This invention is directed to compounds that inhibit p38 kinase (particularly p38α kinase), TNF (particularly TNF-α), and/or cyclooxygenase (particularly cyclooxygenase-2 or “COX-2”) activity. This invention also is directed to compositions of such compounds, methods for making such compounds, and methods for treating disorders (typically pathological disorders) associated with p38 kinase activity, TNF activity, and/or cyclooxygenase-2 activity.
Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAP) constitute a family of proline-directed serine/threonine kinases that activate their substrates by dual phosphorylation. The kinases are activated by a variety of signals, including nutritional and osmotic stress, UV light, growth factors, endotoxin, and inflammatory cytokines. The p38 MAP kinase group is a MAP family of various isoforms, including p38α, p38β, and p38γ. These kinases are responsible for phosphorylating and activating transcription factors (e.g., ATF2, CHOP, and MEF2C), as well as other kinases (e.g., MAPKAP-2 and MAPKAP-3). The p38 isoforms are activated by bacterial lipopolysaccharide, physical and chemical stress, and pro-inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor (“TNF”) and interleukin-1 (“IL-1”). The products of the p38 phosphorylation mediate the production of inflammatory cytokines, including TNF, IL-1, and cyclooxygenase-2.
It is believed that p38α kinase can cause or contribute to the effects of, for example, inflammation generally; arthritis; neuroinflammation; pain; fever; pulmonary disorders; cardiovascular diseases; cardiomyopathy; stroke; ischemia; reperfusion injury; renal reperfusion injury; brain edema; neurotrauma and brain trauma; neurodegenerative disorders; central nervous system disorders; liver disease and nephritis; gastrointestinal disorders; ulcerative diseases; ophthalmic diseases; opthalmological disorders; glaucoma; acute injury to the eye tissue and ocular traumas; diabetes; diabetic nephropathy; skin-related disorders; viral and bacterial infections; myalgias due to infection; influenza; endotoxic shock; toxic shock syndrome; autoimmune disease; bone resorption diseases; multiple sclerosis; disorders of the female reproductive system; pathological (but non-malignant) disorders, such as hemaginomas, angiofibroma of the nasopharynx, and avascular necrosis of bone; benign and malignant tumors/neoplasia including cancer; leukemia; lymphoma; systemic lupus erthrematosis (SLE); angiogenesis including neoplasia; and metastasis.
TNF is a cytokine produced primarily by activated monocytes and macrophages. Excessive or unregulated TNF production (particularly TNF-α) has been implicated in mediating a number of diseases. It is believed, for example, that TNF can cause or contribute to the effects of inflammation (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease), asthma, autoimmune disease, graft rejection, multiple sclerosis, fibrotic diseases, cancer, fever, psoriasis, cardiovascular diseases (e.g., post-ischemic reperfusion injury and congestive heart failure), pulmonary diseases (e.g., hyperoxic alveolar injury), hemorrhage, coagulation, radiation damage, and acute phase responses like those seen with infections and sepsis and during shock (e.g., septic shock and hemodynamic shock). Chronic release of active TNF can cause cachexia and anorexia. And TNF can be lethal.
TNF also has been implicated in infectious diseases. These include, for example, malaria, mycobacterial infection and meningitis. These also include viral infections, such as HIV, influenza virus, and herpes virus, including herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1), herpes simplex virus type-2 (HSV-2), cytomegalovirus (CMV), varicella-zoster virus (VZV), Epstein-Barr virus, human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6), human herpesvirus-7 (HHV-7), human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8), pseudorabies and rhinotracheitis, among others.
IL-8 is another pro-inflammatory cytokine, which is produced by mononuclear cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and keratinocytes. This cytokine is associated with disorders including inflammation.
IL-1 is produced by activated monocytes and macrophages, and is involved in inflammatory responses. IL-1 plays a role in many pathophysiological responses, including rheumatoid arthritis, fever, and reduction of bone resorption.
TNF, IL-1, and IL-8 affect a wide variety of cells and tissues, and are important inflammatory mediators of a wide variety of disorders. The inhibition of these cytokines by inhibition of the p38 kinase is beneficial in controlling, reducing, and alleviating many of these disease states.

