Romosozumab (AMG 785) shines in phase II for osteoporosis
Romosozumab (AMG 785) is a humanized monoclonal antibody that targets sclerostin for the treatment of osteoporosis.[1]
Romosozumab was originally discovered by Celltech (now owned by UCB).[2] Celltech entered in a partnership with Amgen in 2002 for the product’s development.[3] As of January 2014, Phase 3 clinical trials are recruiting patients.[4]

Good news for postmenopausal women came from a report given by Michael R. McClung, M.D., at the annual meeting of the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research. McClung and colleagues have found an antibody that targets the Wnt signaling pathway and its osteocyte-regulating molecule sclerostin, which increases bone formation while decreasing bone resorption, according to Nancy Walsh, staff writer for MedPage Today.
Walsh reports that one year of treatment with the antibody romosozumab (formerly AMG 785) led to an 11.3% absolute increase in bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women with low BMD (body mass index). That compared with BMD increases of only 7% with teriparatide (Forteo), 4% with alendronate (Fosamax), and no change with a placebo. “The discovery of sclerostin as an osteocyte-mediated stimulator of osteoblast function and bone formation opened the door for considering the inhibition of this protein and regulator as a target for osteoporosis treatment,” McClung said.
To further explore the therapeutic potential of this antibody, the researchers conducted a Phase II study that enrolled 419 women whose lumbar spine, total hip, or femoral neck T-scores were between −2 and −3.5. The mean age of the participating women was 67. Researchers randomized participants to receive romosozumab in dosages of 70 mg, 140 mg, or 210 mg each month, 140 or 210 mg every three months, or a placebo.
The total hip increase in BMD with romosozumab was 4.1% at 12 months, which was approximately double that seen with alendronate and teriparatide. The researchers also saw changes in biomarkers of bone metabolism, McClung noted. The pattern seen with romosozumab, McClung said, was increases for serum P1NP, favoring bone formation, and decreases in serum CTX, suggesting a slowing of bone resorption after one week of treatment.
Adverse events were similar in the treatment groups. The most common was back or extremity pain. Serious adverse events occurred in 9.8% of the romosozumab groups and in 14% of the placebo group. The only treatment-related adverse events that occurred in the romosozumab groups were injection site reactions, but these were mild and did not lead to a discontinuation of treatment, said McClung.
Amgen/UCB osteoporosis drug shines in Phase II
Amgen and UCB have been boosted by promising mid-stage data for their investigational osteoporosis drug romosozumab.
A Phase II trial, the results from which have been published in the New England Journal of Medicine,showed that romosozumab demonstrated a significant increase in bone mineral density. Specifically, the trial demonstrated that, compared with placebo, treatment for 12 months with the anti-sclerostin biologic significantly increased BMD at the lumbar spine, total hip and femoral neck.
Amgen and UCB noted that significant increases were also observed in the first BMD assessment at three months and moreover, in exploratory analyses, increases observed at the lumbar spine and hip “were significantly greater than those observed with current treatments”, namely Merck & Co’s Fosamax (alendronate) and Eli Lilly’s Forteo (teriparatide).
Iris Loew-Friedrich, chief medical officer at UCB, noted that romosozumab is designed to stimulate bone formation, “which makes it different from most available treatments that reduce bone resorption”. She added that “we are encouraged by the emerging efficacy and safety profile, and look forward to further investigating its potential in the ongoing global Phase III clinical programme”. Final data from the latter, which will enroll up to 10,000 patients, are expected by the end of 2015.
Sean Harper, Amgen R&D chief, noted that broken bones due to osteoporosis are common “yet the seriousness of this health event remains underappreciated, with only two in ten women receiving follow-up testing or treatment after they have broken a bone”. He added that “with its bone-forming ability, romosozumab may result in new treatment strategies”.
If all goes well in Phase III, many observers believe romosozumab could be a blockbuster.

http://www.ama-assn.org/resources/doc/usan/palbociclib.pdf FOR STRUCTURE AND DETAILS
recent studies have identified a number of selective CDK4 inhibitors that, as discussed above, may prove useful in treating cancer—either as anti-cancer agents or as chemoprotective agents—and in treating cardiovascular disorders, such as restenosis and atherosclerosis, diseases caused by infectious agents, and autoimmune disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis. For a disclosure of these selective CDK4 inhibitors, see commonly assigned International Patent Application PCT/IB03/00059, filed Jan. 10, 2003 (the ‘059 application), which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety for all purposes.
