BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention

[0001] This invention relates to compounds that bind to intracellular receptors and/or modulate activity of intracellular receptors, and to methods for making and using such compounds. Description of the Related Art [0002] Certain intracellular receptors (IRs) have been shown to regulate transcription of certain genes. See e.g., R. M. Evans, Science, 240, 889 (1988). Certain of such IRs are steroid receptors, such as androgen receptors, glucocorticoid receptors, estrogen receptors, mineralocorticoid receptors, and progesterone receptors. Gene regulation by such receptors typically involves binding of an IR by a ligand. [0003] In certain instances, a ligand binds to an IR, forming a receptor/ligand complex. That receptor/ligand complex may then translocate to the nucleus of a cell, where it may bind to the DNA of one or more gene regulatory regions. Once bound to the DNA of a particular gene regulatory region, a receptor/ligand complex may modulate the production of the protein encoded by that particular gene. In certain instances, a receptor/ligand complex regulates expression of certain proteins. In certain instances, a receptor/ligand complex may interact directly with the DNA of a particular gene regulatory region. In certain instances, a receptor/ligand complex may interact with other transcription factors, such as activator protein-1 (AP-I) or nuclear factor KB (NFKB). hi certain instances, such interactions result in modulation of transcriptional activation.

Detailed Description [0015] It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of the invention claimed. In this application, the use of the singular includes the plural unless specifically stated otherwise. In this application, the use of "or" means "and/or" unless stated otherwise. Furthermore, use of the term "including" as well as other forms, such as "includes," and "included," is not limiting. [0016] The section headings used herein are for organizational purposes only and are not to be construed as limiting the subject matter described. All documents, or portions of documents, cited in the application including, but not limited to, patents, patent applications, articles, books, manuals, and treatises are hereby expressly incorporated by reference in their entirety for any purpose. Definitions [0017] Unless specific definitions are provided, the nomenclatures utilized in connection with, and the laboratory procedures and techniques of, analytical chemistry, synthetic organic chemistry, and medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry described herein are those known in the art. Standard chemical symbols are used interchangeably with the full names represented by such symbols. Thus, for example, the terms "hydrogen" and "H" are understood to have identical meaning. Standard techniques may be used for chemical syntheses, chemical analyses, pharmaceutical preparation, formulation, and delivery, and treatment of patients. Standard techniques may be used for recombinant DNA, oligonucleotide synthesis, and tissue culture and transformation {e.g., electroporation, lipofection). Reactions and purification techniques may be performed e.g., using kits according to manufacturer's specifications or as commonly accomplished in the art or as described herein. The foregoing techniques and procedures may be generally performed according to conventional methods well known in the art and as described in various general and more specific references that are cited and discussed throughout the present specification. See e.g., Sambrook et al. Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual (2d ed., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N. Y. (1989)), which is incorporated herein by reference for any purpose. [0018] As used herein, the following terms are defined with the following meanings, unless expressly stated otherwise.

Certain exemplary target activities include, but are not limited to, binding affinity, signal transduction, enzymatic activity, tumor growth, and inflammation or inflammation-related processes. [0032] The term "receptor mediated activity" refers to any biological activity that results, either directly or indirectly, from binding of a ligand to a receptor. [0033] The term "agonist" refers to a compound, the presence of which results in a biological activity of a receptor that is the same as the biological activity resulting from the presence of a naturally occurring ligand for the receptor. [0034] The term "partial agonist" refers to a compound the presence of which results in a biological activity of a receptor that is of the same type as that resulting from the presence of a naturally occurring ligand for the receptor, but of a lower magnitude. [0035] The term "antagonist" refers to a compound, the presence of which results in a decrease in the magnitude of a biological activity of a receptor. In certain embodiments, the presence of an antagonist results in complete inhibition of a biological activity of a receptor. [0036] The term "alkyl" refers to an aliphatic hydrocarbon group. An alkyl may be a "saturated alkyl," which means that it does not contain any alkene or alkyne groups. An alkyl group may be an "unsaturated alkyl," which means that it comprises at least one alkene or alkyne group. An alkyl, whether saturated or unsaturated, may be branched or straight chain.

[0154] Certain compounds of the present inventions may exist as stereoisomers including optical isomers. The present disclosure is intended to include all stereoisomers and both the racemic mixtures of such stereoisomers as well as the individual enantiomers that may be separated according to methods that are known in the art or that may be excluded by synthesis schemes known in the art designed to yield predominantly one enantomer relative to another. [0155] Certain exemplary compounds of Formula I, II or III are set forth below.

Certain Synthesis Methods [0156] Certain synthesis schemes are now provided. The synthesis schemes are provide only to illustrate possible ways to make certain compounds of the invention and do not limit the invention in any way. One of skill in the art will recognize that compounds of the present invention may be synthesized through any of a variety of schemes using a variety of different starting materials. [0157] In certain embodiments, synthesis of 6-aryl- and 6-heteroaryl 1,2,3,4- tetrahydroquinoline compounds (e.g. Structures 6, (+)-6, and (-)-6) is accomplished using Scheme I.

[0158] The process of Scheme I begins with Skraup quinoline synthesis of an aniline (Structure 1), with a ketone, for example, acetone in the presence of iodine heated in a sealed tube at elevated temperatures to afford a dihydroquinoline (Structure 2). See Pooley, C. L. F., et.al, J. Med. Chem. 41:3461 (1998), which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The olefin of the dihydroquinoline can be functionalized in a number of ways. For example, the quinoline can be reduced by treatment with a reducing agent, for example, triethylsilane, in the presence of an acid, for example trifluoroacetic acid, to afford a tetrahydroquinoline (Structure 3, R6, R9 = H). Alternatively, the dihydroquinoline can be hydrated by, for example, treatment with a hydroborating agent, for example diborane, and subsequently treated with an oxidant, such as hydrogen peroxide, in the presence of a base, for example, sodium hydroxide to afford either a A- hydroxy-l,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (Structure 3, R6 = H, R9 = OH), or a 4α-alkyl-3β- hydroxy-l,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (Structure 3, R6 = OH, R9 = H). Alternatively, the dihydroquinoline can be oxidized by treatment with an oxidant, for example, osmium tetraoxide, to afford a 3,4-dihydroxy-l,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (Structure 3, R6, R9 = OH). Structure 3 can be halogenated at the 6-position by treatment with a brominating agent, for example, N-bromosuccinimide, to afford a compound of Structure 4. Treatment of Structure 4 with an organometallic reagent, for example, an aryl boronic acid, in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, for example, [1,1'- bis(diρhenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II), in the presence of a base, for example, aqueous sodium carbonate, to afford a compound of Structure 6. [0159] A compound of Structure 4 can be metallated to a compound of Structure 5 by treatment with a boronating agent, for example, 4,4,5,5-tetraniethyl-l,3,2- dioxaborolane, in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, for example, [1,1'- bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II), in the presence of a base, for example, triethylaniine, to afford a compound of Structure 5. Treatment of Structure 4 with halide, for example, an aryl bromide, in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, for example, [l,r-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II), in the presence of a base, for example, aqueous sodium carbonate, affords a compound of Structure 6. Tetrahydroquinoline compounds of Structure 6 (or any chiral synthetic precursor of Structure 6) can be separated into their corresponding enantiomers, (+)-6 and (-)-6 by chiral HPLC, with, for example, a preparative Chiracel OJ column eluted with hexanesrisopropanol. Alternatively, the enantiomers (+)-6 and (-)-6 could be prepared in enantiomerically enriched form via an enantiospecific synthesis of a synthetic precursor of Structure 6, for example, by asymmetric hydroboration of Structure 2 to afford a compound of Structure 3 in enantiomerically enriched form. [0160] In certain embodiments, synthesis of 6-aryl- or 6-heteroaryl-l,2,3,4- tetrahydroquinolines is accomplished using Scheme II.

[0161] The process of Scheme II begins with an aryl cross-coupling, with, for example, an aryl halide (Structure 7), such as a 4-bromoaniline, with an aryl boronic acid, in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, for example, [1,1'- bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II), in the presence of a base, for example, aqueous sodium carbonate, to afford a compound of Structure 8. An alternate synthesis of Structure 8 begins with a halonitrobenzene, for example 4-bromonitrobenzene, and an aryl boronic acid to afford a compound of Structure 10. Treatment of Structure 10 with a reducing agent, for example, zinc metal, affords Structure 8. A compound of Structure 8 can be converted to a dihydroquinoline by treatment with, for example, iodine, in acetone heated in a sealed tube at elevated temperatures to afford a compound of Structure 11. The quinoline can be reduced by treatment with a reducing agent, for example, triethylsilane, in the presence of an acid, for example trifluoroacetic acid, to afford a tetrahydroquinoline (Structure 6, R6, R9 = H). Alternatively, the dihydroquinoline can be hydrated by, for example, treatment with a hydroborating agent, for example diborane, and subsequently treated with an oxidant, such as hydrogen peroxide, in the presence of a base, for example, sodium hydroxide to afford either a 4-hydroxy- 1,2,3,4- tetrahydroquinoline (Structure 6, R6 = H, R9 = OH), or a 4α-alkyl-3β-hydroxy-l,2,3,4- tetrahydroquinoline (Structure 6, R6 = OH, R9 = H). Tetrahydroquinoline compounds of Structure 6 (or any chiral synthetic precursor of Structure 6) can be separated into their corresponding enantiomers, (+)-6 and (~)-6 by chiral HPLC, with, for example, a preparative Chiracel OJ column eluted with hexanesdsopropanol. Alternatively, the enantiomers (+)-6 and (-)-6 could be prepared in enantiomerically enriched form via an enantiospecific synthesis of Structure 6, for example, by asymmetric hydroboration of Structure 11 to afford a compound of Structure 6 in enantiomerically enriched form. [0162] hi certain embodiments, synthesis of 4α-alkyl-3α-hydroxy-l,2,3,4- tetrahydroquinoline compounds (e.g. Structure 14), l,4-dihydro-2H-quinolin-3-one compounds (e. g. Structures 13 and 15), and 4,4-dialkyl-3-hydroxy-l,2,3,4- tetrahydroquinoline compounds (e. g. Structure 16) is accomplished using Scheme III. Scheme III

hydride reduction

[0163] The process of Scheme III begins with the treatment of a 4α-alkyl-3β- hydroxy-l,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline, for example, 5-chloro-6-(3,5-dimethyl-isoxazol-4-yl)- l,2,3,4-tetrahydro-3β-hydroxy-2,2,4α,8-tetramethylquinolin e, with an oxidizing agent, for example, sulfur trioxide/pyridine to afford a l,4-dihydro-2H-quinolin-3-one of Structure 13. Treatment of the 2H-quinolin-3-one with a hydride reducing agent, for example, sodium borohydride, affords a 4α-alkyl-3α-hydroxy-l,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline compound of Structure 14. Alternatively, treatment of Structure 13 with alkylating agent, for example, allyl bromide, and a base, for example sodium hydride, affords a compound of Structure 15. Treatment of Structure 15 with a reducing agent, for example sodium borohydride, affords a compound of Structure 16. Compounds of Structure 13, 14, 15, or 16 can be separated into their corresponding enantiomers, by chiral HPLC, with, for example, a preparative Chiracel OJ column eluted with hexanes:isopropanol [0164] In certain embodiments, synthesis of 4α-alkyl-3α-hydroxy-l, 2,3,4- tetrahydroquinoline compounds (e.g. Structure 22) is accomplished using Scheme IV.

bromination

[0165] Treatment of a 4α-alkyl-3β-hydroxy-l,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (Structure 18) with an oxidizing agent, for example sulfur trioxide/pyridine, affords a compound of Structure 19. Treatment of Structure 19 with a hydride reducing agent, for example, sodium borohydride, affords a compound of Structure 20. Treatment of Structure 20 with a brominating agent, for example N-bromosuccinimide, affords a compound of Structure 21. Treatment of Structure 21 with an aryl boronic acid or aryl boronate, in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, for example, [1,1'- bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II), and a base, for example, sodium carbonate, affords a compound of Structure 22. Tetrahydroquinoline compounds of Structure 22 (or any chiral synthetic precursor of Structure 22) can be separated into their corresponding enantiomers, (+)-22 and (-)-22 by chiral HPLC, with, for example, a preparative Chiracel OJ column eluted with hexanesasopropanol. [0166] In certain embodiments, synthesis of 4α-alkyl-3α-hydroxy-l,2,3,4- tetrahydroquinoline compounds (e.g. Structure 26), l,4-dihydro-2H-quinolin-3-one compounds (Structures 24A and 28), and 4,4-dialkyl-3-hydroxy- 1,2,3,4- tetrahydroquinoline compounds (Structure 29) is accomplished using Scheme V. Scheme V

