Dolastatin 15 derivatives

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
A number of short peptides with significant activity as inhibitors of cell growth have been isolated from the Indian Ocean sea hare Dolabella auricularia (Bai, et al., Biochem. Pharmacology 40: 1859-1864 (1990); Beckwith et al., J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 85: 483-488 (1993) and references cited therein). These include Dolastatins 1-10 (U.S. Patent No. 4,816,444, issued to Pettit et al.) and Dolastatin-15 (European Patent Application No. 398558). Dolastatin 15, for example, markedly inhibits the growth of the National Cancer Institute's P388 lymphocytic leukemia (PS system) cell line, a strong predictor of efficacy against various types of human malignancies.
The exceedingly small amounts of the various Dolastatin peptides present in Dolabella auricularia (about 1 mg each per 100 kg sea hare) and the consequent difficulties in purifying amounts sufficient for evaluation and use, have motivated efforts toward the synthesis of these compounds (Roux et al., Tetrahedron 50: 5345-5360 (1994); Shioiri et al., Tetrahedron 49: 1913-24 (1993); Patino et al., Tetrahedron 48: 4115-4122 (1992) and references cited therein). Synthetic Dolastatin 15, however, suffers from drawbacks which include poor solubility in aqueous systems and the need for expensive starting materials for its synthesis. These, in turn, have led to the synthesis and evaluation of structurally modified Dolastatin 15 derivatives (see, for example, Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 4: 1947-50 (1994); WO 93 03054; JP-A-06234790).
However, there is a need for synthetic compounds with the biological activity of Dolastatin 15 which have useful aqueous solubility and can be produced efficiently and economically.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Compounds of the present invention include cell growth inhibitors which are peptides of Formula I
A--B--D--E--F--G (I)
and acid salts thereof, wherein A, D, and E are .alpha.-amino acid residues, B is an .alpha.-amino acid residue, F is an aminobenzoic acid residue or an aminocycloalkanecarboxylic acid residue, and G is a monovalent radical, such as, for example, a hydrogen atom, an amino group, an alkyl group, an alkylene alkyl ether, an alkylene alkyl thioether, an alkylene aldehyde, an alkylene amide, a .beta.-hydroxylamino group, a hydrazido group, an alkoxy group, a thioalkoxy group, an aminoxy group, an oximato group, an alkylene aryl group, an alkylene ester, an alkylene sulfoxide or an alkylene sulfone.
Another aspect of the present invention includes pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of Formula I and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
An additional embodiment of the present invention is a method for treating cancer in a mammal, such as a human, comprising administering to the mammal an effective amount of a compound of Formula I in a pharmaceutically acceptable composition.
The present invention provides compounds with antineoplastic activity as well as increased metabolic stability relative to Dolastatin 15.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to peptides having antineoplastic activity. It also includes pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds and methods for treating cancer in a mammal, including a human, by administration of these compositions to the mammal.
The invention is based on the discovery that Dolastatin 15, a peptide isolated from the sea hare Dolabella auricularia, is a potent inhibitor of cell growth. This compound, however, is present in trace quantities in the sea hare, and is, thus, difficult to isolate and expensive to synthesize and suffers from poor aqueous solubility. As shown herein, however, Dolastatin 15 can serve as a starting point for the development of compounds which overcome these disadvantages while retaining antineoplastic activity or exhibiting greater antineoplastic activity than the natural product. Applicants have discovered that certain structural modifications of Dolastatin 15 provide compounds with a surprisingly improved therapeutic potential for the treatment of neoplastic diseases as compared to Dolastatins-10 and -15. The Dolastatin-15 derivatives exhibit activity even in multiple drug-resistant tumor systems and an unpredicted high solubility in aqueous solvents. Furthermore, the compounds of the present invention can be conveniently synthesized, as described below in detail.