The ‘059 application discloses a particularly potent and selective CDK4 inhibitor, 6-acetyl-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one:
In standard enzyme assays the compound of Formula 1 exhibits IC50 concentrations for CDK4 and CDK2 inhibition (at 25° C.) of 0.011 μM and >5 μM, respectively. For a discussion of standard CDK4 and CDK2 assays for IC50 determinations, see D. W. Fry et al., J. Biol. Chem. (2001) 16617-16623.
Though the compound of Formula 1 is a potent and selective CDK4 inhibitor, its use in pharmaceutical products presents challenges. For example, the free base has poor water solubility (9 μg/mL) and exhibits low bioavailability in animal studies. A di-HCl salt of the compound of Formula 1 appears to exhibit adequate water solubility. However, moisture uptake studies reveal that, even at low relative humidity (10% RH), the di-HCl salt absorbs water in an amount greater than about 2% of its mass, making it unsuitable for use in a solid drug product. A mono-HCl salt of the compound of Formula 1 is marginally hygroscopic, absorbing more than 2% of its mass at a relative humidity above 80%. However, the process for preparing the mono-HCl salt yields partially crystalline drug substance, indicating potential problems with process scale-up. Other salt forms of the compound of Formula 1 are thus needed.
Pfizer’s breast cancer drug Palbociclib (PD-0332991), a first in the class oral inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) 4 and 6, is widely seen by investors as Pfizer’s most valuable compound in late-stage development. The FDA awarded Palbociclib “breakthrough therapy designation” in April 2013 based on the preliminary phase 2 data showing palbociclib, combined with Novartis’ drug,Femara (Letrozole), stopped breast tumors progression for more than two years as compared with 7.5 months with letrozole alone. The phase 3 trial started in February 2013 and estimated final completion date is March 2016. Leerink Swann analyst Seamus Fernandez forecasts palbociclib could become a $5 billion drug, with potential for $3 billion in first-line metastatic breast cancer alone.
Palbociclib, also known as PD0332991, is an orally available pyridopyrimidine-derived cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor with potential antineoplastic activity. PD-0332991 selectively inhibits cyclin-dependent kinases (particularly Cdk4/cyclin D1 kinase), which may inhibit retinoblastoma (Rb) protein phosphorylation; inhibition of Rb phosphorylation prevents Rb-positive tumor cells from entering the S phase of the cell cycle (arrest in the G1 phase), resulting in suppression of DNA replication and decreased tumor cell proliferation. PD 0332991 is a highly specific inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (Cdk4) (IC50 = 0.011 μmol/L) and Cdk6 (IC50 = 0.016 μmol/L), having no activity against a panel of 36 additional protein kinases.
6-Acetyl-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one hydrochloride (also referred to as “Compound 1”),
as well as its intermediates. Compound 1 is described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,936,612, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated in its entirety. This compound is a protein kinase inhibitor and represents a synthetic, small molecule inhibitor capable of modulating cell cycle control.
A method of preparing Compound 1 is disclosed as Example 36 of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 6,936,612. Methods of preparing the isethionate salt forms of Compound 1 are disclosed in Examples 1-13 of WO 2005/005426. These methods are for synthesis of small quantities of the salt forms of Compound 1 and are not designed for commercial scale-up. Therefore, a preparation of the salt forms for CDK inhibitor 6-Acetyl-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one hydrochloride which is cost-efficient, scaleable and productive is highly desirable.

Example 4 Preparation of a mono-isethionate salt of 6-acetyl-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-8H-pyrido[2.3-d]pyrimidin-7-one (Form B)
To a slurry of 6-acetyl-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one (7.0 g, 15.64 mmol, prepared as in Example 3 following contact with NaOH) dispersed in 250 mL of water was added drop-wise 30 mL of a 0.52 M solution of isethionic acid in MeOH (15.64 mmol) to a pH of 5.2. The solution was filtered through a glass filter (fine) and the clear solution was freeze-dried to give 9.4 g of the amorphous salt. The amorphous salt (3.16 g) was mixed with 25 mL of MeOH and after almost complete dissolution a new precipitate formed. Another 25 mL of MeOH was added and the mixture was stirred at 46° C. to 49° C. for four hours. The mixture was slowly cooled to 32° C. and put in a cold room (+4° C.) overnight. A sample was taken for PXRD, which indicated formation of Form B. The mixture was filtered and the precipitate was dried overnight at 50° C. in a vacuum oven. This furnished 2.92 g of the mono-isethionate salt of the compound of Formula 1 in 92% yield. HPLC-99.25%, PXRD-Form B, CHNS, H-NMR were consistent with the structure.
Example 5 Preparation of a mono-isethionate salt of 6-acetyl-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-8H-pyrido[2.3-d]pyrimidin-7-one (Form B)
MeOH (100 mL) was placed in a 250 mL flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, thermocouple/controller, condenser, and heating mantle and preheated to 35° C. An amorphous isethionate salt (2 g, prepared as in Example 4) was slowly added in three even portions with a 25 min to 30 min interval between the additions. The reaction mixture was stirred overnight at 35° C. and subsequently cooled. A sample was filtered and examined by PXRD. It was pure Form B. The whole reaction mixture was then used as Form B seeds in a larger scale experiment.
Example 6 Preparation of a mono-isethionate salt of 6-acetyl-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one (Form B)
MeOH (50 mL) was placed in a 250 mL flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer, condenser, thermocouple/controller, and heating mantle, and preheated to 40° C. An amorphous isethionate salt (1 g, prepared as in Example 4) was slowly added in three even portions with 30 min interval between the portions and then stirred overnight at 40° C. The reaction was monitored by in-situ Raman spectroscopy. The sample was taken, filtered and analyzed by PXRD. It was pure Form B by PXRD and Raman spectroscopy. The mixture was cooled to 25° C. at a rate of 3° C./h, cooled to −10° C., filtered, and vacuum dried to furnish 0.85 g of the Form B crystalline product.
Example 7 Preparation of a mono-isethionate salt of 6-acetyl-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one (Form B)
The free base (Formula 1, 0.895 mg, 2 mmol) was mixed with 10 mL of MeOH and seeded with 33 mg of a mono-isethionate salt of the compound of Formula 1 (Form B). Then 5.6 mL of a 0.375 M solution of isethionic acid in MeOH (2.1 mmol) was added in 10 even portions over 75 min time period. The mixture was stirred for an additional hour and a sample was taken for PXRD analysis. It confirmed formation of crystalline Form B. The mixture was stirred at RT overnight and another PXRD was taken. There was no change in the crystal form. The mixture was cooled in a refrigerator at −8° C. overnight, filtered, and dried at 50° C. in a vacuum oven to give 1.053 g (91.8% of theory) of the above-named compound (Form B). HPLC—99.8%, CHNS, H-NMR, IR are consistent with the structure, PXRD-Form B.
Example 8 Preparation of a mono-isethionate salt of 6-acetyl-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-8H-pyrido[2.3-d]pyrimidin-7-one (Form A)
An amorphous isethionate salt (47 mg, prepared as in Example 4) was mixed with 4 mL of EtOH in a 15 mL flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer, thermocouple and condenser. The mixture was heated to reflux, which resulted in the formation of a nearly clear solution. After refluxing for 10-15 min, the mixture became cloudy. It was slowly cooled to 50° C. and was seeded at 69° C. with Form A. The mixture was held at 50° C. for 5 h and was allowed to cool to RT overnight. The mixture was subsequently cooled to 1° C. with an ice bath, held for 1.5 h, filtered, washed with 0.5 mL of cold EtOH, air-dried, and then dried in a vacuum oven at 70° C. overnight to furnished 38.2 mg of a fine crystalline material. The crystalline material was found to be mono-isethionate salt Form A by PXRD. H-NMR was consistent for the mono-isethionate salt and indicated the presence of residual EtOH ca. 5.9 mol % or 0.6 wt %.
Example 9 Preparation of a mono-isethionate salt of 6-acetyl-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one (Form D)
An amorphous isethionate salt (9.0 g, prepared as in Example 4) was mixed with 300 mL of MeOH, stirred and heated to 63.8° C. (at reflux). To the slightly cloudy mixture was added two 50-mL portions of MeOH. The hot mixture was filtered into a 2-L flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer. The mixture was briefly heated to reflux and then cooled to 60° C. IPA (100 mL) was added to the mixture. The mixture was again heated to 60° C. and an additional 110 mL of IPA was added. A precipitate started to form at 59.7° C. The mixture was reheated to 67.5° C., cooled to 50° C., and held overnight. A sample was taken the next morning for PXRD analysis. The mixture was cooled to 25° C. at a rate of 3° C./h and another PXRD sample was taken when the mixture reached 28° C. The mixture was allowed to cool to RT overnight. A precipitate was collected and dried in a vacuum oven at 65° C. and 30 Torr. The procedure produced 7.45 g (82.8% yield) of the crystalline compound (Form D by PXRD analysis). Previously analyzed samples were also Form D. HPLC showed 98.82% purity and CHNS microanalysis was within +/−0.4%. A slurry of isethionate salt Form A, B, and D in MeOH yielded substantially pure Form B in less than three days.
Example 10 Preparation of isethionic acid (2-hydroxy-ethanesulfonic acid)
A 5-L, four-necked, round-bottomed flask, equipped with mechanical stirrer, thermocouple, gas sparger, and an atmosphere vent through a water trap was charged with 748 g (5.05 mol) of sodium isethionate (ALDRICH), and 4 L of IPA. The slurry was stirred at RT. An ice bath was used to keep the internal temperature below 50° C. as 925 g (25.4 mol) of hydrogen chloride gas (ALDRICH) was sparged into the system at a rate such that it dissolved as fast as it was added (as noted by lack of bubbling through the water trap). Sufficient HCl gas was added until the system was saturated (as noted by the start of bubbling through the water trap). During the addition of HCl, the temperature rose to 45° C. The slurry was cooled to RT and filtered over a coarse-fritted filter. The cake was washed with 100 mL of IPA and the cloudy filtrate was filtered through a 10-20μ filter. The resulting clear, colorless filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator, while keeping the bath temperature below 50° C. The resulting 1.07 kg of clear, light yellow oil was diluted with 50 mL of tap water and 400 mL of toluene and concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator for three days, while keeping the bath temperature below 50° C. The resulting 800 g of clear, light yellow oil was diluted with 500 mL of toluene and 250 mL of IPA and concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator for 11 days, keeping the bath temperature below 50° C. The resulting 713 g of clear, light yellow oil was titrated at 81 wt % (580 g, 91.1% yield) containing 7.9 wt % water and 7.5 wt % IPA.
Example 11 Preparation of 4-{6-[6-(1-butoxy-vinyl)-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-7-oxo-7,8-dihydro-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-ylamino]-pyridin-3-yl}-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester
A 5-L, three-necked, round-bottomed flask, equipped with a mechanical stirrer, a thermocouple, and a nitrogen inlet/outlet vented through a silicone oil bubbler was placed under a nitrogen atmosphere and charged with 4-[6-(6-bromo-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-7-oxo-7,8-dihydro-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-ylamino)-pyridin-3-yl]-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (300 g, 0.51 mol, prepared as in Example 2), butyl vinyl ether (154 g, 1.54 mol, ALDRICH), n-butanol (1.5 L, ALDRICH), and diisopropyl ethylamine (107 mL, 0.62 mol, ALDRICH). The slurry was placed under approximately 50 Torr vacuum and then refilled with nitrogen 3 times. To this was added 8.3 g (0.01 mol) bis-(diphenylphosphinoferrocene) palladium dichloride dichloromethane (JOHNSON MATTHEY, Lot 077598001) and the resulting slurry was purged an additional three times as described above. The mixture was then heated to 95° C. and stirred for 20 h. The resulting thin red slurry was diluted with 2 L of heptane and cooled to approximately 5° C. At this temperature, 400 mL saturated aqueous potassium carbonate was added and the mixture was filtered and rinsed with 250 mL of heptane. After drying in an oven for 16 h at 45° C., 231.7 g (75% yield) of the title compound was obtained as a yellow solid.
Example 12 Preparation of a mono-isethionate salt of 6-acetyl-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-8H-Pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one (Form B)
A 22-L, three-necked, round-bottomed flask, equipped with a mechanical stirrer, a thermocouple, and a nitrogen inlet/outlet vented through a silicone oil bubbler was placed under a nitrogen atmosphere and charged with 4-{6-[6-(1-butoxy-vinyl)-8-cyclopentyl-5-methyl-7-oxo-7,8-dihydro-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-ylamino]-pyridin-3-yl}-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (725 g, 1.20 mol, prepared as in Example 11) and MeOH (14 L). The slurry was stirred at RT as it was charged with a solution of isethionic acid (530 g, 4.20 mol, prepared as in Example 10), MeOH (1.5 L), and water (70 mL, 3.89 mol). The resulting slurry was heated to 55° C. over 30 minutes and then stirred at 55° C. for 30 minutes. A solution of 175 g (1.73 mol) of Et3N (ALDRICH) in 200 mL of MeOH was charged to the slurry as it was cooled to 30° C. The slurry was held at 30° C. as a solution of 128 g (1.26 mol) of Et3N in 2 L of MeOH was added dropwise over 6 hours. The resulting slurry was sampled to determine crystal form (Form B). The slurry was cooled and held at 5° C. for 15 minutes and was subsequently filtered through a coarse-fritted filter. The resulting filter cake was washed with multiple washes of 200 mL of cold MeOH. The solid product was dried at 55° C. under vacuum to yield 710 g (91% yield) of the title compound as yellow crystals.

old info
Date: April 10, 2013
Pfizer Inc. said that its experimental pill for advanced, often deadly breast cancer has been designated as a breakthrough therapy by the Food and Drug Administration.
The breakthrough designation, created under legislation enacted last summer to fund and improve operations of the FDA, is meant to speed up development and review of experimental treatments that are seen as big advances over existing therapies for serious diseases. Pfizer is working with the agency to determine exactly what research results it will need to apply for approval of the drug.
Palbociclib is being evaluated as an initial treatment for the biggest subgroup of postmenopausal women whose breast cancer is locally advanced or has spread elsewhere in the body. About 60% of women with such advanced breast cancer have tumors classified as ER+, or estrogen-receptor positive, but HER2-, or lacking an excess of the growth-promoting protein HER2.
Estrogen-receptor positive tumors have proteins inside and on the surface of their cells to which the estrogen hormone can attach and then fuel growth of cells. These tumors tend to grow slowly and can be fought with drugs that block estrogen’s effects.
Meanwhile, about 80% of breast cancer tumor cells are HER2 negative. That means that unlike HER2 positive tumors, they don’t produce too much of the HER2 protein, which makes tumors grow and spread more aggressively than in other breast cancer types.
New York-based Pfizer is currently running a late-stage study of palbociclib at multiple centers, comparing its effects when used in combination with letrozole with the effects of letrozole alone.
Letrozole, sold under the brand name Femara for about the past 15 years, is a pill that works by inhibiting aromatase. That’s an enzyme in the adrenal glands that makes estrogen.
According to Pfizer, palbociclib targets enzymes called cyclin dependent kinases 4 and 6. By inhibiting those enzymes, the drug has been shown in laboratory studies to block cell growth and suppress copying of the DNA of the cancer cells.
Pfizer, which has made research on cancer medicines a priority in recent years, also is testing palbociclib as a treatment for other cancers.
| Highlight of recent study using PD-0332991 |
Phase I study of PD-0332991: Forty-one patients were enrolled. DLTs were observed in five patients (12%) overall; at the 75, 125, and 150 mg once daily dose levels. The MTD and recommended phase II dose of PD 0332991 was 125 mg once daily. Neutropenia was the only dose-limiting effect. After cycle 1, grade 3 neutropenia, anemia, and leukopenia occurred in five (12%), three (7%), and one (2%) patient(s), respectively. The most common non-hematologic adverse events included fatigue, nausea, and diarrhea. Thirty-seven patients were evaluable for tumor response; 10 (27%) had stable disease for ≥4 cycles of whom six derived prolonged benefit (≥10 cycles). PD 0332991 was slowly absorbed (median T(max), 5.5 hours), and slowly eliminated (mean half-life was 25.9 hours) with a large volume of distribution (mean, 2,793 L). The area under the concentration-time curve increased linearly with dose. Using an E(max) model, neutropenia was shown to be proportional to exposure. CONCLUSIONS:
PD 0332991 warrants phase II testing at 125 mg once daily, at which dose neutropenia was the sole significant toxicity. (Source: Clin Cancer Res; 18(2); 568-76.)
