Abstract
Description
4-Amino-substituted pyridazinone compounds, their preparation methods and applications Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pharmacology, specifically relating to a class of compounds with 4-amino-6-phenylpyridazine-3(2H)-one as the parent nucleus, their preparation methods, pharmaceutical compositions, and their applications in the preparation of antitumor drugs, especially for the treatment of melanoma. Background Technology
[0002] Melanoma is a malignant tumor that originates from melanocytes. It manifests as asymmetrical black or gray patches, nodules, or masses in the affected area. More than 280,000 new cases are diagnosed worldwide each year, and more than 60,000 people die from it (CA CANCER J CLIN 2018; 68:39).
[0003] Melanoma is a highly malignant tumor that primarily occurs in the skin, but can also occur in various locations or tissues such as mucous membranes (including visceral mucosa), the uvea of the eye, and the pia mater. Early-stage malignant melanoma of the skin can metastasize via the lymphatic system and bloodstream, leading to an extremely poor prognosis; the five-year overall survival rate is less than 15% (Exon Publications (2017):161-174).
[0004] Early-stage melanoma is mainly treated with surgery, while for tumors that have metastasized deeply or spread to the lymph nodes, chemotherapy and radiotherapy are the main treatments. As a result, the demand for drugs to treat melanoma is constantly expanding, and new therapeutic drugs need to be developed. Summary of the Invention

[0059] This invention introduces a primary amino group at the 4-position of the pyridazinone core, which can effectively improve the physicochemical properties of the molecule, increase its water solubility, improve its metabolic properties, and reduce its potential toxicity. At the same time, the introduction of a polar amino fragment can increase potential hydrogen bonding and other interactions, thereby increasing the molecule's antitumor activity.
[0060] In vitro cell experiments showed that this series of compounds can effectively inhibit tumor cell growth, with an IC50 inhibitory activity of 100%. 50 All compounds have a molecular weight of less than 100 nM, with some compounds less than 10 nM, exhibiting potent antitumor activity. Furthermore, they showed significant inhibitory activity against multiple different tumor cell lines, indicating broad antitumor potential. The addition of a PDE3 inhibitor effectively reversed the activity of this series of compounds, resulting in the loss of their antitumor activity, suggesting a PDE3-related molecular gel mechanism.
[0061] Animal metabolism studies have shown that this series of compounds have good oral bioavailability in rats, achieving sufficient in vivo drug efficacy exposure. Furthermore, their plasma clearance rate is significantly higher than that of compound YHHU-258, which has no amino substitution at the 4-position, and can be cleared within 24 hours without any drug accumulation trend.
[0062] The prodrug compound in this invention can be effectively hydrolyzed in animals to release active molecules, achieving sufficient drug efficacy exposure and further producing biological effects.

[0087] Molecular glues (MG) are a class of compounds or molecules that play a crucial role in binding and stabilizing protein-protein interactions in biological systems. These molecules act as "glue" by enhancing the affinity between proteins, ultimately influencing various cellular processes. MG compounds have attracted widespread attention in drug discovery, chemical biology, and basic research due to their potential to regulate protein interactions, thereby affecting various cellular pathways. They have opened up medical pathways previously considered "drug-free." Molecular glues (MG drugs) differ from traditional drugs in their mechanism of action, characterized by a drug targeting two (or more) targets. That is, the drug molecule simultaneously or sequentially binds to two different proteins, forming a ternary complex that induces protein-protein interaction (PPI), one of which is the target protein (POI), resulting in structural degradation and loss of function. The pharmacological effect exhibited by this type of protein interaction is induced by the molecular glue, but the molecules themselves do not participate in the degradation or inhibition process; their role is to induce the event. Currently, there is no rational or systematic method for discovering molecular glues.

