PYRIMIDINE CYCLOHEXYL GLUCOCORTICOID RECEPTOR MODULATORS CROSS—REFERENCES TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims priority to US. Provisional Application No. ,289, filed March 18, 201 1, which is incorporated in its entirety herein for all BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In most species, including man, the physiological glucocorticoid is cortisol (hydrocortisone). Glucocorticoids are secreted in response to ACTH (corticotropin), which shows both circadian rhythm variation and elevations in response to stress and food. Cortisol levels are responsive within minutes to many physical and psychological stresses, including trauma, surgery, exercise, anxiety and depression. Cortisol is a steroid and acts by binding to an ellular, glucocorticoid receptor (GR). In man, glucocorticoid receptors are present in two forms: a ligand-binding GR—alpha of 777 amino acids; and, a GR-beta isoform which s in only the last fifteen amino acids. The two types of GR have high affinity for their specific ligands, and are considered to function through the same transduction pathways.
The biologic effects of cortisol, including those caused by ortisolemia, can be modulated at the GR level using or modulators, such as agonists, partial agonists and antagonists. Several different classes of agents are able to block the physiologic effects of GR-agonist binding. These antagonists include compositions which, by binding to GR, block the y of an t to effectively bind to and/or activate the GR. One such known GR antagonist, mifepristone, has been found to be an effective anti-glucocorticoid agent in humans (Bertagna (1984) J Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 59:25). Mifepristone binds to the GR with high affinity, with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 10'9 M (Cadepond (1997) Annu. Rev.
Med. 48:129).
In addition to cortisol, the biological effects of other steroids can be modulated at the GR level using receptor modulators, such as agonists, partial ts and nists.
When administered to subjects in need f, steroids can provide both intended therapeutic effects, e. g., by stimulating orticoid receptor transrepression, as well as negative side effects, e. g. by chronic glucocorticoid receptor transactivation. What is needed in the art are new compositions and methods for modulating GR receptors. Similarly, the present ion meets these and other needs.

Each of the above terms (e.g, ," "aryl" and "heteroaryl") are meant to include both substituted and unsubstituted forms of the indicated radical. Examples of substituents for each type of radical are ed below.
Substituents for the alkyl and heteroalkyl radicals (including those groups often referred to as alkylene, alkenyl, heteroalkylene, heteroalkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, and heterocycloalkenyl) can be one or more of a variety of groups selected from, but not limited to: —OR', =0, =NR', =N-OR', —NR'R", -SR', -halogen, —SiR'R"R"', -OC(O)R', -C(O)R', —COZR', -CONR‘R", —OC(O)NR'R", -NR"C(O)R', -NR'—C(O)NR"R"', —NR"C(O)2R’, -NR-C(NR'R"R”')=NR"", —NR—C(NR’R")=NR"‘, ~S(O)R’, —S(O)2R', —S(O)2NR'R", Z)R', -CN and —N02 in a number ranging from zero to (2m'+l), where m’ is the total number of carbon atoms in such radical. R', R", R'” and R"" each preferably independently refer to hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, substituted or tituted aryl (e. g., aryl substituted with 1—3 ns), substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, alkoxy or thioalkoxy groups, or arylalkyl groups. When a compound of the present invention includes more than one R group, for example, each of the R groups is independently selected as are each R', R", R'" and R"" groups when more than one of these groups is present. When R' and R" are attached to the same nitrogen atom, they can be combined with the nitrogen atom to form a 4-, 5-, 6-, or 7-membered ring. For example, —NR'R" is meant to include, but not be d to, l—pyrrolidinyl and 4-morpholinyl. From the above discussion of substituents, one of skill in the art will understand that the term "alkyl" is meant to include groups ing carbon atoms bound to groups other than hydrogen groups, such as haloalkyl (e.g., -CF3 and —CH2CF3) and acyl (e.g., H3, -C(O)CF3, H20CH3, and the like).

When a compound of the present invention es more than one R group, for e, each of the R groups is independently selected as are each R’, R", R'" and R"" groups when more than one of these groups is present.
Where two substituents are "optionally joined together to form a ring," the two substituents are covalently bonded together with the atom or atoms to which the two substituents are joined to form a substituted or unsubstituted aryl, a tuted or unsubstituted heteroaryl, a substituted or unsubstituted lkyl, or a substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl ring.

These salts may be prepared by methods known to those skilled in art. Also included are base addition salts such as sodium, potassium, calcium, ammonium, organic amino, or magnesium salt, or a similar salt. When compounds of the t ion contain relatively basic functionalities, acid addition salts can be obtained by contacting the neutral form of such compounds with a sufficient amount of the desired acid, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of able acid addition salts e those derived from inorganic acids like hydrochloric, hydrobromic, nitric, carbonic, monohydrogencarbonic, phosphoric, monohydrogenphosphoric, dihydrogenphosphoric, ic, monohydrogensulfuric, hydriodic, or phosphorous acids and the like, as well as the salts derived c acids like acetic, propionic, isobutyric, maleic, malonic, benzoic, ic, suberic, fumaric, , mandelic, phthalic, benzenesulfonic, p-tolylsulfonic, citric, tartaric, methanesulfonic, and the like.