PCT application number PCT/IB05/002574 filed Aug. 9, 2005 refers to certain pyrazolyl-3-[2-(triazolopyridinylsulfanyl)-benzyl]-urea derivatives.
There is a need to provide new p38 kinase inhibitors that are good drug candidates. Preferably, p38 kinase inhibitors that show good potency, high levels of selectivity over other related protein kinases, have properties particularly suitable for providing effective treatment via the inhalation route, are suitable for the treatment of allergic and non-allergic airways diseases (particularly obstructive or inflammatory airways diseases), are non-toxic and demonstrate few side-effects, have physical properties suitable for administration by inhalation, exist in a physical form that is stable and non-hygroscopic, and/or are easily formulated. The following disclosure describes substituted pyridinone and pyrimidinone compounds that exhibit one or more such desirable qualities.
This invention is directed to substituted pyridinone pyrazole urea and pyrimidinone pyrazole urea compounds that inhibit p38 kinase activity, TNF activity, and/or cyclooxygenase-2 activity. This invention also is directed to, for example, a method for inhibiting p38 kinase, TNF, and/or cyclooxygenase-2 activity, and particularly to a method for treating a disorder (typically a pathological disorder) mediated by p38 kinase activity, TNF activity, and/or cyclooxygenase-2 activity. Such a method is typically suitable for use with mammals in need of such treatment.

The compounds of this invention may be used in the form of salts derived from inorganic or organic acids. Depending on the particular compound, a salt of the compound may be advantageous due to one or more of the salt's physical properties, such as enhanced pharmaceutical stability in differing temperatures and humidities, or a desirable solubility in water or oil. In some instances, a salt of a compound also may be used as an aid in the isolation, purification, and/or resolution of the compound.
Where a salt is intended to be administered to a patient (as opposed to, for example, being used in an in vitro context), the salt preferably is pharmaceutically acceptable. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include salts commonly used to form alkali metal salts and to form addition salts of free acids or free bases. In general, these salts typically may be prepared by conventional means with a compound of this invention by reacting, for example, the appropriate acid or base with the compound.
Pharmaceutically-acceptable acid addition salts of the compounds of this invention may be prepared from an inorganic or organic acid. Examples of suitable inorganic acids include hydrochloric, hydrobromic acid, hydroionic, nitric, carbonic, sulfuric, and phosphoric acid. Suitable organic acids generally include, for example, aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic, araliphatic, heterocyclyl, carboxylic, and sulfonic classes of organic acids. Specific examples of suitable organic acids include acetate, trifluoroacetate, formate, propionate, succinate, glycolate, gluconate, digluconate, lactate, malate, tartaric acid, citrate, ascorbate, glucuronate, maleate, fumarate, pyruvate, aspartate, glutamate, benzoate, anthranilic acid, mesylate, stearate, salicylate, p-hydroxybenzoate, phenylacetate, mandelate, embonate (pamoate), methanesulfonate, ethanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, pantothenate, toluenesulfonate, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonate, sufanilate, cyclohexylaminosulfonate, algenic acid, b-hydroxybutyric acid, galactarate, galacturonate, adipate, alginate, bisulfate, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, cyclopentanepropionate, dodecylsulfate, glycoheptanoate, glycerophosphate, hemisulfate, heptanoate, hexanoate, nicotinate, 2-naphthalesulfonate, oxalate, palmoate, pectinate, persulfate, 3-phenylpropionate, picrate, pivalate, thiocyanate, tosylate, undecanoate and naphthalene-1,5-disulfonate.
Pharmaceutically-acceptable base addition salts of the compounds of this invention include, for example, metallic salts and organic salts.
In one embodiment of the present invention, metallic salts include alkali metal (group Ia) salts, alkaline earth metal (group IIa) salts, and other physiological acceptable metal salts. Such salts may be made from aluminum, calcium, lithium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, and zinc.
