Definitions

  • the present invention relates to novel anti-inflammatory and antiallergic compounds of the glucocorticosteroid series, methods of preparing such a compound, pharmaceutical compositions which contain such a compound them, combinations which contain such a compound, and therapeutic uses of such a compound.
  • the present invention also relates to methods of treating and/or preventing certain diseases and conditions by administering such a compound. More particularly, the invention relates to glucocorticosteroids that are isoxazolidine derivatives.
  • Corticosteroids are potent anti-inflammatory agents, able to decrease the number, activity and movement of inflammatory cells. They are commonly used to treat a wide range of chronic and acute inflammatory conditions including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), allergic rhinitis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease and autoimmune diseases. Corticosteroids mediate their effects through the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). The binding of corticosteroids to GR induces its nuclear translocation which, in turn, affects a number of downstream pathways via DNA-binding-dependent (e.g. transactivation) and -independent (e.g. transespression) mechanisms.
  • Corticosteroids for treating chronic inflammatory conditions in the lung are currently administered through inhalation.
  • One of the advantages of employing inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) is the possibility of delivering the drug directly at site of action, limiting systemic side-effects, thus resulting in a more rapid clinical response and a higher therapeutic ratio.
  • ICS treatment can afford important benefits, expecially in asthma it is important to minimise ICS systemic exposure which leads to the occurrence and severity of unwanted side effects that may be associated with chronic administration. Moreover, the limited duration of action of ICS currently available in the clinical practice contributes to suboptimal management of the disease. While the inhaler technology is the key point to target the lung, the modulation of the substituents on the corticosteroids molecular scaffold is important for the optimization of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties in order to decrease oral bioavailability, confine pharmacological activity only in the lung (prodrugs and soft drugs) and increase systemic clearance.
  • Glucocorticoids isoxazolidine derivatives are for instance described in WO 2006/005611, GB 1578446 and in “Synthesis and topical anti-inflammatory activity of some steroidal [16 ⁇ ,17 ⁇ -d] isoxazolidines” ( J.

Description

    CROSS REFERENCES TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
  • This application claims priority to European Patent Application No. 11158230.0 filed on Mar. 15, 2011, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
    • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • 1. Field of the Invention
  • The present invention relates to novel anti-inflammatory and antiallergic compounds of the glucocorticosteroid series, methods of preparing such a compound, pharmaceutical compositions which contain such a compound them, combinations which contain such a compound, and therapeutic uses of such a compound. The present invention also relates to methods of treating and/or preventing certain diseases and conditions by administering such a compound. More particularly, the invention relates to glucocorticosteroids that are isoxazolidine derivatives.
  • 2. Discussion of the Background
  • Corticosteroids are potent anti-inflammatory agents, able to decrease the number, activity and movement of inflammatory cells. They are commonly used to treat a wide range of chronic and acute inflammatory conditions including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), allergic rhinitis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease and autoimmune diseases. Corticosteroids mediate their effects through the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). The binding of corticosteroids to GR induces its nuclear translocation which, in turn, affects a number of downstream pathways via DNA-binding-dependent (e.g. transactivation) and -independent (e.g. transespression) mechanisms.
  • Corticosteroids for treating chronic inflammatory conditions in the lung such as asthma and COPD are currently administered through inhalation. One of the advantages of employing inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) is the possibility of delivering the drug directly at site of action, limiting systemic side-effects, thus resulting in a more rapid clinical response and a higher therapeutic ratio.
  • Although ICS treatment can afford important benefits, expecially in asthma it is important to minimise ICS systemic exposure which leads to the occurrence and severity of unwanted side effects that may be associated with chronic administration. Moreover, the limited duration of action of ICS currently available in the clinical practice contributes to suboptimal management of the disease. While the inhaler technology is the key point to target the lung, the modulation of the substituents on the corticosteroids molecular scaffold is important for the optimization of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties in order to decrease oral bioavailability, confine pharmacological activity only in the lung (prodrugs and soft drugs) and increase systemic clearance. Morever, long lasting ICS activity in the lung is highly desirable as once daily administration of ICS would allow the reduction of the frequency of administration and, thus, substantially improve patient compliance and, as a result, disease management and control. In sum, there is a pressing medical need for developing ICS with improved pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics.

    • Procedure for the Preparation of the Compounds of the Invention
  • According to particular embodiments, the compounds of the invention may be prepared according to different routes described in scheme 1, depending on the nature of the substituents R1 and R2.
  • Route A1—the reaction of compounds of general formula (IV) with N-tetrahydropyranyl hydroxylamine (HO—NH-THP), to prepare a compound of formula (V), can be conveniently conducted in a protic solvent such as EtOH at a temperature ranging from 80 to 100° C. The THP protecting group is directly cleaved in the reaction conditions.
  • These compounds may be further functionalized with alkyl halides, acyl halides, isocyanates, carbamoyl chlorides or sulphonyl chlorides using method readily apparent for those skilled in the art (J. Med. Chem., 379-388, 1995; J. C. S. Chem. Comm., 256-257, 1985, which are both incorporated herein by reference in their entireties), to give compounds of general formula (VI). These reactions are usually carried out in a solvent such as dichloromethane (DCM) or tetrahydrofuran (THF) and proceed at a temperature range from room temperature (RT) to reflux. A base such as triethylamine or diisopropylethylamine may be required to promote the reaction. The reaction with aryl halides may be performed under the known copper catalyzed N-arylation of isoxazolidine (Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett., 2834, 2005, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). The acetyl ester may be easily hydrolyzed using standard conditions for the deacetylation of alcohols, treating for example the compound with a base such as sodium or potassium hydroxide or potassium carbonate in a suitable solvent (e.g. methanol or ethanol). This reaction usually proceeds at RT over a period of 1 to 5 hours leading to compounds of general formula (VI).
  • Compounds of general formula (IV) may be conveniently prepared according to standard procedures reported in the literature. For instance they may be prepared by treatment of compounds of general formula (III) with a base such as potassium acetate. This reaction is usually performed in a suitable polar solvent such as dimethylformamide (DMF) and typically proceeds at a temperature range from 80 to 110° C., over a period of 0.5 to 4 hours.
  • Compounds of formula (III) may be readily prepared from known compounds by methods well known to those skilled in the art, starting from compounds of general formula (II) (J. Med. Chem., 1982, 25, 1492-1495, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety).
  • Route A2—alternatively, the compounds of general formula (VI) may be prepared starting from the reaction of a compound of formula (VII) with a compound of formula (X) in the presence of paraformaldehyde, using known procedures for the isoxazolidine formation, by cycloaddition of nitrones (J. Med. Chem., 25, 1492-1495, 1982, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). The reaction is conveniently carried out in a protogenic solvent, such as ethanol, at temperatures ranging from 80 to 100° C. Hydroxylamine of formula (X) are either commercially available or may be easily prepared using procedures well known for those skilled in the art, for example by reducing an oxime with a reducing agent, such as borane pyridine complex (J. Med. Chem., 40, 1955-1968, 1997, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety) or by reaction of O-tetrahydropyranyl hydroxylamine with a suitable alkylating agent such as alkyl halides (Chem. Pharm. Bull., 46, 966-972, 1998, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety).
  • The compounds of formula (VII) may be prepared hydrolyzing the compounds of formula (IV). This reaction is preferably carried out by subjecting compounds (IV) to the action of an enzyme, such as immobilized Lipase from Candida Antarctica (Sigma Aldrich) (Tetrahedron, 50, 13165-13172, 1994, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety).
  • Route A3—compounds of general formula (VIII) may be prepared stalling from the reaction of a compound of formula (VII) with HO—NH-THP. This reaction may be conveniently conducted in dioxane or in a protic solvent such as EtOH at a temperature ranging from 80 to 100° C. The THP protecting group is directly cleaved in the reaction conditions. The obtained (VIII) can be conveniently and selectively protected by treatment with dihydropyran in a suitable solvent such as DCM or THF, at temperature from 0° C. to RT, to obtain compound of formula (IX). The reaction is complete in time ranging from 0.5 to 3 hours. Compounds of formula (IX) may be further functionalized with alkyl halides, acyl halides, isocyanates, carbamoyl chlorides or sulphonyl chlorides as described in Route A1. The THP protecting group can be easily removed by treating the protected intermediate with HCl in a suitable solvent, such as THF or dioxane. This reaction usually proceeds at RT over a period of 1 to 15 hours leading to compounds of general formula (VI).
  • Route A—conversion of the hydroxyl group of 2-hydroxy acetyl moiety at position 6b of compounds of general formula (VI) into a leaving group (LG) of compounds of general formula (XI) can be carried out by treating compounds of formula (VI) with methanesulfonyl chloride or p-toluenesulphonyl chloride (March's, “Advanced Organic Chemistry”, Wiley-Interscience, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety), in a suitable solvent, such as pyridine. This reaction is usually performed at RT over a period of 1 to 5 hours.
  • The LG of compounds of general formula (XI) may be easily displaced by nucleophiles such as halide anions, alcohols, thiols, thioacids, amines, amides and carbanions (J. Org. Chem., 1042, 1999; J. Steroid. Biochem., 13, 311-322, 1980, which are both incorporated herein by reference in their entireties), to obtain compounds of general formula (I) and (I′) wherein R1═(CH2)n—Z—(CH2)n′—R3, n and n′=0, Z and R3 are as defined above. The reaction is usually performed in a suitable solvent, such as DCM, THF or DMF, in a range of temperature from 0 to 80° C. over a period of 1 to 5 hours and may be promoted by a base such as sodium or potassium carbonate or sodium hydride. After introduction of the LG (for example mesylate) on the C21 hydroxy moiety, an oxidoreduction reaction can be performed, for example by means of an excess of sodium iodide, to afford the corresponding methyl ketone. The obtained product may be further functionalized modifying the moiety introduced by the described nucleophilic substitution reaction.
  • Route B—reaction of compounds of formula (VI) under well known oxidation conditions to obtain the intermediates of general formula (XII). This reaction is usually performed in open air at RT over a period of 12 to 48 hours, in a suitable solvent such as THF in the presence of aqueous solution of an inorganic base, such as sodium or potassium hydroxide.
  • Route B1—conversion of the intermediates of formula (XII) into compounds of general formula (I) and (I′) wherein R1═(CH2)n—Z—(CH2)n′—R3, n and n′=0. Z and R3 are as defined above, by treating the acid (XII) with one or more equivalents of an acid activating agent such as carbonyldiimidazole or HATU. The reaction is usually performed in a suitable polar solvent such as DMF, in a range of temperature from 0 to 80° C. over a period of 1 to 2 hours. The activated acid may be reacted with a nucleophile, such as alcohols, thiols, thioacids and amines. The reaction may be promoted by a base such as sodium or potassium carbonate, sodium hydride and proceeds at a temperature ranging from 0 to 20° C. over a period of 1 to 24 hours.
  • Alternatively, the intermediates of formula (XII) may be converted into the corresponding acyl chloride under well known conditions, using oxalyl chloride in a suitable solvent such as DCM. The activated intermediate may be reacted with a nucleophile such as alcohols, thiols, thioacids, amines and carbanions such as alkyl, aryl and heteroaryl cuprates or other metallorganic compounds reported in the literature, to be suitable for the conversion of acyl chlorides into the corresponding ketones.
  • Intermediates of formula (XII) may be also converted into compounds of general formula (I) and (I′) wherein R1═(CH2)n—Z—(CH2)n′—R3, n and n′=0, Z═O and R3 is as defined above, by treating the acid (XII) with a base such as potassium sodium or cesium carbonate and triethylamine, in a suitable solvent such as DMF or acetonitrile, at a temperature ranging from 0 to 20° C. Sometimes these alkylation reactions may be promoted by copper salts such as copper iodide, in the presence of KI. The obtained products may be further functionalized modifying the moiety introduced by the described nucleophilic substitution reaction.
  • Route B2—conversion of intermediates of formula (XII) into compounds of general formula (XIII), derived from reaction of acid (XII) with carbonyldiimidazole or HATU, followed by reaction with the sodium salt of thioacetic acid and/or anhydrous hydrogen sulphide. The reaction is usually performed adding the solution of the preformed salt in the reaction solvent to the solution of the activated acid at a temperature ranging from 0 to 20° C. or directly adding the solid sodium hydrogen sulphide anhydrous. The thioacid intermediate (XIII) readily formed is in situ reacted with an alkylating reagent, such as bromoalkanes, leading to thioesters of general formula (I) and (I′) wherein R1═(CH2)n—Z—(CH2)n′—R3, n and n′=0, Z═S and R3 is as defined above. The choice of suitable bromoalkane, such as bromo-chloromethane, may allow the preparation of compounds of formula (I) and (I′) wherein R1═(CH2)n—Z—(CH2)n′—R3, n and n′=0, Z═S and R3 is as defined above, that may be further modified. For example, the reaction of these compounds in which R3 is chloromethyl with potassium iodide, followed by treatment with silver fluoride, may allow the preparation of compounds of formula (I) and (I′) in which R3=fluoromethyl. These reactions are well known to those skilled in the art (J. Med. Chem., 37, 3717-3729, 1994, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). Alternatively, the thioacid intermediate (XIII) may be in situ reacted with a DMF solution of bromofluoromethane affording smoothly compounds of formula (I) and (I′) in which R3=fluoromethyl.
