Definitions

  • This invention relates to pyridine derivatives that inhibit matrix metalloproteinase enzymes and thus are useful for treating diseases resulting from tissue breakdown such as heart disease, multiple sclerosis, osteo- and rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, and osteoporosis.
  • Matrix metalloproteinases (sometimes referred to as MMPs) are naturally occurring enzymes found in most mammals. Over-expression and activation of MMPs or an imbalance between MMPs and inhibitors of MMPs have been suggested as factors in the pathogenesis of diseases characterized by the breakdown of extracellular matrix or connective tissues.
  • Stromelysin-1 and gelatinase A are members of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) family. Other members include fibroblast collagenase (MMP-1), neutrophil collagenase (MMP-8), gelatinase B (92 kDa gelatinase)
  • MMP-9 stromelysin-2
  • MMP-11 stromelysin-3
  • MMP-7 matrilysin
  • MMP-13 TNF-alpha converting enzyme
  • TACE TNF-alpha converting enzyme
  • potent inhibitors such as peptide hydroxamates and thiol-containing peptides.
  • Peptide hydroxamates and the natural endogenous inhibitors of MMPs have been used successfully to treat animal models of cancer and inflammation.
  • MMP inhibitors have also been used to prevent and treat congestive heart failure and other cardiovascular diseases, United States Patent No. 5,948,780.
  • MMP inhibitors A major limitation on the use of currently known MMP inhibitors is their lack of specificity for any particular enzyme. Recent data has established that specific MMP enzymes are associated with some diseases, but have no apparent effect on other diseases. The MMPs are generally categorized based on their substrate specificity; indeed, the collagenase subfamily of MMP-1, MMP-8, and MMP-13 selectively cleave native interstitial collagens, and thus are associated only with diseases linked to such interstitial collagen tissue. This is evidenced by the recent discovery that MMP-13 alone is overexpressed in breast carcinoma, while MMP-1 alone is overexpressed in papillary carcinoma (see Chen et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc, 2000;122:9648-9654).

Description

PYRIDINE MATRIX METALLOPROTEINASE INHIBITORS
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to pyridine derivatives that inhibit matrix metalloproteinase enzymes and thus are useful for treating diseases resulting from tissue breakdown such as heart disease, multiple sclerosis, osteo- and rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, and osteoporosis.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Matrix metalloproteinases (sometimes referred to as MMPs) are naturally occurring enzymes found in most mammals. Over-expression and activation of MMPs or an imbalance between MMPs and inhibitors of MMPs have been suggested as factors in the pathogenesis of diseases characterized by the breakdown of extracellular matrix or connective tissues.
Stromelysin-1 and gelatinase A are members of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) family. Other members include fibroblast collagenase (MMP-1), neutrophil collagenase (MMP-8), gelatinase B (92 kDa gelatinase)
(MMP-9), stromelysin-2 (MMP-10), stromelysin-3 (MMP-11), matrilysin (MMP-7), collagenase 3 (MMP-13); TNF-alpha converting enzyme (TACE), and other newly discovered membrane-associated matrix metalloproteinases (Sato H., Takino T., Okada Y., Cao J., Shinagawa A., Yamamoto E., and Seiki M., Nature, 1994;370:61-65). These enzymes have been implicated with a number of diseases which result from breakdown of connective tissue, including such diseases as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, periodontitis, multiple sclerosis, gingivitis, corneal epidermal and gastric ulceration, atherosclerosis, neointimal proliferation which leads to restenosis and ischemic heart failure, and tumor metastasis. A method for preventing and treating these and other diseases is now recognized to be by inhibiting matrix metalloproteinase enzymes, thereby curtailing and/or eliminating the breakdown of connective tissues that results in the disease states. There is a catalytic zinc domain in matrix metalloproteinases that is typically the focal point for inhibitor design. The modification of substrates by introducing zinc-chelating groups has generated potent inhibitors such as peptide hydroxamates and thiol-containing peptides. Peptide hydroxamates and the natural endogenous inhibitors of MMPs (TIMPs) have been used successfully to treat animal models of cancer and inflammation. MMP inhibitors have also been used to prevent and treat congestive heart failure and other cardiovascular diseases, United States Patent No. 5,948,780.
