Abstract
The present invention relates generally to ophthamological drugs. More specifically, the inventon relates to a method of modifying (derivatizing) ophthamological drugs so as to increase their penetration through the cornea. The invention also relates to drugs modified (derivatized) in accordance with the instant method and to the use of same in treating conditions associated with elevated intraocular pressure, particularly, glaucoma.
Description
- This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/620,320 filed Oct. 21, 2004, the entire content of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
- The present invention relates, in general, to ophthamological drugs, and, in particular, to a method of modifying ophthamological drugs so as to increase their penetration through the cornea into the anterior chamber. The invention further relates to such modified drugs and to the use of same in treating diseases/disorders of the eye, such as glaucoma and other conditions related to elevated intraocular pressure.
- Glaucoma is one of the three leading causes of blindness in the United States and a leading cause of blindness in the world. Over 2.2 million people in the United States have glaucoma, and several million more are at risk of developing the disease. As the population ages, the number of individuals with glaucoma will continue to grow since glaucoma affects the oldest individuals disproportionately.
- Glaucoma is not just one disease, rather, it is a spectrum of conditions that share a final common pathway of acquired, progressive deterioration of the neuronal components of the optic nerve. The neuronal death results in loss of vision once a sufficient number of individual nerves are destroyed.
- Factors associated with the development of glaucoma and its progression have been identified and are in the process of being clarified. Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is the leading cause of glaucoma. Pressure is elevated because drainage of aqueous fluid from within the eye is impaired.
- Current treatments for glaucoma center on reducing pressure in the eye by reducing the amount of aqueous fluid being produced or by enhancing the flow of fluid out of the eye by mechanical or other means. Topical agents that are presently in use include miotics, which increase the outflow of fluid (these include Isopto®Carpine, Ocusert®, Pilocar®, and Pilopine®); epinephrines, which also increase the outflow of fluid (these include Epifrin® and Propine®); beta-blockers, which reduce the amount of fluid (these include Betagan®, Betimol®, Betoptic®, Ocupress®, Optipranalol®, and Timoptic®); and carbonic anhydrase inhibitors and alpha-adrenergic agonists, which also reduce the amount of fluid (these include Alphagan®, Iopidine®, and Trusopt®). Prostaglandin analogs, which are also in use, increase the outflow of fluid through a secondary drainage route (these include Lumigan®, Rescula®, Travatan®, and Xalatan®). (Common oral medications include carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (such as Daranide®, Diamox®, and Neptazane®). These agents decrease aqueous humor inflow into the eye.)
- Glaucoma patients may also suffer reduced blood flow to the optic nerve and neuronal tissue, and diminished resistance of the nerve tissue to damage, and the compliance of connective tissue surrounding and supporting the optic nerve. One agent, Memantine, is in phase III clinical trials (Allergan) as an agent that may prove to be neuroprotective.
- The topical application of ophthamological drugs for the treatment of glaucoma requires penetration of the drug through the cornea and into the anterior chamber, which contains aqueous humor, which then drains into the conventional outflow pathway (trabecular meshwork and Schlemm's canal) and the uveal-scleral pathway (unconventional outflow pathway). Intraocular pressure is lowered by drugs acting in the trabecular meshwork/Schlemm's canal and the uveal-scleral pathway. Penetration of the drug through the cornea requires a balance of hydrophobic and hydrophilic characteristics. The drug must be sufficiently soluble in non-polar media to diffuse into the cornea and sufficiently soluble in polar (aqueous) media to diffuse out of the cornea into the aqueous humor.
- Many drugs potentially useful for the treatment of glaucoma are carboxylic acids (e.g., phenoxyacetic acids or cinnaminic acids). Carboxylic acids are typically delivered in buffered aqueous solution; near neutral pH, carboxylic acids exist as the deprotonated carboxylate salt. Ionized carboxylate salts, while soluble in aqueous solution, will not penetrate the cornea. Such drugs can be delivered as pro-drug esters. The use of pro-drug esters, which are cleaved enzymatically (e.g., in the cornea) to regenerate the active compound, can enhance penetration of drug through the cornea into the anterior chamber.
