Description
RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] The present application is a divisional of U.S. application
Ser. No. 11/418,342, filed May 3, 2006, which is a continuation of
U.S. application Ser. No. 10/262,517, filed Sep. 30, 2002, now U.S.
Pat. No. 7,087,593, which claims priority to U.S. Provisional
Patent Application Ser. No. 60/326,754, filed Oct. 2, 2001, all of
which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Novel benzimidazolidinone derivatives have been prepared and
identified as having high affinity for muscarinic M.sub.1 and
M.sub.4 receptors. The treatment of mental disorders associated
with increasing the activity of a cholinergic receptor using these
novel compounds is anticipated. Moreover, these compounds also have
dopamine D.sub.2 antagonist activity, rendering them particularly
interesting as anti-psychotic agents.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0003] Muscarinic cholinergic receptors mediate the actions of the
neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the central and peripheral
nervous systems. Muscarinic receptors play a critical role in the
central nervous system mediating higher cognitive functions, as
well as in the peripheral parasympathetic nervous system where they
mediate cardiac, respiratory, digestive, and endocrine and exocrine
responses. Five distinct muscarinic receptor subtypes have been
identified, M.sub.1-M.sub.5. The muscarinic M.sub.1 receptor
subtype is predominantly expressed in the cerebral cortex and is
believed to be involved in the control of higher cognitive
functions; the M.sub.2 receptor is the predominant subtype found in
heart and is involved in the control of heart rate; the M.sub.3
receptor is widely expressed in many peripheral tissues and is
believed to be involved in gastrointestinal and urinary tract
stimulation as well as sweating and salivation; the M.sub.4
receptor is present in brain and may be involved in locomotion; the
M.sub.5, receptor is present in the brain where its role is at
present poorly defined. M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 have been particularly
associated with the dopaminergic system.
[0004] Conditions associated with cognitive impairment, such as
Alzheimer's disease, are accompanied by a reduction of
acetylcholine content in the brain. This is believed to be the
result of degeneration of cholinergic neurons of the basal
forebrain, which widely innervate multiple areas of the brain,
including the association cortices and hippocampus, that are
critically involved in higher processes.
[0005] Efforts to increase acetylcholine levels have focused on
increasing levels of choline, the precursor for acetylcholine
synthesis, and on blocking acetylcholineesterase (AChE), the enzyme
that metabolizes acetylcholine. Attempts to augment central
cholinergic function through the administration of choline or
phosphatidylcholine have not been successful. ACHE inhibitors have
shown therapeutic efficacy, but have been found to have frequent
cholinergic side effects due to peripheral acetylcholine
stimulation, including abdominal cramps, nausea, vomiting, and
diarrhea. These gastrointestinal side effects have been observed in
about a third of the patients treated. In addition, some ACHE
inhibitors, such as tacrine, have also been found to cause
significant hepatotoxicity with elevated liver transaminases
observed in about 30% of patients. The adverse effects of ACHE
inhibitors have severely limited their clinical utility.
[0006] The dopamine hypothesis of schizophrenia suggests that
increased dopamine neurotransmission underlies the positive
symptoms of the disease and is supported by the evidence that
dopamine receptor blockade is effective in ameliorating such
psychotic symptoms. Further, drugs that enhance dopamine
neurotransmission in the brain cause psychotic-like episodes in man
and exacerbate psychotic symptoms in schizophrenic patients. In
animal studies, drugs that increase dopamine neurotransmission
cause behavioural effects such as increased locomotion, climbing
and deficits in prepulse inhibition. Known antipsychotics and
dopamine receptor antagonists can block these behavioural effects.
Unfortunately, dopamine receptor antagonists also cause severe
extrapyramidal side effects in patients as predicted by induction
of catalepsy in animal models. These extrapyramidal side effects
include tremor, bradykinesia, akithesias, and tardive
dyskinesias.
[0007] Due in part to these observations, the discovery of agents
with M.sub.1 receptor agonist activity has been sought after for
the treatment of dementia. However, existing agents lack
specificity in their actions at the various muscarinic receptor
subtypes. Known M.sub.1 muscarinic agonists such as arecoline have
also been found to be weak agonists of M.sub.2 as well as M.sub.3
receptor subtypes and are ineffective in the treatment of cognitive
impairment, due in large part to their dose-limiting M.sub.2 and
M.sub.3 receptor mediated side effects.
[0008] Xanomeline (Shannon et al., J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 1994,
269, 271; Shannon et al., Schizophrenia Res. 2000, 42, 249) is an
M.sub.1/M.sub.4 preferring muscarinic receptor agonist with little
or no affinity for dopamine receptors despite inhibiting A10 but
not A9 dopamine cells. The thiadiazole derivative PTAC has been
reported (Shannon et al., European Journal of Pharmacology, 1998,
356, 109) to have partial agonist effect at muscarinic M.sub.2 and
M.sub.4 receptors and antagonist effect at muscarinic M.sub.1,
M.sub.3, and M.sub.5 receptors as well as exhibiting functional
dopamine antagonism.
