Description
[00002] This application is a 371 of PCT/US00/33273, filed Dec. 18, 2000 which claims the benefit of Ser. No. 60/171,087, filed Dec. 16, 1999 and Ser. No. 60/171,220, filed Dec. 16, 1999.
[00003] Cancer is a heterogeneous group of diseases presenting in various forms in various tissues but having in common the characteristic of uncontrolled cell proliferation. For some time, cancer has been recognized as a disease of uncontrolled cell proliferation. Thus, the rapidly proliferating cell has been the target of cancer chemotherapy. The goal is to find agents that are more effective against cancer cells than against normal cells. As the basic science of the cell progressed, it was shown that certain anticancer agents were more effective against malignant cells at certain stages of the cell cycle than against cells at other stages of the cell cycle.
[00004] Attempts were made to develop treatment regimens that took advantage of these observations (SHACKNEY, S. E. et al Cell Kinetics. IN: Bruce Chabner (ed.), Pharmacologic Principles of Cancer Treatment; W. B. Saunder Company: Philadelphia, pp. 45-76, (1982)). Cell replication is now recognized to be controlled by the transient, sequential, highly-regulated expression of a series of cyclins which associate with specific cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK's) (TAULES, M., et al, J. Biol. Chem. 273, 33279-33286 (1998; FISHER, R. P. Current Opinion in Genetics & Develop. 7, 32-38 (1997); ARELLANO, M. et al., Int. J. Biochem. Cell Biol. 29, 559-573 (1997); and RAVITZ, M. J., et al. Adv. Cancer Res. 1997, 165-207 (1997)). These are serine/threonine protein kinases, which activate various enzymes and thereby initiate a cascade of phosphorylations allowing the cell to progress to the next stage of replication (COLLINS, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 94, 2776-2778 (1997); JACKS, T. et al., Science 280, 1035-1036 (1998)).
[00005] It has been found that cancerous cells often have mutated or missing components in the chain of proteins and enzymes, which control cell division. For example, the Rb protein, often called pRb, is a substrate for the cyclin-CDK's and is frequently missing or mutated in human tumors (KONSTANTINIDIS, A. K. et al, J. Biol. Chem. 273, 26506-26515 (1998); HARRINGTON, E. A., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 95, 11945-11950 (1998); YAMAMOTO, et al., Oncol. Rep. 5, 447-451 (1997); BARTEK, J., et al., Exp. Cell Res. 237, 1-6 (1997); SELLERS, et al., J. Clin. Oncol. 15, 3301-3312 (1997); HERWIG, S. et al., Eur. J. Biochem. 246, 581-601 (1997)).
[00006] In addition to the kinases, which can help to move the cell from one phase of division to the next, there are CDK inhibitors (CKIs) that block the actions of specific cyclin-CDK complexes. The CKIs halt cell cycle progression and cause cells to enter the quiescent Go phase. The CKIs of the INK4 group, including p15, p16, p18, and p19, block the cyclin-CDK4 and cyclin-CDK6 complexes.
[00007] Calmodulin is essential for cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) activity and nuclear accumulation of cyclin D1-CDK4 during the G1 phase (TAULES, M., et al, J. Biol. Chem. 273, 33279-33286 (1998)). CDKs and cyclins are important in transition(s) (FISHER, R. P. Current Opinion in Genetics & Develop. 7, 32-38 (1997)). CDK/cyclin complexes are regulated during the cell cycle (ARELLANO, M. et al., Int. J. Biochem. Cell Biol. 29, 559-573 (1997)). Cyclin-dependent kinase during the G1 phase, and the cell cycle generally are regulated by TGF-β (RAVITZ, M. J., et al. Adv. Cancer Res. 1997, 165-207 (1997)).
[00008] The most frequent alteration in human malignant disease thus far recognized is the overexpression, mutation, and/or disregulation of cyclin D (IMOTO, M., et al., Exp. Cell Res. 236, 173-180 (1997); JUAN, G., et al., Cell Prolif. 29, 259-266 (1996); GONG, J. et al., Cell Prolif. 28, 337-346 (1995) et al., 1995). The cyclin D1 gene, CCND1, is amplified in about 20% of breast cancers and the protein, cyclin D1, is overexpressed in about 50% of breast cancers (BARNES, D. M. et al., Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 52, 1-15 (1998); KAMALATI, T., et al., Clin. Exp. Metastasis 16, 415-426 (1998); STEEG, P. S. et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 52, 17-28 (1998); LANDBERG, G. et al., APMIS 105, 575-589 (1997); ALLE, et al., Clin. Cancer Res. 4, 847-854 (1998)). Overexpression of cyclin D1 has been reported in proliferative breast disease and in ductal carcinoma in situ, indicating that this change is important at the earliest stages of breast oncogenesis (ALLE, et al., Clin. Cancer Res. 4, 847-854 (1998); STEEG, et al., Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 52, 17-28 (1998)).
