## Background
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application is a U.S. National Phase application under 35 U.S.C. §371 of PCT Application No. PCT/US2008/007205, filed Jun. 9, 2008 which claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 from U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/934,515, filed Jun. 13, 2007.


This invention relates to compounds for use in therapeutic treatment of the human body. In particular, it provides triazole derivatives useful for treating diseases associated with the deposition of β-amyloid peptide in the brain, such as Alzheimer's disease, or of preventing or delaying the onset of dementia associated with such diseases.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of dementia. Its diagnosis is described in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th ed., published by the American Psychiatric Association (DSM-IV). It is a neurodegenerative disorder, clinically characterized by progressive loss of memory and general cognitive function, and pathologically characterized by the deposition of extracellular proteinaceous plaques in the cortical and associative brain regions of sufferers. These plaques mainly comprise fibrillar aggregates of β-amyloid peptide (Aβ). Aβ is formed from amyloid precursor protein (APP) via separate intracellular proteolytic events involving the enzymes β-secretase and γ-secretase. Variability in the site of the proteolysis mediated by γ-secretase results in Aβ of varying chain length, e.g. Aβ(1-38), Aβ(1-40) and Aβ(1-42). N-terminal truncations such as Aβ(4-42) are also found in the brain, possibly as a result of variability in the site of proteolysis mediated by (3-secretase. For the sake of convenience, expressions such as “Aβ(1-40)” and “Aβ(1-42)” as used herein are inclusive of such N-terminal truncated variants. After secretion into the extracellular medium, Aβ forms initially-soluble aggregates which are widely believed to be the key neurotoxic agents in AD (see Gong et al, PNAS, 100 (2003), 10417-22), and which ultimately result in the insoluble deposits and dense neuritic plaques which are the pathological characteristics of AD.
Other dementing conditions associated with deposition of Aβ in the brain include cerebral amyloid angiopathy, hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis, Dutch-type (HCHWA-D), multi-infarct dementia, dementia pugilistica and Down syndrome.
Various interventions in the plaque-forming process have been proposed as therapeutic treatments for AD (see, for example, Hardy and Selkoe, Science, 297 (2002), 353-6). One such method of treatment that has been proposed is that of blocking or attenuating the production of Aβ for example by inhibition of β- or γ-secretase. It has also been reported that inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3), in particular inhibition of GSK-3α, can block the production of Aβ (see Phiel et al, Nature, 423 (2003), 435-9). Other proposed methods of treatment include administering a compound which blocks the aggregation of Aβ, and administering an antibody which selectively binds to Aβ.
However, recent reports (Pearson and Peers, J. Physiol., 575.1 (2006), 5-10) suggest that Aβ may exert important physiological effects independent of its role in AD, implying that blocking its production may lead to undesirable side effects. Furthermore, γ-secretase is known to act on several different substrates apart from APP (e.g. notch), and so inhibition thereof may also lead to unwanted side effects. There is therefore an interest in methods of treating AD that do not suppress completely the production of Aβ, and do not inhibit the action of γ-secretase.
One such proposed treatment involves modulation of the action of γ-secretase so as to selectively attenuate the production of Aβ(1-42). This results in preferential secretion of the shorter chain isoforms of Aβ, which are believed to have a reduced propensity for self-aggregation and plaque formation, and hence are more easily cleared from the brain, and/or are less neurotoxic. Compounds showing this effect include certain non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and their analogues (see WO 01/78721 and US 2002/0128319 and Weggen et al Nature, 414 (2001) 212-16; Morihara et al, J. Neurochem., 83 (2002), 1009-12; and Takahashi et al, J. Biol. Chem., 278 (2003), 18644-70). Compounds which modulate the activity of PPARα and/or PPARδ are also reported to have the effect of lowering Aβ(1-42) (WO 02/100836). NSAID derivatives capable of releasing nitric oxide have been reported to show improved anti-neuroinflammatory effects and/or to reduce intracerebral Aβ deposition in animal models (WO 02/092072; Jantzen et al, J. Neuroscience, 22 (2002), 226-54). US 2002/0015941 teaches that agents which potentiate capacitative calcium entry activity can lower Aβ(1-42).
Further classes of compounds capable of selectively attenuating Aβ(1-42) production are disclosed in WO 2005/054193, WO 2005/013985, WO 2006/008558, WO 2005/108362, WO 2006/043064. WO 2007/054739, WO 2007/110667, WO 2007/116228 and WO 2007/125364.
US 2006/0004013 and WO 2006/046575 disclose cinnamide derivatives which inhibit production of Aβ. The compounds are said to reduce the production of both Aβ(1-40) and Aβ(1-42). Related cinnamide derivatives are disclosed in US 2007/0117798, US 2007/0219181, WO 2007/135969 and WO 2007/135970.
Further compounds which are claimed to modulate Aβ levels are disclosed in WO 2004/110350.
The compounds of the present invention selectively attenuate production of Aβ(1-42).

As used herein, the expression “C1-xalkyl” where x is an integer greater than 1 refers to straight-chained and branched alkyl groups wherein the number of constituent carbon atoms is in the range 1 to x. Particular alkyl groups are methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl and t-butyl. Derived expressions such as “C2-6alkenyl”, “hydroxyC1-6alkyl”, “heteroarylC1-6alkyl”, “C2-6alkynyl” and “C1-6alkoxy” are to be construed in an analogous manner.
The expressions “polyfluoroalkyl” and “polyfluoroalkoxy” refer to alkyl and alkoxy groups respectively in which one or more of the hydrogen atoms is replaced by fluorine, and includes embodiments of such groups in which all the hydrogens are replaced by fluorine. Examples thus include CH2F, CHF2, CF3, CF2CF3, CH2CF3 and OCF3.
The expression “C3-xcycloalkyl” where x is an integer greater than 3 refers to saturated cyclic hydrocarbon groups containing from 3 to x ring carbons. Where the value of x so permits, polycyclic systems containing fused rings and/or bridged bicyclic structures are included. Examples include cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, decahydronaphthyl, bicyclo[2.2.2]octyl and adamantyl. “C3-xcycloalkenyl” similarly refers to nonaromatic unsaturated cyclic hydrocarbon groups, such as cyclopentenyl and cyclohexenyl.
The term “heterocyclic” refers to ring systems in which at least one ring atom is selected from N, O and S. Unless indicated otherwise, the term includes both saturated and unsaturated systems, including aromatic systems. Heterocyclic groups may be bonded via a ring carbon or a ring nitrogen, unless otherwise indicated. “Heteroaryl” refers to a heterocyclic ring that is aromatic.
The term “halogen” as used herein includes fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine, of which fluorine and chlorine are preferred unless otherwise indicated.
For use in medicine, the compounds of formula I may be in the form of pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Other salts may, however, be useful in the preparation of the compounds of formula I or of their pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of this invention include acid addition salts which may, for example, be formed by mixing a solution of the compound according to the invention with a solution of a pharmaceutically acceptable acid such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, methanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, succinic acid, acetic acid, benzoic acid, oxalic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, carbonic acid or phosphoric acid. Alternatively, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt may be formed by neutralisation of a carboxylic acid group with a suitable base. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts thus formed include alkali metal salts such as sodium or potassium salts; ammonium salts; alkaline earth metal salts such as calcium or magnesium salts; and salts formed with suitable organic bases, such as amine salts (including pyridinium salts) and quaternary ammonium salts.
It is to be understood that all the stereoisomeric forms encompassed by formula I, both optical and geometrical, fall within the scope of the invention, singly or as mixtures in any proportion.
In formula I, W completes an imidazole, triazole or pyrazole ring, said ring necessarily being connected to the rest of the molecule via one of its ring nitrogens. Most suitably W completes an imidazole or triazole ring, in particular 1H-imidazol-1-yl or 1H-imidazol-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl. R1a and R1b independently represent H, C1-6alkyl or CF3, in particular H, methyl or CF3. In a particular embodiment at least one of R1a and R1b is other than H. Specific examples of groups completed by W, R1a and R1b include 4-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl, 2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl, 2,4-dimethyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl, 4-trifluoromethyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl, 1H-imidazol-1-yl, 3-methyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl and 4-methyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl. In a particular embodiment W, R1a and R1b complete a 4-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl group.
Y1 and Y2 each independently represents N or CR2 where R2 represents H, halogen, CN, C1-6alkyl, C1-6alkoxy or phenoxy, said alkyl, alkoxy and phenoxy optionally having up to 3 fluorine substituents or a cyclopropyl substituent, but Y1 and Y2 do not both represent N. Very suitably, one of Y1 and Y2 represents CH and the other represents CR2 and R2 very suitably represents H, F, Cl, CN, methyl, methoxy, 2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy, cyclopropylmethoxy or phenoxy, in particular methoxy. In a particular embodiment Y2 represent CH.
In the compounds of formula I, X is connected to the 1,2,3-triazole ring by a linker —(CR3CR4)m— where m is 0 or an integer in the range 1-6 and R3 and R4 are as defined previously, or the linker has the structure (i), (ii) or (iii):




Most suitably, m is 0 or an integer in the range 1-3, or the linker has the structure (i), (ii) or (iii), but when X is connected directly to the triazole ring (i.e. when m=0) or by a linker having the structure (i), (ii) or (iii), X must represent R5 which is other than N-heterocyclyl.

When m is other than 0, each R3 and R4 is independently H, C1-6alkyl, F, CO2Ra or phenyl, with the proviso that not more than one R3 or R4 group may represent CO2Ra or phenyl; or R3 and R4 attached to the same carbon atom may together represent ═O (i.e. complete a carbonyl group); or R3 and R4 attached to the same carbon atom may together complete a carbocycle of 3 to 6 atoms. In a particular embodiment, when m is 2 or more, not more than one CR3R4 group represents CO and not more than one CR3R4 group represents a carbocycle. Furthermore, when m is 1 or more, the CR3R4 group bonded to the triazole ring is preferably not CO, and when X is SR5 or Si(R8)3, the adjacent CR3R4 group is preferably not CO.
Specific embodiments of the linker (CR3R4)m include a bond, CH2, CH2CH2, CH2CH2CH2, CF2, CH2CO, CF2CO, CH(CH3), CH(Ph)CO, CHFCO, (1,1-cyclobutanediyl)CO, CH(CO2H)CH2CH2, CH(CO2CH3)CH2C(CH3)2 and the structures (i), (ii) and (iii). In a particular embodiment, (CR3R4)m represents CH2, CF2, CH2CO or CF2CO. In another particular embodiment, (CR3R4)n, represents a bond. In another particular embodiment, (CR3R4)m represents one of the structures (i), (ii) and (iii).
X is selected from H, R5, OR6, OCOR5, SR5, NR6R7, NR7COR5, NR7CO2R8 and Si(R8)3 where R5-R8 are as defined previously and described in detail below. In a particular embodiment, X is selected from R5, OR5, SR5 and NR6R7.

Within this sub-embodiment, particularly suitable alkyl groups include those containing up to 6 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl, isobutyl and t-butyl. Within this sub-embodiment, particularly suitable cycloalkyl and cycloalkenyl groups include cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cyclooctyl, adamantyl, 9-fluorenyl, cyclohexen-1-yl, 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-yl and bicyclo[4.2.0]octa-1,3,5-trien-7-yl.

