Technical Field
[0002] The present application belongs to the field of medicinal chemistry and relates to a compound for reducing the serum concentration of RBP4, and the use of the compound. Background Art
[0003] Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) is the only plasma transporter that transports vitamin A from the liver to peripheral tissues. Because retinol is involved in a variety of biological functions, including cell growth, immune function, fetal development, and vision, research on RBP4 has attracted increasing interest in recent years (see Clin. Immunol. Immunopathol., 80 (1996), pp. S52-S62; Faseb. J., 10 (1996), pp. 961-968; Endocr. Rev., 10 (1989), pp. 308-316; Cell Metabol., 5 (2007), pp. 164-166; Harvey Lect., 90 (1994), pp. 105-117; Annu. Rev. Pharmacol. Toxicol., 46 (2006), pp. 451-480).
[0004] Multiple studies have elucidated the role of RBP4 in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease (CVD), obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) (see N. Engl. J. Med., 354 (2006), pp. 2552-2563; Adv. Nutr., 6 (2015), pp. 748-762; Nature, 436 (2005), pp. 356-362; Circulation, 127 (2013), pp. 1938-1947; Lipid Health Dis., 16 (2017), p. 180).
[0005] RBP4 is also believed to be involved in the development of cancer, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and Stargardt disease (STGD) (see Oncotarget, 8 (2017), pp. 92254-92264; Medicine, 99 (2020), article e21254; J. Ovarian Res., 11 (2018), p. 29; Cancers, 12 (2020), p. 623; Endocr. Relat. Canc., 22 (2015), pp. L1-L4; BioMed Res. Int., 2014 (2014), p. 179040; Health Technol. Assess., 22 (2018), pp. 1-168). In the treatment of the above diseases, studies have been conducted to reduce the expression of RBP4 by directly antagonizing or inhibiting its level.
[0006] Although RBP4 is primarily synthesized in the liver, with approximately 20% synthesized in adipose tissue (see J. Lipid Res., 30 (1989), pp. 171-180), it has been recognized as a biomarker for insulin resistance and metabolism. RBP4 is known as an adipokine involved in energy metabolism, insulin signaling, and insulin resistance (see Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. United States Am., 108 (2011), pp. 4340-4345; Am. J. Physiol. Endocrinol. Metab., 297 (2009), pp. E1420-E1429; Diabetes, 64 (2015), pp. 1603-1614; Diabetologia, 59 (2016), pp. 354-362). In addition to its role as a selective retinol transporter, a recent study has shown that RBP4 is also involved in fatty acid transport (see Biochim. Biophys. Acta Mol. Cell Biol. Lipids, 1863 (2018), pp. 458-466). In addition, many studies have reported that RBP4 levels are elevated in patients with diabetes and insulin resistance (see J. Clin. Endocrinol., 92 (2007), pp. 1971-1974; Diabetes Care, 29 (2006), pp. 2457-2461; Diabetes Care, 30 (2007), pp. 1173-1178).
[0007] Research is also exploring the role of RBP4 in atrophic (dry) AMD and STGD. AMD and STGD are slowly progressive neurodegenerative diseases that can lead to blindness. Excessive accumulation of lipofuscin in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is considered to be the cause of these diseases. Elevated lipofuscin levels inhibit the normal function of the RPE, thereby promoting its degeneration. The lack of RPE metabolic support subsequently leads to photoreceptor death (see Exp. Eye Res., 80 (2005), pp. 595-606; Faseb. J., 18 (2004), pp. 562-564). Therefore, in order to prolong RPE effects and photoreceptor lifespan, the concentration of lipofuscin should be reduced. Lipofuscin toxicity is mainly mediated by A2E, one of its diretinol components.
[0008] Therefore, the reduction of RBP4 levels will affect the expression of specific genes and subsequent biological functions. A recent paper discussed the biological functions of RBP4 and its pathological relevance in human diseases (see Front. Physiol., 12 (2021), p. 659977). There is also a need to develop compounds with excellent RBP4-lowering effects. Summary of the Invention

Therefore, pharmaceutical compositions containing the present application compound as an active ingredient and methods for preparing the present application compound are also part of this application. Moreover, some crystalline forms of the compound may exist in the form of polymorphs and are therefore included in this application. In addition, some compounds may form solvates with water (i.e., hydrates) or common organic solvents, and such solvates are also included within the scope of this application.
[0205] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a salt prepared from a pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic base or acid. When the compound of the present application is acidic, its corresponding salt can be conveniently prepared from a pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic base, including inorganic bases and organic bases. When the compound of the present application is basic, its corresponding salt can be conveniently prepared from a pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic acid, including inorganic acids and organic acids. Since the compounds in the present application are intended for pharmaceutical use, they are preferably provided in a substantially pure form, for example at least 60% pure, more suitably at least 75% pure, and especially at least 98% pure (% by weight).
[0206] The present application includes within its scope prodrugs of the compounds of the present application. Typically, such prodrugs are functional derivatives of compounds that are easily converted into the desired compound in vivo. Therefore, in the therapeutic methods of the present application, the term "administration" should include treating various conditions with a specifically disclosed compound or with a compound that may not be specifically disclosed but is converted into a specific compound in vivo after administration to a subject. Conventional methods for selecting and preparing suitable prodrug derivatives are described in, for example, "Prodrug Design" ("Design of Prodrugs", ed. 25 H. Bundgaard, Elsevier, 1985).
[0207] The definition of any substituent or variable at a particular position in a molecule is intended to be independent of the definitions of substituents or variables at other positions in the molecule. It should be understood that one of ordinary skill in the art can select substituents and substitution patterns on the compounds of the present invention to provide chemically stable compounds that can be readily synthesized by techniques known in the art and the methods illustrated herein.
[0208] The compounds described herein may contain one or more asymmetric centers and may therefore produce diastereomers and optical isomers. The present application includes all such possible diastereomers and racemic mixtures thereof, their substantially pure resolved enantiomers, all possible geometric isomers, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
[0209] This application includes all stereoisomers of the compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. In addition, mixtures of stereoisomers and isolated specific stereoisomers are also included. In the process of synthetic steps used to prepare these compounds, or in the process of using racemization or epimerization methods known to those skilled in the art, the products of these steps may be mixtures of stereoisomers.
[0210] The term "stereoisomer" as used herein refers to isomers resulting from differences in spatial arrangement of atoms or groups of atoms in a molecule in the same order of interconnection. This includes configurational isomers and conformational isomers. Configurational isomers further include geometric isomers and optical isomers. Optical isomers primarily include enantiomers and diastereomers. This application encompasses all possible stereoisomers of the compound.
[0211] Certain compounds provided herein may exist as atropisomers, which are conformational stereoisomers that occur when rotation about a single bond in a molecule is prevented or greatly slowed due to steric interactions with other parts of the molecule. The compounds provided herein include all atropisomers, including pure individual atropisomers, enriched atropisomers of each, or nonspecific mixtures of each. If the barrier to rotation about a single bond is high enough and the interconversion between conformations is slow enough, separation of atropisomers may be permitted.
[0212] This application is intended to include all isotopes of atoms present in the compounds of this application. Isotopes are atoms having the same atomic number but different mass numbers. As a general example and not limitation, isotopes of hydrogen include deuterium and tritium. Isotopes of hydrogen can be represented by 1 H (hydrogen), 2 H (deuterium) and 3 H (tritium). They are also commonly represented as D (deuterium) and T (tritium). In this application, CD3 represents a methyl group in which all hydrogen atoms are deuterium. Carbon isotopes include 13 C and 14 C. Isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention can generally be prepared by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art or by methods analogous to those described herein, using an appropriate isotopically labeled reagent instead of a non-labeled reagent.
[0213] Unless otherwise indicated, the term "deuterated derivative" as used herein refers to a compound having the same chemical structure as a reference compound, but in which one or more hydrogen atoms have been replaced by a deuterium atom ("D"). It will be recognized that some variation in natural isotopic abundance will occur in the synthetic compounds, depending on the source of the chemical materials used in the synthesis. The concentration of the naturally abundant stable hydrogen isotope, compared to the degree of stable isotopic substitution of the deuterated derivatives described herein, although such variation is small and insignificant. Therefore, unless otherwise indicated, when referring to a "deuterated derivative" of a compound disclosed herein, at least one hydrogen has been replaced by deuterium at a level well above its natural isotopic abundance (typically about 0.015%). In some embodiments, the deuterated derivatives disclosed herein have an isotopic enrichment factor per deuterium atom of at least 3500 (containing 52.5% deuterium in each specified deuterium), at least 4500 (containing 67.5% deuterium), at least 5000 (containing 75% deuterium), at least 5500 (containing 82.5% deuterium), at least 6000 (containing 90% deuterium), at least 6333.3 (containing 95% deuterium), at least 6466.7 (containing 97% deuterium), or at least 6600 (containing 99% deuterium).
