Description

<div class="application article clearfix" id="description"> <p class="printTableText" lang="en">New Zealand Paient Spedficaiion for Paient Number 565878 <br><br> 565878 <br><br> WO 2007/010546 PCT/IN2005/000318 <br><br> TITLE: "COMPOUNDS FOR TREATMENT OF LIPASE-MEDIATED DISEASES" <br><br> Technical Field of the Invention <br><br> The present invention relates to novel heterocyclic compounds of benzoquinones that affect the activity of enzymes of lipase gene family. The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions that contain the benzoquinone derived compounds, process for preparing the same and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, derivatives, isomers, polymorphs, solvates thereof having a selective activity on diseases and conditions mediated by genes of lipase family. <br><br> BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION <br><br> In many developed and developing countries, the trend towards adoption of a diet containing high fat content and low fiber concentrations continuous to be on the rise, accompanied by a labor-unintensive sedentary lifestyle. Such excessive intake of fat, accompanied by reduced conversion of fat into energy because of sedentary lifestyles can lead to accumulation of fat in the body at various levels including body fluids, cells and tissues. Consequently there is a steady rise in a population at a heightened risk of metabolic disorders such as overweight or obesity, which progresses to associated disorders like diabetes, cardiovascular disorders, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension. <br><br> In general the first line of treatment for individuals suffering from such metabolic disorders, in particular overweight or obesity, involves adoption of a diet low in fat and regular exercise. Compliance with such regimen however can be poor and, as the disease progresses, treatment with therapeutic drugs becomes necessary. <br><br> Accordingly, studies have been made towards developing drugs that are safe and effective for prevention and treatment of clinical manifestations that are caused as a consequence of accumulation of fat in body fluids, cells and tissues. Thus, there is a continuing necessity for decreasing the absorption and accumulation of fat in the body in some manner. <br><br> 1 <br><br> 565878 <br><br> WO 2007/010546 PCT/IN2005/000318 <br><br> One approach to prevent or reduce fat accumulation is by reducing or inhibiting agents that aid in digestion and absorption of fat at various levels in the body. Enzymes belonging to the lipase gene family are of the central importance in lipid metabolism, absorption and transportation. <br><br> Hepatic lipase and lipoprotein lipase are multifunctional proteins which mediate the binding, uptake, catabolism, and remodeling of lipoproteins and phospholipids. Lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase function while bound to the luminal surface of endothelial cells in peripheral tissues and the liver respectively. -Both enzymes participate in reverse cholesterol transport, which is the movement of cholesterol from peripheral tissues to the liver either for excretion from the body or for recycling. Genetic defects in both hepatic lipase and lipoprotein lipase are known to be the cause of familial disorders of lipoprotein metabolism. Defects in the metabolism of lipoproteins result in serious metabolic disorders, including hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipidemia, and atherosclerosis. <br><br> The lipase gene family enzymes are involved in a wide array of metabolic pathways, ranging from lipid digestion, absorption, fatty acid uptake, lipoprotein transportation and also in inflammation (Wong Howard et al., 2002, The lipase gene family, Journal of Lipid Research, Vol. 43: 993-999). <br><br> Pancreatic lipase is one of the key enzymes in lipid metabolism. It is synthesized by pancreatic acinar cells where it is secreted into the intestinal lumen and aids in the intestinal absorption of long chain triglyceride fatty acids (Verger, R. 1984, Pancreatic Lipases In Lipases. B. Borgstrom and H.L. Brockman, editors. Elsevier, New York. 83-150; Lowe, M. E. 1997, Molecular mechanisms of rat and human pancreatic triglyceride lipases. J. Nutr. 127: 549-557). <br><br> The action of the triacylglycerol lipases is believed to be antiatherogenic because these enzymes lower serum triacylglycerol levels and promotes HDL formation. (Olivecrona, G., and Olivecrona, T. (1995) Curr. Opin. Lipid. 6:291-305). Lipoprotein lipase is the major enzyme responsible for the distribution and utilization of triglycerides in the body. Lipoprotein lipase hydrolyzes triglycerides in both chylomicrons and VLDL. Hepatic lipase hydrolyzes triglycerides in IDL and HDL, and is responsible for lipoprotein <br><br> 2 <br><br> WO 2007/010546 <br><br> PCT/IN2005/000318 <br><br> remodeling. Hepatic lipase also functions as a phospholipase, and hydrolyzes phospholipids in HDL. <br><br> Lipase members function in the metabolism of circulating lipoproteins. Hepatic lipase plays a role in the uptake of HDL cholesterol (Olivecrona, T., et al. 1993, Lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase. Curr. Opin. Lipidol. 4: 187-196). It is synthesized exclusively in the liver, where it is predominantly found (Hixenbaugh, E. A, et al., 1989, Hepatic lipase in the rat ovary. J. Biol. Chem. 264: 4222-4230). <br><br> A third member of the lipase gene family, lipoprotein lipase (LPL), is distributed in a variety of tissues, with the highest concentrations occurring in adipose tissue and muscle. This lipase is bound to capillary endothelium, where it functions to supply the underlying tissue with fatty acids derived from the triglyceride-rich core of circulating chylomicrons and VLDL (Olivecrona, T., and G. Bengtsson-Olivecrona. 1993. Lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase. Curr, Opin. Lipidol. 4: 187-196). In the process, LPL transforms these lipoproteins into remnant and HDL particles. Accumulating evidence suggest that LPL produced by macrophages in the vascular wall may facilitate the development of atherosclerosis by promoting lipid accumulation within the lesion. LPL has been shown to be involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis (Mead JR, et al. 1999, "Lipoprotein Lipase, a key role in atherosclerosis?" FEBS Lett., Nov 26, 462(1-2): 1-6). Several groups have also proposed that both LPL and hepatic lipase besides their traditional role as lipolytic enzyme also appear to serve as ligands in the metabolism of plasma lipoproteins (Nykjaer, A., et al., 1993, The alpha 2-macroglobulin receptor/low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein binds lipoprotein lipase and beta-migrating very low density lipoprotein associated with the lipase. J. Biol. Chem. 268: 15048-15055; Krapp, A., S. et al., 1996. Hepatic lipase mediates the uptake of chylomicrons and VLDL into cells via the LDL receptor-related protein (LRP). J. Lipid Res. 37: 926-936). Transgenic animals expressing human lipoprotein lipase or hepatic lipase have decreased levels of plasma triglycerides and an increased level of high density lipoprotein (HDL) (Shimada, M., et al (1993) J. Biol. Chem. 268:17924-17929; Liu, M.-S., et al. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269:11417-11424). <br><br> 565878 <br><br> WO 2007/010546 PCT/IN2005/000318 <br><br> A more recently discovered member of the lipase gene family is endothelial lipase. The function of this lipase is though uncertain at this time, it is believed to have a role in HDL metabolism (Jaye, M., et al., 1999, A novel endothelial-derived lipase that modulates HDL metabolism. Nat. Genet. 21: 424—428). <br><br> With the increasingly recognized potential of lipases in fat metabolism pathway, the drugs that inhibit or reduce the activity of lipases at various levels in the body form the front line of therapy for the treatment of diseases mediated by accumulation of fat at elevated levels. <br><br> A lipase inhibitor that is marketed as anti-obesity drug include Orlistat (XENICAL®) is described in U.S. Patent No. 4598089. European Patent Application No. EP129748, relates to Orlistat and related compounds and their use in inhibiting pancreatic lipase and treating hyperlipidemia and obesity. Orlistat inhibits only intestinal lipases such as gastric, pancreatic and carboxylester lipases, particularly pancreatic lipase, in the gut lumen and blocks the digestion of dietary fat by preventing lipase from interacting with its lipid target. It however does not appear to have an effect on lipases other than the intestinal lipases, such as hepatic lipase or endothelial lipase, which are also recognized as having roles in catalyzing the hydrolysis of lipids. (Drent ML, van der Veen EA. Lipase inhibition: A novel concept in the treatment of obesity. Int J. Obes. Relat. Metab. Disord. 1993; 17:241-244.) Orlistat also tends to produce a high incidence of unpleasant (relatively harmless) side effects such as diarrhea. <br><br> Compounds that inhibit hepatic lipase and/or endothelial lipase activity have been disclosed in PCT Application No. W02004094393 for the treatment of hepatic and/or endothelial lipase mediated diseases. The compounds are primarily directed towards increasing HDL levels by inhibiting the activity of hepatic and/or endothelial lipase, and are not intended to target intestinal or other lipases. <br><br> Therefore, it is desirable to develop new compounds that are useful in reducing or inhibiting metabolism, absorption, and accumulation of fat at various levels including fluids, cells, and tissues in the body by inhibiting or reducing the activity of all members of lipase gene family of interest and not just a particular type of lipase. <br><br> 4 <br><br> 565878 <br><br> RECEIVED at IPONZ on 26 March 2010 <br><br> A plant benzoquinone embelin (2,5-dihydroxy-3-uiidecyi-l,4-beii20quuione) obtained from the dried fruit of Embelia ribes and known as an antifertility agent has also been reported to elevate activities of the lipogenic enzymes, malate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase while essentially not affecting lipolytic enzyme activities. (Gupta S. et al., Fitoterapia 60(4):331-338 (1989).) Embelin is also used as a teniacide, as having antitumor, anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties (Chitra et al. Chemotherapy 40:109 (1994)) and as a cell-permeable, non-peptide inhibitor of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP). (Nikolovska-Coleska et al. J. Med. Chem. 47:2430 (2004)). <br><br> It is an object of the present invention to go some way towards providing this desideratum and/or to provide the public with a useful choice. <br><br> SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION <br><br> In a first aspect the invention provides a use of a compound selected from 2,5-dihydroxy-3-undecyl-p-benzoquinine, the compounds of any one of formulae (I), (II) and (III), optical isomers thereof, polymorphs thereof, and pharmaceutical^ acceptable esters, ethers, carbamates, oximes of said compounds, said isomers or said polymorphs, all solvates and hydrates thereof and all salts thereof, in the manufacture of a medicament for use in a method for treatment, amelioration or prevention of a disease or condition mediated by a lipase gene family enzyme comprising inhibiting or reducing activity of an enzyme belonging to lipase gene family to an extent that treats, ameliorates or prevents the disease or condition <br><br> 5 <br><br> 565878 <br><br> RECEIVED at IPONZ on 16 December 2009 <br><br> O <br><br> (I) <br><br> o wherein Ri and R2 are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, C3-C13 alkyl, C1-C20 haloalkyl, C2-C13 alkenyl, C2-C13 alkynyl, C4-C6 cycloalkyl, C4-C6 cycloalkenyl, C1-C13 alkoxyalkyl, C1-C5 alkylcycloalkyl, C1-C5 alkylcycloalkenyl, C1-C13 alkylamine, C1-C13 arylamine, C(0)Ci-C6 alkyl, 0-C(0)Ci-C6 alkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, alkylaryl, C(0)aryl and 0-C(0)aryl;

