5-HETEROARYL SUBSTITUTED INDAZOLES AS KINASE INHIBITORS

Technical Field
The present invention relates to 5-substituted indazole containing compounds,
methods of making the compounds, compositions containing the compounds which
are useful
for inhibiting kinases such as Glycogen Synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3), Rho kinase
(ROCK),
Janus Kinases (JAK), AKT, PAK4, PLK, CK2, KDR, MK2, JNKl, aurora, pim 1 and
nek 2.
Background of the Invention
Protein kinases are a class of enzymes that catalyze the transfer of a
phosphate group
from ATP to a tyrosine, serine, threonine, or histidine residue located on a
protein substrate.
Protein kinases clearly play a role in normal cell growth. Many of the growth
factor receptor
proteins have intracellular domains that function as protein kinases and it is
through this
function that they effect signaling. The interaction of growth factors with
their receptors is a
necessary event in the normal regulation of cell growth, and the
phosphorylation state of
substrate proteins often is related to the modulation of cell growth.
It is widely known that abnormal protein phosphorylation may be directly
linked to
certain disease states or may be a contributing factor in the onset of such
diseases. As a
result, protein kinases have become the targets of new pharmaceutical research
(Cohen, P.
Nature Reviews Drug Discovery, 1:309-315, 2002). Various protein kinase
inhibitors have
been used clinically in the treatment of a wide variety of diseases, such as
cancer, chronic
inflammatory diseases, diabetes and stroke.
The protein kinases are a large and diverse family of enzymes that catalyze
protein
phosphorylation and play a key role in cellular signaling. Protein kinases may
exert positive
or negative regulatory effects, depending upon their target protein. Protein
kinases are
involved in specific signaling pathways which regulate cell functions such as,
but not limited
to, metabolism, cell cycle progression, cell adhesion, vascular function,
apoptosis, and
angiogenesis. As a result, malfunctions of cellular signaling have been
associated with many
diseases, the most characterized of which include cancer and diabetes. The
regulation of
signal transduction by cytokines and the association of signal molecules with
proto-
oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes have been well documented. Similarly, the
connection between diabetes, viral infections and the conditions related
thereto has also been
associated with the regulation of protein kinases.
Because protein kinases regulate nearly every cellular process, including
metabolism,
1


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and cell survival, they are
attractive targets for
therapeutic intervention for various disease states. For example, cell-cycle
control and
angiogenesis, in which protein kinases play a pivotal role are cellular
processes associated
with numerous disease conditions such as, but not limited to, cancer,
inflammatory diseases,
abnormal angiogenesis and diseases related thereto, atherosclerosis, macular
degeneration,
diabetes, obesity, and pain.
The elucidation of the intricacy of protein kinase pathways and the complexity
of the
relationship and interaction among and between the various protein kinases and
kinase
pathways highlights the importance of developing pharmaceutical agents capable
of acting as
protein kinase modulators, regulators or inhibitors that have beneficial
activity on multiple
kinases or multiple kinase pathways.
It has therefore been suggested that due to the complexity of intracellular
signaling
cascades of protein kinase pathways, agents that affect multiple pathways
simultaneously
may be required for meaningful clinical activity. Although it has been
suggested that a single
agent that provides combinatorial effects is an attractive notion, there is a
need to identify and
use single agents that target the right combination of multiple pathways that
are clinically
effective in a particular disease setting.
Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is a serine/threonine kinase encoded by two
isoforms, GSK-3a and GSK-3(3 with molecular weights of 51 and 47 kDa,
respectively.

These share 97% sequence similarity in their kinase catalytic domains. The GSK-
3a isoform
has an extended glycine-rich N-terminal tail. A minor splice variant of GSK-3
(3 has been
identified (expressed at - 15% of total) with a 13 amino acid insert within
the kinase domain.
This variant had a reduced activity towards tau. GSK-3 is highly conserved
throughout
evolution, and found in all mammals thus far with high homology in the kinase
domain. Both
isoforms are ubiquitously expressed in mammalian tissues, including the brain.
Pharmacological GSK-3 inhibitors are not able to selectively inhibit one of
the isoforms.
GSK-3 (3 plays an important role in the control of metabolism, differentiation
and
survival. It was initially identified as an enzyme able to phosphorylate and
hence inhibit
glycogen synthase. Subsequently, it was recognized that GSK-3(3 was identical
to tau protein
kinase 1(TPKl), an enzyme that phosphorylates tau protein in epitopes that are
also found to
be hyperphosphorylated in Alzheimer's disease and in several taupathies.

Interestingly, protein kinase B (AKT) phosphorylation of GSK-3(3 results in a
loss of
kinase activity, and it has been proposed that this inhibition may mediate
some of the effects
2


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
of neurotrophic factors. Moreover, phosphorylation of (3-catenin (a protein
involved in cell
survival) by GSK-3(3, results in its degradation by an ubiquitinilation
dependent proteasome
pathway.

Therefore it appears that inhibition of GSK-3(3 activity may result in
neurotrophic
activity. There is evidence that lithium, an uncompetitive inhibitor of GSK-
3(3, enhances
neuritogenesis in some models and can also increase neuronal survival, through
the induction
of survival factors such as Bcl-2 and the inhibition of the expression of
proapoptotic factors
such as P53 and Bax.

Further studies have shown that (3-amyloid increases GSK-3 (3 activity and tau
protein
phosphorylation. Moreover, this hyperphosphorylation as well as the neurotoxic
effects of (3-
amyloid are blocked by lithium chloride and by a GSK-3(3 antisense mRNA. These

observations taken together suggest that GSK-3(3 may be the link between the
two major
pathological processes in Alzheimer's disease: abnormal APP (Amyloid Precursor
Protein)
processing and tau protein hyperphosphorylation.

These experimental observations indicate that GSK-3(3 may find application in
the
prevention and treatment of the neuropathological consequences and the
cognitive and
attention deficits associated with Alzheimer's disease, as well as other acute
and chronic
neurodegenerative diseases. These include, but are not limited to: Parkinson's
disease,
tauopathies (e.g. frontotemporoparietal dementia, corticobasal degeneration,
Pick's disease,
progressive supranuclear palsy) and other dementia including vascular
dementia; acute stroke
and other traumatic injuries; cerebrovascular accidents (e.g. age related
macular
degeneration); brain and spinal cord trauma; peripheral neuropathies;
retinopathies and
glaucoma.

GSK-3 (3 may also have utility in the treatment of other diseases such as: non-
insulin
dependent diabetes and obesity; manic depressive illness; schizophrenia;
alopecia;
inflammation; cancers such as breast cancer, non-small cell lung carcinoma,
thyroid cancer, T
or B-cell leukemia and several virus-induced tumors.
Rho kinases (ROCKs), the first Rho effectors to be described, are
serine/threonine
kinases that are important in fundamental processes of cell migration, cell
proliferation and
cell survival. Abnormal activation of the Rho/ROCK pathway has been observed
in various
disorders. Examples of disease states in which compounds of the present
invention have
potentially beneficial therapeutic effects due to their anti vasospasm
activity includes
cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, chronic and congestive heart
failure, cardiac

hypertrophy, restenosis, chronic renal failure, cerebral vasospasm after
subarachnoid
bleeding, pulmonary hypertension and atherosclerosis. The muscle relaxing
property is also
beneficial for treating asthma, male erectile dysfunctions, female sexual
dysfunction, and
over-active bladder syndrome. Injury to the adult vertebrate brain and spinal
cord activates
ROCKs, thereby inhibiting neurite growth and sprouting. Inhibition of ROCKs
results in
induction of new axonal growth, axonal rewiring across lesions within the CNS,
accelerated
regeneration and enhanced functional recovery after acute neuronal injury in
mammals
(spinal-cord injury, traumatic brain injury). Inhibition of the Rho/ROCK
pathway has also
proved to be efficacious in other animal models of neurodegeneration like
stroke,
inflammatory and demyelinating diseases, Alzheimer's disease as well as the
treatment of
pain. Rho/ROCK pathway inhibitors therefore have potential for preventing
neurodegeneration and stimulating neuroregeneration in various neurological
disorders,
including spinal-cord injury, Alzheimer's disease, stroke, multiple sclerosis,
amyotrophic
lateral sclerosis, as well as the treatment of pain. ROCK inhibitors have been
shown to
possess anti-inflammatory properties. Thus, compounds of the invention can be
used as
treatment for neuroinflammatory diseases such as stroke, multiple sclerosis,
Alzheimer's
disease, Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral
sclerosis, and
inflammatory pain, as well as other inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid
arthritis,
osteoarthritis, asthma, irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn's disease, psoriasis,
ulcerative colitis,
Lupus, and inflammatory bowel disease. Since ROCK inhibitors reduce cell
proliferation and
cell migration, they could be useful in treating cancer and tumor metastasis.
Further more,
there is evidence suggesting that ROCK inhibitors suppress cytoskeletal
rearrangement upon
virus invasion, thus they also have potential therapeutic value in anti-viral
and anti-bacterial
applications. ROCK inhibitors are also useful for the treatment of insulin
resistance and
diabetes. Further, ROCK inhibitors have been shown to ameliorate progression
of cystic
fibrosis (Abstract S02.3, 8th World Congress on Inflammation, Copenhagen,
Denmark, June
16-20, 2007).
In addition, Rho-associated coiled-coil forming protein kinases (ROCK)-1 and -
2,
have been shown to enhance myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation by
inhibiting MLC
phosphatase as well as phosphorylating MLC. This results in the regulation of
actin-myosin
contraction. Recent reports have demonstrated that inhibition of ROCK results
in disruption
of inflammatory cell chemotaxis as well as inhibition of smooth muscle
contraction in models
of pulmonary inflammation associated with asthma. Therefore, the inhibitors of
the
Rho/ROCK pathway should be useful for the treatment of asthma.

The Janus kinases (JAKs) are an important family of intracellular protein
tyrosine
kinases (PTKs), with 4 mammalian members, JAKl, JAK2, JAK3, and TYK2, as well
as
homologs in chicken, fish, and Drosophila. The JAKs play critical roles in
several important
intracellular signaling pathways, including the eponymous JAK/STAT pathway,
central to the
mediation of cytokine signaling. It is this pivotal role in cytokine signaling
that underpins
the notion that specific JAK inhibitors may be therapeutically deployed in
situations where
cytokine activity results in disease. Important examples of this include
autoimmune diseases
such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis, myeloproliferative syndromes such
as, leukemias,
lymphomas, and cardiovascular diseases.
JAK2, a member of the Janus kinase (JAK) family of protein tyrosine kinases
(PTKs),
is an important intracellular mediator of cytokine signaling. Mutations of the
JAK2 gene are
associated with hematologic cancers, and aberrant JAK activity is also
associated with a
number of immune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis.
Aurora kinases are a family of multigene mitotic serine-threonine kinases that
functions as a class of novel oncogenes. These kinases comprise aurora-A,
aurora-B, and
aurora-B members. These are hyperactivated and/or over-expressed in several
solid tumors
including but not limited to breast, ovary, prostate, pancreas, and colorectal
cancers. In
particular aurora-A is a centrosome kinase, and its localization depends on
the cell cycle and
plays an important role cell cycle progression and cell proliferation. Aurora-
A is located in
the 20q13 chromosome region that is frequently amplified in several different
types of
malignant tumors such as colorectal, breast and bladder cancers. Inhibition of
aurora kinase
activity could help to reduce cell proliferation, tumor growth and potentially
tumorigenesis.
Accordingly, there remains a need for the development of methods comprising
the use
of a single agent drug capable of targeting specific sets of kinases or kinase
pathways. In
particular such methods affect the right combination of multiple targets
thereby achieving
clinical efficacy.

concentration) in reaction buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 2 mM
MnC12,
0.1% BSA and 1 mM DTT, 40 L final volume). The reaction was initiated by
addition of
10 ul of Bio-PDK peptide
(Biotin-Ahx-KTFCGTPEYLAPEVRREPRILSEEEQEMFRDFDYIADWC (SEQ ID NO: 4),
0.5 M final concentration) in a black 384-well plate (Packard). After 60
minutes incubation
at room temperature, the reaction was quenched by addition 60 L
stop/revelation buffer to

phosphotyrosine
mAb PT66-K Europium Cryptate, 30 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 120 mM KF, 0.005% Tween-20,
0.05% BSA). The quenched reaction was allowed to stand at room temperature for
1 hour
and then read in a time-resolved fluorescence detector (Envision, Perkin
Elmer) at 615 nm
and 665 nm simultaneously. The ratio between the signal of 615 nm and 665 nm
was used in
the calculation of the IC50=

Methods - 0-catenin reporter-gene assay

Compounds were tested for their ability to modulate 0-catenin-modulated gene
transcription in a LEF/TCF(T-cell factor) reporter gene assay. SY-SY5Y human
neuroblastoma cells were transiently transfected with 80 ng/well TOPFLASH
plasmid
(Upstate cell signaling solutions) containing two sets of three copies of the
TCF binding site
upstream of the Thymidine kinase minimal promoter and firefly Luciferase open
reading
frame or with 80 ng/well FOPFLASH plasmid (Upstate cell signaling solutions)
containing
three copies of a mutated TCF binding site upstream of the Thymidine kinase
minimal
promoter and firefly Luciferase open reading frame. In addition, all cells
were transiently
transfected with the 20 ng/well pRL-TK plasmid (Promega) containing the herpes
simplex
virus thymidine kinase promoter to provide low to moderate levels of Renilla
Luciferase
expression. Transfection medium was exchanged for serum-free medium containing
the test
substance and incubated for 24 hours at 37 C. The incubation was stopped and
quantified
using the Dual Glo Luciferase Assay (Promega) as indicated and quantified on a
Pherastar
reader (BMG).
Firefly Luciferase activity was normalized for Renilla Luciferase activity per
well.
Subsequently, the normalised TOPFLASH response was compared to the normalised
FOPFLASH response, thus giving the LEF/TCF specific signal. The maximal
response is the
maximal ratio between the normalised TOPFLASH and FOPFLASH signals. Sigmoidal
dose-response curves were fitted using Graphpad Prism.

Murine Asthma Model of acute asthma
Female Balb/c mice were purchased from Taconic and housed at Abbott
Bioresearch
Center. Animals were utilized at 8-12 weeks of age. All protocols were
approved by the
Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC). Dexamethasone (Dex), and
ovalbumin (OVA) were purchased from Sigma. Endotoxin was removed from
ovalbumin

using DetoxiGel (Pierce) according to manufacturer's protocol and the final
material
contained less than 0.1 EU/mg protein. Alum Imject was purchased from Pierce.
Animals were sensitized to OVA on day 0 and 7 with an i.p. injection of 8 ug
OVA in
2 mg alum. On days 14 and 16, animals received intra-nasal challenge of 0.3 g
OVA in 50
1 sterile PBS. Animals were dosed i.p. with a representative compound of
formula (I)
(dissolved with 0.5% HMPC, 0.02% Tween 80 in water) twice per day at doses of
3, 10, and
30 mg/kg/dose beginning the afternoon of day 13. The final dose of compound
was
administered 30 minutes prior to measurement of airway hyperresponsiveness
(AHR).
Dexamethasone was administered orally once a day on days 13-17 at a dose of 3
mg/kg. All
endpoints were analyzed on day 17, 24 hours after the second OVA challenge.
AHR was
assessed using unconscious restrained whole body plethysmography. Briefly, a
surgical
plane of anesthesia was induced with an i.p. injection of ketamine and
xylazine. A tracheal
canula was surgically inserted between the third and fourth tracheal rings.
Spontaneous
breathing was prevented by an intravenous (i.v.) jugular vein injection of
pancuronium
bromide. Animals were placed in a whole body plethysmograph (Buxco) and
mechanically
ventilated with 0.2 ml room air at 150 breaths per minute with a volume-
controlled ventilator
(Harvard Apparatus). Pressure in the lung and flow within the plethysmograph
were
measured using transducers, and lung resistance was calculated as
pressure/flow using
Biosystem Xa software. Baseline resistance as well as resistance following
challenge with
methacholine (3, 10 or 30 mg/ml) that was delivered with an inline ultrasonic-
nebulizer were
measured. Upon completion of pulmonary function testing, the lungs were
lavaged 4 times
with 0.5 ml sterile PBS. Lavage fluid was analyzed for IL-13, AMCase, Muc5ac
and cellular
infiltrates. The efficacy of the test compound was tested at doses of 3, 10
and 30 mg/kg b.i.d
(6, 20, 60 mg/kg/day). Challenge with OVA caused an increase in lung
resistance to 6.90 cm
HzO/ml/sec vs. 4.65 em HzO/ml/sec in animals challenged with PBS. Treatment of
mice
with the test compound significantly inhibited (p<0.001) methacholine-induced
airways
resistance down to 4.55 cm Hz0/mUsec and 4.77 cm H20/ml/sec at doses ranging
between 1
and 100 mg/kg. The preferred compounds require a dose of less than 50 mg/kg to
exhibit
said response. The most preferred compounds require a dose of less than 30
mg/kg to exhibit
said response. This inhibition was equivalent to measurements taken in the PBS
challenged
group (4.65 cm H20/ml/sec) and to treatment of 3 mg/kg dexamethasone (4.76 cm
HzO/mUsec).
IL- 13 measurement: IL- 13 concentrations in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid
(BAL)
206


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
were measured by ELISA (R & D Systems) according to manufacturer's
instructions. IL-13
concentrations in the BAL fluid were significantly induced to 102.5 pg/ml in
OVA
challenged mice as compared to levels below detection in the PBS challenged
group. This
induction was significantly inhibited (p<0.05) by 60% after administration of
the test
compounds administration at the 30 mg/kg dose. There was no significant
inhibition at the 3
mg/kg or 10 mg/kg dose groups.
AMCase measurement: Acidic mammalian chitinase (AMCase) activity was
determined in a 1:10 dilution of BAL fluid with 0.01% BSA, 30 mM sodium
citrate, 60 mM
sodium phosphate, pH 5.2 in the presence of 80 uM 4-methylumbelliferyl (3-D-
N,N'-
diacetylchitobioside. Reactions were incubated for 15 minutes at room
temperature and
quenched by addition of 100 uL of 1 M glycine/NaOH pH 10.6. Product formation
was
determined by fluorescence emission at 460 nm using excitation at 385 nm on a
Fluoroskan
Ascent fluorometer. AMCase activity was induced to 28.5U in OVA challenged
animals
compared to 2.17U in the PBS challenged animals. This induction was
significantly inhibited
(p<0.01) in the 30 mg/kg group by 35% after test compounds were administered.
MUC5AC measurement: Concentrations of the mucin gene MUC5AC were
quantitated by ELISA format. Briefly, BAL samples are diluted 1:2 in buffer
(2% BSA in
PBS) and plated onto high protein binding 96-well plates (Costar) and dried.
After a series of
washes, a 1:100 dilution of biotinylated MUC5AC antibody (Clone 45M,
LabVision) was
added for 1 hour. Plates are washed and a 1:3000 dilution of streptavidin-HRP
(Southern
Biotech) was added to the plate for 15 minutes. Plates were then developed
using a TMB
substrate (Sigma) for 30 minutes. The reaction was stopped using 1M H2SO4 and
then read
in a spectrophotometer at OD 450nm. Levels of MUC5AC were reduced by greater
than
50% after administration of test compounds.
Determination of Antinociceptive Effect: Models for Neuropathic Pain
Spinal Nerve (L5/L6) Ligation Model of Neuropathic Pain. As previously
described
in detail by Kim and Chung (Kim S. H.; Chung J.M. An experimental model for
peripheral
neuropathy produced by segmental spinal nerve ligation in the rat. Pain 1992,
50, 355-363),
a 1.5 cm incision was made dorsal to the lumbosacral plexus. In anesthetized
rats, the
paraspinal muscles (left side) were separated from the spinous processes, the
L5 and L6
spinal nerves isolated, and tightly ligated with 3-0 silk threads. Following
hemostasis, the
wound was sutured and coated with antibiotic ointment. The rats were allowed
to recover
and then placed in a cage with soft bedding for 14 days before behavioral
testing for

207

mechanical allodynia.
Sciatic Nerve Ligation Model of Neuropathic Pain. As previously described in
detail
by Bennett and Xie (Bennett G. J.; Xie Y-K. A peripheral mononeuropathy in rat
that
produces disorders of pain sensation like those seen in man. Pain 1988, 33, 87-
107), in
anesthetized rats, a 1.5 cm incision was made 0.5cm below the pelvis and the
biceps femoris
and the gluteous superficialis (right side) were separated. The sciatic nerve
was exposed,
isolated, and four loose ligatures (5-0 chromic catgut) with 1 mm spacing were
placed around
it. The rats were allowed to recover and then placed in a cage with soft
bedding for 14 days
before behavioral testing for mechanical allodynia as described above. In
addition, animals
were also tested for cold allodynia by dipping their hind paw in a cold-water
bath (4.5 C) and
determining the paw withdrawal latency.
Selected analogs of compounds of formula (I), dosed either i.p. or p.o.
demonstrated
greater than 30% inhibition of tactile allodynia in the Chung and Bennett
models of
neuropathic pain described herein at doses ranging from 1-150 mg/kg.
In summary, a representative compound of formula (I) in a mouse model of acute
asthma was effective in inhibiting airway resistance in a dose range between 1
and 100
mg/kg. High dose (30 mg/kg) treatment also inhibited IL-13 induction as well
as AMCase
activity and MUC5AC levels in the BAL fluid.
Representative compounds of formula (I) in rat models of neuopathic pain were
effective as demonstrated by a greater than 30% inhibition of tactile
allodynia at doses
ranging from 1-150 mg/kg.
The compounds of formula (I) were found to inhibit human ROCK-2, N-terminal
His-
tagged GSK-3(3, human GSK-3(3, His6-tagged, recombinant, human JAK2 and
Firefly

Luciferase exhibiting an IC50 of about 1.0 gM to about 10 M, preferably about
100 nM to
about 1.0 M. More preferably, compounds of formula (I) were found to inhibit
human
ROCK-2, N-terminal His-tagged GSK-30, human GSK-3(3, His6-tagged, recombinant,
human JAK2 and Firefly Luciferase exhibiting an IC50 of about 10 nM to about
100 nM, and
most preferably less than 10 nM.
In addition, certain compounds of formula (I) exhibited inhibition of human
ROCK-2
with a selectivity of greater than 10 fold against a panel of 50 kinase
targets. Certain
compounds of formula (I) exhibited inhibition of human GSK-30 with a
selectivity of greater
than 10 fold against a panel of 50 kinase targets. Certain compounds of
formula (I) exhibited

inhibition of His6-tagged, recombinant, human JAK2 with a selectivity of
greater than 10
fold against a panel of 50 kinase targets.

