Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of biopharmaceuticals, and more specifically, to a method for preparing triptorelin. Background Technology

[0002] Triptorelin is a potent GnRH agonist that, through sustained inhibition of sex hormone secretion, is a key drug for treating various hormone-dependent tumors (such as prostate cancer and breast cancer) and gynecological diseases (endometriosis and uterine fibroids). It is also used for central precocious puberty in children. In the reproductive field, it is commonly used to control pituitary downregulation before ovulation superstimulation, thereby preventing premature ovulation.

[0003] The sequence of triptorelin is Pyr-His-Trp-Ser-Tyr-D-Trp-Leu-Arg-Pro-Gly, containing two tryptophan residues (Trp). During cleavage, tryptophan oxidation impurities are easily generated. These impurities are similar in properties to the target product, making purification difficult and hindering their separation. This, in turn, affects product purity and production costs.

[0004] Patents CN101357936A and CN103012565A employ the Fmoc strategy solid-phase method to sequentially synthesize the main chain, followed by a one-step cleavage method to directly obtain the crude peptide. This method easily generates byproducts such as tryptophan oxidation during cleavage, resulting in low purity of the crude product, difficulty in separating impurities, and consequently, purification difficulties, affecting yield and cost. Patent CN117551176B uses a fragment condensation method to synthesize the main chain, followed by a one-step cleavage method to directly obtain the crude peptide. While this method achieves a high yield of triptorelin, the fragment condensation method increases the material ratio by 2-3 times compared to the one-step synthesis method, significantly increasing synthesis costs. Patent CN104387454A uses a combined solid-liquid method to synthesize the main chain and prepares triptorelin via a two-step cleavage method; however, the reaction requires strict zero-degree Celsius conditions, making the operating conditions quite demanding and significantly limiting industrial-scale production.

[0005] Therefore, those skilled in the art still look forward to methods for obtaining products with good quality at high product yields and low synthesis costs, especially new methods that reduce costs and waste liquid generation, which are essential and important for large-scale, industrialized production. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that the existing methods for synthesizing triptorelin are prone to generating tryptophan oxidation byproducts during the cleavage process, which leads to difficulties in product purification, high costs, and the inability to obtain high-purity triptorelin. The present invention provides a new method for preparing triptorelin.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: A method for preparing triptorelin includes the following steps: Using Sieber resin as the starting material, amino acids with protecting groups were sequentially linked according to the solid-phase synthesis method to obtain a fully protected resin, during which the Fmoc protecting group was sequentially removed. The first lysis buffer was added to the resin with the fully protected sequence to perform the first lysis, and the fully protected peptide with the side chain was obtained. A second lysis buffer was added to the fully protected peptide segment of the side chain for a second lysis to obtain crude triptorelin peptide. The crude peptide was then purified to obtain the triptorelin. The first lysis buffer is a DCM solution of TFA with a volume percentage of 0.5% to 1%; The second lysis buffer was prepared by mixing TFA, anisole, phenol, H2O, and DODT in a volume ratio of 80-90:1-10:1-10:1-10:1-5. This invention uses acid-sensitive Sieber resin as a solid-phase support to prepare the main-chain resin (fully protected sequence resin) via solid-phase synthesis technology. During the synthesis process, a low-ratio acid lysis was first used to obtain a triptorelin intermediate with fully protected side chains; subsequently, a high-ratio acid lysis was used to convert the intermediate into crude triptorelin peptide. Finally, after fine purification and lyophilization, a high-purity triptorelin final product was obtained.

[0008] The key innovation of this invention lies in its two-step cleavage strategy. During cleavage, tryptophan is prone to oxidation, generating various byproducts. This not only reduces the purity and yield of the target product but also increases the difficulty and cost of subsequent purification. By employing a stepwise cleavage approach, this invention effectively reduces the formation of tryptophan oxidation byproducts, significantly improving the yield and purity of the target product.

[0009] Furthermore, the method of this invention significantly reduces synthesis costs and improves production efficiency, demonstrating substantial industrial advantages. The successful application of this technology provides a novel solution for the efficient and low-cost synthesis of triptorelin, which is highly beneficial for large-scale industrial production and possesses broad application prospects and significant economic value.

