Atrasentan is an experimental drug that is being studied for the treatment of various types of cancer,[1] including non-small cell lung cancer.[2] It is also being investigated as a therapy for diabetic kidney disease.

Atrasentan failed a phase 3 trial for prostate cancer in patients unresponsive to hormone therapy.[3] A second trial confirmed this finding.[4]

It is an endothelin receptor antagonist selective for subtype A (ETA). While other drugs of this type (sitaxentan, ambrisentan) exploit the vasoconstrictive properties of endothelin and are mainly used for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension, atrasentan blocks endothelin induced cell proliferation.

In April 2014, de Zeeuw et al. showed that 0.5 mg and 1.25 mg of atrasentan reduced urinary albumin by 35 and 38% respectively with modest side effects. Patients also had decreased home blood pressures (but no change in office readings) decrease total cholesterol and LDL. Patients in the 1.25 mg dose group had increased weight gain which was presumably due to increased edema and had to withdraw from the study more than the placebo or 0.5 mg dose group.[5] Reductions in proteinuria have been associated with beneficial patient outcomes in diabetic kidney disease with other interventions but is not an accepted end-point by the FDA.

The recently initiated SONAR trial[6] will determine if atrasentan reduces kidney failure in diabetic kidney disease.

Useful for treating nephropathy and chronic kidney disease associated with Type II diabetes. For a prior filing see WO2015006219 , claiming the stable solid composition in the form of a tablet comprising atrasentan and an anti-oxidant. AbbVie (following its spin-out from Abbott), is developing atrasentan (phase III; February 2015) for treating chronic kidney disease, including diabetic nephropathy.

The Michael reaction between 3,4-(methylenedioxy)-beta-nitrostyrene (I) and ethyl (4-methoxybenzoyl)acetate (II) in the presence of DBU gave adduct (III) as a mixture of isomers. Hydrogenation of this nitro ketone over Raney-Ni afforded, after spontaneous cyclization of the resulting amino ketone, the pyrroline (IV). Further reduction of the imine with NaBH3CN yielded a mixture of three pyrrolidine isomers. The desired trans-trans isomer (VI) could not be separated from the cis-trans isomer by column chromatography. However, the pure cis-cis compound (V) was isomerized to (VI) with NaOEt in refluxing EtOH. The protection of the amine as the tert-butyl carbamate with Boc2O, and saponification of the ester function provided the racemic acid (VII). Resolution of (VII) was achieved by conversion to the mixed anhydride (VIII) with pivaloyl chloride, followed by condensation with the lithium salt of (S)-4-benzyl-2-oxazolidinone (IX), and chromatographic separation of the resulting diastereomeric imides. Alternatively, racemic (VII) could be resolved by crystallization of its salt with (R)-a-methylbenzylamine. Removal of the Boc group from the appropriate isomer (X) with HCl in dioxan, followed by alkylation with N,N-dibutylbromoacetamide (XI) in the presence of i-Pr2NEt furnished the pyrrolidinylacetamide (XII). Finally, hydrolysis of the imide with lithium hydroperoxide provided the target acid.

Cyclization of 5-(2-nitrovinyl)-1,3-benzodioxole (I) with ethyl 2-(4-methoxybenzoyl)acetate (II) by means of DBU in THF gives the 4-nitrobutyrate (III), which is reduced with H2 over Ni in ethanol to the corresponding amine, which undergoes immediate cyclization to give the pyrroline carboxylate (IV). Reduction of pyrroline (IV) with NaCNBH3 in THF affords the expected pyrrolidine as a mixture of the (trans,trans)-(V), (cis,cis)-(VI) and (cis,trans)-(VII) isomers. Using chromatography on silica gel, only the (cis,cis)-isomer (VI) is separated and completely isomerized to the (trans,trans)-isomer (V) by treatment with NaOEt in refluxing ethanol. Pure (trans,trans)-isomer (V) or the remaining mixture of (trans,trans)-(V) and (cis,trans)-(VII) is N-protected with Boc2O in dichloromethane to provide a mixture of carbamates. Then hydrolysis of the esters is performed with NaOH in ethanol/water at room temperature, and under these conditions only the (trans,trans)-isomer hydrolyzes, giving the racemic (trans,trans)-acid (VIII). Unreacted (cis,trans)-ester (VII) is easily removed by conventional methods. Condensation of the racemic acid (VIII) with the lithium salt of the chiral oxazolidinone (IX) by means of pivaloyl chloride yields the corresponding amide as a diastereomeric mixture of (X) and (XI) that are separated by chromatography. The desired isomer (XI) is deprotected with HCl in dioxane to afford the chiral pyrrolidine (XII), which is condensed with 2-bromo-N,N-dibutylacetamide (XIII) by means of diisopropylamine in acetonitrile to give the adduct (XIV). Finally, the chiral auxiliary of (XIV) is eliminated by means of LiOOH (LiOH + H2O2) in water.

Condensation of 1,3-benzodioxole-5-carbaldehyde (XV) with nitromethane by means of ammonium acetate in HOAc gives the nitrostyrene (I), which is condensed with ethyl 2-(4-methoxybenzoyl)acetate (II) [obtained by reaction of acetophenone (XVI), diethyl carbonate and potassium tert-amyloxide] by means of NaOEt in THF to yield the 4-nitrobutyrate (III). Reductive cyclization of (III) with H2 over Raney-Ni in THF affords the (cis, cis)-pyrrolidine (VI), which is isomerized to the (trans,trans)-isomer (V) by means of NaOEt in refluxing ethanol. This racemic ester (V) is submitted to optical resolution with (S)-(+)-mandelic acid to provide the pure chiral ester (XVII). This compound is condensed with 2-bromo-N,N-dibutylacetamide (XIII) [obtained by reaction of 2-bromoacetyl bromide (XVIII) with dibutylamine (XIX) in toluene] by means of DIEA in acetonitrile to give the ethyl ester (XX), which is finally hydrolyzed with NaOH in hot ethanol.

Condensation of ketoester (I) with nitrovinyl benzodioxole (II) in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene gave adduct (III). Hydrogenation of the nitro group of (III) over Raney Nickel with concomitant cyclization yielded dihydropyrrole (IV). Further reduction of (IV) with sodium cyanoborohydride provided a mixture of diastereomeric pyrrolidines. Chromatographic separation removed the cis,cis isomer, affording a mixture of trans,trans and cis,trans products (V). N-Alkylation of the pyrrolidine (V) with N,N-dibutyl bromoacetamide (VI) furnished (VIIa-b). Finally, selective hydrolysis of the ester group from the trans,trans isomer produced a mixture of cis,trans ester (VIII) and the target trans,trans acid, which were readily separated by fractional extraction.

Reaction of 2-(1,3-dioxol-5-yl)acetic acid (XXI) with pivaloyl chloride and TEA gives the corresponding anhydride (XXII), which is condensed with the chiral oxazolidinone (XXIII) by means of n-BuLi in THF to yield the amide (XXIV). Condensation of (XXIV) with 2-bromoacetic acid tert-butyl ester (XXV) by means of NaHMDS in THF affords the adduct (XXVI). Elimination of the chiral auxiliary of (XXVI) by means of LiOOH in THF/water provides the chiral succinic acid hemiester (XXVII) (93% ee), which is selectively reduced with BH3璗HF complex to give the 4-hydroxysuccinate (XXVIII). Reaction of succinate (XXVIII) with 4-chlorophenylsulfonyl chloride, TEA and DMAP in dichloromethane yields the sulfonate (XXIX), which is condensed with 4-methoxybenzaldoxime (XXX) by means of Cs2CO3 in hot acetonitrile to afford the oxime ether (XXXI). Transesterification of the tert-butyl ester of (XXXI) with trimethyl orthoformate and p-toluenesulfonic acid in hot methanol provides the methyl ester (XXXII), which is cyclized by means of trimethylsilyl triflate and tributylamine in dichloroethane to afford a 9:1 diastereomeric mixture of perhydro-1,2-oxazines (XXXIII) and (XXXIV) which is easily separated. The reductive N-O-bond cleavage of the major oxazine diastereomer (XXXIII) by means of Zn/HOAc or H2 over Pd/C gives the trisubstituted 4-aminobutanol (XXXV), which is cyclized by means of CBr4, PPh3 and TEA to yield chiral pyrrolidine (XXXVI) (4). Finally, pyrrolidine (XXXVI) is alkylated with N,N-dibutyl-2-bromoacetamide (XIII) followed by ester hydrolysis as before.

In May 2014, the company planned to file an NDA in the first half of 2016, and at that time, approval was expected in the first half of 2017

Bremelanotide Listeni/ˌbrɛmɨˈlænətd/ (formerly PT-141) is a compound under drug development by Palatin Technologies as a treatment for female sexual dysfunction, hemorrhagic shock and reperfusion injury. It functions by activating the melanocortin receptors MC1R and MC4R, to modulate inflammation and limiting ischemia.[2] It was originally tested for intranasal administration in treating female sexual dysfunction but this application was temporarily discontinued in 2008 after concerns were raised over adverse side effects of increased blood pressure. As of December 2014, Palatin is conducting a human Phase 3 study[3] using a subcutaneous drug delivery system that appears to have little effect on blood pressure.

Palatin, in collaboration with European licensee Gedeon Richter, is developing an sc formulation of the synthetic peptide bremelanotide (PT-141; BMT), a melanocortin MCR-4 agonist and a synthetically modified analog of PT-14, also analogous to alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH), for the potential treatment of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) including hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD)

The Bremelanotide or PT-141 is a mean that explains the revolution caused by the medical world in a silent but attractive manner in the human health related study. Bremelanotide is the latest arrival from the company called Palatin Technologies which forms the basic treatment for the hemorrhagic shock and reperfusion injury.( In short about the company, the Palatin Technologies is the owner of this research and is located in New Jersey. Hence this medicine is a Jersey based Product. And regarding the product under research, is waiting for the approval from the Food and Drug Association. Once this is done, the company has targeted to reach those customers, whom the Viagra has approached. This has the effect of helping the male patients suffering with an erectile dysfunction syndrome. Also if it gets the approval as a treatment measure for the female sexual dysfunction, then this medicine is expected to bring a relief to the post-menopausal and also supports or provides their sexual happiness and also they are checking regarding thehyposexual desire disorder. This is expected to be a blockbuster, if released. So this medicine is waiting for a confirmation as well as an approval.

In February 2015, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, open-label extension, phase III trial (NCT02338960; BMT-302, Reconnect Study) was initiated in the US in premenopausal women (expected n = 550) with hypoactive sexual desire disorder to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bremelanotide. At that time, the trial was expected to complete in July 2017

Study – Potential Use Erectile Dysfunction

One study has explored the potential use of bremelanotide as a replacement for natural peptide melanocyte stimulating hormones for the sake of treating erectile dysfunction.

  • The goal of this study was to determine if the effects of bremelanotide stimulating sexual desire that was shown in male rats could be replicated in the brains of female rats. To do this, hormone primed female rats in a control group and a test group that were treated with bremelanotide and known to have consummatory sexual disorders was introduced to a group of male rats and the reactions were measured.
  • Heart racing, hops and darts, pacing and customary sexual behaviors were assessed while the brain was stimulated. The stimulation of specific molecular markers within the brain was examined to determine arousal in the female subjects.
  • Results indicated that the females saw an increase in sexual behavior when bremelanotide was applied to the limbic and hypothalamic regions of their brains. It is suggested that this was because the chemical that stimulated the mPOA terminals, leading to activated dopamine in the brain.

Additional study is necessary to determine the extent of the effects bremelanotide has on the brain and natural stimulating chemicals.

Bremelanotide and Ongoing Research

This is an advanced research involved even now. This functions by activating the Melanocortin, which is a group of peptide hormones which includes the adrenocorticotropic hormone and also the different forms of the melanocyte stimulating hormones. These melanocortins are produced or prepared from the proopiomelanocortin in the pituitary glands. The melanocortin releases or exert their effects by making a bind with the melanocortin and thereby activating it).The Bremelanotide functions by activating the melanocortin receptors and thereby makes a modulation in the inflammation. This is actually produced for making use in treating the sexual dysfunction. Due to certain reasons; the process of researching was kept under hold in recently, since it created some adverse side effects of increased blood pressure. In the chemistry of the preparation of the bremelanotide, the Peptide Melanaton II forms the basic compound. This compound is tested using a sunless tanning agent.

The actual information about the peptide melanaton has the effect of making sexual arousal and speed as well as sudden erections and some other side effects. However, there are several other measures taken to test the property of the same under several other health situations to make a detailed study about the chemical compound structure to make a change in the combination of the chemical structure. This medicine has made a revolution in the field of science of the human structure. When made a deep verification of the compound structure of the chemical study showed the following information. The structural design has an appearance of white colored powder like material, which has an accurate purity of nearly 98%. The actual molecular weight of the compound formed is around 1025.2. This compound has the collective share of Amino acids in the composition, peptide and acetate contents also.

The study of the compound structure PT-141 has an enhanced support of making a recombination that produces a different profile of the same medicine but in a different standard with different properties that may support the human requirement.

Bremelanotide PT-141 is known for its aphrodisiac properties

Development

Bremelanotide was developed from the peptide hormone Melanotan II which underwent testing as a sunless tanningagent. In initial testing, Melanotan II did induce tanning but additionally caused sexual arousal and spontaneous erections as unexpected side effects in nine out of the ten original male volunteer test subjects.[4]

In studies, bremelanotide was shown to induce lordosis in an animal model[5] and was also effective in treating sexual dysfunction in both men (erectile dysfunction or impotence) and women (sexual arousal disorder). Unlike Viagra and other related medications, it does not act upon the vascular system, but directly increases sexual desire via the nervous system.[6]

A Phase III clinical trial was scheduled to begin in the first half of 2007, but was delayed until August 2007. On August 30, Palatin announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration had expressed serious concerns regarding therisk/benefit ratio of bremelanotide with regards to the side effect of increased blood pressure. The FDA stated that it would consider alternate uses for bremelanotide, including as a treatment for individuals who do not respond to more established ED treatments. However, On May 13, 2008, Palatin Technologies announced it had “discontinued development of Bremelanotide for the treatment of male and female sexual dysfunction” while concurrently announcing plans to develop it as a treatment for hemorrhagic shock instead.[7] The company additionally announced intentions to focus its attention on another compound, PL-6983, that causes lower blood pressure in animal models.[8]Palatin has since re-initiated Bremelanotide studies for ED and FSD using a subcutaneous delivery method. On August 12, 2009, the company announced that in a double-blind study of 54 volunteers bremelanotide failed to evoke the hypertensive side effects seen with the nasal delivery system used in prior studies, concluding that “variability of uptake” inherent in intranasal administration of the drug resulted in “increases in blood pressure and gastrointestinal events…primarily related to high plasma levels in [only] a subset of patients” and that subcutaneous administration of the drug circumvented the potential for this side effect.[8] Palatin has completed a human Phase 2B study utilizing subcutaneous administration and reported positive results.[9]

Structure

Sexual dysfunction, including both penile erectile dysfunction or impotence and female sexual dysfunction, are common medical problems. Significant effort has been devoted over the last twenty or more years to develop methods, devices and compounds for treatment of sexual dysfunction. While more effort has been undertaken for treatment of penile erectile dysfunction, female sexual dysfunction is also an area to which significant research and effort has been devoted.

At present, one commonly used orally administered drug for treatment of sexual dysfunction in the male is Viagra®, a brand of sildenafil, which is a phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor, increasing the persistence of cyclic guanosine monophosphate and thereby enhancing erectile response. There are several other medical treatment alternatives currently available depending on the nature and cause of the impotence problem. Some men have abnormally low levels of the male hormone testosterone, and treatment with testosterone injections or pills may be beneficial. However, comparatively few impotent men have low testosterone levels. For many forms of erectile dysfunction, treatment may be undertaken with drugs injected directly into the penis, including drugs such as papaverin, prostaglandin E1, phenoxybenzamine or phentolamine. These all work primarily by dilating the arterial blood vessels and decreasing the venous drainage. Urethral inserts, such as with suppositories containing prostaglandin, may also be employed. In addition, a variety of mechanical aids are employed, including constriction devices and penile implants.

A variety of treatments have also been explored for female sexual dysfunction, including use of sildenafil, although the Food and Drug Administration has not specifically approved such use. Testosterone propionate has also been employed to increase or augment female libido.

Melanocortin receptor-specific compounds have been explored for use of treatment of sexual dysfunction. In one report, a cyclic α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (“α-MSH”) analog, called Melanotan-II, was evaluated for erectogenic properties for treatment of men with psychogenic erectile dysfunction. Wessells H. et al., J Urology 160:389-393 (1998); see also U.S. Pat. No. 5,576,290, issued Nov. 19, 1996 to M. E. Hadley, entitled Compositions and Methods for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Psychogenic Erectile Dysfunction and U.S. Pat. No. 6,051,555, issued Apr. 18, 2000, also to M. E. Hadley, entitled Stimulating Sexual Response in Females. The peptides used in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,576,290 and 6,051,555 are also described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,674,839, issued Oct. 7, 1997, to V. J. Hruby, M. E. Hadley and F. Al-Obeidi, entitled Cyclic Analogs of AlphaMSH Fragments, and in U.S. Pat. No. 5,714,576, issued Feb. 3, 1998, to V. J. Hruby, M. E. Hadley and F. Al-Obeidi, entitled Linear Analogs of AlphaMSH Fragments. Melanotan-II is a peptide of the following formula:

Figure US06794489-20040921-C00001

Additional related peptides are disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,576,290, 5,674,839, 5,714,576 and 6,051,555. These peptides are described as being useful for both the diagnosis and treatment of psychogenic sexual dysfunction in males and females. These peptides are related to the structure of melanocortins.

In use of Melanotan-II, significant erectile responses were observed, with 8 of 10 treated men developing clinically apparent erections, and with a mean duration of tip rigidity greater than 80% for 38 minutes with Melanotan-II compared to 3.0 minutes with a placebo (p=0.0045). The drug was administered by subcutaneous abdominal wall injection, at doses ranging from 0.025 to 0.157 mg/kg body weight. Transient side effects were observed, including nausea, stretching and yawning, and decreased appetite.

The minimum peptide fragment of native α-MSH needed for erectile response is the central tetrapeptide sequence, His6-Phe7-Arg8-Trp9 (SEQ ID NO:1). In general, all melanocortin peptides share the same active core sequence, His-Phe-Arg-Trp (SEQ ID NO:1), including melanotropin neuropeptides and adrenocorticotropin. Five distinct melanocortin receptor subtypes have been identified, called MC1-R through MC5-R, and of these MC3-R and MC4-R are believed to be expressed in the human brain. MC3-R has the highest expression in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus, while MC4-R is more widely expressed in the thalamus, hypothalamus and hippocampus. A central nervous system mechanism for melanocortins in the induction of penile erection has been suggested by experiments demonstrating penile erection resulting from central intracerebroventricular administration of melanocortins in rats. While the mechanism of His-Phe-Arg-Trp (SEQ ID NO:1) induction of erectile response has not been fully elucidated, it has been hypothesized that it involves the central nervous system, and probably binding to MC3-R and/or MC4-R.

Other peptides and constructs have been proposed which are ligands that alter or regulate the activity of one or more melanocortin receptors. For example, International Patent Application No. PCT/US99/09216, entitled Isoquinoline Compound Melanocortin Receptor Ligands and Methods of Using Same, discloses two compounds that induce penile erections in rats. However, these compounds were administered by injection at doses of 1.8 mg/kg and 3.6 mg/kg, respectively, and at least one compound resulted in observable side effects, including yawning and stretching. Other melanocortin receptor-specific compounds with claimed application for treatment of sexual dysfunction are disclosed in International Patent Application No. PCT/US99/13252, entitled Spiropiperidine Derivatives as Melanocortin Receptor Agonists.

Both cyclic and linear α-MSH peptides have been studied; however, the peptides heretofore evaluated have had an amide or —NH2 group at the carboxyl terminus. See, for example, Wessells H. et al., J Urology, cited above; Haskell-Luevano C. et al., J Med Chem 40:2133-39 (1997); Schiöth H. B. et al., Brit J Pharmacol 124:75-82 (1998); Schiöth H. B. et al., Eur J Pharmacol 349:359-66 (1998); Hadley M. E. et al., Pigment Cell Res 9:213-34 (1996); Bednarek M. A. et al., Peptides20:401-09 (1999); U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,054,556, 6,051,555 and 5,576,290; and, International Patent Applications PCT/US99/04111 and PCT/US98/03298. While significant research has been conducted in an effort to determine the optimal structure of α-MSH peptides, including a variety of structure-function, agonist-antagonist, molecular modeling and pharmacophore studies, such studies have relied upon peptides with an art conventional —NH2 group at the carboxyl terminus. Further, it has long been believed that biologically active neuropeptides, including α-MSH peptides, are amidated, with an —NH2 group at the carboxyl terminus, and that such amidation is required both for biological activity and stability. See, for example, Metabolism of Brain Peptides, Ed. G. O’Cuinn, CRC Press, New York, 1995, pp. 1-9 and 99-101.

EXAMPLE 1

Peptide Synthesis

The peptide Ac-Nle-cyclo(-Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys)-OH was synthesized by standard solid phase peptide synthesis methods, and is a cyclic heptapeptide melanocortin peptide analog with a free acid at the carboxyl terminus and an acetylated amino group at the amino terminus, with the structure:

Figure US06794489-20040921-C00003

The peptide has a net molecular weight of 1025.18, and is supplied in an acetate salt form. The peptide is a white, odorless amorphous hygroscopic powder, soluble in 0.9% saline, composed of C50H68N14O10. For synthesis, an Fmoc-Lys(R3)-p-alkoxybenzyl alcohol resin was transferred to a solid phase peptide synthesizer reactor with a mechanical stirrer. The R3group, such as 1-(1′-adamantyl)-1-methyl-ethoxycarbonyl (Adpoc), allyloxycarbonyl (Aloc) or 4-methyltrityl (Mtt), was removed and the next Fmoc-protected amino acid (Fmoc-Trp(Boc)-OH) was added to the resin through standard coupling procedures. The Fmoc protective group was removed and the remaining amino acids added individually in the correct sequence, by repeating coupling and deprotection procedures until the amino acid sequence was completed. After completion of coupling with the last Fmoc-amino acid derivative, Fmoc-Nle-OH, and cleavage of the Fmoc protective group, the exposed terminal amino group was acetylated with acetic anhydride and pyridine in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The peptide-resin was dried and the Lys and Asp protective groups cleaved. The Lys and Asp deprotected peptide resin was suspended in a suitable solvent, such as DMF, dichloromethane (DCM) or 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), a suitable cyclic coupling reagent, such as 2-(1H-benzotriazol-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium tetrafluoroborate (TBTU), 2-(7-aza-1H-benzotriazol-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium tetrafluoroborate (TATU), 2-(2-oxo-1(2H)-pyridyl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium tetrafluoroborate (TBTU) or N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide/1-hydroxybenzotriazole (DCCl/HOBt) was added, and coupling initiated by use of a suitable base, such as N,N-diispropylethylamine (DIPEA), sym-collidine or N-methylmorpholine (NMM). After cyclization, the peptide-resin was washed and the peptide cleaved from the resin and any remaining protective groups using trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in the presence of water and 1,2-ethanedithiol (EDT). The final product was precipitated by adding cold ether and collected by filtration. Final purification was by reversed phase HPLC using a C18 column. The purified peptide was converted to acetate salt by passage through an ion-exchange column.

REVIEW…….http://www.mdpi.com/2072-6694/6/4/2224/htm

One of the most popular CDK inhibitor in clinical trials in the recent years was dinaciclib (MK-7965, SCH 727965) (Figure 3), the inhibitor of CDK1, CDK2, CDK5, and CDK9. A Phase I trial on the effect of dinaciclib in combination with aprepitant was performed in patients with advanced malignancies [44]. Aprepitant is used for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, is known as an inhibitor and inducer of CYP3A4, which metabolizes dinaciclib.

Coadministration of dinaciclib with aprepitant resulted in no clinically significant effect on the pharmacokinetics and did not alter the safety profile of dinaciclib. The first Phase I clinical trial on dinaciclib as a single agent was performed on patients with advanced malignancies [68]. Forty-eight patients with various solid tumors were treated and 10 of them achieved prolonged stable disease for at least four treatment cycles. Adverse effects were mild, the most common being nausea, anemia, decreased appetite and fatigue.

A phase II multi-center study of dinaciclib for relapsed and/or refractory AML was performed on 20 patients [69]. Temporary decrease in peripheral blood and/or bone marrow blasts was observed in 60% of patients. Four of 13 (31%) patients with circulating blasts had >50% decrease and 6 (46%) >80% decrease in the absolute blast count within 1–8 days of the first dinaciclib dose. Toxicities included diarrhea, fatigue, transaminitis, and manifestations of tumor lysis syndrome, with one patient who deceased of acute renal failure. Another Phase II study was performed of dinaciclib versus erlotinib in patients with non-small cell lung cancer [70].

Unfortunately, it was found that dinaciclib was not successful as monotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer. Most common toxicities included neutropenia, leukopenia, vomiting, and diarrhea. Yet another Phase II study was performed on dinaciclib versus capecitabine in patients with advanced breast cancer [71]. Dinaciclib treatment demonstrated antitumor activity in two of seven patients with ER-positive and ERBB 2-negative metastatic breast cancer, however efficacy was not superior to capecitabine (p = 0.991).

Toxicities included neutropenia, leukopenia, increase in aspartate aminotransferase, and febrile neutropenia. Phase I nonrandomized dose-escalation trial was performed, where patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia were treated with dinaciclib and rituximab [72]. Four out of six patients achieved stable disease, and one patient achieved complete response. Drug-related adverse events were mostly hematological, digestive and metabolic and no dose-limiting toxicities were observed. Dinaciclib was also moved into Phase III development for refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia [73]. Phase I/II clinical trial Dinaciclib in patients with relapsed multiple myeloma showed promise as single agent [74]. The overall confirmed response rate was 3 of 27 (11%). Adverse effects included leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, gastrointestinal symptoms, alopecia, and fatigue. –

Dinaciclib (SCH-727965) is an experimental drug that inhibits cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs.[1] It is being evaluated in clinical trials for various cancer indications.[2]

Mechanisms of action

Anti-tumoral action

  • In melanoma
    • The anti-melanoma activity of dinaciclib is dependent on p53 signaling.[5]
  • In osteosarcoma
    • Dinacliclib induces the apoptosis of osteosarcoma cells.[8]
    • Apoptosis of osteosarcoma cultures can be induced by the combination of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor SCH727965 and a heat shock protein 90 inhibitor.[9]

One example of these inhibitors is the compound of Formula II.

Figure US08076479-20111213-C00006

The synthesis of the compound of Formula II is described in the ‘878 publication according to Scheme II:
Scheme II:

Step 1—Amidization to Form Substituted Pyrazole

Figure US08076479-20111213-C00007

http://www.google.com.tr/patents/US8076479

Step 2—Formation and Dehalogenation of pyrazolo[1,5a]pyrimidine

Figure US08076479-20111213-C00008

Step 3—Amination (Two Separate, Sequential Reactions)

Figure US08076479-20111213-C00009

As described in the ‘878 publication, Synthetic Scheme II leading to the compound of Formula II has several disadvantages from the standpoint of commercial scale synthesis. In step 1, the starting material (compound “C”) used in the formation of compound “D” is a sticky, viscous oil which is difficult to process (weigh, transfer, and blend). Moreover, step 1, as described in the ‘878 publication, requires isolation and chromatographic purification of compounds C and D prior to carrying out each subsequent derivatization reaction. In addition, as described in the ‘878 publication, the reaction of compound C with malonate diester is carried out using the diester as a solvent. After isolation and purification of the resultant malonate adduct, compound D, ring closure to form diketone compound E is carried out in methanol. In accordance with the procedure described in the ‘878 publication, compound E is isolated and dried, then converted to the corresponding dichloride in N,N-dimethyl aniline by treatment with phosphorous oxychloride (POCl3). The dichloride thus formed was isolated and purified by chromatography prior to the sequential amination reactions. Additionally, the compounds of Formula G and of Formula II require chromatography purification and isolations, as described in the ‘878 publication.

As further described in the ‘878 publication, each of the amination reactions were run separately with isolation and chromatographic purification between amination reactions. Accordingly, the ‘878 publication describes the preparation of the compound of Formula II utilizing a scheme consisting of five separate reaction steps with intervening isolation and purification of the products, each sequential step being carried out in a different solvent system. The overall yield of the compound of Formula II reported for this synthesis, based on starting compound C (Scheme II) is about 20%.

Japan-based Kyowa Hakko Kirin (KHK) has signed a license agreement with US-based Syndax Pharmaceuticals for the exclusive rights to develop and commercialise entinostat in Japan and Korea.

TOKYO and WALTHAM, Mass., Jan. 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co., Ltd., (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; president and CEO: Nobuo Hanai, “Kyowa Hakko Kirin”) and Syndax Pharmaceuticals, Inc., (Waltham, Mass.; president and CEO:Arlene M. Morris, “Syndax”) today jointly announced that the companies have entered into a license agreement for the exclusive rights to develop and commercialize entinostat in Japan and Korea. Entinostat is a Class I selective histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor being developed by Syndax in the United States and Europe in combination with hormone therapy for advanced breast cancer and immune therapy combinations in solid tumors.

 

Entinostat.png

Entinostat, also known as SNDX-275 and MS-275, is a benzamide histone deacetylase inhibitor undergoing clinical trials for treatment of various cancers.[1]

Entinostat inhibits class I HDAC1 and HDAC3 with IC50 of 0.51 μM and 1.7 μM, respectively.[2]

Entinostat (formerly known as MS-275) is a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor in phase III clincal trials at Syndax in combination with exemestane for the treatment of advanced HR-positive breast cancer.

Entinostat (MS-275) preferentially inhibits HDAC1 (IC50=300nM) over HDAC3 (IC50=8µM) and has no inhibitory activity towards HDAC8 (IC50>100µM). MS-275 induces cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (p21/CIP1/WAF1), slowing cell growth, differentiation, and tumor development in vivo. Recent studies suggest that MS-275 may be particularly useful as an antineoplastic agent when combined with other drugs, like adriamycin.

In September 2013, Syndax Pharmaceuticals entered into a licensing, development and commercialization agreement with Eddingpharm in China and other asian countries. In 2013, a Breakthrough Therapy Designation was assigned to the compound for the treatment of locally recurrent or metastatic estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer when added to exemestane in postmenopausal women whose disease has progressed following non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor therapy.

Clinical trials

There is an ongoing phase II trial studying the effect of entinostat on Hodgkin’s lymphoma.[3] It is in other phase II trials for advanced breast cancer (in combination with aromatase inhibitors)[4] and for metastatic lung cancer (in combination with erlotinib).[5] As of September 2013, the Food and Drug Administration is working with the industry to design phase III clinical trials. They seek to evaluate the application of Entinostat for the reduction, or prevention of, treatment resistance to aromatase inhibitors in hormone receptor positive breast cancer.[6] Syndax pharmaceuticals currently holds the rights to Entinostat and recently received $26.6 million in funds to advance treatments of resistant cancers using epigenetic tools.[7]

Entinostat, developed by Syndax Pharmaceuticals, is an oral selec
tive histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor primarily targeting class I
HDACs (HDAC1, HDAC2, and HDAC3) [7]. It was later licensed to
Jiangsu Hengrui Medicine Co., Ltd., for development and commercial
ization in China. In 2024, Entinostat has been approved by the NMPA for
use in combination with exemestane to treat advanced breast cancer that
is HR-positive and HER2-negative. This approval is specifically for pa
tients whose disease has progressed following prior endocrine therapy
[8]. Entinostat inhibits HDACs, increasing histone acetylation and
reactivating tumor suppressor genes. This mechanism restores sensi
tivity to endocrine therapy and prevents cancer cell proliferation [9].
The therapeutic agent exerts its effects by modulating the tumor
microenvironment through the suppression of immune regulatory cells,
thereby augmenting the immune response. Its clinical efficacy was
confirmed in the E2112 trial (NCT02115282), a global Phase III study.
When used in combination with exemestane, Entinostat demonstrated
the ability to extend PFS in patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative
breast cancer [10]. The median PFS was significantly extended to 6.32
months, contrasting with the 3.72 months observed in the control
cohort. In terms of safety profile, Entinostat demonstrated favorable
tolerability. The frequently encountered adverse events were primarily
neutropenia, fatigue, and nausea. Severe neutropenia occurred in 43 %
of patients but was manageable with supportive care. Liver function
abnormalities were reported but manageable with dose adjustments
[11].
The synthetic route of Entinostat is shown in Scheme 2 [12].
Enti-001 is first treated with trifluoroacetic anhydride to afford
Enti-002. Reaction of Enti-002 with oxalyl chloride yields the acyl
chloride intermediate, which undergoes condensation with Enti-003 to
form Enti-004. Subsequent alkaline hydrolysis of Enti-004 produces
Enti-005. This compound is activated with CDI followed by reaction
with Enti-006 to generate Enti-007. The synthesis concludes with acidic removal of the Boc protecting group from Enti-007, yielding Entinostat

The IR spectrum shows the following bands: IR(KBr) cm“1: 3295, 1648, 1541 , 1508, 1457, 1309, 1183, 742.

The data indicate the Polymorph A form.

In EP 0 974 576 B1 a method for the production of monoacylated phenylenediamine derivatives is described. The preparation of N-(2- aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl)methoxycarbonylamino-methyl] benzamide is described on pages 12 to 13, Example 6. The final step of the process comprises the purification of the compound via silica gel column chromatography.

Said compound has a melting point (mp) of 159 – 160 0C.

The IR spectrum shows the following bands: IR(KBr) cm‘1: 3295, 1648, 1541 , 1508, 1457, 1309, 1183, 742.

The data indicate the Polymorph A form. In J. Med. Chem. 1999, 42, 3001-3003, the synthesis of new benzamide derivatives and the inhibition of histone deacetylase (HDAC) is described. The process for the production of N-(2-aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl) meth- oxycarbonylaminomethyl] benzamide is described. The final step of the process comprises the purification of the compound via silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate).

Said compound has a melting point (mp) of 159 – 160 0C.

The IR spectrum shows the following bands: IR(KBr) cm‘1: 3295, 1648, 1541 , 1508, 1457, 1309, 1183, 742.

The data indicate the Polymorph A form.

In WO 01/12193 A1 a pharmaceutical formulation comprising N-(2- aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl)methoxycarbonylamino-methyl]benzamide is described.

In WO 01/16106 a formulation comprising N-(2-aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3- yl)methoxycarbonylamino-methyl]benzamide, having an increased solubility and an improved oral absorption for benzamide derivatives, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are described.

In WO 2004/103369 a pharmaceutical composition is described which comprises histone deacetylase inhibitors. That application concerns the combined use of N-(2-aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl)methoxycarbonylamino- methyl]benzamide together with different cancer active compounds. In fact that application is a later application, which is based on the above mentioned matter and thus concerns the Polymorph A form. Finally, JP 2001-131130 (11-317580) describes a process for the purification of monoacylphenylenediamine derivatives. In Reference Example 2, the process for the production of crude N-(2-aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl) meth-oxycarbonylaminomethyl] benzamide is described. Said compound has a melting point (mp) of 159 – 160 0C,

The IR spectrum shows the following bands: IR(KBr) cm“1: 3295, 1648, 1541 , 1508, 1457, 1309, 1183, 742.

The data indicate the Polymorph A form.

Moreover, Working Example 1 describes the purification of crude N-(2- aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl) methoxycarbonylaminomethyl] benzamide in aqueous acid medium together with carbon The final crystallization is done under aqueous conditions at 40-500C.

Following the description to that example it can be seen from the Comparative Examples 1 – 3 that the crude N-(2-aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl) meth- oxycarbonylaminomethyl] benzamide is not purified by dissolution under reflux conditions in either ethanol, methanol or acetonithle followed by a recrystalliza- tion at 2°C. As a result, these recrystallisations do not yield any pure compound.

In addition a “purification” of crude N-(2-aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl) methoxycarbonylaminomethyl] benzamide in ethanol under reflux conditions to- gether with carbon is dechbed. After filtering off the carbon the compound is re- crystallized at 2°C. The purification effect of this method is very limited. 1 ,1 % of an impurity remain in the N-(2-aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl) methoxycarbonylaminomethyl] benzamide. As a result, this procedure does not yield any pure compound.

None of the state of the art documents refer to a polymorph B of N-(2- aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl)methoxycarbonylamino-methyl]benzamide and no physicochemical features of said compound are known. Several biological and clinical studies have been done with N-(2-aminophenyl)- 4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl) meth-oxycarbonylaminomethyl] benzamide. For example, Kummar et al., Clin Cancer Res. 13 (18), 2007, pp 5411-5417 describe a phase I trial of N-(2-aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl) meth-oxycarbonylaminomethyl] benzamide in refractory solid tumors. The compound was applied orally.

The crude N-(2-aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3-yl)methoxycarbonylaminomethyl]- benzamide of step a) can be produced according to the method described in example 6 of EP 0974 576 B1.

IN PHASE 3 FOR MAJOR DEPRESSION

Cariprazine (RGH-188) is an antipsychotic drug under development by Gedeon Richter. It acts as a D2 and D3 receptor partial agonist, with high selectivity towards the D3 receptor.[1] Positive Phase III study results were published for schizophrenia and maniaearly 2012, while Phase II studies in bipolar disorder I, and for bipolar depression are in progress.[2] Action on the dopaminergic systems makes it also potentially useful as an add-on therapy in major depressive disorder [3]

Forest Laboratories obtained a license on development (from the Richter – Hungary) and exclusive commercial rights in the US in 2004.

Medical uses

Cariprazine is currently in clinical trials for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. It has also been investigated as a potential adjunct in treatment-resistant major depressive disorder.[4]

Side effects

The most prevalent side effects for cariprazine include akathisia, insomnia, and weight gain. Cariprazine does not appear to impact metabolic variables or prolactin levles, and unlike many other antipsychotics, does not increase the electrocardiogram (ECG) QT interval. In short term clinical trials extrapyramidal effects, sedation, akathisia, nausea, dizziness, vomiting, anxiety, and constipation were observed. One review characterized the frequency of these events as “not greatly different from that seen in patient treated with placebo”[5] but a second called the incidence of movement-related disorders “rather high”[6][7] .

Pharmacodynamics

Cariprazine acts as an antipsychotic that is effective against the positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia.[8] Unlike many antipsychotics that are D2 and 5-HT2A receptor antagonists, cariprazine is a D2 and D3 partial agonist. It also has a higher affinity for D3 receptors. The D2 and D3 receptors are important targets for the treatment of schizophrenia, because the overstimulation of dopamine receptors has been implicated as a possible cause of schizophrenia.[9] Cariprazine acts to inhibit overstimulated dopamine receptors (acting as an antagonist) and stimulate the same receptors when the endogenous dopamine levels are low. Cariprazine’s high selectivity towards D3 receptors could prove to reduce side effects associated with the other antipsychotic drugs, because D3receptors are mainly located in the ventral striatum and would not incur the same motor side effects (extrapyramidal symptoms) as drugs that act on dorsal striatum dopamine receptors.[8] Cariprazine also acts on 5-HT1A receptors, though the affinity is considerably lower than the affinity to dopamine receptors (seen in monkey and rat brain studies).[8][10] In the same studies, cariprazine has been noted to produce pro-cognitive effects, the mechanisms of which are currently under investigation. An example of pro-cognitive effects occurred in pre-clinical trials with rats: rats with cariprazine performed better in a scopolamine-induced learning impairment paradigm in a water labyrinth test. This may be due to the selective antagonist nature of D3 receptors, though further studies need to be conducted.[8] This result could be very useful for schizophrenia, as one of the symptoms includes cognitive deficits.

Cariprazine has partial agonist as well as antagonist properties depending on the endogenous dopamine levels. When endogenous dopamine levels are high (as is hypothesized in schizophrenic patients), cariprazine acts as an antagonist by blocking dopamine receptors. When endogenous dopamine levels are low, cariprazine acts more as an agonist, increasing dopamine receptor activity.[11] In monkey studies, the administration of increasing does of cariprazine resulted in a dose-dependent and saturable reduction of specific binding. At the highest dose (300 μg/kg), the D2/D3 receptors were 94 % occupied, while at the lowest dose (1 μg/kg), receptors were 5 % occupied.[10]

Pharmacokinetics

Cariprazine has high oral bioavailability and can cross the blood brain barrier easily in humans because it is lipophilic.[2] In rats, the oral bioavailability was 52 % (with a dose of 1 mg/kg).[7]

Compounds of formula (I) act as a dopamine receptor antagonists, particularly D3/D2 receptor antagonists, and are useful in the treatment and prevention of pathological conditions which require modulation of dopamine receptors.

