Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a novel morpholine compounds having affinity for
CCR3. The compound and a salt thereof are useful as a drug for the treatment and/or
prophylaxis of a disease wherein a cell having CCR3 plays an important role in the
onset, progress and retention of pathology, such as asthma, sinusitis, atopic dermatitis,
allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, allergic myelitis, ulcerative colitis,
Crohn's disease and rheumatoid arthritis.
Background Art
[0002] As chemotactic substances that induce chemotaxis and topical infiltration of leukocytes
such as neutrophil and monocyte, there are classical chemotactic factors such as complement
catabolites C3a and C5a, arachidonate metabolites such as leukotriene B
4 and the like, platelet-activating factor and bacterium-derived formyl peptide. These
are secondary products mainly associated with tissue lesions. On the other hand, the
presence of a series of cytokines that are produced by new expression of gene and
responsible for the induction and activation of particular leukocyte, namely, chemokines,
was verified by interleukin (IL-8) (CXCL8) purified and gene cloned by Matsushima
et al. in 1987 (see. e.g.,
Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 84, 9223-9237 (1987) and
J. Exp. Med., 167, 1883-1893 (1988)). There are 42 chemokines identified to the present, and chemokines are classified
into four subgroups based on the characteristics of their amino acid sequences. That
is, C chemokine, CC chemokine, CXC chemokine and CX
3C chemokine. XCL1 belonging to C chemokine shows chemotactic activity for T cells
and NK cells.
[0003] CC chemokine shows chemotactic activity for monocytes other than neutrophils, lymphocytes,
Langerhans cells, dendritic cells, eosinophils, mast cells and basophils. Furthermore,
CXC chemokine mainly acts on chemotaxis of neutrophils as represented by the action
of CXCL8, and CX
3C chemokine mainly acts on chemotaxis of NK cells. These chemokines exhibits their
actions by binding to G-protein-coupled receptors (chemokine receptors) and 18 chemokine
receptors have been identified to the present (see e.g.,
CELL TECHNOLOGY, 17, 1022-1029 (1998) and
Immunity, 12, 121-127 (2000)).
[0004] Therefore, a substance that inhibits the binding between chemokine and its receptor
suppresses selective chemotaxis and activation of leukocytes, and is considered to
be useful as a pharmaceutical product for the prophylaxis or treatment of acute and
chronic inflammatory diseases including allergic diseases.
[0005] Particularly, one of the pathological characteristics of asthma, sinusitis, atopic
dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, allergic myelitis, ulcerative
colitis, Crohn's disease and rheumatoid arthritis is eosinophil infiltration into
the inflammatory tissue. Therefore, eosinophils are considered to play a key role
in the onset, progress and retention of these diseases. It is known that CCR3, one
of the CC chemokine receptors, plays an important role in the chemotaxis to inflammatory
lesion and activation of eosinophils, and CCR3 is expressed not only in eosinophils
but also in inflammatory cells such as mast cells, basophils, dendritic cells and
Th2 cells (
J. Clin. Invest., 99(2), 178-184 (1997),
J. Exp. Med., 190(2), 267-280 (1999),
J. Clin. Invest., 100(5), 1137-1143 (1997),
Science, 277, 5334, 2005-2007 (1997), and
Pharmacol. Rev., 52(1), 145-176 (2000)). In asthma and atopic dermatitis models of CCR3 gene knockout mouse, eosinophils
infiltration into the lung and skin, and airway hypersensitivity are suppressed as
compared to wild-type mouse (
J. Clin. Invest., 109(5), 621-628 (2002)). It is also known that infiltration of activated eosinophils is observed in nasal
polyp tissue extract of sinusitis, and CCL11, CCL13 and CCL24, which are selective
and strong ligands of CCR3, significantly increase therein (
J. Immunol., 163(3), 1545-1551 (1999)). Moreover, CCR3 positive mononuclear cells significantly increase in peripheral
blood and synovial fluid of rheumatoid arthritis patients as compared to healthy subjects
(
Arthritis Rheum., 44(5), 1022-1032 (2001)).
[0006] In consideration of the above, a compound having affinity for CCR3 is expected to
be useful as a pharmaceutical product for the prophylaxis or treatment of immune and
inflammatory diseases.
[0007] In addition, for example, the following patent references regarding therapeutic agents
for immune and inflammatory diseases, which show affinity for chemokine receptors,
have been published.

WO98/25617 discloses arylpiperazine derivatives, as compounds having affinity for chemokine
receptors,

WO02/88111 disclose piperidine derivatives having affinity for chemokine receptors. In addition,
WO02/18335 discloses cyclic amine derivatives having a CCR3 antagonistic action. In addition,

these compounds do not have the structural characteristics that the compound of the
present invention to be mentioned below shows as a preferable embodiment (i.e., compounds
having sulfur atom on alkylene chain having morpholine ring via methylene amide).
[0008] Since a clinically effective low-molecular-weight compound having CCR3 affinity has
not bee reported to date, a CCR3 antagonist having a different structure is expected
to be a pharmaceutical product for the treatment or prophylaxis of acute and chronic
inflammatory diseases, including immune and allergic diseases.

of the present invention.
Disclosure of the Invention
[0010] The present invention aims at provision of a pharmaceutical product having affinity
for CCR3, which is used for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of immune and inflammatory
diseases.
[0011] In view of the above-mentioned situation, the present inventors have conducted intensive
studies in an attempt to find a nonpeptidic compound having a CCR3 antagonistic action
and found that a morpholine compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof,
or a hydrate or solvate thereof inhibits CCR3 ligand from binding to CCR3 and acts
as an antagonist. Thus, they have found that the compound of the present invention
can be a pharmaceutical product for the treatment or prophylaxis of acute and chronic
inflammatory diseases including immune and allergic diseases, which resulted in the
completion of the present invention.
[0012] Accordingly, the gist of the present invention is as follows.

Experimental Example 1: Binding inhibitory test of chemokine to human eosinophils
[0705] Human eosinophils were separated by the CD16 negative selection method from anticoagulation-treated
peripheral blood of healthy subject (e.g.,
J. Immunol. Methods, vol. 145, pages 105-110, 1991). The separated eosinophils (2×10
5 cells), 50 pmol/L[
125I]-eotaxin (2000 Ci/mmoL, manufactured by Amersham Pharmacia Biotech) and a test compounds
were mixed in 0.1 mL of binding buffer (50 mmol/L HEPES, 1 mmol/L CaCl
2, 5 mmol/L MgCl
2, 0.5% bovine serum albumin (BSA), 0.1 % sodium azide, pH 7.4), and the mixture was
incubated in a multiscreen plate (manufactured by MILLIPORE) at 25°C for 1 h. After
incubation, the reaction mixture in the multiscreen plate was filtered by vacuum manifold,
and washed with 0.6 mL of a cold washing buffer (50 mmol/L HEPES, 1 mmol/L CaCl
2, 5 mmol/L MgCl
2, 0.5 mol/L NaCl, 0.1% sodium azide, pH 7.4), and the radioactivity maintained on
the filter was measured. The compounds of the present invention showed a binding inhibitory
activity against chemokine in this assay. The IC
50 values (concentration of test compound necessary for decreasing binding of [
125I]-eotaxin to human eosinophils by 50 %) of some of the compounds of the present invention
were as follows.

Experimental Example 2: Effect on intracellular calcium concentration
[0706] The effect of the compound of the present invention on intracellular calcium mobilization
in peripheral blood eosinophils of healthy subject upon CCL11 stimulation was examined
by the following method.
[0707] Eosinophils separated from peripheral blood of healthy subject were suspended in
0.5% bovine serum albumin-containing phosphate buffered saline, and incubated at 37°C
for 45 min in the presence of 5 µmol/L of Fura-2 AM (manufactured by DOJINDO LABORATORIES).
[0708] After incubation, the cells were washed 3 times with a measurement buffer (10 mmol/L
HEPES, and 0.5% bovine serum albumin-containing hanks' balanced salt solution) to
remove Fura-2 AM that was not incorporated into the cells. Finally, the cells were
adjusted to 1×10
6 cells/mL with the measurement buffer and preserved in a dark place until measurement.
The intracellular calcium was measured using FDSS3000 manufactured by Hamamatsu Photonics
K.K. In other words, the cell suspension (0.1 mL) loaded with Fura-2 AM was placed
in a 96 well plate for measurement, the fluorescence intensity to the excitation light
at wavelengths 340 nm and 380 nm was measured by FDSS3000, the ratio of the fluorescence
intensity to the excitation light at these two wavelengths was determined, based on
which the intracellular calcium concentration was calculated. As the agonist, used
was CCL11 (1.0 nmol/L), which is a CCR3 selective ligand, and the antagonistic activity
was determined as 50% suppression rate (IC
50 value) of the increase in the intracellular calcium concentration, when eosinophils
were treated with various concentrations of the compound of the present invention
at 3 min before agonist stimulation.

Experimental Example 3: Effect on antigen induced allergic and biphasic ear edema model
[0709] The in vivo effect of the compound of the present invention was examined using a
mouse ovalbumin (OVA) induced allergic and biphasic ear edema model. The model was
prepared according to the method of
Sugawara et al. (Allergy & Clinical Immunology International, Supplement No. 2, P
785, 2000). In other words, male BALB/c mice were immunized by intraperitoneal injection with
10 µg of OVA and 1 mg of aluminum hydroxide gel (Alum). At 14 days after immunization,
OVA (5 µg) were subcutaneously injected to the both ears of the mouse, whereby ear
edema was induced. The thickness of the ears was measured using a dial sickness gauge
immediately before subcutaneous injection and 1 and 24 h after subcutaneous injection
of OVA. The compound of the present invention was suspended in a vehicle, 0.5% hydroxypropylmethyl
cellulose solution, and orally administered at 3 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg once a day using
an orally gavage needle from 2 days before ear edema induction. The doses of some
of the compounds of the present invention that showed a significant suppressive action
as compared to a vehicle administration group are shown in the following Table.

Industrial Applicability
[0710] The compound of the present invention is an antagonist that inhibits binding of human
eosinophils and CCL11, which is a CCR3 selective chemokine, and also inhibits an increase
in the intracellular calcium mobilization, which is induced by CCL11. Therefore, the
compound is considered to be useful as a pharmaceutical agent for the treatment and/or
prevention of immune and inflammatory diseases.
