Description

CARBONIC ANHYDRASE INHIBITOR
FIELD OF INVENTION
This application claims priority to provisional application Serial No.
60/311,561 filed August 10, 2001.
The present invention relates in general to the use of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, drugs, or agents in medicine and, more specifically, to the use of compounds that exhibit carbonic anhydrase (CAS inhibitor activity and compounds that exhibit both carbonic anhydrase (CA) and cylcooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor activity, in methods of treatment of diseases associated with the isozymes of carbonic anhydrase or with COX-2, or both.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Carbonic anhydrases are metalloprotein enzymes which catalyze the hydration of carbon dioxide and the dehydration of bicarbonate: C02 + HZO -> HCO-3 +
I3~.
The carbonic anhydrases are widespread in nature and found in animals, plants and certain bacteria. In humans CA has at least fourteen (14) isoenzymes with different physiological functions. (Scozzafava et al, J.Med.Chern., 43:3677-3687, 2000).
The CA isozymes are involved in respiration and transport of COJbicarbonate between metabolizing tissues and the lungs, pH homeostasis, electrolyte secretion in a variety of tissues, and biosynthetic reactions such as lipogenesis, gluconeogenesis, and ureagenesis.
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors initially were developed as diuretics for the treatment of edema. One mechanism of the diuretic action is due to the inhibitory effect of sulfanilamide on the carbonic anhydrase enzyme, resulting in increased bicarbonate excretion and obligatory water loss through the kidneys. Although carbonic anhydrase inhibitors may be used to treat edema associated with congestive heart failure and for drug-induced edema, presently the major indication for carbonic anydrase inhibitors is for treatment of open-angle glaucoma. Also the carbonic anhydrase inhibitors may be used to treat secondary glaucoma and preoperatively in acute angle closure glaucoma before surgery.
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors also are used to treat optic neuropathy associated with elevated intracranial pressure and to treat pseudomotor cerebri in headache management. Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors have been used to treat cystoid macular edema (CME). (Wolfensberger, T.J., Doc Opthalmol 1999; 97 (3-4):387-97).
Acetazolamide has been shown to potentiate the antitumor activity of 1-phthalidyl 5-fluorouracil (PH-5-FU). (Hisanori Kaisai. et. al, Cancer Claemother Pharmacol. 1986; 16(1):55-7). Acetazolamide was shown to reduce invasiveness of certain renal cancer cell lines. (Parkkila, S. et al, PNAS, 97:5:2220-2224, 2000.
Some thiadiazole-2-sulfonamide carbonic anhydrase inhibitors have been shown to inhibit cell growth in leukemia, non-small cell lung cancer, ovarian cancer, melanoma, colon, CNS, renal, prostate and breast cancer cell lines. (C.
Supuran, et al, Eur.J.Med.Chem, 35: 867-874 (2000)).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Generally, the present invention encompasses. agents that inhibit isoz~mes of carbonic anhydrase and their method of use in medicine in preventing or treating various diseases or conditions in which carbonic anhydrase is implicated or involved in metabolic pathways that influence the diseases or conditions. The term "carbonic anhydrases" as used herein refers to the metalloprotein enzymes which catalyze the simple interconversion of CO~ and H2C03 (C02 + H20 --~ HC03 + H+).
The term "carbonic anhydrase inhibitor" as used herein refers to agents that reduce or inhibit the activity of human carbonic anhydrases.
The term "CA" as used herein is an abbreviation of carbonic anhydrase.
The term "CA II" as used herein means the 260 amino acid protein human carbonic anhydrase II enzyme.
The term "TRIS buffer" as used herein means Tris hydroxymethylaminoethane, NH2C(CH20H)3, CAS number 00077-S6-1.
Aminoalkylcarbonyl as used herein means a straight or branched chain carbon substituent having a nitrogen atom adjacent to a carbonyl carbon, wherein the carbonyl carbon is double-bonded to an oxygen atom, and wherein the point of attachment is at an open valence of the nitrogen atom. An exemplary ainoalkylcarbonyl is:
l wherein the undulate line denotes the point of attachment.

