The present invention relates to diazaspiro compounds, processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in therapy.
Both the initial stages of a disease as well as the long-term tissue remodeling and muscle hypotrophy depend on recruitment of leukocytes to the inflammatory lesion. Leukocyte recruitment involves the migration of leukocytes into the diseased tissue from the blood vessel and their activation, which leads to progression of disease. The mechanism underlying this recruitment, chemotaxis, is similar both in classically defined immune mediated pathological conditions (i.e. allergic and autoimmune diseases) as well as others (i.e. atherosclerosis and Parkinson's disease). Thus, intervention of leukocyte recruitment to the inflamed target tissue constitutes an attractive novel therapeutic principle.
The chemokines are a large family (>50 members) of small 8- to 15-kDa secreted, heparin-binding polypeptides with the primary function of controlling trafficking and activation of leukocytes. They are distinct from classical chemoattractants (i.e. bacterial derived N-formyl peptides, complement components, lipid molecules and platelet activating factor) on the basis of shared structural similarities. All chemokines have four conserved cysteines residues that form disulfide bonds, which are critical for the 3-D structure. The chemokines are further subclassed according to the position of the first two cysteines. The two major subclasses are the CC-chemokines, that have the cysteines adjacent, and the CXC-cytokines, that have the cysteines separated by one amino acid. The two other families, the C and the CX3C chemokines, are much smaller and only comprise one or a few members.
The C-X-C chemokines include several potent chemoattractants and activators of neutrophils such as interleukin-8 (IL-8) and neutrophil-activating peptide 2 (NAP-2).
The C-C chemokines include potent chemoattractants of monocytes and lymphocytes, such as human monocyte chemotactic proteins 1-3 (MCP-1, MCP-2 and MCP-3), RANTES (Regulated on Activation, Normal T Expressed and Secreted), eotaxin and the macrophage inflammatory proteins 1α and 1β (MIP-1α and MIP-1β) and CCL1.
Studies have demonstrated that the actions of the chemokines are mediated by subfamilies of G protein-coupled receptors, among which are the receptors designated CCR1, CCR2, CCR2A, CCR2B, CCR3, CCR4, CCR5, CCR6, CCR7, CCR8, CCR9, CCR10, CXCR1, CXCR2, CXCR3 and CXCR4.
The accumulation of immune cells at a site of allergic inflammation occurs within 6-48 hours after allergen challenge and is a hallmark of allergic diseases. Studies have shown that antigen-specific CD4+ T cells are detected in lung tissue of asthmatic patients after exposure to the allergen. Although infiltrating T cells are relatively few in number compared to eosinophils, compelling evidence has demonstrated essential roles for T cells in orchestrating the inflammatory process in human asthma. A close correlation exists in humans between the level of TH2 cytokines produced by T cells, serum level of IgE and prevalence of asthma.
The human CCR8 receptor has been shown to interact with the human chemokine CCL1 (I-309). This chemokine is a potent eosinophil, T-, dentritic- and endothelial cell chemoattractant. The receptor has been shown to be transiently upregulated on polarized TH2 cells after optimal TCR cross linkage in the presence of costimulatory signals (i.e. CD28). The coordinated upregulation of CCR8 on activated T cells after antigen challenge indicates that it contributes to redistribution of the activated T cells to the inflammatory foci within the inflamed tissue expressing CCL1. Indeed, in vivo models of allergic airway inflammation using mice deficient in CCR8 expression have shown a profound block in recruitment of effector T cells to the inflamed lung tissue and production of TH2 cytokines. Moreover, T cells infiltrating the human airway subepithelium during allergen challenge have been shown to be CCR8 positive. Importantly, the number of CCR8 positive cells migrating into the airway submucosa following allergen challenge has been shown to correlate with decreases in FEV1.
Considering the significant role CCR8 plays in TH2 cell chemotaxis, and the importance of TH2 cells in allergic conditions such as asthma, CCR8 represents a good target for drug development in the treatment of respiratory diseases such as asthma.

The present inventors have now identified a novel set of compounds which act as CCR8 receptor antagonists.
In accordance with the present invention, there is therefore provided a compound of general formula

In the context of the present specification, an alkyl substituent group or an alkyl moiety in a substituent group may be linear or branched. Furthermore, an alkenyl substituent group or an alkenyl moiety in a substituent group may be linear or branched.
When any chemical moiety or group in formula (I) is described as being optionally substituted, it will be appreciated that the moiety or group may be either unsubstituted or substituted by one or more of the specified substituents. A moiety or group where the only substituent present is hydrogen is considered unsubstituted.
It will be appreciated that throughout the specification, the number and nature of substituents on rings in the compounds of the invention will be selected so as to avoid sterically undesirable combinations.

When A represents a 9- or 10-membered bicyclic ring system, the two rings in the bicycle are fused together. By fused together is meant that two adjacent atoms in the ring system are shared by both rings. Preferably, the bicyclic ring system is a 9- or 10-membered bicyclic heteroaromatic ring system. It should be noted that one or both of the rings in the bicycle may be aromatic. Furthermore, the one or more heteroatoms in the bicycle may be present in an aromatic part of the bicycle or alternatively may be present in a non-aromatic part of the bicycle.
In the definition of R7, it should be noted that the 6-membered saturated or unsaturated heterocyclic ring may have alicyclic or aromatic properties. An unsaturated ring may be partially or fully unsaturated.

Process (a) may be carried out using standard coupling reactions that are well know in the art. A suitable leaving group LG is, for example OH or chlorine. The coupling reaction may typically be carried out using activating reagents such as N-[(1H-1,2,3-benzotriazol-1-yloxy)(dimethylamino)methylene]-N-methylmethanaminium hexafluorophosphate (HBTU), N-[(dimethylamino)(3H-[1,2,3]triazolo[4,5-b]pyridin-3-yloxy)methylene]-N-methylmethanaminium hexafluorophosphate (HATU), or (benzotriazol-1-yloxy)tripyrrolidinophosphonium hexafluorophosphate (PYBOP). Typically, the reaction is carried out in the presence of a suitable base (e.g. triethylamine) and an organic solvent (e.g. dichloromethane) at a suitable temperature (e.g. room temperature).
Process (b) may be carried out using standard reductive amination procedures which are well known in the art. Typically, the reaction is carried out in the presence of a reducing agent, typically sodium triacetoxyborohydride [NaBH(OAc)3].

CCL1 SPA Binding Assay
Membranes from CHO-K1 cells transfected with human recombinant chemokine CCR8 receptor (ES-136-M) were purchased from Euroscreen. Membrane preparations are stored at −70 C in 7.5 mM Tris-Cl pH 7.5, 12.5 mM MgCl2, 0.3 mM EDTA, 1 mM EGTA, 250 mM sucrose until used.
The CCR8 membranes (50.6 mg/ml) were preincubated with Wheat Germ Agglutinin SPA beads (4.05 mg/ml) in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES, 1 mM CaCl2×2H2O, 5 mM MgCl2×6H2O, 75 mM NaCl, 0.1% BSA) at pH=7.4 for 2 hours on ice. A 10-point dose-response curve (final concentrations 50 μM, 16.7 μM, 5.6 μM, 1.9 μM, 0.62 μM, 0.21 μM, 0.069 μM, 0.023 μM) was prepared by diluting compounds by serial dilution 1:3 in DMSO. In the screening plate (Polystyrene NBS plates, Costar Corning 3604) 1 μl from the DMSO solutions of compounds was transferred into each well. 1 μl of DMSO was added to the blank control wells and 1 μl unlabeled CCL1 (300 nM) was added to background control wells. 50 μl of the SPA bead-membrane mixture was added into each well. Finally, 50 μl (30 μM) 125I CCL1 (2000 Ci/mM) was added to each well. Plates were then incubated at RT with shaking (700 rpm) for 90 minutes followed by 30 minutes at RT without shaking. The plate was read in a Wallac MicroBeta counter for 2 minutes/well.
All the compounds of the examples (with the exception of examples 162 and 164 for which IC50 values have not been determined) have an IC50 of less than 2 μM. The results obtained for a representative selection of the compounds of the Examples are shown in Table 1 below.
