CROSS-REFERENCES TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims the benefit of priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) to U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 63/356,421, filed Jun. 28, 2022, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

The following discussion is provided to aid the reader in understanding the disclosure and is not admitted to describe or constitute prior art thereto.

AXL is a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) that belongs to the TAM family. AXL regulates important processes such as cell growth, migration, aggregation, and apoptosis. AXL can be activated by a variety of mechanisms including ligand-dependent and ligand-independent mechanisms. Once activated AXL is involved in a variety of signaling pathways including the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK pathway leading to cancer cell proliferation, and also the PI3K/AKT pathway responsible for several pro-survival proteins.

AXL has been shown to be overexpressed in a variety of malignancies. In cancer settings, AXL overexpression is associated with poor patient survival and resistance mechanisms (both targeted and non-targeted).

In view of the research linking AXL inhibition to diseases such as cancer, there is a need in the art for new AXL inhibitors. The present disclosure addresses this need and provides additional advantages over previous AXL inhibitors.

In some embodiments, this disclosure is directed to a method comprising:

    • a) contacting a compound of Formula (A) with a compound of Formula (B) in the presence of a first palladium catalyst to form a compound of Formula (C):

and

    • b) contacting the compound of Formula (C) with a deprotecting agent to form a compound of Formula (D):

wherein X, G1, R1, R1a, and R2 are as defined herein; Q is N, CH, or CR2; PG is a protecting group; and one of Y and Z is Cl, Br, I, or OTf, and the other is a boronate ester.

In another embodiment, this disclosure is directed to a method comprising:

    • a) contacting a compound of Formula (E) with a compound of Formula (B-2) in the presence of a first palladium catalyst to form a compound of Formula (C):

and

    • b) contacting the compound of Formula (C) with a deprotecting agent to form a compound of Formula (D):

wherein X, G1, R1, R1a, and R2 are as defined herein; Q is N, CH, or CR2; PG is a protecting group; and one of Y′ and Z′ is Cl, Br, I, or OTf, and the other is a boronate ester.

Any suitable boronate ester can be utilized. Exemplary boronate esters include, but are not limited to, pinacolborane (Bpin), catecholborane, and N-methyliminodiacetic acid boronate (MIDA boronate). In some embodiments, the boronate ester is a moiety having the formula —B(ORx)2, wherein each RX is H, or C1-C3 alkyl, or two —ORx groups taken with the boron atom to which they are attached form pinacol borane (Bpin). In one embodiment, the boronate ester is Bpin.

The term “protecting group” refers to a moiety of a compound that masks or alters the properties of a functional moiety. The protecting group can be removed so as to restore the functional moiety to its original state. Chemical protecting groups and strategies for protection/deprotection are well known in the art. See also Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry, Peter G. M. Wuts and Theodora W. Greene, 4th Ed., 2006. Protecting groups are often utilized to mask the reactivity of certain functional moieties, to assist in the efficiency of desired chemical reactions, e.g., making and breaking chemical bonds in an ordered and planned fashion. For example, a nitrogen protecting group refers to a protecting group useful for masking nitrogen atoms, e.g., to render amines or nitrogen containing heteroarenes unreactive during intermediate steps. Exemplary nitrogen protecting groups include, but are not limited to, allyloxycarbonyl (Alloc), benzolylcarbonyl (Cbz), benzyl (Bz), allyl (All), 2,2,2-trichloroethoxycarbonyl (Troc), 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxycarbonyl (Teoc), trityl (Tr), tetrahydropyranyl ether (THP), and sulfonyl (e.g., mesyl (Ms), tosyl (Ts), nosyl (Ns), trifulyl (Tf), and phenyl sulfone (—S(O)2Ph)) groups. In some embodiments, the protecting group is phenyl sulfone (—S(O)2Ph), tosyl (Ts), trityl (Tr), 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxymethyl (SEM), or tetrahydropyranyl ether (THP).

A “deprotecting agent” is a chemical reactant that is capable of effecting removal of a protecting group. The deprotecting agent used will depend on, for example, the identity of the protecting group that is to be removed, and the reactivity of other functional groups present on the molecule. Typical deprotecting agents include reducing agents, oxidizing agents, acids, Lewis acids, bases, fluoride reagents, and enzymes. In general, ether protecting groups can be removed under acidic conditions; alkyl protecting groups can be removed under reductive conditions, or by treatment with a Lewis acid; trityl protecting groups can be removed under acidic conditions, or by treatment with a Lewis acid; acyl protecting groups can be removed under reductive conditions, under basic conditions, or by treatment with an enzyme; and benzyl protecting groups can be removed under reductive conditions, or by treatment with a Lewis acid. Exemplary reducing agents include, but are not limited to, hydrogen, metal hydrides (e.g., diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBAL), and lithium aluminum hydride (LAH)), or borohydrides (e.g., sodium borohydride). Exemplary bases include, but are not limited to, ammonia, methylamine, sodium methoxide, metal hydroxides (e.g., LiGH, NaOH, and KOH), and the like. Exemplary acids include, but are not limited to HCl, formic acid, acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, methanesulfonic acid, and the like.

In another embodiment, the protecting group is tetrahydropyranyl ether (THP), trityl (Tr), or 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxymethyl (SEM), and the deprotecting agent is an acid (e.g., trifluoroacetic acid). In some embodiments, the deprotecting agent further comprises a silane (e.g., triethylsilane or trimethylsilane), or an amine (e.g., NH3, or N,N-dimethylethylenediamine).

AXL is expressed in cancer, select immune cells, and stromal cells and has been implicated in the development of resistance/relapse to chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapies, and immunotherapies. Activation of AXL by its ligand, growth arrest specific protein 6 (GAS6), or ligand-independent dimerization facilitates AXL phosphorylation, and initiates signaling cascades that promote cancer cell proliferation, survival, and an immunosuppressive microenvironment. Accordingly, inhibition of AXL is a promising therapeutic strategy to overcome resistance to chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, and/or immunotherapy.

As demonstrated herein, the compounds according to this disclosure potently inhibit AXL. Diseases, disorders, and/or conditions that would benefit from AXL inhibition may include those characterized by overexpression of AXL.

Accordingly, in some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered to a subject in need thereof in an amount effective to inhibit AXL. AXL inhibition may be assessed measuring soluble AXL (sAXL) levels in plasma or AXL expression, or phospho-AXL (pAXL) levels in a peripheral blood sample or a tissue sample (e.g., a tumor sample) obtained from the subject. Activity may be determined, for example, by comparison to a previous sample obtained from the subject (i.e., prior to administration of the AXL inhibitor), or by comparison to a reference value for a control group (e.g., standard of care, a placebo, etc.).

Alternatively or in addition, in some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered to a subject in need thereof in an amount effective to inhibit AXL phosphorylation.

Viral Infections. AXL has been found to promote the infection of a wide range of enveloped viruses, including, for example, coronavirus, poxvirus, retrovirus, flavivirus, arenavirus, filovirus, and alphavirus. In particular, enveloped viruses display phosphatidylserine. AXL's ligand, GAS6 bridges envelope phosphatidylserine to cell surface receptor AXL, thereby facilitating entry of the enveloped virus into the cell. For SARS-CoV-2 in particular, AXL is a co-receptor to ACE2, to which the spike protein of the virus attaches, allowing for subsequent entry into the host cell. Further, AXL signaling suppresses viral-induced type I interferon (IFN) responses, resulting in increased viral replication in infected cells, and decreased anti-viral defenses of neighboring cells. Accordingly, inhibition of AXL is a useful strategy to treat viral infections.

In some embodiments, the compounds according to this disclosure are useful in the treatment of a viral infection. In some embodiments, the viral infection is caused by an enveloped virus. Exemplary viral infections include those caused by a coronavirus, poxvirus, retrovirus, flavivirus, arenavirus, filovirus, or alphavirus.

Administering

In general, the disclosed methods comprise administering a AXL inhibitor described herein, or a composition thereof, in an effective amount to a subject in need thereof. An “effective amount” with reference to a AXL inhibitor of the present disclosure means an amount of the compound that is sufficient to engage the target (by inhibiting or antagonizing the target) at a level that is indicative of the potency of the compound. For AXL, target engagement can be determined by one or more biochemical or cellular assays resulting in an EC50, ED50, EC90, IC50, or similar value which can be used as one assessment of the potency of the compound. Assays for determining target engagement include, but are not limited to, those described in the Examples. The effective amount may be administered as a single quantity or as multiple, smaller quantities (e.g., as one tablet with “x” amount, as two tablets each with “x/2” amount, etc.).

In some embodiments, the disclosed methods comprise administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound described herein to a subject in need thereof. As used herein, the phrase “therapeutically effective amount” with reference to AXL means a dose regimen (i.e., amount and interval) of the compound that provides the specific pharmacological effect for which the compound is administered to a subject in need of such treatment. For prophylactic use, a therapeutically effective amount may be effective to eliminate or reduce the risk, lessen the severity, or delay the onset of the disease, including biochemical, histological and/or behavioral signs or symptoms of the disease. For treatment, a therapeutically effective amount may be effective to reduce, ameliorate, or eliminate one or more signs or symptoms associated with a disease, delay disease progression, prolong survival, decrease the dose of other medication(s) required to treat the disease, or a combination thereof. With respect to cancer specifically, a therapeutically effective amount may, for example, result in the killing of cancer cells, reduce cancer cell counts, reduce tumor burden, reduce tumor volume, eliminate tumors or metastasis, or reduce metastatic spread. A therapeutically effective amount may vary based on, for example, one or more of the following: the age and weight of the subject, the subject's overall health, the stage of the subject's disease, the route of administration, and prior or concomitant treatments.

Administration may comprise one or more (e.g., one, two, or three or more) dosing cycles.

Biological Example Measuring Intracellular Binding of Axl Inhibitors

Axl NanoBRET™ intracellular kinase assay (Promega, N2540) was performed according to manufacturer's recommendation. In brief, HEK-293 cells are transiently transfected with Axl-NanoLuc fusion vector (Promega, NV1071), utilizing Fugene HD transfection reagent (Promega, E2311) a day before experiment following manufacturer's recommendation.

The day of the assay, the cells were collected and resuspended in Opti-MEM media (ThermoFisher, 31985070) at 2e5 cells/mL concentration. Testing compounds were serial diluted and dispensed into a white 384 well polystyrene plate at 200 nL in 100% DMSO. 40 μL of resuspended cells is then added per well for a final condition of 8K cells/well with 0.5% DMSO. After one-hour compound pre-incubation at 37° C. and 5% CO2, cells were further incubated with 0.35 μM K-5 NanoBRET tracer for two-hours at 37° C. and 5% CO2. 20 ml of 3× substrate plus Inhibitor solution was prepared according to kits manual and added to the cells followed by a 30 second pulse centrifugation spin. The plate was then immediately read utilizing an Envision (Perkin Elmer) plate reader. The BRET signal is measured by taking the ratio of the emissions reading at 610 nm and 450 nm. Compound binding is based on the decrease BRET signal caused by the displacement of the K-5 tracer. DMSO treated activity was used as neutral control and normalized to 100% activity, and CEP-40783 control compound at 20 μM which reaches 100% inhibition was used as positive control and normalized to 0% activity. IC50 value of compounds was determined by 4-parameter non-linear regression fitting of percent activity in GraphPad Prism software. Values are reported in Table 1 (Cell Binding).

Measurement of Biochemical Compound Potency of Axl Inhibitors

Purified recombinant human AXL, TYRO3 and MER proteins were purchased from Invitrogen™. 10 nM AXL, 2 nM TYRO3 or MER were incubated with varying concentrations of compounds in 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% BSA, 1 mM DTT and 2% DMSO in a total volume of 20 μl in a 384-well microplate (Corning™ #3640) at RT for 1 h. The AXL, TYRO3 and MER enzymatic reaction was initiated by transferring 10 μl of enzyme and compound mixture into 10 μl of 1.6 μM TK Substrate-biotin (HTRF® KinEASE-TK kit, Cisbio) and 1400 μM ATP pre-incubated in 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% BSA, 1 mM DTT in a 384-well microplate (Corning™ #3640) at RT, giving the final reaction conditions: 5 nM AXL, 1 nM TYRO3 or MER, 800 nM TK Substrate-biotin and 700 μM ATP in 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% BSA, 1 mM DTT and 1% DMSO with varying concentrations of compounds. Following 2 h incubation at RT, the AXL, TYRO3 and MER enzymatic reaction was stopped by transfer of 10 μl of reaction into 10 μl of detection mix (400 nM Streptavidin-XL665, 200-fold dilution TK Antibody-Cryptate and detection buffer, HTRF® KinEASE-TK kit, Cisbio) in a white 384-well microplate (Perkin Elmer, OptiPlate 384). After 1 h incubation at RT, the plate was put into a plate reader (Evision) to read at 665/620 nm (acceptor/donor) for HTRF. The value of the DMSO blank (MIN inhibition=100% activity) was used as a negative control. The positive control was established by adding 5 μl of enzyme and DMSO mixture into 10 μl of detection mix followed by addition of 5 μl of TK Substrate-biotin and ATP mixture (MAX inhibition=0% activity). To calculate the percent activity, Equation 1 was used. Ratio665/620 is the value at a given compound concentration:

% Activity = Ratio 6 6 5 / 6 2 0 - MAX MIN - MAX × 1 0 0 ( 1 )

The concentration of compound that resulted in 50% loss of the enzyme activity (IC50) was calculated by GraphPad Prism using Equation 2 where N is the Hill coefficient:

% Activity = Bottom + Top - Bottom 1 + ( [ I ] IC 50 ) N ( 2 )

Values are reported in Table 1 (Biochemical Potency).

Measurement of Axl Phosphorylation Inhibition

The dose-response assays were performed in S-Bio PrimeSurface® 3D culture: Ultra-low Attachment Plates: 384 well, U bottom (#MS-9384UZ) containing 400 nL of 22 serial 2-fold compound dilutions using Bravo and Echo. ELISA assay was performed on Pierce™ streptavidin coated high capacity 384-well white plates (Thermofisher Cat #15505). The plates were coated overnight at 4° C. with 50 μl/well of biotinlyated phospho-tyrosine mouse mAb (Cell Signaling Technology, 9417s).

HEK293T cells were grown in DMEM containing 10% FBS, 1% Pen/Strep, 1% G-Max. A day before the assay, cells were transiently transfected with 6.8 μg of NanoLuc-tagged AXL plasmid DNA and 8 μg of carrier DNA using FuGENE® HD Transfection Reagent (Promega) according to manufacturer's instructions. On the day of the assay, transfected cells were harvested and resuspended in OptiMEM. 70,000 cells/well were added to the compounds containing assay plates. After a gentle mix and a short spin, the plates were incubated at 37° C. After 1 h, the cells were lysed followed by a brief centrifugation and 30 min of shaking at 300 rpm. Meanwhile, the antibody coated plates were brought to room temperature and then were washed ten times in PBS with 0.05% Tween 20 (ELISA-wash buffer). 50 μl/well of cell lysate was transferred to the ELISA plates and shaken for 2 hours. After washing again with the ELISA wash buffer, the samples were diluted with 25 μl of PBS. The captured NanoLuc tagged p-AXL was detected using Nano-Glo® Luciferase Assay System (Promega) and manufacturer's instruction. The luminescence signal was measured using Envision plate reader.
