Definitions

  • Non-steroidal progesterone receptor modulators are provided.
  • the present invention relates to non-steroidal progesterone receptor modulators, to a process for their preparation, to the use of the progesterone receptor modulators for producing medicaments, and to pharmaceutical compositions which comprise these compounds.
  • the steroid hormone progesterone controls in a decisive manner the reproductive process in the female body.
  • Progesterone is secreted in large quantities during the cycle and pregnancy respectively by the ovary and the placenta.
  • Progesterone in cooperation with oestrogens brings about cyclic changes in the uterine mucosa
  • progesterone controls the relaxation of the myometrium and maintains the function of the decidual tissue.
  • progesterone inhibits endometrial proliferation by suppressing oestrogen-mediated mitosis in uterine tissue (K. Chwalisz, R. M. Brenner, U. Fuhrmann, H. Hess-Stumpp, W. Elger, Steroids 65, 2000, 741-751).
  • Progesterone and progesterone receptors are also known to play a significant part in pathophysiological processes. Progesterone receptors have been detected in the foci of endometriosis, but also in tumours of the uterus, of the breast and of the CNS. It is further known that uterine leiomyomas grow progesterone-dependently.
  • progesterone in the tissues of the genital organs and in other tissues occur through interactions with progesterone receptors which are responsible for the cellular effects.
  • Progesterone receptor modulators are either pure agonists or inhibit the effect of progesterone partly or completely. Accordingly, substances are defined as pure agonists, partial agonists (SPRMs) and pure antagonists.
  • progesterone receptor modulators In accordance with ability of progesterone receptor modulators to influence the effect of the progesterone receptor, these compounds have a considerable potential as therapeutic agents for gynaecological and oncological indications and for obstetrics and fertility control.
  • progesterone receptor antagonists completely inhibit the effect of progesterone on the progesterone receptor. They have anti-ovulatory properties and the ability to inhibit oestrogen effects in the endometrium, as far as complete atrophy. They are therefore particularly suitable for intervening in the female reproductive process, e.g. post- ovulation, in order to prevent nidation, during pregnancy in order to increase the reactivity of the uterus to prostaglandins or oxytocin, or in order to achieve opening and softening ("ripening") of the cervix, and to induce a great readiness of myometrium to contract.
  • post- ovulation in order to prevent nidation, during pregnancy in order to increase the reactivity of the uterus to prostaglandins or oxytocin, or in order to achieve opening and softening ("ripening") of the cervix, and to induce a great readiness of myometrium to contract.
  • a beneficial effect on the pathological event is expected in foci of endometriosis and in tumour tissues which are equipped with progesterone receptors after administration of pure progesterone receptor antagonists.
  • There might be particular advantages for influencing pathological states such as endometriosis or uterine leiomyomas if ovulation inhibition can additionally be achieved by the progesterone receptor antagonists.
  • Ovulation inhibition also dispenses with some of the ovarian hormone production and thus the stimulating effect, deriving from this proportion, on the pathologically altered tissue.
  • RU 486 The first progesterone receptor antagonist described, RU 486 (also mifepristone), was followed by a large number of analogues with progesterone receptor-antagonistic activity of varying strength. Whereas RU 486 shows an antiglucocorticoid effect in addition to the progesterone receptor-antagonistic effect, compounds synthesized later are notable in particular for a more selective effect as progesterone receptor antagonists.
  • the antiglucocorticoid activity is disadvantageous for therapeutic use, where the inhibition of progesterone receptors is at the forefront of the therapy.
  • An antiglucocorticoid activity causes unwanted side effects at the dosages necessary for therapy. This may prevent administration of a therapeutically worthwhile dose or lead to discontinuation of the treatment.
  • Partial or complete reduction of the antiglucocorticoid properties is therefore an important precondition for therapy with progesterone receptor antagonists, especially for those indications requiring treatment lasting weeks or months.
  • SPRMs partial progesterone receptor agonists
  • SPRMs partial progesterone receptor agonists

Description

Non-steroidal progesterone receptor modulators
The present invention relates to non-steroidal progesterone receptor modulators, to a process for their preparation, to the use of the progesterone receptor modulators for producing medicaments, and to pharmaceutical compositions which comprise these compounds.
The steroid hormone progesterone controls in a decisive manner the reproductive process in the female body. Progesterone is secreted in large quantities during the cycle and pregnancy respectively by the ovary and the placenta. Progesterone in cooperation with oestrogens brings about cyclic changes in the uterine mucosa
(endometrium) during the menstrual cycle. Elevated progesterone levels after ovulation influence the uterine mucosa to convert it into a state permitting nidation of an embryo (blastocyst). During pregnancy, progesterone controls the relaxation of the myometrium and maintains the function of the decidual tissue.
It is further known that progesterone inhibits endometrial proliferation by suppressing oestrogen-mediated mitosis in uterine tissue (K. Chwalisz, R. M. Brenner, U. Fuhrmann, H. Hess-Stumpp, W. Elger, Steroids 65, 2000, 741-751).
Progesterone and progesterone receptors are also known to play a significant part in pathophysiological processes. Progesterone receptors have been detected in the foci of endometriosis, but also in tumours of the uterus, of the breast and of the CNS. It is further known that uterine leiomyomas grow progesterone-dependently.
The effects of progesterone in the tissues of the genital organs and in other tissues occur through interactions with progesterone receptors which are responsible for the cellular effects.
Progesterone receptor modulators are either pure agonists or inhibit the effect of progesterone partly or completely. Accordingly, substances are defined as pure agonists, partial agonists (SPRMs) and pure antagonists.
In accordance with ability of progesterone receptor modulators to influence the effect of the progesterone receptor, these compounds have a considerable potential as therapeutic agents for gynaecological and oncological indications and for obstetrics and fertility control.
Pure progesterone receptor antagonists completely inhibit the effect of progesterone on the progesterone receptor. They have anti-ovulatory properties and the ability to inhibit oestrogen effects in the endometrium, as far as complete atrophy. They are therefore particularly suitable for intervening in the female reproductive process, e.g. post- ovulation, in order to prevent nidation, during pregnancy in order to increase the reactivity of the uterus to prostaglandins or oxytocin, or in order to achieve opening and softening ("ripening") of the cervix, and to induce a great readiness of myometrium to contract.
A beneficial effect on the pathological event is expected in foci of endometriosis and in tumour tissues which are equipped with progesterone receptors after administration of pure progesterone receptor antagonists. There might be particular advantages for influencing pathological states such as endometriosis or uterine leiomyomas if ovulation inhibition can additionally be achieved by the progesterone receptor antagonists. Ovulation inhibition also dispenses with some of the ovarian hormone production and thus the stimulating effect, deriving from this proportion, on the pathologically altered tissue.
The first progesterone receptor antagonist described, RU 486 (also mifepristone), was followed by a large number of analogues with progesterone receptor-antagonistic activity of varying strength. Whereas RU 486 shows an antiglucocorticoid effect in addition to the progesterone receptor-antagonistic effect, compounds synthesized later are notable in particular for a more selective effect as progesterone receptor antagonists.
Besides steroidal compounds such as onapristone or lilopristone, which are notable by comparison with RU 486 for a better dissociation of the progesterone receptor- antagonistic effect and the antiglucocorticoid effect, also known from the literature are various non-steroidal structures whose antagonistic effect on the progesterone receptor is being investigated [see, for example, S. A. Leonhardt and D. P. Edwards, Exp. Biol.
Med. 227: 969-980 (2002) and R. Winneker, A. Fensome, J. E. Wrobel, Z. Zhang, P.
Zhang, Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, Volume 23: 46-57 (2005)]. However, compounds disclosed to date have only moderate antagonistic activity compared with the known steroidal structures. The most effective non-steroidal compounds are reported to have in vitro activities which are 10% of the activity of RU 486.
The antiglucocorticoid activity is disadvantageous for therapeutic use, where the inhibition of progesterone receptors is at the forefront of the therapy. An antiglucocorticoid activity causes unwanted side effects at the dosages necessary for therapy. This may prevent administration of a therapeutically worthwhile dose or lead to discontinuation of the treatment.
Partial or complete reduction of the antiglucocorticoid properties is therefore an important precondition for therapy with progesterone receptor antagonists, especially for those indications requiring treatment lasting weeks or months.
In contrast to the pure antagonists, partial progesterone receptor agonists (SPRMs) show a residual agonistic property which may vary in strength. This leads to these substances showing potentially agonistic effects on the progesterone receptor in certain organ systems (D. DeManno, W. Elger, R. Garg, R. Lee, B. Schneider, H. Hess- Stumpp, G. Schuber, K. Chwalisz, Steroids 68, 2003, 1019-1032). Such an organ- specific and dissociated effect may be of therapeutic benefit for the described indications.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide further non-steroidal progesterone receptor modulators. These compounds are intended to have a reduced antiglucocorticoid effect and therefore be suitable for the therapy and prophylaxis of gynaecological disorders such as endometriosis, leiomyomas of the uterus, dysfunctional bleeding and dysmenorrhoea. The compounds according to the invention are additionally intended to be suitable for the therapy and prophylaxis of hormone- dependent tumours, for example of breast, endometrial, ovarian and prostate carcinomas. The compounds are intended furthermore to be suitable for use in female fertility control and for female hormone replacement therapy.
The object is achieved according to the present invention by the provision of nonsteroidal compounds of the general formula I

and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts. The compounds according to the invention of the general formula I may, owing to the presence of centres of asymmetry, exist as different stereoisomers. Both the racemates and the separate stereoisomers belong to the subject matter of the present invention.
The present invention further includes the novel compounds as active pharmaceutical ingredients, the preparation thereof, their therapeutic use and pharmaceutical dosage forms which comprise the novel substances.
The compounds according to the invention of the general formula (I) or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be used to produce a medicament, in particular for the treatment and prophylaxis of gynaecological disorders such as endometriosis, leiomyomas of the uterus, dysfunctional bleeding and dysmenorrhoea. The compounds according to the invention may further be used for the treatment and prophylaxis of hormone-dependent tumours such as, for example, for breast, prostate and endometrial carcinoma.
The compounds according to the invention of the general formula (I) or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are suitable for use for female fertility control or for female hormone replacement therapy.
The present invention additionally relates to a process for preparing the compounds of the general formula (I). The substituent R3 is introduced by selective addition reaction of organometallic compounds such as lithium alkynyls or magnesium haloalkynyls onto a keto group. This leads either directly or after carrying out further modificiations to the compounds according to the invention of the general formula (I).
Figure imgf000008_0001
The compounds according to the invention are prepared by selective addition of organometallic compounds onto keto amides which have been described for example in the published specifications US 2002/0077356, US 6,323, 199B1 , WO 200375915 and WO 9854159. The organometallic compounds may be for example lithium alkynyl or magnesium haloalkynyl compounds. These are generated for example by reacting the appropriate alkynes with butyllithium or Grignard compounds. The corresponding organometallic alkenyl compounds can also be prepared in analogy thereto. The reactivity of the keto groups is in this case distinctly higher by comparison with the amide carbonyl and with the benzoxazinone, so that a selective addition is achieved on suitable choice of the reaction conditions. Alternatively, the alkynyl or alkenyl radicals introduced as R3 can also be further modified later. Reactions suitable for these modifications are those known to the skilled person, such as oxidation, reduction, substitution, alkylation, palladium-catalysed reaction. Any protective groups present are eliminated at a suitable time.
The non-steroidal compounds according to the invention of the general formula I have strong antagonistic or strong partial agonistic effects on the progesterone receptor. They show a strong dissociation of effects in relation to their strength of binding to the progesterone receptor and to the glucocorticoid receptor. Whereas known progesterone receptor antagonists such as mifepristone (RU 486) show, besides the desired high binding affinity for the progesterone receptor, likewise a high affinity for the glucocorticoid receptor, the compounds according to the invention are notable for a very low glucocorticoid receptor binding with simultaneously a high progesterone receptor affinity.
The substituents, defined as groups, of the compounds according to the invention of the general formula I may in each case have the following meanings:
C1-C5-, C1-C6- and C1-C8-alkyl group means linear or nonlinear, branched or unbranched alkyl radicals. Examples thereof are a methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-, iso-, tert-butyl, an n-pentyl, 2,2-dimethylpropyl, 3-methylbutyl, hexyl, heptyl or octyl group.

Examples of heterocycloalkyl are morpholinyl, tetrahydrofuranyl, pyranyl, piperazinyl, piperidinyl, pyrrolidinyl, oxiranyl, oxetanyl, aziridinyl, dioxolanyl and dioxanyl. In this connection, the position of the heteroatom in relation to the point of linkage can be any chemically possible position.

