Definitions
- the present invention relates to a combination of two or more pharmaceutically active substances for use in the treatment of respiratory diseases (for example chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma).
- respiratory diseases for example chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma.
- COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
- Respiratory diseases include Acute Lung Injury, Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), occupational lung disease, lung cancer, tuberculosis, fibrosis, pneumoconiosis, pneumonia, emphysema, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and asthma.
- ARDS Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
- COPD Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
- Asthma is generally defined as an inflammatory disorder of the airways with clinical symptoms arising from intermittent airflow obstruction. It is characterised clinically by paroxysms of wheezing, dyspnea and cough. It is a chronic disabling disorder that appears to be increasing in prevalence and severity. It is estimated that 15% of children and 5% of adults in the population of developed countries suffer from asthma. Therapy should therefore be aimed at controlling symptoms so that normal life is possible and at the same time provide basis for treating the underlying inflammation.
- COPD is a term which refers to a large group of lung diseases which can interfere with normal breathing.
- Current clinical guidelines define COPD as a disease state characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible.
- the airflow limitation is usually both progressive and associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles and gases.
- the most important contributory source of such particles and gases is tobacco smoke.
- COPD patients have a variety of symptoms, including cough, shortness of breath, and excessive production of sputum; such symptoms arise from dysfunction of a number of cellular compartments, including neutrophils, macrophages, and epithelial cells.
- the two most important conditions covered by COPD are chronic bronchitis and emphysema.
- Chronic bronchitis is a long-standing inflammation of the bronchi which causes increased production of mucous and other changes. The patients' symptoms are cough and expectoration of sputum. Chronic bronchitis can lead to more frequent and severe respiratory infections, narrowing and plugging of the bronchi, difficult breathing and disability.
- Emphysema is a chronic lung disease which affects the alveoli and/or the ends of the smallest bronchi.
- the lung loses its elasticity and therefore these areas of the lungs become enlarged. These enlarged areas trap stale air and do not effectively exchange it with fresh air. This results in difficult breathing and may result in insufficient oxygen being delivered to the blood.
- the predominant symptom in patients with emphysema is shortness of breath.
- Corticosteroids also known as glucocorticosteroids or glucocorticoids
- glucocorticosteroids are potent anti-inflammatory agents. Whilst their exact mechanism of action is not clear, the end result of corticosteroid treatment is a decrease in the number, activity and movement of inflammatory cells into the bronchial submucosa, leading to decreased airway responsiveness. Corticosteroids may also cause reduced shedding of bronchial epithelial lining, vascular permeability, and mucus secretion. Whilst corticosteroid treatment can yield important benefits, the efficacy of these agents is often far from satisfactory, particularly in COPD.
- a further class of therapeutic agent used in the treatment of respiratory diseases are bronchodilators.
- Bronchodilators may be used to alleviate symptoms of respiratory diseases by relaxing the bronchial smooth muscles, reducing airway obstruction, reducing lung hyperinflation and decreasing shortness of breath.
- Types of bronchodilators in clinical use include ⁇ 2 adrenoceptor agonists, muscarinic receptor antagonists and methylxanthines. Bronchodilators are prescribed mainly for symptomatic relief and they are not considered to alter the natural history of respiratory diseases.
- Symbicort ® (marketed by AstraZeneca under the tradename Symbicort ®), which has proven to be effective in controlling asthma and COPD, and improving quality of life in many patients.

The present invention relates to a combination of two or more pharmaceutically active substances for use in the treatment of respiratory diseases (for example chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma).
The essential function of the lungs requires a fragile structure with enormous exposure to the environment, including pollutants, microbes, allergens, and carcinogens. Host factors, resulting from interactions of lifestyle choices and genetic composition, influence the response to this exposure. Damage or infection to the lungs can give rise to a wide range of diseases of the respiratory system (or respiratory diseases). A number of these diseases are of great public health importance. Respiratory diseases include Acute Lung Injury, Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), occupational lung disease, lung cancer, tuberculosis, fibrosis, pneumoconiosis, pneumonia, emphysema, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and asthma.
Among the most common of the respiratory diseases is asthma. Asthma is generally defined as an inflammatory disorder of the airways with clinical symptoms arising from intermittent airflow obstruction. It is characterised clinically by paroxysms of wheezing, dyspnea and cough. It is a chronic disabling disorder that appears to be increasing in prevalence and severity. It is estimated that 15% of children and 5% of adults in the population of developed countries suffer from asthma. Therapy should therefore be aimed at controlling symptoms so that normal life is possible and at the same time provide basis for treating the underlying inflammation.
