Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a combination of two or more pharmaceutically active substances for use in the treatment of respiratory diseases (for example chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma) wherein one of the pharmaceutically active substances is N-cyclohexyl-N-(2-(2-(5-hydroxy-3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H- benzo[b][l,4]oxazin-8-yl)ethylamino)ethyl)-3-(3-(l-methyl-lH-pyrazol-4- yl)phenethoxy)propanamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
  • COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
  • Respiratory diseases include Acute Lung Injury, Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), occupational lung disease, lung cancer, tuberculosis, fibrosis, pneumoconiosis, pneumonia, emphysema, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and asthma.
  • ARDS Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
  • COPD Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
  • Asthma is generally defined as an inflammatory disorder of the airways with clinical symptoms arising from intermittent airflow obstruction. It is characterised clinically by paroxysms of wheezing, dyspnea and cough. It is a chronic disabling disorder that appears to be increasing in prevalence and severity. It is estimated that 15% of children and 5% of adults in the population of developed countries suffer from asthma. Therapy should therefore be aimed at controlling symptoms so that normal life is possible and at the same time provide basis for treating the underlying inflammation.
  • COPD is a term which refers to a large group of lung diseases which can interfere with normal breathing.
  • Current clinical guidelines define COPD as a disease state characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible.
  • the airflow limitation is usually both progressive and associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles and gases.
  • the most important contributory source of such particles and gases is tobacco smoke.
  • COPD patients have a variety of symptoms, including cough, shortness of breath, and excessive production of sputum; such symptoms arise from dysfunction of a number of cellular compartments, including neutrophils, macrophages, and epithelial cells.
  • the two most important conditions covered by COPD are chronic bronchitis and emphysema.
  • Chronic bronchitis is a long-standing inflammation of the bronchi which causes increased production of mucous and other changes. The patients' symptoms are cough and expectoration of sputum. Chronic bronchitis can lead to more frequent and severe respiratory infections, narrowing and plugging of the bronchi, difficult breathing and disability.
  • Emphysema is a chronic lung disease which affects the alveoli and/or the ends of the smallest bronchi.
  • the lung loses its elasticity and therefore these areas of the lungs become enlarged. These enlarged areas trap stale air and do not effectively exchange it with fresh air. This results in difficult breathing and may result in insufficient oxygen being delivered to the blood.
  • the predominant symptom in patients with emphysema is shortness of breath.
  • Corticosteroids also known as glucocorticosteroids or glucocorticoids
  • glucocorticoids are potent antiinflammatory agents. Whilst their exact mechanism of action is not clear, the end result of corticosteroid treatment is a decrease in the number, activity and movement of
  • Corticosteroids may also cause reduced shedding of bronchial epithelial lining, vascular permeability, and mucus secretion. Whilst corticosteroid treatment can yield important benefits, the efficacy of these agents is often far from satisfactory, particularly in COPD. Moreover, whilst the use of steroids may lead to therapeutic effects, it is desirable to be able to use steroids in low doses to minimise the occurrence and severity of undesirable side effects that may be associated with regular administration. Recent studies have also highlighted the problem of the acquisition of steroid resistance amongst patients suffering from respiratory diseases.
  • Bronchodilators may be used to alleviate symptoms of respiratory diseases by relaxing the bronchial smooth muscles, reducing airway obstruction, reducing lung hyperinflation and decreasing shortness of breath.
  • Types of bronchodilators in clinical use include ⁇ 2 adrenoceptor agonists, muscarinic receptor antagonists and
  • Bronchodilators are prescribed mainly for symptomatic relief and they are not considered to alter the natural history of respiratory diseases.
  • Combination products comprising a ⁇ 2 adrenoceptor agonist and a corticosteroid are available.
  • One such product is a combination of budesonide and formoterol fumarate (marketed by AstraZeneca under the tradename Symbicort ®), which has proven to be effective in controlling asthma and COPD, and improving quality of life in many patients.

The essential function of the lungs requires a fragile structure with enormous exposure to the environment, including pollutants, microbes, allergens, and carcinogens. Host factors, resulting from interactions of lifestyle choices and genetic composition, influence the response to this exposure. Damage or infection to the lungs can give rise to a wide range of diseases of the respiratory system (or respiratory diseases). A number of these diseases are of great public health importance. Respiratory diseases include Acute Lung Injury, Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), occupational lung disease, lung cancer, tuberculosis, fibrosis, pneumoconiosis, pneumonia, emphysema, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and asthma.
Among the most common of the respiratory diseases is asthma. Asthma is generally defined as an inflammatory disorder of the airways with clinical symptoms arising from intermittent airflow obstruction. It is characterised clinically by paroxysms of wheezing, dyspnea and cough. It is a chronic disabling disorder that appears to be increasing in prevalence and severity. It is estimated that 15% of children and 5% of adults in the population of developed countries suffer from asthma. Therapy should therefore be aimed at controlling symptoms so that normal life is possible and at the same time provide basis for treating the underlying inflammation.
COPD is a term which refers to a large group of lung diseases which can interfere with normal breathing. Current clinical guidelines define COPD as a disease state characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. The airflow limitation is usually both progressive and associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles and gases. The most important contributory source of such particles and gases, at least in the western world, is tobacco smoke. COPD patients have a variety of symptoms, including cough, shortness of breath, and excessive production of sputum; such symptoms arise from dysfunction of a number of cellular compartments, including neutrophils, macrophages, and epithelial cells. The two most important conditions covered by COPD are chronic bronchitis and emphysema.
Chronic bronchitis is a long-standing inflammation of the bronchi which causes increased production of mucous and other changes. The patients' symptoms are cough and expectoration of sputum. Chronic bronchitis can lead to more frequent and severe respiratory infections, narrowing and plugging of the bronchi, difficult breathing and disability.
