Definitions
- Cyclin-dependent kinase 12 is an important transcription-associated CDK. Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are a group of serine/threonine protein kinases that play crucial roles in various cellular processes by regulating cell cycle and gene transcription.
- CDK12 shows versatile roles in regulating gene transcription, RNA splicing, translation, DNA damage response, cell cycle progression, and cell proliferation. Recently, increasing evidence demonstrates the important role of CDK12 in various human cancers, illustrating it as both a biomarker of cancer and a potential target for cancer therapy.
- CDK12 also is known to have an important role in DNA repair and homologous recombination, and thus is directly implicated in enabling cancers to survive exposure to poly ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, such as olaparib. Therefore, loss of CDK12 protein or inactivation of CDK12 kinase activity leads to genome instability and renders cells more sensitive to eradication.
- PARP poly ADP ribose polymerase
- CDK12 targets including ATR and histones
- ATR and histones are involved in multiple DNA repair pathways, including mismatch repair.
- defects in mismatch repair have been found to confer sensitivity of cells to cancer immunotherapy.
- modulators of CDK12 could help the immune system eradicate cells expressing aberrant levels of CDK12 in subjects.
- CDK12 also is known to play a role in regulating cell cycle progression and cell proliferation. Specifically, deletion of CDK12 has been shown to prolong the cell cycle. Long-term depletion of CDK12 has many effects including inducing cell accumulation in G2/M phase, inducing the G1/S cell cycle progression defect, and inducing the decreased expression of some crucial DNA replication genes e.g.
- compounds that modulate the CDK12 pathway can used in the treatment of cancer and cancer- related disorders and diseases including breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, and gastric cancer.

Description
CYCLIN-DEPENDENT KINASE 12 MODULATORS AND THERAPEUTIC USES THEREOF FIELD [0001] This disclosure relates to compounds that act as modulators of cyclin-dependent kinase 12 (CDK12), pharmaceutical formulations thereof, and methods of using the compounds to treat diseases and disorders, such as cancer and cancer-related diseases and disorders. BACKGROUND [0002] Cyclin-dependent kinase 12 (CDK12) is an important transcription-associated CDK. Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are a group of serine/threonine protein kinases that play crucial roles in various cellular processes by regulating cell cycle and gene transcription. It shows versatile roles in regulating gene transcription, RNA splicing, translation, DNA damage response, cell cycle progression, and cell proliferation. Recently, increasing evidence demonstrates the important role of CDK12 in various human cancers, illustrating it as both a biomarker of cancer and a potential target for cancer therapy. [0003] CDK12 also is known to have an important role in DNA repair and homologous recombination, and thus is directly implicated in enabling cancers to survive exposure to poly ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, such as olaparib. Therefore, loss of CDK12 protein or inactivation of CDK12 kinase activity leads to genome instability and renders cells more sensitive to eradication. Several CDK12 targets, including ATR and histones, are involved in multiple DNA repair pathways, including mismatch repair. Importantly, defects in mismatch repair have been found to confer sensitivity of cells to cancer immunotherapy. Accordingly, modulators of CDK12 could help the immune system eradicate cells expressing aberrant levels of CDK12 in subjects. [0004] CDK12 also is known to play a role in regulating cell cycle progression and cell proliferation. Specifically, deletion of CDK12 has been shown to prolong the cell cycle. Long-term depletion of CDK12 has many effects including inducing cell accumulation in G2/M phase, inducing the G1/S cell cycle progression defect, and inducing the decreased expression of some crucial DNA replication genes e.g. TOPBP1 (DNA topoisomerase II binding protein 1), CDC6 (cell division cycle 6) and CDT1 (Cdc10-dependent transcript 1). [0005] As cell cycle is closely related with cell proliferation, aberrant cell cycle progression may result in abnormal cell proliferation. CDK12 is required for multiple steps in mitosis. Thus, CDK12 deficiency has been shown to inhibit cell proliferation and induce apoptosis via the induction of mitotic catastrophe. Additionally, various human cancers characterized by uncontrolled cell proliferation have high levels of CDK12. Accordingly, CDK12 is an attractive target for the treatment of various human cancers. [0006] Thus, compounds that modulate the CDK12 pathway can used in the treatment of cancer and cancer- related disorders and diseases including breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, and gastric cancer.

Pharmaceutically Acceptable Salts [0040] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to salts of a compound which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of humans and lower animals without undue side effects, such as, toxicity, irritation, allergic response and the like, and are commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio. [0041] Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are well known in the art. For example, S. M. Berge et al., describe pharmaceutically acceptable salts in detail in J. Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1977, 66, 1-19, which is incorporated herein by reference. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds described herein include those derived from suitable inorganic and organic acids and bases. These salts can be prepared in situ during the final isolation and purification of the compounds. [0042] Where the compound described herein contains a basic group, or a sufficiently basic bioisostere, acid addition salts can be prepared by 1) reacting the purified compound in its free-base form with a suitable organic or inorganic acid and 2) isolating the salt thus formed. In practice, acid addition salts might be a more convenient form for use and use of the salt amounts to use of the free basic form. [0043] Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable, non-toxic acid addition salts are salts of an amino group formed with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid and perchloric acid or with organic acids such as acetic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, succinic acid or malonic acid or by using other methods used in the art such as ion exchange.

