Full Text | FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to pyrrole derivative compounds of formula I and their use as pharmaceutical agents, in particular their use as TCF-beta signal transduction inhibitors. BACKGROUND AND PRIOR ART The transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-Beta) ("TGF-β") polypeptides influence growth, differentiation, and gene expression in many cell types The first polypeptides of this family that was characterized, TGF- (β1, has two identical 112 amino a single amino acid subunits that are covalently linked. TGF- (β1 is a highly conserved protein with only a single amino acid difference distinguishing humans f rom mice. There are two other members of the TGF-|β gene family that are expressed in mammals. TGF- β2 is 71% homologous to TGF- (β1 (de Martin, et al. (1987) EMBO J. 6:3673-:i677), whereas TGF- (β3 is 80% homologous to TGF- (β1 (Derynck, et al. (1988) EMBO J 7::;737-3743). The structural characteristics of TGF- (β1 as determined by nuclear magnetic resonance. (Archer, et al. (1993) Biochemistry 32:1164- 1171) agree with the crystal structure of TGF- (32 (Daopin, et al. (1992) Science 257:369-374; Schlunegger and Grutter (1992) Nature 358:430-434) There are atleast three different extracellular TGF- (β receptors, Type I, II and III that are involved in the biological functions of TGF- β1, - β2, - (β3 (For reviews, see Derynck (1994) TIBS 19: 548-553 and Massague (1990) Ann. Rev. Cell Biol. 6:597-641) The Type I and Type II receptors are transmembrane se rine/threonine kinase which in the presence of TGF- P form aheteromeric signaling complex (Wrana, et al (1992) Cell 71: 1003-1014). The mechanism of activation of the beteromerie signaling complex at the cell surface has been elucidated (Wrana, et al. (1994) Nature 370:341-347). TGF- β first binds the type II receptor that is constitutively active :ransmembrane serine/ threonine kinase. The type 1 receptor is subsequently recruited into complex, phoshorylated at the GS domain and activated to phosphorylate downstrearr signaling components (e.g. Smad proteins) to initiate the intracellular signaling cascade. A constitutively active type I receptor (T204D mutant) has been shown to effectively transduce TGF- β responses, thus bypassing the requirement for TGF- P and the type II receptor (Wiese •, et al. (1995) EMBO J 14: 2199-2208). Although no signaling function has been discovered for the type III receptor, it does increase TGF-β2's affinity for the type II receptor making it essentially equipotent with TGF-β1 and TGF-β3 (Lopez-Casillas, et al. (1993) Cell 73: 1435-1444). Vascular endothelial cells lack the Type 111 receptor. Instead endothelial cells express a structurally related protein called endoglin (Cheifetz, et al. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267:19027-19530), which only binds TGF-β1 and TGF-β3 with high affinity. Thus, the relative potency of the TGF-β's reflects the type of receptors expressed in a cell and organ system. In addition to the regulation of the components in the multi-factorial signaling pathway, the distribution of the synthesis of TGF-β polypeptides also affects physiological function. The distribution of TGF-β2 and TGF-(β3 is more limited (Derynck, et al. (1988) EMBO J 7:3737-3743) than TGF-pl, e.g., TGF-p3 is limited to tissues of mesenchymal origin, whereas TGF-βl is present in both tissues of mesenchymal and epithelial origin. TGF-β1 is a multifunctional cytokine critical for tissue repair. High concentrations of TGF-βl are delivered to the site of injury by platelet granules (Assoian and Sporn (1986) J. Cell Biol. 102:1217-1223). TGF-βl initiates a series of events that promote healing including chemo taxis of cells such as leukocytes, monocytcs and fibroblasts, and regulation of growth factors: and cytokines involved in angiogenesis, cell division associated with tissue repair and inflammatory responses. TGF-βl also stimulates the synthesis of extracellular matrix components (Roberts, et al. (1986) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 83:4167-4! 71; Sporn, et al. (1983) Science 219:1329-1330; Massague (1987) Cell 49:437-438) and most importantly for understanding the pathophysiology of TGF-βl, TGF-βl autoiregulates its own synthesis (Kim, et al. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264:7041-7045).

The compounds exemplied ;ibove are merely representative of the invention and are not limiting in any fashion. The compounds disclosed herein can be made according to the following schemes and examples. The examples should in no way be understood to be limiting in any way as to how the compounds may be mads. The skilled artisan will appreciate that the introduction of certain substituents will create asymmetry in the compounds of Formula (1). 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. The compounds of the present invention can be prepared by a variety of procedures, some of which are illustrated in the Schemes below. It will be recognized by one of skill in the art that the individual steps in the following schemes may be varied to provide the compounds of Formula (I). The particular order of steps required to produce the compounds of Formula (I) is dependent upon the particular compound being synthesized, the starting compound, and the relative lability of the substituted moieties. The Compounds of Formula (1) may be prepared from several synthetic methods. In Scheme I, Methods A and B employ a cyclization of an appropriately substituted alkylideneamino-pyrrolidin-2-one (1), Method A, or an appropriately substituted alkanone-alkene-hydrazide (2), Method B.

The reaction is carried out in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, N,N- dimethyjformamide, dimethylsulfoxide or toluene, preferably N,N-dimethylformamide at temperatures of about 0 to 100 °C. The products can be isolated and purified by techniques well known in the art, such as precipitation, filtration, extraction, evaporation, trituration, chromatography, and recrystallization. Optionally, a variation of step b of Scheme I, may be appropriate for trie formation of 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-pyrazolo[l,5- a]pyridine derivatives, when n equals to 2, to give the corresponding derivatives of Formula (I) as shown in Method B. Another variation a skilled artisan would appreciate is Method C for the formation of Formula (I), in Scheme I, is step b, which is known and appreciated in the art (Ranganathan, Darshan; Bamezai, Shakti, Tetrahedron Lett., 1983,1067-1070). For example, an alkyne of (3) is reacted with a compound of (4) in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, MN-dimethylformainide, or toluene, xylene, preferably xylene at temperatures of about 0 to 150 °C. The products can be isolated and purified by techniques described above. alkoxides (sodium methoxide, or sodium eihoxide) or potassium alkoxides (potassium methoxide, potassium t-butoxide or potassium ethoxide), with potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide being the preferred base. Generally, the reaction is carried out in suitable solvents, such as tetrahydrofuran and toluene or a combination of such, at temperatures of about -78 °C to ambient temperature. The product, formula (7), can be isolated and purified by techniques well known in the art, such as precipitation, filtration, extraction, evaporation, trituration, chromatography, and recrystallization. Another variation of the acylation step c, is to use a nitrile compound of formula (10) in place of the aromatic- or heteroaromatic-methyl compounds of formula (5). The product, formula (II), can be transformed to formula (7) by hydrolysis of the nitrile group and then subsequent decarboxylation. Generally, a compound of formula (I I) is dissolved in a hydrogen halide acid solution, preferably hydrogen chloride. The reaction is carried out at temperatures of about ambient to lefluxing for about 24 hours. Tins type of reaction is well known and appreciated in the art (Larock, R. C, Comprehensive Organic Transformations, copyright 1989, VCH, pp 993). Compounds of formula (10) can be acquired by treatment of an appropriate substituted aromatic- or heteroaromatic-methyl group with a halogenating reagent, such as N-halosuccinimides, preferably N- bromosuccinimide in carbon tetrachloride and subsequently reacting the aromatic- halomethyiene intermediate with a nitrile source, such as lithium cyanide, potassium cyanide, or trimethylsilyl cyanide, preferably sodium cyanide. The reaction is carried out at ambient temperatures for about 24 hours, as shown in step d, to afford the acetonitrile compounds of formula (10), (Larock, R. C, Comprehensive Organic Transformations, copyright 1989, VCH, pp 313; Eur. J. Org. Chem. 1999,2315-2321). In Scheme 11, step f, compound of formula (7) is contacted to an appropriate compound of formula (9), this type ol compound is known and appreciated in the art (Taylor, Edward C; Haley, Neil F.; Clemens, Robert J., J. Amer. Ckem. Soc, 1981, 7743- 7752), to give the compound of formula (1). Typically, the reaction is carried out in an acidic solvent, such as acetic acid and a suitable acid scavenger such as pyridine, or triethylamine. The reaction is carried out at temperatures of about 60 °C to ambient for 4-24 hours. The products can be isolated and purified by techniques described above. Another variation a skilled artisan would appreciate in the formation of Formula (I) is shown in Scheme 111. Scheme 111, step g, depicts n Claisen condensation of two appropriate substituted carbonyl esters, where X for both compounds of formula (6) and formula (13) is a suitable leaving group as previously described, preferably a CI-G6 alkoxy group. The Claisen condensation is well known and appreciated in the art (March, J., Advanced Organic Chemistry, copyright 1985, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., pp 437-439). The products of formula (14) can be isolated and purified by techniques described above. ]n Scheme IJJ, step f conditions can be applied to a compound of formula (14) with the appropriate compound of formula (9), to give the compound of formula (15). Typically, the reaction is carried out in a suitable solvent such as ethanol, N- methylpyrrolidinone or pyridine with pyridine being the preferred solvent. The reaction is carried out at temperatures of about 60 °C to ambient for 4-24 hours. The products can be isolated and purified by techniques described above. Step c, as described above, depicts the cyclization of a compound of formula (15) to give an optionally substituted compound of formula (16). Typically, the appropriate compound of formula (15) is reacted with to a suitable base that can form the anion of the hydrazone, sodium hydride being the preferred base in a suitable solvent preferably N,N- dimethylformamide at temperatures of about 0 to 100 °C. Optionally, a hydrolysis of the carboxyl ester of formula (16) can be performed. The products can be isolated and purified by techniques described above. Step h depicts the transformation of a carboxylic acid, formula (16), to a halide of formula (17). This transformation k well known and appreciated in the art (Larock, R. C, Comprehensive Organic Transformations, 2"d Ed., copyright 1999, John Wiley & Sons, pp 741-742). The halide of formula (17) can be used as a leaving group in combination with a substituted aryf- or heteroarylboronic acid or ester in the presence of a suitable palladium catalyst, preferably tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0), and a suitable base such as potassium carbonate to further give compounds of Formula (I) > (Suzuki reaction see: Miryaura, N.; Yanagi, T.; Suzuki, A. The Palladium-Catalyzed Cross Coupling Reaction of Phenylboronic Acid with Haloarenes in the Presence of Bases. Synth. Commun., 1981, 513-518). Scheme IV, step j, depicts a carbonylation reaction for the formation of compounds of formula (6) and (20), where X is a suitable leaving group described as above, preferably a halogen. Compounds of formula (18) and (19) are used in the i formation of formula (6) and (20), respectively. The carbonyl group of formula (6) and (20) can further undergo a synthetic i ransformation to incorporate the leaving group X, where X is previously described. The Y group can be an aromatic or heteroaromatic halide and the reaction can be carried out in the presence of carbon monoxide, a suitable nucleophile, such as an amine or an itlcohol, with a palladium (0) or palladium (II) > catalyst, such as l,l'-bis(diphenylphc«sphino) ferrocene]dichloropalladium(ll): dichloromethane, tetrakis(triphenylpi«sphine)-palladium(O), bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (II) chloride or palladium(H) acetate, tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0), tris-(benzylideneacetone)dipaHa bis(diphenylphosphino) feiTOcene]diehloropaHadium(ll):dichlorornethane.

Representative data for compounds of the current invention with the KDR ICS0 Conditions "characterized by enhanced TGF-P activity" include those wherein TGF-P synthesis is stimulated so that TGF-P is present at increased levels or wherein TGF-P latent protein is undesirably activated or converted to active TGF-P protein or wherein TGF-P receptors are uprcgulated or wherein the TGF-P protein shows enhanced binding to cells or extracellular matrix in the location of the disease. Thus, in either case "enhanced activity" refers to any condition wherein the biological activity of TGF-p is undesirably high, regardless of the cause. A number of diseases haw been associated with TGF-p 1 over production. Inhibitors of TGF-B intracellular signaling pathway are useful treatments for fibroproliferative diseases. Specifically, fibroproliferative diseases include kidney disorders associated with unregulated TGF- 0 activity and excessive fibrosis including glomerulonephritis (GN), such as nesangial proliferative GN, immune GN, and crescentic GN. Other renal conditions include diabetic nephropathy, renal interstitial fibrosis, renal fibrosis in transplant patients receiving cyclosporin, and HIV-associated nephropathy. Collagen vascular disorders include progressive systemic sclerosis, polymyositis, scleroderma, dermatomyositis, eosinophilic fascitis, morphea, or those associated with the occurrence of Raynaud's syndrome. Lung fibroses resulting from excessive TGF- B activity include adult respiratory distress syndrome, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and interstitial pulmonary fibrosis often associated with autoimmune disorders, such as systemic lupus erythematosus and scleroderma, chemical contact, or allergies. Another autoimmune disorder associated with fibroproliferative characteristics is rheumatoid arthritis. Eye diseases associated with a fibroproliferative condition include retinal reattachment surgery accompanying proliferative vitreoretinopathy, cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation, and post glaucoma drainage surgery are associated with TGF-P 1 overproduction. Fibrotic diseases associated with TGF-|3l overproduction can be divided into chronic conditions such as fibrosis of the kidney, lung and liver and more acute conditions such as dermal scarring and restenosis (Chamberlain, J. Cardiovascular Drug Reviews, J9(4):329-344). Synthesis and secretion of TGF-pi by tumor cells can also lead to immune suppression such as seen in patients with aggressive brain or breast tumors (Arteaga, et al. (1993) J. Oin. Invest. 92:2569-2576). The course of Leishmanial infection in mice is drastically altered by TGF-pl (Barral-Netto, et al. (1992) Science 257:545-547). TGF-pl exacerbated the disease, whereas TGF-pM antibodies halted the progression of the disease in genetically susceptible mice. Genetically resistant mice became susceptible to Leishmanial infection upon administration of TGF-pM. The profound effects of TGF-fJl on extracellular matrix deposition have been reviewed (Rocco and Ziyadeh (1991) in Contemporary Issues in Nephrology v.23, Hormones, autocoids and the kidney, ed. Jay Stein, Churchill Livingston, New York pp.391-410; Roberts, et al. (1988) Rec. Prog. Hormone Res. 44:157-197) and include the stimulation of the synthesis and the inhibition of degradation of extracellular matrix components. Since the structure and filtration properties of the glomerulus are largely determined by the extracellular matrix composition of the mesangium and glomerular membrane, it is not surprising that TGF-Pl has profound effects on the kidney. The accumulation of mesangial matrix in proliferative glomerulonephritis (Border, et al. (1990) Kidney Int. 37:689-695) and diabetic nephropathy (Mauer, et al. (1984) J. Clin. Invest. 74:1143-1155) are clear and dominant pathological features of the diseases. TGF- PI levels are elevated in human diabetic glomerulosclerosis (advanced neuropathy) (Yamamoto, et al. (1993) Proc.Nati.Acad. Sci. 90:1814-1818). TGF-pl is an important mediator in the genesis of renal fibrosis in a number of animal models (Phan, et al. (1990) Kidney Int. 37:426; Okuda, et al. (1990) J. Clin. Invest. 86:453). Suppression of experimentally induced glomerulonephritis in rats has been demonstrated by antiserum against TGF-fJl (Border, et al. (1990) Nature 346:371) and by an extracellular matrix protein, decorin, which can bindTGF-|Jl (Border, et al. (1992) Nature 360:361-363). Too much TGF-p*l leads to dermal scar-tissue formation. Neutralizing TGF-pl antibodies injected into the margins of healing wounds in rats have been shown to inhibit scarring without interfering with the rate of wound healing or the tensile strength of the wound (Shah, et al. (1992) Lancet 339:213-214). At the same time there was reduced angiogenesis, reduced number of macrophages and monocytes in the wound, and a reduced amount of disorganized collagen fiber deposition in the scar tissue. TGF-pl may be a factor in he progressive thickening of the arterial wall which results from the proliferation of smooth muscle cells and deposition of extracellular matrix in the artery after balloon angioplasty. The diameter of the restenosed artery may be reduced 90% by this thickening, and since most of the reduction in diameter is due to extracellular matrix rather than smooth muscle cell bodies, it may be possible to open these vessels to 50% simply by reducing extensive extracellular matrix deposition. In uninjured pig arteries transfected in vivo with a TGF-01 gene, TGF-p*l gene expression was associated with both extracellular matrix synthesis and hyperplasia (Nabel, et al. (1993) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA «>0:10759-10763). The TGF-J31 induced hyperplasia was not as extensive as that induced with PDGF-BB, but the extracellular matrix was more extensive with TGF-Pl transfectants. No extracellular matrix deposition was associated with FGF-1 (a secreted form of FGF) induced hyperplasia in this gene transfer pig model (Nabel (1993) Nature 362:844-846). There are several types of cancer where TGF-pi produced by the tumor may be deleterious. MATLyLu rat prostate cancer cells (Steiner and Barrack (1992) Mol. Endocrinol 6:15-25) and MCF-7 human breast cancer cells (Arteaga, et al. (1993) Cell Growth and Differ. 4:193-201) became more tumorigenic and metastatic after transfection with a vector expressing the mouse TGF-pi. TGF-p* 1 has been associated » with angiogenesis, metastasis and poor prognosis in human prostate and advanced gastric cancer (Wikstrom, P., et al. (1998) Prostate 37: 19-29; Saito, H. et al. (1999) Cancer 86: 1455-1462). Jn breast cancer, poor prognosis is associated with elevated TGF-p* (Diclcson, et al. (1987) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 84:837-841; Kasid, et al. (1987) Cancer Res. 47:5733-5738; Daly, et al. (1990) J. Cell Biochem. 43:199-211; Barrett-Lee, et al. (1990) Br. J Cancer 61:612-617; King, et al. (1989) J. Steroid Biochem. 34:133-138; Welch, et al. (1990) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87:7678-7682; Walker, et al. (1992) Eur. J. Cancer 238:641-644) and induction of TGF-p*l by tamoxifen treatment (Butta, et al. (1992) Cancer Res. 52:4261-4264) has been associated with failure of tamoxifen treatment for breast cancer (Thompson, et al. (1991) Br. J. Cancer 63:609-614). Ami TGF-P 1 antibodies inhibit the growth of MDA-231 human breast cancer cells in athymic mice (Arteaga, et al. (1993) J. Clin. Invest. 92:2569-2576), a treatment which is correlated with an increase in spleen natural killer cell activity. CHO cells transfected with latent TGF-P 1 also showed decreased NK activity and increased tumor growth in nude mice (Wallick, et al. (1990) J. Exp. Mcd. 172:1777-1784). Thus, TGF-P secreted by breast tumors may cause an endocrine immune suppression. High plasma concentrations of TGF-P 1 have been shown to indicate poor prognosis for advanced breast cancer patients (Anscher, et al. (1993) N. Engl. J. Med. 328:1592-1598). Patients with high circulating TGF-P before high dose chemotherapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation are at high risk for hepatic veno-occlusive disease (15-50% of all patients with a mortality rate up to 50%) and idiopathic interstitial pneumonitis (40-60% of all patients). The implication of these findings is 1) that elevated plasma levels of TGF-p*1 can be used to identify at risk patients and 2) that reduction of TGF-P 1 could decrease the morbidity and mortality of these common treatments for breast cancer patients. Many malignant cells secrete transforming growth factor-P (TGF-p), a potent immunosuppressant, suggesting than TGF-P production may represent a significant tumor escape mechanism from host immunosurvcillance. Establishment of a leukocyte sub- population with disrupted TGF-P signaling in the tumor-bearing host offers a potential means for immunotherapy of cancel. A transgenic animal model with disrupted TGF-P signaling in T cells is capable of eradicating a normally lethal TGF-P overexpressing lymphoma tumor, EL4 (Gorelik and Flavell, (2001) Nature Medicine 7(10): 1118-1122). Down regulation of TGF-P secretion in tumor cells results in restoration of immunogenicity in the host, while 1 -cell insensitivity to TGF-P results in accelerated differentiation and autoimmunity, elements of which may be required in order to combat self-antigen-expressing tumors in a (olerized host. The immunosuppressive effects of TGF-p have also been implicated in a subpopulation of HIV patients with lower than predicted immune response based on their CD4/CD8 T cell counts (Garba, et al. J. Immunology (2002) 168: 2247-2254). A TGF-p neutralizing antibody was capable of reversing the effect in culture, indicating that TGF-P signaling inhibitors may have utility in reversing the immune suppression present in this subset of HIV patients. During the earliest stages ofcarcinogenesis, TGF-pi can act as a potent tumor suppressor and may mediate the actions of some chemopreventive agents. However, at some point during the development and progression of malignant neoplasms, tumor cells appear to escape from TGF-P-depeifident growth inhibition in parallel with the appearance of bioactive TGF-P in the microenvironment. The dual tumor suppression/tumor promotion roles of TGF-p have been most clearly elucidated in a transgenic system overexpressing TGF-P in keratinocytes. While the transgenics were more resisitant to formation of benign skin lesions, the rate of metastatic conversion in the transgenics was dramatically increased (Cui, et al (1996) Cell 86(4):531 -42). The production of TGF-p 1 by malignant cells in primary tumors appears to increase with advancing stages of tumor progression. Studies in many of the major epithelial cancers suggest that the increased production of TGF-P by human cancers occurs as a relatively late event during tumor progression. Further, this tumor-associated TGF-P provides the tumor cells with a selective advantage and promotes tumor progression. The effects of TGF-P on cell/cell and cell/stroma interactions result in a greater propensity for invasion and metastasis. Tumor-associated TGF-p may allow tumor cells to escape from immune surveillance since it is a potent inhibitor of the clonal expansion of activated lymphocytes. TGF-P has also been shown to inhibit the production of angiostatin. Cancer therapeutic modalities such as radiation therapy and chemotherapy induce the production of activated TGF-P in the tumor, thereby selecting outgrowth of malignant cells that are resistant to TGF-p growth inhibitory effects. Thus, these anticancer treatments increase the risk and hasten the development of tumors with enhanced growth and invasiveness. In this situation, agents targeting TGF-p-mediated signal transduction might be a very effective therapeutic strategy. The resistance of tumor cells to TGF-P has been shown to negate much of the cytotoxic effects of radiation therapy and chemotherapy and the treatment- dependent activation of TGF-P in the stroma may even be detrimental as it can make the microenvironment more conducive to tumor progression and contributes to tissue damage leading to fibrosis. The development of a TGF-P signal transduction inhibitors is likely to benefit the treatment of progressed cancer alone and in combination with other therapies. be administered and the choice of route of administration and therefore the above preferred dosage range is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention in any way.
