Abstract

Methods and compositions for treating Cryptosporidium parvum related disorders in a mammal are discussed. Several novel tetracycline compounds useful for treating Cryptosporidium parvum related disorders are also included.

Claims (44)

1. A method for controlling Cryptosporidium parvum in a mammal wherein the presence of Cryptosporidium parvum results in a Cryptosporidium parvum related disorder in said mammal, comprising administering to said mammal an effective amount of a tetracycline compound, such that Cryptosporidium parvum is controlled in said mammal, wherein said tetracycline compound comprises the following formula (I)

wherein

X is CHC(R 13 Y′Y), CHR 6 , S, NR 6 , or O;

R 2 , R 4 and R 4 ′ are each hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, alkylamino, arylalkyl, heterocyclic or heteroaromatic;

R 2′ , R 3 , R 10 , R 11 and R 12 are each hydrogen;

R 5 is hydroxyl, hydrogen, thiol, alkaroyl, aroyl, alkaroyl, aryl, heteroaromatic, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, alkylamino, or an arylalkyl;

R 8 and R 9 are each independently hydrogen, hydroxyl, halogen, thiol, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, alkylamino, or an arylalkyl;

R 6 is hydrogen, hydroxyl, halogen, thiol, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, alkylamino, or an arylalkyl;

R 7 is hydrogen, hydroxyl, halogen, thiol, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl or an arylalkyl;

R 13 is hydrogen, hydroxyl, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, alkylamino, or an arylalkyl;

Y′ and Y are each independently hydrogen, halogen, hydroxyl, cyano, sulfhydryl, amino, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, alkylamino, or an arylalkyl;

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the tetracycline compound is selected from the group consisting of:

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein said mammal is immunocompetent.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein said mammal is immunocompromised.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein said mammal is a human.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein said human has an immunodeficiency.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein said human has AIDS.

8. The method of claim 5 , wherein said human has undergone chemotherapy.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein said Cryptosporidium parvum related disorder is diarrhea.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein said Cryptosporidium parvum related disorder is cryptosporidiosis.

11. A method for treating a Cryptosporidium parvum related disorder in a mammal, comprising administering to said mammal an effective amount of a tetracycline compound, wherein said tetracycline compound comprises the following formula (I)

wherein

X is CHC(R 13 Y′Y), CHR 6 , S, NR 6 , or O;

R 2 , R 4 and R 4′ are each hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, alkylamino, arylalkyl, heterocyclic or heteroaromatic;

R 2′ , R 3 , R 10 , R 11 and R 12 are each hydrogen;

R 5 is hydroxyl, hydrogen, thiol, alkanoyl, aroyl, alkaroyl, aryl, heteroaromatic, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, alkylamino, or an arylalkyl;

R 8 and R 9 are each independently hydrogen, hydroxyl, halogen, thiol, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, alkylamino, or an arylalkyl;

R 6 is hydrogen, hydroxyl, halogen, thiol, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, alkylamino, or an arylalkyl;

R 7 is hydrogen, hydroxyl, halogen, thiol, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl or an arylalkyl;

R 13 is hydrogen, hydroxyl, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, alkylamino, or an arylalkyl;

Y′ and Y are each independently hydrogen, halogen, hydroxyl, cyano, sulfhydryl, amino, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, alkylsulfonyl, alkylamino, or an arylalkyl; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, such that said mammal is treated for said disorder.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein said mammal is immunocompetent.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein said mammal is immunocompromised.

14. The method of claim 11 , wherein said mammal is a human.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein said human has an immunodeficiency.

16. The method of claim 14 , wherein said human has AIDS.

17. The method of claim 14 , wherein said human has undergone chemotherapy.

18. The method of claim 11 , wherein said Cryptosporidium parvum related disorder is diarrhea.

19. The method of claim 11 , wherein said Cryptosporidium parvum related disorder is cryptosporidiosis.

20. The method of claim 11 , further comprising the administration of a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

21. The method of claim 11 , further comprising the administration of a supplementary anti- Cryptosporidium parvum agent.

22. The method of claim 21 , wherein said supplementary agent is paromomycin.

23. The method of claim 11 , wherein said tetracycline compound is selected from the group consisting of 5-propionyl-6-cyclopentylsulfanylmethyl doxycycline; thiatetracycline; 6-cyclopentylsulfanylmethyl doxycycline and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
