Replacement of Imidazolyl by Pyridyl in Biphenylmethylenes Results in Selective CYP17 and Dual CYP17/CYP11B1 Inhibitors for the Treatment of Prostate Cancer
摘要:
Androgens are well-known to stimulate prostate cancer (PC) growth. Thus, blockade of androgen production in testes and adrenals by CYP17 inhibition is a promising strategy for the treatment of PC. Moreover, many PC patients suffer from glucocorticoid overproduction, and importantly mutated androgen receptors can be stimulated by glucocorticoids. In this study, the first dual inhibitor of CYP17 and CYP11B1 (the enzyme responsible for the last step in glucocorticoid biosynthesis) is described. A series of biphenylmethylene pyridines has been designed, synthesized, and tested as CYP17 and CYP11B1 inhibitors. The most active compounds were also tested for selectivity against CYP11B2 (aldosterone synthase), CYP19 (aromatase), and hepatic CYP3A4. In detail, compound 6 was identified as a dual inhibitor of CYP17/CYP11B1 (IC50 values of 226 and 287 nM) showing little inhibition of the other enzymes as well as compound 9 as a selective, highly potent CYP17 inhibitor (IC50 = 52 nM) exceeding abiraterone in terms of activity and selectivity.

The invention provides compounds for use as medicaments, which act by inhibiting CYP17A1 and CYP19A1 enzymes. The compounds have particular application in the treatment of cancer especially prostate cancer and breast cancer. The compounds have the formula: [Chem. 1] wherein: R is independently selected from the group consisting of optionally substituted arylamide; optionally substituted alkylarylamide; optionally substituted aryl carboxamide; optionally substituted cyanopiperidine; optionally substituted oxopiperidine; optionally substituted N-(pyridin-3-yl); optionally substituted pyridin-3-yl; optionally substituted pyrazole-4-carboxamide; optionally substituted pyrimidin-4-ylcarboxamide; optionally substituted pyrimidin-4-ylcarboxamide; optionally substituted 1H-pyrrol-2-ylcarboxamide; optionally substituted morpholin carboxamide; optionally substituted 1H-indazol-3-ylcarboxamide; optionally substituted 5-cyanopiperidin-3-ylcarboxamide; optionally substituted quinolin-7-yl; optionally substituted pyrazin-2-ylcarboxamide; optionally substituted 1H-1,3-benzodiazole-6-carboxamide; and optionally substituted 3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-7-ylcarboxamide; Each R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 is independently selected from the group consisting of H; OH; a halogen atom; OCH3; and NH2; and X is independently selected from the group consisting of O, H and OH. Some of the compounds are claimed per se and the invention also encompasses pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, primary metabolites and prodrugs thereof.
