Description

,.....
1~4~552 This is a divisional application of Canadian Patent Application Serial No. 610,076, filed on August 31, 1989.
This invention relates to a novel O-substituted fumagillol derivative, O-chloroacetylcarbamoylfumagillol of the formula:
(I) H
O O
which has angiogenesis inhibitory activity and is effective in the treatment and prevention of various inflammatory diseases (rheumatism, psoriasis, etc.), diabetic retinopathy and cancer, among others.
Angiogenesis is deeply concerned in the course of manifestation or progress of various diseases, for example various inflammatory diseases (rheumatism, psoriasis, etc.), diabetic retinopathy, and cancer. Therefore, to inhibit angiogenesis is considered to contribute to the treatment and prevention of such diseases. In fact, several groups of researchers have so far searched for angiogenesis inhibitory substances. As examples, there may be mentioned the study by CH.~

Taylor et al.[Taylor, S. et al., Nature,:'.297, 307 (l982)] on the applicability of protamine and the study by Folkman et al.
[Folkman, J. et al., Science,''2.21, 719 (1983)] on the combined use of heparin and cortisone. Furthermore, patent applications have been filed alleging, for example, that ascorbic acid ethers and related compounds (Japanese Kokai Tokkyo Koho No.
58-131978) and the sulfated polysaccharide DS1152 (Japanese Kokai Tokkyo Koho No. 63'119500) show angiogenesis inhibitory activity. However, such substances are not yet fully satisfactory from the activity viewpoint. The advent of compounds superior in activity is waited for.
Accordingly, it is an object of the invention to provide a novel compound having angiogenesis inhibitory activity.
The present inventors searched for and evaluated various compounds in an attempt to achieve the above object and, as a result, found that O-substituted derivatives of fumagillol, a hydrolyzate of fumagillin so far known as an antimicrobial and antiprotozoal agent, have potent angiogenesis inhibitory activity. Based on this finding, they have now completed the present invention. Thus, the invention relates to an O-substituted fumagillol derivative, O-chloroacetyl-carbamoylfumagillol of the formula (I).
The compound of the present invention can be produced by subjecting fumagillol [Tarbell, D. S. et al., J. Am. Chem.
Soc., 83, 3096 (1961)], which is a hydrolyzate of fumagillin W
1~~0~52 produced by microorganisms, to carbamoylation using a carbamoyl-ating agent in the manner mentioned below.
The carbamoylation reaction for the introduction of a monosubstituted carbamoyl group is carried out generally by bringing fumagillol into contact with an isocyanate according to the following equation:
R5NC0 + fumagillol -~ Compound (I) .
In the above equation, R5 is chloroacetyl. The isocyanate is used generally in an amount of about 1 to 5 moles per mole of fumagillol.
This reaction is carried out generally in the presence of a base. Usable as the base are, for example, tertiary amines, alkali metal hydrogen carbonates, alkali metal carbonates, alkali metal hydrides and organometals, such as diisopropylethylamine, triethylamine, pyridine, N,N-dimethyl-aminopyridine, sodium hydrogen carbonate, potassium hydrogen carbonate, sodium and potassium carbonate, sodium and potassium hydride, butyl lithium, and lithium diisopropylamide. The level of addition of the base is generally about 1 to 5 moles per mole of fumagillol.
This reaction is carried out generally in an organic solvent which will not interfere with the reaction. Usable as such inert organic solvent are amides, halogenated hydrocarbons, ethers, esters, nitriles, nitro compounds, ketones and aromatic hydrocarbons, such as dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, dichloromethane, chloroform, 1,2-dichloroethane, diethyl ether, 1~4455~
tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, methylacetate, ethylacetate, isobutylacetate, methylpropionate, acetonitrile, propionitrile, nitromethane, nitroethane, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, benzene and toluene. They may be used either singly or in the form of a mixture of two or more of them mixed together in an appropriate ratio. When a tertiary amine is used as the base, the tertiary amine as such may also serve as a solvent.
The optimal reaction temperature may depend on the base and solvent and amounts thereof but is generally within the range of -80~C to 100~C, preferably from 0~C to room temperature. The reaction time required amounts to about 1 hour to 5 days.
The carbamoylation may also be effected by reacting fumagillol with a chloroacetyl carbamoyl halide.
The carbamoyl halide is used generally in an amount of about 1 to 5 moles per mole of fumagillol.
This reaction is carried out generally in the presence of a base. Usable as the base are those tertiary amines, alkali metal hydrogen carbonates, alkali metal carbonates, alkali metal hydrides and organoalkali metals mentioned above. The level of addition of the base is generally about 1 to 5 moles per mole of fumagillol.
This reaction is carried out generally in an organic solvent which will not interfere with the reaction. Usable as such inert organic solvent are those amides, halogenated hydrocarbons, ethers, esters, nitriles, nitro compounds, '~ 13~055~
