Definitions
- the present invention relates to 8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-ene derivatives in their labelled and unlabeiled form. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the use of said derivatives in their labelled or unlabeiled form in diagnostic methods, in particular for in vivo receptor imaging (neuroimaging).
- WO 9713770 discloses 8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-ene derivatives which are re-uptake inhibitors for the monoamine neurotransmitter serotonine (5-hydroxy- tryptamine, 5-HT) and therefore useful in the treatment of disorders or diseases which are caused, at least in part, by increase or decrease of the endogenous serotonine levels.
- disorders or diseases are e.g., depression and related disorders, obsessive compulsive disorders, panic disorders, memory deficits, attention deficit, hyperactivity disorder, obesity, anxiety and eating disorders.
- Monoamine neurotransmitters i.e. serotonine, dopamine, and noradrenaline
- the neurotransmitter molecules can diffuse through the cleft and then bind to specific receptor molecules (transporters) located in the postsynaptic cell membrane. Binding to these receptors results in polarisation of the cell, i.e. transduction of the stimulus.
- the removal (or inactivation) of monoamine neurotransmitters from the synaptic cleft occurs mainly by a re-uptake mechanism into presynaptic nerve terminals. By inhibiting the re-uptake an enhancement of the physiological activity of monoamine neurotransmitters occurs.
- Major depression is a common disorder, affecting approximately 1 in 6 individuals at some point in their lives.
- the pathophysiology of depression is poorly understood so far, and several neurotransmitters have been implicated in the pathophysiology of major depression.
- Inhibitors that block noradrenaline and serotonine re-uptake are currently used as pharmaceuticals in anti-depressant therapy.
- Several lines of preclinical and clinical evidence indicate that an enhancement of serotonine-mediated neurotransmission might underlie the therapeutic effect of the most recent and currently used drugs in anti-depressant therapy, such as fluoxetine, citalopram and paroxetine [P. Blier & C de Montigney, TiPS (Review) 1994 15 220-225].
- serotonine re-uptake inhibitors block the serotonine transporter within minutes after application whereas their full anti-depressant effect is seen only after three to four weeks of treatment, indicating that re-uptake inhibition per se is not responsible for the anti-depressant response, but rather that further adaptive changes underlie and/or contribute to their therapeutic effect [P. Willner, Int. Review of Psychiatry 1990 2 141-156].
- the serotonergic neural system of the brain has been shown to influence a variety of physiologic functions, and disturbance of this system has been made responsible for a variety of diseases and disorders such as eating disorders, depression, obsessive compulsive disorders, panic disorders, alcoholism, pain, memory deficits and anxiety.
- depression and related disorders such as pseudodementia or Ganser's syndrome, migraine, pain, bulimia, obesity, pre-menstrual syndrome or late luteal phase syndrome, alcoholism, tobacco abuse, panic disorder, anxiety, post-traumatic syndrome, memory loss, dementia of ageing, social phobia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD syndrome), chronic fatigue syndrome, premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, anorexia nervosa, disorders of sleep, autism, mutism or trichotillomania.
- pseudodementia or Ganser's syndrome migraine, pain, bulimia, obesity, pre-menstrual syndrome or late luteal phase syndrome
- alcoholism tobacco abuse
- panic disorder anxiety, post-traumatic syndrome
- memory loss dementia of ageing
- social phobia attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD syndrome)
- chronic fatigue syndrome premature ejaculation
- erectile dysfunction erectile dysfunction
- anorexia nervosa disorders of sleep, autism, mutism or trichot
- rCBF left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, the left anterior cingulate cortex and the left angular gyms.
- depression is combined with cognitive impairment a decreased rCBF in the left medial prefrontal cortex and increased rCBF in the right cerebral vermis has been detected [Bench CJ, Friston KJ, Brown RG, Scott LC, Frackowiak RS & Dolan RJ: The anatomy of melancholia-focal abnormalities of cerebral blood flow in major depression; Psvchol- Med.
- radioligands which have desirable properties for in vivo receptor imaging. These criteria include ease of labelling with positron-emitting radionucleotides, low rates of peripheral metabolism, high selectivity for brain regions holding the neuroreceptor of interest, and relatively high specific/non-specific binding ratios. Despite the development of a number of radioligands for the serotonine transporter, none of these compounds satisfactorily meet all the criteria desired for an ideal ligand.
- the compounds and their derivatives of this invention are the first substances known that specifically bind to serotonine transporters. This allows for the first time to reliably determine the number of serotonine binding sites and related Kd values and the release of serotonine as well as the detection of changes in the serotonine metabolism in response to therapeutic drugs.
- Fig. 1 shows a characteristic PET scan illustrating the unique and very specific uptake and labelling of serotonine nerve terminals (containing the serotonine reuptake transporter) by Compound (3-4) of the invention; A coronal (left), transaxial (centre) and sagittal (right) section of a pig brain labelled with Compound (3-4). Accumulation of the compound can be seen in the medial mesecephalon (the serotonergic Raphe nuclei) and in the diecephalon (the thalamus and basal ganglia).

- Said control data may, for example, be obtained from a control group of individuals. This group consists either of healthy individuals or of individuals who suffer from one of the above mentioned disorders or diseases.
- the present invention further provides a method of diagnosis of a disorder or disease of a living human or animal body, which disorder or disease is responsive to the inhibition or monoamine neurotransmitter re-uptake, comprising the steps of (a) administering to said body a diagnostically effective amount of a compound of formula (I) in its labelled or unlabeiled form,
- the pharmaceutical composition which is preferably used in the in-vitro method of the present invention, can be provided in the form of an assay kit system wherein said pharmaceutical composition comprises either a labelled or unlabeiled compound of formula (I) in unit-dosage form in a suitable container.
- said unit dosage is adjusted to be sufficient for analysing one blood sample according to the in-vitro method of the invention.
- said assay kit of the present invention can further comprise a stabilising composition.
- the stabilising composition can be selected from antioxidants, such as ascorbic acid, or from buffers of weak acid- base composition e.g. phosphate buffers or from various types of cyclodextrins e.g.
- the compounds and their derivatives of this invention are the first substances known that specifically bind to serotonine transporters. This allows for the first time to reliably determine the number of serotonine binding sites and related Kd values and the release of serotonine as well as the detection of changes in the serotonine metabolism in response to therapeutic drugs. Furthermore, a labelled compound of formula (I) may also be used in the analysis and adjustment of the treatment of patients having a lower level of serotonine re-uptake as compared to the normal level with serotonine uptake inhibitors.
- the compounds of the invention can be employed to assess whether the dosage of serotonine re-uptake inhibitors given is sufficient to occupy a high number of the serotonine transporter sites thereby blocking the re-uptake of serotonine and extending their presence and action within the synaptic cleft.
- the labelled compound of the invention can likewise be used to investigate whether an unnecessary high dose is given thereby blocking too many serotonine transporter sites and/or increasing the risk of unwanted side-effects. If a compound is given in a sufficient dose whereby maximal blocking of serotonine re-uptake is achieved, then higher doses will only increase the risk of side effects.

- Compound (3-4) was used as a marker for the number of serotonine transporter sites.
- the binding of labelled compound (3-4) to the serotonine transporter sites was measured as follows.
- test animals three female pigs (Hampshire x Yorkshire x Duroc x Landrace crossbred) weighing 39 to 44 kg were used. They were housed singularly in a thermostatically controlled (20°C) animal colony with natural lighting conditions. The pigs had free access to water but were deprived of food for 24 hours prior to experiments.
- Pigs were sedated with an i.m. injection of Midazolam (0.5 mg/kg) and Ketamine HCI (10 mg/kg). After 10 to 15 minutes a catheter was installed in an ear vein through which a mixture of Midazolam (0.25 mg/kg) and Ketamine (5 mg/kg) was administered. The pigs were then incubated and anaesthetised with Isoflourane in 0 2 /N 2 0. Catheters (Avanti® size 4F-7F) were surgically installed in a femoral artery and vein. Infusions of isotonic saline (ca. 100 cm 5 /h) and 5% of glucose (ca. 20 cm 3 /h) were administered i.v. throughout the experiments.
- Body temperature was thermostatically maintained in the normal range (39.0-39.4°C) and physiological functions (i.e. blood pressure, heart rate and expired air C0 2 ) were monitored continuously.
- Hematocrit and whole blood acid-base parameters i.e. pH, pC0 2 , p0 2 , HC0 3 and 0 2 saturation

- Acetonitrile (0.05 ml) was added to plasma samples for metabolite analysis.
- the amount of uncharged Compound (3-4) was determined by integration of the radiopeak corresponding to Compound (3-4) in relation to the sum of all radioanalytes. Biexponential fitting of the data to the total plasma radioactivity concentration was performed to generate a metabolite-corrected input function.
- the rate of metabolism of Compound (3-4) was determined by multilinear curve-fitting based on the appearance of plasma metabolites from the metabolite-corrected plasma time-activity curve.
- ROIs Seven brain regions of interest (ROIs) were identified using a neuroanatomical atlas of the pig brain [Yoshikawa T; Atlas of the brains of domestic animals: Pennsylvania State University Press, University Park, Penn., 1968]. For each region, radioactivity concentrations were calculated for the sequence of frames, were corrected for the radioactive decay of 1 C (20.3 min), and were plotted versus time. The data for illustrations were expressed in terms of standard uptake values (SUV), i.e. [radioactivity in ROI (Bq/cc) X body weight (g)/injected dose of radioactivity (Bq)].
- SUV standard uptake values
- K ⁇ expresses the unidirectional clearance of the tracer from the circulation to the single tissue compartment
- k 2 in the case of the cerebellum is the true rate constant for clearance from the brain
- k 2 is an apparent rate constant of clearance from the single tissue compartment, assuming that equilibration between tissue compartments of solution and of binding are so rapid that a single compartment results.
- the K ⁇ /k 2 ratio is termed the apparent partition volume and expresses the binding of the compound in the ROI.
- Platelet-rich plasma was obtained by centrifugation of blood samples at 200 x g for 10 min at 20° C. Platelet membranes were prepared by lysis and homogenisation of the platelet pellet following the method of Plenge and Mellerup
- the amount of radioactivity on the filters were determined by conventional liquid scintillation counting. Five to six concentrations of [ 3 H]-X were used in the incubation mixture to determine the density of binding sites (Bmax) by Scatchard analysis.
- Fig. 1 is a characteristic PET scan showing the unique and very specific uptake and labelling of serotonine nerve terminals (containing the serotonine reuptake transporter) by Compound (3-4).
