QUINAZOLINE DERIVATIVES AND THEIR USE AS DNA

METHYLTRANSFERASE INHIBITORS

The present invention relates to quinazoline derivatives useful as DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitors, notably in the treatment of cancer.

Gene expression is known to be controlled by epigenetic modifications. Methylation of deoxycytidines (dC) in the DNA was shown to play a key role in epigenetic regulation in mammals (Berger et al. Genes Dev. 2009, 23, 781; Kelly et al. Biotechnol. 2010, 28, 1069). It is the most stable epigenetic mark and occurs at CpG sites, which are regrouped in island and essentially located in promoters, repeated sequences and CpG island shores (Gros et al. Biochimie 2012, 94, 2280). Hypermethylation of promoters' CpG islands induces gene silencing while hypomethylation induces gene expression (Sharma et al. Carcinogenesis 2010, 31, 27; Esteller N. Engl. J. Med. 2008, 358, 1148).

The enzymes responsible for DNA methylation are DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs). Two families of catalytically-active DNMTs have been identified: DNMT1, responsible for DNA methylation maintenance during replication, and DNMT3A and 3B, responsible for de novo DNA methylation. DNMTs add a methyl group on the carbon-5 position of the deoxycytosine at the CpG site in the DNA by using S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet) as methyl donor (Jurkowska et al. ChemBioChem 2011, 12, 206).

Alteration of DNA methylation patterns lead to various diseases such as cancer

(Baylin and Jones Nat. Rev. Cancer 2011, 11, 726). Cancerous cells often present aberrant DNA methylation, in particular a specific hypermethylation of tumour suppressor genes is observed. Restoring their expression by specific inhibition of DNA methylation represents an attractive therapeutic strategy (Kelly et al. Biotechnol. 2010, 28, 1069; Fahy et al. Expert Opin. Ther. Pat. 2012, 22, 1427).

DNMT inhibitors can be divided into two families: nucleoside analogues and non- nucleosides. The first are the most active ones. Two of them were FDA approved: 5- azacytidine (Vidaza®) and 5-azadeoxycytidine (Dacogene®) (Gros et al. Biochimie 2012, 94, 2280). Despite their high efficiency, their poor bioavailability, their instability in physiologic media and their little selectivity restrict their use (Fahy et al. Expert Opin. Ther. Pat. 2012, 22, 1427). Non-nucleoside analogues present various structures and mechanisms of action. Many of them were shown to target the catalytic site but suffer from high toxicity, lack of specificity and weak activity. There exists thus a need for novel DNMT inhibitors.

The inventors of the present invention have thus discovered that quinazoline derivatives can be used as DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitors.

The present invention concerns thus a com ound of the following formula (I):

- Ro represents H; CHO; C0 ₂ -((Ci-C ₆ )alkyl); or a (Ci-C ₆ )alkyl optionally substituted with CHO, C0 ₂ H or C0 ₂ -((Ci-C ₆ )alkyl),

A first method is a method to prepare a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, in which W = NRo with Ro ≠ H, comprising:

(a) reacting a compound of formula (I) in which W = NH with:

- a compound of formula Ro-LG where Ro represents a (Ci-C ₆ )alkyl optionally substituted with CHO, C0 ₂ H or C0 ₂ -((Ci-C ₆ )alkyl) and LG represents a leaving group to give a compound of formula (I) in which W = NRo with Ro representing a (Ci-C ₆ )alkyl optionally substituted with CHO, C0 ₂ H or C0 ₂ -

((Ci-C ₆ )alkyl),

- dimethylformamide (DMF) to give a compound of formula (I) in which W = NRo with Ro = CHO, or

- a compound of formula Ro-Ai where Ro represents C0 ₂ -((Ci-C ₆ )alkyl) and Ai represents a (Ci-C ₆ )alkoxy group or a halogen atom (such as CI or Br) to give a compound of formula (I) in which W = NRo with Ro representing C0 ₂ -((Ci- C ₆ )alkyl), and

(b) optionally salifying or solvating the compound obtained in step (a) to give a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate of a compound of formula (I) in which W = NRo with Ro as defined above. Step (a):

When Ro represents a (Ci-Ce) lkyl optionally substituted with CHO, CO ₂ H or CO ₂ - ((Ci-Ce)alkyl):

The term "leaving group", as used in the present invention, refers to a chemical group which can be easily replaced with a nucleophile during a nucleophile substitution reaction, the nucleophile being in the case of step (a) a secondary amine, i.e. a molecule carrying a group NH. Such a leaving group can be in particular a halogen atom or a sulfonate. The sulfonate is in particular a group -OSO2-R7 with R ₇ representing a (Ci- C ₆ )alkyl, aryl, aryl-(Ci-C6)-alkyl or (Ci-C6)-alkyl-aryl group. The sulfonate can be in particular a mesylate (CH ₃ -S(0 ₂ )0-), a triflate (CF ₃ -S(0) ₂ 0-) or a tosylate (/?-Me-C ₆ H ₄ - S(0) ₂ 0-).

