CEP-28122 is a Highly Potent and Selective Orally Active Inhibitor of Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase with Antitumor Activity in Experimental Models of Human Cancers. (source: Mol Cancer Ther; 11(3); 670-9.)
CEP-28122 is used as an orally efficacious inhibitor of (ALK), analplastic lymphoma kinase, in the treatment of cancer.
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) member of the insulin receptor superfamily identified as part of the NPM–ALK fusion gene in anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) with a t(2;5) chromosomal translocation.(1) ALK, when fused with NPM, is constitutively activated and shown to be involved in proliferation and survival of a variety of human cancers.(2) The aberrant signaling of ALK resulting from rearrangements or mutations/gene amplification leads to an “oncogenic addiction” which can be targeted with kinase inhibitors.(3)
 Crizotinib is the first ALK inhibitor to be approved and has shown a clinical impact with patients that are highly refractory.(4) The need for novel ALK inhibitors to impact emergence of resistance mechanisms as well as to provide improved kinase selectivity profiles is of great importance. CEP-28122 is a selective, potent ALK inhibitor, demonstrating robust antitumor efficacy in tumor xenograft mouse models, which advanced into preclinical development.(5)
 It is a complex small molecule comprised of three core subunits, two of which contain one or more chiral centers

Various ALK inhibitors have been reported, such as indazoloisoquinolines (WO 2005/009389), thiazole amides and oxazole amides (WO 2005/097765), pyrrolopyrimidines (WO 2005080393), and pyrimidinediamines (WO 2005/016894).

WO 2008/051547 discloses fused bicyclic derivatives of 2,4-diaminopyrimidine as ALK and c-Met inhibitors. The lead drug candidate disclosed in the ‘547 application is CEP-28122, a potent ALK inhibitor with oral efficacy against SUP-M2 and Karpas-299 ALK-dependent tumors in mouse xenograft models. CEP-28122 progressed to IND- enabling studies until its development was terminated due to the unexpected occurrence of severe lung toxicity in CEP-28122-treated monke s.

Example 1047: (lS,2S,3R,4R)-3-[5-Chloro-2-(3-methoxy-7-moφholin-4-yl-6,7,8,9- tetrahydro-5H-benzocyclohepten-2-ylarnino)-pyrimidin-4-ylamino]- bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2-carboxylic acid amide (Single Diasteromer A) 1047a) (2-Hydroxymethyl-4-methoxy-phenyl)-methanol To a stirred suspension of Lithium tetrahydroaluminate (16.6 g, 0.436 mol) in Tetrahydrofuran (300 mL, 4 mol) at 0 °C under nitrogen was added dropwise a solution of 4-Methoxy-phthalic acid dimethyl ester (24.46 g, 0.1091 mol) in Tetrahydrofuran (100 mL, 1 mol). The reaction was stirred at 0 °C for 1 h then warmed to room temperature overnight. HPLC indicated no starting material present. Reaction was recooled at 0 °C and quenched with addition of water (125 mL) carefully dropwise, 1 N NaOH (100 mL) and water (125 mL). Evolution of gas was observed upon initial quenching with water. A white solid precipitated out of solution (aluminum salts). Following complete quenching of the reaction mixture, the aluminum salts were removed by filtration. The filtrate was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to provide 17.80 grams (97%) of (2-Hydroxvmethyl-4-methoxy- phenyl)-methanol as a colorless oil.

From an adapted procedure in Helvetic Chimica Acta, 2001, 84, 2051-2063, to a stirred solution of Tetra-n-butyl ammonium iodide (12.1 g, 0.0326 mol) in 0.6 M of Sodium bicarbonate in Water (300 mL) and Methylene chloride (130 mL, 2.1 mol) was added a solution of 1 ,2-Bis-bromomethyl-4-methoxy-benzene (16.00 g, 0.05442 mol) and 3- Oxopentanedioic acid, diethyl ester (14.31 g, 0.07075 mol) in Methylene chloride (40 mL, 0.6 mol). The solution was stirred vigorously at room temperature for -20 h. Saturated ammonium chloride solution was added to the reaction mixture. The product was extracted with ethyl acetate (3 X 100 mL). The ethyl acetate extracts were washed with water and brine, then dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to a yellow oil. The oil was triturated with ether and a precipitate crashed out of solution and was removed by filtration (tetrabutyl ammonium salts). The filtrate was concentrated to an oil (20.0 grams, 100%) that was carried on to the next step without further purification. 1047d) 2-Methoxy-5,6,8,9-tetrahydro-benzocyclohepten-7-one

2-Methoxy-7-oxo-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-benzocycloheptene-6,8-dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester (18.2 g, 0.0544 mol) was dissolved in ethanol and the solution was treated with Potassium hydroxide (24.4 g, 0.435 mol) in Water (14O g, 7.6 mol). The reaction was then refluxed until HPLC showed consumption of starting material (~5 hours). The reaction was then acidified with IN HCl and the product was extracted with dichloromethane.

Organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and reduced. The crude mixture was filtered through a plug of silica rinsing with dichloromethane before purification. The crude mixture was purified by Isco flash column chromatography (Hexane/Ethyl Acetate).