- Unfortunately, many esters are too hydrophobic (non-polar) to diffuse out of the relatively non-polar external layer of the cornea (corneal epithelium) and into the aqueous humor. Further complicating delivery, such compounds are often too insoluble to formulate in aqueous solutions.
- The present invention provides a method of preparing derivatives of ophthamological drugs that contain a carboxyl group so as to overcome solubility and corneal penetration limitations associated with such drugs. The present approach results in the production of pro-drugs that can diffuse into the cornea of mammalian eyes but that are sufficiently water soluble to be released from the cornea into the aqueous humor. Pro-drugs of the invention are activated by esterases in the cornea, with the result that the active drug is present in the aqueous humor of the anterior chamber.
- The present invention relates generally to ophthamological drugs. More specifically, the inventon relates to a method of modifying (derivatizing) ophthamological drugs so as to increase their penetration through the cornea. The invention also relates to drugs modified (derivatized) in accordance with the instant method and to the use of same in treating conditions associated with elevated intraocular pressure, particularly, glaucoma.

Alkyl chains may be straight or branched. Preferred branched alkyl moieties have one or two branches, preferably one branch. Preferred alkyl moieties are saturated. Unsaturated alkyl moieties have one or more double bonds and/or one or more triple bonds. Preferred unsaturated alkyl moieties have one or two double bonds or one triple bond, more preferably one double bond. Alkyl chains may be unsubstituted or substituted with from 1 to 4 substituents. Preferred substituted alkyl moieties are mono-, di-, or trisubstituted. The substituents may be lower alkyl, halo, hydroxy, aryloxy, acyloxy (e.g., acetoxy), carboxy, monocyclic aromatic ring (e.g., phenyl), monocyclic heteroaromatic ring, monocyclic carbocyclic aliphatic ring, monocyclic heterocyclic aliphatic ring, and amino moieties.
- As used herein, “carboxylate” and “carboxylic acid” refer to a chemical moiety characterized by a carbon atom attached to three substituents, viz., another carbon atom by a single bond, an oxygen atom by a double bond, and another oxygen atom by a single bond. The shorthand “XCOO—” and “X—COOH” as used herein shall constitute shorthand for the carboxylate and the carboxylic acid moieties, respectively. In this shorthand “X” shall indicate the rest of the drug moiety that contains the carboxylic acid. It is understood that “X” must contain a carbon atom directly attached to the carboxylic acid moiety.
- As used herein, “opthamological drugs” refers to any chemical compound that is applied to the eye with the intent of producing a biological response or to treat a disease or condition of the eye. Non-limiting examples of opthamological drugs include the prostaglandins, such as travaprost, latanoprost, bimatoprost and similar agents, phenoxyacetic acids, cinnamic and phenylproprionic acids, benzoic acids, fatty acids, and the like. Conditions and diseases include but are not limited to glaucoma and macular degeneration.
- As used herein, “sugar alcohol” refers to an alcohol that contains multiple hydroxyl groups along a carbon chain. “Sugar alcohols” may be naturally occurring, or may be derived from a naturally-occurring sugar or a different sugar alcohol, or may be partially or wholly derived from a synthetic pathway. “Sugar alcohols” may have no more than one hydroxyl per carbon atom of the chain, but they may have less than a 1:1 ratio. “Sugar alcohols” must have at least one free hydroxyl besides the one that is used to create the ester linkage. The carbon chain of the sugar alcohol may have up to 9 carbon atoms, and may be entirely linear, or may be branched, or may contain rings. Other atoms or groups of atoms may independently replace each of the hydroxyl groups as long as there is at least one free hydroxyl group remaining. Non-limiting examples of suitable replacement moieties include alkyl groups, chlorine atoms, methoxy groups, phenoxy groups alkoxy groups, fluorine atoms, amine groups that may be unsubstituted or mono- or di-substituted, amide groups wherein the amide is attached to the sugar alcohol via the carbon or the nitrogen of the amide. When not free, the hydroxyl groups of the sugar alcohol may be linked together via ketal linkages.