( concentrated), SiC&gt;2( silicon dioxide), NaaSCU ( sodium sulphate) <br><br> h) The intermediates used in the following examples have been sourced from Sigma Lipases <br><br> Three members of the human triacylglycerol lipase family have been described: pancreatic lipase, lipoprotein lipase, and hepatic lipase (Goldberg, I. J., Le, N.-A., Ginsberg, H. N., Krauss, R. M., and Lindgren, F. T. (1988) J. Clin. Invest. 81,561-568; Goldberg, I. J., Le, N., Paterniti J. R., Ginsberg, H. N., Lindgren, F. T., and Brown, W. V. (1982) J. Clin. Invest. 70,1184-1192; Hide, W. A., Chan, L., and Li, W.-H. (1992) J. Lipid. Res. 33,167-178). Pancreatic lipase is primarily responsible for the hydrolysis of dietary lipids. Variants of pancreatic lipase have been described, but their physiological role has not been determined (Giller, T., Buchwald, P., Blum-Kaelin, D., and Hunziker, W. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267,16509-16516). <br><br> The lipase polypeptides encoded by these lipase genes are approximately 450 amino acids in length with leader signal peptides to facilitate secretion. The lipase proteins are comprised of two principal domains (Winkler, K., D'Arcy, A., and Hunziker, W. (1990) Nature 343, 771-774). The amino terminal domain contains the catalytic site while the carboxyl domain is believed to be responsible for substrate binding, cofactor association, and interaction with cell receptors (Wong, H., Davis, R. C., Nikazy, J., Seebart, K. E., and Schotz, M. C. (1991) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 88,11290-11294; van Tilbeurgh, H., Roussel, A., Lalouel, J.-M., and Cambillau, C. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269,4626-4633; <br><br> 565878 <br><br> WO 2007/010546 PCT/IN2005/000318 <br><br> Wong, H., Davis, R. C., Thuren, T., Goers, J. W., Nikazy, J., Waite, M., and Schotz, M. C. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269,10319-10323; Chappell, D. A., Inoue, I., Fry, G. L., Pladet, M. W., Bowen, S. L., Iverius, P.-H., Lalouel, J.-M., and Strickland, D. K. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269,18001-18006). The overall level of amino acid homology between members of the family is 22-65%, with local regions of high homology corresponding to structural homologies which are linked to enzymatic function. <br><br> Members of the triacylglycerol lipase family share a number of conserved structural features. One such feature is the "GXSXG" motif, in which the central serine residue is one of the three residues comprising the "catalytic triad" (Winkler, K.., D'Arcy, A., and Hunziker, W. (1990) Nature 343, 771-774; Faustinella, F., Smith, L. C., and Chan, L. (1992) Biochemistry 31,7219-7223). Conserved aspartate and histidine residues make up the balance of the catalytic triad. A short span of 19-23 amino acids (the "lid region") forms an amphipathic helix structure and covers the catalytic pocket of the enzyme (Winkler, K., D'Arcy, A., and Hunziker, W. (1990) Nature 343, 771-774). Comparisons between hepatic and lipoprotein lipase have demonstrated that differences in triacylglycerol lipase and phospholipase activities of the enzymes are in part mediated by this lid region (Dugi, IC. A., Dichek H. L., and Santamarina-Fojo, S. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 25396-25401). Triacylglycerol lipases possess varying degrees of heparin binding activity. Lipoprotein lipase has the highest affinity for heparin, and this binding activity has been mapped to stretches of positively charged residues in the amino terminal domain (Ma, Y., Henderson, H. E., Liu, M.-S., Zhang, H., Forsythe, I. J., Clarke-Lewis, I., Hayden, M. R., and Brunzell, J. D. J. Lipid Res. 35,2049-2059). <br><br> The genetic sequences encoding human pancreatic lipase, hepatic lipase and lipoprotein lipase have been reported (GenBank accession #M93285, #J03540, and #M15856 respectively). The messenger RNAs of human hepatic lipase and pancreatic lipase are approximately 1.7 and 1.8 kilobases in length respectively. Two mRNA transcripts of 3.6 and 3.2 kilobases are produced from the human lipoprotein lipase gene. (Ranganathan, G., Ong, J. M., Yukht, A.; Saghizadeh, M., Simsolo, R. B., Pauer, A., and Kern, P. A.

The term "prodrug" includes a compound that is transformed in vivo to yield a compound of Formulas (I), (II) or (III). Information about the use of prodrugs may be found in "Pro-drugs as Novel Delivery Systems," Vol. 14 of the A.C.S. Symposium Series, by T. Higuchi and W. Stella, and in Bioreversible Carriers in Drug Design, ed. Edward B. Roche, American Pharmaceutical Association and Pergamon Press, 1987. <br><br> Suitable active metabolites of compounds within the scope of Formulas (I), (II) or (III), in any suitable form, are also included herein. <br><br> The compounds of the present invention may contain asymmetric or chiral centers, and therefore may exist in different stereoisomeric forms. All suitable optical isomers and stereoisomeric forms of the compounds of the present invention as well as mixtures thereof, including racemic mixtures, form part of the present invention. In addition, the present invention embraces all geometric and positional isomers. For example, if a compound of the present invention incorporates a double bond or a fused ring, the cis-and trans-forms, as well as mixtures, are embraced within the scope of the invention. With respect to such compounds, the present invention includes the use of a racemate, a single enantiomeric form, a single diastereomeric form, or mixtures thereof, as suitable. Moreover, such compounds may also exist as tautomers. Accordingly, the present <br><br> 17 <br><br> 565878 <br><br> WO 2007/010546 PCT/IN2005/000318 <br><br> invention relates to the use of all such suitable tautomers and mixtures thereof. Diastereomeric mixtures can be separated into their individual diastereoisomers on the basis of their physical chemical differences by methods well known to those skilled in the art, such as by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization. Enantiomers can be separated by converting the enantiomeric mixture into a diastereomeric mixture by reaction with an appropriate optically active compound (e.g., chiral auxiliary such as a chiral alcohol or Mosher's acid chloride), separating the diastereoisomers and converting (e.g., hydrolyzing) the individual diastereoisomers to the corresponding pure enantiomers or by resolution of the racemic form by recrystallization techniques, by synthesis from optically-active starting materials, by chiral synthesis, or by chromatographic separation using a chiral stationary phase. Also, some of the compounds of the present invention may be atropisomers (e.g., substituted biaryls) and are considered as part of this invention. Enantiomers can also be separated by use of a chiral HPLC column. <br><br> Moreover, some compounds of the present invention may exhibit polymorphism. The scope of the present invention includes all polymorphic forms of the compounds according to the invention, which forms the further aspect of the invention. It is to be understood that the present invention encompasses any and all racemic, optically-active, polymorphic and stereoisomeric forms, or mixtures thereof, which form or forms possess properties useful in the treatment of the conditions indicated herein. <br><br> Furthermore, the present invention also include isotopically-labeled compounds of the present invention which are identical to those recited herein, but for the fact that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds of the invention include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, fluorine, iodine, and chlorine, such as 2H, 3H, llC3 l3C, l4C, l3N, 15N, 150,170, l80,31P, 32P, 35S, l8F? 1231, 125I and 36C1, respectively. Certain isotopically-labeled compounds of the present invention (e.g., those labeled with. 3H and. 14C) are useful in compound and/or substrate tissue distribution assays. Tritiated (i.e.,. 3H) and carbon-14 (i.e., 14C) isotopes are particularly preferred for their ease of preparation and delegability. Further, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium (i.e.,2H) may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater <br><br> 18 <br><br> WO 2007/010546 <br><br> 565878 <br><br> RECEIVED at IPONZ on 16 December 2009 <br><br> PCT/1N2005/000318 <br><br> metabolic stability (e.g., increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements) and hence may be preferred in some circumstances. Positron emitting isotopes such as 150, 13N, hC, and l8F are useful for positron emission tomography (PET) studies to examine substrate receptor occupancy. Isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention can generally be prepared by procedures analogous to those disclosed in the Examples herein below, by substituting an isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent. <br><br> Also described is a process for preparing compounds of <br><br> Formulas (I), (II) or (HI). Those skilled in the art will understand from this disclosure how to prepare the most preferred compounds of the present invention using any suitable known method. Compounds of Formulas (I), (II) or (HI) and, unless otherwise indicated, Ri, R2, as described above may be conveniently prepared according to Scheme I. <br><br> In addition, the examples provided herein further illustrate the preparation of the compounds of the present invention. Moreover, those skilled in the art will understand from the present disclosure how to modify Scheme I, and the details of the examples described hereinafter to prepare any specific compound of Formulas (I), (II) or (III) of the present invention as desired. It should be understood that Scheme I is provided solely for the purposes of illustration and depicts potential route for synthesizing compounds of Formulas (I), (II) or (HI) and does not limit the invention. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that other synthetic routes may be used to synthesize the compounds of the present invention. Although specific starting materials and reagents are depicted in the Scheme I illustrated below, the suitable substitution can be easily made to provide a variety of derivatives and reaction conditions. In addition, many of the compounds prepared by the method described below can be further modified in light of the disclosure using the conventional chemistry known to those skilled in the art. <br><br> 19 <br><br> WO 2007/010546 <br><br> 565878 <br><br> RECEIVED at IPONZ on 16 December 2009 <br><br> PCT/IN2005/000318 <br><br> Scheme I: <br><br> O <br><br> HO^V&gt;&lt;0 oh2ci* <br><br> II 10 Temperature 1 [j q <br><br> 0 Co-solvent O <br><br> JL^OH <br><br> o <br><br> Co-solvent <br><br> Scheme I depicts a genera] protocol for preparing compound of Formulas (I), (II) or (HI) starting from 2,5-dihydroxy-3-undecyI-l,4-benzoquinone or its oxime, or substituted oxime, or suitable salt or analogs thereof.

Alternatively a pharmaceutical composition may comprise of at least one additional pharmaceutically active agent. Additional active pharmaceutical agent may be selected from chemically synthesized compounds or those derived from natural origin having desired pharmacological activity. <br><br> Formulations <br><br> A compound of Formulas (la), (Ha) or (Ilia) or a derivative thereof can be administered in any conventional oral, buccal, nasal, by inhalation spray in unit dosage form, parenteral, (for example, intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous intrastemal or by infusion techniques), topical (for example, powder, ointment or drop), "transdermal, intracistemal, intravaginal, intraperitoneal, intravesical, or rectal,. In another aspect of the invention, the compound of the present invention and at least one other pharmaceutically active agent may be administered either separately or in the pharmaceutical composition comprising both. It is generally preferred that such administration be oral. However, if the subject being treated is unable to swallow, or oral administration is otherwise impaired or undesirable, parenteral or transdermal administration may be appropriate. <br><br> A compound of Formulas (la), (Ha) or (Ilia) or a derivative thereof can be administered in the form of any modified release, controlled release or timed release formulations, (see, e.g., Langer, Science 249:1527-1533 (1990)). In one embodiment, a pump can be used (Langer, Science 249:1527-1533 (1990); Sefton, CRC Crit. Ref. Biomed. Eng. 14:201 (1987); Buchwald et al., Surgery 88:507 (1980); and Saudek et al., N. Engl. J.

Rather it is widely variable and subject to the pathologies, conditions, symptoms, or age of the subject and judgment of the attending physician or veterinarian. The general range of effective administration rates of the compounds of the present invention is from about 0.001 mg/kg body weight to about 100 mg/kg body weight of the subject per day. A preferred range of effective administration rates of the compounds of this invention is from about 0.01 mg/kg body weight to about 50 mg/kg body weight of the subject per day. Amounts are selected based on various factors, including the milieu to which the composition is administered, the site of the cells to be treated, the age, health, gender, and weight of a patient or animal to be treated, etc. Useful amounts include, 1,5, 15,20,25, 30, 40, 60, 150,200 milligrams, 1 gm, 2 gm, 3 gm, and ranges between 10 milligrams-100 grams, 50 milligrams - 5 grams, 100 milligrams-10 grams, 250 milligrams-2.5 grams, 500 milligrams-1.25 grams, etc., per dosage. While it may be practical to administer the daily dose of a compound of tills invention, in portions, at various hours of the day, in any given case, the amount of compound of this invention will depend on such factors as the solubility of the compound, prodrug, isomer or pharmaceutically acceptable salt of this invention, the formulation used and the route of administration (e.g., orally, transdetmally, parenterally or topically). <br><br> Dosages of the compounds of the present invention can be administered to humans by any suitable route, with oral administration being preferable. Individual oral dosage form for example, tablets or capsules should generally contain from about 0.1 mg to about 100 mg of compound of this invention, in a suitable pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle, diluent or carrier. Dosages for intravenous administration are generally within the range of from about 0.1 mg to about 10 rag per single dose as required. For intranasal or inhaler administration, the dosage is generally formulated as from about a 0.1% to about a 1% (w/v) solution. In practice, the physician will determine the actual dosage, which will be most suitable for an individual patient, and it will vary with, e.g., age, weight and response of the particular patient. The above dosages are exemplary of the average case but there can, of course, be individual instances where higher or lower dosage ranges are <br><br> 23 <br><br> WO 2007/010546 <br><br> 565878 <br><br> RECEIVED at IPONZ on 16 December 2009 <br><br> PCT/IN2005/000318 <br><br> possible, such dosages of compounds of this invention, are within the scope of the present invention. <br><br> It is another preferred embodiment' of the present invention to provide compounds of Formulas (la), (Ila) or (Ilia) and derivatives thereof for manufacturing pharmaceutical formulations for the prophylaxis and therapy of conditions, diseases and/or disorders mediated by enzymes belonging to the lipase gene family including but not limited to overweight or obesity, hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, pancreatitis, hyperglycemia, atherosclerosis, metabolic syndromes, other cardiovascular diseases, and other metabolic disorders. The pharmaceutical formulation comprising a compound of Formulas (la), (Ila) or (Ilia) or the derivatives thereof may be formulated in a conventional manner known to those skilled at the art using one or more pharmaceutically acceptable diluent, carrier, or vehicle. <br><br> For oral administration the pharmaceutical formulations that may be used in the present invention include tablets, chewable tablets, controlled release tablets, capsules, lozenges, granules, powders, pills, microcapsules, elixirs, syrups, and suspensions. <br><br> In general tablets can be prepared by methods known in pharmaceutical science by direct compression, by wet granulation, or by dry granulation. Their formulations usually incorporate diluents, binders, lubricants and disintegrators as well as a compound of this invention. Common diluents include, for example, various types of starch, lactose, mannitol, kaolin, calcium phosphate or sulfate, inorganic salts such as sodium chloride and powdered sugar. Powdered cellulose derivatives may also be used. Common tablet binders include substances such as starch, gelatin and sugars such as lactose, fructose, glucose and the like. Natural and synthetic gums are also convenient, including acacia, alginates, methylcellulose, polyvinylpynolidine and the like. Polyethylene glycol, ethylcellulose and waxes can also serve as binders. <br><br> A lubricant is generally necessary in a tablet formulation to prevent the tablet and punches from sticking in the die. The lubricant is chosen from such slippery solids as talc, magnesium and calcium stearate, stearic acid and hydrogenated vegetable oils. Tablet disintegrators include substances, which swell when wetted to break up the tablet and release a compound, prodrug, isomer or pharmaceutically acceptable salt of this <br><br> 24 <br><br> 565878 <br><br> WO 2007/010546 PCT/IN2005/000318 <br><br> invention. They include starches, clays, celluloses, algins and gums. More particularly, corn and potato starches, methylcellulose, agar, bentonite, wood cellulose, powdered natural sponge, cation-exchange resins, alginic acid, guar gum, citrus pulp and carboxymethylcellulose, for example, may be used as well as sodium lauryl sulfate. Tablets are often coated with sugar as a flavor and sealant, or with film-forming protecting agents to modify the dissolution properties of the tablet. The compounds of the invention may also be formulated as chewable tablets, by using large amounts of pleasant-tasting substances such as mannitol in the formulation, as is now well-established in the art. <br><br> As discussed above, the effect of a compound of this invention may be controlled that is delayed or prolonged or time bound by proper formulation. For example, a slowly soluble pellet of a compound of this invention may be prepared and incorporated in a tablet or capsule. The technique may be improved by making pellets of several different dissolution rates with subsequent filling the mixture of these pellets in capsules. Tablets or capsules may be coated with a film, which resists dissolution for a predictable period of time. <br><br> Capsules can be prepared by mixing a compound of the invention with a suitable diluent and filling the proper amount of the mixture in capsules. The usual diluents include inert powdered substances such as starch of many different kinds, powdered cellulose, especially crystalline and microcrystalline cellulose, sugars such as fructose, mannitol and sucrose, grain flours and similar edible powders. <br><br> Liquid preparations for oral administration may take the form of, for example, solutions, syrups or suspensions, or they may be presented as a dry product for constitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may be prepared by conventional means with pharmaceutically acceptable additives such as suspending/viscosity enhancing agents (e.g. sorbitol syrup, methyl cellulose or hydrogenated edible fats); emulsifying agents (e.g. lecithin or acacia); non-aqueous vehicles (e.g. almond oil, oily esters or ethyl alcohol, medium chain triglycerides); and preservatives (e.g. methyl or propyl p-hydroxybenzoates or sorbic acid). <br><br> 25 <br><br> 565878 <br><br> WO 2007/010546 PCT/IN2005/000318 <br><br> For parenteral administration the compounds of the invention may be formulated in the form of an injection, including using conventional catheterization techniques or infusion. Formulations for injection may be presented in unit dosage form e.g. in ampoules or in multi-dose containers, with an added preservative. The compositions may take such forms as suspensions, solutions or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and may contain formulating agents such as suspending, stabilizing and/or dispersing agents. The injectable solutions or suspensions may be formulated according to known art, using suitable non-toxic, parenterally-acceptable diluents or solvents, such as mannitol, 1,3-butanediol, water, Ringer's solution or isotonic sodium chloride solution, or suitable dispersing or wetting and suspending agents, such as sterile, bland, fixed oils, including synthetic mono- or diglycerides, and fatty acids, including oleic acid and surfactants such as, for example, hydroxypropyl cellulose, also the pH of the solution being suitably adjusted and buffered, where necessary. Generally oily solutions are suitable for intraarticular, intramuscular and subcutaneous injection purposes. Such aqueous solutions are suitable for intravenous injection purposes. Alternatively, the active ingredient may be in powder form for reconstitution with a suitable vehicle, e.g. sterile pyrogen-free water, before use. The parenteral preparations may also be made long-acting by dissolving or suspending a compound, prodrug, isomer or pharmaceutically acceptable salt of this invention, as the case may be, in oily or emulsified vehicles which allow it to disperse only slowly in the serum. <br><br> For intranasal administration or administration by inhalation, the compounds of the present invention are conveniently delivered in the form of a solution or suspension from a pump spray container that is squeezed or pumped by the patient or as an aerosol spray presentation from a pressurized container or a nebulizer, with the use of a suitable propellant, e.g. dichlorodifluoromethane, triehl oro fl uoro methane, <br><br> dichlorotetrafluoroethane, carbon dioxide or other suitable gas. In the case of a pressurized aerosol, the dosage unit may be determined by providing a valve to deliver a metered amount. The pressurized container or nebulizer may contain a solution or suspension of the active compound.
