Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention is directed to compounds that are useful in treating or preventing pain, septic shock, pancreatitis, edema, rhinitis, asthma, colitis, arthritis, hepatorenal syndrome, cancer, bacterial and viral infections, ulcerative colitis, and Alzheimer's Disease. More particularly, the present invention is directed to benzodiazepine derivatives that useful in treating pain.

2. Discussion of Relevant Art

Two types of bradykinin receptor are known: The B1 receptor and the B2 receptor. A number of reports indicate an important role for the B2 receptor in the pathophysiology of pain. [e.g. Hall, J. M., Morton, I. K. M. The pharmacology and immunopharmacology of kinin receptors. In: Farmer S G (Ed). The kinin system. London: Academic Press, 1997; 944]. Hence, compounds that are B2 antagonists are useful in the relief of pain, including chronic pain and acute pain, e.g., chronic inflammatory pain, neuropathic pain, back pain, migraine, cancer pain, visceral pain, arthritis pain and post-operative pain.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Thus, the problem underlying the present invention was to develop new compounds that are novel kinin B2 antagonists.

Accordingly, in one aspect, the present invention provides compounds that are useful in treating pain.

In a further aspect, the present invention provides the use of a compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, as hereinbefore defined in the manufacture of a medicament for use in therapy.

In the context of the present specification, the term “therapy” also includes “prophylaxis” unless there are specific indications to the contrary. The term “therapeutic” and “therapeutically” should be construed accordingly. The term “therapy” within the context of the present invention further encompasses to administer an effective amount of a compound of the present invention, to mitigate either a pre-existing disease state, acute or chronic, or a recurring condition. This definition also encompasses prophylactic therapies for prevention of recurring conditions and continued therapy for chronic disorders.

The compounds of the present invention are useful in therapy, especially for the therapy of various pain conditions including, but not limited to: acute pain, chronic pain, neuropathic pain, acute pain, back pain, cancer pain, and visceral pain.

In use for therapy in a warm-blooded animal such as a human, the compound of the invention may be administered in the form of a conventional pharmaceutical composition by any route including orally, intramuscularly, subcutaneously, topically, intranasally, intraperitoneally, intrathoracially, intravenously, epidurally, intrathecally, intracerebroventricularly and by injection into the joints.

In one embodiment of the invention, the route of administration may be orally, intravenously or intramuscularly.

The dosage will depend on the route of administration, the severity of the disease, age and weight of the patient and other factors normally considered by the attending physician, when determining the individual regimen and dosage level at the most appropriate for a particular patient.

For preparing pharmaceutical compositions from the compounds of this invention, inert, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers can be either solid or liquid. Solid form preparations include powders, tablets, dispersible granules, capsules, cachets, and suppositories.

A solid carrier can be one or more substances, which may also act as diluents, flavoring agents, solubilizers, lubricants, suspending agents, binders, or table disintegrating agents; it can also be an encapsulating material.

In powders, the carrier is a finely divided solid, which is in a mixture with the finely divided compound of the invention, or the active component. In tablets, the active component is mixed with the carrier having the necessary binding properties in suitable proportions and compacted in the shape and size desired.

For preparing suppository compositions, a low-melting wax such as a mixture of fatty acid glycerides and cocoa butter is first melted and the active ingredient is dispersed therein by, for example, stirring. The molten homogeneous mixture in then poured into convenient sized moulds and allowed to cool and solidify.

Suitable carriers are magnesium carbonate, magnesium stearate, talc, lactose, sugar, pectin, dextrin, starch, tragacanth, methyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, a low-melting wax, cocoa butter, and the like.

The term composition is also intended to include the formulation of the active component with encapsulating material as a carrier providing a capsule in which the active component (with or without other carriers) is surrounded by a carrier which is thus in association with it. Similarly, cachets are included.

Tablets, powders, cachets, and capsules can be used as solid dosage forms suitable for oral administration.

Liquid form compositions include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions. For example, sterile water or water propylene glycol solutions of the active compounds may be liquid preparations suitable for parenteral administration. Liquid compositions can also be formulated in solution in aqueous polyethylene glycol solution.

Aqueous solutions for oral administration can be prepared by dissolving the active component in water and adding suitable colorants, flavoring agents, stabilizers, and thickening agents as desired. Aqueous suspensions for oral use can be made by dispersing the finely divided active component in water together with a viscous material such as natural synthetic gums, resins, methyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, and other suspending agents known to the pharmaceutical formulation art.

Depending on the mode of administration, the pharmaceutical composition will preferably include from 0.05% to 99% w (per cent by weight), more preferably from 0.10 to 50% w, of the compound of the invention, all percentages by weight being based on total composition.

A therapeutically effective amount for the practice of the present invention may be determined, by the use of known criteria including the age, weight and response of the individual patient, and interpreted within the context of the disease which is being treated or which is being prevented, by one of ordinary skills in the art.

Methods of Preparation

The compounds listed in Table 1 were prepared as single compounds in a combinatorial array. The Table 1, column 4 designation of “yes” indicates that the target mass of the designated compound was found in >50% abundance in the MS spectrum. Similarly, the designation of “tentative” indicates that that the target mass of the designated compound was found in 15-50% abundance in the MS spectrum. Likewise the designation “no” indicates that the target mass of the designated compound was found in <15% abundance in MS 'spectrum. It will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that a chemical reaction which fails to efficiently yield the desired product within the context of a combinatorial protocol may nonetheless efficiently yield the desired product when the reaction is performed in a single reaction or parallel reaction format, without undue experimentation on the part of the chemist. In this regard, several of the compounds which were not prepared efficiently in the combinatorial array, were subsequently prepared in separate syntheses as shown in the Examples.

The reaction sequence depicted in Scheme 1, infra, describes a process for preparing compounds of formula (I) wherein X is represented by formula (i) or (ii), comprising reacting a compound of general formula II wherein Y is a protecting group such as CBZ or FMOC, with an alkyl or alkenyl halide, such as allyl bromide in the presence of a base such as cesium carbonate to give compounds of general formula III; deprotecting the compounds of formula III under standard conditions and then acylated the deprotected products of formula IV with thiophosgene or phosgene to yield isothiocyanates or isocyanates of formula V, respectively: and subsequently aminating the compounds of formula V combinatorially in a multiwell plate with a selection of different amines to yield compounds of formula I wherein X is represented by formula (i) or (ii) shown above.

The general protocol for the preparation of the combinatorial library is depicted in Scheme 1 and specific experimental details are provided in the Examples below.

The solvent was then evaporated in vacuo, and the residue was treated with a 2M solution of sodium hydroxide until the pH of the solution was >10. The mixture was extracted with dichloromethane (50 ml) and the organic phase was dried over MgSO₄, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The product (0.032 g, 0.2 mmol) ((ESI) (M+H)⁺=192) was taken up in dichloroethane (5 ml), and 7-chloro-5-(2-chlorophenyl)-1,3-dihydro-3-isothiocyanato-1-methyl-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one(0.075 g, 0.2 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was heated at 70 C for 16 h. The solvent was evaporated in vacuo, and the residue was washed with ether (2×10 ml) to yield the desired compound.

As illustrated in the scheme above, N₂ gas was bubbled through both DME and water for at least 3 hours. A solution of the imidoyl chloride (1 equiv.) in DME (1.5 mL/mmol imidoyl chloride) was placed in a N₂purged flask. Na₂CO₃ (1 equiv.), PdCl₂(dppf) (0.05 equiv.), boronic acid (1 equiv.) and water (0.5 mL/mmol imidoyl chloride) were added sequentially, and the resulting mixture was heated at 100° C. until the imidoyl chloride was consumed (typically 16 h). The reaction was then cooled, diluted with CH₂Cl₂ and water, and the layers were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with CH₂Cl₂ (3×), and the combined organic phases were dried over Na₂SO₄, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatography to provide the desired compound.

As illustrated in the scheme above, boronic acid (1.15 equiv.), Pd₂(dba)₃ (0.015 equiv.), and dry KF (3.3 equiv.) were placed in an oven-dried, N₂ purged flask.

As illustrated in the scheme above, polymer supported triphenylphosphine (Argonaut Technologies, 5-10 equiv) was added to a solution of the azide (1 equiv.) in THF (10 mL/g polymer) and water (0.8 mL/g polymer). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature until all of the azide had been consumed (typically overnight). The polymer resin was then removed by filtration, and was washed well with CH₂Cl₂ and MeOH (3× each). The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo, and the residue was redissolved in CH₂Cl₂. Any remaining water was removed with the aid of a separatory funnel, and the organic phase was dried over Na₂SO₄, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The amine was purified using a “catch and release” strategy with MP-TsOH resin (Argonaut Technologies): The product was dissolved in CH₂Cl₂ (10 mL/mmol product), and MP-TsOH resin (2.3 equiv) was added. The mixture was stirred for 1 h, and the solvent was removed by filtration and discarded. The resin was rinsed with CH₂Cl₂ and MeOH (3× each), and the washings were discarded as well. The product was then released from the resin by washing with 2M NH₃ in MeOH and CH₂Cl₂ (3× each). Concentration of the filtrate in vacuo provided the corresponding amine compound.

Additional compounds of the present invention may also be prepared according to the methods represented in Schemes 2-4 below, wherein, unless specified otherwise, b, R¹, R², R³, R⁴ and R⁵ are defined as above. Biological Evaluation I. B2 Bradykinin Binding Assay A. Human Bradykinin B2 (hB2) Receptor Expression and Membrane Preparation

The cloned human Bradykinin B2 (hB2) receptor in the pCIN vector was purchased from Receptor Biology. The hB2 receptor was stably transfected into HEK 293 S cells and a clonal cell line was generated. Cells were grown in T-flasks with DMEM culture media containing 10% FBS, 2 mM glutamine, 600 μg/ml neomycin and an antibiotic cocktail (100 IU penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, 0.25 μg/ml amphotericin B). Membranes, expressing the hB2 receptor, were prepared from this cell line according to this protocol: Cells are harvested at 1 to 1.2 million cells/ml, pelleted, and resuspended in ice-cold lysis buffer (50 mM Tris, pH 7.0, 2.5 mM EDTA, with PMSF added just prior to use to 0.5 mM from a 0.5 M stock in DMSO. After lysis on ice for 15 min, the cells are homogenized with a polytron for 10 sec. The suspension is spun at 1000 g for 10 min at 4° C. The supernatant is saved on ice and the pellets resuspended and spun as before. The supernatants from both spins are combined and spun at 46,000 g for 10-30 min. The pellets are resuspended in cold Tris buffer (50 mM Tris/Cl, pH 7.0) at a dilution of 0.2-1 ml per 40 million cells and spun again. The final pellets are resuspended in membrane buffer (50 mM Tris, 0.32 M sucrose, pH 7.0). Aliquots are frozen in dry ice/ethanol and stored at −70° C. until use. The protein concentrations are determined by a modified Lowry with SDS.

B. hB2 Receptor Binding

Membranes expressing the hB2 receptor are thawed at 37° C., passed 3 times through a 25-gauge blunt-end needle, diluted in the bradykinin binding buffer (50 mM Tris, 3 mM MgCl₂, and 1 mg/ml BSA, pH 7.4, 0.02 mg/ml Phenanthroline, 0.25 mg/ml Pefabloc) and 80 μL aliquots containing the appropriate amount of protein (final concentration of 0.25 μg/ml) are distributed in 96-well polystyrene plates (Treff Lab). The IC₅₀ of compounds are evaluated from 10-point dose-response curves, where the serial dilutions are done on a final volume of 150 μL, with 70 μL of ¹²⁵I-Desamino-TyrHOE140 (Kd=0.05) at 50,000 to 60,000 dpm per well (0.03-0.04 nM) in a final volume of 300 μl. The total and non-specific binding are determined in the absence and presence of 0.1 μM (150 μL) of Bradykinin respectively. The plates are vortexed and incubated for 60 minutes at room temperature, filtered through Unifilters-96 GF/B (Canberra Packard), which were presoaked in 0.1% polyethyleneimine, with a harvester using 3 ml of wash buffer (50 mM Tris, pH 7.0, 3 mM MgCl₂). The filters are dried for 1 hour at 55° C. The radioactivity (cpm) is counted in a TopCount (Canberra Packard) after adding 65 μl/well of MS-20 scintillation liquid (Canberra Packard). Compounds of the present invention have demonstrated hB2 receptor binding at concentrations less than 10 μM.

Based on the above assays, the dissociation constant (Ki) for a particular compound of the invention towards a particular receptor is determined using the following equation: Ki=IC₅₀/(1+[rad]/Kd),

• • Wherein IC₅₀ is the concentration of the compound of the invention at which 50% displacement has been observed;
  • [rad] is a standard or reference radioactive ligand concentration at that moment; and
  • Kd is the dissociation constant of the radioactive ligand towards the particular receptor. II. GTP[γ]³⁵S Binding Experiments on Bradykinin (B2) Receptors A. General Information

The procedures below describe how to perform and interpret GTP[γ]³⁵S binding experiments designed to determine the activity of new compounds on the human B2 receptor.

B. General Procedure of the Assay

Human Bradykinin-2 GTP[γ]³⁵S Binding

Human Bradykinin-2 membranes (hB2 293s) are thawed at 37° C., passed 3 times through a 25-gauge blunt-end needle and diluted in the GTPγS binding buffer for the assay (50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4; 200 mM NaCl; 1 mM EDTA; 5 mM MgCl₂. To this added freshly prepared 1 mM DTT, 0.5% BSA, 1 μM GDP. The EC50 and Emax of compounds are evaluated from 10-point dose-response curves done in 300 μl with the appropriate amount of membrane protein and 100,000-120,000 dpm of GTPγ³⁵S per well (0.11-0.14 nM). Bradykinin (1-9) is used as the standard agonist at hB2. The ranges of concentrations tested should include a maximal concentration of 0.1 μM bradykinin in order to establish the E_max.

The plates are vortexed and incubated for 60 minutes at room temperature, filtered on GF/B Unifilters (presoaked in water) with the Packard harvester using 4 ml/well of wash buffer (50 mM Tris, 5 mM MgCl₂, 50 mM NaCl, pH 7.0), minimum. The filters are dried for 1 hour at 55° C. The radioactivity (cpm) is counted in a TopCount (Packard) after adding 65 μl/well of MS-20 scintillation liquid.

Antagonist reversal studies are done in a similar manner except that the compound dose-response curve's are performed in the presence of a constant concentration of agonist (approx. 80% bradykinin E_max; ˜5 nM). A standard B2 Antagonist is used as the reference antagonist at hB2. The ranges of antagonist concentrations tested should include a maximal concentration of 3 μM of the standard B2 Antagonist in order to establish the maximal displacement (D_max).

C. Radioligand: Preparation of GTP[γ]³⁵S

GTP[γ]³⁵S is acquired from Perkin-Elmer (250 μCi/20 μl). It is diluted from with 10 mM DTT, 50 mM Tris, pH 7 (dilute in 2 ml, 1.0 mCI/20 μ). Sonicate the solution, filter through a 0.45 μm filter, and freeze aliquots at −70° C. For the experiment, use ˜0.3 nM dilution of this tracer in the GTP binding buffer.

D. Data Analysis

The EC₅₀ and E_max of compounds are evaluated from 10-point dose-response curves done in 300 μl with the appropriate amount of membrane protein and GTPγ³⁵S per well and are calculated in Activity base with ExcelFit. The basal and maximal stimulated binding are determined in the absence and presence of standard reference compounds, respectively.

The stimulation (Stim) in the presence of compounds is expressed as the percentage of D_max of the reference antagonist. Values of IC₅₀, Ki′ and D_max for ligands capable of competing for agonist stimulated binding are calculated in Activity Base. Mean±S.E.M. values of IC₅₀, Ki′ and % D_max are reported for ligands tested in at least three dose-response curves.
