Description
[0001] This invention relates to certain novel compounds, to a process for preparing such compounds, to pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds and to the use of such compounds and compositions in medicine.
[0002] Co-pending International Application, application number PCT/EP96/00157, publication number WO 96/21644, discloses certain indole derivatives of formula (A): formula (I):
1
[0003] or a salt thereof, or a solvate thereof, wherein
[0004] either: (i) R′a represents a group R′5 which is hydrogen, alkyl or optionally substituted aryl and R′b represents a moiety of formula (a′):
2
[0005] wherein X′ represents a hydroxy or an alkoxy group wherein the alkyl group may be substituted or unsubstituted or X′ represents a group NR′sR′t wherein R′s and R′t each independently represent hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, optionally substituted alkenyl, optionally substituted aryl, optionally substituted arylalkyl, an optionally substituted heterocyclic group or an optionally substituted heterocyclylalkyl group, or R′s and R′t together with the nitrogen to which they are attached form a heterocyclic group; R′1 represents an alkyl or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group; and R′2, R′3 and R′4 each independently represent hydrogen, alkyl, aryl or substituted aryl
[0006] or (ii) R′a represents a moiety of the above defined formula (a) and R′b represents the above defined R′5;
[0007] R′6 and R′7 each independently represents hydrogen, hydroxy, amino, alkoxy, optionally substituted aryloxy, optionally substituted benzyloxy, alkylamino, dialkylamino, halo, trifluoromethyl, trifluoromethoxy, nitro, alkyl, carboxy, carbalkoxy, carbamoyl, alkylcarbamoyl, or R′6 and R′7 together represent methylenedioxy, carbonyldioxy or carbonyldiamino; and
[0008] R′8 represents hydrogen, hydroxy, alkanoyl, alkyl, aminoalkyl, hydroxyalkyl, carboxyalkyl, carbalkoxyalkyl, carbamoyl or aminosulphonyl, which compounds are indicated interalia to reduce bone resorption by inhibiting osteoclast H+-ATPase.
[0009] Diseases associated with loss of bone mass are known to be caused by over activity of osteoclast cells. It is also known that certain compounds, usually related to bafilomycin, are useful for treating such diseases: For example International Patent Application, publication number WO 91/06296 discloses certain bafilomycin macrolides for the treatment of bone affecting diseases.
[0010] However, bafilomycin derivatives are not selective for osteoclasts in humans. The use of these compounds is therefore associated with unacceptable toxicity due to generalised blockade of other essential v-ATPases. Indeed, to date there is no known treatment which is selective for the human osteoclasts.
[0011] The search for a successful treatment for diseases associated with loss of bone mass in humans is further complicated in that the nature of the therapeutic target for the selective inhibition of the osteoclasts is controversial. Thus Baron et al (International Patent Application publication number WO93/01280) indicate that a specific vacuolar ATPase (V-ATPase) has been identified in osteoclasts as a potential therapeutic target. However, the Baron work was carried out in chickens and Hall et al (Bone and Mineral 27, 1994, 159-166), in a study relating to mammals, conclude that in contrast to avian osteoclast V-ATPase, mammalian osteoclast V-ATPase is pharmacologically similar to the v-ATPase in other cells and, therefore, it is unlikely to be a good therapeutic target.
[0012] We have now found a group of novel compounds from within the scope of WO 96/21644 which are especially selective for mammalian osteoclasts, especially human osteoclasts, acting to selectively inhibit their bone resorbing activity. These compounds are therefore considered to be particularly useful for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of diseases associated with loss of bone mass, such as osteoporosis and related osteopenic diseases, Paget's disease, hyperparathyroidism and related diseases. These compounds are also considered to possess anti-tumour activity, antiviral activity (for example against Semliki Forest, Vesicular Stomatitis, Newcastle Disease, Influenza A and B, HIV viruses), antiulcer activity (for example the compounds may be useful for the treatment of chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer induced by Helicobacter pylori), immunosupressant activity, antilipidemic activity, antiatherosclerotic activity and to be useful for the treatment of AIDS and Alzheimer's disease. In a further aspect, these compounds are also considered useful in inhibiting angiogenesis, i.e. the formation of new blood vessels which is observed in various types of pathological conditions (angiogenic diseases) such as rheumatoid arthritis, diabetic retinopathy, psoriasis and solid tumours
[0013] Accordingly, in its broadest aspect the the present invention provides a selective inhibitor of the biological activity of human osteoclast cells, in particular the bone resorption activity of human osteoclast cells associated with abnormal loss of bone mass, providing that such an inhibitor does not include any specific Example disclosed in WO 96/21644. In a further aspect the invention provides a selective inhibitor of the biological activity of human osteoclast cells, in particular the bone resorption activity of human osteoclast cells associated with abnormal loss of bone mass, providing that such an inhibitor does not include a compound of the hereinbefore defined compound of formula (A). A particular inhibitor of human osteoclast cells is a selective inhibitor of the vacuolar H+-ATPase located on the ruffled border of human osteoclasts.
[0014] In one particular aspect the selective inhibitor interacts specifically with the 16 kDa subunit of the vacuolar H+-ATPase located on the ruffled border of human osteoclasts whose function and structure is similar to other known 16 kDa subunits, for example that reported in P. C. Jones et al., Membrane Dynamics and Transport, 22, 805-809 (1994).
[0015] In a further particular aspect, the selective inhibitor interacts specifically with the 116 kDa subunit of the vacuolar H+-ATPase located on the ruffled border of human osteoclasts (for example the protein reported in Y-P. Li et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun, 218, 813-821 (1996)).

[0209] The reactions of condensation in (i) are performed under conventional reaction conditions as described in J. March, Advanced Organic Chemistry, 3rd Edition, 1985, Wiley Interscience
[0210] The reduction of the amide function in (i) is suitably carried out using known methods, for example by using mixed hydride reducing agents, such as lithium aluminium hydride and methods described in Org Synth Coll Vol 4 564.
[0211] Protection of the primary amino group in (i) can entail the use of classical carbamate protecting agents such as t-butoxycarbonyl (Boc), benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz) or fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc), or of the phthalimido protecting group. The synthesis and the removal of such protective groups is described in, for example, in Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, T. W Greene Ed., Wiley, New York, 1981
[0212] The reduction of the nitrile in (i) is suitably carried out using known methods, for example following the procedure described in J. Med. Chem., 39, 1514, (1996).

[0219] The reaction of the azide with triphenylphosphine in (v) is carried out in wet tetrahydrofuran as described in Bull Soc Chim Fr 1985, 815.
[0220] The azides in (v) are prepared as shown using azidotrimethylsilane, following the procedure described in Synthesis 1995, 376.
[0221] The reaction of compound Y1-A-Y2 and the amine derivative in (v) proceeds under conventional displacement reaction conditions.
[0222] The reactions in (vi) can be performed using known, conventional methods, as described in J. March, Advanced Organic Chemistry, 3rd Edition, 1985, Wiley Interscience. For example, oxidation can be performed using oxidising agents such as chromic acid (Jones reagent); reductive amination of the ketone in can be performed with benzylamine to give an imine intermediate which is then reduced using known methods and reducing agents such as sodium borohydride or lithium aluminium hydride. Debenzylation can then be performed again using conventional methods, for example with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst such as palladium on charcoal. Protection of ketone as the ethylene ketal can be performed with ethylene glycol under acidic catalysis; acylations or alkylations can be performed by treating the suitable piperidine derivatives with acyl or alkyl halides in the presence of an inorganic or organic base; deprotection of the dioxolane to the ketone can be effected by acidic treatment in aqueous or alcoholic solvents. Protection on the primary amino group in 4 aminopiperidines can entail the use of classical carbamate protecting agents such as t-butoxycarbonyl (Boc), benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz) or fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc), or of the phthalimido protecting group: the synthesis and the removal of such protective groups is described in, for example, in Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, T. W Greene Ed., Wiley, New York, 1981. 4-Oxopiperidines can be converted into the corresponding oximes by treatment with hydroxyl- or alkoxyl-amine in a suitable solvent; reduction of the oxime to amine can be performed using conventional reducing agents such as lithium aluminium hydride or sodium cyanoborohydryde.
[0223] The starting materials in the above reactions (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii) are known, commercially available compounds.
[0224] A compound of formula (I) or a solvate thereof may be isolated from the above mentioned processes according to standard chemical procedures.
[0225] The preparation of salts and/or solvates of the compounds of formula (I) may be performed using the appropriate conventional procedure.
[0226] If required mixtures of isomers of the compounds of the invention may be separated into individual stereoisomers and diastereoisomers by conventional means, for example by the use of an optically active acid as a resolving agent. Suitable optically active acids which may be used as resolving agents are described in “Topics in Stereochemistry”, Vol. 6, Wiley Interscience, 1971, Allinger, N. L. and Eliel, W. L. Eds.
[0227] Alternatively, any enantiomer of a compound of the invention may be obtained by stereospecific synthesis using optically pure starting materials of known configuration.
[0228] The absolute configuration of compounds may be determined by conventional methods such as X-ray crystallographic techniques.
[0229] The protection of any reactive group or atom, may be carried out at any appropriate stage in the aforementioned processes. Suitable protecting groups include those used conventionally in the art for the particular group or atom being protected. Protecting groups may be prepared and removed using the appropriate conventional procedure, for example OH groups, including diols, may be protected as the silylated derivatives by treatment with an appropriate silylating agent such as di-tert-butylsilylbis(trifluoromethanesulfonate): the silyl group may then be removed using conventional procedures such as treatment with hydrogen fluoride, preferably in the form of a pyridine complex and optionally in the presence of alumina, or by treatment with acetyl chloride in methanol. Alternatively benzyloxy groups may be used to protect phenolic groups, the benzyloxy group may be removed using catalytic hydrogenolysis using such catalysts as palladium (II) chloride or 10% palladium on carbon.
[0230] Amino groups may be protected using any conventional protecting group, for example tert-butyl esters of carbamic acid may be formed by treating the amino group with di-tert-butyldicarbonate, the amino group being regenerated by hydrolysing the ester under acidic conditions, using for example hydrogen chloride in ethyl acetate or trifluoroacetic acid in methylene dichloride. An amino group may be protected as a benzyl derivative, prepared from the appropriate amine and a benzyl halide under basic conditions, the benzyl group being removed by catalytic hydrogenolysis, using for example a palladium on carbon catalyst.
[0231] Indole NH groups and the like may be protected using any conventional group, for example benzenesulphonyl, methylsulphonyl, tosyl, formyl, acetyl (all of them removable by treatment with alkaline reagents), benzyl (removable either with sodium in liquid ammonia or with AlCl3 in toluene), allyl (removable by treatment with rhodium (III) chloride under acidic conditions), benzyloxycarbonyl (removable either by catalytic hydrogenation or by alkaline treatment), trifluoroacetyl (removable by either alkaline or acidic treatment), t-butyldimethylsilyl (removable by treatment with tetrabutylammonium fluoride), 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxymethyl (SEM) (removable by treatment with tetrabutylammonium fluoride in the presence of ethylendiamine), methoxymethyl (MOM) or methoxyethyl (MEM) groups (removed by mild acidic treatment).
[0232] Carboxyl groups may be protected as alkyl esters, for example methyl esters, which esters may be prepared and removed using conventional procedures, one convenient method for converting carbomethoxy to carboxyl is to use aqueous lithium hydroxide.
[0233] A leaving group or atom is any group or atom that will, under the reaction conditions, cleave from the starting material, thus promoting reaction at a specified site. Suitable examples of such groups unless otherwise specified are halogen atoms, mesyloxy, p-nitrobenzensulphonyloxy and tosyloxy groups.
[0234] The salts, esters, amides and solvates of the compounds mentioned herein may as required be produced by methods conventional in the art: for example, acid addition salts may be prepared by treating a compound of formula (I) with the appropriate acid.
