Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for preparing a pharmaceutical compound, and in particular to a novel pyrazine structure FXR agonist, a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Since the discovery in 1999 that bile acids can activate FXR to produce a variety of physiological functions, selective and highly active FXR agonists have been discovered one after another. These FXR agonists can be divided into steroidal and non-steroidal types according to their structures. Steroidal types mainly include chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA, one of the bile acids) and its derivatives and the FXR agonist MFA-1 developed by Merck; non-steroidal types include isoxazole compounds GW4064 and its analogs, Fexaramine compounds, azaindole compounds XL335 and its derivatives, benzimidazole amide compounds, pyrazolidinedione compounds, etc.

[0003] Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a clinical pathological syndrome characterized by fatty degeneration and fat storage in hepatocytes without a history of excessive drinking and with liver histological changes similar to those of alcoholic liver disease. It includes simple fatty liver and its evolved fatty hepatitis and cirrhosis. Today, NAFLD has become the second most serious chronic liver disease affecting human health after hepatitis B. NASH is a chronic progressive liver disease caused by accumulation of fat in the liver, which can lead to cirrhosis, liver failure and hepatocellular carcinoma. To be precise, NASH is only a stage in the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

[0004] Among the drugs under clinical development, obeticholic acid is a FXR agonist. It was approved by the FDA in May 2016 for the treatment of primary bile acid cirrhosis (PBC) and is also the first NASH drug to enter Phase III clinical trials. The interim analysis of the key Phase III REGENERATE study of obeticholic acid for NASH patients with grade 2-3 liver fibrosis achieved positive results.

[0005] Other FXR agonists such as PX-104 have entered Phase II clinical trials, and their main indication is also non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

[0006]

[0007] In 2000, Maloney et al. reported the first highly active and selective isoxazole FXR agonist GW4064, whose extracellular activity was EC 50 =15nmol·L -1, EC at the cellular level 50 The value is 90nmol·L -1 , which can completely excite the FXR target protein; but in terms of pharmacokinetics, the oral availability at t1 / 2 = 3.5 hours is only 10%, which does not meet the conditions for drug development, so it is used as a tool compound for studying FXR function and related diseases. Subsequently, GSK, Novartis, Roche, Lilly, Phenex and other companies have modified the structure of GW4064 in order to obtain new compounds with higher activity, better oral availability and more drug properties. So far, a large number of isoxazole compounds have been successfully synthesized, but they are insufficient in terms of drugability such as activity, water solubility and oral bioavailability.

[0008]

[0009] Chinese patent CN103702719A discloses novel FXR (NR1H4) binding and activity regulating compounds, which specifically disclose the following compounds:

[0010]

[0011] And the use of these compounds in the treatment of diseases such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). These compounds are improvements based on the compounds disclosed in WO2011 / 020615, and are achieved by introducing polar hydroxyl groups on 1,3-cyclobutylene or 1,3-aziridinyl groups replacing 1,2-cyclopropylene groups. The results show that the obtained compounds maintain activity on the FXR receptor and show improved physicochemical properties, such as higher water solubility and / or membrane permeability. Better water solubility and membrane permeability lead to higher oral bioavailability. However, the activation activity of the above compounds at the farnesoid nuclear receptor FXR target is relatively low. Summary of the invention

[0047]

[0048]

[0049]

[0050] According to the sample activity results in Table 1, TM-05, TM-07, and TM-10 with poor activity were removed, and the remaining 7 samples were selected for intracellular FXR-TR-FRET experiments.

[0051] Experimental Example 2: Intracellular FXR-TR-FRET Experiment

[0052] 1. Cell culture: a. Trypsinize the dish and seed cells in 10 ml complete trypsin at an appropriate density at 37°C. b. Culture the cells for 24 hours under 5% CO2 and humidified conditions.

[0053] 2. Cell seeding and transfection: FuGENE HD transfection reagent was used as the transfection reagent.

[0054] aPrepare the transfection mixture according to the following procedure:

[0055]

[0056] b. Tap the tube vigorously to mix the contents. Incubate the mixture at room temperature for 15 minutes.

[0067] 5. Calculation of results: Normalize the data values ​​by dividing the firefly signal by the Renilla signal. "F / R" stands for "firefly / Renilla". This normalization eliminates the differences in the number of cells and transfection efficiency in each well. Calculate the %Activation value. Calculate the %Activation value by the following formula.

[0068]

[0069] X is the "F / R" value for each concentration point. The minimum value is the average "F / R" value of the no compound control. The maximum value is the average "F / R" value of the reference compound control.

[0070] 6. The activity results are shown in Table 2.

[0073] The activity of the tested compounds on FXR-TR-FRET was studied. Most of these compounds containing pyrazine structures showed better agonist activity at the cellular level compared with the reference substances GW4064 and M3.

[0074] According to the results of FXR-TR-FRET experiments, TM-03 and TM-04 were removed, and Caco-2 monolayer cell membrane transport experiments were performed on the remaining compounds.

[0075] Experimental Example 3: Caco-2 monolayer cell membrane transport experiment

[0076] The Caco-2 monolayer cell model of human colon adenocarcinoma cell line was used to study the bidirectional transport of the target compound from the apical side (AP) to the basolateral side (BL) and from the BL side to the AP side. High performance liquid chromatography was used for quantitative analysis, and the transport parameters, apparent permeability coefficient (Papp) and efflux ratio were calculated. M3 was used as the positive control and digoxin, the substrate of P-gp, was used as the reference. These five samples with high intracellular activity were selected for testing to predict the in vivo oral bioavailability of this type of pyrazine isoxazole derivatives and their affinity with P-gp.

[0077] The results are shown in Tables 3, 4 and 5.

[0083] Table 5 Efflux rate in Caco-2 cell model

[0084]

[0085] Note: a Excretion rate = Papp BA / Papp AB

[0086] The experimental results are shown in Table 3. The Papp values ​​of the series of pyrazine isoxazole compounds of the present invention are higher than that of the P-gp substrate digoxin (Papp A-to-B <0.04), and better than M3 (Papp A-to-B <0.15). In particular, the Papp, A-to-B values ​​of the four compounds TM-01, TM-02, TM-06 and TM-09 are >2.5×10-6cm / s, which are high permeability substrates. These data show that this type of pyrazine isoxazole compound has good membrane permeability and is predicted to be better absorbed in the body than M3.

[0087] Table 4 shows the recovery rates of these pyrazine-containing compounds after membrane permeation. The bidirectional transport of these five compounds was evaluated, and the results are shown in Table 5. From the efflux rate, it can be seen that compared with M3, these derivatives have greatly weakened the efflux rate, and their efflux rates are much lower than the reference substance digoxin (efflux rate>262.93), and it is predicted that the oral absorption in the body will also be improved accordingly.

[0088] According to the results of Experiment 3, TM-08 with poor effect was removed, and other compounds were retained for animal experiments. Regarding the control group: M3 was excluded because of its poor membrane permeation effect. GW4064 was excluded as a tool molecule in preliminary research because of its poor drugability and low oral bioavailability. M2 was also used as a control compound in the early stage. In the first protein level screening, its activity was lower than that of the compound in this patent and was excluded. Obeticholic acid is a drug currently in clinical research in the field of non-alcoholic fat and is close to approval. It was selected as a control substance for animal experiments.

After 21 days of administration, blood was collected from the tail tip using a microcapillary tube for AST and ALT determination. After 28 days of administration, the mice were terminated, blood was collected from the heart, and liver tissue was collected and weighed. One part was quickly frozen with liquid nitrogen for subsequent analysis, and the other part was fixed for pathological analysis.

[0117] 2.4.1 Blood index determination

[0118] Mouse blood was centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 10 min, and the supernatant was collected for the determination of TG (triglyceride), TC (total cholesterol), HDL (high-density lipoprotein), LDL (low-density lipoprotein), AST (aspartate aminotransferase) and ALT (alanine aminotransferase).

[0121] Mouse blood was centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 10 minutes, and the supernatant was collected for the detection of cytokines (mKC and MCP1). Serum was stored at -80°C before detection.

[0122] The determination of mKC and MCP1 was carried out according to the instructions of the kit.

[0123] 2.4.3 Determination of liver TC and TG

[0124] The liver was taken out from -80°C, homogenized in PBS (phosphate buffered saline), and the organic phase was extracted with chloroform and methanol. TC and TG were measured using a kit and normalized by protein amount.

[0129] 3 Test results

[0130] 3.1 Effects of compounds on body weight and food intake of mice

[0131] After the mice were fed with MCD, their body weight decreased significantly as expected. And as time went on, their body weight continued to decrease. The body weight of each experimental group treated with the compound was also slightly lower than that of the model group (Table 6).

[0137] 3.2 Effects of compounds on blood parameters

[0138] After 3 weeks of MCD and compound treatment, tail tip blood was collected for AST and ALT determination. The results showed that the ALT in the model group increased by about 3 times compared with the control group, and the AST increased by more than 2 times. The obeticholic acid group resulted in higher AST and ALT levels than the model group. The ALT and AST in the TM-01 group, TM-06 group, and TM-09 group decreased significantly compared with the model group, and the TM-02 group showed the same performance as the obeticholic acid group. (Table 8)

[0139] After 4 weeks of MCD and compound treatment, the blood lipid level of animals in the model group was slightly higher than that in the control group. Obeticholic acid treatment reduced the cholesterol content in the blood. The TM-01 group, TM-02 group, TM-06 group and TM-09 group had different effects on reducing blood lipids (Table 9).

[0148] 3.4 Effects of compounds on liver weight in mice

[0149] After 4 weeks of MCD and compound treatment, the livers were collected and weighed. The liver weight and liver / body weight ratio of the model group mice were significantly lower than those of the control group. When analyzing the results, it was unexpectedly found that such compounds had a significant effect on liver weight, among which the TM-01 group, TM-02 group, TM-06 group and TM-09 group all significantly increased the liver weight (liver weight) and liver / body weight ratio (i.e., liver / body weight) of mice. (Table 11).

[0152] 3.5 Effects of Compounds on Liver Pathology

[0153] After fixation, mouse liver was stained with HE and Sirius Red. After staining, the whole slide was scanned. Six 20x fields of view were randomly selected. The six 20x fields of view stained with HE were comprehensively scored for pathology (i.e., HE score). The pathology scoring criteria are shown in Table 12. The six 20x fields of view stained with Sirius Red were used to calculate the ratio of the positive staining area of ​​Sirius Red to the total area (i.e., Sirius red staining area) using Image J.

[0154] Table 12: Pathological scoring criteria

[0155]

[0156]

[0157] After 4 weeks of MCD feeding, fat cells accumulated in the liver of the model group, and inflammatory cell infiltration was occasionally seen. After treatment with obeticholic acid, fat cell accumulation and inflammatory cell infiltration were more significant. Pathological scores showed that after MCD feeding, the pathological score of the model group was around 2, and the score increased after obeticholic acid treatment, while the pathological condition was alleviated to a certain extent after compound treatment (Table 13).

[0158] Table 13: Pathological scoring results

[0159]

[0160] 3.4 Conclusion: After 4 weeks of MCD feeding, mice induced an increase in AST, ALT and lipids in the blood, promoted the accumulation of fat in the liver and the formation of inflammatory foci, and modeled various indicators characteristic of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

[0161] The compounds provided by the present invention, especially TM-01 and TM-09, have a significant effect on reducing the levels of triglycerides and cholesterol in the liver, increase the liver weight and liver-to-body weight ratio of mice, and reduce the pathological score and collagen deposition in the liver to a certain extent. It is preliminarily determined that they have an improving effect on non-alcoholic fatty liver in animals.