[00009] One researcher (KAMALATI, T., et al., Clin. Exp. Metastasis 16, 415-426 (1998) et al. (1998)) treated normal human epithelial cells so that they overexpressed cyclin D1. These transfected cells had reduced growth factor dependency, a shortened cell cycle time, thus providing the cells with a growth advantage. In 123 colorectal carcinoma specimens, those staining strongly for cyclin D1 corresponded to patients with a 5-year survival rate of 53.3% while those that were negative or weakly staining had 5-year survival rates of 96.2 and 78.8% (MEEDA, K., et al., Oncology 55, 145-151 (1998); PALMQVIST, R., et al., Europ. J. Cancer 34, 1575-1581 (1998)).
[00010] Amplification of CCND1 was found in 25% of dysplastic head-and-neck lesions, and 22% of head-and-neck carcinomas. Overexpression of cyclin D1 was found in 53% of head-and-neck carcinomas. This indicates that in this disease, like breast cancer, alterations in cyclin D1 occur at the very earliest stages of tumorigenesis (KYOMOTO, R., et al., Int. J. Cancer (Pred. Oncol.) 74, 576-581 (1997); PIGNATARO, L., et al., J. Clin. Oncol. 16, 3069-3077 (1998) et al., 1998). In a study of 218 specimens of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, patients with cyclin D1-positive tumors had significantly worse survival than patients with cyclin D1-negative tumors (SARBIA, M. et al., Int. J. Cancer (Pred. Oncol. 84, 86-91 (1999)).
[00011] In eight human esophageal carcinoma cell lines, 7 (87.5%) and 6 (75%) cell lines had homozygous deletions of the p16 and p15 genes (KITAHARA, K. et al., J. Exp. Therap. Oncol. 1, 7-12 (1996)). All of the p16-negative cell lines express high levels of cyclin D1 and CDK4.
[00012] The Rustgi laboratory (MUELLER, A, et al., Cancer Res. 57, 5542-5549 (1997); NAKAGAWA, H, et al., Oncogene 14, 1185-1190 (1997)) developed a transgenic mouse which the Epstein-Barr virus ED-L2 promoter was linked to human cyclin D1 cDNA. The transgene protein localizes to squamous epithelium in the tongue and esophagus, resulting in a dysplastic phenotype associated with increased cell proliferation and indicating that cyclin D1 overexpression may be a tumor-initiating event. In a series of 84 specimens of soft-tissue sarcomas, there was no amplification of the CCND1 gene but there was overexpression of cyclin D1 in 29% of cases. The overexpression of cyclin D1 was significantly associated with worse overall survival (KIM, S. H., et al., Clin. Cancer Res. 4, 2377-2382 (1998); YAO, J., et al., Clin. Cancer Res. 4, 1065-1070 (1998)).
[00013] Another researcher (MARCHETTI, A., et al., Int. J. Cancer 75, 187-192 (1998)) found that abnormalities of cyclin D1 and/or Rb at the gene and/or expression level were present in more than 90% of a series of non-small cell lung cancer specimens, indicating that cyclin D1 and/or Rb alterations represent an important step in lung tumorigenesis. In 49 out of 50 pancreatic carcinomas (98%), the Rb/p16 pathway was abrogated exclusively through inactivation of the p16 gene (SCHUTTE, M., et al., Cancer Res. 57, 3126-3130 (1997)).
[00014] Mantle cell lymphoma is defined as a subentity of malignant lymphomas characterized by the chromosomal translocation t(11;14)(q13;q32) resulting in overexpression of cyclin D1 and, in addition, about 50% of these tumors have deletion of the p16 gene (DREYLING, M. H., et al., Cancer Res. 57, 4608-4614 (1997); TANIGUCHI, T., et al., Jpn. J. Cancer Res. 89, 159-166 (1998)).
[00015] In a series of 17 hepatoblastomas, 76% showed overexpression of cyclin D1 and 88% showed overexpression of CDK4 (KIM, H., et al., Cancer Lett. 131, 177-183 (1998)). There was a correlation between high level cyclin D1 expression and tumor recurrence. Alterations in the cyclin D1/CDK4/pRb pathway have also been associated with a high percentage of prostate carcinomas (HAN, E. K. H., et al., The Prostate 35, 95-101 (1998)), ovarian carcinomas (MASCIULLO, V., et al., Int. J. Cancer Pred. Oncol. 74, 390-395 (1997)) and osteosarcomas (WEI, G., et al., Int. J. Cancer 80, 199-204 (1999) et al., 1999).
[00016] Six distinct classes of small molecules from natural products have been identified as inhibitors of CDKs: the purine-based compound olomoucine and analogs, butyrolactone, flavopiridol, staurosporine and UCN-01, suramin and 9-hydroxyellipticine (CARLSON et al., Cancer Res. 56, 2973-2978 (1996); DE AZEVEDO, et al., Eur. J. Biochem. 243, 518-526 (1997); BRIDGES, A. J. Exp. Opin. Ther. Patents 5, 1245-1257 (1995); ORR, M. S., et al., REINHOLD, W., et al., J. Biol. Chem. 278, 3803-3807 (1998) et al., 1998; KAKEYA, H., et al., Cancer Res. 58, 704-710 (1998); HARPER, J. W. Cancer Surveys 29, 91-107 (1997); HARRINGTON, E. A., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 95, 11945-11950 (1998); GARRETT, M. D. et al., Current Opin. Genetics Develop. 9, 104-111 (1999); MGBONYEBI, O. P., et al., Cancer Res. 59, 1903-1910 (1999)). All of these molecules bind at the ATP-binding site of the enzyme and are competitive with ATP.
[00017] Olomoucine is an inhibitor of Cdc2, CDK2, CDK5 and MAP kinase in micromolar concentrations and has much weaker effects toward CDK4 and CDK6 (GARRETT, M. D. Current Opin. Genetics Develop. 9, 104-111 (1999)). Olomoucine has been reported to arrest several cell lines in G1 and G2 phases of the cell cycle and block known CDK-dependent cellular activities.
[00018] Flavopiridol, a novel synthetic flavone, potently inhibits several cyclin-dependent kinases including CDK1, CDK2, CDK4 and CDK7 (SEDLACEK, H. H., et al., Int. J. Cancer 65, 1143-1168 (1996); CZECH, J., et al., Int. J. Oncol. 6, 31-36 (1995); BIBLE, K. C. et al., Cancer Res. 56, 4856-4861 (1996); SCHRUMP, D. S., et al., Clin. Cancer Res. 4, 2885-2890 (1998); BRUSSELBACH, S., et al., Int. J. Cancer, 77, 146-152 (1998); JAGER, W., et al., Life Sciences 62, 1861-1873 (1998); SENDEROWICZ, A. M., et al., J. Clin. Oncol. 16, 2986-2999 (1998)). Exposure to flavopiridol can cause cells to arrest in both the G1 and G2 phases of the cell cycle, at concentrations similar to those required for cell growth inhibition (BIBLE, K. C. et al., Cancer Res. 56, 4856-4861 (1996); SCHRUMP, D. S., et al., Clin. Cancer Res. 4, 2885-2890 (1998)). Flavopiridol inhibits the CDK's in a manner competitive with ATP and noncompetitive with the substrate. Flavopiridol also inhibits other protein kinases such as protein kinase C, protein kinase A, and EGFR but at concentrations of 10 μM/L or greater. Flavopiridol is an active antitumor agent in several human tumor xenograft models including Colo-205 colon carcinoma, and DU-145 and LNCaP prostate carcinomas (SEDLACEK, H. H., et al., Int. J. Cancer 65, 1143-1168 (1996); CZECH, J., et al., Int. J. Oncol. 6, 31-36 (1995)). Flavopiridol has shown completed. Phase I clinical trial administered as a 72-hour continuous intravenous infusion every 2 weeks (SENDEROWICZ, A. M., et al., J. Clin. Oncol. 16, 2986-2999 (1998), and phase II trials are underway.
[00019] Much has already been published on the antineoplastic properties of certain compounds such as bisindolylmaleimides, indolocarbazoles, and derivations thereof. Staurosporine and UCN-01 are members of this broad molecular class (COLEMAN, K. G., et al., Ann. Reps. Med. Chem. 32, 171-179 (1997)). For example, U.S. Pat. No. 5,856,517 discloses substituted pyrroles, which are useful as antiproliferative agents in the treatment of cancer. U.S. Pat. No. 5,292,747 discloses substituted pyrroles useful in the prevention or control of oncological disorders. U.S. Pat. No. 5,721,245 discloses indolylpyrrolones useful in controlling oncological disorders. U.S. Pat. No. 5,438,050 (Godecke) discloses indolocarbazole derivatives useful in the prevention and treatment of cancer. U.S. Pat. No. 5,705,511 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,591,855 discloses fused pyrrolocarbazoles for the inhibition of growth associated with hyperproliferative states.
[00020] In addition to the kinases, which control the cell division cycle, there are over several hundred other kinases found in the human body. These kinases perform such diverse functions as growth factor and cytokine signal transduction, inflammatory mediators, biochemical routes controlling activity of nuclear transcription factors and apoptotic pathways. In treating proliferative diseases, it is particularly desirable to use a kinase inhibitor with a relatively narrow activity. Anti-cancer agents are generally given at high doses in order to kill as many cancerous cells as possible. With such high dosing, side effects due to broad kinase inhibition can become a serious problem. Accordingly, to treat proliferative diseases, it is desirable to use kinase inhibitors that are relatively selective for kinases controlling cell division.

More specifically, amino acids contain up to ten carbon atoms. They may contain an additional carboxyl group, and heteroatoms such as nitrogen and sulfur. Preferably the amino acids are α- and β-amino acids. The term α-amino acid refers to amino acids in which the amino group is attached to the carbon directly attached to the carboxyl group, which is the α-carbon. The term β-amino acid refers to amino acids in which the amino group is attached to a carbon two removed from the carboxyl group, which is the β-carbon. Some common α-amino acid residues are shown in Table I wherein the residues are given the name of the amino acids from which they are derived.

[00114] The compounds of Formula I are useful for the treatment of disorders of mammals, and the preferred mammal is a human.
[00115] The skilled artisan will appreciate that the introduction of certain substituents will create asymmetry in the compounds of Formula I. The present invention contemplates all enantiomers and mixtures of enantiomers, including racemates. It is preferred that the compounds of the invention containing chiral centers are single enantiomers.
[00116] Variables R2, R3, R5, R6 and R7 may optionally be selected from specified groups. A preferred embodiment of the invention are those compounds where no substituent is selected from said groups.
[00117] The carbazoles, compounds of Formula I where X and Y taken together form a bond, are prepared by oxidation of the corresponding maleimide, compounds of Formula I where X and Y are each hydrogen. This oxidative step is illustrated in Scheme I, where the ring designated “A” corresponds to the annulated rings of Formula I. The skilled artisan will appreciate that the transformations illustrated in the following schemes are not limited to the unsubstituted compounds represented. Substituents have been eliminated in the following schemes for the sake of clarity, and are not intended to limit the teaching of the schemes in any way.
[00118] This transformation may be prepared by a number of methods. For example, the maleimide of formula (ii) in an appropriate solvent, such as acetic acid, may be treated with a palladium salt such as palladium dichloride, palladium bis(trifluoroacetate), or preferably palladium diacetate. The reaction is conducted at a temperature of about 60° C. to about reflux, and the mixture is stirred for 1-24 hours. The resulting carbazole of formula (i) is recovered by standard isolation techniques and may be purified by chromatography or recrystallization as necessary or desired.
[00119] Alternatively, a mixture of a maleimide of formula (ii) in a suitable solvent, such as benzene and an acid, such as para-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate, and 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) is stirred at about reflux for 1-6 hours, after which the mixture is allowed to cool to about ambient temperature and stirred for an additional 1-24 hours. The resulting carbazole of formula (i) is isolated and purified by standard techniques.
[00120] Furthermore, a maleimide of formula (ii) and iodine in a suitable solvent, such as dioxane, may be reacted via irradiation by a medium-pressure mercury lamp. The reaction mixture is irradiated for about 10 minutes to about 24 hours. The resulting carbazole formula (i) may be isolated and purified by standard techniques.
[00121] The requisite maleimides of formula (ii) may be prepared from an appropriately substituted oxoacetic acid ester and an appropriately substituted acetamide as illustrated in Scheme II, where the ring designated “A” corresponds to the annulated rings of Formula I.
[00122] The oxoacetic acid esters of formula (iii) or (vi) are reacted with an acetamide of formula (iv) or (v), respectively, in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, in the presence of a suitable base, preferably potassium tert-butoxide. The condensation reaction is conducted at 0° C. or room temperature, and the reactants are stirred for 1-24 hours. The reaction mixture is treated with a suitable acid, such as hydrochloric acid, after which the mixture is stirred at about ambient temperature for 1-24 hours. The resulting maleimide (ii) may be isolated by standard techniques, and purified by crystallization or chromatography as necessary or desired.
[00123] The requisite indolylacetamides of formula (iv) are either commercially available or may be prepared from the corresponding oxoacetic acid of formula (vi) by reaction with ammonium hydroxide in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran or diethyl ether. The reaction is conducted at about 0° C. for 1-12 hours, after which the reaction mixture is allowed to warm to about ambient temperature. The resulting ketoamide may be isolated by standard techniques and purified by crystallization or chromatography as necessary or desired. This ketoamide is then reduced by reaction with a metal catalyst, such as palladium, and sodium hypophosphite in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, or dimethylformamide. The reaction is conducted under nitrogen at about reflux conditions for 1-12 hours. The resulting indolylacetamide of formula (iv) is isolated by standard techniques and may be purified by crystallization or chromatography as necessary or desired.
