Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention provides novel compounds that modulate the Kv7 potassium channel. Another aspect of the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compound and to the use of the compound for treating disorders in response to activation of the Kv7 potassium channel. [Background technology]

[0002] The Kv7 channel responds to depolarization of the cell membrane potential by transmitting potassium ions (K) through the cell membrane. + It is a voltage-gated potassium channel that conducts K. The Kv7 channel family consists of five proteins, Kv7.1, Kv7.2, Kv7.3, Kv7.4, and Kv7.5, encoded by the human genes KCNQ1, KCNQ2, KCNQ3, KCNQ4, and KCNQ5, or their equivalent genes in rodents, dogs, or non-human primates. The Kv7 protein has a conventional Kv structure with six transmembrane helices (S1-S6) and its N and C termini are located intracellularly. Functional Kv7 channels are K + These subunits exist as homo- or heterotetrameric complexes surrounding conductive transmembrane pores. The functional heteromeric channels described are Kv7.2 / Kv7.3, Kv7.4 / Kv7.3, Kv7.5 / Kv7.3, and Kv7.4 / Kv7.5 (for a general review of Kv7, see Soldovieri et al., 2011; Physiology, 26, 365-376).

[0003] Kv7.2-Kv7.5 are detected in neurons of the central nervous system (CNS), with the Kv7.2 / Kv7.3 heteromeric channel playing a particularly important role, being persistent in the region of action potential initiation, and acetylcholine-sensitive K +Kv4 and Kv7.5-containing channels are active to electric currents and therefore form the basis of the so-called M-current (Brown and Adams, 1980; Nature, 283(5748), 673-676), which is the major conductance that controls neuronal excitability. The specific roles of Kv4 and Kv7.5-containing channels in the CNS do not appear to be clear, but they are widely expressed in terminal tissues such as smooth muscle cells, and Kv7.4 in particular is a potential off-target for developing Kv7 modulators for neuronal indications (Svaloe et al., 2011; Basic & Clinical Pharmacology & Toxicology, 110, 145-153). Kv7 channels are also expressed in primary sensory neurons and are thus targets for treating various pain symptoms. In contrast to Kv7 channels expressed in neurons, Kv7.1 is expressed mainly in cardiac cells and some epithelial cells, typically in complex with different KCNEβ-subunits.

[0004] The crucial role of Kv7.2 / Kv7.3 channels in regulating CNS neuronal excitability is well explained by mutations in both KCNQ2 and KCNQ3, which are strongly associated with neonatal or childhood epileptic disorders ranging from relatively benign, self-limiting cases to severe encephalopathy, whereas such associations are far less pronounced in Kv7.5 and almost absent in Kv7.4 (Maljevic and Lerche, 2014; Progress in Brain Research, 213, 17-53). Consequently, compounds that activate the action of neuronal Kv7 channels have long been known as antiepileptic and analgesic drugs, including retigabine, registered as a control agent for treatment-resistant focal epilepsy, and flupirtin, marketed as an analgesic in several countries, including Germany. Retigabin and flupirtin are chemically closely related analogs, and due to their unstable chemical structures (both aniline) and long-term toxicity, both have now been withdrawn from the market (Bock and Link, 2019; Future Med Chem, 11(4), 337-355). In addition to these chemical challenges, retigabine also exhibited side effects in both the CNS and peripheral tissues, with the risk of urinary retention being perhaps the most serious in susceptible patients (Brickel et al., 2012; Epilepsia, 53(4), 606-612). Retigabin was continued in a new phase 3 controlled study under the name Xen496 by Xenon Pharmaceuticals in children diagnosed with KCNQ2 encephalopathy, but these studies were terminated in May 2023 for reasons that remain unclear.

[0005] Activation of Kv7 is a clinically validated concept for both epilepsy and pain (there are currently no commercially available drugs), and there is great interest in developing new Kv7 activators based on alternative chemical scaffolds. Fortunately, the scientific and patent literature shows that other chemical substances can also act as Kv7 channel activators through their interaction with either the conventional retigabine activator site in the pore region (S5-6) or alternative sites in the voltage sensor domain (S1-4). The advantage of adding a new chemical scaffold is that it may enable better differentiation between Kv7 subtypes, potentially improving the efficacy and safety of the drug. Approximately one-third of epilepsy patients are still not adequately treated with existing drugs. Similarly, several chronic pain symptoms are poorly managed, contributing to the deepening opioid crisis in the United States. Thus, new treatment principles for these diseases are urgently needed, and improving Kv7 channel activating agents represents a potential step towards solving these health problems.

A 10 mM DMSO stock solution of the compound was added to Cl - -Diluted with free assay buffer, 1 / 2 log serial dilutions (31.6 μM-0.316 nM) were prepared in 384-well plates. In the hKv7.3-hKv7.2 assay, the stimulating buffer was supplemented with 2 mM Tl2SO4 (thallium sulfate) and 5 mM K2SO4 (final concentration), as well as the quenchers amaranth (2 mM) and tartrazine (1 mM) in Cl -- Composed of free assay buffer. The stimulation buffer in the hKv7.5 assay was the same as the stimulation buffer used in the hKv7.3-hKv7.2 assay, but the final concentration of K2SO4 was 10 mM. Cells were stimulated in quadruple duplication, i.e., four individual wells were stimulated for each test concentration of the compound. In addition, a 16-well / plate was used as a negative control (with buffer added), and another 16-well / plate was used as a positive control (30 μM retigabine).

[0467] Data Analysis: Data from individual wells were expressed as multiplication factors (the maximum signal (after stimulus buffer addition) divided by the mean baseline value (immediately before addition)). Next, the data were background-corrected by subtracting the mean multiplication factor from the negative control well. Finally, the data were analyzed by normalizing the corrected multiplication factor to the maximum positive control response and fitting the data to Hill's equation. EC 50 The efficacy (percentage of the positive control) is reported, with the positive control defined as the response to 30 μM retigabine.

[0468] result Table 1 below shows the results obtained when evaluating the ability of the compounds of this disclosure to modulate the activity of Kv7 potassium channels, specifically Kv7.2 / 7.3 and Kv7.5.

[0469] Table 1: [Table 14] [Table 15] [Table 16]

[0470] conclusion The compounds of this disclosure can modulate the activity of the Kv7 channel. As shown in the examples, the compounds of the present invention exhibit lower EC values ​​for Kv7.2 / Kv7.3 channels compared to Kv7.5 channels. 50 The compounds of the present invention provide a value. Furthermore, as shown in the examples, the compounds of the present invention provide a greater efficacy value for the Kv7.2 / Kv7.3 channel compared to the Kv7.5 channel. Thus, it can be concluded that the compounds of the present invention are a subtype of selective Kv7 modulator that is more selective for the Kv7.2 / Kv7.3 channel than for the Kv7.5 channel.