[0044] Where the compound described herein contains a carboxyl group or a sufficiently acidic bioisostere, base addition salts can be prepared by 1) reacting the purified compound in its acid form with a suitable organic or inorganic base and 2) isolating the salt thus formed. In practice, use of the base addition salt might be more convenient and use of the salt form inherently amounts to use of the free acid form. Salts derived from appropriate bases include alkali metal (e.g., sodium, lithium, and potassium), alkaline earth metal (e.g.,
magnesium and calcium), ammonium and N+(C1-4alkyl)4 salts. This disclosure also envisions the quaternization of any basic nitrogen-containing groups of the compounds disclosed herein.

Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polethylene glycols and the like. [0057] The active compounds can also be in microencapsulated form with one or more excipients as noted above. The solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, and granules can be prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings, release controlling coatings and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulating art. In such solid dosage forms the active compound may be admixed with at least one inert diluent such as sucrose, lactose or starch. Such dosage forms may also comprise, as is normal practice, additional substances other than inert diluents, e.g., tableting lubricants and other tableting aids such a magnesium stearate and microcrystalline cellulose. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage forms may also comprise buffering agents. They may optionally contain opacifying agents and can also be of a composition 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. [0058] The pharmaceutical compositions and formulations described herein may also be administered topically or transdermally, especially when the target of treatment includes areas or organs readily accessible by topical application, including diseases of the eye, the skin, or the lower intestinal tract. Suitable topical formulations are readily prepared for each of these areas or organs. Topical application for the lower intestinal tract, e.g., can be effected in a rectal suppository formulation or in a suitable enema formulation. Dosage forms for topical or transdermal administration of a compound described herein include ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, powders, solutions, sprays, inhalants, suppositories, or patches. [0059] For topical applications, the pharmaceutical compositions may be formulated in a suitable ointment, cream, lotion, or gel, containing the active component suspended or dissolved in one or more carriers, and any needed preservatives or buffers as may be required. Carriers for topical administration of the compounds of this disclosure include, but are not limited to, mineral oil, liquid petrolatum, white petrolatum, propylene glycol,
polyoxyethylene, polyoxypropylene compound, emulsifying wax and water. Alternatively, the pharmaceutical compositions can be formulated in a suitable lotion or cream containing the active components suspended or dissolved in one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. Suitable carriers include, but are not limited to, mineral oil, sorbitan monostearate, polysorbate 60, cetyl esters wax, cetearyl alcohol, 2 octyldodecanol, benzyl alcohol and water. [0060] Ophthalmic formulation, eardrops, and eye drops are also contemplated as being within the scope of this disclosure. Additionally, the present disclosure contemplates the use of transdermal patches, which have the added advantage of providing controlled delivery of a compound to the body. Such dosage forms can be made by dissolving or dispensing the compound in the proper medium. Absorption enhancers can also be used to increase the flux of the compound across the skin. The rate can be controlled by either providing a rate controlling membrane or by dispersing the compound in a polymer matrix or gel. [0061] Injectable preparations, for example, sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions may be formulated according to the known art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution, suspension or emulsion in a nontoxic parenterally acceptable diluent or solvent, for example, as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution, U.S.P. and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose, any bland fixed oil can be employed including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid are used in the preparation of injectables. [0062] 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 prior to use. [0063] In order to prolong the effect of a compound described herein, it is often desirable to slow the absorption of the compound from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This may be accomplished by the use of a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous material with poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the compound 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 compound form is accomplished by dissolving or suspending the compound in an oil vehicle. Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of the compound in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. Depending upon the ratio of compound to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer employed, the rate of compound release can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot injectable formulations are also prepared by entrapping the compound in liposomes or microemulsions that are compatible with body tissues. [0064] Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are specifically suppositories which can be prepared by mixing the compounds described herein with suitable non-irritating excipients or carriers such as cocoa butter,