A major limitation on the use of currently known MMP inhibitors is their lack of specificity for any particular enzyme. Recent data has established that specific MMP enzymes are associated with some diseases, but have no apparent effect on other diseases. The MMPs are generally categorized based on their substrate specificity; indeed, the collagenase subfamily of MMP-1, MMP-8, and MMP-13 selectively cleave native interstitial collagens, and thus are associated only with diseases linked to such interstitial collagen tissue. This is evidenced by the recent discovery that MMP-13 alone is overexpressed in breast carcinoma, while MMP-1 alone is overexpressed in papillary carcinoma (see Chen et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc, 2000;122:9648-9654).
There appears to be few selective inhibitors of MMP-13 reported. A compound named WAY- 170523 has been reported by Chen et al., supra., 2000, and a few other compounds are reported in PCT International Application Publication Number WO 01/63244 Al, as allegedly selective inhibitors of MMP- 13. Further, United States Patent Number 6,008,243 discloses inhibitors of MMP- 13. However, no selective or nonselective inhibitor of MMP-13 has been approved and marketed for the treatment of any disease in any mammal.
Accordingly, the need continues to find new low molecular weight compounds that are potent and selective MMP inhibitors, and that have an acceptable therapeutic index of toxicity/potency to make them amenable for use clinically in the prevention and treatment of the associated disease states. An object of this invention is to provide a group of selective MMP-13 inhibitor compounds characterized as being isophthalic acid derivatives. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The phrase "MMP-13 inhibiting amount" means an amount of invention compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, sufficient to inhibit an enzyme matrix metalloproteinase-13, including a truncated form thereof, including a catalytic domain thereof, in a particular animal or animal population. For example in a human or other mammal, an MMP-13 inhibiting amount can be determined experimentally in a laboratory or clinical setting, or may be the amount required by the guidelines of the United States Food and Drug
Administration, or equivalent foreign agency, for the particular MMP-13 enzyme and patient being treated.
It should be appreciated that the matrix metalloproteinases include the following enzymes: MMP-1, also known as interstitial collagenase, collagenase- 1, or fibroblast-type collagenase; MMP-2, also known as gelatinase A or 72 kDa Type IV collagenase; MMP-3, also known as stromelysin or stromelysin-1; MMP-7, also known as matrilysin or PUMP-1; MMP-8, also known as collagenase-2, neutrophil collagenase, or polymorphonuclear-type ("PMN-type") collagenase; MMP-9, also known as gelatinase B or 92 kDa Type IV collagenase; MMP-10, also known as stromelysin-2; MMP-11, also known as stromelysin-3; MMP-12, also known as metalloelastase;
MMP-13, also known as collagenase-3;
MMP-14, also known as membrane-type ("MT") 1-MMP or MT1-MMP; MMP-15, also known as MT2-MMP; MMP-16, also known as MT3-MMP; MMP-17, also known as MT4-MMP;
MMP-18; and MMP-19. Other MMPs are known, including MMP-26, which is also known as matrilysin-2.
One aspect of the present invention is a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, that is a selective inhibitor of the enzyme MMP-13. A selective inhibitor of MMP-13, as used in the present invention, is a compound that is >5 times more potent in vitro versus MMP-13 than versus at least one other matrix metalloproteinase enzyme such as, for example, MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-7, MMP-8, MMP-9, or MMP-14, or versus tumor necrosis factor alpha convertase ("TACE"). A preferred aspect of the present invention is a compound that is a selective inhibitors of MMP-13 versus MMP-1.
Still other aspects of the present invention are compounds of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, that are selective inhibitors of MMP-13 versus 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 other MMP enzymes, or versus TACE and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 other MMP enzymes. Other aspects of the present invention are compounds of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, that are >10 times,
>20 times, >50 times, >100 times, or ≥IOOO times more potent versus MMP-13 than versus at least one of any other MMP enzyme or TACE.
It should be appreciated that determination of proper dosage forms, dosage amounts, and routes of administration, is within the level of ordinary skill in the pharmaceutical and medical arts, and is described below.
The term "IC50" means the concentration of test compound required to inhibit activity of a biological target, such as a receptor or enzyme, by 50%.
The phrase "catalytic domain" means the domain containing a catalytic zinc cation of the MMP enzyme, wherein the MMP enzyme contains 2 or more domains. A catalytic domain includes truncated forms thereof that retain at least some of the catalytic activity of MMP-13 or MMP-13CD. For example, the collagenases, of which MMP-13 is a member, have been reported to contain a signal peptide domain, a propeptide domain, a catalytic domain, and a hemopexin- like domain (Ye Qi-Zhuang, Hupe D., Johnson L., Current Medicinal Chemistry, 1996;3:407-418).
The phrase "a method for inhibiting MMP-13" includes methods of inhibiting full length MMP-13, truncated forms thereof that retain catalytic activity, including forms that contain the catalytic domain of MMP-13, as well as the catalytic domain of MMP-13 alone, and truncated forms of the catalytic domain of MMP-13 that retain at least some catalytic activity.
It should be appreciated that it has been shown previously (Ye Qi-Zhuang, et al., 1996, supra) that inhibitor activity against a catalytic domain of an MMP is predictive of the inhibitor activity against the respective full-length enzyme.
The compounds to be used in the present invention can exist in unsolvated forms as well as solvated forms, including hydrated forms. In general, the solvated forms, including hydrated forms, are equivalent to unsolvated forms and are intended to be encompassed within the scope of the present invention.
The compounds of Formula I may have chiral centers, and thus can exist as racemic mixtures and individual enantiomers. All such isomeric forms can be used in the method of this invention and are provided as new compounds. The compounds of the invention are capable of further forming both pharmaceutically acceptable formulations comprising salts, including but not limited to acid addition and/or base salts, solvents and N-oxides of a compound of the invention. This invention also provides pharmaceutical formulations comprising a compound of the invention together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, or excipient therefor. All of these forms can be used in the method of the present invention.
Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of the compounds of the invention include salts derived form inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, nitric, phosphoric, sulfuric, hydrobromic, hydriodic, phosphorus, and the like, as well as the salts derived from organic acids, such as aliphatic mono- and dicarboxylic acids, phenyl-substituted alkanoic acids, hydroxy alkanoic acids, alkanedioic acids, aromatic acids, aliphatic and aromatic sulfonic acids, etc. Such salts thus include sulfate, pyrosulfate, bisulfate, sulfite, bisulfite, nitrate, phosphate, monohydrogenphosphate, dihydrogenphosphate, metaphosphate, pyrophosphate, chloride, bromide, iodide, acetate, propionate, caprylate, isobutyrate, oxalate, malonate, succinate, suberate, sebacate, fumarate, maleate, mandelate, benzoate, chlorobenzoate, methylbenzoate, dinitrobenzoate, phthalate, benzenesulfonate, toluenesulfonate, phenylacetate, citrate, lactate, maleate, tartrate, methanesulfonate, and the like. Also contemplated are the salts of amino acids such as arginate, gluconate, galacturonate, and the like; see, for example, Berge et al., "Pharmaceutical Salts," J. of Pharmaceutical Science, 1977;66:1-19.
The acid addition salts of the basic compounds are prepared by contacting the free base form with a sufficient amount of the desired acid to produce the salt in the conventional manner. The free base form may be regenerated by contacting the salt form with a base, and isolating the free base in the conventional manner. The free base forms differ from their respective salt forms somewhat in certain physical properties such as solubility in polar solvents, but otherwise the salts are equivalent to their respective free base for purposes of the present invention. Pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts are formed with metals or amines, such as alkali and alkaline earth metal hydroxides, or of organic amines. Examples of metals used as cations are sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and the like. Examples of suitable amines are N.N'-dibenzylethylenediamine, chloroprocaine, choline, diethanolamine, ethylenediamine, N-methylglucamine, and procaine; see, for example, Berge et al., supra., 1977.
The base addition salts of acidic compounds are prepared by contacting the free acid form with a sufficient amount of the desired base to produce the salt in the conventional manner. The free acid form may be regenerated by contacting the salt form with an acid and isolating the free acid in a conventional manner. The free acid forms differ from their respective salt forms somewhat in certain physical properties such as solubility in polar solvents, but otherwise the salts are equivalent to their respective free acid for purposes of the present invention.