In a second sub-embodiment, R5 represents phenyl which optionally forms part of a polycyclic system containing up to 3 additional rings, each of which is independently 5-, 6- or 7-membered and is independently carbocyclic or heterocyclic. Thus, a phenyl group represented by R5 may optionally be linked by covalent bonds to one or more 5-, 6- or 7-membered carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings, and/or may be fused to one or more such rings. Said 5-, 6- or 7-membered carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings may themselves be fused and/or covalently to one or more further 5-, 6- or 7-membered carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings, subject to the total number of rings being 4 or less. Heterocyclic rings typically comprise not more than 3 ring atoms selected from N, O and S, the remainder being carbon. Said further rings may be saturated or unsaturated, including aromatic. Examples of 5-, 6- and 7-membered rings to which the phenyl may be fused or covalently linked include benzene, cyclopentane, cyclohexane, pyridine, thiadiazole, oxadiazole, pyrazole, thiophene, pyrrole, 1,4-dioxepane and 5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-one.

In a third sub-embodiment, R5 represents 4-, 5-, 6- or 7-membered heterocyclic which optionally forms part of a polycyclic system containing up to 3 additional rings, each of which independently comprises 5, 6 or 7 members and is independently carbocyclic or heterocyclic. Thus, a 4-, 5-, 6- or 7-membered heterocyclic ring represented by R5 may optionally be linked by covalent bonds to one or more additional 5-, 6- or 7-membered carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings, and/or may be fused to one or more such rings. Said 5-, 6- or 7-membered carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings may themselves be fused and/or covalently to one or more further 5-, 6- or 7-membered carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings, subject to the total number of rings being 4 or less. Said further rings may be saturated or unsaturated, including aromatic. Heterocyclic rings represented by R5 or forming part of R5 typically comprise not more than 3 ring atoms selected from N, O and S, the remainder being carbon.

Examples of covalently linked heterocyclic systems represented by R5 include (1-phenyl)tetrazol-5-yl, (1-phenyl)pyrazol-5-yl, and pyridazin-3-one which bears a phenyl substituent in one or more of the 2-, 4- and 6-positions.
Within this third sub-embodiment there is a class of compounds in which R5 represents a 5-, 6- or 7-membered lactam ring in which one of the ring atoms, other than the lactam nitrogen, is optionally O, N or S, said lactam ring optionally being fused to a ring system selected from benzene, naphthalene, biphenyl, C5-10cycloalkyl and 5- or 6-membered heteroaryl; and said lactam ring optionally being covalently linked to up to 2 rings selected from phenyl, cyclopentane, cyclohexane and cyclohexene, the total number of rings in the group represented by R5 being not more than 4.

Within this class of the third sub-embodiment a particular example of a lactam ring system represented by R5 is 1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2H-1-benzazepin-2-one.
In all three of the sub-embodiments detailed above, the group R5 optionally bears up to 5 substituents independently selected from halogen, CN, NO2, OH, oxo, C1-4alkyl, C2-4alkenyl, polyfluoroC1-4alkyl, C3-4cycloalkyl, C3-6cycloalkylC1-4alkyl, C1-4alkoxy, C1-4alkoxyC1-4alkyl, polyfluoroC1-4alkoxy, C1-4alkylcarbonyl, polyfluoroC1-4alkylcarbonyl, C1-4alkoxycarbonyl, C1-4alkylthio, C1-4alkylsulfonyl, phenylsulfonyl, benzoyl, benzyl, naphthylmethyl, pyridylmethyl, SO2NR2, CONR2, NR2 and R2N—C1-4alkyl where each R is independently H or C1-4alkyl or the two R groups together with the nitrogen to which they are attached complete a ring selected from azetidine, pyrrolidine, piperidine, piperazine and morpholine, and where the aromatic portions of said phenylsulfonyl, benzoyl, benzyl, naphthylmethyl and pyridylmethyl optionally bear up to 3 substituents selected from halogen, C1-4alkyl, C1-4alkoxy and CF3.

Within the subset of compounds represented by formula IV and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts or hydrates thereof, there is a class of compounds which are represented by formula IV(a):




and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts or hydrates thereof; wherein

A fourth subset of the compounds of the invention consists of the compounds of formula V:




and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts or hydrates thereof; wherein:

L′ represents a bond or a linker selected from:




each R13 independently represents H, halogen, C1-4alkyl, polyfluoroC1-4alkyl, C1-4alkoxy or polyfluoroC1-4alkoxy;
and W, Y1, Y2, R1a and R1b have the same definitions and preferred identities as before.
In one embodiment of the fourth subset, the R13 groups are the same and are selected from H, methyl, F and Cl.
Compounds of formula I may be prepared by reaction of an azide of formula X—(CR3R4)m—N3 (1) with an alkyne of formula (2):




where W, Y1, Y2, R1a, R1b, R3, R4, m and X have the same meanings as before. The reaction takes place at ambient temperature in aqueous ethanol or DMF in the presence of copper(II) sulphate and sodium ascorbate.

Azides (1) may be prepared from the corresponding halides by reaction with sodium azide in ethanol or DMF. In the case where m is 0 and X is aromatic, the azide may be prepared by diazotisation of the appropriate aromatic amine followed by treatment with sodium azide. Where they are not commercially available, the relevant halides are obtainable by routes described in the literature or minor variations thereof. Procedures for the halogenation of lactams are described later herein.
Aldehydes (2) are obtainable by reaction of an imidazole, triazole or pyrazole (3) with a fluoro-substituted arylaldehyde (4):




where W, Y1, Y2, R1a and R1b have the same meanings as before. The reaction takes place in DMF with heating in the presence of a base such as potassium carbonate.

It will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art that individual compounds in accordance with formula I may be converted to further compounds of formula I using the normal techniques of organic synthesis such as oxidation, reduction, alkylation, condensation and coupling. For example, a compound of formula IV or IV(a) in which R9 is H, may be N-alkylated, N-acylated or N-sulfonylated by conventional techniques to provide the corresponding compounds in which R9 is other than H. As an example there may be cited the treatment of a compound of formula IV or IV(a) in which R9 is H with strong base (such as sodium hydride or caesium carbonate) followed by trifluoroethyl triflate to provide the N-trifluoroethyl derivative. Similar procedures may be carried out on compounds of formula III in which R6 or R7 is H.
Where they are not themselves commercially available, the starting materials for the synthetic schemes described above are available by straightforward chemical modifications of commercially available materials.
Certain compounds according to the invention may exist as optical isomers due to the presence of one or more chiral centres or because of the overall asymmetry of the molecule. Such compounds may be prepared in racemic form, or individual enantiomers may be prepared either by enantiospecific synthesis or by resolution. The novel compounds may, for example, be resolved into their component enantiomers by standard techniques such as preparative HPLC, or the formation of diastereomeric pairs by salt formation with an optically active acid, such as di-p-toluoyl-D-tartaric acid and/or di-p-toluoyl-L-tartaric acid, followed by fractional crystallisation and regeneration of the free base. The novel compounds may also be resolved by formation of diastereomeric esters or amides, followed by chromatographic separation and removal of the chiral auxiliary. Alternatively, racemic intermediates in the preparation of compounds of formula I may be resolved by the aforementioned techniques, and the desired enantiomer used in subsequent steps.
During any of the above synthetic sequences it may be necessary and/or desirable to protect sensitive or reactive groups on any of the molecules concerned. This may be achieved by means of conventional protecting groups, such as those described in Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry, ed. J. F. W. McOmie, Plenum Press, 1973; and T. W. Greene & P. G. M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, John Wiley & Sons, 3rd ed., 1999. The protecting groups may be removed at a convenient subsequent stage using methods known from the art.
The compounds of the invention have the useful property of modifying the action of γ-secretase on amyloid precursor protein so as to selectively reduce the formation of the 1-42 isoform of Aβ, and hence find use in the development of treatments for diseases mediated by Aβ(1-42), in particular diseases involving deposition of β-amyloid in the brain.
According to a further aspect of the invention there is provided the use of a compound according to formula I as defined above, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or hydrate thereof, for the manufacture of a medicament for treatment or prevention of a disease associated with the deposition of β-amyloid in the brain.
The disease associated with deposition of Aβ in the brain is typically Alzheimer's disease (AD), cerebral amyloid angiopathy, HCHWA-D, multi-infarct dementia, dementia pugilistica or Down syndrome, preferably AD.
In a further aspect, the invention provides the use of a compound of Formula I as defined above, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or hydrate thereof, in the manufacture of a medicament for treating, preventing or delaying the onset of dementia associated with Alzheimer's disease, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, HCHWA-D, multi-infarct dementia, dementia pugilistica or Down syndrome.
The invention also provides a method of treating or preventing a disease associated with deposition of Aβ in the brain comprising administering to a patient in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula I as defined above or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or hydrate thereof.
In a further aspect, the invention provides a method of treating, preventing or delaying the onset of dementia associated with Alzheimer's disease, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, HCHWA-D, multi-infarct dementia, dementia pugilistica or Down syndrome comprising administering to a patient in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula I as defined above or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or hydrate thereof.
The compounds of Formula I modulate the action of γ-secretase so as to selectively attenuate production of the (1-42) isoform of Aβ without significantly lowering production of the shorter chain isoforms such as Aβ(1-40). This results in secretion of Aβ which has less tendency to self-aggregate and form insoluble deposits, is more easily cleared from the brain, and/or is less neurotoxic. Therefore, a further aspect of the invention provides a method for retarding, arresting or preventing the accumulation of Aβ in the brain comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula I as defined above or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
Because the compounds of formula I modulate the activity of γ-secretase, as opposed to suppressing said activity, it is believed that the therapeutic benefits described above will be obtained with a reduced risk of side effects, e.g. those that might arise from a disruption of other signalling pathways (e.g. Notch) which are controlled by γ-secretase.
In one embodiment of the invention, the compound of Formula I is administered to a patient suffering from AD, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, HCHWA-D, multi-infarct dementia, dementia pugilistica or Down syndrome, preferably AD.
In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the compound of Formula I is administered to a patient suffering from mild cognitive impairment or age-related cognitive decline. A favourable outcome of such treatment is prevention or delay of the onset of AD. Age-related cognitive decline and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are conditions in which a memory deficit is present, but other diagnostic criteria for dementia are absent (Santacruz and Swagerty, American Family Physician, 63 (2001), 703-13). (See also “The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders”, Geneva: World Health Organisation, 1992, 64-5). As used herein, “age-related cognitive decline” implies a decline of at least six months' duration in at least one of: memory and learning; attention and concentration; thinking; language; and visuospatial functioning and a score of more than one standard deviation below the norm on standardized neuropsychologic testing such as the MMSE. In particular, there may be a progressive decline in memory. In the more severe condition MCI, the degree of memory impairment is outside the range considered normal for the age of the patient but AD is not present. The differential diagnosis of MCI and mild AD is described by Petersen et al., Arch. Neurol., 56 (1999), 303-8. Further information on the differential diagnosis of MCI is provided by Knopman et al, Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 78 (2003), 1290-1308. In a study of elderly subjects, Tuokko et al (Arch. Neurol., 60 (2003) 577-82) found that those exhibiting MCI at the outset had a three-fold increased risk of developing dementia within 5 years.
Grundman et al (J. Mol. Neurosci., 19 (2002), 23-28) report that lower baseline hippocampal volume in MCI patients is a prognostic indicator for subsequent AD. Similarly, Andreasen et al (Acta Neurol. Scand, 107 (2003) 47-51) report that high CSF levels of total tau, high CSF levels of phospho-tau and lowered CSF levels of Aβ42 are all associated with increased risk of progression from MCI to AD.
Within this embodiment, the compound of Formula I is advantageously administered to patients who suffer impaired memory function but do not exhibit symptoms of dementia. Such impairment of memory function typically is not attributable to systemic or cerebral disease, such as stroke or metabolic disorders caused by pituitary dysfunction. Such patients may be in particular people aged 55 or over, especially people aged 60 or over, and preferably people aged 65 or over. Such patients may have normal patterns and levels of growth hormone secretion for their age. However, such patients may possess one or more additional risk factors for developing Alzheimer's disease. Such factors include a family history of the disease; a genetic predisposition to the disease; elevated serum cholesterol; and adult-onset diabetes mellitus.
In a particular embodiment of the invention, the compound of Formula I is administered to a patient suffering from age-related cognitive decline or MCI who additionally possesses one or more risk factors for developing AD selected from: a family history of the disease; a genetic predisposition to the disease; elevated serum cholesterol; adult-onset diabetes mellitus; elevated baseline hippocampal volume; elevated CSF levels of total tau; elevated CSF levels of phospho-tau; and lowered CSF levels of Aβ(1-42),
A genetic predisposition (especially towards early onset AD) can arise from point mutations in one or more of a number of genes, including the APP, presenilin-1 and presenilin-2 genes. Also, subjects who are homozygous for the ε4 isoform of the apolipoprotein E gene are at greater risk of developing AD.
The patient's degree of cognitive decline or impairment is advantageously assessed at regular intervals before, during and/or after a course of treatment in accordance with the invention, so that changes therein may be detected, e.g. the slowing or halting of cognitive decline. A variety of neuropsychological tests are known in the art for this purpose, such as the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) with norms adjusted for age and education (Folstein et al., J. Psych. Res., 12 (1975), 196-198, Anthony et al., Psychological Med., 12 (1982), 397-408; Cockrell et al., Psychopharmacology, 24 (1988), 689-692; Crum et al., J. Am. Med. Assoc'n. 18 (1993), 2386-2391). The MMSE is a brief, quantitative measure of cognitive status in adults. It can be used to screen for cognitive decline or impairment, to estimate the severity of cognitive decline or impairment at a given point in time, to follow the course of cognitive changes in an individual over time, and to document an individual's response to treatment. Another suitable test is the Alzheimer Disease Assessment Scale (ADAS), in particular the cognitive element thereof (ADAS-cog) (See Rosen et al., Am. J. Psychiatry, 141 (1984), 1356-64).
The compounds of Formula I are typically used in the form of pharmaceutical compositions comprising one or more compounds of Formula I and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Accordingly, in a further aspect the invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula I as defined above, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or hydrate thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Preferably these compositions are in unit dosage forms such as tablets, pills, capsules, powders, granules, sterile parenteral solutions or suspensions, metered aerosol or liquid sprays, drops, ampoules, transdermal patches, auto-injector devices or suppositories; for oral, parenteral, intranasal, sublingual or rectal administration, or for administration by inhalation or insufflation. The principal active ingredient typically is mixed with a pharmaceutical carrier, e.g. conventional tableting ingredients such as corn starch, lactose, sucrose, sorbitol, talc, stearic acid, magnesium stearate and dicalcium phosphate, or gums, dispersing agents, suspending agents or surfactants such as sorbitan monooleate and polyethylene glycol, and other pharmaceutical diluents, e.g. water, to form a homogeneous preformulation composition containing a compound of the present invention, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. When referring to these preformulation compositions as homogeneous, it is meant that the active ingredient is dispersed evenly throughout the composition so that the composition may be readily subdivided into equally effective unit dosage forms such as tablets, pills and capsules. This preformulation composition is then subdivided into unit dosage forms of the type described above containing from 0.1 to about 500 mg of the active ingredient of the present invention. Typical unit dosage forms contain from 1 to 100 mg, for example 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50 or 100 mg, of the active ingredient. Tablets or pills of the composition can be coated or otherwise compounded to provide a dosage form affording the advantage of prolonged action. For example, the tablet or pill can comprise an inner dosage and an outer dosage component, the latter being in the form of an envelope over the former. The two components can be separated by an enteric layer which serves to resist disintegration in the stomach and permits the inner component to pass intact into the duodenum or to be delayed in release. A variety of materials can be used for such enteric layers or coatings, such materials including a number of polymeric acids and mixtures of polymeric acids with such materials as shellac, cetyl alcohol and cellulose acetate.
The liquid forms in which the compositions useful in the present invention may be incorporated for administration orally or by injection include aqueous solutions, liquid- or gel-filled capsules, suitably flavoured syrups, aqueous or oil suspensions, and flavoured emulsions with edible oils such as cottonseed oil, sesame oil, coconut oil or peanut oil, as well as elixirs and similar pharmaceutical vehicles. Suitable dispersing or suspending agents for aqueous suspensions include synthetic and natural gums such as tragacanth, acacia, alginate, dextran, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, methylcellulose, poly(ethylene glycol), poly(vinylpyrrolidone) or gelatin.
For treating or preventing Alzheimer's disease, a suitable dosage level is about 0.01 to 250 mg/kg per day, preferably about 0.01 to 100 mg/kg per day, and more preferably about 0.05 to 50 mg/kg of body weight per day, of the active compound. The compounds may be administered on a regimen of 1 to 4 times per day. In some cases, however, a dosage outside these limits may be used.
The compounds of Formula I optionally may be administered in combination with one or more additional compounds known to be useful in the treatment or prevention of AD or the symptoms thereof. Such additional compounds thus include cognition-enhancing drugs such as acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (e.g. donepezil and galanthamine), NMDA antagonists (e.g. memantine) or PDE4 inhibitors (e.g. ArifloTM and the classes of compounds disclosed in WO 03/018579, WO 01/46151, WO 02/074726 and WO 02/098878). Such additional compounds also include cholesterol-lowering drugs such as the statins, e.g. simvastatin. Such additional compounds similarly include compounds known to modify the production or processing of Aβ in the brain (“amyloid modifiers”), such as compounds which inhibit the secretion of Aβ (including γ-secretase inhibitors, β-secretase inhibitors, and GSK-3α inhibitors), compounds which inhibit the aggregation of Aβ, and antibodies which selectively bind to Aβ. Such additional compounds also include growth hormone secretagogues, as disclosed in WO 2004/110443.
In this embodiment of the invention, the amyloid modifier may be a compound which inhibits the secretion of Aβ, for example an inhibitor of γ-secretase (such as those disclosed in WO 01/90084, WO 02/30912, WO 01/70677, WO 03/013506, WO 02/36555, WO 03/093252, WO 03/093264, WO 03/093251, WO 03/093253, WO 2004/039800, WO 2004/039370, WO 2005/030731, WO 2005/014553, WO 2004/089911, WO 02/081435, WO 02/081433, WO 03/018543, WO 2004/031137, WO 2004/031139, WO 2004/031138, WO 2004/101538, WO 2004/101539 and WO 02/47671), or a (3-secretase inhibitor (such as those disclosed in WO 03/037325, WO 03/030886, WO 03/006013, WO 03/006021, WO 03/006423, WO 03/006453, WO 02/002122, WO 01/70672, WO 02/02505, WO 02/02506, WO 02/02512, WO 02/02520, WO 02/098849 and WO 02/100820), or any other compound which inhibits the formation or release of Aβ including those disclosed in WO 98/28268, WO 02/47671, WO 99/67221, WO 01/34639, WO 01/34571, WO 00/07995, WO 00/38618, WO 01/92235, WO 01/77086, WO 01/74784, WO 01/74796, WO 01/74783, WO 01/60826, WO 01/19797, WO 01/27108, WO 01/27091, WO 00/50391, WO 02/057252, US 2002/0025955 and US2002/0022621, and also including GSK-3 inhibitors, particularly GSK-3α inhibitors, such as lithium, as disclosed in Phiel et al, Nature, 423 (2003), 435-9.
Alternatively, the amyloid modifier may be a compound which inhibits the aggregation of Aβ or otherwise attenuates is neurotoxicicity. Suitable examples include chelating agents such as clioquinol (Gouras and Beal, Neuron, 30 (2001), 641-2) and the compounds disclosed in WO 99/16741, in particular that known as DP-109 (Kalendarev et al, J. Pharm. Biomed. Anal., 24 (2001), 967-75). Other inhibitors of Aβ aggregation suitable for use in the invention include the compounds disclosed in WO 96/28471, WO 98/08868 and WO 00/052048, including the compound known as ApanTM (Praecis); WO 00/064420, WO 03/017994, WO 99/59571 (in particular 3-aminopropane-1-sulfonic acid, also known as tramiprosate or AlzhemedTM); WO 00/149281 and the compositions known as PTI-777 and PTI-00703 (ProteoTech); WO 96/39834, WO 01/83425, WO 01/55093, WO 00/76988, WO 00/76987, WO 00/76969, WO 00/76489, WO 97/26919, WO 97/16194, and WO 97/16191. Further examples include phytic acid derivatives as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,847,082 and inositol derivatives as taught in US 2004/0204387.
Alternatively, the amyloid modifier may be an antibody which binds selectively to Aβ. Said antibody may be polyclonal or monoclonal, but is preferably monoclonal, and is preferably human or humanized. Preferably, the antibody is capable of sequestering soluble Aβ from biological fluids, as described in WO 03/016466, WO 03/016467, WO 03/015691 and WO 01/62801. Suitable antibodies include humanized antibody 266 (described in WO 01/62801) and the modified version thereof described in WO 03/016466.
As used herein, the expression “in combination with” requires that therapeutically effective amounts of both the compound of Formula I and the additional compound are administered to the subject, but places no restriction on the manner in which this is achieved. Thus, the two species may be combined in a single dosage form for simultaneous administration to the subject, or may be provided in separate dosage forms for simultaneous or sequential administration to the subject. Sequential administration may be close in time or remote in time, e.g. one species administered in the morning and the other in the evening. The separate species may be administered at the same frequency or at different frequencies, e.g. one species once a day and the other two or more times a day. The separate species may be administered by the same route or by different routes, e.g. one species orally and the other parenterally, although oral administration of both species is preferred, where possible. When the additional compound is an antibody, it will typically be administered parenterally and separately from the compound of Formula I.


EXPERIMENTAL
The ability of the compounds of Formula I to selectively inhibit production of Aβ(1-42) may be determined using the following assay:
Cell-Based γ-Secretase Assay
Human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells overexpressing the direct γ-secretase substrate SPA4CT were induced with sodium butyrate (10 mM) for 4 hours prior to plating. Cells were plated at 35,000 cells/well/100 μl in 96-well plates in phenol red-free MEM/10% FBS, 50 mM HEPES, 1% Glutamine and incubated for 2 hrs at 37° C., 5% CO2.
Compounds for testing were diluted into Me2SO to give a ten point dose-response curve. Typically 10 μl of these diluted compounds in Me2SO were further diluted into 182 μl dilution buffer (phenol red-free MEM/10% FBS, 50 mM HEPES, 1% Glutamine) and 10 μl of each dilution was added to the cells in 96-well plates (yielding a final Me2SO concentration of 0.5%). Appropriate vehicle and inhibitor controls were used to determine the window of the assay.
After incubation overnight at 37° C., 5% CO2, 25 μl and 50 μl media were transferred into a standard Meso avidin-coated 96-well plate for detection of Aβ(40) and Aβ(42) peptides, respectively. 25 μl Meso Assay buffer (PBS, 2% BSA, 0.2% Tween-20) was added to the Aβ(40) wells followed by the addition of 25 μl of the respective antibody premixes to the wells:
Aβ(40) premix: 1 μg/ml ruthenylated G2-10 antibody, 4 μg/ml; and biotinylated 4G8 antibody diluted in Origen buffer
Aβ(42) premix: 1 μg/ml ruthenylated G2-11 antibody, 4 μg/ml; and biotinylated 4G8 antibody diluted in Origen buffer
(Biotinylated 4G8 antibody supplied by Signet Pathology Ltd; G2-10 and G2-11 antibodies supplied by Chemicon)
After overnight incubation of the assay plates on a shaker at 4° C., the Meso Scale Sector 6000 Imager was calibrated according to the manufacturer's instructions. After washing the plates 3 times with 150 μl of PBS per well, 150 μl Meso Scale Discovery read buffer was added to each well and the plates were read on the Sector 6000 Imager according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Cell viability was measured in the corresponding cells after removal of the media for the Aβ assays by a colorimetric cell proliferation assay (CellTiter 96TM AQ assay, Promega) utilizing the bioreduction of MTS (Owen's reagent) to formazan according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, 5 μl of 10×MTS/PES was added to the remaining 50 μl of media before returning to the incubator. The optical density was read at 495 nm after  ̃4 hours.
LD50 and IC50 values for inhibition of Aβ(40) and Aβ(42) were calculated by nonlinear regression fit analysis using the appropriate software (eg. Excel fit). The total signal and the background were defined by the corresponding Me2SO and inhibitor controls.
The compounds listed in the following examples all gave IC50 values for Aβ(1-42) inhibition of less than 5 in most cases less than 1.0 μM, and in many cases less than 0.5 μM. Furthermore, said values were at least 2-fold lower than the corresponding IC50 values for Aβ(1-40) inhibition, typically at least 5-fold lower.

Assay for In Vivo Efficacy

APP-YAC transgenic mice (20-30 g; 2-6 months old) and Sprague Dawley rats (200-250 g; 8-10 weeks old) were kept on 12-hr light/dark cycle with unrestricted access to food and water. Mice and rats were fasted overnight and were then dosed orally at 10 ml/kg with test compound formulated in either imwitor:Tween-80 (50:50) or 10% Tween-80, respectively. For compound screening studies, test compounds were administered at a single dose (20 or 100 mg/kg) and blood was taken serially at 1 and 4 hrs via tail bleed from mice and terminally at 7 hrs for mice and rats via cardiac puncture. In dose response studies, compounds were given at 0.1, 3, 10, 30, and 100 mg/kg and blood was taken terminally at 7 hrs from mice and rats via cardiac puncture. Following euthanasia by CO2, forebrain tissue was harvested from animals and stored at −80 degrees. For PD analysis of brain Aβ levels, soluble Aβ was extracted from hemi-forebrains by homogenization in 10 volumes of 0.2% DEA in 50 mM NaCl followed by ultracentrifugation. Levels of Aβ 42/40 were analyzed using Meso Scale technology (electrochemiluminesence) with biotinylated 4G8 capture antibody and ruthenium labeled 12F4 or G210 detection antibodies for Aβ 42 and Aβ 40, respectively. For PK analysis, blood and brain samples were processed using a protein precipitation procedure with the remaining filtrate being analyzed via LC/MS/MS to determine drug exposure levels, brain penetration, and ED50/EC50, where appropriate.
Reductions in Aβ42 levels (relative to vehicle-treated controls) for representative compounds of the invention were in the range 50-90% whereas corresponding reductions in Aβ40 levels for the same compounds were less than 20%.
Syntheses
General Procedure 1 (GP 1)—Halogenation of Lactams




Method a) Chlorination:

Lactam (1 eq) and phosphorus pentachloride (2 eq) were placed in a round bottom flask under nitrogen and benzene (anhydrous, 2.5 M) was added. The reaction mixture was heated to 100° C. for 1.5 h. After cooling to room temperature the volatiles were removed and the remaining solid quenched with ice (caution!). Water was added and the precipitating grey solid collected on a filter frit. The chloro lactam was dried on high vacuum and used as such in the subsequent step.
Method b) Bromination:
To a lactam (1 eq) and phosphorus pentachloride (1 eq) in a round bottom flask was added anhydrous chloroform ( ̃0.25 M) and the resulting solution stirred for 30 minutes. Iodine (0.1 eq) was added and after 5-10 minutes drop-wise bromine (1 eq). The reaction was then stirred for 16 hours. Ice was added and the mixture was extracted with dichloromethane three times. The combined organic fractions were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude material was used without purification in the subsequent step, but can be purified by chromatography on silica gel.
Method c) Iodination:
To a solution of lactam in dichloromethane (0.2 M) at −15° C. was added N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (4 eq), then at the same temperature, iodotrimethylsilane (4 eq) was added dropwise. The mixture was stirred for 10 min at −15° C. Iodine (2 eq) was added to this mixture in one portion and the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 2 hours or until complete by LCMS. The mixture was diluted with dichloromethane, washed with sodium thiosulfate (sat. aqueous), dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to afford crude product, which was purified on silica gel (EtOAc/hexane) to afford desired product.
General Procedure 2 (GP 2)—Preparation of Alkyl Azides




Alkyl halide (1.0 eq) and sodium azide (1.2-3 eq; caution, very toxic) were placed in a round bottom flask and ethanol or DMF (DMA, DMPU for unactivated and hindered substrates) were added to give an approximately 0.2 M solution. The mixture was stirred for 16 h at room temperature or up to 80° C. for less reactive electrophiles. The reaction mixture was then alternatively filtered through a 0.45 μM filter and used directly or more commonly worked-up according to the following procedure: water was added and the mixture extracted with methylene chloride twice. The combined organic layers were evaporated under reduced pressure without heating (caution: organic azides are explosive). The crude azide was used directly without further purification in the subsequent step according to GP4.
General Procedure 3 (GP 3)—Preparation of Aryl Azides




Aromatic amine (1 eq) was placed in a round bottom flask and aqueous 1N HCl was added to give an approximately 0.07M solution. The solution was cooled to 0° C. and an aqueous solution of NaNO2 (1 eq, approx. 0.5M) was added dropwise under nitrogen. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir for 2 h at 0° C. An aqueous solution of NaN3 (1.5 eq, approx. 0.5M) was added and the solution was warmed to room temperature and allowed to stir overnight (18 h). Water and methylene chloride were added the pH was adjusted to pH 9 by addition of aqueous 1N sodium hydroxide solution. The product was extracted into the organic layer, which was washed with brine twice, dried with magnesium sulfate, and evaporated under reduced pressure in the absence of heat (caution: azides are explosive). The crude azide was used directly without further purification in the subsequent step according to GP4.
Synthesis of 3-methoxy-4-(4-methyl-imidazol-1-yl)-benzaldehyde




4-Fluoro-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (140 g, 0.91 mol) and 4-methylimidazole (154 g, 1.88 mol) were combined in 2200 mL of dry DMF, degassed by bubbling nitrogen through for 20 min, and then potassium carbonate (189 g, 1.37 mol) was added, and the mixture was warmed to 100° C. (internal temperature), with mechanical stirring. After 22 h, the nearly black, heterogeneous mixture was cooled to room temperature and partitioned between water (3000 mL) and EtOAc (6000 mL). Extracted aqueous layer with additional EtOAc (3×2000 mL), and the combined EtOAc extracts were washed with saturated brine (2×2000 mL), dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated to afford 215 g of a red, gummy oil. Dissolved in a minimum amount of CH2Cl2 and purified on a 1.5-kg plug of silica gel (eluting sequentially with 4 L each of 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% EtOAc-hexanes, then with 16 L of EtOAc); fractions containing product (mixture of two isomers) were combined and concentrated to afford 92 g (47%) of a yellow-orange solid (mixture of isomers), which was dissolved (with warming) in a minimum amount of DMF (120 mL) and treated with water (1000 mL) portionwise (with mechanical stirring) at room temperature. Stirred suspension for 10 min, then collected precipitate (w/water washes) to afford a slightly orange solid, which was recrystallized from 250 mL absolute EtOH and 1000 mL of water to afford (after drying under high vacuum overnight) 67.8 g of the title compound as a light orange, fluffy solid.

The residue was purified by reversed phase chromatography (C18, acetonitrile/water with 0.1% TFA).
General Procedure 5 (GP 5)—Alkylation of Amides and Lactams
Method a):
An amide or lactam (1 eq) and caesium carbonate (3 eq) were added to a round-bottom flask under nitrogen and THF (0.05-0.1 M) was added. Alkyl halide or triflate (e.g. trifluoroethyl trifluoromethane sulfonate, 1-1.1 eq) was added and the suspension heated to 65° C. for 1-2 hr. The mixture was cooled, water (10 mL) was added and the mixture was extracted with dichloromethane three times. The combined organic fractions were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by preparative HPLC Reverse phase (C-18), eluting with Acetonitrile/Water+0.1% TFA, to give the desired alkylated product as the trifluoroacetate salt.
Method b):
An amide or lactam (1 eq) and potassium hexamethyldisilazide (1.2 eq) were added to a round-bottom flask under nitrogen and DMF (0.05-0.1 M) was added. Alkyl halide or triflate (e.g. trifluoroethyl trifluoromethane sulfonate, 1.2-1.5 eq) was added and the suspension stirred at room temperature for 16 h (or stirred at slightly elevated temperature, caution: overalkylation). The residue was purified by preparative HPLC Reverse phase (C-18), eluting with Acetonitrile/Water+0.1% TFA, to give the desired alkylated product as the trifluoroacetate salt.
Method c):
An amide or lactam (1 eq) and sodium hydride (60% mineral oil dispersion, 1.2 eq) were dissolved in DMF (0.01-0.1 M) at 0° C. and stirred for 20 min. Alkyl halide or triflate (e.g. trifluoroethyl trifluoromethane sulfonate, 1.1-1.5 eq) was then added dropwise and the reaction stirred at room temperature to 40° C. until complete by LCMS. The reaction was worked up using Brine (2×, 100 mL) and EtOAc (100 mL). The organic layer was dried using MgSO4 and evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by preparative HPLC Reverse Phase (C-18), eluting with Acetonitrile/Water w/0.1% TFA, to give the product as a yellow solid. It was then freebased using Sat. K-card solution, extracting into EtAOc, and the organic layer was dried with MgSO4 and evaporated under reduced pressure to give a yellow solid.
