FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to antitumoral compounds, and in particular to new antitumoral analogs of lamellarins, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in the treatment of cancer.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The lamellarins are polyaromatics alkaloids originally isolated from marine sources and comprising a fused polyaromatic framework. The family of lamellarins are constituted by two basic structures:
(Figure Remove) Both structures have a pyrrolic ring substituted with aryl units. The hexacyclic structure 1 is a 14-phenyl-6H- [l]benzopiran[4',3',4,5] pyrrolo[2, l-a]isoquinolin-6~one. Depending of the substituents and the presence of a double bond between C8-C9 the members of this family are designed with different letters.

R. J. Anderson et al, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1985, 107, 5492, describes the isolation and characterization of four polyaromatic metabolites, the lamellarins A-D, obtained from a marine prosobranch mollusc Lamellaria sp. The structure of lamellarin A was determined by an X-Ray crystallographic study and the structures of lamellarins B-D were assigned by interpretation of spectral data.
N. Lindquist et al, J. Org. Chem. 1988, 53, 4570, describes the isolation and characterization of four new lamellarins: E-H from the marine ascidian Didemnum chartaceum obtained from the Indian Ocean. The structure of lamellarin E was determined by an X-Ray crystallographic study.
A. R. Carroll et al, Aust J. Chem. 1993, 46, 489, isolated six new lamellarins: I, J, K, L, M and the triacetate of the lamellarin N, and four

known of this type: A, B, C, and the triacetate of lamellarin D, isolated from a marine ascidian Didemnum sp.
S. Urban et al, Aust J. Chem. 1994, 47, 1919 and Aust. J. Chem. 1995, 48, 1491, described the isolation and characterization of four new lamellarins, O, P, Q, R, with the substructure type 2 from the marine sponge Dendrilla cactos. Later S. Urban et al, Aust. J. Chem. 1996, 49, 711, described the structure of lamellarin S from the ascidian Didemnum. sp.
(Figure Remove) M. V. R. Reddy et al, Tetrahedron 1997, 53, 3457, isolated five new lamellarins: T, U, V, W, and X, and the first example of sulfated lamellarin, Y, isolated from the marine ascidian Didemnum sp obtained from the Arabian sea.
R. A. Davis et al, J. Nat Prod. 1999, 62, 419, described one new lamellarin, Z, and various examples of sulphated lamellarins isolated from the marine ascidian Didemnum chartaceum.
M. V. R. Reddy et al, J. Med. Chem. 1999, 42, 1901, isolated a new lamellarin, a, isolated from the marine ascidian Didemnum sp.
Finally, J. Ham et al, Bull Korean Chem. Soc. 2002, 23, 163, described the isolation and characterization of the lamellarin p obtained from a marine ascidian Didemnum sp.
Lamellarins C and D have been shown to cause inhibition of cell division in a fertilised sea urchin assay, whereas lamellarins I, K , and L all exhibit comparable cytoxicity against P388 and A549 cell lines in culture. Recently, lamellarin N has been shown to exhibit activity in lung cancer cell lines by acting as a Type IV microtubule poison.
Furthermore, J. L. Fernandez-Puentes et al, PCT Int. Appl WO 97/01336, describe that these compounds have also cytotoxic activity on multidrug resistant cells as well as efficacy as non-toxic modulators of the multidrug resistant phenotype and, therefore, afford an attractive potential source of chemotherapeutic agents.
The limited availability of natural material has resulted in the search for alternative synthetic methods being sought for the natural compounds and related analogs. M. G. Banwell et al, Int. Patent Appl. WO 98/50365 and Int. Patent Appl. WO 99/67250 described the synthesis of lamellarin K via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between an alkyne and an N-ylide of isoquinolin.
Lamellarin G trimethyl ether was also synthetised by S. Ruchirawat et al, Tetrahedron Lett. 2O01, 42, 1250. The synthesis involved the formation of the core pyrrolo[2,l-a]isoquinoline, followed by the formation of the lactone ring.
Lamellarins I and K (1) were obtained by L. Castedo et al, Synlett 2001, 7, 1164, by a new approach based on the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a nitrone to an alkyne. The key cycloaddition yield an isoxazoline which rearranged to afford the central pyrrole ring.
F. Albericio et al, Org. Lett 2003, 5, 2959, has described a total solid-phase synthesis of Lamellarins U and L.
Ishibashi F. et al., J.Nat.Prod., 2002, 65, 500-504 describe the synthesis and structure activity relationship for some lamellarin derivatives.
The discovery of the main target for an anticancer agent is an essential element to better understand its mechanism of action and to guide the development of clinically useful analogs. To illustrate this, one can refer to camptothecin (CPT) discovered in the early 1960s but successfully developed only a quarter of a century later when its main, and perhaps unique, molecular target was identified: topoisomerase I. The observation in 1985 that CPT stabilizes DNA-topoisomerase I complexes provided the starting point for the rational development of safe CPT analogs which culminated in the mid 1990s with the approval of topotecan and irinotecan for the treatment of ovarian and colon cancers.
The search for non-CPT topoisomerase I poisons has been very active for the past ten years but only a limited number of potent topoisomerase I poisons has been discovered.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
We have found that the lamellarins represent a new and promising series of topoisomerase I inhibitors. The correlation between the capacity of the drugs to stimulate topoisomerase I-mediated DNA cleavage and their cytotoxic potential makes them useful as antitumor agents.
The present invention is directed to compounds of the general formula III:

The term "pharmaceuncally acceptable salts, derivatives, prodrugs" refers to any pharrnaceutically acceptable salt, ester, solvate, hydrate or

any other compound which, upon administration to the recipient is capable of providing (directly or indirectly) a compound as described herein. However, it will be appreciated that non-pharmaceutically acceptable salts also fall within the scope of the invention since those may be useful in the preparation of pharmaceutically acceptable salts. The preparation of salts, prodrugs and derivatives can be carried out by methods known in the art.
For instance, pharmaceutically acceptable salts of compounds provided herein are synthesized from the parent compound which contains a basic or acidic moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts are, for example, prepared by reacting the free acid or base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or in an organic solvent or in a mixture of the two. Generally, nonaqueous media like ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol or acetonitrile are preferred. Examples of the acid addition salts include mineral acid addition salts such as, for example, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, sulphate, nitrate, phosphate, and organic acid addition salts such as, for example, acetate, maleate, fumarate, citrate, oxalate, succinate, tartrate, malate, mandelate, methanesulphonate and p-toluenesulphonate. Examples of the alkali addition salts include inorganic salts such as, for example, sodium, potassium, calcium and ammonium salts, and organic alkali salts such as, for example, ethylenediamine, ethanolamine, N,N-dialkylenethanolamine, triethanolamine and basic aminoacids salts.
The compounds of the invention may be in crystalline form either as free compounds or as solvates (e.g. hydrates) and it is intended that both forms are within the scope of the present invention. Methods of solvation are generally known within the art.

Any compound that is a prodrug of a compound of formula III is within the scope and spirit of the invention. The term "prodrug" is used in its broadest sense and encompasses those derivatives that are converted in vivo to the compounds of the invention. Such derivatives would readily occur to those skilled in the art, and include, for example, compounds where a free hydroxy group is converted into an ester derivative.
The compounds of the present invention represented by the above described formula III may include enantiomers depending on their asymmetry or diastereoisomers. The single isomers and mixtures of the isomers fall within the scope of the present invention.
The compound of the present invention can be prepared synthetically from the intermediate compound Va described in the PCT Int. Appl WO 98 50365. Numerous active antitumoral compounds have been prepared from this compound and it is believed that many more compounds can be formed in accordance with the teachings of the present disclosure.
(Figure Remove) The compounds of formula III can be prepared from simple starting materials based on the following retrosynthesis.

Further details are given in the the experimental procedures and the physicochemical characteristics of the compounds in the examples.
Another especially preferred embodiment of the present invention is pharmaceutical compositions useful as antitumor agents which contain as active ingredient a compound or compounds of the invention, as well as the processes for their preparation.
An important feature of the above described compounds of formula III is their bioactivity and in particular their cytotoxic activity. With this invention we provide novel pharmaceutical compositions of compounds of general formula III that possess cytotoxic activity, and their use as antitumor agents. Thus the present invention further provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of this invention, a pharmaceutically acceptable salts, derivatives, prodrugs or stereoisomers thereof with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
Examples of pharmaceutical compositions include any solid (tablets, pills, capsules, granules etc.) or liquid (solutions, suspensions or emulsions) with suitable composition for oral, topical or parenteral administration.
Administration of the compounds or compositions of the present invention may be any suitable method, such as intravenous infusion, oral preparation, intraperitoneal and intravenous preparation. We prefer that infusion times of up to 24 hours are used, more preferably 2-12 hours, with 2-6 hours most preferred. Short infusion times which allow treatment to be carried out without an overnight stay in hospital are especially desirable. However, infusion may be 12 to 24 hours or even longer if required. Infusion may be carried out at suitable intervals of say 1 to 4 weeks. Pharmaceutical compositions containing compounds of the invention may be delivered by liposome or
nanosphere encapsulation, in sustained release formulations or by other standard delivery means.
The correct dosage of the compounds will vary according to the particular formulation, the mode of application, and the particular situs, host and tumour being treated. Other factors like age, body weight, sex, diet, time of administration, rate of excretion, condition of the host, drug combinations, reaction sensitivities and severity of the disease shall be taken into account. Administration can be carried out continuously or periodically within the maximum tolerated dose.
The compounds and compositions of this invention may be used with other drugs to provide a combination therapy. The other drugs may form part of the same composition, or be provided as a separate composition for administration at the same time or a different time.
Antitumoral activities of these compounds include among others leukaemias, lung cancer, colon cancer, kidney cancer, prostate cancer, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, pancreas cancer, cervix cancer, sarcomas and melanomas.
The present invention will be further explained with the following examples. These examples are illustrative of the present invention and should not not be interpreted as limitative.

Inhibition of cell growth by colorimetric assay.
A colorimetric type of assay, using sulforhodamine B (SRB) reaction has been adapted for a quantitative measurement of cell growth and viability (following the technique described by P. A. Skehan, et al, J. Nail. Cancer fast 1990, 82, 1107-1112).
This form of assay employs 96 well cell culture microplates of 9 mm diameter (T. Mosmann et al., J. of Immunological Methods 1983, 65, 55-63; G. T. Faircloth et al, J. of Tissue and Culture Methods 1988, 11, 201-
205).
Most of the cell lines are obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) derived from different human cancer types.
The values for mean +/- SD of data from triplicate wells are calculated. Some parameters for cellular responses can be calculated: GI = growth inhibition, TGI = total growth inhibition (cytostatic effect) and LC = cell killing (cytotoxic effect).

Example 3: Topoisomerase I inhibition
The marine alkaloid lamellarin D (LAM-D, 3) has been recently characterized as a potent poison of human topoisomerase I endowed with remarkable c}>totoxic activities against tumor cells. We report here the structure-activity relationship study in the LAM-D series.
Two groups of triester compounds incorporating various substituents
on the three phenolic OH at positions 8, 14 and 20 of 6H-
[ l]benzopyrano[4',3':4,5]pyrrolo[2, l-a]isoquinolin-6-one pentacyclic
planar chromophore typical of the parent alkaloid were tested as topoisomerase I inhibitors.
Compounds incorporating amino acid residues strongly promoted DNA cleavage by human topoisomerase I. LAM-D derivatives tri-substituted with leucine, valine, proline, phenylalanine or alanine residues, or a related amino side chain, stabilize topoisomerase I-DNA complexes. The DNA cleavage sites detected a T*G or CUG dinucleotides with these molecules were identical to that of LAM-D (3) but slightly different from those seen with carnptothecin which stimulates topoisomerase I-mediated cleavage at T^G only.
With prostate (DU-145 and LN-CaP), ovarian (IGROV and IGROV-ET resistant to ecteinascidin-743) and colon (LoVo and LoVo-Dox cells resistant to doxorubicin) cancer cells (but not with HT29 colon carcinoma cells), the most cytotoxic compounds correspond to the most potent topoisomerase I poisons. The observed correlation between cytotoxicity and topoisomerase I inhibition strongly suggests that
topoisomerase I~mediated DNA cleavage assays can be used as a guide to the development of superior analogs in this series.
Two assays, based on DNA relaxation and DNA cleavage (Bailly, C. DNA relaxation and cleavage assays to study topoisomerase I inhibitors. Methods EnzymoL 2001, 340, 610-623) were used evaluate the effects of the lamellarin analogs on the catalytic activity of human topoisomerase I.
In the first assay, a supercoiled plasmid DNA was relaxed with topoisomerase I in the absence or presence of the test compounds, each tested at 1 jiM. DNA relaxation products were then resolved by gel electrophoresis on agarose gels containing ethidium bromide to stain the DNA. The alkaloid camptothecin, used as a positive control, strongly promotes DNA cleavage by topoisomerase I. Similarly, the intensity of the band corresponding to nicked DNA is significantly amplified in the presence of LAM-D (3) indicating that this natural product also stabilizes DNA-topoisomerase I covalent complexes. This functional assay is useful to identify the topoisomerase I poisons among the various analogs synthesized. The analogous compounds with a 5-6 saturated bond (11, 22, 108, 109, 139) were inactive in this assay.
Different cationic groups, mostly amino acid residues, were incorporated at the three phenoxy positions of LAM-D. A marked inhibition of topoisomerase I was observed with the positively charged molecules 40 (Ala), 39 (Leu), 36 (Val), 33 (Pro) and 25 (Phe) but not with the corresponding NH-Boc derivatives or the non-planar C5-C6 analogues. The Phe derivative is significantly less potent than the other amino acid derivatives which are all more or less equally effective at inhibiting topoisomerase I. The stereospecificity was investigated with the Val derivatives for which we compared the activity of the (L)
(36, 38, 135, 144) and (D) (17, 32, 34, 122) isomers but there was no difference between the two series. Compound 17 and 36 both stimulated DNA cleavage by the enzyme. No effect was observed with the Boc-protected analogs in the C5-C6 double stranded (38, 122) or C5-C6 single-stranded (32, 34, 135, 144) series. The amino compounds 24 and 169 were also found to inhibit topoisomerase I.
Concentration-dependent measurements were performed with each of the positive compounds identified and a few representative gels comparing the anti-topoisomerase I activity of LAM-D (3) with the three analogues Val(D) (17), Pro (33) and the amino compound 169 were done. This later compound is equally efficient to (3) in terms of stimulation of DNA cleavage by topoisomerase I. In all cases, the dose-response analysis confirmed that the cationic LAM-D analogues potently inhibit the en2yme.
It is clear that the introduction of an amino acid functionality on the phenolic OH groups at positions 8, 14 and 20 of LAM-D (3) is not detrimental to topoisomerase I inhibition. The extent of topoisomerase I-mediated DNA cleavage is fully maintained when a Leu, Val, Ala or Pro residue is incorporated on the LAM-D skeleton whereas a non charged group abolishes the anti-topoisomerase I activity. A phenylalanine residue is much less favorable than a proline or an alanine residue for example. The observations that the incorporation of a cationic group promoted topoisomerase I inhibition suggested that the enhanced capacity of the drugs to bind to DNA could be responsible for a better enzyme inhibition.
A second assay, based on the cleavage of a radiolabeled DNA substrate by topoisomerase 1, was used to confirm that the cationic lamellarin derivatives do effectively function as topoisomerase I poisons. A 117-bp
DNA restriction fragment uniquely end-labeled at the 3' end was subjected to cleavage by topoisomerase I in the presence of the different compounds and the resulting DNA cleavage products were resolved on sequencing-type polyacrylamide gels. The advantage of this assay is to detect the cleavage sites and to locate their positions with nucleotide resolution, providing thus information on the site selectivity of cleavage.
The reference drug CPT products three sites at nucleotide positions 26,
48 and 81 which all three correspond to T^G sites. Cleavage at TG sites in the presence of CPT is believed to result from the interaction of topoisomerase I with the T residue combined with the stacking of the CPT molecule with the adjacent G residue. A fourth weak site can be
detected at the top of the gels (T^G107).
The sequence selectivity profiles are slightly different with the lamellarin analogs. LAM-D is less efficient than CPT for topoisomerase I-mediated
DNA cleavage at sites T^G48 and T^GSl but it induces an additional
cleavage site at C^G73. This likely reflects a different mode of interaction with the topoisomerase I-DNA covalent complexes.
Cleavage profiles identical to that of 3 were obtained with the cationic derivatives such as 39 (Leu), 36 (Val), 33 (Pro) and 25 (Phe) but not with the corresponding NH-Boc derivatives or the non-planar C5-C6 analogue. The ammo compounds 169 and 7 were also found to stimulate DNA cleavage by the enzyme and here also we found no difference between the (L) (36) and (D) (17) Val isomers. The results are thus entirely consistent with those obtained by the relaxation assay and therefore validate the conclusion that the cationic lamellarin derivatives potently inhibit topoisomerase I.
