Derivatives of benzosulphonamides as inhibitors of the enzyme cyclooxygenase II

The invention relates to new derivatives of benzenesulphonic acids having anti-inflammatory activity.
Prostaglandins play a crucial part in inflammatory processes and the inhibition of prostaglandin formation, particularly the formation of PGG.sub.2, PGH.sub.2 and PGE.sub.2 is the property common to anti-inflammatory compounds. The known non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) which reduce prostaglandin-induced pain and swelling in inflammatory processes also influence prostaglandin-regulated processes which do not accompany inflammatory processes. Therefore, the majority of known NSAIDs cause undesirable side effects at higher doses, sometimes even life-threatening ulcers, particularly gastric ulcers, gastric bleeds and the like. This seriously restricts the therapeutic potential of these compounds.
Most known NSAIDs inhibit the formation of prostaglandins by inhibiting enzymes in human arachidonic acid metabolism, particularly by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX). An enzyme of human arachidonic metabolism which has only recently been discovered is the enzyme cyclooxygenase II (COX-2). (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 89, 7384, 1992). COX-2 is induced by cytokines or endotoxins. The discovery of this inducible enzyme which plays a decisive role in inflammatory processes opens up the possibility of searching for selectively acting compounds with an anti-inflammatory effect which will inhibit the inflammatory process more effectively without influencing other prostaglandin-regulated processes and at the same time having fewer and less severe side effects.
From WO 94/13635, 5-methylsulphonamide-1-indanones are known which inhibit the enzyme cyclooxygenase II and can therefore be used for the treatment of inflammatory processes. The potential and side effects of these compounds have not yet been fully investigated. Moreover, these known compounds have poor solubility and therefore have significant disadvantages in formulation and use. Therefore, there is still a need for new cyclooxygenase II-selective compounds which are safe in terms of their activity and side effects profile and are effective in use in the treatment of inflammatory processes.
The aim of the present invention was therefore to prepare new non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) which selectively inhibit cyclooxygenase II (COX-2) and therefore have less and less severe undesirable side effects.
This aim was unexpectedly achieved by preparing new derivatives of benzenesulphonic acids. These new compounds, by virtue of their selective effect on the enzyme cyclooxygenase II, have excellent anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anti-pyretic and anti-allergic properties without having the extremely undesirable side effects of the known anti-inflammatories.

The compounds of formula I according to the invention wherein B denotes a group of formula IIb may alternatively be prepared as follows: ##STR9##
The compounds of formula I obtained as described above are acidic or basic compounds and can be converted into their pharmaceutically acceptable salts with inorganic or organic bases or acids in the usual way. Salt formation may be carried out, for example, by dissolving a compound of formula I in a suitable solvent such as water, acetone, acetonitrile, benzene, dimethylformamide, dimethylsulphoxide, chloroform, dioxan, methanol, ethanol, hexanol, ethyl acetate or in an aliphatic ether, such as diethylether, or mixtures of such solvents, adding an at least equivalent quantity of the desired base or acid, mixing thoroughly and, after salt formation has ended, filtering off the precipitated salt, lyophilising it or distilling the solvent off in vacuo. If desired, the salts may be recrystallised after isolation.
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are those with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulphuric acid, phosphoric acid or nitric acid, or with organic acids such as citric acid, tartaric acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, malic acid, methanesulphonic acid, aminosulphonic acid, acetic acid, benzoic acid and the like. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are, for example, metal salts, particularly alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts such as sodium, potassium, magnesium or calcium salts. Other pharmaceutical salts include, for example, the readily crystallising ammonium salts. These are derived from ammonia or organic amines such as mono-, di- or tri- lower (alkyl, cycloalkyl or hydroxyalkyl) amines, lower alkylenediamines or hydroxy- or aryl-lower alkylammonium bases, e.g. methylamine, diethylamine, triethylamine, ethylenediamine, tris-(hydroxymethyl)-aminomethane, benzyltrimethylammonium-hydroxide and the like.
The new compounds are readily soluble and, by virtue of their selective effect on the enzyme cyclooxygenase II, they exhibit excellent anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anti-pyretic and anti-allergic properties, without having the extremely undesirable side effects of known anti-inflammatories.
In view of these pharmacological properties the new compounds may be used on their own or in conjunction with other active substances in the form of conventional galenic preparations as therapeutic agents for treating disorders or diseases which may be prevented, treated or cured by inhibiting cyclooxygenase II.
These disorders or diseases include pain, fever and inflammation of various kinds, such as rheumatic fever, symptoms which accompany influenza, influenza-like or other viral infections, headache and aching limbs, toothache, sprains, neuralgia, muscle inflammation, joint inflammation, inflammation of the skin of the joint, arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, other rheumatic forms of inflammation of a degenerative type such as osteoarthritis, gout, stiffening of the joints, spondylitis, bursitis, burns and injuries.
The invention therefore relates to pharmaceutical preparations which contain the compounds of formula I according to the invention or the salts thereof, on their own or mixed with other therapeutically useful active substances, as well as conventional galenic adjuvants and/or carriers or diluents.
The compounds according to the invention may be administered orally in the form of tablets or capsules which contain a dosage unit of the compound together with excipients and diluents such as maize starch, calcium carbonate, dicalcium phosphate, alginic acid, lactose, magnesium stearate, primogel or talc. The tablets are prepared in the usual way by granulating the ingredients and compressing, whilst capsules are prepared by packing into hard gelatine capsules of suitable size.
Another form of administering the compounds according to the invention is in suppositories which contain excipients such as beeswax derivatives, polyethylene glycol or polyethylene glycol derivatives, linoleic or linolenic acid esters, together with a single dose of the compound, and these may be administered by rectal route.
The compounds according to the invention may also be administered parenterally, e.g. by intramuscular, intravenous or subcutaneous injection. For parenteral administration they are best used in the form of a sterile aqueous solution which may contain other dissolved substances such as tonic agents, agents for adjusting the pH, preservatives and stabilisers. The compounds may have distilled water added to them and the pH may be adjusted to 3 to 6 using citric acid, lactic acid or hydrochloric acid, for example. Sufficiently dissolved substances such as dextrose or saline solution may be added to render the solution isotonic. Moreover, preservatives such as p-hydroxybenzoates and stabilisers such as EDTA may be added to ensure sufficient shelf-life and stability of the solution. The solution thus obtained can then be sterilised and transferred into sterile ampoules of a suitable size to contain the required volume of solution. The compounds according to the invention may also be administered by infusion of a parenteral formulation as described above.
Moreover, the compounds according to the invention may be formulated for topical or transdermal application with suitable excipients and/or carriers, emulsifiers, surfactants and/or diluents, e.g. vaseline, olive oil, groundnut oil, sesame oil, soya oil, water, glycols, cetyl stearyl esters, triglycerides, cetaceum, miglyol and the like to obtain ointments, creams, gels or plasters or, for example, with talc to obtain powders.
For oral administration in humans it is assumed that the daily dose of a compound according to the invention will be within the range from 0.01 to 1000 mg per day for a typical adult weighing 70 kg. Therefore, tablets or capsules may usually contain 0.003 to 300 mg of active compound, e.g. 0.1 to 50 mg, for oral administration up to three times a day. For parenteral administration the dosage may be in the range from 0.01 to 1000 mg per 70 kg per day, for example about 5 mg.

EXAMPLE A
Human COX-2 Test
Cells from a human monocytoid cell line are stimulated with LPS (incubator at 37.degree. C., 5% CO.sub.2 -enriched atmosphere and approximately 100% relative humidity), in order to induce COX-2. Then the culture medium (RPMI 1640 enriched with 10% FCS, 2 mM glutamine, 10,000 U/ml penicillin, 10 ng/ml.streptomycin and 1 mM pyruvate) was renewed and potential inhibitors of cyclooxygenase-2, dissolved in culture medium or in phosphate-buffered saline or in any other solvent which is compatible with cell culture, were added and incubated for half an hour as described above. Arachidonic acid was pipetted in and incubation was continued for 15 minutes. The culture supernatant of the cells was removed and its content of products of cyclooxygenase metabolism (such as prostaglandin E2, prostaglandin F.sub.1a and thromboxane B.sub.2) was measured by ELISA.
EXAMPLE B
Human COX 1 test
The inhibition of arachidonic acid-induced aggregation of washed human thrombocytes was used as a test system for assessing the inhibition of cyclooxygenase I. The test substances were added to a thrombocyte suspension at 37.degree. C. 2 minutes before the addition of the arachidonic acid (final concentration 10 .mu.M) and the course of aggregation was measured using an aggregometer. By means of a concentration-activity curve the concentration of test substance at which 50% aggregation is measured was determined (IC.sub.50).
The results of the two tests and the selectivity obtained from them are shown in Table 1.
