[Technical Field]
[0001] Related applications This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 512,404, filed on 7 July 2023, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference.
[0002] field This disclosure relates to a pharmaceutical composition that acts as an antagonist to both wild-type TRPV4 channels and TRPV4 channels possessing disease-causing activating mutations. [Background technology]
[0003] background Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 4, TRPV4, is a member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily (VenKatachalam and Craig Montell 2007 Annual Reviews Biochemistry (Non-Patent Literature 1)). The TRPV4 gene encodes a non-selective cation channel that is highly permeable to calcium. TRPV4 is activated by a variety of different stimuli, including heat, mechanical stress, and chemicals containing arachidonic acid metabolites. TRPV4 is expressed in numerous different tissues, including, among others, the brain, bladder, skin, heart, lungs, and musculoskeletal tissue.
[0004] The TRPV4 channel is widely expressed in various human cell types. In particular, TRPV4 is expressed in epithelial and endothelial cells, fibroblasts, chondrocytes, nerve cells, and various inflammatory cells (Koivisto et al 2021 NRDD (Non-Patent Literature 2)). TRPV4 has been directly involved in epithelial and endothelial barrier function in relation to lung injury and has been further associated with respiratory diseases through TRPV4-induced ATP release (Koivisto). Genetic and pharmacological studies have linked TRPV4 as a therapeutic target for chronic cough, pulmonary edema, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and pulmonary fibrosis (Grace et al 2017, Pharmacology and Therapeutic (Non-Patent Literature 3)). Genetic knockout of TRPV4 results in decreased osteoclast function and calcium regulation, which is important for bone homeostasis and suggests a role of TRPV4 in osteoporosis and other joint diseases. In TRPV4 knockout mice, inflammatory hyperalgesia and mechanical pain were reduced (J. Neurosci. 2004, 18, 4444-4452 (Non-Patent Literature 4), Qu, et al., 2016 BioMed Research International (Non-Patent Literature 5)), and various functional studies have demonstrated TRPV4 signaling in neuropathic pain. TRPV4 is also expressed in the urothelium and detrusor muscle of the bladder, and its activation causes muscle contraction (Birder et al 2007 J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. (Non-Patent Literature 6)). Consistent with the role of TRPV4 in bladder-related conditions, inhibition of TRPV4 has been shown to improve bladder function in mouse and rat models of cyclophosphamide-induced cystitis (Prog. Biophys. Mol. Biol. 2010, 1, 2-17 (Non-Patent Literature 7)). This provides evidence that TRPV4 is a therapeutic target in multiple diseases, including respiratory diseases, joint diseases, pain, and bladder dysfunction.
[0005] Furthermore, activation of pathogenic mutations in TRPV4 has been shown to cause several severe Mendelian genetic diseases, including a series of skeletal dysplasias (Nishiura et al. 2012 AJMG (Non-Patent Literature 8)) and peripheral neuropathy (Landoure et al. Nature Genetics 2009 (Non-Patent Literature 9)). The mutations causing all of these diseases appear to contribute to the risk of the diseases by increasing calcium influx into cells (Toft-Beterlsen and MacAulay 2021 Cells (Non-Patent Literature 10)), suggesting the therapeutic effect of TRPV4 inhibitors. These observations suggest the benefits of inhibiting TRPV4 in genetic disorders caused by activating mutations, in addition to several different common diseases caused by wild-type receptor activation.
[0006] GSK2798745 advanced to Phase II clinical trials. Further exploration revealed a circulatingly active metabolite (ACS Med. Chem. Lett. 2021,12,9,1498-1502 (Non-Patent Literature 11)), and the maximum clinically administered dose decreased 4.8-fold due to a lower safety margin established by a 3-month canine toxicity study (Am.J.Cardiovasc. Drugs 2019,19,335-342 (Non-Patent Literature 12)). GSK2798745 failed to demonstrate efficacy across several human disease indications. There is currently a need for a drug useful in antagonizing TRPV4. In particular, there is a need for a drug with lower toxicity, improved potency, improved metabolic stability (e.g., against CYP3A4), lower levels of active circulating metabolites, and / or higher safety margins.

In some embodiments, the term “substantially the same” refers to XRPD diffraction patterns having at least three similar signals.
[0120] A process for preparing the compound of formula I is provided as a further embodiment of the present disclosure and is described by the following procedure, where the meaning of general radical is as given above unless otherwise modified.
[0121] When the compound is sufficiently basic or acidic, salts of the compound of formula I may be useful as intermediates for isolating or purifying the compound of formula I. Alternatively, administration of the compound of formula I as a pharmaceutically acceptable acid or basic salt may be appropriate. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include organic acid addition salts formed with acids that form physiologically acceptable anions, such as tosylates, methanesulfonates, acetates, citrates, malons, tartrates, succinates, benzoates, ascorbic acid, α-ketoglutaric acid, and α-glycerophosphate. Suitable inorganic salts, including hydrochlorides, sulfates, nitrates, bicarbonates, and carbonates, may also be formed.
[0122] Salts can be obtained by reacting a sufficiently basic compound, such as an amine, with a suitable acid that provides a physiologically acceptable anion, using standard procedures well known in the art. Alkali metal (e.g., sodium, potassium, or lithium) or alkaline earth metal (e.g., calcium) salts of carboxylic acids can also be produced.
[0123] The compound of Formula I can be formulated as a pharmaceutical composition and administered to mammalian hosts such as human patients in various forms suitable for a selected route of administration, i.e., orally or parenterally, intravenously, intramuscularly, topically or subcutaneously.
[0124] Therefore, the compound may be administered systemically, for example, orally, in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle such as an inert diluent or an assimilated food carrier. They may be encapsulated in hard or soft-shell gelatin capsules, compressed into tablets, or directly incorporated into the patient's diet. In the case of oral therapeutic administration, the active compound may be incorporated with one or more excipients and may be used in the form of ingestible tablets, buccal tablets, lozenges, capsules, elixirs, suspensions, syrups, wafers, etc. Such compositions and preparations should contain at least 0.1% of the active compound. The proportion of compositions and preparations can, of course, be varied and may conveniently be about 2-60% of the weight of a given unit dosage form. The amount of the active compound in such therapeutically useful compositions is such that an effective dosage level is obtained.
[0125] Tablets, lozenges, pills, capsules, etc., may also contain: binders such as gum tragacanth, acacia, corn starch, or gelatin; excipients such as dicalcium phosphate; disintegrants such as corn starch, potato starch, or alginic acid; lubricants such as magnesium stearate; and sweeteners such as sucrose, fructose, lactose, or aspartame, or flavorings such as peppermint, wintergreen oil, or cherry liver. If the unit dosage form is a capsule, it may contain, in addition to the above types of materials, a liquid carrier such as vegetable oil or polyethylene glycol. Various other materials may exist to modify the physical form of the solid unit dosage form, either as a coating or otherwise. For example, tablets, pills, or capsules may be coated with gelatin, wax, shellac, or sugar. The syrup or elixir may contain the active compound as a sweetener, sucrose or fructose, methyl and propylparabens as preservatives, dyes and flavorings, such as cherry or orange flavor. Naturally, any materials used in preparing any unit dosage form must be pharmaceutically acceptable and substantially nontoxic in the amounts used. Furthermore, the active compound may be incorporated into sustained-release formulations and devices.
[0126] The active compound may also be administered intravenously or intraperitoneally by injection or infusion. Solutions of the active compound or its salts can be prepared in water mixed with an optional non-toxic surfactant. Dispersions can also be prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycol, triacetin, and mixtures thereof and / or oils. These preparations contain preservatives to inhibit microbial growth under normal storage and use conditions.
[0127] Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable dosage forms for injection or infusion include sterile aqueous solutions or dispersions or sterile powders containing the active ingredient, suitable for immediate preparation of sterile injections or insoluble solutions, or optionally, dispersions encapsulated in liposomes. In all cases, the final dosage form must be sterile and stable under manufacturing and storage conditions. Liquid carriers may be solvents or liquid dispersion media containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyols (e.g., glycerol, propylene glycol, liquid polyethylene glycol, etc.), vegetable oils, non-toxic glyceryl esters, and suitable mixtures thereof. Inhibition of microbial activity can be achieved by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, such as parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, sorbic acid, thimerosal, etc. In many cases, it is preferable to include isotonic agents, such as sugars, buffers, or sodium chloride. Extension of absorption of injectable compositions can be achieved by using absorption-delaying agents, such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin, in the composition.
[0128] Sterile injectable solutions are prepared by incorporating the required amount of the active compound, along with the various other components mentioned above, into a suitable solvent, and then, if necessary, by subsequent filtration sterilization. In the case of sterile powders for the preparation of sterile injectable solutions, the preferred method of preparation is vacuum drying and freeze-drying techniques, which yield a powder obtained by combining the active ingredients present in a pre-sterile filtered solution with any desired additional ingredients.
[0129] For topical administration, the compounds of the present invention may be applied in their pure form, i.e., when they are liquids. However, it is generally preferable to administer them topically as a composition or formulation, combined with a dermatologically acceptable carrier that may be solid or liquid.
[0130] Useful solid carriers include fine solids such as talc, clay, crystalline cellulose, silica, and alumina. Useful liquid carriers include water, alcohol, glycol, or water-alcohol / glycol mixtures, in which the compound can be dissolved or dispersed at an effective level with the optional aid of a non-toxic surfactant. Auxiliaries such as fragrances and additional antimicrobial agents can be added to optimize the properties for a given use. The resulting liquid composition can be applied from an absorbent pad, used to impregnate bandages and other dressings, or sprayed onto the affected area using a pump or aerosol sprayer.
[0131] Thickeners such as synthetic polymers, fatty acids, fatty acid salts and esters, aliphatic alcohols, modified cellulose, or modified mineral materials can also be used with liquid carriers to form pastes, gels, ointments, soaps, etc., that can be applied directly to the user's skin.
[0132] Examples of useful skin compositions that can be used to deliver compounds of formula I to the skin are known in the art; see, for example, Jacquet et al. (U.S. Patent No. 4,608,392), Geria (U.S. Patent No. 4,992,478), Smith et al. (U.S. Patent No. 4,559,157), and Wortzman (U.S. Patent No. 4,820,508).
[0133] The effective dosage of the compounds of formula I can be determined by comparing their in vitro and in vivo activities in animal models. Methods for extrapolating effective dosages in mice and other animals to humans are known to those skilled in the art; see, for example, U.S. Patent No. 4,938,949.
[0134] The amount of compound, or its activated salt or derivative, required for treatment varies depending not only on the specific salt selected, but also on the route of administration, the nature of the condition being treated, and the age and condition of the subject. It is determined on a case-by-case basis and ultimately at the discretion of the attending physician or clinician.
[0135] The desired dose may be conveniently administered as a single dose or as divided doses administered at appropriate intervals, for example, two, three, four, or more times per day. The divided dose itself may be further divided into several separate doses at loose intervals, for example, multiple inhalations from an inhaler or multiple doses applied to the eye.
[0136] The compounds of this disclosure may be administered alone or in combination with one or more other therapeutic agents selected from the group consisting of endothelin receptor antagonists, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor antagonists, vasopeptidase inhibitors, vasopressin receptor modulators, diuretics, digoxin, beta-blockers, aldosterone antagonists, ionotropes, NSAIDs, nitric oxide donors, calcium channel modulators, muscarinic antagonists, anti-inflammatory steroids, bronchodilators, antihistamines, leukotriene antagonists, HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, non-selective adrenergic receptor and α1-adrenergic receptor biantagonists, type 5 phosphodiesterase inhibitors, and renin inhibitors.
[0137] Accordingly, in some embodiments, the Disclosure also provides compositions comprising a compound of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, at least one other therapeutic agent, and a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent or carrier. The Disclosure also provides a kit comprising a compound of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, at least one other therapeutic agent, packaging materials, and instructions for administering the compound of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and the other therapeutic agent(s) to an animal for treating a condition associated with the modulation of TRPV4.
[0138] The biological activity of the compound can be determined using any suitable assay for evaluating TRPV4 antagonist activity, as well as using any suitable tissue or in vivo model. For example, the biological activity of the compound can be evaluated using the assay described in Example 23 herein, or using the assays and models described in International Patent Application Publication Nos. WO2012 / 174340, WO2012 / 174342, WO2013 / 012500, and WO2017 / 199199.

Then, phenyl-13-iodanediyl diacetate (77.3 g, 1.2 equivalents, 240 mmol) was added all at once, and the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 15 minutes. Potassium carbonate (138 g, 5 equivalents, 1.00 mol) was added, and the resulting mixture was stirred under the same conditions for 10 minutes. The mixture was filtered, the filtrate was washed with 1 M HCl (3x) and brine (1x), dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure (45°C, not below 850 mbar due to the volatility of the product) to approximately 200 mL.

Then, no complete conversion occurred (crude aliquots were prepared). 19(By FNMR) 0.2 equivalents of HEH were added, and the mixture was stirred at 60°C for a further 5 hours. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, filtered to remove silica, and the volume of the filtrate was reduced to 400 mL using a Rota Vaporizer. 1.6 L of pentane was added, the mixture was filtered through a silica pad and concentrated to 200 mL (Fraction A), the pad was washed with 1 L of pentane:MTBE 4:1, and concentrated to 250 mL (Fraction B) (Note: Most of the unreacted HEH can be removed through this filtration). NMR showed that the HEH impurity was still present in both fractions after being stored overnight in the freezer. Both fractions had filtered precipitated HEH. Each fraction was washed with 5% CuSO4 aqueous solution (x2) (Note: This was done to remove any residual HEH) and 3 M HCl (x3) (Note: This is necessary to remove Hantsch's pyridine).
