Abstract

See full text

The present invention includes non-RGD cyclic peptides that inhibit the function of the integrin receptor, .alpha..sub.v .beta..sub.3. The inventive peptides are between five to about thirty amino acids in length and include the sequence (SEQ ID NO:8), Arg-Cys-Asp-Gly-X.sub.i where X.sub.i is any amino acid, and a five-membered cyclic portion. These non-RGD peptides display surprisingly potent antagonist activity despite the lack of the consensus binding sequence Arg-Gly-Asp, and present opportunities for selective targeting to the .alpha..sub.v .beta..sub.3 receptor. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods of use are also disclosed. The therapeutic uses for the inventive peptides include treating diseases involving .alpha..sub.v .beta..sub.3 receptors such as cancer, osteoporosis, restenosis, and angiogenic-based diseases.
