DESCRIPTION

HYDROXAMIC ACID DERIVATIVE Technical Field The present invention relates to hydroxamic acid derivatives useful as matrix metallo-proteinase inhibitors.

Background Art Extra cellular matrix, composition of connective tissue, is metabolized by a family of proteinases termed matrix metallo-proteinases. It is known that there exist 16 kinds of matrix metallo-proteinases such as collagenase (matrix metallo-proteinase-1: MMP-1), gelatinase A (matrix metallo- proteinase-2: MMP-2), stromelysin (metallo-proteinase-3: MMP-3), gelatinase B (matrix metallo-proteinase-9: MMP-9) and collagenase-3 (matrix metallo-proteinase-13: MMP-13).

Extra cellular matrix is under tight control by the expression and secretion of these matrix metallo- proteinases or endogenous inhibitors such as tissue inhibitor of matrix metallo-proteinases in normal. There are many reports about relationships between diseases characterized by excessive tissue disruption and elevated activities of matrix metallo-proteinases derived form the breakdown of these control.

Elevated levels of matrix metallo-proteinases,

particularly collagenase and stromelysin, have been detected in joints of osteoarthritic humans or that of rheumatoid arthritis (Arthr. Rheum., 33,388-97 (1990); S. M.

Krane et. al.,"Modulation of matrix synthesis and in The Control of degradation in joint inflammation, The Control of Tissue Damage", A. B. Glauert (ed.), Elsevier Sci. Publ., Amsterdam, 1988, Ch. 14, pp 179-95; Clin. Chim. Acta, 185, 73-80 (1989); Arthr. Rheum., 27,305-312 (1984) ; J. Clin. Invest., 84,678-685 (1989)).

Secreted proteinases such as stromelysin, collagenase and gelatinase play an important role in processes involved in the movement of cells during metastatic tumor invasion.

Indeed, there is also evidence that the matrix metallo- proteinases are overexpressed in certain metastatic tumor cell line. In this context, the enzyme functions to penetrate underlying basement membranes and allow the tumor cell to escape from the site of primary tumor formation and enter circulation (FEBS J., 5,2145-2154 (1991); Trends Genet., 6,121-125 (1990); Cancer Res., 46,1-7 (1986); Cell, 64,327-336 (1990); Cancer and Metastasis Rev., 9,305- 319 (1990)).

Both collagenase and stromelysin activities are observed in fibroblasts isolated from inflamed gingiva (J.

Periodontal Res., 16,417-424 (1981)). Enzyme levels have been correlated to the severity of gum disease (J.

Periodontal Res., 22,81-88 (1987)).

Collagenase-3 (matrix metalloproteinase-13: MMP-13) is

expressed in synovia of rheumatoid arthritis and chondrocyte of human osteoarthritis (J. Clin. Invest., 97, 2011-2019 (1996); J. Rheumatol., 23,509-595 (1996); J. Biol. Chem., 271,23577-23581 (1996); J. Clin. Invest., 97, 761-768 (1996)). MMP-13 has a strong enzyme activity against type II collagen and aggrecan. Thus, it is suggested that MMP-13 plays an important role in osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis (J. Biol. Chem., 271,1544-1550 (1996) ; FEBS Lett., 380,17-20 (1996)). Therefore, inhibitors to matrix metallo-proteinase are useful as therapeutic agents or prophylactic drugs for joint diseases such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, metastasis of tumor cell and gingivitis.

Matrix metallo-proteinases are also concerned with conversion from the latent form of tumor necrosis factor-a to the mature form (Nature, 370,555-557 (1994)), degradation of a 1-antitrypsin (FEBS Lett., 279,191- 194 (1991)) and processing of other matrix metallo- proteinases (Biochemistry, 29,10261-10670 (1990); J. Biol. Chem., 267,21712-21719 (1992)). Therefore, inhibitors to matrix metalloproteinase are useful as anti- inflammatory agents.

WO 96/20936 disclose novel thiazolidin-4-one derivatives which inhibit platelet-activating factor and/or 5-lipoxygenase. But, it does not disclose the compounds can inhibit matrix metallo-proteinases.

The solution was filtrated and then poured into a sealed tube containing 3A molecular sieves and a solution of p-methoxybenzaldehyde (183 » 1) in dioxane (1 mL). The mixture was heated at 80 °C for 4 hours.

Mercaptosuccinic acid (375 mg) was added to the mixture and the heating was continued for an additional 12 hours. The reaction was cooled, diluted with EtOAc (2 mL) and filtered to remove the molecular sieves. The filtrate was washed twice with 2 ml of 1N HC1 and evaporated to give a solid residue that was used in the next step without further purification.

Step 2: (2-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-3-[(lS)-methoxycarbonyl-2- phenylethyl]-4-oxo-thiazolidin-5-yl)-acetic acid N- methylamide The crude carboxylic acid from step 1, diisopropylethylamine (178 » 1), HOBT (138 mg) and EDC. HC1 (196 mg) were dissolved in CH2C12 (2 mL) and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour.

