## Background
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 12/643,504 filed on Dec. 21, 2009 now abandoned, which is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 12/005,066 filed on Dec. 20, 2007 now U.S. Pat. No. 7,728,030, which claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/978,526, filed on Oct. 9, 2007, U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/941,745, filed on Jun. 4, 2007, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/871,184, filed on Dec. 21, 2006; each of these prior applications is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.


The present invention relates to novel indazolyl ester or amide derivatives, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such derivatives, to processes for preparing such novel derivatives and to the use of such derivatives as medicaments (for example in the treatment of an inflammatory disease state).
Sulphonamide derivatives are disclosed as anti-inflammatories in WO 2004/019935 and WO 2004/050631. Pharmaceutically active sulphonamides are also disclosed in Arch. Pharm. (1980) 313 166-173, J. Med. Chem. (2003) 46 64-73, J. Med. Chem. (1997) 40 996-1004, EP 0031954, EP 1190710 (WO 200124786), U.S. Pat. No. 5,861,401, U.S. Pat. No. 4,948,809, U.S. Pat. No. 3,992,441 and WO 99/33786.
It is known that certain non-steroidal compounds interact with the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and, as a result of this interaction, produce a suppression of inflammation (see, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 6,323,199). Such compounds can show a clear dissociation between anti-inflammatory and metabolic actions making them superior to earlier reported steroidal and non-steroidal glucocorticoids. The present invention provides further non-steroidal compounds as modulators (for example agonists, antagonists, partial agonists or partial antagonists) of the glucocorticoid receptor.
These new compounds are contemplated to have improved properties such as selectivity, efficacy, etc. over the known compounds.
The present invention provides a compound of formula (I):

For the avoidance of doubt, the definitions of groups and substituents for compounds of formula Ic is as follows and is distinct and separate from those for formula I and Ib.
Compounds of formula (Ic) can exist in different isomeric forms (such as enantiomers, diastereomers, geometric isomers or tautomers). The present invention covers all such isomers and mixtures thereof in all proportions.
Suitable salts include acid addition salts such as a hydrochloride, hydrobromide, phosphate, acetate, trifluoroacetate, fumarate, maleate, tartrate, citrate, oxalate, methanesulphonate, p-toluenesulphonate, succinate, glutarate or malonate.
The compounds of formula (Ic) may exist as solvates (such as hydrates) and the present invention covers all such solvates.

As used herein the term “congestive heart failure” (CHF) or “congestive heart disease” refers to a disease state of the cardiovascular system whereby the heart is unable to efficiently pump an adequate volume of blood to meet the requirements of the body's tissues and organ systems. Typically, CHF is characterized by left ventricular failure (systolic dysfunction) and fluid accumulation in the lungs, with the underlying cause being attributed to one or more heart or cardiovascular disease states including coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, hypertension, diabetes, valvular heart disease, and cardiomyopathy. The term “diastolic congestive heart failure” refers to a state of CHF characterized by impairment in the ability of the heart to properly relax and fill with blood. Conversely, the term “systolic congestive heart failure” refers to a state of CHF characterized by impairment in the ability of the heart to properly contract and eject blood.
As will be appreciated by one of skill in the art, physiological disorders may present as a “chronic” condition, or an “acute” episode. The term “chronic”, as used herein, means a condition of slow progress and long continuance. As such, a chronic condition is treated when it is diagnosed and treatment continued throughout the course of the disease. Conversely, the term “acute” means an exacerbated event or attack, of short course, followed by a period of remission. Thus, the treatment of physiological disorders contemplates both acute events and chronic conditions. In an acute event, compound is administered at the onset of symptoms and discontinued when the symptoms disappear.

The term “disorder”, unless stated otherwise, means any condition and disease associated with glucocorticoid receptor activity.
Pharmaceutical Composition
In order to use a compound of formula (I), (Ib) or (Ic), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for the therapeutic treatment of a mammal, said active ingredient is normally formulated in accordance with standard pharmaceutical practice as a pharmaceutical composition.
Therefore another aspect the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I), (Ib) or (Ic), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, (active ingredient) and a pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvant, diluent or carrier. One embodiment relates to the use of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I), (Ib) or (Ic), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for treating a glucocorticoid receptor mediated disease state (such as a disease state described above), an inflammatory condition, asthma and/or COPD.
A further aspect the present invention provides a process for the preparation of said composition comprising mixing the active ingredient with a pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvant, diluent or carrier. Depending on the mode of administration, the pharmaceutical composition can comprise from 0.05 to 99% w (percent by weight), for example from 0.05 to 80% w, such as from 0.10 to 70% w (for example from 0.10 to 50% w), of active ingredient, all percentages by weight being based on total composition.
A pharmaceutical composition of the present invention can be administered in a standard manner for the disease condition that it is desired to treat, for example by topical (such as to the lung and/or airways or to the skin), oral, rectal or parenteral administration. Thus, a compound of formula (I), (Ib) or (Ic), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, may be formulated into the form of, for example, an aerosol, a powder (for example dry or dispersible), a tablet, a capsule, a syrup, a granule, an aqueous or oily solution or suspension, an (lipid) emulsion, a suppository, an ointment, a cream, drops, or a sterile injectable aqueous or oily solution or suspension.
A suitable pharmaceutical composition of this invention is one suitable for oral administration in unit dosage form, for example a tablet or capsule containing between 0.1 mg and 10 g of active ingredient.
In another aspect a pharmaceutical composition of the invention is one suitable for intravenous, subcutaneous, intraarticular or intramuscular injection.
In one embodiment the compounds of formula (I), (Ib) or (Ic), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, are administered orally.
In another embodiment the compounds of formula (I), (Ib) or (Ic), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, are administered by inhalation.
Buffers, pharmaceutically-acceptable cosolvents such as polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, glycerol or ethanol or complexing agents such as hydroxy-propyl β-cyclodextrin may be used to aid formulation.
The above formulations may be obtained by conventional procedures well known in the pharmaceutical art. Tablets may be enteric coated by conventional means, for example to provide a coating of cellulose acetate phthalate.
The invention further relates to combination therapies or compositions wherein the compounds of formula (I), (Ib) or (Ic), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition comprising the compounds of formula (I), (Ib) or (Ic), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered concurrently (possibly in the same composition) or sequentially with one or more agents for the treatment of any of the above disease states.
For example, for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, COPD, asthma or allergic rhinitis a compounds of formula (I), (Ib) or (Ic), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can be combined with one or more agents for the treatment of such a condition. Where such a combination is to be administered by inhalation, then the one or more agents is selected from the list comprising:

    
    
        a PDE4 inhibitor including an inhibitor of the isoform PDE4D;
        a selective β.sub2. adrenoceptor agonist such as metaproterenol, isoproterenol, isoprenaline, albuterol, salbutamol, formoterol, salmeterol, terbutaline, orciprenaline, bitolterol mesylate, pirbuterol or indacaterol;
        a muscarinic receptor antagonist (for example a M1, M2 or M3 antagonist, such as a selective M3 antagonist) such as ipratropium bromide, tiotropium bromide, oxitropium bromide, pirenzepine or telenzepine;
        a steroid (such as budesonide);
        a modulator of chemokine receptor function (such as a CCR1 receptor antagonist);
        an inhibitor of p38 kinase function;
        an inhibitor of matrix metalloproteases, most preferably targeting MMP-2, -9 or MMP-12; or,
        an inhibitor of neutrophil serine proteases, most preferably neutrophil elastase or proteinase 3.
        In another embodiment of the invention where such a combination is for the treatment of COPD, asthma or allergic rhinitis, the compounds of formula (I), (Ib) or (Ic), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can be administered by inhalation or by the oral route and the other agent, e.g. xanthine (such as aminophylline or theophylline) can be administered by inhalation or by the oral route. The compounds of formula (I), (Ib) or (Ic), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and the other agent, e.g xanthine may be administered together. They may be administered sequentially. Or they may be administered separately.

The assay is based on a commercial kit from Panvera/Invitrogen (Part number P2893). The assay technology is fluorescence polarization. The kit utilises recombinant human GR (Panvera, Part number P2812), a FluoromoneTM labelled tracer (GS Red, Panvera, Part number P2894) and a Stabilizing Peptide 10× (Panvera, Part number P2815). The GR and Stabilizing Peptide reagents are stored at −70° C. while the GS Red is stored at −20° C. Also included in the kit are 1M DTT (Panvera, Part number P2325, stored at −20° C.) and GR Screening buffer 10× (Panvera, Part number P2814, stored at −70° C. initially but once thawed stored at r.t.). Avoid repeated freeze/thaws for all reagents. The GR Screening buffer 10× comprises 100 mM potassium phosphate, 200 mM sodium molybdate, 1 mM EDTA and 20% DMSO.
Test compounds (1 μL) and controls (1 μL) in 100% DMSO were added to black polystyrene 384-well plates (Greiner low volume black flat-bottom, part number 784076). 0% control was 100% DMSO and 100% control was 10M Dexamethasone. Background solution (8 μL; assay buffer 10×, Stabilizing Peptide, DTT and ice cold MQ water) was added to the background wells. GS Red solution (7 μL; assay buffer 10×, Stabilizing Peptide, DTT, GS Red and ice cold water) was added to all wells except background wells. GR solution (7 μL; assay buffer 10×, Stabilizing Peptide, DTT, GR and ice cold water) was added to all wells. The plate was sealed and incubated in a dark at r.t. for 2 h. The plate was read in an Analyst plate reader (LJL Biosystems/Molecular Devices Corporation) or other similar plate reader capable of recording fluorescence polarization (excitation wavelength 530 nm, emission wavelength 590 nM and a dichroic mirror at 561 nm). The IC50 values were calculated using XLfit model 205.
