Description

N-substituted piperidone compounds

[0001] The present invention relates to N-substituted piperidone compounds useful as pharmaceuticals. More specifically, the present invention relates to N-substituted piperidone compounds or pharmacoagulably acceptable salts thereof that have antagonist activity against thyroid-stimulating hormone receptors (TSHR) and are useful as therapeutic agents for thyroid-related diseases.

[0002] The thyroid hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) play important roles in development, growth, and metabolism, and their synthesis and secretion are strictly regulated by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) secreted from the pituitary gland.

[0003] In hyperthyroidism, these thyroid hormones are secreted in excess for some reason, and the effects of these hormones cause a variety of undesirable physical and mental effects, such as goiter, tachycardia, hypertension, fatigue, weight loss, palpitations, sleep disturbances, and menstrual irregularities.

[0004] There are various causes of hyperthyroidism, but Graves' disease is the most common. In Graves' disease, an autoimmune mechanism causes the body to mistakenly recognize its own thyroid gland as a foreign substance, producing autoantibodies against TSHR present on thyroid follicular cells, known as TSHR antibodies (TRAb). It is believed that these TRAb act as agonists against TSHR, excessively stimulating it, leading to the over-secretion of thyroid hormones and the development of hyperthyroidism.

[0005] Another disease associated with Graves' disease is thyroid eye disease. Thyroid eye disease is an autoimmune inflammatory disease that presents with a variety of ocular symptoms, and is thought to be mainly caused by the agonist effect of TRAb on TSHR in orbital tissue. It often develops at roughly the same time as hyperthyroidism, but it can also occur without thyroid dysfunction.

[0006] Currently, drug therapy for Graves' disease involves antithyroid drugs that inhibit the biosynthesis of thyroid hormones, such as thiamazole and propylthiouracil. However, these drugs have drawbacks, including a low remission rate, a long treatment period to achieve remission, and a high frequency of side effects. Therefore, there is a need for new drugs for Graves' disease with novel mechanisms of action.

[0007] Blocking TSHR, or inhibiting TSHR-induced signaling, inhibits the production, secretion, and proliferation of thyroid hormones. Therefore, TSHR antagonists are thought to have therapeutic effects against Graves' disease and thyroid eye disease caused by the agonist effect of TRAb on TSHR (Patent Documents 1 and 2). NCGC00242364 is a known TSHR antagonist, and it has been shown to reduce blood T4 levels in mice administered with TSH-releasing hormone (TRH) and mice administered with the thyroid-stimulating antibody M22 (Non-Patent Document 1).

[0008] Compounds having TSHR antagonist activity are described in Patent Documents 1 to 3 and Non-Patent Document 1. However, the N-substituted piperidone compound of the present invention is not described in any of Patent Documents 1 to 3 or Non-Patent Document 1.

[0149] Test Example 1: Measurement of antagonist activity using TSH-induced cAMP production as an indicator in human TSHR-stable expressing CHO cells.

[0150] The human TSHR gene sequence (reference number NM_000369.2) was inserted into the multicloning site of pcDNA3.1(+). The constructed plasmid vector was introduced into CHO cells using lipofection, and human TSHR stable expression CHO cells were established. The obtained cells were placed in 96-well poly-D-lysine coated plates in a 5 x 10⁶ arrangement. 4Cells were seeded at 1 cell / well and cultured for 1 day at 37°C under 5% CO2 conditions in F12 medium containing 10% FBS, 400 μg / mL G418, 50 U / mL penicillin, and 50 μg / mL streptomycin. After removing the medium, the cells were washed twice with 100 μL of assay buffer per well (Hanks' Balanced Salt Solution containing 20 mM HEPES and 1 mM IBMX). 30 μL of assay buffer containing the test compound was added to each well and incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes. Then, assay buffer containing 30 μL of human TSH (R&D Systems, Inc., final concentration 50 ng / mL) was added and incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. The supernatant was removed, and cell lysates were prepared by adding Lysis and Detection Buffer 2 (Cisbio) and incubating at room temperature for 1 hour. Following the instructions for use of the cAMP Gs HiRange kit (Cisbio), cell lysates were reacted with d2-labeled cAMP and anti-cAMP Europium Cryptate labeled antibody (Cisbio) in a 384-well white microplate. The fluorescence intensity ratio (measurement wavelength 665 nm / 620 nm) was then measured using a multiplate reader (PHERAstarFSX, BMG LABTECH Japan). The fluorescence intensity ratio of each sample was converted to cAMP content using a standard curve. The cAMP generation rate was calculated by converting the cAMP content to a percentage of the control value. The cAMP generation rate was plotted against the test compound concentration using Prism (Graph Pad Software Inc.), and IC50 was calculated. 50 The values ​​were calculated for each test compound's IC (Impulse Control Value). 50 This is shown in the table above. In the table, IC 50 <0.5 μM: A, 0.5 μM ≤ IC 50 : Denoted as B. IC of those that showed activity. 50 If a value could not be calculated, it was indicated as C.

[0151] As shown in the table above, the compounds of the present invention have been found to possess human TSHR antagonist activity.

[0152] The compounds of the present invention or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts have TSHR antagonist activity and are therefore useful as therapeutic agents for thyroid-related diseases.
