Abstract
2-Amino-4-hydroxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidine derivatives of aromatic amides, such as a benzamide or thienylcarboxamide in which the amino portion of the amide is other than L-glutamic acid are inhibitors of enzymes which utilize folic acid, in particular glycinamide ribonucleotide formyl transferase. A typical embodiment is N-(N-{4-�2-(2-amino-4-hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidin-6-yl)ethyl!benzoyl}-L-.gamma.-glutamyl)-D-aspartic acid.
Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
The benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/003,471 filed on Sep. 8, 1995 and entitled "NONCLASSICAL ANTIFOLATES" is claimed.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Folic acid is used by a number of cells in the course of cell replication. Antifolate compounds mimic folic acid and its derived cofactors, interacting with one or more folate-requiring enzymes. Antifolate compounds inhibit the growth of malignant cells and find use in the treatment of cancer.
Known antifolate compounds, such as Lometrexol (U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,008,391), include a glutamic acid portion in the natural or "L" configuration which undergoes polyglutamation upon entry into a cell by the enzyme polyglutamate synthetase (FPGS). The polyglutamated antifolate then can react with other folate-requiring enzymes such as dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) and glycinamide ribonucleotide formyl transferase (GARFT), the latter being the first of two folate-dependent enzymes in the de novo purine biosynthetic pathway. Inhibition of DEFR and GARFT and other folate-utilizing enzymes eventually leads to inhibition of cell replication.
The efficacy of classical antifolates in inhibiting cell replication can decrease with continued use. One possible explanation for this is the fact that malignant cells become resistant toward classical antifolates through impaired polyglutamation reactions. As a polyglutamated antifolate reacts more efficiently with folate-requiring enzymes than a monoglutamated antifolate, this lack of polyglutamation could be sufficient to account for the decline in efficacy.
One way of increasing efficacy, in terms of inhibiting cell replication, is to provide an antifolate that does not contain a terminal L-glutamic acid group, thus avoiding the reaction with FPGS. The difficulty in providing such a compound is that in order to be effective in inhibiting cell replication, the compound must still be able to react with other folate requiring enzymes even though it is not polyglutamated.
Use of a non-polyglutamatable inhibitor has been suggested as an approach to the design of DHFR inhibitors targeted against FPGS deficient tumors. See Rosowsky et al., J. Med, Chem., (1983), 26, 1719-1724. In addition, several derivatives of folic acid in which the terminal L-glutamate moiety is replaced by L-ornithine have been shown to be effective FPGS inhibitors. Singh, et al., J. Med. Chem., (1992), 35 (11), 2002-6. Non-polyglutamatable GARFT inhibitors also have been described. Rosowsky, et al., J. Med. Chem., (1992), 35 (9), 1578-88.

and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts and esters thereof.
The present invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing one or more of the above compounds.
The compounds of Formula I are named herein as derivatives of the pyrido�2,3-d!-pyrimidine fused ring system which is numbered as follows: ##STR8##
It will be appreciated that the pyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidines of Formula I are the tautomeric equivalent of the corresponding 3-H-4-oxo or 3-H-4-imino structures. For simplicity's sake, the compounds are depicted herein as 4-hydroxy and 4-amino compounds, it being understood the corresponding and tautomeric keto and imino structures, respectively, are fully equivalent; e.g.: ##STR9##
The carbon atom in the 6-position of the 5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidine ring is a chiral center leading to two isomers. If a further chiral center is present in Z, this will result in two diastereomers. The mixture of isomers can be utilized therapeutically, both serving as substrates for relevant folate enzymes, or can be separated so as to be in a form substantially free of the other; i.e., in a form having an optical purity of >95%.
The isomers can be separated mechanically, as by chromatography, or the racemate or mixture of diastereomers can be treated with a chiral acid operable form a salt therewith. The resultant diastereoisomeric salts are then separated through one or more fractional crystallization and thereafter the free base of the cationic moiety of at least one of the separated salts is liberated through treatment with a base and removal of the protecting groups. The liberation of the cation of the salt can be performed as a discrete step before or after the removal of the protecting groups or concomitantly with the removal of such groups under basic hydrolysis. Suitable chiral acids include the individual enantiomers of 10-camphorsulfonic acid, camphoric acid, .alpha.-bromocamphoric acid, menthoxyacetic acid, tartaric acid, diacetyltartaric acid, malic acid, pyrrolidine-5-carboxylic acid, and the like.
The group-Ar-- is a 5- or 6-membered aromatic ring which optionally can contain up to three N, O, or S heteroatoms such as, for example, 1,4-phenylene, 1,3-phenylene, thiene-2,5-diyl, thiene-2,4-diyl, furan-2,4-diyl, and furan-2,5-diyl. Such divalent aromatic rings optionally can be substituted with from 1 to 4 substituents such as bromo, chloro, fluoro, iodo, hydroxy, or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl.
"C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl" includes methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl and tert.-butyl. "Cycloalkyl" refers to C.sub.3 -C.sub.7 cycloalkyl, such as cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, and cycloheptyl. The term "polycycloalkyl" refers to two or more rings, each independently containing from 3 to 15 carbon atoms which share two or more carbon atoms, such as bicyclo�2.2.1!heptane (e.g., norbornane), bicyclo�2.2.2!octa-2-ene, and tricyclo�2.2.1.0.sup.2,6 !heptane (e.g., nortricyclene).
"Amino protecting group" refers to substituents on an amino group commonly employed to protect the amino functionality during one or more reactions. Examples include the formyl, trityl, phthalimido, pivaloyl, trichloroacetyl, chloroacetyl, bromoacetyl, iodoacetyl, benzoylmethylsulfonyl, 2-nitrophenylsulfenyl, and diphenylphosphine oxide group. The protecting group employed is not critical provided the group is stable to the condition of subsequent reactions involving other positions and can be removed at the appropriate point without disrupting the remainder of the molecule. Examples of amino protecting groups can be found in J. W. Barton, "Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry", J. G. W. McOmie, Ed., Plenum Press, New York, N.Y., 1973, Chapter 2; and T. W. Greene, P. G. M. Wuts, "Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis-2nd Edition", John Wiley and Sons, New York, N.Y., 1991, Chapter 7.
"Carboxylic acid protecting group" similarly refers to derivatives of a carboxylic acid group commonly employed to protect a carboxylic acid group. Examples of such carboxylic acid protecting groups include 4-nitrobenzyl, 4-methoxybenzyl, 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl, 2,4-dimethoxybenzyl, 2,4,6-trimethoxybenzyl, 2,4,6-trimethylbenzyl, pentamethylbenzyl, 3,4-methylenedioxybenzyl, benzhydryl, 4,4'-dimethoxybenzhydryl, 2,2',4,4'-tetramethoxybenzhydryl, methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, t-butyl, t-amyl, trityl, 4-methoxytrityl, 4,4'-dimethoxytrityl, 4,4',4"-trimethoxy-trityl, 2-phenylprop-2-yl, trimethylsilyl, t-butyldimethylsilyl, phenacyl, 2,2,2-trichloroethyl, .beta.-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl, .beta.-(di-(n-butyl)methylsilyl)ethyl, p-toluenesulfonylethyl, 4-nitrobenzylsulfonylethyl, allyl, cinnamyl, 1-(trimethylsilylmethyl)prop-1-en-3-yl, and like. The protecting group employed again is not critical provided the derivatized carboxylic acid is stable to the conditions of the reactions and can be removed at the appropriate point without disrupting the remainder of the molecule. Examples of such groups are found in Barton, "Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry", supra, Chapter 5, and Greene, "Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 2nd Edition", supra, Chapter 5.
The compounds of Formula I can form salts with bases and acids. For final usage these are pharmaceutically acceptable salts, although for synthetic steps the salts do not necessarily have to be pharmaceutically acceptable. Examples of salts with acids include the sulfate, pyrosulfate, bisulfate, sulfite, bisulfite, phosphate, monohydrogenphosphate, dihydrogenphosphate, metaphosphate, pyrophosphate, chloride, bromide, iodide, acetate, propionate, decanoate, caprylate, acrylate, formate, isobutyrate, caproate, heptanoate, propiolate, oxalate, malonate, succinate, suberate, sebacate, fumarate, maleate, butyne-1,4-dioate, hexyne-1,6-dioate, benzoate, chlorobenzoate, methylbenzoate, dinitrobenzoate, hydroxybenzoate, methoxybenzoate, phthalate, sulfonate, xylenesulfonate, phenylacetate, phenylpropionate, phenylbutyrate, citrate, lactate, gamma-hydroxybutyrate, glycollate, tartrate, methanesulfonate, propanesulfonate, naphthalene-1-sulfonate, naphthalene-2-sulfonate, mandelate, etc. Preferred pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts are those of hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, maleic acid, and methanesulfonic acid.
The present invention also pertains to the physiologically acceptable salts of the fore-going compounds with alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, ammonia and organic amines as, for example, salts in which the cations are sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, or the protonated amines such as those derived from ethylamine, triethylamine, ethanolamine, diethylaminoethanol, ethylenediamine, piperidine, morpholine, 2-piperidinoethanol, benzylamine, procaine, etc.
