Definitions

  • the present invention relates to 5,6-dihydro-4H-[1 ,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a][1]benzazepine derivatives of the general formula (I) and/or salts thereof and/or geometric isomers thereof and/or stereoisomers thereof and/or enantiomers thereof and/or racemates thereof and/or diastereomers thereof and/or biologically active metabolites thereof and/or prodrugs thereof and/or solvates thereof and/or hydrates thereof and/or polymorphs thereof which are centrally and/or peripherally acting Via receptor modulators, particularly Via receptor antagonists.
  • Additional subject of the present invention is the process for the preparation of the compounds and the intermediates of the preparation process as well.
  • the invention also relates to the pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds and to the use thereof in the treatment and/or prophylaxis of a disease or condition associated with Via receptor function
  • vasopressin antidiuretic hormone, ADH, CYIQNCPRG
  • ADH a 9-amino acid peptide hormone produced by the magnoceliular neurons of the paraventricular (PVN) and supraoptic (SON) nuclei of the hypothalamus and secreted directly into the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland where the hormone is stored until entering into the bloodstream in the periphery, the major role of vasopressin is in the contraction of blood vessels, as well as in glucose metabolism and in the regulation of excretion.
  • vasopressin may lead to pathological changes in the body, such as the central form of diabetes insipidus or abnormally low blood pressure (hypotension), while in the case of elevated levels of vasopressin or exogenous administration various forms of strengthening of the aggressive behaviour can be observed (Ferris et ai., BMC Neuroscience 2008, 9:111).
  • Oxytocin (OXT, CY!QNGPLG) is a vasopressin-related peptide hormone, differing from that in one amino acid and its receptor is also related to vasopressin receptors.
  • the effects of compounds on the oxytocin receptor show species-specific differences, but the oxytocin hormone itself is identical in the different mammalian species.
  • the vasopressin peptide is the same in ail mammals (except marsupials and pigs) and the effects exerted through its receptors may also show species-specific differences.
  • the anxiolytic effect of oxytocin exerted in the central nervous system is well-known (Neumann ID. J Neuroendocrinal 2008, 20(6): 858-65), therefore the inhibition of the oxytocin receptor in the central nervous system can trigger anxiety as undesirable side effect.
  • V1aR The Via receptor
  • V1bR The V1 b receptors (V1bR) are also can be found in the cortex, hippocampus and pituitary gland, and in the periphery they play an important role in the regulation of the pancreas and the adrenal glands.
  • V2R V2 receptor
  • the V2 receptor is mainly localised on the periphery, in the kidneys where it increases water reabsorption, thereby exerting the antidiuretic effect of vasopressin (Robben et a! , Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 2007, 292(1): F253-60).
  • vasopressin Rosben et a! , Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 2007, 292(1): F253-60.
  • the secondary signalling pathway of Via and V1b receptors include the change of intracellular Ca 2 * concentration through phosphatidylinositol, whereas the V2 receptors activate adenylate cyclase enzyme and influence cAMP levels (Gouzenes et a!., J Physiol 1999, 517(Pt3):771-9; Tahara et al., Pf!ugers Arch 1999, 437(2):219-26).
  • Vasopressin shows sexual dimorphism in inducing behavioural effects, despite the fact that distribution and amount of the V1aR mRNAs do not differ in men and women (Szot et al., Brain Res Mol Brain Res 1994, 24(1-4):1-10) Experiments in mice have shown that the increased water absorption prior to their sleep period was triggered by their internal clock and not their physiological necessities (Gizowski et al., Nature 2016, 537(7622):685- 8). Sleep disorder is a major accompanying symptom of autism (Giickman, Neuroses Blobehav Rev 2010, 34(5): 755-68).
  • Vasopressin acts as a neuromodulator in the brain, its elevated level can be detected in the amygdala under stress (Ebner et al., Eur J Neuroses 2002, 15(2):384-8)
  • Such stressful life situations are well known to increase the likelihood of developing depression and anxiety (Kendier et al., Arch Gen Psychiatry 2003, 60(8):789-96; Simon et al., Recent Pat CNS Drug Discov, 2008, 3(2):77-93; Egashira et al., J Pharmacol Sci 2009, 109(1):44-9; Bielsky et al., Neuropsychopharmacology 2004, 29(3):483-93).
  • V1aR The expression of V1aR is high in the brain, especially in certain parts of the limbic system, such as the amygdala, the lateral septum and the hippocampus which play an important role in the development of anxiety
  • Male V1aR gene knocked out mice exhibited reduced anxiety in the elevated plus maze, the open field and the light-dark box tests, but these differences could not be detected in females (Bielsky et al , Behav Brain Res 2005, 164(1): 132-6).
  • V1aR knockout mice did not show any phenotypic difference in motor performances.
  • V1aR KO mice showed no difference compared to their wild-type littermates, however, in the experiments carried out in continuous darkness the diurnal rhythm of Vi a knockout mice was shifted significantly (Egashira et al., Behav Brain Res 2007, 178(1): 123-7).
  • V1 aR KO mice showed modified activity in the prepu!se inhibition test, in the test which is accepted as animal model of sensory motor deficiency observed in most schizophrenic patients Egashira et al have shown decreased function in the social interaction test, which is suitable to measure socio-cognitive behaviour of the V1 aR KO mice in both sexes, but it was not observed after the treatment with antagonist (Bleickard et al , Psychopharmacology (Berl) , 2009, 202:71 1-18).
  • Two microsateliite polymorphisms associated with autism could be determined in the case of variants of the AVPR1A gene encoding the Via receptor (Kim et al., Mol Psychiatry 2002, 7:503-7; Yirmiya et al., Mol Psychiatry 2006, 11 :488-94; Yang et al., Psychiatry Res, 2010, 178(1): 199 ⁇ 201 ; Yang et al., Neurosci Lett 2010, 479(3): 197-200) It also refers to a genetic connection that altered activation of amygdala could be detected in patients carrying two risk alleles in the V1aR gene. These modified receptors have been shown to be able to alter the activation threshold of amygdala during emotional facial recognition process (Meyer- Lindenberg et al., Mol Psychiatry 2009, 14:968-75).
  • V1aR antagonists Preclinical data also support the efficacy of V1aR antagonists in autism.
  • a widely used and accepted animal model of autism is to study the behaviour of rats exposed to valproate (VPA) treatment in utero.
  • the reduced social behaviour of VPA-treated animals could be reversed by the V1 aR antagonist compound to the normal level in a functional magnetic resonance imaging study it was also found that decreased perfusion values were restored by the V1 aR antagonist in different brain regions of prenata!iy VPA-treated animals.
  • V1aR antagonist The decreased function of the cortex, the inferior colliculus, the hippocampus and the hypothalamus was increased by treatment with the V1 aR antagonist, whereas in the ventral tegmentum, the striatum and the colliculus superior, the augmented perfusion was normalised by the V1aR antagonist (Grundschober et al , Poster presented at Annual Meeting of the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology, 2014, Phoenix, USA). For this reason, V1aR antagonist compounds showing favourable blood-brain barrier penetration are expected to be advantageous.
  • Influencing V1aR with small molecule antagonists is a promising strategy for the treatment of various pathological conditions of the female sex organs (such as, but not limited to, dysmenorrhea, sexual dysfunction), long-lasting pathological conditions in blood pressure control (such as, but not limited to, hypertension and/or chronic heart failure), conditions resulting from inappropriate secretion of vasopressin (such as, but not limited to, diabetes insipidus, renal failure, nephrotic syndrome and cirrhosis). It can be considered another promising strategy in the treatment of anxiety, depression, aggression, and disorders of the central nervous system where one of the symptoms and/or syndromes of the disease may be related to the latter three diseases or show comorbidity with them.
  • pathological conditions of the female sex organs such as, but not limited to, dysmenorrhea, sexual dysfunction
  • blood pressure control such as, but not limited to, hypertension and/or chronic heart failure
  • vasopressin such as, but not limited to, diabetes insipidus

  • SRX 251 Clinical trial was conducted with SRX251 to treat dysmenorrhea but both Phase 1 studies were discontinued in 2016 and similarly to SRX246 it was also investigated for aggression in the preciinicai development (Adis!nsight: SRX 251 - Latest information Update: 04 Nov 2017 http://adisinsight.springer.com/drugs/800025117).
  • SRX-246 and SRX-251 are active on the human Via receptor and in rats both compounds were detectable in the brain at approximately 100-fold of the effective concentrations detected in the binding assay (Guilion et a!., Bioorg Med Chem 2007, 15:2054-80; Fabio et a!., J Pharm Sci 2013, 102(6):2033-43).