- The present invention relates to a method of preparing derivatives of ophthamological drugs that comprise a carboxyl group, including drugs suitable for use in treating glaucoma and other diseases/disorders that are associated with elevated intraocular pressure. The present approach results in the production of compounds that can diffuse into the cornea of the mammalian (e.g., human) eye. According to current concepts, enzymatic activation occurs via esterases present in the cornea, resulting in the production of free acid in the anterior chamber/aqueous humor which can then enter the trabecular meshwork/Schlemm's canal or uveal-scleral pathway.
- It has been surprisingly found that the disadvantages of current ocular therapy with compounds containing a carboxylic acid can be overcome by a very specific modification. The attachment to the carboxylate group of a sugar alcohol by means of an ester linkage creates a molecule that has improved aqueous solubility over simple esters, better corneal penetration than free carboxylates, and yet at the same time being subject to hydrolysis in vivo at a rate that ensures effective treatment of the underlying condition, particularly glaucoma. This solution is general, not being limited to one type of carboxylate, and the suitability of a carboxylate for this type of modification is easily determined by testing the sugar alcohol ester with commercially-available esterase in vitro, without the need for expensive in vivo testing.
- In accordance with the present invention, the carboxylate functionality of the drug is masked (protected) by esterification with a sugar alcohol. Such esterification renders the drug sufficiently hydrophobic to permit diffusion into the cornea. The polar alcohol moiety imparts sufficient aqueous solubility that release from the cornea of active drug into the aqueous humor is effected.
- Non-Limiting Examples and Formulae representing the invention are shown below. Where no stereochemistry is shown, it is to be understood that both the R and the S isomeric forms at each stereocenter are all independently individually and specifically contemplated.

- Preferred sugar alcohols suitable for use in preparing compounds of the invention include the C4 sugars threitol and erythritol, the C5 sugars arabinitol, xylitol, ribitol and lyxitol, and the C6 sugars glucitol, galactitol, mannitol, gulitol, altitol, allitol, iditol and talitol, more preferably, xylitol, ribitol, glucitol and mannitol. The invention includes the use of both D and L isomers.
- Compositions of the present invention comprise a safe and effective amount of one or more compounds of Formulas IA-C, one or more pharmaceutically acceptable salts of Formulas IA-C, or mixtures thereof. As used herein, “safe and effective amount” means an amount of a compound sufficient to significantly induce a positive modification in the condition to be treated, but low enough to avoid serious side effects (at a reasonable benefit/risk ratio), within the scope of sound medical judgment. A safe and effective amount of a compound will vary with the particular condition being treated, the age and physical condition of the patient being treated, the severity of the condition, the duration of the treatment, the nature of concurrent therapy, the particular pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier utilized, and like factors within the knowledge and expertise of the attending physician.
- In addition to the compound, the compositions of the subject invention contain a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier. The term “pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier”, as used herein, means one or more compatible liquid, gel, cream or ointment diluents which are suitable for administration to a subject. The term “compatible”, as used herein, means that the components of the composition are capable of being commingled with the compound, and with each other, in a manner such that there is no interaction which would substantially reduce the pharmaceutical efficacy of the composition under ordinary use situations. Pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers must, of course, be of sufficiently high purity and sufficiently low toxicity to render them suitable for administration to the subject being treated. Some examples of substances which can serve as pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers or components thereof are gelatin, excipients, pyrogen-free water, isotonic saline, and phosphate buffer solutions.
- The choice of a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier to be used in conjunction with a compound is basically determined by the way the compound is to be administered. The compounds of the present invention may be administered systemically. Routes of administration include transdermal; oral; parenterally, including subcutaneous or intravenous injection; topical; and/or intranasal.
- The appropriate amount of the compound to be used may be determined by routine experimentation with animal models. Such models include, but are not limited to the intact and ovariectomized rat models, the ferret, rabbit, canine, and non human primate models as well as disuse models.
- Suitable pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers for topical application include those suited for use in lotions, creams, gels, solutions, and the like. Advantageously, the composition is sterile and can be in dosage unit form, e.g., suitable for topical ocular use. The composition can be packaged in a form suitable for metered application, such as in container equipped with a dropper.
- In a preferred embodiment, the composition is a solution prepared using a physiological saline solution as a carrier. The pH of the solution is, preferably, maintained between 4.5 and 8.0 using an appropriate buffer system. A neutral pH is more preferred. Compositions of the invention can also comprise pharmaceutically acceptable preservatives, stabilizers and/or surfactants.
- In a further embodiment, the present invention relates to a method of treating glaucoma, or other disease or disorder of the eye related to elevated intraocular pressure. The method comprises administering to a mammal (e.g., a human) in need of such treatment an amount of the compound of Formulas IA-C, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in an amount sufficient to effect the treatment. The dosing regimen can vary with the compound used, the patient and/or the effect sought. Selection of an optimum dosing regimen can be readily made by one skilled in the relevant art.
- The invention may provide the means to achieve enhanced penetration and yet retain hydrolysis at a rate sufficient to treat disease, but to provide an assay to determine the optimal sugar alcohol to be attached to each drug.
- It is recognized that not every possible combination of sugar alcohol and drug-containing carboxylic acid will have the optimum characteristics to ensure optimal delivery. To those skilled in the art, determining if the solubility imparted by the particular sugar alcohol is sufficient to meet the concentrations desired for disease treatment is straightforward. The test of corneal penetration and hydrolysis is much less straightforward.
- In one aspect of this invention, a great advantage of this invention is the ease of determining which sugar alcohol ester is the most suitable candidate for in vivo dosing for each drug. Since the sugar alcohol moiety imparts water-solubility to the compounds, an assay can be readily set up to determine the optimal sugar alcohol for each drug moiety based on the release rate thus: A commercially-available preparation of esterase, such as porcine liver esterase (Sigma Corp., St. Louis), is prepared at a standard concentration. The drug-sugar alcohol combination, dissolved in methanol or a methanol-water or methanol-acetonitrile combination, is added dropwise to the esterase and the rate at which the compound is released from the alcohol is determined. The analytical technique used to determine the amount of free acid will vary with the acid used, but a typical procedure would be by TLC, or reverse-phase TLC, or HPLC or by Mass Spectroscopy. One skilled in the art can readily determine the optimal analytical method for each sugar-acid pair evaluated. This assay can easily be adapted to be run in a 96-well plate format, or other high-throughput method of determining activity.
- The best candidates can then be taken to in vivo testing. In vivo pharmacological activity for glaucoma can be determined using assays designed to test the ability of the subject compounds to decrease intraocular pressure. Examples of such assays are described in the following reference, incorporated herein: C. liljebris, G. Selen, B. Resul, J. Stemschantz, and U. Hacksell, “Derivatives of 17-Phenyl-18,19,20-trinorprostaglandin Isopropyl Ester: Potential Antiglaucoma Agents”, Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, Vol. 38 No. 2 (1995), pp. 289-304.
- It is recognized that each drug and each disease state will have its own particular optimal delivery, and that one skilled in the art may modify the guidelines given herein. Combinations which are too quickly hydrolyzed offer no advantage over the free acids, and compounds which have no detectible hydrolysis in the assay are likewise not useful. It is the purpose of this invention to provide compounds which release their carboxcyclic acids under the conditions described, with a half-life of greater than one minute but less than seven days. A more preferred embodiment of the invention provides compounds that are released in greater than five minutes and less than 4 days, and still more preferred are compounds which are released in greater than five minutes and in less than 24 hours.
- Certain aspects of the present invention are described in the non-limiting Examples that follow.