[00124] The indolyloxoacetic acid esters of formula (vi) are either commercially available or may be prepared by reacting an appropriately substituted indole with oxalyl chloride in an appropriate solvent, such as dichloromethane or diethyl ether. The addition is performed at a temperature of about 0° C., and the mixture is stirred for 1-24 hrs. The mixture is then cooled to about −78° C. and than a source of alkoxide, such as sodium methoxide, is added in an appropriate solvent, such as methanol. The resulting oxoacetic acid ester may be isolated by standard techniques and purified by crystallization or chromatography as necessary or desired.
[00125] The requisite indoles are either commercially available or may be prepared by methods well known in the art. Indole syntheses are described in Robinson, The Fischer Indole Synthesis, Wiley, N.Y. (1983); Hamel, et al., Journal of Organic Chemistry, 59, 6372 (1994); and Russell, et al., Organic Preparations and Procedures International, 17, 391 (1985).
[00126] The annulated-indole oxoacetic acid esters (iii) and annulated-indole acetamides (v) may be similarly prepared from the corresponding annulated-indoles of formula (vii):
where the ring designated “A” corresponds to the annulated ring in Formula I. These annulated-indoles (vii), annulated-indole oxoacetic acid esters (iii), and annulated-indole acetamides (iv) are further embodiments of the present invention.
where the ring designated “A” corresponds to the annulated ring in Formula I. These annulated-indoles (vii), annulated-indole oxoacetic acid esters (iii), and annulated-indole acetamides (iv) are further embodiments of the present invention.
[00128] The requisite annulated-indoles are prepared by a variety of methods depending upon the specific structure of the ring system. Synthetic methodologies leading to the various annulated-indoles are illustrated in the following schemes and discussed in the following paragraphs. The preparations and examples further illustrate these basic routes as well modifications to these routes to prepare certain requisite substituted variants.

The product from this reaction is isolated by standard techniques and is then reacted with an appropriate magnesium halide, typically magnesium chloride, and an appropriate alcohol such as methoxyethanol in an appropriate cosolvent, such as tetrahydrofuran or dimethylformamide. The skilled artisan will appreciate that the addition must be performed slowly and carefully, after which the resulting reaction mixture is stirred for 1-12 hours at about reflux.

This reaction is conducted under nitrogen at about ambient temperature in the presence of a mild reducing agent, such as sodium cyanoborohydride or sodium triacetoxyborohydride. The reaction mixture is stirred for about 24 hours, and the resulting amino ester is isolated by standard techniques.

The secondary amine moiety is now reacted with an appropriate reagent to introduce a suitable amino protecting group “Pg”, such as a formyl group, acetyl group, or preferably a tert-butoxycarbonyl moeity. Techniques for the introduction of these groups are well known to the skilled artisan. A solution of this compound in an appropriate solvent, such as dichloromethane or diethyl ether, is reacted with an appropriate reagent to activate the hydroxy moiety, providing a leaving group (“Lg”). The skilled artisan would appreciate that appropriate leaving groups include halides, oxonium ions, alkyl perchlorates, ammonioalkanesulfonate esters, alkyl fluorosulfonates, nonaflates, tresylates, triflates, and sulfonic esters, preferably the mesylate or tosylate. Techniques for the introduction of these groups are well known to the skilled artisan. (See for example: March, “Advanced Organic Chemistry,” John Wiley and Sons, New York, N.Y., 1992, pg. 352-362). The activated compound is then dissolved in an appropriate solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, diethyl ether or N,N-dimethylformamide and is reacted with a strong base, such as potassium hydride or sodium hydride. The reaction is conducted under nitrogen at about 0° C. and stirred for 30-120 minutes. The compound of formula (xii) is isolated and purified by standard techniques. The skilled artisan will appreciate that the nitrogen-protecting groups may be removed at any convenient point in the synthesis of the compounds of the present invention. Methods of removing an amino-protecting group are well known in the art (for example, see: T. W. Greene, “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis,” John Wiley and Sons, New York, N.Y., 1991, Chapter 7).

[00140] An appropriately substituted indole-7-carboxaldehyde in an appropriate solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran or toluene, is reacted with a suitable methylenating reagent at about ambient temperature. Suitable methylenating reagents include Tebbe reagent (μ-chloro-μ-methylene[bis(cyclopentadienyl)titanium]dimethylaluminum) and appropriate Wittig reagents, such as methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide, in the presence as a suitable base, such as potassium tert-butoxide. The reaction mixture is stirred for 1-6 hours, after which the resultant vinylindole is isolated under standard techniques. This compound is then hydroborated and oxidized under standard conditions to provide the corresponding hydroxyethylindole. This alcohol is then activated as previously described, and reacted with ethanolamine or an appropriate amino acid ester. When aminoethanol is employed, the resulting alcohol is activated and the compound cyclized as previously described. When an amino acid ester is employed, the resulting ester is first reduced, and then activated and the compound cyclized as previously described to provide compounds of formula (xiii).

The mixture is stirred at room temperature for about 24 hours and the resulting amine is isolated and purified by standard techniques. The amine is then protected as previously described and the indole nitrogen alkylated with allyl bromide under standard conditions. The diene is then cyclized as previously described to provide the cyclic alkene. The double bond may then be reduced under standard hydrogenation conditions to provide the compounds of formula (xv).
[00145] The skilled artisan will appreciate that compounds of the invention where variables A and B are independently S may be prepared by treating either the final compound or an appropriate carbonyl starting material with [2,4-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3-dithia-2,4-diphosphetane-2,4-disulfide] (Lawesson's Reagent) or phosphorus pentasulfide.
[00146] Many of the compounds of the present invention are not only inhibitors of CDK4, but are also useful intermediates for the preparation of additional compounds of the present invention. For example, secondary amines may be acylated, alkylated or coupled with simple carboxylic acids or amino acids under standard conditions. Furthermore, ester moieties may be reduced to the corresponding alcohols. These alcohols may then be activated and displaced by a number of nucleophiles to provide other compounds of the invention. The skilled artisan will also appreciate that not all of the substituents in the compounds of Formula I will tolerate certain reaction conditions employed to synthesize the compounds. These moieties may be introduced at a convenient point in the synthesis, or may be protected and then deprotected as necessary or desired. Furthermore, the skilled artisan will appreciate that in many circumstances, the order in which moieties are introduced is not critical. The following preparations and examples will further illustrate the preparation of compounds of the present invention.

The mixture was then poured into 500 mL of cold water and stirred. The resulting suspension was filtered and the filter cake was rinsed with water and dried. This solid was then dissolved in 146 mL methanol and the resulting solution was treated with 7.2 mL of 1.5 N sodium hydroxide in methanol. After stirring for 6 hours at room temperature the resulting suspension was filtered and the recovered solid dissolved in dichloromethane. The resulting solution was washed sequentially with dilute hydrochloric acid, water, and saturated aqueous sodium chloride. The remaining organic phase was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel chromatography, eluting with dichloromethane containing ethanol. Fractions containing product were combined and concentrated under reduced pressure to provide the title compound.

[01215] The ability of CDK4 inhibitors to treat proliferative disorders is illustrated by the following assays.
Cell Growth Inhibition Assay
[01216] The MTT assay was used to measure growth inhibitory activity (Schultz, R. M., et. al. Oncology Res. 5, 223-228, 1993). The IC50 was determined as the concentration of drug required to inhibit cell growth by 50% over 72 h of drug exposure. Basically, 1000 HCT-116 or NCI H460 cells were added per well to 96-well flat-bottom plates in 100-ul RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% dialyzed fetal bovine serum. The plates were incubated for 24 h prior to addition of test compounds. A stock solution (10 mM) was prepared in DMSO and serially diluted in medium. Compound dilutions were added to triplicate wells, and the plates were incubated for 72 hours. The compound of. Example 52 was tested in this assay and was found to inhibit cell growth.
Cell Cycle Analysis Using Flow Cytometry
[01217] The HCT-116 and NCI H460 cell lines were seeded in 75 cm2 flasks at 5×105 cells/25 ml RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% dialyzed fetal bovine serum. They were incubated for 24 hours. Compound is then added at 1×IC50 and 3×IC50 (determined from above section “growth inhibition studies”) and incubated for an additional 24 hours. The cells were subsequently harvested and the protocol (Robinson, J. P. and Darzynkiewicz, Z. Current Protocols in Cytometry. 1997) for staining was followed. DNA histogram analysis was performed using ModFit LT (Verity House). The coumpound of Example 52 was tested in this assay and was found to arrest cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle.
