Abstract

The present disclosure provides STING modulators/agonists, and methods of synthesis and methods for using for the prophylaxis or treatment of cancer and other STING-related diseases. The present disclosure relates to a compound represented by the Formula (I): wherein each symbol is as defined in the description, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Claims (59)

1. A compound of Formula I:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein:

X 1 is —SH or —OH;

X 2 is —SH or —OH;

Y a is —O—, —S—, or —CH 2 —;

Y b is —O—, —S—, —NH—, or —NR a —, wherein Ra is C 1 -C 4 alkyl;

R 1 is hydrogen, fluoro, —OH, —NH 2 , —OR b , or —NHR b ;

R 2 is hydrogen or fluoro;

R 3 is hydrogen; R 4 is hydrogen, fluoro, —OH, —NH 2 , —OR b , or —NHR b ; or R 3 and R 4 are taken together to form —CH 2 O—;

R 5 is hydrogen or fluoro;

R b is C 1 -C 6 alkyl, halo(C 1 -C 6 )alkyl, or C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl;

Ring A is an optionally substituted 5- or 6-membered monocyclic heteroaryl ring containing 1-4 heteroatoms selected from N, O, or S, or an optionally substituted 9- or 10-membered bicyclic heteroaryl ring containing 1-5 heteroatoms selected from N, O, or S; wherein Ring A comprises at least one N atom in the ring, and wherein Y b is attached to a carbon atom of Ring A; and Ring B is an optionally substituted 9- or 10-membered bicyclic heteroaryl ring containing 2-5 heteroatoms selected from N, O, or S; wherein Ring B comprises at least two N atoms in the ring.

2. The compound of claim 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein:

X 1 and X 2 are —SH; and

the phosphorus atom of each phosphorothioate linkage is R p .

3. The compound of claim 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein Y a is —CH 2 —.

4. The compound of claim 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein:

R 1 is fluoro or —OH;

R 4 is hydrogen or fluoro; and

R 2 , R 3 , and R 5 are hydrogen.

5. The compound of claim 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein:

Ring A is an optionally substituted 6-membered monocyclic heteroaryl ring containing 1-3 N atoms.

6. The compound of claim 5 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein:

Ring A is:

7. The compound of claim 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein:

Ring B is an optionally substituted 9- membered bicyclic heteroaryl ring containing 3-5 N atoms; and

the Y a -containing 5-membered ring is attached to a nitrogen atom of Ring B.

8. The compound of claim 7 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein Ring B is:

9. The compound of claim 1 , having Formula (VI):

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein

X 1 is —SH or —OH;

X 2 is —SH or —OH;

Y b is —O—, —S—, —NH—, or —NMe—;

R 1 is hydrogen, fluoro, —OH, or —OR b ;

R 2 is hydrogen or fluoro;

R 3 is hydrogen; R 4 is hydrogen, fluoro, or —OH;

R 5 is hydrogen or fluoro;

R b is C 1 -C 6 alkyl, halo(C 1 -C 6 )alkyl, or C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl;

each R 10 is independently hydrogen, halogen, —OH, —NH 2 , C 1 -C 6 alkyl, halo(C 1 -C 6 )alkyl, C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl, —OR 11 , —NHR 11 , —CN, —NO 2 , or —C(O)NHR 12 ;

R 11 is C 1 -C 6 alkyl, halo(C 1 -C 6 )alkyl, or C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl;

R 12 is hydrogen, C 1 -C 6 alkyl, halo(C 1 -C 6 )alkyl, or C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl;

m is 0, 1, or 2;

Z 1 is N, CH, or CF;

R 21 is hydrogen or —CH 3 ; and

R 22 is hydrogen, —NH 2 , or —CH 3 .

10. The compound of claim 9 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein Y b is —O—.

11. The compound of claim 9 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein X 1 and X 2 are —SH, and wherein the phosphorus atom of each phosphorothioate linkage is chiral and is independently R p or S p .

12. The compound of claim 9 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R 2 , R 3 , and R 5 are hydrogen.

13. The compound of claim 9 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R 1 is hydrogen, fluoro, or —OH.

14. The compound of claim 9 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R 4 is hydrogen or fluoro.

15. The compound of claim 9 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein m is 0.

16. The compound of claim 9 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein Z 1 is N.

17. The compound of claim 9 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R 21 is hydrogen.

18. The compound of claim 9 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R 22 is —NH 2 .

19. The compound of claim 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the compound is selected from:

20. A pharmaceutical composition comprising (a) the compound of claim 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and (b) a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
