Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to compounds that modulate protein kinase C activity, pharmaceutical compositions including these compounds, and methods for using these compounds to modulate protein kinase C activity in mammals, including humans. The invention also relates to compounds useful as intermediates in preparing the invented protein kinase C modulator compounds.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Protein kinase C (calcium/phospholipid protein kinase; PKC) catalyses phosphorylation of the amino acids serene and threonine. PKC is a ubiquitous enzyme in body tissues and is thought to play an important role in neurotransmission, tumor promotion, and cellular proliferation.
Because PKC has wide-ranging physiologic functions, safe and effective modulators of this enzyme will have great therapeutic value. PKC modulators may be useful in treatment of various diseases including inflammatory diseases, proliferative diseases such as psoriasis and various malignancies, neurologic disorders, endocrine disorders, and hypertension.
Compounds that have been identified as PKC inhibitors generally are categorized into five classes. The first class of modulating compounds are lipids which are structurally similar to diacylglycerol. These compounds, however, are not useful as therapeutic agents because they either are excluded from intracellular spaces or are metabolized very rapidly. (May, W., et al., Biochemistry 23:5036, 1984).
The second class of PKC modulating compounds is exemplified by the isoquinoline sulfonamide H-7 and its analogs. (Hidaka, H., et al., Biochemistry 23:5036, 1984). Examples of compounds in this second class include 4-aminomethyl-1-[2,3-(di-n-decyloxy)n-propyl]-4-phenylpiperidine (Shoji, et al. Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 234:590, 1985), several phenothiazine agents (Mori, T., et al. J. Biol. Chem. 255:8378, 1980; Schatzman, R., et al. Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 98:669, 1981), tamoxifen (O'Brien, C., et al. Cancer Res. 45:2462, 1985), quercetin (Srivastava, A., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 131:1, 1985), amiloride (Besterman, J., et al. J. Biol. Chem. 260:1155, 1985), verapamil (Mori, T., et al. J. Biol. Chem. 255:8378, 1980), adriamycin (Wise, B., et al. J. Biol. Chem. 257:8489, 1982), polymyxin B (Mazzei, G., et al. Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 109:1129, 1982), gangliosides (Kim, J., Neurosci. Res. 15:159, 1986), sangivamycin (Loomis, C. and Bell R., J. Biol. Chem. 263:1682, 1988), retinal (Patarroyo, Immunobiol. 170:305, 1985), and staurosporine (Tamoki, T., et al. Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 135:397, 1986). The compounds in the second class are not specific PKC inhibitors and thus are not useful as therapeutic modulators of PKC activity.
The third class of PKC modulators are peptides thought to bind to the pseudosubstrate site that maintains the enzyme in its inactive form (House, C. and Kemp, B., Science 238:1726, 1987). Peptide inhibitors, however, are excluded from the cytoplasm and therefore are useless as therapeutic agents.
The fourth class of compounds known to modulate PKC are aminoacridines. (Hannum, Y. and Bell, R., J. Biol. Chem. 263:5124, 1988).
The fifth class of compounds that are known to modulate PKC include sphingosine and related sphingolipids. (Bell, R., et al. Cold Spr. Harbor Sym. Quant. Biol. 53:103, 1988). Since sphingosines are major components of biological membranes, and are major dietary components, it is very difficult to use them or their derivatives therapeutically, particularly to treat a systemic disease.
Therefore, despite many years of research there remains a need for safe and effective PKC modulators that are useful therapeutic agents.

X and Y independently are hydrogen, C.sub.10-20 alkyl, C(O)E, C(O)C.sub.10- C.sub.20 alkyl, C(O)C.sub.10 -C.sub.20 alkenyl or S(O.sub.2)C.sub.10 -C.sub.20 alkyl with the proviso that they are not the same;
E is CH(NH.sub.2)FG, CH.sub.2 FG, or piperidine;
F is C.sub.1-10 alkyl;
G is NH.sub.2, cyclo C.sub.3-8 alkyl, CO.sub.2 H, phenyl, guanidino, C(O)NH.sub.2, OH, SH, SC.sub.1-5 alkyl, imidazole or CO.sub.2 M;
M is C.sub.1-8 alkyl, phenyl, substituted phenyl, benzyl or substituted benzyl; and
Z is hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl;
or any pharmaceutically acceptable salt or hydrate thereof.
As used in the specification and claims C.sub.I-I' alkyl means a straight or branched, saturated hydrocarbon having I to I' carbon atoms where I and I' are integers, C.sub.I-I' alkenyl means a straight or branched unsaturated hydrocarbon having I to I' carbon atoms where I and I' are integers, C.sub.I-I' alkoxy means a hydroxy-substituted C.sub.I-I' alkyl; also as used herein "modulator" includes agents that stimulate and agents that inhibit PKC activity and substituted phenyl or benzyl means phenyl or benzyl substituted by one or more of C.sub.1-4 alkyl, halogen, hydroxy, C.sub.1-4 alkoxy, or amino. Generally, PKC inhibitors are useful as therapeutic agents and PKC stimulators are useful in various basic research and diagnostic assays. The formula used in the specification and claims are intended to include each optical isomer and racemic mixtures.
