ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to new substituted 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolecarboxamides having a great affinity for human neurotensin receptors, to a process for preparing them and to pharmaceutical compositions containing them as active principles.
The first synthetic non-peptide potential medicinal products capable of binding to neutotensin receptors have been described in EP-0,477,049. They are amides of 3-pyrazolecarboxylic acid, variously substituted with amino acids, which displace iodinated neurotensin from its receptor, at doses of less than one micromole, on guinea pig brain membranes. This series led to the development of a compound, 2-[(1-(7-chloro-4-quinolyl)-5-(2,6-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-pyrazolyl)carbonylamino]-2-adamantanecarboxylic acid, SR 48692, endowed with potent and selective neurotensin-antagonist activity (D. Gully et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 1993, 90, 65-69).
The feature of the series of products described in EP-0,477,049 is the presence at position 1 of the pyrazole ring of, in particular, a phenyl, naphthyl or 4-quinolyl group, substituted or unsubstituted. More especially, SR 48692 possesses a 7-chloro-4-quinolyl group in position 1 of the pyrazole. The products described in this document having a 1-naphthyl or 4-chloro-1-naphthyl group in position 1 of the pyrazole ring have an extremely high affinity for the guinea pig neurotensin receptor, since their IC
50
is of the order of 1 to 10 nanomoles, whereas their affinity for the human receptor is lower since their IC
50
is from 10 to 100 nmol.
It has now been found that, by substituting the phenyl group of 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolecarboxamide compounds with particular groups, the affinity for neurotensin receptors is increased, and more especially the affinity for human neurotensin receptors is increased.
In addition, the compounds according to the present invention show in vivo a broader spectrum of activity than the compounds described in EP-0,477,049 as antagonists of the neurotensin receptors.
Thus, the present invention relates, according to one of its aspects, to new substituted 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolecarboxamides of formula:
