Method of using triaryl-ethylene derivatives in the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method of using triaryl-ethylene derivatives in the treatment or prevention osteoporosis or bone tissue loss. Osteoporosis is a significant problem for the developed nations. The term osteoporosis is often used to describe different clinical situations. Osteoporosis was first used to describe the syndrome in which post-menopausal women tended to suffer vertebral fractures. F. Albright et al., J. Am. Med. Assoc. 116, 2465-2474 (1941). To avoid ambiguity, the terms bone tissue loss or osteopenia are used to describe the clinical situation in which loss of bone mass or density has occurred in the absence of a fracture.
Osteoporosis is most commonly associated with post-menoapuse and age related bone tissue loss. Osteoporosis or bone tissue loss can also occur secondarily to various drugs and diseases, including: corticosteroids, anticonvulsants, alcohol, malabsorption syndromes, primary biliary cirrhosis, myeloma, thalassemia, thyrotoxicosis, Cushing's syndrome, Turner's syndrome, and primary hyperparathyroidism.

The compounds of Formula I and II in which Y is O can be prepared as described in Scheme A. All substituents, unless otherwise indicated, are previously defined. The reagents and starting materials are readily available to one of ordinary skill in the art. ##STR13##
In Scheme A, step a, an appropriate triaryl-ethylene of structure 1 is chlorinated or brominated to give a halotriaryl-ethylene of structure 2.
An appropriate triaryl-ethylene of the structure 1 is one in which R.sub.8 is hydrogen, an .omega.-haloalkyl group, Z(CH.sub.2).sub.m -- in which Z may be a chlorine atom, a bromine atom, or a iodine atom and m is as desired in the final product, or a suitable hydroxy protecting group; R.sub.6 is as defined for R.sub.2, or R.sub.6 is a suitably protected hydroxy which after deprotection provide compounds of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.2 is a hydroxy group; and R.sub.7 is as defined for R.sub.3, or R.sub.7 is a suitably protected hydroxy which after deprotection provide compounds of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.3 is a hydroxy group, or provides an intermediate for the preparation of a compound of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A=A.sub.1 ; or R.sub.7 is a suitably protected hydroxy which allows for removal in a sequential manner providing an intermediate for the preparation of compounds of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p.noteq.m and either A=A.sub.1 or A.noteq.A.sub.1, or in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A.noteq.A.sub.1. The selection, use, removal, and sequential removal of suitable hydroxy protecting groups, such as benzyl, p-methoxybenzyl, methyl, t-butyldimethylsilyl, and acetyl, is well known and appreciated in the art and described in Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis by T. Greene.
For example, an appropriate triaryl-ethylene of structure 1 is contacted with a molar excess of chlorine, bromine, N-chlorosuccinimide, or N-bromosuccinimide in a suitable solvent, such as chloroform, chlorobenzene, or dichloromethane. The reaction is carried out at temperatures from ambient temperature to the reflux temperature of the solvent. After stirring for from 1-72 hours the product can be isolated and purified by techniques well known in the art. For example, the reaction mixture can be concentrated in vacuo and the product purified by chromatography on silica gel eluting with a suitable organic solvent. The material obtained can be further purified, if desired, by recrystallization from a suitable organic solvent to give a halo-triaryl-ethylene of structure 2.
As is appreciated by one of ordinary skill in the art, when a halo-triaryl-ethylene of structure 2 is derived from a triaryl-ethylene of structure 1 in which R.sub.8 is a suitable hydroxy protecting group, the protecting group is removed before step b can be carried out. When a halo-triaryl-ethylene of structure 2 is derived from a triaryl-ethylene of structure 1 in which R.sub.8 is a suitable protecting group and R.sub.7 is a suitably protected hydroxy either the protecting groups are removed before step b is carried out or they are removed in a sequential manner. When the protecting groups are removed in a sequential manner intermediates are provided for the preparation of compounds of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p.noteq.m and either A=A.sub.1 or A.noteq.A.sub.1 and in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A.noteq.A.sub.1.
In Scheme A, step b, a halo-triaryl-ethylene of structure 2 is contacted with an appropriate dihaloalkane to form a .omega.-haloalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 3.
An appropriate dihaloalkane, Z(CH.sub.2).sub.m Z.sub.1, is one in which Z and Z.sub.1 each may be independently a chlorine atom, a bromine atom, or a iodine atom and m is as desired in the final product of Formula I and Formula II.
For example, a halo-triaryl-ethylene of structure 2 is contacted with a 1.1 to 10 fold molar excess of an appropriate dihaloalkane. The reaction is carried out in the presence of a suitable base, such as sodium ethoxide, sodium methoxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, and sodium carbonate. The reaction is carried out in a solvent, such as ethanol, methanol, tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, dimethylformamide, or dimethyl sulfoxide. The reaction is carried out at temperatures of from 0.degree. C. to the refluxing temperature of the solvent. For compounds of structure 2 in which R.sub.8 is hydrogen and R.sub.7 is a hydroxy group the use 1.1 molar equivalents of an appropriate dihaloalkane and a suitable base allows for the preparation of a compound of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.7 is a hydroxy group. For compounds of structure 2 in which R.sub.8 is hydrogen and R.sub.7 is a hydroxy group the use of from 2 to 10 molar equivalents of an appropriate dihaloalkane and a suitable base gives an bis-.omega.-haloalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene which is an intermediate in the production of a compound of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A=A.sub.1. A .omega.-haloalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 3 may be isolated from the reaction zone by evaporation and extraction and may be purified by methods well known in the art, such as chromatography and recrystallization.
In Scheme A, step c, .omega.-haloalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 3 is contacted with an appropriate amine, HNRR.sub.1, in which R and R.sub.1 are as defined above, morpholine, piperidine, piperazine, 4-methylpiperazine, or pyrrolidine to give .omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 4.
For example, .omega.-haloalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 2 is contacted with a large molar excess of an appropriate amine in a solvent, such as ethanol, methanol, water, ethanol/water mixtures, or methanol/water mixtures. A large molar excess of amine is used so that the amine can also acts as a base to take up the acid liberated in the reaction. The reaction may be carried out in the presence of a suitable catalyst, such as potassium iodide. The reaction vessel may be sealed to prevent the escape of volatile amines. The reaction mixture is heated to temperatures of from 40.degree. C. to 100.degree. C. For compounds of structure 3 in which R.sub.7 is a .omega.-haloalkoxy group the use of an additional portion of an appropriate amine gives a bis-.omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene which is a compound of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A=A.sub.1. The product can be isolated and purified by techniques well known in the art. For example, the reaction mixture can be concentrated in vacuo and the product purified by techniques well known in the art, such as salt formation, chromatography eluting with a suitable solvent, or recrystallization from a suitable organic solvent.
In Scheme A, step a, may be carried out before or after steps b and c are carried out.
In Scheme A, optional step d, for a .omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 4 in which R.sub.6 or R.sub.7 is a protected hydroxy group may be deprotected to provide .omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 5 in which either, R.sub.2 or R.sub.3, or R.sub.2 and R.sub.3, are hydroxy as desired in the final product of Formula I and Formula II. As is appreciated by one skilled in the art the compounds of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.3 is hydroxy can be, by sequentially performing the steps of Scheme A, used as intermediates for preparing compounds of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p.noteq.m and either A=A.sub.1 or A.noteq.A.sub.1 or in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A.noteq.A.sub.1.
The selection, use, removal, and sequential removal of suitable hydroxy protecting groups is well known and appreciated in the art and described in Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis by T. Greene.
In Scheme A, step e, the isomers of a .omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 4 or 5 can be separated to give a (E)-.omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 4 or 5 and the (Z)-.omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 4 or 5.
For example, the isomers of compounds of structure 5 can be separated and purified by high-performance liquid chromatography or recrystallization of salt to give a (E)-.omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene and a (Z)-.omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene.
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of a (E)-.omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of or of a (Z)-.omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene can be formed in an additional step as is well known and practiced in the art.

In Scheme B, step a, an appropriate .omega.-aminoalcohol is added by a Mitsunobu addition to an appropriate triaryl-ethylene of structure 1 in which R.sub.8 is hydrogen to give a .omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 8.
An appropriate .omega.-aminoalcohol, HO--(CH.sub.2).sub.m --A, is one in which A and m are as desired in the final product of Formula I and Formula II. An appropriate triaryl-ethylene of the structure 1 is one in which R.sub.8 is hydrogen; R.sub.6 is as defined for R.sub.2, or R.sub.6 is a suitably protected hydroxy which after deprotection provide compounds of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.2 is a hydroxy group; and R.sub.7 is as defined for R.sub.3, or R.sub.7 is a suitably protected hydroxy which after deprotection provide compounds of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.3 is a hydroxy group, or provides an intermediate for the preparation of a compound of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A=A.sub.1 ; or R.sub.7 is a suitably protected hydroxy which allows for removal in a sequential manner providing an intermediate for the preparation of compounds of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p.noteq.m and either A=A.sub.1 or A.noteq.A.sub.1, or in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A.noteq.A.sub.1. The selection, use, removal, and sequential removal of suitable hydroxy protecting groups, such as benzyl, p-methoxybenzyl, methyl, t-butyldimethylsilyl, and acetyl, is well known and appreciated in the art and described in Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis by T. Greene.
For example, an appropriate .omega.-aminoalcohol is contacted with a molar equivalent of a triaryl-ethylene of structure 1 in which R.sub.8 is hydrogen and a molar equivalent of triphenylphosphine in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran (THF). Diethyl azodicarboxylate neat or as a solution in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran is added. After stirring for from 1-72 hours the product can be isolated and purified by techniques well known in the art. For the preparation of compounds of Formula I and Formula II in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A=A.sub.1 a compound in which R.sub.7 is hydroxy is used along with an additional equivalent of an appropriate .omega.-aminoalcohol, triphenylphosphine, and diethyl azodicarboxylate are used. The reaction mixture can be concentrated in vacuo to give a residue. The residue can be chromatographed on silica gel using a suitable organic eluent. The material obtained from chromatography can be recrystallized to give a .omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 8.
In Scheme B, step b, a .omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 8 is chlorinated or brominated to give a .omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 4.
For example, a .omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 8 is contacted with a molar excess of chlorine, bromine, N-chlorosuccinimide, or N-bromosuccinimide in a suitable solvent, such as chloroform or dichloromethane. The reaction is carried out at temperatures from ambient temperature to the reflux temperature of the solvent. After stirring for from 12-72 hours the product can be isolated and purified by techniques well known in the art. For example, the reaction mixture can be concentrated in vacuo and the product purified by techniques well known in the art, such as salt formation, chromatography eluting with a suitable solvent, or recrystallization from a suitable organic solvent.
In Scheme B, steps a and b, can be carried out in any order.
In Scheme B, Optional step c, for a .omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 4 in which R.sub.6 or R.sub.7 are a protected hydroxy group the protecting group is removed in a deprotection step to provide a .omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene of structure 5 in which either, R.sub.2 or R.sub.3, or R.sub.2 and R.sub.3, are hydroxy as desired in the final product of Formula I and Formula II. The production of a compound of Formula I and II in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p.noteq.m and either A=A.sub.1 or A.noteq.A.sub.1 or in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and either A=A.sub.1 or A.noteq.A.sub.1 may require the removal of protecting groups in a sequential manner to provide a compound of the structure 4 in which R.sub.7 is a hydroxy group. As is apparent to one skilled in the art a compound of the structure 4 in which R.sub.7 is a hydroxy group can be subjected to steps b and c of Scheme A or step a of Scheme B to give a bis-.omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene compound of Formula I and II in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p.noteq.m and either A=A.sub.1 or A.noteq.A.sub.1 or in which R.sub.3 is --O(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A.noteq.A.sub.1 or a bis-.omega.-aminoalkoxy-triaryl-ethylene compound of Formula I and II wherein p=m and A=A.sub.1.
The selection, use, removal, and sequential removal of suitable hydroxy protecting groups, such as benzyl, p-methoxybenzyl, methyl, t-butyldimethylsilyl, and acetyl, is well known and appreciated in the art and described in Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis by T. Greene.

All substituents, unless otherwise indicated, are previously defined. The reagents and starting materials are readily available to one of ordinary skill in the art. ##STR41##
In Scheme C, step a, an appropriate .omega.-haloalkylacid halide, Z--(CH.sub.2).sub.q --C(O)Z.sub.1, is added to an appropriate amino-triaryl-ethylene of structure 9 in an acylation reaction to give a .omega.-haloalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 10.
An appropriate .omega.-haloalkylacid halide, Z--(CH.sub.2).sub.q --C(O)Z.sub.1, is one in which q is 1 less than n, an integer for 2 to 12 as desired in the final product of Formula I, II, III, or IV, and Z and Z.sub.1 may each independently be a chlorine atom or a bromine atom. An appropriate amino-triaryl-ethylene of the structure 9 is one in which R.sub.6 is R.sub.2 as defined above, or is a suitably protected hydroxy which after deprotection provide compounds of Formula I, II, III, or IV in which R.sub.2 is a hydroxy group; R.sub.9 is R.sub.3 as defined above, or is a suitably protected hydroxy which after deprotection provide compounds of Formula I, II, III, or IV in which R.sub.3 is a hydroxy group, or R.sub.9 is an amino group, a protected amino group, or a group which gives rise to an amino group, such as a nitro group. Appropriate amino-triaryl-ethylenes of the structure 9 are readily prepared by methods analogous to those used to prepare triaryl-ethylene of structure 1 described in U.S. Pat. No. 2,914,563, R. E. Allen et al; U.S. Pat. No. 2,429,556, C. F. Longfellow et al; and Syn. Comm. 17, 1787-1796 (1987), M. I. Al-Hassan.
For example, a slight molar excess of a .omega.-haloalkylacid halide is contacted with a amino-triaryl-ethylene of the structure 9 in a suitable solvent, such as pyridine, dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, or tetrahydrofuran. The reaction is carried out in the presence of a suitable base, such as pyridine, triethylamine, sodium carbonate, or sodium bicarbonate. The reaction may be carried out in the presence of a catalyst, such as 4-dimethylaminopyridine. The reaction is stirred for from 1-72 hours. The production of a compound of Formula I or II in which R.sub.3 is --NH(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A=A.sub.1 or a compound of Formula III or IV in which R.sub.3 is --NH(CH.sub.2).sub.z A.sub.1 wherein z=w and A=A.sub.1 requires the use of a compound of structure 1 in which R.sub.9 is amino and slightly more than two molar equivalents of a .omega.-haloalkylacid halide and gives rise to a compound of structure 10 which is a bis-.omega.-haloalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene. The product can be isolated and purified by techniques well known in the art. For example, the reaction mixture can be concentrated in vacuo to give a residue. The residue can be chromatographed on silica gel using a suitable organic eluent. The material obtained from chromatography can be recrystallized to give a .omega.-haloalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 10.
In Scheme C, step b, a .omega.-haloalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 10 is contacted in an amination reaction with an appropriate amine, HNRR.sub.1, in which R and R.sub.1 are as defined above, morpholine, piperidine, piperazine, 4-methylpiparizine, or pyrrolidine to give .omega.-aminoalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 11.
For example, a .omega.-haloalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 10 is contacted with a large molar excess of an appropriate amine. A large molar excess of amine is used so that the amine also acts as a base to take up the acid liberated in the reaction. The reaction is carried out in a suitable solvent, such as ethanol, methanol, water, ethanol/water mixtures, or methanol/water mixtures. The reaction may be carried out in the presence of a suitable catalyst, such as potassium iodide. The reaction vessel may be sealed to prevent the escape of volatile amines. The reaction mixture is heated to temperatures of from 40.degree. C. to 100.degree. C. For compounds of structure 10 in which R.sub.9 is a .omega.-haloalkylamido group the use of an additional portion of an appropriate amine gives a bis-.omega.-aminoalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene which gives rise to a compound of Formula I or II in which R.sub.3 is --NH(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A=A.sub.1 or a compound of Formula III or IV in which R.sub.3 is --NH(CH.sub.2).sub.z A.sub.1 wherein z=w and A=A.sub.1 The product is isolated from the reaction zone by evaporation or extraction and is purified by chromatography or salt formation and recrystallization to give a .omega.-aminoalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 11.
In Scheme C, step c, a .omega.-aminoalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 11 are chlorinated or brominated to give .omega.-aminoalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 12.
For example, a .omega.-aminoalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 11 is contacted with a molar excess of chlorine, bromine, N-chlorosuccinimide, or N-bromosuccinimide in a solvent, such as chloroform or dichloromethane. The reaction is carried out at temperatures from ambient temperature to the reflux temperature of the solvent. After stirring for from 12-72 hours the product can be isolated and purified by techniques well known in the art. For example, the reaction mixture can be concentrated in vacuo and the product purified by chromatography or by recrystallization to give a .omega.-aminoalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 12.
In Scheme C, step d, a .omega.-aminoalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 12 is contacted with an appropriate reducing agent in a reduction reaction to give a .omega.-aminoalkylamino-triaryl-ethylene of structure 13.
An appropriate reducing agent is one that will reduce the amido group of a .omega.-aminoalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 12 without effecting the other groups present in the compound. The selection and use of such reducing agents is well known and appreciated in the art.
For example, a .omega.-aminoalkylamido-triaryl-ethylene of structure 12 is contacted with a molar excess of an appropriate reducing agent, such as lithium aluminum hydride, borane, or borane complexes. The reaction is carried out in a solvent, such as diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran when the appropriate reducing agent is lithium aluminum hydride, or dichloromethane or chloroform when the appropriate reducing agent is borane. The reaction is carried out at temperatures from ambient temperature to the refluxing temperature of the solvent. For compounds of structure 12 in which R.sub.9 is a .omega.-aminoalkylamido group the use of an additional portion of the appropriate reducing agent gives a bis-.omega.-aminoalkylamino-triaryl-ethylene which gives rise to a compound of Formula I or II in which R.sub.3 is --NH(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A=A.sub.1 or a compound of Formula III or IV in which R.sub.3 is --NH(CH.sub.2).sub.z A.sub.1 wherein z=w and A=A.sub.1. The product can be isolated from the reaction zone by techniques well known in the art, such as quenching, extraction, and evaporation; and may be purified by methods well known in the art, such as chromatography and recrystallization to give a .omega.-aminoalkylamino-triaryl-ethylene of structure 13.
In Scheme C, optional step e, for .omega.-aminoalkylamino-triaryl-ethylene of structure 13 in which R.sub.6 or R.sub.9 are a protected hydroxy group the protecting group is removed in a deprotection step to provide .omega.-aminoalkylamino-triaryl-ethylene of structure 14 in which either, R.sub.2 or R.sub.3, or R.sub.2 and R.sub.3, are hydroxy as desired in the final product of Formula I or Formula II. Additionally, for .omega.-aminoalkylamino-triaryl-ethylene of structure 13 in which R.sub.9 is a protected amino group is deprotected to provide .omega.-aminoalkylamino-triaryl-ethylene of structure 14 in which R.sub.9 is an amino group can be, by sequentially performing the steps of Scheme C, used as an intermediate for the preparation of a compound of Formula I or II in which R.sub.3 is --NH(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p.noteq.n and either A=A.sub.1 or A.noteq.A.sub.1 or in which R.sub.3 is --NH(CH.sub.2).sub.p A.sub.1 wherein p=m and A.noteq.A.sub.1 or a compound of Formula III or IV in which R.sub.3 is --NH(CH.sub.2).sub.z A.sub.1 wherein z.noteq.w and either A=A.sub.1 or A.noteq.A.sub.1 or in which R.sub.3 is --NH(CH.sub.2).sub.z A.sub.1 wherein z=w and A.noteq.A.sub.1. The removal of amine protecting groups utilizing suitable protecting groups such as those described in Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis by T. Greene is well known and appreciated by those skilled in the art.
The selection, use, removal, and sequential removal of suitable hydroxy protecting groups, such as benzyl, p-methoxybenzyl, methyl, t-butyldimethylsilyl, and acetyl, is well known and appreciated in the art and described in Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis by T. Greene.
In Scheme C, step f, the isomers of a .omega.-aminoalkylamino-triaryl-ethylene of structure 13 or 14 are separated to give a (E)-.omega.-aminoalkylamino-triaryl-ethylene and the (Z)-.omega.-aminoalkylamino-triaryl-ethylene.
For example, the isomers of compounds of structure 13 or 14 can be separated and purified by high-performance liquid chromatography or fractional recrystallization of salt to give a (E)-.omega.-aminoalkylamino-triaryl-ethylene and the (Z)-.omega.-aminoalkylamino-triaryl-ethylene.

EXAMPLE 65
Measurement of the Prevention of Bone Loss
Female, Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 200 to 225 grams each (70-75 days of age) are obtained from Harlan Sprague Dawley, Inc. (Indianapolis, Ind.). For each compound, studies are carried out on four groups of animals as follows: Group 1 consists of 5 to 20 ovariectomized rats treated with test compound at typical doses of 0.001 to 10 mg/kg/day; Group 2 consists of 5 to 20 ovariectomized rats treated with vehicle; Group 3 consists of 5 to 20 sham ovariectomized rats (incision made but ovaries not removed) treated with test compound at typical doses of 0.001 to 10 mg/kg/day; Group 4 consists of 5 to 20 sham ovariectomized rats treated with vehicle. All rats are housed individually in suspended wire cages and provided standard rodent laboratory pellets (Purina #5001) and deionized water adlibitum.
The test compound is homogenized in distilled water containing lecithin (10 mg/ml), sodium methylparaben (1.05 mg/ml) and sodium propylparaben (0.23 mg/ml). Compound and vehicle are administered daily for 40 consecutive days by gavage in a volume of 5 ml/kg. Treatment is initiated on the day following ovariectomy or sham ovariectomy. Twenty-four hours after the final administration of test compound (or vehicle) the rats are sacrificed, the hind limbs removed, dissected free of the bulk of soft tissue and then placed in 10% buffered formalin until further processed. Complete ovariectomy is verified at the time of sacrifice and rats with fragments of ovarian tissue are excluded.
After a minimum of one week in formalin, the femurs and tibias are carefully dissected free of each other and remaining soft tissue. The femurs are then air dried for a minimum of 48 hours and radiographed in a Faxitron X-ray cabinet (Hewlett-Packard, McMinnville Oreg.) using Kodak XK-1 film exposed for 9 seconds at a tube voltage of 60 kV. Images of radiographs are captured using a CCD-72 solid-state video camera (Dage-MTI Inc., Michigan City, Ind.) equipped with a 50 mm (1:1.8) Nikon lens and a +1 or combined +4, +2, and +1 close-up lenses depending on the desired magnification. The captured images are digitized with a CFG framegrabber (Imaging Technology Inc., Bedford Mass.) and analyzed using Optimas image analysis software (Bioscan Inc., Edmonds Wash.).
Bone density (i.e., gray value of radiographic images) is measured at the distal femur. Cancellous bone loss is measured at the proximal tibia. Decreased gray value variance reflects the loss of fine structure of bone present in radiographs.
Image analysis measurements are made as follows: For determination of the gray values of femurs, images are precisely orientated on the monitor using screen templates and analysis region (2.30 mm.times.3.34 mm; 11250 pixels) is superimposed over the digitized images at the distal femur at approximately 1.2 mm proximal to the border of the medial and lateral condyles. The gray value of each picture element within the analysis region is then measured and the mean gray value calculated by Optimas image analysis software (BioScan Inc; Edmondes, Wash.). To minimize the effect of random noise on gray value measurements, two images of the analysis region are captured and averaged. The averaged image is then treated with a 3.times.3 smoothing filter to yield the final image for gray value measurements. In addition to mean gray value, gray value variance is also determined at the distal femur using the same analysis region used for determining mean gray value.
