Description

BACKGROUND

Along with surgery and radiotherapy, chemotherapy continues to be an effective therapy for many cancers. In fact, several types of cancer, such as Hodgkin's disease, large cell lymphoma, acute lymphocytic leukemia, testicular cancer and early stage breast cancer, are now considered to be curable by chemotherapy. Other cancers such as ovarian cancer, small cell lung and advanced breast cancer, while not yet curable, are exhibiting positive response to combination chemotherapy.

One of the most important unsolved problems in cancer treatment is drug resistance. After selection for resistance to a single cytotoxic drug, cells may become cross resistant to a whole range of drugs with different structures and cellular targets, e.g., alkylating agents, antimetabolites, hormones, platinum-containing drugs, and natural products. This phenomenon is known as multidrug resistance (MDR). In some types of cells, this resistance is inherent, while in others, such as small cell lung cancer, it is usually acquired.

Such resistance is known to be multifactorial and is conferred by at least two proteins: the 170 kDa P-glycoprotein (MDR1) and the more recently identified 190 kDa multidrug resistance protein (MRP1). Although both MDR1 and MRP1 belong to the ATP-binding cassette superfamily of transport proteins, they are structurally very different molecules and share less than 15% amino acid homology. Despite the structural divergence between the two proteins, by 1994 there were no known consistent differences in the resistance patterns of MDR1 and MRP1 cell lines. However, the association, or lack thereof, of MRP1 and resistance to particular oncolytics is known. See Cole, et. al., “Pharmacological Characterization of Multidrug Resistant MP-transfected Human Tumor Cells”, Cancer Research, 54:5902-5910, 1994. Doxorubicin, daunorubicin, epirubicin, vincristine, paclitaxel, mitoxantrone, melphalan, and etoposide are substrates of MRP1, i.e., MRP1 can bind to these oncolytics and redistribute them away from their site of action, the nucleus, and out of the cell. Id. and Marquardt, D., and Center, M. S., Cancer Research, 52:3157, 1992.

Doxorubicin, daunorubicin, and epirubicin are members of the anthracycline class of oncolytics. They are isolates of various strains of Streptomyces and act by inhibiting nucleic acid synthesis. These agents are useful in treating neoplasms of the bone, ovaries, bladder, thyroid, and especially the breast. They are also useful in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic and myeloblastic leukemia, Wiln's tumor, neuroblastoma, soft tissue sarcoma, Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, and bronchogenic carcinoma.

Vincristine, a member of the vinca alkaloid class of oncolytics, is an isolate of a common flowering herb, the periwinkle plant ( Vinca rosea Linn). The mechanism of action of vincristine is still under investigation but has been related to the inhibition of microtubule formation in the mitotic spindle. Vincristine is useful in the treatment of acute leukemia, Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphomas, rhabdomyosarcoma, neuroblastoma, and Wilm's tumor.

Etoposide, a member of the epipodophyllotoxin class of oncolytics, is a semisynthetic derivative of podophyllotoxin. Etoposide acts as a topoisomerase inhibitor and is useful in the therapy of neoplasms of the testis, and lung.

It is presently unknown what determines whether a cell line will acquire resistance via a MDR1 or MRP1 mechanism. Due to the tissue specificity of these transporters and/or in the case where one mechanism predominates or is exclusive, it would be useful to have a selective inhibitor of that one over the other. Furthermore, when administering a drug or drugs that are substrates of either protein, it would be particularly advantageous to coadminister an agent that is a selective inhibitor of that protein. It is, therefore, desirable to provide compounds that are selective inhibitors of MDR1 or MRP1.

The present invention further relates to a method of inhibiting MRP1 in a mammal which comprises administering to a mammal in need thereof an effective amount of a compound of formula I.

In another embodiment, the present invention relates to a method of inhibiting a resistant neoplasm, or a neoplasm susceptible to resistance in a mammal which comprises administering to a mammal in need thereof an effective amount of a compound of formula I in combination with an effective amount of an oncolytic agent.

The present invention also relates to a pharmaceutical formulation comprising a compound of formula I in combination with one or more oncolytics, pharmaceutical carriers, diluents, or excipients therefor.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The current invention concerns the discovery that compounds of formula I are selective inhibitors of multidrug resistant protein (MRP1), and are thus useful in treating MRP1 conferred multidrug resistance (MDR) in a resistant neoplasm and a neoplasm susceptible to resistance. [0049]
The terms “inhibit” as it relates to MRP1 and “inhibiting MRP1” refer to prohibiting, alleviating, ameliorating, halting, restraining, slowing or reversing the progression of, or reducing MRP1's ability to redistribute an oncolytic away from the oncolytic's site of action, most often the neoplasm's nucleus, and out of the cell. Additionally, these terms refer to (repeat to redistribute) an MRP1 substrate away from the substrate's site of action. [0050]
As used herein, the term “effective amount of a compound of formula I” refers to an amount of a compound of the present invention which is capable of inhibiting MRP1. The term “effective amount of an oncolytic agent” refers to an amount of oncolytic agent capable of inhibiting a neoplasm, resistant or otherwise. [0051]
The term “inhibiting a resistant neoplasm, or a neoplasm susceptible to resistance” refers to prohibiting, halting, restraining, slowing or reversing the progression of, reducing the growth of, or killing resistant neoplasms and/or neoplasms susceptible to resistance. [0052]
The term “resistant neoplasm” refers to a neoplasm, which is resistant to chemotherapy where that resistance is conferred in part, or in total, by MRP1. Such neoplasms include, but are not limited to, neoplasms of the bladder, bone, breast, lung(small-cell), testis, and thyroid and also includes more particular types of cancer such as, but not limited to, acute lymphoblastic and myeloblastic leukemia, Wilm's tumor, neuroblastoma, soft tissue sarcoma, Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, and bronchogenic carcinoma. [0053]
A neoplasm, which is “susceptible to resistance”, is a neoplasm where resistance is not inherent nor currently present but can be conferred by MRP1 after chemotherapy begins. Thus, the methods of this invention encompass a prophylactic and therapeutic administration of a compound of formula I. [0054]
The term “chemotherapy” refers to the use of one or more oncolytic agents where at least one oncolytic agent is a substrate of MRP1. A “substrate of MRP1” is an oncolytic that binds to MRP1 and is redistributed away from the oncolytic's site of action (the nucleus of the neoplasm) and out of the cell, thus, rendering the therapy less effective. Preferred oncolytic agents are camptosar, vinorelbine, mitoxantrone, doxorubicin, daunorubicin, epirubicin, vincristine, and etopsoside. [0055]
The terms “treat” or “treating” bear their usual meaning which includes preventing, prohibiting, alleviating, ameliorating, halting, restraining, slowing or reversing the progression, or reducing the severity of MRP1 derived drug resistance in a multidrug resistant tumor. [0056]

The term “amino acid ester” as used in this specification refers to an amino acid, where the carboxy group is substituted with a C[0079] ₁-C₆alkyl or benzyl group. That is, the alkyl group when taken together with the carboxy group forms a C₁-C₆alkyl ester. A skilled artisan would appreciate that some amino acids have two carboxy groups that may be substituted with a C₁-C₆alkyl group, for example, aspartic acid and glutamic acid.
This invention contemplates the possibility of amino acid mono- or diesters in these circumstances. [0080]
The term “amino acid” refers to a chemical unit made up of both a basic amino group and an acidic carboxyl group. Examples of amino acids include alanine, asparagine, cysteine, glutamine, glycine, isoleucine, leucine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine, valine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, arginine, histidine, and lysine. [0081]
The term “protecting group” (Pg) refers to an amino protecting group or a hydroxy protecting group. The species of protecting group will be evident from whether the “Pg” group is attached to a nitrogen atom (amino protecting group) or attached to an oxygen atom (hydroxy protecting group). [0082]
The term “amino protecting group” as used in this specification refers to a substituent(s) of the amino group commonly employed to block or protect the amino functionality while reacting other functional groups on the compound. Examples of such amino-protecting groups include the formyl group, the trityl group, the phthalimido group, the acetyl group, the trichloroacetyl group, the chloroacetyl, bromoacetyl, and iodoacetyl groups, urethane-type blocking groups such as benzyloxycarbonyl, 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (“BLOC”), and the like; and like amino protecting groups. The species of amino protecting group employed is not critical so long as the derivitized amino group is stable to the condition of subsequent reaction(s) on other positions of the molecule and can be removed at the appropriate point without disrupting the remainder of the molecule. Similar amino protecting groups used in the cephalosporin, penicillin, and peptide arts are also embraced by the above terms. Further examples of groups referred to by the above terms are described by T. W. Greene, “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, John Wiley and Sons, New York, N.Y., 1991, Chapter 7 hereafter refereed to as “[0083] Greene”. A preferred amino protecting group is t-butyloxycarbonyl.
The term “hydroxy protecting group” denotes a group understood by one skilled in the organic chemical arts of the type described in Chapter 2 of [0084] Greene. Representative hydroxy protecting groups include, for example, ether groups including methyl and substituted methyl ether groups such as methyl ether, methoxymethyl ether, methylthiomethyl ether, tert-buylthiomethyl ether, (phenyldimethylsilyl)methoxy-methyl ether, benzyloxymethyl ether, p-methoxybenzyloxy-methyl ether, and tert-butoxymethyl ether, substituted ethyl ether groups such as ethoxyethyl ether, 12-chloroethoxy)-ethyl ether, 2,2,2-trichloroetboxymethyl ether, and 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl ether, isopropyl ether groups; phenyl and substituted phenyl ether groups such as phenyl ether, p-chlorophenyl ether, p-methoxyphenyl ether, and 2,4-dinitrophenyl ether; benzyl and substituted benzyl ether groups such as benzyl ether, p-methoxybenzyl ether, onitrobenzyl ether, and 2,6-dichlorobenzyl ether, and alkylsilyl ether groups such as trimethyl-triethyl- and triisopropylsilyl ethers, mixed alkylsilyl ether groups such as dimethylisopropylsilyl ether, and diethylisopropylsilyl ether; and ester protecting groups such as formate ester, enzylformate ester, mono-, di-, and trichloroacetate esters, phenoxyacetate ester, and p-chlorophenoxyacetate and the like. The species of hydroxy protecting group employed is not critical so long as the derivatized hydroxy group is stable to the conditions of subsequent reaction(s) on other positions of the intermediate molecule and can be selectively removed at the appropriate point without disrupting the remainder of the molecule including any other hydroxy protecting group(s).
The term “carbonyl activating group” refers to a substituent of a carbonyl that increases the susceptibility-of-that carbonyl to nucleophilic-addition. Such groups include, but are not limited to, alkoxy, aryloxy, nitrogen containing unsaturated heterocycles, or amino groups such as oxybenzotriazole, imidazolyl, nitrophenoxy, pentachloro-phenoxy, N-oxysuccinimide, N,N′-dicyclohexylisoure-O-yl, N-hydroxy-N-methoxyamino, and the like; acetates, formates, sulfonates such as methanesulfonate, ethanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, or p-toluenylsulfonate, and the like; and halides especially chloride, bromide, or iodide. [0085]
The term “carbonyl activating reagent” refers to a reagent that converts the carbonyl of a carboxylic acid group to one that is more prone to nucleophilic addition and includes, but is not limited to, such reagents as those found in “The Peptides”, Gross and Meienhofer, Eds., Academic Press (1979), Ch. 2 and M. Bodanszky, “Principles of Peptide Synthesis”, 2[0086] ^ndEd., Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1993, hereafter referred to as “The Peptides” and “Peptide Synthesis” respectively. Specifically, carbonyl activating reagents include thionyl bromide, thionyl chloride, oxalyl chloride, and the like; alcohols such as nitrophenol, pentachlorophenol, and the like; amines such as N-hydroxy-N-methoxyamine and the like; acid halides such as acetic, formic, methanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, or p-tolylsulfonic acid halide, and the like; and compounds such as 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole, benzotriazole, imidazole, N-hydroxysuccinimide, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and the like.
In general, the term “pharmaceutical” when used as an adjective means substantially non-toxic to living organisms. For example, the term “pharmaceutical salt” as used herein, refers to salts of the compounds of formula I which are substantially non-toxic to living organisms. See, e.g., Berge, S. M, Bighley, L. D., and Monkhouse, D. C., “Pharmaceutical Salts”, [0087] J. Pharm Sci., 66:1, 1977. Typical pharmaceutical salts include those salts prepared by reaction of the compounds of formula I with an inorganic or organic acid or base. Such salts are known as acid addition or base addition salts, respectively. These pharmaceutical salts frequently have enhanced solubility characteristics compared to the compound from which they are derived, and thus are often more amenable to formulation as liquids or emulsions.
The term “acid addition salt” refers to a salt of a compound of formula I prepared by reaction of a compound of formula I with a mineral or organic acid. For exemplification of pharmaceutical acid addition salts see, e.g., Berge, S. M, Bighley, L. D., and Monkhouse, D. C., J. Pharm. Sci., 66:1, 1977. Since compounds of this invention can be basic in nature, they accordingly react with any of a number of inorganic and organic acids to form pharmaceutical acid addition salts. [0088]
The pharmaceutical acid addition salts of the invention are typically formed by reacting the compound of formula I with an equimolar or excess amount of acid. The reactants are generally combined in a mutual solvent such as diethylether, tetrahydrofuran, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, benzene, and the like. The salts normally precipitate out of solution within about one hour to about ten days and can be isolated by filtration or other conventional methods. [0089]
Acids commonly employed to form acid addition salts are inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydroiodic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, and the like, and organic acids, such as p-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, oxalic acid, p-bromophenylsulfonic acid, carbonic acid, succinic acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, acetic acid and the like. Examples of such pharmaceutically acceptable salts thus are the sulfate, pyrosulfate, bisulfate, sulfite, bisulfite, phosphate, monohydrogenphosphate, dihydrogenphosphate, metaphosphate, pyrophosphate, chloride, bromide, iodide, acetate, propionate, decanoate, caprylate, acrylate, formate, isobutyrate, caproate, heptanoate, propiolate, oxalate, malonate, succinate, suberate, sebacate, fumarate, maleate, butyne-1,4-dioate, hexyne-1,6-dioate, benzoate, chlorobenzoate, methylbenzoate, dinitrobenzoate, hydroxybenzoate, methoxybenzoate, phthalate, sulfonate, xylenesulfonate, phenylacetate, phenylpropionate, phenylbutyrate, citrate, lactate, P-hydroxybutyrate, glycolate, tartrate, methanesulfonate, propanesulfonate, 1,5-naphthalenedisulfonate, naphthalene-1-sulfonate, naphthalene-2-sulfonate, mandelate and the like. [0090]
The term “base addition salt” refers to a salt of a compound of formula I prepared by reaction of a compound of formula I with a mineral or organic base. For exemplification of pharmaceutical base addition salts see, e.g., Berge, S. M, Bighley, L. D., and Monkhouse, D. C., [0091] J. Pharm. Sci., 66:1, 1977. This invention also contemplates pharmaceutical base addition salts of compounds of formula I The skilled artisan would appreciate that some compounds of formula I may be acidic in nature and accordingly react with any of a number of inorganic and organic bases to form pharmaceutical base addition salts. Examples of pharmaceutical base addition salts are the ammonium, lithium, potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, methylamino, diethylamino, ethylene diamino, cyclohexylamino, and ethanolamino salts, and the like of a compound of formula I.

