Benzopyridazinone and pyridopyridazinone compounds

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to benzo and pyridopyridazinones and pyridazinthiones useful as anti-inflammatory agents, antasthmatic agents, immunosuppressive agents, anti-allograft rejection agents, anti-graft-vs-host disease agents, anti-autoimmune agents or analgetic agents, to their intermediates, to their preparation and to pharmaceutical compositions using the compounds of the invention.
2. Background Information
Cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) modulates a variety of cellular and physiologic functions in mammals, such as cell division, endocrine function, and the immune response. The level of cAMP is controlled, in part, by a class of enzymes called phosphodiesterases, which enzymatically degrade cAMP. There are five families of phosphodiesterase that are categorized according to their function. For instance, phosphodiesterase III (PDE III) is isolated from human platelet cells and modulates platelet aggregation. Another type of phosphodiesterase, (PDE IV), is found in various cells but it is the predominant form in human leukocytes. This enzyme modulates leukocyte activation and function associated with the immune response and inflammation. Both of these phosphodiesterases implement their control by modulating the cellular level of cAMP in their respective cells. Thus, inhibition of phosphodiesterases provides a method of modulating any cellular and bodily function that is controlled by cAMP.
Compounds that are nonspecific phosphodiesterase inhibitors are known, i.e., these compounds inhibit all or multiple types of phosphodiesterases. �See, Beavo, J. A. and D. H. Reifsyder, Trends in Pharm. Science, 11:150-155 (1990); and Nicholson, C. D., R. A. J. Challiss and M. Shahid, Trends in Pharm. Science, 12:19-27 (1991).!
Nonspecific phosphodiesterase inhibitors are of limited value because of numerous side-effects. Since cAMP is involved in so many functions throughout the body, a nonspecific phosphodiesterase inhibitor has the potential to alter all of the functions modulated by cAMP.
It has been surprisingly discovered that certain benzo and pyridopyridazinones are potent selective inhibitors of phosphodiesterase IV (PDE IV). These compounds are well suited for use as a treatment for any disorder in which PDE IV function plays a role, such as where leukocyte activation or function is involved. In particular, these compounds are especially well suited for use as anti-inflammatory agents, antasthmatic agents, immunosuppressive agents, anti-allograft rejection agents, anti-graft-vs-host disease agents or anti-autoimmune disease agents.

As indicated the desired compound may be purified by silica gel chromatography or the like, however, preferably the desired compound is taken without further purification to the next step.

Preferably, the reaction mixture is monitored by TLC for completion. The mixture is allowed to cool and filtered to give a crude product. The desired benzo or pyridobenzoylpyridazinones (Formula I) are purified and isolated following extraction and chromatography.

UTILITY, TESTING AND ADMINISTRATION
General Utility
The compounds of this invention, including the pharmaceutically acceptable salts and esters thereof, and the compositions containing them are particularly useful as anti-inflammatory, antasthmatc, immunosuppressive, anti-allograft rejection, anti-graft-vs-host disease, autoimmune disease or analgetic agents. The compounds of this invention act as PDE IV selective inhibitors, thereby modulating cAMP levels. Thus, these compounds are of use for the treatment of conditions or diseases that are modulated by leukocyte cAMP.
For example, inflammation, immunosuppression, autoimmune diseases, graft-vs-host disease and allograft rejection are conditions that are manifested by the proliferation of lymphocytes. The proliferation is triggered by the presence of cAMP at specific levels. Inhibition of lymphocyte proliferation is accomplished by increasing levels of cAMP resulting from the inhibition of lymphocyte phosphodiesterase.

