The invention relates to 3-aza-bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-6-carboxylic acid amide derivatives of general formula (I), which are agonists of somatostatin receptor subtype 4 (SSTR4), useful for preventing or treating medical disorders related to SSTR4. In addition, the invention relates to processes for preparing pharmaceutical compositions as well as processes for manufacture of the compounds according to the invention.
Somatostatin, or somatotropin-release inhibitory factor (SRIF), is a cyclic peptide found in humans. It is produced widely in the human body and acts both systemically and locally to inhibit the secretion of various hormones, growth factors and neurotransmitters. The effects of somatostatin are mediated by a family of G protein-coupled receptors, of which five subtypes are known. These subtypes are divided into two subfamilies, the first comprising SSTR2, SSTR3 and SSTR5 and the second SSTR1 and SSTR4.
Somatostatin is involved in the regulation of processes such as for example cellular proliferation, glucose homeostasis, inflammation and pain.
In this aspect somatostatin or other members of the somatostatin peptide family are believed to inhibit nociceptive and inflammatory processes via the SSTR4 pathway.
A number of further therapeutic areas for SSTR4 agonists have been discussed (see e.g. Crider, A; Mini Rev. Med. Chem. 2002, 7, 213 (and references therein); WO 2010/059922 (and references therein).
Selective SSTR4 agonists have been disclosed, for instance, in J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1998, 120, 1368-1373.
WO 2010/059922 provides pyrrolidine carboxamide agonists of SSTR4.
However, there is further need for selective SSTR4 agonists, especially for non-peptidic agonists, which show high stability and other advantageous properties, such as oral efficacy and metabolic stability.
Substituted 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane derivatives have been discussed for the use as inhibitors of the glycine type-1 transporter (WO 2005/037216), for the use as CCR2 (chemokine receptor 2) antagonists (WO 2012/125661) or for the treatment of renal injuries and hypertension (CN 102675290).
It has now been found that compounds of the present invention according to general formula (I) are effective agonists of somatostatin receptor 4 (SSTR4).
Besides the agonistic property toward somatostatin receptor 4, the compounds of the present invention provide advantageous pharmacokinetic properties. For example the compounds of the present invention show high metabolic stability.
Furthermore, the compounds according to the present invention show high selectivity for the SSTR4 receptor with respect to the other subtypes of the same subfamily including the SSTR1 receptor. As a consequence the probability of side effects is reduced.
Accordingly, one aspect of the invention refers to compounds according to formula (I) and salts, hydrates or solvates thereof as agonists of somatostatin receptor 4.
Another aspect of the invention refers to compounds according to formula (I) and salts, hydrates or solvates thereof as selective agonists of SSTR4 over other subtypes of the same family, including selectivity over the other subtype of the same subfamily (SSTR1).
A further aspect of the invention relates to the physiologically acceptable salts of the compounds of general formula (I) according to this invention with inorganic or organic acids.
In a further aspect this invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions, containing at least one compound according to formula (I) or a physiologically acceptable salt, hydrate or solvate thereof, optionally together with one or more inert carriers and/or diluents.
A further aspect of the present invention relates to compounds according to formula (I) or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof or pharmaceutical compositions comprising compounds according to formula (I) or physiologically acceptable salts thereof for the use in the prevention and/or treatment of disorders related to SSTR4.
Another aspect of the invention relates to processes of manufacture of the compounds of the present invention.
A further aspect of the present invention relates to compounds according to formula (I) or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof or pharmaceutical compositions comprising compounds according to formula (I) or physiologically acceptable salts thereof for the use in the prevention and/or treatment of diseases or conditions which can be influenced by activation of SSTR4.

The nitro group of the resulting product is converted in the corresponding primary amine by hydrogenation in the presence of an appropriate catalyst such as Raney Nickel in an appropriate solvent such as methanol or by treatment with Zinc in an appropriate solvent such as methanol in the presence of HCl or or by treatment with Tin (II) chloride in an appropriate solvent such as ethanol at elevated temperatures. Alternatively, the amino ether is prepared reacting an amino alcohol with an halide in the presence of an appropriate base such as sodium hydride in an appropriate solvent such as dioxane. The amino ether is coupled with meso-(1R,5S,6r)-3-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-6-carboxylic acid (commercially available from ABCR or WuXi AppTec, 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 1.24 (t, J=3.2, 1H), 1.38 (s, 9H), 1.97 (t, J=2.5 Hz, 2H), 3.34 (d, 2H), 3.48 (d, J=11.0 Hz, 2H), 12.21 (br, 1H)) in an appropriate solvent such as DMF and in the presence of a coupling agent (e.g. HATU or TBTU) and a base (e.g. TEA or DIPEA). The Boc protecting group is deprotected with hydrochloric acid in an appropriate solvent such as dioxane, methanol or ethyl ether or with trifluoroacetic acid in appropriate solvent such as dichlorometane. Alternatively, Boc cleavage is carried out upon heating at elevated temperatures in appropriate solvents such as water and methanol.

The resulting alcohol is reacted with an halide in the presence of an appropriate base such as sodium hydride in an appropriate solvent such as dioxane. The Boc protecting group is deprotected with hydrochloric acid in an appropriate solvent such as dioxane, methanol or ethyl ether or with trifluoroacetic acid in appropriate solvent such as dichlorometane.

In scheme 3, Hal=halogen, PG=protecting group for an amino function such as outlined in: Peter G. M. Wuts, Theodora W. Greene, Greene's Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, Wiley-Interscience; 4 edition (Oct. 30, 2006).
Preferred protecting groups are tert-butoxycarbonyl- and benzyloxycarbonyl-.
In a first step a carboxylic acid is coupled with ammonium hydroxide in the presence of 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole in an appropriate solvent such as THF. The primary amide functional group is converted into a nitrile functional group using Burgess reagent in an appropriate solvent such as DCM or using trifluoroacetic anhydride and pyridine in an appropriate solvent such as DCM. Alternatively, a halogen-substituted derivative is converted into a nitrile upon treatment with Zinc cyanide in the presence of a Palladium source (e.g. tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0) or 1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino) ferrocenedichloro palladium(II)), a phosphine (e.g. 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene), optionally Zinc, in appropriate solvents such as DMF or N,N-dimethyl-acetamide at elevated temperatures. Nitriles are reacted with Cerium (Ill) chloride and alkyllithiums (see J. Org. Chem. 1992, 57, 4521-452) in an appropriate solvent such as THF or alternatively with Grignard reagents in an appropriate solvent such as toluene at elevated temperatures. The resulting amine is coupled with protected meso-(1R,5S,6r)-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-6-carboxylic acid (meso-(1R,5S,6r)-3-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-6-carboxylic acid is commercially available from Matrix Scientific) in an appropriate solvent such as DCM or DMF and in the presence of a coupling agent (e.g. HATU or TBTU) and a base (e.g. TEA or DIPEA).

The Boc protecting group is deprotected with hydrochloric acid in an appropriate solvent such as dioxane, methanol or ethyl ether or with trifluoroacetic acid in appropriate solvent such as dichlorometane. Alternatively, Boc cleavage is carried out upon heating at elevated temperatures in appropriate solvents such as water and methanol. Alternatively, Boc removal is accomplished by treatment with a silylating agent (e.g. tert-butyldimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate) in the presence of a base (e.g. 2,6-lutidine) in appropriate solvents such as DCM followed by reaction with a fluoride source (e.g. tetrabutylammonium fluoride) in appropriate solvents such as THF.

Alternatively, the halogen-substituted derivative is hydrogenated in the presence of a Palladium in an appropriate solvent such as EtOH. The Boc protecting group is deprotected with hydrochloric acid in an appropriate solvent such as dioxane, methanol or ethyl ether or with trifluoroacetic acid in appropriate solvent such as dichlorometane. Alternatively, Boc cleavage is carried out upon heating at elevated temperatures in appropriate solvents such as water and methanol.
In scheme 6, Hal=halogen

The resulting product is hydrogenated in the presence of Palladium in an appropriate solvent such as MeOH. The resulting amine is coupled with meso-(1R,5S,6r)-3-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-6-carboxylic acid in an appropriate solvent such as DMF and in the presence of a coupling agent (e.g. HATU or TBTU) and a base (e.g. TEA or DIPEA). The Boc protecting group is deprotected with hydrochloric acid in an appropriate solvent such as dioxane, methanol or ethyl ether or with trifluoroacetic acid in appropriate solvent such as dichlorometane. Alternatively, Boc cleavage is carried out upon heating at elevated temperatures in appropriate solvents such as water and methanol.

Preferred protecting groups are tert-butoxycarbonyl-, benzyloxycarbonyl- and 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl-.
In a first step a carboxylic acid is coupled with 2-(aminomethyl)-substituted heterocycle in an appropriate solvent such as THF or DCM and in the presence of a coupling agent (e.g. TBTU or HATU) and a base (e.g. TEA). Condensation is achieved using Burgess reagent in an appropriate solvent such as DCM or using phosphorus oxychloride and DMF at elevated temperatures. The tert-butoxycarbonyl-protecting group is removed with hydrochloric acid in an appropriate solvent such as ethyl ether while the benzyloxycarbonyl- is removed by hydrogenation in the presence of a catalyst (e.g. palladium on carbon) in appropriate solvents such as MeOH and water. The resulting amine is coupled with meso-(1R,5S,6r)-3-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-6-carboxylic acid in an appropriate solvent such as THF or DCM and in the presence of a coupling agent (e.g. HATU) and a base (e.g. TEA). The Boc protecting group is deprotected with hydrochloric acid in an appropriate solvent such as dioxane, methanol or ethyl ether or with trifluoroacetic acid in appropriate solvent such as dichlorometane. Alternatively, Boc cleavage is carried out upon heating at elevated temperatures in appropriate solvents such as water and methanol.
In scheme 8, Hal=halogen; LG=sulfonic ester or halogen
In a first step a ketone is obtained by coupling of a halide with an appropriate tin reagent (e.g. tributyl(1-ethoxyvinyl)tin) in the presence of a palladium source (e.g. tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0)) in an appropriate solvent such as toluene at high temperatures followed by acidic treatment (e.g. aqueous HCl in THF). Alternatively, a ketone is synthesised from an amine by treatment with N.N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal in an appropriate solvent such as toluene at elevated temperatures followed by reaction with chloroacetone and sodium iodide in an appropriate solvent such as DMF at elevated temperatures.

Some degree of routine dose optimization may be required to determine an optimal dosing level and pattern. The active ingredient may be administered from 1 to 6 times a day.
The actual pharmaceutically effective amount or therapeutic dosage will of course depend on factors known by those skilled in the art such as age and weight of the patient, route of administration and severity of disease. In any case the combination will be administered at dosages and in a manner which allows a pharmaceutically effective amount to be delivered based upon patient's unique condition.
Suitable preparations for administering the compounds of formula (I) will be apparent to those with ordinary skill in the art and include for example tablets, pills, capsules, suppositories, lozenges, troches, solutions, syrups, elixirs, sachets, injectables, inhalatives and powders etc. The content of the pharmaceutically active compound(s) should be in the range from 1 to 99 wt.-%, preferably 10 to 90 wt.-%, more preferably 20 to 70 wt.-%, of the composition as a whole.
Suitable tablets may be obtained, for example, by mixing one or more compounds according to formula (I) with known excipients, for example inert diluents, carriers, disintegrants, adjuvants, surfactants, binders and/or lubricants. The tablets may also consist of several layers.
A further aspect of the invention is a pharmaceutical formulation including a compound of formula (I) in admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvant, diluent or carrier.
The compounds according to the present invention can be combined with other treatment options known to be used in the art in connection with a treatment of any of the indications the treatment of which is in the focus of the present invention. Among such treatment options that are considered suitable for combination with the treatment according to the present inventions are:

Combination therapy is also possible with new principles for the treatment of pain e.g. P2X3 antagonists, VR1 antagonists, NK1 and NK2 antagonists, NMDA antagonists, mGluR antagonists and the like.
The combination of compounds is preferably a synergistic combination. Synergy, as described for example by Chou and Talalay, Adv. Enzyme Regul. 22:27-55 (1984), occurs when the effect of the compounds when administered in combination is greater than the additive effect of the compounds when administered alone as a single agent. In general, a synergistic effect is most clearly demonstrated at suboptimal concentrations of the compounds. Synergy can be in terms of lower cytotoxicity, increased pharmacological effect, or some other beneficial effect of the combination compared with the individual components.

cAMP ASSAY
Method Description for cAMP Assay with Human Somatostatin 4 Receptor
The activation of the SSTR4 receptor (Gi coupled) causes an inhibition of intracellular cAMP after stimulation with Forskolin, which can be quantifiable by use of a suitable assay Kit and an adequate plate reader. This technique is used to characterize pharmacological effects of the SSTR4 receptor agonists by use of hSSTR4 expressing H4 cells.
Compounds are dissolved and diluted in DMSO. The final test solution contains 1% DMSO. The cAMP standard (Lance cAMP 384 Kit; PerkinElmer, Cat# AD0264) is prepared in assay buffer (HBSS with 0.1% BSA, 5 mM HEPES, 0.5 M IBMX, pH 7.4) containing 1% DMSO and the cAMP standard curve is included at least on one plate. Cells are centrifuged and suspended in assay buffer (incl. 1:100 diluted Alexa antibody).
For the assay 5 μl of a cell suspension (approximately 5000 cells/well)—incl. Alexa antibody (diluted 1:100) are added into a 384 well MTP microtitre plate excepting one row or column (depending on the plate layout), which is reserved for the standard curve. Then 2 μl of compound sample is added as concentration response curve (e.g. 1 e-5 M to 6e-10 M), usually in triplicates. Each assay contains incubations with vehicle controls instead of compound as controls for non-inhibited cAMP generation (100% CTL; ‘high values’) and incubations with 1 μM Somatosatin as controls for full inhibition and background (0% CTL; ‘low values’). After approximately 10-15 min incubation time 3 μl Forskolin (dissolved in DMSO, final conc. 15 μM) is added. Then the plates are shaken briefly and incubated for 60 min at room temperature. After 60 min 10 μl of the detection mix is added into all wells followed by an additional incubation period of 1 h. The plates are read in a suitable plate reader.
The analysis of the data is based on the “ratio” of the time-resolved fluorescence measurements of donor and acceptor fluorophore (Ex: 320 nm; Em1: 665 nm; Em2: 615 nm; ratio 665/615). From this ratio, cAMP concentrations are calculated from standard curve and the EC50 is estimated by least square curve fit program.
Method description for binding assays with human Somatostatin receptors by use of CHO cell membranes expressing recombinant human SSTR1 or human SSTR2 or human SSTR3 or human SSTR4 or human SSTR5
Receptor binding assays refer to a technique in which labeled receptor ligands are used to detect binding to a receptor. In competition experiments test compounds, which are not labeled, compete with the binding side of a labeled ligand. The displacement of the labeled ligand by the test compound leads to a decreased signal.
For the binding experiments 200 μL of membrane homogenate from one of the following protein amounts is used: hSSTR1 (40 μg/well); hSSTR2 (25 μg/well); hSSTR3 (1.5 μg/well); hSSTR4 (0.5 μg/well); hSSTR5 (25 μg/well). The homogenate is incubated with 0.05 nM of radioligand ([3-125I-Tyr]-Somatostatin-(1-14)) in addition to increasing concentrations of a test compound or vehicle (100% binding) in a total volume of 250 μL using a Hepes buffer (10 mM, EDTA 1 mM, MgCl2 5 mM, pH7.6, BSA 0.5%, Bacitracin 0.003%, DMSO 1%) for 180 min at room temperature. The incubation is terminated by filtration with ice cold NaCl 0.9% through polyethyleneimine treated (0.3%) GF/B glass fiber filters using a cell harvester. The protein-bound radioactivity is measured in a suitable reader. The non-specific binding is defined as radioactivity bound in the presence of 1 μM Somatostatin-14 during the incubation period.
The analysis of the concentration-binding curves is performed by computer-assisted nonlinear least square curve fitting method using the model of one receptor binding site.
The metabolic stability of the compounds according to the invention may be investigated as follows:
The metabolic degradation of the test compound is assayed at 37° C. with pooled human liver microsomes. The final incubation volume of 100 μl per time point contains TRIS buffer pH 7.6 at room temperature (0.1 M), magnesium chloride (5 mM), microsomal protein (1 mg/mL) and the test compound at a final concentration of 1 μM. Following a short preincubation period at 37° C., the reactions are initiated by addition of beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, reduced form (NADPH, 1 mM), and terminated by transferring an aliquot into solvent after different time points. After centrifugation (10000 g, 5 min), an aliquot of the supernatant is assayed by LC-MS/MS for the amount of parent compound. The half-life is determined by the slope of the semi-logarithmic plot of the concentration-time profile.
The agonistic activity of the above described examples is demonstrated by the data in Table 2. The EC50 values were obtained with the aid of the above described cAMP ASSAY.
Selectivity data was obtained with the aid of the above described radioligand binding assays.
Stability data was obtained with the above described experimental procedure.
