Abstract
Description
Preparation method and use of chemokine receptor modulator Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medicine and relates to a compound for regulating the activity of a chemokine receptor, a preparation method and use thereof. Background Art
[0002] The successful operation of the host defense system is the result of several processes working together to eliminate foreign pathogens. A coordinated innate and adaptive immune response is required, and many secreted factors and cell-related factors have been identified as important mediators for coordinating and regulating these two host defense arms. Chemokines are a family of cytokines that act as chemoattractants to guide the migration of leukocytes. They are secreted by a variety of cells and can be functionally divided into two categories: hemostatic chemokines and inflammatory chemokines. Hemostatic chemokines are produced in certain tissues and control cells of the immune system during the immune surveillance process, such as directing lymphocytes to lymph nodes so that they can screen for invading pathogens. Inflammatory chemokines are released by cells in response to pathological events (e.g., proinflammatory stimuli such as IL-1 or viruses). They primarily act as chemoattractants as part of the inflammatory response and serve to guide cells of the innate and adaptive immune systems to sites of inflammation. CC chemokine receptor type 4 (CCR4) plays a role in the progression of many inflammation-related and other diseases. Identifying compounds that modulate CCR4 function is an ongoing challenge.
[0003] Cancer is a disease in which cells exhibit dysregulated replication and growth. Recent cancer models implicate the immune system in the development and progression of cancer. While significant progress has been made in understanding the biological basis of cancer, cancer remains a leading cause of death.
[0004] CCR4 was first identified by Power et al. (J.Biol.Chem.270:19495-19500) and is a G protein-coupled receptor that can bind to chemokines. CC chemokines are chemotactic agents for the Th2 subset of peripheral blood T cells, dendritic cells, and natural killer cells. Chemokines include CCL22 (also known as macrophage-derived chemokine, MDC). And CCL17 (also known as thymus and activation-regulated chemokine, TARC), which are also produced by monocytes and dendritic cells.
[0005] CCR4 is involved in immune regulatory processes such as cell homing to specific tissues, including the homing of T lymphocytes to the skin and lungs (see, for example: Campbell et al., 1999, Nature, 400:776-780; Gonzalo et al., 1999, J. Immunol, 163:403-411; Lloyd et al., 2000, J. Exp. Med, 191:265-273; Kawasaki et al., 2000, J. Immunol. 166:2055-2062). Modulators of CCR4 activity have been described, for example, in WO2013 / 082490.
[0006] Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) is considered a key regulator of adaptive immune responses, particularly in maintaining and maintaining the components of burst T cell responses. Therefore, CTLA-4, as an immune checkpoint inhibitor, is considered a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of cancer and inflammation. CTLA-4 modulators have been described, for example, in WO2018 / 035710.
[0007] Programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) is a transmembrane receptor protein that negatively regulates T cell function through interaction with its two natural ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2. Like CTLA4, PD-1 is a major regulator of the immune system and is also considered an immune checkpoint inhibitor. PD-1 / PD-L1 modulators have been described, for example, in WO2018 / 005374.
[0008] Given the roles of cell homing and immune checkpoint pathways in cancer development and progression, there is a need to develop combination therapies that can improve cancer treatment.

[0074] The terms "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" and "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" have synonymous meanings and include salts of the active compounds that are prepared with relatively nontoxic acids or bases, depending on the particular substituents found on the compounds described herein. When compounds of the present invention contain relatively acidic functionalities, base addition salts can be obtained by contacting the neutral form of such compounds with a sufficient amount of the desired base, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts include sodium, potassium, calcium, ammonium, organic amino, or magnesium salts, or similar salts. When compounds of the present invention contain relatively basic functionalities, acid addition salts can be obtained by contacting the neutral form of such compounds with a sufficient amount of the desired acid, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include those derived from inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, nitric acid, carbonic acid, monohydrogencarbonic acid, phosphoric acid, monohydrogenphosphoric acid, dihydrogenphosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, monohydrogensulfuric acid, hydroiodic acid or phosphorous acid, and salts derived from relatively non-toxic organic acids such as acetic acid, propionic acid, isobutyric acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, benzoic acid, succinic acid, suberic acid, fumaric acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, phthalic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, oxalic acid, methanesulfonic acid, and the like. Also included are salts of amino acids such as arginine salts, and salts of organic acids such as glucuronic acid or galacturonic acid (see, for example, Berge et al., "Pharmaceutical Salts", Journal of Pharmaceutical Science, 1977, 66, 1-19). Certain specific compounds of the present invention contain both basic and acidic functional groups, which allow the compounds to be converted into either base or acid addition salts.