The LG group can be in particular a halogen atom such as a bromine.

Step (a) is advantageously carried out in the presence of a base such as triethylamine.

When Ro represents a substituted (Ci-C ₆ )alkyl group, the (Ci-C ₆ )alkyl group will be advantageously substituted with a C0 ₂ -((Ci-C6)alkyl) group. This group can then be hydrolysed, notably in the presence of NaOH or KOH, to give a C0 ₂ H group (Ro represents then a (Ci-C6)alkyl substituted with C0 ₂ H). A reduction step in conditions well known to the one skilled in the art allows obtaining a CHO group (Ro represents then a (Ci-C6)alkyl substituted with CHO).

When Ro represents CHO:

The reaction is advantageously performed using DMF as solvent, notably in the presence of a base such as triethylamine.

When Ro represents C0 ₂ -((Ci-Ce)alkyl):

This reaction can be carried out in conditions to prepare carbamates well known to the one skilled in the art.

Step (b :

The salification or solvatation step can be carried out by methods well known to the one skilled in the art, in particular by reaction of the compound of formula (I) obtained in step (a) with a pharmaceutically acceptable acid (organic or inorganic acid), base (organic or inorganic acid) or solvent, as defined previously.

The solvent can be notably the solvent used in the last step of the preparation of the compound according to the invention, in particular the solvent used in step (a). Thus steps (a) and (b) can be carried out in a single step, without isolating intermediate compounds.

A second method is a method to prepare a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, in which W represents NRo, comprising:

(1) reacting a compound of the following formula (II):

in which Q, Xi and nl are as defined above and Wi represents LGi, NHR ₈ ,

with a compound of the following formula (III):

in which X ₂ , X ₃ , X ₄ and n2 are as defined above and W ₂ represents LG ₂ , NHR ₈ , wherein LGi and LG ₂ represent, independently of each other, a leaving group and Rs represents Ro or a N-protecting group,

on the condition that:

when Wi represents LGi, then W ₂ represents NHR ₈ and or , then W ₂ represents LG ₂ ,

and, when Wi or W ₂ represents NHR ₈ with R ₈ representing a N-protecting group, deprotecting the nitrogen atom bearing the N-protecting group,

to give a compound of formula (I) as defined above, and

(2) optionally salifying or solvating the compound obtained in step (1) to give a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate of a compound of formula (I) as defined above. Step (1):

The LGi and LG ₂ groups can be in particular a halogen atom such as a bromine or chlorine.

The reaction between the compounds of formula (II) and (III) can be carried out in the presence of a base, such as K ₂ CO ₃ . A catalytic amount of KI can also be added to the reaction medium.

R ₈ can represent in particular H or a N-protecting group, notably a N-protecting group. When Wi or W ₂ represents NHR ₈ with R ₈ representing H or a N-protecting group, it is possible to prepare compounds of formula (I) with W = NH. The term "protecting group", as used in the present invention, refers to a chemical group which selectively blocks a reactive site in a multifunctional compound so as to allow selectively performing a chemical reaction on another unprotected reactive site.

The term "N-protecting group", as used in the present invention, refers to those groups intended to protect an amine function (notably a primary amine function) against undesirable reactions (such as a disubstitution of the primary amine function) during synthetic procedures. Commonly used N-protecting groups are disclosed in Greene, "Protective Groups In Organic Synthesis," (John Wiley & Sons, New York (1981)). An amine function protected by a N-protecting group can be a carbamate, an amide, a sulfonamide, an N-alkyl derivative, an amino acetal derivative, a N-benzyl derivative, an imine derivative, an enamine derivative or a N-heteroatom derivative. In particular, N- protecting groups include formyl; benzyl (Bn); -CO-R ₉ such as acetyl (Ac), pivaloyl (Piv or Pv) or benzoyl (Bz); -CO ₂ -R ₉ such as tbutyloxycarbonyl (Boc), trichloroethoxycarbonyl (TROC), allyloxycarbonyl (Alloc) or benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz or Z); -SO ₂ -R ₉ such as phenylsulfonyl or 2-nitrobenzenesulfonyl (Nos or Ns); and the like, with R ₉ representing a (Ci-C ₆ )alkyl optionally substituted with one or several halogen atoms such as F or CI; a (C ₂ - C ₆ )alkenyl such as an allyl; an aryl, such as a phenyl, optionally substituted with N0 ₂ ; or an aryl-(Ci-C6)alkyl such as a benzyl.

The step of deprotecting the nitrogen atom bearing the N-protecting group can be carried out by methods well known to the one skilled in the art, notably as disclosed in Greene, "Protective Groups In Organic Synthesis," (John Wiley & Sons, New York (1981)).

The N-protecting group will be in particular 2-nitrobenzenesulfonyl (Nos or Ns). It can be deprotected in the presence of thiophenol.

Compounds 60 to 71 were synthesized following the general procedure below from compound 43.

General rocedure for compounds 60 to 71.

To a solution of triazole (0.93mmol) and POCl ₃ (0.32mmol) in 0.7 mL of acetonitrile at 0°C was added TEA (130μΕ) dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0°C for 40min then 30min at room temperature. 43 (0.14mmol) was added and the mixture was vigorously stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction was followed by TLC using ethyl acetate as eluent. The mixture was refluxed for lh to reach completion. After complete consumption of the starting material, the solvent was removed and the residue was taken off with ethyl acetate and washed with water and brine, and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed and the residue was solubilized in DMF (0.5mL). The desired amine (0.23mmol) and TEA (39μί; 0.28mmol) were added and the mixture was stirred for 3h at room temperature. The mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with water, brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed and the residue was purified by silica gel flash chromatography using a linear gradient of ethyl acetate (0 to 100% AcOEt) in cyclohexane to afford 60 to 71. 4-(2-(3-chlorophenyl)ethylamino)-7-(0-(( V-Boc) piperidin-4-ylmethoxy)) quinazoline 60) (70 mg ; 0.14 mmol, quantitative):

Compounds AA to AL were synthesized following the general procedure from com ounds 72 to 83 respectively.

To a solution of 0.1 M of compound 72 to 83 K ₂ CO ₃ (2eq) and a catalytic amount of KI in DMF was added 26 (2eq). The mixture was stirred at 65°C overnight then was diluted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase was washed with water and brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed and the residue was purified by silica gel flash chromatography using a linear gradient of ammonia IN in methanol (0→10% MeOH/NHs) in dichloromethane or by reversed phase HPLC using a linear acetonitrile gradient with 0.01% of TEA (0→80% CH ₃ CN) to afford Compounds AA to AL.

II. Biological tests of the compounds according to the invention

DNMT3A Assay.

DNMT3A enzyme inhibition was adapted from the restriction-based fluorescence assay protocol described in Ceccaldi et al. (ChemBioChem 2011, 12, 1337-45). Briefly, a 5'- labelled biotin oligonucleotide is hybridized to its complementary strand labelled with 6- carboxyfluorescein at the 3'-end into a 384 well microplate (black Optiplates; Perkin Elmer) pre-coated with avidin. The duplex contains a unique CpG site overlapping with a restriction site of a methylation sensitive restriction enzyme. The human C-terminal DNMT3A (a.a. 623-908), produced as described in Gros et al. (Nucleic Acids Research 2013 August 25), was added in each well (200 ng/well) and mixed with the chemical compounds at desired concentrations and freshly prepared AdoMet (20 μΜ final concentration) to start the reaction in a total volume of 50 μί. After 1 hour incubation at 37°C each well were washed three times with PBS, Tween-20 0.05%, NaCl (500 mM) and three more times with PBST. Specific fluorescent signals were detected with the methylation-sensitive restriction enzyme HpyCH4IV (NEB) as described and measured on a Perkin Elmer Envision detector. The percentage of inhibition is reported. The formula used to calculate the percentage of inhibition is [(X-Y)/ X] x 100, where X is the signal determined in the absence of the inhibitor and Y is the signal obtained in the presence of the inhibitor. The concentration at which 50 % of efficacy of inhibition is observed (EC50) was determined by analysis of a concentration range of the tested compound in triplicates. The non- linear regression fittings with sigmoidal dose-response (variable slope) were performed with GraphPad Prism 4.03 (GraphPad Software).

