CYCLIC COMPOUNDS CONTAINING ZINC BINDING GROUPS AS MATRIX METALLOPROTEINASE INHIBITORS

This invention provides compounds defined by Formula I Z-L-R1-Q-D-(V1)m-R2 I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein Z, L, R1, Q, D, V1, m, and R2 are as defined in the specification. The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as defined in the specification, together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, or excipient. The invention also provides methods of inhibiting an MMP-13 enzyme in an animal, comprising administering to the animal a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The invention also provides methods of treating a disease mediated by an MMP-13 enzyme in a patient, comprising administering to the patient a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, either alone or in a pharmaceutical composition. The invention also provides methods of treating diseases such as heart disease, multiple sclerosis, osteo- and rheumatoid arthritis, arthritis other than osteo- or rheumatoid arthritis, cardiac insufficiency, inflammatory bowel disease, heart failure, age-related macular degeneration, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, periodontal diseases, psoriasis, atherosclerosis, and osteoporosis in a patient, comprising administering to the patient a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, either alone or in a pharmaceutical composition. The invention also provides combinations, comprising a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, together with another pharmaceutically active component as described in the specification.

Matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors

Compounds are provided that bind allosterically to the catalytic domain of MMP-13 and comprise a hydrophobic group, first and second hydrogen bond acceptors and at least one, and preferably both, of a third hydrogen bond acceptor and a second hydrophobic group. Cartesian coordinates for centroids of the above features are defined in the specification. When the ligand binds to MMP-13, the first, second and third (when present) hydrogen bond acceptors bond respectively with Thr245, Thr 247 and Met 253, the first hydrophobic group locates within the S1' channel of MMP-13 and the second hydrophobic group (when present) is relatively open to solvent. The compounds specifically inhibit the matrix metalloproteinase-13 enzyme and thus are useful for treating diseases resulting from tissue breakdown, such as heart disease, multiple sclerosis, arthritis, atherosclerosis, and osteoporosis.
