Abstract
Certain inhibitors of matrix metalloproteases such as collagenase are capable of inhibiting the release of human soluble CD23 and are therefore useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of conditions in which an excess of s-CD23 is implicated, such as allergy and autoimmune disease.
Description
Medical Use
This invention relates to a medical use and in particular to the use of inhibitors of the formation of soluble human CD23 for the treatment of conditions associated with excess production of soluble CD23 (s-CD23) such as autoimmune disease and allergy.
Matrix metalloproteases such as collagenase, stromelysin and gelatinase are known to be involved in connective tissue breakdown. Known classes of matrix metalloprotease inhibitors include derivatives of hydroxamic acid, phosphonates and thiols.
International Patent Application, Publication Number WO 93/20047 discloses that inhibitors of the matrix metalloproteases, especially derivatives of hydroxamic acid, are potentially useful for the treatment or prophylaxis of conditions involving such tissue breakdown, for example rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, osteopenias such as osteoporosis, periodonutis, gingivitis, cornea! epidermal or gastric ulceration, and tumour metastasis or invasion.
WO 93/20047 discloses various derivatives of hydroxamic acid including those from the following patent publications: USP 4599361, EP-A-0236872, EP-A- 0274453, WO 90/05716, WO 90/05719, WO 91/02716, EP-A-0489577, EP-A- 0489579, EP-A-0497192 and WO 92/13831.
CD23 (the low affinity IgE receptor FceRTI, Blast 2), is a 45 kDa type π integral protein expressed on the surface of a variety of mature cells, including B and T lymphocytes, macrophages, natural killer cells, Langerhans cells, monocytes and platelets (Delespesse et al, Adv Immunol, 42 [1991] 149-191). There is also a CD23- like molecule on eosinophils (Grangette et al, J Immunol, JL42 [1989] 3580-3588). CD23 has been implicated in the regulation of the immune response (Delespesse et al, Immunol Rev, 121 [1992] 77-97). Human CD23 exists as two differentially regulated isoforms, a and b, which differ only in the amino acids at the intracellular N-terminus Ofokota et al, Cell, 5 [ [1988] 611-618). In man the constitutive a isoform is found only on B-lymphocytes, whereas type b, inducible by IL4, is found on all cells capable of expressing CD23.
Intact, cell bound CD23 (i-CD23) is known to undergo cleavage from the cell surface leading to the formation of a number of well-defined soluble fragments (s- CD23), which are produced as a result of a complex sequence of proteolytic events, the mechanism of which is still poorly understood (Bourget et al J Biol Chem, 269 [1994] 6927-6930). Although not yet proven, it is postulated that the major soluble fragments (Mr 37, 33, 29 and 25 kDa) of these proteolytic events, all of which retain the C-terminal lectin domain common to i-CD23, occur sequentially via initial formation of the 37 kDa fragment (Letellier et al, J Exp Med, l [1990] 693-700).
An alternative intracellular cleavhge pathway leads to stable 16 kDa fragment differing in the C-terminal domain from i-CD23 (Grenier-Brosette et al, Eur J Immunol, 22 [1992] 1573-1577).
Several activities have been ascribed to membrane bound i-CD23 in humans, all of which have been shown to play a role in IgE regulation. Particular activities include: a) antigen presentation, b) IgE mediated eosinophil cytotoxicity, c) B cell homing to germinal centres of lymph nodes and spleen, and d) downregulation of IgE synthesis (Delespesse et al, Adv Immunol, 42, [1991] 149-191). The three higher molecular weight soluble CD23 fragments (Mr 37, 33 and 29 kDa) have multifunctional cytokine properties which appear to play a major role in IgE production. Thus, the excessive formation of S-CD23 has been implicated in the overproduction of IgE, the hallmark of allergic diseases such as extrinsic asthma, rhinitis, allergic conjuctivitis, eczema, atopic dermatitis and anaphylaxis (Sutton and Gould, Nature, 3 &, [1993] 421-428). Other biological activities attributed to S-CD23 include the stimulation of B cell growth and the induction of the release of mediators from monocytes. Thus, elevated levels of S-CD23 have been observed in the serum of patients having B-chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (Sarfati et al, Blood, 21 [1988] 94-98) and in the synovial fluids of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (Chomarat et al. Arthritis and Rheumarism, 3J_ [1993] 234-242). Because of these various properties of CD23, compounds which inhibit the formation of S-CD23 should have twofold actions of a) enhancing negative feedback inhibition of IgE synthesis by maintaining levels of i-CD23 on the surface of B cells, and b) inhibiting the immunostimulatory cytokine activities of higher molecular weight soluble fragments (Mr 37, 33 and 29 kDa) of S-CD23. It has now surprisingly been found that compounds which inhibit the action of matrix metalloproteases (eg collagenase, stromelysin and gelatinase) are effective inhibitors of the release of human soluble CD23 transfected into mammalian cell culture systems. It is also indicated that-such compounds inhibit the formation of IgE by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells in response to IL4 and stimulation with an antibody to CD40. Inhibitors of the matrix metalloproteases are therefore potentially useful for the treatment or prophylaxis of disorders such as allergy and autoimmune disease in which the overproduction of S-CD23 is implicated. Known classes of matrix metalloprotease inhibitors include derivatives of hydroxamic acid, phosphonic acid and thiols, all of which have been shown to inhibit CD23 proteolysis. The present invention provides the use of certain inhibitors of matrix metalloproteases, for the production of a medicament for the treatment or prophylaxis of disorders such as allergy and autoimmune disease in which the overproduction of S-CD23 is implicated.
In a further aspect the ^nv^ntion prcvides a method for the treatment or prophylaxis of disorders such as allergy and autoimmune disease in which the overproduction of S-CD23 is implicated, which method comprises the administration of certain inhibitors of matrix metalloproteases, to a human or non-human mammal in need thereof.
The matrix metalloprotease inhibitors useful in the present invention are set out in the Table.

As used herein the term "matrix metaUoprotease inhibitor" and equivalent terms means any compound which inhibits any member of the family of zinc and calcium dependent endopepudases (matrix metalloproteases) that have the abUity to degrade components of the connective tissue matrices. Matrix metaUoprotcases and their inhibition are discussed by inter alia Hooper, FEBS Letters 1994, 354,1-6; Gordon et al., Clinical and Experimental Rheumatology 1993, IKSuppl. 8), S91-S94; Woessner, FASEB 1991, 5, 2145-2154; and Birkedal-Hansen, Critical Reviews in Oral Biology and Medicine 1993, 4(2), 197-250. Assays for inhibition of coUagenase, stroraelysin, and gelatinase are described in WO 90/05719, page 67, WO 90/05719, page 68, and EP-A-0489 577, pages 25-26, respectively.
As stated herein an inhibitor of the formation of soluble human CD23, such as a matrix metaUoprotease inhibitor, has useful medical properties. Preferably the active compounds are administered as pharmaceuticaUy acceptable compositions.
The compositions are preferably adapted for oral administration. However, they may be adapted for other modes of administration, for example in the form of a spray, aerosol or other conventional method for inhalation, for treating respiratory tract disorders; or parenteral administration for patients
suffering from heart failure. Othr-.r alternative modes of administration include sublingual or transdermal administration.
The compositions may be in the form of tablets, capsules, powders, granules, lozenges, suppositories, reconstitutable powders, or Uquid preparations, such as oral or sterile parenteral solutions or suspensions.
In order to obtain consistency of administration it is preferred that a composition of the invention is in the form of a unit dose.
Unit dose presentation forms for oral administration may be tablets and capsules and may contain conventional excipients such as binding agents, for example syrup, acacia, gelatin, sorbitol, tragacanth, or polyvinylpyrrolidone; fillers, for example lactose, sugar, maize-starch, calcium phosphate, sorbitol or glycine; tabletting lubricants, for example magnesium stearate; disintegrants, for example starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium starch glycoUate or microcrystaUine ceUulose; or pharmaceutically acceptable wetting agents such as sodium lauryl sulphate.
The solid oral compositions may be prepared by conventional methods of blending, filling or tabletting. Repeated blending operations may be used to distribute the active agent throughout those compositions employing large quantities of fϊUers. Such operations are of course conventional in the art. The tablets may be coated according to methods weU known in normal pharmaceutical practice, in particular with an enteric coating.
Oral Uquid preparations may be in the form of, for example, emulsions, syrups, or eUxirs, or may be presented as a dry product for reconstitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may contain conventional additives such as suspending agents, for example sorbitol, syrup, methyl cellulose, gelatin, hydroxyethylceUulose, carboxymethylceUulose, aluminium stearate gel, hydrogenated edible fats; emulsifying agents, for example lecithin, sorbitan monooleate, or acacia; non-aqueous vehicles (which may include edible oils), for example almond oU, fractionated coconut oil, oily esters such as esters of glycerine, propylene glycol, or ethyl alcohol; preservatives, for example methyl or propyl p-hydroxybenzoate or sorbic acid; and if desired conventional flavouring or colouring agents.
For parenteral administration, fluid unit dosage forms are prepared utilizing the compound and a sterile vehicle, and, depending on the concentration used, can be either suspended or dissolved in the vehicle. In preparing solutions the compound can be dissolved in water for injection and filter sterilized before filling into a suitable vial or ampoule and sealing. Advantageously, adjuvants such as a local anaesthetic, a preservative and
buffering agents can be dissolved in the vehicle. To enhance the stabUity, the composition can be frozen after filling into the vial and the water removed under vacuum. Parenteral suspensions are prepared in substantially the same manner, except that the compound is suspended in the vehicle instead of being dissolved, and sterilization cannot be accomplished by filtration. The compound can be sterilized by exposure to ethylene oxide before suspending in the sterile vehicle. Advantageously, a surfactant or wetting agent is included in the composition to facilitate uniform distribution of the compound.
Compositions of this invention may also suitably be presented for administration to the respiratory tract as a snuff or an aerosol or solution for a nebulizer, or as a microfine powder for insufflation, alone or in combination with an inert carrier such as lactose. In such a case the particles of active compound suitably have diameters of less than 50 microns, preferably less than 10 microns for example diameters in the range of 1-50 microns, 1-10 microns or 1-5 microns. Where appropriate, smaU amounts of other anti-asthmatics and bronchodilators, for example sympathomimetic amines such as isoprenaline, isoetharine, salbutamol, phenylephrine and ephedrine; xanthine derivatives such as theophylline and aminophyUine and corticosteroids such as prednisolone and adrenal stimulants such as ACTH may be included. The compositions may contain from 0.1% to 99% by weight, preferably from 10-60% by weight, of the active material, depending upon the method of administration. A preferred range for inhaled administration is 10-99%, especiaUy 60-99%, for example 90, 95 or 99%.
Microfine powder formulations may suitably be administered in an aerosol as a metered dose or by means of a suitable breath-activated device. Suitable metered dose aerosol formulations comprise conventional propeUants, cosolvents, such as ethanol, surfactants such as oleyl alcohol, lubricants such as oleyl alcohol, desiccants such as calcium sulphate and density modifiers such as sodium chloride. Suitable solutions for a nebulizer are isotonic sterilised solutions, optionally buffered, at for example between pH 4-7, containing up to 20mg/ml of compound but more generally 0.1 to lOmg/ml, for use with standard nebulisation equipment
An effective amount will depend on the relative efficacy of the compounds of the present invention, the severity of the disorder being treated and the weight of the sufferer. Suitably, a unit dose form of a composition of the invention may contain from 0.1 to lOOOmg of a compound of the invention (0.001 to lOmg via inhalation) and more usually from 1 to 500mg, for example 1 to 25 or 5 to 500mg. Such compositions may be administered from 1 to 6
times a day, more usually from 2 to 4 times a day, in a manner such that the daily dose is from lmg to l for a 70 kg human adult and more particularly from 5 to 500mg. That is in the range of about 1.4 x 10~2 mg/kg/day to 14 mg/kg/day and more particularly in the range of about 7 x 10*2 mg/kg/day to 7 mg/kg day.
BIOLOGICAL TEST METHODS
Procedure 1: The ability of test compounds to inhibit the release of soluble CD23 was investigated by use of the foUowing procedure.
RPMI 8866 Cell membrane CD23 cleavage activity assay: Plasma membranes from RPMI 8866 cells, a human Epstein-Barr virus transformed B-cell line (Sarfati et al.. Immunology 60 [1987] 539-547) expressing high levels of CD23 are purified using an aqueous extraction method. Cells resuspended in homogenization buffer (20mM HEPES pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1.5 mM MgC12, 1 mM DTT) are broken by N2 cavitation in a Parr bomb and the plasma membrane fraction mixed with other membranes is recovered by centrifugation at 10,000Xg. The light peUet is resuspended in 0.2 M potassium phosphate, pH 7.2 using 2 ml per 1-3 g wet ceUs and the nuclear peUet is discarded. The membranes are further fractionated by partitioning between Dextran 500 (6.4% w/w) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) 5000 (6.4% w/w) (ref), at 0.25 M sucrose in a total of 16 g per 10-15 mg membrane proteins [Morre and Morre, BioTechniques 7, 946-957 (1989)]. The phases are separated by brief centrifugation at lOOOXg and the PEG (upper) phase is collected, diluted 3-5 fold with 20 mM potassium phosphate buffer pH 7.4, and centrifuged at 10 ,000Xg to recover membranes in that phase. The peUet is resuspended in phosphate-buffered saline and consists of 3-4 fold enriched plasma membranes as weU as some other ceU membranes (e.g. lysosomes, Golgi). The membranes are a quoted and stored at -80°C. Fractionation at 6.6 % Dextran/PEG yields plasma membranes enriched 10-fold.
The fractionated membranes are incubated at 37°C for times up to 4 hrs to produce fragments of CD23 which are separated from the membrane by filtration in 0.2 micron Durapore filter plates (MiUipore) after quenching the assay with 5 uM
Preparation 1 from P 30994. sCD23 re ascd from the membrane is determined using the El A kit from The Binding Site (Birmingham, UK) or a similar one utilizing MHM6 anti-CD23 mAb [Rowe et al., Int J. Cancer, 29, 373-382 (1982)] or another anti-CD23 mAb as the capture antibody in a sandwich EIA.. The amount of soluble CD23 made by 0.5 ug membrane protein in a total volume of 50 ul phosphate- buffered saline is measured by EIA and compared to the amount made in the presence of various concentrations of inhibitors. Inhibitors are prepared in solutions of water or dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and the final DMSO concentration is not more than 2 %. IC50's are determined by curve fitting as the concentration where 50 % inhibition of production of sCD23 is observed relative to the difference in sCD23 between controls incubated without inhibitor.
Procedure 2:
The abitity of test compounds to inhibit the formation of human IgE in vitro was investigated using the foUowing procedure:
Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were separated by centrifugation over Ficoll-Paque (Pharmacia). The ceUs were suspended in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% foetal calf serum, 2mM glutamine, 50 microM 2-mercaptoethanol and 50 micro g/ml gentamycin (TCM) at a concentration of 1.25 x 10^ cells/ml. 800 micro 1 of the cell suspension were aUquoted into the wells of a 48 weU plate. 100 micro 1 of TCM or IL4 at 500ng/ml was added in quadripUcate to the appropriate weUs, followed by 100 micro 1 of TCM or lOx the final concentration of compound under investigation. Test compounds are dissolved in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) at a stock dilution of lO'^M dUuted 1 in 100 in TCM and then as above. The plates are incubated for 12 days at 37°C in a 95% air/5% CO2 humidified incubator. At the end of the culture period the supernatants were removed with the wells and centrifuged (200xg for 10 minutes) to remove any non-adherent cells. There was no toxicity as assessed by trypan blue dye exclusion. The IgE concentration in the supernatants was measured by ELISA.
Procedure 3
The ability of test compounds to inhibit the formation of human IgE in vitro was investigated using the following procedure:
Human tonsiUar B lymphocytes were suspended in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% foetal calf serum, 2mM glutamine, 50 micro M 2-mercaptoethanol and 50 micro g/ml gentamycin (TCM) at a concentration of 1.25 x 10^ cells/ml. 800 micro 1 of the cell suspension were aliquoted into the wells of a 48 well plate. 100 micro 1 of TCM or IL4 at lOOng/ml and antibody to CD40 at 10 microg/ml was added in quadriplicate to the appropriate wells, followed by
100 micro 1 of TCM or lOx the final concentration of compound under investigation. Test compounds are dissolved in DMSO at a stock dilution of 10"2M diluted 1 in 100 in TCM and then as above. The plates are incubated for 11 days at 37°C in a 95% air/5% CO2 humidified incubator. At the end of the culture period the supematents were removed from the we Us and centrifuged (200xg for 10 minutes) to remove any non-adherent cells. There was no toxicity as assessed by trypan dye exclusion. The IgE concentration in the supernatants was measured by ELISA.
