[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. CN202510911509.X, filed on July 2, 2025, entitled "Cyclic Peptide Compounds and Their Applications and Long-Acting Amylin Drugs", the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0002] This invention relates to the field of therapeutic cyclic peptide technology, and more specifically, to cyclic peptide compounds, their applications, and long-acting amylin drugs. Background Technology

[0003] Human amylin is a 37-amino acid peptide hormone secreted and released by pancreatic β-cells, with the amino acid sequence: KCNTATCATQRLANFLVHSSNNFGAILSSTNVGSNTY. Amylin inhibits gastric emptying, controls appetite, and suppresses glucagon secretion, playing a crucial role in maintaining blood glucose levels. Furthermore, amylin promotes a feeling of fullness, preventing overeating and reducing energy intake; it also increases energy metabolism and reduces adipose tissue weight, making it a potential candidate drug for treating metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes. These metabolic regulatory functions of amylin are mediated by amylin receptors (AMYRS). Amylin receptors are dimer complexes formed by calcitonin receptors (CTRs) and receptor-modifying proteins (RAMPs).

[0004] However, the physicochemical properties of human amylin make it difficult to use as a drug. First, natural amylin is rapidly degraded by enzymes in the body and is quickly filtered and cleared by the kidneys, with an extremely short half-life of less than one hour. Therefore, patients need to administer the medication frequently during treatment, resulting in low adherence. Second, it is chemically unstable at physiological pH and easily precipitates, thus requiring preparation in acidic solutions. More importantly, amylin has a high tendency to fibrosis under physiological conditions, easily misfolding and agglomerating, leading to reduced drug target activity and stability, and even cytotoxicity.

[0005] Pramlintide is the only approved amylin analogue used as a complementary treatment for type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Due to the disulfide bridge (-SS-) formed by cysteine ​​residues at positions 2 and 7 and the deamidation effect of asparagine, prinlintide is unstable at neutral pH and is provided in acidic formulations. Furthermore, prinlintide has a half-life of only 30–50 minutes, requiring two to three injections daily, leading to patient inconvenience and poor adherence.

[0006] Cangrilintide is an investigational, novel, long-acting amylin analogue for the treatment of diabetes and obesity. Compared to human amylin, cangrilintide has amino acids at positions 25, 28, 29, and 37 replaced by proline, which reduces the drug's tendency to form fibrils. Simultaneously, γ-Glu-CO-(CH2) is introduced at position 1 (lysine). 18 The -CO2H side chain prolongs the drug's in vivo half-life to approximately 7 days. However, canagliflozin is unstable at neutral pH, with a stable formulation at pH 4.0, making it incompatible with neutral pH formulations of GLP-1 drugs. This complicates its co-use with these compounds.

[0007] The publicly disclosed amylintide analogue, Petrelintide (ZP8396), replaces the disulfide bridge (-SS-) formed by the cysteine ​​residues at positions 2 and 7 of prinlanpeptide and canagliflozin with a lactam bridge (-CO-NH-) formed by aspartic acid and lysine residues. Simultaneously, the aspartic acid at positions 21 and 22 of human amylintide, which is prone to deamidation, is removed, and N-methylated amino acids are introduced at positions 22 and 24, respectively. These structural modifications reduce the fibrotic tendency of Petrelintide, allowing it to be formulated at or near physiological pH. Petrelintide is administered subcutaneously and has a long in vivo half-life of approximately 10 days. Phase I clinical trials have shown good hypoglycemic and weight-loss efficacy; however, some patients taking therapeutic doses of Petrelintide experienced gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea, constipation, and diarrhea, and one subject discontinued treatment after the third treatment due to moderate nausea and vomiting.

[0008] Despite a global pipeline of 43 amyrin analogues, only prinlantide has been approved for marketing, and most of the compounds in development are in preclinical or Phase I clinical trials. There is significant clinical demand for AMYR-targeted drugs, indicating ample market potential. However, AMYR-targeted drugs such as Cagrilintide and Petrelintide still have serious gastrointestinal side effects, and all single-target amyrin analogues in development are administered subcutaneously. The pain at the injection site and "needle phobia" may reduce patient compliance, making it difficult to achieve ideal therapeutic effects.

[0009] In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0010] The purpose of this invention is to provide cyclic peptide-containing polypeptide compounds, their applications, and long-acting amylin drugs.

[0011] This invention is implemented as follows: In a first aspect, the present invention provides a polypeptide compound containing a cyclic peptide, selected from compounds shown in the following structural formulas or their chiral isomers, tautomers, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, esters, or amides:

[0012] Wherein, (Lactm bridge:Asp3-Lys8) means: an intramolecular lactam bridge formed between the side chain of the third amino acid Asp, counting from the R1 end, and the eighth amino acid Lys residue; R1 indicates R2 is independently selected from any one of carboxyl, carboxylic acid ester, tetrazolium, phosphoric acid, phosphate ester, sulfonic acid, and sulfonate groups; n is any integer from 10 to 24; X 15 X 16 X 17 X 22 X 23 X 24 X 25 X 26 and X 28 Each amino acid was selected independently.