Emphysema is a chronic lung disease which affects the alveoli and/or the ends of the smallest bronchi. The lung loses its elasticity and therefore these areas of the lungs become enlarged. These enlarged areas trap stale air and do not effectively exchange it with fresh air. This results in difficult breathing and may result in insufficient oxygen being delivered to the blood. The predominant symptom in patients with emphysema is shortness of breath.
Therapeutic agents used in the treatment of respiratory diseases include corticosteroids. Corticosteroids (also known as glucocorticosteroids or glucocorticoids) are potent antiinflammatory agents. Whilst their exact mechanism of action is not clear, the end result of corticosteroid treatment is a decrease in the number, activity and movement of
inflammatory cells into the bronchial submucosa, leading to decreased airway
responsiveness. Corticosteroids may also cause reduced shedding of bronchial epithelial lining, vascular permeability, and mucus secretion. Whilst corticosteroid treatment can yield important benefits, the efficacy of these agents is often far from satisfactory, particularly in COPD. Moreover, whilst the use of steroids may lead to therapeutic effects, it is desirable to be able to use steroids in low doses to minimise the occurrence and severity of undesirable side effects that may be associated with regular administration. Recent studies have also highlighted the problem of the acquisition of steroid resistance amongst patients suffering from respiratory diseases. For example, cigarette smokers with asthma have been found to be insensitive to short term inhaled corticosteroid therapy, but the disparity of the response between smokers and non-smokers appears to be reduced with high dose inhaled corticosteroid (Tomlinson et al., Thorax 2005;60:282-287).
A further class of therapeutic agent used in the treatment of respiratory diseases are bronchodilators. Bronchodilators may be used to alleviate symptoms of respiratory diseases by relaxing the bronchial smooth muscles, reducing airway obstruction, reducing lung hyperinflation and decreasing shortness of breath. Types of bronchodilators in clinical use include β2 adrenoceptor agonists, muscarinic receptor antagonists and
methylxanthines. Bronchodilators are prescribed mainly for symptomatic relief and they are not considered to alter the natural history of respiratory diseases.
N-cyclohexyl-N-(2-(2-(5-hydroxy-3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[b][l,4]oxazin-8- yl)ethylamino)ethyl)-3 -(3 -( 1 -methyl- 1 H-pyrazol-4-yl)phenethoxy)propanamide and its trifluoroacetate salt, hemi-fumaric acid salt, benzenesulfonic acid salt, hydrochloric acid salt, hydrobromic acid salt, methanesulfonic acid salt, benzensulfonic acid salt, p- toluenesulfonic acid salt, maleic acid salt, citric acid salt, l-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid salt, benzoic acid salt, (R)-(-)-mandelic acid salt and L-(+)-tartaric acid salt are β2 adrenoceptor agonists and are disclosed in PCT/SE2009/050749 (published as WO2009/154557). The compound and its salts show at least a 5 -fold selectivity of β2 adrenoceptor agonism over adrenergic alD, adrenergic βΐ and dopamine D2 activities.
Combination products comprising a β2 adrenoceptor agonist and a corticosteroid are available. One such product is a combination of budesonide and formoterol fumarate (marketed by AstraZeneca under the tradename Symbicort ®), which has proven to be effective in controlling asthma and COPD, and improving quality of life in many patients.
In view of the complexity of respiratory diseases such as asthma and COPD, it is unlikely that any one mediator can satisfactorily treat a respiratory disease alone. Moreover, whilst combination treatments using a β2 adrenoceptor agonist and a corticosteroid deliver significant patient benefits, there remains a medical need for new therapies against respiratory diseases such as asthma and COPD, in particular for therapies with disease modifying potential.

In another embodiment the present invention provides a pharmaceutical product wherein the molar ratio of first active ingredient to second active ingredient is from 1 : 1000 to 1000:1 , such as from 1 : 100 to 100: 1, for example from 1 :50 to 50: 1, for example 1 :20 to 20:1. In one embodiment, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical product comprising, in combination, a first active ingredient as defined above, and a second active ingredient as defined above, wherein each active ingredient is formulated for inhaled administration. In a further aspect of this embodiment, the pharmaceutical product is in the form of a pharmaceutical composition comprising the first and second active ingredients in admixture, and which composition is formulated for inhaled administration.
The active ingredients of the present invention are conveniently delivered via oral administration by inhalation to the lung and/or airways in the form of a solution, suspension, aerosol or dry powder (such as an agglomerated or ordered mixture) formulation. For example a metered dose inhaler device may be used to administer the active ingredients, dispersed in a suitable propellant and with or without an additional excipient such as ethanol, a surfactant, lubricant or stabilising agent. A suitable propellant includes a hydrocarbon, chlorofluorocarbon or a hydrofluoroalkane (e.g.
heptafluoroalkane) propellant, or a mixture of any such propellants, for example in a pressurised metered dose inhaler (pMDI). Preferred propellants are PI 34a and P227, each of which may be used alone or in combination with other another propellant and/or surfactant and/or other excipient. A nebulised aqueous suspension or, preferably, solution may also be employed, with or without a suitable pH and/or tonicity adjustment, either as a unit-dose or multi-dose formulation. A suitable device for delivering a dry powder is Turbuhaler®.
The pharmaceutical product of the present invention can, for example, be administered: via an inhaler having the first and second active ingredients in separate chambers of the inhaler such that on administration the active ingredients mix in either the mouthpiece of the inhaler or the mouth of a patient or both (for simultaneous use); or, where the first and second active ingredients are in separate inhalers, via separate inhalers (for separate or sequential use); or the first and second active ingredients are in admixture in an inhaler when the inhaler is supplied to a patient (for simultaneous use).
A dry powder inhaler may be used to administer the active ingredients, alone or in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier (such as lactose), in the later case either as a finely divided powder or as an ordered mixture. The dry powder inhaler may be single dose or multi-dose and may utilise a dry powder or a powder-containing capsule.
Metered dose inhaler, nebuliser and dry powder inhaler devices are well known and a variety of such devices is available.
The combination of the present invention may be used to treat diseases of the respiratory tract such as obstructive diseases of the airways including: asthma, including bronchial, allergic, intrinsic, extrinsic, exercise-induced, drug-induced (including aspirin and NSAID- induced) and dust-induced asthma, both intermittent and persistent and of all severities, and other causes of airway hyper-responsiveness; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); bronchitis, including infectious and eosinophilic bronchitis; emphysema;
bronchiectasis; cystic fibrosis; sarcoidosis; farmer's lung and related diseases;
hypersensitivity pneumonitis; lung fibrosis, including cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis, idiopathic interstitial pneumonias, fibrosis complicating anti-neoplastic therapy and chronic infection, including tuberculosis and aspergillosis and other fungal infections; complications of lung transplantation; vasculitic and thrombotic disorders of the lung vasculature, and pulmonary hypertension; antitussive activity including treatment of chronic cough associated with inflammatory and secretory conditions of the airways, and iatrogenic cough; acute and chronic rhinitis including rhinitis medicamentosa, and vasomotor rhinitis; perennial and seasonal allergic rhinitis including rhinitis nervosa (hay fever); nasal polyposis; acute viral infection including the common cold, and infection due to respiratory syncytial virus, influenza, coronavirus (including SARS) and adenovirus.

In a further aspect the present invention provides the use of a pharmaceutical product, kit or composition as hereinbefore described for the treatment of a respiratory disease, in particular chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, rhinitis, emphysema or bronchitis (such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or asthma; for example chronic obstructive pulmonary disease).
In the context of the present specification, the term "therapy" also includes "prophylaxis" unless there are specific indications to the contrary. The terms "therapeutic" and
"therapeutically" should be construed accordingly. Prophylaxis is expected to be particularly relevant to the treatment of persons who have suffered a previous episode of, or are otherwise considered to be at increased risk of, the condition or disorder in question. Persons at risk of developing a particular condition or disorder generally include those having a family history of the condition or disorder, or those who have been identified by genetic testing or screening to be particularly susceptible to developing the condition or disorder.
For the above-mentioned therapeutic uses the dosage administered will, of course, vary with the compound employed, the mode of administration, the treatment desired and the disorder indicated. For example, the daily dosage of a combination of the invention, as hereinbefore defined, when inhaled, may be in the range from 0.05 micrograms per kilogram body weight ^g/kg) to 100 micrograms per kilogram body weight ^g/kg).
A combination of the invention, as hereinbefore defined, may be used on its own but will generally be administered in the form of a pharmaceutical composition in which a combination of the invention, as hereinbefore defined, is in association with a
pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvant, diluent or carrier. Conventional procedures for the selection and preparation of suitable pharmaceutical formulations are described in, for example, "Pharmaceuticals - The Science of Dosage Form Designs", M. E. Aulton, Churchill Livingstone, 1988.
Depending on the mode of administration, the pharmaceutical composition will for example comprise from 0.05 to 99 %w (per cent by weight), such as from 0.05 to 80 %w, for example from 0.10 to 70 %w, and such as from 0.10 to 50 %w, of active ingredients, all percentages by weight being based on total composition.
The present invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a combination as hereinbefore defined, in association with a pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvant, diluent or carrier.
General Methods
Unless stated otherwise, starting materials were commercially available; all solvents and commercial reagents were of laboratory grade and were used as received and all operations were carried out at ambient temperature, i.e. in the range 17 to 28°C and, where appropriate, under an atmosphere of an inert gas such as nitrogen. 'Microwave' heating refers to heating to constant temperature, using variable power microwave irradiation in a CEM Discover® microwave reactor. Hydrogenation reactions were carried out using a Buchi Peteric® system or a ThalesNano H-Cube® system, as detailed. Concentration of all solutions was carried out by evaporation under reduced pressure (in vacuo), e.g. using a Buchi Rotavapor® rotary evaporator.
Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) was carried out using aluminium- or glass-backed plates coated with silica (particle size <63 μιη; porosity 60 A; surface area -500 m2/g), with a fluorescent (UV254) indicator. Following elution, the plates were visualized by either UV254 irradiation, or development with a suitable indicator, such as iodine (pre- absorbed onto silica), an aqueous solution of potassium permanganate, or an aqueous solution of cerium (IV) ammonium nitrate. Examples of indicator preparations can be found in 'Experimental Organic Chemistry: Preparative and Microscale' 2n Ed. (Harwood, L., Moody, C. and Percy, J.), WileyBlackwell, 1998.
Analytical HPLC was carried out using either a Waters XBridge™ C8 3.5 μιη column eluting with a gradient of acetonitrile in either 0.1% aqueous trifluoroacetic acid, 0.1% aqueous formic acid, 0.1% aqueous ammonium acetate or 0.1% aqueous ammonia; a Waters XBridge™ CI 8 3.5 μιη column with a gradient of acetonitrile in 0.1% aqueous ammonia; a Waters Symmetry™ C18 3.5 μιη column with a gradient of acetonitrile in 0.1%) aqueous trifluoroacetic acid; a Waters Sunfire™ C8 3.5 μιη column with a gradient of acetonitrile in 0.1% aqueous trifluoroacetic acid; or a Phenomenex Gemini™ CI 8 3 μιη column with a gradient of acetonitrile in 0.1% aqueous trifluoroacetic acid. UV spectra of the eluted peaks were measured using a diode array on an Agilant 1100® system, or equivalent.
Medium pressure liquid chromatography (MPLC) on silica (particle size <63 μιη; porosity 60 A; surface area -500 m2/g) was carried out using pre-packed Biotage FLASH
columns or equivalent, e.g. Thomson SINGLE StEP™, Biotage Isolute™, Teledyne Isco RediSep™, or Silicycle UltraPure silica columns at recommended solvent flow rates and sample loadings. Fraction purity was determined by either TLC or analytical HPLC.
Preparative HPLC was carried out using either a Phenomenex Gemini™ CI 8 5 μιη column, a Waters Sunfire™ CI 8 5 μιη column, a Waters XBridge™ C8 5 μιη column or a Waters XTerra™ 5 μιη, unless otherwise detailed, using either acetonitrile in aqueous 0.1- 0.2% trifluoroacetic acid, acetonitrile in aqueous 0.1-0.2% ammonium acetate, or acetonitrile in an aqueous 0.1-0.2% ammonia solution as eluent, as detailed. Fractions were collected following detection by UV spectroscopy at a wavelength such as 220 or 254 nm. Fraction purity was determined by either TLC or analytical HPLC.
1H NMR spectra were recorded on Bruker Avance 600 (600 MHz), a Bruker DRX 500 (500 MHz) or a Varian Unitylnova 500 MHz, 400 MHz or 300 MHz instrument. Either the central peaks of chloroform-<i (CDC13; 5H 7.27 ppm), dimethylsulfoxide-^ (d6-DMSO; 5H 2.50 ppm) or methanol-^ (CD3OD; 5H 3.31 ppm), or an internal standard of tetramethylsilane (TMS; δΗ 0.00 ppm) were used as references. Mass spectra were recorded on an Agilent MSD (+ve and -ve APCI and/or electrospray (e.g. in multimode)) following analytical HPLC.
XRPD was carried out on PANalytical CubiX PRO machine in 0 - 0 configuration over the scan range 2° to 40° 20 with 100-second exposure per 0.02° increment. The X-rays were generated by a copper long-fine focus tube operated at 45kV and 40mA. The wavelength of the copper X-rays was 1.5418 A . The Data was collected on zero background holders on which ~ 2mg of the compound was placed. The holder was made from a single crystal of silicon, which had been cut along a non-diffracting plane and then polished on an optically flat finish. The X-rays incident upon this surface were negated by Bragg extinction.
DSC thermograms were measured using a TA Q1000 Differential Scanning Calorimeter, with aluminium pans and pierced lids. The sample weights varied between 0.3 to 5mg. The procedure was carried out under a flow of nitrogen gas (50ml/min) and the temperature studied from 25 to 300°C at a constant rate of temperature increase of 10°C per minute.
All other processes were carried out using standard laboratory techniques, e.g. as detailed in 'Experimental Organic Chemistry: Preparative and Microscale' 2nd Ed. (Harwood, L., Moody, C. and Percy, J.), WileyBlackwell, 1998.

Procedure A
(R)- 1 -(4-Fluorophenethyl)-3 -((S)-2-phenyl-2-(piperidin- 1 -yl)propanoyloxy)- 1 - azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane bromide salt (Preparation 4) (0.6 g) prepared as described in WO2008/075005 (Example 44) was dissolved in dichloromethane (50 mL) and shaken with a solution of sodium 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (3.1 g) in water (100 mL), in three equal portions (-33 mL). The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate, filtered and evaporated to dryness. The white foam was dissolved in hot acetoniltrile (~5 mL) and allowed to cool to RT with stirring for 3 days. A white solid formed which was collected by filtration, washed with cold acetonitrile (~2 mL) and dried in vacuo at 60°C for 2 days to yield the product (0.490 g).

Procedure B
A solution of sodium p-toluenesulfonate (26.97 g) in water (300 mL; 16.65 moles) was prepared. A 500 mL jacketed vessel was charged with (i?)-l-(4-fluorophenethyl)-3-((5)-2- phenyl-2-(piperidin- 1 -yl)propanoyloxy)- 1 -azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane bromide
(Intermediate 5) (15.00 g). Butanenitrile (225 mL) and half of the sodium tosylate solution were added to the reaction vessel. The vessel was then stirred and heated to 35°C. When the vessel contents reached 35°C and were adequately mixed the stirring was stopped and the phases allowed to settle. The lower aqueous phase was removed and discarded. The second half of the sodium tosylate solution was added and the vessel contents heated to 35°C with stirring. When the vessel contents reached 35°C and were adequately mixed the stirring was stopped and the phases allowed to settle. The lower aqueous phase was removed and discarded. Water (75 mL) was added and the mixture heated to 70°C. When the vessel contents reached 70°C and were adequately mixed the stirring was stopped and the phases allowed to settle. The lower aqueous phase was removed and discarded. The hot organic phase was filtered into a clean vessel. The original vessel was washed with butanenitrile (30 mL) and this solvent was added to the filtrate via the filter into the clean vessel. The wet organic solution was distilled in order to azeodry it (120-150mbar - vessel jacket at 80°C). After ca. 60 mL of solvent had been distilled a precipitate was observed; contents were at 48°C. In total, 1 10 mL of solvent (10 mL water: 100 mL butanenitrile) was collected. At this point the vacuum was released and the vessel contents warmed to 75°C. Acetonitrile (45 mL) was added and the vessel contents re -heated to 75°C (not all material dissolved). More acetonitrile (45 mL) was added and the vessel contents re-heated to 75°C (all material dissolved). The solution was cooled to 5°C over 120 minutes (precipitation started at 65°C). With the vessel contents at 5°C the product was collected by filtration, washed with cold (5°C) butanenitrile (30 mL) and pulled as dry as possible on the filter to give 15.27 g of solid. This solid was left open in a fume cupboard overnight to give (R)-l- (4-fluorophenethyl)-3-((5)-2-phenyl-2-(piperidin- 1 -yl)propanoyloxy)- 1 - azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane 4-methylbenzenesulphonate (15.22 g). The ratio of quaternary species to tosylate was determined as 1 : 1.01 by 400MHz 1HNMR using a 30s relaxation delay.

(R)- 1 -(4-Fluorophenethyl)-3 -((S)-2-phenyl-2-(piperidin- 1 -yl)propanoyloxy)- 1 - azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane 4-methylbenzenesulphonate (7.50 g) and acetonitrile (90.00 mL) were charged to a vessel. The mixture was heated to 80°C and the resulting solution held at 80°C for 30mins. The mixture was then cooled to 65°C over 20 minutes. The solution was seeded with seed crystals of (i?)-l-(4-fluorophenethyl)-3-((S)-2-phenyl-2- (piperidin-l-yl)propanoyloxy)-l-azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane 4-methylbenzenesulphonate (6mg) and stirred at 65°C for 1 hour. The reaction was then cooled to 5°C over 10 hours and stirred at 5°C for 6 hours. The solid product was then isolated by filtration, washing the filter cake with acetonitrile (15.00 mL). The product was then dried under vacuum at 45°C to yield (i?)-l-(4-fluorophenethyl)-3-((5)-2-phenyl-2-(piperidin-l-yl)propanoyloxy)- l-azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane 4-methylbenzenesulphonate as a white solid (6.6g).

Instrument Details:
X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD) - PANalytical X'Pert machine in 20 - 0 configuration or a PANalytical Cubix machine in 0 - 0 configuration over the scan range 2° to 40° 20 with 100-second exposure per 0.02° increment. The X-rays were generated by a copper long-fine focus tube operated at 45kV and 40mA. The wavelength of the copper X-rays was 1.5418 A. The Data was collected on zero background holders on which ~ 2mg of the compound was placed. The holder was made from a single crystal of silicon, which had been cut along a non-diffracting plane and then polished on an optically flat finish. The X- rays incident upon this surface were negated by Bragg extinction.
Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) thermograms were measured using a TA Q1000 Differential Scanning Calorimeter, with aluminium pans and pierced lids. The sample weights varied between 0.5 to 5mg. The procedure was carried out under a flow of nitrogen gas (50mL/min) and the temperature studied from 30 to 230°C at a constant rate of temperature increase of 10°C per minute. Gravimetric Vapour Sorption (GVS) profiles were measured using a Surface
Measurements Systems Dynamic Vapour Sorption DVS-1 or a DVS Advantage instrument. The solid sample ca. l-5mg was placed into a glass vessel and the weight of the sample was recorded during a dual cycle step method (40 to 90 to 0 to 90 to 0% relative humidity (RH), in steps of 10% RH).
A sample of material obtained by Preparation 11 as described herein above was analysed by XRPD (PANalytical X'Pert or Cubix system), GVS and DSC. The melting temperature as determined by DSC was found to be 189°C (onset) (±2°C). GVS determination gave 0.1% weight increase (%w/w) at 80% Relative Humidity (±0.2%).

Adrenergic 32 mediated cAMP production
Cell preparation
H292 cells were grown in 225cm2 flasks incubator at 37°C, 5% C02 in RPMI medium containing, 10% (v/v) FBS (foetal bovine serum) and 2 mM L-glutamine.
Experimental Method
Adherent H292 cells were removed from tissue culture flasks by treatment with
Accutase™ cell detachment solution for 15 min. Flasks were incubated for 15 min in a humidified incubator at 37°C, 5% C02. Detached cells were re-suspended in RPMI media (containing 10% (v/v) FBS and 2 mM L-glutamine) at 1 x 106 cells per mL. 10000 cells in 100 were added to each well of a tissue-culture-treated 96-well plate and the cells incubated overnight in a humidified incubator at 37°C, 5% C02. The culture media was removed and cells were washed twice with 100 assay buffer and replaced with 50 assay buffer (HBSS solution containing lOmM HEPES pH7.4 and 5 mM glucose). Cells were rested at room temperature for 20 min after which time 25 μΐ^ of rolipram (1.2 mM made up in assay buffer containing 2.4% (v/v) dimethylsulphoxide) was added. Cells were incubated with rolipram for 10 min after which time test compounds were added and the cells were incubated for 60 min at room temperature. The final rolipram concentration in the assay was 300 μΜ and final vehicle concentration was 1.6% (v/v) dimethylsulphoxide. The reaction was stopped by removing supernatants, washing once with 100 μί assay buffer and replacing with 50 μΐ^ lysis buffer. The cell monolayer was frozen at -80°C for 30 min (or overnight).
AlphaScreen™ cAMP detection
The concentration of cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate) in the cell lysate was determined using AlphaScreen™ methodology. The frozen cell plate was thawed for 20 min on a plate shaker then 10 μί of the cell lysate was transferred to a 96-well white plate. 40 [iL of mixed AlphaScreen™ detection beads pre-incubated with biotinylated cAMP, was added to each well and the plate incubated at room temperature for 10 h in the dark. The AlphaScreen™ signal was measured using an En Vision spectrophotometer (Perkin- Elmer Inc.) with the recommended manufacturer's settings. cAMP concentrations were determined by reference to a calibration curve determined in the same experiment using standard cAMP concentrations. Concentration response curves for agonists were constructed and data was fitted to a four parameter logistic equation to determine both the pEC5o and Intrinsic Activity. Intrinsic Activity was expressed as a fraction relative to the maximum activity determined for formoterol in each experiment. Results for compounds of the invention are to be found in Table 1.
Selectivity Assays
Adrenergic oclD
Membrane Preparation
Membranes were prepared from human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells expressing recombinant human lo receptor. These were diluted in Assay Buffer (50mM HEPES, lmM EDTA, pH 7.4) to provide a final concentration of membranes that gave a clear window between maximum and minimum specific binding.
Experimental Method
Assays were performed in U-bottomed 96-well polypropylene plates. 10 μΐ, [3H]-prazosin (0.3 nM final concentration) and 10 μί of test compound (lOx final concentration) were added to each test well. For each assay plate 8 replicates were obtained for [3H]-prazosin binding in the presence of 10 vehicle (10% (v/v) DMSO in Assay Buffer; defining maximum binding) or ΙΟμΙ^ BMY7378 (10 μΜ final concentration; defining non-specific binding (NSB)). Membranes were then added to achieve a final volume of 100 μί. The plates were incubated for 2 h at room temperature and then filtered onto PEI coated GF/B filter plates, pre-soaked for 1 h in Assay Buffer, using a 96-well plate Tomtec cell harvester. Five washes with 250 μΕ wash buffer (50mM HEPES, lmM EDTA, pH 7.4) were performed at 4°C to remove unbound radioactivity. The plates were dried then sealed from underneath using Packard plate sealers and MicroScint-0 (50 μί) was added to each well. The plates were sealed (TopSeal A) and filter-bound radioactivity was measured with a scintillation counter (TopCount, Packard Bioscience) using a 3-minute counting protocol.
Total specific binding (Bo) was determined by subtracting the mean NSB from the mean maximum binding. NSB values were also subtracted from values from all other wells. These data were expressed as percent of B0. Compound concentration-effect curves (inhibition of [3H] -prazosin binding) were determined using serial dilutions typically in the range 0.1 nM to 10 μΜ. Data was fitted to a four parameter logistic equation to determine the compound potency, which was expressed as pIC50 (negative log molar concentration inducing 50% inhibition of [3H]-prazosin binding). Results are shown in Table 1 below.

The present invention will now be further explained by reference to the following illustrative Examples.
Example 1
Evaluation of compound activity on intra-alveolar neutrophil migration after aerosol challenge with lipopolysaccharride (LPS) in the CRL:CD rat.
LPS challenge in CRL:CD rats causes an influx of inflammatory cells into the lungs. Rats are challenged either with an aerosol of 0.9% w/v saline or O. lmg/mL LPS in 0.9% saline for 30 min or an intratracheal dose of 0.1-10μg/kg. This is repeated up to 8 times according to the experimental protocol. Rats are dosed with vehicle, standard compound or test compound by the appropriate route and frequency at various time points before and after challenge depending upon the experimental protocol. Test compound groups could either be the same compound at different doses or single doses of different compounds or a combination of the two. Test compounds are given by intraperitoneal, intravenous or subcutaneous injection or by inhalation or intratracheal administration.
The rats are euthanized at various time points after challenge depending upon the nature of the study, but typically 4hr after LPS challenge with lmL pentobarbitone sodium. A tracheotomy is performed and a cannula inserted. The airway is then lavaged using 3 mL sterile PBS at room temperature. The PBS is left in the airway for 10 seconds before being removed. The PBS containing cells is placed into a 15 mL centrifuge tube on ice. This process is repeated three times.
An aliquot of BAL fluid is removed and counted on Sysmex (Sysmex UK, Milton
Keynes). Cytospin slides are prepared by adding a 100 μΐ aliquot of BAL fluid into cytospin funnels in a Shandon Cytospin3 operated at 700 rpm for 5 min. Slides are stained on the Hema-Tek-2000 automatic slide stainer, using Wright-Giemsa stain and typically, 200 cells are counted under a microscope. Cells are classified as eosinophils, neutrophils and mononuclear cells (mononuclear cells included monocytes, macrophages and lymphocytes) and are expressed as a percentage of the total count.
Example 2
Evaluation of compound activity on intra-alveolar neutrophil migration after aerosol challenge with lipopolysaccharride (LPS) in the guinea-pig.
Male Dunkin-Hartley guinea-pigs (300-600g) are placed into open fronted guinea-pig holding cones attached at random around a cylindrical aerosol chamber. Guinea-pigs are held in the challenge cones and exposed to an aerosol of vehicle, or LPS at concentrations of 0.1-30μg/ml in 0.9%saline per group Aerosols are generated using 2 jet nebulisers per column with a flow rate of 12 L/m. 10ml of the challenge agent is placed into each nebuliser. Alternatively animals receive an intratracheal dose of 0.1-10μg/kg. This is repeated up to 8 times according to the experimental protocol. Guinea-pigs are dosed with vehicle, standard compound or test compound by the appropriate route and frequency at various time points before and after challenge depending upon the experimental protocol. Test compound groups could either be the same compound at different doses or single doses of different compounds or a combination of the two. Test compounds are given by intraperitoneal, intravenous or subcutaneous injection or by inhalation or intratracheal administration. Challenged guinea-pigs are killed by anaesthesia overdose (0.5ml Euthetal i.p.) at 4h-24h post challenge. The lungs are then lavaged. After the trachea is exposed and cannulated using a luer fitting cannula (orange =size 8FG), the lungs are lavaged with 3 x 5ml aliquots of Hanks Buffered Salt Solution (HBSS, EDTA -free). The lavaging is performed with gentle massaging of the chest to ensure appropriate agitation of the fluid in the lungs. The washes are harvested into a 15ml conical, polypropylene centrifuge tube, an aliquot of BAL fluid is removed and counted on Sysmex (Sysmex UK, Milton Keynes). Cytospin slides are prepared by adding a 100 μΐ aliquot of BAL fluid into cytospin funnels in a Shandon Cytospin3 operated at 700 rpm for 5 min. Slides are stained on the Hema-Tek-2000 automatic slide stainer, using Wright-Giemsa stain and typically, 200 cells are counted under a microscope. Cells are classified as eosinophils, neutrophils and mononuclear cells (mononuclear cells included monocytes, macrophages and lymphocytes) and are expressed as a percentage of the total count.
Example 3
Evaluation of compound activity on intra-alveolar neutrophil migration after aerosol challenge with lipopolysaccharride (LPS) in the mouse.
Male C57BL/6/J or BALB/C mice (20-35g) are placed in Perspex exposure boxes in groups of up to 20 and exposed to an aerosol of either 0.3 mg/ml LPS or 0.9% w/v saline. The LPS (Sigma, E.Coli, Ref L-3755, Serotype 026:B6, Lot no. 11 lk4078) is made up in 0.9%) w/v saline. An aerosol is generated using two jet nebulisers operated at a flow rate of 12 L/min (6L/min for each nebuliser) for 15 min. Alternatively animals receive an intratracheal dose of 0.1-10μg/kg. This may be repeated up to 8 times.
Mice are dosed with vehicle, standard compound or test compound by the appropriate route and frequency at various time points before and after challenge depending upon the experimental protocol. Test compound groups could either be the same compound at different doses or single doses of different compounds or a combination of the two. Test compounds are given by intraperitoneal, intravenous or subcutaneous injection or by inhalation or intratracheal administration.
Mice are killed with an overdose of Euthatal i.p 30 minutes, l-24hr after LPS challenge. When circulation has ceased, the trachea is cannulated (Portex intravenous cannula) and the airways lavaged with 3 x 0.3ml of Isoton II (Beckman Coulter Ref. 8448011 Lot no.25775). For cytospins, ΙΟΟμΙ of the BALF is added to a cytospin funnel and spun, using a ThermoShandon Cytospin model 3 or 4, at 700 rpm for 5 min. Cells on the slide are stained on the Hema-Tek-2000 automatic slide stainer, using Wright-Giemsa stain and differential cell counts carried out to differentiate eosinophils, neutrophils and
lymphomononuclear cells (including monocytes, macrophages and lymphocytes).
Typically, 200 cells are counted per slide and each cell type expressed as a percentage of the total count. BALF total white cell count is measured using a Sysmex (Sysmex UK, Milton Keynes).
Example 4
Evaluation of lung function in anaesthetised guinea-pigs.
Male Dunkin-Hartley guinea-pigs (300-600g) are weighed and dosed with either vehicle or compound in an appropriate vehicle according to the experimental protocol via the intratracheal route under recoverable gaseous anaesthesia (5% halothane in oxygen).
Following dosing, the animals are administered supplemental oxygen and monitored until full recovery. Typically a dose volume of 0.5 mL/kg is used for the intratracheal route. In a dose response study, animals are dosed with compound or vehicle two hours prior to the administration of histamine. Test compound groups could either be the same compound at different doses or single doses of different compounds or a combination of the two.
The guinea-pigs are anaesthetised with pentobarbitone (1 mL/kg of 60 mg/rnL solution intraperitoneally) approximately 30 minutes prior to the first bronchoconstrictor administration. The trachea is cannulated (Portex intravenous cannula, 200/300/070 (orange) or 200/300/060 (yellow)) and the animal ventilated using a constant volume respiratory pump (Harvard Rodent Ventilator model 683) at a rate of 60 breath/min and a tidal volume of 5 ml/kg. A jugular vein is cannulated (Portex intravenous catheter 200/300/010 (green)) for the administration of histamine or maintenance anaesthetic (0.1 mL of pentobarbitone solution, 60 mg/mL, as required).
The animals are then transferred to a Flexivent System (SCIREQ, Montreal, Canada) in order to measure airway resistance. The animals are ventilated (quasi-sinusoidal ventilation pattern) at 60 breaths/min at a tidal volume of 5 mL/kg. A positive end expiratory pressure of 2-3 cmH20 is applied. Respiratory resistance is measured using the Flexivent "snapshot" facility (1 second duration, 1 Hz frequency). Once stable baseline resistance value has been obtained the animals are given histamine dihydrochloride or methacholine in ascending doses (Histamine; 0.5, 1, 2, 3 and 5μg/kg, i.v., methacholine; 3, 10 and 30 μg/kg, i.v.) at approximately 4-minute intervals via the jugular catheter. After each administration of histamine the peak resistance value is recoreded. Guinea pigs are euthanised with approximately l .OmL pentobarbitone sodium (Euthatal) intravenously after the completion of the lung function measurements.
Percentage bronchoprotection produced by a compound is calculated at each dose of histamine as follows:
% changeRveh - % changeRcmpd
% bronchoprotection
% changeR, veh
Where % change Rveh is the mean of the maximum percentage change in airway resistance in the vehicle treated group.
Example 5
Evaluation of Compounds on Antigen induced Eosinophilia in Ovalbumin Sensitised Brown Norway Rats.
On day 0 of the study Brown Norway rats are given a subcutaneous injection of 500 μg ovalbumin adsorbed onto 100 mg aluminium hydroxide in 0.4 mL saline in two distinct sites, approximately 0.2 mL per site. Day 14 and 15 following sensitisation the rats are challenged with aerosolised ovalbumin for 15 minutes. The rats are placed in groups of 10 in an acrylic box (internal dimensions 320mm wide x 320mm deep x 195 mm high, 20L volume). 8mL of 10 mg/mL ovalbumin in 0.9% saline, or 0.9% saline alone, is placed in each of two jet nebulizers (Sidestream®, Profile Respiratory Systems Ltd.). Compressed air at 6 L/min is passed through each nebulizer and the output of the nebulizers is passed into the box containing the rats.