Heterocyclyalkylaminocarbonyldialkoxyaminoalkylcarbonylthionyl as used herein means a straight or branched chain glycol substituent having a terminal heterocycle moiety, an aminocarbonyl moiety, and an alkylcarbonylthionyl moiety at the point of attachment.
An exemplary heterocyclyalkylaminocarbonyldialkoxyaminoalkylcarbonylthionyl has the formula:
wherein the undulate line denotes the point of attachment.
The invention also encompasses some agents. that exhibit more than one therapeutic effect, in that they inhibit carbonic anhydrases and inhibit cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), concomitantly. Some of the agents have utility in the treatment of carbonic anhydrase and COX-2 associated disorders, diseases or physiological conditions. The agents have therapeutic applications such as treatment of ophthalmic or ocular diseases, such as glaucoma and macular degeneration, inflammatory conditions and neoplastic diseases or conditions. The invention also encompasses therapeutic combinations of the carbonic anhydrase inhibitors with other therapeutic agents, such as ophthalmic drugs or agents and antineoplastic agents.
As set out in detail immediately helow, Compounds I, II, III, IV, V, VI and VII demonstrate carbonic anhydrase inhibition in vitro. In summary, Compound I
is a potent inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase, with an ICSO of 20nM. Compound I is a more potent inhibitor than acetazolamide (ICSO of 30nM). The selective COX-2 inhibitors having sulfonamide structures, celecoxib (Compound V) and valdecoxib (Compound VII), inhibit carbonic anhydrase with an average ICSO of 140nM and 330nM, respectively. The selective COX-2 inhibitor rofecoxib (Compound VIL1]
did not exhibit significant carbonic anhydrase inhibition.
EXAMPLE
The inhibitory activity of COX-2 inhibitors and other structurally related compounds on human carbonic anhydrase activity was. investigated.

Compound VII (valdecoxib) also is a selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, disclosed in detail in U.S. Patent No. 5,633,272, incorporated herein by reference.
Compound VIII (rofecoxib) is a selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, described in detail in U.S.
Patent No. 5,691,375, which is incorporated herein by reference. Compound IV
exhibits cyclooxygenase inhibitor activity, but appears to be more selective for COX-2 than COX-1. Compound I and Compound VI do not inhibit cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) but weakly inhibit COX-2. Compounds II, III, IX, and X do not exhibit cyclooxygenase inhibitory activity.
The terms "cyclooxygenase-1" and "COX-1" used interchangeably herein refer to the constitutive isoform of the enzyme cyclooxygenase. The terms "cyclooxygenase-2" and "COX-2 as used interchangeably herein refer to the inducible isoform of the enzyme cyclooxygenase. The term "COX-2 selectivity" has been given numerous and varied definitions in the published literature. Selectivity has been understood to refer, alternatively, to a variety of in vitro conditions and to a variety of in vivo conditions. In vitro selectivity does not necessarily mean the same thing as in vivo selectivity. However, as used herein, the terms "cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor" and "COX-2 selective inhibitor" are used interchangeably herein and for the present invention refer to a therapeutic compound that inhibits cyclooxygenase-2 more than it inhibits cyclooxygenase-1 in an in vitro recombinant enzyme assay. The term "cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor" or "COX-2 inhibitor" refers to any compound which. inhibits the COX-2 enzyme, without regard to the extent to which it inhibits COX-1. Especially suitable as cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitors useful in the present invention are those compounds that have a cyclooxygenase-2 IC50 of less than about 0.2 ~,M, and also have a selectivity ratio of cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition over cyclooxygenase-1 inhibition of at least 50, and more preferably of at least 100.
Even more preferably, the cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor compounds have a cyclooxygenase-1 IC50 of greater than about 1 ~,M, and more preferably of greater than 10 ~,M.

The selective COX-2 inhibitor rofecoxib did not inhibit the enzyme up to 100 ~M. The known inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase, acetazolamide, and Compound I, blocked CA II activity with ICsos of 0.03 p,M
and 0.01 ~,M, respectively.