[0159] Furthermore, the inhibitory activity of compound I-25 against multiple different tumor cell lines (human lung adenocarcinoma NCI-H2122, human glioma H4, human glioblastoma DBTRG-05MG, human non-small cell lung cancer NCI-H1563, human melanoma CHL-1, and human non-small cell lung cancer NCI-H647) was further tested. The results are shown in Figure 1. The results indicate that the compound exhibits significant in vitro proliferation inhibitory activity against multiple tumor cell lines, including human lung cancer cell lines and glioma cell lines, demonstrating its broad anti-tumor potential.
[0160] Example 49: Pharmacological experimental mechanism verification that PDE3 enzyme activity inhibitors can reverse the drug efficacy of compounds.
[0161] Experimental protocol: Well-grown CHL-1 cells were seeded in 96-well plates at a density of 1800 cells / well and cultured overnight at 37°C with 5% CO2. The test drug was added to the 96-well plates at a concentration of 1 μM. The plates were then cultured at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 72 h, and the inhibitory rate on cell proliferation was measured. The effect of the 1 μM test compound was reversed in the 96-well plates using 1 μM Trequinsin or 10 μM Cilostamide, and the reversal efficiency was determined using the SRB method.
[0162] Reagents and consumables: DMEM medium (Shanghai Peiyuan Biotechnology, #L110KJ), fetal bovine serum (Gibco, #10902096), CHL-1 cells (ATCC, #CRL3619), 96-well microplates (Thermo Fisher, #167425), SRB (Sigma-Aldrich, #S9012), DMSO (Sigma-Aldrich, #D4540), Trequinsin (MCE, #HY-18740A), Cilostamide (Selleck, #S5806).
[0163] Detection:
[0164] The results are shown in Figure 2. The results indicate that the addition of the PDE3 inhibitors 1 μM Trequinsin or 10 μM Cilostamide effectively reversed the drug's efficacy, and it lost its inhibitory activity on tumor cell proliferation. This suggests that the series of compounds exert their biological effects by inducing the formation of a molecular glue effect of the complex between PDE3 and SLFN12.
[0165] Example 50: Pharmacokinetic Study of the Compound in Rats
[0166] Experimental protocol:
[0167] Compound I-1: Six male SD rats (weighing 200-220g) were fasted for 12 hours before administration and continued to fast for 2 hours after administration. The room temperature was controlled at 18-29℃, the humidity at 30%-70%, and the rats were exposed to light for 12 hours and protected from light for 12 hours. The oral dose of Compound I-1 was 20mg / kg in 0.5% CMC-Na suspension; the intravenous dose was 2.5mg / kg, with a solvent volume ratio of DMSO / EtOH / PEG300 / 0.9% NaCl = 5 / 5 / 40 / 50. Blood samples were collected at different time points (0.05h, 0.25h, 0.75h, 2.00h, 4.00h, 8.00h, and 24.0h) to detect the drug concentration in the blood samples and calculate the corresponding pharmacokinetic parameters.
[0168] Compound YHHU-258:
[0169] Four healthy male SD rats, weighing 200–250 g, were administered the drug via gavage. The dosage was 20 mg / kg, and the administration volume was 10 ml / kg. The rats were fasted for 12 hours prior to administration but had free access to water. At 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 5.0, 7.0, 9.0, and 24 hours post-administration, 0.3 ml of venous blood was collected from the retroocular venous plexus of the rats, placed in heparinized tubes, centrifuged at 3500 rpm for 10 min, and the plasma was separated and stored at 20°C for analysis.
[0170] Four healthy male SD rats, weighing 200–250 g, were administered the drug intravenously. The dosage was 20 mg / kg, and the administration volume was 10 ml / kg. The rats were fasted for 12 hours prior to administration but had free access to water. At 5 min, 15 min, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, 6.0, 9.0, and 24 h post-administration, 0.3 ml of venous blood was collected from the retroocular venous plexus of the rats. The blood samples were placed in heparinized tubes, centrifuged at 3500 rpm for 10 min, and the plasma was separated and stored at 20 °C for analysis.
[0171] Table 2. Pharmacokinetics of Compound I-1 and YHHU-258 in rats
[0172] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the pharmacokinetic results indicate that compound I-1 has good oral bioavailability in rats, at 82.7%, achieving sufficient in vivo drug efficacy exposure. Furthermore, its plasma clearance rate (CL) is significantly higher than that of compound YHHU-258, which has no amino substitution at position 4, and it can be cleared within 24 hours without any drug accumulation trend.
[0173] Example 51: Pharmacokinetic Study of Prodrug Compounds I-45 to I-47 in Rats
[0174] Six male SD rats (weighing 200-220g) were fasted for 12 hours before drug administration and continued to be fasted for 2 hours after administration. The room temperature was controlled at 18-29℃, and the humidity at 30%-70%. They were exposed to light for 12 hours and then protected from light for 12 hours. Prodrug compounds I-45-I-47 and active drugs I-25 and I-31 were orally administered. Blood samples were collected at different time points (0.05h, 0.25h, 0.75h, 2.00h, 4.00h, 8.00h, and 24.0h) to detect the drug concentrations of prodrug and active molecules in the blood samples, and the corresponding pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated. The results are shown in the table below.
[0175] Table 3. Pharmacokinetics of compounds I-45 and I-25 in rats
[0176] Table 4. Pharmacokinetics of compounds I-46 and I-31 in rats
[0177] Table 5. Pharmacokinetics of compounds I-47 and I-31 in rats
[0178] The pharmacokinetic results are shown in the table above. After oral administration, prodrug molecules I-45 to I-47 can be effectively hydrolyzed in rats to release active molecules I-25 or I-31. The drug exposure is significantly better than that of active molecules I-25 or I-31 alone, achieving sufficient drug efficacy exposure and thus further exerting biological effects.
