Description
SELECTIVE ANDROGEN RECEPTOR MODULATORS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
5 FIELD OF INVENTION
[0001] The present invention relates to a novel class of tissue-selective androgen receptor targeting agents (A TA) which demonstrate androgenic and anabolic activity of a nonsteroidal ligand for the androgen receptor. The agents define a new subclass of compounds which are tissue-selective androgen receptor modulators (SARM) which are lo useful for male hormone therapy such as oral testosterone replacement therapy, male contraception, maintaining sexual desire in women, treating prostate cancer, and imaging prostate cancer. These agents are also administered to a subject for the treatment of sarcopenia, lack of sexual libido, osteoporosis, erythropoiesis, and fertility. The agents may be used alone or in combination with a progestin or estrogen.
I S
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] The androgen receptor ("AR"') is a ligand-activated transcriptional regulatory protein that mediates induction of male sexual development and function through its activity with endogenous androgens. Androgens are generally known as the male sex 0 hormones. However, androgens also play a pivotal role in female physiology and reproduction. The andrαgenic hormones are steroids which are produced in the body by the testis and the cortex of the adrenal gland, or synthesized in the laboratory, Androgenic steroids play an important role in many physiologic processes, including the development and maintenance of male sexual characteristics such as muscle and bone 5 mass, prostate growth, spermatogenesis, and the male hair pattern (Matsumαto,
. Endocrinol. Met. Clin. N. Am. 23:857-75 (1994). The endogenous steroidal androgens include testosterone and dihydrotestosterone ("DHT"). Testosterone is the principal steroid secreted by the testes and is the primary circulating androgen found in the plasma of males. Testosterone is converted to DHT by the enzyme 5 alpha-reductase in many 0 peripheral tissues. DHT is thus thought to serve as the intracellular mediator for most androgen actions (Zhou, et al.a Molec. Endocrinol. 9:208-18 (1995)). Other steroidal androgens include esters of testosterone, such as the cypionate, propionate, pbenylpropionate* cyclopentylpropionate, isocarporate, enanthate, and decanoate esters, and other synthetic androgens such as 7-Methyl-Nortestosterone ("MENT1") and its
acetate ester (Sundararπ et al., "7 Alpha-Methyl-Nortestosterone(MENT): The Optimal Androgen For Male Contraception," Ann. Med., 25:199-205 (1993) ("Sundaram"))- Because the AR is involved in male sexual development and function, the AR is a likely target for effecting male contraception or other forms of hormone replacement therapy. The AR also regulates female sexual function (i.e., libido), bone formation, and erythropoiesis.
[0003] Worldwide. opulation growth and social awareness of family planning have stimulated a great deal of research in contraception. Contraception is a difficult subject under any circumstances. It is fraught with cultural and social stigma, religious implications, and, most certainly, significant health concerns. This situation is only exacerbated when the subject focuses on male contraception. Despite the availability of suitable contraceptive devices, historically, society has looked to women to be responsible for contraceptive decisions and their consequences. Although health concerns over sexually transmitted diseases have made men more aware o the need to develop safe and responsible sexual habits, women still often bear the brunt of contraceptive choice. Women have a number of choices, from temporary mechanical devices such as sponges and diaphragms to temporary chemical devices such as spermϊcides. Women also have at their disposal more permanent options, such as physical devices like lUDs and cervical caps as well as more permanent chemical treatments, such as birth control pills and subcutaneous implants. However, to date, the only options available for men include the use of condoms or a vasecto y. Condom use, however is not favored by many men because of the reduced sexual sensitivity, the interruption in sexual spontaneity, and the significant possibility of pregnancy caused by breakage or misuse. Vasectomies are also not favored. If more convenient methods of birth control were available to men, particularly long term methods that require no preparative activity immediately prior to a sexual act, such methods could significantly increase the likelihood that men would take more responsibility for contraception,
[0004] Administration of the male sex steroids (e.g., testosterone and its derivatives) has shown particular promise in this regard due to the combined gonadotropin- suppressing and androgen-substituting properties of these compounds (Steinberger et al.,
02/16310
"Effect of Chronic Administration of Testosterone Bnanthate on Spe m Production and Plasma Testosterone, Follicle Stimulating Hormone, and Luteinizing Hormone Levels: A Preliminary Evaluation of a Possible Male Contraceptive", Fertility and Sterility 28:1320- 28 (1977)). Chronic administration of high doses of testosterone completely 5 abolishes sperm production (azoospermia) or reduces it to a very low level (ollgospermia). The degree of speπnatogenic suppression necessary to produce infertility is not precisely known. However, a recent report by the World Health Organization showed that weekly intramuscular injections of testosterone enanthate result in azoospermia or severe oligosperrnia (i.e., less than 3 million sperm per mi) and infertility l o in 98% of men receiving therapy (World Health Organization Task Force on Methods Ar Regulation of Male Fertility, "Contraceptive Efficacy of Testosterone-Induced Azoospermia and Oligosperrnia in Normal Men," Fertilily and Sterility 65:821-29 (1996)).
15 [0005] A variety of testosterone esters have been developed that are more slowly absorbed after intramuscular injection and, thus, result in greater androgenic effect. Testosterone enanthate is the most widely used of these esters. While testosterone enanthate has been valuable in terms of establishing the feasibility of hormonal agents for male contraception, it has several drawbacks, including the need for weekly 0 injections and the presence of supraphysiologic peak levels of testosterone immediately following intramuscular injection (Wu, "Effects of Testosterone Enanthate in Normal Men; Experience From a Multicenter Contraceptive Efficacy Study," Fertility and Sterility 65:626-36 (1996)).
5 [0006] Steroidal ligands which bind the AR and act as androgens (e.g. testosterone enanthate) or as antiandrogens (e.g. cyproterone acetate) have been known for many years and are used clinically (Wu 1988). Although nonsteroidal antiandrogens are in clinical use for hormone-dependent prostate cancer, nonsteroidal androgens have not been reported. For this reason, research on male contraceptives has focused solely on 0 steroidal compounds.

[00052] As used herein, receptors for extracellular signaling molecules are collectively referred to as "cell signaling receptors". Many cell signaling receptors are transmembrane proteins on a cell surface; when they bind an extracellular signaling molecule (i.e., a ligand), they become activated so as to generate a cascade of intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the cell, In contrast, in some cases, the
6310
receptors are inside the cell and the signaling ligand has to enter the cell to activate them; these signaling molecules therefore must be sufficiently small and hydrophobic to diffuse across the plasma membrane of the cell, As used herein, these receptors are collectively referred to as "intracellular cell signaling receptors".
[00053] Steroid hormones are one example of small hydrophobic molecules that diffuse directly across or are transported across the plasma membrane of target cells and bind to intracellular cell signaling receptors. These receptors are structurally related and constitute the intracellular receptor superfamily (or steroid-hormone receptor superfamily). Steroid hormone receptors include progesterone receptors, estrogen receptors, androgen receptors, glucocorticoid receptors, and mineralocorticoid, and numerous orphan receptors. The present invention is particularly directed to androgen receptors and all of its isoforms.
[00054] In addition to ligand binding to the receptors, the receptors can be blocked to prevent ligand binding, When a substance binds to a receptor, the three-dimensional structure o the substance fits into a space created by the three-dimensional structure of the receptor in a ball and socket configuration,
[00055] The better the ball fits into the socket, the more tightly it is held. This phenomenon is called affinity. If the affinity of a substance is sufficiently high, it will compete with the hormone and bind the binding site more frequently. The binding of he ligand may also lead to tissue-selective recruitment of other important proteins to transduce the signal. These proteins are known as coactivators and corepressor, participate in signal transduction, and may be selectively induced or inhibited by ligand binding. Once bound, signals may be sent through the receptor into the cells, causing the cell to respond in some fashion. This is called activation. On activation, the activated receptor then directly regulates the transcription of specific genes. But the substance and the receptor may have certain attributes, other than affinity, that activate the cell. Chemical bonds between atoms of the substance and the atoms of the receptors may form. In some cases, this leads to a change in the configuration ofthe receptor, which is enough to begin the activation process (called signal transduction). As a result,
310
substances can be made which bind receptors and activate them (called receptor agonists) or inactivate them (called receptor antagonists).
[00056] The present invention is directed to selective androgen receptor modulator compounds which are agonist compounds, and are, therefore, useful in binding to and activating steroidal hormone receptors. The compounds are non-steroidal. Preferably, the agonist compound of the present invention is an agonist that binds the androgen receptor. Preferably, the compound has high affinity for the androgen receptor. The compound may bind either reversibjy or irreversibly to the androgen receptor. The compound of the present invention may contain a functional group (affinity label) that allows alkylation of the androgen receptor (i.e. covalent bond formation). Thus, in this case, the compound binds irreversibly to the receptor and, accordingly, cannot be displaced by a steroid, such as the endogenous ligands dihydrotestosterone and testosterone. It is preferable, however, for the compounds of the present invention to reversibiy bind the androgen receptor.

[00067] As used herein, "pharmaceutical composition" means therapeutically effective amounts of the SARM or the non-steroidal agonist compound of the present invention, together with suitable diluents, preservatives, solubilizers, emulsifiers, adjuvant and/or carriers. A "therapeutically effective amount" as used herein refers to that amount which provides a therapeutic effect for a given condition and administration regimen. Such compositions are liquids or Lyophilized or otherwise dried formulations and include diluents of various buffer content (e.g., Tris-HCI., acetate, phosphate), pH and ionic strength, additives such as albumin or gelatin to prevent absorption to surfaces, detergents (e.g., Tween 20, Tween SO, Pluronic F68, bile acid salts), solubilising agents (e-g-» glycerol, polyethylene glycerol), anti-oxidants (e.g., ascorbic acid, sodium metabisulfite), preservatives (e.g., Thirnerosal, benzyl alcohol, parabens), bulking substances or tonicity modifiers (e.g., lactose, mannitol), covalent attachment of

[00073] Compounds modified by the covalent attachment of water-soluble polymers such as polyethylene glycol, copolymers of polyethylene glycol and polypropylene glycol, carboxymethyl cellulose, dextran, pofyviny! alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone or polyproline are known to exhibit substantially longer half- lives in blood following intravenous injection than do the corresponding unmodified compounds (Abuchowski et al., 1981; Newmark et al, 1982; and Katre et al„ 1987), Such modifications may also increase the compound's solubility in aqueous solution, eliminate aggregation, enhance the physical and chemical stability of the compound, and greatly reduce the immunogenicity and reactivity of the compound. A$ a result, the desired in vivo biological activity may be achieved by the administration of such polymer-compound abducts less frequently or in lower doses than with the unmodified compound.
[00074] In yet another embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition can be delivered in a controlled release system. For example, the agent may be administered using intravenous infusion, an implantable osmotic pump, a transdermal patch, liposomes, or other modes of administration. In one embodiment, a pump may be used (see Langer, supra; Sefton, CRC Crit. Ref. Biomed. Eng. 14:201 (1987); Buchwald et al„ Surgery 88:507 (1980); Saudek et al., N. Bngl. I Med. 321:574 (1989). In another embodiment, polymeric materials can be used. In yet ano er embodiment, a controlled release system can be placed in proximity to the therapeutic target, i.e., the brain, thus requiring only a fraction ofthe systemic dose (see, e.g., Goodson, in Medical Applications of Controlled
310
Release, supra, vol. 2, pp. 115-138 (1984). Preferably, a controlled release device is introduced into a subject in proximity to the site of inappropriate immune activation or a tumor. Other controlled release systems are discussed in the review by Langer (Science 249:1527-1533 (1990).

Examples are; sterile liquids such as water and oils, with or without the addition of a surfactant and other pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvants. Illustrative oils are those of petroleum, animal, vegetable, or synthetic origin, for example, peanut oil, soybean oil, or mineral oil. In general, water, saline, aqueous dextrose and related sugar solutions, and glycols such as propylene glycols or polyethylene glycol are preferred liquid carriers, particularly for injectable solutions.
[00078] The preparation of pharmaceutical compositions which contain an active component is well understood in the art. Typically, such compositions are prepared as aerosols of the polypeptide delivered to the nasopharynx or as injectables, either as liquid solutions or suspensions, however, solid forms suitable for solution in, or suspension in, liquid prior to injection can also be prepared. The preparation can also be emulsified. The active therapeutic ingredient is often mixed with excipients that are pharmaceutically acceptable and compatible with the active ingredient.

16310
isotopic labels, fluorescent labels, enzyme labels, chemiluminescent labels, biolvrminescent labels, free radical labels, or bacteriophage labels, using techniques known in the art. Examples of radioisotopic labels are .sup.3 H, .sup.125 I, .sup.131 I, .sup.35 S, .sup.14 C, etc. Examples of non-radioactive isotopic labels are .sup.55 Mm .sup.56 Fe, etc. Examples of fluorescence labels are fluorescent labels which are directly labeled with the preferred fluorescence label, or fluorescent labels which are indirectly labeled with the preferred fluorescence label. In the last case, the preferred fluorescence label is conjugated to a secondary antibody, which is directed against the first antibody, such as an anti species Ig antibody. Typical fluorescent labels include, but are not limited to a fluorescein label, an isothiocyanate label, a rhodamine label, a phycoerythrin label, etc, for example fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC, International Biological Supplies, Melbourne, FL), rhodamine, phycoerythrin (P.E., Coulter Corp., Hialeah, FL)„ phycocyanin, alophycocyanin, phycoerythrin-cyanin dye 5 (PECy5, Coulter), label, a phycocyanin label, an allophycocyanin label, an O-phthaldehyde label, a fluorescamine and Texas Red.
[00093] Examples of enzyme labels include alkaline phosphatase, beta-galactøsidase, glucose-6-phosphate debydrogenase, maleate dehydrogenase, and peroxidase. Two principal types of enzyme immunoassay are the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the homogeneous enzyme immunoassay, also known as enzyme-multiplied immunoassay (EMIT, Syva Corporation, Palo Alto, CA), In the ELISA system, separation may be achieved, for example, by the use of antibodies coupled to a solid phase. The EMIT system depends on deactivation ofthe enzyme in the tracer-antibody complex; the activity can thus be measured without the need for a separation step.
[00094] Particularly suitable labels include those, which permit analysis by flow cytometry, e.g., fluorochromes. Other suitable detectable labels include those useful in colorimetric enzyme systems, e. g„ horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and alkaline phosphatase (AP). Other proximal enzyme systems are known to those of skill in the art, including hexokinase in conjunction with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase.

[00095] Additionally, chemiluminescent compounds may be used as labels. Chemilurainescent labels, such as green fluorescent proteins, blue fluorescent proteins, and variants thereof are known. Also bioluminescence or chemiluminescence can be detected using, respectively, NAD oxidoreductase with luciferase and substrates NADH and FNIN or peroxidase with luminoJ and substrate peroxide. Typical chemiluminescent compounds include luminol, isoluminol, aromatic acridinium esters, imidazoles, acridinium salts, and oxalate esters. Similarly, biolu inescent compounds may be utilized for labelling, the bioluminescent compounds including luciferin, luciferase, and aequorin. Once labeled, the antibody may be employed to identify and quantify immunologic counterparts (antibody or aπtigenic polypeptide) utilizing techniques well-known to the art.
[00096] The following examples are presented in order to more fully illustrate the preferred embodiments of the invention. They should in no way be construed, however, as limiting the broad scope ofthe invention.

[Duane insert]
[000103] The in-vitro activity of he SARM compounds, specifically compound VII, demonstrated high androgen receptor .binding affinity (Ki = 7,5 nM). Animal studies with the SARM compounds, specifically compound V, demonstrated that it is a potent androgenic and anabolic nonsteroidal agent. Four groups of rats were used for these studies: (1) intact controls, (2) castrated controls, (3) castrated animals treated with testosterone propionate (100 μg/day), and (4) castrated animals treated with compound V (1000 μg/day), Testosterone and compound VII were delivered at a constant rate for 14 days via subcutaneous osmotic pumps.
[000104] The results of these studies are shown in Figure 1. Castration significantly reduced the weight of androgenic (e.g., prostate and seminal vesicles) and anabolic (e.g., levator ani muscle) tissues, but had little effect on animal body weight (BW). Treatment of castrated animals with testosterone propionate or compound VII maintained the weight of androgenic tissues to the same degree. Compound VII had similar androgenic activity as testosterone propionate (i.e., the prostate and seminal vesicle weights were the same), but much greater efficacy as an anabolic agent. Compound VII showed greater anabolic activity than testosterone propionate at the doses tested (i.e., the levator ani muscle maintained the same weight as intact control animals and was greater than that observed for testosterone). The experiments presented herein are the first in-vivo results which demonstrate tissue-selective androgenic and anabolic activity (i.e., differing androgenic arid anabolic potency) of a nonsteroidal ligand for the androgen receptor.

EXAMPLE 2
Nonsteroidal Ligands with Androgenic and Anabolic Activity
[000105] The in-vivo efficacy and acute toxicity of four novel nonsteroidal androgens (compounds IV, V, VI and VII) in rats was examined. In-vitro assays established that these compounds bind the androgen receptor with very high affinity. The structures and names ofthe four compounds are presented below:
GTx-01 R= F
GTx-015 R OCH3
GTx-016 R OC2Hs
GTx-017 R-NHCOCH3
EXPERIMENTAL METHODS
[000106] Materials. The S-isomers of compounds GTx-014 (compound IV), GTx-015 (compound V), GTx-016 (compound VI) and GTx-007 (compound VII wherein R is
NHCOCH3) and the R-isomer of GTx-014 were synthesized in accordance with the scheme as set forth in Figure 9. Testosterone propionate (TP), polyethylene glycol 300
(PEG300, reagent grade) and neutral buffered formalin (10% w/v) were purchased from
16310
Sigma Chemical Company (St Louis, MO). Alzet osmotic pumps (model 2002) were purchased from Alza Corp. (Palo Alto, CA),
[000107] Animals. Immature male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 90 to lOOg, were purchased from Harlan Biosciences (Indianapolis, IN). The animals were maintained on a 12-hour light-dark cycle with food and water available ad libitum. The animal protocol was reviewed and approved by the Institutional Laboratory Animal Care and Use
Committee.
[000108] Study Design. Rats were randomly distributed into twenty-nine (29) groups, with 5 animals per group. Treatment groups are described in Table 1. One day prior to the start of drug treatment, animals in groups 2 through 29 were individually removed from the cage, weighed and anesthetized with an intraperitoneal dose of ketamine/xylazine (87/13 mg/kg; approximately I mL per kg). When appropriately anesthetized (i.e., no response to toe pinch), the animals' ears were marked for identification purposes. Animals were then placed on a sterile pad and their abdomen and scrotum washed with betadine and 70% alcohol. The testes were removed via a midline scrotal incision, with sterile suture being used to ligate supra-testicular tissue prior to surgical removal of each testis. The surgical wound site was closed with sterile stainless steel wound clips, and the site cleaned with betadine. The animals were allowed to recover on a sterile pad (until able to stand) and then returned to their cage.
[000109] Twenty-four hours later, animals in groups 2 through 29 were re-anesthetized with ketamine/xylazine, and an Alzet osmotic pumρ(s) (model 2002) was placed subcutaneouly in the scapular region. In this instance, the scapular region was shaved and cleaned (betadine and alcohol) and a small incision (I cm) made using a sterile scalpel. The osmotic pump was inserted and the wound closed with a sterile stainless steel wound clip. Animals were allowed to recover and were returned to their cage. Osmotic pumps contained the appropriate treatment (designated in Table 1) dissolved in polyethylene glycol 300 (PEG300). Osmotic pumps were filled with the appropriate solution one day prior to implantation. Animals were monitored daily for signs of acute toxicity to drug treatment (e.g., lethargy, rough coat).
16310
[000110] After 14 days of drug treatment, rats were anesthetized with ketamine/xylazine. Animals were then sacrificed by exsanguinations under anesthesia, A blood sample was collected by venipuncture ofthe abdominal aorta, and submitted for complete blood cell analysis. A portion of the blood was placed in a separate tube, centrifuged at 12,000g for 1 minute, and the plasma layer removed and frozen at -20°C. The ventral prostates, seminal vesicles, levator ani muscle, liver, kidneys, spleen, lungs, and heart were removed, cleared of extraneous tissue, weighed, and placed in vials containing 10% neutral buffered formalin. Preserved tissues were sent to GTx, Inc. for histopathological analysis.
[000111] For data analysis, the weights of all organs were normalized to body weight, and analyzed for any statistical significant difference by single-factor ANOVA, The weights of prostate and seminal vesicle were used as indexes for evaluation of androgenic activity, and the levator ani muscle weight was used to evaluate the anabolic activity.
RESULTS
[000112] The androgenic and anabolic activities the S isomers of compounds GTx-014, GTx-015, GTx-016 and GTx-007, and the R isomer of GTx-014 were examined in a castrated rat model after 14 days of administration. Testosterone propionate, at increasing doses, was used as the positive control of anabolic and androgenic effects,
[000113] As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the weights of prostate, seminal vesicle, and levator ani muscle in castrated, vehicle-treated rats decreased significantly, due to the ablation of endogenous androgen production. Exogenous administration of testosterone propionate, an androgenic and anabolic steroid, increased the weights of prostate, seminal vesicle, and levator ani muscle in castrated rats in a dose-dependent manner. The R-isomer of GTx-014, and S-isomers of GTx-015 and GTx-016 showed no effect on the weights of prostate, seminal vesicle, and levator ani muscle in castrated animals (data not shown). The S-isomers of GTx-007 (Figure 2: S-GTx-007) and GTx-014 (Figure 3; S-GTx-014) resulted in dose-dependent increases in prostate, seminal vesicle and levator ani muscle weights. Compared with testosterone propionate, S-GTx-007
16310
showed lower potency and intrinsic activity in increasing the weights of prostate and seminal vesicle, but a greater potency and intrinsic activity in increasing the weight of levator ani muscle. Particularly, S-GTx-007, at a dose as low as 0.3 mg/day, was able to maintain the levator ani muscle weight of castrated animals in the same level as that of intact animals. Thus, S-GTx-007 is a potent nonsteroidal anabolic agent with less androgenic activity but more anabolic activity than testosterone propionate. This is a significant improvement over previous claims, in that this compound selectively stimulates muscle growth and other anabolic effects while having less effect on the prostate and seminal vesicles. This may be particularly relevant in aging men with concerns related to the development or progression of prostate cancer.
[0001 4] GTx-014 was less potent than GTx-007, but showed greater tissue selectivity (compare effects on the prostate and seminal vesicles in Figures 2 and 3). GTx-014 significantly increased levator ani muscle weights, but showed little to no ability to stimulate prostate and seminal vesicle growth (i.e., the prostate and seminal vesicle weights were less than 20% of that observed in intact animals or in animals treated with testosterone propionate).
[000115] Results showed that none o the examined compounds produced significant effect on body weight or the weights of other organs (i.e., liver, kidneys, spleen, lungs and heart). Nor did any compound produce any signs of acute toxicity, as gauged by diagnostic hematology tests and visual examination of animals receiving treatments. Importantly, GTx-007 did not suppress the production of luteinizing hormone (LH) or follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) at a dose of 0.3 mg/day (i.e., a dose that exhibited maximal anabolic effects).
[000116] In summary, S-GTx-007 exhibited exceptional anabolic activity in animals by maintaining the eight of levator ani muscle after removal of endogenous androgen. This discovery represents major progress towards the development of therapeutically useful nonsteroidal androgens, and a major improvement (i.e., tissue selectivity and potency) over previous drugs in this class. S-GTx-014 and S-GTx-007 showed selective anabolic activity in comparison with testosterone propionate, an androgenic and anabolic
6310
steroid. The tissue-selective activity is actually one of the advantages of nonsteroidal androgens in terms of anabolic-related applications.
[000117] Despite similarities in structure and in-vitro functional activity, the S-isomers of compounds GTx-014, GTx-015, GTx-016, and GTx-007 exhibited profound differences in terms of their in-vivo activity. GTx-007 the most efficacious androgenic and anabolic activity in animals, with the anabolic activity greater than that of testosterone propionate. GTx-014 showed a small degree of androgenic activity, but an anabolic activity comparable to testosterone propionate. In contrast, GTx-015 and GTx- 016 failed to produce any androgenic or anabolic activity in-vivo.
[000118] These studies show the discovery of two members (GTx-014 and GTx-007, compounds, compounds II and V respectively) of a new class of selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMS) that demonstrate potent anabolic effects (e.g., muscle growth) with less androgenic activity (e.g., prostatic growth). This new class of drugs has several advantages over non-selective androgens, including potential therapeutic applications in males and females for modulation of fertility, erythropoiesis, osteoporosis, sexual libido and in men with or at high risk for prostate cancer.
[000119] Further, Figures 7 and 8 demonstrate the effects of GTx-014 and GTx-007 on LH and FSH levels in rats. These results further demonstrate the novelty of these SARMs, due to their differential effects on these reproductive hormones, thus demonstrating the tissue-specific pharmacologic activity. In Figure 7, LH levels in castrated animals treated with TP and GTx-014 were significantly lower than those of untreated animals (i.e., castrated controls) at doses greater than or equal to 0.3 mg/day. However, higher doses (i.e., 0.5 mg/day or higher) of GTx-007 were required before significant decreases in LH levels were observed. Thus, GTx-007 does not suppress LH levels at doses that are capable of eliciting maximal stimulation of levator ani muscle growth, In Figure 8, FSH levels in castrated animals treated with GTx-014 were significantly lower than those of untreated animals (i.e., castrated controls) at doses of 0.5 mg/day or higher. Similarly, lower FSH levels were observed in animals treated with TP. However, only this difference was only significant at a dose of 0.75 mg/day. FSH
310
levels in animals treated with GTx-007 were not significantly different from those of untreated animals at any dose level tested. Thus, GTx-007 does not suppress FSH levels at doses that are capable of eliciting maximal stimulation of levator ani muscle growth.

Pharmacokinetics of GTx-007 in Dogs
[000120] The pharmacokinetics of S-GTx-007, a novel selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM), were characterized in beagle dogs. A four-treatment, four-period crossover design was utilized in the study, which involved a total of six beagle dogs, three of each gender. Each animal received a 3 mg/kg IV dose, a 10 mg/kg IN dose, a 10 mg/kg PO dose in solution, and a 10 mg/kg PO dose in capsule, in a randomly assigned order. There was an one-week washout period between treatments. Plasma samples were collected for up to 72 hr after drug administration. Plasma S-GTx-007 concentrations were analyzed by a validated HPLC method. The clearance (CL), volume of distribution (Vss), half-life (Tι/2), and other pharmacokinetic parameters were determined by noncompartmental methods. Results showed that S-GTx-007 was cleared from dog plasma with a terminal T1/2 of about 4 hr and a CL of 4-4 mL/min/kg after IV administration. Figures 4, 5, and 6 show the plasma concentration-time profiles of S- GTx-007 after administration of an intravenous solution, oral solution, and oral capsule, respectively. The pharmacokinetics were dose- and gender-independent, The oral bioavailability of S-GTx-007 varied with the dosage form, and averaged 38% and 19% for solution and capsule, respectively. Thus, S-GTx-007 demonstrated moderate half- life, slow clearance and moderate bioavailability in beagle dogs, identifying it as the first of a new class of orally bioavailable tissue-selective androgen receptor modulators.
EXAMPLE 4
GTx-007 Analysis by HPLC
[000121] A reversed phase high pressure liquid chromatograph (HPLC) assay was
16310
developed to quantitate GTx-007 concentrations in dog plasma. Dog blood samples were obtained by venipuncture and centrifuged at lOOOg for 15 minutes. Samples were stored frozen at -20°C until analysis. Individual samples were rapidly thawed and an aliquot (0,5 ml) was spiked with internal standard (20 μl of a 200 μg/ml aqueous solution of CM-ΪI-87). An aliquot of 1 ml of acetonitrile was added to the samples to precipitate plasma proteins. The samples were vortexed and then centrifuged at lOOOg for 15 minutes. The supernatant was decanted into glass extraction tubes and 7.5 ml of ethyl acetate was added. The extraction mixture was left at room temperamre for 20 minutes, and vortexed several times during this interval. The samples were then centrifuged at lOOOg for 10 minutes, and the organic phase was removed and placed in conical- bottomed glass tubes. The organic phase was evaporated under nitrogen. The samples were reconstituted in 200 μl of mobile phase (35:65 acetomtrile:water) and transferred to an autosampler vial for HPLC injection (Waters 717 plus autosampler, Waters Corp., Milford, MA). The isocratic mobile phase of 35% (v/v) acetonitrile in water was pumped at a flow rate of 1 mlΛnin (Model 510, Waters Corp.), The stationary phase was a C18 reversed phase column (Novapak CIS, 3.9 x 150 mm). Analytes were monitored with UV detection at 270 nm (Model 486 absorbance detector, Waters Corp.). Retention times for GTx-007 and CM-II-87 were l l.l and 16.9 minutes, respectively. Chromatography data was collected and analyzed using Millennium software. Plasma concentrations of GTx-007 in each sample were determined by comparison to calibration curves. Calibration curves were constructed by adding known amounts of GTx-007 to dog plasma. Final GTx-007 concentrations in dog plasma samples used in the calibration curves were 0.08, 0.2, 0.4, 2, 4, 10, and 20 μg/ml. Calibration curves were linear over this concentration range and exhibited correlation coefficients (r2) of 0.9935 or greater. Intra- and inter-day coefficients of variation for the standards ranged from 6.4% for 0.08 μg/ml to 7.9% for 20 μg/ml.
[000122] Melting points were determined on a Thomas-Hoover capillary melting point apparatus and are uncorrected. Infrared spectra were recorded on a Perkin Elmer System 2000 FT-IR. Optical rotations were determined on an Autopo]"3 HI Automatic
Polarimeter (Rudolph Research Model IH-589-10, Fairfield, New Jersey). Proton and carbon- 13 magnetic resonance spectra were obtained on a Broker AX 300 spectrometer
310
(300 and 75 MHz for Η and 13C, respectively). Chemical shift values were reported as parts per million (δ) relative to tetramethyjsilane (TMS), Spectral data were consistent with assigned structures. Mass spectra were determined on a Bruker-HP Esquire LC System. Elemental analyses were performed by Atlantic Microlab Inc. (Norcross, GA), and found values were within 0.4 % of the theoretical values. Routine thin-layer chromatography (TLC) was performed on silica gel on aluminum plates (silica gel 60 F 254, 20 x 20 cm, Aldrich Chemical Company Inc., Milwaukee, Wl), Flash chromatography was performed on silica gel (Merck, grade 60, 230-400 mesh, 60). Tetrahydrofuran (THF) was dried by distillation over sodium metal, Acetonitrile (MeCN) and methylene chloride (CH2C12) were dried by distillation from P205.
