BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Infection with the bacterium Porphyromonas gingivalis has
been linked to the development of periodontal disease, Alzheimer's
disease and other brain disorders, cardiovascular disease,
diabetes, cancer, liver disease, kidney disease, preterm birth,
arthritis, pneumonia and other disorders. P. gingivalis is an
anaerobic asaccharolytic gram-negative rod bacterium that is known
to infect the oral cavity and translocate systemically into
coronary arteries, aorta, placental tissue, the brain, the kidneys,
and the liver. The bacterium has also been identified in cancerous
tissues and a mechanism has been proposed by which gingipains can
trigger immortalization and metastasis. See: Gandhimadhi, et al.

[0003] P. gingivalis produces proteases called gingipains,
including Arginine Gingipain A (RgpA), Arginine Gingipain B (RgpB)
and Lysine Gingipain (Kgp). Gingipains contribute to many functions
of the organism including its survival and virulence. Gingipains
can be secreted, transported to outer membrane surfaces of P.
gingivalis, or released in outer membrane vesicles by the
bacterium. Gingipains degrade a broad range of proteins (e.g.,
immunoglobulins, proteinase inhibitors, actin, and collagen) which
can lead to cytoskeleton collapse and apoptosis in many types of
cells. Recent research has demonstrated that inhibitors of
gingipains can prevent P. gingivalis-induced cell death. See;
Travis, et al., Adv Exp Med Biol, 2000. 477: 455-65; Sheets, et
al., Infect Immun, 2005. 73(3): 1543-52; Sheets, et al., Infect
Immun, 2006. 74(10): 5667-78; Stathopoulou, et al., BMC Microbiol,
2009. 9: 107. New compounds for the inhibition of gingipain
activity and the treatment of diseases associated with gingipain
activity and P. gingivalis infection are needed. The present
invention addresses this and other needs.

group) unreactive, but is also removable so as to restore the amino
group. Examples of protecting groups include, but are not limited
to, benzyloxycarbonyl (Z or Cbz); 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl
(Fmoc); tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc); allyloxycarbonyl (Alloc);

those of skill in the art including, for example, those described
by Green and Wuts (Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 4.sup.th
Ed 2007, Wiley-Interscience, New York).
[0071] As used herein, the term "carbonyl," by itself or as part of
another substituent, refers to --C(O)--, i.e., a carbon atom
double-bonded to oxygen and bound to two other groups in the moiety
having the carbonyl.
[0072] As used herein, the term "amino" refers to a moiety
--NR.sub.2, wherein each R group is H or alkyl. An amino moiety can
be ionized to form the corresponding ammonium cation.
"Dialkylamino" refers to an amino moiety wherein each R group is
alkyl.
[0073] As used herein, the term "sulfonyl" refers to a moiety
--SO.sub.2R, wherein the R group is alkyl, haloalkyl, or aryl. An
amino moiety can be ionized to form the corresponding ammonium
cation. "Alkylsulfonyl" refers to an amino moiety wherein the R
group is alkyl.
[0074] As used herein, the term "hydroxy" refers to the moiety
--OH.
[0075] As used herein, the term "cyano" refers to a carbon atom
triple-bonded to a nitrogen atom (i.e., the moiety
--C.ident.N).

[0080] In general, the term "substituted," whether preceded by the
term "optionally" or not, means that one or more hydrogens of the
designated moiety are replaced with a suitable substituent. Unless
otherwise indicated, an "optionally substituted" group may have a
suitable substituent at each substitutable position of the group,
and when more than one position in any given structure may be
substituted with more than one substituent selected from a
specified group, the substituent may be either the same or
different at every position. Combinations of substituents are
generally those that result in the formation of stable or
chemically feasible compounds. The term "stable," as used herein,
refers to compounds that are not substantially altered when
subjected to conditions to allow for their production, detection,
and, in certain embodiments, their recovery, purification, and use
for one or more of the purposes disclosed herein. In general,
"substituted," as used herein, does not encompass replacement
and/or alteration of a key functional group by which a molecule is
identified, e.g., such that the "substituted" functional group
becomes, through substitution, a different functional group. For
example, a "substituted phenyl" group must still comprise the
phenyl moiety and cannot be modified by substitution, in this
definition, to become, e.g., a cyclohexyl group.

[0087] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable
excipient" refers to a substance that aids the administration of an
active agent to a subject. By "pharmaceutically acceptable," it is
meant that the excipient is compatible with the other ingredients
of the formulation and is not deleterious to the recipient thereof.
Pharmaceutical excipients useful in the present invention include,
but are not limited to, binders, fillers, disintegrants,
lubricants, glidants, coatings, sweeteners, flavors and colors.
[0088] As used herein, the term "salt" refers to acid or base salts
of the compounds of the invention. Illustrative examples of
pharmaceutically acceptable salts are mineral acid (hydrochloric
acid, hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, and the like) salts,
organic acid (acetic acid, propionic acid, glutamic acid, citric
acid and the like) salts, and quaternary ammonium (methyl iodide,
ethyl iodide, and the like) salts. It is understood that the
pharmaceutically acceptable salts are non-toxic.
[0089] Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the acidic compounds of
the present invention are salts formed with bases, namely cationic
salts such as alkali and alkaline earth metal salts (such as
sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium salts), as well
as ammonium salts (such as ammonium, trimethyl-ammonium,
diethylammonium, and tris-(hydroxymethyl)-methyl-ammonium
salts).
[0090] Similarly acid addition salts, such as of mineral acids,
organic carboxylic and organic sulfonic acids, e.g., hydrochloric
acid, methanesulfonic acid, maleic acid, are also possible provided
a basic group, such as pyridyl, constitutes part of the
structure.
[0091] The neutral forms of the compounds can be regenerated by
contacting the salt with a base or acid and isolating the parent
compound in the conventional manner. The parent form of the
compound differs from the various salt forms in certain physical
properties, such as solubility in polar solvents, but otherwise the
salts are eq to the parent form of the compound for the purposes of
the present invention.
[0092] In addition to salt forms, the present invention provides
compounds which are in a prodrug form. Prodrugs of the compounds
described herein are those compounds that readily undergo chemical
changes under physiological conditions to provide the compounds of
the present invention. Additionally, prodrugs can be converted to
the compounds of the present invention by chemical or biochemical
methods in an ex vivo environment. For example, prodrugs can be
slowly converted to the compounds of the present invention when
placed in a transdermal patch reservoir with a suitable enzyme or
chemical reagent.
[0093] As used herein, the terms "Porphyromonas gingivalis" and "P.
gingivalis" refer to the gram-negative asaccharolytic bacterium
that is recognized as a key causative microbe in the pathogenesis
of periodontitis and related conditions. "P. gingivalis infection"
refers to the invasion and colonization of P. gingivalis in a
bodily tissue such as the gums or the brain. P. gingivalis
infection is frequently characterized by subsequent tissue injury
and disease.
[0094] As used herein, the term "gingipain" refers to cysteine
proteases expressed by P. gingivalis having trypsin-like
specificity (i.e., Lys-Xaa and Arg-Xaa). Gingipains are recognized
as the major virulence factors of P. gingivalis and contribute to
bacterial attachment and colonization, nutrient acquisition,
evasion of host defenses, and tissue invasion. The terms "arginine
gingipain" and "Rgp" are used interchangeably to refer to the P.
gingivalis arginine-specific gingipains RgpA and RgpB, classified
under EC number EC 3.4.22.37. The rgpA and rgpB gene-translation
products, RgpA and RgpB, share a caspase-like protease domain
(specific for Arg-Xaa peptide bonds) and an immunoglobulin-like
domain. In RgpA, the protease and immunoglobulin-like domains are
followed by a large C-terminal extension containing
hemagglutinin-adhesin domains.
[0095] As used herein, the term "inhibiting" refers to reducing the
level of activity (e.g., proteolytic activity) of an enzyme such as
a gingipain which can be assessed, for example, using an in vitro
assay or other suitable assay. Inhibition of enzyme activity caused
by a particular substance (e.g., a gingipain inhibitor as described
herein) can be expressed as the percentage of the enzyme activity
measured in the absence of the substance under similar conditions.
The ability of a particular substance to inhibit an enzyme can be
expressed as an IC.sub.50 value, i.e., the concentration of the
compound required to reduce the activity of the enzyme to 50% of
its maximum activity.
[0096] As used herein, the terms "treat," "treatment," and
"treating" refer to any indicia of success in the treatment or
amelioration of an injury, pathology, condition, or symptom (e.g.,
cognitive impairment), including any objective or subjective
parameter such as abatement; remission; diminishing of symptoms or
making the symptom, injury, pathology or condition more tolerable
to the patient; reduction in the rate of symptom progression;
decreasing the frequency or duration of the symptom or condition;
or, in some situations, preventing the onset of the symptom. The
treatment or amelioration of symptoms can be based on any objective
or subjective parameter, including, e.g., the result of a physical
examination.
[0097] As used herein, the terms "effective amount" and
"therapeutically effective amount" refer to a dose of a compound
such as an Rgp inhibitor that inhibits the activity of a gingipain
and/or produces therapeutic effects for which it is administered.
The exact dose will depend on the purpose of the treatment, and
will be ascertainable by one skilled in the art using known
techniques (see, e.g., Lieberman, Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms
(vols. 1-3, 1992); Lloyd, The Art, Science and Technology of
Pharmaceutical Compounding (1999); Pickar, Dosage Calculations
(1999); Goodman & Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of
Therapeutics, 11.sup.th Edition, 2006, Brunton, Ed., McGraw-Hill;
and Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 21.sup.st
Edition, 2005, Hendrickson, Ed., Lippincott, Williams &
Wilkins).
[0098] As used herein, the term "Alzheimer's disease" refers to a
progressive disease of the central nervous system in humans and
other mammals. It is manifested by dementia (especially in the
elderly); disorientation; loss of memory; difficulty with language,
calculation, or visual-spatial skills; and psychiatric
manifestations. Alzheimer's disease is associated with progressive
neurodegeneration and characteristic pathology, namely beta amyloid
plaques and tau tangles.
[0099] As used herein, the term "osteoarthritis" refers to a
chronic degenerative joint disease that results from breakdown of
joint cartilage, synovial tissue, and underlying bone.
[0100] As used herein, the term "subject" refers to animals such as
mammals, including, but not limited to, primates (e.g., humans),
cows, sheep, goats, horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, mice and the
like.

[0258] In some embodiments, the aminopyridyl ketone compound is
selected from:
##STR00008## ##STR00009## ##STR00010## ##STR00011##
##STR00012##
and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
[0259] Aminopyridyl ketones may be prepared by the following
approaches, summarized in Scheme 1 and described below. As shown in
Scheme 1, aminopyridines (e.g., 2-amino-4-formylpyridine and
2-amino-5-formylpyridine (xi)) can be reacted with a suitable
protecting reagent (e.g., di-tert-butyl dicarbonate) to prepare the
corresponding mono- and/or di-protected formylpyridines (xii),
wherein P.sup.1 is H or a protecting group and P.sup.2 is a
protecting group. Any of these aldehydes (xii) may be reacted with
a protected phosphonate (xiii) (wherein Q.sup.1 is H or a
protecting group; Q.sup.2 is a protecting group; and each R is
independently C.sub.1-6 alkyl; e.g.,
ZHNCH(CO.sub.2Me)PO.sub.3Me.sub.2) and a strong base to prepare
dehydro-aminopyridylalanine methyl esters (xiv).
##STR00013##
[0260] When Q.sup.1 and/or Q.sup.2 is a Z group (or another
protecting group which can be removed by hydrogenation),
dehydro-aminopyridylalanines (xiv) may be hydrogenated in the
presence of palladium on carbon, providing aminoesters (xv) by
simultaneously saturating the olefins and deprotecting the
.alpha.-amino group. The free amino groups may be reacted with
carboxylic acids (R.sup.3C(O)OH) and dehydrating agents to form
amidoesters (xvi). The dehydrating agent may be HATU or any of many
other reagents suitable for carboxamide formation. The amidoesters
may be converted to protected products (xvii) by various routes. In
one non-limiting example, the amidoesters are hydrolyzed using a
strong based such as NaOH. The resulting carboxylic acids are then
reacted with ClCO.sub.2Et, a tertiary amine, and diazo methane to
form diazomethyl ketones, which can then be treated with HBr to
give bromomethyl ketones. In another sequence, the methyl esters
may be treated with ClCH.sub.2I and LiN(iPr).sub.2 to provide
chloromethyl ketones in one step. The bromomethyl ketones or
chloromethyl ketones can be heated with substituted phenols and KF
in DMF to give aryloxymethyl ketones. In another non-limiting
example, the bromomethyl or chloromethyl ketones are treated with
isoxazole-5-one and KF in DMF to give isoxazolyloxymethyl ketones.