The compound of the present invention generally can be prepared by coupling an amino compound contributing Z with substituted aromatic acids, e.g., benzoic acid and thienyl carboxylic acid intermediates (W=--CO--) or the corresponding sulfonic acid derivatives in which W is --SO.sub.2 --. These acids are substituted with a 2-amino-4-hydroxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidin-6-yl substituent. The coupling reaction is conducted using conventional condensation techniques for forming peptide bonds such as, for example, the use of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, diphenylchlorophosphonate, or 2-chloro-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine {see, e.g, Kaminski, Synthesis, 917-920 (1987)}, following which any remaining protecting groups are removed.
The benzoic acid and thienyl carboxylic acid intermediates carrying a 2-(2-amino-4-hydroxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidin-6-yl)ethyl substituent; i.e., A is --CH.sub.2 --, can be prepared for example using the procedures of U.S. Pat. No. 4,818,819, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. This 6-ethynylpyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidine is allowed to react with a compound of the formula X-Ar-COR.sup.5 in which X is bromo or iodo and R.sup.5 is a carboxy protecting group in the presence of a palladium catalyst. The palladium catalysts are those which have been employed in the reaction of aryl halides and allylic alcohols, as described for example by Melpoler et al., J. Org. Chem., 41 (2), 265 (1976); Chalk et al., J. Org. Chem., 41 (7), 1206 (1976); Arai et al., J. Heterocyclic Chem., 15, 351 (1978); Tamaru et al., Tetrahedron Letters, 10, 919 (1978); and Tetrahedron, 35, 329 (1979); and Sakamoto, Synthesis, (1983) 312. Particularly useful are palladium acetate or a palladium or cuprous halide such as palladium chloride and a cuprous iodide.
The reaction generally is conducted in the presence of at least one molar equivalent of a secondary or tertiary amine which acts as an acid acceptor, as for example triethylamine or diethylamine, and under an inert atmosphere, optionally in the presence of an inert polar solvent such as acetonitrile, dimethylformamide, or N-methylpyrrolidinone. Acetonitrile serves as a solvent for the reactants and for the salt formed from the acid acceptor and acid generated. Moderately elevated temperatures, as for example from about 75.degree. to 125.degree. C., preferably from about 75.degree. to 100.degree. C., generally are employed.
The coupling reaction with the palladium catalyst is followed by catalytic hydrogenation of the carbon-carbon triple bond and the pyridine ring of the pyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidine ring system. Suitable catalysts for this hydrogenation include platinum oxide or palladium-on-carbon. The hydrogenation reaction generally is run at room temperature for approximately 3 to 4 hours, though up to 24 hours may be required for certain compounds in which --Ar-- is thienediyl.
The benzoic acid and thienyl carboxylic acid intermediates carrying a 2-amino-4-hydroxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidin-6-ylmethoxy or 2-amino-4-hydroxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidin-6-ylmethylthio substituent; ie., A is --O-- or --S--, respectively, can be prepared using the procedures of U.S. Pat. No. 5,159,079, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference, e.g., allowing a 2-amino-4-hydroxy-6-hydroxymethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidine to react with an ester of benzoic acid or thienyl carboxylic acid which is substituted with hydroxy or mercaptan, optionally in the presence of diethyl azodicarboxylate, to form the corresponding ether or thioether.
The benzoic acid and thienyl carboxylic acid intermediates carrying a 3-(2-amino-4-hydroxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidin-6-yl)prop-1-yl substituent, i.e., A is --CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --, can be prepared using the procedures of U.S. Pat. No. 4,895,946, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference, e.g., condensing a 2,4-diaminopyrimidin-6-one with an ester of benzoic acid or thienyl carboxylic acid which is substituted with an activated dialdehyde such as a dinitrile.
According to the foregoing processes, compounds of Formula I in which Z is hydroxy are obtained. When a compound of Formula I in which Q is amino is desired, a compound in which Q is hydroxy can be treated with 1,2,4-triazole and (4-chlorophenyl)dichlorophosphate and the product of this reaction then treated with concentrated ammoma.
Preferred amino acids for J are glycine, D-aspartic acid, D-proline, and D-homocysteic acid.
Tetrazolyls include 1H-tetrazol-5-yl, 2H-tetrazol-5-yl, 1-methyltetrazol-5-yl, 1-ethyltetrazol-5-yl, 1-propyltetrazol-5-yl, 2-ethyltetrazol-5-yl, 2-methyltetrazol-5-yl, 2-propyltetrazol-5-yl, 1-hydroxymethyltetrazol-5-yl, 2-hydroxymethyltetrazol-5-yl, 1-butyltetrazol-5-yl, 2-butyltetrazol-5-yl, 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-tetrazol-5-yl, 1-(1-hydroxyethyl)tetrazol-5-yl, 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)tetrazol-5-yl, 2-(1-hydroxyethyl)tetrazol-5-yl, 1-(1-hydroxypropyl)-tetrazol-5-yl, 2-(1-hydroxypropyl)tetrazol-5-yl, 1-(2-hydroxypropyl)tetrazol-5-yl, 2-(2-hydroxypropyl)-tetrazol-5-yl, 1-(1-hydroxybutyl)tetrazol-5-yl, 2-(1-hydroxybutyl)tetrazol-5-yl, 1-(2-hydroxybutyl)tetrazol-5-yl, and 2-(2-hydroxybutyl)tetrazol-5-yl.