Of these, preference is given in particular to the trifluoromethyl or pentafluoroethyl group and, partly fluorinated alkyl groups, for example the 5,5,5,4,4- pentafluoropentyl or 5,5,5,4,4,3,3-heptafluoropentyl group.
A halogen atom may be a fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine atom. Fluorine, chlorine or bromine is preferred here.
If R1 and R2 form together with the C atom of the chain a 3-7 membered ring, this is for example a cyclopropyl, -butyl, -pentyl or -hexyl ring. The cyclopropyl and the cyclopentyl ring are preferred.
The mono- or bicyclic carbocyclic aromatic ring A, which may be substituted more than once, is a carbocyclic or heterocyclic aryl radical.
In the former case it is for example a phenyl or naphthyl radical, preferably a phenyl radical.
It is possible to use as heterocyclic radical for example a monocyclic heterocyclic radical, for example the thienyl, furyl, pyranyl, pyrrolyl, imidazolyl, pyrazolyl, pyridyl, pyrazinyl, pyrimidinyl, pyridazinyl, thiazolyl, oxazolyl, furazanyl, pyrrolinyl, imidazolinyl, pyrazolinyl, thiazolinyl, triazolyl, tetrazolyl radical, in particular all the possible isomers in relation to the positions of the heteroatoms.

In the case where the compounds of the general formula I (B = -CH2-) are in the form of salts, this is possible for example in the form of the hydrochloride, sulphate, nitrate, tartrate, citrate, fumarate, succinate or benzoate.
If the compounds according to the invention are in the form of racemic mixtures, they can be fractionated by methods of racemate resolution familiar to the skilled person into the pure optically active forms. For example, the racemic mixtures can be separated into the pure isomers by chromatography on a support material which is itself optically active (CHIRALPAK AD®). It is also possible to esterify the free hydroxy group in a racemic compound of the general formula I with an optically active acid, and to separate the resulting diastereoisomeric esters by fractional crystallization or chromatography and to hydrolyse the separated esters in each case to the optically pure isomers. It is possible to use as optically active acid for example mandelic acid, camphorsulphonic acid or tartaric acid.
The compounds specified below, and the use thereof, are preferred according to the invention:

Biological characterization of the compounds according to the invention
Progesterone receptor modulators can be identified with the aid of simple methods, test programmes known to the skilled person. It is possible for this purpose for example to incubate a compound to be tested together with a progestogen in a test system for progesterone receptors and to check whether the effect mediated by progesterone is altered in the presence of the modulator in this test system.
The substances according to the invention of the general formula I were tested in the following models:
Progesterone receptor-binding assay
Measurement of the receptor binding affinity:
The receptor binding affinity was determined by competitive binding of a specifically binding 3H-labelled hormone (tracer) and of the compound to be tested on receptors in the cytosol from animal target organs. The aim in this case was receptor saturation and reaction equilibrium.
The tracer and increasing concentrations of the compound to be tested (competitor) were coincubated at 0-40C for 18 h with the receptor-containing cytosol fraction. After removal of unbound tracer with carbon-dextran suspension, the receptor-bound tracer content was measured for each concentration, and the IC50 was determined from the concentration series. The relative molar binding affinity (RBA) was calculated as ratio of the IC50 values for reference substance and compound to be tested (x 100%) (RBA of the reference substance = 100%).
The following incubation conditions were chosen for the receptor types:
Progesterone receptor:
Uterus cytosol of the estradiol-primed rabbit, homogenized in TED buffer (20 mMTris/HCI, pH 7.4; 1 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetate, 2 mM dithiothreitol) with 250 mM sucrose; stored at -3O0C. Tracer: 3H-ORG 2058, 5 nM; reference substance: progesterone.
Glucocorticoid receptor:
Thymus cytosol from the adrenalectomized rat, thymi stored at -300C; buffer: TED. Tracer: 3H-dexamethasone, 20 nM; reference substance: dexamethasone. The relative receptor binding affinities (RBA values) for the compounds according to the invention of the general formula (I) on the progesterone receptor are between 3 and 100% relative to progesterone. The RBA values at the glucocorticoid receptor are in the range from 3 to 30% relative to dexamethasone.
The compounds according to the invention accordingly have a high affinity for the progesterone receptor, but only a low affinity for the glucocorticoid receptor.
Antagonism at the PR-B progesterone receptor
The transactivation assay is carried out as described in WO 02/054064.
Agonism on the PR-B progesterone receptor
The transactivation assay is carried out as described in Fuhrmann et al. (Fuhrmann U., Hess-Stump H., Cleve A., Neef G., Schwede W., Hoffmann J., Fritzemeier K.-H., Chwalisz K., Journal of Medicinal Chem, 43, 26, 2000, 5010-5016).
