Abstract
Corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) antagonists of Formula (I) ##STR1## and their use in treating psychiatric disorders and neurological diseases including major depression, anxiety-related disorders, post-traumatic stress disorders, supranuclear palsy and eating disorders.
Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to novel compounds and pharmaceutical compositions, and to methods of using same in the treatment of psychiatric disorders and neurological diseases including major depression, anxiety-related disorders, post-traumatic stress disorders, supranuclear palsy and eating disorders.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Corticotropin releasing factor (herein referred to as CRF), a 41 amino acid peptide, is the primary physiological regulator of proopiomelanocortin(POMC)-derived peptide secretion from the anterior pituitary gland [J. Rivier et al., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. (USA) 80:4851 (1983); W. Vale et al., Science 213:1394 (1981)]. In addition to its endocrine role at the pituitary gland, immunohistochemical localization of CRF has demonstrated that the hormone has a broad extrahypothalamic distribution in the central nervous system and produces a wide spectrum of autonomic, electrophysiological and behavioral effects consistent with a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator role in brain [W. Vale et al., Rec. Prog. Horm. Res. 39:245 (1983); G. F. Koob, Persp. Behav. Med. 2:39 (1985); E. B. De Souza et al., J. Neurosci. 5:3189 (1985)]. There is also evidence that CRF plays a significant role in integrating the response of the immune system to physiological, psychological, and immunological stressors [J. E. Blalock, Physiological Reviews 69:1 (1989); J. E. Morley, Life Sci. 41:527 (1987)].
Clinical data provide evidence that CRF has a role in psychiatric disorders and neurological diseases including depression, anxiety-related disorders and eating disorders. A role for CRF has also been postulated in the etiology and pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, progressive supranuclear palsy and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis as they relate to the dysfunction of CRF neurons in the central nervous system [for review see E. B. De Souza, Hosp. Practice 23:59 (1988)].
In affective disorder, or major depression, the concentration of CRF is significantly increased in the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) of drug-free individuals [C. B. Nemeroff et al., Science 226:1342 (1984); C. M. Banki et al., Am. J. Psychiatry 144:873 (1987); R. D. France et al., Biol. Psychiatry 28:86 (1988); M. Arato et al., Biol Psychiatry 25:355 (1989)]. Furthermore, the density of CRF receptors is significantly decreased in the frontal cortex of suicide victims, consistent with a hypersecretion of CRF [C. B. Nemeroff et al., Arch. Gen. Psychiatry 45:577 (1988)]. In addition, there is a blunted adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) response to CRF (i.v. administered) observed in depressed patients [P. W. Gold et al., Am J. Psychiatry 141:619 (1984); F. Holsboer et al., Psychoneuroendocrinology 9:147 (1984); P. W. Gold et al., New Eng. J. Med. 314:1129 (1986)]. Preclinical studies in rats and non-human primates provide additional support for the hypothesis that hypersecretion of CRF may be involved in the symptoms seen in human depression [R. M. Sapolsky, Arch. Gen. Psychiatry 46:1047 (1989)]. There is preliminary evidence that tricyclic antidepressants can alter CRF levels and thus modulate the numbers of CRF receptors in brain [Grigoriadis et al., Neuropsychopharmacology 2:53 (1989)].
There has also been a role postulated for CRF in the etiology of anxiety-related disorders. CRF produces anxiogenic effects in animals and interactions between benzodiazepine/non-benzodiazepine anxiolytics and CRF have been demonstrated in a variety of behavioral anxiety models [D. R. Britton et al., Life Sci. 31:363 (1982); C. W. Berridge and A. J. Dunn Regul. Peptides 16:83 (1986)]. Preliminary studies using the putative CRF receptor antagonist a-helical ovine CRF (9-41) in a variety of behavioral paradigms demonstrate that the antagonist produces "anxiolytic-like" effects that are qualitatively similar to the benzodiazepines [C. W. Berridge and A. J. Dunn Horm. Behav. 21:393 (1987), Brain Research Reviews 15:71 (1990)]. Neurochemical, endocrine and receptor binding studies have all demonstrated interactions between CRF and benzodiazepine anxiolytics providing further evidence for the involvement of CRF in these disorders. Chlordiazepoxide attenuates the "anxiogenic" effects of CRF in both the conflict test [K. T. Britton et al., Psychopharmacology 86:170 (1985); K. T. Britton et al., Psychopharmacology 94:306 (1988)] and in the acoustic startle test [N. R. Swerdlow et al., Psychopharmacology 88:147 (1986)] in rats. The benzodiazepine receptor antagonist (Ro15-1788), which was without behavioral activity alone in the operant conflict test, reversed the effects of CRF in a dose-dependent manner while the benzodiazepine inverse agonist (FG7142) enhanced the actions of CRF [K. T. Britton et al., Psychopharmacology 94:306 (1988)].
