Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is a constitutively active, ubiquitous serine/threonine kinase that takes part in a number of physiological processes ranging from glycogen metabolism to apoptosis. GSK-3 is a key mediator of various signaling pathways, such as the Wnt and the insulin/AKT signaling pathways.
Therefore, dysregulation of GSK-3 has been linked to various human diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, and neurodegenerative diseases.Two related isoforms of GSK-3 exist in mammals, GSK-3α and -β, which share a sequence identity within their catalytic domains of 98%.
Beyond the catalytic domains they show significant differences. Although these isoforms are structurally related, they are not functionally equivalent, and one cannot compensate for loss of the other.
The debate on the respective contributions of the isoforms GSK-3α and GSK-3β on the pathogenesis of different diseases is ongoing.
Various studies indicate that the therapies of certain diseases benefit from specific targeting of GSK-3α and GSK-3β. GSK-3α was recently identified as a differentiation target in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). AML is a hematopoietic malignancy defined by uncontrolled proliferation and disrupted myeloid differentiation. AML is the second most common form of leukemia in adults.
The current treatment of AML with conventional chemotherapy is very aggressive yet ineffective for the majority of patients with the disease.Thus, alternative targeted treatment approaches for AML are highly desirable. GSK-3α recently emerged as a potential target in this disease.
PAPER

The challenge for glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) inhibitor design lies in achieving high selectivity for one isoform over the other. The therapy of certain diseases, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML), may require α-isoform specific targeting. The scorpion shaped GSK-3 inhibitors developed by our group achieved the highest GSK-3α selectivity reported so far but suffered from insufficient aqueous solubility. This work presents the solubility-driven optimization of our isoform-selective inhibitors using a scorpion shaped lead. Among 15 novel compounds, compound 27 showed high activity against GSK-3α/β with the highest GSK-3α selectivity reported to date. Compound 27 was profiled for bioavailability and toxicity in a zebrafish embryo phenotype assay. Selective GSK-3α targeting in AML cell lines was achieved with compound 27, resulting in a strong differentiation phenotype and colony formation impairment, confirming the potential of GSK-3α inhibition in AML therapy

Phosphoinositide-3 kinase delta inhibitor
AMGEN, PHASE 2

PI3K delta isoform selective inhibitor that is being investigated in human clinical trials for the treatment of PI3K-mediated conditions or disorders, such as cancers and/or proliferative diseases
Useful for treating PI3K-mediated disorders such as acute myeloid leukemia, myelo-dysplastic syndrome, myelo-proliferative diseases, chronic myeloid leukemia, T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, non-Hodgkins lymphoma, B-cell lymphoma, or breast cancer.
Amgen is developing AMG-319, a small molecule PI3K-δ inhibitor, for treating lymphoid malignancies and solid tumors including, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
AMG-319 is a highly selective, potent, and orally bioavailable small molecule inhibitor of the delta isoform of the 110 kDa catalytic subunit of class IA phosphoinositide-3 kinases (PI3K) with potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities. PI3K-delta inhibitor AMG 319 prevents the activation of the PI3K signaling pathway through inhibition of the production of the second messenger phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3), thus decreasing proliferation and inducing cell death. Unlike other isoforms of PI3K, PI3K-delta is expressed primarily in hematopoietic lineages. The targeted inhibition of PI3K-delta is designed to preserve PI3K signaling in normal, non-neoplastic cells.

Example 4: Method of making N-((lSM-(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)- 3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine
N-((l S)- 1 -(7-Fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine (4) is synthesized in four steps beginning with (S)-l-(7-fluoro-2-(pyridin-2-yl)quinolin-3-yl)ethanamine hydrochloride (1). A nucleophilic aromatic substitution between coupling partners 1 and purine 5 affords the penultimate intermediate 2. Cleavage of the p-methoxybenzyl (PMB) group leads to the isolation of the desired butyl acetate solvate 3. A crystalline form change is induced through an aqueous-acetone recrystallization to afford the target hydrate 4.
Synthetic Scheme

Step 1. Preparation of PMB protected pyridylpurinamine tosylate (2)
(S)- 1 -(7-Fluoro-2-(pyridin-2-yl)quinolin-3-yl)ethanamine is prepared similar to that described in US20130267524. The (S)-l-(7-fluoro-2-(pyridin-2-
yl)quinolin-3-yl)ethanamine hydrochloride (1) is coupled to PMB-chloropurine (5, prepared similar to that described in J. Med. Chem. 1988,31, 606-612) in the presence of K2CO3 in IPA. Upon reaction completion the K2CO3 is removed via filtration and the product is crystallized by the addition of /?-toluenesulfonic acid (pTSA). Isolation of the PMB-protected pyridylpurinamine tosylate (2) is conducted via filtration.

Dry 100 L reactor under nitrogen. Set the temperature to 20 ± 5 °C. Charge (l S)-N-chloro-l-(7-fluoro-2-(pyridin-2-yl)quinolin-3-yl)ethanamine HCl salt (1) to the reactor. Then 9-(4-methoxybenzyl)-6-chloro-9H-purine (5) is added. Potassium carbonate is added to the reactor. Isopropyl alcohol is added to the reactor and the mixture is heated to 80 °C and stirred for 24 hours. Additional isopropyl alcohol is added to the reactor and the mixture is cooled to 20 °C. The mixture is filtered through Celite and the solid is washed with isopropyl alcohol and the isopropyl alcohol solutions containing 9-(4-methoxybenzyl)-N-((S)- 1 -(7-fluoro-2-(pyridin-2-yl)quinolin-3-yl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine are collected.
The 9-(4-methoxybenzyl)-N-((S)- 1 -(7-fluoro-2-(pyridin-2-yl)quinolin-3-yl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine isopropyl alcohol solution is heated to 50 °C. /^-Toluene sulfonic acid monohydrate is dissolved in isopropyl alcohol and added to the 9-(4-methoxybenzyl)-N-((S)-l-(7-fluoro-2-(pyridin-2-yl)quinolin-3-yl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine in portions. The mixture is slowly cooled to 20 ± 5 °C over 6 ± 2 hrs. The crystalline 9-(4-methoxybenzyl)-N-((S)- 1 -(7-fluoro-2-(pyridin-2-yl)quinolin-3-yl)ethyl)- 9H-purin-6-amine toluene sulfonic acid salt is collected, rinsed with isopropyl alcohol and dried with vacuum.
Example 5: Method of Making the Crystalline Hydrate Form of N-((1S)-1- (7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine Step 1: Isolation of a Butyl Acetate (BuOAc) Solvate of N-((lS)-l-(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine (3)
To a 2 L jacketed reactor equipped with a condenser, a mechanical stirrer, and a bubbler, under an atmosphere of N2, was added N-((l S)-l-(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9-(4-methoxybenzyl)-9H-purin-6-amine (2, 100.0 g, 0.148 mol), followed by acetic acid (AcOH; 240 mL) and 1 -dodecanethiol (71.1 mL, 0.295 mol). The vessel was evacuated and back-filled with nitrogen three times. Methanesulfonic acid (MSA; 28.7 mL, 0.443 mol) was added to the vessel over 10 minutes. Then, the reaction was heated to 80 °C and stirred for 20 hrs. The reaction was then cooled to ambient temperature, after which toluene (1000 mL) and water (700 mL) were sequentially added. The solution was then stirred for 30 minutes. The phases were separated by removing the organic phase, adding another charge of toluene (1000 mL) to the aqueous phase, and the mixture was stirred for another 30 minutes. After removing the organic phase again, the aqueous phase was charged to a jacketed 5 L reactor equipped with a mechanical stirrer followed by n-butyl acetate (1500 mL,) and heated to 50 °C. The aqueous phase was neutralized to pH 6.3 with 10 N NaOH (350 mL). The organic (BuOAc) phase was azeotropically dried to 600 ppm water, while keeping a constant volume. The dried organic phase was polish filtered at 50 °C to remove salts, which were subsequently washed with hot BuOAc (285 mL). The BuOAc was charged back into the 2 L jacketed reactor equipped with a mechanical stirred and distillation apparatus, and then concentrated to 54 mg/g of N-((l S)-l-(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine in solution. The solution was then seeded with 1 wt% seed of the BuOAc solvate of N-((l S)- 1 -(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine. The slurry was further concentrated to 300 mL total volume and cooled to ambient temperature over 1 hour. Heptane (460 mL) was added dropwise to the solution, and the solution was aged overnight. The supernatant concentration was checked, and determined to be 5.3 mg/g of N-((l S)-l-(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine. The supernatant was filtered and the resulting solid cake was washed with 1 : 1 BuOAc:heptane (280 mL), followed by heptane (280 mL). The washed cake was then
