ABSTRACT:
This is a 371 of PCT/JP98/02885, filed Jun. 26, 1998.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to novel benzimidazole derivatives, and, more precisely, to novel benzimidazole derivatives and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts having blood sugar level-depressing activity or PDE5-inhibiting activity. The present invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising, as an active ingredient, such benzimidazole derivatives or their salts.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
The subject matter of the present invention is to provide novel benzimidazole derivatives and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and also pharmaceutical compositions which comprise, as an active ingredient, such benzimidazole derivatives or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and which are useful for preventing and treating impaired glucose tolerance, diabetes (type II diabetes), diabetic complications (e.g., diabetic gangrene, diabetic arthropathy, diabetic osteopenia, diabetic glomerulosclerosis, diabetic nephropathy, diabetic dermatopathy, diabetic neuropathy, diabetic cataract, diabetic retinopathy, etc.), syndrome of insulin resistance (e.g., insulin receptor disorders, Rabson-Mendenhall syndrome, leprechaunism, Kobberling-Dunnigan syndrome, Seip syndrome, Lawrence syndrome, Cushing syndrome, acromegaly, etc.), polycystic ovary syndrome, hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disorders (e.g., stenocardia, cardiac failure, etc.), hyperglycemia (e.g., abnormal saccharometabolism such as feeding disorders, etc.), hypertension, stenocardia, pulmonary hypertension, congestive heart failure, glomerulopathy (e.g., diabetic glomerulosclerosis, etc.), tubulointerstitial disorders (e.g., renopathy induced by FK506, cyclosporin, etc.), renal failure, atherosclerosis aiiostenosis (e.g., after percutaneous arterioplasty), distal angiopathy, cerebral apoplexy, chrci reversible obstructions (e.g., bronchitis, asthma (chronic asthma, allergic asthma), etc.), autoimmune disease, allergic rhinitis, urticaria, glaucoma, diseases characterized by enteromotility disorders (e.g., hypersensitive enteropathy syndrome, etc.), impotence (e.g., organic impotence, psychic impotence, etc.), nephritis, cachexia (e.g., progressive weight loss due to the lipolysis, myolysis, anemia, edema, anorexia, etc. associated with chronic diseases such as cancer, tuberculosis, endocrine disorder, AIDS, etc.), pancreatitis, or restenosis after PTCA.
The present inventors provide a novel benzimidazole derivative represented by the following formula (I) and its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising said compound or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt as an effective ingredient, which is usable for preventing and treating impaired glucose tolerance, diabetes (type II diabetes), diabetic complications (e.g., diabetic gangrene, diabetic arthropathy, diabetic osteopenia, diabetic glomerulosclerosis, diabetic nephropathy, diabetic dermatopathy, diabetic neuropathy, diabetic cataract, diabetic retinopathy, etc.), syndrome of insulin resistance (e.g., insulin receptor disorders, Rabson-Mendenhall syndrome, leprechaunism, Kobberling-Dunnigan syndrome, Seip syndrome, Lawrence syndrome, Cushing syndrome, acromegaly, etc.), polycystic ovary syndrome, hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disorders (e.g., stenocardia, cardiac failure, etc.), hyperglycemia(e.g., abnormal saccharometabolism such as feeding disorders, etc.), hypertension, stenocardia, pulmonary hypertension, congestive heart failure, glomerulopathy (e.g., diabetic glomerulosclerosis, etc.), tubulointerstitial disorders (e.g., renopathy induced by FK506, cyclosporin, etc.), renal failure, atherosclerosis, angiostenosis (e.g., after percutaneous arterioplasty), distal angiopathy, cerebral apoplexy, chronic reversible obstructions (e.g., bronchitis, asthma (chronic asthma, allergic asthma), etc.), autoimmune disease, allergic rhinitis, urticaria, glaucoma, diseases characterized by enteromotility disorders (e.g., hypersensitive enteropathy syndrome, etc.), impotence (e.g., organic impotence, psychic impotence, etc.), and nephritis, cachexia (e.g., progressive weight loss due to the lipolysis, myolysis, anemia, edema, anorexia, etc. associated with chronic diseases such as cancer, tuberculosis, endocrine disorder, AIDS, etc.), pancreatitis, or restenosis after PTCA.