Certain specific compounds of the present invention contain both basic and acidic functionalities that allow the compounds to be converted into either base or acid addition salts.
Other salts include acid or base salts of the compounds used in the methods of the t invention. Illustrative examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts are mineral acid (hydrochloric acid, romic acid, phosphoric acid, and the like) salts, organic acid (acetic acid, propionic acid, glutamic acid, citric acid and the like) salts, and quaternary ammonium (methyl iodide, ethyl iodide, and the like) salts. It is understood that the pharmaceutically acceptable salts are non-toxic. Additional information on suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be found in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 17th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., 1985, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts includes salts of the active compounds which are prepared with relatively nontoxic acids or bases, depending on the particular substituents found on the compounds described herein. When compounds of the present invention contain relatively acidic functionalities, base addition salts can be obtained by contacting the neutral form of such compounds with a sufficient amount of the desired base, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically able base addition salts include sodium, potassium, calcium, ammonium, organic amino, or magnesium salt, or a similar salt.
When nds of the t invention contain relatively basic functionalities, acid on salts can be obtained by contacting the neutral form of such compounds with a sufficient amount of the desired acid, either neat or in a le inert solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts e those derived from inorganic acids like hydrochloric, hydrobromic, nitric, carbonic, monohydrogencarbonic, phosphoric, drogenphosphoric, dihydrogenphosphoric, ic, monohydrogensulfuric, hydriodic, or phosphorous acids and the like, as well as the salts derived from relatively nontoxic organic acids like acetic, propionic, isobutyric, maleic, malonic, benzoic, succinic, suberic, fumaric, lactic, ic, phthalic, benzenesulfonic, p-tolylsulfonic, citric, tartaric, methanesulfonic, and the like. Also included are salts of amino acids such as arginate and the like, and salts of organic acids like glucuronic or galactunoric acids and the like (see, for example, Berge et al., "Pharmaceutical Salts", Journal ofPharmaceutical Science, 1977, 66, 1-19). Certain specific compounds of the present invention contain both basic and acidic functionalities that allow the compounds to be converted into either base or acid addition salts.
The neutral forms of the compounds are preferably regenerated by contacting the salt with a base or acid and isolating the parent compound in the tional . The parent form of the compound differs from the s salt forms in n physical properties, such as solubility in polar solvents.
[0060] Certain compounds of the present invention can exist in ated forms as well as ed forms, including hydrated forms. In general, the solvated forms are lent to unsolvated forms and are encompassed within the scope of the present invention. Certain compounds of the present invention may exist in multiple crystalline or amorphous forms. In 2012/029376 general, all physical forms are equivalent for the uses contemplated by the present invention and are intended to be within the scope of the present invention.
Certain compounds of the present invention possess asymmetric carbon atoms (optical centers) or double bonds; the enantiomers, racemates, diastereomers, tautomers, geometric isomers, stereoisometric forms that may be defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (R)-or (S)— or, as (D)— or (L)- for amino acids, and individual isomers are encompassed within the scope of the present invention. The compounds of the present invention do not include those which are known in art to be too unstable to synthesize and/or isolate. The present invention is meant to include compounds in racemic and optically pure forms. lly active (R)— and (S)-, or (D)- and (L)—isomers may be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or ed using conventional techniques.
Isomers e compounds having the same number and kind of atoms, and hence the same molecular weight, but differing in respect to the structural arrangement or configuration of the atoms.
[0063] It will be apparent to one skilled in the art that certain compounds of this invention may exist in tautomeric forms, all such tautomeric forms of the compounds being within the scope of the invention. Tautomer refers to one of two or more structural isomers which exist in brium and which are y converted from one isomeric form to another.
Unless ise stated, structures depicted herein are also meant to include all chemical forms of the structure; i.e., the R and S configurations for each asymmetric center. Therefore, single stereochemical s as well as enantiomeric and diastereomeric mixtures of the present compounds are within the scope of the invention.
Unless otherwise stated, the compounds of the t invention may also contain unnatural proportions of atomic isotopes at one or more of the atoms that constitute such nds. For example, the nds of the present invention may be radiolabeled with radioactive isotopes, such as for example deuterium (2H), tritium (3H), iodine-125 (1251), carbon-l 3 (I3C), or carbon-l4 (14C). All isotopic variations of the compounds of the t invention, whether radioactive or not, are encompassed within the scope of the present invention.
[0066] In addition to salt forms, the present invention provides compounds, which are in a prodrug form. Prodrugs of the compounds bed herein are those compounds that readily undergo chemical changes under physiological conditions to provide the compounds of the present invention. Additionally, prodrugs can be converted to the compounds of the t invention by al or biochemical methods in an ex vivo environment. For example, prodrugs can be slowly converted to the nds of the present ion when placed in a transdermal patch reservoir with a suitable enzyme or chemical reagent.
The compounds of the present invention can be prepared by a variety of methods known in the art. For example, the compounds can be prepared as shown in Figure 1. In Figure l, the chloro—pyrimidinediones 1 (described in WOO6/014394 and incorporated herein) are coupled with a 4—phenylcyclohex-l -enyl boronate ester in the presence of a Pd catalyst to afford the cyclohexenyl pryimidinediones 2. tic hydrogenation then affords a cis/trans mixture from which the desired trans-isomer 3 can be obtained by conventional separation techniques, e. g., column chromatography.
Compounds 3 can be prepared by the stereospecific synthesis described in Figure 2.
Commercially available trans-4—(4-chlorophenyl)—cyclohexanecarboxylic acid (4) is hydrogenated in the ce of a ium on carbon catalyst in an alcohol, preferably ethanol, to afford transphenyl cyclohexanecarboxylic acid (5). The acid 5 is converted to ketoester 7 by treatment with Meldrum’s acid (6) in the presence of 4—dimethylaminopyridine and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, ed by heating in ethanol. Alkylation of the ketoester 7 can be accomplished by treatment with a base, such as NaH, and a benzyl halide 8 in a solvent such as tetrahydrofuran to afford the ated ketoester 11. Alternatively, ketoester 7 can be condensed with a benzaldehyde 9 by g in toluene in the presence of acetic acid and piperidine to afford the olefin 10. Catalytic hydrogenation of 10 provides the benzylated ketoester 11. Treatment of 11 with thiourea in ethanol in the ce of sodium ethoxide gives the 2-thioxo—2,3—dihydro—1H-pyrimidin—4—ones 12 which are subsequently converted to the subject compounds 3 by acid hydrolysis, preferably with aqueous chloroacetic acid in dioxane.
Compounds in which R2 is a heteroaryl group are similarly prepared by using a heteroaryl methyl halide or a heteroaryl aldehyde in place of the benzyl halide (8) or benzaldehyde (9) in Figure 2. nds in which R1 are alkyl or substituted alkyl groups can be prepared by treatment of 3 with a base, such as sodium hydride, and the requisite ting agent, preferably an alkyl halide or substituted alkyl halide. 2012/029376 IV. Pharmaceutical Compositions In some embodiments, the present invention es a pharmaceutical composition including a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and the compound of formula I.
The compounds of the present invention can be prepared and stered in a wide variety of oral, parenteral and topical dosage forms. Oral preparations e tablets, pills, powder, dragees, capsules, liquids, lozenges, gels, syrups, slurries, suspensions, etc., suitable for ingestion by the patient. The compounds of the present invention can also be administered by injection, that is, intravenously, intramuscularly, intracutaneously, subcutaneously, intraduodenally, or intraperitoneally. Also, the compounds described herein can be stered by inhalation, for example, intranasally. Additionally, the compounds of the present invention can be administered transdermally. The GR modulators of this invention can also be administered by in intraocular, intravaginal, and intrarectal routes ing itories, insufflation, powders and aerosol formulations (for examples of steroid nts, see Rohatagi, J. Clin. Pharmacol. 35:1187-1193, 1995; Tjwa, Ann. Allergy Asthma Immunol. 75:107-111, 1995). Accordingly, the t invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions including a pharmaceutically able carrier or excipient and either a nd of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound of Formula (I).
For preparing ceutical compositions from the compounds of the present invention, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers can be either solid or liquid. Solid form preparations include powders, tablets, pills, capsules, cachets, suppositories, and dispersible granules. A solid carrier can be one or more substances, which may also act as ts, flavoring agents, binders, preservatives, tablet disintegrating agents, or an encapsulating material. Details on techniques for formulation and administration are well described in the scientific and patent literature, see, e.g., the latest edition of Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Maack Publishing Co, Easton PA ("Remington's").
In s, the carrier is a finely divided solid, which is in a mixture with the finely divided active component. In tablets, the active component is mixed with the r having the necessary binding properties in suitable proportions and ted in the shape and size desired.
The powders and tablets preferably contain from 5% or 10% to 70% of the active compound. Suitable carriers are magnesium carbonate, magnesium stearate, talc, sugar, lactose, , dextrin, starch, gelatin, tragacanth, methylcellulose, sodium 2012/029376 carboxymethylcellulose, a low melting wax, cocoa , and the like. The term "preparation" is intended to e the formulation of the active compound with ulating material as a carrier providing a e in which the active component with or without other carriers, is surrounded by a carrier, which is thus in association with it.
Similarly, cachets and es are included. Tablets, powders, capsules, pills, cachets, and lozenges can be used as solid dosage forms le for oral administration.
Suitable solid excipients are carbohydrate or protein fillers include, but are not d to sugars, including lactose, sucrose, mannitol, or sorbitol; starch from corn, wheat, rice, potato, or other plants; cellulose such as methyl cellulose, hydroxypropylmethyl- cellulose, or sodium carboxymethylcellulose; and gums including arabic and tragacanth; as well as proteins such as gelatin and en. If desired, disintegrating or solubilizing agents may be added, such as the cross—linked polyvinyl pyrrolidone, agar, alginic acid, or a salt thereof, such as sodium alginate.
Dragee cores are provided with suitable coatings such as trated sugar solutions, which may also contain gum arabic, talc, nylpyrrolidone, carbopol gel, polyethylene glycol, and/or titanium dioxide, lacquer solutions, and suitable organic solvents or solvent mixtures. Dyestuffs or pigments may be added to the tablets or dragee coatings for product identification or to characterize the quantity of active compound (i.e., dosage).
Pharmaceutical preparations of the invention can also be used orally using, for example, t capsules made of gelatin, as well as soft, sealed capsules made of gelatin and a coating such as glycerol or sorbitol. Push—fit capsules can contain GR modulator mixed with a filler or binders such as lactose or starches, lubricants such as talc or magnesium stearate, and, optionally, stabilizers. In soft capsules, the GR tor compounds may be dissolved or suspended in suitable liquids, such as fatty oils, liquid paraffin, or liquid polyethylene glycol with or without stabilizers.
For preparing itories, a low melting wax, such as a mixture of fatty acid glycerides or cocoa butter, is first melted and the active component is dispersed homogeneously therein, as by stirring. The molten homogeneous mixture is then poured into convenient sized molds, allowed to cool, and thereby to solidify.
[0079] Liquid form preparations include solutions, suspensions, and ons, for example, water or water/propylene glycol solutions. For parenteral injection, liquid preparations can be formulated in solution in aqueous hylene glycol solution.
Aqueous solutions suitable for oral use can be prepared by dissolving the active component in water and adding suitable colorants, flavors, izers, and thickening agents as desired. Aqueous suspensions suitable for oral use can be made by dispersing the finely divided active ent in water with viscous al, such as natural or synthetic gums, resins, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, sodium alginate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, gum tragacanth and gum , and dispersing or wetting agents such as a naturally occurring phosphatide (e.g., lecithin), a condensation product of an alkylene oxide with a fatty acid (e. g., polyoxyethylene stearate), a condensation product of ethylene oxide with a long chain aliphatic alcohol (e.g., heptadecaethylene oxycetanol), a condensation product of ethylene oxide with a partial ester derived from a fatty acid and a hexitol (e.g., polyoxyethylene sorbitol mono-oleate), or a condensation product of ethylene oxide with a partial ester derived from fatty acid and a hexitol anhydride (e. g., polyoxyethylene sorbitan mono—oleate). The aqueous suspension can also contain one or more preservatives such as ethyl or n—propyl p—hydroxybenzoate, one or more coloring , one or more flavoring agents and one or more sweetening agents, such as sucrose, aspartame or saccharin. Formulations can be adjusted for osmolarity.
Also included are solid form preparations, which are intended to be converted, shortly before use, to liquid form preparations for oral administration. Such liquid forms include solutions, sions, and emulsions. These preparations may contain, in on to the active component, colorants, flavors, stabilizers, buffers, artificial and natural sweeteners, dispersants, thickeners, solubilizing agents, and the like.
Oil suspensions can be ated by suspending a GR modulator in a vegetable oil, such as arachis oil, olive oil, sesame oil or t oil, or in a mineral oil such as liquid paraffin; or a mixture of these. The oil suspensions can contain a thickening agent, such as beeswax, hard paraffin or cetyl alcohol. Sweetening agents can be added to provide a ble oral preparation, such as glycerol, sorbitol or sucrose. These formulations can be preserved by the addition of an antioxidant such as ascorbic acid. As an example of an injectable oil vehicle, see Minto, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 281:93—102, 1997. The pharmaceutical formulations of the ion can also be in the form of oil—in-water emulsions. The oily phase can be a vegetable oil or a mineral oil, described above, or a mixture of these. Suitable emulsifying agents include naturally—occurring gums, such as gum acacia and gum tragacanth, naturally ing phosphatides, such as soybean in, esters or partial esters derived from fatty acids and hexitol anhydrides, such as an mono— oleate, and sation products of these partial esters with ethylene oxide, such as yethylene sorbitan mono—oleate. The on can also contain sweetening agents and flavoring agents, as in the formulation of syrups and elixirs. Such formulations can also contain a demulcent, a preservative, or a coloring agent.
The GR tors of the invention can be delivered by ermally, by a topical route, formulated as applicator sticks, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, gels, creams, nts, pastes, jellies, paints, powders, and aerosols.
The GR modulators and compositions of the invention can also be delivered as pheres for slow release in the body. For example, microspheres can be administered via intradermal injection of drug -containing microspheres, which slowly release subcutaneously (see Rao, J. ‘er Sci. Polym. Ed. 7:623—645, 1995; as biodegradable and injectable gel formulations (see, e.g., Gao Pharm. Res. -863, 1995); or, as microspheres for oral administration (see, e.g., Eyles, J Pharm. Pharmacol. 49:669-674, 1997). Both transdermal and intradermal routes afford constant ry for weeks or months.
[0085] The GR modulator pharmaceutical ations of the invention can be provided as a salt and can be formed with many acids, including but not limited to hydrochloric, sulfuric, acetic, lactic, tartaric, malic, succinic, etc. Salts tend to be more soluble in aqueous or other protonic solvents that are the corresponding free base forms. In other cases, the preparation may be a lyophilized powder in 1 mM-5O mM histidine, 0.1%-2% sucrose, 2%-7% mannitol at a pH range of 4.5 to 5.5, that is combined with buffer prior to use In another embodiment, the GR modulator formulations of the ion can be delivered by the use of liposomes which fuse with the ar membrane or are endocytosed, i.e., by employing ligands attached to the liposome, or attached directly to the oligonucleotide, that bind to surface membrane protein receptors of the cell ing in endocytosis. By using liposomes, particularly where the liposome surface carries ligands specific for target cells, or are otherwise preferentially directed to a specific organ, one can focus the delivery of the GR modulator into the target cells in vivo. (See, e. g., Al- Muhammed, J. Microencapsul. -306, 1996; Chonn, Curr. Opin. Biotechnol. 6:698- 708, 1995; Ostro, Am. J. Hosp. Pharm. 46:1576—1587, 1989).
[0087] The pharmaceutical preparation is preferably in unit dosage form. In such form the preparation is subdivided into unit doses containing riate quantities of the active component. The unit dosage form can be a packaged preparation, the package containing discrete quantities of preparation, such as packeted tablets, capsules, and powders in vials or ampoules. Also, the unit dosage form can be a capsule, , cachet, or lozenge , or it can be the appropriate number of any of these in packaged form.
The ty of active component in a unit dose preparation may be varied or adjusted from 0.1 mg to 10000 mg, more typically 1.0 mg to 1000 mg, most typically 10 mg to 500 mg, ing to the particular ation and the potency of the active component.
The composition can, if d, also contain other compatible therapeutic agents.
The dosage regimen also takes into consideration pharmacokinetics parameters well known in the art, i.e., the rate of absorption, bioavailability, metabolism, clearance, and the like (see, e.g., Hidalgo-Aragones (1996) J. Steroid Biochem. Mol. Biol. 58:611-617; Groning (1996) Pharmazie 51:337—341; Fotherby (1996) Contraception 54:59-69; Johnson (1995) J.
Pharm. Sci. 84:1144—1146; Rohatagi (1995) Pharmazie 50:610-613; Brophy (1983) Eur. J.
Clin. Pharmacol. 24:103-108; the latest Remington's, supra). The state of the art allows the clinician to determine the dosage regimen for each individual patient, GR modulator and disease or condition treated.
[0090] Single or multiple administrations of GR modulator formulations can be administered depending on the dosage and frequency as required and tolerated by the patient.
The formulations should provide a sufficient quantity of active agent to effectively treat the disease state. Thus, in one embodiment, the pharmaceutical formulations for oral administration of GR modulator is in a daily amount of between about 0.5 to about 20 mg per kilogram of body weight per day. In an alternative embodiment, dosages are from about 1 mg to about 4 mg per kg of body weight per patient per day are used. Lower dosages can be used, ularly when the drug is administered to an anatomically secluded site, such as the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) space, in contrast to stration orally, into the blood stream, into a body cavity or into a lumen of an organ. Substantially higher dosages can be used in topical administration. Actual methods for preparing parenterally strable GR modulator formulations will be known or apparent to those skilled in the art and are described in more detail in such publications as Remington's, supra. See also Nieman, In "Receptor Mediated Antisteroid Action," Agarwal, et al., eds., De Gruyter, New York (1987).
The compounds described herein can be used in combination with one another, with other active agents known to be useful in modulating a glucocorticoid receptor, or with adjunctive agents that may not be effective alone, but may bute to the efficacy of the active agent.
In some embodiments, inistration includes administering one active agent within 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, or 24 hours ofa second active agent. Co- administration includes stering two active agents simultaneously, approximately simultaneously (e.g., within about 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, or 30 minutes of each other), or sequentially in any order. In some embodiments, co—administration can be accomplished by co-formulation, i.e., preparing a single pharmaceutical composition ing both active agents. In other ments, the active agents can be formulated separately. In another embodiment, the active and/or adjunctive agents may be linked or conjugated to one r.
After a pharmaceutical ition including a GR modulator of the invention has been formulated in an acceptable carrier, it can be placed in an appropriate ner and labeled for treatment of an indicated condition. For administration of GR modulators, such labeling would include, e. g., instructions concerning the amount, frequency and method of stration.
The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can be provided as a salt and can be formed with many acids, ing but not limited to hydrochloric, sulfuric, acetic, lactic, tartaric, malic, succinic, etc. Salts tend to be more soluble in aqueous or other protonic solvents that are the corresponding free base forms. In other cases, the preparation may be a lyophilized powder in 1 mM-50 mM histidine, 0.1%—2% sucrose, 2%—7% mannitol at a pH range of 4.5 to 5.5, that is combined with buffer prior to use.
