Description
The present invention relates to purine nucleoside analogs containing an unsaturated carbocyolic ring in place of the sugar residue, pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof, and their use in medical therapy, particularly for the treatment of certain viral infections.
AIDS is an immunosuppressive or immunodestructive disease that predisposes subjects to fatal opportunistic infections. Characteristically, AIDS is associated with a progressive depletion of T-cells, especially the helper-inducer subset bearing the OKT.sup.4 surface marker.
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has been reproducibly isolated from patients with AIDS or with the symptoms that frequently precede AIDS. HIV is cytopathic and appears to preferentially infect and destroy T-cells bearing the OKT.sup.4 marker, and it is now generally recognized that HIV is the etiological agent of AIDS.
Since the discovery that HIV is the etiological agent of AIDS, numerous proposals have been made for anti-HIV chemotherapeutic agents that may be effective in treating AIDS sufferers. Thus, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,724,232 describes 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (which has the approved name zidovudine), its pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives and their use in the treatment of human retrovirus infections including AIDS and associated clinical conditions. Vince et al., Antiviral Research, 9 (1/2), 120 (1988) describes certain carbocyclic nucleoside analogs and their use against HIV. At the Second International Conference on Antiviral Research, Williamsburg, Va., 10-14 April, 1988, (.+-.)-9-(cis-4-(hydroxymethyl)-2-cyclopentenyl)guanine (NSC-614846), also known as carbovir, was disclosed.
Worldwide, hepatitis R virus (HBV) is a viral pathogen of major consequence. It is most common in Asian countries, and prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa. The virus is etiologically associated with primary bepatocellular carcinoma and is thought to cause 80% of the world's liver cancer. In the United States more than ten thousand people are hospitalized for HBV illness each year, an average of 250 die with fulminant disease.
The United States currently contains an estimated pool of 500,000-1 million infectious carriers. Chronic active hepatitis will develop in over 25% of carriers, and often progresses to cirrhosis. It is estimated that 5000 people die from HBV-related cirrhosis each year in the USA, and that perhaps 1000 die from HBV-related liver cancer. Even when a universal HBV vaccine is in place, the need for effective anti-HRV compounds will continue. The large reservoir of persistently infected carriers, estimated at 220 million worldwide, will receive no benefit from vaccination and will continue at high risk for HBV-induced liver disease. This carrier population serves as the source of infection of susceptible individuals perpetuating the instance of disease particularly in endemic areas or high risk groups such as IV drug abusers and homosexuals. Thus, there is a great need for effective antiviral agents, both to control the chronic infection and reduce progression to hepatocellular carcinoma.
Clinical effects of infection with the HRV virus range from headache, fever, malaise, nausea, vomiting, anorexia and abdominal pains. Replication of the virus is usually controlled by the immune response, with a course of recovery lasting weeks or months in humans, but infection may be more severe leading to persistent chronic liver disease as outlined above. In "Viral Infections of Humans" (second edition, Ed., Evans, A.S. (1982) Plenum Publishing Corporation, New York), Chapter 12 describes in detail the etiology of viral hepatitis infections.
Hepatitis B virus (HRV) is a small DNA containing virus which infects humans. It is a member of the class of closely related viruses known as the hepadnaviruses, each member of which selectively infects either mammalian or avian hosts, such as the woodchuck and the duck. Recent insights into the mechanism of replication of the hepadnavirus genome indicate the importance of reverse transcription of an RNA intermediate, suggesting that the reverse transcriptase is a logical chemotherapeutic target.
It has now been discovered that certain purine nucleoside analogues containing an unsaturated carbocyclic ring, as referred to below, are useful for the treatment of viral infections for example hepatitis R and retroviral infections, especially AIDS.

b) Use of a compound according to the invention in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of any of the above-mentioned infections or conditions.
By "a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative" is meant any pharmaceutically or pharmacologically acceptable salt, ester or salt of such ester of a compound according to the invention or any other compound which, upon administration to the recipient, is capable of providing (directly or indirectly) a compound according to the invention, or an antivirally active metabolite or residue thereof.
Preferred esters of the compounds of the invention include carboxylic acid esters in which the non-carbonyl moiety of the ester grouping is selected from straight or branched chain alkyl, e.g. n-propyl, t-butyl, n-butyl, alkoxyalkyl (e.g. methoxymethyl), aralkyl (e.g. benzyl), aryloxyalkyl (e.g. phenoxymethyl), aryl (e.g. phenyl optionally substituted by halogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy or amino); sulfonate esters such as alkyl- or aralkylsulfonyl (e.g. methanesulfonyl); amino acid esters (e.g. L-valyl or L-isoleucyl); and mono-, di- or triphosphate esters. The phosphate esters may be further esterified by, for example, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 alcohol or reactive derivative thereof, or by a 2,3-di(C.sub.6 -C.sub.24)acyl glycerol.
With regard to the above-described esters, unless otherwise specified, any alkyl moiety present advantageously contains 1 to 18 carbon atoms, particularly 1 to 4 carbon atoms. Any aryl moiety present in such esters advantageously comprises a phenyl group. Any reference to any of the above compounds also includes a reference to a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds according to the invention and pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof include base salts, e.g. derived from an appropriate base, such as alkali metal (e.g. sodium), alkaline earth metal (e.g. magnesium) salts, ammonium and NW+.sub.4 (wherein W is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl). Physiologically acceptable salts of a hydrogen atom or an amino group include salts of organic carboxylic acids such as acetic, lactic, tartaric, malic, isethionic, lactobionic and succinic acids; organic sulfonic acids such as methanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic and p-toluenesulfonic acids and inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, sulfuric, phosphoric and sulfamic acids. Physiologically acceptable salts of a compound with a hydroxy group include the anion of said compound in combination with a suitable cation such as Na+, NH.sub.4 +, and NW.sub.4 + (wherein W is a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group).
The above compounds according to the invention and their pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives may be employed in combination with other therapeutic agents for the treatment of the above infections or conditions. Examples of such further therapeutic agents include agents that are effective for the treatment of viral infections or associated conditions such as 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (zidovudine),2',3'-dideoxynucleosides such as 2',3'-dideoxycytidine, 2',3'-dideoxyadenosine and 2',3'-dideoxyinosine, acyclic nucleosides (e.g. acyclovir), interferons such as c-interferon, renal excretion inhibitors such as probenicid, nucleoside transport inhibitors such as dipyridamole, dilazep, mio-, lido- or soluflazine, or hexobendine as well as immunomodulators such as interleukin II and granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factors, soluble CD.sub.4 or genetically engineered derivatives thereof, and phosphonoformic acid. The component compounds of such combination therapy may be administered simultaneously, in either separate or combined formulations, or at different times, e.g. sequentially such that a combined effect is achieved.
The compounds according to the invention, also referred to herein as the active ingredient, may be administered for therapy by any suitable route including oral, rectal, nasal, topical (including buccal and sublingual), vaginal and parenteral (including subcutanecus, intramuscular, intravenous and intradermal). It will be appreciated that the preferred route will vary with the condition and age of the recipient, the nature of the infection and the chosen active ingredient.
In general a suitable dose for each of the above-mentioned conditions (e.g. AIDS) will be in the range of 3.0 to 120 mg per kilogram body weight of the recipient (e.g. a human) per day, preferably in the range of 6 to 90 mg per kilogram body weight per day and most preferably in the range 15 to 60 mg per kilogram body weight per day. The desired dose is preferably presented as two, three, four, five, six or more sub-doses administered at appropriate intervals throughout the day. These sub-doses may be administered in unit dosage forms, for example, containing 10 to 1500 mg, preferably 20 to 1000 mg, and most preferably 50 to 700 mg of active ingredient per unit dosage form.
Ideally the active ingredient should be administered to achieve peak plasma concentrations of the active compound of from about 1 to about 75 .mu.M, preferably about 2 to 50 .mu.M, most preferably about 3 to 30 .mu.M. This may be achieved, for example, by the intravenous injection of a 0.1 to 5% solution of the active ingredient, optionally in saline, or orally administered as a bolus containing about 1 to about 100 mg/kg of the active ingredient. Desirable blood levels may be maintained by a continuous infusion to provide about 0.01 to about 5.0 mg/kg/hour or by intermittent infusions containing about 0.4 to about 15 mg/kg of the active ingredient
While it is possible for the active ingredient to be administered alone it is preferable to present it as a pharmaceutical formulation. The formulations of the present invention comprise at least one active ingredient, as defined above, together with one or more acceptable carriers thereof and optionally other therapeutic agents. Each carrier must be "acceptable" in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not injurious to the patient. Formulations include those suitable for oral, rectal, nasal, topical (including buccal and sublingual), vaginal or parenteral (including subcutanecus, intramuscular, intravenous and intradermal) administration. The formulations may conveniently be presented in unit dosage form and may be prepared by any methods well known in the art of pharmacy. Such methods include the step of bringing into association the active ingredient with the carrier which constitutes one or more accessory ingredients. In general, the formulations are prepared by uniformly and intimately bringing into association the active ingredient with liquid carriers or finely divided solid carriers or both, and then if necessary shaping the product.
Formulations of the present invention suitable for oral administration may be presented as discrete units such as capsules, cachets or tablets each containing a predetermined amount of the active ingredient; as a powder or granules; as a solution or a suspension in an aqueous or non-aqueous liquid; or as an oil-in-water liquid emulsion or a water-in-oil liquid emulsion. The active ingredient may also be presented as a bolus, electuary or paste.
A tablet may be made by compression or molding, optionally with one or more accessory ingredients. Compressed tablets may be prepared by compressing in a suitable machine the active ingredient in a free-flowing form such as a powder or granules, optionally mixed with a binder (e.g. povidone, gelatin, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose), lubricant, inert diluent, preservative, disintegrant (e.g. sodium starch glycollate, cross-linked povidone, cross-linked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose) surface-active or dispersing agent. Molded tablets may be made by molding in a suitable machine a mixture of the powdered compound moistened with an inert liquid diluent. The tablets may optionally be coated or scored and may be formulated so as to provide slow or controlled release of the active ingredient therein using, for example, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose in varying proportions to provide the desired release profile. Tablets may optionally be provided with an enteric coating, to provide release in parts of the gut other than the stomach. This is particularly advantageous for purine nucleoside derivatives as such compounds are susceptible to acid hydrolysis.
Formulations suitable for topical administration in the mouth include lozenges comprising the active ingredient in a flavored basis, usually sucrose and acacia or tragacanth; pastilles comprising the active ingredient in an inert basis such as gelatin and glycerin, or sucrose and acacia; and mouthwashes comprising the active ingredient in a suitable liquid carrier.
Formulations for rectal administration may be presented as a suppository with a suitable base comprising for example cocoa butter or a salicylate.
Formulations suitable for vaginal administration may be presented as pessaries, tampons, creams, gels, pastes, foams or spray formulations containing in addition to the active ingredient such carriers as are known in the art to be appropriate.
Formulations suitable for parenteral administration include aqueous and non-aqueous isotonic sterile injection solutions which may contain anti-oxidants, buffers, bacteriostats and solutes which render the formulation isotonic with the blood of the intended recipient; and aqueous and non-aqueous sterile suspensions which may include suspending agents and thickening agents. The formulation may be presented in unit-dose or multidose sealed containers, for example, ampules and vials, and may be stored in a freeze-dried (lyophilized) condition requiring only the addition of the sterile liquid carrier, for example water for injections, immediately prior to use. Extemporaneous injection solutions and suspensions may be prepared from sterile powders, granules and tablets of the kind previously described.
Preferred unit dosage formulations are those containing a daily dose or unit, daily sub-dose, as herein above recited, or an appropriate fraction thereof, of an active ingredient.
