Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of medicine, and particularly relates to long-acting prodrug derivatives of vortioxetine, pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and their use in the preparation of drugs for preventing or treating diseases related to serotonin receptors. Background Art

[0002] Depression is a common clinical and severe mental illness, a disease with the core symptoms of persistent and severe mood or mood depression and loss of interest, which may be accompanied by mental retardation, sleep disorders, executive function disorders and abnormal social functions, and in severe cases, suicidal thoughts can be seen.

[0003] Vortioxetine is a novel selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and an antidepressant with multiple mechanisms. It not only acts on the 5-HT transporter, but also binds to multiple 5-HT receptors. It is a 5-HT1A agonist, a 5-HT1B partial agonist, and antagonizes 5-HT1D, 5-HT7 and 5-HT3, and exerts its pharmacological effects by binding to the corresponding transporters and receptors.

[0004] The Chinese invention patent with the publication number CN109851573B discloses a vortioxetine amino acid amide compound, its preparation method and application. These amide-modified compounds are stable in gastric juice and intestinal juice, and can reduce the promotion of gastrointestinal motility by vortioxetine, thereby reducing the incidence of adverse reactions such as nausea and vomiting. The PCT invention patent application with the publication number WO2017162536A1 discloses a series of vortioxetine amide derivatives and alkyl carbonate derivatives, aiming to enhance the liposolubility of vortioxetine, improve the blood-brain barrier permeability, and prolong its metabolic time.

[0268] The crystalline solid was administered as an aqueous suspension. Preparation method of the aqueous suspension: Dissolve CMC-Na and Tween 20 in ultrapure water to prepare an aqueous solution containing 1.5% CMC-Na and 0.4% Tween 20. After passing the solid vortioxetine prodrug derivative through a 200-mesh sieve, add an appropriate amount to the above aqueous solution to prepare a suspension of 40 mg / mL (calculated as vortioxetine).