[0075] "Pharmaceutically acceptable excipients" and "pharmaceutically acceptable carriers" refer to substances that facilitate administration of a compound to an individual and absorption by the individual and that may be included in the compositions of the present invention without causing significant adverse toxic effects to the patient. Non-limiting examples of pharmaceutically acceptable excipients include water, NaCl, physiological saline solution, lactated Ringer's, ordinary sucrose, ordinary glucose, binders, fillers, disintegrants, lubricants, coatings, sweeteners, flavorings, salt solutions (such as Ringer's solution), alcohols, oils, gelatin, carbohydrates (such as lactose, amylose or starch), fatty acid esters, hydroxymethylcellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and pigments. Such formulations can be sterilized and, if desired, can be mixed with adjuvants that do not adversely react with the compounds of the present invention, such as lubricants, preservatives, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifiers, salts for affecting osmotic pressure, buffers, coloring and / or aromatic substances, and the like. Those skilled in the art will recognize that pharmaceutical excipients are useful in the present invention.
[0076] The term "treating" refers to any marker of successful treatment or improvement of an injury, disease, pathology, or condition, including any objective or subjective parameter, such as alleviation of symptoms; remission; reduction or rendering the injury, pathology, or condition more tolerable to the patient; slowing the rate of degeneration or decline; rendering the degenerative endpoint less debilitating; and improvement of the patient's physical or mental well-being. Treatment or improvement of symptoms can be based on objective or subjective parameters, including the results of a physical examination, neuropsychiatric examination, and / or psychiatric evaluation. The term "treating" and variations thereof may include preventing an injury, pathology, condition, or disease. In embodiments, treatment is prophylaxis. In embodiments, treatment does not include prophylaxis.
[0077] As used herein, "treatment" (and as is known in the art) also broadly includes any method that can achieve a beneficial or desired result (including a clinical result) in an individual's condition. Favorable or desired clinical results include, but are not limited to, alleviation or improvement of one or more symptoms or symptoms, reduction in the extent of the disease, stabilization of the disease state (i.e., not worsening), prevention of disease transmission or spread, delay or slowing of disease progression, improvement or palliation of the disease state, reduction of disease recurrence, and remission, whether partial or complete and whether detectable or undetectable. In other words, "treatment" as used herein includes any cure, improvement, or prevention of a disease. Treatment can prevent the disease from occurring; inhibit the spread of the disease; alleviate the symptoms of the disease, completely or partially remove the underlying cause of the disease, shorten the duration of the disease, or a combination of these events.
[0078] "Treatment" includes prophylactic treatment. Treatment methods include administering to a subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound described herein. The administration step may include a single administration or may include a series of administrations. The length of the treatment period depends on a variety of factors, such as the severity of the condition, the patient's age, the concentration of the compound, the activity of the composition used for treatment, and combinations thereof. It should also be understood that the effective amount of the agent used for treatment or prevention may increase or decrease over the course of a particular treatment or prevention regimen. Changes in dosage can be obtained and become apparent through standard diagnostic assays known in the art. In some instances, long-term administration may be required. For example, the composition is administered to the subject in an amount and for a duration sufficient to treat the patient.
[0079] The term "prevention" refers to reducing the occurrence of symptoms of a patient's disease. As mentioned above, prevention can be complete (no detectable symptoms) or partial prevention, so that the observed symptoms are less than the symptoms that would occur if not treated. In embodiments, prevention refers to slowing down the progression of a disease, illness or condition, or inhibiting its progression to a harmful or other undesirable state. "Patient" or "individual in need" refers to a living organism suffering from or susceptible to a disease or condition that can be treated by administering a pharmaceutical composition provided herein. Non-limiting examples include people, other mammals, cattle, rats, mice, dogs, monkeys, goats, sheep, cows, deer and other non-mammals. In some embodiments, the patient is a person.
[0080] An "effective amount" is an amount that is sufficient to achieve the specified purpose of the compound (e.g., to achieve the effect of its administration, treat a disease, reduce enzyme activity, increase enzyme activity, reduce a signaling pathway, or alleviate one or more symptoms of a disease or condition) relative to the absence of the compound. An example of an "effective amount" is an amount that is sufficient to promote the treatment, prevention, or alleviation of one or more symptoms of a disease, also referred to as a "therapeutically effective amount." "Relief" of one or more symptoms (and grammatical equivalents of this phrase) means reducing the severity or frequency of the symptoms, or eliminating the symptoms. A "prophylactically effective amount" of a drug is an amount that, when administered to an individual, has the expected prophylactic effect, such as preventing or delaying the onset (or recurrence) of an injury, disease, pathology, or condition, or reducing the likelihood of the onset (or recurrence) of an injury, disease, pathology, or condition or its symptoms. A complete prophylactic effect does not necessarily occur by administering one dose, and may only occur after administering a series of doses. Therefore, a prophylactically effective amount may be administered over the course of one or more administrations. As used herein, an "activity-reducing amount" refers to the amount of antagonist required to reduce enzyme activity relative to the absence of the antagonist. As used herein, a "function-disrupting amount" refers to the amount of antagonist required to disrupt the function of an enzyme or protein relative to the absence of the antagonist. The exact amount will depend on the therapeutic goal and will be determined by one skilled in the art using known techniques (see, for example, Lieberman, Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms (Volumes 1-3, 1992); Lloyd, The Art, Science and Technology of Pharmaceutical Compounding (1999); Pickar, Dosage Calculations (1999); and Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 20th ed., 2003, Gennaro, Ed., Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins). A therapeutically effective amount can be determined by measuring relevant physiological effects and can be adjusted based on the individual's condition, dosing regimen, diagnostic assays, and the like. For example, measuring serum levels of a CCR4 inhibitor (or, for example, a metabolite thereof) at a specific time after administration can indicate whether a therapeutically effective amount has been administered. A "CCR4 inhibitor" is a compound (eg, a compound described herein) that reduces CCR4 activity compared to a control (eg, a compound lacking the compound or a compound known to be inactive).
[0081] The term "administration" means oral administration, suppository administration, topical contact, intravenous, parenteral, intraperitoneal, intramuscular, intralesional, intrathecal, intracranial, intranasal or subcutaneous administration, or implanting a sustained-release device, such as a micro-osmotic pump, to an individual. Administered by any route, including parenteral and transmucosal (e.g., oral, sublingual, palatal, gingival, nasal, vaginal, rectal or transdermal). Parenteral administration includes, but is not limited to, intravenous, intramuscular, intraarteriolar, intradermal, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, intraventricular and intracranial. Other modes of delivery include, but are not limited to, the use of liposome formulations, intravenous infusions, transdermal patches, etc. "Combined administration" refers to administering a composition described herein while, just before, or just after administering one or more additional therapies (e.g., anticancer agents, chemotherapy, or treatment of neurodegenerative diseases). The compounds of the present invention can be administered alone or can be administered to a patient in combination. When necessary, the preparation can also be combined with other active substances (e.g., to reduce metabolic degradation). The compositions of the present invention can be delivered transdermally via topical routes and can be formulated as applicators, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, gels, creams, ointments, pastes, jellies, coatings, powders, and aerosols. Oral formulations include tablets, pills, powders, dragees, capsules, liquids, lozenges, cachets, gels, syrups, slurries, suspensions, and the like suitable for patient ingestion. Solid form formulations include powders, tablets, pills, capsules, cachets, suppositories, and dispersible granules.

[0277] Experiment 3: Effects of the compounds of the present invention on hERG channel currents
[0278] 1. Purpose of the experiment
[0279] The effects of the compounds on hERG channel currents were detected by manual patch clamp technique to evaluate the cardiac safety of the compounds of the present invention.
[0280] 2. Experimental Methods
[0281] 2.1 Experimental Materials
[0282] 2.2 Experimental Procedure
[0283] 1) HEK-293 cells stably expressing hERG potassium channel were cultured in DMEM medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum and 0.8 mg / mL G418 at a temperature of 37° C. and a carbon dioxide concentration of 5%.
[0284] 2) Cell passaging: Remove the old culture medium and wash once with PBS, then add 1 mL of TrypLE TM Express solution, incubate at 37°C for approximately 0.5 min. When cells detach from the bottom of the dish, add approximately 5 mL of complete medium preheated at 37°C. Gently pipette the cell suspension to separate aggregated cells. Transfer the cell suspension to a sterile centrifuge tube and centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 min to collect the cells. For expansion or maintenance culture, seed the cells in a 6 cm cell culture dish at a seeding volume of 2.5 × 105 cells per dish (final volume: 5 mL).
[0285] 3) To maintain the electrophysiological activity of cells, the cell density must not exceed 80%.
[0286] 4) Patch clamp assay: cells were stained with TrypLE TM Express cells were isolated and 4 × 10 cells were plated onto coverslips in 24-well plates (final volume: 500 μL). After 18 hours, the assay was performed. The voltage stimulation protocol for whole-cell patch clamp recording of hERG potassium currents was as follows: after whole-cell seal formation, the cell membrane voltage was clamped at -80 mV. The clamping voltage was depolarized from -80 mV to -50 mV for 0.5 s (as a leak current measurement), then stepped to 30 mV for 2.5 s, and then rapidly restored to -50 mV for 4 s to stimulate the hERG channel tail current. Data were collected repeatedly every 10 s to observe the effects of drugs on hERG tail currents. A 0.5 s stimulation at -50 mV was used as a leak current measurement. Experimental data were acquired using an IPA amplifier (Sutter Instrument) and stored in Sutter Patch software.
[0287] When the hERG current recorded by the whole cell is stable, the drug is administered. After each drug concentration is applied for 5 minutes (or the current is stable), the next concentration is detected. One or more concentrations are detected for each test compound. The coverslip with cells is placed in the recording bath in an inverted microscope. The test compound working solution and the external solution without the compound are administered by gravity perfusion from low concentration to high concentration to flow through the recording bath to act on the cells. At the same time, a peristaltic pump is used for liquid replacement during the recording. The current detected in the external solution without the compound for each cell serves as its own control group. At least two cells are used for each concentration and the test is repeated twice independently. All electrophysiological experiments are performed at room temperature.
[0288] 2.3 Data Analysis
[0289] First, the tail current (Peak tail current compound) after each drug concentration was normalized to the tail current of the blank solvent-treated control group (Peak tail current Control) (Normalized) (Peak tail current compound / Peak tail current Control). Then, the inhibition rate corresponding to each drug concentration was calculated (1-(Peak tail current compound / Peak tail current Control). The mean (Mean), standard deviation (SD), and standard error (SE) of the inhibition rate at each concentration were calculated. The data were expressed as Mean ± SE and saved in Excel. Y = 1 / (1 + 10^((LogIC50-X)*HillSlope). The IC of each compound was calculated using the above equation. 50 The concentration-effect curve was fitted nonlinearly, where IC 50 IC is the half inhibitory concentration. 50 Calculations and curve fitting were performed using GraphPad Prism software.
