Definitions

  • the present invention encompasses novel pyridazinone compounds useful in the treatment of cyclooxygenase-2 mediated diseases. More particularly, this invention concerns a method of inhibiting prostaglandin biosynthesis, particularly the induced prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase (PGHS-2, cyclooxygenase-2, COX-2) protein.
  • PGHS-2 induced prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase
  • the prostaglandins are extremely potent substances which produce a wide variety of biological effects, often in the nanomolar to picomolar concentration range.
  • the discovery of two forms of prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase, isoenzymes PGHS-1 and PGHS-2, that catalyze the oxidation of arachidonic acid leading to prostaglandin biosynthesis has resulted in renewed research to delineate the role of these two isozymes in physiology and pathophysiology. These isozymes have been shown to have different gene regulation and represent distinctly different prostaglandin biosynthesis pathways.
  • the PGHS-1 pathway is expressed constitutively in most cell types.
  • the PGHS-2 pathway involves an induction mechanism which has been linked to inflammation, mitogenesis and ovulation phenomena.
  • Prostaglandin inhibitors provide therapy for pain, fever, and inflammation, and are useful therapies, for example in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.
  • the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen, naproxen and fenamates inhibit both isozymes.
  • Inhibition of the constitutive enzyme PGHS-1 results in gastrointestinal side effects including ulcers and bleeding and incidence of renal problems with chronic therapy.
  • Inhibitors of the induced isozyme PGHS-2 may provide anti-inflammatory activity without the side effects of PGHS-1 inhibitors.
  • the problem of side-effects associated with NSAID administration has never completely been solved in the past. Enteric coated tablets and co-administration with misoprostol, a prostaglandin derivative, have been tried in an attempt to minimize stomach toxicity. It would be advantageous to provide compounds which are selective inhibitors of the induced isozyme PGHS-2.

Abstract

The present invention describes pyridazinone compounds which are cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors, and in particular, are selective inhibitors of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX/2), COX-2 is the inducible isoform associated with inflammation, as opposed to the constitutive isoform, cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) which is an important 'housekeeping' enzyme in many tissues, including the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and the kidneys. The selectivity of these compounds for COX-2 minimizes the unwanted GI and renal side-effects seen with currently marketed non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

This application is a continuation-in-part application of U.S. patent application Serial No. 08/917,023 filed August 22, 1997, which was based on provisional application 60/056,733 filed August 22, 1997.
Technical Field The present invention encompasses novel pyridazinone compounds useful in the treatment of cyclooxygenase-2 mediated diseases. More particularly, this invention concerns a method of inhibiting prostaglandin biosynthesis, particularly the induced prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase (PGHS-2, cyclooxygenase-2, COX-2) protein.
Background of the Invention
The prostaglandins are extremely potent substances which produce a wide variety of biological effects, often in the nanomolar to picomolar concentration range. The discovery of two forms of prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase, isoenzymes PGHS-1 and PGHS-2, that catalyze the oxidation of arachidonic acid leading to prostaglandin biosynthesis has resulted in renewed research to delineate the role of these two isozymes in physiology and pathophysiology. These isozymes have been shown to have different gene regulation and represent distinctly different prostaglandin biosynthesis pathways. The PGHS-1 pathway is expressed constitutively in most cell types. It responds to produce prostaglandins that regulate acute events in vascular homeostasis and also has a role in maintaining normal stomach and renal function. The PGHS-2 pathway involves an induction mechanism which has been linked to inflammation, mitogenesis and ovulation phenomena.
Prostaglandin inhibitors provide therapy for pain, fever, and inflammation, and are useful therapies, for example in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. The non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen, naproxen and fenamates inhibit both isozymes. Inhibition of the constitutive enzyme PGHS-1 results in gastrointestinal side effects including ulcers and bleeding and incidence of renal problems with chronic therapy. Inhibitors of the induced isozyme PGHS-2 may provide anti-inflammatory activity without the side effects of PGHS-1 inhibitors. The problem of side-effects associated with NSAID administration has never completely been solved in the past. Enteric coated tablets and co-administration with misoprostol, a prostaglandin derivative, have been tried in an attempt to minimize stomach toxicity. It would be advantageous to provide compounds which are selective inhibitors of the induced isozyme PGHS-2.
The present invention discloses novel compounds which are selective inhibitors of PGHS-2.
Summary of the Invention
The present invention discloses pyridazinone compounds which are selective inhibitors of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). The compounds of the present invention have the formula I:

Preparation of Compounds of the Invention
The compounds of the invention may be prepared by a variety of synthetic routes. Representative procedures are outlined in Schemes1 -3, below.
A general route to the compounds of the invention having Formula III, where the aryl group at the 5-position on the pyridazinone ring is substituted with a sulfonyl group is described in Scheme 1 , below. The dichloro-3(2H)-pyridazinone is reacted with benzyl chloride and potassium carbonate in methanol. The 2- benzyl-4-chloro-5-methoxy-3(2H)-pyridazinone is then treated with a boronic acid such as 4-fluorobenzeneboronic acid (shown) and a palladium catalyst. The methoxy group was hydrolyzed with 48% hydrobromic acid to furnish the 5- hydroxypyridazinone compound. The 5-hydroxypyridazinone product was treated with triflic anhydride followed by substitution on the pyridazinone ring using 4- methylthiobenzeneboronic acid. This furnished the methyl thioether compound which was reacted with peracetic acid in acetic acid and methylene chloride to provide the methyl sulfone. The benzyl group is removed using aluminum bromide or another suitable Lewis acid. The R group can be added via substitution using an appropriate alkylating agent and base.

Figure imgf000043_0001
Another route to the compounds of the invention having Formula III is described in Scheme 2, below. The 4-bromothioanisole or other suitable thioether is reacted with a trialkoxyborate, such as trimethoxyborate or triisopropylborate to convert it to 4-(Methylthio)benzeneboronic acid . The boronic acid is reacted with 2-benzyl-4,5-dibromo-3(2H)-pyridazinone using tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)- palladium (0) in dimethoxyethane. The product is then coupled with a second boronic acid such as 4-fluorobenzeneboronic acid (shown) and a palladium catalyst to provide the thioether. This furnished the methyl thioether compound which was reacted with meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (MCPBA) in methylene chloride to provide the methyl sulfone. The benzyl group is removed using aluminum bromide or another suitable Lewis acid. The R group can be added via substitution using an appropriate alkylating agent and base.

Figure imgf000044_0001
A third route to the compounds of the invention having Formula III is described in Scheme 3, below. (4-Thiomethylphenyl)dimethylthioketene acetal, mono-S-oxide was prepared by reaction of 4-thiomethylbenzaldehyde (Y is CH3S) with methyl(methylsulfinylmethyl)sulfide and sodium hydroxide. The thioketene acetal and methyl 4-fluorophenylacetate or suitable ester (X is fluorine) were treated with a strong base such as sodium hexamethyldisilazide in THF to provide the butyrate ester. The dithioacetal ketene was directly cyclized to the unsubstituted pyridazinone using hydrazine and a salt. The pyridazinone was oxidized with peroxyacetic acid to provide the sulfonyl pyridazone. In an alternate route, Scheme 3-A, the thioacetal ketene was treated with perchloric acid to provide an ester-aldehyde as a mixture of diastereomers. The oxidation products were treated with hydrazine and then oxidized with peroxyacetic acid to obtain the sulfonyl dihydropyridazinone. The dihydropyridazinone can be dehydrogenated to form the pyridazinone by treatment with reagents such as bromine in acetic acid. The R group may be added via substitution using an appropriate alkylating agent and base.

A general route to the compounds of the invention having Formula III, where the aryl group at the 5-position on the pyridazinone ring is substituted with a sulfonyl group ring is described in Scheme 5, below. A mucohalo acid, such as, for example, mucobromic or mucochloric acid, is reacted with an hydrazine having the desired R group to provide the dihalopyridazinone compound, 5A. Treatment of the dihalo-compound with an alcohol in the presence of a base, such as, for example, sodium or potassium hydride, will provide an alkoxide, 5B. (If the alkoxy group is to be removed at a . later time then methanol is the preferred alcohol.) Reaction of the alkoxy-halide with a methylthiophenyl boronic will provide the alkoxy-pyridazinone 5C. The alkoxy group can be converted to a hydrocarbyl group by treatment with a Ghgnard reagent to provide the thioether 5D. The thioether can be oxidized with an oxidizing agent, such as, for example, peracetic acid, meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid and the like, to form the sulfinyl compound 5G, or the methylsulfone compound 5E. Rearrangement and hydrolysis of the sulfinyl compound, 5G, provides the thiophenol. The thiophenol is then oxidized, activated and aminated to convert it to the amino-sulfonyl compound 5H. Alternatively, the methylsulfonyl compound, 5E, can be converted to the amino- sulfonyl compound by 5H by treatment of the methylsulfonyl compound with a diazodicarboxylate, such as, for example, DBAD, DIAD, DEAD and the like, and a disilazane anion, such as, for example, lithium HMDS and the like, followed by treatment with sodium acetate and hydroxylamine-O-sulphonic acid in water provides the aminosulfonyl compound, 5H.

Alternatively, the alkoxy-pyridazinone 5C can be oxidized, as shown in Scheme 5A. The first step is employing an oxidizing agent, such as, for example, peracetic acid, meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid and the like, to form the sulfinyl compound 5G\ or the methylsulfone compound 5E'. Rearrangement and hydrolysis of the sulfinyl compound provides the thiophenol. The thiophenol is then oxidized, activated and aminated to convert it to the amino-sulfonyl compound 5H'. Finally, the methylsulfonyl compound can be converted to the aminosulfonyl compound by 5H' by treatment of the methylsulfonyl compound 5E' with a diazodicarboxylate, such as, for example, DBAD, DIAD, DEAD and the like, and a disilazane anion, such as, for example, lithium HMDS and the like, followed by treatment with sodium acetate and hydroxylamine-O-sulphonic acid in water provides the aminosulfonyl compound, 5H'.

446A. 4-Bromosθl6noanisolθ
Freshly crushed magnesium turnings (6.1 g, 0.25 mol) were suspended with vigorous stirring in a solution of diethyl ether (360 mL) and 1 ,4-dibromobenzene (10 g, 0.04 mol). The solution was brought to reflux for 30 minutes, without initiation. Several crystals of iodine were added which initiated the reaction to a self-sustained reflux. The reflux was maintained as the remainder of the 1 ,4- dibromobenzene (49 g, 0.21 mol) was slowly added. The reaction was refluxed for an additional 2 hours after addition of the 1 ,4-dibromobenzene was completed. When nearly all of the magnesium turnings had been consumed, the yellow/gray heterogeneous solution was cooled to 23 °C, and selenium (19 g, 0.24 mol) was added in small portions via spatula so as to maintain a gentle reflux. The selenium that became stuck to the sides of the flask was washed in with additional diethyl ether. After addition, the solution was stirred for 20 minutes at 23 °C and then was cooled to 0 °C. A diethyl ether (20 mL) solution of methyl iodide (35.5 g, 0.25 mol) was slowly added dropwise to the reaction mixture. Upon completion of addition, the cooling bath was removed, and the solution stirred for 3 hours at 23 °C. The reaction solution was slowly poured into ice water/1 M HCl , and then the biphasic solution filtered through a glass wool plug. The ethereal layer was separated and the aqueous phase extracted twice more with diethyl ether. The combined ethereal extracts were dried over MgSθ4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to provide a semi-viscous orange oil. On standing overnight at -20 °C, large yellow needles formed. The residual oil was drawn off via pipette to provide 17 g (27%) of crystalline product. (J. Org. Chem., 1983, 48, 4169) 1 H NMR (300 MHz, CDCI3) δ

Prostaglandin Inhibition Determination Compound Preparation and Administration For oral administration, test compounds were suspended on the day of use in 100% polyethyleneglycol (PEG 400) with a motorized homogenizer equipped with a Teflon-coated pestle (TRI-R Instrument, Jamaica, NY).
To compare the mean responses of the treatment groups, analysis of variance was applied. Percent inhibition values were determined by comparing the individual treatment mean values to the mean of the control group. Linear regression was used to estimate ICso's/EDso's in appropriate assays.
EIA Determination of Prostaglandins
EIA reagents for prostaglandin determination were purchased from Perseptive Diagnostics, (Cambridge, MA). Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) levels in lavage fluids were determined after the samples were dried under nitrogen and reconstituted with assay buffer. PGE2 levels in enzyme assays or cell culture media were measured against standards prepared in the same milieu. The immunoassays were conducted as recommended by the manufacturer. The EIA was conducted in 06 well microtiter plates (Nunc Roskilde, Denmark) and optical density was measured using a microplate reader (Vmax, Molecular Devices Corp., Menlo Park, CA).

IL-1 B Induced PGE2 Production in WISH Cells
Human amnionic WISH cells were grown to 80% confluence in 48 well plates. Following removal of the growth medium and two washings with Gey's Balanced Salt Solutn, 5 ng IL-1 β/ml (UBI, Lake Placid, NY) was added to the cells with or without test compound in DMSO (0.01 % v/v) in Neuman-Tytell Serumless Medium (GIBCO, Grand Island, NY). Following an 18 hour incubation to allow for the maximal induction of PGHS-2, the conditioned medium was removed and assayed for PGE2 content by EIA analysis as described above. Monocyte UΘ37 (ATCC, Rockville, MD) cells were grown in a similar fashion to the WISH cells. After incubation, the conditioned medium was removed and assayed for Cox-1 content by EIA analysis as described above.
The data illustrating the inhibition of prostaglandin biosynthesis in vitro by compounds of this invention is shown in Table 2. U037 values indicate Cox-1 percent inhibition at the particular micromolar dose level while partenthetical values indicate IC50 values.

Human Whole Platelet Cyclooxygenase-1 Assay (HWCX)
Blood from normal healthy volunteers is collected into tubes containing ACD (acid citrate dextrose) as the anticoagulant. This blood is centrifuged at 175 x g to prepare platelet rich plasma. The platelet rich plasma is then centrifuged at 100 x g to pellet the white blood cells, leaving the platelets in the supernatant. The supernatant is layered on a cushion of 0.7 mL of 10% bovine serum albumin in Tyrodes solution (Gibco; Grand Island, NY) and then centrifuged at 1000 x g. The resulting supernatant from this centrifugation is then removed and 11 mL of Tyrodes solution is added to the remaining pellet of platelets. The platelets are then aliquoted at 120 μl into a 06 well plate. Experimental compounds are added and allowed to pre-incubate for 10 minutes. At the end of this pre-incubation period, the calcium ionophore A23187 is added to a final concentration of 8.8 μM and the incubation is continued for ten minutes. The reaction is stopped by adding cold 6 mM EDTA, the incubation mixture is centrifuged at 220 x g, and the supematants are then analyzed for thromboxane using a commercial kit from Cayman Chemical (Ann Arbor, Ml).

Carrageenan Induced Paw Edema (CPE) in Rats
Hindpaw edema was induced in male rats as described by Winter et al., Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. Med., 1962, 111, 544. Briefly, male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing between 170 and 190 g were administered test compounds orally 1 hour prior to the subplantar injection of 0.1 ml of 1 % sodium carrageenan (lambda carrageenan, Sigma Chemical Co., St Louis, MO) into the right hindpaw. Right paw volumes (ml) were measured immediately following injection of carrageenan for baseline volume measurements using a Buxco plethysmograph (Buxco Electronics, Inc., Troy, NY). Three hours after the injection of carrageenan, right paws were remeasured and paw edema calculated for each rat by subtracting the zero time reading from the 3 hour reading. Data are reported as mean percent inhibition +/- SEM. Statistical
-260- significance of results was analyzed by Dunnetts multiple comparison test where p< 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Rat Carrageenan Pleural inflammation (CIP) Model
Pleural inflammation was induced in male adrenaiectomized Sprague- Dawley rats following the method of Vinegar et al., Fed. Proc. 1976, 35, 2447- 2456. Animals were orally dosed with experimental compounds, 30 minutes prior to the intrapleural injection of 2% lambda carrageenan (Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis MO). Four hours later the animals were euthanized and the pleural cavities lavaged with ice cold saline. The lavage fluid was then added to two volumes of ice cold methanol (final methanol concentration 66%) to lyse cells and precipitate protein. Eicosanoids were determined by EIA as described above.
The data illustrating the inhibition of prostaglandin biosynthesis in vivo by the compounds of this invention is shown in Table 3. Values reported are percent inhibition at 10 milligrams per kilogram body weight.
Carrageenan induced air pouch prostaglandin biosynthesis model (CAP)
Air pouches are formed in the backs of male Sprague Dawley rats by injecting 20 mL of sterile air on day 0. Three days later the pouch was reinflated with an additional 10 mL of sterile air. On day 7, 1 mL of saline containing 0.2 % lambda carrageenan (Sigma Chemical Co.) is injected into the pouch to induce the inflammatory reaction that is characterized by the release of prostaglandins. Test compounds are dosed at 0.1 to 10 mg/kg 30 minutes prior to carrageenan. Four hours after the carrageenan injection the pouch is lavaged and levels of prostaglandins are determined by enzyme immuno-assay using commercially available kits. Percent inhibitions are calculated by comparing the response in animals which have received vehicle to those which received compound. Values for Cox-2 inhibition that are parenthetical indicate ED50 values.
The data illustrating the inhibition of prostaglandin biosynthesis in vivo by the compounds of this invention is shown in Table 3. Values reported are percent inhibition at 10 milligrams per kilogram body weight for CIP and CPE tests and at 3 milligrams per kilogram body weight for CAP testing.

Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs. In addition to the active compounds, the liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art such as, for example, water or other solvents, solubilizing agents and emulsifiers such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1 ,3- butylene glycol, dimethylformamide, oils (such as, for example, cottonseed, groundnut, corn, germ, olive, castor, sesame oils, and the like), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, poly-ethyl-ene glycols and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, and mixtures thereof. Besides inert diluents, the oral compositions can also include adjuvants such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents.
Injectable preparations, such as, for example, sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions may be formulated according to the known art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution, suspension or emulsion in a nontoxic parenterally acceptable diluent or solvent, such as, for example, a solution in 1 ,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution, isotonic sodium chloride solution, and the like. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed 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 are used in the preparation of injectable preparations.
The injectable formulations can be sterilized by any method known in the art, such as, for example, by filtration through a bacterial-retaining filter, or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved or dispersed in sterile water or other sterile injectable medium prior to use.
In order to prolong the effect of a drug, it is often desirable to slow the absorption of the drug from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This may be accomplished by the use of a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous material with poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the drug then depends upon its rate of dissolution which, in turn, may depend upon crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally administered drug form is accomplished by dissolving or suspending the drug in an oil vehicle. Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsulated matrices of the drug in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. Depending upon the ratio of drug to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer employed, the rate of drug release can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides) Depot injectable formulations are also prepared by entrapping the drug in liposomes or microemulsions which are compatible with body tissues.
Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are preferably suppositories which can be prepared by mixing the compounds of this invention with suitable non-irritating excipients or carriers such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol or a suppository wax which are solid at ambient temperature but liquid at body temperature and thus melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity and release the active compound.
Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound is usually mixed with at least one inert, pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or carrier such as, for example, sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate and/or a) fillers or extenders such as, for example, starches, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and silicic acid, b) binders such as, for example, carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidinone, sucrose, and acacia, c) humectants such as, for example, glycerol, d) disintegrating agents such as, for example, agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate, e) solution retarding agents such as, for example, paraffin, f) absorption accelerators such as, for example, quaternary ammonium compounds, g) wetting agents such as, for example, cetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate, h) absorbents such as, for example, kaolin and bentonite clay, and) lubricants such as, for example, talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate, and mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage form may also comprise buffering agents.
Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients such as, for example, lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like.
Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using excipients such as, for example, lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polethylene glycols and the like.
The active compounds can also be in micro-encapsulated form with one or more excipients as noted above. The solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, and granules can be prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings, release controlling coatings and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulation art. In such solid dosage forms the active compound may be admixed with at least one inert diluent such as, for example, sucrose, lactose or starch. Such dosage forms may also comprise, as is normal practice, additional substances other than inert diluents, e.g., tableting lubricants and other tableting aids such as, for example, magnesium stearate and microcrystalline cellulose. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage forms may also comprise buffering agents. They may optionally contain opacifying agents and can also be of a composition that they release the active ingredient(s) only, or preferentially, in a certain part of the intestinal tract, optionally, in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions which can be used include polymeric substances and waxes.
Dosage forms for topical or transdermal administration of a compound of this invention include ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, powders, solutions, sprays, inhalants or patches. The active component is admixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and any needed preservatives or buffers as may be required. Ophthalmic formulation, ear drops, eye ointments, powders and solutions are also contemplated as being within the scope of this invention.
The ointments, pastes, creams and gels may contain, in addition to an active compound of this invention, excipients such as, for example, animal and vegetable fats, oils, waxes, paraffins, starch, tragacanth, cellulose derivatives, poly- ethylene glycols, silicones, bentonites, silicic acid, talc and zinc oxide, or mixtures thereof.
Powders and sprays can contain, in addition to the compounds of this invention, excipients such as, for example, lactose, talc, silicic acid, aluminum hydroxide, calcium silicates and polyamide powder, or mixtures of these substances. Sprays can additionally contain customary propellants such as chloro- fluorohydrocarbons.
