1. Field of Invention
The invention is in the field of novel coumarins, thiocoumarins, and glycosylated coumarins, and their use as inhibitors of carbonic anhydrase IX and XII, in the treatment of hypoxic and metastatic cancer.
2. Description of Related Art
Carbonic anhydrases are involved in numerous physiological and pathological processes in mammals, including respiration and transport of CO2/bicarbonate between metabolizing tissues and lungs, pH and CO2 homeostasis, electrolyte secretion in a variety of tissues/organs, biosynthetic reactions (e.g., gluconeogenesis, lipogenesis and ureagenesis), bone resorption, calcification, tumorigenicity, and many other physiological and pathological processes studied in humans, as well as the growth and virulence of various fungal/bacterial pathogens.2,4-11 In addition to the established role of CA inhibitors (CAIs) as diuretics and antiglaucoma drugs, it has recently emerged that they have potential as anticonvulsant, antiobesity, anticancer and antiinfective drugs.2,4-11 Many of the mammalian CA isozymes involved in these processes are important therapeutic targets with the potential to be inhibited or activated to treat a wide range of disorders.2,4 However a critical barrier to the design of CAIs as therapeutic agents is related to the high number of isoforms in humans, their rather diffuse localization in many tissues/organs, and the lack of isozyme selectivity of the presently available inhibitors of the sulfonamide/sulfamate type.2,4
The CA family of enzymes is widespread all over the phylogenetic tree (with 16 different α-CA isozymes presently known in mammals), and is inhibited by compounds which bind to the catalytically critical Zn(II) ion from the enzyme active site (or the water/hydroxide ion coordinated to it): the sulfonamides, their bioisosteres (sulfamates, sulfamides, N-substituted sulfonamides, etc), some metal complexing anions, and (thio)phenols among others.2,4 The coumarins, such as the natural product coumarin 1 for which this effect was initially reported,1,3 do not have any obvious functionality to confer them potent CA inhibitory activity.
Coumarin 6-(1S-hydroxy-3-methylbutyl)-7-methoxy-2H-chromen-2-one and the simple, unsubstituted coumarin (see structures 1 and 2) were nonselective, potent inhibitors against all investigated human CA isoforms.
Other semisynthetic coumarin compounds have been shown to inhibit the metalloenzyme carbonic anhydrases (Maresca, A; Temperini, C; Vu, H et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2009, 131, 3057-3062; Maresca, A; Temperini, C; Pochet, L. et al. J. Med. Chem. 2010, 53, 335-344; Maresca, A; Supuran, C. Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters 2010, 20, 4511-4514).

In figures which illustrate embodiments of the invention,
Compositions, methods to prepare them, and methods to use them are provided in accordance with the invention. To clarify terminology used herein, compound designation MST-204 represents 4-methylumbellifer-7-yl-α-D-mannopyranoside. MST-205 represents 4-methylumbellifer-7-yl- -L-rhamnopyranoside. “Glycosylated coumarins” as used herein describes many of the group of compounds provided by the invention, namely a coumarin linked by an oxygen or sulfur to a monosaccharide such as allose, altrose, glucose, mannose, idose, galactose, talose, gulose, fructose, tagatose, sorvose, psicose, ribulose, xylulose, ribose, arabinose, xylose, lyxose, or deoxyribose.
As used herein the singular forms “a”, “and”, and “the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. For example, “a compound” refers to one or more of such compounds, while “the enzyme” includes a particular enzyme as well as other family members and equivalents thereof as known to those skilled in the art.
“Alkyl” is a monovalent, saturated or unsaturated, straight, branched or cyclic, aliphatic (i.e., not aromatic) hydrocarbon group. In various embodiments, the alkyl group has 1-20 carbon atoms, i.e., is a C1-C20 (or C1-C20) group, or is a C1-C18 group, a C1-C12 group, a C1-C6 group, or a C1-C4 group. Independently, in various embodiments, the alkyl group has: zero branches (i.e., is a straight chain), one branch, two branches, or more than two branches; is saturated; is unsaturated (where an unsaturated alkyl group may have one double bond, two double bonds, more than two double bonds, and/or one triple bond, two triple bonds, or more than three triple bonds); is, or includes, a cyclic structure; or is acyclic. Exemplary alkyl groups include C1 alkyl (i.e., —CH3 (methyl)), C2 alkyl (i.e., —CH2CH3 (ethyl)) and C3 alkyl (i.e., —CH2CH2CH3 (n-propyl), —CH(CH3)2 (i-propyl) and —CH(CH2)2(cyclopropyl)).
“Alkenyl” is a specie of alkyl group, where an alkenyl group has at least one carbon-carbon double bond. Exemplary alkyl groups include C2 alkenyl (i.e., —CH═CH2 (ethenyl)) and C3 alkenyl (i.e., —CH═CH—CH3 (1-propenyl), —CH2—CH═CH2 (2-propenyl), and —C(CH3)═CH2 (1-methylethenyl)).
“Alkynyl” is a specie of alkyl group, where an alkynyl group has a least one carbon-carbon triple bond. Exemplary alkyl groups include —C≡CH (ethynyl)) and —C≡C—CH3 (1-propynyl), and —CH2—C≡CH (2-propynyl)).
“Cycloalkyl” indicates a carbocyclic aryl group selected from phenyl, substituted phenyl, naphthyl, and substituted naphthyl. Suitable substituents on a phenyl or naphthyl ring include C1-C6 alkyl, C1-C6 alkoxy, carboxyl, carbonyl(C1-C6)alkoxy, halogen, hydroxyl, nitro, —SO3H, and amino. Cycloalkyl can include “Arylenes” which are polyvalent, aromatic hydrocarbons, ring system. The ring system may be monocyclic or fused polycyclic (e.g., bicyclic, tricyclic, etc.). In various embodiments, the monocyclic arylene group is C5-C10, or C5-C7, or C5-C6, where these carbon numbers refer to the number of carbon atoms that form the ring system. The arylene group may be divalent, i.e., it has two open sites that each bond to another group
“Aryl” is a monovalent, aromatic, hydrocarbon, ring system. The ring system may be monocyclic or fused polycyclic (e.g., bicyclic, tricyclic, etc.). In various embodiments, the monocyclic aryl ring is C5-C10, or C5-C7, or C5-C6, where these carbon numbers refer to the number of carbon atoms that form the ring system. A C6 ring system, i.e., a phenyl ring, is a preferred aryl group. In various embodiments, the polycyclic ring is a bicyclic aryl group, where preferred bicyclic aryl groups are C8-C12, or C9-C10. A naphthyl ring, which has 10 carbon atoms, is a preferred polycyclic aryl group.
“Heteroalkyl” is an alkyl group (as defined herein) wherein at least one of the carbon atoms is replaced with a heteroatom. Preferred heteroatoms are nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, and halogen. A heteroatom may, but typically does not, have the same number of valence sites as carbon. Accordingly, when a carbon is replaced with a heteroatom, the number of hydrogens bonded to the heteroatom may need to be increased or decreased to match the number of valence sites of the heteroatom. For instance, if carbon (valence of four) is replaced with nitrogen (valence of three), then one of the hydrogens formerly attached to the replaced carbon must be deleted. Likewise, if carbon is replaced with halogen (valence of one), then three (i.e., all) of the hydrogens formerly bonded to the replaced carbon must be deleted. As another example, trifluoromethyl is a heteroalkyl group wherein the three methyl groups of a t-butyl group are replaced by fluorine.
“Heteroatom” is a halogen, nitrogen, oxygen, silicon or sulfur atom. Groups containing more than one heteroatom may contain different heteroatoms.