Methylamine (254 gel, 8.03 M in ethanol) was added to the mixture and stirring was continued for an additional 12 hours. The reaction was diluted with CH2C12 (5 mL) and washed with 1N HC1 (2 x 1.5 mL), water (1.5 mL) and brine (1.5 mL). The organic layer was concentrated In vaouo and the crude product was used in the next step.

Step 3: 2-t3-t (lS)-(N-Hydroxycarbamoyl)-2-phenylethyl]-2- (4-methoxyphenyl)-4-oxo-thiazolidin-5-yl]]-N- methylacetamide KOH (435 mg) and hydroxylamineHCl (340 mg) were dissolved in MeOH (2.14 mL and 3.4 mL respectively) at room temperature. Once a solution was obtained, the KOH solution was poured into the hydroxylamine solution at 0 °C and the mixture was maintained at this temperature for 1 hour. The precipitate (RC1) was filtered off. The filtrate was added into the solution of the methyl ester (obtained in step 2) in MeOH (2 mL) and stirring was continued for an additional 3 hours. Acetic acid (0.5 mL) was added to the mixture and the volume of the reaction was reduced to one third. The

resulting viscous solution was diluted with water (2 mL) and EtOAc (5 mL). The organic layer was separated, evaporated and purified by HPLC.

The following compounds listed in the Tables 4,4'and 4''were prepared in a similar manner.

Step 2: Ethyl 6-t-butoxycarbonyl-2H-2- (4-methoxy-benzyl)-1,4 -benzothiazin-3 (4H)-one-4-yl-acetate To sodium hydride (3.32g) suspended with THF (30 mL) was added a solution of the product of Step 1 (30.5 g) in THF (240 mL), and ethyl bromoacetate (13.1 mL) were added dropwise at 0-5 °C. The mixture was warmed to r. t. and left at r. t. overnight. Saturated aqueous ammonium chloride was added and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with water and brine, dried over MgS04, and concentrated under the reduced pressure to give 37 g of the product as oil.

Step 3: 6-Carboxyl-2H-2- (4-methoxybenzyl)-1, 4-benzo-thiazin- 3 (4H)-one-4-yl-acetic acid N-hydroxyamide To a solution of ethyl 6-t-butoxycarbonyl-2H-2- (4- methoxy-benzyl)-1,4-benzothiazin-3 (4H)-one-4-yl-acetate (3g) was added 5N-aqueous sodium hydroxide (1.44mL) at r. t. and stirred for 4hr at r. t. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. 5% KHS04 aq. was added, and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with brine, and dried over MgS04 and concentrated under reduced

pressure to give 6-t-butoxycarbonyl-2H-2- (4-methoxy- benzyl)-1,4-benzothiazin-3 (4H)-one-4-yl acetic acid as oil.

Isobutyl chloroformate (1.04 g) was added dropwise to a THF (30 mL) solution of 6-t-butoxycarbonyl-2H-2- (4-Methoxy- benzyl)-1,4-benzo-thiazin-3 (4H)-one-4-yl acetic acid and N- methylmorpholine (769 mg) at-15 to-20 °C. O-TMS- hydoxylamine (1.09 g) was added after additional 15 minutes'stirring. The mixture was warmed to r. t. with stirring, and stood overnight. The reaction mixture was quenched with sat. NaHC03 aq. and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with 1N HC1, sat. NaHC03 aq. and brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure to give 2.25 g of 6-t-butoxycarboxyl-2H-2- (4- methoxybenzyl)-1,4-benzo-thiazin-3 (4H)-one-4-ylacetic acid N-hydroxyamide as pale yellow oil. 5%-ethanedithiol in TFA (lOmL) was added to dissolve 6-t-butoxycarboxyl-2H-2- (4- methoxybenzyl)-1,4-benzo-thiazin-3 (4H)-one-4-ylacetic acid N-hydroxyamide, and stood at r. t. for 2hrs. Toluene (lOmL) was added and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by recrystallization from mixed solvent of THF and hexane to give 1.2 g of the hydroxamic acid as colorless solid.

Triethylamine (24 ml, 0.17 mmol) was added followed by acetyl chloride (12 ml, 0.17 mmol), and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was diluted in DCM (5 ml) and washed with saturated Na2CO3 (2 x 2 ml), water (2 ml) and brine (2 ml). The organic layer was concentrated in vacuo and the crude amide was used directly in the next step.

Step 2: [7-Acetoamino-2H-2-benzyl-3 (4H)-oxo-1,4- benzothiazine-4-yl]-acetic acid N-hydroxyamide Potassium hydroxide (109 mg, 1.93 mmol) and hydroxylamine hydrochloride (85 mg, 1.22 mmol) were dissolved in methanol (0.53 ml and 0.9 ml respectively) at room temperature. Once a solution was obtained the potassium hydroxide solution was poured into the

hydroxylamine solution at 0 °C and the mixture was maintained at this temperature for 1 hour. The precipitate (potassium chloride) was filtered off, the liquid added into the solution of the methyl ester obtained in step 1 in methanol (1 ml) and stirring was continued for an additional 3 hours. Acetic acid (0.5 ml) was added to the mixture and the solvent was evaporated to dryness. The residue was then re-dissolved in water and extracted with ethyl acetate (2 x 3ml). The combined organic extracts were evaporated to dryness, dissolved in DMSO and purified by reverse phase chromatography to yield the major product of the reaction together with small amount of the sulfoxide.

The results of biological testing of some compounds are described below.

Biological Data Metallo-proteinases used and inhibition assay protocols are described below.

MMP-2 and MMP-9 Both enzymes were commercially available as active forms (Yagai-Cosmobio) and were used for inhibition assays.

MMP-3 (Matrix metalloproteinase-3. Stromelysin-1) C-terminal truncated form of human prostromelysin cDNA (proMMP-3, cDNA sequence in Nature, 348,699-704 (1990)) was subcloned, expressed in E. ooli and purified as described previously (Biochemistry 30,6476-6483 (1991)).

Activation of proMMP-3 was achieved by treatment with 1 mM 4-aminophenylmercuric acetate at 37°C for 60 min.

MMP-13 (Matrix metalloproteinase-13. Collagenase-3) To subclone C-terminal truncated form of procollagenase- 3 (proMMP-13) cDNA (J. Biol. Chem., 269 (24), 16766-16773 (1994)), two synthetic oligonucleotide primer (5'- GGAATTCCATATGCTGCCGCTGCCGAGTGGTGGTGATGAAGATG-3'and 5'- TTTGGATCCTTAGCCGTACAGGCTTTGAATACCTTGTACATCGTCATCAGG- 3' : the former incorporates sequences for a unique NdeI site (underlined) including initial methionine, and the latter has sequences for a stop codon and BamHI site

(underlined)) were used with human chondrocyte cDNA library (CLONTECH) in PCR. With these primers and Peu DNA polymerase (STRATAGENE) in PCR, 767 bp fragment was generated, which encodes 84 amino acid prosequence and 164 amino acids of mature MMP-13. The fragment was digested with NdeI and BamHI, ligated into the NdeI and BamHI sites of pETlla (STRATAGENE), transformed in E. ooli BL21 (DE3) and cultured. The crude cell extract was prepared as described inBioohemistry. Theextractwas dialyzed against 20 mM Tris-HC1 (pH7.2)/5mM CaCl2/0.02% NaN3 and applied to a SP- Sepharose HP column (1.6 x 10 cm, Amersham-Pharmacia Biotech), and elution was performed with 50 mL linear gradient of 0 to 0.3 M NaCl (partially purified proMMP-13 was eluted at 0.2 M approximately). The fraction was dialyzed against 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH7.9)/5mM Cal2,/200 mu (NH4) 2SO4/0.02% NaN3 and applied to a Phenyl Sepharose HP column (1.6 x 5cm, Amersham-Pharmacia Biotech), and elution was performed with 20 mL linear gradient of 0.2 to 0 M (NH4) 2SO4 (pure proMMP-13 was eluted at 50 mM approximately).

The fraction was concentrated by YM-5 ultrafiltration membrane and activated with 4-aminophenylmercuric acetate and active MMP-13 was separated from propeptide fragments by gel filtration chromatography as described in <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> Bioohemistly.<BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> ibitionassaysagainst^WPs Enzymatic assays were performed in accordance with C. G.

Knight's method (FEBS Lett., 296 (3), 263-266 (1992)). The fluorescent MCA-labeled substrate, (7-methoxyoumaline-4- yl)-Pro-Leu-Gly-Leu-L- [N- (2,4-dinitrophenyl)-L-2,3- diaminopropionyl]-Ala-Arg-NH2 (Peptide Institute. Inc.) was used for measuring the kinetics of inhibition for each tested compound.

The substrate was incubated at 37 °C for 1.5 hours (MMP- 1; for 24 hours) with active MMP (at 20 nM, except MMP-13 at 5 nM) and a test compound in assay buffer containing 100 mM Tris-HCl (pH7.5), 10 mM CaCl2,100 mM NaCl and 0.05% Brij-35. After the mixture was plated at 100 RL/well onto a 96-well microtiter plate and incubated at 37°C, enzymatic activity in the presence of the compound was estimated by measuring the fluorescence intensity (Aw 320nm, X 405nm) and IC50 was determined.

After culturing for 4 hours, each test compound diluted in RPMI1640 was added at 50 FL/well. 15 minutes later, 4 Rg/RL LPS (DIFCO) diluted in RPMI1640 was added at 50 RL/well and cultured for 24 hours.

TNF-a produced was measured by ELISA as usual. (For example; J. Cellular Physiol. 154,479 (1993)) Absorbance at 450 nm (normalized at 620 nm) was measured and percentage of the amount of TNF-a release for each tested compound (n=2) was determined (0% for untreated control (n=4), and 100% for LPS stimulation (n=4)).
