Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] The present application is a divisional application of copending U.S. application Ser. No. 10/515,623, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety, and which is a National Stage Application of International Application No. PCT/JP03/07120, filed Jun. 5, 2003, which claims priority under the Paris Convention from Japanese Patent Application No. 2002-165148, filed Jun. 6, 2002.

FIELD OF INVENTION

[0002] The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions effective for preventive and/or therapeutic treatment of allergic diseases such as pollinosis, bronchial asthma, atopic dermatitis, urticaria; endometriosis, and hysteromyoma.

BACKGROUND ART

[0003] Allergic diseases are understood to be caused by production of IgE by an antigen stimulation invaded in a body, and successive release of various chemical mediators such as inflammatory cytokine, histamine, leukotriene and the like by a degranulation from an activated mast cell stimulated by a complex of the antigen and IgE, thereby constriction of airway, accentuation of vascular permeability, inflammation of skin, bronchi and the like are induced. Accordingly, antiallergic agents are understood mainly as drugs inhibiting allergic reaction type I and successively induced allergic inflammation, particularly as drugs inhibiting the production and release of the mediators from mast cells, or those as being antagonists against the aforementioned actions. At present, steroids, antihistaminic drugs, suppressants or inhibitors of the release of mediators and the like have been used as antiallergic agents. Although steroids are very effective drugs, they have a problem of side effects. Antihistaminic drugs are only for symptomatic therapies and fail to achieve radical therapy. Suppressants or inhibitors of the release of mediators are considered to have a high effectiveness. However, some of them lack immediate effectiveness or have central side effects. Accordingly, the antiallergic drugs currently available are not fully satisfactory as they are.

[0004] Patients with endometriosis are increasing in recent years, and currently, 10 to 14% of females are considered to be suffered from the disease. Endometriosis has been focused as a cause of sterility, as well as the disease lowers the quality of life of patients with severe pains during menstruation and coitus. For a treatment of the disease, a therapy by using a hormone drug has been currently applied as a pseudo menopausal therapy. However, the aforementioned therapy induces strong side effects, and it also has a risk of causing osteoporosis during a long-term administration. Therefore, at present, a drug or a method for treatment with safety and high efficacy is not available.

[0005] In recent years, it was found that mast cells exist apparently with high density in the lesion of endometriosis (American Journal of Reproductive Immunology (New York: 1998), (Denmark), Vol. 40, No. 4, p. 291-294), and that mast cells are activated to lead degranulation (Nikkei Medical, 2002, No. 415, p. 28; Fertility and Sterility, (USA), 2002, Vol. 78, No. 4, p. 782-786). Furthermore, a relation between endometriosis and allergy is strongly suggested, because interstitial hyperplasia, which is a major step of infiltration and lesion of mast cells, is significantly inhibited by the administration of a leukotriene antagonist having antiallergic action to an endometriosis model rat (Nikkei Medical, 2002, No. 415, p. 28; Fertility and Sterility, (USA), 2002, Vol. 78, No. 4, p. 782-786).

[0006] Therefore, an antiallergic drug, which strongly inhibits activation of mast cells and can be used as a therapeutic agent for radical treatment of allergic diseases, is usable as an effective therapeutic agent for endometriosis.

[0007] 45% of patients with endometriosis are suffered from hysteromyoma, which suggests a relation of hysteromyoma and allergy in the same manner as endometriosis. Accordingly, it is highly probable that an antiallergic agent, which can be used as a therapeutic agent for radical treatment of allergic diseases, is useful as a therapeutic agent for hysteromyoma.

Therefore, those skilled in the art can prepare any compound fall within the general formulas (I), (I-1), (I-2), (I-3) and (I-4) by referring to the explanations of the aforementioned general preparation methods and those of specific preparation methods of the examples, by choosing appropriate reaction raw materials, reaction reagents, and reaction conditions, and by adding appropriate modification and alteration of these methods, if necessary.

[0406] The compounds represented by the general formulas (I), (I-1), (I-2), (I-3), and (I-4) have antiallergic action, and accordingly, they are useful as active ingredients of the medicaments for the preventive and/or therapeutic treatment of allergic diseases. The aforementioned medicaments have inhibitory activity against the proliferation of mast cells, inhibitory activity against the production of IgE from activated B cells, and inhibitory activity against the degranulation from activated mast cells. Therefore, they can be suitably used as a suppressant against allergic reaction expression. More specifically, the medicaments of the present invention are useful for the preventive and/or therapeutic treatment of the following diseases wherein allergic reaction is believed to be involved, for example, allergic diseases such as contact dermatitis, a topic dermatitis, eczema, pruritus, pollinosis, asthma, bronchitis, urticaria, vasculitis, rhinitis, gastrointestinal symptoms, diarrhea, interstitial pneumonia, arthritis, ophthalmia, conjunctivitis, neuritis, otitis media, granulomatosis, encephalomyelitis, cystitis, laryngitis, peliosis, food allergy, insect allergy, drug allergy, metal allergy, anaphylactic shock and the like, and/or endometriosis and/or hysteromyoma.

[0407] Furthermore, in endometriosis, it is known that an adhesion of the uterus with its peripheral tissue frequently occurs due to an abnormal proliferation of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. It is known that this is caused by an inflammatory reaction by allergy and the like, and a phenomenon called as "remodeling" including fibrosis and hyperplasia of tissue as typical examples occurs (Frontiers in Bioscience, (USA), 2002, Vol. 7, the April 1 issue, p.e 91-115). As for the fibrosis of tissue, it is widely known that one of the causes is a production of a large amount of collagen, which is triggered by infiltration of effector cells and activation of proliferation of fibroblast by inflammation. This remodeling phenomenon is considered to be occurred on the basis of a mechanism common in the remodeling of cardiac muscle after myocardial infarction, the remodeling of a vessel by arteriosclerosis, the remodeling of bronchus by bronchial asthma or the like, as well as in the adhesion of a tissue in endometriosis. Accordingly, an inhibitor against the proliferation or activation of a fibroblast is considered to be useful as a therapeutic drug not only for endometriosis but for diseases in which fibrosis or remodeling of a tissue is believed to be involved, for example, myocardial infarction, arteriosclerosis, asthma, nephritis, interstitial pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis, hepatic cirrhosis and the like.
