Until recently, theories regarding the pathophysiology of migraine have been dominated since 1938 by the work of Graham and Wolff. Arch. Neurol. Psychiatry, 39:737-63, 1938. They proposed that the cause of migraine headache was vasodilatation of extracranial vessels. This view was supported by knowledge that ergot alkaloids and sumatriptan, a hydrophilic 5-HT1 agonist which does not cross the blood-brain barrier, induce contraction of cephalic vascular smooth muscle and are effective in the treatment of migraine. Humphrey, et al., Ann. NY Acad. Sci., 600:587-600, 1990. Recent work by Moskowitz has shown, however, that the occurrence of migraine headaches is independent of changes in vessel diameter. Cephalalgia, 12:5-7, 1992.
Moskowitz has proposed that currently unknown triggers for pain stimulate trigeminal ganglia that innervate vasculature within the cephalic tissue, giving rise to release of vasoactive neuropeptides from axons on the vasculature. These released neuropeptides then activate a series of events, a consequence of which is pain. This neurogenic inflammation is blocked by sumatriptan and ergot alkaloids by mechanisms involving 5-HT receptors, believed to be closely related to the 5-HT1D subtype, located on the trigeminovascular fibers. Neurology, 43(suppl. 3):S16-S20 1993. Sumatriptan, in fact, has high affinity for the 5-HT1B and 5-HT1D receptors, Ki=10.3 nM and 5.1 nM, respectively, which activity may be indicative of vasoconstrictive activity. Sumatriptan and similar compounds previously advanced for the treatment of migraine had tended to be selected on the basis of this vasoconstrictive activity under the premises of the prior art models for migraine.
Serotonin (5-HT) exhibits diverse physiological activity mediated by at least seven receptor classes, the most heterogeneous of which appears to be 5-HT1. A human gene which expresses one of these 5-HT1 receptor subtypes, named 5-HT1F, was isolated by Kao and coworkers. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 90:408-412, 1993. This 5-HT1F receptor exhibits a pharmacological profile distinct from any serotonergic receptor yet described. It was found that sumatriptan, in addition to the above mentioned strong affinities for the 5-HT1B and 5-HT1D receptors, also has affinity for the 5-HT1F receptor subtype, with a Ki of about 23 nM. This suggests a possible role for the 5-HT1F receptor in migraine.
Various 5-HT1F receptor agonists have subsequently been developed which have shown relative selectivity for the 5-HT1F receptor subclass and it has been shown that such selectivity generally reduces the vasoconstrictive activity characteristic of other compounds advanced as potential agents for the treatment of migraine and associated disorders.
Included among these 5-HT1F receptor agonists are compounds disclosed in the following:
Continued research has now surprisingly yielded a new and unexpected class of novel selective 5-HT1F agonists having distinct chemical and receptor binding properties, which inhibit peptide extravasation, while avoiding significant vasoconstrictive activity, and are therefore useful for the treatment of migraine and other 5-HT1F receptor associated disorders.

Where specific stereochemistries are identified in this application, the Cahn-Prelog-Ingold designations of (R)- and (S)- and the cis and trans designation of relative stereochemistry are used to refer to specific isomers and relative stereochemistry. In addition, arbitrary designations of “cis isomer 1”, “cis isomer 2”, “trans isomer 1”, or “trans isomer 2” are used to distinguish resolved stereoisomers of compounds having two chiral centers with known cis or trans configurations, but for which the absolute stereochemistry has not been determined (i.e. it is unknown whether the specific compound is the (R,R) or (S,S) cis isomer, or the (R,S) or (S,R) trans isomer). While all enantiomers, diastereomers, and mixtures thereof, are contemplated within the present invention, preferred embodiments are single enantiomers and single diastereomers.

The compounds of the present invention may be synthesized through a condensation of the desired 1,3-dihalobenzene or 2,6-dihalopyridine with the appropriate N-protected or N-substituted 4-hydroxypiperidine or piperidine-4-thiol, followed by amine substitution of the remaining phenyl or pyridinyl halogen and amide formation with an appropriate R1-acylchloride (see Schemes 1-4). Suitable reaction conditions for the steps of these schemes are well known in the art and appropriate substitutions of solvents and co-reagents are within the skill of the art. Likewise, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that synthetic intermediates may by isolated and/or purified by various well known techniques as needed or desired, and that frequently, it will be possible to use various intermediates directly in subsequent synthetic steps with little or no purification. All substituents, unless otherwise indicated, are as previously defined, and all reagents are well known and appreciated in the art. (Piperidinyloxy)phenyl compounds of the present invention can be synthesized according to Scheme 1:
where R1-7 are as defined above; and R8 is C1-C3 alkyl optionally substituted with one to three fluoro, C3-C6 cycloalkyl-C1-C3 alkyl, or a group of formula II
or an amino protecting group.
