Abstract

Disclosed herein are methods for controlling the activity of hypoxia-inducible transcription factor 1-alpha (HIF-1α) and diseases, conditions, or syndromes related thereto, inter alia, Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD), Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), heart failure, ischemia, and anemia. Further disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising HIF-1α prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors useful in treating diseases, conditions, and/or syndromes related thereto the activity of HIF-1α.

Claims (35)

1. A method for increasing the cellular immune response of a subject, comprising administering to a subject an effective amount of one or more HIF-1α prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors having the formula:

wherein Z is phenyl substituted with from 1 to 5 halogens chosen from fluorine and chlorine;

R 4 is C 1 -C 4 linear alkyl or C 3 -C 4 branched alkyl;

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein R 4 is tert-butyl.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein Z is 4-chlorophenyl.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more compounds is tert-butyl 4-{[1-(4-chlorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}-piperazine-1-carboxylate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt chosen from hydrochloride salt, hydrogen sulfate salt, sulfate salt, p-toluenesulfonyl salt, methansulfonyl salt and mixtures thereof.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the subject is diagnosed with a medical condition causing a decreased cellular immunity.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the subject has a medical condition causing a decreased cellular immunity.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the medical condition is cancer.

8. A method for treating a subject with an infection, comprising administering to a subject an effective amount of one or more compounds having the formula:

wherein Z is phenyl substituted with from 1 to 5 halogens chosen from fluorine and chlorine;

R 4 is C 1 -C 4 linear alkyl or C 3 -C 4 branched alkyl;

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein R 4 is tert-butyl.

10. The method according to claim 8 , wherein Z is 4-chlorophenyl.

11. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the compound chosen from:

Methyl 4-{[1-(4-chlorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

Methyl 4-{[1-(3-chlorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

Methyl 4-{[1-(2-chlorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

Ethyl 4-{[1-(4-chlorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

Ethyl 4-{[1-(3-chlorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

Ethyl 4-{[1-(2-chlorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

tert-Butyl 4-{[1-(3-chlorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

tert-Butyl 4-{[1-(2-chlorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

Methyl 4-{[1-(4-fluorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

Methyl 4-{[1-(3-fluorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

Methyl 4-{[1-(2-fluorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

Ethyl 4-{[1-(4-fluorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

Ethyl 4-{[1-(3-fluorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

Ethyl 4-{[1-(2-fluorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

tert-Butyl 4-{[1-(4-fluorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

tert-Butyl 4-{[1-(3-fluorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate;

tert-Butyl 4-{[1-(2-fluorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yl]methyl}piperazine-1-carboxylate.

12. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the infection is caused by a pathogen chosen from bacteria, viruses, yeasts, fungi, or parasites.
