Title: Ultra short acting anti-arrhythmic agents

Description:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     Herein are described novel dofetilide derivatives and pharmaceutical compositions containing the same. The derivatives and compositions are useful as pharmaceutical agents in the treatment of supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     There is a clinical need for a short acting effective anti-arrhythmic agent for the treatment of both supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias in patients with arrhythmias. Two effective agents are amiodarone and dofetilide. Amiodarone has an exceedingly long half-life and a multitude of adverse toxicities. Dofetilide is also an effective anti-arrhythmic, but its use is limited by the worsening of arrhythmias at times, a problem termed proarrhythmia. While the half-life of dofetilide in man is shorter than amiodarone, the half-life of dofetilide is twelve hours on average, making the cessation of therapy if arrhythmias worsen, problematic. To dissipate, dofetilide takes a long time, which can be a major clinical problem. 
     The introduction of a short acting dofetilide-like drug would offer considerable advantage for the acute treatment of arrhythmias. Therefore, it is desirable to discover dofetilide-like compounds that metabolize faster than dofetilide. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     Accordingly, in some aspects, there are described novel dofetilide derivatives stereoisomers or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. 
     In some aspects, there are described novel pharmaceutical compositions, comprising: a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a therapeutically effective amount of at least one of the compounds described herein or a stereoisomer or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. 
     In some aspects, there are described novel methods of treating various therapeutic indications of dofetilide by administering to a subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound described herein. 
     In some aspects, there are described compounds for use in medical therapy. 
     In some aspects, there is described the use of compounds described herein for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias. 
     These and other objects, which will become apparent during the following detailed description, have been achieved by the inventors&#39; discovery that the presently claimed compounds or stereoisomers or pharmaceutically acceptable salt forms thereof are expected to be effective as dofetilide derivatives. 
    
    
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     All references cited herein are hereby incorporated in their entirety herein by reference. 
     Dofetilide is a sulfonamide class III antiarrhythmic agent and potassium channel blocker used in the treatment of atrial fibrillation and flutter. It can restore normal sinus rhythm (NSR) by selectively blocking cardiac ion channels of the rapid component of the delayed rectifier potassium current Ikr. This property prolongs cardiac action potential duration and effective refractory period due to delayed repolarization without affecting conduction velocity, resulting in NSR. 
     A short acting dofetilide derivative administered intravenously (IV) could be administered to patients in a supraventricular arrhythmia to affect termination. If the treating physician saw evidence of excessive QT prolongation, the IV dofetilide derivative could be stopped, avoiding adverse effects that could entail life threatening ventricular arrhythmias such as ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation. 
     In the pediatric population, the use of IV dofetilide has advantages over amiodarone, another anti-arrhythmic drug. Amiodarone has many adverse side effects, and its toxicity is especially problematic in pediatric patients. In addition, dofetilide is especially effective in some supraventricular arrhythmias that are unique to the pediatric patient. An arrhythmia post-operative, ectopic junctional tachycardia (JET) is especially susceptible to effective treatment employing dofetilide. Utilizing a short acting dofetilide derivative would terminate the arrhythmia and if toxicity develops from dofetilide derivative, the drug action could be rapidly stopped, providing an extra safety margin in the pediatric patient. 
     A rapidly metabolized dofetilide derivative could be used to slow atrial tachycardia, convert atrial tachycardia, slow the ventricular response to atrial fibrillation, or convert atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter. A rapid acting, short half-life drug would be especially effective in the post-operative coronary artery surgery patients. Oral dofetilide has been shown effective in preventing the high incidence of AF post-operative. An IV short acting agent would be useful in this situation affording pharmacologic benefit, while if excessive QT prolongation is noted, or ventricular arrhythmias develop, the agent could be stopped with rapid dissipation of the adverse pharmacologic actions. This agent would possess the efficacy advantages of dofetilide with a new safety margin, offering considerable therapeutic advantage. 
     A short acting dofetilide derivative administered IV could be used for loading in atrial fibrillation patients to target Cmax ss (steady state)(patient specific and likely dependent upon renal clearance). If the treating physician saw evidence of excessive QT prolongation and/or Torsade de Pointes develops, the IV dofetilide derivative could be stopped and the dofetilide derivative would very rapidly dissipate. This would greatly increase patient safety and reduce the risk of life threatening arrhythmias caused by dofetilide. 
     As a result, in some aspects, there is described a novel dofetilide derivative that is expected to be metabolized by human esterases faster than dofetilide (˜8-10 hours for terminal elimination half-life of dofetilide). This novel antiarrhythmic agent is expected to be rapidly metabolized to reduce the time of the desired activity of the administered agent and minimize the side effects due to prolonged exposure, which have been observed with dofetilide. 
     In some aspects, the rapid metabolization is achieved by introducing an ester into dofetilide to increase its metabolism by esterases and thereby reduce its half-life to be less than that of unmodified dofetilide. 
     In some aspects, there is described a novel compound selected from Formulae I-VI:

     “Treating” or “treatment” covers the treatment of a disease-state in a mammal, and includes: (a) preventing the disease-state from occurring in a mammal, in particular, when such mammal is predisposed to the disease-state but has not yet been diagnosed as having it; (b) inhibiting the disease-state, e.g., arresting its development; and/or (c) relieving the disease-state, e.g., causing regression of the disease state until a desired endpoint is reached. Treating also includes the amelioration of a symptom of a disease, wherein such amelioration may or may not be directly affecting the disease (e.g., cause, transmission, expression, etc.). 
     “Pharmaceutically acceptable salts” refer to derivatives of the disclosed compounds wherein the parent compound is modified by making acid or base salts thereof. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, mineral or organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines; alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids; and the like. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts include the conventional non-toxic salts or the quaternary ammonium salts of the parent compound formed, for example, from non-toxic inorganic or organic acids. For example, such conventional non-toxic salts include, but are not limited to, those derived from inorganic and organic acids selected from 1, 2-ethanedisulfonic, 2-acetoxybenzoic, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonic, acetic, ascorbic, benzenesulfonic, benzoic, bicarbonic, carbonic, citric, edetic, ethane disulfonic, ethane sulfonic, fumaric, glucoheptonic, gluconic, glutamic, glycolic, glycollyarsanilic, hexylresorcinic, hydrabamic, hydrobromic, hydrochloric, hydroiodide, hydroxymaleic, hydroxynaphthoic, isethionic, lactic, lactobionic, lauryl sulfonic, maleic, malic, mandelic, methanesulfonic, napsylic, nitric, oxalic, pamoic, pantothenic, phenylacetic, phosphoric, polygalacturonic, propionic, salicyclic, stearic, subacetic, succinic, sulfamic, sulfanilic, sulfuric, tannic, tartaric, and toluenesulfonic. 
     The pharmaceutically acceptable salts described herein can be synthesized from the parent compound that contains a basic or acidic moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acid or base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or in an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two; generally, non-aqueous media like ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile are useful. Lists of suitable salts are found in  Remington&#39;s Pharmaceutical Sciences,  18th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., 1990, p 1445, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. 
     “Therapeutically effective amount” includes an amount of a compound described herein that is effective when administered alone or in combination to an indication listed herein. “Therapeutically effective amount” also includes an amount of the combination of compounds claimed that is effective to treat the desired indication. The combination of compounds can be a synergistic combination. Synergy, as described, for example, by Chou and Talalay,  Adv. Enzyme Regul.  1984, 22:27-55, occurs when the effect of the compounds when administered in combination is greater than the additive effect of the compounds when administered alone as a single agent. In general, a synergistic effect is most clearly demonstrated at sub-optimal concentrations of the compounds. Synergy can be in terms of lower cytotoxicity, increased effect, or some other beneficial effect of the combination compared with the individual components.

