Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the preparations of positively charged and water- soluble pro-drugs of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds and their medicinal use in treating any retinoids and retinoid-like compounds-treatable conditions in humans or animals. More specifically, the present invention is to enable quick skin penetration of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds
  • Retinoids are a class of compounds consisting of four isoprenoid units joined in a head to tail manner.
  • the retinoids include all-trans-retinoic acid (tretinoin), cis- isomeric retinoic acids, e.g., 13-cis-retinoic acid (isotretinoin) , 9-cis-retinoic acid (alitretinoin), vitamin A (retinol), 4-[l-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamet hyl- 2-naphthalenyl) ethenyl]benzoic acid (bexarotene, Targretin ®), retinal, retiferol, (E,E,E)-7-(2-n-propoxy-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-3-yl)-6-fluo ro-3-methylocta-2,4,6
  • the retinoids are essential for many of life's processes including vision, reproduction, metabolism, differentiation, bone development, and pattern formation during embryogenesis.
  • Vitamin A (retinol) and retinal are in chemical equilibrium in the body and have equivalent antixe- rophthalmic acitivity.
  • Retinol combines with opsin, the rod pigment in the retina, to form rhodopsin, which is necessary for visual adaptation to darkness.
  • Vitamin A deficiency is characterized by nyctalopia, keratomalacia, keratinization and drying of skin, lowered resistance to infection, retardation of growth, thickening of bone, d iminished production of cortical steroids, and fetal malformations (PDR Generics, 1996, second edition, Medical Economics, Montvale, New Jersey, pg 3094).
  • Topical tretinoin all-trans-retinoic acid
  • Tretinoin is indicated for topical application in the treatment of acne vulgaris, photoaging, hyper- pigmented macules (liver spot) and premature wrinkles, drug-induced photosensitivity, psoriasis, epidermal wound healing, xerophthalmia, keloids, hyperkeratotic skin disease (PDR Generics, 1996, second edition, Medical Economics, Montvale, New Jersey, pg 2981). Isotretinoin inhibits sebaceous gland function and keratinization.
  • Isotretinoin is indicated for the treatment of severe recalcitrant cystic acne, basal cell carcinoma, cervical cancer, mycosis fungoides (cutaneous T-cell lymphoma), Darier's disease, lamellar ichthyosis, pityriasis rubra pilaris, herpes simplex infections, Grover's disease, lichen planus, refractory rosacea, keratosis palmaris et plantaris, leukoplakia, squamous cell skin cancer, and xeroderma pigmentosum.
  • mycosis fungoides cutaneous T-cell lymphoma
  • Darier's disease lamellar ichthyosis
  • pityriasis rubra pilaris herpes simplex infections
  • Grover's disease lichen planus
  • refractory rosacea keratosis palmaris et plantaris
  • leukoplakia
  • Alitretinoin (9-cw-retinoic acid) is a naturally-occurring endogenous retinoid that binds to and activates all known intracellular retinoid receptor subtypes (RAR, RAR, RAR, RXR, RXR , and RXR). Once activated these receptors function as transcription factors that regulate the expression of genes that control the process of cellular differentiation and proliferation in both normal and neoplastic cells.
  • Alitretinoin inhibits the growth of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) cells in vitro. Alitretinoin is used for the treatment of Kaposi's sarcoma and myelodysplastic syndromes.
  • Retiferol derivatives are used for the treatment of hy- perproliferative skin diseases such as psoriasis, basal cell carcinomas, disorders of keratinization and keratosis, neoplastic diseases, disorders of the sebaceous glands such as acne and seborrhoic dermatitis, the conditions associated with photodamage, the skin damaged through sun exposure, the effects of wrinkling, elastosis and premature ageing (Hilpert , et al., U.S. Pat. No. 6437142 ).
  • Adapalene is used for the topical treatment of acne vulgaris.
  • Acyclic retiniods are used for prevention of second primary tumors (Yasutoshi Muto, et al., the New England Journal of Medicine, 340, 1046 (1999)).
  • (E,E,E)-7-(2-n-propoxy-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-3-yl )-6-fluoro-3-methylocta-2,4,6-trienoic acid may be used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and other metabolic disorders (Deng T, et al., Biol. Pharm. Bull. 28(7), 1192, 2005).
  • Targretin® oral formulation is used for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), head and neck carcinoma, systemic Kaposi's sarcoma, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, and renal cell cancer.
  • CTCL cutaneous T-cell lymphoma
  • Topical Targretin is used for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL).
  • Topical drug delivery has several advantages. This method helps to avoid inactivation of a drug caused by first pass metabolism in the liver and gastro-intestinal tract. It can provide local delivery of appropriate concentrations of a drug to the intended site of action without systemic exposure.
  • Fishman (Fishman; Robert, U.S. Pat. No. 7,052,715) indicated that an additional problem associated with oral medications, is that the concentration levels which must be achieved in the bloodstream must be significant in order to effectively treat distal areas of pain or inflammation. These levels are often much higher than would be necessary if it were possible to accurately target the particular site of pain or injury. Yeager tried to use penetration enhancer to deliver PGE for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction (Yeager, James L.
  • Retinoids and retinoid-like compounds are used to treat a variety of health conditions including acne, photoaging, psoriasis, ichthyosis, hair loss, and various cancers.
  • retinoids and retinoid-like compounds are too lipophilic and practically insoluble in water.
  • the membranes are bilayers, with the hydrophilic head groups facing outward into the aqueous regions on either side.
  • Retinoids can enter the lipophilic membrane, but they will stay in the lipophilic layer as part of the membrane due to their similarities and cannot efficiently enter the cytosol on the inside of cell.
  • retinoids are extremely sensitive to UV light, air, and oxidizing agents. After topical application of retinoids, they enter the membrane, but do not go into the inside of a cell.
  • the sunlight, air, or oxidizing agent will induce retinoids' chemical reactions and cause skin redness, burning sensation, peeling, cracking, blistering, or itching.
  • the first pass metabolism which refers to the chemical breakdown of compounds in the liver and gastro-intestinal tract, can destroy and inactivate them in a few minutes. Oral administration of retinoids creates unnecessary systemic exposure and causes many side effects.
  • This invention relates to the design and preparation of novel positively charged pro-drugs of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds and their medicinal use.
  • the prodrugs of 9-cis-retinoic acid (alitretinoin), 13-cis-retinoic acid (isotretinoin) , all- trans-retinoic acid (tretinoin) , vitamin A (retinol), retiferol, adapalene, acyclic retiniod, and retinoid-like compounds have the general formula (1 to 27) 'Structure 1 to 27':

  • the goal of this invention is to make retinoinds and related compounds ad- ministrable transdermally (topical application) by increasing their solubility in the moisture available on the skin surface and their penetration rate through the membrane and skin barrier.
  • These novel pro-drugs of retinoids and related compounds have two structural features in common: they have a lipophilic portion and a primary, secondary, or tertiary amine group that exists in the protonated form (hydrophilic part) at physiological pH. Such a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance is required for efficient passage through the membrane barrier [Susan Milosovich, et al., J. Pharm. Sci., 82, 227(1993)].
  • the positively charged amino groups largely increase the solubility of the drugs in water.
  • the lowest or rate-limiting step in the sequence is the dissolution of the drug.
  • Retinoids and related compounds have a very low solubility in the moisture available on the skin surface, and they will not pass across the barrier of skin in a molecular form efficiently. When they enter the membranes of the skin, they will stay there as part of the membrane due to their similarities and cannot efficiently enter the cytosol, a semi-liquid concentrated aqueous solution or suspension on the inside of the cell.
  • a dosage form such as a solution, spray, lotion, ointment, emulsion or gel, they will dissolve in the moisture available on the skin surface immediately.
  • the positive charge on the amino groups of these pro-drugs will bond to the negative charge on the phosphate head group of a membrane.
  • the local concentration of the outside of the membrane will be very high and will facilitate the passage of these pro-drugs from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
  • the hydrophilic part will push the pro-drug into the cytosol. Due to the short stay outside the membranes of the skin, the pro-drugs will not cause burning, pain, itching, or swelling of the skin and the skin will be not sensitive to sun light.
  • the penetration rates of these prodrugs through human skin were measured in vitro by using modified Franz cells, which were isolated from human skin tissue (360-400 ⁇ m thick) of the anterior and posterior thigh areas.
  • the receiving fluid consisted of 2 ml of 2% bovine serum albumin in normal saline and was stirred at 600 rpm.
  • the cumulative amounts of these prodrugs and their parent drugs penetrating the skin versus time were determined by a specific high-performance liquid chromatography method.
  • the results using a donor consisting of either a 5% solution of some of the prodrugs of retinoids or a 5% suspension of retinoids in 0.2mL of the mixture of ethanol and pH 7.4-phosphate buffer (0.2M) (v/v, 70/30) are shown in Figure 1.

Abstract

The novel positively charged pro-drugs of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds in the general formula (31) 'Structure 31' were designed and synthesized. The compounds of the general formula (31) 'Structure 31' indicated above can be prepared from retinoic acids and related compounds, by reaction with suitable alcohols, thiols, or amines and coupling reagents, such as N, N'-Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, N,N'-Diisopropylcarbodiimide, O- (Benzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluronium tetrafluoroborate, O- (Benzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate, Benzotriazol- 1-yl-oxy-tris(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate, et al. The positively charged amino groups of these pro-drugs not only largely increases the solubility of the drugs in water, but also bonds to the negative charge on the phosphate head group of membranes. This bonding will disturb the membrane a little bit and may make some room for the lipophilic portion of the prodrug. When the molecules of membrane move, the membrane may 'crack' a little bit due to the bonding of the prodrug. This will let the prodrug insert into the membrane. At pH 7.4, only about 99% of amino group is protonated. When the amino group is not protonated, the bonding between the amino group of the prodrug and the phosphate head group of membrane will disassociate, and the prodrug will enter the membrane completely. When the amino group of the prodrug flips to the other side of the membrane and thus become protonated, then the prodrug is pulled into the cytosol, a semi-liquid concentrated aqueous solution or suspension. The results suggest that the pro-drugs diffuse through human skin -350 times faster than do retinoids and retinoid-like compounds. In plasma, more than 90% of these pro-drugs can change back to the parent drugs in a few minutes. The prodrugs can be used medicinally in treating any retinoids and retinoid-like compounds-treatable conditions in humans or animals. The prodrugs can be administered transdermally for any kind of medical treatments and avoid most of the side effects of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds. Controlled transdermal administration systems of the prodrug enables retinoids and retinoid-like compounds to reach constantly optimal therapeutic blood levels to increase effectiveness and reduce the side effects of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds. Another great benefit of transdermal administration of these pro-drugs is that administering medication, especially to children, will be much easier.

POSITIVELY CHARGED WATER-SOLUBLE PRODRUGS OF RETINOIDS AND RETINOID-LIKE COMPOUNDS WITH VERY
HIGH SKIN PENETRATION RATES
Technical Field
[1] The present invention relates to the preparations of positively charged and water- soluble pro-drugs of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds and their medicinal use in treating any retinoids and retinoid-like compounds-treatable conditions in humans or animals. More specifically, the present invention is to enable quick skin penetration of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds
Background Art
[2] Retinoids are a class of compounds consisting of four isoprenoid units joined in a head to tail manner. The retinoids include all-trans-retinoic acid (tretinoin), cis- isomeric retinoic acids, e.g., 13-cis-retinoic acid (isotretinoin) , 9-cis-retinoic acid (alitretinoin), vitamin A (retinol), 4-[l-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamet hyl- 2-naphthalenyl) ethenyl]benzoic acid (bexarotene, Targretin ®), retinal, retiferol, (E,E,E)-7-(2-n-propoxy-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-3-yl)-6-fluo ro-3-methylocta-2,4,6-trienoic acid, adapalene (6-[3-(l-adamantyl)-4-methoxyphenyl] - 2-naphthoic acid), acyclic retiniod [(2E, 4E, 6E, 10E)-3, 7, 11, 15-tetramethy-2,4,6, 10,14-hexadecapentaenoic acid] , ethyl(E,E,E)-7-(2-n-propoxy-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen- 3-yl)-6-fluoro-3-methylocta-2,4,6-trienoate, and their derivatives, both natural and synthetic. Various synthetic retinoids and retinoid-like compounds having retinoid activity are described in various patents ( U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,648,563; 5,648,385; 5,618,839; 5,559,248; 5,616,712; 5,616,597; 5,602,135; 5,599,819; 5,556,996; 5,534,516; 5,516,904; 5,498,755; 5,470,999; 5,468,879; 5,455,265; 5,451,605; 5,426,118; 5,407,937; 5,399,586; 5,399,561; 5,391,753 ). The retinoids are essential for many of life's processes including vision, reproduction, metabolism, differentiation, bone development, and pattern formation during embryogenesis. Vitamin A (retinol) and retinal are in chemical equilibrium in the body and have equivalent antixe- rophthalmic acitivity. Retinol combines with opsin, the rod pigment in the retina, to form rhodopsin, which is necessary for visual adaptation to darkness. Vitamin A deficiency is characterized by nyctalopia, keratomalacia, keratinization and drying of skin, lowered resistance to infection, retardation of growth, thickening of bone, d iminished production of cortical steroids, and fetal malformations (PDR Generics, 1996, second edition, Medical Economics, Montvale, New Jersey, pg 3094). Topical tretinoin (all-trans-retinoic acid) decreases cohesiveness of follicular epithelial cells with decreased microcomedo formation and stimulates mitotic activity increased turnover of follicular epithelial cells causing extrusion of the comedones. Tretinoin is indicated for topical application in the treatment of acne vulgaris, photoaging, hyper- pigmented macules (liver spot) and premature wrinkles, drug-induced photosensitivity, psoriasis, epidermal wound healing, xerophthalmia, keloids, hyperkeratotic skin disease (PDR Generics, 1996, second edition, Medical Economics, Montvale, New Jersey, pg 2981). Isotretinoin inhibits sebaceous gland function and keratinization. Isotretinoin is indicated for the treatment of severe recalcitrant cystic acne, basal cell carcinoma, cervical cancer, mycosis fungoides (cutaneous T-cell lymphoma), Darier's disease, lamellar ichthyosis, pityriasis rubra pilaris, herpes simplex infections, Grover's disease, lichen planus, refractory rosacea, keratosis palmaris et plantaris, leukoplakia, squamous cell skin cancer, and xeroderma pigmentosum. Alitretinoin (9-cw-retinoic acid) is a naturally-occurring endogenous retinoid that binds to and activates all known intracellular retinoid receptor subtypes (RAR, RAR, RAR, RXR, RXR , and RXR). Once activated these receptors function as transcription factors that regulate the expression of genes that control the process of cellular differentiation and proliferation in both normal and neoplastic cells. Alitretinoin inhibits the growth of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) cells in vitro. Alitretinoin is used for the treatment of Kaposi's sarcoma and myelodysplastic syndromes. Retiferol derivatives are used for the treatment of hy- perproliferative skin diseases such as psoriasis, basal cell carcinomas, disorders of keratinization and keratosis, neoplastic diseases, disorders of the sebaceous glands such as acne and seborrhoic dermatitis, the conditions associated with photodamage, the skin damaged through sun exposure, the effects of wrinkling, elastosis and premature ageing (Hilpert , et al., U.S. Pat. No. 6437142 ). Adapalene is used for the topical treatment of acne vulgaris. Acyclic retiniods are used for prevention of second primary tumors (Yasutoshi Muto, et al., the New England Journal of Medicine, 340, 1046 (1999)).(E,E,E)-7-(2-n-propoxy-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-3-yl )-6-fluoro-3-methylocta-2,4,6-trienoic acid may be used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and other metabolic disorders (Deng T, et al., Biol. Pharm. Bull. 28(7), 1192, 2005). Targretin® oral formulation is used for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), head and neck carcinoma, systemic Kaposi's sarcoma, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, and renal cell cancer. Topical Targretin is used for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL).
[3] One alternative method of administering drugs is topical delivery. Topical drug delivery has several advantages. This method helps to avoid inactivation of a drug caused by first pass metabolism in the liver and gastro-intestinal tract. It can provide local delivery of appropriate concentrations of a drug to the intended site of action without systemic exposure. Fishman (Fishman; Robert, U.S. Pat. No. 7,052,715) indicated that an additional problem associated with oral medications, is that the concentration levels which must be achieved in the bloodstream must be significant in order to effectively treat distal areas of pain or inflammation. These levels are often much higher than would be necessary if it were possible to accurately target the particular site of pain or injury. Yeager tried to use penetration enhancer to deliver PGE for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction (Yeager, James L. U.S. Pat. No. 6,693,135) . Susan Milosovich, et al designed and prepared testosteronyl- 4-dimethylaminobutyrate.HCl (TSBH), which has a lipophilic portion and a tertiary amine group that exists in the protonated form at physiological pH. They found that the prodrug (TSBH) diffuses through human skin -60 times faster than does the drug (TS) itself [Susan Milosovich, et al., J. Pharm. ScL, 82, 227(1993)]. Disclosure of Invention
Technical Problem
[4] Retinoids and retinoid-like compounds are used to treat a variety of health conditions including acne, photoaging, psoriasis, ichthyosis, hair loss, and various cancers.
[5] Unfortunately, retinoids and retinoid-like compounds are too lipophilic and practically insoluble in water. The membranes are bilayers, with the hydrophilic head groups facing outward into the aqueous regions on either side. Retinoids can enter the lipophilic membrane, but they will stay in the lipophilic layer as part of the membrane due to their similarities and cannot efficiently enter the cytosol on the inside of cell. Owing to their high degree of unsaturation, retinoids are extremely sensitive to UV light, air, and oxidizing agents. After topical application of retinoids, they enter the membrane, but do not go into the inside of a cell. The sunlight, air, or oxidizing agent will induce retinoids' chemical reactions and cause skin redness, burning sensation, peeling, cracking, blistering, or itching. When they are taken orally, the first pass metabolism, which refers to the chemical breakdown of compounds in the liver and gastro-intestinal tract, can destroy and inactivate them in a few minutes. Oral administration of retinoids creates unnecessary systemic exposure and causes many side effects.
Technical Solution
[6] This invention relates to the design and preparation of novel positively charged pro-drugs of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds and their medicinal use. The prodrugs of 9-cis-retinoic acid (alitretinoin), 13-cis-retinoic acid (isotretinoin) , all- trans-retinoic acid (tretinoin) , vitamin A (retinol), retiferol, adapalene, acyclic retiniod, and retinoid-like compounds have the general formula (1 to 27) 'Structure 1 to 27':

[7] Drug absorption, whether from the gastrointestinal tract or other sites, requires the passage of the drug in a molecular form across the barrier membrane. The drug must first dissolve, and if the drug possesses the desirable biopharmaceutical properties, it will pass from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration across the membrane into the blood or general circulation. All biological membranes contain lipids as major constituents. The molecules that play the dominant roles in membrane formation all have phosphate-containing highly polar head groups, and, in most cases, two highly hydrophobic hydrocarbon tails. The membranes are bilayers, with the hy- drophilic head groups facing outward into the aqueous regions on either side. Very hy- drophilic drugs cannot pass the hydrophobic layer of a membrane and very hydrophobic drugs will stay in the hydrophobic layer as part of the membrane due to their similarities and cannot efficiently enter the cytosol on the inside.
[8] The goal of this invention is to make retinoinds and related compounds ad- ministrable transdermally (topical application) by increasing their solubility in the moisture available on the skin surface and their penetration rate through the membrane and skin barrier. These novel pro-drugs of retinoids and related compounds have two structural features in common: they have a lipophilic portion and a primary, secondary, or tertiary amine group that exists in the protonated form (hydrophilic part) at physiological pH. Such a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance is required for efficient passage through the membrane barrier [Susan Milosovich, et al., J. Pharm. Sci., 82, 227(1993)]. The positively charged amino groups largely increase the solubility of the drugs in water. In many instances, the lowest or rate-limiting step in the sequence is the dissolution of the drug. Retinoids and related compounds have a very low solubility in the moisture available on the skin surface, and they will not pass across the barrier of skin in a molecular form efficiently. When they enter the membranes of the skin, they will stay there as part of the membrane due to their similarities and cannot efficiently enter the cytosol, a semi-liquid concentrated aqueous solution or suspension on the inside of the cell. When these new pro-drugs are administered transdermally in a dosage form such as a solution, spray, lotion, ointment, emulsion or gel, they will dissolve in the moisture available on the skin surface immediately. The positive charge on the amino groups of these pro-drugs will bond to the negative charge on the phosphate head group of a membrane. Thus, the local concentration of the outside of the membrane will be very high and will facilitate the passage of these pro-drugs from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration. When these pro-drugs enter the membrane, the hydrophilic part will push the pro-drug into the cytosol. Due to the short stay outside the membranes of the skin, the pro-drugs will not cause burning, pain, itching, or swelling of the skin and the skin will be not sensitive to sun light. The penetration rates of these prodrugs through human skin were measured in vitro by using modified Franz cells, which were isolated from human skin tissue (360-400 μm thick) of the anterior and posterior thigh areas. The receiving fluid consisted of 2 ml of 2% bovine serum albumin in normal saline and was stirred at 600 rpm. The cumulative amounts of these prodrugs and their parent drugs penetrating the skin versus time were determined by a specific high-performance liquid chromatography method. The results using a donor consisting of either a 5% solution of some of the prodrugs of retinoids or a 5% suspension of retinoids in 0.2mL of the mixture of ethanol and pH 7.4-phosphate buffer (0.2M) (v/v, 70/30) are shown in Figure 1. Apparent flux values of 0.72 mg, 0.85 mg, 1.25 mg, 1.21 mg, 0.35 mg, 0.005 mg, 0.005 mg, 0.005 mg, 0.005 mg, and 0.001 mg/cm2/h were calculated for N,N-diethylaminoethyl 9-cis-retinoate.HBr, N,N-diethylaminoethyl 13-cis-retinoate.HBr, N,N-diethylaminoethyl all-trans-retinoate.HBr, retinyl N,N-dimethyl-2-aminoacetate.HCl, N,N-diethylaminoethyl
4-[l-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2-naphthalenyl)ethenyl]benzoate.HCl, 9-cis-retinoic acid (alitretinoin), 13-cis-retinoic acid (isotretinoin), all-trans-retinoic acid (tretinoin), vitamin A (retinol), and bexaroten (Targretin®) respectively diffusing through human skin. The pro-drugs diffuse through human skin more than 350 times faster than do retinoids. The results suggest that the positive charge on the di- alkyaminoethyl group has a very important role in the passage of the drug across the membrane and skin barrier. [9] Irritative effect or discomfort in the skin of mice of the novel prodrugs was evaluated during a period of 1 week after the topical application of 0.1 ml of 1 % of the respective test drug in ethanol to the back of nude mice twice perday. None of any signs of irritative effect or discomfort was observed for N,N-diethylaminoethyl 9-cis-retinoate.HBr, N,N-diethylaminoethyl 13-cis-retinoate.HBr, N,N-diethylaminoethyl all-trans-retinoate.HBr, retinyl N,N-dimethyl-2-aminoacetate.HCl, N,N-diethylaminoethyl 4-[l-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2-naphthalenyl)ethenyl]benzoate.HCl.
[10] A good prodrug should change back to the parent drug easily. In vitro plasma hydrolysis studies were carried out as the following. 10 mg of the prodrug was dissolved in 0.1 ml of 0.2M pH 7.4 phosphate buffer. 1 ml of human plasma, preheated to 37°C, was added into the mixture. The mixture was kept in a water bath at 37°C. At every 2 min intervals, 0.2 ml of samples were withdrawn and added to 0.4 ml of methanol to precipitate the plasma protein. The samples were centrifuged for 5 min and analyzed by HPLC. The half lives of hydrolysis are 10 min+/-l min. for N,N-diethylaminoethyl 9-cis-retinoate.HBr, 8 min+/-2 min. for N,N-diethylaminoethyl 13-cis-retinoate.HBr, 9 min+/-l min. for N,N-diethylaminoethyl all- trans-retinoate.HBr, 13 min+/-2 min. for retinyl N,N-dimethyl-2-aminoacetate.HCl, and 11 min.+/-2 min. for N,N-diethylaminoethyl 4-[l-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2-naphthalenyl)ethenyl]benzoate.HCl.
[11] Targretin® (bexarotene) selectively activates a subclass of retinoid receptors called
RXRs, which play an important role in several cellular activities. One of the most important of these activities is called programmed cell death, or 'apoptosis', a natural process by which the body rids itself of unwanted cells. Targretin® is being developed by Ligand in both topical and oral formulations. Topical Targretin is used for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). In addition, Targretin oral formulation is used for the treatment of CTCL , head and neck carcinoma, systemic Kaposi's sarcoma, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, and renal cell cancer. Alitretinoin (9-cw-retinoic acid) is a naturally-occurring endogenous retinoid that binds to and activates all known intracellular retinoid receptor subtypes (RARa , RARb , RARg , RXRa , RXRb and RXRg ). Once activated these receptors function as transcription factors that regulate the expression of genes that control the process of cellular differentiation and proliferation in both normal and neoplastic cells. Al- itretinoid is used for treatment of Kaposi's Sarcoma, AI DS-Related Kaposi's Sarcoma , other skin cancer, breast cancer, and other cancers.
[12] For evaluation of anti-tumor activity of these prodrugs, human breast cancer cells
(BCAP-37, 3-4 mm of tumor tissue was used in each mouse) were subcutaneous xenografted into nude mice (BALB). After 1 days, 50 μl of 1 % N,N-diethylaminoethyl 9-cis-retinoate .HBr and N,N-diethylaminoethyl 4-[l-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2-naphthalenyl)ethenyl]benzoate.HCl in ethanol/0.2M pH 7.4 phosphate buffer (v/v, 70/30) was topically applied to the human breast cancer cells-implanted area (near the front leg) twice perday. After 28 days, the control group (n=7) demonstrated 100% incidence (the average tumor size was 13+2 mm x 12+2 cm), but none of tumor was seen in the test groups (n=7) that treated with N,N-diethylaminoethyl 9-cis-retinoate .HBr or N,N-diethylaminoethyl 4-[l-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2-naphthalenyl)ethenyl]benzoate.HCl. The most important thing is that mice that were given the drug did not show any discomfort or irritative effect. The average weight of the treated group is 25+2 grams and that of the control group is 23+3 grams. The results show that these prodrugs have very mild side effects.
[13] In another experiment, human colon cancer cells (LS 174 J, 3-4 mm3 of tumor tissue was used in each mouse) were subcutaneous xenografted into nude mice (BALB). After 1 days, 50 μl of 1 % N,N-diethylaminoethyl 9-cis-retinoate.HBr and N,N-diethylaminoethyl
4-[l-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2-naphthalenyl)ethenyl]benzoate.HCl in ethanol/0.2M pH 7.4 phosphate buffer (v/v, 70/30) was topically applied to the human colon cancer cells-implanted area (near the front leg) twice perday. After 28 days, the control group (n=7) demonstrated 100% incidence (the average tumor size was 22+4 mm x 20+3 mm), but none of tumor was seen in the test groups (n=7) that treated with N,N-diethylaminoethyl 9-cis-retinoate .HBr or N,N-diethylaminoethyl 4-[l-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2-naphthalenyl)ethenyl]benzoate.HCl.

Advantageous Effects
[17] These pro-drugs of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds in the present invention have a lipophilic portion and a hydrophilic portion (the amine groups that exist in the protonated form at physiological pH. The positively charged amino groups of these pro-drugs have two major advantages. First, it largely increases the solubility of the drugs in water; when these new pro-drugs are administered transdermally in a dosage form such as a solution, spray, lotion, ointment, emulsion or gel , they will mix with moisture on the skin, eye, genital area, mouth, nose, or other part of the body immediately. Second, the positive charge on the amino group of these pro-drugs will bond to the negative charge on the phosphate head group of the membrane. Thus, the local concentration outside of the membrane will be very high and will facilitate the passage of these pro-drugs from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration. When these pro-drugs enter the membrane, the hydrophilic part will push the pro-drugs into the cytosol, a semi-liquid concentrated aqueous solution or suspension. Due to the short stay on the skin, eye, genital area, mouth, nose, or other part of the body, the pro-drugs will not cause itching, burning or pain . Experiment results show that more than 90% of the pro-drugs were changed back to the parent drugs in a few minutes. The pro-drugs have a much better absorption rate and as transdermal administration avoids the first pass metabolism , the pro-drugs will be stronger than retinoids and retinoid-like compounds at the same dosage. Another great benefit of transdermal administration of these pro-drugs is that administering medication, especially to children, will be much easier.
