Abstract
The invention concerns a pharmaceutical composition comprising an efficient amount of a compound selected among the compounds of formulae (I) and (Ia) wherein: R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 and R7 are as defined in Claim 1. Said compounds have interesting cytotoxic properties leading to a therapeutic use as antitumoral medicines.
Description
WO 01/12631 PCT/FR00/02312 Ascididemin derivatives and therapeutic uses thereof The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions based on polyaromatic compounds that are useful especially as antitumor drugs.
In 1999, the cytotoxic treatments (chemotherapy) used to reduce the size of cancer tumors, to curtail the development of the tumor process or even, in all to few cases still, to eliminate the lumps of cancerous cells and the risk of metastases, combine recently introduced chemical substances with others that have been used for several decades. For example, 5-fluorouracil which has been known for nearly 40 years as one of the most active treatments in colorectal cancer, can be replaced one or other of the specific topoisomerase I inhibitors (irinotecan or topotecan) when the tumor is no longer sensitive to 5-FU. More generally, the therapeutic arsenal available to treat colorectal tumors will also be enriched by the availability of oxaliplatin, novel in situ "donors" of 5-FU or selective inhibitors of thymidylate synthase. This co-existence is not limited to the treatment of colorectal cancers, since the chemotherapy of cancer of the breast, of the ovaries or of the lungs now also widely uses the family of taxane derivatives (paclitaxel and docetaxel). The need for treatments that are more effective and better tolerated, thus improving the survival and the quality of life of the patients, is imperative since, taking once again the example of colorectal tumors, it has been estimated Parker, T. Tong, S. Bolden et al., CA Cancer J. Clin., 1997) that in the United States alone, more than 131 000 new cases were diagnosed in 1997, 54 000 of which wre responsible for the death of the patients.
It is the knowledge of this situation which has incited the inventors to become interested in a family of polyaromatic compounds that are still relatively poorly 2 studied, identified in Ascidians of warm seawaters, to develop a novel medicinal chemistry intended to select synthetic compounds derived from a design/chemical modulation study and having significant therapeutic cytotoxic activity.
The seas and oceans which cover more than 70% of the surface of the globe harbor marine plants and sponges whose gradual systematic pharmacognosic study shows that these living species can contain complex alkaloids that have advantageous pharmacological properties. For example, the sponges Cryptotheca crypta and Halichondria okadai have been the subject of extensive studies since the discovery of the presence, in their cells, of cytarabine or of halichondrine B. This is likewise the case for the family of tunicates, since the isolation of aplidin from the tunicate Aplidium albicans which lives in the Balearic islands (Spain).
Alkaloids of tetrahydroisoquinolone structure have been isolated from the ascidian Ecteinascidia turbinata.
Among these, ecteinascidin-743 has been the subject of extensive preclinical studies Igbicka et al., NCI-EORTC symposium, 1998; Abst. 130 p. 34), and also clinical trials intended to define its therapeutic potential as an anticancer drug Bowman et al., NCI-EORTC symposium, 1998; Abst. 452 p. 118; M. Villanova-Calero et al., NCI-EORTC symposium, 1998; Abst. 453 p. 118; M.J.X. Hillebrand et al., NCI-EORTC symposium, 1998; Abst. 455 p. 119; E. Citkovic et al., NCI-EORTC symposium, 1998; Abst. 456 p. 119) Novel pentacyclic acridine derivatives have also been the subject of pharmacochemical studies Hagan et al., J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Transf., 1997; 1: 2739-2746).
Another natural alkaloid of marine origin, ascididemin, has been extracted from the tunicate Didemnum sp.
Kobayashi et al., Tetrahedron, lett. 1988; 29: 1177-80) and from the ascidian Cystodytes dellechiajei Bonnard et al., Anti-cancer Drug design 1995; 3 333-46). Ascididemin possesses antiproliferative properties demonstrated on the model of mouse leukemia (lines P388 or L1210) and described by F. Schmitz et al. Org. Chem. 1991; 56: 804-8), B. Lindsay et al.
(Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 1995; 5: 739-42) and J. Kobayashi et al. (Tetrahedron lett. 1988; 29: 1177and on the model of human leukemia described by I. Bonnard et al. (Anti-cancer Drug design 1995; 333-46). Several routes for synthesizing ascididemin have been reported by various authors: F. Bracher et al. (Heterocycles 1989; 29: 2093-95), C.J. Moody et al.
(Tetrahedron Lett. 1992; 48: 3589-602) and G. Gellerman et al. (Synthesis 1994; 239-41).
