Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical chemical synthesis and relates to a novel preparation method of the FGFR2 inhibitor Lirafugratinib (RLY-4008). Background Technology

[0002] Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a rare malignant tumor with a poor prognosis. Its malignancy is comparable to that of pancreatic cancer, widely considered the most dangerous cancer. Even with timely surgical treatment, the 3-year recurrence rate is as high as 85%, and the 5-year survival rate is only about 5%; for patients with unresectable cancer, the 5-year survival rate was once as low as 0. FGFR2 is a receptor tyrosine kinase, one of the four members of the FGFR family, a group of closely related proteins with highly similar protein sequences and properties. Mutations frequently occur in many cancers, including intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (10%-16%), endometrial cancer (7.5%-11%), and adenocarcinoma of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction (3.7%-7.9%). Oncogenic activation of FGFR2 can occur through gene amplification, activating mutations, or chromosomal rearrangements; the incidence of FGFR2 fusion / rearrangement in cholangiocarcinoma is 10-15%. Previous non-selective FGFR inhibitors have validated FGFR as a therapeutic target for CCA by achieving objective response rates (ORR) of 20-40% and duration of response (DOR) of 5-9 months. However, second-line treatment with pan-FGFR inhibitors (Infigratinib, Pemigatinib, Futibatinib) often results in adverse reactions such as hyperphosphatemia and diarrhea, and FGFR2 resistance mutations may also occur, requiring multiple dose adjustments and making it difficult to achieve the optimal drug dose. Selective inhibition of FGFR2 is expected to provide superior target coverage, thereby significantly improving drug efficacy.

[0003] Despite extensive research in structure-based drug design, selective targeting of FGFR2 still involves unknown kinase domains similar to FGFR1, FGFR3, and FGFR4. RLY-4008 is the first highly selective and potent FGFR2 inhibitor, selectively targeting driver alterations and FGFR resistance mutations based on unique conformational kinetics, exhibiting enhanced sensitivity and in vivo activity. Phase I / II clinical trial results for RLY-4008 showed an 88% efficacy rate in treating cholangiocarcinoma, without demonstrating limitations due to non-target toxicities such as hyperphosphatemia (FGFR1) and diarrhea (FGFR4). These preliminary data suggest that RLY-4008 has a manageable safety profile and can promote tumor regression in various FGFR2 mutations and tumor types. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the above, the preparation of the FGFR2 inhibitor Lirafugratinib (RLY-4008) is very important. The inventors have solved the technical problems of this compound through experimental research, and the reaction route is as follows:
