Description:
153848/01 Compound Summary of the invention The present invention relates to certain compounds, in particular new pyrrolopyrimidines and purines . These new compounds have been found to be inhibitors of CSF-1R (Colony stimulation factor-1 receptor), and as a result offer potential in the treatment of a number of diseases, such as cancers, bone disorders, neurological diseases, inflammatory disorders and eye diseases. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds, to the compounds for use in the treatment of various diseases, to methods of treating diseases by administration of said compounds, to the use of the compounds in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment or prevention of various diseases, and to processes for the formation of said compounds. Background to the invention CSF-1R (Colony stimulating factor-1 receptor) has emerged as an important pharmaceutical target as it plays an important role in a number of diseases (J. Med. Chem.2018, 61, 13, 5450–5466, Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer (2017) 5:53, Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy 103 (2018) 662–679). Colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) is a common proinflammatory cytokine responsible for various disorders, which acts by binding to the receptor CSF-1R. CSF-1R or its activator the cytokine colony stimulation factor-1 (CSF1) is over expressed in many disorders and consequently is an important target. A number of inhibitors have been investigated, such as ABT-869, Imatinib, AG013736, JNJ-40346527, PLX3397, DCC-3014 and Ki20227. A few candidates have started clinical trials, but many side effects have been noted. The successful targeting of CSF-1R is therefore of importance to the pharmaceutical industry, and given its role in a number of diseases, even offers the possibility of multifunctional therapy (Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy 103 (2018) 662–679). Upon binding of CSF1 or IL-34 (interleukin 34) to the extracellular domain of CSF1R, also called M-CSFR (Macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor) or CD115 (Cluster of Differentiation 115), the cell-surface receptor undergoes oligomerization and subsequent phosphorylation of tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic kinase domain activating signal transduction. The kinase receptor mediates signalling responsible for the survival, function, proliferation and differentiation of cells in the myeloid lineage such as monocytes, macrophages, microglia and osteoclasts. (see Chitu, V.; Caescu, C. I.; R., S.; Lennartsson, J.; Rönnstrand, L.; Heldin, C. H., The PDGFR Receptor family, In: Receptor Tyrosine Kinases: Family and Subfamilies. Springer International Publishing, Switzerland: 2015; p 375-525) The present group previously reported in WO2015/000959 certain new pyrrolo-, thieno-, and furo-[2,3-d]pyrimidine compounds and in particular, a series of such new 4-amino-6-aryl [2,3-d]pyrimidines. These compounds were found to be epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase (EGFR-TK) inhibitors and therefore offered potential in the treatment of cancer. The reported compounds all had a two-atom linker (NH-CRH) at the C-4 position of the bicyclic ring. The present inventors have surprisingly found that compounds with a single atom linker in the C- 4 position are potent CSF-1R-inhibitors. This, unexpectedly, opens up a whole new field of therapeutic targeting for a number of diseases. The present inventors have thus devised a class of compounds which surprisingly act as CSF-1R inhibitors, with structures typically based on pyrrolopyrimidines and purines . Given the known importance of targeting CSF-1R for a wide range of conditions, the present compounds represent a valuable new pharmaceutical class. Summary of the invention In a first aspect, the invention provides a compound of formula (I) wherein: − X is N or CH, preferably CH; − Z is NR 2 , O, S, or CHR 2 , wherein R 2 is hydrogen, halogen (preferably F), methyl or ethyl, or deuterated or partially deuterated methyl or ethyl; − A is a 5- or 6-membered hydrocarbyl or heterocyclic ring which may be optionally substituted with at least one R 1 group; − each R 1 is independently selected from halogen, hydroxyl, -OCF 3 , -CF 3 , - CF 2 H, -OCF 2 H, CH(CF 3 )OH, -C 1-6 -alkyl, -O-C 1-6 -alkyl, -O-(C 1 -C 6 alkyl)- CH 2 F, -O-(C 1 -C 6 alkyl)-CHF 2 , -O-(C 1 -C 6 alkyl)-CF 3 , -C 1-6 alkyl-OH, -[C 1- 6 alkyl] m -COOH, -[C 1-6 alkyl] m -COOC 1-6 alkyl, -[C 1-6 alkyl] m -OCOC 1-6 alkyl, - OCOR, -CO-[C 1-6 alkyl]-COOH, -CO-[C 1-6 alkyl]-COOR, C(CH 3 ) 2 -CH 2 OH, - C(OH) 2 (C 1-6 alkyl-OH), -C(OH)(C 1-6 alkyl-OH) 2 , -C(C 1-6 alkyl-OH) 3, , C(CH 3 ) 2 OH, -NH2, NHR, -NR2, -NO2, -SO2NH2, -NHSO2R, -NRSO2R, -SO2NHR, - SO2NR2, -POR2, pyridyl (preferably ortho-pyridyl), cyclopropyl or cyclobutyl substituted with an –OH group, C1-C10 aliphatic hydrocarbyl group comprising at least one heteroatom selected from O, or N, a -O-C1-C10 aliphatic hydrocarbyl group containing at least one heteroatom selected from O or N, or a -[CH2]m-heterocycle wherein said heterocycle is optionally substituted with =O or -OH; − each m is 0 or 1; − R 3 is a 5- or 6-membered hydrocarbyl or heterocyclic ring either of which may be optionally substituted with one or more groups independently selected from C 1 -C 4 alkyl, hydroxyl, halogen, -CF 3 , -CF 2 H, -NR 2 , -NHCOR, - CO 2 H, -CO 2 R, or –OR ; − each R is C 1 -C 6 alkyl; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof; with the provisos that when Z is O or NH, then A is not phenyl substituted with a meta–NH 2 group; and when Z is NH and A is phenyl, then R 3 is not phenyl substituted with both – OH and –OMe.

It has been found that polar R 1 groups typically result in increased potency in terms of CSF-1R inhibition. This is likely caused by favourable polar interactions at the surface of the binding pocket. The R 1 group typically protrudes out of the ligand-protein complex when the structure is bound to CSF-1R. The R 1 group(s) can thus be relatively large, and can potentially be used to increase the solubility and tune other pharmacokinetic properties of the compound, without affecting its ability to bind to the receptor. Lack of water solubility is typically a problem for pharmaceuticals and whilst our compounds are not typically water soluble in non- salt form, the increased polarity for certain R 1 groups can increase bioavailability. When R 1 is -C1-6-alkyl, R 1 may typically be i Pr or Me. Typically, R 1 is -C1-6- alkyl when A is pyrazolyl. When R 1 is a C 1 -C 10 aliphatic hydrocarbyl group comprising at least one heteroatom selected from O or N, the O or N atoms are typically within the C 1 -C 10 group, i.e. embedded within the chain, or at a terminal position, i.e. the end of the chain. Typically, said C 1 -C 10 aliphatic hydrocarbyl group containing at least one heteroatom selected from O and N is a C 1 -C 10 , preferably C 1 -C 8 , preferably C 1 -C 6 aliphatic hydrocarbyl group containing at least one group selected from ether, carboxylic acid, ester, alcohol, primary amine, secondary amine, tertiary amine, amide, preferably selected from ether, alcohol, primary amine, secondary amine, tertiary amine. The R 1 group in this case may contain a cyclic group or may be acyclic. The aliphatic hydrocarbyl group is typically, however, non-cyclic in this instance. Suitable groups therefore include C1-C10 aliphatic hydrocarbyl groups comprising at least one ether group, at least one –NH- group, at least one –NR- group, at least one –NHR group, or at least one –NR2 group, wherein R is a C1-C6 alkyl group. A suitable R 1 group in this case could be, for example: When R 1 is a -O-C 1 -C 10 aliphatic hydrocarbyl group containing at least one heteroatom selected from O or N, the same considerations apply for the substitutions with the O or N groups. The group may be acyclic or may be cyclic or comprise a cyclic moiety. If it is cyclic or comprises a cyclic moiety, the R 1 group preferably is or comprises a O- or N-heterocycle, preferably an O-heterocycle. Suitable R 1 groups in this case include, for example, –O-[CH 2 -CH 2 -O] z -CH 3 (i.e. ‘PEG’-type groups), with z being 1-6, preferably 1-4, more preferably 1-3, e.g.1 or 3. Suitable R 1 groups in this case could be: When R 1 is a -[CH2]m-heterocycle wherein said heterocycle is optionally substituted with =O’, the heterocycle may be any non-aromatic or aromatic heterocycle (typically 5- or 6-membered), e.g. containing one or two atoms selected from N, O or S (preferably O, or both N and O). The =O substitution, if present, is typically on the ring (e.g. as in lactones). Particular examples of such R 1 groups include: For R 1 , a particularly preferred cyclopropyl or cyclobutyl substituted with an –OH group is: As mentioned above the A group in all embodiments of the invention is a 5- or 6-membered hydrocarbyl or heterocyclic ring optionally substituted with at least one group R 1 group.

Said heterocyclic ring is typically either a non- aromatic heterocyclic ring comprising at least one (e.g.1 or 2) heteroatom selected from N, O, or S, e.g. piperidine, tetrahydropyran, tetrahydrofuran, dihydropyran, morpholine, tetrahydrofuran, pyrrolidine, or a heteroaryl ring comprising at least one (e.g.1 or 2) heteroatom selected from N, O, or S, e.g. pyridine, thiophene, furan, imidazole, pyrazole, thiophene, furan, pyrrole, thiazole, thiophene, oxazole, isoxazole. In a particular embodiment, the 6-membered hydrocarbyl or heterocyclic ring in the A group is selected from phenyl, cyclohexenyl, pyridyl, morpholinyl, dihydropyranyl. In a particular embodiment, the 6-membered hydrocarbyl or heterocyclic ring in the A group is selected from phenyl, cyclohexenyl, morpholinyl, dihydropyranyl.

When Z = O, A is typically substituted with at least one R 1 group, preferably phenyl substituted with at least one R 1 group. When Z is NH, and R3 is a heterocycli ring, A is preferably substituted with at least one R1 group. Most preferably, A is phenyl optionally substituted with one R 1 group selected from -C 1-6 alkyl-OH or -O-C 1-6 -alkyl, preferably -C 1-3 alkyl-OH or -O-C 1-3 - alkyl, more preferably -C1-2alkyl-OH or -O-C1-2-alkyl, more preferably –(CH2)-OH or –OCH3, more preferably para –(CH2)-OH or para –OCH3. R 3 is a 5- or 6-membered hydrocarbyl or heterocyclic ring either of which may be optionally substituted with one or more groups (preferably one group) independently selected from C1-C4 alkyl, hydroxyl, halogen, -CF3, -CF2H, -NR2, - NHCOR, -CO2H, -CO2R, or –OR. Each R is C1-C6 alkyl. C1-C4 and C1-C6 alkyl herein covers both linear and branched C1-C4/C6 alkyl. For R 3 , the 5- or 6-membered hydrocarbyl ring is typically an aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbyl ring preferably selected from phenyl, cyclopentyl, and cyclohexyl, preferably selected from phenyl and cyclopentyl, preferably phenyl. The 5- or 6- membered heterocyclic ring is typically either a non-aromatic heterocyclic ring comprising one heteroatom selected from N, O, or S, e.g. piperidine, tetrahydropyran, tetrahydrofuran, or a heteroaryl ring comprising one heteroatom selected from N, O, or S, e.g. pyridine, thiophene, furan. Alternatively, when R 3 is a 5- or 6-membererd heterocyclic ring, it is a 5- or 6-membererd heterocyclic ring comprising one or two heteroatoms, preferably one heteroatom. Any of these rings can obviously be substituted, as per the optional substituents listed above. In a particular embodiment, R 3 is a 5- or 6-membered hydrocarbyl or heterocyclic ring substituted with a methyl group, preferably a phenyl ring substituted with a methyl group, more preferably a phenyl ring substituted with a methyl group in the meta position. Tetrahydropyran as R 3 has a strong potency-increasing effect in addition to increasing the solubility of the compounds. In a particular embodiment, therefore, R 3 is tetrahydropyranyl, in particular when Z is NR2.4-tetrahydropyranyl is preferred, In a particular embodiment, R 3 is a 5- or 6-membered hydrocarbyl ring or 5- or 6-membered non-aromatic heterocyclic ring, any of which may be optionally substituted with one or more groups independently selected from C1-C4 alkyl, hydroxyl, halogen, -CF 3 , -CF 2 H, -NR 2 , -NHCOR, -CO 2 H, -CO 2 R, or –OR; . In a particular embodiment, R 3 is a 5- or 6-membered hydrocarbyl or