| Full Text | FIELD OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to compositions and methods for treating malaria. Specifically, this invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions including spiro and dispiro trioxolanes, and methods of their use and manufacture, BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Malaria is an acute and often chronic infectious disease resulting from the presence of protozoan parasites within red blood ceils. Caused by single-celled parasites of the genus Plasmodium, malaria is transmitted from person to person by the bite of female mosquitos. Although once prevalent in North America and other temperate regions of the world, today malaria occurs mostly in tropical and subtropic countries. Each year, between 400 million and 600 million people contract the disease, and 1.5 million to 2.7 million die of the disease. Four species of Plasmodium protozoan parasites are generally responsible for malaria, including Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium falciparum., Plasmodium malariae, and Plasmodium ovale. Of the four, Plasmodium falciparum is the most dangerous, accounting for half of all clinical cases of malaria and 90% of deaths from the disease. The transmission of malaria begins when a female mosquito bites a human already infected with the malaria parasite. When the infected mosquito bites aiiother human, sporozoites in the mosquito's saliva are transferred into the blood, which then travel to the liver. In the liver, the sporozoites divide rapidly, then enter the bloodstream where they invade red blood cells. Inside these blood cells, the merozoites multiply rapidly until they cause the red blood cells to burst, releasing into the blood stream a new generation of merozoites that then infect other red blood cells. The symptoms associated with malaria are generally associated with the bursting of the red blood cells. The destruction of the red blood cells spills wastes, toxin, and other debris into the blood. This in turn causes an intense fever that can leave the infected individual exhausted and bedridden. More severe symptoms associated with repeat infections and/or infection by Plasmodium falciparum include anemia, severe headaches, convulsions, delirium and, in some instances, death. The treatment of malaria has been especially difficult due to the ability of malaria parasites to develop resistance to drugs. Quinine, an antimalarial compound that is extracted from the bark, of the South American cinchona tree, is one of the oldest and most effective pharmaceuticals in existence. The downside to quinine is that it is short-acting, and fails to prevent disease relapses. Further, quinine is associated with side effects ranging from dizziness to deafness. Chloroquine is a synthetic chemical similar to quinine. It became the drug of choice for malaria when it was developed in the 1940s due to its effectiveness, ease of manufacture, and general lack of side effects. However, in the last few decades, malaria parasites in many areas of the world have become resistant to chloroquine. Mefloquine is another synthetic analog of quinine that has been used in the treatment of malaria. Malaria parasites have also developed resistance to mefloquine, however. Mefloquine is also associated with undesirable central nervous side effects in some patients, including hallucinations and vivid nightmares. Antifolate drugs are effective against malaria parasites by inhibiting their reproduction. Although the parasites have also developed a resistance to antifolate drugs, the drugs can still be used effectively in combination with other types of antimalarials. The * use of combination therapies in treating malaria has the drawbacks of being inconvenient and expensive, however. More recent developments in the treatment of malaria have involved the use of the peroxide functional group, as exemplified by the drug artemisinin, which contains a unique 1,2,4-trioxane heterocyclic pharmacophore. The antimalarial action of artemisinin is due to its reaction with the iron in free heme molecules in the malaria parasite with the generation of free radicals leading to cellular destruction. The discovery of artemisinin (qinghaosu), a naturally occurring endoperoxide sesquiterpene lactone (Meshnick et al., 1996; Vroman et al. 1999;Dhingraet aL, 2000) initiated a substantial effort to elucidate its molecular mechanism of action (Jefford, 1997; Cumming et ai., 1997) and to identify novel antimalarial peroxides (Dong and Vennerstrom, 2001). Many synthetic 1,2,4-irioxanes, 1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes, and other endoperoxides have been prepared. Although the clinically useful semisynthetic artemisinin derivatives are rapid acting and potent antimalarial drugs, they have several disadvantages including recrudescence, neurotoxicity, (Wesche etal., 1994) and metabolic instability. (White, 1994). A fair number of these compounds are quite active in vitro, but most suffer from low oral activity. (White, 1994; van Agtmael et al., 1999). Although many synthetic antimalarial 1,2,4-trioxanes have since been prepared (Camming et al., 1996; Jefford, 1997), there exists a need in the art to identify new peroxide antimalarial agents, especially those which are easily synthesized, are devoid of neurotoxicity, and which possess improved pharmacokinetic properties, e.g. improved stability, oral absorption, etc. Accordingly, it is a primary objective of the present invention to provide compositions and methods for prophylaxis and treatment of malaria using spiro and dispiro 1,2,4-trioxolanes. It is a further objective of the present invention to provide a composition and method for prophylaxis and treatment of malaria using spiro and dispiro 1,2,4-trioxolanes that is nontoxic. It is a further objective of the present invention to provide a composition and , method for prophylaxis and treatment of malaria using spiro and dispiro 1,2,4-trioxolanes that is metabolically stable and orally active. It is yet a further objective of the present invention to provide a composition and method for prophylaxis and cost-effective treatment of malaria using spiro and dispiro 1,2,4-trioxolanes. It is a further objective of the present invention to provide compositions and methods for prophylaxis and treatment of malaria using spiro and dispiro 1,2,4-trioxolanes that can be used either as stand-alone medicaments or in combination with other agents. It is still a further objective of the present invention to provide novel intermediates for synthesizing compositions for prophylaxis and treatment of malaria. The method and means of accomplishing each of the above objectives as well as others will become apparent from the detailed description of the invention which follows hereafter. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The invention describes a method and composition for treating malaria with spiro and dispiro 1,2,4-trioxolanes, their prodrugs and analogues. The trioxolanes of this invention are stericalJy hindered on one side of the trioxolane heterocycle in order to provide chemical and metabolic stability to the trioxolane ring for better in vivo activity. The spiro and dispiro trioxolanes are preferably sterically hindered with an unsubstituted, mono-, di-, or poly-substituted C5-C12 spiro eycloalkyl group, which is most preferably spiroadamantane. The spiro and dispiro trioxolanes also preferably include a spirocyelohexyl that is preferably functionalized or substituted at the 4-position or a spiropiperidyl ring that is functionalized or substituted at the nitrogen atom. The invention embraces achiral, achirai diastereomers, racemic mixtures, as well as enantiomeric forms of the compounds. The trioxolanes of this invention possess excellent potency and efficacy against Plasmodium parasites, and a low degree of neurotoxicity. In addition, several of the trioxolanes are suitable for both oral and non-oral administration. Moreover, in comparison to artemisinin semisynthetic derivatives, the compounds of this invention are structurally simple, easy and inexpensive to synthesize, and can be used effectively alone or in conjunction with other antimalarials. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT The present invention relates to the development of spiro and dispiro 1,2,4-trioxolanes for use in the prophylaxis and treatment of malaria. The present invention is predicated upon the unexpected discovery that trioxolanes thai are relatively sterically hindered on at least one side of the trioxolane heterocycle provide metabolic and chemical stability to the trioxolane ring, thereby providing better in vivo activity, especially with respect to oral administration. As used herein the term "prophylaxis-effective amount" refers to a concentration of compound of this invention that is effective in inhibiting or preventing infection and subsequent disease by malarial parasites. Likewise, the term "treatment-effective amount" refers to a concentration of compound that is effective in treating malaria in terms of preventing an increase in the concentration of malarial parasites, decreasing the concentration of malarial parasites, and/or "curing" a malaria infection, i.e. survival for 30 days post-infection. Tetrasubstituted trioxoianes are relatively stable peroxidic compounds based on literature precedent (Griesbauni et al., 1997a; 1997b). This may be due, in pail, to the lack of α-hydrogen atoms. The present inventors have synthesized new compounds in die trioxolane class having both superior antimalarial potency and oral efficacy. Furthermore, the compounds of this invention have low toxicity, and half-lives conducive to treatment of malaria which are believed will permit short-term treatment regimens comparing favorably to other artsmisinin-like drags. These compounds may also be used in malaria prophylaxis. The tetrasubstituted trioxoianes of this invention have the following general structural formula: (Formula Removed) wherein R1, R2, R3, and R4 represent combinations of ring systems, acyclic systems, and functional groups that provide sufficient steric hindrance about the trioxolane ring in order to give the ring chemical and metabolic stability. R1,R2,R3and R4 may be the same or different, and may be a linear or branched alkyl, aryl, or aJkaryi group which is optionally substituted. In the alternative, R1 and R2 taken together and /or R3 and R4 taken together may form an alicyclic group which is optionally interrupted by one or more oxygen, sulfur or nitrogen atoms and which group is optionally substituted. In no event may any of R1, R2, R3 or R4be hydrogen. Preferably, R1 and R2 taken together and/or R3 and R4 taken together is a mono- or di-subslituted C5-C12 spirocycloalkyl group which is optionally interrupted by one or more oxygen, sulfur, or nitrogen atoms, and which group is optionally substituted, Most preferably, R1 and R2 taken together or R3 and R4 is spiroadamantane. It is hypothesized that the sterically demanding adamantane protects the trioxolane ring from premature chemical or metabolic decomposition in situ. The inventors have further found that in the most preferred compounds of this invention, Rt and R2 taken together is adamantane, and R3 and R4 taken together is a spirocyclohexyl ring that is functionalized or substituted at the 4-position. The spirocyclohexyl ring may be optionally interrupted by one or more oxygen, sulfur or nitrogen atoms. The functional group may be a linear or branched alkyl, ketone, acid, alcohol, amine, amide, sulfonamide, guanidine, ether, ester, oxime, urea, oxime ether, sulfone, lactone, carbamate, semicarbazone, phenyl, heterocycle, or alicyclic group which is optionally substituted. The functional group is preferably an amide. It has now been unexpectedly found that amide-containing substituents at the 4-position provide antimalarial compounds with good oral absorption, good antimalarial activity, and good pharmacokinetics, i.e. rates of absorption, metabolism, and elimination that are most suitable and advantageous for the prophylaxis and treatment of malaria. It has also been found thai a heteroatom in the spirocyclohexyl ring generally causes the compound to more rapidly metabolize. Thus, for purposes of the pharmaceutical compositions of this invention, such compounds are not preferred. Other substituents at the 4-position of the spirocyclohexyl ring are also possible that fall within the scope of this invention. The spirocyclohexyl ring may also be substituted at other positions besides the 4-position. For instance, the inventors have synthesized several compounds substituted at the 2-position of the spirocyclohexyj ring that provide excellent antimalarial potency. Preferred compounds of this invention include an alky] group connecting the substituent at the 4-position to the spirocyclohexyl ring. The alkyl group is preferably methyl or ethyl, with methyl being most preferred. The alkyi "bridge" group also improves the metabolieally stability (i.e. oral activity and pharmacokinetics) of the antimalarial compounds of this invention. The present inventors have identified two orally active lead dispiro-1,2,4-trioxolanes, OZ03 and OZ05: (Formula Removed) These trioxolanes have IC5& between 1 and 5 ng/ml against P. falciparum in vitro, and presumably possess good therapeutic indices as no toxicity is evidence for either compound in a neuroblastoma celi line or at single 640 mg/kg doses in mice in the Rane test. These results contrast with published data (de Almeida Barbosa et al., 1992; 1996) disclosing the weak in vitro anthnalarial potency of several tricyclic trioxolanes, the best of which has an IC50 of 2000 ng/ml against P. falciparum in vitro. A notable feature of these trioxolanes in comparison to the artemisinin semisynthetic derivatives is their structural simplicity. A potential advantage of trioxolanes over both trioxanes (Jefford, 1997; Cumming et al., 1997) and tetraoxanes (Vennerstrom et al., 2000) is a more convenient access to structurally diverse, non-symmetrical, and in many cases, achiral compounds. Below are several dispiro 1,2,4-trioxolanes synthesized in accordance with the teachings of tins invention. "OZ" is an internal designation for these compounds that will be used throughout the remainder of the application for convenience: OZ Series 1 (OZ01-OZ09) QZ Series 2 (OZ10-OZ18) OZ Series 3 (OZ19-OZ27) OZ Series 4 (OZ28-Q236) OZ Series 5 (OZ37-OZ45) OZ Series 6 (OZ46-OZ54) OZ Series 7 tt)Z55-OZ63) QZ Series 8 (OZ64-OZ72) OZ Series 9 fQZ73-OZ81) OZ Series 10 fOZ82-OZ90) OZ Series 12 (OZ10Q-OZ108) OZ Series 13 (OZ309-OZn7) OZ Series 14 (OZ118-OZ126) OZ Series 15(OZ127-OZ135) QZ Series 16 (OZ136-OZ144) OZ Series 17 (OZ14S-OZ1S3) OZ Series 18 (OZ154-OZ162)bOZ Series 19 (OZ163-OZ171) OZ Series 20 (OZ172-OZ180) OZ Series 21 (OZ181~OZ189) OZ Series 22 (OZ19&-OZ198) OZ Series 23 (OZJ99-OZ207) 0% Series 24 fOZ208-OZ216) OZ Series 25 (OZ217-OZ22S) OZ Series 26 (OZ226-OZ234) OZ Series 27 (OZ23S-OZ243) OZ Series 28 (OZ244-OZ252) OZ Series 29 (OZ253-OZ261) (Formula Removed) OZ Series 30 (OZ262-OZ270) The prototype trioxolanes of this invention are OZ03 aadOZ05. Preferred compounds identified thus far include OZ03, OZ05, OZ11, OZ25, OZ27, OZ6I, OZ71, OZ78, OZ127, OZ145, OZ156, OZ163, OZ175, OZ177, OZ179.0Z181, OZ189, OZ205, OZ207, OZ209, OZ210, OZ219, OZ227, OZ229, OZ235, OZ25S, OZ256, OZ257, OZ263, GZ264, OZ265, OZ266, OZ267, OZ268, OZ269, and OZ270. The most preferred compounds are OZ78, OZ163, OZI81, OZ207, OZ209, OZ255, OZ256, OZ257, OZ263, OZ264, and OZ267. In general, the highest in vitro potency against malarial parasites is obtained for trioxolanes functionalized or substituted at the 4-position of the spirocyclohexyl ring. As a general rule, non-symmetrical, achiral trioxolanes are also preferred. Notable features of these spiro and dispiro 1,2,4-trioxolanes in comparison to the artemisinin semisynthetic derivatives are their structural simplicity and ease of syndiesis. For example, dispiro trioxolanes may be easily synthesized by the coozonolysis of the O-methyl oximes of cycloalkanones in the presence of the requisite cycloalkanone derivatives according to the method of Griesbaum et al. (1997a; 1997b) as illustrated below for the symmetrical dispiro cyciohexyl trioxolane: (Formula Removed) If yields arc low in this coozonolysis reaction, yields can improve dramatically when the O-methyloxime and ketone are "reversed." This novel procedure provides a uniquely convenient method to synthesize spiro and dispiro trioxolanes. The trioxolanes may be purified by crystallization or by flash column chromatography. Their structures and purity may be confirmed by analytical HPLC, 'H and ,13C NMR, IR, melting point and elemental analysis. Recently, Griesbaum et al. (1997b) discovered that tetrasubstituted 1,2,4-trioxolanes are conveniently obtained by ozonolysis of 0-alkyl ketone oximes in the presence of carbonyl compounds. Advantages of the oxime ether route over the alkene approach include convenient synthesis of starting materials (oxime ethers vs. tetrasubstituted alkenes), higher yield and selectivity of formation of desired trioxolanes by the judicious selection of paired reaction substrates. Formation of a trioxolane from an oxime ether and a ketone is presumed to be a three-step process. The sequence begins by the electrophilic addition of ozone to the oxime double bond to form a primary ozonide. Second, the very unstable primary adduct fragments to a reactive carbonyl oxide driven in part by the concomitant expulsion of the relatively stable methyl nitrite. Third, the carbonyl oxide undergoes a [3 + 2] cycloaddition with a ketone to give the secondary ozonide or 1,2,4-trioxolane. It remains to be (Formula Removed) determined whether this is a stepwise or a concerted recombination process. As illustrated above by the synthesis of OZ03, all of the target dispiro trioxolanes contain a spiroadamantane and can be synthesized by the coozonoiysis of adamantanone O-methyl oxime in the presence of the requisite cycloalkanone derivative. The preferred reaction solvents for the coozonoiysis reactions are hydrocarbon solvents such as pentane or cyclohexane; more polar solvents tend to decrease the yield of the reaction. When ketones are not readily soluble in pentane or cyclohexane, a mixed solvent (pentane/methylene chloride) or methylene chloride alone may be used. Several factors govern the ratio of oxime ether to ketone. In some reactions, in order to avoid diperoxide (1,2,4,5-tetraoxane) formation, to preclude diozonide formation from diketones, and to promote the reaction with readily pentane soluble ketones, excess ketone (2:1) is used. Most commonly in the discovery synthesis stage, and especially in cases where ketones are not readily soluble in pentane, expensive, or difficult to remove in the reaction workup, a 1:1 ratio of ketone to oxime ether maybe used. In large scale trioxolane syntheses, a 1.5-fold excess of oxime ether can be used to achieve higher conversions of ketones into the desired product trioxolanes without causing purification problems. There are several examples of where post-ozonolysis transformations were used to obtain trioxolane target compounds difficult, or in some cases, impossible to obtain directly (Kashima et al, 1987) by the coozonoiysis method. Trioxolane tertiary alcohols O290 and (Formula Removed) OZ108 can be obtained by methyllithium treatment of trioxolane ketone OZ05 and trioxolane ester OZ70, respectively. In other reactions, trioxolane lactone OZ17 and trioxolane alcohol OZ32 were obtained by treatment of OZOS with m-CPBA and sodium borohydride, respectively. In addition, various oxime ethers, hydrazones, ketals, and amines (reductive animation with sodium triacetoxyborohydridc) were also obtained from trioxolane ketone OZ05 in good to excellent yields. In the examples noted above, it is vident that troxolane ketone OZ05 is a key intermediate as its ketone functional group >rovides a convenient means for functional group transformation. (Formula Removed) Further evidence of the stability of these trioxolanes to reducing agents is shown by le reduction of trioxolane esters OZ70 and OZ61 into their corresponding trioxolane ilcohols OZ119 and OZ89 with a mixture of lithium borohydride and lithium riethylborohydride, and the hydrazinolysis of the trioxolane phthalimides OZ136 and (Formula Removed) OZ146 into their corresponding trioxolane amines OZ137 andOZ209. As shown in the examples below, trioxolane esters can be conveniently converted into their corresponding trioxolane acids. (Formula Removed) In addition lo trioxolane ketone OZ05, trioxolane amine OZ209, trioxolane ester OZ61 and trioxolane acid OZ78, trioxolane alcohols OZ119 and OZ89 and their corresponding mesylates (no assigned OZ #s) have and will continue to be key intermediates for post-ozonolysis synthetic transformations. A recent example is the (Formula Removed) synthesis of trioxolane triazole OZ177 in a reaction between the mesylate derivative of OZ119 and the sodium salt of 1,2,4-triazole. It has been found that the coozonoiysis method using oxirae methyl ethers offers a rapid, flexible, and predictable access to structurally diverse trioxolanes. In fact, several key trioxolanes that have served as important building blocks have been prepared in large scale including OZ05 (100 mmol), 0Z61 (100 mmol), and OZ146 (60 mmol), with no decrease in reaction yields over the usual 5-10 mmol scale. Furthermore, both OZ61 and OZ146 can be conveniently isolated as white solids by addition of ethanoi to the crude reaction mixtures. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) experiments (Cammenga, and Epple, 1995) reveal that these compounds have good thermal stability, comparable to artemisinin. The average Tm, dec was 160 ± 15°C compared to a Tm, dec of 181 °C for artemisinin. It is presumed that thermal decomposition, of these trioxolanes was initiated by formation of a 1,5 diradical produced by hemolytic cleavage of the peroxide bond of the trioxolane ring. Since most of the target trioxolanes contain the symmetrical spiroadamantane structural framework, their stereochemistry is largely a function of the starting material ketone structure or reagents used in post-ozonolysis reactions. For OZ27 and other similarly 1,4-substituted trioxolanes, two achiral diastereomers are possible. However, as exemplified by OZ27, the majority of these trioxolanes were isolated as single achiral diastereomers rather than as mixtures of two achiral diastereomers. For example, in OZ27, no chirality is present since the trioxolane ring and phenyl substituent are in a 1,4 relationship in a six raembered ring. Such compounds possess a plane of symmetry. (Formula Removed) As determined by X-ray crystallography, the assignment of stereochemistry tor OZ78, OZ209 and their derivatives was determined to be cis where the peroxide oxygens are in an axial position. The following cycloaikanone and cycloalkanedione starting materials can be obtained from Aldrich Chemical Co. or from TCI American Organic Chemicals: cyclohexanone, cyclododecanone, 1,4-cyclohexanedione, 2-adamantanone, bicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-one, tetrahydro-4H-pyran--4-one, 1-carboethoxy-4-piperidone, 1-benzoyl-4-piperidone, α-tetralone, ß-tetralone, bicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-3,7-dione, 1,4-cyclohexanedione-mono-2,2-dimethyltriniemylene ketal, cis-bicyclo[3.3.0]octane-3,7-dione, and 4-carboethoxycyclohexanone. The cycloaikanone starting materials may also be synthesized. For instance, the inventors have synthesized 4,4-dimethylcyclohexanone and 4,4-diphenylcyclohexanone by catalytic hydrogenation (Augustine, 195 8) of the commercially available enones. Also, 2-carboethoxyethylcyclohexanone was synthesized by treatment of the pyrrolidine enamine of cyclohexanone with ethyl acrylate (Stork et al., 1963). Persons skilled in the art can readily ascertain other appropriate means of synthesizing the starting materials and compounds in accordance with this invention. The spiro and dispiro trioxolane compositions of the present invention may be generally used for the prophylaxis and treatment of malaria. The trioxolane compositions of the present invention are administered along with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Any pharmaeeuticaliy acceptable carrier may be generally used fortius purpose, provided that the carrier docs not significantly interfere with the stability or bioavailability of the trioxolane compounds of this invention. The trioxolanes of this invention can be administered in any effectively pharmaceutically acceptable form to warm blooded animals, including human and other animal subjects, e.g. in topical, lavage, oral, suppository, parenteral, or infusible dosage forms, as a topical, buccal, sublingual, or nasal spray or in any other manner effective to deliver the agents. The route of administration will preferably be designed to optimize delivery and/or localization of the agents to target cells. In addition to the active compounds i.e. the trioxolanes, the pharmaceutical compositions of this invention may contain suitable excipients and auxiliaries which facilitate processing of the active compounds into preparations which can be used pharmaceutically. Oral dosage forms encompass tablets, capsules, and granules. Preparations which can be administered rectally include suppositories. Other dosage forms include suitable solutions for administration parenterally or orally, and compositions which cah be administered buccally or sublingualis The pharmaceutical preparations of the present invention are manufactured in a manner which is itself well known in the art. For example the pharmaceutical preparations may be made by means of conventional mixing, granulating, dragee-making, dissolving, lyophilizing processes. The processes to be used will depend ultimately on me physical properties of the active ingredient used. Suitable excipients are, in particular, fillers such as sugars for example, lactose or sucrose mannitol or sorbitol, cellulose preparations and/or calcium phosphates, for example, tricalcium phosphate or calcium hydrogen phosphate, as well as binders such as starch, paste, using, for example, maize starch, wheat starch, rice starch, potato starch, gelatin, gum tragacanth, medryl cellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and/or polyvinyl pyrrolidone. If desired, disintegrating agents may be added, such as the above-mentioned starches as well as carboxymethyl starch, cross-linked polyvinyl pyrrolidone, agar, or alginic acid or a salt thereof, such as sodium alginate. Auxiliaries are flow-regulating agents and lubricants, for example, such as silica, talc, stearic acid or salts thereof, such as magnesium stearate or calcium stearate and/or polyethylene glycol. Oral dosage forms may be provided with suitable coatings which, if desired, may be resistant to gastric juices. For this purpose concentrated sugar solutions may be used, which may optionally contain gum arabic, talc, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyethylene glycol and/or titanium dioxide, lacquer solutions and suitable organic solvents or solvent mixtures. In order to produce coatings resistant to gastric juices, solutions of suitable cellulose preparations such as acetylcellulose phthalate or hydroxypropylrnethylcellulose phthalate, dyestuffs and pigments may be added to the tablet coatings, for example, for identification or in order to characterize different combination of compound doses. Other pharmaceutical preparations which can be used orally include push-fit capsules made of gelatin, as well as soft, sealed capsules made of gelatin and aplasticizer such as glycerol or sorbitol. The push-fit capsules can contain the active compounds in the form of granules which may be mixed with fillers such as lactose, binders such as starches, and/or lubricants such as talc or magnesium stearate and, optionally, stabilizers. In soft capsules, the active compounds are preferably dissolved or suspended in suitable liquids, such as fatty oils, liquid paraffin, or liquid polyethylene glycols. In addition stabilizers may be added. Possible pharmaceutical preparations which can be used rectally include, for example, suppositories, which consist of a combination of the active compounds with the suppository base. Suitable suppository bases are, for example, natural or synthetic triglycerides, paraffin hydrocarbons, polyethylene glycols, or higher alkanols. In addition, it is also possible to use gelatin rectal capsules which consist of a combination of the active compounds with a base. Possible base material include for example liquid triglycerides, polyethylene glycols, or paraffin hydrocarbons. Suitable formulations for parenteral administration include aqueous solutions of active compounds in water-solubie or water-dispersible form. In addition, suspensions of the active compounds as appropriate oily injection suspensions may be administered. Suitable lipophilic solvents or vehicles include fatty oils for example, sesame oil, or synthetic fatty acid esters, for example, ethyl oleate or triglycerides. Aqueous injection suspensions may contain substances which increase the viscosity of the suspension, including for example, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, sorbitol and/or dextran. Such compositions may also comprise adjuvants such as preserving, wetting, emulsifying, and dispensing agents. They may also be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter, or by incorporating sterilizing agents into the compositions. They can also be manufactured in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved or suspended in sterile water, saline, or other injectable medium prior to administration. In addition to administration with conventional carriers, active ingredients may be administered by a variety of specialized delivery drug techniques which are known to those of skill in the art, such as portable infusion pumps. The trioxolane compositions of the present invention are administered along with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier in an amount sufficient to prevent malarial infection and/or treat an active infection. The trioxolane compounds of this invention have extremely low toxicity and a low degree of side effects even at high doses. The dosing range of the trioxolane compositions will vary depending on a number of factors, such as whether it is used for prophylaxis or treatment of an active infection, route of administration, dosing schedule, etc. In general, the therapeutic dose of trioxolane may range between about 0.1-1000 mg/kg/day, with between about 1-100 mg/kg/day being preferred. The foregoing doses may be administered as a single dose or maybe divided into multiple doses for administration. The trioxolane compositions may be administered once to several times daily. For malaria prevention, a typical dosing schedule could be, for example, 2.0-1000 mg/kg weekly beginning 1-2 weeks prior to malaria exposure taken up until 1-2 weeks post-exposure. The spiro and dispiro trioxolanes of this invention have been found to be effective in the treatment of schistosomiasis. Schistosomiasis ranks second behind malaria in terms of socioeconomic and public health importance in tropica] and subtropical areas. The disease is endemic in 74 developing countries, infecting more than 200 million people in rural agricultural and peri-urban areas. An estimated 500-600 million people worldwide are at risk from the disease. The major forms of human schistosomiasis are caused by five species of water-borne flatworm, or blood flukes, called schistosomes. One of these species is Schistosoma mansoni, which has been reported in 53 countries in Africa, the Eastern Mediterranean, the Caribbean, and South America. The parasites enter the body through contact with infested surface water, primarily among people engaged in agriculture ami fishing. The parasites normally infect die host during the cercaria, or larval stage. Once inside the host, the cercaria develop into adults or schistosomes. Current treatments for schistosomiasis have focused primarily on prophylaxis, i.e. prevention of host infection by cercaria. Currently, praziquantel is the most widely used drug for treatment of schistosomiasis. While artemether has demonstrated activity in the prophylaxis of schistosomiasis, it has not shown any activity against adult S. mansoni. It has now been unexpectedly discovered that the spiro and dispiro trioxolanes of this invention are active against both cercaria and adult S. tnansoni, S. japonicum when administered in the dosages and manner outlined above with respect to treatment of malarial parasites. It is also believed the trioxolanes of this invention will be active against 5. haematobium. Preferred compounds identified for use in the treatment of schistosomiasis include OZ03, OZ05, OZ11, OZ16, OZ23, OZ25, OZ27, OZ32, OZ71, OZ78, OZ89, OZ90, OZ119, OZ145, OZ163, OZ205, OZ207,0Z209, OZ210, OZ219, OZ227, OZ229, OZ235, OZ255, OZ256, OZ257, OZ263, OZ264, OZ265, OZ266, OZ267, OZ268, OZ269, and OZ270.

The prototype trioxolanes of this invention are OZ03 and OZ05. The spiro and dispiro trioxolanes of this invention may also have effectiveness in the treatment of cancer. Compounds having an endoperoxide moiety that is reactive with heme and iron have shown an ability to kill cancer cells. (Seee.g. U.S. Pat. No. 5,578,637, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference). As noted with respect to artemisinin, trioxolanes' mechanism of action against malarial parasites is based on the ability of trioxolane compounds to react with the iron in free heme molecules in malaria parasites, with the generation of free radicals leading to cellular destruction. Similarly, trioxolanes are selective against cancer cells due to the higher concentration of transferrin receptors on cancer cell membranes that pick up iron at a higher rate than normal cells. In the presence of the trioxolanes of this invention, the cancer cells will accumulate high concentrations of free radicals, leading to cell death. For cancer treatment, the trioxolanes of this invention may be administered in the doses and manner oudined above. Other drugs besides trioxolanes which are compatible with the carrier ingredients may also be incorporated into the carrier. Such drugs may be readily ascertained by those of ordinary skill in the art and may include, for instance, antibiotics, other antimalarials, antiinflammatory agents, etc. It is understood that the present invention contemplates the use of not only the above-stated trioxoiane compounds themselves, but their prodrugs which metabolize to the compound and the analogues and biologically active salt forms thereof, as well as optical isomers which provide the same pharmaceutical results. The following examples are offered to illustrate but not limit the invention. Thus, they are presented with the understanding that various formulation modifications as well as method of delivery modifications may be made and still be within the spirit of the invention.

EXAMPLE 2 Antimalarial Activity of OZ01-OZ270 Each trioxolane was screened against the chloroquine-resistant Kl and chloroquine-sensitive NF54 strains of P. falciparum in vitro. In the single dose STI in vivo screen, Moro SPF or NMRI mice infected with the ANKA strain of P. berghei (groups of three mice) were treated on day one post-infection with trioxolanes dissolved or suspended in 3% ethanol and 7% Tween 80. Trioxolanes were administered as single 10 mg/kg doses sc and po. Trioxolanes were also administered as single 10 mg/kg doses in standard suspending vehicle (SSV). SSV consists of 0.5% w/v CMC, 0.5% v/v benzyl alcohol, 0.4% v/v Tween 80, and 0.9% w/v sodium chloride in water. Antimalarial activity was measured by percent reduction in parasitemia on day three post-infection and survival times compared to an untreated control group. Survival to day 30 post-infection is considered to be a cure. For comparative analysis, in Table 1 below data is presented for trioxolanes OZ01-OZ270 along with the controls, fenozan, artemisinin, arteether, artemether, and artesunate: Table 1 (Table Removed) EXAMPLE 4 Neurotoxicity of Trioxolanes Even though reported clinical neurotoxicity for the semisynthetic artemisinins is very rare (Park et al., 1998), neurotoxicity is a potential drawback for antimalarial peroxides of any structural class. Against the NB2a cell line (Fishwick et al., 1995) trioxolanes OZ03, OZ04, OZ05, OZ07, and OZ08 had relatively high IC50's of 13, 44, 31, 27, and 42 uM, respectively. In this same screen, dihydroartemisinin, the presumed metabolite of all the semisynthetic artemisinins (Titulaer et al., 1991; White, 1994), was quite neurotoxic with an IC50 of 0.22 µM. There was no apparent relationship between trioxolane structure and neurotoxicity and these five trioxolanes. EXAMPLE 5 Onset of Action and Recrudescence of OZ11, OZ27, OZ78, OZ156, OZ175, OZ177, OZ207, and OZ209 Onset of Action and Recrudescence Experiments The onset of drug action was determined after a single fixed dose of 100 mg/kg (SSV vehicle) po to groups of five animals on day +3 post- infection (day 0). Parasitemias at this point are usually between 25-40%. The infected controls do not survive beyond day +6 post-infection. The reduction of parasitemia is monitored 12, 24, and 48 h after treatment, and the time of recrudescence (> 5% parasitemia) is'assessed by daily blood smears for 14 days, followed by intermittent assessment for up to 60 days. The onset part of this experiment reveals how rapidly a compound reduces parasite load; the recrudescence part of the experiment provides information about the efficacy of the compound against the parasite. A long delay in recrudescence can be due to a very good antiparasitic effect of the compound or to a compound with a long half-life. Both the trioxolanes and the artemisinins produced a rapid decline in parasitemia, confirming that they are rapidly acting antimalarial agents. In contrast to both chloroquine and these peroxidic antimalarials, mefloquine has a slow onset of action. Recrudescence (> 5% parasitemia) occurs quite rapidly for artemisinin and artesunate. The time of recrudescence increased for the more lipophilic artemisinin derivatives artemether and arteether. In contrast to artemether, recrudescence occured much more slowly for the lipophilic trioxolanes OZ11 and OZ27; the recrudescence time for OZ27 was especially marked, superior to that of mefloquine. However, recrudescence times for the relatively polar trioxolanes OZ78 and OZ175 were very similar to that of artemether. The more lipophilic trioxolane (OZ156) of the OZ156/OZ177 pair produced the longest delay in recrudescence, longer than chloroquine, but less than mefloquine. The recrudescence time for OZ177 was roughly equivalent to that of chloroquine. Strikingly, there was no recrudescence observed for OZ207 and. OZ209, two different salt forms (OZ207 - tosylate, OZ209 - mesylate) of aminomethyl trioxolane OZ163 (hydrochloride). The recrudescence data for these two trioxolanes suggests that they are either more powerful antimalarial agents or have longer half-lives than any of the semisynthetic artemisinihs. Table 3 (Table Removed) EXAMPLE 6 Treatment of Schistosomiasis Mice (MORO SPF female 18-20g) were infected with 90 (±10) cecaria of Schistosoma mansoni subcutaneously. Following infection, three of the animals were treated with OZ05 p.o., 100 mg/kg on days 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, and 42. Compared to control mice, two of the treated mice had a reduction in parasitaemia of 100%, and the third mice a reduction in parasitaemia of 53%. In the same assay, mice treated with artemether showed similar activities, but at doses four times higher than that of the OZ05. Further, in the same assay, arteflene (6x600 mg/kg p.o.) and fenozan (6x100 mg/kg p.o.) were inactive. In addition, the trioxolanes OZ05 200 mg/kg p.o. and OZ11 100 mg/kg p.o. treated once at day 49 of infection showed activity against adult S. mansoni. In contrast, artemether shows no activity against adult S. mansoni.

The liver and intestine were compressed and alive male and female worms could be seen and counted. The effect of the compounds was evaluated by mean total and female worm burden. The results are shown in Table 5. Effect of Trioxolanes on adult schistosomes (49-day-old) Mice were infected with 100 Schistosoma mansoni cercariae on day 49 post-treatment.

The liver and intestine were compressed and alive male and female worms could be seen and counted.

Trioxolanes were dissolved or suspended in the standard suspending vehicle (SSV)* and administered as single 10, 6, 3,1, 0.3, and 0.1 mg/kg doses po and sc. The SSV consists of 0.5% w/v CMC, 0.5% v/v benzyl alcohol, 0.4% v/v Tween 80, and 0.9% w/v sodium chloride in water. Antimalarial activity was measured by percent reduction in parasitemia on day three post-infection. The ED50/ED90 values were calculated by nonlinear fitting. ♦Earlier ED30/ED90 data (Example 3, Table 2) was obtained using 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose or 0.2% Tween 80 vehicle. Table 6 (Table Removed) (Table Removed) Table 6 shows ED50/ED90/ED99 data obtained by po administration of troixolanes in the SSV formulation. The relatively lipophilic artemether is substantially more active than the more polar artesunate and artelinate. A parallel trend is also evident in the trioxolane data. For example, the highly lipophilic OZ156 is more active than its more polar triazole (OZ177, OZ235) and imidazole (OZ179) analogs, although in this case the potency difference is rather small. With one significant exception (0Z1 81, OZ207, OZ209), the relatively polar trioxolanes OZ78, OZ113, and OZ127 were less active. In summary, trioxolanes OZ177 and OZ179 were as active and OZ156and OZ181 were more active than chloroquine, the most active control drug. EXAMPLE 9 In Vivo Toxicity Study of OZ23, OZ32, and OZ78 The toxic potential of three lead trioxolanes (OZ23 - trioxolane carbamate, OZ32 - trioxolane alcohol and OZ78 - trioxolane acid) was investigated against artesunate in an exploratory tolerance study in male Wistar rats. The doses administered were 100 or 300 mg/kg/day for OZ23 and OZ32, and 30 or 100 mg/kg/day for OZ78 and artesunate. All compounds were suspended in SSV and administered at a constant volume of 5 mL/kg/day. Control animals received the vehicle (SSV) at a volume of 5 mL/kg/day. Six animals per group were treated for 5 consecutive days and 6 animals per group were kept for an additional 1-week recovery period. Examinations included clinical observations, body weight development, clinical laboratory investigations (hematology, clinical chemistry and urine analysis) at the end of the treatment and recovery periods, respectively. At the end of the scheduled study period the rats were sacrificed and necropsied and selected organs were examined histopathologically. Plasma levels of the trioxolanes and artesunate sodium were analyzed employing validated HPLC/MS assays, and the data examined for evidence of drug accumulation over the course of the study. Results were compared, where possible, to data from previously conducted exploratory pharmacokinetic studies in rats. All animals survived to the end of the scheduled study period. Clinical observations related to treatment were limited to occasional occurrence of pale feces in animals given the high dose of OZ23, OZ78 or artesunate. Body weight development was reduced during the treatment period for animals receiving the high dose of OZ23 or artesunate, but was mostly compensated during the recovery period. Clinical laboratory investigations revealed minimal and essentially reversible changes mostly in high dose group animals. Liver weights tended to be minimally or slightly increased in animals receiving the trioxolanes or artesunate. Histopathological examinations indicated slight gastric irritation in animals receiving the higher dose of OZ23 or artesujiate. Plasma concentrations of OZ32 and OZ78 observed in the toxicity study in rats were broadly consistent with those noted in exploratory pharmacokinetic studies. Levels of OZ23 were disproportionately higher in the toxicity study than the levels measured in the exploratory pharmacokinetic studies, although insufficient data are available at this stage to confirm the observed non-linearity of OZ23 pharmacokinetics. Importantly, the toxicokinetic analysis revealed no evidence of accumulation of any of the OZ compounds, artesunate sodium or the major metabolite of artesunate sodium, dihydroartemisinin. In conclusion, the toxicological profile of the trioxolanes was found to be comparable to that of artesunate.
