Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to novel compounds which
inhibit BTK and their use as medicaments.
2. Background Information
[0002] Members of the protein kinase family of human enzymes play
important regulatory roles in a multitude of distinct signal
transduction processes due to their post-translational modification
of specific proteins via the addition of a phosphate group (Hunter,
Cell, 1987 50, 823-829). Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a member
of the Tec family of tyrosine kinases and plays a critical role in
B cell development, activation and antibody production.
[0003] The contribution of BTK to B cell biology is exemplified in
the X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) immunodeficiency in humans
(reviewed in Lindvall, Immunol Rev 2005, 203, 200-215 that display
attenuated calcium signaling upon BCR engagement, lack mature B
cells in periphery due to block between pro- and pre-B cells stage
and have lower levels of circulating antibodies than normal healthy
subjects. The outcome of recent clinical trials with B cell
depleting anti-CD20 molecules in diseases such as rheumatoid
arthritis (RA) and multiple sclerosis (MS) support the hypothesis
that B cells offer an important intervention node for controlling
autoimmune disorders (Townsend et al. 2010). As such, attenuation
of B cell activation and proliferation via inhibition of BTK may
offer similar therapeutic benefit and is consistent with the
demonstrated resistance of BTK-deficient mice to collagen induced
arthritis (Jansson, 1993, Clin Exp Immunol 94, 459-xxx) and
experimental autoimmune encephalitis (Svensson et al. 2002 and
Mangla et al 2004). Similarly, the clinical efficacy observed with
a neutralizing antibody to the B cell stimulating factor BlyS
supports a role for B cells in the pathophysiology of systemic
lupus erythematosus (SLE) (La Cava 2010). Given the necessity for
BTK for the production of autoantibodies, including anti-DNA
antibodies, in murine models of SLE (Steinberg et al., 1982;
Golding et al., 1983; Scribner et al., 1987; Seldin et al., 1987;
Satterthwaite et al., 1998; Takeshita et al., 1998; Whyburn et.
al., 2003), BTK inhibitors may offer therapeutic benefit to SLE
patients.
[0004] Within myeloid cells, BTK signal transduction is necessary
for the stimulated release of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF
from stimulated monocytes (Horwood, J Exp Med, 2003, 1603-xxx) and
for optimal actin cytoskeletal organization and lacunar bone
resorption in isolated osteoclasts (Danks, 2011, J Bone and Mineral
Research, 26, 182-192). Bone marrow derived mast cells lacking BTK
exhibit impaired activation-induced degranulation and cytokine
release (ref). Given the role of BTK in signal transduction
processes across multiple cell types implicated in the pathogenesis
of autoimmune and allergic disorders, inhibition of BTK activity
may provide clinical benefit in diseases such as RA, MS, SLE,
asthma and allergic disorders.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0005] The invention comprises a novel class of heteroaromatic
compounds and methods for making and using the same. These
compounds are useful for the treatment of autoimmune and allergic
disorders in that they exhibit good inhibitory effect upon BTK.

Definitions
[0039] Terms that are not specifically defined here have the
meanings that are apparent to the skilled man in the light of the
overall disclosure and the context as a whole.
[0040] As used herein, the following definitions apply, unless
stated otherwise:
[0041] The use of the prefix C.sub.x-y, wherein x and y each
represent a natural number, indicates that the chain or ring
structure or combination of chain and ring structure as a whole,
specified and mentioned in direct association, may consist of a
maximum of y and a minimum of x carbon atoms.
[0042] Alkyl denotes monovalent, saturated hydrocarbon chains,
which may be present in both straight-chain (unbranched) and
branched form. If an alkyl is substituted, the substitution may
take place independently of one another, by mono- or
polysubstitution in each case, on all the hydrogen-carrying carbon
atoms.

2,2,3-trimethyl-1-butyl, 3-ethyl-1-pentyl, 1-octyl (n-octyl),
1-nonyl (n-nonyl); 1-decyl (n-decyl) etc.
[0045] By the terms propyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl,
nonyl, decyl etc. without any further definition are meant
saturated hydrocarbon groups with the corresponding number of
carbon atoms, wherein all isomeric forms are included.
[0046] The above definition for alkyl also applies if alkyl is a
part of another (combined) group such as for example
C.sub.x-yalkylamino or C.sub.x-yalkoxy.
[0047] Unlike alkyl, alkenyl consists of at least two carbon atoms,
wherein at least two adjacent carbon atoms are joined together by a
C--C double bond and a carbon atom can only be part of one C--C
double bond. If in an alkyl as hereinbefore defined having at least
two carbon atoms, two hydrogen atoms on adjacent carbon atoms are
formally removed and the free valencies are saturated to form a
second bond, the corresponding alkenyl is formed.
[0048] Alkenyl may optionally be present in the cis or trans or E
or Z orientation with regard to the double bond(s).
[0049] Unlike alkyl, alkynyl consists of at least two carbon atoms,
wherein at least two adjacent carbon atoms are joined together by a
C--C triple bond. If in an alkyl as hereinbefore defined having at
least two carbon atoms, two hydrogen atoms in each case at adjacent
carbon atoms are formally removed and the free valencies are
saturated to form two further bonds, the corresponding alkynyl is
formed.
[0050] Haloalkyl (haloalkenyl, haloalkynyl) is derived from the
previously defined alkyl (alkenyl, alkynyl) by replacing one or
more hydrogen atoms of the hydrocarbon chain independently of one
another by halogen atoms, which may be identical or different. If a
haloalkyl (haloalkenyl, haloalkynyl) is to be further substituted,
the substitutions may take place independently of one another, in
the form of mono- or polysubstitutions in each case, on all the
hydrogen-carrying carbon atoms.
[0051] Examples of haloalkyl (haloalkenyl, haloalkynyl) are
--CF.sub.3, --CHF.sub.2, --CH.sub.2F, --CF.sub.2CF.sub.3,
--CHFCF.sub.3, --CH.sub.2CF.sub.3, --CF.sub.2CH.sub.3,
--CHFCH.sub.3, --CF.sub.2CF.sub.2CF.sub.3,
--CF.sub.2CH.sub.2CH.sub.3, --CF.dbd.CF.sub.2, --CCl.dbd.CH.sub.2,
--CBr.dbd.CH.sub.2, --CHFCH.sub.2CH.sub.3, --CHFCH.sub.2CF.sub.3
etc.
[0052] Halogen relates to fluorine, chlorine, bromine and/or iodine
atoms.
[0053] Cycloalkyl is made up of the subgroups monocyclic
hydrocarbon rings, bicyclic hydrocarbon rings and spiro-hydrocarbon
rings. The systems are saturated. In bicyclic hydrocarbon rings two
rings are joined together so that they have at least two carbon
atoms together.
[0054] If a cycloalkyl is to be substituted, the substitutions may
take place independently of one another, in the form of mono- or
polysubstitutions in each case, on all the hydrogen-carrying carbon
atoms. Cycloalkyl itself may be linked as a substituent to the
molecule via every suitable position of the ring system.
[0055] Examples of cycloalkyl are cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl,
cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cycloheptyl.
[0056] Corresponding groups are an example:
##STR00192##
[0057] Spirocycle is a spiro-hydrocarbon ring one carbon atom
(spiroatom) belongs to two rings together.
[0058] Aryl denotes mono-, bi- or tricyclic carbocycles with at
least one aromatic carbocycle. Preferably, it denotes a monocyclic
group with six carbon atoms (phenyl) or a bicyclic group with nine
or ten carbon atoms (two six-membered rings or one six-membered
ring with a five-membered ring), wherein the second ring may also
be aromatic or, however, may also be saturated or partially
saturated.
[0059] If an aryl is to be substituted, the substitutions may take
place independently of one another, in the form of mono- or
polysubstitutions in each case, on all the hydrogen-carrying carbon
atoms. Aryl itself may be linked as a substituent to the molecule
via every suitable position of the ring system.
[0060] Examples of aryl are phenyl and naphthyl.
[0061] The above definition of aryl also applies if aryl is part of
another (combined) group as for example in arylamino, aryloxy or
arylalkyl.