DNMT1 Assay.

His-DNMTl (182kDa, human) was cloned, expressed and purified as described in Halby et al. (ChemBioChem 2012, 13, 157-65). The reaction was performed in a ΙΟμΙ _^ total reaction volume in low volume NBS™ 384-well microplates (Corning), containing the tested compound (up to 1% DMSO), ΙμΜ of a SAM/[methyl- ³ H] SAM (3TBq/mmol, PerkinElmer) mix in a ratio of 3-to-l (isotopic dilution 1 *:3), 0.3μΜ of biotinylated hemimethylated DNA duplex (5 ' -G ATm CGCm CG ATGm CGm CG AATm CGm CG AT mCGATGmCGAT-3 ' and BIOT-5'-ATCGCATCGATCGCGATTCGCGCATCGGCG ATC-3'), and 90nM of DNMT1 in methylation buffer (20mM HEPES pH 7.2, lmM EDTA, 50mM KC1, 25μg/mL BSA). The reaction was incubated at 37°C for 2 hours. 8μί are then transferred into a streptavidin 96-well scintillant coated Flashplate™ (PerkinElmer) containing 190μΕ of 20μΜ SAH in 50mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4. The Flashplate™ was agitated at room temperature for 1 hour, washed three times with 200μί of 0.05% Tween®-20 in 50mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4, and read in 200μΕ of 50mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4 on TopCount NXT (PerkinElmer).

Anti-proliferative activity.

- On KG-1 and Karpas 299 cells:

KG-1 and Karpas299 human leukemia cells were obtained from the ATCC (USA) and cultivated in RPMI 1640 medium (with HEPES and Glutamine, BE12-115F, Lonza, France) supplemented with, respectively, 20% and 15% foetal calf serum (Lonza, France), at 37°C and under 5% C0 ₂ . To measure the anti-proliferative properties of tested molecules, 2x10 ⁴ cells are seeded at day 0 in a 96 wells plate. The compounds to be tested, stored at - 20°C as 10 ^"2 M stock solution in 100% DMSO, are freshly diluted on day 1 in RPMI 1640 medium, before adding a dose range of 3.2 nM to 10 μΜ to the cells. This treatment is repeated on day 2 and 3, and on day 4 cell viability is assessed using the ATPLite kit from Perkin (ATPlite 1 Step Luminescence Assay System, ref 3016739), following the provider instructions. The raw data are analyzed with GraphPad Prism software (v4.03) to generate EC50 values corresponding to the compound concentrations giving 50% reduction in cell viability. The values presented are the mean results of at least two independent experiments. The 95%) confidence intervals for these EC50 values are also indicated.

- On WM266.4, U87MG and PANC1 cells:

The antiproliferative activity of compounds was measured in vitro using the ATP quantification method "ATPlite one step assay" (Perkin Elmer ref 6016739) according to the manufacturer conditions.

Briefly, WM266.4 cells (human melanoma cells) (5 x 104 cells per ml in RPMI 1640 medium, 10% FBS, 2 mM glutamine, 50 U/mL penicillin/streptomycin and 1.25 μg/mL fungizone), PANC1 cells (human pancreatic carcinoma cells) (2 x 104 cells per ml in DMEM medium, 10% FBS, 2 mM glutamine, 50 U/mL penicillin/streptomycin and 1.25 μg/mL fungizone), and U87MG cells (human neuronal gliablastoma - astrocytoma - cells) (3 x 104 cells per ml in MEM medium, 10% FBS, 2 mM glutamine, 50 U/mL penicillin/streptomycin and 1.25 μg/mL fungizone) were seeded in 96-well plates, incubated for 24 h and treated with 8 increasing concentrations of test compounds diluted in cells respective mediums, or vehicle in triplicate.

Cells were then incubated for 72 h at 37 °C in humidified 5% C0 ₂ atmosphere.

At the end of the experiment, cell viability was evaluated by determining the level of ATP released by viable cells.

EC50 values were determined with curve fitting analysis method (non linear regression model with a sigmoid dose response, variable Hill slope coefficient) provided by the Prism Software (GraphPad). Results were expressed as average EC50 values (concentration of tested compound that inhibits 50% of the maximum effect for the considered compound).

The results of these tests obtained with the compounds of the invention are indicated below:
