FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention is in the field of pharmaceutical agents and specifically relates to compounds, compositions, uses and methods for treating inflammation-related disorders, including pain.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
More than two million people in the United States alone are incapacitated by chronic pain on any given day (T. M. Jessell & D. D. Kelly, Pain and Analgesia in Principles of Neural Science, 3rd edition (E. R. Kandel, J. H. Schwartz, T. M. Jessell, editors, (1991)). Unfortunately, current treatments for pain are only partially effective, and many cause life-style altering, debilitating, and/or dangerous side effects. For example, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (“NSAIDs”) such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and indomethacin are moderately effective against inflammatory pain but they are also renally toxic, and high doses tend to cause gastrointestinal irritation, ulceration, bleeding, increased cardiovascular risk, and confusion. Patients treated with opioids frequently experience confusion and constipation, and long-term opioid use is associated with tolerance and dependence. Local anesthetics such as lidocaine and mixelitine simultaneously inhibit pain and cause loss of normal sensation. In addition, when used systemically, local anesthetics are associated with adverse cardiovascular effects. Thus, there is currently an unmet need in the treatment of chronic pain.
Pain is a perception based on signals received from the environment and transmitted and interpreted by the nervous system (for review, see M. J. Millan, Prog. Neurobiol. 57:1-164 (1999)). Noxious stimuli such as heat and touch cause specialized sensory receptors in the skin to send signals to the central nervous system (“CNS”). This process is called nociception, and the peripheral sensory neurons that mediate it are nociceptors. Depending on the strength of the signal from the nociceptor(s) and the abstraction and elaboration of that signal by the CNS, a person may or may not experience a noxious stimulus as painful. When one's perception of pain is properly calibrated to the intensity of the stimulus, pain serves its intended protective function. However, certain types of tissue damage cause a phenomenon, known as hyperalgesia or pronociception, in which relatively innocuous stimuli are perceived as intensely painful because the person's pain thresholds have been lowered. Both inflammation and nerve damage can induce hyperalgesia. Thus, persons afflicted with inflammatory conditions, such as sunburn, osteoarthritis, colitis, carditis, dermatitis, myositis, neuritis, inflammatory bowel disease, collagen vascular diseases (which include rheumatoid arthritis and lupus) and the like, often experience enhanced sensations of pain. Similarly, trauma, surgery, amputation, abscess, causalgia, collagen vascular diseases, demyelinating diseases, trigeminal neuralgia, cancer, chronic alcoholism, stroke, thalamic pain syndrome, diabetes, herpes infections, acquired immune deficiency syndrome (“AIDS”), toxins and chemotherapy cause nerve injuries that result in excessive pain.
As the mechanisms by which nociceptors transduce external signals under normal and hyperalgesic conditions become better understood, processes implicated in hyperalgesia can be targeted to inhibit the lowering of the pain threshold and thereby lessen the amount of pain experienced.
Bradykinin (BK) and the related peptide, kallidin (Lys-BK) mediate the physiological actions of kinins on the cardiovascular and renal systems. However, the active peptides, BK and kallidin, are quickly degraded by peptidases in the plasma and other biological fluids and by those released from a variety of cells, so that the half-life of BK in plasma is reported to be approximately 17 seconds (1). BK and kallidin are rapidly metabolized in the body by carboxypeptidase N, which removes the carboxyterminal arginine residue to generate des-Arg BK or des-Arg kallidin. Des-Arg-kallidin is among the predominant kinins in man and mediate the pathophysiological actions of kinins in man. In addition to being a very potent proinflammatory peptide, des-Arg-BK or des-Arg-kallidin is known to induce vasodilation, vascular permeability, and bronchoconstriction (for review, see Regoli and Barabe, Pharmacological Rev, 32(1):1-46 (1980)). In addition, des-Arg-BK and des-Arg-kallidin appear to be particularly important mediators of inflammation and inflammatory pain as well as being involved in the maintenance thereof. There is also a considerable body of evidence implicating the overproduction of des-Arg-kallidin in conditions in which pain is a prominent feature such as septic shock, arthritis, angina, and migraine.
The membrane receptors that mediate the pleiotropic actions of kinins are of two distinct classes, designated B1 and B2. Both classes of receptors have been cloned and sequenced from a variety of species, including man (Menke, et al, J. Biol. Chem., 269:21583-21586 (1994); Hess et al, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., 184:260-268 (1992)). They are typical G protein coupled receptors having seven putative membrane spanning regions. In various tissues, BK receptors are coupled to every known second messenger. B2 receptors, which have a higher affinity for BK, appear to be the most prevalent form of bradykinin receptor. Essentially all normal physiological responses and many pathophysiological responses to bradykinin are mediated by B2 receptors.
B1 receptors, on the other hand, have a higher affinity for des-Arg-BK compared with BK, whereas des-Arg-BK is inactive at B2 receptors. In addition, B1 receptors are not normally expressed in most tissues. Their expression is induced upon injury or tissue damage as well as in certain kinds of chronic inflammation or systemic insult (Marceau, F. et al., Immunopharmacology, 30:1-26 (1995)). Furthermore, responses mediated by B1 receptors are upregulated from a null level following administration of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or inflammatory cytokines in rabbits, rats, and pigs.
The pain-inducing properties of kinins coupled with the inducible expression of B1 receptors make the B1 receptor an interesting target in the development of anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive, antihyperalgesic and analgesic agents that may be directed specifically at injured tissues with minimal actions in normal tissues.
Clearly, there is a need for new, safe and effective treatments for inflammation and pain. Such agents are provided in the present invention.

Definitions
The phrase “therapeutically-effective” is intended to qualify the amount of each agent, which will achieve the goal of improvement in disorder severity and the frequency of incidence over treatment of each agent by itself, while avoiding adverse side effects typically associated with alternative therapies. For example, effective pain therapeutic agents relieve the pain sensation of the patient. Alternatively, effective therapeutic agents for the treatment of inflammation minimize the damage from the inflammation, and the like.

While the compounds of the invention can be administered as the sole active pharmaceutical agent, they can also be used in combination with one or more compounds of the invention or other agents. When administered as a combination, the therapeutic agents can be formulated as separate compositions that are administered at the same time or sequentially at different times, or the therapeutic agents can be given as a single composition.
The phrase “co-therapy” (or “combination-therapy”), in defining use of a compound of the present invention and another pharmaceutical agent, is intended to embrace administration of each agent in a sequential manner in a regimen that will provide beneficial effects of the drug combination, and is intended as well to embrace co-administration of these agents in a substantially simultaneous manner, such as in a single capsule having a fixed ratio of these active agents or in multiple, separate capsules for each agent.

The present invention comprises a process for the preparation of a compound of Formula I-VI.
Compounds of the present invention can possess, in general, one or more asymmetric carbon atoms and are thus capable of existing in the form of optical isomers as well as in the form of racemic or non-racemic mixtures thereof. Unless otherwise indicated, the compounds of the present invention, as depicted or named, may exist as the racemate, a single enantiomer, or any uneven (i.e. non 50/50) mixture of enantiomers. The optical isomers can be obtained by resolution of the racemic mixtures according to conventional processes, e.g., by formation of diastereoisomeric salts, by treatment with an optically active acid or base. Examples of appropriate acids are tartaric, diacetyltartaric, dibenzoyltartaric, ditoluoyltartaric, and camphorsulfonic acid and then separation of the mixture of diastereoisomers by crystallization followed by liberation of the optically active bases from these salts. A different process for separation of optical isomers involves the use of a chiral chromatography column, such as, for example, a CHIRAL-AGP column, optimally chosen to maximize the separation of the enantiomers. Still another available method involves synthesis of covalent diastereoisomeric molecules by reacting compounds of the invention with an optically pure acid in an activated form or an optically pure isocyanate. The synthesized diastereoisomers can be separated by conventional means such as chromatography, distillation, crystallization or sublimation, and then hydrolyzed to deliver the enantiomerically pure compound. The optically active compounds of the invention can likewise be obtained by using optically active starting materials. These isomers may be in the form of a free acid, a free base, an ester or a salt.
Compounds of the present invention can possess, in general, tautomeric forms, which are included in the family of compounds in Formula I-VI.
Also included in the family of compounds of Formula I-VI are the pharmaceutically-acceptable salts thereof. The term “pharmaceutically-acceptable salts” embraces salts commonly used to form alkali metal salts and to form addition salts of free acids or free bases. The nature of the salt is not critical, provided that it is pharmaceutically-acceptable. Suitable pharmaceutically-acceptable acid addition salts of compounds of Formula I-VI may be prepared from an inorganic acid or from an organic acid. Examples of such inorganic acids are hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydroiodic, nitric, carbonic, sulfuric and phosphoric acid. Appropriate organic acids may be selected from aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic, arylaliphatic, heterocyclic carboxylic and sulfonic classes of organic acids, example of which are formic, acetic, adipic, butyric, propionic, succinic, glycolic, gluconic, lactic, malic, tartaric, citric, ascorbic, glucuronic, maleic, fumaric, pyruvic, aspartic, glutamic, benzoic, anthranilic, mesylic, 4-hydroxybenzoic, phenylacetic, mandelic, embonic (pamoic), methanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, pantothenic, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonic, toluenesulfonic, sulfanilic, cyclohexylaminosulfonic, camphoric, camphorsulfonic, digluconic, cyclopentanepropionic, dodecylsulfonic, glucoheptanoic, glycerophosphonic, heptanoic, hexanoic, 2-hydroxy-ethanesulfonic, nicotinic, 2-naphthalenesulfonic, oxalic, palmoic, pectinic, persulfuric, 2-phenylpropionic, picric, pivalic propionic, succinic, tartaric, thiocyanic, mesylic, undecanoic, stearic, algenic, β-hydroxybutyric, salicylic, galactaric and galacturonic acid. Suitable pharmaceutically-acceptable base addition salts of compounds of Formula I-VI include metallic salts, such as salts made from aluminum, calcium, lithium, magnesium, potassium, sodium and zinc, or salts made from organic bases including primary, secondary and tertiary amines, substituted amines including cyclic amines, such as caffeine, arginine, diethylamine, N-ethyl piperidine, histidine, glucamine, isopropylamine, lysine, morpholine, N-ethylmorpholine, piperazine, piperidine, triethylamine, trimethylamine. All of these salts may be prepared by conventional means from the corresponding compound of the invention by reacting, for example, the appropriate acid or base with the compound of Formula I-VI.
Also, the basic nitrogen-containing groups can be quaternized with such agents as lower alkyl halides, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl chloride, bromides and iodides; dialkyl sulfates like dimethyl, diethyl, dibutyl, and diamyl sulfates, long chain halides such as decyl, lauryl, myristyl and stearyl chlorides, bromides and iodides, aralkyl halides like benzyl and phenethyl bromides, and others. Water or oil-soluble or dispersible products are thereby obtained.
Examples of acids that may be employed to from pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include such inorganic acids as HCl, H2SO4 and H3PO4 and such organic acids as oxalic acid, maleic acid, succinic acid and citric acid. Other examples include salts with alkali metals or alkaline earth metals, such as sodium, potassium, calcium or magnesium or with organic bases.

Cyano substituted bicylic amines 13 may be prepared in a convergent manner as described in Scheme 4. 5-Oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphth-2-yl carbonitrile 9 is reduced, such as with NaBH4, in a solvent such as THF and MeOH at a temperature between about 0° C. and about 30° C., preferably about RT, to form the 5-hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphth-2-yl carbonitrile 10. The alcohol 10 is converted to the halide 11, such as the chloride, such as by treatment with SOCl2 in a solvent such as CH2Cl2, at a temperature between about 0° C. and about 30° C., preferably about RT. The 5-chloro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphth-2-yl carbonitrile 11 is treated with NaN3 in a solvent such as dry DMF, at a temperature above RT, preferably above about 50° C., even more preferably at about 75° C., to form the 5-azido-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphth-2-yl carbonitrile 12. The azide is hydrogenated, such as with H2 in the presence of a catalyst, such as Pd/C, in the presence of solvent, such as in EtOAc, to form the amine 13. These steps can be used to form analogous cyano substituted bicylic amines.




5-Oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphth-2-yl carbonitrile 9 can be prepared from corresponding alcohols by the methods described in Scheme 5. 6-Hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-2H-naphthalen-1-one 14 is converted to the triflate 15 by treatment with trifluoro-methanesulfonic anhydride in a solvent such as CH2Cl2, in the presence of base, such as NMM, and DMAP, and at a temperature below RT, preferably at a temperature at about 0° C. The triflate 15 is reacted with KCN in the presence of PPh3 and (PPh3)2NiBr2 in a solvent such as 5 degassed CH3CN, a temperature above RT, preferably above about 50° C., even more preferably at about 60° C., to form the cyano compound 9.

Cyano chromans 16 are reduced, such as with Raney nickel in the presence of formic acid, a temperature above RT, preferably above about 75° C., even more preferably at about 100° C., to form the formyl compounds 17. Reductive amination of the formyl compounds 17, such as with NaBH(OAc)3 and an amine, provides the aminomethyl compounds 18 (where RZ is H or alkyl or together with the amine forms a cyclic compound). The compounds can be isolated as a salt or as the free base. These steps can be used to form analogous compounds.




Compounds of Formula I may be prepared in a convergent manner as described in Scheme 7. Cyano chromans 16 are reduced, such as with hydrogen in the presence of a catlayst such as Pd(OH)2, in a solvent, such as MeOH, to form the corresponding aminomethyl compounds 19.




Amino compounds 22 are prepared from the corresponding ketones 20 by the method described in Scheme 8. Treatment of the ketones 20 with hydroxylamine in a solvent such as NaOAc, at a temperature above RT, preferably above about 75° C., even more preferably at reflux, provides the oxime 21. Hydrogenation of the oxime 21, such as in the presence of a catalyst such as Pd/C, provides the amine 22.




Compounds of Formula I may be prepared in a convergent manner as described in Scheme 9. Esters 23 are reduced to the corresponding alcohols 24, such as in the presence of LiBH4, at a temperature above RT, preferably above about 50° C. Derivatization to the mesylate and treatment with an amine provides compounds 25.




In addition compounds of Formula I can be prepared in diasteromerically pure forms using the method described in Scheme 10. Keto-trifalates 15a-c are subjected to Pd mediated carbonylation in a mixture of DMSO and MeOH to afford the ketoesters 26a-c. Enantioselective reduction of the ketone moieties, e.g. using either the CBS (E. J. Corey et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 109, 5551 (1987)) or Noyori. (T. Noyori, et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1995, 117, 2675-2676) protocols affords either enantiomer of the alcohols with an enantiomeric excess of >99%. Either the R or S enantiomer of the amine may be prepared by using either of the enantioselective reduction protocols. Azidation of the resulting secondary alcohol using a method described by Thompson et al. (Journal of Org. Chem. (1993), 58(22), 5886-8.) and LAH reduction affords the enantiopure amino alcohols 29a-c in high yield.




The resulting amino alcohols further elaborated into compounds of Formula I as depicted in Scheme 11, similar to that described in Scheme 6.




Analogs of compounds of Formula II may be prepared as illustrated in Schemes 12-14. Following Boc protection, amino alcohol 29a is converted to its methyl ketone 37 by the three step procedure depicted in scheme 12. Protected 1-amino-6-hydroxymethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-naphthalene 34 is oxidized, such as with MnO2 in an organic solvent, such as CH2Cl2, preferably at a temperature of about RT, to form the aldehyde 35. The aldehyde is alkylated, such as with a Grignard reagent in a solvent such as THF, at a temperature initially below RT, preferably about −30° C. and more preferably at about −78° C., then at about RT, to form the alcohol 36. The alcohol 36 is oxidized, such as with MnO2 as previously described, to form the protected ketone 37. The resulting ketone 37 is deprotected such as with HCl, and converted to compound 41 similar to the method described in Scheme 11.




Ether linked analogs such as 45, are prepared by the convergent synthesis depicted in scheme 13. The 6-hydroxy-1-tetralone 14 is reacted with an amine, such as N,N-dimethylethanolamine, preferably in the presence of PPh3 and DEAD at a temperature preferably between about 0° C. and about RT to form the 6-(2-dimethylamino-ethoxy)-3,4-dihydro-2H-naphthalen-1-one 42. the 6-(2-dimethylamino-ethoxy)-3,4-dihydro-2H-naphthalen-1-one 42 is reacted with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and base, such as Et3N. The reaction is heated above RT, preferably at reflux to form the oxime 43. Hydrogenation of the oxime 43, such as with Pd/C and H2 provides the amine 44 which can be coupled with the appropriate acid to form the desired compound 45.







β-Phenethyl amine and γ-phenpropyl amine derivatives of compounds of Formula II may be prepared by the methods illustrated in Scheme 14. The 6-hydroxy-1-tetralone was protected with triflic anhydride and the temperature was preferably maintained between 0 C and RT, to form triflate 15. Treatment of the triflate 15 with (R)-2-methyl-CBS-oxazaborolidine and BMS and trifluoro-methanesulfonic acid at a temperature between 0 C and RT, provides the alcohol 46. The alcohol 46 was converted to the azide by addition of DBU and dppa, at a temperature between 0 C and RT.
Addition of PPh3 to the azide 47 provides the amine 48, which can be coupled, as described above, with the appropriate acid to form amide 49. Reaction with the amide 49 palladium(II)acetate, dppf, base (e.g. Et3N) and allyl alcohol, heated to a temperature above RT, preferably between about 50° C. and about 100° C., more preferably at about 80° C. provides the vinyl alcohol 50. Treatment of the 1-hydroxymethyl-vinyl compound 50 with methanesulfonyl chloride provides Mesyl derivative 51, which upon treatment with an amine, such as pyrrolidine, provides the vinyl amine 52.




Following the protocols described above the tether length for all of the amino compounds of Formulas I and II may be varied from 1-4 carbons. The alcohol 29b can be converted to the carbonitrile 52 such as with treatment with P(Ph)3, DEAD and acetone cyanohydrin. The nitrile 52 can be coupled with the acid, such as with HATU, EDC and DIEA. The (7-cyanomethyl-4-chroman 53 is hydrogenated, such as with palladium catalyst in an alcohol, e.g. MeOH, to form the alkyl amine 54 of the present invention. The alkyl amine can be substituted using standard methods to make the substituted amines 55 (where Rn is alkyl, substituted alkyl, and the like).




Methods for preparing additional compounds of formulas I and II are illustrated in scheme 16. The cyano alcohol 56 can be treated with DMAP, base (e.g. NEt3), and PBDPSCl to form the protected alcohol 57. The protected alcohol 56 is aminated, such as with Me3Al, at a temperature below RT and preferably at about 0 C, to yield the amidine 58. Formation of the 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-quinazolone 60 is achieved such as by reaction of amidine 58 and 2-dimethylaminomethylene-cyclohexane-1,3-dione 59 at a temperature above RT, preferably above about 50 C and more preferably at about 80 C. 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-quinazolone 60 is reduced such as with NaBH4 to give the alcohol 61. The alcohol 61 is treated with DPPA and DBU to form the azide derivative which is reduced to form the amine 62. The amine 62 is deprotected, such as with TBAF to form the desired intermediate 63.







Compounds of the invention 72 can be prepared as described in Scheme 18. The protected amino bicyclic compound 68 was treated with is alkylated, such as with vinyltributyltin in the presence of PPh3, a base such as Et3N and a palladium catalyst, e.g. Pd2(dba)3. The reaction is maintained at a temperature above RT, preferably in a range between about 50 C and about 100 C, more preferably at about 80 C, more preferably in a microwave. After deprotection, such as with TFA in the case the amine is BOC protected, the free amine 69b can be coupled as described above. Oxidation of the vinyl compound 70, such as with OsO4 produces aldehyde 71. Reductive amination, such as with NaHB(OAc)3 in the presence of an amine provides compounds 72.




Compounds with alkylated sulfonamides 74 can be prepared as described in Scheme 19 Treatment of the free sulfonamide 32 with iodoalkyl compounds, e.g. MeI, in the presence of base such as Na2CO3 provides the alkylated intermediate 73 which can be further treated as described above to provide compounds 74.




Alkylamine compounds can be prepared by the synthesis described in Scheme 19. The amino-carbonitrile 75 is protected, such as with Boc2O, to afford 76. Alkylation of the amine 76, such as treatment with base, e.g. NaH, and iodoaklyl, such as MeI, at a temperature preferably at RT, yields the alkylamine 77. Treatment of 77 with DIBALH and an acid such as glacial HOAc provides the aldehyde 78. Reductive amination, similar to that previously described affords the amine 79, which upon deprotection yields the intermediate 80.




Alternatively, compounds with longer tethers are prepared by the method described in Scheme 20. (5-Amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)-methanol 81 is protected, such as with (Boc)2O to provide 82. The protected amine 82 is oxidized, using methods described in other schemes above, to form the aldehyde 83. The cyano-vinyl compound 84 is prepared via treatment with diethyl cyanophosphate and sodium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide at a temperature between about −78° C. and RT. Deprotection yields the free amine 85 which can be coupled as described above, to provide the intermediate 86. Reduction, such as with Pt catalyzed treatment with H2 yields the aminopropyl compound 87 of the present invention.
Additional analogs of any of the templates in described in Schemes 1-20 may be prepared using the procedures analogous to those described for above and illustrated in the examples below. In addition elaboration of all intermediates in the above schemes to compounds of Formula I may be accomplished using known by those skilled in the arts of organic and medicinal chemistry.
If one or more other functional groups, for example carboxy, hydroxy, amino, or mercapto, are or need to be protected in a compound of Formulas I-VI and I′-VI′, because they should not take part in the reaction, these are such groups as are usually used in the synthesis of peptide compounds, and also of cephalosporins and penicillins, as well as nucleic acid derivatives and sugars.
The protecting groups may already be present in precursors and should protect the functional groups concerned against unwanted secondary reactions, such as acylations, etherifications, esterifications, oxidations, solvolysis, and similar reactions. It is a characteristic of protecting groups that they lend themselves readily, i.e. without undesired secondary reactions, to removal, typically by solvolysis, reduction, photolysis or also by enzyme activity, for example under conditions analogous to physiological conditions, and that they are not present in the end-products. The specialist knows, or can easily establish, which protecting groups are suitable with the reactions mentioned above and hereinafter.
The protection of such functional groups by such protecting groups, the protecting groups themselves, and their removal reactions are described for example in standard reference works, such as J. F. W. McOmie, “Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry”, Plenum Press, London and New York 1973, in T. W. Greene, “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, Wiley, New York 1981, in “The Peptides”; Volume 3 (editors: E. Gross and J. Meienhofer), Academic Press, London and New York 1981, in “Methoden der organischen Chemie” (Methods of organic chemistry), Houben Weyl, 4th edition, Volume 15/1, Georg Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart 1974, in H.-D. Jakubke and H. Jescheit, “Aminosäuren, Peptide, Proteine” (Amino acids, peptides, proteins), Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, Deerfield Beach, and Basel 1982, and in Jochen Lehmann, “Chemie der Kohlenhydrate: Monosaccharide und Derivate” (Chemistry of carbohydrates: monosaccharides and derivatives), Georg Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart 1974.
In the additional process steps, carried out as desired, functional groups of the starting compounds which should not take part in the reaction may be present in unprotected form or may be protected for example by one or more of the protecting groups mentioned above under “protecting groups”. The protecting groups are then wholly or partly removed according to one of the methods described there.
Salts of a compound of formula I with a salt-forming group may be prepared in a manner known per se. Acid addition salts of compounds of formula I may thus be obtained by treatment with an acid or with a suitable anion exchange reagent. A salt with two acid molecules (for example a dihalogenide of a compound of formula I) may also be converted into a salt with one acid molecule per compound (for example a monohalogenide); this may be done by heating to a melt, or for example by heating as a solid under a high vacuum at elevated temperature, for example from 130-170° C., one molecule of the acid being expelled per molecule of a compound of formula I.
Salts can usually be converted to free compounds, e.g. by treating with suitable basic agents, for example with alkali metal carbonates, alkali metal hydrogen carbonates, or alkali metal hydroxides, typically potassium carbonate or sodium hydroxide.
All process steps described here can be carried out under known reaction conditions, preferably under those specifically mentioned, in the absence of or usually in the presence of solvents or diluents, preferably such as are inert to the reagents used and able to dissolve these, in the absence or presence of catalysts, condensing agents or neutralizing agents, for example ion exchangers, typically cation exchangers, for example in the He form, depending on the type of reaction and/or reactants at reduced, normal, or elevated temperature, for example in the range from about −100° C. to about 190° C., preferably from about −80° C. to about 150° C., for example at about −80 to about 60° C., at RT, at about −20 to about 40° C. or at the boiling point of the solvent used, under atmospheric pressure or in a closed vessel, where appropriate under pressure, and/or in an inert atmosphere, for example, under argon or nitrogen.
Salts may be present in all starting compounds and transients, if these contain salt-forming groups. Salts may also be present during the reaction of such compounds, provided the reaction is not thereby disturbed.
In certain cases, typically in hydrogenation processes, it is possible to achieve stereoselective reactions, allowing for example easier recovery of individual isomers.
The solvents from which those can be selected which are suitable for the reaction in question include, for example, H2O, esters, typically lower alkyl-lower alkanoates, e.g. EtOAc, ethers, typically aliphatic ethers, e.g. Et2O, or cyclic ethers, e.g. THF, liquid aromatic hydrocarbons, typically benzene or toluene, alcohols, typically MeOH, EtOH or 1-propanol, IPA, nitriles, typically CH3CN, halogenated hydrocarbons, typically CH2Cl2, acid amides, typically DMF, bases, typically heterocyclic nitrogen bases, e.g. pyridine, carboxylic acids, typically lower alkanecarboxylic acids, e.g. HOAc, carboxylic acid anhydrides, typically lower alkane acid anhydrides, e.g. acetic anhydride, cyclic, linear, or branched hydrocarbons, typically cyclohexane, hexane, or isopentane, or mixtures of these solvents, e.g. aqueous solutions, unless otherwise stated in the description of the process.
The invention relates also to those forms of the process in which one starts from a compound obtainable at any stage as a transient and carries out the missing steps, or breaks off the process at any stage, or forms a starting material under the reaction conditions, or uses said starting material in the form of a reactive derivative or salt, or produces a compound obtainable by means of the process according to the invention and processes the said compound in situ. In the preferred embodiment, one starts from those starting materials which lead to the compounds described above as preferred.
The compounds of Formula I-VI and I′-VI′, including their salts, are also obtainable in the form of hydrates, or their crystals can include for example the solvent used for crystallization (present as solvates).
New starting materials and/or intermediates, as well as processes for the preparation thereof, are likewise the subject of this invention. In the preferred embodiment, such starting materials are used and reaction conditions so selected as to enable the preferred compounds to be obtained.
Starting materials of the invention, are known, are commercially available, or can be synthesized in analogy to or according to methods that are known in the art.
In the preparation of starting materials, existing functional groups which do not participate in the reaction should, if necessary, be protected. Preferred protecting groups, their introduction and their removal are described above or in the examples.
All remaining starting materials are known, capable of being prepared according to known processes, or commercially obtainable; in particular, they can be prepared using processes as described in the examples.

Biological Testing
Human Bradykinin B1 Receptor and human B2 Receptor In Vitro Binding Assay Supporting Methods:
Preparation of membranes expressing human B1 and human B2 bradykinin receptor. Membranes were prepared from CHO-d−AQN cells stably transfected with human bradykinin B1 receptor cDNA. For large-scale production of membranes, cells were grown in 100 L suspension culture to 1.0E8 cells/mL then harvested using the Viafuge at continuous centrifugation of 1000 g. For pilot studies, cells were grown in 2 L spinner culture and harvested by centrifugation (1900 g, 10 min, 4° C.). The cell pellet was washed with PBS, centrifuged (1900 g, 10 min, 4° C.), then the cells resuspended in lysis buffer (25 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 5 mM EDTA, 5 mM EGTA, 3 mM MgCl2, 10% (w/v) sucrose, Complete Protease Inhibitor tablets (EDTA-free)) to a density of 14% w/v for passage through a microfluidizer (Microfluidics 110S, 3 passes, 6,000 psi). The resulting cell lysate was centrifuged (1900 g, 10 min, 4° C.), and the crude particulate fraction isolated by centrifugation (142,000 g, 1 h, 4° C.) of the low-speed supernatant. The resulting pellet was resuspended in 1⁄3 the original lysis buffer volume, homogenized, and recentrifuged as above. The membrane pellet was resuspended by homogenization in storage buffer (25 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 3 mM MgCl2, 10% (w/v) sucrose and Complete Protease Inhibitor tablets (EDTA-free)). Single-use aliquots were made and flash-frozen in liquid N2 prior to storage at −80° C.
Membranes containing human bradykinin B2R were purchased from Receptor Biology (now Perkin Elmer Life Sciences). They were derived from a CHO-K1 line stably expressing the human B2 receptor developed by Receptor Biology and subsequently purchased by Amgen. For some studies, membranes were prepared in-house from this same cell line using the method described for human B1 receptor membranes, except cells were grown in roller bottles and harvested using Cellmate.
Radioligand Binding Assay for human B1 and human B2 bradykinin receptor. Human B1 receptor binding assay was performed in 96-well polypropylene plates (Costar 3365) by adding 50 μL [3H]des-arg10 kallidin (NET1064; Perkin Elmer Life Sciences) to 10 μL test compound diluted in 90 μl assay buffer (24 mM TES, pH 6.8, 1 mM 1,10 o-phenanthroline, 0.3% BSA, 0.5 mM Pefabloc SC, 2 μg/ml aprotinin, 5 μg/mL leupeptin, and 0.7 μg/mL pepstatin A). Membranes (50 μL) were added last. [3H] des-arg10 kallidin was diluted from stock into assay buffer to yield a final concentration of −0.3 nM in the assay but was adjusted as needed to ensure a concentration at or below the Kd determined for each batch of receptor membranes. Nonspecific binding was defined with 2 μM des-Arg10Leu9 kallidin. Membranes were diluted in assay buffer to yield a final concentration of 0.068 nM hB1 receptor in the assay. Compounds were solubilized in either DMSO or ddH2O, plated into polypropylene plates (Costar 3365), then serially diluted in either DMSO or dilution buffer (20 mM Hepes, pH 7.6, 0.1% BSA) to yield a final concentration of either 5% DMSO or no DMSO in the assay. The assay mixture was incubated with shaking for 1 hr at RT and then filtered through GF/C plates presoaked in 0.5% polyethyleneimine (Unifilter; Perkin Elmer Life Sciences) using a Filtermate 96-well harvester (Perkin Elmer Life Sciences). Filter plates were rapidly washed 6 times with 200 μl ice-cold buffer (50 mM Tris, pH 7.4), dried in a vacuum oven at 55C for 15-20 min, backed, and 40 μL per well of Microscint 20 was added. The plates were sealed and activity read on Topcount (Perkin Elmer Life Sciences) using a count time of 3 min per channel.
For human B2 bradykinin receptor, the same procedure was followed with the following exceptions: [3H] bradykinin (NET706; Perkin Elmer Life Sciences) was used at a final concentration of  ̃0.2 nM and non specific binding was defined with 2 μM bradykinin. Human B2 receptor concentration was 0.068 nM final in the assay.
Data analysis. Data was analyzed in XLFit with the four-parameter logistic y=A+((B-A)/(1+((C/x)^D))) and fit with the Levenburg-Marquardt algorithm. Raw cpm were converted to percent of control values prior to analysis (POC=((compound cpm−nonspecfic cpm)/(no-compound cpm−nonspecific cpm)*100)). Ki values were determined from the IC50 using the Cheng-Prusoff equation and Kd values determined by direct saturation binding of the radioligands.
The compounds of examples 1, 1a, 1d-1f, 1 h, 3, 3b-3f, 3h-3j, 3l, 4a, 5a, 8, 13, and 15, have binding Ki's to the hB1 receptor at a level below 100 nm. The compounds of examples 1-15, have binding Ki's to the hB2 receptor at a level above 1 μM.
In vitro B1-Inhibition Activity
A. In vitro Assay of human B1 Receptor Function using Calcium Flux:
Activation of the Gq linked B1 receptor results in an increase in intracellular calcium. The calcium sensitive photoprotein aequorin can, therefore, be used as an indicator of B1 receptor activation. Aequorin is a 21-kDa photoprotein that forms a bioluminescent complex when linked to the chromophore cofactor coelenterazine. Following the binding of calcium to this complex, an oxidation reaction of coelenterazine results in the production of apoaequorin, coelenteramide, CO2, and light that can be detected by conventional luminometry.
A stable CHO D-/hB1/Aequorin cell line was established and the cells were maintained in suspension in spinner bottles containing a 1:1 ratio of DMEM and HAM F12 (Gibco 11765-047), high glucose (Gibco 11965-084), 10% Heat Inactivated Dialyzed serum (Gibco 26300-061), 1X Non-Essential Amino acids (Gibco 11140-050), 1X Glutamine-Pen-Strep (Gibco 10378-016), and Hygromycin, 300 μg/mL (Roche 843555). 15-24 h prior to the luminometer assay, 25,000 cells/well (2.5E6 cells/10 mL/plate) were plated in 96-well black-sided clear bottom assay plates (Costar #3904).
Media was removed from the wells and replaced with 60 μl of serum free HAM's F12 with 30 mM HEPES (pH 7.5) and 15μM coelenterazine (Coelenterazine h Luciferin #90608 from Assay Designs). The plates were incubated for 1.5-2 h. Ten point IC50 compound plates containing 1:3 or 1:5 dilutions of antagonist compounds and an agonist activator plate (20 nM des-Arg10-Kallidin final concentration, EC80) were prepared using Ham's F12 with 30 mM HEPES, pH 7.5. Following coelenterazine incubation, an automated flash-luminometer platform was used to dispense the B1 antagonist compounds (dissolved in DMSO and diluted with buffer to the desired concentration (final DMSO concentration <1% DMSO)) to the cell plate, a CCD camera situated underneath the cell plate took 12 images of the cell plate at 5 second intervals to determine if there was any agonist activity with the compounds. The hB1 agonist, des-Arg10-Kallidin, was added to the cell plate and another 12 images were recorded to determine the IC50 of the antagonist(s). The compounds of Examples 1, 1e-1f, 1h, 3, 3b, 3d, 3e, 3f, 3h, 3i, 3j, 3l, 5a, 8, 13, 15, a-i, k-p, t, x-y, aa-ae, ah-an, au-ba, bd-bg, bl-bm, bo, bq-br, bt, by-bz, cb-cv, cv-cz, db, de-dh, dj, dl-dr, dt, dw-dz, eb-em, er-ex, ez-fd, ff-fh, fn-fr, fu, fw, fz-ga, 166-176, 180, 182, 184, 185, 191, 193-196, 198-199, 206-207, 209c, 209f-209h, 215, 218a-218b, 218d-218f, 218h, 218j-218k, 218m, 218o, 218q-218r, 220a-c, 220e, 220f-220k, and 220m-220n have binding IC50's to hB1 receptor function at a level below 100 nm.
The compounds of Examples 1, 1f, 5a, 8, a, g-h, 1, n-o, t, aa, ad-ae, am, aw, ay, ba, be-bg, bm, by-bz, cb, ce-cj, cl, co-ct, cx-cy, de, dh, dj, do, dq, dx-dy, eb, ed-ej, em, ex, fb, fg-fh, 166, 168-170, 173, 175, 176, 185, 198, 218d, 218j, 218q-218r, 220a and 220g have binding IC50's to hB1 receptor function at a level below 10 nm.
B. In Vitro Assay of hB2 Receptor Function using Calcium Flux:
The intracellular calcium flux induced by hB2 receptor activation was analyzed using a hB2 recombinant cell line (CHO-K1) purchased from PerkinElmer (Catalog Number: RBHB2C000EA) on a fluorometric imaging plate reader (FLIPR). The cells were cultured in T225 flask containing Ham's F12 Nutrient Mixture (Invitrogen Corp., Cat # 11765-047), 10% Fetal Clone II Bovine Serum (HyClone, Cat # SH3006603), 1 mM Sodium pyruvate (100 mM stock, Invitrogen Corp., Cat# 12454-013), and 0.4 mg/mL Geneticin (G418; 50 mg/mL active geneticin, Invitrogen, Cat# 10131-207). Culture medium was changed every other day. 24 h prior to the FLIPR assay, the hB2/CHO cells were washed once with PBS (Invitrogen, Cat. #) and 10 mL of Versene (1:5000, Invitrogen, Cat# 15040-066) was added to each flask. After 5 min incubation at 37° C., Versene was removed and cells were detached from the flask and resuspended in culture medium. Cells were counted and 25,000 cells/well were plated in 96-well black-sided clear bottom assay plates (Costar #3904). Cells were incubated in a 37° C. CO2 incubator overnight.
The media was aspirated from the cells and replaced with 65 μL of dye-loading buffer. The loading buffer was prepared by diluting a stock solution of 0.5 mM Fluo-4 AM (Molecular Probes, dissolved in DMSO containing 10% [w/v] pluronic acid) to a concentration of 1 μM in Clear Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) containing 0.1% BSA, 20 mM HEPES, and 2.5 mM probenecid. The cells were dye-loaded for 1 h at RT. The excess dye was removed by washing the cells 2× with assay buffer. The assay buffer consists of Hank's Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) containing 20 mM HEPES, 0.1% BSA, and 2.5 mM probenecid. After the wash cycles, a volume of 100 μL was left in each well, and the plate was ready to be assayed in the FLIPR System. Single point (10 μM final concentration) POC antagonist compound plates or ten point IC50 compound plates containing 1:3 or 1:5 dilutions of antagonist compounds (dissolved in DMSO and diluted with buffer to the desired concentration (final DMSO concentration <1% DMSO)) and an agonist activator plate (0.3 nM bradykinin final concentration, EC80) were prepared using assay buffer. The cell plate and the compound plates were loaded onto the FLIPR and during the assay, fluorescence readings are taken simultaneously from all 96 wells of the cell plate. Ten 1-second readings were taken to establish a stable baseline for each well, then 25 μL from the B1 antagonist plate was rapidly (50 μL/sec.) added. The fluorescence signal was measured in 1-second (1 min) followed by 6-second (2 min) intervals for a total of 3 min to determine if there is any agonist activity with the compounds. The B2 agonist, bradykinin, was added to the cell plate and another 3 min were recorded to determine the percent inhibition at 10 μM (POC plates) or the IC50 of the antagonist.
C. Cell and Tissue based In Vitro Assays of hB1 Receptor Binding:
These studies established the antagonist activity of several compounds at the bradykinin B1 receptors in in vitro cell-based and isolated organ assays.
1. Rabbit endothelial cell B1-specific PGI2 secretion Assay
2. B1 and B2 umblical vein Assay
D. In vitro B1-Inhibition Activity
The effectiveness of the compounds as inhibitors of B1 activity (i.e., B1 “neutralization”) can be evaluated by measuring the ability of each compound to block B1 stimulated CGRP and substance P release and calcium signaling in Dorsal Root Ganglion (DRG) neuronal cultures.
Dorsal Root Ganglion Neuronal Cultures. Dorsal root ganglia are dissected one by one under aseptic conditions from all spinal segments of embryonic 19-day old (E19) rats that are surgically removed from the uterus of timed-pregnant, terminally anesthetized Sprague-Dawley rats (Charles River, Wilmington, Mass.). DRG are collected in ice-cold L-15 media (GibcoBRL, Grand Island, N.Y.) containing 5% heat inactivated horse serum (GibcoBRL), and any loose connective tissue and blood vessels are removed. The DRG are rinsed twice in Ca2+- and Mg2+-free Dulbecco's phosphate buffered saline (DPBS), pH 7.4 (GibcoBRL). The DRG are dissociated into single cell suspension using a papain dissociation system (Worthington Biochemical Corp., Freehold, N.J.). Briefly, DRG are incubated in a digestion solution containing 20 U/mL of papain in Earle's Balanced Salt Solution (EBSS) at 37° C. for fifty minutes. Cells are dissociated by trituration through fire-polished Pasteur pipettes in a dissociation medium consisting of MEM/Ham's F12, 1:1, 1 mg/mL ovomucoid inhibitor and 1 mg/mL ovalbumin, and 0.005% deoxyribonuclease I (DNase). The dissociated cells are pelleted at 200×g for five min and re-suspended in EBSS containing 1 mg/mL ovomucoid inhibitor, 1 mg/mL ovalbumin and 0.005% DNase. Cell suspension is centrifuged through a gradient solution containing 10 mg/mL ovomucoid inhibitor, 10 mg/ml ovalbumin at 200×g for six min to remove cell debris, then filtered through a 88 μM nylon mesh (Fisher Scientific, Pittsburgh, Pa.) to remove any clumps. Cell number is determined with a hemocytometer, and cells are seeded into poly-ornithine 100 μg/mL (Sigma, St. Louis, Mo.) and mouse 1 aminin 1 μg/mL (GibcoBRL)-coated 96-well plates at 10×103 cells/well in complete medium. The complete medium consists of minimal essential medium (MEM) and Ham's F12, 1:1, penicillin (100 U/ml), streptomycin (100 μg/mL), and 10% heat inactivated horse serum (GibcoBRL). The cultures are kept at 37° C., 5% CO2 and 100% humidity. For controlling the growth of non-neuronal cells, 5-fluoro-2′-deoxyuridine (75 μM) and uridine (180 μM) are included in the medium. 2 h after plating, cells are treated with recombinant human β-B1 or recombinant rat β-B1 at a concentration of 10 ng/mL (0.38 nM). Positive controls comprising serial-diluted anti-B1 antibody (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, Minn.) are applied to each culture plate. Compounds are added at ten concentrations using 3.16-fold serial dilutions. All samples are diluted in complete medium before being added to the cultures. Incubation time is generally around 40 h prior to measurement of VR1 expression.

Measurement of VR1 Expression in DRG Neurons. Cultures are fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde in Hanks' balanced salt solution for 15 min, blocked with Superblock (Pierce, Rockford, Ill.), and permeabilized with 0.25% Nonidet P-40 (Sigma) in Tris.HCl (Sigma)-buffered saline (TBS) for 1 h at RT. Cultures are rinsed once with TBS containing 0.1% Tween 20 (Sigma) and incubated with rabbit anti-VR1 IgG (prepared at Amgen) for 1.5 h at RT, followed by incubation of Eu-labeled anti-rabbit second antibody (Wallac Oy, Turku, Finland) for 1 h at RT. Washes with TBS (3×5 min with slow shaking) are applied after each antibody incubation. Enhance solution (150 μL/well, Wallac Oy) is added to the cultures. The fluorescence signal is measured in a time-resolved fluorometer (Wallac Oy). VR1 expression in samples treated with the compounds is determined by comparing to a standard curve of B1 titration from 0-1000 ng/mL. Percent inhibition (compared to maximum possible inhibition) of B1 effect on VR1 expression in DRG neurons is determined by comparing to controls that are not B1-treated.

In Vivo Antinociceptive Activity in Rat and Monkey Pain models

A. Rat Neuropathic Pain Model. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (200 g) are anesthetized with isoflurane inhalant anesthesia and the left lumbar spinal nerves at the level of L5 and L6 are tightly ligated (4-0 silk suture) distal to the dorsal root ganglion and prior to entrance into the sciatic nerve, as first described by Kim and Chung (Kim, S. H.; Chung, J. M. An experimental model for peripheral neuropathy produced by segmental spinal nerve ligation in the rat. Pain 50:355-363, (1992)). The incisions are closed and the rats are allowed to recover. This procedure results in mechanical (tactile) allodynia in the left hind paw as assessed by recording the pressure at which the affected paw (ipsilateral to the site of nerve injury) was withdrawn from graded stimuli (von Frey filaments ranging from 4.0 to 148.1 mN) applied perpendicularly to the plantar surface of the paw (between the footpads) through wire-mesh observation cages. A paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) was determined by sequentially increasing and decreasing the stimulus strength and analyzing withdrawal data using a Dixon non-parametric test, as described by Chaplan et al. (Chaplan, S. R.; Bach, F. W.; Pogrel, J. W.; Chung, J. M.; Yaksh, T. L. Quantitative assessment of tactile allodynia in the rat paw. J. Neurosci. Meth, 53:55-63 (1994)).
Normal rats and sham surgery rats (nerves isolated but not ligated) withstand at least 148.1 mN (equivalent to 15 g) of pressure without responding. Spinal nerve ligated rats respond to as little as 4.0 mN (equivalent to 0.41 g) of pressure on the affected paw. Rats are included in the study only if they did not exhibit motor dysfunction (e.g., paw dragging or dropping) and their PWT was below 39.2 mN (equivalent to 4.0 g). At least seven days after surgery rats are treated with compounds (usually a screening dose of 60 mg/kg) or control diluent (PBS) once by s.c. injection and PWT was determined each day thereafter for 7 days.
B. Rat CFA Inflammatory Pain Model. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (200 g) are lightly anesthetized with isoflurane inhalant anesthesia and the left hindpaw is injected with complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA), 0.15 mL. This procedure results in mechanical (tactile) allodynia in the left hind paw as assessed by recording the pressure at which the affected paw is withdrawn from graded stimuli (von Frey filaments ranging from 4.0 to 148.1 mN) applied perpendicularly to the plantar surface of the paw (between the footpads) through wire-mesh observation cages. PWT is determined by sequentially increasing and decreasing the stimulus strength and analyzing withdrawal data using a Dixon non-parametric test, as described by Chaplan et al. (1994). Rats are included in the study only if they do not exhibit motor dysfunction (e.g., paw dragging or dropping) or broken skin and their PWT is below 39.2 mN (equivalent to 4.0 g). At least seven days after CFA injection rats are treated with compounds (usually a screening dose of 60 mg/kg) or control solution (PBS) once by s.c. injection and PWT is determined each day thereafter for 7 days. Average paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) is converted to percent of maximum possible effect (% MPE) using the following formula: % MPE=100*(PWT of treated rats −PWT of control rats)/(15−PWT of control rats). Thus, the cutoff value of 15 g (148.1 mN) is equivalent to 100% of the MPE and the control response is equivalent to 0% MPE.
At the screening dose of 60 mg/kg, compounds in vehicle are expected to produce an antinociceptive effect with a PD relationship.
B. Green Monkey LPS Inflammation Model. The effectiveness of the compounds as inhibitors of B1 activity are evaluated in Male green monkeys (Cercopithaecus aethiops St Kitts) challenged locally with B1 agonists essentially as described by deBlois and Horlick (British Journal of Pharmacology. 132:327-335 (2002), which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety).
In order to determine whether compounds of the present invention inhibit B1 induced oedema the studies described below are conducted on male green monkeys (Cercopithaecus aethiops St Kitts) at the Caribbean Primates Ltd. experimental farm (St Kitts, West Indies). Procedures are reviewed and accepted by the Animal Care Committees of the CR-CHUM (Montreal, Canada) and of Caribbean Primates Ltd. (St Kitts, West Indies). Animals weighing 6.0±0.5 kg (n=67) were anaesthetized (50 mg ketamine kg−1) and pretreated with a single intravenous injection of LPS (90 μg kg−1) or saline (1 ml) via the saphenous vein.
1. Inflammation Studies
Kinin-induced oedema is evaluated by the ventral skin fold assay (Sciberras et al., 1987). Briefly, anaesthetized monkeys were injected with captopril (1 mg kg−1 30 min before assay). A single subcutaneous injection of dKD, BK or the vehicle (2 mM amastatin in 100 μL Ringer's lactate) is given in the ventral area and the increase in thickness of skin folds is monitored for 30-45 min using a calibrated caliper. The results are expressed as the difference between the skin fold thickness before and after the subcutaneous injection. Captopril and amastatin are used to reduce degradation of kinins at the carboxyl- and amino-terminus, respectively.
Antagonist Schild Analysis
The dose-response relationship for dKD (1-100 nmol)-induced oedema is determined at 24 h post-LPS in the absence or presence of different concentrations of antagonist. BK (30 nmol) is used as a positive control.
Antagonst Time Course
The time course of inhibition by antagonist is determined at 4, 24 and 48 h, 72 and/or 96 h after single bolus administration. BK (30 nmol) is used as a positive control.
Drugs
Ketamine hydrochloride, LPS, amastatin and captopril are from Sigma (MO, U.S.A.). All peptides are from Phoenix Pharmaceuticals (CA, U.S.A.).
Statistics
Values are presented as mean±standard error of the mean (s.e. mean). In edema studies, the pre-injection thickness of the skin folds was subtracted from the values after subcutaneous challenge. Curve fitting and EC50 calculations were obtained using the Delta Graph 4.0 software for Apple Computers. Data were compared by two-way analysis of variance followed by unpaired, one tail Student's t-test with Bonferroni correction. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Formulations
Also embraced within this invention is a class of pharmaceutical compositions comprising the active compounds of Formula I-VI in association with one or more non-toxic, pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers and/or diluents and/or adjuvants (collectively referred to herein as “carrier” materials) and, if desired, other active ingredients. The active compounds of the present invention may be administered by any suitable route, preferably in the form of a pharmaceutical composition adapted to such a route, and in a dose effective for the treatment intended. The compounds and compositions of the present invention may, for example, be administered orally, mucosally, topically, rectally, pulmonarily such as by inhalation spray, or parentally including intravascularly, intravenously, intraperitoneally, subcutaneously, intramuscularly intrasternally and infusion techniques, in dosage unit formulations containing conventional pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, adjuvants, and vehicles.
The pharmaceutically active compounds of this invention can be processed in accordance with conventional methods of pharmacy to produce medicinal agents for administration to patients, including humans and other mammals.
For oral administration, the pharmaceutical composition may be in the form of, for example, a tablet, capsule, suspension or liquid. The pharmaceutical composition is preferably made in the form of a dosage unit containing a particular amount of the active ingredient. Examples of such dosage units are tablets or capsules. For example, these may contain an amount of active ingredient from about 1 to 2000 mg, preferably from about 1 to 500 mg or 5 to 1000 mg. A suitable daily dose for a human or other mammal may vary widely depending on the condition of the patient and other factors, but, once again, can be determined using routine methods.
The amount of compounds which are administered and the dosage regimen for treating a disease condition with the compounds and/or compositions of this invention depends on a variety of factors, including the age, weight, sex and medical condition of the subject, the type of disease, the severity of the disease, the route and frequency of administration, and the particular compound employed. Thus, the dosage regimen may vary widely, but can be determined routinely using standard methods. A daily dose of about 0.01 to 500 mg/kg, preferably between about 0.1 and about 50 mg/kg, and more preferably about 0.1 and about 20 mg/kg body weight may be appropriate. The daily dose can be administered in one to four doses per day.
For therapeutic purposes, the active compounds of this invention are ordinarily combined with one or more adjuvants appropriate to the indicated route of administration. If administered per os, the compounds may be admixed with lactose, sucrose, starch powder, cellulose esters of alkanoic acids, cellulose alkyl esters, talc, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, magnesium oxide, sodium and calcium salts of phosphoric and sulfuric acids, gelatin, acacia gum, sodium alginate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and/or polyvinyl alcohol, and then tableted or encapsulated for convenient administration. Such capsules or tablets may contain a controlled-release formulation as may be provided in a dispersion of active compound in hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose.
In the case of psoriasis and other skin conditions, it may be preferable to apply a topical preparation of compounds of this invention to the affected area two to four times a day.
Formulations suitable for topical administration include liquid or semi-liquid preparations suitable for penetration through the skin (e.g., liniments, lotions, ointments, creams, or pastes) and drops suitable for administration to the eye, ear, or nose. A suitable topical dose of active ingredient of a compound of the invention is 0.1 mg to 150 mg administered one to four, preferably one or two times daily. For topical administration, the active ingredient may comprise from 0.001% to 10% w/w, e.g., from 1% to 2% by weight of the formulation, although it may comprise as much as 10% w/w, but preferably not more than 5% w/w, and more preferably from 0.1% to 1% of the formulation.
When formulated in an ointment, the active ingredients may be employed with either paraffinic or a water-miscible ointment base. Alternatively, the active ingredients may be formulated in a cream with an oil-in-water cream base. If desired, the aqueous phase of the cream base may include, for example at least 30% w/w of a polyhydric alcohol such as propylene glycol, butane-1,3-diol, mannitol, sorbitol, glycerol, polyethylene glycol and mixtures thereof. The topical formulation may desirably include a compound which enhances absorption or penetration of the active ingredient through the skin or other affected areas. Examples of such dermal penetration enhancers include DMSO and related analogs.
The compounds of this invention can also be administered by a transdermal device. Preferably transdermal administration will be accomplished using a patch either of the reservoir and porous membrane type or of a solid matrix variety. In either case, the active agent is delivered continuously from the reservoir or microcapsules through a membrane into the active agent permeable adhesive, which is in contact with the skin or mucosa of the recipient. If the active agent is absorbed through the skin, a controlled and predetermined flow of the active agent is administered to the recipient. In the case of microcapsules, the encapsulating agent may also function as the membrane.
The oily phase of the emulsions of this invention may be constituted from known ingredients in a known manner. While the phase may comprise merely an emulsifier, it may comprise a mixture of at least one emulsifier with a fat or an oil or with both a fat and an oil. Preferably, a hydrophilic emulsifier is included together with a lipophilic emulsifier which acts as a stabilizer. It is also preferred to include both an oil and a fat. Together, the emulsifier(s) with or without stabilizer(s) make-up the so-called emulsifying wax, and the wax together with the oil and fat make up the so-called emulsifying ointment base which forms the oily dispersed phase of the cream formulations. Emulsifiers and emulsion stabilizers suitable for use in the formulation of the present invention include Tween 60, Span 80, cetostearyl alcohol, myristyl alcohol, glyceryl monostearate, sodium lauryl sulfate, glyceryl distearate alone or with a wax, or other materials well known in the art.
The choice of suitable oils or fats for the formulation is based on achieving the desired cosmetic properties, since the solubility of the active compound in most oils likely to be used in pharmaceutical emulsion formulations is very low. Thus, the cream should preferably be a non-greasy, non-staining and washable product with suitable consistency to avoid leakage from tubes or other containers. Straight or branched chain, mono- or dibasic alkyl esters such as di-isoadipate, isocetyl stearate, propylene glycol diester of coconut fatty acids, isopropyl myristate, decyl oleate, isopropyl palmitate, butyl stearate, 2-ethylhexyl palmitate or a blend of branched chain esters may be used. These may be used alone or in combination depending on the properties required. Alternatively, high melting point lipids such as white soft paraffin and/or liquid paraffin or other mineral oils can be used.
Formulations suitable for topical administration to the eye also include eye drops wherein the active ingredients are dissolved or suspended in suitable carrier, especially an aqueous solvent for the active ingredients. The active ingredients are preferably present in such formulations in a concentration of 0.5 to 20%, advantageously 0.5 to 10% and particularly about 1.5% w/w.
Formulations for parenteral administration may be in the form of aqueous or non-aqueous isotonic sterile injection solutions or suspensions. These solutions and suspensions may be prepared from sterile powders or granules using one or more of the carriers or diluents mentioned for use in the formulations for oral administration or by using other suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The compounds may be dissolved in water, polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, ethanol, corn oil, cottonseed oil, peanut oil, sesame oil, benzyl alcohol, sodium chloride, tragacanth gum, and/or various buffers. Other adjuvants and modes of administration are well and widely known in the pharmaceutical art. The active ingredient may also be administered by injection as a composition with suitable carriers including saline, dextrose, or water, or with cyclodextrin (ie. Captisol), cosolvent solubilization (ie. propylene glycol) or micellar solubilization (ie. Tween 80).
The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterally acceptable diluent or solvent, for example as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose any bland fixed oil may be employed, including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid find use in the preparation of injectables.
For pulmonary administration, the pharmaceutical composition may be administered in the form of an aerosol or with an inhaler including dry powder aerosol.
Suppositories for rectal administration of the drug can be prepared by mixing the drug with a suitable non-irritating excipient such as cocoa butter and polyethylene glycols that are solid at ordinary temperatures but liquid at the rectal temperature and will therefore melt in the rectum and release the drug.
The pharmaceutical compositions may be subjected to conventional pharmaceutical operations such as sterilization and/or may contain conventional adjuvants, such as preservatives, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifiers, buffers etc. Tablets and pills can additionally be prepared with enteric coatings. Such compositions may also comprise adjuvants, such as wetting, sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents.
The foregoing is merely illustrative of the invention and is not intended to limit the invention to the disclosed compounds. Variations and changes which are obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be within the scope and nature of the invention which are defined in the appended claims.
From the foregoing description, one skilled in the art can easily ascertain the essential characteristics of this invention, and without departing from the spirit and scope thereof, can make various changes and modifications of the invention to adapt it to various usages and conditions.
All mentioned references, patents, applications and publications, are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety, as if here written.