[0235] Esters of carboxylic acids may be prepared by conventional esterification procedures, for example alkyl esters may be prepared by treating the required carboxylic acid with the appropriate alkanol, generally under acidic conditions.
[0236] Amides may be prepared using conventional amidation procedures, for example amides of formula CONRsRt may be prepared by treating the relevant carboxylic acid with an amine of formula HN RsRt wherein Rs and Rt are as defined above. Alternatively, a C1-6 alkyl ester such as a methyl ester of the acid may be treated with an amine of the above defined formula HNRsRt to provide the required amide.

[0278] A selective inhibitor of the pharmacological activity of human osteoclast cells such as a compound of formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate thereof, may be administered per se or, preferably, as a pharmaceutical composition also comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
[0279] Accordingly, the present invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a selective inhibitor of the pharmacological activity of human osteoclast cells, in particular the bone resorption activity of human osteoclast cells associated with abnormal loss of bone mass, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier thereof.
[0280] A particular inhibitor of human osteoclast cells is a selective inhibitor of human osteoclast vacuolar ATPase such as a compound of formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier thereof.
[0281] Active compounds or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate thereof is normally administered in unit dosage form.
[0282] An amount effective to treat the disorders hereinbefore described depends upon such factors as the efficacy of the active compounds, the particular nature of the pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutically acceptable solvate chosen, the nature and severity of the disorders being treated and the weight of the mammal. However, a unit dose will normally contain 0.01 to 50 mg, for example 1 to 25 mg, of the compound of the invention. Unit doses will normally be administered once or more than once a day, for example 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 times a day, more usually 1 to 3 or 2 to 4 times a day such that the total daily dose is normally in the range, for a 70 kg adult of 0.01 to 250 mg, more usually 1 to 100 mg, for example 5 to 70 mg, that is in the range of approximately 0.0001 to 3.5 mg/kg/day, more usually 0.01 to 1.5 mg/kg/day, for example 0.05 to 0.7 mg/kg/day.
[0283] At the above described dosage range, no toxicological effects are indicated for the compounds of the invention.
[0284] The present invention also provides a method for the treatment of tumours, especially those related to renal cancer, melanoma, colon cancer, lung cancer and leukemia, viral conditions (for example those involving Semliki Forest, Vesicular Stomatitis, Newcastle Disease, Influenza A and B, HIV viruses), ulcers (for example chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer induced by Helicobacter pylori), autoimmune diseases and transplantation, for the treatment and/or prevention of hypercholesterolemic and atherosclerotic diseases, AIDS and Alzheimer's disease, angiogenic diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, diabetic retinopathy, psoriasis and solid tumours, in a human or non-human mammal, which comprises administering an effective, non-toxic, amount of a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate thereof, to a human or non-human mammal in need thereof.
[0285] In such treatments the active compound may be administered by any suitable route, e.g. by the oral, parenteral or topical routes. For such use, the compound will normally be employed in the form of a pharmaceutical composition in association with a human or veterinary pharmaceutical carrier, diluent and/or excipient, although the exact form of the composition will naturally depend on the mode of administration.
[0286] Compositions are prepared by admixture and are suitably adapted for oral, parenteral or topical administration, and as such may be in the form of tablets, capsules, oral liquid preparations, powders, granules, lozenges, pastilles,-reconstitutable powders, injectable and infusable solutions or suspensions, suppositories and transdermal devices. Orally administrable compositions are preferred, in particular shaped oral compositions, since they are more convenient for general use.
[0287] Tablets and capsules for oral administration are usually presented in a unit dose, and contain conventional excipients such as binding agents, fillers, diluents, tabletting agents, lubricants, disintegrants, colourants, flavourings, and wetting agents. The tablets may be coated according to well known methods in the art.
[0288] Suitable fillers for use include cellulose, mannitol, lactose and other similar agents. Suitable disintegrants include starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone and starch derivatives such as sodium starch glycollate. Suitable lubricants include, for example, magnesium stearate. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable wetting agents include sodium lauryl sulphate.
[0289] These solid oral compositions may be prepared by conventional methods of blending, filling, tabletting or the like. Repeated blending operations may be used to distribute the active agent throughout those compositions employing large quantities of fillers. Such operations are, of course, conventional in the art.
[0290] Oral liquid preparations may be in the form of, for example, aqueous or oily suspensions, solutions, emulsions, syrups, or elixirs, or may be presented as a dry product for reconstitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may contain conventional additives such as suspending agents, for example sorbitol, syrup, methyl cellulose, gelatin, hydroxyethylcellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, aluminium stearate gel or hydrogenated edible fats, emulsifying agents, for example lecithin, sorbitan monooleate, or acacia; non-aqueous vehicles (which may include edible oils), for example, almond oil, fractionated coconut oil, oily esters such as esters of glycerine, propylene glycol, or ethyl alcohol; preservatives, for example methyl or propyl p-hydroxybenzoate or sorbic acid, and if desired conventional flavouring or colouring agents.
[0291] For parenteral administration, fluid unit dose forms are prepared containing a compound of the present invention and a sterile vehicle. The compound, depending on the vehicle and the concentration, can be either suspended or dissolved. Parenteral solutions are normally prepared by dissolving the compound in a vehicle and filter sterilising before filling into a suitable vial or ampoule and sealing. Advantageously, adjuvants such as a local anaesthetic, preservatives and buffering agents are also dissolved in the vehicle. To enhance the stability, the composition can be frozen after filling into the vial and the water removed under vacuum.
[0292] Parenteral suspensions are prepared in substantially the same manner except that the compound is suspended in the vehicle instead of being dissolved and sterilised by exposure to ethylene oxide before suspending in the sterile vehicle. Advantageously, a surfactant or wetting agent is included in the composition to facilitate uniform distribution of the active compound.
[0293] For topical administration, the composition may be in the form of a transdermal ointment or patch for systemic delivery of the active compound and may be prepared in a conventional manner, for example, as described in the standard textbooks such as ‘Dermatological Formulations’—B. W. Barry (Drugs and the Pharmaceutical Sciences—Dekker) or Harrys Cosmeticology (Leonard Hill Books).
[0294] The present invention also provides the use of a selective inhibitor of the biological activity of human osteoclast cells, in particular the bone resorption activity of human osteoclast cells associated with abnormal loss of bone mass, compound of formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate thereof, for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of diseases associated with over activity of osteoclasts in mammals, such as the treatment and/or prophylaxis of osteoporosis and related osteopenic diseases.
[0295] The present invention also provides the use of a selective inhibitor of the biological activity of human osteoclast cells, in particular the bone resorption activity of human osteoclast cells associated with abnormal loss of bone mass, for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of tumours, especially those related to renal cancer, melanoma, colon cancer, lung cancer and leukemia, viral conditions (for example those involving Semliki Forest, Vesicular Stomatitis, Newcastle Disease, Influenza A and B, HIV viruses), ulcers (for example chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer induced by Helicobacter pylori), autoimmune diseases and transplantation, for the treatment and/or prevention of hypercholesterolemic and atherosclerotic diseases, AIDS and Alzheimer's disease, angiogenic diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, diabetic retinopathy, psoriasis and solid tumours.
[0296] In one preferred aspect the inventions herein comprising compositions, treatment methods and pharmaceutical uses of a selective inhibitor of the biological activity of mammalian, including human, osteoclast cells exclude the compositions, treatment methods and pharmaceutical uses of the compounds of formula (I) of WO96/21644 and in another aspect the specific examples of WO96/21644.
[0297] No unacceptable toxicological effects are expected with compounds of the invention when administered in accordance with the invention. As is common practice, the compositions will usually be accompanied by written or printed directions for use in the medical treatment concerned.

[0353] Biological Assays
[0354] Background. It is known that, upon attachment to bone, an electrogenic H+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) is polarised to the osteoclast-bone interface. The pump transports massive quantities of protons into the resorption microenvironment to effect mobilisation of the bone mineral and to create the acidic pH required by collagenases to degrade the bone matrix.
[0355] The vacuolar nature of the osteoclast proton pump was originally recognised by Blair [H. C. Blair at al., Science, 245, 855 (1989)] and than confirmed by Bekker [P. J. Bekker et al., J. Bone Min. Res., 5, 569 (1990)] and V{umlaut over (aa)}nänen [K. K. V{umlaut over (aa)}nänen et al., J. Cell. Biol., 111, 1305 (1990)]. Evidence was based upon preparations of ruffled membrane fragments from avian osteoclasts (obtained from the medullar bone of calcium-starved egg-laying hens). The resulting membrane vesicles acidify in response to ATP, which is easily assessed by measuring the fluorescence quench of acridine orange, a weak base which accumulates into acidic compartments.
[0356] The biochemical pattern indicated that the osteoclast proton pump belonged to the vacuolar-like ATPases since proton transport was inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), a sulphydryl reagent, and by bafilomycin A1, a selective inhibitor of vacuolar H+-ATPases [J. E. Bowman et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 85, 7972 (1988)], whilst it was not inhibited by ouabain, an inhibitor of Na+/K+-ATPases; sodium orthovanadate, an inhibitor of p-ATPases, or by omeprazole or SCH 28080, both of which are inhibitors of gastric H+/K+-ATPase [J. P. Mattson et al., Acta Physiol. Scand., 146, 253 (1992)].
[0357] It is known that specific inhibitors of vacuolar ATPases, such as bafilomycin A1, are able to inhibit bone resorption in osteoclast cultures [K. Sundquist et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 168, 309-313 (1990)]
[0358] Inhibition of Proton Transport and v-ATPase Activity in Membrane Vesicles
[0359] Preparation of Crude Bone Microsomes from Calcium-Starved Egg-Laying Hens.
[0360] Vesicles were prepared from medullar bone obtained from tibiae and femurs of egg-laying hens which were calcium-starved for at least 15 days. Briefly, bone fragments were scraped with a 24 scalpel blade, suspended in 40 ml of isolation medium (0.2 M sucrose, 50 mM KCl, 10 mM Hepes, 1 mM EGTA, 2 mM dithiotheitrol, pH 7.4) and filtered through a 100 μm pore size nylon mesh. The whole procedure was performed at 4° C. After homogenisation in a potter (20 strokes) in 40 ml of isolation medium an initial centrifugation (6,500×gmax×20 min) was performed to remove mitochondria and lysosomes. The supernatant was centrifuged at 100,000×gmax for 1 hr and the pellet was collected in 1 ml of isolation medium, divided into 200 μl aliquots, immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at −80° C. The protein content was determined using a Biorad colourimetric kit according to Bradford [M. Bradford, Anal. Biochem., 72, 248 (1976)]. For the proton transport assay, 5-10 μl of membranes were used.
[0361] Purification of osteoclast membranes. 1 ml of crude microsomal vesicles prepared above were applied (about 0.2 ml per tube) on the top of a sucrose step-gradient consisting of 3.5 ml of 15%, 30% and 45% (w/w) sucrose in isolation medium and centrifuged at 280,000 gmax for 2 hours (SW 41 Ti rotor). After centrifugation the 30-45% sucrose interfaces were collected, diluted approx. 20-fold in isolation medium and pelletted at 100,000 gmax for 1 hour (SW 28 rotor). The pellet was then resuspended in 1 ml of isolation medium, aliquoted and frozen in liquid N2 and stored at −80° C. until used.
[0362] Human kidney membranes were obtained from the cortex of a human kidney, frozen immediately after surgery, according to the method reported in the literature for bovine kidney (S. Gluck, J. Biol. Chem., 265, 21957 (1990)).
[0363] Proton transport in membrane vesicles was assessed, semi-quantitatively, by measuring the initial slope of fluorescence quench of acridine orange (excitation 490 nm; emission 530) after addition of 5-20 μl of membrane vesicles in 1 ml of buffer containing 0.2 M sucrose, 50 mM KCl, 10 mM Hepes pH 7.4, 1 mM ATP.Na2, 1 mM CDTA, 5 μM valinomycin and 4 μM acridine orange. The reaction was started by addition of 5 mM MgSO4. Results were expressed as the percent of the mean of two controls.
