LONDON— GlaxoSmithKline PLC said it would stop seeking patents for its drugs in low-income countries, a move the drugmaker said could help the world’s poorest people access copycat versions of its medicines at affordable prices.

The U.K.-based company said it would take this approach in low-income and least-developed countries, a group totaling around 85 nations. In so-called lower-middle-income countries, a group of 51 nations that includes Vietnam, Cameroon and Sri Lanka, it said it would file patents but aim to grant licenses to generic manufacturers to supply low-cost versions of its drugs in those markets in return for a small royalty.

Glaxo previously filed patents in most lower-middle-income countries, and in low-income nations where a patent office exists. But that “patchwork” approach meant that generic drugmakers held back from manufacturing copycat medicines for these markets owing to the risk of being sued by pharmaceutical companies, according to Glaxo Chief Executive Andrew Witty.,,,,,,,,,continue reading

DRUG REGULATORY AFFAIRS INTERNATIONAL

In a press release the EDQM has announced that the new monograph draft on Water for Injection (169) had been adopted. Read on to learn more about the production of WFI with membrane systems.

http://www.gmp-compliance.org/enews_05274_EDQM-adopts-revised-monograph-for-WFI-allowing-non-destillation-techniques_15254,15160,15090,15267,Z-PEM_n.html

In a press release, the European Pharmacopeia Commission has announced that the revised monograph on Water for Injection (WFI) had been adopted.

According to the revised monograph, it will be allowed in Europe in future to produce WFI with a purification method equivalent to distillation like e.g. reverse osmosis coupled with appropriate techniques. Moreover, the EDQM declares that a notice to the respective supervisory authorities will be required when a “non-distillation” technology is used for the production of WFI. Besides, the EDQM points out that it is not only a matter of equivalence of a specification but rather the robustness of the purification of WFI. Therefore, Annex 1, which is currently under revision, will also include requirements with…

Tripeptide Glycyl-L-Prolyl-L-Glutamate (Gly-Pro-Glu or GPE)

March 31, 2016 10:35 am / 1 Comment on Tripeptide Glycyl-L-Prolyl-L-Glutamate (Gly-Pro-Glu or GPE)

Synonym: GPE, Glycyl-prolyl-glutamic acid, (1-3)IGF-1

Pfizer (Originator)

Gly-Pro-Glu is a neuroprotective compound and the N-terminal tripeptide of IGF-1. Gly-Pro-Glu is neuroprotective after central administration in animal models of neurodegenerative processes, such as Huntington’s, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s diseases, and varies acute brain injury animal models. The neuroprotective activity is not related to its affinity to glutamate receptor. Findings indicate that GPE mimics insulin-like growth factor I effects on the somatostatin system through a mechanism independent of β-amyloid clearance that involves modulation of calcium and glycogen synthase kinase 3β signaling.

GPE is a naturally occurring peptide fragment which had been in phase III clinical trials at Neuren Pharmaceuticals for use as prophylactic neuroprotection for patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) and valvuloplasty surgery. Although clinical evaluation in Australia continues, phase III trials evaluating the compound in the U.S. were discontinued based on negative results. The compound is found in normal brain tissue and, when injected intravenously, has been shown to act by multiple pathways to protect brain tissue from injury. The drug was originally developed by Pfizer, but rights were transferred to Neuren pursuant to a proprietary agreement between the companies.

When amino acids join together (forming short groups called polypeptides, or much longer chains called proteins) the amine group of one amino acid joins with the carboxyl group of the next, making a peptide bond. These bonds don’t ionise at different pHs, but can be hydrolised — broken — reforming the amino acids. GPE is formed from the amino acids glycine, proline and glutamic acid:

This tripeptide has 3 pH-sensitive groups, each with its own pK_a. What the university chemists needed to do was work out what form GPE is in when it is active in the brain, what parts of the molecule are critical to its effectiveness, and how to ‘tweak’ the molecule (by changing the side chains) so that it will remain in the brain for longer than the naturally-occurring substance. They also needed to make sure the final compound passes through the blood-brain barrier (that prevents most substances in the blood from entering and affecting the brain). If possible, they also wanted a compound that could be taken in pill form without being broken down in the stomach. It was also essential that the compound was safe for people to take!

Neuren Pharmaceuticals

After initial work on GPE at the university, the research was passed to a spin-off research group called Neuren Pharmaceuticals Ltd, which takes compounds discovered by the University of Auckland and develops them into medicines. Neuren developed GPE intoGlypromate® and are working with researchers in the US (including the US Military, who have a keen interest in a medicine that will reduce brain damage after head injuries) to test the compound on patients. There is considerable interest in Glypromate® world-wide, because at present there is nothing that reduces cell death after brain injuries. The chances of winning a race are pretty high when you’re the only competitor!Glypromate® is being tested on heart-bypass patients because up to 70% of bypass patients are affected mentally after their surgery. It’s thought that tiny clots form after the heart is restarted, and that these travel to the brain and cause mini-strokes. Unlike naturally-occurring strokes, or the brain damage caused by accident or war, the bypass surgery is planned, so before and after tests can be done on the patients to see exactly what effect the treatment has. Early results look very promising.

Glypromate is just one of the compounds Neuren is working on. Others may develop into treatments for Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease or Alzheimer’s Disease as well as various kinds of cancer. The company’s links with overseas research groups mean that compounds developed in New Zealand are able to be tested in the US and gain the FDA approval which will allow them to be used in most countries in the world.

The tripeptide Glycyl-L-Prolyl-L-Glutamate (Gly-Pro-Glu or GPE) is a naturally occurring peptide, which is proteolytically cleaved from insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). IGF-1 is a potent neurotrophic factor produced endogenously in damaged regions of the brain. It has been postulated that some of the neuroprotective actions of IGF-1 are mediated by GPE although the precise mechanism of action remains unclear. GPE has a different mode of action to IGF-1 as GPE does not bind to the IGF-1 receptor. Rather, GPE has been shown to bind with low affinity to the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor and also elicit a biological response via other mechanisms. GPE facilitates the release of dopamine through interaction with the NMDA receptor but GPE stimulated acetylcholine release is via an unknown, non-NMDA pathway.

It has been demonstrated that GPE can act as a neuronal rescue agent following brain injury or disease, including hypoxic-ischemic brain injury, NMDA challenge, chemical toxins and in animal models of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease. Analogs of GPE are thus of interest in the development of novel pharmaceutical agents for the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) injuries and neurodegenerative disorders among others.

CURRENT STATUS

Neuren Pharmaceuticals was developing Glypromate (glycine-proline glutamate), a naturally occurring small-molecule neuroprotectant derived from IGF-1 which inhibits caspase III dependent apoptosis, for the potential treatment of neurodegenerative diseases by iv infusion. By June 2008, a phase III trial had begun . However, in December 2008, the company discontinued further development of the drug after it failed to show an observable effect [972907]. In November 2005, the company was seeking to outlicense the drug [771417].

Neuren is also investigating the Glypromate analog, NNZ-2566 for similar indications.

In August 2006, Neuren expected Glypromate to be eligible for Orphan Drug status for neurodegenerative diseases and planned to apply for Fast Track status for the drug.

SYDNEY, Australia, Sept. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Neuren Pharmaceuticals today announced that physicians from Madigan Army Medical Center (Madigan) in Tacoma, Washington, will conduct an investigator- initiated Phase 2 trial to determine the safety and efficacy of Glypromate(R) in reducing brain injury caused by out of hospital cardiac arrest. The trial will start in mid-2007 and will be managed by The Henry M. Jackson Foundation for the Advancement of Military Medicine (Jackson Foundation) in consultation with the clinical investigators at Madigan.

The proposed study will be an investigator-initiated study which means that the Investigational New Drug (IND) application will be submitted to the FDA by the Army investigators rather than by Neuren. Neuren will provide the drug product as well as access to preclinical, clinical and regulatory documents related to Glypromate(R). The Company’s only financial commitment will be compensation to the Jackson Foundation for administrative costs incurred in coordinating the study. Neuren will retain all commercial rights to Glypromate(R) in these indications.

Cardiac arrest involves the sudden, complete cessation of heart function and circulation leading rapidly to neurological and other organ system damage. Among patients who survive, the consequences of neurological damage resulting from lack of blood flow and oxygen to the brain represent the primary adverse outcomes. This occurs in up to 80% of survivors and causes cognitive impairment such as occurs in patients undergoing major cardiac surgery, the focus for Neuren’s upcoming Phase 3 study with Glypromate(R). However recovery without residual neurological damage after cardiac arrest is rare.

There are no drugs approved to reduce the neurological damage caused by cardiac arrest. Neuren believes that Glypromate(R) for this indication will be eligible for Orphan Drug designation. Orphan Drug designation provides for a period of market exclusivity following approval as well as possible access to US government grants. In addition, because of the serious nature of neurological impairment resulting from cardiac arrest and the lack of available drug therapy, Neuren intends to apply for Fast Track designation which provides for accelerated clinical development and review.

While the Army’s investigator-initiated trial will focus on out of hospital cardiac arrest, if this trial is successful, Neuren, the Jackson Foundation and the Army investigators are considering additional trials of Glypromate(R) to reduce brain damage resulting from related conditions including in-hospital cardiac arrest and treatment of patients with ventricular fibrillation, the heart rhythm disturbance associated with more than 75% of cardiac arrests.

Under the agreement, the Jackson Foundation will provide support to the Army investigators in clinical trial preparations, protocol development, obtaining human subjects clearance, coordination of patient enrolment, data management and analysis, and preparation of study reports.

Mr David Clarke, CEO of Neuren said: “This is a very important development for Neuren in that it reflects a growing appreciation of the potential for Glypromate(R) to reduce neurological damage. It also, of course, reinforces the value and strength of Neuren’s relationship with the US Army physicians and scientists. Cardiac arrest is a devastating clinical event and one for which a drug to reduce the neurological consequences is clearly needed. The addition of this trial will now give Neuren a very strong and cost effective portfolio of clinical trials in 2007 — a Phase 3 and a Phase 2 for Glypromate(R) and the two Phase 2 trials with NNZ-2566.”

Approximately 300,000 deaths result from cardiac arrest in the US each year, making cardiac arrest one of the leading causes of death. According to the American Heart Association, each year approximately 160,000 people in the US experience sudden cardiac arrest outside of a hospital or in a hospital emergency department.

Neuren estimates that the number of patients in the US that could be treated for out of hospital cardiac arrest and related indications is approximately 400,000 which could represent a potential market of US$800 million.

Neuren’s NNZ-2566 shows clinical benefit in Rett syndrome trial

FRAXA Research Foundation Logo

Promising results in Phase 2 clinical trial

by Michael Tranfaglia, MD
FRAXA Medical Director

This isn’t a Fragile X trial, but the Neuren compound, NNZ-2566, that is in trials now for Fragile X has shown significant positive effects in a Phase 2 trial for Rett syndrome.

The results of the trial are interesting, in that improvement was seen a Rett syndrome-specific rating scale compared to placebo, and there was also improvement noted on the CGI-I (Clinical Global Impression of Improvement) and Caregiver Top 3 Concerns. However, there was no effect seen on ABC scores (Aberrant Behavior Checklist) compared to placebo. Many in the Fragile X field have noted the inadequacies of the ABC; indeed, it was never designed or intended to be an outcome measure for clinical trials. In this case, a Rett-specific rating scale called the Motor-Behavior Assessment (MBA) showed a statistically significant and clinically meaningful treatment effect at the highest dose of the Neuren compound compared to placebo.

This is great news for those of us in the Fragile X community for several reasons:

It shows that this compound really does something—it seems to have useful properties in actual patients, and that’s not trivial.
It demonstrates that disease-specific symptoms can improve significantly on the drug, and that improvement can be measured in a relatively short clinical trial.
It shows that a drug can have beneficial effects on core features of a genetically based developmental disorder, even if the more general rating scales (like the ABC) show no change.

–
This last point is strongly reminiscent of the experience of many families and clinicians in recent Fragile X clinical trials, where the drugs showed no advantage compared to placebo based on rating scales, but genuine improvement was noted in many subjects, with significant deterioration upon discontinuation of the drugs. Thus the calls for improved rating scales which can “capture” these core, disease-specific therapeutic effects. The NeurenFragile X trial is using some Fragile X-specific outcome measures which will hopefully lead to similar positive results.

The fact that this result is good news for Neuren also means that the company should remain financially viable for longer, so that they can continue the development of this compound for a number of indications—more “shots on goal”.

Of course, the usual caveats apply: this was a small study, and these results need to be replicated in a larger Phase 3 trial. Still, there’s a realistic possibility that we may see a similar result in Fragile X!

IACS-9571 is a potent and selective inhibitor TRIM24 and BRPF1. The bromodomain containing proteins TRIM24 (Tripartite motif containing protein 24) and BRPF1 (bromodomain and PHD finger containing protein 1) are involved in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression and have been implicated in human cancer. Overexpression of TRIM24 correlates with poor patient prognosis and BRPF1 is a scaffolding protein required for the assembly of histone acetyltransferase complexes, where the gene of MOZ (monocytic leukemia zinc finger protein) was first identified as a recurrent fusion partner in leukemia patients (8p11 chromosomal rearrangements). IACS-9571 has low nanomolar affinities for TRIM24 and BRPF1 (ITC Kd = 31 nM and 14 nM, respectively). With its excellent cellular potency (EC50 = 50 nM) and favorable pharmacokinetic properties (F = 29%), IACS-9571 is a high-quality chemical probe for the evaluation of TRIM24 and/or BRPF1 bromodomain function in vitro and in vivo.

The bromodomain containing proteins TRIM24 (tripartite motif containing protein 24) and BRPF1 (bromodomain and PHD finger containing protein 1) are involved in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression and have been implicated in human cancer. Overexpression of TRIM24 correlates with poor patient prognosis, and BRPF1 is a scaffolding protein required for the assembly of histone acetyltransferase complexes, where the gene of MOZ (monocytic leukemia zinc finger protein) was first identified as a recurrent fusion partner in leukemia patients (8p11 chromosomal rearrangements). Here, we present the structure guided development of a series of N,N-dimethylbenzimidazolone bromodomain inhibitors through the iterative use of X-ray cocrystal structures. A unique binding mode enabled the design of a potent and selective inhibitor 8i (IACS-9571) with low nanomolar affinities for TRIM24 and BRPF1 (ITC K_d = 31 nM and ITC K_d = 14 nM, respectively). With its excellent cellular potency (EC₅₀ = 50 nM) and favorable pharmacokinetic properties (F = 29%), 8i is a high-quality chemical probe for the evaluation of TRIM24 and/or BRPF1 bromodomain function in vitro and in vivo.

Bromodomains are an important class of chromatin remodeling proteins that recognize acetylated lysine residues on histone tails. As epigenetic targets they regulate gene transcription and offer a new way to treat diseas es, particularly in inflammation and oncology. The bromodomain and extra- terminal (BET) family has emerged as an important and druggable example of this class of proteins with the successful entry of small- molecule inhibitors into the clinic. Other families of bromodomains are only starting to be explored, such as the Tripartite Motif -containing 24 protein (TRIM24) and bromodomain- PHD finger protein 1 (BRPF1). Both proteins contain a dual PHD -bromo motif which have a role in recognizing specific histone mar ks. TRIM24 recognizes the dual histone marks of unmodified H3K4 and acetylated- H3K23 within the same histone tail. TRIM24 is a potent co- activator of ER -alpha and overexpression of TRIM24 has been linked to poor survival rates in breast cancer patients.

This presentation will describe the structure guided development of a series of N,N- dimethyl -benzimidazolones through the iterative use of X -ray cocrystal structures. A unique binding mode enabled the design of a potent and selective inhibitor (IACS -9571) with low nanomolar affinities for TRIM24 and BRPF1 (ITC Kd = 31 nM and ITC Kd = 14 nM, respectively). With its excellent cellular potency (EC 50 = 50 nM) and favorable pharmacokinetic properties, IACS -9571 is a high- quality chemical probe for the evaluation of TRIM24 and/or BRPF1 bromodomain function in vitro and in vivo

A SGLT-2 inhibitor potentially for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

CAS N. 1461750-27-5

The structures of dapagliflozin and 6-deoxydapagliflozin (1)

,deletion of the 6-OH in the sugar moiety of dapagliflozin led to the discovery of a more potent SGLT2 inhibitor, 6-deoxydapagliflozin (1, ). In an in vitro assay, 1 was a more active SGLT2 inhibitor, with IC ₅₀ = 0.67 nM against human SGLT2 (hSGLT2), as compared with 1.1 nM for dapagliflozin, leading to the identification of 1 as the most active SGLT2 inhibitor discovered so far in this field. Also in an in vivo assay, 1 also introduced more urinary glucose in a rat urinary glucose excretion test (UGE) and exhibited more potent blood glucose inhibitory activity in a rat oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) than dapagliflozin.

Given the fact that 6-dexoydapagliflozin (1) is a very promising SGLT2 inhibitor that could be used to treat type 2 diabetes, led to preclinical trials

Design of SGLT2 Inhibitors for the Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes: A History Driven by Biology to Chemistry.

Cai W, Jiang L, Xie Y, Liu Y, Liu W, Zhao G¹.

Abstract

A brief history of the design of sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors is reviewed. The design of O-glucoside SGLT2 inhibitors by structural modification of phlorizin, a naturally occurring O-glucoside, in the early stage was a process mainly driven by biology with anticipation of improving SGLT2/SGLT1 selectivity and increasing metabolic stability. Discovery of dapagliflozin, a pioneering C-glucoside SGLT2 inhibitor developed by Bristol-Myers Squibb, represents an important milestone in this history. In the second stage, the design of C-glycoside SGLT2 inhibitors by modifications of the aglycone and glucose moiety of dapagliflozin, an original structural template for almost all C-glycoside SGLT2 inhibitors, was mainly driven by synthetic organic chemistry due to the challenge of designing dapagliflozin derivatives that are patentable, biologically active and synthetically accessible. Structure-activity relationships (SAR) of the SGLT2 inhibitors are also discussed.

The synthetic route to the target compound 1 is shown in Scheme 3. The starting material methyl 2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-6-deoxy-6-iodo-α–d-glucopyranoside (3) was prepared from commercially available methyl α–d-glucopyranoside (2) according to a known method [5, 6].

Iodide 3 was reductively deiodinated to give 4 in 91 % yield under hydrogenolytic conditions using 10 % Pd/C as catalyst in the presence of Et₃N as base in THF/MeOH at room temperature.

when the iodide 3 was treated with Barton–McCombie reagent (n-Bu₃SnH/AIBN) [7] in toluene at room temperature no reaction occurred; however, when the reaction was carried out at elevated temperatures, such as reflux, a complex mixture formed with only a trace amount (3 %, entry 1) of the desired product 4.

When the iodide 3 was treated with LiAlH₄ in THF at 0 °C to room temperature, another complex mixture was produced with only a trace amount (2 %, entry 2) of 4.

When Pd(OH)₂ was used as the hydrogenolysis catalyst instead of 10 % Pd/C, the desired 4 was indeed formed (14 %, entry 4), but most of the starting material was converted to a few more polar byproducts, which were believed to result from the cleavage of at least one of the benzyl groups.

Thromboembolic diseases remain the leading cause of death in developed countries despite the availability of anticoagulants such as warfarin (COUMADIN®), heparin, low molecular weight heparins (LMWH), synthetic pentasaccharides, and antiplatelet agents such as aspirin and clopidogrel (PLAVIX®).

Current anti-platelet therapies have limitations including increased risk of bleeding as well as partial efficacy (relative cardiovascular risk reduction in the 20 to

30% range). Thus, discovering and developing safe and efficacious oral or parenteral antithrombotics for the prevention and treatment of a wide range of thromboembolic disorders remains an important goal.

Alpha-thrombin is the most potent known activator of platelet aggregation and degranulation. Activation of platelets is causally involved in atherothrombotic vascular occlusions. Thrombin activates platelets by cleaving G-protein coupled receptors termed protease activated receptors (PARs). PARs provide their own cryptic ligand present in the N-terminal extracellular domain that is unmasked by proteolytic cleavage, with subsequent intramolecular binding to the receptor to induce signaling (tethered ligand mechanism; Coughlin, S.R., Nature, 407:258-264 (2000)). Synthetic peptides that mimic the sequence of the newly formed N-terminus upon proteolytic activation can induce signaling independent of receptor cleavage. Platelets are a key player in atherothrombotic events. Human platelets express at least two thrombin receptors, commonly referred to as PARI and PAR4. Inhibitors of PARI have been investigated extensively, and several compounds, including vorapaxar and atopaxar have advanced into late stage clinical trials. Recently, in the TRACER phase III trial in ACS patients, vorapaxar did not significantly reduce cardiovascular events, but significantly increased the risk of major bleeding (Tricoci, P. et al, N. Eng. J. Med., 366(l):20-33 (2012). Thus, there remains a need to discover new antiplatelet agents with increased efficacy and reduced bleeding side effects.

There are several early reports of preclinical studies of PAR4 inhibitors. Lee, F-Y. et al., “Synthesis of l-Benzyl-3-(5′-hydroxymethyl-2′-furyl)indazole Analogues as Novel Antiplatelet Agents”, J. Med. Chem., 44(22):3746-3749 (2001) discloses in the abstract that the compound

“was found to be a selective and potent inhibitor or protease-activated receptor type 4 (PAR4)-dependent platelet activation. ”

Compound 58 is also referred to as YD-3 in Wu, C-C. et al, “Selective Inhibition of Protease-activated Receptor 4-dependent Platelet Activation by YD-3”, Thromb. Haemost., 87: 1026-1033 (2002). Also, see Chen, H.S. et al, “Synthesis and platelet activity”, J. Bioorg. Med. Chem., 16: 1262-1278 (2008).

EP1166785 Al and EP0667345 disclose various pyrazole derivatives which are useful as inhibitors of platelet aggregation.\

A solution of 2-(benzyloxy)-6-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde (Example 1C, 3.46 g, 13.4 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (50 mL) was treated with powdered anhydrous cesium carbonate (4.58 g, 14.05 mmol) added all at once. The resulting mixture was stirred in vacuo for 10 min. and then flushed with nitrogen. The reaction flask was placed in a water bath (22 °C) and treated with chloroacetone (1.74 g, 18.7 mmol) added dropwise over 5 min. The resulting mixture was then stirred at 22 °C for 18 h (no starting aldehyde left by tic and formation of the intermediate alkylated aldehyde). The solid was filtered and washed with N,N-dimethylformamide. The filtrate was evaporated in vacuo and the residual oil was diluted with ethyl acetate (300 mL), washed with cold 0.1 N hydrochloric acid, saturated sodium bicarbonate and brine. After drying over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, evaporation of the solvent gave a thick syrup. This syrup was diluted with tetrahydrofuran (50 mL) and ethyl acetate (50 mL), treated p- toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (0.2 g) and stirred at 20 °C for 1 h (tic indicated complete cyclization of the intermediate alkylated aldehyde to the benzofuran). The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (300 mL), washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate and brine. After drying over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, evaporation of the solvent gave a thick syrup. Chromatography on silica gel (4 x 12 cm, elution toluene – ethyl acetate 2-4%) gave 3.51 g (88% yield) of the title benzofuran as a yellow solid.
