[0066] Modulation of vascular permeability is important in regulating the passage of small molecules or blood cells between blood vessels and surrounding tissues. Vascular permeability depends upon the physiological states of tissues such as during inflammation, changes in blood pressure, and fluctuations in ion and nutrient gradients. The junctions between the endothelial cells that line blood vessels are the immediate controllers of vascular permeability. The strength of these junctions is tightly regulated by the kinin-kallikrein system of polypeptides and enzymes. Abnormalities in the kinin-kallikrein system lead to a range of pathologies including angioedema, macular edema and brain edema. Angioedema is a potentially fatal blood disorder characterized by swelling that may occur in the face, gastrointestinal tract, extremities, genitalsand upper airways. Genetic hereditary angioedema attacks result from the unregulated activation of the kallikrein system with uncontrolled increases in vascular permeability. Currently there is a need for agents that are useful for the treatment of angioedema and for agents that inhibit plasma kallikrein.

[0067] The kallikrein-kinin system represents a metabolic cascade that, when activated, triggers the release of vasoactive kinins. The kinin-kallikrein system (KKS) consists of serine proteases involved in the production of kinins, principally bradykinin and Lys-bradykinin (kallidin). The KKS contributes to a variety of physiological processes including inflammation, blood pressure control and coagulation. The activation of this system is particularly important in blood pressure regulation and in inflammatory reactions, due to the ability of bradykinin to elevate vascular permeability and to cause vasodilatation of arteries and veins of the gut, aorta, uterus and urethra. The kinin-kallikrein system, also referred to as the contact system, consists of three serine proenzymes (factor XII (FXII) or Hageman factor, factor IX (FIX), and prekallikrein), and the kinin precursor high molecular weight kinin (HK). Contact activation is triggered by the binding of FXII to a negatively charged surface and involves the formation of a-FXIIa via autocatalysis. Bound a-FXIIa converts prekallikrein into kallikrein. Kallikrein can further convert a-FXIIa to P-FXIIa by an additional cleavage at R334-N335, a positive feedback mechanism that leads to sufficient kallikrein production to drive downstream processes. a-FXIIa consists of a heavy and light chain that are disulphide linked, whereas P-FXIIa lacks the heavy chain and loses its capacity to bind to negatively charged surfaces (Stavrou E, Schmaier AH., Thrombosis Research, 2010, 125(3) pp. 210-215). The N-terminal region of FXII (a-FXIIa heavy chain) shows strong homology with tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA), with the presence of fibronectin type I, epidermal growth factor, and Kringle domains (Ny et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 1984, 81(17) pp. 5355-5359; Cool DE, MacGillivray RT, The Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1987, 262(28) pp. 13662-13673). Kallikrein is a trypsin-like serine protease enzyme that cleaves high molecular weight kinin (HK) to produce bradykinin. Bradykinin then binds to the bradykinin 2R receptors (BK2R) on endothelial cells to trigger an increase in vascular permeability.

[0068] Protease inhibitors regulate the activation of the contact system. Several known serpins of plasma are Cl-inhibitor (CHNH), antithrombin III, a2 -macroglobulin, al-protease inhibitor, and a2-antiplasmin (Kaplan et al., Advances in Immunology, 1997 (66) pp.225-72; Pixley et al., The Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1985, 260(3) pp. 1723-9). However, CHNH is the major regulator of the intrinsic system, interfering with the activities of factor Xlla and of kallikrein (Cugno et al., The Journal of Laboratory and Clinical Medicine, 1993, 121(1) pp. 38-43). Both CHNH and a2 -macroglobulin account for more than 90% of the kallikrein inhibitory activity ofplasma. Thus, the FXII-dependent kallikrein-kinin system is tightly regulated by the CINH and when regulation of the FXII-dependent kallikrein-kinin system fails, in a subject, the subject is believed to suffer from hereditary angioedema (HAE) that is characterized by invalidating edema attacks.

[0069] Angioedema is a potentially fatal blood disorder characterized by swelling that may occur in the face, gastrointestinal tract, extremities, genitals and upper airways. Angioedema attacks begin in the deeper layers of the skin and mucous membranes with localized blood vessel dilatation and increased permeability. Symptoms of the disease result from the leakage of plasma from blood vessels into surrounding tissues. Genetic hereditary angioedema attacks result from unregulated activation of the kallikrein system with consequent overproduction of bradykinin and uncontrolled increases in vascular permeability. As vascular permeability rises beyond normal, plasma leaks out of the vasculature into surrounding tissue, causing swelling (Mehta D and Malik AB, Physiol. Rev., 86 (1), 279-367, 2006; Sandoval R et al., J. Physiol., 533(pt 2), 433-45, 2001; Kaplan AP and Greaves MW, Angioedema. J. Am. Acad. Dermatol., 2005).

[0070] HAE results from mutations in the genes that code for elements of the coagulation and inflammation pathways. The three forms of HAE are distinguished by their underlying causes and levels of the Cl -esterase inhibitor (Cl INH, serpin peptidase inhibitor, clade G, member 1) protein in the blood, which inhibits the activity of plasma kallikrein. In type I, patients have insufficient levels of functional CHNH, while type II patients have dysfunctional CHNH. While type I and II affect men and women at equal rates, type III, which primarily affects women, results from a mutation in coagulation factor XII (Hageman factor; HAE-FXII). The underlying causes of type I and II HAE are autosomal dominant mutations in CHNH gene (SERPING1 gene) on chromosome 11 (1 Iql2-ql3.1).

[0071] CHNH accounts for 90% of inhibition of FXIIa and 50% of inhibition of plasma kallikrein (Pixley RA et al., J. Biol. Chem., 260, 1723-9, 1985; Schapira M et al., Biochemistry, 20, 2738- 43, 1981). In addition, CHNH also inactivates prekallikrein (Colman RW et al, Blood, 65, 311- 8, 1985). When CHNH levels are normal, its activity blocks FXIIa from converting prekallikrein to kallikrein and blocks kallikrein's conversion to HK, thus preventing the production of bradykinin and the edemic episodes. When CHNH levels are low, or levels of dysfunctional CHNH are high, this inhibition fails and the pathogenic process ensues.

[0072] In addition to HAE, plasma kallikrein also contributes to non-hereditary angioedema, high altitude cerebral edema, cytotoxic cerebral edema, osmotic cerebral edema, diabetic macular edema (DME), clinically significant macular edema, cystoid macular edema (CME, Gao BB, Nat Med., 13(2), 181-8, 2007), retinal edema, radiation induced edema, lymph edema, glioma- associated edema, allergic edema e.g. airflow obstruction in chronic allergic sinusitis orperennial rhinitis. Other disorders of the plasma kallikrein system include retinopathy and diabetic retinopathy (Liu J and Feener EP, Biol. Chem. 394(3), 319-28, 2013), proliferative and non-proliferative retinopathy (Liu J et al, Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci., 54(2), 2013), CME following cataract extraction, CME induced by cryotherapy, CME induced by uveitis, CME following vascular occlusion (e.g., central retinal vein occlusion, branch retinal vein occlusion or hemiretinal vein occlusion), complications related to cataract surgery in diabetic retinopathy, hypertensive retinopathy (JA Phillips et al., Hypertension, 53, 175-181, 2009), retinal trauma, dry and wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD), ischemic reperfusion injuries (C Storoni et al., JPET, 381, 849-954, 2006), e.g., in a variety of contexts associated with tissue and / or organ transplantation.

[0073] Current treatments for angioedema, and those under development, target different elements in the HAE pathway. Three classes of therapies are currently available: (a) replacement therapy with C1INH concentrates (e.g., Cinryze, Berinert), (b) administration of selective kallikrein inhibitors (e.g., Ecallantide) and (c) bradykinin receptors antagonists (e.g., Firazyr). Replacement therapies have proven useful for both acute attacks, including emergency situations, such as laryngeal edema (Bork K et al., Transfusion, 45, 1774-1784, 2005; Bork K and Barnstedt S E, Arch. Intern. Med., 161, 714-718, 2001) and prophylaxis. Selective C1INH inhibitors inactivate both a-FXIIa and P-FXIIa molecules active early in the HAE pathway that catalyze the production of kallikrein (Muller F and Renne T, Curr. Opin. Hematol., 15, 516-21, 2008; Cugno M et al., Trends Mol. Med. 15(2):69-78, 2009). In addition to HAE, plasma kallikrein inhibitors are considered to be useful in the treatment of other edemas such as macular edema and brain edema, and retinopathy, e.g., retinopathy associated with diabetes and / or hypertension. There is evidence that plasma kallikrein inhibitors are also effective in the treatment of edema formation in diseases, e.g., edema formation related to ischemic reperfusion injuries. The bradykinin receptors antagonists prevent bradykinin from activating the vascular permeability pathway and stop the initiation of swelling.Novel Kallikrein Inhibitors

Biological EvaluationExample 1: In vitro enzyme inhibition

[0307] The ability of the compounds disclosed herein to inhibit human plasma kallikrein activity was quantified according to the procedures below.

[0308] A 10 mM solution of the test compound was made in DMSO. This solution was serially diluted 1 :5 in DMSO to yield 2000, 400, 80, 16, 3.2, 0.64, 0.128, 0.0256 and 0.00512 pM compound test solutions. A control tube containing only DMSO is included. 16 pL of each compound test solution was combined with 384 pL of assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 0.01% Triton X-100) to yield a “4X test compound buffer stock”.

[0309] Separately, a 40 nM solution of human Plasma Kallikrein (Abeam) and a 93.6 pM solution Pro- Phe-Arg-AMC (Bachem) were made using assay buffer. These solutions are hereby refered to as 4X hPK and 2X PFR-AMC, respectively.

[0310] 60 pL of each 4X test compound buffer stock was combined with 60pL of 4X hPK to yield 120 pL of “2X test compound buffer stock / 2X hPK”. 50 pL was removed from this mixture and placed into duplicate wells on a Microfluor IBlack U-bottom microtiter plate (Thermo Scientific). This plate was incubated for 5 minutes at 37 °C. To each well, 50 pL of prewarmed 2X PFR-AMC was added to start the enzymatic reaction. Cleavage of PFR-AMC was monitored in a Biotek Synergy H4 reader set at 37 °C. Readings are taken every 43 seconds for 1 hour. The highest mean velocity over 20 reads (~15 minutes) is used to calculate the IC50. The IC50 is calculated using the Gen5 (Biotek Instruments) and is provided in Table 2.Example 2: In vitro cellular assay

[0316] A 10 mg / mL stock solution of DXS was diluted to 1.25 mg / mL, lul of this DXS was mixed with 47ul of 100% human plasma in assay plate. The plate was incubated for 7 min at 4 °C. A 16000 nM stock solution of FXIIa was diluted to 500 nM, lul of this FXIIa was mixed with 47 pl of 100% human plasma in assay plate. The plate was incubated for 30 min at 4 °C.

[0317] The test compound at various concentrations, prepared by serial dilutions as described above, was added to the test wells. The volume of the test compound added to each test well was 1 pL, to yield final concentrations of 2000 nM, 500 nM, 125 nM, 31.25 nM, 7.81 nM and 1.95 nM. Each test compound concentration was tested in duplicate.

[0318] In addition to the inhibitor control and test wells, the 96-well assay plate included positive control wells which contain the mixture of human plasma and DXS / FXIIa without test compound, and background wells which contain neither the mixture of human plasma and DXS / FXIIa nor test compound. The total volume of liquid in positive control and background wells was brought up to 49 pL, using the assay buffer.

[0319] The assay plate containing test compound, mixed with human plasma and ellagic acid and appropriate controls, was incubated at 37 °C for 5 min.

[0320] A 10 mM stock solution of substrate Z-FR-2-AMC was diluted to 2000 pM in the assay buffer, and 1 pL of the diluted substrate was added to each well, to yield a final substrate concentration of 40 pM in each well. The reagents were mixed well by shaking the plate gently for 30 sec.

[0321] The enzyme reaction was quantified by immediate kinetic reading of the assay plate using excitation / emission wavelengths of 330 nm / 440 nm respectively. Fluorescence intensity was recorded for 60 min, using a time interval of 43 sec. The highest mean velocity for 10 reads within the first 30 minutes was used to calculate the ECso and EC90 values.

[0322] The inhibition activity of compounds was evaluated using the EC50 and EC90 values, calculated according to the dose-response curve of compounds, fitted using the “log (inhibitor)-response (variable slope)” equation in GraphPad Prism software (GraphPad Software, Inc.).The percentage inhibition was calculated using the following equation:Inhibition" / . = 100Mean (PC)- Mean (BG)Where, Mean(BG) is the average value of the fluorescence intensity of the background wells and Mean (PC) is the average value of the fluorescence intensity of the positive control wells.
