Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the use of substituted piperidines as beta-secretase-, cathepsin D-, plasmepsin II- and/or HIV-protease-inhibitors.
  • beta-secretase-, cathepsin D-, plasmepsin II- and/or HlV-protease- inhibition there is still a need for highly potent active ingredients.
  • the improvement of the pharmacokinetic properties is at the forefront. These properties directed towards better bioavailability are, for example, absorption, metabolic stability, solubility or lipophilicity.
  • Alzheimer Disease aspartyl protease Beta-Secretase
  • AD Alzheimer's disease
  • the symptoms of AD include progressive memory loss, language difficulty and ultimately loss of basic neural function and death.
  • the biomarkers in the central nervous system for AD include amyloid plaques, intracellular neurofibrillary tangles and activated microglia. The appearance of these three markers is likely to contribute to the neuronal cell death and memory loss observed in AD.
  • Beta-amyloid is a defining feature of AD and now believed to be a causative precursor in the development of the disease.
  • Amyloidogenic plaques and vascular amyloid angiopathy also characterize the brains of individuals with Trisomy 21 (Down's Syndrome), Hereditary Cerebral Hemorrhage with Amloidosis of the Dutch-Type (HCHWA-D) and other neurodegenerative disorders.
  • Beta-amyloid plaques are predominantly composed of amyloid beta peptide (A-beta, also sometimes designated betaA4).
  • the A-beta peptide is derived by proteolysis of the beta amyloid precursor protein (APP).
  • Beta-APP is processed by three distinct ordered enzymatic activities.
  • the bulk of beta-APP is processed via alpha-secretase in a non-amyloidogenic pathway.
  • a small fraction of beta-APP is cleaved by beta- secretase activity to generate the membrane-bound C-terminal fragment C99.
  • Gamma-secretase cleaves C99 to generate the amyloidogenic A-beta peptide of 39-42 amino acids.
  • the aspartyl protease activity of beta-secretase has been disclosed using varied nomenclature, including BACE (beta-site APP cleaving enzyme), Asp and memapsin.
  • beta-secretase cleavage of beta-APP as a critical step in the generation of AD is underscored by the observation that human mutations at the beta-secretase cleavage subsites (Swedish mutations) of beta-APP lead to increased A-beta production and early onset familial AD. Furthermore, BACE1 - knockout mice fail to produce A-beta peptide and present a normal phenotype. When crossed with transgenic mice that overexpress APP, the progeny show reduced amounts of A-beta in brain extracts as compared with control animals.
  • Beta-secretase inhibiting compounds as discussed by Thompson et al. (2005) in Curr. Pharm. Des. 11 , 3383-3404 are therefore useful to treat or to prevent diseases that are characterized by amyloid beta deposits or plaques such as AD.
  • the present invention also relates to methods of treating subjects who have, or in preventing subjects from developing a disease or condition selected from the group consisting of AD, for helping prevent or delay the onset of AD, for helping to slow the proression of AD, for treating subjects with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and preventing or delaying the onset of AD in those who could progress form MCI to AD, for treating Down's syndrome, for treating humans who have HCHWAD, for treating cerebral amyloid angiopathy, and for treating degenerative dementias Alzheimer's Disease aspartyl protease: Cathepsin D
  • Human cathepsin D is an intracellular aspartic peptidase found mainly in lysosomes. It has a number of housekeeping functions, including the degradation of cellular and phagocytosed proteins. The enzymes may be involved in a variety of disease states, including cancer and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Clinical studies have shown that cathepsin D is overexpressed in breast cancer cells and this seems to be associated with an increased risk for metastasis due to enhanced cell growth. Cathepisn D is also thought to be involved in formation of the beta-amyloid peptide in AD. Recently, several genetic association studies linked cathepsin D with amyloid pathology and Alzheimer's disease as described for example by Davidson et al., (2006) in J. Neurol. Neurosurg. Psychiatry 77, 515-517. The availability of selective and potent inhibitors will help to further define the role of cathepsin D in disease and possibly lead to therapeutic agents.
  • Plasmodium falciparum Malaria is considered as one of the most serious infectious diseases in the world, affecting approximately 500 million people. The disease is spread by the anopheles mosquito that is mostly found in tropical regions. The species Plasmodium falciparum is responsible for more than 95% of malaria-related morbidity and mortality. Increasingly, Plasmodium falciparum is becoming resistant to existing therapies such as chloroquine, mefloquine and sulfadoxime/ pyrimethamine. Thus there is an urgent need for new treatments.
  • the parasite In the erythrocytic stage of the parasite's life cycle the parasite invades the red blood cells of its host consuming up to 80% of the hemoglobin as a source of nutrients for growth and development. Hemoglobin degradation takes place in an acidic vacuole of the parasite and many of the current antimalarial drugs appear to disrupt important vacuolar functions.
  • the food vacuole contains aspartic, cysteine and metallo- proteases, which are all considered to play a role in the process of hemoglobin degradation. At least 10 genes encoding aspartic proteases have been identified in the Plasmodium genome.
  • plasmepsin I, II, IV and HAP plasmepsin I, II, IV and HAP
  • Inhibitors of plasmepsin I and Il have shown efficacy in cell and animal models of malaria, indicating that these enzymes may represent targets for drug discovery as described for example by Coombs et al. (2001 ) Trends Parasitol 17, 532-537.
  • a non-selective inhibitor of aspartic proteases, pepstatin inhibits the growth of Plasmodium falciparum in vitro.
  • the present invention relates to the identification of low molecular weight, non- peptidic inhibitors of the Plasmodium falciparum protease plasmepsin Il or other related aspartic proteases to treat and/or to prevent malaria.
  • HIV aspartyl protease HIV-1 peptidase
  • AIDS Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Gag and Gag-Pol Two polyprotein precursors, Gag and Gag-Pol.
  • the 55-kDa Gag precursor contains the structural proteins and the 160-kDa Gag-Pol polyprotein contains the functional viral enzymes protease, reverse transcriptase, and integrase.
  • Gag and Gag-Pol polyproteins are transported to the plasma membrane where assembly of type-C retroviruses and lentiviruses typically occurs.
  • the viral protease cleaves the Gag and Gag-Pol precursors into the structural and functional proteins required for viral replication.
  • the protease activity within the cytoplasma of infected cells allows for the formation of virions which can be released from the cell in the last stages of budding.
  • the mature HIV-1 protease is an obligatory dimer of identical 11 -kDa subunits, each contributing one of the two catalytic aspartic residues.
  • the cell-derived members of the aspartic protease family are monomehc enzymes with two Asp-Thr- Gly-containing domains.
  • the unique dimeric structure of the retroviral protease is mainly stabilized by an antiparallel beta-sheet formed by the interdigitation of the amino- and carboxyl-terminal beta-strands of each monomer.
  • HIV-1 protease i.e. the dimerization and autocatalytic release from Gag-Pol
  • Inhibition of protease activation causes a severe defect in Gag polyprotein processing and a complete loss of viral infectivity.
  • the viral protease has become a target for HIV therapeutics, resulting in many HIV protease inhibitors reaching clinical trials as reviewed by Rana et al. (1999) in Pharmacotherapy 19, 35-59 and Morse et al., (2006) in Lancet Infect. Dis. 6, 215-225.
  • Most of these drugs are substrate-based inhibitors, whose design has been facilitated by an abundance of crystal structure data for both the native enzyme and enzyme- inhibitor complexes. Additionally, there are now extensive biochemical data detailing both the catalytic mechanism and the molecular basis for substrate selection.
