    [0084] Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF?) Protein and Function

    [0085] Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF?) proteins are members of the TNF superfamily, comprising various transmembrane proteins with a homologous TNF domain forming trimers. The TNF superfamily comprises 19 family members, including, but not limited to tumor necrosis factor alpha (also known as tumor necrosis factor, or TNF), lymphotoxin alpha (TNF?), lymphotoxin beta (TNF?), OX40 ligand, CD40 ligand, Fas ligand, CD27 ligand, CD30 ligand, CD137 ligand, CD137 ligand, and TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand. TNF? proteins are cytokines and adipokines (cytokines secreted by adipose tissue).

    [0086] TNF? is a transmembrane protein, with soluble TNF? (sTNF?) released via protein cleavage. The sTNF? can propagate signaling by binding to two receptors, TNFR1 and TNFR2. TNF? is a regulator of immune responses for cell signaling and can mediate cell survival and cell death inducing signaling. There are two receptors for TNF signaling, TNFR1 and TNFR2. sTNF?-TNFR1 signaling promotes immune cell activation and drives acute and chronic inflammation. Membrane TNF?-TNFR2 signaling promotes inflammation resolution, immune cell regulatory functions and cell survival.

    [0087] The extracellular region of both TNFR1 and TNFR2 have four homologous cysteine-rich domains, but they have structurally different intracellular regions. TNFR1 has a protein binding region called a death domain which allows homo- and hetero-typic interactions with other death domain-containing proteins. In contrast, TNFR2 has a TNF Receptor Associated Factor (TRAF) that interacts with TRAF family of signaling adaptors. The distinct profiles and differences of the two TNF receptors influence the cellular activity and physiological roles. TNFR1 can activate NF-?B and MAPK signaling, and cell death, and is important to regulate inflammatory diseases. TNFR2 is highly regulated and restricted to specific cell types such as endothelial cells and T cells. TNFR1 primarily promotes tissue degeneration and inflammation, while TNFR2 typically mediates local homeostatic effects such as tissue regeneration and cell survival (D. Fresegna et al., Cells, 2020, 9, 2290).

    [0088] Binding of TNF? to TNFR1 can activate NF-?B for mediating transcription of various proteins involved in cell survival and proliferation, anti-apoptotic factors, and inflammatory response. Further, the MAPK pathway can also be activated by binding of TNF? to TNFR1, which is involved in cell differentiation and proliferation. When TNF? binds to TNFR1, it triggers receptor trimerization, leading to the assembly of a TNFR1-associated signaling complex. This complex recruits the receptor interacting protein 1 (RIP1) and TNF receptor associated death domain (TRADD) to the TNFR1 through the receptive death domains. TRADD then recruits adaptor proteins TRAF2 and TRAF5, which can engage the E3 ligases cellular inhibitors of apoptosis (c-IAP1, c-IAP2). c-IAP1/2 are important for TNFR1 complex signaling, which can eventually lead to the recruitment of the signaling kinase complexes of kinase IKK? and IKK?, which are inhibitors of kappa B kinase 1 and 2, and transforming growth factor beta-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) leading to activation of NF-?B and MAPK signaling. Activation of these signaling pathways can result in gene activation and expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and pro-survival proteins.

    [0089] TNF signaling is regulated by post-translational ubiquitination, which is essential for my biological processes. Post-translational modifications of TNFR1-associated signaling complexes can result in a change from inflammatory gene signaling to cell death. This switch is dependent upon the ubiquitination status of RIP1, which is formed as part of the TNFR1-associated signaling complex from TNF? binding.

    [0090] TNF has long been known to be a key regulator of the inflammatory response, and recently has been known to be involved in brain functioning (D. Fresegna et al., Cells, 2020, 9, 2290). As a regulator of the inflammatory response, TNF can regulate many aspects of T cell biology including, but not limited to proliferation, survival, priming, and apoptotic fate. TNF is also known to play a role in conclusion of lymphocyte response, by the ability to promote cell death in both CD4 and CD8P T cells, through TNFR1. Specific inflammatory conditions can also result in TNFR2 promoting or supporting T cell apoptosis.

    [0091] In normal adult brains, TNF is expressed at low levels, and it is believed that the expression could be influenced by presence or absence of cytokines that can cross the blood brain barrier. TNFRs in the brain are expressed by glia and neurons cells, and have regulatory functions, including, but not limited to homeostatic synaptic plasticity, astrocyte-mediated synaptic transmission, and neurogenesis. These functions are useful for regulating learning and memory functions amongst other roles.

    [0092] TNF is recognized to be physiological gliotransmitter for the communication between neurons and glial cells, which in turn affects synaptic regulation. Glial TNF is important for maintenance of normal surface expression of AMPA receptors, and for homeostatic synaptic scaling, which allows for adjustment of the strength of all synapses on a neuron.

    Prior Art Small Molecules Inhibitors

    [0093] Diseases treated with biologic TNF? inhibitors include, but are not limited to rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriatic arthritis, psoriasis, and ankylosing spondylitis. Patients with neuroinflammatory conditions and degenerative disease, including, but not limited to Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, treatment resistant depression, and tinnitus, may benefit from treatment with oral CNS sTNF? inhibitors by disrupting the sTNF? signaling and sparing the mTNF? signaling. Previous reports have also indicated targeting TNFR2 for treating Alzheimer's Disease (N. Orti-Casa? et al., Front Neurosci. 2019; 13: 49).

    [0094] Small molecules have been developed for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis as some patients have responded poorly to monotherapy of approved anti-TNF? drugs (J. D. Dietrich et al., J. Med. Chem. 2021, 64, 417-429). Anti-TNF? drugs have also been expanded for use in other chronic autoimmune diseases, including, but not limited to, Crohn's disease, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, ulcerative colitis, inflammatory bowel disease, ankylosing spondylitis, and juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. Small molecules have been developed as an alternative to anti-TNF? biologics since the long-term clinical response rate is generally around 60-70% for rheumatoid arthritis.

    [0095] Previous research has also indicated that TNF? inhibitors can be therapeutic for treatment of multiple sclerosis (D. Fresegna et al., Cells, 2020, 9, 2290). There has been evidence of the involvement of TNF in various pathological issues of multiple sclerosis, including immune dysregulation, demylination, synaptopathy, and neuroinflammation. TNF? inhibitors have the potential for treatment of multiple sclerosis, other potential chronic neurodegenerative diseases of the central nervous system.

    [0096] More than 50 million Americans struggle with tinnitus, which is the hearing of a sound with no external source. It has been shown that TNF? is necessary for noise-induced neuroinflammation and synaptic imbalance (W. Wang et al., PLoS Biol. 2019 Jun. 18; 17(6):e3000307; A. Shulman et al., Curr Top Behav Neurosci. 2021; 51:161-174). It is believed that certain inhibitors of TNF? have activities for treating tinnitus.

    [0097] Recent reports also indicate that TNF? inhibitors can be used alone or in combination for treatment with inflammatory bowel disease (S. F. Fowler Braga and K. J. Clark, US Pharm. 2021; 46(5):34-37). TNF? is a mediator of the abnormal immune response of inflammatory bowel disease, which leads to disruption of the intestinal mucosa and epithelial wall barrier. The anti-TNF agents can block TNF-mediated activation of the proinflammatory pathways to result in decreased immune-mediated inflammation.

    [0098] Small molecule sTNF? inhibitors are active in pharmacology models of sTNF?/TNFR1 signaling in addition to demonstrating efficacy in a model of collagen antibody induced arthritis. There is currently limited data in the public domain for small molecule sTNF? inhibitors. Some TNF? inhibitors include, but are not limited to XPro1595, Etanercept, Infliximab, Adalimumab, Certolizumab pegol, Golimumamb, and other inhibitors described in TNF-?: The Shape of Small Molecules to Come? (A. D?mling and X. Li, Drug Discov Today 2022 January; 27(1):3-7) and Small Molecules that Inhibit TNF Signalling by Stabilising an Asymmetric Form of the Trimer (J. O'Connell et al., Nature Communications 10, 5795 (2019)). Additional small molecule inhibitors of TNF? include, but are not limited to the inhibitors described in Biologic-like In Vivo Efficacy with Small Molecule Inhibitors of TNF? Identified Using Scaffold Hopping and Structure-Based Drug Design Approaches (H-Y Xiao et al., J. Med. Chem. 2020, 15050-15071), Development of Orally Efficacious Allosteric Inhibitors of TNF? via Fragment-Based Drug Design (J. D. Dietrich et al., J. Med. Chem. 2021, 64, 417-429), and Small-Molecule Inhibition of TNF-? (M. M. He et al., Science, 310 (2015), 1022-1025).

    [0099] Small molecule sTNF? inhibitors have potential as a valuable therapy for patients currently treated with biologic TNF? inhibitors which affect mTNF? with the ability to fine tune oral dosing requirements and avoid anti-drug antibody responses, thereby improving short and long responses (A. D?mling and X. Li, Drug Discov Today 2022 January; 27(1):3-7).

    [0968] II. Biological Evaluation

    [0969] TNF? Induced HEK Blue Cellular Assay

    [0970] Test articles were diluted in DMSO and serially diluted into 384 well assay plate (Corning 3765), at final concentrations ranging from 30 mM to 0.5 nM. HEK Blue? TNF? reporter cells were added at a final density of 10,000 cell per well in assay media [DMEM (Gibco, cat #21063-029), 10% fetal bovine serum (ExcelBio, cat #FND500), 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin (Solarbio, cat #P1400-100]. TNF? (R&D 210-TA-020/CF) was then added to the assay plate at a final concentration of 100 ?g/ml. This plate was then incubated for 24 hrs at 37? C. and 5% CO.sub.2. Secreted alkaline phosphatase expression was then measured using QUANTI-Blue? (Invivogen), according to manufacturer instructions and read on an Envision microplate reader at 620 nm.

    [0971] Inhibition data for test compound over a range of concentration was plotted as percentage inhibition of the test compound (100%=maximum inhibition). IC.sub.50 values were determined after correcting for background [(sample read-mean of low control)/(mean of high control-mean of low control)] where by the low control is DMSO without stimulation and high control is DMSO with stimulation. The IC.sub.50 is defined as the concentration of test compound which produces 50% inhibition and was quantified using the 4 parameter logistic equation to fit the data.

    [0972] Representative data for exemplary compounds is presented in Table 3.
