Description

Compound for treating influenza and preparation method thereof Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of medicinal chemistry, and specifically relates to a class of compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing the same, their use as drugs for preventing and / or treating influenza, and methods for preparing the same. Background Art

[0002] Influenza viruses are RNA viruses of the family Orthomyxoviridae. Based on the antigenic and genetic characteristics of the nucleoprotein (NP) and matrix protein (M) of the virion, influenza viruses are mainly divided into three types: A, B, and C, also known as types A, B, and C. Among them, influenza A and B viruses are the main viruses that cause seasonal pandemics. Type C virus mostly exists in a scattered form, mainly invading infants and young children, generally does not cause epidemics, but can infect humans and pigs. Influenza A virus has a wide range of hosts, including wild waterfowl, pigs, etc., and there is a possibility of transmission from animals to humans, while also spreading among humans, causing a global influenza virus pandemic. The elderly, children, and people with weakened immune systems will develop severe respiratory symptoms when infected with type A and type B viruses, and in severe cases, death. Recent data show that the annual infection rate worldwide is 15%, and some patients require hospitalization.

[0003] Currently, vaccines are the most effective means of reducing influenza infection rates, but they are not effective for everyone. Globally, vaccines are effective in approximately 50-60% of the population, and nearly 60% of the elderly. Furthermore, due to vaccine design, viral mutations, and low vaccination rates in some countries, combined with peak influenza season, there is a potential for influenza pandemics.

[0004] Anti-influenza drugs are an important means of treating and preventing influenza viruses, especially for those at high risk and those with severe infections. Currently approved drugs include neuraminidase (NA) inhibitors including oseltamivir, zanamivir, peramivir, and laninamivir, which are also standard treatments; hemagglutinin (HA) inhibitors including arbidol; M2 ion channel blockers including amantadine and its derivatives; and endonuclease (PA) inhibitors including mabaloxavir.

[0005] Influenza virus proteins include the nucleocapsid protein NP and the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) complex: PA-PB1-PB2. There is one of these complexes at the end of each viral genome, where PB1 is involved in RNA replication, PB2 is involved in cap recognition, and PA is involved in nucleolytic endonucleolysis. The complex composed of the three subunits jointly completes RNA replication. Therefore, in theory, any protein of the RdRp complex PA-PB1-PB2 can inhibit influenza virus replication. There are already marketed drugs for the PB1 and PA subunits, and there is a marketed drug for the PA subunit. There is currently no marketed drug for the PB2 subunit. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop inhibitors targeting the PA subunit and / or PB2 subunit to address unmet clinical needs. Summary of the Invention

[0056] definition

[0057] Unless otherwise indicated, the following terms used in this application have the following meanings. A particular term should not be construed as undefined or unclear unless specifically defined, but rather should be understood according to its ordinary meaning in the art. When a trade name appears in this document, it is intended to refer to the corresponding commercial product or its active ingredient.

[0058] Unless otherwise specified, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" or "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a salt that is suitable for use in contact with mammalian tissues, particularly human tissues, without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, etc., and is commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio, within the scope of sound medical judgment. For example, pharmaceutically acceptable salts of amines, carboxylic acids, and other types of compounds are well known in the art. Such salts can be prepared in situ during the final isolation and purification of the compounds of the present invention, or separately by reacting a free base or free acid with a suitable reagent.

[0059] Unless otherwise specified, the term "isotopic derivative" means that the compounds of the present invention may exist in an isotopically labeled or enriched form, containing one or more atoms whose atomic mass or mass number is different from the atomic mass or mass number of the largest atom found in nature. Isotopes can be radioactive or non-radioactive isotopes. Isotopes commonly used as isotopic labels are: hydrogen isotopes, 2 H and 3 H; Carbon isotope: 13 C and 14 C; Chlorine isotope: 35 Cl and 37 Cl; Fluorine isotope: 18 F; Iodine isotope: 123 I and 125 I; Nitrogen isotopes: 13 N and 15 N; oxygen isotopes: 15 O, 17 O and 18 O and sulfur isotopes 35 These isotope-labeled compounds can be used to study the distribution of pharmaceutical molecules in tissues. 3 H and 13 C, because they are easy to label and detect, they are more widely used. Some heavy isotopes, such as deuterium ( 2 H), substitution can enhance metabolic stability and prolong half-life, thereby achieving the goal of reducing dosage and providing therapeutic advantages. Isotope-labeled compounds are generally synthesized from labeled starting materials using known synthetic techniques similar to those used for synthesizing non-isotope-labeled compounds.

[0060] Unless otherwise specified, the term "stereoisomer" refers to compounds that have the same chemical constitution but differ in the way the atoms or groups are arranged in space. Stereoisomers include optical isomers, enantiomers, diastereomers, conformers (rotamers), geometric isomers (cis / trans) isomers, atropisomers, etc. Any resulting mixture of stereoisomers can be separated into pure or substantially pure geometric isomers, enantiomers, diastereomers based on the differences in the physicochemical properties of the components, for example, by chromatography and / or fractional crystallization.

[0061] Unless otherwise specified, the term "tautomer" refers to structural isomers of different energies that are interconvertible through a low energy barrier. If tautomerism is possible (e.g., in solution), a chemical equilibrium of the tautomers can be achieved. For example, proton tautomers (also known as prototropic tautomers) include interconversions that occur via proton migration, such as keto-enol isomerization and imine-enamine isomerization. Valence tautomers include interconversions that occur via reorganization of some of the bonding electrons.

[0062] Unless otherwise indicated, the structural formulas described herein include all isomeric forms (e.g., enantiomers, diastereomers, and geometric isomers (or conformers)): for example, R and S configurations containing asymmetric centers, (Z) and (E) isomers of double bonds, and (Z) and (E) conformers. Therefore, individual stereochemical isomers of the compounds of the present invention or mixtures of their enantiomers, diastereomers, or geometric isomers (or conformers) are within the scope of the present invention.

[0063] The compounds of the present invention also include solvates or solvates thereof. Unless otherwise specified, the terms "solvate" and "solvate" refer to the physical association of the compounds of the present invention with one or more solvent molecules (whether organic or inorganic). This physical association includes hydrogen bonding. In some cases, for example, when one or more solvent molecules are incorporated into the crystal lattice of a crystalline solid, the solvate will be able to be separated. The solvent molecules in the solvate may exist in a regular and / or disordered arrangement. The solvate may contain stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amounts of solvent molecules. "Solvate" encompasses solution phase and separable solvates. Exemplary solvates include, but are not limited to, hydrates, ethanolates, methanolates, and isopropanolates. Solvation methods are well known in the art.

[0064] The term "optionally" or "optionally" means that the subsequently described event or circumstance may but need not occur, and that the description includes instances where the event or circumstance occurs and instances where it does not.

[0065] The word "comprise" or "include" and its English variations such as comprises or comprising should be understood as having an open and non-exclusive meaning, ie, "including but not limited to".

[0066] The term "subject," which may also be referred to as an "individual" or "subject," refers to a cell or animal, including but not limited to mammals, such as laboratory animals or humans. An "effective amount" refers to an amount of a compound or pharmaceutical composition described herein that is sufficient to achieve the intended application, including but not limited to the treatment of a disease or the alleviation of symptoms. In some embodiments, for example, the amount is a dose that can induce a specific response in cells, or a dose that can exert a therapeutic effect on a disease in a model animal. The specific amount will vary depending on, for example, the specific compound selected, the type of subject and their age / existing health status, the dosing regimen followed, the severity of the disease, whether it is administered in combination with other agents, the timing of administration, the tissue to which it is administered, and the physical delivery system used to carry it.

[0067] Some compounds in the present application are optically active. The compounds in the present application may be racemates, optical isomers or mixtures thereof. The synthesis of optical isomers in the compounds in the present application may be prepared from starting materials of optical isomers or by separation of racemates.

[0068] Unless otherwise specified, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier", also known as "pharmaceutically acceptable excipient" or "pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle", refers to a medium generally recognized in the field of delivering biologically active agents to animals (particularly, mammals). Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are formulated according to many factors that are well within the scope of those of ordinary skill in the art. These include (but are not limited to) the type and nature of the active agent being formulated, the subject to whom the composition containing the agent is to be administered, the intended route of administration of the composition, and the targeted therapeutic indication. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include aqueous and non-aqueous liquid media, as well as various solid and semi-solid dosage forms. The preparation of the pharmaceutical compositions described herein, including but not limited to, for example, mixing the compound described in the first aspect or the second aspect, or its tautomer, stereoisomer, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

Cells were cultured in a medium containing 10% FBS, 5 μg / mL Blasticidin, and 400 μg / mL Geneticin. Prior to the assay, cells were induced with 1 μg / mL doxycycline for 48 hours. On the day of the experiment, the induced cells were resuspended and plated on coverslips before use, with approximately 5 × 10 cells per 3.5 cm cell culture dish. 5 Cells were cultured in medium without blasticin and geneticin. Compounds were diluted three-fold to five test concentrations, with a final DMSO concentration of 0.1% in the culture medium. The coverslip was removed from the cell culture dish, and the recording electrodes were placed in contact with the cells using a microelectrode manipulator under an inverted microscope. Drug administration was initiated after the hERG current recorded from the cells stabilized. Each drug concentration was allowed to act for 5 minutes (current stabilization) before the next concentration was tested, with cells treated sequentially from low to high concentrations. The experimental results are shown in Table 2.

[0160] Table-2

[0161] The test results showed that compound 4-1 had very low inhibition on hERG, suggesting that it had no potential cardiotoxicity risk or had very low cardiotoxicity risk.

[0162] Test Example 8: Evaluation of the efficacy of compounds in an influenza A virus H1N1 mouse infection model

[0163] Mice were inoculated intranasally with influenza virus (H1N1, A / PR / 8 / 34). Compounds were administered orally starting 48 hours after infection, twice daily for 7 consecutive days. The anti-influenza A (H1N1) virus activity in this model was evaluated by observing changes in mouse body weight. SPF-protected BALB / c female mice, 6-8 weeks old, were used. Experiments began after at least 3 days of acclimatization upon arrival. The day of infection was designated as day 0. One day prior, animals were randomly divided into 18 groups, with 6 mice per group. On the day of inoculation (day 0), animals were anesthetized with an intraperitoneal injection of 50 mL / kg of Zolta 50 (30 mg / kg) and 6 mg / kg of Xylazine Hydrochloride Injection II (both injection volumes were 5 mL / kg). The H1N1 (A / PR / 8 / 34) virus was then inoculated intranasally with a 50 μL inoculum. From day 2 to day 8, 5 mg / kg of the test compound was administered orally twice daily. The first dose was 48 hours after infection. The mice were observed daily and their body weights were recorded for 14 days to measure the rate of weight loss.

[0164] The results showed that compound 4-1 could achieve significant recovery of the weight of infected animals on day 9 after administration, with the weight loss rate decreasing by 2.9% compared with that before virus inoculation (Day 0), and the recovery effect was more significant than that of mabaloxavir (the weight loss rate of animals on day 9 decreased by 11.46% compared with that before virus inoculation (Day 0)) (p<0.05); further recovery of the weight of infected animals could be achieved on day 10 (the weight loss rate decreased by 0.21% compared with that before virus inoculation (Day 0)), and the recovery effect was more significant than that of mabaloxavir (the weight loss rate of animals on day 10 decreased by 8.04% compared with that before virus inoculation (Day 0)) (p<0.05); on day 11, the weight of animals in the compound 4-1 group increased compared with that on Day 0, and the weight of animals also gradually increased in the following days, which shows that compound 4-1 has good efficacy and can achieve rapid and continuous recovery of the weight of infected animals. However, the weight of animals in the mabaloxavir group did not exceed the weight before administration (Day 0) until day 13. 0). The experimental results are shown in Figure 1.

[0165] The test results showed that after viral infection, animals given compound 4-1 of the present application achieved significantly faster and better weight recovery than those given mabaloxavir at the same dose, demonstrating the compound's superior pharmacodynamic activity and rapid improvement in the animals' condition. Furthermore, compound 4-1 effectively reduced viral titers in the animals' lungs, achieving a 100% survival rate.

[0166] Test Example 9: Influenza virus cytopathic effect (CPE) and cytotoxicity experiments

[0167] The half effective concentration (EC50) of the compound was determined 50 ) values ​​were used to evaluate the antiviral activity and cytotoxic CC of the compounds against influenza virus (H1N1, A / PR / 8 / 34). 50 . Cytopathic effect assay is widely used to determine the protective effect of compounds on virus-infected cells to reflect the antiviral activity of compounds. MDCK cells were seeded into cell culture plates at a density of 15,000 cells per well and then cultured overnight in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator. The compounds were diluted in 3-fold increments, with 8 test concentration points, and the final DMSO concentration in the culture medium was 0.5%. Influenza virus (H1N1, A / PR / 8 / 34, MOI = 0.0067) was then added. Virus control wells (DMSO and virus added, no compound added), cell control wells (DMSO added, no compound and virus added), and culture medium control wells (only culture medium added, no cells, virus and compound added) were set up. The cell plate was cultured in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 5 days. After 5 days of culture, the cell viability was detected using the cell viability detection kit CCK8, and the raw data was used to calculate the antiviral activity and cytotoxicity of the compound. The antiviral activity of the compound is expressed by the inhibition rate (%) of the compound on the cytoviral effect caused by the virus. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0168] % inhibition rate = (average value of compound-treated wells - average value of virus control) / (average value of cell-treated wells - average value of virus control) The inhibition rate of the compound was analyzed by nonlinear fitting using GraphPad Prism software to obtain the EC value of the compound. 50 value.

[0169] The cytotoxicity of the compound is expressed by the inhibition rate (%) of the compound on cell activity. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0170] % inhibition rate = (average value of compound-treated wells - average value of culture medium control) / (average value of cell control wells - average value of culture medium control). The experimental results are shown in Table 3.

[0171] Table-3 CPE and cytotoxicity test results Note: + indicates >20nM, ++ indicates 10nM-20nM, +++ indicates 5nM-10nM, and ++++ indicates <5nM.

[0172] The test results show that the compound 4-1 of the present application and its metabolite (compound A) have less effect on cell viability, that is, less cytotoxicity, but have significantly better inhibitory activity against viral replication, indicating that the compound has better efficacy and better safety.

[0173] Test Example 10: Human CYP enzyme inhibition study

[0174] Human liver microsomes (Corning, CYP1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 3A4-M) were removed from a -80°C freezer and thawed on ice. 20 μL of a CYP substrate mixture (phenacetin / diclofenac / smephenytoin / dextromethorphan / midazolam mixture) was added to the assay plate. 2 μL of the test compound and positive control compound were added to the corresponding wells. 158 μL of the human liver microsome working solution (0.253 mg / mL) was added to all wells of the assay plate and preheated in a 37°C water bath for 10 minutes.

[0175] Prepare NADPH cofactor solution (BONTAC, Cat. No. BT04) and add 20 μL of 10 mM NADPH cofactor to all wells. Mix and incubate in a 37°C water bath for 10 minutes. Terminate the reaction by adding 400 μL of stop solution. Centrifuge the sample at 4000 rpm for 20 minutes to precipitate the protein. Transfer 200 μL of the supernatant to 100 μL of HPLC water and shake for 10 minutes before analyzing the sample by LC / MS / MS.

[0176] Results: The IC50 values ​​of compound A of the present application against five major human CYP molecular species were all greater than 50 μM.