[0013] Secondly, the present invention provides a long-acting amylin drug comprising a polypeptide compound containing a cyclic peptide as described in any of the foregoing embodiments.

[0014] Thirdly, the present invention provides the use of the cyclic peptide-containing polypeptide compound described in any of the foregoing embodiments in the preparation of a medicament for the prevention or treatment of any of the following diseases, said diseases including obesity, diabetes, insulin resistance syndrome, sleep apnea, obesity-induced cartilage degeneration and osteoarthritis, cardiovascular disease, macrovascular disease, microvascular disease, diabetic cardiomyopathy, coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, stroke, arteriosclerosis, peripheral artery disease, gallbladder disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, Alzheimer's disease, fatty liver disease, diabetic nephropathy, renal failure, hypertension, and heart failure.

[0015] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: The cyclic peptide-containing polypeptide compounds provided in the embodiments of the present invention can be used as amylin-like drugs, and are dual agonist drugs.

Detailed Implementation

[0016] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. Where specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer shall apply. Reagents or instruments whose manufacturers are not specified are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially.

[0017] Amylin analogues have the potential to treat metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and hypertension, with as many as 43 amylin analogues currently in clinical trials.

Furthermore, most amylin analogues under development are in preclinical or Phase I clinical trials and have significant gastrointestinal side effects. Therefore, developing amylin analogues with better bioactivity and safety would be a significant improvement to available treatment options. The cyclic peptide-containing polypeptide compound provided in this invention is also an AMYR-targeting compound. It not only possesses the aforementioned efficacy and can treat corresponding diseases, but it can also serve as a long-acting amylin drug, improving patient compliance.

[0036] Furthermore, embodiments of the present invention also provide a method for preparing the above-mentioned cyclic peptide-containing polypeptide compound. This preparation method can refer to existing methods. The embodiments of the present invention provide specific examples. This invention describes the synthesis of peptides via SPPS using a Fmoc-based chemical method on a peptide synthesis column. The Fmoc-protected amino acids used in this method were all purchased from Shanghai Jier Biochemical Co., Ltd., such as: Fmoc-Glu(OtBu)-OH, Fmoc-Glu-OtBu, Fmoc-Arg(Pbf)-OH, Fmoc-Asp(OAll)-OH, Fmoc-Gly-OH, Fmoc- Thr(tBu)-OH, Fmoc-Ala-OH, Fmoc-Lys(Alloc)-OH, Fmoc-Leu-OH, Fmoc-Aad(OtBu)-OH, Fmoc-Phe-OH, Fmoc-α-Me-Phe-OH, Fmoc-α-Me-Leu-OH, Fmoc-Gln(Trt)-OH, Fmoc-Ser(tBu)-OH, Fmoc-N-Me-Gly-OH, Fmoc-N-Me-Ile-OH, Fmoc-Val-OH, Fmoc- Asn(Trt)-OH, Fmoc-Hyp(tBu)-OH, Fmoc-N-Me- Phe -OH, Fmoc-N-Me- Leu -OH, Fmoc-α-Me- Glu(OtBu) -OH, Fmoc-N-Me- Glu(OtBu) -OH, Fmoc-Aib -OH, Fmoc-N-Me-Ser(tBu)-OH, Fmoc-α-Me-Ser(tBu)-OH.

[0037] Couplet: The resin used was Rink Amide-AM Resin crosslinked with 1% DVB from Jiangsu Haipu Functional Materials Co., Ltd., with a mesh size of 100-200 and a degree of substitution of 0.2-0.3 mmol / g. The Fmoc process was employed, with amino acids sequentially condensed and linked from the C-terminus to the N-terminus of the peptide chain. Rink Amide-AM Resin was added to a reaction vessel, DCM was added, and the mixture was stirred and swollen under nitrogen atmosphere. The protective amino acid solution (containing 0.1 M Oxyme) was used to remove the protective layer at 35°C. After the reaction was complete, the mixture was washed and filtered to obtain the resin to be reacted. Fmoc-Hyp(tBu)-OH and Oxyme were dissolved in NMP, and then DIC was added and mixed thoroughly. The activated protective amino acid solution was added to the resin to be reacted, and the mixture was stirred under nitrogen atmosphere at 60°C. After filtration and washing, the reaction was complete, yielding Fmoc. Hyp(tBu) AM Resin. Repeat the above steps, sequentially adding the protecting amino acids to the main chain. Before each subsequent coupling step, remove the Fmoc group using 20% ​​Pip / DMF (containing 0.1M Oxyme). All standard amino acid couplings were performed using a 2-fold molar ratio of Fmoc-protected amino acid, a 3-fold molar ratio of DIC, and a 3-fold molar ratio of HOBt, under nitrogen protection for 2–3 hours. The degree of coupling was detected using ninhydrin colorimetric reagent. In cases where coupling is difficult (e.g., methylated amino acids or other sterically hindered amino acids), increase the coupling time or repeat the coupling steps to achieve a satisfactory coupling level. After synthesis, wash the peptide resin with DCM and then air-dry thoroughly to obtain the peptide resin.

[0038] Lactam cyclization: After assembling the complete peptide sequence, in the DCM, the Asp (OAll) at position 3 and the Lys (Alloc) at position 8 were deprotected using tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(O) and phenylsilane. Subsequently, in the DMF, a lactam bridge was formed between the Asp residue at position 3 and the Lys residue at position 8 using HCTU and DIPEA.

[0039] Cutting: The synthesized dried peptide resin was cleaved at room temperature for 2 hours using a 10-fold volume lysis mixture (TFA:H2O:TIS, 95:2.5:2.5 v / v). The resin was filtered off, and the combined filtrates were treated with 5 fold volume of cold methyl ether (-20°C) to precipitate the crude peptide. The crude peptide / methyl ether suspension was then centrifuged at 3500 rpm for 10 minutes, the supernatant was removed, and the solid was washed twice with methyl ether and dried under vacuum to obtain the crude peptide.

[0040] purification: The crude peptide was dissolved in MQ water containing 40% acetic acid and purified by reversed-phase preparative HPLC (Waters Delta Prep 4000) on a C18 silica column. Elution was performed with MeCN in MQ water containing 0.1% TFA using a gradually increasing gradient. Fractions were analyzed by UPLC. Fractions containing the purified target peptide were combined. The resulting solutions were analyzed (UPLC, LCMS), and the product was aliquoted into glass vials. The vials were capped with a Millipore glass fiber pre-filter. Lyophilization yielded the target compound as a white solid.

[0041] General LCMS method: Mass spectrometry (MS) parameters: Detection instrument: Agilent 6410 triple quadrupole liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry system; Ionization source: +ESI.

[0042] Liquid chromatography parameters: Column: Agilent ZORBAX SB-C18, size: 250×4.6mm, 5μm; Detection wavelength: 195nm; Column temperature: 30℃; Injection volume: 10mL; Flow rate: 1mL / min; Mobile phase A: 0.05% glacial acetic acid; Mobile phase B: acetonitrile.

[0048] Example 1 This invention provides a cyclic polypeptide compound (hereinafter referred to as compound 1 PKWX202505-002), whose structural formula is as follows:

[0049] This invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned polypeptide compound, which is synthesized according to the following synthetic route:

[0050] Specifically, A-1 (0.5 mmol) resin was added to a DCM (15 ml) solution, and the mixture was swelled and stirred under nitrogen for 2 hours, then the solvent was removed. 15 mL of 20% Pip / DMF (containing 0.1 M Oxyme) solution was added to remove the Fmoc protecting group, yielding 1-A2. Fmoc-Hyp(OtBu)-OH (1 mmol) and Oxyme (1.5 mmol) were dissolved in NMP, then DIC (1.5 mmol) was added for activation. 1-A2 was then added, and the mixture was stirred under nitrogen at 60 °C. After filtration and washing, 1-A3 was obtained. 1-A3 underwent amide condensation reactions sequentially with the fully protected amino acid and side chain fragment in the sequence to obtain 1-A4. In DCM solution, 1-B1 (1.35 mmol), HOSu (1.49 mmol), and EDCl·HCl (1.62 mmol) were added. The reaction was observed by TLC and, after completion, DIPEA (1.76 mmol) and compound 1-A4 (1.42 mmol) were added. After the reaction was complete, the mixture was washed and dried to obtain 1-A5. In DCM solution, 1-A5 was deprotected by tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (0.25 mmol) and phenylsilane (1.0 mmol) to remove the Asp group at position 3 and the Lys side chain protecting group at position 8. Subsequently, a lactam bridge was formed between the Asp residue at position 3 and the Lys residue at position 8 using HCTU (0.9 mmol) and DIPEA (2.0 mmol). Following this, hydrogenation was performed to remove the benzyl group, yielding 1-A6. 1-A6 was cleaved at room temperature for 2 hours using a 10-fold volume lysis mixture (trifluoroacetic acid:water:triisopropylsilane, 95:2.5:2.5 v / v). The resin was filtered off and precipitated with methyl ether (-20°C). The precipitate was then centrifuged at 3500 rpm for 10 minutes, the supernatant was removed, and the solid was washed twice with methyl ether and dried under vacuum to obtain crude peptide 1-A7. Crude peptide 1-A7 was purified by reverse-phase chromatography and lyophilized to obtain target compound 1.