[0009] Recently, muscarinic agonists including xanomeline have been
shown to be active in animal models with similar profiles to known
antipsychotic drugs, but without causing catalepsy (Bymaster et
al., Eur. J. Pharmacol. 1998, 356, 109, Bymaster et al., Life Sci.
1999, 64, 527, Shannon et al., J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 1999, 290,
901, Shannon et al., Schizophrenia Res. 2000, 42, 249). Further,
xanomeline was shown to reduce psychotic behavioural symptoms such
as delusions, suspiciousness, vocal outbursts, and hallucinations
in Alzheimer's disease patients (Bodick et al., Arch. Neurol. 1997,
54, 465), however treatment induced side effects that severely
limit the clinical utility of this compound.
[0010] Analogues of 1,2,5-thiadiazole have been reported (Sauerberg
et al., J. Med. Chem. 1998, 41, 4378) to have high affinity and
selectivity for central muscarinic receptors as well as exhibiting
functional dopamine antagonism despite lack of affinity for
dopamine receptors.
[0011] The present investigators have focussed their efforts on the
development of a molecule that simultaneously reduced the positive
symptoms and improved the negative symptoms and the cognitive
impairments associated with schizophrenia as a novel treatment of
mental disorders. It is the intent of the present investigators to
demonstrate that muscarinic M.sub.1 and/or M.sub.4 agonists with
combined D.sub.2 antagonist activity may possess superior
antipsychotic efficacy without the side effects associated with
high dose D.sub.2 antagonism alone. The D.sub.2 antagonist
properties of these molecules may contribute to a reduction in the
positive symptoms of this disease.
[0012] Based on distribution of M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 receptors in
the cerebral cortex and hippocampus (the areas involved in higher
order cognitive functions), the M.sub.1 and/or M.sub.4 agonist
properties of these compounds may reduce the cognitive dulling and
perhaps ameliorate other negative symptoms associated with
schizophrenia. (Friedman, Biol. Psychiatry, 1999, 45, 1; Rowley, J.
Med. Chem. 2001, 44, 477; Felder, J. Med. Chem. 2000, 43, 4333).
This unique combination of central nervous system activities in one
molecule is unprecedented and may lead to the development of an
entirely new class of antipsychotic drugs, ones with the superior
clinical properties without the limiting side-effect profile.

benzimidazolones and derivatives thereof. The compounds according
to WO 99/32481 are intended for treatment of glaucoma, myopia,

and U.S. Pat. No. 5,756,508 are reported to have antimuscarinic
activity used for treatment and/or prevention of myopia.

side effects than pilocarpine therapy.

activity of some 1-(3-piperidinopropyl)benzothiazolone derivatives
in Farmaco, 1999, 54, 846.
[0020] There is a need in the art to provide compounds that
increase acetylcholine signaling or effect in the brain.
Specifically there is a need for muscarinic agonists that are
active at various muscarinic receptor subtypes in the central and
peripheral nervous system. There is a further need to develop more
highly selective muscarinic agonists, such as M.sub.1 and/or
M.sub.4 selective agents, both as pharmacological tools and as
potential therapeutic agents. Moreover, there is a need for
compounds aimed at the approach of treating psychosis using
compounds which has a combined muscarinic agonist and dopamine
antagonist profile.

contacting the cholinergic receptor or a system containing the
cholinergic receptor with an effective amount of at least one
compound of Formula I.
[0038] An increase in activity of the cholinergic receptor and the
cholinergic system is, as discussed supra, associated to the
activity of anti-psychotics. Accordingly, further aspects of the
present invention relate to a method of treating or preventing a
mental disorder in a mammal, comprising the administration of an
effective amount of a compound of Formula I and to the use of a
compound of Formula I, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof,
or a pharmaceutical composition containing either entity, for the
preparation of a medicament for the prophylactic or curative
treatment of psychosis or alleviation of symptoms of psychosis. In
the context of the present invention a mammal may be selected from
the group consisting of mice, rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, dogs,
cats, sheep, goats, cows, primates, such as monkeys, chimpanzees,
and apes, and humans. Most preferably, the mammal is a human.
[0039] Aspects of the invention relate to compounds of Formula I
for use as selective modulators of M.sub.1 and/or M.sub.4
muscarinic receptors for the treatment of disorders associated with
muscarinic receptors and especially with said receptor
subtypes.
[0040] As stated, compounds of Formula I have surprisingly been
found to have selectivity for the M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 muscarinic
receptor subtypes. Therapeutic advantages may be derived from this
selectivity. Further therapeutic advantages may be derived from the
concomitant muscarinic M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 agonist activity and
dopaminergic D.sub.2 antagonist activity.
[0041] Compounds of Formula I, by the modulation of muscarinic
receptors may be implicated in the control of amyloid precursor
processing, in particular by the activation of the M.sub.1
receptor. Thus, a further aspect of the present invention relates
to a method of modulating or preventing the progression or
formation of amyloid plaques in an individual susceptible to or
affected by Alzheimer's Disease by administering an effective
amount of a compound of Formula I, said effective amount sufficient
to modulate amyloid precursor protein processing.

