Description

sEH AND 11 β-HSD1 INHIBITORS AND THEIR USE
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention is directed to sEH and 1 1 β-HSD1 inhibitors and their use in the treatment of a variety of conditions mediated by the sEH enzyme or the 11 β-HSD1 enzyme.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Epoxide functional groups may be found in drugs, xenobiotic materials, and endogenous biomolecules. Epoxide hydrolases, found in both plants and animals, are enzymes that convert epoxides to diols by hydrolysis. In mammals, soluble epoxide hydrolase ("sEH") is primarily responsible for the metabolism of arachidonic acid derivatives known as epoxyeicosatrienoic acids ("EETs"). sEH converts EETs into dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acids ("DHETs"). Several publications have described the beneficial vasodilatory, anti-inflamatory, and anti-thrombotic effects of EETs. Spector et al., Prog. Lipid Res., 43, 55-90, 2004; Imig, Cardiovasc. Drug Rev., 24, 169-188, 2006. DHETs are generally inactive and thus do not exhibit the beneficial effects of EETs.
Conversely, microsomal epoxide hydrolase ("mEH") catalyzes the hydrolysis of a broad range of epoxide substrates including carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and reactive epoxides, thus it provides an important detoxification pathway. Polymorphisms in mEH may lead to differences in bioactivation of pro- carcinogens and several human epidemiological studies suggest that mEH genotype is associated with altered cancer risk. Fretland & Omiecinski, Chemico-Biol. Int., 129, 41- 59, 2000.
Pharmacological, knockout mouse phenotype and genetic polymorphism studies suggest that elevated EET levels are protective in numerous disorders including hypertension [Ce// Biochem Biophvs.. 47, 87-98, 2007], heart failure [Xu et al., Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. I/. S. A, 103, 18733-18738, 2006], renal dysfunction / end organ damage [Zhao et al., J. Am. Soc. Nephrol.. 15, 1244-1253, 2004; Imiα et al.. Hypertension. 46, 975-981 , 2005], stroke [Koerner et al., J. Neurosci.. 27; 4642-4649, 2007], atherosclerosis and thrombosis [Wei et al., Atherosclerosis, 190, 26-34, 2007; Krotz et al., Arterioscler. Thromb. Vase. Biol., 24; 595-600, 2004] and inflammation [Inceoglu et al., Life Sci.. 79, 2311-2319, 2006]. One approach to the treatment of such conditions designed to take advantage of the beneficial effect of EETs has been to search for compounds that inhibit sEH thereby preventing EET degradation.
11 beta-hvdroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 ("1 1 β-HSD1 ") is an intracellular enzyme that converts inactive glucocorticoids (e.g. cortisone) to active glucocorticoids (e.g. Cortisol). Draper et al., J Endocrin 186, 251-271 , 2005. Because glucocorticoids activate both glucocorticoid receptors and mineralocorticoid receptors in multiple tissues they can affect endocrine, metabolic, cardiovascular, and immune function. Dallman et al, Endocrinol 145, 2633-2638, 2004; Stulnig et al., Diabetol 47, 1-11 , 2004; Wang, Nutrit Metabol 2, 1-14, 2005; Young et al., CHn Sci 112, 467-475, 2007; Hadoke et al., Cell MoI Life Sci, 63, 565-578, 2006; and Perez de Prada et al., Athero, 191, 333-339, 2007.
Studies suggest that overexpression of the gene that encodes 11 β-HSD1 can lead to cardiovascular and metabolic disorders. For example, liver-specific overexpression of 11 β-HSD1 in mice leads to insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and hypertension [Paterson et al., Proc Natl Acad U.S.A., 101 , 7088-7093, 2004]. Conversely, 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 ("11 β-HSD2") catalyzes the pre-receptor dehydrogenation of active glucocorticoids to an inactive form. 11 β-HSD2 is highly expressed in epithelial tissues and protects the mineralocorticoid receptor from active glucocorticoids (Draper et al., J Endo, 186, 251-271 , 2005). Mutations in the gene that encodes 1 1 β-HSD2 cause a decrease in 1 1 β-HSD2 activity and are associated with hypertension and metabolic disorders in humans (White et al., Endocr Rev 18, 135-156, 1997). Several publications suggest that inhibition of 11 β-HSD1 represents a worthwhile approach to the treatment of the following disorders: metabolic disorders including diabetes, metabolic syndrome, hyperglycemia, and obesity [Andrews et al., J CHn Endo Metab 88, 285-291 , 2003; and Tomlinson et al Nat CHn Prac Endo Metab, 1, 92-99, 2005]; cardiovascular disorders including atherosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and heart failure. [Hermanowski-Vosatka et al., J Exp Med, 202, 517-527, 2005; Berthiaume et al., Am J Physiol Endocrinol Metab, 293, E1045-E1052, 2007; and Hatakeyama et al., Hypertens 33, 1 179-1184, 1999; Krozowski et al. Endo J, 50, 485- 489, 2003, Walker, Eur J Endocrinol, 157. 545-59, 2007]; cognitive disorders including cognitive impairment, dementia, and depression [Sandeep et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci, 101, 6734-6739, 2004 and Belanoff et al., J Psych Res, 35, 127-145, 2001]; glaucoma; osteoporosis; inflammation [Chrousos, Proc Nat Acad Sci, 101, 6329-6330, 2004]; and polycystic ovary syndrome [Gambineri et al., J CHn Endo Metab, 91 , 2295-2302, 2006 and Draper et al., J Endocrin 186, 251-271 , 2005].
Combined Approach
In light of the role sEH plays in the degradation of EETs and the role 11 β-HSD1 plays in the conversion of inactive glucocorticiods to active glucocorticoids, it is desirable to prepare compounds that inhibit sEH activity and 1 1 β-HSD1 activity. Thus, there is a need to identify compounds that inhibit sEH activity and 1 1 β-HSD1 activity, which can be used in the treatment of a variety of conditions mediated by the sEH enzyme or the 11 β- HSD1 enzyme.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The invention is directed to novel sEH and 11 β-HSD1 inhibitors and their use in the treatment of diseases mediated by the sEH enzyme or the 1 1 β-HSD1 enzyme. Specifically, the invention is directed to compounds according to Formula I:

The meaning of any functional group or substituent thereon at any one occurrence in Formula I, or any subformula thereof, is independent of its meaning, or any other functional group's or substituent's meaning, at any other occurrence, unless stated otherwise.
The compounds according to Formula I may contain one or more asymmetric centers (also referred to as a chiral center) and may, therefore, exist as individual enantiomers, diastereomers, or other stereoisomeric forms, or as mixtures thereof. Chiral centers, such as chiral carbon atoms, may also be present in a substituent such as an alkyl group. Where the stereochemistry of a chiral center present in Formula I, or in any chemical structure illustrated herein, is not specified the structure is intended to encompass any stereoisomer and all mixtures thereof. Thus, compounds according to Formula I containing one or more chiral center may be used as racemic mixtures, enantiomerically enriched mixtures, or as enantiomerically pure individual stereoisomers.
Individual stereoisomers of a compound according to Formula I which contain one or more asymmetric center may be resolved by methods known to those skilled in the art. For example, such resolution may be carried out (1 ) by formation of diastereoisomeric salts, complexes or other derivatives; (2) by selective reaction with a stereoisomer-specific reagent, for example by enzamatic oxidation or reduction; or (3) by gas-liquid or liquid chromatography in a chiral enviornment, for example, on a chiral support such as silica with a bound chiral ligand or in the presence of a chiral solvent. The skilled artisan will appreciate that where the desired stereoisomer is converted into another chemical entity by one of the separation procedures described above, a further step is required to liberate the desired form. Alternatively, specific stereoisomers may be synthesized by asymmetric synthesis using optically active reagents, substrates, catalysts or solvents, or by converting one enantiomer to the other by asymmetric transformation.
The compounds according to Formula I may also contain double bonds or other centers of geometric asymmetry. Where the stereochemistry of a center of geometric asymmetry present in Formula I, or in any chemical structure illustrated herein, is not specified, the structure is intended to encompass the trans (E) geometric isomer, the cis (Z) geometric isomer, and all mixtures thereof. Likewise, all tautomeric forms are also included in Formula I whether such tautomers exist in equilibrium or predominately in one form. In certain embodiments, compounds according to Formula (I) may contain a basic functional group and are therefore capable of forming pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts by treatment with a suitable acid. Suitable acids include pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic acids and organic acids. Representative pharmaceutically acceptable acids include hydrogen chloride, hydrogen bromide, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, sulfonic acid, phosphoric acid, acetic acid, hydroxyacetic acid, phenylacetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, valeric acid, maleic acid, acrylic acid, fumaric acid, malic acid, malonic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, salicylic acid, benzoic acid, tannic acid, formic acid, stearic acid, lactic acid, ascorbic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, oleic acid, lauric acid, and the like.
In certain embodiments, compounds according to Formula I may contain an acidic functional group and are therefore capable of forming pharmaceutically-acceptable base addition salts by treatment with a suitable base. Thus, the skilled artisan will appreciate that pharmaceutically-acceptable salts of the compounds according to Formula I may be prepared. Indeed, in certain embodiments of the invention, pharmaceutically-acceptable salts of the compounds according to Formula I may be preferred over the respective free base or free acid because such salts impart greater stability or solubility to the molecule thereby facilitating formulation into a dosage form. Accordingly, the invention is further directed to pharmaceutically-acceptable salts of the compounds according to Formula I.
As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically-acceptable salts" refers to salts that retain the desired biological activity of the subject compound and exhibit minimal undesired toxicological effects. These pharmaceutically-acceptable salts may be prepared in situ during the final isolation and purification of the compound, or by separately reacting the purified compound in its free acid or free base form with a suitable base or acid, respectively.
As used herein, the term "compounds of the invention" means both the compounds according to Formula I and the pharmaceutically-acceptable salts thereof. The term "a compound of the invention" also appears herein and refers to both a compound according to Formula I and its pharmaceutically-acceptable salts.
In the solid state, compounds of the invention can exist in crystalline, semi- crystalline and amorphous forms, as well as mixtures thereof. The skilled artisan will appreciate that pharmaceutically-acceptable solvates of a compound of the invention may be formed wherein solvent molecules are incorporated into the solid-state structure during crystallization. Solvates may involve water or nonaqueous solvents, or mixtures thereof. In addition, the solvent content of such solvates can vary in response to environment and upon storage. For example, water may displace another solvent over time depending on relative humidity and temperature.
Solvates wherein water is the solvent that is incorporated into the solid-state structure are typically referred to as "hydrates." Solvates wherein more than one solvent is incorporated into the solid-state structure are typically referred to as "mixed solvates". Solvates include "stoichiometric solvates" as well as compositions containing variable amounts of solvent (referred to as "non-stoichiometric solvates"). Stoichiometric solvates wherein water is the solvent that is incorporated into the solid-state structure are typically referred to as "stoichiometric hydrates", and non-stoichiometric solvates wherein water is the solvent that is incorporated into the solid-state structure are typically referred to as "non-stoichiometric hydrates". The invention includes both stoichiometric and non- stoichiometric solvates.
In addition, crystalline forms of a compound of the invention, including solvates thereof, may contain solvent molecules, which are not incorporated into the solid-state structure. For example, solvent molecules may become trapped in the crystals upon isolation. In addition, solvent molecules may be retained on the surface of the crystals. The invention includes such forms.
The skilled artisan will further appreciate that compounds of the invention, including solvates thereof, may exhibit polymorphism (i.e. the capacity to occur in different crystalline packing arrangements). These different crystalline forms are typically known as "polymorphs." The invention includes all such polymorphs. Polymorphs have the same chemical composition but differ in packing, geometrical arrangement, and other descriptive properties of the crystalline solid state. Polymorphs, therefore, may have different physical properties such as shape, density, hardness, deformability, stability, and dissolution properties. Polymorphs typically exhibit different IR spectra and X-ray powder diffraction patterns, which may be used for identification. Polymorphs may also exhibit different melting points, which may be used for identification. The skilled artisan will appreciate that different polymorphs may be produced, for example, by changing or adjusting the reaction conditions or reagents, used in making the compound. For example, changes in temperature, pressure, or solvent may result in the production of different polymorphs. In addition, one polymorph may spontaneously convert to another polymorph under certain conditions. Terms and Definitions
"Alkyl" refers to a monovalent saturated hydrocarbon chain having the specified number of member atoms. For example, C1-C8 alkyl refers to an alkyl group having from 1 to 8 member atoms. Alkyl groups may be optionally substituted with one or more substituents as defined herein. Alkyl groups may be straight or branched.

Bicyclic aryl ring refers to napthyl, biphenyl, and to rings wherein phenyl is fused to a cycloalkyl ring having 5, 6, or 7 member atoms. Aryl groups may be optionally substituted with one or more substituents as defined herein.
"Cycloalkyl" refers to a monovalent saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon ring having the specified number of member atoms. For example, C3-C6 cycloalkyl refers to a cycloalkyl group having from 3 to 6 member atoms. Unsaturated Cycloalkyl groups have one or more carbon-carbon double bonds within the ring.

As a result, since both enantiomers are present in equal amounts in a racemic mixture, the enantiomeric excess is zero (0% ee). However, if one enantiomer was enriched such that it constitutes 95% of the product, then the enantiomeric excess would be 90% ee (the amount of the enriched enantiomer, 95%, minus the amount of the other enantiomer, 5%).
"Enantiomerically pure" refers to products whose enantiomeric excess is 99% ee or greater. "Half-life" refers to the time required for half of a quantity of a substance to be converted to another chemically distinct specie in vitro or in vivo.

"Member atoms" refers to the atom or atoms that form a chain or ring. Where more than one member atom is present in a chain and within a ring, each member atom is covalently bound to an adjacent member atom in the chain or ring. Atoms that make up a substituent group on a chain or ring are not member atoms in the chain or ring.
"Optionally substituted" indicates that a group, such as alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, heterocycloalkyl, or heteroaryl, may be unsubstituted or substituted with one or more substituents as defined herein.

In vitro sEH or mEH fluorescence assay
Inhibition of sEH or mEH activity can be measured in a fluorescent assay based upon the format described by Wolf et al. (Analytical Biochemistry Vol. 355 (2006) pp. 71- 80). In the presence of sEH or mEH, PHOME ((3-Phenyl-oxiranyl)-acetic acid cyano-(6- methoxy-naphthalen-2-yl)-methyl ester), is hydrolyzed to a diol which goes through an intramolecular cyclization and the release and decomposition of cyanohydrin (products = cyanide and 6-methoxy-2-naphthaldehyde). Production of 6-methoxy-2-naphthaldehyde is monitored at excitation of 360 nm and an emission of 465 nm. The assay is used in a quenched assay format by sequentially adding enzyme (5 uL; 200 pM sEH or 150 nM mEH in 25 mM Hepes at pH 7.0, 0.01% CHAPS (w/v), 0.005% Casein (w/v); 10 minute ambient pre-incubation after addition) then PHOME substrate (5 ul; 10 uM PHOME substrate in 25 mM Hepes at pH 7.0, 0.01% CHAPS (w/v), 0.005% Casein (w/v)) to a 384 well assay plate (Greiner 784076) pre-stamped with 25-100 nl_ compound at the desired concentration. The reaction is incubated for 30 minutes (sEH assay) or 60 minutes (mEH assay) at room temperature, then quenched by the addition of stop solution (5 uL; 3.33 mM ZnSO4 (sEH assay) or 5OmM ZnSO4 (mEH assay) in water. Microtiter plates are centrifuged after each addition for 30 seconds at 500 rpm. The fluorescence is measured on an EnVision plate reader platform (Perkin Elmer) using a 360 nm excitation filter, 460 nm emission filter, and 400 nm dichroic filter.
Compounds are first prepared in neat DMSO at a concentration of 10 mM, then diluted as required to achieve the desired assay concentration. For inhibition curves, compounds are diluted using a three fold serial dilution and tested at 1 1 concentrations (e.g. 50 μM-0.8 nM or 25 μM-0.42 nM or 2.5 μM to 42 pM). Curves are analysed using ActivityBase and XLfit, and results are expressed as plC50 values. Cell-based sEH inhibitor assay
Cell based sEH inhibition is measured using the 14,15-DHET immunoassay ELISA kit available from Detroit R&D (Cat. No. DH1 ), according to the following procedure:
• HEK293 cells are transduced by sEH BacMam virus to increase sEH expression (other cell lines may be suitable) as follows: One day before the experiment, 1.5 million HEK293 cells (BioCat ID 80556) are seated in 3 ml. of DMEM/F12 {with L- Glutamine, 15 mM HEPES, pH 7.30), with 10% fetal bovine serum {from SAFC
Biosciences, Cat. No.12176-1000M), no antibiotic, in a 25 cm2 flask {from Corning Incorporated, Cat. No.430639) and 30 μl_ sEH BacMam virus is added. The cells are gently mixed then incubated at 37 0C, 5% CO2, for 24 hours.