[0010] Furthermore, in the solid-phase synthesis method, the amino deprotecting agent used is a DMF solution of piperidine with a volume percentage of 18% to 22%, or a DMF solution of DBU with a volume percentage of 1% to 2%.

[0011] Furthermore, in the solid-phase synthesis method, the coupling agent used is a mixture of DIC and Oxyma in an equimolar ratio.

[0012] Furthermore, in the first lysis, the mass-to-volume ratio of the fully protected sequence resin to the first lysis buffer was 0.8 g ~ 1.2 g: 10 mL, and the reaction conditions were room temperature reaction for 2 ~ 3 h.

[0013] Furthermore, the fully protected peptide sequence of the side chain is as follows: Pyr-His(Trt)-Trp(Boc)-Ser(tBu)-Tyr(tBu)-D-Trp(Boc)-Leu-Arg(Pbf)-Pro-Gly-NH2.

[0014] Furthermore, in the second lysis, the mass-to-volume ratio of the fully protected side-chain peptide to the second lysis buffer was 0.8 g ~ 1.2 g: 5 mL, and the reaction conditions were 200 ~ 300 r / min, 24 ~ 26 °C, and shaking reaction for 2 ~ 4 h.

[0015] Further purification was performed using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography.

[0016] Furthermore, in the reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography, mobile phase A: 90% acetonitrile / water containing 0.1% TFA, mobile phase B: water containing 0.1% TFA; detection wavelength: 220 nm; flow rate: 10 mL / min; column specifications: 20×250 mm, 10 µm, 100 Å.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention utilizes acid-sensitive resin as a solid-phase support to prepare the main-chain resin via solid-phase synthesis. This method offers advantages such as high resin substitution value and low amino acid input, significantly reducing material costs. In the pyrolysis process, an innovative two-step pyrolysis strategy is employed to prepare crude triptorelin peptide. After purification, the target peptide triptorelin is obtained with a purity >99.5% and a yield >55%. This pyrolysis method effectively reduces byproducts such as oxidation of tryptophan during pyrolysis, significantly improving product yield and substantially reducing production costs. Most importantly, all steps in this process are completed at room temperature, making it simple to operate and possessing excellent potential for industrial scale-up, providing a reliable technical solution for large-scale production.

Figure 4 As shown.

[0044] Through detailed comparative analysis of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, the two-step cleavage strategy employed in this invention demonstrates significant advantages in the preparation of triptorelin. In Example 1, a carefully designed two-step cleavage process first utilizes low-ratio acid cleavage to precisely release the side-chain protecting groups, followed by high-ratio acid cleavage to efficiently complete the cleavage of the main chain. The resulting crude triptorelin peptide, after purification and lyophilization, exhibits satisfactory purity and yield. In contrast, Comparative Example 1 employs a traditional one-step cleavage method. Due to the tendency of tryptophan to undergo oxidation and other side reactions during cleavage, the product contains higher impurities, resulting in lower purity and yield compared to Example 1.

[0045] The two-step pyrolysis strategy of this invention cleverly avoids the drawbacks of traditional methods. By controlling the pyrolysis conditions in stages, it effectively reduces the formation of tryptophan oxidation byproducts, thereby significantly improving the purity and yield of triptorelin. This innovative method has not only achieved excellent results in laboratory-scale experiments but also demonstrated good reproducibility and stability in scale-up production, greatly improving production efficiency and reducing production costs. It provides an efficient, economical, and reliable solution for the industrial production of triptorelin. Therefore, the method of this invention has extremely high practical value and broad application prospects, making it very suitable for large-scale promotion and use, and is expected to bring significant economic and social benefits to related industries.

To avoid redundancy, the present invention describes preferred embodiments.

[0047] Although preferred embodiments of the invention have been described, those skilled in the art, upon learning the basic inventive concept, can make other changes and modifications to these embodiments. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including both the preferred embodiments and all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the invention.
