Description

PANCREATITIS REMEDY

Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a prophylactic agent of pancreatitis or a therapeutic agent thereof.
Background of the Invention Pancreatitis is a disease of which the onset is triggered by activation of pancreatic enzymes in pancreas, so that pancreas is auto-digestedby activated pancreatic enzymes. As therapeutic agents of pancreatitis, use is made of for example gastric acid secretion ~u~lessing agents, proteinase inhibiting agents, analgesics and anti-spasmodics, antibiotics and the like (Practice of Gastro-Intestinal Diagnostics 6, edited by Tadahiko Kozu, chief editor, Bunkodo, Tokyo, 1993).
More specifically, hist~mine. H2 receptor antagonists (blockers) including cimetidine, ranitidine, famotidine and the like are used as gastric acid secretion suppressing agents (Therapeutic Medicine Guide, '96 edition, edited by Medical Practice Editorial Committee, Bunkodo, Tokyo, 1996). Proteinase inhibiting agents include high-molecular urinastatin extracted from human urine and gabexate mesilate and nafamostat mesilate as lower molecular synthetic products [Mebio, 13(6), 74-80 (1996)]. As the analgesics and anti-spasmodics, use is made of non-steroidal, anti-inflar.,matory analgesics (indomethacin) and non-opioid analgesics (pentazocine).
As the antibiotics, use is made of penicillin-series antibiotics with wide spectrum (piperacillin), and cefem-series antibiotics of first and second generations (cefazolin and cefmetazole) (Practice of Gastro-Intestinal Diagnostics 6, edited by Tadahiko Kozu, chief editor, Bunkodo, 1993). However, the phAnr~cological effects of any of these phAr~ceutical agents are not sufficient. m us, more excellent prophylactic or therapeutic agents of pancreatitis have been needed.
Adenosine causes variousphysiological effectthrough receptor (Al, A2A' A2B' A3) which present on plasma membrane. Adenosine uptake inhibitor maintains adenosine concentration around adenosine receptor and increase adenosine effect by inhibiting adenosine uptake into tissue.
Most of quinazoline derivatives represented by the following formula (I) to be used in accordance with the present invention have been known, and it has been known also that such derivatives have an adenosine uptake inhibitory activity and are effective for myocardial protection and prophylaxis or treatment of inflammation such as paw edema (WO94/19342, WO96/06841). Additionally, Chemical Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 38, 1591-1595 (1990) describes a 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,4-dioxoquinazoline derivative with 1-(6,7-dimethoxy-4-quinazolyl)-4-piperidinyl group at position 3 and hydrogen, chloride atom or nitro group at position 6.
It has also been known that an N-aryl piperazine alkaneamide derivative with some relation to the compound represented by the following Formula (II) has various phArmAcological actions. More specifically, Japanese Publ'~he~ Fx~mine~ Patent Application No.232/69 describes that the derivative has coronary vasodilator action, central stim~ nt action, local anesthetic action, or anti-carrageenan action; Japanese Publ;~h~ Unex~mine~ Patent Application No. 4774/83 describes that the derivative has an action of myocardial protection: Japanese Publ,~he~ Unexamined Patent Application No. 290869/88 describes that the derivative has an action of ameliorating sleep quality; and European Journal of ph~rr-~ology~
172, 273-281 (1989) describes that the derivative has an action of inhibiting adenosine uptake. Furthermore, Japanese Publ;~he~
Unexamined Patent Application No. 157472/94 describes that N-piperazine acet~mi~e derivatives of 4,5-~iphenyloxazol~ thiazole and imidazole have an action of inhibiting adenosine uptake and a neuroprotective action. Still additionally, Nucleosides &
Nucleotides, 10, 975-982 (1991) describes that dipyridamole, dilazep, hexoben~ne, lidoflazine and R75231 have an action of inhibiting . .
adenosine uptake.
However, it has not yet been known that the compound represented by Formula (I) or Formula (II) is effective for the prophylaxis or treatment of pancreatitis. No report has been published yet, indicating that a compound with an action of inhibiting adenosine uptake is effective for the prophylaxis or treatment of pancreatitis.

Test Example 1 Test of the effects on murine cerulein pancreatitis Experiment was conducted in accordance with the method described in Digestive Diseases and Science, 37, 274-279 (1992).

Female BALB/C mice weighing 17 to 24 g were fasted for 16 hours. Water was provided ad libitum. Acute pancreatitis was induced by the ~ministration of seven intraperitoueally injections of cerulein (50 ~ g/kg) at hourly intervals. Blood was drawn from ab~omin~l vein, 3, 6, and 9 hours after the first injection of cerulein in case of Compound 1, Compound 2 and compound 3, while in case of Compound 4, bloodwas drawntherefrom7hours afterthefirstinjectionof cerulein.
Blood samples were centrifuged at 4 ~ and 3,000 rpm for 10 minutes, and serum was separated. Serum amylase (Amy), lipase (Lip), and glutamic ~yLuvic tr~ns~m;n~e (GPT) activities were measured. For Compound 1, Compound 2 and Compound 3, serum Amy was assayed with AU500/550 specific reagent "Katayama" Amy test(Katayama Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.); for Compound 4, serum Amy was assayed with "Rikitech P-AMY EPS" of BM pancreas-related reagent series (Boehringer M~nnheim K. K.). Serum GPT was assayed with "Katayama "
GPT test (Katayama Chemical Industry, Co., Ltd.). Serum Lip was assayed with an auto-analyzer reagent "Kyowan Detçrminçr Lipase (Kyowa Medex, Co., Ltd.). Compound 1, Compound 2, and Compound 3 were suspended in 0.5 % methyl cellulose, and one orally ~ministered hour before the first injection of cerulein, the resulting suspension was orally given at a dose of 10 ml/kg. The solvent (0.5 % methyl cellulose) was simil~rly given to a control group. Compound 4 was dissolved in distilled water, which was adjusted to pH 2 with O.lN
HCl, and then the resulting solution was adjusted to pH 4.5 with O.lN
sodium hy~Loxide. Compound 4 was orally ~mini~stered one hour before the first injection of cerulein. m e solvent (distilled water for injections, after adjustment to pH 4.5 with O.lN HCl) was simil~rly given to a control group.
Results are expressed as means + SEM where a~lv~liate.
Difference betweennormal group and control group were evaluatedusing the Wilcoxon's rank su~m test. And for differences between control group and test compound-treated group, the Steel's test was used for Compound 1 and the Wilcoxon's rank sum test was used for Compounds 2, Compound 3 and Compound 4.

Test Example 3 Inhibitory Effect of [3H]-Adenosine Uptake A blood sample was obtained from a healthy male adult under 40 years of age by branchial venipuncture using a syringe contAining sodium citrate and subjected to centrifugation to obtain washed erythrocytes. To 100 ~ l of an erythrocyte suspension (2.5X109cells /ml), 10 ~ l of a 21% dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) solution of a test compound was added. After allowing the suspension to stand at room temperature for 1 hour, 100 ~ l of a [3H]-adenosine solution was added thereto. Ten seconds later, 200 ~ l of a dilazep solution (1 mg/ml) was added to stop the adenosine uptake. m en, dibutyl phthalate was added dropwise to the reaction mixture, followed by centrifugation.
m esupernatantwas~ vedandtheerythrocytefractionwasseparated.
me erythrocytes were dissolved in Triton X-100, and uptake amount of ~H was measured with a liquid scintillation counter. m e concentration of the test compound which inhibits the [~H]-adenosine uptake by 50~ (IC50) was calculated.
Consequently, any of the compound group described in this speclfication had IC50 values of 10-6 M or less.

Test Example 4 Acute Toxicity Test Test compounds were orally or intraperitone~lly ~m;n;ctered to groups of dd-strain male mice weighing 20 + 1 g, each group consisting of three mice. Seven days after the A~m;n;~tration, the mortality was observed to obtain a m;n;m~lm lethal dose (MLD) of the compound.
Consequently, the MLD value of Compound 1 was greater than 1000 mg/kg for oral dosing; and greater than 100 mg/kg for intraperitoneal dosing. Additionally, the MLD value of Compound 2 was greater than 300 mg/kg for oral dosing; and greater than 100 mg/kg for intraperitoneal dosing.
me adenosineuptake inhibitor andph~rm~ceutically acceptable salts thereof to be used in accordance with the present invention can be ~m;n;~tered as they are, or in the forms of various ph~rmAceutical compositions. The pharmaceutical compositions in accordance withthe present invention can be prepared by uniformly mixing an effective amount of adenosine uptake inhibitor or ~hArmAceutically acceptable salts thereof, as an active ingredient, with a pharmacologically acceptable carrier. It is desired that such phAr~celltical compositions are prepared in a unit dose form suitable for oral or parenteral (subcutaneous, intra-rectum, intravenous or intra-muscular) A~m; n; ~tration.
For preparing a pharmaceutical composition for oral administration, any useful pharmaceutically acceptable carrier can be used. For example, liquid preparations for oral administration such as suspensions and syrups can be prepared by using water, sugars such as sucrose, sorbitol, and fructose; glycols such as polyethylene glycol and propylene glycol; oils such as sesame oil, olive oil, and soybean oil; preservatives such as p-hydLoxybenzoates; flavors such as strawberry flavor and peppermint, and the like. Powders, pills, capsules and tablets can bë prepared using excipients such as lactose, glucose, sucrose, and mannitol; disintegrating agents such as starch and sodium alginate; lubricants such as magnesium stearate and talc;
binders such as polyvinyl alcohol, hydloxy~lo~yl cellulose and gelatin; surfactants such as fatty acid esters; and plasticizers such as glycerin, and the like. Tablets and capsules are the most useful oral unit dose forms because of the readiness of A~m;n;~tration, For preparing tables and capsules, solid phAr~ceutical carriers are used.

Injectable preparations can be prepared using a carrier such as distilled water , a salt solution, a glucose solution, or a mixture of a salt solution and a glucose solution. The preparations can be prepared in the form of solution, suspension or dispersion according to a conventional method by using a suitable solub;l;~;ng ~llX;liAry or suspending agent.
The adenosine uptake inhibitor and ph~rmAceutically acceptable salts thereof to be used in accordance with the present invention can be ~m;ni~tered orally or parenterally in the said dosage form. The effective dose and the ~mini~tration schedule vary depending upon the mode of ~min;~tration, the age, body weight, and conditions of a patient, etc. However, it is generally appropriate to ~m;n;~ter the adenosine uptake inhibitor and a ph~rmAceutically acceptable salt thereof in a dose of 1 to 900 mg/60 kg/day, preferably 1 to 200 mg/60 kg/day.
