Description

DERIVATIVES OF 2-HETEROARI ALKENYL OF THE CICLOPENTAN ACID HEPTAN (EN) PEAK AS THERAPEUTIC AGENTS Field of Invention The present invention relates to 2-heteroarylalkenyl derivatives of cyclopentane heptanoic acid, which can be substituted in the 1-position with hydroxyl, alkyloxy, amino and amido groups, for example derivatives of 1-OH-cyclopentan-heptanoic acid, 2-heteroarylalkenyl. These compounds are potent ocular hypotensive and are particularly suitable for the management of glaucoma.
Background of the Invention Ocular hypotensive agents are useful in the treatment of a number of various ocular hypertensive conditions, such as post-surgical and post-laser trabeculectomy, glaucoma, and as pre-surgical adjuncts.
Glaucoma is an eye disease characterized by increased pressure Ref: 119789 intraocular. Based on this etiology, glaucoma is classified as primary or secondary. For example, primary glaucoma in adults (congenital glaucoma) can be either open angle or acute or chronic closed angle. Secondary glaucoma results from pre-existing eye diseases such as uveitis, intraocular tumor or an enlarged cataract.
The root causes of primary glaucoma are not yet known. The increase in intraocular tension is due to the obstruction of the outflow of aqueous humor. In chronic open-angle glaucoma, the anterior chamber and its anatomical structure appear normal, but drainage of the aqueous humor is prevented. In chronic closed angle glaucoma, the anterior chamber becomes shallower, the angle of filtration narrows, and the iris can obstruct the trabeocular meshwork at the entrance to Schlemm's canal. Dilation of the pupil may press the iris root forward against the angle, and may cause blockage of the pupil and thus precipitate an acute attack. Eyes with narrow anterior chamber angles are predisposed to acute angle-closure glaucoma attacks of varying degrees of severity.
Secondary glaucoma is caused by any interference with the flow of aqueous humor from the posterior chamber in the anterior chamber and subsequently, in the Schlemm canal. Inflammatory disease of the anterior segment can prevent aqueous leakage by causing a complete posterior synechia in the iris pump, and can plug the drainage channel with exudates. Other common causes are infra-ocular tumors, enlarged cataracts, occlusion of the central retinal vein, trauma to the eye, operative procedures and intraocular hemorrhage.
Considering all types together, glaucoma occurs in about 2% of all people over 40 years of age and can be asymptotic for years before progressing to rapid loss of vision. In cases where surgery is not indicated, topical b-adrenoreceptor antagonists are the drugs traditionally chosen for the treatment of glaucoma.
It has been reported that certain eicosanoids and their derivatives have ocular hypotensive activity, and have been recommended for use in the management of glaucoma. Eicosanoids and their derivatives include numerous biologically important compounds such as prostaglandins and their derivatives. Prostaglandins can be described as derivatives of prostanoic acid having the following structural formula: Various types of prostaglandins are known, depending on their structure and substituents that carry in the alicyclic ring of the skeleton of prostanoic acid. An additional classification is based on the number of unsaturated bonds on the side of the chain indicated by the numerical subscripts after the generic type of taglandino pros [eg, prostaglandin Ei (PGEi), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)], and in the configuration of the substituents on the alicyclic ring indicated by a or ß [for example protaglandin F2a (PGF2a)].
Prostaglandins were previously regarded as potent ocular hypertensives, however, evidence accumulated in the last decade shows that some prostaglandins are highly effective ocular hypotensive agents, and are ideally suited for the long-term medical management of glaucoma (see, for example, Bito, L.Z. Biological Protection with Prostaglandins, Cohen, M.M., Boca Raton, Florida, CRC Press Inc., 1985, pages 231-252; and Bito, L.Z., Applied Pharmacology in the Medical Treatment of Glaucomas Drance, S.M. and Neufeld, A. H. editors, New York, Grunt & Stratton, 1984, pages 477-505. Such prostaglandins include PGF2a, PGFα, PGE 2, and certain lipid soluble esters, such as C 1 to C 2 alkyl esters, for example 1-isopropyl ester, of such compounds.
Although the precise mechanism is not yet known, experimental results indicate that the reduction induced by the prostaglandin results in a reduction in intraocular pressure from the elevated uveoscleral flow [Nilsson et al., Invest. Ophthalmol, Vis. Sci. (Supl), 284 (1987)].
The isopropyl ester of PGF2a has been found to have significantly greater hypotensive potency than the parent compound, presumably as a result of its more effective penetration through the cornea. In 1987, this compound was described as "the most potent ocular hypotensive agent ever reported" [see, for example, Bito, L.Z., Arch. Ophthalmol. 105, 1036 (1987), and Siebold et al., Prodrug 5 3 (1989)].
While the prostaglandins appear to be devoid of significant infraocular side effects, hyperemia of the ocular surface (conjuncti val) and sensation of a foreign body that are consistently associated with topical ocular use of such compounds, in particular of PGF2a and its prodrugs, for example, its 1-isopropyl ester, in humans. The clinical potentials of prostaglandins in the management of conditions associated with increased ocular pressure, for example glaucoma, are largely limited by these side effects.
In a series of co-pending United States patents assigned to Allergan, Inc., prostaglandin esters with increased ocular hypotensive activity are described that are accompanied by no side effects or substantially reduced. The co-pending USSN 596,430 (filed October 10, 1990), refers to certain 11-acyl-protaglandins, such as 11-pivaloyl, 11-acetyl, 11-isobutyryl, 11-valeryl, and 11-isovaleryl PGF2? f 15-Acyl prostaglandins Reducing intraocular pressure is described in copending application USSN 175,476 (filed December 29, 1993). Similarly, 11,15-, 9,15- and 9,11-diesters of prostaglandins, for example, 11,15-dipivaloyl PGF 2a are known to have ocular hypotensive activity. See patent applications co-pending USSN Nos. 385,645 (filed July 07, 1989, now US Patent 4,994,274), 584,370 (filed September 18, 1990, now US Patent 5,028,624) and 585,284 (filed September 18, 1990, now US Patent 5,034,413).

Summary of the Invention The invention relates to the use of prostaglandin derivatives of type F as ocular hypotensive. The compounds used according to the invention are represented by the following formula I: where the wavy segments indicate either the alpha (a) or beta (ß) configuration, the single-striped segments represent links, the solid triangle represents a β-link, the dotted lines represent a double bond or a single bond, R is a substituted heteroaryl radical having at least two pendant substituents selected from the group consisting of Ci to C6 alkyl; halogen; trifluoromethyl; COR1, COCF3; SO? NR1; N02 and CN or at least one cyano group; R1 is hydrogen or a lower alkyl radical having more than six carbon atoms, X is selected from the group consisting of -OR1 and N (R1) 2, Y is = 0 or represents 2 hydrogen radicals, and the alkyl esters lower 9,11, or 15 thereof; with the proviso, however, that when said heteroaryl radical is a dichlorotienyl radical, the compound is not a 1-carboxylic acid or amide thereof. Some of the compounds represented by Formula I are novel and comprise another aspect of the present invention.