Lastly, the protecting groups P.sup.1 and P.sup.2 (e.g., Boc
groups) may be removed under suitable conditions (e.g., via
treatment with trifluoroacetic acid), to afford the desired final
products.
[0261] The starting materials and reagents used in preparing the
compounds of the invention are either available from commercial

[0308] In some embodiments, the aminopyridinecyanamide compound is
selected from:
##STR00019##
and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
[0309] In some embodiments, the aminopyridinecyanamide compound is
selected from:
##STR00020## ##STR00021## ##STR00022## ##STR00023##
and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
[0310] In some embodiments, the aminopyridinecyanamide compound is
selected from:
##STR00024## ##STR00025##
[0311] and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
[0312] The aminopyridinecyanamide compounds of the invention may be
prepared by the approaches summarized in Scheme 2 and described
below. As shown in Scheme 2, an amine (i), bearing a reactive group
G.sup.1, can be reacted with an amino-heterocycle (ii), bearing a
reactive group G.sup.2. This reaction involves transformation of
reactive groups G.sup.1 and G.sup.2 to form intermediate (iii)
containing a linkage Y between the amine and the amino-heterocycle
structures. Prior to this reaction, the amine is usually protected
and the amino-heterocycle is sometimes protected. In general,
P.sup.11 is selected from R.sup.11 as described above, hydrogen,
and a protecting group; P.sup.12 is selected from hydrogen and a
protecting group; and Q.sup.11 and Q.sup.12 are independently
selected from hydrogen, R.sup.15a as described above, R.sup.15b as
described above, and a protecting group. Any suitable protecting
group (e.g., tert-butoxy carbonyl (Boc), benzyloxycarbonyl (Z),
trifluoroacetyl, or another easily removed group) can be used for
protecting the amine and the amino-heterocycle, and the protecting
groups are typically chosen so that either may be removed without
removing the other. For example, Boc may be removed by treatment
with trifluoroacetic acid, which does not remove Z. Meanwhile, Z
may be removed by hydrogenolysis in the presence of palladium on
carbon, which does not remove Boc.
[0313] A wide variety of reactive groups G.sup.1 and G.sup.2 are
suitable for forming the linkage Y between the amine and
amino-heterocycle structures. A halide G.sup.1 group or a sulfonate
ester G.sup.1 group can undergo a Williamson reaction with a phenol
G.sup.2 group or thiophenol G.sup.2 group on the amino-heterocycle
to form a linking ether or thioether. Employing a phosphine (e.g.,
Ph.sub.3P) and an azodicarboxylate (e.g., DEAD) as co-reagents, an
alcohol G.sup.1 group can undergo a Mitsunobu reaction with a
phenol G.sup.2 group or thiophenol G.sup.2 group to form a linking
ether
##STR00026##
or thioether. An unprotected primary amine G.sup.1 group or
unprotected secondary amine G.sup.1 group can undergo an Ullmann
reaction with a halide G.sup.2 group to form a secondary or
tertiary linking amine. The Ullmann reaction can be catalyzed with
a homogeneous copper or palladium catalyst, as described by
Buchwald, Hartwig, Fu, and others.
[0314] An olefin G.sup.1 group can undergo a Heck reaction with a
halide G.sup.2 group to form a linking olefin. An alkyne G.sup.1
group can undergo a Sonagashira reaction with a halide G.sup.2
group to form a linking alkyne. A boronic acid G.sup.1 group can
undergo a Suzuki reaction with a halide G.sup.2 group or triflate
G.sup.2 group to form a biaryl linkage. A stannane G.sup.1 group
can undergo a Stille reaction with a halide G.sup.2 group or
triflate G.sup.2 group to form a biaryl linkage. After a Heck,
Sonagashira, Suzuki, or Stille reaction, certain intermediates
(iii) (e.g., intermediates wherein P.sup.11 and R.sup.12a are taken
together to form unsaturated heterocyclyl) can be hydrogenated to
achieve partial or full saturation.
[0315] An aldehyde G.sup.1 group on the amine may undergo a
Grignard or "Grignard-like" reaction with an organomagnesium or
organolithium G.sup.2 group on the amino-heterocycle, to form a
linkage bearing a secondary alcohol. A carboxylic acid G.sup.1
group on the amine may undergo a decarboxylating photoreaction with
a halide G.sup.2 group on the amino-heterocycle to form a
carbon-carbon bond between the decarboxylated amine and the
amino-heterocycle.
[0316] After the reaction involving reactive groups G.sup.1 and
G.sup.2, and formation of the linkage Y between the amine and
amino-heterocycle, the protecting group on the amine can be removed
to provide an amine (iv), and the amine can be reacted with
cyanogen bromide to form a cyanamide (v). After formation of the
cyanamide, any protecting group on the amino-heterocycle can be
removed to provide products according to Formula III.
[0317] Other methods can also be used for preparing an amine (iv)
for the corresponding cyanamide (v). In some instances, the amine
precursor can be obtained via reductive amination of a ketone or
aldehyde on the amino-heterocycle. In some instances, the amine
precursor can be obtained via reduction of a nitro group on the
amino-heterocycle and subsequent mono-alkylation of the resulting
amino G.sup.2 group. In some instances, the amine precursor can be
obtained via reduction of a cyano group on the amino-heterocycle
and subsequent monoalkylation of the resulting amino G.sup.2 group.
In some instances, the amine precursor can be obtained via
simultaneous reduction of a nitro group and an olefin on the
amino-heterocycle, and subsequent mono-alkylation of the resulting
amino G.sup.2 group. In some instances, the amine precursor can be
obtained via simultaneous reduction of a cyano group and an olefin
on the amino-heterocycle, and subsequent mono-alkylation of the
resulting amino G.sup.2 group. In some instances, the amine
precursor can be obtained via a Schmidt reaction of a carboxylic
acid on the amino-heterocycle, and subsequent mono-alkylation of
the resulting amino G.sup.2 group.
[0318] The compounds of the invention are highly active Rgp
inhibitors, typically exhibiting Rgp IC.sub.50 values in the
nanomolar and micromolar range.
[0319] The term "IC.sub.50" indicates how much of a compound is
needed to inhibit a given biological process (or component of a
process, e.g., an enzyme, cell, cell receptor, or microorganism) by
one half (50%). The IC.sub.50 value for a particular test compound
can be measured as follows. Fifty microliters (.mu.L) of an enzyme
such as RgpA or RgpB (1 nM in 50 mM bis-Tris propane [pH 8.0]
containing 1% [vol/vol] Triton X-100 and 5 mM 2-mercaptoethanol) is
added to columns 1 to 11 of a 96-well plate, and 100 .mu.L is added
to column 12. Two .mu.L of the test compound (100 .mu.L in 100%
DMSO) is added to column 12, and the sample is mixed three times by
pipetting. Then, a doubling dilution is prepared across the plate
by serial transfer into adjacent wells. 50 .mu.L of
Z-Arg-7-amido-4-methylcoumarin ("Z-Arg-AMC;" 40 .mu.M in buffer) is
added to all wells, and the contents are mixed. The reaction is
monitored for AMC fluorescence for 15 min at 25.degree. C., and the
progress curves are automatically converted to rates by the
Fluoroskan Ascent software. The IC.sub.50 of a compound can then be
determined by constructing a dose-response curve and examining the
effect of different concentrations of the compound on reversing the
activity of the enzyme. From the dose-response curve, IC.sub.50
values can be calculated for a given compound by determining the
concentration needed to inhibit half of the maximum biological
response of the enzyme.
[0320] The method can also be used to assay enzymes including Kgp,
trypsin, and cathepsin B. For Kgp, the substrate can be
succinyl-Ala-Phe-Lys-AMC. For trypsin, the buffer can contain 10 mM
Tris and 10 mM CaCl.sub.2 (pH 8.0), and the substrate can be
Z-Gly-Gly-Arg-AMC. For cathepsin B, the buffer can contain 50 mM
sodium phosphate, 1 mM EDTA, and 10 mM 2-mercaptoethanol (pH 6.25),
and the substrate can be Z-Arg-Arg-AMC.
[0321] In general, the Rgp IC.sub.50 values for compounds of the
invention range from about 0.01 nM to about 100 .mu.M. The Rgp
IC.sub.50 value for a compound of the invention can range, for
example, from about 0.01 nM to about 0.1 nM, or from about 0.1 nM
to about 1 nM, or from about 1 nM to about 100 nM, or from about
100 nM to about 250 nM, or from about 250 nM to about 500 nM, or
from about 500 nM to about 750 nM, or from about 750 nM to about 1
.mu.M, or from about 1 .mu.M to about 10 .mu.M, or from about 10
.mu.M to about 25 .mu.M, or from about 25 .mu.M to about 50 .mu.M,
or from about 50 .mu.M to about 75 .mu.M, or from about 75 .mu.M to
about 100 .mu.M. The Rgp IC.sub.50 value for a compound of the
invention can range from about 0.01 nM to about 1 nM, or from about
0.05 nM to about 0.75 nM, or from about 0.1 nM to about 0.5 nM,
from about 1 nM to about 100 nM, or from about 20 nM to about 80
nM, or from about 40 nM to about 60 nM, or from about 1 .mu.M to
about 100 .mu.M, or from about 20 .mu.M to about 80 .mu.M, or from
about 40 .mu.M to about 60 .mu.M.
[0322] In some embodiments, an Rgp inhibitor according to the
invention has an RgpB IC.sub.50 of 75 nM or less. In some
embodiments, the Rgp inhibitor has an RgpB IC.sub.50 of 50 nM or
less. In some embodiments, the Rgp inhibitor has an RgpB IC.sub.50
of 25 nM or less. In some embodiments, the Rgp inhibitor has an
RgpB IC.sub.50 of 10 nM or less. In some embodiments, the Rgp
inhibitor has an RgpB IC.sub.50 of 1 nM or less.
[0323] In certain embodiments, Rgp inhibitors according to the
invention are selective for Rgp. As used herein, a "selective" Rgp
inhibitor is a compound that does not substantially affect the
activity of proteases other than RgpA and RgpB when administered at
a therapeutically effective dose for treating a disease or
condition associated with P. gingivalis infection. Typically, a
protease that is not substantially affected by a particular
compound exhibits at least 90% of its normal enzymatic activity in
the presence of the compound under physiological conditions.
Selective Rgp inhibitors include those compounds that do not affect
the activity of proteases other than Rgp when administered at a
therapeutically effective dose for treating a brain disorder,
periodontal disease, diabetes, a cardiovascular disease, arthritis,
rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, infectious arthritis,
psoriatic arthritis, preterm birth, pneumonia, cancer, a kidney
disease, a liver disease, a retinal disorder, or glaucoma
associated with P. gingivalis infection. Preferably, selective Rgp
inhibitors do not adversely affect the coagulation cascade when
administered at therapeutically effective levels.
IV. Pharmaceutical Compositions and Administration of Gingipain
Inhibitors
[0324] In a related embodiment, the invention provides a
pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of Formula I,
Formula Ha, Formula IIb, Formula III, Formula IVa, Formula IVb,
Formula IVc, or Formula V, and a pharmaceutically acceptable
excipient. The pharmaceutical compositions can be prepared by any
of the methods well known in the art of pharmacy and drug delivery.
In general, methods of preparing the compositions include the step
of bringing the active ingredient into association with a carrier
containing one or more accessory ingredients. The pharmaceutical
compositions are typically prepared by uniformly and intimately
bringing the active ingredient into association with a liquid
carrier or a finely divided solid carrier or both, and then, if
necessary, shaping the product into the desired formulation. The
compositions can be conveniently prepared and/or packaged in unit
dosage form.
[0325] Pharmaceutical compositions containing compounds of the
invention can be formulated for oral use. Suitable compositions for
oral administration include, but are not limited to, tablets,
troches, lozenges, aqueous or oily suspensions, dispersible powders
or granules, emulsions, hard or soft capsules, syrups, elixirs,
solutions, buccal patches, oral gels, chewing gums, chewable
tablets, effervescent powders, and effervescent tablets.
Compositions for oral administration can be formulated according to
any method known to those of skill in the art. Such compositions
can contain one or more agents selected from sweetening agents,
flavoring agents, coloring agents, antioxidants, and preserving
agents in order to provide pharmaceutically elegant and palatable
preparations.
[0326] Tablets generally contain the active ingredient in admixture
with non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, including:
inert diluents, such as cellulose, silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide,
calcium carbonate, sodium carbonate, glucose, mannitol, sorbitol,
lactose, calcium phosphate, and sodium phosphate; granulating and
disintegrating agents, such as corn starch and alginic acid;
binding agents, such as polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), cellulose,
polyethylene glycol (PEG), starch, gelatin, and acacia; and
lubricating agents such as magnesium stearate, stearic acid, and
talc. The tablets can be uncoated or coated, enterically or
otherwise, by known techniques to delay disintegration and
absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby provide a
sustained action over a longer period. For example, a time delay
material such as glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate can
be employed. Tablets can also be coated with a semi-permeable
membrane and optional polymeric osmogents according to known
techniques to form osmotic pump compositions for controlled
release.
[0327] Compositions for oral administration can be formulated as
hard gelatin capsules wherein the active ingredient is mixed with
an inert solid diluent (such as calcium carbonate, calcium
phosphate, or kaolin), or as soft gelatin capsules wherein the
active ingredient is mixed with water or an oil medium (such as
peanut oil, liquid paraffin, or olive oil).
[0328] Rgp inhibitors can also be administered topically as a
solution, ointment, cream, gel, or suspension, as well as in mouth
washes, eye-drops, and the like. Still further, transdermal
delivery of Rgp inhibitors can be accomplished by means of
iontophoretic patches and the like.
[0329] Pharmaceutical compositions containing Rgp inhibitors can
also be in the form of a sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous
solutions and suspensions. Sterile injectable preparations can be
formulated using non-toxic parenterally-acceptable vehicles
including water, Ringer's solution, and isotonic sodium chloride
solution, and acceptable solvents such as 1,3-butane diol. In
addition, sterile, fixed oils can be used as a solvent or
suspending medium. For this purpose any bland fixed oil can be
employed including synthetic monoglycerides, diglycerides, or
triglycerides.
[0330] In some embodiments, an Rgp inhibitor can be formulated with
a polymer such as Pluronic F127 and delivered subcutaneously.
Pluronic is a hydrogel that solidifies at body temperature and can
provide extended drug delivery over periods of time lasting from
days to weeks.
[0331] Aqueous suspensions can contain one or more Rgp inhibitors
in admixture with excipients including, but not limited to:
suspending agents such as sodium carboxymethylcellulose,
methylcellulose, oleagino-propylmethylcellulose, sodium alginate,
polyvinyl-pyrrolidone, gum tragacanth and gum acacia; dispersing or
wetting agents such as lecithin, polyoxyethylene stearate, and
polyethylene sorbitan monooleate; and preservatives such as ethyl,
n-propyl, and p-hydroxybenzoate. Dispersible powders and granules
(suitable for preparation of an aqueous suspension by the addition
of water) can contain one or more Rgp inhibitors in admixture with
a dispersing agent, wetting agent, suspending agent, or
combinations thereof. Oily suspensions can be formulated by
suspending an Rgp inhibitor in a vegetable oil (e.g., arachis oil,
olive oil, sesame oil or coconut oil), or in a mineral oil (e.g.,
liquid paraffin). Oily suspensions can contain one or more
thickening agents, for example beeswax, hard paraffin, or cetyl
alcohol. These compositions can be preserved by the addition of an
anti-oxidant such as ascorbic acid.
[0332] The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention can also be
in the form of oil-in-water emulsions. The oily phase can be a
vegetable oil, for example olive oil or arachis oil, or a mineral
oil, for example liquid paraffin or mixtures of these. Suitable
emulsifying agents can be naturally-occurring gums, such as gum
acacia or gum tragacanth; naturally-occurring phospholipids, such
as soy lecithin; esters or partial esters derived from fatty acids
and hexitol anhydrides, such as sorbitan monooleate; and
condensation products of said partial esters with ethylene oxide,
such as polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate.
[0333] The use of hybrid molecules to promote active transport or
nanoparticles can be used in certain embodiments to increase blood
brain barrier transport. For example liposomes, proteins,
engineered peptide compounds or antibodies that bind to the
receptors that transport proteins across the blood brain barrier
including LPR-1 receptor, transferrin receptor, EGF-like growth
factor or glutathione transporter can be used to increase
penetration into the brain. Physical techniques including osmotic
opening, ultrasound, lasers, sphenopalantine ganglion stimulation,
direct intracranial, intrathecal, or intraventricular delivery via
a pump can be used.
[0334] Pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention can
also include one or more additional active agents useful in the
treatment of conditions associated with P. gingivalis infection. In
certain embodiments, the invention provides a pharmaceutical
composition comprising one or more Rgp inhibitors as described
herein in combination with one or more additional active agents for
treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Several therapeutics are in
development and in clinical use for treatment of Alzheimer's
disease. Therapeutic strategies include lowering circulating levels
of .beta.-amyloid and tau (as described in more detail below),
stabilizing microtubules, removing atherosclerotic plaques,
modulating autophagy, modulating neurotransmitter levels, and
inhibiting GABA(A) .alpha.5 receptors. Such therapeutics can
maintain and/or restore cognitive function in subjects with
Alzheimer's disease; slow the decline of cognitive function; and
promote neuroplasticity and recovery of the brain.
[0335] Active agents that can be combined with Rgp inhibitors in
pharmaceutical compositions include, but are not limited to,
antibiotics (i.e., bacteriocidal compounds and bacteriostatic
compounds), cholinesterase inhibitors, alpha-7 nicotinic receptor
modulators, serotonin modulators, NMDA modulators, A.beta.-targeted
therapies, ApoE-targeted therapies, microglia-targeted therapies,
blood/brain barrier-targeted therapies, tau-targeted therapies,
complement-targeted therapies, and anti-inflammatories.
[0336] Any suitable antibiotic can be combined with one or more Rgp
inhibitors in the pharmaceutical compositions of the invention. In
certain embodiments, the invention provides a pharmaceutical
composition containing one more Rgp inhibitors and an antibiotic
having a P. gingivalis MIC.sub.50 of less than 25 .mu.g/ml. For
example, the P. gingivalis MIC.sub.50 of the antibiotic can be less
than 20 .mu.g/ml, less than 15 .mu.g/ml, less than 10 .mu.g/ml,
less than 8 .mu.g/ml, less than 6 .mu.g/ml, or less than 5
.mu.g/ml. In some embodiments, the P. gingivalis MIC.sub.50 of the
antibiotic is less than 1 .mu.g/ml. In some embodiments, the P.
gingivalis MIC so of the antibiotic is less than 0.2 .mu.g/ml.
[0337] Examples of bacteriocidal and bacteriostatic compounds

V. Methods for Inhibiting Gingipains and Treating Conditions
Associated with P. gingivalis Infection
[0345] In another embodiment, the invention provides a method of
inhibiting a gingipain. The method includes contacting the
gingipain with an effective amount of a compound as described
herein. In certain embodiments, the gingipain is an arginine
gingipain (e.g., RgpA, RgpB, or a variant containing one or more
amino acid substitutions, deletions, and/or other peptide sequence
variations). Inhibiting the gingipain generally includes contacting
the gingipain with an amount of the compound sufficient to reduce
the activity of the gingipain as compared to the gingipain activity
in the absence of the compound. For example, contacting the
gingipain with the gingipain inhibitor can result in from about 1%
to about 99% gingipain inhibition (i.e., the activity of the
inhibited gingipain ranges from 99% to 1% of the gingipain activity
in the absence of the compound). The level of gingipain inhibition
can range from about 1% to about 10%, or from about 10% to about
20%, or from about 20% to about 30%, or from about 30% to about
40%, or from about 40% to about 50%, or from about 50% to about
60%, or from about 60% to about 70%, or from about 70% to about
80%, or from about 80% to about 90%, or from about 90% to about
99%. The level of gingipain inhibition can range from about 5% to
about 95%, or from about 10% to about 90%, or from about 20% to
about 80%, or from about 30% to about 70%, or from about 40% to
about 60%. In some embodiments, contacting the gingipain with a
compound as described herein will result in complete (i.e., 100%)
gingipain inhibition.
[0346] As described above, infection with P. gingivalis and
gingipain activity have been linked to the development of
periodontal disease, Alzheimer's and other brain disorders,
cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, liver disease, kidney
disease, preterm birth, arthritis, pneumonia and other disorders.

29(2): 55-66; Yoneda, et al. BMC Gastroenterol, 2012. 12: 16.
[0347] Extracellular proteases produced by P. gingivalis, including
Arginine Gingipain A (RgpA), Arginine Gingipain B (RgpB), and
Lysine Gingipain (Kgp), can also degrade a broad range of proteins
in connective tissue and plasma (e.g., collagen, immunoglobulins,
and proteinase inhibitors, etc.). Gingipains can enter systemic
circulation and/or synoviocytes and chondrocytes, and they can also
cause disruption to the kallikrein-kinin cascade, blood
coagulation, and host defense systems. Patients with gingipains in
their joints and circulatory system may be subject to
gingipain-induced death of synovial cells and/or chondrocytes,
contributing to osteoarthritis.
[0348] It has recently been discovered that RgpB and Kgp can
infiltrate human and dog joints, contributing to the development of
osteoarthritis. It is believed that P. gingivalis and gingipains
can infiltrate joint tissues via a number of routes. Gingipains can
be secreted, transported to outer membrane surfaces of P.
gingivalis, or released in outer membrane vesicles by the
bacterium. P. gingivalis has previously been identified in
periodontal tissues, coronary arteries, aorta, and recently, the
liver-release of P. gingivalis and/or gingipains from any of these
niches into the systemic circulation could result in translocation
of P. gingivalis and/or gingipains to the joints. See; Travis, et
al. Adv Exp Med Biol, 2000. 477: 455-65; Byrne, et al. Oral
Microbiol Immunol, 2009. 24(6): 469-77; Mahendra, et al. J
Maxillofac Oral Surg, 2009. 8(2): 108-13; Stelzel. Periodontol,
2002. 73(8): 868-70; Ishikawa, et al. Biochim Biophys Acta, 2013.
1832(12): 2035-2043.
[0349] P. gingivalis and/or gingipains may also enter joints by
degrading the endothelial cells protecting the blood/joint barrier,
or by a traumatic event to the joint, such as a meniscus injury,
which permanently or transiently reduces the integrity of the joint
tissues. Such a disruption in traumatic joint injury for example,
may contribute to the infiltration of P. gingivalis and/or
gingipains in infected individuals and subsequent development of
chronic osteoarthritis. People who are at a high risk of traumatic
joint injury, including athletes in contact sports like football,
could be preventatively treated with gingipain inhibitors to reduce
the risk of trauma-related osteoarthritis.
[0350] P. gingivalis and gingipains may also reach the joint
through other mechanisms including active transport, passive
transport or macrophage delivery. Osteoarthritis resulting from any
of these mechanisms can be limited to a single joint or present in
multiple joints.
[0351] Similar to humans, P. gingivalis infection and periodontal
disease is one of the most common infectious diseases affecting
adult dogs and cats. Dogs and cats with P. gingivalis infection and
gingipains in their joints and circulatory system may experience
periodontal disease and osteoarthritis due to gingipain-induced
cell death, which could be treated or prevented according to the
methods of the invention. Aged dogs spontaneously develop many
features of osteoarthritis, including a common inflammatory knee
arthritis associated with degeneration of the anterior cruciate
ligament (ACL). A study by Muir et al. of dogs with inflammatory
knee arthritis and ACL degeneration detected DNA from a range of
bacterial species in 37% of knee joints from affected dogs. Muir et
al. hypothesized that bacteria may be an important causative factor
in the pathogenesis of inflammatory arthritis in dogs. In the Muir
et al. study, DNA from P. gingivalis was not detected in the dog
joints. See, Muir, et al. Microb Pathog, 2007. 42(2-3): 47-55.
However, similar to humans, P. gingivalis is a common oral pathogen
affecting adult dogs, and could potentially translocate from the
oral cavity to joint tissues as a result of bacteremia. P.
gingivalis has been demonstrated to infect chondrocytes in vitro
causing chondrocyte apoptosis, indicating a pathway for cartilage
loss in osteoarthritis of both dogs and humans. See; Rohner, et al.
Calcif Tissue Int, 2010. 87(4): p. 333-40; Houle, et al. FEMS
Microbiol Lett, 2003. 221(2): p. 181-5; Kataoka, et al. FASEB J,
2014. 28: 3564-3578; Pischon, et al. Ann Rheum Dis, 2009. 68(12):
p. 1902-7.
[0352] Rgp inhibitors can therefore be used to treat diseases and
conditions, such as brain disorders, caused by or otherwise
affected by P. gingivalis. Accordingly, another aspect of the
invention provides a method of treating a disease or condition
associated with P. gingivalis infection. The method includes
administering an effective amount of a compound or a composition of
the invention, as described above, to a subject in need
thereof.
[0353] In certain embodiments, compounds of the invention inhibit
active Rgp in the brain of a mammal, e.g., a human or an animal
(e.g., a dog), and are cytoprotective or neuroprotective. By
"neuroprotective," it is meant that the compounds prevent aberrant
changes to neurons or death of neurons. Compounds of the invention
are therefore useful, e.g., in treatment of a brain disorder (e.g.,
a neurodegenerative disease (e.g., Alzheimer's disease, Down's
syndrome, epilepsy, autism, Parkinson's disease, essential tremor,
fronto-temporal dementia, progressive supranuclear palsy,
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Huntington's disease, multiple
sclerosis, mild cognitive impairment, age associated memory
impairment, chronic traumatic encephalopathy, stroke,
cerebrovascular disease, Lewy Body disease, multiple system
atrophy, schizophrenia and depression, etc.), diabetes,
cardiovascular disease, arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis,
osteoarthritis, infectious arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, retinal
disorders (e.g., age related macular degeneration) and
glaucoma.
[0354] In some embodiments, the disease or condition is selected
from a brain disorder, periodontal disease, diabetes, a
cardiovascular disease, arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis,
osteoarthritis, preterm birth, pneumonia, cancer, a kidney disease,
a liver disease, a retinal disorder, and glaucoma.
[0355] In some embodiments, the disease or condition is a brain
disorder.
[0356] In some embodiments, the brain disorder is selected from
Alzheimer's disease, Down's syndrome, epilepsy, autism, Parkinson's
disease, essential tremor, fronto-temporal dementia, progressive
supranuclear palsy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Huntington's
disease, multiple sclerosis, mild cognitive impairment, age
associated memory impairment, chronic traumatic encephalopathy,
stroke, cerebrovascular disease, Lewy Body disease, multiple system
atrophy, schizophrenia, and depression.
[0357] In some embodiments, the brain disorder is Alzheimer's
disease.
[0358] In some embodiments, the method further includes
administering to the subject one or more active agents selected
from a cholinesterase inhibitor, a serotonin modulator, an NMDA
modulator, an A.beta. targeted therapy, an ApoE targeted therapy, a
microglia targeted therapy, a blood brain barrier targeted therapy,
a tau targeted therapy, a complement targeted therapy, and an
anti-inflammatory.
[0359] In some embodiments, the disease or condition is periodontal
disease. In some embodiments, the disease or condition is a liver
disease. In some embodiments, the liver disease is non-alcoholic
steatohepatitis. In some embodiments, the disease or condition is a
retinal disorder. In some embodiments, the retinal disorder is
age-related macular degeneration.
[0360] In some embodiments, the disease or condition is cancer. In
some embodiments, the cancer is breast cancer, oral cancer,
pancreatic cancer, or glioblastoma multiforme.
[0361] Rgp inhibitors as described herein can be administered at
any suitable dose in the methods of the invention. In general, an
Rgp inhibitor is administered at a dose ranging from about 0.1
milligrams to about 1000 milligrams per kilogram of a subject's
body weight (i.e., about 0.1-1000 mg/kg). The dose of Rgp inhibitor
can be, for example, about 0.1-1000 mg/kg, or about 1-500 mg/kg, or
about 25-250 mg/kg, or about 50-100 mg/kg. The dose of Rgp
inhibitor can be about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40,
45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 85, 90, 95, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300,
350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, 950 or
1000 mg/kg. The dosages can be varied depending upon the
requirements of the patient, the severity of the disorder being
treated, and the particular formulation being administered. The
dose administered to a patient should be sufficient to result in a
beneficial therapeutic response in the patient. The size of the
dose will also be determined by the existence, nature, and extent
of any adverse side-effects that accompany the administration of
the drug in a particular patient. Determination of the proper
dosage for a particular situation is within the skill of the
typical practitioner. The total dosage can be divided and
administered in portions over a period of time suitable to treat to
the disease or condition.
[0362] Rgp inhibitors can be administered for periods of time which
will vary depending upon the nature of the particular disorder, its
severity, and the overall condition of the subject to whom the Rgp
inhibitor is administered. Administration can be conducted, for
example, hourly, every 2 hours, three hours, four hours, six hours,
eight hours, or twice daily including every 12 hours, or any
intervening interval thereof. Administration can be conducted once
daily, or once every 36 hours or 48 hours, or once every month or
several months. Following treatment, a subject can be monitored for
changes in his or her condition and for alleviation of the symptoms
of the disorder. The dosage of the Rgp inhibitor can either be
increased in the event the subject does not respond significantly
to a particular dosage level, or the dose can be decreased if an
alleviation of the symptoms of the disorder is observed, or if the
disorder has been remedied, or if unacceptable side effects are
seen with a particular dosage.
[0363] A therapeutically effective amount of an Rgp inhibitor can
be administered to the subject in a treatment regimen comprising
intervals of at least 1 hour, or 6 hours, or 12 hours, or 24 hours,
or 36 hours, or 48 hours between dosages. Administration can be
conducted at intervals of at least 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, 192, 216,
or 240 hours (i.e., 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 days). In certain
embodiments, administration of one or more Rgp inhibitors is
conducted in a chronic fashion over periods ranging from several
months to several years. Accordingly, some embodiments of the
invention provide a method of treating a disease or condition
associated with P. gingivalis infection as described above, wherein
the compound is administered to the subject for at least one year.
In some embodiments, the compound is administered to the subject
for at least 10 years. In some embodiments, the compound is
administered to the subject for at least 60 years.
[0364] Administration of Rgp inhibitors according to the methods of
the invention typically results in the reduction of circulating
levels of active Rgp in a subject and/or the reduction of active
Rgp in the brain. In certain embodiments, administration of an Rgp
inhibitor according to the methods of the invention results in at
least a 20% reduction of circulating levels of active Rgp and/or at
least a 20% reduction of active Rgp in the brain. For example, the
circulating levels of Rgp and/or the levels of Rgp in the brain are
preferably reduced by from about 25% to about 95%, or from about
35% to about 95%, or from about 40% to about 85%, or from about 40%
to about 80% as compared to the corresponding levels of Rgp 24
hours prior to the first administration of the Rgp inhibitor.
[0365] Rgp inhibitors can be administered alone or in combination
with one or more additional therapeutically active agents, as
described above. The one or more additional therapeutically
effective agents include, e.g.: (i) a pharmaceutically acceptable
agent which inhibits Rgp A, RgpB, and/or Kgp production,
translocation of RgpA, RgpB, and/or Kgp into systemic circulation
or brain, and/or pathological (e.g., neurotoxic effects) of RgpA,
RgpB, and/or Kgp in a mammal; (ii) an antibacterial agent which is
bacteriostatic or bacteriocidal with respect to P. gingivalis;
(iii) one or more antibodies which bind to RgpA, RgpB and/or Kgp
(e.g., 18E6, which binds to the first half of the immunoglobulin
domain of RgpB; Kgp-specific monoclonal antibody, 7B9, which
recognizes an epitope within the Kgp catalytic domain; the RgpA
antibody 61Bg 1.3, humanized versions of any of the foregoing,
etc.); (iv) epitopes of antibodies which bind to RgpA, RgpB and/or
Kgp or other proteins expressed by P. gingivalis; and (v)
combinations of any of the foregoing.
[0366] The additional therapeutically active agents also include
A.beta. peptides level reducers, pathogenic level tau reducers,
microtubule stabilizers, agents capable or removing atherosclerotic
plaques, agents that lower circulating levels of .beta.-amyloid and
tau, modulators of autophagy, neurotransmitter level regulators,
GABA(A) .alpha.5 receptors inhibitors, and additional agents that
help maintain and/or restore cognitive function and functional
deficits of Alzheimer's disease, and/or slow down decline in
cognitive functions and functional deficits in Alzheimer's
disease.
[0367] Pharmaceutical compositions of the invention can contain one
or more Rgp inhibitors as described herein in combination with
ritonavir (RTV), which can increase bioavailability and increase
blood brain barrier penetration. For example, ritonavir is commonly
combined with oral peptidic HIV protease inhibitors to increase
plasma levels by inhibiting the P450 3 A4 enzyme and thus
decreasing first-pass metabolism (see, Walmsley, et al., N Engl J
Med, 2002. 346(26): 2039-46). In addition, RTV binds to
P-glycoprotein, a transmembrane efflux pump that is found in many
tissues, including the blood brain barrier, allowing
co-administered compounds better access to the brain (see,
Marzolini, et al., Mol Pharm, 2013. 10(6): 2340-9). Therefore, a
combination of RTV and Rgp inhibitors can be used to increase
plasma concentrations and brain levels of the gingipain inhibitors.
As described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 14/875,416, oral
administration of RTV 15 minutes prior to the Kgp inhibitor Kyt-36
increases the half-life therefore it is expected that RTV will also
increase the half-life of other gingipain inhibitors.
[0368] In some embodiments, compounds of the invention can be
administered with natural gingipain inhibitors including
melabaricone C, isolated from nutmeg or polyphenolic compounds
derived from plants, such as cranberry, green tea, apple, and hops
can be administered in conjunction for treatment or prevention of
brain disorders. Naturally and unnaturally occurring antimicrobial
peptides including: .kappa.-casein peptide (109-137) 34, histatin
5, and CL(14-25), CL(K25A) and CL(R24A, K25A), can also be
administered in conjunction with the Rgp inhibitors of the
invention, (see, e.g., Taniguchi et al., Biopolymers, 2014. 102(5):
379-89).
[0369] Rgp inhibitors as described herein can be administered with
antibodies targeting gingipains or other P. gingivalis proteins.
Antibodies may rely on damage to the blood brain barrier for access
to the brain or peripheral interference with gingipains and P.
gingivalis propagation. Antibodies can also help to stimulate the
efficacy of the immune system in clearing the bacteria. New or
existing antibodies to RgpA, RgpB, or Kgp can be utilized including
18E6 and 7B9. An RgpA antibody 61BG 1.3 has previously demonstrated
efficacy topically in prevention of recolonization by P. gingivalis
after periodontal treatment. See, Booth et al., Infect Immun, 1996.
64(2): 422-7. Antibodies would preferably be humanized for use in
humans. Methods known to those in the field for delivery of
biologics to improve half-life and brain penetration can be used
including, but not limited to, intravenous delivery, subcutaneous
delivery, intranasal delivery, intrathecal delivery,
intra-articular delivery, vector transport, and direct brain
delivery.
[0370] The methods of the invention also encompass administration
of Rgp inhibitors as described herein with one or more of the
following additional therapeutically active agents or
pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof: an arginine derivative;
histatin 5; baculovirus p35; a single point mutant of cowpox viral
cytokine-response modifier (CrmA (Asp>Lys));
phenylalanyl-ureido-citrullinyl-valyl-cycloarginal (FA-70C1);
(acycloxy)methyl ketone (Cbz-Phe-Lys-CH.sub.2OCO-2,4,6-Me.sub.3Ph);
peptidyl chloro-methyl ketones (e.g., chloromethyl ketone
derivatives of arginine, chloromethyl ketone derivatives of lysine,
and the like); fluoro-methyl ketones; bromo-methyl ketones;
ketopeptides; 1-(3-phenylpropionyl)piperidine-3(R,S)-carboxylic
acid [4-amino-1(S)-(benzothiazole-2-carbonyl)butyl]amide (A71561);
azapeptide fumaramide; aza-peptide Michael acceptors; benzamidine
compounds; acyclomethylketone; activated factor X inhibitors (e.g.,
DX-9065a); cranberry nondialyzable fraction; cranberry polyphenol
fraction; pancreatic trypsin inhibitor;
Cbz-Phe-Lys-CH.sub.2O--CO-2,4,6-Me.sub.3-Ph; E-64; chlorhexidine;
zinc (e.g., zinc acetate); or a combination of two, three or more
of any of foregoing. In some of these embodiments, Zn can enhance
potency and selectivity of the compounds (e.g., chlorhexidine,
benzamidine, etc.) used in the methods of the invention.
[0371] An Rgp inhibitor of the invention can be administered in the
same composition as an additional therapeutically active agent.
Alternatively, the additional therapeutically active agent can be
administered separately before, concurrently with, or after
administration of the Rgp inhibitor.

Example 75. Inhibition of Arginine Gingipain by the
Aminopyridinecyanamide Compounds of the Invention
[0830] The capacities of compounds of the present invention to
inhibit the activity of RgpB were measured in a fluorogenic assay
similar to those described in Barret Biochemical Journal. 1980,
187(3), 909. The specific assay conditions were as follows. Buffer:
pH=7.5, 100 mM Tris-HCl, 75 mM NaCl, 2.5 mM CaCl.sub.2, 10 mM
cysteine, 1% DMSO after all additions. Protein: 0.02 nM RgpB,
isolated from culture of Porphyromonas gingivalis, as described in
Pike et al. J. Biol. Chem. 1994, 269(1), 406, and Potempa and
Nguyen. Current Protocols in Protein Scienc. 2007,
21.20.1-21.20.27. Fluorogenic substrate: 10 .mu.M
Boc-Phe-Ser-Arg-MCA. Time=90 minutes. Temperature=37.degree. C.
Each compound: 10 concentrations, starting at either 100 .mu.M or
100 nM, with lower concentrations generated by serial 3-fold
dilutions. By testing a range of concentrations for each compound,
the concentration required to inhibit the activity of RgpB by 50%
(the "IC.sub.50") was determined. RgpB inhibitory activity is
summarized in the following table.
