Crystallization of spirocyclic compound and preparation method thereof

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This application claims priority and benefits of Chinese Patent Application No. 202310064780.5 filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of China on January 16, 2023, and the contents disclosed in said application are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Technical Field

[0003] The present disclosure relates to the field of pharmaceutical chemistry, and in particular to a crystal form of a spirocyclic compound, a preparation method thereof, and a pharmaceutical composition and use thereof. Background Art

[0004] Coronaviruses are single-stranded, positive-sense RNA viruses, some of which can spread widely among humans and cause severe symptoms. Currently, there are seven known coronaviruses that can infect humans: HCoV-229E, HCoV-OC43, HCoV-NL63, HCoV-HKU1, SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2. Most of the functional proteins of coronaviruses are encoded by the ORF1ab gene, which is first translated into a polyprotein and then cleaved into multiple active proteins by 3CL proteases and PL proteases. Therefore, inhibiting 3CL protease activity can effectively inhibit viral replication. The 3CL proteases of different coronaviruses share a high degree of structural homology, and therefore, 3CL protease inhibitors generally have broad-spectrum anti-coronavirus activity.

[0005] In addition to coronaviruses, 3CL proteases also play a key role in the hydrolysis of polyproteins encoded by picornaviruses. 3CL protease inhibitors can effectively inhibit picornavirus replication. Enterovirus 71, a picornavirus, is a common cause of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) and can also cause a variety of other illnesses, including meningitis, brainstem encephalitis, and myocarditis. In recent years, EV71 has repeatedly caused outbreaks in infants and young children, and effective treatments remain clinically lacking.

[0006] Therefore, there is still a clinical need for the development of pharmaceutically active substances that can be used to inhibit RNA / small RNA viruses including coronaviruses and enterovirus 71.

[0090] Definitions and Explanations of Terms

[0091] Unless otherwise indicated, the terms used in this disclosure have the following meanings. The definitions of groups and terms described in this disclosure, including their definitions as examples, exemplary definitions, preferred definitions, definitions described in tables, and definitions of specific compounds in the examples, may be combined and coupled with each other in any manner. A particular term should not be considered as undefined or unclear unless specifically defined, but should be understood according to its ordinary meaning in the art. When a trade name appears in this document, it is intended to refer to the corresponding commercial product or its active ingredient.

[0092] The term "solvate" refers to a complex or aggregate formed by one or more molecules of a solute and one or more molecules of a solvent. Solvate generally has a substantially fixed molar ratio of solute to solvent. This term also includes cage compounds, including cage compounds with water. Representative solvents include, for example, water, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, acetic acid, 2-methyltetrahydrofuran, methyl tert-butyl ether, etc. When the solvent is water, the solvate formed is a hydrate.

[0093] The term "about" is used in this disclosure to mean approximately, around, roughly, or approximately. When the term "about" is used in conjunction with a numerical range, it modifies the range by extending the upper and lower limits of the numerical range stated. Unless otherwise indicated, the term "about" is used herein to modify the upper and lower limits of a numerical value stated by a deviation of 10%.

[0094] Unless otherwise indicated, the terms "comprise," "comprise," or "comprises" and variations thereof, such as comprises or comprising, should be construed in an open, non-exclusive sense, ie, "including but not limited to."

[0095] References to "alternative embodiments" or "embodiments" in this disclosure mean that at least one embodiment includes the specific referenced elements, structures, or features described in connection with that embodiment. Thus, the phrases "alternative embodiments" or "embodiments" appearing in different places in this disclosure do not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment. Furthermore, the specific elements, structures, or features may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0096] The room temperature described in the present disclosure refers to 20±5.0°C.

[0097] The range "m to n" described in the present disclosure represents an abbreviation for any combination of real numbers between m and n, where m and n are both real numbers.

[0098] The “X-ray powder diffraction pattern” described in the present disclosure is measured using CuKα radiation.

[0099] The "X-ray powder diffraction pattern or XRPD pattern" described in the present disclosure refers to the Bragg formula 2d Sinθ = nλ (wherein, d is the interplanar spacing, θ is the diffraction angle, λ is the wavelength of the incident X-ray, and the diffraction order n is any positive integer, generally the first-order diffraction peak is taken, n = 1). When the X-ray is incident on an atomic plane with a lattice plane spacing d in a crystal or a partial crystal sample at a grazing angle θ (the complementary angle of the incident angle, also known as the Bragg angle), the Bragg equation is satisfied, thereby measuring this set of X-ray powder diffraction patterns.

[0100] For the same crystalline form of the same compound, the peak positions of their XRPD patterns are generally similar, but the relative intensity errors may be large. It should also be noted that in the identification of mixtures, some diffraction lines may be missing due to factors such as a decrease in content. In this case, it is not necessary to rely on all diffraction peaks observed in a high-purity sample; even a single diffraction peak may be characteristic for a given crystal.

[0101] The "2θ or 2θ angle" described in the present disclosure refers to the diffraction angle, θ is the Bragg angle, and the unit is ° or degree.

[0102] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the molar ratios of the disclosed compounds to the acid / base molecules and the solvent molecules in the solvate often have a certain degree of error due to factors such as crystal defects and measurement errors. Generally, a ±10% ratio is considered within a reasonable error range. While there may be a certain degree of error depending on the context in which the molar ratio is used, this error should not exceed ±10%, preferably ±5%.

[0103] The term "therapeutically effective amount" refers to an amount of a compound of the present disclosure that (i) treats a specific disease, condition, or disorder, (ii) alleviates, ameliorates, or eliminates one or more symptoms of a specific disease, condition, or disorder, or (iii) delays the onset of one or more symptoms of a specific disease, condition, or disorder as described herein. The amount of a compound of the present disclosure that constitutes a "therapeutically effective amount" varies depending on the compound, the disease state and its severity, the mode of administration, and the age of the mammal to be treated, but can be routinely determined by one skilled in the art based on their knowledge and this disclosure.

[0104] The term "treatment" means administering the compound or formulation described herein to improve or eliminate a disease or one or more symptoms associated with the disease, and includes:

[0105] (i) inhibiting a disease or disease state, i.e., arresting its development;

[0106] (ii) ameliorating the disease or condition, i.e., causing regression of the disease or condition.

[0107] The term "prevention" means administering a compound or formulation described herein to prevent a disease or one or more symptoms associated with the disease, and includes:

[0108] Preventing a disease or disease state from occurring in a subject (eg, a mammal) is particularly useful when such subject is susceptible to having the disease state but has not yet been diagnosed as having the disease state.

[0109] As used herein, the term "subject" or "patient" includes mammals and non-mammals. Examples of mammals include, but are not limited to, any member of the class Mammalia: humans, non-human primates (e.g., chimpanzees and other apes and monkeys); livestock, such as cattle, horses, sheep, goats, and pigs; domestic animals, such as rabbits, dogs, and cats; and laboratory animals, including rodents, such as rats, mice, and guinea pigs. Examples of non-human mammals include, but are not limited to, birds and fish.

[0110] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable" refers to those compounds, materials, compositions and / or dosage forms that are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, 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.

[0111] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable excipient" refers to an excipient that is non-irritating to organisms and does not impair the biological activity and properties of the active compound. Suitable excipients are well known to those skilled in the art and include, for example, carbohydrates, waxes, water-soluble and / or water-swellable polymers, hydrophilic or hydrophobic materials, gelatin, oils, solvents, water, and the like.

For example, they can be obtained by mixing the active compound with a solid excipient, optionally grinding the resulting mixture, adding other suitable excipients if necessary, and then processing the mixture into granules to obtain tablets or dragee cores.

[0118] The pharmaceutical composition may also be suitable for parenteral administration, such as sterile solutions, suspensions or lyophilized products in appropriate unit dosage forms.

[0119] The pharmaceutical composition of the present disclosure contains a therapeutically effective amount of the compound of formula (I) or its solvate crystalline form selected from 0.001 mg / kg body weight to 1000 mg / kg body weight, for example 0.01 mg / kg body weight to 500 mg / kg body weight, in the form of single or divided doses.

[0120] Those skilled in the art recognize that the measured data of XRPD peak positions and / or intensities for a given crystalline form of the same compound will vary within a range of error. The 2θ values ​​in this disclosure encompass an appropriate range of error, which is typically represented by "±". For example, a 2θ value represented in this disclosure as a specific angle value of ±0.20° represents that the specific angle value has an error range of ±0.20°, i.e., 5.92±0.20°2θ represents a 2θ range of 6.12 to 5.72. Depending on the sample preparation technique, the calibration technique applied to the instrument, human operator bias, etc., those skilled in the art recognize that an appropriate error range for XRPD diffraction angles may be ±0.20°, ±0.15°, ±0.10°, ±0.05° or less, and that some variability in peak intensity is allowed. The terms "substantially the same" or "substantially as shown" when used to describe an XRPD pattern refer to a pattern that includes diffraction peaks that have at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%, or at least 99% of the diffraction angles within a standard deviation of ±0.2° 2θ.

[0121] As those skilled in the art recognize that the measured data of the DSC spectra for a given crystalline form of the same compound will vary within an error tolerance. A suitable error range is allowed for the single peak value (expressed in degrees Celsius). Typically, the error range is represented by "±". For the same crystal form of the same compound, in consecutive analyses, the thermal transition temperature and melting point errors are typically within ±5.0°C. For example, a peak value of "170.25±5.0" is represented as being within the range of 165.25 to 175.25. Depending on the sample preparation technique, the calibration technique applied to the instrument, human operator bias, etc., those skilled in the art recognize that the appropriate error range for the single peak value may be ±5.0, ±4.0, ±3.0, ±2.0 or less.