[0364] Inhibition of bafilomycin-sensitive ATPase activity was assessed in purified membrane vesicles by measuring the release of inorganic phosphate (Pi) during 30 min of incubation at 37° C. in a 96-well plate either in the presence or in the absence of bafilomycin A1. The reaction medium contained 1 mM ATP, 10 mM HEPES-Tris pH 8, 50 mM KCl, 5 uM valinomycin, 5 uM nigericin, 1 mM CDTA-Tris, 100 uM ammonium molybdate, 0.2 M sucrose and membranes (20 ug protein/ml). The reaction was initiated by MgSO4 (8-arm pipette) and stopped, after 30 min, by addition of 4 volumes of the malachite green reagent (96-arm pipette) prepared according to Chan [Anal. Biochem. 157, 375 (1986)]. Absorbance at 650 nm was measured after 2 min using a microplate reader. Results are expressed as μmol (Pi)×mg protein−1×hour−1 and, for each experiment, represent the mean±sem of triplicates.

[0368] Inhibition of Bone Resorption
[0369] In vitro Assays
[0370] 1) Bone resorption by disaggregated rat osteoclasts can be assessed as described previously in the literature [T. J. Chambers et al., Endocrinology, 1985, 116, 234]. Briefly, osteoclasts were mechanically disaggregated from neonatal rat long bones into Hepes-buffered medium 199 (Flow, UK). The suspension was agitated with a pipette, and the larger fragments were allowed to settle for 30 sec. The cells were then added to two wells of a multiwell dish containing bone slices (each measuring 12 mm2). After 15 min at 37° C. the bone slices were removed, washed in medium 199 and placed in individual wells of a 96-well plate. These were incubated for 24 hrs in a total volume of 2 ml of culture medium, consisting of 10% foetal calf serum in Hanks-buffered MEM, in the presence or absence of drug. The number of osteoclasts and bone resorption were quantified by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM): the bone slices were fixed with 2% glutaraldehyde in 0.2 M cacodylate buffer and the osteoclasts on each bone slice were stained for tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase. After counting the number of large, multinucleated, red-stained cells, the bone slices were immersed in 10% sodium hypochlorite for 5 min to remove cells, washed in distilled water and sputter-coated with gold. The entire surface of each bone slice was then examined in CLSM. The number and the size of the osteoclastic excavations, the plain area and the volume of bone resorbed was recorded. Results were expressed as mean pit number per bone slice, mean pit number per osteoclast, mean area per osteoclast or mean volume per osteoclast.
[0371] 2) Bone resorption by human osteoclasts can be assessed using a modification of the method above. Briefly, human osteoclasts are purified from human giant cell tumours by negative selection using Pan Human HLA II antibodies in conjunction with Dynal magnetic beads. Osteoclasts are seeded onto bovine bone slices in Hepes-buffered medium 199 (Flow, UK). After 30 minutes, the bone slices are transferred into a 24-well multi-plate (4 slices per well) containing 2 ml/well of medium, consisting of 10% foetal calf serum in D-MEM. One hour later, vehicle (DMSO) or test compounds at different concentrations in DMSO were added and incubation was continued for 47 hours. Bone slices were then treated and analysed as described above for the rat osteoclast assay.
[0372] 3) Inhibition of PTH-stimulated 45Ca2+ release from pre-labelled foetal rat long bone. The assay is based on that described by Raisz (J. Clin. Invest. 44:103-116, 1965). Time-mated Sprague-Dawley rats were injected subcutaneously with 200 mCi of 45CaCl2 on the 18th day of gestation. On the following day, the foetuses were removed aseptically and the radii and ulnae were dissected free of adjacent soft tissue and the cartilaginous ends, and then cultured for 24 hr at 37° C. in BGJ medium containing 1 mg/ml BSA. The bones were then transferred to fresh medium containing the test compounds (0.1-50 μM) with and without PTH (12 nM) and were incubated for an additional 48 hr. The media were collected and the bones extracted to determine the mean % calcium release by scintillation counting. Results were expressed as the % inhibition compared to the amount of calcium released from cultures incubated with PTH alone
[0373] In vivo Assays
[0374] Prevention of retinoid-induced hypercalcaemia. The method used was that described by Trechsel et al., (J. Clin. Invest. 80:1679-1686, 1987). Briefly, male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 160-200 g (10 per group) were thyroparathyroidectomised and were treated subcutaneously with the retinoid Ro 13-6298 (30 μg/day) for three days and this was found to significantly increase blood serum calcium by 4-5 mg/100 ml. For inhibition of this effect, rats were treated simultaneously with test compounds i.v. or p.o. at 0.1-100 mg/kg, or vehicle and blood calcium was measured as described above, before treatment and one day after the last administration. Results were expressed as % inhibition with respect to vehicle-treated animals.
[0375] Prevention of bone loss in osteoporosis induced by ovariectomy and immobilisation. Seven groups of 10 Sprague-Dawley rats (200 g) underwent ovariectomy plus neurectomy of the sciatic nerve in the right hind limb, while one group was sham-operated according to the method described by Hayashi et al., (Bone 10:25-28, 1989). It was demonstrated that a steady-state was attained in the amount of trabecular bone lost 6-12 weeks after the operations. During a 6-week period, the operated animals received the test compounds (0.1-100 mg/kg p.o. u.i.d.), or vehicle. At the end of this treatment period, the animals were sacrificed and the tibia and femur of the hind limb removed. The tibia wet and dry weight were determined, and the density (displacement of water) and ashes content (total weight, calcium and phosphorous content) also measured. The femur were fixed in 10% formalin, de-mineralised in 5% formic acid and the coronal midshaft and longitudinal section of the distal metaphysis cut and stained with haematoxilin and eosin. Histomorphometric evaluation was made using a semi-automated image analyser (Immagini & Computer, Milan, Italy). In the distal metaphysis, the % trabecular bone area in the secondary spongiosa (which is the trabecular bone 1 mm from the epiphyseal growth plate to about 4 mm towards the midshaft giving a total area of 5 mm2) and the number of trabeculae (according to Parfitt et al., J. Bone Min. Res. 2: 595, (1987)) were determined in all animals. In the midshaft, the medullary, cortical (CA) and total (TA) cross-sectional area was measured and the cortical index (CI) determined from the formula CI=CA/TA.
[0376] Prevention of bone loss in ovariectomised mature rats. The methodology employed is based on that described by Wronsky et al. [J. Bone Min. Res., 6, 387 (1991)]. The bone loss, prevalently cancellous, occuring after the surgery is monitored by dual emission X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) measurements of bone mineral density (BMD) of long bones and by HPLC measurements of urinary levels of products of bone collagen breakdown, such as the cross-link residues pyridinoline (PYD), deoxypyridinoline (DPD) and lysine glycosides, i.e. galactosyl-hydroxylysine (GHYL) and glucosyl-galactosyl-hydroxylysine (GGHYL). Groups of 7-10 female Sprague-Dawley rats, about 90 days old and weighing 200-250 g are used. Rats are anesthetised by sodium pentobarbital (35 mg/kg i.v.), laparotomy is performed and ovaries are bilaterally removed. Wounds are adequately disinfected and sutured. A group is sham operated. During a 4-week experimental period, the operated animals receive test compounds in the appropiate vehicle (0.1-100 mg/kg p.o. u.i.d.) or vehicle alone. Twenty-four-hr urine samples are collected for PYD, DPD, GHYL and GGHYL determinations before and 2, 4, 8, 11, 15, 18, 22 and 25 days after surgery. The aliquots of urine are frozen and stored at −20° C. until HPLC analysis.
[0377] Before and at the end of the experimental period, the bone metaphyseal mineral densities of left distal femur and proximal tibia were evaluated in vivo using lightly anaesthetised animals. Results are expressed as % of prevention of bone loss versus vehicle treated animals, using the following equation, where BMD indicates the bone mineral density at the end of the experimental period and is expressed as the percent of pre-ovariectomy baseline:
