The present invention relates to novel macrocyclic compounds, which are myeloperoxidase (MPO) inhibitors and/or eosinophil peroxidase (EPX) inhibitors, compositions containing them, and methods of using them, for example, for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of atherosclerosis, heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and related diseases. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Cardiovascular disease is a major health risk throughout the industrialized world. Atherosclerosis, the most prevalent of cardiovascular diseases, is the principal cause of heart attack and stroke, and thereby the principal cause of death in the United States. Atherosclerosis is a complex disease involving many cell types and molecular factors (for a detailed review, see Weber et al., Nature Med, 17(11):1410-1422 (2011)).

MPO inhibitors have been suggested to reduce the atherosclerotic burden and/or the vulnerability of existing atherosclerotic lesions and thereby decrease the risk of acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina or stroke, and reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury during acute coronary syndrome and ischemic cerebrovascular events. Several lines of data support a role for MPO in atherosclerosis. MPO is expressed in the shoulder regions and necrotic core of human atherosclerotic lesions and active enzyme has been isolated from autopsy specimens of human lesions (Daugherty, A. et al., J. Clin. Invest.,

94(1):437-444 (1994)). Moreover, HOCl-modified lipoproteins have been detected in advanced human atherosclerotic lesions (Hazell, L.J. et al., J. Clin. Invest., 97:1535-1544 (1996)). In eroded and ruptured human lesions, as compared to fatty streaks, an increased number of MPO expressing macrophages have been demonstrated, suggesting a particular role for MPO in acute coronary syndromes (Sugiyama, S. et al., Am. J. Pathol.

158(3):879-891 (2001); Tavora, F.R., BMC Cardiovasc. Disord., 9:27 (Jun.23, 2009)). Data accumulated during the last fifteen years indicate that the pro-atherogenic actions of MPO include oxidation of lipoproteins, induction of endothelial dysfunction via consuming nitric oxide and destabilization of atherosclerotic lesions by activation of proteases (Nicholls, S.J. et al., Arterioscler. Thromb. Vasc. Biol., 25(6):1102-1111 (2005); Nicholls, S.J. et al., JLR, S346-S351 (2009)). Several studies have focused on nitro- and chlorotyrosine modifications of LDL and HDL lipoproteins. Since

chlorotyrosine modifications in vivo are generated by hypochlorous acid produced by MPO these modifications are regarded as specific markers of MPO activity (Hazen, S. et al., J. Clin. Invest., 99(9):2075-2081 (1997)).

ApoA-I isolated from atherosclerotic lesions is modified by reactive chlorine and nitrogen species as well as by reactive carbonyls (Pennathur, S. et al., J. Biol. Chem., 279:42977-42983 (2004); Shao, B. et al., J. Biol. Chem., 279:7856-7866 (2004); Zheng, L. et al., J. Clin. Invest., 114(4):529-541 (2004); Shao, B. et al., JBC in press (2012)). Chlorotyrosine modification of apoA1, the main apolipoprotein of HDL cholesterol, was associated with impaired cholesterol acceptor function (Bergt, C.S. et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 101(35):13032-13037 (2004); Zheng, L. et al., J. Clin. Invest.,

114(4):529-541 (2004)). Thus, oxidation of apoA-I amino acid residues by the

MPO-H ₂ O ₂ -Cl- system is one mechanism for loss of its biological activities.

The lipid and protein content of LDL are also targets for MPO oxidation and presence of chlorotyrosine in LDL extracted from human atherosclerotic tissues has been shown (Hazen, S. et al., J. Clin. Invest., 2075-2081 (1997)). LDL particles exposed to MPO in vitro become aggregated, leading to facilitated uptake via macrophage scavenger receptors and foam cell formation (Hazell, L.J. et al., Biochem. J., 290(Pt.1):165-172 (1993); Podrez, E.A. et al., J. Clin. Invest.105:1095-1108 (2000)). Thus, MPO appears to play a role in the generation of oxidized LDL, which contributes to atherosclerosis plaque development.

Further evidence implicating MPO in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis comes from the study of hMPO transgenic mice crossed with LDL-R KO mice (Castelini L.W. et al., J. Lipid Res., 47:1366-1377 (2006)). These mice expressed MPO in lesions and developed significantly larger aortic lesions than control LDL-R KO mice.