Typically the appropriate N-substitued or N-protected piperidin-4-ol in a suitable solvent, such as DMF, DMSO, NMP, and the like, is added to a suspension of sodium hydride, and heated, as for example, between about ambient temperature to about 100° C., preferably at about 50° C., typically for about 30-90 minutes, say about 45 minutes. 1-bromo-3-fluorobenzene is then added and allowed to react for several hours to overnight at about ambient to 100° C., preferably at about 65° C. The reaction is quenched, as for example by the addition of water or other suitable means. The 3-bromophenoxy-4-piperidine intermediate may be worked up by common procedures, as for example, solvent removal, extraction procedures, and/or further purification by chromatography, etc.
Next, the bromophenoxypiperidine intermediate is aminated at the benzo 3-position, as for example, by reacting the intermediate with (±)BINAP, Pd2(dba)3, benzhydrylideneamine, and sodium tertbutoxide in a suitable solvent, such as toluene or the like, under an inert atmosphere for about 1 to about 3 hrs., say about 2 hours, at about 50° C. to 100® C., say about 80° C. The resulting 3-(piperidin-4-yloxy)-phenylamine intermediate may then be isolated and purified by common procedures such as, but not limited to, solvent removal, extraction, and/or chromatography, etc.
Compounds wherein R3 is hydrogen can then be synthesized by condensation with the desired R1-acylchloride. Typically, an appropriate 3-(piperidin-4-yloxy)-phenylamine intermediate is reacted with an appropriate R1-acylchloride, in an appropriate solvent, such as dioxane, pyridine, DMF, or the like, at between about ambient temperature and about 100° C., preferably between about 50° C. and about 100° C., until the reaction is complete, as for example, between about 1 hr. and about 4 hrs., say about 2 hrs. The reaction is then quenched by addition of an acid and the final product purified by normal work-up procedures.
Alternatively, the R1 moiety may be added by amide bond formation by reacting the 3-(piperidin-4-yloxy)-phenylamine intermediate with the appropriate R1-carboxylic acid. Typically, the desired amine intermediate is reacted with the appropriate R1-carboxylic acid, with HATU and collidine, in an appropriate solvent, such as dioxane, pyridine, DMF, or the like, at between about ambient temperature and about 100° C., preferably at about room temperature, until the reaction is complete, as for example, between about 1 and about 4 hrs., preferably about 2 hrs. The reaction is then quenched by addition of an acid, as for example, acetic acid in methanol, and the final product purified by normal work-up procedures.
(Piperidinylsulfanyl)phenyl compounds of the present invention may be synthesized in the analogous manner to the methods for synthesizing (piperidinyloxy)phenyl compounds described above by substituting the appropriate piperidinethiol intermediate for the piperidinol intermediate.
(Piperidinyloxy)pyridine compounds of the present invention may be prepared via Scheme 2, utilizing either 2,6-dichloropyridine or 2,6-dibromopyridine.
where the substituents are as defined above.
The appropriate isomer/racemate of the piperidinol intermediate is reacted with NaH in a suitable solvent, as for example, NMP or the like, at from about ambient temperature to about 100° C. for about 2-3 hours, or until the release of hydrogen gas is no longer observable. 2,6-Dibromopyridine is added and the mixture reacted at about ambient temperature to about 100° C. for about 1-5 hr. The reaction mixture is then cooled to about ambient temperature and quenched with saturated aqueous NaCl aq. The product can be worked up with well known procedures, such as solvent removal, extraction, silica gel purification, chromatography, etc.
The 2-bromo-6-(piperidin-4-yloxy)pyridine can be aminated by various known methods, including reaction with with an excess of 7 M NH3, with an appropriate catalyst, such as copper (I) oxide, or the like, in a suitable solvent, such as ethyleneglycol, NMP, and the like, preferably under pressure, as for example in an autoclave. The 2-amino-6-(piperidin-4-yloxy)pyridine intermediate may then be isolated and purified by known methods, as for example, solvent removal, extraction, and/or chromatography, etc.
These two initial steps can alternatively be run substituting 2,6-dichloropyridine for 2,6-dibromopyridine.
The final condensation step with an appropriate R1 acylchloride or R1 carboxylic acid is as for the 3-aminophenoxypiperidine analogs described above.
(Piperidinylsulfanyl)pyridinyl compounds of the present invention can be made by the analogous procedures, utilizing the corresponding piperidinethiol intermediate in place of the piperidinol intermediate.
(Piperidinylsulfanyl)phenyl compounds of the present invention may also be synthesized according to Scheme 3:
where the substituents are as defined above.
Typically, 3-amino-benzenethiol is reacted with an appropriate N-substituted or N-protected-4-chloropiperidine intermediate and cesium carbonate in a suitable solvent, such as DMF, DMSO, or the like, at between about ambient to about 100° C., say about 80° C., for several hours, as for example, about 12 to about 24 hrs., say about 18 hrs. The 3-(piperidin-4-ylsulfanyl)phenylamine intermediate may then be isolated and purified by well known procedures such as filtration, extraction, solvent removal, chromatography, etc.
The 3-(piperidin-4-ylsulfanyl)phenylamine intermediate may then be used in a condensation reaction with an appropriate R1-acylchloride or R1-carboxylic acid as with the corresponding 3-(piperidin-4-yloxy)phenylamine intermediates described above.
If, in any of the above syntheses, the piperidinyl nitrogen is protected by an amino protecting group, this group is removed after the condensation reaction with the R1-acylchloride or R1-carboxylic acid. The piperidinyl nitrogen can then remain as a secondary amine for compounds of the present invention wherein R2 is hydrogen, or it may be further alkylated by known procedures to provide compounds of the present invention wherein R2 is C1-C3 alkyl, C3-C6 cycloalkyl-C1-C3 alkyl, or a group of formula II
A typical alkylation reaction would react the secondary amine with an appropriate aldehyde, glacial acetic acid or trifluoroacetic acid, and sodium cyanoborohydride, in an appropriate solvent, such as methanol, wherein an appropriate aldehyde is one which will react with the secondary amine to provide the desired R2 substiuent, as by way of illustration, N-methylpyrazol-4-ylethanal for compounds having N-methylpyrazol-4-ylethyl as the R2 substituent.
(Piperidinyloxy)phenyl compounds of the present invention wherein R3 is C1-C3 alkyl can be synthesized by reacting the 3-(piperidin-4-yloxy/thio)phenylamine or 3-(piperidin-4-yloxy/thio)pyridinylamine intermediate with the appropriate aldehyde or ketone, (i.e. formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, propanal, or propan-2-one, for compounds wherein R3 is methyl, ethyl, propyl, or isopropyl, respectively, in an appropriate solvent, as for example, methanol, for about 2 to about 4 hrs., say 3 hrs. Sodium borohydride is then added and the mixture reacted for several hours to overnight. The reaction is then quenched with acid and the resulting N-alkyl-3-(piperidin-4-yloxy/thio)phenylamine or N-alkyl-3-(piperidin-4-yloxy/thio)pyridinylamine intermediate may be isolated and purified by common methods, as for example, solvent removal, filtration, extraction, chromatography, etc.
The N-alkyl-3-(piperidin-4-yloxy/thio)phenylamine or N-alkyl-3-(piperidin-4-yloxy/thio)pyridinylamine intermediate is then used in a condensation reaction with an appropriate R1-acylchloride, as described above, to provide the product compound.
(Piperidinyloxy)pyridinyl compounds where R3 is other than hydrogen can be made by running the amination step as described above, with the 3-bromo-(piperidin-4-yloxy)pyridinyl intermediate and an excess of the appropriate alkyl amine, rather than ammonia (e.g. methylamine, ethylamine, propylamine, or isopropylamine to produce compounds having an R3 substituent of methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, and isopropyl respectively). The 2-alkylamino-6-(piperidin-4-yloxy)pyridine intermediate may then be used in the final condensation step with an appropriate R1 acylchloride as described above.
Compounds wherein R4a, R4b, and/or R4c if present, is other than hydrogen can be synthesized utilizing the corresponding R4a, R4b, and/or R4c-substituted 1-bromo-3-fluorobenzene or 2,6-dibromo/chloropyridine in the initial condensation reaction with the 4-piperidinol intermediate as described above.
Alternatively, compounds wherein R4a, R4b, or R4c if present, is other than hydrogen can also be synthesized utilizing the corresponding R4a, R4b, or R4c substituted 1-fluoro-3-nitrobenzene or 2-fluoro-6-nitropyridine in the respective initial condensation reactions with the 4-piperidinol intermediate. The resulting R4-substituted-1-(piperidin-4yloxy/thio)-3-nitrobenzene or R4-substituted-1-(piperidin-4yloxy/thio)-6-nitropyridine intermediate is then reduced to the desired R4-substituted-3-(piperidin-4yloxy/thio)-3-phenylamine or R4-substituted-1-(piperidin-4yloxy/thio)-6-nitropyridine intermediate, as for example, by refluxing the nitro intermediate with iron dust and hydrochloric acid in a suitable solvent, such as methanol or the like, for about 24-36 hr. The resulting amine intermediate may then be isolated and purified by common methods, as for example, solvent removal, filtration, extraction, chromatography, etc.
This amine intermediate is then used in a condensation reaction with an appropriate R1-acylchloride, as described above, to provide the product compound.
Compounds of the present invention wherein R5 and R6 are other than hydrogen can be synthesized by the above schemes utilizing the corresponding substituted piperidinyl starting reagents, which can be synthesized according to Scheme 4 as follows:
where the substituents are as defined above.
Typically, a racemic N—R8-2-R5-piperidin-4-one may be resolved into its enantiomers by chiral HPLC, as for example on a Chiralcel OD® or Chiralcel OJ® column (Daicel Chemical Industries, Ltd., Osaka Japan), followed by reduction of the ketone to provide the trans and cis diasteriomers of the selected 4-piperidinone enantiomer. The diasteriomers may then be further resolved by well known work-up procedures as desired, and as is well appreciated in the art. The analogous reactions can be run using the N—R8-3-R5 substituted-piperidin-4-one starting reagents to produce N—R8-3-R5-piperidin-4-ol intermediates.
Various methods for reduction of the ketone to a hydroxy group are well known in the art and the ordinarily skilled chemist will appreciate the advantages and limitation of the various methods with regard to selection of R2 or the N-protecting group desired. Typical reduction reactions include treatment with sodium borohydride, H2 with a Pd/C catalyst, or with lithium aluminum hydride, in an appropriate solvent, such as absolute ethanol, tetrahydrofuran, and the like, will reduce the ketone into trans- and cis-hydroxy isomers.
Alternatively, a degree of stereoselectivity may be achieved in the reduction reaction by treatment with chirally selective reducing agents such as lithium tri-tert-butoxyaluminum hydride, lithium tri-sec-butylborohydride (e.g. L-Selectride™, Sigma Chemical Corp.), diisobutylaluminum hydride, and the like. The stereoisomer enriched products can then be further purified by other known methods.
Various methods may be used to resolve stereochemically enriched/pure intermediates including chromatographic separation on chiral separation media and stereoselective crystallization.
Compounds wherein R6 is other than hydrogen can be made from the appropriately substituted piperidin-4-ol intermediate in the analogous manner, as for example reduction of 2,2,(R2/N-protected)- or 2,3,(R2/N-protected)-trisubstituted-piperidin-4-one to the corresponding racemic 4-hydroxypiperidine intermediates.
The following Preparations and Examples are provided to better elucidate the practice of the present invention and should not be interpreted in any way so as to limit the scope thereof. Note that when the “isomer 1” and “isomer 2” nomenclature is used, the absolute stereochemistry is not known. In those situations, the stereochemistry shown in the structure is to accurately indicate the resolution of one cis or one trans configurations, but not the accurate “R” or “S” absolute stereochemistry of the chiral centers for that resolved isomer; the absolute configurations may be the opposite of that shown. Hence, one resolved isomer is arbitrarily designated “isomer 1”, leaving the opposite isomer to be designated “isomer 2”. Where the absolute stereochemistry is known, the appropriate R/S nomenclature is used.

The compounds of this invention are useful for increasing activation of the 5-HT1F receptor. An increase in the activation of the 5-HT1F is useful for treating a variety of disorders which have been linked to decreased neurotransmission of serotonin in mammals, e.g., migraine headaches. See U.S. Pat. No. 5,708,008 demonstrating the nexus between activation of the 5-HT1F receptor and migraine. To demonstrate the use of the compounds of the present invention in the treatment of migraine, their ability to bind to the 5-HT1F receptor subtype was determined. The ability of the compounds of this invention to bind to the 5-HT1F receptor subtype was measured essentially as described in N. Adbam, et al., Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (USA), 90:408-412, 1993.
Membrane Preparation:
Membranes were prepared from transfected Ltk-cells (transfected with the human 5-HT1F receptor sequence) which were grown to 100% confluency. The cells were washed twice with phosphate-buffered saline, scraped from the culture dishes into 5 mL of ice-cold phosphate-buffered saline, and centrifuged at 200×g for 5 minutes at 4° C. The pellet was resuspended in 2.5 mL of ice-cold Tris buffer (20 mM Tris HCl, pH 7.4 at 23° C., 5 mM EDTA) and homogenized with a Wheaton tissue grinder. The lysate was subsequently centrifuged at 200×g for 5 minutes at 4° C. to pellet large fragments which were discarded. The supernatant was collected and centrifuged at 40,000×g for 20 minutes at 4° C. The resulting pellet was washed once in ice-cold Tris wash buffer and resuspended in a final buffer containing 50 mM Tris HCl and 0.5 mM EDTA, pH 7.4 at 23° C. Membrane preparations were kept on ice and utilized within two hours for the radioligand binding assays. Protein concentrations were determined by the method of Bradford. Anal. Biochem., 72:248-254, 1976.
Radioligand Binding:
[3H] 5-HT binding was performed using slight modifications of the 5-HT1D assay conditions reported by Herrick-Davis and Titeler (J. Neurochem., 50:1624-1631, 1988) with the omission of masking ligands. Radioligand binding studies were achieved at 37° C. in a total volume of 250 μL of buffer (50 mM Tris, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.2 mM EDTA, 10 μM pargyline, 0.1% ascorbate, pH 7.4 at 37° C.) in 96 well microtiter plates. Saturation studies were conducted using [3H] 5-HT at 12 different concentrations ranging from 0.5 nM to 100 nM. Displacement studies were performed using 4.5-5.5 nM [3H] 5-HT. The binding profile of drugs in competition experiments was accomplished using 6-12 concentrations of compound. Incubation times were 30 minutes for both saturation and displacement studies based upon initial investigations which determined equilibrium binding conditions. Nonspecific binding was defined in the presence of 10 μM 5-HT. Binding was initiated by the addition of 50 μL membrane homogenates (10-20 μg). The reaction was terminated by rapid filtration through presoaked (0.5% poylethyleneimine) filters using 48R Brandel Cell Harvester (Gaithersburg, Md.). Subsequently, filters were washed for 5 seconds with ice cold buffer (50 mM Tris HCl, pH=7.4 at 4° C.), dried and placed into vials containing 2.5 mL Readi-Safe (Beckman, Fullerton, Calif.) and radioactivity was measured using a Beckman LS 5000TA liquid scintillation counter. The efficiency of counting of [3H] 5-HT averaged between 45-50%. Binding data was analyzed by computer-assisted nonlinear regression analysis (Accufit and Accucomp, Lunden Software, Chagrin Falls, Ohio). IC50 values were converted to Ki values using the Cheng-Prusoff equation. Biochem. Pharmacol., 22:3099-3108 (1973). All experiments were performed in triplicate. Representative compounds of the present invention were found to have high affinity for the 5-HT1F receptor as measured by the procedure described above, as for example Ki's of less than or equal to about 300 nM. Preferred compounds of the present invention have Ki's of less than or equal to about 100 nM. Yet more preferred compounds have a Ki of less than or equal to 50 nM. The exemplified compounds had Ki's of less than or equal 150 nM.
Measurement of cAMP Formation
As was reported by R. L. Weinshank, et al., WO93/14201, the 5-HT1F receptor is functionally coupled to a G-protein as measured by the ability of serotonin and serotonergic drugs to inhibit forskolin stimulated cAMP production in NIH3T3 cells transfected with the 5-HT1F receptor. Adenylate cyclase activity was determined using standard techniques. A maximal effect is achieved by serotonin. An Emax is determined by dividing the inhibition of a test compound by the maximal effect and determining a percent inhibition. N. Adham, et al., supra; R. L. Weinshank, et al., Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (USA), 89:3630-3634, 1992; and the references cited therein.
Human 5-HT1F receptor transfected NIH3T3 cells (estimated Bmax from one point competition studies=488 fmol/mg of protein) were incubated in DMEM, 5 mM theophylline, 10 mM HEPES (4-[2-hydroxyethyl]-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid) and 10 μM pargyline for 20 minutes at 37° C., 5% CO2. Drug dose-effect curves were then conducted by adding 6 different final concentrations of drug, followed immediately by the addition of forskolin (10 μM). Subsequently, the cells were incubated for an additional 10 minutes at 37° C., 5% CO2. The medium was aspirated and the reaction was stopped by the addition of 100 mM HCl. To demonstrate competitive antagonism, a dose-response curve for 5-HT was measured in parallel, using a fixed dose of methiothepin (0.32 μM). The plates were stored at 4° C. for 15 minutes and then centrifuged for 5 minutes at 500×g to pellet cellular debris, and the supernatant was aliquoted and stored at −20° C. before assessment of cAMP formation by radioimmunoassay (cAMP radioimmunoassay kit; Advanced Magnetics, Cambridge, Mass.). Radioactivity was quantified using a Packard COBRA Auto Gamma counter, equipped with data reduction software. Representative compounds of the present invention were tested and found to be agonists of the 5-HT1F receptor in the cAMP assay described above.
Protein Extravasation Assay
The following test was performed to determine the ability of compounds of the present invention to inhibit protein extravasation, which test is also a functional assay for, the neuronal mechanism of migraine.
Harlan Sprague-Dawley rats (225-325 g) or guinea pigs from Charles River Laboratories (225-325 g) were anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital intraperitoneally (65 mg/kg or 45 mg/kg respectively) and placed in a stereotaxic frame (David Kopf Instruments) with the incisor bar set at −3.5 mm for rats or −4.0 mm for guinea pigs. Following a midline sagital scalp incision, two pairs of bilateral holes were drilled through the skull (6 mm posterially, 2.0 and 4.0 mm laterally in rats; 4 mm posteriorly and 3.2 and 5.2 mm laterally in guinea pigs, all coordinates referenced to bregma). Pairs of stainless steel stimulating electrodes, insulated except at the ends (Rhodes Medical Systems, Inc.), were lowered through the holes in both hemispheres to a depth of 9 mm (rats) or 10.5 mm (guinea pigs) from dura.
The femoral vein was exposed and a dose of the test compound was injected intravenously (1 mL/kg). Approximately 7 minutes later, a 50 mg/kg dose of Evans Blue, a fluorescent dye, was also injected intravenously. The Evans Blue complexed with proteins in the blood and functioned as a marker for protein extravasation. Exactly 10 minutes post-injection of the test compound, the left trigeminal ganglion was stimulated for 3 minutes at a current intensity of 1.0 mA (5 Hz, 4 msec duration) with a Model 273 potentiostat/galvanostat (EG&G Princeton Applied Research).
Fifteen minutes following stimulation, the animals were killed and exsanguinated with 20 mL of saline. The top of the skull was removed to facilitate the collection of the dural membranes. The membrane samples were removed from both hemispheres, rinsed with water, and spread flat on microscopic slides. Once dried, the tissues were coverslipped with a 70% glycerol/water solution.
A fluorescence microscope (Zeiss) equipped with a grating monchromator and a spectrophotometer was used to quantify the amount of Evans Blue dye in each sample. An excitation wavelength of approximately 535 nm was utilized and the emission intensity at 600 nm was determined. The microscope was equipped with a motorized stage and also interfaced with a personal computer. This facilitated the computer-controlled movement of the stage with fluorescence measurements at 25 points (500 μm steps) on each dural sample. The mean and standard deviation of the measurements were determined by the computer.
The extravasation induced by the electrical stimulation of the trigeminal ganglion was an ipsilateral effect (i.e. occurs only on the side of the dura in which the trigeminal ganglion was stimulated). This allows the other (unstimulated) half of the dura to be used as a control. The ratio of the amount of extravasation in the dura from the stimulated side compared to the unstimulated side was calculated. Saline controls yielded a ratio of approximately 2.0 in rats and 1.8 in guinea pigs. In contrast, a compound which effectively prevented the extravasation in the dura from the stimulated side would have a ratio of approximately 1.0. A dose-response curve was generated and the dose that inhibited the extravasation by 50% (ID50) was approximated. Representative compounds of the present invention were assayed by the above procedure and were found to significantly inhibit neuronal protein extravasation_Compounds of the present invention were efficatious in the neurogenic plasma protein extravasation migraine model.
Rabbit Saphenous Vein Contraction
Representative compounds of the present invention were tested in a rabbit saphenous vein contraction assay to measure their ability to mediate vasoconstriction.
Male New Zealand White rabbits (3-6 lbs) (Hazleton, Kalamazoo, Mich.) were sacrificed by a lethal dose of sodium pentobarbital (325 mg) injected into the ear vein. Tissues were dissected free of connective tissue, cannulated in situ with polyethylene tubing (PE50, outside diameter=0.97 mm) and placed in petri dishes containing modified Kreb's solution (described infra). The tips of two 30-gauge stainless steel hypodermic needles bent into an L-shape were slipped into the polyetylene tubing. Vessels were gently pushed from the cannula onto the needles. The needles were then separated so that the lower one was attached with thread to a stationary glass rod and the upper one was tied with thread to the transducer.
Tissues were mounted in organ baths containing 10 mL of modified Krebs' solution of the following composition: 118.2 mMol NaCl, 4.6 mMol KCl, 1.6 mMol CaCl2.H2O, 1.2 mMol KH2PO4, 1.2 mMol MgSO4, 10.0 mMol dextrose and 24.8 mMol NaHCO3. Tissue bath solutions were maintained at 37° C. and aerated with 95% O2 and 5% CO2. An initial optimum resting force of 1 gm was applied to the saphenous vein. Isometric contractions were recorded as changes in grams of force on a Beckman Dynograph with Statham UC-3 transducers and microscale accessory attachments. Tissues were allowed to equilibrate 1 to 2 hours before exposure to drugs. Cumulative agonist concentration-response curves were generated in tissues and no tissue was used to generate more than two agonist concentration-response curves. Results are expressed as a mean EC50 and the maximal response expressed as a percentage of the maximal tissue contraction response to 67 mM KCl administered initially to each tissue.
This vasoconstriction assay measures two important parameters, saphenous vein contraction (EC50) and maximal contraction as a % maximal KCl response (% man KCl). The saphenous vein contraction (EC50) is a measure of the dose required to contract tissue to 50% of the maximal response that the specific compound is capable of mediating. The maximal response that the saphenous vein is capable of exhibiting is measured after administration of a high concentration (67 mM) of KCl. The % maximal KCl contraction is the ratio of the maximal response that the specific compound is capable of mediating divided by the maximal response that the tissue can produce upon stimulation with KCl. For purposes of this application, a compound may be considered to not have significant vasoconstrictive activity if it produces a maximal contraction of less than or equal to 5% of the contraction produced by the 67 mM KCl positive control at compound concentrations of up to 100 μM.
Representative compounds of the present invention were tested with the above saphenous vein assay and found to not be significantly vasoconstrictive. All compound of the present invention had a % max KCl less than or equal to 10% in this assay. This contrasts greatly with prior art compounds for the treatment of migraine targeting the neural vasoconstrictive model for migraine treatment, which compounds were selected on the basis of strong vasoconstrictive activity, as for example, sumatriptan, which has an EC50 of 0.66 mM and a % max KCl of 64.20 in this assay.
Selectivity for the 5-HT1F Receptor
Compounds of the prevent invention are relatively selective for the 5-HT1F receptor, particularly in comparison to other 5-HT receptor subtypes, specifically other receptors in the 5-HT1 subclass, as for example, but without limitation, the 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1D, and 5-HT1E receptor subtypes. Affinity for these other receptor subtypes can readily be determined by slight modification of the above described radioligand receptor binding assays using cells transfected with the desired receptor subtype in place of cells transfected with the 5-HT1F receptor subtype. The binding affinities of representative compounds of the present invention were determined by such assays and were found to be selective for the 5-HT1F receptor; that is the affinity of the compounds for the 5-HT1F receptor was on the whole, higher than for other receptor subtypes, particular for the 5-HT1B and 5-HT1D receptor subtypes.
Specificity Index
The specificity of compounds of the present invention for 5-HT1F mediated inhibition of neuronal protein extravasation versus vasoconstrictive activity can be expressed with a Specificity Index, which is the ratio of vasoconstriction to efficacy in inhibiting neuronal protein extravasation:
The Corrected Vasoconstriction takes into consideration the maximal contraction relative to KCl for each individual compound, and is defined as the vasoconstriction EC50 value divided by the %max KCl.
For example, sumatriptan has a corrected vasoconstriction EC50 of 1.03×10−8 M (0.66 mM EC50+64.20%maxKCl) and an extravasation inhibition ID50 of 2.6×10-8 mMol/Kg, giving a Specificity Index of 0.40.
Thus the procedure for determining the Specificity Index of any given compound is as follows:
1. Measure the affinity of the compound for the 5-HT1F receptor using the radioligand binding method described above;
2. Once affinity for the 5-HT1F receptor is established, determine whether the compound is an agonist, partial agonist or antagonist of the 5-HT1F receptor by its response in the above described cAMP assay;
3. If the compound is shown to be an agonist or partial agonist with an Emax of at least about 50%, measure efficacy of the compound in inhibition of protein extravasation and saphenous vein contraction using the above described assays; and
4. Calculate the Specificity Index as shown above.
While compounds with a Specificity Index greater than 1 are useful for the methods and uses of the present invention, larger values for the Specificity Index are preferred. A larger Specificity Index indicates greater specificity for efficacy in inhibition of neuronal protein extravasation over vasoconstriction. Thus, preferred compounds have a Specificity Index of greater than or equal to 10 (at least 10), preferably greater than or equal to 100 (at least 100). More preferred compounds have a Specificity Index of greater than or equal to 1000 (at least 1000), and yet more preferred compounds have Specificity Indexes greater than or equal to 5000 (at least 5000).
Pharmaceutical Compositions
The type of pharmaceutical composition used for the administration of the compounds employed in the methods of the present invention may be dictated by the particular compounds selected, the type of pharmacokinetic profile desired from the route of administration, and the state of the patient.
Pharmaceutical compositions amenable to oral, sublingual, nasal or injectable administration are prepared in a manner well known in the pharmaceutical art and comprise at least one active compound. See, e.g., R
In general, a pharmaceutical composition of the present invention includes an active ingredient (a compound of formula I) and is usually mixed with an excipient, diluted by an excipient or enclosed within such a carrier which can be in the form of a capsule, sachet, paper or other container. When the excipient serves as a diluent, it can be a solid, semi-solid, or liquid material, which acts as a vehicle, carrier or medium for the active ingredient. Thus, the pharmaceutical compositions can be in the form of tablets, pills, powders, lozenges, sachets, cachets, elixirs, suspensions, emulsions, solutions, syrups, aerosols (as a solid or in a liquid medium), ointments containing for example up to 10% by weight of the active compound, soft and bard gelatin capsules, gels, suppositories, sterile injectable solutions, and sterile packaged powders.
In preparing a pharmaceutical composition, it may be necessary to mill the active compound to provide the appropriate particle size prior to combining with the other ingredients. If the active compound is substantially insoluble, it ordinarily is milled to a particle size of less than 200 mesh. If the active compound is substantially water soluble, the particle size is normally adjusted by milling to provide a substantially uniform distribution in the pharmaceutical composition, e.g., about 40 mesh. In one embodiment of the present invention, the particle size range is between about 0.1 μm to about 100 μm.
Some examples of suitable excipients include lactose, dextrose, sucrose, sorbitol, mannitol, starches, gum acacia, calcium phosphate, alginates, tragacanth, gelatin, calcium silicate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, cellulose, water, syrup, and methyl cellulose. The pharmaceutical compositions can additionally include: lubricating agents such as talc, magnesium stearate, and mineral oil; wetting agents; emulsifying and suspending agents; preserving agents such as methyl- and propylhydroxybenzoates; sweetening agents; and flavoring agents. The compounds of the invention can be formulated so as to provide quick, sustained or delayed release of the active ingredient after administration to the patient by employing procedures known in the art.
While it is possible to administer a compound employed in the methods of this invention directly without any formulation, the compounds are usually administered in the form of pharmaceutical compositions comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and at least one active ingredient. These formulations can be administered by a variety of routes including oral, buccal, rectal, intranasal, transdermal, subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, and intranasal. Many of the compounds employed in the methods of this invention are effective as both injectable and oral compositions.
In order to administer transdermally, a transdermal delivery device (“patch”) is needed. Such transdermal patches may be used to provide continuous or discontinuous infusion of a compound of the present invention in controlled amounts. The construction and use of transdermal patches for the delivery of pharmaceutical agents is well known in the art. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,023,252. Such patches may be constructed for continuous, pulsatile, or on demand delivery of pharmaceutical agents.
Frequently, it will be desirable or necessary to introduce the pharmaceutical composition to the brain, either directly or indirectly. Direct techniques usually involve placement of a drug delivery catheter into the host's ventricular system to bypass the blood-brain barrier. One such implantable delivery system, used for the transport of biological factors to specific anatomical regions of the body, is described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,011,472, which is herein incorporated by reference. The delivery of hydrophilic drugs may be enhanced by intra-arterial infusion of hypertonic solutions which can transiently open the blood-brain barrier.
In one preferred embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a pharmaceutical composition comprising at lest one compound as described above in a pharmaceutical composition adapted for buccal and/or sublingual, or nasal administration. This embodiment provides administration of the active compound in a manner that avoids gastric complications, such as first pass metabolism by the gastric system and/or through the liver. This administration route may also reduce adsorption times, providing more rapid onset of therapeutic benefit. The compounds of the present invention may provide particularly favorable solubility profiles to facilitate sublingual/buccal pharmaceutical compositions. Such pharmaceutical compositions typically require relatively high concentrations of active ingredients to deliver sufficient amounts of active ingredients to the limited surface area of the sublingual/buccal mucosa for the relatively short durations the pharmaceutical composition is in contact with the surface area, to allow the absorption of the active ingredient. Thus, the very high activity of the compounds of the present invention facilitate their suitability for sublingual/buccal pharmaceutical compositions.
A compound of formula I is preferably formulated in a unit dosage form, each dosage containing from about 0.001 to about 100 mg, more usually about 1.0 to about 30 mg, of the active ingredient. The term “unit dosage form” refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages for human subjects and other mammals, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect, in association with a suitable pharmaceutical excipient as described above.
The compounds of the present invention are generally effective over a wide dosage range. For examples, dosages per day normally fall within the range of about 0.0001 to about 30 mg/kg of body weight. In the treatment of adult humans, the range of about 0.1 to about 15 mg/kg/day, in single or divided dose, is especially preferred. However, it will be understood that the amount of the compound actually administered will be determined by a physician, in the light of the relevant circumstances, including the condition to be treated, the chosen route of administration, the actual compound or compounds administered, the age, weight, and response of the individual patient, and the severity of the patient's symptoms, and therefore the above dosage ranges are not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. In some instances dosage levels below the lower limit of the aforesaid range may be more than adequate, while in other cases still larger doses may be employed without causing any harmful side effect, provided that such larger doses are first divided into several smaller doses for administration throughout the day.