COPD is a term which refers to a large group of lung diseases which can interfere with normal breathing. Current clinical guidelines define COPD as a disease state characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. The airflow limitation is usually both progressive and associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles and gases. The most important contributory source of such particles and gases, at least in the western world, is tobacco smoke. COPD patients have a variety of symptoms, including cough, shortness of breath, and excessive production of sputum; such symptoms arise from dysfunction of a number of cellular compartments, including neutrophils, macrophages, and epithelial cells. The two most important conditions covered by COPD are chronic bronchitis and emphysema.
Chronic bronchitis is a long-standing inflammation of the bronchi which causes increased production of mucous and other changes. The patients' symptoms are cough and expectoration of sputum. Chronic bronchitis can lead to more frequent and severe respiratory infections, narrowing and plugging of the bronchi, difficult breathing and disability.
Emphysema is a chronic lung disease which affects the alveoli and/or the ends of the smallest bronchi. The lung loses its elasticity and therefore these areas of the lungs become enlarged. These enlarged areas trap stale air and do not effectively exchange it with fresh air. This results in difficult breathing and may result in insufficient oxygen being delivered to the blood. The predominant symptom in patients with emphysema is shortness of breath.
Therapeutic agents used in the treatment of respiratory diseases include corticosteroids. Corticosteroids (also known as glucocorticosteroids or glucocorticoids) are potent anti-inflammatory agents. Whilst their exact mechanism of action is not clear, the end result of corticosteroid treatment is a decrease in the number, activity and movement of inflammatory cells into the bronchial submucosa, leading to decreased airway responsiveness. Corticosteroids may also cause reduced shedding of bronchial epithelial lining, vascular permeability, and mucus secretion. Whilst corticosteroid treatment can yield important benefits, the efficacy of these agents is often far from satisfactory, particularly in COPD. Moreover, whilst the use of steroids may lead to therapeutic effects, it is desirable to be able to use steroids in low doses to minimise the occurrence and severity of undesirable side effects that may be associated with regular administration. Recent studies have also highlighted the problem of the acquisition of steroid resistance amongst patients suffering from respiratory diseases. For example, cigarette smokers with asthma have been found to be insensitive to short term inhaled corticosteroid therapy, but the disparity of the response between smokers and non-smokers appears to be reduced with high dose inhaled corticosteroid (Tomlinson et al., Thorax 2005;60:282-287).
A further class of therapeutic agent used in the treatment of respiratory diseases are bronchodilators. Bronchodilators may be used to alleviate symptoms of respiratory diseases by relaxing the bronchial smooth muscles, reducing airway obstruction, reducing lung hyperinflation and decreasing shortness of breath. Types of bronchodilators in clinical use include β2 adrenoceptor agonists, muscarinic receptor antagonists and methylxanthines. Bronchodilators are prescribed mainly for symptomatic relief and they are not considered to alter the natural history of respiratory diseases.
6-Fluoro-N-(( 1 s,4s)-4-(6-fluoro-2,4-dioxo- 1 -(4'-(piperazin- 1 -ylmethyl)-biphenyl-3 - yl)-l,2-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3(4H)-yl)cyclohexyl)imidazo[l,2-a]pyridine-2- carboxamide and many of its salts (such as the (lS)-(+)-10-Camphorsulfonic acid salt) are inhibitors of PDE4 and are disclosed in PCT/GB2008/000061. Combination products comprising a β2 adrenoceptor agonist and a corticosteroid are available. One such product is a combination of budesonide and formoterol fumarate
(marketed by AstraZeneca under the tradename Symbicort ®), which has proven to be effective in controlling asthma and COPD, and improving quality of life in many patients.
In view of the complexity of respiratory diseases such as asthma and COPD, it is unlikely that any one mediator can satisfactorily treat a respiratory disease alone.
