[0009]Pharmaceutical compositions are often formulated with a crystalline solid of the active ingredient (API). The specific crystalline form of the API can have significant effects on properties such as stability, dissolution rate and bioavailability. Instability and poor solubility characteristics can limit the ability to formulate a composition with adequate shelf life or to effectively deliver a desired amount of drug over a given dosing timeframe. One strategy used to achieve the desired physical parameters is to identify the most stable polymorphic form of the API and to define the crystallization processes that would consistently produce the stable crystalline polymorph and avoid producing alternate solid WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 forms, mixtures of polymorphs, hydrates or solvates that can compromise the stability and performance of the composition. id="p-10" id="p-10" id="p-10" id="p-10" id="p-10" id="p-10"

[0121]The term R or the term R’, appearing by itself and without a number designation, unless otherwise defined, refers to a moiety chosen from hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl, heteroalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl and heterocycloalkyl, any of which may be optionally substituted. Such R and R’ groups should be understood to be optionally substituted as defined herein. Whether an R group has a number designation or not, every R group, including R, R’ and Rn where n=(l, 2, 3, .. .n), every substituent, and every term should be understood to be independent of every other in terms of selection from a group. Should any variable, substituent, or term (e.g. aryl, heterocycle, R, etc.) occur more than one time in a formula or generic structure, its definition at each occurrence is independent of the definition at every other occurrence. Those of skill in the art will further recognize that certain groups may be attached to a parent molecule or may occupy a position in a chain of elements from either end as written. For example, an unsymmetrical group such as - C(O)N(R)- may be attached to the parent moiety at either the carbon or the nitrogen. id="p-122" id="p-122" id="p-122" id="p-122" id="p-122" id="p-122"
[0122]Asymmetric centers exist in the compounds disclosed herein. These centers are designated by the symbols "R" or "S," depending on the configuration of substituents around the chiral carbon atom. It should be understood that the invention encompasses all stereochemical isomeric forms, including diastereomeric, enantiomeric, and epimeric forms, as well as d- isomers and 1-isomers, and mixtures thereof. Individual stereoisomers of compounds can be prepared synthetically from commercially available starting materials which contain chiral centers or by preparation of mixtures of enantiomeric products followed by separation such as conversion to a mixture of diastereomers followed by separation or recrystallization, chromatographic techniques, direct separation of enantiomers on chiral chromatographic columns, or any other appropriate method known in the art. Starting compounds of particular stereochemistry are either commercially available or can be made and resolved by techniques known in the art. Additionally, the compounds disclosed herein may exist as geometric isomers. The present invention includes all cis, -21- WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 trans, syn, anti, entgegen (E), and zusammen (Z) isomers as well as the appropriate mixtures thereof. Additionally, compounds may exist as tautomers; all tautomeric isomers are provided by this invention. Additionally, the compounds disclosed herein can exist in unsolvated as well as solvated forms with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, and the like.

In either case, the treatment regimen will provide beneficial effects of the drug combination in treating the conditions or disorders described herein. id="p-126" id="p-126" id="p-126" id="p-126" id="p-126" id="p-126"
[0126] "p38 MAP Kinase inhibitor " is used herein to refer to a compound that exhibitsan IC50 with respect to p38 MAP Kinase activity of no more than about 100 pM and more typically not more than about 50 pM, as measured in the p38 MAP enzyme assays described generally herein. IC50 is that concentration of inhibitor which reduces the activity of an WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 enzyme (e.g., p38 MAP Kinase) to half-maximal level. Certain compounds disclosed herein have been discovered to exhibit inhibition against p38 MAP Kinase. In some embodiments, the compounds will exhibit an IC50 with respect to p38 MAP Kinase of no more than about nM. In some embodiments, the compounds will exhibit an IC50 with respect to p38 MAP Kinase of no more than about 1 pM. In some embodiments, the compounds will exhibit an IC50 with respect to p38 MAP Kinase of about 1 pM to about 50 pM. In certain embodiments, compounds will exhibit an IC50 with respect to p38 MAP Kinase of no more than about 10 pM; in further embodiments, compounds will exhibit an IC50 with respect to p38 MAP Kinase of no more than about 5 pM; in yet further embodiments, compounds will exhibit an IC50 with respect to p38 MAP Kinase of not more than about 1 pM; in yet further embodiments, compounds will exhibit an IC50 with respect to p38 MAP Kinase of not more than about 300 nM, as measured in the p38 MAP Kinase assay described herein. id="p-127" id="p-127" id="p-127" id="p-127" id="p-127" id="p-127"
[0127]The phrase "therapeutically effective" is intended to qualify the amount of active ingredients used in the treatment of a disease or disorder or on the effecting of a clinical endpoint. id="p-128" id="p-128" id="p-128" id="p-128" id="p-128" id="p-128"
[0128]As used herein, the term "therapeutic " or "therapeutic agent" or "pharmaceutically active agent" means an agent utilized to treat, combat, ameliorate, prevent or improve an unwanted condition or disease of a patient. In part, embodiments of the present invention are directed to the treatment of p38 MAP Kinase -mediated diseases. id="p-129" id="p-129" id="p-129" id="p-129" id="p-129" id="p-129"
[0129]A "therapeutically effective amount " or "effective amount " of a composition is a predetermined amount calculated to achieve the desired effect, i.e., to inhibit, block, or reverse the activation, migration, or proliferation of cells. The activity contemplated by the present methods includes both medical therapeutic and/or prophylactic treatment, as appropriate. The specific dose of a compound administered according to this invention to obtain therapeutic and/or prophylactic effects will, of course, be determined by the particular circumstances surrounding the case, including, for example, the compound administered, the route of administration, and the condition being treated. The compounds are effective over a wide dosage range and, for example, dosages per day will normally fall within the range of from 0.001 to 10 mg/kg, more usually in the range of from 0.01 to 5 mg/kg. However, it will be understood that the effective amount administered will be determined by the WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 physician in the light of the relevant circumstances including the condition to be treated, the choice of compound to be administered, and the chosen route of administration, and therefore the above dosage ranges are not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. A therapeutically effective amount of compound of this invention is typically an amount such that when it is administered in a physiologically tolerable excipient composition, it is sufficient to achieve an effective systemic concentration or local concentration in the tissue. id="p-130" id="p-130" id="p-130" id="p-130" id="p-130" id="p-130"
[0130]The term "therapeutically acceptable " refers to those compounds, and a derivative thereof, which are suitable for use in contact with the tissues of patients without undue toxicity, irritation, and allergic response, are commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio, and are effective for their intended use. id="p-131" id="p-131" id="p-131" id="p-131" id="p-131" id="p-131"
[0131]The terms "treat," "treated," "treating", or "treatment" as used herein refers to both therapeutic treatment and prophylactic or preventative measures, wherein the object is to prevent or slow down (lessen) an undesired physiological condition, disorder or disease, or to obtain beneficial or desired clinical results. For the purposes of this invention, beneficial or desired clinical results include, but are not limited to, alleviation of symptoms; diminishment of the extent of the condition, disorder or disease; stabilization (i.e., not worsening) of the state of the condition, disorder or disease; delay in onset or slowing of the progression of the condition, disorder or disease; amelioration of the condition, disorder or disease state; and remission (whether partial or total, whether induction of or maintenance of), whether detectable or undetectable, or enhancement or improvement of the condition, disorder or disease. Treatment includes eliciting a clinically significant response without excessive levels of side effects. Treatment also includes prolonging survival as compared to expected survival if not receiving treatment. Treatment may also be preemptive in nature, i.e., it may include prevention of disease. Prevention of a disease may involve complete protection from disease, for example as in the case of prevention of infection with a pathogen, or may involve prevention of disease progression. For example, prevention of a disease may not mean complete foreclosure of any effect related to the diseases at any level, but instead may mean prevention of the symptoms of a disease to a clinically significant or detectable level. Prevention of diseases may also mean prevention of progression of a disease to a later stage of the disease and prolonging disease-free survival as compared to -24- WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 disease-free survival if not receiving treatment and prolonging disease-free survival as compared to disease-free survival if not receiving treatment. id="p-132" id="p-132" id="p-132" id="p-132" id="p-132" id="p-132"
[0132]"Administering" when used in conjunction with a therapeutic means to administer a therapeutic directly into or onto a target tissue or to administer a therapeutic to a patient whereby the therapeutic positively impacts the tissue to which it is targeted. Thus, as used herein, the term "administering", when used in conjunction with a compound of embodiments herein, can include, but is not limited to, providing the compound into or onto the target tissue; providing the compound systemically to a patient by, e.g., intravenous injection whereby the therapeutic reaches the target tissue; providing the compound in the form of the encoding sequence thereof to the target tissue (e.g., by so-called gene-therapy techniques). "Administering" a composition may be accomplished by injection, topically, orally, or by any of these methods in combination with other known techniques. id="p-133" id="p-133" id="p-133" id="p-133" id="p-133" id="p-133"
[0133]The term "patient" is generally synonymous with the term "subject " and includes all mammals including humans. Examples of patients include humans, livestock such as cows, goats, sheep, pigs, and rabbits, and companion animals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, and horses. Preferably, the patient is a human. id="p-134" id="p-134" id="p-134" id="p-134" id="p-134" id="p-134"
[0134]The terms "excipient " and "pharmaceutically acceptable excipient " as used herein are intended to be generally synonymous, and is used interchangeably with, the terms "carrier, " "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, " "diluent," "pharmaceutically acceptable diluent." id="p-135" id="p-135" id="p-135" id="p-135" id="p-135" id="p-135"
[0135]The term "prodrug" refers to a compound that is made more active in vivo. Certain compounds disclosed herein may also exist as prodrugs, as described in Hydrolysis in Drug and Prodrug Metabolism: Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Enzymology (Testa, Bernard and Mayer, Joachim M. Wiley-VHCA, Zurich, Switzerland 2003). Prodrugs of the compounds described herein are structurally modified forms of the compound that readily undergo chemical changes under physiological conditions to provide the compound. Additionally, prodrugs can be converted to the compound by chemical or biochemical methods in an ex vivo environment. For example, prodrugs can be slowly converted to a compound when placed in a transdermal patch reservoir with a suitable enzyme or chemical WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 reagent. Prodrugs are often useful because, in some situations, they may be easier to administer than the compound, or parent drug. They may, for instance, be bioavailable by oral administration whereas the parent drug is not. The prodrug may also have improved solubility in pharmaceutical compositions over the parent drug. A wide variety of prodrug derivatives are known in the art, such as those that rely on hydrolytic cleavage or oxidative activation of the prodrug. An example, without limitation, of a prodrug would be a compound which is administered as an ester (the "prodrug"), but then is metabolically hydrolyzed to the carboxylic acid, the active entity. Additional examples include peptidyl derivatives of a compound. id="p-136" id="p-136" id="p-136" id="p-136" id="p-136" id="p-136"

[0139]Certain compounds and crystalline forms of compounds disclosed herein may possess useful p38 MAP Kinase inhibiting activity, and may be used in the treatment or prophylaxis of a disease or condition in which p38 MAP Kinase plays an active role. Thus, embodiments also provide pharmaceutical compositions comprising one or more compounds WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 disclosed herein together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, as well as methods of making and using the compounds and compositions.

[0142]Conventional techniques for the preparation/isolation of individual enantiomers include chiral synthesis from a suitable enantioenriched or optically pure precursors or resolution of the racemate using, for example, chiral high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Alternatively, the racemate (or a racemic precursor) may be reacted with a suitable optically active compound, for example, an alcohol, or, in the case where the compound contains an acidic or basic moiety, an acid or base such as tartaric acid or 1- phenylethylamine. The resulting di astereomeric mixture may be separated by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization and one or both of the diastereoisomers converted to the corresponding pure enantiomer(s) by means well known to one skilled in the art. Chiral compounds of embodiments herein (and chiral precursors thereof) may be obtained in enantiomerically-enriched form using chromatography, typically HPLC, on an asymmetric resin with a mobile phase consisting of a hydrocarbon, typically heptane or hexane, containing from 0 to 50% isopropanol, typically from 2 to 20%, and from 0 to 5% of an alkylamine, typically 0.1 % di ethylamine. Concentration of the eluate affords the enriched mixture. Stereoisomer conglomerates may be separated by conventional techniques WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 known to those skilled in the art. See, e.g., "Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds" by Ernest L. Eliel (Wiley, New York, 1994). id="p-143" id="p-143" id="p-143" id="p-143" id="p-143" id="p-143"
[0143]Atropisomers are stereoisomers resulting from hindered rotation about single bonds where the steric strain barrier to rotation is high enough to allow for the isolation of the conformers. Oki (Oki, M; Topics in Stereochemistry 1983, 1) defined atropisomers as conformers that interconvert with a half-life of more than 1000 seconds at a given temperature. The scope of embodiments herein as described and claimed encompasses the racemic forms of the compounds as well as the individual atropisomers (an atropisomer "substantially free" of its corresponding atropisomer) and stereoisomer-enriched mixtures, i.e. mixtures of atropisomers. id="p-144" id="p-144" id="p-144" id="p-144" id="p-144" id="p-144"
[0144]Separation of atropisomers is possibly by chiral resolution methods such as selective crystallization. In an atropo-enantioselective or atroposelective synthesis one atropisomer is formed at the expense of the other. Atroposelective synthesis may be carried out by use of chiral auxiliaries like a Corey-Bakshi-Shibata (CBS) catalyst (asymmetric catalyst derived from proline) in the total synthesis of knipholone or by approaches based on thermodynamic equilibration when an isomerization reaction favors one atropisomer over the other. id="p-145" id="p-145" id="p-145" id="p-145" id="p-145" id="p-145"
[0145]The term "atropisomerism " refers to a type of isomerism resulting from hindered rotation around a single bond due to steric strain of the substituents. This phenomenon creates stereoisomers which display axial chirality. id="p-146" id="p-146" id="p-146" id="p-146" id="p-146" id="p-146"
[0146]The following scheme illustrates "atropisomerism " with reference to specific pyridinone-pyridine compounds of the invention: WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 id="p-147" id="p-147" id="p-147" id="p-147" id="p-147" id="p-147"
[0147]The bond between the B and C rings of the title compounds is hindered and does not allow for facile rotation. The steric strain barrier to rotation is sufficiently high such that individual conformers can be isolated. The compounds of the invention may also exist as atropisomers, i.e., chiral rotational isomers. The invention encompasses racemates, resolved atropisomers, and mixtures thereof. Atropisomers may be separated via supercritical fluid chromatography using a mobile phase of carbon dioxide and ethanol/methanol. id="p-148" id="p-148" id="p-148" id="p-148" id="p-148" id="p-148"
[0148]Atropisomers are generally stable but can often be equilibrated thermally. Atropisomers will have the same but opposite optical rotation. Each atropisomers may have different properties when bound to an enzyme or receptor with one isomer often being more potent than the other. Atropisomers are frequently used as pharmaceutical agents. Known examples include Vancomycin and derivatives. id="p-149" id="p-149" id="p-149" id="p-149" id="p-149" id="p-149"
[0149]The configuration of atropisomers can be described using the nomenclature (A/)- and (P)- to describe the relative position of substituents as described in Bringmann, G. et. al., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2005, 44, 5384 and references cited therein. Structures are designated as drawn but it is understood that either (P)- or (M)- isomers may be desirable and the methods described would be useful for the interconversion of either (P)- or (M)- stereoisomers. id="p-150" id="p-150" id="p-150" id="p-150" id="p-150" id="p-150"
[0150]The term "interconversion " or "conformational interconversion " refers to any change between the atropisomers of this disclosure, including but not limited to equilibration.

