DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a novel class of peptidyl derivatives, to processes for their preparation, and to their use in medicine.
BACKGROUND TO THE INVENTION
Metalloproteinases, including matrix metalloproteinase (MMP), (human fibroblast) collagenase, gelatinase, and TNF convertase (TACE),, and their modes of action, and also inhibitors thereof and their clinical effects, are described in WO-A-9611209, PCT/GB96/02438 and PCT/GB96/02892, the contents of which are incorporated herein be reference. MMP inhibitors may also be useful in the inhibition of other mammalian metalloproteinases such as the adamalysin family (or ADAMS) whose members include TNF convertase (TACE) and ADAM-10, which can cause the release of TNF.alpha. from cells, and others, which have been demonstrated to be expressed by human articular cartilage cells and also involved in the destruction of myelin basic protein, a phenomenon associated with multiple sclerosis.
Compounds which have the property of inhibiting the action of metalloproteinases involved in connective tissue breakdown, such as collagenase, stromelysin and gelatinase, have been shown to inhibit the release of TNF both in vitro and in vivo. See Gearing et al (1994), Nature 370:555-557; McGeehan et al (1994), Nature 370:558-561; GB-A-2268934; and WO-A-9320047. All of these reported inhibitors contain a hydroxamic acid zinc-binding group, as do the imidazole-substituted compounds disclosed in WO-A-9523790. Other compounds that inhibit MMP and/or TNF are described in WO-A-9513289, WO-A-9611209, WO-A-96035687, WO-A-96035711, WO-A-96035712 and WO-A-96035714.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The invention encompasses novel mercaptoalkylacyl compounds of formula (I) which are useful inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases and/or TNF.alpha.-mediated diseases including degenerative diseases (such as defined above) and certain cancers.
