Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medicine, and specifically relates to a pyrimidone compound, a preparation method thereof, a pharmaceutical composition thereof, and its use in medicine. In particular, the present invention relates to a pyrimidone derivative, a preparation method thereof, a pharmaceutical composition containing the derivative, and its use as an Lp-PLA2 inhibitor for treating neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, diabetic macular edema, or prostate disease. Background Art
[0002] Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) is a member of the phospholipase A2 superfamily (Dennis EA, Cao J, Hsu YH, Magrioti V, Kokotos G. Chem Rev. 2011, 111, 6130-6185). It is mainly secreted by monocytes, macrophages, T lymphocytes and chief cells (Stafforini DM, Elstad MR, McIntyre TM, Zimmerman GA, Prescott SM. J Biol Chem. 1990, 265: 9682-9687; Nakajima K, Murakami M, Yanoshita R, Samejima Y, Karasawa K, Setaka M, Nojima S, Kudo IJ Biol Chem. 1997, 272, 19708-19713). Phosphatidylcholine sn-2 ester is produced during the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and Lp-PLA2 is responsible for hydrolyzing oxidatively modified phosphatidylcholine sn-2 ester, and then producing oxidized fatty acids and lysophosphatidylcholine (LysoPC) (Caslake MJ, Packard CJ, Suckling KE, Holmes SD, Chamberlain P, Macphee CH. Atherosclerosis. 2000, 150, 413-419; MacPhee CH, Moores KE, Boyd HF, Dhanak D, Ife RJ, Leach CA, Leake DS, Milliner KJ, Patterson RA, Suckling KE, Tew DG, Hickey DM. Biochem J. 1999, 338, 479-487). Oxidized fatty acids and LysoPC both play a role in activating macrophages, increasing oxidative stress, affecting T lymphocyte function and inducing inflammatory responses (Quinn MT, Parthasarathy S, Steinberg D. Proc Natl Acad Sci US A. 1988, 85, 2805-2809). LysoPC is reported to induce the release of a variety of cytotoxic inflammatory cytokines (Shi, et al. Atherosclerosis, 2007, 191, 54-62). In addition, LysoPC is also involved in leukocyte activation, induction of apoptosis and mediation of endothelial dysfunction (Wilensky, et al. Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2009, 20, 415-420).
[0003] It has been reported in the literature that plasma Lp-PLA2 levels are associated with cardiovascular disease (Fitzpatrick AL, Irizarry MC, Cushman M, Jenny NS, Chi GC, Koro C. Atherosclerosis. 2014, 235, 384-391), diabetic macular edema (DME) (Staurenghi G, Ye L, Magee MH, Danis RP, Wurzelmann J, Adamson P, McLaughlin MM, Darapladib DMESG. Ophthalmology. 2015, 122, 990-996), and prostate cancer (Bertilsson H, Tessem MB, Flatberg A, Viset T, Gribbestad I, Angelsen A, Halgunset J. Clin Cancer Res. 2012, 18, 3261-3269).
[0004] Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that causes cognitive decline, mood swings, irreversible memory loss, disorientation, language impairment, and loss of self-protection ability (Hardy J, et al. Science 2002, 297, 353-356). Alzheimer's disease usually starts slowly and gradually worsens over time, which is the cause of 60% to 70% of dementia cases and affects about 6% of the population over 65 years old. AD patients will gradually withdraw from their families and society, become increasingly dependent on help, and eventually progress to death. AD is one of the most expensive diseases in developed countries and is also costly in other countries. In particular, as aging becomes an important social issue, these costs will increase dramatically. There is no doubt that AD is a complex disease involving multiple factors. Although the etiology of AD has not been fully elucidated, it is clear that several factors are involved in the occurrence and development of the disease, including aggregated tau protein and Aβ peptide, oxidative stress and neuroinflammation (Echeverria V, Yarkov A, Aliev G. Prog Neurobiol. 2016, 144, 142-157). Current AD drug research and development focuses on targets of Aβ amyloidosis and tau (Chiang K, Koo EH. Annu Rev Pharmacol Toxicol. 2014, 54, 381-405; Awasthi M, Singh S, Pandey VP, Dwivedi UN. J Neurol Sci. 2016, 361, 256-271). However, despite strong preclinical data, the results of late clinical trials have so far failed to demonstrate clinical efficacy. These disappointing results indicate that other neuropathological mechanisms, such as oxidative stress and neuroinflammation, may have to be explored for AD treatment.
[0005] Elevated levels of Lp-PLA2 in plasma increase the risk of dementia, including AD (Van Oijen, et al. Annals of Neurology, 2006, 59, 139). Vascular dementia and mixed dementia, as well as high oxidized LDL levels, have been found in AD patients (Maher-Edwards G, De'Ath J, Barnett C, Lavrov A, Lockhart A, Alzheimer's & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions. 2015, 1, 131-140; Kassner, et al. Current Alzheimer Research, 2008, 5, 358-366; Dildar, et al. Alzheimer Dis Assoc Disord, 24, April-June (2010); Sinem, et al. Current Alzheimer Research, 2010, 7, 463-469). Neuroinflammation and up-regulated inflammatory cytokines have also been found in AD patients (Colangelo, et al. Journal of Neuroscience Research, 2002, 70, 462-473; Wyss-Coray, Nature Medicine, 2006, 12, Sept.).
[0006] Based on all these findings, Lp-PLA2 is a potential target for the treatment of AD, and the clinical results of the Lp-PLA2 inhibitor Rilapladib in AD patients further confirmed this (Maher-Edwards G, De'Ath J, Barnett C, Lavrov A, Lockhart A, Alzheimer's & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions. 2015, 1, 131-140).
[0007] Glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are retinal neurodegenerative diseases. Buschini et al. reported that inflammation, including TNF-α signaling, may play an important role in the pathogenesis of glaucoma and AMD (Buschini, et al. Progress in Neurobiology, 2011, 95, 14-25; Tezel, Progress in Brain Research, vol. 173, ISSN 0079-6123, Chapter 28). In addition, Shi et al. confirmed that Lp-PLA2 inhibitors can block the release of inflammatory cytokines (Shi, et al. Atherosclerosis, 2007, 191, 54-62). The inhibition of Lp-PLA2 is a potential treatment for glaucoma and AMD.
[0008] Many Lp-PLA2 inhibitors have been reported, including β-lactams (Tew DG, Boyd HF, Ashman S, Theobald C, Leach CA. Biochemistry. 1998, 37, 10087-10093), oximes (Jeong TS, Kim MJ, Yu H, Kim HS, Choi JK, Kim SS, Lee WS. Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2005, 15, 1525-1527; Jeong HJ, Park YD, Park HY, Jeong IY, Jeong TS, Lee WS. Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2006, 16, 5576-5579), amides of xanthuric acid (Lin EC, Hu Y, Amantea CM, Pham LM, Cajica J, Okerberg E, Brown HE, Fraser A, Du L, Kohno J Y,Ishiyama J,Kozarich JW,Shreder KR.Bioorg MedChem Lett.2012,22,868-871;Hu Y,Lin EC,Pham LM,Cajica J,Amantea CM,Okerberg E,Brown HE,Fraser A,Du L,Kohno Y,Ishiyama J,Kozarich JW,Shreder KR.Bioorg MedChem Lett.2013,23,1553-1556), and carbamates (Nagano JM, Hsu KL, Whitby LR, NiphakisMJ, Speers AE, Brown SJ, Spicer T, Fernandez-Vega V, Ferguson J, Hodder P, Srinivasan P, Gonzalez TD, Rosen H, Bahnson BJ, Cravatt BF.Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2013, 23, 839-843).
[0009] It is reported that the Lp-PLA2 inhibitor Darapladib is a potential treatment for atherosclerosis and DME (Magrioti V, Kokotos G. Expert Opin Ther Pat. 2013; 23: 333-344). Summary of the invention
[0010] The present invention provides a novel Lp-PLA2 inhibitor, which can be used to treat neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, diabetic macular edema (DME), or prostate diseases.
