Abstract

The present invention relates to novel synthetic substituted heterocyclic compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing the same that are capable of inhibiting or antagonizing a family of receptor tyrosine kinases, Tropomysosin Related Kinases (Trk), in particular the nerve growth factor (NGF) receptor, TrkA. The invention further concerns the use of such compounds in the treatment and/or prevention of pain, cancer, restenosis, atherosclerosis, psoriasis, thrombosis, or a disease, disorder or injury relating to dysmyelination or demyelination or the disease or disorder associated with abnormal activities of NGF receptor TrkA.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A pharmaceutical composition, comprising:
a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of a structural formula (VIa.11):

wherein
nn is an integer from 0 to 4;
A 64 is O;
A 65 is N;
A 66 is NR 73 ;
Y is O;
R 5 is independently hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, heteroaryl, or substituted heteroaryl;
R 72 is hydrogen; sulfonyl; substituted sulfonyl; substituted or unsubstituted, saturated or unsaturated, branched, straight chain or cyclic monovalent hydrocarbon radical comprising 1 to 20 carbon atoms, wherein the substituent is selected from one or more of —R a , halo, —O − , —OR b , —SR b , —S − , —NR c R c , trihalomethyl, —CF 3 , —CN, —OCN, —SCN, —NO, —NO 2 , —N 3 ,—S(O) 2 R b , —S(O) 2 O − , —S(O) 2 OR b , —OS(O) 2 R b , —OS(O) 2 O − , —OS(O) 2 OR b , —P(O)(O − ) 2 , —P(O)(OR b )(O − ), —P(O)(OR b )(OR b ), —C(O)R b , —C(S)R b , —C(NR b )R b , —C(O)O − , —C(O)OR b , —C(S)OR b , —C(O)NR c R c , —C(NR b )NR c R c , —NR b C(O)R b , —NR b C(S)R b , —NR b C(O)O − , —NR b C(O)OR b , —NR b C(S)OR b , —NR b C(O)NR c R c , —NR b C(NR b )R b , and —NR b C(NR b )NR c R c , where R a is selected from the group consisting of alkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, arylalkyl, substituted arylalkyl, heteroalkyl, substituted heteroalkyl, heteroaryl, substituted heteroaryl, heteroarylalkyl, and substituted heteroarylalkyl, each R b is independently hydrogen or R a , and each R c is independently R b or the two R c s are taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are bonded form a cycloheteroalkyl ring; heteroaryl; substituted heteroaryl; aryl; or aryl, wherein only one hydrogen atom has been replaced by a substituent;
R 73 is unsubstituted C 1-6 alkyl, C 1-6 alkyl substituted with hydroxy, or C 3-10 cycloalkyl;

or a salt, ester, or prodrug thereof; and
at least one pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle.

2. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is formulated as: an oral unit dosage form, an intravenous unit dosage form, an intranasal unit dosage form, a suppository unit dosage form, an intradermal unit dosage form, an intramuscular unit dosage form, an intraperitoneal unit dosage form, a subcutaneous unit dosage form, an epidural unit dosage form, a sublingual unit dosage form, or an intracerebral unit dosage form.

3. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is formulated as: an oral unit dosage form, which is suitable for administration of about 0.001 mg to about 200 mg of the compound per kilogram body weight to a patient in need thereof.

4. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is formulated as: an intravenous unit dosage form, which is suitable for administration of about 0.01 mg to about 100 mg of the compound per kilogram of body weight to a patient in need thereof.

5. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is formulated as: an intranasal unit dosage form, which is suitable for administration of about 0.01 mg to about 1 mg of the compound per kilogram of body weight to a patient in need thereof.

6. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is formulated as: a suppository unit dosage form, which is suitable for administration of about 0.01 mg to about 50 mg of the compound per kilogram of body weight to a patient in need thereof and comprises active ingredient in the range of about 0.5% to about 10% by weight.

7. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is formulated as: an intradermal, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, epidural, sublingual, or intracerebral unit dosage form, which is suitable for administration of about 0.001 mg to about 200 mg of the compound per kilogram of body weight to a patient in need thereof.

8. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , which is in a form selected from: tablets, pills, pellets, capsules, powders, lozenges, granules, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, syrups, elixirs, sustained-release formulations, aerosols, and sprays.

9. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , which is in the form of a tablet or capsule.

10. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , which is an oral liquid preparation.

11. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is formulated as: an oral unit dosage form and further comprises one or more optional agents selected from the group consisting of sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents, preserving agents, time delay or delay disintegration materials, standard oral vehicles, suitable carriers, excipients, and diluents.
