Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention relates to quinoline sulfonamide compounds and their use for the treatment or prevention of bacterial infections. In particular, the invention relates to novel sulfonamide quinoline compounds substituted at the 2-position of the quinoline ring.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Bacterial Infections in humans and other animals continue to present a threat to human and animal health and well-being. Despite the evolution of several classes of antibiotics over the last century, bacterial resistance to commonly used antibiotics is a globally recognised problem to which there are few solutions at present.


Antibiotic resistance is present in every country. In February 2017, the World Health Organisation listed priority human pathogens for which research and development of new antibiotics is most critical, these being Acinetobacter baumannii (carbapenem-resistant), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (carbapenem-resistant), and Enterobacteraceae (carbapenem-resistant, ESBL-producing). Animals, particularly in food production, are also susceptible to a wide range of bacterial infections, e.g. Gram-negative respiratory disease, foot-rot, and mastitis including acute E. coli mastitis, and Pseudomonas mastitis. In New Zealand, dairy cattle, antibiotics are used primarily during dry cow therapy and for the treatment of mastitis, where the most commonly used antibiotics are penicillin-based products. Worldwide the widespread use of antibiotics in animal food has driven the rise of antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria.


Antibiotics are used in livestock production for both disease prevention and treatment of disease. Approximately 80% of the antibiotics used in the United States is through their use in the animal food industry, and many of these antibiotics are important in human medicine. While the development of antibiotic resistance by bacteria is a natural process, the widespread use of antibiotics in the animal food and agricultural industries raises the possibility of antibiotic-resistant bacteria of animal origin contributing to infections in humans. As such, it is crucial that new antibacterial agents are developed that are targeted specifically at the agricultural industry, to protect the use of essential human antibiotics.


One example of a problematic bacterial infection in animals is bovine mastitis, a bacterial infection of the udder. Bovine mastitis is the most significant production limiting disease for dairying worldwide, and costs the New Zealand dairy industry NZ$280M each year.


Bovine mastitis is not only a disease of economic importance, but one with possible implications for public health. Mastitis is recognised as the most common reason for antibiotic use in the dairy industry, both within New Zealand and worldwide.


Preventative teat sprays containing sanitisers such as chlorhexidine and iodine are vital tools in managing mastitis. These sanitisers are applied to cows after every milking. However, chlorhexdine and iodine are essential human medicines used for the control of infection. They appear on the World Health Organisation (WHO) Model List of Essential Medicines. As bacterial tolerance to chlorhexidine has already been reported in Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonae, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, it is crucial that new non-medical alternative sanitisers are developed for use in the agricultural industry.


An ionophore is a chemical species that reversibly binds ions. Many ionophores are lipid-soluble entities that transport ions across a cell membrane. An ionophore binds a metal, transports it across a lipid bilayer, releases the metal, and then re-engages with metal ions not yet transported across the membrane, repeating the process. Ionophores have been used as growth promotants in agriculture for decades. Monensin is the most widely used, and is included in animal feed to improve weight gain of beef cattle through a mechanism that alters rumen fermentation, in turn increasing milk yield and reducing milk fat content. Current evidence indicates that ionophores are unlikely to contribute to the spread of antibiotic resistance in humans because ionophores are not used in human medicine and have a distinct mode of action compared to antibiotic used in humans.


In the search for improved antibacterial agents, the applicant has found that ionophores able to bind zinc are potential candidates because they show rapid killing of certain bacteria. Notably, these bacteria are mastitis-causing bacteria and ionophores that bind zinc are not used in human medicine to treat bacterial infections. Taking advantage of zinc as a means to control mastitis offers two advantages: zinc homeostasis is critical to bacterial survival, and excess zinc accumulation in bacteria results in cellular toxicity.


8-Hydroxy quinoline compounds are examples of ionophores. They have the general structure:

They are known to have varied antibacterial activity against a number of clinically-relevant bacterial species, including E. coli, S. aureus, C. difficile, S. mutans, and Mycobacterium species. The acidic phenolic hydrogen is thought to be important for activity because it can be ionised relatively easily. Adding electron withdrawing substituents to the phenol ring (e.g. chlorine atoms) decreases the pKa of the phenolic hydrogen and can affect antibacterial activity. Sulfonamide quinoline compounds (where the hydroxyl group of the phenol ring has been replaced with a sulfonamide group) are also effective as antibacterial agents through their ionophore activity. The pKa of the sulfonamide hydrogen can be tailored by changing the substituent on the sulfonamide moiety.


Examples of known 8-sulfonamide quinoline compounds include:

The applicant has now found that certain substituted sulfonamide quinoline compounds exhibit inhibitory (antibacterial) activity against several groups of bacteria (including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria). It is therefore an object of the invention to provide novel quinoline compounds as potential antibacterial agents, or to at least provide a useful alternative to current antibiotics.

Compounds of the Invention

The compounds of the invention are defined according to formula (I) above. The applicants have found that the compounds of the invention are effective inhibitors of several bacterial strains. As will be appreciated, there is an expectation that the compounds will be inhibitors of a larger group of bacteria.


The compounds are characterised as having a substituted sulfonamide group at the 8-position of the quinoline ring structure and a substituent at the 2-position. Without being bound by theory, it is considered that the pKa of the sulfonamide hydrogen plays a role in the ability of the compound to act as an ionophore and therefore that an electron withdrawing group on the sulfonamide substituent is preferable. Examples of electron withdrawing groups include halogen, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, alkyl carbonyl, alkyl ester, carboxylic acid, nitrile, and nitro.


The substituent at the 2-position may be chosen from a large variety of different types of groups. Some preferred groups are those that incorporate a nitrogen functionality. Again without being bound by theory, it is thought that those compounds having an amino group one carbon removed from the quinoline ring at the 2-position may beneficially interact, in combination with the quinoline nitrogen and the sulfonamide nitrogen, with a zinc cation.


Preparation of Compounds of the Invention

The compounds of the invention may be prepared by any known or standard synthetic procedures. Some compounds may be prepared according to scheme 1 from 8-amino-2-methylquinoline by reaction firstly with a substituted sulfonyl chloride, followed by oxidation of the 2-methyl group to an aldehyde (to give a 2-formyl derivative), and then reductive amination.

Alternatively, some compounds may be prepared according to scheme 2 from 8-amino-2-methylquinoline (which is first protected as a carbamate) via oxidation of the 2-methyl group to an aldehyde (to give a 2-formyl derivative), reductive amination (followed by deprotection) and then reaction with a substituted sulfonyl chloride.

Pharmaceutical Formulations and Administration

The compounds of the invention may be administered to a human or animal patient by a variety of mutes, including orally, parenterally, by inhalation spray, topically, rectally, nasally, buccally, intravenously, intra-muscularly, intra-dermally, subcutaneously or via an implanted reservoir, preferably intravenously. The amount of compound to be administered will vary widely according to the nature of the patient and the nature and extent of the disorder to be treated. Typically the dosage for an adult human will be in the range 50-4800 μg/m2 or μg/kg. The specific dosage required for any particular patient will depend upon a variety of factors, including the patient's age, body weight, general health, sex, etc.


For oral administration, the compounds of the invention can be formulated into solid or liquid preparations, for example tablets, capsules, powders, solutions, suspensions and dispersions. Such preparations are well known in the art as are other oral dosage regimes not listed here. In the tablet form the compounds may be tableted with conventional tablet bases such as lactose, sucrose and corn starch, together with a binder, a disintegration agent and a lubricant. The binder may be, for example, corn starch or gelatin, the disintegrating agent may be potato starch or alginic acid, and the lubricant may be magnesium stearate. For oral administration in the form of capsules, diluents such as lactose and dried corn-starch may be employed. Other components such as colourings, sweeteners or flavourings may be added.


When aqueous suspensions are required for oral use, the active ingredient may be combined with carriers such as water and ethanol, and emulsifying agents, suspending agents and/or surfactants may be used. Colourings, sweeteners or flavourings may also be added.


The compounds may also be administered by injection in a physiologically acceptable diluent such as water or saline. The diluent may comprise one or more other ingredients such as ethanol, propylene glycol, an oil or a pharmaceutically acceptable surfactant. In one preferred embodiment, the compounds are administered by intravenous injection, where the diluent comprises an aqueous solution of sucrose, L-histidine and a pharmaceutically acceptable surfactant, e.g. Tween 20.


The compounds may also be administered topically, including as a spray particularly for some animal indications such as mastitis. Carriers for topical administration of the compounds include mineral oil, liquid petrolatum, white petrolatum, propylene glycol, polyoxyethylene, polyoxypropylene compound, emulsifying wax and water. Some teat spray formulations for treating mastitis may include glycerol and one or more surfactants in addition to other carriers. The compounds may be present as ingredients in lotions or creams, for topical administration to skin or mucous membranes. Such creams may contain the active compounds suspended or dissolved in one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. Suitable carriers include mineral oil, sorbitan monostearate, polysorbate 60, cetyl ester wax, cetearyl alcohol, 2-octyldodecanol, benzyl alcohol and water.


The compounds may further be administered by means of sustained release systems. For example, they may be incorporated into a slowly dissolving tablet or capsule.


The compounds of the invention may also be administered in combination with other antimicrobial compounds such as chlorhexidine, iodine, lactic acid, cetrimide, BZK (benzylalkonium chloride), amoxicillin, erythromycin, cloxacillin, pirlimycin, cephapirin, hetacillin and penicillin, and bacteriocins such as nisin and lacticin. Such combinations may administered in any form including teat sprays for bovine cows and other animals.


Further, the compounds of the invention may be used alone or in combination with other active ingredients in external or internal teat seal formulations. Teat seals provide a physical barrier to prevent bacteria accessing the teat or udder of a cow. External teat seals provide a barrier across the entrance to the teat canal. The end of each teat is dipped in a teat seal formulation after milking has ended. The seal then dries to provide a film that prevents entry of bacteria to the teat canal. Internal teat seals are typically pastes that are infused into each quarter of a cow's udder at the start of the drying off period. The paste forms an internal physical barrier to bacteria entering the teat canal. Many internal teat seal formulations comprise bismuth sub-nitrate and a heavy metal salt such as barium sulfate, often formulated as gels which solidify after administration. One example is TEATSEAL™.


Proposed Mechanism of Action

The applicant does not wish to be bound by theory, but proposes that mechanism of killing of bacteria by a compound of the invention is three-fold. Firstly, the compound is able to translocate zinc into the bacterial cytoplasm (inside the bacterial cell). Accumulation of zinc overcomes the zinc homeostatic apparatus of the bacterial cells, leading to cell death through zinc toxicity. Secondly, the compounds exert their effect in a bacterial-specific manner as an ionophore by depolarising the proton motive force (pmf). Finally, zinc-chelation by the compound in the external media limits the amount of bio-available zinc, leading to extracellular zinc starvation of the bacterium.


It is thought that zinc ionophores translocate protons (H+) in exchange for metal ions (M+) across cell membranes (FIG. 1). When the external pH is higher than the acid dissociation constant (pKa) of the ionophore, the ionophore is predominately deprotonated, and able to form an ionophore-metal complex (MI). When the pH is lower than the pKa of the ionophore, the metal ion is released as the ionophore becomes protonated (HI). Depending on the properties of the ionophore, they can accumulate in the membrane as shown in FIG. 1, or are able to diffuse through the membrane into extracellular or intracellular spaces.


Summary of Biological Data

All quinoline sulfonamide compounds synthesised to date have been examined for their inhibitory properties against the three-major mastitis-causing microorganisms in New Zealand, these being S. uberis, S. aureus, or E. coli. Minimum inhibitory concentrations were determined, initially in the absence of any additional zinc (above that contained in the media), and with an additional 50 μM zinc (zinc sulfate). MIC data is summarised in Table 1. In addition to the inhibitory activity of the quinoline sulfonamide compounds, specific compounds were assessed for their ability to kill mastitis-causing microorganisms as shown in Table 2. It is anticipated that the bacterial strains potentially inhibited by compounds of the invention include other members of the Enterobactericeae, Staphylococcaceae, and Streptococcaceae families.


Any reference to prior art documents in this specification is not to be considered an admission that such prior art is widely known or forms part of the common general knowledge in the field.


As used in this specification, the words “comprises”, “comprising”, and similar words, are not to be interpreted in an exclusive or exhaustive sense. In other words, they are intended to mean “Including, but not limited to”.


The invention is further described with reference to the following examples. It will be appreciated that the invention as claimed is not intended to be limited in any way by these examples.

Example 214: Antibacterial Susceptibility and Synergy Determination Methods

Antibacterial susceptibility testing was performed in triplicate (biological) by measuring minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) by broth microdilution in 96-well flat bottom microtiter plates (ThermoFisher Scientific, New Zealand). S. uberis ATCC 19436, S. aureus ATCC 6538, or E. coli ATCC 10596 cells grown overnight were diluted to an OD600 of approximately 0.025, so that the final concentration of cells in the MIC assay was approximately 5×105 cfu/mL in media as follows: S. uberis; Todd Hewitt Broth (THB), S. aureus; Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB) and Cation Adjusted Muller Hinton Broth (CAMHB), and E. coli; Lysogeny Borth (LB) and CAMHB, before being dispensed into microtiter wells. As required additional sterile Zinc Sulphate (Heptahydrate) was supplemented into the media, so the final concentration was 50 μM. Test compounds were added to starting wells and two-fold serial dilutions were undertaken to generate a range of inhibitor concentrations at a final volume of 200 μl. Media and test compound-free (untreated) controls were included in each microtiter plate in triplicate. After 24 h incubation at 37° C. and 200 rpm, the OD600 of wells were read using a Varioskan Flash plate reader (ThermoFisher Scientific, New Zealand). The MIC was reported as the lowest concentration of the test compound for which no growth occurred, as determined by OD600 readings. The minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) was determined using the Miles-Misra drop-plate method to measure the viability of cells in response to test compound challenge.


The MIC and MBC data are shown in Tables 1 and 2.
