Abstract
Description
Process for preparing KRAS G12D intermediate TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure belongs to the field of medicine, and particularly relates to a method for preparing KRAS G12D intermediate. BACKGROUND
[0002] RAS is one of the oncogenes with the highest mutation rate in tumors, and about 30% of human malignancies are related to mutations in the RAS gene. The RAS family includes KRAS, NRAS and HRAS, among which KRAS mutations are the most common, accounting for about 85%. KRAS mutations are common in solid tumors, and high-frequency mutations exist in the three most deadly cancers in humans: lung cancer (17%), colorectal cancer (33%) and pancreatic cancer (61%). Among the genetic mutations of KRAS, 97% are mutations in the 12th or 13th amino acid residues, and G12D is an important mutation. Data analysis of European and American populations shows that G12D mutations account for 36%, 12% and 4% of patients with pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer and non-small cell lung cancer, respectively.
[0003] After KRAS is activated, it regulates cell proliferation, survival, migration and metabolism and other functions through a large number of downstream signaling pathways represented by RAF-MEK-ERK, PI3K-AKT-mTOR and TIAM1-RAc. After KRAS gene mutation, the protein is continuously in an activated state, leading to continuous activation of downstream signaling pathways and promoting tumor occurrence.
[0004] Due to the lack of traditional small molecule binding sites on the surface of KRAS protein and the extremely high affinity with guanylate, it is extremely difficult to be inhibited, and it has been considered as an undruggable drug target for a long time. However, due to the importance and universality of KRAS abnormal activation in cancer progression, KRAS has always been and still is a target of great concern for drug development. At present, in addition to KRAS G12C inhibitors, there are still no effective KRAS inhibitors for other mutations, so that most patients with KRAS mutations still have no drugs to treat. G12D, as a widely expressed mutant in various tumors, has important clinical significance for developing inhibitors against it.
[0005] The compound shown in formula IV-1 is an important intermediate for synthesizing KRAS G12D molecules. Patent applications WO2023274324A, CN 115557974A, WO2022268051A and WO2022188729A disclose synthesis methods of the compound shown in formula IV-1, the reaction route is relatively complex, the overall yield is relatively low, and the cost is also relatively high.
[0006] In view of the considerations of simplifying the route, improving the yield, and reducing the cost, the present disclosure provides a new method for preparing a KRAS G12D intermediate. SUMMARY
