Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of pharmaceutical chemistry, and particularly relates to a crystalline form of an RNA m6A regulator, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Hand-foot syndrome (HFS) and hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR) are erythematous skin lesions on the palms and soles, mainly caused by cytotoxic chemotherapy drugs and tumor-targeted drugs. In severe cases, patients may lose the ability to take care of themselves. The main pathological features of hand-foot syndrome and hand-foot skin reaction are vacuolar degeneration of basal keratinocytes, perivascular lymphocyte infiltration in the skin, keratinocyte apoptosis, and skin edema; inflammatory changes, vasodilation, edema, and leukocyte infiltration can be seen under a microscope.
[0003] Drugs that can cause hand-foot syndrome include chemotherapy drugs such as capecitabine, liposomal doxorubicin, cytarabine, docetaxel, vinorelbine, continuous infusion of doxorubicin, gemcitabine, etc.; drugs that can cause hand-foot skin reaction include targeted drugs such as sunitinib (Sutent), sorafenib (Nexavar), imatinib (Gleevec), erlotinib (Tarceva), etc. The World Health Organization (WHO) classifies HFS into 4 grades: grade 1, numbness, paresthesia, or tingling in the hands and feet; grade 2, discomfort when holding objects and walking, painless swelling, or erythema; grade 3, painful erythema, edema of the palms and soles, perionychial erythema, and swelling; grade 4, peeling, ulceration, blistering, and severe pain. Currently, when severe hand-foot syndrome and hand-foot skin reaction occur clinically, the symptoms are often only relieved through topical skin care, and in some cases, the drug needs to be discontinued. The existing treatment methods only relieve the symptoms but do not address the root cause, which severely limits the use of first-line oncology chemotherapy drugs. Therefore, there is a huge unmet medical need. There is a need to develop a drug with good efficacy, few side effects, and low cost for the prevention and treatment of hand-foot syndrome and hand-foot skin reaction to meet the growing global medical needs.
[0004] m6A methylation modification is the most common RNA modification in mammals, which can regulate various signaling pathways and cellular processes (such as growth, development, and diseases, etc.) to play a key biological role (Frye M., et al. Science 2018, 361, 2073 - 2092; Yang C., et al. Cell Death & Disease 2020, 11, 960; Meyer K.D. & Jaffrey S.R. Nature Review Molecular Cell Biology 2014, 15, 313 - 326). The m6A methylation modification of mRNA, miRNA, circRNA, and lncRNA is a dynamic and reversible process. Methyltransferases (such as METTL3, METTL14, and METTL16, etc.) bind methyl groups to RNA, while demethylases (FTO and ALKBH5) can remove the methyl groups on RNA, thus constituting the regulatory basis of m6A. m6A affects processes such as RNA processing, translation, and degradation by recruiting specific binding proteins (such as YTHDF1, YTHDF2, YTHDC1, and IGF2BP, etc.), thereby leading to changes in downstream protein functions and cellular biological behaviors (Hsu P.J., et al. Journal of Biological Chemistry 2019, 294, 19889 - 19895; Yao Y., et al. FASEB Journal 2019, 33, 7529 - 7544).
[0005] There are few currently known direct associations between RNA m6A and skin-related diseases. Mostly, m6A-related methyltransferases or demethylases play roles in skin diseases (especially skin tumors). For example, the mRNA expression levels of METTL3 and ALKBH5 in the tumor tissues of patients with acral melanoma are significantly higher than those in the adjacent tissues, and the mRNA expression level of METTL3 in patients with advanced acral melanoma is significantly higher than that in early-stage patients (Le Zhanghui, Preliminary Study on the Pathogenesis of LncRNA and RNA m6A Methylation in Acral Melanoma, Dissertation, 2019). In the diagnosis of melanoma, the m6A-specific binding proteins YTHDF1 and HNRNPA2B1 can be used as novel biomarkers (Li T.D., et al. Cancer Cell 2020, 20, 239). In terms of keratinocytes, it has only been reported that long-term, low-level arsenic exposure can inhibit selective autophagy caused by m6A demethylase, thereby inducing the occurrence of skin tumors (Cui Y.H., et al. Nature Communications 2021, 12, 2183). In summary, there is currently no method for preventing and treating skin diseases by regulating RNA m6A methylation.

[0185] Example 4: Inhibitory effect of the compound shown in formula (I) on keratinocyte differentiation in a rat hand-foot skin reaction model
[0186] After SD rats (weighing approximately 200 g) were acclimated for one week, they were evenly grouped by weight, with 12 rats in each group. The modeling drugs (sorafenib, erlotinib, afatinib, and osimertinib) were separately dissolved in a solution containing 5% DMSO, 45% PEG400, and 50% H2 In the solution of O, the modeling drug was made up to the required concentration, and the rats were gavaged once a day with the dose shown in Table 3. One hour after gavage, an ointment containing the compound shown in formula (I) with different mass ratios of 0.05 g was evenly applied to the left paw of the rats, while the right paw was used as a self-control and smeared with the blank matrix, and the rats in the blank control group were not smeared with the drug. After applying the drug, the four limbs were fixed for another 2 hours, then the residual drug was wiped off with water, the fixation was released and the rats were allowed to move freely again. The modeling drug and the test compound ointment were both administered once a day. After continuous administration for 30 days, the rats were euthanized, and the skin tissue of the paw plantar was taken, fixed in 10% neutral formaldehyde and cut into 5-μm sections, dehydrated and embedded in paraffin.
[0187] Tissue staining: After dewaxing and rehydrating the skin tissue sections of the rat paw plantar mentioned above, they were stained in Hematoxylin solution for several minutes, washed and then soaked in 1% acidic alcohol until the sections faded to light blue-red. After washing with running water for 5 minutes, they were stained with Eosin for 2 - 3 minutes, washed to remove the excess dye, dehydrated, then made transparent with xylene for several minutes, and sealed with neutral resin. The stratum corneum was observed under an optical microscope, and the thickness of the epidermal stratum corneum was measured using Dmetrix software.
[0188] Immunohistochemical staining: After dewaxing and hydrating the skin tissue sections of the rat paw plantar mentioned above, they were incubated with 3% H 2 O 2 at room temperature for 30 minutes. After antigen retrieval, they were blocked with 10% goat serum for 30 minutes. The KRT1 antibody (Abcam, ab93652) and Loricrin antibody (Abcam, ab183646) were added dropwise and incubated overnight at 4°C. The HRP secondary antibody (ZSGB-BIO, PV-6001) and DAB kit (ZSG-BIO, ZLI9017) were added for color development, counterstained with hematoxylin, washed and sealed with neutral resin. The expression levels of KRT1 and Loricrin were observed under an optical microscope.
[0189] The criteria for determining the successful establishment of the rat model as described above are: (i) symptoms such as erythema, swelling, desquamation, ulcer or blister appear at the paw site; and / or (ii) the thickness of the stratum corneum in tissue staining is significantly higher than that of normal rats; and / or (iii) the markers such as KRT1, KRT5 and Loricrin are significantly increased. The incidence rate is calculated as the proportion of animals in each group that meet the criteria for successful establishment of the model, that is, incidence rate = (number of rats with successful modeling / total number of rats in the group) * 100%.
[0190] As described above, the pathological scoring criteria for tissue staining of rats are as follows: no blisters, score 0; 1 - 3 blisters, score 1; 4 - 6 blisters, score 2; 7 - 9 blisters, score 3; more than 10 blisters, score 4. If the inflammatory area accounts for less than 10% of the total area of the section, score 0; if the inflammatory area accounts for 10 - 25% of the total area of the section, score 1; if the inflammatory area accounts for 25 - 50% of the total area of the section, score 2; if the inflammatory area accounts for 50 - 75% of the total area of the section, score 3; if the inflammatory area accounts for more than 75% of the total area of the section, score 4.

[0192]
[0193]
[0194] As shown in Table 3, sorafenib, erlotinib, afatinib, and osimertinib were respectively administered by gavage once a day to SD rats at doses of 100 mg / kg, 70 mg / kg, 50 mg / kg, and 60 mg / kg, and the success rates of inducing hand - foot skin reaction models were 75%, 83.3%, 66.7%, and 75% respectively. The compound shown in formula (I) can significantly reduce the incidence of hand - foot skin reaction at the drug - applied site at low doses (for example, the mass content of the compound in the ointment is 1%), and can significantly reduce the incidence of hand - foot skin reaction in all paw pads of rats at high mass contents (for example, the mass content of the compound in the ointment is 3% and 10%).
[0195] As Figure 23 shown in the measurement results of the stratum corneum thickness, in the rats successfully modeled with sorafenib, erlotinib, afatinib, and osimertinib, the stratum corneum thickness of the plantar skin of the paw is significantly higher than that of normal rats. The compound shown in formula (I) can effectively reduce the stratum corneum thickness of the plantar skin of the paw in the modeled rats.
[0196] As Figure 24As shown in the tissue staining results, the skin toxicity caused by the modeling drug can form blisters under the subcutaneous and epidermal layers of the rat paw sole, with inflammatory cell infiltration in the dermis and hyperemia symptoms in the skin tissue. The compound shown in formula (I) can effectively improve the formation of blisters under the subcutaneous and epidermal layers caused by the above-mentioned modeling drug, inhibit the inflammatory cell infiltration in the dermis, and significantly improve the skin hyperemia phenomenon.
[0197] As Figure 25 shown in the pathological scoring results, the modeling drug can cause blisters to form under the subcutaneous and epidermal layers of the rat paw sole, with inflammatory cell infiltration in the dermis and hyperemia symptoms in the skin tissue. The compound shown in formula (I) can effectively improve the formation of blisters under the subcutaneous and epidermal layers caused by the above-mentioned modeling drug, inhibit the inflammatory cell infiltration in the dermis, and significantly improve the skin hyperemia phenomenon.
[0198] The immunohistochemical staining results also show that in rats successfully modeled with sorafenib, erlotinib, afatinib, and osimertinib, KRT1 and Loricrin are significantly increased in the tissue. However, with the addition of the compound shown in formula (I), KRT1 and Loricrin are significantly decreased in the tissue. In summary, the compound shown in formula (I) can effectively inhibit the differentiation of keratinocytes in vitro and in vivo and has the potential to treat hyperkeratosis-related diseases.