allowed to dry on the filter. The BuOAc solvate of N-((l S)- l -(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine was obtained as a white solid (59.5 g, 99.6 LCAP, 86.3 wt%, 90 % corrected yield). !H NMR (400 MHz, CDC13) δ 13.72 (s, 1H), 8.80 (s, 1H), 8.37 (s, 1H), 8.31 (s, 1H), 8.09 (d, J = 7.8 Hz, 1H), 7.92 (d, J = 18.8 Hz, 2H), 7.76 (t, J = 1 1.6 Hz, 2H), 7.39 (s, 1H), 7.31 (td, J = 8.7, 2.5 Hz, 1H), 6.15 (s, 1H), 4.06 (t, J = 6.7 Hz, 1H), 2.04 (s, 1H), 1.65 – 1.44 (m, 3H), 1.39 (dt, J = 14.9, 7.4 Hz, 1H), 1.33 – 1.20 (m, 2H), 0.93 (t, J = 7.4 Hz, 1H), 0.88 (t, J = 6.8 Hz, 1H); 13C NMR (101 MHz, CDC13) δ 152.28 (s), 148.46 (s), 138.10 (s), 137.22 (s), 135.58 (s), 129.47 (s), 124.80 (s), 123.53 (s), 1 13.24 – 1 13.09 (m), 1 12.89 (d, J = 20.3 Hz), 64.40 (s), 48.60 (s), 31.91 (s), 30.67 (s), 29.05 (s), 22.72 (s), 19.15 (s), 14.15 (s); IR: 3193, 3087, 2967, 2848, 1738, 1609, 1493, 1267, 1242, 1 143, 933, 874, 763, 677, 646, 627, 606, 581 , 559, 474 cm“1; exact mass m/z calcd for C2iH16FN7, (M + H)+386.1451 , found 386.1529; MP = 144 °C.
Step 2: Isolation of the Crystalline Hydrate of N-((lS)-l-(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinvn-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine 4
To a 100 L reactor with its jacket set to 20 °C, 1.206 kg butyl acetate solvate of N-((l S)- l -(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine 3 was charged, followed by 6.8 L of acetone and 6.8 L of water. The resulting mixture was stirred at 90 rpm under nitrogen for 13 minutes to ensure complete dissolution of all solids. During these charges, the reactor contents increased in temperature that maximized at 26 °C. The solution was then transferred to another clean 100 L reactor through a 5 μιη filter, and stirred at 85 rpm under nitrogen. The solution was heated to 45 °C, and water (14.8 L) was added to reach a water content (by Karl Fischer, KF) of 75 wt%. The reactor solution was assayed by HPLC and shown to contain 42 mg/g N-((l S)- l -(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine. The solution was seeded with a slurry of 1 13 g of the crystalline hydrate of N-((l S)- l -(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine in 1 L water, and the seed slurry was rinsed into the reactor with an additional 1 L water. The reactor contents were cooled to 0 °C over 16 h and held at that temperature for 1 h. The supernatant was then assayed, and found to contain 7.6 mg/g of N-((l S)- l -(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine. Next, 10 L of water was added to the reactor over 38 min and aged for 1 h. The supernatant was assayed at 4.9 mg/g, and the solids were isolated by filtration. The solids were washed with an acetone/water solution (140 mL acetone in 2.7 L water), then 4 L water, and dried under nitrogen on the filter for 68 h. The crystalline hydrate of N-((l S)-l -(7-fluoro-2-(2-pyridinyl)-3-quinolinyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine was isolated as an off-

1 H-indazole-3-carboxamide compounds acting as glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK-33) inhibitors and to their use in the treatment of GSK-33-related disorders such as (i) insulin-resistance disorders; (ii) neurodegenerative diseases; (iii) mood disorders; (iv) schizophrenic disorders; (v) cancerous disorders; (vi) inflammation, (vii) substance abuse disorders; (viii) epilepsies; and (ix) neuropathic pain.
Protein kinases constitute a large family of structurally related enzymes, which transfer phosphate groups from high-energy donor molecules (such as adenosine triphosphate, ATP) to specific substrates, usually proteins. After phosphorylation, the substrate undergoes to a functional change, by which kinases can modulate various biological functions.
In general, protein kinases can be divided in several groups, according to the substrate that is phosphorylated. For example, serine/threonine kinase phosphorylates the hydroxyl group on the side chain of serine or threonine aminoacid.
Glycogen synthase kinases 3 (GSK-3) are constitutively active multifunctional enzymes, quite recently discovered, belonging to the serine/threonine kinases group.
Human GSK-3 are encoded by two different and independent genes, which leads to GSK-3a and GSK-33 proteins, with molecular weights of about 51 and 47 kDa, respectively. The two isoforms share nearly identical sequences in their kinase domains, while outside of the kinase domain, their sequences differ substantially (Benedetti et al., Neuroscience Letters, 2004, 368, 123-126). GSK-3a is a multifunctional protein serine kinase and GSK-33 is a serine-threonine kinase.
It has been found that GSK-33 is widely expressed in all tissues, with widespread expression in the adult brain, suggesting a fundamental role in neuronal signaling pathways (Grimes and Jope, Progress in Neurobiology, 2001, 65, 391-426). Interest in glycogen synthase kinases 3 arises from its role in various physiological pathways, such as, for example, metabolism, cell cycle, gene expression, embryonic development oncogenesis and neuroprotection (Geetha et al., British Journal Pharmacology, 2009, 156, 885-898).
GSK-33 was originally identified for its role in the regulation of glycogen synthase for the conversion of glucose to glycogen (Embi et al., Eur J Biochem, 1980, 107, 519-527). GSK-33 showed a high degree of specificity for glycogen synthase.
Type 2 diabetes was the first disease condition implicated with GSK- 3β, due to its negative regulation of several aspects of insulin signaling pathway. In this pathway 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK-1 ) activates PKB, which in turn inactivates GSK-33. This inactivation of GSK-33 leads to the dephosphorylation and activation of glycogen synthase, which helps glycogen synthesis (Cohen et al., FEBS Lett, 1997, 410, 3-10). Moreover, selective inhibitors of GSK-33 are expected to enhances insulin signaling in prediabetic insulin- resistant rat skeletal muscle, thus making GSK-33 an attractive target for the treatment of skeletal muscle insulin resistance in the pre-diabetic state (Dokken et al., Am J. Physiol. Endocrinol. Metab., 2005, 288, E1 188-E1 194).
GSK-33 was also found to be a potential drug target in others pathological conditions due to insulin-resistance disorders, such as syndrome X, obesity and polycystic ovary syndrome (Ring DB et al., Diabetes, 2003, 52: 588-595).
It has been found that GSK-33 is involved in the abnormal phosphorylation of pathological tau in Alzheimer’s disease (Hanger et al., Neurosci. Lett, 1992, 147, 58-62; Mazanetz and Fischer, Nat Rev Drug Discov., 2007, 6, 464-479; Hong and Lee, J. Biol. Chem., 1997, 272, 19547- 19553). Moreover, it was proved that early activation of GSK-33, induced by apolipoprotein ApoE4 and β-amyloid, could lead to apoptosis and tau hyperphosphorylation (Cedazo-Minguez et al., Journal of Neurochemistry, 2003, 87, 1 152- 1 164). Among other aspect of Alzheimer’s disease, it was also reported the relevance of activation of GSK-33 at molecular level (Hernandez and Avila, FEBS Letters, 2008, 582, 3848-3854).
Moreover, it was demonstrated that GSK-33 is involved in the genesis and maintenance of neurodegenerative changes associated with Parkinson’s disease (Duka T. et al., The FASEB Journal, 2009; 23, 2820- 2830).
Accordingly to these experimental observations, inhibitors of GSK-33 may find applications in the treatment of the neuropathological consequences and the cognitive and attention deficits associated with tauopathies; Alzheimer’s disease; Parkinson’s disease; Huntington’s disease (the involvement of GSK-33 in such deficits and diseases is disclosed in Meijer L. et al., TRENDS Pharm Sci, 2004; 25, 471 -480); dementia, such as, but not limited to, vascular dementia, post-traumatic dementia, dementia caused by meningitis and the like; acute stroke; traumatic injuries; cerebrovascular accidents; brain and spinal cord trauma; peripheral neuropathies; retinopathies and glaucoma (the involvement of GSK-33 in such conditions is disclosed in WO 2010/109005).
The treatment of spinal neurodegenerative disorders, like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, spinal muscular atrophy and neurodegeneration due to spinal cord injury has been also suggested in several studies related to GSK-33 inhibition, such as, for example in Caldero J. et al., “Lithium prevents excitotoxic cell death of motoneurons in organotypic slice cultures of spinal cord”, Neuroscience. 2010 Feb 17;165(4):1353-69, Leger B. et al., “Atrogin-1 , MuRF1 , and FoXO, as well as phosphorylated GSK-3beta and 4E-BP1 are reduced in skeletal muscle of chronic spinal cord-injured patients”, Muscle Nerve, 2009 Jul; 40(1 ):69-78, and Galimberti D. et al., “GSK33 genetic variability in patients with Multiple Sclerosis”, Neurosci Lett. 201 1 Jun 1 5;497(1 ):46- 8. Furthermore, GSK-33 has been linked to the mood disorders, such as bipolar disorders, depression, and schizophrenia.
Inhibition of GSK-33 may be an important therapeutic target of mood stabilizers, and regulation of GSK-33 may be involved in the therapeutic effects of other drugs used in psychiatry. Dysregulated GSK-33 in mood disorder, bipolar disorder, depression and schizophrenia could have multiple effects that could impair neural plasticity, such as modulation of neuronal architecture, neurogenesis, gene expression and the ability of neurons to respond to stressful, potentially lethal conditions (Jope and Ron, Curr. Drug Targets, 2006, 7, 1421- 1434).
The role of GSK-33 in mood disorder was highlighted by the study of lithium and valproate (Chen et al., J. Neurochem., 1999, 72, 1327- 1330; Klein and Melton, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 1996, 93, 8455-8459), both of which are GSK-33 inhibitors and are used to treat mood disorders. There are also existing reports from the genetic perspective supporting the role of GSK-33 in the disease physiology of bipolar disorder (Gould, Expert. Opin. Ther. Targets, 2006, 10, 377-392).
It was reported a decrease in AKT1 protein levels and its phosphorylation of GSK-33 at Serine-9 in the peripheral lymphocytes and brains of individuals with schizophrenia. Accordingly, this finding supports the proposal that alterations in AKT1 -GSK-33 signaling contribute to schizophrenia pathogenesis (Emamian et al., Nat Genet, 2004, 36, 131- 137).
Additionally, the role of GSK-33 in cancer is a well-accepted phenomenon.
The potential of small molecules that inhibit GSK-33 has been evidenced for some specific cancer treatments (Jia Luo, Cancer Letters, 2009, 273, 194-200). GSK-33 expression and activation are associated with prostate cancer progression (Rinnab et al., Neoplasia, 2008, 10, 624-633) and the inhibition of GSK3b was also proposed as specific target for pancreatic cancer (Garcea et al., Current Cancer Drug Targets, 2007, 7, 209-215) and ovarian cancer (Qi Cao et al., Cell Research, 2006, 16 671 -677). Acute inhibition of GSK-33 in colon-rectal cancer cells activates p53-dependent apoptosis and antagonizes tumor growth (Ghosh et al., Clin Cancer Res 2005, 1 1 , 4580-4588).
The identification of a functional role for GSK-33 in MLL-associated leukaemia suggests that GSK-33 inhibition may be a promising therapy that is selective for transformed cells that are dependent on HOX overexpression (Birch et al., Cancer Cell, 2010, 1 7, 529-531 ).
GSK-33 is involved in numerous inflammatory signalling pathways, for example, among others GSK-33 inhibition has been shown to induce secretion of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-1 0. According to this finding, GSK-33 inhibitors could be useful to regulate suppression of inflammation (G. Klamer et al., Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2010, 17(26), 2873-2281, Wang et al., Cytokine, 2010, 53, 130-140).
GSK-33 inhibition has been also shown to attenuate cocaine-induced behaviors in mice. The administration of cocaine in mice pretreated with a GSK-33 inhibitor demonstrated that pharmacological inhibition of GSK3 reduced both the acute behavioral responses to cocaine and the long- term neuroadaptations produced by repeated cocaine (Cocaine-induced hyperactivity and sensitization are dependent on GSK3, Miller JS et al. Neuropharmacology. 2009 Jun; 56(8):1 1 16-23, Epub 2009 Mar 27).
The role of GSK-33 in the development of several forms of epilepsies has been demonstrated in several studies, which suggest that inhibition of GSK-33 could be a pathway for the treatment of epilepsy (Novel glycogen synthase kinase 3 and ubiquitination pathways in progressive myoclonus epilepsy, Lohi H et al., Hum Mol Genet. 2005 Sep 15;14(18):2727-36 and Hyperphosphorylation and aggregation of Tau in laforin-deficient mice, an animal model for Lafora disease, Purl R et al., J Biol Chem. 2009 Aug 21 ;284(34) 22657-63). The relationship between GSK-33 inhibition and treatment of neuropathic pain has been demonstrated in Mazzardo-Martins L. et al., “Glycogen synthase kinase 3-specific inhibitor AR-A014418 decreases neuropathic pain in mice: evidence for the mechanisms of action”, Neuroscience. 2012 Dec 13;226, and Xiaoping Gu et al., “The Role of Akt/GSK33 Signaling Pathway in Neuropathic Pain in Mice”, Poster A525, Anesthesiology 2012 October 13-17, 2012 Washington.
A review on GSK-33, its function, its therapeutic potential and its possible inhibitors is given in “GSK-33: role in therapeutic landscape and development of modulators” (S. Phukan et al., British Journal of Pharmacology (2010), 160, 1- 19).
WO 2004/014864 discloses 1 H-indazole-3-carboxamide compounds as selective cyclin-dependant kinases (CDK) inhibitors. Such compounds are assumed to be useful in the treatment of cancer, through a mechanism mediated by CDK2, and neurodegenerative diseases, in particular Alzheimer’s disease, through a mechanism mediated by CDK5, and as anti-viral and anti-fungine, through a mechanism mediated by CDK7, CDK8 and CDK9.
Cyclin-dependant kinases (CDKs) are serine/threonine kinases, first discovered for their role in regulating the cell cycle. CDKs are also involved in regulating transcription, mRNA processing, and the differentiation of nerve cells. Such kinases activate only after their interaction and binding with regulatory subunits, namely cyclins.
Moreover, 1 H-indazole-3-carboxamide compounds were also described as analgesics in the treatment of chronic and neuropathic pain (see, for example, WO 2004/074275 and WO 2004/101 548) and as 5-HT4 receptor antagonists, useful in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders, central nervous system disorders and cardiovascular disorders (see, for example, WO 1994/101 74).