The mechanisms and sites of action through which the standard anxiolytics and antidepressants produce their therapeutic effects remain to be elucidated. It has been hypothesized however, that they are involved in the suppression of the CRF hypersecretion that is observed in these disorders. Of particular interest is that preliminary studies examining the effects of a CRF receptor antagonist (a-helical CRF.sub.9-41) in a variety of behavioral paradigms have demonstrated that the CRF antagonist produces "anxiolytic-like" effects qualitatively similar to the benzodiazepines [for review see G. F. Koob and K. T. Britton, In: Corticotropin-Releasing Factor: Basic and Clinical Studies of a Neuropeptide, E. B. De Souza and C. B. Nemeroff eds., CRC Press p221 (1990)].

Synthesis
The pyrazinones and triazinones of this invention can be prepared by one of the general schemes outlined below (Scheme 1-6).
Compounds of the Formula (I) wherein Z.dbd.CH, Y.dbd.NR.sup.4, R.sup.1 =halogen and R.sup.2 =H can be prepared as shown in Scheme 1. Compounds wherein R.sup.2 is a substituent other than H as defined in the broad scope of the invention can also be prepared as shown in Scheme 1 by using the corresponding R.sup.2 COH substituted aldehydes or ClCHR.sup.2 CN substituted haloacetonitriles. ##STR3##
Reaction of a cyanide salt with formaldehyde and the appropriate substituted amine afforded the corresponding aminoacetonitrile which was purified as the hydrochloride salt of Formula (III). Alternatively the same compounds of Formula (III) can be synthesized by reaction of the amine H.sub.2 NR.sup.3 with a haloacetonitrile, such as chloroacetonitrile, in the presence of a base such as a tertiary amine or an inorganic base such as K.sub.2 CO.sub.3 in an organic solvent and isolated as a salt of an inorganic acid by treatment with that acid. Amine salt of Formula (III) was treated with an oxalyl halide, R.sup.1 COCOR.sup.1, such as oxalyl chloride or bromide to afford the dihalo compound Formula (IV), as described in Vekemans, J.; Pollers-Wieers, C.; Hoornaert, G. J. Heterocyclic Chem. 20, 919, (1982). Compound Formula (IV) can be coupled with an aryl amine H.sub.2 NAr thermally, in the presence of a strong base such as NaH, KN(SiMe.sub.3).sub.2, LiN(SiMe.sub.3).sub.2 or NaN(SiMe.sub.3).sub.2 in an aprotic organic solvent, or under acid catalysis to give compounds of Formula (V). Compounds of Formula (V) can be alkylated with an alkyl halide R.sup.4 X to afford compounds of Formula (I).
Compounds where R.sup.1 =alkyl or substituted alkyl can be prepared according to Scheme 2. ##STR4## Reaction of the intermediate of Formula (IV) in Scheme 1, wherein R.sup.1 =X=halogen in Scheme 2, with an alkyl or aryl thiol, HSR", in the presence of base such as NaH affords the adduct of Formula (VII), which may then be treated with a trialkylaluminum as described in Hirota, K.; Kitade, Y.; Kanbe, Y.; Maki, Y.; J. Org. Chem. 57, 5268, (1992), in the presence of a palladium catalyst, such as Pd(PPh.sub.3).sub.2 Cl.sub.2, to give compounds of Formula (VIII). Condensation of compounds of Formula (VIII) with an aryl amine H.sub.2 NAr under thermal, base, or acid catalyzed conditions gives compounds of Formula (IX). Alternatively (VIII) may be oxidized to the corresponding sulfones with an oxidant such as KMnO.sub.4 and then condensed with the arylamines of formula H.sub.2 NAr to give (IX). The use of appropriately substituted aluminum alkyls, or simple transformations of those substituted alkyls can give access to compounds of Formula (I), where R.sup.1 is a substituted alkyl; see Ratovelomanana, V.; Linstrumelle, G.; Tet. Letters 52, 6001 (1984) and references cited therein.
Compounds of the Formula (I) wherein Z.dbd.CH, Y.dbd.O or S(O).sub.n and R.sup.1 =halogen can be prepared as shown in Scheme 3. ##STR5##
Reaction of the dihalo intermediate (IV) from Scheme 1 with a phenoxide or thiophenoxide, formed by treatment of the corresponding phenol or thiophenol with an appropriate base, such as NaH in an aprotic solvent, gives the adduct of Formula (X) or (XI). Adduct (XI) may be further oxidized to the sulfoxide or sulfone of Formula (XII), by treatment with the appropriate oxidant, such as a peroxide, NaIO4 or KMnO4.
Compounds of Formula (I) where R.sup.1 =OR, SR and S(O).sub.n R and Z.dbd.CH can be introduced on compounds of Formula (V) by copper or copper salt-catalyzed coupling of the corresponding anions RO.sup.- and RS.sup.- with the pyrazinone bromide. Keegstra, M. A.; Peters, T. H. A.; Brandsma, L.; Tetrahedron, 48, 3633 (1992) describes the addition of phenoxide anions by this method; alternatively, the same conditions can be used for the addition of thiophenoxide anions. Alternatively the same compounds can be synthesized by Scheme 4. ##STR6##
In Scheme 4, reaction of an aminoacetonitrile salt (III), described in Scheme 1, with an oxalyl halide ester (XIII) gives the corresponding amide (XIV), which in turn can be converted to the corresponding imidate salt (XV). This can be cyclized under treatment with a base, such as K.sub.2 CO.sub.3 or Et.sub.3 N to the pyrazinedione of Formula (XVI). This can be converted to the corresponding halide (XIX), using a halogenating agent such as POX.sub.3, oxalyl halide or SOX.sub.2. Alternatively, (XVI) can be converted to the corresponding mesylate, tosylate or triflate, by treatment with the corresponding mesyl, tosyl, or triflic anhydride. Subsequently, (XIX) can be coupled with an aniline to the corresponding adduct of Formula (XX), under the conditions described in Scheme 1, or (XIX) can be coupled with a phenoxide or thiophenoxide as described in Scheme 3 to yield compounds of Formula (I) wherein Y.dbd.O or S(O).sub.n.
Compounds of Formula (I) wherein R.sup.1 =substituted N and Z.dbd.CH can be introduced on compounds of Formula (XV) by reaction with an amine to form the corresponding amidate (XVII) according to Scheme 5. Subsequently, (XVII) can be cyclized, halogenated, and substituted with the appropriate aniline, phenoxide or thiophenoxide as described in Scheme 4 above.
Compounds of Formula I wherein Z.dbd.CH and R.sup.1 .dbd.COR.sup.7 or CO.sub.2 R.sup.7 can be synthesized from compounds of Formula (VII) by coupling with the appropriate vinyl aluminum or boron reagent in the presence of a palladium catalyst, such as Pd(PPh.sub.3).sub.2 Cl.sub.2, and further transformations of the vinyl group, using methods known to one skilled in the art. ##STR7##
The compounds of Formula (I) where Z.dbd.CH and R.sup.1 or R.sup.3 is a functional group not compatible with the procedures of Schemes 1-5 may be prepared from precursors where the interfering functionality of R.sup.1 or R.sup.3 is protected using methods known to one skilled in the art (see T. W. Green and P. G. M. Wuts, Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, Wiley, New York, 1991); or from precursors bearing R.sup.1 or R.sup.3 groups amenable to later conversion into the desired functionality using standard methods (see J. March, Advanced Organic Chemistry, Wiley, New York, 1992).
