## Background
APPLICATION DATA
This application is a continuation application of U.S. application Ser. No. 11/690,362 filed on Mar. 23, 2007 which claims benefit to EP 06112300 filed Apr. 6, 2006.


The present invention relates to new thiazolyl-dihydro-quinazolines of general formula (I)




wherein X and the groups R1 to R4 have the meanings given in the claims and specification, the isomers thereof, and processes for preparing these thiazolyldihydro-quinazolines and their use as pharmaceutical compositions.

BACKGROUND TO THE INVENTION
Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinases (PI3-kinases) are a subfamily of the lipid kinases which catalyse the transfer of a phosphate group to the 3′-position of the inositol ring of phosphoinositides.
They have a role in numerous cell processes such as e.g. cell growth and differentiation processes, the control of cytoskeletal changes and the regulation of intracellular transport processes (Vanhaesebroeck et al., Annu Rev Biochem. 2001; 70:535-602).
PI3-kinases may play a part in numerous tumours, such as e.g. breast cancer, ovarian or pancreatic carcinoma, in tumour types such as carcinomas of the colon, breast or lungs, but particularly in autoimmune diseases such as Crohn's disease or rheumatoid arthritis, for example, or in the cardiovascular system, e.g. in the development of cardiac hypertrophy (Oudit et al., Circulation. 2003 oct 28; 108(17):2147-52). PI3-kinase modulators may represent a possible method of anti-inflammatory therapy with comparatively minor side effects (Ward and Finan, Curr Opin Pharmacol. 2003 August; 3(4):426-34).
PI3-kinase inhibitors for treating inflammatory diseases are known in the literature. Thus, WO 03/072557 discloses 5-phenylthiazole derivatives, WO 04/029055 discloses annelated azolpyrimidines and WO 04/007491 discloses azolidinone-vinyl linked benzene derivatives. Moreover, the two specifications WO 04/052373 and WO 04/056820 disclose benzoxazine and benzoxazin-3-one derivatives.
The aim of the present invention is to provide new compounds which by virtue of their pharmaceutical activity as PI3-kinase modulators may be used therapeutically for the treatment of inflammatory or allergic diseases. Examples of these include inflammatory and allergic respiratory complaints, inflammatory and allergic skin complaints, inflammatory eye diseases, diseases of the nasal mucosa, inflammatory or allergic illnesses which involve autoimmune reactions or kidney inflammation.


DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Surprisingly it has been found that the aim outlined above is achieved by means of compounds of formula (I), wherein the groups R1 to R4 have the meanings given hereinafter.
It has particularly been found that compounds of formula (I) act as inhibitors of PI3-kinase, particularly as inhibitors of PI3-kinase gamma. Thus the compounds according to the invention may be used for example for the treatment of respiratory complaints.
The present invention therefore relates to compounds of general formula (I),

Biological Test

The compounds of formula (I) mentioned by way of example are characterised by an affinity for PI3-kinase, i.e. in the test by an IC50 value of below 600 nmol/liter.
In order to determine the inhibitory activity of the compounds on PI3Kγ, the in-vitro kinase assay described below was used. The expression and purification of Gβ1γ2-His and p101-GST/p110γ from Sf9-cells (Spodoptera frugiperda 9) has already been described (Maier et al., J. Biol. Chem. 1999 (274) 29311-29317).
10 μl of the compound to be tested were placed on 96 well PVDF filter plates (0.45 μM) and incubated for 20 min with 30 μl lipid vesicles (PIP2 (0.7 μg/well), phosphatidylethanolamine (7.5 μg/well), phosphatidylserine (7.5 μg/well), sphingomyelin (0.7 μg/well) and phosphatidylcholine (3.2 μg/well)) which contained 1-3 ng PI3K□ and 20-60 ng G□1□2-His. The reaction was started by the addition of 10 μl reaction buffer (40 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EGTA, 1 mM □-glycerophosphate, 1 mM DTT, 7 mM MgCl2 and 0.1% BSA; 1 μM ATP and 0.2 μCi [□-33P]-ATP) and incubated for 120 min at ambient temperature. The reaction solution was sucked through the filters by the application of a vacuum and washed with 200 μl PBS. After the plates had been dried at 50° C. the radioactivity remaining in the plates was determined after the addition of 50 μl scintillation liquid using a Top-Count measuring device.

The compounds according to the invention are present as active ingredients in conventional preparations, for example in compositions consisting essentially of an inert pharmaceutical carrier and an effective dose of the active substance, such as for example tablets, coated tablets, capsules, lozenges, powders, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, syrups, suppositories, transdermal systems etc. An effective dose of the compounds according to the invention is between 0.1 and 5000, preferably between 1 and 500, more preferably between 5-300 mg/dose for oral administration, and between 0.001 and 50, preferably between 0.1 and 10 mg/dose for intravenous. subcutaneous or intramuscular administration. For inhalation, according to the invention, solutions containing 0.01 to 1.0, preferably 0.1 to 0.5% active substance are suitable. For administration by inhalation the use of powders, ethanolic or aqueous solutions is preferred. It is also possible to use the compounds according to the invention as a solution for infusion, preferably in a physiological saline or nutrient saline solution.
The compounds according to the invention may be used on their own or in conjunction with other active substances according to the invention, optionally also in conjunction with other pharmacologically active substances. Suitable formulations include, for example, tablets, capsules, suppositories, solutions, syrups, emulsions or dispersible powders. Corresponding tablets may be obtained for example by mixing the active substance(s) with known excipients, for example inert diluents, such as calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate or lactose, disintegrants such as maize starch or alginic acid, binders such as starch or gelatine, lubricants such as magnesium stearate or talc and/or agents for delaying release, such as carboxymethyl cellulose, cellulose acetate phthalate, or polyvinyl acetate. The tablets may also comprise several layers.
Coated tablets may be prepared accordingly by coating cores produced analogously to the tablets with substances normally used for tablet coatings, for example collidone or shellac, gum arabic, talc, titanium dioxide or sugar. To achieve delayed release or prevent incompatibilities the core may also consist of a number of layers. Similarly the tablet coating may consist of a number of layers to achieve delayed release, possibly using the excipients mentioned above for the tablets.
Syrups containing the active substances or combinations thereof according to the invention may additionally contain a sweetener such as saccharine, cyclamate, glycerol or sugar and a flavour enhancer, e.g. a flavouring such as vanillin or orange extract. They may also contain suspension adjuvants or thickeners such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, wetting agents such as, for example, condensation products of fatty alcohols with ethylene oxide, or preservatives such as p-hydroxybenzoates.
Solutions for injection are prepared in the usual way, e.g. with the addition of preservatives such as p-hydroxybenzoates, or stabilisers such as alkali metal salts of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, and transferred into injection vials or ampoules.
Capsules containing one or more active substances or combinations of active substances may for example be prepared by mixing the active substances with inert carriers such as lactose or sorbitol and packing them into gelatine capsules.
Suitable suppositories may be made for example by mixing with carriers provided for this purpose, such as neutral fats or polyethyleneglycol or the derivatives thereof.
A therapeutically effective daily dose is between 1 and 2000 mg, preferably 10-500 mg per adult.