The amount of active compound in such therapeutically useful compositions is such that an effective dosage level will be obtained. 
     The amount of the compound described herein or an active salt or derivative thereof, required for use in treatment will vary not only with the compound or salt selected but also with the route of administration, the nature of the condition being treated, and the age and condition of the patient, and will ultimately be at the discretion of the attendant physician or clinician. In general, however, a suitable dose will be in the range of about 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, to 1000 mg per dosage (e.g., twice per day (BID). Other examples include (a) about 200-800 mg per dosage and (b) about 400-600 mg dosage. 
     A compound described herein can also be given based on the weight of the patient. In general, a suitable weight-based dosage will be in the range of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, to 10 mg/kg of body weight per dosage. Other examples include (a) about 4-9 mg/kg and (b) about 5-8 mg/kg of body weight per dosage. 
     The compounds described herein can be conveniently administered in unit dosage form, e.g., vials or pre-filled syringes, etc., containing (a) about 100-100 mg, (b) about 200-800 mg, and (c) about 400-600 mg of active ingredient per unit dosage form. 
     The compounds described herein can be administered to achieve peak plasma concentrations of the active compound of about 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, 3, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, to 3.5 ng/mL. These concentrations may be achieved, for example, by the intravenous injection (e.g., continuously or bolus) of a 0.005-0.5% solution of the active ingredient. 
     When a compound described herein is administered in combination with another agent or agents (e.g., co-administered), then the compound described herein and other agent can be administered simultaneously or in any order. They can be administered as a single pharmaceutical composition or as separate compositions. The administration of the compound described herein can be prior to the other agent(s), within minutes thereof, or up to hours (e.g., 24 or 48) or even days after the administration of the other agent(s). For example, the administration of the compound described herein can be within about 24 hours or within about 12 hours. 
     The compounds described herein may also be administered intravenously (e.g., continuously or bolus) or intraperitoneally by infusion or injection. Solutions of the compounds described herein or their salts can be prepared in water, optionally mixed with a nontoxic surfactant. For solubility purposes the compound(s) may also be solubilized in a lipid emolusion or administered in liposomes. Dispersions can also be prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycols, triacetin, and mixtures thereof and in oils. Under ordinary conditions of storage and use, these preparations contain a preservative to prevent the growth of microorganisms. 
     The pharmaceutical dosage forms suitable for injection or infusion can include sterile aqueous solutions or dispersions or sterile powders comprising the active ingredient which are adapted for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable or infusible solutions or dispersions, optionally encapsulated in liposomes. In all cases, the ultimate dosage form should be sterile, fluid and stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage. The liquid carrier or vehicle can be a solvent or liquid dispersion medium comprising, for example, water, ethanol, a polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, liquid polyethylene glycols, and the like), vegetable oils, nontoxic glyceryl esters, and suitable mixtures thereof. The proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the formation of liposomes, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions or using surfactants. The prevention of the action of microorganisms can be brought about by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, sorbic acid, thimerosal, and the like. In many cases, it will be preferable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, buffers or sodium chloride. Prolonged absorption of the injectable compositions can be brought about by the use in the compositions of agents delaying absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate and gelatin. 
     Sterile injectable solutions are prepared by incorporating the active compound in the required amount in the appropriate solvent with various other ingredients enumerated above, as required, followed by filter sterilization. In the case of sterile powders for the preparation of sterile injectable solutions, the preferred methods of preparation are vacuum drying and the freeze-drying techniques, which yield a powder of the active ingredient plus any additional desired ingredient present in the previously sterile-filtered solutions. Sterilization can also be performed by rapid heating and cooling. 
     Useful solid carriers include finely divided solids such as talc, clay, microcrystalline cellulose, silica, alumina and the like. Useful liquid carriers include water, alcohols or glycols or water-alcohol/glycol blends, in which the present compounds can be dissolved or dispersed at effective levels, optionally with the aid of non-toxic surfactants. Adjuvants such as fragrances and additional antimicrobial agents can be added to optimize the properties for a given use. The resultant liquid compositions can be applied from absorbent pads, used to impregnate bandages and other dressings or sprayed onto the affected area using pump-type or aerosol sprayers. 
     The desired dose of the compounds described herein may conveniently be presented in a single dose or as divided doses administered at appropriate intervals, for example, as two, three, four or more sub-doses per day. The sub-dose itself may be further divided, e.g., into a number of discrete loosely spaced administrations. 
     Synthesis 
     The compounds described herein can be prepared in a number of ways known to one skilled in the art of organic synthesis (e.g., see U.S. Pat. No. 4,959,366. The compounds described herein can be synthesized using the methods described below, together with synthetic methods known in the art of synthetic organic chemistry, or by variations thereon as appreciated by those skilled in the art.

The reactions are performed in a solvent appropriate to the reagents and materials employed and suitable for the transformations being affected. It will be understood by those skilled in the art of organic synthesis that the functionality present on the molecule should be consistent with the transformations proposed. This will sometimes require a judgment to modify the order of the synthetic steps or to select one process scheme over another in order to obtain a desired compound. It will also be recognized that another major consideration in the planning of any synthetic route in this field is the judicious choice of the protecting group used for protection of the reactive functional groups present in the compounds described herein. An authoritative account describing the many alternatives to the trained practitioner is Greene and Wuts ( Protective Groups In Organic Synthesis , Wiley and Sons, 1991). All references cited herein are hereby incorporated in their entirety herein by reference. 
     One stereoisomer of a compound described herein may be more potent than its counterpart(s). Thus, stereoisomers are included in some aspects. When required, separation of the racemic material can be achieved by HPLC using a chiral column or by a resolution using a resolving agent such as described in Wilen, S. H.  Tables of Resolving Agents and Optical Resolutions  1972, 308 or using enantiomerically pure acids and bases. A chiral compound described herein may also be directly synthesized using a chiral catalyst or a chiral ligand, e.g., Jacobsen, E.  Acc. Chem. Res.  2000, 33, 421-431 or using other enantio- and diastereo-selective reactions and reagents known to one skilled in the art of asymmetric synthesis. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Scheme 1 shows the preparation of dofetiliide analogs with functionality to confer ultra-short activity to the molecules due to their propensity for rapid esterase hydrolysis to metabolites with greatly diminished, or absence of, parent compound activity. The approach to the synthesis of analogs of dofertilide and related compounds has been duly demonstrated (J Med Chem 45, 2953 (2002)). Treatment of N-methyl-4-nitrophenylalanine methyl ester with 2-(4-nitrophenoxy)-1-bromo ethane in the presence of potassium carbonate in acetonitrile can provide the secondary amine (step a). Alkylation of this amino compound using formalin and sodium cyano borohydride in methanol can produce the tertiary amine (step b). Reduction of the nitro groups using stannous chloride in methanol, or with Fe in methanol in the presence of hydrochloric acid, can produce the bis-anilino compound (step c). Further treatment of 4 with methanesulfonyl chloride in methylene chloride in the presence of triethylamine can afford the bis-sulfonamide (step d). To one skilled in the art, this route is amenable to variation to both the phenethylamine segment as well as the substituents on the central N-atom.

The di-nitro carboxylic acid of Scheme 2 can be coupled with hydroxy butyric acid esters with IBCF (isobutyl chloroformate) in methylene chloride in the presence of NMM (N-methyl morpholine) to afford the hydroxyl ester adducyts (step a). Reduction of the nitro groups with anhydrous stannous chloride in methanol can produce the di-anilino compound (step b). Subsequent treatment with mesyly chloride in methylene chloride in the presence of triethyl amine can yield the bis-sulfonamide (step c).

Commercially available 5-nitro salicylic acid can be alkylated with 1,2 dibromoethane in the presence of potassium carbonate in acetone to give the bromo-ester (step a). Treatment of the bromo-ester with N-methyl-4-nitrophenethyl amine in the presence of potassium carbonate in acetonitrile can afford the tertiary amine (step b). Subsequent reduction of the nitro groups using stannous chloride in methanol can provide the bis-anilino ester (step c). Reaction of the amino groups with methanesulfonyl chloride in methylene chloride in the presence of trimethylamine can afford the bis-sulfonamide (step d). 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Scheme 5 shows the synthesis of analogs with the ester functionality attached to a pendant on the phenoxy portion of dofetilide.
