 Substituted tetrahydropyrroloquinolines

5 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The invention had the object of finding new compounds with valuable properties, in particular those that can be used for the production of medicaments.

10

The present invention relates to compounds of the formula I and their

Use for the treatment and prophylaxis of diseases in which the inhibition, regulation and / or modulation of mitotic motor proteins, in particular the mitotic motor protein Eg5, plays a role, _c ^ furthermore to pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds.

In particular, the present invention relates to compounds of the formula I ₁ which preferably inhibit one or more mitotic motor proteins,

2 _Q regulate and / or modulate compositions containing these compounds, as well as methods for their use in the treatment of diseases and conditions such as angiogenesis, cancer, tumorigenesis, growth and spread, arteriosclerosis, ocular disorders, choroidal neovascularization and diabetic retinopathy,

2 ₅ inflammatory diseases, arthritis, neurodegeneration, restenosis,

Wound healing or graft rejection. In particular, the compounds according to the invention are suitable for the therapy or prophylaxis of cancerous diseases.

3 _Q During mitosis, various kinesins regulate the formation and dynamics of the spindle apparatus, which is responsible for the correct and coordinated alignment and separation of the chromosomes. It has been observed that specific inhibition of a mitotic motor protein - Eg5 - leads to collapse of the spindle fibers. This results, that the chromosomes can no longer be correctly distributed to the daughter cells. This leads to mitotic arrest and can thus cause cell death. Upregulation of the motor protein Eg5 has been described, for example, in tissues of breast, lung and colon tumors. Since Eg5 occupies a function specific to mitosis, mainly rapidly dividing cells and not fully differentiated cells are affected by Eg5 inhibition. In addition, Eg5 regulates exclusively the movement of mitotic microtubules

(Spindle apparatus) and not those of the cytoskeleton. This is crucial for the side effect profile of the compounds of the invention, e.g. Neuropathies, as observed in Taxol, do not occur or only weakened. Therefore, the inhibition of Eg5 by the compounds according to the invention is a relevant therapeutic concept for the treatment of malignant tumors.

In general, all solid and non-solid tumors can be treated with the compounds of formula I, e.g. monocytic leukemia, brain, urogenital, lymphatic, gastric, laryngeal and lung carcinomas, including lung adenocarcinoma and small cell lung carcinoma. Other examples include prostate, pancreatic and breast carcinoma.

It has surprisingly been found that the inventive

Connections cause a specific inhibition of mitotic Moter proteins, in particular Eg5. The compounds of the invention preferably exhibit a beneficial biological activity which is readily detectable in the assays described herein, for example. In such assays, the compounds of the invention preferably exhibit and effect an inhibiting effect, usually documented by IC 50 values in a suitable range, preferably in the micromolar range, and more preferably in the nanomolar range. As discussed herein, effects of the compound of the invention are relevant to various diseases. Accordingly, the compounds of the invention are useful in prophylaxis and / or

Treatment of diseases that are influenced by inhibition of one or more mitotic motor proteins, in particular Eg5. The present invention therefore relates to compounds according to the invention as medicaments and / or active pharmaceutical ^{ingredients in the} treatment and / or prophylaxis of said diseases and the

Use of compounds of the invention for the preparation of a pharmaceutical for the treatment and / or prophylaxis of said diseases, as well as a method for the treatment of said diseases comprising administering one or more compounds of the invention to a patient in need of such administration.

It can be shown that the compounds according to the invention have a beneficial effect in a xenograft tumor model

The host or patient may be of any mammalian species, e.g. A primate species, especially humans; Rodents, including mice, rats and hamsters; Rabbits; Horses, cattle, dogs, cats, etc. Animal models are of interest for experimental studies, providing a model for the treatment of human disease.

The susceptibility of a particular cell to treatment with the compounds of the invention can be determined by testing in vitro. Typically, a culture of the cell is combined with a compound of the invention at various concentrations for a period of time sufficient to allow the drugs to induce cell death or inhibit migration, usually between about one hour and one week. For testing in vitro cultured cells from a biopsy sample can be used. The viable cells remaining after treatment are then counted. The dose will vary depending on the specific compound used, the specific disease, the patient status, etc. Typically, a therapeutic dose will be sufficient to substantially reduce the unwanted cell population in the target tissue while maintaining patient viability. Treatment is generally continued until there is a significant reduction, e.g. B. at least about 50% reduction in cell load and can be continued until essentially no more unwanted cells are detected in the body.

The acid addition salts of basic compounds of formula I are prepared by contacting the free base form with a sufficient amount of the desired acid to form the salt in a conventional manner. The free base can be regenerated by contacting the salt form with a base and isolating the free base in a conventional manner. The free base forms in some sense differ from their corresponding salt forms in terms of certain physical properties such as solubility in polar solvents; however, in the context of the invention, the salts otherwise correspond to their respective free base forms. As mentioned, the pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts of the compounds of the formula I are formed with metals or amines such as alkali metals and alkaline earth metals or organic amines. Preferred metals are sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium. Preferred organic amines are N, N'-dibenzylethylenediamine, chloroprocaine, choline, diethanolamine, ethylenediamine, N-methyl-D-glucamine and procaine.

The base addition salts of acidic compounds of the invention are prepared by contacting the free acid form with a sufficient amount of the desired base to form the salt in a conventional manner. The free acid can be regenerated by contacting the salt form with an acid and isolating the free acid in a conventional manner. The free acid forms in some sense differ from their corresponding salt forms in terms of certain physical properties such as solubility in polar solvents; However, in the context of the invention, the salts otherwise correspond to their respective free acid forms.

If a compound according to the invention contains more than one group which can form such pharmaceutically acceptable salts, the invention also encompasses multiple salts. Typical multiple salt forms include, for example, bitartrate, diacetate, difumarate, dimeglumine, diphosphate, disodium and trihydrochloride, but this is not intended to be limiting.

In view of the above, it can be seen that the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" in the present context means an active ingredient which contains a compound of the formula I in the form of one of its salts, especially if this salt form is the active ingredient in the Comparison to the free form of the active ingredient or any other salt form of the active ingredient used previously pharmacokinetic properties. The pharmaceutically acceptable salt form of the active substance may also first impart a desired pharmacokinetic property to this active ingredient which it has not previously possessed, and may even positively influence the pharmacodynamics of this active ingredient in terms of its therapeutic activity in the body.

The invention furthermore relates to medicaments comprising at least one compound of the formula I and / or pharmaceutically usable derivatives, solvates and stereoisomers thereof, including mixtures thereof in all ratios, and optionally excipients and / or adjuvants.

Pharmaceutical formulations may be presented in the form of dosage units containing a predetermined amount of active ingredient per unit dose. Such a moiety may contain, for example, 0.5 mg to 1 g, preferably 1 mg to 700 mg, more preferably 5 mg to 100 mg of a compound of the invention, depending on the condition being treated, the route of administration and the age, weight and condition of the patient, or pharmaceutical formulations may be presented in the form of dosage units containing a predetermined amount of active ingredient per unit dose. Preferred unit dosage formulations are those containing a daily or partial dose as indicated above or a corresponding fraction thereof of an active ingredient. Furthermore, such pharmaceutical formulations can be prepared by any of the methods well known in the pharmaceutical art.

Pharmaceutical formulations may be administered by any suitable route, for example, oral (including buccal or sublingual), rectal, nasal, topical (including buccal, sublingual or transdermal), vaginal or parenteral (including subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous or intradermal) Ways, adapt. Such formulations can work with everyone in the pharmaceutical art, for example, by bringing the active ingredient together with the carrier (s) or excipient (s).

Pharmaceutical formulations adapted for oral administration may be administered as separate units, e.g. Capsules or tablets; Powder or granules; Solutions or suspensions in aqueous or non-aqueous liquids; edible foams or foam foods; or oil-in-water liquid emulsions or water-in-oil liquid emulsions.

Thus, for example, in the case of oral administration in the form of a tablet or capsule, the active ingredient component can be mixed with an oral, non-toxic and pharmaceutically acceptable inert carrier, e.g. Ethanol, glycerin, water and the like. combine. Powders are prepared by comminuting the compound to a suitable fine size and mixing it with a similarly comminuted pharmaceutical excipient, e.g. an edible carbohydrate such as starch or mannitol. A flavor, preservative, dispersant and dye may also be present.

Capsules are made by preparing a powder mix as described above and filling shaped gelatin casings therewith. Lubricants such as e.g. highly disperse silica, talc, magnesium stearate, calcium stearate or polyethylene glycol in solid form can be added to the powder mixture before the filling process. A disintegrants or solubilizers, e.g. Agar-agar, calcium carbonate or sodium carbonate may also be added to improve the availability of the drug after ingestion of the capsule.