The compounds according to the invention may also be presented for use in the form of veterinary formulations, which may be prepared, for example, by methods that are conventional in the art.
It should be understood that in addition to the ingredients particularly mentioned above the formulations of this invention may include other agents conventional in the art having regard to the type of formulation in question, for example, those suitable for oral administration may include such further agents as sweeteners, thickeners and flavoring agents.
The present invention further includes a process for the preparation of a compound according to the invention and pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof which comprises either:
A) treating a compound of formula (II) ##STR5## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.3 are as hereinbefore defined and Z represents a precursor group for the said R.sup.2 group with an agent or under conditions serving to convert the precursor Z group to the desired R.sup.2 group; or Z represents a thio group onto which may be substituted an appropriate group to form a compound of formula (I) or of formula (Ia) wherein R.sup.2 is a substituted thio group or;
B) reacting a compound of formula (III) ##STR6## (wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are hereinbefore defined) or a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof, with an agent serving to effect formation of the imidazole ring in the desired compound of formula (I) or of formula (Ia); or
i) where a compound of formula (I) or of formula (Ia) Is formed, converting the said compound to a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof; or
ii) where a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative of a compound of formula (I) or of formula (Ia) is formed, converting the said derivative to the parent compound of formula (I) or of formula (Ia) or to a further such derivative.
Process A) above may be carried out in conventional manner, for example, by treatment of a compound of formula (II) in which Z represents a leaving group (e.g. a halo such as a chloro group) with, for example, an alkali metal (e.g. sodium) or alkali metal hydride (e.g. sodium hydride) and an appropriate alcohol at reflux or a temperature greater than 50.degree. C. preferably in an organic solvent.
Alternatively the compound of formula (II) may be treated with an appropriate amine or amino hydrochloride to introduce a substituted amino group as defined above at reflux or at a temperature greater than 50.degree. C. preferably in the presence of an organic solvent, for example methanol, ethanol. Alternatively, a compound of formula (II) wherein Z is a thio group may be treated with an appropriate halide under nitrogen.
Process B) may be carried out, for example, by reacting a compound of formula (III) with formic acid or a reactive formic acid derivative (e.g. triethylorthoformale or diethoxymethyl acetate) in a solvent such as a dimethylacetamide or dimethylformamide at an elevated temperature, preferably at 75-90.degree. C. This reaction is conveniently effected by the addition of slightly more than one equivalent of a strong anhydrous acid, e.g. with 1.1 equivalents of ethanesulfonic acid per equivalent of compound of formula (III), in which case lower temperatures (e.g., 25.degree. C.) are used.
In process A) the starting material of formula (II) may be prepared, for example, by firstly cyclizing a compound of formula (III) above in an analogous manner to that described for process B) above.
Alternatively, (1R,4S)-9-(4-hydroxymethyl-2-cyclopentenyl)guanine, prepared, e.g. as described in Australian patent application No. AU-A-28671/89 (incorporated herein by reference) from aristeromycin, may be converted to compounds of formula (I) or of formula Ia).
Other reagents may be useful for cyclisation of compounds of formula (III) to give compounds of formula (I) or of formula (Ia) where R.sup.3 is not hydrogen. For example triethyl or trimethylorthoacetate with acetic anhydride at 70-120.degree. C. for several hours gives R.sub.3 .dbd.CH.sub.3 (see H. C. Koppel and R. K. Robins, J. Org. Chem. 1958. 1457), R.sub.3 .dbd.NH.sub.2 may be obtained by cyclisation with ethoxycarbonyl isothiocyanate (see R. Esmail and F. Kurzer, Synthesis 1975, 301; L. B Towsend, et al., J. Heterocyclic Chem. 1984, 21, 1245). This aqueous sodium hydroxide) to R.sup.3 =NHO.sub.2. Cyclization with potassium ethylxanthate (W. T. Stolle, J. C. Sih, R.S.P. Hsi, J. Label. Compound Radiopharm. 1988, 891) In ethanol at 80.degree. C. gives R.sup.3 =SH. Alkylation of the SH with alkyl halides and base (e.g. potassium carbonate in DMF) gives R.sup.3 .dbd.SMe, SEt.
