Compounds that inhibit TRPV1 and uses thereof
View Patent ↗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.
1. A method for treating pain in a mammal in need of such treatment, comprising administering to the mammal a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I):
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein:
L is CH 2 ;
R 3 is methyl (CH 3 );
R 7 is hydrogen; and
R 9 is phenyl substituted with 2 substituents independently selected from the group consisting of alkoxycarbonylalkyl, alkyl, haloalkyl, carboxyalkyl, and hydroxyalkyl.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the compound is 1-(2-(3,3-dimethylbutyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)-3-(1-methyl-1H-indazol-4-yl)urea or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the compound does not inhibit Cytochrome P450 3A4 enzyme (CYP3A4) in vitro and in vivo.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein said pain is one of neuropathic pain, inflammatory pain, chronic pain, nociceptive pain, rheumatoid arthritic pain, osteoarthritic pain, back pain, visceral pain, cancer pain, dental pain, pelvic pain, or menstrual pain.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein said compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is part of a pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
6. The method of claim 1 further comprising the step of co-administering said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof with one or more nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug is selected from the group consisting of acetaminophen and ibuprofen, or a combination thereof.
8. A method of treating thermal hyperalgesia, bladder overactivity or urinary incontinence, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I):
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein:
L is CH 2 ;
R 3 is methyl (CH 3 );
R 7 is hydrogen; and
R 9 is phenyl substituted with 2 substituents independently selected from the group consisting of alkoxycarbonylalkyl, alkyl, haloalkyl, carboxyalkyl, and hydroxyalkyl.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein said compound is 1-(2-(3,3-dimethylbutyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)-3-(1-methyl-1H-indazol-4-yl)urea or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
10. A method of treating acute cerebral ischemia, allodynia, post herpetic neuralgia, neuropathies, neuralgia, diabetic neuropathy, HIV-related neuropathy, nerve injury, burns, headache, migraine, carpal tunnel syndrome, fibromyalgia, neuritis, sciatica, pelvic hypersensitivity, bladder disease, micturition disorder, renal colic, inflammation, neurodegenerative disease, pulmonary disease, gastrointestinal disease, ischemia, or emesis, said method comprising the step of administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I):
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein:
L is CH 2 ;
R 3 is methyl (CH 3 );
R 7 is hydrogen; and
R 9 is phenyl substituted with 2 substituents independently selected from the group consisting of alkoxycarbonylalkyl, alkyl, haloalkyl, carboxyalkyl, and hydroxyalkyl.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the compound is 1-(2-(3,3-dimethylbutyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl) benzyl)-3-(1-methyl-1H-indazol-4-yl)urea.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the compound does not inhibit Cytochrome P450 3A4 enzyme (CYP3A4) in vitro and in vivo.
13. The method of claim 10 , wherein said compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is part of a pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
14. The method of claim 10 further comprising the step of co-administering said compound with one or more nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug is selected from the group consisting of acetaminophen and ibuprofen, or a combination thereof.