- To a stirring suspension of ticrynafen (0.40 g, 1.2 mmol) in anhydrous benzene (1.5 mL) was added thionyl chloride (0.18 mL, 2 equiv) at room temperature. The reaction was heated to reflux, at which time all ticrynafen dissolved. Reflux was maintained for 2.5 h and the reaction was cooled and concentrated at reduced pressure. The residual oil was resuspended in anhydrous THF (2 mL), and added dropwise at room temperature to a stirring solution of 1,2:3,4-di-O-isoproylideneribitol (0.28 g), triethylamine (0.57 mL) in THF (1 mL). The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 16 h, concentrated at reduced pressure and resuspended in EtOAc (100 mL). This solution was extracted with water (2×50 mL) and brine (50 mL), and dried (anhydrous MgSO4). The solvents were evaporated in vacuo, and the crude products were purified by flash chromatography (eluting with 25-50% EtOAc in hexane) to give the desired ester (0.266 g).
- The ester obtained above (0.266g) was dissolved in 90% aqueous trifluoroacetic acid (10 mL) at 0° C. After being stirred at 0° C. for 1 h, the reaction solution was concentrated at reduced pressure. Excess trifluoroacetic acid was removed by azeotropic distillation with dioxane at reduced pressure. The oily residue was purified by flash chromatography (eluting with 10% MeOH in DCM+0.1% triethylamine), affording 5-O-ribitol[2,3-dichloro-4-(thiophene-2-carbonyl)]phenoxyacetate (0.11 g). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 300 MHz) δ3.47 (m, 2H), 3.76 (dd, 1H), 3.84 (m, 1H), 3.96 (dd, 1H), 4.25 (m, 1H), 4.39 (t, 1H), 4.58 (t, 1H), 4.64 (d, 1H), 4.77 (d, 2H), 4.94 (d, 2H), 5.06 (s, 2H), 6.69 (d, 1H), 7.20 (d, 1H), 7.23 (d, 1H), 7.48 (d, 1H), 7.51 (d, 1H), 8.15 (d, 1H); 13CNMR (DMSO-d6, 75 MHz) δ61.8, 63.1, 71.6, 72.0, 72.5, 72.6, 83.2, 112.0, 121.4, 127.8, 129.2, 129.7, 132.0, 136.8, 137.3, 142.8, 155.7, 168.0, 185.2; MS (FAB+): m/z 465 (M+H+).
- Ticrynafen (Formula IV) is a drug of known activity against glaucoma. The free acid, as the carboxylate salt, has little or no activity presumably because penetration through the cornea into the anterior chamber is negligible. Simple esters of ticrynafen are highly insoluble and also show little or no activity. In contrast, the ribitol ester of ticrynafen (Formula III) is completely soluble in petrolatum/lanolin mixtures. The compound reduces intraocular pressure (IOP) in a dose-dependent fashion in Dutch-Belted white rabbits (see Example 3 and
FIGS. 1-4 ). - Ticrynafen-ribitol ester was formulated as an ointment in 5, 10, and 15% concentrations. The Dutch Belted rabbit model was used to test the formulation for both pressure lowering and side effects.
- Baseline intraocular pressures were obtained by placing one drop of proparacaine in each eye followed by pressure measurements utilizing a Pneumotonometer®. One eye of each rabbit was then given 0.1 mg of ticrynafen-ribitol ester ointment topically in the inferior conjunctival sac. The second eye was used as a control with application of lanolin ointment without drug. Repeat doses were given at 24 hour intervals for a total of three doses (0, 24, and 48 hours). Intraocular pressures were recorded every 12 hours for one week. A total of twelve rabbits received the 5% ointment, eight rabbits the 10% ointment, and eight rabbits the 15% ointment.
