Description

A benzodiazepine derivative designed based on AI and its uses Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of chemical and pharmaceutical technology, and relates to a drug for the prevention and / or treatment of myopia and its application, specifically to an AI-designed benzodiazepine derivative and its uses. Background Technology

[0002] Myopia, a common refractive error characterized by decreased distance vision, has become a major public health problem in modern society (PNBaird et al., Nature reviews, 2020, 6(99): 1-20). The high incidence and younger age of onset of myopia is closely related to the widespread use of video tools such as computers, mobile phones, and tablets, which leads to a significant increase in screen time and poses a serious threat to the visual health of children and adolescents.

[0003] According to a 2020 study by PNBaird et al. published in *Nature Reviews*, and the WHO's 2020 *World Report on Vision*, the number of people with myopia worldwide has reached 2.6 billion. The *China Eye Health White Paper* shows that the overall incidence of myopia among children and adolescents in my country is 53.6%, and the overall incidence among university students exceeds 90%.

[0004] Myopia disrupts the balance between accommodation and convergence, leading to symptoms such as double vision, blurred vision, eye pain, headache, nausea, eye fatigue, and dryness. Based on disease progression and pathological changes, myopia can be classified into simple myopia and pathological myopia. Simple myopia usually does not cause changes in the fundus, while pathological myopia may be accompanied by symptoms such as protruding eyeballs, a deeper anterior chamber, a large pupil with a slow response, and a narrow palpebral fissure. It also increases the risk of serious eye diseases such as macular degeneration and retinal detachment, further severely damaging vision (Haarman A. et al., Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci, 2020, 61(4):49).

[0005] Currently, drug-based prevention and control is an effective means of controlling myopia (JHHuang et al., American Academy of Ophthalmology, 2016, 123(4):697-708). A 2020 study by Walline JJ et al. indicated that atropine is an effective drug for preventing and / or inhibiting the progression of myopia (Walline JJ et al., Cochrane Database Syst Rev, 2020, 1:D4916). However, a 2021 study by Joachimsen L. et al. found that when using atropine, adverse reactions such as pupillary dilation and changes in accommodation occurred after using 0.01%, 0.025%, and 0.05% atropine (Joachimsen L. et al., Int Ophthalmol, 2021, 41(6):2001-2008).

[0006] In conclusion, there is an urgent need for myopia prevention and control, but existing drugs present a trade-off between effectiveness and safety. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to develop a new treatment strategy to provide a safer and more effective solution for the prevention and / or treatment of myopia.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides an AI-designed benzodiazepine derivative having the structure of Formula I:

[0009] Wherein, R1 is any one of H, deuterium, halogen, or C1-C3 alkoxy group;

[0010] R2 and R3 are each independently one of H, deuterium, and C1-C5 alkyl groups;

[0015] Optionally, one of the methylene groups of R2 and L1 can form a C4-C7 heterocyclic structure together with the N group to which it is attached.

[0016] Optionally, the benzodiazepine derivative has the structure of formula II:

[0017] Wherein, R3 is any one of H, deuterium, and C1-C5 alkyl groups;

[0018] R4 is a polycyclic cycloalkyl group;

[0019] L2 is a single bond or -(CH2) n - where n is 1 or 2.

[0022] Any one of them.

[0023] The present invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising: the above-mentioned AI-designed benzodiazepine derivative as an active ingredient.

[0024] Optionally, the pharmaceutical composition further comprises: pharmaceutical excipients.

[0025] The present invention also provides the use of AI-designed benzodiazepine derivatives for the preparation of drugs for preventing myopia and / or inhibiting the progression of myopia.

[0026] Optionally, the myopia includes at least one of the following: axial myopia, refractive myopia, pseudomyopia, pathological myopia, simple myopia, extremely high myopia, severe myopia, high myopia, moderate myopia, low myopia, myopia combined with glaucoma, myopia with risk of developing glaucoma, or myopia accompanied by high intraocular pressure.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0028] Experiments have demonstrated that the AI-designed benzodiazepine derivative provided in this invention exhibits high selectivity for M2 cells, significantly inhibiting Human M2 cells while showing little inhibition of Human M3 cells. The IC50 ratio of M3 / M2 is [missing information]. 50The ratio is significantly higher than that of AFDX-116, an existing clinical drug for myopia. Therefore, the benzodiazepine derivative of the present invention holds promise for preventing the onset of myopia and / or inhibiting its further deterioration without causing mydriatic side effects. Attached Figure Description

[0029] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram showing the effect of compound 2 of the present invention on the refractive power of a myopic guinea pig model. Detailed Implementation

[0030] The technical solution of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] M2 receptors are mainly distributed in the ciliary muscle and retina of the eye and are related to regulating the eye's focusing and refractive state. Barathi et al. (Barathi V.A. et al. Dis. Model. Mech. 2013, 6(5): 1146-1158) knocked out the muscarinic M2 receptor gene in mice. After 4-8 weeks of negative lens induction, the control group mice showed significant increases in axial length, lens depth, and vitreous cavity depth, exhibiting myopia symptoms; while the M2 gene knockout mice did not show myopia symptoms. In M2 receptor gene knockout mice, scleral collagen type I increased and type V decreased, i.e., scleral fibrosis increased, thereby inhibiting axial elongation of the eye. It can be seen that myopia can be treated or prevented by inhibiting the activity of M2 receptors. The literature also disclosed two examples of selective M2 receptor inhibitors used to inhibit the development of myopia, including AFDX-116.

[0032] M3 receptors, or muscarinic type 3 receptors, are mainly distributed on the pupillary sphincter muscle of the eye. M3 receptors are associated with the contraction of the pupillary sphincter muscle, affecting pupil size. When these receptors are activated, they cause the pupillary sphincter muscle to contract, thus constricting the pupil—a process called mydriasis. Conversely, when the activity of M3 receptors is reduced or inhibited, the contraction of the pupillary sphincter muscle weakens, causing the pupil to dilate—a process called mydriasis.

[0033] Therefore, in treating or preventing myopia, this invention aims to minimize mydriasis by maximizing the selectivity of the drug for the M2 receptor. Ideally, the drug should primarily act on the M2 receptor while having minimal impact on other muscarinic receptors (such as the M3 receptor), i.e., the IC50 ratio of M3 / M2 should be minimized. 50 The higher the ratio, the better.

[0034] In the latest developments in AI technology, artificial intelligence can be used for the discovery, screening, and optimization of small molecule drugs. By integrating AI computing tools, databases (such as the CAS compound library), and receptor-ligand complex interaction information into efficient molecular / atomic training sets and AI digital workflows, and combining them with BT technologies (bioinformatics, in vitro target cell bioactivity detection, etc.), new therapeutic drugs can be invented.

[0035] As is well known, in the process of drug development, traditional small molecule compounds (drugs) require a lot of time to go from seed compounds to lead compounds and then to candidate compounds (usually taking 5-6 years or even longer). However, drug development driven by artificial intelligence (AIDrug Discovery & Design, AIDD) can perform data cross-comparison, molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulation, etc. in a shorter time (usually only 3-5 months), thereby accelerating the screening or de novo design of new compounds. Its core value lies in pioneering innovation and efficiency improvement.

[0036] Based on relatively well-defined mechanisms (such as the Schrödinger equation and Gibbs free energy change), AI can search multiple, broader, and more comprehensive databases of different compounds and proteomics, quickly completing searches and cross-matches, saving significant resources previously used for wet experiments. Wet experimental data can then be fed back into the AI ​​for iterative optimization of compound structures.

[0037] This invention is based on a computational structural biology technology platform built independently using an AI (dry experiment) + BT (wet experiment) interactive fusion R&D model. It combines various cutting-edge algorithms in medicinal chemistry and quantum chemistry with deep learning, natural language processing, and pre-trained models of various neural network frameworks to generate novel molecular structures with expected functional properties. Then, based on the target-drug related binding interface, molecular modeling, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation are performed to obtain the optimal receptor-ligand binding free energy function, binding constant, and dissociation constant. This optimizes the screening of candidate compounds with the best in vitro cell activity and the most suitable overall evaluation. Meanwhile, through in-depth analysis of disease / drug correlation networks, AI servers, and workstations, drug deep learning and multi-threaded collaborative simulation can be performed simultaneously and independently. Alternatively, an AI computing power cluster can be formed to process large data of libraries and candidate compounds, deeply mining libraries, structure-pharmacodynamic group relationships (QSAR), and novel drug targets, saving innovative drug development costs and shortening R&D time. This forms a new R&D path of "dry and wet combination, seamless connection" for new drug development, which is expected to become a scientific paradigm for future innovative drug development, bringing a new breakthrough in thinking and experimental innovation to the past drug development process that was extremely dependent on wet experiments, which was time-consuming, laborious, and cumbersome.

[0038] Through multiple rounds of iterative dry and wet closed-loop experiments, this invention ultimately yielded a series of benzodiazepine derivatives with the structure of Formula I:

[0039] Wherein, R1 is any one of H, deuterium, halogen, or C1-C3 alkoxy group; R2 and R3 are each independently any one of H, deuterium, or C1-C5 alkyl group; R4 is a polycyclic cycloalkyl group or a polycyclic heterocyclic group; L1 is -(CH2). m - where m is an integer from 1 to 3; L2 is a single bond or -(CH2). n - where n is 1 or 2.

[0040] Optionally, L2 is a single bond, and R3 and R4 can form a C4-C bond together with the N bonded to them. 20 The polycyclic heterocyclic structure.

[0041] Optionally, one of the methylene groups of R2 and L1 can form a C4-C7 heterocyclic structure together with the N group to which it is attached.

[0042] Optionally, the benzodiazepine derivative has the structure of formula II:

[0043] Wherein, R3 is any one of H, deuterium, or C1-C5 alkyl groups; R4 is a polycyclic alkyl group; and L2 is a single bond or -(CH2). n - where n is 1 or 2.

[0044] The present invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising: the above-mentioned AI-designed benzodiazepine derivative as an active ingredient, and pharmaceutical excipients.

[0045] The present invention also provides the use of AI-designed benzodiazepine derivatives, which can be used to prepare drugs for preventing myopia and / or inhibiting the progression of myopia.

[0423] Example 17: In vivo efficacy evaluation

[0424] Objective: To evaluate the inhibitory effect of compound 2 on the development of myopia (refractive error) using a guinea pig myopia model. Young guinea pigs are born with hyperopia, which gradually progresses to emmetropia during eye development. Form deprivation accelerates this process. This experiment investigates the effect of compound 2 on delaying the emmetropization process in model young guinea pigs.

[0425] Sample preparation: 0.5 wt% of Compound 2 eye drops were prepared by compound 2 and 10 wt% of sulfobutyl ether-belta-cyclodextrin aqueous solution.

[0426] Grouping: Guinea pigs were divided into three groups based on the refractive value of their right eyes: a negative control group, a model control group, and two compound groups. In the negative control group, no intervention was performed on the eyes of the guinea pigs, and their right eyes developed normally.

[0427] Modeling: Except for the negative control group, all other animals underwent modeling. A myopia model was created using the right eyelid suture technique. The procedure was as follows: After removing hair from the right eye of all animals, a U-shaped suture was used to deprive them of visual perception and accelerate the process of emmetropization. Animals were fed for 28 days after the initial suture.

[0428] Administration: Starting from the day of suturing and modeling, the right eye of each group of animals was treated with eye drops according to the set method (the administration samples are shown in Table 4), 20 μL / eye, once a day, for 28 consecutive days.

[0429] Table 4: Summary of Dosage and Administration Design for Each Group

[0430] Testing: Refractive error was measured using an infrared refractometer (ST-PR.01, Striatech) on days 15 and 29 after modeling.

[0431] The experimental results are shown in Figure 1. Young guinea pigs are born with hyperopia (positive refractive value), which gradually progresses towards emmetropia during eye development, i.e., the refractive value decreases from positive to zero (as shown in the negative control group). The modeling (form deprivation) of this invention accelerates the emmetropia process, eventually resulting in a negative refractive value (myopia). As shown in Figure 1, the slope of emmetropia development in the model control group is significantly greater than that in the negative control group, proving the effectiveness of the modeling, i.e., the modeling accelerates emmetropia. The compound 2 group showed an increase in positive refractive value on day 15, indicating a significant therapeutic effect. On day 15 of administration, the compound 2 group showed a better degree of slowing down the progression of refractive decline than the negative control group. On day 29 of administration, the compound 2 group showed a similar degree of slowing down the progression of refractive decline as the negative control group. It is evident that the compound 2 group accelerated the emmetropia process through modeling, but slowed it down after medication. After 29 days of administration, the degree of emmetropia remained comparable to that of natural eye development (negative group), proving that compound 2 can effectively inhibit the development of myopia.

[0432] In summary, the benzodiazepine derivatives provided by this invention, when used as active components in pharmaceutical compositions, can significantly improve selectivity for M2 receptors, significantly reduce inhibitory effects on M3 receptors, and increase the IC50 of M3 / M2. 50 The ratio increases significantly, exhibiting specific pharmacological properties that can effectively prevent or inhibit the development of myopia without affecting pupil size, and also help improve the targeted nature of treatment and patient comfort.