heterocyclic ring either of which may be optionally substituted with one or more groups independently selected from C 1 -C 4 alkyl, halogen, -CF 3 , -CF 2 H, -NR 2 , - NHCOR, -CO 2 H, or -CO 2 R; . In a particular embodiment, R 3 is a 5-membered hydrocarbyl or heterocyclic ring either of which may be optionally substituted with one or more groups independently selected from C 1 -C 4 alkyl, hydroxyl, halogen, - CF3, -CF2H, -NR2, -NHCOR, -CO2H, -CO2R, or –OR; or R 3 is a 6-membered hydrocarbyl or heterocyclic ring either of which is substituted by one or more groups independently selected from C1-C4 alkyl, halogen, -CF3, -CF2H, -NR2, -NHCOR, - CO2H, -CO2R or -CO2H; . In a particular embodiment, R 3 is phenyl optionally substituted with one or more groups (preferably one group) independently selected from C1-C4 alkyl, hydroxyl, halogen, -CF3, -CF2H, -NR2, -NHCOR, -CO2H, -CO2R, or –OR (wherein each R is C 1 -C 6 alkyl), preferably wherein R 3 is phenyl optionally substituted with C 1 -C 4 alkyl, halogen (preferably F) or -CF 3 . Most preferably, R 3 is phenyl optionally substituted with F, Me, i Pr, t Bu, -CF3, preferably phenyl optionally substituted with F, para-Me, para- i Pr, para- t Bu, para-CF 3 . In a particular embodiment, R 3 is substituted phenyl. In a particular embodiment, R 3 is a 5- or 6-membererd heterocyclic ring comprising one or two heteroatoms (only), preferably one heteroatom. In a particular embodiment, R3 is not oxadiazole. When Z = NR2, R 3 is typically a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring, preferably a 6-membered non-aromatic heterocyclic ring, preferably a 6-membered saturated heterocyclic ring, such as tetrahydropyranyl. When Z = NR2, R 3 is typically an O-based heterocyclic ring (i.e. a heterocyclic ring with only O as heteroatom). When Z = O, R 3 is typically unsubstituted phenyl. The nature of the R 3 group is important as it binds to an internal area of the CSF-1R protein. Because of the short one-atom ‘Z’ linker between the C-4 position of the bicyclic core and the R 3 substituent, considerable flexibility is possible for the substitution at the R 3 position, when compared to R 3 groups that are tethered to the bicyclic core via a 2-atom linker.

In a particular embodiment, the process comprises an additional step of: ii’) in the case of ZnBr-(CH2)-R 3 (i.e. if ZnBr-(CH2)-R 3 is used in step (ii)), reacting the resulting compound with a base followed by an alkylating agent (e.g. MeI or EtI) or fluorination agent (e.g. N-fluorobenzene-sulfonimide). Step (ii’) typically takes place after steps (i) and (ii). Alkylating agent also includes fluoroalkylating agents, e.g. for adding –CF 3 . In such a process, step i) may be carried out before step ii), or step ii) may be carried out before step i). Step iii) is always typically carried out after both steps i) and ii). Preferably the transition metal catalyst is a Pd-catalyst (e.g. PdCl2dppf, Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 , or Pd 2 dba 3 ). Halogens X 1 and X 2 can be the same or different. Typically, they are different. In a particular embodiment, X 1 is I and X 2 is Cl. In a particular embodiment, the protecting group PG is SEM or THP. The deprotection step (removing the protecting group PG) can be achieved using any standard method, as will be known to the skilled chemist, e.g. using acid (p-TsOH, HCl, trifluoroacetic acid etc.).

In a particular embodiment, the compounds of the invention can be prepared by the following routes Applications The compounds of the present invention are potent inhibitors of CSF-1R. This results in the compounds of the invention being of particular interest in a number of therapeutic applications, given the broad role CSF-1R plays in a number of conditions. In a particular aspect, the invention provides the compounds described herein for use in the treatment or prevention of a bone disorder, neurological disease, inflammatory disorder, cancer, or eye disease. The use may thus be therapeutic or prophylactic. Any discussion concerning the preventative/therapeutic uses or methods of the compounds of the invention apply equally to any pharmaceutical composition/formulation comprising the compounds of the invention. The most preferred compounds of the invention typically offer CSF-1R IC50 values of 65 nM or less, preferably 50 nM or less, preferably 28 nM or less, preferably 20 nM or less, preferably 15 nM or less, preferably 10 nM or less, such as 5 nM or less, 3 nM or less, or 1 nM or less.

In a particular embodiment, compounds with IC 50 values above 10 nM, e.g. above 15 nM, e.g. above 20 nM, e.g. above 28 nM are excluded from the invention, e.g. those reported herein with IC50 values above these numbers. In a particular embodiment, said bone disorder is osteoporosis, osteopetrosis, or osteosarcoma (for discussion, see Kodama, H. et al. Congenital osteoclast deficiency in osteopetrotic (op/op) mice is cured by injections of macrophage colony- stimulating factor. J. Exp. Med.173, 269–272 (1991), and Smeester BA, Slipek NJ, Pomeroy EJ, Laoharawee K, Osum SH, Larsson AT, Williams KB, Stratton N, Yamamoto K, Peterson JJ, Rathe SK, Mills LJ, Hudson WA, Crosby MR, Wang M, Rahrmann EP, Moriarity BS, Largaespada DA.

In a particular embodiment, said cancer is selected from lung cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, stomach cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, multiple myeloma, ovary cancer, glioblastoma, breast cancer, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, preferably multiple myeloma, ovary cancer, glioblastoma, breast cancer, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor. In a particular embodiment, said eye disease is macular degeneration. Formulation The compounds of the invention are preferably formulated as pharmaceutically acceptable compositions. The phrase "pharmaceutically acceptable", as used in connection with compositions of the invention, refers to molecular entities and other ingredients of such compositions that are physiologically tolerable and do not typically produce untoward reactions when administered to a mammal (e.g. human). Preferably, as used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable" means approved by a regulatory agency of the Federal or a state government or listed in the U.S. Pharmacopoeia or other generally recognized pharmacopoeia for use in mammals, and more particularly in humans. The compounds of the invention can be administered in salt, solvate, prodrug or ester form, especially salt form. Typically, a pharmaceutical acceptable salt may be readily prepared by using a desired acid. The salt may precipitate from solution and be collected by filtration or may be recovered by evaporation of the solvent. For example, an aqueous solution of an acid such as hydrochloric acid may be added to an aqueous suspension of a compound of formula (I) and the resulting mixture evaporated to dryness (lyophilised) to obtain the acid addition salt as a solid. Alternatively, a compound of the invention may be dissolved in a suitable solvent, for example an alcohol such as isopropanol, and the acid may be added in the same solvent or another suitable solvent. The resulting acid addition salt may then be precipitated directly, or by addition of a less polar solvent such as diisopropyl ether or hexane, and isolated by filtration. Suitable addition salts are formed from inorganic or organic acids which form non-toxic salts and examples are hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, sulphate, bisulphate, nitrate, phosphate, hydrogen phosphate, acetate, trifluoroacetate, maleate, malate, fumarate, lactate, tartrate, citrate, formate, gluconate, succinate, pyruvate, oxalate, oxaloacetate, trifluoroacetate, saccharate, benzoate, alkyl or aryl sulphonates (eg methanesulphonate, ethanesulphonate, benzenesulphonate or p-toluenesulphonate) and isethionate. Representative examples include trifluoroacetate and formate salts, for example the bis or tris trifluoroacetate salts and the mono or diformate salts, in particular the tris or bis trifluoroacetate salt and the monoformate salt. Those skilled in the art of organic chemistry will appreciate that many organic compounds can form complexes with solvents in which they are reacted or from which they are precipitated or crystallized. These complexes are known as "solvates". For example, a complex with water is known as a "hydrate". Solvates of the compounds of the invention are within the scope of the invention. The salts of the compound of Formula (I) may form solvates (e.g. hydrates) and the invention also includes all such solvates. The term "prodrug" as used herein means a compound which is converted within the body, e.g. by hydrolysis in the blood, into its active form that has medical effects. The compounds of the invention are proposed for use in the treatment or prevention of a bone disorder, neurological disease, inflammatory disorder, cancer, or eye disease. By treating or treatment is meant at least one of: (i). preventing or delaying the appearance of clinical symptoms of the disease developing in a mammal; (ii). inhibiting the disease i.e. arresting, reducing or delaying the development of the disease or a relapse thereof or at least one clinical or subclinical symptom thereof, or (iii). relieving or attenuating one or more of the clinical or subclinical symptoms of the disease. The benefit to a subject to be treated is either statistically significant or at least perceptible to the patient or to the physician. In general a skilled man can appreciate when "treatment" occurs. The word prevention is used herein to cover prophylactic treatment, i.e. treating subjects who are at risk of developing a disease in question. The compounds of the invention can be used on any animal subject, in particular a mammal and more particularly to a human or an animal serving as a model for a disease (e.g. mouse, monkey, etc.). An "effective dose" means the amount of a compound that, when administered to an animal for treating a state, disorder or condition, is sufficient to effect such treatment. The "effective dose" will vary depending on the compound, the disease and its severity and the age, weight, physical condition and responsiveness of the subject to be treated and will be ultimately at the discretion of the attendant doctor. While it is possible that, for use in the methods of the invention, a compound of the invention may be administered as the bulk substance, it is preferable to present the active ingredient in a pharmaceutical formulation, for example, wherein the agent is in admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or carrier selected with regard to the intended route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice. All of the discussion about use in the treatment or prevention of various diseases thus also applies to the formulations of the invention. In a particular embodiment, therefore, the invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound as defined herein and at least one excipient, for use in the treatment of a bone disorder, neurological disease, inflammatory disorder, cancer, or eye disease. The term "excipient" refers to a diluent, carrier, and/or vehicle with which an active compound is administered. The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention may contain combinations of more than one excipient or carrier. Such pharmaceutical excipients or carriers can be sterile liquids, such as water, saline solutions, aqueous dextrose solutions, aqueous glycerol solutions, and oils, including those of petroleum, animal, vegetable or synthetic origin, such as peanut oil, soybean oil, mineral oil, sesame oil and the like. Water or aqueous solution saline solutions and aqueous dextrose and glycerol solutions are preferably employed as carriers, particularly for injectable solutions. Suitable pharmaceutical carriers are described in "Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences" by E.W. Martin, 18th Edition. The choice of pharmaceutical carrier can be selected with regard to the intended route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice. The pharmaceutical compositions may comprise as, in addition to, the excipient any suitable binder(s), lubricant(s), suspending agent(s), coating agent(s), and/or solubilizing agent(s). Particularly preferred for the present invention are carriers suitable for immediate-release, i.e., release of most or all of the active ingredient over a short period of time, such as 60 minutes or less, and make rapid absorption of the drug possible. It will be appreciated that pharmaceutical compositions for use in accordance with the present invention may be in the form of oral, parenteral, transdermal, inhalation, sublingual, topical, implant, nasal, or enterally administered (or other mucosally administered) suspensions, capsules or tablets, which may be formulated in conventional manner