[0095] In another embodiment, the compositions of the present invention are useful for parenteral administration, such as intravenous (IV) administration or administration into a body cavity or lumen of an organ. The formulations for administration will ly comprise a on of the compositions of the t invention dissolved in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that can be employed are water and Ringer’s solution, an isotonic sodium chloride. In addition, sterile fixed oils can tionally be ed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose any bland fixed oil can be employed including synthetic mono~ or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid can likewise be used in the preparation of injectables.
These solutions are sterile and generally free of undesirable matter. These formulations may be sterilized by conventional, well known sterilization techniques. The formulations may contain pharmaceutically acceptable ary substances as required to imate physiological conditions such as pH adjusting and buffering agents, toxicity adjusting agents, e.g., sodium acetate, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride, sodium lactate and the like. The concentration of the compositions of the present invention in these formulations can vary widely, and will be selected primarily based on fluid volumes, viscosities, body weight, and the like, in accordance with the particular mode of administration selected and the patient's needs. For IV administration, the formulation can be a sterile injectable preparation, such as a sterile inj ectable aqueous or oleaginous suspension.
This suspension can be formulated according to the known art using those suitable sing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation can also be a sterile inj ectable solution or suspension in a nontoxic parenterally—acceptable diluent or solvent, such as a solution of 1,3—butanediol.
In another embodiment, the formulations of the compositions of the present ion can be delivered by the use of liposomes which fuse with the cellular membrane or are endocytosed, i.e., by ing ligands attached to the liposome, or attached directly to the oligonucleotide, that bind to surface membrane protein receptors of the cell resulting in endocytosis. By using mes, particularly where the liposome surface carries ligands c for target cells, or are ise preferentially directed to a specific organ, one can focus the delivery of the compositions of the present invention into the target cells in vivo.

WO 29074 In an exemplary embodiment, the GR modulator is an antagonist of GR activity (also referred to herein as "a glucocorticoid receptor antagonist"). A glucocorticoid receptor antagonist, as used herein, refers to any composition or compound which partially or completely inhibits (antagonizes) the binding of a glucocorticoid receptor (GR) agonist (e.g. cortisol and synthetic or natural cortisol analog) to a GR thereby inhibiting any biological se associated with the binding of a GR to the agonist.
In a related embodiment, the GR modulator is a specific glucocorticoid receptor antagonist. As used herein, a specific glucocorticoid receptor nist refers to a composition or compound which inhibits any biological se associated with the binding of a GR to an agonist by preferentially binding to the GR rather than another r receptor (NR). In some embodiments, the specific orticoid receptor antagonist binds preferentially to GR rather than the mineralocorticoid or (MR) or progesterone receptor (PR). In an exemplary embodiment, the specific glucocorticoid receptor antagonist binds preferentially to GR rather than the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR). In another exemplary embodiment, the specific glucocorticoid receptor antagonist binds preferentially to GR rather than the progesterone receptor (PR).

VI. Assays and Methods for Modulating Glucocorticoid or Activity The compounds of the present invention can be tested for their ucocorticoid properties. s of assaying compounds capable of ting glucocorticoid receptor activity are presented . Typically, compounds of the t invention are capable of modulating glucocorticoid receptor activity by selectively binding to the GR or by preventing GR ligands from binding to the GR. In some ments, the compounds exhibit little or no cytotoxic effect.
A. g Assays In some embodiments, GR modulators are identified by screening for molecules that compete with a ligand of GR, such as dexamethasone. Those of skill in the art will recognize that there are a number of ways to perform competitive binding assays. In some embodiments, GR is pre—incubated with a labeled GR ligand and then contacted with a test compound. This type of competitive g assay may also be referred to herein as a binding displacement assay. Alteration (e.g., a decrease) of the quantity of ligand bound to GR indicates that the molecule is a potential GR modulator. Alternatively, the binding of a test compound to GR can be measured ly with a labeled test compound. This latter type of assay is called a direct binding assay.
Both direct binding assays and competitive g assays can be used in a variety of different s. The formats may be similar to those used in immunoassays and receptor binding assays. For a description of different formats for binding assays, ing competitive binding assays and direct binding assays, see Basic and Clinical Immunology 7th Edition (D. Stites and A. Terr ed.) 1991; Enzyme Immunoassay, E.T. Maggio, ed., CRC Press, Boca Raton, Florida (1980); and "Practice and Theory of Enzyme assays," P.
Tijssen, Laboratory Techniques in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Elsevier Science Publishers B.V. Amsterdam (1985), each of which is incorporated herein by reference.
In solid phase competitive binding assays, for example, the sample compound can compete with a labeled analyte for specific binding sites on a binding agent bound to a solid surface. In this type of format, the labeled e can be a GR ligand and the binding agent can be GR bound to a solid phase. atively, the labeled e can be labeled GR and the g agent can be a solid phase GR . The concentration of labeled analyte bound to the capture agent is inversely proportional to the ability of a test compound to compete in the binding assay.
