Description

3,4-Dihydro-2H-benzo[b][1,4]dioxepane compounds, preparation methods and medical uses thereof Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medical technology, and specifically relates to 3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[b][1,4]dioxepane compounds represented by general formula (I), their preparation methods and pharmaceutical compositions containing them, as well as their use as α4β7 integrin inhibitors in the treatment and / or prevention of diseases related to α4β7 integrin activity. Background Art

[0002] Integrins are non-covalent heterodimers composed of α and β subunits. Twenty-four functionally distinct integrin receptors, comprising 18 α subunits and 8 β subunits, have been discovered in mammals. As adhesion receptors, integrins regulate signaling between cells and their environment through various mechanisms, including protein-protein interactions, conformational changes, and transport, at the plasma membrane. Integrins serve as therapeutic targets for a variety of diseases, including cancer, fibrosis, cardiovascular disease, viral infection, and autoimmune disorders.

[0003] α4β7 integrin, a member of the integrin family, is a cell adhesion receptor, a heterodimer composed of two subunits, α4 and β7. α4β7 integrin is a lymphocyte homing receptor that binds to two ligands, mucosal vascular addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), both of which are expressed in different tissues. The primary ligand for α4β7 is MAdCAM-1, which is thought to be specifically expressed on venular endothelial cells in the intestine and gut-associated lymphoid tissues, with only minimal expression in extraintestinal tissues. VCAM-1 is widely expressed on venular endothelial cells throughout the body, in peripheral lymph nodes, and in the bone marrow. During intestinal inflammation, proinflammatory cytokines such as TNFα, IL-1β, and LPS promote the expression of MAdCAM-1 and VCAM-1. Under normal conditions, α4β7 integrin is in a closed state on T lymphocytes. When T cells pass through the capillaries of the high endothelial venules in the gut-associated lymphoid tissue, L-selectin on the cell surface interacts with cell adhesion molecules, causing them to bind and roll along the endothelial surface. As the flow of T cells slows, the T cell's chemokine receptors are able to fully contact chemokines on the endothelial cells. Chemokines trigger the activation of α4β7 integrin, leading to a firm binding of α4β7 integrin to cell adhesion molecules to regulate lymphocyte migration. These cells may eventually migrate to the intestinal tissue, completing homing.

[0004] Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, nonspecific intestinal inflammatory disease with an unknown etiology, including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). IBD is incurable, lifelong, recurrent, and disabling, and patients require long-term medication and regular follow-up visits. The pathogenesis of IBD is complex, and it is generally believed that it is caused by dysregulation of the mucosal immune response due to dysbiosis of the intestinal epithelial environment, genes, and microbial communities. Its main feature is the infiltration of a large number of inflammatory T cells into the intestinal lamina propria through cell adhesion and transport through the vascular wall, leading to excessive accumulation of intestinal mucosal lymphocytes. Studies have shown that α4β7 inhibitors inhibit T cell homing to the intestine during inflammation and can effectively reduce the accumulation of T cells in the intestine, thereby achieving the effect of treating IBD.

[0005] Currently available drugs targeting α4β7 have drawbacks such as the risk of serious adverse reactions due to their lack of selectivity and high production costs, which are a significant burden for patients who may need lifelong medication. Therefore, the development of selective α4β7 small molecule inhibitors is of great significance for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. Summary of the Invention

[0006] After intensive research, the inventors designed and synthesized a series of 3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[b][1,4]dioxepane compounds, and screened their α4β7 integrin inhibitory activity. The research results showed that this type of compound has a potent and selective inhibitory effect on α4β7 integrin. The compound and the pharmaceutical composition containing the compound can be used to treat and / or prevent diseases related to α4β7 integrin activity, such as inflammatory bowel disease.

[0912] Effect Example 4: Evaluating the distribution of compounds in vivo based on tissue distribution method

[0913] 1. Preparation of test samples

[0914] Using a graduated stoppered test tube or a quantitative container, use DMSO and PEG400 as solvents (prepared with water for injection or NS). First, add 10% of the total volume of DMSO to dissolve the drug. Once completely dissolved, add 20% of PEG400. Mix thoroughly and finally adjust to the total volume with water for injection. Sonicate until a uniform solution is obtained. Once prepared, label and set aside. Prepare immediately before use, shaking thoroughly before each administration. The preparation method for the remaining compounds is the same.

[0915] 2. Animal Dosing

[0916] The experiments were conducted after the experimental animals (Weitonglihua (Beijing) Biotechnology Co., Ltd.) were acclimated and the animals were fasted (>12 h) but not deprived of water.

[0917] Weigh the animals before dosing and group them according to their weight, with a weight difference of no more than 3g between groups. Serial numbers should be assigned. During dosing, if animals choke on the drug, struggle, or experience inaccurate dosing, or other clinical abnormalities, they should be promptly replaced with a spare animal to ensure experimental accuracy. If animals die or experience abnormal conditions during blood collection after dosing, these should be recorded and the animals will not be replaced.

