Field of Invention
The present invention is directed to inhibitors of tyrosine-protein kinase Kit (c-Kit)
useful in the treatment of diseases or disorders associated with c-Kit. Specifically, the
invention is concerned with compounds and compositions inhibiting c-Kit, methods of treating
diseases or disorders associated with c-Kit, and methods of synthesis of these compounds.
Background of the Invention
The discovery that the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) imatinib inhibits Kit, and its
introduction as a treatment, transformed the clinical management of gastrointestinal stromal
tumors (GIST) (Corless, C.L. et al., Nat. Rev. Cancer. 2011; 11: 865-78). Nonetheless, most
imatinib-treated patients ultimately relapse due to outgrowth of clones with secondary, drugresistant
KIT ons (Heinrich, M.C., et al., J. Clin. Oncol. 2006; 24: 4764-74). Secondary
mutations typically occur in the ATP binding pocket encoded by exons 13 and 14, and the
activation loop (A-loop) encoded by exons 17 and 18. The challenge of treating imatinib
ant GISTs is compounded by mutational heterogeneity, as patients can harbor multiple
different ary mutations in distinct tumor lesions, or even within different regions of the
same lesion (Wardelmann E., et al., Clin. Cancer Res. 2006; 12: 1743-9).
GIST ts with imatinib-resistant tumors are treated with sunitinib, which
potently inhibits KIT ATP-pocket mutants (Heinrich, M.C., et al., J Clin Oncol 2008; 26: 5352-
9). However, nib is ineffective against A-loop mutants, which account for 50% of
imatinib-resistance mutations. This may explain why overall response rates (ORR) are low
(7%) and median progression-free survival (PFS) is short (6.2 months) (Demetri, G.D., et al.,
Lancet 2006; 368: 1329-38). fenib was recently approved as third line therapy, but also
shows only te activity, with ORR of 4.5% and median PFS of 4.8 months (Demetri,
G.D., et al., Lancet 2013; 381: 295-302). The Kit inhibitory ties of regorafenib have not
yet been analyzed extensively, but both clinical and initial preclinical data suggest a limited
spectrum of sensitive KIT mutants (George, S., et al., J. Clin. Oncol. 2012; 30: 2401-7;
1004458711
Serrano-Garcia, C., et al., ASCO Meeting Abstracts 2013; 31(15_suppl): 10510). Thus,
additional agents are needed to overcome resistance mutations in KIT, in particular those in the
The Kit inhibitors imatinib, sunitinib and regorafenib are effective GIST therapies,
though most patients develop resistance to these drugs due to somatic acquisition of polyclonal
secondary Kit mutants. The lack of efficacy of any single agent against the te set of
ial ATP-binding pocket and A-loop secondary mutants makes achievement of prolonged
complete disease control in late stage patients challenging. To address this unmet medical
need, presented herein, are compounds that target a broad range of primary and secondary Kit
mutants, including those within the A-loop.

Definitions
The articles "a" and "an" are used in this disclosure to refer to one or more than one
(i.e., to at least one) of the grammatical object of the article. By way of example, "an element"
means one element or more than one element.
The term r" is used in this disclosure to mean either "and" or "or" unless
indicated otherwise.
The term “optionally tuted” is understood to mean that a given chemical
moiety (e.g., an alkyl group) can (but is not required to) be bonded other substituents (e.g.,
heteroatoms). For instance, an alkyl group that is optionally substituted can be a fully saturated
alkyl chain (i.e., a pure hydrocarbon). Alternatively, the same optionally substituted alkyl
group can have tuents different from hydrogen. For instance, it can, at any point along
the chain be bounded to a halogen atom, a hydroxyl group, or any other substituent described
herein. Thus the term “optionally substituted” means that a given chemical moiety has the
potential to contain other functional groups, but does not necessarily have any further
1004458711
functional groups. Suitable substituents used in the al substitution of the bed
groups include, without limitation, halogen, oxo, -OH, -CN, -COOH, -CH2CN, -O-(C1-C6)
alkyl, (C1-C6) alkyl, (C1-C6) alkoxy, ) haloalkyl, (C1-C6) haloalkoxy, -O-(C2-C6) alkenyl,

