(994) Compounds of formula S36-13 may be prepared according to Scheme 36. Conversion of aniline S36-1 to corresponding sulfonyl chloride S36-2 occurs upon treatment with sodium nitrite, thionyl chloride, copper(I) chloride, and HCl. Reaction of S36-2 with aqueous ammonia provides sulfonamide S36-3. Reaction with N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal then generates N-sulfonylformamidine S36-4. Suzuki coupling with a vinyl boronate ester such as S36-5 gives enol ether S36-6. Treatment with HCl leads to hydrolysis of the formamidine and enol ether and cyclization to give S36-7. Hydrogenation of S36-7 with Pd/C as catalyst gives S36-8. CH oxidation of S36-8 with pinacol borane in the presence of catalyst Bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)dimethoxydiiridium gives S36-9, which may undergo oxidation upon treatment with H.sub.2O.sub.2 and potassium carbonate to give phenol derivative S36-10. S36-10 undergoes alkylation with 1,2-dibromoethane under conditions described above to deliver S36-11. Coupling of S36-11 with amine S36-12 under conditions described above gives compounds of formula S36-13.

Cells were maintained in the following standard complete medium: DMEM with 4.5 g/L glucose and sodium pyruvate (BioWhittaker, Lonza, BE12-614F), supplemented with 10% FBS Performance Plus (Gibco, 16000044), 1% penicillin-streptomycin (BioWhittaker, DE17-602E), 2 mM ultraglutamine-1 (BioWhittaker cat. BE 17-605/U1), 50 ?g/mL Zeocin (InvivoGen, ant-zn), 2.5 ?g/mL Blasticidin (InvivoGen, ant-bl-5), and 25 ?g/mL Hygromycin (InvivoGen, ant-hg). Standard propagation conditions consisted of plating 9?10.sup.6, 4?10.sup.6, 2?10.sup.6 cells in a T225 flasks to be processed after 2, 3, or 4 days, respectively.

(2776) A source plate was generated containing 20 serially diluted compounds in DMSO (duplicate 8-point dose response). Next, 0.8 ?L of compounds were transferred from the source plate to a destination plate prefilled with 79.2 ?L of Ca.sup.2+ free Tyrode's buffer (130 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 1 mM MgCl.sub.2, 5 mM NaHCO.sub.3, 20 mM HEPES at pH 7.4). The destination plate was placed on a plate shaker (5 seconds at 2000 rpm) to mix. This process resulted in a destination plate with 2? concentrated compound solutions. All transfer and mixing steps were conducted with an CyBi?-Well dispenser.

(2777) Cells were split by gently washing with DPBS (Euroclone, ECB4004L), followed by a 5-minute incubation (humidified, 37? C. with 5% CO.sub.2) with trypsin-EDTA solution (Euroclone, ECB3052D). Detached cells were diluted with standard complete medium without selective agents, counted, and plated in a 384 MTP microplate (GR4332CPL, Twin Helix) (10,000 cells/well in 25 ?l/well) using a MATRIX WellMate dispenser. Plates were placed into a humidified incubator (37? C. with 5% CO.sub.2) overnight. The following day, 20 ?L of doxycycline (Sigma, D9891) at 20 ng/mL in standard complete medium was added to cells with a CyBi?Drop dispenser to induce APOL1 G2 expression. After a 6-hour incubation (humidified, 37? C. with 5% CO.sub.2), cells were washed 3 times with Ca.sup.2+ free Tyrode's Buffer (130 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 1 mM MgCl.sub.2, 5 mM NaHCO.sub.3, 20 mM HEPES at pH 7.4) using a BIOTEK Microplate washer, such that 10 ?L of buffer remained in each well after the final wash. Assay plates were then stored at room temperature for 10 minutes. Next, 10 ?L of diluted compounds were transferred to the assay plate from the 2? compound plate using a CyBi?-Well dispenser. Compound incubation was then carried out at room temperature for 10 minutes. The assay plate was transferred to the FLIPR.sup.TETRA and 20 ?L of 10 mM Ca.sup.2+ (final concentration=5 mM) Tyrode's buffer was injected.

