HETEROARYL UREA DERIVATIVES USEFUL FOR INHIBITING CHK1
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to compounds
useful for inhibiting enzymes that maintain and repair
the integrity of genetic material. More particularly,
the present invention relates to a series of aryl- and
heteroaryl-substituted urea compounds, methods of making
the compounds, and their use as therapeutic agents, for
example, in treating cancer and other diseases
characterized by defects in deoxyribonucleic acid replication, chromosome segregation, or cell division.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
A large variety of diseases, conditions, and
disorders (hereinafter "indications") are characterized
as involving aberrantly proliferating cells. As used
herein, "aberrantly proliferating cells" (or "aberrant
cell proliferation") means cell proliferation that
deviates from the normal, proper, or expected course.
For example, aberrant cell proliferation includes
inappropriate proliferation of cells wherein DNA or other
cellular components have become damaged or defective.
Aberrant cell proliferation also characterizes clinical
indications caused by, mediated by, or resulting in
inappropriately high levels of cell division,
inappropriately low levels of cell death (e.g.,
apoptosis), or both. Such indications can be
characterized, for example, by single or multiple local
abnormal proliferations of cells, groups of cells or

tissue(s), and include cancerous (benign or malignant)
and noncancerous indications.
By definition, all cancers (benign and
malignant) involve some form of aberrant cell
proliferation. Some noncancerous indications also
involve aberrant cell proliferation. Examples of
noncancerous indications involving aberrant cell
proliferation include rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis,
vitiligo, Wegener's granulomatosis, and systemic lupus.
One approach to treating indications involving
aberrantly proliferating cells involves the use of DNA
damaging agents. These agents are designed to kill
aberrantly proliferating cells by disrupting vital
cellular processes such as DNA metabolism, DNA synthesis,
DNA transcription, and microtubule spindle formation.
They also can operate, for example, by introducing
lesions into DNA that perturb chromosomal structural
integrity. DNA damaging agents are designed and
administered in ways that attempt to induce maximum
damage and consequent cell death in aberrantly
proliferating cells with a minimum damage to normal,
healthy cells.
A large variety of DNA damaging agents has been developed to date, including chemotherapeutics and
radiation, and others are in development. Unfortunately,
the effectiveness of DNA damaging agents in treating
conditions involving aberrant cell proliferation has been
less than desired, particularly in the treatment of
cancer. The selectivity of such agents for aberrantly
proliferating cells over healthy cells (sometimes
referred to as the therapeutic index) often is marginal.
Moreover, all cells have sensing and repair
mechanisms that can work at cross purposes to DNA

damaging agents. Such sensing mechanisms, called cell
cycle checkpoints, help to maintain the order of the
various cell replication stages and to ensure that each
step is executed with high fidelity (Hartwell et al.,
Science, 246:629-634 (1989); Weinert et al., Genes Dev.,
8:652 (1994)). When cells detect DNA damage, including .
damage purposefully induced by DNA damaging agents,
certain signaling pathways activate cell cycle
checkpoints and the cell replication cycle temporarily' '
ceases ("arrests"). This arrest allows cells time to
repair their DNA, often to a degree sufficient to allow
them to continue to survive and proliferate. In the case
of aberrantly proliferating cells, this repair is
unwanted, as it may undermine efforts to induce DNA
damage sufficient to kill such cells.
For example, the chemotherapeutic agent called
GEMZAR™ (gemcitabine, or 2',2'-difluoro-2'-deoxycytidine)
damages DNA by incorporating itself into DNA during
synthesis. Left unrepaired, damaged DNA generally is
rendered incapable of sustaining life. In many targeted
cells, however, cell cycle checkpoints detect the
improperly made (or otherwise damaged) DNA. The
activated cell cycle checkpoints trigger cell cycle
arrest for a time sufficient to allow damaged DNA to be
repaired. This is one way in which aberrantly
proliferating cells are theorized to resist the cell-
killing effect of DNA-damaging agents such as
chemotherapeutics, radiation, and other therapies.
Other DNA-damaging agents cause tumor cells to
arrest in S-phase. Tumor cells have been observed to
resist certain chemotherapeutics simply by arresting in S
phase while the chemotherapeutic agent is being
administered. Then, as soon as the drug is removed, DNA

damage is repaired, cell cycle arrest ceases, and the
cells progress through the remainder of the cell cycle
(Shi et al., Cancer Res. 61:1065-1012, 2001). Other
therapeutics cause cell cycle arrest at other
checkpoints, including G1 and G2. Inhibition of various
DNA damage checkpoints therefore is expected to assist in
preventing cells from repairing therapeutically induced
DNA damage and to sensitize targeted cells to DNA
damaging agents. Such sensitization is in turn expected
to increase the therapeutic index of these therapies.
The cell cycle is structurally and
functionally the same in its basic process and mode of
regulation across all eukaryotic species. The mitotic
(somatic) cell cycle consists of four phases: the Gl
(gap) phase, the S (synthesis) phase, the G2 (gap) phase,
and the M (mitosis) phase. The Gl, S, and G2 phases are
collectively referred to as interphase of the cell cycle.
During the Gl phase, biosynthetic activities of the cell
progress at a high rate. The S phase begins when DNA
synthesis starts, and ends when the DNA content of the
nucleus of the cell has been replicated and two identical
sets of chromosomes are formed.
The cell then enters the G2 phase, which
continues until mitosis starts. In mitosis, the
chromosomes pair and separate, two new nuclei form, and
cytokinesis occurs in which the cell splits into two
daughter cells each receiving one nucleus containing one
of the two sets of chromosomes. Cytokinesis terminates
the M phase and marks the beginning of interphase of the
next cell cycle. The sequence in which cell cycle events
proceed is tightly regulated, such that the initiation of
one cell cycle event is dependent on the completion of
the prior cell cycle event. This allows fidelity in the