In addition, if desired or necessary, suitable bonding, lubricating and disintegrating agents and dyes may also be included in the mixture be incorporated. Suitable binders include starch, gelatin, natural sugars such as glucose or beta-lactose, corn sweeteners, natural and synthetic gums such as acacia, tragacanth or sodium alginate, carboxymethyl cellulose, polyethylene glycol, waxes, etc. Among those used in these dosage forms Lubricants include sodium oleate, sodium stearate, magnesium stearate, sodium benzoate, sodium acetate, sodium chloride, etc. The disintegrators include, but are not limited to, starch, methyl cellulose, agar, bentonite,

Xanthan gum and the like The tablets are formulated by, for example, preparing a powder mixture, granulating or dry pressing, adding a lubricant and a disintegrating agent and pressing the whole into tablets. A powder mixture is prepared by dissolving the appropriately comminuted compound with a diluent or a base as described above, and optionally with a binder, e.g. Carboxymethylcellulose, an alginate, gelatin or polyvinylpyrrolidone, a dissolution reducer, e.g. Paraffin, a resorption accelerator, such as a quaternary salt and / or an absorbent, e.g. Bentonite, kaolin or dicalcium phosphate is mixed. The powder mixture can be granulated by mixing it with a binder, e.g. Syrup, starch paste, Acadia slime or solutions of cellulose or polymer materials wetted and pressed through a sieve. As an alternative to granulation, the powder mixture can be run through a tabletting machine to produce non-uniformly shaped lumps which are broken up into granules. The granules may be greased by the addition of stearic acid, a stearate salt, talc or mineral oil to prevent sticking to the tablet molds. The greased mixture is then compressed into tablets. The compounds according to the invention can also be reacted with a free-flowing inert

Carrier combined and then pressed directly into tablets without performing the granulation or Trockenverpressungsschritte. A transparent or opaque protective layer consisting of a shellac seal, a layer of sugar or polymeric material and a glossy layer of wax may be present. Dyes can be added to these coatings in order to differentiate between different dosage units.

Oral fluids, e.g. Solution, syrups and elixirs may be prepared in unit dosage form such that a given quantity contains a predetermined amount of the compound. Syrups can be prepared by dissolving the compound in an appropriate taste aqueous solution while preparing elixirs using a non-toxic alcoholic vehicle. Suspensions can be formulated by dispersing the compound in a non-toxic vehicle. Solubilizers and emulsifiers, e.g. ethoxylated isostearyl alcohols and polyoxyethylene sorbitol ethers, preservatives, flavoring additives such as e.g. Peppermint oil or natural sweeteners or saccharin or other artificial sweeteners, i.a. can also be added.

The unit dosage formulations for oral administration may optionally be encapsulated in microcapsules. The formulation may also be prepared to prolong or retard release, such as by coating or embedding particulate material in polymers, wax, and the like.

The compounds of formula I as well as salts, solvates and physiologically functional derivatives thereof can also be administered in the form of liposome delivery systems, such as e.g. small unilamellar vesicles, large unilamellar vesicles and multilamellar vesicles. Liposomes can be prepared from various phospholipids, such as e.g. Cholesterol, stearylamine or phosphatidylcholines.

Pharmaceutical formulations adapted for parenteral administration include aqueous and nonaqueous sterile injection solutions containing the antioxidants, buffers, bacteriostats and solutes, through which the formulation is made isotonic with the blood of the recipient to be treated; and aqueous and non-aqueous sterile suspensions which may contain suspending agents and thickeners. The

Formulations may be used in single or multiple dose containers, e.g. sealed vials and vials, and stored in the freeze-dried (lyophilized) state so that only the addition of the sterile carrier liquid, e.g. Water for injections, needed immediately before use. Injection solutions and suspensions prepared by formulation can be prepared from sterile powders, granules and tablets.

It will be understood that in addition to the above particularly mentioned ingredients, the formulations may include other means conventional in the art with respect to the particular type of formulation; for example, formulations suitable for oral administration may contain flavorings.

A therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I depends on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the age and weight of the animal, the exact condition requiring treatment, as well as its severity, nature of the formulation and route of administration determined by the attending physician or veterinarian. However, an effective amount of a compound of the invention for the treatment of neoplastic growth, eg, colon or breast carcinoma, is generally in the range of 0.1 to 100 mg / kg body weight of the recipient (mammal) per day, and more typically in the range of 1 to 10 mg / kg body weight per day. Thus, for a 70 kg adult mammal, the actual amount per day would usually be between 70 and 700 mg, this amount being given as a single dose per day or more commonly in a number of divided doses (such as two, three, four, five or six) per Day can be given so that the total daily dose is the same. An effective Amount of a salt or solvate or a physiologically functional derivative thereof can be determined as a proportion of the effective amount of the compound of the present invention per se. It can be assumed that similar dosages are suitable for the treatment of the other, above-mentioned disease states.
