The present invention relates to a compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof useful as a therapeutic or prophylactic agent for a disease involving the immune system, by suppressing a function of immune cells by suppressing proliferation of activated T cells or by suppressing production of interferon alpha (sometimes abbreviated herein as IFN-α or IFNa) by activated plasmacytoid dendritic cells (sometimes abbreviated herein as pDC), particularly an autoimmune disease such as systemic lupus erythematosus (sometimes abbreviated herein as SLE) and lupus nephritis in SLE patients.
SLE is a systemic autoimmune disease and it is said that there are approximately 1.4 million SLE patients worldwide. Among them, SLE is frequent in Asian and Hispanic peoples, and its prevalence is about 50 per 100,000 people in Japan. The ratio in males to females is one to nine, the overwhelming majority of SLE patients being women. The peak of the onset is at the age of 20's to 30's, early onset being one of characteristics of SLE. Since the matching rate of SLE in identical twins is about 30%, it is believed that environmental factors such as ultraviolet light, viral infection, stress, and sex hormones contribute to a background of some genetic predisposition to cause the onset.
SLE is classified in accordance with the SLICC classification criteria (the systemic lupus international collaborating clinics classification criteria for systemic lupus erythematosus) presented by the American College of Rheumatology in 2012. SLE is diagnosed when both one or more of 11 clinical items and of 6 immunological items, to a total of 4 items, are met. Major clinical symptoms include acute and chronic skin lupus, synovitis (joint swelling or joint pain and stiffness), neurological symptoms, and nephropathy. The main immunological items include elevated autoantibodies such as anti-nuclear antibodies, anti-dsDNA antibodies, and anti-Sm antibodies, and reduced complements in the blood.
The onset mechanism of SLE is elicited by the deposition of immunoconjugates composed of autoantibodies produced in the blood and autoantigens on vessel walls. It is known that the production of autoantibodies requires B cell activation and T cell function to assist it and that interferon alpha (sometimes abbreviated herein as IFN-α or IFNa) produced from plasmacytoid dendritic cells (sometimes abbreviated herein as pDC) also plays an important role in SLE pathology, and it is believed that SLE develops through a complex network of various immune cells.
Important organ disorders in SLE patients are disorders of kidney, central nerve, and lung, and they are likely to cause poor life and function prognosis. Among them, nephropathy occurs in 50% or more of SLE patients, with high probability to lead to renal failure and death, and these are organ disorders having very high unmet medical needs. Patients with nephropathy are diagnosed with lupus nephritis according to tissue classification by the International Society of Nephrology. Lupus nephritis is defined when the classification criteria for SLE are met, and persistent urinary protein is >0.5 g/day or 3+ or more, and/or cell cylinders are present. Lupus nephritis is classified into type I to type VI based on pathological diagnosis. In the active lupus nephritis of types III, IV, and V, it is believed that strong treatment with a combination of a large quantity of steroids and immunosuppressive drugs is required and it is important that remission status is achieved early. The first selective drug for introducing a remission of lupus nephritis is mycophenolate mofetil (sometimes abbreviated herein as MMF), which is used in about 70% of patients. For the remaining 20 to 30% of patients, cyclophosphamide pulse therapy is used. MMF is an inhibitor of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase. The main action mechanism of MMF is to act on lymphocyte T and B cells whose purine synthesis depends on this enzyme and to suppress purine synthesis in these target cells. Cyclophosphamides also have a mechanism to inhibit DNA synthesis in lymphocytes. However, since these agents have a mechanism of inhibiting nucleic acid synthesis, the problem of side effects is serious. MMF has serious side effects such as teratogenicity (contraindicated in pregnant women), gastrointestinal disorders, and susceptibility to infection. Cyclophosphamide has side effects such as carcinogenicity, bone marrow disorders, nausea and vomiting, and reproductive dysfunction. Thus, existing medicaments have not always adequately worked for treatment due to dose and use restrictions due to side effects. In addition, even when these drugs are able to work adequately, the response rate is not always high. Thus, drugs with novel mechanisms of action and drugs with higher safety are required in patients and medical settings.
One drug that has been developed for SLE is an anti-IFN-α receptor antibody, and this drug has obtained good results in treatment response rates in Phase II trials (Non Patent Literature 1). IFN-α is also a cytokine that is characteristically enhanced in patients with SLE and is considered to be an important factor as a therapeutic target, and thus an agent that more effectively suppresses IFN-α is required. In a Phase II trial targeting patients with lupus nephritis, voclosporin, a calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) and T cell suppressor, showed a significant remission introduction rate relative to a control group. This demonstrates again the validity of T cells as a treatment target (Non Patent Literature 2).
The present inventors have found compounds that provide both proliferation suppression of activated T cells and production suppression of IFN-α, and considered that this profile is highly ideal as a therapeutic agent for diseases involving the immune system, particularly autoimmune diseases such as SLE and lupus nephritis in SLE patients. The present inventors conducted intensive researches, and as a result, have found that azetidine derivatives having a specific chemical structure exhibit excellent proliferation suppression of activated T cells and production suppression of IFN-α, and are effective for treating diseases involving the immune system, particularly autoimmune diseases such as SLE and lupus nephritis in SLE patients, and have completed the present invention.

A suspension of the compound (150 g) obtained by the method of Step 40 and mercury(II) acetate (233 g) in acetic acid (1 l) was stirred at room temperature for 71 hours, then acetic acid was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was suspended in diethyl ether and water, and sodium hydrogen carbonate (180 g) was slowly added to the suspension under stirring. The aqueous layer was extracted with diethyl ether, and the extract was washed with a 0.5 N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, water and saturated saline, and then dried over sodium sulfate. After the sodium sulfate was filtered off, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. To the residue, ethyl acetate (30 ml) was added, and the mixture was stirred at 70° C. to dissolve the residue. n-Hexane (250 ml) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 hours.

The effect of test substance on 3H-thymidine uptake by activation was evaluated using T cells from mouse spleen. The spleen was removed from euthanized C57BL/6J mice, and finely sliced, then triturated on a cell strainer (40 μm mesh), and cells were collected by centrifugation. The collected splenocytes were treated with Cold lyser containing 0.17 M NH4Cl for 5 minutes to hemolytically remove red blood cells and then washed. The resulting cells were used as the splenocytes. From the splenocytes, CD4+ T cells were isolated using an EasySep Mouse CD4+ T cell isolation kit (STEMCELL Technologies Inc.). The CD4+ T cells were seeded into 96-well round-bottom plates. To the plates, test substance or Vehicle was added, and Dynabeads Mouse T-Activator CD3/CD28 (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.) was added, then the cells were cultured at 37° C. under 5% CO2. After 24 hours of culture, 3H-Thymidine (PerkinElmer Inc.) diluted with medium was added to each well, then the cells were further cultured at 37° C. under 5% CO2 overnight. To measure 3H-Thymidine uptake into the nuclei of the cells, the cells were collected into filter plates UniFilter-96 GF/B (PerkinElmer Inc.) using a FilterMate Universal Harvester (PerkinElmer Inc.). The filter plates were placed in a dryer and left still for 2 hours or more. Then, scintillation cocktail MicroScint-O (PerkinElmer Inc.) was added to the plates, and radioactivity was measured with TopCount NXT (PerkinElmer Inc.). With the radioactivity of the test substance-free group set as 100% and the radioactivity of the non-activation group as 0%, the relative value (proliferation rate, % of vehicle) of the radioactivity of each well to which test substance was added was calculated. The value of % of vehicle was incorporated into analysis software Prism (Version 5.0, GraphPad Software), the “Nonlinear Regression Log (inhibitor) vs Reaction Variable Inclination” was selected, and then sigmoid fitting with restrictions of Bottom=0 and Top=100 was performed to calculate 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50). The results are shown in Table 1. The compounds of the present invention suppressed 3H-thymidine uptake in activated T cells. Since 3H-thymidine uptake is an indicator of cell proliferation, these results indicate that the compounds of the invention suppress proliferation of activated T cells.
