CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims the priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 202210956232.9, filed with the China National Intellectual Property Administration on August 10, 2022, and titled with “LONG-ACTING INSULIN COMPOUND”, and the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. FIELD
[0002] The present invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical synthesis, in particular to a long-acting insulin compound. BACKGROUND
[0003] Insulin is a protein hormone secreted by pancreatic p cells in the pancreas under the stimulation of endogenous or exogenous substances such as glucose, lactose, ribose, arginine and glucagon. Insulin is the only hormone in the body that lowers blood sugar and promotes the synthesis of glycogen, fat, and protein. Exogenous insulin is mainly used to treat diabetes.
[0004] Unlike other recombinant protein drugs, insulin, as a hormone that regulates blood sugar, has a very narrow therapeutic window, and its blood concentration must be strictly controlled. If it is too high, hypoglycemia or even shock and death may occur, and if it is too low, hyperglycemia may occur. Therefore, insulin cannot be injected intravenously and can only be slowly released into the blood through subcutaneous injection. In addition, the sugar intake of three meals a day requires insulin regulation during meals, and the basal blood sugar is regulated by basal insulin. Therefore, the physiological insulin curve is extremely complicated, which is the purposes of designing rapid-acting insulin and long-acting insulin.
[0005] Insulin drugs are generally designed into 100IU / ml preparations, and at this concentration, insulin usually forms dimers and then hexamers. After subcutaneous injection of 2023320773 24 Sep 2026 insulin, the hexamer will gradually release dimers and monomers, which enter the blood to take effect. Since insulin takes 4-6 hours to work, which is longer than the mealtime insulin, hypoglycemia is easy to occur 2 hours after a meal. In addition, it acts for too short compared to basal insulin. Protamine can bind with insulin and form a precipitate, which will cause insulin to be slowly dissolved and released after subcutaneous injection, and the action time will be extended to more than ten hours, so that it is generally injected twice a day. Although protamine-insulin has partially solved the problem, it is still far from the insulin secretion curve in the physiological state, and it is determined to be a suspension due to its precipitation properties, for which it is difficult to ensure accurate dose control.
[0006] Insulin glargine from Sanofi has a similar sustained release effect as that of the protamine. The addition of two basic amino acids - arginine at the end of the B chain causes the isoelectric point of insulin glargine to change from 5.4 to 6.7. After subcutaneous injection, the insulin glargine is close to the isoelectric point and forms a precipitate, and it is slowly dissolved and released into the blood. However, the insulin glargine must be made into an acidic preparation to be soluble due to the change in its isoelectric point. The asparagine at A21, which is prone to deamidation, is mutated into glycine, which is also the origin of the name of insulin glargine. The half-life of insulin glargine is 12 hours, the duration of its action is 20-24 hours, and it is injected once a day.
[0007] Novo Nordisk has developed a new generation of long-acting insulin degludec, which was successfully launched in 2013. In insulin degludec, the threonine at position B30 is removed and a 16-carbon fatty acid chain is connected to the lysine at position B29 through a glutamic acid linker. The fatty acid chain can bind to albumin in plasma and extend the half-life of insulin. This mechanism is the same as that of insulin detemir. In addition, by optimizing the ratio of linker, fatty acid chain and zinc ions, insulin degludec is in the form of a double hexamer in the preparation. After subcutaneous injection, phenol diffuses and insulin degludec undergoes conformational changes, rapidly assembling from the double hexamers into a linear multi-hexamer, generally more than several thousand molecules long. The multi-hexamer slowly releases hexamer, dimer, and monomer which will enter the blood to take effect. Through these two mechanisms, the half-life of insulin degludec reaches 24 hours and the duration of action is up to 42 hours. 2023320773 24 Sep 2026
[0008] Although the above-mentioned long-acting insulin achieves the purpose of once-daily administration, it cannot achieve a longer acting time, for example, once-weekly administration. SUMMARY
