[(+)-2-(3-benzyl-4-hydroxy-chroman-7-yl)-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoic
acid] is a structurally novel, selective and potent leukotriene
B4 (LTB4) receptor antagonist. In
vitro CP-195543 inhibited [3H]LTB4
binding to high-affinity LTB4 receptors on human
neutrophils (HN) and murine spleen membranes with IC50
values of 6.8 nM (Ki = 4.9 nM) and 37.0 nM
(Ki = 26.9 nM), respectively. CP-195543 inhibited human and mouse neutrophil chemotaxis mediated by
LTB4 with IC50 values of 2.4 nM and 7.5 nM,
respectively. Evidence of noncompetitive antagonist effects on the HN
high-affinity LTB4 receptor was obtained by Scatchard
analysis of [3H]LTB4 binding to and
chemotaxis of HN to LTB4. Scatchard analyses of
[3H]LTB4 binding to low-affinity receptors on
HN indicated that CP-195543 acted as a competitive antagonist at this
receptor, and inhibition of LTB4-mediated CD11b
up-regulation on HN was inhibited competitively by CP-195543
(pA2 = 7.66). In whole blood, CP-195543 also blocked CD11b
up-regulation on HN (pA2 = 7.12) and murine neutrophils
(pA2 = 7.06) with a similar potency.
LTB4-mediated CD11b up-regulation on human monocytes and
eosinophils in whole blood were inhibited by CP-195543 with
IC50 values of 270 nM and 420 nM, respectively. CP-195543
at 10 µM failed to inhibit HN chemotaxis and CD11b up-regulation
mediated through alternative (i.e., complement fragment
5a, interleukin-8, platelet-activating factor) G-protein-coupled
chemotactic factor receptors. In vivo, after oral
administration, CP-195543 blocked LTB4-mediated neutrophil infiltration in guinea pig and murine skin with ED50 values
of 0.1 mg/kg and 2.8 mg/kg p.o., respectively. When administered in
osmotic pumps, CP-195543 reduced the clinical symptoms and attendant
weight loss in an IL-1-exacerbated murine model of collagen-induced arthritis with half-maximal effects associated with plasma drug levels
of 0.4 to 0.5 µg/ml. Collectively these data provide evidence of the
in vitro potency and in vivo efficacy of
a novel LTB4 antagonist and support its clinical evaluation
in a variety of inflammatory diseases in man.