[0062] Heterocyclyl denotes ring systems, which are derived from
the previously defined cycloalkyl or spirocycle by replacing one or
more of the groups --CH.sub.2-- independently of one another in the
hydrocarbon rings by the groups --O--, --S-- or --NH--, wherein a
total of not more than five heteroatoms may be present, at least
one carbon atom may be present between two oxygen atoms and between
two sulphur atoms or between one oxygen and one sulphur atom and
the ring as a whole must have chemical stability. Heteroatoms may
optionally be present in all the possible oxidation stages
(sulphur.fwdarw.sulphoxide --SO--, sulphone --SO.sub.2--;
nitrogen.fwdarw.N-oxide).
[0063] If a heterocyclyl is substituted, the substitutions may take
place independently of one another, in the form of mono- or
polysubstitutions in each case, on all the hydrogen-carrying carbon
and/or nitrogen atoms. Heterocyclyl itself may be linked as a
substituent to the molecule via every suitable position of the ring
system.
[0064] Examples of heterocyclyl are tetrahydrofuranyl,
tetrahydropyranyl, piperidinyl, piperazinyl, pyrrolidinyl,
morpholinyl, or the following heterocyclic spirocycles
##STR00193##
[0065] Heteroaryl denotes monocyclic heteroaromatic rings or
polycyclic rings with at least one heteroaromatic ring, which
compared with the corresponding aryl or cycloalkyl, instead of one
or more carbon atoms, one or more identical or different
heteroatoms, selected independently of one another from among
nitrogen, sulphur and oxygen, wherein the resulting group must be
chemically stable. The prerequisite for the presence of heteroaryl
is a heteroatom and a heteroaromatic system.
[0066] If a heteroaryl is to be substituted, the substitutions may
take place independently of one another, in the form of mono- or
polysubstitutions in each case, on all the hydrogen-carrying carbon
and/or nitrogen atoms. Heteroaryl itself may be linked as a
substituent to the molecule via every suitable position of the ring
system, both carbon and nitrogen.
[0067] Examples of heteroaryl are, pyridinyl, pyridazinyl,
pyrimidinyl, pyrazinyl, benzoxazolyl, indolyl, isoindolyl,
benzofuranyl, benzimidazolyl, benzothiazolyl, and the like.
[0068] Heteroatoms may optionally be present in all the possible
oxidation stages (sulphur.fwdarw.sulphoxide --SO--, sulphone
--SO.sub.2--; nitrogen.fwdarw.N-oxide).
[0069] Carbocycles include hydrocarbon rings containing from three
to twelve carbon atoms. These carbocycles may be either aromatic
either aromatic or non-aromatic ring systems. The non-aromatic ring
systems may be mono- or polyunsaturated. Preferred carbocycles
include but are not limited to cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl,
cyclopentyl, cyclopentenyl, cyclohexyl, cyclohexenyl,
cycloheptanyl, cycloheptenyl, phenyl, indanyl, indenyl,
benzocyclobutanyl, dihydronaphthyl, tetrahydronaphthyl, naphthyl,
decahydronaphthyl, benzocycloheptanyl and benzocycloheptenyl.
[0070] All cyclic and acyclic systems defined in this section
hereinabove shall be understood to be optionally partially or fully
halogenated where possible and unless otherwise indicated.

invention can be synthesised from the parent compound which
contains a basic or acidic moiety by conventional chemical methods.
Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acid or
base form of these compounds with a sufficient amount of the
appropriate base or acid in water or in an organic diluent like
ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile, or a
mixture thereof.

Description of Biological Properties
BTK Assay
[0233] An HTRF assay (Cisbio KinEASE-TK cat #62TK0PEC) was
performed to quantitate the ability of test compounds to inhibit
BTK mediated phosphorylation of substrate. Assays were assembled in
384 well plates where 6 nM of full-length human His-tagged BTK
(Life Technologies cat # PV3587) and test compound at varying
concentrations were preincubated for 15 minutes at 28.degree. C.
