Description

This application claims the benefit of U.S. application Ser. No. 60/011,542, filed Feb. 13, 1996 and is a continuation-in-part of that prior application.
This invention relates to new triazine ring containing anionic compounds which are useful in treating viral infections and in particular human respiratory syncytial virus �HRSV!. This invention also relates to methods of treating viral infections and pharmaceutical compositions therefore.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Human respiratory syncytial virus�HRSV! was first discovered in 1956 and is worldwide in distribution. It is an important cause of upper and lower respiratory tract disease causing illness in infants and young children resulting in approximately 100,000 hospitalizations and 5,000 deaths yearly in the United States (Chanock, R. M., Kim, H. K., Brandt, C. D., and Parrott, R. H. 1982. Respiratory syncytial virus, pp 471-489, in Viral Infections of Humans, Second Edition, A. S. Evans, editor (Plenum Press, NY). Glezen, W. P., Taber, L. H., Frank, A. L., and Kasel, J. A., 1986. Risk of primary infection and reinfection with respiratory syncytial virus. Am. J. Dis. Chil. 140;543-546. MacDonald, N. E., Hall, C. B., Suffin, S. C., Alexson, C., Harris, P. J., and Manning J. A. 1982. Respiratory syncytial virus infection in infants with congenital heart disease. New England Journal of Medicine 307;397-400.
About 30 percent of hospitalized young children with acute respiratory disease have respiratory syncytial virus infection. In older children and adults the disease is milder. HRSV appears to also be a major cause (equivalent to influenza) of morbidity and mortality in the elderly. (Fleming, D. M. and Cross, K. W. 1993. Respiratory syncytial virus or influenza? Lancet 342;1507-1510.). Infections with respiratory syncytial virus are referable to all segments of the respiratory tract, are usually associated with fever, cough, runny nose, and fatigue, and are diagnosed clinically as bronchitis, bronchiolitis, pneumonia, croup, or viral infection. In older children and adults the virus is generally limited to replication in the upper respiratory tract. Infants may be more severely involved when the virus extends into the lungs. Lung damage can be permanent.
Primary infection with respiratory syncytial virus occurs early in life, usually before 4 years of age. Among children, illness caused by this virus tends to occur at least once each year in rather sharply defined outbreaks of several months duration. Epidemics are sharply circumscribed, generally for 3 to 5 months. In family studies, children in early school years frequently introduce the virus into the home, infecting younger members of the family more severely than other family members. The clinical consequence of infection is most severe on first experience and becomes milder in older individuals who are immunologically experienced.
The effects of respiratory syncytial virus can range from unapparent infection to severe pneumonia and death. Inflammation of the respiratory track is responsible for most symptoms. Complete recovery in most cases occurs in one to three weeks with the production of antibody which appears to persist throughout life. In the United States about 30 percent of one year old infants and 95 percent of five year old children have circulating respiratory syncytial virus antibody. Reinfection in older infants, children, and adults with antibody gives mostly mild upper respiratory illnesses in the form of colds. In infants and young children, the infection is treated with ribavirin, a broad-spectrum antiviral. Use of this compound is severely limited by toxicity. There is therefore a great need for a new therapeutic agent for the treatment of HRSV infection.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,359,131 teaches sulfonic acid stilbenes which block the infection of cells by herpes simplex virus (HSV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and cytomegalovirus (CMV).
The present invention relates to novel triazine ring anionic compounds which exhibit antiviral activity and in particular human respiratory syncytial virus�HRSV! activity.
This invention relates to new compounds selected from those of the general Formula I: ##STR2## wherein: A is a moiety selected from the group consisting of ##STR3## C' is selected from --SO.sub.3 H, --OSO.sub.3 H, --OH, or --COOH; B' is --NH, NR.sup.1 or O;
R.sup.1 is selected from H, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)lower alkyl, straight or branched, wherein the carbon atoms may be optionally substituted with Cl, Br, F, OH or CN;
X is Cl, F, or the moiety ##STR4## U' is selected from the group of --SO.sub.2, --CO, --NC(O), or --NC(S); W' is selected from the moieties: ##STR5## Y is --(CH.sub.2).sub.n --; n is 0 to 6;

Z is selected from H, CH.sub.3, CF.sub.3, --CH.sub.2 --(halogen), where halogen is Cl, Br, F or I, --CH.sub.2 OH, --COOH, --COO(C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)lower alkyl straight or branched, --CONR.sup.2 R.sup.2, CN or ##STR6## R.sup.2, in each occurrence, is independently selected from H or (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)lower alkyl;
and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts and esters thereof.
