Definitions
- the present invention relates to novel polymer conjugates of K-252a and derivatives thereof and to their use for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition useful for the prevention, alleviation and treatment of kinase- associated pathologies.
- the present invention relates to the prevention, alleviation and treatment of H MGB 1 -associated pathologies.
- the invention relates to the use of the novel polymer conjugates of K-252a and derivatives thereof in the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition useful for the prevention, alleviation and treatment of neurological disorders, neuropathies and neurodegenerative disorders of the central and peripheral nervous system.
- the invention relates to the use of the polymer conjugates in the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition useful for the prevention, alleviation and treatment of dermal pathologies, in particular dermal pathologies associated with an excessive keratinocyte proliferation, in particular psoriasis.
- the invention relates to the use of the polymer conjugates in the prevention, alleviation and treatment of NGF-related pain. More specifically, the present invention relates to a polymer conjugate of K-252a and derivatives thereof, wherein the polymer is polyethylene glycol or methoxy-polyethylene glycol.
- K-252a is a lipophilic alkaloid for the first time isolated from Nocardiopsis sp soil fungi (WO 97/38120), having a indolocarbazole skeleton represented by the following formula:
- K-252a strongly inhibits protein kinase C (PKC), which plays a central role in regulating cell functions, and has various activities such as the action of inhibiting smooth muscle contraction (Jpn. 3. Pharmacol. 43(suppl.): 284, 1987), the action of inhibiting serotonin secretion (Yamada et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 144:35-40, 1987), the action of inhibiting elongation of neuraxone (Koizumi et al., J. Neurosci. Res.
- PKC protein kinase C
- K-252a has the activity of inhibiting IL-2 production.
- the complete synthesis of K-252a has been achieved (Wood et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 117:10413-10414, 1995) as well.
- Nerve growth factor is the best characterized neurotrophic and is required for normal development and function of certain sensory and cholinergic neurons (Levi-Montalcini, Annu. Rev. Neurosci. 5:341-362, 1982).
- the high-affinity neurotrophic receptors, trks comprise a family of proteins consisting of trk A, trk B, and trk C (Knusel et al., J. Neurochem. 59:715-722, 1992).
- Members of this receptor family are membrane-associated proteins that exhibit tyrosine kinase activity. Interaction of a neurotrophin ligand with trks induces phosphorylation of specific tyrosine residues on the receptor.
- K-252a is an inhibitor of several enzymes, including trks. Consistent with this effect, K-252a blocks NGF-mediated cell survival in some in vitro cell assays (Koizumi et al., J. Neurosci. 8:715-721 , 1988; Doherty et al., Neurosci. Lett. 96:1-6, 1989; Matsuda et al., Neurosci. Lett. 87:11-17, 1988), since it influences the phosphorylation state of trks.
- Keratinocytes a key cellular component both for homeostasis and pathophysiologic processes of the skin, secrete a number of cytokines and are stimulated by several growth factors.
- NGF is synthesized in the skin and significantly stimulates the proliferation of normal human keratinocytes in culture in a dose-dependent manner. This effect can be prevented by the addition of K-252a, which is a high-affinity NGF receptor (trk) specific inhibitor, thus suggesting that NGF effect on human keratinocytes is mediated by the high-affinity NGF receptor. So NGF could act as a cytokine in human skin and take part in disorders of keratinocyte proliferation (Pincelli et al., J. Invest. Dermatol.
- NGF neurotrophic factor
- NGF has a crucial role in the generation of pain and hyperalgesia in several acute and chronic pain states.
- the expression of NGF is high in injured and inflamed tissues, and activation of the NGF receptor tyrosine kinase TrkA on nociceptive neurons triggers and potentiates pain signaling by multiple mechanisms.
- NGF antagonism is expected to be a highly effective therapeutic approach in many pain states, and to be free of the adverse effects of traditional analgesic drugs [Hefti FF et al. Trends Pharmacol. ScL (2006) 27:85-91].
- Evidence indicates that TrkA receptors are required for the nociceptive actions of NGF.
- K-252a inhibits Trk signaling with high potency and attenuates hypersensitivity in an animal model of pancreatic pain [Winston JH et al. J. Pain (2003) 4:329- 337].
- K-252a lacks selectivity for TrkA since it is a potent inhibitor for several kinases. This means that K-252a is likely to have many adverse effects that are unrelated to inhibition of TrkA.
- the patent application WO 2005/014003 describes the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors of microbial origin belonging to the K-252 family to prepare topical medicaments able to inhibit the excessive keratinocyte proliferation characteristic of disorders such as psoriasis and skin tumors.
- HMGB1 is a pro-inflammatory chemokine released by necrotic or dying cells, leading to an inflammatory cytokine cascade in several human pathologies.
- the above mentioned US Patent Applications describe the novel use of K-252a and derivatives thereof as therapeutic agent for the prevention and treatment of restenosis.
- K-252a has in fact the ability of blocking/inhibiting HMGB1 -induced arterial smooth muscle cell migration and proliferation, events that are both at the basis of restenosis formation.
- K-252a and derivatives thereof are loaded as surface-coating by binding, embedding or adsorbing on a medical device, in particular on a stent, in order to have the active agent released in situ.