Triazinones of Formula (I) wherein Z.dbd.N and Y.dbd.NR.sup.4, O or S(O).sub.n can be prepared by the synthetic route shown in Scheme 6.
Condensation of a substituted hydrazine with acetamidines or imidates provides amidrazones of Formula (XXX) (Khrustalev, V. A., Zelenin, K. N. Zhurnal Organicheskoi Khimii, Vol. 15, No. 11, 1979, 2280). Cyclization of (XXX) with oxalyl derivatives such as oxalyl chloride provides diones of Formula (XXXI). Treatment of (XXXI) with chlorodehydrating agents such as thionyl chloride, oxalyl chloride or phosphorous oxychloride provides chlorotriazinones of Formula (XXXII), which may be treated with phenols, thiophenols, anilines and their heterocyclic analogs under basic, acidic or thermal conditions to provide compounds of Formula (I) where Z.dbd.N and Y.dbd.O, S or NH, respectively. In the preceding instance where Y.dbd.NH, alkylation of the nitrogen atom with e.g. alkyl iodides provides the related compounds of Formula (I) where Z.dbd.N and Y.dbd.NR.sup.4. In the preceding instance where Y.dbd.S, oxidation with e.g. mCPBA provides the compounds of Formula (I) where Z.dbd.N and Y.dbd.S(O) and S(O).sub.2. The compounds of Formula (I) where Z.dbd.N and R.sup.1 or R.sup.3 is a functional group not compatible with the procedures of Scheme 4 may be prepared from precursors such as amidrazones of Formula (XXX) or substituted hydrazines where the ##STR8## interfering functionality of R.sup.1 or R.sup.3 is protected using methods known to one skilled in the art (see T. W. Green and P. G. M. Wuts, Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, Wiley, New York, 1991); or from precursors bearing R.sup.1 or R.sup.3 groups amenable to later conversion into the desired functionality using standard methods (see J. March, Advanced Organic Chemistry, Wiley, New York, 1992).
Triazinones of Formula (I) wherein Z.dbd.N and Y.dbd.NR.sup.4, O or S(O).sub.n can also be prepared by the synthetic route shown in Scheme 7 ##STR9##
Reaction of ethyl oxalyl chloride with acylated hydrazines of Formula (XXXIV) provides the ethyl oxalyl acylhydrazine derviatives of Formula (XXXV). Compounds of Formula (XXXIV) may be arrived at via condensation of an appropriate ketone or aldehyde with an acylated hydrazide to give acylated hydrazones which may then be reduced under catalytic hydrogenation conditions or by other reducing agents to give the compounds of Formula (XXXIV). The abovementioned acylated hydrazones may also be produced by acylation of a hydrazone made from hydrazine and an appropriate ketone or aldehyde using methods known to one skilled in the art of organic synthesis. Alternatively, compounds of Formula (XXXIV) may also be produced by acylation of an appropriate hydrazine using methods known to one skilled in the art of organic synthesis.
The ethyl esters of compound (XXXV) may then be converted to the primary amide derivatives of Formula (XXXVI) by treatment with an ammonia source such as ammonium hydroxide. Cyclization of (XXXVI) to produce the diones of Formula (XXXI) may be achieved by treatment with, for example, iodotrimethylsilane (TMSI) or POCl.sub.3, or by heating in the presence of a Lewis acid such as ZnCl.sub.2. The oxo group in the 5 position of the 1,2,4-triazin-5,6-diones of Formula (XXXI) may then be converted to a leaving group using reagents such as trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride under basic conditions to yield compounds of Formula (XXXVII) which may then be treated with phenols, thiophenols, anilines and their heterocyclic analogs under basic conditions to provide compounds of Formula (I)
Additional 1,2,4-triazinone syntheses are disclosed in the literature (A. R. Katritzky and C. W. Rees, Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry, Pergamon Press, New York, Vol. 3, 1984, p. 385) and can be prepared by one skilled in the art.
Intermediates, for example ArYH, H.sub.2 NAr, HOAr or HSAr, in the synthesis of compounds of Formula (I) in Schemes 1-6 may be prepared using standard methods known to one skilled in the art (see, D. Barton and W. D. Ollis, Comprehensive Organic Chemistry, Pergamon Press, New York, Vol. 1-6, 1979; A. R. Katritzky and C. W. Rees, Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry, Pergamon Press, New York, Vol. 1-8, 1984; B. Trost and I.

CRF-R1 Receptor Binding Assay for the Evaluation of Biological Activity
The following is a description of the isolation of cell membranes containing cloned human CRF-R1 receptors for use in the standard binding assay as well as a description of the assay itself.
Messenger RNA was isolated from human hippocampus. The mRNA was reverse transcribed using oligo (dt) 12-18 and the coding region was amplified by PCR from start to stop codons The resulting PCR fragment was cloned into the EcoRV site of PGEMV, from whence the insert was reclaimed using XhoI+XbaI and cloned into the XhoI+XbaI sites of vector pm3ar (which contains a CMV promoter, the SV40 `t` splice and early poly A signals, an Epstein-Barr viral origin of replication, and a hygromycin selectable marker). The resulting expression vector, called phchCRFR was transfected in 293EBNA cells and cells retaining the episome were selected in the presence of 400 mM hygromycin. Cells surviving 4 weeks of selection in hygromycin were pooled, adapted to growth in suspension and used to generate membranes for the binding assay described below. Individual aliquots containing approximately 1.times.10.sup.8 of the suspended cells were then centrifuged to form a pellet and frozen.
For the binding assay a frozen pellet described above containing 293EBNA cells transfected with hCRFR1 receptors is homogenized in 10 ml of ice cold tissue buffer (50 mM HEPES buffer pH 7.0, containing 10 mM MgCl.sub.2, 2 mM EGTA, 1 mg/l aprotinin, 1 mg/ml leupeptin and 1 mg/ml pepstatin). The homogenate is centrifuged at 40,000.times.g for 12 min and the resulting pellet rehomogenized in 10 ml of tissue buffer. After another centrifugation at 40,000.times.g for 12 min, the pellet is resuspended to a protein concentration of 360 mg/ml to be used in the assay.
Binding assays are performed in 96 well plates; each well having a 300 ml capacity. To each well is added 50 ml of test drug dilutions (final concentration of drugs range from 10.sup.-10 -10.sup.-5 M), 100 ml of .sup.125 I-ovine-CRF (.sup.125 I-o-CRF) (final concentration 150 pM) and 150 ml of the cell homogenate described above. Plates are then allowed to incubate at room temperature for 2 hours before filtering the incubate over GF/F filters (presoaked with 0.3% polyethyleneimine) using an appropriate cell harvester. Filters are rinsed 2 times with ice cold assay buffer before removing individual filters and assessing them for radioactivity on a gamma counter.
Curves of the inhibition of .sup.125 I-o-CRF binding to cell membranes at various dilutions of test drug are analyzed by the iterative curve fitting program LIGAND [P. J. Munson and D. Rodbard, Anal. Biochem. 107:220 (1980)], which provides Ki values for inhibition which are then used to assess biological activity.
A compound is considered to be active if it has a K.sub.i value of less than about 10000 nM for the inhibition of CRF. Compounds with a K.sub.i less than 100 nM for the inhibition of CRF are desirable. A number of compounds of the invention have been made and tested in the above assay and shown to have K.sub.i values less than 100 nM thus confirming the utility of the invention.
Inhibition of CRF-Stimulated Adenylate Cyclase Activity
Inhibition of CRF--Stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was performed as described by G. Battaglia et al. Synapse 1:572 (1987). Briefly, assays were carried out at 37.degree. C. for 10 min in 200 ml of buffer containing 100 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4 at 37.degree. C.), 10 mM MgCl.sub.2, 0.4 mM EGTA, 0.1% BSA, 1 mM isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX), 250 units/ml phosphocreatine kinase, 5 mM creatine phosphate, 100 mM guanosine 5'-triphosphate, 100 nM OCRF, antagonist peptides (concentration range 10.sup.-9 to .sub.10.sup.-6 m) and 0.8 mg original wet weight tissue (approximately 40-60 mg protein). Reactions were initiated by the addition of 1 mM ATP/[.sup.32 P]ATP (approximately 2-4 mCi/tube) and terminated by the addition of 100 ml of 50 mM Tris-HCL, 45 mM ATP and 2% sodium dodecyl sulfate. In order to monitor the recovery of cAMP, 1 .mu.l of [.sup.3 H]cAMP (approximately 40,000 dpm) was added to each tube prior to separation. The separation of [.sup.32 P]cAMP from [.sup.32 P]ATP was performed by sequential elution over Dowex and alumina columns. Recovery was consistently greater than 80%.
A compound of this invention was tested in this assay and found to be active; IC.sub.50 <10000 nM.
In vivo Biological Assay
The in vivo activity of the compounds of the present invention can be assessed using any one of the biological assays available and accepted within the art. Illustrative of these tests include the Acoustic Startle Assay, the Stair Climbing Test, and the Chronic Administration Assay. These and other models useful for the testing of compounds of the present invention have been outlined in C. W. Berridge and A. J. Dunn Brain Research Reviews 15:71 (1990)
Compounds may be tested in any species of rodent or small mammal. Disclosure of the assays herein is not intended to limit the enablement of the invention.
Compounds of this invention have utility in the treatment of inbalances associated with abnormal levels of corticotropin releasing factor in patients suffering from depression, affective disorders, and/or anxiety.
Compounds of this invention can be administered to treat these abnormalities by means that produce contact of the active agent with the agent's site of action in the body of a mammal. The compounds can be administered by any conventional means available for use in conjunction with pharmaceuticals either as individual therapeutic agent or in combination of therapeutic agents. They can be administered alone, but will generally be administered with a pharmaceutical carrier selected on the basis of the chosen route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice.
The dosage administered will vary depending on the use and known factors such as pharmacodynamic character of the particular agent, and its mode and route of administration; the recipient's age, weight, and health; nature and extent of symptoms; kind of concurrent treatment; frequency of treatment; and desired effect. For use in the treatment of said diseases or conditions, the compounds of this invention can be orally administered daily at a dosage of the active ingredient of 0.002 to 200 mg/kg of body weight. Ordinarily, a dose of 0.01 to 10 mg/kg in divided doses one to four times a day, or in sustained release formulation will be effective in obtaining the desired pharmacological effect.
Dosage forms (compositions) suitable for administration contain from about 1 mg to about 100 mg of active ingredient per unit. In these pharmaceutical compositions, the active ingredient will ordinarily be present in an amount of about 0.5 to 95% by weight based on the total weight of the composition.
The active ingredient can be administered orally is solid dosage forms, such as capsules, tablets and powders; or in liquid forms such as elixirs, syrups, and/or suspensions. The compounds of this invention can also be administered parenterally in sterile liquid dose formulations.
Gelatin capsules can be used to contain the active ingredient and a suitable carrier such as but not limited to lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, steric acid, or cellulose derivatives. Similar diluents can be used to make compressed tablets. Both tablets and capsules can be manufactured as sustained release products to provide for continuous release of medication over a period of time. Compressed tablets can be sugar-coated or film-coated to mask any unpleasant taste, or used to protect the active ingredients from the atmosphere, or to allow selective disintegration of the tablet in the gastrointestinal tract.
Liquid dose forms for oral administration can contain coloring or flavoring agents to increase patient acceptance.
In general, water, pharmaceutically acceptable oils, saline, aqueous dextrose (glucose), and related sugar solutions and glycols, such as propylene glycol or polyethylene glycol, are suitable carriers for parenteral solutions. Solutions for parenteral administration preferably contain a water soluble salt of the active ingredient, suitable stabilizing agents, and if necessary, butter substances. Antioxidizing agents, such as sodium bisulfite, sodium sulfite, or ascorbic acid, either alone or in combination, are suitable stabilizing agents. Also used are citric acid and its salts, and EDTA. In addition, parenteral solutions can contain preservatives such as benzalkonium chloride, methyl- or propyl-paraben, and chlorobutanol.
Suitable pharmaceutical carriers are described in "Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences", A. Osol, a standard reference in the field.
Useful pharmaceutical dosage-forms for administration of the compounds of this invention can be illustrated as follows:
