Description
[0001] The present invention relates to certain heterocyclic compounds, processes and intermediates used in their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in therapy.
[0002] Chemokines play an important role in immune and inflammatory responses in various diseases and disorders, including asthma and allergic diseases, as well as autoimmune pathologies such as rheumatoid arthritis and atherosclerosis. These small secreted molecules are a growing superfamily of 8-14 kDa proteins characterised by a conserved cysteine motif. At the present time, the chemokine superfamily comprises three groups exhibiting characteristic structural motifs, the C-X-C, C-C and C-X<sub>3</sub>-C families. The C-X-C and C-C families have sequence similarity and are distinguished from one another on the basis of a single amino acid insertion between the NH-proximal pair of cysteine residues. The C-X<sub>3</sub>-C family is distinguished from the other two families on the basis of having a triple amino acid insertion between the NH-proximal pair of cysteine residues.
[0003] The C-X-C chemokines include several potent chemoattractants and activators of neutrophils such as interleukin-8 (IL-8) and neutrophil-activating peptide 2 (NAP-2).
<5 [0004] The C-C chemokines include potent chemoattractants of monocytes and lymphocytes but not neutrophils. Examples include human monocyte chemotactic proteins 1-3 (MCP-1, MCP-2 and MCP-3), RANTES (Regulated on Activation, Normal T Expressed and Secreted), eotaxin and the macrophage inflammatory proteins 1a and 18 (MIP1aand ΜΙΡ-1β).
[0005] The C-X<sub>3</sub>-C chemokine (also known as fractalkine) is a potent chemoattractant and activator of microglia in <sup>20</sup> the central nervous system (CNS) as well as of monocytes, T cells, NK cells and mast cells.
[0006] Studies have demonstrated that the actions of the chemokines are mediated by subfamilies of G proteincoupled receptors, among which are the receptors designated CCR1, CCR2, CCR2A, CCR2B, CCR3, CCR4, CCR5, CCR6, CCR7, CCR8, CCR9, CCR10 and CCR11 (for the C-C family); CXCR1, CXCR2, CXCR3, CXCR4 and CXCR5 (forthe C-X-C family) and CX<sub>3</sub>CR1 for the C-X<sub>3</sub>-C family. These receptors represent good targets for drug development <sup>25</sup> since agents which modulate these receptors would be useful in the treatment of disorders and diseases such as those mentioned above.
[0007] International Patent Application WO 00/39129 disclose certain pteridine derivatives, which are useful for the treatment and/or prevention of transplant-rejections and/or for the treatment of inflammatory conditions.
[0008] International Patent Application WO 01/19825, having a publication date of 22 March 2001, discloses 8H<sup>30</sup> pteridine-7-ones, tetrahydropteridine-7-ones, 5H,B/7-pteridine-6,7-diones and pteridine-7-ureas that inhibit cyclin-dependent serine/threonine kinase, Wee 1 tyrosine kinase, and growth factor-mediated tyrosine kinase enzymes, and as such are useful to treat cell proliferation diseases and disorders.

Biochem, volume 4, /978, Kiriasis et al. pages 49-53 disclose 4-amino-7,8-dihydro35 pteridin-7-one substituted at the 2-position by alkylthid groups. These compounds are intermediates in the preparation of further products.

Thus, the preparation of the compounds of formula (I) may involve, at an appropriate stage, the removal of one or more protecting groups. The protection and deprotection of functional groups is fully described in 'Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry', edited by J. W. F. McOmie, Plenum Press (1973), and 'Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis', 2nd edition, T. W. Greene & P. G. M. Wuts, Wiley-lnterscience (1991).

High pressure liquid chromatography purification was performed using either a Waters Micromass LCZ with a Waters 600 pump controller, Waters 2487 detector and Gilson FC024 fraction collector or a Waters Delta Prep 4000. The abbreviations m.p. and DMSO used in the examples stand for melting point and dimethyl sulphoxide respectively.

Pharmacological Data
Ligand Binding Assay
[0177] [<sup>125</sup>l]IL-8 (human, recombinant) was purchased from Amersham, U.K. with a specific activity of 2,OOOCi/mmol. All other chemicals were of analytical grade. High levels of hrCXCR2 were expressed in HEK 293 cells (human embryo kidney 293 cells ECACC No. 85120602) (Lee etal. (1992) J. Biol Chem. 267 pp16283-16291). hrCXCR2 cDNA was amplified and cloned from human neutrophil mRNA. The DNA was cloned into PCRScript (Stratagene) and clones were identified using DNA. The coding sequence was sub-cloned into the eukaryotic expression vector RcCMV (Invitrogen). Plasmid DNA was prepared using Quiagen Megaprep 2500 and transfected into HEK,293 cells using Lipofectamine reagent (Gibco BRL). Cells of the highest expressing clone were harvested in phosphate-buffered saline containing 0.2%(w/v) ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and centrifuged (200g, 5min.). The cell pellet was resuspended in ice cold homogenisation buffer [1 OmM HEPES (pH 7.4), 1 mM dithiothreitol, 1 mM EDTA and a panel of protease inhibitors (1 mM phenyl methyl sulphonyl fluoride, 2μ9/π1Ι soybean trypsin inhibitor, 3mM benzamidine, 0.5pg/ ml leupeptin and 100pg/ml bacitracin)] and the cells left to swell for 10 minutes. The cell preparation was disrupted using a hand held glass mortar/PTFE pestle homogeniser and cell membranes harvested by centrifugation (45 minutes, 100,000g, 4°C). The membrane preparation was stored at -70°C in homogenisation buffer supplemented with Tyrode's salt solution (137mM NaCI, 2.7mM KCI, 0.4mM NaH<sub>2</sub>PO<sub>4</sub>), 0.1%(w/v) gelatin and 10%(v/v) glycerol.
[0178] All assays were performed in a 96-well MultiScreen 0.45gm filtration plates (Millipore, U.K.). Each assay contained ~50pM [<sup>125</sup>l]IL-8 and membranes (equivalent to -200,000 cells) in assay buffer [Tyrode's salt solution supplemented with 10mM HEPES (pH 7.4), 1.8mM CaCI<sub>2</sub>,1mM MgCI<sub>2</sub>,0.125mg/ml bacitracin and 0.1%(w/v) gelatin]. In addition, a compound of formula (I) according, to the Examples was pre-dissolved in DMSO and added to reach a final concentration of 1 %(v/v) DMSO. The assay was initiated with the addition of membranes and after 1.5 hours at room temperature the membranes were harvested by filtration using a Millipore MultiScreen vacuum manifold and washed twice with assay buffer (without bacitracin). The backing plate was removed from the MultiScreen plate assernbly, the filters dried at room temperature, punched out and then counted on a Cobra γ-counter.
[0179] The compounds of formula (I) according to the Examples were found to have IC<sub>50</sub> values of less than (<) 10μΜ.
Intracellular Calcium Mobilisation Assay
[0180] Human neutrophils were prepared from EDTA-treated peripheral blood, as previously described (Baly et al. (1997) Methods in Enzymology 287 pp70-72), in storage buffer [Tyrode's salt solution (137mM NaCI, 2.7mM KCI, 0.4mM NaH<sub>2</sub>PO<sub>4</sub>) supplemented with 5.7mM glucose and 10mM HEPES (pH 7.4)].
[0181] The chemokine GROa (human, recombinant) was purchased from R&D Systems (Abingdon, U.K.). All other chemicals were of analytical grade. Changes in intracellular free calcium were measured fluorometrically by loading neutrophils with the calcium sensitive fluorescent dye, fluo-3, as described previously (Merritt etal. (1990) Biochem. J. 269, pp513-519). Cells were loaded for 1 hour at 37°C in loading buffer (storage buffer with 0.1%(w/v) gelatin) containing 5μΜ fluo-3 AM ester, washed with loading buffer and then resuspended in Tyrode's salt solution supplemented with 5.7mM glucose, 0.1%(w/v) bovine serum albumin (BSA), 1.8mM CaCI<sub>2</sub> and 1 mM MgCI<sub>2</sub>. The cells were pipetted into black walled, clear bottom, 96 well micro plates (Costar, Boston, U.S.A.) and centrifuged (200g, 5 minutes, room temperature).
[0182] A compound of formula (I) according to the Examples was pre-dissolved in DMSO and added to a final concentration of 0.1 %(v/v) DMSO. Assays were initiated by the addition of an Aj<sub>0</sub> concentration of GROa and the transient increase in fluo-3 fluorescence (λ<sub>Εχ</sub> =490nm and X<sub>Em</sub> = 520nm) monitored using a FLIPR (Fluorometric Imaging Plate Reader, Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, U.S.A.).
[0183] The compounds of formula (I) according to the Examples were tested and found to be antagonists of the CXCR2 receptor in human neutrophils. ה׳-