Many clinical studies have implicated MPO in cardiovascular disease in human patients. Patients with established coronary artery disease have higher plasma and leukocyte MPO levels than healthy controls (Zhang, R. et al., JAMA, 286(17):2136-2142 (2001)). Moreover, in three large prospective studies plasma levels of MPO predicted the risk of future coronary events or revascularization (Baldus, S. et al., Circulation, 108(12):1440-1445 (2003); Brennan, M. et al., N. Engl. J. Med., 349(17):1595-1604 (2003); Kohli, P. et al., Circulation, 122:A13175 (2010)). In two recent large nested case control prospective studies, the EPIC-Norfolk and MONICA-/KORA Augsburg studies, baseline MPO levels in these initially healthy populations turned out to be an excellent predictor of future risk of CAD and CHD respectively, showing that this inflammatory marker precedes the presentation of clinical symptoms of CVD (Meuwese, M.C. et al., J. Am. Coll. Cardiol., 50:159-165 (2007); Karakas et al., J. Int. Med., 271:43-50 (2011)). Interestingly, MPO deficient humans are less affected by cardiovascular disease than controls with normal MPO levels (Kutter, D. et al., Acta Haematol., 104:10-15 (2000)). A polymorphism in the MPO promoter affects expression leading to high and low MPO expressing individuals. In three different studies the high expression genotype has been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (Nikpoor, B. et al., Am. Heart J., 142(2):336-339 (2001); Makela, R. et al., Lab. Invest.83(7):919-925 (2003);

Asselbergs, F.W. et al., Am. J. Med., 116(6):429-430 (2004)).

MPO inhibitors are expected to preserve heart function and reduce heart failure burden in patients. In MPO null mice, preservation of left ventricular (LV) function has been observed in both a coronary artery ligation model (Askari, A.T. et al., J. Exp. Med., 197:615-624 (2003)) and an ischemia reperfusion model (Vasilyev, N. et al., Circulation, 112:2812-2820 (2005)), suggesting that MPO may provide a mechanistic link between inflammation, oxidant stress, and impaired cardiac remodeling. High circulating levels of MPO have also been linked to chronic heart failure in patients. Systemic MPO was increased in patients with established chronic systolic HF and correlated with diastolic dysfunction independent of age and plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (Tang, W.H. et al., Am. J. Cardiol., 98:796-799 (2006)). Studies also showed that systemic MPO in subjects with myocardial infarction (MI) (Mocatta, T.J. et al., J. Am. Coll. Cardiol., 49:1993-2000 (2007)) or chronic systolic HF (Tang, W.H. et al., J. Am. Coll. Cardiol., 49:2364-2370 (2007)) may predict long-term adverse clinical events.

Inhibitors of MPO or EPX may be used to treat other neuroinflammatory diseases, including multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, multiple system atrophy, and stroke as well as other inflammatory diseases or conditions like asthma, COPD, cystic fibrosis, inflammatory bowel disease, chronic kidney disease, renal glomerular damage and rheumatoid arthritis.

In these chronic inflammatory diseases, a role of MPO in the development of tissue injury has been suggested. In lesional tissues of patients with Alzheimer's disease, MPO protein was detected along with elevated levels of chlorotyrosine (Green, P.S. et al., J. Neurochem., 90:724-733 (2004)). In an animal model of Parkinson's disease, increased levels of chlorotyrosine and HOCl-modified proteins in brain tissues have been reported (Choi, D.K. et al., J. Neuroscience, 25(28):6394-6600 (2005)). In asthmatic patients the level of bromotyrosine, a molecular fingerprint of eosinophil-catalyzed oxidation was associated with symptom severity (Wedes, S.H. et al., J. Pediatr., 248-255 (2011)). Upon allergen challenge, a model that elicits primarily a strong eosinophilic response, lung segments of asthmatic subjects exhibit a >10 fold increase in bronchioalveolar lavage 3- bromotyrosine an indicator of eosinophil activity vs. a 3-fold increase in 3-chlorotyrosine characteristic of MPO activity (Wu, W. et al., JCI, 105:1455-1463 (2000)). The presence of HOCl-modified protein was also detected in patients with membranous

glomerulonephritis (Grone et al., Lab. Invest., 82:5-14 (2002)). High MPO circulating levels have been implicated in the development of cardiovascular and chronic kidney disease in patients on hemodialysis (Honda, H. et al., Clin. J. Am. Soc., Nephrol., 142-151 (2009). In addition MPO activity and 3-chlorotyrosine levels were also increased during hemodyalisis in patients with end-stage renal disease (Delporte, C et al., Talanta, 99:603- 609 (2012)). Similarly, there is accumulation of neutrophils and eosinophils in conjunction with MPO and EPX seen in intestinal mucosa of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (Kruidenier, L. et al., J. Pathol., 201:17-27 (2003); Carlson, M. et al., Am. J. Gastrol., 94(7):1876-1883 (1999)) and in synovial fluids of rheumatoid arthritis patients (Edwards, S.W. et al., Biochem. J., 250:81-85 (1988); Nucombe, H.L. et al., Ann. Rheum. Dis., 50:237-242 (1991)).

Thus, there is considerable evidence that MPO and/or EPX derived oxidants contribute to tissue injury in chronic inflammatory disorders. MPO and/or EPX inhibitors are anticipated to reduce the levels of oxidants and tissue injury associated with the progression of these diseases. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

When a dotted ring is used within a ring structure, this indicates that the ring structure may be saturated, partially saturated. or unsaturated.

As used herein, the term "amine protecting group" means any group known in the art of organic synthesis for the protection of amine groups which is stable to an ester reducing agent, a disubstituted hydrazine, R4-M and R7-M, a nucleophile, a hydrazine reducing agent, an activator, a strong base, a hindered amine base and a cyclizing agent. Such amine protecting groups fitting these criteria include those listed in Greene, T.W. et al., Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, 4th Edition, Wiley (2007) and The Peptides: Analysis, Synthesis, Biology, Vol.3, Academic Press, New York (1981), the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. Examples of amine protecting groups include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) acyl types such as formyl, trifluoroacetyl, phthalyl, and p-toluenesulfonyl; (2) aromatic carbamate types such as benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz) and substituted benzyloxycarbonyls, 1-(p-biphenyl)-1-methylethoxycarbonyl, and 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc); (3) aliphatic carbamate types such as tert- butyloxycarbonyl (Boc), ethoxycarbonyl, diisopropylmethoxycarbonyl, and

allyloxycarbonyl; (4) cyclic alkyl carbamate types such as cyclopentyloxycarbonyl and adamantyloxycarbonyl; (5) alkyl types such as triphenylmethyl and benzyl; (6) trialkylsilane such as trimethylsilane; (7) thiol containing types such as

phenylthiocarbonyl and dithiasuccinoyl; and (8) alkyl types such as triphenylmethyl, methyl, and benzyl; and substituted alkyl types such as 2,2,2-trichloroethyl,

2-phenylethyl, and t-butyl; and trialkylsilane types such as trimethylsilane.

As referred to herein, the term "substituted" means that at least one hydrogen atom is replaced with a non-hydrogen group, provided that normal valencies are maintained and that the substitution results in a stable compound. When a substituent is keto (i.e., =O), then 2 hydrogens on the atom are replaced. Keto substituents are not present on aromatic moieties. When a ring system (e.g., carbocyclic or heterocyclic) is said to be substituted with a carbonyl group or a double bond, it is intended that the carbonyl group or double bond be part (i.e., within) of the ring. Ring double bonds, as used herein, are double bonds that are formed between two adjacent ring atoms (e.g., C=C, C=N, or N=N). In cases wherein there are nitrogen atoms (e.g., amines) on compounds of the present invention, these may be converted to N-oxides by treatment with an oxidizing agent (e.g., mCPBA and/or hydrogen peroxides) to afford other compounds of this invention. Thus, shown and claimed nitrogen atoms are considered to cover both the shown nitrogen and its N-oxide (N→O) derivative.

When any variable occurs more than one time in any constituent or formula for a compound, its definition at each occurrence is independent of its definition at every other occurrence. Thus, for example, if a group is shown to be substituted with 0-3 R groups, then said group may optionally be substituted with up to three R groups, and at each occurrence R is selected independently from the definition of R.

When a bond to a substituent is shown to cross a bond connecting two atoms in a ring, then such substituent may be bonded to any atom on the ring. When a substituent is listed without indicating the atom in which such substituent is bonded to the rest of the compound of a given formula, then such substituent may be bonded via any atom in such substituent.

Combinations of substituents and/or variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds.

As a person of ordinary skill in the art would be able to understand, a ketone (-CH-C=O) group in a molecule may tautomerize to its enol form (-C=C-OH). Thus, this disclosure is intended to cover all possible tautomers even when a structure depicts only one of them.

The phrase "pharmaceutically acceptable" is employed herein to refer to those compounds, materials, compositions, and/or dosage forms that are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human beings and animals without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, and/or other problem or complication, commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio.

As used herein, "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" refer to derivatives of the disclosed compounds wherein the parent compound is modified by making acid or base salts thereof. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, mineral or organic acid salts of basic groups such as amines; and alkali or organic salts of acidic groups such as carboxylic acids. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts include the conventional non-toxic salts or the quaternary ammonium salts of the parent compound formed, for example, from non-toxic inorganic or organic acids. For example, such conventional non-toxic salts include those derived from inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, sulfamic, phosphoric, and nitric; and the salts prepared from organic acids such as acetic, propionic, succinic, glycolic, stearic, lactic, malic, tartaric, citric, ascorbic, pamoic, maleic, hydroxymaleic, phenylacetic, glutamic, benzoic, salicylic, sulfanilic, 2-acetoxybenzoic, fumaric, toluenesulfonic,

methanesulfonic, ethane disulfonic, oxalic, and isethionic.

The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the present invention can be synthesized from the parent compound that contains a basic or acidic moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acid or base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or in an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two; generally, nonaqueous media like ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile are preferred. Lists of suitable salts are found in Allen, L.V., Jr., ed., Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 22nd Edition, Pharmaceutical Press, London, UK (2012), the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.

In addition, compounds of the present invention may have prodrug forms. Any compound that will be converted in vivo to provide the bioactive agent (i.e., a compound of Formula (I) or Formula (II)) is a prodrug within the scope and spirit of the invention. Various forms of prodrugs are well known in the art. For examples of such prodrug derivatives, see:

Compounds containing a carboxy group can form physiologically hydrolyzable esters that serve as prodrugs by being hydrolyzed in the body to yield Formula (I) or Formula (II) compounds per se. Such prodrugs are preferably administered orally since hydrolysis in many instances occurs principally under the influence of the digestive enzymes. Parenteral administration may be used where the ester per se is active, or in those instances where hydrolysis occurs in the blood. Examples of physiologically hydrolyzable esters of compounds of Formula (I) or Formula (II) include C ₁ to C ₆ alkyl, C ₁ to C ₆ alkylbenzyl, 4-methoxybenzyl, indanyl, phthalyl, methoxymethyl,

C _1-6 alkanoyloxy-C _1-6 alkyl (e.g., acetoxymethyl, pivaloyloxymethyl or

propionyloxymethyl), C ₁ to C ₆ alkoxycarbonyloxy-C ₁ to C ₆ alkyl (e.g.,

methoxycarbonyl-oxymethyl or ethoxycarbonyloxymethyl, glycyloxymethyl, phenylglycyloxymethyl, (5-methyl-2-oxo-1,3-dioxolen-4-yl)-methyl), and other well known physiologically hydrolyzable esters used, for example, in the penicillin and cephalosporin arts. Such esters may be prepared by conventional techniques known in the art.

Preparation of prodrugs is well known in the art and described in, for example, King, F.D., ed., Medicinal Chemistry: Principles and Practice, The Royal Society of Chemistry, Cambridge, UK (2nd Edition, reproduced, 2006); Testa, B. et al., Hydrolysis in Drug and Prodrug Metabolism.

The compounds of the present invention can be prepared in a number of ways known to one skilled in the art of organic synthesis. The compounds of the present invention can be synthesized using the methods described below, together with synthetic methods known in the art of synthetic organic chemistry, or by variations thereon as appreciated by those skilled in the art. Preferred methods include, but are not limited to, those described below. The reactions are performed in a solvent or solvent mixture appropriate to the reagents and materials employed and suitable for the transformations being effected. It will be understood by those skilled in the art of organic synthesis that the functionality present on the molecule should be consistent with the transformations proposed. This will sometimes require a judgment to modify the order of the synthetic steps or to select one particular process scheme over another in order to obtain a desired compound of the invention.

A particularly useful compendium of synthetic methods which may be applicable to the preparation of compounds of the present invention may be found in Larock, R.C., Comprehensive Organic Transformations, VCH Publishers, Inc., New York, NY (1999). Preferred methods include, but are not limited to, those described below. All references cited herein are hereby incorporated in their entirety herein by reference.

It will also be recognized that another major consideration in the planning of any synthetic route in this field is the judicious choice of the protecting group used for protection of the reactive functional groups present in the compounds described in this invention. An authoritative account describing the many alternatives to the trained practitioner is Greene, T.W. et al., Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, 4th Edition, Wiley (2007)). Compounds having the general Formula (I):

wherein A, X1, D, X2, E and X3 are defined above, can be prepared by the following one or more of the synthetic schemes outlined below.

Macrocyclic compounds of this invention can be prepared by cyclization of a suitably functionalized acyclic precursor under appropriately dilute reaction conditions to minimize intermolecular reaction. Examples of such cyclizations are intramolecular Ullmann reaction between a phenol or aliphatic alcohol and an aryl iodide or bromide (for examples, see Uchiro, H.et al. Org. Lett.2011, 13, 6268 or Collins, J. C. et al. J. Org. Chem.2012, 77, 11079.), intramolecular Mitsunobu condensation of a phenol with a benzylic or primary or secondary alcohol (for examples, see Chen, K. X. et al. J. Med. Chem.2005, 49, 567) or intramolecular Suzuki-Miyaura reaction of a boronic acid or boronate with a suitable coupling partner such as an aryl or vinyl iodide or bromide (for example, see Dieckmann, M.; et al., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.2012, 51, 5667–5670).

Other macrocyclization methods include macrolactamizations, macrolactonization and intramolecular olefin metathesis (for examples, see Yu, X. and Sun, D. Molecules 2013, 18, 6230).