Production of IFN-α by TLR9 ligand CpG-ODN D35 stimulation activating pDC was evaluated. Splenocytes were prepared from euthanized C57BL/6J mice in the same way as Test Example 1. Splenocytes were seeded into 96-well round-bottom plates, and test substance was added, and then the plates were preincubated for 30 minutes. Then, CpG-ODN D35 (final concentration 1 μM) was added, and the cells were cultured at 37° C. under 5% CO2. After 24 hours of culture, the culture supernatant was collected, and the IFN-α concentration in the supernatant was measured with an ELISA kit (Mouse IFN-alpha Platinum ELISA Kit, eBioscience). The relative value of the IFN-α concentration of each well when the IFN-α production of the test substance-free group was set as 100% and the amount of the non-stimulated group as 0% (IFN-α production rate, % of vehicle) was calculated. The relative value of the IFN-α concentration was incorporated into analysis software Prism (Version 5.0, GraphPad Software), the “Nonlinear Regression Log (inhibitor) vs Reaction Variable Inclination” was selected for each compound, and then sigmoid fitting with restrictions of Bottom=0 and Top=100 was performed to create a graph of the concentration reaction curve and calculate 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50). The results are shown in
A mouse acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) model was generated in accordance with a previous report (Puliaev R et al. Differential requirement for IFN-gamma in CTL maturation in acute murine graft-versus-host disease. J Immunol. 173, 910-9 (2004)). Splenocytes were prepared from euthanized donor mice (C57BL/6N), suspended in PBS without hemolysis of erythrocytes, and administered to host mice, BDF1 mice, from the tail vein (the number of transfer cells was adjusted to be 7 to 8×107 cells/0.2 mL/mouse in every test, and matched between individuals within the same test). In the Normal group, 0.2 mL of PBS was administered in place of the cells. The test substance was crushed in an agate mortar, and then suspended in a 0.5% hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) solution to prepare a dosage solution. In the Vehicle group, 0.5% HPC was used as a dosage solution. To the host mice, the dosage solution was forcibly orally administered (0.2 mL/mouse) twice daily with a feeding needle from the morning of Day 0 (cell transfer) to the end of the experiment. The tail vein was cut without anesthesia on Day 7 and a small amount of blood was collected with a hematocrit tube (EDTA). Plasma was collected by centrifugation and IFN-γ concentration in plasma was measured with an αLISA kit (Mouse IFN-γ alphaLISA, PerkinElimer, AL501C). The graph of
Furthermore, as a result of similar tests, the compounds of Examples 44 and 104 exhibited significant suppression effects at an effective dose (the dose of the experimental group having a p-value of 0.05 or less relative to the Vehicle group) of 10 mg/kg, BID and 15 mg/kg, BID or more, respectively.
A mouse chronic graft-versus-host (GVH) model was generated in accordance with a previous report (Via CS. Advances in lupus stemming from the parent-into-F1 model. Trends Immunol. 31, 236-45 (2010)). Splenocytes were prepared from euthanized donor mice (DBA2 mice), suspended in PBS without hemolysis of erythrocytes, and administered to host mice, BDF1 mice, from tail veins (1×108 cells/0.2 mL/mouse) at Day 0 and Day 4, twice. In the Normal group, 0.2 mL of PBS was administered in place of the cells. The test substance was crushed in an agate mortar, and then suspended in a 0.5% hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) solution to prepare a dosage solution. In the Vehicle group, 0.5% HPC was used as a dosage solution. To the host mice, the dosage solution was forcibly orally administered (0.2 mL/mouse) twice daily with a feeding needle from Day 4 (second cell transfer) to the end of the experiment. Urine was collected on Day 32 under free diet with a metabolic cage. Urine protein concentration was measured with a urine protein test kit (total protein kit microTP test wako, FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical Corporation, pyrogallol red method), and urine creatinine concentration was measured using a creatinine test kit (LabAssay™ creatinine, FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical Corporation, Jaffe method), and the ratio of urine protein to creatinine was calculated for each individual. The graph of
Furthermore, as a result of similar tests, the effective doses (the dose of the experimental group showing a p-value of 0.05 or less relative to the Vehicle group) of the compounds of Examples 97 and 104 were both 15 mg/kg, BID.
To NZB/W F1 mice that naturally develop SLE-like symptoms and nephritis, test substance was forcibly orally administered (0.2 mL/mouse) twice daily with a feeding needle, starting at the age of 12 weeks. The compound of Example 44 was orally administered at 30, 100 mg/kg, BID, and MMF was orally administered at 60 mg/kg, QD. The N was set to 20 in both of the Vehicle group and the compound of Example 44 administration group, and set to 15 in the MMF administration group. The test substance was crushed in an agate mortar, and then suspended in a 0.5% hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) solution to prepare a dosage solution. In the Vehicle group, 0.5% HPC was used as a dosage solution. Mice were observed daily, and those that reached a dying state such as weight loss and dyspnea were euthanized, and the survival rate was evaluated. The number of survival days was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method and the log rank test was performed. In the Vehicle group, deaths were observed from the age of 29 weeks, and the survival rate at the end of the experiment (at the age of 44 weeks) was 35%. In contrast, in the Example 44 (30, 100 mg/kg) group and the MMF group, no death was observed until the end of the experiment, resulting in significant improvement of survival rate.
