Definitions
- This invention relates to compounds which are inhibitors of the serine protease, tryptase, to pharmaceutical compositions thereof and to their use in the treatment of the human or animal body. More particularly it relates to compounds for use in the treatment of mast cell mediated diseases such as asthma and other allergic and inflammatory conditions, to pharmaceutical compositions thereof and to their use in the treatment of the human or animal body.
- bronchoconstriction i.e. the narrowing of the airways in the lungs
- inflammation in the lungs is an integral part of the development of the disease.
- asthma The inhalation of an allergen by an asthmatic generates a strong immune system response which triggers release of ' various inflammatory mediators, including histamine and leukotrienes from inflammatory cells.
- various inflammatory mediators including histamine and leukotrienes from inflammatory cells.
- These increase the permeability of the blood vessel walls, attract inflammatory cells into the tissues and contract the smooth muscle around the airways. As a result, fluid leaks from the blood and the tissues swell, further narrowing the airways.
- the inflammatory cells cause damage to the epithelial cells lining the airways exposing nerve endings which stimulates secretion of mucous as well as augmenting the inflammation by causing the release of neurokinins .
- asthma is a complex disease frequently characterised by progressive developments of hyper-responsiveness of the trachea and bronchi as a result of chronic inflammation reactions which irritate the epithelium lining the airway and cause pathological thickening of the underlying tissues.
- Leukocytes and mast cells are present in the epithelium and smooth muscle tissue of the bronchi where they are activated initially by binding of specific inhaled antigens to IgE receptors. Activated mast cells release a number of preformed or primary chemical mediators of the inflammatory response in asthma as well as enzymes. Moreover, secondary mediators of inflammation are generated by enzymatic reactions of activated mast cells and a number of large molecules are released by degranulation of mast cells.
- bronchodilator drug which causes airways to expand.
- the most effective bronchodilators are the ⁇ - adrenergic agonists which mimic the actions of adrenalin. These are widely used and are simply administered to the lungs by inhalers.
- bronchoconstrictor drugs are primarily of use in short term symptomatic relief, and do not prevent asthma attacks nor deterioration of lung function over the long term.
- Anti-inflammatory drugs such as cromoglycate and the corticosteroids are also widely used in asthma therapy. Cromoglycate has anti-inflammatory activity and has been found to be extremely safe. Although such cromolyns have minimal side effects and are currently preferred for initial preventive therapy in children, it is well known that they are of limited efficacy.
- corticosteroids in asthma therapy was a major advance since they are very effective anti-inflammatory agents, however, steroids are very powerful, broad spectrum anti-inflammatory agents and their potency and non-specificity means that they are seriously limited by adverse side effects. Localising steroid treatment to the lungs using inhaler technology has reduced side effects but the reduced systemic exposure following inhalation still results in some undesirable effects. Hence, there is a reluctance to use steroids early in the course of the disease.
- Tryptase is the major secretory protease of human mast cells and is proposed to be involved in neuropeptide processing and tissue inflammation. Tryptase is one of a large number of serine protease enzymes which play a central role in the regulation of a wide variety of physiological processes including coagulation, fibrinolysis, fertilization, development, malignancy, neuromuscular patterning and inflammation. Although a large number of serine proteases have been widely investigated, tryptase still remains relatively unexplored.
- Mature human tryptase is a glycosylated, heparin- associated tetramer of catalytically active subunits. Its amino-acid structure appears to have no close counterpart among the other serine proteases which have been characterised. Tryptase is stored in mast cell secretory granules and after mast cell activation, human tryptase can be measured readily in a variety of biological fluids. For example, after anaphylaxis, tryptase appears in the blood stream where it is readily detectable for several hours. Tryptase also appears in samples of nasal and lung lavage fluid from atopic subjects challenged with specific antigen.
- Tryptase has been implicated in a variety of biological processes where activation and degranulation of mast cells occur. Accordingly, mast cell tryptase inhibition may be of great value in the prophylaxis and treatment of a variety of mast cell mediated conditions.
- Mast cells can degranulate by both IgE-dependent and independent mechanisms thereby implicating tryptase in both atopic and non-atopic inflammatory conditions.
- Tryptase can activate proteases such as pro-urokinase and pro-MMP3 (pro-matrix metalloprotease 3, pro-stromelysin) , thereby indicating a pathological role in tissue inflammation and remodelling.
- tryptase can activate certain G-protein coupled receptors (eg PAR2) and induce neurogenic inflammation points to a broader physiological role, for example in modulating pain mechanisms.
- G-protein coupled receptors eg PAR2
- tryptase inhibitors may be beneficial in a broad range of diseases.
- asthma chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
- COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
- pulmonary fibrotic diseases rhinitis; psoriasis; urticaria; dermatitis; arthritis; Crohn' s disease; colitis; angiogenesis; atherosclerosis; multiple sclerosis; interstitial cystitis; migraine headache; neurogenic inflammation and pain mechanisms; wound healing; cirrhosis of the liver; Kimura' s disease; pre-eclampsia; bleeding problems associated with menstruation and the menopause; cancer (particularly melanoma and tumour metastasis); pancreatitis; and certain viral infections (Yong, Exp.
- WO96/09297, W095/32945, WO94/20527 and US 5,525,623 a variety of peptide based compounds are suggested as potential inhibitors of the mast cell protease tryptase.
- a tryptase inhibitor is provided by a polypeptide obtainable from the leech hirudo medicinalis .
- secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI) and active fragments thereof have been found to inhibit the proteolytic activity of tryptase.
- the compounds of the invention will be useful not only in the treatment and prophylaxis of asthma but also of other allergic and inflammatory conditions mediated by tryptase such as allergic rhinitis, skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and urticaria, rheumatoid arthritis, conjunctivitis, inflammatory bowel disease, neurogenic inflammation, atherosclerosis and cancer.
