Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of chemical medicine, and in particular to deuterated benzothiophene compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and uses thereof. Background Art

[0002] Innate immunity is the first line of defense against invading pathogens and tissue damage. Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) from pathogens or damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) from the body itself, initiate cascade reactions, and induce the expression of genes such as interferons (IFNs), chemokines, and inflammatory factors. This innate immune response can not only inhibit the proliferation and spread of pathogens in the early stages, but also induce acquired immune responses to ultimately clear the infection. In addition, this innate immune response monitors the occurrence and invasion of tumors. Currently, a variety of PRRs have been discovered, such as membrane-bound toll-like receptors (TLRs), C-type lectinreceptors (CLRs), non-binding intracellular nucleotide-binding oligomerization-domain (NOD)-like receptors (NLRs), retinoic acid-like receptors (RLRs) and cytoplasmic DNA receptors.

[0003] Pathogen DNA and DNA leaked from the nucleus or mitochondria into the cytoplasm are immune stimulatory molecules, and there are many DNA receptors in the cytoplasm, such as absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2), interferon-inducible protein 16 (IFI16), RNA polymerase III and cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS). The STimulator of INterferon Genes (STING) located in the endoplasmic reticulum of the cytoplasm is the convergence point of these DNA receptors, controlling the innate immune response mediated by DNA, an immune stimulatory molecule. Studies have shown that cGAS recognizes double-stranded DNA in the cytoplasm and catalyzes GTP and ATP to generate 2′3′-cGAMP. 2′3′-cGAMP binds to interferon gene-stimulating protein as a second messenger, inducing interferon gene-stimulating protein to dimerize and transfer from the endoplasmic reticulum membrane to the vesicles around the nucleus, recruiting TBK1 and then phosphorylating itself, so that IRF3 is close to interferon gene-stimulating protein. Then, TBK1 phosphorylates IRF3, which transfers to the nucleus to induce the expression of type I interferon (IFN) and other inflammatory factors. Type I interferon promotes the maturation of dendritic cells (DC), selectively stimulates the cross-presentation of antigens, and recruits CD8 + T cells, thereby activating the acquired immune system to kill tumor cells or resist pathogen infection. Therefore, interferon gene-stimulated proteins play an important role in the innate and acquired immune responses in tumors and pathogen infections.

[0004] Given the key role of interferon gene stimulating protein in the body's immune response, the application of interferon gene stimulating protein agonists in the immunotherapy of various diseases has attracted much attention. For example, intratumoral injection of 2′3′-cGAMP leads to tumor cell degeneration in mouse models, and can inhibit the growth of distal tumor cells and induce long-term immune memory. Interferon gene stimulating protein agonists are used in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors to increase the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors. In addition, the body's immune response induced by interferon gene stimulating protein agonists can effectively control viral infections such as influenza A virus, hepatitis B virus, herpes simplex virus and HIV. Therefore, the research and development of interferon gene stimulating protein agonists is of great significance for the immunotherapy of cancer and infectious diseases. However, the interferon gene stimulating protein agonists reported so far are mostly cyclic dinucleotide analogs, but the defects such as metabolic instability in the body, poor membrane permeability, and only intratumoral administration have greatly limited the application of interferon gene stimulating protein agonists. Therefore, the research and development of small molecule agonists of interferon gene stimulating protein is of great significance.

[0005] MSA-2 is the first STING small molecule agonist that can be administered orally, but it requires a higher dose to be effective. Deuterated drugs refer to drugs in which some hydrogen atoms in the drug molecule are replaced with deuterium. Since the shape and volume of deuterium in the drug molecule are similar to those of hydrogen, deuterated drugs generally retain the biological activity and selectivity of the original drug. Since the CD bond is more stable than the CH bond, the CD bond of deuterated drugs is less likely to break during the chemical reaction process, and its half-life will be extended. Since 2000, the deuteration strategy has been widely used in drug research. The present invention adopts the D-generation strategy to optimize the biological activity of MSA-2, significantly improve its pharmacokinetic properties, and reduce the single dosage.

[0006]

[0007] Deuterated drugs refer to drugs in which some hydrogen atoms in the drug molecule are replaced with deuterium. Since the shape and volume of deuterium in the drug molecule are similar to those of hydrogen, deuterated drugs generally retain the biological activity and selectivity of the original drug. The mass of deuterium is twice that of hydrogen, so the vibration and stretching frequency of the CD bond is smaller than that of CH, and the ground state energy is lower. This results in a higher activation energy for the CD bond to break than the CH bond, and the CD bond is less likely to break, making deuterated drugs generally more stable in the body and their half-life longer.

[0008] Due to the complexity of the metabolic process of biological systems, the pharmacokinetic properties of drugs in vivo are affected by many factors and also show corresponding complexity. Compared with the corresponding non-deuterated drugs, the changes in the pharmacokinetic properties of deuterated drugs show great randomness and unpredictability. Deuteration at certain sites not only fails to prolong the half-life, but may shorten it and deteriorate its pharmacokinetic properties; the effect of deuterated molecules on cell activity is even more unpredictable and inconclusive. On the other hand, hydrogen at certain positions on drug molecules is not easy to be deuterated due to steric hindrance and other reasons. Therefore, the deuteration of drugs is not arbitrary, and the effect of deuterated sites on drugs is unpredictable. Summary of the invention

[0039] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to salts of the compounds of the present invention, prepared from compounds having specific substituents discovered by the present invention with relatively nontoxic acids or bases.

Pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts include sodium, potassium, calcium, ammonium, organic amino or magnesium salts or similar salts. When the compounds of the present invention contain relatively basic functional groups, acid addition salts can be obtained by contacting the free form of such compounds with a sufficient amount of acid in a pure solution or a suitable inert solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include inorganic acid salts such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, nitric acid, carbonic acid (forming carbonate or bicarbonate), phosphoric acid (forming phosphate, monohydrogen phosphate, dihydrogen phosphate, sulfuric acid (forming sulfate or bisulfate), hydroiodic acid, phosphorous acid, and the like; and organic acid salts 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. Acids such as tartaric acid and methanesulfonic acid; organic acid salts also include salts of amino acids (such as arginine, etc.), and salts of organic acids such as glucuronic acid. Certain specific compounds of the present invention contain basic and acidic functional groups, and can be converted into any base or acid addition salt. Preferably, the salt is contacted with a base or acid in a conventional manner, and the parent compound is separated, thereby regenerating the free form of the compound. The free form of the compound differs from its various salt forms in certain physical properties, such as different solubility in polar solvents.

[0040] The "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" of the present invention can be synthesized from parent compounds containing acid radicals or bases by conventional chemical methods. In general, such salts are prepared by reacting these compounds in free acid or base form with a stoichiometric amount of an appropriate base or acid in water or an organic solvent or a mixture of the two. In general, non-aqueous media such as ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol or acetonitrile are preferred.

[0041] The term "isomers" refers to compounds that have the same chemical formula but different arrangements of the atoms.

[0042] The term "metabolite" refers to a pharmaceutically active product produced by the in vivo metabolism of a compound of Formula I or a salt thereof. Such a product may be produced, for example, by oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis, amidation, deamidation, esterification, deesterification, glucuronidation, enzymatic cleavage, etc. of the administered compound. Therefore, the present invention includes metabolites of the compounds of the present invention, including compounds produced by a process of contacting a compound of the present invention with a mammal for a period of time sufficient to obtain a metabolite thereof.

[0043] Metabolites are typically identified by preparing radiolabeled isotopes of the compounds of the invention, administering them parenterally to animals, such as rats, mice, guinea pigs, monkeys, or humans, at detectable doses (e.g., greater than about 0.5 mg / kg), allowing sufficient time for metabolism to occur (typically about 30 seconds to 30 hours), and isolating the conversion products from urine, blood, or other biological samples. These products are easily isolated because they are labeled (others are isolated by using antibodies that can bind to antigenic epitopes present in the metabolites). The metabolite structure is determined in a conventional manner, for example, by MS, LC / MS or NMR analysis. Generally, the analysis of metabolites is performed in the same manner as conventional drug metabolism studies known to those skilled in the art. As long as the metabolite products are not otherwise not found in vivo, they can be used in assays for therapeutic dosing of the compounds of the invention. The compounds of the invention may contain non-natural proportions of atomic isotopes on one or more of the atoms that make up the compound. For example, compounds may be labeled with radioisotopes, such as tritium ( 3 H), iodine-125( 125 I) or C-14( 14 C) All isotopic variations of the compounds of the present invention, whether radioactive or not, are included within the scope of the present invention.

[0044] In addition to the form of salts, the compounds provided by the present invention also exist in the form of prodrugs. The prodrugs of the compounds described herein are easily chemically changed under physiological conditions to be converted into the compounds of the present invention. Any compound that can be converted in vivo to provide a bioactive substance (i.e., a compound shown in Formula I) is a prodrug within the scope and spirit of the present invention. For example, a carboxyl-containing compound can form a physiologically hydrolyzable ester, which acts as a prodrug by being hydrolyzed in vivo to obtain the compound shown in Formula I itself. The prodrug is preferably administered orally, because hydrolysis occurs mainly under the influence of digestive enzymes in many cases. When the ester itself is active or hydrolysis occurs in the blood, parenteral administration can be used.

[0045] When the linking group is listed without indicating its linking direction, it is linked in the same direction as reading from left to right.

[0046] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, according to the conventions used in the art, the structural formulas used in this application to describe groups It means that the corresponding group is connected with other fragments and groups in the compound shown in formula I through this site.

[0047] Without violating the common sense in the art, the above-mentioned preferred conditions can be arbitrarily combined to obtain the preferred embodiments of the present invention.

[0048] The positive and progressive effects of the present invention are:

[0049] The compounds of the present invention overcome the defects of the existing interferon gene stimulating protein small molecule agonists, the poor drugability of nucleotide interferon gene stimulating protein agonists, etc. The blood drug concentration of the compounds of the present invention is increased, the half-life is prolonged, and the single dosage is reduced. The compounds of the present invention have good agonistic activity on interferon gene stimulating protein, and have good therapeutic effects on tumors and infectious diseases.
