Chronic pain is a major contributor to disability and is the cause of an untold amount of suffering. The successful treatment of severe and chronic pain is a primary goal of the physician with opioid analgesics being preferred drugs.
Until recently, there was evidence of three major classes of opioid receptors in the central nervous system (CNS), with each class having subtype receptors. These receptor classes were designated as μ, δ and κ. As opiates had a high affinity to these receptors while not being endogenous to the body, research followed in order to identify and isolate the endogenous ligands to these receptors. These ligands were identified as enkephalins, endorphins and dynorphins.
Recent experimentation has led to the identification of a cDNA encoding an opioid receptor-like (ORL1) receptor with a high degree of homology to the known receptor classes. This newly discovered receptor was classified as an opioid receptor based only on structural grounds, as the receptor did not exhibit pharmacological homology. It was initially demonstrated that non-selective ligands having a high affinity for μ, δ and κ receptors had low affinity for the ORL1. This characteristic, along with the fact that an endogenous ligand had not yet been discovered, led to the term “orphan receptor”.
Subsequent research led to the isolation and structure of the endogenous ligand of the ORL1 receptor. This ligand is a seventeen amino acid peptide structurally similar to members of the opioid peptide family.
The discovery of the ORL1 receptor presents an opportunity in drug discovery for novel compounds which can be administered for pain management or other syndromes modulated by this receptor.
All documents cited herein, including the foregoing, are incorporated by reference in their entireties for all purposes.
It is accordingly an object of certain embodiments of the present invention to provide new compounds which exhibit affinity for the ORL1 receptor.
It is an object of certain embodiments of the present invention to provide new compounds which exhibit affinity for the ORL1 receptor and one or more of the μ, δ or κ receptors.
It is an object of certain embodiments of the present invention to provide new compounds for treating a patient suffering from chronic or acute pain by administering a compound having affinity for the ORL1 receptor.
It is an object of certain embodiments of the present invention to provide new compounds which have agonist activity at the μ, δ and κ receptors which is greater than compounds currently available e.g. morphine.
It is an object of certain embodiments of the present invention to provide methods of treating chronic and acute pain by administering compounds which have agonist activity at the μ, δ and κ receptors which is greater than compounds currently available.
It is an object of certain embodiments of the present invention to provide methods of treating chronic and acute pain by administering non-opioid compounds which have agonist activity at the μ, δ and κ receptors and which produce less side effects than compounds currently available.
It is an object of certain embodiments of the present invention to provide compounds useful as analgesics, anti-inflammatories, diuretics, anesthetics and neuroprotective agents, anti-hypertensives, anti-anxioltics; agents for appetite control; hearing regulators; anti-tussives, anti-asthmatics, modulators of locomotor activity, modulators of learning and memory, regulators of neurotransmitter and hormone release, kidney function modulators, anti-depressants, agents to treat memory loss due to Alzheimer's disease or other dementias, anti-epileptics, anti-convulsants, agents to treat withdrawal from alcohol and drugs of addiction, agents to control water balance, agents to control sodium excretion and agents to control arterial blood pressure disorders and methods for administering said compounds.
The compounds of the present invention are useful for modulating a pharmacodynamic response from one or more opioid receptors (ORL-1, μ, δ and κ) centrally and/or peripherally. The response can be attributed to the compound stimulating (agonist) or inhibiting (antagonist) the one or more receptors. Certain compounds can stimulate one receptor (e.g., a μ agonist) and inhibit a different receptor (e.g., an ORL-1 antagonist).

Nociceptin affinity at the ORL1 receptor for preferred compounds was obtained using the following assay:
Membranes from recombinant HEK-293 cells expressing the human opioid receptor-like receptor (ORL-1) (Receptor Biology) were prepared by lysing cells in ice-cold hypotonic buffer (2.5 mM MgCl2, 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.4) (10 ml/10 cm dish) followed by homogenization with a tissue grinder/teflon pestle. Membranes were collected by centrifugation at 30,000×g for 15 min at 4° C. and pellets resuspended in hypotonic buffer to a final concentration of 1-3 mg/ml. Protein concentrations were determined using the BioRad protein assay reagent with bovine serum albumen as standard. Aliquots of the ORL-1 receptor membranes were stored at −80° C.
Functional SGTPgS binding assays were conducted as follows. ORL-1 membrane solution was prepared by sequentially adding final concentrations of 0.066 mg/ml ORL-1 membrane protein, 10 mg/ml saponin, 3 mM GDP and 0.20 nM [35S]GTPgS to binding buffer (100 mM NaCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.4) on ice. The prepared membrane solution (190 ml/well) was transferred to 96-shallow well polypropylene plates containing 10 ml of 20× concentrated stock solutions of agonist prepared in DMSO. Plates were incubated for 30 min at room temperature with shaking. Reactions were terminated by rapid filtration onto 96-well Unifilter GF/B filter plates (Packard) using a 96-well tissue harvester (Brandel) and followed by three filtration washes with 200 ml ice-cold binding buffer (10 mM NaH2PO4, 10 mM Na2HPO4, pH 7.4). Filter plates were subsequently dried at 50° C. for 2-3 hours. Fifty ml/well scintillation cocktail (BetaScint; Wallac) was added and plates were counted in a Packard Top-Count for 1 min/well.
Data was analyzed using the curve fitting functions in GraphPad PRISMÔ, V. 3.0 and the results are set forth in table 1 below:
Procedure:
To a solution of 1 (5 g, 25.1 mmol) in 125 mL of MeOH at room temperature was added NaBH4 (1.9 g, 50.2 mmol) portionwise and the reaction mixture was stirred for 2 hr. The mixture was evaporated to dryness and sat. NH4Cl solution was added. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (5×). The combined organic extracts were dried over K2CO3, filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure to give the crude product 2 as a white solid. This material was used directly in the next step without further purification.
1H-NMR (CDCl3): d 1.40-1.55 (m, 11H), 1.85 (m, 2H), 3.00 (m, 2H), 3.85 (m, 3H).
To a solution of 2 (5.05 g, 25.1 mmol) in 50 mL of THF at 0° C. was added Et3N (5.25 mL, 37.6 mmol) and CH3SO2Cl (2.14 mL, 27.6 mmol). The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 2 hr. The resulting mixture was diluted with ether, washed with sat. NH4Cl solution (3×), dried over MgSO4 and evaporated to give the crude product as a solid. Trituration with hexane gave 3 as an off-white solid (6.30 g, 90% for two steps).
1H-NMR (CDCl3): d 1.45 (s, 9H), 1.80 (m, 2H), 1.95 (m, 2H), 3.02 (s, 3H), 3.30 (m, 2H), 3.72 (m, 2H), 4.90 (m, 1H).
To a solution of compound 4 (5.00 g, 34.0 mmol) in 500 mL of xylene was added NaH (1.63 g, 40.8 mmol) at room temperature. After the addition, the mixture was heated to reflux for 2 hr. After cooling to room temperature 3 (11.39 g, 40.8 mmol) was added in one portion. The reaction mixture was heated to gentle reflux and maintained for 20 hr. The cooled solution was partitioned between brine and EtOAc. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer extracted with EtOAc (1×). The combined organic extracts were dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated to give the crude 5 as an oil, which was used directly to the next step without purification.
A mixture of concentrated HCl in EtOAc (150 ml, 1:10) was added to compound 5 (11.2 g, 34.0 mmol) at room temperature. The reaction was, monitored by TLC. When the reaction was complete, water and EtOAc were added, the layers separated and the aqueous layer was washed with EtOAc (1×). The organic washings were discarded and the aqueous layer was basified with K2CO3 and extracted with EtOAc (3×). The organic extracts were dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated to give the crude product that was purified by column chromatography to give 6 (4.30 g, 55% for 2 steps) as a clear glass.

General Procedure For Alkylation:
To a solution of the amine (1 eq) and triethylamine (1 eq) in dimethylformamide, was added 1 eq of alkyl bromide or chloride in one portion. The mixture was stirred and heated at 80° C. over night. TLC indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction was quenched by the addition of water followed by 1 N NaOH to pH 10. The mixture was extracted 2× with Et2O. The combined organic extracts were dried over potassium carbonate and the solvent evaporated, followed by chromatography-to give the pure product.
General Procedure For Reductive Amination:
To a mixture of ketone or aldehyde (1 eq), amine (1 eq), and acetic acid (1 eq) in methanol, was added sodium cyanoborohydride (1.4 eq) in one portion. The mixture was stirred over night at room temperature. TLC indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction was quenched by the addition of water followed by 1 N NaOH to pH 10. The mixture was extracted 2× with Et2O. The combined organic extracts were dried over potassium carbonate and the solvent evaporated, followed by chromatography to give the pure product.
The following compounds were prepared by attaching the tail groups using the general procedures described:

Nociceptin affinity at the ORL1 receptor for preferred compounds was obtained using the following assay:
Membranes from recombinant HEK-293 cells expressing the human opioid receptor-like receptor (ORL-1) (Receptor Biology) were prepared by lysing cells in ice-cold hypotonic buffer (2.5 mM MgCl2, 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.4) (10 ml/10 cm dish) followed by homogenization with a tissue grinder/teflon pestle. Membranes were collected by centrifugation at 30,000×g for 15 min at 4° C. and pellets resuspended in hypotonic buffer to a final concentration of 1-3 mg/ml. Protein concentrations were determined using the BioRad protein assay reagent with bovine serum albumen as standard. Aliquots of the ORL-1 receptor membranes were stored at −80° C.
Functional SGTPgS binding assays were conducted as follows. ORL-1 membrane solution was prepared by sequentially adding final concentrations of 0.066 mg/ml ORL-1 membrane protein, 10 mg/ml saponin, 3 mM GDP and 0.20 nM [35S]GTPgS to binding buffer (100 mM NaCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 20 nM HEPES, pH 7.4) on ice. The prepared membrane solution (190 ml/well) was transferred to 96-shallow well polypropylene plates containing 10 ml of 20× concentrated stock solutions of agonist prepared in DMSO. Plates were incubated for 30 min at room temperature with shaking. Reactions were terminated by rapid filtration onto 96-well Unifilter GF/B filter plates (Packard) using a 96-well tissue harvester (Brandel) and followed by three filtration washes with 200 ml ice-cold binding buffer (10 mM NaH2PO4, 10 mM Na2HPO4, pH 7.4). Filter plates were subsequently dried at 50° C. for 2-3 hours. Fifty ml/well scintillation cocktail (BetaScint; Wallac) was added and plates were counted in a Packard Top-Count for 1 min/well.
Data was analyzed using the curve fitting functions in GraphPad PRISMO, v. 3.0 and the results are set forth in table 2 below:
