Commercial Utility
[0156] The excellent activity of compounds of the formula I and their salts against Helicobacter bacteria allows them to be used in human medicine as active principles for treating diseases due to Helicobacter bacteria.
[0157] The invention therefore further provides a method of treating mammals, especially humans, who have contracted diseases due to Helicobacter bacteria. The method comprises administering to the individual affected a therapeutically active and pharmacologically tolerated amount of one or more compounds of the formula I and/or their pharmacologically acceptable salts.
[0158] The invention further provides the compounds of the formula I and their pharmacologically acceptable salts for use in the treatment of diseases due to Helicobacter bacteria.
[0159] The invention likewise embraces the use of compounds of the formula I and their pharmacologically acceptable salts in the preparation of medicaments used for controlling diseases due to Helicobacter bacteria.
[0160] The invention additionally provides medicaments for controlling Helicobacter bacteria, comprising one or more compounds of the general formula I and/or their pharmacologically acceptable salts.
[0161] Among the Helicobacter strains against which the compounds of the formula I are found effective, mention may be made in particular of the strain Helicobacter pylori, the compounds of the invention being distinguished in particular by high selectivity for Helicobacter microbes.
[0162] The medicaments are prepared by conventional methods familiar to the skilled worker. As medicaments, the pharmacologically active compounds of the formula I and their salts (i.e., active principles) are used either as they are or, preferably, in combination with suitable pharmaceutical auxiliaries in the form, for example, of plain tablets, coated tablets, capsules, emulsions, suspensions, gels or solutions, the active principle content being advantageously between 0.1 and 95%.
[0163] The choice of suitable auxiliaries for the desired medicament formulations is familiar to the skilled worker on the basis of his or her art knowledge. Besides solvents, gel formers, tableting auxiliaries, and other excipients for the active principle, it is possible, for example, to use antioxidants, dispersants, emulsifiers, defoamers, flavor corrigents, preservatives, solubilizers, colorants or permeation promoters and complexing agents (e.g., cyclodextrins).
[0164] The active principles may be administered, for example, parenterally (e.g., intravenously) or, in particular, orally.
[0165] In human medicine, in general, the active principles are administered in a daily dose of from about 0.1 to 50, preferably from 1 to 30, mg/kg of body weight, where appropriate in the form of two or more, preferably 2 to 3, individual doses, in particular a single dose daily, in order to achieve the desired result.
[0166] The compounds of the invention may also be administered in a fixed or free combination together with a substance which neutralizes gastric acid and/or inhibits gastric acid secretion and/or with a substance suitable for conventional control of Helicobacter pylori.
[0167] Examples of gastric acid neutralizers include sodium bicarbonate or other antacids (such as aluminum hydroxide, magnesium aluminate or magaldrate). Examples of gastric acid secretion inhibitors that may be mentioned include H2 blockers (e.g., cimetidine, ranitidine), H+/K+ ATPase inhibitors (e.g., lansoprazole, omeprazole, esomeprazole, rabeprazole or, in particular, pantoprazole) and what are known as reversible H+/K+ ATPase inhibitors (compounds as disclosed, for example, in international patent applications WO 00/11000, WO 00/10999, WO 99/55706, WO 99/55705 or WO 98/37080, and structurally similar compounds).

Determination of the Inhibition of Growth In Vitro in Liquid Culture
[0170] The principle of the technique is based on the detection of the multiplication of, for example, Helicobacter pylori in liquid culture using BHI/6% FCS medium. The method ensures linear fluorescence increase in the range from 3×106 to 3×108 cells.
[0171] The bacterial culture was distributed with an initial density of 1-3×106 microbes/ml in a 96-well MTP in 100 μaliquots. The test substances in a concentration of 109 to 105 mol/l in a final concentration of 1% DMSO were added to these minicultures. These MTPs were then incubated under microaerobic conditions (Anaerokult, Merck) and with shaking at 37° C. for 24 hours. Following the 24-hour incubation, the minicultures were transferred to filter MTPs and washed twice with isotonic buffer (filtered off with suction, taken up, shaken) and finally were taken up in double-distilled water and shaken, and an aliquot was transferred to a new MTP. This aliquot was admixed with the fluorescent dye NanoOrange (Molecular Probes) in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Development of protein detection took place at 90° C. in a pressure-secured sandwich technique. After the plates had cooled, the fluorescence was measured on a plate reader at 549 nm. These data were used to construct concentration/effect curves from which the parameters of the substances, the IC50 values, were determined. This calculation was made using origin, sigmoidal curve adaptation by means of the ‘logistic’ algorithm. The compounds investigated in this technique gave the IC50 values (the numbers of the compounds indicated correspond to the numbers of examples in the description) set out in table B below.

Determination of the Helicobacter pylori Eradication Rate In Vivo
[0172] Experimental Setup:
[0173] Gerbils were infected on days 1, 3, and 5 with a suspension containing 108-109 Helicobacter pylori bacteria per animal. Following infection, the gerbils had a recovery phase of 4 weeks within which the bacteria were able to colonize the stomach. Beginning on day 36, the gerbils were treated on four successive days—three times daily at 07.30, 11.30, and 15.00 hours—with a placebo or the test substance, using a tube. Four weeks after the last treatment, the gerbils were sacrificed using CO2. A tissue sample of the antrum was introduced into the urease test solution and incubated at 37° C. for 24 hours. Changes in color of the solution from yellow to violet, which resulted from the increase in pH caused by the formation of NH3 from the urease, were detected. The eradication rate was calculated as the percentage of animals whose stomach tissue sample gave a negative urease test.
[0174] Conditions Under which the Animals were Kept:
[0175] Groups of 5-10 gerbils per cage (type IV Macrolon cage) were kept at an ambient temperature of 23±2° C. and a relative humidity of 50±10%. They were fed ad libitum with NAFAG feed No. 9439 for rats and mice (NAFAG AG, CH-2900, Gossau, Switzerland) and had free access to mains water during the experiment.