The compounds of the present invention can be formulated and administered in a wide variety of oral and parenteral dosage forms, including transdermal and rectal administration. All that is required is that an MMP inhibitor be administered to a mammal suffering from a disease in an effective amount, which is that amount required to cause an improvement in the disease and/or the symptoms associated with such disease. It will be recognized to those skilled in the art that the following dosage forms may comprise as the active component, either a compound of the invention or a corresponding pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate of a compound of the invention. The invention compounds are prepared by methods well known to those skilled in the art of organic chemistry. The compounds of the invention are prepared utilizing commercially available starting materials, or reactants that are readily prepared by standard organic synthetic techniques. A typical synthesis of the invention compounds of Formula I is shown in Scheme 1 below. The first step in Scheme 1 comprises reacting a diacid with a chlorinating reagent such as thionyl chloride or oxalyl chloride in a nonprotic solvent such as dichloromethane (DCM) to give the diacid chloride. This acid chloride can then be reacted with an amine, NHR4R5, in excess or with an organic base such as triethylamine, to give a bis-amide of Formula I. Alternately, the acid chloride can be reacted with an alcohol, R4OH, in a nonprotic solvent such as dichloromethane along with an organic or inorganic base such as triethylamine or potassium carbonate to give a bis-ester of Formula I. The bis-ester can in some circumstances be reacted with an amine, NHR R5, at elevated temperatures to give a bis-amide of Formula I. The diacid can also be reacted with an alkyl halide in a nonprotic solvent containing an organic or inorganic base to give a bis-ester of Formula I. A third sequence involves the reaction of the diacid with hydroxybenzotriazole, HOBt, and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, DCC, and an amine, NHR4R5, in a solvent such as dimethylformamide, DMF, or dichloromethane to give a bis-amide of Formula I. Compounds of Formula I have also been synthesized using combinatorial techniques, Scheme 2. The diacid chloride is bound to a resin such as Marshall resin to give a bound acid chloride. This is then reacted with an amine, NHR R5, in the presence of triethylamine in a solvent such as DCM to give a resin-bound amide. The resin is then cleaved by reaction with an amine, NHR4R5, in dioxane in the presence of an organic base to give a bis-amide of Formula I, wherein each
R4 and R5 independently are as defined above. Scheme 1

EXAMPLE 14 General procedures to prepare invention compounds in the combinatorial array
Resin Loading Marshall resin (15.2 g, 21.25 mmol) was swollen in dichloromethane
(DCM) (300 mL) in a 500-mL resin tube. This process was slightly exothermic, and caused the DCM to nearly boil. Once the mixture cooled, the tube was capped, and agitated slowly for 5 minutes, with frequent venting. The DCM was then decanted. This wash was repeated two additional times. The resin was then resuspended in DCM (300 mL) and triethylamine (TEA) (3.2 g, 32 mmol, 1.5 eq) was added slowly. The resulting mixture was swirled for 5 minutes, then isophthalic acid dichloride (17.2 g, 85 mmol, 4 eq) was added in one portion. The resin tube was capped and carefully secured in a wrist shaker, and inverted for 36 hours. After 36 hours, a slight darkening of the resin was noted. The reaction solvent was drained and the resin washed three times with DCM (200 mL) and two times with diethyl ether (200 mL). The resin was dried in vacuo for 24 hours. Loading was determined both by weight gain and by total chloride determination. (Nitrogen content showed <0.05% N and therefore the absence of TEA-C1). Typical loading was 1.1 mmol/g.
Resin Distribution
A Miniblock resin loader was calibrated for each resin used in the protocol. The weight in milligram of resin added per well was recorded, and the number of millimoles per well of isophthalic acid dichloride was calculated. Using this calibration and the loading for each resin, 0.15 mmol of resin-bound isophthalic acid dichloride was distributed to each reaction tube. The valve was then closed on the block.
Amine Solution Preparation
An "A" amine set (NHR4R5) was diluted to 0.5 M in DCM. A 0.2-M solution of TEA in DCM (1.5 mL per reaction) was prepared. A 0.2-M solution of TEA in dioxane was also prepared (1.5 mL per reaction). A "B" amine set
(NHR R5) was diluted to 0.5 M in dioxane.
Addition of Amine "A" The TEA solution in DCM (1.5 mL) containing was added to each reaction tube. Next, using the Miniblock Map as a guide, the appropriate "A" amine solution (315 μL, 1.05 eq) was added. The block was shaken for 24 hours, then placed on a filtration station without a collection block and drained. The valve was closed, and 2 mL DCM was added. The block was shaken for 2 minutes, and again drained. The reaction block was stored under vacuum prior to use.
