The present invention relates to the field of therapeutic, diagnostic and imaging agents and more specifically to compounds that are inhibitors of matrix-metalloproteinases (MMPs).
The matrix-metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of at least 20 zinc-dependent endo-peptidases which mediate degradation, or remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Together, the members of the MMP family can degrade e.g. components of the blood vessel wall and play a major role in both physiological and pathological events that involve the degradation of components of the ECM. Since the MMPs can interfere with the cell-matrix interactions that control cell behavior, their activity affects processes as diverse as cellular differentiation, migration, proliferation and apoptosis. The negative regulatory controls that finely regulate MMP activity in physiological situations do not always function as they should. Inappropriate expression of MMP activity is thought to constitute part of the pathological mechanism in several disease states. MMPs are therefore targets for therapeutic inhibitors in many inflammatory, malignant and degenerative diseases. Consequently, it is believed that synthetic inhibitors of MMPs may be useful in the treatment of many inflammatory, malignant and degenerative diseases. Furthermore, it has been suggested that inhibitors of MMPs may be useful in the diagnosis of these diseases.
The compounds of the present invention are useful for the prevention, the treatment and the in vivo diagnostic imaging of a range of disease states (inflammatory, malignant and degenerative diseases) where specific matrix metalloproteinases are known to be involved. These include: (a) atherosclerosis; (b) CHF; (c) cancer; (d) arthritis; (e) amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; (f) brain metastases; (g) cerebrovascular diseases; (h) Alzheimer's disease; (i) neuroinflammatory diseases; (j) COPD; (k) eye pathology; (l) skin diseases.
Novel compounds having MMP inhibitory activity are disclosed, which have been found to be particularly useful in the prevention, treatment and diagnostic imaging of diseases associated with an unpaired activity of MMP, amongst others MMP-2, MMP-8, MMP-9 and/or MMP-13 to name a few.
Another aspect of the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions useful in prevention, treatment and diagnostic imaging of diseases associated with an unpaired activity of MMP.
The compounds of the present invention are useful for the prevention, the treatment and the in vivo diagnostic imaging of a range of disease states (inflammatory, malignant and degenerative diseases) where specific matrix metalloproteinases are known to be involved.
The compounds of the present invention may be “cold” or comprise “hot” radioactive atoms or molecules. Imaging compounds disclosed herein may have radiolabels selected from the group consisting of 11C, 13N, 15O, 18F, 61Cu, 62Cu, 64Cu, 67Cu, 68Ga, 124I, 125I, 131I, 99Tc, 75Br, 153Gd and 32P.
The compounds of the invention may be used as therapeutics and/or in vivo diagnostic agents. In a further aspect, the present compounds may be used to prevent and/or treat pathological conditions associated with unpaired expression of matrix-metalloproteases in human and animal, in particular mammals.
In another aspect, the present invention relates to compounds that are labeled with a radionuclide such as an 18F atom for use as a diagnostic or imaging agent, in particular as an in vivo diagnostic or imaging agent and more in particular as diagnostic or imaging agent for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) or SPECT.
The compounds may be used to visualize, assess and quantify MMP-activity in cells and tissues. Preferably, molecular imaging agents are for visualizing and quantifying MMP-activity in mammalian cells and tissues, including human cells and tissues. This may comprise analyzing cellular or tissue radioactivity content, or the rate of uptake, displacement, dissociation or partitioning.
The compounds of the invention may be used in the prevention or treatment of pathological conditions associated with a dysregulated expression of matrix metalloproteinase in human and animal.
The radiolabeled compounds of the invention may be used for diagnosing pathological conditions associated with a dysregulated expression of matrix metalloproteinase in human and animal.
The pathological condition may be selected from the group consisting of cardiovascular diseases, inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases and malignant diseases. In particular the cardiovascular diseases may be selected from atherosclerosis and congestive heart failure. Inflammatory disease is chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Autoimmune diseases are diabetes mellitus type 1, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and malignant diseases are cancers.
The diagnostic imaging compound of the invention permits the identification of active plaque burden, which allows risk stratification of patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease, i.e. patients with pain or a history of pain, or identified as high risk but asymptomatic.
In addition, the diagnostic imaging agents of the invention permit identification of vulnerable plaques in symptomatic patients, which may allow identification of high risk of acute myocardial infarction or stroke irrespective of stenosis and permits immediate risk stratification when the patient suffers from chest pain Furthermore, angioplasty of vulnerable plaques is high risk, and may lead to embolism of the artery tree post surgery. Thus imaging of this subtype of plaques may help reduce post-surgical complication.

Radiosynthesis of [18F]M005
A vial containing the click chemistry mixture of M005-precursor (2 mg), dissolved in 250 μL of 0.1 M CuSO4, sodium ascorbate (20 mg), ACN (0.25 mL) and EtOH/H2O (2:1 ratio, 0.25 mL total). Aqueous 18F-fluoride ion, produced in the cyclotron target, was passed through an anion exchange resin cartridge. The 18O—H2O was retained for recycling. The 18F fluoride was eluted from the column using a solution of potassium carbonate (3 mg) in water (0.4 mL) and collected into the reaction vessel. Kryptofix® 222 (20 mg) dissolved in acetonitrile (1 mL) was added to the aqueous 18F-fluoride in the reaction vessel. The mixture was dried by heating between 68-95° C. under reduced pressure (250 mbar) and a stream of argon. After the 18F-fluoride was considered sufficiently activated (as indicated by a constant pressure reading for the reactor while under vacuum), the tosylate precursor was then added as a solution in anhydrous MeCN (20 mg in 0.8 mL). The reaction was heated closed at 135° C. for 3-5 mM for fluorination. After fluorination, the transfer line in the reaction vessel was kept above the surface of the reaction mixture and opened for approximately 20 seconds to allow the transfer of 18F-pentyne from the reaction pot into the click vial (via bubbling of the labeled pentyne into the click solution) with the HPLC transfer line held above the reaction mixture. After the transfer was complete, the click reaction was allowed to proceed for 20 min. After clicking, the transfer line was lowered into the click solution and the contents were pressurized through the HPLC load vial for dilution with water prior to purification. The reaction mixture containing crude 18F-M005 was transferred to the HPLC sample loop (5 mL) and purified via chromatographic separation using a semi-preparative HPLC column (Phenomenex Gemini, C18, 5μ, 10×250 mm) using a isocredit 30% MeCN in 20 mM Phosphate buffer (pH=7.6) at 5 mL/min. The column effluent was monitored using UV (210, 254 or 280 nm) and radiometric detectors connected in series. Purified 18F-M005 was collected from the column at the retention time window determined for the M005 reference standard, which coincides with the time that the radiometric detectors begin showing the main peak. The retention time of the 18F-M005 in this system was approximately 33 minutes. The purified 18F-M005 fraction, eluted from the HPLC purification column, was diluted with water (40 mL) and captured onto a C18 SepPak cartridge. The C18 SepPak cartridge was washed with water (10 mL) followed by elution of the product with 0.5 mL of EtOH. The sample was then diluted with sterile water (4.5 mL of water) to afford a final formulation of 18F-M005 in a maximum of 10% EtOH:water. For sterile preparations, the dose was filtered through a sterile Pall 0.2 um filter.
