The present invention relates to novel classes of compounds of formula I which are caspase and TNF-alpha inhibitors. This invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds. The compounds and pharmaceutical compositions of this invention are particularly well suited for inhibiting caspase and TNF-alpha activity and consequently, can be advantageously used as agents against caspase-, interleukin-1-(“IL-1”), apoptosis-, interferon-y inducing factor-(IGIF), interferon-γ-(“IFN-γ”), or TNF-alpha mediated diseases, including inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases, destructive bone disorders, proliferative disorders, infectious diseases, and degenerative diseases. This invention also relates to processes for preparing the compounds of this invention. This invention also relates to methods for inhibiting caspase and TNF-alpha activity and decreasing IGIF production and IFN-γ production and methods for treating caspase-, interleukin-1, apoptosis-, and interferon-γ-, and TNF-alpha mediated diseases using the compounds and compositions of this invention.
本发明涉及式I的新型化合物类别,这些化合物是caspase和TNF-alpha抑制剂。本发明还涉及包含这些化合物的药物组合物。本发明的化合物和药物组合物特别适用于抑制caspase和TNF-alpha活性,因此可以作为对caspase、白细胞介素1(“IL-1”)、凋亡、干扰素y诱导因子(IGIF)、干扰素γ(“IFN-γ”)或TNF-alpha介导的疾病的药物,包括炎症性疾病、自身免疫性疾病、破坏性骨疾病、增殖性疾病、传染性疾病和退行性疾病。本发明还涉及制备本发明化合物的方法。本发明还涉及使用本发明化合物和组合物抑制caspase和TNF-alpha活性、减少IGIF和IFN-γ生成以及治疗caspase、白细胞介素1、凋亡和干扰素γ和TNF-alpha介导的疾病的方法。
