The present invention relates to a pyrazolopyridine carboxamide derivative, an addition salt thereof, and a hydrate thereof useful as a phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor.
Phosphodiesterases (PDE) are enzymes that break down cyclic AMP (cAMP) and cyclic GMP (cGMP), which are second messengers in living organisms. At present, 11 families of PDEs being PDE1 to PDE11 have been identified, and each family specifically breaks down either cAMP or cGMP or both. The PDE families are distributed differently in various tissues. It has been considered that the cell reactions in different organs are controlled by different PDE families.
Up to the present, a large number of PDE inhibitors have been developed. For example, PDE3 inhibitors are expected to be effective drugs for angina pectoris, cardiac failure, hypertension, and the like and to be platelet aggregation inhibitors and antiasthmatic drugs. PDE4 inhibitors are expected to be effective drugs for bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), interstitial pneumonia, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, rheumatic arthritis, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, dementia, Parkinson's disease, and the like. PDE5 inhibitors have already-been clinically used as therapeutic drugs for male sexual dysfunction. Moreover, it has been recently reported that the use of minocycline as a PDE10A modulator is effective for patients with Huntington's disease (Patent Document 1). Also, a patent application publication (Patent Document 2) discloses that PDE10 inhibitors are effective drugs for various psychiatric disorders such as Huntington's disease, Alzheimer's disease, dementia, Parkinson's disease, and schizophrenia.
Patent Documents 3 to 6 disclose pyrazolopyridine derivatives with PDE inhibitory activity. However, the compounds of the present invention, i.e., pyrazolopyridine carboxamides, are not disclosed in Patent Documents 3 to 6, and it has not been known that the compounds of the present invention have PDE inhibitory activity. Carboxamide derivatives with PDE inhibitory activity are disclosed in Patent Documents 7 to 31 and Non-Patent Documents 1 to 7. However, the structures of such carboxamide derivatives are different from the structures of the compounds of the present invention.

Guinea pigs were anesthetized with pentobarbital (30 mg/kg, i.p.). A cannula for intravenous administration, a cannula for collecting blood and measuring blood pressure, and a tracheal cannula were inserted into the left external jugular vein, right internal carotid artery, and trachea, respectively. The guinea pigs were maintained on artificial respiration under the conditions of 60 times/min and 10 mL/kg/stroke. The airflow from the side branch of the tracheal cannula was measured by a bronchospasm transducer (Ugo-Basile) and recorded on a computer via Power Lab (ADInstruments Japan). The guinea pigs were immobilized with gallamine (10 mg/kg, i.v.), and histamine was administered at 10-minute intervals (12.5 μg/kg, i.v.). After the histamine-induced bronchoconstriction was constant, one of the test compounds (1 mg/kg, i.v. or 0.3 mg/kg, i.v.) dissolved in DMSO was administered. We examined the inhibitory action of test compounds on histamine-induced bronchoconstriction 30 seconds after compounds administration. Bronchoconstriction was recorded as the amount of airflow, and the results were represented by the ratio of the maximum value of the histamine-induced airflow 30 seconds after the administration to the maximum value of the airflow before the administration. When the inhibition ratio≧90%, the results were represented by “+++.” When 90%>the inhibition ratio≧70%, the results were represented by “++.” When 70%>the inhibition ratio≧30%, the results were represented by “+.” The results shown in brackets are for 0.3 mg/kg administration, and the other results are for 0.1 mg/kg administration.

The sediment was re-suspended in 10 mL of a 0.1% bovine serum albumin-physiological saline, and an equivalent amount of Turk's solution was added to the suspension to stain leukocytes. The total number of leukocytes was counted under a microscope to determine the inhibition ratio.
