Background

Animals such as mammals and birds are often susceptible to parasite infestation. These parasites may be ectoparasites such as fleas and ticks. Animals and humans also suffer from endoparasitic infections including, for example, helminthiasis, which is most frequently caused by a class of parasites described as nematodes or helminths. These parasites cause severe economic losses in pigs, sheep, horses and cattle and affect companion animals (e.g. cats and dogs) and poultry. Other parasites include those present in the gastrointestinal tract of animals and humans, such as hookworm (Ancylostoma), banjo (Necator), Ascaris (Ascaris), Strongyloides (Strongyloides), Trichinella (trichonella), telangium (Capillaria), Toxocara (Toxocara), Toxocara (Toxascaris), Trichuris (trichosuris), enterobiasis (enterobiasis). Other parasites present in blood or other tissues and organs include the parenteral stages of filariasis and Strongyloides (Strongyloides) and trichoderma (trichonella).

One class of endoparasites that severely harm mammals is the heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis), also known as heartworm. Other filarial endoparasites include Dirofilaria repens (Dirofilaria repens) and hong Kong heartworm (Dirofilaria honkongensis), which can also infect humans. The most common hosts are dogs and cats, but other mammals such as ferrets and raccoons can also be infected. Heartworms go through several life stages, after which they become adults, infecting the pulmonary arteries of the host mammal. The worms require mosquitoes as intermediate hosts to complete their life cycle. The time period between initial infection of a dog being bitten by a mosquito and the maturation of worms into adults living in the heart and pulmonary arteries is 6 to 7 months in dogs and is referred to as the "pre-exposure period". The L3 larvae migrate to the mosquito mouth parts (lower lips) during blood feeding by the mosquito, leave the mosquito and deposit on the dog's skin where they then migrate into the host through biting wounds. Most of the L3 larvae molted to fourth instar larvae in canine subcutaneous tissue within 1-3 days after infection (L4). They then migrate to the thoracoabdominal muscles and molt 45 to 60 days post infection to a five-year old stage (L5, immature adults). These immature dirofilaria immitis then enter the bloodstream and are carried through the heart, residing in the pulmonary arteries, 75 to 120 days after infection. Approximately 7 months after infection, adult heartworms (Dirofilaria immitis) reached maturity and propagated sexually in the pulmonary artery and right ventricle. Male adults are about 15cm long and females are about 25cm long, and their normal life span as adults is calculated to be about 5 years.

Heartworm infection is a serious and life-threatening disease. Heartworm infection is preventable and prophylactic treatment is preferred in areas where heartworms are prevalent. Treatment of adult heartworm infections with adulticides (e.g. melasomine dihydrochloride) is costly and can lead to serious adverse side effects, and so it is widely used to prevent by interrupting larval development by monthly administration of drugs. The purpose of prophylactic treatment of heartworm in the market is to prevent the development of parasites into adult heartworm by interrupting the heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis) life cycle after infection.

Macrolides (MLs such as ivermectin, eprinomectin, milbemycin oxime, moxidectin (moxidectin), and selamectin) are the most commonly used chemopreventive agents and are administered at monthly or six-month intervals. These drugs have been effective against mosquito-attached canine heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis) infectious third-instar larvae (L3) and mature fourth-instar larvae (L4). In the case of monthly administration, MLs killed L3 and L4 larvae obtained 30 days before, thereby preventing diseases caused by adult worms. MLs can also be used monthly in infected dogs to inhibit adult worm reproduction and remove microfilaria, thereby reducing transmission and leading gradually to adult worm depletion (vet. parasitol.2005Oct 24133 (2-3)197 and 206).

An increasing number of loss of efficacy (LOE) situations have been reported in recent years, where dogs develop adult heartworm dirofilaria immitis infections despite monthly prophylactic doses of macrolide drugs. For example, Atkins et al (vet. Parasitol.206(2014) 106-; this means that certain populations of Heartworm have developed selective resistance to Heartworm preventatives (American Heartworm Society,2010.Heartworm Preventive resistance. it Possible, vol.37.bulletin of the American Heartworm Society, pp.5.). Thus, there is a continuing need to develop new anthelmintics with improved activity against heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis) and other endoparasites.

Stereoisomers and polymorphic forms

One skilled in the art will recognize that the compounds may exist and be isolated in optically active and racemic forms. Compounds having one or more chiral centers (including at the sulfur atom) may exist as individual enantiomers or diastereomers or as mixtures of enantiomers and/or diastereomers. For example, it is well known in the art that sulfoxide compounds may be optically active and may exist as single enantiomers or racemic mixtures. Furthermore, the compounds of the present description may include one or more chiral centers that give rise to a theoretical number of optically active isomers. In the present case, the compounds of the formula (I) comprise at least one chiral center, i.e.carry the variable R10Carbon atom (b) of (a). In the case where the compound of the present specification includes n chiral centers, the compound may contain up to 2nAnd (c) an optical isomer. Thus, the compounds of the invention include at least 2 enantiomers encompassed by the invention. The present specification encompasses specific enantiomers or diastereomers of each compound as well as mixtures of different enantiomers and/or diastereomers of the compounds, which have useful properties as described herein. The optically active form can be prepared by: for example, the racemic form is resolved by selective crystallization techniques, by synthesis from optically active precursors, by chiral synthesis, by chromatographic separation with a chiral stationary phase, or by enzymatic resolution.

In addition to the neutral compounds, the salt forms of the compounds are also active against endoparasites. The term "veterinarily acceptable salt" describes throughout the specification any salt of a compound that is acceptable for administration in veterinary applications and that provides the active compound when administered.

Where the compound is sufficiently basic or acidic to form a stable non-toxic acid or base salt, the compound may be in the form of a veterinarily or agriculturally acceptable salt. Veterinarily acceptable salts include those derived from veterinarily or agriculturally acceptable inorganic bases and acids or organic bases and acids. Suitable salts include those comprising alkali metals such as lithium, sodium or potassium, alkaline earth metals such as calcium, magnesium and barium. Also suitable are salts containing transition metals including, but not limited to, manganese, copper, zinc, and iron. Furthermore, the present specification encompasses inclusion of an ammonium cation (NH) 4 +) And salts of substituted ammonium cations in which one or more of the hydrogen atoms is replaced with an alkyl or aryl group.

Particularly suitable are salts derived from inorganic acids including, but not limited to, hydrogen halide acids (HCl, HBr, HF, HI), sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, and the like. Suitable inorganic salts also include, but are not limited to, bicarbonates and carbonates. In certain embodiments, examples of veterinarily and agriculturally acceptable salts are organic acid addition salts formed with organic acids, including, but not limited to, maleate, dimaleate, fumarate, tosylate, mesylate, acetate, citrate, malonate, tartrate, succinate, benzoic acid, ascorbate, α -ketoglutarate, and α -glycerophosphate. Of course, other acceptable organic acids may be used.

Alkali metal (e.g., sodium, potassium or lithium) or alkaline earth metal (e.g., calcium) salts of the compounds can also be prepared by: the sufficiently acidic residue on the compound is reacted with an alkali or alkaline earth metal hydroxide.

Veterinarily acceptable salts may be obtained using standard procedures well known in the art, for example by reacting a sufficiently basic compound such as an amine with a suitable acid functionality present in the compound, or by reacting a suitable acid with a suitable basic functionality on a compound of the present specification.

In one embodiment, the compositions of the present disclosure may be in the form of a microemulsion. Microemulsions are well suited for use as liquid carrier vehicles. Microemulsions are quaternary systems comprising a water phase, an oil phase, a surfactant, and a co-surfactant. They are translucent and isotropic liquids.

Microemulsions are composed as follows: a stable dispersion of droplets of an aqueous phase in an oil phase, or conversely a stable dispersion of droplets of an oil phase in an aqueous phase. The size of these droplets may be less than 200nm (1000 to 100,000nm for emulsions). The interfacial film may be composed of alternating Surface Active (SA) and Co-surface active (Co-SA) molecules, which allow spontaneous formation of microemulsions by lowering the interfacial tension.

In one embodiment of the oil phase, the oil phase can be formed from mineral or vegetable oils, from unsaturated polyglycosylated glycerides or from triglycerides, or alternatively from mixtures of said compounds. In one embodiment of the oil phase, the oil phase may comprise triglycerides; in yet another embodiment of the oil phase, the triglyceride is a medium chain triglyceride, such as C8-C10Caprylic/capric triglyceride.

However, the level of skill of the practitioner is sufficient to use different compounds well for each component of the same composition. In one embodiment of the amount of surfactant/co-surfactant, the ratio of co-surfactant to surfactant is from about 1/7 to about 1/2. In yet another embodiment of the amount of co-surfactant, from about 25 to about 75% v/v of the surfactant and from about 10 to about 55% v/v of the co-surfactant are present in the microemulsion.

Example 4: in vivo efficacy against Haemonchus contortus (Haemonchus contortus) and Trichostrongylus hyalopecuroformis (Trichostrongylus colubriformis) in Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus).

Several in vivo studies were performed to test the efficacy of the compounds of the invention against haemonchus contortus and trichostrongylus hybridus in Mongolian gerbils. Groups of 5 animals were assigned to each of the treated group, untreated control group and positive control group. Labrasol/based administration to gerbils in untreated control groupsM1944 CS (70:30) vehicle. Animals in the positive control group were treated with either pinosyl (10mg/kg in an aqueous vehicle) and/or ivermectin (0.1mg/kg in DMSO/corn oil (50%/50% v/v)). On day 0, immunosuppressed Mongolian gerbils were artificially infected with approximately 1,000 infectious third instar larvae of Haemonchus contortus. After at least 4 hours, gerbils were also infected with approximately 1,000 third instar larvae of Coleus lucorum. Six days after infection, gerbils were treated by oral gavage of a test compound dissolved in Labrasol @, at the dosage levels indicated in tables 9-12 below M1944 CS (70: 30). Gerbils were euthanized and necropsied on day 9 (3 days after treatment) to recover parasites from the stomach and small intestine. Efficacy was calculated as the average% reduction in the number of worms of each test group compared to the average number of worms of the control group. The potency of the compounds tested is shown in tables 9 to 12 below.
