Definitions
- the present invention relates to certain substituted (l,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)indolin-l-yl carboxylic acid derivatives of Formula (Ia) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, which exhibit useful pharmacological properties, for example, as agonists of the SlPl receptor.
- pharmaceutical compositions containing compounds of the invention and methods of using the compounds and compositions of the invention in the treatment of disorders associated with the SlPl receptor, for example, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, transplant rejection, multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, ulcerative colitis, type I diabetes, and acne.
- the present invention relates to compounds that are SlPl receptor agonists having at least immunosuppressive, anti-inflammatory, and/or hemostatic activities, e.g. by virtue of modulating leukocyte trafficking, sequestering lymphocytes in secondary lymphoid tissues, and/or enhancing vascular integrity.
- the present application is in part focused on addressing an unmet need for immunosuppressive agents such as may be orally available which have therapeutic efficacy for at least autoimmune diseases and disorders, inflammatory diseases and disorders (e.g., acute and chronic inflammatory conditions), transplant rejection, cancer, and/or conditions that have an underlying defect in vascular integrity or that are associated with angiogenesis such as may be pathologic (e.g., as may occur in inflammation, tumor development, and atherosclerosis) with fewer side effects such as the impairment of immune responses to systemic infection.
- immunosuppressive agents such as may be orally available which have therapeutic efficacy for at least autoimmune diseases and disorders, inflammatory diseases and disorders (e.g., acute and chronic inflammatory conditions), transplant rejection, cancer, and/or conditions that have an underlying defect in vascular integrity or that are associated with angiogenesis such as may be pathologic (e.g., as may occur in inflammation, tumor development, and atherosclerosis) with fewer side effects such as the impairment of immune responses to systemic infection.
- the sphingosine-1 -phosphate (SlP) receptors 1-5 constitute a family of G protein- coupled receptors with a seven-transmembrane domain. These receptors, referred to as SlPl to S1P5 (formerly termed endothelial differentiation gene (EDG) receptor- 1, -5, -3, -6, and -8, respectively; Chun et al., Pharmacological Reviews, 54:265-269, 2002), are activated via binding by sphingosine-1 -phosphate, which is produced by the sphingosine kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation of sphingosine.
- EDG endothelial differentiation gene
- SlPl, S1P4, and S1P5 receptors activate Gi but not Gq, whereas S1P2 and S1P3 receptors activate both Gi and Gq.
- the S1P3 receptor, but not the SlPl receptor responds to an agonist with an increase in intracellular calcium.
- SlP receptor agonists having agonist activity on the SlPl receptor have been shown to rapidly and reversibly induce lymphopenia (also referred to as peripheral lymphocyte lowering (PLL); Hale et al, Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett., 14:3351-3355, 2004).
- lymphocyte sequestration for example in lymph nodes, is thought to be a consequence of concurrent agonist-driven functional antagonism of the SlPl receptor on T-cells (whereby the ability of SlP to mobilize T-cell egress from lymph nodes is reduced) and persistent agonism of the SlPl receptor on lymph node endothelium (such that barrier function opposing transmigration of lymphocytes is increased) (Matloubian et al, Nature, 427:355-360, 2004; Baumruker et al, Expert Opin. Investig. Drugs, 16:283-289, 2007).
- agonism of the SlPl receptor alone is sufficient to achieve lymphocyte sequestration (Sanna et al, J Biol Chem., 279:13839-13848, 2004) and that this occurs without impairment of immune responses to systemic infection (Brinkmann et al, Transplantation, 72:764-769, 2001; Brinkmann et al, Transplant Pr oc, 33:530-531, 2001).
- That agonism of endothelial SlPl receptors has a broader role in promoting vascular integrity is supported by work implicating the SlPl receptor in capillary integrity in mouse skin and lung (Sanna et al, Nat Chem Biol, 2:434-441, 2006).
- Vascular integrity can be compromised by inflammatory processes, for example as may derive from sepsis, major trauma and surgery so as to lead to acute lung injury or respiratory distress syndrome (Johan Groeneveld, Vascul Pharmacol, 39:247-256, 2003).
- An exemplary SlP receptor agonist having agonist activity on the SlPl receptor is
- FTY720 (f ⁇ ngolimod), an immunosuppressive agent currently in clinical trials (Martini et al, Expert Opin. Investig. Drugs, 16:505-518, 2007).
- FTY720 acts as a prodrug which is phosphorylated in vivo; the phosphorylated derivative is an agonist for SlPl, S1P3, S1P4, and S1P5 receptors (but not the S1P2 receptor) (Chiba, Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 108:308- 319, 2005).
- FTY720 has been shown to rapidly and reversibly induce lymphopenia (also referred to as peripheral lymphocyte lowering (PLL); Hale et al, Bioorg. Med. Chem.
- FTY720 elicited an adverse event (i.e., transient asymptomatic bradycardia) due to its agonism of the S1P3 receptor (Budde et al, J. Am. Soc. Nephrol, 13:1073-1083, 2002; Sanna et al, J. Biol Chem., 279:13839-13848, 2004; Ogawa et al, BBRC, 361 :621-628, 2007).
- FTY720 has been reported to have therapeutic efficacy in at least: a rat model for autoimmune myocarditis and a mouse model for acute viral myocarditis (Kiyabayashi et al, J. Cardiovasc.
- Thromb. Vase. Biol, 27:607-613, 2007 a rat model for brain inflammatory reaction following traumatic brain injury (TBI) (Zhang et al, J. Cell MoI. Med., 11:307-314, 2007); and mouse models for graft coronary artery disease and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) (Hwang et al, Circulation, 100:1322- 1329, 1999; Taylor et al, Blood, 110:3480-3488, 2007).
- TBI traumatic brain injury
- GVHD graft coronary artery disease and graft-versus-host disease
- FTY720 may have therapeutic efficacy for /3-amyloid-related inflammatory diseases including Alzheimer's disease (Kaneider et al, FASEB J., 18:309-311, 2004).
- KRP-203 an SlP receptor agonist having agonist activity on the SlPl receptor, has been reported to have therapeutic efficacy in a rat model for autoimmune myocarditis (Ogawa et al, BBRC, 361:621-628, 2007).
- SEW2871 agonism of endothelial SlPl receptors prevents proinflammatory monocyte/endothelial interactions in type I diabetic vascular endothelium (Whetzel et al, Circ.
- FTY720 has been reported to have therapeutic efficacy in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in rats and mice, a model for human multiple sclerosis (Brinkmann et al, J. Biol Chem., 277:21453-21457, 2002; Fujino et al, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 305:70-77, 2003; Webb et al, J. Neuroimmunol, 153: 108-121, 2004; Rausch et al, J. Magn. Reson. Imaging, 20:16-24, 2004; Kataoka et al, Cellular & Molecular Immunology, 2:439-448, 2005; Brinkmann et al, Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 115:84-105, 2007;
- FTY720 has been found to have therapeutic efficacy for multiple sclerosis in clinical trials. In Phase II clinical trials for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis, FTY720 was found to reduce the number of lesions detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical disease activity in patients with multiple sclerosis
- MRI magnetic resonance imaging
- FTY720 is currently in Phase HI studies of remitting-relapsing multiple sclerosis (Brinkmann, Pharmacology & Therapeutics,
- FTY720 has been reported to impair migration of dendritic cells infected with
- Francisella tularensis to the mediastinal lymph node, thereby reducing the bacterial colonization of it. Francisella tularensis is associated with tularemia, ulceroglandular infection, respiratory infection and a typhoidal disease (E. Bar-Haim et al, PLoS Pathogens, 4(11): el 000211. doi:10.1371/journal. ⁇ pat.l000211, 2008).
- Agonism of the SlPl receptor has been implicated in enhancement of survival of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells. Survival of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells is a required component of the remyelination process. Remyelination of multiple sclerosis lesions is considered to promote recovery from clinical relapses. (Miron et al, Ann. Neurol, 63:61-71,
- SlPl receptor plays a role in platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-induced oligodendrocyte progenitor cell mitogenesis (Jung et al, GHa, 55:1656-1667, 2007).
- PDGF platelet-derived growth factor
- Agonism of the SlPl receptor has also been reported to mediate migration of neural stem cells toward injured areas of the central nervous system (CNS), including in a rat model of spinal cord injury (Kimura et al, Stem Cells, 25:115-124, 2007).
- Agonism of the SlPl receptor has been implicated in the inhibition of keratinocyte proliferation (Sauer et al, J. Biol. Chem., 279:38471-38479, 2004), consistent with reports that SlP inhibits keratinocyte proliferation (Kim et al, Cell Signal, 16:89-95, 2004).
- the hyperproliferation of keratinocytes at the entrance to the hair follicle, which can then become blocked, and an associated inflammation are significant pathogenetic factors of acne (Koreck et al, Dermatology, 206:96-105, 2003; Webster, Cutis, 76:4-7, 2005).
- FTY720 has been reported to have therapeutic efficacy in inhibiting pathologic angiogenesis, such as that as may occur in tumor development. Inhibition of angiogenesis by FTY720 is thought to involve agonism of the SlPl receptor (Oo et al, J. Biol Chem., 282;9082-9089, 2007; Schmid et al, J. Cell Biochem., 101 :259-270, 2007). FTY720 has been reported to have therapeutic efficacy for inhibiting primary and metastatic tumor growth in a mouse model of melanoma (LaMontagne et al, Cancer Res., 66:221-231, 2006).
- FTY720 has been reported to have therapeutic efficacy in a mouse model for metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (Lee et al, Clin. Cancer Res., 11:84588466, 2005). It has been reported that oral administration of FTY720 to mice potently blocked
- VEGF-induced vascular permeability an important process associated with angiogenesis, inflammation, and pathological conditions such as sepsis, hypoxia, and solid tumor growth (T Sanchez et al, J. Biol. Chem., 278(47), 47281-47290, 2003).
- Cyclosporin A and FK506 are drugs used to prevent rejection of transplanted organs. Although they are effective in delaying or suppressing transplant rejection, classical immunosuppressants such as cyclosporin A and FK506 are known to cause several undesirable side effects including nephrotoxicity, neurotoxicity, /3-cell toxicity and gastrointestinal discomfort. There is an unmet need in organ transplantation for an immunosuppressant without these side effects which is effective as a monotherapy or in combination with a classical immunosuppressant for inhibiting migration of, e.g., alloantigen- reactive T-cells to the grafted tissue, thereby prolonging graft survival.
- FTY720 has been shown to have therapeutic efficacy in transplant rejection both as a monotherapy and in synergistic combination with a classical immunosuppressant, including cyclosporin A, FK506 and RAD (an mTOR inhibitor). It has been shown that, unlike the classical immunosuppressants cyclosporin A, FK506 and RAD, FTY720 has efficacy for prolonging graft survival without inducing general immunosuppression, and this difference in drug action is believed to be relevant to the synergism observed for the combination (Brinkmann et al, Transplant Pr oc, 33:530-531, 2001; Brinkmann et al, Transplantation, 72:764-769, 2001).
- a classical immunosuppressant including cyclosporin A, FK506 and RAD (an mTOR inhibitor). It has been shown that, unlike the classical immunosuppressants cyclosporin A, FK506 and RAD, FTY720 has efficacy for prolonging graft
- FTY720 has been reported to have therapeutic efficacy for prolonging allograft survival in a rat cardiac allograft model (Suzuki et al, Transpl. Immunol, 4:252-255, 1996). FTY720 has been reported to act synergistically with cyclosporin A to prolong rat skin allograft survival (Yanagawa et al, J.
- KRP-203 an SlP receptor agonist has been reported to have therapeutic efficacy for prolonging allograft survival in a rat skin allograft model and both as monotherapy and in synergistic combination with cyclosporin A in a rat cardiac allograft model (Shimizu et al, Circulation, 111 :222-229, 2005).
- KRP-203 also has been reported to have therapeutic efficacy in combination with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF; a prodrug for which the active metabolite is mycophenolic acid, an inhibitor of purine biosynthesis) for prolonging allograft survival both in a rat renal allograft model and in a rat cardiac allograft model (Suzuki et al, J. Heart Lung Transplant, 25:302-209, 2006; Fujishiro et al, J. Heart Lung Transplant, 25:825-833, 2006).
- MMF mycophenolate mofetil
- FTY720 has been reported to have therapeutic efficacy in a mouse islet graft model (Fu et al, Transplantation, 73:1425-1430, 2002; Liu et al, Microsurgery, 27:300-304; 2007) and in a study using human islet cells to evidence no detrimental effects on human islet function (Truong et al, American Journal of Transplantation, 7:2031-2038, 2007). FTY720 has been reported to reduce the nociceptive behavior in the spared nerve injury model for neuropathic pain which does not depend on prostaglandin synthesis (O. Costu et al, Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine 12(3), 995-1004, 2008).
- FTY720 has been reported to impair initiation of murine contact hypersensitivity (CHS). Adoptive transfer of immunized lymph node cells from mice treated with FTY720 during the sensitization phase was virtually incapable of inducing CHS response in recipients (D. Nakashima et al, J. Investigative Dermatology (128(12), 2833-2841, 2008). It has been reported that prophylactic oral administration of FTY720 (1 mg/kg, three times a week), completely prevented the development of experimental autoimmune myasthenia gravis (EAMG) in C57BL/6 mice (T. Kohono et al, Biological & Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 28(4), 736-739, 2005).
- CHS murine contact hypersensitivity
- the present invention encompasses compounds which are agonists of the SlPl receptor having selectivity over the S1P3 receptor.
- the S1P3 receptor and not the SlPl receptor, has been directly implicated in bradycardia (Sanna et al, J. Biol. Chem., 279:13839-13848, 2004).
- An SlPl receptor agonist selective over at least the S1P3 receptor has advantages over current therapies by virtue of an enhanced therapeutic window, allowing better tolerability with higher dosing and thus improving efficacy as therapy.

- Some embodiments of the present invention include a method of producing a pharmaceutical composition for "combination-therapy" comprising admixing at least one compound according to any of the compound embodiments disclosed herein, together with at least one known pharmaceutical agent as described herein and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
- SlPl receptor agonists are utilized as active ingredients in a pharmaceutical composition, these are not intended for use only in humans, but in other non- human mammals as well. Indeed, recent advances in the area of animal health-care mandate that consideration be given for the use of active agents, such as SlPl receptor agonists, for the treatment of a SlPl receptor-associated disease or disorder in companionship animals (e.g., cats, dogs, etc.) and in livestock animals (e.g., cows, chickens, fish, etc.). Those of ordinary skill in the art are readily credited with understanding the utility of such compounds in such settings.
- the compounds of the present invention can be administrated in a wide variety of oral and parenteral dosage forms. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the following dosage forms may comprise, as the active component, either a compound of the invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or as a solvate or hydrate thereof. Moreover, various hydrates and solvates of the compounds of the invention and their salts will find use as intermediates in the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions. Typical procedures for making and identifying suitable hydrates and solvates, outside those mentioned herein, are well known to those in the art; see for example, pages 202-209 of KJ.
- one aspect of the present invention pertains to hydrates and solvates of compounds of the present invention and/or their pharmaceutical acceptable salts, as described herein, that can be isolated and characterized by methods known in the art, such as, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), TGA-mass spectroscopy, TGA-Infrared spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Karl Fisher titration, high resolution X-ray diffraction, and the like.

Other synthetic methods that are useful are discussed infra. Moreover, it should be understood that all of the atoms represented in the compounds of the invention can be either the most commonly occurring isotope of such atoms or a scarcer radio-isotope or nonradioactive isotope.
- Synthetic methods for incorporating radio-isotopes into organic compounds are applicable to compounds of the invention and are well known in the art. Certain synthetic methods, for example, for incorporating activity levels of tritium into target molecules, are as follows:
- Tritium Gas Exposure Labeling This procedure involves exposing precursors containing exchangeable protons to tritium gas in the presence of a suitable catalyst.
- A. Sandmeyer and like reactions This procedure transforms an aryl amine or a heteroaryl amine into a diazonium salt, such as a diazonium tetrafluoroborate salt and subsequently to 125 I labeled compound using Na 125 I.
- a represented procedure was reported by Zhu, G-D. and co-workers in J. Org. Chem., 2002, 67, 943-948.
- B. Ortho 125 Iodination of phenols This procedure allows for the incorporation of 125 I at the ortho position of a phenol as reported by Collier, T. L. and co-workers in J. Labelled Compd. Radiopharm., 1999, 42, S264-S266.
- Aryl and heteroaryl bromide exchange with 125 I This method is generally a two step process.
- the first step is the conversion of the aryl or heteroaryl bromide to the corresponding tri-alkyltin intermediate using for example, a Pd catalyzed reaction [i.e. Pd(Ph 3 P) 4 ] or through an aryl or heteroaryl lithium, in the presence of a tri-alkyltinhalide or hexaalkylditin [e.g., (CH 3 ) 3 SnSn(CH 3 ) 3 ].

- CHO-Kl cells were obtained from ATCC ® (Manassas, VA; Catalog # CCL-61).
- An agonist of the SlPl receptor was detected in the HTRF ® assay for direct cAMP measurement as a compound which decreased cAMP concentration.
- the HTRF ® assay also was used to determine ECs 0 values for SlPl receptor agonists.
- the HTRF ® assay kit was purchased from Cisbio-US, Inc. (Bedford, MA; Catalog # 62AM4PEC).
- the HTRF ® assay supported by the kit is a competitive immunoassay between endogenous cAMP produced by the CHO-Kl cells and tracer cAMP labeled with the dye d2.
- the tracer binding is visualized by a monoclonal anti-cAMP antibody labeled with Cryptate.
- the specific signal i.e., fluorescence resonance energy transfer, FRET
- FRET fluorescence resonance energy transfer
- Standard curve The fluorescence ratio (665 nm/620 nm) of the standards (0.17 to 712 nM cAMP) included in the assay was calculated and used to generate a cAMP standard curve according to the kit manufacturer's instructions. The fluorescence ratio of the samples (test compound or compound buffer) was calculated and used to deduce respective cAMP concentrations by reference to the cAMP standard curve.
- the HTRF ® assay was carried out using a two-step protocol essentially according to the kit manufacturer's instructions, in 20 ⁇ L total volume per well in
- HTRF ® readout was accomplished using a PHERAstar (BMG LABTECH Inc., Durham, NC) or EnVisionTM (PerkinElmer, Fremont CA) microplate reader.
- Certain other compounds of the invention had activity values ranging from about 0.1 nM to about 144 nM in this assay.
- Example 3 Cellular/Functional Ca 2+ Assay for Agonist Activity on S1P3 Receptor.
- a compound of the invention can be shown to have no or substantially no agonist activity at the S1P3 receptor by using in assay a human neuroblastoma cell line which endogenously expresses S1P3 (predominantly), S1P2 and S1P5 receptors, but not SlPl or S1P4 receptors, based on mRNA analysis (Villullas et al, J. Neurosci. Res., 73:215-226, 2003). Of these, S1P3 and S1P2 receptors respond to agonists, such as SlP, with an intracellular calcium increase. No or substantially no increase of intracellular calcium in response to a test compound is indicative of the test compound exhibiting no or substantially no agonist activity on the S1P3 receptor.
- Such an assay can be performed commercially, e.g. by Caliper LifeSciences (Hopkinton, MA).
- the human neuroblastoma cells are washed and resuspended in physiological buffer. The cells are then loaded with dye that measures intracellular calcium. SlP is used as a reference agonist. After addition of SlP or a test compound, fluorescence is measured at 485 nm excitation / 525 nm emission every 2 s for at least 60 s. Calcium ionophore A23187 is then added as an internal positive control.