• The cells are trypsinized to release them from the growth flask, washed once with PBS, then re-suspended in 5 ml. DMEM/F12 without phenol red. Cell density should be approximately 3 * 10 5 cells/mL (= 300 cells/μL), counted using the Cedex AS20 (from Innovatis).
• The cells are then diluted in DMEM/F12 to 5.1 cells/DL, and 98 DL/well (= 500 cells/well) of this cell suspension is transferred to an assay plate {96 well, clear polystyrene, flat bottom, from Whatman, Cat. No.7701-1350). • 2 DL of the diluted test compound is then added to the cells in the assay plate. The reaction plate is shaken gently and incubated at room temperature for 30 min, after which 10 DL of substrate solution is added (substrate solution is prepared by diluting 1.24 DL of 14,15-EET from Cayman Chemical, Cat. No. 50651 with 8.24 DL DMEM/F12). The assay plate is then incubated for one hour at room temperature.
• After the 1 hour reaction, the reaction mixture is diluted 3-fold with provided sample dilution buffer (ex. Add 220 μL to the 1 10 μL reaction mixture), mixed well, and spun for 5 min at 500 rpm.
• 100 μL of the diluted reaction mixture is then transferred from the reaction plates to the ELISA plates, and the ELISA is performed according to the instructions provided in the kit. Concentrations of 14,15-DHET are determined relative to a standard curve.
• The IC50 value is calculated directly using the derived 14, 15-DHET concentration or derived from a dose-respone curve using the % inhibition [% inhibition = 100*(1- (sample DHET - 0 cell DHET) / (500 cells DHET - O cell DHET)]. • Compounds are first prepared in neat DMSO at a concentration of 0.5 mM, then diluted as required to achieve the desired assay concentration. For inhibition curves, compounds are diluted using a three fold serial dilution and tested at 9 concentrations (e.g. 10 μM-1.5 nM). Curves are analysed using ActivityBase and XLfit, and results are expressed as plC50 values.
In vitro 1 1 B-HSD1 scintillation proximity assay
Inhibition of 1 1 β-HSD1 activity can be measured in a scintillation proximity assay
(SPA) based format described by Mundt et al. (ASSAY and Drug Development
Technologies Vol. 3 No. 4 (2005) pp. 367-375). The assay measures the β-NADPH dependent reductase activity of Human 11 β-HSD1 upon cortisone substrate to yield the active glucocorticoid Cortisol.
Microsomal membranes are prepared from frozen cell pellets of Super 9 (in- house generated variant of Sf9 insect cells) infected for approximately 72 hours with baculovirus encoding for human 11 B-HSD1. Ten volumes of ice-cold, lysis solution (2OmM sodium phosphate buffer pH7.0, 5% glycerol, 1 mM EDTA, and Protease Inhibitor Cocktail III at 1 :500 [Calbiochem, San Diego, CA]) is added per gram of cell pellet, and the pellet kept on ice until it can be loosened from the tube. The slurry is transferred to a glass Waring blender, and the following process repeated four times: homogenization for 15 seconds on high followed by a 5 minute incubation on ice. After transfer to tubes, the homogenate is centrifuged at 600xg for 10 minutes at 40C; the supernatant from this spin is transferred to ultracentrifuge tubes which are spun at 100000xg for one hour at 40C. The cell pellet is resuspended in ice-cold 4OmM phosphate buffer, pH7.5 with 5% glycerol and 1 mM EDTA, aliquoted, and stored at - 8O0C. The total protein recovered is determined with commercial protein assay kit using bovine albumin as the standard.
. Assays are initiated by incubating 0.5 uL of compound sample in the presence of 15 ugs/mL of Sf9 microsomes, 1 mM β-NADPH, and 16 nM [3H]cortisone ([S]/Km < 10) in buffer containing 50 mM HEPES, 100 mM KCI, 5 mM NaCI, 2 mM MgCI2, 0.02% Brij-35 (w/v) pH 7.4 in a reaction volume of 50 uL. The assay is incubated for 3 hours at 37 °C before quenching the reaction with 25 uL of 10 uM 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid, a potent natural product inhibitor of 11 β-HSD1 , and 8 mg/ml_ Protein-A-coated Yttrium silicate SPA beads pre-absorbed with 2.1 ug/mL monoclonal Cortisol antibody in the presence of Superblock® Blocking Buffer (Pierce, Rockford, IL). Microtiter plates are sealed and incubated overnight before detection of scintillation on a ViewLux Plate Imager for 10 minutes using a clear filter.
Compounds are first prepared in neat DMSO at a concentration of 10 mM, then diluted as required to achieve the desired assay concentration. For inhibition curves, compounds are diluted using a three fold serial dilution and tested at 1 1 concentrations (e.g. 50 μM-0.8 nM or 25 μM-0.42 nM or 2.5 μM to 42 pM). Curves are analysed using ActivityBase and XLfit, and results are expressed as plC50 values.
In vitro 1 1 B-HSD2 scintillation proximity assay
Compounds (0 - 100 μM) are pre-incubated with recombinant microsomal human 11 β-HSD2 (10 μg/ml) and 1 mM NAD+ in assay buffer (50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 100 mM KCI, 5 mM NaCI, 0.2 mM MgCI2, and 2% DMSO) at ambient temperature for 20 min. Wells containing 10 μM glycyrrhetinic acid, a potent natural product 11 β-HSD2 inhibitor, serves as background control. Reactions are initiated with the addition of 10 nM [3H]- cortisol (36.5 nCi; [cortisol]/Km ~ 1 ), incubated at ambient temperature for 60 min (which is within the linear response time of the assay), and quenched with the addition of 20 μM glycyrrhetinic acid. Remaining [3H]-cortisol is assayed by addition of 0.7 mg (to a final concentration of 0.6 mg/ml) Protein A-YSi SPA beads (GE Healthcare) pre-complexed with a murine anti-cortisol monoclonal antibody (East Coast Bio, East Berwick, ME). Reaction mixtures are incubated with SPA beads for at least 16 hours at ambient temperature, and cpm is measured on a Microbeta Trilux scintillation plate counter (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA). Percent inhibition (%/) is calculated at each compound concentration using Equation 1 : n) where cpm, min, and max refer to counts per minute of reaction in presence of compound, 10 μM glycyrrhetinic acid, and 2% DMSO, respectively. IC50 values (the concentration of compound that yields 50% enzyme inhibition) are calculated by plotting %/ versus logarithm of the compound concentration, and fitting the data to a four- parameter Hill equation (Equation 2): n / T i t°P - bottom . _.
%/ = bottom + 1 ι 1 y r\( ,.iogI τrC5.n0-x λ)'H ..iU.. ( v2) ' where bottom and top are the lower and upper asymptotes of the sigmoidal curve, respectively, and Hill refers to the Hill slope of the curve. Fits are constrained by fixing bottom and top as 0% and 100%l, respectively.

Methods of Use
The compounds of the invention inhibit the sEH enzyme and the 11 β-HSD1 enzyme and can be useful in the treatment of conditions wherein the underlying pathology is (at least in part) attributable to sEH and/or 1 1 β-HSD1 involvement or in conditions wherein sEH and/or 1 1 β-HSD1 inhibition offers some clinical benefit even though the underlying pathology is not (even in part) attributable to sEH and/or 11 β- HSD1 involvement. Examples of such conditions include hypertension, organ failure / damage (including heart failure, renal failure, cardiac and renal fibrosis, and liver failure), peripheral vascular disease (including ischemic limb disease, intermittent claudication, endothelial dysfunction, erectile dysfunction, Raynaud's disease, and diabetic vasculopathies e.g. retinopathy), atherosclerosis, atherothrombotic disorders (including coronary artery disease, coronary vasospasm, angina, stroke, myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction, and hyperlipidemia), metabolic disorders (including diabetes, metabolic syndrome, hyperglycemia, and obesity), inflammation, inflammatory disorders (including arthritis, inflammatory pain, overactive bladder, asthma, and COPD), cognitive disorders (including cognitive impairment, dementia, and depression), glaucoma, osteoporosis, and polycystic ovary syndrome. Accordingly, in another aspect the invention is directed to methods of treating such conditions. Essential hypertension is commonly associated with the development of significant end organ damage such as renal, endothelial, myocardial, and erectile dysfunction. Such conditions occur "secondary" to the elevated systemic arterial blood pressure. Secondary conditions may be prevented by treatment of the underlying ("primary") cause. Accordingly, in another aspect the invention is directed to methods of preventing such secondary conditions.
Heart failure is a complex heterogenous disorder characterized by reduced cardiac output, resulting in the inability of the heart to meet perfusion demands of the body. Cardiac proinflammatory cytokine recruitment and maladaptive cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis and apoptosis/necrosis are factors associated with the progression of heart failure. Compounds of the invention are directed to methods of treating such conditions.
In addition, sEH is indirectly involved in the regulation of platelet function through its effect on EETs. Drugs that inhibit platelet aggregation are believed to decrease the risk of atherthrombotic events, such as myocardial infarction and stroke, in patients with established cardiovascular atherosclerotic disease. Accordingly, in another aspect the invention is directed to methods of preventing atherothrombotic events, such as myocardial infarction and stroke in patients with a history of recent myocardial infarction, stroke, transient ischemic attacks, unstable angina, or atherosclerosis. The methods of treating and the methods of preventing described above comprise administering a safe and effective amount of a compound of the invention to a patient in need thereof.
As used herein, "treatment" in reference to a condition means: (1 ) the amelioration or prevention of the condition being treated or one or more of the biological manifestations of the condition being treated, (2) the interference with (a) one or more points in the biological cascade that leads to or is responsible for the condition being treated or (b) one or more of the biological manifestations of the condition being treated, or (3) the alleviation of one or more of the symptoms or effects associated with the condition being treated.
As indicated above, "treatment" of a condition includes prevention of the condition. The skilled artisan will appreciate that "prevention" is not an absolute term. In medicine, "prevention" is understood to refer to the prophylactic administration of a drug to substantially diminish the likelihood or severity of a condition or biological manifestation thereof, or to delay the onset of such condition or biological manifestation thereof.
As used herein, "safe and effective amount" in reference to a compound of the invention or other pharmaceutically-active agent means an amount of the compound sufficient to significantly induce a positive modification in the condition to be treated but low enough to avoid serious side effects (at a reasonable benefit/risk ratio) within the scope of sound medical judgment. A safe and effective amount of a compound of the invention will vary with the particular compound chosen (e.g. consider the potency, efficacy, and half-life of the compound); the route of administration chosen; the condition being treated; the severity of the condition being treated; the age, size, weight, and physical condition of the patient being treated; the medical history of the patient being treated; the duration of the treatment; the nature of concurrent therapy; the desired therapeutic effect; and like factors, but can nevertheless be determined by the skilled artisan.
As used herein, "patient" refers to a human or other animal. The compounds of the invention may be administered by any suitable route of administration, including both systemic administration and topical administration. Systemic administration includes oral administration, parenteral administration, transdermal administration, rectal administration, and administration by inhalation. Parenteral administration refers to routes of administration other than enteral, transdermal, or by inhalation, and is typically by injection or infusion. Parenteral administration includes intravenous, intramuscular, and subcutaneous injection or infusion. Inhalation refers to administration into the patient's lungs whether inhaled through the mouth or through the nasal passages. Topical administration includes application to the skin as well as intraocular, otic, intravaginal, and intranasal administration.
The compounds of the invention may be administered once or according to a dosing regimen wherein a number of doses are administered at varying intervals of time for a given period of time. For example, doses may be administered one, two, three, or four times per day. Doses may be administered until the desired therapeutic effect is achieved or indefinitely to maintain the desired therapeutic effect. Suitable dosing regimens for a compound of the invention depend on the pharmacokinetic properties of that compound, such as absorption, distribution, and half-life, which can be determined by the skilled artisan. In addition, suitable dosing regimens, including the amount administered and the duration such regimens are administered, for a compound of the invention depend on the condition being treated, the severity of the condition being treated, the age and physical condition of the patient being treated, the medical history of the patient to be treated, the nature of concurrent therapy, the particular route of administration chosen, the desired therapeutic effect, and like factors within the knowledge and expertise of the skilled artisan. It will be further understood by such skilled artisans that suitable dosing regimens may require adjustment given an individual patient's response to the dosing regimen or over time as individual patient needs change. Typical daily dosages range from 1 mg to 1000 mg.
Additionally, the compounds of the invention may be administered as prodrugs.