Rats are dosed via the appropriate route with vehicle, standard compound or test compound at various time points before and after challenge depending upon the experimental protocol. Rats are euthanised with 0.5 mL pentobarbitone sodium (Euthatal)
intraperitoneally at various times after challenge. A tracheotomy is performed and the trachea cannulated. The airway is then lavaged using 3 mL sterile PBS at room
temperature. The PBS is left in the airway for 10 seconds before being removed. The PBS containing cells is placed into a 15 mL centrifuge tube on ice. This process is repeated three times. The final volume recovered is recorded. An aliquot of BAL fluid is removed and counted using a Sysmex (Sysmex UK, Milton Keynes).
Cytospin slides are prepared by adding a 100 μΐ aliquot of BAL fluid into cytospin funnels in a Shandon Cytospin 3 operated at 700 rpm for 5 min. Slides are stained on the Hema- Tek-2000 automatic slide stainer, using Wright-Giemsa stain and typically, 200 cells are counted under a microscope. Cells are classified as eosinophils, neutrophils and
mononuclear cells. Mononuclear cells included monocytes, macrophages and lymphocytes.
Example 6
Evaluation of Compounds on Antigen induced eosinophilia in ovalbumin sensitised mice.
20-25g male BALB/c mice are sensitized to ovalbumin by i.p administration of 100 μg of grade V ovalbumin (Sigma) adsorbed onto lmg of aluminium hydroxide gel mixture (Fisher Scientific UK) in 0.3 ml saline. Groups of mice are pre-dosed with compound if required, a minimum of two weeks after sensitization. They are then dosed daily for 1-8 days as study protocol specified, with test compound or 0.25 ml vehicle.
Each day of the 1-8 days, 1 hour after dosing, the mice are placed in perspex chambers (20x1 lxl 1cm, 10 mice max./chamber) and administered an aerosol challenge of 20mg ml"1 ovalbumin for 36 min (8 ml for 18 min followed by another 8 ml for 18 min). Aerosol delivery is achieved using a DeVilbiss jet nebulizer with a flow rate of 61 min"1. 24h after the last dose the mice are killed with euthatal 0.2 ml i.p. and blood samples are taken (in EDTA tubes) for differential cell count analysis, the trachea is cannulated using a pink luer mount Portex cannula cut to 1cm and the lungs are lavaged using 3 washes of 1ml of Isoton II.. For cytospins, ΙΟΟμΙ of the BALF is added to a cytospin funnel and spun, using a ThermoShandon Cytospin model 3 or 4, at 700 rpm for 5 min. Cells on the slide are stained on the Hema-Tek-2000 automatic slide stainer, using Wright-Giemsa stain and differential cell counts carried out to differentiate eosinophils, neutrophils and
lymphomononuclear cells (including monocytes, macrophages and lymphocytes).
Typically, 200 cells are counted per slide and each cell type expressed as a percentage of the total count. BALF total white cell count is measured using a Sysmex (Sysmex UK, Milton Keynes).
Example 7
Evaluation on the effect of compound on lung function and BAL-neutrophilia following acute smoke exposure in the mouse
BALB/c or C57BL6/J mice undergo whole body exposure to main stream smoke (50 min/ 12 cigarettes) and fresh air once or twice a day for 1-9 days. Mice are dosed via the appropriate route with vehicle, standard compound or test compound at various time points before and after challenge depending upon the experimental protocol. On the final day of the experiment, mice are either killed with euthatal 0.2 ml i.p. and broncho-aveolar lavage fluid obtained for analysis of white blood cell infiltration (as described above) or lung function is assessed using a Flexivent System (SCIREQ, Montreal, Canada). Alternatively lung mechanics are measured using a forced manoeuvres system (EMMS).
Mice are anaesthetised with pentobarbitone (1/lOdilution at a dose volume of 1 mL/kg intraperitoneally). The trachea is cannulated and the animal transferred to the Flexivent System where they are ventilated (quasi-sinusoidal ventilation pattern) at a rate of 150 breath/min and a tidal volume of 10 ml/kg in order to measure airways resistance. Respiratory resistance is measured using the Flexivent "snapshot" facility (1 second duration, 1 Hz frequency). Mice are euthanised with approximately 0.5mL pentobarbitone sodium (Euthatal) intravenously after the completion of the lung function measurements.
Example 8
Evaluation of bronchodilator activity in the guinea pig isolated tracheal ring preparation.
Guinea pigs (300-500g) are killed by cervical dislocation and the trachea is isolated. The trachea is cut into segments 2-3 cartilage rings in width and suspended in 10ml organ baths in modified Krebs' solution (mM; NaCl, 90; NaHC03, 45; KC1, 5; MgS04.7H20, 0.5; Na2HP04.2H20, 1; CaCl2, 2.25; glucose, 10; pH 7.4 gassed with 5% C02, 95% 02 at 37°C). The tracheal rings are attached to an isometric force transducer for the
measurement of isometric tension. The tissues are washed and a force of lg is applied to each tissue. The rings are contracted with methacholine (1 μΜ). Once the contraction reaches a plateau, vehicle (0.01% DMSO in distilled H20), a compound W (InM or 3nM), a compound X (InM), and a combination of compound W (3nM) and compound X (InM) are added and the tissue left for 60 min. The tension is measured in each ring at 60 min following compound addition and is expressed as a % relaxation of the constriction to methacholine (ΙμΜ) (mean ± s.e.mean). Data are collected using the Chart 4 software (ADInstruments, Charlgrove, UK).