Moreover, whilst combination treatments using a β2 adrenoceptor agonist and a corticosteroid deliver significant patient benefits, there remains a medical need for new therapies against respiratory diseases such as asthma and COPD, in particular for therapies with disease modifying potential. Accordingly, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical product comprising, in combination, a first active ingredient which is 6-fluoro-N-((ls,4s)-4-(6-fluoro-2,4-dioxo-l-
(4'-(piperazin-l-ylmethyl)-biphenyl-3-yl)-l,2-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3(4H)- yl)cyclohexyl)imidazo[l,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxamide or a salt thereof, and a second active ingredient selected from: a non-steroidal Glucocorticoid Receptor (GR Receptor) Agonist; an antioxidant; a β2 adrenoceptor agonist; a CCRl antagonist; a chemokine antagonist (not CCRl); a corticosteroid; a CRTh2 antagonist; a DPI antagonist; an Histone Deacetylase Inducer; an IKK2 inhibitor; a COX inhibitor; a lipoxygenase inhibitor; a leukotriene receptor antagonist; a MABA compound;
an MPO inhibitor; a muscarinic antagonist; a p38 inhibitor; a PPARγ agonist; a protease inhibitor; a Statin; a thromboxane antagonist; a vasodilator; or, an ENAC blocker (Epithelial Sodium-channel blocker).

A suitable salt of 6-fluoro-N-((l s,4s)-4-(6-fluoro-2,4-dioxo- 1 -(4'-(piperazin- 1 - ylmethyl)-biphenyl-3-yl)-l,2-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3(4H)- yl)cyclohexyl)imidazo[l,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxamide is, for example, a hydrochloride (such as a trihydrochloride), hydrobromide (such as dihydrobromide), trifluoroacetate, sulphate, phosphate, acetate, fumarate, maleate, tartrate, lactate, citrate, pyruvate, succinate, oxalate, methanesulphonate, /?-toluenesulphonate, bisulphate, benzenesulphonate, ethanesulphonate, malonate, xinafoate, ascorbate, oleate, nicotinate, saccharinate, adipate, formate, glycolate, L-lactate, D-lactate, aspartate, malate, L-tartrate, D-tartrate, stearate, 2-furoate, 3-furoate, napadisylate (naphthalene- 1, 5 -disulfonate or naphthalene- 1 -(sulfonic acid)-5-sulfonate), edisylate (ethane- 1,2 -disulfonate or ethane- 1- (sulfonic acid)-2-sulfonate), isethionate (2-hydroxyethylsulfonate), 2- mesitylenesulphonate, 2-naphthalenesulphonate, 2,5-dichlorobenzenesulphonate, D- mandelate, L-mandelate, cinnamate, benzoate, adipate, esylate, malonate, mesitylate (2- mesitylenesulphonate), napsylate (2-naphthalenesulfonate), camsylate (camphor- 10- sulphonate, for example (lS)-(+)-10-Camphorsulfonic acid salt), formate, glutamate, glutarate, glycolate, hippurate (2-(benzoylamino)acetate), orotate, xylate (p-xylene-2- sulphonate), pamoic (2,2'-dihydroxy-l,r-dinaphthylmethane-3,3'-dicarboxylate), palmitate or furoate.
In one aspect the present invention provides a pharmaceutical product wherein the first active ingredient is 6-fluoro-N-((ls,4s)-4-(6-fluoro-2,4-dioxo-l-(4'-(piperazin-l-ylmethyl)-
biphenyl-3-yl)- 1 ,2-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3(4H)-yl)cyclohexyl)imidazo[ 1 ,2- a]pyridine-2-carboxamide as a (lS)-(+)-10-Camphorsulfonic acid or trihydrochloride salt.

Preparation of 6-Fluoro-N-(cis-4-(6-fluoro- 1 -(3-iodophenyl)-2,4-dioxo- 1 ,2- dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3(4H)-yl) cyclohexyl)imidazo[ 1 ,2-a]pyridine-2- carboxamide hydrochloride t-Butyl cis-4-(6-fluoro-l-(3-iodophenyl)-2,4-dioxo-l,2-dihydropyrido[2,3- d]pyrimidin-3(4H)-yl) cyclohexylcarbamate (78.6% assay; 16.01 g; 21.7 mmol) and acetonitrile (76.0 g) were charged to a round-bottomed flask with overhead stirring; internal temperature dropped to 16.30C. Aqueous hydrochloric acid (35-37%; 11.8Ig; 116.6 mmol) was added whereupon the temperature rose to 21.70C. The suspension was heated to 340C. Additional aqueous hydrochloric acid (35-37%; 1.42g; 14.1 mmol) was charged to form a cloudy suspension. After 20 minutes the cloudy suspension turned clear with oily drops within it. The reaction mixture was distilled under vacuum (maximum temperature 35°C) in several cycles. After each cycle acetonitrile was added to replace the solvent that had been distilled; in total 230.9 g of acetontrile were added over four cycles. In total, 21O g of distillate was collected. The residue was a yellow to light brown oil
containing a small amount of crystals (water content by Karl Fischer = 1.21%). With the temperature at 23.4°C, triethylamine (18.4O g; 181.8 mmol) was added over 10 minutes to give a mobile light-coloured slurry. The mixture was cooled to 0.50C and then held overnight under nitrogen atmosphere (for convenience). With the internal temperature at 12.60C, 6-fluoroimidazo[l,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid hydrochloride (96% assay; 4.91 g; 21.8 mmol) was charged to the vessel causing the temperature to rise from 15.60C to 20.80C; small lumps were formed which dissipated on stirring and a smooth slurry was obtained. In process control by HPLC at 220 nm showed 49.2 area-% of 6-fluoroimidazo[l,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid hydrochloride and 50.4 area-% of 3-(cis-4-aminocyclohexyl)-6-fluoro-l-(3-iodophenyl) pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine- 2,4(1 H,3H)-dione. The reaction was cooled to 10.30C. T3P in THF (50%; 27.3 g; 42.9 mmol) was charged over 1 hour keeping the temperature below 12°C. The temperature was then increased to 5O0C. Water (25.0 g) was added over 40 minutes whilst maintaining the temperature at 500C. After a further 1 hour 45 minutes the mixture was cooled to 27.6°C over 90 minutes. The mixture was left to cool further and was stirred overnight (16 hours). With the temperature at 180C, water (101.1 g) was slowly dosed in over 1 hour (initially at 0.5 ml/minute). With the temperature at 16°C the product was isolated by vacuum filtration. The filter cake was rinsed with aqueous acetonitrile (40%; 27.0 g) and water (84.Ig). The filter cake was sucked dry to give 15.40 g of wet product. The wet product was homogenized in a closed container and 3.653 g was dried in a vacuum cabinet overnight at 710C to give 2.684 g of dry product.

The present invention will now be further explained by reference to the following illustrative Examples.
Example 1
Evaluation of compound activity on intra-alveolar neutrophil migration after aerosol challenge with lipopolysaccharride (LPS) in the CRLrCD rat
LPS challenge in CRL:CD rats causes an influx of inflammatory cells into the lungs. Rats are challenged either with an aerosol of 0.9% w/v saline or O.lmg/mL LPS in 0.9% saline for 30 min or an intratracheal dose of 0.1-10μg/kg. This is repeated up to 8 times according to the experimental protocol. Rats are dosed with vehicle, standard compound or test compound by the appropriate route and frequency at various time points before and after challenge depending upon the experimental protocol. Test compound groups could either be the same compound at different doses or single doses of different compounds or a combination of the two. Test compounds are given by intraperitoneal, intravenous or subcutaneous injection or by inhalation or intratracheal administration.
The rats are euthanized at various time points after challenge depending upon the nature of the study, but typically 4hr after LPS challenge with ImL pentobarbitone sodium. A tracheotomy is performed and a cannula inserted. The airway is then lavaged using 3 mL sterile PBS at room temperature. The PBS is left in the airway for 10 seconds before being removed. The PBS containing cells is placed into a 15 mL centrifuge tube on ice. This process is repeated three times.
An aliquot of BAL fluid is removed and counted on Sysmex (Sysmex UK, Milton Keynes). Cytospin slides are prepared by adding a 100 μl aliquot of BAL fluid into cytospin funnels in a Shandon Cytospin3 operated at 700 rpm for 5 min. Slides are stained on the Hema-Tek-2000 automatic slide stainer, using Wright-Giemsa stain and typically, 200 cells are counted under a microscope. Cells are classified as eosinophils, neutrophils and mononuclear cells (mononuclear cells included monocytes, macrophages and lymphocytes) and are expressed as a percentage of the total count.
Example 2
Evaluation of lung function in anaesthetised guinea-pigs
Male Dunkin-Hartley guinea-pigs (300-60Og) are weighed and dosed with either vehicle or compound in an appropriate vehicle according to the experimental protocol via the intratracheal route under recoverable gaseous anaesthesia (5% halothane in oxygen).