ketones and aromatic hydrocarbons mentioned above. They may be used either singly or in the form of a mixture, in.an appropriate mixing ratio, of two or more of them. When a tertiary amine is used as the base, the tertiary amine as such may also serve as a solvent.
The optimal reaction temperature may vary depending on the base and solvent and amounts thereof. Generally, however, the reaction is carried out at a temperature from about 0~C to a temperature approximately equal to the refluxing temperature of the reaction medium, preferably from about 25~C
to the refluxing temperature.
_ The O-substituted fumagillol derivative (I) thus produced can be isolated by ~ se known means of separation and purification (e. g. chromatography, crystallization) or by other appropriate means.
The compound (I) has asymmetric centers within the molecule and accordingly is optically active. The absolute configuration comes from the starting material fumagillol.
Therefore, it is to be noted that the compound (I) has the same absolute configuration that fumagillol has.
The compound according to the invention exhibits angiogenesis inhibitory activity and is useful as a therapeutic and prophylactic agent for various inflammatory diseases (rheumatism, psoriasis), diabetic retinopathy, or cancer. It can be safely administered either orally or nonorally as such or in the form of pharmaceutical preparations [e. g. tablets, capsules (inclusive of soft capsules and microcapsules), solutions, injections, suppositories] prepared by admixing with ~ se known pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients or the like. The dose may vary depending on the target of administration, route of administration, symptoms and other factors. Generally, however, in adults, it is used, for example, at a dose of about 0.1 mg/kg to 40 mg/kg body weight, preferably about 0.5 mg/kg to 20 mg/kg body weight.
Experimental Example The product compound (I) obtained in the example given below was evaluated for angiogenesis inhibitory activity by the rat cornea micropocket method. The data obtained are shown in the table given below.
Method of Measurement Essentially the method of Gimbrone et al. [J.
National Cancer Institute, 52, 4l3-419 (1974)] was followed.
Thus, adult male Sprague-Dawley rats (11 to 16 weeks of age) were anesthetized with nembutal and locally anesthetized by instillation of xylocaine eyedrops onto the eyeball. The cornea was incised to a length of about 2 mm at about 2 mm inside from the corneal circumference by means of an injection needle, and a sustained release pellet containing basic fibro-blast growth factor (bFGF; bovine brain-derived, purified product; R & D) and a sustained release pellet containing the test sample were inserted side by side into the incision so that the bFGF pellet was located on the central side in the cornea. In the control group, the bFGF pellet and a sample-free ,,~ 1340552 pellet were inserted into the cornea. After 7 days, the cornea was observed under a stereoscopic microscope. When the sample administration resulted in retardation or reduction of bFGF-induced angiogenesis, the sample was judged to have inhibitory activity.
The sustained release pellets were prepared in the following manner. An ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (Takeda Chemical Industries) was dissolved in dichloromethane to a concentration of 8%. A 3-ul portion of the solution was air-dried on a glass dish, an aqueous solution of bFGF (250 ng) was then placed thereon and air-dried and, finally 3 ~1 of the above ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer solution was placed further thereon and air-dried to give a laminate consisting of two copolymer layers and a bFGF layer sandwiched therebetween.
This sandwich sheet was made round into a bFGF pellet. The test sample pellets were prepared by dissolving each sample in ethanol in a concentration of 20 ~rg/2 ul, mixing the solution (2 N1) with 6 ul of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer solution, air-drying the mixed solution on a glass dish and making the thus-obtained sheet round.
Table - Angiogenesis Inhibitory Activity Compound Inhibition Rate Judgement (I) 6/6 +
Judged after 7 days.
In the above table, the inhibition rate is the ratio of the number of rats in which angiogenesis inhibitory activity was observed to the number of rats tested.

i340~~2 Example The following example is further illustrative of the present invention but is by no means limitative of the scope of the invention.
In the following example, elution in column chromato-graphy(the eluent being given in the parentheses) was performed under TLC (thin layer chromatography) observation. In TLC
observation, Merck Kieselgel 60F250 (70-230 mesh) was used for preparing TLC plates and the solvent used as the eluent in column chromatography was used also as the developing solvent.
For detection, a UV detector or colouration with phosphomolybdic acid, for example, was used. Merck Kieselgel 60 (70-230 mesh) was used also as the column Backing silica gel. Each NMR
spectrum is a proton NMR (1H-NMR) spectrum measured on a Varian model Gemini 200 NMR spectrometer with tetramethyl-silane as an internal or external standard and reported in terms of d values in ppm.