Mention may also be made of 2-bromoleptoclinidone (according to the naming by S.J. Bloor et al. 1987) isolated from the ascidian Leptoclinides sp. by S.J. Bloor et al. Ann. Chem. Soc. 1987; 109: 6134-6) and synthesized by F. Bracher et al.
(H6t6rocycles 1989; 29: 2093-95) and then by M.E. Jung et al. (Heterocycles 1994; 39; 2: 767-778).
2-Bromoleptoclinidone shows cytotoxicity on the cellular model of leukemia with an EDso of 0.4 pg/ml.
The cytotoxic properties were confirmed by F. Bracher (Pharmazie 1997; 52: 57-60) both in vitro on sixty tumor cell lines in culture and in vivo on models of xenographs of human tumor cell lines (colon tumors SW- 620 and HTC116, renal tumor A498 and melanoma LOX IM VI) implanted into mice.
Other compounds derived from ascididemin, such as 11-hydroxy ascididemin, 11-methoxy ascididemin, 11-phenyl and 11-nitrophenyl ascididemin, 1-nitro and 3-nitro ascididemin and neocalliactin have been chemically described (according to the numbering by S.J. Bloor et al. 1987) by various teams such as those of F.J. Schmitz Org. Chem. 1991; 56: 804-8) and Y. Kitahara et al. (Heterocycles 1993; 36: 943-46; Tetrahedron Lett. 1997; 53, 17029-38), G. Gellerman et 4 al. (Tetrahedron lett. 1993; 34: 1827-30), S. Nakahara et al (Heterocycles 1993; 36: 1139-44), I. Spector et al. (US Patent Number: 5,432,172, Jul. 11, 1995).

The expression "addition salts with pharmaceutically acceptable acids" denotes salts which give the biological properties of the free bases, without having any adverse effects. These salts may be especially those formed with mineral acids, such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid or phosphoric acid; acidic metal salts, such as disodium 9 orthophosphate and monopotassium sulfate, and organic acids.
In general, the compounds of formula I are obtained according to the general reaction scheme described by F. Bracher et al. (Heterocycles 1989; 29: 2093-95) for ascididemin. According to this scheme, the compounds are prepared by oxidative amination of a 5,8-quinone substituted with a substituted ortho-aminoacetophenone, followed by cyclization of the diarylamine obtained (compounds of the formula II) into an intermediate tetracyclic quinone (compounds of formula III). The enamine formed by reaction of the compound of formula III with dimethylformamide diethyl acetal gives the final derivative by cyclization: Scheme I

(Heterocycles 1989; 29: 2093-95) and is referenced, in the present document, under the number CRL 8274.
Certain compounds may be prepared directly from ascididemin or from a compound of formula I used as a synthetic intermediate.
Thus, in particular, the compounds of formula I in which R 3 is a group -NRIoR 11 where Rio and/or R 11 are other than hydrogen, may be obtained from a compound of formula I in which R 3 is an -NH 2 group.
Similarly, the compounds of formula Ia may be obtained according to the general reaction scheme II. According to this scheme, the compounds are prepared by coupling a substituted chlorobenzoic acid and dimethoxyaniline to form the compounds of formula IIa. After conversion of the acid function to a methyl ketone, cyclization and then oxidation, an intermediate tricyclic quinone (compound of formula IIIa) is obtained. A Diels-Alder cycloaddition with a 1-azediene leads to the formation of a tetracyclic quinone (compound of formula IVa). The addition of dimethylformamide diethyl acetal to this quinone gives an enamine intermediate which is cyclized, in the presence of ammonium chloride, to the final compound of formula Ia.

The results of the pharmacological tests, presented below, demonstrate the cytotoxic qualities of the compounds of formulae I and Ia, and also the maximum tolerated doses. These data enable the therapeutic value of the claimed compounds to be assessed.
1 Determination of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) The evaluation of the maximum tolerated dose was performed on 4- to 6-week-old B6D2Fl/Jico mice. The compounds were administered intraperitoneally at increasing doses ranging from 2.5 to 160 mg/kg. The value of the MTD (expressed in mg/kg) is determined from the observation of the survival rate of the 47 animals over a 14-day period after a single administration of the products under consideration. The change in the weight of the animals is also monitored during this period. When the value of the MTD is greater than 160 mg/kg, the value of the MTD is considered as 160 mg/kg by default.