[0167] A 4α-alkyl-6-bromo-3β-hydroxy-l,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (Structure 23) is treated with an oxidant, for example, sulfur trioxide/pyridine, to afford a compound of Structure 24. Treatment of a compound of Structure 24 with a hydride reducing agent, for example, sodium borohydride, affords a compound of Structure 25. Treatment of Structure 25 with an aryl boronic acid or aryl boronate, in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, for example, [l,r-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II), and a base, for example, sodium carbonate, affords a compound of Structure 26. Alternatively, a compound of Structure 24 may be treated with an alkylating agent, for example methyl iodide, and a base, for example sodium hydride, to afford a compound of Structure 27. Treatment of Structure 27 with an aryl boronic acid or aryl boronate, in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, for example, [1,1'- bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II), and a base, for example, sodium carbonate, affords a compound of Structure 28. Treatment of Structure 28 with a reducing agent, for example sodium borohydride, affords a compound of Structure 29. Alternatively a compound of Structure 27 can be treated with a reducing agent, for example sodium borohydride, to afford a compound of Structure 27 A. Then treatment of Structure 27 A with an aryl boronic acid or aryl boronate, in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, for example, [l,r-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II), and a base, for example, sodium carbonate, affords a compound of Structure 29. Alternatively, treatment of a compound of Structure 24 with an aryl boronic acid or aryl boronate, in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, for example, [I3I'- bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II), and a base, for example, sodium carbonate, affords a compound of Structure 24A. [0168] hi certain embodiments, synthesis of 6-aryl- and 6-heteroaryl bromides, boronic acids, and boronate esters is accomplished using Schemes VI-X. The process of Scheme VI begins with the treatment of a phenol, for example 2-cyanophenol, with a brominating agent, for example iV-bromosuccinimide, in the presence of a base, for example diisopropylamine, to afford an o-bromophenol (Structure 31). Structure 31 can be alkylated by treatment with an alkyl halide, for example, methyl iodide, in the presence of a base, for example potassium carbonate, to afford a compound of Structure 32. A compound of Structure 32 can be converted to a compound of Structure 33 by treatment with a boronating agent, for example, 4,4,5, 5-tetramethyl-l,3,2-dioxaborolane, in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, for example, Pd2dba3, and a phosphorus ligand, for example, 2-(dicyclohexylphosphino)biphenyl, in the presence of a base, for example, triethylamine, to afford a compound of Structure 33.

[0189] hi certain embodiments, the invention provides a salt corresponding to any of the compounds provided herein. In certain embodiments, the invention provides a salt corresponding to a selective glucocorticoid receptor modulator, a selective mineralocorticoid receptor modulator and/or a selective glucocoroticoid/mineralocorticoid receptor modulator, hi certain embodiments, the invention provides a salt corresponding to a selective glucocorticoid receptor binding agent, a selective mineralocorticoid receptor binding agent and/or a selective glucocoroticoid/mineralocorticoid receptor binding agent, hi certain embodiments, a salt is obtained by reacting a compound with an inorganic acid, such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid, and the like, hi certain embodiments, a salt is obtained by reacting a compound with a base to form a salt such as an ammonium salt, an alkali metal salt, such as a sodium or a potassium salt, an alkaline earth metal salt, such as a calcium or a magnesium salt, a salt of organic bases such as dicyclohexylamine, N-methyl-D-glucamine, tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamine, and salts with amino acids such as arginine, lysine, and the like. [0190] hi certain embodiments, one or more carbon atoms of a compound of the present invention is replaced with silicon. See e.g., WO 03/037905 Al; Tacke and Zilch, Endeavour, New Series, 10, 191-197 (1986); Bains and Tacke, Curr. Opin. Drug Discov Devel. Jul:6(4):526-43(2003). hi certain embodiments, compounds of the present invention comprising one or more silicon atoms possess certain desired properties, including, but not limited to, greater stability and/or longer half-life in a patient, when compared to the same compound in which none of the carbon atoms have been replaced with a silicon atom. Certain Assays [0191] hi certain embodiments, compounds of the present invention are capable of modulating activity of glucocorticoid and/or mineralocorticoid receptors in a "co- transfection" assay (also called a "cis-trans" assay), which has been discussed previously. See e.g., Evans et al, Science, 240:889-95 (1988); U.S. Patent Nos. 4,981,784 and 5,071,773; Pathirana et al, "Nonsteroidal Human Progesterone Receptor Modulators from the Marie Alga Cymopolia Barbata," MoI. Pharm. 47:630-35 (1995)). Modulating activity in a co-transfection assay has been shown to correlate with in vivo modulating activity. Thus, in certain embodiments, such assays are predictive of in vivo activity. See, e.g, Berger et ah, J. Steroid Biochem. Molec. Biol. 41:773 (1992). [0192] In certain co-transfection assays, two different co-transfection plasmids are prepared. In the first co-transfection plasmid, cloned cDNA encoding an intracellular receptor {e.g., glucocorticoid or mineralocoticoid receptor) is operatively linked to a constitutive promoter {e.g., the SV 40 promoter). In the second co-transfection plasmid, cDNA encoding a reporter protein, such as firefly luciferase (LUC), is operatively linked to a promoter that is activated by a receptor-dependant activation factor. Both co-transfection plasmids are co-transfected into the same cells. Expression of the first co-transfection plasmid results in production of the intracellular receptor protein. Activation of that intracellular receptor protein {e.g., by binding of an agonist) results in production of a receptor-dependant activation factor for the promoter of the second co-transfection plasmid. That receptor-dependant activation factor in turn results in expression of the reporter protein encoded on the second co-transfection plasmid. Thus, reporter protein expression is linked to activation of the receptor. Typically, that reporter activity can be conveniently measured {e.g., as increased luciferase production). [0193] Certain co-transfection assays can be used to identify agonists, partial agonists, and/or antagonists of intracellular receptors. In certain embodiments, to identify agonists, co-transfected cells are exposed to a test compound. If the test compound is an agonist or partial agonist, reporter activity is expected to be higher compared to co- transfected cells in the absence of the test compound. In certain embodiments, to identify antagonists, the cells are exposed to a known agonist {e.g., the natural ligand for the receptor) in the presence and absence of a test compound. If the test compound is an antagonist, reporter activity is expected to be lower than that of cells exposed only to the known agonist. [0194] In certain embodiments, compounds of the invention are used to detect the presence, quantity and/or state of receptors in a sample. In certain of such embodiments, samples are obtained from a patient. In certain embodiments, compounds are radio- or isotopically-labeled. For example, compounds of the present invention that selectively bind glucocorticoid and or mineralocorticoid receptors may be used to determine the presence or amount of such receptors in a sample, such as cell homogenates and lysates. Certain Pharmaceutical Agents [0195] In certain embodiments, at least one selective glucocoroticoid receptor modulator, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt, ester, amide, and/or prodrug thereof, either alone or combined with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, forms a pharmaceutical agent. In certain embodiments, at least one selective mineralocorticoid receptor modulator, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt, ester, amide, and/or prodrug thereof, either alone or combined with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, forms a pharmaceutical agent. In certain embodiments, at least one selective glucocoroticoid/mineralocorticoid receptor modulator, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt, ester, amide, and/or prodrug thereof, either alone or combined with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, forms a pharmaceutical agent.

[0198] In certain embodiments, a pharmaceutical agent comprising one or more compounds of the present invention is a solid (e.g., a powder, tablet, and/or capsule). In certain of such embodiments, a solid pharmaceutical agent comprising one or more compounds of the present invention is prepared using ingredients known in the art, including, but not limited to, starches, sugars, diluents, granulating agents, lubricants, binders, and disintegrating agents. [0199] In certain embodiments, a pharmaceutical agent comprising one or more compounds of the present invention is formulated as a depot preparation. Certain of such depot preparations are typically longer acting than non-depot preparations. Ih certain embodiments, such preparations are administered by implantation (for example subcutaneously or intramuscularly) or by intramuscular injection. Ih certain embodiments, depot preparations are prepared using suitable polymeric or hydrophobic materials (for example an emulsion in an acceptable oil) or ion exchange resins, or as sparingly soluble derivatives, for example, as a sparingly soluble salt. [0200] hi certain embodiments, a pharmaceutical agent comprising one or more compounds of the present invention comprises a delivery system. Examples of delivery systems include, but are not limited to, liposomes and emulsions. Certain delivery systems are useful for preparing certain pharmaceutical agents including those comprising hydrophobic compounds, hi certain embodiments, certain organic solvents such as dimethylsulfoxide are used. [0201] Ih certain embodiments, a pharmaceutical agent comprising one or more compounds of the present invention comprises one or more tissue-specific delivery molecules designed to deliver the pharmaceutical agent to specific tissues or cell types. For example, in certain embodiments, pharmaceutical agents include liposomes coated with a tissue-specific antibody. [0202] hi certain embodiments, a pharmaceutical agent comprising one or more compounds of the present invention comprises a co-solvent system. Certain of such co- solvent systems comprise, for example, benzyl alcohol, a nonpolar surfactant, a water- miscible organic polymer, and an aqueous phase. In certain embodiments, such co-solvent systems are used for hydrophobic compounds. A non-limiting example of such a co- solvent system is the VPD co-solvent system, which is a solution of absolute ethanol comprising 3% w/v benzyl alcohol, 8% w/v of the nonpolar surfactant Polysorbate 80™ , and 65% w/v polyethylene glycol 300. The proportions of such co-solvent systems may be varied considerably without significantly altering their solubility and toxicity characteristics. Furthermore, the identity of co-solvent components may be varied: for example, other surfactants may be used instead of Polysorbate 80™; the fraction size of polyethylene glycol may be varied; other biocompatible polymers may replace polyethylene glycol, e.g., polyvinyl pyrrolidone; and other sugars or polysaccharides may substitute for dextrose. [0203] In certain embodiments, a pharmaceutical agent comprising one or more compounds of the present invention comprises a sustained-release system. A non-limiting example of such a sustained-release system is a semi-permeable matrix of solid hydrophobic polymers. In certain embodiments, sustained-release systems may, depending on their chemical nature, release compounds over a period of hours, days, weeks or months. [0204] Certain compounds used in pharmaceutical agent of the present invention may be provided as pharmaceutically acceptable salts with pharmaceutically compatible counterions. Pharmaceutically compatible salts may be formed with many acids, including but not limited to hydrochloric, sulfuric, acetic, lactic, tartaric, malic, succinic, etc. [0205] hi certain embodiments, a pharmaceutical agent comprising one or more compounds of the present invention comprises an active ingredient in a therapeutically effective amount, hi certain embodiments, the therapeutically effective amount is sufficient to prevent, alleviate or ameliorate symptoms of a disease or to prolong the survival of the subject being treated. Determination of a therapeutically effective amount is well within the capability of those skilled in the art. [0206] hi certain embodiments, a pharmaceutical agent comprising one or more compounds of the present invention is formulated as a prodrug. In certain embodiments, prodrugs are useful because they are easier to administer than the corresponding active form. For example, in certain instances, a prodrug may be more bioavailable (e.g., through oral administration) than is the corresponding active form, hi certain instances, a prodrug may have improved solubility compared to the corresponding active form. In certain embodiments, a prodrug is an ester, hi certain embodiments, such prodrugs are less water soluble than the corresponding active form, hi certain instances, such prodrugs possess superior transmittal across cell membranes, where water solubility is detrimental to mobility. In certain embodiments, the ester in such prodrugs is metabolically hydrolyzed to carboxylic acid. In certain instances the carboxylic acid containing compound is the corresponding active form. In certain embodiments, a prodrug comprises a short peptide (polyaminoacid) bound to an acid group, hi certain of such embodiments, the peptide is metabolized to form the corresponding active form.

In certain embodiments, pharmaceutical intrathecals are administered to achieve local rather than systemic exposures. For example, pharmaceutical agents may be injected directly in the area of desired effect (e.g., in the renal or cardiac area). [0208] In certain embodiments, a pharmaceutical agent comprising one or more compounds of the present invention is administered in the form of a dosage unit (e.g., tablet, capsule, bolus, etc.). In certain embodiments, such dosage units comprise a selective glucocorticoid and/or minerlaocorticoid receptor modulator in a dose from about 1 μg/kg of body weight to about 50 mg/kg of body weight.

In certain embodiments, such dosage units comprise a selective glucocorticoid and/or minerlaocorticoid receptor modulator in a dose from about 10 μg/kg of body weight to about 5 mg/kg of body weight. In certain embodiments, pharmaceutical agents are administered as needed, once per day, twice per day, three times per day, or four or more times per day. It is recognized by those skilled in the art that the particular dose, frequency, and duration of administration depends on a number of factors, including, without limitation, the biological activity desired, the condition of the patient, and tolerance for the pharmaceutical agent.

EXAMPLES [0231] The following examples, including experiments and results achieved, are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention. EXAMPLE l General Methods [0232] General Method 1: Skraup cyclization of an aniline to a 1,2-dihydro- 2,2,4-trimethylquinoline. A solution of an aniline (1.0 equiv), iodine (0.2-0.4 equiv), N, O- bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide (2 equiv) in acetone (0.1-0.2 M) is heated in a sealed tube (110-130 0C) for 16-24 h . After heating, the solution is then processed by either a non¬ aqueous workup or by an aqueous work-up, hi the non-aquesuous workup, the solution is evaporated under reduced pressure and chromatographed using silica gel and EtOAc:hexanes to afford the desired product as an oil. hi the aqueous workup, the solution is mixed with an aqueous solution of sodium thiosulfate and a first organic layer of a 1:1 mixture of EtOAc :hexanes. The first organic layer is collected. The aqueous layer is then extracted a second time with a second layer of EtOAc rhexanes (1:1). The first and second organic layers are combined and that combined organic solution is washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. Flash chromatography (using silica gel) of the product of that process affords the desired compound. [0233] General Method 2: Reduction of a 1,2-dihydroquinoline to a 1,2,3,4- tetrahydroquinoline. A solution of a 1,2-dihydroquinoline (1 equiv), triethylsilane (5 equiv) and trifluoroacetic acid (5 equiv) in 1,2-dichloroethane (0.5 M) is heated at reflux for 12-18 h, resulting in a dark brown solution. That dark brown solution is mixed with EtOAc and saturated sodium bicarbonate, resulting in an aquesous layer and a first organic layer. The frist organic layer is collected and the aqueous layer is extracted with a second organic layer of EtOAc. The first organic layer and the second organic layer are combined and that combined organic layer is washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. Flash chromatography (silica gel) affords the desired compound as an oil. [0234] General Method 3: Aromatic bromination of a 1,2,3,4- tetrahydroquinoline. To a solution of a 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (1 equiv) in chloroform (0.2 M) at -10 0C is added N-bromosuccinimide (1.03 equiv) in portions over 15 minutes. After 1.5 hours, the mixture is washed with water, resulting in an aqueous layer and a first organic layer. The first organic layer is collected and the aqueous layer is extracted with a second organic layer of dichloromethane. The first and second organic layers are combined and that combined organic layer is washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. Flash chromatography (silica gel) affords the desired 6-bromo- 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline. [0235] General Method 4.

Dioxane (0.1-0.2 M) is added, followed by triethylamine (3-5 equiv), and pinacolborane (2- 4 equiv). The solution is heated to reflux for 18 hours. Additional triethylamine and pinacolborane is added as need to complete the reaction. The mixture is poured into cold saturated ammonium chloride, resulting in an aqueous layer and a first organic layer. The aqueous layer is extracted with EtOAc, and the organic layer from that extraction is combined with the first organic layer. That combined organic layer is washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. Flash chromatography (silica gel) affords the desired compound. [0236] General Method 5. Palladium-catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling of an aryl halide and an aryl boronic acid or aryl pinacol boronate. In a Schlenck reaction flask, a mixture of an aryl bromide (1 equiv); an aryl boronic acid or aryl pinacol boronate (1.0- 1.3 equiv); and [l,r-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II) complex with dichloromethane (3-10 mol %) is placed under vacuum, and back-filled with nitrogen. Dioxane (0.1-0.2 M) and 2M sodium carbonate (2 equiv) are introduced sequentially. The mixture is heated (95-100 0C) for 16-24 h. The mixture is partitioned between saturated ammonium chloride and EtOAc, resulting in a first organic layer and an aqueous layer. The first organic layer is collected and the aqueous layer is extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer from that extraction is combined with the first collected organic layer and that combined organic layer is washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure.

[0303] This compound was prepared by the hydroboration of a 4-alkyl-l,2- dihydroquinolme to produce a 4α-alkyl-l,2,3,4-tetrahydro-3β-hydroxyquinoline (trans- isomer), as follows, herein referred to as General Method 7. To a rapidly stirring solution of 5.0 g (22.6 mmol) of 5-chloro-l,2-dihydro-2,2,4,8-tetramethylquinoline in 100 niL of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (0.23 M) at 0 0C under nitrogen was added dropwise, over 20 minutes, 27.0 niL of a 1.5 M solution of borane in tetrahydrofuran (1.8 equiv). After addition of the borane was complete, the mixture was stirred at for an additional 20 minutes at 0 0C and then at room temperature for 5 hours to produce an intermediate organoborane. That intermediate organoborane was oxidized by adding, successively, 25 mL of a 2.0 N aqueous potassium hydroxide solution (2.2 equiv) and 20 mL of 30 % hydrogen peroxide (8.7 equiv) at 0 0C. That mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 2 hours and then the mixture was diluted with 80 mL of water, resulting in a first organic layer and an aqueous layer. The first organic layer was collected and the aqueous phase was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer from that extraction was combined with the first organic layer and that combined organic layer was washed with brine and dried over sodium sulfate. Filtration and concentration of the filtrate in vacuo gave a brown oil which was chromatographed on silica gel.

See e.g., O'Reilly, D.R., Miller, L.K., Luckow, V.A., Regulation of expression of a baculovirus ecdysteroid UDP glucosyltransferase gene. "Baculovirus Expression Vectors." WH Freeman, NY, 139-179 (1992). That recombinant virus comprising GR cDNA was collected. [0473] A suspension culture of uninfected Sf21 cells was grown to a density of 1.2x106 cells/ml and then infected with the recombinant virus comprising GR cDNA at a multiplicity of infection of 2. Those infected Sf21 cells were incubated for 48 hours and then collected by centrifugation at 1000 x g for 10 minutes at 40C. The resulting cell pellets were resuspended in lysis buffer (50 niM Potassium Phosphate buffer, pH 7.0, 10 mM Monothioglycerol, 5 mM DTT, 20 mM Sodium Molybdate, 1 mM PMSF, 1 μg/mL aprotinin, and 10 μg/mL leupeptin) and incubated for 15 minutes on ice. Those resuspended cell pellets were homogenized using a Dounce homogenizer and a B pestle. A volume of 2 M KCI was added to the homogenized cell pellets to a final concentration of 0.4 M. The resulting GR lysates were centrifuged at 100,000 x g for 60 min at 40C and stored for use in binding assays. Binding Assays [0474] Binding assay samples were prepared in separate mini-tubes in a 96-well format at 40C. Each binding assay sample was prepared in a volume of 250 μl of GR- Assay Buffer (10% glycerol, 25 mM sodium phosphate, 10 mM potassium fluoride, 10 mM sodium molybdate, 0.25 mM CHAPS5 2 mM DTT and 1 mM EDTA, (adjusted to pH 7.5)) containing 50 μg of GR lysate; 2-4 nM of [3H]dexamethasone at 84 Ci/mmol; and either a reference compound or a test compound. Test compounds included selective glucocorticoid binding compounds of the present invention. Reference compounds were unlabeled dexamethasone and prednisone, which have been previously shown to bind to glucocorticoid receptors. Each reference compound and test compound was assayed at varying concentrations, ranging from 0 to 10" M. Each concentration of each reference compound and each test compound was assayed in triplicate. The assay samples were incubated for 16 hours at 40C. [0475] After incubation, 200 μl of 6.25% hydroxylapatite in assay buffer was added to each assay sample to precipitate the protein. The assay samples were then centrifuged and the supematants were discarded. The resulting pellets were washed twice with assay buffer lacking DTT. Radioactivity in counts per minute (CPM) of each washed pellet was determined by liquid scintillation counter (MicroBeta™, Wallach). [0476] Specific binding for a particular sample was calculated using the equation: (Sample CPM) - (Average Non-specific CPM) Average Non-specific CPM was defined as the amount of radioactivity from samples comprising an excess (i.e. 1000 nM) of unlabeled dexamethasone. ICs0 values (the concentration of test compound required to decrease specific binding by 50%) were determined using the log-logit (Hill) method. Kj values were determined using the Cheng- Prusoff equation using a previously determined Kd value for dexamethasone:

Ki = IC50Z(I + [L]ZKd)

[L] = concentration of labeled dexamethasone Kd = dissociation constant of labeled dexamethasone For a discussion of the calculation of Kj, see e.g., Cheng, Y. C. and Prusoff, W. H. Biochem. Pharmacol. 22:3099 (1973). K; values for certain glucocorticoid binding compounds are shown in Table 1. Table 1. GR Binding Data

EXAMPLE 159 Mineralocorticoid Binding Assays Preparation of MR [0477] Human mineralocorticoid receptor protein was prepared from a baculovirus expression plasmid comprising cDNA encoding human mineralocorticoid Receptor-α (MRa), as described for GR (Example 158). Binding Assays [0478] Binding assay samples were prepared in separate mini-tubes in a 96-well format at 40C. Each binding assay sample was prepared in a volume of 250 μl of MR- Assay Buffer (10% glycerol, 10 mM sodium phosphate, 10 mM potassium fluoride, 20 mM sodium molybdate, 0.25 mM CHAPS, 2 mM DTT, (adjusted to pH 7.35)) containing 5-10 μg of MR lysate; 2-4 nM of [3H] aldosterone; unlabled aldosterone; and a test compound. Each test compound was assayed at several different concentrations, ranging from 0 to 10"5 M and each was tested in the presence and in the absence of several different concentrations of unlabeled aldosterone. Each concentration of each each test compound was assayed in triplicate. The assay samples were incubated for 16 hours at 40C. [0479] After incubation, protein was precipitaed with hydroxylapatite, collected, and counted as described in Example 158 for GR. Specific binding for a particular sample was calculated using the same equation as was used for GR: (Sample CPM) - (Average Non-specific CPM) Average Non-specific CPM was defined as the amount of radioactivity from samples comprising an excess (i.e. 1000 nM) of unlabeled aldosterone. IC5Q values (the concentration of test compound required to decrease specific binding by 50%) were determined using the log-logit (Hill) method. Kj values were determined using the Cheng- Prusoff equation using a previously determined K<j value for aldosterone:

Ki = I(W(I + [L]ZKd)

[L] = concentration of labeled aldosterone Kd = dissociation constant of labeled aldosterone [0480] Kj values for certain mineralocorticoid receptor binding compounds are shown in Table 2. Table 2. MR Binding Data
