Definitions
- the present invention is concerned with the use of certain aryl hydroxyurea compounds in the manufacture of medicaments for the prophylaxis and treatment of clinical conditions for which inhibition of the oxidative modification of lipids is indicated, for example, atherosclerosis, with the medicaments obtained thereby and with their preparation and use in the prophylaxis and treatment of such conditions.
- European Patent Specification 0279263 describes a novel class of compounds having 5- and/or 12-lipoxygenase inhibiting properties which have potential utility in the treatment of asthma, allergy, arthritis, psoriasis and inflammation.
- EPS 0279263 also have the ability to scavenge the peroxyl radicals implicated in the oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) . It follows that these compounds may be suitable for use in the treatment of conditions for which inhibition of the oxidative modification of lipids is indicated, for example, atherosclerosis.
- LDL low density lipoprotein
- Y is C. 1f . alkylene or C complaint ⁇ n alkenylene
- R is hydrogen, C- , alkyl, amino, C. , alkylamino, di-C- , alkylamino, C,. -. cycloalkylamino, C,. ⁇ cycloalkyl C- , alkyl)- amino, anilino, N-C. , alkylanilino, or a group as defined for Ar above;
- Preferred compounds for use in the manufacture of the medicaments of the invention include those wherein r is benzofur-2-yl or benzothien-2-yl;
- Y is -CH 2 - or -CH(Me)-;

PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATION EXAMPLES
The "active ingredient" in the following formulations may be any compound of formula (I) as hereinbefore defined.
Example A: Tablet
Per tablet
Active Ingredient 5.0 mg
Lactose 82.0 mg
Starch 10.0 mg
Povidone 2.0 mg
Magnesium Stearate 1.0 mg
Mix together the active ingredient, lactose and starch. Granulate the powder using a solution of povidone in purified water. Dry the granules, add the magnesium stearate and compress to produce tablets (lOOmg per tablet) .
Example B: Injectable solution
Active Ingredient 10.0 mg
Water for Injections B.P. to 1.0 ml
The active ingredient is dissolved in half of the Water for Injections and then made up to volume and sterilised by filtration. The
resulting solution is distributed into ampoules under aseptic conditions.
BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
(i) Peroxyl radical scavenging
The ability of the compounds of the invention to scavenge peroxyl radicals was measured using the method described in Biochem. Pharm. 38, 1465 (1989) wherein the peroxidation of linoleic acid is inhibited. N-Hydroxy-N-(l-benzo[b]thien-2-ylethyl)urea was found to have significant anti-oxidant activity with an apparent rate constant (k „) for peroxyl radical scavenging of 0.11.
AH.
(ii) Inhibition of copper-induced peroxidation of LDL
Addition of copper to human low density lipoprotein (LDL) results in the initiation of a peroxidative reaction. This results in the formation of conjugated dienes in the lipid phase and a consequent increase in UV-absorbance at 234nm. Chain-breaking peroxyl radical scavengers inhibit this increase in absorbance at 234nm and this is used as the basis for an assay to estimate the ability of a compound to inhibit the peroxidation of LDL. The reaction was initiated by the addition of 10μM CuSO^ to a solution of LDL (125 g/ml) in phosphate-buffered saline. The test compounds were added as ethanolic solutions while ensuring the ethanol content of the resulting solution did not exceed 1% v/v. The absorbance at 234nm was monitored continuously with LDL containing 4μM butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and no copper as an optical reference. The time taken for the absorbance to increase to 50% of the maximum was measured for each test compound and plotted as a function concentration. From this plot, the concentration of compound needed to delay conjugated diene forma xon by 60 minutes ^βn^ was calculated. N-Hydroxy-N-(l-benzo[b]thien-2-ylethyl)urea was found to significantly inhibit the peroxidation of LDL with an Ifif) value of 40.1μM.
(iii)Inhibition of endothelial cell modification of LDL
Cultured endothelial cells can modify low density lipoprotein (LDL) so that It is rapidly taken up by the macrophage scavenger receptor. The modification involves peroxidation of LDL and brings about changes in the physiocochemical properties of LDL including an increase in electrophoretic mobility. Peroxyl radical scavengers have been shown to inhibit the endothelial cell modification of LDL as determined by a decrease in the electrophoretic mobility of the sample.
Porcine aortic endothelial cells at confluence were incubated for 24 hours at 37 C in Hams F10 medium containing 0.2mg/ml of LDL and a range of concentrations of the test compound in ethanolic solution. The ethanol concentration was always 0.5% w/v. At the end of the incubation, the samples were concentrated and changes in the electrophoretic mobility relative to native LDL measured.
From a plot of concentration against relative electrophoretic mobility, the IC5Q (concentration of test compound required to inhibit LDL modification by 50%) was determined for each sample. N-Hydroxy- N-(l-benzo[b]thien-2-ylethyl)urea was found to significantly inhibit LDL modification with an IC,-n of 0.5μM.
