DESCRIPTION
PYRIDAZINONE DERIVATIVES USED FOR THE TREATMENT OF PAIN
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a pyridazinone
derivative compound and a salt thereof, which are useful
for medicaments.
BACKGROUND ART
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic inflammatory
disease which causes mainly in the arthrosynovia. Today
Methotrexate (MTX) is used generally as a disease-modified
anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARD), but the efficacy for
inflammatory responses or arthritis mutilans is not enough.
On the other hand, the biologies, which targeted cytokines
(TNF, IL-1, IL-6), has been revealed recently its efficacy
for RA, and it has been proved the importance of these
cytokines in the manifestation of RA. In particular, the
monoclonal TNF antibody Remicade and soluble TNF receptor
fusion protein Enbrel, which inhibit the TNF function, are
worthy of note because of the unprecedented efficacy not
only for inflammatory response but for arthritis mutilans.
Though the fact above suggests that the importance of
the treatment for RA in future, these biologies have
fundamental drawbacks related to patient cost, efficacy of
production, limitation of administration to hypodermal or
intravenous injection, and so on. So, the anti-RA drugs in
the next generation are expected to overcome these problems,
that is to be an orally small-molecule drug, which blocks
or modulates selectively the function of these cytokines.

penicillin (50 U/ml), streptomycin (50 ng/ml) and 10% fetal
bovine serum (Moregate BioTech.) at 37°C, 5% C02 in a

x 105 cells/well final) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 10
u.g/mL final; Sigma L-4005, from E. coli serotype 055:B5)
were added to 96 well polypropylene culture plates (Sumilon,
MS-8196F5; sterile) containing test compound or 0.1% DMSO
vehicle. The cell mixture was incubated for 20 hours in a
humidified incubator at 37°C, 5% C02. The culture
supernatants were harvested and TNF-a levels from LPS
stimulated cells in the presence of 100 nM test compound
was calculated compared with control cells stimulated in
the presence of 0.1% DMSO.

[I] Test method
Arthritis was induced by injection of 0.5 mg of
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Difco Laboratories, Detroit,
Mich.) in 50 \iL of liquid paraffin into the right hind
footpad of female Lewis rats aged 7 weeks (day 0). Normal
untreated rats were used as negative controls. Animals
were randomized and grouped (n5) for drug treatment based
on an increase of left hind paw volume and body weight on
day 15. Test compounds were suspended in vehicle (0.5%
methylcellulose) and orally administered once a day from
days 15 to 24. The volume of the left hind paw was
measured on day 25 by a water displacement method using a
plethymometer for rats (MK-550; Muromachi Kikai Co., Ltd.,
