Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Platelet Activating Factor (PAF), 1-O-hexadecyl/octadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glyceryl-3-phosphorylcholine, is an ether lipid produced by a variety of different cell types. Recent studies [Snyder, F., Ann. Rep. Med. Chem., 17, 243 (1982); Pinckard, R. N., et. al., J. Adv. Inflammation Res., 4, 147 (1982); O'Flaherty, J. T., et. al., Clin. Rev. Allergy, 1, 353 (1983); Vargaftig, B. B., et. al., J. Trends. Pharmacol. Sci., 4, 341 (1983)] have shown PAF to be an important mediator of allergic disease. When injected into mammals, PAF induces hemodynamic and hematological changes including hypotension, platelet aggregation, neutropenia, disseminated intravascular coagulation, increases in vascular permeability, bronchoconstriction, tissue injury (hypoxia and necrosis) and eventually death (reviewed by Cammussi, G. Kidney Int. 29, 469, (1986). In recent years, it has been postulated that PAF is the mediator of tissue injury in mammals undergoing endotoxic shock due to bacterial sepsis (Terashita, Z., Y. Imura, K. Nishikawa and S. Sumida 1985, Eur. J. Pharmacol. 109:257-261; Doebber, T. W., M. S. Wu, J. C. Robbins, B. M. Choy, M. N. Chang and T. Y. Shen 1985, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Comm. 127:799-808; Inarrea, P., Gomez-Cambronero, J. Pascual, M. del Carmen Ponte, L. Hernando and M. Sanchez-Crespo. 1985, Immunopharmacology, 9:45-52). These studies, in mammals, have shown that PAF is produced in large amounts when the said mammal has been treated with endotoxin. In addition, mammals undergoing endotoxic shock exhibit all of the clinical symptoms associated with the administration of PAF. In addition, PAF is implicated in asthma, respiratory distress syndrome, lung edema and other inflammatory and cardiovascular diseases.
The compounds of the present invention have proven to be specific inhibitors of the biological effects of PAF and are consequently useful for the treatment of asthma, anaphylactic and septic (endotoxic) shock, psoriasis, bowel necrosis, adult respiratory distress syndrome, transplant rejection, thrombosis, stroke, cardiac anaphylaxis and cancer.
Concurrently, with the realization that PAF is an important mediator of inflammatory diseases in mammals, a number of structurally different antagonists of PAF have been developed. References to some of these antagonists are listed hereinbelow.

The compounds of this invention are tested for pharmacological activity as described in the following tests.
Platelet Activating Factor Antagonism In Vitro
Test compounds are evaluated as PAF receptor antagonists in vitro by measuring inhibition of PAF (platelet activating factor) induced platelet aggregation. Platelet aggregation is measured by a modification of the method described in A. Wissner, et. al., J. Med. Chem., 27 1174, 1984.
Approximately 120-240 ml of blood is collected by cardiac puncture from unanesthetized male New Zealand White rabbits (Whaley's Summit View Farms, Belvedere, NJ) with the use of 3.2% sodium citrate anticoagulant (1 part of citrate/10 parts of blood). All syringes and pipets are plastic. The blood is gently mixed and immediately centrifuged at 800 rpm for 10-15 minutes at room temperature to recover the platelet rich plasma (PRP). Platelet poor plasma (PPP) is prepared by centrifuging PRP at 2800 rpm for 10 minutes at room temperature.
Dilutions (1:3000) of PRP in Isoton, diluent are made and platelet counts are determined on a Coulter Thrombocounter which is standardized with platelet reference standards (Interscience Platelet Control, Portland, OR). PRP platelet counts are adjusted to approximately 400,000-500,000 platelets/11 by the addition of PPP.
L-PAF (Platelet Activating Factor) is obtained from Calbiochem. A stock solution of 1-2 E-3M is prepared in 10% ethanol in water or 100% methanol and serial working dilutions are made using saline. 1-2 E-3M stock solutions of test compounds are prepared in 100% methanol and serially diluted in PBS. Sonication of samples before testing in biological screens assists in the solubility of compounds in the liquid medium. All solutions are made up in plastic tubes, stored on ice and protected from heat and light. Solutions are prepared fresh or frozen at -20.degree. C. and used within 48 hours.
Incubation mixtures consisted of 400 ll PRP, 50 ll of saline diluent or test compound and 50 ll of PAF agonist. More specifically, 400 ll of PRP is stabilized in a cuvette for 1-2 minutes at 37.degree. C. in the aggregometer to achieve a stable baseline, then 50 ll of saline or test compound is added and incubated for 5 minutes before addition of the challenge concentration of PAF. A submaximal concentration is determined from the dose response curve for PAF for that experiment. In general, the challenge concentration is 5E-8 or 1E-7M. Aggregation is monitored for 5 minutes. Samples containing test compound or diluent are run simultaneously for comparison. Test compounds are initially evaluated at a screening concentration of 1E-5M. Those producing .gtoreq.50% inhibition of the magnitude of aggregation at 1E-5M are then reevaluated at several final concentrations ranging from 1E-8M to 5E-5M and IC50 values are determined from the dose response curve.
The recording equipment consists of a dual channel Chronolog aggregometer connected to a dual channel 10 MV full scale deflection Omniscribe chart recorder (Houston Instruments). The chart recorder is calibrated daily with the use of a suspension of Bio-Rad latex beads (S-X 12 400 mesh) which has a density slightly greater than rabbit PRP. The bead suspension is used to set the 0% light transmission mark and clear water is used to set the 100% light transmission mark. These limits defined a full scale deflection. The aggregation traces are analyzed by a digitizing method (C. Kohler and B. Zoltan, J. Pharm. Methods, 12, 113, 1984) with x, y coordinate data stored in a computer file. A suitable program computes parameters of interest such as the magnitude of aggregation.
The results of tests on representative compounds of this invention appear in Table I.
PAF Induced Lethality in Mice
PAF given I.V. to mice causes an immediate hypotensive shock leading to death in 1 hour or less. Compounds are given intraperitoneally at 1/2 hour prior to the PAF challenge. Animals alive after 2 hours are counted and the activity of test compounds expressed as % survival corrected for any control (saline treated) animals which survived the PAF challenge. Results of this assay appear in Table II.
Endotoxin Induced Shock and Mortality in Mice
Endotoxin administration produces a shocklike state characterized by vascular permeability changes, hypotension, neutropenia, multiple organ damage and death. The major mediators released after endotoxin injection are TNF (tumor necrosis factor), PAF (platelet activating factor) and IL-1 (interleukin I). PAF administration mimics the signs and symptoms of endotoxin induced shock and death and endotoxin also induces the release of PAF. Therefore, the effects of endotoxin should be blocked with a PAF antagonist.
Male Balb/c mice (approximately 20 g) are obtained from Charles River Laboratories and used after a three-week acclimation period. Animals are given (ip) test compound dissolved in saline or water (sonicated and heated) at different time intervals prior to and after the ip injection of endotoxin (usually 2 hours before LPS endotoxin, and 3-4 hours after). Sigma E. Coli endotoxin, 0111:B4, phenol extraction, catalog #L2630 is used for these studies.
For the acute lethality test, the endotoxin dose is determined from dose-response titrations and adjusted to a dose that is lethal for 80-90% (LD.sub.80 -LD.sub.90) of the mice within a 24 hour period. This LD value is approximately 50 mg/kg i.p. The number of survivors in each group (control or treated with test compound) is recorded after 24 hours and the treated groups (receiving test compound and endotoxin) are compared with the untreated, control group (receiving endotoxin only) or saline control (receiving saline and endotoxin). (Table III)
In addition to the utilities described hereinabove, many of the compounds of this invention are useful in the preparation of other compounds of this invention.
The active compounds of the present invention may be orally administered, for example, with an inert diluent, or with an assimilable edible carrier, or they may be enclosed in hard or soft shell capsules, or they may be compressed into tablets, or they may be incorporated directly with the food of the diet. For oral therapeutic administration, these active compounds may be incorporated with excipients and used in the form of tablets, capsules, elixirs, suspensions, syrups and the like. Such compositions and preparations should contain at least 0.1% of active compound. The percentage of the compound in these compositions may, of course, be varied and may conveniently be between about 2% to about 60% of the weight of the unit. The amount of active compound in such therapeutically useful compositions is such that a suitable dosage will be obtained. Preferred compositions according to this invention are prepared so that an oral dosage unit contains between about 1 and 250 mg of active compound.
The tablets, capsules and the like may also contain a binder such as gum tragacanth, acacia, corn starch or gelatin; excipients such as dicalcium phosphate; a disintegrating agent such as corn starch, potato starch, alginic acid; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate; and a sweetening agent such as sucrose, lactose or saccharin. When the dosage unit form is a capsule, it may contain, in addition to materials of the above type, a liquid carrier such as a fatty oil.
Various other materials may be present as coatings or to modify the physical form of the dosage unit. For instance, tablets may be coated with shellac, sugar or both. A syrup or elixir may contain, in addition to active ingredient, sucrose as a sweetening agent, methyl and propylparabens as preservatives, a dye and flavoring such as cherry or orange flavor.
These active compounds may also be administered parenterally. Solutions or suspensions of these active compounds can be prepared in water suitably mixed with a surfactant such as hydroxypropylcellulose. Dispersions can also be prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycols and mixtures thereof in oils. Under ordinary conditions of storage and use, these preparations contain a preservative to prevent the growth of microorganisms.
The pharmaceutical forms suitable for injectable use include sterile aqueous solutions or dispersions and sterile powders for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable solutions or dispersions. In all cases, the form must be sterile and must be fluid to the extent that easy syringability exists. It must be stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage and must be preserved against the contaminating action of microorganisms such as bacterial and fungi. The carrier can be a solvent or dispersions medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (e.g., glycerol, propylene glycol and liquid polyethylene glycol), suitable mixtures thereof, and vegetable oils.
The compounds of this invention may also be administered directly to the airways in the form of an aerosol.
The invention will be further described by the following examples.
