Definitions
- the present invention relates to azido-substituted pyrixaidine derivatives. More specifically it concerns azido derivat ives of 2 ,4diamino-5-phenylpyrimidines , the preparat ion thereof , pharmaceutical formulations thereof and the use thereof in therapy.
- the azido group may act as a "pseudohalide” group (see A. Treinin, in “The Chemist ry of the Azido Group” , Editor S . Patai; publisher John Wiley & Sons , 1971 , pp 1-55) and in its lipophilic and electronic characteristics bears affinities with halogen substituents which have found wide use as biologically acceptable groups in drug molecules . It has also been reported that aromat ic azides can act as pro-drug modif icat ions for the corresponding aromatic amines (E .A. Bliss , T .B . Brown, M.F.G. Stevens, and C.K. Wong , J. Pharm.
- the present invention provides, in a first aspect, compounds of the general formula (I):
- R 1 radical is selected from hydrogen, halogen, or alkoxy having a carbon chain of 1-4 carbon atoms, while R 2 is hydrogen or an alkyl group of 1-4 carbon atoms, and the invention further includes acid addition salts of compounds of the said general formula (I).
- the azido group is in the 3'-position of the phenyl group
- a said radical R 1 consisting of a chlorine, bromine or iodine atom or an alkoxy group of 1-4 carbon atoms is in the 4'-position of the phenyl group
- the said radical R 2 is an alkyl group of 1-4 carbon atoms.
- Particularly preferred compounds within this first class comprise azido-substituted pyrimidine derivatives of formulas (la - Id) below and acid addition salts thereof:
- the azido group is in the 4'-posit ion of the phenyl group, a said radical R 1 consisting of a chlorine, bromine or iodine atom or an alkoxy group of
- Particularly preferred compounds within this second class comprise azido-substituted pyrimidine derivatives of formulas (Ie - If) below and acid addition salts thereof :
- Acid addition salts of compounds of formula (I) are preferably pharmaceutically acceptable although other acid addition salts are within the scope of the invention.
- Suitable salts are those derived from, for example, the following acids : hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulphuric, nitric, isethionic, phosphoric, maleic, salicylic, p-toluenesulphonic, tartaric , citric , lactobionic , formic , malonic , pantothenic , succinic , naphthalene-2-sulphonic, benzenesulphonic, methanesulphonic and ethanesulphonic.
- the preferred salt s in terms of pharmaceutical acceptability are the ethanesulphonic acid salts.
- the compounds of formula (I) may be prepared by adapting or using any method or synthetic procedure known ih the art for the preparation of compounds of analogous structure.
- compounds of formula (I), at least wherein the azido group is in the 3'- or 4'- position of the phenyl group may be prepared by using either of the following procedures:
- R 1 and R 2 are as hereinbefore defined, and Y is a residue or group such as alkoxy (e.g. methoxy, ethoxy), aralkoxy (e.g. benzyloxy), alkylthio (e.g. methylthio), aralkylthio (e.g. benzylthio) or a secondary or tertiary amino group (e.g. dimethylamino, diethyl amino, or other dialkylamino group; anilino; morpholino).
- alkoxy e.g. methoxy, ethoxy
- aralkoxy e.g. benzyloxy
- alkylthio e.g. methylthio
- aralkylthio e.g. benzylthio
- a secondary or tertiary amino group e.g. dimethylamino, diethyl amino, or other dialkylamino group; anilino;
- the compounds of the invention have been found to inhibit dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) in mammals and other biological systems and to have antitumour activity; they also appear to have some antipsoriatic and antimalarial activity.
- DHFR dihydrofolate reductase
- Such antitumour activity is evidenced for example by reduction of tumour cell number in mammals bearing ascitic tumours and their consequent increase in survival as compared to a control group which is untreated.
- Antitumour activity is further evidenced by measurable reduction in the size of solid tumours following treatment with the compounds of this invention compared to the tumours of untreated control animals.
- the murine tumour lines against which the compounds of formula (I) are active include, but are not limited to, lymphocytic leukemia P388, lymphocytic leukemia L1210, melanotic melanoma B16 , Colon 38, TLX5 lymphoma, W3129 myeloma, Walker 256 and M5 recticulura cell sarcoma.
- the compounds of the present invention are useful for the treatment of tumours.
- the invention thus further provides a method for the treatment of tumours in animals, including mammals, which comprises the administration of an effective, non-toxic amount of the compound of formula (I), or an acid addition salt thereof, orally, parenterally (including subcutaneous, intramuscular and intravenous), or applied topically.
- the administration will generally be carried out repetitively at intervals, for example once or several times a day.
- a compound of formula (I) or an acid addition salt thereof for use in therapy for example as an antitumour agent.
- the amount of compounds of formula (I) required to be effective as an antitumour agent for treating mammals will, of course, vary and is ultimately at the discretion of the medical or veterinary practitioner treating the mammal in each particular case.
- the factors to be considered by such a practitioner, e.g. a physician, include the route of administration and pharmaceutical formulation; the mammal's body weight, surface area, age and general condition; and the particular salt or ester to be administered.
- a suitable effective antitumour dose is in the range of about 1.0 to about 75mg/kg bodyweight, preferably in the range of about 5 to 40mg/kg with most suitable doses being for example in the range 10 to 30mg/kg.
- the total daily dose may be given as a single dose, multiple doses, e.g. two to six times per day, or by intravenous infusion for any selected duration.
- the dose range would be about 75 to 500mg per day, and a typical dose would cqmraonly be about 100mg per day.
- treatment might typically be 50mg of a compound, of formula (I) given 4 times per day in the form of a tablet, capsule, liquid (e.g. syrup) or injection.
- the antitumour activity of the compounds of formula (I) resides in the free base and thus the nature of the acid participating in the acid addition salts is of minor importance.
- the salts of the compound of formula (I) should be both pharmacologically and pharmaceutically acceptable, but nonpharmaceutically and non-pharmacologically acceptable salts may conveniently be used to prepare the free active compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof and are not excluded from the scope of this Invention.
- Formulations of the present invention comprise the active compound together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers thereof and, optionally, any other therapeutic ingredients.
- the carrier(s) must be pharmaceutically acceptable in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious to the recipient thereof .
- the present invention therefore further provides a pharmaceutical formulation comprising a compound of formula (I) (in the form of the free base or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt) together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier therefor.
- the formulations include those suitable for oral, rectal or parenteral (including subcutaneous, intramuscular and intravenous) administration.
- the formulations may conveniently be presented in unit dosage form and may be prepared by any of the methods well known in the art of pharmacy. All methods include generally the step of bringing the active compound into association with a carrier which constitutes one or more accessory Ingredients. Usually, the formulations are prepared by uniformly and intimately bringing the active compound into association with a liquid carrier or with a finely divided solid carrier or with both and then, if necessary, shaping the product into desired formulations.
- Formulations of the present invention suitable for oral administration may be presented as discrete units such as capsules, cachets, tablets or lozenges, each containing a predetermined amount of the active compound; as a powder or granules; or a suspension In an aqueous liquid or non-aqueous liquid such as a syrup, an elixir, an emulsion or a draught.
- the active compound may also be presented as a bolus, electuary or paste.
- a tablet may be made by compression or moulding, optionally with one or more accessory ingredients.
- Compressed tablets may be prepared by compressing, in a suitable machine, the active compound in a free-flowing form such as a powder or granules, optionally mixed with a binder, lubricant, Inert diluent, surface active or dispersing agent.
- Moulded tablets may be made by moulding, In a suitable machine, a mixture of the powdered active compound with any suitable carrier.
- a syrup may be made by adding the active compound to a concentrated, aqueous solution of a sugar, for example sucrose, to which may be added any accessory ingredient.
- a sugar for example sucrose
- Such accessory ingredient(s) may include flavourings, an agent to retard crystallisation of the sugar or an agent to increase the solubility of any other ingredient, such as a polyhydric alcohol for example glycerol or sorbitol.
- Formulations for rectal administration may be presented as a suppository with a usual carrier such as cocoa butter.
- Formulations suitable for parental administration conveniently comprise a sterile aqueous preparation of the active compound which is preferably isotonic with the blood of the recipient.
- the formulations of this Invention may further include one or more accessory ingredient(s) selected from diluents, buffers, flavouring agents, binders, surface active agents, thickeners, lubricants, preservatives (including antioxidants) and the like.
- accessory ingredient(s) selected from diluents, buffers, flavouring agents, binders, surface active agents, thickeners, lubricants, preservatives (including antioxidants) and the like.