It is understood that, in cases where m is 0, five-membered rings would be indicated for W'.

C. to about 55.degree. C. and pH from about 6.5 to about 7.2 followed by heating at from about 100.degree. C. to about 120.degree. C. and pH 6.5-7.2 gives 1. ##STR10##
The stepwise condensation of the starting compounds 2, as shown in Scheme I, and 5 as shown in Scheme II, with triazines 3 where X is Cl, Br or F are reacted similarly in aqueous or organic-aqueous media in the presence of suitable bases such as sodium or potassium hydroxides, carbonates, phosphates or bicarbonates. Phosphate buffer at pH 7.0 is preferred.
The first step of condensation is carried out in pH ranges from about 4 to about 8, preferably at a pH of from about 6.5 to about 7.2 and at temperatures from about -10.degree. to about 30.degree. C., preferably from about -5.degree. to about 5.degree. C. The exchange of the second halogen atom of the triazine derivatives is effected in the same pH range and from about 10.degree. to about 70.degree. C., preferably at a temperature of from about 45.degree. to about 55.degree. C. The exchange of the third halogen atom of the triazine derivatives is effected in the same pH range and at temperatures from about 80.degree. C. to about 150.degree. C., preferably from 100.degree. to 120.degree. C.
The exchange of the second or the third halogen atoms of the triazine derivatives of the Formula 6 (Scheme II) is effected also in organic media in the presence of organic bases, such as trialkylamines, including triethylamine, diisopropylethylamine, or N-(lower)alkylpiperidine.
Starting materials for use in the general synthetic procedures outlined in Schemes I and II are commercially available or can be synthesized according to H. Adkins, E. F. Steinbring, E. Pickering. J. Amer. Chem. Soc., v. 46, p. 1917 (1924), G.B. Pat. No. 1,194,388 (Jun. 10, 1970) and U.S. Pat. No 5,359,131 (Oct. 25, 1994). The starting compounds of Formula 2 wherein B' is oxygen can be prepared from the substituted compound of Formula 2 (B'=--NH.sub.2) as shown in Scheme III. ##STR11##
Primary aromatic amines 7 where A defined previously are reacted with nitrous acid or with other chemical reagents (for example, organic ester of nitrous acid) for diazotization of the primary amine to yield diazonium salts 8 that are hydrolyzed to compounds of Formula 9 containing phenolic groups. ##STR12##
Referring to Scheme IV, the compounds (10) of stilbene series can be transformed to the compounds (11) of bibenzyl series by catalytic reduction conditions (hydrogen--Pd/C) or by related reduction conditions known in the art for converting substituted stilbene compounds into bibenzyl compounds �Huang-Minlon, J.Amer.Chem.Soc. (1948) 70 2802!.
The compounds (12 and 13) of the Formula 1 with Z=--COOH can be prepared by basic hydrolysis to the compounds (14) in the pH ranges from 7.5 to 10.0, preferably 8.0-8.5 and from 80.degree. to 150.degree. C., preferably 100.degree. to 120.degree. C. (Scheme V): ##STR13##
m-Aminobenzamides 17, where U' is --SO2 or --CO, Y and Z are hereinbefore defined, are synthesized according to the Scheme VI. ##STR14##
Imides 15 are transformed into m-nitrosulfonates 16, using a suitable variant of the amidation or tosylation methods (T. W. Greene, P. G. M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry, John Wiley & Sons, New York 1991, pp. 349-379). The nitro-compounds 16 are then reduced to the amino-compounds 17 by catalytic hydrogenation (hydrogen--Pd/C).
Piperazine derivatives 21,22, where Z is --COOH or --CONH.sub.2, are synthesized according to the Scheme VII from 3,5-piperidinedicarboxylic acid 18. Reduction of the aromatic ring and m-nitrotosylation of the piperidine derivative 19 leads to the compound 20, which is either reduced to a carboxyl containing compound 21 or converted into a carbamoyl containing compound 22 by esterification and ammonolysis. ##STR15##

Effects of the compounds in viral yield reduction assays
The compounds were tested for biological activity using viral yield reduction assays. Host cells (indicated as HF for human foreskin fibroblasts and as vero, the commonly used African green monkey cell line, in Tables 1 and 1a) were plated at 4.times.10.sup.4 cells/well in cell growth medium with 2% fetal bovine serum or 2% calf serum in 96-well plates (0.1 ml/well) and incubated overnight. The compounds were added to individual wells to give final concentrations ranging from 50 to 0.1 .mu.g/ml in two-fold concentration steps. After 1 hour, virus was added, and the incubation was continued for 4 days with RSV or CMV and for 2 days with HSV. At the end of the experiment, the amount of virus growth was quantitated and the yield reduction at various concentrations of compound was calculated. This allows estimation of the concentration of compound giving 50% reduction in virus growth (IC.sub.50).
Tables 1 and 1a (a summary of biological activity) summarizes the activity of the compounds in viral yield reduction assays.
Effects of the compounds in viral plague reduction assays
The compounds were tested for the ability to inhibit viral plaque formation. Host cells, as indicated in Tables 1, 1a and 2, are plated at 10.sup.6 cells/well in 6-well plates and incubated overnight. One of two formats was then followed. In the normal (pretreatment) format, the cell growth medium was replaced with 1 ml of medium containing compound at a given concentration. Virus (.about.100 plaque-forming units in 40 .mu.l) was added after 1 hour. After a further hour, the medium was replaced with 4 ml of medium containing compound at the concentration being tested. The cells were then incubated for a time sufficient to allow the formation of viral plaques. Occasionally, compound was added only after the infection had begun (posttreatment). In this case, the growth medium was replaced with 1 ml of medium containing approximately 100 plaque-forming units. After 1 hour, this was replaced with 2 ml of growth medium. After a further period specified in Table 2, a further 2 ml containing compound was added. In either case, the number of plaques in a series of wells containing a range of compound concentrations was compared to the number in a well with no compound, and the IC.sub.50 was determined by graphing the data and identifying the compound concentration giving a 50% reduction in viral plaque number.
Tables 1, 1a and 2 summarize antiviral activity in plaque assays. It can be seen that the title compounds of Examples 1 and 4 are active against all RSV strains tested at approximately 0.1-0.7 .mu.g/ml. Activity can also be seen with certain members of other virus families (in the range 3-20 .mu.g/ml). These results confirm and extend the data from yield reduction assays indicating that these compounds are potent and specific inhibitors of RSV.

For posttreatment, cells were first infected for 1 h and the medium (containing unabsorbed virus) was replaced. Medium containing compound a various concentrations was added at 2 h or 24 h after the end of the infection period. Cells used included vero (African green monkey cells), HF (human foreskin fibroblast cells), SKNSH (human neuroblastoma cells), MDBK (MadinDarby bovine kidney cells), and MDCK (MadinDarby canine kidney cells).
Mechanism of action
The time in the virus life-cycle when Example 1 exerts its effect was determined to increase understanding of the mechanism of action. This was accomplished by adding and removing the compound at various times relative to infection and assessing the effect on viral protein synthesis. Vero cells were infected on ice for 1 hour, unadsorbed virus was removed, and then the infected cells were incubated at 37.degree. C. for 18 hours (virus adsorption will occur on ice, but fusion will not proceed until the temperature is raised to 18.degree. C. or above). After the 18 hour incubation at 37.degree. C. (when the bulk of ongoing protein synthesis was directed by viral RNAs), .sup.35 S-methionine was added for 2 hours, the cells were lysed, and the labeled proteins were analyzed on SDS-PAGE gels. The viral N, P, and M proteins were then evident. If the compound of Example 1 was added at 10 .mu.g/ml immediately after virus adsorption and before raising the incubation temperature to 37.degree. C., viral protein synthesis was fully prevented. However, when the compound of Example 1 was added even after only 5 minutes incubation at 37.degree. C., viral protein production was unimpeded. Therefore, the process inhibited was the fusion process or some closely succeeding step which is required for later viral gene expression.
