Summary for Patent: 5,317,010
Title: Parathyroid hormone analogues substituted at AA 25, 26, 27, and use in osteoporosis treatment
Abstract:Analogues of bovine and human parathyroid hormone, wherein twenty-fifth, twenty-six and twenty-seventh positions of the natural hormone, Arg-Lys-Lys- each have been substituted with Ala, Asn, Asp, Cys, Gln, Glu, Gly, His, Ile, Leu, Met, Phe, Pro, Ser, Thr, Trp, Tyr or Val have been found to retain bone cell effect with minimal effects on blood pressure and smooth muscle, including cardiac muscle. It has further been found that this effect can be obtained by using a synthetic PTH containing only the first 34 amino acids of PTH, with substitution at the twenty-fifth, twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh amino acids as described. These analogues of PTH also are effective in the treatment of osteoporosis and other bone diseases.

Assignee: Pang; Peter K. T. (Edmonton, CA)
Application Number:07/773,098
Patent Claims:1. A bovine parathyroid hormone analogue having amino acid substitutions at three positions, consisting essentially of the structure shown in SEQ ID NO:3, wherein Xaa.sup.25, Xaa.sup.26 and Xaa.sup.27 are each selected from the group consisting of Alanine (Ala), Isoleucine (Ile), Leucine (Leu), Methionine (Met), Phenylalanine (Phe), and Valine (Val).

2. The bovine parathyroid hormone analogue consisting essentially of the structure shown in SEQ ID NO:4.

3. A human parathyroid hormone analogue having amino acid substitutions at three positions, consisting essentially of the structure shown in SEQ ID NO: 5, wherein Xaa.sup.25, Xaa.sup.26 and Xaa.sup.27 are each selected from the group consisting of Alanine (Ala), Isoleucine (Ile), Leucine (Leu), Methionine (Met), Phenylalanine (Phe), and Valine (Val).

4. The human parathyroid hormone analogue consisting essentially of the structure shown in SEQ ID NO:6.

5. A bovine parathyroid hormone analogue having amino acid substitutions at three positions, consisting essentially of the structure shown in SEQ ID NO:7, wherein Xaa.sup.25, Xaa.sup.26 and Xaa.sup.27 are each selected from the group consisting of Alanine (Ala), Isoleucine (Ile), Leucine (Leu), Methionine (Met), Phenylalanine (Phe), and Valine (Val).

6. The bovine parathyroid hormone analogue consisting essentially of the structure shown in SEQ ID NO:8.

7. A human parathyroid hormone analogue having amino acid substitutions at three positions, consisting essentially of the structure shown in SEQ ID NO: 9, wherein Xaa.sup.25, Xaa.sup.26 and Xaa.sup.27 are each selected from the group consisting of Alanine (Ala), Isoleucine (Ile), Leucine (Leu), Methionine (Met), Phenylalanine (Phe), and Valine (Val).

8. The human parathyroid hormone analogue consisting essentially of the structure shown in SEQ ID NO:10.

9. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a PTH analogue wherein amino acids at positions 25, 26 and 27 are substituted with an amino acid selected from the group consisting of Alanine (Ala), Isoleucine (Ile), Leucine (Leu), Methionine (Met), Phenylalanine (Phe), and Valine (Val), and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

10. A method of treating osteoporosis in a patient in need of the treatment without causing substantial induction of hypotension, smooth muscle relaxation and cardiac inotropic and chronotropic action, said method comprising administering to said patient an osteoporotic treating effective amount of a PTH analogue wherein amino acids at positions 25, 26 and 27 are substituted with an amino acid selected from the group consisting of Alanine (Ala), Isoleucine (Ile), Leucine (Leu), Methionine (Met), Phenylalanine (Phe), and Valine (Val).