The present disclosure also includes isotopically labeled compounds of the present disclosure that are identical to those described herein, but in which one or more atoms are replaced by atoms having an atomic mass or mass number different from that normally found in nature. Examples of isotopes that may be incorporated into the compounds of the present disclosure include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, fluorine, iodine, and chlorine, such as 2 H. 3 H. 11 C. 13 C. 14 C. 13 N. 15 N. 15 O. 17 O. 18 O. 31 P. 32 P. 35 S. 18 F. 123 I. 125 I and 36 Cl et al.

[0123] Certain isotopically labeled compounds of the present disclosure (e.g., 3 H and 14 C-labeled) can be used in compound and / or substrate tissue distribution assays. 3 H) and carbon-14 (i.e. 14 C) isotopes are particularly preferred due to their ease of preparation and detectability. Positron emitting isotopes, such as 15 O. 13 N. 11 C and 18 F can be used in positron emission tomography (PET) studies to determine substrate occupancy. Isotopically labeled compounds of the disclosure can generally be prepared by following procedures analogous to those disclosed in the Schemes and / or Examples below, by substituting an isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent.

[0124] In addition, the use of heavier isotopes such as deuterium (i.e. 2 H)) substitution may offer certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability (e.g., increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements) and may therefore be preferred in certain circumstances, wherein deuterium substitution may be partial or complete, partial deuterium substitution meaning that at least one hydrogen is replaced by deuterium.

[0254] Experimental procedures: K18-hACE2 transgenic mice were infected with the SARS-CoV-2 Delta strain via intranasal drops, with this day being designated as day 0. Two hours after infection, vehicle, 50 mg / kg, or 200 mg / kg of the compound of formula (I) (combined with 50 mg / kg of the cytochrome P450 inhibitor ritonavir) were administered orally, with dosing occurring twice daily for 2 days (one dose on day 0, two doses on day 1, and one dose on day 2) or 4 days (one dose on day 0, and two doses on days 1, 2, and 3, respectively). Mouse body weight changes were recorded, and lung and brain tissues were collected at the endpoint. The left lung was formaldehyde-fixed, embedded, sectioned, and stained with H&E for histopathological examination. The right lung and brain tissue were each divided into two aliquots. One aliquot was ground and homogenized to extract RNA, which was then reverse transcribed, and viral copy number was determined by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. The other aliquot was ground and homogenized to determine viral titer using a plaque assay.

[0255] Test results: As shown in Table 7, two days after infection, compared to the model group (mean viral copy number of 9.19±0.30log10copies / g), the compound of formula (I) at 50 mg / kg and 200 mg / kg, combined with ritonavir, significantly reduced the viral load in the lungs, with mean copy numbers of 7.66±0.27log10copies / g and 6.79±0.30log10copies / g, respectively. At a dose of 200 mg / kg, the viral copy number decreased by 2.4log10copies / g. A sustained inhibitory effect of the compound of formula (I) on viral copy number was observed four days after infection.

[0256] In terms of viral titer, as shown in Figure 8, a significant inhibitory effect of the compound of formula (I) was observed. After 2 days of infection, the 200 mg / kg dose completely inhibited viral replication and no titer was measured. At 50 mg / kg, the viral titer decreased by more than 3 log10 PFU / g compared to the model group. After 4 days of infection, the compound of formula (I) demonstrated a sustained inhibitory effect on viral titer. As shown in Figure 9, after 4 days of infection, the model group mice lost approximately 10% of their body weight, while the body weight of the group receiving the compound of formula (I) did not decrease significantly, indicating that the compound of formula (I) did not show significant toxicity under continuous administration. We further tested the viral load in the mouse brain. After 2 days of infection, no obvious infection was observed in any group. After 4 days of infection, compared to the model group, the compound of formula (I) at both 50 mg / kg and 200 mg / kg doses significantly reduced the number of viral copies in the mouse brain. In particular, at the 200 mg / kg dose, the number of viral copies in the brain was comparable to that of the uninfected normal group. We further tested viral titers in the brain 4 days after infection. The results are shown in Figure 10. Compared with the model group, no viral titers were detected at both doses of the compound of formula (I), demonstrating its potent inhibitory effect. In addition, lung histopathological analysis showed that the compound of formula (I) significantly improved lung damage at a dose of 200 mg / kg compared with the model group, including reducing the degree of alveolar atrophy or expansion and the degree of alveolar membrane thickening.
