Cholecystokinin antagonists, their preparation and therapeutic use

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Agents acting at central cholecystokinin (CCK) receptors may induce satiety (Schick, Yaksh, and Go, Regulatory Peptides 14:277-291, 1986). They are also expected to act as analgesics (Hill, Hughes, and Pittaway, Neuropharmacology 26:289-300, 1987), and as anticonvulsants (MacVicar, Kerrin, and Davison, Brain Research 406:130-135, 1987).
Reduced levels of CCK-peptides have been found in the brains of schizophrenic patients compared with controls (Roberts, Ferrier, Lee, Crow, Johnstone, Owens, Bacarese-Hamilton, McGregor, O'Shaughnessey, Polak, and Bloom, Brain Research 288:199-211, 1983). It has been proposed that changes in the activity of CCK neurones projecting to the nucleus accumbens may play a role in schizophrenic processes by influencing dopaminergic function (Totterdell and Smith, Neuroscience 19:181-192, 1986). This is consistent with numerous reports that CCK peptides modulate dopaminergic function in the basal ganglia and particularly the nucleus accumbens (Weiss, Tanzer, and Ettenberg, Pharmacology, Biochemistry and Behaviour 30:309-317, 1988; Schneider, Allpert, and Iversen, Peptides 4:749-753, 1983). It may therefore be expected that agents modifying CCK receptor activity may have therapeutic value in conditions associated with disturbed function of central dopaminergic function such as schizophrenia and Parkinson's disease.
CCK and gastrin peptides share a common carboxy. terminal pentapeptide sequence and CCK peptides can bind to the gastrin receptor of the stomach mucosa and elicit acid secretion in many species including human (Konturek, Gastrointestinal Hormones, Ch. 23, pp 529-564, 1980, ed. G. B. J. Glass, Raven Press, NY). Antagonists of the CCK-B receptor would also be expected to be antagonists at the stomach gastrin receptor and this would also be of value for conditions involving excessive acid secretion.
CCK and gastrin peptides have trophic effects on the pancreas and various tissues of the gastrointestinal tract (Johnson, ibid., pp 507-527), actions which are associated with increased DNA and RNA synthesis. Moreover, gastrin secreting cells are associated with certain gastrointestinal tumors as in the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (Stadil, ibid., pp 729-739), and some colorectal tumors may also be gastrin/CCK dependent (Singh, Walker, Townsend, and Thompson, Cancer Research 46:1612, 1986; Smith, J. P., Gastroenterology 95:1541, 1988). Antagonists of CCK/gastrin receptors could therefore be of therapeutic value as antitumor agents.
The CCK peptides are widely distributed in various organs of the body including the gastrointestinal tract, endocrine glands, and the nerves of the peripheral and central nervous systems. Various biologically active forms have been identified including a 33-amino acid hormone and various carboxyl-terminus fragments of this peptide (e.g., the octapeptide CCK26-33 and the tetrapeptide CCK30-33). (G. J. Dockray, Br. Med. Bull. 38(3):253-258, 1982).
The various CCK peptides are thought to be involved in the control of smooth muscle contractility, exocrine and endocrine gland secretion, sensory nerve transmission, and numerous brain functions. Administration of the native peptides cause gall bladder contraction, amylase secretion, excitation of central neurons, inhibition of feeding, anticonvulsive actions and other behavioral effects. (Cholecystokinin: Isolation, Structure and Functions, G. B. J. Glass, Ed., Raven Press, New York, 1980, pp 169-221; J. E. Morley, Life Sciences 27:355-368, 1980; Cholecystokinin in the Nervous System, J. de Belleroche and G. J. Dockray, Ed., Ellis Horwood, Chichester, England, 1984, pp 110-127.)
The high concentrations of CCK peptides in many brain areas also indicate major brain functions for these peptides (G. J. Dockray, Br. Med. Bull. 38(3):253-258, 1982). The most abundant form of brain CCK found is CCK26-33, although small quantities of CCK30-33 exist (Rehfeld and Gotterman, J. Neurochem. 32:1339-1341, 1979). The role of central nervous system CCK is not known with certainty, but it has been implicated in the control of feeding (Della-Fera and Baile, Science 206:471-473, 1979).
Currently available appetite suppressant drugs either act peripherally, by increasing energy expenditure (such as thyroxine), or in some other manner (such as the biguanides), or act by exerting a central effect on appetite or satiety.
Centrally acting appetite suppressants either potentiate central catecholamine pathways and tend to be stimulants (for example, amphetamine), or influence serotonergic pathways (for example, fenfluramine). Other forms of drug therapy include bulking agents which act by filling the stomach, thereby inducing a "feeling" of satiety.
CCK is known to be present in some cortical inter- neurones which also contain gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) (H. Demeulemeester et al, J. Neuroscience 8:988-1000, 1988). Agents that modify GABA action may have utility as anxiolytic or hypnotic agents (S. C. Harvey, The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics (7th ed.) 1985, pp 339-371, MacMillan). Thus, agents which modify CCK action may have parallel anxiolytic or hypnotic activities. The role of CCK in anxiety is disclosed in TIPS 11:271-273, 1990, and is fully detailed in Woodruff, G. N. and Hughes, J., 1991, Ann. Rev. Pharmacol. and Toxicol. 31, 469-501.

The compounds of the present invention can have multiple chiral centers including those designated in the above formula I by the symbol .dagger., depending on their structures. For example, when R.sup.3 taken with R.sup.4 and R.sup.12 taken with R.sup.13 form double bonds to their carbon atoms, they are no longer chiral. In addition, centers of asymmetry may exist on the other substituents. In particular, the compounds of the present invention may exist as diastereomers, mixtures of diastereomers, or as the mixed or the individual optical enantiomers. The present invention contemplates all such forms of the compounds. The mixtures of diastereomers are typically obtained as a result of the reactions described more fully below. Individual diastereomers may be separated from mixtures of the diastereomers by conventional techniques such as column chromatography or repetitive recrystallizations. Individual enantiomers may be separated by convention method well known in the art such as conversion to a salt with an optically active compound, followed by separation by chromatography or recrystallization and reconversion to the nonsalt form.
The compounds of the present invention can be formed by coupling individual substituted .alpha.-amino acids by methods well known in the art. (See, for example, standard synthetic methods discussed in the multi-volume treatise "The Peptides, Analysis, Synthesis, Biology," by Gross and Meienhofer, Academic Press, New York.) The individual substituted alpha amino acid starting materials are generally known or, if not known, may be synthesized and, if desired, resolved by methods within the skill of the art. (Synthesis of racemic �DL!-.alpha.-methyl tryptophan methyl ester - see Brana, M. F., et al, J. Heterocyclic Chem., 1980, 17:829.)
A key intermediate in the preparation of compounds of formula I is a compound of formula ##STR89## wherein R is selected from R.sup.1, 9-fluorenylmethyl, Bz and other suitable N-blocking groups. These are useful as intermediates in the preparation of compounds of formula I. The compounds wherein R is 1-adamantyl, 2-adamantyl, 4-protoadamantyl, exo-bornyl, endo-bornyl, exo-norbornyl, endo-norbornyl, 2- methylcyclohexyl, 2-chlorocyclohexyl, or camphoryl are novel and are preferred.
The disclosure of U.S. Pat. No. 4,757,151 is hereby incorporated by reference. It describes the 9- fluorenylmethyl blocking group.
Compounds of formula II are prepared by reacting
ROH III
wherein R is as defined above, with phosgene or a phosgene substitute to produce a corresponding compound of formula
ROCOCl IV
and then reacting a compound of formula IV with .alpha.-methyltryptophan to produce the desired compound of formula II above.
Alternatively, a compound of formula IV can be reacted with an a-methyltryptophan methyl ester to produce ##STR90## which can be converted to a compound of formula II by known means such as hydrolysis with aqueous lithium hydroxide.
The schemes below illustrate procedures for preparing intermediates useful in producing final products of formula I.
Scheme 1 below illustrates preparative steps in the process of making compounds of the instant invention. Treatment of 2-adamantyloxycarbonyl-tryptophan 1 with N-methylmorpholine followed by isobutylchloroformate gave an intermediary mixed anhydride, this when mixed with N,O-dimethylhydro-acylamine hydrochloride gave the hydroxamate 2 which yielded the aldehyde 3 on reduction with LiAlH.sub.4. Reductive amination of 3 with S-phenylalaninol and NaCNBH.sub.3 gave the amino methylene 4 (Example 1). Example 2 (compound 5) was prepared in an exactly analogous manner. The intermediate mixed anhydride described above was treated with Me.sub.3 SiN.sub.3 to make the acid azide which then reacted with p-nitrobenzyl alcohol in the presence of DABCO to give the bis urethane 6. Hydrogenation using Pearlman's catalyst to the monourethane, and treatment of the amine with the HOBT ester of 2-(acetoxymethyl)-3-phenylpropionic acid gave the compound 7, Example 3 after saponification of the ester with LiOH in aqueous THF. Example 4, compound 10 was prepared in three steps from 1. Here the mixed anhydride of 1 was treated with diazomethane to give the diazoketone 8. Reaction with HCl to the chloro ketone followed by reaction with sodium diethylbenzyl malonate gave a diester which, upon saponification, decarboxylated to the acid 10, Example 4. ##STR91## Scheme 2
Example 5, compound 12 was prepared by reduction of the amide in 11 using LiBH.sub.4 and Me.sub.3 SiCl. Similarly, Example 6, compound 14 was prepared from 13. 14 was treated with acetylchloride to give Example 7, in the presence of base. The major product was compound 15a, which was hydrolyzed to Example 8, compound 16, on treatment with lithium hydroxide. The thiazoline 17, Example 9, was prepared by heating 13 with Lawesson's reagent. ##STR92##
Scheme 3 shows the synthesis of examples of ester isosteres. Monomethylfumarate was condensed with R-phenylglycinol via its HOBT ester to give 18. Further condensation of this with R- or S 2-Adoc-.alpha.-MeTrpOH in the presence of N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole gave Examples 10 (compound 19) and 11 (compound 20), respectively. In an exactly analogous way Example 12 (compound 22) was made except using monomethyl succinate. ##STR93## Scheme 4
Reduction of 23a to the primary alcohol 24 with LiAlH.sub.4 followed by treatment with phenyl acetic acid and N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole gave the ester isostere 25, Example 13. Oxidation of 24 to the aldehyde 26 provided a very versatile intermediate. This aldehyde 26 was treated with Wittig reagents to give 27 (Example 14) and 29. Compound 29 was modified further to 30, Example 16 by hydrolysis of the ester and subsequent condensation with aniline. Treatment of aldehyde 26 with the Grignard reagent 3-phenylpropyl magnesium bromide afforded the secondary alcohol 28 (Example 15). ##STR94##
Scheme 5 shows the synthetic routes to some examples of homologated .alpha.-methyltryptophans, and their reverse amide isosteres. The mixed anhydride of 23b prepared by using isobutylchloroformate and N-methylmorpholine was treated with diazomethane to give the diazoketone 31, this as a solution in benzyl alcohol was treated with silver benzoate and Et.sub.3 N to yield the homologated benzyl ester 32. Hydrogenation afforded the acid 33 which was condensed in the usual way via the pentafluorophenyl ester with S-phenyl alaninol to give 34 (Example 18).