Compounds of this invention wherein D and E are phenyl and X ₂ is O can be prepared by intramolecular Ullmann condensation from a suitably protected precursor 1-1 as shown in Scheme 1. Typical reagents and conditions for this cyclization are CuI, a base such as cesium carbonate, and a ligand such as 9,10-phenanthroline in a suitable solvent such as toluene at a temperature of 110-150°C at a concentration of 3-5 mM in a sealed flask. Deprotection of the N-protecting groups with TFA or TFA/triethylsilane in DCM provides the desired macrocycles 1-2. Scheme 1

Alternately, compounds of this invention wherein D is phenyl and X2 is O(CH2)n, can be prepared by intramolecular Mitsunobu reaction of suitably protected precursors 2- 1 as shown in Scheme 2. For primary alcohol intermediates, the cyclization can be carried out using DIAD and triphenylphosphine in THF at a concentration of 1-3 mM and a temperature from 0 °C to room temperature. For secondary alcohols (e.g.when E is a saturated carbocycle and n =0), a mixure of DIAD, triphenylphosphine and triethylamine can be used, or for more sterically hindered secondary alcohols, a solution of CMBP in toluene at 100 °C provides the macrocyclic products. Deprotection of the N-protecting groups with TFA or TFA/triethylsilane in DCM provides the desired macrocycles 2-2. Scheme 2

Alternately, as shown in Scheme 3, macrocycles of this invention can be prepared from suitably protected and functionalized intermediates 3-1 via an intramolecular Suzuki- Miyaura condensation, followed by deprotection and reduction of the double bond. An effective catalyst for this cyclization is Pd(dppf)Cl ₂ in the presence of a base such as K2CO3 or Ba(OH)2 in a solvent such as aq. Dioxane or DMF at temperatures from room temperature to 85°C and concentrations from 1-10 mM. Deprotection of the N-protecting groups with TFA or TFA/triethylsilane in DCM, followed by hydrogenation over PtO2 to reduce the double bond, provides the desired macrocycles 3-2.

Compounds of this invention can further be prepared as outlined in Schemes 4-8 below and as described in detail in the specific examples that follow. It should be noted that all bis-tritylated triazolopyridine intermediates were obtained as mixtures of two trityl regioisomers which were carried through without separation.

Myeloperoxidase (MPO) and eosinophil peroxidase (EPX) are heme-containing enzymes and are members of the family of mammalian heme peroxidases that also includes salivary peroxidase, lactoperoxidase (LPO), thyroid peroxidase (TPO), prostaglandin H synthase and others. Both MPO and EPX use hydrogen peroxide to oxidize an array of substrates to either hypohalous acids or free radicals. Whereas both EPX and MPO are able to oxidize bromine (Br-), iodine (I-) and thiocyanate (-SCN), MPO is also able to oxidize chloride (C1-) to hypochlorous acid (HOCl) efficiently.

MPO is present predominantly in neutrophils and to a lesser extent in monocytes and subtypes of tissue macrophages. The processed mature form of the enzyme is a glycosylated 146kDa homodimer. Each subunit is made of a light and heavy polypeptide chain and contains a protoporphyrin IX group with a central iron. The three-fold linkage of the heme is unique compared to other heme proteins and provides specific spectral and catalytic properties to MPO. MPO uses hydrogen peroxide to oxidize an array of substrates to either hypohalous acids or free radicals. The main substrate for MPO is generally accepted to be chloride, which is oxidized to hypochlorous acid. This is one of the most reactive oxidants produced in vivo. Other substrates include thiocyanate, bromide, tyrosine, tryptophan, sulfhydryls, phenol and indole derivatives, ascorbate, nitrite, nitric oxide, and urate.

The physiological role of MPO is to participate in the killing of invading bacterial and fungal pathogens (Klebanoff, S.J., J. Exp Med., 126:1063-1078 (1967); Klebanoff, S.J., J. Bacteriol., 95:2131-2138 (1968); Klebanoff, S.J., Science, 169:1095-1097 (1970)). However, excessive generation of oxidants by MPO and other peroxidases has been linked to tissue damage in many diseases, especially those characterized by acute or chronic inflammation. At sites of inflammation, PMNs or tissue macrophages can generate hydrogen peroxide and upon activation also produce myeloperoxidase. This is evidenced by the fact that, in many cases, enzymatically active MPO in conjunction with 3-chlorotyrosine, a tissue marker for HOCl-mediated damage, or HOCl-modified proteins can be detected in diseased tissues colocalized with neutrophils or macrophages

(Daugherty, A. et al., JCI, 94:437-444 (1994); Bergt et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., 101:13032-13037 (2004); Pennathur, S. et al., JBC, 279:42977-42983 (2004); Choi D.K. et al., J. Neurosci., 25(28):6394-6600 (2005)).

