Description

KIT INHIBITOR COMPOUNDS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/540,604, filed on September 26, 2023, the entire content of which is incorporated by reference herein. BACKGROUND [0002] The following discussion is provided to aid the reader in understanding the disclosure and is not admitted to describe or constitute prior art thereto. [0003] Mast cells contain granules containing proinflammatory and immunomodulatory mediators. Upon activation, degranulation occurs, releasing these proinflammatory and immunomodulatory mediators into the surrounding tissues, generally in response to a perceived pathogen (e.g., parasitic, bacterial and viral infections, allergens, toxins, etc.). The activation of mast cells serves to induce an immune response to protect the body from pathogens, and to aid in wound healing, and tissue repair. However, misfunctioning mast cells underlie the etiology of many allergic and chronic inflammatory diseases and are implicated in a broad spectrum of conditions. [0004] The activation of receptor tyrosine kinase KIT on mast cells by its ligand, Stem Cell Factor (SCF), is required for mast cell differentiation, maturation, and survival. For certain diseases, mast cell activation may play a central role in the onset and progression of the disease. Accordingly, inhibition of KIT may lead to mast cell depletion, and provide a promising therapeutic approach for mast cell-driven diseases. Thus, there is a need to develop inhibitors of KIT. SUMMARY [0005] In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to compounds that are inhibitors of the receptor tyrosine kinase KIT. The compounds are represented by Formula III and associated sub- formulas described herein:
Figure imgf000003_0001
. [0006] In another aspect, this disclosure is directed to methods of inhibiting KIT in a subject comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a compound of Formula III or an associated sub-formula described herein. [0007] In another aspect, this disclosure is directed to methods of reducing the activity and/or quantity of systemic mast cells in a subject comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a compound of Formula III or an associated sub-formula described herein. [0008] In yet another aspect, this disclosure provides methods for treating a disease, disorder, or condition mediated at least in part by KIT in a subject, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula III or an associated sub-formula described herein. Diseases, disorders, and conditions mediated by KIT include e.g., an allergic disease, disorder, or condition; an inflammatory disease, disorder, or condition; a neuroinflammatory disease, disorder, or condition; a neurological disease, disorder, or condition; an immune related disease, disorder, or condition; an autoimmune related disease, disorder, or condition; a dermatological disease, disorder, or condition; a respiratory disease, disorder, or condition; a metabolic disease, disorder, or condition; a cardiovascular disease, disorder, or condition; a fibrotic disease, disorder, or condition; or cancer. [0009] Certain aspects of the present disclosure further comprise the administration of one or more additional therapeutic agents as set forth herein below. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DISCLOSURE [0010] Before the present disclosure is further described, it is to be understood that the disclosure is not limited to the particular embodiments set forth herein, and it is also to be understood that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and is not intended to be limiting. Definitions [0011] Unless otherwise defined, all terms of art, notations and other scientific terms or terminology used herein are intended to have the meanings commonly understood by those of skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains. [0012] The term “about” as used herein has its original meaning of approximately and is to provide literal support for the exact number that it precedes, as well as a number that is near to or approximately the number that the term precedes. In determining whether a number is near to or approximately a specifically recited number, the near or approximating unrecited number can be a number which, in the context in which it is presented, provides the substantial equivalent of the specifically recited number. For example, if the degree of approximation is not otherwise clear from the context, “about” means either within plus or minus 10% of the provided value, or rounded to the nearest significant figure, in all cases inclusive of the provided value. Where ranges are provided, they are inclusive of the boundary values. [0013] The term "alkyl", by itself or as part of another substituent, means, unless otherwise stated, a saturated hydrocarbon radical, having, in some embodiments, one to eight (e.g., C1-C8- alkyl), or one to six (e.g., C1-C6-alkyl), or one to four carbon atoms (e.g., C1-C4-alkyl), or one to three carbon atoms (e.g., C1-C3-alkyl), respectively. The term “alkyl” encompasses straight and branched-chain hydrocarbon groups. Examples of alkyl groups include, but are not limited to, methyl (Me, -CH3), ethyl (Et, -CH2CH3), n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, t-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, isopentyl, tert-pentyl, n-pentyl, isohexyl, n-hexyl, n-heptyl, 4-isopropylheptane, n-octyl, and the like. In some embodiments, the alkyl groups are C1-C4 alkyl groups (e.g., methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, or t-butyl). [0014] The term “alkylene” refers to a straight or branched, saturated, hydrocarbon radical having, in some embodiments, one to six carbon atoms (e.g., C1-C6-alkylene), or one to four carbon atoms (e.g., C1-C4-alkylene), or one to three carbon atoms (e.g., C1-C3-alkylene) and linking at least two other groups, i.e., a divalent hydrocarbon radical. When two moieties are linked to the alkylene they can be linked to the same carbon atom (i.e., geminal), or different carbon atoms of the alkylene group. For instance, a straight chain alkylene can be the bivalent radical of -(CH2)n- , where n is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 (i.e., a C1-C6-alkylene). Representative alkylene groups include, but are not limited to, methylene, ethylene, propylene, isopropylene, butylene, isobutylene, secbutylene, pentylene, hexylene and the like. In some embodiments, the alkylene groups are C1- 3 alkylene groups (e.g., methylene, ethylene, or propylene). [0015] The term "cycloalkyl" refers to a monocyclic, bicyclic or polycyclic hydrocarbon ring system having, in some embodiments, 3 to 14 carbon atoms (e.g., C3-C14-cycloalkyl), or 3 to 10 carbon atoms (e.g., C3-C10-cycloalkyl), or 3 to 8 carbon atoms (e.g., C3-C8-cycloalkyl), or 3 to 6 carbon atoms (e.g., C3-C6-cycloalkyl) or 5 to 6 carbon atoms (e.g., C5-C6-cycloalkyl). Cycloalkyl groups can be saturated or characterized by one or more points of unsaturation (i.e., carbon-carbon double and/or triple bonds), provided that the points of unsaturation do not result in an aromatic system. Examples of monocyclic cycloalkyl groups include, but are not limited to, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cyclohexenyl, cyclohexynyl, cycloheptyl, cycloheptenyl, cycloheptadienyl, cyclooctyl, cyclooctenyl, cyclooctadienyl and the like. The rings of bicyclic and polycyclic cycloalkyl groups can be fused, bridged, or spirocyclic. Non-limiting examples of bicyclic, spirocyclic and polycyclic hydrocarbon groups include bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane, bicyclo[2.1.1]hexane, bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane, bicyclo[2.2.2]octane, adamantyl, spiro[5.5]undecane, spiro[2.2]pentane, spiro[2.2]pentadiene, spiro[2.5]octane, spiro[2.2]pentadiene, and the like. In some embodiments, the cycloalkyl groups of the present disclosure are monocyclic C3-C6-cycloalkyl moieties (e.g., cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, or cyclohexyl). [0016] As used herein, a wavy line, " ", that intersects a single, double or triple bond in any chemical structure depicted herein, represents that the point of attachment of the single, double, or triple bond to the remainder of the molecule is through either one of the atoms that make up the single, double or triple bond. Additionally, a bond extending from a substituent to the center of a ring (e.g., a phenyl ring or heteroaryl ring) is meant to indicate attachment of that substituent to the ring at any of the available ring vertices, i.e., such that attachment of the substituent to the ring results in a chemically stable arrangement. [0017] The terms "halogen," or “halo” are used interchangeably and refer to, unless otherwise stated, a fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine atom. Additionally, terms such as "haloalkyl," refer to alkyl groups, as defined herein, that are substituted with one or more halogen(s) (e.g., 1-3 halogen(s)). For example, the term "C1-C6 haloalkyl" is meant to include trifluoromethyl, difluoromethyl, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl, 4-chlorobutyl, 3-bromopropyl, and the like. [0018] The term “hydroxyalkyl” refers to an alkyl group, as defined herein, that is substituted with one or more hydroxyl groups (e.g., 1-3 hydroxyl groups). Exemplary hydroxyalkyl groups include methanol, ethanol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,2-hexanediol, glycerol, and the like. [0019] The term “cyanoalkyl” refers to an alkyl group, as defined herein, that is substituted with one cyano group. Exemplary cyanoalkyl groups include cyanomethyl, cyanoethyl, cyanopropyl, and the like.

[0023] As referred to herein, "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" is meant to include salts of the compounds according to this disclosure that are prepared with suitably nontoxic acids or bases, depending on the particular substituents found on the compounds described herein. When compounds of the present disclosure contain suitably acidic functionalities, base addition salts can be obtained by contacting the neutral form of such compounds with a sufficient amount of the desired base, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of salts derived from pharmaceutically-acceptable inorganic bases include aluminum, ammonium, calcium, copper, ferric, ferrous, lithium, magnesium, manganic, manganous, potassium, sodium, zinc and the like. Salts derived from pharmaceutically-acceptable organic bases include salts of primary, secondary and tertiary amines, including substituted amines, cyclic amines, naturally-occurring amines and the like, such as arginine, betaine, caffeine, choline, N,N’-dibenzylethylenediamine, diethylamine, 2-diethylaminoethanol, 2-dimethylaminoethanol, ethanolamine, ethylenediamine, N- ethylmorpholine, N-ethylpiperidine, glucamine, glucosamine, histidine, hydrabamine, isopropylamine, lysine, methylglucamine, morpholine, piperazine, piperidine, polyamine resins, procaine, purines, theobromine, triethylamine, trimethylamine, tripropylamine, tromethamine and the like. When compounds of the present disclosure contain suitably basic functionalities, acid addition salts can be obtained by contacting the neutral form of such compounds with a sufficient amount of the desired acid, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include those derived from inorganic acids like hydrochloric, hydrobromic, nitric, carbonic, monohydrogencarbonic, phosphoric, monohydrogenphosphoric, dihydrogenphosphoric, sulfuric, monohydrogensulfuric, hydriodic, or phosphorous acids and the like, as well as the salts derived from suitably nontoxic organic acids like acetic, propionic, isobutyric, malonic, benzoic, succinic, suberic, fumaric, mandelic, phthalic, benzenesulfonic, p- tolylsulfonic, citric, tartaric, methanesulfonic, and the like. Also included are salts of amino acids such as arginate and the like, and salts of organic acids like glucuronic or galacturonic acids and the like (see, for example, Berge, S.M., et al, “Pharmaceutical Salts”, Journal of Pharmaceutical Science, 1977, 66, 1-19). Certain specific compounds of the present disclosure contain both basic and acidic functionalities that allow the compounds to be converted into either base or acid addition salts. [0024] The neutral forms of the compounds may be regenerated by contacting the salt with a base or acid and isolating the parent compound in the conventional manner. The parent form of the compound differs from the various salt forms in certain physical properties, such as solubility in polar solvents, but otherwise the salts are equivalent to the parent form of the compound for the purposes of the present disclosure. [0025] This disclosure also contemplates isomers of the compounds described herein (e.g., stereoisomers and/or atropisomers). For example, certain compounds of the present disclosure possess asymmetric carbon atoms (chiral centers), or hindered rotation about a single bond; the racemates, diastereomers, and enantiomers, and atropisomers (e.g., Ra, Sa, P and M isomers) of which are all intended to be encompassed within the scope of the present disclosure. Stereoisomeric forms may be defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (R) or (S), depicted uses dashes and/or wedges, and/or in terms of the direction the stereoisomer rotates plane- polarized light (e.g., dextrorotary ((+) or (d)), or levorotary ((-) or (l))). When a stereochemical depiction (e.g., using dashes, , and/or wedges, ) is shown in a chemical structure, or a stereochemical assignment (e.g., using (R) and (S) notation, or (d) and (l) notation) is made in a chemical name, it is meant to indicate that the depicted/referred to isomer is present and substantially free of one or more other isomer(s) (e.g., enantiomers and diastereomers, when present). “Substantially free of” other isomer(s) indicates at least an 70/30 ratio of the indicated isomer to the other isomer(s), more preferably 80/20, 90/10, or 95/5 or more. In some embodiments, the indicated isomer will be present in an amount of at least 99%. A chemical bond to an asymmetric carbon that is depicted as a solid line ( ) indicates that all possible stereoisomers (e.g., enantiomers, diastereomers, racemic mixtures, etc.) at that carbon atom are included. In such instances, the compound may be present as a racemic mixture, scalemic mixture, or a mixture of diastereomers. [0026] The compounds of the present disclosure may also contain unnatural proportions of atomic isotopes at one or more of the atoms that constitute such compounds. Unnatural proportions of an isotope may be defined as ranging from the amount found in nature to an amount consisting of 100% of the atom in question. For example, the compounds may incorporate radioactive isotopes, such as for example tritium (3H), iodine-125 (125I) or carbon-14 (14C), or non-radioactive isotopes, such as deuterium (2H) or carbon-13 (13C). Such isotopic variations can provide additional utilities to those described elsewhere herein. For instance, isotopic variants of the compounds of the disclosure may find additional utility, including but not limited to, as diagnostic and/or imaging reagents, or as cytotoxic/radiotoxic therapeutic agents. Additionally, isotopic variants of the compounds of the disclosure can have altered pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics which can contribute to enhanced safety, tolerability or efficacy during treatment. In some embodiments, the compounds according to this disclosure are characterized by one or more deuterium atoms. [0027] The terms “patient” or “subject” are used interchangeably to refer to a human or a non- human animal (e.g., a mammal). [0028] The terms “treat”, “treating”, treatment” and the like refer to a course of action that eliminates, reduces, suppresses, mitigates, ameliorates, or prevents the worsening of, either temporarily or permanently, a disease, disorder or condition to which the term applies, or at least one of the symptoms associated therewith. Treatment includes alleviation of symptoms, diminishment of extent of disease, inhibiting (e.g., arresting the development or further development of the disease, disorder or condition or clinical symptoms association therewith) an active disease, delaying or slowing of disease progression, improving the quality of life, and/or prolonging survival of a subject as compared to expected survival if not receiving treatment or as compared to a published standard of care therapy for a particular disease. [0029] The term “in need of treatment” as used herein refers to a judgment made by a physician or similar professional that a subject requires or will benefit from treatment. This judgment is made based on a variety of factors that are in the realm of the physician’s expertise, which may include a positive diagnosis of a disease, disorder or condition. [0030] The terms “prevent”, “preventing”, “prevention”, “prophylaxis” and the like refer to a course of action initiated in a manner (e.g., prior to the onset of a disease, disorder, condition or symptom thereof) so as to prevent, suppress, inhibit or reduce, either temporarily or permanently, a subject’s risk of developing a disease, disorder, condition or the like (as determined by, for example, the absence of clinical symptoms) or delaying the onset thereof, generally in the context of a subject predisposed to having a particular disease, disorder or condition. In certain instances, the terms also refer to slowing the progression of the disease, disorder or condition or inhibiting progression thereof to a harmful or otherwise undesired state. Prevention also refers to a course of action initiated in a subject after the subject has been treated for a disease, disorder, condition or a symptom associated therewith in order to prevent relapse of that disease, disorder, condition or symptom. In one or more embodiments, the preventative course of action is taken based on anticipation of a condition or event. In one embodiment, prevention refers to the prevention, suppression, inhibition or reduction of an allergic, immune, or autoimmune response in a subject suffering from an allergic, inflammatory, neuroinflammatory, neurological, immune, autoimmune, dermatological, respiratory, metabolic, cardiovascular or fibrotic disease, disorder, or condition. [0031] As used herein, the term “response” may refer to a symptom initiated by an irritant or trigger (e.g., an antigen originating from within the body, or from the external environment) in a subject. For example, “response” may refer to a reaction (e.g., hives, rash, welts, itchy skin, stinging skin, skin fissures, skin lesions, skin blisters, swelling (e.g., in joints, glands, or tissues), vertigo, fatigue, dizziness, fainting, lightheadedness, muscle weakness, headache, dry skin, dry eyes, hair loss, numbness or tingling in extremities, joint pain and/or stiffness, sneezing, runny nose, stuffy nose, chest tightness and/or pain, shortness of breath, wheezing, itchy eyes, watery eyes, blurred vision, sensitivity to light, stomach cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, indigestion, heartburn, excessive flatulence, frequent urination, difficulty swallowing, muscle spasm, muscle tremor, unexpected weight gain or loss, increased thirst, increased hunger, irritability, temperature sensitivity, low blood pressure, constriction of airways, weak pulse, rapid pulse, nausea, vomiting, anemia, depression, and the like) caused by an external or internal trigger in a subject susceptible to the trigger. Subjects susceptible to a trigger are generally those suffering from an allergic, inflammatory, neuroinflammatory, neurological, immune, autoimmune, dermatological, respiratory, metabolic, cardiovascular or fibrotic disease, disorder, or condition, such as those described elsewhere herein. [0032] The term “in need of prevention” as used herein refers to a judgment made by a physician or other caregiver that a subject requires or will benefit from preventative care. This judgment is made based on a variety of factors that are in the realm of a physician’s or caregiver’s expertise. [0033] “Substantially pure” indicates that a component (e.g., a compound according to this disclosure) makes up greater than about 50% of the total content of the composition, and typically greater than about 60% of the total content. More typically, “substantially pure” refers to compositions in which at least 75%, at least 85%, at least 90% or more of the total composition is the component of interest. In some cases, the component of interest will make up greater than about 90%, or greater than about 95% of the total content of the composition. [0034] The terms “inhibitor of KIT” and “KIT inhibitor” may be used interchangeably, and refer to the ability of a molecule to decrease the activation of KIT either directly or indirectly, thereby decreasing activation and/or quantity of systemic mast cells. [0035] Compounds that are selective for KIT may be particularly useful in the treatment of certain disorders or may offer a reduced likelihood of undesired side effects. In one embodiment, compounds of the present disclosure are selective over one or more other receptor tyrosine kinases. Specific examples include, but are not limited to, PDGFRα, PDGFRβ, CSF1R, and FLT3. Selectivity may be determined, for example, by comparing the inhibition of a compound as described herein against KIT against the inhibition of a compound as described herein against another kinase. In one embodiment, the selective inhibition of a compound of Formula III or an associated sub-formula is at least 1000 times greater, 500 times greater, 100 times greater, 50 times greater, or 20 times greater than inhibition of one or more kinases selected from PDGFRα, PDGFRβ, CSF1R, and FLT3. [0036] Compounds provided herein may have advantageous pharmacokinetic profiles including, for example, hepatocyte stability, clearance, inhibition against CYP, and inhibition against hERG.

[0089] In some embodiments, the compounds according to this disclosure is a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound described above or described in the Examples. Methods of Use [0090] The present disclosure provides methods for using the compounds described herein in the preparation of a medicament for inhibition of KIT. In some embodiments, the medicament is for inhibiting KIT. As used herein, the terms “inhibit”, “inhibition” and the like refer to the ability of an antagonist to decrease the function or activity of a particular target, e.g., KIT. The decrease is preferably at least a 50% and may be, for example, at least about 55%, at least about 60%, at least about 65%, at least about 70%, at least about 75%, at least about 80%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, or at least about 95%. The present disclosure also encompasses the use of the compounds described herein in the preparation of a medicament for the treatment or prevention of diseases, disorders, and/or conditions that would benefit from inhibition of KIT. As one example, the present disclosure encompasses the use of the compounds described herein in the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of an allergic, inflammatory, neuroinflammatory, neurological, autoimmune, dermatological, respiratory, metabolic, cardiovascular or a fibrotic disease, disorder or condition. In some embodiments of the aforementioned methods, the compounds described herein are used in combination with at least one additional therapy, examples of which are set forth elsewhere herein. [0091] In some embodiments, the compounds of this disclosure are inhibitors of wild type KIT. In other embodiments, the compounds are inhibitors of mutant forms of KIT. Exemplary mutant forms of KIT include, but are not limited to, KIT (L576P), KIT (V559D), KIT (V559D, T670I), KIT (V559D, V654A), KIT (D816V), KIT (D816H), and KIT (A829P). In some embodiments, the compounds of the disclosure inhibit both wild type KIT and one or more mutant forms selected from KIT (L576P), KIT (V559D), KIT (V559D, T670I), KIT (V559D, V654A), KIT (D816V), KIT (D816H), and KIT (A829P). [0092] As demonstrated herein, the compounds according to this disclosure potently inhibit the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) KIT. Mast cells release proinflammatory and immunomodulatory mediators upon activation via binding of Stem Cell Factor (SCF) to KIT. Mast cells respond to antigens when activated and are often identified by the co-expression of KIT and FcεRI. KIT signaling is necessary for mast cell differentiation, maturation and survival. For certain diseases, mast cell activation may play a central role in the onset and progression of the disease. Accordingly, inhibition of KIT may lead to mast cell depletion, and/or reduced mast cell activation, and provide a promising therapeutic approach for mast cell-driven diseases. [0093] Diseases, disorders, and/or conditions that would benefit from KIT inhibition may include those in which mast cells play a contributory or vital role, or which are mediated, at least in part, by mast cell degranulation or mast cell activation. [0094] Accordingly, in some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered to a subject in need thereof in an amount effective to inhibit KIT. KIT inhibition may be assessed using a peripheral serum sample, blood sample or a tissue sample obtained from the subject. Activity may be determined, for example, by comparison to a previous sample obtained from the subject (i.e., prior to administration of the compound described herein) or by comparison to a reference value for a control group (e.g., standard of care, a placebo, etc.). [0095] Alternatively or in addition, in some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered to a subject in need thereof in an amount effective to diminish the activity and/or quantity of systemic mast cells in the subject. Mast cell activity and quantity may be assessed using a peripheral serum sample, blood sample or a tissue sample obtained from the subject. Activity may be determined, for example, by comparison to a previous sample obtained from the subject (i.e., prior to administration of the compound) or by comparison to a reference value for a control group (e.g., standard of care, a placebo, etc.). As a specific example, mast cell quantity can be assessed by measuring tryptase levels in a suitable sample (e.g., a blood or serum sample) from a subject to determine mast cell burden on the subject. In one embodiment, the compounds described herein are administered to a subject identified as having a high mast cell burden. [0096] Alternatively or in addition, in some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered to a subject in need thereof to treat and/prevent an allergic, inflammatory, neuroinflammatory, neurological, immune, autoimmune, dermatological, respiratory, metabolic, cardiovascular, or fibrotic disease, disorder, or condition. In some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered in combination with one or more additional therapeutic agents, examples of which are set forth elsewhere herein. [0097] Alternatively or in addition, in some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered to a subject in need thereof to treat and/prevent a symptom or response associated with an allergic, inflammatory, neuroinflammatory, neurological, immune, autoimmune, dermatological, respiratory, metabolic, cardiovascular, or fibrotic disease, disorder, or condition. In some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered in combination with one or more additional therapeutic agents, examples of which are set forth elsewhere herein. [0098] Alternatively or in addition, in some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered to a subject suffering from an allergic, inflammatory, neuroinflammatory, neurological, immune, autoimmune, dermatological, respiratory, metabolic, cardiovascular, or fibrotic disease, disorder, or condition in order to treat and/or prevent a response or symptom associated therewith. In some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered in combination with one or more additional therapeutic agents, examples of which are set forth elsewhere herein. [0099] Alternatively or in addition, in some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered to a subject in need thereof to treat and/or prevent cancer or a cancer-related disease, disorder or condition.

Administration [0127] In general, the disclosed methods comprise administering a compound of Formula III or an associated sub-formula described herein, or a composition thereof, in an effective amount to a subject in need thereof. An “effective amount” with reference to a KIT inhibitor of the present disclosure means an amount of the compound that is sufficient to engage the target (by inhibiting, or antagonizing the target) at a level that is indicative of the potency of the molecule. For KIT, target engagement can be determined by one or more biochemical or cellular assays resulting in an EC50, ED50, EC90, IC50, or similar value which can be used as one assessment of the potency of the compound. Assays for determining target engagement include, but are not limited to, those described in the Examples. The effective amount may be administered as a single quantity or as multiple, smaller quantities (e.g., as one tablet with “x” amount, as two tablets each with “x/2” amount, etc.). [0128] In some embodiments, the disclosed methods comprise administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula III or an associated sub-formula described herein to a subject in need thereof. As used herein, the phrase “therapeutically effective amount” with reference to KIT inhibition means a dose regimen (i.e., amount and interval) of the compound that provides the specific pharmacological effect for which the compound is administered to a subject in need of such treatment. For prophylactic use, a therapeutically effective amount may be effective to eliminate or reduce the risk, lessen the severity, or delay the onset of the disease, including biochemical, histological and/or behavioral signs or symptoms of the disease. For treatment, a therapeutically effective amount may be effective to reduce, ameliorate, or eliminate one or more signs or symptoms associated with a disease, delay disease progression, prolong survival, decrease the dose of other medication(s) required to treat the disease, or a combination thereof. In one embodiment, a therapeutically effective amount may be effective to reduce mast cell burden in the subject. With respect to cancer specifically, a therapeutically effective amount may, for example, result in the killing of cancer cells, reduce cancer cell counts, reduce tumor burden, eliminate tumors or metastasis, or reduce metastatic spread. A therapeutically effective amount of a KIT inhibitor need not always be effective in treating every individual subject to be deemed to be a therapeutically effective amount by those of skill in the art. A therapeutically effective amount may vary based on, for example, one or more of the following: the age and weight of the subject, the subject’s overall health, the stage of the subject’s disease, the route of administration, and prior or concomitant treatments. [0129] Administration may comprise one or more (e.g., one, two, or three or more) dosing cycles. [0130] In certain embodiments, the compounds of Formula III or an associated sub-formula contemplated by the present disclosure may be administered (e.g., orally, parenterally, topically, via inhalation, etc.) at about 0.01 mg/kg to about 50 mg/kg, or about 1 mg/kg to about 25 mg/kg, of subject’s body weight per day, one or more times a day, a week, or a month, to obtain the desired effect. In some embodiments, a suitable weight-based dose of a compound contemplated by the present disclosure is used to determine a dose that is administered independent of a subject’s body weight (i.e., a fixed-dose). In certain embodiments, a compound of the present disclosure is administered (e.g., orally, parenterally, etc.) at a fixed dosage levels of about 1 mg to about 1000 mg, particularly 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 50, 75, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 400, 500, 600, 750, 800, 900, or 1000 mg, one or more times a day, a week, or a month, to obtain the desired effect. [0131] In certain embodiments, the compound of Formula III or an associated sub-formula is contained in a “unit dosage form”. The phrase “unit dosage form” refers to physically discrete units, each unit containing a predetermined amount of the compound, either alone or in combination with one or more additional agents, sufficient to produce the desired effect. It will be appreciated that the parameters of a unit dosage form will depend on the particular agent and the effect to be achieved. Combination Therapy [0132] The present disclosure contemplates the use of the KIT inhibitors described herein alone, or in combination with one or more additional therapeutic agents. The use of the KIT inhibitors described herein in combination with one or more additional therapies may have a synergistic therapeutic or prophylactic effect on the underlying disease, disorder, or condition. In addition or alternatively, the combination therapy may allow for a dose reduction of one or more of the therapies, thereby ameliorating, reducing or eliminating adverse effects associated with one or more of the agents. [0133] In embodiments comprising one or more additional therapeutic agents, the KIT inhibitor described herein can be administered before, during, or after treatment with the additional therapeutic agents. In embodiments comprising one or more additional therapeutic agents, the therapeutic agents used in such combination therapy can be formulated as a single composition or as separate compositions. If administered separately, each therapeutic agent in the combination can be given at or around the same time, or at different times. Furthermore, the therapeutic agents are administered “in combination” even if they have different forms of administration (e.g., oral capsule and intravenous), they are given at different dosing intervals, one therapeutic agent is given at a constant dosing regimen while another is titrated up, titrated down or discontinued, or each therapeutic agent in the combination is independently titrated up, titrated down, increased or decreased in dosage, or discontinued and/or resumed during a patient’s course of therapy. If the combination is formulated as separate compositions, in some embodiments, the separate compositions are provided together in a kit. Inflammatory, immune and autoimmune-related diseases, disorders and conditions [0134] The present disclosure contemplates the use of the KIT inhibitors described herein in combination with one or more additional therapies useful in the treatment of inflammatory and immune-related diseases, disorders and conditions, such as those described elsewhere herein.

There are a variety of AXL inhibitors under development that also inhibit other kinases in the TAM family (i.e., TYRO3, MERTK), as well as other receptor tyrosine kinases including MET, FLT3, RON and AURORA, among others. Exemplary multikinase inhibitors include sitravatinib, rebastinib, glesatinib, gilteritinib, merestinib, cabozantinib, foretinib, BMS777607, LY2801653, S49076, and RXDX- 106. AXL specific inhibitors have also been developed, e.g., small molecule inhibitors including DS-1205, SGI-7079, SLC-391, TP-0903 (i.e., dubermatinib), BGB324 (i.e., bemcentinib), DP3975, and AB801; anti-AXL antibodies such as ADCT-601; and antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) such as BA3011. Another strategy to inhibit AXL signaling involves targeting AXL’s ligand, GAS6. For example, batiraxcept (AVB-500) is under development as is a Fc fusion protein that binds the GAS6 ligand thereby inhibiting AXL signaling. In some embodiments, the additional therapeutic agent is an AXL inhibitor described in WO 2022246177, WO 2022246179, or PCT/US2023/069124. In some embodiments, the AXL inhibitor is AB801. [0202] In some embodiments, the additional therapeutic agent comprises chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or both. [0203] In one or more embodiments, the additional therapeutic agent comprises domvanalimab, etrumadenant, quemliclustat, zimberelimab, AB308, AB521, AB598, or AB801, or any combinations thereof. [0204] In one or more embodiments, the additional therapeutic agent comprises one or more of an immune checkpoint inhibitor, an A2R antagonist, a CD73 inhibitor, a HIF-2α inhibitor, a chemotherapeutic agent, radiation therapy, or any combinations thereof.

[0205] Selection of the additional therapeutic agent(s) may be informed by current standard of care for a particular cancer and/or mutational status of a subject’s cancer and/or stage of disease. Detailed standard of care guidelines are published, for example, by National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN).

Methods of Synthesis General chemistry and methods for the preparation of compounds of the claims [0206] The exemplary molecules described herein and represented in the claims can be synthesized by the methods outlined in the following experimental section, and by various methods that are known to those skilled in the art. The exemplary molecules were synthesized from starting materials that are commercially available or readily prepared by standard synthetic methods. Equation 1 illustrates a retrosynthetic disconnection of the compounds of the invention into fragments a, b and c, which are useful for the construction of the compounds according to this disclosure. In general, compounds represented in the claims can be constructed using methods that consist of three parts, which may be done in any order: modification of the functional groups present in fragments a, b or c; connection of the a and b fragments; and connection of fragments b and c.
Figure imgf000078_0001
[0207] There are several exemplary methods for the preparation of claimed compounds. Equation 2 demonstrates one method of forming the bond between fragments a and b. In the case of eq.2, a readily available carboxylic acid derived from fragment a is converted to an activated intermediate, such as an acid chloride or an activated ester, using a suitable amide coupling reagent(s). One skilled in the art will recognize that the conversion of carboxylic acids to acid chlorides can be accomplished using a wide range of conditions and reagents, such as oxalyl chloride or thionyl chloride. Alternatively, carboxylic acids are readily converted to activated esters through the use of amide coupling reagents, such as HATU, CDI, EDC, HOBt, T3P or various other reagents (see, e.g., “Synthesis of amides” in https://www.organic- chemistry.org/synthesis/C1N/amides.shtm). The activated ester or acid chloride derived from fragment a can be coupled with a wide variety of amines, including but not limited to anilines (fragment b). The transformation may be assisted or accelerated by heating and/or addition of a base.
Figure imgf000078_0002
Figure imgf000078_0003
[0208] Equations 3–6 demonstrate useful methods of synthesizing an appropriately substituted 1,2,4-triazole and connecting fragments b and c. In the case of Eq.3, an appropriately substituted aryl hydrazide readily condenses with an appropriately substituted carboximidamide or carboximidic acid ester to afford the corresponding 1,2,4-triazole, wherein “OR” typically consists of—but is not limited to—a methoxy or ethoxy group. The transformation may be assisted by the use of an organic or inorganic base and/or by heating. In the case of Eq.4, the functionalization of the reactants is reversed, wherein an appropriately substituted arylcarboximidamide or arylcarboximidic acid ester readily condenses with an appropriately substituted hydrazide. Equation 5 demonstrates another method of forming the bond between fragments b and c via a Pd- catalyzed coupling reaction, such as a Suzuki reaction. In the case of Eq.5, -B(OR)2 represents a boronic acid or ester and X2 may be chosen from an appropriate halogen atom, such as Cl, Br, or I. The coupling is mediated by a transition metal catalyst, such as palladium with an appropriate ligand, and may be facilitated by the use of an organic or inorganic base and heating. The functionalization of the coupling partners may be reversed, as exemplified in Eq. 6, and a wide variety of conditions are known in the art to effect these transformations.

[0209] There are other possible combinations and synthetic sequences that will also give rise to the targeted products. Formation of the bond between fragments a and b may occur before or after connection of the b and c fragments, and each of these fragments may be further modified before or after connection of fragments a, b and c. A variety of the methods described above have been used to prepare compounds of the invention, some of which are exemplified in the examples.

[0213] Step a: A 40 mL vial was charged with pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-3-carboxylic acid (486 mg, 3.0 mmol, 1.0 equiv.), HATU (1.71 g, 4.5 mmol, 1.5 equiv.), EtNiPr2 (1.53 mL, 9.0 mmol, 3.0 equiv.) and DMF (8.6 mL, 0.35 M). The resulting mixture was stirred at 50 °C for 1 h. Upon complete conversion, as judged by LCMS analysis, the reaction mixture was cooled to rt and diluted with water. The resulting precipitated solid was collected by vacuum filtration, rinsed with water, and dried in vacuo to afford triazolo[4,5-b]pyridin-3-yl pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-3- carboxylate as a tan solid (765 mg, 91% yield), which was used directly in the next step without further purification. [0214] Step b: A mixture of 2-methyl-5-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)aniline HCl (320 mg, 1.14 mmol, 1.0 equiv.), EtNiPr2 (0.36 ml, 2.0 equiv.) and triazolo[4,5-b]pyridin-3- yl pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-3-carboxylate (280 mg, 1.04 mmol, 1.1 equiv.) in NMP (2 mL, 0.5 M) was stirred at 120 °C for approximately 3 h. Upon complete conversion, as judged by LCMS analysis, the reaction mixture was cooled to rt and diluted with water. The resulting precipitated solid was collected by vacuum filtration, rinsed with water, and dried in vacuo to afford N-[2- methyl-5-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-3- carboxamide, which was used directly in the next step without further purification. The product of step b could also be accessed via an alternative, two-step protocol involving an initial amidation with 5-bromo-2-methylaniline followed by Pd-catalyzed borylation. [0215] Step c: The crude intermediate obtained via step b (20 mg in 0.1 mL NMP, 0.053 mmol, 1.0 eq.) was combined with triazole bromide (20 mg, 0.106 mmol, 2.0 equiv.), XPhos Pd G3 (20 mg, 0.024 mmol, 45 mol%), 1 M aq. Na2CO3 solution (0.4 mL, 0.4 mmol, 7.5 equiv.), and dioxane (0.4 mL, 0.07 M). The reaction mixture was briefly degassed by evacuation/back-filling with N2 3x. The reaction mixture was stirred at 100 °C for approximately 2 h, at which time LCMS analysis indicated complete consumption of starting material. The reaction mixture was cooled to rt and diluted with EtOAc. The organic layer was separated, filtered over Celite®, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by HPLC to provide the title compound as the HCl salt (5.0 mg, 25% yield).1H NMR (400 MHz, Methanol-d4) δ 8.73 – 8.62 (m, 2H), 8.29 (d, J = 8.9 Hz, 1H), 8.11 (d, J = 1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.80 (dd, J = 8.0, 1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.60 – 7.44 (m, 2H), 7.17 – 7.06 (m, 1H), 2.46 (s, 3H), 2.36 (ddd, J = 11.0, 7.4, 3.8 Hz, 1H), 1.48 – 1.40 (m, 2H), 1.34 – 1.23 (m, 2H).

Biological Example Inhibition of c-Kit, PDGFRα, PDGFRβ, CSF1R and FLT3 kinase activity [0444] Compounds were evaluated to determine the potency with which they inhibit the kinase activity of the following panel of tyrosine kinases: c-Kit (SignalChem, Product #: K06-11BG), PDGFRα (SignalChem, Product #: P12-18G), PDGFRβ (SignalChem, Product #: P13-11G), CSF1R (SignalChem, Product #: C74-11G) and FLT3 (Invitrogen, Product #: PR4666C). Activity was determined as a function of phosphorylated biotinylated TK peptide generated by the transfer of phosphate from ATP as measured by the use of the HTRF KinEASE-TK assay kit (Cisbio, Product #: 62TK0PEJ). Levels of phosphorylated biotinylated TK peptide (Part 61TK0BLC of KinEASE assay kit) are quantified by its capture by phosphor-TK-Antibody-Cryptate (Part of KinEASE assay kit) and XL665-labeled Streptavidin (Part 610SAXLG of KinEASE assay kit) followed by measurement of Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (TR- FRET) signal. On the day of the assay, compounds were solubilized in DMSO and dispensed into a 384-well white Opti-plate (PerkinElmer, catalog # 6007290) to generate a 22 point 1:2 titration. Enzyme solution was prepared for each of the tyrosine kinases in 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl2 for c-Kit or 10 mM MgCl2 for FLT3, CSF1R, PDGFRα and PDGFRβ, 2 mM MnCl2, 0.01% Brij-35 and 0.01% BSA. Working enzyme concentrations were prepared for c-Kit at 2 nM (2x), PDGFRα and PDGFRβ at 10 nM (2x), CSF1R at 2 nM (2x) and FLT3 at 0.4 nM (2x). Five microliters of enzyme dilution of each tyrosine kinase were added to their respective 384-well white Opti-plate pre-dispensed with compound and allowed to incubate for 1 h at rt. Utilizing the same enzyme buffer recipe, 2x substrate mixes were prepared for each enzyme as follows: For c- Kit, 1.6 μM (2x) TK substrate and 16 µM (2x) ATP (Promega, catalog # V915). For PDGFRα, 3.2 μM TK substrate and 1 μM ATP. For PDGFRβ, 3.2 μM TK substrate and 40 μM ATP. For CSF1R, 3.2 μM TK substrate and 20 μM ATP. For FLT3, 3.2 μM TK substrate and 100 μM ATP. Reactions were initiated by addition of 5 µL of the respective 2x substrate mix to each well of the plates containing the respective tyrosine kinase enzymes and were allowed to proceed for 120 minutes at rt, except for FLT3, the reaction time is 45 min. Following the reaction, 10 μL of detection mix consisting of 0.2 μM (2x) of Streptavidin-XL665 and 2 μM (2x) of TK-Antibody-Cryptate prepared in detection buffer (Part 62SDBRDF of KinEASE assay kit) was added and then allowed to incubate for 60 min. The TR-FRET signal was quantified by measuring the ratio of emission at 665 nm to 620 nm after excitation at 320 nm by reading on a PerkinElmer Envision multimode reader. Compound potencies (IC50 values) were determined using a standard 4-parameter non- linear regression fit. Phospho-KIT (Y703) Cellular Assay in M07e Cells [0445] The day prior to assay, M07e cells (DSMZ, catalog # ACC 104) were serum starved. Cells were centrifuged and cell pellet resuspended in OptiMEM (Gibco, catalog # 31985062) to a density of 1x106 - 2.5x106 cells per mL. Cells were then incubated overnight at 5% CO2 and 37 °C in an appropriately sized flask. On the day of the experiment, an 11 point, half log titration of test compound was pre-dispensed into 96-well round bottom polypropylene plates (Corning, catalog # 3365). The serum starved M07e cells were centrifuged and resuspended to a cell density of 1x106 cells per mL with DPBS (Gibco, catalog # 14190-144). Live/Dead Green Fixable viability dye (Invitrogen, catalog # L34970) was added as 1 µL/ 1 mL of cell suspension. Cells were then incubated in the dark at 4 °C for 30 min. Cells were washed by centrifugation and resuspension with DPBS + 0.5% BSA (Gemini Bio Products, catalog # 700110/100, 30% BSA solution). Cells were resuspended, separated into two equal volumes and again centrifuged. Cell pellets were resuspended with either OptiMEM or human serum (Innovative Research, catalog # ISERAB1000ML) to a cell density of 1x106 cells per mL. Cells were then added to the appropriate compound plate at 100,000 cells per well in 100 μL and mixed. Plates were incubated at 5% CO2 and 37 °C for 50 min. Stem Cell Factor, SCF (R&D Systems, #255-SC/CF) was diluted in OptiMEM to 1 µg/mL and added to all wells as 10 µL for a final concentration of 90.9 ng/mL. Plates were incubated at 5% CO2 and 37 °C for 10 min. Incubation was stopped by addition of 110 µL 4% paraformaldehyde solution in PBS (Life Technologies, catalog # J19943.K2). Plates were incubated at rt for at least 15 min. Plates were then centrifuged and supernatant removed by flicking. Cells were washed once by resuspension in 200 µL DPBS + 0.5% BSA, centrifuged, and supernatant removed by flicking. Cells were resuspended in 100 µL 1X Permeabilization buffer (Invitrogen, catalog # 88882400) and plates incubated at rt for 30 min. Plates were centrifuged, supernatant removed by flicking, and cells resuspended in 50 µL primary antibody, anti-phospho- c-KIT (Tyr703) (Cell Signaling, catalog # 3073), diluted to 1 µg/mL with permeabilization buffer. Plates were incubated at rt for 1 h. Plates were centrifuged, supernatant removed, and cells resuspended with 200 µL DPBS + 0.5% BSA. Plates were again centrifuged, supernatant removed by flicking, and cells resuspended in 100 µL secondary antibody, goat anti-rabbit AlexaFluor647 (AF647) (Invitrogen, catalog # A21244) diluted to 1 µg/mL with DPBS + 0.5% BSA. Plates were incubated at rt for 30 min. followed by centrifugation, supernatant removal, and cell resuspension with 200 µL DPBS + 0.5% BSA. Cells were washed again by centrifugation, supernatant removal, and cell resuspension with 200 µL DPBS + 0.5% BSA. Samples were then read by flow cytometry. The Forward:Side scatter plot was gated and that population was gated for live cells based on the Live/Dead Green staining. The geometric mean of AF647 of the live cell population was recorded. Percentage maximum activity in each test well was calculated based on DMSO (100% activity) and positive control treated cell wells (0% activity). The potencies (IC50 values) of test compounds were determined using a standard 4-parameter non-linear regression fit.
