Definitions

  • the present invention relates to novel l,3,3-(trisubstituted)cyclohexane dimers and related compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds, and their use in treating allergic and inflammatory diseases and for inhibiting the production of Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF).
  • TNF Tumor Necrosis Factor
  • Bronchial asthma is a complex, multifactorial disease characterized by reversible narrowing of the airway and hyperreactivity of the respiratory tract to external stimuli.
  • Cyclic AMP adenosine cyclic 3',5'- monophosphate
  • Cyclic AMP has been shown to be a second messenger mediating the biologic responses to a wide range of hormones, neurotransmitters and drugs; [Krebs Endocrinology Proceedings of the 4th International Congress Excerpta Medica, 17-29, 1973].
  • adenylate cyclase is activated, which converts Mg + * ⁇ -ATP to cAMP at an accelerated rate.
  • Cyclic AMP modulates the activity of most, if not all, of the cells that contribute to the pathophysiology of extrinsic (allergic) asthma.
  • an elevation of c AMP would produce beneficial effects including: 1) airway smooth muscle relaxation, 2) inhibition of mast cell mediator release, 3) suppression of neutrophil degranulation, 4) inhibition of basophil degranulation, and 5) inhibition of monocytc and macrophage activation.
  • compounds that activate adenylate cyclase or inhibit phosphodiesterase should be effective in suppressing the inappropriate activation of airway smooth muscle and a wide variety of inflammatory cells.
  • the principal cellular mechanism for the inactivation of cAMP is hydrolysis of the 3'- phosphodiester bond by one or more of a family of isozymes referred to as cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs).
  • PDE IV cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase
  • PDE IV inhibitors are markedly potentiated when adenylate cyclase activity of target cells is elevated by appropriate hormones or autocoids, as would be the case in vivo.
  • PDE IV inhibitors would be effective in the asthmatic lung, where levels of prostaglandin E2 and prostacyclin (activators of adenylate cyclase) are elevated.
  • Such compounds would offer a unique approach toward the pharmacotherapy of bronchial asthma and possess significant therapeutic advantages over agents currently on the market.
  • TNF Tumor Necrosis Factor
  • rheumatoid arthritis rheumatoid spondylitis, ostectarthri ⁇ s, gouty arthritis and other arthritic conditions
  • sepsis septic shock, endotoxic shock, gram negative sepsis, toxic shock syndrome, adult respiratory distress syndrome, cerebral malaria, chronic pulmonary inflammatory disease, silicosis, pulmonary sarcoidosis, bone resorption diseases, reperfusion injury, graft vs. host reaction, allograft rejections, fever and myalgias due to infection, such as influenza, cachexia secondary to infection or malignancy, cachexia secondary to human acquired immune deficiency syndrome
  • TNF Tumor Necrosis Factor
  • AIDS AIDS
  • AIDS AIDS
  • ARC AIDS related complex
  • keloid formation scar tissue formation
  • Crohn's disease Crohn's disease
  • ulcerative colitis or pyresis
  • AIDS results from the infection of T lymphocytes with Human
  • HTV Immunodeficiency Virus
  • HIV-1 HIV-1
  • HIV-2 HIV-2
  • HIV-3 HIV-3
  • HIV entry into the T lymphocyte requires T lymphocyte activation.
  • Viruses such as HTV- 1 or HTV-2 infect T lymphocytes after T cell activation and such virus protein expression and/or replication is mediated or maintained by such T cell activation. Once an activated T lymphocyte is infected with HIV, the T lymphocyte must continue to be maintained in an activated state to permit HIV gene expression and/or HTV replication.
  • Cytokines are implicated in activated T-cell-mediated HTV protein expression and/or virus replication by playing a role in maintaining T lymphocyte activation. Therefore, interference with cytokine activity such as by inhibition of cytokine production, notably TNF, in an HTV-infected individual aids in limiting the maintenance of T cell activation, thereby reducing the progression of HTV infectivity to previously uninfected cells which results in a slowing or elimination of the progression of immune dysfunction caused by HTV infection.
  • Monocytes, macrophages, and related cells, such as kupffer and glial cells have also been implicated in maintenance of the HTV infection.
  • T cells like T cells, are targets for viral replication and the level of viral replication is dependent upon the activation state of the cells.
  • Monokines such as TNF, have been shown to activate HTV replication in monocytes and or macrophages [See Poli et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., 87:782-784, 1990], therefore, inhibition of monokine production or activity aids in limiting HTV progression as stated above for T cells.
  • TNF has also been implicated in various roles with other viral infections, such as the cytomegalovirus (CMV), influenza virus, adenovirus, and the herpes virus for similar reasons as those noted.
  • CMV cytomegalovirus
  • influenza virus influenza virus
  • adenovirus adenovirus
  • herpes virus herpes virus
  • TNF is also associated with yeast and fungal infections. Specifically Candida albicans has been shown to induce TNF production in vitro in human monocytes and natural killer cells. [See Riipi et al, Infection and Immunity, 58(9):2750-54, 1990; and Jafari et al, Journal of Infectious Diseases, 164:389-95, 1991. See also Wasan et al, Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 35,(10):2046-48, 1991; and Luke et al, Journal of Infectious Diseases, 162:211-214,1990]. The ability to control the adverse effects of TNF is furthered by the use of the compounds which inhibit TNF in mammals who are in need of such use. There remains a need for compounds which are useful in treating TNF-mediated disease states which are exacerbated or caused by the excessive and/or unregulated production of TNF.