Eosinophil peroxidase (EPX) is a cationic heme-containing protein, and represents nearly 25% of the total mass of the secondary granule protein in eosinophils. It is a highly basic 77kDa protein made up of two subunits containing a modified Fe-protoporphyrin- IX prosthetic group. EPX shares with MPO the ability to use H ₂ O ₂ to oxidize thiocyanate, bromide, and nitrite in vivo to kill bacteria, and viruses (Jong, E.C. et al., J. Immunol., 124:1949-1953 (1980)). Eosinophils play a unique role in host defense mechanisms but increased levels of circulating and tissue eosinophils are implicated in promoting cellular and tissue injury in particular in asthma, and during allergic inflammatory responses of lung diseases. MPO Peroxidation Assay (Amplex Red Assay)

MPO peroxidation activity was measured in 100 mM KPi (pH 7.4) by utilizing the non-fluorescent reagent Amplex Red (Invitrogen Cat. #A12222) which can be oxidized to the highly fluorescent resorufin. Amplex Red is oxidized by the peroxidase action of MPO to resorufin. Reactions were carried out in 50 µL total volume by adding a 25 µL mixture of 200 pM myeloperoxidase and 40 nM H ₂ O ₂ (Sigma #349887) to 100 nL inhibitor in 100% DMSO in a 384 well Perkin Elmer Optiplate. Enzyme and compound were preincubated for ten minutes at room temperature.

After the ten minute preincubation, 25 µL of an Amplex Red mixture containing 200 µM Amplex Red and 10mM H ₂ O ₂ was added to the plate. Kinetic determinations were carried out immediately on a Perkin Elmer Envision (15 minute kinetic read, Ex: 535 nm, Em: 590 nm). IC ₅₀ values were calculated by determining the slope of the linear portion of the kinetic trace (180-540 secs), and using that calculated slope to determine % inhibition occurring at each concentration of inhibitor using the following equation:

where A = minimal Y value (activity level of inhibited sample), B = maximal Y value (activity level of uninhibited sample), C = LogIC ₅₀ , D = Hill Slope, x = concentration of inhibitor. MPO Chlorination Assay (APF Assay)

MPO chlorination activity was measured in 100 mM KPi (pH 7.4) by utilizing the non-fluorescent reagent Aminophenyl fluorescein (APF, Invitrogen Cat. #A36003). APF is cleaved by (-OCl) to yield the fluorescent compound fluorescein. Reactions were carried out in 50 µL total volume by adding a 25 µL mixture of 200 pM myeloperoxidase and 120 mM NaCl to 100 nL inhibitor in 100% DMSO in a 384 well, non-binding surface clear bottom plate (Corning #3655). Enzyme, inhibitor, and chloride were preincubated for ten minutes at room temperature.

After the ten minute preincubation, 25 µL of an APF mixture containing 10 mM APF, 120 mM NaCl and 10 µM H ₂ O ₂ was added to the plate using the internal dispensing system of a Hammatsu FDSS 6000. Kinetic determinations were carried out immediately on the FDSS 6000 (3 minute kinetic read, 1 read every second, ex: 485 nm, em: 535 nm). IC ₅₀ values for inhibitors were calculated by taking the slope of the linear portion of the kinetic measurement (20 seconds to ~80-120 secs).

IC ₅₀ values were calculated by determining the slope of the linear portion of the kinetic trace (180-540 secs), and using that calculated slope to determine % inhibition occurring at each concentration of inhibitor using the following equation:

where A = minimal Y value (activity level of inhibited sample), B = maximal Y value (activity level of uninhibited sample), C = LogIC ₅₀ , D = Hill Slope, x = concentration of inhibitor. EPX Bromination Assay

EPX bromination activity was measured in 100 mM KPi (pH 7.4) by monitoring the H ₂ O ₂ catalyzed formation of 3-bromo tyrosine from tyrosine and potassium bromide. A 50 μl mixture of 0.6 μM EPX (Lee Biosolutions Cat. #342-60) was added to 100 nL inhibitor in 100% DMSO in a 384 well REMP plate. Enzyme and compound were preincubated for ten minutes at room temperature.

After the ten minute preincubation of enzyme and inhibitor, 25 μL of a mixture containing 400 μM tyrosine and 1200 μM potassium bromide was added to the plate containing enzyme and inhibitor, followed by the addition of 25 μl of 20 μM H ₂ O ₂ . The reaction was allowed to proceed for 15 minutes, at which time it was quenched with 10 μL of 20% TCA. The final concentrations of all components were 0.3 μM EPX, 100 μM tyrosine, 400 μM potassium bromide, 5 μM H ₂ O ₂ , 0.1% DMSO, 2.0% TCA.

IC ₅₀ values were determined by determining the peak areas of 3-bromo-tyrosine present at the end of the 15 minute reaction and fitting the data to:

where A = minimal Y value (activity level of inhibited sample), B = maximal Y value (activity level of uninhibited sample), C = LogIC ₅₀ , D = Hill Slope, x = concentration of inhibitor.

V. PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS, FORMULATIONS AND

COMBINATIONS

The compounds of this invention can be administered for any of the uses described herein by any suitable means, for example, orally, such as tablets, capsules (each of which includes sustained release or timed release formulations), pills, powders, granules, elixirs, tinctures, suspensions (including nanosuspensions, microsuspensions, spray-dried dispersions), syrups, and emulsions; sublingually; bucally; parenterally, such as by subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, or intrasternal injection, or infusion techniques (e.g., as sterile injectable aqueous or non-aqueous solutions or suspensions); nasally, including administration to the nasal membranes, such as by inhalation spray; topically, such as in the form of a cream or ointment; or rectally such as in the form of suppositories. They can be administered alone, but generally will be administered with a pharmaceutical carrier selected on the basis of the chosen route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice.

The term "pharmaceutical composition" means a composition comprising a compound of the invention in combination with at least one additional pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. A "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" refers to media generally accepted in the art for the delivery of biologically active agents to animals, in particular, mammals, including, i.e., adjuvant, excipient or vehicle, such as diluents, preserving agents, fillers, flow regulating agents, disintegrating agents, wetting agents, emulsifying agents, suspending agents, sweetening agents, flavoring agents, perfuming agents, anti- bacterial agents, anti-fungal agents, lubricating agents and dispensing agents, depending on the nature of the mode of administration and dosage forms.

Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are formulated according to a number of factors well within the purview of those of ordinary skill in the art. These include, without limitation: the type and nature of the active agent being formulated; the subject to which the agent-containing composition is to be administered; the intended route of

administration of the composition; and the therapeutic indication being targeted. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include both aqueous and non-aqueous liquid media, as well as a variety of solid and semi-solid dosage forms. Such carriers can include a number of different ingredients and additives in addition to the active agent, such additional ingredients being included in the formulation for a variety of reasons, e.g., stabilization of the active agent, binders, etc., well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. Descriptions of suitable pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, and factors involved in their selection, are found in a variety of readily available sources such as, for example, Allen, L.V., Jr. et al., Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy (2 Volumes), 22nd Edition, Pharmaceutical Press (2012).

The dosage regimen for the compounds of the present invention will, of course, vary depending upon known factors, such as the pharmacodynamic characteristics of the particular agent and its mode and route of administration; the species, age, sex, health, medical condition, and weight of the recipient; the nature and extent of the symptoms; the kind of concurrent treatment; the frequency of treatment; the route of administration, the renal and hepatic function of the patient, and the effect desired.

By way of general guidance, the daily oral dosage of each active ingredient, when used for the indicated effects, will range between about 0.01 to about 5000 mg per day, preferably between about 0.1 to about 1000 mg per day, and most preferably between about 0.1 to about 250 mg per day. Intravenously, the most preferred doses will range from about 0.01 to about 10 mg/kg/minute during a constant rate infusion. Compounds of this invention may be administered in a single daily dose, or the total daily dosage may be administered in divided doses of two, three, or four times daily.

The compounds are typically administered in admixture with suitable

pharmaceutical diluents, excipients, or carriers (collectively referred to herein as pharmaceutical carriers) suitably selected with respect to the intended form of administration, e.g., oral tablets, capsules, elixirs, and syrups, and consistent with conventional pharmaceutical practices.

Dosage forms (pharmaceutical compositions) suitable for administration may contain from about 1 milligram to about 2000 milligrams of active ingredient per dosage unit. In these pharmaceutical compositions the active ingredient will ordinarily be present in an amount of about 0.1-95% by weight based on the total weight of the composition. A typical capsule for oral administration contains at least one of the compounds of the present invention (250 mg), lactose (75 mg), and magnesium stearate (15 mg). The mixture is passed through a 60 mesh sieve and packed into a No.1 gelatin capsule.

A typical injectable preparation is produced by aseptically placing at least one of the compounds of the present invention (250 mg) into a vial, aseptically freeze-drying and sealing. For use, the contents of the vial are mixed with 2 mL of physiological saline, to produce an injectable preparation.

The present invention includes within its scope pharmaceutical compositions comprising, as an active ingredient, a therapeutically effective amount of at least one of the compounds of the present invention, alone or in combination with a pharmaceutical carrier. Optionally, compounds of the present invention can be used alone, in combination with other compounds of the invention, or in combination with one or more, preferably one to three, other therapeutic agent(s), e.g., HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors,

Examples of suitable HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors include, but are not limited to, lovastatin, simvastatin, pravastatin, fluvastatin, atorvastatin, and rosuvastatin.

The term HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor is intended to include all

pharmaceutically acceptable salt, ester, free acid and lactone forms of compounds which have HMG-CoA reductase inhibitory activity and, therefore, the use of such salts, esters, free acids and lactone forms is included within the scope of this invention. Compounds which have inhibitory activity for HMG-CoA reductase can be readily identified using assays well-known in the art.

The compounds of the invention may be used in combination with one or more, preferably one to three, of the following anti-diabetic agents depending on the desired target therapy. Studies indicate that diabetes and hyperlipidemia modulation can be further improved by the addition of a second agent to the therapeutic regimen. Examples of anti-diabetic agents include, but are not limited to, sulfonylureas (such as

chlorpropamide, tolbutamide, acetohexamide, tolazamide, glyburide, gliclazide, glynase, glimepiride, and glipizide), biguanides (such as metformin), thiazolidinediones (such as ciglitazone, pioglitazone, troglitazone, and rosiglitazone), and related insulin sensitizers, such as selective and non-selective activators of PPARα, PPARβ and PPARγ;

dehydroepiandrosterone (also referred to as DHEA or its conjugated sulphate ester, DHEA-SO ₄ ); anti-glucocorticoids; TNFα inhibitors; dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4) inhibitor (such as sitagliptin, saxagliptin),GLP-1 agonists or analogs (such as exenatide), α-glucosidase inhibitors (such as acarbose, miglitol, and voglibose), pramlintide (a synthetic analog of the human hormone amylin), other insulin secretagogues (such as repaglinide, gliquidone, and nateglinide), insulin, as well as the therapeutic agents discussed above for treating atherosclerosis. The compounds of the invention may be used in combination with one or more, preferably one to three, of the following anti-obesity agents selected from

phenylpropanolamine, phentermine, diethylpropion, mazindol, fenfluramine,

dexfenfluramine, phentiramine, β ₃ -adrenoreceptor agonist agents; sibutramine, gastrointestinal lipase inhibitors (such as orlistat), and leptins. Other agents used in treating obesity or obesity-related disorders include neuropeptide Y, enterostatin, cholecytokinin, bombesin, amylin, histamine H ₃ receptors, dopamine D ₂ receptor modulators, melanocyte stimulating hormone, corticotrophin releasing factor, galanin and gamma amino butyric acid (GABA).

The above other therapeutic agents, when employed in combination with the compounds of the present invention may be used, for example, in those amounts indicated in the Physicians' Desk Reference, as in the patents set out above, or as otherwise determined by one of ordinary skill in the art.

Particularly when provided as a single dosage unit, the potential exists for a chemical interaction between the combined active ingredients. For this reason, when the compound of the present invention and a second therapeutic agent are combined in a single dosage unit they are formulated such that although the active ingredients are combined in a single dosage unit, the physical contact between the active ingredients is minimized (that is, reduced). For example, one active ingredient may be enteric coated. By enteric coating one of the active ingredients, it is possible not only to minimize the contact between the combined active ingredients, but also, it is possible to control the release of one of these components in the gastrointestinal tract such that one of these components is not released in the stomach but rather is released in the intestines. One of the active ingredients may also be coated with a material that affects a sustained-release throughout the gastrointestinal tract and also serves to minimize physical contact between the combined active ingredients. Furthermore, the sustained-released component can be additionally enteric coated such that the release of this component occurs only in the intestine. Still another approach would involve the formulation of a combination product in which the one component is coated with a sustained and/or enteric release polymer, and the other component is also coated with a polymer such as a low viscosity grade of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) or other appropriate materials as known in the art, in order to further separate the active components. The polymer coating serves to form an additional barrier to interaction with the other component.

These as well as other ways of minimizing contact between the components of combination products of the present invention, whether administered in a single dosage form or administered in separate forms but at the same time by the same manner, will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, once armed with the present disclosure.

The compounds of the present invention can be administered alone or in combination with one or more, preferably one to three, additional therapeutic agents. By "administered in combination" or "combination therapy" it is meant that the compound of the present invention and one or more, preferably one to three, additional therapeutic agents are administered concurrently to the mammal being treated. When administered in combination, each component may be administered at the same time or sequentially in any order at different points in time. Thus, each component may be administered separately but sufficiently closely in time so as to provide the desired therapeutic effect.

The compounds of the present invention are also useful as standard or reference compounds, for example as a quality standard or control, in tests or assays involving the myeloperoxidase. Such compounds may be provided in a commercial kit, for example, for use in pharmaceutical research involving myeloperoxidase activity. For example, a compound of the present invention could be used as a reference in an assay to compare its known activity to a compound with an unknown activity. This would ensure the experimenter that the assay was being performed properly and provide a basis for comparison, especially if the test compound was a derivative of the reference compound. When developing new assays or protocols, compounds according to the present invention could be used to test their effectiveness. The compounds of the present invention may also be used in diagnostic assays involving myeloperoxidase.