[0227]Gels for topical or transdermal administration may comprise, generally, a mixture of volatile solvents, nonvolatile solvents, and water. In certain embodiments, the volatile solvent component of the buffered solvent system may include lower (C1-C6) alkyl alcohols, lower alkyl glycols and lower glycol polymers. In further embodiments, the volatile solvent is ethanol. The volatile solvent component is thought to act as a penetration enhancer, while also producing a cooling effect on the skin as it evaporates. The nonvolatile solvent portion of the buffered solvent system is selected from lower alkylene glycols and WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 lower glycol polymers. In certain embodiments, propylene glycol is used. The nonvolatile solvent slows the evaporation of the volatile solvent and reduces the vapor pressure of the buffered solvent system. The amount of this nonvolatile solvent component, as with the volatile solvent, is determined by the pharmaceutical compound or drug being used. When too little of the nonvolatile solvent is in the system, the pharmaceutical compound may crystallize due to evaporation of volatile solvent, while an excess may result in a lack of bioavailability due to poor release of drug from solvent mixture. The buffer component of the buffered solvent system may be selected from any buffer commonly used in the art; in certain embodiments, water is used. A common ratio of ingredients is about 20% of the nonvolatile solvent, about 40% of the volatile solvent, and about 40% water. There are several optional ingredients which can be added to the topical composition. These include, but are not limited to, chelators and gelling agents. Appropriate gelling agents can include, but are not limited to, semisynthetic cellulose derivatives (such as hydroxypropylmethylcellulose) and synthetic polymers, and cosmetic agents. id="p-228" id="p-228" id="p-228" id="p-228" id="p-228" id="p-228"
[0228]Lotions include those suitable for application to the skin or eye. An eye lotion may comprise a sterile aqueous solution optionally containing a bactericide and may be prepared by methods similar to those for the preparation of drops.

[0229]Creams, ointments or pastes are semi-solid pharmaceutical compositions of the active ingredient for external application. They may be made by mixing the active ingredient in finely-divided or powdered form, alone or in solution or suspension in an aqueous or non- aqueous fluid, with the aid of suitable machinery, with a greasy or non-greasy base. The base may comprise hydrocarbons such as hard, soft or liquid paraffin, glycerol, beeswax, a metallic soap; a mucilage; an oil of natural origin such as almond, corn, arachis, castor or olive oil; wool fat or its derivatives or a fatty acid such as steric or oleic acid together with an alcohol such as propylene glycol or a macrogel. The pharmaceutical composition may incorporate any suitable surface active agent such as an anionic, cationic or non-ionic surfactant such as a sorbitan ester or a polyoxyethylene derivative thereof. Suspending WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 agents such as natural gums, cellulose derivatives or inorganic materials such as silicaceous silicas, and other ingredients such as lanolin, may also be included. id="p-230" id="p-230" id="p-230" id="p-230" id="p-230" id="p-230"
[0230]Drops may comprise sterile aqueous or oily solutions or suspensions and may be prepared by dissolving the active ingredient in a suitable aqueous solution of a bactericidal and/or fungicidal agent and/or any other suitable preservative, and, in certain embodiments, including a surface active agent. The resulting solution may then be clarified by filtration, transferred to a suitable container which is then sealed and sterilized by autoclaving or maintaining at 98-100°C for half an hour.

For example, addition of a polar solvent to the post-interconversion mixture may precipitate an amount of interconverted product. Certain ratios of polar solvent to the interconversion solvent may afford higher precipitation levels of interconverted product. id="p-361" id="p-361" id="p-361" id="p-361" id="p-361" id="p-361"
[0361]For example, Compound 49b may be interconverted using ethylene glycol and addition of pure water to the post-interconversion mixture comprising ethylene glycol to an about 75% v/v (based on starting solution) allows for precipitation of at least 75-85% of the interconversion product. id="p-362" id="p-362" id="p-362" id="p-362" id="p-362" id="p-362"
[0362]In another example, when Compound 49b is interconverted in NMP, addition of pure water to the post-interconversion mixture comprising NMP allows for precipitation of about at least 70% of interconverted product. id="p-363" id="p-363" id="p-363" id="p-363" id="p-363" id="p-363"
[0363]Compounds interconverted in this invention are equilibrated with no or relatively small production of impurities and no or relatively small losses of mass balance. For example, the destructive melt decomposition onset temperature is ca. 240 °C - 300 °C based on TGA and DSC for exemplary Compound 49b. Dry solids based interconversion temperature is ca. 170 °C - 208 °C based on TGA and DSC for exemplary Compound 49b. However, liquid based interconversion temperature (or TonS et of interconversion) is -113 °C for exemplary Compound 49b in ethylene glycol. For exemplary Compound 49b, the gap between dry solid interconversion temperature and destructive melt decomposition temperature is ca. 20 °C, while the gap between liquid based interconversion temperature and destructive melt decomposition temperature is 125 °C in ethylene glycol. This increase in the gap between dry solid interconversion temperature and destructive melt decomposition onset temperature and to liquid based interconversion temperature and destructive melt decomposition onset temperature is unexpected. Additionally, interconversion temperature is about 138 °C in NMP, which affords a gap between interconversion and destructive decomposition temperature of about 67 °C. This is another example of an increase in the workable temperature gap relative to the dry solid based interconversion temperature.

[0364]This disclosure outlines a method to significantly increase recovery of atropisomers with a negative optical rotation through recycling of waste atropisomers with a positive optical rotation with no modification to the original synthesis outlined in Scheme or 2. Such recycling would greatly increase the cumulative maximum recovery of atropisomers with a negative optical rotation with relatively few unit operations.

[0365]Representative procedures for the preparation of compounds of this disclosure are outlined in Schemes 1 and 2. The substituted pyridine starting material can be purchased or prepared using methods known in the art with a representative procedure provided as an intermediate. Scheme 1 highlights the synthesis of the fully elaborated l,4’-bipyridin-2- ones. The synthesis of pyridinone 1c can be accomplished by reaction of acetal la and pyridine lb in a solvent such as dioxane. Alkylation of the phenol of 1c with the desired heteroaryl substituent (R3) gives alkylated Id. Pyridinone Id may be converted to the title compound via one of three routes depending on the R2 and X-substituents. For instance, if R2 is methyl, reaction of Id with a vinyl tin reagent in the presence of a palladium catalyst provides methyl ketone li. Halogenation of li using A-chlorosuccinimide (or N- bromosuccinimide if the corresponding bromo is desired) in a solvent such as isopropanol provides Ij. In situ enamine formation by reaction of Ij with MA-di methyl form am ide dimethyl acetal provides an intermediate, which is then reacted with 2-hydroxy-2- methylpropionamidine in a solvent such as DMF to give pyridinone 1g. Alternatively, if X is N Id may be carboxylated by treating the halide with carbon monoxide in the presence of a palladium catalyst in ethanol to give ester le. Hydrolysis of the ester of le with lithium hydroxide in water followed by treating the intermediate carboxylic acid with CDI, and subsequently with methoxymethylamine and an amine base such as diisopropylethylamine under Weinreb conditions gives Ih. Reaction of the Weinreb amide Ih with the desired RGrinard reagent in a solvent such as THF provides li. Ketone li is then converted to Ij and then the final compound 1g, as indicated above. Another option to set the pyridine or pyrimidine D-ring is to react Id with the desired boronic acid under Suzuki conditions using an appropriate palladium catalyst to give the coupled intermediate which is then halogenated using NCS or NBS to provide If. Addition of methyl magnesium bromide to If in a solvent such as THF provides the title compound 1g. Resulting equilibrated mixtures of -122- WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 atropisomers can be resolved by supercritical fluid chromatography with a mobile phase of carbon dioxide and ethanol. Individual atropisomers may then conformationally interconverted by dissolution in a solvent such as NMP or ethylene glycol and heating to the appropriate internal temperature for interconversion. Product is recovered by addition of water to the post-interconversion solution and precipitation followed by resolved by supercritical fluid chromatography with a mobile phase of carbon dioxide and ethanol.

[0366]The synthesis of the desired compounds wherein the benzyl substituent R3 is added in the last step is shown in Scheme 2. Pyridinone 2c can be accomplished by reaction of acetal 2a and pyridine 2b in a solvent such as dioxane as described in Scheme 1. Protection of the phenol of 2c with para-methoxybenzyl bromide gives benzylated 2d.
WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 Reaction of 2d with a vinyl tin reagent in the presence of a palladium catalyst provides methyl ketone 2e. Halogenation of le using 7V-chlorosuccinimide (or 7V-bromosuccinimide if the corresponding bromo is desired) in a solvent such as isopropanol provides 2f. In situ enamine formation by reaction of 2f with A Ar-di methyl form am ide dimethyl acetal provides an intermediate, which is then reacted with 2-hydroxy-2-methylpropionamidine in a solvent such as DMF to give pyrimidinone 2g. Deprotection of the benzyl group by treating 2g with an acid such as TFA or HC1 provides 2h. Alkylation of phenol 2h with the desired benzyl halide substituent (R3CH2Br or R3CH2C1) provides the desired pyridinones 2i. Resulting equilibrated mixtures of atropisomers can be resolved by supercritical fluid chromatography with a mobile phase of carbon dioxide and ethanol. Individual atropisomers may then conformationally interconverted by dissolution in a solvent such as NMP or ethylene glycol and heating to the appropriate internal temperature for interconversion. Product is recovered by addition of water to the post-interconversion solution and precipitation then resolved by supercritical fluid chromatography with a mobile phase of carbon dioxide and ethanol.

[0393]A summary of the impurities and related substances observed in drug substance batches is presented in Table 1. Batch 4, Batch 5, Batch 6, and Batch 7 are all clinical batches and have no impurities nor related substances at a level higher than that tested in the toxicology studies.

[0394]Some method differences exist between the methods used for Batch (Toxicology) and the GMP batches. For Batch 1, purity is assessed using a development non-validated laboratory UPLC method and the chiral purity test uses SFC (%, area). These SFC chiral and UPLC purity test methods were routinely used for early development batches. For the GMP batches, impurities and related substances and chiral purity tests both utilize HPLC methods with phase appropriate method validation. Relative retention times (RRTs) presented in the Table 1 below are from the HPLC method unless otherwise noted.

[0396]Inorganic Impurities: Potential inorganic impurities include heavy metals, palladium from coupling reaction catalysts used in the chemical synthesis, and drying and filtering agents utilized in the manufacturing process. Heavy metals are controlled by the use of standard manufacturing equipment in the manufacturing process and the heavy metals test included in the drug substance specification. Palladium carry-over in the drug substance WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 manufacturing process is controlled during the multiple isolation procedures within the manufacturing process. The proposed palladium specification (not more than 50 ppm) is based on the permissible daily exposure for orally administered drug products as recommended in the USP chapter on limits for elemental impurities. Drying and filtering agent carry-over is controlled by subsequent filtration steps to remove the agents and the residue on ignition test included in the drug substance specification. Data presented in Table confirm that all potential inorganic impurities are well controlled and below the specified limit.

[0402]Crystals of an appropriate size were obtained by slow evaporation of acetonitrile at room temperature. A single, needle-like crystal was mounted on a MiTeGen™ cryo-loop with the central axis of the needle off-set to the axis of rotation. Preliminary analysis and -138- WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 data collection were performed at a temperature of 100 K using Copper Ka radiation (1.54184 A) with a Bruker-Nonius Kappa APEX II Duo™ diffractometer equipped with an IpS Cu source and an Oxford Cryostream™ low temperature device. id="p-403" id="p-403" id="p-403" id="p-403" id="p-403" id="p-403"
[0403]The total exposure time for data collection was 67.77 hours. The frames were integrated with the Bruker SAINT software package (Reference: Bruker Analytical X-Ray, Madison, WI, 2015) using a narrow-frame algorithm. The integration of the data using a triclinic unit cell yielded a total of 11397 reflections to a maximum 9 angle of 66.98° (0.A resolution), of which 11397 were independent (average redundancy 1.000, completeness = 99.4%, Rint = 4.58%, Rsig = 4.38%) and 9621 (84.42%) were greater than 2o(F2). The final cell constants of a = 7.8581(16) A, b = 9.7289(19) A, c = 17.619(4) A, a = 79.27(3)°, p = 81.35(3)°, y = 69.05(3)°, volume = 1230.8(5) A3, are based upon the refinement of the XYZ-centroids of 8394 reflections above 20 0(1) with 10.26° < 29 < 136.1°. Data were corrected for absorption effects using the Multi-Scan method (SADABS) (Reference: Bruker Analytical X-Ray, Madison, WI, 2014).

[0404]The structure was determined and refined using the Bruker SHELXTL Software Package (Reference: Sheldrick, G.M. (2008). Acta Cryst. A64, 112-122)., using the space group P 1, with Z = 2 for the formula unit, C25.25H22.38C1F2N5.12O3. The final anisotropic full-matrix least-squares refinement on F2 with 836 variables converged at RI = 4.90%, for the observed data and wR2 = 13.21% for all data. The goodness-of-fit was 1.048. The largest peak in the final difference electron density synthesis was 0.354 e-/A3 and the largest hole was -0.227 e-/A3 with an RMS deviation of 0.051 e-/A3.

[0405]The unit cell contains two crystallographically independent molecules of C25H22N5O3F2CI and 0.25 molecules of acetonitrile. All crystals evaluated were twinned by 180° rotation around the a-axis. The crystal showed a twin ratio of 0.75:0.25. Both C25H22N5O3F2CI molecules show the same rotamer. However, one of them is slightly disordered in the ring-C(CH3)2(OH) area. The ratio of the two different orientations is approximately 85:15. The OH-hydrogen atom of the lesser part was not included in the refinement. Full matrix least-squares refinements were carried out by minimizing w(F0 2- WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 Fc 2)2. The non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically to convergence. Hydrogen atoms with full occupancy were located from difference-Fourier-syntheses and refined, while the hydrogen atoms on the disordered parts and the acetonitrile molecule were calculated on idealized positions and treated using an appropriate riding model as well as atomic displacement parameters constrained to the ones of the bonding atom.

[0407]The solubility of Compound 49a was assessed in 12 solvents to support the solvent selection for the subsequent crystal-form screening experiments. The solubility was visually estimated at room temperature (RT; ~23°C) by dosing small aliquots of solvent into -164- WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 a fixed amount of solid (~10 mg) until the dissolution point or a maximum volume of 1.mL was reached. Samples that contained undissolved solids at RT were heated to 40°C for h, and the dissolution was assessed visually. Compound 49a exhibits high solubility (> 1mg/mL) in DCM, DMSO, and THF; moderate solubility in MeCN, MeOH, EtOAc, and IPA:water (9:1); and low solubility (< 10 mg/mL) in five other solvents assessed at RT. Results are shown in Table 11.

[0408]The crystal-form screening study involved a total of 48 neat and binary solvent systems which addressed the moderate solubility of the input material and provided a diverse set of polarities, dielectric constants, dipole moments, and hydrogen-bond donor/acceptor attributes. Water-containing solvents with a variety of water activities (a*)were also included to probe for the formation of hydrates. Temperatures ranging between 40°C to -20°C. id="p-409" id="p-409" id="p-409" id="p-409" id="p-409" id="p-409"
[0409]The screening studies were comprised of the following crystallization modes: • Temperature-cycled ripening of API slurries between 5-40°C for four days (TC)• Rapid cooling clarified saturated solutions from 40 to -20°C and holding at -20°C for three days (RC)• Slow evaporation of clarified solutions at RT over 14 days.

[0411]The crystalline form of the Compound 49a has been characterized relative to the absolute stereochemical configuration of the spatial arrangement of the atoms using single crystal X-ray diffraction. A detailed description of structure determination by X-ray diffraction is provided in Stout & Jensen, X-Ray Structure Determination: A Practical Guide, Macmillan Co., New York (1968), Chapter 3, which is herein incorporated by reference. Alternatively, the unique spatial arrangements of atoms in three dimensions within the crystalline lattice may be characterized by X-ray powder diffraction analysis. A WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 detailed description of X-ray powder diffraction is provided in Cullity, B.D. Elements of X- ray Diffraction. Addison-Wesley, (1978) ISBN 0-201-01174-3 Chapter 14), which is herein incorporated by reference. XRPD data consists of experimentally determined values of the two-theta position, the intensity values of multiple crystallographic reflections, also known as Bragg reflections, and their peak shape. The XRPD data may be analyzed computational, including by the method of Rietveld refinement. A detailed description of Rietveld refinement of X-ray powder diffraction data is provided in Pecharsky, Vitalij K.; Zavalij, Peter Y. (2009) Fundamentals of powder diffraction and structural characterization of materials (2nd ed.). New York: Springer. ISBN 978-0-387-09579-0. OCLC 314182615, which is herein incorporated by reference. id="p-412" id="p-412" id="p-412" id="p-412" id="p-412" id="p-412"
[0412]XRPD data may be collected at various temperatures or pressures in order to facilitate Rietveld refinement. The experimental XRPD data including 2-theta values, d- spacing, Bragg reflections and intensity values may be compared to a simulated XRPD pattern derived from the single crystal structure determination which represents an idealized pure powder, using a computational method such as described in Macrae, Clare F., et al. "Mercury 4.0: from visualization to analysis, design and prediction. " Journal of Applied Crystallography vol. 53, 226-235. 1 Feb. 2020, doi:10.1107/S1600576719014092. id="p-413" id="p-413" id="p-413" id="p-413" id="p-413" id="p-413"
[0413]One of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that an X-ray powder diffraction pattern may be obtained with a measurement error that is dependent upon the measurement conditions employed in the data collection. It is generally accepted that the peak shape, intensity values and two-theta positions derived from an X-ray powder diffraction pattern can fluctuate depending upon the type of instrument used, the measurement conditions and the method of computational analysis performed. It should be further understood that that the two-theta values and their relative intensities may also vary and accordingly, the exact order of intensity values should not be taken into account. id="p-414" id="p-414" id="p-414" id="p-414" id="p-414" id="p-414"
[0414]Additionally, the experimental error for diffraction angle measurements for a conventional X-ray powder diffraction pattern is typically about 5% or less. Assessment of the extent of measurement error should be taken into account when describing the position of the two-theta diffraction peaks. Consequently, it is to be understood that the crystal forms described in this invention are not limited to the crystal forms that provide X-ray powder WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 diffraction patterns completely identical to the X-ray powder diffraction patterns depicted in the accompanying Figures disclosed herein. Any crystal forms that provide X-ray powder diffraction patterns substantially identical to those disclosed in the accompanying Figures fall within the scope of the present invention. The ability to ascertain substantial identities of X-ray diffraction patterns is within the purview of one of ordinary skill in the art. Likewise, it is to be understood that any crystal forms that provide differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and/or thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) substantially identical to those disclosed in the accompanying Figures fall within the scope of the present invention. The ability to ascertain substantial identities of these patterns is within the purview of one of ordinary skill in the art. id="p-415" id="p-415" id="p-415" id="p-415" id="p-415" id="p-415"

[0424]Approximately 0.5 mL was transferred to a 2 mL vial and heated to 60 °C, filtered through a 0.2 pm syringe filter and the filtrate cooled to 5 °C. No solids were observed. Water (60 pL) was added dropwise with stirring and solids were observed. The solids were isolated by filtration, air-dried and analyzed by DSC showing no racemate present. MeOH/5% water (20 mL) was added and the slurry was heated to 60 °C with stirring for 30 minutes. The slurry was filtered through a 0.2 pm syringe filter into a clean bottle, naturally cooled to RT, and water (6 mL) was added in 500 pL aliquots so that the filtrate remained cloudy. The filtrate was seeded and stirred at RT for 30 minutes. An aliquot of the slurry was sampled, filtered, air-dried for 15 minutes and analyzed by DSC showing no racemate present. The slurry was isolated by filtration using Whatman #1 paper and the mother liquor was recycled to wash the slurry bottle and added to the filter. The cake was air-dried for one hour and dried in a vacuum oven at 50 °C with slow N2 bleed for 16 hours. Yield: 3.210 g (65%). id="p-425" id="p-425" id="p-425" id="p-425" id="p-425" id="p-425"

[0429]A study was conducted to compare the release, solubility and availability for absorption (bioaccessibility) of formulated 50 mg strength tablet (consisting of 12.5 wt% crystalline Form A of Compound 49a, 71 wt% silicified microcrystalline cellulose, 10 wt% mannitol, 5 wt% crospovidone, 0.75 wt% hydrophilic fumed silica, and 0.75 wt% magnesium stearate) under fasted and fed state conditions during transit through the dynamic, computer-controlled model of the stomach and small intestine (tiny-TIM). The findings from these experiments aid in characterization of the formulation with regard to its bioaccessibility profile under both conditions. id="p-430" id="p-430" id="p-430" id="p-430" id="p-430" id="p-430"
[0430]Test System: The study was performed in the TNO dynamic, multi- compartmental in vitro system of the stomach and small intestine (tiny-TIM). The tiny-TIM system consists of a gastric compartment and one small intestinal compartment (Figure 8). This compartment is composed of two glass units with a flexible silicone inner wall enclosing the luminal material. The space between the inner and outer walls is filled with water. Peristaltic mixing of the chyme is the result of alternate compression and relaxation of the flexible inner wall. The compartments are connected by peristaltic valve pumps that WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 successively open and close, allowing the chyme to transit over time through the compartments. This way, oral dosage forms/API ’s are exposed to locally changing and physiological relevant conditions in the stomach and of the small intestine for tiny-TIM. The tiny-TIM system mimics the intraluminal pH, enzyme activity, bile salt concentrations, peristaltic movements, and gastrointestinal transit of the contents. The set-points for gastrointestinal simulation are controlled and monitored by specific computer programs. Released and dissolved drug molecules are removed from the intestinal lumen by semipermeable membrane units connected to the small intestinal compartment. This allows the assessment of the so-called bioaccessible fraction, i.e. the fraction of the drug which is available for small intestinal absorption. id="p-431" id="p-431" id="p-431" id="p-431" id="p-431" id="p-431"
[0431]For simulation of the fasted state condition, a glass of water (240 mL) was administered to the tiny-TIM system. For simulation of the fed state condition, a High Fat Meal (HFM) was used as recommended by the FDA for clinical studies. This meal contains approximately 50 energy% fat, 20 energy% protein and 30 energy% in the form of carbohydrates. The meal is composed of eggs, bacon, toast bread, potatoes, milk, butter and margarine. The meals were prepared as one batch, divided in portions of 150 g and stored at <-18 °C. Per tiny-TIM run, one portion of the meal was used. id="p-432" id="p-432" id="p-432" id="p-432" id="p-432" id="p-432"
[0432]The experiments in tiny-TIM were performed under simulation of the average physiological conditions in the gastrointestinal tract as described for humans in the fasted and fed state. These conditions included especially the dynamics of gastric emptying and pH decline, intestinal transit times, housekeeper wave, the gastric and the intestinal pH values (Table 16), and the composition and activity of the secretion products. The digested and soluble (low-molecular) compounds were removed continuously from the intestinal compartment of the model via a special membrane system. Prior to the performance of each experiment the secretion fluids (e.g. gastric juice with enzymes, electrolytes, bile, and pancreatic juice) were freshly prepared, the pH electrodes calibrated, and semipermeable membrane (hollow fiber) units installed. The housekeeper wave (HKW) was simulated after minutes (fasted state) and 180 minutes (fed state) by transferring residual material from the gastric compartment to the intestinal compartment.

[0433]Filtration of released and dissolved/solubilized drug molecules from the intestinal lumen via a semi-permeable membrane unit (Fresenius plasmaFlux® Pl dry) allowed the assessment of the so-called bio-accessible fraction, i.e. the fraction of the drug which is available for small intestinal absorption. The analysis of these samples generated a bioaccessibility profile over time. Filtrate fractions from the intestinal compartment were collected in 30 minute intervals (0-30, 30-60, 60-90, 90-120, 120-150, 150-180, 180-210, 210-240, 240-270, 270-300, 300-330, and 330-360 min). The collected volume per time period was measured and sub-samples were taken, instantly diluted in 50 % Acetonitrile in Milli-q water and stored at 2-10 °C, protected from light, until analysis. id="p-434" id="p-434" id="p-434" id="p-434" id="p-434" id="p-434"
[0434]Lumen samples from the intestinal compartment were collected to determine the crystalline Form A of Compound 49a concentrations. These samples were collected every minutes (30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210, 240, 270, 300, 3301 and 3601 min). Lumen samples from the intestinal compartment were collected to determine the crystalline Form A of Compound 49a concentrations. These samples were collected every 30 minutes (30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210, 240, 270, 300, 330, and 360 min).

[0435]Upon completion of the experiments the residues of the stomach and the intestinal compartment were collected separately. Any remains of the dosage form were also be collected separately. Each compartment was rinsed twice with 50 % Acetonitrile in Milli- q water. This rinse was pooled with the residue sample of the same compartment, the volume measured and stored at 2-10 °C, protected from light, until analysis. id="p-436" id="p-436" id="p-436" id="p-436" id="p-436" id="p-436"

The total recovery is expressed as % of amount added (equation 2).

The increased crystalline Form A of Compound 49a bioaccessibility under fed state conditions indicates a small positive food effect. The individual results of these experiments expressed as percentage of intake (% of intake) as well as the luminal concentrations in the intestinal compartment are presented in -178- WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 Table 17 and 18.

[0443]The highest levels of (P)-3-chloro-4-((3,5-difluoropyridin-2-yl)methoxy)-2'-(2- (2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)pyrimidin-4-yl)-5',6-dimethyl-2/7-[l,4'-bipyridin]-2-one bioaccessibility (BAmax) were observed in the sample collected between 60-90 minutes for the fasted state and in the sample collected between 90-120 minutes for fed state conditions (Figure 10 and Table 20). The individual BAmax values at the mean Tmax time intervals were as follows: 18.7 and 19.7 % of recovery for the fasted state runs and 18.9 and 19.1 % of recovery for the fed state runs. This means that although the Tmax shifted when testing under fed state conditions, the BAmax values remained similar under fasted and fed state conditions.

[0444]In order to gain insight into the intestinal concentration of (P)-3-chloro-4-((3,5- difluoropyridin-2-yl)methoxy)-2'-(2-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)pyrimidin-4-yl)-5',6-dimethyl- 2/7-[l,4'-bipyridin]-2-one during the tiny-TIM experiments, luminal samples from the intestinal compartment were collected at different time points indicated above. The results of these samples, which provide a snap-shot insight into the total luminal API concentrations, are presented in Figure 11. As expected, the fasted state total luminal concentrations where highest during the first 60 minutes of the experiments, which corresponds with the gastric emptying half-life of 20 minutes for the fasted state. For the fed state, the gastric emptying half-life was 80 minutes, thus generating a luminal concentration profile corresponding with slower gastric emptying for the fed state condition.
Example 9: p38 inhibitory potency and p38/MK2 substrate selectivity id="p-445" id="p-445" id="p-445" id="p-445" id="p-445" id="p-445"
[0445]This study evaluated the invention compound potency in inhibiting the ppathway. p38 activates MK2 and PRAK via phosphorylation, which both then interact with Hsp27, leading to increased inflammation and decreased ability to manage shock. The study measured the amount of the invention compound necessary to inhibit activation of MK2 and PRAK by half. This is a measurement of how effective the invention compound is in helping to lower inflammatory response, which helps treat many diseases, including autoimmune conditions, lymphoma, and rheumatoid arthritis. The novel, MK2 substrate- selective inhibitory mechanism of compounds were evaluated in enzyme assays comparing inhibitor potency in blocking p38/MK2 versus p38/PRAK induced phosphorylation of an HSP-27 derived peptide substrate. The ability of compounds to inhibit activated phospho- p38a was evaluated using a p38a/MK2 and a p38a/PRAK cascade assay format. The kinase activity of p38a was determined by its ability to phosphorylate GST-MK2 or GST-PRAK. Activation of MK2 or PRAK by p38a was quantitated by measuring the phosphorylation of a fluorescently-labeled, MK2/PRAK specific peptide substrate, Hsp27 peptide (FITC- KKKALSRQLSVAA). The phosphorylation of the Hsp27 peptide was quantified using IMAP technology (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale CA). Kinase reactions were carried out in a 384-well plate (Greiner, 781280) in 20 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 10 mM MgC12, 0.01% Triton X-100, 0.01% BSA, 1 mM DTT, and 2% DMSO. The inhibitor concentration was varied between 0.02-30,000 nM, while the Hsp27 peptide substrate and MgATP were held constant at 1 pM and 10 pM, respectively. Activated p38a was added to a final concentration of -180- WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 pM for reactions with nonphosphorylated 1 nM GST-MK2 in the cascade reaction. For the p38a/PRAK cascade, unactivated GST-PRAK was held constant at 10 nM while p38a was added in to a final concentration of 200 pM. Kinase reactions were incubated at room temperature and quenched after 120 minutes by the addition of IMAP Binding Solution. Under these conditions, approximately 20% of the substrate Hsp27 peptide was phosphorylated. Reactions were initiated by the addition of activated p38a except for preincubation experiments, where reactions were initiated by the addition of Hsp27 peptide and MgATP. Preincubation of p38a with inhibitor or p38a with unactivated GST-MK2 or unactivated GST-PRAK and inhibitor were performed at 2X final assay concentrations at room temperature 240 minutes prior to adding ATP and Hsp27 peptide to initiate catalysis. The p38a compound inhibitory potency was quantitated from dose-response IC50 values or Ki values from p38a/MK2 cascade assays while the substrate selectivity was calculated as a ratio of p38a/PRAK:p38a/MK2 IC50 values. Compounds, described hereinabove, evaluated in this assay, are expected to provide a therapeutic benefit in the treatment of p38 MAP Kinase mediated diseases, such as autoimmune diseases and lymphoma. id="p-446" id="p-446" id="p-446" id="p-446" id="p-446" id="p-446"

[0447]The p38 pathway has been shown to be critical for the biosynthesis of a number of proinflammatory cytokines including TNFa, IL-1p and IL-6. Therefore, inhibition of the p38 MAP Kinase pathway will lower the inflammatory response by decreasing biosynthesis of proinflammatory cytokines. This study shows the amount of the invention compound necessary to inhibit biosynthesis of TNFa, IL-6, and IL-1 (proinflammatory cytokines) by half. This is a reflection of the invention compound ’s effectiveness in helping to lower inflammation, an effect which helps treat many diseases, including autoimmune conditions, lymphoma, and rheumatoid arthritis. Evaluation of the potency and efficacy of pinhibitors to block cytokine production was carried out using the human U937 cell line. The U937 human pre-monocytic cell line was obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (Rockville, MD). These cells were differentiated to a monocytic/macrophage phenotype as described by Burnette (Burnette et al, (2009). SD0006: a potent, selective and orally available inhibitor of p38 MAP Kinase, Pharmacology 84(l):42-60). Differentiated U937 cells (human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (hPBMC)) were seeded into 96-well tissue culture plates (200,000 cells/well) in complete media. After 24 hours, the cells were pretreated for 60 minutes in the presence or absence of compound and then stimulated with LPS (0.1 ug/mL) for 4 hours. Culture media were then collected for determination of TNFa, IL-6 or IL-1p levels by ELISA. Cytokine concentrations were extrapolated from recombinant protein standard curves using a four-parameter logistic model and solving for IC50 after iterating to the best least-squares fit. Compounds, described hereinabove, evaluated in this assay, are expected to provide a therapeutic benefit in the treatment of pMAP Kinase mediated diseases, such as lymphoma or inflammation.

[0449]This study shows the effectiveness and selectivity of the invention compound in inhibiting the INK pathway. The INK pathway leads to increased inflammation by boosting production of inflammatory cytokines. Inhibition of this pathway will lead to less inflammation and therefore will treat many diseases, including autoimmune conditions, lymphoma, and rheumatoid arthritis. Classical p38 inhibitors block the phosphorylation of downstream substrates of p38 while elevating activity of parallel pathways such as INK. Evaluation of the impact of different classes of p38 inhibitors on p38 and INK pathway regulation was carried out using phospho-HSP27 and phosphor-JNK for the two pathways, respectively. Evaluation of the potency and efficacy of p38 inhibitors to impact phosphoprotein levels was carried out using the human U937 cell line. The U937 human WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 pre-monocytic cell line was obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (Rockville, MD). These cells were differentiated to a monocytic/macrophage phenotype as described by Burnette (Burnette et al, (2009). SD0006: a potent, selective and orally available inhibitor of p38 MAP Kinase, Pharmacology 84(l):42-60). Suspension cells (approximately 0.5 million per milliliter in T75 cm 2 tissue culture flasks) were grown in RPMI containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) plus antibiotics. On day one, phorbol 12- myristate 13-acetate (PMA, 20ng/mL) was added to the culture flask and the cells were incubated overnight at 37°C/5% CO2. The cells were washed on day two by centrifuging and resuspending them in fresh media without PMA. Adherent cells were harvested on day three by scraping, centrifuging and resuspending them in fresh media at a density of 1 million per milliliter. The PMA-differentiated U937 cells were then distributed into each well of a 96- well flat bottom tissue culture plate (100 mL/well) and the 100,000 cells/well were allowed to recover, incubated, overnight. On the day of the assay fresh media (50mL/well) was added to the plates followed by the addition of compound (25 mL/well, concentration response) for 1 hour. The cells were stimulated with LPS (100 ng/mL) in a final assay volume of 100mL. After 30 minutes, complete lysis buffer (50 mL/well MSD Tris lysis buffer, supplemented with protease inhibitors and phosphatase inhibitors) was added and the plate was placed on a shaker at 4°C for 30 minutes before being stored frozen at -20°C. The cellular lysate (25 mL/well) was thawed and transferred from the assay plate to Meso Scale detection plates for determination of phospho-Hsp27/total Hsp27 or phospho-JNK/total INK. id="p-450" id="p-450" id="p-450" id="p-450" id="p-450" id="p-450"

Compounds (lOmL/well, concentration response) were added and mixed gently for 15-20 seconds using a disposable 96 polypropylene pin tool before the plates were incubated at 37°C/5% CO2 for 1 hour. The HWB was stimulated with LPS (lOOng/mL) in a final assay volume of 200mL. After 3 hours, the plates were spun at 240xg for 5 minutes to pellet the red cells. The plasma was carefully transferred to another 96-well round bottom plate and diluted 2-fold with assay media (DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) plus antibiotics).

[0453]Adherent A549 cells (approximately 5 million per T75 cm 2 tissue culture flask) were grown in F-12K media containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) plus antibiotics. The cells were trypsinized, washed and resuspended at 0.3 million per milliliter. A549 cells were then distributed into each well of a 96-well flat bottom tissue culture plate (lOOmL/well) and the 30,000 cells/well were allowed to recover, incubated, overnight. On the day of the assay fresh media (50mL/well) was added to the plates followed by the addition of compound (25mL/well, concentration response) for 1 hour. The cells were stimulated with LPS (lOOng/mL) in a final assay volume of 100mL. After 3 hours, cultured media (25mL/well) was transferred from the assay plate to a Meso Scale custom coated detection plate for determination of IL-6 levels. The detection plate was incubated at 4°C overnight followed by the addition of a sulfo-tagged antibody cocktail (25mL/well) for 1 hour at room temperature, with vigorous shaking. Read buffer (150mL/well, MSD 4x read buffer diluted 4-fold with dH2O) was added and the plate was read using the Meso Scale Sector Imager 6000. Upon electrical stimulation of the detection plate, co-reactants in the read buffer enhance an electrochemical reaction resulting in the release of energy in the form of light.
WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 This signal was captured by an internal CCD camera and quantitated. Viability of A5cells was determined using an MTT assay. After the 3 hour incubation of cells with LPS and collection of the cultured media, the assay plates were inverted and gently tapped to remove any remaining liquid. MTT (Img/mL solution prepared in assay media) was added (lOOmL/well) and the plates were returned to the 37°C/5% CO2 incubator for 3 hours. The plates were again inverted to remove any liquid and allowed to dry overnight. Isopropanol (lOOmL/well) was added to solubilize the resulting formazan crystals and the plate was read at 570nm/650nm using a Molecular Devices SpectraMax spectrophotometer.

[0454]Rheumatoid arthritis synovial fibroblasts (RAST) are derived from the inflamed synovium of a female RA patient who was undergoing total knee replacement. Synovial tissue was teased away from adjacent cartilage and dispersed into single cells with collagenase. Cells were expanded and banked. RAST cells were further cultured as described by Burnette supra. RAST cells were seeded into 96-well tissue culture plates (5xl04 cells/well) in complete growth medium. After 24 hours, the medium was replaced with fresh growth medium containing 1% FBS. Cells were treated with serial concentrations (30,000-0.01 nM) of compound or dimethyl-sulfoxide (DMSO) vehicle control for 1 hour then stimulated with Ing/mL IL- (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) for 18-20 hours at °C and conditioned media collected. PGE2 levels the in cultured media were quantitated by ELISA (Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI). Compounds, described hereinabove, evaluated in this assay, are expected to provide a therapeutic benefit in the treatment of p38 MAP Kinase mediated diseases, such as lymphoma or rheumatoid arthritis.
Example 15: Substrate selectivity in HUVEC cells id="p-455" id="p-455" id="p-455" id="p-455" id="p-455" id="p-455"
[0455]When a compound was identified from the biochemical characterization step with selective inhibition of p38/MK2, it was next placed into a cell-based assay to verify enzyme to cell translatability. These assays utilize human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) to demonstrate inhibition of Hsp27 phosphorylation (a biomarker of p38/MKactivation) while sparing production of tissue factor (TF), which was linked to another WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 downstream substrate of p38, MSK. In a 96-well format, adherent HUVEC (at 5 passages or less) were treated for 1 hour with serially-diluted compounds, including a non-selective pinhibitor as a reference, or vehicle for controls. For Hsp27 phosphorylation, cells were then stimulated with 500 pg/mL IL-1p for 0.5 hours, media was removed, cells were lysed, and phospho-Hsp27 in the lysate was quantitated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)(Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA). The procedure for TF release was a similar ELISA-based assay (American Diagnostica, Stanford, CT), except that IL-1 stimulation proceeds for 5 hours. The ratio of TF inhibition IC50:HSP27 phosphorylation inhibition ICwas defined as the substrate selectivity index in these cells. Compounds, described hereinabove, evaluated in this assay, are expected to provide a therapeutic benefit in the treatment of p38 MAP Kinase mediated diseases, such as lymphoma and auto-inflammatory disease.

[0456] p38 MAP Kinase inhibitors have been shown to uniquely inhibit canine B cellproliferation and survival. This selective effect on canine B cells may be exploited in therapeutic treatment for canine B cell lymphoma, a fatal disease that impacts >40,0companion animals in the United States. Quantitation of impact of p38 inhibitors on B cell growth is a cellular indicator of efficacy in B cell lymphoma. Compounds, described hereinabove, evaluated in this assay, are expected to provide a therapeutic benefit in the treatment of p38 MAP Kinase mediated diseases, such as lymphoma. These assays utilize beagle dog spleens obtained with protocols approved by the Saint Louis University Animal Care and Use Committee in collaboration with Seventh Wave Laboratories. Leukocytes were isolated from splenocytes by centrifugation through Histopaque 1077. To evaluate effect on proliferation, leukocytes were then cultured for 48 hours in 96-well plates in the presence of vehicle or test compounds. Cells were stimulated with LPS for TLRstimulation, Staphylococcus aureus B cell mitogen, or concanavalin-A T cell mitogen, then proliferation was quantitated with a BRDU incorporation ELISA (Roche, Mannheim, Germany). For apoptosis experiments, leukocytes were plated on 96-well polypropylene U bottom plates and treated with p38 MAP Kinase inhibitors or staurosporine (as a positive control) for up to 24 hours in the absence or presence of actinomycin D or cycloheximide (if needed to increase apoptosis rate). Apoptosis was determined using Caspase-Gio 3/-188- WO 2021/195475 PCT/US2021/024316 luminescent assay (Promega, Madison, WI). In both assays, values generated after incubation with increasing concentrations of the inhibitors were compared to a negative control without inhibitors.

[0457]Rats were fasted eighteen hours prior to oral dosing, and allowed free access to water throughout the experiment. Each treatment group consists of five animals. Compounds were prepared as a suspension in a vehicle consisting of 0.5% methylcellulose, (Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), 0.025% Tween 20 (Sigma Aldrich). The compound or vehicle was administered by oral gavage in a volume of 1 mL. Two vehicle groups were used per experiment to control for intra-experiment variability. EPS (E. coll serotype 0111:B4, Sigma Aldrich) was administered four hours after compound intravenous injection at a dose of 1 mg/kg in 0.5 mL sterile saline (Baxter Healthcare, Deerfield, IL). Blood was collected in serum separator tubes via cardiac puncture ninety minutes after LPS injection, a time point corresponding to maximal TNFa and IL-1p production. After clotting, serum was withdrawn and stored at -20 °C and IL-1p and TNFa levels quantitated by ELISA (Burnette supra). Compounds, described hereinabove, evaluated in this assay, are expected to provide a therapeutic benefit in the treatment of p38 MAP Kinase mediated diseases, such as lymphoma or inflammation.
