Definitions

  • Serotonin or 5 -hydroxy tryptamine (5-HT) plays a significant role in the functioning of the mammalian body.
  • serotonin is an important neurotransmitter and neuromodulator that is implicated in such diverse behaviors and responses as sleeping, eating, locomotion, perceiving pain, learning and memory, sexual behavior, controlling body temperature and blood pressure.
  • serotonin plays an important role in the control systems of the afferent peripheral nociceptors (Moulignier, Rev. Neurol. 150:3-15, (1994)).
  • Peripheral functions in the cardiovascular, hematological and gastrointestinal systems have also been ascribed to serotonin.
  • Serotonin has been found to mediate a variety of contractile, secretory, and electrophysiologic effects including vascular and nonvascular smooth muscle contraction, and platelet aggregation. (Fuller, Biology of Serotonergic Transmission, 1982; Boullin, Serotonin in Mental Abnormalities 1 :316 (1978); Barchas, et al., Serotonin and Behavior, (1973)).
  • Serotonin receptors are members of a large human gene family of membranespanning proteins that function as transducers of intercellular communication.
  • GPCRs G-protein coupled receptors
  • G-proteins G-protein coupled receptors
  • second messenger molecules such as cyclic AMP, inositol phosphates, and diacylglycerol.
  • 5-HT receptor subtypes The effects of serotonin are mediated by at least fourteen genetically distinct 5-HT receptor subtypes. Each subtype, which is assigned to one of seven families (5-HT1 through 5-HT7), displays a unique distribution, preference for various ligands, and functional correlate(s).
  • the 5-HT2A receptor subtype (also referred to as subclass) is widely yet discretely expressed in the human brain, including many cortical, limbic, and forebrain regions postulated to be involved in the modulation of higher cognitive and affective functions. This receptor subtype is also expressed on mature platelets where it mediates, in part, platelet aggregation, one of the initial steps in the process of vascular thrombosis.
  • Antipsychotic drugs have been shown to interact with a large number of central monoaminergic neurotransmitter receptors, including dopaminergic, serotonergic, adrenergic, muscarinic, and histaminergic receptors. It is likely that the therapeutic and adverse effects of these drugs are mediated by distinct receptor subtypes. The high degree of genetic and pharmacological homology between these receptor subtypes has hampered the development of subtype-selective compounds, as well as the determination of the normal physiologic or pathophysiologic role of any particular receptor subtype. Thus there is a need to develop drugs that are selective for individual receptor classes and subclasses amongst monoaminergic neurotransmitter receptors.
  • 5-HT2A receptors The prevailing theory for the mechanism of action of antipsychotic drugs involves antagonism of dopamine D2 receptors. Unfortunately, it is likely that antagonism of dopamine D2 receptors also mediates the extrapyramidal side effects as well as some additional undesired effects of antipsychotic therapies such as a worsening of depression symptoms, anhedonia and impairment of cognitive processes.
  • Antagonism of 5-HT2A receptors is an alternate molecular mechanism for drugs with antipsychotic efficacy, possibly through antagonism of heightened or exaggerated signal transduction through serotonergic systems. 5-HT2A antagonists are therefore good candidates for treating psychosis without extrapyramidal side effects or other undesired effects associated with blockade of dopamine D2 receptors.
  • GPCRs such as the 5-HT2A receptor have been assumed to exist in a quiescent state unless activated by the binding of an agonist (a drug that activates a receptor).
  • an agonist a drug that activates a receptor
  • GPCR monoamine receptors including serotonin receptors
  • inverse agonists Both agonists and inverse agonists possess intrinsic activity at a receptor, in that they alone can activate or inactivate these molecules, respectively.
  • classic or neutral antagonists compete against agonists and inverse agonists for access to the receptor, but do not possess the intrinsic ability to inhibit elevated basal or constitutive receptor responses.
  • compositions containing from about 10 mg to about 90 mg of 3-[(l-cyclopropoxyphenyl)-methyl]-l-[(2,4-difluorophenyl)-methyl]-l-(l-methyl- piperidin-4-yl)urea, or about an equivalent amount of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or salt hydrate thereof, and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.

RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 63/530,291, filed August 2, 2023, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 63/554,437, filed February 16, 2024, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
FIELD
[0002] Provided herein are compositions containing 3-[(l-cyclopropoxyphenyl)-methyl]-l-[(2,4- difluorophenyl)methyl]-l-(l-methylpiperidin-4-yl)urea, or about an equivalent amount of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and/or pharmaceutically acceptable salt hydrate thereof, as an active ingredient for treatment of diseases and conditions, particularly diseases and conditions associated with the serotonin receptor 5-HT.
BACKGROUND
[0003] Serotonin, or 5 -hydroxy tryptamine (5-HT), plays a significant role in the functioning of the mammalian body. In the central nervous system, serotonin is an important neurotransmitter and neuromodulator that is implicated in such diverse behaviors and responses as sleeping, eating, locomotion, perceiving pain, learning and memory, sexual behavior, controlling body temperature and blood pressure. In the spinal column, serotonin plays an important role in the control systems of the afferent peripheral nociceptors (Moulignier, Rev. Neurol. 150:3-15, (1994)). Peripheral functions in the cardiovascular, hematological and gastrointestinal systems have also been ascribed to serotonin. Serotonin has been found to mediate a variety of contractile, secretory, and electrophysiologic effects including vascular and nonvascular smooth muscle contraction, and platelet aggregation. (Fuller, Biology of Serotonergic Transmission, 1982; Boullin, Serotonin in Mental Abnormalities 1 :316 (1978); Barchas, et al., Serotonin and Behavior, (1973)).
[0004] Serotonin may be an important component in various types of pathological conditions such as certain psychiatric disorders (depression, aggressiveness, panic attacks, obsessive compulsive disorders, psychosis, schizophrenia, suicidal tendency), certain neuro-degenerative disorders (Alzheimer-type dementia, Parkinsonism, Huntington’s chorea), anorexia, bulimia, disorders associated with alcoholism, cerebral vascular accidents, and migraine (Meltzer, Neuropsychopharmacology>, 21 :106S-l 15S (1999); Barnes & Sharp, Neuropharmacology, 38: 1083-1152 (1999); Glennon, Neurosci. Biobehavior al Rev., 14:35 (1990)).
[0005] Given the broad distribution of serotonin within the body, it is understandable that tremendous interest in drugs that affect serotonergic systems exists (Gershon, et al., The Peripheral Actions of 5 -Hydroxytryptamine, 246 (1989); Saxena, et al., J. Cardiovascular Pharmacol. 15: Supp. 7 (1990)). Serotonin receptors are members of a large human gene family of membranespanning proteins that function as transducers of intercellular communication. They exist on the surface of various cell types, including neurons and platelets, where, upon their activation by either their endogenous ligand serotonin or exogenously administered drugs, they change their conformational structure and subsequently interact with downstream mediators of cellular signaling. Many of these receptors, including the 5-HT2A subclass, are G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) that signal by activating guanine nucleotide binding proteins (G-proteins), resulting in the generation, or inhibition of, second messenger molecules such as cyclic AMP, inositol phosphates, and diacylglycerol. These second messengers then modulate the function of a variety of intracellular enzymes, including kinases and ion channels, which ultimately affect cellular excitability and function.
[0006] The effects of serotonin are mediated by at least fourteen genetically distinct 5-HT receptor subtypes. Each subtype, which is assigned to one of seven families (5-HT1 through 5-HT7), displays a unique distribution, preference for various ligands, and functional correlate(s).
[0007] The 5-HT2A receptor subtype (also referred to as subclass) is widely yet discretely expressed in the human brain, including many cortical, limbic, and forebrain regions postulated to be involved in the modulation of higher cognitive and affective functions. This receptor subtype is also expressed on mature platelets where it mediates, in part, platelet aggregation, one of the initial steps in the process of vascular thrombosis.
[0008] Antipsychotic drugs have been shown to interact with a large number of central monoaminergic neurotransmitter receptors, including dopaminergic, serotonergic, adrenergic, muscarinic, and histaminergic receptors. It is likely that the therapeutic and adverse effects of these drugs are mediated by distinct receptor subtypes. The high degree of genetic and pharmacological homology between these receptor subtypes has hampered the development of subtype-selective compounds, as well as the determination of the normal physiologic or pathophysiologic role of any particular receptor subtype. Thus there is a need to develop drugs that are selective for individual receptor classes and subclasses amongst monoaminergic neurotransmitter receptors.
[0009] The prevailing theory for the mechanism of action of antipsychotic drugs involves antagonism of dopamine D2 receptors. Unfortunately, it is likely that antagonism of dopamine D2 receptors also mediates the extrapyramidal side effects as well as some additional undesired effects of antipsychotic therapies such as a worsening of depression symptoms, anhedonia and impairment of cognitive processes. Antagonism of 5-HT2A receptors is an alternate molecular mechanism for drugs with antipsychotic efficacy, possibly through antagonism of heightened or exaggerated signal transduction through serotonergic systems. 5-HT2A antagonists are therefore good candidates for treating psychosis without extrapyramidal side effects or other undesired effects associated with blockade of dopamine D2 receptors.
[0010] Traditionally, GPCRs such as the 5-HT2A receptor have been assumed to exist in a quiescent state unless activated by the binding of an agonist (a drug that activates a receptor). It is now appreciated that many, if not most, of the GPCR monoamine receptors, including serotonin receptors, can exist in a partially activated state in the absence of their endogenous agonists. This increased basal activity (constitutive activity) can be inhibited by compounds called inverse agonists. Both agonists and inverse agonists possess intrinsic activity at a receptor, in that they alone can activate or inactivate these molecules, respectively. In contrast, classic or neutral antagonists compete against agonists and inverse agonists for access to the receptor, but do not possess the intrinsic ability to inhibit elevated basal or constitutive receptor responses.
[0011] The compound 3-(4-cyclopropoxybenzyl)-l-(2,4-difluorobenzyl)-l-(l-methylpiperidin-4- yl)urea:
Figure imgf000004_0001
which can also be named as A-3-(4-cyclopropoxybenzyl)-A’-(2,4-difluorobenzyl)-A’-(l- methylpiperidin-4-yl)urea or Ar'-[[4-( cyclopropyloxy )phenyl]methyl]-A7-[(2,4-difluorophenyl)- met.hyl]-A-(1-methyl-4-piperidinyl)urea, has been shown to have activity towards the serontonin receptor in mammals. This compound and its synthesis are disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 11,345,693, as is the hemitartrate salt thereof.
[0012] There is therefore a need for pharmaceutical compositions containing this compound, or a salt or salt hydrate thereof, in amounts effective for treating a disease or condition affecting mammals, such as diseases or conditions involving the serotonin receptor.

A natural binding partner is an endogenous molecule that is an agonist for the receptor.
[0022] As used herein, a “subject” refers to an animal that is the object of treatment, observation and/or experiment. “Animal” includes cold- and warm-blooded vertebrates and invertebrates such as birds, fish, shellfish, reptiles and, in particular, mammals. “Mammal” includes, without limitation, mice; rats; rabbits; guinea pigs; dogs; cats; sheep; goats; cows; horses; primates, such as monkeys, chimpanzees, and apes, and, in particular, humans.
[0023] As used herein, a “patient” refers to a subject that is being treated by a medical professional such as an M.D. or a D.V.M. to attempt to cure, or at least ameliorate the effects of, a particular disease or condition or to prevent the disease or condition from occurring in the first place.
[0024] As used herein, a “pharmaceutically acceptable excipient” refers to an inert substance that is added to a pharmaceutical composition to provide, without limitation, bulk, consistency, stability, binding ability, lubrication, disintegrating ability, etc., to the composition and thatdoes not abrogate the biological activity and properties of the active ingredient.
[0025] As used herein, a “receptor” is intended to include any molecule present inside or on the surface of a cell that may affect cellular physiology when it is inhibited or stimulated by a ligand. Typically, a receptor comprises an extracellular domain with ligand-binding properties, a transmembrane domain that anchors the receptor in the cell membrane, and a cytoplasmic domain that generates a cellular signal in response to ligand binding (“signal transduction”). A receptor also includes any intracellular molecule that in response to ligation generates a signal. A receptor also includes any molecule having the characteristic structure of a receptor, but with no identifiable ligand. In addition, a receptor includes a truncated, modified, mutated receptor, or any molecule comprising partial or all of the sequences of a receptor.
[0026] As is known by those skilled in the art, steady-state concentration (Css) is defined as the time during which the concentration remains stable or consistent when the drug is given repeatedly. Hence, as used herein, “Cmax.ss” refers to the maximum stable or consistent concentration observed following administration.
[0027] When used herein, “prevent/preventing” should not be construed to mean that a condition and/or a disease never might occur again after use of a compound or pharmaceutical composition according to embodiments disclosed herein to achieve prevention. Further, the term should neither be construed to mean that a condition not might occur, at least to some extent, after such use to prevent said condition. Rather, “prevent/preventing” is intended to mean that the condition to be prevented, if occurring despite such use, will be less severe than without such use.
[0028] As used herein, the term “about” includes the recited number ±0.5 of the last digit thereof. Thus, “about 1” means 0.5 to 1.5 and “about 0.1” means 0.05 to 0.15.

[00124] Reaction 1 consists of reductive amination of /-methyl-4-piperidone (NMP) with the applicable benzylamine to produce JV-(2-[Rl]-4-difluorobenzyl)-l-methylpiperidin-4-amine, for example using palladium on carbon in ethanol or methanol is heated under hydrogen atmosphere and subsequently filtered to give compound (I) as a solution.
[00125] Reaction 2 consists of a reaction of a 4-alkoxybenzylamine acetate with phenyl chloroformate and a base such as potassium carbonate (K2CO3) in a suitable solvent such as a mixture of toluene and water to give compound (II). [00126] Reaction 3 is the reaction of (I) and (II) in a suitable solvent, e.g, methanol, toluene, or 2-methyl tetrahydrofuran, in the presence of a suitable base, e.g., tri ethylamine or potassium carbonate. Except when methanol is used as solvent, the solvent of compound (I) is replaced by another solvent such as toluene.
[00127] The reaction is followed by washing with an alkaline aqueous solution, e.g., a sodium hydroxide solution, and water, and concentration followed by addition of ethyl acetate and heptane and crystallization to give 3-(4-alkoxybenzyl)-l-(2-[Rl]-4-fluorobenzyl)-l-(l-methylpiperidin-4- yl)urea.
