Definitions

  • Sphingosine 1-phosphate is a lysophospholipid mediator that evokes a variety of cellular responses by stimulation of five members of the endothelial cell differentiation gene (EDG) receptor family.
  • EDG endothelial cell differentiation gene
  • the EDG receptors are G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and on stimulation propagate second messenger signals via activation of heterotrimeric G-protein alpha (G ⁇ ) subunits and beta-gamma (G ⁇ ) dimers.
  • GPCRs G-protein coupled receptors
  • the immunomodulator FTY720 (2-amino-2-[2-(4- octylphenyl) ethyl] propane 1,3-diol), that following phosphorylation, is an agonist at 4 of 5 SlP receptors, revealed that affecting SlP receptor activity influences lymphocyte trafficking.
  • SlP type 1 receptor (SlPi) antagonists cause leakage of the lung capillary endothelium, which suggests that SlP may be involved in maintaining the integrity of the endothelial barrier in some tissue beds.
  • SlP type 4 receptors (SlP 4 ) are expressed mainly in leukocytes, and specifically SIP 4 mediates immunosuppressive effects of SlP by inhibiting proliferation and secretion of effector cytokines, while enhancing secretion of the suppressive cytokine IL-IO. See, for example, Wang, W. et. al., (2005) FASEB J. 19(12): 1731-3, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
  • SlP type 5 receptors (SIP 5 ) are exclusively expressed in
  • oligodendrocytes and oligodendrocyte precursor cells are vital for cell migration. Stimulation of SIP 5 inhibits OPC migration, which normally migrate considerable distances during brain development. See, for example, Novgorodov, A. et al., (2007) FASEB J, 21: 1503- 1514, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
  • SlP has been demonstrated to induce many cellular processes, including those that result in platelet aggregation, cell proliferation, cell morphology, tumor-cell invasion, endothelial cell chemotaxis and angiogenesis. For these reasons, SlP receptors are good targets for therapeutic applications such as wound healing, tumor growth inhibition, and autoimmune diseases.
  • Sphingosine- 1-phosphate signals cells in part via a set of G protein-coupled receptors named SlPi, SlP 2 , SlP 3 , SlP 4 , and SlP 5 (formerly EDGl, EDG5, EDG3, EDG6 and EDG8).
  • the EDG receptors are G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and on stimulation propagate second messenger signals via activation of heterotrimeric G-protein alpha (G ⁇ ) subunits and beta-gamma (G ⁇ ) dimers. These receptors share 50-55% amino acid sequence identity and cluster with three other receptors (LPAi, LPA 2 , and LPA 3 (formerly EDG2, EDG4 and EDG7) for the structurally related lysophosphatidic acid (LPA).
  • GPCR G-Protein Coupled Receptor
  • G-proteins capable of associating with many effector proteins leading to an amplified cellular response.
  • compounds can switch from antagonists to agonist depending on what G protein is downstream of the receptor. When G q is downstream a compound targeting the SlP 4 receptor can act as an antagonist. It is possible that with a different G protein (G 1 ) downstream an agonist compound may be an agonist.
  • SlP receptors make good drug targets because individual receptors are both tissue and response specific. Tissue specificity of the SlP receptors is desirable because development of an agonist or antagonist selective for one receptor localizes the cellular response to tissues containing that receptor, limiting unwanted side effects. Response specificity of the SlP receptors is also of importance because it allows for the development of agonists or antagonists that initiate or suppress certain cellular responses without affecting other responses. For example, the response specificity of the SlP receptors could allow for an SlP mimetic that initiates platelet aggregation without affecting cell morphology.
  • Sphingosine-1 -phosphate is formed as a metabolite of sphingosine in its reaction with sphingosine kinase and is stored in abundance in the aggregates of platelets where high levels of sphingosine kinase exist and sphingosine lyase is lacking. SlP is released during platelet aggregation, accumulates in serum, and is also found in malignant ascites. Reversible
  • biodegradation of S IP most likely proceeds via hydrolysis by ectophosphohydrolases, specifically the sphingosine 1- phosphate phosphohydrolases. Irreversible degradation of SlP is catalyzed by SlP lyase yielding ethanolamine phosphate and hexadecenal.
  • SlP receptor having enhanced potency, selectivity, and oral bioavailability.

Abstract

Compounds that have agonist activity at one or more of the SlP receptors are provided. The compounds are sphingosine analogs that, after phosphorylation, can behave as agonists at SlP receptors.

Description

BICYCLIC ARYL SPHINGOSINE 1 -PHOSPHATE ANALOGS
Background
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (SlP) is a lysophospholipid mediator that evokes a variety of cellular responses by stimulation of five members of the endothelial cell differentiation gene (EDG) receptor family. The EDG receptors are G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and on stimulation propagate second messenger signals via activation of heterotrimeric G-protein alpha (Gα) subunits and beta-gamma (Gβγ) dimers. Ultimately, this S IP-driven signaling results in cell survival, increased cell migration and, often, mitogenesis. The recent development of agonists targeting SlP receptors has provided insight regarding the role of this signaling system in physiologic homeostasis. For example, the immunomodulator, FTY720 (2-amino-2-[2-(4- octylphenyl) ethyl] propane 1,3-diol), that following phosphorylation, is an agonist at 4 of 5 SlP receptors, revealed that affecting SlP receptor activity influences lymphocyte trafficking.
Further, SlP type 1 receptor (SlPi) antagonists cause leakage of the lung capillary endothelium, which suggests that SlP may be involved in maintaining the integrity of the endothelial barrier in some tissue beds. SlP type 4 receptors (SlP4) are expressed mainly in leukocytes, and specifically SIP4 mediates immunosuppressive effects of SlP by inhibiting proliferation and secretion of effector cytokines, while enhancing secretion of the suppressive cytokine IL-IO. See, for example, Wang, W. et. al., (2005) FASEB J. 19(12): 1731-3, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. SlP type 5 receptors (SIP5) are exclusively expressed in
oligodendrocytes and oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) and are vital for cell migration. Stimulation of SIP5 inhibits OPC migration, which normally migrate considerable distances during brain development. See, for example, Novgorodov, A. et al., (2007) FASEB J, 21: 1503- 1514, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
SlP has been demonstrated to induce many cellular processes, including those that result in platelet aggregation, cell proliferation, cell morphology, tumor-cell invasion, endothelial cell chemotaxis and angiogenesis. For these reasons, SlP receptors are good targets for therapeutic applications such as wound healing, tumor growth inhibition, and autoimmune diseases.
Sphingosine- 1-phosphate signals cells in part via a set of G protein-coupled receptors named SlPi, SlP2, SlP3, SlP4, and SlP5 (formerly EDGl, EDG5, EDG3, EDG6 and EDG8). The EDG receptors are G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and on stimulation propagate second messenger signals via activation of heterotrimeric G-protein alpha (Gα) subunits and beta-gamma (Gβγ) dimers. These receptors share 50-55% amino acid sequence identity and cluster with three other receptors (LPAi, LPA2, and LPA3 (formerly EDG2, EDG4 and EDG7) for the structurally related lysophosphatidic acid (LPA).
A conformational shift is induced in the G-Protein Coupled Receptor (GPCR) when the ligand binds to that receptor, causing GDP to be replaced by GTP on the α-subunit of the associated G-proteins and subsequent release of the G-proteins into the cytoplasm. The α-subunit then dissociates from the βγ-subunit and each subunit can then associate with effector proteins, which activate second messengers leading to a cellular response. Eventually the GTP on the G-proteins is hydrolyzed to GDP and the subunits of the G-proteins reassociate with each other and then with the receptor. Amplification plays a major role in the general GPCR pathway. The binding of one ligand to one receptor leads to the activation of many G-proteins, each capable of associating with many effector proteins leading to an amplified cellular response. Generally, compounds can switch from antagonists to agonist depending on what G protein is downstream of the receptor. When Gq is downstream a compound targeting the SlP4 receptor can act as an antagonist. It is possible that with a different G protein (G1) downstream an agonist compound may be an agonist.
SlP receptors make good drug targets because individual receptors are both tissue and response specific. Tissue specificity of the SlP receptors is desirable because development of an agonist or antagonist selective for one receptor localizes the cellular response to tissues containing that receptor, limiting unwanted side effects. Response specificity of the SlP receptors is also of importance because it allows for the development of agonists or antagonists that initiate or suppress certain cellular responses without affecting other responses. For example, the response specificity of the SlP receptors could allow for an SlP mimetic that initiates platelet aggregation without affecting cell morphology.
Sphingosine-1 -phosphate is formed as a metabolite of sphingosine in its reaction with sphingosine kinase and is stored in abundance in the aggregates of platelets where high levels of sphingosine kinase exist and sphingosine lyase is lacking. SlP is released during platelet aggregation, accumulates in serum, and is also found in malignant ascites. Reversible
biodegradation of S IP most likely proceeds via hydrolysis by ectophosphohydrolases, specifically the sphingosine 1- phosphate phosphohydrolases. Irreversible degradation of SlP is catalyzed by SlP lyase yielding ethanolamine phosphate and hexadecenal.
Summary
Currently, there is a need for novel, potent, and selective agents that are agonists of the
SlP receptor having enhanced potency, selectivity, and oral bioavailability. In addition, there is a need in the art for identification of, as well as the synthesis and use of, such compounds.

A prodrug containing such a moiety may be prepared according to conventional procedures, for example, by treatment of a compound of this invention containingo an amino, amido or hydroxyl moiety with a suitable derivatizing agent, for example, a carboxylic or phosphoric acid halide or acid anhydride, or by converting a carboxyl moiety to an ester or amide. Metabolites of the compounds of formula (I) may also be pharmaceutically active as well.
An "effective amount" means an amount sufficient to produce a selected effect. For example, an effective amount of an SlP receptor agonist is an amount that decreases the cell5 signaling activity of the SlP receptor.
The disclosed compounds can contain one or more asymmetric centers in the molecule. In accordance with the present disclosure any structure that does not designate the
stereochemistry is to be understood as embracing all the various optical isomers (e.g., diastereomers and enantiomers), as well as mixtures thereof (such as a racemic mixture). Theo compounds can be isotopically-labeled compounds, for example, compounds including various isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, fluorine, iodine, or chlorine. The disclosed compounds may exist in tautomeric forms and the invention includes both mixtures and separate individual tautomers. For example, the following structure:
HN^N is understood to represent a mixture of the structures:
HN^N N^NH as well as
An "SlP modulating agent" refers a compound or composition that is capable of inducing a detectable change in SlP receptor activity in vivo or in vitro {e.g., at least 10% increase or decrease in SlP activity as measured by a given assay such as the bioassay described in the examples and known in the art. "SlP receptor," refers to all of the SlP receptor subtypes (for example, the SlP receptors SlPi, SlP2, SlP3, SIP4, or SIP5), unless the specific subtype is indicated.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the disclosed compounds having chiral centers may exist in and be isolated in optically active and racemic forms. It is to be understood that the disclosed compounds encompass any racemic, optically active or
stereoisomeric form, or mixtures thereof. It is well known in the art how to prepare such optically active forms (for example, resolution of the racemic form by recrystallization techniques, synthesis from optically-active starting materials, by chiral synthesis, or
chromatographic separation using a chiral stationary phase) and how to determine SlP agonist activity using the standard tests described herein, or using other similar tests which are well known in the art. In addition, some compounds may exhibit polymorphism.
Potential uses of an SlP receptor agonist, and SlPi receptor type selective agonists particularly, include, but are not limited to, prevention or treatement of a pathological condition or symptom in a mammal. For example, the condition can include asthma, inflammatory neuropathies, arthritis, lupus erythematosis, psoriasis, ischemia-reperfusion injury, solid tumours, tumour metastasis, diseases associated with angiogenesis, vascular diseases, pain conditions, acute viral diseases, or insulin and non-insulin dependant diabetes. The condition can alter lymphocyte trafficking as a method of treatment for neuropathic pain, inflammation-induced pain (e.g., where prostaglandins are involved) or treatment of autoimmune pathologies such as uveitis, type I diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic inflammatory disorders, inflammatory bowel diseases (e.g., Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis), multiple sclerosis, and in drug- eluting stents. Additional uses can include treatment of brain degenerative diseases, heart diseases, cancers, or hepatitis C. See, for example, WO 2005/085295, WO 2004/010987, WO 03/097028, and WO 2006/072562, each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. A class of SlP agonist compounds are described in provisional U.S. Application no. 60/956,111, filed August 15, 2007, and PCT/US2008/073378, filed August 15, 2008, each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
Potential uses of an SlP receptor antagonist, and SIP5 receptor type selective antagonists particularly, include, but are not limited to, prevention or treatement of a pathological condition or symptom in a mammal. For example, the condition can include inhibited cell migration of oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs). In another example, an SIP5 receptor type selective antagonist may not induce lymphopenia, thereby achieving partial efficacy without
immuno suppres sion .
Potential uses of an SlP receptor antagonist, and SIP4 receptor type selective antagonists particularly, include, but are not limited to, prevention or treatement of a pathological condition or symptom in a mammal.
"Treatment" of multiple sclerosis includes treating various forms of the disease including relapsing-remitting, chronic progressive, and the SlP receptor agonists/antagonists can be used alone or in conjunction with other agents to relieve signs and symptoms of the disease as well as prophylactically.
In addition, the disclosed compounds can be used for altering lymphocyte trafficking as a method for prolonging allograft survival, for example transplantation including solid organ transplants, treatment of graft vs. host disease, bone marrow transplantation, and the like.
In addition, the disclosed compounds can be used to inhibit autotaxin. Autotaxin, a plasma phosphodiesterase, has been demonstrated to undergo end product inhibition. Autotaxin hydrolyzes several substrates to yield lysophosphatidic acid and sphingosine 1 -phosphate, and has been implicated in cancer progression and angiogenesis. Therefore, SlP receptor agonist prodrugs of the disclosed compounds can be used to inhibit autotaxin. This activity may be combined with agonism at SlP receptors or may be independent of such activity.
Disclosed compounds can be useful for inhibition of sphingosine kinase (i.e., of sphingosine kinase I, sphingosine kinase II, or both). Sphingosine kinase is an intracellular enzyme that catalyzes the formation of SlP from sphingosine and a nucleotide triphosphate (e.g., ATP). Inhibition of sphingosine kinase can reduce the formation of SlP and thereby reduce the supply of SlP available to activate signaling at SlP receptors. Accordingly, sphingosine kinase inhibitors can be useful in modulating immune system function. Therefore, the disclosed compounds can be used to inhibit sphingosine kinase. This inhibition could be in concert with SlP receptor activity, or be independent of activity at any SlP receptor.
In addition, disclosed compounds can be useful for inhibition of SlP lyase. SlP lyase is an intracellular enzyme that irreversibly degrades SlP. Inhibition of SlP lyase disrupts lymphocyte trafficking with concomitant lymphopenia. Accordingly, SlP lyase inhibitors can be useful in modulating immune system function. Therefore, the disclosed compounds can be used to inhibit SlP lyase. This inhibition could be in concert with SlP receptor activity, or be independent of activity at any SlP receptor.
In addition, disclosed compounds can be useful as antagonists of the cannabinoid CBi receptor. CBi antagonism is associated with a decrease in body weight and an improvement in blood lipid profiles. The CBi antagonism could be in concert with SlP receptor activity, or be independent of activity at any SlP receptor.
In addition, disclosed compounds can be useful for inhibition of group IVA cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2). cPLA2 catalyzes the release of eicosanoic acids (e.g., arachidonic acid). The eicosanoic acids are transformed to pro-inflammatory eicosanoids such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes. Thus, disclosed compounds may be useful as anti-inflammatory agents. This inhibition could be in concert with SlP receptor activity, or be independent of activity at any SlP receptor.
In addition, disclosed compounds may be useful for inhibition of the multiple substrate lipid kinase (MuLK). MuLK is highly expressed in many human tumor cells and thus its inhibition might slow the growth or spread of tumors.
Pharmaceutical compositions can include the compounds of formula I. More particularly, such compounds can be formulated as pharmaceutical compositions using standard
pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, fillers, solubilizing agents and stabilizers known to those skilled in the art. For example, a pharmaceutical composition including a compound of formula I, or a salt, analog, derivative, or modification thereof, as described herein, is used to administer the appropriate compound to a subject. The compounds of formula I are useful for treating a disease or disorder including administering to a subject in need thereof of a therapeutically acceptable amount of a compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I, and a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier.
The disclosed compounds and method are directed to sphingosine 1-phosphate (SlP) analogs that have activity as receptor agonists or receptor antagonists at one or more SlP receptors, specifically the SlPi, SlP4 or SIP5 receptor types. The disclosed compounds and method include both compounds that have a phosphate moiety as well as compounds with hydrolysis-resistant phosphate surrogates such as phosphonates, alpha- substituted phosphonates (particularly where the alpha substitution is a halogen), or phosphothionates.
In cases where compounds of formula I are sufficiently basic or acidic to form stable nontoxic acid or base salts, preparation and administration of the compounds as pharmaceutically acceptable salts may be appropriate. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts are organic acid addition salts formed with acids which form a physiological acceptable anion, for example, tosylate, methanesulfonate, acetate, citrate, malonate, tartarate, succinate, benzoate, ascorbate, α- ketoglutarate, or α-glycerophosphate. Inorganic salts may also be formed, including
hydrochloride, sulfate, nitrate, bicarbonate, and carbonate salts.
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts may be obtained using standard procedures well known in the art, for example by reacting a sufficiently basic compound such as an amine with a suitable acid affording a physiologically acceptable anion. Alkali metal (for example, sodium, potassium or lithium) or alkaline earth metal (for example calcium) salts of carboxylic acids can also be made.
Pharmaceutically-acceptable base addition salts can be prepared from inorganic and organic bases. Salts from inorganic bases, include but are not limited to, sodium, potassium, lithium, ammonium, calcium or magnesium salts. Salts derived from organic bases include, but are not limited to, salts of primary, secondary or tertiary amines, such as alkyl amines, dialkyl amines, trialkyl amines, substituted alkyl amines, di(substituted alkyl) amines, tri(substituted alkyl) amines, alkenyl amines, dialkenyl amines, trialkenyl amines, substituted alkenyl amines, di(substituted alkenyl) amines, tri(substituted alkenyl) amines, cycloalkyl amines, di(cycloalkyl) amines, tri(cycloalkyl) amines, substituted cycloalkyl amines, disubstituted cycloalkyl amine, trisubstituted cycloalkyl amines, cycloalkenyl amines, di(cycloalkenyl) amines, tri(cycloalkenyl) amines, substituted cycloalkenyl amines, disubstituted cycloalkenyl amine, trisubstituted cycloalkenyl amines, aryl amines, diaryl amines, triaryl amines, heteroaryl amines, diheteroaryl amines, triheteroaryl amines, heterocyclic amines, diheterocyclic amines, triheterocyclic amines, or mixed di- and tri-amines where at least two of the substituents on the amine are different and are alkyl, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, substituted alkenyl, cycloalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, substituted cycloalkenyl, aryl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclic and the like. Also included are amines where the two or three substituents, together with the amino nitrogen, form a heterocyclic or heteroaryl group. Non-limiting examples of amines include, isopropylamine, trimethyl amine, diethyl amine, tri(iso-propyl) amine, tri(n-propyl) amine, ethanolamine, 2- dimethylaminoethanol, tromethamine, lysine, arginine, histidine, caffeine, procaine,
hydrabamine, choline, betaine, ethylenediamine, glucosamine, N-alkylglucamines, theobromine, purines, piperazine, piperidine, morpholine, or N-ethylpiperidine, and the like. It should also be understood that other carboxylic acid derivatives would be useful, for example, carboxylic acid amides, including carboxamides, lower alkyl carboxamides, or dialkyl carboxamides, and the like.
