Abstract
The present invention relates to the use of compounds, in which the pharmacophores of quinolone and oxazolidinone are chemically linked together through a linker that is stable under physiological conditions, for the treatment of bacterial infections in acidic environments (pH<7.0). The activity of these compounds is strongly increased at even slightly acidic conditions what makes them especially interesting for the treatment of infections in abscesses or inflamed tissues.

Description
RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. 119(e) to U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 60/420,810 filed Oct. 23, 2002, the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference.
[0002] The present invention describes the use of compounds in which the pharmacophores of quinolone and oxazolidinone are chemically linked together through a linker that is stable under physiological conditions for the treatment of bacterial infections in acidic environments. The activity of these compounds is strongly increased at even slightly acidic conditions in the range of pH 6.5 to 6.8.
[0003] The intensive use of antibiotics has exerted a selective evolutionary pressure on microorganisms to produce genetically based resistance mechanisms. Modern medicine and socio-economic behavior exacerbates the problem of resistance development by creating slow growth situations for pathogenic microbes, e.g. artificial joints-related infections, and by supporting long-term host reservoirs, e.g. in immuno-compromised patients.
[0004] In hospital settings, an increasing number of strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Enterococcus sp., and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, major sources of infections, are becoming multi-drug resistant and therefore difficult if not impossible to treat:
[0005] S. aureus is often -lactam and quinolone resistant. Now even vancomycin-resistance has been observed.
[0006] S. pneumoniae is becoming resistant to penicillin and even to new macrolides.
[0007] Enteroccocci are often quinolone and vancomycin resistant and -lactams were never efficacious against these strains. The only alternative is to use oxazolidinones but these compounds are not bactericidal and the safety margin is rather low. Further, even with these drugs, resistance already appears in clinical practice.
[0008] In addition, microorganisms that are causing persistent infections are increasingly being recognized as causative agents or cofactors of severe chronic diseases like peptic ulcers or heart diseases.
[0009] In contrast to Linezolid and Ciprofloxacin, the activity of the compounds described herein is strongly dependent on the extracellular pH, i.e. the lower the pH, the better the activity. This special effect is explained by an intra-bacterial accumulation of the compound which is dependent on the difference between inside and outside pH. This property contributes to potent antibacterial activity and is of great interest for the treatment of infections involving (slightly) acidic environments as e.g. found in abscesses or inflammated tissues (Konig, C.; Simmen, H. P.; Blaser, J.; Eur. J. Microbiol. Infect. Dis. 1993, 12, 519) or in the strongly acidic environment of Helicobacter pylori-associated chronic gastritis.

Such therapeutically useful agents can be administered by one of the following routes: oral, e.g. as tablets, dragees, coated tablets, pills, semisolids, soft or hard capsules, for example soft and hard gelatine capsules, aqueous or oily solutions, emulsions, suspensions or syrups, parenteral including intravenous, intramuscular and subcutaneous injection, e.g. as an injectable solution or suspension, rectal as suppositories, by inhalation or insufflation, e.g. as a powder formulation, as microcrystals or as a spray (e.g. liquid aerosol), transdermal, for example via an transdermal delivery system (TDS) such as a plaster containg the active ingredient or intranasal. For the production of such tablets, pills, semisolids, coated tablets, dragees and hard, e.g. gelatine, capsules the therapeutically useful product may be mixed with pharmaceutically inert, inorganic or organic excipients as are e.g. lactose, sucrose, glucose, gelatin, malt, silica gel, starch or derivatives thereof, talc, stearinic acid or their salts, dried skim milk, and the like. For the production of soft capsules one may use excipients as are e.g. vegetable, petroleum, animal or synthetic oils, wax, fat, polyols. For the production of liquid solutions, emulsions or suspensions or syrups one may use as excipients e.g. water, alcohols, aqueous saline, aqueous dextrose, polyols, glycerin, lipids, phospholipids, cyclodextrins, vegetable, petroleum, animal or synthetic oils. Especially preferred are lipids and more preferred are phospholipids (preferred of natural origin; especially preferred with a particle size between 300 to 350 nm) preferred in phosphate buffered saline (pH7 to 8, preferred 7.4). For suppositories one may use excipients as are e.g. vegetable, petroleum, animal or synthetic oils, wax, fat and polyols. For aerosol formulations one may use compressed gases suitable for this purpose, as are e.g. oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide. The pharmaceutically useful agents may also contain additives for conservation, stabilisation, e.g. UV stabilizers, emulsifiers, sweetener, aromatisers, salts to change the osmotic pressure, buffers, coating additives and antioxidants.
[0067] A daily dosage per patient of about 1 mg to about 4000 mg especially about 50 mg to 3 g is usual with those of ordinary skill in the art appreciating that the dosage will depend also upon the age, conditions of the mammals, and the kind of diseases being treated or prevented. The daily dosage can be administrated in a single dose or can be divided over several doses. An average single dose of about 50 mg, 100 mg, 250 mg, 500 mg, 1000 mg and 2000 mg can be contemplated.

[0147] Microbiogical Methods
[0148] MICs (minimal inhibitory concentrations) were determined by a microdilution method following NCCLS guidelines, except that IsoSensitest broth (Oxoid; Basingstroke, UK) was used (National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards Methods for Dilution Antimicrobial Susceptibility Tests for Bacteria that Grow Aerobically, 4th ed.; Approved standard: NCCLS Document M7-A4; National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Satandars: Villanova, Pa., USA, 1997). The medium was supplemented with 3% lysed horse blood for fastidious organisms. Serial dilutions in 96-well plates were prepared with the help of a Biomek 2000 robot. The pH of the test medium was varied from 7.8 to 6.4. The bacterial strains used were from the Morphochem collection. Clinical isolates were originally obtained from the Kantonspital Basel, Switzerland, and from other European and US hospitals.
