Definitions

  • the present invention relates to novel compounds having activity useful for treating conditions which arise from or are exacerbated by angiogenesis, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, methods of treatment using the compounds, and methods of inhibiting angiogenesis.
  • Angiogenesis is the fundamental process by which new blood vessels are formed and is essential to a variety of normal body activities (such as reproduction, development and wound repair). Although the process is not completely understood, it is believed to involve a complex interplay of molecules which both stimulate and inhibit the growth of endothelial cells, the primary cells of the capillary blood vessels. Under normal conditions these molecules appear to maintain the micro vasculature in a quiescent state (i.e., one of no capillary growth) for prolonged periods that may last for weeks, or in some cases, decades. However, when necessary, such as during wound repair, these same cells can undergo rapid proliferation and turnover within as little as five days (Folkman, J. and Shing, Y., J. Biol.
  • angiogenesis is a highly regulated process under normal conditions, many diseases (characterized as "angiogenic diseases") are driven by persistent unregulated angiogenesis. Otherwise stated, unregulated angiogenesis may either cause a particular disease directly or exacerbate an existing pathological condition. For example, ocular neovascularization has been implicated as the most common cause of blindness. In certain existing conditions such as arthritis, newly formed capillary blood vessels invade the joints and destroy cartilage. In diabetes, new capillaries formed in the retina invade the vitreous, bleed, and cause blindness.

Description

SUBSTITUTED PIPERrDLNES THAT HAVE ANTIANGIOGE IC ACTIVITY
Technical Field The present invention relates to novel compounds having activity useful for treating conditions which arise from or are exacerbated by angiogenesis, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, methods of treatment using the compounds, and methods of inhibiting angiogenesis.
Background of the Invention Angiogenesis is the fundamental process by which new blood vessels are formed and is essential to a variety of normal body activities (such as reproduction, development and wound repair). Although the process is not completely understood, it is believed to involve a complex interplay of molecules which both stimulate and inhibit the growth of endothelial cells, the primary cells of the capillary blood vessels. Under normal conditions these molecules appear to maintain the micro vasculature in a quiescent state (i.e., one of no capillary growth) for prolonged periods that may last for weeks, or in some cases, decades. However, when necessary, such as during wound repair, these same cells can undergo rapid proliferation and turnover within as little as five days (Folkman, J. and Shing, Y., J. Biol. Chem., 267(16): 10931-10934, and Folkman, J. and Klagsbrun, M., Science, 235: 442-447 (1987)). Although angiogenesis is a highly regulated process under normal conditions, many diseases (characterized as "angiogenic diseases") are driven by persistent unregulated angiogenesis. Otherwise stated, unregulated angiogenesis may either cause a particular disease directly or exacerbate an existing pathological condition. For example, ocular neovascularization has been implicated as the most common cause of blindness. In certain existing conditions such as arthritis, newly formed capillary blood vessels invade the joints and destroy cartilage. In diabetes, new capillaries formed in the retina invade the vitreous, bleed, and cause blindness. Growth and metastasis of solid tumors are also angiogenesis- dependent (Folkman, J., Cancer Res., 46: 467-473 (1986), Folkman, J., J. Natl. Cancer Inst, 82: 4-6 (1989)). It has been shown, for example, that tumors which enlarge to greater than 2 mm must obtain their own blood supply and do so by inducing the growth of new capillary blood vessels. Once these new blood vessels become embedded in the tumor, they provide a means for tumor cells to enter the circulation and metastasize to distant sites, such as the liver, the lung, and the bones (Weidner, N., et. al, N. Engl. J. Med., 324(1): 1-8 (1991)). Therefore a need exists for therapeutic agents having angiogenesis inhibiting properties.

Determination of Biological Activity In Vitro Assay for Angio enie Activity The human microvascular endotheHal cell (HMVEC) migration assay was run according to the procedure of S. S. Tolsma, O. V. Volpert, D. J. Good, W. F. Frazier, P. J. Polverini and N. Bouck, J. Cell Biol. 1993, 122, 497-511. The HMVEC migration assay was carried out using Human Microvascular
EndotheHal Cells-Dermal (single donor) and Human Microvascular EndotheHal Cells, (neonatal). The HMVEC cells were starved overnight in DME containing 0.01% bovine serum albuminutes (BSA). CeUs were then harvested with trypsin and resuspended in DME with 0.01% BSA at a concentration of 1.5 X 106 cells per mL. CeUs were added to the bottom of a 48 well modified Boyden chamber (Nucleopore Corporation, Cabin John, MD). The chamber was assembled and inverted, and cells were allowed to attach for 2 hours at 37 °C to polycarbonate chemotaxis membranes (5 μm pore size) that had been soaked in 0.01% gelatin overnight and dried. The chamber was then reinverted, and test substances (total volume of 50 μL), including activators, 15 ng/mL bFGF/VEGF, were added to the wells of the upper chamber. The apparatus was incubated for 4 hours at 37 °C. Membranes were recovered, fixed and stained (Diff Quick, Fisher Scientific) and the number of cells that had migrated to the upper chamber per 3 high power fields counted. Background migration to DME + 0.1 BSA was subtracted and the data reported as the number of cells migrated per 10 high power fields (400X) or, when results from multiple experiments were combined, as the percent inhibition of migration compared to a positive control. Representative compounds of the present invention inhibited human endotheHal cell migration in the above assay between about 8% and about 97% when tested at a concentration of 10 nM. Preferred compounds inhibited human endotheHal cell migration between about 45% and about 97% when tested at a concentration of 10 nM.

Vehicle = PBS The compounds of the present invention including, but not limited to, those specified in the examples possess anti-angiogenic activity. As angiogenesis inhibitors, such compounds are useful in the treatment of both primary and metastatic solid tumors, including carcinomas of breast, colon, rectum, lung, oropharynx, hypopharynx, esophagus, stomach, pancreas, liver, gallbladder and bile ducts, small intestine, urinary tract (including kidney, bladder and urotheHum), female genital tract (including cervix, uterus, and ovaries as weU as chorio carcinoma and gestational trophoblastic disease), male genital tract (including prostate, seminal vesicles, testes and germ cell tumors), endocrine glands (including the thyroid, adrenal, and pituitary glands), and skin, as well as hemangiomas, melanomas, sarcomas (including those arising from bone and soft tissues as weU as Kaposi's sarcoma) and tumors of the brain, nerves, eyes, and meninges (including astrocytomas, gHomas, gHoblastomas, retinoblastomas, neuromas, neuroblastomas, Schwannomas, and meningiomas). Such compounds may also be useful in treating solid tumors arising from hematopoietic malignancies such as leukemias (i.e., chloromas, plasmacytomas and the plaques and tumors of mycosis fungosides and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma/leukemia) as well as in the treatment of lymphomas (both Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas). In addition, these compounds may be useful in the prevention of metastases from the tumors described above either when used alone or in combination with radiotherapy and/or other chemotherapeutic agents. Further uses include the treatment and prophylaxis of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid, immune and degenerative arthritis; various ocular diseases such as diabetic retinopathy, retinopathy of prematurity, corneal graft rejection, retrolental fibroplasia, neovascular glaucoma, rubeosis, retinal neovascularization due to macular degeneration, hypoxia, angiogenesis in the eye associated with infection or surgical intervention, and other abnormal neovascularization conditions of the eye; skin diseases such as psoriasis; blood vessel diseases such as hemagiomas, and capillary prohferation within atherosclerotic plaques; Osier- Webber Syndrome; myocardial angiogenesis; plaque neovascularization; telangiectasia; hemophiliac joints; angiofibroma; and wound granulation. Other uses include the treatment of diseases characterized by excessive or abnormal stimulation of endotheHal cells, including not limited to intestinal adhesions, Crohn's disease, atherosclerosis, scleroderma, and hypertrophic scars (i.e., keloids). Another use is as a birth control agent, by inhibiting ovulation and estabHshment of