Substituted pyrimidinyl derivatives and methods of use

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] This invention is in the field of pharmaceutical agents and specifically relates to compounds, compositions, uses and methods for treating cancer and related disorders.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Phosphoryl transferases are a large family of enzymes that transfer phosphorous-containing groups from one substrate to another. Kinases are a class of enzymes that function in the catalysis of phosphoryl transfer. The protein kinases constitute the largest subfamily of structurally related phosphoryl transferases and are responsible for the control of a wide variety of signal transduction processes within the cell. Almost all kinases contain a similar 250-300 amino acid catalytic domain. The protein kinases may be categorized into families by the substrates they phosphorylate (e.g., protein-tyrosine, protein-serine/threonine, etc.). Protein kinase sequence motifs have been identified that generally correspond to each of these kinase families. Lipid kinases (e.g. PI3K) constitute a separate group of kinases with structural similarity to protein kinases.

[0004] The “kinase domain” appears in a number of polypeptides which serve a variety of functions. Such polypeptides include, for example, transmembrane receptors, intracellular receptor associated polypeptides, cytoplasmic located polypeptides, nuclear located polypeptides and subcellular located polypeptides. The activity of protein kinases can be regulated by a variety of mechanisms. It must be noted, however, that an individual protein kinase may be regulated by more than one mechanism. These mechanisms include, for example, autophosphorylation, transphosphorylation by other kinases, protein-protein interactions, protein-lipid interactions, protein-polynucleotide interactions, ligand binding, and post-translational modification.

[0005] Protein and lipid kinases regulate many different cell processes including, but not limited to, proliferation, growth, differentiation, metabolism, cell cycle events, apoptosis, motility, transcription, translation and other signaling processes, by adding phosphate groups to targets such as proteins or lipids. Phosphorylation events catalyzed by kinases act as molecular on/off switches that can modulate or regulate the biological function of the target protein. Phosphorylation of target proteins occurs in response to a variety of extracellular signals (hormones, neurotransmitters, growth and differentiation factors, etc.), cell cycle events, environmental or nutritional stresses, etc. Protein and lipid kinases can function in signaling pathways to activate or inactivate, or modulate the activity of (either directly or indirectly) the targets. These targets may include, for example, metabolic enzymes, regulatory proteins, receptors, cytoskeletal proteins, ion channels or pumps, or transcription factors. Uncontrolled signaling due to defective control of protein phosphorylation has been implicated in a number of diseases and disease conditions, including, for example, inflammation, cancer, allergy/asthma, disease and conditions of the immune system, disease and conditions of the central nervous system (CNS), cardiovascular disease, dermatology, and angiogenesis.

[0006] Initial interest in protein kinases as pharmacological targets was stimulated by the findings that many viral oncogenes encode structurally modified cellular protein kinases with constitutive enzyme activity. These findings pointed to the potential involvement of oncogene related protein kinases in human proliferative disorders. Subsequently, deregulated protein kinase activity, resulting from a variety of more subtle mechanisms, has been implicated in the pathophysiology of a number of important human disorders including, for example, cancer, CNS conditions, and immunologically related diseases. The development of selective protein kinase inhibitors that can block the disease pathologies and/or symptoms resulting from aberrant protein kinase activity has therefore generated much interest.

[0007] Protein kinases represent a large family of proteins which play a central role in the regulation of a wide variety of cellular processes, maintaining control over cellular function. A partial list of such kinases includes abl, AKT, bcr-abl, Blk, Brk, Btk, c-kit, c-met, c-src, CDK1, CDK2, CDK3, CDK4, CDK5, CDK6, CDK7, CDK8, CDK9, CDK10, cRaf1, CSFir, CSK, EGFR, ErbB2, ErbB3, ErbB4, Erk, Fak, fes, FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3, FGFR4, FGFR5, Fgr, flt-1, Fps, Frk, Fyn, Hck, IGF-1R, INS-R, Jak, KDR, Lck, Lyn, MEK, p38, PDGFR, PIK, PKC, PYK2, ron, tie, tie2, TRK, Yes, and Zap70. Inhibition of such kinases has become an important therapeutic target.

[0008] A major feature of malignant cells is the loss of control over one or more cell cycle elements. These elements range from cell surface receptors to the regulators of transcription and translation, including the insulin-like growth factors, insulin growth factor-I (IGF-1) and insulin growth factor-2 (IGF-2). [M. J. Ellis, “The Insulin-Like Growth Factor Network and Breast Cancer”, Breast Cancer, Molecular Genetics, Pathogenesis and Therapeutics, Humana Press 1999]. The insulin growth factor system consists of families of ligands, insulin growth factor binding proteins, and receptors. A major physiological role of the IGF-1 system is the promotion of normal growth and regeneration, and overexpressed IGF-1R can initiate mitogenesis and promote ligand-dependent neoplastic transformation. Furthermore, IGF-1R plays an important role in the establishment and maintenance of the malignant phenotype.

[0009] IGF-1R exists as a heterodimer, with several disulfide bridges. The tyrosine kinase catalytic site and the ATP binding site are located on the cytoplasmic portion of the beta subunit.

[0010] Unlike the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor, no mutant oncogenic forms of the IGF-1R have been identified. However, several oncogenes have been demonstrated to affect IGF-1 and IGF-1R expression.

[0011] The correlation between a reduction of IGF-1R expression and resistance to transformation has been seen. Exposure of cells to the mRNA antisense to IGF-1R RNA, prevents soft agar growth of several human tumor cell lines.

[0012] Apoptosis is a ubiquitous physiological process used to eliminate damaged or unwanted cells in multicellular organisms. Disregulation of apoptosis is believed to be involved in the pathogenesis of many human diseases. The failure of apoptotic cell death has been implicated in various cancers, as well as autoimmune disorders. Conversely, increased apoptosis is associated with a variety of diseases involving cell loss such as neurodegenerative disorders and AIDS. As such, regulators of apoptosis have become an important therapeutic target. It is now established that a major mode of tumor survival is escape from apoptosis. IGF-1R abrogates progression into apoptosis, both in vivo and in vitro. It has also been shown that a decrease in the level of IGF-1R below wild-type levels causes apoptosis of tumor cells in vivo. The ability of IGF-1R disruption to cause apoptosis appears to be diminished in normal, non-tumorigenic cells.

[0348] Definitions

[0349] The term “prevention” includes either preventing the onset of disorders altogether or delaying the onset of a preclinically evident stage of disorders in individuals. This includes prophylactic treatment of those at risk of developing a disease, such as a cancer, for example. “Prophylaxis” is another term for prevention.

[0350] A “pharmaceutically-acceptable derivative “denotes any salt, ester of a compound of this invention, or any other compound which upon administration to a patient is capable of providing (directly or indirectly) a compound of this invention, or a metabolite or residue thereof, characterized by the ability to treat neoplasia.

[0351] The phrase “therapeutically-effective” is intended to qualify the amount of each agent, which will achieve the goal of improvement in disorder severity and the frequency of incidence over treatment of each agent by itself, while avoiding adverse side effects typically associated with alternative therapies. For example, effective neoplastic therapeutic agents prolong the survivability of the patient, inhibit the rapidly-proliferating cell growth associated with the neoplasm, or effect a regression of the neoplasm.

[0352] The term “H” denotes a single hydrogen atom. This radical may be attached, for example, to an oxygen atom to form a hydroxyl radical.

[0406] The invention relates to inhibitors of enzymes that catalyze phosphoryl transfer and/or that bind ATP/GTP nucleotides, compositions comprising the inhibitors, and methods of using the inhibitors and inhibitor compositions. The inhibitors and compositions comprising them are useful for treating or modulating disease in which phosphoryl transferases, including kinases, may be involved, symptoms of such disease, or the effect of other physiological events mediated by phosphoryl transferases, including kinases. The invention also provides for methods of making the inhibitor compounds and methods for treating diseases in which one or more phosphoryl transferase, including kinase, activities is involved.

[0408] The present invention comprises a process for the preparation of a compound of Formula I-VI.

[0409] Compounds of the present invention can possess, in general, one or more asymmetric carbon atoms and are thus capable of existing in the form of optical isomers as well as in the form of racemic or non-racemic mixtures thereof. The optical isomers can be obtained by resolution of the racemic mixtures according to conventional processes, e.g., by formation of diastereoisomeric salts, by treatment with an optically active acid or base. Examples of appropriate acids are tartaric, diacetyltartaric, dibenzoyltartaric, ditoluoyltartaric, and camphorsulfonic acid and then separation of the mixture of diastereoisomers by crystallization followed by liberation of the optically active bases from these salts. A different process for separation of optical isomers involves the use of a chiral chromatography column optimally chosen to maximize the separation of the enantiomers. Still another available method involves synthesis of covalent diastereoisomeric molecules by reacting compounds of the invention with an optically pure acid in an activated form or an optically pure isocyanate. The synthesized diastereoisomers can be separated by conventional means such as chromatography, distillation, crystallization or sublimation, and then hydrolyzed to deliver the enantiomerically pure compound. The optically active compounds of the invention can likewise be obtained by using active starting materials. These isomers may be in the form of a free acid, a free base, an ester or a salt.

[0410] Compounds of the present invention can possess, in general, tautomeric forms, which are included in the family of compounds in Formula I-VI.

[0411] Also included in the family of compounds of Formula I-VI are the pharmaceutically-acceptable salts thereof. The term “pharmaceutically-acceptable salts” embraces salts commonly used to form alkali metal salts and to form addition salts of free acids or free bases. The nature of the salt is not critical, provided that it is pharmaceutically-acceptable. Suitable pharmaceutically-acceptable acid addition salts of compounds of Formula I-VI may be prepared from an inorganic acid or from an organic acid. Examples of such inorganic acids are hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydroiodic, nitric, carbonic, sulfuric and phosphoric acid. Appropriate organic acids may be selected from aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic, arylaliphatic, heterocyclic, carboxylic and sulfonic classes of organic acids, example of which are acetic, adipic, algenic, anthranilic, ascorbic, aspartic, benzoic, benzenesulfonic, butyric, camphoric, camphorsulfonic, citric, cyclopentanepropionic, cyclohexylaminosulfonic, digluconic, dodecylsulfonic, ethanesulfonic, formic, fumaric, galactaric, galacturonic, glycolic, gluconic, glucuronic, glucoheptanoic, glutamic, glycerophosphonic, heptanoic, hexanoic, 4-hydroxybenzoic, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonic, β-hydroxybutyric, lactic, malic, maleic, mandelic, mesylic, methanesulfonic, nicotinic, 2-naphthalenesulfonic, oxalic, palmoic, pectinic, pivalic, persulfuric, 2-phenylpropionic, picric, pyruvic, propionic, phenylacetic, embonic (pamoic), cyclopentane proprionic, pantothenic, toluenesulfonic, salicylic, sulfanilic, stearic, succinic, tartaric, thiocyanic, and undecanoic.

[0412] Suitable pharmaceutically-acceptable base addition salts of compounds of Formula I-VI include metallic salts, such as salts made from alkali metals and alkaline earth metals including, for example, aluminum, calcium, lithium, magnesium, potassium, sodium and zinc, or salts made from organic bases including primary, secondary and tertiary amines, substituted amines including cyclic amines, such as caffeine, arginine, diethylamine, N-ethyl piperidine, histidine, glucamine, isopropylamine, lysine, morpholine, N-ethyl morpholine, piperazine, piperidine, ammonia, triethylamine, trimethylamine. All of these salts may be prepared by conventional means from the corresponding compound of the invention by reacting, for example, the appropriate acid or base with the compound of Formula I-VI.