(2778) Table 39 below summarizes the data from this experiment. Unless otherwise specified, AC.sub.50 and values are reported as the geometric mean of at least 2 assay runs on separate days. Each run represents the average of a technical replicate, where each compound was assayed twice in the same plate. A superscript t symbol indicates a value from the average of a technical replicate from a single assay run, where each compound was assayed twice in the same plate.

(2779) The AC.sub.50 values in Table 39 below reflect the compound's ability to prevent calcium influx by inhibiting APOL1. As shown in the table, numerous compounds of the present disclosure are able to potently inhibit APOL1-mediated calcium transport at sub micromolar concentrations. Compounds in Table 39 are referred to by the corresponding Compound Number in Table 1, which is also referred to in the synthetic examples. When one or more of the numbered compounds are identified by stereochemistry (for example, (R)- or (S)-), the specific stereoisomer for which data is provided in Table 39 may be identified by the elution order of such compound as described in the synthetic examples. For example, Compounds 39 and 40 are associated with Step 5 of Example 13, where Compound 39 is the first eluting enantiomer, and Compound 40 is the second eluting enantiomer in the chiral separation of Compound 38. For Table 39 below, n/a represents not available.

Example B2

(2781) This example shows that the compounds of the present disclosure are able to reduce cell death caused by overexpression of APOL1.

(2782) A HEK293 clonal cell line overexpressing APOL1 G2 (HEK293/T-REx APOL1 G2/clone #2) was maintained in 1?DMEM-GlutaMax (Gibco, 10569-010) media with 10% tetracycline-free FBS (Takara Bio USA, 631101), 5 ?g/mL Blasticidin (Gibco, A1113903), and 100 ?g/mL Zeocin (Invitrogen, R25001) in T75 flasks. In preparation for the assay, this media was aspirated and 2 mL of prewarmed TrypLE Express (Gibco, 12605-010) was added to a flask to detach cells. The flask was then incubated (humidified, 37? C. with 5% CO.sub.2) for 3-5 minutes. Afterwards, 8 mL of prewarmed cell assay media (1?DMEM-GlutaMax media with 10% tetracycline-free FBS) was added to the trypsinized cells. The suspension was gently mixed, and cells were counted using a Countess Cell Counting Chamber (Invitrogen). The suspension was diluted using cell assay media to generate a working stock solution (166,667 cells/mL). Using a MultiDrop Combi (Thermo Electron Corp), 30 ?L (final cell density=5,000 cells/well) of the working stock solution was dispensed into each well of white 384-well assay ready plates (Nunc? 164610) containing 6 ng/mL doxycycline, to induce APOL1 expression, and compound. All compounds were plated in a duplicate 8-point dilution series that consisted of 3-fold stepwise dilutions (0.5% DMSO final). Assay plates were incubated (humidified, 37? C. with 5% CO.sub.2) for 17 hours. After the incubation, the plates were equilibrated at room temperature for 1 hour. Next, 15 ?l of CellTiter-Glo? reagent (Promega, G7570) was added to each well using a MultiDrop Combi. Plates were placed on an orbital shaker (500 rpm) for 5 minutes to induce cell lysis and then incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes. Luminescence was measured on an Envision plate reader. Collaborative Drug Discovery software was utilized for graphing data. Plots were generated using a four parameter logistic curve fit.

(2783) Table 40 below provides the results from this experiment. Unless otherwise specified, EC.sub.50 values are reported as the geometric mean of at least 2 assay runs on separate days. Each run represents the average of a technical replicate, where each compound was assayed twice in the same plate. A superscript t symbol indicates a value from the average of a technical replicate from a single assay run, where each compound was assayed twice in the same plate. Compounds in Table 40 are referred to by the corresponding Compound Number in Table 1, which is also referred to in the synthetic examples. When one or more of the numbered compounds are identified by stereochemistry (for example, (R)- or (S)-), the specific stereoisomer for which data is provided in Table 40 may be identified by the elution order of such compound as described in the synthetic examples. Absolute stereochemistry of such compounds may be identified by methods known in the art. For Table 40 below, n/a represents not available.

