SPECIFICATION Improvements relating to compounds useful in radiotherapy or chemotherapy
This invention relates to compounds useful in the treatment of cancer patients by radiotherapy or chemotherapy, to a process for the production of such compounds, to formulations for administration 5 and to methods of treating such patients.
Accordingly, the present invention comprises a compound of formula 1 R1 / 2 R3 N N CH2 (CHOH)n CH2 -N m \\ - R4 N02. R5 in which formula:
1 R, represents hydrogen or an alkyl (e.g. Cl-C, alkyl) group; F127-13., represent hydrogen, alkyl (e.g. Cl-C, alkyl), ary], aralkyl or alkaryl group; and n is 1 or 2.
In compounds 1, the nitro group is typically located at the 2-position on the imidazole ring and R,, when an alkyl group, e.g. a methyl group, is usually disposed at the 5-position. Generally, at least two of R,,--R, are hydrogen and preferably at least one of R--Rr, is an alkyl, e.g. a methyl, ethyl or isopropyl group or a benzyl group. Compounds wherein the group -N02'S located at the 2-position, R, represents hydrogen, n is 1 and R2, R3, R4 and R. represent hydrogen or R2 and R, represent methyl and R4 and R, represent hydrogen or R2 and R4 represent methyl and R3 and R, represent hydrogen are of particular interest.
The compounds are useful in increasing the sensitivity of tumour cells to radiation in radiotherapy and also in potentiating or enhancing damage to tumours by chemotherapeutic agents.
A compound 1 may be produced, in accordance with a further aspect of the present invention from compound 11 by treatment thereof with an aziridine of formula Ill preferably in a polar solvent such as an alcohol.
l 1- 1..10\ N 1 N"2("0')n-l M-M2 N02 R2 t' R3 HN R4 RS Ill In a second process within the scope of the present invention for the production of the compound 1, the compound of formula 11 is reacted with a compound of formula IIIA:- H2NCR2R3CR4Rg--X IIIA wherein X represents a halogen, typically chlorine or bromine, preferably in the presence of an acid 30 acceptor e.g. an alkali metal hydroxide.
In a third process within the scope of the present invention for the production of the compound 1, a compound W R1 N N CH2 (CHOH)n W2Y H02 IV 2 GB 2 123 816 A 2 wherein Y represents a halogen, typically bromine or chlorine, is reacted with an aziridine of formula Ill, preferably in the presence of an acid acceptor e.g. an alkali metal hydroxide.
In a fourth process within the scope of the present invention for the production of the compound 1, a compound V 2 0 - R3 C112-CH(CH011) CH2-N n-1 -R4 R5 is reacted with a compound of formula VI preferably under neutral or basic conditions.
V l Nyt,AH V1 In a fifth alternative process within the scope of the present invention for the production of the 10 compound 1, a compound of formula Vil- gl N /===\ NC2(C"')nCH2NHCR2R3CR4RSZ N02 VI1 wherein Z represents a halogen, typically bromine or chlorine, is cyclised by treatment with a base, typically an alkali metal hydroxide e. g. potassium or sodium hydroxide.

The compound I may be formulated in a manner appropriate to the treatment for which it is to be used by bringing it into association with a pharmaceutically compatible carrier or diluent. The compound may be included in a dosage form such as a tablet or capsule, for example a capsule comprising known formulation components such as one or more of those described in Example A of U.K. Patent Application 20031 54A. The compound may also be formulated for intravenous administration e.g. in a saline drip solution.
When employed as a radiation sensitizing agent, in accordance with a further aspect of the present invention, the compound I is administered to a patient having a radiation sensitive cancer prior to irradiation of said cancer.
The compound I may, however, in yet a further aspect of the present invention be employed for chemopotentiation of a chemotherapeutic agent by administration of the compound I to a patient having a localised or metastatic cancer. Administration of the compound I is generally carried out prior 30 to or simultaneously with administration of the chemotherapeutic agent, for example mephalan, cyclophosphamide, 5-fluorouracil or CCNU (1 -(2-chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexyl- 1 -nitrosourea).
The invention is illustrated by the following Examples:- IQ 4 A k 3 GB 2 123 816 A 3 EXAMPLE 1 1-(2-Nitro-1 -imidazolyi)-3-(l -aziridino)-2-propanol A mixture of 1-(2,3-epoxypropyl)-2-nitoimidazole prepared by the method described by Beaman (Beaman A.G., Tautz W. and Duschinsky R., 1967; Studies in the Nitrolmidazole Series, Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy p.-520-530), (5.10 g, 0.03 mol) and aziridine (2.60 g., 0.06 moll in methanol (70 ml) is heated under reflux for one hour. The reaction mixture is treated with decolourising charcoal, refluxed for 5 minutes and filtered. The solvent is removed under reduced pressure to a yellow residue, which is dissolved in a minimum quantity of ethanol and allowed to crystallise to give 1-(2Nitro-1 -imidazolyl)-3-(1 -azi rid ino)-2-propa nol (3.57 g, 56%, m.p. 119-121 OC) as a pale yellow 10 crystalline solid. Recrystallization causes the decomposition of the product.
EXAMPLE 2 AND 3 In the following Examples, WHT mice in which the MT tumour has been implanted subcutaneously are administered the compound of Example 1 intraperitoneally before treatment with radiation or with the chemotherapeutic agent melphalan. The time before such treatment at which the drug is administered is such that maximum enhancement is effected. The results of treatment with radiation 15 and the chemotherapeutic drug are set out respectively in Tables I and 11 together with comparison results using misonidazole (MISO) and the compound Ro-03-8799. The asterisks against the results from treatment with the latter compounds indicate that the turnours treated in these cases are intramuscular.
