Definitions

  • the present teachings relate to tricyclic compounds and derivatives that can be used for inhibiting matrix metalloproteinases.
  • the present teachings also relate to methods for preparing the tricyclic compounds and derivatives, and methods of their use.
  • MMPs Matrix metalloproteinases
  • ECM extracellular matrix
  • MMPs tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases
  • TMPs tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases
  • MMPs have been a highly active set of targets for the design of therapeutic agents, specifically for the disease areas of arthritis and oncology (for ' reviews, see e.g., Woessner, J.F. (1991), FASEB J., 5: 2145-2154; and Coussens, L.M. (2002), Science, 295(5564): 2387-2392).
  • MMPs can be broadly classified into collagenases (MMP-I, MMP-8, and MMP- 13), gelatinases (MMP-2 and MMP-9), stromelysins (MMP-3, MMP-10, and MMP-11), elastases (MMP-7, and MMP- 12) and membrane-associated MMPs (MMP- 14 through MMP-25).
  • MMP-I collagenases
  • MMP-8 gelatinases
  • MMP-9 stromelysins
  • MMP-3 stromelysins
  • MMP-11 stromelysins
  • MMP-7 elastases
  • MMP- 14 through MMP-25 membrane-associated MMPs
  • the gelatinases have been shown to be the MMPs most intimately involved with the growth and spread of tumors, while the collagenases have been associated with the pathogenesis of arthritis. See e.g., Ellenrieder, V. et al. (2000), Int. J. Cancer, 85(1): 14-20; Singer
  • MMPs also have been implicated in various other diseases including restenosis, MMP-mediated osteopenias, inflammatory diseases of the central nervous system, skin aging, septic arthritis, corneal ulceration, abnormal wound healing, bone disease, proteinuria, aneurysmal aortic disease, degenerative cartilage loss following traumatic joint injury, demyelinating diseases of the nervous system, cirrhosis of the liver, colitis, glomerular disease of the kidney, premature rupture of fetal membranes, inflammatory bowel disease, periodontal disease, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, proliferative vitreoretinopathy, retinopathy of prematurity, ocular inflammation, keratoconus, Sjogren's syndrome, myopia, ocular tumors, ocular angiogenesis/
  • Macrophage metalloelastase, MMP- 12, like many MMPs is able to degrade many ECM components.
  • MMP- 12 is an important mediator of various diseases. For example, in studies conducted to investigate macrophage involvement in rheumatoid arthritis, elevated MMP- 12 expression levels were observed in synovial tissues and fluids from patients with rheumatoid arthritis relative to those with osteoarthritis. See Liu, M. et al. (2004), Arthritis & Rheumatism, 50(10): 3112- 3117. Other studies have linked MMP- 12 to promoting atherosclerotic plaque instability. See e.g., Johnson, J.L.
  • MMP- 12 expression might serve as a prognostic indicator for early tumor relapse. See Hofmann H. S. et al. (2005), Clin. Cancer Res., 11(3): 1086-1092.
  • Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are chronic pulmonary diseases that are both characterized by the accumulation of inflammatory cells, airflow obstruction and airway remodeling.
  • MMPs have been implicated to be the major class of proteolytic enzymes that induce airway remodeling. See e.g., Suzuki, R. Y. et al. (2004), Treat. Respir. Med., 3: 17-27.
  • MMP- 12 in particular, has been demonstrated to play a significant role in airway inflammation and remodeling.
  • Recent studies have shown by immunohistochemistry, for example, that bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cells and bronchial lung biopsies from patients with moderate to severe COPD had greater MMP- 12 expression than controls. See Molet, S.
  • MMP inhibitors in particular, MMP- 12 inhibitors, can be therapeutically beneficial for treating a variety of pathologic conditions and/or disorders.
  • the present teachings also provide methods of preparing the compounds of formula I and methods of treating pathologic conditions or disorders mediated wholly or in part by matrix metalloproteinases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, including administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I to a patient, for example, a patient in need thereof.