The amide of 23b, 35 was prepared by bubbling ammonia gas through a solution of the pentafluorophenyl ester. This amide was reduced to the amine 36 with Me.sub.3 SiCl/LiBH.sub.4 in THF. This amine was subsequently reacted with phenyl acyl chlorides to give Examples 19-22 inclusive. ##STR95##
Scheme 6 illustrates the synthesis of .alpha.-methyltryptophyl-.beta.-alanine derivatives. The 2-adamantyl oxycarbonyl .alpha.-methyltryptophan 23b (R isomer) or 38 (S isomer) is condensed with .beta.-alanine ester in the usual manner. This ester can then be hydrolyzed using standard methods (e.g., aqueous LiOH, etc) to afford the carboxylic acid 41 or 42. Either of these two isomers may be condensed with an appropriate amine to give Examples 23 and 24 (using S-phenyl alaninol), Examples 25-28 inclusive (using R and S phenyl alaninamide) and Examples 29-31 inclusive (using phenylalanine ester. Examples 29-31 and compound 52 may then be hydrolyzed using known methods to afford the products Examples 32-35 inclusive. ##STR96##
Scheme 7 describes synthetic steps towards derivatives of .alpha.-methyl tryptophyl glycine. As an illustration, 2-Adoc-.alpha.-methyltryptophan 23b may be easily condensed with glycine benzyl ester via the pentafluorophenyl ester of 23b. Hydrogenation of this ester using 10% palladium on carbon in an ethanol solution affords the carboxylic acid 58 in high yield. Treatment of this acid with N,N'dicyclohexyl-carbodiimide and pentafluorophenol gives the active ester which undergoes reaction with phenylalaninol readily to give the product compound 59, Example 37. ##STR97##
Scheme 8 describes synthetic steps towards derivatives of .alpha.-methyltryptophyl-.gamma.-aminobutyric acids. As an illustration, the carboxylic acid 23b may be condensed with .gamma.-aminobutyric acid methyl ester to give 60, hydrolysis of this with LiOH affords acid 61. The product 62, Example 39 is produced when 61 is condensed with phenylalaninol via an active pentafluorophenyl ester. ##STR98##
Scheme 9 outlines the synthesis of .alpha.-substituted tryptophanylphenethylamides and their intramolecular cyclizations to compound 68, Example 40. The isonitrile 63 (prepared by the method described in Synthesis 465, 1990) in ethanol at -5.degree. C. was treated with ethanolic HCl to give the amine 64. This underwent coupling with 2-adamantylchloroformate to the urethane 65. Hydrogenation of 65 using 10% palladium on charcoal at 45 psi yielded the mono acid mono ester 66 which was condensed in the usual way to 2-phenethylamine giving 67. The product was formed by treatment of 67 with LiOH which abstracts the amide NH proton and cyclizes onto the ester group, liberating methoxide. ##STR99##
Scheme 10 outlines the synthetic steps towards .beta.-substituted tryptophan derivatives. Isopropylamine, when added to acetaldehyde and treated with KOH, gives 69 which reacts with indole in glacial acetic acid over 5 days to produce 70. The isopropylamino ethylidene 70 then reacts with 71 in the presence of NaOMe in hot toluene, yielding 72. Saponification and decarboxylation affords 74 as a mixture of separable diastereoisomers.
The amide 74 is dissolved in 4N sulphuric acid at reflux, then cooled to ambient temperature, and treated with 0.4N barium hydroxide until a pH of 8 is obtained, yielding the free amine 75 which reacts with 2-adamantyl chloroformate 76, yielding the urethane 77. This is then condensed with phenyl alaninol in the normal manner to give the product 78, Example 89. ##STR100##
GENERAL PROCESS FOR REACTION SCHEMES
Scheme 15a:
Cyano acetic esters or substituted derivatives 1 are alkylated with gramine and a base, e.g., NaOH in toluene, to compounds 2 in analogy to known methods. Compounds 2 are hydrogenated catalytically with Raney nickel alloy to the amino esters 3, which are reacted with chloro- or fluoroformates to the carbamic acid esters 4.

The individual diastereomers of Example 109 can be separated by HPLC. Alternatively, they can also be synthesized by utilizing enantiomeric pure trans-2-amino-cyclohexanol which can be synthesized by following Synthetic Scheme 24. (See Overman L. E. and Sugar S., J. Org. Chem. 50:4154-4155, 1985). ##STR113##
The biological activity of compounds of the present invention was evaluated employing an initial screening test which rapidly and accurately measured the binding of the tested compound to known CCK receptor sites. Specific CCK receptors have been shown to exist in the central nervous system. (See Hays et al, Neuropeptides 1:53-62, 1980; and Satuer et al, Science 208:1155-1156, 1980).
In this screening test, the cerebral cortices taken from male CFLP mice weighing between 30-40 g were dissected on ice, weighed, and homogenized in 10 volumes of 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4 at 0.degree.-4.degree. C.). The resulting suspension was centrifuged, the supernate was discarded, and the pellet was washed by resuspension in Tris-HCl buffer followed by recentrifugation. The final pellet was resuspended in 20 volumes of 10 nM Hepes buffer (pH 7.2 at 23.degree. C.) containing 130 mM NaCl, 4.7 nM KCl, 5 nM MgCl.sub.2, 1 nM EDTA, 5 mg/mL bovine albumin, and bacitracin (0.25 mg/mL).
In saturation studies, cerebral cortical membranes were incubated at 23.degree. C. for 120 minutes in a final volume of 500 .mu.L of Hepes incubation buffer (pH 7.2) together with 0.2-20 n tritiated-pentagastrin (Amersham International, England).
In the displacement experiments, membranes were incubated with a single concentration (2 nM) of ligand, together with increasing concentrations (10.sup.-11 to 10.sup.-14 M) of competitive test compound. In each case, the nonspecific binding was defined as that persisting in the presence of the unlabeled octapeptide CCK.sub.26-33 (10.sup.-6 M)
Following incubation, radioactivity bound to membranes was separated from that free in solution by rapid filtration through Whatman GF/B filters and washed three times with 4 mL of ice cold Tris-HCl buffer. Filters from samples incubated with tritiated-pentagastrin were placed in polyethylene vials with 4 mL of scintillation cocktail, and the radioactivity was estimated by liquid scintillation spectrometry (efficiency 47-52%).
The specific binding to CCK receptor sites was defined as the total bound tritiated-pentagastrin minus the amount of tritiated-pentagastrin bound in the presence of 10.sup.-6 octapeptide, CCK.sub.26-33.
Saturation curves for specific tritiated- pentagastrin binding to mouse cortical membranes were analyzed by the methods of Scatchard (Ann. New York Acad. Sci. 51:660-672, 1949, and Hill (J. Physiol. 40:IV-VIII, 1910), to provide estimates for the maximum number of binding sites (B.sub.max) and the equilibrium dissociation constant (K.sub.a).
In displacement experiments, inhibition curves were analyzed by either logit-log plots or the iterative curve fitting computer program ALLFIT (DeLean, Munson and Redbard, 1978) to provide estimates of the IC.sub.50 and nH (apparent Hill coefficient) values). (IC.sub.50 values were defined as the concentration of test compound required to produce 50% inhibition of specific binding.)
The inhibition constant (K.sub.i) of the test compound was then calculated according to the Cheng-Prusoff equation: ##EQU1## where �L! is the concentration of radiolabel and K.sub.a is the equilibrium dissociation constant.
The K.sub.i values for several representative compounds of the present invention are present in Table III.
The utility of the compounds of the present invention as appetite suppressants is tested according to the procedure described hereinbelow.
In the Palatable Diet Feeding assay, adult male Hooded Lister rats weighing between 200-400 g are housed individually and trained to eat a palatable diet. This diet consists of Nestles sweetened condensed milk, powdered rat food and rat water which when blended together set to a firm consistency. Each rat is presented with 20-30 g of the palatable diet for 30 minutes per day during the light phase of the light-dark cycle over a training period of five days. The intake of palatable diet is measured by weighing the food container before and after the 30-minute access period (limits of accuracy 0.1 g). Care is taken to collect and correct for any spillage of the diet. Rats are given free access to pellet food and water except during the 30-minute test period.
After the training period, dose-response curves are constructed for CCK8 and several representative compounds of the present invention (n=8-10 rats per dose level). MPE.sub.50 values (.+-.95% confidence limits) are obtained for the anorectic effects of these compounds and are shown in Table III.
In therapeutic use as appetite suppression agents, the compounds of the instant invention are administered to the patient at dosage levels of from about 200 to about 2800 mg per day.

Male Hooded Lister rats (175-250 g) are housed individually and are caused to fast overnight (free access to water). They are anesthetized with urethane (1.5 g/kg IP) and the trachea cannulated to aid spontaneous respiration. The stomach is perfused continuously using a modification of the original method of Ghosh & Schild in "Continuous recording of acid secretion in the rat", Brit. J. Pharmac. 13:54-61, 1956 as described by Parsons in "Quantitative studies of drug-induced gastric acid secretion". (Ph.D. Thesis, University of London, 1969). The cavity of the stomach is perfused at a rate of 3 mL/min with 5.4% w/v glucose solution through both the esophageal and body cannula. The fluid is propelled by a roller pump (Gilson, Minipuls 2), through heating coils to bring its temperature to 37.degree..+-.1.degree. C. The perfusion fluid is collected by the fundic collecting funnel and passed to a pH electrode connected to a Jenway pH meter (PHM6). An output is taken from the pH meter to a Rikadenki chart recorder for the on-line recording of the pH of the gastric perfusate.
Pentagastrin is stored as a frozen aliquot and diluted to the required concentrations with sterile 0.9% w/v NaCl. Novel compounds are dissolved in sterile 0.9% w/v NaCl on the day of the experiment. Drugs are administered IV through a cannulated jugular vein as a bolus in a dose volume of 1 mL/kg washed in with 0.15 mL 0.9% w/v NaCl. Basal pH is allowed to stabilize before administration of compounds is begun. Typically 30 minutes elapses between surgery and the first compound administration.
The compounds of the instant invention are also useful as antiulcer agents as discussed hereinbelow.
Aspirin-induced gastric damage is assessed in groups of 10 rats each.
All animals are made to fast for 24 hours before and during the experiment. Drug or vehicle is given 10 minutes before an oral dose of 1 mL of a 45-mg/mL suspension of aspirin in 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC).
The animals are sacrificed 5 hours after aspirin administration and the stomachs removed and opened for examination.
Gastric damage is scored as follows:
______________________________________Score______________________________________1 Small hemorrhage2 Large hemorrhage3 Small ulcer4 Large ulcer5 Perforated ulcer______________________________________
The specific dosages may, however, be varied depending upon the patient, the severity of the condition being treated, and the activity of the compound employed. Determination of optimum dosages is within the skill of the art.
The compounds of the instant invention are also useful as anxiolytic agents as described and discussed below. Anxiolytic activity is assessed in the light/dark exploration test in the mouse (B. J. Jones, et al, Brit. J. Pharmac. 93:985-993, 1988).
The apparatus used is an open-topped box, 45 cm long, 27 cm wide, and 27 cm high, divided into a small (2/5) area and a large (3/5) area by a partition that extended 20 cm above the walls. There is a 7.5.times.7.5 cm opening in the partition at floor level. The small compartment is painted black and the large compartment white. The floor of each compartment is marked into 9 cm squares. The white compartment is illuminated by a 100-watt tungsten bulb 17 cm above the box and the black compartment by a similarly placed 60-watt red bulb. The laboratory is illuminated with red light.
All tests are performed between 13 hundred hours, 0 minutes and 18 hundred hours, 0 minutes. Each mouse is tested by placing it in the center of the white area and allowing it to explore the novel environment for five minutes. Its behavior is recorded on videotape and the behavioral analysis is performed subsequently from the recording. Five parameters are measured: the latency to entry into the dark compartment, the time spent in each area, the number of transitions between compartments, the number of lines crossed in each compartment, and the number of rears in each compartment.
In this test an increase in the time spent in the light area is a sensitive measure of, that is directly related to, the anxiolytic effects of several standard anxiolytic drugs. Drugs were dissolved in water or saline and administered either subcutaneously, intraperitoneally, or by mouth (PO) via a stomach needle.
The compounds of the instant invention are useful as antipsychotic agents and can be tested for their ability to reduce the effects of intra-accumbens amphetamine in the rat as described hereinafter.
Male Sprague Dawley (CD) Bradford strain rats are used. The rats are housed in groups of five at a temperature of 21.degree..+-.2.degree. C. on a 12 hour light-dark cycle of lights-on between 07 hours 00 minutes and 20 hours 00 minutes. Rats are fed CRM diet (Labsure) and allowed water ad libitum.
Rats are anesthetized with chloral hydrate (400 mg/kg SC) and placed in a Kopf stereotaxic frame. Chronically indwelling guide cannulae (constructed of stainless steel tubing 0.65 mm diameter held bilaterally in Parspex holders) are implanted using standard stereotaxic techniques to terminate 3.5 mm above the center of the nucleus accumbens (Ant. 9.4, Vert. 0.0, Lat. 1.6) or 5.0 mm above the central nucleus of the amygdala (Ant. 5.8, Vert. -1.8, Lat. .+-.4.5) (atlas of De Groot, 1959). The guides are kept patent during a 14-day recovery period using stainless steel stylets, 0.3 mm diameter, which extended 0.5 mm beyond the guide tips.
Rats are manually restrained and the stylets removed. Intracerebral injection cannulae, 0.3 mm diameter, are inserted and drugs delivered in a volume of 0.5 .mu.L over 5 seconds (a further 55 seconds was allowed for deposition) from Hamilton syringes attached via polythene tubing to the injection units. Animals Are used on a single occasion only.
Behavioral experiments are conducted between 07 hours 30 minutes and 21 hours 30 minutes in a quiet room maintained at 22.degree..+-.2.degree. C. Rats are taken from the holding room and allowed 1 hour to adapt to the new environment. Locomotor activity is assessed in individual screened Perspex cages (25.times.15.times.15 cm (high) (banked in groups of 30) each fitted with one photocell unit along the longer axis 3.5 cm from the side; this position has been found to minimize spurious activity counts due to, for example, preening and head movements when the animal is stationary. Interruptions of the light beam are recorded every 5 minutes. At this time animals are also observed for the presence of any nonspecific change in locomotor activity, e.g., sedation, prostration, stereotyped movements, that could interfere with the recording of locomotor activity.
The abilities of the compounds of the invention to inhibit the hyperactivity caused by the injection of amphetamine into the nucleus accumbens of the rat are measured.
An increase in locomotor activity followed the bilateral injection of amphetamine (20 .mu.g) into the nucleus accumbens; peak hyperactivity (50 to 60 counts 5 minutes.sup.-1) occurs 20 to 40 minutes after injection. This test is known to be predictive of antipsychotic activity (Costall, Domeney & Naylor & Tyers, Brit. J. Pharmac. 92:881-894).
The compounds of the instant invention prevent and treat the withdrawal response produced when chronic treatment by a drug is stopped or when alcohol abuse is stopped. These compounds are therefore useful as therapeutic agents in the treatment of chronic drug or alcohol abuse as discussed and described below.
The effect of the compounds of the instant invention is illustrated, for example, in the mouse "light/dark box" test wherein five animals are given nicotine, in a range of 0.1 to 100 mg/kg i.p. b.d. for 14 days. After a 24-hour withdrawal period, compound (20) is given at 1.0 mg/kg i.p. b.d. The increased time spent in the light area is a sensitive measure of the effect of compound (20) as an agent to treat withdrawal effects from nicotine.
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 tablet 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 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 preparations, 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 is then poured into convenient sized molds and allowed to cool and solidify.
The powders and tablets preferably contain 50 to about 70% of the active component. 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.
Preferred pharmaceutically acceptable salts are the N-methyl glucamine salt and sodium.
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are acetate, benzenesulfonate, benzoate, bicarbonate, bitartrate, bromide, calcium acetate, camsylate, carbonate, chloride, citrate, dihydrochloride, edetate, edisylate, estolate, esylate, fumarate, glucaptate, gluconate, glutamate, glycollylarsanilate, hexylresorcinate, hydrabamine, hydrobromide, hydrochloride, hydrochloride, hydroxynaphthoate, iodide, isethionate, lactate, lactobionate, malate, maleate, mandelate mesylate, methylbromide, methylnitrate, methylsulfate, mucate, napsylate, nitrate, pamoate (embonate), pantothenate, phosphate/diphosphate, polygalacturonate, salicylate, stearate, subacetate, succinate, sulfate, tannata, tartrate, teoclate, triethiodide, benzathine, chloroprocaine, choline, diethanolamine, ethylenediamine, meglumine, procaine, aluminum, calcium, lithium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, and zinc.
The term "preparation" is 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 preparations include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions. Sterile water or water- propylene glycol solutions of the active compounds may be mentioned as an example of liquid preparations suitable for parenteral administration. Liquid preparations 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.
Preferably the pharmaceutical preparation is in unit dosage form. In such form, the preparation is divided into unit doses containing appropriate quantities of the active component. The unit dosage form can be a packaged preparation, the package containing discrete quantities of the preparation, for example, packeted tablets, capsules, and powders in vials or ampoules. The unit dosage form can also be a capsule, cachet, or tablet itself, or it can be the appropriate number of any of these packaged forms.