alkyl)2. The tuents can lves be optionally substituted. “Optionally substituted” as
used herein also refers to substituted or unsubstituted whose g is described below.
As used herein, the term “substituted” means that the specified group or moiety
bears one or more suitable substituents wherein the substituents may connect to the specified
group or moiety at one or more positions. For example, an aryl substituted with a cycloalkyl
may indicate that the lkyl connects to one atom of the aryl with a bond or by fusing with
the aryl and sharing two or more common atoms.
Unless otherwise specifically defined, the term "aryl" refers to cyclic, aromatic
hydrocarbon groups that have 1 to 3 aromatic rings, including monocyclic or bicyclic groups
such as phenyl, biphenyl or naphthyl. Where containing two aromatic rings (bicyclic, etc.), the
aromatic rings of the aryl group may be joined at a single point (e.g., biphenyl), or fused (e.g.,
naphthyl). The aryl group may be optionally tuted by one or more substituents, e.g., 1 to

other form in terms of chemistry.
Diastereomeric mixtures can be separated into their dual diastereomers on the
basis of their physical chemical differences by methods well known to those skilled in the art,
1004458711
such as, for example, by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization. omers can be
separated by converting the enantiomeric mixture into a diastereomeric mixture by reaction
with an appropriate optically active compound (e.g., chiral auxiliary such as a chiral alcohol or
Mosher's acid chloride), separating the diastereomers and converting (e.g., hydrolyzing) the
individual diastereomers to the corresponding pure enantiomers. Also, some of the compounds
of the invention may be somers (e.g., substituted biaryls) and are ered as part of
this invention. Enantiomers can also be separated by use of a chiral HPLC column.
] It is also possible that the compounds of the invention may exist in different
tautomeric forms, and all such forms are embraced within the scope of the invention. Also, for
example, all keto-enol and imine-enamine forms of the compounds are included in the
invention.
All stereoisomers (for example, geometric isomers, optical isomers and the like) of
the present compounds (including those of the salts, solvates, esters and prodrugs of the
compounds as well as the salts, solvates and esters of the prodrugs), such as those which may
exist due to asymmetric s on various substituents, including enantiomeric forms (which
may exist even in the absence of asymmetric carbons), ric forms, atropisomers, and
diastereomeric forms, are contemplated within the scope of this invention, as are positional
isomers (such as, for example, 4-pyridyl and 3-pyridyl). (For example, if a nd of
a (I) orates a double bond or a fused ring, both the cis- and trans-forms, as well
as mixtures, are embraced within the scope of the invention. Also, for example, all nol
and imine-enamine forms of the compounds are included in the invention.) Individual
stereoisomers of the compounds of the invention may, for example, be substantially free of

Biochemical Assays
Example 2: c-Kit Assay
Generation of Ba/F3 KIT mutant engineered cell lines
KIT cDNAs were synthesized by GenScript and cloned into the pLVX-IRES-Puro
vector (Clontech). Viral particles were produced by transfecting pLVX-IRES-puro vectors
containing KIT mutant genes into HEK293 cells (Invitrogen) using the Trans-Lentiviral ORF
Packaging Kit (Thermo Scientific). 48 hours post-transfection, virus-containing supernatants
were harvested and incubated for another 48-72 hours with parental Ba/F3 cells (DSMZ) in the
presence of 10 ng/mL IL-3 (R&D Systems). Transduced Ba/F3 cells were then selected by IL-
3 withdrawal and puromycin (0.5-1 µg/mL, Invitrogen).
Viability assays
] Cell lines (i.e., EX11DEL, EX11DEL/D816H, EX11DEL/T670I, and
EX11DEL/V654A) were plated into 384 well plates using RPMI 1640 mented with 10%
FBS at densities that produced linear growth and incubated at 37 °C in 5% (v/v) CO2. Cells
were treated with eight trations of compound over a 4-fold dilution (10 µM to 0.61 nM)
and viability was assessed using Cell Titer-Glo assay (Promega) after 72 hours. Data were
plotted as percent viability relative to vehicle-treated cells. Dose-responses curves were
generated and used to ate IC50 values.
Table 2: c-Kit activity of compounds of the invention in the c-Kit assay. ++++
indicates an IC50 of less than about 10 nM, +++ indicates an IC50 between about 10 nM and
about 50 nM, ++ indicates an IC50 between about 50 nM and about 100 nM, and + indicates an
IC50 greater than about 100 nM and less than about 10 µM.
