BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
G Protein Coupled Receptors
[0003] G Protein coupled receptors share a common structural motif.
All these receptors have seven sequences of between 22 to 24
hydrophobic amino acids that form seven alpha helices, each of
which spans the membrane. The transmembrane helices are joined by
strands of amino acids having a larger loop between the fourth and
fifth transmembrane helix on the extracellular side of the
membrane. Another larger loop, composed primarily of hydrophilic
amino acids, joins transmembrane helices five and six on the
intracellular side of the membrane. The carboxy terminus of the
receptor lies intracellularly with the amino terminus in the
extracellular space. It is thought that the loop joining helices
five and six, as well as, the carboxy terminus, interact with the G
protein. Currently, Gq, Gs, Gi and Go are G proteins that have been
identified.
[0004] Under physiological conditions, G protein coupled receptors
exist in the cell membrane in equilibrium between two different
states or conformations: an "inactive" state and an "active" state.
A receptor in an inactive state is unable to link to the
intracellular transduction pathway to produce a biological
response. Changing the receptor conformation to the active state
allows linkage to the transduction pathway and produces a
biological response.
[0005] A receptor may be stabilized in an active state by an
endogenous ligand or an exogenous agonist ligand. Recent
discoveries such as, including but not exclusively limited to,
modifications to the amino acid sequence of the receptor provide
means other than ligands to stabilize the active state
conformation. These means effectively stabilize the receptor in an
active state by simulating the effect of a ligand binding to the
receptor. Stabilization by such ligand-independent means is termed
"constitutive receptor activation."
[0006] Serotonin Receptors
[0007] Receptors for serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) are an
important class of G protein coupled receptors. Serotonin is
thought to play a role in processes related to learning and memory,
sleep, thermoregulation, mood, motor activity, pain, sexual and
aggressive behaviors, appetite, neurodegenerative regulation, and
biological rhythms. Not surprisingly, serotonin is linked to
pathophysiological conditions such as anxiety, depression,
obsessive compulsive disorders, schizophrenia, suicide, autism,
migraine, emesis, alcoholism, and neurodegenerative disorders. With
respect to anti-psychotic treatment approaches focused on the
serotonin receptors, these types of therapeutics can generally be
divided into two classes, the "typical" and the "atypical." Both
have anti-psychotic effects, but the typicals also include
concomitant motor-related side effects (extra pyramidal syndromes,
e.g., lip-smacking, tongue darting, locomotor movement, etc). Such
side effects are thought to be associated with the compounds
interacting with other receptors, such as the human dopamine
D.sub.2 receptor in the nigro-striatal pathway. Therefore, an
atypical treatment is preferred. Haloperidol is considered a
typical anti-psychotic, and clozapine is considered an atypical
anti-psychotic.
[0008] Serotonin receptors are divided into seven subfamilies,
referred to as 5-HT.sub.1 through 5-HT.sub.7, inclusive. These
subfamilies are further divided into subtypes. For example, the
5-HT.sub.2 subfamily is divided into three receptor subtypes:
5-HT.sub.2A, 5-HT.sub.2B, and 5-HT.sub.2C. The human 5-HT.sub.2C
receptor was first isolated and cloned in 1987, and the human
5-HT.sub.2A receptor was first isolated and cloned in 1990. These
two receptors are thought to be the site of action of
hallucinogenic drugs. Additionally, antagonists to the 5-HT.sub.2A
and 5-HT.sub.2C receptors are believed to be useful in treating
depression, anxiety, psychosis, and eating disorders.
[0009] U.S. Pat. No. 4,985,352 describes the isolation,
characterization, and expression of a functional cDNA clone
encoding the entire human 5-HT.sub.1C receptor (now known as the
5-HT.sub.2C receptor). U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,661,024 and 6,541,209
describe the isolation, characterization, and expression of a
functional cDNA clone encoding the entire human 5-HT.sub.2A
receptor.
[0010] Mutations of the endogenous forms of the rat 5-HT.sub.2A and
rat 5-HT.sub.2C receptors have been reported to lead to
constitutive activation of these receptors (5-HT.sub.2A: Casey, C.
et al. (1996) Society for Neuroscience Abstracts, 22:699.10,
hereinafter "Casey"; 5-HT.sub.2C: Herrick-Davis, K., and Teitler,
M. (1996) Society for Neuroscience Abstracts, 22:699.18,
hereinafter "Herrick-Davis 1"; and Herrick-Davis, K. et al. (1997)
J. Neurochemistry 69(3): 1138, hereinafter "Herrick-Davis-2").
Casey describes a mutation of the cysteine residue at position 322
of the rat 5-HT.sub.2A receptor to lysine (C322K), glutamine
(C322Q), and arginine (C322R) which reportedly led to constitutive
activation. Herrick-Davis 1 and Herrick-Davis 2 describe mutations
of the serine residue at position 312 of the rat 5-HT.sub.2C
receptor to phenylalanine (S312F) and lysine (S312K), which
reportedly led to constitutive activation.

[0381] Additionally, individual compounds and chemical genera of
the present invention, such as Formula (Ia) and related Formulae
therefrom, encompass all pharmaceutically acceptable salts,
solvates, and particularly hydrates, thereof.
[0382] It is understood that the present invention embraces each
diastereomer, each enantiomer and mixtures thereof of each compound
and generic Formulae disclosed herein just as if they were each
individually disclosed with the specific stereochemical designation
for each chiral atom, for example carbon.
[0383] The compounds of the Formula (Ia) of the present invention
can be prepared according to the general synthetic schemes in FIGS.
1 through 12 as well as relevant published literature procedures
that are used by one skilled in the art. Exemplary reagents and
procedures for these reactions appear hereinafter in the working
Examples. Protection and deprotection may be carried out by
procedures generally known in the art (see, for example, Greene, T.
W. and Wuts, P. G. M., Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis,
3.sup.Rd Edition, 1999 [Wiley]; incorporated herein by reference in
its entirety).
[0384] The present invention also encompasses diastereomers as well
as optical isomers, e.g. mixtures of enantiomers including racemic
mixtures, as well as individual enantiomers and diastereomers,
which arise as a consequence of structural asymmetry in certain
compounds of the invention. Separation of the individual isomers
(such as, chiral HPLC, recrystallization of diastereomeric mixture,
and the like) or selective synthesis (such as, enantiomeric
selective synthesis, and the like) of the individual isomers is
accomplished by application of various methods which are well known
to practitioners in the art.
Indications and Methods of Treatment
[0385] In addition to the foregoing beneficial uses for the
modulators of 5-HT.sub.2A receptor activity disclosed herein, the
compounds disclosed herein are believed to be useful in the
treatment of several additional diseases and disorders, and in the
amelioration of symptoms thereof. Without limitation, these include
the following:
[0386] 1. Antiplatelet Therapies (Conditions Related to Platelet
Aggregation):
[0387] Antiplatelet agents (antiplatelets) are prescribed for a
variety of conditions. For example, in coronary artery disease they
are used to help prevent myocardial infarction or stroke in
patients who are at risk of developing obstructive blood clots
(e.g., coronary thrombosis).
[0388] In a myocardial infarction (heart attack), the heart muscle
does not receive enough oxygen-rich blood as a result of a blockage
in the coronary blood vessels. If taken while an attack is in
progress or immediately afterward (preferably within 30 minutes),
antiplatelets can reduce the damage to the heart.
[0389] A transient ischemic attack ("TIA" or "mini-stroke") is a
brief interruption of oxygen flow to the brain due to decreased
blood flow through arteries, usually due to an obstructing blood
clot. Antiplatelet drugs have been found to be effective in
preventing TIAs.
[0390] Angina is a temporary and often recurring chest pain,
pressure or discomfort caused by inadequate oxygen-rich blood flow
(ischemia) to some parts of the heart. In patients with angina,
antiplatelet therapy can reduce the effects of angina and the risk
of myocardial infarction.
[0391] Stroke is an event in which the brain does not receive
enough oxygen-rich blood, usually due to blockage of a cerebral
blood vessel by a blood clot. In high-risk patients, taking
antiplatelets regularly has been found to prevent the formation of
blood clots that cause first or second strokes.
[0392] Angioplasty is a catheter based technique used to open
arteries obstructed by a blood clot.
[0393] Whether or not stenting is performed immediately after this
procedure to keep the artery open, antiplatelets can reduce the
risk of forming additional blood clots following the
procedure(s).
[0394] Coronary bypass surgery is a surgical procedure in which an
artery or vein is taken from elsewhere in the body and grafted to a
blocked coronary artery, rerouting blood around the blockage and
through the newly attached vessel. After the procedure,
antiplatelets can reduce the risk of secondary blood clots.
[0395] Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of sustained
irregular heart rhythm (arrythmia). Atrial fibrillation affects
about two million Americans every year. In atrial fibrillation, the
atria (the heart's upper chambers) rapidly fire electrical signals
that cause them to quiver rather than contract normally. The result
is an abnormally fast and highly irregular heartbeat. When given
after an episode of atrial fibrillation, antiplatelets can reduce
the risk of blood clots forming in the heart and traveling to the
brain (embolism).
[0396] 5-HT.sub.2A receptors are expressed on smooth muscle of
blood vessels and 5-HT secreted by activated platelets causes
vasoconstriction as well as activation of additional platelets
during clotting. There is evidence that a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse
agonist will inhibit platelet aggregation and thus be a potential
treatment as an antiplatelet therapy (see Satimura, K, et al., Clin
Cardiol 2002 Jan. 25 (1):28-32; and Wilson, H. C et al., Thromb
Haemost 1991 Sep. 2; 66(3):355-60).
[0397] 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonists can be used to treat, for
example, claudication or peripheral artery disease as well as
cardiovascular complications (see Br. Med. J. 298: 424-430, 1989),
Arterial thrombosis (see, Pawlak, D. et al. Thrombosis Research 90:
259-270, 1998), atherosclerosis (see, Hayashi, T. et al.
Atherosclerosis 168: 23-31, 2003), vasoconstriction, caused by
serotonin (see, Fujiwara, T. and Chiba, S. Journal of
Cardiovascular Pharmacology 26: 503-510, 1995), restenosis of
arteries following angioplasty or stent placement (see, Fujita, M.
et al. Am Heart J. 145:e16 2003). It can also be used alone or in
combination with thrombolytic therapy, for example, tPA (see,
Yamashita, T. et al. Haemostasis 30:321-332, 2000), to provide
cardioprotection following MI or postischemic myocardial
dysfunction (see, Muto, T. et al. Mol. Cell. Biochem. 272: 119-132,
2005) or protection from ischemic injury during percutaneous
coronary intervention (see, Horibe, E. Circulation Research 68:
68-72, 2004), and the like, including complications resulting
therefrom.
[0398] 5-HT.sub.2A inverse antagonists can increase circulating
adiponectin in patients, suggesting that they would also be useful
in protecting patients against indications that are linked to
adiponectin, for example, myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury
and artherosclerosis (see Nomura, Shosaku, et al. Blood Coagulation
and Fibrinolysis 2005, 16, 423-428).
[0399] The 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonists disclosed herein provide
beneficial improvement in microcirculation to patients in need of
antiplatelet therapy by antagonizing the vasoconstrictive products
of the aggregating platelets in, for example and not limited to the
indications described above. Accordingly, in some embodiments, the
present invention provides methods for reducing platelet
aggregation in a patient in need thereof comprising administering
to the patient a composition comprising a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse
agonist disclosed herein. In further embodiments, the present
invention provides methods for treating coronary artery disease,
myocardial infarction, transient ischemic attack, angina, stroke,
atrial fibrillation, or a symptom of any of the foregoing in a
patient in need of the treatment, comprising administering to the
patient a composition comprising a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist
disclosed herein.
[0400] In further embodiments, the present invention provides
methods for reducing risk of blood clot formation in an angioplasty
or coronary bypass surgery patient, or a patient suffering from
atrial fibrillation, comprising administering to the patient a
composition comprising a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist disclosed
herein at a time where such risk exists.
[0401] 2. Asthma
[0402] 5-HT (5-hydroxytryptamine) has been linked to the
pathophysiology of acute asthma (see Cazzola, M. and Matera, M. G.,
TIPS, 2000, 21, 13; and De Bie, J. J. et al., British J. Pharm.,
1998, 124, 857-864). The compounds of the present invention
disclosed herein are useful in the treatment of asthma, and the
treatment of the symptoms thereof. Accordingly, in some
embodiments, the present invention provides methods for treating
asthma in a patient in need of the treatment, comprising
administering to the patient a composition comprising a 5-HT.sub.2A
inverse agonist disclosed herein. In further embodiments, methods
are provided for treating a symptom of asthma in a patient in need
of the treatment, comprising administering to the patient a
composition comprising a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist disclosed
herein.
[0403] 3. Agitation
[0404] Agitation is a well-recognized behavioral syndrome with a
range of symptoms, including hostility, extreme excitement, poor
impulse control, tension and uncooperativeness (See Cohen-Mansfield
J, and Billig, N., (1986), Agitated Behaviors in the Elderly. I. A
Conceptual Review. J Am Geriatr Soc 34(10): 711-721).
[0405] Agitation is a common occurrence in the elderly and often
associated with dementia such as those caused by Alzheimer's
disease, Lewy Body, Parkinson's, and Huntington's, which are
degenerative diseases of the nervous system and by diseases that
affect blood vessels, such as stroke, or multi-infarct dementia,
which is caused by multiple strokes in the brain can also induce
dementia. Alzheimer's disease accounts for approximately 50 to 70%
of all dementias (See Koss E, et al., (1997), Assessing patterns of
agitation in Alzheimer's disease patients with the Cohen-Mansfield
Agitation Inventory. The Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study
Alzheimer Dis Assoc Disord 11(suppl 2):545-S50).
[0406] An estimated five percent of people aged 65 and older and up
to 20 percent of those aged 80 and older are affected by dementia;
of these sufferers, nearly half exhibit behavioral disturbances,
such as agitation, wandering and violent outbursts.
[0407] Agitated behaviors can also be manifested in cognitively
intact elderly people and by those with psychiatric disorders other
than dementia.
[0408] Agitation is often treated with antipsychotic medications
such as haloperidol in nursing home and other assisted care
settings. There is emerging evidence that agents acting at the
5-HT.sub.2A receptors in the brain have the effects of reducing
agitation in patients, including Alzheimer's dementia (See Katz, I.
R., et al., J Clin Psychiatry 1999 Feb., 60(2):107-115; and Street,
J. S., et al., Arch Gen Psychiatry 2000 Oct., 57(10):968-976).
[0409] The compounds of the invention disclosed herein are useful
for treating agitation and symptoms thereof. Thus, in some
embodiments, the present invention provides methods for treating
agitation in a patient in need of such treatment comprising
administering to the patient a composition comprising a 5-HT.sub.2A
inverse agonist disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the
agitation is due to a psychiatric disorder other than dementia. In
some embodiments, the present invention provides methods for
treatment of agitation or a symptom thereof in a patient suffering
from dementia comprising administering to the patient a composition
comprising a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist disclosed herein. In some
embodiments of such methods, the dementia is due to a degenerative
disease of the nervous system, for example and without limitation,
Alzheimers disease, Lewy Body, Parkinson's disease, and
Huntington's disease, or dementia due to diseases that affect blood
vessels, including, without limitation, stroke and multi-infarct
dementia. In some embodiments, methods are provided for treating
agitation or a symptom thereof in a patient in need of such
treatment, where the patient is a cognitively intact elderly
patient, comprising administering to the patient a composition
comprising a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist disclosed herein.
[0410] 4. Add-on Therapy to Haloperidol in the Treatment of
Schizophrenia and Other Disorders:
[0411] Schizophrenia is a psychopathic disorder of unknown origin,
which usually appears for the first time in early adulthood and is
marked by a number of characteristics, psychotic symptoms,
progression, phasic development and deterioration in social
behavior and professional capability in the region below the
highest level ever attained. Characteristic psychotic symptoms are
disorders of thought content (multiple, fragmentary, incoherent,
implausible or simply delusional contents or ideas of persecution)
and of mentality (loss of association, flight of imagination,
incoherence up to incomprehensibility), as well as disorders of
perceptibility (hallucinations), of emotions (superficial or
inadequate emotions), of self-perception, of intentions and
impulses, of interhuman relationships, and finally psychomotoric
disorders (such as catatonia). Other symptoms are also associated
with this disorder. (See, American Statistical and Diagnostic
Handbook).
[0412] Haloperidol (Haldol) is a potent dopamine D.sub.2 receptor
antagonist. It is widely prescribed for acute schizophrenic
symptoms, and is very effective for the positive symptoms of
schizophrenia. However, Haldol is not effective for the negative
symptoms of schizophrenia and may actually induce negative symptoms
as well as cognitive dysfunction. In accordance with some methods
of the invention, adding a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist
concomitantly with Haldol will provide benefits including the
ability to use a lower dose of Haldol without losing its effects on
positive symptoms, while reducing or eliminating its inductive
effects on negative symptoms, and prolonging relapse to the
patient's next schizophrenic event.
[0413] Haloperidol is used for treatment of a variety of behavioral
disorders, drug induced psychosis, excitative psychosis, Gilles de
la Tourette's syndrome, manic disorders, psychosis (organic and
NOS), psychotic disorder, psychosis, schizophrenia (acute, chronic
and NOS). Further uses include in the treatment of infantile
autism, huntington's chorea, and nausea and vomiting from
chemotherapy and chemotherapeutic antibodies. Administration of
5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonists disclosed herein with haloperidol also
will provide benefits in these indications.
[0414] In some embodiments, the present invention provides methods
for treating a behavioral disorder, drug induced psychosis,
excitative psychosis, Gilles de la Tourette's syndrome, manic
disorders, psychosis (organic and NOS), psychotic disorder,
psychosis, schizophrenia (acute, chronic and NOS) comprising
administering to the patient a dopamine D.sub.2 receptor antagonist
and a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist disclosed herein.
[0415] In some embodiments, the present invention provides methods
for treating a behavioral disorder, drug induced psychosis,
excitative psychosis, Gilles de la Tourette's syndrome, manic
disorders, psychosis (organic and NOS), psychotic disorder,
psychosis, schizophrenia (acute, chronic and NOS) comprising
administering to the patient haloperidol and a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse
agonist disclosed herein.
[0416] In some embodiments, the present invention provides methods
for treating infantile autism, huntington's chorea, or nausea and
vomiting from chemotherapy or chemotherapeutic antibodies
comprising administering to the patient a dopamine D.sub.2 receptor
antagonist and a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist disclosed herein.
[0417] In some embodiments, the present invention provides methods
for treating infantile autism, huntington's chorea, or nausea and
vomiting from chemotherapy or chemotherapeutic antibodies
comprising administering to the patient haloperidol and a
5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist disclosed herein.
[0418] In further embodiments, the present invention provides
methods for treating schizophrenia in a patient in need of the
treatment comprising administering to the patient a dopamine
D.sub.2 receptor antagonist and a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist
disclosed herein. Preferably, the dopamine D.sub.2 receptor
antagonist is haloperidol.
[0419] The administration of the dopamine D.sub.2 receptor
antagonist can be concomitant with administration of the
5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist, or they can be administered at
different times. Those of skill in the art will easily be able to
determine appropriate dosing regimes for the most efficacious
reduction or elimination of deleterious haloperidol effects. In
some embodiments, haloperidol and the 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist
are administered in a single dosage fog, 1, and in other
embodiments, they are administered in separate dosage forms.
[0420] The present invention further provides methods of
alleviating negative symptoms of schizophrenia induced by the
administration of haloperidol to a patient suffering from
schizophrenia, comprising administering to the patient a
5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist as disclosed herein.
[0421] 5. Sleep Disorders
[0422] It is reported in the National Sleep Foundation's 2002 Sleep
In America Poll, more than one-half of the adults surveyed (58%)
report having experienced one or more symptoms of insomnia at least
a few nights a week in the past year. Additionally, about three in
ten (35%) say they have experienced insomnia-like symptoms every
night or almost every night.
[0423] The normal sleep cycle and sleep architecture can be
disrupted by a variety of organic causes as well as environmental
influences. According to the International Classification of Sleep
Disorders, there are over 80 recognized sleep disorders. Of these,
compounds of the present invention are effective, for example, in
any one or more of the following sleep disorders
(ICSD--International Classification of Sleep Disorders: Diagnostic
and Coding Manual. Diagnostic Classification Steering Committee,
American Sleep Disorders Association, 1990):
A. Dyssomnias
[0424] a. Intrinsic Sleep Disorders:
[0425] Psychophysiological insomnia, Sleep state misperception,
Idiopathic insomnia, Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, Central
sleep apnea syndrome, Central alveolar hypoventilation syndrome,
Periodic limb movement disorder, Restless leg syndrome and
Intrinsic sleep disorder NOS.
[0426] b. Extrinsic Sleep Disorders:

[0431] Confusional arousals, Sleepwalking and Sleep terrors.
[0432] b. Sleep-Wake Transition Disorders:
[0433] Rhythmic movement disorder, Sleep starts, Sleep talking and
Nocturnal leg cramps.
C. Sleep Disorders Associated with Medical/Psychiatric
Disorders
[0434] a. Associated with Mental Disorders:
[0435] Psychoses, Mood disorders, Anxiety disorders, Panic
disorders and Alcoholism.
[0436] b. Associated with Neurological Disorders:
[0437] Cerebral degenerative disorders, Dementia, Parkinsonism,
Fatal familial insomnia, Sleep-related epilepsy, Electrical status
epilepticus of sleep and Sleep-related headaches.
[0438] c. Associated with Other Medical Disorders:
[0439] Sleeping sickness, Nocturnal cardiac ischemia, Chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease, Sleep-related asthma, Sleep-related
gastroesophageal reflux, Peptic ulcer disease, Fibrositis syndrome,
Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis, Fibromyalgia and
Post-surgical.
[0440] The effects of sleep deprivation are more than excessive
daytime sleepiness. Chronic insomniacs report elevated levels of
stress, anxiety, depression and medical illnesses (National
Institutes of Health, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute,
Insomnia Facts Sheet, October 1995). Preliminary evidence suggests
that having a sleep disorder that causes significant loss of sleep
may contribute to increased susceptibility to infections due to
immunosuppression, cardiovascular complications such as
hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias, stroke, and myocardial
infarction, compromised glucose tolerance, increased obesity and
metabolic syndrome. Compounds of the present invention are useful
to prevent or alleviate these complications by improving sleep
quality.
[0441] The most common class of medications for the majority of
sleep disorders are the benzodiazepines, but the adverse effect
profile of benzodiazepines include daytime sedation, diminished
motor coordination, and cognitive impairments. Furthermore, the
National Institutes of Health Consensus conference on Sleeping
Pills and Insomnia in 1984 have developed guidelines discouraging
the use of such sedative-hypnotics beyond 4-6 weeks because of
concerns raised over drug misuse, dependency, withdrawal and
rebound insomnia. Therefore, it is desirable to have a
pharmacological agent for the treatment of insomnia, which is more
effective and/or has fewer side effects than those currently used.
In addition, benzodiazepines are used to induce sleep, but have
little to no effect on the maintenance of sleep, sleep
consolidation or slow wave sleep. Therefore, sleep maintenance
disorders are not currently well treated.