duplication and segregation of genetic material from one
generation of somatic cells to the next.
It has been reported that cell cycle
checkpoints comprise at least three distinct classes of
polypeptides, which act sequentially in response to cell
cycle signals or defects in chromosomal mechanisms (Carr,
Science, 271:314-315, 1996). The first class is a family
of proteins that detect or sense DNA damage or
abnormalities in the cell cycle. These sensors include
Ataxia-telangiectasia Mutated protein (Atm) and Ataxia-
Telangiectasia Rad-related protein (Atr). The second
class of polypeptides amplify and transmit the signal
detected by the detector and is exemplified by Rad53
(Alen et al. Genes Dev. 8:2416-2488, 1994) and Chkl. A
third class of polypeptides includes cell cycle
effectors, such as p53, that mediate a cellular response,
for example, arrest of mitosis and apoptosis.
Much of the current understanding of the
function of cell cycle checkpoints has been derived from
the study of tumor derived cell lines. In many cases,
tumor cells have lost key cell cycle check points
(Hartwell et al., Science 266:1821-28, 1994). It has
been reported that a key step in the evolution of cells
to a neoplastic state is the acquisition of mutations
that inactivate cell cycle checkpoint pathways, such as
those involving p53 (Weinberg, Cell 32:323-330, 1995;
Levine, Cell 83:3234-331, 1997). Loss of these cell
cycle checkpoints results in the replication of tumor
cells despite DNA damage.
Noncancerous tissue, which has intact cell
cycle checkpoints, typically is insulated from temporary
disruption of a single checkpoint pathway. Tumor cells,
however, have defects in pathways controlling cell cycle

progression such that the perturbation of additional
checkpoints renders them particularly sensitive to DNA
damaging agents. For example, tumor cells that contain
mutant p53 are defective both in the Gl DNA damage
checkpoint and in the ability to maintain the G2 DNA
damage checkpoint (Bunz et al., Science, 282:1491-501,
1998). Checkpoint inhibitors that target initiation of
the G2 checkpoint or the S phase checkpoint are expected
to further cripple the ability of these tumor cells to
repair DNA damage and, therefore, are candidates to
enhance the therapeutic index of both radiation and
systemic chemotherapy (Gesner, Abstract at SRI
Conference: Protein Phosphorylation and Drug Discovery
World Summit, March 2003).
In the presence of DNA damage or any
impediment to DNA replication, the checkpoint proteins
Atm and Atr initiate a signal transduction pathway
leading to cell cycle arrest. Atm has been shown to play
a role in a DNA damage checkpoint in response to ionizing
radiation (IR). Atr is stimulated by agents that cause
double strand DNA breaks, single strand DNA breaks, and
agents that block DNA radiation.
Chkl is a protein kinase that lies downstream
from Atm and/or Atr in the DNA damage checkpoint signal
transduction pathway (Sanchez et al., Science, 277:1497-
1501, 1997; U.S. Patent No. 6,218,109). In mammalian
cells, Chkl is phosphorylated in response to agents that
cause DNA damage including ionizing radiation (IR),
ultraviolet (UV) light, and hydroxyurea (Sanchez et al.,
supra; Lui et al., Genes Dev., 14:1448-1459, 2000). This
phosphorylation which activates Chkl in mammalian cells
is dependent on Atm (Chen et al., Oncogene, 18:249-256,
1999) and Atr (Lui et al., supra). Furthermore, Chkl has

been shown to phosphorylate both weel (O'Connell et al.,
EMBO J., 25:545-554, 1997) and Pdsl (Sanchez et al.,
Science, 286:1166-1171, 1999), gene products known to be
important in cell cycle control.
These studies demonstrate that mammalian Chkl
plays a role in the Atm' dependent DNA damage checkpoint
leading to arrest at S phase. A role for Chkl in the S
phase mammalian cells has recently been elucidated
(Feijoo et al., J. Cell Biol., 254:913-923, 2001; Zhao et
al., PNAS U.S.A, 99:14795-800, 2002; Xiao et al., J Biol
Chem. , 278 (24) .-21767-21773, 2003; Sorensen et al., Cancer
Cell, 3(3):247-58, 2003) highlighting the role of Chkl in
monitoring the integrity of DNA synthesis. Chkl invokes
an S-phase arrest by phosphorylating Cdc25A, which
regulates cyclinA/cdk2 activity (Xiao et al., supra and
Sorensen et al./ supra). Chkl also invokes a G2 arrest
by phosphorylating and inactivating Cdc25C, the dual
specificity phosphatase that normally dephosphorylates
cyclin-B/cdc2 (also known as Cdkl) as cells progress from
G2 into mitosis (Fernery et al., Science, 277:1495-7,
1997; Sanchez et al., supra; Matsuoka et al., Science,
282:1893-1891, 1998; and Blasina et al., Curr. Biol.,
9:1-10, 1999). In both cases, regulation of Cdk activity
induces a cell cycle arrest to prevent cells from
entering mitosis in the presence of DNA damage or
unreplicated DNA.
Additional classes of cell cycle checkpoint
inhibitors operate at either the G1 or G2/M phase. UCN-
01, or 7-hydroxystaurosporine, originally was isolated as
a nonspecific kinase inhibitor having its primary effect
on protein kinase C, but recently has been found to
inhibit the activity of Chkl and abrogate the G2 cell
cycle checkpoint (Shi et al., supra). Thus, because UCN-


01 is a nonselective Chkl inhibitor, it is toxic to cells
at high doses. At low doses, it nonspecifically inhibits
many cellular kinases and also inhibits the G1 checkpoint
(Tenzer et al., Curr. Med Chem. Anticancer Agents, -3:35-
46, 2003) .
UCN-01 has been used in conjunction with
cancer therapies, such as radiation, the anticancer agent
camptothecin (Tenzer et al., supra), and gemcitabine (Shi
et al., supra), with limited success. In addition, UCN-
01 has been used to potentiate the effects of
temozolomide (TMZ) induced DNA mismatch repair (MMR) in
glioblastoma cells (Hirose et al., Cancer Res., 62:5843-
5849, 2001). In the clinic, UCN-01 is not an effective
chemotherapeutic as expected, possibly due to a failure
in treatment scheduling and a lack of identification of
particular key molecular targets (Grant et al., Drug
Resistance Updates, 6:15-26, 2003). Thus, Mack et al.
report cell cycle-dependent potentiation of cisplatin by
UCN-01 in a cultured nonsmall-cell lung carcinoma cell
line, but do not identify with specificity the key cell
cycle checkpoint (s) targeted by UCN-01. (Mack et al.,
Cancer Chemother. Pharmacol., 51(4):337-348, 2003).
Several other strategies exist for sensitizing
tumor cells to treatment with cell cycle affecting
chemotherapeutics. For example, administration of 2-
aminopurine abrogates multiple cell cycle checkpoint
mechanisms, such as mimosine-induced G1 arrest or
hydroxyurea-induced S phase arrest, allowing the cell to
progress into and through mitosis (Andreassen et al.,
Proc Natl Acad Sci U.S.A., 86:2212-2216, 1992).
Caffeine, a methylxanthine, has also been used to enhance
cytotoxicity of DNA-damaging agents, such as cisplatin
and ionizing radiation, by mediating progression through