A compound of formula (I) or of formula (Ia) may be converted into a pharmaceutically acceptable ester by reaction with an appropriate esterifying agent, e.g. an acid halide or anhydride. The compound of formula (I) or of formula (Ia), including esters thereof, may be converted into pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof in conventional manner, e.g. by treatment with an appropriate acid. An ester or salt of a compound of formula (I) or of formula (Ia) may be converted into the parent compound, e.g. by hydrolysis.
The enantiomers of the compounds of formula (I) or of formula (Ia) may be resolved or isolated in conventional manner, e.g. by chromatographic separation or diastereomeric esters prepared by acylation of the hydroxyl on the cyclopentenyl moiety with appropriate optically active carboxylic acid derivatives as, e.g., with naproxen (J. Org. Chem. 1986, 51, 1287). The cyclopentenyl precursors of the compounds of formula (III) may also be resolved by fractional crystallization of salts formed with optically active carboxylic acids (e.g. dibenzoyl-D-tar-taric acid). Alternatively, enzymatic resolution may be achieved as in J. Med. Chem. 1987, 30, 746 and J. Med. Chem. 1985, 28, 1385.
The following Examples are intended for illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. The term `active ingredient` as used in the Examples means a compound of formula (I) or of formula (Ia) or a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof.
EXAMPLE 1
(+)-cis-4-[(2-Amino-4-chloro-6-pyrimidinyl)amino]-2-cyclopentene-1-methanol
cis-4-Acetamidocyclopent-2-enemethyl acetate (U.S. Pat. No. 4,268,672) (14.88 g, 0.073 mol) and barium hydroxide octahydrate (46.19 g, 0.146 mol) were refluxed in water (300 mL) under nitrogen for 18 hours. The resulting solution was neutralized with carbon dioxide. The precipitate was washed with water, then ethanol. The combined filtrate-wash was evaporated to a syrup (11.16 g) which was condensed with 2-amino-4,6-dichlorpyrimidine (23.91 g, 0.146 mol) and triethylamine (30.5 mL, 0.219 mol) in refluxing 1-butanol (100 mL) for 1.5 hours. After addition of 1 N NaOH (73 mL), the resulting mixture was evaporated to dryness and the residual solid slurried in CHCl.sub.3 (200 mL).

Antiviral Activity
The compounds of Examples 14 and 16 were tested for anti-HIV activity in MT.sub.4 cells according to the method described by Averett, D. R., J. Virol Methods. 1989, 23, 263-276 and were found to have IC.sub.50 values of 24 .mu.M and 15 .mu.M, respectively.
TOXICITY DATA
Determination of Growth Inhibition of Uninfected Mammalian Cells
The capability of candidate compounds to inhibit the growth of D98 cells (human) and L cells (purine) was measured by determination of cell number following three days exposure of a standard number of cells to various dilutions of compound (Rideout, J. L., Krenitsky, T. A., Koszalka, G. W., Cohn, N. K., Chao, E. Y. Elion, G. B., Latter, V. S., and Williams, R. B. (1982) J. Med Chem. 25: 1040-1044). The cell number was then compared to the number obtained in the absence of compound. Cell enumeration was performed by either direct particle counts following trypsinization of the monolayer, or by spectrophotometric determination of the amount of vital stain taken up by the cells. Comparable results were obtained with both methods.
Data Analysis
The concentration of compound resulting in 50% of control values (IC.sub.50) was calculated either by direct interpolation from graphs of the log of the compound concentration versus the percent of control value, or from a computer program which analyses the data according to the same algorithm. Data in the range of 20% to 80% of control were used in these calculations. All compounds were tested in D-98 cells and found to have an IC.sub.50 value of >100 .mu.m.