[0214] When the compounds of the present application exist in tautomers, the present application includes any possible tautomers and pharmaceutically acceptable salts and mixtures thereof, unless otherwise specifically stated.
[0215] The pharmaceutical composition of the present application comprises a compound of the present application (or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) as an active ingredient, a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and optional other therapeutic ingredients or adjuvants. Although the most suitable approach in any given case will depend on the specific host, and the nature and severity of the disease (the active ingredient is being applied for the treatment of the disease), the composition includes compositions suitable for oral, rectal, topical and parenteral (including subcutaneous, intramuscular and intravenous) administration. The pharmaceutical composition can be conveniently present in unit dosage form and prepared by any method well known in the pharmaceutical field.
[0216] In practice, according to conventional pharmaceutical formulation techniques, the compound of the present application or its prodrug or metabolite or pharmaceutically acceptable salt can be combined as an active ingredient with a drug carrier and a drug carrier to form a close mixture. Depending on the formulation form required for the route of administration, for example, the carrier can take a variety of forms, such as oral or parenteral (including intravenous) routes of administration. Therefore, the pharmaceutical composition of the present application can exist as discrete units suitable for oral administration, such as capsules, cachets or tablets, each containing a predetermined amount of active ingredient. In addition, the composition can exist as a powder form, a granular form, a solution form, a suspension in an aqueous liquid, a non-aqueous liquid, an oil-in-water emulsion or an oil-in-water emulsion. In addition to the above-mentioned common dosage forms, the compound represented by Formula I or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt can also be administered by controlled release and / or a delivery device. The composition can be prepared by any pharmaceutical method. Typically, such methods include the step of combining the active ingredient with a carrier constituting one or more essential ingredients. Typically, the composition is prepared by uniformly and closely mixing the active ingredient with a liquid carrier or a finely divided solid carrier or both. The product can then be conveniently formed into the desired style.
[0217] Therefore, the pharmaceutical composition of the present application may include a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. The compound of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof may also be included in a pharmaceutical composition in combination with one or more other therapeutically active compounds.
[0218] The pharmaceutical carrier used can be, for example, a solid, liquid, or gas. Examples of solid carriers include lactose, terra alba, sucrose, talc, gelatin, agar, pectin, gum arabic, magnesium stearate, and stearic acid. Examples of liquid carriers are syrup, peanut oil, olive oil, and water. Examples of gaseous carriers include carbon dioxide and nitrogen. In preparing compositions for oral dosage forms, any convenient pharmaceutical medium can be used. For example, water, ethylene glycol, oil, alcohol, flavorings, preservatives, colorants, etc. can be used to form oral liquid preparations such as suspensions, elixirs, and solutions; while carriers such as starch, sugar, microcrystalline cellulose, diluents, granulating agents, lubricants, binders, disintegrants, etc. can be used to form oral solid preparations such as powders, capsules, and tablets. Tablets and capsules are preferred oral dosage units due to their ease of administration, which utilize solid pharmaceutical carriers. Alternatively, tablets can be coated using standard aqueous or non-aqueous techniques.
[0219] Tablets containing the compositions of the present application can be prepared by compression or molding, optionally containing one or more auxiliary ingredients or adjuvants. Compressed tablets can be prepared by compressing the active ingredient in a free-flowing form, such as a powder or granules, in a suitable machine, optionally mixed with a binder, lubricant, inert diluent, surfactant, or dispersant. Molded tablets can be prepared by molding a mixture of the powdered compound moistened with an inert liquid diluent in a suitable machine. Each tablet preferably contains from about 0.05 mg to about 5 g of the active ingredient, and each cachet or capsule preferably contains from about 0.05 mg to about 5 g of the active ingredient. For example, a formulation for oral administration to humans may contain from about 0.5 mg to about 5 g of the active agent mixed with an appropriate and convenient amount of carrier material, which may comprise from about 0.05 to about 95% of the total composition. Dosage unit forms typically contain from about 0.01 mg to about 2 g of active ingredient, typically 0.01 mg, 0.02 mg, 1 mg, 2 mg, 3 mg, 4 mg, 5 mg, 6 mg, 7 mg, 8 mg, 9 mg, 10 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg, 200 mg, 300 mg, 400 mg, 500 mg, 600 mg, 800 mg, 1000 mg, 1500 mg or 2000 mg.
[0220] The pharmaceutical compositions of the present application suitable for parenteral administration can be prepared as solutions or suspensions of the active compound in water. Suitable surfactants, such as hydroxypropylcellulose, can be included. Dispersions can also be prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycol, and mixtures thereof in oils. In addition, preservatives can be included to prevent the harmful growth of microorganisms.
[0221] The pharmaceutical compositions of the present application suitable for injection include sterile aqueous solutions or dispersions. In addition, the compositions may be in the form of sterile powders for the extemporaneous preparation of such sterile injectable solutions or dispersions. In all cases, the final injectable form must be sterile and must be effectively fluid for ease of injection. The pharmaceutical composition must be stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage; therefore, it is best to preserve it to prevent contamination by microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. The carrier may be, for example, a solvent or dispersion medium containing water, ethanol, a polyol (e.g., glycerol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol), a vegetable oil, and suitable mixtures thereof.
[0222] The pharmaceutical composition of the present application can be in a form suitable for topical use, such as an aerosol, cream, ointment, lotion, dusting powder, etc. In addition, the composition can be in a form suitable for transdermal devices. Utilizing the compound shown in the present application formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, these preparations can be prepared by conventional processing methods. For example, a cream or ointment can be prepared by mixing a hydrophilic material and water with about 0.05wt% to about 10wt% of the compound to produce a cream or ointment with the desired consistency.
[0223] The pharmaceutical composition of the present application can be a form suitable for rectal administration, wherein the carrier is a solid. Preferably, the mixture forms a unit dose suppository. Suitable carriers include cocoa butter and other materials commonly used in this area. Suppositories can be formed easily by first mixing the composition with a softening or melting carrier, then cooling and molding in a mold.
[0224] In addition to the above-mentioned carrier components, the above-mentioned pharmaceutical preparations may suitably include one or more additional carrier components, such as diluents, buffers, flavorings, adhesives, surfactants, thickeners, lubricants, preservatives (including antioxidants), etc. In addition, other adjuvants may be included to make the preparation isotonic with the blood of the intended recipient. Compositions containing the compound or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt may also be prepared in the form of powders or liquid concentrates.
[0225] Generally, dosage levels of about 0.001 mg / kg to about 150 mg / kg of body weight per day are useful for treating the aforementioned conditions, or about 0.05 mg to about 7 g per patient per day. For example, dosages of about 0.001 to 50 mg of the compound per kg of body weight per day, or about 0.05 mg to about 3.5 g per kg of body weight per day, may be effective for treating age-related macular degeneration, dry (atrophic) age-related macular degeneration, Stargardt disease, Best disease, adult vitelliform maculopathy, or macular dystrophies similar to Stargardt disease. However, it should be understood that the specific dosage level for any particular patient will depend on a variety of factors, including age, body weight, general health, sex, diet, time of administration, route of administration, excretion rate, drug combination, and the severity of the particular disease being treated.
[0226] Unless the context indicates otherwise, when a value is expressed as "about X" or "approximately X", the specified value of X is to be understood to be accurate to ±10%, preferably ±5%, ±2%.

[0262] 1. Detection of RBP4 content in plasma
[0263] Experimental Methods: 7- to 8-week-old ICR male mice were acclimated for 3 to 7 days and randomly divided into groups (4 mice per group). They were fasted for 12 hours before testing. On the day of the test, orbital venous blood samples were collected before dosing (0-hour values were used as initial levels), and plasma was isolated. Subsequently, the test compound (solvent: 5% DMSO + 10% cyclodextrin) was administered orally at a dose of 1 mg / kg or 5 mg / kg. A control group (5% DMSO + 10% cyclodextrin) was also administered orally. Orbital venous blood samples were collected at 5, 8, 10, 12, and 24 hours after compound administration, and plasma was isolated. Plasma RBP4 (Retinol Binding Protein 4, Plasma) ELISA kit (immunoway, KE1574) was used to measure RBP4 levels. The percentage of reduction was calculated, with the maximum percentage reduction between 5 and 24 hours selected. The reduction rate of RBP4 content in mouse plasma at different sampling time points = (initial RBP4 content - RBP4 content at sampling point) / initial RBP4 content. The maximum reduction rate of RBP4 content in mouse plasma by each compound is shown in Table 2 below. The results are shown in Table 2.
