culture treated 96-well plates. The cell lines used were PC3 (human prostate carcinoma), HCC-1954 (human mammary ductal carcinoma), and HCT15 (human colorectal adenocarcinoma, Pgp-expressing). Cells were seeded at approximately 1,000-1,500 cells per well in 50 µL of growth media (RPMI-1640 + 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum) and incubated overnight at 37 °C with 5% CO₂ to allow them to attach. The next day, 50 µL of a 2x stock of vehicle control (DMSO) or compounds at varying concentrations was added to each well in triplicate. In addition, control wells with no cells or untreated cells alone were used. The plates were incubated in the humidified tissue culture incubator with 5% CO₂ at 37 °C for 4 to 6 days after addition of compounds to measure cytotoxicity. After 4 to 6 days, 20 µL of PrestoBlue™ Cell Viability Reagent (Life Technologies #A13261) was added per well. Plates were incubated at 37 °C for 1 to 2 h. Fluorescence was recorded at 540 ex/590 em using the Biotek Synergy™ H4 plate reader. Representative data is graphed as percent survival compared to untreated control wells. Data for compounds tested in this assay are graphed as percent survival compared to untreated control wells, as shown in Figures 9-30.

Determination of Tubulin Polymerization

[0335] The inhibition of tubulin polymerization by the compounds described herein was evaluated on bovine brain tubulin. To evaluate the activity of compounds, tubulin was seeded at approximately 400 µg per well in 100 µL of general tubulin buffer, and then treated with 10 µM final concentration of compound in duplicate at the initiation of the assay. Tubulin polymerization assays were usually carried out at 37 °C for 60 min after the addition of test compounds. Tubulin polymerization was determined by absorbance spectroscopy using the optical density value at 340 nm. To assess the amount of polymerized tubulin, the optical density value at 340 nm was obtained each minute after the addition of test compounds. For analysis, the extent of tubulin polymerization by the compound-treated tubulin was compared to that of the control, which was buffer-treated tubulin. In particular, tubulin inhibition studies were performed using HTS-Tubulin Polymerization Assay Kit (Cytoskeleton Inc.; Catalog # BK004P), using the following sample protocol:

1. Pre-warm the spectrophotometer and 96-well plates to 37 °C for 30 min prior to starting the assay. A warm plate is essential for high polymerization activity and reproducible results.

2. Enter all plate reader parameters (Absorbance at 340 nm, 37 °C, one read each minute) so that the spectrophotometer is ready for use. Once the tubulin is aliquoted into the 37 °C wells, the reading must begin immediately.

3. Warm 500 µL of general tubulin buffer to room temperature. Warm buffer is needed for tubulin ligand dilutions.

4. Paclitaxel is included as a control. Use 10 µL of Paclitaxel per well, which brings the final concentration to 10 µM final.

5. Make cold assay buffer: general tubulin buffer, 1 mM GTP, 10% glycerol.

6. Resuspend 4mgs of tubulin with 1 mL of cold assay buffer to bring the final protein concentration of 4 mg/mL. Place the tubes on ice and allow 3 min for the complete resuspension of the protein.

7. Prepare selected compound at 10X concentration in assay buffer.

8. Pipette 10 µL of the 10X concentrated compound into the required number of wells of the pre-warmed plate. Incubate the plate for 2 min at 37 °C.

9. Pipette 10 µL of assay buffer only into two control wells (buffer-treated tubulin).

10. Pipette 100 µL of tubulin into the required number of wells (two wells should be the zero compound controls, which are buffer-treated).

11. Immediately place the plate into the spectrophotometer at 37 °C and start recording the optical density at 340 nm each minute. Increasing optical density values at 340 nm equate to increasing tubulin polymerization.

Determination of In Vivo Efficacy of Test Compounds: Efficacy evaluation in subcutaneously established human bladder cancer cell line SW780 implanted in ICR SCID mice

[0337] For animal in vivo studies, the test compounds are diluted with 20 mM Histidine, 5% Sucrose, pH 6 with 15% DMSO. Male ICR SCID mice (Taconic Farm, Hudson, NY) are housed in standard rodent micro isolator cages. Environment controls for the animal rooms are set to maintain a temperature between 20-24 °C, a relative humidity between 30% to 70%, and an approximate 12 h light/12 h dark cycle. Food and water are provided ad libitum. After 72 h of acclimatization, the mice are implanted with SW780 human bladder cancer cells (2 x 10⁶ cells/mouse), suspended in 50% complete cultrex (Trevigen, Inc.) mixed with PBS (Gibco), and the tumor growth rate is monitored. When the average tumor volume reaches ∼200 mm³, tumors are size-matched and mice are randomized to treatment groups (n = 8 or 10). The tumor-bearing mice are treated i.v. with Vehicle or test compound at 2 or 4 mg/kg (mpk) on a QW dosing schedule for 3 weeks. Tumor volume is assessed twice weekly using caliper measurement.