the placenta. The compounds of the invention are also useful in the treatment of diseases that have angiogenesis as a pathologic consequence such as cat scratch disease (Rochele minutesalia quintosa) and ulcers (Helicobacter pylori). The compounds of the invention are also useful to reduce bleeding by administration prior to surgery, especially for the treatment of resectable tumors. The compounds of the present invention may be used in combination with other compositions and procedures for the treatment of diseases. For example, a tumor may be treated conventionally with surgery, radiation or chemotherapy combined with a compound of the present invention and then a compound of the present invention may be subsequently administered to the patient to extend the dormancy of micrometastases and to stabilize and inhibit the growth of any residual primary tumor. Additionally, the compounds of the present invention may be combined with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, and optionally sustained-release matrices, such as biodegradable polymers, to form therapeutic compositions. A sustained-release matrix, as used herein, is a matrix made of materials, usually polymers, which are degradable by enzymatic or acid-base hydrolysis or by dissolution. Once inserted into the body, the matrix is acted upon by enzymes and body fluids. A sustained-release matrix desirably is chosen from biocompatible materials such as liposomes, polylactides (polylactic acid), polyglycolide (polymer of glycolic acid), polylactide co- glycoHde (copolymers of lactic acid and glycoHc acid) polyanhydrides, poly(ortho)esters, polypeptides, hyaluronic acid, collagen, chondroitin sulfate, carboxylic acids, fatty acids, phosphoHpids, polysaccharides, nucleic acids, polyamino acids, amino acids such as phenylalanine, tyrosine, isoleucine, polynucleotides, polyvinyl propylene, polyvinylpyrrolidone and silicone. A preferred biodegradable matrix is a matrix of one of either polylactide, polyglycolide, or polylactide co-glycolide (co-polymers of lactic acid and glycolic acid). When used in the above or other treatments, a therapeutically effective amount of one of the compounds of the present invention can be employed as a zwitterion or as a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. By a "therapeutically effective amount" of the compound of the invention is meant a sufficient amount of the compound to treat an angiogenic disease, (for example, to limit tumor growth or to slow or block tumor metastasis) at a reasonable benefit/risk ratio applicable to any medical treatment. It will be understood, however, that the total daily usage of the compounds and compositions of the present invention will be decided by the attending physician within the scope of sound medical judgment. The specific therapeutically effective dose level for any particular patient will depend upon a variety of factors including the disorder being treated and the severity of the disorder; activity of the specific compound employed; the specific composition employed, the age, body weight, general health, sex and diet of the patient; the time of administration, route of administration, and rate of excretion of the specific compound employed; the duration of the treatment; drugs used in combination or coincidential with the specific compound employed; and like factors weU known in the medical arts. For example, it is weU within the skill of the art to start doses of the compound at levels lower than those required to achieve the desired therapeutic effect and to graduaUy increase the dosage until the desired effect is achieved. By "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" is meant those salts which are, within the scope of sound medical judgement, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of humans and lower animals without undue toxicity, irritation, aUergic response and the like and are commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are weU-known in the art. For example, S. M. Berge et al. describe pharmaceutically acceptable salts in detail in J. Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1977, 66: 1 et seq. The salts can be prepared in situ during the final isolation and purification of the compounds of the present invention or separately by reacting a free base function with a suitable organic acid. Representative acid addition salts include, but are not limited to acetate, adipate, alginate, citrate, aspartate, benzoate, benzenesulfonate, bisulfate, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, digluconate, glycerophosphate, hemisulfate, heptanoate, hexanoate, fumarate, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, 2-hydroxyethansulfonate (isethionate), lactate, maleate, methanesulfonate, nicotinate, 2-naphthalenesulfonate, oxalate, pamoate, pectinate, persulfate, 3-phenylpropionate, picrate, pivalate, propionate, succinate, tartrate, thiocyanate, phosphate, glutamate, bicarbonate, p-toluenesulfonate and undecanoate. Also, the basic nitrogen- containing groups can be quaternized with such agents as lower alkyl halides such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl chlorides, bromides and iodides; dialkyl sulfates like dimethyl, diethyl, dibutyl and diamyl sulfates; long chain halides such as decyl, lauryl, myristyl and stearyl chlorides, bromides and iodides; arylalkyl halides Hke benzyl and phenethyl bromides and others. Water or oil-soluble or dispersible products are thereby obtained. Examples of acids which can be employed to form pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include such inorganic acids as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulphuric acid and phosphoric acid and such organic acids as oxalic acid, maleic acid, succinic acid and citric acid. Basic addition salts can be prepared in situ during the final isolation and purification of compounds of this invention by reacting a carboxylic acid-containing moiety with a suitable base such as the hydroxide, carbonate or bicarbonate of a pharmaceutically acceptable metal cation or with ammonia or an organic primary, secondary or tertiary amine. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, cations based on alkaH metals or alkaline earth metals such as lithium, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium and aluminum salts and the Hke and nontoxic quaternary ammonia and amine cations including ammonium, tetramethylammonium, tetraethylammonium, methylamine, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, triethylamine, diethylamine, ethylamine and the Hke. Other representative organic amines useful for the formation of base addition salts include ethylenediamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine, piperidine, piperazine and the like. A compound of the present invention may be administered as a pharmaceutical composition containing a compound of the present invention in combination with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. A pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient refers to a non-toxic solid, semi-soHd or Hquid filler, diluent, encapsulating material or formulation auxiliary of any type. The compositions can be administered parenteraUy, intracisternally, intravaginally, intraperitoneally, topically (as by powders, ointments, drops or transdermal patch), rectally, or bucally. The term "parenteral" as used herein refers to modes of administration which include intravenous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, intrasternal, subcutaneous and intraarticular injection and infusion. Pharmaceutical compositions for parenteral injection comprise pharmaceutically- acceptable sterile aqueous or nonaqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions or emulsions, as weU as sterile powders for reconstitution into sterile injectable solutions or dispersions just prior to use. Examples of suitable aqueous and nonaqueous carriers, diluents, solvents or vehicles include water, ethanol, polyols (such as glycerol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, and the like), carboxymethylcellulose and suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils (such as olive oil), and injectable organic esters such as ethyl oleate. Proper fluidity may be maintained, for example, by the use of coating materials such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions, and by the use of surfactants. These compositions can also contain adjuvants such as preservative, wetting agents, emulsifying agents, and dispersing agents. Prevention of the action of microorganisms may be ensured by the inclusion of various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, paraben, chlorobutanol, phenol sorbic acid, and the Hke. It may also be desirable to include isotonic agents such as sugars, sodium chloride, and the Hke. Prolonged absorption of the injectable pharmaceutical form may be brought about by the inclusion of agents which delay absorption, such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin. Injectable depot forms are made by forming micro encapsule matrices of the drug in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycoHde, poly(ortho esters), poly(anhydrides), and (poly)glycols, such as PEG. Depending upon the ratio of drug to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer employed, the rate of drug release can be controlled. Depot injectable formulations are also prepared by entrapping the drug in liposomes or microemulsions which are compatible with body tissues. The injectable formulations may be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacterial-retaining filter, or by incorporating steriHzing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved or dispersed in sterile water or other sterile injectable medium just prior to use. Topical administration includes administration to the skin or mucosa, including surfaces of the lung and eye. Compositions for topical administration, including those for inhalation, may be prepared as a dry powder which may be pressurized or non-pressurized. In non-pressurized powder compositions, the active ingredient in finely divided form may be used in admixture with a larger-sized pharmaceuticaUy-acceptable inert carrier comprising particles having a size, for example, of up to 100 micrometers in diameter. Suitable inert carriers include sugars such as lactose. Desirably, at least 95% by weight of the particles of the active ingredient have an effective particle size in the range of 0.01 to 10 micrometers. Alternatively, the composition may be pressurized and contain a compressed gas, such as nitrogen or a liquified gas propellant. The liquified propellant medium and indeed the total composition is preferably such that the active ingredient does not dissolve therein to any substantial extent. The pressurized composition may also contain a surface active agent, such as a Hquid or solid non-ionic surface active agent or may be a solid anionic surface active agent. It is preferred to use the solid anionic surface active agent in the form of a sodium salt. A further form of topical administration is to the eye. A compound of the invention is deHvered in a pharmaceutically acceptable ophthalmic vehicle, such that the compound is maintained in contact with the ocular surface for a sufficient time period to aUow the compound to penetrate the corneal and internal regions of the eye, as for example the anterior chamber, posterior chamber, vitreous body, aqueous humor, vitreous humor, cornea, iris/ciliary, lens, choroid/retina and sclera. The pharmaceuticaUy-acceptable ophthalmic vehicle may, for example, be an ointment, vegetable oil or an encapsulating material. Alternatively, the compounds of the invention may be injected directly into the vitreous and aqueous humour. Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are preferably suppositories which may 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 room temperature Hquid at body temperature and therefore melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity and release the active compound. Compounds of the present invention may also be administered in the form of liposomes. As is known in the art, liposomes are generally derived from phosphohpids or other lipid substances. Liposomes are formed by mono- or multi-lamellar hydrated liquid crystals that are dispersed in an aqueous medium. Any non-toxic, physio logicaUy-acceptable and metabolizable lipid capable of forming Hposomes can be used. The present compositions in liposome form can contain, in addition to a compound of the present invention, stabUizers, preservatives, excipients, and the like. The preferred Hpids are the phosphohpids and the phosphatidyl cholines (lecithins), both natural and synthetic. Methods to form liposomes are known in the art. See, for example, Prescott, Ed., Methods in Cell Biology, Volume XIV, Academic Press, New York, N.Y. (1976), p. 33 etseq. While the compounds of the present invention can be administered as the sole active pharmaceutical agent, they may also be used in combination with one or more agents which are conventionally administered to patients for treating angiogenic diseases. For example, the compounds of the invention are effective over the short term to make tumors more sensitive to traditional cytotoxic therapies such as chemicals and radiation.

In general, methods for preparing compounds of the present invention comprise the sequential addition of one amino acid or suitably protected amino acid to another amino acid or a growing amino acid chain. TypicaUy, either the amino or carboxyl group of the first amino acid is protected by a suitable protecting group. The protected or derivatized amino acid can then be either attached to an inert solid support or utilized in solution by adding the next amino acid in the sequence having the complimentary (amino or carboxyl) group suitably protected, under conditions suitable for forming the amide linkage. The protecting group is then removed from this newly added amino acid residue and the next amino acid (suitably protected) is then added, and so forth. After all the desired amino acids have been linked in the proper sequence, any remaining protecting groups (and any soHd support) are removed sequentially or concurrently, to afford the final desired product. Solid phase synthesis incorporates amino acids protected by an acid or base sensitive group. Such protecting groups have the properties of being stable to the conditions of amide bond coupHng, whUe being readUy removable without destruction of the growing amino acid chain or racemization of any of the chiral centers contained therein. Suitable protecting groups are 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc), t-butoxycarbonyl (Boc), benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz), biphenylisopropyl-oxycarbonyl, t-amyloxycarbonyl, isobornyloxycarbonyl, (α,α)-dimethyl-3,5-dimethoxybenzyloxycarbonyl, O- nitrophenylsulfenyl, 2-cyano-t-butyloxycarbonyl, and the Hke. Side chain protecting groups are: for arginine: 2,2,5,7, 8-pentamethylchroman-6- sulfonyl (Pmc), and 2,2,4, 6,7-pentamethyldihydrobenzofuran-S-sulfonyl (Pbf); for asparagine: trityl (Trt); for glutamine: trityl (Trt); for lysine: t-butoxycarbonyl (Boc); for seryl: t-butyl (t-Bu); for threonine and allothreonine: t-butyl (t-Bu); for tryptophan: t- butoxycarbonyl (Boc); and for tyrosine: t-butyl (t-Bu). In the soHd phase method, the carboxy group of the amino acid is attached to a suitable solid support or resin. Suitable soHd supports useful for the above synthesis are those materials which are inert to the reagents and reaction conditions of the stepwise condensation-deprotection reactions, as well as being insoluble in the media used. The resin is deprotected using secondary amines such as piperidine when the soHd support protecting group is Fmoc. An amino acid is coupled to the resin using coupHng reagents such as O-benzotriazol-l-yl-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluroniumhexafluorophosphate (HBTU, 1 equiv.) with 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBT, 1 equiv.), or [O-(7-azabenzotriazol- l-yl)-l,l,3,3-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate] (HATU, 1 equiv.) with N- methylmorphoHne (1 equiv.) in a solvent such as DMF. Other reagents can be used to accomplish the coupHng, for example, N,N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), N,N'- dnsopropylcarbodiimide (DIC), [O-(7-azabenzotriazol- 1 -yl)- 1,1,3 ,3 -tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate] (HATU), or O-benzotriazol-l-yl-N,N,N',N'- tetramethyluroniumhexafluorophosphate (HBTU), with or without 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP), 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBT), N-methylmorpholine (NMM), benzotriazol-1- yloxy-tris(dimethylamino)phosphonium-hexafluorophosphate (BOP) or bis(2-oxo-3- oxazoHdinyl)phosphine chloride (BOPC1) The coupling reaction can be accomplishe in about 20 minutes to about 24 hours at a temperature of between 10 °C and 50 °C in a solvent such as dichloromethane or N,N-dimethylfbrmamide (DMF). The coupHng of successive protected amino acids can be carried out in a solid phase synthesizer as is well known in the art. Typically, Fmoc is removed from the nitrogen of the growing amino acid sequence by treatment with a secondary amine such as piperidine. Each protected amino acid is then introduced and the coupHng is carried out in a solvent such as DMF. The coupling agent is normally O-benzotriazol-l-yl-N,N,N',N'- tetramethyluroniumhexafluorophosphate (HBTU, 1 equiv.) or [O-(7-azabenzotriazol-l-yl)- 1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate] (HATU, 1 equiv.) in the presence of N- methylmorphoHne (NMM, 1 equiv.). At the end of the soHd phase synthesis, the resin is cleaved. Conditions necessary for cleavage, for example trifluoro acetic acid containing thianisole, water, or ethanedithiol, can result in deprotection of any remaining protecting groups. Once separated from the resin, compounds of the present invention are purified by chromatography including, but not Hmited to: ion exchange on a weakly basic resin in the acetate form; hydrophobic adsorption chromatography on underivitized polystyrene- divinylbenzene (for example, AMBERLITE® XAD); silica gel adsorption chromatography; ion exchange chromatography on carboxymethylcellulose; partition chromatography, e.g., on SEPHADEX® G-25, LH-20 or countercurrent distribution; high performance Hquid chromatography (HPLC), especially reverse-phase HPLC on octyl- or octadecylsilyl-silica bonded phase column packing. Purification can require one or more of the above techniques. Alternatively, the compounds of the present invention can be prepared without the use of soHd phase methodology. Amino acids can be coupled under conditions described herein except without the use of a resin.
