Page/Page column 18-19, (2008/12/05)
The present teachings relate to the field of anti-inflammatory substances and more particularly to compounds that are useful for the treatment of scleritis, a scleritis symptom, or a scleritis-related disorder. In one aspect, methods of treating scleritis, a scleritis symptom, or a scleritis-related disorder generally include administering to a subject a compound of Formula I: or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, hydrate or ester thereof, wherein W1, W2, R1, L, X, Y, Z, and n1 are defined as described herein.

P-selectin-PSGL-1 interaction causes rolling of leukocytes on the endothelial cell surface, which subsequently leads to firm adherence and leukocyte transmigration through the vessel wall into the surrounding tissues. P-selectin is upregulated on the surface of both platelets and endothelium in a variety of atherosclerosis-associated conditions. Consequently, inhibition of this interaction by means of a small molecule P-selectin antagonist is an attractive strategy for the treatment of atherosclerosis. High-throughput screening and subsequent analoging had led to the identification of compound 1 as the lead candidate. Herein, we report the continuation of this work and the discovery of a second-generation series, the tetrahydrobenzoquinoline salicylic acids. These compounds have improved pharmacokinetic properties, and a number of them have shown oral efficacy in mouse and rat models of atherogenesis and vascular injury. The lead 31 (PSI-697), is currently in clinical development for the treatment of atherothrombotic vascular events.