In some cases, an appropriate salt of an active may improve certain properties suitable for pharmaceutical compounds (i.e., stability, handling properties, ease of large scale synthesis, etc.). However, selection of a suitable salt for a particular active agent is not always straightforward, since the properties of salts of different compounds formed with the same salt forming agent may differ greatly. Moreover, formation of particular salts of a compound possessing more than one basic centre may be difficult to achieve in high yield due to formation of multiple products.

Abstract Image

Biased agonism offers an opportunity for the medicinal chemist to discover pathway-selective ligands for GPCRs. A number of studies have suggested that biased agonism at the dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) may be advantageous for the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia. As such, it is of great importance to gain insight into the SAR of biased agonism at this receptor. We have generated SAR based on a novel D2R partial agonist, tert-butyl (trans-4-(2-(3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-2(1H)-yl)ethyl)cyclohexyl)carbamate (4). This ligand shares structural similarity to cariprazine (2), a drug awaiting FDA approval for the treatment of schizophrenia, yet displays a distinct bias toward two different signaling end points. We synthesized a number of derivatives of 4 with subtle structural modifications, including incorporation of cariprazine fragments. By combining pharmacological profiling with analytical methodology to identify and to quantify bias, we have demonstrated that efficacy and biased agonism can be finely tuned by minor structural modifications to the head group containing the tertiary amine, a tail group that extends away from this moiety, and the orientation and length of a spacer region between these two moieties.

Following an adapted literature procedure,(38) 10% Pd/C (881 mg, 828 μmol) was carefully added to an orange suspension of 5 (5.00 g, 27.6 mmol) in H2O (150 mL). The reaction mixture was hydrogenated on a Parr shaker at 60 psi at rt for 3 days until the uptake of hydrogen was complete and no starting materials remained by TLC (CHCl3/CH3OH, 1:1). The mixture was filtered through a Celite pad and washed with water (30 mL), and the filtrate evaporated to dryness in vacuo to reveal a white solid. The material was taken up in absolute EtOH (70 mL) to which concentrated HCl (10 mL) was addedm and the mixture was heated at reflux for 2 h. TLC confirmed ethyl ester formation, and the solvents were concentrated in vacuo. The material was basified with a 1 M NaOH solution to pH 14, and a white precipitate emerged. The product was then extracted from the mixture with EtOAc (3 × 30 mL), and the combined organic extracts were washed with brine and then dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. The product was then converted to the HCl salt by the addition of 1 M HCl in Et2O (27.6 mL, 27.6 mmol), and the solvents were concentrated to half volume in vacuo. The solution was then cooled to 0 °C, resulting in fractional crystallization of the trans stereoisomer as a white solid, which was then collected by filtration and washed with cold CH3CN (1.34 g, 22%). mp: 164–166 °C (lit.(J.

A selective phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitor for treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

CLINICAL   https://clinicaltrials.gov/search/intervention=Cilomilast

Cilomilast (Ariflo, SB-207,499) is a drug which was developed for the treatment of respiratory disorders such as asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). It is orally active and acts as a selective Phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitor.[1]

SB-207499 is a potent second-generation inhibitor of PDE4 (phosphodiesterase-4) with decreased side effects versus those of the well-known first-generation inhibitor, (R)-rolipram. SB-207499 is in clinical development both for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)……..J. Med. Chem. 1998, 41, 821

Cilomilast (Ariflo™, SB 207499) is an orally active, second-generation phosphodiesterase (PDE) 4 inhibitor that is being developed by GlaxoSmithkline for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The results of Phase I and Phase II studies have demonstrated that cilomilast significantly improves lung function and quality of life to a clinically meaningful extent, which has led to a comprehensive Phase III programme of research evaluating efficacy, safety and mechanism of action. However, the results of those Phase III studies are unremarkable and disappointing, raising doubt over the future of cilomilast as a novel therapy for COPD. This review summarizes data obtained from the Phase III clinical development programme, highlights some of the potential concerns both specific to cilomilast and to PDE4 inhibitors in general and assesses the likelihood that cilomilast will reach the market.

Cilomilast is GlaxoSmithKline’s selective phosphodiesterase type 4 (PDE4) inhibitor. The drug candidate had been preregistered in the U.S. for the maintenance of lung function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who are poorly responsive to albuterol. GlaxoSmithKline received an approval letter from the FDA in October 2003, however, in 2007, the company discontinued development of the compound. In 2008, the product was licensed to Alcon by GlaxoSmithKline for the treatment of eye disorders.

Chemical structure for Cilomilast

Phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors, such as theophylline, have been used to treat Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) for centuries; however, the clinical benefits of these agents have never been shown to out-weigh the risks of their numerous adverse effects. Four clinical trials were identified evaluating the efficacy of cilomilast, the usual randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled protocols were used. It showed reasonable efficacy for treating COPD, but side effects were problematic and it is unclear whether cilomalast will be marketed, or merely used in the development of newer drugs.[2][3]

Cilomilast is a second-generation PDE4 inhibitor with antiinflammatory effects that target bronchoconstriction, mucus hypersecretion, and airway remodeling associated with COPD.

PMID 9526558.

The reaction of 3-cyclopentyloxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde (I) with LiBr, trimethylsilyl chloride (TMS-Cl) and 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane in acetonitrile gives the corresponding benzyl bromide (II), which by reaction with NaCN in DMF affords 2-(3-cyclopentyloxy-4-methoxyphenyl)acetonitrile (III).

The condensation of (III) with methyl acrylate (IV) by means of Triton B in refluxing acetonitrile yields the 4-cyanopimelate (V), which is cyclized by means of NaH in refluxing DME, giving the 2-oxocyclohexanecarboxylic ester (VI). The decarboxylation of (VI) by means of NaCl in DMSO/water at 150 C yields the cyclohexanone (VII), which is condensed with 2-(trimethylsilyl)-1,3-dithiane (VIII) by means of BuLi in THF, affording the cyclohexylidene-dithiane (IX).

The methanolysis of (IX) catalyzed by HgCl2 and HClO4 in refluxing methanol gives a mixture of the cis- and trans-4-cyano-4-(3-cyclopentyloxy-4-methoxyphenyl)cyclohexanecarboxylic acid methyl ester which is submitted to flash chromatography to obtain the cis-isomer (XII). Finally, this compound is hydrolyzed with KOH in methanol/THF/water.

To a solution of 3-cyclopentyloxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde (20 g, 90.8 mmol) in acetonitrile (100 mL) was added lithium bromide (15 g, 173 mmol) followed by the dropwise addition of trimethylsilylchloride (17.4 mL, 137 mmol). After 15 min, the reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C, 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane (26.7 mL, 151 mmol) was added dropwise and the resulting mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature. After stirring for 3 h, the mixture was separated into two layers. The lower layer was removed, diluted with methylene chloride and filtered through Celite®. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, dissolved in methylene chloride and refiltered. The solvent was removed in vacuo to provide a light tan oil. To a solution of this crude a- bromo-3-cyclopentyloxy-4-methoxy toluene in dimethylformamide (160 mL) under an argon atmosphere was added sodium cyanide (10.1 g, 206 mmol) and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 h, then poured into cold water (600 mL) and extracted three times with ether. The organic extract was washed three times with water, once with brine and was dried (K2CO3). The solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, 10% ethyl acetate/hexanes) to provide an off-white solid ( m.p. 32-34g C); an additional quantity of slightly impure material also was isolated. Kb Dimethyl 4-cvano-4-(‘3-cvclopentyloxy-4-methoxyphenv pimelate

To a solution of (3-cyclopentyloxy-4-methoxyphenyl)acetonitrile (7 g, 30.3 mmol) in acetonitrile (200 mL) under an argon atmosphere was added a 40% solution of Triton-B in methanol (1.4 mL, 3.03 mmol) and the mixture was heated to reflux. Methyl acrylate (27 mL, 303 mmol) was added carefully, the reaction mixture was maintained at reflux for 5 h and then cooled. The mixture was diluted with ether, was washed once with IN hydrochloric acid and once with brine, was dried (MgSO4) and the solvent was removed in vacuo.

BMS-663068 is an HIV-1 attachment inhibitor in development for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. BMS-663068 is a prodrug for BMS-626529 which binds to the viral envelope glycoprotein gp120 and interferes with attachment of the virus to the cellular CD4 receptor. Administration of BMS-663068 for 8 days with or without ritonavir resulted in substantial declines in plasma HIV-1 RNA levels and was generally well tolerated. Longer-term clinical trials of BMS-663068 as part of combination antiretroviral therapy are warranted.

Fostemsavir (GSK3684934/BMS-663068) is an experimental HIV entry inhibitor and a prodrug of temsavir (BMS-626529). It is under development by [ViiV Healthcare / GlaxoSmithKline]] for use in the treatment of HIV infection. By blocking the gp120 receptor of the virus, it prevents initial viral attachment to the host CD4+ T cell and entry into the host immune cell; its method of action is a first for HIV drugs.[1] Because it targets a different step of the viral lifecycle, it offers promise for individuals with virus that has become highly resistant to other HIV drugs.[2] Since gp120 is a highly conserved area of the virus, the drug is unlikely to promote resistance to itself via generation of CD4-independent virus.[3]

Example 6Preparation of Compound I from Compound D′ (Example 5)

N-Benzoylpiperazine HCl, Compound Db, (11.73 g, 51.74 mmol) was added to a mixture of Compound D′ (14.83 g, 47.03 mmol) (prepared in Example 5) in dry THF (265 mL) and dry DMF (29.5 mL). NaOt-Bu, 30% w/w (52.3 mL, 147 mmol) was added dropwise (30 min.) keeping the temperature at 17-21° C. The resulting yellow slurry was stirred at 17-20° for 1 h more, then cooled to about 5° C. The mixture was slowly poured into cold water (90 mL) and the flask rinsed with additional water (10 mL). The pH of the resulting yellow solution was adjusted to 6-7 with slow addition (˜20 min., 5-12° C.) of 1 N HCl (105 mL). The resulting slurry was warmed and stirred at room temperature for 1.5 h. The slurry was filtered and the cake washed with water (2×60 mL) then dried in vacuo at 65-70° C. for 5 h giving 18.4 g Compound I as a white solid (82.6%), HPLC AP 99.4. 1H NMR (400 MHz, d6-DMSO): δ 2.48 (s, 3H), 3.43 (b, 4H), 3.67 (b, 4H), 3.99 (s, 3H), 7.45 (s, 5H), 7.88 (s, 1H), 8.24 (s, 1H), 9.22 (s, 1H), 12.39 (s, 1H). 13C NMR (100 MHz, d6-DMSO): 13.85, 40.65, 45.22, 56.85, 114.19, 121.02, 122.78, 123.65, 127.06, 128.42, 129.61, 129.70, 135.51, 138.59, 142.18, 149.23, 161.38, 166.25, 169.30, 185.51.

If necessary, the product could be further purified by recrystallization from acetic acid-water-ethanol, ethanol-water, or acetone-water. For example: A mixture of Compound I (25.0 g), glacial acetic acid (260 mL) and DI water (13.8 mL) was heated to 80° C. and held with stirring (overhead) until a solution was obtained (40 min.). The batch was cooled to 70° C. and seeded (0.5 g). With slow agitation (100 rpm), EtOH (300 mL) was added slowly (1 h), keeping the temperature at 70° C. The resulting slurry was kept at 70° C. for 1 h more with very slow stirring. The slurry was cooled to 20° C. over 2 hours and held at 20° C. for over 4 hours. The slurry was filtered, the wet cake washed with EtOH (125 mL), and the solid dried in vacuo at 70° C. (≧16 h), giving 22.6 g Compound I as a white solid (88.4%).

Abstract Image

The development of a short and efficient synthesis of a complex 6-azaindole, BMS-663068, is described. Construction of the 6-azaindole core is quickly accomplished starting from a simple pyrrole, via a regioselective Friedel–Crafts acylation, Pictet–Spengler cyclization, and a radical-mediated aromatization. The synthesis leverages an unusual heterocyclic N-oxide α-bromination to functionalize a critical C–H bond, enabling a highly regioselective copper-mediated Ullmann–Goldberg–Buchwald coupling to install a challenging triazole substituent. This strategy resulted in an efficient 11 step linear synthesis of this complex clinical candidate

Attachment inhibitor BMS-663068 is currently in clinical development for the treatment of HIV infection. Key steps in the synthesis depicted are (1) a radical-mediated redox-aromatization to generate the 6-azaindole (BC) and (2) the regioselective bromination of an N-oxide using PyBroP (DE).

High regioselectivity was observed in the copper(I)-mediated Ullmann–Goldberg–Buchwald coupling (HK) using the diamine ligand J (N1/N2 = 22:1), whereas a thermal SNAr reaction gave N1/N2 = 1:1. Alternative conditions for the bromination of the N-oxide D led mainly to deoxygenation.

Preparation of Compound IVc

Figure US20050209246A1-20050922-C00032

Procedure: To a solution of the acid 6-81 (3.01 g, 10 mmol) and benzoylpiperazine hydrochloride (3.39 g, 15 mmol) in DMF (50 mL) was added triethylamine (10.1 g, 100 mmol, 10 eq.), followed by 1-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC; 5.75 g, 30 mmol) under N2 and the mixture stirred at room temperature for 22 h after sonication and at 40° C. for 2 h. The mixture was concentrated in vacuo to remove DMF and TEA, and to the residual solution was added water (200 mL) under stirring and sonication. The precipitates formed were collected, washed with water and dried in vacuo to obtain 2.8 g (5.9 mmol, Y. 59%) of the title compound IVc as off-white solid. The filtrate was extracted with CH2Cl2 (x2). The CH2Cl2 extracts were dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated to gum which was triturated with Et2O to obtain a solid. This solid was suspended and triturated with MeOH to obtain 400 mg of the title compound IVc as off-white solid. Total yield: 3.2 g (6.8 mmol, Y. 68%): MS m/z 474 (MH); HRMS (ESI) m/z calcd for C24H24N7O4 (M+H) 474.1890, found 474.1884 (Δ-1.2 ppm); 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ ppm 2.50 (3H, s, overlapped with DMSO peaks), 3.43 (4H, br, CH2N), 3.68 (4H, br, CH2N), 3.99 (3H, s, CH3O), 7.46 (5H, br. s, Ar—Hs), 7.88 (1H, s, indole-H-5), 8.25 (1H, s, indole-H-2), 9.25 (1H, s, triazole-H-5), 12.40 (1H, s, NH); 13C-NMR (DMSO-d6) δ ppm 13.78 ,40.58, 45.11, 56.78, 114.11, 120.95, 122.71, 123.60, 126.98, 128.34, 129.6, 135.43, 138.52, 142.10, 149.15, 161.29, 166.17, 169.22, 185.42; UV (MeOH) λ max 233.6 nm (ε 3.43×104), 314.9 nm (ε 1.73×104); Anal: Calc for C24H24N7O4.1/5H2O; C, 60.42; H, 4.94; N, 20.55, Found; C 60.42, H 5.03, N 20.65; KF (H2O) 0.75%.

This reaction can also be performed by use of HATU and DMAP to provide more consistent yield of the title compound: To a suspension of the acid 6-81 (15.6 mmol) and HATU [O-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophos phonate] (8.90 g, 23.4 mmol; 1.5 eq.) in DMF (60 mL) and CH2Cl2 (60 mL) was added a mixture of DMAP (5.72 g, 46.8 mmol, 3 eq.) and benzoylpiperazine hydrochloride (5.30 g, 23.4 mmol; 1.5 eq.) in DMF (60 mL) at room temperature and the mixture was stirred under nitrogen atmosphere for 4 hrs. The mixture was concentrated in vacuo to remove CH2Cl2 and most of DMF, and to the residual solution was added water under stirring and sonication. The precipitates formed were collected, washed with water and dried in vacuo to obtain 5.38 g (11.4 mmol, Y. 72.8%) of the title compound IVc as off-white solid: HPLC >95% (AP, uv at 254 nm)

EXAMPLE 5Preparation of Ica, (Disodium Salt)

Figure US20050209246A1-20050922-C00048

General Procedure: A suspension of IVc (0.24 g, 0.5 mmol) in anhydrous THF (4 mL) under nitrogen atmosphere was treated with sodium hydride (60% oil dispersion, 0.08 g, 2.0 mmol), and stirred until gas evolution ceased (approximately 5 minutes). The reaction mixture was treated with iodine (0.13 g, 0.5 mmol) and stirred for 2-3 minutes followed by addition of di-tert-butyl chloromethyl phosphate (1.6 g, 6.0 mmol, crude). A stream of nitrogen was allowed to pass over the reaction to facilitate the removal of much or all of the THF. The reaction mixture was stirred overnight. HPLC analysis of crude indicated starting IVc (ca. 56%) and desired adduct (ca. 32%).

Several crude reaction mixtures (a total of 6.7 mmol based on starting material IVc) were re-dissolved in dichloromethane, combined, concentrated in vacuo to remove any remaining THF. The residue was suspended in dichloromethane and TFA (1:1, approximately 40 mL total volume). The mixture was stirred for 1.5-2 hours and then solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was suspended in dichloromethane and extracted into water (approximately 60 mL) made weakly basic with solid or aqueous sodium bicarbonate. The aqueous layer was reduced in volume by rotary evaporator if required and the solution was loaded onto a C-18 reverse phase column (approximately 80 g of C-18, YMC ODS-Aq, 50 micron) and eluted with water, followed by water containing 2.5% acetonitrile. Fractions containing pure product were pooled and organic solvent was removed by rotary evaporator. Purified product was recovered after lyophilization to give 1.00 g (1.30 mmol, 19% over 2 steps) of the title compound Ica (disodium salt) as an off-white powder: HPLC purity>99% AP at 254 nm (gradient 0-100% B/A; A 10% CH3CN-90% H2O-0.1% TFA, B 90% CH3CN-10% H2O-0.1 % TFA, gradient time 4 min, column YMC ODS-Aq 4.6×50 mm 3 micron); MS-ESI— m/z 482 (M−H minus 2Na); HRMS (ESI) m/z calcd for C25H27N7O8P (M+H minus 2Na)+584.1659, found 584.1651 (Δ-1.3 ppm); 1H NMR (D2O, 500 MHz) δ ppm 2.53, 2.54 (3H, 2s), 3.56 (2H, s, CH2N), 3.72 (2H, br.s, CH2N), 3.78, 3.83 (2H, 2br.s, CH2N), 3.94, 3.96 (2H, 2br.s, CH2N), 4.14 (3H, s, CH3O), 5.38, 5.40 (2H, 2d, J=11 Hz), 7.45-7.59 (5H, m, Ar—Hs), 8.07, 8.09 (1H, 2s, indole-H-5), 8.64, 8.67 (1H, 2s, indole-H-2), 8.87, 8.89 (1H, 2s, triazole-H-5); 13C NMR (125.7 MHz, D2O) δ ppm 15.43 (N-Me), 44.03, 44.47, 44.66, 45.05, 48.20, 48.82, 49.60, 50.23, 59.78 (OMe), 75.81 (NCH2O), 115.6, 126.0, 127.2, 129.6, 131.0, 131.7, 132.1, 133.5, 136.8, 147.6, 150.1, 154.2, 164.8, 170.4, 175.8, 189.2; UV (H2O) λmax 220 nm (ε 3.91×104), 249 nm (ε 2.00×104), 303 nm (ε 1.60×104); Anal: Calc for C25H24N7O8PNa2. 8H2O. 0.2NaHCO3; C, 38.39; H, 5.14; N, 12.44, P, 3.93, Na, 6.42 Found; C, 38.16; H, 4.81; N, 12.43, P, 3.72, Na, 6.05; KF (H2O) 17.3%.

EXAMPLE 7Preparation of Crystalline Ic (Free Acid Mono-Hydrate)

Figure US20050209246A1-20050922-C00053

To a mixture of IVc (600 mg, 1.27 mmol) in anhydrous THF (10 ml) in an oven-dried round bottle flask under nitrogen at r.t. was added NaH (153 mg, 6.38 mmol, dry powder, 95%), and the white suspension stirred until no gas evolution was observed. The mixture was then added I2 (375 mg, 1.48 mmol), and stirred at r.t. for 3 h. To the reaction mixture was added NaH (153 mg, 6.38 mmol, dry powder, 95%), and the mixture stirred for about 5 to 10 min. The crude chloromethyl di-tert-butylphosphate (2.0 g, about 1.6 ml, 7.79 mmol) was added to the mixture, which was then stirred at r.t. for 15 h. LCMS analysis of the reaction showed a >97% conversion of the starting material. After evaporation of the volatiles, the residue was added CH2Cl2 (10 ml), cooled in an ice-water bath, slowly added TFA (10 ml) and stirred at r.t. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was then evaporated, and the residue partitioned between CH2Cl2 (50 ml) and H2O (50 ml). The CH2Cl2 layer was poured into the reaction flask that contained some undissolved brownish solid, and this mixture was extracted with a dilute aqueous NaHCO3 solution (50 ml). The aqueous mixture was purified by reverse phase preparative HPLC (solvent A: 10% MeOH-90% H2O-0.1% TFA; solvent B: 90% MeOH-10% H2O-0.1% TFA; start % B=0, final % B=100; gradient time=6 min; flow rate=45 ml/min; column: phenomenex-Luna 30×50 mm, S5; fraction collected: 3.65 to 4.05 min). The fractions collected were evaporated to dryness, and the residue dried under high vacuum to obtain the acid Ic as a pale yellow solid (356.6 mg); 1H NMR: (500 MHz, CD3OD) δ 9.05 (s, 1H), 8.46 (s, 1H), 8.04 (s, 1H), 7.47 (b s, 5H), 5.93 (d, J=12, 2H), 4.10 (s, 3H), 4.00-3.40 (b s, 8H), 2.53 (s, 3H); 19F NMR analysis showed that the material contained residual TFA, (the percentage was not quantified); Analytical HPLC method: Start % B=0, Final % B=100, Gradient time=2 min, Flow Rate=5 mL/min, Column: Xterra MS C18 7u 3.0×50 mm, LC/MS: (ES+) m/z (M+H)+=584, HPLC Rt=0.983.

172.2 mg of the purified acid Ic was dissolved in 1 ml of H2O and then about 0.3 ml of absolute EtOH (200 proof) was added. The mixture was left standing in a refrigerator (temperature about 3° C.) overnight, after which time, crystalline material was observed. The mixture was then warmed to ambient temperature, diluted with H2O to a volumn of 3 mL, and then 20 mL of MeCN was added slowly. Following the completion of addition, the mixture was stirred at r.t. for 2 h and then filtered. The solid collected (90 mg) was dried in vacuo, and then under high vacuum. This material was shown by powder x-ray studies to be crystalline; Elemental Analysis calculated for C25H26N7O8P.H2O: C 49.92; H 4.69; N 16.30; observed: C 49.66; H 4.62; N 15.99; mp=205° C. (measured by differential scanning calorimetry). The 1H NMR pattern for crystalline material was compared with that from the purified acid and both were consistent with the structure.

Figure US20050209246A1-20050922-C00066

A mixture of tetrabutylammonium di-tert-butyl phosphate (57 g, 0.126 mol, Digital Specialty Chemicals) and chloroiodomethane (221 g, 1.26 mol) was stirred at room temperature for four hours before the volatiles were removed under vacuum. 500 ml of ethyl ether was added to the residue and insoluble solid was filtered away. Concentration of the filtrate in vacuo and removal of remaining volatiles using a vacuum pump provided di-tert-butyl chloromethyl phosphate as a light brown or yellow oil, which was utilized in the next step without further purification.

Preparation of IIc: (3-(2-(4-benzoylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-oxoacetyl)-4-methoxy-7-(3-methyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-1-yl)methyl di-tert-butyl phosphate

NaH (2.6 g, 10.3 mmol, 95% in oil, Seq.) was added slowly into a suspension of IVc (10.0 g, 21.1 mmol) in dry THF (100 ml) and the mixture was allowed to stir for 0.5 hour at room temperature. A solution of iodine (5.27 g, 20.8 mmol) dissolved in dry THF (10 ml) was added slowly into the stirring solution at a rate which prevented foaming or a violent reaction. The resultant mixture was stirred for an additional 3 hours before a second 2.6 g portion of NaH was introduced. After 15 minutes at ambient temperature di-tert-butyl chloromethyl phosphate, the entire batch of di-tert-butyl chloromethyl phosphate, obtained from step one, was added. After stirring for 16 hours, the reaction mixture was poured into iced NH4OAc (30%) (120 ml), followed by extraction with EtOAc (3×300 ml). The combined organic extracts were washed with water (100 ml) and then brine (100 ml), dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated under vacuum to afford a residue, which was purified by silica gel chromatography (elution with EtOAc/Et3N (50/1) and then EtOAc/MeOH (100/1)) to give 8.0 g (˜75% AP, ˜41% yield) of diester IIc as a light yellow solid.