For the purposes of the present invention, the term "monovalent radical" is intended to mean an electrically neutral molecular fragment capable of forming one covalent bond with a second neutral molecular fragment. Monovalent radicals include the hydrogen atom, alkyl groups, such as methyl, ethyl and propyl groups, halogen atoms, such as fluorine, chlorine and bromine atoms, aryl groups, such as phenyl and naphthyl groups, and alkoxy groups, such as methoxy and ethoxy groups. Two monovalent radicals on adjacent sigma-bonded atoms can also together form a pi bond between the adjacent atoms. Two monovalent radicals may also be linked together, for example, by a polymethylene unit, to form a cyclic structure. For example, in the unit --N(R)R', R and R' are each a monovalent radical, and can, together with the nitrogen atom, form a heterocyclic ring. In addition, two monovalent radicals bonded to the same atom can also together form a divalent radical, such as an alkylidene group, for example, a propylidene group, or an oxygen atom.
For the purposes of the present invention, the term "residue" refers to the molecular fragment remaining after the removal of the elements of a water molecule (one oxygen atom, two hydrogen atoms) from a molecule, such as an amino acid or a hydroxy acid.
For the purposes of the present invention the term "normal alkyl" refers to an unbranched, or straight chain, alkyl group, for example, normal propyl (n-propyl, --CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.3).
The compounds of the present invention can be represented by Formula I,
A--B--D--E--F--G (I),
wherein A, D and E are .alpha.-amino acid residues; B is an .alpha.-amino acid residue or an .alpha.-hydroxy acid residue; F is an aminobenzoic acid residue, or an aminocycloalkanecarboxylic acid residue, such as an aminocyclobutanecarboxylic acid residue, an aminocylopentanecarboxylic acid residue, or an aminocyclohexanecarboxylic acid residue; and G is a monovalent radical.
The peptides of Formula I are generally composed of L-amino acids but they can contain one or more D-amino acids. They can also be present as salts with physiologically-compatible acids, including hydrochloric acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, lactic acid, phosphoric acid, methanesulfonic acid, acetic acid, formic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, malic acid, succinic acid, malonic acid, sulfuric acid, L-glutamic acid, L-aspartic acid, pyruvic acid, mucic acid, benzoic acid, glucuronic acid, oxalic acid, ascorbic acid and acetylglycine.

Synthetic Methods
The compounds of the present invention can be prepared by known methods of peptide synthesis. Thus, the peptides can be assembled sequentially from individual amino acids or by linking suitable small peptide fragments. In sequential assemblage, the peptide chain is extended stepwise, starting at the C-terminus, by one amino acid per step. In fragment coupling, fragments of different lengths can be linked together, and the fragments in turn can be obtained by sequential assembly from amino acids or by fragment coupling of still shorter peptides.
In both sequential assemblage and fragment coupling it is necessary to link the units by forming an amide linkage, which can be accomplished via a variety of enzymatic and chemical methods. Chemical methods for forming the amide linkage are described in detail in standard references on peptide chemistry, including Muller, Methoden der organischen Chemie Vol. XV/2, pages 1-364, Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart, Germany (1974); Stewart and Young, Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis, pages 31-34 and 71-82, Pierce Chemical Company, Rockford, Ill. (1984); Bodanszky et al., Peptide Synthesis, pages 85-128, John Wiley & Sons, New York, (1976). Preferred methods include the azide method, the symmetric and mixed anhydride method, the use of in situ generated or preformed active esters, the use of urethane protected N-carboxy anhydrides of amino acids and the formation of the amide linkage using coupling reagents, such as carboxylic acid activators, especially dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), diisopropylcarbodiimide (DIC), 1-ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline (EEDQ), pivaloyl chloride, 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDCI), n-propane-phosphonic anhydride (PPA), N,N-bis(2-oxo-oxazolidinyl)imido-phosphoryl chloride (BOP-Cl), bromo-tris-pyrrolidinophosphonium hexafluorophosphate (PyBrop), diphenyl-phosphoryl azide (DPPA), Castro's reagent (BOP, PyBop), O-benzotriazolyl-N,N,N', N'-tetramethyluronium salts (HBTU), diethylphosphoryl cyanide (DEPCN), 2,5-diphenyl-2,3-dihydro-3-oxo-4-hydroxy-thiophene dioxide (Steglich's reagent; HOTDO), and 1,1'-carbonyl-diimidazole (CDI). The coupling reagents can be employed alone or in combination with additives such as N,N-dimethyl-4-aminopyridine (DMAP), N-hydroxy-benzotriazole (HOBt), N-hydroxybenzotriazine (HOOBt), N-hydroxysuccinimide (HOSu) or 2-hydroxypyridine.
Although the use of protecting groups is generally not necessary in enzymatic peptide synthesis, reversible protection of reactive groups not involved in formation of the amide linkage is necessary for both reactants in chemical synthesis. Three conventional protective group techniques are preferred for chemical peptide synthesis: the benzyloxycarbonyl (Z), the t-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) and the 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) techniques. Identified in each case is the protective group on the .alpha.-amino group of the chain-extending unit. A detailed review of amino-acid protective groups is given by Muller, Methoden der organischen Chemie Vol. XV/1, pp 20-906, Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart (1974). The units employed for assembling the peptide chain can be reacted in solution, in suspension or by a method similar to that described by Merrifield (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 85: 2149 (1963)). Particularly preferred methods are those in which peptides are assembled sequentially or by fragment coupling using the Z, Boc or Fmoc protective group technique, with one of the reactants in the said Merrifield technique being bonded to an insoluble polymeric support (also called resin hereinafter). This typically entails assembling the peptide sequentially on the polymeric support using the Boc or Fmoc protective group technique, with the growing peptide chain covalently bonded at the C terminus to the insoluble resin particles. This procedure allows the removal of reagents and byproducts by filtration, eliminating the need to recrystallize intermediates.
The protected amino acids can be linked to any suitable polymer, which must be insoluble in the solvents used and have a stable physical form which permits filtration. The polymer must contain a functional group to which the first protected amino acid can be covalently attached. A wide variety of polymers are suitable for this purpose, including cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, polymethacrylate, sulfonated polystyrene, chloromethylated styrene/divinylbenzene copolymer (Merrifield resin), 4-methylbenzhydrylamine resin (MBHA-resin), phenylacetamidomethyl resin (Pam-resin), p-benzyloxy-benzyl-alcohol-resin, benzhydryl-amine-resin (BHA-resin), 4-(hydroxymethyl)-benzoyl-oxymethyl-resin, the resin of Breipohl et al. (Tetrahedron Letters 28 (1987) 565; supplied by BACHEM), 4-(2,4-dimethoxyphenylaminomethyl) phenoxy resin (supplied by Novabiochem) or o-chlorotrityl-resin (supplied by Biohellas).
Solvents suitable for peptide synthesis include any solvent which is inert under the reaction conditions, especially water, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), acetonitrile, dichloromethane (DCM), 1,4-dioxane, tetrahydrofuran (THF), N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) and mixtures of these solvents.
Peptide synthesis on the polymeric support can be carried out in a suitable inert organic solvent in which the amino acid derivatives starting materials are soluble. However, preferred solvents additionally have resin-swelling properties and include DMF, DCM, NMP, acetonitrile, DMSO, and mixtures of these solvents. Following synthesis, the peptide is removed from the polymeric support. The conditions under which this cleavage is accomplished for various resin types are disclosed in the literature. The cleavage reactions most commonly used are acid- or palladium-catalyzed, the former being conducted in, for example, liquid anhydrous hydrogen fluoride, anhydrous trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, dilute or concentrated trifluoroacetic acid, and acetic acid/dichloromethane/trifluoroethanol mixtures. The latter can be carried out in THF or THF-DCM-mixtures in the presence of a weak base such as morpholine. Certain protecting groups are also cleaved off under these conditions.
Partial deprotection of the peptide may also be necessary prior to certain derivatization reactions. For example, peptides dialkylated at the N-terminus can be prepared either by coupling the appropriate N,N-di-alkylamino acid to the peptide in solution or on the polymeric support or by reductive alkylation of the resin-bound peptide in DMF/1% acetic acid with NaCNBH.sub.3 and the appropriate aldehyde.
The two schemes which follow present a more detailed description of the synthesis of the compounds of the present invention. ##STR24## The tetrapeptide A-B-D-E-OH is coupled with an amino-derivative F-G to give the final compound A-B-D-E-F-G using the methods for peptide coupling as described above. ##STR25## Here, the N-terminal protected tetrapeptide A'-B-D-E-OH is coupled with an amino-derivative F-G to give an intermediate compound A'-B-D-E-F-G using the methods for peptide coupling as described above. Then, the N-protecting group is removed by conventional methods as described above. The groups R.sub.A and R.sup.7.sub.A can then be attached to the amino terminus via reductive alkylation as described above.