Preferred formula (I) compounds are compounds in which X is C.sub.10-20 alkyl, more preferably C.sub.12-18 alkyl, most preferably C.sub.13-17 alkyl. Also preferred are compounds in which Y is the carbon terminus of lysine or ornithine.
Formula (I) compounds are prepared from corresponding (aminomethyl)pyridines by processes such as described in the examples and shown in Scheme I, below. The starting (aminomethyl)pyridines and carboxylic acid derivatives are commercially available and can be prepared by known procedures.
Scheme I ##STR3##
Scheme I illustrates reaction of (aminomethyl)pyridine (A) with a t-butoxycarbonyl (Boc)-protected amino acid (B) to form compounds of formula (C). Formula (C) compounds then are reduced to form compounds (D) which then are reacted with an acid chloride to yield formula (E) compounds. Treatment of compounds (E) with hydrochloric acid yields formula (I) compounds such as compound (F).
Other formula (I) compounds are prepared using known modifications to the Scheme I reaction sequence. Formula (I) compounds wherein Y is other than the deprotected analogue of compound (B) are prepared by replacing formula (B) compounds with appropriate carboxylic acid derivatives. Formula (I) compounds wherein X is other than the C.sub.13 alkyl shown are prepared by reacting compounds (D) with suitable carboxylic acid or acid chloride derivatives. Compounds wherein X or Y are S(O2)E are prepared in a similar fashion by replacing the acid chloride in Scheme I with the appropriate sulfonyl chloride.
Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of the invented compounds are formed with strong or moderately strong organic or inorganic acids by known methods. Exemplary of the acid addition salts which are included in this invention are maleate, fumarate, lactate, oxalate, methanesulfonate, ethansulfonate, benzenesulfonate, tartrate, citrate, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, sulfate, phosphate, quinate, and nitrate salts.
Also included in the invention are pharmaceutical compositions comprising formula I compounds that inhibit PKC activity and suitable carriers in pharmaceutical dosage forms such as capsules, tablets, injectable preparations, ointments, creams, topical reservoirs such as transdermal patches, and suppositories. Solid or liquid carriers can be used. Solid carriers include starch, lactose, calcium sulfate dihydrate, terra alba, sucrose, talc, gelatin, agar, pectin, acacia, magnesium stearate, and stearic acid. Liquid carriers include syrup, peanut oil, olive oil, saline, and water. Ointments and creams are prepared using various well known hydrophilic and hydrophobic bases. Topical reservoirs suitably are prepared using known polymeric materials such as various acrylic-based polymers selected to provide desired release characteristics. Suppositories are prepared from standard bases such as polyethylene glycol and cocoa butter.
The method of this invention of modulating PKC activity comprises administering internally to a subject expected to be benefited thereby an effective amount of a formula I compound. Doses of formula I compounds included in the invented methods and pharmaceutical compositions are an efficacious, nontoxic quantity selected from the range of 0.01 to 100 mg/kg of active compound, preferably 0.1 to 50 mg/kg. Persons skilled in the art using routine clinical testing are able to determine optimum doses. The desired dose is administered to a subject from 1 to 6 or more times daily, orally, rectally, parenterally, or topically.
Activity of Formula I compounds in modulating PKC activity is determined using the phorbol dibutyrate binding and PKC activity assays of Examples 28 and 29, respectively. The assays of these Examples are useful to determine which of the PKC modulating compounds of Formula I inhibit PKC activity. Formula I compounds which stimulate PKC activity are determined using the Example 29 procedure except that phorbol myristateacetate is omitted. The results of these assays demonstrate that Formula I compounds are potent, selective modulators of PKC activity and these assays are well known routine tests useful to distinguish Formula I compounds which inhibit PKC activity from Formula I compounds which stimulate PKC activity.
Assays for measuring PKC activity also are described in: Takai, T. et al., Studies on a Cyclic Nucleotide-independent Protein Kinase and its Proenzyme in Mammalian Tissues, J. Biol. Chem. 1977, 252, 7603-7609; Nishizuka, Y., The Role of Protein Kinase C in Cell Surface Signal Transduction and Tumor Production, Nature 1984, 308, 693-698; and Kishimoto, A., et al., Activation of Calcium and Phospholipid-dependent Protein Kinase by Diacylglycerol, Its Possible Relationship to Phosphotidylinositol Turnover, J.

As indicated in Table IV, the active compounds described herein significantly inhibit phosphorylation by PKC, with IC.sub.50 values ranging from 13 micromolar for 2,6-diamino-N-([1-(1-oxotridecyl)-2-piperdinyl]methyl)hexanamide to 92 micromolar for 3-amino-4-oxo-4-[([1-(1-oxotridecyl)-2-piperidinyl]methyl)aminobutanoic acid phenylmethyl ester. In contrast, none of the compounds inhibited the phosphorylation of histone by protein kinase A which is reported as percent inhibition at the maximum concentration tested 100 .mu.M. These data demonstrate that the active compounds are selective inhibitors of PKC and not general phosphorylation inhibitors.
