1. FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to Isoquinoline Compounds, compositions comprising an effective amount of an Isoquinoline Compound and methods for treating or preventing an inflammatory disease, a reperfusion injury, diabetes, a diabetic complication, reoxygenation injury resulting from organ transplantation, an ischemic condition, Parkinson's disease, renal failure, a vascular disease, or cancer, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof an effective amount of an Isoquinoline Compound.
2. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Inflammatory diseases, such as arthritis, colitis, and autoimmune diabetes, typically manifest themselves as disorders distinct from those associated with reperfusion injuries, e.g., stroke and heart attack, and can clinically manifest themselves as different entities. However, there can be common underlying mechanisms between these two types of disorders. In particular, inflammatory disease and reperfusion injury can induce proinflammatory cytokine and chemokine synthesis which can, in turn, result in production of cytotoxic free radicals such as nitric oxide and superoxide. NO and superoxide can react to form peroxynitrite (ONOO " ) (Szabό et ah, Shock 6:79-88, 1996).
The ONOCT-induced cell necrosis observed in inflammatory disease and in reperfusion injury involves the activation of the nuclear enzyme poly (ADP-ribose) synthetase (PARS). Activation of PARS is thought to be an important step in the cell-mediated death observed in inflammation and reperfusion injury (Szabό et ah, Trends Pharmacol. Sci. 19:287-98, 1998).
A number of PARS inhibitors have been described in the art. See, e.g., Banasik et ah, J. Biol. Chem., 267:1569-75, 1992, and Banasik et ah, MoI. Cell. Biochem., 138:185-97, 1994; WO 00/39104; WO 00/39070; WO 99/59975; WO 99/59973; WO
99/11649; WO 99/11645; WO 99/11644; WO 99/11628; WO 99/11623; WO 99/11311; WO 00/42040; Zhang et al, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., 278:590-98,2000; White et al, J. Med. Chem., 43:4084-4097, 2000; Griffin et al, J. Med. Chem., 41:5247-5256, 1998; Shinkwin et al, Bioorg. Med. Chem., 7:297-308, 1999; and Soriano et at, Nature Medicine, 7:108-113, 2001. Adverse effects associated with administration of PARS inhibitors have been discussed in Milan et al, Science, 223:589-591, 1984.
Isoquinoline compounds have been previously discussed in the art. For example, cytotoxic non-camptothecin topoisomerase I inhibitors are reported in Cushman et al, J. Med. Chem., 43:3688-3698, 2300 and Cushman et al, J. Med. Chem. 42:446-57, 1999; indeno[l,2-c]isoquinolines are reported as antineoplastic agents in Cushman et al, WO 00/21537; and as neoplasm inhibitors in Hrbata et al, WO 93/05023.
Syntheses of isoquinoline compounds have been reported. For example, see Wawzonek et al, Org. Prep. Proc. Int., 14:163-8, 1982; Wawzonek et al, Can. J. Chem., 59:2833, 1981; Andoi et al, Bull. Chem. Soc. Japan, 47:1014-17, 1974; Dusemund et al, Arch. Pharm (Weinheim, Ger.), 3 17:381-2, 1984; and LaI et al, Indian J. Chem., Sect. B, 38B:33-39, 1999.
There remains, however, a need in the art for compounds useful for treating or preventing an inflammatory disease, a reperfusion injury, diabetes, a diabetic complication, reoxygenation injury resulting from organ transplantation, an ischemic condition, Parkinson's disease, renal failure, a vascular disease, or cancer.

General Procedure For The Preparation of Compounds of Formula 56
To a solution of homophthalic anhydride (lib) (about 1 equivalent) in a suitable solvent, such as acetonitrile, is added a compound of Formula 51 (about 1 to about 2 equivalents), follwed by a suitable base, such as triethylamine (about 1 to about 5 equivalents). The resultant reaction mixture is allowed to stir for about 1 hour, at which time a precipitate appears. The reaction mixture is then heated to reflux for about 20 hours, cooled to room temperature and filtered. The collected solid is washed with acetonitrile and dried under vacuum to provide a compound of Formula 53.