(2784) Rescue EC.sub.50 values reported in Table 40 below represent the half-maximal effective concentration for reversal of cell death caused by overexpression of APOL1. This example demonstrates that compounds of the present disclosure are able to reduce cell death caused by overexpression of APOL1 at sub micromolar concentration.

Example B3

(2787) This example shows that the compounds of the present disclosure are able to reduce cell death caused by overexpression of APOL1.

(2788) Compounds were also assayed in a HEK293 clonal cell line overexpressing APOL1 G1 by a method similar to that shown in Example B2 above.

(2789) Table 41 below provides the results from this experiment. Unless otherwise specified, EC.sub.50 values are reported as the geometric mean of at least 2 assay runs on separate days. Each run represents the average of a technical replicate, where each compound was assayed twice in the same plate. A superscript t symbol indicates a value from the average of a technical replicate from a single assay run, where each compound was assayed twice in the same plate. A Y symbol represents compound concentration at 50% rescue estimated due to lack of sigmoidal curve preventing curve fitting. Compounds in Table 41 are referred to by the corresponding Compound Number in Table 1, which is also referred to in the synthetic examples. When one or more of the numbered compounds are identified by stereochemistry (for example, (R)- or (S)-), the specific stereoisomer for which data is provided in Table 41 may be identified by the elution order of such compound as described in the synthetic examples. Absolute stereochemistry of such compounds may be identified by methods known in the art. For Table 41 below, n/a represents not available.

Example B4

(2792) APOL1 G2 human immortalized podocyte viability assay for measurement of cytotoxicity reversal by compound (APOL1 G2 podocyte cell rescue assay). This example shows that the compounds of the present disclosure are able to reverse cytotoxicity in human immortalized podocytes.

(2793) Cell Handling. The hTERT-immortalized kidney podocyte cell line was procured from the laboratory of Dr. Moin Saleem at the University of Bristol, UK (Nephrology 17 (2012) 525-531; doi:10.1111/j.1440-1797.2012.01619.x; herein incorporated by reference in its entirety). Parental and engineered cell lines were cultured in RPMI 1640 media (Gibco, 11875093) with 10% Tet System Approved FBS (Takara, 631101). The engineered cell line was maintained under selection (2.5 ?g/mL puromycin). Cell lines were maintained and engineered at 33? C. Cell cultures were transferred to 37? C. for 10 to 14 days to initiate differentiation (Nephrology 17 (2012) 525-531; doi:10.1111/j.1440-1797.2012.01619.x; herein incorporated by reference in its entirety). During this time, media was refreshed every 3 days. After differentiation, cells engineered to inducibly express APOL1 G2 were used in the podocyte cell rescue assay.

(2794) Cell Line Engineering. The APOL1 G2 coding sequence was cloned into the pLVX-TetOne-Puro vector and verified by sequencing (Genscript Biotech). This construct was designed to have a C-terminal HiBiT tag. Lentiviral packaging of the vector was conducted using the Lenti-X Packaging Single Shots (VSVG) system according to manufacturer instructions (Takara Bio, 631275). A stable cell line was generated by transfecting the parental podocyte cell line with the concentrated virus in media with 5 ?g/mL polybrene (Sigma, TR-1003-G). Media was changed the following day. 72 hours post transfection, 2.5 ?g/mL puromycin (Gibco, A1113803) was added to the cells and cells were maintained in selection media thereafter. This APOL1 G2 stable cellular pool was subjected to a stringent limiting dilution to generate a pure stable clone (Podocyte/pLVX-TetOne APOL1 G2/clone D10) capable of inducible expression of APOL1 G2.

(2795) Assay Setup. T175 flasks containing differentiated podocytes engineered to inducibly express APOL1 G2 (Podocyte/pLVX-TetOne APOL1 G2/clone D10) were washed once with 15 mL of DPBS (Thermo Fisher, 14190-144). These flasks were each trypsinized with 3 mL of prewarmed TrypLE Express (Gibco, 12605-010) and incubated at 37? C. with 5% CO.sub.2 until cells detached and neutralized with 7 mL of prewarmed assay media (RPMI 1640 media with 10% Tet System Approved FBS, no selection agent). Cells were pooled and the resulting suspension was gently mixed. The cell suspension was counted using a Countess Cell Counting Chamber (Invitrogen) and the cell concentration was adjusted to 240,000 cells/mL using assay media. Next, 25 ?L of a 480 ng/mL working stock of doxycycline diluted in assay media was added to an assay ready plate. All experiments were performed in 384-well, white, solid bottom, tissue culture treated plates (Greiner, 781080). The assay ready compound plates were generated with duplicate 8-point compound dilution series that consisted of 3-fold stepwise dilutions (0.4% DMSO final). The plates were centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 1 minute. 25 ?L of diluted cell suspension (final cell density=6,000 cells/well) was added to each well. The plates were centrifuged again at 1000 rpm for 1 minute and then incubated in a humidified incubator (37? C. with 5% CO.sub.2). After 95 hours, the assay plates were removed from the incubator and allowed to equilibrate to room temperature for 1 hour. CellTiter-Glo? reagent (Promega, G7570) was prepared according to the manufacturer's instructions. 25 ?L of CellTiter-Glo? reagent was added to each well. Assay plates were sealed with foil and mixed for 5 minutes on an orbital shaker (500 rpm) to induce cell lysis. Plates were centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 1 minute. 10 minutes after CellTiter-Glo? reagent addition, an Envision plate reader (Perkin Elmer) was used to measure the luminescent signal of each assay plate. Collaborative Drug Discovery software was utilized for graphing data.

(2796) Table 42 below provides the results from this experiment. Unless otherwise specified, EC.sub.50 values are reported as the geometric mean of at least 2 assay runs on separate days. Each run represents the average of a technical replicate, where each compound was assayed twice in the same plate. A superscript t symbol indicates a value from the average of a technical replicate from a single assay run, where each compound was assayed twice in the same plate. Compounds in Table 42 are referred to by the corresponding Compound Number in Table 1, which is also referred to in the synthetic examples. When one or more of the numbered compounds are identified by stereochemistry (for example, (R)- or (S)-), the specific stereoisomer for which data is provided in Table 42 may be identified by the elution order of such compound as described in the synthetic examples. Absolute stereochemistry of such compounds may be identified by methods known in the art. For Table 42 below, n/a represents not available.

Example B5

(2799) APOL1 G0/G1/G2 viability assay for measurement of cytotoxicity reversal by compound in trypanosomes (APOL1 G0/G1/G2 trypanosome cell rescue assay). This example shows that the compounds of the present disclosure are able to reverse cytotoxicity in trypanosomes.

(2800) APOL1 protein expression and purification. The mature from of APOL1 proteins, residues 28-398, were expressed from a pET28a vector with an N-terminal His-tag and TEV cleavage site. Proteins were expressed in Escherichia coli BL21-CodonPlus (DE3)-RIPL cells. Liter cultures of terrific broth were grown at 37? C. until an OD.sub.600 of ?0.8 was reached and then induced with isopropyl-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG; final concentration of 500 ?M). Afterwards, cultures were grown for 3 hours at 37? C. For protein purification, cell pellets were resuspended in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris, pH 8.5, 5 mM EDTA, 0.5 mM DTT, 0.5 mM PMSF) supplemented with a cocktail of protease inhibitors. Cells were lysed by sonication, centrifuged, and the resulting pellet was collected. The homogenized pellet was resuspended in wash buffer (50 mM Tris, pH 8.5, 0.5 M NaCl, 5 mM EDTA, 0.5 mM DTT, 0.5 mM PMSF, protease inhibitor cocktail) and collected by centrifugation. Inclusion body dissolution was then conducted as previously reported (PNAS 112 (9) (2015) 2894-2899; www.pnas.org/cgi/doi/10.1073/pnas.1421953112; herein incorporated by reference in its entirety). The solubilized APOL1 protein was applied to a nickel column (HisTrap, GE Life Sciences) preequilibrated in buffer A (50 mM Tris, pH 8.5, 0.15 M NaCl, 1% zwittergent 3-14, protease inhibitor cocktail). The resin was washed with buffer B (50 mM Tris, pH 8.5, 0.15 M NaCl, 0.1% DDM) and TEV cleavage was conducted on column overnight. Afterwards, the column was washed with buffer B, followed by His-washing buffer (50 mM Tris, pH 8.5, 0.15 M NaCl, 0.1% DDM, 10 mM imidazole). The protein was then removed from the resin using His-elution buffer (50 mM Tris, pH 8.5, 0.15 M NaCl, 0.1% DDM, 250 mM imidazole). The sample was further purified by size exclusion chromatography using a Superdex 200 Increase column (GE Life Sciences) in 50 mM Tris, pH 8.5, 0.15 M NaCl, and 0.1% DDM buffer. All APOL1 proteins (G0, G1, and G2) were generated at Viva Biotech (Shanghai) Ltd.

(2801) Modified HMI-9 media preparation (https://tryps.rockefeller.edu/trypsru2_culture_media_preparation.html; herein incorporated by reference in its entirety). Trypanosomes were cultured in modified HMI-9 media consisting of IMDM (ThermoFisher, 12440053), 10% heat-inactivated FBS (Gibco, 10082-147), 10% Serum Plus (Sigma-Aldrich, 14008C), 1?HMI-9 supplement stock, and 1% hypoxanthine stock. The 10?HMI-9 supplement stock was made by dissolving 280 mg bathocuproine disulfonic acid (Sigma-Aldrich, 146625), 1820 mg cysteine (add after bathocuproine) (Sigma-Aldrich, 30089), 1100 mg pyruvic acid (Sigma-Aldrich, 107360), 100 mg uracil (Sigma-Aldrich, U0750), 100 mg cytosine (Sigma-Aldrich, C3506) and 140 ?L 2-mercaptoethanol (Sigma-Aldrich, M3148) in 1000 mL of water. The resulting solution was aliquoted and stored at ?20? C. The hypoxanthine stock was made by dissolving 4 g of NaOH into 1000 mL of water. Afterwards, 13.6 g hypoxanthine (Sigma-Aldrich, H9377) was added to this mixture. The resulting solution was aliquoted and stored at ?20? C.

(2802) Assay Setup. Trypanosoma brucei Lister 427 VSG221 (ATCC, PRA-382) cells were cultured in modified HMI-9 media. All experiments were performed in 384-well, white, solid bottom, tissue culture treated plates (Greiner, 781080). Assay ready plates were generated with duplicate 11-point compound dilution series that consisted of 2-fold stepwise dilutions (0.4% DMSO final). To each well, was added 20 ?L of 2 ?g/mL of APOL1 G0, G1, or G2 recombinant protein in modified HMI-9 media using a MultiDrop Combi (final APOL1 protein concentration=1 g/mL). Trypanosomes were counted using a hemacytometer and diluted in modified HMI-9 media to a concentration of 1.25?10.sup.4 cell/mL. 20 ?L of this trypanosome suspension was added to each well to give a total assay volume of 40 ?L and a final cell count of 250 trypanosomes/well. Plates were centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 1 minute and then incubated for 20 hours (humidified, 37? C. with 5% CO.sub.2). After incubation, the plates were equilibrated at room temperature for 1 hour. Next, 20 ?L of CellTiter-Glo? reagent (Promega, G7570) was added to each well. Plates were sealed and placed on an orbital shaker (500 rpm) for 5 minutes to induce cell lysis. The plates were centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 1 minute and then incubated at room temperature for an additional 10 minutes. Luminescence signal was measured on an Envision plate reader. Collaborative Drug Discovery software was utilized for graphing data.

(2803) Table 43 below provides the results from this experiment. Unless otherwise specified, EC.sub.50 values are reported as the geometric mean of at least 2 assay runs on separate days. Each run represents the average of a technical replicate, where each compound was assayed twice in the same plate. A superscript t symbol indicates a value from the average of a technical replicate from a single assay run, where each compound was assayed twice in the same plate. Compounds in Table 43 are referred to by the corresponding Compound Number in Table 1, which is also referred to in the synthetic examples. When one or more of the numbered compounds are identified by stereochemistry (for example, (R)- or (S)-), the specific stereoisomer for which data is provided in Table 43 may be identified by the elution order of such compound as described in the synthetic examples. Absolute stereochemistry of such compounds may be identified by methods known in the art. For Table 43 below, n/a represents not available.

(2804) Rescue EC.sub.50 values reported in Table 43 below represent the half-maximal effective concentration for reversal of cell death caused by overexpression of APOL1. This example demonstrates that compounds of the present disclosure are able to reduce cell death caused by overexpression of APOL1 at sub micromolar concentration.

Example B6

(2806) APOL1 G2 mouse renal model for measurement of albuminuria prevention by compound. This example shows that the compounds of the present disclosure are able to prevent albuminuria.

(2807) APOL1 transgenic (Tg) mice with a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) containing APOL1 G2 and its upstream and downstream genomic regions (Taconic, Model #13022) were bred to homozygosity. APOL1 G2 homozygous (G2 HOM) male mice, greater than 6 weeks of age were utilized in experiments. All studies were conducted under a protocol approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC).

(2808) Baseline urine samples were collected over a 24-hour period 7 days prior to the start of the experiment. Urine volume was determined by weight and stored at ?80? C. until use. Afterwards, baseline blood samples were collected via submandibular bleed into serum separate (SS) tubes (BD Microtainer). Serum samples were allowed to clot at room temperature for 30 minutes prior to centrifugation at 12000 rpm, 4? C. for 5 minutes. The concentration of APOL1 was determined in these samples using an APOL1 ELISA kit (Proteintech, KE00047) according to the manufacturer's instructions.

(2809) On the day of the experiment (0 hour), mice were individually identified, weighed, and assigned to one of the treatment groups. Treatment groups had similar average levels of serum APOL1. Mice were administered with two doses of compound test article and one dose of recombinant mouse interferon gamma (mIFN?) (MilliporeSigma, Catalog #IF005) per day for 2 days. Compound test article was administered via oral gavage at 10 mL/kg body weight dose volume at 0, approximately 10, 24, and 34 hours. mIFN? (1.5?10.sup.11 unit/kg body weight) was administered via intraperitoneal injection at 10 mL/kg body weigh dose volume at 0 and 24 hours. Urine collection was immediately initiated after the second dose of mIFN?. Specifically, mice were individually placed in a metabolic cage (Lab Products) for 24 hours where urine and feces were collected into separate tubes. During this time, mice had access to an enrichment toy, gel diet (Bio-serve), and drinking water (Innovive). At the end of the experiment, mice were anesthetized under isoflurane and blood was collected via cardiac puncture followed with a cervical dislocation to ensure death.

(2810) Urine samples were analyzed for urine albumin and urine creatinine levels. The concentration of urine albumin was determined using a mouse albumin immunoperoxidase assay kit (Immunology Consultants Laboratory, E-90AL) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Urine creatinine was analyzed using LC-MS methodology at WuXi App Tec (DMPK, New Jersey, USA).

(2811) Selected compounds from Table 1 described by formula (I-E) were tested in this APOL1 G2 mouse renal model for measurement of albuminuria. The results are shown in Table 44.