- K-252a In addition to K-252a itself, various derivatives of K-252a have been synthesized and tested for biological activity. As an example, CEP1347, a K252a derivative, retains neuroprotective properties but does not inhibit TrkA. CEP1347 has been shown to directly inhibit MAPKKKs, including MLK3 (Roux et al., J. Biol. Chem. 277:49473-49480, 2002). Another K-252a derivative, KT5926, has been investigated against vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) replication in BHK-21 cells (Kim et al., Biol. Pharm. Bull. 21 :498-505, 1998). It is known that K-252a analogs with conservative substitutions at C3 1 retain potency against a range of kinases (Schneider et al., Org. Lett. 7:1695-1698, 2005).
- VSV vesicular stomatitis virus
- the efficacy of systemically administered drugs may be hampered in vivo by factors such as poor solubility at physiologic pH and rapid elimination by glomerular filtration, cellular clearance and metabolism. In many cases, such disadvantageous effects prevent an effective therapeutic use of such agents.
- a successful strategy for improving both efficacy and duration of the agents' effects and for reducing potential toxicologic effects is the covalent binding of a biologically active agent to diverse polymers.
- One of the polymers that is most often used for improving the pharmacologic and toxicologic properties of an active agent is the polyalkylenoxide polyethylene gylcol, PEG in short.
- PEG Polyethylene glycol
- PEG derivatives have been widely used in covalent attachment (i.e., "PEGylation") to proteins in order to reduce immunogenicity, proteolysis and kidney clearance and to enhance solubility (Zalipsky, Adv. Drug Del. Rev. 16:157-182, 1995).
- PEG has been attached to low molecular weight, relatively hydrophobic drugs in order to reduce toxicity, alter biodistribution, and enhance solubility.
- Pegylated pharmaceuticals may be more effective than their unmodified parent drugs by virtue of the properties of PEG that are transferred to the conjugates (Molineux, Pharmacotherapy 23:3S-8S, 2003).
- the aim of the present invention was to exploit the peculiar characteristics of some polymers, in particular of polyethylene glycol (PEG) in order to develop therapeutically useful administration forms of members of the indolocarbazole family. It was the aim of the inventors of the invention to obtain through the PEG modification an improved pharmacokinetic and toxicologic performance of the polymer conjugated indolocarbazole compound. Moreover, a change in the activity and/or toxicity profile of the new conjugated compounds was the focus of the invention, too.
- PEG polyethylene glycol
- One of the specific problems underlying the present invention was to exploit the peculiar characteristics of some polymers, in particular of PEG, in order to develop administration forms of K-252a which permit an improved pharmacokinetic and toxicologic performance, achieving the best bioavailability of K-252a or of its derivative in the various possible application routes.
- the problem was to exploit the characteristics of the polymer in order to achieve, in case of a topical administration, a decreased absorption of K-252a or its derivatives and therefore a reduction and even elimination of possible systemic toxicity and/or side effects.
- the present invention is therefore directed to novel polymer conjugates of members of the indolocarbazole compounds and in particular of K-252a or of derivatives thereof, their preparation and their use, wherein the polymer conjugate has an increased water solubility, an improved pharmaceutical manageability, an improved pharmacokinetic and bioavailability and/or a decreased toxicity and/or immunogenicity in comparison to the non-conjugated indolocarbazole compounds or to the K-252a compound or derivatives thereof.
- the present invention is directed to a polymer conjugate of K-252a or of derivatives thereof, their preparation and their use, wherein, after topical administration, the systemic absorption is limited and therefore the systemic toxicity and/or side-effects are reduced or even eliminated.

- mice were then sacrificed respectively 5 after 30 or 60 minutes under ether anaesthesia and the blood was collected from the ventral aorta with the insulin syringe (approx. 1 mL/animal). The blood was then transferred to an Eppendorf containing 50 ⁇ L of an aqueous solution of EDTA 5 %. The blood samples were then centrifugated at 2000 g for 5 minutes in a refrigerated (4 0 C) centrifuge, purified by solid phase extraction o (SPE) and subsequently analyzed through HPLC quantitative analysis (RT- HPLC analysis with XTerra C18 column, eluent water/ACN).
- SPE solid phase extraction o
- the plasma samples of the mice treated with K-252a showed a certain plasma concentration for both contact periods.
- the results are shown in figure 4, from which it can be gained that the average plasma concentration of K-252a in the mice of group 1 , sacrificed after 30 minutes, was 23,33 ⁇ g/mL, while the average plasma concentration of K-252a in the mice of group 2, sacrificed after 60, was 42,11 ⁇ g/ml.
- This shows the occurrence of a systemic adsorption for dermal administration of K-252a.
- the plasmatic samples of the mice treated with dermal administration of the pegylated conjugate K-252a- PEG(2K) did not show any plasmatic concentration of the active compound even after 60 minutes of contact period.
- PK study in mice dermal single dose and repeated administrations of CT327 versus K-252a
- the purpose of this experiment was to evaluate the kinetic of adsorption of CT327 in comparison with K-252a following dermal administration of the two compounds in mice after a single administration as well as the comparative kinetic of the two test compounds after repeated dermal administrations.
- mice mice (Balb/c males, 7-9 weeks old, Charles River Italia, average body weight of 22.2-22.4 g); 5 experimental groups (control, single and repeated administration of K-252a, single and repeated administration of CT327), 4 animals/group, randomly grouped.
