Abstract
Description
An oral pharmaceutical composition of a PDE4B inhibitor compound and its preparation method Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of chemical medicines, and in particular to an oral pharmaceutical composition of a PDE4B inhibitor compound and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive, fibrotic interstitial lung disease with lesions localized to the lungs. It predominates in middle-aged and elderly individuals. Pulmonary histology and / or chest high-resolution CT (HRCT) findings are characteristically of usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP). The etiology remains unclear. The disease course can be acute, subacute, or chronic, and is mostly sporadic. Statistics show an annual prevalence of approximately 2 to 29 cases per 100,000 people in the general population, with a steadily increasing trend, estimated at 11% per year. Approximately 100,000 people in the United States and 110,000 in the European Union have IPF, with 35,000 new cases reported annually in the EU. The annual prevalence of IPF in Japan is approximately 2.23 to 10 cases per 100,000 people, but the actual number is far higher. my country, a country with a rapidly aging population, also sees an increasing number of IPF cases, conservatively estimated to be at least 500,000. As a chronic interstitial lung disease, IPF has an insidious onset and gradually worsens, but can also present with acute exacerbations. The average survival after IPF diagnosis is only 2.8 years, and the mortality rate is higher than that of most cancers. IPF has been called a "tumor-like disease."
[0003] Current treatment options are limited. Glucocorticoids or combined cytotoxic drugs are customarily used for treatment, and the dosage and course of treatment depend on the patient's specific condition. The currently recommended treatment regimen is glucocorticoids combined with cyclophosphamide or azathioprine. Other therapeutic drugs include N-acetylcysteine, gamma-interferon and pirfenidone (TNF-α inhibitor), colchicine, penicillamine, etc. The clinical efficacy of these drugs needs further demonstration. The present technical solution provides an oral pharmaceutical composition of a phosphodiesterase (PDEs) inhibitor compound and a preparation method thereof, which is only used to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and other related diseases.
[0004] Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are a family of enzymes that hydrolyze cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), playing a crucial role in regulating cAMP and cGMP levels. PDEs are divided into three categories: the first category specifically hydrolyzes cAMP, including PDE4, PDE7, and PDE8; the second category specifically hydrolyzes cGMP, including PDE5, PDE6, and PDE9; and the third category, which can hydrolyze both cAMP and cGMP, includes PDE1, PDE2, PDE3, PDE10, and PDE11.
[0005] PDE4 is widely expressed in various tissues. PDE4 enzymes are generally divided into four subtypes (PDE4A, PDE4B, PDE4C, and PDE4D). Their functions include regulating brain function, regulating monocyte and macrophage function, and regulating vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. Although PDE4 is expressed in most cells, immune cells primarily rely on PDE4 to catalyze the hydrolysis of cAMP. Therefore, PDE4 inhibitors may be used to treat a variety of inflammatory diseases, including psoriasis, neuroinflammation, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, ankylosing spondylitis (AS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), atopic dermatitis, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
[0006] The present invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical preparations, and more particularly to an oral pharmaceutical composition of a small molecule phosphodiesterase (PDEs) inhibitor compound (I). The present invention also relates to a method for preparing the pharmaceutical composition, and the use of the pharmaceutical composition in a medicament for treating diseases or conditions associated with phosphodiesterase (PDEs) receptors. The formulation technology employs specific solubilization technology, compositions, and preparation methods to obtain a formulation with high bioavailability, good content uniformity, good stability, and industrial production capabilities, intended to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and other related diseases, enriching the current treatment options in this disease field.

Blood was collected from both the intravenous and oral gavage groups at 0, 5, 15, 30 minutes, and 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours. All samples were stored at -80°C prior to analysis and quantitative analysis was performed using LC-MS / MS.
[0147] Pharmacokinetic parameters of test compounds in rat plasma -:not applicable.
[0148] Conclusion: The compound of formula (I) of the present invention exhibits excellent pharmacokinetic properties in the mouse PK test.