In another embodiment of the present invention, organic salts may be made from tertiary amines and quaternary amine salts, such as tromethamine, diethylamine, N,N′-dibenzylethylenediamine, chloroprocaine, choline, diethanolamine, ethylenediamine, meglumine (N-methylglucamine), and procaine. Basic nitrogen-containing groups may be quaternized with agents such as lower alkyl (C1-C6) halides (e.g., methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl chlorides, bromides, and iodides), dialkyl sulfates (e.g., dimethyl, diethyl, dibutyl, and diamyl sulfates), long chain halides (e.g., decyl, lauryl, myristyl, and stearyl chlorides, bromides, and iodides), arylalkyl halides (e.g., benzyl and phenethyl bromides), and others.
This invention is directed, in part, to a method for treating a disorder (typically a pathological disorder) in mammals, such as humans, other primates (e.g., monkeys, chimpanzees. etc.), companion animals (e.g., dogs, cats, horses. etc.), farm animals (e.g., goats, sheep, pigs, cattle, etc.), laboratory animals (e.g., mice, rats, etc.), and wild and zoo animals (e.g., wolves, bears, deer, etc.) having or disposed to having such a disorder.
In this specification, the phrase “treating a disorder” means ameliorating, suppressing, eradicating, reducing the severity of, decreasing the frequency of incidence of preventing, reducing the risk of, or delaying the onset of the disorder.
Some embodiments of this invention are directed to a method for treating a p38-mediated disorder. As used herein, the term “p38-mediated disorder” refers to any disorder (particularly pathological disorders, i.e., diseases and disorders) in which p38 kinase (particularly p38α kinase) plays a role, either by control of p38 kinase itself, or by p38 kinase causing another factor to be released, such as, for example, IL-1, IL-6, or IL-8. A disease state in which, for instance, IL-1 is a major component, and whose production or action is exacerbated or secreted in response to p38, would therefore be considered a disorder mediated by p38.
The compounds of this invention generally are also useful for treating pathological disorders that include, but are not limited to:
asthma of whatever type, etiology, or pathogenesis, in particular asthma that is atopic asthma, non-atopic asthma, allergic asthma, atopic bronchial IgE-mediated asthma, bronchial asthma, essential asthma, true asthma, intrinsic asthma caused by pathophysiologic disturbances, extrinsic asthma caused by environmental factors, essential asthma of unknown or in apparent cause, non-atopic asthma, bronchitic asthma, emphysematous asthma, exercise-induced asthma, allergen induced asthma, cold air induced asthma, occupational asthma, infective asthma caused by bacterial, fungal, protozoal, or viral infection, non-allergic asthma, incipient asthma, wheezy infant syndrome and bronchiolytis;
The compounds of this invention generally are also useful in treating obstructive or inflammatory airways diseases of whatever type, etiology, or pathogenesis, in particular an obstructive or inflammatory airways disease that is chronic eosinophilic pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), COPD that includes chronic bronchitis, pulmonary emphysema or dyspnea associated or not associated with COPD, COPD that is characterized by irreversible, progressive airways obstruction, adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), exacerbation of airways hyper-reactivity consequent to other drug therapy and airways disease that is associated with pulmonary hypertension.
The compounds of this invention generally are useful for treating pathological disorders that include, but are not limited to:
Some embodiments of this invention are alternatively (or additionally) directed to a method for treating a TNF-mediated disorder. As used herein, the term “TNF-mediated disorder” refers to any disorder (particularly any pathological disorders, i.e., diseases or disorders) in which TNF plays a role, either by control of TNF itself, or by TNF causing another monokine to be released, such as, for example, IL-1, IL-6, and/or IL-8. A disease state in which, for instance, IL-1 is a major component and whose production or action is exacerbated or secreted in response to TNF, would therefore be considered a disorder mediated by TNF.
As TNF-β has close structural homology with TNF-α (also known as cachectin), and because each induces similar biologic responses and binds to the same cellular receptor, the synthesis of both TNF-α and TNF-β are inhibited by the compounds of this invention and thus are herein referred to collectively as “TNF” unless specifically delineated otherwise.
