Definitions

  • This invention relates to 2,6-methano-2H-1 -benzoxocincarboxamide compounds which exhibit 5-HT 3 -antagonist properties including unique CNS, anti- emetic and gastric prokinetic activity and which are void of any significant D2 receptor binding affinity.
  • This invention relates also to processes for the preparation, separation and purification of said compounds.
  • 5-Hydroxytryptamine abbreviated “5-HT”
  • Serotonin is found throughout the body including the gastrointestinal tract, platelets, spleen and brain and appears to be involved in a great number of physiological processes such as neurotransmission at certain neurones in the brain, and is implicated in a number of central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Additionally, serotonin appears to act as a local hormone in the periphery; it is released in the gastrointestinal tract, where it increases small intestinal motility, inhibits stomach and colon motility, and stimulates stomach acid production. Serotonin is most likely involved in normal intestinal peristalsis .
  • D-receptors are 5-HT2- receptors
  • M-receptors are termed 5-HT3-receptors
  • all other receptors which are clearly not 5-HT2 or 5-HT3, have been referred to as 5-HT- ⁇ -like and work is being continued on this classification.
  • 5-HT3-receptors have been located in non-neurological tissue, brain tissue, and a number of peripheral tissues related to different responses. It has been reported that 5-HT 3 -receptors are located on peripheral neurones where they are related to serotonin's (excitatory) depolarizing action.
  • 5- HT3-receptor activity has been reported: action involving postganglionic sympathetic and parasympathetic neurones, leading to depolarization and release of noradrenaline and acetylcholine, respectively (5-HT3B subtype); action on enteric neurones, where serotonin may modulate the level of acetylcholine (5-HT3C subtype); and action on sensory nerves such as those involved in the stimulation of heart nerve endings to produce a reflex bradycardia (5HT3A subtype), and also in the perception of pain.
  • 5-HT3-antagonists have been shown to be very effective at controlling and preventing emesis (vomiting) induced by chemotherapy and radiotherapy in cancer patients.
  • the anti-emetic effects of 5-HT3-antagonists in animals exposed to cancer chemotherapy or radiation are similar to those seen following abdominal vagotomy.
  • the antagonist compounds are believed to act by blocking 5-HT3-receptors situated on the cell membranes of the tissue forming the vagal afferent input to the emetic coordinating areas on the brain stem.
  • Serotonin is also believed to be involved in the disorder known as migraine headache. Serotonin released locally within the blood vessels of the head is believed to interact with elements of the perivascular neural plexus of which the afferent, substance P-containing fibers of the trigeminal system are believed relevant to the condition. By activating specific sites on sensory neuronal terminals, serotonin is believed to generate pain directly and also indirectly by enhancing the nociceptive effects of other inflammatory mediators, for example bradykinin. A further consequence of stimulating the afferent neurones would be the local release of substance P and possibly other sensory mediators, either directly or through an reflex mechanism, thus providing a further contribution to the vascular changes and pain of migraine.
  • Serotonin is known to cause pain when applied to the exposed blister base or after an intradermal injection; and it also greatly enhances the pain response to bradykinin. In both cases, the pain message is believed to involve specific 5-HT3-receptors on the primary afferent neurones.
  • 5-HT 3 -antagonists are also reported to exert potential antipsychotic effects, and are believed to be involved in anxiety. Although not understood well, the effect is believed to be related to the indirect blocking of serotonin 5-HT3-mediated modulation of dopamine activity. Many workers are investigating various compounds having 5-HT 3 -antagonist activity.
  • 5-HT3 agents originated from work carried out with metoclopramide (Beecham's Maxolon, A.H. Robins' Reglan), which is marketed for use in the treatment of nausea and vomiting at high doses.
  • Metoclopramide is a dopamine antagonist with weak 5-HT3-antagonist activity, which becomes more prominent at higher doses. It is reported that the 5-HT3 activity and not the dopamine antagonism is primarily responsible for its anti-emetic properties. Other workers are investigating this compound in connection with the pain and vomiting accompanying migraine.
  • Merrell Dow's compound MDL-72222 is reported to be effective as an acute therapy for migraine, but toxicity problems have reportedly ended work on this compound.
  • Currently four compounds, A.H. Robins' Zacopride, Beecham's BR -43694, Glaxo's GR-380-32F and Sandoz' ICS-205-930 are in clinical trials for use in chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting.
  • GR-38032F is also in clinical trials in anxiety and schizophrenia, and reportedly, Zacopride in anxiety, while ICS-205-930 has been shown to be useful in treating carcinoid syndrome.
  • gastroprokinetic agents include Beecham's BRL- 24924, which is a serotonin-active agent for use in gut motility disorders such as gastric paresis, audition reflux esophagitis, and is known to have also 5-HT3- antagonist activity.
  • Metoclopramide, Zacopride, Cisapride and BRL-24924 are characterized by a carboxamide moiety situated para to the amino group of 2-chloro-5-methoxy aniline.
  • BRL-43694, ICS-205-930, GR-38032F and GR-65630 are characterized by a carbonyl group in the 3-position of indole or N-methyl indole.
  • MDL-72222 is a bridged azabicyclic 2,4-dichlorobenzoate, while Zacopride, BRL-24924, BRL- 43694 and ICS-205930 have also bridged azabicyclic groups in the form of a carboxamide or carboxylic ester.