Phase I study of PD-0332991 in 3-week cycles (Schedule 2/1): Six patients had DLTs (18%; four receiving 200 mg QD; two receiving 225 mg QD); the MTD was 200 mg QD. Treatment-related, non-haematological adverse events occurred in 29 patients (88%) during cycle 1 and 27 patients (82%) thereafter. Adverse events were generally mild-moderate. Of 31 evaluable patients, one with testicular cancer achieved a partial response; nine had stable disease (≥10 cycles in three cases). PD 0332991 was slowly absorbed (mean T(max) 4.2 h) and eliminated (mean half-life 26.7 h). Volume of distribution was large (mean 3241 l) with dose-proportional exposure. Using a maximum effective concentration model, neutropenia was proportional to exposure. CONCLUSION: PD 0332991 was generally well tolerated, with DLTs related mainly to myelosuppression. The MTD, 200 mg QD, is recommended for phase II study. (source: Br J Cancer. 2011 Jun 7;104(12):1862-8)

…………………………………………………….
Emergence of bacterial resistance to known antibacterial agents is becoming a major challenge in treating bacterial infections. One way forward to treat bacterial infections, and especially those caused by resistant bacteria, is to develop newer antibacterial agents that can overcome the bacterial resistance. Coates et al. (Br. J. Pharmacol. 2007; 152(8), 1147-1154.) have reviewed novel approaches to developing new antibiotics. However, the development of new antibacterial agents is a challenging task. For example, Gwynn et al. (Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2010, 1213: 5-19) have reviewed the challenges in the discovery of antibacterial agents.
Several antibacterial agents have been described in the prior art (for example, see PCT International Application Nos. PCT/US2010/060923, PCT/EP2010/067647, PCT/US2010/052109, PCT/US2010/048109, PCT/GB2009/050609, PCT/EP2009/056178 and PCT/US2009/041200). However, there remains a need for potent antibacterial agents for preventing and/or treating bacterial infections, including those caused by bacteria that are resistant to known antibacterial agents.
Various oxazolidinone-containing compounds have been disclosed for use asantibiotics. For example, oxazolidinone-containing compounds have been described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/596,412 (filed Dec. 17, 2004), and WO 04/048350, WO 03/022824 and WO 01/94342, which are incorporated herein by reference.

No. 12/699,864 (filed Feb. 3, 2010), which are assigned to the same assignee as in the present application, disclose phosphate dimer impurities made during the process of making of the compounds disclosed therein. Surprisingly, it has been found that compounds containing at least two phosphates binding two oxazolidinone-containing moieties, such as dimers of oxazolidinone-containing compounds have antibacterial activity similar to their dihydrogen monophosphate analog

and M=OH.
A 1-L, three-neck round-bottom flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer, nitrogen inlet/outlet and thermocouple was charged with the compound of Formula Ia below (16.0 g, 0.0499 mol], THF (320 mL, 20 vol) and Et3N (21.9 g, 0.216 mol, 5.0 equiv.).
