Definitions
- This invention relates to novel 1 ,5-benzodiazepine derivatives, to processes for their preparation, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them and to their use in medicine. More particularly, it relates to compounds which exhibit agonist activity for CCK-A receptors.
- Cholecystokinin is a peptide found in the gastrointestinal tract and the central nervous system, see A.J. Prange et al., Ann. Reports Med. Chem. 17, 31 , 33 (1982), J. A. Williams, Biomed Res. 3, 107 (1982) and V. Mutt, Gastrointestinal Hormones, G.B.J. Green, Ed., Raven Press, N.Y., 169.
- CCK has been implicated inter alia as a physiological satiety hormone involved in appetite regulation, see Della-Ferra et al, Science, 206, 471 (1979), Saito et al., Nature, 289, 599, (1981), G.P.
- CCK-A and CCK-B Two subtypes of CCK receptors have been identified, designated as CCK-A and CCK-B, and both have been found in the periphery and central nervous systems. It has recently been reported that CCK-B receptors are similar to the gastrin receptor, see Pisegna, J.R., de Weerth, A, Huppi, K, Wank, S.A., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 189, 296-303 (1992). CCK-A receptors are located predominantly in peripheral tissues including the pancreas, gallbladder, ileum, pyloric sphincter and vagal afferent nerve fibers; CCK-A receptors are found to a lesser extent in the brain, see T.H.
- CCK agonist activity has been linked to inhibition of food intake in animals and thus weight loss, see Della-Fera, et al, supra, K.E. Asin, et al, Intl. Conference on Obesity, abstract pp.40 (1990). It has been suggested that CCK acts in the periphery through vagal fibers and not directly on the brain to produce satiety, see Smith, G.P. and Cushin, B.J., Neuroscience Abstr., 4, 180 (1978), Smith, G.P., Jerome, C, Cushin, B.J., Eterno, R., and Simansky, K.J., Science, 212, 687-689, (1981 ).

- (+) and (-)-enantiomers and the racemic mixture were characterized in the following assays.
- the results of these assays are summarized in the table below.
- Gallbladders were removed from male Hartley guinea pigs sacrificed with CO2 atmosphere.
- the isolated gallbladders were cleaned of adherent connective tissue and cut into two rings from each animal (2-4 mm in length).
- the rings were suspended in organ chambers containing a physiological salt solution (118.4 mM NaCI, 4.7 mM KCI, 1.2 mM MgS04, 2.5 mM CaCl2, 1.2 mM KH2PO3, 25 mM NaHC03 , 11.1 mM dextrose).
- Tissues were connected via gold chains and stainless steel mounting wires to isometric force displacement transducers (Grass, Model FT03 D). Responses were then recorded on a polygraph (Grass, Model 7E).
- One tissue from each animal served as a time/solvent control and did not receive test compound. Rings were gradually stretched (over a 120-min. period) to a basal resting tension of 1 gm which was maintained throughout the experiment. During the basal tension adjustment period, the rings were exposed to acetylcholine (10 ⁇ 6 M) four times to verify tissue contractility. The tissues were then exposed to a submaximal dose of sulfated CCK-8 (Sigma, 3 X 10"9 M). After obtaining a stable response, the tissues were washed out 3 times rapidly and every 5 to 10 minutes for 1 hour to reestablish a stable baseline.
- Agonist EC50's Compounds were dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) then diluted with water and assayed via a cumulative concentration-response curve to test compound (10" ' ' 1 to 3 X 10 ⁇ 5 M) followed by a concentration-response curve to sulfated CCK-8 (10" ' ' 0 to 10"6 M) in the presence of the highest concentration of the test compound. As a final test, acetylcholine (1 mM) was added to induce maximal contraction. A minimum of three determinations of activity were made for each test compound.
- DMSO dimethylsulfoxide
- the cDNA clones for the human CCK-A 1 8 or CCK-B 19 receptors were ligated into pcDNA1-Neo vector from Invitrogen Corp (San Diego, CA) for direct transfection. DNA was prepared by the alkaline lysis method and transfected into CHO-K1 cells (ATCC,
- Stable transfectants were initially selected by the use of Geneticin (Gibco BRL) and receptor bearing resistant cells were enriched by fluorescence-activated cell sorting based on binding of Fluorescein-Gly-[(Nle28,31]-CCK-8. Clonal lines were subsequently established by the limiting dilution method.
- CCK-A or CCK-B receptor cDNA were grown at 37°C under a humidified atmosphere (95% 02 5% CO2) in Ham's F12 medium supplemented with 5% heat inactivated fetal bovine serum. The cells were passaged twice weekly and grown to a density of 2-4 million cells/mL. The cells were collected by centrifugation (600 X g, 15 min, 4°C) and resuspended in buffer (20 mL, pH 7.4) containing TrisHCI (25 mM), EDTA (5 mM), EGTA (5 mM), phenyl sulfonyl fluoride (0.1 mM) and soybean trypsin inhibitor (100 ⁇ g/mL).
- Receptor Binding Assays 125 l-Bolton Hunter CCK-8 (Amersham, 2000 Ci/mmol) was dissolved in binding buffer (pH 7.4, 100,000 cpm/25 ⁇ L) containing HEPES (20 mM), NaCI (118 mM), KCI (5 mM), MgCI2 (5 mM) and EGTA (1 mM). Nonspecific binding was determined with MK-329 20 (10 ⁇ M, CCK-A) or L- 365,260 21 (10 ⁇ M, CCK-B). Test compounds were dissolved in DMSO at a stock concentration of 100 times the final assay concentration and diluted to appropriate concentrations with binding buffer.
- Binding assays were performed in triplicate using 96-well plates to which the following were added sequentially: test compound (25 ⁇ L), 125 l-Bolton Hunter CCK-8 (25 ⁇ L), buffer (pH 7.4, 150 ⁇ L) and receptor preparation (50 ⁇ L). The final concentration of DMSO was 1 % in all assay wells. After 3 hours at 30°C, the incubation was terminated by rapid filtration of the mixture onto glass filters (Whatman GF/B) with subsequent washing to remove unbound ligand. Bound radioactivity was quantified by gamma counting.
- the maximal response was normalized to the maximal response induced by CCK-8. ECso's were calculated at the concentration required to induce half-maximal response.
- Anorexia Assays Male Long-Evans rats (225-300 g) were conditioned for two weeks to consume a palatable liquid diet (Bio-Serve F1657, Frenchtown, NJ) after a 2 hr fast. On pretreatment day, rats were fasted (100 min) and injected IP with drug vehicle (propylene glycol, PG, 1 mlJkg) and an oral preload of saline (0.9% NaCI, 8 mL/kg). Liquid diet access was provided 20 min later and consumption was measured at 30, 90 and 180 min. To qualify for the drug treatment study, rats had to consume at least 8 mL of liquid diet within the first 30 minutes on the pretreatment day.
- drug vehicle propylene glycol, PG, 1 mlJkg
- rats (8 - 10 animals per dose) were treated IP or PO with vehicle (PG, 1 mL/kg) or various doses (0.01 to 10 ⁇ mol/kg) of test compound dissolved in PG (1 mLJkg), immediately followed by the saline oral preload.
- Food access was again provided 20 min later and food intake was measured at 30, 90 and 180 min. All food intake data were normalized for each rat to the respective values from the pretreatment day. Potency was determined at 30 min and efficacy at the 30 min, 1 ⁇ mol/kg dose.
- the (+) enantiomer was four-fold more potent than the racemate in the in vitro isolated guinea pig gallbladder test ("GPGB").
- the (+) enantiomer was eight-fold more potent than the racemate in the mouse gallbladder emptying assay (oral dosing). This increased potency is expected to be beneficial in the treatment of gallbladder stasis and in the treatment of obesity, since gallbladder stasis is a critical problem with rapid weight loss.
- Anorectic agents are intended for chronic use and thus it is essential that they possess minimal risk for toxicity.
- the primary toxicity associated with the use of cholecystokinin is concomitant CCK-B receptor agonist activity.
- Activation of the CCK-B receptor is primarily associated with increased anxiety and increased gastric acid secretion.
- CCK-B antagonists have been explored for both the development of anxiolytic agents and anti-ulcer agents. See, for example, Lowe, J, "Cholecystokinin-B Receptor Antagonists" in Exp. Opin. Ther. Patents, 5(3), pp 231-237 (1995).
- the predominant CCK receptor subtype in the rodent pancreas is the CCK-A subtype and activation of this subtype induces pancreatic hyperstimulation and hypertrophy in rodents. Both of these activities are considered to be undesirable.
- the tissue distribution of CCK receptors in human tissues has been reported.
- the predominate receptor subtype in human pancreas is the CCK-B receptor subtype. See, for example, Wank, S. A., "Cholecystokinin Receptors" in American Journal of Physiology - Gastrointestinal & Liver Physiology, 32(5):, pp G628-G646, (1995).
- activation of the CCK-B receptor could induce increased anxiety and gastric acid secretion, as well as pancreatic hyperstimulation and hypertrophy with long term use.
- the preferred compound should have affinity for the CCK-B receptor and have measurable CCK-B antagonist activity in in vitro assays. Both enantiomers and the racemate are CCK-B antagonists. Although all three compositions have similar human CCK-A receptor affinities (IC50) and efficacies (EC50), the (+) enantiomer has the highest CCK-B receptor affinity (IC50) and selectivity (46- fold). Thus, the (+) enantiomer is preferred both in terms of CCK-A potency and efficacy, as well as in terms of the minimal potential for CCK-B induced toxic side effects.
- the (+) enantiomer of the invention is essentially non-toxic at therapeutically useful doses.
- the maximum non-lethal dose was found to be greater than 2000mg/kg in the rat and 1000mg/kg for male mice and 500mg/kg for female mice.
