[Technical Field]
[0001] FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to the medical use of the compounds of the invention according to formula I for the treatment of psoriatic arthritis (PsA). The present invention relates to the treatment of PsA and / or also offers a method of prevention. [Background technology]
[0002] (background) Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an inflammatory form of arthritis that affects up to 30 percent of people with psoriasis. Psoriatic arthritis causes swelling, stiffness, and pain in and around the joints. This can cause nail changes and overall fatigue. Research has shown that psoriatic arthritis can be treated with It has been shown that delaying treatment by as little as six months can result in permanent joint damage. Early recognition, diagnosis, and treatment of joint pain can reduce pain and inflammation and help prevent joint damage. Although several treatment options are available, most No current treatment effectively relieves enthesitis and symptoms of joints and skin.
[0003] Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors have been developed to combat RA. JAKs are membrane receptors that bind to It is a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase that converts cytokine signaling from STAT transcription factors. Four JAK family members have been described: JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, and TYK2. Upon cytokine binding to its receptor, JAK family members undergo autophosphorylation and / or or transphosphorylate each other, which then phosphorylates STAT, which then translocates to the nucleus. JAK-STAT intracellular signaling regulates transcription of interferons, most interferons, and Interleukins, and various cytokines and endocrine factors, e.g., EPO, TPO, GH, OS M, LIF, CNTF, GM-CSF, and PRL (Vainchenker et al., 2008).
[0004] JAK1 is a target in the field of immune inflammatory diseases. JAK1 heterodimerizes with other JAKs. and transduce cytokine-driven pro-inflammatory signaling. Inhibition of JAK1 inhibits JAK1 signaling, such as IL-6, IL-4, IL-9, IL-15, IL-21, or IFNγ. For immunoinflammatory diseases with pathology-associated cytokines and JAK-mediated signaling The compounds according to formula I, cycloproline, are of interest for other diseases driven by steroid hormone receptor agonists. Pancarboxylic acid {5-[4-(1,1-dioxo-thiomorpholin-4-ylmethyl)-phenyl]-[1,2,4] Triazolo[1,5-a]pyridin-2-yl}-amide (compound 1) was prepared as described in WO 2010 / 149769 (Menet and Smi ts, 2010) and has the chemical structure shown below: [ka] .
[0005] Compound I is a potent and selective JAK1 inhibitor for the treatment of inflammatory disorders. , for inhibition of JAK1 among 451 unique kinase gene products tested in vitro. Highly selective. Cytokine-induced STAT1 phosphorylation in a human whole blood assay. showed half-maximal values of 629 nM and 17,453 nM for JAK1- and JAK2-mediated signaling, respectively. Inhibitory concentration (IC 50 ) value, and in this assay, Compound I also showed 27-fold selectivity for JAK1. Therefore, compound I is a selective inhibitor of JAK1. do.
[0006] In humans, Compound I is metabolized to one major active metabolite, a compound according to Formula II. Form: [ka] .
[0007] This molecule also inhibited JAK1 signaling, but with approximately 20-fold less potency than the parent compound, and Although this metabolite is less potent than the parent molecule, it is still present in approximately 10 times more abundant form overall in humans. The expected exposures and peak plasma concentrations were higher than those seen in all animal species tested. Therefore, specialized pharmacology and toxicology studies are being conducted with Compound II. The results of pharmacodynamic (PD) experiments in Australia indicate that the clinical activity of Compound I is due to the combination of the parent molecule and metabolites. It is suggested that the compound according to formula II may be produced from the .
[0008] JAK inhibitors are being evaluated for the treatment of PsA. Patients with active psoriatic arthritis who have had an inadequate response to conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs A Phase III study in patients showed a 50% and 10% mortality rate when administered at 5 mg compared with 33% in the placebo group. When administered at 1 mg, it demonstrated a 61% ACR20 response rate at 3 months (Mease P. et al., NEJM 377;16 1 537-1550).
[0009] However, while JAK inhibitors are useful and effective molecules in the treatment of inflammatory conditions, they are poorly tolerated. blood, thrombocytopenia and neutropenia, hypercholesterolemia, increased creatinine, There are reported obstacles to the use of these compounds, all of which lack selectivity, particularly against JAK2. This may be due to the lack of selectivity for the ATP synthesis (O'Shea, JJ et al., 2013. Back to the Few Back to the Future: Oral Targeted Therapies for RA and Other Autoimmune Diseases eted therapy for RA and other autoimmune diseases). Nat. Rev. Rheumatol. 9, 173- 182; O'Shea, JJ, Plenge, R., 2012. JAK and IgA in immune regulation and immune-mediated diseases. and STATs (JAKs and STATs in Immunoregulation and Immune-Mediated Disease). Immunity 36, 542-550). In contrast, selective JAK inhibition, particularly JAK1, has the potential to provide safe and effective therapeutic agents. (Yamaoka, K., 2016. Janus kinase inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis) inase inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis). Curr. Opin. Chem. Biol. 32, 29-33).

[0056] Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a condition associated with psoriasis and affecting the peripheral joints, axial skeleton, tendon and ligament insertion sites (tendons). Characterized by a heterogeneous musculoskeletal phenotype involving multiple areas, including the musculoskeletal system (enthesis), the musculoskeletal system (enthesis), and the fingers and toes (dactylitis) PsA is an inflammatory joint disease that affects approximately 30% of people with psoriasis. The majority of cases (75%) In this study, psoriasis precedes joint disease, but in some cases (15%), the onset occurs simultaneously. In 10% of cases, arthritis precedes psoriasis. In the latter, unrecognized psoriasis may be found. There may also be a history of widespread guttate psoriasis in childhood or a strong family history. be.
[0057] PsA occurs equally frequently in men and women. PsA arthritis typically affects the joints of the fingers and toes. They tend to be distributed in a radial pattern, so that all the same joints of a single finger or toe may be affected. The degree of erythema over the affected joint, the presence of asymmetric spinal involvement, tendon attachment The presence of foot inflammation and lower levels of tenderness are also typical features of PsA. PsA affects up to 40% of Due to the presence of spondylitis in the patient, it belongs to the group of spondyloarthropathy. Extra-articular features observed in PsA are Similar to other spondyloarthropathies, these include mucosal lesions, iritis, urethritis, diarrhea, and ataxia. These include ventricle dilatation and association with HLA-B27.
[0058] First-line treatment has traditionally consisted of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and conventional disease-modifying anti-inflammatory drugs (MODs). Rheumatic drugs (cDMARDs), such as sulfasalazine (SSZ), methotrexate (MTX), and These drugs are limited to those with limited access to biologic agents. With the advent of anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agents more than 10 years ago, This has dramatically increased the armamentarium for the treatment of PsA, resulting in significant improvements in outcomes for both skin and joint disease. Nevertheless, anti-TNF agents are not effective in all patients, in part due to immunogenicity. may not work and may lose response over time. Interleukin-1 receptors that promote inflammation of the skin and joints Drugs with different mechanisms of action that target the IL-23 / IL-17 pathway are now available. Many more are currently being evaluated in clinical trials. These agents include IL-12 / IL-23 inhibitors ustekinumab and tildrakizumab; IL-23 inhibitor guselkumab; IL-17 receptor Receptor A inhibitors, such as secukinumab and ixekizumab, and IL-17 receptor inhibitors, such as brodalumab the IL-17 receptor A / F inhibitor bimekizumab, and the phosphodiesterase E4 inhibitor a These newer agents include primilast. The therapeutic response to these newer agents is characterized by significant plaque clearance. The results of these agents in PsA are most evident in psoriasis, where the tumors are irritated; These results are similar to those reported in previous studies. IL-17 blockade is also effective in axial disease, preventing radiological progression. The oral drug apremilast showed minimal responses in the skin and joints and a safety profile It is not indicated in patients with few signals and radiological lesions or axial lesions.
[0059] Several key cytokines in the IL-23 / IL-17 pathway are members of the Janus kinase (JAK) family. Activated JAK promotes inflammatory signaling in the skin and joints through its receptor-associated TYK. recruits and activates signal transducers and activators of transcription (STATs), which in turn initiate gene transcription. Specific JAK-STAT activation is mediated by IFN and related cytokines, the common γ-chain cytokine. It is dependent on cytokine signaling, including cytokines of the IL-6 type. It has been demonstrated that phospho-STAT3 (pSTAT3) and pSTAT1 expression is increased in psoriatic skin, and IFNγ , IL-6, and IL-22 can induce pSTAT1 or pSTAT3 in keratinocytes. is shown.

[0088] (1.4. Effectiveness Evaluation) Unless otherwise specified, symptoms of PsA and peripheral arthritis, psoriasis, enthesitis, dactylitis, and spondylitis Efficacy assessments to estimate signs and symptoms, and physical function were performed at baseline (Day 1) and and Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 16, or at the Early Discontinuation Visit (EDV), if applicable. ACR Individual components of the response criteria are obtained at screening and throughout the study.
[0089] Additionally, at baseline (Day 1) and Weeks 4 and 16 (or at EDV, if applicable), The subjects were the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT-Fatigue) questionnaire and a 36-item simple health questionnaire. Patients will be asked to complete the SF-36 survey and the Psoriatic Arthritis Disease Impact (PsAID) questionnaire. .
[0090] (1.4.1. High-sensitivity serum C-reactive protein) Subjects' serum CRP will be measured using the hsCRP test at the time points indicated in the study flow chart. Post-baseline CRP results will be kept confidential by the investigator and trial participants until database lock. The study will be blinded to the participants.
[0091] (1.4.2. 66 / 68-number of joints) At the time points described in the protocol, each of the 66 joints was evaluated for swelling (SJC66). Each of the eight joints is assessed for tenderness (TJC68).
[0092] To perform all joint assessments, a qualified medical professional with appropriate training and experience in performing joint assessments must be present. A joint assessor will be designated at each trial site. This joint assessor will preferably be a rheumatologist. in the absence of a rheumatologist, this assessor is less knowledgeable in performing the joint assessment. This assessor should be a healthcare professional with at least one year of experience. This should remain the same for each elephant throughout the study. In the absence of a designated joint assessor , the designated joint assessor must identify an appropriate supporting assessor to provide compensation.
[0093] 68 Tender joint counts were based on the presence or absence of tenderness assessed by pressure and joint manipulation on physical examination. This should be done by scoring the simulation.
[0094] Synovial fluid and / or soft tissue swelling represented a positive result for the number of swollen joints assessed in 66 joints. Bone overgrowth does not represent it.
[0095] (1.4.3. Physician's Global Assessment of Disease Activity) A comprehensive assessment of the subject's arthritis disease activity will be performed by a physician with access to joint evaluation. (Section 1.4.2). A vertical line is drawn with a ruler on the visual assessment scale (VAS), measuring 10-cm in mm. Anchor and mark of "No disease activity" on the m line (the end indicates "Extreme disease activity"). The distance between them is a score from 0 to 100.
[0096] (1.4.4. Evaluation of Enthesitis) Enthesitis is assessed using the SPARCC Enthesitis Index. 16 body sites are assessed by palpation. The entire tendon attachment is assessed for tenderness and scored as 0 (not tender) or 1 (tender). The site inflammation score is the sum of all site scores, up to a maximum of 16. The higher the score, the more severe the pain. The burden of enthesitis is great.
[0097] When assessing the SPARCC enthesitis index, the 16 components used to assess enthesitis are: In addition to the position, the medial femoral condyles (left and right) were examined to allow for the assessment of the Leeds Enthesitis Index (LEI). will be assessed and evaluated in the same way as the other 16 sites.
[0098] (1.4.5. Evaluation of Dactylitis) Dactylitis was assessed by assessing the size and tenderness of all fingers and toes using the LDI. LDI is measured using a Leeds ductilometer to measure the circumference of the affected finger and toe and the circumference of the contralateral hand or foot. The ratio of the circumferences of the two digits is measured. A dactylitis digit is defined by a minimum difference of 10%. If the fingers and toes are also affected, a table of normative values based on population means can be used to provide a comparison. The circumference ratio is used to calculate the two-component tenderness score (0 for no tenderness, 1 for tenderness). The results from each digit with dactylitis are then summed to arrive at a final score. vinegar.
[0099] (1.4.6. Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) Score Including Body Surface Area (BSA)) The PASI score is used to measure the severity and extent of psoriasis. A section is selected for each body region (head, arms, trunk, and legs). and the intensity of desquamation was rated as none (0), mild (1), moderate (2), severe (3), or very severe (4). will be done.
[0100] Numerical scores ranging from 0 to 100% represent the percentage of psoriasis-associated symptoms as assessed by the investigator. It is used to measure the proportion of total BSA in a subject that is
[0101] (1.4.7. Physician's comprehensive assessment of psoriasis) A physician's global assessment of psoriasis is used to determine a subject's overall psoriatic lesions at a given time point. The subject's psoriasis disease activity is measured on a 6-point scale ranging from 0 (resolved) to 5 (severe). The patient is assessed by a physician using the MRI scan (see 1.5.1 below).
[0102] 1.4.8. Modified Nail Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (mNAPSI) The mNAPSI assesses the severity of nail matrix psoriasis and nail bed psoriasis (Cassell S. et al., "Modified The improved nail psoriasis severity index: a tool to assess psoriatic nail lesions in patients with psoriatic arthritis The modified Nail Psoriasis Severity Index: validation of an instrument to assess psoriatic nail involvement in patients with psoriatic arthritis.) J Rheumatol., pp. 34(1):123-9, 2007). Nail matrix psoriasis is characterized by pitting, leukocytes, and nail plaques. The nail bed is characterized by crescentic red spots and destruction of the nail plate. These include oily pigmentation, onycholysis, nail bed hyperkeratosis, and splinter hemorrhages.
[0103] Each of the subject's nails will be evaluated for any of the characteristics of nail matrix and nail bed psoriasis, taking into account the following abnormalities and rules: It is evaluated for the presence of any of:
[0104] The following abnormalities are graded on a scale of 0 to 3: -Onycholysis and oily drop (salmon patch) pigmentation disorder (considered together) - Nail depression - Nail plate collapse.
[0105] The following four abnormalities are scored solely by their presence: a score of 1 indicates presence; A score of 0 indicates absence: -Nail plate vitiligo -Red spots on the nails -Nail bed hyperkeratosis -Striate hemorrhage.
[0106] Each toe has a score of 0 to 14, with the total mNAPSI score ranging from 0 to 140.
[0107] 1.4.9. Patient Global Assessment of Disease Activity Subjects' global assessment of their arthritis disease activity is recorded on a 0-100 mm VAS. , on the VAS, drawn using a ruler, the distance between the start of this line and the mark on the 10-cm line in mm is , a score from 0 to 100. "Consider all the ways that psoriatic arthritis affects you." For the question, "How are you feeling today?", a score of 0 indicates "very good." and 100 indicates "very poor."
[0108] 1.4.10. Patient Global Assessment of Psoriasis Patients' global assessment of their psoriasis ranged from "clear" (0 points - no psoriasis) to "severe" (4 points). Using a five-category scale, the overall severity of psoriasis-related skin disease at a specific point in time was assessed. It is a single-item patient-administered assessment used to assess the degree of
[0109] 1.4.11. Patient Assessment of PsA Pain Intensity Patient pain assessment was done on the scale "The worst pain you experienced today due to your psoriatic arthritis." After the question, "Please show the vertical symbol ( | ) between the two ends of the horizontal line," This is done using a 0-100 mm VAS, which ranges from "no pain" to "unbearable pain." The length of the line to the mark is recorded. This assessment should be completed before the joint examination. The pain scores are also used to obtain the ACR20 / 50 / 70.
[0110] (1.4.12. Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI)) The HAQ-DI is used to monitor a subject's self-assessed physical function or disability. The 20 questionnaires are designed to assess a person's ability to function in eight areas: dressing, standing, eating, walking, and sleeping. The degree of difficulty a person has in completing tasks in areas such as: mobility, hygiene, reach, grip strength, and housework and chores. Responses are rated on a scale from 0, indicating no difficulty, to 1, indicating an inability to perform the task in that area. It is scored on a 4-point Likert scale with a maximum of 3. The need for medical attention is also recorded. The total score for the HAQ-DI ranges from 0 to 3, with higher scores indicating , indicating greater dysfunction.
[0111] (1.4.13.Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI)) Patient-reported disease activity of interest is assessed using the BASDAI (Sieper J. et al. The International Society for the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis (ASAS) Handbook: Guidelines for assessing spondyloarthritis Needles (The Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society (ASAS) handbook: a guide to assess spondyloarthritis.), Ann Rheum Dis., pp. 68 Suppl 2:ii1-44, 20 09). This is a six-item index (fatigue, spinal pain, peripheral arthritis) scored on a 0-10 NRS. The total score ranges from 0 to 10. A score of 4 or higher suggests suboptimal disease management.
[0112] (1.4.14. Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale (Pruritus NRS)) Subjects completed a visual rating scale with numbered intervals (whole numbers) at each study visit. Subjects are asked to complete an assessment of their itch using the itch-related questionnaire. The intensity of pruritus is assessed based on a 24-hour retrospective period of the most severe attack. Patients are asked to rate their itching on a scale of 0 (no itching) to 10 (worst itching imaginable).
[0113] (1.4.15. Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy Fatigue Scale (FACIT-Fatigue)) The FACIT-Fatigue Scale (Version 4) measures an individual's fatigue during their usual daily activities over the past week. This measures the level of fatigue in a person, with 0 indicating "not tired at all" and 4 indicating "very tired." It consists of 13 questions with a 7-day retrospective period on a 5-point Likert scale indicating "I have a feeling that I am Scores range from 0 to 52. The higher the score, the better the quality of life. .
[0114] (1.4.16. 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36)) The subjects' health-related quality of life was assessed using the SF-36 (version 2, SF-36v2) with a 1-week retrospective period. It is assessed using the Health Survey (registered trademark), which covers eight areas in two components: It consists of 36 questions: -Physical well-being: 4 domains: physical function (10 items), daily role function (4 items), physical pain (2 items), and and general health (5 items). -Mental well-being: 4 domains: vitality (4 items), social functioning (2 items), mental role functioning (3 items) eyes), and mental health (5 items).
[0115] The remaining items (health transitions) are not part of the above domains and are kept separate.
[0116] These scores are scaled from 0 to 100 (0 being the lowest possible score, The highest possible score is converted to 100), with higher scores representing better quality of life. Show quality.
[0117] (1.4.17. Psoriatic Arthritis Disease Impact Questionnaire (PsAID)) The PsAID questionnaire assesses the impact of PsA on a person's life. The experimental EULAR PsAID questionnaire, PsAID9, is used. Each item is scored from 0 to 10. All items are rated according to the importance of the health domain they represent. The weight of each area is taken into account in the total PsAID score. A higher score indicates a greater impact of the disease. A score of less than 4 out of 10 is considered an acceptable situation for the patient. A change of 3 or more points indicates a relevant absolute This is considered a fundamental change.
[0118] (1.5. Efficacy Analysis) (1.5.1. ACR20 / 50 / 70) Signs and symptoms of peripheral arthritis are measured using ACR20 / 50 / 70. ACR response is measured in patients with multiple diseases. It is a measure of improvement in patient assessment criteria.
[0119] Positive ACR20 responses were observed in both baseline swollen joint counts (SJC66) and tender joint counts (TJC68). At least 20% improvement from the previous model, based on the following five criteria: -Patient Global Assessment of Disease Activity (0-100mm VAS) -Physician's global assessment of disease activity (0-100mm VAS) -Patient's global assessment of PsA pain intensity (0-100mm VAS) -Patient-assessed physical function measured by HAQ-DI -CRP in mg / dL or mg / L defined as at least a 20% improvement in three or more of the following:
[0120] Positive ACR50 and ACR70 responses are derived from the definition of ACR20, but require a response of at least 50 % and 70% improvements are required.
[0121] At week 16, statistically significant differences were observed in ACR20, ACR50, and ACR70 scores for Compound I versus placebo. ACR20 and ACR50 showed statistically significant differences from placebo from the first week. Reach. Table 1-ACR20 [Table 1] Table 2-ACR50 [Table 2] Table 3-ACR70 [Table 3]
[0122] Significant differences between anti-TNF drug-naive and previously anti-TNF treated patients is not observed.
[0123] (1.5.2. Minimal disease activity (MDA)) Disease activity in PsA is measured using the MDA, a measure used to indicate disease remission. The MDA is based on a composite score of seven domains. If five of the seven following criteria are met, A patient is classified as having achieved MDA if: -TJC68≦1 -SJC66≦1 -PASI≦1 or BSA≦3% - Patient global assessment of PsA pain intensity score ≤ 15 (0-100mm VAS) - Patient Global Assessment of Disease Activity ≤ 20 (0-100mm VAS) -HAQ-DI≦0.5 -SPARCC Enthesitis Index ≤1 Table 4-MDA [Table 4]
[0124] Significant differences between anti-TNF drug-naive and previously anti-TNF treated patients is not observed.
[0125] (1.5.3. Psoriasis (PASI)) The four disease areas, head (h), upper limbs (u), trunk (t), and lower limbs (l), are each graded on a scale of 0 to 4. The symptoms were graded on a severity scale (0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe, and 4 = very severe). By using three parameters, erythema (E), induration (I), and desquamation (D), The area-wise failure rate is: 1 = less than 10% Area of fullness: 2 = 10-29%; 3 = 30-49%; 4 = 50-69%; 5 = 70-89%; and 6 = over 90%. The final formula for the PASI score is:
[0126] PASI=0.1×(Eh+Ih+Dh)×Ah+0.2×(Eu+Iu+Du)×Au+0.3×(Et+It+Dt)×At+0.4× (El+Il+Dl)×Al
[0127] The total PASI score ranges from 0 (no disease) to 72 (maximal disease), but if BSA is <3%, Therefore, the PASI is not considered reliable if the BSA level is ≥ 3% at baseline. Only the subpopulation of subjects with psoriasis was analyzed.
[0128] The following PASI parameters can be derived: - Change in PASI from baseline -50% improvement in PASI (PASI50) -75% improvement in PASI (PASI75) -90% improvement in PASI (PASI90) - 100% improvement in PASI or complete resolution of all disease (PASI100) Table 5-PASI [Table 5] Table 6-PASI75 [Table 6]
[0129] Significant differences between anti-TNF drug-naive and previously anti-TNF treated patients is not observed.
[0130] (1.5.4. Enthesitis) Enthesitis was assessed using the SPARCC Enthesitis Index and the Leeds Enthesitis Index (LEI). Enthesitis parameters were assessed in a subgroup of subjects with enthesitis (LEI>0) at baseline. Only the population was analyzed. The analysis focused on change from baseline.
[0131] Compound I improved enthesitis compared to placebo. For example, among 85 (65%) patients with enthesitis at baseline, baseline at 16 weeks The mean change from placebo was greater with filgotinib compared with placebo (LS mean The resolution of enthesitis was not significantly different between the two groups. (treatment difference 12% [-6.5 to 31.0], p=0.1583).
[0132] When assessed according to the LEI, 76 (58%) patients had enthesitis at baseline. Treatment effects are reported in Table 7. Enthesitis occurred in 10 patients who received placebo. More patients receiving filgotinib than those receiving filgotinib resolved their morbidity and mortality (treatment difference 26% [95% CI 4.0 to 45.1]). ], p=0.0059). Table 7 - LEI score (change from baseline) [Table 7]
[0133] Significant differences between anti-TNF drug-naive and previously anti-TNF treated patients is not observed.
[0134] (1.5.5. Physical Function (HAQ-DI)) The HAQ-DI is scored on a scale of 0 to 3, and change from baseline is reported. A reduction of at least 0.22 points compared to baseline was considered clinically meaningful. will be done. HAQ-DI [Table 8]
