Active Compound means any compound that
— has the ability to inhibit (or, in the case of a prodrug, an active species of which inhibits) cathepsin S with a [K; equal to or less than 100 nM];
— has greater than [100- fold selectivity] for cathepsin S against an [appropriate panel of cathepsins in appropriate assays,] as determined by the JRC; and
— has appropriate [in-cell activity in concentrations of less than IO µMin a relevant cell based assay(s)] selected by the JRC.
Cathepsin S is associated with certain inflammatory diseases, such as arthritis, asthma, atherosclerosis and a variety of autoimmune diseases.
Cysteine proteases are enzymes that are responsible for the cleavage and breakdown of other natural proteins in normal biological processes. In disease conditions, cystein proteases can often be misregulated, providing an entry point for drug intervention. Cathepsin S has been associated with the processing and activation of the antigen receptor called MHC-II, essential for the initiation of both normal and pathological immune responses mediated by T-cells. Drugs designed to inhibit this enzyme may provide a novel method for control of antigen-induced response in multiple inflammatory and autoimmune disease states, the companies believe.
