Description

This is a 371 application of PCT/JP 95/01574 filed on Aug. 8, 1995.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a triazine derivative useful as a medicine.
BACKGROUND ART
Hepatitis is etiologically classified into viral hepatitis (hepatitis A, B, and C, multiple infection hepatitis, etc.), toxic hepatitis (e.g. drug-induced), and autoimmune hepatitis.
Among them there are hepatitis which frequently follows a subchronic to chronic course (acute hepatitis C) and refractory hepatitis characterized by recurrent episodes of acute exacerbation and ultimate progression to cirrhosis (chronic hepatitis B) . There also is hepatitis which follows a precipitating course, that is fulminant hepatitis.
The treatment of hepatitis includes, in addition to the general therapy for encouraging the mechanism of cure based on rest and diet therapy, antiviral therapy which is instituted for inhibiting growth of the causative virus in cases of viral hepatitis and immunotherapy for potentiating the compromised cellular immunity of the host. The liver drugs available are liver hydrolyzate, glycyrrhizin, reduced glutathione, tiopronin, and polyenephosphatidylchloline, among others. As antiviral aagents, interferons, arabinosyladenine (Ara--A), arabinosyladenosine monophosphate (Ara--AMP), acyclovir, etc. are used. As immunoregulators, glucocorticoids, interleukin-2, picibanil (OK-432), cianidanol, levamisol, etc. are used. Interferons have immunological actions in addition to antiviral activity. Prostaglandin E is known to have a cytoprotective action and is expected to be useful for protection of liver cells. Aside from the foregoing drugs, human epidermal growth factor (hEGF) and human hepatocyte growth factor (hHGF) are known to have cytogenesis promoting activity and their clinical application as liver regeneration promoting factors is considered promising but they are still in the stage of preclinical study.
Recently, vaccine therapy has been recommended for the treatment and prevention of hepatitis B.
However, no satisfactory therapeutic drug for hepatitis is available as yet and there is a standing need for the creation of a drug effective for preventing extensive necrosis and enhancing regeneration of hepatocytes.
It is known that irsogladine maleate (2,4-diamino-6-(2,5-dichlorophenyl)-1,3,5-triazine maleate), which is a benzoguanamine derivative structurally analogous to the compound of the present invention and such that the 2- and 5-positions of phenyl moiety of benzoguanamine have been substituted by chlorine, with both the two amino groups being unsubstituted, has a hepatocyte-protective action and is useful for the treatment of hepatitis (See Japanese Kokai Tokkyo Koho S58-55423, WO 91/01733). Similarly, derivatives also having a 2,5-dichlorophenyl group but having a piperidino or morpholino group in lieu of one of said amino groups, namely 2-amino-4-(2,5-dichlorophenyl)-6-piperidino-1,3,5-triazine and 2-amino-4-(2,5-dichlorophenyl)-6-morpholino-1,3,5-triazine, are known as intermediates for the preparation of antiallergic nicotinoylbenzoguanamine derivatives (Japanese Kokai Tokkyo Koho S57-203083 and S59-104320). Meanwhile, there is a host of known compounds corresponding to benzoguanamine, the phenyl moiety of which is either unsubstituted or halogenated and one of the amino groups of which is substituted. As an example of the compound having an acyclic group substituting one of said amino groups, amino-4-(2-hydroxyethylamino)-6-phenyl-1,3,5-triazine can be mentioned. This compound reportedly is useful as a starting material for production of resins (CA 106:34062). As a compound having a cyclic amino group, 2-amino-4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-6-phenyl-1,3,5-triazine is known to have an analgesic action (CA 84:135722). However, as to compounds corresponding to benzoguanamine in which both the 2- and 5-positions of its phenyl moiety are substituted by chlorine and one of the amino groups is a substituted amino group, there is no known compound except said compounds substituted by either piperidino or morpholino for one of the amino groups.
DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION
The present invention has for its object to provide a triazine derivative having a novel structure and a low toxic potential and showing efficacy in hepatitis and a useful medicinal composition comprising the derivative as an active ingredient.
To accomplish the above object, the inventors of the present invention synthesized and studied a variety of structurally novel compounds and found that compared with irsogladine maleate, namely �2,4-diamion-6-(2,5-dichlorophenyl)-1,3,5-triazine maleate!, which is disclosed in Japanese Kokai Tokkyo Koho S58-55423 and WO 91/01733 referred to above, the compound of the following general formula �I! exhibits remarkably superior anti-hepatitis and hepatic oncogenesis-inhibitory activity in mammalian animals, with low toxicity, and, hence, is useful as a therapeutic agent for hepatitis. The present invention has been completed on the basis of the above finding. ##STR2##

The proportion of amine �III! to be used is at least equimolar, preferably 1-1.2 molar equivalents, to each mole of �III!. The proportion of the base to be used is at least equimolar, preferably 1-2 molar equivalents, to each mole of �III!.
The starting compound �III! can be prepared by known method (Japanese Kokai Tokkyo Koho S51-70781). �III! may be a commercially available or can be synthesized typically as shown in the reference examples hereinafter.
While some of the compound �I! contain one or more asymmetric carbon atoms and, therefore, may exist as optically active forms, the respective isomers and optional mixtures thereof are also included in the scope of the present invention.
The optically active compounds mentioned above can be resoluted optically from mixtures by known method, for example by using a chiral column or by using a chiral acid (e.g. tartaric acid, dibenzoyl tartrate, mandelic acid, 10-camphorsulfonic acid) by taking advantage of their basicity. As an alternative, the optically active compounds can be obtained by using an optically active compound �III! prepared beforehand as a starting material.
The compound �I! of the present invention can be treated in the per se known manner to form any of the above-mentioned salts. For example, the hydrochloride of compound �I! can be obtained by dissolving compound �I! in an alcoholic solution of hydrogen chloride.
Among species of compound �I! according to the present invention, any compound having a carboxyl group can be converted to a salt by the known process. The salt here includes alkali metal salts such as sodium salt and potassium salt, and alkaline earth metal salts such as calcium salt. An alkali metal salt of compound �I! of the invention can be obtained by adding one equivalent of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, or the like to a carboxy-containing compound �I! of the invention, preferably in an alcoholic solvent. An alkaline earth metal salt of compound �I! of the invention can be obtained by dissolving the above alkali metal salt in water, methanol, ethanol, or a mixture thereof, for instance followed by adding one equivalent of, for example, calcium chloride.
The solvate (inclusive of the hydrate) of the compound �I! or salt of the invention is also included in the scope of the present invention. The solvate can be generally obtained by recrystallizing the compound from the corresponding solvent or a suitable mixed solvent containing the corresponding solvent.

The desired compound �I! thus obtained can be isolated and purified by per se known procedures such as concentration, pH adjustment, phase transfer, solvent extraction, crystallization, fractional distillation, and chromatography.
The compound of the present invention is useful as a therapeutic drug for hepatitis.
For use as a medicine, the compound of the present invention is administered as it is or in the form of a pharmaceutical composition containing, for example, 0.1-99.5%, preferably 0.5-90%, of the compound in a pharmaceutically acceptable nontoxic, inert carrier.
As the carrier, one or more of solid, semisolid, or liquid diluent, filler, and other formulation auxiliaries can be employed. The pharmaceutical composition is preferably administered in unit dosage forms. The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention can be administered orally, parenterally, locally (e.g. transdermally), or rectally. Of course, dosage forms suited for respective routes of administration should be selected. Particularly preferred is oral administration.
The dosage as a therapeutic drug for hepatitis is preferably established with reference to the age, body weight and other patient factors, route of administration, nature and severity of illness, etc. Usually, however, the daily oral dosage for adult humans may range generally from 100 .mu.g to 100 mg/patient and preferably from 500 .mu.g to 30 mg/patient. Lower dose levels may be sufficient in some cases, while higher dose levels may be necessary in other cases. The above-mentioned dosage can be administered in 2-3 divided doses where necessary.
Oral administration can be carried out using solid or liquid dosage forms such as bulk powders, powders, tablets, dragees, capsules, granules, suspensions, solutions, syrups, drops and sublingual tablets.
Bulk powders can be manufactured by comminuting the active substance into a finely divided form.
Powders can be manufactured by comminuting the active substance into a finely-divided form, followed by blending it with a similarly comminuted pharmaceutical carrier, e.g. an edible carbohydrate such as starch or mannitol. Where necessary, a corrigent, a preservative, a dispersant, a coloring matter, a flavor, etc. can also be added.
Capsules can be manufactured by filling said finely-divided bulk powders, powders or granules described for tablets in capsule shells such as gelatin capsule shells. Preceding the filling operation, a lubricant or a fluidizing agent, such as colloidal silica, talc, magnesium stearate, calcium stearate or solid polyethylene glycol, can be blended with the powders. Improvement in the efficacy of the drug after ingestion can be achieved when a disintegrator or a solubilizer, such as carboxymethylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose calcium, low-substitution-degree hydroxypropylcellulose, croscarmellose sodium, carboxymethylstarch sodium, calcium carbonate or sodium carbonate, is added.
Soft capsules can be manufactured by suspending said finely divided powders in vegetable oil, polyethylene glycol, glycerin, or a surfactant and wrapping the suspension in gelatin sheets. Tablets can be manufactured by adding an excipient to said powders, granulating or slugging the mixture, adding a disintegrator or a lubricant, and compressing the whole composition. A powdery mixture can be prepared by mixing said finely divided powders with said diluent or base. Where necessary, a binder (e.g. carboxymethylcellulose sodium, methylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinyl alcohol, etc.), a dissolution retardant (e.g. paraffin), a reabsorption agent (e.g. quaternary salts), and an adsorbent (e.g. bentonite, kaolin, dicalcium phosphate, etc.) can be added. The powdery mixture can be processed into granules by wetting it with a binder, e.g. a syrup, a starch paste, gum arabic, a solution of cellulose, or a solution of a high polymer, stirring the mixture, drying it, and pulverizing the same. Instead of granulating such powders, it is possible to compress the powders with a tablet machine and crush the resulting slug of crude form. The resulting granules can be protected against inter-adhesion by the addition of a lubricant such as stearic acid, a salt of stearic acid, talc, mineral oil, or the like. The mixture thus lubricated is then compressed. The resulting uncoated tablets can be coated with a film coating composition or a sugar coating composition.
The drug can be mixed with a free-flowing inert carrier and the mixture be directly compressed without resort to the above-mentioned granulation or slugging process. A transparent or translucent protective coat consisting in, for example, a hermetic shellac coat, a sugar or polymer coat, or a polishing wax coat can also be applied. Other oral compositions such as a solution, a syrup, and an elixir can also be provided in unit dosage forms each containing a predetermined proportion of the drug substance. Syrups can be manufactured by dissolving the compound in suitable flavored aqueous solutions, while elixirs can be manufactured using nontoxic alcoholic vehicles. Suspensions can be formulated by dispersing the compound in nontoxic vehicles. Where necessary, solubilizers and emulsifiers (e.g. ethoxylated isostearyl alcohol, polyoxyethylene sorbitol ester, etc.), preservatives, and flavorants (e.g. peppermint oil, saccharin, etc.) can also be added.
Where necessary, the unit dosage formulation for oral administration can be microencapsulated. This formulation can be coated or embedded in a polymer, wax or other matrix to provide a prolonged action or sustained release dosage form.
Parenteral administration can be made using liquid unit dosage forms for subcutaneous, intramuscular, or intravenous injection, e.g. solutions and suspensions. Such unit dosage forms can be manufactured by suspending or dissolving a predetermined amount of the compound in an injectable nontoxic liquid vehicle, for example an aqueous vehicle or an oily vehicle, and sterilizing the resulting suspension or solution. For isotonizing an injection, a nontoxic salt or salt solution can be added. Moreover, stabilizers, preservatives, emulsifiers, etc. may also be added.
Rectal administration can be made by using suppositories manufactured by dissolving or suspending the compound in a low-melting water-soluble or water-insoluble solid carrier such as polyethylene glycol, caccao butter, semisynthetic oil (e.g. Witepsol.RTM.), a higher ester (e.g. myristyl palmitate) or a mixture of them.

TEST EXAMPLE 1
Antihepatitis effect:
The antihepatitis action of the compound of the invention could be confirmed by the following test in mice. This test is the commonest animal test for evaluating the antihepatitis effect of drugs. It is known that the antihepatitis effect evaluated by this test method is highly correlated with the clinical effect in man (Kondo, Y. et al. Chem. Pharm. Bull. 38, 2887-2889, 1990).
Method: Six-week-old male BALB/C mice were intravenously dosed with 1 mg of BCG and after 2 weeks, 50 mg/kg of the test drug was administered orally. Then, after 1 hour, 2.5 .mu.g of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was injected intravenously to induce hepatitis. To find the LPS-associated mortality, the percentage of deaths at 48 hours was calculated. The mortality in the control group was 80-100%. The plasma transaminase (GOT, GPT) levels are known to start rising about 8 hours after LPS administration and actually no sufficient elevation was noted at 4 hours. However, for reference's sake, blood was drawn from the orbital vein at hour 4 and the plasma transaminase (GOT, GPT) concentrations were determined. As a reference compound, 2,4-diamino-6-(2,5-dichlorophenyl)-1,3,5-triazine was used. The results are presented in Table 1.

Thus, the duration of the experiment being set at 4 weeks, 200 mg/kg of diethylnitrosoamine (hereinafter referred to briefly as DEN) was first administered intraperitoneally. Beginning week 2, drinking water containing 0.02% of 2-acetylaminofluorene (hereinafter referred to briefly as AAF) was given ad libitum. At the beginning of week 3, 70% hepatectomy was performed. The test drug was mixed into the animal chow (F-2, Funabashi Farm) at the concentration of 0.01% and administered from week 2 through the final day of the experiment. The compound of Example 1 was used as the test drug and 2,4-diamino-6-(2,5-dichlorophenyl)-1,3,5-triazine as the reference compound.
On the final day of the experiment, all the animals were sacrificed by cervical dislocation under ether anaesthesia. Immediately a portion of the liver was excised, quick-frozen in dry ice-acetone, and stored until used. From the liver, 8 .mu.m-thick frozen sections were prepared and using Vectastain ABC Kit (Funakoshi Yakuhin), immunostained by the ABC method (an enzyme-labeled antibody method) using anti-glutathione-S-transferase placental form (hereinafter referred to briefly as GST-P) antibody as the primary antibody. Thus, sections were returned to room temperature under anhydrous conditions and immersed in 10 mM phosphate-buffered saline (hereinafter referred to briefly as PBS) at pH 7.2 for 15 minutes. Then, goat normal serum and the primary antibody (a 500-fold dilution, 20 .mu.l) were applied to the section and allowed to react overnight. After the reaction, the section was washed with PBS. Then, anti-rabbit secondary antibody was applied and the reaction was carried out for 30 minutes. After washing with PBS, avidin-biotin complex was applied and allowed to react for 30 minutes. The section was washed with PBS and treated with 0.1% diaminobenzidine (DAB) containing 0.02% of hydrogen peroxide for color development, dehydrated, and sealed.
The number of GST-P-positive lesions per cm.sup.2 liver tissue section was counted under an optical microscope and the area was measured with an image analyzer (SPICCA-II, Japan Avionics). The significance testing of mean values was made by Student's t-test and the result was evaluated at the 5% leval of significance. The results are presented in Table 2.