[0413] Also, the basic nitrogen-containing groups can be quaternized with such agents as lower alkyl halides, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl chloride, bromides and iodides; dialkyl sulfates like dimethyl, diethyl, dibutyl, and diamyl sulfates, long chain halides such as decyl, lauryl, myristyl and stearyl chlorides, bromides and iodides, aralkyl halides like benzyl and phenethyl bromides, and others. Water or oil-soluble or dispersible products are thereby obtained.

[0414] Additional examples of such salts can be found in Berge et al., J. Pharm. Sci., 66, 1 (1977).

[0415] Combinations of substituents and variables envisioned by this invention are only those that result in the formation of stable compounds. The term “stable”, as used herein, refers to compounds which possess stability sufficient to allow preparation.

[0416] As used herein, the compounds of this invention, including the compounds described herein, are defined to include pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives or prodrugs thereof.

[0417] Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of this invention include those derived from pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic and organic acids and bases. Other acids, such as oxalic, while not in themselves pharmaceutically acceptable, may be employed in the preparation of salts useful as intermediates in obtaining the compounds of the invention and their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts. This invention also envisions the quaternization of any basic nitrogen-containing groups of the compounds disclosed herein. Water or oil-soluble or dispersible products may be obtained by such quaternization.

[0418] The invention relates to a process for making a compound of any of the formulas described herein, comprising reacting a pyrimidine of one or more of the formulas:

[0419] with an appropriate nucleophilic agent or agents, wherein the groups in said formulas are as defined herein.

[0420] The invention also relates to a process for making a compound of any of the formulas described herein, comprising reacting a pyrimidine of one or more of the formulas:

GENERAL SYNTHETIC PROCEDURES

[0422] The compounds of the invention can be synthesized according to the following procedures of Schemes 1-8, wherein the substituents are as defined for Formulas I-VI, above, except where further noted.

[0423] Monoamine substituted pyrimidines 2 can be prepared according to the method set out in Scheme 1. 2,4-Dichloropyrimidine 1 is coupled with heteroarylamines, in the presence of base, such as NaH, and a solvent, such as DMF or THF, at a temperature of about 0° C. to about RT to give (2-chloro-pyrimidin-4-yl)amine 2.

[0424] Alternatively, 2,4-dichloropyrimidine 1 is coupled with an amine in the presence of NaOt-Bu, in a solvent, such as t-BuOH, at a temperature about RT to yield monoamine-substituted pyrimidines 2.

[0425] Monoamine substituted pyrimidines 2 are reacted with an amine having an active hydrogen, such as R2NH2, in solvent, such as acetone and water, and in the presence of acid, such as conc. HCl, to give the diamine substituted pyrimidine 3.

[0426] Alternatively, the reaction can be performed in a solvent such as IPA or DMSO, with or without DIEA or in a solvent such as IPA or DMSO with or without Et3N•TFA, or in a solvent such as HOAc.

[0427] Preferably the reaction is heated, more preferably at a temperature of about >50° C., even more preferably at a temperature of about 90-100° C.

[0428] Heteroaryloxy substituted pyrimidines 2 can be prepared according to the method set out in Scheme 3. 2,4-Dichloropyrimidine 1 is coupled with heteroaryl alcohols, in the presence of base, such as Na2CO3, and a solvent, such as EtOH, at a temperature of about 0° C. to about RT to give 2-chloropyrimidin-4-yl ether 4.

[0429] Ether substituted pyrimidines 4 are reacted with an amine having an active hydrogen such as R2NH2, in a solvent such as DMSO, to give the amine/ether substituted pyrimidine 5.

[0430] Preferably the reaction is heated, more preferably at a temperature of about >50° C., even more preferably at a temperature of about 90-100° C.

[0431] Heteroarylthio substituted pyrimidines 6 can be prepared according to the method set out in Scheme 5. 2,4-Dichloropyrimidine 1 is coupled with heteroaryl thiols, in the presence of base, such as Na2CO3, and a solvent, such as EtOH, at a temperature of about 0° C. to about RT to give 2-chloro-pyrimidin-4-yl thioether 6.

[0432] Thioether substituted pyrimidines 6 are reacted with an amine having an active hydrogen such as R2NH2, in a solvent such as DMSO, to give the amine/thioether substituted pyrimidine 7.

[0433] Preferably the reaction is heated, more preferably at a temperature of about >50° C., even more preferably at a temperature of about 90-100° C.

[0434] Tertiary-amine substituted pyrimidines 8 can be prepared reacted with alkyl halides, in the presence of base, such as NaH, and a solvent, such as DMF, at a temperature of about 0° C. to about RT to give (2-chloro-pyrimidin-4-yl)amine 8.

[0435] Monoamine substituted pyrimidines 8 are reacted with a heterocyclic group having an active hydrogen such as R2NH2, such as in solvent, such as acetone and water, and in the presence of acid, such as conc. HCl, to give the diamine substituted pyrimidine 9.

[0436] Alternatively, the reaction can be performed in a solvent such as IPA or DMSO, with or without DIEA or in a solvent such as IPA or DMSO with or without Et3N•TFA, or in a solvent such as HOAc.

[0437] Preferably the reaction is heated, more preferably at a temperature of about >50° C., even more preferably at a temperature of about 90-100° C.

[0438] If one or more other functional groups, for example carboxy, hydroxy, amino, or mercapto, are or need to be protected in a compound of Formulas I-VI, because they should not take part in the reaction, these are such groups as are usually used in the synthesis of peptide compounds, and also of cephalosporins and penicillins, as well as nucleic acid derivatives and sugars.

[0439] The protecting groups may already be present in precursors and should protect the functional groups concerned against unwanted secondary reactions, such as acylations, etherifications, esterifications, oxidations, solvolysis, and similar reactions. It is a characteristic of protecting groups that they lend themselves readily, i.e. without undesired secondary reactions, to removal, typically by solvolysis, reduction, photolysis or also by enzyme activity, for example under conditions analogous to physiological conditions, and that they are not present in the end-products. The specialist knows, or can easily establish, which protecting groups are suitable with the reactions mentioned above and hereinafter.

[0440] The protection of such functional groups by such protecting groups, the protecting groups themselves, and their removal reactions are described for example in standard reference works, such as J. F. W. McOmie, “Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry”, Plenum Press, London and New York 1973, in T. W. Greene, “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, Wiley, New York 1981, in “The Peptides”; Volume 3 (editors: E. Gross and J. Meienhofer), Academic Press, London and New York 1981, in “Methoden der organischen Chemie” (Methods of organic chemistry), Houben Weyl, 4th edition, Volume 15/1, Georg Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart 1974, in H.-D. Jakubke and H. Jescheit, “Aminosäuren, Peptide, Proteine” (Amino acids, peptides, proteins), Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, Deerfield Beach, and Basel 1982, and in Jochen Lehmann, “Chemie der Kohlenhydrate: Monosaccharide und Derivate” (Chemistry of carbohydrates: monosaccharides and derivatives), Georg Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart 1974.

[0441] In the additional process steps, carried out as desired, functional groups of the starting compounds which should not take part in the reaction may be present in unprotected form or may be protected for example by one or more of the protecting groups mentioned above under “protecting groups”. The protecting groups are then wholly or partly removed according to one of the methods described there.

[0442] Salts of a compound of formula I with a salt-forming group may be prepared in a manner known per se. Acid addition salts of compounds of formula I may thus be obtained by treatment with an acid or with a suitable anion exchange reagent. A salt with two acid molecules (for example a dihalogenide of a compound of formula I) may also be converted into a salt with one acid molecule per compound (for example a monohalogenide); this may be done by heating to a melt, or for example by heating as a solid under a high vacuum at elevated temperature, for example from 130 to 170° C., one molecule of the acid being expelled per molecule of a compound of formula I.

[0443] Salts can usually be converted to free compounds, e.g. by treating with suitable basic agents, for example with alkali metal carbonates, alkali metal hydrogen carbonates, or alkali metal hydroxides, typically potassium carbonate or sodium hydroxide.

[0444] All process steps described here can be carried out under known reaction conditions, preferably under those specifically mentioned, in the absence of or usually in the presence of solvents or diluents, preferably such as are inert to the reagents used and able to dissolve these, in the absence or presence of catalysts, condensing agents or neutralizing agents, for example ion exchangers, typically cation exchangers, for example in the H+ form, depending on the type of reaction and/or reactants at reduced, normal, or elevated temperature, for example in the range from about −100° C. to about 190° C., preferably from about −80° C. to about 150° C., for example at about −80 to about 60° C., at RT, at about −20 to about 40° C. or at the boiling point of the solvent used, under atmospheric pressure or in a closed vessel, where appropriate under pressure, and/or in an inert atmosphere, for example, under argon or nitrogen.

[0445] Salts may be present in all starting compounds and transients, if these contain salt-forming groups. Salts may also be present during the reaction of such compounds, provided the reaction is not thereby disturbed.

[0446] In certain cases, typically in hydrogenation processes, it is possible to achieve stereoselective reactions, allowing for example easier recovery of individual isomers.

[0447] The solvents from which those can be selected which are suitable for the reaction in question include, for example, water, esters, typically lower alkyl-lower alkanoates, e.g. EtOAc, ethers, typically aliphatic ethers, e.g. Et2O, or cyclic ethers, e.g. THF, liquid aromatic hydrocarbons, typically benzene or toluene, alcohols, typically MeOH, EtOH, IPA or 1-propanol, nitrites, typically CH3CN, halogenated hydrocarbons, typically CH2Cl2, acid amides, typically DMF, bases, typically heterocyclic nitrogen bases, e.g. pyridine, carboxylic acids, typically lower alkanecarboxylic acids, e.g. AcOH, carboxylic acid anhydrides, typically lower alkane acid anhydrides, e.g. acetic anhydride, cyclic, linear, or branched hydrocarbons, typically cyclohexane, hexane, or isopentane, or mixtures of these solvents, e.g. aqueous solutions, unless otherwise stated in the description of the process.

[0448] The invention relates also to those forms of the process in which one starts from a compound obtainable at any stage as a transient and carries out the missing steps, or breaks off the process at any stage, or forms a starting material under the reaction conditions, or uses said starting material in the form of a reactive derivative or salt, or produces a compound obtainable by means of the process according to the invention and processes the said compound in situ. In the preferred embodiment, one starts from those starting materials which lead to the compounds described above as preferred.

[0449] The compounds of formula I-VI, including their salts, are also obtainable in the form of hydrates, or their crystals can include for example the solvent used for crystallization (present as solvates).

[0450] New starting materials and/or intermediates, as well as processes for the preparation thereof, are likewise the subject of this invention. In the preferred embodiment, such starting materials are used and reaction conditions so selected as to enable the preferred compounds to be obtained.

[0451] Starting materials of the invention, are known, are commercially available, or can be synthesized in analogy to or according to methods that are known in the art.

[0452] In the preparation of starting materials, existing functional groups which do not participate in the reaction should, if necessary, be protected. Preferred protecting groups, their introduction and their removal are described above or in the examples.

[0453] All remaining starting materials are known, capable of being prepared according to known processes, or commercially obtainable; in particular, they can be prepared using processes as described in the examples.

[0454] The following examples contain detailed descriptions of the methods of preparation of compounds of Formulas I-VI. These detailed descriptions fall within the scope, and serve to exemplify, the above described General Synthetic Procedures which form part of the invention. These detailed descriptions are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not intended as a restriction on the scope of the invention.

[0455] The compounds of this invention may contain one or more asymmetric centers and thus occur as racemates and racemic mixtures, scalemic mixtures, single enantiomers, individual diastereomers and diastereomeric mixtures.

EXAMPLE 100

[0578]

N2-(3-(2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl)-4-(methoxyphenyl)-N4-(3-quinolinyl)-2,4-pyrimidinediamine

[0579] Step A

[0580] 2-Bromomethyl-1-methoxy-4-nitro-benzene (25 g) was dissolved in warm EtOH (45 mL) and stirred while slowly adding a solution of NaCN (6.0 g in 12 mL water) at 70° C. After the addition was complete, the reaction was stirred at 70° C. for 90 min. The inorganic solid, which separated on cooling, was collected and washed well with CH3CN. The CH3CN filtrate was filtered again giving further inorganic solid, and again washed with CH3CN. The final CH3CN filtrate was evaporated giving a red-brown solid. This solid was triturated with CH2Cl2 until the washings were colorless. Evaporation of the CH2Cl2 filtrate gave (2-methoxy-5-nitrophenyl)-acetonitrile as a red-brown solid, which was used without further purification.

[0581] Step B

[0582] The crude (2-methoxy-5-nitrophenyl)-acetonitrile (Step A) was stirred and heated with 20 mL of 12 M HCl at reflux for 3 h and then at 60° C. overnight. After cooling, the product was extracted into CH2Cl2 (3×40 mL), washed with water then extracted into 3M NaOH. The basic extracts were washed with CH2Cl2, acidified (6M HCl) and the solid was collected, washed well with water and dried in air giving pure 2-(2-methoxy-5-nitrophenyl)acetic acid. Evaporation of the CH2Cl2 extracts and retreating the residual solid with 50 mL of 12M HCl/20 mL water under reflux for 6 h followed by purification as above gave additional pure 2-(2-methoxy-5-nitrophenyl)acetic acid.

[0583] Step C

[0584] 2-(2-Methoxy-5-nitrophenyl)acetic acid (17.1 g, 1 eq, Step B), EDC (18.6 g, 1.2 eq.), Et3N (9.8 g, 13.6 mL, 1.2 eq) and dimethylamine hydrochloride (7.9 g, 1.2 eq.) in 150 mL of CH2Cl2 were stirred together with exclusion of air overnight. CH2Cl2 (150 mL) was added and the mixture was washed twice with 1M HCl, twice with 1M NaOH, water and brine. Removal of the solvent under reduced pressure followed by silica gel chromatography (90:10 CH2Cl2:EtOAc) afforded pure 2-(2-methoxy-5-nitrophenyl)-N,N-dimethyl-acetamide as a white solid.

[0585] Step D

[0586] 2-(2-Methoxy-5-nitrophenyl)-N,N-dimethyl-acetamide (15.0 g, Step C) was added to 126 mL of 1M BH3-THF (2 eq.) under N2 and the resulting mixture was heated at reflux. After 2 h, additional BH3-THF was added (120 mL) followed by 0.2 mL of boron trifluoride etherate and heating was continued for 13 h. Evaporation and azeotroping the residue from MeOH 3× gave a semi-solid residue which was washed with MeOH and filtered to give the boric acid salt of [2-(2-methoxy-5-nitrophenyl)-ethyl]-dimethyl-amine as a white solid.

[0587] Step E

[0588] To a solution of [2-(2-methoxy-5-nitrophenyl)-ethyl]-dimethyl-amine (1.0 g, Step D) dissolved in EtOH (20 mL) was added 10% Pd/C (0.1 g). The reaction vessel was capped with a rubber septum and H2 gas was introduced through a balloon/needle. The reaction was stirred vigorously overnight at RT, and which time it was filtered through sand/Celite®. Concentration of the crude mixture provided a beige oil which was purified by chromatography on silica gel (97:3 CH2Cl2:MeOH) to afford pure 3-(2-dimethylamino-ethyl)-4-methoxy-phenylamine as a white solid.

[0589] Step F

[0590] The title compound was prepared from the corresponding amine prepared in Step E in a manner similar to that described for Example 87 to give the desired product as a tan solid. M+H-415; Calc'd for C24H26N6O-414.

[0780] A mixture of potassium 2,6-dimethoxy-4-nitrophenoxide (Step B, 3.3 g, 13.9 mmol), K2CO3 (5.8 g, 41.8 mmol), NaI (0.21 g, 1.39 mmol), and 1-bromo-2-chloroethane (11.6 mL, 139 mmol) in CH3CN (50 mL) was stirred and heated under reflux under N2 for 40 h when the color had turned pale brown. Filtration, washing the solids well with CH3CN and evaporating the filtrate gave 3,5-dimethoxy-4-(2-chloroethoxy)nitrobenzene as a pale brown solid.

[0781] Step D

[0782] A mixture of 3,5-dimethoxy-4-(2-chloroethoxy)-nitrobenzene (Step C, 3.25 g, 12.5 mmol), N-methylpiperazine (4.14 mL, 37.4 mmol) and K2CO3 (4.30 g, 31.2 mmol) in CH3CN (50 mL) was stirred and heated under reflux under N2 for 18 h. The mixture was filtered and solids were washed well with CH2Cl2. The filtrate was evaporated giving a brown oil which was purified by silica gel chromatography (9:1 CH2Cl2:MeOH) giving an orange-brown gum which solidified slowly.

[0783] Step E

[0784] 3,5-Dimethoxy-4-(2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)ethoxy)-aniline was obtained by hydrogenation of the product of Step D over Pd/C (5%) in EtOH.

[0785] Step F

[0786] A 3-neck round bottom flask was charged with NaH (60% dispersion in mineral oil, 0.41 g, 10.1 mmol, 1.2 eq.) under N2. The mineral oil was removed by stirring in n-heptane (3×10 mL) and decanting the supernatant liquid. The NaH was suspended in anhydrous THF (20 mL) and cooled to 0° C. A solution of 2-(2,6-dimethylphenylamino)-1H-benzimidazole (2.0 g, 8.4 mmol) in anhydrous THF (15 mL) was added slowly and the reaction was stirred at 0° C. for 0.5 h. A solution of 2,4-dichloropyrimidine (1.89 g, 12.7 mmol, 1.5 eq.) in anhydrous THF (15 mL) was added and the reaction was stirred at 0° C. for 0.5 h under N2, then warmed to RT and stirred for 18 h. The reaction was diluted with CH2Cl2 and sat. aq. NaHCO3. The organic layer was separated, dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was taken up into IPA and triturated with 1M HCl in Et2O (16 mmol). The resulting precipitate was separated by filtration and rinsed with n-heptane and n-heptane/EtOAc (1:1) to yield off-white crystals of a mixture of regioisomers as the HCl salts. The salts were suspended in hot CH3CN and filtered. The solids, a mixture of regioisomers, was taken up into CH2Cl2 and free-based with sat. aq. NaHCO3. The organic layer was dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo to afford a fluffy white solid. The solids were dissolved in CH2Cl2, adsorbed onto silica and purified by column chromatography (silica; n-heptane:EtOAc; 4:1). The product fractions were combined and the solvent removed in vacuo to afford 2-(N-(2-chloropyrimid-4-yl)-2,6-dimethylphenylamino)-1H-benzimidazole as a white solid. MS m/z=350 (M+H). Calc'd for C19H40N8O3=349.

[0787] Step G

[0788] A pressure tube was charged with a solution of 2-(N-(2-chloropyrimid-4-yl)-2,6-dimethylphenylamino)-1H-benzimidazole (50 mg, 0.14 mmol), 3,5-dimethoxy-4-[2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-ethoxy]phenylamine (42 mg, 0.14 mmol) in glacial AcOH (2 mL). The reaction, a dark brown solution, was heated to 100° C. for 18 h. The reaction was cooled to RT and then basified by careful addition of 5M NaOH (15 mL). The aqueous solution was extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined organic extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica; CH2Cl2:MeOH; 8:2) to afford the title compound as a light purple solid. MS m/z=609 (M+H). Calc'd for C34H40N8O3=608.

N4-(1H-Benzimidazo-2-yl)-N2-{3,4-dimethoxy-5-[2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-ethoxy]-phenyl}-N4-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-pyrimidine-2,4-diamine

[0790] Step A

[0791] 2,3-Dimethoxyphenol (25.0 g, 0.162 mol) was dissolved in 1 L of acetone and K2CO3 (16.4 g, 0.119 mol) was added under N2. Benzyl bromide (31.0 mL, 0.261 mol) was added followed by more (200 mL) acetone. The mixture was heated and stirred under reflux for 48 h. Filtration and evaporation gave a red oil. Purification by flash chromatography, eluting first with 80:20 then 50:50 hexane:EtOAc gave pure yellow material.

[0792] Step B

[0793] 1-Benzyloxy-2,3-dimethoxybenzene (10 g, 40.9 mmol) and AcOH (20 mL) were stirred under N2 and cooled to 5° C. while adding fuming HNO3 (3 mL, 72.4 mmol) dropwise over 10 min. The temperature rose to 60° C. Stirring was continued at 5° C. for 1 h. The mixture was poured into ice/water and the oil was extracted into EtOAc (4×150 mL). The extracts were washed with 2M NaOH (100 mL) then brine and dried. Evaporation gave a dark red oil. Treatment with EtOAc and hexane followed by flash chromatography, eluting with 50:50 hexane:EtOAc containing 0.1% TEA gave a yellow oil which on further treatment with EtOAc/hexane gave a fluffy yellow solid.

[0794] Step C

[0795] A mixture of 1-benzyloxy-2,3-dimethoxy-5-nitrobenzene (4.96 g, 17.1 mmol) was stirred in TFA (13.5 mL) at 20° C. overnight. Evaporation of the solvent gave a dark solid, which was triturated with toluene to give a yellow-green solid. Evaporation of the filtrate and trituration with toluene/hexane afforded additional material.

[0796] Step D

[0797] A mixture of 2,3-dimethoxy-5-nitrophenol (1.069 g, 5.37 mmol), 1-bromo-2-chloroethane (4.44 mL, 53.3 mmol) and K2CO3 (1.84 g, 13.3 mmol) in CH3CN (15 mL) was stirred and heated under reflux under N2 for 41 h when the suspension was nearly colorless. Filtration, washing the solids with CH3CN, evaporating the filtrate and dissolving the yellow solid in CH2Cl2 (3×30 mL) gave an extract which was washed with brine, dried and evaporated giving a yellow solid.

[0798] Step E

[0799] A mixture of 1-(2-chloroethoxy)-2,3-dimethoxy-5-nitrobenzene (1.382 g, 5.28 mmol), K2CO3 (1.83 g, 13.2 mmol), and N-methylpiperazine (1.76 mL, 15.85 mmol) was stirred and heated under N2 in CH3CN (20 mL) under reflux overnight. The next day 0.80 g K2CO3 and 0.66 mL piperazine were added (1.1 eq.) and heated for 3 h more when HPLC showed that the reaction was complete. The solids were filtered and washed well with CH3CN and the filtrate was evaporated at 80° C. to remove excess amine. The resulting red oil was dissolved in CH2Cl2 and washed with water. The aqueous layer was washed with CH2Cl2. The combined organic layers were dried and evaporated giving 2,3-dimethoxy-1-(2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)ethoxy)-5-nitrobenzene.

[0800] Step F

[0801] 3,4-Dimethoxy-5-[2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-ethoxy]-phenylamine was obtained by hydrogenation of the product of Step E over Pd/C (5%) in EtOH.

[0802] Step G

[0803] A pressure tube was charged with a solution of 2-(N-(2-chloropyrimid-4-yl)-2,6-dimethylphenylamino)-1H-benzimidazole (50 mg, 0.14 mmol), from Example 155 Step F, 3,4-dimethoxy-5-[2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-ethoxy]-phenylamine (42 mg, 0.14 mmol) in glacial AcOH (2 mL). The reaction, a dark brown solution, was heated to 95° C. for 60 h. The reaction was cooled to RT then basified by careful addition of 5M NaOH (15 mL). The aqueous solution was extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined organic extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and the solvent removed in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica; CH2Cl2:MeOH; 9:1) to afford a light brown solid. MS m/z=609 (M+H). Calc'd for C34H40N8O3=608.

[0805] Step A

[0806] 4-Piperidine-methanol was dissolved in methylformate at 0° C. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 30 min then warmed to 20° C. and stirred 90 min. Solid NaOH was added (0.87 g, pellets) and the mixture was stirred for 16 h. CH2Cl2 was added, the NaOH removed, and the solution was treated with 1M HCl in Et2O (10 mL). Filtration of the mixture over Celite yielded a yellow-orange oil.

[0807] Step B

[0808] A mixture of (1-formylpiperidin-4-yl)methanol (1.13 g, 7.89 mmol), 4-nitroguaiacol (2.0 g, 11.8 mmol) and polymer-supported Ph3P (ca. 3 mmol/g, 3.94 g, 11.8 mmol) in anhydrous THF (30 mL) was cooled to 0° C. and treated with DIAD (2.33 mL, 11.8 mmol) dropwise. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 30 min then at 20° C. overnight. The resin was filtered, and washed with CH2Cl2 then MeOH and the filtrate was evaporated giving deep orange oil. This was taken up in CH2Cl2, washed with 2M NaOH, 2M HCl then brine, dried and evaporated giving a pale brown oil. This was taken up in 50:50 EtOAc:Hexane, and filtered through Celite. The filtrate was evaporated, taken up in EtOAc and washed with 1M NaOH. The solution was dried, evaporated and the residue was purified by column chromatography (50:50 EtOAc:Hexane to remove impurities. Product was eluted with 9:1 CH2Cl2:MeOH to give a yellow oil which crystallized on standing.

[0809] Step C

[0810] A suspension of the 4-(1-formylpiperidin-4-yl)methoxy-3-methoxynitrobenzene (1.24 g, 4.2 mmol) in THF (5 mL) under N2 was stirred while adding BH3•THF (1M solution in THF, 8.4 mL, 8.4 mmol) then heated to 60° C. for 2 h. Further BH3 solution was added (to a total of 5 eq.) together with 20 mL THF. The mixture was heated at reflux until disappearance of starting material. The reaction was cooled and MeOH (25 mL) was added carefully followed by CH2Cl2. The crude reaction mixture was washed with brine, 2M NaOH (4×) dried and evaporated. The residue was dissolved in MeOH, a few drops of AcOH added and heated under reflux for 3 days. Evaporation and chromatography in 9:1 CH2Cl2:MeOH containing 1% TEA afforded a brown solid.

[0822] Although the pharmacological properties of the compounds of Formulas I-VI vary with structural change, in general, activity possessed by compounds of Formulas I-VI may be demonstrated in vivo. The pharmacological properties of the compounds of this invention may be confirmed by a number of pharmacological in vitro assays. The exemplified pharmacological assays which follow have been carried out with the compounds according to the invention and their derivatives.

BIOLOGICAL EVALUATION

[0823] Kinase Inhibition

[0824] The compounds described herein are screened in the following manner. Kinases suitable for use in the following protocol to determine kinase activity of the compounds described herein include, but are not limited to: Lck, Lyn, Src, Fyn, Syk, Zap-70, Itk, Tec, Btk, EGFR, ErbB2, Kdr, Flt-1, Flt-3, Tek, c-Met, InsR, and AKT.

[0825] Kinases are expressed as either kinase domains or full length constructs fused to glutathione S-transferase (GST) or polyHistidine tagged fusion proteins in either E. coli or Baculovirus-High Five expression systems. They are purified to near homogeneity by affinity chromatography essentially as previously described (Lehr et al., 1996; Gish et al., 1995). In some instances, kinases are co-expressed or mixed with purified or partially purified regulatory polypeptides prior to measurement of activity.

[0826] Kinase activity and inhibition are measured essentially by established protocols (Braunwalder et al., 1996). Briefly, the transfer of 33PO4 from ATP to the synthetic substrates poly(Glu, Tyr) 4:1 or poly(Arg, Ser) 3:1 attached to the bioactive surface of microtiter plates serves as the basis to evaluate enzyme activity. After an incubation period, the amount of phosphate transferred is measured by first washing the plate with 0.5% phosphoric acid, adding liquid scintillant, and then counting in a liquid scintillation detector. The IC50 is determined by the concentration of compound that causes a 50% reduction in the amount of 33P incorporated onto the substrate bound to the plate.

[0827] Other similar methods whereby phosphate is transferred to peptide or polypeptide substrate containing tyrosine, serine, threonine, or histidine, either alone, in combination, or in combination with other amino acids, in solution or immobilized (i.e., solid phase) are also useful. For example, transfer of phosphate to a peptide or polypeptide can also be detected using scintillation proximity (Wu et al., 2000), ELISA (Cleaveland et al., 1990), Fluorescence Polarization (Seethala and Menzel, 1998), and homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF, Kolb et al., 1998). Alternatively, kinase activity can be measured using antibody-based methods whereby an antibody or polypeptide is used as a reagent to detect phosphorylated target polypeptide. Compounds of the present invention showed inhibition of IGF-1R kinase at doses less than 50 μM.

[0828] The compounds of examples 1-2, 4, 6, 8-9, 13-20, 28, 37, 39-41, 48-49, 59, 61-62, 65-66, 69, 71-72, 75-76, 84, 91-92, 94, 98-100, 105, 108-112, 118, 121, 130-131, 133-135, 137-141, 145 and 148-151 inhibited IGF-1R kinase at a level below 50 nM (IC50).

IGF-1R Assay Summary Protocols

[0836] IGF-1-Induced DNA Synthesis.

[0837] Human tumor cell lines or a rat fibroblast cell line are plated out in flat-well plates in complete medium and allowed to adhere overnight. The cells are then starved in medium containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) overnight, pre-incubated for 1 h with or without dilutions of compound, then activated overnight with 50 ng/mL insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1). Proliferation is determined by the level of 3H-thymidine incorporation into DNA. IC50's are determined by comparing the level of thymidine incorporation found in the presence of compound compared to controls.

