Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to novel compounds, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, as well as to the use of the compounds in medicine and for the preparation of a medicament which acts on the human protein kinase C enzyme, and in particular the beta II isoform (pkcβII).

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Protein kinase C (PKC) is a superfamily of lipid-activated Ser/Thr kinases involved in multiple signal transduction pathways. There are thirteen PKC-isoforms that have been identified and are classified according to their regulation by cellular signaling molecules such as diacylglycerol, phospholipids, and calcium. The protein kinase C isozymes, alpha, beta (two splice variants PKCβII and PKCβIII) and gamma, require membrane phospholipids, calcium and diacylglycerolphorbol esters for full activation. The delta, epsilon, eta, and theta forms of PKC are calcium-independent in their mode of activation. The zeta and lambda forms of PKC are independent of both calcium and diacylglycerol and are believed to require only membrane phospholipids for their activation.

The tissue-specific expression and activation of PKC-isoforms suggests that individual PKC-isoforms might be potential therapeutic targets. For diabetes, activation of PKC-beta has been demonstrated in tissues of diabetic animals and has been implicated in the development of microvascular abnormalities related to the hyperglycemic state. Genetic polymorphisms have been identified in the 5′-flanking upstream region of the PKCβ gene in Japanese patients with type II diabetes. This PKCβ genetic variation was associated with a significant increase in the susceptibility to develop diabetic vascular complications and macrovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease.

In a large case-control study at the Joslin Diabetes Center, additional polymorphisms were identified in the PKCβ promoter region that had an association with type I diabetes mellitus (duration<24 years) and a greater risk for development of diabetic nephropathy. Administration of PKCβ inhibitors such as ruboxistaurin mesylate (LY333531, Lilly) in diabetic animal models, was shown to prevent or ameliorate the hemodynamic changes and vascular damage associated with diabetic nephropathy, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, and diabetic retinopathy. Way, K. J. et al, Diabet. Med. 18: 945-959 (2001); Vinik, A., Expert Opin. Investig. Drugs 14: 1547-1559 (2005). Together with additional data from phase II and phase III clinical studies of ruboxistaurin mesylate for treatment of diabetes and diabetic microvascular complications, there is a building body of evidence to support the rationale that PKCβ can function as a molecular target for diabetic complications and for the development of selective-PKCβ inhibitors as potential therapeutic agents.

The compounds of the present invention are protein kinase C beta II inhibitors, and are therefore believed to be useful in the treatment of conditions associated with diabetes mellitius and its complications, cancer, ischemia, inflammation, central nervous system disorders, cardiovascular disease and dermatological disease.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The following reaction Schemes illustrate the preparation of the compounds of the present invention. Unless otherwise indicated, R¹ through R¹² and R^a through R^e in the reaction schemes and the discussion that follows are as defined above.

Detailed Description

Compounds of formulas I-III can be made following the synthetic routes in Scheme 1 and Scheme 2. In Scheme 1 and Scheme 2 and the descriptions following, “BOC”, “Boc” or “boc” means N-tert-butoxycarbonyl, DCM means CH₂Cl₂, DIPEA (also known as Hunig's base) means diisopropyl ethyl amine, DMA means dimethyl amine, “DMF” means dimethyl formamide, “DMSO” means dimethylsulfoxide, Et means-CH₂CH₃, “MTBE” means methyl t-butyl ether, NMP means 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone, TEA means triethyl amine, TFA means trifluoro acetic acid, THF means tetrahydrofuran. While schemes 1 and 2 and the description refer to compound I, schemes 1 and 2 and the description are equally applicable to compounds II and III.

Scheme 1 illustrates the synthesis of the intermediate I(A) used to make compounds of formula I. The amino group of the substituted amino acid I(A) is alkylated to give compound I(B). This can typically be done by treating compound I(A) with an alkylating agent in the presence of a base. An activated electrophilic double bond moiety is a commonly used alkylating reagent. A typical reaction condition of alkylating I(A) with an activated electrophilic double bond moiety is to treat I(A) with the activated double bond moiety in the presence of a strong base. Subsequent aqueous work up affords compound I(B). The amino group of compound I(B) is then protected with a boc group to give compound I(C). This can typically be done by treating compound I(B) with Boc agent in the presence of a base. A typical condition is to treat compound I(B) with (Boc)₂O in the presence of Me₄NOH in MeCN as a solvent. The carboxylic acid group of compound I(C) is then converted into a methyl ester of compound I(D). A typical condition of converting the carboxylic acid group into the methyl ester group is to treat I(C) with methyl iodide in DMF in the presence of a base. Compound I(D) then undergoes an intramolecular aldol condensation to give compound I(E). This can typically be done by treating compound I(D) with a strong base in an aprotic solvent. A typical condition is to treat compound I(D) with t-BuOK in toluene. Subsequent aqueous workup gives compound I(E). Compound I(E) then undergoes a 2+3 cyclization with a hydrazine moiety to form compound I(F). A typical condition of the cyclization is to reflux compound I(E) with hydrazine and acetic acid in EtOH. The free base pyrazole nitrogen of compound I(F) is then acylated to give compound I(G). A typical condition of the acylation is to treat compound I(F) with chloro ethyl carbonate in THF.

More detailed synthetic conditions to compound I(G) of Scheme 1 can be found in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003/0171357 and PCT Publication WO 02/12242, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Scheme 2 illustrates two routes through which compounds of formula I can be made from intermediate I(G). In the first route of Scheme 2, compound I(G) undergoes a nucleophilic reaction with an R^a electrophile moiety. This nucleophilic reaction can be an acylation, alkylation, sulfonylation, reductive amination or one of many other reactions that an amine functionality carries out. A typical acylation reaction condition is to treat compound I(G) with an acylating agent such as R^a—COCl, in the presence of a base such as 2 equivalents of DIPEA, in a solvent such as dichloromethane. The reaction mixture is stirred at between 0° C. and room temperature for 12 hours. Subsequent aqueous workup gives compound II(A). The Boc group on the pyrrole nitrogen of compound II(A) is then removed to give compound II(B). This can typically be done by treating II(A) with a strong acid. A typical reaction condition is to treat compound II(A) with 4N HCl in dioxane and DCM. Subsequent aqueous workup affords compound II(B). The pyrrole NH of compound II(B) is then converted to the chloroformate II(C). This can typically be done using phosgene, triphosgene, or some equivalent. A typical reaction condition is to treat II(B) with 2 equivalents of triphosgene in DCM at 0° C. for four hours. Subsequent mild basic workup with saturated NaHCO₃ and purification gives compound II(C). Compound II(C) is then treated with an R^a nucleophile moiety. The nucleophile can be an alcohol, amine or one of any other functionalities that can react with the electrophile II(C). A typical reaction involves treating II(C) with a nucleophile such as 1.5 equivalents of an alcohol in the presence of 2 equivalents of base such as K₂CO₃ in a solvent such as DME. The reaction is heated to 80° C. for eight hours and the solvent removed. Alternatively, II(C) can be treated with 1.5 equivalents of an amine in the presence of 1 equivalent of base such as DIPEA in a solvent such as THF. Subsequent work up in a protic solvent such as methanol in the presence of base such as TEA followed by purification give compound of formula I.

Alternatively, compound II(B) can then undergoes a nucleophilic reaction with an (COR^b) electrophile to give compound II(D). The nucleophilic reaction carried out for this transformation can be an alkylation, acylation, sulfonylation, reductive amination. An acylation reaction of II(B) to give II(D) is carried out by treating compound II(B) with an acylating reagent in the presence of base. A typical reaction condition is to mix compound II(B) with excess of base, such as DIPEA in DCM and adding the resulting solution to an isocyanate at 0° C. The reaction in stirred for 2 hours and subsequent aqueous workup gives compound II(D). The ethyl ester protecting group on the pyrazole nitrogen of compound II(D) is removed to give compound of formula I. This can typically be done by treating compound II(D) with a base. A typical reaction condition is to reflux compound II(D) in dioxane and DCM in the presence of 2-3 equivalents of LiOH. Subsequent aqueous workup affords compound of formula I.