Following dosing, the animals are administered supplemental oxygen and monitored until full recovery. Typically a dose volume of 0.5 mL/kg is used for the intratracheal route. In a dose response study, animals are dosed with compound or vehicle two hours prior to the
administration of histamine. Test compound groups could either be the same compound at different doses or single doses of different compounds or a combination of the two.
The guinea-pigs are anaesthetised with pentobarbitone (1 mL/kg of 60 mg/mL solution intraperitoneally) approximately 30 minutes prior to the first bronchoconstrictor administration. The trachea is cannulated (Portex intravenous cannula, 200/300/070 (orange) or 200/300/060 (yellow)) and the animal ventilated using a constant volume respiratory pump (Harvard Rodent Ventilator model 683) at a rate of 60 breath/min and a tidal volume of 5 ml/kg. A jugular vein is cannulated (Portex intravenous catheter 200/300/010 (green)) for the administration of histamine or maintenance anaesthetic (0.1 mL of pentobarbitone solution, 60 mg/mL, as required).
The animals are then transferred to a Flexivent System (SCIREQ, Montreal, Canada) in order to measure airway resistance. The animals are ventilated (quasi-sinusoidal ventilation pattern) at 60 breaths/min at a tidal volume of 5 mL/kg. A positive end expiratory pressure of 2-3 CmH2O is applied. Respiratory resistance is measured using the Flexivent "snapshot" facility (1 second duration, 1 Hz frequency). Once stable baseline resistance value has been obtained the animals are given histamine dihydrochloride or methacholine in ascending doses (histamine; 0.5, 1, 2, 3 and 5μg/kg, i.v., methacholine; 3, 10 and 30 μg/kg, i.v.) at approximately 4-minute intervals via the jugular catheter. After each administration of histamine the peak resistance value is recoreded. Guinea pigs are euthanised with approximately 1.OmL pentobarbitone sodium (Euthatal) intravenously after the completion of the lung function measurements. Percentage bronchoprotection produced by a compound is calculated at each dose of histamine as follows:
% changeRveh - % changeRcmpd
% bronchoprotection = ■
% changeRv 'eh
Where % change Rveh is the mean of the maximum percentage change in airway resistance in the vehicle treated group.
Example 3
Evaluation of Compounds on Antigen induced Eosinophilia in Ovalbumin Sensitised Brown Norway Rats
On day 0 of the study Brown Norway rats are given a subcutaneous injection of 500 μg ovalbumin adsorbed onto 100 mg aluminium hydroxide in 0.4 mL saline in two distinct sites, approximately 0.2 mL per site. Day 14 and 15 following sensitisation the rats are challenged with aerosolised ovalbumin for 15 minutes. The rats are placed in groups of 10 in an acrylic box (internal dimensions 320mm wide x 320mm deep x 195 mm high, 2OL volume). 8mL of 10 mg/mL ovalbumin in 0.9% saline, or 0.9% saline alone, is placed in each of two jet nebulizers (Sidestream®, Profile Respiratory Systems Ltd.). Compressed air at 6 L/min is passed through each nebulizer and the output of the nebulizers is passed into the box containing the rats.
Rats are dosed via the appropriate route with vehicle, standard compound or test compound at various time points before and after challenge depending upon the experimental protocol. Rats are euthanised with 0.5 mL pentobarbitone sodium (Euthatal) intraperitoneally at various times after challenge. A tracheotomy is performed and the trachea cannulated. The airway is then lavaged using 3 mL sterile PBS at room temperature. The PBS is left in the airway for 10 seconds before being removed. The PBS containing cells is placed into a 15 mL centrifuge tube on ice. This process is repeated three times. The final volume recovered is recorded. An aliquot of BAL fluid is removed and counted using a Sysmex (Sysmex UK, Milton Keynes).
Cytospin slides are prepared by adding a 100 μl aliquot of BAL fluid into cytospin funnels in a Shandon Cytospin 3 operated at 700 rpm for 5 min. Slides are stained on the Hema- Tek-2000 automatic slide stainer, using Wright-Giemsa stain and typically, 200 cells are counted under a microscope. Cells are classified as eosinophils, neutrophils and mononuclear cells. Mononuclear cells included monocytes, macrophages and lymphocytes.