  • Route C—reaction of the intermediates of general formula (IV) with hydroxylamines of formula (X) in the presence of paraformaldehyde using known procedures for the isoxazolidine formation by cycloaddition of nitrones. The reaction is conveniently performed in a protogenic solvent, such as ethanol. The reaction is conveniently carried out at high temperature, for example from 60 to 85° C. and leads to compounds of general formula (I) and (I′) wherein R1═—(CH2)n—Z—(CH2)n′—R3, wherein n=1, n′=0, Z═O and R3═Ac.
  • The intermediates of general formula (XIV) may be prepared by treating compounds of general formula (I) and (I′) wherein R1═—(CH2)n—Z—(CH2)n′—R3, wherein n=1, n′=0, Z═O, R3═Ac and X═H, with methanesulfonyl chloride in a suitable solvent, such as DMF, in the presence of a base, such as pyridine. The reaction proceeds at a temperature ranging from 80 to 100° C. over a period of 1 to 5 hours.

The reaction involves the use of a chlorinating agent, such as N-chlorosuccinimide or
  • dichloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin, and is promoted by an acid such as perchloric acid. The reaction is usually carried out in a polar solvent such as THF, in a range of temperature from 0 to 20° C. over a period of 1 to 4 hours. The acetyl ester of compounds of formula (XIV) may be easily hydrolyzed using standard conditions for the deacetylation of alcohols, treating for example the compound with a base such as sodium or potassium carbonate in a solvent such as methanol or ethanol. This reaction usually proceeds at low temperature, ranging from 0 to 20° C., over a period of 0.5 to 2 hours.
  • Route D—reaction of the intermediates of general formula (VI) with acyl chlorides, using procedures well known for those skilled in the art. The reaction is conveniently performed in DCM as solvent in the presence of a base such as triethylamine, at room temperatures over a period of 20 to 50 hours. This procedure may allow the preparation of compounds of formula (I′) wherein R1═—(CH2)n—Z—(CH2)n′R3, n=1, n′=0, Z═O, and R3 are as defined above.
  • Route E—reaction of compound (VII) with mesyl chloride and N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA) in dry acetonitrile. Then, the introduction of fluorine atom can be conveniently performed by in situ addition of tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride (TBAF) and KI and heating over a period of 8 to 20 hours. Cycloaddition reaction of the obtained intermediate (XV) with hydroxylamines of formula (X) in the presence of paraformaldehyde, under the known conditions described in Route C, lead to the formation of compounds of general formula (I′), wherein R1═—(CH2)n—Z—(CH2)n′—R3, n=0, n′=1, R3═F, and R2 is as defined above.

It is necessary, in this procedure, to control the temperature between 0 and 10° C. Finally, another convenient reductive method to afford compounds of general formula (Xb), entails the reduction of compounds (XXI) with Zn and NH4Cl (Tetrahedron Letters, 2005, Vol. 46, No 35, 5913-5918; J.

  • To a solution of 157 (733 mg, 1.461 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (12 ml), at 0° C., air was bubbled for 15 minutes; then, 6 N sodium hydroxide (0.974 ml, 5.85 mmol) was slowly dropped, and air was bubbled for further 5 minutes at 0° C. The reaction mixture was left to warm up to RT and it was stirred at RT overnight. The reaction mixture was acidified to pH 1 and tetrahydrofuran was evaporated. The aqueous layer was extracted with AcOEt (100 ml×3). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated. The crude was purified by silica gel flash chromatography in DCM/AcOEt/HCO2H 39.5:0.5:50, affording 396 mg of the title compound (56%).

    • Pharmacological Activity of the Compounds of the Invention In Vivo Studies Example 27 Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-Induced Lung Neutrophilia
  • The potency and duration of action of the compounds described in the present invention were evaluated in vivo in an acute model of lung inflammation following a method described in Am. J. Respir. Crit. Care Med., Vol 162. pp 1455-1461, 2000 (which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety), with minor modifications. The tests were performed on Sprague-Dawley male rats (200 g).
  • Intratracheal instillation of LPS resulted in a statistically significant increase in neutrophil concentration in BALF, a hallmark of acute ongoing pulmonary inflammation. For the dose of glucocorticoid producing a 75% inhibition (ED75 dose) assessment test, compounds (0.01-1 μmoles/Kg of body weight) were administered intratracheally as suspension (0.2% Tween 80 in NaCl 0.9%) 1 hour before LPS challenge.
  • A dose-response curve of the inhibitory effect of the test compounds on LPS-induced lung neutrophilia was performed, and the ED50 dose of glucocorticoid was taken as a measure of potency in this bioassay. The ED50 dose values for some representative compounds of the present invention were comprised between 0.05 and 0.16 μmoles/Kg of body weight.
  • In a second series of experiments, aimed at the evaluation of the duration of action, the compounds were administered as suspension intratracheally, at the ED75 dose, administered 24 hours before LPS challenge. The most interesting compounds were active (percent of inhibition higher than 50%) when administered 24 hours before LPS challenge.
    • In Vitro Studies Example 28 Glucocorticoid Receptor (GR) Translocation Assay Protocol
  • A quantitative measurement of GR nuclear translocation of the compounds of the present invention was performed according to ASSAY Drug Devel. Technol., 4(3), 263-272, 2006 (which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety), through a novel cell-based GR-translocation assay in Enzyme Fragment Complementation (EFC) format developed by DiscoveRx (Fremont, Calif.). In the absence of the glucocorticoid, the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) resides in the cytosol complexed with a variety of proteins including heat shock proteins. When a glucocorticoid diffuses through the cell membrane into the cytoplasm and binds to the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), it results in release of the heat shock proteins and the translocation into the nucleus where it modulates gene transcription.
  • The DiscoveRx assay uses EFC of b-galactosidase (b-gal) as an indicator of GR-translocation in engineered CHO-K1 biosensor cells. The enzyme acceptor (EA) fragment of b-gal resides in the nucleus, as designed through the use of a proprietary set of sequence additions and modifications. The small peptide enzyme donor (ED) fragment of b-gal was fused directly to the C-terminus of GR, and was localized in the cytoplasm in the absence of receptor signaling. Upon binding to a GR ligand, the complex translocates to the nucleus, where intact enzyme activity was restored by complementation and b-gal activity was detected.
  • CHO-K1 cells stably expressing NLS-enzyme acceptor fragment (EA) of b-gal and GR-enzyme donor (ED) fragment of b-gal were maintained in F12 medium (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, Calif.) at 37° C. under a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2 and 95% air. The medium contained 10% FBS, 2 mM L-glutamine, 50 U/ml penicillin 50 μg/ml streptomycin, and 250 μg/ml hygromycin and 500 μg/ml G418 (Invitrogen). GR-translocation was measured using the PathHunter Detection Kit containing cell membrane permeabilizing reagent and beta-gal substrate (DiscoveRx, Fremont, Calif.). All compounds were screened using varying concentrations ranging from 10−11 to 10−6 M. The assay was performed in 48-wells (105 cells/well). Incubation with screened compounds was performed at 37° C. for two hours. Detection was made by adding the detection buffer from the kit supplied by DiscoveRx and incubating at room temperature for one hour. Luminescence was detected by using a CENTRO LB 960 microplate reader (Berthold Technologies).
  • Statistical analysis and determinations of EC50s were performed by using Prism-version 3.0 Graphpad Software (San Diego, Calif.).
  • Some representative compounds of the invention assayed with the GR translocation displayed a EC50 comprised between 0.35 nM and 10 nM.
    • Example 29 Inhibition of LPS-Induced Nitric Oxide Production in RAW 264.7 Macrophages
  • An in vitro model based on macrophagic murine cell line RAW 264.7 was used for testing the anti-inflammatory effects of the corticosteroids of the present invention. During the inflammatory process, large amounts of nitric oxide (NO) were generated by the inducible isoforms of NO synthase (iNOS). Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was commonly used in experimental settings to stimulate inflammatory responses in macrophages.
  • Cells were grown in a culture medium (RPMI supplemented with heat-inactivated 10% fetal calf serum, 2 mM glutamine, 100 U/ml penicillin and 0.1 mg/ml streptomycin) without phenol red. Cell stimulation was elicited by incubating cells for 24 hours with LPS to final concentrations ranging from 100 ng/ml. Treatments with the compounds of the invention were carried out by adding such compounds vehicled in DMSO (0.1% final concentration) to the final desired concentrations 15 minutes before LPS exposure. As an index of nitric oxide production, the concentration of nitrite was measured in the conditioned media by using the Griess colorimetric reaction (J. Neuroimmunol., 150, 29-36, 2004, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety).
  • Statistical analysis and determinations of IC50s were performed by using Prism-version 3.0 Graphpad Software (San Diego, Calif.). The IC50 values tested on some representative compounds of the invention were comprised between 0.06 and 5.3 nM.
  • Where a numerical limit or range is stated herein, the endpoints are included. Also, all values and subranges within a numerical limit or range are specifically included as if explicitly written out.
  • Obviously, numerous modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in light of the above teachings. It is therefore to be understood that, within the scope of the appended claims, the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described herein.
  • All patents and other references mentioned above are incorporated in full herein by this reference, the same as if set forth at length.