The compounds of the present invention can be prepared by a variety of procedures, some of which are illustrated in the Schemes below. The particular order of steps required to produce the compounds of formula I is dependent upon the particular compound being synthesized, the starting compound, and the relative lability of the substituted moieties. [0335]
Compounds of formula I(a), wherein R[0336] ^b, the substituent attached to the non-fused carbon, is C₁-C₆alkyl, optionally substituted aryl, optionally substituted heterocycle, CH₂OH, or CH₂O-heterocycle may be prepared from compounds of formula II(a) as illustrated in Scheme 1 below where Y, A, R¹⁰, het, n, and p are as described supra.
Compounds of formula I(a) may be prepared by dissolving or suspending a compound of formula II(a) in a suitable solvent, preferably dimethylformamide, and adding a suitable base, including potassium methoxide, potassium tert-butoxide, potassium carbonate, sodium hexamethyldisilazane, and preferably potassium hexamethyldisilazane. The base is typically employed in a one to one ratio. However, as the skilled artisan would appreciate, a slight molar excess, usually in about a 1.1 to about a 3 fold molar excess relative to the compound of formula II(a), is acceptable. [0337]
The reactants are typically combined at a temperature from about 0° C. to about 100° C. When het is isoxazole, oxazole, or imidazole, the reactants are preferably combined at room temperature and the resulting solution is typically mixed for from about 5 minutes to about 18 hours, preferably from about 15 minutes to about 3 hours. When het is pyrazole the reactants are preferably combined at room temperature and the resulting solution is typically heated to about 100° C. for about 30 minutes to about 18 hours. [0338]
It is preferred, when A is cyclopentyl and the base employed is potassium hexamethyldisilazane, to combine the reactants from about 60° C. to about 100° C. for about 3 to about 6 minutes. [0339]
Any protecting groups remaining in the cyclized compound of formula I may be removed as taught in Greene to provide additional compounds of formula I. Preferred choices of protecting groups and methods for their removal may be found in the Preparations and Examples sections below. [0340]
Compounds of formula I(b), wherein bet is substituted with halo may be prepared from compounds of formula II(b) as illustrated in Scheme 2 below where Y, A, R[0341] ¹⁰, het, n, and p are as described supra.
Compounds of formula I(b) may be prepared by dissolving or suspending a compound of formula II(b) in a suitable solvent and adding a suitable base, in an inert atmosphere, preferably under N[0342] ₂. Typically a preferred and convenient solvent is dimethylformamide. A preferred base is sodium trimethylsilanolate. The base is typically employed in a slight molar excess, usually in about a 1.05 fold molar excess relative to the compound of formula II(b). The reactants are typically combined dropwise at room temperature over a period of time from about 2 hours to about 4 hours.
The skilled artisan would appreciate that if other bases are used in the reaction of Scheme 2, the substituent of the het functionality may change. For example if sodium methylthiolate is used as the preferred base, the compound of formula II(b) will be converted into the compound of formula I wherein the het functionality is substituted with SCH[0343] ₃.
Additionally, the compound of formula I(b) can be prepared according to Scheme 1 wherein the reactants are combined at about 0° C. and mixed at about −10° C. for approximately three hours. The solution is then warmed to room temperature and mixed for an additional 2 to 3 hours. [0344]
Certain compounds of formula I(c) are useful MRP1 inhibitors and are also useful intermediates for the preparation of other compounds of formula 1. As is shown in Scheme 3, when R[0345] ^bis CH₂O-Pg, a derivative of formula I(c) wherein Pg is a protecting group, the compound of formula I(c) may be further reacted by methods known in the art to produce compounds of formula I(d) where R^b′ is CH₂OH, CH₂N₃, CH₂SR¹, or CH₂NR⁴R⁶, and Y, A, het, p, n, R¹, R⁴, R⁶, and R¹⁰are as described supra.
Compounds of formula I(d) wherein het is substituted with CH[0346] ₂OH may be prepared by dissolving or suspending a compound of formula I(c) in a suitable solvent and adding a suitable acid. Typically a preferred and convenient solvent is methanol/dichloromethane (2:1). A preferred acid is p-toluenesulfonic acid hydrate. The acid is typically employed in a slight molar excess, usually in about a 1.05 fold molar excess relative to the compound of formula I(c). The reactants are typically combined at room temperature and mixed from about 1 hour to about 3 hours.
The skilled artisan would appreciate that the alcohol can be further converted to compounds of formula I(d) where het is substituted with CH[0347] ₂N₃, CH₂SR¹³, or CH₂NR⁴R⁶by methods well known in the art. For general examples of these procedures, see the Preparations and Example section.
Compounds of formula I(e) when het is substituted with chloro are useful MRP1 f inhibitors and are also useful intermediates for the preparation of other compounds of formula I. As is shown in Scheme 4, the compound of formula I(e) may be further reacted with a nucleophile by methods known in the art to produce compounds of formula I(q) where het is substituted with an amino acid ester, OR[0348] ¹, SR¹³, S(CH₂)_k-phenyl, NR⁴R⁶, or an optionally substituted heterocycle attached via a heteroatom, and Y, A, p, n, k, het, R¹, R⁴, R⁶, R¹⁰, and R¹³are as described supra.
Compounds of formula I(q) may be prepared by dissolving or suspending a compound of formula I(e) in a suitable solvent and adding an appropriate nucleophile, in an inert atmosphere, preferably under N[0349] ₂. Typically a preferred and convenient solvent is dimethylformamide. The nucleophile is typically employed in a molar excess, usually in about a 2 to about a 4 fold molar excess relative to the compound of formula I(e).
The reactants are preferably combined at room temperature and the resulting solution is typically mixed for about 30 minutes to about 3 hours, until the reaction is complete as measured by the consumption of the substrate. The skilled artisan would appreciate that the reaction, depending on the nucleophile used, may require more time to react and may, also require heating. In these instances, it is preferred to mix the reactants for approximately 15 to approximately 20 hours, then heat the solution from about 50° C. to about 80° C. and mix for an additional 3 hours or until the reaction is complete as measured by the consumption of the compound of formula I(e). [0350]
Compounds of formula I(p) where Y is C(R[0351] ^11′)(R¹¹)NR⁴R⁵may be prepared from compounds of formula I(n) as illustrated in Scheme 5 below where R³and R¹¹are equivalent, R^11′ is H, and het, n, p, A, R⁴, R⁵, and R¹⁰are as described supra.
The compounds of formula I(n) may be reductively aminated to form the compounds of formula I(p). Reductive aminations are well known transformations, see, e.g., Larock, “Comprehensive Organic Transformations”, pg. 421, VCH Publishers, New York, N.Y., 1989, hereafter referred to as “[0352] Larock”.
Amines of formula III may be dissolved or suspended in a suitable solvent, preferably methanol, optionally in the presence of a suitable base, preferably N-methyl morpholine or triethylamine. When the compound of formula III is an acid addition salt, it is preferred to convert the salt to its free amine form. A compound of formula I(n) is then added to the mixture. Optionally, a Lewis acid catalyst, such as titanium(IV) isopropoxide, may be employed. Once the compound of formula I(n) has been substantially consumed, the intermediate is typically reacted in situ with a suitable reducing agent to provide the compounds of formula I(p). The overall conversion may be performed at about 0° C. to the boiling point of the mixture, but room temperature is a preferred reaction temperature. The formation of the compounds of formula I(p) may take from 15 minutes to 24 hours as measure by the consumption of the substrate. [0353]
Suitable reducing agents include, but are not limited to, hydrogen over palladium or platinum on carbon, borane or complexes of borane, e.g., borane-pyridine, borane-t-butylamine, and borane-dimethylamine complex; and borohydride reducing agents such as sodium borohydride or sodium cyanoborohydride. Sodium cyanoborohydride is a preferred reducing agent. [0354]
Compounds of formula I(r) may be prepared from compounds of formula I(n) as illustrated below where p, n, R[0355] ³, R⁷, and R¹⁰are as described supra.
The compounds of formula I(n) may be converted to compounds of formula I(r). Such reactions are well known transformations, see, e.g., Larock, “Comprehensive Organic Transformations”, pg. 421, VCH Publishers, New York, N.Y., 1989, hereafter referred to as “[0356] Larock”.