the G2 checkpoint and thereby inducing cell death.
(Bracey et al., Clin.' Cancer Res., 3:1371-1381, 1997).
However, the dose of caffeine used to accomplish the cell
cycle abrogation exceeds clinically acceptable levels and
is not a viable therapeutic option. Additionally,
antisense nucleotides to Chkl kinase have been used to
increase sensitivity to the topoisoraerase inhibitor
BNP1350 (Yin et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun.,
255:435-44, 2002), but demonstrate problems typically
associated with antisense treatment and gene therapy.

As used herein, the term "C1-3alkyl" includes
straight chain and branched alkyl groups containing one
to three carbon atoms, i.e., methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, and
isopropyl.
"Halo" is defined herein as fluoro, chloro,
bromo, and iodo.
"Cyano" is defined as -CN.
"Trifluoromethyl" is defined to mean -CF3.
The abbreviation "Me" is methyl, i.e., -CH3.
DNA-damaging agents that activate cell cycle
checkpoints generally are referred to herein as
"checkpoint activators." DNA-damaging agents that
activate the checkpoint designated "Chkl" (pronounced .
"check-one") are referred to herein as "Chkl activators."
Likewise, inhibitors of such checkpoints are referred to
herein as "checkpoint inhibitors" and "Chkl inhibitors,"
respectively.
As used herein, Chkl inhibitors are compounds
that are capable of at least partially abrogating at
least one cell cycle checkpoint activity of the Chkl
protein. Abrogation of a cell cycle checkpoint is
achieved when the cellular checkpoint mechanism is
overcome sufficiently to allow the cell to pass from the
cell cycle phase in which it is halted to the next phase
in the cell cycle or to allow the cell to pass directly
to cell death. Abrogation of a cell cycle checkpoint
permits cells to carry damaged or imperfect genetic
material to subsequent cell cycle phases, thereby
inducing or promoting cell death. Cell death can occur

by any mechanism, including apoptosis and mitotic
catastrophe. The compounds of the invention are Chkl
inhibitors.
Chkl activator includes any known or after-
discovered agent having the ability to activate Chkl
kinase activity, and thus induce at least partial cell
cycle arrest. Chkl activators include agents capable of
arresting the cell cycle at any phase of the cell cycle,
which phase may be referred to herein as the "target
phase" for that activator. Target phases include any of
the cell cycle phases except mitosis, i.e., any of the
Gl, S, and G2 phases. Chkl activators useful in the
invention include DNA damaging agents, such as
chemotherapeutic agents and/or radiation. Radiation Chkl
activators include, but are not limited to, ionizing
radiation. Ionizing radiation includes elctromgnetic or
particulate radiation capable of producing ion pairs by
interacting with matter. Ionizing radiation includes x
and gamma rays, alpha and beta particles, neutrons and
charged nuclei. Radioation includes ultraviolet light-,
visible light, infrared radiation, microwave radiation,
and mixtures thereof. Assays such as that described in
Example 8 can be used to determine whether an agent is a
Chkl activator.
"Inhibiting aberrant cell proliferation" means
retarding the rate at which aberrantly proliferating
cells proliferate or eliminating such proliferation
altogether. This inhibition can result either from a
decreased rate of replication, an increased rate of cell
death, or both. Cell death can occur by any mechanism,
including apoptosis and mitotic catastrophe.

"Preventing aberrant cell proliferation" means
inhibiting aberrant cell proliferation prior to
occurrence, or inhibiting the recurrence thereof.
"In vivo" means within a living subject, as
within an animal or human. In this context, agents can
be used therapeutically in vivo to retard or eliminate
the proliferation of aberrantly replicating cells. The
agents also can be used in vivo as a prophylactic to
prevent aberrant cell proliferation or the manifestation
of symptoms associated therewith.
"Ex vivo" means outside a living subject.
Examples of ex vivo cell populations include cell
cultures and biological samples such as fluid or tissue
samples from humans or animals. Such samples can be
obtained by methods well known in the art. Exemplary
biological fluid samples include blood, cerebrospinal
fluid, urine, saliva. Exemplary tissue samples include
tumors and biopsies. In this context; the present
compounds can be in numerous applications, both
therapeutic and experimental.
"Radiosensitizer," as used herein, means a
compound, administered to a human or other animal in a
therapeutically effective amount to increase the
sensitivity of cells to electromagnetic radiation and/or
to promote the treatment of diseases treatable with
electromagnetic radiation.
"Radiation" as used herein includes/ but is
not limited to, radiation having wavelengths in the range
of 10"20 to 100 meters.
The term "container" means any receptacle and
closure therefor suitable for storing, shipping,
dispensing, and/or handling a pharmaceutical product.

The term "package insert" means information
accompanying the product that provides a description of
how to administer the product, along with the safety and
efficacy data required to allow the physician,
pharmacist, and patient to make an informed decision
regarding use of the product. The package insert
generally is regarded as the "label" for a pharmaceutical
product.
The present invention includes all possible
stereoisomers and geometric isomers of the compounds of
structural formula (I) or (II) . The present invention
includes not only racemic compounds, but optically active isomers as well. When a compound of structural formula
(I) or (II) is desired as a single enantiomer, it can be
obtained either by resolution of the final product or by
stereospecific synthesis from either isomerically pure
starting material or use of a chiral auxiliary reagent,
for example, see Z. Ma et al., Tetrahedron: Asymmetry,
8(6), 883-888 (1997). Resolution of the final product,
an intermediate, or a starting material can be achieved
by any suitable method known in the art. Additionally,
in situations where tautomers of the compounds of
structural formula (I) or (II) are possible, the present
invention is intended to include all tautomeric forms of
the compounds. As demonstrated below, specific
stereoisomers can exhibit an exceptional ability to
inhibit Chkl in combination with chemotherapeutic or
radiotherapeutic treatments.
Prodrugs of compounds of structural formula
(I) or (II) also can be used as the compound in a method
of the present invention. It is well established that a
prodrug approach, wherein a compound is derivatized into
a form suitable for formulation and/or administration,