A mild and robust method for the large-scale palladium-catalysed cyanation of aryl bromides has been developed. The reaction is sensitive to cyanide poisoning of the catalyst, and it was found that the order of adding the reagents had a strong impact on the performance of the reaction. Addition of the cyanide source to a preheated mixture of the other reagents was critical for achieving a robust and scaleable process. This improved protocol allowed the reaction to be run to full conversion within 3 h at 50 °C on a 6.7 kg scale. Furthermore, it led to the identification of several new efficient catalysts for the reaction.

The suspension was heated to an inner temperature of 700C and a solution of citric acid (3.424 kg, 17.82 mol, 1.300 eq)) in water (103 L) was added keeping the inner temperature above 650C. The mixture was heated to reflux. After this the resulting solution was mixed with activated charcoal (0.412 kg) and reflux continued for 3.5 h after which the reaction mixture was clear filtered at 830C followed by cooling to room temperature over 20 h. After filtration the precipitate was washed twice with a cold mixture of ethanol/water (6.9 L/13.7 L).

LIK-066 is in phase II clinical studies at Novartis for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.
In June 2014, the EMA’s PDCO adopted a positive opinion on a pediatric investigation plan (PIP) for LIK-066 for type 2 diabetes
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by recurrent or persistent hyperglycemia (high blood glucose) and other signs, as distinct from a single disease or condition. Glucose level abnormalities can result in serious long-term complications, which include cardiovascular disease, chronic renal failure, retinal damage, nerve damage (of several kinds), microvascular damage and obesity.
Type 1 diabetes, also known as Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM), is characterized by loss of the insulin-producing β-cells of the islets of Langerhans of the pancreas leading to a deficiency of insulin. Type-2 diabetes previously known as adult- onset diabetes, maturity-onset diabetes, or Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM) – is due to a combination of increased hepatic glucose output, defective insulin secretion, and insulin resistance or reduced insulin sensitivity (defective responsiveness of tissues to insulin). Chronic hyperglycemia can also lead to onset or progression of glucose toxicity characterized by decrease in insulin secretion from β-cell, insulin sensitivity; as a result diabetes mellitus is self-exacerbated [Diabetes Care, 1990, 13, 610].
Chronic elevation of blood glucose level also leads to damage of blood vessels. In diabetes, the resultant problems are grouped under “microvascular disease” (due to damage of small blood vessels) and “macro vascular disease” (due to damage of the arteries). Examples of microvascular disease include diabetic retinopathy, neuropathy and nephropathy, while examples of macrovascular disease include coronary artery disease, stroke, peripheral vascular disease, and diabetic myonecrosis.
Diabetic retinopathy, characterized by the growth of weakened blood vessels in the retina as well as macular edema (swelling of the macula), can lead to severe vision loss or blindness. Retinal damage (from microangiopathy) makes it the most common cause of blindness among non-elderly adults in the US. Diabetic neuropathy is characterized by compromised nerve function in the lower extremities. When combined with damaged blood vessels, diabetic neuropathy can lead to diabetic foot. Other forms of diabetic neuropathy may present as mononeuritis or autonomic neuropathy. Diabetic nephropathy is characterized by damage to the kidney, which can lead to chronic renal failure, eventually requiring dialysis. Diabetes mellitus is the most common cause of l adult kidney failure worldwide. A high glycemic diet (i.e., a diet that consists of meals that give high postprandial blood sugar) is known to be one of the causative factors contributing to the development of obesity.
Type 2 diabetes is characterized by insulin resistance and/or inadequate insulin secretion in response to elevated glucose level. Therapies for type 2 diabetes are targeted towards increasing insulin sensitivity (such as TZDs), hepatic glucose utilization (such as biguanides), directly modifying insulin levels (such as insulin, insulin analogs, and insulin secretagogues), increasing increttn hormone action (such as exenatide and sitagliptin), or inhibiting glucose absorption from the diet (such as alpha glucosidase inhibitors) [Nature 2001 , 414, 821-827],
Glucose is unable to diffuse across the cell membrane and requires transport proteins. The transport of glucose into epithelial cells is mediated by a secondary active cotransport system, the sodium-D-glucose co-transporter (SGLT), driven by a sodium- gradient generated by the Na+/K+-ATPase. Glucose accumulated in the epithelial cell is further transported into the blood across the membrane by facilitated diffusion through GLUT transporters [Kidney International 2007, 72, S27-S35].
SGLT belongs to the sodium/glucose co-transporter family SLCA5. Two different SGLT isoforms, SGLT1 and SGLT2, have been identified to mediate renal tubular glucose reabsorption in humans [Curr. Opinon in Investigational Drugs (2007): 8(4), 285-292 and references cited herein]. Both of them are characterized by their different substrate affinity. Although both of them show 59% homology in their amino acid sequence, they are functionally different. SGLT1 transports glucose as well as galactose, and is expressed both in the kidney and in the intestine, while SGLT2 is found exclusively in the S1 and S2 segments of the renal proximal tubule.
As a consequence, glucose filtered in the glomerulus is reabsorbed into the renal proximal tubular epithelial cells by SGLT2, a low-affinity/high-capacity system, residing on the surface of epithelial cell lining in S1 and S2 tubular segments. Much smaller amounts of glucose are recovered by SGLT1 , as a high-affinity/low-capacity system, on the more distal segment of the proximal tubule. In healthy human, more than 99% of plasma glucose that is filtered in the kidney glomerulus is reabsorbed, resulting in less than 1 % of the total filtered glucose being excreted in urine. It is estimated that 90% of total renal glucose absorption is facilitated by SGLT2; remaining 10 % is likely mediated by SGLT1 [J. Parenter. Enteral Nutr. 2004, 28, 364-371].
SGLT2 was cloned as a candidate sodium glucose co-transporter, and its tissue distribution, substrate specificity, and affinities are reportedly very similar to those of the low-affinity sodium glucose co-transporter in the renal proximal tubule. A drug with a mode of action of SGLT2 inhibition will be a novel and complementary approach to existing classes of medication for diabetes and its associated diseases to meet the patient’s needs for both blood glucose control, while preserving insulin secretion. In addition, SGLT2 inhibitors which lead to loss of excess glucose (and thereby excess calories) may have additional potential for the treatment of obesity.
Indeed small molecule SGLT2 inhibitors have been discovered and the anti-diabetic therapeutic potential of such molecules has been reported in literature [T-1095 (Diabetes, 1999, 48, 1794-1800, Dapagliflozin (Diabetes, 2008, 57, 1723-1729)].

Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) have increased propensity to generate thromboxane A2 (TXA2) and other eicosanoids which can contribute to their heightened platelet reactivity. EV-077 is a potent thromboxane receptor antagonist and thromboxane synthase inhibitor and thus represents an attractive therapy in patients with DM. However, the effects of EV-077 on pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles in patients with DM and coronary artery disease (CAD) while on antiplatelet therapy is poorly explored and represented the aim of this in vitro pilot investigation. Patients with DM and stable CAD (n = 10) on low-dose aspirin (81 mg/day) were enrolled and then switched to clopidogrel (75 mg/day) monotherapy for 7-10 days. PD assessments were conducted while on aspirin and on clopidogrel using light transmittance aggregometry following stimuli with U-46619 [TXA2 stable analogue (7 μM)], arachidonic acid [AA (1 mM)], collagen (3 μg/mL) and adenosine diphosphate [ADP (5 μM and 20 μM)] with and without in vitro EV-077. EV-077 completely inhibited U-46619-stimulated platelet aggregation (p = 0.005 for both aspirin and clopidogrel) and also showed a significant reduction of collagen-induced aggregation (aspirin p = 0.008; clopidogrel p = 0.005). EV-077 significantly reduced AA-induced platelet aggregation in clopidogrel (p = 0.009), but not aspirin (p = 0.667) treated patients. Ultimately, EV-077 significantly reduced ADP-mediated platelet aggregation in both aspirin (ADP 5 μM p = 0.012; ADP 20 μM p = 0.032) and clopidogrel (ADP 5 μM p = 0.007; ADP 20 μM p = 0.008) treated patients. In conclusion, in DM patients with CAD on aspirin or clopidogrel monotherapy, in vitro EV-077 exerts potent platelet inhibitory effects on multiple platelet signaling pathways. These data support that EV-077 has only additive platelet inhibiting effects on top of standard antiplatelet therapies. These findings warrant further investigation in ex vivo settings.

Description
EV-077 is a small compound being developed for the treatment of complications of diabetes. In Phase 2. Outlicensed to Serodus in 2013.
Situation Overview
Diabetes and its complications are major global health care problems. Based on estimates by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), there were 366 million diabetics worldwide in 2011, a number which is expected to increase to 552 million by 2030. IDF estimates the number of deaths in 2011 at 4.6 million and total spending on diabetic health care at USD 465 billion.
EV-077 is an oral, small molecule compound, belonging to a new structural class. EV-077 is being developed for the reduction of vascular inflammation by inhibiting the activity of prostanoids and isoprostanes ��� in particular in diabetes. Towards the end of 2011, the Russian Patent Office granted patent protection for EV-077 in the treatment of complications of diabetes for a term extending to 2026. Additional patent applications are pending in all major territories. Evolva has outlicenced EV-077 to Serodus in 2013.
Mechanism of Action
Preclinical and early clinical studies indicate EV-077 has potential in reducing vascular inflammation by inhibiting the activity of prostanoids and isoprostanes in particular in diabetes. The mechanism of action of EV-077 means that it can potentially ameliorate or prevent a range of diabetic complications (including loss of kidney function, reduced peripheral blood flow and increased risk of thrombosis) that derive from the following chain of events:
- Diabetic patients have a reduced sensitivity to insulin which increases overall glucose levels in the body;
- This increase in glucose increases oxidative stress;
- The oxidative stress generates a high level of isoprostanes and prostanoids;
- The isoprostanes and prostanoids chronically activate thromboxane prostanoid receptors, that are located on the walls of blood vessels (endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells) and the surface of platelets;
- Activation of the thromboxane prostanoid receptors causes vascular inflammation and increased platelet reactivity;
- An increased number of vascular events and a progressive deterioration of circulatory and renal function.
Clinical Trials
In November 2011, Evolva received regulatory clearance to progress EV-077 into Phase IIa clinical studies for the treatment of complications of diabetes. It is a single-centre study, conducted in Germany. The study was a randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, and investigated the efficacy and safety of EV-077 in type 2 diabetics with a heightened risk of diabetic vascular complications. Measurements included blood flow and platelet reactivity, biomarkers for oxidative stress and vascular inflammation as well as markers of the function of organs that are often impaired in diabetes (e.g. kidney).
In May 2012, the study was terminated. Interim results for the first 32 patients enrolled in the Phase IIa study show promising efficacy data, indicating that 300mg EV-077 given orally twice daily to patients with type 2 diabetes provided anti-platelet activity, reduced exercise-induced proteinuria and increased forearm blood flow. This was achieved with only a slight increase in bleeding time. The analysis also indicated that EV-077 was generally well tolerated, with adverse events mostly limited to increases in liver enzymes, which were transient or resolved after discontinuation.
In parallel with the Phase IIa study, Evolva is conducting epidemiological studies to identify high risk diabetic patient subgroups that can potentially derive particular benefit from the administration of EV-077. Given success, this is expected to expedite both further clinical development (by reducing the size and duration of late stage clinical trials) and the eventual approval process.
Partners by Region
Evolva has outlicensed EV-077 to Serodus in 2013. Serodus aims to bring EV-077 further through clinical development and at a future time point decide whether Serodus or a partner will conduct the final clinical trials.

DC_AC50, selective way of blocking copper transport in cancer cells

Inhibition of human copper trafficking by a small molecule significantly attenuates cancer cell proliferation
- Nature Chemistry, (2015)
- doi:10.1038/nchem.2381
Jing Chen of Emory University School of Medicine, Hualiang Jiang of the Shanghai Institute of Materia Medica of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Chuan He of the University of Chicago, and coworkers have now developed a selective way of blocking copper transport in cancer cells (Nat. Chem. 2015, DOI: 10.1038/nchem.2381). By screening a database of 200,000 druglike small molecules, the researchers discovered a promising compound, DC_AC50, for cancer treatment. They zeroed in on the compound by testing how well database hits inhibited a protein-protein interaction leading to copper transport and reduced proliferation of cancer cells.
Scientists had already found a molecule, tetrathiomolybdate, that interferes with copper trafficking and have tested it in clinical trials against cancer. But tetrathiomolybdate is a copper chelator: It inhibits copper transport in cells by nonselectively sequestering copper ions. Sometimes, the chelator snags too much copper, inhibiting essential copper-based processes in normal cells and causing side effects.
In contrast, DC_AC50 works by inhibiting interactions between proteins in the copper-trafficking pathway: It prevents chaperone proteins, called Atox1 and CCS, from passing copper ions to enzymes that use them to run vital cellular processes. Cancer cells are heavy users of Atox1 and CCS, so DC_AC50 affects cancer cells selectively.
The team has licensed DC_AC50 to Suring Therapeutics, in Suzhou, China, for developing anticancer therapies. The group also plans to further tweak DC_AC50 to develop more-potent versions.
Thomas O’Halloran of Northwestern University, who has studied tetrathiomolybdate, comments that “the challenge in drug design is hitting one of these copper-dependent processes without messing with housekeeping functions that normal cells depend upon. DC_AC50 appears to block the function of copper metallochaperone proteins without interacting directly with their cargo, copper ions. As the first member of a new class of inhibitors, it provides a new way to interrogate the physiology of copper trafficking disorders and possibly intervene.”

ZYDPLA1 is an orally active, small molecule NCE, discovered and developed by the Zydus Research Centre, the NCE research wing of Zydus. ZYDPLA1 is a novel compound in the Gliptin class of antidiabetic agents. It works by blocking the enzyme Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 (DPP-4), which inactivates the Incretin hormone GLP-1.
By increasing the GLP-1 levels, ZYDPLA1 glucose-dependently increases insulin secretion and lowers glucagon secretion. This results in an overall improvement in the glucose homoeostasis, including reduction in HbA1c and blood sugar levels.
In October 2013, Zydus received IND approval from the US FDA to initiate a phase I trial in type II diabetes

By increasing the GLP- 1 levels, ZYDPLA1 glucose-dependently increases insulin secretion. This results in an overall improvement in the glucose homoeostasis, including reduction in HbA1c and blood sugar levels.
The Chairman & Managing Director of Zydus, Mr. Pankaj R. Patel said, “Currently, all available DPP-4 inhibitors are dosed once-daily. ZYDPLA1 with a once-a-week dosing regimen would provide diabetic patients with a more convenient treatment alternative. ZYDPLA1 will offer sustained action, which will result in an improved efficacy profile.”

The number of diabetics in the world is estimated to be over 360 million. In 2025 nearly half of the world’s diabetic population will be from India, China, Brazil, Russia and Turkey. The sales of the DPP IV inhibitors is expected to peak at almost $14 billion by 2022. Research in the field of anti-diabetic therapy seeks to address the problems of hypoglycemia, GI side effects, lactic acidosis, weight gain, CV risks, edema, potential immunogenicity etc., which pose a major challenge in the treatment of diabetes.