- Pressure reduction for each concentration is shown in
FIGS. 1, 2 and 3.FIG. 4 presents the 10% data with statistically significant timepoints indicated by double asterisks. - Maximal pressure reduction for each concentration is as follows:
5% Ticrynafen-Ribitol ester: 11% at 54 hours 10% Ticrynafen-Ribitol ester: 18% at 36 hours 15% Ticrynafen-Ribitol ester: 13% at 60 hours -
- Zinc chloride (13.6g, 100 mmol) was stirred with anhydrous acetone (110 mL) at room temperature for 15 min, and xylitol (7.6 g, 50 mmol) was added. After being stirred at room temperature for 24 h, the reaction solution was treated with 5N NaOH solution (180 mL), giving a two-phase solution with some white precipitates in the upper phase. The mixture was filtered off, and the filtrate was extracted with chloroform (4×100 mL). The combined extracts were washed with brine (2×60 mL), and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. Evaporation of the solvents with rotary evaporator afforded the crude products (12 g). A portion (˜3 g) of the crude products was purified by silica gel flash chromatography (eluting with 20-25% EtOAc in hexanes) to give 1,2:3,4-di-O-isoproylidenexylitol (1.6 g) as viscous oil, which crystallized on storage.
- To an ice-cold stirred solution of 1,2:3,4-di-O-isoproylidenexylitol (2.4 g, 10 mmol) in anhydrous DMF (20 mL) was added 60% NaH (0.8 g, 20 mmol) in one portion. After the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 1 h, benzyl bromide (3.56 mL, 30 mmol) was added at 0° C. in one portion. The whole mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 1 h, then at room temperature for additional 2 h. The reaction was quenched by adding ice-cold H2O (80 mL) at 0° C., and the resulting mixture was extracted with ether (3×100 mL). The ethereal extracts were washed with H2O (2×80 mL) and brine (80 mL), and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. Evaporation of the solvents with rotary evaporator afforded the crude products, which was purified by silica gel flash chromatography (eluting with 10% EtOAc in hexanes) to give 5-benzyloxy-1,2:3,4-di-O-isoproylidene-xylitol (2.7 g, 83% yield) as viscous oil.
- A trifluoroacetic acid/water solution (9:1 v/v, 5 mL) was added to 5-benzyloxy-1,2:3,4-di-O-isoproylidene-xylitol (640 mg, 2 mmol) at room temperature, and stirred at room temperature for 90 min. Then the dark brown solution was concentrated in vacuo to remove most of the solvents, followed by co-evaporated with toluene (2×20 mL). The residue was purified by silica gel flash chromatography (eluting with 0-10% MeOH in EtOAc) to give 5-benzyloxy xylitol (250 mg, 51% yield) as viscous oil.
- 2,6-Lutidine (0.93 mL, 8 mmol, 8 eq) was added dropwise to an ice-cold stirred solution of 5-benzyloxyxylitol (240 mg) in anhydrous DCM (10 mL), and tert-butyldimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (TBDMSOTf) (1.38 mL, 6 mmol, 6 eq) was added dropwise. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 1 h, then allowed to warm to room temperature, and the stirring was continued for additional 14 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (150 mL), washed with 1N HCl aqueous solution (2×40 mL) and brine (2×50 mL), and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. Evaporation of the solvents with rotary evaporator afforded the crude products, which was purified by silica gel flash chromatography (eluting with 5% EtOAc in hexanes) to give 5-benzyloxy-1,2,3,4-tetra(tert-butylydimethylsilyloxy)xylitol (650 mg, 93% yield) as viscous oil.
- 5-Benzyloxy-1,2,3,4-tetra(tert-butylydimethylsilyloxy)xylitol (600 mg, 0.86 mmol) dissolved in EtOAc (10 mL) was hydrogenated (balloon as H2 container) in the presence of 10% Pd/C (100 mg) until no more the starting material could be detected on TLC plate (about 10 h). The catalyst was removed by filtration through a Celite pad, with rinsing the solid with EtOAc. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness, and the residue was purified by silica gel flash chromatography (eluting with 8% EtOAc in hexanes) to give 1,2,3,4-tetra(tert-butylydimethylsilyloxy)xylitol (330 mg, 63% yield) as white solid.
- To a stirred solution of (9α,11α,15R)-15-[2-benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl]-16,17,18,19,20-pentanor-5,6,13,14-tetrahydro-9,11,15-tris(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)prostanoic acid (310 mg, 0.4 mmol) 1,2,3,4-tetra(tert-butylydimethylsilyloxy)xylitol (330 mg, 0.54 mmol), and DMAP (˜10 mg) in anhydrous DCM (15 mL) was added N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) (206 mg, 1 mmol), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 10 h. The resulting suspension was filtered off, and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo, and purified by silica gel flash chromatography (eluting with 5% ether in hexanes) to give the ester (300 mg, 55% yield) as white solid.
- Tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF, 1.0M solution in THF) (3.1 mL, 3.1 mmol, 14 eq) was added to a stirred solution of the ester obtained above (300 mg, 0.22 mmol) in anhydrous THF (10 mL), and the solution was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. The solution was concentrated in vacuo, and the residue was purified by silica gel flash chromatography (eluting with 10% MeOH in EtOAc) to give 5-O-{(9α,11α,15R)-15-[2-benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl]-16,17,18,19,20-pentanor-5,6,13,14-tetrahydro-9,11,15-trihydroxyprostanoyl}xylitol (100 mg, 82% yield) as highly viscous oil. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CD3OD): δ1.27-2.10 (m, 18H), 2.30 (t, 2H, J=7.5 Hz), 3.60-4.19 (m, 9H), 4.96 (t, 1H, J=6.3 Hz), 7.20 (s, 1H), 7.25-7.35 (m, 2H), 7.68-7.80 (m, 2H); 13C NMR (75 MHz, CD3OD): δ24.81, 27.81, 28.22, 28.76, 28.99, 29.53, 33.84, 36.94, 42.80, 49.94, 51.08, 63.05, 65.60, 70.23, 70.24, 70.87, 72.55, 72.56, 77.36, 119.90, 122.17, 123.22, 123.84, 124.05, 139.50, 139.98, 150.47, 174.43; MS (FAB−): m/z 553 (M−1).
- The prostaglandin derivative shown in Formula II shows strong activity against glaucoma. The isopropyl ester of the Formula II compound is highly insoluble in aqueous solution (<0.001% in normal saline). In contrast, the xylitol ester shown in Formula V is soluble to at least 0.03% (see Example 6 for preparation). Furthermore, the compound shown in Formula V is readily hydrolyzed by pig liver esterase, strongly suggesting that the compound will be cleaved by endogenous esterases, releasing active drug.
- The xylitol prostaglandin ester of Formula V (also called AR101) was formulated as a 0.004% solution for topical administration. The Dutch Belted Rabbit model was used to test the formulation for both pressure lowering and side effects.
- Baseline intraocular pressures were obtained by placing one drop of proparacaine in each eye followed by pressure measurements with a Pneumotonometer®. One eye of each rabbit received a loading dose of 3 drops 0.004% AR101 on
day 0 andday 10. One drop of AR101 was given daily on days 1-7 and 10-14. No drug was given on days 8 and 9. The contralateral control eye received balanced salt solution drops without AR101. Intraocular pressure measurements were recorded every 12 hours for two weeks. -
FIG. 5 demonstrates pressure recordings for each eye. Statistically significant pressure reductions between eyes were observed ondays -
- To a stirred solution of D-(+)-ribonolactone (9.93 g, 67 mmol) in
anhydrous 2,2-dimethoxypropane (40 mL) was added pyridinium p-toluene-4-sulfonate (PPTS) (0.37 g), and the reaction mixture was heated with stirring at 50° C. for 1 h. After evaporation of the solvent with rotary evaporator, the oily residue was dissolved in EtOAc (300 mL), then washed with saturated NaHCO3 (2×80 mL) and brine (2×80 mL), and dried (anhydrous Na2SO4).
