A subject-matter of the invention is the use of quinazolinedione derivatives as medicaments or for manufacturing a medicament intended for the treatment and/or prevention of disorders related to the central nervous system (abbreviated CNS) and/or related to the peripheral nervous system (abbreviated PNS). The invention relates more particularly to the use of quinazolinedione derivatives as medicaments or for manufacturing a medicament intended for the treatment and/or prevention of psychiatric disorder(s) and/or intended for the treatment and/or prevention of neurological disorder(s).
The central nervous system or CNS comprises the brain, the spinal cord and the cranial nerves.
The peripheral nervous system or PNS is the part of the nervous system formed of ganglions and nerves which brings about the movement of information between the organs and the central nervous system or CNS and which carries out the motor commands of the latter. It comprises the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system.
The invention relates to quinazolinedione derivatives which are inhibitors of phosphodiesterase 7 (PDE7). Some of these derivatives also inhibit phosphodiesterase 8 (PDE8).
Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are intracellular enzymes responsible for the hydrolysis of cAMP (cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate) and cGMP (cyclic guanosine 3′,5′-monophosphate) secondary messengers to give inactive 5′-monophosphate nucleotides. cAMP and cGMP play an essential role in cell signalling pathways and are involved in numerous physiological processes.
The inhibition of phosphodiesterases is reflected by an increase in intracellular concentrations of cAMP and cGMP, resulting in the specific activation of phosphorylation pathways involved in varied functional responses. The increase in the intracellular concentrations of cAMP or of cGMP using selective inhibitors of phosphodiesterases appears to be a promising approach in the treatment of various diseases (Bender and Beavo, Pharmacol. Rev., (2006) 58, 488-520). The inhibitors of phosphodiesterases are thus of interest as therapeutic agents and as pharmacological tools.
To date, eleven families of phosphodiesterases have been identified. They are distinguished by their primary structure, their substrate specificity and their sensitivity with regard to various effectors and inhibitors specific for PDEs. Each family is composed of one or more genes which are expressed in various tissues in the form of splicing variants (Bender and Beavo, Pharmacol. Rev., (2006) 58, 488-520; Lugnier, Pharmacol. Therapeut., (2006) 109, 366-398).
PDE4, PDE7 and PDE8 specifically hydrolyse cAMP and PDE5, PDE6 and PDE9 specifically hydrolyse cGMP.
The family PDE7 is represented by the isoforms PDE7A and PDE7B originating from two distinct genes.
Human PDE7A (Michaeli et al., J. Biol. Chem., (1993) 268, 12925-12932; Han et al., J. Biol. Chem., (1997) 272, 16152-16157; Wang et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., (2000) 276, 1271-1277) and human PDE7B (Sasaki et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., (2000), 271, 575-583; Gardner et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., (2000) 272, 186-192) selectively hydrolyse cAMP with Michaelis constants (Km) of 0.1 to 0.2 μM and 0.13 to 0.2 μM respectively. The catalytic part of PDE7B exhibits approximately 67% homology with that of PDE7A.
Three splicing variants are known for PDE7A. PDE7A1 and PDE7A3 are expressed mainly in the cells of the immune system and of the lungs, while PDE7A2 is above all expressed in the muscles of the skeleton, the heart and the kidneys. For PDE7B, three variants have also recently been identified (Giembycz and Smith, Drugs Future, (2006) 31, 207-229).
The tissue distribution profiles for PDE7A and PDE7B are very different, suggesting that these two isoforms have distinct functions from the physiological viewpoint. While PDE7A is copiously expressed in haematopoietic cells, the lungs, the placenta, Leydig cells, the spleen, the collecting tubes of the kidneys, and the adrenal glands, strong expression of PDE7B is detected in the pancreas, the heart, the thyroid and the muscles of the skeleton (Giembycz and Smith, Drugs Future, (2006) 31, 207-229). However, coexpression of the messenger RNAs (mRNAs) of PDE7A and PDE7B is observed in some tissues. This is the case in the osteoblasts (Ahlstrom et al., Cell Mol. Biol. Lett., (2005) 10, 305-319) and in some regions of the brain: several areas of the cortex, the dentate gyrus, the majority of the components of the olfactory system, the striatum, numerous nuclei of the thalamus and the pyramidal cells of the hippocampus (Miro et al., Synapse, (2001) 40, 201-214; Reyes-Irisarri et al., Neuroscience, (2005) 132, 1173-1185). In contrast, in some areas of the brain, only one of the two isoforms is expressed. Thus, only the mRNAs of PDE7A are present in many nuclei of the brain stem. Likewise, the mRNAs of PDE7B are present at high concentrations in the nucleus accombens and the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve, while the mRNAs of PDE7A are not detected there (Miro et al., Synapse, (2001) 40, 201-214; Reyes-Irisarri et al., Neuroscience, (2005) 132, 1173-1185).
The document WO2008/119057 describes a method for the treatment of movement anomalies associated with a neurological movement disorder pathology, such as Parkinson's disease, the treatment method comprising the administration to a patient of an amount of an agent which is an inhibitor of PDE7 which is effective in inhibiting the enzymatic activity of PDE7.
A subject-matter of the present invention is in particular therapeutic applications of quinazolinedione derivatives, which may prove to be powerful inhibitors of PDE7, or of PDE7 and of PDE8, according to the derivatives.

The compounds in accordance with the invention can be prepared by the methods illustrated in the following Schemes 1 to 4.
In that which follows, the term “leaving group” is understood to mean a group which can be easily substituted, with departure of an electron pair, by cleavage of a heterolytic bond. This group can thus be easily replaced by another group, for example during a substitution reaction. Such leaving groups are, for example, halogens or an activated hydroxyl group, such as a mesylate, tosylate, triflate, and the like. Examples of leaving groups and references for their preparation are given in “Advanced Organic Chemistry”, J. March, 3rd Edition, Wiley Interscience, pp. 310-316.
The term “protective group PG” is understood to mean a group which makes it possible to prevent the reactivity of a function group or position during a chemical reaction which may affect it and which restores the molecule after cleavage according to methods known to a person skilled in the art.
The term “temporary protective group for amines or alcohols” is understood to mean the protective groups such as those described in Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, Greene T. W. and Wuts P. G. M., published by Wiley Intersciences, 1999, and in Protecting Groups, Kocienski P. J., 1994, Georg Thieme Verlag.
Mention may be made, for example, of temporary protective groups for amines: benzyls or carbamates (such as tert-butoxycarbonyl, cleavable in an acid medium, or benzyloxycarbonyl, cleavable by hydrogenolysis), temporary protective groups for carboxylic acids: hydrogenolysable alkyl esters (such as methyl or ethyl or tert-butyl esters which can be hydrolysed in a basic or acid medium) and benzyl esters, temporary protective groups for alcohols or phenols, such as tetrahydropyranyl, methyloxymethyl or methylethoxymethyl, tert-butyl and benzyl ethers, or temporary protective groups for carbonyl derivatives, such as linear or cyclic acetals, such as, for example, 1,3-dioxan-2-yl or 1,3-dioxolan-2-yl; and reference may be made to the well known general methods described in Protective Groups, cited above.
A person skilled in the art will be in the position to choose the appropriate protective groups according to the circumstances. The compounds of formula (I) can comprise precursor groups for other functional groups which are generated subsequently in one or more other stages.
In the general synthetic schemes which follow, the starting compounds and the reactants, when their method of preparation is not described, are commercially available or are described in the literature or else can be prepared according to methods which are described therein or which are known to a person skilled in the art.
The pure enantiomers of the compounds in accordance with the invention can be obtained from enantiomerically pure precursors or else by chiral phase chromatography or else, when the compounds comprise acid or amine functional groups, by selective crystallizations of diastereoisomeric salts obtained by reaction of the compounds (I) with chiral amines or chiral acids respectively.
The compounds of general formula (I) can be obtained according to the following Schemes 1 to 4. Out of concern for clarity, the group R4 has been chosen as being a hydrogen, p and p′ represent 1 and 2 respectively and the R2 and R3 groups have been set as indicated in the schemes. However, it is to be understood that R4 can be as defined in the general formula (I), and R2 and R3 can have the positions indicated in the general formula (I) and that p and p′ can be as defined in the general formula (I).
The synthetic routes described below serve solely as illustration and are under no circumstances limiting. A person skilled in the art can apply without difficulty the teaching below to the compounds of formula (I) for which R, R1, R2, R3, R4, Ra, Rb, Rc, m, n, p, p′ and q are as defined in the general formula (I).
According to Scheme 1, the compound of formula (IV) is obtained by a reductive amination reaction by reacting a compound of formula (II), in which R′ represents a (C1-C6)alkyl group and R2 is as defined for the compound of formula (I) with a compound of formula (III) in an acid medium and in the presence of a reducing agent, such as sodium triacetoxyborohydride. The PG group of the compound of formula (III) is a protective group for the amine functional group which may advantageously be tert-butoxycarbonyl (boc). The compound of formula (IV) thus formed is subsequently acylated, according to methods well known to a person skilled in the art, with an alkyl or aryl chloroformate to give the compound of formula (V) in which R″ represents a (C1-C6)alkyl group or an aryl group which is substituted. A hydrolysis reaction in a basic medium makes it possible to obtain the compounds of formula (VI) which, by a coupling reaction with a compound of formula (VII), in which R3 is as defined for the compound of formula (I), results in the compounds of formula (VIII). An intramolecular cyclization reaction in the basic medium makes it possible to obtain the quinazolinedione derivatives of formula (IX). The protective group PG for the amine functional group is subsequently cleaved, for example in acid medium when PG is a boc, to give the compounds of formula (Ia) which give, by an acylation reaction, the compounds of formula (Ib).
The compounds of formula (Ia) are compounds of formula (I) and can act as intermediate for other compounds of formula (I), such as the compounds of formula (Ib).
The compounds of formula (I) for which R2 represents —ORa, Ra being as defined for the compound of formula (I), correspond to the formula (Id). They can be obtained from the compounds of formula (X) according to the following Scheme 2. The compounds of formula (X), obtained by a hydrogenolysis reaction on the compounds of formula (X), are subjected, for example, to an alkylation reaction with an alkylating agent of type Ra—X, in which Ra is as defined for the compound of formula (I) and X represents a leaving group (such as a halogen atom, for example), in the presence of a base, such as caesium carbonate (Cs2CO3), or also to a Mitsunobu reaction (Synthesis, 1981, 1) with an alcohol of type Ra—OH, Ra being as defined for the compound of formula (I), to give compounds of formula (Id).
The compounds of formula (X) and the compounds of formula (Ic) are compounds of formula (I) and can act as intermediate for other compounds of formula (I), such as the compounds of formula (Id).
Alternatively, the compounds of formula (Id) can be obtained by following the procedure described in Scheme 3.
The compounds of formula (XII) are obtained by a nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction involving a compound of formula (XI), in which R′ is as defined above, and an alcohol of type Ra—OH, in which Ra is as defined for the compound of formula (I), in the presence of a base. The reduction of the nitro group of the compounds of formula (XII) results in the corresponding anilino derivatives (XIII). A reductive amination reaction with a compound of formula (III), in which PG is a protective group for amine functional groups, such as, for example, boc, results in the compounds of formula (XIV). The compounds of formula (XV) are obtained by reaction of a compound of formula (XIV) with potassium isocyanate (KNCO) in an acid medium. An intramolecular cyclization reaction in a basic medium makes it possible to obtain the compounds of formula (XVI). The protective group PG is cleaved by methods well known to a person skilled in the art to give the compounds of formula (XVII). An acylation reaction results in the compounds of formula (XVIII). Finally, the compounds of formula (Id) are obtained either by an alkylation reaction with a derivative of type (XIX), in which X represents a leaving group, such as a halogen atom, in the presence of a base, such as, for example, caesium carbonate, or also by a Mitsunobu reaction with a benzyl alcohol of type (XX). In the compounds (XIX) and (XX), R3 is as defined above.
The compounds of formula (Ie) and (If), in which R2 more particularly represents a group of type —CH2—NHC(O)Rb, Rb being defined as in the compound of formula (I), can be prepared according to the following Scheme 4.
It is understood that, in Scheme 3, the R2 group illustrated is of —O—Ra type and is in the 6 position of the quinazolinedione structure (see, for example, compound (XVIII)) but that it is also possible to have a second R2 group, as defined in the general formula (I), in the 7 position of the same quinazolinedione group.
The reduction of the nitro group of the compounds of type (XXI), in which R′ and PG′ are as defined above, the PG′ group advantageously being boc, results in the corresponding anilino derivatives (XXII) which, by a reductive amination reaction in which they react in an acid medium and advantageously in the presence of a reducing agent, such as sodium triacetoxyborohydride, with a compound of formula (III), in which PG represents a benzyloxycarbonyl protective group for amines, give compounds of formula (XXIII). An acylation reaction with an alkyl or aryl chloroformate, in which R″ represents a (C1-C6)alkyl group or an aryl group which is substituted, results in the compounds of formula (XXIV). The quinazolinedione analogues of formula (XXV) can be obtained by a hydrolysis reaction in a basic medium and then by a coupling reaction with a compound of formula (VII), in which R3 is as defined for the compound of formula (I), followed by an intramolecular cyclization reaction in a basic medium. The PG′ group (preferably a boc) is subsequently cleaved in an acid medium to result in the compounds of formula (XXVI) which, by acylation, give compounds of formula (XXVII), in which Rb is as defined for the compound of formula (I). The PG protective group of (XXVII) is cleaved by a hydrogenolysis reaction to give the compounds of formula (Ie). Finally, the compounds of formula (If) are obtained by an acylation reaction on the compounds of formula (Ie).
It is obvious that a person skilled in the art will be in a position to choose, in the light of his knowledge and the literature, other appropriate protective groups which make possible the introduction of all the groups described in the general formula (I).
When the compound of formula (I) comprises a bridged ring, it can be obtained without distinction by one of the synthetic routes described above.

The compounds in accordance with the invention form the subject of pharmacological trials which have shown their advantage as therapeutically active substances.
1) Measurement of the Inhibitory Activity of the Compounds in Accordance with the Invention with Regard to PDE7
The ability of the compounds of formula (I) to inhibit PDE7 is measured using an enzymatic assay based on the separation of radioactive cAMP (substrate of PDE7) from the radioactive 5′-AMP (product of the enzymatic reaction) by thin layer chromatography on polyethyleneimine (PEI) cellulose, after halting the enzymatic reaction. The 5′-AMP is extracted quantitatively from the PEI cellulose and its radioactivity is measured using a liquid scintillation counter.
The inhibitory activity of the compounds of formula (I) with regard to PDE7 is represented by the inhibition constant IC50, defined as the concentration of the compound (inhibitor) tested in the assay which makes it possible to reduce the enzymatic activity of PDE7 by 50%. The lower the IC50 values, the greater the inhibitory power of the compounds.
Materials
The [3H]-cAMP (NET 275; 25 to 40 Ci/mmol) was purchased from Perkin-Elmer (NEN Life Sciences, Boston, United States), the rolipram was purchased from Sigma (St Louis, Mo., United States) and the sheets of polyethyleneimine cellulose F made of plastic for thin layer chromatography were purchased from Merck (Darmstadt, Germany). All the other products used are of commercial origin.
Enzyme
Human PDE7 was partially purified from the HUT-78 cell line by following a method analogous to that described by Bloom and Beavo (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, (1996) 93, 14188-14192). The enzyme preparation obtained is stored at −80° C. in a buffer comprising 20 mM of Tris-HCl (pH 7.0), 5 mM of MgCl2, 4 mM of EDTA, 1 mM of dithiothreitol and 20% of glycerol. As the partially purified PDE7 is contaminated by PDE4, it is necessary to add 10 μM of rolipram (selective inhibitor of PDE4) in the enzymatic assay in order to completely inhibit the PDE4 activity. The Michaelis constant (Km) of PDE7 for cAMP, measured using the radiochemical assay described below, is 21 nM.
Solutions of Compounds in Accordance with the Invention
The compounds of formula (I) to be tested as PDE7 inhibitors are dissolved in DMSO at a concentration of 10 mM. These solutions are subsequently diluted in cascade in DMSO in order to obtain solutions with the desired concentrations. The latter are subsequently diluted to one-twentieth in the assay buffer to give 5% DMSO solutions. The latter are finally diluted to one-fifth in the enzymatic assay.
The solution of rolipram (added in the assay in order to completely inhibit the contaminating PDE4 activity) is prepared in an identical way and contributes 1% of DMSO to the enzymatic assay.
