Description
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 and to methods of treating such patients.
Accordingly, the present invention comprises a compound of formula I
in which: R1 represents hydrogen, C,C6 alkyl,
R2 and R3 represent hydrogen or C1-C6 alkyl,
X represents a pharmaceutically acceptable ligand incapable of co-ordinating to platinum more strongly than does nitrogen of the moiety -NR2R3 aisi or2 bis0--2 cisi or2 dis0--2
eis0---2; provided that b+d are no greater than 2 and when d is greater than 0, e is greater than 0.
Pharmaceutically acceptable ligands X may be monodentate or form part of a bidentate ligand X2.
Although X preferably represents halogen and especially chlorine, the compound I may alternatively comprise a bidentate ligand of the formulaO.CO.CRaRbCO.O, for example, in which formula Ra and
Rb, which may be identical or different, each represent hydrogen or an alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl or cycloalkenyl group or CRaRb represents a cycloalkyl or cycloalkenyl group. Monodentate ligands X may be identical or different.
Although when X2 represents a bidentate ligand the configuration of the complex is necessarily cis, this configuration is preferred when X2 represents two monodentate ligands.
R1,when other than hydrogen, is typically a methyl or isopropyl group. Substituents R, are typically located at the ring 4 or 5 position and the nitro group is preferably located at the 2 position in the imidazole ring.
R2 and R3 both typically represent hydrogen although compounds in which one or both of R2 and R2 represent an alkyl group are also of interest.
It is generally preferred that the side chain comprises no more than five carbons so that a+b+c+d+e5. The presence of an hydroxyl group on the beta carbon with respect to the imidazole ring is also generally preferred, in which case when b is 1 or 2, a is usually 1. Side chains of particular interest include the following, (Im represents the imidazole ring)::- lm-CH2CH2NH2 (a=1, b=O, c=l, d=O, e=O); Im-CH2CHOHCH2NH2 (a=1, b=1 , c=i, d=O, e=O); lm-CH2CHOH(CH2)2NH2 (a=1, b=1, c=2, d=O, e=O); lm-CH2CHOH(CH2)3NH2 (a=1, b=1, c=2, d=O, e=l); Im-(CH2)2CHOH CH2NH2
(a=2, b=1, c=2, d=O, e=O); Im-CH2C HOHCHOH CH2NH2
(a=1, b=1, c=O, d=1, e=1).
Compounds I may be produced, in accordance with a further aspect of the present invention by reaction of a compound of formula II preferably in the form of an acid addition salt e.g. a hydrochloride, with a platinum compound of formula Ill:-
M2PtX4 Ill wherein M represents an alkali metal e.g. potassium, X typically represents chlorine.
When the compound II is in the form of an acid addition salt, the reaction is usually conducted in the presence of a base such as sodium hydroxide so that the free amine is liberated for reaction with the compound Ill.
Intermediate compounds II are also included within the scope of the present invention, provided that R2 and R3 both represent hydrogen.
Compounds of formula II, particularly those in which R2 and R3 both represent hydrogen, may be prepared in accordance with a further aspect of the present invention by treatment of a phthalimide compound of formula IV with hydrazine, typically in hydrated form, suitably in a protic solvent such as an alcohol.
Intermediate compounds of formula II wherein one or both of R2 and R3 represent alkyl groups may however be produced by following a method described in UK Patent Application No. 20031 54A.
Intermediate compounds IV are also included within the scope of the present invention and may be prepared, in accordance with a yet further aspect of the present invention, by reaction of a nitroimidazole of formula Vwith a compound of formula VI:
The reaction is usually conducted under basic conditions, in the presence for example of potassium carbonate and in a protic solvent, e.g. an alcohol.
Intermediate compounds VI are also included within the scope of the present invention.
Certain compounds IIA of formula II may also be produced in accordance with a further aspect of the present invention by reaction of a compound of formula VII with ammonia, preferably in aqueous solution
Such compounds IIA may, of course, be readily converted into acid addition salts thereof by treatment with acids.
Compounds I 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.
The compounds may be formulated in a manner appropriate to the treatment for which they are to be used by bringing them into association with pharmaceutically compatible carriers or diluents. The compounds 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 UK
Patent Application No. 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, a compound I is administered to a patient having a radiation sensitive cancer prior to irradiation of said cancer.
A compound I may, however, in a yet further aspect of the present invention be employed for chemopotentiation of a chemotherapeutic agent by administration of the compound to a patient having a localised or metastatic cancer. Administration of a compound I is generally carried out prior to or simultaneously with administration of the chemotherapeutic agent, for example melphlan, cyclophosphamide or 5-fluorouracil or CCNU (1 -(2-chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexyl-1 -nitrosourca).
The invention is illustrated by the following Examples: Example 1 Dichloro-bis[2-(2-nitro-1 imidazolyl),ethylamine] platinum Ii 415 mg (1 mmol) potassium tetrachloroplatinate (II) is dissolved in 20 ml of water, filtered and added to a solution of 312 mg (2 mmol) of 2-(2-nitro-1 -imidazolyl)ethylamine.