Then, 1 uM of TK substrate-biotin and 30 uM ATP were added and
incubated for an additional 30 minutes at 28.degree. C.
Phospohrylation was detected by adding 62.5 nM Streptavidin-XL665
and TK-Antibody Cryptate diluted 1:100 in HTRF detection buffer
(Cisbio cat #62SDBRDF) and incubated for 60 minutes at RT. The
plate was read on an Envision plate reader and the fluorescence is
measured at 620 nm (cryptate) and 665 nm (XL665). A ratio is
calculated (665/620) and converted to POC relative to control and
blank wells.
Assay Buffer:
[0234] 50 mM HEPES (Invitrogen #15630), 0.01% Brij-35 (sigma
#B4184), 10 mM MgCl2 (Sigma M1028), 1 mM EGTA (Ambion AM9262) and
100 uM sodium orthovanedate (Sigma S6508), 1 mM DTT (Sigma D5545)
and 10 nM supplement enzyme buffer (Cisbio cat#61SEBALB).
[0235] Preferred compounds for the treatment of autoimmune
disorders exhibit selective inhibition of BTK over other kinases
such as EGFR. The compounds described herein show a range of
selectivities against EGFR as measured in cellular assays (BTK
activity measured by CD69 expression in primary CD19.sup.+ cells;
EGFR activity measured by EGFR phosphorylation in A431 cells). See

2.times.10.sup.5/well in RPMI media containing 10% FBS, rested for
1 hour at 37.degree. c. Cells were treated with inhibitor in
duplicates or vehicle control in 1% DMSO final concentration for 1
hour at 37.degree. c., 5% CO.sub.2. Cells were then stimulated with
12.5 ug/ml Goat F(ab').sub.2 anti-human IgD (SouthernBiotech,
Birmingham, Ala.) for 18-24 hours at 37.degree. C., 5% CO.sub.2.
Cells were collected and stained for APC-CD19, clone HIB19 and
PE-CD69, clone FN50 (antibodies purchased from BD Bioscience, San
Jose, Calif.). B cells were analyzed by flow cytometry using a BD
LSRII or BD FACsCanto Flow Cytometer. Viable cells were gated, and
CD69 percentage was determined using FlowJo software.
Inhibition of EGFR Autophosphorylation in A431 Human Epithelial
Cells Stimulated with Epithelial Growth Factor
[0237] A431cells (ATCC # CRL-1555 FZ) are thawed and plated in DMEM
containing 10% FBS in a 384-well tissue culture treated plate at
15,000 cells/well. After incubating for 24 hours at 37.degree. C.,
5% CO.sub.2, the cells are treated with test compound (1% DMSO
final concentration) and incubated for 16 hours at 37.degree. C.,
5% CO.sub.2. EGF (Millipore, 01-107) is added at a final
concentration of 60 ng/mL and incubated for 10 minutes. The medium
is removed, the cells are lysed, and phospho EGFR is measured (Meso
Scale Diagnostics, N31CB-1).
Therapeutic Use
[0238] On the basis of their biological properties the compounds of
formula (I) according to the invention, or their tautomers,
racemates, enantiomers, diastereomers, mixtures thereof and the
salts of all the above-mentioned forms are suitable for treating
autoimmune and allergic disorders in that they exhibit good
inhibitory effect upon BTK.
[0239] Such diseases include for example: rheumatoid arthritis,
systemic lupus erythromatosis, scleroderma, asthma, allergic
rhinitis, allergic eczema, B cell lymphoma, multiple sclerosis,
juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis,
inflammatory bowel disease, graft versus host disease, psoriatic
arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and uveitis.
[0240] The compounds of formula (I) may be used on their own or in
combination with other active substances according to the
invention, optionally also in combination with other
pharmacologically active substances.
[0241] Suitable preparations include for example tablets, capsules,
suppositories, solutions--particularly solutions for injection
(s.c., i.v., i.m.) and infusion--elixirs, emulsions or dispersible
powders. The content of the pharmaceutically active compound(s)
should be in the range from 0.1 to 90 wt.-%, preferably 0.5 to 50
wt.-% of the composition as a whole, i.e. in amounts which are
sufficient to achieve the dosage range specified below. The doses
specified may, if necessary, be given several times a day.