The results of the estimation of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) are collated in Table I below: 48 TABLE I Compounds CRL MTD (mg/kg) CRL 8274 (Ascididemin) CRL 8269 (2-bromoleptoclinidone) CRL 8323 (Example 1) CRL 8301 (Example 2) 160 CRL 8241 (Example 3) 160 CRL 8325 (Example 4) 160 CRL 8297 (Example 5) 160 CRL 8289 (Example 6) CRL 8344 (Example 7) 160 CRL 8248 (Example 8) 160 CRL 8347 (Example 9) 160 CRL 8292 (Example 13) 160 CRL 8290 (Example 12) CRL 8333 (Example 14) 160 CRL 8368 (Example 10) 160 CRL 8369 (Example 15) 160 CRL 8373 (Example 16) 160 CRL 8387 (Example 11) 160 CRL 8389 (Example 17) 160 CRL 8406 (Example 19) 160 CRL 8407 (Example 20) 160 CRL 8416 (Example 21) 160 CRL 8419 (Example 22) CRL 8418 (Example 23) CRL 8422 (Example 24) 160 CRL 8423 (Example 25) 160 The majority of the products described in the family of ascididemin or of its isomer do not show any direct toxicity (MTD 160 mg/kg) and may thus be used in vivo at high tissue concentrations, and thus at high doses.
49 2 Cytotoxic activity on tumor cell lines in culture The influence of the compounds of formulae I and Ia on neoplastic cells was evaluated using the MTT colorimetric test. The principle of the MTT test is based on the mitochondrial reduction by metabolically active live cells of the yellow product MTT dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) into a blue product, formazan. The amount of formazan thus obtained is directly proportional to the amount of live cells present in the culture well(s). This amount of formazan is measured by spectrophotometry.
The cell lines are maintained as a monolayer culture at 37 0 C in closed culture dishes containing MEM 25 MM HEPES base medium (minimum essential medium). This medium, adapted to the growth of a varied range of mammalian diploid or primary cells, is then supplemented: with an amount of 5% FCS (Fetal Calf Serum) decomplemented at 56 0 C for 1 hour, with 0.6 mg/ml of L-glutamine, with 200 IU/ml of penicillin, with 200 mg/ml of streptomycin, with 0.1 mg/ml of gentamycin.
The 12 human cancer cell lines used were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Rockville, MD, USA). These 12 cell lines are: U-373MG (code ATCC: HTB-17) and U-87MG (code ATCC: HTB-14) which are two glioblastomas, SW1088 (code ATCC: HTB-12) which is an astrocytoma, A549 (code ATCC: CCL-185) and A-427 (code ATCC: HTB-53) which are two non-small-cell lung cancers, 50 HCT-15 (code ATCC: CCL-225) and LoVo (code ATCC: CCL-229) which are two colorectal cancers, T-47D (code ATCC: HTB-133) and MCF7 (code ATCC: HTB-22) which are two breast cancers, J82 (code ATCC: HTB-1) and T24 (code ATCC: HTB- 4) which are two bladder cancers, PC-3 (code ATCC: CRL-1435) which is a prostate cancer.
Experimentally: 100 pil of a cell suspension containing 000 to 50 000 (depending on the cell type used) cells/mL of culture medium are inoculated in flatbottomed 96-well multi-well plates and are incubated at 37°C under an atmosphere comprising 5% CO2 and humidity. After incubating for 24 hours, the culture medium is replaced with 100 p1 of fresh medium containing either the various test compounds at concentrations ranging from 10 5 to 10-10 M or the solvent used to dissolve the test products (control condition). After incubating for 72 hours under the above conditions, the culture medium is replaced with 100 p1l of a yellowish solution of MTT dissolved at a rate of 1 mg/mL in RPMI 1640. The microplates are reincubated for 3 hours at 37°C and then centrifuged for 10 minutes at 400 g. The yellowish solution of MTT is removed and the blue formazan crystals formed at the cellular level are dissolved in 100 pl of DMSO. The microplates are then agitated for 5 minutes. The intensity of the resulting blue coloration, and thus of the conversion of the yellow MTT product into blue formazan by the cells that are still alive at the end of the experiment is quantified by spectrophotometry using a Dynatech Immunoassay System machine at wavelengths of 570 nm and 630 nm corresponding, respectively, to the maximum absorption wavelengths of formazan and to the background noise. Software built into the spectrophotometer calculates the average 51 optical density values and also the standard deviation (Std. Dev.) and standard error of mean (SEM) values.