then released as a drug in vivo, has been successfully
employed to transiently (e.g., bioreversibly) alter the
physicochemical properties of the compound (see, H.
Bundgaard, Ed., "Design of Prodrugs," Elsevier,
Amsterdam, (1985); R.B. Silverman, "The Organic Chemistry
of Drug Design and Drug Action," Academic Press, San
Diego, chapter 8, (1992); K.M-. Hillgren et al., Med. Res.
Rev., 15, 83 (1995)) .
Compounds of the present invention contain one
or more functional groups. The functional groups, if
desired or necessary, can be modified to provide a
prodrug. Suitable prodrugs include, for example, acid
derivatives, such as amides and esters. It also is
appreciated by those skilled in the art that N-oxides can
be used as a prodrug.
Compounds of the invention can exist as salts.
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of the
invention generally are preferred in the methods of the
invention. As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically
acceptable salts" refers to salts or zwitterionic forms
of the compounds of structural formula (I) or (II).
Salts of compounds of formula (I) or (II) can be prepared
during the final isolation and purification of the
compounds or separately by reacting the compound with an
acid having a suitable cation. Suitable pharmaceutically
acceptable cations include alkali metal (e.g., sodium or
potassium) and alkaline earth metal (e.g., calcium or
magnesium) cations. In addition, the pharmaceutically
acceptable salts of compounds of structural formula (I)
or (II) that contain a basic center are acid addition
salts formed with pharmaceutically acceptable acids.
Examples of acids which can be employed to form
pharmaceutically acceptable salts include inorganic acids

such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic,sulfuric, and
phosphoric, and organic acids such as oxalic, maleic,
succinic, malonic, and citric. Nonlimiting examples of
salts of compounds of the invention include, but are not
limited to, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide,
sulfate, bisulfate, 2-hydroxyethansulfonate, phosphate,
hydrogen phosphate, acetate, adipate, alginate,
aspartate, benzoate, butyrate, camphorate,
camphorsulfonate, citrate, digluconate, glycerolphsphate,
hemisulfate, heptanoate, hexanoate, formate, succinate,
malonate, fumarate, maleate, methanesulfonate,
mesitylenesulfonate, naphthylenesulfonate, nicotinate, 2-
naphthalenesulfonate, oxalate, pamoate, pectinate,
persulfate, 3-phenylproprionate, picrate, pivalate,
propionate, trichloroacetate, trifluoroacetate,
glutamate, bicarbonate, paratoluenesulfonate,
undecanoate, lactate, citrate, tartrate, gluconate,
benzene sulphonate, and p-toluenesulphonate salts. In
addition, available amino groups present' in the compounds
of the invention can be quaternized with methyl, ethyl,
propyl, and butyl chlorides, bromides, and iodides;
dimethyl, diethyl, dibutyl, and diamyl sulfates; decyl,
lauryl, myristyl, and steryl chlorides, bromides, and
iodides; and benzyl and phenethyl bromides. In light of
the foregoing, any reference to compounds of the present
invention appearing herein is intended to include
compounds of structural formula (I) or (II) as well as
pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, or prodrugs
thereof.

and


or salts, solvates (e.g., hydrates), or prodrugs thereof.
The compounds of the present invention can be
therapeutically administered as the neat chemical, but it
is preferable to administer the compounds as a
pharmaceutical composition or formulation. Thus, the
present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition
comprising a compound of the formula (I) or (II) together
with a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent or carrier
therefor. Also provided is a process of preparing a
pharmaceutical composition comprising admixing a compound
of formula (I) or (II) with a pharmaceutically acceptable
diluent or carrier therefor.
Accordingly, the present invention further
provides pharmaceutical formulations comprising a
compound of structural formula (I) or (II), or a
pharmaceutically acceptable salt, prodrug, or solvate
thereof, together with one or more pharmaceutically
acceptable carriers and, optionally, other therapeutic
and/or prophylactic ingredients. The carriers are
"acceptable" in the sense of being compatible with the
other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious
to the recipient thereof.

Compounds of the invention exhibit
unexpectedly high potency. Potency typically is
expressed as the concentration of a compound required to
achieve a certain result. The greater the potency, the
less compound required to perform its intended function.
In vitro potency typically is expressed in terras of IC50
values and measured using a dose-response assay. IC50
values can be measured by contacting a sensitive assay
system with a compound of interest over a range of
concentrations, including concentrations at which no or
minimal effect is observed, through higher concentrations
at which partial effect is observed, to saturating
concentrations at which a maximum effect is observed.
Theoretically, such assays of the dose-response effect of
inhibitor compounds can be described as a sigmoidal curve
expressing a degree of inhibition as a function of
concentration when plotted on a log scale. The curve
also theoretically passes through a point at which the
concentration is sufficient to reduce activity of the
checkpoint enzyme to a level that is 50% that of the
difference between minimal and maximal enzyme activity
observed in the assay. This concentration is defined as
the Inhibitory Concentration at 50% inhibition or IC50
value.
ICS0 values can be determined using
conventional biochemical (acellular) assay techniques or
cell-based assay techniques well known to those of
ordinary skill in the art. An example of such an assay
is provided in Example 1 below.
Preferably, IC5o values are obtained by
performing the relevant assay at least twice, with the
IC50 value expressed as the average (arithmetic mean, or
"mean") of the individual values obtained. More