The compound of formula I(n) may be may be reduced to the corresponding alcohol, activated (i.e. mesylation), reacted with an appropriate azide, reduced, and then acylated. Additionally, the Curtius rearrangement may be employed to give the compound of formula I(r). See the preparation/Example section for specifics. [0357]
The Curtius rearrangement is performed by converting the activated compound, in an appropriate solvent, with an appropriate azide, then an appropriate alcohol, to provide a compound of formula I(r). As the skilled artisan would appreciate, the activated compound, dissolved in an appropriate solvent, is first treated with an appropriate azide and optionally a catalyst to provide the intermediate. The intermediate is treated with an appropriate alcohol to obtain the compound of formula I(r). Once the reaction is complete, as measured by the consumption of the substrate, the resulting compound of formula I(r) may be isolated by standard extractions and filtrations. If desired, the resulting compound of formula I(r) may be further purified by chromatography or crystallization as appropriate. [0358]
Appropriate solvents must be capable of dissolving a sufficient amount of the activated compound and the azide for the reaction to proceed. Useful organic solvents include hexamethylphosphoramide, dimethylformamide, and preferably toluene. [0359]
The skilled artisan would appreciate that the Curtius rearrangement may be preformed via a number of azides and that reaction conditions may vary depending upon the azide used. For example if sodium azide, potassium azide, and the like are used the compound must first be converted to the activated acid with an appropriate activating agent, such as ethyl chloroformate or sulfuric acid. The substrate may need to be pretreated with the activating agent, such as the case with ethyl chloroformate, or may need to be added simultaneously. The skilled artisan would appreciate the potential for reaction at an ester site of the substrate, if the molecule is treated with the azide first as is the case in these circumstances. [0360]
Preferably, diphenylphosphoryl azide is used in the process of the present invention without an activating agent. [0361]
Appropriate alcohols are lower alkyl alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol, benzyl, t-butanol, TMS-ethanol, and the like. [0362]
The reaction may be carried out over a large range of concentrations, from about 0.001 molar to about 2.0 molar of the azide, dependent upon the solubility of the particular azide in the chosen solvent. The reaction may also be performed on slurries of the azide so long as a sufficient amount of the azide is soluble in the solvent for the reaction to proceed. Preferably the process is performed at a concentration from about 0.1 molar to about 1.0 molar. A concentration of about 0.3 to about 0.4 molar is most preferred. [0363]
Reactions may be performed between about 80° C. and about 130° C., preferably between about 100° C. and about 120° C. Most preferably the reactants are combined at temperature of about 20° C. to about 30° C., then heated to about 80° C. and about 120° C., the azide is then added, and the reactants are stirred for about 0.5 to about 1.5 hours at reflux. An appropriate alcohol is then added and heated to about 70° C. to about 90° C. for about 3 to about 24 hours, preferably from about 75° C. to about 85° C. for about 8 to about 12 hours. [0364]
Compounds of formula I where Y is C(R[0365] ¹¹)(R¹¹)NR⁴R⁵or OR², R²is (CH₂)₂NR⁴R⁵, and R⁵is C₁-C₆alkyl, optionally substituted (C₁-C₄alkyl)-aryl, optionally substituted (C₁-C₄alkyl)-heterocycle, or COR⁷, may be prepared from compounds of formula I(f) and I(h) as illustrated in Scheme 6 below where X is halide and het, n, p, R¹¹, R⁴, R¹⁰, and R¹²are as described supra.
The compounds of formulas I(f) and 1(h) may be reductively alkylated to form the corresponding compounds of formulas I(g) and I(i), respectively. Reductive alkylation of primary amines are well known transformations, see, e.g., [0366] Larock, pg. 434435.
Once it is determined that the compound of formula IV has been substantially consumed, the intermediate is typically reacted in situ with a suitable reducing agent to provide the compounds of formula I(g) and I(i), respectively. The overall conversion may be performed at about 0° C. to the boiling point of the mixture but room temperature is a preferred reaction temperature. The formation of the compounds of formulas I(g) and I(i) may take from 15 minutes to 24 hours as measured by the consumption of the substrate. [0367]
A base is typically employed when the compound of formula I(f) or I(h) is an acid addition salt in order to convert the salt to its free amine form. Preferred bases for this purpose are N-methylmorpholine and triethylamine. A preferred Lewis acid catalyst is titanium(IV) isopropoxide. Suitable reducing agents include, but are not limited to, borane or complexes of borane, e.g., borane-pyridine, borane-t-butylamine, and borane-dimethylamine complex; and lithium aluminum hydride. [0368]
Compounds of formulas I(f) and I(h) may be converted to other compounds of the invention by methods well known in the chemical arts. Additional compounds of formula I may be prepared as follows, where Y is -E-NR[0369] ⁴R⁵or -E-OR², R²is (CH₂)₂NR⁴R⁵, R⁵is COR⁷, and R⁷is NR⁴R^6′ or R⁵is a moiety of the formula
R[0370] ³⁰is R^6′ or R⁸; and het, n, p, A, R⁴, R^6′, R⁸, R¹⁰, and R¹¹are as described supra.
The primary amines of formulas I(h) and I(f) may be reacted, by methods well known in the art, with the isocyanates or isothiocyantes of formula VII to prepare the corresponding ureas and thioureas of formulas I(k) and I(o), see, generally, [0371] March, pages 802-803.
Compounds of formula I where Y is C(R[0372] ¹¹)(R¹¹)NR⁴R⁵, and R⁵is SO₂R⁸can be prepared as described in Scheme 8, wherein het, n, p, A, R¹¹, R⁴, R⁸, and R¹⁰are as described supra.
Compounds of formula I(f) may be converted to other compounds of the invention via standard combinatorial synthetic techniques. For example, a compound of formula I(f) dissolved or suspended in a suitable solvent, optionally in the presence of a base, may be treated with a compound of formula VI to provide a compound of formula I(o) where R[0373] ⁵is SO₂R⁸. Typically a preferred and convenient solvent is dichloromethane. When a base is employed, triethylamine is typically preferred. Furthermore, when a base is employed, the base and compound of formula VI are typically employed in a slight stoichiometric excess. For example a 1.01 to 1.40 molar excess, relative to the compound of formula I(f), is generally employed. About 1.15 to about 1.25 fold molar excess is typically preferred. When a base is not employed, the compound of formula VI is typically employed in a relatively larger stoichiometric excess. For example, about a 1.5 to about a 3 molar excess, relative to the compound of formula I(f), is usually employed. About 1.8 to about 2.2 fold molar excess is typically preferred. The reaction is usually performed at a temperature range of about 0° C. to about the reflux temperature of the solvent for from 10 minutes to 18 hours. Preferably, the reaction is performed at about 15° C. to about 40° C. for from 5 minutes to about 1 hour.
Compounds of formula I where Y is C(O)R[0374] ³and R³is OR¹³or NR⁴R⁶may be prepared from compounds of formula I(l) as illustrated in Scheme 9 below wherein R³¹is NR⁴R⁶or OR¹³; and het, n, p, A, R⁴, R⁶, and R¹³are as described supra
Compounds of formula I(l), prepared as described in Scheme 1, may also be converted to other compounds of the invention via solution or solid phase synthetic techniques. For example, acids of formula I(l) may be treated with activating agents to form the activated carboxylic acid derivatives of formula I(l) by methods well known in the chemical arts. See, e.g., [0375] The Peptides, Peptide Synthesis and the Examples and Preparations sections below.
Generally, preparation of compounds of formula I(m) where R[0376] ³¹is NR⁴R⁶is performed in a manner similar to the reaction of compounds of formula I(f) or I(h) described in Scheme 6. Specifically, such compounds of formula I(m) may be prepared by dissolving or suspending a compound of the activated carboxylic acid derivatives of formula I(l) in a suitable solvent, optionally in the presence of a suitable base, and adding an amine of formula III. Typically a preferred and convenient solvent is dichloromethane. Preferred bases are triethylamine and piperidinylmethylpolystyrene resin. The amine is typically employed in a molar excess. For example, about a 1.5 to about a 3 molar excess, relative to the compound of the activated carboxylic acid derivatives of formula I(l) is usually employed.

A compound from preparation 87 (845 mg; 2.81 mmol) was dissolved in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (30 mL) under a dry nitrogen atmosphere. A 1 M solution of DIBAL-H in toluene (6.2 mL; 6.18 mmol; 2.2 equiv) was added dropwise to the −78° C. starting material solution over 5 min. After an additional 15 min of stirring, water quenched the cold reaction solution. Extraction with ethyl acetate produced an emulsion that was destroyed by concentration of the solution to near dryness. The resulting material was dissolved in water/diethyl ether and extracted with diethyl ether without further complication. The organic layer was washed with saturated NaCl(aq) (once), dried with Na[0514] ₂SO_4(s), filtered, and concentrated to dryness by rotary evaporation. The product was purified by radial chromatography on a 4 mm thick silica gel rotor with 300 mL of 1% tetrahydrofuran/dichloromethane (v/v) mobile phase followed by 300 mL of 10% tetrahydrofuran/dichloromethane (v/v) mobile phase.

Preparation 405

5-(2-Chloro-6-fluoro-phenyl)-3-methyl-3H-imidazole-4-carboxylic acid

To a solution of 95 mg (0.336 mmol) of a compound from preparation 403. in 5 mL methanol was added 5 mL of 1N sodium hydroxide solution. The reaction was stirred at rt. for 18 hours. The pH of the reaction was adjusted to pH ˜1 with 1N HCl and this material was concentrated in vacuo by adding 100 mL of toluene to aid in the azeotropic removal of water. The subsequent white solid, which contained the free acid. The crude title compound was used without further purification. [0833]
General Procedures, Unless Otherwise Specified: [0834]
a) For Condensation of a Primary Amine with a Carboxylic Acid [0835]
To “Starting Material A,” the primary amine of interest (1 eq.), in anhydrous DMF at 0° C. was added “Starting Material B,” the carboxylic acid (3 eq.), collidine (3 eq.) and BOP (3 eq.). The cold bath was removed and after 2 h. The reaction was diluted with EtOAc (25 mL) and saturated NaHCO[0836] ₃(25 mL). The organic layer was washed with distilled H₂O (2×25 mL), dried over Na₂SO₄, and chromatographed on silica gel.
b) For Acylation of Primary Amines [0837]
To a solution of “Starting Material A,” the primary amine (1 eq.), in dichloromethane was added “Starting Material B,” the acylating reagent (1 eq.), triethylamine (1 eq.), and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (10% mol.eq.). The mixture was stirred overnight at ambient temperature and chloroform was added. The solution was washed with 1N hydrochloric acid, saturated sodium bicarbonate, then brine; dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was chromatographed on silica gel to afford the desired compound. [0838]
c) For Coupling of Primary Amines and Carboxylic Acids, Using 1-(3-(dimethylamino)-propyl)3-ethylcarbodiimide HCl (EDC) [0839]
To a solution of “Starting Material A,” the carboxylic acid (1 eq.), in N,N-dimethylformamide was added “Starting Material B,” the primary amine (1 eq.), along with EDC (1 eq.), 1-hydroxy-7-azabenzotriazole (1 eq.), 4-dimethylaminopyridine (10% mol. eq.), and triethylamine (1 eq.). The mixture was stirred overnight at ambient temperature and concentrated to dryness. The residue was partitioned between 20% isopropanol/chloroform and 1N hydrochloric acid. The mixture was washed with 1N hydrochloric acid, saturated sodium bicarbonate, brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to dryness. The residue was chromatographed on silica gel. [0840]
d) For Cyclization of 2-((1R,3S)-3-{[3-(2-chloro-6-fluorophenyl)-5-methylisoxazol-4-yl]carbonylamino}cycloalkyl Compounds Using Potassium t-butoxide (KOtBu) [0841]
A solution of “Starting Material” (1 eq.) and 1 eq. of 1.0 N (in THF) KOtBu in DMF was stirred for 3 hours. The reaction was diluted with ethyl acetate and washed 5 times with water; dried and concentrated in vacuo to a residue, which was chromatographed on silica gel. [0842]
e) For Cyclization of 2-(3-{[3-(2-chloro-6-fluorophenyl)-5-methylisoxazol-4-yl]-carbonylamino}cycloalkyl Compounds Using Potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (KHMDS) [0843]
A solution of “Starting Material” (1 eq.) dissolved in dry DMF was stirred and cooled to 0° C. in an ice bath. The reaction was then treated with KHMDS (1.5 eq., 0.5M in THF) and was allowed to warm to room temperature. After 30 minutes the reaction was diluted in EtOAc, transferred to a separatory funnel, and washed consecutively with 1N HCl, saturated sodium bicarbonate, brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue was chromatographed on silica gel to afford the desired compound. [0844]
f) For Arylation of a Primary Amine [0845]
To a stirred solution of “Starting Material A,” the primary amine (1 eq.), in DMF was added K[0846] ₂CO₃(2 eq.) and “Starting Material B,” the arylhalide (3 eq.). The reaction mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 8 hours. It was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed (brine), dried (Na₂SO₄), filtered and concentrated. Column chromatography on silica gel for purification was preformed.
g) Enantiomeric Separation of the 1R,3S and 1S,3R Isomer Configuration of the Cycloalkyl Examples [0847]

The racemic material was separated into its enantiomers by chiral HPLC, using a Chiralpak AD column and 30% isopropyl alcohol-heptane as the eluent at a flow of 1.0 mL/min.

The compounds of the invention are inhibitors of MRP1. Thus, the compounds of the invention may be used to inhibit any neoplasm having intrinsic and/or acquired resistance, conferred in part or in total by MRP1, to an oncolytic or oncolytics. In other words, treatment of such a neoplasm with an effective amount of a compound of this invention will cause the neoplasm to be more sensitive to chemotherapy that was rendered less efficacious by MRP1. [1068]
Camptosar, melphalan, paclitaxel, vinorelbine, mitoxantrone, doxorubicin, daunorubicin, epirubicin, vincristine, and etopsoside are oncolytics that are substrates of MRP1. See Cole, et. al., “Pharmacological Characterization of Multidrug Resistant MRP-transfected Human Tumor Cells”, [1069] Cancer Research, 54:5902-5910, 1994. Since MRP1 is ubiquitous in mammals, particularly humans, Nooter, K, et. al., “Expression of the Multidrug Resistance-Associated Protein (MRP) Gene in Human Cancers”, Clin. Can. Res., 1:1301-1310, (1995), chemotherapy whose goal is to inhibit a neoplasm employing any of those agents has the potential to be rendered less efficacious by MRP1. Thus, neoplasms of the bladder, bone, breast, lung(small-cell), testis, and thyroid and more specific types of cancer such as acute lymphoblastic and myeloblastic leukemia, Wilm's tumor, neuroblastoma, soft tissue sarcoma, Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, and bronchogenic carcinoma may be inhibited with a combination of one or more of the above oncolytics and a compound of this invention.
The biological activity of the compounds of the present invention was evaluated employing an initial screening assay which rapidly and accurately measured the activity of the tested compound in inhibiting MRP1 or MDR1. Assays useful for evaluating this reversing capability are well known in the art See, e.g., T. McGrath, et al., [1070] Biochemical Pharmacology, 38:3611, 1989; D. Marquardt and M.S. Center, Cancer Research, 52:3157, 1992; D. Marquardt, et al., Cancer Research, 50:1426, 1990; and Cole, et. al., Cancer Research, 54: 5902-5910, 1994.
Assay for Reversal of MRP1-Mediated Doxorubicin Resistance and MDR1-Mediated Vincristine Resistance: HL60/Adr and HL60/Vinc are continuous cell lines, which were selected for doxorubicin and vincristine resistance respectively by culturing HL60, a human acute myeloblastic leukemia cell line, in increasing concentrations of doxorubicin or vincristine until a highly resistant variant was attained. [1071]
HL60/Adr and HL60/Vinc cells were grown in RPMI 1640 (Gibco) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 50 μg/ml GENTAMICIN™ (Sigma). Cells were harvested; washed twice with assay medium (same as culture media); counted; and diluted to 1×10[1072] ⁵cells/ml in assay medium. One hundred microliters of cells were aliquoted into wells of a 96 well tissue culture plate. Two columns of each 96 well plate served as a negative control and received assay medium containing no cells.
Test compounds and reference compounds were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at a concentration of 5 mM. Samples were diluted in assay medium and 25 μl of each test compound was added to 8 wells. Assay standards were run in quadruplicate. Assay media was added to half of the wells and doxorubicin to the other half of the wells to achieve a final volume of 150 μl per well. [1073]
The plates were incubated at 37° C. for 72 hours in a humidified incubator with a 5% carbon dioxide atmosphere. Cell viability and vitality was measured by oxidation of a alamarBlue™ fluorescent dye using standard conditions. The plates were incubated for 3 hours at 37° C. Fluorescence was determined using 550 nm excitation and 590 nm emission using a microtitre plate reader. [1074]
The ability of a test compound to reverse the resistance of HL60/Adr and HL60/Vinc cells to doxorubicin was determined by comparison of the absorbance of the wells containing a test compound in addition to the oncolytic (doxorubicin) with the absorbance of wells containing the oncolytic without a test compound. Controls were used to eliminate background and to ensure the results were not artifactual. The results of the assay are expressed as percent inhibition of cell growth. The oncolytic alone at the tested concentration minimally inhibits the growth of HL60/Adr or HL60/Vinc cells. [1075]
Representative compounds of formula I demonstrated a significant effect in reversing the MRP1 multiple drug resistance. Many of the compounds showed very significant enhancement of activity in combination with the oncolytic agent as opposed to the oncolytic agent alone. In addition, a large majority of the compounds tested displayed a significant degree of selective inhibition of the HL0/Adr cell line over the HL60/Vinc cell line. [1076]
When administering an oncolytic in practicing the methods of this invention, the amount of oncolytic employed will be variable. It should be understood that the amount of the oncolytic actually administered will be determined by a physician, in the light of the relevant circumstances, including the condition to be treated, the chosen route of administration, the actual oncolytic administered, the age, weight, and response of the individual patient (mammal), and the severity of the patient's symptoms. Of course, the amount of oncolytic administered should be decided and closely monitored by that patient's physician. After deciding on the oncolytic or oncolytics to employ, “The Physician's Desk Reference®”, published by Medical Economics Company at Montvale, N.J. 07645-1742, is a helpful resource to the physician in deciding on amounts of the oncolytic to administer and is updated annually. [1077]
Preferred formulations, and the methods of this invention employing those formulations, are those which do not contain an oncolytic. Thus, it is preferred to administer the compounds of this invention separately from the oncolytic. The oncolytics mentioned in this specification are commercially available and may be purchased in pre-formulated forms suitable for the methods of this invention. [1078]
The compounds of formula I alone, or optionally in combination with an oncolytic, are usually administered in the form of pharmaceutical formulations. These formulations can be administered by a variety of routes including oral, rectal, transdermal, subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, and intranasal. Such formulations are prepared in a manner well known in the pharmaceutical art and comprise at least one active compound of formula I. [1079]
The present invention also includes methods employing pharmaceutical formulations which contain, as the active ingredient, the compounds of formula I, and optionally an oncolytic, associated with pharmaceutical carriers. In making the formulations of the present invention the active ingredient(s) is usually mixed with an excipient, diluted by an excipient, or enclosed within such a carrier which can be in the form of a capsule, sachet, paper or other container. When the excipient serves as a diluent, it can be a solid, semi-solid, or liquid material, which acts as a vehicle, carrier or medium for the active ingredient. Thus, the formulations can be in the form of tablets, pills, powders, lozenges, sachets, cachets, elixirs, suspensions, emulsions, solutions, syrups, aerosols (as a solid or in a liquid medium), ointments containing for example up to 10% by weight of the active compound, soft and hard gelatin capsules, suppositories, sterile injectable solutions, and sterile packaged powders. [1080]
In preparing a formulation, it may be necessary to mill the active compound(s) to provide the appropriate particle size prior to combining with the other ingredients. If the active compound(s) is substantially insoluble, it ordinarily is milled to a particle size of less than 200 mesh. If the active compound(s) is substantially water soluble, the particle size is normally adjusted by milling to provide a substantially uniform distribution in the formulation, e.g., about 40 mesh. [1081]
Some examples of suitable excipients include lactose, dextrose, sucrose, sorbitol, mannitol, starches, gum acacia, calcium phosphate, alginates, tragacanth, gelatin, calcium silicate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, cellulose, water, syrup, and methyl cellulose. The formulations can additionally include: lubricating agents such as talc, magnesium stearate, and mineral oil; wetting agents; emulsifying and suspending agents; preserving agents such as methyl- and propylhydroxybenzoates; sweetening agents; and flavoring agents. The formulations of the invention can be formulated so as to provide quick, sustained or delayed release of the active ingredient after administration to the patient by employing procedures known in the art. [1082]
The formulations are preferably formulated in a unit dosage form, each dosage containing from about 5 to about 100 mg, more usually about 10 to about 30 mg, of each active ingredient. The term “unit dosage form” refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages for human subjects and other mammals, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect, in association with a suitable pharmaceutical excipient. [1083]
The compounds of formula I are effective over a wide dosage range. For example, dosages per day normally fall within the range of about 0.5 to about 30 mg/kg of body weight. In the treatment of adult humans, the range of about 1 to about 15 mg/kg/day, in single or divided dose, is especially preferred. However, it will be understood that the amount of the compound actually administered will be determined by a physician, in the light of the relevant circumstances, including the condition to be treated, the chosen route of administration, the actual compound administered, the age, weight, and response of the individual patient, and the severity of the patient's symptoms, and therefore the above dosage ranges are not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. In some instances dosage levels below the lower limit of the aforesaid range may be more than adequate, while in other cases still larger doses may be employed without causing any harmful side effect, provided that such larger doses are first divided into several smaller doses for administration throughout the day. [1084]
For preparing solid formulations such as tablets the principal active ingredient(s) is mixed with a pharmaceutical excipient to form a solid preformulation composition containing a homogeneous mixture of a compound of the present invention. When referring to these preformulation compositions as homogeneous, it is meant that the active ingredient(s) is dispersed evenly throughout the formulation so that the formulation may be readily subdivided into equally effective unit dosage forms such as tablets, pills and capsules. This solid preformulation is then subdivided into unit dosage forms of the type described above containing from 1 to about 500 mg of the active ingredient of the present invention. [1085]
The tablets or pills of the present invention may be coated or otherwise compounded to provide a dosage form affording the advantage of prolonged action. For example, the tablet or pill can comprise an inner dosage and an outer dosage component, the latter being in the form of an envelope over the former. The two components can be separated by enteric layer which serves to resist disintegration in the stomach and permit the inner component to pass intact into the duodenum or to be delayed in release. A variety of materials can be used for such enteric layers or coatings, such materials including a number of polymeric acids and mixtures of polymeric acids with such materials as shellac, cetyl alcohol, and cellulose acetate. [1086]
The novel formulations which are liquid forms may be incorporated for administration orally or by injection and include aqueous solutions, suitably flavored syrups, aqueous or oil suspensions, and flavored emulsions with edible oils such as cottonseed oil, sesame oil, coconut oil, or peanut oil, as well as elixirs and similar pharmaceutical vehicles. [1087]
Formulations for inhalation or insufflation include solutions and suspensions in pharmaceutical, aqueous or organic solvents, or mixtures thereof, and powders. The liquid or solid formulations may contain suitable pharmaceutical excipients as described supra. Preferably the formulations are administered by the oral or nasal respiratory route for local or systemic effect. Compositions in preferably pharmaceutical solvents may be nebulized by use of inert gases. Nebulized solutions may be breathed directly from the nebulizing device or the nebulizing device may be attached to a face mask, tent, or intermittent positive pressure breathing machine. Solution, suspension, or powder formulations may be administered, preferably orally or nasally, from devices which deliver the formulation in an appropriate manner. [1088]
The following formulation examples are illustrative only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. “Active ingredient(s)” means a compound according to formula I or a pharmaceutical salt or solvate thereof optionally with one or more oncolytics. [1089]

When the polymers have gone into solution, the solution is cooled to about 50-55° C. and the active ingredient is slowly admixed. The homogenous mixture is poured into forms made of an inert material to produce a drug-containing diffusion matrix having a thickness of about 24 mm. This diffusion matrix is then cut to form individual tablets having the appropriate size. [1110]
Another preferred formulation employed in the methods of the present invention employs transdermal delivery devices (“patches”). Such transdermal patches may be used to provide continuous or discontinuous infusion of the compounds of the present invention in controlled amounts. The construction and use of transdermal patches for the delivery of pharmaceutical agents is well known in the art. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,023,252, issued Jun. 11, 1991, herein incorporated by reference. Such patches may be constructed for continuous, pulsatile, or on demand delivery of pharmaceutical agents. [1111]
Frequently, it will be desirable or necessary to introduce the pharmaceutical formulation to the brain, either directly or indirectly. Direct techniques usually involve placement of a drug delivery catheter into the host's ventricular system to bypass the blood-brain barrier. One such implantable delivery system, used for the transport of biological factors to specific anatomical regions of the body, is described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,011,472, issued Apr. 30, 1991, which is herein incorporated by reference. [1112]
Indirect techniques, which are generally preferred, usually involve formulating the compositions to provide for drug latentiation by the conversion of hydrophilic drugs into lipid-soluble drugs or prodrugs. Latentiation is generally achieved through blocking of the hydroxy, carbonyl, sulfate, and primary amine groups present on the drug to render the drug more lipid soluble and amenable to transportation across the blood-brain barrier. Alternatively, the delivery of hydrophilic drugs may be enhanced by intra-arterial infusion of hypertonic solutions, which can transiently open the blood-brain barrier. [1113]
