<meta name="description" content="Cruzain is a key cysteine protease that is essential for the survival and replication of Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi), a protozoan parasite that is the causative agent of Chagas disease. Inhibition of cruzain has been validated as a viable strategy for the development of small molecule therapeutics for Chagas disease. To date, reports of small molecule cruzain inhibitors have been primarily of those which contain an electrophilic warhead and act by irreversible, covalent modification of the enzyme. As such, we sought to discover novel reversible, non-covalent inhibitors of cruzain using a combination of docking, co-crystallization and high-throughput screening. In this report, we describe the discovery of ML217, which exhibits trypanocidal activity against the T. Cruzi parasite, while having minimal toxicity to the host cell. Moreover, ML217 represents the first reversible non-covalent inhibitor of cruzain to demonstrate efficacy in a Chagas disease mouse model.">

Introduction</h2><p>At the outset of this project we had three goals in mind. The first goal was to discover and
develop novel cruzain inhibitors with different mechanisms of action to ultimately aid in the
development of antitrypanosomal agents. Second, using the cruzain enzymatic assay as a model screening system of an enzyme carrying a reactive cysteine catalytic residue, we aimed to profile the MLSMR collection with respect to several sources of false-positive or promiscuous types of inhibition: compound autofluorescence<sup><a class="bibr" href="#ml217.r1" rid="ml217.r1">1</a></sup>, colloidal aggregation, and reactive compounds. The third goal was to improve the chances for discovering novel competitive cruzain inhibitors by using two techniques, virtual screen and HTS, by performing a virtual screen of the collection and characterizing the top docking hits using the same cruzain enzymatic assay. The first goal of finding novel cruzain inhibitors has clearly been met with the declaration of two probes, <a href="/pcsubstance/?term=ML091[synonym]" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=entrez&amp;targetcat=term&amp;targettype=pubchem">ML091</a> and <a href="/pcsubstance/?term=ML092[synonym]" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=entrez&amp;targetcat=term&amp;targettype=pubchem">ML092</a><sup><a class="bibr" href="#ml217.r2" rid="ml217.r2">2</a></sup>, which both have different modes of inhibition, non-covalent and covalent inhibition, respectively. Moreover, we describe herein the development of a third structurally distinct chemotype which offers advantages over our two previously described probes (<i>vide infra</i>).</p><p>The second goal for the project has also been addressed through the comprehensive analyses of
aggregation, autofluorescence, and reactivity artifacts for 197,861 compounds that are a part of the MLSMR.<sup><a class="bibr" href="#ml217.r3" rid="ml217.r3">3</a></sup> In this study, several key observations were noted, the first being that false positives resulting from aggregation far-outnumbered those resulting from either autofluorescent and/or reactive mechanisms. Second, despite this assay being potentially sensitive to reactive functionality as a result of a nucleophilic active-site cysteine, very few compounds possessing suspected reactive functionalities showed up as hits. Finally, we found that aggregation appears to be context dependent. When studying aggregators across assay platforms, enzymes, and detection formats, we found little correlation between detergent-sensitive inhibition, suggesting that one cannot simply remove these compounds from the library based on a singular result. This also supports the notion that reducing the artifacts resulting from aggregation can be achieved by the inclusion of detergent in the assay medium whenever possible.</p><p>Our final outlined goal was to prospectively and retrospectively compare the outcome of virtual
and high-throughput screens of the same compound collection.<sup><a class="bibr" href="#ml217.r4" rid="ml217.r4">4</a></sup> This approach allowed us to prioritize molecules that were both predicted by docking and that were active in the HTS, and ultimately led to the selection of the novel cruzain inhibitor described in this report. Through this comparative analysis, several non-covalent competitive inhibitors were discovered, and while co-crystallization efforts results in crystals for several of these inhibitors, only compound <b>1</b> had desirable electron density (<i>vide infra</i>). Interestingly, this case is a good example of both methods having complementary strengths and weaknesses, as this compound had a docking rank of 7,560, and likely would not have been pursued in the absence of HTS data. Having confirmed the lack of covalent attachment through the X-ray structure, we were eager to pursue this compound in additional studies.</p><div id="ml217.s4"><h3>Prior Art</h3><div id="ml217.fu2" class="figure"><div class="graphic"><img src="/books/NBK133417/bin/ml217fu2.jpg" alt="Image ml217fu2" /></div></div><p>Cruzain inhibitors <b>2</b><sup><a class="bibr" href="#ml217.r5a" rid="ml217.r5a">5</a></sup>,<b>3</b><sup><a class="bibr" href="#ml217.r6" rid="ml217.r6">6</a></sup> and our recently reported ML probe (<b><a href="/pcsubstance/?term=ML092[synonym]" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=entrez&amp;targetcat=term&amp;targettype=pubchem">ML092</a></b>), all utilize an electrophilic warhead moiety which is attacked by the active-site cysteine moiety to form a colavent interaction. Both the vinyl sulfone (compound <b>2</b>) and the tetrafluorophenoxymethyl ketone (compound <b>3</b>) act by irreversible inhibition, while the purine nitrile (<b><a href="/pcsubstance/?term=ML092[synonym]" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=entrez&amp;targetcat=term&amp;targettype=pubchem">ML092</a></b>) can be classified as a reversible, covalent inhibitor of cruzain.

Results</h2><div id="ml217.s13"><h3>3.1. Summary of Screening Results</h3><p>To measure the enzymatic activity of cruzain, we utilized its model fluorogenic substrate Z-Phe-Arg-AMC, which is converted to a highly fluorescent 7-amino-4-methylcoumarin reporter upon cruzain-catalyzed hydrolysis. Assay optimization was performed directly in 1,536-well format at a final reaction volume of 4 &#x003bc;L. For the detergent-present screen, Triton X-100 was used at 0.01%, and the cruzain concentration selected for screening was 1.5 nM. During the optimization of the detergent-free assay, low stability and high variability in the specific activity of cruzain was noted, likely due to protein denaturation promoted by the large surface-to-volume ratio in the 1,536-well polystyrene assay plates. In order to stabilize the enzyme&#x02019;s performance, its final concentration was raised to 3 nM and a trace of Triton X-100 (final concentration of 0.00005%) was included in the detergent-free assay; we note that a similar adjustment step was needed for the AmpC beta-lactamase aggregation screen described earlier. At the conditions selected &#x02013; 1.5 nM or 3 nM final cruzain concentration and 2 &#x003bc;M final substrate concentration (the latter was chosen to match previously reported conditions and being close to the K<sub>m</sub> value for this substrate) &#x02013; the signal evolution was robust, and low substrate conversion was monitored over the course of 1 minute, making the assay highly sensitive to cruzain inhibitors. All assay components were tested and found stable for at least 24 hours when formulated as stock solutions at their working concentrations, in both the detergent-present and the detergent-free buffers (data not shown). Such demonstrated stability permitted the implementation of an unattended overnight screening operation.</p><p>The screens of the 197,864-compound collection were completed within a period of two separate workweeks. During the first week, approximately 60% of the 1,107 1,536-well plates library were screened in the detergent-free assay first; this was immediately followed by a screen of the same set of library plates in the detergent-present assay. The remaining 40% of the library was screened in the same manner during the second week. The screening of each compound against the two assays in close succession minimized the possibility for sample-age related differences in results. Overall, two sets of 1,107 1,536-well assay plates were run under the detergent-free and detergent-present conditions, respectively, leading to the generation of 197,864 concentration responses consisting of at least seven points per compound per assay, and corresponding to a total of approximately 1.5 million samples tested per detergent condition.</p><p>The Z&#x02032; screening factors associated with each plate and each screening condition remained
high and stable throughout the two screens (<a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK133417/figure/ml217.f2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figml217f2" rid-ob="figobml217f2">Figure 2</a>):
the average Z&#x02032; for the detergent-free screen was 0.78, while the corresponding average for the detergent-present screen was 0.93. Of the two screens comprising a total of 2,214 plates, only a group of six plates failed and was re-screened immediately using the same batches of enzyme and substrate. As a further quality control measure, we included a concentration response of the known vinyl sulfone cruzain inhibitor K1177721 (<b>2</b>), added as a 16-point dilution series in duplicate between 5.7 &#x003bc;M and 0.175 nM into the second column of every assay plate.

Also, as noted previously, we observed a large number (~12,000) of apparent activators in the detergent-free screen. Of these samples, almost all turned completely inactive upon inclusion of detergent. Over 85% of the activators were associated with partial or single-point top concentration responses, indicating that the condition-dependent activation was being observed only at the highest compound concentrations where complicating phenomena such as transient precipitation, light scatter, and compound aggregate-assisted enzyme stabilization have been known to lead to false positive effects.

As shown in the co-crystal structure of <i>N</i>-(2-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)ethyl)-2-(2-bromophenoxy)acetamide (<b>1</b>), the molecule adopts a similar orientation as the purine nitrile probe, where the 2-bromo-phenol occupies the S2 pocket of the enzyme, a predominately hydrophobic pocket, and the benzimidazole core is exposed to solvent (<a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK133417/figure/ml217.f7/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figml217f7" rid-ob="figobml217f7">Figure 7</a>). A key difference is the seemingly critical interactions involving the amide moiety (NH-Asp161 and C=O to Gly66). The importance of this interaction is something we planned to investigate early on in the SAR studies. However, before doing so, we did some exploratory SAR to study variations of the amide moiety and substitution of the benzimidazole nitrogen. Interestingly, replacing the 2-bromophenoxy-acetamide moiety with a simple cyclohexane ring (<b>5</b>) retained activity (6.7 &#x003bc;M for <b>1</b> and 6.4 &#x003bc;M for <b>5</b>). Given that this compound should be more stable and is easier to synthesize, we decided to use this group for initial investigations of substitution on benzimidazole nitrogen. These studies revealed that a two carbon linker with a terminal phenoxy group improved potency (e.g. analog <b>18</b>, IC<sub>50</sub> = 1.8 &#x003bc;M); this provided the opportunity for us to further explore the SAR of this position in addition to preparing other amide analogs. Before utilizing parallel library synthesis to explore the SAR of the amide and phenoxy moiety, we aimed to investigate the effect of varying the length of the C-2 side chain and modifications to the amide (<a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK133417/table/ml217.t1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figml217t1" rid-ob="figobml217t1">Table 1</a>). Changing the C-2 side chain length from n = 2 to n = 3 (analog <b>4</b>) resulted in complete loss of activity as did shortening the side chain (n = 1, data not shown). Methylation of the amide nitrogen (compound <b>6</b>) and removal of the amide carbonyl (compound <b>7</b>) both resulted in loss of activity, which supports the binding mode depicted in the co-crystal structure. Interestingly, the sulfonamide analog <b>8</b> maintained some activity (16 &#x003bc;M), whereas the urea derivative <b>9</b> lost all activity.</p><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col fig" id="figml217f6" co-legend-rid="figlgndml217f6"><a href="/books/NBK133417/figure/ml217.f6/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Figure 6" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figml217f6" rid-ob="figobml217f6"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK133417/bin/ml217f6.gif" src-large="/books/NBK133417/bin/ml217f6.jpg" alt="Figure 6.

Given our previously reported ability to modulate potency via optimization of the group occupying the S2 region of the enzyme, we were hopeful that analogs of the amide group would provide the desired improvements in potency. Analogs <b>12&#x02013;15</b> looked at differing ring sizes (cyclopentane <b>12</b>, cycloheptane <b>13</b>, cyclopropane <b>14</b> and cyclohexane <b>15</b>) and while <b>12</b>, <b>13</b> and <b>15</b> all had comparable potencies; the smaller cyclopropane ring analog <b>14</b> was essentially inactive. This result can be rationalized by the need for larger hydrophobic groups to fully occupy this portion of the binding site. Next we investigated modifications to the terminal phenoxy group. As anticipated, changes to this portion of the molecule were well tolerated (compounds <b>16&#x02013;21, 33&#x02013;35</b>). Analogs <b>19</b> and <b>20</b> (R<sub>2</sub> = 3-NH<sub>2</sub> and 2-NH<sub>2</sub>; IC<sub>50</sub> = 3.2 and 4.6 &#x003bc;M respectively) had comparable potency to the lead compound and should have improved solubility. We then turned our attention to further modification of the amide moiety, holding the <i>p</i>-tolyl-oxyethyl group constant for direct comparison to previous analogs. Replacement of the cyclohexane ring with a phenyl group resulted in a ~6-fold loss in potency. Incorporation of halogens, particularly fluorine, into this portion of the molecule on our purine scaffold provided great improvements in potency. However, in this case, though potency was improved the increased affinity was much less pronounced. Potency tended to decrease with decreasing size of the substituent (e.g. analog <b>23</b> (R<sub>1</sub> = 2-fluorophenyl, IC<sub>50</sub> = 6.5 &#x003bc;M), <b>27</b> (R<sub>1</sub> = 2-bromophenyl, IC<sub>50</sub> = 12.9 &#x003bc;M), <b>38</b> (R<sub>1</sub> = 2-CF<sub>3</sub>-phenyl, IC<sub>50</sub> = 16 &#x003bc;M), <b>24</b> (R<sub>1</sub> = 3-fluorophenyl, IC<sub>50</sub> = 6.5 &#x003bc;M) and <b>28</b> (R<sub>1</sub> = 3-chlorophenyl, IC<sub>50</sub> = 9.1 &#x003bc;M). Moreover, electron-withdrawing groups appear to be favored over electron-donating groups, exemplified by analogs <b>31</b> and <b>32</b> (2-methylphenyl and 4-methylphenyl) which are both less potent than the corresponding analogs containing electron-withdrawing substituents in these positions. Finally, we looked to explore changes to C-2 side chain, including varying the length (compound <b>43</b>), replacing the oxygen with carbon (analog <b>11</b>), and adding unsaturation (compound <b>44</b>). These investigations revealed that the oxygen was not required for activity, varying the length of this side-chain had minimal effect, and more rigid, unsaturated side chains were also tolerated.</p><p>Generally, the SAR around this scaffold appeared relatively flat, with the essential functional group being the amide moiety, as any changes to this resulted in a drastic loss of activity. In contrast to our reversible, covalent inhibitors that had IC<sub>50</sub> values in the low nM to pM range, these compounds hovered around 1 &#x003bc;M. These efforts, combined with those appearing in the literature, seem to indicate that for low to mid-nM inhibition of cruzain, covalent modification of the enzyme is strongly preferred.</p><div id="ml217.s20"><h3>T. Cruzi Activity</h3><p>Despite the moderate <i>in vitro</i> potency of these compounds against cruzain, we
were quite encouraged by experiments performed in the lab of Professor Ana Rodriquez, where they
investigated activity against the <i>T. Cruzi</i> parasite and activity against the host
cells (cytotoxicity) as shown in <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK133417/figure/ml217.f4/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figml217f4" rid-ob="figobml217f4">Figure 4</a>. At the time of these studies, only a few reasonably potent benzimidazole analogs had been synthesized (e.g. compounds <b>15</b> and <b>16</b>), so these were tested along with our previously reported purine and triazine nitrile covalent inhibitors. Despite being much less potent in the <i>in vitro</i> assay, these non-covalent inhibitors displayed encouraging IC<sub>50</sub> values against the <i>T. Cruzi</i> parasite and were not very toxic against the host cell as shown in <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK133417/figure/ml217.f4/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figml217f4" rid-ob="figobml217f4">Figure 4</a> (at levels over 10-fold the EC<sub>50</sub> value against the parasite). Having an acceptable EC<sub>50</sub>/TC<sub>50</sub> ratio prompted us to investigate these compounds in the T. Cruzi <i>in vivo</i> mouse model. This <i>in vivo</i> model utilizes bioluminescent <i>T. Cruzi</i>, in which the firefly luciferase enzyme is stably expressed within the parasite.<sup><a class="bibr" href="#ml217.r12" rid="ml217.r12">12</a></sup> This method allows for rapid analysis of potential drugs for the treatment of Chagas disease (<a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK133417/figure/ml217.f5/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figml217f5" rid-ob="figobml217f5">Figure 5A</a>). Our compounds were dosed at 10 mg/kg, once/day (SID) and monitored compared to a control. Treatment began 7 days post infection and the parasite burden was analyzed at day 12 (data not shown) and day 19 (<a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK133417/figure/ml217.f5/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figml217f5" rid-ob="figobml217f5">Figure 5B</a>). We found a significant reduction of parasite burden at day 19, compared to the control and after 5 days treatment. These results are significant as other reported <i>in vivo T. Cruzi</i> parasite killing assays were conducted with higher doses (20&#x02013;100 mg/kg) and more frequent treatment regiments (BID). These results suggest that over a longer treatment time, and using comparable dosing, these compounds would have an even more pronounced effect.</p></div><div id="ml217.s21"><h3>Solubility improvement</h3><div id="ml217.fu4" class="figure"><div class="graphic"><img src="/books/NBK133417/bin/ml217fu6.jpg" alt="Image ml217fu6" /></div></div><p>Our current probe molecule shows activity against cruzain, <i>T. Cruzi</i> parasite killing, is non-toxic to the host cell (NIH/3T3 cells), and shows significant reduction of parasite burden in Chagas disease mouse models. However, this compound has only limited aqueous solubility (5 &#x003bc;M), and thus could have poor absorption and oral bioavailability. As such, we are encouraged by the improved solubility of compounds <b>19</b> and <b>20,</b> which have much improved solubility in PBS buffer (pH 7.4) of &#x0003e;150 &#x003bc;M while maintaining comparable potency of the probe compound (<b>15</b>). These compounds have not yet been tested in the <i>T. Cruzi</i> assay or the Chagas disease mouse model, but the preliminary results suggest that the solubility liability has already been addressed.</p></div><div id="ml217.s22"><h3>4.1. Comparison to Existing Art and How the New Probe is an Improvement</h3><p>While there are numerous small molecules reported to have efficacy against the <i>T. Cruzi</i> parasite, treatment is still limited to nitroaromatic compounds, benznidazole and nifurtimox. Both of these compounds are not only toxic, but are also ineffective against the frequently occurring chronic stage of Chagas disease. The only known cruzain inhibitors that have progressed into animal models for Chagas infection include the vinyl sulfone <b>2</b> (and related analogs) and a tetrafluorophenoxymethyl ketone containing inhibitor <b>3</b>, both of which are irreversible covalent modifiers of cruzain. Compound <b>2</b> has shown to be effective in curing <i>T. Cruzi</i> infection in both cell and animal models, but is plagued by low oral bioavailabilty and a short half-life. Both of these compounds have thus far proven save in animal models, but the potential for toxicity associated with irreversible modification exists. As such, this report represents to the best of our knowledge the first example of a <i>reversible, non-covalent inhibitor of cruzain</i> showing substantial efficacy in a Chagas disease mouse model. Considering our compounds were dosed at 10 mg/kg SID compared to 20 mg/kg BID (both via IP) for compound <b>2</b>, the potential exists for even greater reduction in parasite burden for our compounds if we use a comparable dosing regimen. Additionally, these compounds had over 10-fold selectivity.</p></div><div id="ml217.s23"><h3>4.2. Mechanism of Action Studies</h3><p>See earlier discussion section on co-crystallization studies of compound related to the probe molecule.</p></div><div id="ml217.s24"><h3>4.3. Planned Future Studies</h3><p>Currently, Ana Rodriguez is testing approximately 80 new benzimidazole analogs in the high-throughput <i>T. Cruzi</i> assay and host cell toxicity studies, most of which are highlighted in this report. The top candidates which emerged as having optimal IC<sub>50</sub>/TC<sub>50</sub> ratios and ADME properties will be progressed to her <i>in vivo</i> model for Chagas disease (as described above). We will also investigate whether these compounds are trypanostatic (inhibit replication within the host cell) or trypanocidal (induce lysis of intracellular amastigotes). Trypanostatic compounds may be more effective at treating Chagas during the acute phase of the disease, whereas typanocidal compounds may be required for activity against chronic forms of the disease. To investigate whether the parasites have been completed eliminated, the mice will be immuno-suppressed, and we will wait to see if the parasites come back. One of the final studies would be to see if these compounds act against the Chronic stage of the disease. This is important because the majority of cases are found in this stage; however, this requires long protocols (3 month wait after infection) followed by treatment. As such, this study will be limited only to compound(s), which have been analyzed in the other studies. Importantly, none of the compounds used today are effective towards this stage of the disease.</p><p>Concurrently, we will be investigating the <i>in vitro</i> ADME properties of several of the top actives to determine which compounds are best suited for <i>in vivo</i> PK. We have already discovered compounds that improved solubility compared to our probe molecule, while maintaining potency as shown above. Given the apparent metabolic liability of this probe compound, we plan to investigate METID studies to help establish the metabolic soft-spots. Preliminary analysis seems to indicate that the cyclohexane is the primary spot for metabolism. A compound with improved ADME properties would presumably translate to improved <i>in vivo</i> efficacy. We plan to submit an extended characterization proposal to provide funds for the studies mentioned above.</p></div></div><div id="ml217.s25"><h2 id="_ml217_s25_">5.
