Technical Field

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating uveitis, which comprises a compound represented by formula I, an optical isomer thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient, and a therapeutic method using the same and use of the same in the preparation of a medicament for treating uveitis.

Background

The uvea, the intermediate layer inside the outermost layers of the eye (cornea and sclera), consists of the iris, ciliary body and choroid, and the inflammation occurring within it is defined as uveitis. Since the uvea has abundant blood vessels and many connective tissues, it is easily inflamed, wherein various symptoms are presented to the uvea according to various causes and degrees of inflammation. As representative symptoms of uveitis, visual loss, muscae volitantes, pain, bleeding, lacrimation, and blepharitis are known.

Uveitis can be classified into anterior uveitis, intermediate uveitis, posterior uveitis, and panuveitis, depending on the location of its inflammation. In addition, uveitis is also classified into infectious uveitis caused by viruses or germs and non-infectious uveitis caused by abnormalities of the autoimmune system, most of which are caused by immune factors. However, to date, the precise pathogenesis of uveitis has not been disclosed.

Steroids or immunosuppressive agents are employed as representative therapeutic agents for uveitis. However, steroid eye drops often cause serious side effects such as cataract, increased intraocular pressure, increased inflammation, etc., because they are used at such a high dose that the drugs may penetrate into the uveal tissue. In addition, long-term use of oral steroids can cause various side effects such as osteoporosis, osteonecrosis, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis inhibition, increased infection, and abnormalities in metabolism, electrolytes, and digestive system. On the other hand, immunosuppressive agents, which have been used as replacement therapies for steroids, may also cause side effects such as bone marrow suppression, renal function, and liver function impairment. Therefore, although adequate treatment can be achieved using steroids and immunosuppressive agents, it poses many problems to the life of the patient. For example, blindness occurs in 5% to 10% of patients after all. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a therapeutic agent for uveitis that has good penetration into target tissues with less side effects.

Under these circumstances, the present inventors made an effort to develop a therapeutic agent for uveitis, and thus identified that the compound of the present invention can be effectively used for preventing or treating uveitis, and completed the present invention.

The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may be administered as the sole therapeutic agent or in combination with other therapeutic agents, and may also be administered sequentially or simultaneously with conventional therapeutic agents. In view of all of the above, the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention may be administered in an amount that may exhibit the maximum effect achieved at the minimum amount without any side effects, wherein such an amount may be easily determined by those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains.

The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention can exhibit excellent effects even when used alone, but can be further used in combination with various methods such as hormone therapy, drug therapy, and the like in order to improve the therapeutic efficiency.

The present invention also provides a method for treating uveitis, wherein the method comprises administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound represented by formula I above, an optical isomer thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

As used herein, the term "therapeutically effective amount" refers to an amount of a compound represented by formula I above, an optical isomer thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, that is effective in treating uveitis.

Example 1 identification of inhibitory Effect on TNF α secretion in immune cell lines (in vitro)

To identify the efficacy of the compounds of the invention in inhibiting TNF α secretion in an immune response, the inhibition of TNF α production by enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) was quantified by treatment with the compounds 374, 461, 500, 530 and 532 of the invention in an LPS-stimulated human monocyte cell line (THP-1).

Specifically, the THP-1 cell line (ATCC) was cultured in RPMI-1640 medium containing 10% FBS. At 1X 10 per hole5Ratio of cells the cell lines were distributed into 24-well plates and then treated with 100ng/mL PMA (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) for 24 hours followed by differentiation into macrophages. Then, the medium was replaced with a new one, and then treated with the test drug for 24 hours, followed by treatment with 10ng/mL LPS (E.Coli, O55: B5) again for four hours for stimulation. Thereafter, the supernatant was collected and used to determine the amount of TNF α secreted from the cells by a Human TNF α Instant ELISA kit (Human TNF α Instant ELISA kit, eBioscience, BMS223INST) according to the protocol provided by the manufacturer.

The results demonstrate that the level of TNF α secretion, in which an inflammatory response is elicited by LPS, is reduced in all experimental groups compared to the control group. In fig. 1, the compounds denoted as SM374, SM461, SM500, SM530, and SM532 are compounds 374, 461, 500, 530, and 532, respectively. Specifically, in the case of compounds 374, 461 and 500, TNF α secretion levels were significantly reduced to a level that did not elicit an inflammatory response by LPS at both concentrations of 100nM and 300 nM. Furthermore, if compound treatment concentrations were increased from 100nM to 300nM in compounds 530 and 532, TNF α secretion levels were significantly reduced (fig. 1).

The above experimental results demonstrate that the compounds of the present invention are very effective in inhibiting the secretion of TNF α (i.e., inflammatory response factor) which is typically elevated in uveitis, and thus effectively inhibit the inflammatory response induced in uveitis.