[0442] Clinical studies with agents of a similar mechanism of
action as are compounds of the present invention have demonstrated
significant improvements on objective and subjective sleep
parameters in normal, healthy volunteers as well as patients with
sleep disorders and mood disorders [Sharpley A L, et al. Slow Wave
Sleep in Humans: Role of 5-HT.sub.2A and 5HT.sub.2C Receptors.
Neuropharmacology, 1994, Vol. 33(3/4):467-71; Winokur A, et al.
Acute Effects of Mirtazapine on Sleep Continuity and Sleep
Architecture in Depressed Patients: A Pilot Study. Soc of Biol
Psych, 2000, Vol. 48:75-78; and Landolt H P, et al. Serotonin-2
Receptors and Human Sleep: Effect of Selective Antagonist on EEG
Power Spectra. Neuropsychopharmacology, 1999, Vol.
21(3):455-66].
[0443] Some sleep disorders are sometimes found in conjunction with
other conditions and accordingly those conditions are treatable by
compounds of Formula (Ia). For example, but not limited to,
patients suffering from mood disorders typically suffer from a
sleep disorder that can be treatable by compounds of Formula (Ia).
Having one pharmacological agent which treats two or more existing
or potential conditions, as does the present invention, is more
cost effective, leads to better compliance and has fewer side
effects than taking two or more agents.
[0444] It is an object of the present invention to provide a
therapeutic agent for the use in treating Sleep Disorders. It is
another object of the present invention to provide one
pharmaceutical agent, which may be useful in treating two or more
conditions wherein one of the conditions is a sleep disorder.
Compounds of the present invention described herein may be used
alone or in combination with a mild sleep inducer (i.e.
antihistamine).
Sleep Architecture:
[0445] Sleep comprises two physiological states: Non rapid eye
movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. NREM sleep
consists of four stages, each of which is characterized by
progressively slower brain wave patterns, with the slower patterns
indicating deeper sleep. So called delta sleep, stages 3 and 4 of
NREM sleep, is the deepest and most refreshing type of sleep. Many
patients with sleep disorders are unable to adequately achieve the
restorative sleep of stages 3 and 4. In clinical terms, patients'
sleep patterns are described as fragmented, meaning the patient
spends a lot of time alternating between stages 1 and 2
(semi-wakefulness) and being awake and very little time in deep
sleep. As used herein, the term "fragmented sleep architecture"
means an individual, such as a sleep disorder patient, spends the
majority of their sleep time in NREM sleep stages 1 and 2, lighter
periods of sleep from which the individual can be easily aroused to
a Waking state by limited external stimuli. As a result, the
individual cycles through frequent bouts of light sleep interrupted
by frequent awakenings throughout the sleep period. Many sleep
disorders are characterized by a fragmented sleep architecture. For
example, many elderly patients with sleep complaints have
difficulty achieving long bouts of deep refreshing sleep (NREM
stages 3 and 4) and instead spend the majority of their sleep time
in NREM sleep stages 1 and 2.
[0446] In contrast to fragmented sleep architecture, as used herein
the term "sleep consolidation" means a state in which the number of
NREM sleep bouts, particularly Stages 3 and 4, and the length of
those sleep bouts are increased, while the number and length of
waking bouts are decreased. In essence, the architecture of the
sleep disorder patient is consolidated to a sleeping state with
increased periods of sleep and fewer awakenings during the night
and more time is spent in slow wave sleep (Stages 3 and 4) with
fewer oscillation Stage 1 and 2 sleep. Compounds of the present
invention can be effective in consolidating sleep patterns so that
the patient with previously fragmented sleep can now achieve
restorative, delta-wave sleep for longer, more consistent periods
of time.
[0447] As sleep moves from stage 1 into later stages, heart rate
and blood pressure drop, metabolic rate and glucose consumption
fall, and muscles relax. In normal sleep architecture, NREM sleep
makes up about 75% of total sleep time; stage 1 accounting for
5-10% of total sleep time, stage 2 for about 45-50%, stage 3
approximately 12%, and stage 4 13-15%. About 90 minutes after sleep
onset, NREM sleep gives way to the first REM sleep episode of the
night. REM makes up approximately 25% of total sleep time. In
contrast to NREM sleep, REM sleep is characterized by high pulse,
respiration, and blood pressure, as well as other physiological
patterns similar to those seen in the active waking stage. Hence,
REM sleep is also known as "paradoxical sleep." Sleep onset occurs
during NREM sleep and takes 10-20 minutes in healthy young adults.
The four stages of NREM sleep together with a REM phase form one
complete sleep cycle that is repeated throughout the duration of
sleep, usually four or five times. The cyclical nature of sleep is
regular and reliable; a REM period occurs about every 90 minutes
during the night. However, the first REM period tends to be the
shortest, often lasting less than 10 minutes, whereas the later REM
periods may last up to 40 minutes. With aging, the time between
retiring and sleep onset increases and the total amount of
night-time sleep decreases because of changes in sleep architecture
that impair sleep maintenance as well as sleep quality. Both NREM
(particularly stages 3 and 4) and REM sleep are reduced. However,
stage 1 NREM sleep, which is the lightest sleep, increases with
age.
[0448] As used herein, the term "delta power" means a measure of
the duration of EEG activity in the 0.5 to 3.5 Hz range during NREM
sleep and is thought to be a measure of deeper, more refreshing
sleep. Delta power is hypothesized to be a measure of a theoretical
process called Process S and is thought to be inversely related to
the amount of sleep an individual experiences during a given sleep
period. Sleep is controlled by homeostatic mechanisms; therefore,
the less one sleeps the greater the drive to sleep. It is believed
that Process S builds throughout the wake period and is discharged
most efficiently during delta power sleep. Delta power is a measure
of the magnitude of Process S prior to the sleep period. The longer
one stays awake, the greater Process S or drive to sleep and thus
the greater the delta power during NREM sleep. However, individuals
with sleep disorders have difficulty achieving and maintaining
delta wave sleep, and thus have a large build-up of Process S with
limited ability to discharge this buildup during sleep. 5-HT.sub.2A
agonists tested preclinically and clinically mimic the effect of
sleep deprivation on delta power, suggesting that subjects with
sleep disorders treated with a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist or
antagonist will be able to achieve deeper more refreshing sleep.
These same effects have not been observed with currently marketed
pharmacotherapies. In addition, currently marketed
pharmacotherapies for sleep have side effects such as hangover
effects or addiction that are associated with the GABA receptor.
5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonists do not target the GABA receptor and so
these side effects are not a concern.
Subjective and Objective Determinations of Sleep Disorders:
[0449] There are a number of ways to determine whether the onset,
duration or quality of sleep (e.g. non-restorative or restorative
sleep) is impaired or improved. One method is a subjective
determination of the patient, e.g., do they feel drowsy or rested
upon waking. Other methods involve the observation of the patient
by another during sleep, e.g., how long it takes the patient to
fall asleep, how many times does the patient wake up during the
night, how restless is the patient during sleep, etc. Another
method is to objectively measure the stages of sleep using
polysomnography.
[0450] Polysomnography is the monitoring of multiple
electrophysiological parameters during sleep and generally includes
measurement of EEG activity, electroculographic activity and
electromyographic activity, as well as other measurements. These
results, along with observations, can measure not only sleep
latency (the amount of time required to fall asleep), but also
sleep continuity (overall balance of sleep and wakefulness) and
sleep consolidation (percent of sleeping time spent in delta-wave
or restorative sleep) which may be an indication of the quality of
sleep.
[0451] There are five distinct sleep stages, which can be measured
by polysomnography: rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and four stages
of non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep (stages 1, 2, 3 and 4).
Stage 1 NREM sleep is a transition from wakefulness to sleep and
occupies about 5% of time spent asleep in healthy adults. Stage 2
NREM sleep, which is characterized by specific EEG waveforms (sleep
spindles and K complexes), occupies about 50% of time spent asleep.
Stages 3 and 4 NREM sleep (also known collectively as slow-wave
sleep and delta-wave sleep) are the deepest levels of sleep and
occupy about 10-20% of sleep time. REM sleep, during which the
majority of vivid dreams occur, occupies about 20-25% of total
sleep.
[0452] These sleep stages have a characteristic temporal
organization across the night. NREM stages 3 and 4 tend to occur in
the first one-third to one-half of the night and increase in
duration in response to sleep deprivation. REM sleep occurs
cyclically through the night. Alternating with NREM sleep about
every 80-100 minutes. REM sleep periods increase in duration toward
the morning. Human sleep also varies characteristically across the
life span. After relative stability with large amounts of slow-wave
sleep in childhood and early adolescence, sleep continuity and
depth deteriorate across the adult age range. This deterioration is
reflected by increased wakefulness and stage 1 sleep and decreased
stages 3 and 4 sleep.
[0453] In addition, the compounds of the invention can be useful
for the treatment of the sleep disorders characterized by excessive
daytime sleepiness such as narcolepsy. Inverse agonists at the
serotonin 5-HT.sub.2A receptor improve the quality of sleep at
nighttime which can decrease excessive daytime sleepiness.
[0454] Accordingly, another aspect of the present invention relates
to the therapeutic use of compounds of the present invention for
the treatment of Sleep Disorders. Compounds of the present
invention are potent inverse agonists at the serotonin 5-HT.sub.2A
receptor and can be effective in the treatment of Sleep Disorders
by promoting one or more of the following: reducing the sleep onset
latency period (measure of sleep induction), reducing the number of
nighttime awakenings, and prolonging the amount of time in
delta-wave sleep (measure of sleep quality enhancement and sleep
consolidation) without effecting REM sleep. In addition, compounds
of the present invention can be effective either as a monotherapy
or in combination with sleep inducing agents, for example but not
limited to, antihistamines.
[0455] 6. Diabetic-Related Pathologies:
[0456] Although hyperglycemia is the major cause for the
pathogenesis of diabetic complications such as diabetic peripheral
neuropathy (DPN), diabetic nephropathy (DN) and diabetic
retinopathy (DR), increased plasma serotonin concentration in
diabetic patients has also been implicated to play a role in
disease progression (Pietraszek, M. H., et al. Thrombosis Res.
1992, 66(6), 765-74; and Andrzejewska-Buczko J, et al., Klin Oczna.
1996; 98(2), 101-4). Serotonin is believed to play a role in
vasospasm and increased platelet aggregability. Improving
microvascular blood flow is able to benefit diabetic
complications.
[0457] A recent study by Cameron and Cotter in Naunyn Schmiedebergs
Arch Pharmacol. 2003 June; 367(6):607-14, used a 5-HT.sub.2A
antagonist experimental drug AT-1015, and other non-specific
5-HT.sub.2A antagonists including ritanserin and sarpogrelate.
These studies found that all three drugs were able to produce a
marked correction (82.6-99.7%) of a 19.8% sciatic motor conduction
deficit in diabetic rats. Similarly, 44.7% and 14.9% reductions in
sciatic endoneurial blood flow and saphenous sensory conduction
velocity were completely reversed.
[0458] In a separate patient study, sarogrelate was evaluated for
the prevention of the development or progression of diabetic
nephropathy (Takahashi, T., et al., Diabetes Res Clin Pract. 2002
November; 58(2):123-9). In the trial of 24 months of treatment,
sarpogrelate significantly reduced urinary albumin excretion
level.
[0459] 7. Glaucoma
[0460] Topical ocular administration of 5-HT2 receptor antagonists
result in a decrease in intra ocular pressure (IOP) in monkeys
(Chang et al., J. Ocul Pharmacol 1:137-147 (1985)) and humans
(Mastropasqua et al., Acta Ophthalmol Scand Suppl 224:24-25 (1997))
indicating utility for similar compounds such as 5-HT.sub.2A
inverse agonists in the treatment of ocular hypertension associated
with glaucoma. The 5-HT2 receptor antagonist ketanserin
(Mastropasqua supra) and sarpogrelate (Takenaka et al., Investig
Ophthalmol Vis Sci 36:S734 (1995)) have been shown to significantly
lower IOP in glaucoma patients.
[0461] 8. Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy
[0462] Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a lethal
demyelinating disease caused by an opportunistic viral infection of
oligodendrocytes in immunocompromised patients. The causative agent
is JC virus, a ubiquitous papovavirus that infects the majority of
the population before adulthood and establishes a latent infection
in the kidney. In immunocompromised hosts, the virus can reactivate
and productively infect oligodendrocytes. This previously rare
condition, until 1984 reported primarily in persons with underlying
lymphoproliferative disorders, is now more common because it occurs
in 4% of patients with AIDS. Patients usually present with
relentlessly progressive focal neurologic defects, such as
hemiparesis or visual field deficits, or with alterations in mental
status. On brain MRI, one or more white matter lesions are present;
they are hyperintense on T2-weighted images and hypointense on
T1-weighted images. There is no mass effect, and contrast
enhancement is rare. Diagnosis can be confirmed by brain biopsy,
with demonstration of virus by in situ hybridization or
immunocytochemistry. Polymerase chain reaction amplification of JC
virus sequences from the CSF can confirm diagnosis without the need
for biopsy [see, e.g., Antinori et al., Neurology (1997)
48:687-694; Berger and Major, Seminars in Neurology (1999)
19:193-200; and Portegies, et al., Eur. J. Neurol. (2004)
11:297-304]. Currently, there is no effective therapy. Survival
after diagnosis is about 3 to 5 months in AIDS patients.
[0463] JC virus enters cells by receptor-mediated
clathrin-dependent endocytosis. Binding of JC virus to human glial
cells (e.g., oligodendrocytes) induces an intracellular signal that
is critical for entry and infection by a ligand-inducible
clathrin-dependent mechanism [Querbes et al., J Virology(2004)
78:250-256]. Recently, 5-HT.sub.2A was shown to be the receptor on
human glial cells mediating infectious entry of JC virus by
clathrin-dependent endocytosis [Elphick et al., Science(2004)
306:1380-1383]. 5-HT.sub.2A antagonists, including ketanserin and
ritanserin, inhibited JC virus infection of human glial cells.
Ketanserin and ritanserin have inverse agonist activity at
5-HT.sub.2A.
[0464] 5-HT.sub.2A antagonists including inverse agonists have been
contemplated to be useful in the treatment of PML [Elphick et al.,
Science (2004) 306:1380-1383]. Prophylactic treatment of
HIV-infected patients with 5-HT.sub.2A antagonists is envisioned to
prevent the spread of JC virus to the central nervous system and
the development of PML. Aggressive therapeutic treatment of
patients with PML is envisioned to reduce viral spread within the
central nervous system and prevent additional episodes of
demyelination.
[0465] In some embodiments, methods are provided for treating
progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in a patient in need of
such treatment, comprising administering to the patient a
composition comprising a 5-HT.sub.2A inverse agonist disclosed
herein.
[0466] 9. Hypertension
[0467] Serotonin has been observed to play an important role in the
regulation of vascular tone, vasoconstriction, and pulmonary
hypertension (see, Deuchar, G. et al. Pulm. Pharmacol. Ther.
18(1):23-31. 2005; and Marcos, E. et al. Circ. Res. 94(9):1263-70
2004). Ketanserin, a 5-HT2A inverse agonist, have been demonstrated
to protect against circulatory shocks, intracranial hypertension,
and cerebral ischemia during heatstroke (see, Chang, C. et al.
Shock 24(4): 336-340 2005); and to stabilize blood pressure in
spontaneously hypertensive rats (see, Miao, C. Clin. Exp.
Pharmacol. Physiol. 30(3): 189-193). Mainserin, a 5-HT2A inverse
agonist, has been shown to prevent DOCA-salt induced hypertension
in rats (see, Silva, A. Eur, J. Pharmacol. 518(2-3): 152-7
2005).
[0468] 10. Pain
[0469] 5-HT2A inverse agonists are also effective for the treatment
of pain. Sarpogrelate has been observed to provide a significant
analgesic effect both on thermal induced pain in rats after
intraperitoneal administration and on inflammatory pain in rats
after either intrathecal or intraperitoneal administration (see,
Nishiyama, T. Eur. J. Pharmacol. 516:18-22 2005). This same 5-HT2A
inverse agonist in humans has been shown to be an effective
treatment for lower back pain, leg pain and numbness associated
with sciatica brought on by lumbar disc herniation (see, Kanayama,
M. et al. J. Neurosurg: Spine 2:441-446 2005).

Pharmaceutical Compositions
[0525] A further aspect of the present invention pertains to
pharmaceutical compositions comprising one or more compounds as
described herein and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable
carriers. Some embodiments pertain to pharmaceutical compositions
comprising a compound of the present invention and a
pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
[0526] Some embodiments of the present invention include a method
of producing a pharmaceutical composition comprising admixing at
least one compound according to any of the compound embodiments
disclosed herein and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
[0527] Formulations may be prepared by any suitable method,
typically by uniformly mixing the active compound(s) with liquids
or finely divided solid carriers, or both, in the required
proportions, and then, if necessary, forming the resulting mixture
into a desired shape.
[0528] Conventional excipients, such as binding agents, fillers,
acceptable wetting agents, tabletting lubricants, and disintegrants
may be used in tablets and capsules for oral administration. Liquid
preparations for oral administration may be in the form of
solutions, emulsions, aqueous or oily suspensions, and syrups.
Alternatively, the oral preparations may be in the form of dry
powder that can be reconstituted with water or another suitable
liquid vehicle before use. Additional additives such as suspending
or emulsifying agents, non-aqueous vehicles (including edible
oils), preservatives, and flavorings and colorants may be added to
the liquid preparations. Parenteral dosage forms may be prepared by
dissolving the compound of the invention in a suitable liquid
vehicle and filter sterilizing the solution before filling and
sealing an appropriate vial or ampoule. These are just a few
examples of the many appropriate methods well known in the art for
preparing dosage forms.
[0529] A compound of the present invention can be formulated into
pharmaceutical compositions using techniques well known to those in
the art. Suitable pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers, outside
those mentioned herein, are known in the art; for example, see
Remington, The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 20th Edition,
2000, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, (Editors: Gennaro, A. R.,
et al.).
[0530] While it is possible that, for use in the treatment, a
compound of the invention may, in an alternative use, be
administered as a raw or pure chemical, it is preferable however to
present the compound or active ingredient as a pharmaceutical
formulation or composition further comprising a pharmaceutically
acceptable carrier.
[0531] The invention thus further provides pharmaceutical
formulations comprising a compound of the invention or a
pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof together
with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers thereof
and/or prophylactic ingredients. The carrier(s) must be
"acceptable" in the sense of being compatible with the other
ingredients of the formulation and not overly deleterious to the
recipient thereof.
[0532] Pharmaceutical formulations include those suitable for oral,
rectal, nasal, topical (including buccal and sub-lingual), vaginal
or parenteral (including intramuscular, sub-cutaneous and
intravenous) administration or in a form suitable for
administration by inhalation, insufflation or by a transdermal
patch. Transdermal patches dispense a drug at a controlled rate by
presenting the drug for absorption in an efficient manner with a
minimum of degradation of the drug. Typically, transdermal patches
comprise an impermeable backing layer, a single pressure sensitive
adhesive and a removable protective layer with a release liner. One
of ordinary skill in the art will understand and appreciate the
techniques appropriate for manufacturing a desired efficacious
transdermal patch based upon the needs of the artisan.
[0533] The compounds of the invention, together with a conventional
adjuvant, carrier, or diluent, may thus be placed into the form of
pharmaceutical formulations and unit dosages thereof, and in such
form may be employed as solids, such as tablets or filled capsules,
or liquids such as solutions, suspensions, emulsions, elixirs, gels
or capsules filled with the same, all for oral use, in the form of
suppositories for rectal administration; or in the form of sterile
injectable solutions for parenteral (including subcutaneous) use.
Such pharmaceutical compositions and unit dosage forms thereof may
comprise conventional ingredients in conventional proportions, with
or without additional active compounds or principles, and such unit
dosage forms may contain any suitable effective amount of the
active ingredient commensurate with the intended daily dosage range
to be employed.
[0534] For oral administration, the pharmaceutical composition may
be in the form of, for example, a tablet, capsule, suspension or
liquid. The pharmaceutical composition is preferably made in the
form of a dosage unit containing a particular amount of the active
ingredient. Examples of such dosage units are capsules, tablets,
powders, granules or a suspension, with conventional additives such
as lactose, mannitol, corn starch or potato starch; with binders
such as crystalline cellulose, cellulose derivatives, acacia, corn
starch or gelatins; with disintegrators such as corn starch, potato
starch or sodium carboxymethyl-cellulose; and with lubricants such
as talc or magnesium stearate. The active ingredient may also be
administered by injection as a composition wherein, for example,
saline, dextrose or water may be used as a suitable
pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
[0535] Compounds of the present invention or a solvate or
physiologically functional derivative thereof can be used as active
ingredients in pharmaceutical compositions, specifically as
5-HT.sub.2A receptor modulators. By the term "active ingredient" is
defined in the context of a "pharmaceutical composition" and shall
mean a component of a pharmaceutical composition that provides the
primary pharmacological effect, as opposed to an "inactive
ingredient" which would generally be recognized as providing no
pharmaceutical benefit.
[0536] The dose when using the compounds of the present invention
can vary within wide limits, as is customary and is known to the
physician, it is to be tailored to the individual conditions in
each individual case. It depends, for example, on the nature and
severity of the illness to be treated, on the condition of the
patient, on the compound employed or on whether an acute or chronic
disease state is treated or prophylaxis is conducted or on whether
further active compounds are administered in addition to the
compounds of the present invention. Representative doses of the
present invention include, but are not limited to, about 0.001 mg
to about 5000 mg, about 0.001 mg to about 2500 mg, about 0.001 mg
to about 1000 mg, 0.001 mg to about 500 mg, 0.001 mg to about 250
mg, about 0.001 mg to 100 mg, about 0.001 mg to about 50 mg, and
about 0.001 mg to about 25 mg. Multiple doses may be administered
during the day, especially when relatively large amounts are deemed
to be needed, for example 2, 3 or 4, doses. Depending on the
individual and as deemed appropriate from the patient's physician
or caregiver it may be necessary to deviate upward or downward from
the doses described herein.
[0537] The amount of active ingredient, or an active salt or
derivative thereof, required for use in treatment will vary not
only with the particular salt selected but also with the route of
administration, the nature of the condition being treated and the
age and condition of the patient and will ultimately be at the
discretion of the attendant physician or clinician. In general, one
skilled in the art understands how to extrapolate in vivo data
obtained in a model system, typically an animal model, to another,
such as a human. In some circumstances, these extrapolations may
merely be based on the weight of the animal model in comparison to
another, such as a mammal, preferably a human, however, more often,
these extrapolations are not simply based on weights, but rather
incorporate a variety of factors. Representative factors include
the type, age, weight, sex, diet and medical condition of the
patient, the severity of the disease, the route of administration,
pharmacological considerations such as the activity, efficacy,
pharmacokinetic and toxicology profiles of the particular compound
employed, whether a drug delivery system is utilized, or whether an
acute or chronic disease state is being treated or prophylaxis is
conducted or on whether further active compounds are administered
in addition to the compounds of the present invention and as part
of a drug combination. The dosage regimen for treating a disease
condition with the compounds and/or compositions of this invention
is selected in accordance with a variety factors as cited above.
Thus, the actual dosage regimen employed may vary widely and
therefore may deviate from a preferred dosage regimen and one
skilled in the art will recognize that dosage and dosage regimen
outside these typical ranges can be tested and, where appropriate,
may be used in the methods of this invention.
[0538] The desired dose may conveniently be presented in a single
dose or as divided doses administered at appropriate intervals, for
example, as two, three, four or more sub-doses per day. The
sub-dose itself may be further divided, e.g., into a number of
discrete loosely spaced administrations. The daily dose can be
divided, especially when relatively large amounts are administered
as deemed appropriate, into several, for example 2, 3 or 4, part
administrations. If appropriate, depending on individual behavior,
it may be necessary to deviate upward or downward from the daily
dose indicated.
[0539] The compounds of the present invention can be administrated
in a wide variety of oral and parenteral dosage forms. It will be
obvious to those skilled in the art that the following dosage forms
may comprise, as the active component, either a compound of the
invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound of
the invention.
[0540] For preparing pharmaceutical compositions from the compounds
of the present invention, the selection of a suitable
pharmaceutically acceptable carrier can be either solid, liquid or
a mixture of both. Solid form preparations include powders,
tablets, pills, capsules, cachets, suppositories, and dispersible
granules. A solid carrier can be one or more substances which may
also act as diluents, flavouring agents, solubilizers, lubricants,
suspending agents, binders, preservatives, tablet disintegrating
agents, or an encapsulating material.
[0541] In powders, the carrier is a finely divided solid which is
in a mixture with the finely divided active component.
[0542] In tablets, the active component is mixed with the carrier
having the necessary binding capacity in suitable proportions and
compacted to the desire shape and size.
[0543] The powders and tablets may contain varying percentage
amounts of the active compound. A representative amount in a powder
or tablet may contain from 0.5 to about 90 percent of the active
compound; however, an artisan would know when amounts outside of
this range are necessary. Suitable carriers for powders and tablets
are magnesium carbonate, magnesium stearate, talc, sugar, lactose,
pectin, dextrin, starch, gelatin, tragacanth, methylcellulose,
sodium carboxymethylcellulose, a low melting wax, cocoa butter, and
the like. The term "preparation" is intended to include the
formulation of the active compound with encapsulating material as
carrier providing a capsule in which the active component, with or
without carriers, is surrounded by a carrier, which is thus in
association with it. Similarly, cachets and lozenges are included.
Tablets, powders, capsules, pills, cachets, and lozenges can be
used as solid forms suitable for oral administration.
[0544] For preparing suppositories, a low melting wax, such as an
admixture of fatty acid glycerides or cocoa butter, is first melted
and the active component is dispersed homogeneously therein, as by
stirring. The molten homogenous mixture is then poured into
convenient sized molds, allowed to cool, and thereby to
solidify.
[0545] Formulations suitable for vaginal administration may be
presented as pessaries, tampons, creams, gels, pastes, foams or
sprays containing in addition to the active ingredient such
carriers as are known in the art to be appropriate.
[0546] Liquid form preparations include solutions, suspensions, and
emulsions, for example, water or water-propylene glycol solutions.
For example, parenteral injection liquid preparations can be
formulated as solutions in aqueous polyethylene glycol solution.
Injectable preparations, for example, sterile injectable aqueous or
oleaginous suspensions may be formulated according to the known art
using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents.
The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable
solution or suspension in a nontoxic parenterally acceptable
diluent or solvent, for example, as a solution in 1,3-butanediol.
Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are
water, Ringer's solution, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In
addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a
solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose any bland fixed oil
may be employed including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In
addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid find use in the
preparation of injectables.
[0547] The compounds according to the present invention may thus be
formulated for parenteral administration (e.g. by injection, for
example bolus injection or continuous infusion) and may be
presented in unit dose form in ampoules, pre-filled syringes, small
volume infusion or in multi-dose containers with an added
preservative. The pharmaceutical compositions may take such forms
as suspensions, solutions, or emulsions in oily or aqueous
vehicles, and may contain formulatory agents such as suspending,
stabilizing and/or dispersing agents. Alternatively, the active
ingredient may be in powder form, obtained by aseptic isolation of
sterile solid or by lyophilization from solution, for constitution
with a suitable vehicle, e.g. sterile, pyrogen-free water, before
use.
[0548] Aqueous formulations suitable for oral use can be prepared
by dissolving or suspending the active component in water and
adding suitable colorants, flavours, stabilizing and thickening
agents, as desired.
[0549] Aqueous suspensions suitable for oral use can be made by
dispersing the finely divided active component in water with
viscous material, such as natural or synthetic gums, resins,
methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, or other well known
suspending agents.
[0550] Also included are solid form preparations which are intended
to be converted, shortly before use, to liquid form preparations
for oral administration. Such liquid forms include solutions,
suspensions, and emulsions. These preparations may contain, in
addition to the active component, colorants, flavors, stabilizers,
buffers, artificial and natural sweeteners, dispersants,
thickeners, solubilizing agents, and the like.
[0551] For topical administration to the epidermis the compounds
according to the invention may be formulated as ointments, creams
or lotions, or as a transdermal patch.
[0552] Ointments and creams may, for example, be formulated with an
aqueous or oily base with the addition of suitable thickening
and/or gelling agents. Lotions may be formulated with an aqueous or
oily base and will in general also contain one or more emulsifying
agents, stabilizing agents, dispersing agents, suspending agents,
thickening agents, or coloring agents.
[0553] Formulations suitable for topical administration in the
mouth include lozenges comprising active agent in a flavored base,
usually sucrose and acacia or tragacanth; pastilles comprising the
active ingredient in an inert base such as gelatin and glycerin or
sucrose and acacia; and mouthwashes comprising the active
ingredient in a suitable liquid carrier.
[0554] Solutions or suspensions are applied directly to the nasal
cavity by conventional means, for example with a dropper, pipette
or spray. The formulations may be provided in single or multi-dose
form. In the latter case of a dropper or pipette, this may be
achieved by the patient administering an appropriate, predetermined
volume of the solution or suspension. In the case of a spray, this
may be achieved for example by means of a metering atomizing spray
pump.
[0555] Administration to the respiratory tract may also be achieved
by means of an aerosol formulation in which the active ingredient
is provided in a pressurized pack with a suitable propellant. If
the compounds of the present invention or pharmaceutical
compositions comprising them are administered as aerosols, for
example as nasal aerosols or by inhalation, this can be carried
out, for example, using a spray, a nebulizer, a pump nebulizer, an
inhalation apparatus, a metered inhaler or a dry powder inhaler.
Pharmaceutical forms for administration of the compounds of the
present invention as an aerosol can be prepared by processes
well-known to the person skilled in the art. For their preparation,
for example, solutions or dispersions of the compounds of the
present invention in water, water/alcohol mixtures or suitable
saline solutions can be employed using customary additives, for
example benzyl alcohol or other suitable preservatives, absorption
enhancers for increasing the bioavailability, solubilizers,
dispersants and others, and, if appropriate, customary propellants,
for example include carbon dioxide, CFC's, such as,
dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane, or
dichlorotetrafluoroethane; and the like. The aerosol may
conveniently also contain a surfactant such as lecithin. The dose
of drug may be controlled by provision of a metered valve.
[0556] In formulations intended for administration to the
respiratory tract, including intranasal formulations, the compound
will generally have a small particle size for example of the order
of 10 microns or less. Such a particle size may be obtained by
means known in the art, for example by micronization. When desired,
formulations adapted to give sustained release of the active
ingredient may be employed.
[0557] Alternatively the active ingredients may be provided in the
form of a dry powder, for example, a powder mix of the compound in
a suitable powder base such as lactose, starch, starch derivatives
such as hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose and polyvinylpyrrolidone
(PVP). Conveniently the powder carrier will form a gel in the nasal
cavity. The powder composition may be presented in unit dose form
for example in capsules or cartridges of, e.g., gelatin, or blister
packs from which the powder may be administered by means of an
inhaler.
[0558] The pharmaceutical preparations are preferably in unit
dosage forms. In such form, the preparation is subdivided into unit
doses containing appropriate quantities of the active component.
The unit dosage form can be a packaged preparation, the package
containing discrete quantities of preparation, such as packeted
tablets, capsules, and powders in vials or ampoules. Also, the unit
dosage form can be a capsule, tablet, cachet, or lozenge itself, or
it can be the appropriate number of any of these in packaged
form.
[0559] Tablets or capsules for oral administration and liquids for
intravenous administration are preferred compositions.
[0560] The compounds according to the invention may optionally
exist as pharmaceutically acceptable salts including
pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts prepared from
pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic acids including inorganic and
organic acids. Representative acids include, but are not limited
to, acetic, benzenesulfonic, benzoic, camphorsulfonic, citric,
ethenesulfonic, dichloroacetic, formic, fumaric, gluconic,
glutamic, hippuric, hydrobromic, hydrochloric, isethionic, lactic,
maleic, malic, mandelic, methanesulfonic, mucic, nitric, oxalic,
pamoic, pantothenic, phosphoric, succinic, sulfuric, tartaric,
oxalic, p-toluenesulfonic and the like, such as those
pharmaceutically acceptable salts listed in Journal of
Pharmaceutical Science, 66, 2 (1977); incorporated herein by
reference in its entirety.
[0561] The acid addition salts may be obtained as the direct
products of compound synthesis. In the alternative, the free base
may be dissolved in a suitable solvent containing the appropriate
acid, and the salt isolated by evaporating the solvent or otherwise
separating the salt and solvent. The compounds of this invention
may form solvates with standard low molecular weight solvents using
methods known to the skilled artisan.
[0562] Compounds of the present invention can be converted to
"pro-drugs." The term "pro-drugs" refers to compounds that have
been modified with specific chemical groups known in the art and
when administered into an individual these groups undergo
biotransformation to give the parent compound. Pro-drugs can thus
be viewed as compounds of the invention containing one or more
specialized non-toxic protective groups used in a transient manner
to alter or to eliminate a property of the compound. In one general
aspect, the "pro-drug" approach is utilized to facilitate oral
absorption. A thorough discussion is provided in T. Higuchi and V.
Stella, "Pro-drugs as Novel Delivery Systems," Vol. 14 of the
A.C.S. Symposium Series; and in Bioreversible Carriers in Drug
Design, ed. Edward B. Roche, American Pharmaceutical Association
and Pergamon Press, 1987, both of which are hereby incorporated by
reference in their entirety.
[0563] Some embodiments of the present invention include a method
of producing a pharmaceutical composition for "combination-therapy"
comprising admixing at least one compound according to any of the
compound embodiments disclosed herein, together with at least one
known pharmaceutical agent as described herein and a
pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
[0564] It is noted that when the 5-HT.sub.2A receptor modulators
are utilized as active ingredients in a pharmaceutical composition,
these are not intended for use only in humans, but in other
non-human mammals as well. Indeed, recent advances in the area of
animal health-care mandate that consideration be given for the use
of active agents, such as 5-HT.sub.2A receptor modulators, for the
treatment of a 5-HT.sub.2A mediated disease or disorder in domestic
animals (e.g., cats and dogs) and in other domestic animals (e.g.,
such as cows, chickens, fish, etc.). Those of ordinary skill in the
art are readily credited with understanding the utility of such
compounds in such settings.
Combination Therapy:
[0565] While the compounds of the present invention can be
administered as the sole active pharmaceutical agent (i.e.,
mono-therapy), they can also be used in combination with other
pharmaceutical agents (i.e., combination-therapy) for the treatment
of the diseases/conditions/disorders described herein. Accordingly,
another aspect of the present invention includes methods of
treatment of 5-HT.sub.2A serotonin receptor mediated disorders
diseases comprising administering to an individual in need of such
treatment a therapeutically-effective amount of a compound of the
present invention in combination with one or more additional
pharmaceutical agent as described herein.

three or four drugs, this treatment is called HAART [see, e.g.,
Portegies, et al., Eur. J. Neurol. (2004) 11:297-304].
[0573] In accordance with the present invention, the combination of

prepared by mixing the respective active components either all
together or independently with a pharmaceutically acceptable
carrier, excipient, binder, diluent, etc. as described herein, and
administering the mixture or mixtures either orally or non-orally
as a pharmaceutical composition(s). When a compound or a mixture of
compounds of Formula (Ia) are administered as a combination therapy
with another active compound each can be formulated as separate
pharmaceutical compositions given at the same time or at different
times. Alternatively, in some embodiments, pharmaceutical
compositions of the present invention comprise a compound or a
mixture of compounds of Formula (Ia) and the pharmaceutical
agent(s) as a single pharmaceutical composition.
Other Utilities
[0574] Another object of the present invention relates to
radio-labeled compounds of the present invention that would be
useful not only in radio-imaging but also in assays, both in vitro
and in vivo, for localizing and quantitating the 5-HT.sub.2A
receptor in tissue samples, including human, and for identifying
5-HT.sub.2A receptor ligands by inhibition binding of a
radio-labeled compound. It is a further object of this invention to
develop novel 5-HT.sub.2A receptor assays of which comprise such
radio-labeled compounds.
[0575] The present invention embraces isotopically-labeled
compounds of the present invention. An "isotopically" or
"radio-labeled" compounds are those which are identical to
compounds disclosed herein, but for the fact that one or more atoms
are replaced or substituted by an atom having an atomic mass or
mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number typically
found in nature (i.e., naturally occurring). Suitable radionuclides
that may be incorporated in compounds of the present invention
include, but are not limited to, .sup.2H (also written as D for
deuterium), .sup.3H (also written as T for tritium), .sup.11C,
.sup.13C, .sup.14C, .sup.13N, .sup.15N, .sup.15O, .sup.17O,
.sup.18O, .sup.18F, .sup.35S, .sup.36Cl, .sup.82Br, .sup.75Br,
.sup.76Br, .sup.77Br, .sup.123I, .sup.124I, .sup.125I and
.sup.131I. The radionuclide that is incorporated in the instant
radio-labeled compounds will depend on the specific application of
that radio-labeled compound. For example, for in vitro 5-HT.sub.2A
receptor labeling and competition assays, compounds that
incorporate .sup.3H, .sup.14C, .sup.82Br, .sup.125I, .sup.131I,
.sup.35S or will generally be most useful. For radio-imaging
applications .sup.11C, .sup.18F, .sup.125I, .sup.123I, .sup.124I,
.sup.131I, .sup.75Br, .sup.76Br or .sup.77Br will generally be most
useful.
[0576] It is understood that a "radio-labeled" or "labeled
compound" is a compound of Formula (Ia) that has incorporated at
least one radionuclide; in some embodiments the radionuclide is
selected from the group consisting of .sup.3H, .sup.14C, .sup.125I,
.sup.35S and .sup.82Br.
Certain isotopically-labeled compounds of the present invention are
useful in compound and/or substrate tissue distribution assays. In
some embodiments the radionuclide .sup.3H and/or .sup.14C isotopes
are useful in these studies. Further, substitution with heavier
isotopes such as deuterium (i.e., .sup.2H) may afford certain
therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability
(e.g., increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements)
and hence may be preferred in some circumstances. Isotopically
labeled compounds of the present invention can generally be
prepared by following procedures analogous to those disclosed in
the Schemes supra and Examples infra, by substituting an
isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled
reagent. Other synthetic methods that are useful are discussed
infra. Moreover, it should be understood that all of the atoms
represented in the compounds of the invention can be either the
most commonly occurring isotope of such atoms or the more scarce
radio-isotope or nonradioactive isotope.
[0577] Synthetic methods for incorporating radio-isotopes into
organic compounds are applicable to compounds of the invention and
are well known in the art. These synthetic methods, for example,
incorporating activity levels of tritium into target molecules, are
as follows:
[0578] A. Catalytic Reduction with Tritium Gas--This procedure
normally yields high specific activity products and requires
halogenated or unsaturated precursors.
[0579] B. Reduction with Sodium Borohydride [.sup.3H]--This
procedure is rather inexpensive and requires precursors containing
reducible functional groups such as aldehydes, ketones, lactones,
esters, and the like.
[0580] C. Reduction with Lithium Aluminum Hydride [.sup.3H]--This
procedure offers products at almost theoretical specific
activities. It also requires precursors containing reducible
functional groups such as aldehydes, ketones, lactones, esters, and
the like.
[0581] D. Tritium Gas Exposure Labeling--This procedure involves
exposing precursors containing exchangeable protons to tritium gas
in the presence of a suitable catalyst.
[0582] E. N-Methylation using Methyl Iodide [.sup.3H]--This
procedure is usually employed to prepare O-methyl or N-methyl
(.sup.3H) products by treating appropriate precursors with high
specific activity methyl iodide (.sup.3H). This method in general
allows for higher specific activity, such as for example, about
70-90 Ci/mmol.
[0583] Synthetic methods for incorporating activity levels of
.sup.125I into target molecules include:
[0584] A. Sandmeyer and like reactions--This procedure transforms
an aryl or heteroaryl amine into a diazonium salt, such as a
tetrafluoroborate salt, and subsequently to .sup.125I labeled
compound using Na.sup.125I. A represented procedure was reported by
Zhu, D.-G. and co-workers in J. Org. Chem. 2002, 67, 943-948.
[0585] B. Ortho .sup.125Iodination of phenols--This procedure
allows for the incorporation of .sup.125I at the ortho position of
a phenol as reported by Collier, T. L. and co-workers in J. Labeled
Compd Radiopharm. 1999, 42, S264-S266.
[0586] C. Aryl and heteroaryl bromide exchange with .sup.125I--This
method is generally a two step process. The first step is the
conversion of the aryl or heteroaryl bromide to the corresponding
tri-alkyltin intermediate using for example, a Pd catalyzed
reaction [i.e. Pd(Ph.sub.3P)4] or through an aryl or heteroaryl
lithium, in the presence of a tri-alkyltinhalide or hexaalkylditin
[e.g., (CH.sub.3).sub.3SnSn(CH.sub.3).sub.3]. A represented
procedure was reported by Bas, M.-D. and co-workers in J. Labeled
Compd Radiopharm. 2001, 44, S280-S282.
[0587] A radio-labeled 5-HT.sub.2A receptor compound of Formula
(Ia) can be used in a screening assay to identify/evaluate
compounds. In general terms, a newly synthesized or identified
compound (i.e., test compound) can be evaluated for its ability to
reduce binding of the "radio-labeled compound of Formula (Ia)" to
the 5-HT.sub.2A receptor. Accordingly, the ability of a test
compound to compete with the "radio-labeled compound of Formula
(Ia)" for the binding to the 5-HT.sub.2A receptor directly
correlates to its binding affinity.
[0588] The labeled compounds of the present invention bind to the
5-HT.sub.2A receptor. In one embodiment the labeled compound has an
IC.sub.50 less than about 500 .mu.M, in another embodiment the
labeled compound has an IC.sub.50 less than about 100 .mu.M, in yet
another embodiment the labeled compound has an IC.sub.50 less than
about 10 .mu.M, in yet another embodiment the labeled compound has
an IC.sub.50 less than about 1 .mu.M, and in still yet another
embodiment the labeled inhibitor has an IC.sub.50 less than about
0.1 .mu.M.

Receptor Expression
[0806] A. pCMV
[0807] Although a variety of expression vectors are available to
those in the art, it is preferred that the vector utilized be pCMV.
This vector was deposited with the American Type Culture Collection
(ATCC) on Oct. 13, 1998 (10801 University Blvd., Manassas, Va.
20110-2209 USA) under the provisions of the Budapest Treaty for the
International Recognition of the Deposit of Microorganisms for the
Purpose of Patent Procedure. The DNA was tested by the ATCC and
determined to be viable. The ATCC has assigned the following
deposit number to pCMV: ATCC #203351.
[0808] B. Transfection Procedure
[0809] For the IP accumulation assay (Example 3), HEK293 cells were
transfected while for the DOI binding assay (Example 4) COS7 cells
were transfected. Several protocols well known in the art can be
used to transfect cells. The following protocol is representative
of the transfection procedures used herein for COS7 or 293
cells.
[0810] On day one, COS-7 cells were plated onto 24 well plates,
usually 1.times.10.sup.5 cells/well or 2.times.10.sup.5 cells/well,
respectively. On day two, the cells were transfected by first
mixing 0.25 ug cDNA in 50 .mu.l serum-free DMEM/well and then 2
.mu.l lipofectamine in 50 .mu.l serum-free DMEM/well. The solutions
("transfection media") were gently mixed and incubated for 15-30
minutes at room temperature. The cells were washed with 0.5 mL PBS
and then 400 .mu.l of serum free media was mixed with the
transfection media and added to the cells. The cells were then
incubated for 3-4 hours at 37.degree. C./5% CO.sub.2. Then the
transfection media was removed and replaced with 1 mL/well of
regular growth media.
[0811] For 293 cells, on day one, 13.times.10.sup.6 293 cells per
150 mm plate were plated out. On day two, 2 mL of serum OptimemI
(Invitrogen Corporation) was added per plate followed by addition
of 60 .mu.L of lipofectamine and 16 .mu.g of cDNA. Note that
lipofectamine must be added to the OptimemI and mixed well before
addition of cDNA. While complexes between lipofectamine and the
cDNA are forming, media was carefully aspirated and cells were
gently rinsed with 5 mL of OptimemI media followed by careful
aspiration. Then 12 mL of OptimemI was added to each plate and 2 mL
of transfection solution was added followed by a 5 hour incubation
at 37.degree. C. in a 5% CO.sub.2 incubator. Plates were then
carefully aspirated and 25 mL of Complete Media were added to each
plate and cells were then incubated until used.

Inositol Phosphate (IP) Accumulation Assays
[0812] A. 5-HT.sub.2A Receptor Compounds of the invention were
tested for their ability to activate a 5-HT.sub.2A receptor clone
using an IP accumulation assay. Briefly, HEK293 cells were
transiently transfected with a pCMV expression vector containing a
human 5-HT.sub.2A receptor (for the sequence of the receptor see
U.S. Pat. No. 6,541,209, SEQ ID NO:24) as described in Example 2.
An IP accumulation assay was performed as described below. Certain
compounds of the invention had activity values ranging from about
75 .mu.M to about 0.6 nM in this assay.
[0813] B. Constitutively Active 5-HT.sub.2A Receptor Compounds of
the invention were tested for their ability to inhibit a
constitutively active 5-HT.sub.2A receptor clone using an IP
accumulation assay. Briefly, 293 cells were transiently transfected
with a pCMV expression vector containing a constitutively active
human 5-HT.sub.2A receptor (for the sequence of the receptor see
U.S. Pat. No. 6,541,209, SEQ ID NO:30) as described in Example 2.
The constitutively active human 5-HT.sub.2A receptor contained the
human 5-HT.sub.2A receptor described in part A except that
intracellular loop 3 (IC3) and the cytoplamic tail were replaced by
the corresponding human INI 5-HT2C cDNA. An IP accumulation assay
was performed as described below. Certain compounds of the
invention had activity values ranging from about 10 .mu.M to about
0.1 nM in this assay.
[0814] C. IP Accumulation Assay Protocol
[0815] On the day after transfections, media was removed and the
cells were washed with 5 mL PBS followed by careful aspiration.
Cells were then trypsinized with 2 mL of 0.05% trypsin for 20-30
seconds followed by addition of 10 mL of warmed media, gently
titurated to dissociate cells, and an additional 13 mL of warmed
media was gently added. Cells were then counted and 55,000 cells
were added to 96-well sterile poly-D-lysine treated plates. Cells
were allowed to attach over a six hour incubation at 37.degree. C.
in a 5% CO.sub.2 incubator. Media was then carefully aspirated and
100 .mu.L of warm inositol-free media plus 0.5
.mu.Ci.sup.3H-inositol was added to each well and the plates were
incubated for 18-20 hours at 37.degree. C. in a 5% CO.sub.2
incubator.
[0816] On the next day, media was carefully aspirated and then 0.1
mL of assay medium was added containing inositol-free/serum free
media, 10 .mu.M pargyline, 10 mM lithium chloride, and test
compound at indicated concentrations. The plates were then
incubated for three hours at 37.degree. C. and then wells were
carefully aspirated. Then 200 .mu.L of ice-cold 0.1M formic acid
was added to each well. Plates can then be frozen at this point at
-80.degree. C. until further processed. Frozen plates were then
thawed over the course of one hour, and the contents of the wells
(approximately 220 .mu.L) were placed over 400 .mu.L of washed
ion-exchange resin (AG 1-X8) contained in a Multi Screen Filtration
plate and incubated for 10 minutes followed by filtration under
vacuum pressure. Resin was then washed nine times with 200 .mu.L of
water and then tritiated inositol phosphates (IP, IP2, and IP3)
were eluted into a collecting plate by the addition of 200 ul of 1M
ammonium formate and an additional 10 minute incubation. The
elutant was then transferred to 20 mL scintillation vials, 8 mL of
SuperMix or Hi-Safe scintillation cocktails was added, and vials
were counted for 0.5-1 minutes in a Wallac 1414 scintillation
counter.
Example 4
Binding Assays
[0817] Compounds of the invention were tested for their ability to
bind to a 5-HT.sub.2A receptor clone membrane preparation using a
radioligand binding assay. Briefly, COS cells were transiently
transfected with a pCMV expression vector containing a human
5-HT.sub.2A receptor (for the sequence of the receptor see U.S.
Pat. No. 6,541,209, SEQ ID NO:24) as described in Example 2.
[0818] A. Preparation of Crude Membrane Preparations for
Radioligand Binding Assays
[0819] COS7 cells transfected with recombinant human 5-HT.sub.2A
receptors were cultured for 48 hr post transfection, collected,
washed with ice-cold phosphate buffered saline, pH7.4 (PBS), and
then centrifuged at 48,000.times.g for 20 min at 4.degree. C. The
cell pellet was then resuspended in wash buffer containing 20 mM
HEPES pH 7.4 and 0.1 mM EDTA, homogenized on ice using a Brinkman
polytron, and recentrifuged at 48,000.times.g for 20 min. at
4.degree. C. The resultant pellet was then resuspended in 20 mM
HEPES, pH 7.4, homogenized on ice, and centrifuged (48,000.times.g
for 20 min at 4.degree. C.). Crude membrane pellets were stored at
-80.degree. C. until used for radioligand binding assays.
[0820] B. [.sup.125I]DOI Radioligand Binding Assay
[0821] Radioligand binding assays for human 5-HT.sub.2A receptor
was conducted using the 5-HT.sub.2 agonist [.sup.1251]DOI as
radioligand. To define nonspecific binding, 10 .mu.M DOI was used
for all assays. For competitive binding studies, 0.5 nM
[.sup.125I]DOI was used and compounds were assayed over a range of
0.01 nM to 10 .mu.M. Assays were conducted in a total volume of 200
.mu.l in 96-well Perkin Elmer GF/C filter plates in assay buffer
(50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, 0.5 mM EDTA, 5 mM MgCl.sub.2, and 10 .mu.M
pargyline). Assay incubations were performed for 60 min at room
temperature and were terminated by rapid filtration under vacuum
pressure of the reaction mixture over Whatman GF/C glass fiber
filters presoaked in 0.5% PEI using a Brandell cell harvestor.
Filters were then washing several times with ice-cold wash buffer
(50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4). Plates were then dried at room
temperature and counted in a Wallac microBeta scintillation
counter. Certain compounds of the present invention and their
corresponding activity values are shown in following table.
TABLE-US-00005 Compound No. IC.sub.50 DOI Binding Assay (nM) 23 1.1

Certain other compounds of the invention had activity values
ranging from about 10 .mu.M to about 0.1 nM in this assay.
Example 5
In Vitro Human Platelet Aggregation Assays
[0822] Compounds of the invention were tested for their ability to
aggregate human platelets. Aggregation assays were performed using
a Chrono-Log Optical aggregometer model 410. Human blood
(.about.100 mL) was collected from human donors into glass
Vacutainers containing 3.8% sodium citrate (light blue tops) at
room temperature. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) was isolated via
centrifugation at 100 g for 15 min at room temperature. After
removal of the aqueous PRP layer, the platelet poor plasma (PPP)
was prepared via high speed centrifugation at 2400 g for 20 min.
Platelets were counted and their concentration was set to 250,000
cells/.mu.l by dilution with PPP. Aggregation assays were conducted
according to the manufacturer's specifications. Briefly, a
suspension of 450 .mu.l PRP was stirred in a glass cuvette (1200
rpm) and, after baseline was established, 1 .mu.M ADP followed by
either saline or 1 .mu.M 5HT and compound of interest (at desired
concentrations) were added and the aggregation response recorded.
The concentration of ADP used causes approximately 10-20% of
maximal aggregation. The 5-HT concentration corresponded to the
concentration which produced maximal potentiation. Percent
inhibition of aggregation was calculated from the maximum decrease
in optical density of the controls and of the samples containing
inhibitors. Only the synergistic effect was assessed. Certain
compounds of the invention had activity values ranging from about
80 .mu.M to about 1 nM in this assay. Other compounds of the
invention had activity values ranging from about 8 .mu.M to about 2
nM in this assay.
Example 6
Efficacy of Compounds of the Invention in the Attenuation of
DOI-Induced Hypolocomotion in Rats
[0823] In this example, compounds of the invention can be tested
for inverse agonist activity by determining whether these compounds
could attenuate DOI-induced hypolocomotion in rats in a novel
environment. DOI is a potent 5-HT.sub.2A/.sub.2C receptor agonist
that crosses the blood-brain barrier. The standard protocol used is
described briefly below.
Animals:
[0824] Male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing between 200-300 g are used
for all tests. Rats are housed three to four per cage. These rats
are naive to experimental testing and drug treatment. Rats are
handled one to three days before testing to acclimate them to
experimental manipulation. Rats are fasted overnight prior to
testing.
Compounds:
[0825] (R)-DOI HCl (C.sub.11H.sub.16INO.sub.2.HCl) can be obtained
from Sigma-Aldrich, and is dissolved in 0.9% saline. Compounds of
the invention are synthesized at Arena Pharmaceuticals Inc. and are
dissolved in 100% PEG400. DOI is injected s.c. in a volume of 1
mL/kg, while compounds of the invention are administered p.o. in a
volume of 2 mL/kg.
Procedure:
[0826] The "Motor Monitor" (Hamilton-Kinder, Poway, Calif.) is used
for all activity measurement. This apparatus recorded rears using
infrared photobeams.
[0827] Locomotor activity testing is conducted during the light
cycle (0630-1830) between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Animals are
allowed 30 min acclimation to the testing room before testing
began.
[0828] In determining the effects of compounds of the invention on
DOI-induced hypoactivity, animals are first injected with vehicle
or the compound of the invention (50 .mu.mol/kg) in their home
cages. Sixty minutes later, saline or DOI (0.3 mg/kg salt) is
injected. 10 min after DOI administration, animals are placed into
the activity apparatus and rearing activity is measured for 10
minutes.
Statistics and Results:
[0829] Results (total rears over 10 minutes) are analyzed by
t-test. P<0.05 is considered significant.
Example 7
In Vitro Binding of 5-HT.sub.2A Receptor
Animals:
[0830] Animals (Sprague-Dawley rats) are sacrificed and brains are
rapidly dissected and frozen in isopentane maintained at
-42.degree. C. Horizontal sections are prepared on a cryostat and
maintained at -20.degree. C.
LSD Displacement Protocol:
[0831] Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) is a potent 5-HT.sub.2A
receptor and dopamine D.sub.2 receptor ligand. An indication of the
selectivity of compounds for either or both of these receptors
involves displacement of radiolabeled-bound LSD from pre-treated
brain sections. For these studies, radiolabeled .sup.125I-LSD (NEN
Life Sciences, Boston, Mass., Catalogue number NEX-199) can be
utilized; spiperone (RBI, Natick, Mass. Catalogue number s-128) a
5-HT.sub.2A receptor and dopamine D.sub.2 receptor antagonist, can
also utilized. Buffer consists of 50 nanomolar TRIS-HCl, pH
7.4.
[0832] Brain sections are incubated in (a) Buffer plus 1 nanomolar
.sup.125I-LSD; (b) Buffer plus 1 nanomolar .sup.125I-LSD and 1
micromolar spiperone; or Buffer plus 1 nanomolar .sup.125I-LSD and
1 micromolar Compound of interest for 30 minutes at room
temperature. Sections are then washed 2.times.10 minutes at
4.degree. C. in Buffer, followed by 20 seconds in distilled
H.sub.2O, Slides are then air-dried.
[0833] After drying, sections are apposed to x-ray film (Kodak
Hyperfilm) and exposed for 4 days.
Example 8
Serotonin 5-HT.sub.2A Receptor Occupancy Studies in Monkey
[0834] In this example, the 5-HT.sub.2A receptor occupancy of a
compound of the invention can be measured. The study can be carried
out in rhesus monkeys using PET and .sup.18F-altanserin.
Radioligand:
[0835] The PET radioligand used for the occupancy studies is
.sup.18F-altanserin. Radiosynthesis of .sup.18F-altanserin is
achieved in high specific activities and is suitable for
radiolabeling 5-HT.sub.2A receptors in vivo (see Staley et al.,
Nucl. Med. Biol., 28:271-279 (2001) and references cited within).
Quality control issues (chemical and radiochemical purity, specific
activity, stability etc) and appropriate binding of the radioligand
are verified in rat brain slices prior to use in PET
experiments.
Drug Doses and Formulations:
[0836] Briefly, the radiopharmaceutical is dissolved in sterile
0.9% saline, pH approx 6-7. The compounds of the invention are
dissolved in 60% PEG 400-40% sterile saline on the same day of the
PET experiment.
[0837] Serotonin 5-HT.sub.2A occupancy studies in humans have been
reported for M100,907 (Grunder et al., Neuropsychopharmacology,
17:175-185 (1997), and Talvik-Lofti et al., Psychopharmacology,
148:400-403 (2000)). High occupancies of the 5-HT.sub.2A receptors
have been reported for various oral doses (doses studied ranged
from 6 to 20 mg). For example, an occupancy of >90% was reported
for a dose of 20 mg (Talvik-Lofti et al., supra), which translates
to approx. 0.28 mg/kg. It may therefore be anticipated that an i.v.
dose of 0.1 to 0.2 mg/kg of M100,907 is likely to provide high
receptor occupancy. A 0.5 mg/kg dose of a Compound of the invention
can be used in these studies.
PET Experiments:
[0838] The monkey is anesthetized by using ketamine (10 mg/kg) and
is maintained using 0.7 to 1.25% isoflurane. Typically, the monkey
has two i.v. lines, one on each arm. One i.v. line is used to
administer the radioligand, while the other line is used to draw
blood samples for pharmacokinetic data of the radioligand as well
as the cold drugs. Generally, rapid blood samples are taken as the
radioligand is administered which then taper out by the end of the
scan. A volume of approximately 1 mL of blood is taken per time
point, which is spun down, and a portion of the plasma is counted
for radioactivity in the blood.
[0839] An initial control study is carried out in order to measure
baseline receptor densities. PET scans on the monkey are separated
by at least two weeks. Unlabeled Compound of the invention is
administered intravenously, dissolved in 80% PEG 400:40% sterile
saline.
PET Data Analysis:
[0840] PET data are analyzed by using cerebellum as the reference
region and using the distribution volume region (DVR) method. This
method has been applied for the analysis of .sup.18F-altanserin PET
data in nonhuman primate and human studies (Smith et al., Synapse,
30:380-392 (1998).