Generally, an acceptable daily dose is of about 0.0001 to 150 mg per kilogram body weight of the recipient per day, preferably about 0.01 to 75 mg per kilogram body weight per day, and most preferably about 0.1 to 30 mg per kilogram body weight per day. Thus, for administration to a 70 kg person, the dosage range would be about 0.007 mg to 10.5 g per day, preferably about 0.7 to 5.25 g per day, and most preferably about 7.0 mg to 2.1 g per day.
Administration can be via any accepted systemic or local route, for example, via parenteral, oral (particularly for infant formulations), intravenous, nasal, bronchial inhalation (i.e., aerosol formulation) transdermal or topical routes, in the form of solid, semi-solid or liquid dosage forms, such as for example, tablets, suppositories, pills, capsules, powders, solutions, suspensions, aerosols, emulsions or the like, preferably in unit dosage forms suitable for simple administration of precise dosages. The compositions will include a conventional pharmaceutical carrier or excipient and an active compound of Formula I and, in addition, may include other medicinal agents, pharmaceutical agents, carriers, adjuvants, etc. Carriers can be selected from the various oils, including those of petroleum, animal, vegetable or synthetic origin, for example, peanut oil, soybean oil, mineral oil, sesame oil, and the like. Water, saline, aqueous dextrose, and glycols are preferred liquid carriers, particularly for injectable solutions. Suitable pharmaceutical carriers include starch, cellulose, talc, glucose, lactose, sucrose, gelatin, malt, rice, flour, chalk, silica gel, magnesium stearate, sodium stearate, glycerol monostearate, sodium chloride, dried skim milk, glycerol, propylene glycol, water, ethanol, and the like. Other suitable pharmaceutical carriers and their formulations are described in "Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences" by E. W. Martin.
If desired, the pharmaceutical composition to be administered may also contain minor amounts of non-toxic auxiliary substances such as wetting or emulsifying agents, pH buffering agents and the like, such as for example, sodium acetate, sorbitan monolaurate, triethanolamine oleate, etc.
The compounds of this invention are generally administered as a pharmaceutical composition which comprises a pharmaceutical excipient in combination with a compound of Formula I. The level of the drug in a formulation can vary within the full range employed by those skilled in the art, e.g., from about 0.01 percent weight (% w) to about 99.99% w of the drug based on the total formulation and about 0.01% w to 99.99% w excipient. Preferably, the formulation will be about 3.5 to 60% by weight of the pharmaceutically active compound, with the rest being suitable pharmaceutical excipients.
Intravenous Administration
Intravenous injection has proven to be an important route of administration for therapeutic agents. The compounds of the present invention can be administered via this route, for example, by dissolving the compound, salt, ester or ether in a suitable solvent (such as water or saline) or incorporation in a liposomal formulation followed, by dispersal into an acceptable infusion fluid. A typical daily dose of a compound of the invention can be administered by one infusion, or by a series of infusions spaced over periodic intervals.
Oral Administration
Oral administration can be used to deliver the compound of Formula I using a convenient daily dosage regimen which can be adjusted according to the degree of affliction or for renal impairment, or to compensate for the toxic effects of other medications administered contemporaneously. For such oral administration, a pharmaceutically acceptable, non-toxic composition is formed by the incorporation of any of the normally employed excipients, such as, for example, pharmaceutical grades of mannitol, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, sodium saccharine, talcum, cellulose, glucose, gelatin, sucrose, magnesium carbonate, and the like. Such compositions take the form of solutions, suspensions, tablets, pills, capsules, powders, sustained release formulations and the like. Such compositions may contain between 0.01 wt/wt % and 99.99 wt/wt % of the compound of Formula I, but preferably such compositions will contain between 25 wt/wt % and about 80 wt/wt %.
Preferably the compositions will take the form of a capsule, pill or tablet and thus the composition will contain, along with the active ingredient, a diluent such as lactose, sucrose, dicalcium phosphate, and the like; a disintegrant such as starch or derivatives thereof; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate and the like; and a binder such as a starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone, gum acacia, gelatin, cellulose and derivatives thereof, and the like. For oral administration to infants, a liquid formulation (such as a syrup or suspension) is preferred.
Aerosol Administration
Aerosol administration is an effective means for delivering a therapeutic agent directly to the respiratory tract. Some of the advantages of this method are: 1) it circumvents the effects of enzymatic degradation, poor absorption from the gastrointestinal tract, or loss of the therapeutic agent to the hepatic first-pass effect; 2) it administers therapeutic agents which would otherwise fail to reach their target sites in the respiratory tract due to their molecular size, charge or affinity to extra-pulmonary sites; 3) it provides for fast absorption into the body via the aveoli of the lungs; and 4) it avoids exposing other organ systems to the therapeutic agent, which is important where exposure might cause undesirable side effects. For these reasons, aerosol administration is particularly advantageous for treatment of asthma, local infections of the lung, and other diseases or disease conditions of the lung and respiratory tract.
There are three types of pharmaceutical inhalation devices, nebulizers inhalers, metered-dose inhalers (MDI) and dry powder inhalers (DPI). Nebulizer devices produce a stream of high velocity air that causes the therapeutic agent (which has been formulated in a liquid form) to spray as a mist which is carried into the patient's respiratory tract. MDIs typically have the formulation packaged with a compressed gas. Upon actuation, the device discharges a measure amount of therapeutic agent by compressed gas, thus affording a reliable method of administering a set amount of agent. Historically, MDIs have used chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) as the compressed gas to propel the therapeutic agent. In recent years, CFCs have been linked with the depletion of the earth's ozone layer. As a result of this, alternative propellants that are non-ozone threatening are being sought out as potential replacements for CFCs.
DPIs administer therapeutic agents in the form of a free flowing powder that can be dispersed in the patient's inspiratory air-stream during breathing by the device. In order to achieve a free flowing powder, the therapeutic agent is formulated with an excipient, such as lactose. A measured amount of the therapeutic is stored in a capsule form and is dispensed to with each actuation. Examples of DPIs being used are Spinbaler.RTM. (for the administration of disodium cromoglycate), Rotahaler.RTM. (for albuterol) and Turbuhaler.RTM. (for terbutaline sulfate). All of the above methods can be used for administering the present invention, particularly for the treatment of asthma and other similar or related respiratory tract disorders.
Liposomal Formulations
Pharmaceutical formulations based on liposomes have recently reached human clinical trials. Their benefits are believed related to favorable changes in tissue distribution and pharmacokinetic parameters that result from liposome entrapment of drugs, and may be applied to the compounds of the present invention by those skilled in the art.
The formulations can be designed to either target drug to disease sites �see: Lopez-Berestein et al., J. Infect. Dis., 151: 704-710 (1985); Gotfredsen et al., Biochemical Pharmacology, 32: 3389-3396 (1983)!; or to the reticuloendothelial system �see Eppstein et al., Int. J. Immunotherapy, 2: 115-126 (1986)!, to increase duration of drug action �see: Gabizon et al., Cancer Res., 42: 4734 (1982); Eppstein et al., Delivery Systems for Peptide Drugs, Eds. S. S. Davis, L. Illum and E. Tomlinson, Plenum Pub. Corp., New York, pp. 277-283; C. A. Hunt, Biochemica et Biophysica Acta., 719: 450-463 (1982); and Senior et al., Biochemica et Biophysica Acta., 839: 1-8 (1985)!, or to divert a drug away from organs that are particularly sensitive to its toxic effects �see: Weinstein et al., Pharmac. Ther., 24: 207-233 (1983); Olson et al., Eur. J. Cancer Clin. Oncol., 18: 167-176 (1982); and Gabzion et al., supra.!.
Controlled release liposomal liquid pharmaceutical formulations for injection or oral administration are described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,016,100. Liposomal applications for oral drug delivery of a lyophilized liposome/peptide drug mixture filled into intestine capsules have also been suggested, see U.S. Pat. No. 4,348,384. The foregoing are incorporated herein by reference.
Suppositories
For systemic administration via suppository, traditional binders and carriers include, for example, polyalkaline glycol or triglycerides �e.g., PEG 1000 (96%) and PEG 4000 (4%)!. Such suppositories may be formed from mixtures containing active ingredients in the range of from about 0.5 wt/wt % to about 10 wt/wt %; preferably from about 1 wt/wt % to about 2 wt/wt %.
Liquids
Liquid pharmaceutically administrable compositions can, for example, be prepared by dissolving, dispersing, etc. an active compound (about 0.5% to about 20%), as described above, and optional pharmaceutical adjuvants in a carrier, such as, for example, water, saline, aqueous dextrose, glycerol, ethanol and the like, to thereby form a solution or suspension.
Actual methods of preparing such dosage forms are known, or will be apparent, to those skilled in this art; for example, see Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., 16th Ed., 1980. The composition to be administered will, in any event, contain a quantity of the active compound(s) in a pharmaceutically effective amount for relief of the particular condition being treated in accordance with the teachings of this invention.

Determination of Immunosuppressive Activity Utilizing The Hemolytic Plaque Forming Cell Assay
This procedure is a modification of "The agar plaque technique for recognizing antibody producing cells," a procedure initially described by Jerne, et al. �Cell-bound Antibodies, Amos and Kaprowski editors (Wistar Institute Press, Philadelphia, 1963) p. 109!.
Groups of 5-6 adult C3H female mice were sensitized with 1.25.times.10.sup.8 sheep red blood cells (SRBC) and simultaneously treated with an oral dosage form of the test material in an aqueous vehicle. Animals in a control group receive the same volume of vehicle. Four days after SRBC inoculation, spleens are dispersed in glass homogenizers. The number of nucleated cells (WBC) is determined and the spleen cell suspension is mixed with SRBC, guinea pig complement and agar solution at 0.5% concentration. Aliquots of the above mixture (0.1 ml) are dropped on four separate quadrants of a Petri dish and are covered with cover slips. After two hours incubation at 37.degree. C., areas of hemolysis around plaque-forming cells (PFC) are counted with a dissecting microscope. Total WBC/spleen, PFC/spleen and PFC/10.sup.6 WBC (PPM) are calculated for each mouse spleen. Geometric means of each treatment group are then compared with the vehicle-treated control group.
The compounds of the present invention show immunosuppressive activity when tested by this method.
