Definitions

  • This invention relates to azaquinazoline derivatives. More particularly, this invention relates to 6-amino-7-azaquinazoline derivatives and to processes for the preparation of, intermediates used in the preparation of, compositions containing and the uses of, such derivatives.
  • the azaquinazoline derivatives of the present invention are antagonists of the human metabotropic glutamate subtype 1 receptor (mGluRI) and have a number of therapeutic applications, particularly in the treatment of pain.
  • mGluRI human metabotropic glutamate subtype 1 receptor
  • the azaquinazoline derivatives of the invention are selective mGluRI receptor antagonists.
  • they show an affinity for the mGluRI receptor which is greater than their affinity for the mGluR ⁇ receptor.
  • Preferred compounds of the invention show at least a 100-fold selectivity for the mGluRI receptor as compared with the mGluR ⁇ receptor.
  • the compounds of the invention show little or no affinity for the enzyme EGFR kinase.
  • Glutamate is an important neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, activating cation channels via ionotropic glutamate receptors and modulating cell excitability by action at G-protein coupled metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs).
  • mGluRs G-protein coupled metabotropic glutamate receptors
  • Eight metabotropic glutamate receptor subtypes have been identified and further classified into three distinct groups based on their sequence homology, pharmacology and coupling to intracellular effector mechanisms.
  • the group I mGluRs consisting of mGluRI and mGluR ⁇ , are postsynaptic and are primarily coupled to phospholipase C, regulating neuronal excitability via phosphoinositide hydrolysis, release of intracellular
  • mGluR4, mGluR6, mGluR7, mGluR8 are primarily presynaptic auto receptors and inhibit adenylyl cyclase through a pertusis toxin sensitive G-protein, inhibiting cyclic AMP formation and the activation of cAMP dependent protein kinase.
  • Activity at excitatory glutamatergic pathways is associated with a number of neuropathologies including: ischaemic damage, neurodegeneration, pain, depression, drug dependency, epilepsy, Parkinsonism and schizophrenia.
  • Group 1 metabotropic glutamate receptors are localized in brain regions primarily associated with somatosensory processing, including the dorsal root ganglia, superficial and deep spinal dorsal horn, midbrain reticular formation, somatosensory thalamus, amygdala and cortex.
  • Metabotropic glutamate receptors, particularly mGluRI have been shown ⁇ to be involved in processes of nociception and hyperalgesia.
  • Antibodies raised against mGluRI increase tail flick latencies and reduce the responses of dorsal horn neurones to repeated noxious stimuli (Young et al, Journal of Neuroscience, 18, 10180-10188, 1998).
  • Intrathecal group I agonists cause heat hyperalgesia and increase nociceptive behaviours (Fisher and Coderre, Neuroreport, 9, 1169-1172, 1998).
  • group I mGluRs are involved in more persistent pain conditions since administration of specific mGluRI antibodies reduced cold allodynia following nerve damage (Fundytus et al, Neuroreport, 9, 731 - ⁇ , 1998).
  • Antisense oligonucleotides demonstrate that ablation of the mGluRI receptor attenuates the hyperalgesia and allodynia associated with nerve damage (Fundytus et al, British Journal of ⁇ Pharmacology, 132, 3 ⁇ 4-67, 2001) and attenuates the hyperalgesia and allodynia that occurs as a result of chronic inflammation (Fundytus et al, Pharmacology, Biology and Behaviour, 73, 401-10, 2002).
  • Spinal administration of a group I receptor antagonist will reverse the central sensitisation induced by peripheral capsaicin injection (Neugebauer et al, Journal of Neurophysiology, 82, 272-82, 1999).
  • Group I receptor0 agonists enhance behavioural responses and group I receptor antagonists attenuate behavioural responses in the late phase of the formalin test (Fisher and Coderre, Pain, 68, 255-263, 1996).
  • Cerebral ischemia causes an increased release of glutamate and an increase in5 intracellular calcium which can cause cell death and neuronal degeneration.
  • Compounds, which regulate activity at mGluRI are neuroprotective in animal models of cerebral ischemia (De Vry et al, European Journal of Pharmacology, 428, 203-14, 2001).
  • CNS central nervous system
  • mGluRI receptor antagonists have been shown to inhibit seizures in animal models indicating a likely utility in epilepsy (Chapman et al, European Journal of Pharmacology, 368, 17-24, 1999).
  • Group I receptor antagonists are both neuroprotective and also improve learning performance in this model (Renaud et al, Epilepsia, 43, 1306-1317, 2002) indicating a possible application in the treatment of neurodegenerative disease states such as Alzheimers and dementia (including HIV induced dementia).
  • the compounds of the present invention are therefore potentially useful in the treatment of a wide range of disorders, particularly in the treatment of pain, epilepsy and neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, dementia and stroke.
  • Physiological pain is an important protective mechanism designed to warn of danger from potentially injurious stimuli from the external environment.
  • the system operates through a specific set of primary sensory neurones and is exclusively activated by noxious stimuli via peripheral transducing mechanisms (see Millan, 1999, Prog. Neurobio., 57, 1-164 for a review).
  • These sensory fibres are known as nociceptors and are characteristically small diameter axons with slow conduction velocities. Nociceptors encode the intensity, duration and quality of noxious stimulus and by virtue of their topographically organised projection to the spinal cord, the location of the stimulus.
  • nociceptive nerve fibres of which there are two main types, A-delta fibres (myelinated) and C fibres (non-myelinated).
  • A-delta fibres myelinated
  • C fibres non-myelinated.
  • the activity generated by nociceptor input is transferred, after complex processing in the dorsal horn, either directly or via brain stem relay nuclei, to the ventrobasal thalamus and then on to the cortex, where the sensation of pain is generated.
  • Pain is a feature of many trauma and disease states. When a substantial injury, via disease or trauma, to body tissue occurs the characteristics of nociceptor activation are altered. There is sensitisation in the periphery, locally around the injury and centrally where the nociceptors terminate. This leads to hypersensitivity at the site of damage and in nearby normal tissue. In acute pain these mechanisms can be useful, allowing for repair processes to take place and the hypersensitivity returns to normal once the injury has healed. However, in many chronic pain states, the hypersensitivity far outlasts the healing process and is normally due to nervous system injury.
  • pain can be divided into a number of different areas, because of differing pathophysiology, including nociceptive, inflammatory and neuropathic pain. It should be noted that some ⁇ types of pain have multiple aetiologies and thus can be classified in more than one area, e.g. back pain and cancer pain have both nociceptive and neuropathic components.
  • Nociceptive pain is induced by tissue injury or by intense stimuli with the potential to0 cause injury. Pain afferents are activated by transduction of stimuli by nociceptors at the site of injury and sensitise the spinal cord at the level of their termination. This is then relayed up the spinal tracts to the brain where pain is perceived (Meyer et al., 1994, Textbook of Pain, 13-44).
  • the activation of nociceptors activates two types of afferent nerve fibres. Myelinated A-delta fibres transmit rapidly and are responsible for ⁇ sharp and stabbing pain sensations, whilst unmyelinated C fibres transmit at a slower rate and convey a dull or aching pain.
  • Moderate to severe acute nociceptive pain is a prominent feature of, but is not limited to pain from strains/sprains, post-operative pain (pain following any type of surgical procedure), posttraumatic pain, burns, myocardial infarction, acute pancreatitis, renal colic, cancer pain (which may be tumour related0 pain, e.g. bone pain, headache, facial pain and visceral pain, or associated with cancer therapy, e.g. postchemotherapy syndromes, chronic postsurgical pain syndromes, and post radiation syndromes) and back pain (which may be due to hemiated or ruptured intervertabral discs or abnormalities of the lumber facet joints, sacroiliac joints, paraspinal muscles or the posterior longitudinal ligament).
  • cancer pain which may be tumour related0 pain, e.g. bone pain, headache, facial pain and visceral pain, or associated with cancer therapy, e.g. postchemotherapy syndromes, chronic postsurgical pain syndromes, and post radiation syndromes
  • back pain which may be due to
  • Neuropathic pain is defined as pain initiated or caused by a primary lesion or dysfunction in the nervous system (IASP definition). Nerve damage can be caused by trauma and disease and thus the term 'neuropathic pain' encompasses many disorders with diverse aetiologies. These include but are not limited to, diabetic neuropathy, post herpetic neuralgia, back pain, cancer neuropathy, HIV neuropathy, phantom limb pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, chronic alcoholism, hypothyroidism, trigeminal neuralgia, uremia and vitamin deficiencies. Neuropathic pain is pathological as it has no protective role.
  • neuropathic pain are difficult to treat, as they are often heterogeneous even between patients with the same disease (Woolf & Decosterd, 1999, Pain Supp., 6, S141-S147; Woolf and Mannion, 1999, Lancet, 353, 1969-1964). They include spontaneous pain, which can be continuous, and paroxysmal or abnormal evoked pain, such as hyperalgesia (increased sensitivity to a noxious stimulus) and allodynia (sensitivity to a normally innocuous stimulus).
  • the inflammatory process is a complex series of biochemical and cellular events, activated in response to tissue injury or the presence of foreign substances, which results in swelling and pain (Levine and Taiwo, 1994, Textbook of Pain, 46-56).
  • Arthritic pain is the most common inflammatory pain.
  • Rheumatoid disease is one of the commonest chronic inflammatory conditions in developed countries and rheumatoid arthritis is a common cause of disability.
  • the exact aetiology of rheumatoid arthritis is unknown, but current hypotheses suggest that both genetic and microbiological factors may be important (Grennan & Jayson, 1994, Textbook of Pain, 397-407).
  • the viscera encompass the organs of the abdominal cavity. These organs include the sex organs, spleen and part of the digestive system. Pain associated with the viscera can be divided into digestive visceral pain and non-digestive visceral pain.
  • Commonly encountered gastrointestinal (Gl) disorders include functional bowel disorder (FBD) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). These Gl disorders include a wide range of disease states that are currently only moderately controlled, including, in respect of FBD, gastro-esophageal reflux, dyspepsia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional abdominal pain syndrome (FAPS), and, in respect of IBD, Crohn's disease, ileitis and ulcerative colitis, which all regularly produce visceral pain.
  • Other types of visceral pain include the pain associated with dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain, cystitis and pancreatitis.
  • the compounds of the present invention are potentially useful in the treatment of all kinds of pain, particularly nociceptive pain.
  • Alzheimer's disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, anxiety, brain edema, cerebral deficits subsequent to cardiac bypass surgery and grafting, cerebral ischaemia, cognitive disorders, convulsions, dementia (including HIV-induced dementia), depression, drug intoxication, drug-tolerance and withdrawal, emesis, epilepsy, head trauma, Huntington's chorea, hypoglycaemic neuronal damage, inherited ataxias, metabolic derangement, muscular spasms, ocular damage, Parkinson's disease, perinatal hypoxia, psychosis including schizophrenia and bipolar disorder), post-traumatic stress disorder, retinopathy, spasticity, spinal cord lesions due to trauma or infarction/ischaemia or inflamation, stroke, tardive dyskinesia, tremor and urinary incontinence.
  • Alzheimer's disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
  • anxiety brain edema
  • cerebral deficits subsequent to cardiac bypass surgery and grafting cerebral ischaemia
  • cognitive disorders convulsions
  • mGluRI receptor antagonists that are better drug candidates.
  • such compounds should bind potently to the mGluRI receptor whilst showing little affinity for other receptors and show functional activity as antagonists. They should be well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, be relatively metabolically stable and possess favourable pharmacokinetic properties. When targeted selectively against receptors in the central nervous system they should cross the blood brain barrier freely and when targeted selectively against receptors in the peripheral nervous system they should not cross the blood brain barrier. They should be non-toxic and demonstrate few side-effects. Furthermore, the ideal drug candidate will exist in a physical form that is stable, non-hygroscopic and easily formulated.