Addition of Amine "B" and Resin Cleavage:
The TEA/dioxane solution (1.5 mL) was added to each reaction tube. Next, using the Miniblock Map as a guide, the appropriate "B" amine solution (300 μL, 1.05 eq) was distributed. The reaction block was shaken for 72 hours, then placed on a filtration station with a labeled collection block, and drained. The valve was closed and 2 mL DCM was added. The reaction block was shaken for 2 minutes, then drained into collection tubes.
Analysis
The products in the tubes may be identified by loop mass spectrometry after first evaporating the DCM from the MS samples.
Concentrate Concentrate the crude samples in the Genevac.

The invention compounds of Formula I have been evaluated in standard assays for their ability to inhibit the catalytic activity of various MMP enzymes. The assays used to evaluate the biological activity of the invention compounds are well known and routinely used by those skilled in the study of MMP inhibitors and their use to treat clinical conditions.
The assays measure the amount by which a test compound reduces the hydrolysis of a thiopeptolide substrate catalyzed by a matrix metalloproteinase enzyme. Such assays are described in detail by Ye et al., in Biochemistry,
1992;31 (45): 11231-11235, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Thiopeptolide substrates show virtually no decomposition or hydrolysis at or below neutral pH in the absence of a matrix metalloproteinase enzyme. A typical thiopeptolide substrate commonly utilized for assays is Ac-Pro-Leu-Gly- thioester-Leu-Leu-Gly-OEt. A 100-μL assay mixture will contain 50 mM of N-2- hydroxyethylpiperazine-N'-2-ethanesulfonic acid buffer ("HEPES") at pH 7.0, 10 mM CaCl2, 100 μM thiopeptolide substrate, and 1 mM 5,5'-dithio-bis-(2-nitro- benzoic acid) (DTNB). The thiopeptolide substrate concentration may be varied from, for example, 10 to 800 μM to obtain Km and Kcat values. The change in absorbance at 405 nm is monitored on a Thermo Max microplate reader
(Molecular Devices, Menlo Park, CA) at room temperature (22°C). The calculation of the amount of hydrolysis of the thiopeptolide substrate is based on E412 = 13600 M"l cm"l for the DTNB-derived product 3-carboxy-
4-nitrothiophenoxide. Assays are carried out with and without matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor compounds, and the amount of hydrolysis is compared for a determination of inhibitory activity of the test compounds.
Representative compounds have been evaluated for their ability to inhibit various matrix metalloproteinase enzymes. The results are summarized in Tables 1 and 2 below. Table 1 below presents inhibitory activity for compounds from various classes. Table 2 summarizes the data for the compounds that were prepared according to the combinatorial protocol described in Example 14. In the tables, MMP-1 refers to full-length interstitial collagenase; MMP-3 refers to the catalytic domain of stromelysin-1; MMP-13 refers to the catalytic domain of collagenase 3. Test compounds were evaluated at various concentrations to determine their respective IC50 values. In Tables 1 and 2, the IC50 values are the nanomolar and micromolar concentrations, respectively, of compound required to cause a 50% inhibition of the hydrolytic activity of the respective enzyme.

The foregoing data establish that the invention compounds of the invention are potent inhibitors of MMP enzymes and are especially useful due to their selective inhibition of MMP-13. Because of this potent and selective inhibitory activity, the invention compounds are especially useful to treat diseases mediated by the MMP enzymes, and particularly those mediated by MMP-13.
Administration of an invention compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to a mammal to treat the diseases mediated by MMP enzymes is preferably, although not necessarily, accomplished by administering the compound, or the salt thereof, in a pharmaceutical dosage form.
The compounds of the present invention can be prepared and administered in a wide variety of oral and parenteral dosage forms. Thus, the compounds of the present invention can be administered by injection, that is, intravenously, intramuscularly, intracutaneously, subcutaneously, intraduodenally, or intraperitoneally. Also, the compounds of the present invention can be administered by inhalation, for example, intranasally. Additionally, the compounds of the present invention can be administered transdermally. It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that the following dosage forms may comprise as the active component, either a compound of Formula I or a corresponding pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound of Formula I. The active compound generally is present in a concentration of about 5% to about 95% by weight of the formulation.
For preparing pharmaceutical compositions from the compounds of the present invention, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers can be either solid or liquid. Solid form preparations include powders, tablets, pills, capsules, cachets, suppositories, and dispersible granules. A solid carrier can be one or more substances that may also act as diluents, flavoring agents, solubilizers, lubricants, suspending agents, binders, preservatives, tablet disintegrating agents, or an encapsulating material.
In powders, the carrier is a finely divided solid that is in a mixture with the finely divided active component. In tablets, the active component is mixed with the carrier having the necessary binding properties in suitable proportions and compacted in the shape and size desired.
The powders and tablets preferably contain from 5% or 10% to about 70% of the active compound. Suitable carriers are magnesium carbonate, magnesium stearate, talc, sugar, lactose, pectin, dextrin, starch, gelatin, tragacanth, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, a low melting wax, cocoa butter, and the like. The term "preparation" is intended to include the formulation of the active compound with encapsulating material as a carrier providing a capsule in which the active component, with or without other carriers, is surrounded by a carrier, which is thus in association with it. Similarly, cachets and lozenges are included. Tablets, powders, capsules, pills, cachets, and lozenges can be used as solid dosage forms suitable for oral administration.
For preparing suppositories, a low melting wax, such as a mixture of fatty acid glycerides or cocoa butter, is first melted and the active component is dispersed homogeneously therein, as by stirring. The molten homogenous mixture is then poured into convenient sized molds, allowed to cool, and thereby to solidify. Liquid form preparations include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions, for example, water or water propylene glycol solutions. For parenteral injection, liquid preparations can be formulated in solution in aqueous polyethylene glycol solution. Aqueous solutions suitable for oral use can be prepared by dissolving the active component in water and adding suitable colorants, flavors, stabilizing, and thickening agents as desired.
Aqueous suspensions suitable for oral use can be made by dispersing the finely divided active component in water with viscous material, such as natural or synthetic gums, resins, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and other well-known suspending agents.
Also included are solid form preparations that are intended to be converted, shortly before use, to liquid form preparations for oral administration. Such liquid forms include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions. These preparations may contain, in addition to the active component, colorants, flavors, stabilizers, buffers, artificial and natural sweeteners, dispersants, thickeners, solubilizing agents, and the like.
The pharmaceutical preparation is preferably in unit dosage form. In such form, the preparation is subdivided into unit doses containing appropriate quantities of the active component. The unit dosage form can be a packaged preparation, the package containing discrete quantities of preparation, such as packeted tablets, capsules, and powders in vials or ampoules. Also, the unit dosage form can be a capsule, tablet, cachet, or lozenge itself, or it can be the appropriate number of any of these in packaged form. The quantity of active component in a unit dose preparation may be varied or adjusted from 1 to 1000 mg, preferably 10 to 100 mg according to the particular application and the potency of the active component. The composition can, if desired, also contain other compatible therapeutic agents.
In therapeutic use as agents to inhibit a matrix metalloproteinase enzyme for the treatment of atherosclerotic plaque rupture, aortic aneurism, heart failure, restenosis, periodontal disease, corneal ulceration, cancer metastasis, tumor angiogenesis, arthritis, or other autoimmune or inflammatory disorders dependent upon breakdown of connective tissue, the compounds utilized in the pharmaceutical method of this invention are administered at a dose that is effective to inhibit the hydrolytic activity of one or more matrix metalloproteinase enzymes. The initial dosage of about 1 mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg daily will be effective. A daily dose range of about 25 mg kg to about 75 mg/kg is preferred. The dosages, however, may be varied depending upon the requirements of the patient, the severity of the condition being treated, and the compound being employed. Determination of the proper dosage for a particular situation is within the skill of the art. Generally, treatment is initiated with smaller dosages that are less than the optimum dose of the compound. Thereafter, the dosage is increased by small increments until the optimum effect under the circumstance is reached.
For convenience, the total daily dosage may be divided and administered in portions during the day if desired. Typical dosages will be from about 0.1 mg kg to about 500 mg/kg, and ideally about 25 mg/kg to about 250 mg kg, such that it will be an amount that is effective to treat the particular disease being prevented or controlled.