A preferred subclass pertains to compound of the formula: ##STR10## in which
Ar is phenylene or thienediyl;
W is --CO-- or --SO.sub.2 --;
Q is hydroxy or amino;
(a) R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 when taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached are a pyrrolidino or piperidino group substituted with one or two groups of the formula COOT in which T is hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or
(b) when taken separately, R.sup.2 is hydrogen and R.sup.3 is:
(1) hydroxy,
(2) cycloalkyl of 3 to 8 carbon atoms substituted with --COOT in which T is hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or ##STR11## in which E is hydrogen, carboxy, or tetrazolyl and if E is other than hydrogen the configuration about the carbon atom designated * is L,
n has a value of 0 to 4, and
R is
(i) --SO.sub.3 H,
(ii) glycyl, or
(iii) --CO--J in which J is an .alpha.-amino acid residue of the D-configuration, or when E is not carboxy, hydroxy or alkoxy of 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
Particularly preferred are compounds of Formula II in which Q is hydroxy and W is --CO--.
As noted, the compounds of this invention have an effect on one or more enzymes which utilize folic acid, and in particular metabolic derivatives of folic acid, as a substrate. The compounds are particularly effective inhibitors of GARFT enzyme. For example, N-(N-{5-�2-(2-amino-4-hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido�2,3-d!pyrimidin-6-yl)ethyl!thien-2-ylcarbonyl}-L-.gamma.-glutamyl)-D-aspartic acid demonstrates 100% inhibition against growth of 6C3HED lymphosarcoma tumor evaluated in C3H female mice at 100 mg/kg. The compounds can be used, under the supervision of qualified professionals, to inhibit the growth of neoplasms including choriocarcinoma, leukemia, adenocarcinoma of the female breast, epidermid cancers of the head and neck, squamous or small-cell lung cancer, and various lymphosarcomas. The compounds can also be used to treat mycosis fungoides, psoriasis, and arthritis.
The compounds can be administered orally but preferably are administered parenterally, alone or in combination with other therapeutic agents including other anti-neoplastic agents, steroids, etc., to an animal in need of treatment. Animals include mammals, reptiles, crustacean, amphibians, fish, and poultry. The principal target recipient are mammals, particularly humans. Parenteral routes of administration include intramuscular, intrathecal, intravenous and intra-arterial. Dosage regimens must be titrated to the particular neoplasm, the condition of the patient, and the response but generally doses will be from about 10 to about 100 mg/day for 5-10 days or single daily administration of 250-500 mg, repeated periodically; e.g., every 14 days. While having a low toxicity as compared to other antimetabolites now in use, a toxic response often can be eliminated by either or both of reducing the daily dosage or administering the compound on alternative days or at longer intervals such as every three days.
Oral dosage forms including tablets and capsules, contain from 1 to 100 mg of drug per unit dosage. Isotonic saline solutions containing 1-100 mg/mL can be used for parenteral administration. Accordingly, the present invention also includes pharmaceutical compositions comprising as active ingredient one or more compounds of Formula I associated with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent or excipient.
In preparing compositions containing one or more other compounds of Formula I, the active ingredients are usually mixed with an excipient, diluted by an excipient or enclosed within such a carrier which can be in the form of a capsule or sachet. When the excipient serves as a diluent, it may be a solid, semi-solid or liquid material which acts as a vehicle, carrier or medium for the active ingredient. Thus, the compositions can be in the form of tablets, pills, powders, elixirs, suspensions, emulsions, solutions, syrups, soft and hard gelatin capsules, suppositories, sterile injectable solutions and sterile packaged powders. Examples of suitable excipients include lactose, dextrose, sucrose, sorbitol, mannitol, starch, gum acacia, calcium silicate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidinone, cellulose, water, syrup, and methyl cellulose, the formulations 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 or flavoring agents.
The compositions can be formulated so as to provide immediate, sustained or delayed release of the active ingredient after administration to the patient by employing known procedures. The compositions are preferably formulated in a unit dosage form. The term "unit dosage form" refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages for human subjects and other mammals, each unit containing (i) a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce, upon administration in a single or multiple dose regimen, the desired therapeutic effect, in association with (ii) a suitable pharmaceutical excipient. However, it will be understood that the amount of the compound actually administered, and the frequency of administration, will be determined by a physician in light of the relevant circumstances including the relative severity of a disease state, the choice of compound to be administered, the age, weight, and response of the individual patient, and the chosen route of administration.