Building blocks of use in the synthesis of the claimed compounds (described in scheme I and II as F-G) can be prepared by the following general methods:
a) Synthesis of amino-phenyl-ketones
The following schemes describe synthetic routes to aminophenyl-ketones which are not commercially available. ##STR26##
In scheme III.1, the synthesis starts with a nitrobenzaldehyde. Addition of organometallic compounds such as lithium or Grignard reagents led to the corresponding alcohols (Furstner et al. Tetrahedron 52: 7329-7344 (1996); Furstner et al., Tetrahedron 51, 773-786 (1995)). These alcohols can be oxidised to the ketones with known oxidation agents, such as chromium(VI) compounds (for example, pyridinium dichromate in dichloromethane, as described by Furstner et al., supra) or the Dess Martin reagent. The nitrophenyl ketones are then reduced to the corresponding amino-phenyl-ketones either by hydrogenation in presence of a palladium catalyst, such as palladium on carbon, or by metal salts in presence of acids such as the combination of tin(II)chloride and hydrochloric acid (Nunn et al., J. Chem. Soc. 1952: 583-588). ##STR27##
A more direct route (see scheme III.2) is the reaction of nitrobenzoyl chlorides with an organometallic reagent such as a lithium or Grignard reagent (Furstner et al., Tetrahedron 51, 773-786 (1995)). ##STR28##
2-Amino-phenyl ketones can be obtained by reaction of the corresponding 2-fluorophenyl-ketone with sodium azide in a polar solvent, such as N,N-dimethylformamide, and subsequent reduction of the intermediate benzisoxazole (see scheme III.3). For example ,the synthesis of 2-aminophenyl-(4-pyridazinyl)-ketone has been described by N. Haider et al. (Arch. Pharm. 325: 119-122 (1992)).
b) synthesis of amino-benzamides
The following schemes describe synthetic routes to aminobenzamides which are not commercially available. ##STR29## In scheme IV.1, the steps are described starting from nitrobenzoic acids or substituted nitrobenzoic acids. These acids are coupled with primary or secondary amines (HNR.sup.1 R.sup.2) by using coupling reagents. Preferred method is the use of coupling reagents such as carboxylic acid activators, especially dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), diisopropylcarbodiimide (DIC), 1-ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline (EEDQ), pivaloylchloride, 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDCI), n-propane-phosphonic anhydride (PPA), N,N-bis(2-oxo-3 oxazolidinyl)-imidophosphoryl chloride (BOP-Cl), bromo-tris-pyrrolidinophosphonium hexafluorophosphate (PyBrop), diphenylphosphoryl azide (DPPA), Castro's reagent (BOP, PyBop), O-benzotriazolyl-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluronium salts (HBTU), diethylphosphoryl cyanide (DEPCN), 2,5-diphenyl 2,3-dihydro-3-oxo-4-hydroxythiophene dioxide (Steglich's reagent; HOTDO) and 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI). The coupling reagents can be employed alone or in combination with additives such as N,N-dimethyl-4-aminopyridine (DMAP), N-hydroxy-benzotriazole (HOBt), N-hydroxybenzotriazine (HOOBt), azabenzotriazole, N-hydroxysuccinimide (HOSU) or 2-hydroxypyridine.
In place of the acids, the corresponding nitro-benzoyl chloride can be used. These are either commercially available or could be synthesized from the corresponding acids with thionyl chloride. The amines react with the nitrobenzoylchlorides in the presence of a base such as pyridine, which can also be used as the solvent (N. S. Cho et al., J. Heterocycl. Chem. 33, 1201-1206 (1996)). The nitro-benzamides are then reduced to the corresponding amino-benzamides by reducing agents such as metal salts in presence of hydrochloride acids or by metal-catalysed hydrogenation using palladium on a solid such as palladium on charcoal as catalyst. This route is described in Example 1.
Another method involves transforming the amine to the trifluoroacetamide by treatment with trifluoroacetic anhydride. The amide is deprotonated with a base such as sodium hydride or potassium t-butanolate and then treated with the corresponding alkyl halide such as methyl iodide, ethyl iodide or isopropyl iodide. The trifluoroacetamide is easily cleaved in basic alcoholic solution such as potassium carbonate in methanol. ##STR30## In scheme IV.2. the starting materials for the synthesis of amino-benzamides are the N-protected aminobenzoic acids. Different protecting groups for the nitrogen are compatible such as the above mentioned Z-, Boc- or Fmoc-protecting groups. The N-protected amino-benzoic acids are coupled with amines as described above for the nitro-benzoic acids using the above mentioned coupling conditions. This route exemplified in Example 2. ##STR31## A route for the preparation of 2-aminobenzamides is described in scheme IV.3. Opening of isatoic anhydride (substituted or unsubstituted at the nitrogen) by amines with evolution of carbon dioxide led to the corresponding 2-amino-benzamides, as described by Clark et al., J. Org. Chem. 9: 55-64 (1944).
c) Amino-cyclopentane- or aminocyclohexane-carboxamides
Different routes have been described to the synthesis of cis-2-amino-cyclopentylcarboxylic acid (cispentacin) in racemic form or as pure enantiomer. Using an intramolecular nitrone-olefin cycloaddition cis-2-(t-butoxycarbonylamino)cyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid could be prepared in a few synthetic steps (Konosu et al., Chem. Pharm. Bull. 41: 1012 (1993)). Another route to enantiomerically pure cis-(1R, 2S) -2-amino-cyclopentylcarboxylic acid is the addition of chiral lithium (S)-(-methylbenzyl)benzylamide to t-butyl-1-cyclopentene-1-carboxylate with subsequent removal of the benzyl groups by hydogenation and removal of the t-butyl group by acid treatment (Davies et al., Synlett 1993, p. 461). The corresponding trans-epimer could be obtained by isomerisation with a base such as potassium t-butoxide. By using the lithium (R)-(-methylbenzyl)benzylamide in the Michael addition (is, 2R)-2-amino-cyclopentylcarboxylic acid and (1S, 2S)-2-amino-cyclopentylcarboxylic acid can be obtained. This method is also applicable to the synthesis of cis-and trans-aminocyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid.
Resolution of racemic Boc-protected cis-2-aminocyclopentane carboxylic acid (Bernath et al., Acta Chim. 74: 479 (1972); Nativ et al., Isr. J. Chem. 10: 55 (1972)) can be achieved with (+)- and (-)-ephedrine in high enantiomeric excess (Noteberg et al., Tetrahedron 53: 7975 (1997)). In this paper also the synthesis of the trans-enantiomers of Boc-protected trans-2-aminocyclopentane carboxylic methyl ester was described, starting with either trans-(3R, 4R) -bis(methoxycarbonyl)cyclopentanone or trans(3S, 4S) -bis(methoxycarbonyl)-cyclopentanone.
Amides of Boc-protected 2-aminocyclopentylcarboxylic acid can be obtained by coupling the acid with the corresponding amine using the standard procedures as described above for the coupling of nitrobenzoic acid with amines or as described in D. Noteberg et al., Tetrahedron 53: 7975 (1997). Deprotection of the amine function can be achieved by using Lewis acids, for example, a mineral acid such as hydrochloric acid in ether or dioxane or an organic acid, such as trifluoroacetic acid in methylene chloride.
Methods of Use of the Claimed Compounds
In another embodiment, the present invention comprises a method for partially or totally inhibiting formation of, or otherwise treating (e.g., reversing or inhibiting the further development of) solid tumors (e.g., tumors of the lung, breast, colon, prostate, bladder, rectum, or endometrial tumors) or hematological malignancies (e.g., leukemias, lymphomas) in a mammal, for example, a human, by administering to the mammal a therapeutically effective amount of a compound or a combination of compounds of Formula I. The agent may be administered alone or in a pharmaceutical composition comprising the agent and an acceptable carrier or diluent. Administration may be by any of the means which are conventional for pharmaceutical, preferably oncological, agents, including oral and parenteral means such as subcutaneously, intravenously, intramuscularly and intraperitoneally, nasally or rectally. The compounds may be administered alone or in the form of pharmaceutical compositions containing a compound of Formula I together with a pharmaceutically accepted carrier appropriate for the desired route of administration. Such pharmaceutical compositions may be combination products, i.e., they may also contain other therapeutically active ingredients.
The dosage to be administered to the mammal, such as a human, will contain a therapeutically effective amount of a compound described herein. As used herein, "therapeutically effective amount" is an amount sufficient to inhibit (partially or totally) formation of a tumor or a hematological malignancy or to reverse development of a solid tumor or other malignancy or prevent or reduce its further progression. For a particular condition or method of treatment, the dosage is determined empirically, using known methods, and will depend upon factors such as the biological activity of the particular compound employed; the means of administration; the age, health and body weight of the recipient; the nature and extent of the symptoms; the frequency of treatment; the administration of other therapies; and the effect desired. A typical daily dose will be from about 5 to about 250 milligrams per kilogram of body weight by oral administration and from about 1 to about 100 milligrams per kilogram of body weight by parenteral administration.
The compounds of the present invention can be administered in conventional solid or liquid pharmaceutical administration forms, for example, uncoated or (film-)coated tablets, capsules, powders, granules, suppositories or solutions. These are produced in a conventional manner. The active substances can for this purpose be processed with conventional pharmaceutical aids such as tablet binders, fillers, preservatives, tablet disintegrants, flow regulators, plasticizers, wetting agents, dispersants, emulsifiers, solvents, sustained release compositions, antioxidants and/or propellant gases (cf. H. Sucker et al.: Pharmazeutische Technologie, Thieme-Verlag, Stuttgart, 1978). The administration forms obtained in this way typically contain from about 1 to about 90% by weight of the active substance.
The following examples are intended to illustrate the invention but are not to be considered limitations of the invention.

The proteinogenous amino acids are abbreviated in the examples using the known three-letter code. Other abbreviations employed are: TFA=trifluoroacetic acid, Ac=acetic acid, DCM=dichloromethane, DMSO=dimethylsulfoxide, Bu=butyl, Et=ethyl, Me=methyl, Bn=benzyl. In the compounds listed, all proteinogenous amino acids are L-amino acids unless otherwise noted.
General Materials and Methods
The compounds of the present invention are synthesized by classical solution synthesis using standard Z- and Boc-methodology as discussed above or by standard methods of solid-phase synthesis on a model 431A synthesizer supplied by APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS. This apparatus uses different synthetic cycles for the Boc and Fmoc protective group techniques, as described below.

BOP-Cl and PyBrop were used as reagents for coupling an amino acid to an N-methylamino acid. The reaction times were correspondingly increased. In solution synthesis, the use of either Boc-protected amino acid NCAs (N-tert-butyloxycarbonyl-amino acid-N-carboxy-anhydrides) or Z-protected amino acid NCAs (N-benzyloxycarbonyl-amino acid-N-carboxy-anhydrides) respectively is most preferable for this type of coupling.

BOP-Cl and PyBrop were used as reagents for coupling an amino acid to an N-methylamino acid. The reaction times were correspondingly increased. Reductive alkylation of the N terminus The peptide-resin prepared as described above was deprotected at the N terminus and then reacted with a 3-fold molar excess of aldehyde or ketone in DMF/1% acetic acid with addition of 3 equivalents of NaCNBH.sub.3. After reaction was complete (negative Kaiser test), the resin was washed several times with water, isopropanol, DMF and dichloromethane.
Workup of the Peptide-Resins
The peptide-resin obtained via the Boc protecting group technique was dried under reduced pressure and transferred into a reaction vessel of a TEFLON HF apparatus (supplied by PENINSULA). A scavenger, usually anisole (1 mL/g of resin), was then added and additionally, in the case of tryptophan-containing peptides, a thiol (0.5 mL/g of resin), preferably ethanedithiol, to remove the indolic formyl group. This was followed by condensing in hydrogen fluoride (10 mL/g of resin) in a bath of liquid N.sub.2. The mixture was allowed to warm to 0.degree. C. and stirred at this temperature for 45 min. The hydrogen fluoride was then stripped off under reduced pressure, and the residue was washed with ethyl acetate to remove any remaining scavenger. The peptide was extracted with 30% acetic acid and filtered, and the filtrate was lyophilized.
The peptide-resin formed by the Fmoc protecting group method was dried under reduced pressure and then subjected to one of the following cleavage procedures, depending upon the amino-acid composition (Wade, Tregear, Howard Florey Fmoc Workshop Manual, Melbourne 1985). The suspension of the peptide-resin in the suitable TFA mixture was stirred at room temperature for the stated time and then the resin was filtered off and washed with TFA and DCM. The filtrate and the washings were concentrated, and the peptide was precipitated by addition of diethyl ether. After cooling in an ice bath, the precipitate was filtered off, taken up in 30% acetic acid and lyophilized.
When an o-chlorotrityl-resin (supplied by Biohellas) was used, the suspension of the peptide-resin in an acetic acid/trifluoroethanol/dichloromethane mixture (1:1:3) was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The suspension was then filtered with suction and the peptide-resin was thoroughly washed with the cleavage solution. The combined filtrates were concentrated in vacuo and treated with water. The precipitated solid was removed by filtration or centrifugation, washed with diethyl ether and dried under reduced pressure.
Purification and Characterization of the Peptides
Purification was carried out by gel chromatography (SEPHADEX G-10, G-15/10% HOAc, SEPHADEX LH20/MeOH) with or without subsequent medium pressure chromatography (stationary phase: HD-SIL C-18, 20-45 m, 100 .ANG.; mobile phase: gradient with A=0.1% TFA/MeOH, B=0.1% TFA/H.sub.2 O). The purity of the resulting products was determined by analytical HPLC (stationary phase: 100 2.1 mm VYDAC C-18, 5 1, 300 .ANG.; mobile phase: CH.sub.3 CN/H.sub.2 O gradient, buffered with 0.1% TFA, 40%C).
The polypeptides were characterized by amino-acid analysis and fast atom bombardment mass spectroscopy.

Evaluation of Biological Activity
In vitro methodology
Cytotoxicity was measured using a standard methodology for adherent cell lines, such as the microculture tetrazolium assay (MTT). Details of this assay have been published (Alley, M. C. et al., Cancer Research 48:589-601, 1988). Exponentially growing cultures of tumor cells such as the HT-29 colon carcinoma or LX-1 lung tumor were used to make microtiter plate cultures. Cells were seeded at 5000-20,000 cells per well in 96-well plates (in 150 mL of media), and grown overnight at 37.degree. C. Test compounds were added, in 10-fold dilutions varying from 10.sup.-4 M to 10.sup.-10 M. Cells were then incubated for 48 hours. To determine the number of viable cells in each well, the MTT dye was added (50 mL of a 3 mg/mL solution of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide in saline). This mixture was incubated at 37.degree. C. for 5 hours, and then 50 mL of 25% SDS, pH 2, was added to each well. After an overnight incubation, the absorbance of each well at 550 nm was read using an ELISA reader. The values for the mean .+-.SD of data from replicated wells were calculated, using the formula % T/C (% viable cells treated/control). The concentration of test compound which gives a T/C of 50% growth inhibition was designated as the IC.sub.50.

In vivo methodology
Compounds of this invention may be further tested in any of the various preclinical assays for in vivo activity which are indicative of clinical utility. Such assays are conducted with nude mice into which tumor tissue, preferably of human origin, has been transplanted ("xenografted"), as is well known in this field. Test compounds are evaluated for their anti-tumor efficacy following administration to the xenograft-bearing mice.
More specifically, human tumors which have been grown in athymic nude mice are transplanted into new recipient animals, using tumor fragments which are about 50 mg in size. The day of transplantation is designated as day 0. Six to ten days later, the mice are treated with the test compounds given as an intravenous or intraperitoneal injection, in groups of 5-10 mice at each dose. Compounds are given daily for 5 days, 10 days or 15 days, at doses from 10-100 mg/kg body weight. Tumor diameters and body weights are measured twice weekly. Tumor masses are calculated using the diameters measured with Vernier calipers, and the formula:
(length.times.width.sup.2)/2=mg of tumor weight
Mean tumor weights are calculated for each treatment group, and T/C values determined for each group relative to the untreated control tumors.
The novel compounds of the present invention show good in vitro activity in the above-mentioned assay system.