To control for variability in gray value measurements potentially arising from the radiographic and imaging procedures, gray values are converted to Density Units using standard curves prepared from gray value measurements collected from a 10-step aluminum wedge radiographed along with the specimens on each film.
After removal from the formalin, tibias are placed in labeled tissue cassettes, decalcified, imbedded in parraffin, cut in 5 micron sagittal sections which are stained with aniline blue (a differential stain for bone). Trabecular bone loss is measured directly from stained sections of the proximal tibia.
For measuring trabecular bone area, tibia section images are precisely orientated on a moniter screen template and a analysis region (1.17 mm.times.1.54 mm; 18240 pixels) centered over the image between the cortico-medullary margins and positioned 1.0 mm from the growth plate at the closest point. Optimas then determines the area of both the analysis region and the trabecular bone within the region (in mm.sup.2) and calculated the percent of the region occupied by trabecular bone.
Statistical comparisons are done using Data Desk Professional software (Odesta Corp., Northbrook Ill.). Comparisons between groups are made using the two-tailed t test for independent means with a pooled estimate of variance. Values for the right and left femurs are averaged for each animal and the combined values used to calculate descriptive statistics and for t tests. Statistical significance is assigned at P.ltoreq.0.05 and P.ltoreq.0.01.
EXAMPLE 66
Measurement of Serum Osteocalcin
For each compound, studies are carried out on four groups a animals as described in Example 65. Anesthetize each animal with CO.sub.2, collect blood by cardiocentesis into clot-activating serum separator tubes. Collect the serum by centrifugation and stored at -20.degree. C.
Serum osteocalcin levels are measured by radioimmunoassay using the method recommended by Biomedical Technologies, Inc. from whom the required reagents are purchased. Serum is diluted 1:20 and either 100 .mu.l of diluted sample or 100 .mu.l rat osteocalcin standard (BT-412) is added to 100 .mu.l of rat osteocalcin primary antibody (goat anti-rat osteocalcin, BT-413), 100 .mu.l normal goat nonimmune serum (NIS) and RIA buffer �122.5 mM NaCl, 25 mM Na.sub.4 EDTA, 10 mM NaH.sub.2 PO.sub.4, pH 7.4, 0.1% Tween 20 and 0.1% bovine serum albumin (RIA grade)! to give a total volume of 500 .mu.l. Incubate at 4.degree. C. overnight on an orbital platform shaker (120 rpm). The second day, �.sup.125 I!-rat osteocalcin (BT-411R) is added in 100 .mu.l (approximately 20,000 cpm) to compete with bound osteocalcin. Tubes are vortexed, then incubate overnight at 4.degree. C. on an orbital shaker. On day three, 1 ml of precipitating second antibody �2% donkey anti-goat lgG (BT-414) in 0.1M sodium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, containing 2.5% polyethylene glycol and 0.05% NaN.sub.3 ! is then added. The samples are mixed and incubated for 2 h at 4.degree. C. on an orbital shaker, followed by sedimentation by centrifugation at 1500.times.g for 15 min at 4.degree. C. The supernatant is carefully discarded and the pellets washed twice by centrifugation with 500 .mu.l distilled water. Supernatant is discarded and the radioactivity associated with the pellet quantitated (2 min) using an LKB gamma counter. Osteocalcin standards run in parallel are used for determination of standard osteocalcin values. Statistical analysis for osteocalcin measurements is carried out using Instat software to do a two-sided T-test.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for the treatment of a patient afflicted with bone tissue loss or osteoporosis comprising the administration thereto of a effective antiosteoporosis amount of a compound of Formula I, II, III, or IV.
The terms "bone tissue loss" as used herein refers to a disease or condition in which bone mass or density is decreased by the loss of both mineral and protein matrix components resulting in bone fragility.
The term "osteoporosis" as used herein refers to a disease or condition in which bone tissue loss is responsible for bone fragility resulting in one or more bone fractures.
