- an autoimmune disease such as multiple sclerosis, peripheral neuritis, optical neuritis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and uveitis
- Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS) with an unknown pathophysiological cause.
- CNS central nervous system
- Clinical manifestations are associated with the infiltration of the central nervous system by immune-competent cells.
- Specific T cell populations directed towards neuroantigens, such as myelin basic protein, can be demonstrated in the periphery. This suggests the involvement of an autoimmune response in the development of the disease.
- immunosuppressive therapy including azathioprine and corticosteroids in order to limit the extent of the inflammatory process.
- Immunosuppressive therapy of multiple sclerosis is only partially effective, and in most cases only offers a delay in disease progression despite anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive treatment.
- VEGF-pathway inhibitors are useful for the treatment of autoimmune diseases.
- VEGF-pathway inhibitors includes, but is not limited to compounds which inhibit the VEGF receptor tyrosine kinase, compounds which inhibit a VEGF receptor and compounds binding to VEGF, and are in particular those compounds, proteins disclosed in WO 00/59509, WO 98/1 1223, WO 00/27819, EP 0 769 947, US 6,624,174, US2004-0224968, US 6,608,071 , US 6,448,277, US 6,706,731 , US2005- 0054692, US 2004-0224986, US2004-0248947, US2005-0032899, US2005-0096356, WO2004/005282, WO2004/052884, WO2006/059234 (disclosing e.g.

- a physician, clinician or veterinarian of ordinary skill can readily determine and prescribe the effective amount of the VEGF-pathway inhibitor required to prevent, counter or arrest the progress of the condition.
- Optimal precision in achieving concentration of the active ingredients within the range that yields efficacy without toxicity requires a regimen based on the kinetics of the active ingredients' availability to target sites.
- the present invention provides a commercial package comprising a VEGF- pathway inhibitor together with instructions for its use in the treatment of an autoimmune disease.
- the present invention also relates to the use of a VEGF-pathway inhibitor for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of an autoimmune disease.
- EAE acute experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis
- chronic relapsing form Animal models: The monophasic model of acute experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) and the chronic relapsing form are considered to be instructive animal models for multiple sclerosis.
- EAE can be induced in susceptible animals by a single injection of CNS tissue or MBP emulsified in complete Freund's adjuvant into the base of the tail.
- a monophasic acute paralytic disease appears in susceptible rat strains, e.g., Lewis, Wistar rat, about 8-1 1 days post-sensitization.
- the symptomatic rats recover within the following 7 days, but in other species the attack is usually lethal.
- rats undergo one to three relapses following the acute disease bout. These relapses are usually from very mild to severe and are observed within 10-100 days after the acute bout.
- Chronic-relapsing EAE is induced by injecting an emulsion of guinea pig spinal cord in complete Freund's adjuvant in the hind paws of Lewis rats. Six to ten rats per group are used and somatic symptoms are judged daily on a scale of 0-3. The number of diseased animals as well as the time of onset of the disease is recorded.
- Treatment with the test compound e.g. a compound mentioned herein, e.g. 6-(6-hydroxymethyl-pyrimidin-4-yloxy)- naphthalene-1-carboxylic acid (3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-amide (Compound 1 ), is started on day 16 (after first disease bout) and continued until day 31.
- Compound 1 leads to prevention of disease symptoms when administered at doses of 3 mg/kg/day in this model.