Example 9
The Effect of Compounds of the Invention and Zolpidem on Delta
Power in Rats
[0841] In this example, the effect of Compounds of the invention on
sleep and wakefullness can be compared to the reference drug
zolpidem. Drugs are administered during the middle of the light
period (inactivity period).
[0842] Briefly, Compounds of the invention are tested for their
effects on sleep parameters and are compared to zolpidem (5.0
mg/kg, Sigma, St. Louis, Mo.) and vehicle control (80% Tween 80,
Sigma, St. Louis, Mo.). A repeated measures design is employed in
which each rat is to receive seven separate dosings via oral
gavage. The first and seventh dosings are vehicle and the second
through sixth are the test compounds and zolpidem given in
counter-balanced order. Since all dosings are administered while
the rats are connected to the recording apparatus, 60% CO.sub.2/40%
O.sub.2 gas is employed for light sedation during the oral gavage
process. Rats are fully recovered within 60 seconds following the
procedure. A minimum of three days elapses between dosings. In
order to test the effect of the compounds on sleep consolidation,
dosing occurs during the middle of the rats' normal inactive period
(6 hours following lights on). Dosing typically occurs between
13:15 and 13:45 using a 24 hour notation. All dosing solutions are
made fresh on the day of dosing. Following each dosing, animals are
continuously recorded until lights out the following day (.about.30
hours).
Animal Recording and Surgical Procedures:
[0843] Animals are housed in a temperature controlled recording
room under a 12/12 light/dark cycle (lights on at 7:00 am) and have
food and water available ad libitum. Room temperature (24+2.degree.
C.), humidity (50+20% relative humidity) and lighting conditions
are monitored continuously via computer. Drugs are administered via
oral gavage as described above, with a minimum of three days
between dosings. Animals are inspected daily in accordance with NIH
guidelines.
[0844] Eight male Wistar rats (300+25 g; Charles River, Wilmington,
Mass.) are prepared with chronic recording implants for continuous
electroencephalograph (EEG) and electromyograph (EMG) recordings.
Under isoflurane anesthesia (1-4%), the fur is shaved from the top
of the skull and the skin was disinfected with Betadine and
alcohol. A dorsal midline incision is made, the temporalis muscle
retracted, and the skull cauterized and thoroughly cleaned with a
2% hydrogen peroxide solution. Stainless steel screws (#000) are
implanted into the skull and served as epidural electrodes. EEG
electrodes are positioned bilaterally at +2.0 mm AP from bregma and
2.0 mm ML and at -6.0 mm AP and 3.0 mm ML. Multi-stranded twisted
stainless steel wire electrodes are sutured bilaterally in the neck
muscles for recording of the EMG. EMG and EEG electrodes are
soldered to a head plug connector that was affixed to the skull
with dental acrylic. Incisions are closed with suture (silk 4-0)
and antibiotics administered topically. Pain is relieved by a
long-lasting analgesic (Buprenorphine) administered intramuscularly
once post-operatively. Post-surgery, each animal is placed in a
clean cage and observed until it is recovered. Animals are
permitted a minimum of one week post-operative recovery before
study.
[0845] For sleep recordings, animals are connected via a cable and
a counter-balanced commutator to a Neurodata model 15 data
collection system (Grass-Telefactor, West Warwick, R.I.). The
animals are allowed an acclimation period of at least 48 hours
before the start of the experiment and are connected to the
recording apparatus continuously throughout the experimental period
except to replace damaged cables. The amplified EEG and EMG signals
are digitized and stored on a computer using SleepSign software
(Kissei Comtec, Irvine Calif.).
Data Analysis:
[0846] EEG and EMG data are scored visually in 10 second epochs for
waking (W), REMS, NREMS. Scored data are analyzed and expressed as
time spent in each state per half hour. Sleep bout length and
number of bouts for each state are calculated in hourly bins. A
"bout" consists of a minimum of two consecutive epochs of a given
state. EEG delta power (0.5-3.5 Hz) within NREMS is also analyzed
in hourly bins. The EEG spectra during NREMS are obtained offline
with a fast Fourier transform algorithm on all epochs without
artifact. The delta power is normalized to the average delta power
in NREMS between 23:00 and 1:00, a time when delta power is
normally lowest.
[0847] Data are analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA. Light phase
and dark phase data are analyzed separately. Both the treatment
effect within each rat and the time by treatment effect within each
rat is analyzed. Since two comparisons are made, a minimum value of
P<0.025 is required for post hoc analysis. When statistical
significance is found from the ANOVAs, t-tests are performed
comparing all compounds to vehicle and the test compounds to
zolpidem.
Example 10
Efficacy of Compounds of the Invention in the Inhibition of JC
Virus Infection of Human Glial Cells
[0848] A compound of the invention can be shown to inhibit JC virus
infection of human glial cells using the in vitro model of Elphick
et al. [Science (2004) 306:1380-1383], essentially as described
briefly here.
[0849] Cells and JC Virus
[0850] The human glial cell line SVG (or a suitable subclone
thereof, such as SVG-A) is used for these experiments. SVG is a
human glial cell line established by transformation of human fetal
glial cells by an origin defective SV40 mutant [Major et al., Proc.
Natl. Acad. Sci. USA(1985) 82:1257-1261]. SVG cells are cultured in
Eagle's minimum essential medium (Mediatech Inc., Herndon, Va.)
supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum, and kept
in a humidified 37.degree. C. 5% CO.sub.2 incubator.
[0851] The Mad-1/SVE.DELTA. strain of JC virus [Vacante et al.,
Virology (1989) 170:353-361] is used for these experiments. While
the host range of JC virus is typically limited to growth in human
fetal glial cells, the host range of Mad-1/SVE.DELTA. extends to
human kidney and monkey cell types. Mad-1/SVE.DELTA. is propagated
in HEK cells. Virus titer is measured by hemagglutination of human
type O erythrocytes.
[0852] Assay for Inhibition of JC Virus Infection
[0853] SVG cells growing on coverslips are pre-incubated at
37.degree. C. for 45 min with or without the compound of the
invention diluted in media containing 2% FCS. By way of
illustration and not limitation, the compound of the invention is
used at a concentration of about 1 nM to about 100 .mu.M, at a
concentration of about 10 nM to about 100 .mu.M, at a concentration
of about 1 nM to about 10 .mu.M, or at a concentration of about 10
nM to about 10 .mu.M.
[0854] JC virus (Mad-1/SVE.DELTA.) is then added at an MOI of 1.0
and the cells are incubated for 1 hr at 37.degree. C. in the
continued presence of the compound of the invention. The cells are
then washed 3.times. in PBS and fed with growth media containing
the compound of the invention. At 72 hr post-infection, V antigen
positive cells are scored by indirect immunofluorescence (see
below). Controls include the addition of the compound of the
invention at 24 and 48 h post-infection. The percentage of infected
cells in untreated cultures is set at 100%.
[0855] Indirect Immunofluorescence
[0856] For indirect immunofluorescence analysis of V antigen
expression, SVG cells growing on coverslips are fixed in ice cold
acetone. To detect V antigen expression, the cells are then
incubated for 30 min at 37.degree. C. with a 1:10 dilution of
hybridoma supernatant from PAB597. The PAB597 hybridoma produces a
monoclonal antibody against the SV40 capsid protein VP1 which has
been shown to cross-react with JC virus VP1. The cells are then
washed and incubated with goat anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 488 secondary
antibody for an additional 30 min. After a final wash, the cells
are counterstained with 0.05% Evan's blue, mounted onto glass
slides using 90% glycerol in PBS and visualized on Nikon E800
epifluorescent scope. Images are captured using a Hamamatsu digital
camera and analyzed using Improvision software.
Example 11
In Vitro Dog Platelet Aggregation Assays
[0857] Approximately 50 mL of blood was pooled from 3 male beagles.
The protocol for analyzing the effects of compounds on platelet
aggregation were identical to those used for human platelets (see
Example 5, supra) except 5 .mu.M ADP and 2 .mu.M 5-HT were used to
stimulate amplification of platelet aggregation. Results: IC.sub.50
curves were generated for each compound tested which ranged from
about 2 nM to greater than about 10 .mu.M.
Example 12
Ex-Vivo Dog Whole Blood Aggregation
[0858] One hour following PO dosing with a test compound whole
blood was collected from male beagle dogs in a 5 mL vacutainer with
exogenous heparin (5 U/mL) added to vacutainer. Aggregation studies
were evaluated by using whole blood Aggregometer (Chronolog Corp.).
Briefly, whole blood (400 uL) was added to saline (600 uL) with
constant stirring and activated with 5 ug of Collagen (Chronolog
Corp.). The serotonin response was obtained by adding 5-HT (Sigma)
to final concentration of 2.5 .mu.M. Results: Selected compounds
were tested for anti-platelet aggregation activity after single
bolus oral dosing. The dose that afforded maximal inhibition of
5-HT amplified platelet aggregation was identified and used for
comparison. Certain compounds demonstrated significant inhibition
of 5-HT amplified collagen platelet aggregation at a range of
concentrations from 0.1 mg/kg to 5 mg/kg.
Example 12
Rat In Vivo Thrombosis, Bleeding, Aggregation, PK Assay
Thrombosis Formation and Bleeding Time:
[0859] This model concomitantly measures thrombus formation,
bleeding time, platelet aggregation and drug exposure in a single
live dosed rat. Test compounds where administered to male rats
(weighing 250-350 g) via PO injection at varying concentrations
depending on compound potency ranging from 1 mpk-100 mpk. Animals
where then anesthetized using Nembutal approximately 30 min post
PO. Once the animal was fully anesthetized using approved surgical
techniques the animal's right femoral artery was isolated in 2
different sections approximately 4-6 mm in length, one area for
probe placement and one for Ferric Chloride patch positioning. The
artery was then allowed to stabilize to allow recovery from the
surgery. During stabilization the animal was then intubated and
placed on a ventilator (Harvard Apparatus, Inc.) at 75 strokes/min
with a volume of 2.5 cubic cm. Following intubation and after
stabilization a micro arterial probe (Transonic Systems, Inc) was
then placed on the distal isolated femoral artery. Once the probe
was in place the flow was monitored using a Powerlab recording
system (AD Instruments) to monitor rate of pulsatile flow. A small
piece of filter paper soaked in 30% ferric chloride was placed on
the area of the artery upstream of the probe for 10 min. After 5
min of Ferric Choloride patch placement the last 3 mm of the rat's
tail was removed. The tail was then placed in a saline filled glass
vial at 37 degree and the time it took for bleeding to stop was
recorded. After the Ferric chloride patch was removed the flow was
recorded until the artery was occluded and time to occlusion was
recorded.
Whole Blood Aggregation and PK:
[0860] Following measurement of bleeding and time to occlusion 5 mL
of blood was obtained for ex-vivo aggregation analysis by cardiac
puncture in heparin (5 U/mL). An additional 500 .mu.L of blood was
collected in a separate vacutainer for PK analysis (plasma drug
concentration). Ex-vivo aggregation studies were evaluated by using
whole blood Aggregometer (Chronolog Corp.). Briefly, whole blood
(400 .mu.L) was added to saline (600 .mu.L) with constant stirring
and activated with 2.55 .mu.g of Collagen (Chronolog Corp.). The
serotonin response was obtained by adding 5-HT (Sigma) to final
concentration of 2.5 .mu.M. Results: Test compounds or reference
compounds with acceptable levels of binding to rat 5-HT2A receptors
were evaluated for effects of thrombus formation, bleeding and
platelet activity in a single model. This allowed for the most
accurate demonstration of separation of the test compound effects
on platelet mediated thrombus formation from effects on bleeding.
For example the ED.sub.50 generated for Compound 5 for the time to
occlusion and bleeding time in this model demonstrated a
.about.7-fold separation (log scale) in this therapeutic index.