Compound 52 can be prepared from homophthalic anhydride (lib) and benzoic anhydride in two steps. Homophthalic anhydride and benzoic anhydride are reacted in a suitable solvent such as pyridine in the presence of an acid such as HCl, subsequently reacted with acetic anhydride in pyridine and heated to reflux, and then refluxed in the presence of an amine such as NH 3 in MeOH, to provide the compound of Formula 52.
To a solution of the compound of Formula 52 or 53 in a suitable solvent, such as DMF, is added a reducing agent, such as ammonium formate in the presence of palladium on carbon. The reaction mixture is heated to a temperature of about 90 to 100°C, cooled to room temperature and filtered to provide a compound of the Formula 54.
The compound of the Formula 54 can be reacted with X-(CHa) n -COCl, under conditions effective to form an amide of the Formula 55.
The compound of Formula 55 can be reacted with an amine of formula HNZ 1 Z 2 , or an amine of formula HNR 5 R 6 in the presence of a solvent such as ethanol or DMF and heating to reflux, to form the compound of Formula 56.
The Isoquinoline Compounds of Formula (III) can be made using the methods described below in Scheme 2, wherein R^R 10 are as defined above for the compounds of Formula (III).

4.5.9.3 Multi-Therapy For Cancer
The Isoquinoline Compounds can be administered to a subject that has undergone or is currently undergoing one or more additional anticancer therapies including, but not limited to, surgery, radiation therapy, or immunotherapy, such as cancer vaccines.
In one embodiment, the invention provides methods for treating or preventing cancer comprising administering to a subject in need thereof (a) an amount of an Isoquinoline Compound effective to treat or prevent cancer; and (b) another anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, surgery, radiation therapy, or immunotherapy, such as a cancer vaccine.
Li one embodiment, the other anticancer therapy is radiation therapy. hi another embodiment, the other anticancer therapy is surgery.
In still another embodiment, the other anticancer therapy is immunotherapy. hi a specific embodiment, the present methods for treating or preventing cancer comprise administering (i) an effective amount of an Isoquinoline Compound and (ii) radiation therapy. The radiation therapy can be administered concurrently with, prior to, or subsequent to the Isoquinoline Compound, in one embodiment at least an hour, five hours, 12 hours, a day, a week, a month, in another embodiment several months (e.g., up to three months), prior or subsequent to administration of the Isoquinoline Compounds. Where the other anticancer therapy is radiation therapy, any radiation therapy protocol can be used depending upon the type of cancer to be treated. For example, but not by way of limitation, X-ray radiation can be administered; in particular, high-energy megavoltage (radiation of greater that 1 MeV energy) can be used for deep tumors, and electron beam and orthovoltage X-ray radiation can be used for skin cancers. Gamma-ray emitting radioisotopes, such as radioactive isotopes of radium, cobalt and other elements, can also be administered.
Additionally, the invention provides methods of treatment of cancer using an Isoquinoline Compound as an alternative to chemotherapy or radiation therapy where the chemotherapy or the radiation therapy results rn negative side effects in the subject being treated. The subject being treated can, optionally, be treated with another anticancer therapy such as surgery, radiation therapy, or immunotherapy.
The Isoquinoline Compounds can also be used in vitro or ex vivo, such as for the treatment of certain cancers, including, but not limited to leukemias and lymphomas, such treatment involving autologous stem cell transplants. This can involve a process in which
the subject's autologous hematopoietic stem cells are harvested and purged of all cancer cells, the subject's remaining bone-marrow cell population is then eradicated via the administration of an Isoquinoline Compound and/or radiation, and the resultant stem cells are infused back into the subject. Supportive care can be subsequently provided while bone marrow function is restored and the subject recovers.
4.6 Therapeutic/Prophylactic Administration and Compositions of the Invention
Due to their activity, the Isoquinoline Compounds are advantageously useful in veterinary and human medicine. As described above, the Isoquinoline Compounds are useful for treating or preventing a Condition in a subject in need thereof. The Isoquinoline Compounds can be administered in amounts that are effective to treat or prevent a Condition in a subject.
When administered to a subject, the Isoquinoline Compounds can be administered as a component of a composition that comprises a physiologically acceptable carrier or vehicle. The present compositions, which comprise an Isoquinoline Compound, can be administered orally. The Isoquinoline Compounds can also be administered by any other convenient route, for example, by infusion or bolus injection, by absorption through epithelial or mucocutaneous linings (e.g., oral, rectal, and intestinal mucosa, etc.) and can be administered together with another biologically active agent. Administration can be systemic or local. Various delivery systems are known, e.g., encapsulation in liposomes, microparticles, microcapsules, capsules, etc., and can be administered.
Methods of administration include, but are not limited to, intradermal, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, intravenous, subcutaneous, intranasal, epidural, oral, sublingual, intracerebral, intravaginal, transdermal, rectal, by inhalation, or topical, particularly to the ears, nose, eyes, or skin. In some instances, administration will result in the release of an Isoquinoline Compound into the bloodstream.
In one embodiment, the Isoquinoline Compounds are administered orally. In other embodiments, it can be desirable to administer the Isoquinoline Compounds locally. This can be achieved, for example, and not by way of limitation, by local infusion during surgery, topical application, e.g., in conjunction with a wound dressing after surgery, by injection, by means of a catheter, by means of a suppository or enema, or by means of an implant, said implant being of a porous, non-porous, or gelatinous material, including membranes, such as sialastic membranes, or fibers.
In certain embodiments, it can be desirable to introduce the Isoquinoline Compounds into the central nervous system or gastrointestinal tract by any suitable route, including intraventricular, intrathecal, and epidural injection, and enema. Intraventricular injection can be facilitated by an intraventricular catheter, for example, attached to a reservoir, such as an Ommaya reservoir.
Pulmonary administration can also be employed, e.g., by use of an inhaler of nebulizer, and formulation with an aerosolizing agent, or via perfusion in a fluorocarbon oar, synthetic pulmonary surfactant. In certain embodiments, the Isoquinoline Compounds can be formulated as a suppository, with traditional binders and excipients such as triglycerides.
In another embodiment the Isoquinoline Compounds can be delivered in a vesicle, in particular a liposome (see Langer, Science 249:1527-1533 (1990) and Treat or prevent et al., Liposomes in Therapy of Infectious Disease and Cancer 311-321 and 353-365 (1989)). In yet another embodiment the Isoquinoline Compounds can be delivered in a controlled-release system or sustained-release system (see, e.g., Goodson, in Medical Applications of Controlled Release, supra, vol. 2, pp. 115-138 (1984)). Other controlled or sustained-release systems discussed in the review by Langer, Science 249:1527-1533 (1990) can be used. In one embodiment a pump can be used (Langer, Science 249:1527- 1533 (1990); Sefton, CRC Crit. Ref. Biomed. Eng. 14:201 (1987); Buchwald et al,
Surgery 88:507 (1980); and Saudek et al., N. Engl. J Med. 321:574 (1989)). In another embodiment polymeric materials can be used (see Medical Applications of Controlled Release (Langer and Wise eds., 1974); Controlled Drug Bioavailability, Drug Product Design and Performance (Smolen and Ball eds., 1984); Ranger and Peppas, J. Macromol. ScL Rev. Macromol. Chem. 2:61 (1983); Levy et al., Science 228:190 (1935); During et al., Ann. Neural. 25:351 (1989); and Howard et al., J. Neurosurg. 71:105 (1989)).
In yet another embodiment a controlled- or sustained-release system can be placed in proximity of a target of the Isoquinoline Compounds, e.g., the spinal column, brain, skin, lung, or gastrointestinal tract, thus requiring only a fraction of the systemic dose. The present compositions can optionally comprise a suitable amount of a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient so as to provide the form for proper administration to the subject.
Such pharmaceutical excipients can be liquids, such as water and oils, including
those of petroleum, animal, vegetable, or synthetic origin, such as peanut oil, soybean oil, mineral oil, sesame oil and the like. The pharmaceutical excipients can be saline, gum acacia; gelatin, starch paste, talc, keratin, colloidal silica, urea and the like. Li addition, auxiliary, stabilizing, thickening, lubricating, and coloring agents can be used. In one embodiment the pharmaceutically acceptable excipients are sterile when administered to a subject. Water is a particularly useful excipient when the Isoquinoline Compoundis administered intravenously. Saline solutions and aqueous dextrose and glycerol solutions can also be employed as liquid excipients, particularly for injectable solutions. Suitable pharmaceutical excipients also include starch, glucose, lactose, sucrose, gelatin, malt, rice, flour, chalk, silica gel, sodium stearate, glycerol monostearate, talc, sodium chloride, dried skim milk, glycerol, propylene, glycol, water, ethanol and the like. The present compositions, if desired, can also contain minor amounts of wetting or emulsifying agents, or pH buffering agents.
The present compositions can take the form of solutions, suspensions, emulsion, tablets, pills; pellets, capsules, capsules containing liquids, powders, sustained-release formulations, suppositories, emulsions, aerosols, sprays, suspensions, or any other form suitable for use. In one embodiment the composition is in the form of a capsule (see e.g. U.S. Patent No. 5,698,155). Other examples of suitable pharmaceutical excipients are described in Remington 's Pharmaceutical Sciences 1447-1676 (Alfonso R. Gennaro eds., 19th ed. 1995), incorporated herein by reference.
In one embodiment the Isoquinoline Compounds are formulated in accordance with routine procedures as a composition adapted for oral administration to human beings. Compositions for oral delivery can be in the form of tablets, lozenges, aqueous or oily suspensions, granules, powders, emulsions, capsules, syrups, or elixirs for example. Orally administered compositions can contain one or more agents, for example, sweetening agents such as fructose, aspartame or saccharin; flavoring agents such as peppermint, oil of wintergreen, or cherry; coloring agents; and preserving agents, to provide a pharmaceutically palatable preparation. Moreover, where in tablet or pill form, the compositions can be coated to delay disintegration and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract thereby providing a sustained action over an extended period of time. Selectively permeable membranes surrounding an osmotically active driving an Isoquinoline Compound are also suitable for orally administered compositions. In these latter platforms, fluid from the environment surrounding the capsule is imbibed by the
driving compound, which swells to displace the agent or agent composition through an aperture. These delivery platforms can provide an essentially zero order delivery profile as opposed to the spiked profiles of immediate release formulations. A time-delay material such as glycerol monostearate or glycerol stearate can also be used. Oral compositions can include standard excipients such as mannitol, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, sodium saccharin, cellulose, and magnesium carbonate. In one embodiment the excipients are of pharmaceutical grade.
In another embodiment the Isoquinoline Compounds can be formulated for intravenous administration. Typically, compositions for intravenous administration comprise sterile isotonic aqueous buffer. Where necessary, the compositions can also include a solubilizing agent. Compositions for intravenous administration can optionally include a local anesthetic such as lignocaine to lessen pain at the site of the injection. Generally, the ingredients are supplied either separately or mixed together in unit dosage form, for example, as a dry lyophilized-powder or water free concentrate in a hermetically sealed container such as an ampule or sachette indicating the quantity of active agent. Where the Isoquinoline Compounds are to be administered by infusion, they can be dispensed, for example, with an infusion bottle containing sterile pharmaceutical grade water or saline. Where the Isoquinoline Compounds are administered by injection, an ampule of sterile water for injection or saline can be provided so that the ingredients can be mixed prior to administration.
The Isoquinoline Compounds can be administered by controlled-release or sustained-release means or by delivery devices that are well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. Examples include, but arc not limited to, those described in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,845,770; 3,916,899; 3,536,809; 3,598,123; 4,008,719; 5,674,533; 5,059,595; 5,591,767; 5,120,548; 5,073,543; 5,639,476; 5,354;556; and 5,733,556, each of which is incorporated herein by reference. Such dosage forms can be used to provide controlled- or sustained-release of one or more active ingredients using, for example, hydropropylmethyl cellulose, other polymer matrices, gels, permeable membranes, osmotic systems, multilayer coatings, microparticles, liposomes, microspheres, or a combination thereof to provide the desired release profile in varying proportions.
Suitable controlled- or sustained-release formulations known to those skilled in the art, including those described herein, can be readily selected for use with the active ingredients of the invention. The invention thus encompasses single unit dosage forms
suitable for oral administration such as, but not limited to, tablets, capsules, gelcaps, and caplets that are adapted for controlled- or sustained-release.
In one embodiment a controlled- or sustained-release composition comprises a minimal amount of an Isoquinoline Compound to treat or prevent the Condition in a minimal amount of time. Advantages of controlled- or sustained-release compositions include extended activity of the drug, reduced dosage frequency, and increased subject compliance. In addition, controlled- or sustained-release compositions can favorably affect the time of onset of action or other characteristics, such as blood levels of the Isoquinoline Compound, and can thus reduce the occurrence of adverse side effects. Controlled- or sustained-release compositions can initially release an amount of an
Isoquinoline Compound that promptly produces the desired therapeutic or prophylactic effect, and gradually and continually release other amounts of the Isoquinoline Compoundto maintain this level of therapeutic or prophylactic effect over an extended period of time. To maintain a constant level of the Isoquinoline Compound in the body, the Isoquinoline Compound can be released from the dosage form at a rate that will replace the amount of Isoquinoline Compound being metabolized and excreted from the body. Controlled- or sustained-release of an active ingredient can be stimulated by various conditions, including but not limited to, changes in pH, changes in temperature, concentration or availability of enzymes, concentration or availability of water, or other physiological conditions or compounds.
The amount of the Isoquinoline Compound that is effective in the treatment or prevention of a Condition can be determined by standard clinical techniques. In addition, in vitro or in vivo assays can optionally be employed to help identify optimal dosage ranges. The precise dose to be employed can also depend on the route of administration, and the seriousness of the condition being treated and can be decided according to the judgment of the practitioner and each subject's circumstances in view of, e.g., published clinical studies. Suitable effective dosage amounts, however, range from about 10 micrograms to about 5 grams about every 4 h, although they are typically about 500 mg or less per every 4 hours, hi one embodiment the effective dosage is about 0.01 mg, 0.5 mg, about 1 mg, about 50 mg, about 100 mg, about 200 mg, about 300 mg, about 400 mg, about 500 mg, about 600 mg, about 700 mg, about 800 mg, about 900 mg, about 1 g, about 1.2 g, about 1.4 g, about 1.6 g, about 1.8 g, about 2.0 g, about 2.2 g, about 2.4 g, about 2.6 g, about 2.8 g, about 3.0 g, about 3.2 g, about 3.4 g, about 3.6 g, about 3.8 g,
about 4.Og, about 4.2 g, about 4.4 g, about 4.6 g, about 4.8 g, and about 5.0 g, every 4 hours. Equivalent dosages can be administered over various time periods including, but not limited to, about every 2 hours, about every 6 hours, about every 8 hours, about every 12 hours, about every 24 hours, about every 36 hours, about every 48 hours, about every 72 hours, about every week, about every two weeks, about every three weeks, about every month, and about every two months. The effective dosage amounts described herein refer to total amounts administered; that is, if more than one Isoquinoline Compound is administered, the effective dosage amounts correspond to the total amount administered. Compositions can be prepared according to conventional mixing, granulating or coating methods, respectively, and the present compositions can contain, in one embodiment, from about 0.1% to about 99%; and in another embodiment from about 1% to about 70% of the Isoquinoline Compoundby weight or volume.
The dosage regimen utilizing the Isoquinoline Compound can be selected in accordance with a variety of factors including type, species, age, weight, sex and medical condition of the subject; the severity of the condition to be treated; the route of administration; the renal or hepatic function of the subject; and the particular Isoquinoline Compound employed. A person skilled in the art can readily determine the effective amount of the drug useful for treating or preventing the Condition.
The Isoquinoline Compounds can be administered in a single daily dose, or the total daily dosage can be administered in divided doses of two, three or four times daily. Furthermore, the Isoquinoline Compounds can be administered in intranasal form via topical use of suitable intranasal vehicles, or via transdermal routes, using those forms of transdermal skin patches well known to those of ordinary skill in that art. To be administered in the form of a transdermal delivery system, the dosage administration can be continuous rather than intermittent throughout the dosage regimen. Other illustrative topical preparations include creams, ointments, lotions, aerosol sprays and gels, wherein the concentration of Isoquinoline Compound ranges from about 0.1% to about 15%, w/w or w/v.
In one embodiment, the compositions comprise an amount of (i) an Isoquinoline Compound and (ii) the other anticancer agent which together are effective to treat or prevent cancer. In another embodiment, the amount of (i) an Isoquinoline Compound and (ii) the other anticancer agent is at least about 0.01% of the combined combination chemotherapy agents by weight of the composition. When intended for oral
administration, this amount can be varied from about 0.1% to about 80% by weight of the composition. Some oral compositions can comprise from about 4% to about 50% of combined amount of (i) an Isoquinoline Compound and (ii) the other anticancer agent by weight of the composition. Other compositions of the present invention are prepared so that a parenteral dosage unit contains from about 0.01% to about 2% by weight of the composition.
The Isoquinoline Compounds can be assayed in vitro or in vivo for the desired therapeutic or prophylactic activity prior to use in humans. Animal model systems can be used to demonstrate safety and efficacy. The present methods for treating or preventing a Condition in a subject in need thereof can further comprise administering another prophylactic or therapeutic agent to the subject being administered an Isoquinoline Compound. In one embodiment the other prophylactic or therapeutic agent is administered in an effective amount. The other prophylactic or therapeutic agent includes, but is not limited to, an anti-inflammatory agent, an anti-renal failure agent, an anti-diabetic agent, and anti-cardiovascular disease agent, an antiemetic agent, a hematopoietic colony stimulating factor, an anxiolytic agent, and an analgesic agent.
In one embodiment, the other prophylactic or therapeutic agent is an agent useful for reducing any potential side effect of an Isoquinoline Compound. Such potential side effects include, but are not limited to, nausea, vomiting, headache, low white blood cell count, low red blood cell count, low platelet count, headache, fever, lethargy, muscle aches, general pain, bone pain, pain at an injection site, diarrhea, neuropathy, pruritis, mouth sores, alopecia, anxiety or depression. hi one embodiment, the Isoquinoline Compound can be administered prior to, concurrently with, or after an anti-inflammatory agent, or on the same day, or within 1 hour, 2 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours or 72 hours of each other.
In another embodiment, the Isoquinoline Compound can be administered prior to, concurrently with, or after an anti-renal failure agent, or on the same day, or within 1 hour, 2 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours or 72 hours of each other. In still another embodiment, the Isoquinoline Compound can be administered prior to, concurrently with, or after an anti-diabetic agent, or on the same day, or within 1 hour, 2 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours or 72 hours of each other.
In yet another embodiment, the Isoquinoline Compound can be administered prior to, concurrently with, or after an anti-cardiovascular disease agent, or on the same day, or within 1 hour, 2 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours or 72 hours of each other.
In a further embodiment, the Isoquinoline Compound can be administered prior to, concurrently with, or after an antiemetic agent, or on the same day, or within 1 hour, 2 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours or 72 hours of each other.
In another embodiment, the Isoquinoline Compound can be administered prior to, concurrently with, or after a hematopoietic colony-stimulating factor, or on the same day, or within 1 hour, 2 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks or 4 weeks of each other. hi still embodiment, the Isoquinoline Compound can be administered prior to, concurrently with, or after an opioid or non-opioid analgesic agent, or on the same day, or within 1 hour, 2 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours or 72 hours of each other.
In yet another embodiment, the Isoquinoline Compound can be administered prior to, concurrently with, or after an anxiolytic agent, or on the same day, or within 1 hour, 2 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours or 72 hours of each other.
Effective amounts of the other prophylactic or therapeutic agents are well known to those skilled in the art. However, it is well within the skilled artisan's purview to determine the other prophylactic or therapeutic agent's optimal effective amount range. In one embodiment of the invention, where another prophylactic or therapeutic agent is administered to a subject, the effective amount of the Isoquinoline Compoundis less than its effective amount would be where the other prophylactic or therapeutic agent is not administered. In this case, without being bound by theory, it is believed that the Isoquinoline Compounds and the other prophylactic or therapeutic agent act synergistically to treat or prevent a Condition.

Thin layer chromatography, TLC, was carried out on precoated TLC plates with silica gel 60 F-254 and preparative TLC on precoated Whatman 6OA TLC plates. All intermediates and final compounds were characterized on the basis of NMR ( 1 H or 13 C) and Mass spectral (MS) or elemental analysis data. Elemental analyses performed at Robertson Microlit. Lab. (Madison, NJ) and provided results for the elements stated with ±0.4% of the theoretical values. Analytical HPLC was performed using a Waters Alliance 2795 series system, equipped with a Waters UV 2996PAD (set at 254 nM) and Micromass MS Quattro LC detector or using Waters Alliance 2690 series system, equipped with the Micromass LCT detector. A YMC-Pack-ODS-AQ (series AQ12505-1546WT, size 150 mm X 4.6 mm, S-5 μM) column was used.

The potency of inhibition on purified PARS enzyme can be subsequently determined for selected Isoquinoline Compounds, and the potency is compared with that of 3-aminobenzamide, a prototypical benchmark PARS inhibitor. The assay is performed in 96 well ELISA plates according to instructions provided with a commercially available PARS inhibition assay kit (for example, from Trevigen, Gaithersburg, MD).
w) Effect of Illustrative Isoquinoline Compounds on PARS activity using cell protection assay
The ability of illustrative Isoquinoline Compounds to inhibit PARS and prevent peroxynitrite induced cytotoxicity was measured in a cell protection assay using the methods described in Jagtap et al., Bioorg. & Med. Chem. Letters 14 (2004) 81-85. Briefly, raw mouse macrophages were cultured then treated with an illustrative Isoquinoline Compound at various concentrations ranging from 10 riM to 10 μM for about 15 minutes. Peroxynitrite (750 μM) was then added to the treated macrophages for a 15 minute incubation period to induce PARS activation. The media was removed and replaced with 0.5 mL HEPES (pH 7.5) containing 0.01 % digitonin and 3 H-NAD (0.5 μCi/mL, final concentration of NAD+ in buffer is 20 nM/L) and the resultant mixture was allowed to stand for 20 minutes. The cells were then scraped from the wells and placed in Eppendorf tubes containing 50% (w/v) of ice-cold TCA (200 μL). The tubes were maintained at 4 °C for four hours, centrifuged at 180Og- for 10 minutes, and the supernatant removed. The resultant pellets were washed with 5% (w/v) TCA (200 μL, 2x), then solubilized overnight in 2 % (w/v) SDS/0.1 N NaOH (250 μL) at 37 °C. The contents of the tubes were then added to ScintiSafe Plus scintillation liquid (6.5 ml, Fisher Scientific) and radioactivity was measured using a liquid scintillation counter (Wallac, Gaithersburg, MD). The results shown in Table 1 demonstrate that the illustrative Isoquinoline Compounds dose-dependently inhibit the activation of PARS.
x) Effects of Isoquinoline Compounds in an in vitro Model of Cell Death
Using an in vitro, oxidant-stimulated thymocyte assay (described, in detail, in Virag et al., Immunology 94(3):345-55, 1998), an illustrative Isoquinoline Compound can be tested for its ability to prevent oxidant-induced suppression of the viability of the cells. As such, this assay represents an in vitro model of reperfusion related cell death in ischemic organs.
y) Effect of Isoquinoline Compounds on in vivo Models of Inflammatory Diseases
In order to substantiate the efficacy of the compounds in inflammatory diseases, the effect of an illustrative Isoquinoline Compound can be determined usng a systemic inflammatory model induced by bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which is reported to
be responsible for causing reperfusion injurys and inflammatory diseases such as septic shock and systemic inflammatory response syndrome in animals {see Parrillo, N. Engl. J. Med., 328:1471-1478 (1993) and Lamping, J. Clin. Invest. 101:2065-2071 (1998).

The efficacy of an illustrative Isoquinoline Compound in a mouse model of ischemic and reperfused gut can be determined according to the method described in Liaudet et al., Shock2000, 14(2):134-41.
In another set of experiments, the effect of an illustrative Isoquinoline Compound in a rat model of middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion can be assayed as described in Abdelkarim et al, IntJMolMed. 2001, 7(3):255-60.
aa) Effect of Illustrative Isoquinoline Compounds in an in vivo Model of Diabetes
PARS inhibitors and PARS deficiency are known to reduce the development of diabetes and the incidence of diabetic complications. In order to substantiate the efficacy of an illustrative Isoquinoline Compound in a diabetes model, a single high-dose streptozotocin model of diabetes can be used as conducted as described in Mabley et al., Br J Pharmacol. 2001, 133C6):909-9: and Soriano et al., Nat Med. 2001, 70}:108-13. Briefly, 160 mg/kg streptozotocin is injected to mice treated with vehicle (control) or with an illustrative Isoquinoline Compound intraperitoneally (3 mg/kg) and 3 days later blood sugar levels are determined using a blood glucose meter.
bb) PARS Inhibitory Activity of Indeno[l,2-c]isoquinolinones: Purified PARS enzyme assay:
The potency of inhibition on purified PARS enzyme was subsequently determined for illustrative compounds, and the potency was compared with that of 3- aminobenzamide, a prototypical benchmark PARS inhibitor. The assay was performed in 96 well ELISA plates according to instructions provided with a commercially available PARS inhibition assay kit (Trevigen, Gaithersburg, MD). Briefly, wells were coated with 1 mg/ml histone (50 μl/well) at 4 C overnight. Plates were then washed four times with PBS and then blocked by adding 50 μl Strep-Diluent (supplied with the kit). After incubation (Ih, 25 0 C), the plates were washed four times with PBS. Appropriate
dilutions of compound was combined with 2x PARS cocktail (1.95 mM NAD + , 50 μM biotinylated NAD + in 50 mM TRIS pH 8.0, 25 mM MgCl 2 ) and high specific activity PARS enzyme (both were supplied with the kit) in a volume of 50 μl. The reaction was allowed to proceed for 30 min at room temperature. After 4 washes in PBS, incorporated biotin was detected by peroxidase-conjugated streptavidin (1 :500 dilution) and TACS Sapphire substrate. The assay confirmed the results of the macrophage-based PARS assay.
cc) Cell protection assay: Raw murine macrophages were treated with Isoquinoline Compounds for 15 minutes prior to the addition of peroxynitrite (750 μM) for a further 15 minutes. For the measurement of PARS activity, the media were removed and replaced with 0.5 ml HEPES (pH 7.5) containing 0.01% digitonin and 3 H-NAD (0.5μCi ml "1 , final concentration OfNAD + in buffer is 20 nM/L) for 20 minutes. The cells were then scraped from the wells and placed in Eppendorf tubes containing 200 μl of 50% (w/v) ice-cold trichloroacetic acid (TCA). The tubes were then placed at 4 0 C. After 4 hr the tubes were centrifuged at 1800g for 10 minutes and the supernatant removed. The pellets were washed twice with 500 μl ice-cold 5% TCA. The pellets were solubilized in 250 μl NaOH (0.1 M) containing 2% SDS overnight at 37 0 C and the PARS activity was then determined by measuring the radioactivity incorporated using a Wallac scintillation counter. The solubilized protein (250 μl) was mixed with 5 ml of scintillant (ScintiSafe Plus, Fisher Scientific) before being counted for 10 minutes. The EC S Q value was calculated from a dose-response curve.
