References hereinafter to a compound according to the invention includes both compounds of formula (I) and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts and solvates.

The compounds of the invention are potent and specific antagonists of gastrin and/or CCK. The compounds of the invention have been shown to be antagonists of CCK, particularly at CCK-B receptors as demonstrated for example by the compound's ability to inhibit the contractile actions of CCK-4 in the presence of a CCK-A antagonist, in the guinea-pig isolated ileum longitudinal muscle-myenteric plexus.
The compounds of the invention have also been shown to be antagonists of gastrin as demonstrated by their ability to inhibit pentagastrin-stimulated acid secretion from rat isolated gastric mueosa using the procedure described by J. J. Reeves and R. Stables in Br. J. Pharmac., 1985, 86, p. 677-684.
Compounds of the invention have also been found to have a significantly weaker activity at CCK-A receptors compared with their activity at gastrin and/or CCK-B receptors, as demonstrated by their ability to inhibit the contractile activity of CCK-8 in guinea-pig isolated ileum longitudinal muscle-myenteric plexus.
The preparation and use of guinea-pig isolated ileum longitudinal muscle-myenteric plexus has been described by K-H Buchheit et al in Nauyn-Schmeideberg's Arch. Pharmacol, (1985), 329, p36-41 and by V. L. Lucaites et al (1991) in J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 256, 695-703.
The greater affinity of the compounds of the invention for the CCK-B receptor over the CCK-A receptor has also been established using the CCK receptor binding assays described by G Dal Fornos et al., J. Pharmcol. Exp & Ther. 261, 1056-1063, 1992.
The compounds of the invention are therefore useful for the treatment and/or prevention of disorders in mammals, especially humans, where modification of the effects of gastrin or CCK is of therapeutic benefit. Thus the compounds of the invention are useful for the treatment of central nervous system disorders where CCK and/or gastrin are involved. For example anxiety disorders (including panic disorder, agoraphobia, social phobia, simple phobia, obsessive compulsive disorders, post traumatic stress disorder, and general anxiety disorder), tardive dyskinesia, depression, Parkinson's disease or psychosis. The compounds of the invention are also useful for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders especially those where there is an advantage in lowering gastric acidity. Such disorders include peptic ulceration, reflux oesophagitis and Zollinger Ellison syndrome. They may also be useful for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome, excess pancreatic secretion, acute pancreatitis, motility disorders, antral G cell hyperplasia, fundic mucosal hyperplasia or gastrointestinal neoplasms. They may also be useful for the treatment of dependency on drugs or substances of abuse and withdrawal, Gilles de la Tourette syndrome, or dysfunction of appetite regulatory systems; as well as the treatment of certain rumours of the lower oesophagus, stomach, intestines and colon. Compounds of the invention are also useful for directly inducing analgesia, or enhancing opiate or non-opiate mediated analgesia, as well as anaesthesia or loss of the sensation of pain.
The invention therefore provides a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof for use in therapy, in particular in human medicine.
According to another aspect the invention provides the use of a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of conditions where modification of the effects of gastrin and/or CCK is of therapeutic benefit.
According to a further aspect of the invention we provide a method for the treatment of a mammal, including man, in particular in the treatment of conditions where modification of the effects of gastrin and/or CCK is of therapeutic benefit which method comprises administering an effective amount of a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof to the patient.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that reference herein to treatment extends to prophylaxis as well as the treatment of established diseases or symptoms.
It will further be appreciated that the amount of a compound of the invention required for use in treatment will vary with the nature of the condition being treated and the age and the condition of the patient and will be ultimately at the discretion of the attendant physician or veterinarian. In general however doses employed for adult human treatment will typically be in the range of 0.01-2000 mg per day e.g. 0.01-500 mg per day.
The desired dose 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.
Because the compounds of the invention antagonise the function of CCK in animals, they may also be used as feed additives to increase the food intake in animals in daily dosages of around 1 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg.
While it is possible that, for use in therapy, a compound of the invention may be administered as the raw chemical it is preferable to present the active ingredient as a pharmaceutical formulation.
The invention thus further provides a pharmaceutical formulation comprising a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable careers therefor and, optionally, other therapeutic and/or prophylactic ingredients. The carrier(s) must be `acceptable` in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious to the recipient thereof.
The compositions of the invention include those in a form especially formulated for oral, buccal, parenteral, implant, or rectal administration. Oral administration is preferred.
Tablets and capsules for oral administration may contain conventional excipients such as binding agents, for example, syrup, accacia, gelatin, sorbitol, tragacanth, hydroxypropyl cellulose, mucilage of starch or polyvinylpyrrolidone; fillers, for example, lactose, sugar, microcrystalline cellulose, maize-starch, calcium phosphate or sorbitol; lubricants, for example, hydrogenated vegetable oils, magnesium stearate, stearic acid, talc, polyethylene glycol or silica; disintegrants, for example, potato starch or sodium starch glycollate, or wetting agents such as sodium lauryl sulphate. The tablets may be coated according to methods well known in the art. Oral liquid preparations may be in the form of, for example, aqueous or oily suspensions, solutions emulsions, syrups or elixirs, or may be presented as a dry product for constitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may contain conventional additives such as suspending agents, for example, sorbitol syrup, methyl cellulose, glucose/sugar syrup, gelatin, hydroxyethylcellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, aluminium stearate gel or hydrogenated edible fats; emulsifying agents, for example, lecithin, sorbitan mono-oleate or acacia; non-aqueous vehicles (which may include edible oils), for example, almond oil, fractionated coconut oil, oily esters, propylene glycol or ethyl alcohol; and preservatives, for example, methyl or propyl p-hydroxybenzoates or sorbic acid. The compositions may also be formulated as suppositories, e.g. containing conventional suppository bases such as cocoa butter or other glycerides.
For buccal administration the composition may take the form of tablets or lozenges formulated in conventional manner.
The composition according to the invention may be formulated for parenteral administration by injection or continuous infusion. Formulations for injection may be presented in unit dose form in prefilled syringes, vials and ampoules, or in multi-dose containers with an added preservative. The compositions may take such forms as suspensions, solutions, or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and may contain formulatory agents such as suspending stabilising and/or dispersing agents. Alternatively the active ingredient may be in powder form which may be obtained by freeze drying for constitution with a suitable vehicle, e.g. sterile, pyrogen-free water, before use. The composition according to the invention may also be formulated as a depot preparation. Such long acting formulations may be administered by implantation (for example subcutaneously or intramuscularly) or by intramuscular injection. Thus for example, the compounds of the invention may be formulated with suitable polymeric or hydrophobic materials (for example as an emulsion in an acceptable oil) or ion exchange resins, or as sparingly soluble derivatives, for example, as a sparingly soluble salt.
The compositions according to the invention may contain between 0.1-99% of the active ingredient, conveniently from 30-95% for tablets and capsules and 3-50% for liquid preparations.
Compounds of general formula (I) and salts thereof may be prepared by the general methods outlined hereinafter. In the following description, the groups R.sup.1 -R.sup.10 are as defined for the compounds of formula (I) unless otherwise stated.
According to a first general process (A) compounds of formula (I) may be prepared by reacting a compound of formula (II) wherein the groups R.sup.1, R.sup.3 and R.sup.10 have the meanings defined above for formula (I). ##STR4## with the appropriate haloformate (III) R.sup.2 OCOZ, wherein Z is halogen e.g. chlorine or bromine and R.sup.2 has the meanings defined above in formula (I). The reaction is preferably carded out in the presence of a base such as a tertiary amine, e.g. triethylamine or pyridine in a solvent such as a halohydrocabon e.g. dichloromethane and at a temperature within the range 0.degree.-500.degree..
Compounds of formula (II) may be prepared by reduction of compounds of formula (III) ##STR5## wherein W is CH--N.sub.3 or C.dbd.N--NHPh.
Compounds of formula (HI) wherein W is CH-N.sub.3 may be reduced to a compound of formula (II) by hydrogenation in the presence of a suitable catalyst such as palladium, on a support such as carbon or calcium carbonate, or platinum (IV) oxide. The reaction conveniently takes place in the presence of a solvent such as an alkanol (e.g. ethanol) an ester (e.g. ethyl acetate) or acetic acid.
Compounds of formula (III) wherein W is C.dbd.N-NHPh may be reduced to a compound of formula (II) by reaction with zinc and acetic acid. This reaction may be carried out a temperature with the range 0.degree.-500.degree..
Compounds of formula (HI) wherein W is CHN.sub.3 may be prepared from a compound of formula (II) wherein W is CH.sub.2 by treatment with a strong base such as sodium hydride or potassium tert-butoxide followed by tri-isopropyl benzenesulphonyl azide. The reaction conveniently takes place in a solvent such as an ether (e.g. tetrahydrofuran) at a temperature in the range of -78.degree. to 200.degree..
Compounds of formula (III) in which W is C.dbd.NNHPh may be prepared by reaction of the ortho-phenylenediamine (IV) with the diacid chloride (V), in a suitable solvent such as an ether e.g. tetrahydorfuran ##STR6##
Compounds of formula (HI) wherein W is CH.sub.2 prepared by reaction of the corresponding compound (VI) ##STR7## with a compound R.sup.1 Y where Y is halogen (e.g. a chlorine or bromine atom) or a mesylate group under strongly basic conditions. Thus the reaction may conveniently be carried out by pretreating the compound of formula (VI) with a strong base such as sodium hydride in a suitable aprotic solvent such as an amide (e.g. N,N-dimethylformamide) at a temperature ranging from 0.degree. to reflux.
In the above described reaction scheme when the group R.sup.1 contains an hydroxyl group then this may be present in a protected form e.g. as an ether such as an arylmethyl ether e.g. a benzyl ether.
Compounds of formula (IV) are either known compounds or may be prepared by analogous methods. Thus for example a compound of formula (IV) may be prepared by alkylation of the amine (VII). ##STR8## Thus the amine (VII) may be reacted with the compound R.sup.1 Y, in which Y is chlorine or bromine, optionally in the presence of sodium iodide in a solvent such as N,N-dimethylformamide.
Compounds of formula (IV) wherein R.sup.1 represents the group --CH.sub.2 --CH(OH)R.sup.1.sub.a where R.sup.1.sub.a is a C.sub.1-4 alkyl group may be prepared by reaction of compound (VII) with the epoxide (VIII) in a solvent such as an alkanol e.g. ethanol and in the presence of an acid catalyst such as p-toluene sulphonic acid. ##STR9## Compounds of formula (IV) where in R.sup.1 is an optionally substituted alkyl group. May also be prepared from compound (VII) by reaction with a suitable aldehyde or ketone with concomitant or subsequent reduction of the reaction product. Thus for example a compound formula (IV) wherein R.sup.1 is 2-(4-methylpentyl) may be prepared from compound (VII) by reaction with methylisobutyl ketone followed by reaction with sodium borohydride.
In general, the compounds of formula (III), (IV), (VI) and (VII) are either known compounds or may be prepared according to methods used for the preparation of known compounds,
According to a further process (B) a compound of formula (I) may be converted into another compound of formula (I) using conventional techniques. Thus the compounds of formula (I) wherein R.sup.2 is a phenyl group substituted by a carboxyl group may be prepared by hydrolysis of the corresponding compound of formula (I) wherein R.sup.2 is phenyl substituted by alkoxycarbonyl.
In the processes described above the group R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 in the intermediates II, III, V and VI may be a group as defined in formula (I) or a group convertible thereto. Thus compounds of formula (I) wherein R.sup.1 represents an alkyl group substituted by hydroxy may be prepared from the corresponding compounds of formula (I) when R.sup.1 represents an acylalkyl group by reduction using a metal hydride such as sodium borohydride. The reaction is preferably carried out in an alkanol (e.g. methanol).
The foregoing series of reactions involve a number of alternative pathways which may start with the 1,5-benzodiazepine of formula (X) as defined above. Thus according to a further general process (C) a compound of formula (I) may be prepared by reacting a compound of formula (X) in one or more stages with reagents serving to introduce the groups R.sup.1 and NHCOOR.sup.2.
Compounds of formula (I) contain at least one asymmetric carbon atom, namely the carbon atom of the diazepine ring to which the substituted urea grouping is attached. Specific enantiomers of the compounds of formula (I) may be obtained by resolution of the racemic compound using conventional procedures such as the use of chiral HPLC. Alternatively the required enantiomer may be prepared by the corresponding enantiomeric amine of formula (II) using any of the processes described above for preparing compounds of formula (I) from the amine (II). The enantiomers of the amine (II) may be prepared from the racemic amine (I) using conventional procedures such as salt formation with a suitably optically active acid.
