In particular, the invention provides derivatives of 1-aminocyclopentane-1,3,4-tricarboxylic acids which provide a sufficient bioavailability upon oral administration to be conveniently used as medicaments modulating the effect of glutamate. It is known that glutamate is involved in numerous cerebral functions. Important roles are therefore attributed to glutamatergic receptors, in particular as regards the conduction of nerve impulse, synaptic plasticity, the development of the central nervous system, learning and memory. \nGlutamate is also the main endogenous neurotoxin, being responsible for the neuronal death observed after ischemia, hypoxia, epileptic fits or traumatisms of the brain. It is not therefore surprising that glutamate receptors are considered to be involved in various disorders of the central nervous system and neurodegenerative diseases. \nTwo main types of glutamatergic receptors have been characterized: ionotropic receptors and metabotropic receptors. The ionotropic receptors are cationic channels activated by the glutamate and directly responsible for the rapid depolarization of post-synaptic cells. They are compounds of different sub-units and classified into three groups according to their pharmacological and functional properties. A distinction is thus made between the NMDA receptors (N-methyl-D-aspartic acid), AMPA (alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-isoxazole-4-propionic acid) and kainate. Metabotropic receptors (mGluRs) have been revealed in the mid eighties (1985). They have been found to play an important role in particular in the induction of the long-term potentialization (LTP) and the long-term depression (LDP) of synaptic transmission, in the regulation of baroceptive reflexes, spatial learning, motor learning, postural and kinetic integration, and are likely involved in acute or chronic degenerative diseases such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease or Huntington chorea as well as neuropsychiatric disorders such as anxiety, depression and schizophrenia. A new class of ligands of metabotropic glutamate receptors is disclosed in WO 98/43907 and the corresponding US-Patent No. 6,433,014 . Among the cyclic analogues of glutamic acid disclosed in these documents, 1-aminocyclopentane-1,3,4-tricarboxylic acids (ACPTs) have been found to be of great interest. In particular, the compound identified as ACPT-I or meso-cis ACPT ((1S, 3R, 4S) -1-aminocyclopentane-1,3,4-tricarboxylic acid) has shown to be efficient as a selective group III metabotropic glutamate receptor agonist with a high potential as an active agent for modulating the effect of glutamate. \nHowever, 1-aminocyclopentane-1,3,4-tricarboxylic acid shows a low oral bioavailability, which makes it difficult to effectively provide oral dosage forms of the compound. BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, it is the aim of the invention to provide derivatives of 1-aminocyclopentane-1,3,4-tricarboxylic acid as prodrugs which have an improved oral bioavailability while retaining the pharmaceutical effectiveness of their parent compound. Moreover, it is a further aim of the invention to provide pharmaceutical compositions, in particular pharmaceutical compositions for oral or nasal administration, which contain the derivatives according to the invention. Still further, the invention aims at the provision of methods for the treatment of conditions requiring a modulation of the effect of glutamate in a patient, comprising the administration of such pharmaceutical compositions. In particular, the invention thus provides the compounds of formula (I)\n \nwherein \nR 1 , R' 1 , R 2 and R' 2 are independently selected from hydrogen, optionally substituted alkyl, aryl, fluorine or hydroxy; \nA 1 , A 2 and A 3 are independently selected from -COOH, its salts, esters or amides; \nY represents a -(W) n -H group with \nW represents an amino-acyl group corresponding to natural or non-natural amino-acids; \nand \nn represents an integer comprised between 1 and 10. It will be appreciated that compounds of formula (I) contain at least three asymmetric carbons. The present invention includes all stereoisomeric forms of the compounds. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS \n Figures 1 illustrates parent compound (ACPT-I) plasma exposure obtained after oral administration to rats of prodrugs of the invention (examples 1, 3 and 4) and ACPT-I at 30 mg/kg and intravenous administration of the parent compound at dose of 10 mg/kg. Figures 2 shows the results of ACPT-I evaluation in a mouse model of Parkinson disease, the haloperidol-induced catalepsy, after oral and intraperitoneal administrations at doses of 100 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg respectively. Figure 3 shows the results of examples 1 and 3 evaluations in a mouse model of Parkinson disease, the haloperidol-induced catalepsy, after oral administration at 100 mg/kg. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The term \"alkyl\" as used herein, unless indicated otherwise, refers to a respective group preferably having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, more preferably 1 to 10 and particularly preferably 1 to 8 or 1 to 6 carbon atoms. Such alkyl groups may be linear, branched or cyclic and include methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl and hexyl groups. An alkyl group may be unsubstituted or may carry one ore more substituents, which may be selected, e.g., from hydroxyl, halogen and aryl. The term \"aryl\" as used herein, unless indicated otherwise, refers to a respective group preferably having 6 to 18 carbon atoms, particularly 6 to 10 carbon atoms. It includes groups such as a phenyl or naphtyl group. An aryl group may be unsubstituted or may carry one ore more substituents, which may be selected, e.g., from alkyl, hydroxyl, halogen, O-alkyl and nitro. The term \"halogen\" as used herein, unless indicated otherwise, includes atoms such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine. In the compounds of formula (I), A 1 , A 2 and A 3 may be the same or different and are independently selected from a carboxylic acid group and a salt, ester or amide thereof. Preferably, A 2 and A 3 are identical.

The names of natural and non-natural amino acids used herein follow the naming conventions suggested by the IUPAC-IUB Joint Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature (JCBN) as set out in \" Nomenclature and Symbolism for Amino Acids and Peptides\" (Recommendations, 1983) European Journal of Biochemistry, 138, 9-37 (1984 ). The compounds of formula (I) may be conveniently prepared by reacting the parent compounds of formula (II)\n \nwherein R 1 , R' 1 , R 2 , R' 2 , A 1 , A 2 and A 3 are as defined for the compounds of formula (I) and R 3 represents an amino group, with a natural or a non natural amino-acid or a peptide under conditions where an amide bond is formed between the reactants. Compounds of formula (II) may be obtained, e.g., following the method described by Acher et al., J. Med. Chem. 1997, 40, 3119-3129 or in WO 98/34907 . Alternatively, a very efficient reaction to obtain a 1-aminocyclopentane-1,3,4-tricarboxylic acid or its derivatives as defined by formula (II) above is the hydrogenation of a compound of formula (III)\n \nwherein R 1 , R' 1 , R 2 , R' 2 , A 1 , A 2 and A 3 are as defined for the compounds of formula (I) and R 3 represents an amino group or its protected form in the presence of a catalyst. The hydrogenation proceeds with a high selectivity to yield the compounds of formula (II). Suitable catalysts can be chosen, e.g., from Pt or Pd supported on active carbon (Pt/C or Pd/C) or other forms of elementary platinum or palladium, Raney nickel, PtO 2 , nickel boride, rhodium, ruthenium, Wilkinson's catalyst or Crabtree's catalyst, among which further preference is given to PtO 2 and Pd/C. A particularly beneficial reaction sequence to obtain two preferred compounds of formula (II) (referred to as intermediate 4 and ACPT-I in this scheme) is shown in the following:\n In step (a), ring formation is effected in the presence of a base to yield intermediate 1. In step (b), compound 1 is brominated to yield intermediate 2. In step (c), the Favorskii rearrangement forms a compound having a cyclopentene skeleton under basic conditions, followed by deprotection of the amino group to yield intermediate 3. In step (d), this intermediate is hydrogenated in the presence of H 2 and a catalyst to yield compound 4 as the only stereoisomer. In step (e), the ester groups may be removed to yield the free 1-aminocyclopentane-1,3,4-tricarboxylic acid, referred to as ACPT-1 in the above scheme. For the preparation of compounds of formula (I), intermediate 4 can be reacted with an appropriate amino-acid or peptide to give the corresponding peptide that can be further saponified as shown in the examples below. Alternatively, compounds of formula (I) can be prepared by silylation of ACPT-I followed with coupling of the intermediate with an appropriate amino-acid or peptide and final deprotection following similar conditions as the ones described by Coffey DS et al in Tetrahedron Letters 46 (2005) 7299-7302 . Alternatively, compounds of formula (I) can be prepared by reaction of cyclopentene 3, a preferred compound a formula (III), with an amino-acid or peptide compounds followed by catalytic hydrogenation and deprotections. During the reaction of the compound of formula (II) above with an amino-acid or peptide, the amino group(s) present in the amino-acid or peptide is (are) preferably protected by a protective group known in the art (as described, e.g. Green, T;W.; Wuts, P.G.M. Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 3nd ed.; Wiley, New York, 1999, chapter 7, page 494 ), such as a t-butyl carbamate (boc) group. This protective group may be removed after the amide formation has taken place by methods well established in the art. It should be understood that, based on common general knowledge, the skilled person can choose a variety of other synthetic routes to obtain the compounds according to the invention.

In parallel, ACPT-I was also administered intravenously (iv) at 10 mg/kg. Volume of administration is 2.0 ml/kg. Blood samples (600-700µl) were collected at time ranging from 15 minutes to 18 hours for the po mode of administration and from 5 minutes to 18 hours for the iv mode of administration in ice-cold tubes containing lithium-heparin and mixed gently. Immediately, 4 µl of phenylmethylsulfonyl fluorid (from a solution made of 174mg of phenylmethylsulfonyl fluorid in 5ml of ethanol 95%) were added (for 700µl of blood) to obtain a final concentration of 1 mM. Tubes were kept on ice and were centrifuged at 2500g for 10 min at 4°C. The plasma was harvested in two tubes with 150 µl each, which were kept frozen at -80°C until being analysed. 5 groups of animal were used, one for each tested prodrug and two for ACPT-I po and iv. ACPT-I analysis: parent compound was analysed in plasma samples using a LC/MS/MS method. Concentrations are expressed in ng/ml of plasma. Results: figure 1 shows ACPT-I levels in plasma after oral administration of examples 1, 3, 4 and ACPT-I at 30 mg/kg and after intravenous administration of ACPT-I at 10 mg/kg. \nThe results show that the three tested prodrugs gave better ACPT-I exposure in plasma than the parent compound itself after oral administration. Oral bioavailabilities calculated in this experiment were:\n 1.14% for ACPT-I 10.40% for example 1 (L-Leu prodrug) 15.04% for example 3 (L-Ala prodrug) 12.36% for example 4 (L-Val prodrug) 3.2 Catalepsy model of Parkinson's disease in mice: haldol-induced catalepsy The compounds of the invention were evaluated in a model of Parkinson's disease, the haldol-induced catalepsy model in mice. \nCatalepsy was assessed using the bar test in mice submitted to acute administration of the dopamine D2 receptor antagonist haloperidol (1mg/kg, intraperitoneally or ip). Mice (male RjOrl: Swiss mice, weighing 30 - 35 g at the beginning of the experiment) placed in group of 5 in Plexiglas cages, were injected with haloperidol (1 mg/kg ip). Within 15 min after haloperidol administration, mice were calm and showed slow spontaneous activity. The catalepsy response of one mouse was measured as the time the animal maintained an imposed posture with both forelimbs placed on a horizontal 0.9cm-diameter wire bar suspended 4cm above a platform. The end point of catalepsy was considered to occur when both forelimbs were removed from the bar, the mouse climbed onto the bar or if the animal moved its head in an exploratory manner. A cutoff time of 180 seconds was applied. The degree of catalepsy was scored 60 minutes after haloperidol administration and continued at 30 or 60 minutes intervals for a total of 240-300 minutes. Between measurements, the animals were returned to their home cages. This procedure was adapted from the literature: (e.g. Pires et al., Braz J Med and Biol Res 38, 1867-1872, 2005 ; Shiozaki et al., Psychopharmacology 147, 90-95, 1999 ). Parent compound and corresponding vehicle, given either intraperitoneally ( ip ) or orally ( po ), were administered 30 minutes after haldol administration. Prodrugs and corresponding vehicle were injected 4h before haldol administration. Prodrug dose is expressed in equivalent of parent compound. Data analysis : the figures 2 and 3 show the mean time of latency spent on the bar for each group of animals. At each time-point, the anti-cataleptic effects of parent compound and prodrugs were compared to vehicle-treated groups using 1-factor ANOVA test followed by the Dunnett's test. Datapoints marked with \"*\" in figures 3 or 4 indicates p<0.05 ; \"**\" indicates p<0.01. Results : parent compound 100mg/kg showed no anticataleptic activity after oral administration whereas it significantly reduced catalepsy after ip administration of a 30mg/kg dose ( Figure 2 ). On the opposite, L-Ala and L-Leu prodrugs orally administered at 100mg/kg significantly reduced the haldol-induced cataleptic response to the same extent as the parent compound at 30mg/kg ip ( Figure 3 ).","lang":"en","source":"EPO_FULLTEXT","data_format":"ORIGINAL"}},"description_lang":["en"],"has_description":true,"has_docdb":true,"has_inpadoc":true,"has_full_text":true,"biblio_lang":"en"},"jurisdiction":"EP","collections":[],"usersTags":[],"lensId":"054-580-326-944-857","publicationKey":"EP_1992637_A1","displayKey":"EP
