INHIBITEURS D'ENDOPEPTIDASE NEUTRE (NEP) ET D'ENDOPEPTIDASE SOLUBLE HUMAINE (HSEP) POUR REDUIRE LES EFFETS NOCIFS D'UNE DEFICIENCE DE PERFUSION D'ORGANES
The invention relates to a novel use of benzazepine, benzoxazepine, benzothiazepine-N-acetic acid and phosphono-substituted benzazepinone derivatives having both neutral endopeptidase (NEP) and/or human soluble endopeptidase (hSEP), and endothelin convertase (ECE), inhibitory activity. The compounds of this invention are useful for the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions to reduce harmful effects of symptomless progressive disseminated perfusion deficiency of organs, or parts thereof, that may be suggestive of systemic diseases.
