The present invention relates to novel classes of compounds which are inhibitors of interleukin-1.beta. converting enzyme ("ICE"). This invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds. The compounds and pharmaceutical compositions of this invention are particularly well suited for inhibiting ICE activity and, consequently, may be advantageously used as agents against interleukin-1-("IL-1"), apoptosis-, interferon-.gamma. inducing factor-(IGIF), interferon-.gamma.-("IFN-.gamma.") mediated diseases, excess dietary alcohol intake diseases, or viral diseases, including inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases, destructive bone disorders, proliferative disorders, infectious diseases, and degenerative diseases. This invention also relates to methods for inhibiting ICE activity and decreasing IGIF production and IFN-.gamma. production and methods for treating interleukin-1, apoptosis- and interferon-.gamma.-mediated diseases using the compounds and compositions of this invention. This invention also relates to methods of preparing the compounds of this invention.

La présente invention concerne des nouvelles classes de composés, lesquels sont des inhibiteurs de l'enzyme de conversion de l'interleukine-1.beta., de même que des compositions pharmaceutiques contenant ces composés. Ces composés et compositions pharmaceutiques sont notamment conçus pour inhiber l'activité de l'enzyme de conversion de l'interleukine-1.beta., et en conséquence, on peut les utiliser avantageusement en tant qu'agents dirigés contre des maladies induites par l'interleukine-1 (IL-1), par l'apoptose, par le facteur d'induction de l'interféron-.gamma., par l'interféron-.gamma., contre des maladies consécutives à une consommation excessive d'alcool, ou des maladies virales, notamment des maladies inflammatoires, auto-immunes, des troubles osseux destructeurs, des désordres prolifératifs, des maladies infectieuses et dégénératives. L'invention concerne également des procédés destinés à inhiber l'activité de l'enzyme de conversion de l'interleukine-1.beta. et à diminuer la production du facteur d'induction de l'interféron-.gamma., ainsi que des procédés de traitement de maladies induites par l'interleukine-1, l'apoptose et l'interféron-.gamma.-, à l'aide des composés et compositions de l'invention. On décrit encore des procédés de préparation des composés de l'invention.
