Abstract
Description
[0001] This application claims the priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 2024102347458 with an application date of March 1, 2024. This application incorporates the entire text of the above-mentioned Chinese patent application by reference. Technical Field
[0002] The present invention belongs to the field of medicine, and particularly relates to pyrano[2,3-d]pyridine compounds, their preparation methods, pharmaceutical compositions and uses. Background Art
[0003] Aldosterone is a core regulatory system for human blood pressure and water-salt balance in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), and aldosterone is a key regulatory molecule downstream of this system. Aldosterone is a steroid hormone (member of the mineralocorticoid family), which promotes the reabsorption of water and sodium in the kidneys by binding to and activating mineralocorticoid receptors (MRs) in the epithelial cells of the distal renal tubules and collecting ducts, while inducing the excretion of potassium and hydrogen ions, maintaining water and electrolyte balance, and participating in maintaining appropriate blood pressure, vascular tone and tissue perfusion. In addition, the latest research shows that aldosterone can also up-regulate the expression of AT1R on vascular smooth muscle cells, change the tension of vascular smooth muscle, the response to vasoconstrictive signals and the arterial wall structure, increase the pressor response of blood vessels to norepinephrine, and cause elevated blood pressure, proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells, thickening of the vascular wall and hyaline degeneration.
[0004] Under normal circumstances, plasma aldosterone concentration is regulated by relevant stimulating factors such as RAAS, blood potassium concentration, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), etc. Elevated aldosterone levels can induce blood pressure disorders, cause inflammation, vascular remodeling and tissue fibrosis related to cardiac metabolic diseases, and ultimately lead to organ function decline, cardiovascular complications, advanced kidney diseases, and increase the risk of death. Therefore, counteracting the harmful effects of excessive aldosterone in patients has been a targeted clinical strategy for many years.
[0005] For cardio-renal system diseases related to aldosterone and its receptors, blocking the effects of aldosterone is an effective treatment method. Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system antagonists (RAS inhibitors) are currently the clinical therapies used to antagonize aldosterone. MRAs (such as spironolactone) inhibit the action of aldosterone by competitively binding to the mineralocorticoid receptor, while RAS inhibitors (such as sartans) indirectly reduce aldosterone levels by blocking the upstream stimulatory effect of angiotensin II. Clinically, on the one hand, MRAs can over-antagonize the receptor effect (the aldosterone receptor can also be activated by estrogen), and there are off-target side effects of androgen receptor antagonism. On the other hand, RAS inhibitors do not completely inhibit excessive aldosterone, and there is a problem of drug resistance clinically. Therefore, specific inhibitors (ASIs) that directly inhibit aldosterone synthase (AS) can completely reduce the production of aldosterone without additional effects and can be used as superior iterative products of MRAs and RAS inhibitors.
[0006] Aldosterone synthase (encoded by the CYP11B2 gene), which controls the synthesis of aldosterone and catalyzes the final step in the synthesis of aldosterone from cholesterol, has been a pharmacological target for treating hypertension for decades. Potassium ions, angiotensin II, leptin, etc. can all activate the production of CYP11B2, and then synthesize aldosterone. Importantly, CYP11B2 is the only enzyme that catalyzes the final oxidation to produce aldosterone and is mainly expressed in the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal gland, and this enzyme is basically not produced in other parts of the body, so off-target effects are not expected to occur.
[0007] Since 93% of the enzymes that produce aldosterone and the enzymes that produce cortisol are the same (CYP11B1 is the cortisol synthase, which is the final enzyme in the cortisol synthesis pathway), this high degree of similarity leads to cross-reaction and inhibition of cortisol synthesis by early aldosterone synthase inhibitors. Therefore, developing a drug that can both inhibit the production of aldosterone and have no effect on cortisol is the current difficulty and pain point.
[0008] LCI699 is the first orally active aldosterone synthase inhibitor to enter clinical trials for the treatment of primary aldosteronism. After oral administration of LCI699, it was found that the aldosterone level in the plasma decreased and the blood pressure decreased. However, LCI699 has poor selectivity for CYP11B2 and CYP11B1 and has a greater inhibitory effect on cortisol synthase, so it brings additional side effects and has to turn to the research and development for the treatment of Cushing's disease. Subsequently, a new generation of highly selective ASI inhibitors has been developed one after another, and currently only a few products have entered the clinic.
[0009] Lorundrostat (Mineralys) is a highly selective aldosterone synthase inhibitor that inhibits aldosterone synthase CYP11B2 and reduces the aldosterone level in the body without inhibiting CYP11B1. Another new drug is Baxdrostat (CinCor Pharma / AstraZeneca). The phase I clinical study of Baxdrostat showed that the inhibitory effect of Baxdrostat on aldosterone synthase is 100 times that on cortisol synthesis, belonging to a highly selective aldosterone synthesis inhibitor, which can dose-dependently reduce the plasma aldosterone level by >70%.
[0010] Although there are already two clinical research products, it is still unclear whether they are ultimately proven safe and effective in large-scale clinical phase III trials. Therefore, highly selective aldosterone synthase inhibitors with better selectivity, higher safety, and better efficacy are still needed by patients. Summary of the Invention
[0011] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a highly selective aldosterone synthase inhibitor with a new structure. The present invention aims to provide a pyrano[2,3 - d]pyridine compound, a preparation method thereof, a pharmaceutical composition, and an application. This type of compound has a strong inhibitory effect on aldosterone synthase but has little effect on cortisol synthase, has high selectivity, and has high safety, and has good application prospects in the prevention and / or treatment of various diseases related to aldosterone.

[0078] Intermediate 1
[0079]
[0080] Step 1
[0081] Compound 1 (30.0 g, 172.42 mmol) was dissolved in acetonitrile (300 mL), and N-iodosuccinimide (46.5 g, 206.90 mmol) was added. After the addition was complete, the reaction mixture was stirred at 80 °C for 2.5 h. TLC (dichloromethane / methanol = 10 / 1, product: Rf = 0.1, starting material: Rf = 0.2) showed that the starting material was completely consumed. The reaction mixture was filtered while hot, rinsed with acetonitrile (200 mL), and the collected solid was dried to obtain compound 2 (45.0 g, 87%) as a white solid.
[0082] LCMS (ESI) m / z: 299.8 [M+H]+.
[0083] Step 2
[0084] Compound 2 (40.0 g, 133.38 mmol) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (400 mL), 3-buten-1-ol (9.85 g, 136.60 mmol) and triphenylphosphine (42.0 g, 160.06 mmol) were added. After the addition was complete, the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 0.5 h, cooled to 0 °C, and diisopropyl azodicarboxylate (29.7 g, 146.72 mmol) was slowly added dropwise. After the addition was complete, the reaction mixture was stirred at 65 °C for 12 h under a nitrogen atmosphere. TLC (petroleum ether / ethyl acetate = 10 / 1, product: Rf = 0.8, starting material: Rf = 0.02) showed that the starting material was completely consumed. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and column chromatography (petroleum ether / ethyl acetate = 20 / 1) gave compound 3 (30.7 g, yield 65%) as a yellow oil.

[0181] Experimental Example 1 Inhibitory Activity of Compounds against hCYP11B2 / hCYP11B1
[0182] 1. Experimental System: G-402 CYP11B2 or CYP11B1 High-Expression Stable Transfectants
[0183] The above high-expression stable transfectants were constructed based on the human adrenal leiomyoma cell line G-402 and obtained by introducing human CYP11B2 (NM_000498.3) and CYP11B1 (NM_000497.4) into the cells using artificial lentiviruses respectively.
[0184] Maintenance Medium: McCoy’s 5A (modified, #16600082, GIBCO) + 10% FBS (GIBCO) + 1 μg / mL puromycin (A1113803, GIBCO).
[0185] Resuscitation and Seeding Medium: McCoy’s 5A (modified, #16600082, GIBCO) + 10% FBS (GIBCO).
[0186] Reaction Medium: DMEM / F12 (#11320033, GIBCO) + 2.5% Activated Carbon-Filtered FBS (S11695, R&D).
[0187] 2. Experimental Procedures:
[0188] Seeding: After cell resuscitation, the cells were cultured in the maintenance medium until they reached the appropriate state, and then seeded at a density of 1×10 4 / 100 μL / well (Uniform cell count) (Uniform cell count) , inoculate a 96-well flat-bottom plate with a seeded plate medium.
[0189] Medium change: After seeding the plate overnight (>12 hours) and the cells adhering to the wall, aspirate and discard the supernatant, add 100 - 150 μL / well of serum-free medium for washing, and after aspirating it clean, add 50 μL / well of reaction medium for use.
[0190] Preparation: Dilute the compound with the reaction medium containing 0.4 μM substrate (the final experimental concentration is 0.2 μM):
[0191] CYP11B2 substrate: 11-deoxycorticosterone (S4243, selleckchem), the final reaction concentration is uniformly 0.2 μM
[0192] CYP11B1 substrate: 11-deoxycortisol (S4775, selleckchem), the final reaction concentration is uniformly 0.2 μM.
[0193] Sample addition: Add the above compound dilution to the cell plate at 50 μL / well, and set background wells and control wells simultaneously.
[0194] Treatment and sample collection: After sample addition, culture in a cell incubator for 16 hours, then centrifuge each cell plate at 450 g for 2 minutes, take 75 μL of supernatant and transfer it to a collection plate for storage at -80 °C for use (or directly detect).
[0195] Detection: Use a homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence kit (Cisbio HTRF kit, Cat. 64ALDPEG, Cat.62CRTPEG) to measure the concentration of aldosterone or cortisol in the supernatant.
[0196] Analysis: Use four-parameter fitting to calculate the corresponding absolute IC50 (Abs IC50) of each compound.
[0197] The test results show that most of the tested compounds (Examples 2, 4, 5, and 8) have similar inhibitory activities against CYP11B2 as the reference Baxdrostat, and Examples 2, 6, and 8 show better selectivity. Unexpectedly, the chiral isomers of the tested compounds do not have inhibitory activity against aldosterone synthase.

[0214] Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics Tests of the Test Substance in Cynomolgus Monkeys in Experimental Example 3
[0215] Select adult cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) with appropriate body weight and age, 1 male and 1 female for the experiment, and the adaptation period is 1 week. On the day of the experiment, the monkeys are individually housed in stainless steel wire cages for testing.
[0216] Oral treatment and ACTH working solution (prepared by dissolving Tetracosactrin (HY-P0060, MCE) in ultrapure water and filtering through a 0.22 μm filter, and diluting with a sterile PBS solution to the required concentration of the working solution) were administered according to the following dosing regimen:
[0217] At T = 0, 2 monkeys in each group were orally administered at a dose of 0.5 mg / kg (the compound was formulated as a suspension with 5% sodium carboxymethylcellulose aqueous solution as the solvent), and the fixed volume of administration was 2 mL / kg;
[0218] At T = +1 hour (i.e., 1 hour after dosing), 14.5 μg / kg of the aforementioned ACTH working solution was intramuscularly injected.
[0219] Sampling and detection: Blood samples (collected in EDTA anticoagulant tubes) were collected before the above oral administration (Pre-dose) and at 0.5 h, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, and 12 h after dosing for measuring the concentration of corticosteroids in plasma. The blood was centrifuged at 10,000 rpm for 15 minutes at 4°C, and then the plasma was separated and stored uniformly at -80°C for further analysis. Aldosterone and cortisol in plasma were detected by electrochemiluminescence using a Roche biochemical analyzer. Meanwhile, part of the plasma (at 0.5 h, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, and 12 h after dosing, and an additional blood sample at 24 h) was taken to determine the pharmacokinetic parameters by LC / MS.
[0220] The detection results of aldosterone are shown in Table 5 and Figure 1 The detection results of cortisol are shown in Table 6 and Figure 2 The experiment showed that the test compound could significantly inhibit aldosterone synthesis and had no effect on cortisol levels.

[0222]
[0223] Table 6 Cortisol concentration in plasma at different time points after dosing
[0224]
[0225] The above experiment was repeated, with the difference that: at T = 0, 2 monkeys in each group were orally administered at a dose of 0.05 mg / kg (the compound was formulated as a suspension with 5% sodium carboxymethylcellulose aqueous solution as the solvent), and the fixed volume of administration was 2 mL / kg;
[0226] The aldosterone detection results are shown in Table 7, and the cortisol detection results are shown in Table 8. The experiment shows that Example 8 can significantly inhibit aldosterone synthesis. The maximum relative change from the baseline after 1 hour of ACTH stimulation in Example 8 is the largest (-51.05). Other test substances, including Example 2, have no effective inhibition of aldosterone synthesis at the administered doses. The effectiveness of Example 8 is beyond expectation. All test substances have no effect on cortisol levels.

[0232] The pharmacokinetic parameters of the compounds are shown in Table 9. Compared with the reference Baxdrostat, the peak time and half-life of the test compounds are similar, while the maximum plasma concentration (C max max) and plasma exposure (AUC) are higher, 2-3 times higher than the reference, showing good pharmacokinetic properties. Unexpectedly, Example 8 has higher (C max max) and (AUC) at the same dose, which are respectively twice that of Example 2 and three times that of baxdrostat.