The compounds of formula I can be formulated as pharmaceutical compositions and administered to a mammalian host, such as a human patient in a variety of forms adapted to the chosen route of administration, e.g., orally or parenterally, as eyedrops, by intravenous, intramuscular, topical or subcutaneous routes.
Thus, the present compounds may be systemically administered, e.g., orally, in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle such as an inert diluent or an assimilable edible carrier. They may be enclosed in hard or soft shell gelatin capsules, may be compressed into tablets, or may be incorporated directly with the food of the patient's diet. For oral therapeutic administration, the active compound may be combined with one or more excipients and used in the form of ingestible tablets, buccal tablets, troches, capsules, elixirs, suspensions, syrups, or wafers, and the like. Such compositions and preparations should contain at least about 0.1% of active compound. The percentage of the compositions and preparations may, of course, be varied and may conveniently be between about 2 to about 60% of the weight of a given unit dosage form. The amount of active compound in such therapeutically useful compositions is such that an effective dosage level will be obtained. The tablets, troches, pills, capsules, and the like may also contain the following: binders such as gum tragacanth, acacia, corn starch or gelatin; excipients such as dicalcium phosphate; a disintegrating agent such as corn starch, potato starch, alginic acid and the like; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate; and a sweetening agent such as sucrose, fructose, lactose or aspartame or a flavoring agent such as peppermint, oil of wintergreen, or cherry flavoring may be added. When the unit dosage form is a capsule, it may contain, in addition to materials of the above type, a liquid carrier, such as a vegetable oil or a polyethylene glycol. Various other materials may be present as coatings or to otherwise modify the physical form of the solid unit dosage form. For instance, tablets, pills, or capsules may be coated with gelatin, wax, shellac or sugar and the like. A syrup or elixir may contain the active compound, sucrose or fructose as a sweetening agent, methyl or propylparabens as preservatives, a dye and flavoring such as cherry or orange flavor. Of course, any material used in preparing any unit dosage form should be pharmaceutically acceptable and substantially non-toxic in the amounts employed. In addition, the active compound may be incorporated into sustained-release preparations and devices.
The active compound may also be administered intravenously or intraperitoneally by infusion or injection. Solutions of the active compound or its salts can be prepared in water, optionally mixed with a nontoxic surfactant. Dispersions can also be prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycols, triacetin, and mixtures thereof and in oils. Under ordinary conditions of storage and use, these preparations contain a preservative to prevent the growth of
microorganisms.
Exemplary pharmaceutical dosage forms for injection or infusion can include sterile aqueous solutions or dispersions or sterile powders comprising the active ingredient which are adapted for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable or infusible solutions or dispersions, optionally encapsulated in liposomes. In all cases, the ultimate dosage form should be sterile, fluid and stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage. The liquid carrier or vehicle can be a solvent or liquid dispersion medium comprising, for example, water, ethanol, a polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, liquid polyethylene glycols, and the like), vegetable oils, or nontoxic glyceryl esters, and mixtures thereof. The proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the formation of liposomes, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions or by the use of surfactants. The prevention of the action of microorganisms can be brought about by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, sorbic acid, or thimerosal, and the like. In many cases, it will be preferable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, buffers or sodium chloride. Prolonged absorption of the injectable compositions can be brought about by the use in the compositions of agents delaying absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate or gelatin.
Sterile injectable solutions are prepared by incorporating the active compound in the required amount in the appropriate solvent with various of the other ingredients enumerated above, as required, followed by filter sterilization. In the case of sterile powders for the preparation of sterile injectable solutions, the preferred methods of preparation are vacuum drying and the freeze drying techniques, which yield a powder of the active ingredient plus any additional desired ingredient present in the previously sterile-filtered solutions.
For topical administration, the present compounds may be applied in pure form, e.g., when they are liquids. However, it will generally be desirable to administer them to the skin as compositions or formulations, in combination with a dermatologically acceptable carrier, which may be a solid or a liquid.
Exemplary solid carriers include finely divided solids such as talc, clay, microcrystalline cellulose, silica, alumina and the like. Useful liquid carriers include water, alcohols or glycols or water-alcohol/glycol blends, in which the present compounds can be dissolved or dispersed at effective levels, optionally with the aid of non-toxic surfactants. Adjuvants such as fragrances and additional antimicrobial agents can be added to optimize the properties for a given use. The resultant liquid compositions can be applied from absorbent pads, used to impregnate bandages and other dressings, or sprayed onto the affected area using pump-type or aerosol sprayers.
Thickeners such as synthetic polymers, fatty acids, fatty acid salts or esters, fatty alcohols, modified celluloses or modified mineral materials can also be employed with liquid carriers to form spreadable pastes, gels, ointments, soaps, and the like, for application directly to the skin of the user.
Examples of useful dermatological compositions which can be used to deliver the compounds of formula I to the skin are known to the art; for example, see Jacquet et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 4,608,392), Geria (U.S. Pat. No. 4,992,478), Smith et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 4,559,157) and Wortzman (U.S. Pat. No. 4,820,508), each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
Useful dosages of the compounds of formula I can be determined by comparing their in vitro activity, and in vivo activity in animal models. Methods for the extrapolation of effective dosages in mice, and other animals, to humans are known to the art; for example, see U.S. Pat. No. 4,938,949, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
Generally, the concentration of the compound(s) of formula I in a liquid composition, such as a lotion, will be from about 0.1 to about 25 weight percent, preferably from about 0.5-10 weight percent. The concentration in a semi-solid or solid composition such as a gel or a powder will be about 0.1-5 wt-%, preferably about 0.5-2.5 weight percent based on the total weight of the composition.
The amount of the compound, or an active salt or derivative thereof, required for use in treatment will vary not only with the particular salt selected but also with the route of
administration, the nature of the condition being treated and the age and condition of the patient and will be ultimately at the discretion of the attendant physician or clinician. In general, however, a dose will be in the range of from about 0.1 to about 10 mg/kg of body weight per day.
The compound is conveniently administered in unit dosage form; for example, containing 0.01 to 10 mg, or 0.05 to 1 mg, of active ingredient per unit dosage form. In some embodiments, a dose of 5 mg/kg or less is suitable.
Ideally, the active ingredient should be administered to achieve peak plasma
concentrations of the active compound of from about 0.5 to about 75 μM, preferably, about 1 to 50 μM, most preferably, about 2 to about 30 μM. This may be achieved, for example, by the intravenous injection of a 0.05 to 5% solution of the active ingredient, optionally in saline, or orally administered as a bolus containing about 1-100 mg of the active ingredient. Desirable blood levels may be maintained by continuous infusion to provide about 0.01-5.0 mg/kg/hr or by intermittent infusions containing about 0.4-15 mg/kg of the active ingredient(s).
The desired dose may conveniently be presented in a single dose or as divided doses administered at appropriate intervals, for example, as two, three, four, or more sub-doses per day. The sub-dose itself may be further divided, e.g., into a number of discrete loosely spaced administrations; such as multiple inhalations from an insufflator or by application of a plurality of drops into the eye.
The disclosed method includes a kit comprising a compound of formula I and
instructional material which describes administering the compound or a composition comprising the compound to a cell or a subject. This should be construed to include other embodiments of kits that are known to those skilled in the art, such as a kit comprising a (preferably sterile) solvent for dissolving or suspending the compound or composition prior to administering the compound or composition to a cell or a subject. Preferably, the subject is a human.
Compounds can have an EC50 of between 5 nM and 3 μM when acting as selective agonists for SlPi receptors. While the EC50 of certain compounds acting as agonists to SlPi and SIP3 receptors can be greater than 5000 nM, these same compounds can have an EC50 of 0.2 nM - 700 nM when acting as selective antagonists for SIP5 receptors and 50 nM - 3 μM when acting as selective antagonists for SIP4 receptors.
In accordance with the disclosed compounds and methods, as described above or as discussed in the Examples below, there can be employed conventional chemical, cellular, histochemical, biochemical, molecular biology, microbiology, and in vivo techniques which are known to those of skill in the art. Such techniques are explained fully in the literature.
The following working examples are provided for the purpose of illustration only, and are not to be construed as limiting in any way the remainder of the disclosure. Therefore, the examples should be construed to encompass any and all variations which become evident as a result of the teaching provided herein.

Example 310: Calcium Mobilization
Compounds that are not specific for the SlPi receptor, e.g., have SlP3 activity, can cause undesirable side effects. Accordingly, compounds are tested to identify those that are specific for SlPi activity and have little or no activity, or are antagonists of, SIP3 activity. Accordingly, the test compounds are tested in a calcium mobilization assay to determine agonist activity at either the human SlPi or human SlP3 receptor, and antagonist activity only at the human SIP3 receptor. The procedure is essentially as described in Davis et al. (2005) Journal of Biological Chemistry, vol. 280, pp. 9833-9841, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety with the following modifications. Calcium mobilization assays were performed in recombinant CHEM cells expressing human SlPi, SlP2, SlP3, S IP4, or SIP5 purchased from Millipore (Billerica, MA). To detect free intracellular calcium, SlPi, SlP2, SlP3, SlP4, or SlP5 cells were loaded with FLIPR Calcium 4 dye from Molecular Devices (Sunnyvale, CA). Cells were imaged for calcium mobilization using a FLIPR™11^ equipped with a 96-well dispense head.
Example 311: In vivo Screening Assays
Measurement of circulating lymphocytes: Compounds are dissolved in 30% HPCD. Mice (C57bl/6 male, 6-10 week-old) are administered 0.5 and 5 mg/kg of a compound via oral gavage 30% HPCD is included as a negative control.
Blood is collected from the retro-orbital sinus 5 and 24 hours after drug administration under short isoflurane anesthesia. Whole blood samples are subjected to hematology analysis. Peripheral lymphocyte counts are determined using an automated analyzer (HEMA VET™ 3700). Subpopulations of peripheral blood lymphocytes are stained by fluorochrome-conjugated specific antibodies and analyzed using a fluorescent activating cell sorter (FACSCALIB UR™). Three mice are used to assess the lymphocyte depletion activity of each compound screened.
Compounds of formula (I) can induce full lymphopenia at times as short as 4 hours or less to as long as 48 hours or more; for example, 4 to 36 hours, or 5 to 24 hours. In some cases, a compound of formula can induce full lymphopenia at 5 hours and partial lymphopenia at 24 hours. The dosage required to induce lymphopenia can be in the range of, e.g., 0.001 mg/kg to 100 mg/kg; or 0.01 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg. The dosage can be 10 mg/kg or less, such as 5 mg/kg or less, 1 mg/kg or less, or 0.1 mg/kg or less.
Example 312: Assessment of Heart Effect
One reported undesirable effect of an SlP agonist can be, e.g., bradycardia. Assays are conducted to determine the effect of test compounds on heart function. The effects of compounds on cardiac function are monitored using the ECG genie recording system.