In the second route of Scheme 2, the Boc group on the pyrrole nitrogen is removed to give compound III(A). The reaction can typically be carried out by treating compound I(G) with a strong acid. A typical reaction condition is to treat compound I(G) with 4N HCl in dioxane and DCM. Subsequent aqueous workup affords compound III(A). Compound III(A) can then undergo a nucleophilic reaction with an (COR^b) electrophile to give compound III(B). Because the —NH₂ group attached to the pyrazole in compound III(A) is less reactive than the pyrrole nitrogen of III(A), the transformation of III(A) to III(B) can be carried out without protecting the pyrazole —NH₂ group of compound III(A). The nucleophilic reaction carried out for this transformation can be an alkylation, acylation, sulfonylation, reductive amination. Relative mild reaction conditions are preferred to achieve the reaction selectivity. An acylation reaction of III(A) to give III(B) is carried out by treating compound III(A) with an acylating reagent in the presence of base. A typical reaction condition is to mix compound III(A) with excess of base, such as DIPEA in DCM and adding the resulting solution to an isocyanate at 0° C. The reaction mixture is held at 0° C. for about two hours and subsequent aqueous workup gives compound III(B).

Compound III(B) then undergoes a nucleophilic reaction with an R^a electrophile moiety. This nucleophilic reaction can be an acylation, alkylation, sulfonylation, reductive amination or one of many other reactions that an amine functionality carries out. A typical acylation reaction condition is to treat compound III(B) with an acylating agent such as R^a—NCO in the presence of a base such as 2 equivalents of DIPEA in a solvent such as dichloromethane for 2 hours. Alternatively, III(B) can be treated with an acylating agent such as R^a—COOR, where R is an activating group such as p-nitrophenyl, in the presence of a base such as 2 equivalents of DIPEA, in a solvent such as 1,2-dichloroethane. Subsequent aqueous workup gives compound III(C). The ethyl ester protecting group on the pyrazole nitrogen of compound III(C) is removed typically with a base to give the free base compound I. A typical reaction condition is to mix compound III(C) with TEA in a protic solvent such as methanol followed by purification to give compound of formula I.

Alternatively, the ethyl ester protecting group on the pyrazole nitrogen of compound III(B) is removed to give the free base compound III(D). This can typically be done by treating compound III(B) with a base. A typical reaction condition is to reflux compound III(B) in dioxane and DCM in the presence of 2-3 equivalents of LiOH. Subsequent aqueous workup affords compound III(D). Compound III(D) then undergoes a nucleophilic reaction with an R^a electrophile moiety. This nucleophilic reaction can be an acylation, alkylation, sulfonylation, reductive amination or one of many other reactions that an amine functionality carries out. A typical acylation reaction condition is to treating compound III(D) with an acylating agent such as R^a—COCl, in the presence of a base such as 2 equivalents of DIPEA in a solvent such as dichloromethane. The reaction mixture is stirred for four hours and subsequent aqueous workup and purification gives compound of formula I.

Any of the above compounds of formula (A) and (B) as defined above can be converted into another analogous compound by standard chemical manipulations. All starting materials, regents, and solvents are commercially available and are known to those of skill in the art unless otherwise stated. These chemical manipulations are known to those skilled in the art and include (a) removal of a protecting group by methods outlined in T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 2nd Ed., John Wiley and Sons, New York, 1991; (b) displacement of a leaving group (halide, mesylate, tosylate, etc) with a primary or secondary amine, thiol or alcohol to form a secondary or tertiary amine, thioether or ether, respectively; (c) treatment of primary and secondary amines with an isocyanate, acid chloride (or other activated carboxylic acid derivative), alkyl/aryl chloroformate or sulfonyl chloride to provide the corresponding urea, amide, carbamate or sulfonamide; (d) reductive amination of a primary or secondary amine using an aldehyde.

The compounds of the present invention may have asymmetric carbon atoms. Diastereomeric mixtures can be separated into their individual diastereomers on the basis of their physical chemical differences by methods known to those skilled in the art, for example, by chromatography or fractional crystallization. Enantiomers can be separated by converting the enantiomeric mixtures into a diastereomric mixture by reaction with an appropriate optically active compound (e.g., alcohol), separating the diastereomers and converting (e.g., hydrolyzing) the individual diastereomers to the corresponding pure enantiomers. All such isomers, including diastereomeric mixtures and pure enantiomers are considered as part of the invention.

The compounds of formula (A) or formula (B) that are basic in nature are capable of forming a wide variety of different salts with various inorganic and organic acids. Although such salts must be pharmaceutically acceptable for administration to animals, it is often desirable in practice to initially isolate the compound of formula (A) or formula (B) from the reaction mixture as a pharmaceutically unacceptable salt and then simply convert the latter back to the free base compound by treatment with an alkaline reagent and subsequently convert the latter free base to a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt. The acid addition salts of the base compounds of this invention are readily prepared by treating the base compound with a substantially equivalent amount of the chosen mineral or organic acid in an aqueous solvent medium or in a suitable organic solvent, such as methanol or ethanol. Upon careful evaporation of the solvent, the desired solid salt is readily obtained. The desired acid salt can also be precipitated from a solution of the free base in an organic solvent by adding to the solution an appropriate mineral or organic acid.

Those compounds of formula (A) or formula (B) that are acidic in nature are capable of forming base salts with various pharmacologically acceptable cations. Examples of such salts include the alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal salts and particularly, the sodium and potassium salts. These salts are all prepared by conventional techniques. The chemical bases which are used as reagents to prepare the pharmaceutically acceptable base salts of this invention are those which form non-toxic base salts with the acidic compounds of formula (A) or formula (B). Such non-toxic base salts include those derived from such pharmacologically acceptable cations as sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, etc. These salts can easily be prepared by treating the corresponding acidic compounds with an aqueous solution containing the desired pharmacologically acceptable cations, and then evaporating the resulting solution to dryness, preferably under reduced pressure. Alternatively, they may also be prepared by mixing lower alkanolic solutions of the acidic compounds and the desired alkali metal alkoxide together, and then evaporating the resulting solution to dryness in the same manner as before. In either case, stoichiometric quantities of reagents are preferably employed in order to ensure completeness of reaction and maximum yields of the desired final product.

The compounds of the present invention are inhibitors of protein kinase C and preferably selectively inhibit beta-1, beta-2 and optionally alpha isozymes of protein kinase C. With respect to the beta-2 isozyme in particular, the compounds of the present invention have Ki values of less than 100 nM.

As an inhibitor of protein kinase C the compounds are useful in the treatment of conditions in which protein kinase C has demonstrated a role in the pathology. Conditions recognized in the art include: diabetes mellitus and its complications, cancer, ischemia, inflammation, central nervous system disorders, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease and dermatological disase.

Protein kinase C has been linked to several different aspects of diabetes. Excessive activity of protein kinase C has been linked to insulin signaling defects and therefore to the insulin resistance seen in Type II diabetes. Karasik, A. et al. J. Biol. Chem. 265: 10226-10231 (1990); Chen, K. S. et al. Trans. Assoc. Am. Physicians 104: 206-212 (1991); Chin, J. E. et al J. Biol. Chem. 268: 6338-6347 (1993). In addition, studies have demonstrated a marked increase in protein kinase C activity in tissues known to be susceptible to diabetic complications when exposed to hyperglycemic conditions. Lee, T. S. et al., J. Clin. Invest. 83: 90-94 (1989); Lee, T. S. et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci USA 86: 5141-5145 (1989); Craven, P. A. and DeRubertis, F. R. J. Clin. Invest. 83: 1667-1675 (1989); Wolf, B. A. J. Clin. Invest. 87: 1643-1648 (1991).

Protein kinase C activity has long been associated with cell growth, tumor promotion and cancer. Rotenberg, S. A. and Weinstein, I. B. Biochem. Mol. Aspects Sel. Cancer 1: 25-73 (1991). Ahamd et al., Molecular Pharmacology: 43, 858-862 (1993). It is known that inhibitors of protein kinase C inhibitors are effective in preventing tumor growth in animals. Meyer, T. et al. Int. J. Cancer 43: 851-856 (1989); Akinagaka, S. et al. Cancer Res. 51: 4888-4892 (1991). More recently, the protein kinase Cβ inhibitor, Enzastauring (LY317615.HCl) was shown to have a direct tumor effect by inducement of apoptosis and suppression of proliferating cultured tumor cell, in particular on human glioblastoma and colon carcinoma. Graff et al, Cancer Res. 16: 7462-7469 (2005). The compounds of the present invention also act as multridrug reversal (MDR) agents making them effective compounds when administered in conjunction with other chemotherapeutic agents.

Protein kinase C inhibitors have been shown to block inflammatory responses such as neutrophil oxidative burst, CD3 down-regulation in T-lymphocytes, and phorbol-induced paw edema. Towemy, B. et al. Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 171: 1087-1092 (199)); Mulqueen, M. J. et al. Agents Actions 37: 85-89 (1992). Accordingly, as inhibitors of PKC, the present compounds are useful in treating inflammation.

Protein kinase C activity plays a central role in the functioning of the central nervous system. Huang, K. P. Trends Neurosci. 12: 425-432 (1989). In addition, protein kinase C inhibitors have been shown to prevent the damage seen in focal and central ischemic brain injury and brain edema. Hara, H. et al. J. Cereb. Blood Flow Metab. 10: 646-653 (1990); Shibata, S. et al. Brain Res. 594: 290-294 (1992). Protein kinase C has also been determined to be implicated in Alzheimer's disease. Shimohama, S. et al. Neurology 43: 1407-1413 (1993). Accordingly, the compounds of the present invention are useful in treating Alzheimer's disease and ischemic brain injury.

Protein kinase C activity also plays an important role in cardiovascular disease. Increased protein kinase C activity in the vasculature has been shown to cause increased vasoconstriction and hypertension. A known protein kinase C inhibitor prevented this increase. Bilder, G. E. et al. J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ter. 252: 526-430 (1990). Because protein kinase C inhibitors demonstrate inhibition of the neutrophil oxidative burst, protein kinase C inhibitors are also useful in treating cardiovascular ischemia and improving cardiac function following ischemia. Muid, R. E. et al. FEBS Lett. 293: 169-172 (1990); Sonoki, H. et al. Kokyu-To Junkan 37: 669-674 (1989). The role of protein kinase C in platelet function has also been investigated and as shown elevated protein kinase C levels being correlated with increased response to agonists. Bastyr III, E. J. and Lu, J. Diabetes 42: (Suppl. 1) 97A (1993). PKC has been implicated in the biochemical pathway in the platelet-activity factor modulation of microvascular permeability. Kobayashi et al., Amer. Pjus. Soc. H1214-H1220 (1994). Potent protein kinase C inhibitors have been demonstrated to affect agonist-induced aggregation in platelets. Toullec, D. et al. J. Biol. Chem. 266: 15771-15781 (1991). Protein kinase C inhibitors also block agonist-induced smooth muscle cell proliferation. Matsumoto, H. and Sasaki, Y. Biochem. Biophys, Res. Commun. 158: 105-109 (1989). Therefore, the present compounds are useful in treating cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis and restenosis.

Abnormal activity of protein kinase C has also been linked to dermatological disorders such as psoriasis. Horn, F. et al. J. Invest. Dermatol. 88: 220-222 (1987); Raynaud, F. and Evain-Brion, D. Br. J. Dermatol. 124: 542-546 (1991). Psoriasis is characterized by abnormal proliferation of keratinocytes. Known protein kinase C inhibitors have been shown to inhibit keratinocyte proliferation in a manner that parallels their potency as PKC inhibitors. Hegemann, L. et al. Aarch. Dermatol. Res. 283: 456-460 (1991); Bollag, W. B. et al. J. Invest. Dermatol. 100: 240-246 (1993). Accordingly, PKC inhibitors are useful in treating psoriasis.

The compounds of the invention are also isozyme-selective. The compounds preferentially inhibit protein kinase C beta-1 and beta-2 isozyme and optionally the alpha isozyme, over the remaining protein kinase C isozymes, i.e., gamma, delta, epsilon, zeta and eta. Accordingly, compounds of the present invention inhibit beta-1 and beta-2 isozymes of protein kinase C, and optionally the alpha isozyme at much lower concentrations with minimal inhibition of the other PKC isozymes.

The compounds of the present invention are particularly useful in treating those disease states in which protein kinase C isozyme beta-1, beta-2, and optionally alpha, are associated. For example, the elevated blood glucose levels found in diabetes leads to an isozyme-specific elevation of the beta-2 isozyme in vascular tissues. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89: 11059-11065 (1992). A diabetes-linked elevation of the beta isozyme in human plateles has been correlated with their altered response to agonists. Bastyr III, E. J. and Lu, J. Diabetes 42: (Suppl 1) 97A (1993). The human vitamin D receptor has been shown to be selectively phosphorylated by protein kinase C beta. This phosphorylation has been linked to alterations in the functioning of the receptor. Hsieh et al, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 88: 931509319 (1991); Hsieh et al. J. Biol. Chem. 268: 15118-15126 (1993). In addition, recent work has shown that the beta-2 isozyme is responsible for erythroleukemia cell proliferation while the alpha isozyme is involved in megakaryocyte differentiation in these same cells. Murray et al., J. Biol. Chem. 268: 15847-15853 (1993).

In addition to the beta-1 and beta-2 isozymes discussed above, the protein kinase

C alpha isozyme has been shown to have potential in the treatment of nephropathy: a PKC-alpha knockout mouse having STZ-induced diabetes showed improved nephropathy. Menne et al, Diabetes 53: 2101-2109 (2005). PKC alpha was implicated in heart contractility, Braz et al. Nature Medicine 10: 248-254 (2004); and also in the regulation of Akt activation and eNOS phosphorylation in endothelial cells. Partovian & Simons, Cellular Signalling 16: 951-957 (2004).

Assay

Protein Kinase C beta 2 (PKCβII) catalyzes the production of ADP from ATP that accompanies the phosphoryl transfer to the PKC Pseudosubstrate peptide (A→S, RFARKGSLRQKNV). This transfer is coupled to the oxidation of β-NADH through the activities of Pyruvate Kinase (PK) and Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH). β-NADH conversion to NAD+ is monitored by the decrease in absorbance at 340 nm (e=6.22 cm⁻mM⁻¹) using a Molecular Devices SPECTRA max PLUS spectrophotometer.

A typical assay was carried out on a 96-well, clear microtiter plate in a Molecular Devices spectrophotometer for 20 minutes at 30° C. in 0.1 mL of assay buffer containing 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 5 nM PKC, 23 units of pyruvate kinase, 33 units of lactate dehydrogenase, 0.15 mM peptide, 0.1 mM ATP, 1 mM DTT, 4 mM PEP, 8 mM MgCl₂, 0.3 mM NADH, 60 mM CaCl₂, 10 mg/mL PS, 50 ng/mL PMA, 7.5% DMSO and from about 10,000 nM to 0.169 nM compound inhibitor. Stock solutions of 3-sn-phosphatidyl-L-serine (PS) and phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) were sonicated for 30 seconds just prior to addition to assay buffer and assays were initiated by the addition of 100 μM ATP.

Steady-state kinetic parameters for the bi-bi kinase reaction were determined at saturating phospho-acceptor peptide substrate concentration (0.15 mM) by fitting initial velocity data to the Michaelis-Menten equation,v=V_max[S]/(K_M+[S])where v is the measured initial velocity, V_max is the maximal enzyme velocity, [S] is the ATP substrate concentration, and K_M is the Michealis constant for ATP. Enzyme turnover values (k_cat) were calculated according to k_cat=V_max[E], where [E] is the total enzyme concentration. Enzyme inhibition constants (apparent K_i values) were determined by fitting initial velocities at variable inhibitor concentrations to a model for ATP competitive inhibition based on the Morrison equation).

Pharmaceutical Compositions/Formulations, Dosaging and Modes of Administration

Methods of preparing various pharmaceutical compositions with a specific amount of active compound are known, or will be apparent, to those skilled in this art. In addition, those of ordinary skill in the art are familiar with formulation and administration techniques. Such topics would be discussed, e.g. in Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmaceutical Basis of Therapeutics, current ed., Pergamon Press; and Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, current ed., Mack Publishing, Co., Easton, Pa. These techniques can be employed in appropriate aspects and embodiments of the methods and compositions described herein. The following examples are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not meant to serve as limitations of the present invention.

The compounds of formula (A) and (B) may be provided in suitable topical, oral and parenteral pharmaceutical formulations for use in the treatment of PKCβII mediated diseases. The compounds of the present invention may be administered orally as tablets or capsules, as oily or aqueous suspensions, lozenges, troches, powders, granules, emulsions, syrups or elixirs. The compositions for oral use may include one or more agents for flavoring, sweetening, coloring and preserving in order to produce pharmaceutically elegant and palatable preparations. Tablets may contain pharmaceutically acceptable excipients as an aid in the manufacture of such tablets. As is conventional in the art these tablets may be coated with a pharmaceutically acceptable enteric coating, such as glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate, to delay disintegration and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract to provide a sustained action over a longer period.

Formulations for oral use may be in the form of hard gelatin capsules wherein the active ingredient is mixed with an inert solid diluent, for example, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate or kaolin. They may also be in the form of soft gelatin capsules wherein the active ingredient is mixed with water or an oil medium, such as peanut oil, liquid paraffin or olive oil.

Aqueous suspensions normally contain active ingredients in admixture with excipients suitable for the manufacture of an aqueous suspension. Such excipients may be a suspending agent, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose, sodium alginate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, gum tragacanth and gum acacia; a dispersing or wetting agent that may be a naturally occurring phosphatide such as lecithin, a condensation product of ethylene oxide and a long chain fatty acid, for example polyoxyethylene stearate, a condensation product of ethylene oxide and a long chain aliphatic alcohol such as heptadecaethylenoxycetanol, a condensation product of ethylene oxide and a partial ester derived from a fatty acid and hexitol such as polyoxyethylene sorbitol monooleate or a fatty acid hexitol anhydrides such as polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate.

The pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of a sterile injectable aqueous or oleagenous suspension. This suspension may be formulated according to know methods using those suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents that have been mentioned above. The sterile injectable preparation may also be formulated as a suspension in a non toxic perenterally-acceptable diluent or solvent, for example as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringers solution and isotonic sodium chloride solution. For this purpose any bland fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition fatty acids such as oleic acid find use in the preparation of injectables.

The compounds of formula (A) and (B) may also be administered in the form of suppositories for rectal administration of the drug. These compositions can be prepared by mixing the drug with a suitable non-irritating excipient that is solid at about 25 Celsius but liquid at rectal temperature and will therefore melt in the rectum to release the drug. Such materials include cocoa butter and other glycerides.

For topical use preparations, for example, creams, ointments, jellies solutions, or suspensions, containing the compounds of the present invention are employed.

The compounds of formula (A) and (B) may also be administered in the form of liposome delivery systems such as small unilamellar vesicles, large unilamellar vesicles and multimellar vesicles. Liposomes can be formed from a variety of phospholipides, such as cholesterol, stearylamine or phosphatidylcholines.

Dosage levels of the compounds of the present invention are of the order of about 0.5 mg/kg body weight to about 100 mg/kg body weight. A preferred dosage rate is between about 30 mg/kg body weight to about 100 mg/kg body weight. It will be understood, however, that the specific dose level for any particular patient will depend upon a number of factors including the activity of the particular compound being administered, the age, body weight, general health, sex, diet, time of administration, route of administration, rate of excretion, drug combination and the severity of the particular disease undergoing therapy. To enhance the therapeutic activity of the present compounds they may be administered concomitantly with other orally active antidiabetic compounds such as the sulfonylureas, for example, tolbutamide and the like.

For administration to the eye, a compound of the present invention is delivered in a pharmaceutically acceptable ophthalmic vehicle such that the compound is maintained in contact with the ocular surface for a sufficient time period to allow the compound to penetrate the cornea and/or sclera and internal regions of the eye, including, for example, the anterior chamber, posterior chamber, vitreous body, aqueous humor, vitreous humor, cornea, iris/ciliary body, lens, choroid/retina and sclera. The pharmaceutically acceptable ophthalmic vehicle may be an ointment, vegetable oil, or an encapsulating material. A compound of the invention may also be injected directly into the vitreous humor or aqueous humor.

Further, a compound may be also be administered by well known, acceptable methods, such as subtenon and/or subconjunctival injections. As is well known in the ophthalmic art, the macula is comprised primarily of retinal cones and is the region of maximum visual acuity in the retina. A Tenon's capsule or Tenon's membrane is disposed on the sclera. A conjunctiva covers a short area of the globe of the eye posterior to the limbus (the bulbar conjunctiva) and folds up (the upper cul-de-sac) or down (the lower cul-de-sac) to cover the inner areas of the upper eyelid and lower eyelid, respectively. The conjunctiva is disposed on top of Tenon's capsule. The sclera and Tenon's capsule define the exterior surface of the globe of the eye. For treatment of age related macular degeneration (ARMD), choroid neovascularization, retinopathies (such as diabetic retinopathy (including macular edema), retinopathy of prematurity), retinitis, uveitis, cystoid macular edema (CME), glaucoma, and other diseases or conditions of the posterior segment of the eye, it is preferable to dispose a depot of a specific quantity of an ophthalmically acceptable pharmaceutically active agent directly on the outer surface of the sclera and below Tenon's capsule. In addition, in cases of ARMD and CME it is most preferable to dispose the depot directly on the outer surface of the sclera, below Tenon's capsule, and generally above the macula.

The compounds may be formulated as a depot preparation. Such long-acting formulations may be administered by implantation (for example, subcutaneously or intramuscularly) intramuscular injection or by the above mentioned subtenon or intravitreal injection. Alternatively, the active ingredient may be in powder form for constitution with a suitable vehicle, e.g., sterile pyrogen-free water, before use.

Within particularly preferred embodiments of the invention, the compounds may be prepared for topical administration in saline (combined with any of the preservatives and antimicrobial agents commonly used in ocular preparations), and administered in eyedrop form. The solution or suspension may be prepared in its pure form and administered several times daily. Alternatively, the present compositions, prepared as described above, may also be administered directly to the cornea.

Within preferred embodiments, the composition is prepared with a muco-adhesive polymer which binds to cornea. Thus, for example, the compounds may be formulated with suitable polymeric or hydrophobic materials (for example, as an emulsion in an acceptable oil) or ion-exchange resins, or as sparingly soluble derivatives, for example, as a sparingly soluble salt.

A pharmaceutical carrier for hydrophobic compounds is a cosolvent system comprising benzyl alcohol, a nonpolar surfactant, a water-miscible organic polymer, and an aqueous phase. The cosolvent system may be a VPD co-solvent system. VPD is a solution of 3% w/v benzyl alcohol, 8% w/v of the nonpolar surfactant polysorbate 80, and 65% w/v polyethylene glycol 300, made up to volume in absolute ethanol. The VPD co-solvent system (VPD:5W) contains VPD diluted 1:1 with a 5% dextrose in water solution. This co-solvent system dissolves hydrophobic compounds well, and itself produces low toxicity upon systemic administration. Naturally, the proportions of a co-solvent system may be varied considerably without destroying its solubility and toxicity characteristics. Furthermore, the identity of the co-solvent components may be varied: for example, other low-toxicity nonpolar surfactants may be used instead of polysorbate 80; the fraction size of polyethylene glycol may be varied; other biocompatible polymers may replace polyethylene glycol, e.g. polyvinyl pyrrolidone; and other sugars or polysaccharides may be substituted for dextrose.

Alternatively, other delivery systems for hydrophobic pharmaceutical compounds may be employed. Liposomes and emulsions are known examples of delivery vehicles or carriers for hydrophobic drugs. Certain organic solvents such as dimethylsulfoxide also may be employed, although usually at the cost of greater toxicity. Additionally, the compounds may be delivered using a sustained-release system, such as semipermeable matrices of solid hydrophobic polymers containing the therapeutic agent. Various sustained-release materials have been established and are known by those skilled in the art. Sustained-release capsules may, depending on their chemical nature, release the compounds for a few weeks up to over 100 days. Depending on the chemical nature and the biological stability of the therapeutic reagent, additional strategies for protein stabilization may be employed.

The pharmaceutical compositions also may comprise suitable solid- or gel-phase carriers or excipients. Examples of such carriers or excipients include calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, sugars, starches, cellulose derivatives, gelatin, and polymers such as polyethylene glycols.

Some of the compounds of the invention may be provided as salts with pharmaceutically compatible counter ions. Pharmaceutically compatible salts may be formed with many acids, including hydrochloric, sulfuric, acetic, lactic, tartaric, malic, succinic, etc. Salts tend to be more soluble in aqueous or other protonic solvents than are the corresponding free-base forms.

The preparation of preferred compounds of the present invention is described in detail in the following examples, but the artisan will recognize that the chemical reactions described may be readily adapted to prepare a number of other compounds of the invention. For example, the synthesis of non-exemplified compounds according to the invention may be successfully performed by modifications apparent to those skilled in the art, e.g., by appropriately protecting interfering groups, by changing to other suitable reagents known in the art, or by making routine modifications of reaction conditions. Alternatively, other reactions disclosed herein or known in the art will be recognized as having applicability for preparing other compounds of the invention.

To each vial was added 10 ml of the aforementioned sodium ethoxide solution followed by 5 ml of anhydrous ethanol. The vials were sealed, and processed in a batchwise fashion using a Biotage Initiator microwave. Each reaction was heated to 160° C. for 10 minutes. After being cooled, the reaction vials were opened (the reaction was shown to be complete by LC-MS), and the contents combined. Each vial was rinsed with 5 ml of ethanol, and 10 ml of water (a solid precipitate deposits at the bottom of the vial), and the washings combined with the original contents of the vial. The ethanol was removed in vacuo, and the aqueous extracted with ethyl acetate (3×150 ml).