preferably, the assay is repeated from 3 to 10 (or more)
times, with the IC50 value expressed as the mean of the
values obtained. Most preferably, the assay is performed
a number of times sufficient to generate a statistically
reliable mean IC50 value, using statistical methods known
to those of ordinary skill in the art.
Compounds of the invention 'exhibit
unexpectedly low IC50 values, corresponding to
unexpectedly high in vitro potency. Compounds of the
invention, when assayed as described in Example 1 below,
exhibit IC50 values of less than about 200 nM, in some
embodiments less than about 150 nM, in other embodiments
less than about 100 nM, in others less than about 50 nM,
in others less than about 10 nM, and in others less than
about 5 nM. In other embodiments, the compounds of the
invention exhibit IC50 values from about 0.1 nM to about
5 nM.
Compounds of the invention exhibit selectivity
for inhibiting Chkl over other protein kinases.
Selectivity may be advantageous in reducing adverse side
effects and/or increasing therapeutic index.
"Selectivity" is expressed herein as "fold
selectivity." In general, fold selectivity, as used
herein, is the IC50 of a test compound for a comparison
enzyme divided by the IC50 of a comparator enzyme. In
particular, fold selectivity for a Chkl inhibitor, as
used herein, is the IC50 of a Chkl inhibitor (a test
compound) for Chkl (the comparison enzyme) divided by the
ICso for a comparator enzyme. Comparator enzymes against
which compounds of the invention may be measured include
at least the following protein kinases: Cdc2, Chk2,
CTAK, EphAl, EphA2, Erkl, FGFR1, FGFR4, IR, JNKl, c-Kit,
p38alpha, p38beta, p38delta, Ros, Rse, Rsk2, TrkA, TrkB,

protein kinas A, protein kinas C, pp60v-src, protein
kinase B/Akt-1, p38MapK, p70S6K, calcium calmodulin-
dependent kinase II, and abl tyrosine kinase.
Assays for determining ICS0 values for a test
compound against a comparator enzyme are described in
Example 2 and are well known to those of ordinary skill
in the art. Compounds of the invention exhibit at least
about 20-fold selectivity over the aforementioned protein
kinases tested, in some embodiments, Chkl inhibitors of
the present invention exhibit at least about 50-fold
selectivity, in other embodiments at least about 75-fold
. selectivity, in other embodiments at least about 100-fold
selectivity in inhibiting Chkl over the aforementioned
protein kinases tested.
The compounds of the invention exhibit
unexpectedly high potency in a cell-based assay. To
measure cell-based potency of a Chkl inhibitor, an assay
was developed that allows one to measure the
concentration of Chkl inhibitor required to increase the
growth-inhibiting effects of a DNA damaging agent in a
cell-based model involving aberrantly proliferating
cells." This measure of cell-based potency, is expressed
herein as an "ECTrs" value, where "ECTFS" is the Effective
Concentration of Chkl inhibitor that produces a Two-Fold
Sensitization of a population of aberrantly proliferating
cells to the growth-inhibiting effects of a DNA damaging
agent. ECTFs is calculated to be the concentration of
Chkl inhibitor that reduces the amount of DNA damaging
agent required for 90% inhibition of cell growth by half.
Applicants have found that the compounds of the invention
exhibit unexpectedly low ECTFS values, corresponding to
unexpectedly high cell-based potency.

Another parameter that may be measured is the
the fold sensitization achieved at the LD50 (the dose of
compound alone that' inhibits growth of 50% of cells) for
the Chkl inhibitor compound. These two values, BCTFS and
fold sensitization at the LD50, allow direct ranking of
both the potency and toxicity of Chkl inhibitors with
respect to one another.
An example of an assay useful to measure ECTFS
values is described in Example 3 below. Briefly, this
assay uses. HT29 human colon carcinoma cells as the
population of aberrantly proliferating cells, gemcitabine
as the DNA damaging agent/Chkl activator, and a compound
of the invention as the Chkl inhibitor. The population
of aberrantly proliferating cells is cultured and allowed
to grow in a suitable growth medium. Subsequently, the
cells are subjected to the DNA damaging agent over a
range of concentrations. After a predetermined amount of
time, the DNA damaging agent is removed, and the cells
are subjected to a Chkl inhibitor over a range of
concentrations and for a predetermined period of time.
The plates of cultured cells then are harvested and the
relative number of surviving cells is counted.- The data
is normalized against Chkl inhibitor alone as control,
and then plotted on a log/log graph of DNA damaging agent
concentration vs. relative cell survival (100% equaling
1.0). The fold sensitization is derived from the
difference between the amount of DNA damaging agent
required to achieve 90% growth inhibition with and
without Chkl inhibitor for each concentration of Chkl
inhibitor used. These data then are plotted on a graph
of Chkl inhibitor concentration vs. fold sensitization,
from which ECTFs is calculated.

Preferably ECTFs values are obtained by
performing the assay at least twice, with the ECTFS value
expressed as the mean of the individual values obtained.
More preferably, the assay is repeated from 3 to 10 (or
more) times, with the ECTFS value expressed as the mean of
the values obtained. Most preferably, the assay is
performed a number of times necessary to generate a
statistically reliable mean ECTFS value, using statistical
methods known to those of ordinary skill in the art.
All compounds that were subject to an ECTFS
assay exhibited ECTFS values of less than about 1000 nM.
In contrast, structurally similar compounds that are
previously known exhibit ECTFS values of about 11,000 nM.
In some embodiments, compounds of the present invention
exhibit ECTFS values of less than about 500 nM, in others
less than about 300 nM, in others less than about 200 nM,
in others less than about 150nM, in others less than
about 100 nM, in others less than abut 50 nM, in others
less than about 30 nM, and in others less than about
20 nM, or less than about 10 nM, or in other embodiments
less than about 5 nM.
Compounds and pharmaceutical compositions
suitable for use in the present invention include those
wherein the active ingredient is administered in an
effective amount to achieve its intended purpose. More
specifically, a "therapeutically effective amount" means
an amount sufficient to treat an individual suffering an
indication, or to alleviate the existing symptoms of the
indication. Determination of a therapeutically effective
amount is well within the capability of those skilled in
the art, especially in light of the detailed disclosure
provided herein.