using one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients. There may be different composition/formulation requirements depending on the different delivery systems. Likewise, if the composition comprises more than one active component, then those components may be administered by the same or different routes. The pharmaceutical formulations of the present invention can be liquids that are suitable for oral, mucosal and/or parenteral administration, for example, drops, syrups, solutions, injectable solutions that are ready for use or are prepared by the dilution of a freeze-dried product but are preferably solid or semisolid as tablets, capsules, granules, powders, pellets, pessaries, suppositories, creams, salves, gels, ointments; or solutions, suspensions, emulsions, or other forms suitable for administration by the transdermal route or by inhalation. The compounds of the invention can be administered for immediate-, delayed-, modified-, sustained-, pulsed-or controlled-release applications. In one aspect, oral compositions are slow, delayed or positioned release (e.g., enteric especially colonic release) tablets or capsules. This release profile can be achieved without limitation by use of a coating resistant to conditions within the stomach but releasing the contents in the colon or other portion of the GI tract wherein a site has been identified or a delayed release can be achieved by a coating that is simply slow to disintegrate or the two (delayed and positioned release) profiles can be combined in a single formulation by choice of one or more appropriate coatings and other excipients. Such formulations constitute a further feature of the present invention. Pharmaceutical compositions can be prepared by mixing a therapeutically effective amount of the active substance with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier that can have different forms, depending on the way of administration. Typically composition components include one or more of binders, fillers, lubricants, odorants, dyes, sweeteners, surfactants, preservatives, stabilizers and antioxidants. The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention may contain from 0.01 to 99% weight - per volume of the active material. The therapeutic doses will generally be between about 10 and 2000 mg/day and preferably between about 30 and 1500 mg/day. Other ranges may be used, including, for example, 50-500 mg/day, 50-300 mg/day, 100-200 mg/day. Administration may be once a day, twice a day, or more often, and may be decreased during a maintenance phase of the disease or disorder, e.g. once every second or third day instead of every day or twice a day. The dose and the administration frequency will depend on the clinical signs, which confirm maintenance of the remission phase, with the reduction or absence of at least one or more preferably more than one clinical signs of the acute phase known to the person skilled in the art. It is within the scope of the invention for a compound as described herein to be administered in combination with another pharmaceutical, e.g. another drug with known efficacy against the disease in question. The compounds of the invention may therefore be used in combination therapy. ‘In combination’ here means in parallel; the other agents may be administered before, during, or after administration of the compound/formulation of the invention. In particular, the compounds of the invention may be used in combination with other inhibitors with other targets, and other chemotherapeutic agents (cisplatin, taxol etc) used to treat cancerous diseases. Also within the scope of the invention is the combination of the compounds of the invention with monoclonal antibodies. In a particular embodiment, the compound of the invention is administered in combination with radiotherapy. ‘In combination’ here again means in parallel; the radiotherapy may be administered before, during, or after administration of the compound/formulation of the invention.

The assay is based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). In the primary reaction, the kinase transfers the gamma- phosphate of ATP to a single tyrosine residue in a synthetic FRET-peptide. In the secondary reaction, a site-specific protease recognizes and cleaves non- phosphorylated FRET-peptides. Thus, phosphorylation of FRET-peptides suppresses cleavage by the development reagent. Cleavage disrupts FRET between the donor (i.e. coumarin) and acceptor (i.e., fluorescein) fluorophores on the FRET-peptide, whereas uncleaved, phosphorylated FRET-peptides maintain FRET. A ratiometric method, which calculates the ratio (the emission ratio) of donor emission to acceptor emission after excitation of the donor fluorophore at 400 nm, is used to quantitate inhibition. All compounds were first tested for their inhibitory activity at 500 nM in duplicates. The potency observed at 500 nM was used to set starting point of the IC50 titration curve, in which three levels were used 1000 or 10000 nM. The IC50 values reported are based on the average of at least 2 titration curves (minimum 20 data points), and were calculated from activity data with a four parameter logistic model using SigmaPlot (Windows Version 12.0 from Systat Software, Inc.) Unless stated otherwise the ATP concentration used was equal to Km (ca 10 mM). Effect of CSF1R inhibitors on MAPK signalling in mouse bone-marrow derived macrophages Bone-marrow derived macrophages were obtained by flushing the femur and tibia of sacrificed mice with HBSS (Hanks’ balanced salt solution) using a syringe with a 25G needle. The cells were centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 8 minutes, the resulting supernatant was decanted, and the cells resuspended in 5 mL RBC (red blood cell) lysis buffer. Lysis was stopped by adding 30 ml medium containing 10 % FCS (Fetal Calf Serum).The cells were centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 8 minutes. The supernatant was decanted, and the cells resuspended in RPMI medium gentamycin, 2 mM glutamine, 10% FCS) with 10 ng/mL CSF-1 (colony stimulating factor 1). The cells were seeded in bacteria plates. After two days, fresh medium with 10 ng/mL CSF-1 was added and after another two days, 50% of the medium was replaced with fresh medium containing 10 ng/mL CSF-1 while the other 50% is centrifuged to get rid of dead cells before being transferred back to the cells. After incubating for one week, the differentiated cells were washed twice with PBS, added PBS EDTA (0.2 mM) and incubated for 10 minutes. Cells were detached by scraping and centrifuged at 1200 rpm for 7 minutes. The supernatant was decanted, and the cells resuspended in RPMI medium (10% FCS, 10 ng/ml CSF-1, x gentamycin, 2 mM L-glutamine). The cells were seeded out in 96-well glass bottom plates (Cellvis) at 50.000 cells in 100 µL per well and incubated at 37 °C overnight. The medium was removed, and the cells washed three times with PBS before being starved overnight in 0.1% FCS medium without CSF-1. CSF-1 inhibitors dissolved in DMSO, was added to the wells in appropriate concentrations and incubated for 30 minutes at 37 °C. DMSO was added to control wells at the highest inhibitor concentration. CSF-1 (0.1 mg/mL) was added to all wells except the CSF-1 negative control to obtain an end concentration of CSF-1 of 10 ng/mL. After incubating for another 10 minutes at 37 °C, the cells were fixed by adding PFA (paraformaldehyde) (16%) to obtain an end concentration of 4% for 10 minutes. The cells was washed twice with TBS, and permabilized by MeOH for 10 minutes on ice. The cells were washed twice with TBS and blocked in Odyssey blocking solution (Licor, #927-60001) diluted 1:1 in TBS-Tween (0,1 %) for 1.5 hours under careful agitation. The blocking solution was removed and the wells added appropriately diluted primary antibody solution (P-MAPK (ERK1/2, Thr202/Tyr204) (CST, #4370, rabbit) 1:1200 and MAPK (ERK1/2), (Biolegend, #686902, rat) 1:300 in in Odyssey blocking buffer:TBS-Tween (1:1)). After incubating overnight with careful shaking at 4 °C, the cells were washed with TBST 5 times for 5 minutes while agitating. Secondary antibody solution was added, and the wells were incubated for 1 hour in the dark Rdye 800CW goat anti-rabbit and IRdye 680RD goat anti-rat diluted 1:800 in Odyssey blocking buffer:TBS-Tween (1:1)). The antibody solution was removed, and the wells were washed 4 x 5 minutes with TBST and 2 x 5 minutes with TBS while carefully agitating. The TBS was removed and the plate was scanned on a Licor Odyssey scanner. Using Image Studio software, the intensity of fluorescence of each well is recorded after subtracting the background noise (wells not added primary antibody). The results were normalized by dividing the P-MAPK intensity with total MAPK intensity for all the wells. The average value of triplicate wells was calculated for every concentration of inhibitor used. The average values are then divided by the CSF-1 positive control value. PLX3397 was included as a reference on all plates. Due to some inter-assay variation the activity of the inhibitors is reported as fold change relative to PLX3397 (Fold change: IC50.inhibitor/IC50 PLX3397) Synthesis and spectroscopic data Intermediates 4-Chloro-6-iodo-7-((2-(trimethylsilyl)-ethoxy)methyl)-7H-pyr rolo[2,3- d]pyrimidine (2) Under a N2 atmosphere, 4-chloro-7-((2-(trimethylsilyl)-ethoxy)methyl)-7H- pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (5.00 g, 17.6 mmol) was dissolved in dry THF (70 mL) and cooled down to -78 °C.