The inhibitory activity on the cell growth of the compounds of formulae I and Ia on the different tumor cell lines was compared with that of the natural product ascididemin (CRL 8274). All of the compounds show significant inhibitory activity on the cell proliferation of the 12 human tumor lines: U-87MG, U- 373MG, SW 1088, T24, J82, HCT-15, LoVo, MCF7, T-47D, A549, A-427 and PC-3 with a 50% inhibitory concentration (ICso) which is between 10-6M and 10- 0
M,
depending on the compounds and the tumor lines tested.

various compounds was a ratio equal to 1 for The compounds described show, on the tumor cell line models, IC 50 values (nM) which are greater than or equivalent to that of ascididemin. With the exception 54 of CRL 8289 (whose maximum tolerated dose is equivalent to that of ascididemin, but whose IC50 value is ten times lower than that of ascididemin), the maximum tolerated doses of the compounds described, considered by default as equivalent to 160 mg/kg, are markedly higher than those of ascididemin (20 mg/kg). These results suggest that this novel family of compounds have no direct toxicity. Consequently, the tolerance/cytotoxic activity ratios of the compounds illustrated in the present invention are markedly higher than that of the natural ascididemin. These compounds may thus be used as antitumor drugs, for their cytotoxic properties, at tissue concentrations that are higher than those induced with the natural ascididemin. They are thus characterized by better therapeutic manageability. CRL 8289, whose IC50 value is nM, also shows better therapeutic manageability than ascididemin.
By virtue of their cytotoxic properties, the compounds of formulae I and Ia as described, or in the form of acceptable pharmaceutical salts or solvates, may be used as active principles of drugs.
The compounds of formulae I and Ia are generally administered in dosage units established either per m 2 of body surface or per kg of weight. Said dosage units are preferably formulated in pharmaceutical compositions in which the active principle is mixed with one (or more) pharmaceutical excipient(s) The compounds of formulae I and Ia may be used, according to the cancer pathology of the individual to be treated, at doses of between 0.05 and 350 mg/m 2 of body surface, preferably at doses from 0.5 to mg/m 2 /day for a curative treatment in the acute phase as a function of the number of treatment cycles of each cure. For maintenance treatment, the compounds of formulae I and Ia will advantageously be used at 55 doses from 0.05 to 25 mg/m 2 /day and preferably at doses from 0.1 to 1.5 mg/m 2 /day depending on the number of treatment cycles of the cure. They may be combined with antitumor drugs used in validated intensive multidrug therapy protocols.
In the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention for oral or intravenous administration, the active principles may be administered in unit forms of administration, mixed with conventional pharmaceutical supports that are suitable for human therapy. The suitable unit forms of administration comprise oralroute forms such as tablets, which may be splittable, or gel capsules, implants and intravenous administration forms.
For a parenteral administration (intravenous infusion at a constant flow rate), sterile aqueous suspensions, sterile isotonic saline solutions or sterile and injectable solutions which contain pharmacologically compatible dispersants and/or solubilizing agents, for example propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol or a cyclodextrin, are used.
Thus, to prepare an aqueous solution for intravenous injection intended for an infusion performed over 1 to 24 h, it is possible to use a co-solvent: an alcohol such as ethanol, a glycol such as polyethylene glycol or propylene glycol, and a hydrophilic surfactant such as Tween When a solid composition in the form of tablets is prepared, a wetting agent such as sodium lauryl sulfate may be added to the micronized or unmicronized active principle, and the whole is mixed with a pharmaceutical vehicle such as silica, gelatin, starch, lactose, magnesium stearate, talc, gum arabic or the like. The tablets may be coated with sucrose, with various polymers or with other suitable materials, or 56 alternatively they may be treated such that they have sustained or delayed activity and such that they continuously release a predetermined amount of active principle.
A preparation as gel capsules is obtained by mixing the active principle with a diluent such as a glycol or a glycerol ester and by incorporating the mixture obtained into soft or hard gel capsules.
The active principle may also be formulated in the form of microcapsules or microspheres, optionally with one or more supports or additives.
The active principle may also be presented in the form of a complex with a cyclodextrin, for example 0- or y-cyclodextrin,2-hydroxypropyl-(-cyclodextrin or methyl-P-cyclodextrin.
The compounds of formulae I and Ia will be used in the treatment of most solid tumors on account of their powerful cytotoxic activities, in particular for treating cerebral tumors, lung cancers, ovarian and breast tumors, colorectal cancers, prostate cancers and testicular tumors.
