CAMPO DE LA INVENCIÓN FIELD OF THE INVENTION
La presente invención se enmarca tanto en el campo de la química farmacéutica como en el de la medicina, de forma más específica se refiere a compuestos útiles como agentes citotóxicos, y más concretamente, compuestos zwitteriónicos derivados de 2- fosfocolina. The present invention is framed both in the field of pharmaceutical chemistry and in medicine, more specifically it refers to compounds useful as cytotoxic agents, and more specifically, zwitterionic compounds derived from 2-phosphocholine.
ESTADO DE LA TÉCNICA ANTERIOR STATE OF THE PREVIOUS TECHNIQUE
Los fosfolípidos son estructuras derivadas de los lípidos formadas por una zona hidrofóbica, constituyéndola generalmente dos cadenas de ácidos grasos, y una zona hidrofílica, formada por un grupo fosfato. Dichas estructuras forman principalmente las membranas celulares debido a su naturaleza anfifílica. Phospholipids are structures derived from lipids formed by a hydrophobic zone, generally constituting two fatty acid chains, and a hydrophilic zone, formed by a phosphate group. Such structures mainly form cell membranes due to their amphiphilic nature.
Las fosfatidilcolinas son un tipo de fosfolípidos en la que la parte hidrofílica está formada por un grupo fosfocolina, formando también membranas biológicas. La fosfocolina está formada por un grupo fosfato que soporta una carga negativa, enlazado a una unidad de colina, la cual soporta una carga positiva. Tanto las fosfatidilcolinas como las esfingomielinas son los únicos derivados de fosfolípidos que no contienen el glicerol como esqueleto principal. Phosphatidylcholines are a type of phospholipids in which the hydrophilic part is formed by a phosphocholine group, also forming biological membranes. Phosphocholine is formed by a phosphate group that supports a negative charge, linked to a choline unit, which supports a positive charge. Both phosphatidylcholines and sphingomyelins are the only phospholipid derivatives that do not contain glycerol as the main skeleton.
Entre las estructuras de fosfolípidos se han encontrado ejemplos de derivados del éster de fosfocolina (US 2008/0175852 A1) o derivados de fosforilpantoamidas (DE 3728915), entre otros. Examples of phospholipid ester derivatives (US 2008/0175852 A1) or phosphorylpantoamide derivatives (DE 3728915), among others, have been found among the phospholipid structures.
Otro derivado de fosfatidilcolina son las lisofosfatidilcolinas, resultantes de la pérdida de uno de los ácidos grasos a través de una hidrólisis parcial, y sus análogos alquil- lisofosfolípidos sintéticos antitumorales (ALPs), generados por el intercambio del grupo acilo por el grupo alquilo, tales como la Edelfosina y la Miltefosina. Estos dos productos han mostrado alta estabilidad metabólica y efectos anticancerígenos, por apoptosis selectiva de las células tumorales.así como efectividad inmunomoduladora o antiprotozoaria ( CancerLetters , 2017, 388, 262-268.), ( International Journal of AntimicrobialAgents, 2017, 49, 465-471) (Mollinedo et al., 1997. Cáncer Res.57\ 1320- 1328; Gajate et al., 2004. J Exp. Med.200\ 353-365). Sin embargo, estos compuestos presentan inconvenientes tales como su escasa solubilidad en agua o su elevada toxicidad. Another derivative of phosphatidylcholine are lysophosphatidylcholines, resulting from the loss of one of the fatty acids through partial hydrolysis, and their alkyl analogs. synthetic antitumor lysophospholipids (ALPs), generated by the exchange of the acyl group for the alkyl group, such as Edelfosine and Miltefosine. These two products have shown high metabolic stability and anticancer effects, by selective apoptosis of tumor cells, as well as immunomodulatory or antiprotozoal effectiveness (CancerLetters, 2017, 388, 262-268.), (International Journal of AntimicrobialAgents, 2017, 49, 465 -471) (Mollinedo et al., 1997. Cancer Res. 57 \ 1320-1328; Gajate et al., 2004. J Exp. Med. 200 \ 353-365). However, these compounds have drawbacks such as their poor water solubility or their high toxicity.

A diferencia, la presente invención se refiere a compuestos con una unidad de fosfocolina unida al derivado de un ácido graso saturado, monoinsaturado o poliinsaturado a través del grupo hidroxilo situado en la posición alfa al grupo carbonilo. In contrast, the present invention relates to compounds with a phosphocholine unit linked to the derivative of a saturated, monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fatty acid through the hydroxyl group located in the alpha position to the carbonyl group.
Como se describe en WO 2010/066931 estos ácidos grasos hidroxilados en la posición a (la posición adyacente al carboxilo), saturados, monoinsaturados, o poliinsaturados, regulan la composición y estructura de los lípidos de membrana en todas las células previniendo o revirtiendo enfermedades como cáncer, patologías cardiovasculares, procesos neurodegenerativos, obesidad, desórdenes metabólicos, inflamaciones o enfermedades autoinmunes, entre otras. En estos derivados, tanto el doble enlace como el sustituyente situado en el carbono en alfa al carbono carbonílico son esenciales para el correcto funcionamiento de la estructura, puesto que se ha observado una mayor actividad curativa o preventiva con respecto a estructuras sin estas dos características concretas. Además, se ha observado que el sustituyente en la posición en 2 bloquea la degradación del ácido graso o su derivado y le permite permanecer de forma prolongada, con respecto al ácido graso sin dicho sustituyente, en el medio celular, permitiendo su acción terapéutica. WO 2010/066931 divulga el material de partida del compuesto MCH-811 responsable parcialmente de la actividad. As described in WO 2010/066931 these hydroxylated fatty acids in the position a (the position adjacent to the carboxyl), saturated, monounsaturated, or polyunsaturated, regulate the composition and structure of membrane lipids in all cells preventing or reversing diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular pathologies, neurodegenerative processes, obesity, metabolic disorders, inflammations or autoimmune diseases, among others. In these derivatives, both the double bond and the substituent located in the carbon in alpha to the carbonyl carbon are essential for the proper functioning of the structure, since a greater curative or preventive activity has been observed with respect to structures without these two specific characteristics . In addition, it has been observed that the substituent in the 2-position blocks the degradation of fatty acid or its derivative and allows it to remain prolonged, with respect to fatty acid without said substituent, in the cellular medium, allowing its therapeutic action. WO 2010/066931 discloses the starting material of compound MCH-811 partially responsible for the activity.
La síntesis de fosfatidilcolinas se ha abordado utilizando diferentes estrategias tales como la adición directa de la fosfocolina o una de sus sales o la formación por pasos de la fosfocolina sobre el sustrato, entre otras, y diferentes reactivos o catalizadores como el cloruro de 2,4,6-triisopropilbencenosulfonilo o complejos de transferencia de carga.  The synthesis of phosphatidylcholines has been addressed using different strategies such as the direct addition of phosphocholine or one of its salts or the step formation of phosphocholine on the substrate, among others, and different reagents or catalysts such as 2,4 chloride , 6-triisopropylbenzenesulfonyl or charge transfer complexes.
El ácido fosfatídico también ha sido utilizado en la síntesis de fosfatidilcolinas, empleando para ello un agente de condensación como el cloruro de 2,4,6- triisopropilbencenosulfonilo, con el inconveniente de la dificultad en la generación del yodoformo y su posterior eliminación de la sal de colina, o el tetrafen i I borato de colina (Journal of LipidResearch^984, 25, 1 140-1 142.), utilizado conjuntamente con un agente de condensación, el cloruro de 2,4,6-triisopropilbencenosulfonilo. Phosphatidic acid has also been used in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholines, using a condensing agent such as 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzenesulfonyl chloride, with the disadvantage of the difficulty in generating iodoform and its subsequent salt elimination of choline, or tetrafen and I choline borate (Journal of LipidResearch ^ 984, 25, 1 140-1 142.), used in conjunction with a condensing agent, 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzenesulfonyl chloride.
También se han desarrollado derivados de p-nitrofenil-O-fosfocolinhidroxilalquil ésteres (US2008/0175852 A1) a partir de ésteres alquílicos con un buen grupo saliente en el metileno final de la cadena carbonada y fosfocolina de los que resulta el correspondiente alcanoato de fosfocolina tras tratamiento con una amina cuaternaria. Este alcanoato de fosfocolina se esterifica o transesterifica con trifluoroacetato dep-nitrofenilo para obtener el producto deseado. En esta solicitud de patente estadounidense se describe el uso de los compuestos corona y además emplean condiciones de temperatura bastante elevadas, entre 110 y 120°C. Son condiciones de reacción bastante enérgicas que no permiten la síntesis de compuestos sensibles. Cuando hay dobles enlaces la oxidación es muy rápida a esa temperatura, sobre todo cuando en los ácidos grasos poliinsaturados como DHA, EPA o linoléico. Sin embargo, en nuestra metodología se trabaja a temperatura ambiente en todo momento, condiciones suaves. Derivatives of p-nitrophenyl-O-phosphochinohydroxylalkyl esters (US2008 / 0175852 A1) have also been developed from alkyl esters with a good leaving group in the final methylene of the carbon chain and phosphocholine resulting from the corresponding phosphocholine alkanoate after treatment with a quaternary amine. This phosphocholine alkanoate is esterified or transesterified with dep-nitrophenyl trifluoroacetate to obtain the desired product. In this US patent application the use of the crown compounds is described and they also employ quite high temperature conditions, between 110 and 120 ° C. They are quite energetic reaction conditions that do not allow the synthesis of sensitive compounds. When there are double bonds the oxidation is very fast at that temperature, especially when in polyunsaturated fatty acids such as DHA, EPA or linoleic. However, our methodology works at room temperature at all times, mild conditions.
En la presente invención la síntesis del producto presentado consta de dos pasos con condiciones de reacción suaves, el primero de adición del diclorofosfato de 2-bromoetilo (o cloroetilo o yodoetilo) sobre el grupo hidroxilo situado en posición alfa al grupo carbonilo y el segundo paso de sustitución del átomo de bromo, yodo o cloro, por un grupo trimetilamino. Estas condiciones mejoran la operación sintética a escala mayor y los tiempos de ejecución son más cortos con respecto a lo descrito en US 2008/0175852 A1. In the present invention, the synthesis of the product presented consists of two steps with mild reaction conditions, the first of addition of 2-bromoethyl dichlorophosphate (or chloroethyl or iodoethyl) on the hydroxyl group located in alpha position to the carbonyl group and the second step replacement of the bromine, iodine or chlorine atom with a trimethylamino group. These conditions improve synthetic operation on a larger scale and the execution times are shorter compared to that described in US 2008/0175852 A1.
Cabe recalcar que el cáncer es, por detrás de las enfermedades cardiovasculares, la segunda causa de muerte en el mundo, causando 14 millones de fallecidos en el año 2012 Para tratar esta enfermedad se buscan agentes anticancerígenos capaces de atacar selectivamente las células cancerosas dejando las células sanas inalteradas. En este sentido, derivados lipidíeos de distinta naturaleza han demostrado su eficacia antitumoral, entre otras aplicaciones, como se desarrolla a continuación. It should be noted that cancer is, behind cardiovascular diseases, the second leading cause of death in the world, causing 14 million deaths in 2012 To treat this disease, anticancer agents capable of selectively attacking cancer cells are left leaving cells healthy unchanged. In this sense, lipid derivatives of different nature have demonstrated their antitumor efficacy, among other applications, as developed below.
A lo largo de los últimos años se han desarrollado derivados de fosfolípidos que han tenido diferentes aplicaciones tales como transdérmicas y transmembranales (US5,985,292 de Fournerou et al.), ( Journal of Controlled Release, 1998, 51, 259-267), anticancerígenas o para el tratamiento o prevención de la arterioesclerosis y otros trastornos relacionados así como procesos inflamatorios, enfermedades autoinmunes y trastornos proliferativos entre otras. In recent years phospholipid derivatives have been developed that have had different applications such as transdermal and transmembrane (US5,985,292 from Fournerou et al.), (Journal of Controlled Release, 1998, 51, 259-267), anti-cancer or for the treatment or prevention of atherosclerosis and other related disorders as well as inflammatory processes, autoimmune diseases and proliferative disorders among others.
En la presente invención también se ha detectado actividad frente a diferentes tipos de células tumorales. In the present invention activity has also been detected against different types of tumor cells.
Por lo tanto, se hace necesario a la luz de lo anteriormente expuesto, buscar nuevas formulaciones químicas, económicas, sintéticamente sencillas de llevar a cabo y con una alta actividad frente a diferentes líneas de células tumorales. Therefore, it is necessary in the light of the above, to look for new chemical formulations, economical, synthetically simple to carry out and with a high activity against different tumor cell lines.
