Abstract

Disclosed herein are pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines that form covalent bonds with Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk). Also described are irreversible inhibitors of Btk. Methods for the preparation of the compounds are disclosed. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions that include the compounds. Methods of using the Btk inhibitors are disclosed, alone or in combination with other therapeutic agents, for the treatment of autoimmune diseases or conditions, heteroimmune diseases or conditions, cancer, including lymphoma, and inflammatory diseases or conditions.

Claims (28)

1. A method for treating Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) in an individual comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount an irreversible covalent Btk inhibitor having the structure of Formula (A):

wherein

A is N;

R 1 is L 2 -(substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl) or L 2 -(substituted or unsubstituted aryl), where L 2 is a bond, O, S, —S(═O), —S(═O) 2 , C(═O), -(substituted or unsubstituted C 1 -C 6 alkylene), or -(substituted or unsubstituted C 2 -C 6 -alkenylene);

R 2 and R 3 are independently H or lower alkyl;

R 4 is L 3 -X-L 4 -G, wherein,

L 3 is optional, and when present is a bond, optionally substituted or unsubstituted alkylene, optionally substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkylene, optionally substituted or unsubstituted alkenylene, or optionally substituted or unsubstituted alkynylene;

X is optional, and when present is a bond, O, —C(═O), S, —S(═O), —S(═O) 2 , —NH, —NR 9 , —NHC(O), —C(O)NH, —NR 9 C(O), —C(O)NR 9 , —S(═O) 2 NH, —NHS(═O) 2 , —S(═O) 2 NR 9 —, —NR 9 S(═O) 2 , —OC(O)NH—, —NHC(O)O—, —OC(O)NR 9 —, —NR 9 C(O)O—, —CH═NO—, —ON═CH—, —NR 10 C(O)NR 10 —, heteroarylene, arylene, —NR 10 C(═NR 11 )NR 10 —, —NR 10 C(═NR 11 )—, —C(═NR 11 )NR 10 —, —OC(═NR 11 )—, or —C(═NR 11 )O—;

L 4 is optional, and when present is a bond, substituted or unsubstituted alkylene, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkylene, substituted or unsubstituted alkenylene, substituted or unsubstituted alkynylene, substituted or unsubstituted arylene, substituted or unsubstituted heteroarylene, or substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclene;

or L 3 , X and L 4 taken together form a nitrogen containing heterocyclic ring;

G is

wherein,

R 6 , R 7 and R 8 are each independently H;

R 9 is selected from among H, substituted or unsubstituted lower alkyl, and substituted or unsubstituted lower cycloalkyl;

each R 10 is independently H, substituted or unsubstituted lower alkyl, or substituted or unsubstituted lower cycloalkyl; or

two R 10 groups can together form a 5-, 6-, 7-, or 8-membered heterocyclic ring; or

R 10 and R 11 can together form a 5-, 6-, 7-, or 8-membered heterocyclic ring; or

R 11 is selected from H, —S(═O) 2 R 8 , —S(═O) 2 NH 2 , —C(O)R 8 , —CN, —NO 2 , heteroaryl, or heteroalkyl; or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate, hydrate, or salt thereof.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the inhibitor of Btk is administered orally.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the inhibitor forms a covalent bond to a cysteine sidechain of a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk).

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the cysteine sidechain of the Btk is the sidechain of cysteine 481.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the inhibitor is a compound having the structure:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate, hydrate, or salt thereof.

6. A method for treating Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) in an individual comprising administering to the individual in need thereof an inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk), having the structure:

7. The method of claim 1 wherein L 3 , X and L 4 taken together form a nitrogen containing heterocyclic ring.

8. The method of claim 7 wherein G is

9. The method of claim 8 wherein R 1 is L 2 -substituted or unsubstituted aryl.

10. The method of claim 9 wherein R 1 is L 2 is a bond.