Methods of Administration
The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions that comprise
compounds of the present invention. The pharmaceutical compositions comprise
compounds
of the present invention formulated together with one or more non-toxic
pharmaceutically
acceptable carriers.
The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention can be administered to
humans
and other mammals orally, rectally, parenterally, intracisternally,
intravaginally, topically (as
by powders, ointments or drops), bucally or as an oral or nasal spray. The
term
"parenterally," as used herein, refers to modes of administration that include
intravenous,
intramuscular, intraperitoneal, intrastemal, subcutaneous and intraarticular
injection and
infusion.
The term "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier," as used herein, means a non-
toxic,
inert solid, semi-solid or liquid filler, diluent, encapsulating material or
formulation auxiliary
of any type. Some examples of materials which can serve as pharmaceutically
acceptable
carriers are sugars such as, but not limited to, lactose, glucose and sucrose;
starches such as,
but not limited to, corn starch and potato starch; cellulose and its
derivatives such as, but not
limited to, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose and cellulose
acetate; powdered
tragacanth; malt; gelatin; talc; excipients such as, but not limited to, cocoa
butter and
suppository waxes; oils such as, but not limited to, peanut oil, cottonseed
oil, safflower oil,
sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil and soybean oil; glycols; such as propylene
glycol; esters such
as, but not limited to, ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; agar; buffering agents
such as, but not
limited to, magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; alginic acid; pyrogen-
free water;
isotonic saline; Ringer's solution; ethyl alcohol, and phosphate buffer
solutions, as well as
other non-toxic compatible lubricants such as, but not limited to, sodium
lauryl sulfate and
magnesium stearate, as well as coloring agents, releasing agents, coating
agents, sweetening,
flavoring and perfuming agents, preservatives and antioxidants can also be
present in the
composition, according to the judgment of the formulator.
Pharmaceutical compositions of this invention for parenteral injection
comprise
pharmaceutically acceptable sterile aqueous or nonaqueous solutions,
dispersions,
suspensions or emulsions as well as sterile powders for reconstitution into
sterile injectable
solutions or dispersions just prior to use. Examples of suitable aqueous and
nonaqueous

209


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
carriers, diluents, solvents or vehicles include water, ethanol, polyols (such
as glycerol,
propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol and the like), vegetable oils (such as
olive oil),
injectable organic esters (such as ethyl oleate) and suitable mixtures
thereof. Proper fluidity
can be maintained, for example, by the use of coating materials such as
lecithin, by the
maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions and by
the use of
surfactants.
These compositions may also contain adjuvants such as preservatives, wetting
agents,
emulsifying agents and dispersing agents. Prevention of the action of
microorganisms can be
ensured by the inclusion of various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for
example, paraben,
chlorobutanol, phenol sorbic acid and the like. It may also be desirable to
include isotonic
agents such as sugars, sodium chloride and the like. Prolonged absorption of
the injectable
pharmaceutical form can be brought about by the inclusion of agents, which
delay absorption
such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin.
In some cases, in order to prolong the effect of the drug, it is desirable to
slow the
absorption of the drug from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This can
be
accomplished by the use of a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous
material with
poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the drug then depends upon
its rate of
dissolution that, in turn, may depend upon crystal size and crystalline form.
Alternatively,
delayed absorption of a parenterally administered drug form is accomplished by
dissolving or
suspending the drug in an oil vehicle.
Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of the drug
in
biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. Depending upon the
ratio of drug
to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer employed, the rate of drug
release can be
controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters)
and
poly(anhydrides). Depot injectable formulations are also prepared by
entrapping the drug in
liposomes or microemulsions, which are compatible with body tissues.
The injectable formulations can be sterilized, for example, by filtration
through a
bacterial-retaining filter or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form
of sterile solid
compositions which can be dissolved or dispersed in sterile water or other
sterile injectable
medium just prior to use.
Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, pills,
powders
and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound may be mixed
with at least
one inert, pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient, such as sodium
citrate or
dicalcium phosphate and/or a) fillers or extenders such as starches, lactose,
sucrose, glucose,
210


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
mannitol and silicic acid; b) binders such as carboxymethylcellulose,
alginates, gelatin,
polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose and acacia; c) humectants such as glycerol; d)
disintegrating
agents such as agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic
acid, certain
silicates and sodium carbonate; e) solution retarding agents such as paraffin;
f) absorption
accelerators such as qu.a.ternary ammonium compounds; g) wetting agents such
as cetyl
alcohol and glycerol monostearate; h) absorbents such as kaolin and bentonite
clay and i)
lubricants such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid
polyethylene glycols,
sodium lauryl sulfate and mixtures thereo In the case of capsules, tablets
and pills, the
dosage form may also comprise buffering agents.
Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft
and hard-
filled gelatin capsules using such carriers as lactose or milk sugar as well
as high molecular
weight polyethylene glycols and the like.
The solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills and granules can
be
prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings and other coatings
well-known in
the pharmaceutical formulating art. They may optionally contain opacifying
agents and may
also be of a composition such that they release the active ingredient(s) only,
or preferentially,
in a certain part of the intestinal tract, optionally, in a delayed manner.
Examples of
embedding compositions that can be used include polymeric substances and
waxes.
The active compounds can also be in micro-encapsulated form, if appropriate,
with
one or more of the above-mentioned carriers.
Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceutically
acceptable
emulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs. In addition to the
active compounds,
the liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art
such as, for
example, water or other solvents, solubilizing agents and emulsifiers such as
ethyl alcohol,
isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl
benzoate, propylene
glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, dimethyl formamide, oils (in particular,
cottonseed, groundnut,
corn, germ, olive, castor and sesame oils), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl
alcohol, polyethylene
glycols and fatty acid esters of sorbitan and mixtures thereof.
Besides inert diluents, the oral compositions may also include adjuvants such
as
wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweetening, flavoring and
perfuming
agents.
Suspensions, in addition to the active compounds, may contain suspending
agents as,
for example, ethoxylated isostearyl alcohols, polyoxyethylene sorbitol and
sorbitan esters,
microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum metahydroxide, bentonite, agar-agar,
tragacanth and

211


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
mixtures thereof.
Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are preferably suppositories
which
can be prepared by mixing the compounds of this invention with suitable non-
irritating
carriers or carriers such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol or a
suppository wax which are
solid at room temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore melt in
the rectum or
vaginal cavity and release the active compound.
Compounds of the present invention can also be administered in the form of
liposomes. As is known in the art, liposomes are generally derived from
phospholipids or
other lipid substances. Liposomes are formed by mono- or multi-lamellar
hydrated liquid
crystals that are dispersed in an aqueous medium. Any non-toxic,
physiologically acceptable
and metabolizable lipid capable of forming liposomes can be used. The present
compositions
in liposome form can contain, in addition to a compound of the present
invention, stabilizers,
preservatives, excipients and the like. The preferred lipids are natural and
synthetic
phospholipids and phosphatidyl cholines (lecithins) used separately or
together.
Methods to form liposomes are known in the art. See, for example, Prescott,
Ed.,
Methods in Cell Biology, Volume XIV, Academic Press, New York, N.Y. (1976), p.
33 et
seq.
Dosage forms for topical administration of a compound of this invention
include
powders, sprays, ointments and inhalants. The active compound may be mixed
under sterile
conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and any needed
preservatives, buffers
or propellants, which may be required. Ophthalmic formulations, eye ointments,
powders
and solutions are also contemplated as being within the scope of this
invention.
Actual dosage levels of active ingredients in the pharmaceutical compositions
of this
invention can be varied so as to obtain an amount of the active compound(s)
that is effective
to achieve the desired therapeutic response for a particular patient,
compositions and mode of
administration. The selected dosage level will depend upon the activity of the
particular
compound, the route of administration, the severity of the condition being
treated and the
condition and prior medical history of the patient being treated.
When used in the above or other treatments, a therapeutically effective amount
of one
of the compounds of the present invention can be employed in pure form or,
where such
forms exist, in pharmaceutically acceptable salt, ester or prodrug form. The
phrase
"therapeutically effective amount" of the compound of the invention means a
sufficient
amount of the compound to treat disorders, at a reasonable benefit/risk ratio
applicable to any
medical treatment. It will be understood, however, that the total daily usage
of the

212


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
compounds and compositions of the present invention will be decided by the
attending
physician within the scope of sound medical judgment. The specific
therapeutically effective
dose level for any particular patient will depend upon a variety of factors
including the
disorder being treated and the severity of the disorder; activity of the
specific compound
employed; the specific composition employed; the age, body weight, general
health, sex and
diet of the patient; the time of administration, route of administration, and
rate of excretion of
the specific compound employed; the duration of the treatment; drugs used in
combination or
coincidental with the specific compound employed; and like factors well known
in the
medical arts.
The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt," as used herein, means salts
derived from
inorganic or organic acids. The salts can be prepared in situ during the final
isolation and
purification of compounds of Formula (I) or separately by reacting the free
base of a
compound of Formula (I) with an inorganic or organic acid. Representative acid
addition
salts include, but are not limited to, acetate, adipate, alginate, citrate,
aspartate, benzoate,
benzenesulfonate, bisulfate, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate,
digluconate,
glycerophosphate, hemisulfate, heptanoate, hexanoate, fumarate, hydrochloride,
hydrobromide, hydroiodide, 2-hydroxyethansulfonate (isethionate), lactate,
maleate,
fumarate, methanesulfonate, nicotinate, 2-naphthalenesulfonate, oxalate,
pamoate, pectinate,
persulfate, 3-phenylpropionate, picrate, pivalate, propionate, succinate,
sulfate, (L) tartrate,
(D) tartrate, (DL) tartrate, thiocyanate, phosphate, glutamate, bicarbonate, p-
toluenesulfonate,
and undecanoate.
The term "pharmaceutically acceptable prodrug" or "prodrug,"as used herein,
represents those prodrugs of the compounds of the present invention which are,
within the
scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues
of humans and
lower animals without undue toxicity, irritation, allergic response, and the
like. Prodrugs of
the present invention may be rapidly transformed in vivo to compounds of
Formula (I), for
example, by hydrolysis in blood.
The present invention contemplates compounds of Formula (I) formed by
synthetic
means or formed by in vivo biotransformation.
The compounds of the invention can exist in unsolvated as well as solvated
forms,
including hydrated forms, such as hemi-hydrates. In general, the solvated
forms, with
pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water and ethanol among others,
are equivalent
to the unsolvated forms for the purposes of the invention.
The total daily dose of the compounds of this invention administered to a
human or
213


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
lower animal may range from about 0.003 to about 30 mg/kg/day. For purposes of
oral
administration, more preferable doses can be in the range of from about 0.01
to about 10
mg/kg/day. If desired, the effective daily dose can be divided into multiple
doses for
purposes of administration; consequently, single dose compositions may contain
such
amounts or submultiples thereof to make up the daily dose.
Protein kinases can be classified into broad groups based upon the identity of
the
amino acid(s) that they target (serine/threonine, tyrosine, lysine, and
histidine). For example,
tyrosine kinases include receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), such as growth
factors and non-
receptor tyrosine kinases, such as the src kinase family. There are also dual-
specific protein
kinases that target both tyrosine and serine/threonine, such as cyclin
dependent kinases
(CDKs) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs).
The protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) compose a large family of kinases that
regulate
cell to cell signals involved in growth, differentiation, adhesion, motility,
and death (Pearson,
M. et al., In Protein Tyrosine Kinases; Fabbro, D., McCormick, F., Eds.;
Humana Press Inc.,
2006; pp 1-29.). Members of the tyrosine kinase include, but are not limited
to, Yes, BMX,
Syk, EphAl, FGFR3, RYK, MUSK, JAKl and EGFR. Tyrosine kinases are
distinguished
into two classes, i.e., the receptor type and non-receptor type tyrosine
kinases. Interestingly,
the entire family of tyrosine kinases consists of at least 90 characterized
kinases with at least
58 receptor type and at least 32 nonreceptor type kinases comprising at least
30 total
subfamilies. Tyrosine kinases have been implicated in a number of diseases in
humans,
including diabetes and cancer (Pearson, M. et al., In Protein Tyrosine
Kinases; Fabbro, D.,
McCormick, F., Eds.; Humana Press Inc., 2006; pp 1-29.). Tyrosine kinases are
often
involved in most forms of human malignancies and have been linked to a wide
variety of
congenital syndromes (Robertson et al., Trends Genet. 16:265-271, 2000).
The non-receptor tyrosine kinases represent a group of intracellular enzymes
that lack
extracellular and transmembrane sequences. Currently, over 32 families of non-
receptor
tyrosine kinases have been identified (Robinson et al., Oncogene 19, 5548-
5557, 2000).
Representative examples include Src, Btk, Csk, ZAP70 and Kak families. In
particular, the
Src family of non-receptor tyrosine kinase family is the largest, consisting
of Src, Yes, Fyn,
Lyn, Lck, Blk, Hck, Fgr and Yrk protein tyrosine kinases. The Src family of
kinases have
been linked to oncogenesis, cell proliferation and tumor progression. Many of
the protein
tyrosine kinases have been found to be involved in cellular signaling pathways
involved in
various pathological conditions including but not limited to cancer and
hyperproliferative
disorders and immune disorders.