As used herein, "an effective antiosteoporosis amount" of a compound of Formula I, II, III, or IV refers to an amount which is effective, upon single or multiple dose administration to the patient, in preventing or decreasing the rate of bone tissue loss in the patient beyond that expected in the absence of such treatment.
Identification of patients in need of treatment for bone tissue loss or osteoporosis is well within the ability and knowledge of one skilled in the art. The methods for identification of patients which are at risk of developing bone tissue loss or osteoporosis are known and appreciated in the medical arts, such as family history of the development of bone tissue loss or osteoporosis and the presence of risk factors associated with the development of bone tissue loss or osteoporosis. A clinician skilled in the art can readily identify, by the use of clinical tests, physical examination and medical/family history, those patients who are at risk of developing bone tissue loss or osteoporosis and thus readily determine if an individual is a patient in need of prophylactic treatment for bone tissue loss or osteoporosis.
An effective antiosteoporosis amount can be readily determined by the attending diagnostician, as one skilled in the art, by the use of known techniques and by observing results obtained under analogous circumstances. In determining the effective antiosteoporosis amount or dose a number of factors are considered by the attending diagnostician, including, but not limited to: the species of mammal; its size, age, and general health; the degree of or involvement or the severity of the disease; the response of the individual patient; the particular compound administered; the mode of administration; the bioavailability characteristics of the preparation administered; the dose regimen selected; the use of concomitant medication; and other relevant circumstances.
An effective antiosteoporosis amount of a compound of Formula I, II, III, or IV is expected to vary from about 0.001 milligram per kilogram of body weight per day (mg/kg/day) to about 100 mg/kg/day.
In a further embodiment, the present invention provides for a method of increasing bone mass and preventing bone tissue loss or osteoporosis in a patient, comprising administering an effective antiosteoporosis amount of a compound of the Formula I, II, III, or IV.
As used herein, the term "patient" refers to a warm-blooded animal, such as a mouse, a rat, a hamster, a rabbit, or a human, which is afflicted with bone tissue loss or osteoporosis or is at risk of developing bone tissue loss or osteoporosis or who is in need of treatment for bone tissue loss or osteoporosis.
In effecting treatment of a patient afflicted with the disease states described above or in effecting prophylactic treatment of a patient who may be afflicted with the disease states as described above, a compound of Formula I, II, III, or IV can be administered in any form or mode which makes the compound bioavailable in effective amounts, including oral and parenteral routes. For example, compounds of Formula I, II, III, or IV can be administered orally, subcutaneously, intramuscularly, intravenously, transdermally, intranasally, rectally, and the like. Oral administration is generally preferred. One skilled in the art of preparing formulations can readily select the proper form and mode of administration depending upon the particular characteristics of the compound selected the disease state to be treated, the stage of the disease, and other relevant circumstances.
The compounds of Formula I, II, III, or IV can be administered alone or in the form of a pharmaceutical composition in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients, the proportion and nature of which are determined by the solubility and chemical properties of the compound selected, the chosen route of administration, and standard pharmaceutical practice. The compounds of the invention, while effective themselves, may be formulated and administered in the form of their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts for purposes of stability, convenience of crystallization, increased solubility and the like.
In another embodiment, the present invention provides compositions comprising a compound of Formula I, II, III, or IV in admixture or otherwise in association with one or more inert carriers. These compositions are useful, for example, as assay standards, as convenient means of making bulk shipments, or as pharmaceutical compositions. An assayable amount of a compound of Formula I, II, III, or IV is an amount which is readily measurable by standard assay procedures and techniques as are well known and appreciated by those skilled in the art. Assayable amounts of a compound of Formula I, II, III, or IV will generally vary from about 0.001% to about 75% of the composition by weight. Inert carriers can be any material which does not degrade or otherwise covalently react with a compound of Formula I, II, III, or IV. Examples of suitable inert carriers are water; aqueous buffers, such as those which are generally useful in High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) analysis; organic solvents, such as acetonitrile, ethyl acetate, hexane and the like; and pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients.
More particularly, the present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising an effective antiosteoporosis amount of a compound of Formula I, II, III, or IV in admixture or otherwise in association with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients.
