Definitions

  • the invention relates to 8-amino-2-oxo-1,3-diaza-spiro-[4.5]-decane derivatives, their preparation and use in medicine, particularly in various neurological disorders, including but not limited to pain, neurodegenerative disorders, neuroinflammatory disorders, neuropsychiatric disorders, substance abuse/dependence.
  • Opioid receptors are a group of Gi/o protein-coupled receptors which are widely distributed in the human body.
  • the opioid receptors are currently subdivided into four major classes, i.e. the three classical opioid receptors mu-opioid (MOP) receptor, kappa-opioid (KOP) receptor, and delta-opioid (DOP) receptor as well as the opioid receptor-like (ORL-1) receptor, which was more recently discovered based on its high homology with said classical opioid receptors.
  • MOP mu-opioid
  • KOP kappa-opioid
  • DOP delta-opioid
  • ORL-1 opioid receptor-like receptor
  • ORL-1 receptor After identification of the endogenous ligand of the ORL-1 receptor, known as nociceptin/orphanin FQ, a highly basic 17 amino acid peptide isolated from tissue extracts in 1995, the ORL-1 receptor was renamed “nociceptin opioid peptide receptor” and abbreviated as “NOP-receptor”.
  • the classical opioid receptors (MOP, KOP and DOP) as well as the NOP receptor are widely distributed/expressed in the human body, including in the brain, the spinal cord, on peripheral sensory neurons and the intestinal tract, wherein the distribution pattern differs between the different receptor classes.
  • Nociceptin acts at the molecular and cellular level in very much the same way as opioids. However, its pharmacological effects sometimes differ from, and even oppose those of opioids. NOP-receptor activation translates into a complex pharmacology of pain modulation, which, depending on route of administration, pain model and species involved, leads to either pronociceptive or antinociceptive activity. Furthermore, the NOP receptor system is upregulated under conditions of chronic pain. Systemic administration of selective NOP receptor agonists was found to exert a potent and efficacious analgesia in non-human primate models of acute and inflammatory pain in the absence of side effects.
  • NOP receptors The activation of NOP receptors has been demonstrated to be devoid of reinforcing effects but to inhibit opioid-mediated reward in rodents and non-human primates (Review: Schroeder et al, Br J Pharmacol 2014; 171 (16): 3777-3800, and references therein).
  • NOP receptor agonists might be useful inter alia in the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders (Witkin et al, Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 141 (2014) 283-299; Jenck et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 94, 1997, 14854-14858).
  • the DOP receptor is also implicated to modulate not only pain but also neuropsychiatric disorders (Mabrouk et al, 2014; Pradhan et al., 2011).
  • MOP receptor agonists show only reduced effectiveness under conditions of chronic and neuropathic pain.
  • peripherally restricted opioid receptor ligands that do not easily cross the blood-brain barrier and therefore distribute poorly to the central nervous system (see for instance WO 2015/192039).
  • peripherally acting compounds might combine effective analgesia with limited side-effects.
  • a further approach has been to provide multi-opioid receptor analgesics that modulate more than one of the opioid receptor subtypes to provide additive or synergistic analgesia and/or reduced side effects like abuse liability or tolerance.
  • medicaments which are effective in the treatment of pain and which have advantages compared to the compounds of the prior art.
  • medicaments should contain such a small dose of active ingredient that satisfactory pain therapy can be ensured without the occurrence of intolerable treatment-emergent adverse events.

Description

  • The invention relates to 8-amino-2-oxo-1,3-diaza-spiro-[4.5]-decane derivatives, their preparation and use in medicine, particularly in various neurological disorders, including but not limited to pain, neurodegenerative disorders, neuroinflammatory disorders, neuropsychiatric disorders, substance abuse/dependence.
  • Opioid receptors are a group of Gi/o protein-coupled receptors which are widely distributed in the human body. The opioid receptors are currently subdivided into four major classes, i.e. the three classical opioid receptors mu-opioid (MOP) receptor, kappa-opioid (KOP) receptor, and delta-opioid (DOP) receptor as well as the opioid receptor-like (ORL-1) receptor, which was more recently discovered based on its high homology with said classical opioid receptors. After identification of the endogenous ligand of the ORL-1 receptor, known as nociceptin/orphanin FQ, a highly basic 17 amino acid peptide isolated from tissue extracts in 1995, the ORL-1 receptor was renamed “nociceptin opioid peptide receptor” and abbreviated as “NOP-receptor”.