Alternatively, the competitive binding assay may be conducted in liquid phase, and any of a variety of techniques known in the art may be used to separate the bound labeled n from the unbound labeled protein. For example, several procedures have been developed for distinguishing between bound ligand and excess bound ligand or between bound test compound and the excess unbound test compound. These include identification of the bound complex by sedimentation in sucrose gradients, gel electrophoresis, or gel isoelectric focusing; precipitation of the receptor—ligand complex with protamine sulfate or adsorption on hydroxylapatite; and the removal of unbound compounds or ligands by adsorption on dextran—coated charcoal (DCC) or binding to immobilized antibody. Following tion, the amount of bound ligand or test compound is determined.
Alternatively, a homogenous binding assay may be performed in which a separation step is not needed. For example, a label on the GR may be altered by the binding'of the GR 2O to its ligand or test compound. This alteration in the d GR results in a decrease or increase in the signal emitted by label, so that measurement of the label at the end of the binding assay allows for detection or quantitation of the GR in the bound state. A wide variety of labels may be used. The component may be labeled by any one of several methods. Useful radioactive labels include those incorporating 3H, 125I, 358, 14C, or 32F.
Useful non—radioactive labels include those incorporating fluorophores, chemiluminescent agents, phosphorescent agents, electrochemiluminescent agents, and the like. Fluorescent agents are especially useful in analytical techniques that are used to detect shifts in protein structure such as cence ropy and/or fluorescence polarization. The choice of label s on sensitivity required, ease of conjugation with the compound, stability ements, and available instrumentation. For a review of various labeling or signal producing s which may be used, see US. Patent No. 4,391,904, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety for all purposes. The label may be coupled directly or indirectly to the desired component of the assay ing to methods well known in the art.
High-throughput screening methods may be used to assay a large number of potential tor nds. Such "compound libraries" are then screened in one or more assays, as bed herein, to identify those library members cular chemical species or subclasses) that [display a desired characteristic activity. Preparation and screening of chemical libraries is well known to those of skill in the art. Devices for the preparation of chemical libraries are commercially available (see, e.g., 357 MPS, 390 MPS, Advanced Chem Tech, Louisville KY, Symphony, Rainin, Wobum, MA, 433A d Biosystems, Foster City, CA, 9050 Plus, Millipore, Bedford, MA).
B. Cell-Based Assays
[0111] Cell-based assays involve whole cells or cell fractions containing GR to assay for binding or modulation of activity of GR by a compound of the present invention. Exemplary cell types that can be used according to the methods of the invention include, e.g., any mammalian cells including leukocytes such as neutrophils, monocytes, hages, eosinophils, basophils, mast cells, and lymphocytes, such as T cells and B cells, leukemias, t's lymphomas, tumor cells (including mouse y tumor virus cells), endothelial cells, asts, cardiac cells, muscle cells, breast tumor cells, ovarian cancer carcinomas, al carcinomas, glioblastomas, liver cells, kidney cells, and neuronal cells, as well as fungal cells, ing yeast. Cells can be primary cells or tumor cells or other types of immortal cell lines. Of course, GR can be expressed in cells that do not express an endogenous version of GR.
In some cases, fragments of GR, as well as protein fusions, can be used for ing. When molecules that compete for binding with GR ligands are desired, the GR fragments used are fragments capable of binding the ligands (e.g., dexamethasone).
Alternatively, any fragment of GR can be used as a target to fy molecules that bind GR.
GR fragments can include any fragment of, e.g., at least 20, 30, 40, 50 amino acids up to a protein containing all but one amino acid of GR. Typically, ligand—binding fragments will comprise transmembrane regions and/or most or all of the extracellular domains of GR.
In some embodiments, signaling triggered by GR activation is used to identify GR modulators. Signaling activity of GR can be determined in many ways. For example, downstream molecular events can be red to determine signaling activity. Downstream events include those activities or manifestations that occur as a result of stimulation of a GR receptor. Exemplary downstream events useful in the onal evaluation of transcriptional activation and antagonism in unaltered cells include upregulation of a number of glucocorticoid response element (GRE)—dependent genes (PEPCK, tyrosine amino erase, aromatase). In addition, specific cell types susceptible to GR activation may be used, such as osteocalcin expression in osteoblasts which is downregulated by glucocorticoids; y hepatocytes which exhibit glucocorticoid mediated upregulation of PEPCK and e-6—phospahte (GPase)). GRE-mediated gene expression has also been demonstrated in transfected cell lines using well—known GRE—regulated sequences (e. g. the mouse mammary tumor virus promoter (MMTV) transfected upstream of a reporter gene construct). Examples of useful reporter gene constructs include luciferase (luc), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT). The functional evaluation of transcriptional repression can be carried out in cell lines such as monocytes or human skin fibroblasts. Useful functional assays include those that measure IL-lbeta stimulated IL-6 expression; the downregulation of collagenase, cyclooxygenase-2 and various ines (MCP-l , RANTES); or expression of genes regulated by NFkB or AP—l transcription factors in transfected ines.
[0114] Typically, compounds that are tested in whole—cell assays are also tested in a xicity assay. Cytotoxicity assays are used to ine the extent to which a perceived modulating effect is due to non-GR binding cellular effects. In an exemplary embodiment, the cytotoxicity assay includes contacting a constitutively active cell with the test compound.
Any decrease in cellular activity tes a cytotoxic effect.
C. Specificity The compounds of the t invention may be subject to a specificity assay (also referred to herein as a selectivity assay). Typically, specificity assays include testing a compound that binds GR in vitro or in a cell—based assay for the degree of binding to non-GR proteins. Selectivity assays may be performed in vitro or in cell based systems, as described above. GR binding may be tested t any appropriate non-GR protein, including dies, receptors, enzymes, and the like. In an exemplary embodiment, the non-GR binding n is a cell—surface or or nuclear receptor. In another exemplary embodiment, the non—GR n is a steroid receptor, such as estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, androgen receptor, or mineralocorticoid receptor.

Example 43: Glucocorticoid Receptor Binding Assay The ing is a description of an assay for determining the inhibition of dexamethasone binding of the Human Recombinant Glucocorticoid Receptor: Binding protocol: Compounds were tested in a binding displacement assay using human recombinant glucocorticoid receptor with 3H-dexamethasone as the ligand. The source of the receptor was recombinant baculovirus-infected insect cells. This GR was a full- length steroid hormone receptor likely to be associated with heat-shock and other endogenous The assay was carried out in v-bottomed 96-well polypropylene plates in a final volume of 100111 containing 0.5nM GR solution, 2.5nM 3H—dexamethasone (Perkin Elmer NETl 19200) in presence of test compounds, test compound vehicle (for total binding) or excess dexamethasone (2011M, to determine non-specific g) in an riate volume of assay buffer.
For the IC50 determinations, test compounds were tested at 6 concentrations in duplicate. Test compounds were d from lOmM stock in 100% DMSO. The tested solutions were prepared at 2x final assay concentration in 2% ssay buffer.
All reagents and the assay plate were kept on ice during the on of reagents.
The reagents were added to wells of a omed polypropylene plate in the following order: 25111 of lOnM 3H-dexamethasone solution, 50111 of TB/NSB/compound solution and 25111 of 2nM GR on. After the additions, the incubation mixture was mixed and incubated for 2.5hrs at 4°C.
After 2.5hrs incubation, unbound counts were removed with dextran coated al (DCC) as follows: 15111 of DCC solution (10% DCC in assay buffer) was added to all wells and mixed (total volume 115111). The plate was centrifuged at 4000rpm for 10 minutes at 4°C. 75111 of the supernatants was carefully pipetted into an ate. 150111 of scintillation cocktail were added (Microscint-40, Perkin Elmer). The plate was vigorously shaken for approx. 10 minutes and d on Topcount.
For the IC50 determinations, the results were calculated as % inhibition [3H]- dexamethasone bound and fitted to sigmoidal curves (fixed to 100 and 0) to obtain 1C50 values (concentration of compound that displaces 50% of the bound counts). The IC50 values were converted to K (the inhibition constant) using the Cheng—Prusoff equation. Test results are presented in Table 7.
Reagents: Assay buffer: 10mM potassium ate buffer pH 7.6 containing SmM DTT, lOmM sodium molybdate, lOOuM EDTA and 0.1% BSA.
Example 44: GR Functional Assay using SW1353/MMTV-5 cells SW1353/MMTV-5 is an adherent human osarcoma cell line that contains endogenous glucocorticoid receptors. It was transfected with a plasmid (pMAMneo-Luc) encodingfirefly luciferase located behind a glucocorticoid—responsive element (GRE) derived from a viral promoter (long terminal repeat of mouse mammary tumor virus). A stable cell line /MMTV—5 was selected with cin, which was required to maintain this plasmid. This cell line was thus sensitive to glucocorticoids (dexamethasone) leading to expression of luciferase (ECsod'ex 10nM). This dexamethasone-induced response was gradually lost over time, and a new culture from an earlier passage was started (from a cryo- stored aliquot) every three months.
In order to test for a GR—antagonist, SW1353/MMTV-5 cells were incubated with several dilutions of the compounds in the presence of d'ex (SOnM), and the inhibition of d luciferase expression was ed using luminescence detected on a Topcount (Britelite Plus kit, Perking . For each assay, a dose—response curve for dexamethasone was prepared in order to determine the ECso required for calculating the K from the IC50's of each tested compound.
SW1353/MMTV—5 cells were distributed in 96-well plates and incubated in medium (without geneticin) for 24hrs. Dilutions of the compounds in medium + SOnM dexamethasone were added and the plates further ted for another 24hrs after which the luciferase expression is measured.