Figure US20100305069A1-20101202-C00025
POCl3 (3.31 g, 0.0216 mol, 0.5 equiv.) was added dropwise via syringe over 5 minutes. The reaction temperature was maintained below 25° C. The batch was aged for 16 hours at room temperature at which point HPLC analysis (XBridge, C18) indicated that the reaction was complete. The reaction vessel was then immersed in an ice-water bath and a 500-mL addition funnel charged with 320 mL of H2O was attached to the reaction vessel. When the temperature of the reaction reached 2.7° C., H2O was added drop wise over 30 minutes. The temperature of the reaction was maintained below 10° C. Upon completion of the H2O addition, the ice-water bath was removed and the batch was aged for 3 hours. The solution was transferred to a 2-L round-bottom flask and concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator. After removal of most of the THF from the solution, the aqueous mixture was extracted with 5 1-L portions of CH2Cl2:MeOH (9:1). The CH2Cl2 layers were combined and concentrated to a dark oil. This crude material was purified on 200 g of silica gel, eluting with 10% MeOH/CH2Cl2 to 20% 2 N NH3 in MeOH/CH2Cl2. Fractions containing mostly the bis-ester (as judged by TLC Rf=0.3 eluting with 20% 2 N NH3 in MeOH/CH2Cl2) were combined and concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator, during which time a white precipitate was observed. The flask containing the slurry was removed from the rotary evaporator and equipped with a magnetic stir bar and allowed to stir while cooling to room temperature over 3 hours, during which time the slurry thickened. The solid was filtered and dried in a vacuum oven at 45° C. for 16 hours to give 3.55 g of bis-ester as an off-white solid (20% yield). HPLC analysis (Method A): 99.0% (AUC), tR=16.3 min. This reaction was repeated and the combined lots of the compound of Formula III (6.7 g) were slurried in 100 mL of MeOH (15 vol). The slurry was heated to 40° C. for 30 minutes and then allowed to cool to room temperature over 1 hour. The off-white solid was filtered and dried in a vacuum oven at 40° C. for 16 hours to give 6.15 g of the compound of Formula III (92% yield). The 1H NMR analysis of the product was consistent with the assigned structure. HPLC analysis (Method A): 99.0% (AUC), tR=16.3 min.
Example 2 Preparation of the Diphosphate Dihydrogen Diester, Formula IV
In Examples 2-5, “Formula IV” refers to a compound wherein Z is

Figure US20100305069A1-20101202-C00027
The suspension was heated to 50° C. and held at that temperature for 4 hours at which point HPLC analysis (XBridge, C18) indicated that the reaction was complete. The reaction was filtered at 50° C. and dried in a vacuum oven at 50° C. for 24 hours to give 5.15 g of the imidazolium salt (i.e., the compound of Formula IV) as an off-white solid (98% yield). The 1H NMR analysis of the product was consistent with the assigned structure. HPLC analysis (Method A): 94.5% (AUC), tR=14.6 min.

Orphan Drugs: NPS Pharmaceuticals’ Natpara Receives EC Designation
NPS Pharmaceuticals, a New Jersey-based biopharmaceutical company developing treatments for rare diseases, announces January 3, 2014, that the European Commission (EC) grants Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) to Natpara (Recombinant Human Parathyroid Hormone (rhPTH[1-84]), for the treatment of Hypoparathyroidism. Natpara is a bioengineered replacement for endogenous Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) – “a hormone replacement therapy for the underlying cause of Hypoparathyroidism”.
Hypoparathyroidism is the decreased function of the parathyroid glands resulting in the under production of PTH. PTH’s functions are :
• Modulation of serum calcium and phosphate
• Regulation of renal excretion of phosphate and calcium
• Activation of Vitamin D
• Maintenance of normal bone turnover.
Natpara Regulatory Activities
• In 2007, receives FDA ODD Designation
• In October 2013, submission of US Biologic License Application (BLA) to FDA
• In January 2014, receives EC ODD.

CHR-2797 is an oral, once-daily experimental cancer therapy in phase II clinical development at Chroma Therapeutics for the oral treatment of refractory acute myeloid leukemia in elderly patients. It is also in early clinical development for the treatment of refractory solid tumors alone or in combination with chemotherapy.
No recent development has been reported for phase I/II studies evaluating CHR-2797 as monotherapy in hematologic/blood cancer. A phase I/II clinical trial of the compound in combination with erlotinib for non-small cell lung cancer was terminated in 2010 due to very poor recruitment of patients to the study.
Cell Therapeutics is also conducting phase II clinical trials of the compound for the treatment of myelodysplasia and acute myeloid leukemia.
CHR- 2797 is an inhibitor of aminopeptidases and has demonstrated strong preclinical efficacy as monotherapy in addition to demonstrating strong synergy with a number of leading cancer therapies in a range of cancer cells. It was originally licensed from Vernalis, where it was being evaluated for its potential in treating multiple sclerosis; however development in this indication has been discontinued.
In 2008, orphan drug designation was assigned to CHR-2797 in the U.S. for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. In 2011, the compound was licensed to Cell Therapeutics by Chroma Therapeutics in Central America, North America and South America for exclusive marketing and codevelopment for the oral treatment of blood-related cancers and other cancers.
In corporate news, biopharmaceutical company Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (CTIC) was up more than 6% and near 52 week highs after saying Thursday that the U.S. FDA has removed the partial clinical hold on tosedostat and all studies underway have been allowed to continue. Tosedostat is under development for the treatment of blood-related cancers. It is currently being studied in Phase 2 trials in elderly patients with newly diagnosed and relapsed acute myeloid leukemia and high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes.

Tosedostat is a proprietary orally bioavailable inhibitor of the M1 family of aminopeptidases with potential antineoplastic activity.
Tosedostat is converted intracellularly into a poorly membrane-permeable active metabolite (CHR-79888) which inhibits the M1 family of aminopeptidases, particularly puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase (PuSA), and leukotriene A4 (LTA4) hydrolase; inhibition of these aminopeptidases in tumor cells may result in amino acid deprivation, inhibition of protein synthesis due to a decrease in the intracellular free amino acid pool, an increase in the level of the proapoptotic protein Noxa, and cell death.
Noxa is a member of the BH3 (Bcl-2 homology 3)-only subgroup of the proapoptotic Bcl-2 (B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2) protein family
Cell Therapeutics announced that it has received notification from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that the partial clinical hold on tosedostat (IND 075503) has been removed and all studies underway may continue. Tosedostat is a first-in-class selective inhibitor of aminopeptidases, which are required by tumor cells to provide amino acids necessary for growth and tumor cell survival, and is under development for the treatment of blood-related cancers.
Tosedostat is currently being studied in the United States and European Union in investigator-sponsored and cooperative group-sponsored Phase 2 trials in elderly patients with newly diagnosed and relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).
“We are pleased that the FDA has responded favorably to the tosedostat clinical trial data provided and removed the partial clinical hold to allow further development of tosedostat in ongoing and future studies,” said John Pagel, MD, PhD, Associate Member, Clinical Research Division, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center; Associate Professor, Medical Oncology Division, University of Washington School of Medicine; and Principal Investigator in the tosedostat first-line AML/MDS trial.

Anti-Metastatic and Anti-Invasive Agents Compounds which have the property of inhibiting the action of the metalioproteinase enzymes involved in connective tissue breakdown and remodelling, such as fibroblast collagenase (Type 1 ), PMN-collagenase, 72 kDa-gelatinase, 92 kDa- gelatinase, stromelysin, stromelysin-2 and PUMP-1 (known as “matrix metalloproteinases”, and herein referred to as MMPs) have been proposed and are being tested in the clinic for the treatment of solid tumours. Cancer cells are particularly adept at utilising the MMPs to achieve rapid remodelling of the extracellular matrix, thereby providing space for tumour expansion and permitting metastasis. MMP inhibitors should minimise these processes and thus slow or prevent cancer progression.
In view of the rapid emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria, the development of antibacterial agents with novel modes of action that are effective against the growing number of resistant bacteria, particularly the vancomycin resistant enterococci and β-lactam antibiotic-resistant bacteria, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylocccus aureus, is of utmost importance.
The natural antibiotic actinonin (see for example J. C. S Perkin I, 1975, 819) is a hydroxamic acid derivative of Structure (A):
In ddition to actinonin, various structural analogues of actinonin have also been shown to have antibacterial activity (see for example Broughton et al. (Devlin et al. Journal of the Chemical Society. Perkin Transactions 1 (9):830-841, 1975; Broughton et al. Journal of the Chemical Society. Perkin Transactions 1 (9):857-860, 1975).
The matlystatin group of compounds, share a number of structural similarities with actinonin. Both are peptidic molecules with functional hydroxamic acid metal binding groups (Ogita et al., J. Antibiotics. 45(11):1723-1732; Tanzawa et al., J. Antibiotics. 45(11):1733-1737; Haruyama et al., J. Antibiotics. 47(12):1473-1480; Tamaki et al., J. Antibiotics. 47(12):1481-1492).
