Abstract
The present invention relates to certain substituted oxadiazole, thiadiazole and triazole peptoids which are useful as inhibitors of serine proteases including human neutrophil elastase, equivalently known as human leukocyte elastase.
Description

The present invention relates to certain substituted oxadiazole, thiadiazole and triazole peptoids which are useful as inhibitors of serine proteases including human neutrophil elastase, equivalently known as human leukocyte elastase.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Human neutrophil elastase (HNE) is a proteolytic enzyme secreted by polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) in response to a variety of inflammatory stimuli. This release of HNE and its extracellular proteolytic activity are highly regulated and are normal, beneficial functions of PMNs. The degradative capacity of HNE, under normal circumstances, is modulated by relatively high plasma concentrations of .alpha..sub.1 -proteinase inhibitor (.alpha..sub.1 -PI). However, stimulated PMNs produce a burst of active oxygen metabolites, some of which (hypochlorous acid for example) are capable of oxidizing a critical methionine residue in .alpha..sub.1 -PI. Oxidized .alpha..sub.1 -PI has been shown to have limited potency as an HNE inhibitor and it has been proposed that alteration of this protease/antiprotease balance permits HNE to perform its degradative functions in localized and controlled environments.
Despite this balance of protease/antiprotease activity, there are several human disease states in which a breakdown of this control mechanism is implicated in the pathogenesis of the condition. Improper modulation of HNE activity has been suggested as a contributing factor in adult respiratory distress syndrome, septic shock and multiple organ failure. A series of studies also have indicated the involvement of PMNs and neutrophil elastase in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. Humans with below-normal levels of .alpha..sub.1 -PI have an increased probability of developing emphysema. HNE-mediated processes are implicated in other conditions such as arthritis, periodontal disease glomerulonephritis, dermatitis, psoriasis, cystic fibrosis, chronic bronchitis, atherosclerosis, alzheimers disease, organ transplantation, corneal ulcers, and invasion behavior of malignant tumors.
There is a need for effective inhibitors of HNE as therapeutic and as prophylactic agents for the treatment and/or prevention of elastase-mediated problems.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The principal object of the present invention is to provide certain new compounds which are useful as serine protease inhibitors, including human neutrophil elastase. These compounds are characterized by their relatively low molecular weight, high potency and selectivity with respect to HNE. They can be used effectively to prevent, alleviate or otherwise treat disease states characterized by the degradation of connective tissue by proteases in humans.

The oxadiazoles of the present invention have been found to be potent inhibitors of the serine protease human neutrophil elastase (HNE). These compounds can be regarded as reversible inhibitors that presumably form a transition state intermediate with the active site serine residue. These oxadiazoles can be characterized by their low molecular weights, high selectivity with respect to HNE and stability regarding physiological conditions. Therefore, these compounds can be implemented to prevent, alleviate and/or otherwise treat diseases which are mediated by the degradative effects associated with the presence of HNE. Their usage is of particular importance as they relate to various human treatment in vivo but may also be used as a diagnostic tool in vitro.
As described above, R.sub.3 may also be a moiety which contributes to the oral activity of the compound. Techniques for conferring oral activity onto a compound are well known in the art. By way of example only, R.sub.3 may be chosen from Formulas II-VI, described below ##STR9## where X.sub.1 is N or CH; X.sub.2 is a group of the formula: ##STR10## where W is H, or alkyl straight chained or branched; X.sub.3 is Ala, bAla, Leu, lle, Val, Nva, bVal, Met, or Nle or an N-methyl derivative or a bond; and X.sub.4 is an amino acid consisting of proline, isoleucine, leucine, cylohexylalaline, cysteine optionally substituted at the sulfur with alkyl, alkenyl, being linear or branched or phenyl optionally substituted with halogen, cyano, nitro, haloalkyl, amino, aminoalkyl, dialkylamino, alkyl, alkoxy, haloalkoxy, carboxyl, carboalkoxy, alkylcarboxamide, arylcarboxamide, alkylthio, haloalkylthio groups being linear or branched, a phenylalanine, indoline-2-carboxylic acid, tetrahydroisoquinoline-2-carboxylic acid optionally substituted with alkyl, alkenyl, haloalkenyl, alkynyl being linear or branched, halogen, cyano, nitro, haloalkyl, amino, aminoalkyl, dialkylamino, alkoxyl, haloalkoxy, carbonyl, carboalkoxy, alkylcarboxamide, arylcarboxamide, alkylthio, or haloalkylthio group being linear or branched, tryptophan, valine, norvaline, norleucine, octahydroindole-2-carboxylic acid, lysine optionally substituted with alkylcarboxy or arylcarboxy, glycine optionally substituted at the nitrogen with alkyl, cycloalkyl, phenyl, bicycloalkyl, heteroaryl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl alkyl, bicycloalkyl alkyl, alkoxyalkyl, alkylthioalkyl, alkylaminoalkyl, fused aryl-cycloalkyl alkyl, fused heteroarylcycloalkyl, dialkylaminoalkyl, carboxyalkyl or alkoxycarbonyl alkyl.

Another important embodiment of the invention is the provision of novel intermediates of the Formula (B) as follows: ##STR14## where T is a strong acid that will protonate the free amine and X, Y, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are as defined above.
Methods for synthesizing the above mentioned R.sub.3 constituents are described in EPA 0 529 568 Al (Formula II); U.S. Pat. No. 5,055,450 (Formula III-V); EPA 0 528 633; Warner et at., J. Med. Chem., 37:3090-3099 (1994); Damewood et al., J. Med. Chem., 37:3303-3312 (1994); Bernstein et al., J. Med. Chem., 37:3313-3326 (1994)(Formula VI).
The compounds of the present invention are not limited to use for inhibition of human elastase. Elastase is a member of the class of enzymes known as serine proteases. This class also includes, for example, the enzymes chymotrypsin, cathepsin G, trypsin and thrombin. These proteases have in common a catalytic triad consisting of Serine-195, Histidine-57 and Aspartic acid-102 (chymotrypsin numbering system). The precise hydrogen bond network that exists between these amino acid residues allows the Serine-195 hydroxyl to form a tetrahedral intermediate with the carbonyl of an amide substrate. The decomposition of this intermediate results in the release of a free amine and the acylated enzyme. In a subsequent step, this newly formed ester is hydrolyzed to give the native enzyme and the carboxylic acid. It is this carboxyl component that helps characterize the specificity for the enzyme. In the example in which the carboxyl component is a peptide, the alpha-substituent of the amino acid is predominately responsible for the specificity toward the enzyme. Utilizing the well accepted subsite nomenclature by Schechter and Berger (Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 27:157(l967) and Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 32:898 (1968), the amino acid residues in the substrate that undergo the cleavage are defined as P.sub.1 . . . P.sub.n toward the N-terminus and P.sub.1 ' . . . P.sub.n ' toward the C-terminus. Therefore, the scissile bond is between the P.sub.1 and the P.sub.1 ' residue of the peptide subunits. A similar nomenclature is utilized for the amino acid residues of the enzyme that make up the binding pockets accommodating the subunits of the substrate. The difference is that the binding pocket for the enzyme is designated by S.sub.1 . . . S.sub.n instead of P.sub.1 . . . P.sub.n as for the substrate (FIG. 4).
The characteristics for the P.sub.1 residue defining serine proteinase specificity is well established (see Table 1). The proteinases may be segregated into three subclasses: elastases, chymases and tryptases based on these differences in the P.sub.1 residues. The elastases prefer small aliphatic moieties such as valine whereas the chymases and tryptases prefer large aromatic hydrophobic and positively charged residues respectively.
One additional proteinase that does not fall into one of these categories is prolyl endopeptidase. The P.sub.1 residue defining the specificity is a proline. This enzyme has been implicated in the progression of memory loss in Alzheimer's patients. Inhibitors consisting of a-keto heterocycles have recently been shown to inhibit prolyl endopeptidase; Tsutsumi et. al., J. Med. Chem. 37: 3492:3502 (1994). By way of extension, .alpha.-keto heterocycles as defined by Formula I allow for an increased binding in P' region of the enzyme.

Since the P.sub.1 residue predominately defines the specificity of the substrate, the present invention relates to P.sub.1 -P.sub.n modifications, specifically, certain alpha-substituted keto-heterocycles composed of 1,3,4 oxadiazoles, 1,2,4-oxadiazoles, 1,3,4-thiadiazoles, 1,2,4-thiadiazoles, 1-substituted, and 4-substituted 1,2,4-triazoles. By altering the alpha-substituent and the substituent on the heterocycle, the specificity of these compounds can be directed toward the desired proteinase (e.g., small aliphatic groups for elastase).
The efficacy of the compounds for the treatment of various diseases can be determined by scientific methods which are known in the art. The following are noted as examples for HNE mediated conditions:
for acute respiratory distress syndrome, the method according to Human neutophil elastase (HNE) model (AARD 141:227-677 (1990), or the Endotoxin induced acute lung injury model in minipigs (AARD 142:782-788 (1990)) may be used;
in ischemia/reperfusion, the method according to the canine model of reperfusion injury (J.Clin.Invest. 81:624-629 (1988)) may be used.
The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions containing a compound of the formula herein and the process of synthesis which include the intermediates for the manufacturing of the invention.
The compounds of the present invention may be preferably formulated into suitable pharmaceutical preparations such as tablets, capsules or elixirs, for oral administration or in sterile solutions or suspensions for parenteral administration. They can be administered to patients (human and animals) in need of such treatment in a dosage range of 5 to 500 mg per patient generally given several times, thus giving a total daily dose of from 5 to 2000 mg per day. The dose will vary depending on severity of disease, weight of patient and other factors.
The compounds may be formulated into pharmaceutical compositions by compounding 10 to 500 mg of a compound or mixture thereof or of a physiologically acceptable salt with a physiologically acceptable vehicle, carrier, excipient, binder, preservative, stabilizer, flavor, etc., in a unit dosage form as called for by accepted pharmaceutical practice. The amount of active substance in these compositions or preparations is such that a suitable dosage in the range indicated is obtained.
Illustrative of the adjuvants which may be incorporated in tablets, capsules and the like are the following: a binder such as gum tragacanth, acacia, corn starch or gelatin; an excipient such as micro-crystaline cellulose; a disintegrating agent such as corn starch, pregelantinized starch, alginic acid and the like; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate; a sweetening agent such as sucrose, lactose or saccharin; a flavoring agent such as peppermint, oil of wintergreen or cherry. When the dosage unit form is a capsule, it may contain in addition to materials of the above type, a liquid carrier such as fatty oil. Various other materials may be present as coatings or to otherwise modify the physical form of the dosage unit. For instance, tablets may be coated with shellac, sugar or both. A syrup or elixir may contain the active compound, sucrose as a sweetening agent, methyl and propyl parabens as preservatives, a dye and a flavoring such as cherry or orange flavor.
Sterile compositions for injection can be formulated according to conventional pharmaceutical practice by dissolving or suspending the active substance in a vehicle such as water for injection, a naturally occurring vegetable oil like sesame oil, coconut oil, peanut oil, cottonseed oil, etc., or a synthetic fatty vehicle like ethyl oleate or the like. Buffers, preservatives, antioxidants and the like can be incorporated as required. Pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds of this invention can also be administered topically. This can be accomplished by simply preparing a solution of the compound to be administered, preferably using a solvent known to promote transdermal absorption such as ethanol or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) with or without other excipients. Preferably topical administration will be accomplished using a patch either of the reservoir and porous membrane type or of a solid matrix variety.
Some suitable transdermal devices are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,742,951, 3,742,951, 3,797,494, 3,996,934, and 4,031,894. These devices generally contain a backing member which defines one of its face surfaces, an active agent permeable adhesive layer defining the other face surface and at least one reservoir containing the active agent interposed between the face surfaces. Alternatively, the active agent may be contained in a plurality of microcapsules distributed throughout the permeable adhesive layer. In either case, the active agent permeable adhesive, 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.
In another device for transdermally administering the compounds in accordance with the present invention, the pharmaceutically active compound is contained in a matrix from which it is delivered in the desired gradual, constant and controlled rate. The matrix is permeable to the release of the compound through diffusion or microporous flow. The release is rate controlling. Such a system, which requires no membrane is described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,921,636. At least two types of release are possible in these systems. Release by diffusion occurs when the matrix is non-porous. The pharmaceutically effective compound dissolves in and diffuses through the matrix itself. Release by microporous flow occurs when the pharmaceutically effective compound is transported through a liquid phase in the pores of the matrix.
While the invention has been described in connection with specific embodiments thereof, it will be understood that it is capable of further modifications and this application is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of the invention following, in general, the principles of the invention and including such departures from the present disclosure as come within known or customary practice within the art to which the invention pertains and as may be applied to the essential features hereinbefore set forth, and as follows in the scope of the appended claims.
EXAMPLES
The compounds of the present invention, salts thereof, and their intermediates can be prepared or manufactured as described herein or by various process known to be present in the chemical art. By way of an example, the final step in the process defined herein necessitates an oxidation of a 20 alcohol to the ketone in Formula I. As described here, this transformation from alcohol to ketone was utilized by way of the procedure of N-chlorosuccimide (NCS) and dimethylsulfide followed by treatment with base. However, alternative methods are known to perform a similar conversion that include dimethylsulfoxide and oxalyl chloride followed by base and 1,1,1-triacetoxy-1,-dihydro-1,2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one (Dess-Martin's Periodinane), to mention two. Other methods may also be appropriate as described in Oxidation in Organic Chemistry by Milos Hudlicky, ACS Monograph 186 (1990).
By way of further example, the R.sub.2 group is introduced by the appropriate selection of the chiral amino alcohol, either commercially available or prepared by methods available to one skilled in the art by way of reduction of the natural or unnatural amino acid. The amino alcohol is selectively protected allowing for the alcohol to be converted to the corresponding aldehyde. By way of an alternative process, an amino protected aldehyde may be obtained by a reductive method of an amide made from the desired nitrogen protected amino acid and N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine as described by Winreb (Tetrahedron Lett. 22:3815 (1981). The aldehyde is subsequently allowed to react with acetone cyanohydrin to give the amino protected cyanohydrin (see FIG. I). The cyanohydrin may also be prepared by a standard method using sodium or potassium cyanide. Alternatively, trimethylsilylcyanide may be used to effect the same conversion from aldehyde to cyanohydrin after acidic workup of the O-trimethylsilylcyanohydrin intermediate. The next step is the protection of the cyanohydrin's alcohol followed by the conversion of the nitrile to the amide oxime through the use of hydroxylamine. This intermediate allows for the incorporation the R.sub.1 group into the heterocycle through the reaction of the amide oxime amine with an activated R.sub.1 carboxylic acid. The carboxylic acid may be activated by way of an acid chloride or floride, anhydride or an active ester with the requirements of the appropriate activation dictated by the R.sub.1 group. The resulting N-acylated amide oxime can be either isolated or allowed to proceed in the cyclization when subjected to elevated temperatures. If the N-acylated amide oxime is isolated it can be characterized and subsequently cyclized in a separate step to the 1,2,4-oxadiazole (see FIG. II).
In an anticipated analogy, the 1,2,4-triazole is envisioned by the reaction of an N-substituted hydrazine with the nitrile described herein. After acylation at either available nitrogen, the resulting intermediate is allowed to form the 1,3,5-tri-substituted-1,2,4-triazole (Formula I, Y=substituted N and X=N) under conditions similar to that required for the 1,2,4-oxadiazole.
As described in FIG. III, the alcohol and amine are deprotected by methods available to one skilled in the art and the resulting amine is then subsequently coupled to the desired R.sub.3 carboxylic acid. The final step, as mentioned herein, is the conversion of the 2.degree. alcohol to the ketone. This oxidation can be performed by a number of methods with one such method being the use of the intermediate resulting from the reaction between NCS and dimethyl sulfide with the 2.degree. alcohol followed by base. This process affords the ketone and preserves the stereochemistry of the neighboring R.sub.2 group.

EXAMPLE XVIII
Stability studies (CE-2039, CE-2048 and CE-2049)
Stability of compounds in human plasma was determined as follows. Human plasma was obtained from two male and two female volunteers and previously stored frozen. Plasma was "spiked" with the compounds to a concentration of 0.025 nM. Samples were incubated 0, 3, and 6 hours at 37.degree.. At each point protein was precipitated by addition of acetonitrile made 0.1N HCl (3 parts of solution per part of sample). Samples were subjected to centrifugation (15-20 min at 14,000 rpm) and analyzed (200 .mu.L) with reverse-phase HPLC using a 18-90% acetonitrile gradient in 0.1% TFA.
EXAMPLE XIX
K.sub.i Values
Enzyme was added to a mixture of nitroanilide substrate and inhibitor. The rate of aminolysis declined quickly to the steady-state level (V.sub.S). Nitroaniline release from the substrate was monitored at 400-410 nm in an HP-5482 diode-array spectrophotometer. The Ki .sup.app values were calculated by a non-linear regression analysis program (ENZFITTER, Elsevier-Biosoft) using the following equations:
V.sub.S =V.sub.0 /(1+�I!/K.sub.i.sup.app)
K.sub.i.sup.app =K.sub.i (1=�S!/K.sub.m)
where �I! and �S! are the concentrations of inhibitor and substrate, respectively, V.sub.0 and V.sub.S are the velocities of aminolysis in the absence and presence of inhibitor, respectively, K.sub.i.sup.app K.sub.i are apparent and true inhibition constants, respectively, and K.sub.m is the Michaelis constant. The inhibition assays were performed in 0.05M sodium phosphate, 0.1M NaCl, 0.005% Triton X-100, 5% DMSO, pH 7.6. The chromogenic substrates were: MeOSuc-�Lys(pic)Ala-Pro-Val!-pNA �(SEQ ID NO:3)! MeOSuc-�Ala-Ala-Pro-Val!-pNA �(SEQ ID NO:4)!.