[0062] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a
formulation of a compound that does not cause significant
irritation to an organism to which it is administered and does not
abrogate the biological activity and properties of the compound.
Pharmaceutical salts can be obtained by reacting a compound of the
invention with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid,
hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid,
methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid,
salicylic acid and the like. Pharmaceutical salts can also be
obtained by reacting a compound of the invention with a base to
form a salt such as an ammonium salt, an alkali metal salt, such as
a sodium or a potassium salt, an alkaline earth metal salt, such as
a calcium or a magnesium salt, a salt of organic bases such as
dicyclohexylamine, N-methyl-D-glucamine,
tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamine, and salts with amino acids such as
arginine, lysine, and the like.
[0063] A "prodrug" refers to an agent that is converted into the
parent drug in vivo. Prodrugs are often useful because, in some
situations, they may be easier to administer than the parent drug.
They may, for instance, be bioavailable by oral administration
whereas the parent is not. The prodrug may also have improved
solubility in pharmaceutical compositions over the parent drug. An
example, without limitation, of a prodrug would be a compound of
the present invention which is administered as an ester (the
"prodrug") to facilitate transmittal across a cell membrane where
water solubility is detrimental to mobility but which then is
metabolically hydrolyzed to the carboxylic acid, the active entity,
once inside the cell where water-solubility is beneficial. A
further example of a prodrug might be a short peptide
(polyaminoacid) bonded to an acid group where the peptide is
metabolized to reveal the active moiety.
[0064] The term "selective" or "selectivity" is intended to mean
the ability of a compound to generate a desired response from a
particular receptor type, subtype, class or subclass while
generating less or little response from other receptor types.
"Selective" or "selectivity" of an M.sub.1 or M.sub.4 muscarinic
agonist compound is intended to mean the ability of a compound to
increase the activity of the M.sub.1 or M.sub.4 muscarinic
receptor, respectively, while causing non-substantial, little or no
increase in the activity of other subtypes including M.sub.3 and
M.sub.5 subtypes, and preferably the M.sub.2 subtype. Compounds of
the presents invention may also show selectivity toward both
M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 receptors, i.e. increase the activity of both
the M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 muscarinic receptors, while causing little
or no increase in the activity of other subtypes including M.sub.3
and M.sub.5 subtypes, and preferably the M.sub.2 subtype.

[0081] In certain embodiments of the present invention, the spacer
unit SPU comprises a number of optionally substituted methylene
groups CR.sup.6R.sup.7. It is understood by the phrase "each
R.sup.6 and each R.sup.7 is optionally and independently selected"
that not all R.sup.6 groups may be identical and not all R.sup.7
groups may be identical. Thus, each substituted methylene group may
have an R.sup.6 and an R.sup.7 that is different than any other
R.sup.6 or R.sup.7 substituents on other methylene groups. In some
embodiments, some of R.sup.6 or R.sup.7 substituents may be
identical in one or more methylene groups.
[0082] In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a
compound of Formula I, wherein
[0083] X is selected from the group consisting of O, N and S;
[0084] Z is N
[0085] Y is .dbd.O or tautomers thereof,
[0086] SPU is a spacer unit providing a distance d between Z and N
wherein -SPU- is --(CR.sup.6R.sup.7).sub.n-A-, n is 3, and A is
absent;
[0087] N together with R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 form a piperidine ring
substituted with one or more substituents R.sup.4 selected from the
group consisting of hydroxy, halogen, C.sub.1-8-alkyl,
C.sub.3-8-cycloalkyl, C.sub.1-8-alkoxy, C.sub.1-8-alkylcarbonyl,
C.sub.1-8-alkylidene, C.sub.2-8-alkenyl, C.sub.2-8-alkynyl,
C.sub.1-6-alkyloxyimino, and C.sub.1-6-alkyloxyamino each of which
may be optionally substituted with a substituent R.sup.5
[0088] and wherein at least one of said substituents R.sup.4 is
R.sup.4' selected from the group consisting of C.sub.1-8-alkyl,
C.sub.3-8-cycloalkyl, C.sub.1-8-alkoxy, C.sub.1-8-alkylidenec, each
of which may be optionally substituted with a substituent
R.sup.5;
[0089] R.sup.5 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen,
halogen, hydroxy, C.sub.1-8-alkyl, C.sub.1-8-alkoxy,
C.sub.3-8-cycloalkyl, C.sub.3-8-heterocyclyl,
C.sub.1-8-alkylcarbonyl, C.sub.1-8-alkylidene, C.sub.2-8-alkenyl
and C.sub.2-8-alkynyl;
[0090] R.sup.X may be absent or selected from the group consisting
of hydrogen, optionally substituted C.sub.1-8-alkyl;
[0091] R.sup.3 may be present 0-4 times and selected from the group

C.sub.1-8-alkylcarbonyl; and
[0092] each R.sup.6 and each R.sup.7 is optionally and
independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen,
halogen, hydroxy, optionally substituted C.sub.1-8-alkyl,
C.sub.3-8-cycloalkyl,
[0093] In certain embodiments of compound of Formula I, Z is N
(nitrogen). Thus, the distance d relates to the distance between
the ring nitrogen atom and the nitrogen atom of
N(R.sup.1)R.sup.2.
[0094] In compounds of Formula I, X may be selected from the group
consisting of N, S, and O, preferably N and O. In a preferred
embodiment X and Z are both N.
[0095] In a suitable embodiment of compounds of Formula I, --Y is
selected from the group consisting of .dbd.O, .dbd.S and tautomers
thereof. Tautomers of the carbonyl and thiocarbonyl moiety are
known to the person skilled in the art and are isomers involving
migration of the pi system from the exo-cyclic to the endocyclic
position. The enolic or thio-enolic derivative may be O- or
S-alkylated in a manner known to the person skilled in the art.
[0096] In a preferred embodiment however, --Y is .dbd.O or its
tautomer. Preferably --Y is .dbd.O. Thus, in a combination of
preferred embodiments, X is N, --Y is .dbd.O, and Z is N, resulting
in a benzimidazolidinone ring system.
[0097] The moiety Z is substituted with a spacer unit (SPU). SPU
provides a distance d between Z and N. The distance d is formed
from a short, optionally substituted aliphatic chain,
(CR.sup.6R.sup.7).sub.n, wherein n is in the range 1 to 5, such as
1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 or from said chain and a
--C.sub.3-8-cycloalkyl-ring. Thus, d may be defined in terms of
through-bond distances between Z and N of N(R.sup.1)R.sup.2 or a
combination of through-bond and through-space distances between Z
and N of N(R.sup.1)R.sup.2. Thus, -SPU- is a biradical selected
from the group consisting of --(CR.sup.6R.sup.7).sub.n-A- and
--C.sub.3-8-cycloalkyl- wherein n is in the range 1 to 5 and
[0098] A is absent or an optionally substituted
--C.sub.3-8-cycloalkyl. Preferably, n is in the range 2 to 5, most
preferably 2 to 4, such as 2, 3, or 4.
[0099] In an interesting embodiment of the present invention, the
C.sub.3-8-cycloalkyl-ring of -SPU- is an optionally substituted
cyclohexylene. Thus, -SPU- may be selected from the group
consisting of --(CR.sup.4R.sup.5).sub.n-A- and an optionally
substituted cyclohexylene wherein n is in the range 1 to 5,
preferably 2 to 5 and A is absent or an optionally substituted
cyclohexylene.
[0100] In an interesting embodiment, -SPU- is an ethylene,
propylene, butylene, or pentylene biradical, preferably ethylene,
propylene or butylene, each of which may be optionally substituted.
Alternatively, -SPU- is a cyclohexylene biradical.
[0101] The cyclohexylene of -SPU- may be an optionally substituted
1,3-cyclohexylene or an optionally substituted 1,4-cyclohexylene,
preferably an optionally substituted 1,4-cyclohexylene. That is to
say that in the embodiment where SPU is or comprises of a

with a substituent R.sup.5.
[0104] Thus, the heterocyclic ring formed by N together with
R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 may be substituted with one or more substituent
R.sup.4 wherein at least one R.sup.4 is R.sup.4'.
[0105] As stated, the heterocyclic ring formed by N together with

[0108] In a preferred embodiment, R.sup.4 is selected from the
group consisting of hydrogen, hydroxy and halogen most preferably

[0109] The one or more substituent R.sup.4' may be selected from
the group consisting of C.sub.1-8-alkyl, C.sub.3-8-cycloalkyl,

[0112] As will be clear to the person skilled in the art,
embodiments of compound I may be chiral or comprised of one or more
chiral centres. Where the compounds according to the invention have
at least one chiral center, they may exist as a racemate,
enantiomers or diastereomers. It should be noted that all such
isomers and mixtures thereof are included in the scope of the
present invention. Furthermore, some of the crystalline forms for
compounds of the present invention may exist as polymorphs and as
such are intended to be included in the present invention. In
addition, some of the compounds of the present invention may form
solvates with water (i.e. hydrates) or common organic solvents.
Such solvates are also included in the scope of this invention.
[0113] Where the processes for the preparation of the compounds
according to the invention give rise to mixtures of stereoisomers,
such isomers may be separated by conventional techniques such as
preparative chiral chromatography. The compounds may be prepared in
racemic form, or individual enantiomers may be prepared either by
stereoselective synthesis or by resolution. The compounds may, for
example, be resolved into their component enantiomers by standard
techniques, such as the formation of diastereomeric pairs by salt
formation with an optically active acid, such as
(-)-di-p-toluoyl-d-tartaric acid and/or (+)-di-p-toluoyl-l-tartaric
acid followed by fractional crystallization and regeneration of the
free base. The compounds may also be resolved by formation of
diastereomeric esters or amides, followed by chromatographic
separation and removal of the chiral auxiliary.
[0114] During any of the processes for preparation of the compounds
of the present invention, it may be necessary or desirable to
protect sensitive or reactive groups on any of the molecules
concerned. This may be achieved by means of conventional protecting
groups, such as those described in Protective Groups in Organic
Chemistry, ed. J. F. W. McOmie, Plenum Press, 1973; and T. W.
Greene & P. G. M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis,
John Wiley & Sons, 1991. The protecting groups may be removed
at a convenient subsequent stage using methods known from the
art.
[0115] The term R.sup.X relates to a substituent of the term X and
may be absent or selected from the group consisting of hydrogen,
C.sub.1-8-alkyl, C.sub.3-8-cycloalkyl,
CH.sub.2--N(R.sup.5)(R.sup.5), CH.sub.2--OR.sup.5,
CH.sub.2--SR.sup.5, CH.sub.2--O--C(.dbd.O)R.sup.5,
CH.sub.2--O--C(.dbd.S)R.sup.5; wherein R.sup.5 is selected from the
group consisting of hydrogen, halogen, optionally substituted aryl,
optionally substituted heteroaryl, optionally substituted
C.sub.3-8-cycloalkyl, optionally substituted
C.sub.3-8-heterocyclyl, optionally substituted C.sub.1-8-alkyl,
optionally substituted C.sub.1-8-alkylidene, optionally substituted
C.sub.2-8-alkenyl, optionally substituted C.sub.2-8-alkynyl and
optionally substituted C.sub.1-8-alkylcarbonyl. In a preferred
embodiment, R.sup.X is selected from the group consisting of
hydrogen, C.sub.1-8-alkyl, CH.sub.2--N(R.sup.5)(R.sup.5),
CH.sub.2--OR.sup.5, and CH.sub.2--O--C(.dbd.O)R.sup.5. The nature
of R.sup.X depends on X. It is intended to serve so as to make a
prodrug of the molecule, to increase its bioavailability, or to
lower the reactivity of the term X, such as in a protective group.
In a suitable embodiment, R.sup.X is a C.sub.1-8-alkyl such as
methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl, or hexyl, typically methyl,
ethyl or propyl.
[0116] As can be derived from the Examples and from the disclosure
herein, the compounds according to Formula I are intended for use
as a pharmaceutical. Thus, a further aspect of the invention
relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound as
described herein, together with pharmaceutically acceptable
carriers or excipients. Excipients and carriers will depend on,
amongst other factors, the route of administration of the
compound.
[0117] Compounds of the present invention may be administered in
any of the foregoing compositions and according to dosage regimens
established in the art whenever specific pharmacological
modification of the activity of muscarinic receptors is
required.
[0118] The present invention also provides pharmaceutical
compositions comprising one or more compounds of Formula I together
with a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent or excipient. Preferably
such compositions are in unit dosage forms such as tablets, pills,
capsules (including sustained-release or delayed-release
formulations), powders, granules, elixirs, tinctures, syrups and
emulsions, sterile parenteral solutions or suspensions, aerosol or
liquid sprays, drops, ampoules, auto-injector devices or
suppositories; for oral, parenteral (e.g., intravenous,
intramuscular or subcutaneous), intranasal, sublingual or rectal
administration, or for administration by inhalation or
insufflation, and may be formulated in an appropriate manner and in
accordance with accepted practices such as those disclosed in
Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Gennaro, Ed., Mack Publishing
Co., Easton Pa., 1990. Alternatively, the compositions may be in
sustained-release form suitable for once-weekly or once-monthly
administration; for example, an insoluble salt of the active
compound, such as the decanoate salt, may be adapted to provide a
depot preparation for intramuscular injection. The present
invention also contemplates providing suitable topical formulations
for administration to, e.g., eye or skin or mucosa.
[0119] For instance, for oral administration in the form of a
tablet or capsule, the active drug component can be combined with
an oral, non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable inert carrier such
as ethanol, glycerol, water and the like. Moreover, when desired or
necessary, suitable binders, lubricants, disintegrating agents,
flavoring agents and coloring agents can also be incorporated into
the mixture. Suitable binders include, without limitation, starch,
gelatin, natural sugars such as glucose or beta-lactose, natural
and synthetic gums such as acacia, tragacanth or sodium alginate,
carboxymethylcellulose, polyethylene glycol, waxes and the like.
Lubricants used in these dosage forms include, without limitation,
sodium oleate, sodium stearate, magnesium stearate, sodium
benzoate, sodium acetate, sodium chloride and the like.
Disintegrators include, without limitation, starch, methyl
cellulose, agar, bentonite, xanthan gum and the like.
[0120] For preparing solid compositions such as tablets, the active
ingredient is mixed with a suitable pharmaceutical excipient, e.g.,
such as the ones described above, and other pharmaceutical
diluents, e.g., water, to form a solid preformulation composition
containing a homogeneous mixture of a compound of the present
invention, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. By the
term "homogeneous" is meant that the active ingredient is dispersed
evenly throughout the composition so that the composition may be
readily subdivided into equally effective unit dosage forms such as
tablets, pills and capsules. The solid preformulation composition
may then be subdivided into unit dosage forms of the type described
above containing from 0.1 to about 50 mg of the active ingredient
of the present invention. The tablets or pills of the present
composition may be coated or otherwise compounded to provide a
dosage form affording the advantage of prolonged action. For
example, the tablet or pill can comprise an inner core containing
the active compound and an outer layer as a coating surrounding the
core. The outer coating may be an enteric layer, which serves to
resist disintegration in the stomach and permits the inner core to
pass intact into the duodenum or to be delayed in release. A
variety of materials can be used for such enteric layers or
coatings, such materials including a number of polymeric acids and
mixtures of polymeric acids with conventional materials such as
shellac, cetyl alcohol and cellulose acetate.
[0121] The liquid forms in which the present compositions may be
incorporated for administration orally or by injection include
aqueous solutions, suitably flavored syrups, aqueous or oil
suspensions, and flavored emulsions with edible oils such as
cottonseed oil, sesame oil, coconut oil or peanut oil, as well as
elixirs and similar pharmaceutical carriers. Suitable dispersing or
suspending agents for aqueous suspensions include synthetic and
natural gums such as tragacanth, acacia, alginate, dextran, sodium
carboxymethylcellulose, gelatin, methylcellulose or
polyvinyl-pyrrolidone. Other dispersing agents, which may be
employed, include glycerin and the like. For parenteral
administration, sterile suspensions and solutions are desired.
Isotonic preparations, which generally contain suitable
preservatives, are employed when intravenous administration is
desired. The compositions can also be formulated as an ophthalmic
solution or suspension formation, i.e., eye drops, for ocular
administration.
[0122] Advantageously, compounds of the present invention may be
administered in a single daily dose, or the total daily dosage may
be administered in divided doses two, three or four times daily.
Furthermore, compounds for the present invention may be
administered in intranasal form via topical use of suitable
intranasal vehicles, or via transdermal routes, using those forms
of transdermal skin patches well known to persons skilled in the
art. To be administered in the form of a transdermal delivery
system, the dosage administration will, of course, be continuous
rather than intermittent throughout the dosage regimen.
[0123] The dosage regimen utilizing the compounds of the present
invention is selected in accordance with a variety of factors
including type, species, age, weight, sex and medical condition of
the patient; the severity of the condition to be treated; the route
of administration; the renal and hepatic function of the patient;
and the particular compound employed. A physician or veterinarian
of ordinary skill can readily determine and prescribe the effective
amount of the drug required to prevent, counter or arrest the
progress of the disease or disorder, which is being treated.
[0124] The daily dosage of the products may be varied over a wide
range from 0.01 to 100 mg per adult human per day. For oral
administration, the compositions are preferably provided in the
form of tablets containing 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0,
10.0, 15.0, 25.0 or 50.0 mg of the active ingredient for the
symptomatic adjustment of the dosage to the patient to be treated.
A unit dose typically contains from about 0.001 mg to about 50 mg
of the active ingredient, preferably from about 1 mg to about 10 mg
of active ingredient. An effective amount of the drug is ordinarily
supplied at a dosage level of from about 0.0001 mg/kg to about 25
mg/kg of body weight per day. Preferably, the range is from about
0.001 to 10 mg/kg of body weight per day, and especially from about
0.001 mg/kg to 1 mg/kg of body weight per day. The compounds may be
administered on a regimen of 1 to 4 times per day.
[0125] Compounds according to the present invention may be used
alone at appropriate dosages defined by routine testing in order to
obtain optimal pharmacological effect on a muscarinic receptor, in
particular the muscarinic M.sub.1 or M.sub.4 receptor subtype,
while minimizing any potential toxic or otherwise unwanted effects.
In addition, co-administration or sequential administration of
other agents, which improve the effect of the compound, may, in
some cases, be desirable.
[0126] The pharmacological properties and the selectivity of the
compounds of this invention for specific muscarinic receptor
subtypes may be demonstrated by a number of different assay methods
using recombinant receptor subtypes, preferably of the human
receptors if these are available, e.g., conventional second
messenger or binding assays. A particularly convenient functional
assay system is the receptor selection and amplification assay
disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,707,798 describing a method of
screening for bioactive compounds by utilizing the ability of cells
transfected with receptor DNA, e.g., coding for the different
muscarinic subtypes, to amplify in the presence of a ligand of the
receptor. Cell amplification is detected as increased levels of a
marker also expressed by the cells.
[0127] An important aspect of the present invention relates to a
method of increasing an activity of a cholinergic receptor
comprising contacting the cholinergic receptor or a system
containing the cholinergic receptor with an effective amount of at
least one compound of Formula I, as defined supra. The present
investigators have surprisingly found that the compounds of Formula
I act as cholinergic agonists and, most remarkably, the compounds
of Formula I are selective for the either the M.sub.1 or M.sub.4,
or both the M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 muscarinic receptor subtypes.
