Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical technology, specifically relating to a triazole derivative, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, malignant tumors remain one of the leading causes of death. While significant progress has been made in cancer treatment, a complete cure for cancer has not yet been achieved. Although currently available anticancer drugs have some efficacy, most are cytotoxic and have serious side effects. Therefore, researching novel targeted anticancer drugs based on effective tumor targets has become a pressing task for medical professionals.

[0003] Cells from most major human solid tumors and hematologic malignancies exhibit anomalous cellular localization of various oncogenes, tumor suppressor proteins, and cell cycle regulators. For example, certain p53 mutations can lead to matrix localization rather than nuclear localization. This results in the loss of normal growth regulation, although tumor suppressor function remains intact. In other tumors, wild-type p53 is isolated in the cytoplasm or rapidly degraded, again leading to loss of its suppressor function. Restoration of proper nuclear localization of functional p53 proteins can normalize some characteristics of tumorigenic cells, restore cancer cell sensitivity to DNA damaging agents, and lead to tumor regression. Similar data were obtained from other tumor suppressor proteins such as forkhead and Sullivar and c-Abl. Furthermore, anomalous localization of some tumor suppressor and growth regulatory proteins may be related to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. CRM1 inhibition can provide particularly meaningful applications in familial syndromes (e.g., Livmerniosis syndrome caused by a p53 allele deletion, BRCA1 or BRCA2 cancer syndromes) in which specific tumor suppressor proteins (TSPs) are cleared or have dysfunction, and in which the increase in TSP levels achieved by the administration of a systemic (or local) CRM1 inhibitor can help restore normal tumor suppressor function.

[0004] Specific proteins and RNAs are imported into and exported from the cell nucleus by specific transport molecules. If they import molecules into the nucleus, they are classified as importing proteins; if they export molecules, they are classified as exporting proteins. Proteins imported into or exported from the nucleus contain nuclear import localization (NLS) or nuclear export (NES) sequences, enabling them to interact with associated transport factors. Chromosomal region-stabilizing protein 1 (CRM1), also known as exporting protein-1 or Xpol, is a major exporting protein. Inhibitors of CRM1 block the nuclear export of inhibitory proteins and growth regulators such as p53, c-Ab1, p21, p27, pRB, BRCA1, IkB, ICP27, E2F4, KLF5, YAP1, ZAP, KIF5, HDAC4, HDAC5, or forkhead proteins (e.g., FOXO3a), which are associated with gene expression, cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and phenotypic inheritance. Results have shown that CRM1 inhibitors can induce apoptosis in cancer cells, even in the presence of activating or growth-activating signals, without affecting normal (untransformed) cells. Most functional studies on CRM1 have used the natural product lepromycin B (LMB). Lepromycin itself is highly toxic to tumor cells, but its significant gastrointestinal toxicity makes it difficult to use clinically. Derivatives of LMB to improve drug-like properties can yield compounds that retain antitumor activity and are better tolerated in animal tumor models. Therefore, nuclear export inhibitors may have beneficial effects on tumor-related disorders and other proliferative disorders. However, to date, small-molecule drug-like CRM1 inhibitors for in vitro and in vivo use still have certain limitations.

[0005] In addition to tumor suppressor proteins, CRM1 also exports several key proteins associated with many inflammatory processes. These proteins include IkB, NF-κB, Cox-2, RXRa, Common, HIFI, HMGBI, FOXO, and FOXP. The nuclear factor xB (NF-κB / rel) family of transcriptional activators, named for their ability to induce immunoglobulin x gene expression, regulates the mRNM expression of various genes related to inflammation, proliferation, immunity, and cell survival. In its basic form, an NF-κB protein called IkB binds to NF-κB in the nucleus, and the IkB-NF-κB complex inactivates NF-κB transcription. In response to inflammatory stimuli, IkB dissociates from the IkBNF-κB complex, releasing NF-κB and restoring its potential transcriptional activity. Many signals that activate NF-κB achieve this by targeting IkB proteolysis (IkB phosphorylation can "label" it for ubiquitination and then proteolysis). The nuclear IkBa-NF-κB complex can be exported to the cytoplasm by CRM1, where it dissociates, thereby reactivating NF-κB. Ubiquitinated IkB can also dissociate from the NF-κB complex, restoring NF-κB transcriptional activity. Inhibition of CRM1-induced export via IMB in human neutrophils and macrophage-like cells (U937) not only leads to the accumulation of transcriptionally inactive nuclear IkBa-NF-κB complexes but also prevents initial NF-κB activation, even upon cellular stimulation. In a separate study, treatment with LMB in lung capillary microvascular endothelial cells inhibited IL-1β-induced F-κB DNA binding (the first step in NF-κB transcriptional activation), IL-8 expression, and intercellular adhesion molecule expression. COMMD1 is another nuclear inhibitor of the transcriptional activity of both NF-κB and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF1). Blocking COMMD1 nuclear export by inhibiting CRM1 leads to increased inhibition of the transcriptional activity of both NF-κB and HIF1.