[0918] 3. Tissue Sample Collection and Processing

[0919] After blood collection, all animals were euthanized without perfusion. The duodenum, ileum, colon and liver tissues were collected from the animals. The duodenum, ileum and colon tissues were cut open to remove the intestinal contents, and then rinsed with pre-cooled saline and dried with filter paper. The tissues were weighed (0.1-0.3 g) and chopped into pieces. Pre-cooled saline was added to the duodenum, ileum, colon and liver at a weight ratio of 1:4. After being homogenized by a tissue homogenizer, they were frozen in a -80°C refrigerator for use in determining the drug concentration in the tissue.

[0920] 4. Data statistics and processing

[0921] Analyst 1.6.3 software or MassLynx V4.2 SCN977 data processing software was used to integrate the analyte and internal standard to determine the peak area. A weighted (1 / x²) least-squares regression was performed, with the analyte concentration as the abscissa and the peak area ratio of the analyte to the internal standard as the ordinate. The resulting linear regression equation constituted the standard curve. The test response of the analyte or the response ratio of the analyte to the internal standard (dependent variable y) was substituted into the regression equation to determine x, which was the plasma concentration of the analyte.

[0922] Mas Studio software (or other alternative software) was used to perform statistical analysis on the blood drug concentration to obtain the drug-time curve of the test product and the T 1 / 2z 、C max 、T max , AUC 0-t , CLz, Vz and other main pharmacokinetic parameters.

[0926] Five 6-week-old female Balb / c donor mice (Wei Tong Li Hua (Beijing) Biotechnology Co., Ltd.) were sacrificed and spleens were harvested from these female Balb / c mice. Spleens were washed in ice-cold sterile sorting buffer (PBS (Gibco, Catalog No. 10010023) containing 2% FBS (Gibco, Catalog No. 10099-141C). Cells were kept on ice for all procedures except the grinding procedure, which was performed at room temperature. Spleens were prepared into a single-cell suspension by wetting a 70 μm filter (FALCON, Catalog No. 352350), placing the spleen in the filter, and triturating with the handle of a syringe. After complete trituration, the filter was rinsed, and the cells were transferred to a centrifuge tube. Centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, the supernatant discarded, and the cells resuspended in PBS.

[0927] 2. Stimulate cells with 30 U / mL rIL-2 and 0.2 μM retinoic acid (Sigma-Aldrich, Cat. No. R2625) and anti-CD3 / CD28 beads. Cells were plated in 12-well plates at a density of 1.5 × 10 6 / mL culture, incubate at 37 ° C, 5% CO2 for 5 days and collect the cells. Prepare mouse T cell culture as day 0. On day 1, observe the cell density. If the proliferation is too dense, transfer the cells to a new 12-well plate for culture. On day 2 and 4, add fresh culture medium while maintaining the concentration of stimulating factors (retinoic acid and IL-2) to expand the cultured cells as needed. Collect cells on day 5 to determine α4β7 + Cell purity was measured and T cells were stained with CFSE (Biolegend, Cat. No. 423801).

[0928] 3. 30 minutes after administration, cells were injected into the tail vein of mice. After culture, CFSE dye (stock concentration is 5mM) working solution with a final concentration of 2.5μM was added to the cultured T cells that highly expressed α4β7 (cell density was adjusted to 10-100×10 6 / mL), incubate in the dark for 20 minutes, then add 1mL of 1640 complete medium, incubate in the dark for 10 minutes, centrifuge at 1000 rpm at room temperature for 5 minutes, and discard the supernatant.

[0929] 4. Use trypan blue staining to determine if the cell viability is greater than 90% and inject it into the tail vein of recipient mice.

[0930] 5. CFSE-stained T cells were injected into 8-week-old female Balb / c recipient mice via tail vein injection, with N=5 per group. Each mouse was injected with 5×10 6 cells.

[0931] 6. One hour after tail vein injection, 7-10 Peyer's patches were collected from recipient mice. After Peyer's patches were removed, they were incubated with 0.5 mg / mL collagenase D at 37°C for 15 minutes. The Peyer's patches were squeezed through a 70 μm cell strainer to prepare a single-cell suspension. The suspension was centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, the supernatant discarded, and the cells were washed once with 2 mL of flow cytometry buffer. The suspension was centrifuged at 1000 rpm at 4°C for 5 minutes, the supernatant discarded, and the cells were resuspended in flow cytometry buffer. A CD3 flow cytometry antibody (Biolegend, Cat. No. 100236) was added, and the suspension was incubated at 4°C in the dark for 30 minutes. The cells were centrifuged at 1000 rpm at 4°C for 5 minutes, the supernatant discarded, and the wash cycle repeated twice. The cells were resuspended in flow cytometry buffer and analyzed using a flow cytometer. Lymphocytes from Peyer's patches were collected using a flow cytometer.