[0128] Furthermore, beyond the remarkable selectivity of the
compounds of the present invention for the M.sub.1 and M.sub.4
muscarinic receptor subtypes, the present investigators have
surprisingly found that compounds of Formula I further act as
dopaminergic D.sub.2 antagonists or D.sub.2 inverse agonists.
[0129] As was discussed earlier, this combined activity (M.sub.1
and M.sub.4 agonism, dopaminergic D.sub.2 antagonism) is an
attractive method of treating an array of mental disorders.
Consequently, a further important aspect of the present invention
relates to a method of treating or preventing a mental disorder in
a mammal, such as a human, comprising the administration of an
effective amount of a compound of Formula I.
[0130] Disorders considered to be suitable for treatment by either
M.sub.1 and/or M.sub.4 agonism, or combined M.sub.1/M.sub.4 agonism
and dopaminergic D.sub.2 antagonism are selected from the group
consisting of cognitive impairment, forgetfulness, confusion,
memory loss, attentional deficits, deficits in visual perception,
depression, pain, sleep disorders, psychosis, and increased
intraocular pressure.
[0131] Further, suitable disorders considered to be suitable and
particularly attractive may be selected from the group consisting
of neurodegenerative diseases, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's
disease, schizophrenia, Huntington's chorea, Friederich's ataxia,
Gilles de la Tourette's Syndrome, Down Syndrome, Pick disease,
dementia, clinical depression, age-related cognitive decline,
attention-deficit disorder, sudden infant death syndrome, and
glaucoma.
[0132] Furthermore the compounds of this invention are useful in
the treatment of mania, bipolar disorder, unipolar disorder,
schizoaffective disorder, schizophreniform disorder and anxiety. It
should be noted that other non-schizophrenic causes of psychosis,
including drug induced, those associated with dementia and other
neurodegenerative disorders (such as Huntington's) are also
anticipated to be suitable.
[0133] The Tic disorders also include a spectrum of disorders
including Tourettes and OCD.
[0134] The affective disorder spectrum, including unipolar, bipolar
are also anticipated to be suitable for treatment using compounds
of Formula I.
[0135] An important aspect of the invention therefore relates to
the use of a compound according or a pharmaceutically acceptable
salt thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition containing either
entity, for the preparation of a medicament for the prophylactic or
curative treatment of psychosis or alleviation of symptoms
associated with psychosis.
[0136] The medicament acts, at least in part, as an M.sub.1 agonist
or as M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 agonist. The compound according to
Formula I may further act as a D.sub.2 antagonist. Thus, an
important aspect of the invention relates to a use of compounds of
Formula I as M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 agonist, as well as D.sub.2
antagonists. Illustrative examples of compounds with this combined
activity are tabulated in Example 1.
[0137] Compounds 61KS19, 45NK70, 45NK71, 45NK110, 61KS12 and 61KS13
have high binding efficacy for the M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 receptor
subtypes. Moreover, compounds of Formula I have high selectivity
for the M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 receptor subtypes over M.sub.2,
M.sub.3, M.sub.5 receptor subtypes. Further, compounds of Formula I
have D.sub.2 antagonistic activity.
[0138] As discussed in Felder et al (J. Med. Chem. 2000),
muscarinic receptors may be implicated in the control of amyloid
precursor processing, in particular by activation of the M.sub.1
receptor. Thus, a further aspect of the present invention relates
to a method of modulating or preventing the progression or
formation of amyloid plaques in an individual susceptible to or
affected by Alzheimer's Disease by administering an effective
amount of a compound of Formula I, said effective amount sufficient
to modulate amyloid precursor protein processing.
EXAMPLES
[0139] Embodiments of the present invention is disclosed in further
detail in the following examples, which are not in any way intended
to limit the scope of the invention as claimed.
Example 1
Screening Assay
[0140] In the present example, methods for R-SAT and radioligand
binding are described. In addition, screening of test compounds in
assays using muscarinic receptor subtypes M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 and
dopamine receptor subtype D.sub.2 are described.
Methods
[0141] The M.sub.1 and M.sub.4 muscarinic receptor subtypes were
cloned substantially as described by Bonner et al., (1987) Science
273 p. 527 and Bonner et al, (1988) Neuron 1, p. 403. R-SAT assays
were carried out substantially as described in U.S. Pat. No.
5,707,798 and by Brauner-Osborne, H. B. and Brann, M. R. (1995),
Eur. J. Pharmacol. 295:93-102. NIH-3T3 cells (available from the
American Type Culture Collection as ATCC CRL 1658) were transfected
with plasmid DNA encoding the m1 and m4 receptors and plasmid DNA
encoding .beta.-galactosidase. Transfected cells were grown in the
presence of between 1 nM and 40 .mu.M of the test compound for 5
days. On day 5, the cells were lysed using 0.5% nonidet-P and
.beta.-galactosidase expression was quantified using the
chromogenic substrate o-nitrophenyl-.beta.-D-galactoside
(ONGP).
[0142] Data were normalized relative to the maximum response of the
cells to the muscarinic agonist carbachol, and the following
equation was fitted to the data:
response=minimum+(maximum-minimum)/(1+([ligand]/EC.sub.50)) %
Efficacy was defined as (maximum-minimum)/(maximum response of
cells to carbachol). pEC.sub.50=-log(EC.sub.50). Where data gave a
bell-shaped curve, "maximum" was defined as the highest observed
response.
[0143] The D.sub.2 dopamine receptor subtype was cloned
substantially as described by Stormann, Gdula, Weiner and Brann,
1990 [Mol Pharmacol 37, 1-6]. Cell membranes expressing the D.sub.2
receptor were prepared by transfecting tSA cells (Chahine, M.,
Bennet, P. B., George, A. L., Horn, R. (1994) Pfluegers Arch. 427,
136-142) with 10 .mu.g plasmid DNA encoding the human dopamine
D.sub.2 receptor and 40 .mu.l Superfect (Qiagen). The cells were
harvested 48 hours and transfection and membranes were prepared by
homogenizing the cells using a Polytron harvester in 20 mM Hepes,
10 mM EDTA, pH 7.4. The homogenate was centrifuged for 30 minutes
at 37,000 g. The pellet was homogenized again in 60 ml 20 mM Hepes,
5 mM EDTA. The homogenate was centrifuged for 30 minutes at 37,000
g. The supernatant was discarded. The pellet was homogenized again
in 10 ml 20 mM Hepes, 1 mM EDTA. The resultant membranes were
frozen at -80.degree. C.
[0144] The membranes were combined with 150 pM [.sup.3H]-Spiperone
(Amersham-Pharmacia, 107 Ci/mmol) and ligand concentrations between
1 nM and 10 .mu.M, or haloperidol concentrations between 0.1 nM and
1 .mu.M in 460 .mu.l 20 mM Hepes, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1% (w/v) bovine
serum albumin. Nonspecific binding was defined as binding in the
presence of 1 .mu.M haloperidol. The membranes were incubated for 4
hours at 37.degree. C., and then filtered onto Packard GFB
Filterplates using a Packard harvester. The membranes were dried
and 50 .mu.l Microscint (Packard) was added to each well. The
amount of bound radioligand was quantified using a Packard Topcount
scintillation counter.
[0145] Data were normalized relative to the maximum inhibition of
[.sup.3H]-Spiperone binding by 1 .mu.M haloperidol, and the
following equation was fitted to the data: %
inhibition=minimum+(maximum-minimum)/(1+([ligand]/[IC.sub.50])) %
inhibition was defined as (maximum-minimum)/(maximum response of
cells to haloperidol). pIC.sub.50=-log(IC.sub.50). NT=not
tested.

Behavioral Studies
Methods
Animals
[0147] Male Non-Swiss Albino mice (Harlan Sprague-Dawley) were
housed (4 mice/cage) in rooms with temperature and humidity
controlled and water and food (Harlan Teklad) freely available.
Mice were kept on a 12-hr light:dark cycle.
Procedure
Locomotor Activity
[0148] Plastic 20.times.20.times.30 cm activity cages were equipped
with photocell beams (AccuScan Instruments). For spontaneous
activity, 61KS19 (1, 3 and 10 mg/kg) was administered alone i.p. 30
min before the session. For hyperactivity experiments, mice were
treated with 0.3 mg/kg dizocilpine, 3.0 mg/kg d-amphetamine or 3.0
mg/kg scopolamine i.p. 15 min before the session (15 min after
61KS19). Locomotor data were collected during a 15 min session
without habituation in a lit room. Each dose combination was tested
in a separate group of animals (n=8). Distance traveled (cm) was
calculated and averaged followed by ANOVA and post-hoc Dunnett's
t-test comparisons.
Catalepsy
[0149] A custom-built 8-mm rod that is raised 3.5 cm from the lab
benchtop was used. 61KS19 (10 mg/kg) or haloperidol (1 mg/kg) were
administered i.p. 60 min before the start of the session. The
forepaws of each animal is placed on the rod and the time to step
down is measured. If the animal steps off immediately, another
attempt is made until the animal stays on for more than 10 sec or
10 attempts have been made. A maximum of 2 min is allowed at which
time the animal is taken away from the rod and returned to the
homecage. Each dose or dose combination was tested in a separate
group of animals (n=6). Averages and standard errors were
calculated and compared using an ANOVA and post-hoc Dunnett's
t-tests.

Synthetic Procedures
3.1 General Preparative LC-MS Procedure
[0150] Preparative purification was performed on a Waters auto
purification system (600 pumps, 2700 sample manager, 996 PDA
detector, ZMD mass spectrometer).
[0151] The columns used were YMC C18 J'sphere ODS H80. Buffer A was
0.15% TFA in water, buffer B was 0.15% TFA in acetonitrile/water
95/5. The columns were operated at 17 ml/min. Following an initial
hold of 2.5 min at 30% buffer B, compounds were separated using a
gradient af 30-100% buffer B in 8.5 min. A dual column setup with
two pumps was used to equilibrate one column, while running on the
other.