It is known that RSV-infected cells in close contact will fuse to form syncytia and that this process is dependent only on the viral F, SH, and G proteins (Heminway B. R., Yu Y., Tanaka Y., Perrine K. G., Gustafson E., Bernstein J. M., Galinski M. S. 1994. Analysis of respiratory syncytial virus F, G, and SH proteins in cell fusion. Virology 200;801-805). Syncytium formation should not involve viral functions, such as uncoating or transcription, which normally succeed it and which are required for later viral gene expression.
To determine if the compounds of this invention inhibit fusion or a succeeding step, they were tested for the ability to prevent syncytium formation in cells previously infected with RSV. This was done by infecting vero cells at a multiplicity of infection of 3 for 1 hour, then replacing the original medium with fresh medium. After 6 hours incubation, compound was added. After 24 and 48 hours, the infected cells were examined under the microscope to determine the extent of syncytium formation. Differences in the extent of syncytium formation due to the presence of compound were easily recognized and the compounds were easily ranked in terms of potency in this assay. The actual IC50's as judged by this method are approximate. They were 0.3 and 0.05 .mu.g/ml for compounds 16 and 17, respectively. The ability of these compounds to inhibit syncytium formation demonstrates that they act at the fusion step of the virus life-cycle.
Compounds of Examples 1 and 4 prevent RSV growth in vivo
RSV infection of cotton rats followed by drug delivery by small particle aerosol (SPA) was used to assess a compound's in vivo anti-RSV potential. (Gilbert B. E., Wyde P. R., Wilson S. Z., and Meyerson L. R. 1993. SP-303 small particle aerosol treatment of influenza A virus infection in mice and respiratory syncytial virus infection in cotton rats. Antiviral Research 21;37-45.)
The compounds of the present invention were tested in this system to determine if they can inhibit growth of RSV in cotton rats. In experiment 1 (see Table 3), animals were infected intranasally with RSV A2 (day 0), which results in a respiratory infection. Ribavirin was used at 60 mg/ml in water in the aerosolizing chamber and was administered for 2 hours twice a day on days 1, 2, and 3 after infection. Compound 16 was used at 4.5 mg/ml in 25 mM NaHCO.sub.3 in the aerosolizing chamber and was administered for 4 hours before infection and for 8 hours on each of days 1, 2, and 3. The placebo was water used according to the same regimen as compound 16. The animals were sacrificed on day 4, the lungs were lavaged, and the titers of RSV in the lavages determined. In experiment 2, infected untreated animals and animals exposed to an aerosol of 25 mM NaHCO3 served as controls. The compounds of Examples 1 and 4 were made up at 5 mg/ml in 25 mM NaHCO3. One group was treated with the compound of Example 1 for 4 hours before infection on day 0 and for 8 hours on each of days 1, 2, and 3 (prophylactic regimen). One group was treated with the compound of Example 1 for 8 hours only on each of days 1, 2, and 3 (therapeutic regimen). A final group was treated with the compound of Example 4 for 8 hours on each of days 1, 2, and 3 (therapeutic regimen). On day 4, all animals were sacrificed, the lungs were lavaged, and the titers of RSV in the lavages were determined. In experiment 3, the placebo was water delivered intranasally once a day. The compound of Example 4 was tested by intranasal delivery by dosing before inoculation and 1 day thereafter (days 0 and 1), by dosing before inoculation and on days 1-3, and by dosing only after inoculation on days 1-3. The compound was also tested by dosing intraperitoneally. On day 4, all animals were sacrificed, their lungs were lavaged, and the titers of RSV in the lavages were determined. This was done by determining the dilution end-point which produces cytopathic effect (CPE) in vero cells and also by plaque assay on vero cells. The lungs were also homogenized and the titers of virus in the lungs were determined by centrifuging out particulate material (1000.times.g, 10 minutes) and using dilutions of the supernatants in plaque assays. It can be seen that the compounds of Examples 1 and 4 inhibit RSV in vivo.