Some embodiments of this invention are alternatively (or additionally) directed to a method for treating a cyclooxygenase-2-mediated disorder. As used herein, the term “cyclooxygenase-2-mediated disorder” refers to any disorder (particularly pathological disorders, i.e., diseases and disorders) in which cyclooxygenase-2 plays a role, either by control of cyclooxygenase-2 itself, or by cyclooxygenase-2 causing another factor to be released. Many cyclooxygenase-2-mediated disorders are known in the art, and include, for example, inflammation and other cyclooxygenase-mediated disorders listed by Carter et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 6,271,253
According to another embodiment of the present invention, the compounds of the invention can also be used as a combination with one or more additional therapeutic agents to be co-administered to a patient to obtain some particularly desired therapeutic end result such as the treatment of pathophysiologically-relevant disease processes including, but not limited to (i) bronchoconstriction, (ii) inflammation, (iii) allergy, (iv) tissue destruction, (v) signs and symptoms such as breathlessness, cough. The second and more additional therapeutic agents may also be a compound of the invention, or one or more P38 and/or TNF inhibitors known in the art. More typically, the second and more therapeutic agents will be from a different class of therapeutic agents.
As used herein, the terms “co-administration”, “co-administered” and “in combination with”, referring to the compounds of the invention and one or more other therapeutic agents, is intended to mean, and does refer to and include the following:
(a) simultaneous administration of such combination of compound(s) of the invention) and therapeutic agent(s) to a patient in need of treatment, when such components are formulated together into a single dosage form which releases said components at substantially the same time to said patient,
(b) substantially simultaneous administration of such combination of compound(s) of the invention and therapeutic agent(s) to a patient in need of treatment, when such components are formulated apart from each other into separate dosage forms which are taken at substantially the same time by said patient, whereupon said components are released at substantially the same time to said patient,
(c) sequential administration of such combination compound(s) of the invention and therapeutic agent(s) to a patient in need of treatment, when such components are formulated apart from each other into separate dosage forms which are taken at consecutive times by said patient with a significant time interval between each administration, whereupon said components are released at substantially different times to said patient; and
(d) sequential administration of such combination of compound(s) of the invention and therapeutic agent(s) to a patient in need of treatment, when such components are formulated together into a single dosage form which releases said components in a controlled manner whereupon they are concurrently, consecutively, and/or overlappingly administered at the same and/or different times by said patient, where each part may be administered by either the same or different route.
Suitable examples of other therapeutic agents which may be used in combination with the compound(s) of the invention, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates or compositions thereof, include, but are by no means limited to:
5-Lipoxygenase (5-LO) inhibitors or 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (FLAP) antagonists,
Leukotriene antagonists (LTRAs) including antagonists of LTB4, LTC4, LTD4, and LTE4,
Histamine receptor antagonists including H1 and H3 antagonists,

or β2 agonists can be used.
A wide variety of methods may be used alone or in combination to administer the compounds described above. For example, the compounds may be administered orally, intravascularly (IV), intraperitoneally, subcutaneously, intramuscularly (IM), by inhalation spray, rectally, or topically.
Typically, a compound described in this specification is administered in an amount effective to inhibit p38 kinase (particularly p38α kinase), TNF (particularly TNF-α), and/or cyclooxygenase (particularly cyclooxygenase-2).
In one embodiment of the present invention, the total daily dose of the compound (administered in single or divided doses) is typically from about 0.01 to about 100 mg/kg. In another embodiment of the present invention, the total daily dose of the compound is typically from about 0.1 to about 50 mg/kg. In still another embodiment of the present invention, the total daily dose of the compound is from about 0.5 to about 30 mg/kg (i.e., mg compound per kg body weight). Dosage unit compositions may contain such amounts or submultiples thereof to make up the daily dose. In many instances, the administration of the compound will be repeated a plurality of times in a day (typically no greater than 4 times), Multiple doses per day typically may be used to increase the total daily dose, if desired.
Factors affecting the dosage regimen include the type, age, weight, sex, diet, and disorder of the patient; the severity of the pathological disorder; the route of administration; pharmacological considerations, such as the activity, efficacy, pharmacokinetic, and toxicology profiles of the particular compound employed; whether a drug delivery system is utilized; and whether the compound is administered as part of a drug combination. Thus, the dosage regimen actually employed can vary widely, and, therefore, can deviate from the dosage regimen set forth above.
