Description

NEW AGONISTS COMPOUNDS FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to the new opioid receptor agonists, also as to their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, a process for their preparation and their use in the manufacture of pharmaceutical preparations.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Three major types of opioid receptors (compound term to refer to synthetic compounds having an effect similar to that of opium alkaloids, but not derived from it), μ, K and d are known and characterized. The identification of different opioid receptors has led to efforts to develop specific ligands for these receptors. It is known that these ligands are useful for at least two purposes: (a) to allow the more complete characterization of these different receptors and (b) to facilitate the identification of the new analgesic drugs. It has been shown that analgesic drugs that have specificity for a type of individual opioid receptor have less side effects (eg respiratory depression, constipation, dependence) and in case in which tolerance to a drug has developed, a second medication with Different specificity to the opioid receptor can be REP: 23450 cash For example, the successful substitution of DADLE (intrathecal application), a partially d selective analgesic peptide, for morphine in a human patient with cancer, with tolerance to morphine has been demonstrated (ES Krames et al., Pain, Vol. 24 : 205-209, 1986). Evidence that a selective d-agonist could be a potent analgesic with less tolerance and susceptibility to dependence was presented by Frederickson et al. (Science, Vol. 211: 603-605, 1981). The peptide [D-Ala2, N-MeMet5] enkephalinamide or "methefamide" was one hundred times more potent than morphine in the hot plate test for analgesia after i.c.v. administration. (intracerebral ventricular). The precipitation of naloxone from withdrawal after chronic administration of methefamide and morphine in rats showed that animals treated with methefamide exhibited fewer withdrawal symptoms than those administered with morphine, with a score of only slightly above the saline reference group . Methefamide produced substantially less respiratory depression than morphine. Another selective d-peptide, [D-Pen2, D-Pen5] enkephalin (DPFPE) produces potent analgesic effects, while showing little, if any, respiratory depression (CN May, Br. J. Pharmacol., Vol. 98: 903-913, 1989). It was found that DPDPE does not produce gastrointestinal side effects (e.g., constipation) (T.F. Burks, Life Sci., Vol 43: 2177-2181, 1988). Since it is desirable that analgesics be stable against peptidases and be able to enter the CNS (central nervous system) easily, non-peptide analgesics are much more valuable.
Description of the prior art Recently a selective opioid d agonist, not peptide, BW373U86 - a piperazine derivative, has been discovered. It is reported that BW 373U86 is a potent analgesic which does not produce physical dependence (P.H.K. Lee et al., J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., Vol. 267: 983-987, 1993). An undesired side effect of this compound is that it produces convulsions in animals. The seizures were antagonized by the naltrindol opioid selective agonist.

PHARMACEUTICAL PREPARATIONS For the preparation of a pharmaceutical formulation, the active ingredient can be formulated into an injection, capsule, tablet, suppository, solution or the like. The oral formulation and the injection are preferably used. The pharmaceutical formulation may comprise the selective agonist d alone or may also comprise carriers such as stabilizers, pH regulating agents, diluents, isotonic agents, antiseptics and the like. The pharmaceutical formulation may comprise the active ingredient described above in an amount of 1-95% by weight, preferably 10-60% by weight. The dose of the active ingredient can be appropriately selected depending on the administration objectives, route and conditions of administration of the patients. The active ingredient is administered in doses of between 10 mg and 5 g per day in the case of oral administration. The preferred dose for injection is 20-200 mg per day and the preferred amount for oral administration is 50-800 mg per day.
Biological studies Selective agonism was determined by using the preparations for longitudinal ileal muscle of electrically stimulated guinea pigs (GPI, containing myk opioid receptors) (PW Schiller et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., Vol. 58 : 11-18, 1978; J. Di Maio et al., J. Med. Chem., Vol. 25: 1432-1438, 1982) and preparation of mouse vas deferens (MVD: containing opioid receptors μ, K and d) . The activities of the compounds to inhibit the contraction of the organs was measured. In the GPI, compounds 1 and 12 showed no contraction inhibition up to 5,000 nM and 10,000 nM, respectively. These findings suggest that there is no agonist effect on the m and k opioid receptors. In the MVD, the compounds tested showed selective d agonism.
The biological studies of the new morphinan derivatives of the formula (I) of the present invention, have shown that these compounds have selectivity for receptors or opioids and are effective as opioid agonists. Studies with selective opioid d agonists have shown that this class of compounds have no susceptibility to dependence and produce substantially less respiratory depression than morphine. Susceptibility to dependence and respiratory depression are the most serious side effects of opioid agonists used as analgesics (eg, morphine). Therefore, the compounds according to the present invention are useful as analgesics without showing the more serious side effects of opioid analgesics. It is noted that in relation to this date, the best method known to the applicant to carry out the aforementioned invention, is that which is clear from the present description of the invention. Having described the invention as above, property is claimed as contained in the following
