Description

6-aminopyrazolopyrimidine compounds and their medical uses

[0001] The present invention relates to a 6-aminopyrazolopyrimidine compound having NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitory activity or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a pharmaceutical composition containing the same, and medical uses thereof.

[0002] NLRP3 (NOD-, LRR- and pyrin domain-containing protein 3) is a pattern recognition receptor belonging to the NLR (NOD-like receptors) family, and is expressed not only in phagocytic cells such as macrophages and microglia but also in non-immune cells such as glomerular epithelial cells and renal tubular epithelial cells.

[0003] NLRP3 recognizes DAMPs (Danger Associated Molecular Patterns), which are molecular patterns specific to cytotoxic factors (ATP, HMGB1, S100, uric acid crystals, silica, etc.), and PAMPs (Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns), which are molecular patterns specific to pathogenic microorganisms (viruses, bacteria, fungi, etc.), and is activated by binding to these molecules.

[0004] Activated NLRP3 associates with the adaptor protein ASC (Apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase recruitment domain) and the cysteine ​​protease caspase-1 through protein-protein interactions to form the intracellular protein complex NLRP3 inflammasome. Upon NLRP3 inflammasome formation, caspase-1 within the complex is converted to its active form, which converts proIL-1β, the precursor of the proinflammatory cytokine IL-1β, to active IL-1β, and proIL-18, the precursor of IL-18, to active IL-18. The extracellularly secreted active IL-1β induces inflammatory responses by inducing the production of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines by surrounding cells and activating immune cells such as T cells.

[0005] Increased levels of DAMPs were observed in the brains and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with multiple sclerosis (Non-Patent Document 1), as well as increased caspase-1 expression in lesions and IL-1β levels in the cerebrospinal fluid (Non-Patent Document 2). Furthermore, activated microglia are present in lesions during the chronic progression of this disease (Non-Patent Document 3). Activated microglia stimulated by DAMPs produce inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, inducing neuroinflammation and neuronal damage (Non-Patent Document 4). Therefore, the NLRP3 inflammasome is thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis.

[0006] Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein (MOG) was generated by sensitizing mice to MOG. 35-55 EAE model mice exhibit motor dysfunction similar to that seen in multiple sclerosis. However, NLRP3 knockout mice exhibited no significant motor deficits. 35-55 In EAE models, the onset of motor dysfunction is suppressed (Non-Patent Document 5). Furthermore, in cuprizone model mice created by administering the copper chelating compound cuprizone to mice, central nervous system demyelination similar to multiple sclerosis develops, but the progression of demyelination is delayed in NLRP3 knockout mice (Non-Patent Document 6). JC-171, an NLPR3 inflammasome inhibitor, inhibits MOG 35-55 In an EAE model, administration after the onset of the disease suppressed motor dysfunction (Non-Patent Document 7). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be a therapeutic agent for multiple sclerosis.

[0007] Increased expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes has been reported in the kidneys of patients with chronic kidney disease (Non-Patent Documents 8 and 9). Furthermore, in a 5 / 6 nephrectomy model, a preclinical chronic kidney disease model, NLRP3 knockout has been reported to suppress proteinuria and tubulointerstitial fibrosis (Non-Patent Document 10). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for chronic kidney disease.

[0008] Increased expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes has been reported in the intestines of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (e.g., ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease) (Non-Patent Document 11). IL-1β, produced by NLRP3 activation, is elevated in the intestinal mucosa of IBD patients, and increased IL-1β secretion from the colon has been shown to be positively correlated with worsening disease (Non-Patent Document 11). Furthermore, dysfunction of CARD8, which negatively regulates inflammasome activity, has been reported to increase susceptibility to Crohn's disease and to activate the NLRP3 inflammasome, leading to enhanced IL-1β production from monocytes (Non-Patent Document 12). In a TNBS-induced colitis model, NLRP3 deficiency has been reported to suppress intestinal pathology (Non-Patent Document 13). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for inflammatory bowel disease.

[0009] Increased expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes has been reported in atherosclerotic areas of the coronary arteries of patients with myocardial infarction (Non-Patent Document 14). Furthermore, it has been reported that NLRP3 knockout suppresses lesion formation in high-fat diet-fed low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDL) receptor-deficient mice, a model of atherosclerosis (Non-Patent Document 15). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for atherosclerosis.

[0010] Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS) is a collective term for autoinflammatory diseases caused by activating mutations in the NLRP3 gene. It is classified into three disease types: mild familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS), moderate Muckle-Wells syndrome (MWS), and severe chronic infantile neurologic cutaneous and articular syndrome (CINCA) or neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID) (Non-Patent Document 16). More than 200 mutations in the NLRP3 gene have been reported in CAPS (Non-Patent Document 17). These NLRP3 gene mutations result in the formation and activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome even in the absence of activating signals. Mice expressing CAPS-associated NLRP3 mutations exhibit systemic, lethal inflammation dependent on the NLRP3 inflammasome and downstream signaling molecules IL-1β and IL-18 (Non-Patent Document 18). In mice expressing CAPS-associated NLRP3 mutations, the NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor CY-09 suppressed systemic, lethal inflammation and improved survival (Non-Patent Document 19). These results suggest that NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors could be used to treat CAPS.

[0011] Increased expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes has been reported in the liver tissue of patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) (Non-Patent Document 20). Furthermore, it has been reported that NLRP3 knockout suppresses liver fibrosis in a choline-deficient, amino acid-substituted diet model of NASH (Non-Patent Document 20). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for NASH.

[0012] In gout and gouty arthritis, uric acid crystals deposited in joints and periarticular tissues induce inflammation (Non-Patent Document 21). Uric acid crystals activate NLRP3 in macrophages, leading to the production of IL-1β and IL-18 (Non-Patent Document 22). In an arthritis model induced by intra-articular uric acid injection, the NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor OLT1177 suppressed arthritis (Non-Patent Document 23). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for gout and gouty arthritis.

[0013] Increased expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes has been reported in the synovial membrane and peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (Non-Patent Document 24). Increased expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes has also been reported in the synovial membrane of collagen-induced arthritis, a model of rheumatoid arthritis (Non-Patent Document 25). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for rheumatoid arthritis.

[0014] Trinitrochlorobenzene, which induces contact dermatitis, increases IL-1β production from human skin keratinocytes through NLRP3 activation, and it has been reported that NLRP3 knockout suppresses the onset of dermatitis in a trinitrochlorobenzene-induced contact dermatitis model (Non-Patent Document 26). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for contact dermatitis.

[0015] Increased expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes has been reported in the tears and ocular surface of patients with dry eye (Non-Patent Documents 27, 28). Furthermore, when cultured human corneal epithelial cells are subjected to hyperosmotic stress to induce dry eye, increased expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes and increased IL-1β production have been observed, and knockdown of the NLRP3 gene has been reported to suppress IL-1β production (Non-Patent Document 28). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for dry eye.

[0016] Increased expression of the ASC domain of the NLRP3 inflammasome has been reported in macrophages and neutrophils infiltrating the myocardial tissue of patients with acute myocardial infarction (Non-Patent Document 29). Furthermore, in an ischemia-reperfusion model of myocardial infarction, increased expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes was observed in the infarcted area, and knockdown of the NLRP3 gene was reported to reduce infarct size and myocardial contractility (Non-Patent Document 30). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for ischemic heart disease, including acute myocardial infarction.

[0017] It has been reported that the expression of IL-1β or IL-18 is increased in the serum and glomeruli of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) (Non-Patent Documents 31, 32), and that NLRP3 gene expression and IL-1β production are increased in macrophages (Non-Patent Document 33). Furthermore, in Nlrp3-R258W mice with an activating mutation in the NLRP3 gene, pristane administration exacerbates lupus nephritis-like symptoms (Non-Patent Document 34). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for SLE.

[0018] In addition to the above diseases, diseases for which NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are expected to be effective include systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (Non-Patent Document 35), recurrent pericarditis (Non-Patent Document 36), adult-onset Still's disease (e.g., hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and macrophage activation syndrome) (Non-Patent Document 37), Schnitzler syndrome (Non-Patent Document 38), IL-1 receptor antagonist molecule deficiency (Non-Patent Document 39), familial Mediterranean fever (Non-Patent Document 40), mevalonate kinase deficiency (Non-Patent Document 40), hyper-IgD syndrome (Non-Patent Document 40), TNF receptor-associated periodic syndrome (Non-Patent Document 40), Behçet's disease (Non-Patent Document 41), and lung cancer (Non-Patent Document 42). The therapeutic effects of anti-IL-1β antibodies such as canakinumab and IL-1 inhibitors such as rilonacept have been reported for these diseases. Because the NLRP3 inflammasome is involved in the production of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are thought to be therapeutic agents for these diseases.

[0019] It has been reported that the NLRP3 rs10733113 genotype is significantly elevated in psoriasis patients, increasing their susceptibility to psoriasis (Non-Patent Document 43). Furthermore, it has been reported that NLRP3 deficiency suppresses psoriasis symptoms in an IL-23-induced psoriasis model (Non-Patent Document 44). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for psoriasis.

[0020] Gout, atherosclerosis, and chronic kidney disease, which are associated with NLRP3 inflammasome activation, are associated with hypertension. NLRP3 deficiency has been reported to suppress hypertension in a mouse left renal artery stenosis model (Non-Patent Document 45). Furthermore, the NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor MCC950 has been reported to suppress hypertension in a deoxycorticosterone acetate-treated mouse model (Non-Patent Document 46). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for hypertension.

[0021] It has been reported that NLRP3 expression is elevated in the proliferative membranes of patients with diabetic retinopathy (Non-Patent Document 47). Furthermore, NLRP3 expression is elevated in the STZ-induced diabetic retinopathy model (Non-Patent Document 48). In this model, it has been reported that downregulation of NLRP3 expression by NLRP3 shRNA results in decreased IL-1β and VEGF secretion, increased ganglion cell mass, and recovery from retinal damage (Non-Patent Document 49). Based on these results, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for diabetic retinopathy.

[0022] NLRP3 inflammasome activation occurs in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and APP / PS1 mice, a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease. NLRP3 deficiency in APP / PS1 mice suppresses the development of spatial memory impairment (Non-Patent Document 50). The NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 suppresses NLRP3 activation in microglia and improves cognitive dysfunction in APP / PS1 mice (Non-Patent Document 51). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for Alzheimer's disease and MCI.

[0023] In the substantia nigra of Parkinson's disease patients and mice injected with α-synuclein preformed fibrils (PFFs), a pathological model of Parkinson's disease, microglia show increased expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related molecules and NLRP3 inflammasome activation (Non-Patent Document 52). The NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 suppresses NLRP3 activation in the substantia nigra and inhibits dopamine neuron death in α-synuclein PFF-injected mice (Non-Patent Document 52). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for Parkinson's disease.

[0024] In patients with Huntington's disease, the cerebrospinal fluid concentration of IL-1β, an NLRP3 inflammasome-associated cytokine, is increased (Non-Patent Document 53). In R6 / 2 mice, a pathological model of Huntington's disease, NLRP3 inflammasome expression in the striatum is increased (Non-Patent Document 54). The NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 suppresses NLRP3 inflammasome activation in the striatum of R6 / 2 mice, suppressing neuronal death in the striatum and slowing symptom progression (Non-Patent Document 55). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for Huntington's disease.

[0025] In the spinal cords of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), expression of the NLRP3 inflammasome, IL-18, and activated caspase 1 is increased (Non-Patent Document 56). In the spinal cords of ALS model mice, SOD1G93A mice and TDP-43Q331K mice, mRNA expression of IL-1β, Nlrp3, Pycard, and Casp1 is increased (Non-Patent Document 57). The NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 suppresses SOD1G93A- and TDP-43-induced NLRP3 activation in microglia, reducing IL-1β production (Non-Patent Document 57). In SOD1G93A mice, deficiency of IL-1β or caspase 1 extends survival, and administration of an IL-1β receptor antibody inhibits disease progression and extends survival (Non-Patent Document 58). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential treatments for ALS.

[0026] The expression of the NLRP3 inflammasome is increased in the brain tissue and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) (Non-Patent Documents 59, 60). In the brain tissue of TBI model rats, the expression of the NLRP3 inflammasome is also increased, along with the expression of IL-1β and IL-18 (Non-Patent Document 61). The NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 suppresses IL-1β production and suppresses the development of neurological symptoms after brain trauma in TBI model mice (Non-Patent Document 62). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for TBI.

[0027] Expression of the NLRP3 inflammasome, IL-1β, and IL-18 is increased in the brain tissue of patients with cerebral infarction, mice with middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), a model of cerebral infarction, and rats with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) (Non-Patent Documents 63, 64). Furthermore, the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 demonstrated neuroprotective effects in MCAO and ICH rat models. Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage.

[0028] Expression of the NLRP3 inflammasome is increased in the brain tissue of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and in pilocarpine-induced epilepsy model mice (Non-Patent Documents 65 and 66). Furthermore, in pilocarpine-induced epilepsy model mice, NLRP3 inflammasome deficiency and administration of the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 suppressed hippocampal neuronal apoptosis, which is the cause of epilepsy (Non-Patent Document 66). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for epilepsy.

[0029] In the peripheral blood of patients with depression, NLRP3 inflammasome expression levels, IL-1β levels, and IL-18 levels are increased, and IL-1β levels correlate with depression symptom scores (Non-Patent Document 67). In pathological models of depression, such as LPS-induced models, chronic stress-induced models, and social defeat models, increased expression of NLRP3 inflammasome, IL-1β, and IL-18 in brain tissue and NLRP3 inflammasome activation occur (Non-Patent Documents 68, 69, 70). Furthermore, in pathological models, administration of the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 or NLRP3 deficiency has been shown to improve depressive symptoms (Non-Patent Documents 69, 70). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for depression.

[0030] In the peripheral blood of patients with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), NLRP3 inflammasome expression levels, IL-1β, and IL-18 concentrations are increased (Non-Patent Document 71). In the maternal immune activation (MIA) model, administration of PolyIC to pregnant animals causes ASD symptoms in offspring. In this model, IL-1β expression is increased in the fetal brain, and administration of the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 to the mother suppresses the onset of ASD symptoms in offspring (Non-Patent Document 72). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for ASD.

[0031] In the spinal cord of mice with spinal cord injury, NLRP3 inflammasome and IL-1β expression are increased, indicating NLRP3 activation (Non-Patent Documents 73 and 74). Furthermore, administration of the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 to mice after spinal cord injury suppresses NLRP3 activation and IL-1β expression in the spinal cord, promoting recovery of motor function (Non-Patent Document 73). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be therapeutic agents for spinal cord injury.

[0032] In an intestinal perforation model of sepsis, increased expression and activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome or IL-1β in the brain occurs, resulting in hippocampal neuronal damage and memory impairment, a symptom of septic encephalopathy (Non-Patent Documents 75 and 76). Administration of the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 to the intestinal perforation model suppresses NLRP3 inflammasome activation and improves memory impairment (Non-Patent Document 76). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be therapeutic agents for septic encephalopathy.

[0033] In the chronic constriction injury (CCI) model, an animal model of neuropathic pain, the expression of IL-1β and NLRP3 inflammasome-related molecules is increased in spinal glial cells and neurons (Non-Patent Document 77). Furthermore, in the paclitaxel-induced pain model, a neuropathic pain model of anticancer drug-induced neuropathy, the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related molecules is increased in the dorsal root ganglion and sciatic nerve (Non-Patent Document 78). Furthermore, in an animal model of trigeminal neuralgia, the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome is increased in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord, and deletion of NLRP3 in the spinal cord suppresses spinal NLRP3 inflammasome activation and allodynia in response to mechanical stimulation (Non-Patent Document 79). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be potential therapeutic agents for neuropathic pain.

[0034] Mice infected with SARS-CoV-2 exhibit increased expression of IL-1β and NLRP3 inflammasome-related molecules in lung tissue. In contrast, NLRP3 knockout mice exhibit no increase in these expression levels, and severe respiratory inflammation caused by SARS-CoV-2 is suppressed. Furthermore, administration of the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 to SARS-CoV-2-infected mice suppresses NLRP3 inflammasome activation and excessive immune responses in the lungs (Non-Patent Document 80). Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors are considered to be a potential treatment for COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2.