The present compounds may be used in co-therapies, partially or completely, in place of other conventional anti-inflammatory, such as together with steroids, cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (“NSAIDs”), disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (“DMARDs”), immunosuppressive agents, 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors, leukotriene B4 (“LTB4”) antagonists, and leukotriene A4 (“LTA4”) hydrolase inhibitors.
This invention also is directed to pharmaceutical compositions (or “medicaments”) comprising the compounds described above (including tautomers of the compounds, and pharmaceutically-acceptable salts of the compounds and tautomers), and to methods for making pharmaceutical compositions comprising those compounds in combination with one or more conventional non-toxic, pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers, diluents, wetting or suspending agents, vehicles, and/or adjuvants (the carriers, diluents, wetting or suspending agents, vehicles, and adjuvants sometimes being collectively referred to in this specification as “carrier materials”); and/or other active ingredients. The composition depends on the method of administration. Formulation of drugs is generally discussed in, for example, Hoover, John E., Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences (Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa.: 1975) (incorporated by reference into this specification). See also, Liberman, H. A., Lachman, L., eds., Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms (Marcel Decker, New York, N.Y., 1980) (incorporated by reference into this specification).
In many embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is made in the form of a dosage unit containing a particular amount of the active ingredient. Typically, the pharmaceutical composition contains from about 0.1 to 1000 mg (and more typically, 7.0 to 350 mg) of the compound.
The compounds of the invention can also be administered intranasally or by inhalation, typically in the form of a dry powder (either alone, as a mixture, for example, in a dry blend with lactose, or as a mixed component particle, for example, mixed with phospholipids, such as phosphatidylcholine) from a dry powder inhaler or as an aerosol spray from a pressurised container, pump, spray, atomiser (in one embodiment of the invention, an atomiser with electrohydrodynamics can be utilized to produce a fine mist), or nebuliser, with or without the use of a suitable propellant, such as 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane or 1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptafluoropropane. For intranasal use, the powder may comprise a bioadhesive agent, for example, chitosan or cyclodextrin.
The pressurised container, pump, spray, atomizer, or nebuliser contains a solution or suspension of the compound(s) of the invention comprising, for example, ethanol, aqueous ethanol, or a suitable alternative agent for dispersing, solubilising, or extending release of the active, a propellant(s) as solvent and an optional surfactant, such as sorbitan trioleate, oleic acid, or an oligolactic acid.
Prior to use in a dry powder or suspension formulation, the drug product is micronised to a size suitable for delivery by inhalation (typically less than 5 microns). This may be achieved by any appropriate comminuting method, such as spiral jet milling, fluid bed jet milling, supercritical fluid processing to form nanoparticles, high pressure homogenisation, or spray drying.
Capsules (made, for example, from gelatin or hydroxypropylmethylcellulose), blisters and cartridges for use in an inhaler or insufflator may be formulated to contain a powder mix of the compound of the invention, a suitable powder base such as lactose or starch and a performance modifier such as 1-leucine, mannitol, or magnesium stearate. The lactose may be anhydrous or in the form of the monohydrate. In one embodiment the lactose is anhydrous. In another embodiment of the present invention, the lactose is in the form of the monohydrate. Other suitable excipients include dextran, glucose, maltose, sorbitol, xylitol, fructose, sucrose and trehalose.
A suitable solution formulation for use in an atomiser using electrohydrodynamics to produce a fine mist may contain from 1 μg to 20 mg of the compound of the invention per actuation and the actuation volume may vary from 1 μl to 100 μl. A typical formulation may comprise a compound of the invention, propylene glycol, sterile water, ethanol and sodium chloride. Alternative solvents which may be used instead of propylene glycol include glycerol and polyethylene glycol.
Suitable flavours, such as menthol and levomenthol, or sweeteners, such as saccharin or saccharin sodium, may be added to those formulations of the invention intended for inhaled/intranasal administration.