In addition to the Chkl inhibitor,
pharmaceutical compositions of the invention can be
formulated to include biologically active agents, such as
cytokines, lymphokines, growth factors, other
hematopoietic factors, or mixtures thereof, to reduce
adverse side effects that can arise from, or be
associated with, administration of the pharmaceutical
composition alone. Alternatively, such biologically
active agents may be included in the pharmaceutical
composition of the invention to promote a desired
therapeutic effect. Adjuvant biologically active agents

The compounds of structural formulae (I) and
(II) also can be conjugated or linked to auxiliary
moieties that promote a beneficial property (or mitigate
an undesirable property) of the compounds in a method of
therapeutic use. Such conjugates can enhance delivery of
the compounds to a particular anatomical site or region

(for example, lactose, sugar, raicrocrystalline cellulose,
maize-starch, calcium phosphate, or sorbitol), lubricants
(for example, magnesium stearate, stearic acid, talc,
polyethylene glycol or silica), disintegrants (for
example, potato starch or sodium starch glycolate), or
wetting agents (for example, sodium lauryl sulfate). The
tablets can be coated according to methods well known in
the art.
Alternatively, compounds of the present
invention can be incorporated into oral liquid
preparations such'as aqueous or oily suspensions,
solutions, emulsions, syrups, or elixirs, for example.
Moreover, formulations containing these compounds can be
presented as a dry product for constitution with water or
other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid
preparations can contain conventional additives, for
example suspending agents, such as sorbitol syrup, methyl
cellulose, glucose/sugar syrup, gelatin,
hydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose,
carboxymethylcellulose, aluminum stearate gel, and
hydrogenated edible fats; emulsifying agents, such as
lecithin, sorbitan monooleate, or acacia; nonaqueous
vehicles (which can include edible oils), such as almond
oil, fractionated coconut oil, oily esters, propylene
glycol, and ethyl alcohol; and preservatives, such as
methyl or propyl p-hydroxybenzoate and sorbic acid.
Preparations also can' be formulated as
suppositories, e.g., containing conventional suppository
bases, such as cocoa butter or other glycerides.
Compositions for inhalation typically can be provided in
the form of a solution, suspension, or emulsion that can
be administered as a dry powder or in the form of an

aerosol using a conventional propellant, such as
dichlorodifluoromethane or trichloroflu'oromethane.
Topical and transdermal formulations comprise
conventional aqueous or nonaqueous vehicles, such as eye
drops, creams, ointments, lotions, and pastes, or are in
the form of a medicated plaster, patch, or membrane.
Additionally, compositions of the present
invention can be formulated for administration by
injection or continuous infusion. Formulations for
injection can be in the form of suspensions, solutions,
or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and can contain
formulation agents, such as suspending, stabilizing,
and/or dispersing agents. Alternatively, the active
ingredient can be in powder form for constitution with a
suitable vehicle (e.g., sterile, pyrogen-free water)
before use.
A composition, of the present invention also
can be formulated as a depot preparation. Such long
acting formulations can be administered by implantation
(for example, subcutaneously or intramuscularly) or by
intramuscular injection. Accordingly, the compounds of
the invention can be formulated with suitable polymeric
materials (e.g., water-soluble polymers) hydrophobic
materials (e.g., an emulsion in an acceptable oil), ion
exchange resins, or sparingly soluble derivatives (e.g.,
a sparingly soluble salt).
For veterinary use, a compound of formula (I)
or (II), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, prodrug,
or solvate thereof, is administered as a suitably
acceptable formulation in accordance with normal
veterinary practice. The veterinarian can readily
determine the dosing regimen and route of administration
that is most appropriate for a particular animal.

Animals treatable by the present compounds and methods
include, but are not limited to, pets, livestock, show
animals, and zoo specimens.
SYNTHETIC METHODS
The compounds of the present invention can be
prepared by the following synthetic schemes. First, the
alkoxyarylamines used to prepare the Chkl inhibitors
described herein can be prepared by different general
synthetic schemes. For example, General Scheme 1
summarizes the reaction of a nitrophenol with an
activated form of an alcohol, formed in situ or prepared
and isolated independently, to provide a nitrophenyl
ether product. Reduction of the ether under standard
conditions provides an arylamine that is used to produce
a compound of the invention.
General Scheme 1

Alternatively, reaction of a halo nitrobenzene with an
alcohol in the presence of a strong base, such as sodium
hydride or potassium bis (trirmethylsilyl) amide, also
affords nitroaryl ethers, as illustrated in General
Scheme 2. These ethers then are reduced as indicated in
General Scheme 1.

General Scheme 2

Conversion of an arylamine to a urea can be
achieved by one of several synthetic schemes. For
example, an arylamine can be reacted with a pyrazine
carbamate to yield a urea as illustrated in General
Scheme 3.
General Scheme 3

Alternatively, as outlined in General Scheme 4, heat
induced decomposition of an acyl azide produces a
reactive aryl isocyanate which then is allowed to react
with an arylamine to yield the desired urea.
General Scheme 4

Another approach, illustrated in General Scheme 5,
utilizes phosgene or a phosgene equivalent to couple two
arylamines and provide a urea.

Preparation of Compounds
The following compounds of the present
invention were prepared using the general schemes
disclosed above. Additional compounds of the invention
can be prepared using the above general schemes, and the
following specific syntheses, by a judicious selection of
starting materials.

Compound 1

1- [5-Chloro-2-S- ([1,4] oxazepan-2-ylmethoxy) -phenyl]-3-(5-
methyl-pyrazin-2-yl)-urea
Step 1: 2-Amino-5~methylpyrazine.
Aminomalononitrile p-toluenesulfonate salt (20.0 g, 79
mmol) and pyruvaldehyde 1-oxime (6.88 g, 79 mmol) were
combined in a flask. iPrOH (140 mL) was added, and the
resulting yellow slurry was allowed to stir at room
temperature for 18 h, during which time a yellow
precipitate accumulated. The mixture was filtered and
the precipitate was washed with iPrOH (2 x 50 mL) and DI
H20 (20 mL), then lyophilized to give 2-amino-3-cyano-5-
methypyrazine N-oxide (10.7 g).
The pyrazine N-oxide was suspended in MeOH (22
mL) and AcOH (5 mL). To this, 5% Pt/C (1.6 g) and Darco
KB-B (8 g) were carefully added. The mixture was allowed
to absorb H2 at 60 psi for 18 h. The reaction was
quenched with 25% NaOH (34 mL) and purged with N2 for 30
min. The mixture was filtered through a bed of wet
celite and washed with MeOH (4 x 100 mL). The filtrate
was concentrated in vacuo to a quarter volume. The
filtrate was diluted with EtOAc (150 mL) and washed with
5% NaOH (30 mL) and back extracted with EtOAc (2 x 70
mL). The organic layers were combined and washed with
sat'd NaCl (20 mL), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo
to give an orange sticky solid (5.16 g).

Step 2: (5-Methylpyrazin~2-yl) carbamic acid
phenyl ester. 2-And.no-5-methylpyrazi.ne (5.16 g, 47 mmol)
was dissolved in CHZC12 (52 mL) , stirred and cooled to 0°C
under N2. To this, pyridine (4.8 mL, 59 mmol) was added
followed by phenyl chloroformate (6.2 mL, 59 mmol) ,
dropwise, over 15 min, causing a precipitate to form.
The mixture was stirred at 0°C for 1 h. Then the
reaction was quenched with 0.25 M HCl (40 mL) and
anhydrous ether (50 mL), and stirred at 0°C, for 30 min.
The precipitate was isolated by filtration, washed with
DI H20 (20 mL) and ether (2 x 25 mL) , and dried under
vacuum to give the product (7.4 g) as a white fluffy
powder.
Step 3: (5)-2-Hydroxymethyl-[l,4]oxazepane-4-
carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester. To a 250 mL round
bottom flask were added (S)-(+)-benzyl glycidyl ether,
(1.31 g, 7.9 mmol), 3-benzylamino-propan-l-ol (1.3 g, 7.9
mmol) and 10 mL EtOH. The mixture was heated to 40°C for
15 h. The reaction was cooled and concentrated in vacuo
and the resulting oily product was used without further
purification. The diol was placed in a 250 mL round
bottom flask and dissolved in 75 mL dry pyridine. The
solution was cooled to 0°C and toluene sulfonyl chloride
(5.27 g, 27.7 mmol) was added in one portion. The
mixture was stirred for 6 h, carefully maintaining the
reaction temperature at 0°C. The cold reaction was
quenched with 50 mL sat'd aqueous NaHC03 solution. An
additional 20 mL of water was added and the mixture was
extracted three times with 100 mL portions of EtOAc. The
combined organics were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated
in vacuo. The alcohol then was purified by column
chromatography using a 25-50% gradient of EtOAc and

hexanes as the eluent. This yielded 1.39 g of tosyl
alcohol as a yellow oil.
The alcohol was dissolved in 50 mL DMF and
cooled to 0CC. To the cold, stirred mixture was
carefully added 95% wt. NaH (0.29 g, 11.5 mmol) . The
reaction was stirred at 0°C for 15 min, then allowed to
slowly warm to room temperature and stirred 6 h. The
reaction was carefully quenched with 50 mL of water and
extracted three times with 50 mL portions of EtOAc. The
combined organics were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated
under vacuum. The crude product was taken up in EtOH and
placed in a Parr hydrogenation apparatus. Also added to
the solution were 10% wt. Pd/C (0.426 g, 0.30 mmol) and
2M HC1 (2.1 mL). The hydrogenation was run at 50 psi for
2 days at which point the reaction was deemed to be done
by LCMS analysis. The solution was neutralized with
sat'd aqueous NaHC03 solution and extracted using a 3:1
mixture of CHCl3:iPrOH. The combined organics were
concentrated under vacuum and the crude product was taken
on to the next step.
The crude amino alcohol was dissolved in 100
mL dry CH2C12. To this solution were added TEA (1.59 mL,
11.5 mmol) and di-tert-butyl dicarbonate (5.74 g, 5.74
mmol). The solution was stirred at room temperature for
18 h, then quenched with sat'd aqueous NaHC03 solution
and extracted three times using 50 mL portions of CH2CI2.
The combined organics were dried over Na2SO4 and
concentrated in vacuo. The product was purified by
column chromatography using a 25-50% gradient of
EtOAc/hexanes. This yielded 0.240 g of the oxazapane
alcohol as a yellow oil.
Step 4: (S)-2-(4-Chloro-2-nitro-
phenoxymethyl)-[1,4]oxazepane-4-carboxylic acid tert-

butyl ester. To a 50 mL round bottom were added
oxazapane alcohol (0.240 g, 1.03 mmol), TEA (0.21 mL,
1.545 mmol), and 10 ml dry CH2C12. The solution was
cooled to 0°C and methane sulfonyl chloride (0.10 mL) was
added dropwise. The mixture was stirred for 1.5 h at 0°C
and then quenched, cold, with water. The layers were
separated and the aqueous layer was extracted once with
20 mL CH2C12. The combined organics were dried over
Na2SO« and concentrated under vacuum. The crude mesylate
then was dissolved' in 5 mL dry DMF. To this solution was
added Cs2C03 (0.671 g, 2.06 mmol) and 4-chloro-2-nitro-
phenol (0.215 g, 1.24 mmol). This bright yellow solution
then was heated to 100°C overnight. The reaction was
cooled to room temperature, quenched with 50 mL of water,
and extracted three times with 50 mL portions of EtOAc.
The product was purified by flash chromatography using a
10-35% gradient of EtOAc/hexanes. This sequence of steps
yielded 0.120 g of the nitrophenyl oxazapane as a bright
yellow oil.
Step 5: l-[5-Chloro-2-([l,4)oxazepan-2-(S)-
ylmethoxy)-phenyl]-3-(5-methyl-pyrazin-2-yl)-urea. In a
25 mL round bottom were placed nitrophenyl oxazapane
(0.120 g, 0.31 mmol) and Pt20 (0.007 g, 0.03 mmol) in 5
mL MeOH. A helium balloon was attached, the flask was
evacuated using an aspirator, and backfilled with H2
three times, then allowed to stir under H2 for 2 h. The
reaction was filtered through celite, washing the celite
pad twice with 20 mL portions of MeOH. The solution was
concentrated in vacuo. The crude aniline was dissolved
in 5 mL of dry DMF. To this solution were added TEA
(0.005 mL, 0.34 mmol) and (5-methylpyrazin-2-yl) carbamic
acid phenyl ester (0.07 g, 0.31 mmol). This mixture was
stirred 18 h at room temperature. The solvent was

removed under vacuum and the residue was redissolved in
10 mL EtOAc and washed with sat'd aqueous NaHC03
solution. The organics were dried over Na2SO« and
concentrated at reduced pressure. The gray/brown residue
was covered with 3 raL CH2C12 and to this was added 1 mL
concentrated trifluoroacetic acid. Upon addition of acid
all solids dissolved. The reaction was stirred at room
temperature for 4 h at which time sat'd aqueous NaHC03
solution is added until solution reaches pH 8. The
mixture was extracted three times with 10 mL portions of
a 3:1 mixture of CHCl3:iPrOH. The combined organics were
then dried over NazSO4 and concentrated under vacuum. The
off white solids then were trituated in EtOAc and
filtered through a medium fritted filter, washing with 50
mL of EtOAc. The white solid was thoroughly dried under
vacuum. This sequence yielded 0.020 g of the desired
urea as a fine white powder. ^-NMR (300 MHz, d6-DMSO) 5

1- [5-Chloro-2- ( [ 1,4] oxazepan-2-ylmethoxy).-phenyl ] -3- (5-
methyl-pyrazin-2-yl)-urea
Step 1: 3-Benzyl-2-chloromethyl-
[l,3]oxaze'pane. A solution of 3-benzylamino-propan-l-ol
(14 g, 88.0 mmol) and epichlorohydrin (81.4 g, 8 80 ramol)
was heated to 40°C. After stirring for 3 h the reaction
was cooled and excess epichlorohydrin was removed by
evaporation in vacuo. Sulfuric acid 410 mL) was added
slowly, then the reaction flask was placed in a preheated
oil bath at 150°C. Stirring proceeded for 1 h, then the
reaction was allowed to cool to room temperature and
quenched with the addition of ice. The mixture was
adjusted to a basic pH with 10% aqueous Na2C03 solution
and extracted with EtOAc (3 x 300 mL) . The combined
organic layers were dried over anhydrous MgSO4, filtered,

and dried under reduced pressure. The resulting residue
was purified by flash chromatography (70:28:2
hexanes/CH2Cl2/2M NH,OH aq) to afford 5 g of a light
yellow oil.
Step 2: 2- (4-Chloro~2-nitro-phenoxymethyl)-
[1,3]oxazepane-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester. To a
stirred solution of 4-bromo-2-nitro-phenol (1.39 g, 8.0
mmol) in DMSO (30 mL) .was added potassium carbonate (2.76
g, 20.0 mmol) followed by 3-benzyl-2-chloromethyl-
[l,3]oxazepane. The reaction was stirred at 60°C for 12
h then allowed to cool to room temperature and diluted
with EtOAc (200 mL) and 10% aqueous Na2C03 solution (200
mL) . The layers were separated and the organic layer was
washed with brine, dried over anhydrous MgSO* anci
concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by
flash chromatography (70:30 hexanes/EtOAc) to gi~ve 480 mg
of a light orange oil.
The oil was taken up in CH2C12 (5 mL) and
cooled in an ice bath. The alpha chloro ethyl
chloroformate (0.18 mL, 1.65 mmol) was added. The
reaction was stirred for 2 h, then 2N aqueous HC1
solution was added. Stirring was continued for 10 min,
then the mixture was concentrated to dryness. Trie
resulting residue was taken up in MeOH and refluxed for 2
h. The reaction was concentrated under reduced pressure
and the residue was taken up in 2N aqueous HC1 solution
(75 mL) and washed with EtOAc (2 x 50 mL) . The pH of the •
aqueous layer was adjusted to a pH of 11 by the addition
of solid NaOH. The resulting basic solution was
extracted with EtOAc (2 x 50 mL) and the combined organic
layers were washed with brine and dried over MgSO«.
Filtration and concentration in vacuo afforded 2 4 0 mg of
product as a light yellow oil.

The oil was dissolved in CH2C12 (3 mL) , then
treated with TEA (0.116 mL, 0.831 mmol) and di-tert-butyl
dicarbonate (0.181 g, 0.831 mmol). The reaction was
allowed to stir at room temperature for 1 h then diluted
with additional CH2Cl2 (100 mL) and washed with 10%
aqueous Na2C03 solution (100 mL) . The organic layer was
dried over MgSO«, filtered and concentrated under reduced
pressure. Purification was achieved using flash
chromatography (7:3 hexane/EtOAc) to give 252 mg of the
product as of a white foam.

1-[5-Methyl-2- (1 -methyl-piperazin-2-ylmethoxy) -phenyl]-3-
(5-methyl-pyrazin-2-yl) -urea
Step 1: 3-Hydroxymethyl-4-methyl-piperazine-
1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester. Piperazine-2-
carboxylic acid (20 g, 154 iranol) in a slurry with 200 mL
of 1:1 H20/dioxane was cooled in an ice bath and treated
with solid NaOH (11 g) followed by a solution of di-tert-
butyl dicarbonate (21.6 g, 99 mmole) in dioxane added
dropwise from an addition funnel. The reaction pH was
adjusted to pH>10 as needed during the course of the
reaction. The resulting mixture was allowed to stir for
3 h, then diluted with water until homogeneous and
acidified with concentrated aqueous HC1 until the pH was
between 2 and 3. The solution was washed with ether then
the pH was adjusted with NaOH until pH was 6.5 to 7. The
solution was allowed to stand several days and the
resulting precipitate was collected by filtration to give
piperazine-1,3-dicarboxylic acid 1-tert-butyl ester as a
white solid (9.7 g).
A slurry of piperazine-1,3-dicarboxylic acid
1-tert-butyl ester (4.62 g, 20.0 mmol) in CH3OH (100 mL)
was treated with aqueous formaldehyde (40 mmol) and
formic acid (70 mmol), then heated at 65CC for several
hours. Upon completion by HPLC, the reaction was allowed
to cool and was concentrated in vacuo.

The residue was taken up in THF and cooled in
an ice bath, then treated with a solution of lithium
aluminum hydride in THF (19.0 mmol) . After 1 h, the
reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature and
stired for an additional 30 min. The reaction then was
cooled in an ice bath and quenched with H20 (0.7 5 mL) and
15% aqueous NaOH solution (0.75 mL) , and H20 again (3 x
0.75 mL) . The salts were removed by filtration and the
filtrate concentrated under vacuum to' give the crude
product. Chromatography over silica gel (2.5% MeOH in
CH2C12) gave the product as a yellow oil (0.70 g) .