[0006] CRM1 also mediates retinoid X receptor α (RXRa) transport. RXRa is highly expressed in the liver and plays a central role in regulating bile acid, cholesterol, fatty acid, steroid, and xenobiotic metabolism, as well as homeostasis. During hepatitis, nuclear RXRa levels are significantly reduced, primarily due to inflammation-mediated nuclear export of RXRa via CRM1. In human liver-derived cells, LepB can prevent L-1B-induced increases in cytoplasmic RXRa levels.

[0007] The role of CRM1-mediated nuclear output in NF-κB, HIF-1, and RXRa signaling suggests that blocking nuclear output may have potential benefits for many inflammatory processes across multiple tissues and organs, including the vascular system (vasculitis, arteritis, polymyalgia rheumatica, atherosclerosis), skin diseases, and rheumatic diseases (rheumatoid arthritis and related arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, spondyloid arthropathy, nodular arthropathy, systemic lupus erythematosus, mixed connective tissue disease, inflammatory syndromes, dermatomyositis, inclusion body myositis, undifferentiated connective tissue disease, Sjögren's syndrome, scleroderma, and overlap syndromes, etc.).

[0008] Inhibition of CRM1 can affect gene expression by inhibiting the activation of a series of transcription factors such as ICP27, E2F4, KL5, YAP1, and ZAP.

[0009] Inhibition of CRM1 has potential therapeutic effects on many dermatological syndromes, including inflammatory skin diseases (atopic, allergic dermatitis, chemical dermatitis, psoriasis), sun damage (UV / UV damage), and infections. The most well-studied CRM1 inhibition using LMB showed minimal effect on normal keratinocytes and exhibited anti-inflammatory activity against keratinocytes stimulated by UV, TNFα, or other inflammatory factors. Inhibition of CRM1 also upregulates the activity of NRF2 (nuclear factor 2-related factor 2), which protects keratinocytes from chlorination damage. LMB induces apoptosis in keratinocytes infected with pathogenic human papillomavirus (PV) strains such as IPV16, but does not induce apoptosis in uninfected keratinocytes.

[0010] CRM1 also mediates the transport of key neuroprotective proteins that may be useful in neurodegenerative diseases including Parkinson's disease (PD), Alzheimer's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). For example, (1) forced nuclear arrest of key neuroprotective regulators such as NRF2, docking them in nerve cells, and / or inhibition of NF-κB transcriptional activity by (2) isolating 1XB in the nucleus of glial cells, CRM1 inhibition can slow or prevent nerve cell death found in these disorders. There is also evidence that abnormal glial cell proliferation is associated with abnormal CRM1 levels or CRM1 function.

[0011] The complete maturation of many viruses also requires complete nuclear export, primarily mediated by CRM1. Viruses involving nuclear export and / or CRM1 itself in their life cycle include human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), adenovirus, simian retrovirus type I, Borna disease virus, influenza virus (common strains as well as HINL and avian HN1 strains), hepatitis B virus (BV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV), human papillomavirus (HPV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSY, Dungeney, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus, yellow fever virus, West Nile virus, herpes simplex virus (SV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), and Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCV).

[0012] The HIV-1 Rev protein, which passes through the nucleolus and shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm, facilitates the export of unspliced ​​and single-spliced ​​HIV transcripts containing Rev response element (RRE) RNA through the CRM1 export pathway. Inhibition of Rev-mediated RA transport using CRM1 inhibitors such as LepB or PKF050-638 can block HIV-1 transcription, suppress the production of new HIV-1 viral particles, and thus reduce HIV-1 levels.

[0013] Dengue virus (DENV) is the pathogen of dengue fever (DF), a common arthropod-borne viral disease, and its more severe and potentially fatal form, dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). DHF appears to be caused by an overactive inflammatory response to DENV, and NS5 is the largest and most conserved protein in DENV. CRM1 regulates the transport of NS5 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, mediating most of NS5's functions. Inhibition of CRM1-mediated NS5 export leads to altered viral dynamics and reduced induction of the inflammatory chemokine interleukin-8 (IL-8), providing a novel avenue for the treatment of DENV and other medically important flaviviruses, including those caused by hepatitis C virus.

[0014] Other virus-encoded RNA-binding proteins that use CRM1 to export cells to the nucleus include HSVI type mesenchymal proteins (P13 / 14 or HUA7), human CMV protein pp65, SARS coronavirus ORF3b protein, and RSV matrix (M) protein.

[0015] Interestingly, many of these diseases are associated with specific types of human cancer, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) attributed to chronic HBV or HCV infection, cervical cancer attributed to HPV, and Merkel cell carcinoma associated with MCV. Therefore, CRM1 inhibitors are beneficial in both the viral infection process and the tumorigenic transformation process induced by these viruses.

[0016] CRM1 controls nuclear localization and thus the activity of various DNA metabolic enzymes, including histone deacetylases (HDAC), histone acetyltransferases (HAT), and histone methyltransferases (HMT).

[0017] CRM1 is also associated with other disorders. Leber's disorder, a genetic disorder characterized by the degeneration of retinal ganglion cells and visual impairment, is associated with the ineffective switching of CRM1. There is also evidence that neurodegenerative disorders are associated with abnormal nuclear transport. Summary of the Invention

[0060]

[0061] Synthesis of (Z)-3-(3-(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)isopropyl acrylate (3)

[0077] II. Cell line inhibitory activity

[0078] 1. Cell cryopreservation

[0079] (1) After harvesting the cells, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 min at room temperature and rinse with PBS.

[0080] (2) Resuspend in 1640 medium containing 7% DMSO and 10% fetal bovine serum.

[0081] (3) Dispense into cryovials, place in a cell cryopreservation box and incubate overnight at -80°C, then store in liquid nitrogen.

[0082] 2. Cell resuscitation and culture:

[0083] (1) Remove the cryovial from the liquid nitrogen tank and gently shake it in 37°C warm water to thaw the cell fluid.

[0084] (2) Transfer to a sterile centrifuge tube, add 1640 culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, and gently pipette to form a suspension.

[0085] (3) Centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 min at room temperature, discard the supernatant, add 10% 1640 culture medium containing fetal bovine serum, and gently pipette to form a suspension.

[0086] (4) Transfer to a culture flask and incubate at 37°C in a saturated humidity incubator with 5% CO2 for 1-2 days, then change the medium.

[0087] 3. Cell passage:

[0088] Discard the original culture medium, rinse once with sterile PBS, add 1 mL of 0.25% trypsin and incubate for about 1 minute. Observe under a microscope. After most cells begin to round out, carefully aspirate the trypsin and add fresh culture medium to stop digestion. Pipe the cells into a uniform cell suspension and transfer them to a cell incubator for continued culture.

[0089] 4. Cytotoxicity test

[0090] (1) 1000 RPMI8226 cells in logarithmic growth phase were added to a 384-well plate at a volume of 18 μL / well and incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 24 h.

[0091] (2) The 10 mM test compound was diluted 10-fold with DMSO, and then diluted 100-fold with serum-free 1640 medium to obtain a working concentration of 10 μM containing 1% DMSO. This was followed by a 2-fold serial dilution with 1% DMSO in serum-free 1640 medium to obtain 10 concentrations. The tenth concentration point served as the solvent control (no drug). 2 μL of the diluted compound was added to each well of the plated cell culture plate to obtain a final concentration of 1000 nM. A 2-fold serial dilution was performed for 10 concentration gradients, with 4 replicates for each concentration. 1% DMSO was used as the solvent control, and KPT-8602 was used as the positive control.

[0092] (3) After incubating at 37℃ for 72h, add 10μL of Cell-Titer detection reagent to each well and then incubate in a cell culture incubator for 10min.

[0093] (4) After vortexing and mixing, run the Cell-Titer program on the microplate reader for detection, and calculate the inhibition percentage and IC5 using GraphPad Prism5. 50 Value (μM).

[0098] III. Pharmacokinetic Results of the Drug in SD Rats

[0099]

[0100] Conclusion: The oral and intravenous half-lives of compound I are longer than those of KPT-8602, especially the oral half-life, which is about twice as long. Moreover, the AUC of compound I in both the intravenous and oral doses is much higher than that of KPT-8602, indicating better pharmacokinetic properties.

[0101] IV. In vivo toxicity test of candidate compound BALB / C

[0102] Twenty-five BALB / c mice were randomly divided into five groups: a solvent control group (Control), a positive control group (KPT-8602, 30 mg / kg, once daily), a group (KPT-8602, 60 mg / kg, once daily), a group (Compound I, 30 mg / kg, once daily), and a group (Compound I, 60 mg / kg, once daily), with five mice in each group. Each group was administered the corresponding concentration of the test substance by gavage at a dose of 3 mL / kg. KPT-8602 and Compound I were administered daily for a total of 21 days.

[0103] Methods for preparing compound solutions:

[0104] 10% sulfobutyl-β-cyclodextrin formulation:

[0105] Weigh 5.0 g of sulfobutyl-β-cyclodextrin powder into a beaker, pipette 50 mL of citrate buffer into the beaker, dissolve and transfer to a container.

[0106] Preparation of compound I:

[0107] Weigh 24 mg of compound I, add 1.6 mL of 20% polyethylene glycol aqueous solution, dissolve thoroughly, then add 6.4 mL of 10% sulfonyl-β-cyclodextrin aqueous solution to obtain a 3 mg / mL solution of compound I. Preparation of KPT-8602:

[0108] Weigh 24 mg of compound KPT-8602, add 1.6 mL of 20% polyethylene glycol aqueous solution, dissolve, and then add 6.4 mL of 10% sulfobutyl-β-cyclodextrin aqueous solution to obtain a 3 mg / mL KPT-8602 test solution.

[0109] The results of changes in mouse body weight after continuous administration are as follows: Figure 1 As shown.

[0110] in conclusion:

[0111] As shown in the figure, two mice in the 60 mg / kg KPT-8602 group died on day 7, and all mice died on day 10. The 30 mg / kg KPT-8602 group showed a significant decrease in body weight. However, the 30 mg / kg and 60 mg / kg compound I groups maintained body weight comparable to the control group after 21 days, demonstrating good safety.
