FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to novel 2-substituted-4-substituted-1,3 dioxolanes which are useful as antiviral agents.
PRIOR ART
Retroviral infections are a serious cause of disease and among others the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is an immunosuppressive disease associated with life-threatening opportunistic infections and high susceptibility to unusual neoplasms (Kaposi sarcoma for instance). The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has been recognized as the etiologic agent of AIDS and compounds having an inhibitory effect against HIV multiplication have been actively sought.
One product which has been proposed for the treatment of AIDS is the 3′-azido-2′-3′-dideoxythymidine commonly referred to as AZT. The activity of this compound was disclosed by MITSUYA et al. in Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., U.S.A. 1985, <u style="single">82</u>, 7096. The compound has the structure: <chemistry id="chem0001" num="0001"><img file="EP0337713A2_D0001.tif" /></chemistry>
This compound is useful in protecting AIDS carriers against the cytopathogenic effect of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) which is the etiologic agent of AIDS.
Mitsuya et al. have also disclosed in Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., U.S.A. 1986, <u style="single">86</u>, 1911 a group of 2′,3′-dideoxynucleosides which appear to possess potent protective activity against HIV-induced cytopathogenicity. A typical such compound is the 2′,3′-dideoxycytidine of the formula: <chemistry id="chem0002" num="0002"><img file="EP0337713A2_D0002.tif" /></chemistry>
Balzarini et al. in Biochem. Biophys. Res. Comm. 1986, <u style="single">140</u>, 735 disclose that the unsaturated analog of the 2′,3′-dideoxycytidine also possesses antiretroviral effectiveness. This unsaturated analog has the formula: <chemistry id="chem0003" num="0003"><img file="EP0337713A2_D0003.tif" /></chemistry>
Baba et al. in Biochem. Biophys. Res. Comm. 1987, <u style="single">142</u>, 128 have described the 2′,3′-unsaturated analog of the 2′,3′-dideoxythymidine which is a potent selective inhibitor of HIV replication and which corresponds to the formula: <chemistry id="chem0004" num="0004"><img file="EP0337713A2_D0004.tif" /></chemistry>
Analogues of the 3′-azido-2′,3′-dideoxythymidine are the 3′-azido-2′,3′-dideoxyuridine of the formula: <chemistry id="chem0005" num="0005"><img file="EP0337713A2_D0005.tif" /></chemistry> where y is bromine or iodine. These have been disclosed as having an inhibitory activity against Moloney murine leukemia by T.S. Lin et al., in J. Med. Chem. 1987, <u style="single">30</u>, 440.
Finally, the 3′fluoro analogues of the 2′,3′-dideoxycytidine and of the 2′,3′-dideoxythymidine have been disclosed by Herdewijn et al. in J. Med. Chem. 1987, <u style="single">30</u>, 1270 as having potent antiretroviral activity (anti-HIV). These analogues correspond to the formulae: <chemistry id="chem0006" num="0006"><img file="EP0337713A2_D0006.tif" /></chemistry>
The most potent anti-HIV compounds thus far reported are 2′,3′-dideoxynucleosides, more particularly, 2′,3′-dideoxycytidine (ddCyd) and 3′-azido-2′,3′-dideoxythymidine (AzddThd or AZT). These compounds are also active against other kinds of retroviruses (such as the Moloney murine leukemia virus). It is because of the increasing incidence and the life-threatening characteristics of AIDS that efforts are being expended to discover and develop new non-toxic and potent inhibitors of HIV and blockers of its infectivity.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide effective anti-HIV compounds of low toxicity and a synthesis of such new compounds that is readily feasible.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In accordance with the present invention there is provided novel 2-substituted-4-substituted-1,3-dioxolanes which are particularly useful as antiviral agents.
More specifically, the novel 2-substituted-4-substituted-1,3-dioxolane derivatives of the present invention correspond to the following formula (L): <chemistry id="chem0007" num="0007"><img file="EP0337713A2_D0007.tif" /></chemistry> wherein R₁ is selected from H, an aliphatic acyl radical from 2 to 16 carbon atoms, a benzoyl which may be substituted in any position by a halogen (bromine, chlorine, fluorine or iodine); a lower alkyl, a lower alkoxy, nitro and trifluoromethyl groups and R₂ is a heterocyclic radical selected from: <chemistry id="chem0008" num="0008"><img file="EP0337713A2_D0008.tif" /></chemistry> wherein R₃ and R₄ are respectively selected from H and a lower alkyl radical having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms, R₄ is an alkenyl radical and R₅ is selected from a lower alkyl or alkenyl radical having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms or a halogen selected from fluoro and iodo.
Also within the scope of the present invention are the 2,4-disubstituted-1,3-dioxolanes of Formula (L) wherein R₂ could be any nucleoside base analog, those base analogues being known by those still in the art of nucleoside chemistry.
There are two asymmetric carbons (asterisks) in the disubstituted 1,3-dioxolane molecule which provide for two racemic forms (±) and therefore four optical isomers. These racemates differ in the relative configurations of the 2- and 4-substituents which can either assume the <u style="single">cis</u>- and <u style="single">trans</u>-configurations. The use of a graphic representation of the 2,4-disubstituted-1,3-dioxolanes of Formula (L) is meant to include the <u style="single">dl</u> racemic mixture as well as the separate <u style="single">d</u> and <u style="single">l</u> isomers thereof.
Also in accordance with the present invention, there is provided a pharmaceutical composition for administration to persons infected with the AIDS virus or other infectious agent which comprises a therapeutically effective amount of the 2,4-disubstituted dioxolane of Formula (L) or pharmaceutically acceptable salt in association with a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. The amount of active ingredient which is contained in a single dosage form will vary depending upon the host treated as well as the frequency and the mode of adminsitration.
Also within the scope of the present invention is a method for treating AIDS-infected persons which comprises administering to said persons a therapeutically effective amount of 2,4-disubstituted-1,3-dioxolane of Formula (L). Also within the scope of the present invention is any combination of a 2,4-disubstituted-1,3-dioxolane of Formula (L) with another drug where such combination is therapeutically more advantageous than either drug given above.

ANTIVIRAL ACTIVITY
All of the compounds of the preferred embodiments are novel and some are valuable for their properties as non-toxic inhibitors of the primary replication of HIV-1 in previously uninfected T-lymphocytes over a prolonged period of time.
In particular, the compounds having the formula XII possess desirable properties, i.e., antagonism of HIV infectivity towards T-lymphocytes in the absence of cytotoxicity.
In vitro testing was conducted on the compounds to determine their inhibitory properties. Table 1 represents the results of a typical experiment. The figures reported are the micromolar concentrations in the incubation media which effect the ability of T-lymphocyte H-9 cells to be infected by HIV-1 following the protocol of H. Mitsuya and S. Broder, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 1986, <u style="single">83</u>, 1911-1915; the level of infection being measured by the level of reverse transcriptase activity (RTA) as assayed in the usual manner with tritiated thymidine triphosphate (TTP). As a control drug, 2′,3′-dideoxy-3′azido-thymidine (AZT) was used and the RTA measured in the incubation medium after 8, 12 and 26 days of exposure to the inhibitor. The values in Table 1 reflect the total number of virus particles in the incubation medium. <tables id="tabl0001" num="0001"><table frame="all"><title>TABLE 1</title><tgroup cols="6" colsep="1" rowsep="0"><colspec colnum="1" colname="col1" colwidth="26.25mm" /><colspec colnum="2" colname="col2" colwidth="26.25mm" /><colspec colnum="3" colname="col3" colwidth="26.25mm" /><colspec colnum="4" colname="col4" colwidth="26.25mm" /><colspec colnum="5" colname="col5" colwidth="26.25mm" /><colspec colnum="6" colname="col6" colwidth="26.25mm" /><thead valign="top"><row><entry namest="col1" nameend="col6" align="center">Example of the effects to prototype compounds <u style="single">trans</u>-XII, <u style="single">cis</u>-XIV and AZT on ability of H-9 cells to be infected by HIV-1.</entry></row><row><entry namest="col1" nameend="col6" align="center">RTA activity (cpm) after:</entry></row><row><entry namest="col1" nameend="col1" align="center"><u style="single">Expt.#</u></entry><entry namest="col2" nameend="col2" align="center"><u style="single">Inhibitor</u></entry><entry namest="col3" nameend="col3" align="center"><u style="single">Conc.-</u></entry><entry namest="col4" nameend="col4" align="center"><u style="single">8 days</u></entry><entry namest="col5" nameend="col5" align="center"><u style="single">12 days</u></entry><entry namest="col6" nameend="col6" align="center"><u style="single">26 days</u></entry></row></thead><tbody valign="top"><row><entry namest="col1" nameend="col1" align="right">1</entry><entry namest="col2" nameend="col2" align="left">none</entry><entry namest="col3" nameend="col3" align="right">-</entry><entry namest="col4" nameend="col4" align="right">198,612</entry><entry namest="col5" nameend="col5" align="right">327,570</entry><entry namest="col6" nameend="col6" align="right">239,019</entry></row><row><entry namest="col1" nameend="col1" /><entry namest="col2" nameend="col2" align="left"><u style="single">trans</u>-XII</entry><entry namest="col3" nameend="col3" align="right">10µM</entry><entry namest="col4" nameend="col4" align="right">4,608</entry><entry namest="col5" nameend="col5" align="right">83,462</entry><entry namest="col6" nameend="col6" align="right">312,478</entry></row><row><entry namest="col1" nameend="col1" /><entry namest="col2" nameend="col2" align="left"><u style="single">trans</u>-CII</entry><entry namest="col3" nameend="col3" align="right">50µM</entry><entry namest="col4" nameend="col4" align="right">1,319</entry><entry namest="col5" nameend="col5" align="right">758</entry><entry namest="col6" nameend="col6" align="right">1,732</entry></row><row><entry namest="col1" nameend="col1" /><entry namest="col2" nameend="col2" align="left">AZT</entry><entry namest="col3" nameend="col3" align="right">20µM</entry><entry namest="col4" nameend="col4" align="right">633</entry><entry namest="col5" nameend="col5" align="right">419</entry><entry namest="col6" nameend="col6" align="right">821</entry></row><row><entry namest="col1" nameend="col1" align="right">2</entry><entry namest="col2" nameend="col2" align="left">none</entry><entry namest="col3" nameend="col3" align="right">-</entry><entry namest="col4" nameend="col4" align="right">64,769</entry><entry namest="col5" nameend="col5" align="right">119,580</entry><entry namest="col6" nameend="col6" align="right">227,471</entry></row><row><entry namest="col1" nameend="col1" /><entry namest="col2" nameend="col2" align="left"><u style="single">cis</u>-XIV</entry><entry namest="col3" nameend="col3" align="right">20µM</entry><entry namest="col4" nameend="col4" align="right">2,618</entry><entry namest="col5" nameend="col5" align="right">130,563</entry><entry namest="col6" nameend="col6" align="right">210,583</entry></row><row><entry namest="col1" nameend="col1" /><entry namest="col2" nameend="col2" align="left"><u style="single">cis</u>-XIV</entry><entry namest="col3" nameend="col3" align="right">50µM</entry><entry namest="col4" nameend="col4" align="right">1,132</entry><entry namest="col5" nameend="col5" align="right">39,752</entry><entry namest="col6" nameend="col6" align="right">231,609</entry></row><row rowsep="1"><entry namest="col1" nameend="col1" /><entry namest="col2" nameend="col2" align="left">AZT</entry><entry namest="col3" nameend="col3" align="right">20µM</entry><entry namest="col4" nameend="col4" align="right">587</entry><entry namest="col5" nameend="col5" align="right">1,316</entry><entry namest="col6" nameend="col6" align="right">679</entry></row></tbody></tgroup></table></tables>
It is apparent from the table that prototype compound <u style="single">trans</u>-XII exhibits potent inhibitory activity. Other analogues displayed variable degrees of antiviral activity. Accordingly, as it is the rule for certain analogues of nucleosides, <u style="single">trans</u>-XII and selected analogues are expected to demonstrate <u style="single">in vivo</u> activity as inhibitors of retroviruses. Such compounds may also be used in combination with other antiviral agents at reduced doses, thus lowering their toxicity potential.
TOXICITY
In contrast to the results obtained with AZT or with other di-deoxynucleosides analogues, <u style="single">in vitro</u> toxicity experiments showed that the compound trans-XII is non toxic even at concentration as high as 200µM. In spite of the AZT activity, its serious bone marrow toxicity limits its therapeutic usefulness. It is then highly desirable to provide with new active antiviral agents which would be devoided of toxic side effects.