The cyclin dependent kinases CDKs represent a group of intracellular enzymes
that
control progression through the cell cycle and have essential roles in cell
proliferation
(Cohen, P. Nature Reviews Drug Discovery 1, 309-315, 2002). Representative
examples of
CDKs include, but are not limited to, cyclin dependent kinase 2 (CDK2), cyclin
dependent
kinase 7 (CDK7), cyclin dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) and cell division control 2
protein
(CDC2). CDKs have been implicated in the regulation of transitions between
different
phases of the cell cycle, such as the progression from a quiescent stage in Gl
(the gap
between mitosis and the onset of DNA replication for a new round of cell
division) to S (the
period of active DNA synthesis), or the progression from G2 to M phase, in
which active
mitosis and cell division occur (Rowell et al. Critical Reviews in Immunology
26(3), 189-
212, 2006). CDK complexes are formed through association of a regulatory
cyclin subunit
(e.g., cyclin A, B1,B2, Dl, D2, D3, and E) and a catalytic kinase subunit
(e.g., cdc2 (CDKl),
CDK2, CDK4, CDK5, and CDK6). CDKs display an absolute dependence on the cyclin
subunit in order to phosphorylate their target substrates, and different
kinase/cyclin pairs
function to regulate progression through specific portions of the cell cycle.
Furthermore,
CDKs have been implicated in various disease states, including but not limited
to, those
displaying the cancer phenotype, various neoplastic disorders and in
neurological disorders
(Pallas et al. CuYYentMedicinal Chemistry: Central Nervous System Agents 5(2),
101-109,
2005).
The mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinases participate in the transduction of
signals
to the nucleus of the cell in response to extracellular stimuli.
Representative examples of
MAP kinases include, but are not limited to, mitogen activated protein kinase
3 (MAPK3),
mitogen-activated protein kinase 1(ERK2), mitogen-activated protein kinase 7
(MAPK7),
mitogen-activated protein kinase 8(JNKl), mitogen-activated protein kinase 14
(p38 alpha),
mitogen-activated protein kinase 10 (MAPK 10), JNK3 alpha protein kinase,
stress-activated
protein kinase JNK2 and mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 (MAPK14). MAP
kinases are a
family of proline-directed serine/threonine kinases that mediate signal
transduction from
extracellular receptors or heath shock, or UV radiation (Barr et al., Trends
in
Pharmacological Sciences 27(10), 525-530, 2006). MAP kinases activate through
the
phosphorylation of threonine and tyrosine by dual-specificity protein kinases,
including
tyrosine kinases such as growth factors. Cell proliferation and
differentiation have been
shown to be under the regulatory control of multiple MAP kinase cascades
(Sridhar et al.,
Pharmaceutical Research, 17:11 1345-1353, 2000). As such, the MAP kinase
pathway plays
critical roles in a number of disease states, for example, defects in
activities of MAP kinases

215


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
have been shown to lead to aberrant cell proliferation and carcinogenesis (Qi
et al., Journal of
Cell Science 118(16), 3569-3572, 2005). Moreover, MAP kinase activity has also
been
implicated in insulin resistance associated with type-2 diabetes (Fujishiro et
al. Recent
Research Developments in Physiology 1(Pt. 2), 801-812, 2003).
The p90 ribosomal S6 kinases (Rsk) are serine/threonine kinases which function
in
mitogen-activated cell growth and proliferation, differentiation, and cell
survival. Examples
of members of the Rsk family of kinases include, but are not limited to,
ribosomal protein S6
kinase, 90 kDa, polypeptide 2 (Rsk3), ribosomal protein S6 kinase, 90 kDa,
polypeptide 6
(Rsk4), ribosomal protein S6 kinase, 90 kDa, polypeptide 3 (Rsk2) and
ribosomal protein S6
kinase, 90 kDa, polypeptide 1(Rskl/p90Rsk). The Rsk family members are
activated by
extracellular signal-related kinases and phosphoinositide-dependent protein
kinase 1(Frodin
and Gammeltoft, Mol. Cell. Endocrinol. 151, 65-77, 1999). Under basal
conditions, RSK
kinases are localized in the cytoplasm of cells and upon stimulation by
mitogens, the
activated (phosphorylated by extracellular-related kinase) RSK transiently
translocates to the
plasma membrane where they become fully activated. The fully activated RSK
phosphorylates substrates that are involved in cell growth, proliferation,
differentiation, and
cell survival (Clark et al. Cancer Research 65, 3108-3116, 2005). RSK
signaling pathways
have also been associated with the modulation of the cell cycle (Gross et al.,
J. Biol. Chem.
276, 46099-46103, 2001). Current data suggests that small molecules that
inhibit Rsk may be
useful therapeutic agents for the prevention and treatment of cancer and
inflammatory
diseases.
Members of the checkpoint protein kinase family (CHK) are serine/threonine
kinases
that play an important role in cell cycle progression. Examples of members of
the checkpoint
family include, but are not limited to, CHKI and CHK2. Checkpoints kinases are
control
systems that coordinate cell cycle progression by influencing the formation,
activation and
subsequent inactivation of the cyclin-dependent kinases. Checkpoints kinases
prevent cell
cycle progression at inappropriate times, maintain the metabolic balance of
cells while the
cell is arrested, and in some instances can induce apoptosis (programmed cell
death) when
the requirements of the checkpoint have not been met (Nurse, Cell, 91, 865-
867, 1997;
Hartwell et al., Science, 266, 1821-1828, 1994). Members of the checkpoint
family of
kinases have been implicated in cell proliferative disorders, cancer
phenotypes and other
diseases related to DNA damage and repair (Kumagai and Dunphy Cell Cycle, 5,
1265-1268
(2006); Xiao et al., Molecular Cancer Therapeutics 5, 1935-1943, 2006).
Aurora kinases are a family of multigene mitotic serine-threonine kinases that
216


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
functions as a class of novel oncogenes. These kinases comprise aurora-A and
aurora-B
members. Aurora kinases are hyperactivated and/or over-expressed in several
solid tumors
including but not limited to, breast, ovary, prostate, pancreas, and
colorectal cancers. In
particular aurora-A is a centrosome kinase that plays an important role cell
cycle progression
and cell proliferation. Aurora-A is located in the 20q13 chromosome region
that is frequently
amplified in several different types of malignant tumors such as colorectal,
breast and bladder
cancers. There is also a high correlation between aurora-A and high histo-
prognostic grade
aneuploidy, making the kinase a potential prognostic vehicle. Inhibition of
aurora kinase
activity may reduce cell proliferation, tumor growth and potentially
tumorigenesis. A
detailed description of aurora kinase function is reviewed in Journal of Cell
Science, 119,
3664-3675, 2006.
The Rho-associated coiled-coil-containing protein serine/threonine kinases
ROCK-1
and ROCK-2 are thought to play a major role in cytoskeletal dynamics by
serving as
downstream effectors of the Rho/Rac family of cytokine-and growth factor-
activated small
GTPases. ROCKs phosphorylate various substrates, including, but not limited
to, myosin
light chain phosphatase, myosin light chain, ezrin-radixin-moesin proteins and
LIM (for
Linl 1, Isll and Mec3) kinases. ROCKs also mediate the formation of actin
stress fibers and
focal adhesions in various cell types. ROCKs have an important role in cell
migration by
enhancing cell contractility and are required for tail retraction of monocytes
and cancer cells.
ROCK inhibitors have also been shown to reduce tumor-cell dissemination in
vivo. Recent
experiments have defined new functions of ROCKs in cells, including centrosome
positioning and cell-size regulation, which might contribute to various
physiological and
pathological states (Mueller et al, Nature Reviews Drug Discovery 4, 387-398,
2005). The
ROCK family members are attractive intervention targets for a variety of
pathologies
including cancer and cardiovascular disease. ROCK inhibitors can be useful
therapeutic
agents for hypertension, angina pectoris, and asthma. Furthermore, Rho is
expected to play a
role in peripheral circulation disorders, arteriosclerosis, inflammation, and
autoimmune
disease and as such, is a useful target for therapy (Shimokawa et al,
Arteriosclerosis,
Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 25, 1767-1775, 2005).
The limited success of pharmacotherapeutic approaches in spinal-cord injury is
based
to a large extent on the inability of injured nerve fibers in the white matter
of the human
spinal cord to regrow and re-establish synaptic contacts with their
disconnected partner
neurons. A hostile micro-environment, characterized by the presence of a large
variety of
molecular neurite-growth inhibitors at the lesion site, in the scar tissue and
on CNS myelin,

217


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
accounts for this irreversible arrest of neurite-growth. In tissue culture,
these inhibitors of
neurite growth often induce very dramatic responses, including the collapse of
the formation
and withdrawal of the neurite. Scar tissue in the human brain and spinal cord
is a strong and
persistent barrier for any regenerative neurite growth and ROCK inhibitors
might help injured
fibers to grow or sprout beyond this regeneration-inhibiting tissue. A variety
of evidence
indicates that injury to brain and spinal cord results in a strongly activated
RhoA-ROCK
pathway. Due to the persistent presence of the neurite growth inhibitors at or
around the
lesion site and in CNS myelin, such activation could potentially persist for a
long time,
making ROCK inhibition an attractive goal not only for acute and sub-acute
treatment, but
also for chronic treatment of spinal-cord injury. Inhibition of ROCK by two
different small-
molecule ROCK inhibitors (Y-27632 and fasudil) stimulated or accelerated
functional
recovery in different mouse and rat spinal-cord-injury models when given
locally or
systemically immediately after injury as a single dose or over several weeks
(Dergham, P. et
al. Rho signaling pathway targeted to promote spinal cord repair. J. Neurosci.
22, 6570-6577,
2002; Hara, M. et al. Protein kinase inhibition by fasudil hydrochloride
promotes
neurological recovery after spinal cord injury in rats. J. Neurosurg. Spine
93, 94-101, 2000.;
Fournier, A. E. et al. ROCK inhibition enhances axonal regeneration in the
injured CNS. J.
Neurosci. 23, 1416-1423, 2003; Sung, J. K. et al. A possible role of RhoA/Rho-
kinase in
experimental spinal cord injury in rat. Brain Res. 959, 29-38, 2003; Tanaka,
H. et al.
Cytoplasmic p21(Cipl/WAF1) enhances axonal regeneration and functional
recovery after
spinal cord injury in rats. Neuroscience 127, 155-164, 2004). In these
studies, ROCK
inhibition not only enhanced nerve-fiber growth beyond the lesion site, but
was also
neuroprotective and decreased tissue damage and cavity formation. On the basis
of these
rodent studies, ROCK inhibitors, which possess neuroprotective and
neuroregeneration-
stimulating activities, could offer significant benefit for spinally injured
patients. In addition,
they could normalize spinal blood flow due to their vasodilatory effects,
thereby further
enhancing tissue preservation.
Pathologically, Alzheimer's disease is characterized at the microscopic level
by
intracellular neurofibrillary tangles and extracellular amyloid aggregates.
Neurofibrillary
tangles contain aberrantly phosphorylated tau protein, a microtubule-
associated protein and
substrate for ROCK, whereas the amyloid aggregates are formed primarily by
toxic 42-
amino-acid long amyloid-(3 (A(3) peptides. It was recently shown (Zhou, Y. et
al.
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can lower amyloidogenic A042 by
inhibiting Rho.
Science 302, 1215-1217, 2003) that in cells secreting A(342 and in transgenic
PDAPP MICE

218


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
producing large amounts of A(342, some NSAIDs lowered A(342 by inhibiting the
RhoA-
ROCK pathway. The ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 was effective in lowering A0421evels
both
in cell culture and in PDAPP transgenic mice after intra-cerebroventricular
injection.
Activation of Rho by geranylgeranylpyrophosphate, a lipid required for the
membrane
attachment of Rho, increased A(3421evels; this increase was completely
prevented by Y-
27632. The ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 used in animal Alzheimer's disease models
was
efficient in lowering the amount of the toxic A(3421evels, but had no effect
on total A(3levels
and this effect of Rho or ROCK inhibitors is at least one mechanism by which
NSAIDs
reduce A0421evels. In addition to many other therapeutic interventions, these
inhibitors have
the well-documented advantage of stimulating regenerative growth of neuritis
and it is
therefore possible that the inhibition of this pathway could result in repair
of the amyloid-
damaged neural circuitry.
Most important in disease pathogenesis is the migration of leukocytes beyond
the
brain endothelium into the CNS and the inflammatory cascade stimulated by
these cells,
which finally results in demyelination of CNS fiber tracts and in neurite
damage and loss.
Leukocytes require active RhoA and ROCK for their journey beyond brain
endothelium,
because their trans-endothelial migration was prevented by the ROCK inhibitor
Y-2763294.
Neuroprotective activities of the ROCK inhibitors fasudil and hydroxy-fasudil
are not
restricted to spinal-cord injury models, but have also been reported in
cerebral multi-infarct
models in gerbils and rats (Toshima Y, Satoh S, Ikegaki I, Asano T. A new
model of
cerebral microthrombosis in rats and the neuroprotective effect of a Rho-
kinase inhibitor.
Stroke 31, 2245-2250, 2000; Satoh, S. et al. Pharmacological profile of
hydroxy fasudil as a
selective ROCK inhibitor on ischemic brain damage. Life Sci. 69, 1441-1453,
2001;
Kitaoka, Y. et al. Involvement of RhoA and possible neuroprotective effect of
fasudil, a
ROCK inhibitor, in NMDA-induced neurotoxicity in the rat retina. Brain
Res.1018, 111-118,
2004). In rodent stroke models, several regeneration inhibitors, such as the
ROCK-activating
NgRl complex and one of its ligands, NOGO-A, have been neutralized 24 hours or
even 1
week after induction of a cerebral stroke and improved functional recovery has
been observed
(Lee, J. K., Kim, J. E., Sivula, M. & Strittmatter, S. M. Nogo receptor
antagonism promotes
stroke recovery by enhancing axonal plasticity. J. Neurosci. 24, 6209-6217,
2004; Wiessner,
C. et al. Anti-Nogo-A antibody infusion 24 hours after experimental stroke
improved
behavioral outcome and corticospinal plasticity in normotensive and
spontaneously
hypertensive rats. J. Cereb. Blood FlowMetab. 23, 154-165, 2003). Blocking
ROCK is
therefore a feasible neuroregenerative strategy; furthermore, such a strategy
has the

219


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
advantage that the therapeutic treatment window for the use of these
inhibitors might be
larger than for thrombolytic or neuroprotective stroke treatment options.
Neuronal injuries in the peripheral nervous system or in the CNS of humans can
lead
to a chronic pain state known as neuropathic pain. Inflammatory mediators such
as
lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) which is produced in response to injury has
recently been shown
to be involved in initiation of neuropathic pain in a mouse model of
peripheral nerve injury
(Inoue, M. et al. Initiation of neuropathic pain requires lysophosphatidic
acid receptor
signaling. Nature Med. 10, 712-718, 2004). LPA is present at lesion sites in
the PNS and
CNS, and exerts its function by binding to G-protein-coupled LPA receptors
which results in
activation of the RhoA-ROCK pathway. The ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 prevented the
initiation of neuropathic pain after nerve injury or LPA injection, whereas
another ROCK
inhibitor, H- 1152, relieved neuropathic pain in an L5 spinal-nerve-
transection model
(Tatsumi, S. et al. Involvement of Rho-kinase in inflammatory and neuropathic
pain through
phosphorylation of myristoylated alanine-rich C-kinase substrate (MARCKS).
Neuroscience
131, 491-498, 2005). The results of these studies indicate that ROCK is a
potential drug
target responsible for the induction and also maintenance of persistent pain
states.
Moreover, Schueller et al. (Abstract 1216, 8th World Congress on Inflammation,
Copenhagen, Denmark, June 16-20, 2007) have demonstrated that SLx-2119, an
orally
bioavailable, potent and highly selective inhibitor of ROCK 2 reduces
atherogenesis in the
presence of dramatically elevated lipid levels in groups of 8 ApoE knockout
mice,
indicaticating that selective inhibition of ROCK 2 has the potential to limit
atherosclerosis.
The 70 kDa ribosomal S6 kinase (p70S6K) is activated by numerous mitogens,
growth factors and hormones. Activation of p70S6K occurs through
phosphorylation at a
number of sites and the primary target of the activated kinase is the 40S
ribosomal protein S6,
a major component of the machinery involved in protein synthesis in mammalian
cells. In
addition, p70S6K activation has been implicated in cell cycle control,
neuronal cell
differentiation, regulation of cell motility and a cellular response that is
important in tumor
metastases, immunity and tissue repair. Modulation of p70S6 kinase activity
may also have
therapeutic implications in disorders such as cancer, inflammation, and
various neuropathies.
A detailed discussion of p70S6K kinases can be found in Prog. Cell Cycle Res.,
1, 21-32,
1995, and Immunol. Cell Biol. 78, 447-5 1, 2000.
Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) is a ubiquitously expressed constitutively
active
serine/threonine kinase that phosphorylates cellular substrates and thereby
regulates a wide
variety of cellular functions, including development, metabolism, gene
transcription, protein
220


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
translation, cytoskeletal organization, cell cycle regulation, and apoptosis.
GSK-3 was
initially described as a key enzyme involved in glycogen metabolism, but is
now known to
regulate a diverse array of cell functions. Two forms of the enzyme, GSK-3+f
and GSK-
3+f, have been previously identified. The activity of GSK-3+f is negatively
regulated by
protein kinase B/Akt and by the Wnt signaling pathway. Small molecules
inhibitors of GSK-
3 may, therefore, have several therapeutic uses, including the treatment and
prevention of
neurodegenerative diseases and stimulation of neurogeneration in various
neurological
disorders (Gartner et al. J. Cell Science, 2006, 119, 3927-3934. Zhou et al.
Neuron, 2004,
42, 897-912), type II diabetes, bipolar disorders, stroke, cancer,
osteoarthritis, osteoporosis,
rheumatoid arthritis (Cuzzocrea et al. Clinical Immunology, 2006, 120, 57-67)
and chronic
inflammatory disease. General review: Kockeritz et al., Current Drug Targets,
7, 1377-
1388, 2006. Review of neurological applications: CurrentDNug Targets, 7(11),
1389-1397
and 1399-1409, 2006.
Protein kinases have become attractive targets for the treatment of cancers
(Fabbro et
al., Pharmacology & Therapeutics 93:79-98, 2002). It has been proposed that
the
involvement of protein kinases in the development of human malignancies may
occur by: (1)
genomic rearrangements (e.g., BCR-ABL in chronic myelogenous leukemia), (2)
mutations
leading to constitutively active kinase activity, such as acute myelogenous
leukemia and
gastrointestinal tumors, (3) deregulation of kinase activity by activation of
oncogenes or loss
of tumor suppressor functions, such as in cancers with oncogenic RAS, (4)
deregulation of
kinase activity by over-expression, as in the case of EGFR and (5) ectopic
expression of
growth factors that can contribute to the development and maintenance of the
neoplastic
phenotype (Fabbro et al., Pharmacology & Therapeutics 93:79-98, 2002).
Certain cancers are associated with angiogenesis. Angiogenesis is the growth
of new
capillary blood vessels from pre-existing vasculature (Risau, W., Nature
386:671-674, 1997).
It has been shown that protein kinases can contribute to the development and
maintenance of
the neoplastic phenotype (Fabbro et al., Pharmacology & Therapeutics 93:79-98,
2002). For
example, VEGF A-D and their four receptors have been implicated in phenotypes
that
involve neovascualrization and enhanced vascular permeability, such as tumor
angiogenesis
and lymphangiogenesis (Matter, A., Drug Discov. Today 6:1005-1023, 2001).
It has been recognized that a single agent approach that specifically targets
one kinase
or one kinase pathway may be inadequate to treat diseases and disorders, in
particular cancer,
for several reasons. Models have suggested that 5 to 7 mutations are necessary
for the

221


CA 02689117 2009-11-30
WO 2008/154241 PCT/US2008/065727
progression of a normal cell to a malignant one. Furthermore, it is widely
recognized that
cancer is the result of alterations in multiple pathways, in particular
protein kinase pathways
that are associated with processes such as cell growth, proliferation,
apoptosis, motility, or
invasion. In a majority of cancers, a common feature is the simultaneous
overexpression
and/or hyper-activation of a variety of protein kinases, such as receptor and
non-receptor
kinases, serine/threonine kinases, P13 kinases and cell cycle associated
kinases. In fact,
several of these kinases, either alone or in conjunction with other kinases,
have been
implicated in a number of processes important for cell survival,
proliferation, growth and
malignant transformation, motility and invasion leading to metastasis and
angiogenesis or
inflammation, and diseases, disorders, and conditions associated therewith.
Accordingly, blocking one target kinase may not be clinically sufficient
because there
are multiple target kinases that affect the progression of a condition,
disease, or disorder. In
addition, blocking one target kinase may not be clinically sufficient because
redundant
kinase-mediated pathways and alternative oncogenic or inflammatory mechanisms
may
compensate for the blocked target kinase. Moreover, the use of a single agent
can also
increase the chances that resistance to that agent will develop.
Cardiovascular disease accounts for nearly one quarter of total annual deaths
worldwide. Vascular disorders such as atherosclerosis and restenosis result
from
dysregulated growth of the vessel walls and the restriction of blood flow to
vital organs.
Various kinase pathways, e.g. JNK, are activated by atherogenic stimuli and
regulated
through local cytokine and growth factor production in vascular cells (Yang et
al., Immunity
9:575, 1998). Ischemia and ischemia coupled with reperfusion in the heart,
kidney or brain
result in cell death and scar formation, which can ultimately lead to
congestive heart failure,
renal failure or cerebral dysfumction. In organ transplantation, reperfusion
of previously
ischemic donor organs results in acute leukocyte-mediated tissue injury and
delay of graft
function. Ischemia and reperfusion pathways are mediated by various kinases.
For example,
the JNK pathway has been linked to leukocyte-mediated tissue damage (Li et
al., Mol. Cell.
Biol. 16:5947-5954, 1996). Finally, enhanced apoptosis in cardiac tissues has
also been
linked to kinase activity (Pombo et al., J. Biol. Chem. 269:26546-26551,
1994).
