FORM 2 ORIGINAL THE PATENTS ACT 1970 IN PCT/2002/00113/MUM [39 OF 1970] 28-01-02 COMPLETE SPECIFICATION [See Section 10 JULE 13] "CALCIUM COMPLEX OF PHOSPHORUS CONTAINING ETHYLENEDIAM1NE DERIVATIVES" SCHERING AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT, of Mullerstrasse 178, D-13353 Berlin, Germany The following specification particularly describes the nature of the invention and the manner in which it is to be performed :- GRANTED 10-11-2005 The invention relates to the subject that is characterized in the claims, i.e., the calcium complex of [[(4R)-4-[bis[(carboxy-.kappa.O)methyl]amino-.kappa.N)-6t9-bis[(carboxy.kappa.O)methyl]-1-[(4,4-diphenylcyclohexyl)oxy]-1-hydroxy-2-oxa-6,9-diaza-1-phosphaundecan-11-yiic-aqid-.kappa.N6,.kappa.N9,.kappa.011]1oxidato(6-)]-, hexahydrogen, its salts, pharmaceutical agents that contain these complexes, for the production of agents for reducing effects that are caused by heavy metals as well as processes for their production. In medicine, complex compounds are used in particular for the treatment of heavy metal poisonings, pathological surfeit of iron as well as for the production of pharmaceutical agents for the imaging diagnosis. EP 71564 describes, I.a., the meglumine salt of the gadoiinium(lll) complex of diethylenethaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) as a contrast medium for NMR tomography. A preparation that contains this complex was approved worldwide as the first NMR contrast medium under the name Magnevist{R). This contrast medium is dispersed extracellularly after intravenous administration and is eliminated renally by glomerular secretion. A passage of intact cell membranes is virtually not observed. Magnevist(R) is especially well-suited for the visualization of pathological areas (e.g., inflammations, tumors). DTPA- or Ca-DTPA-containing compounds are further used clinically in the case of metal poisonings. DTPA- or Ca-DTPA-containing compounds are further used clinically in the case of metal poisonings. Therefore, there is a need for agents to reduce effects that are caused by heavy metals. The object of the invention is to make available such compounds and agents as well as to provide a process for their production. The achievement of this object is earned out by this invention. Laid-open specification WO 96/23526 describes the use of gadolinato(3-),[[(4R)-4-{bis[(carboxy-.kappa.O)methyl}amino-.kappa.N]-6,9-bis[(carboxy-.kappa.O)methyr]-1-[(4,4-diphenylcyclohexyl)oxy]-1 -hydroxy-2-oxa-6,9-diaza-1 -phosphaundecan-11 -ylic-acid-.kappa.N6,.kappa.N9.kappa.011}1-oxidato(6-)]-trihydrogen, also referred to as Gd-MS-325, as a blood pool agent. Gd-MS-325 is distinguished in that it binds to human serum albumin (HSA) and thus is retained in the intravascular space. The production of a Gd-MS-325 formulation is also described in WO 96/23526. Thus, in Example 10. the production of a 200 mmol solution of Gd-MS-325 (meglumine salt) with a 5% excess complexing agent MS-325 is described. The addition of calcium salts to the formulation is claimed in Claim 101, but it is not specifically disclosed in the text and in the examples. WO-96/23526 describes the production of a Gd-MS-325 formulation with 5% excess complexing agent MS-325 (Example 10). The attempt to produce the Ca-MS-325 complex in this formulation was unsuccessful (see Tests l-llll). An attempt was made to complex the 5% excess complexing agent with Ca-hydroxide or Ca-carbonate in situ. In this case, cloudiness occurred, especially in the case of large batches (1-10 I). An AAS analysis of this cloudy material yielded that in this connection, this is a Gd-containing component. (During the complexing process, MS-325 probably forms a kinetically preferred intermediate product, which results in cloudiness because of its poor solubility. They are presumably Ca complexes of phosphate ester. The fact that it is a kinetically-produced intermediate product is confirmed in that if such a cloudy solution is refluxed for 48 hours, the precipitate dissolves, and a clear solution is produced.) In addition, using HPLC, partial decomposition is already observed. Because of the cloudiness that is to be filtered off, whose intensity partially depends on how quickly the calcium is added to the solution, no reproducible contents of Ca-MS-325 and Gd-MS-325 are obtained in the formulation. This procedure for the galenical production of such pharmaceutical formulations is thus ultimately not acceptable. The object was therefore also to make available a formulation of Gd-MS-325 that corresponds to the galenical requirements, i.e., among other things is not cloudy. This object is achieved by this invention. It has been found that the above-mentioned object is achieved by the separate production of the Ca complex of the MS-325 ligand essentially free of MS-325 chelates of metals having use in diagnostic imaging, e.g., paramagnetic metals and those suitable for x-ray or ultrasound imaging, i.e., of atomic numbers 21-29,42, 44, 57-83, and of radioactive metals, e.g., Tc, Re, Co, Cu, Au, Ag, Pb, Bi, In, Ga, or in general for ultraviolet/visible/infrared imaging, any metal chelate, (collectively termed "imaging metals"). (See WO 96/23,526). Then there occurs subsequent addition to the, e.g.. Gd-MS-325 solution. This is shown, e.g., in examples 14-29 wherein in each case the solution produced is clear and not cloudy. Formulations that are produced in this way also show constant and reproducible analytical data in the case of large batches. In addition, they have a better compatibility, more complete metal excretion and better cardiovascular system properties than the original Gd-MS-325 formulation. The invention therefore relates to the calcium complex of [[(4R)-4-[bis[(carboxy.kappa.O)methyl]amino-.kappa.N]-6,9-bis[(carboxy-.kappa.O)methyl]-1-[(4,4-diphenylcyclohexyl)oxy]-1 -hydroxy-2-oxa-6,9-diaza-1 -phosphaundecan-11 -yiic-acid-.kappa.N6,.kappa.N9,.kappa.011]1-oxidato(6-)]-, hexahydrogen, its production and the salts of these complexes with physiologically compatible inorganic and/or organic cations, such as, e.g., sodium, calcium, potassium, meglumine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine, morpholine, glucamine, dimethylglucamine, lysine, arginine and/or ornithine, and the galenical formulations with Gd-MS-325 that are thus produced. The invention further relates to the use of Ca-MS-325 and its salts for the production of pharmaceutical agents, especially as an antidote against heavy metal poisonings. Production of the Compounds According to the Invention: The complexing agent is converted into the calcium complex (Ca-MS-325) by reaction with calcium hydroxide solution, calcium oxide, calcium carbonate or calcium bicarbonate. Then, if desired, existing acid hydrogen atoms of acid groups are substituted by cations of inorganic and/or organic bases or amino acids. In this case, the neutralization takes place with the help of inorganic bases (e.g., hydroxides, carbonates or bicarbonates) of, e.g., sodium, potassium, lithium or calcium and/or organic bases, such as, i.a., primary, secondary and tertiary amines, such as, e.g., ethanolamine, glucamine, N-methyl- and N.N-dimethylglucamine as well as basic amino acids, such as, e.g., lysine, arginine and ornithine. Since the Ca complex contains four free acid groups, it may be advisable to produce neutral mixed salts, which contain both inorganic and organic cations as counterions. This can happen, for example, by Ca-MS-325 being reacted in aqueous solution with the oxide or salt of the desired metal and optionally the amount of an inorganic or organic base that is required for neutralization, the complex salt that is formed being isolated and optionally purified. The sequence of the addition of base can be arbitrary. The production of the Gd-MS-325 formulations according to the invention takes place by the calcium complex compounds according to the invention together with Gd-MS-325 - optionally by adding the additives that are commonly used in galenicals -being dissolved in aqueous medium and then the solution optionally being sterilized. It 5 can also be advantageous to produce the latter by the calcium complex compounds according to the invention being reacted with free complexing agent MS-325 and the stoichiometric amount of gadolinium oxide or salt as well as the amount of an inorganic or organic base in aqueous medium that is required for neutralization of the gadolinium complex. Suitable additives are, for example, physiologically harmless buffers (such as, for example, tromethamine), electrolytes (such as, for example, sodium chloride) as well as antioxidants (such as, for example, ascorbic acid). The pharmaceutical agents according to the invention contain 1 umol/l -1 mol/l of the Gd complex salt, preferably 0.5 mmol/l - 500 mmol/l and 0.05-15 mol%, preferably 0.5-5 mol%, of Ca-MS-325 and are generally dosed in amounts of 0.005 - 2 mmol/kg of body weight, preferably 50 umol/kg - 500 umol/kg. The following examples are used for a more detailed explanation of the subject of the invention.

It is refluxed for 48 hours (in this case, the initially cloudy colorless solution slowly clears up/color light yellow), it is allowed to cool and made up with deionized water to a total volume of 500 ml. The light yellow solution is filtered and analyzed by HPLC. The content of Gd-MS-325 was determined with the 100% method (external standard: HPLC-purified Gd-MS 325). A content of 96.3% was produced. The low content and the yellow coloration indicate decomposition. For comparison: Content after HPLC/95°C (6 hours): 98.9%.