[0242] Suitable tablets may be obtained, for example, by mixing the
active substance(s) with known excipients, for example inert
diluents such as calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate or lactose,
disintegrants such as corn starch or alginic acid, binders such as
starch or gelatine, lubricants such as magnesium stearate or talc
and/or agents for delaying release, such as carboxymethyl
cellulose, cellulose acetate phthalate, or polyvinyl acetate. The
tablets may also comprise several layers.
[0243] Coated tablets may be prepared accordingly by coating cores
produced analogously to the tablets with substances normally used
for tablet coatings, for example collidone or shellac, gum arabic,
talc, titanium dioxide or sugar. To achieve delayed release or
prevent incompatibilities the core may also consist of a number of
layers. Similarly the tablet coating may consist of a number of
layers to achieve delayed release, possibly using the excipients
mentioned above for the tablets.
[0244] Syrups or elixirs containing the active substances or
combinations thereof according to the invention may additionally
contain a sweetener such as saccharine, cyclamate, glycerol or
sugar and a flavour enhancer, e.g. a flavouring such as vanillin or
orange extract. They may also contain suspension adjuvants or
thickeners such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, wetting agents
such as, for example, condensation products of fatty alcohols with
ethylene oxide, or preservatives such as p-hydroxybenzoates.
[0245] Solutions for injection and infusion are prepared in the
usual way, e.g. with the addition of isotonic agents, preservatives
such as p-hydroxybenzoates, or stabilisers such as alkali metal
salts of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, optionally using
emulsifiers and/or dispersants, whilst if water is used as the
diluent, for example, organic solvents may optionally be used as
solvating agents or dissolving aids, and transferred into injection
vials or ampoules or infusion bottles.
[0246] Capsules containing one or more active substances or
combinations of active substances may for example be prepared by
mixing the active substances with inert carriers such as lactose or
sorbitol and packing them into gelatine capsules.
[0247] Suitable suppositories may be made for example by mixing
with carriers provided for this purpose such as neutral fats or
polyethyleneglycol or the derivatives thereof.
[0248] Excipients which may be used include, for example, water,
pharmaceutically acceptable organic solvents such as paraffins
(e.g. petroleum fractions), vegetable oils (e.g. groundnut or
sesame oil), mono- or polyfunctional alcohols (e.g. ethanol or
glycerol), carriers such as e.g. natural mineral powders (e.g.
kaolins, clays, talc, chalk), synthetic mineral powders (e.g.
highly dispersed silicic acid and silicates), sugars (e.g. cane
sugar, lactose and glucose), emulsifiers (e.g. lignin, spent
sulphite liquors, methylcellulose, starch and polyvinylpyrrolidone)
and lubricants (e.g. magnesium stearate, talc, stearic acid and
sodium lauryl sulphate).
[0249] The preparations are administered by the usual methods,
preferably by oral or transdermal route, most preferably by oral
route. For oral administration the tablets may of course contain,
apart from the above-mentioned carriers, additives such as sodium
citrate, calcium carbonate and dicalcium phosphate together with
various additives such as starch, preferably potato starch,
gelatine and the like. Moreover, lubricants such as magnesium
stearate, sodium lauryl sulphate and talc may be used at the same
time for the tabletting process. In the case of aqueous suspensions
the active substances may be combined with various flavour
enhancers or colourings in addition to the excipients mentioned
above.
[0250] For parenteral use, solutions of the active substances with
suitable liquid carriers may be used.
[0251] The dosage for intravenous use is from 1-1000 mg per hour,
preferably between 5 and 500 mg per hour.
[0252] However, it may sometimes be necessary to depart from the
amounts specified, depending on the body weight, the route of
administration, the individual response to the drug, the nature of
its formulation and the time or interval over which the drug is
administered. Thus, in some cases it may be sufficient to use less
than the minimum dose given above, whereas in other cases the upper
limit may have to be exceeded. When administering large amounts it
may be advisable to divide them up into a number of smaller doses
spread over the day.
