AI Technical Summary
Existing cyclic carbonate nucleoside compounds are viscous gels at room temperature, poorly soluble in water, have poor chemical stability and poor drug-like properties, and are difficult to effectively treat diseases caused by novel coronavirus, feline infectious peritonitis virus, respiratory syncytial virus, and porcine epidemic diarrhea virus.
By forming salts with various acids, especially hydrobromide, cyclic carbonate nucleoside compound salts with crystal form A or crystal form B are prepared, thereby improving their physical and chemical stability, water solubility and solid properties, reducing hygroscopicity, and enhancing oral bioavailability.
The prepared cyclic carbonate nucleoside compound salts exhibit good physical and chemical stability, significantly improved water solubility, reduced hygroscopicity, and enhanced oral bioavailability, making them suitable for treating diseases caused by novel coronavirus, feline infectious peritonitis virus, respiratory syncytial virus, and porcine epidemic diarrhea virus.

Abstract
Description
Preparation method of salt of cyclic carbonate nucleoside compound and crystal form thereof
[0001] Cross-reference to related applications
[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 2024110689279 entitled "Preparation method of salt of cyclic carbonate nucleoside compound and crystal form thereof" filed on August 6, 2024, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD
[0003] The present application relates to the technical field of medicine, in particular to a salt of cyclic carbonate nucleoside compound, a crystal thereof and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0004] The novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), a new coronavirus with high similarity to the SARS-CoV genetic sequence in 2003, has rapidly spread globally since its discovery. This type of virus not only has high transmissibility and variability, but also is difficult to prevent through vaccination due to its high proliferation capacity. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) currently has no effective chemical drugs for treatment, and is the primary factor for viral respiratory tract infection in infants and young children to be hospitalized, seriously endangering children's health. In this context, antiviral drugs, especially nucleoside analogs targeting viral genetic material (DNA or RNA), have become a key response strategy.
[0005] Some coronaviruses can also infect various mammals, including cats, pigs, dogs, cows, horses, and camels. For example, it is estimated that 40-80% of cats worldwide carry feline coronavirus (FCoV), which is divided into two subtypes, and in particular, the feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) type caused by feline coronavirus mutation has a very high mortality rate. Similarly, porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) also belongs to the coronavirus family, and causes a high incidence and mortality rate in sows. In addition, feline calicivirus (FCV) is a highly variable, single-stranded RNA virus that mainly causes acute upper respiratory tract infection in cats, has a high incidence rate, and is currently believed to be a major cause of cat stomatitis.
[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop nucleoside analogs with stable physical properties and excellent pharmacokinetic characteristics to treat various infectious diseases caused by these viruses.

[0154] Test Example 10: Dose exploration test of Compound II hydrobromide (crystal form A) salt by repeated gavage administration to SD rats for 30 days
[0155] Methods: A total of 64 SD rats (32 / sex) were used in the test, and were randomly divided into 7 groups according to body weight, the first 4 groups were used for toxicological study (5 / sex / group), and the 5th to 7th groups (4 / sex / group) were used for toxicokinetic study. The animals in the first group were given 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose sodium aqueous solution as a solvent control group, and the second and fifth groups, the third and sixth groups, and the fourth and seventh groups were given 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose sodium aqueous solution and Compound II hydrobromide (crystal form A) salt dissolved in the solvent (30, 100 and 300 mg / kg, respectively) as a solvent. The animals were administered by gavage, the administration volume was 10 mL / kg, and the administration was once a day for 30 consecutive days. The animals in groups 1-4 were dissected the day after the last drug (D31). The animals in the toxicokinetic study group were euthanized the day after the last drug (D31) without dissection.
[0156] During the test, the animals were subjected to clinical observation, body weight, food intake, body temperature, ophthalmic examination, clinical pathology, gross anatomy, organ weight and histopathology. At the same time, the content of Compound II hydrobromide (crystal form A) salt and its metabolite GS441524 in the samples of the toxicokinetic study animals on D1 and D30 were determined and toxicokinetic analysis was performed.
[0157] Results: During the test period, no death or moribundity was observed in all animals. No abnormal changes related to the test product were observed in the clinical observation of 30 mg / kg animals. No abnormal changes related to the test product were observed in the ophthalmic examination, urine analysis and gross autopsy of 100 mg / kg and 300 mg / kg animals. The main changes included: excessive salivation was observed in animals of 100 mg / kg dose group; excessive salivation, reduced body weight and food intake, and slightly elevated hemoglobin (HGB) were observed in animals of 300 mg / kg dose group.
[0158] In summary, under the conditions of this test, the hydrobromic acid (crystal form A) salt of compound II was repeatedly administered by gavage to SD rats at doses of 30, 100 and 300 mg / kg, once a day for 30 consecutive days. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was 300 mg / kg. At this dose, the average peak concentration (C max ) and area under the curve AUC last of GS441524 in D30 male animals were 7398.30 ng / mL and 41061.39 h·ng / mL, respectively, and the average peak concentration (C max ) and area under the curve AUC last of GS441524 in female animals were 9549.49 ng / mL and 36641.16 h·ng / mL, respectively.