Inhibition of Rb Phosphorylation Assay
[01218] Human HCT116 colon carcinoma cell line was purchased from American Tissue Culture Collection (Rockville, Md.) and maintained as monolayer in RPMI-1640 with L-Glutamine and 25 mM HEPES supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum in a 37° C. incubator with a 10% CO2 atmosphere. The detection of mycoplasm in cultured cells was performed using Mycoplasma Rapid Detection System (TaKaRa Shuzo Co. Ltd., Shiga, Japan) every 2-3 months and the cells were found consistently negative throughout these experiments. The Rb phosphorylation assay was done be plating 4×105 cells/well in 6-well plates. After 24 hours, exponentially growing HCT116 cells were treated with compounds at 1×, 2× and 3×IC50 (as determined by MMT assay) or DMSO in complete medium for 24 hours. At the end of the incubation period the mediumj was removed and the cells were washed twice with cold PBS containing 1 mM sodium orthovanadate (Na3VO4). Cellular protein lysates were prepared by adding freshly prepared 50 uL/well lysis buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 1% Triton X-100, 5 mM EDTA, 50 mM NaCl, 10 mM sodim pyrophospate, 50 mM sodium fluoride, 1 mM Na3VO4, 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, 10 ug/mL Aprotinin, 10 ug/mL Leupeptin, and 10 ug/mL Pepstatin). The cell lysates were collected and incubated on ice for 30 min with frequent brief vortexing. Cellular debris was removed by centrifugation at 14000×g for 10 min at 4° C. Protein concentration was determined by the Bio-Rad DC protein assay (Bio-Rad, Hercules, Calif.). To analyze extracts, equal amounts of protein (30 ug) were dissolved in 1×Laemmli sample buffer, bioled for 5 min and resolved by electrophoresis on 10% polyacrylamide gels containing SDS. The proteins were transferred to Immobilon-P membrane (Millipore, Bedford, Mass.). Membranes were incubated with 5% non-fat dried milk in TBS-T (10 mM Tris-Cl, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, and 0.1% Tween-20) for 1 h at room temperature to block non-specific sites. Immunoblotting was done by incubating membranes with alpha-Phospho-Ser-780 pRb (1 ug/mL, New England Biolab, Beverly, Mass.) and alpha-actin (0.2 ug/mL) antibodies in TBS-T containing 5% non-fat dried milk for overnight at 4° C. Membranes were washed three times (15 min each) in TBS-T, and subsequently incubated for 2 hours at room temperature with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-rabbit (1:2000) and anti-mouse (1:1000) antibody (Amersham) in TBS-T. Membranes were washed three times (15 min each) with TBS-T, and incubated for 5 min in SuperSignal West Pico Chemiluminescent reagents (Pierce, Rockford Ill.). Proteins were detected by capturing image of the membrane using Quantity One Software on a Fluor-S multi-Imager (Bio-Rad, Hercules, Calif.) in a linear range. Specific bands were quantified using Quantity One Software. After correcting for variable loading using actin as a control, Ser-780 phosphorylated pRb protein levels in the drug treated samples were compared with that of cells treated with vehicle (DMSO). Results are expressed as a percentage inhibition of Ser-780 pRb phosphorylation in drug treated cells versus control DMSO treated cells. The compound of Example 52 was tested in this assay and was found to inhibit Rb (retinoblastoma protein) phosphorylation.
[01219] The compounds of this invention are bioavailable through several routes of administration including, but not limited to, oral, buccal, intravenous, subcutaneous, intranasal, intraocular, transdermal, rectal and by inhalation. Because compounds of this invention are potent CDK4 inhibitors, extremely low doses are required to maintain therapeutic levels.
[01220] While it is possible to administer a compound employed in the methods of this invention directly without any formulation, the compounds are usually administered in the form of pharmaceutical compositions comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and at least one active ingredient. These compositions can be administered by a variety of routes including oral, buccal, rectal, intranasal, transdermal, subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, and intranasal. Many of the compounds employed in the methods of this invention are effective as both injectable and oral compositions. Such compositions are prepared in a manner well known in the pharmaceutical art and comprise at least one active compound. See, e.g., Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, (16th ed. 1980).
[01221] In making the compositions employed in the present invention the active ingredient is usually mixed with an excipient, diluted by an excipient or enclosed within such a carrier which can be in the form of a capsule, sachet, paper or other container. When the excipient serves as a diluent, it can be a solid, semi-solid, or liquid material, which acts as a vehicle, carrier or medium for the active ingredient. Thus, the compositions can be in the form of tablets, pills, powders, lozenges, sachets, cachets, elixirs, suspensions, emulsions, solutions, syrups, aerosols (as a solid or in a liquid medium), ointments containing for example up to 10% by weight of the active compound, soft and hard gelatin capsules, suppositories, sterile injectable solutions, and sterile packaged powders.
