Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to novel compounds that activate Kv7 potassium channels. Aspects also include pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds, and compounds that respond to activation of Kv7 potassium channels. The present invention relates to the use of compounds for treating diseases associated with rheumatoid arthritis. [Background technology]

[0002] Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels transport potassium across the cell membrane in response to changes in membrane potential. Muion (K + ) and thereby modulate (increase or decrease) the electrical activity of the cell. Functional Kv channels are composed of four α It exists as a multimeric structure formed by the association of a subunit and four β subunits The α subunit contains six transmembrane domains, a pore-forming loop, and a voltage sensor. The β or auxiliary subunits are arranged symmetrically around the central pore. The electrophysiological or biophysical properties, expression level, and or altering the properties of the channel complex, including but not limited to altering the expression pattern. You can ask questions.

[0003] Nine families of Kv channel α subunits have been identified, Kv1-Kv9 Therefore, the function of Kv channels is determined by the existence of many subfamilies and subgroups. The formation of both homologous and heterologous subunits within the β subunits There is a huge diversity that arises as a result of the additive effects of association with chromosomes (Christi e,25 Clinical and Experimental Pharmacol ogy and physiology,1995,22,944-951).

[0004] The Kv7 channel family consists of Kv7.1, Kv7.2, Kv7.3, Kv7.4, and Kv7.5. v7.5 mammalian channels, and any mammalian or non-mammalian equivalents or variants thereof (e.g., It consists of at least five members, including one or more of the following: The members of this family are named KCNQ1, KCNQ2, and KCNQ, respectively. 3, KCNQ4, and KCNQ5 (Dalby-Brown, et al., Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry,20 06,6,9991023).

[0005] As mentioned above, Kv7 potassium channels in neurons play a role in regulating neuronal excitation. Kv7 channels, especially the Kv7.2 / Kv7.3 heterodimer, play a key role in It forms the basis of electric current (Wang et al. Science. 1998 Dec 4;282(5395):1890-3). M currents are produced by membrane potentials in response to multiple excitatory stimuli. It has a characteristic time and voltage dependence that results in stabilization of the potential.

[0006] Thus, M-currents are involved in the control of neuronal excitability (Delmas & Br own, Nature, 2005, 6, 850-862). M currents are expressed in many neuronal cell types. In each cell type, this is the non-inactivating potassium current found in the action potential initiation It dominates the control of membrane excitability by being the only sustained current within the range of on,Annual Review Physiology 1997,59,483- 504).

[0007] Retigabine (N-(2-amino-4-(4-fluorobenzylamino)-phenyl)caprylate carbamic acid ethyl ester) is a compound that binds to Kv7 potassium channels (Wu ttke,et al.,Molecular Pharmacology,2005, 67,1009-1017). Retigabine inhibits K + Activate the current and The pharmacology of electrogenic current is Kv7.2 / 3 K + M-channels correlate with heteromultimers This is consistent with the published pharmacology of Kv7.2 / 3 channels, which may explain the activity of Kv7.2 / 3 channels. This suggests that this may be responsible for at least part of the drug's anticonvulsant effects (Wicken den,et al.,Molecular Pharmacology 2000,5 8,591-600). Retigabine reduces the incidence of epileptic seizures in patients with epilepsy. (Bialer, et al., Epilepsy Research 2002, 51, 31-71). Retigabine has broad spectrum and potent anticonvulsant activity. It has been successfully administered orally and intraperitoneally to rats and mice in various anticonvulsant studies. (Rostock, et al., Epilepsy Research h 1996,23,211-223).

[0008] The five members of this family of ion channels differ in their expression patterns. Expression of Kv7.1 is restricted to the heart, peripheral epithelium, and smooth muscle, whereas expression of Kv7.2 and Kv7.3 Expression of Kv7.1, Kv7.2, and Kv7.5 is increased in the hippocampus, cerebral cortex, ventral tegmental area, and dorsal root ganglia. It appears to be predominant in the nervous system, including ganglionic neurons (Greene & Hoshi ,Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences,20 17,74(3),495-508 for a review).

[0009] The KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 genes are involved in the development of a type of epilepsy known as benign familial neonatal convulsions. It appears to be mutated in genotypes (Rogawski, Trends in Ne urosciences 2000,23,393-398). KCNQ2 and KCNQ The proteins encoded by the three genes are involved in the initiation and propagation of epileptic seizures. It is localized in pyramidal neurons of the human cerebral cortex and hippocampus, the regions of the brain where al., Proceedings National Academy of Sci. ence USA 2000,97,4914-4919).

[0010] Furthermore, in addition to Kv7.2 mRNA, Kv7.3 and 5 mRNAs were expressed in astrocytes. Kv7.2, Kv7.3, and Kv7.5 are expressed in cytoplasmic and glial cells. Channels help regulate synaptic activity in the CNS and may mediate the neuroprotection of KCNQ channel openers. It can contribute to the protective effect (Noda, et al., Society for N Euroscience Abstracts 2003, 53.9), which is These include, but are not limited to, Heimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and Huntington's chorea. This makes it suitable for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

[0011] The mRNAs of Kv7.2 and Kv7.3 subunits are expressed in disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder. It has been found in brain regions associated with calming and emotional behaviors, such as the hippocampus, ventral tegmental area, and amygdala. Saganich, et al., Journal of Neuroscience ce 2001,21,4609-4624;Friedman et al.,Nat Commun. 2016;7:11671.) Retigabine has been shown to be effective in animal models of anxiety-like behavior. It has been reported to be effective in rmacol Exp Ther.2005 Jul;314(1):282-92.E Published 2005 Apr 6.) Therefore, Kv7 channels are thought to be involved in the treatment of bipolar depression, ataxia, and other conditions. Emotional disorders including but not limited to depression, anxiety, suicide, anxiety attacks, and social phobia Suitable for the treatment of related diseases.

[0012] Kv7.2 / 3 channels have also been reported to be upregulated in models of neuropathic pain. (Wickenden, et al., Society for Neuros Science Abstracts 2002,454.7), potassium channel regulator It has been hypothesized that it may be effective for both neuropathic pain and epilepsy (Sch roder,et al.,Neuropharmacology 2001,40,8 88-898). In addition to its role in neuropathic pain, it is also involved in the trigeminal and dorsal root ganglia, as well as The expression of Kv7.2-5 mRNA in the trigeminal nucleus caudalis indicates that openers of these channels This means that sensory processing in migraines may also be affected (Goldstein, et al. l.Society for Neuroscience Abstracts 200 3,53.8) Taken together, this evidence supports the potential for the treatment of chronic pain and neuropathic disorders. This demonstrates the validity of KCNQ channel openers.

[0013] WO 07 / 90409 reports Kv7 channel inhibitors for the treatment of schizophrenia. Kv7 channel openers regulate the function of the dopaminergic system. (Friedman et al., Nat Commun. 2016; Scot ty et al J Pharmacol Exp Ther.2009 Mar;3 28(3):951-62.doi:10.1124 / jpet.108.146944 .Epub 2008 Dec 19;Koyama et al.,J Neurop hysiol.2006 Aug;96(2):535-43.Epub 2006 J an 4;Li et al Br J Pharmacol.2017 Dec;17 4(23):4277-4294.doi:10.1111 / bph.14026.Ep ub 2017 Oct 19.;Hansen et al J Pharmacol Exp Ther.2006 Sep;318(3):1006-19.Epub 2 006 Jun 14), psychosis, mania, stress-related disorders, acute stress reactions, attention deficit Hyperactivity disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, impulsive disorder, personality disorder, schizophrenia These include schizotypical disorder, aggression, and autism spectrum disorder. It is suitable for the treatment of psychiatric disorders, including but not limited to the following. The target is a regulator of the M current formed by the expression of KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 genes. The use of the compound for insomnia is disclosed in WO 01 / 092526. It is disclosed that a modulator of Kv7.5 can be used to treat sleep disorders. Brochure No. 09 / 015667 discusses the use of Kv7 openers in the treatment of sexual dysfunction. It is disclosed.

[0014] Patients suffering from the above diseases may have available treatment options, but these options Many of the options lack the desired efficacy and are associated with unwanted side effects. There is an unmet need for new therapeutic approaches to treat the aforementioned diseases.

[0015] In an effort to identify new therapeutic approaches, the present inventors have identified a series of novel compounds represented by Formula I: Thus, the present invention provides compounds that inhibit the activity of KCNQ potassium channels.

It can affect behavior, movements, or may cause altered emotions and levels of consciousness. If a patient has a tendency to have recurrent epileptic seizures, this should be diagnosed as epilepsy. .

[0068] There are many types of epileptic seizures, classified by severity. Types of epileptic seizures The types of seizures vary depending on where and how they occur in the brain. Most epileptic seizures occur within 3 It lasts from 0 seconds to 2 minutes.

[0069] focal seizures Focal seizures result from abnormal electrical activity in one area of ​​the brain. Focal seizures are not accompanied by consciousness. This can occur with or without loss of consciousness. Focal seizures with impaired consciousness. These epileptic seizures cause altered or lost consciousness or awareness. The person may stare into space and not respond normally to their environment, or may rub their hands, chew, or They may make repetitive movements such as swallowing or walking in circles. Focal seizures without loss of consciousness. These epileptic seizures may alter emotions or It may change the way things look, smell, feel, taste, or hear, but the person loses consciousness. These epileptic seizures are characterized by involuntary spasms of body parts such as the arms or legs, and tingling, Spontaneous sensory symptoms such as dizziness and flashes of light may also occur.

Traditionally known as petit mal seizures, absence seizures often occur in children. gazing into space, or blinking or smacking one's lips, These epileptic seizures may occur in clusters and cause a brief loss of consciousness. I can get used to it. Tonic seizures. Tonic seizures cause muscle stiffness. These epileptic seizures usually occur in the back, It affects the muscles of the arms and legs. Cataplexy. Also known as drop attacks, cataplexy causes loss of muscle control. , which may cause it to suddenly collapse or tip over. Clonic seizures. Clonic seizures involve repetitive or rhythmic muscle jerking movements. These epileptic episodes The condition usually affects the neck, face, and arms. Myoclonic seizures. Myoclonic seizures usually involve sudden, brief jerks or jerks of the arms and legs. appears as a twitch. Tonic-clonic epilepsy, formerly known as grand mal epilepsy, A seizure is the most dramatic type of epileptic seizure and is characterized by sudden loss of consciousness, stiffening and shaking, Occasionally, loss of bladder control or tongue biting may occur.

[0071] Seizures often occur: High fever associated with infections such as meningitis lack of sleep Low blood sodium (hyponatremia) can occur with diuretic therapy medications such as certain painkillers, antidepressants or smoking cessation treatments that lower the seizure threshold Head trauma that causes areas of bleeding in the brain stroke Brain tumor Drugs such as amphetamines or cocaine alcohol It may be related to or result from
