Definitions

  • This invention relates to novel thiophene compounds, the use of such compounds as inhibitors of protein kinase B (hereinafter PKB/Akt, PKB or Akt) activity and in the treatment of cancer and arthritis.
  • PKB/Akt, PKB or Akt protein kinase B
  • the present invention relates to thiophene containing compounds that are inhibitors of the activity of one or more of the isoforms of the serine/threonine kinase, Akt (also known as protein kinase B).
  • Akt serine/threonine kinase B
  • the present invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds and methods of using the instant compounds in the treatment of cancer and arthritis (Liu et al. Current Qpin. Pharmacology 3:317-22 (2003)).
  • Apoptosis (programmed cell death) plays essential roles in embryonic development and pathogenesis of various diseases, such as degenerative neuronal diseases, cardiovascular diseases and cancer.
  • PI3K phosphatidylinositol 3'-OH kinase
  • Akt/PKB pathway appears important for regulating cell survival/cell death (Kulik et al. MoI. Cell. Biol. 17:1595- 1606 (1997); Franke et al, Cell, 88:435-437 (1997); Kauffmann-Zeh et al. Nature 385:544-548 (1997) Hemmings Science, 275:628-630 (1997); Dudek et al., Science, 275:661-665 (1997)).
  • PI3K phosphatidylinositol 3'-OH kinase
  • PDGF platelet derived growth factor
  • NEF nerve growth factor
  • IGF-I insulin-like growth factor-1
  • Activated PI3K leads to the production of phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-triphosphate (Ptdlns (3,4,5)-P3), which in turn binds to, and promotes the activation of, the serine/ threonine kinase Akt, which contains a pleckstrin homology (PH)-domain (Franke et al Ce//, 81 :727-736 (1995); Hemmings Science, 277:534 (1997); Downward, Curr. Opin. Cell Biol. 10:262-267 (1998), Alessi et al., EMBO J. 15: 6541-6551 (1996)).
  • PH pleckstrin homology
  • PI3K or dominant negative Akt/PKB mutants abolish survival-promoting activities of these growth factors or cytokines. It has been previously disclosed that inhibitors of PI3K (LY294002 or wortmannin) blocked the activation of Akt/PKB by upstream kinases. In addition, introduction of constitutively active PI3K or Akt/PKB mutants promotes cell survival under conditions in which cells normally undergo apoptotic cell death (Kulik et al. 1997, Dudek et al. 1997).
  • Akt2 is overexpressed in a significant number of ovarian (J. Q. Cheung et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 89:9267-9271 (1992)) and pancreatic cancers (J. Q. Cheung et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 93:3636-3641 (1996)).
  • Akt3 was found to be overexpressed in breast and prostate cancer cell lines (Nakatani et al. J. Biol.Chem. 274:21528- 21532 (1999).
  • Akt-2 was over-expressed in 12% of ovarian carcinomas and that amplification of Akt was especially frequent in 50% of undifferentiated tumors, suggestion that Akt may also be associated with tumor aggressiveness (Bellacosa, et al., Int. J. Cancer, 64, pp. 280-285, 1995). Increased Akt1 kinase activity has been reported in breast, ovarian and prostate cancers (Sun et al. Am. J. Pathol. 159: 431-7 (2001 )).
  • the tumor suppressor PTEN a protein and lipid phosphatase that specifically removes the 3' phosphate of Ptdlns(3,4,5)-P3, is a negative regulator of the PI3K/Akt pathway (Li et al. Science 275:1943-1947 (1997), Stambolic et al. Cell 95:29-39 (1998), Sun et al. Proc. Nati. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 96:6199-6204 (1999)).
  • Germline mutations of PTEN are responsible for human cancer syndromes such as Cowden disease (Liaw et al. Nature Genetics 16:64-67 (1997)).
  • PTEN is deleted in a large percentage of human tumors and tumor cell lines without functional PTEN show elevated levels of activated Akt (Li et al. supra, Guldberg et al. Cancer Research 57:3660-3663 (1997), Risinger et al. Cancer Research 57:4736-4738 (1997)).
  • Akt/PKBs Three members of the Akt/PKB subfamily of second-messenger regulated serine/threonine protein kinases have been identified and termed Akt1/ PKB ⁇ , Akt2/PKB ⁇ , and Akt3/PKB ⁇ respectively.
  • the isoforms are homologous, particularly in regions encoding the catalytic domains.
  • Akt/PKBs are activated by phosphorylation events occurring in response to PI3K signaling.
  • PI3K phosphorylates membrane inositol phospholipids, generating the second messengers phosphatidyl- inositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3,4- bisphosphate, which have been shown to bind to the PH domain of Akt/PKB.
  • Akt/PKB activation proposes recruitment of the enzyme to the membrane by 3'-phosphorylated phosphoinositides, where phosphorylation of the regulatory sites of Akt/PKB by the upstream kinases occurs (B.A. Hemmings, Science 275:628-630 (1997); B.A. Hemmings, Science 276:534 (1997); J. Downward, Science 279:673-674 (1998)).
  • Akt1/PKB ⁇ Phosphorylation of Akt1/PKB ⁇ occurs on two regulatory sites, Thr 3O ⁇ in the catalytic domain activation loop and on Ser 473 near the carboxy terminus (D. R. Alessi et al. EMBO J. 15:6541-6551 (1996) and R. Meier et al. J. Biol. Chem. 272:30491-30497 (1997)).
  • Equivalent regulatory phosphorylation sites occur in Akt2/PKB ⁇ and Akt3/PKB ⁇ .
  • the upstream kinase, which phosphorylates Akt/PKB at the activation loop site has been cloned and termed 3 '-phosphoinositide dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1).
  • PDK1 phosphorylates not only Akt/PKB, but also p70 ribosomal S6 kinase, p90RSK, serum and glucocorticoid-regulated kinase (SGK), and protein kinase C.
  • the upstream kinase phosphorylating the regulatory site of Akt/PKB near the carboxy terminus has not been identified yet, but recent reports imply a role for the integrin-linked kinase (ILK-1 ), a serine/threonine protein kinase, or autophosphorylation.
  • ILK-1 integrin-linked kinase
  • serine/threonine protein kinase or autophosphorylation.
  • Akt activation and activity can be achieved by inhibiting PI3K with inhibitors such as LY294002 and wortmannin.
  • inhibitors such as LY294002 and wortmannin.
  • PI3K inhibition has the potential to indiscriminately affect not just all three Akt isozymes but also other PH domain-containing signaling molecules that are dependent on Pdtlns(3,4,5)- P3, such as the Tec family of tyrosine kinases.
  • Akt can be activated by growth signals that are independent of PI3K.
  • Akt activity can be inhibited by blocking the activity of the upstream kinase PDK1.
  • the compound UCN-01 is a reported inhibitor of PDK1. Biochem. J. 375(2):255 (2003).
  • Akt small molecule inhibitors of Akt are useful in the treatment of tumors, especially those with activated Akt (e.g. PTEN null tumors and tumors with ras mutations).
  • PTEN is a critical negative regulator of Akt and its function is lost in many cancers, including breast and prostate carcinomas, glioblastomas, and several cancer syndromes including Bannayan-Zonana syndrome (Maehama, T. et al.
  • Akt3 is up-regulated in estrogen receptor-deficient breast cancers and androgen- independent prostate cancer cell lines and Akt2 is over-expressed in pancreatic and ovarian carcinomas. Akt1 is amplified in gastric cancers (Staal, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci.
  • Akt inhibitor is expected to be useful for the treatment of these types of cancer as well as other types of cancer. Akt inhibitors are also useful in combination with further chemotherapeutic agents. It is an object of the instant invention to provide novel compounds that are inhibitors of Akt/PKB.