[01222] In preparing a formulation, it may be necessary to mill the active compound to provide the appropriate particle size prior to combining with the other ingredients. If the active compound is substantially insoluble, it ordinarily is milled to a particle size of less than 200 mesh. If the active compound is substantially water soluble, the particle size is normally adjusted by milling to provide a substantially uniform distribution in the formulation, e.g. about 40 mesh.
[01223] Some examples of suitable excipients include lactose, dextrose, sucrose, sorbitol, mannitol, starches, gum acacia, calcium phosphate, alginates, tragacanth, gelatin, calcium silicate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, cellulose, water, syrup, and methyl cellulose. The formulations can additionally include: lubricating agents such as talc, magnesium stearate, and mineral oil; wetting agents; emulsifying and suspending agents; preserving agents such as methyl- and propylhydroxybenzoates; sweetening agents; and flavoring agents. The compositions of the invention can be formulated so as to provide quick, sustained or delayed release of the active ingredient after administration to the patient by employing procedures known in the art.
[01224] The compositions are preferably formulated in a unit dosage form, each dosage containing from about 0.001 to about 100 mg, more usually about 1.0 to about 30 mg, of the active ingredient. The term “unit dosage form” refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages for human subjects and other mammals, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect, in association with a suitable pharmaceutical excipient.
[01225] The active compounds are generally effective over a wide dosage range. For examples, dosages per day normally fall within the range of about 0.0001 to about 30 mg/kg of body weight. In the treatment of adult humans, the range of about 0.1 to about 15 mg/kg/day, in single or divided dose, is especially preferred. However, it will be understood that the amount of the compound actually administered will be determined by a physician, in the light of the relevant circumstances, including the condition to be treated, the chosen route of administration, the actual compound or compounds administered, the age, weight, and response of the individual patient, and the severity of the patient's symptoms, and therefore the above dosage ranges are not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. In some instances dosage levels below the lower limit of the aforesaid range may be more than adequate, while in other cases still larger doses may be employed without causing any harmful side effect, provided that such larger doses are first divided into several smaller doses for administration throughout the day.

Formulation Example 11
[01245] Sublingual or buccal tablets, each containing 10 mg of active ingredient, may be prepared as follows:
[00002]
| Quantity | ||
|---|---|---|
| Ingredient | Per Tablet | |
| Compound of Example 52 | 10.0 mg | |
| Glycerol | 210.5 mg | |
| Water | 143.0 mg | |
| Sodium Citrate | 4.5 mg | |
| Polyvinyl Alcohol | 26.5 mg | |
| Polyvinylpyrrolidone | 15.5 g | |
| Total | 410.0 mg | |
[01246] The glycerol, water, sodium citrate, polyvinyl alcohol, and polyvinylpyrrolidone are admixed together by continuous stirring and maintaining the temperature at about 90° C. When the polymers have gone into solution, the solution is cooled to about 50-55° C. and the medicament is slowly admixed. The homogenous mixture is poured into forms made of an inert material to produce a drug-containing diffusion matrix having a thickness of about 2-4 mm. This diffusion matrix is then cut to form individual tablets having the appropriate size.
[01247] Another preferred formulation employed in the methods of the present invention employs transdermal delivery devices (“patches”). Such transdermal patches may be used to provide continuous or discontinuous infusion of the compounds of the present invention in controlled amounts. The construction and use of transdermal patches for the delivery of pharmaceutical agents is well known in the art. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,023,252, issued Jun. 11, 1991, herein incorporated by reference. Such patches may be constructed for continuous, pulsatile, or on demand delivery of pharmaceutical agents.
[01248] Frequently, it will be desirable or necessary to introduce the pharmaceutical composition to the brain, either directly or indirectly. Direct techniques usually involve placement of a drug delivery catheter into the host's ventricular system to bypass the blood-brain barrier. One such implantable delivery system, used for the transport of biological factors to specific anatomical regions of the body, is described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,011,472, issued Apr. 30, 1991, which is herein incorporated by reference.
[01249] Indirect techniques, which are generally preferred, usually involve formulating the compositions to provide for drug latentiation by the conversion of hydrophilic drugs into lipid-soluble drugs or prodrugs. Latentiation is generally achieved through blocking of the hydroxy, carbonyl, sulfate, and primary amine groups present on the drug to render the drug more lipid soluble and amenable to transportation across the blood-brain barrier. Alternatively, the delivery of hydrophilic drugs may be enhanced by intra-arterial infusion of hypertonic solutions which can transiently open the blood-brain barrier.
[01250] The type of formulation employed for the administration of the compounds employed in the methods of the present invention may be dictated by the particular compounds employed, the type of pharmacokinetic profile desired from the route of administration and the compound(s), and the state of the patient.
