Description

TITLE OF THE INVENTION
MUSCARINE ANTAGONISTS
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to control of ocular development in general and, more particularly, to the treatment of the eye to prevent and/or arrest the development of myopia (nearsightedness). Approximately one of every four persons suffer from myopia, i.e., an elongation of the eye along the visual axis. In particular, myopia afflicts 10% to 75% of the youth of the world, depending upon race, geographic distribution and level of education. Myopia is not a trivial maldevelopment of the eye. In its pathologic form, the sclera continues to grow and as result the retina stretches and degenerates resulting in permanent blindness.
Inheritance, environmental forces such as diet, sun intake, and substantial eye use, etc., are but a few theories that have been postulated to explain the on-set of myopia. In that regard, preventive measures such as eye rest, eye exercise, eye glasses, contact lens and drug and surgical therapies have been proposed. However, these measures are neither ideal nor risk-free. The surgical therapies (e.g. corneal surgery using excimer lasers or conventional knives) attempted for this condition are drastic and often unsuccessful. Moreover, neither of the therapies (excimer lasers or conventional knives) are easily reversed or sufficiently predictable in their results. Complications from contact lens wear range from allergic reactions to permanent loss of vision due to corneal ulceration. Even with the complications associated with contact lens wear, there are roughly 24 million wearers in the United States, with the number expected to double in the next 3 years.
While eyeglasses eliminate most of the medical risks listed above, they are not an acceptable option as evidenced by the contact lens wearers who tolerate the frustration of contact lens wear.
One particular drug therapy utilized in the treatment of myopia involves the use of cycloplegics. Cycloplegics are topically administered drugs that relax the ciliary muscle of the eye, which is the muscle that focuses the eye by controlling lens dimensions. The classic cycloplegic drug is the belladonna alkaloid atropine, available for over a century. Atropine is a long-acting non-specific
antimuscarinic agent that antagonizes the action of the
neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh) at autonomic effector cells innervated by postganglionic cholinergic nerves of the
parasympathetic nervous system. However, use of atropine, is impractical in that it causes mydriasis (increase of pupil size) and its action on the ciliary muscle to inhibit ocular focusing impairs near visual work like reading. There is strong evidence that the receptors in the iris and ciliary muscle responsible for the side effects of atropine are of the M3 subtype. Additionally, studies have shown that muscarinic receptors in the retina of a variety of non-human species are comprised of m1 , m2 and m4 subtypes. Accordingly, a muscarinic antagonist with low m3 activity would be efficacious in prevention of the development of myopia without the undesirable side effects associated with the use of atropine.
There is now substantial evidence to link the posterior part of the eye, specifically image quality at the retina and hence an extension of the nervous system, to the postnatal regulation of ocular growth. There is significant evidence of myopia in an eye that is subjected to retinal image impairment. It has been shown that axial myopia can be experimentally induced, in either birds or primates, in an eye in which the retina is deprived of formed images, e.g., by suturing the eyelids or wearing an image diffusing goggle. The experimental myopia induced in birds or primates such as monkeys mimics, in many respects, the axial myopia of humans.
Thus, the phenomenon of an animal's vision process apparently contributes to the feedback mechanism by which postnatal ocular growth is normally regulated and refractive error is determined. This indicates that this mechanism is neural and likely originates in the retina. R. A. Stone, et al. have found a method of controlling the abnormal postnatal growth of the eye of a maturing animal, which comprises controlling the presence of a neurochemical, its agonist or antagonist, which neurochemical is found to be changed under conditions during maturation leading to abnormal axial length. See U.S. Pat. No. 4,066,772 and 5,284,843. Therein it is disclosed that retinal concentrations of dopamine were found to be reduced during such image deprivation and the ocular administration of a dopamine-related agent, e.g., apomorphine, a dopamine agonist, was found to inhibit or actually prevent the axial enlargement of the eye under conditions ordinarily leading to such enlargement.
There have also been recent advances made in the understanding of the cholinergic nervous system and the receptors thereto. Cholinergic receptors are proteins embedded in the wall of a cell that respond to the chemical acetylcholine. Particularly, it is now known that the cholinergic receptors are subdivided into nicotinic and muscarinic receptors and that the muscarinic receptors are not all of the same type. Recent literature indicates that there are at least five types of cholinergic muscarinic receptors (types ml through m5). Receptors of type ml are those present in abundance and thought to be enriched in the brain neural tissue and neural ganglia. The other receptors are concentrated in other tissues such as the heart, smooth muscle tissue or glands. While many
pharmacological agents interacting with muscarinic receptors influence several types, some agents are known to have a major effect on a single type of receptor with relative selectivity and other agents can have a relatively selective effect on a different single receptor. Still other agents may have a significant effect on more than one or even all types of receptors.
It is known, for example, that pirenzepine, (Gastrozepin, LS 519) 5, 11 -Dihydro-1 1-[4-methyl-1 -piperazinyl)acetyl]-6H-pyrido[2,3-b] benzodiazepin-6-one, and its
dihydrochloride are anticholinergic, antimuscarinic, and relatively selective for Ml receptors. See U.S. Pat. No. 5,122,522. It is also known that 4-DAMP (4-diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperadine methiodide) is a relatively selective antagonist for smooth muscle (ordinarily called M3 type but variously called type M2 or M3, as the current classification of receptors is in flux). Pirenzepine, being primarily an M1 antagonist, inhibits axial elongation, but is far less effective at pupil dilation than atropine or another cycloplegic agent. This makes it possible to suppress the development of myopia
without dilating the pupil and paralyzing the accommodation activity of the ciliary muscle. Additionally, the administration of a drug topically into the eye of a developing child for a long period of time makes it desirable to have a minimal likelihood of sensitization of the eye. Pirenzepine and atropine test positive in sensitization assays and this is an undesirable side effect.

procedures such as those described in the Examples section. The compounds of the present invention include, but are not limited by the following Tables (1-4).
The selectivity of the compounds can be measured by radioligand displacement from ml-m5 receptors expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CKO) as described in the Examples section. The functional activity of the compounds can be assessed by measuring the agonist induced contractile response on muscle tissue from rabbit vas deferens (M 1 ), the guinea pig left atria (M2), or the guinea pig ileum (M3) as described in the Examples section. The functional activity at the human muscarinic receptors can be assessed by measuring agonist induced phosphoinositide hydrolysis in CHO cells expressing the human ml and m3 receptors or agonist inhibition of foskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in CHO cells expressing the human m2 receptor as described in the Examples section. The instant compounds of this invention are useful in treating and/or preventing the development of myopia. Therapy to inhibit axial-elongation myopia during maturation can be
administered by the use of the agent in eye drops. Indeed, in the vast majority of cases, treatment agents are administered to human eyes by the application of eye drops. Eye drops are typically made up at a concentration of active agent between about 0.1 and 2% in the ophthalmic medium. A 0.5%-2% solution of the instant muscarinic antagonist in water would be a likely concentration for clinical use. A pH of about 4.5 to about 7.5 is expected to be acceptable as an ophthalmic drop and practical in terms of known solubility and stability of piperidines. Phosphate buffering is also common for eye drops and is compatible with the instant muscarinic antagonist. A common regimen for application of eye drops is one to three times a day spaced evenly throughout waking hours. More effective agents may require fewer applications or enable the use of more dilute solutions. Alternatively, ointments and solid inserts are now coming into increased use in clinical practice. These aid the ocular
penetration of the drug. It is, of course, also possible to administer the above-described active agents in therapeutically effective amounts and dosages in pills, capsules, or other preparations of systemic administration.
In experiments in animals where axial myopia has been experimentally induced by depriving the retina of formed images, it has been noted by others in primates that amblyopia was also experimentally and coincidentally induced. Amblyopia is evidenced by poor visual acuity in the eye resulting in poor visual
performance. Normally, visual acuity improves during maturation. It is known that amblyopia may occur in humans from unknown causes or as part of strabismus. It is possible that administration of therapeutically effective amounts and dosages of the instant
muscarinic antagonist might prevent or inhibit the development of permanent or persistent amblyopia in maturing humans with decreased likelihood of sensitization of the eye. It is also possible that humans who have already developed amblyopia from other or even unknown causes might be aided by similar therapeutic treatment with the aforementioned agents.
The following examples are provided in order that this invention might be more fully understood; they are not to be construed as limitative of the invention. The compounds are characterized analytically using techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry, chromatography and the like.

1 ,3-dihydro-1 -( 1 -{1 -[2-(5-pyrimidinyl)-prop-2-yl]piperidin-4-yl}piperidin-4-yl)-2H-benzimidazol-2-one
Step 1 : To a stirred solution of 4.06 g of 5-pyrimidineacetic acid (F. Zymalkowski and E. Reimann, Arch. Pharm. 1966 299 362-7) and triethylamine (6.55 g) in methylene chloride (150 mL) at 0 °C was added ethyl chloroformate (6.38 g) followed by 4-dimethylaminopyridine (0.72 g). The mixture was stirred at 0 °C for 1 h, then the solution was diluted with methylene chloride (200 mL) and saturated ammonium chloride ( 150 mL) was added. After removal of the organic phase, the aqueous layer was extracted with methylene chloride (2 X 200 mL) and the combined organic extracts were dried over MgSO4 and concentrated to give 7.33 g of a crude oil.
Purification by column chromatography, eluting with hexane; 50% ethyl acetate gave ethyl 5-pyrimidinylacetate (3.98 g) as a colorless oil. Step 2: A solution of ethyl 5-pyrimidinylacetate (3.98 g) and
iodomethane (17.0 g) in dry THF (200 mL) was added to a solution of lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (60 mmol) in dry THF (200 mL) at -70 °C at such a rate that the temperature did not rise above -65 °C. The reaction mixture was stirred under argon at -70 °C for 2 h, then allowed to warm to room temperature overnight and quenched with sulfuric acid (2.94 g) in water (100 mL). Saturated ammonium chloride (100 mL) was added, the THF layer was removed, and the aqueous phase was extracted with ethyl acetate (200 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over MgSO4 and concentrated to give 4.64 g of ethyl 2-methyl-2-(5-pyrimidinyl)propionate as a colorless oil.
Step 3: A mixture of ethyl 2-methyl-2-(5-pyrimidinyl)propionate (4.64 g), 1.0 N lithium hydroxide (26 mL) and THF ( 100 mL) was heated to reflux under argon for 26 h. The mixture was allowed to cool, adjusted to pH 7 with acetic acid, and concentrated to dryness to give 4.1 1 g of lithium 2-methyl-2-(5-pyrimidinyl)propionate as a pale solid.
Step 4: A mixture of lithium 2-methyl-2-(5-pyrimidinyl)propionate (4.1 1 g), diphenylphosphoryl azide (13.2 g), triethylamine (4.86 g) and anhydrous tert-butyl alcohol (100 mL) was heated to reflux for 6 h, then allowed to cool and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was partitioned between chloroform (250 mL) and water ( 100 mL), and the chloroform was extracted, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated under reduced pressure. Chromatography on silica gel, eluting with
chloroform; 5% methanol gave a partially purified sample of 2-(5-pyrimidinyl)-2-propylisocyanate as a colorless oil.
Step 5: The crude 2-(5-pyrimidinyl)-2-propylisocyanate was treated with a mixture of 1.0 N sodium hydroxide (26 mL), water (20 mL) and THF ( 100 mL) at 0 °C for 30 min, then the mixture was poured into ethyl acetate (200 mL) and water (100 mL). The aqueous layer was acidified to pH 5 with 10% citric acid, extracted twice with ethyl acetate, and then adjusted to pH 1 1 , saturated with sodium chloride, and extracted with methylene chloride (3 X 250 mL). The combined methylene chloride extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo to give 2-(5-pyrimidinyl)-2-propylamine (950 mg) as a colorless oil.
Step 6: To a stirred mixture of 2-(5-pyrimidinyl)-2-propylamine (660 mg), ethanol (9 mL) and K2CO3 (665 mg) heated to reflux was added dropwise over 30 min, a solution of 1 ,1-dimethyl-4-oxopiperidinium iodide (1.9 g) in water (36 mL). When the addition was complete, the mixture was heated under reflux for an additional 2 h, cooled, basified to pH 10 with Na2CO3 and extracted with ethyl acetate (3 ¥ 100 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over MgSO4 and
concentrated under reduced pressure. Column chromatography over silica gel, eluting with a methylene chloride; 5% methanol gave 360 mg of 1 -(2-(5-pyrimidinyl)-prop-2-yl)-4-oxopiperidine as an oil: 1 H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) 9.13 (s, 1H), 8.95 (s, 2H), 2.79 (t, 4H), 2.44 (t, 4H), 1.47 (s, 6H).

Radioligand Binding Studies
The affinity of muscarinic antagonists for ml-m5
receptors expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO) were determined using the technique described by Dorje et al., J.
Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 256: 727-733 (1991).
When 80- 100% confluent, CHO cells were harvested, and transferred to centrifuge tubes containing CHO buffer (20 mM HEPES at pH 7.4 containing 5mM MgCl2). The cells were
homogenized using a Brinkman Polytron homogenizer for 30
seconds at a setting of 5, on ice. The homogenate was centrifuged at 40,000 × g for 15 minutes at 4°C in a Beckman J2-21 M centrifuge.
The supernatant was discarded and the
homogenization/centrifugation step repeated once. Pelleted
membranes were resuspended in CHO buffer to a concentration of one flask harvested (75 cm2) per mL of buffer, mixed well and aliquoted in cryovials ( 1mL/vial). The vials were stored at -70°C until used in the assay. The binding incubation was done in
polypropylene macrowell tube strips in a final volume of 0.5 mL of HEPES buffer (20 mM; pH 7.4 containing 5 mM MgCl2) containing 0.1 mL of cell membrane suspension, 3H-N-methylscopolamine (NEN Corporation, NET-636, 70-87 Ci/mmole) at a final
concentration of approximately 0.2 nM and the competing drug in a varying range of concentrations or vehicle. After the addition of the cell homogenate the tubes were agitated on a vortex mixer and then placed in a water bath at 32°C. After 90 minutes of incubation, the membranes were harvested on a Skatron filtermat (#1 1734) or a Wallac filtermat (#205-404) using three washes of HEPES buffer (4°C). The radioactivity on the filters was counted in a Packard 2200CA scintillation counter or in a Wallac 1205 Betaplate scintillation counter. Specific binding was defined as the difference in binding observed in the presence and absence of 10 micromolar atropine and accounted for at least 80% of total binding. Ki values were calculated using the program LIGAND. Compounds displayed Ki values at m1 , m2 and m4 in the range of InM to 5,000 nM. All compounds described herein displayed typically greater than 300-fold less potency at the m3 receptor subtype, in the range of 300 nM to 1 14,000 nM. EXAMPLE 69 ml receptor antagonist activity on the rabbit vas deferens
The technique described by Feifel et al., Brit. J.
Pharmacol. 99: 455-460 (1990) was used as follows: Male Hazelton New Zealand White rabbits weighing 1.5-3 kg, are euthanized
(phenobarbital sodium, 85 mg/kg. i. v.). An abdominal incision is made and the vas deferens are removed. The tissues are placed in a Petri dish containing oxygenated Krebs solution [NaCl, 1 18 mM; KCl, 4.7 mM; CaCl2, 2.5 mM; KH2PO4, 1.2 mM; MgSO4, 1.2 mM; NaHCO3, 25 mM; dextrose, 1 1 mM] warmed to 30°C. Each tissue is cut into three 2-cm segments: proximal to the prostate, a middle section, and distal to the prostate. Only the first two segments are used.Tissue segments are attached to platinum electrodes with 4-0 surgical silk and placed in a 10 mL jacketed tissue bath containing Krebs buffer at 30°C, bubbled with 5% CO2 / 95% O2. The tissues are connected to a Statham-Gould force transducer; 0.75 gram of tension is applied and the tissues are electrically stimulated. [EFS parameters are 0.05 Hz; 0.5 ms duration; voltage is set to 30% of 50 V at 25 ohms and increased until a supramaximal voltage is achieved.] The contractions are recorded on a Gould strip chart recorder. The tissues are washed every 20 minutes and allowed to equilibrate. A concentration response curve to the selective ml receptor agonist McN-A-343 is determined. Tissues are washed every 20 minutes for 60 minutes. The vehicle or compound is added to the bath and the tissues are incubated for 30 minutes, then the McN-A-343 concentration response is repeated. EC50 values are determined for both vehicle and tissues treated with the compound before and after treatment. Antagonist dissociation constants (Kb) are calculated by the dose-ratio method. Compounds displayed Kb values at m l generally consistent with the radioligand binding assay described in Example 30 in the range of 5 to 100 nM.

M3 receptor antagonist activity on the guinea pig ileum longitudinal muscle
The technique described by Feifel et al., Brit. J.
Pharmacol. 99: 455-460 (1990) was used as follows: Duncan-Hartley guinea pigs (Hazelton) weighing 300-600 g, are asphyxiated with CO2. The abdomen is opened and the caecum and the distal end of the ileum are identified. The ileum is removed and 5 cm of the terminal end (proximal to the caecum) is discarded. The lumen of the remainder is flushed with oxygenated Krebs solution [NaCl, 1 18 mM; KCl, 4.7 mM; CaCl2, 2.5 mM: KH2PO4, 1.2 mM; MgSO4 , 1.2 mM; NaHCO3, 25 mM; dextrose, 1 1 mM] warmed to 30°C. The ileum is cut into 2.5 cm segments and each segment is mounted on a glass pipette. A scalpel is used to lightly cut the surface of the tissue and a cotton swab used to tease the longitudinal muscle free from the underlying circular muscle. Longitudinal muscle segments are attached to glass tissue holders with 4-0 surgical silk and placed in a 10 mL jacketed tissue bath containing Krebs buffer at 30°C, bubbled with 5% CO2 / 95% O2. The tissues are connected to a Statham-Gould force transducer. One gram of tension is applied and the contractions are recorded on a Gould strip chart recorder. The tissues are washed every 20 minutes and allowed to equilibrate. A concentration response curve to the agonist carbachol is determined. Tissues are washed every 20 minutes for 60 minutes. The vehicle or compound is added to the bath and the tissues are incubated for 30 minutes, then the carbachol concentration response is repeated. EC50 values are determined for both vehicle and tissues treated with the compound before and after treatment. Antagonist dissociation constants (Kb) are calculated by the dose-ratio method. Compounds displayed Kb values at M3 generally consistent with the radioligand binding assay described in Example 30 in the range of 3900 to 24000 nM.
EXAMPLE 72 ml and m3 receptor antagonist activity on the human muscarinic receptors expressed in CHO cells
Preconfluent CHO cells were labeled for 24 hours with 4 μCi/mL of [3H] myo-inositol (specific activity 15-20 Ci /mmole). The cells were detached from flasks using 1 mM EDTA in phosphate buffer saline, centrifuged for 5 minutes at 200x g, and resuspended in assay buffer (1 16 mM NaCl; 10 mM LiCl; 4.7 mM KCl; 1.2 mM MgSO4 ; 2.5 mM CaCl2; 1.2 mM KH2PO4; 5 mM NaHCO3; 1 1 mM dextrose, 20 mM HEPES; pH 7.4 at 37°C) to the desired volume. Four hundred microliters of the cell suspension (approximately 2 X 106 cells) was added to tubes containing buffer or compound and left at room temperature for 30 minutes. Muscarinic agonist (carbachol) was then added and the cells incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The reaction was stopped using an acid solution (12% perchloric acid / 3 mM EDTA / 1 mM diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid) and the tubes placed on ice for 15 minutes. The samples were then
neutralized with 3M KOH / 0.25 M 2-(N-morpholino)ethane sulfonic acid / 0.25 M 3-(N-morpholino) propane sulfonic acid and
centrifuged at 3000x g for 15 minutes. Five hundred microliters of each supernatant was diluted to 5.5 mL with water and the entire tube contents applied to anion exchange columns. The columns are sequentially washed with 5 mL of H2O, 15 mL of 60 mM ammonium formate / 5 mM borax and 8 mL of 200 mM ammonium formate / 5 mM borax. The radioactivity in the last eluate was determined by liquid scintillation counting and taken as the amount of [3H]-inositol monophosphate formed during the incubation. Two different types of experiments were performed: IC50 values for compounds where calculated using a fixed concentration of carbachol , or Kb values were generated by performing carbachol concentration-response curves in the absence and presence of a fixed concentration of compound. Compounds displayed Kb values at ml and m3 generally consistent with the radioligand binding assay described in Example 30 in the range of 1 to 100 nM at m 1 and 4,000 to 20,000 at m3.
EXAMPLE 73 m2 receptor antagonist activity on the human muscarinic receptors expressed in CHO cells
Preconfluent CHO cells were harvested using 1 mM
EDTA in phosphate buffer saline and washed one time by
centrifugation in a HEPES buffered physiological salt solution. The cell concentration was adjusted to 3.3 X 106 cells / mL in the HEPES buffer containing 1.3 micromolar isobutylmethylxanthine. Three hundred microliters of the cell suspension was added to tubes containing compound and incubated for 15 minutes at room
temperature. Muscarinic agonist (50 microliters of carbachol; 1 micromolar final concentration) was then added followed by 20 microliters of 200 μM forskolin and the tubes were incubated at 30°C for an additional 15 minutes. The reaction was stopped by placing the tubes in boiling water for 5 minutes. The tubes were cooled on ice and then centrifuged at 12,000 xg for 10 minutes. Fifty microliters of each supernatant was then analyzed for cAMP using a commercially available radioimmunoassay kit following the manufacturer's instructions. Two different types of experiments were performed: IC50 values for compounds where calculated using a fixed concentration of carbachol , or Kb values were generated by performing carbachol concentration-response curves in the absence and presence of a fixed concentration of compound. Compounds displayed Kb values at m2 generally consistent with the radioligand binding assay described in Example 30 in the range of 1 to 100 nM.