Example 4
Evaluation on the effect of compound on lung function and BAL-neutrophilia following acute smoke exposure in the mouse BALB/c or C57BL6/J mice undergo whole body exposure to main stream smoke (50 min/ 12 cigarettes) and fresh air once or twice a day for 1-9 days. Mice are dosed via the appropriate route with vehicle, standard compound or test compound at various time points before and after challenge depending upon the experimental protocol. On the final day of the experiment, mice are either killed with euthatal 0.2 ml i.p. and broncho-aveolar lavage
fluid obtained for analysis of white blood cell infiltration (as described above) or lung function is assessed using a Flexivent System (SCIREQ, Montreal, Canada). Alternatively lung mechanics are measured using a forced manoeuvres system (EMMS).
Mice are anaesthetised with pentobarbitone (1/lOdilution at a dose volume of 1 mL/kg intraperitoneally). The trachea is cannulated and the animal transferred to the Flexivent System where they are ventilated (quasi-sinusoidal ventilation pattern) at a rate of 150 breath/min and a tidal volume of 10 ml/kg in order to measure airways resistance. Respiratory resistance is measured using the Flexivent "snapshot" facility (1 second duration, 1 Hz frequency). Mice are euthanised with approximately 0.5mL pentobarbitone sodium (Euthatal) intravenously after the completion of the lung function measurements.
Example 5
Evaluation of bronchodilator activity in the guinea-pig isolated tracheal ring preparation.
Guinea-pigs (300-60Og) are killed by cervical dislocation and the trachea removed. After clearing the adherent connective tissue, the trachea is cut into four ring segments (2-3 cartilage rings in width) and suspended in 10ml organ baths containing modified Krebs' solution (gassed with 5% CO2, 95% O2 at 37°C). The tracheal rings are attached to an isometric force transducer for the measurement of isometric tension. The tissues are washed and a force of Ig was applied to each tissue. The rings are precontracted with methacholine (1 μM) and a cumulative (10"9M - 10"5M) isoprenaline concentration effect curve is constructed. Responses are expressed as a percentage relaxation of the methacholine induced contraction. The rings are washed and a second concentration of methacholine (lμM) is added. Once the contraction has reached a plateau isoprenaline or the compound under investigation is added until a maximum effective dose is reached. Data are collected using the AD Instruments chart4forwindows software, which measures the maximum tension generated at each concentration of agonist and the response expressed as percentage relaxation.
Example 6
Inhibition of lipopolysaccharride (LPS)-induced TNFα production in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
Compound A is: N-[2-(Diethylamino)ethyl]-N-(2-{[2-(4-hydroxy-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-l,3- benzothiazol-7-yl)ethyl] amino } ethyl)-3 -[2-(I -naphthyl)ethoxy]propanamide dihydrobromide
Compound B is: 6-fluoro-N-((ls,4s)-4-(6-fluoro-2,4-dioxo-l-(4'-(piperazin-l-ylmethyl)- biphenyl-3-yl)- 1 ,2-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3(4H)-yl)cyclohexyl)imidazo[ 1 ,2- a]pyridine-2-carboxamide trihydrochloride
Compound-induced inhibition of LPS stimulated TNFα production was determined by pre- incubating human isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) with the PDE4 inhibitor Compound B (lOpM - 100 nM) alone and in the presence of the β2 adrenergic agonist Compound A (lOOpM-lμM) for 30 mins at 37°C. The cells were then incubated with LPS (lμg/mL) for 24 hours at 37°C to induce TNFα production. At the end of the incubation period, the plates were centrifuged (300g, 10 minutes) and 50 μL of the culture supernatant was analysed to quantify the TNFα released using a Flourescence-linked immunosorbance assay (FLISA) assay kit (R&D Systems). Fluorescence levels were read on an FMAT plate reader. Inhibition curves were fitted using a 4-parameter logistic equation in a non-linear curve fitting routine and activity was expressed as pICso. Compound B (10OnM) produced a 73 % inhibition of LPS-induced TNFα production. In the presence of 1OnM, 10OnM and lμM Compound A, the maximum inhibition of TNFα production was 75, 87 and 95%, respectively (n=2). The mean data for the combination of the compounds from the two human donors are shown below in Figure 3 and Table 1. Compound A alone inhibited TNFα production by 46% at 1 μM. The mean data for Compound A are shown below in Figure 4.