  • The classical opioid receptors (MOP, KOP and DOP) as well as the NOP receptor are widely distributed/expressed in the human body, including in the brain, the spinal cord, on peripheral sensory neurons and the intestinal tract, wherein the distribution pattern differs between the different receptor classes.
  • Nociceptin acts at the molecular and cellular level in very much the same way as opioids. However, its pharmacological effects sometimes differ from, and even oppose those of opioids. NOP-receptor activation translates into a complex pharmacology of pain modulation, which, depending on route of administration, pain model and species involved, leads to either pronociceptive or antinociceptive activity. Furthermore, the NOP receptor system is upregulated under conditions of chronic pain. Systemic administration of selective NOP receptor agonists was found to exert a potent and efficacious analgesia in non-human primate models of acute and inflammatory pain in the absence of side effects. The activation of NOP receptors has been demonstrated to be devoid of reinforcing effects but to inhibit opioid-mediated reward in rodents and non-human primates (Review: Schroeder et al, Br J Pharmacol 2014; 171 (16): 3777-3800, and references therein).
  • Besides the involvement of the NOP receptor in nociception, results from preclinical experiments suggest that NOP receptor agonists might be useful inter alia in the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders (Witkin et al, Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 141 (2014) 283-299; Jenck et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 94, 1997, 14854-14858). Remarkably, the DOP receptor is also implicated to modulate not only pain but also neuropsychiatric disorders (Mabrouk et al, 2014; Pradhan et al., 2011).
  • Strong opioids acting at the MOP receptor site are widely used to treat moderate to severe acute and chronic pain. However, the therapeutic window of strong opioids is limited by severe side effects such as nausea and vomiting, constipation, dizziness, somnolence, respiratory depression, physical dependence and abuse. Furthermore, it is known that MOP receptor agonists show only reduced effectiveness under conditions of chronic and neuropathic pain.
  • It is known that some of the above mentioned side-effects of strong opioids are mediated by activation of classic opioid-receptors within the central nervous system. Furthermore, peripheral opioid receptors, when activated, can inhibit transmission of nociceptive signals shown in both, clinical and animal studies (Gupta et al., 2001; Kalso et al., 2002; Stein et al., 2003; Zollner et al., 2008).
  • Thus, to avoid CNS-mediated adverse effects after systemic administration, one approach has been to provide peripherally restricted opioid receptor ligands that do not easily cross the blood-brain barrier and therefore distribute poorly to the central nervous system (see for instance WO 2015/192039). Such peripherally acting compounds might combine effective analgesia with limited side-effects.
  • Another approach has been to provide compounds which interact with both the NOP receptor and the MOP receptor. Such compounds have for instance been described in WO 2004/043967, WO 2012/013343 and WO 2009/118168.
  • A further approach has been to provide multi-opioid receptor analgesics that modulate more than one of the opioid receptor subtypes to provide additive or synergistic analgesia and/or reduced side effects like abuse liability or tolerance.
  • On the one hand, it would be desirable to provide analgesics that selectively act on the NOP receptor system but less pronounced on the classic opioid receptor system, especially MOP receptor system, whereas it would be desirable to distinguish between central nervous activity and peripheral nervous activity. On the other hand, it would be desirable to provide analgesics that act on the NOP receptor system and also to a balanced degree on the MOP receptor system, whereas it would be desirable to distinguish between central nervous activity and peripheral nervous activity.
  • There is a need for medicaments which are effective in the treatment of pain and which have advantages compared to the compounds of the prior art. Where possible, such medicaments should contain such a small dose of active ingredient that satisfactory pain therapy can be ensured without the occurrence of intolerable treatment-emergent adverse events.
  • It is an object of the invention to provide pharmacologically active compounds, preferably analgesics that have advantages compared to the prior art.
  • This object has been achieved by the subject-matter of the patent claims.
  • A first aspect of the invention relates to 8-amino-2-oxo-1,3-diaza-spiro-[4.5]-decane derivatives according to general formula (I)

  • Pharmacological Investigations
  • Functional investigation on the human mu-opioid receptor (hMOP), human kappa-opioid receptor (hKOP), human delta-opioid receptor (hDOP), and human nociceptin/orphanin FQ peptide receptor (hNOP)
  • Human Mu-Opioidpeptide (hMOP) Receptor Binding Assay
  • The hMOP receptor binding assay was performed as homogeneous SPA-assay (scintillation proximity assay) using the assay buffer 50 mM TRIS-HCl (pH 7.4) supplemented with 0.052 mg/ml bovine serum albumin (Sigma-Aldrich Co. St. Louis. Mo.). The final assay volume (250 μl/well) included 1 nM of [N-allyl-2.3-3H]naloxone as ligand (PerkinElmer Life Sciences. Inc. Boston. Mass. USA). and either test compound in dilution series or 25 M unlabelled naloxone for determination of unspecific binding. The test compound was diluted with 25% DMSO in H2O to yield a final 0.5% DMSO concentration. which also served as a respective vehicle control. The assay was started by adding wheat germ agglutinin coated SPA beads (GE Healthcare UK Ltd. Buckinghamshire. UK) which had been preloaded with hMOP receptor membranes (PerkinElmer Life Sciences. Inc. Boston. Mass. USA). After incubation for 90 minutes at RT and centrifugation for 20 minutes at 500 rpm the signal rate was measured by means of a 1450 Microbeta Trilux β-counter (PerkinElmer Life Sciences/Wallac. Turku. Finland). Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values reflecting 50% displacement of [3H]naloxone-specific receptor binding were calculated by nonlinear regression analysis and Ki values were calculated by using the Cheng-Prusoff equation. (Cheng and Prusoff. 1973).
  • Human Kappa-Opioidpeptide (hKOP) Receptor Binding Assay
  • The hKOP receptor binding assay is run as homogeneous SPA-assay (scintillation proximity assay) using the assay buffer 50 mM TRIS-HCl (pH 7.4) supplemented with 0.076 mg BSA/ml. The final assay volume of 250 μl per well includes 2 nM of [3H]U69,593 as ligand, and either test compound in dilution series or 100 μM unlabelled naloxone for determination of unspecific binding. The test compound is diluted with 25% DMSO in H2O to yield a final 0.5% DMSO concentration which serves as respective vehicle control, as well. The assays are started by the addition of wheat germ agglutinin coated SPA beads (1 mg SPA beads/250 μl final assay volume per well) which has been preloaded for 15 minutes at room temperature with hKOP receptor membranes (14.8 μg/250 μl final assay volume per well). After short mixing on a mini-shaker, the microtiter plates are covered with a lid and the assay plates are incubated for 90 minutes at room temperature. After this incubation, the microtiter plates are sealed with a topseal and centrifuged for 20 minutes at 500 rpm. The signal rate is measured after a short delay of 5 minutes by means of a 1450 Microbeta Trilux β-counter (PerkinElmer Life Sciences/Wallac, Turku, Finland). Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values reflecting 50% displacement of [3H]U69.593-specific receptor binding are calculated by nonlinear regression analysis and Ki values are calculated by using the Cheng-Prusoff equation, (Cheng and Prusoff, 1973).
  • Human Delta-Opioidpeptide (hDOP) Receptor Binding Assay
  • The hDOP receptor binding assay is performed as homogeneous SPA-assay using the assay buffer 50 mM TRIS-HCl, 5 mM MgCl2 (pH 7.4). The final assay volume (250 μl/well) includes 1 nM of [Tyrosyl-3,5-3H]2-D-Ala-deltorphin II as ligand, and either test compound in dilution series or 10 LM unlabelled naloxone for determination of unspecific binding. The test compound is diluted with 25% DMSO in H2O to yield a final 0.5% DMSO concentration which serves as respective vehicle control, as well. The assays are started by the addition of wheat germ agglutinin coated SPA beads (1 mg SPA beads/250 μl final assay volume per well) which has been preloaded for 15 minutes at room temperature with hDOP receptor membranes (15.2 μg/250 μl final assay volume per well). After short mixing on a mini-shaker, the microtiter plates are covered with a lid and the assay plates are incubated for 120 minutes at room temperature and centrifuged for 20 minutes at 500 rpm. The signal rate is measured by means of a 1450 Microbeta Trilux β-counter (PerkinElmer Life Sciences/Wallac, Turku, Finland). Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values reflecting 50% displacement of [Tyrosyl-3,5-3H]2-D-Ala-deltorphin II-specific receptor binding are calculated by nonlinear regression analysis and Ki values are calculated by using the Cheng-Prusoff equation, (Cheng and Prusoff, 1973).
  • Human Nociceptin/Orphanin FQ Peptide (hNOP) Receptor Binding Assay
  • The hNOP receptor binding assay was performed as homogeneous SPA-assay (scintillation proximity assay) using the assay buffer 50 mM TRIS-HCl. 10 mM MgCl2. 1 mM EDTA (pH 7.4). The final assay volume (250 μl/well) included 0.5 nM of [leucyl-3H]nociceptin as ligand (PerkinElmer Life Sciences. Inc. Boston. Mass. USA). and either test compound in dilution series or 1 M unlabelled nociceptin for determination of unspecific binding. The test compound was diluted with 25% DMSO in H2O to yield a final 0.5% DMSO concentration. which also served as a respective vehicle control. The assay was started by adding wheat germ agglutinin coated SPA beads (GE Healthcare UK Ltd. Buckinghamshire. UK) which had been preloaded with hMOP receptor membranes (PerkinElmer Life Sciences. Inc. Boston. Mass. USA).
  • After incubation for 60 minutes at RT and centrifugation for 20 minutes at 500 rpm the signal rate was measured by means of a 1450 Microbeta Trilux β-counter (PerkinElmer Life Sciences/Wallac. Turku. Finland). Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values reflecting 50% displacement of [3H]nociceptin-specific receptor binding were calculated by nonlinear regression analysis and Ki values were calculated by using the Cheng-Prusoff equation.

  • Protocol for [35S]GTPγS Functional NOP/MOP/KOP/DOP Assays
  • Cell membrane preparations of CHO-K1 cells transfected with the human MOP receptor (Art.-No. RBHOMM) or the human DOP receptor (Art.-No.RBHODM), and HEK293 cells transfected with the human NOP receptor (Art.-No.RBHORLM) or the human KOP receptor (Art.-No. 6110558) are available from PerkinElmer (Waltham, Mass.). Membranes from CHO-K1 cells transfected with the human nociceptin/orphanin FQ peptide (hNOP) receptor (Art.-No. 93-0264C2, DiscoveRx Corporation, Freemont, Calif.) are also used. [35S]GTPγS (Art.-No. NEG030H; Lot-No. #0112, #0913, #1113 calibrated to 46.25 TBq/mmol) is available from PerkinElmer (Waltham, Mass.).
  • The [35S]GTPγS assays are carried out essentially as described by Gillen et al (2000). They are run as homogeneous scintillation proximity (SPA) assays in microtiter luminescence plates, where each well contains 1.5 mg of WGA-coated SPA-beads. To test the agonistic activity of test compounds on recombinant hNOP, hMOP, hDOP, and hKOP receptor expressing cell membranes from CHO-K1 or HEK293 cells, 10 or 5 μg membrane protein per assay are incubated with 0.4 nM [35S]GTPγS and serial concentrations of receptor-specific agonists in buffer containing 20 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 100 mM NaCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM dithiothreitol, 1.28 mM NaN3, and 10 μM GDP for 45 min at room temperature. The microtiter plates are then centrifuged for 10 min at 830 to sediment the SPA beads. The microtiter plates are sealed and the bound radioactivity [cpm] is determined after a delay of 15 min by means of a 1450 Microbeta Trilux (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Mass.).
  • The unstimulated basal binding activity (UBSobs [cpm]) is determined from 12 unstimulated incubates and is set as 100% basal binding. For determination of the potency and the efficacy, the arithmetic mean of the observed total [35S]GTPγS binding (TBobs [cpm]) of all incubates (duplicates) stimulated by the receptor-specific agonists (i.e. N/OFQ, SNC80, DAMGO, or U69,593) are transformed in percent total binding (TBobs [% o]) relative to the basal binding activity (i.e. 100% binding). The potency (EC50) of the respective agonist and its maximal achievable total [35S]GTPγS binding (TBcalc [%]) above its calculated basal binding (UBScalc [%]) are determined from its transformed data (TBobs [%]) by means of nonlinear regression analysis with XLfit for each individual concentration series. Then the difference between the calculated unstimulated [35S]GTPγS binding (UBScalc [%]) and the maximal achievable total [35S]GTPγS binding (TBcalc [%]) by each tested agonist is determined (i.e. B1calc [%]). This difference (B1calc [%]) as a measure of the maximal achievable enhancement of [35S]GTPγS binding by a given agonist is used to calculate the relative efficacy of test compounds versus the maximal achievable enhancement by a receptor-specific full agonist, e.g. N/OFQ (B1calc-N/OFQ [%]) which is set as 100% relative efficacy for the hNOP receptor. Likewise, the percentage efficacies of test compounds at the hDOP, hMOP, or hKOP receptor are determined versus the calculated maximal enhancement of [35S]GTPγS binding by the full agonists SNC80 (B1calc-SNC80 [%]), DAMGO (B1calc-DAMGO [%]) and U69,593 (B1calc-U69,593 [%]) which are set as 100% relative efficacy at each receptor, respectively.