[0838] The compounds of examples 1, 14, 20, 48-49, 59, 84, 91, 94, 98-100, 104-105, 109-110, 118, 130, 132-135, 137, 139-140, and 148-151 inhibited 3T3 proliferation at a level below 150 nM.

[0839] IGF-1R Auto-Phosphorylation.

[0840] Murine fibroblast cells stably transfected with the human IGF-1R are plated out in flat-well plates in complete media and allowed to adhere overnight. The cells are then starved in medium containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin, pre-incubated with or without dilutions of compound, then activated for 5 min with 100 ng/mL IGF-1. The cells are lysed and proteins are separated by SDS-PAGE. The level of phosphotyrosine on IGF-1R β-chain is determined by western blotting with an anti-phospho-IGF-1Rβ-specific antibody. IC50's are determined by comparing the level of phosphotyrosine found in the presence of compound compared to controls.

[0841] Representative compounds tested under the following example protocols exhibit cellular activities consistent with their observed enzyme inhibition activities.

[0842] Formulations

[0843] Also embraced within this invention is a class of pharmaceutical compositions comprising the active compounds of Formula I in association with one or more non-toxic, pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers and/or diluents and/or adjuvants (collectively referred to herein as “carrier” materials) and, if desired, other active ingredients. The active compounds of the present invention may be administered by any suitable route, preferably in the form of a pharmaceutical composition adapted to such a route, and in a dose effective for the treatment intended. The compounds and compositions of the present invention may, for example, be administered orally, mucosally, topically, rectally, pulmonarily such as by inhalation spray, or parentally including intravascularly, intravenously, intraperitoneally, subcutaneously, intramuscularly intrasternally and infusion techniques, in dosage unit formulations containing conventional pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, adjuvants, and vehicles.

[0844] The pharmaceutically active compounds of this invention can be processed in accordance with conventional methods of pharmacy to produce medicinal agents for administration to patients, including humans and other mammals.

[0845] For oral administration, the pharmaceutical composition may be in the form of, for example, a tablet, capsule, suspension or liquid. The pharmaceutical composition is preferably made in the form of a dosage unit containing a particular amount of the active ingredient. Examples of such dosage units were tablets or capsules. For example, these may contain an amount of active ingredient from about 1 to 2000 mg, preferably from about 1 to 500 mg, more preferably from about 5 to 150 mg. A suitable daily dose for a human or other mammal may vary widely depending on the condition of the patient and other factors, but, once again, can be determined using routine methods.

[0846] The amount of compounds which were administered and the dosage regimen for treating a disease condition with the compounds and/or compositions of this invention depends on a variety of factors, including the age, weight, sex and medical condition of the subject, the type of disease, the severity of the disease, the route and frequency of administration, and the particular compound employed. Thus, the dosage regimen may vary widely, but can be determined routinely using standard methods. A daily dose of about 0.01 to 500 mg/kg body weight, preferably between about 0.5 and about 50 mg/kg body weight and most preferably between about 0.1 to 20 mg/kg body weight, may be appropriate may be appropriate. The daily dose can be administered in one to four doses per day.

[0847] For therapeutic purposes, the active compounds of this invention are ordinarily combined with one or more adjuvants appropriate to the indicated route of administration. If administered per os, the compounds may be admixed 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 active compound in hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose.

[0848] In the case of psoriasis and other skin conditions, it may be preferable to apply a topical preparation of compounds of this invention to the affected area two to four times a day.

[0849] Formulations suitable for topical administration include liquid or semi-liquid preparations suitable for penetration through the skin (e.g., liniments, lotions, ointments, creams, or pastes) and drops suitable for administration to the eye, ear, or nose. A suitable topical dose of active ingredient of a compound of the invention is 0.1 mg to 150 mg administered one to four, preferably one or two times daily. For topical administration, the active ingredient may comprise from 0.001% to 10% w/w, e.g., from 1% to 2% by weight of the formulation, although it may comprise as much as 10% w/w, but preferably not more than 5% w/w, and more preferably from 0.1% to 1% of the formulation.

[0850] When formulated in an ointment, the active ingredients may be employed with either paraffinic or a water-miscible ointment base. Alternatively, the active ingredients may be formulated in a cream with an oil-in-water cream base. If desired, the aqueous phase of the cream base may include, for example at Least 30% w/w of a polyhydric alcohol such as propylene glycol, butane-1,3-diol, mannitol, sorbitol, glycerol, polyethylene glycol and mixtures thereof. The topical formulation may desirably 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.

[0851] The compounds of this invention can also be administered by a transdermal device. Preferably transdermal 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.

[0852] 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 a mixture of at least one emulsifier with a fat or an oil or with both a fat and an oil. Preferably, a hydrophilic emulsifier is included together with a lipophilic emulsifier which acts as a stabilizer. It is also preferred to include both an oil and a fat. 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, sodium lauryl sulfate, glyceryl distearate alone or with a wax, or other materials well known in the art.

[0853] The choice of suitable oils or fats for the formulation is based on achieving the desired cosmetic properties, since 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 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 can be used.

[0854] Formulations suitable for topical administration to the eye also include eye drops wherein the active ingredients were dissolved or suspended in suitable carrier, especially an aqueous solvent for the active ingredients. The active ingredients were preferably present in such formulations in a concentration of 0.5 to 20%, advantageously 0.5 to 10% and particularly about 1.5% w/w.

[0855] Formulations for parenteral administration may be in the form of aqueous or non-aqueous isotonic sterile injection solutions or suspensions. These solutions and suspensions may be prepared from sterile powders or granules using one or more of the carriers or diluents mentioned for use in the formulations for oral administration or by using other suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The compounds may be dissolved in water, polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, ethanol, corn oil, cottonseed oil, peanut oil, sesame oil, benzyl alcohol, sodium chloride, tragacanth gum, and/or various buffers. Other adjuvants and modes of administration are well and widely known in the pharmaceutical art.