Formulations for inhaled/intranasal administration may be formulated to be immediate and/or modified release using, for example, PGLA. Modified release formulations include delayed-, sustained-, pulsed-, controlled-, targeted and programmed release.
In the case of dry powder inhalers and aerosols, the dosage unit is determined by means of a valve which delivers a metered amount. Units in accordance with the invention are typically arranged to administer a metered dose or “puff” containing from 0.001 mg to 10 mg of the compound of the invention. The overall daily dose will typically be in the range 0.001 mg to 40 mg which may be administered in a single dose or, more usually, as divided doses throughout the day.
Solid dosage forms for oral administration include, for example, hard or soft capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the compounds are ordinarily combined with one or more adjuvants. If administered per os, the compounds may be mixed with lactose, sucrose, starch powder, cellulose esters of alkanoic acids, cellulose alkyl esters, talc, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, magnesium oxide, sodium and calcium salts of phosphoric and sulfuric acids, gelatin, acacia gum, sodium alginate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and/or polyvinyl alcohol, and then tableted or encapsulated for convenient administration. Such capsules or tablets may contain a controlled-release formulation, as may be provided in a dispersion of the compound of this invention in hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose. In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, the dosage forms also may comprise buffering agents, such as sodium citrate, or magnesium or calcium carbonate or bicarbonate. Tablets and pills additionally may be prepared with enteric coatings.
Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include, for example, pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs containing inert diluents commonly used in the art (e.g., water). Such compositions also may comprise adjuvants, such as wetting, emulsifying, suspending, flavoring (e.g., sweetening), and/or perfuming agents.
“Parenteral administration” includes subcutaneous injections, intravenous injections, intramuscular injections, intrasternal injections, and infusion. Injectable preparations (e.g., sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions) may be formulated according to the known art using suitable dispersing, wetting agents, and/or suspending agents. Acceptable carrier materials include, for example, water, 1,3-butanediol, Ringer's solution, isotonic sodium chloride solution, bland fixed oils (e.g., synthetic mono- or diglycerides), dextrose, mannitol, fatty acids (e.g., oleic acid), dimethyl acetamide, surfactants (e.g., ionic and non-ionic detergents), and/or polyethylene glycols (e.g., PEG 400).
Formulations for parenteral administration may, for example, be prepared from sterile powders or granules having one or more of the carriers materials mentioned for use in the formulations for oral administration. The compounds may be dissolved in water, polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, ethanol, corn oil, cottonseed oil, peanut oil, sesame oil, benzyl alcohol, sodium chloride, and/or various buffers. The pH may be adjusted, if necessary, with a suitable acid, base, or buffer.
In one embodiment, the compounds of the present invention make up from about 0.075 to about 30% (w/w). In another embodiment, the compounds of the present invention make up from about 0.2 to 20% (w/w). In yet another embodiment of the present invention, the compounds make up from about 0.4 to 15% (w/w) of a pharmaceutical composition used for topical or rectal administration.
Suppositories for rectal administration may be prepared by, for example, mixing a compound of this invention with a suitable nonirritating excipient that is solid at ordinary temperatures, but liquid at the rectal temperature and will therefore melt in the rectum to release the drug. Suitable excipients include, for example, such as cocoa butter; synthetic mono-, di-, or triglycerides; fatty acids; and/or polyethylene glycols.
“Topical administration” includes transdermal administration, such as via transdermal patches or iontophoresis devices. Compositions for topical administration also include, for example, topical gels, sprays, ointments, and creams.
When formulated in an ointment, the compounds of this invention may be employed with, for example, either a paraffinic or a water-miscible ointment base. When formulated in a cream, the active ingredient(s) may be formulated with, for example, an oil-in-water cream base. If desired, the aqueous phase of the cream base may include, for example at least about 30% (w/w) of a polyhydric alcohol, such as propylene glycol, butane-1,3-diol, mannitol, sorbitol, glycerol, polyethylene glycol, and mixtures thereof.
A topical formulation may include a compound which enhances absorption or penetration of the active ingredient through the skin or other affected areas. Examples of such dermal penetration enhancers include dimethylsulfoxide and related analogs.
When the compounds of this invention are administered by a transdermal device, administration will be accomplished using a patch either of the reservoir and porous membrane type or of a solid matrix variety. In either case, the active agent is delivered continuously from the reservoir or microcapsules through a membrane into the active agent permeable adhesive, which is in contact with the skin or mucosa of the recipient. If the active agent is absorbed through the skin, a controlled and predetermined flow of the active agent is administered to the recipient. In the case of microcapsules, the encapsulating agent may also function as the membrane. The transdermal patch may include the compound in a suitable solvent system with an adhesive system, such as an acrylic emulsion, and a polyester patch. The oily phase of the emulsions of this invention may be constituted from known ingredients in a known manner. While the phase may comprise merely an emulsifier, it may comprise, for example, a mixture of at least one emulsifier with a fat or an oil or with both a fat and an oil.
In one embodiment of the present invention, a hydrophilic emulsifier is included together with a lipophilic emulsifier which acts as a stabilizer. In another embodiment of the present invention, both an oil and a fat are included. Together, the emulsifier(s) with or without stabilizer(s) make-up the so-called emulsifying wax, and the wax together with the oil and fat make up the so-called emulsifying ointment base which forms the oily dispersed phase of the cream formulations. Emulsifiers and emulsion stabilizers suitable for use in the formulation of the present invention include Tween 60, Span 80, cetostearyl alcohol, myristyl alcohol, glyceryl monostearate, and sodium lauryl sulfate, among others. The choice of suitable oils or fats for the formulation is based on achieving the desired cosmetic properties, given that the solubility of the active compound in most oils likely to be used in pharmaceutical emulsion formulations is very low. Thus, the cream should preferably be a non-greasy, non-staining and washable product with suitable consistency to avoid leakage from tubes or other containers. Straight or branched chain, mono- or dibasic alkyl esters such as di-isoadipate, isocetyl stearate, propylene glycol diester of coconut fatty acids, isopropyl myristate, decyl oleate, isopropyl palmitate, butyl stearate, 2-ethylhexyl palmitate or a blend of branched chain esters, for example, may be used. These may be used alone or in combination depending on the properties required. Alternatively, high melting point lipids such as white soft paraffin and/or liquid paraffin or other mineral oils may be used. Formulations suitable for topical administration to the eye also include eye drops wherein the compound of this invention is dissolved or suspended in suitable carrier, typically comprising an aqueous solvent.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the compounds of this invention are present in such formulations in a concentration of from about 0.5 to about 20% (w/w). In another embodiment of the present invention, the compounds are present in such formulations in a concentration of from about 0.5 to 10% (w/w). In yet another embodiment of the present invention, the compounds are present in such formulations in a concentration of from about 1.5% (w/w)).
Other carrier materials and modes of administration known in the pharmaceutical art may also be used.
Representative procedures for the preparation of compounds of the invention are outlined below in the Schemes. The starting materials can be purchased or prepared using methods known to those skilled in the art. Similarly, the preparation of the various intermediates can be achieved using methods known in the art. The starting materials may be varied and additional steps employed to produce compounds encompassed by the invention, as demonstrated by the examples below. In addition, different solvents and reagents can typically be used to achieve the above transformations. Furthermore, in certain situations, it may be advantageous to alter the order in which the reactions are performed. Protection of reactive groups may also be necessary to achieve the above transformations. In general, the need for protecting groups, as well as the disorders necessary to attach and remove such groups, will be apparent to those skilled in the art of organic synthesis. When a protecting group is employed, deprotection will generally be required. Suitable protecting groups and methodology for protection and deprotection such as those described in Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis by Greene and Wuts are known and appreciated in the art.
The following schemes are representative of the methods that can be used to prepare these compounds.
An appropriately substituted pyranone is condensed with benzyl or phenyl amine. The resulting pyridinone is alkylated with a substituted benzyl halide to afford the benzyloxy pyridinone. This pyridinone can be manipulated via standard functional group interconversion or deprotection to afford the benzyl amine derivative. This benzyl amine derivative can be acylated and further converted to substituted ureas.
Alternatively the initially formed pyridinone can be halogenated to afford the halopyridinone. As in Scheme I this material can then be further elaborated.
Generation of the iodopyridinone allows for the installation of alkyl groups via standard metal catalyzed reactions with suitably activated alkyl derivatives.
Condensation of phenyl carbamates of substituted amino pyrazoles allows for the generation of highly functionalized ureas.
Halogenation of substituted benzyl amines affords the desired halobenzyl amines.
Deprotection of the N-dimethoxylbenzyl pyridinone affords the des-N-benzyl pyridinone. Alkylation of this pyridinone allows for the preparation of functionalized N-benzyl pyridinones that can be further manipulated as shown above.
Alternatively the unsubstituted pyridinone can be O-benzylated to afford the NH-pyridinone. This intermediate can be N-benzylated and then further derivatized to the desired ureas.
The corresponding pyrimidinones are prepared by mono-alkylation of the dihydroxy pyrimidinone derivative. The O-benzyl pyrimidinone is alkylated to afford the desired N-benzyl pyrimidinone. Manipulation of this material is analogous to the chemistry described above.
The elaborated pyrimidinone is iodinated and then converted to the methyl derivative via standard metal-catalyzed coupling reactions.
The N-phenyl pyridinones can be O-benzylated and further derivatized via conventional methods to afford the desired ureas.
The N-phenyl pyrimidinones can be O-benzylated and further derivatized via conventional methods to afford the desired ureas.

Phosgene (20% in toluene, 2.1 mL) was added to dichloromethane (7 mL) in a 100 mL round bottom flask under inert atmosphere stirred in an ice-water bath. 4-(2-(Aminomethyl)benzyloxy)-1-(2-methoxybenzyl)-3-chloro-6-methylpyridin-2(1H)-one as a hydrate (H2O)0.85 (0.271 g, 0.65 mmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (10 mL) and transferred via cannula to the phosgene solution over one minute. About 3-4 minutes later, a solution of saturated sodium bicarbonate (37 mL) was poured in. After stirring for a total of twenty minutes from the first addition, the reaction mixture was poured into a separatory funnel and the flask rinsed with 10 mL additional dichloromethane. The dichloromethane layer was run onto solid sodium sulfate, swirled for a couple of minutes in an ice-water bath, filtered, and stripped down to a couple of mL of liquid on the rotary evaporator, then placed on a vacuum line, quickly giving a white solid.

p38α/MK2 Cascade Assay
The ability of compounds to inhibit activated p38α was determined in a p38α/MK-2 cascade assay format. The kinase activity of p38α is determined by its ability to phosphorylate/activate nonactive MK2 (54-400). Activation of MK-2 by p38α is measured by following the phosphorylation of a MK-2 specific peptide, Hsp27 peptide (FITC-KKKALSRQLSVAA). The phosphorylation of the Hsp27 peptide was quantified using the Caliper LabChip 3000. The kinase reactions were carried out in 20 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.0005% Tween-20, 0.01% BSA, 1 mM DTT, and 2% DMSO. The inhibitors were varied between 1000-0.05 nM, while the Hsp27 peptide substrate, MgATP, and nonactive MK-2 (54-400) were held constant at 0.5 □M, 5 □M, and 1 nM, respectively. Inhibitors were preincubated with p38α for 40 minutes prior to initiating the reaction with peptide, MgATP, and MK-2. The kinase reactions were quenched after 60 minutes by the addition of stop buffer (180 mM HEPES, 30 mM EDTA, and 0.2% Coating Reagent-3).
The above protocol assay was used to determine the IC50 values for some of the compounds in the above Examples. The results are shown in Table 1.
IC50 values were determined for the compounds listed in Table 2, using the same p38α/MK2 cascade assay used to determine the IC50 values for the compounds in Table 1. The compounds of Table 2 were prepared using methods similar to those listed in the Examples for compounds of Table 1.
The above detailed description of embodiments is intended only to acquaint others skilled in the art with the invention, its principles, and its practical application so that others skilled in the art may adapt and apply the invention in its numerous forms, as they may be best suited to the requirements of a particular use. This invention, therefore, is not limited to the above embodiments, and may be variously modified.
