Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a compound represented by the following general formula (I) having a KDM5 inhibitory action, a salt thereof, and its pharmaceutical use.
Background Art
[0002] Eukaryotic DNA is in the cell nucleus in the state of chromatin structure, which is a complex with histone proteins. Histone proteins are modified by various enzymes such as methylation, acetylation, and phosphorylation, and it is known that the changes due to this modification induce chromatin remodeling and transcriptional changes. Epigenetic modifications including histone methylation reversibly control gene expression without changing the nucleic acid sequence and play an important role in physiological processes.
[0003] The KDM5 protein belongs to the JARID histone demethylase protein group and demethylates the trimethylation of the fourth lysine residue in the histone H3 protein (H3K4me3). In mammals including humans, there are four subfamilies of KDM5A, KDM5B, KDM5C, and KDM5D, which have five conserved domains, namely JmjN, ARID, JmjC, PHDs, and C5HC2 zinc fingers. The KDM5 family is widely distributed in blood cells and various organs in vivo and is known to be highly expressed particularly in cancer tissues. Epigenetic abnormalities in cancer cells are known to be involved in the proliferation and metastasis of cancer cells, and it has been reported that KDM5 inhibitors are effective against cancer cells. The involvement of epigenetic abnormalities including histone modification has also been reported in other pathological fields such as mental and neurological diseases and metabolic diseases. Therefore, a compound having KDM5 inhibitory activity improves epigenetic pathological abnormalities and is useful for the prevention and treatment of these diseases.
[0004] As a related art of the present invention, International Publication No. 2016057924 reports that a compound of formula (A) is useful as an inhibitor of one or more demethylases such as KDM5. Formula (A): [Chemical formula] (In the formula, A A is selected from the following: [Chemical formula] R 1A is alkyl, a cyclic group, etc.; R 2A is an optionally substituted cyclic group, -OR aA , -C(O)N(R aA ) 2 or NR aA R bA ; R aA and R bA are each independently H, an optionally substituted alkyl group, an optionally substituted cyclic group, etc.; R 3A is H or alkyl; R 4A is H, alkyl, or a cyclic group; and R 5A is H, halogen, or alkyl, and R 6A is H, alkyl, or a cyclic group; or, R 5A and R 6A together form a cyclic group (extract of the group definition).), or a salt thereof.
[0005] Furthermore, in International Publication No. 2000 / 039089, it is reported that a compound represented by the following formula (B) is useful as an opioid receptor ligand.

[0188] Mice (male C57BL / 6 mice aged 16 to 23 months (Charles River Laboratories Japan, Inc.)) are used. The test substance and its solvent are orally administered once a day for two weeks.

The evaluation is performed in a dark room, and the light intensity is adjusted to approximately 20 lux near the experimental apparatus. To acclimatize the animals to the evaluation environment, the mice are moved to the evaluation room more than 1 hour before the start of the test. This test is carried out over three days. For acclimatization to the experimental apparatus on the first day, the mice are placed in the cage and allowed to move freely for 10 minutes. In the acquisition trial on the second day, two identical objects (known objects) are placed on the cage, and the same procedure is carried out for 10 minutes. The two objects are placed apart on a line parallel to the long side of the cage. The distance between the object and the inner walls of the two adjacent sides is 10 cm. In the test trial on the third day, one of the objects used in the acquisition trial is replaced with a new object of a different color and shape, and the animals are allowed to behave in the same way for 10 minutes. The test trial starts 24 hours (tolerance range: 23 to 25 hours) after the acquisition trial. From the video images recorded in the test trial, the exploration time of each object is measured.

[0191] MCF-7, T47D, and MBA-MB231 human breast cancer cells are purchased from ATCC upon authentication. The cells are passaged up to 10 - 12 times at most and then replaced with the initial passage cells stored in liquid nitrogen since purchase. The cells are adhered and grown in high-glucose Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) containing 1% penicillin / streptomycin, 2 mM L-glutamine, and 10% inactivated fetal bovine serum.

Then, the cells are collected, counted, and diluted in growth medium containing the compound. Appropriate numbers of cells are seeded in quadruplicate according to the doubling time of the cell line and the irradiation dose. 24 hours after this seeding, the medium containing the compound is replaced with fresh DMEM, and the cells are cultured for 14 days (a time sufficient for at least 6 cell divisions). After this growth period, the cells are washed twice with PBS, then fixed and stained at room temperature for 30 minutes with an appropriate solution consisting of 0.3% methylene blue and 80% ethanol. After washing the cells twice with dd water, the plates are imaged colorimetrically using a ChemiDoc XRS+ imaging system (Bio-Rad). The radiation dose-response curves for DMSO and the compound samples are calculated using the survival rate. The colony formation rate and survival rate are calculated as follows. Colony formation rate = Number of counted colonies / Number of seeded cells Survival rate = Colony formation rate / Colony formation rate of the mock sample

The next day, genotype D (derived from AD38) HBV is infected into PHH at a concentration of 500 genome equivalents per cell in maintenance medium supplemented with 4% PEG8000 (Promega). After incubation for 24 hours, the cells are washed three times with William's Medium E and fresh maintenance medium is added. On day 3 post-infection, the infected PHH cells are seeded at a concentration of 65,000 cells / well onto collagen-precoated 96-well plates in a final volume of 125 μL of maintenance medium (Life Technologies) containing the most diluted compound or DMSO (final concentration 1%). The medium containing the compound is replenished every 2 to 3 days. After 12 days of incubation, HBsAg secreted into the supernatant is measured by multiplex chemiluminescence (Mesoscale discovery, MSD) assay using an HBsAg-specific capture antibody and detection antibody pair.

An oily gel can be produced by mixing an active ingredient with a liquid oil base such as glycol or a higher alcohol and an additive. (7) Patch
[0238] A patch is a preparation for application to the skin, and examples thereof include tapes, cataplasms, and the like. A patch can usually be produced by homogeneously mixing an active ingredient with a base that is a polymer compound or a mixture thereof, and spreading and molding it on a support or a liner (release material). A patch can be made into a transdermal absorption preparation using a release control film. Additives such as an adhesive or an absorption promoter may be used in the patch. A tape preparation refers to a patch containing a base containing a small amount of water, and examples thereof include adhesive plasters and the like. A tape preparation can usually be produced using a natural or synthetic polymer compound insoluble in water such as resin, plastic, or rubber as a base, and spreading an active ingredient or a homogeneous mixture of an active ingredient and an additive on cloth or spreading or encapsulating it on a plastic film and molding it. A tape preparation can also be produced by incorporating a mixture of an active ingredient and a base or other additives into a release material composed of a release control film, a support, and a liner (release material) and molding it. A cataplasm is a patch containing a base containing water, and it can usually be produced by mixing a liquid substance such as purified water or glycerin with an active ingredient to make it homogeneous, or by kneading purified water in addition to an active ingredient into a natural or synthetic polymer compound such as a water-soluble polymer or a water-absorbing polymer to make it homogeneous, and spreading and molding it on cloth or the like.
