Abstract

Compounds of formula (I) wherein R 3 , R 7 , R 9 and L are defined in the description are TRPV1 antagonists that exhibit low inhibitory activity against CYP3A4. Compositions comprising such compounds and methods for treating conditions and disorders using such compounds and compositions are also disclosed.

Claims (65)

R 9 phenyl is substituted with 2 substituents independently selected from the group consisting of alkoxycarbonylalkyl, alkyl, carboxyalkyl, and hydroxyalkyl.

2. A compound of formula (I)

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or thereof, wherein

L is CH 2 ;

R 3 is methyl (CH 3 );

R 7 is hydrogen; and

R 9 is aryl;

with the proviso that the following compounds are excluded:

N-(1-methyl-1H-indazol-4-yl)-N′-{4-1[(trifluoromethyl)thio]benzyl}urea,

wherein said compound does not inhibit Cytochrome P450 3A4 enzyme (CYP3A4) in vitro and in vivo.

3. A compound of having the general formula (I)

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or thereof, wherein

L is CH 2 ;

R 3 is methyl (CH 3 );

R 7 is hydrogen; and

R 9 is aryl;

with the proviso that the following compounds are excluded:
