Definitions
- the present patent application is directed to amides of aryl and heteroaryl compounds which may be useful as retinoid-related orphan receptor gamma t (RORyt) modulators.
- RORs Retinoid-related orphan receptors
- the ROR family consists of three members, ROR alpha (RORa), ROR beta (RORP) and ROR gamma (RORy), also known as NR1F1, NR1F2 and NR1F3 respectively (and each encoded by a separate gene RORA, RORB and RORC, respectively).
- RORs contain four principal domains shared by the majority of nuclear receptors: an N-terminal A/B domain, a DNA-binding domain, a hinge domain, and a ligand binding domain. Each ROR gene generates several isoforms which differ only in their N-terminal A/B domain. Two isoforms of RORy, RORyl and RORyt (also known as RORy2) have been identified.
- RORyt is a truncated form of RORy, lacking the first N-terminal 21 amino acids and is exclusively expressed in cells of the lymphoid lineage and embryonic lymphoid tissue inducers (Sun et al, Science, 2000, 288, 2369-2372; Eberl et al, Nat Immunol., 2004, 5: 64-73) in contrast to RORy which is expressed in multiple tissues (heart, brain, kidney, lung, liver and muscle).
- Thl7 cells are a subset of T helper cells which produce IL-17 and other proinflammatory cytokines and have been shown to have key functions in several mouse autoimmune disease models including experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) and collagen-induced arthritis (CIA).
- EAE experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis
- CIA collagen-induced arthritis
- Thl7 cells have also been associated in the pathology of a variety of human inflammatory and autoimmune disorders including multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, Crohn's disease and asthma (Jetten et al, Nucl. Recept. Signal, 2009, 7:e003; Manel et al, Nat. Immunol, 2008, 9, 641-649).
- Thl7 cells are one of the important drivers of the inflammatory process in tissue-specific autoimmunity (Steinman et al., J. Exp. Med., 2008, 205: 1517-1522; Leung et al, Cell. Mol. Immunol, 2010 7: 182-189). Thl7 cells are activated during the disease process and are responsible for recruiting other inflammatory cells types, especially neutrophils, to mediate pathology in the target tissues (Korn et al., Annu. Rev.
- RORyt is also shown to play a crucial role in other non-Thl7 cells, such as mast cells (Hueber et al, / Immunol, 2010, 184: 3336-3340).
- RORyt expression and secretion of Thl7-type of cytokines has also been reported in NK T- cells (Eberl et al., Nat. Immunol, 2004, 5: 64-73) and gamma-delta T-cells (Sutton et al, Nat. Immunol, 2009, 31 : 331-341; Louten et al, J Allergy Clin. Immunol, 2009, 123: 1004-1011), suggesting an important function for RORyt in these cells.

Technical Field
The present patent application is directed to amides of aryl and heteroaryl compounds which may be useful as retinoid-related orphan receptor gamma t (RORyt) modulators.
Background
Retinoid-related orphan receptors (RORs) are transcription factors which belong to the steroid hormone nuclear receptor super family. The ROR family consists of three members, ROR alpha (RORa), ROR beta (RORP) and ROR gamma (RORy), also known as NR1F1, NR1F2 and NR1F3 respectively (and each encoded by a separate gene RORA, RORB and RORC, respectively). RORs contain four principal domains shared by the majority of nuclear receptors: an N-terminal A/B domain, a DNA-binding domain, a hinge domain, and a ligand binding domain. Each ROR gene generates several isoforms which differ only in their N-terminal A/B domain. Two isoforms of RORy, RORyl and RORyt (also known as RORy2) have been identified.
RORyt is a truncated form of RORy, lacking the first N-terminal 21 amino acids and is exclusively expressed in cells of the lymphoid lineage and embryonic lymphoid tissue inducers (Sun et al, Science, 2000, 288, 2369-2372; Eberl et al, Nat Immunol., 2004, 5: 64-73) in contrast to RORy which is expressed in multiple tissues (heart, brain, kidney, lung, liver and muscle).
RORyt has been identified as a key regulator of Thl7 cell differentiation. Thl7 cells are a subset of T helper cells which produce IL-17 and other proinflammatory cytokines and have been shown to have key functions in several mouse autoimmune disease models including experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) and collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). In addition, Thl7 cells have also been associated in the pathology of a variety of human inflammatory and autoimmune disorders
including multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, Crohn's disease and asthma (Jetten et al, Nucl. Recept. Signal, 2009, 7:e003; Manel et al, Nat. Immunol, 2008, 9, 641-649). The pathogenesis of chronic autoimmune diseases including multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis arises from the break in tolerance towards self-antigens and the development of auto-aggressive effector T cells infiltrating the target tissues. Studies have shown that Thl7 cells are one of the important drivers of the inflammatory process in tissue-specific autoimmunity (Steinman et al., J. Exp. Med., 2008, 205: 1517-1522; Leung et al, Cell. Mol. Immunol, 2010 7: 182-189). Thl7 cells are activated during the disease process and are responsible for recruiting other inflammatory cells types, especially neutrophils, to mediate pathology in the target tissues (Korn et al., Annu. Rev. Immunol, 2009, 27:485-517) and RORyt has been shown to play a critical role in the pathogenic responses of Thl7 cells (Ivanov et al., Cell, 2006 126: 1121-1133). RORyt deficient mice have shown no Thl7 cells and also resulted in amelioration of EAE. The genetic disruption of RORy in a mouse colitis model also prevented colitis development (Buonocore et al, Nature, 2010, 464: 1371-1375). The role of RORyt in the pathogenesis of autoimmune or inflammatory diseases has been well documented in the literature. ( Jetten et al, Adv. Dev. Biol, 2006, 16:313-355; Meier et al. Immunity, 2007, 26:643-654; Aloisi et al, Nat. Rev. Immunol, 2006, 6:205-217; Jager et al, /. Immunol, 2009, 183:7169-7177; Serafmi et al, Brain Pathol, 2004, 14: 164-174; Magliozzi et al, Brain, 2007, 130: 1089- 1104; Barnes et al, Nat. Rev. Immunol, 2008, 8: 183-192).
In addition, RORyt is also shown to play a crucial role in other non-Thl7 cells, such as mast cells (Hueber et al, / Immunol, 2010, 184: 3336-3340). RORyt expression and secretion of Thl7-type of cytokines has also been reported in NK T- cells (Eberl et al., Nat. Immunol, 2004, 5: 64-73) and gamma-delta T-cells (Sutton et al, Nat. Immunol, 2009, 31 : 331-341; Louten et al, J Allergy Clin. Immunol, 2009, 123: 1004-1011), suggesting an important function for RORyt in these cells.
In view of the above, a need exists for therapeutic agents that could modulate the activity of RORyt and thus will open new methods for treating diseases or condition associated with the modulation of RORyt.
PCT publication numbers WO2012/139775, WO2012/027965, WO2012/028100, WO2012/100732, WO2012/100734, and WO2012/064744 disclose numerous heterocyclic compounds which are shown to be modulators of retinoid- related orphan receptor gamma (RORy) receptor activity.
The present application is directed to compounds that may be modulators of the RORyt receptor. Thus in light of the role RORyt plays in the pathogenesis of diseases, it is desirable to prepare compounds that modulate RORyt activity, which can be used in the treatment of diseases mediated by RORyt.

Pharmacological Activity
Biological Assay
The illustrative examples of the present patent application were screened for ROR gamma modulator activity using the TR-FRET assay by Lantha Screen as described in JBC 2011, 286, 26: 22707-10; Drug Metabolism and Disposition 2009, 37, 10: 2069- 78.
TR-FRET assay for ROR gamma:
The assay is based on the principle that binding of the agonist to the ROR gamma causes a conformational change around helix 12 in the ligand binding domain, resulting in higher affinity for the co-activator peptide. ROR gamma being constitutively active, the Fluorescein-D22 co-activator peptide used in the assay is recruited in the absence of a ligand. Binding of the co-activator peptide, causes an increase in the TR-FRET signal while binding of an antagonist decreases the recruitment of the co-activator peptide, causing a decrease in the TR-FRET signal compared to control with no compound. The assay was performed using a two step procedure, pre-incubation step with the compound followed by the detection step on addition of the anti-GST tagged terbium (Tb) and fluorescein tagged fluorophores as the acceptor.
Test compounds or reference compounds such as T0901317 (Calbiochem) were dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) to prepare 10.0 mM stock solution and diluted suitably to get the desired concentration. Final concentration of DMSO in the reaction was 4% (v/v). Assay mixture was prepared by mixing ΙΟηΜ of the GST- tagged ROR gamma ligand binding domain (LBD) in the assay buffer containing 25 mM HEPES, 100 mM NaCl, 5mM DTT and 0.01% BSA with or without the desired concentration of the compound. The reaction was incubated at 22°C for lhr. The preincubation step was terminated by addition of the detection mixture containing 300nM Fluorescein-D22 co-activator peptide and ΙΟηΜ lantha screen Tb-anti GST antibody into the reaction mixture. After shaking for 5 minutes the reaction was further incubated for 2 hr at room temperature and read at 4°C on an Infinite F500 reader as per the kit instructions (Invitrogen). The inhibition of test compound is calculated based on the TR-FRET ratio of 520/495. The activity was calculated as a percent of control reaction. IC50 values were calculated from dose response curve by nonlinear regression analysis using GraphPad Prism software.
The compounds prepared were tested using the above assay procedure and the results obtained are given in Table 6. Percentage inhibition at concentrations of 1.0 μΜ and 10.0 μΜ are given in the table along with IC50 (nM) details for selected examples. The compounds prepared were tested using the above assay procedure and were found to have IC50 less than ΙΟΟΟηΜ, preferably less than 500nM, more preferably less than ΙΟΟηΜ or most preferably less than 50nM.
The IC50 (nM) values of the compounds are set forth in Table 6 wherein "A" refers to an IC50 value of less than 50 nM, "B" refers to IC50 value in range of 50.01 to 100.0 nM. "C" refers to IC50 value in range of 100.01 to 500.0 nM and "D" refers to IC50 values more than 500 nM.
