Description

NEW HYDROXYESTER DERIVATIVES, A PROCESS FOR THEIR PREPARATION
AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING THEM
The présent invention relates to new hydroxyester dérivatives, to a process for their préparation and to pharmaceutical compositions containing them.
The compounds of the présent invention are new and hâve very valuable pharmacological characteristics in the field of apoptosis and cancerology.
Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is a physiological process that is crucial for embryonic development and maintenance of tissue hoineostasis.
Apoptotic-type cell death involves morphological changes such as condensation of the nucléus, DNA fragmentation and also biochemical phenomena such as the activation of caspases which cause damage to key structural components of the cell, so inducing its disassembly and death. Régulation of the process of apoptosis is complex and involves the activation or repression of several intracellular signalling pathways (Cory S. et al.. Nature Review Cancer 2002, 2, 647-656).
Deregulation of apoptosis is invotved in certain pathologies. Increased apoptosis is associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer''s disease and ischaemia. Conversely, déficits in the implémentation of apoptosis play a signîfïcant rôle în the development of cancers and their chemoresîstance, in auto-immune diseases. inflammatory diseases and viral infections. Accordingly, absence of apoptosis is one of the phenotypic signatures of cancer (Hanahan D. et al., Cell 2000, 100. 57-70).
The anti-apoptotic proteins of the Bcl-2 family are associated with numerous pathologies. The involvement of proteins ofthe Bcl-2 family is described in numerous types of cancer, such as colon cancer, breast cancer, small-cell long cancer, non-small-cell lung cancer, bladder cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, chronic lymphoid ieukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma, acute myeloid leukemia, pancreatic cancer, etc. Overexpression of the antiapoptotic proteins of the Bcl-2 family is involved in tumorigenesis. in résistance to chemotherapy and in the clinical prognosis of patients affected by cancer. Notably,
ORIGINAL
-2Mcl-l, an anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family member, is overexpressed in various types of cancer (Beroukhim R. ei al.. Nature 2010, 899-905). There is, therefore, a therapeutic need for compounds that inhibit the anti-apoptotic activity of the proteins of the Bcl-2 family.
In addition to being new, the compounds of the présent invention hâve pro-apoptotic 5 properties makîng it possible to use them in pathologies involving a defect in apoptosis, such as, for example, in the treatment of cancer and of immune and auto-immune diseases.

-50PHARMACOLOGICAL STUDY
EXAMPLE A: Inhibition of Mcl-1 bv the fluorescence polarisation technique
The relative binding potency of each compound was determined via Fluorescence Polarisation (FP). The method utilised a Fluorescein labelled ligand (Fluorescein-PAla5 Ahx-A-REIGAQLRRMADDLNAQY-OH; mw 2,765) which binds to the Mcl-1 protein (such that Mcl-1 corresponds to the UniProtKB*' primary accession number: Q07820) leading to an increased anisotropy measured in milli-polarisation (mP) units using a reader. The addition of a compound which binds competitively to the same site as the ligand will resuit in a greater proportion of unbound ligand in the System indicated by a decrease in 10 mP units.
An 11 point serial dilution of each compound was prepared in DMSO and 2 μΙ transferred into fiat bottomed, low binding, 384-well plate (final DMSO concentration 5 %). 38 μΙ of buffer (lOmM 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-l-piperazineethanesulfonic acid [HEPES], 150 mM NaCl, 0.05 % Tween 20, pH 7.4), containing the Fluorescein labelled ligand (final 15 concentration 1 nM) and Mcl-1 protein (final concentration 5 nM) was then added.
Assay plates were incubated -2 hours at room température before FP was measured on a Biomek Synergy2 reader (Ex. 528 nm, Em. 640 nm, Cut off 510 nm) and mP units calculated. The binding of increasing doses of test compound was expressed as a percentage réduction in mP compared to a window established between l5 % DMSO only’ 20 and ‘ 100 % inhibition’ Controls. 11 -point dose response curves were plotted with XL-Fit software using a 4-Parameter Logistic Model (Sigmoidal Dose-Response Model) and the inhibitory concentrations that gave a 50 % réduction in mP (IC50) were determined. Results are presented in Table 1 below.
The results show that the compounds of the invention inhibit interaction between the Mcl-1 25 protein and the fluorescent peptide described hereinbefore.

-52EXAMPLE C: Quantification of the cleaved form of PARP in vivo
The ability of the compounds of the invention to induce apoptosis, by measuring cleaved PARP levels, is evaluated in a xenograft model of AMO-l multiple myeloma cells.
I.IO7 AMO-l cells are grafted sub-cutaneously into immunosuppressed mice (SCID strain). 12 to 14 days aller the graft, the animais are treated by intraveinous or oral routes with the various compounds. After treatment, the tumour masses are recovered and lysed, and the cleaved form of PARP is quantified in the tumour lysâtes.
The quantification is carried out using the Meso Scale Discovery (MSD) ELIS A platform test, which specifically assays the cleaved form of PARP. It is expressed in the form of an activation factor corresponding to the ratio between the quantity of cleaved PARP in the treated mice divided by the quantity of cleaved PARP in the control mice.
The results show that the compounds ofthe invention are capable of inducing apoptosis in AMO-l tumour cells in vivo.
EXAMPLE D: Anti-tumour activity in vivo
The anti-tumour activity of the compounds of the invention is evaluated in a xenograft model of AMO-l multiple myeloma cells.
IxlO7 AMO-l cells are grafted sub-cutaneously into immunosuppressed mice (SCID strain).
to 8 days after the graft, when the tumour mass has reached about 150 mm3, the mice are treated with the various compounds in a daily schedule (5-day treatment). The tumour mass is measured twice weekly from the start of treatment.
The results obtained using ΔΤ/C ratio (i.e. qualification parameter of the activity of a product, which is defined as the ratio tumour volume of the treated group / tumour volume of the untreated control group) show that the compounds of the invention induce significant tumour régression during the treatment period.
