Description
Polypeptides with modified structures and their applications Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a series of polypeptides with modified structures and applications thereof. Specifically, the present invention relates to a series of polypeptides with stapled structures, a pharmaceutical composition containing the series of polypeptides and applications thereof in treating metabolic diseases. Background Art
[0002] Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and insulinotropic peptide (GIP) are incretins, and glucagon (GCG) is secreted by pancreatic α-cells. The aforementioned substances can directly or indirectly affect the body's glucose metabolism and / or lipid metabolism. Therefore, compounds that act on GLP-1, GIP, and GCG have the prospect of being developed into drugs for the treatment of metabolic diseases. For example, the compounds (peptides) that act on GLP-1, exenatide, liraglutide, and semaglutide, which are already on the market, are drugs for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) and / or obesity.
[0003] However, compounds that target a single GLP-1, GIP, or GCG often have deficiencies in their therapeutic areas, therapeutic effects, and metabolic behavior, which in turn impact their drugability or post-market clinical applications. Therefore, efforts are underway to develop compounds that target multiple targets, hoping to simultaneously intervene through multiple mechanisms of action and achieve better clinical outcomes. Tirzepatide, a dual GLP-1 / GIP agonist developed by Eli Lilly, has demonstrated superior efficacy to semaglutide in head-to-head clinical trials and has been approved for marketing. Another example is LY3437943, a triple GLP-1 / GIP / GCG agonist developed by Eli Lilly, which has also demonstrated promising clinical efficacy in clinical studies and holds great promise for development.
[0004] GLP-1R / GIPR / GCGR multiple agonists can activate the molecular mechanisms of blood glucose regulatory receptors, affecting food intake and satiety through different mechanisms, and play a role in maintaining weight homeostasis. Research has also found that because GLP-1 receptor agonists can stimulate the GLP-1 receptor to promote incretin production, resulting in excellent blood glucose lowering and weight loss effects, they can also treat NASH (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis) through multi-pathway synergistic effects, suggesting that compounds acting on this target or multiple targets have the potential to be developed into drugs for the prevention and / or treatment of a range of specific diseases related to abnormal glucose metabolism and / or lipid metabolism.
[0005] Summary of the Invention

[0550] Definition and Description
[0551] Unless otherwise indicated, the following terms and phrases used herein are intended to have the following meanings. The absence of a specific definition for a particular term or phrase should not be construed as indefinite or unclear, but rather should be understood in accordance with its ordinary meaning. When a trade name appears herein, it is intended to refer to the corresponding commercial product or its active ingredient.
[0552] Unless otherwise specified, the “polypeptide”, “peptide” and “polypeptide compound” mentioned in the present invention can be understood by those skilled in the art to have the same meaning in combination with the context.
[0553] Unless otherwise specified, the "polypeptide sequence" and "peptide chain" mentioned in the present invention can be understood by those skilled in the art to have the same meaning in combination with the context.
[0554] Unless otherwise specified, the “staple”, “staple”, “staple assembly” and “staple” mentioned in the present invention can be understood by those skilled in the art to have the same meaning in combination with the context.
[0555] Unless otherwise specified, the example numbers of the compounds in the present invention remain consistent with the order of the compound numbers, that is, the compounds indicated by "Example 1" and "Compound 1" have the same structure.
[0556] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable" as used herein refers to those compounds, materials, compositions and / or dosage forms which, within the scope of sound medical judgment, are suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human beings and animals without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response or other problems or complications, commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio.
[0557] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to salts of the compounds of the present invention, prepared by reacting the compounds of the present invention with relatively nontoxic acids or bases. When the compounds of the present invention contain relatively acidic functional groups, base addition salts can be obtained by contacting the compounds with a sufficient amount of base in neat solution or in a suitable inert solvent. Pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts include sodium, potassium, calcium, ammonium, organic amine, or magnesium salts, or similar salts. When the compounds of the present invention contain relatively basic functional groups, acid addition salts can be obtained by contacting the compounds with a sufficient amount of acid in neat solution or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include inorganic acid salts such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, nitric acid, carbonic acid, bicarbonate, phosphoric acid, monohydrogen phosphate, dihydrogen phosphate, sulfuric acid, bisulfate, hydroiodic acid, phosphorous acid, and the like; and organic acid salts such as acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, propionic acid, isobutyric acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, benzoic acid, succinic acid, suberic acid, fumaric acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, phthalic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, methanesulfonic acid, and pamoic acid, as well as salts of amino acids (such as arginine) and organic acids such as glucuronic acid. Certain specific compounds of the present invention contain both basic and acidic functional groups and can be converted into either base or acid addition salts.
[0558] Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the present invention can be synthesized by conventional chemical methods from parent compounds containing acid radicals or bases. Generally, such salts are prepared by reacting these compounds in free acid or base form with a stoichiometric amount of a suitable base or acid in water or an organic solvent or a mixture of the two.
[0559] "Amino acid" refers to naturally occurring and synthetic amino acids, as well as amino acid analogs and amino acid mimetics that function similarly to naturally occurring amino acids. Naturally occurring amino acids are those encoded by the genetic code, as well as those that are later modified, for example, hydroxyproline, γ-carboxyglutamate, and O-phosphoserine. Amino acid analogs refer to compounds that have the same basic chemical structure (e.g., an alpha carbon bound to a hydrogen, a carboxyl group, an amino group, and an R group) as naturally occurring amino acids, for example, homoserine, norleucine, methionine sulfoxide, methionine methylsulfonium. Such analogs can have modified R groups (e.g., norleucine) or modified peptide backbones, but retain the same basic chemical structure as naturally occurring amino acids. Amino acid mimetics refer to chemical compounds whose structure is different from the general amino acid chemical structure, but that function similarly to naturally occurring amino acids.
[0560] The natural amino acids and their various expressions described herein are well known to those skilled in the art, and their specific correspondences are shown in the following table:
[0561] Certain other unnatural amino acids, such as 2-aminoisobutyric acid (Aib), correspond to the following table:
[0562] The term "treat" includes inhibiting, slowing, halting or reversing the progression or severity of an existing symptom or condition.
[0563] Unless otherwise indicated, the term "isomer" is intended to include geometric isomers, cis-trans isomers, stereoisomers, enantiomers, optical isomers, diastereomers and tautomers.
[0564] The compounds of the present invention may exist in specific geometric or stereoisomeric forms. The present invention contemplates all such compounds, including cis- and trans-isomers, (-)- and (+)-enantiomers, (R)- and (S)-enantiomers, diastereomers, (D)-isomers, (L)-isomers, and racemic and other mixtures thereof, such as enantiomerically or diastereomerically enriched mixtures, all of which are within the scope of the present invention. Additional asymmetric carbon atoms may be present in substituents such as alkyl groups. All such isomers and mixtures thereof are encompassed within the scope of the present invention.
[0565] Unless otherwise indicated, the term "enantiomer" or "optical isomer" refers to stereoisomers that are mirror images of one another.
[0566] Unless otherwise indicated, the term "cis-trans isomers" or "geometric isomers" arises from the inability to rotate freely about double bonds or single bonds forming ring carbon atoms.
[0567] Unless otherwise indicated, the term "diastereomer" refers to stereoisomers that have two or more chiral centers and that are not mirror images of each other.

[0572] Optically active (R)- and (S)-isomers, as well as D and L isomers, can be prepared by chiral synthesis or chiral reagents or other conventional techniques. If one enantiomer of a compound of the present invention is desired, it can be prepared by asymmetric synthesis or derivatization with a chiral auxiliary, wherein the resulting diastereomeric mixture is separated and the auxiliary group is cleaved to provide the pure desired enantiomer. Alternatively, when the molecule contains a basic functional group (such as an amino group) or an acidic functional group (such as a carboxyl group), a diastereomeric salt is formed with an appropriate optically active acid or base, and then the diastereoisomers are resolved by conventional methods known in the art, and then the pure enantiomer is recovered. In addition, the separation of enantiomers and diastereomers is typically accomplished by using chromatography, which employs a chiral stationary phase and is optionally combined with a chemical derivatization method (e.g., carbamate formation from an amine).

[0583] In general, the series of polypeptides with modified structures described in the present invention are prepared by a polypeptide solid-phase synthesis method, starting from MBHA resin, using the Fmoc-strategy, and condensing protected amino acids one by one from the C-terminus to the N-terminus according to the peptide sequence (including condensation, deprotection, elution cycle, and removal of side chain protection to form a lactam ring), cleavage, filtration and concentration, precipitation, filtration and drying to obtain a crude branched cyclic peptide cleavage product, which is then purified, concentrated and freeze-dried to obtain the finished product.
[0584] Example 1
[0585] The peptide resin was synthesized using a conventional solid-phase synthesis process.
