Description:
PYRAZOLO [4, 3-D) PYRIMIDINES, PROCESS FOR THEIR PREPARATION AND METHODS OF USE

This invention relates to new pyrazolo [4, 3-d] pyrimidine derivatives and to their use in suitable utilities, especially in cancer therapy and agricultural practice.

The cell division cycle is an evolutionarily conserved process in all eukaryotic cells to control growth and division. The cell cycle consists of four distinct stages illustrated in Figure 7, the Gl, S, G2 and M phase. Normal cellular proliferation is initiated and tightly controlled by a series of regulatory mechanisms that either permit or prevent cell cycle progression. In every phase, there are protein complexes, the cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases regulating and advancing the cell cycle. Figure 7 shows the cell division cycle (cdc) consisting of four phases G1, S, G2 and M. Mitosis (the actual division) occurs in M-phase. In every phase, there are specific cyclin-dependent kinase complexes present (CDK's).

Proliferative disorders such as cancer are recognised as diseases of the cell cycle. It has been found that in tumour cells, the mechanisms that normally function to restrain cell division are defective, whilst those that promote division become more active. The genes responsible for these changes in growth and proliferation are generally named"tumour suppressors"and"oncogenes". Cell-cycle regulatory compounds are pivotal in the modulation of abnormal cellular proliferation as they provide ideal targets for therapy for a range of proliferative disorders.

A series of 3-, 7-disubstituted pyrazolo [4, 3-d] pyrimidines are useful for inhibition of cyclin-dependent kinases (preferably p34°dc2/cyclin B). Hence they can be used as antimitotic and apoptotic drugs, particularly as anticancer drugs and herbicides.

Likewise, the compounds can be used as anti-fungal agents, which may have high value in the treatment of aspergillosis, penicilliosis, actinomycosis and the like.

Difference in homology of insect CDK genes permit selection of compounds of this invention which discriminate between insect/mammalian CDK enzymes and thus leads to insecticides.

substituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted arylalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroarylakyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloheteroalkyl alkyl ; R7'-X-wherein X is an-NH-,-N (alkyl)-,-O-or-S-moiety and R7'is selected from the group consisting of H, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, alkylcycloalkyl, arylalkyl, heterocycle, heterocycloalkyl, substituted alkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, substituted aryl, substituted arylalkyl, substituted heterocycle, substituted heteroaryl, substituted heteroarylalkyl, substituted heteroalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl alkyl and substituted cycloheteroalkyl alkyl.

If the above groups are substituted, they are preferably substituted by halogen, hydroxyl, amino, mercapto, carboxyl, cyano, nitro, amido, sulfo, sulfamido, carbamino, alkyl, alkoxy, and/or substituted alkyl group, in particular by more than one of the above substituents, preferably by 1 to 3 substituents.

In another embodiment, this invention is a method for inhibiting cdks and cell proliferation and/or for inducing apoptosis in plants, comprising administering an effective amount of a composition comprising one or more compounds according to claim 1 to the plant. The cdk inhibiting molecules are useful for treating disorders, some of them involving cell proliferation, and thus are useful as herbicides.

In yet another embodiment, this invention is a pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more compounds according to claim 1 in an admixture with one or more pharmaceutical excipients.

In still another embodiment, this invention is a composition comprising one or more compounds according to claim 1 useful for treating fungal infections (fungi) in plants.

In another embodiment, this invention is a method for inhibiting cdks and cell proliferation and/or for inducing apoptosis in plants comprising administering an effective amount of the composition of claim 1 to the plant.

In still another embodiment, this invention is a composition useful for treating fungal infections (fungi) in humans, animals and plants.

Diubstituted pyrazolo [4,3-d] pyrimidine derivatives result in the acquisition of extremely high potency against viruses on the part of the defined compounds. An important aspect of the present invention is a method for inhibiting proliferation of a DNA virus dependent upon events associated with cell proliferation for replication.

The DNA virus includes any of the retrovirus family. The efective amount is that sufficient to inhibit cellular CDK activity to extent impending viral replication.

In addition to other CDK1-related kinases, this kinase controls certain steps of cell division cycles, in particular the transition from Gl phase into the S phase and in particular the transition from the G2 phase into the M-phase. Out the basis of this findings, it can be expected that the compounds of the formula I and their acceptable salts can be used as antimitotic compounds and for treatment of proliferative diseases.

In addition to therapeutic applications it will be apparent the subject compounds can be used as a cell culture additive for controlling proliferative and/or differentiation states of cells in vitro, for instance, by controlling the level of activation of a CDK. By preventing the activation of a Go/Gl CDK, the subject inhibitors can prevent mitotic progression and hence provide a means for ensuring an adequately restrictive environment in order to maintain cells at various stages of differentiations, and can be employed, for instance, in cell cultures designed to test the specific activities of trophic factors. Other tissue culture systems which require maintenance of differentiation will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art.

It is likely that inhibition by the compounds, of the invention of the catalytic activity of cyclin-dependent kinases in mediated by interaction of the compounds at the ATP-binding site of the enzyme. Such compounds are particularly desirable for reducing excessive cell growth, since they allow inhibition of the kinase activity regardless of the cause underlying the excessive kinase activity leading to excessive cell proliferation. Thus, the compounds of the invention are active in situations in which the excessive kinase activity results from the kinase being a mutated hyperactive, form of the kinase and situations in which the kinase is present at excessive levels. Such compounds can also block excessive kinase activity in situations in which the cyclin regulating the kinase is present at excessive levels or its binding to the kinase is enhanced. Furthermore, compounds which block kinase activity by interacting with the ATP binding site of the enzyme are also useful for inhibiting kinase activity in situations in which a natural inhibitor of cyclin-kinase complexes is mutated.

It will also be aparent that differential screening assays can be used to select for those compounds of the present invention with specificity for CDK enzymes.

Thus, compounds, which act specifically on eukaryotic pathogens, e. g. , are anti- fungal or anti-parasitic agents, can be selected from the subject of the inhibitors.

By way of illustration, the assays described in the art can be used to screen for agents which may ultimately be useful for inhibiting at leas one fungus implicated in such mycosis as aspergillosis, blastomycosis, chromoblastomycosis, coccidiomycosis, conidiosporosis, actinomycosis, penicilliosis, monoliasis, or sporotrichosis. For example, if the mycotic infection to which treatment is desired is aspergillosis, an assay as described above or in the appended examples can comprise comparing the relative effectiveness of a test compound on inhibiting a plant CDK enzyme with its effectiveness towards a CDK enzyme from yeast. Likewise, the differential screening assays can be used to identify anti-fungal agents which may have value in the treatment of aspergillosis by making use of the CDK genes cloned from yeast such as Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus nidulans, or Apergillus terreus.

In yer another embodiment, certain of the subject CDK inhibitors can be selected on the basis of inhibitory specificity for plant CDK s relative to the mammalian enzyme. For example, a plant CDK can be sidposed in a differential

screen with one or more of the human enzymes to select those compounds of greatest selectivity for inhibiting the plant enzyme. Thus, the present invention specifically contemplates formulations of the subject CDK inhibitors for agricultural applications, such as in the form of a defoliant or the like.

The cells are harvested 68-72 hrs post infection in lysis buffer for 30 min on ice and the soluble fraction is recovered by centrifugation at 14.000 g for 10 min. The protein extract is stored at-80 °C.

Lysis buffer: 50mM Tris pH 7.4, l50mM NaCl, 5mM EDTA, 20mM NaF, 1% Tween, ImMDTT, O. lmMPMSF, leupeptine, aprotonine.

Enzyme inhibition assays To carry out experiments on kinetics under linear conditions, the final point test system for kinase activity measurement is used. The kinase is added to reaction mixture in such a way as to obtain linear activity with respect to the concentration of enzyme and with respect to time.

The p34Cdc2 and p33cdk2 kinase inhibition determination involves the use of lmg/ml histone H1 (Sigma, type III-S) in the presence of 15 µM [γ-33P] ATP (500- 100 cpm/pmol) (ICN) in a final volume of 10 1ll. Kinase activity is determined at 30 °C in the kinase buffer.

Tested compounds are usually dissolved to 100 mM solutions in DMSO, final concentration of DMSO in reaction mixture never exceeds 1%. The controls contain suitable dilutions of DMSO.

After 10 min, addition 3x SDS sample buffer stops the incubations.

Phosphorylated proteins are separated electrophoretically using 10 % SDS polyacrylamide gel. The measurement of kinase activity is done using digital image analysis.

The kinase activity is expressed as a percentage of maximum activity, the apparent inhibition constants are determined by graphic analysis.

Table 4 shows the results of inhibitory activity of novel compounds against CDK1 and CDK2 in comparison with the data on a prototype compound (trisubstituted purine olomoucine). Most of the 3,7-disubstituted pyrazolo [4,3-d] pyrimidine derivatives showed marked inhibitory activity in in vitro kinase assays EXAMPLE 20: CDK Inhibitory Activity on Plant Kinases and Antimitotic Effects Protein extraction and purification of pant CDK by binding to pl3''"-beads or immunopurification with an antibody specific to the cdc2a-MS protein was carried out as described previously (Bogre et al 1997, Plant Physio. 113,1997, 841-852). The MMK1 protein kinase was purified with a specific antibody from Vicia faba extracts as described by Bigre te al. 1997a, Plant Cell 9,75-83). Protein kinase activity was measured as described above in Example 19. The quantification of radioactivity incorporated into histone H1 or myelin basic protein was undertaken using Phosphoimager (original gel images shown on Fig. 1). ICso were calculated from dose-response curves. The drugs inhibited the activity of immunopurified Vicia faba and alfalfa Cdc2-kinase. An observed transient arrest at the G1/S and G2/M indicated that inhibition of the Cdc2-kinase had an effect on both transitions. In contrast to the regular bipolar spindle in untreated cell, in drug-treated metaphase cells abnormally short and dense kinetochore microtubule fibres were observed.

These microtubules were randomly arranged in the vicinity of the kinetochores and connected the chromosomes. Thus the chromosomes were not aligned on the metaphase plate but were arranged in a circle, with kinetochores pointing inwards and chromosome arms pointing outwards. y-tubulin, which plays a role in microtubule nucleation, also localised to the centre of the monopolar spindle. The observed abnormalities in mitosis, after inhibition of Cdc2-kinase by specific drugs

suggest a role for this enzyme in regulating some of the steps leading to a bipolar spindle structure (Fig. 2 and 3).

pyrazolo [4,3-d] pyrimidine derivatives showed marked inhibitory activity in in vitro plant kinase assays.

EXAMPLE 21: In vitro Cytotoxic Activity of Novel Compounds We have been using the following cell lines: HELA (human cervical carcinoma), MCF7 (human breast adenocarcinoma), NIH 3T3 (mouse fibroblasts), HOS (human osteogenic sarcoma), HL 60 (human promyelocytic leukemia), G 361 (human malignant melanoma), K562 (human chronic myeloblastic leukemia), CEM (human lymphoblastoid leukaemia). Tested drugs were added to the cell cultures in six different concentration and kept at 37 °C and 5% CO2 for three days. All cell lines were grown in DMEM medium (Gibco BRL) supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum and L- glutamine and maintained at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO2.

104 cells were seeded into each well of 96 well plate, allowed to stabilize for at least 2 h and then tested compounds were added at various concentrations ranging from 200 to 0, 2 uM in triplicates. Three days after drug addition Calcein AM solution (Molecular Probes) was added and let to enter the cells for 1 hour. Fluorescence of viable cells was quantified employing Fluoroskan Ascent (Microsystems). The ICs0 value, the drug concentration lethal to 50% of the tumour cells, was calculated from the obtained dose response curves (Fig. 6).

Cytoxicity of novel compounds was tested on panel of cell lines of different histogenetic and species origin (Tab. 6). Higher activities were found in all tumour cell lines tested. Notably, the higher effectiveness of novel derivatives was also found in cell lines bearing various mutations or deletions in cell cycle associated proteins, e. g. HL-60, BT549, Hela, U20S, MDA- MB231, and Saos2. It indicates that these substances should be equally effective in tumours with various alterations of tumour suppressor genes, namely p53, Rb, etc. Importantly, this observation distinguishes the novel compounds from flavopiridol and related compounds, as their biological activity is dependent on p53 status.

EXAMPLE 9: Novel Compounds Have Cytotoxic Effects for Plant Cells and Induce their Apoptosis The novel compounds have also been tested in tobacco callus bioassay for cytotoxicity (herbicidal activity) and induction of cell death. The compounds to be tested were dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and the solution brought up to 10-3 M with distilled water. This tock solution was further diluted in the respective media used for the tobacco bioassay to concentration ranging from 10-8 M to 10-4 M. The final concentration of DMSO in the media did not exceed 0.2%, and therefore did not affect biological activity in the assay system used. Cytokinin-dependent tobacco callus Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Wisconsins 38 Murashige-Skoog medium, containing per 1 liter: 4, mol nicotinic acid, 2.4 umol pyridoxine hydrochloride, 1.2 jmol thiamine, 26. 6 J. mol glycine, 1.37 umol glutamine, 1.8 (J. mol myoinositol, 30 g of sucrose, 8 g of agar, 5.37 umol a-naphtylacetic acid and 0.5 u. mol 6-benzylaminopurine. Subcultivation was carried out every three weeks. Fourteen days before the bioassay, the callus tissue was transferred to the media without 6-benzylaminopurine. Compounds were

tested with two different concentrations of 6-benzylaminopurine (10-5 M and 10-6 M). Inhibitory growth activity was determined from the increase in fresh callus weight after four weeks of cultivation. Five replicates were prepared for each concentration tested and the entire test was repeated at least twice.

Inhibitory activity was compared with growth response curve of 6- benzylaminopurine in the range from 10-8 M to 10 4 M and IC50 was calculated for each compound for 10-5 M and 10'6 M of 6-benzylaminopurine.

Most of the 3,7- disubstituted pyrazolo [4,3-d] pyrimidine derivatives showed marked inhibitory activity on in vitro growth. Furthermore, these compounds are able to induce apoptosis in plants cells (are able to kill plant cells) and induce strong antimitotic activities (see Fig. 4 and 5). A dose-dependent inhibition of the cell cycle in Gl/S and G2/M transition points was observed. The appearance of DNA fragmentation

observed by DNA double strand breaks labelling in situ started 3h after drugs addition with highest frequency after 24-48h of treatment, when oligonucleosomal DNA ladder occurred. The high doses of roscovitine, bohemine which induced apoptosis were shown to downregulate in vivo activity of cdk; decrease of cdk protein level was shown by Western blotting and immunofluorescence labelling.

Microtubule reorganization contributing to apoptotic morphology. was observed. The results presented here clearly show that the novel compounds exhibit herbicidal activity