polyethylene glycol or a suppository wax which are solid at ambient temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity and release the active compound. [0065] Sterile injectable forms of the compositions described herein may be aqueous or oleaginous suspension. These suspensions may be formulated according to techniques known in the art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterally-acceptable diluent or solvent, for example as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose, any bland fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono- or di-glycerides. Fatty acids, such as oleic acid and its glyceride derivatives are useful in the preparation of injectables, as are natural pharmaceutically acceptable oils, such as olive oil or castor oil, especially in their polyoxyethylated versions. These oil solutions or suspensions may also contain a long-chain alcohol diluent or dispersant, such as carboxymethyl cellulose or similar dispersing agents which are commonly used in the formulation of pharmaceutically acceptable dosage forms including emulsions and suspensions. Other commonly used surfactants, such as Tweens, Spans and other emulsifying agents or bioavailability enhancers which are commonly used in the manufacture of pharmaceutically acceptable solid, liquid, or other dosage forms may also be used for the purposes of formulation. [0066] The pharmaceutical compositions may also be administered by nasal aerosol or inhalation. Such compositions are prepared according to techniques well-known in the art of pharmaceutical formulation and may be prepared as solutions in saline, employing benzyl alcohol or other suitable preservatives, absorption promoters to enhance bioavailability, fluorocarbons, and/or other conventional solubilizing or dispersing agents. [0067] The compounds for use in the methods of the disclosure can be formulated in unit dosage form. The term "unit dosage form" refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosage for subjects undergoing treatment, with each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect, optionally in association with a suitable pharmaceutical carrier. The unit dosage form can be for a single daily dose or one of multiple daily doses (e.g., about 1 to 4 or more times per day). When multiple daily doses are used, the unit dosage form can be the same or different for each dose. [0068] The compounds of the disclosure can be administered to a subject or patient at dosage levels in the range of about 0.1 to about 3,000 mg per day. For a normal adult human having a body weight of about 70 kg, a dosage in the range of about 0.01 to about 100 mg per kilogram body weight is typically sufficient. The specific dosage and dosage range that will be used can potentially depend on a number of factors, including the requirements of the subject or patient, the severity of the condition or disease being treated, and the pharmacological activity of the compound being administered. The determination of dosage ranges and optimal dosages for a particular subject or patient is within the ordinary skill in the art.
Methods of Treatment [0069] The compounds disclosed herein, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, can act as modulators of CDK12. Cyclin-dependent kinase 12 (CDK12) is a serine/threonine protein kinase that plays an important role in various cellular processes by regulating cell cycle and gene transcription. Loss of CDK12 protein or inactivation of CDK12 kinase activity leads to genome instability and renders cells more sensitive to eradication. Additionally, long-term depletion of CDK12 induces the decreased expression of some crucial DNA replication genes (e.g., TOPBP1 (DNA topoisomerase II binding protein 1), CDC6 (cell division cycle 6) and CDT1 (Cdc10-dependent transcript 1). Recently, increasing evidence demonstrates the important role of CDK12 in various human cancers, illustrating it as both a biomarker of cancer and a potential target for cancer therapy. [0070] Thus, the disclosure provides a method of modulating cyclin-dependent kinase 12 (CDK12) comprising contacting the CDK12 with a therapeutically effective amount of a compound or salt disclosed herein or a formulation thereof, in an amount effective to modulate CDK12 activity. In some cases, the contacting occurs in vitro. In some cases, the contacting occurs in vivo. In some cases, the contacting comprises administering to a subject in need thereof. As used herein, the terms “patient” and “subject” may be used interchangeably and mean animals, such as dogs, cats, cows, horses, and sheep (i.e., non-human animals) and humans. In some cases, the patient is a mammal (e.g., human). In some cases, the subject suffers from cancer. In some cases, the cancer is breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, or gastric cancer. [0071] Another aspect of the disclosure provides a method of treating a disease or disorder in a subject, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound or salt disclosed herein or a formulation thereof. In some cases, the terms “treating”, “treat” or “treatment” and the like can include preventative (e.g., prophylactic) and palliative treatment. In some cases, the disease or disorder is cancer. In some cases, the disease or disorder is breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, or gastric cancer. [0072] Another aspect of the disclosure provides the use of a compound disclosed herein, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a formulation thereof in the treatment of a disease or disorder associated with aberrant CDK12 activity in a subject, where the treatment increases activity of the subject’s immune system to eradicate cells associated with aberrant CDK12 activity. In various cases, the disease or disorder is cancer. In some cases, the cancer is breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, or gastric cancer. [0073] Also contemplated is the use of a compound disclosed herein, or salt thereof, or a formulation comprising a compound or salt disclosed herein for the manufacture of a medicament in the treatment of cancer, such as breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, or gastric cancer. [0074] In jurisdictions that forbid the patenting of methods that are practiced on the human body, the meaning of “administering” of a composition to a human subject or patient shall be restricted to prescribing a controlled substance that a human subject or patient will self-administer by any technique (e.g., orally, inhalation, topical application, injection, insertion, etc.). The broadest reasonable interpretation that is consistent with laws or regulations defining patentable subject matter is intended. In jurisdictions that do not forbid the patenting of
methods that are practiced on the human body, the “administering” of compositions includes both methods practiced on the human body and also the foregoing activities.