PDE7 Enzymatic Assay
The assay is carried out in 1.5 ml Eppendorf tubes comprising 40 mM of Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 15 mM of MgCl2, 1 mM of EGTA, 0.5 mg/ml of bovine serum albumin, 0.063 μCi of [3H]-cAMP (corresponding to a cAMP concentration of between 15 and 25 nM), 10 μM of rolipram and PDE7 in a final volume of 100 μl. The assay is carried out in the absence (control sample) or in the presence (treated sample) of the compounds tested as PDE7 inhibitors. The final concentration of DMSO in the assay is 2%. The reaction is initiated by addition of enzyme and the samples are maintained at ambient temperature for 30 minutes. The enzymatic dilution is adjusted so as to obtain a degree of conversion of 10 to 15%. The enzymatic reaction is halted by immersion of the stoppered Eppendorf tubes in a water bath at 100° C. for 3 minutes. Blanks (reaction halted immediately after addition of the enzyme) are included in each experiment. The samples are subsequently centrifuged at 10 000×g for 1 minute and an aliquot portion of 10 μl of supernatant is deposited 2 cm from the bottom edge of a sheet of PEI cellulose on which 10 μg of cAMP and 10 μg of 5′-AMP have been deposited beforehand. In order to facilitate the migration and to make it easier to cut out the strips of PEI cellulose comprising the 5′-AMP, which take place subsequently, 18 migration lanes with a width of 1 cm are delimited per plate by scraping the cellulose with a spatula over a width of 1 mm. The plates are developed over their entire length with a 0.30 M solution of LiCl in water by ascending chromatography. The 5′-AMP (Rf=0.20) and the cAMP (Rf=0.47) are visualized under UV light at 254 nm. The strips of PEI cellulose comprising the 5′-AMP are cut out and the nucleotide is quantitatively extracted in counting flasks with 2 ml of a solution which is 16M in formic acid and 2M in ammonium formate in water (rotary stirrer for 15 min). After addition of 10 ml of scintillation liquid (OptiPhase HiSafe 3 from Perkin-Elmer/Wallac), the radioactivity is counted using a liquid scintillation counter (model 1414, Perkin-Elmer/Wallac). Each assay is carried out in duplicate. The radioactivity specifically associated with the 5′-AMP formed in the enzymatic reaction is obtained by subtracting the mean value of blanks from the mean value of the controls (or treated samples).
The percentage of inhibition of PDE7 at a given concentration of the compound tested (inhibitor) is calculated using the equation: I %=[mean value of the controls−mean value of the treated samples]×100/[mean value of the controls−mean value of the blanks].
The IC50 is the concentration of the compound (inhibitor) tested in the assay which makes it possible to reduce the enzymatic activity of PDE7 by 50%.
Results
As illustrative and nonlimiting examples, the following quinazolinediones inhibit PDE7 with the IC50 values indicated below:
2) Measurement of the Inhibitory Activity of the Compounds in Accordance with the Invention with Regard to PDE8
By using for PDE8 an enzymatic assay equivalent to that described for PDE7, the following IC50 values are obtained:
3) Evaluation of the Compounds in Accordance with the Invention in an In Vitro Model of Microglial Activation
The glial cells actively participate in the neurodegenerative mechanism by the production of neurotoxic factors. The production of these mediators forms part of the neuroinflammatory process observed in neurodegenerative diseases and in particular in Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease.
Numerous studies have demonstrated that the inhibition of glial activation and consequently the reduction in the production of proinflammatory factors, such as interleukin-1, released by activated glial cells significantly reduces neuronal degeneration.
The compounds according to the invention have been evaluated in an in vitro model of microglial activation. After activation by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the microglial cells secrete large amounts of interleukin-1, which amounts can be quantified by specific assaying in the cell supernatants.
Cultures of microglial cells of the MG7 line derived from the mouse cortex are incubated in the presence of variable concentrations of compounds according to the invention. After incubating at 37° C. for 1 hour, the cells are brought together with LPS, which induces the production of interleukin-1. After treating for 24 h, the amounts of interleukin-1β are measured in the culture supernatants by ELISA assay.
Compound No. 297 significantly decreases, in a concentration-dependent fashion, the secretion of interleukin-1β by MG7 microglial cells activated by LPS. The maximum inhibitory effect observed is 47% at 3 μM.