A sugar may be a monosaccharide or a disaccharide. Monosaccharides are the simplest carbohydrates in that they cannot be hydrolyzed to smaller carbohydrates. They are aldehydes or ketones with two or more hydroxyl groups. The general chemical formula of a monosaccharide is (C.H2O)n, with n≧3. Examples of monosaccharides include glucose (an aldohexose), fructose (ketohexose), and ribose (an aldopentose).
Each carbon atom bearing a hydroxyl group (—OH), with the exception of the first and last carbons, are asymmetric, making them stereocenters with two possible configurations each (R or S). Because of this asymmetry, a number of isomers may exist for any given monosaccharide formula. The assignment of D or L is made according to the orientation of the asymmetric carbon furthest from the carbonyl group: in a standard Fischer projection if the hydroxyl group is on the right the molecule is a D sugar, otherwise it is an L sugar.
Glucose can exist in both a straight-chain and ring form. The aldehyde or ketone group of a straight-chain monosaccharide will react reversibly with a hydroxyl group on a different carbon atom to form a heterocyclic ring with an oxygen bridge between two carbon atoms. Rings with five and six atoms are called furanose and pyranose forms, respectively, and exist in equilibrium with the straight-chain form.
“Azido sugars” are sugars are sugars wherein an hydroxy grouup has been replaced by an azido, or N3 group.
When X═O the main categories involved are:
Allose, altrose, glucose, mannose, idose, galactose, talose, gulose, fructose, tagatose, sorbose, psicose, ribulose, Xylulose, ribose, arabinose, xylose, lyxose, and deoxyribose.
As used herein, and unless otherwise specified, the term heterocyclic encompasses both substituted and unsubstituted carbocyclic and heterocyclic groups. In one embodiment, the substitution present on a carbocyclic or heterocyclic group is selected from alkyl, heteroalkyl, aryl, and heteroaryl, preferably alkyl and heteroalkyl.
“Pharmaceutically acceptable salt” and “salts thereof” in the compounds of the present invention refers to acid addition salts and base addition salts.
Acid addition salts refer to those salts formed from compounds of the present invention and inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid and the like, and/or organic acids such as acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid and the like.
Base addition salts refer to those salts formed from compounds of the present invention and inorganic bases such as sodium, potassium, lithium, ammonium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, aluminum salts and the like. Suitable salts include the ammonium, potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium salts derived from pharmaceutically acceptable organic non-toxic bases include salts of primary, secondary, and tertiary amines, substituted amines including naturally occurring substituted amines, cyclic amines and basic ion exchange resins, such as isopropylamine, trimethylamine, diethylamine, triethylamine, tripropylamine, ethanolamine, 2-dimethylaminoethanol, 2-diethylaminoethanol, trimethamine, dicyclohexylamine, lysine, arginine, histidine, caffeine, procaines, hydrabamine, choline, betaine, ethylenediamine, glucosamine, methylglucamine, theobromine, purines, piperazine, piperidine, N-ethylpiperidine, and the like.
Briefly, the compounds of the invention derive from a new1 class of inhibitors of the metalloenzyme carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1)2, the coumarins.3
In this patent we describe classes of coumarins that are newly found to be highly efficient, potent, isoform-selective CA IX/XII inhibitors, which also demonstrate efficacy in vivo in reducing the growth of primary tumors and metastases.
The compounds of the invention are useful for the preparation of medicaments as well as in a method for the treatment of a hypoxic tumor that has CAIX or CAXII highly overexpressed. The medicament has inhibiting action toward CAIX, and particularly it is effective for reversing acidification of a hypoxic tumor and its surrounding environment.
The compounds of the invention may be compounded with known pharmaceutical excipients such as salts, water, lipids, and/or simple sugars to arrive at a formulation suitable for injection, topical application, or ingestion.
Pharmaceutically acceptable excipients make a chemical compound stable, tolerable and acceptable for human use. Half-life in circulation can be increased, or better biodistribution achieved, by use of pharmaceutical excipients. Formulations of the compounds including pharmaceutical excipients are devised, refined, and tested during the preclinical stage of drug development to ensure that the drug is compatible with any solubilizing, stabilizing, lyophilizing, or hydrating agents.
The design of any formulation involves the characterization of a drug's physical, chemical, and mechanical properties in order to choose what other ingredients should be used in the preparation.
Particle size, polymorphism, pH, and solubility, as all of these can influence bioavailability and hence the activity of a drug. The drug must be combined with inactive additives by a method which ensures that the quantity of drug present is consistent in each dosage unit e.g. each tablet.
By the time phase III clinical trials are reached, the formulation of the drug should have been developed to be close to the preparation that will ultimately be used in the market. Stability studies are carried out to test whether temperature, humidity, oxidation, or photolysis (ultraviolet light or visible light) have any effect, and the preparation is analysed to see if any degradation products have been formed.
In one embodiment, the compounds of the invention are formulated in polyethyleneglycol with ethanol and saline. In one particular embodiment, the formulation consists of 37.5% PEG400, 12.5% ethanol and 50% saline.
As used in this document, tumor may be taken to mean any primary or metastatic cancer, hypoxic tumor tissue, or malignant growth. Any tumor susceptible to hypoxia and/or metastases, particularly breast, lung, renal cancers, cervical, pancreatic, colorectal, glioblastoma, prostate and ovarian cancer may be treated according to embodiments of the invention.
Tumors susceptible to treatment will have elevated levels of CAIX or CAXII with respect to normal tissue. As demonstrated in the data, CAIX and CAXII are associated with hypoxia and metastases. Thus a hypoxic and metastatic tumor would not need to be tested to prove elevated levels of CAIX and CAXII to indicate treatment using the compounds of the invention because of the data already supporting the supposition.
Tumor growth and/or spread may be said to be suppressed by compounds of the invention, or by their use. Suppression in this application may mean induction of regression, inhibition of growth, and inhibition of spread, especially as these terms relate to tumors and cancers suffered by mammals, particularly humans.
Typical chemotherapeutic agents including, but not limited to docetaxel, vinca alkaloids, mitoxanthrone, cisplatin, paclitaxel, 5-FU, Herceptin, Avastin, Gleevec may be used concommitally or in combination with the compounds of the invention.
Compounds of the invention may be used preoperatively, perioperatively, or post-operatively. Dosage is typically determined by dosing schemes which use patient size and weight to calculate the patient's body surface area, which correlates with blood volume, to determine initial dosing. Starting dosages are generally worked out during clinical testing of therapeutic compounds.
The background and current approaches for the clinical approach to tumor treatment may be found in Takimoto C H, Calvo E. “Principles of Oncologic Pharmacotherapy” in Pazdur R, Wagman L D, Camphausen K A, Hoskins W J (Eds) Cancer Management: A Multidisciplinary Approach. 11 ed. 2008, which is available at www.cancernetwork.com/cancer-management-11/chapter03/article/10165/1402628.
The following examples are used to illustrate aspects of the invention, but the invention is not limited to these illustrations.
Synthesis was done following and adapting procedures described by Penverne, C. and Ferrières, V. in Synthesis of 4-Methylumbellifer-7-yl-alpha-D
Although this example is given in the case of the mannose, similar procedures may be used for the synthesis of other sugar derivatives such as those shown below (glucose, galactose, rhamnose, xylose, sucrose, and ribose). Numbering (1, 2, 3, etc.) in the examples below is based on the numbering in the general synthetic scheme preceding this paragraph.

Then diazabicyclo [5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) (0.86×10−3 mol) was added and the mixture was stirred under N2 atmosphere at 0° C. for 30 min and concentrated under vacuum. The crude 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-D-mannopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate (3) was used without further purification in the next step.
The crude 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-D-mannopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate (3) (4.31×10−3 mol) was dissolved in dry CH2Cl2 (38 ml). 7-hydroxy-4-methyl coumarin (4) (4.31×10−3 mol) and boron trifluoride metherate (BF3.Me2O) (0.86×10−3 mol) were then added and the mixture was stirred under N2 atmosphere at room temperature over night. 20 ml of CH2Cl2 were further added and the solution was washed with water, dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and concentrated under vacuum. The crude product (5) was then purified by crystallization from MeOH or by silica gel column chromatography (EP/AcOEt v/v 5/5).
The 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-D-mannopyranosyl coumarin (5) (0.59×10−3 mol) was added to a solution of MeONa (0.88×10−3 mol) in dry MeOH (5 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 min. The product (6) was then purified by crystallization or by silica gel column chromatography (EP/AcOEt v/v 5/5) to provide:

For the IN VIVO examples, the following methods and additional information will be a useful reference.
For in vivo studies, the inhibitors were administered by intraperitoneal injection. The compounds were solubilized in 37.5% PEG400/12.5% ethanol/50% saline prior to injection. Inhibitor concentrations ranged from 4.5 mM to 12 mM. The exact concentrations used were dependent on the upper limit of solubility of a particular inhibitor in the PEG400/ethanol/saline vehicle. Inhibitor concentrations were converted to mg/kg for in vivo administration and are reported as such in the examples. Conversion to mg/kg was based on a 200 μl injection volume for a 20 g mouse. Vehicle components were held constant as inhibitor concentrations were varied. Inhibitors were administered daily for 5-6 days and images were acquired 24 hours following the final dose.
All animal procedures were done in accordance with protocols approved by the Institution Animal Care Committee at the BC Cancer Research Centre and The University of British Columbia (Vancouver, BC, Canada). Progression of metastases was monitored and quantified using non-invasive in vivo bioluminescent imaging (IVIS) as previously described (Lou, Y., Preobrazhenska, O., auf dem Keller, U., et al. (2008) Dev Dyn 237: 2755-2768). Mice were monitored daily and moribund animals were sacrificed in accordance with ethical guidelines. For studies involving experimental lung metastasis, mice were injected intravenously through the tail vein with 2×105 cells per animal. Mice were imaged once per week to follow the establishment and growth of lung metastases. Mice were euthanized by 20 days post-injection. Tumor burden in the lung was quantified using bioluminescence data acquired by imaging with IVIS.
Results were subjected to statistical analysis using the Data Analysis ToolPack™ in Excel software. Two-tailed p values were calculated using Student's t-test. Data were considered significant for p<0.05.
In Vivo Metastases Inhibition with Novel Glycosylcoumarin MST-204
4T1 cells injected intravenously form robust lung metastases and subject mice have to be euthanized within 3 weeks post injection due to metastatic progression. Novel CAIX inhibitor MST-204 reduced the formation of metastases by 4T1 mammary tumor cells. In
In Vivo Metastases Inhibition with Novel Glycosylcoumarin MST-205
MST-205 inhibits the formation of metastases by 4T1 mammary tumor cells. Animals were treated 24 hours post inoculation of cells. The inhibitor was administered daily by i.p. injection for 6 days and the mice were imaged 24 hours following the final dose of inhibitor. MST-205 was delivered in a vehicle comprised of 37.5% PEG400, 12.5% ethanol and 50% saline. Mice dosed with vehicle alone served as controls. Representative bioluminescent images of metastases established following intravenous injection of 2×105 4T1 cells and treatment with MST-205 (
4T1 cells (1×106 cells/mouse) were orthotopically implanted into female BALB/c mice and tumors were allowed to establish for 14 days. Animals then received MST-205 daily by i.p. injection for 14 days. MST-205 was delivered in a vehicle comprised of 37.5% PEG400, 12.5% ethanol and 50% saline. Tumor growth was monitored 2 times per week by caliper-based measurement. Treatment initiation and termination are indicated by arrows. Vehicle-treated animals served as controls. n=8 for each group. *P<0.01, **P<0.003, compared to vehicle controls. Results are shown in
