The present invention is generally dedicated to the use of compounds for the manufacture of compositions useful to treat cancer.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONIn most of the cancers, mortality is not due to the primary tumor but rather to the derived metastases. This malignant progression which leads to tumor invasion and is clinically defined by the appearance of metastases is the final outcome of the primary loss of cell adhesion and increase of cell motility which together allow invasive cell to leave the initial tumor site and colonize various target tissues.
Metastases are considered as a recurrent feature of uncontrolled malignant progression of cancer. During this process, tumor cells complete their malignant transformation by increasing their migratory capacity. Cancer cells can then disseminate and establish tumor foci in far away sites. Spreading of cancer cells in the organism is the outcome of a series of events called <<metastatic cascade>>: invasion of the tissues around the tumor, venous or lymphatic intravasation, migration and establishment in a distant place of a new colony that escapes from all the defence mechanisms of the organism.
Metastatic invasion, against which there is no efficient therapeutic option available at this time, is by far the major cause of death. Due to the frequency of cancers diagnosed at the metastatic stage and to the therapeutic impasse they represent, the development of molecules that specifically target metastatic invasion is thus a crucial requirement for a major breakthrough in cancer treatments.
The present invention is in keeping with the evidence as published during the last twenty years of a link between changes in RNA alternative splicing and metastatic invasion which has opened to new therapeutic strategies.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONIt has now been found that derivatives of formula (I) as defined in formula (I) hereinafter are able to correct defects of alternative splicing, as illustrated in the experimental data hereinafter, a mechanism closely associated with the invasive progression of metastatic cancers, and on the basis of such activity, the compounds are useful in the treatment of cancer.
The present invention therefore relates to compounds of formula (I) as defined below for use as agents for preventing, inhibiting or treating cancer.
The present invention moreover relates to a method of preventing, inhibiting or treating cancer, which comprises at least one step consisting in administering to a patient suffering therefrom an effective amount of a compound as defined in formula (I) below or one of its pharmaceutically acceptable salts.
The present invention further relates to some particular derivatives as such, as defined below.
The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising at least one of said particular compounds.

The compounds of general formula (I) can be prepared according to scheme 1 below.
As appears in said scheme two routes are available for recovering a compound of formula (I) according to the present invention.
The synthesis is based on a coupling reaction alternatively starting from a halogeno-bicycle of formula (III), wherein X, Y, W, T, U, n′, R′ and R″ are as defined above and X′ is a chlorine atom or a bromine atom or from a chloro-monocycle of formula (V), wherein Z, V, n and R are as defined above and X′ is a chlorine atom or a bromine atom.
According to route (A), the compound of formula (III) is placed in a protic solvent such as tert-butanol. The compound of formula (IV) is then added in a molar ratio ranging from 1 to 1.5 with respect to the compound of formula (III) in presence of an inorganic base, such as Cs2CO3 or K2CO3 in a molar ratio ranging from 1 and 2, in the presence of a diphosphine, such as Xantphos (4,5-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene) or X-Phos (2-Dicyclohexylphosphino-2′,4′,6′-triisopropylbiphenyl) in an amount ranging from 2 mol % to 10 mol % relative to the total amount of compound of formula (III), and in the presence of a catalyst, such as Pd(OAc)2 or Pd2dba3 in an amount ranging from 2 mol % to 10 mol % relative to the total amount of compound of formula (III). The reaction mixture can then be heated at a temperature ranging from 80 to 120° C., for example at 90° C. and stirred for a time ranging form 15 to 25 hours, for example during 20 hours under inert gas and for example argon. The reaction mixture can be concentrated under reduced pressure.
According to route (B) the compound of formula (V) is placed in a protic solvent such as tert-butanol.

Effect of drug compounds on invasion
of MDA-MB231-D3H2LN cells into collagen
Background:
A key step in the generation of tumor metastasis is the invasion of tumor cells into the extracellular matrix, a major component of which is collagen. Therefore, the invasion of tumor cells into collagen in vitro may be indicative of the generation of metastasis in vivo. E. g., MDA-MB231-luc-D3H2LN mouse breast cancer cells display indeed both higher invasion into collagen in vitro and a higher metastatic potential in vivo as compared to MDA-MB231 cells (from which they were derived). Using these MDA-MB231-luc-D3H2LN cells as a model, the aim of the experiment described here is to identify drug compounds that inhibit the invasion of tumor cells into collagen in vitro, therefore potentially inhibiting also the generation of tumor metastasis in vivo.
Assay Principle:
Step 1: Preparation of cells at the bottom of a collagen gel: Cells are suspended in a liquid collagen solution (4° C.), distributed into BSA-coated wells, and then collected at the bottom of the wells by centrifugation. The collagen is then solidified by incubation at 37° C. The BSA coating improves the adhesion of the collagen gel.
Step 2: Pre-treatment with the compounds to be tested: Concentrated drug solutions are then added on top of the collagen, and cells are pre-incubated for 24 h with the drugs at low serum conditions (0.025% FBS).
Step 3: Stimulation of invasion: Medium with 5% FBS is then added in order to stimulate invasion of the cells into the collagen gel.
Step 4: Fixation and staining: Following another 24 h incubation, cells are fixed and nuclei are stained.
Step 5: Analysis: Finally, plates are analyzed using an automated microscope. Fluorescent beads that have been included into the BSA coating serve to detect the bottom of the wells. Pictures of the stained nuclei are taken at the same level (0 μm) as well as 25 μm and 50 μm above.
Note:
In order to detect possible toxic effects, all compounds are tested in parallel in a viability assay. The viability assay is performed in parallel on serum-starved cells (as in the invasion assay) vs. cells under normal culture conditions (10% FBS).

Experimental Procedures:
General considerations: Controls and plate maps:
Invasion assay: Negative control: No drug (just DMSO at equivalent concentration). Positive control: 10 μM Y-27632. To avoid edge effects, only the 60 central wells B2-G11 are used; lines A and H as well as columns 1 and 12 remain free. Each drug is tested at least in triplicate. The positive and negative controls should be tested in double triplicates at different positions on each plate. Typical plate map (−=negative control, +=positive control, 1-16=16 different drug compounds):
Viability assays: No additional controls. The MTS viability assay is based on colorimetric detection of a product generated by the mitochondrial activity of the cells. Each drug is tested at least in duplicate. To detect potential direct interactions with the assay substrate, each drug is also tested in absence of cells (background signals). Typical plate map (controls and drug compounds as in the invasion assay, lines A-B and E-F: with cells, lines C-D and G-H: without cells; each 1 plate with 10% vs. 0.025% FBS):
