Description:
HYDROXYETHYLAMINE DERIVATIVES FOR THE TREATMENT OF ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE The present invention relates to novel hydroxyethylamine compounds having Asp2 (ß- secretase, BACE1 or Memapsin) inhibitory activity, processes for their preparation, to compositions containing them and to their use in the treatment of diseases characterised by elevated (3-amyloid levels or ß-amyloid deposits, particularly Alzheimer's disease.

Alzheimer's disease is a degenerative brain disorder in which extracellular deposition of Ap in the form of senile plaques represents a key pathological hallmark of the disease (Selkoe, D. J.

(2001) Physiological Reviews 81: 741-766). The presence of senile plaques is accompanied by a prominent inflammatory response and neuronal loss. ß-amyloid (AP) exists in soluble and insoluble, fibrilla forms and a specific fibrilla form has been identified as the predominant neurotoxic species (Vassar, R. and Citron, M. (2000) Neuron 27: 419-422). In addition it has been reported that dementia correlates more closely with the levels of soluble amyloid rather than plaque burden (Naslund, J. et al. (2000) J. Am. Med. Assoc. 12: 1571-1577; Younkin, S.

(2001) Nat. Med. 1: 8-19). Ap is known to be produced through the cleavage of the beta amyloid precursor protein (also known as APP) by an aspartyl protease enzyme known as Asp2 (also known as P-secretase, BACE1 or Memapsin) (De Strooper, B. and Konig, G.

(1999) Nature 402: 471-472).

Therefore, it has been proposed that inhibition of the Asp2 enzyme would reduce the level of APP processing and consequently reduce the levels of Ap peptides found within the brain.

Therefore, it is also thought that inhibition of the Asp2 enzyme would be an effective therapeutic target in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

APP is cleaved by a variety of proteolytic enzymes (De Strooper, B. and Konig, G. (1999) Nature 402: 471-472). The key enzymes in the amyloidogenic pathway are Asp2 (ß- secretase) and y-secretase both of which are aspartic proteinases and cleavage of APP by these enzymes generates Ap. The non-amyloidogenic, a-secretase pathway, which precludes Ap formation, has been shown to be catalysed by a number of proteinases, the best candidate being ADAM10, a disintegrin and metalloproteinase. Asp1 has been claimed to show both a-and P-secretase activity in vitro. The pattern of expression of Asp1 and Asp2 are quite different, Asp2 is most highly expressed in the pancreas and brain while Asp1 expression occurs in many other peripheral tissues. The Asp2 knockout mouse indicates that lack of Asp2 abolished A (3 production and also shows that in this animal model endogenous Asp1 cannot substitute for the Asp2 deficiency (Luo, Y. et al. (2001) Nat Neurosci. 4: 231-232; Cai, H. et. al. (2001) Nat Neurosci. 4: 233-234; Roberds, S. L. et al. (2001) Hum. Mol. Genet.

10: 1317-1324).

For an agent to be therapeutically useful in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease it is preferable that said agent is a potent inhibitor of the Asp2 enzyme, but should ideally also be selective for Asp2 over other enzymes of the aspartyl proteinase family, e. g Cathepsin D

(Connor, G. E. (1998) Cathepsin D in Handbook of Proteolytic Enzymes, Barrett, A. J., Rawlings, N. D. , & Woesner, J. F. (Eds) Academic Press London. pp828-836).

WO 01/70672, WO 02/02512, WO 02/02505, WO 02/02506 and WO 03/040096 (Elan Pharmaceuticals Inc.) describe a series of hydroxyethylamine compounds having p-secretase activity which are implicated to be useful in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

We have found a novel series of compounds which are potent inhibitors of the Asp2 enzyme, thereby indicating the potential for these compounds to be effective in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

To a solution of methyl 4-amino-1H-indole-6-carboxylate (D201) (1.0 g, 5.3 mmol, 1 equiv) in CH2CI2 (50 ml) were added pyridine (0.55 g, 6.5 mmol, 1.2 equiv), 4-chloro-1-butanesulfonyl chloride (1.14 g, 6 mmol, 1.1 equiv) and DMAP (300 mg, 2.45 mmol, 0.5 equiv) and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5h. NEt3 (1 ml, 7.2 mmol, 1.3 equiv) was added and the resulting solution stirred for 2 h then diluted with AcOEt, washed with a 2N aqueous solution, a saturated aqueous NaHC03 solution, dried over MgS04 and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in MeOH (20 mi) and treated with a 2N aqueous NaOH solution (10 ml, 20 mmol, excess). The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 15 h then most of the MeOH was removed in vacuo. The residue was partitioned between AcOEt and a 2N aqueous HCI solution. The two layers were separated and the organic phase was dried over MgS04 and concentrated in vacuo. Purification of the residue by flash chromatography on silica gel (CH2CI2/MeOH : 9/1) gave 4- (1, 1-dioxidotetrahydro-2H-1,2- thiazin-2-yl)-1 H-indole-6-carboxylic acid (A155) (320 mg, 20%) as a pale pink solid.

Most of the EtOH was removed in vacuo and the residue was partitioned between AcOEt and saturated aqueous NaHCO3 solution. The aqueous phase was extracted with AcOEt. The combined organic phases were dried over MgS04 and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was triturated with Et20 to give 3-amino-N- [(1 S, 2R)-1-benzyl-3-((S)-1-cycloheXylcarbamoyl-ethylamino)-2-hydr oxypropyl]-5-(2-oXo- pyrrolidin-1-yl)-benzamide (E63) (15mg, 38%) as a pale yellow solid.

The mixture was then cooled to room temperature and the catalyst was filtered off through a pad of celite. Most of the EtOH was removed in vacuo and the residue was partitioned between AcOEt and H2O.

The aqueous phase was extracted with AcOEt. The combined organic phases were dried over MgS04 and concentrated in vacuo to give N-((1 S, 2R)-3-amino-1-benzyl-2-hydroxy-propyl)-3- (2-oxo-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-5-pentyloxy-benzamide (420 mg, 66%) as a white solid.

Compounds of the invention may be tested for in vitro biological activity in accordance with the following assays: (I) Asp-2 inhibitory assay For each compound being assayed, in a 384 well plate, is added:-

a) 1 pl of a DMSO solution of the test compound (IC50 curve uses ten 1 in 2 serial dilutions from 50011M). b) 10 gel of substrate (FAM-SEVNLDAEFK-TAMRA) solution in buffer. This is prepared by diluting 2ml of a 2mM DMSO solution of the substrate into 400ml of buffer (100mM Sodium acetate pH = 4.5, 1 I Milli-Q water, 0. 06% Triton X-100 (0.5 mull), pH adjusted to 4.5 using glacial acetic acid). Aminomethyl fluorescein (FAM) and tetramethyl rhodamine (TAMRA) are fluorescent molecules which co-operate to emit fluorescence at 535nm upon cleavage of the SEVNLDAEFK peptide. c) 10 gui enzyme solution. This is prepared by diluting 16m1 of a 500nM enzyme solution into 384 ml of buffer (prepared as above).

Blank wells (enzyme solution replaced by buffer) are included as controls on each plate. Wells are incubated for 1 h at room temperature and fluorescence read using a Tecan Ultra Fluorimeter/Spectrophotometer (485nm excitation, 535nm emission).

(II) Cathepsin D inhibitory assay For each compound being assayed, in a 384 well plate, is added:- a) 1 pl of a DMSO solution of the test compound (IC50 curve uses ten 1 in 2 serial dilutions from 500 1M). b) 10 pl of substrate (FAM-SEVNLDAEFK-TAMRA) solution in buffer. This is prepared by diluting 2ml of a 2mM DMSO solution of the substrate into 400ml of buffer (100mM Sodium acetate pH = 4.5, 1 I Milli-Q water, 0.06% Triton X-100 (0.5 ml/l), pH adjusted to 4.5 using glacial acetic acid). c) 10 pl enzyme solution. This is prepared by diluting 1. 6ml of a 200 unit/ml (in 10 mM HCI) enzyme solution into 398.4 ml of buffer (prepared as above).

Blank wells (enzyme solution replaced by buffer) are included as controls on each plate, Wells are incubated for 1 h at room temperature and fluorescence read using a Tecan Ultra Fluorimeter/Spectrophotometer (485nm excitation, 535nm emission).
