The present invention relates to pharmaceutical technology and, in particular, to a compound as a specific inhibitor voltage-gated sodium ion channel subtype Nav1.8 and the uses.
With the advent of the aging global population, the scope of chronic pain diseases has gradually expanded, more than one-third of the world's population suffer from chronic pain, and the number of arthritis patients in China is as high as 120 million; meanwhile, there are at least 80 to 90 million patients with neuropathic chronic pain in China, and the population is growing; in addition, cancer will eventually become a chronic disease, with the cancer pain tormenting such patients. It is reported that more than half of the cancer patients in China have not received cancer pain treatment. Pain is originally a mechanism for self-protection in animals or human body, however, many persistent pains are beyond their usefulness and bring great pain to patients' physical or mental health. Therefore, pain management is an important factor in improving the quality of life of cancer patients, and its market prospect is huge.
In 2005, the global market for pain relievers totaled more than $80 billion, with prescription drug sales of approximately $20 billion. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) statistics, as many as 25 million people in the United States struggle with pain every day, of which 23 million adults suffer from severe pain. In China, with the rising manufacturing industry, the number of industrial workers has expanded dramatically, the long-term labor is prone to various strains and arthralgia, and this group has become another large group of pain medication consumption. Data shows that over-the-counter drug market for painkillers is growing rapidly in China, and its sales are second only to cold medicines, accounting for about 20% of the proportion.
However, the abuse of opioid painkillers has a staggering impact on society. According to WHO estimates, 69,000 people die of opioid overdose and 15 million people are dependent on opioids (i.e., opioid addiction) each year worldwide, and the importance of developing new safe and effective pain medications cannot be overstated.
The inward current of voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav) is an important link in the generation and conduction of action potentials in central and peripheral neurons, and increased neuron excitability or reactivity to stimuli is an important mechanism for the development of various pains. Therefore, the role of voltage-gated sodium channels in pain conduction pathways, especially in peripheral sensory neurons, has been a hot topic in pain research.
There are nine human sodium channels, Nav1.1 to Nav1.9. the Nav1.5, Nav1.8 and Nav1.9 are tetrodotoxin (TTX) insensitive sodium channels, among which Nav1.8 is involved in important ion channels in chronic pain, atrial fibrillation, and Buga syndrome, and are highly selective targets for pain treatment. Nav1.8 is mainly expressed in small-diameter nociceptive neurons and participates in the action potentials and rhythmic firing of sensory neurons. Nav1.8 is regulated by inflammatory mediators and is also upregulated in sciatic nerve injury models, and studies of knockdown and silencing Nav1.8 suggest that it is involved in the regulation of neuropathic and inflammatory pain. Since Nav1.8 is primarily localized to pain-sensing neurons, selective Nav1.8 blockers are unlikely to induce the adverse effects common to non-selective Nav blockers. Therefore, research on screening specific inhibitor on Nav1.8 pain target has become a hot topic; however, the known Nav inhibitors mainly suffer from disadvantages such as narrow therapeutic window, which may be due to their lack of subtype selectivity.
Currently known Nav1.8 inhibitors include PF-01247324, A803467, PF-06305591, and VX150. Among these, the first three compounds were abandoned in the preclinical phase due to insufficient selectivity, poor pharmacokinetic data and low bioavailability. The study of VX-150 is currently in phase II of clinical trials and has met primary clinical endpoints including acute post-surgical pain, chronic pain in osteoarthritis, and neuropathic pain. VX-150 was well tolerated, with no serious adverse events. The FDA has granted VX-150 as breakthrough therapy for the treatment of moderate to severe pain. However, due to the large clinical dose of VX-150 at 1500 mg first dose followed by 750 mg every 12 hours, its activity needs to be further improved. Also, the dissolution and absorption of the compound has been more problematic, and although partially addressed by the prodrug approach, it is still not ideal.
Therefore, the development of Nav1.8 inhibitors with higher affinity, high specificity, and better pharmacokinetics has great social and economic value.
The main technical problem addressed by the present invention is to provide a benzylamine or benzyl alcohol derivative with strong selective inhibition on Nav1.8.
To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a compound characterized by having the structure shown in formula I or its tautomer, mesomer, racemate, enantiomer, diastereoisomer or its mixture form, and pharmaceutically acceptable hydrate, solvate or salt.

Final concentrations of tested solutions are prepared on the testing day and dissolved in extracellular fluid. The extracellular fluid (mM) contains: NaCl, 137; KCl, 4; CaCl2, 1.8; MgCl2, 1; HEPES, 10; glucose 10; pH 7.4 (NaOH titration). All the test solutions and the control solutions contain 0.3% DMSO.

3: Experimental Methods
Cells: all experiments is performed at room temperature. Each cell itself is taken as the corresponding control.
Compounds are all perfused using a perfusion system that utilizes the gravity. At least two cells are tested per concentration. After current stabilization (or 5 minutes), the change in current magnitude before and after the use of the compound is compared to calculate the blocking effect of the compound.
Positive control: The determination of the concentration of Cisapride in positive control is based on its sensitivity to cells, and the concentration with blocking rate about 90% is the optimal concentration used in the positive control. After testing, when Cisapride is 100 nM, the blocking rate is about 90%, so the concentration of positive control Cisapride is set at 100 nM. The method of operation is the same as that of the test compound.
Electrophysiology: Transfer the Cells to the perfusion tank and perfuse with extracellular fluid. The intracellular fluid (mM) contains: K Aspartate, 130; MgCl2, 5; EGTA 5; HEPES, 10; Tris-ATP 4; pH 7.2 (KOH titration). The intracellular fluid is stored in small quantities in portions in a −80° C. refrigerator, and melt on the day of the experiment. Electrodes are drawn with PC-10 (Narishige, Japan). Recording is performed with whole-cell diaphragm clamp. Noise is filtered with one-fifth of the sampling frequency.
Test procedure and the results: Cells are clamped at −80 mV, then depolarized to 40 mV with sustained 4-second square waves, and then hyperpolarized to −40 mV with sustained 2-second square waves to give hERG tail current (Tail current is given in the attached FIGURE). This process is repeated every 20 seconds. The hERG tail current is the pure hERG current. The maximum tail current triggered by the second square wave is detected, and when the current is stabilized, the test compound is perfused. The strength of the block is calculated when the response is stabilized.
The strong inhibition of the compounds on hERG poses serious cardiac safety risks such as prolongation of the cardiac QT interval. As shown from the data in Table 9: The inhibition of some compounds on hERG in this patent is significantly weaker than VX-150 (clinical phase II) and therefore are likely to be of a better cardiac safety profile.

2.2 Electrophysiology
Transfer the cells to the perfusion tank and perfuse with extracellular fluid. The intracellular fluid (mM) is: Aspartic acid, 140; MgCl2, 2; EGTA 11; HEPES, 10; pH 7.2 (CsOH titration). The intracellular fluid is stored in small quantities in portions in a −80° C. refrigerator, and melted on the day of the experiment. Electrodes are drawn with PC-10 (Narishige, Japan). Recording is performed with whole-cell diaphragm clamp. Noise is filtered with one-fifth of the sampling frequency.
2.3 Test Voltage Equation (Resting) and the Results
Cells are clamped at −80 mV and then depolarized to −10 mV with a sustained 10 ms square wave to obtain Na ion channel currents (see the FIGURE). This process is repeated every 5 seconds. The maximum current triggered by the square wave is detected, and when the current is stabilized, the test compound is perfused. The strength of the block is calculated after the response is stabilized.
It can be seen that some compounds of this patent have good selectivity to Nav ion channel subtypes. In particular, inhibition of Nav1.5 may cause cardiac side effects. The inhibitory effect of some compounds in this patent on Nav1.5 is significantly weaker than that of VX-150 (clinical phase II), and therefore are likely to show a better safety.
Test Case 4: In Vivo Pharmacokinetic Testing of Compounds in Rats
All SD rats in the test are male and are purchased from Shanghai Sippe-Bk Lab Animal Co., Ltd. Each compound is administered orally (100 mg/kg, 3 rats per group) at single dose to SD rats for pharmacokinetic study. The solutions are prepared on the same day of administration, e.g., the tested compound is suspended in 5% DMSO+95% saline, get vortexed for 2 min, and sonicated for 5 min to prepare a drug delivery system. The animals are fasted for 10-14 hours before oral administration, and resumed food 4 hours after administration. After oral administration by gavage in SD rats, pharmacokinetic samples are collected from jugular vein at the following time points: 0, 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h and 24 h. Three whole blood samples are collected at each time point in a volume of about 0.2 mL and anticoagulated using sodium heparin. Blood samples are placed on ice immediately after collection and plasma is separated by centrifugation within 1 h (centrifugation conditions: 6800 rpm, 6 min, 2-8° C.). The collected plasma is stored in a −80° C. refrigerator prior to analysis.
In pharmacokinetic tests in rat, the control compound VX-150 is a prodrug (WO2015089361, compound 9), after administration, analysis is performed to test its active form (WO2014120808, compound 10). The aforementioned in vitro pharmacological tests are performed using the active ingredient (WO2014120808, compound 10).
Active form of VX-150 has very poor solubility and absorption of oral solid dosage form shows unsatisfactory outcome, thus it was developed as a prodrug to solve the solubility problem. Some of the compounds in this patent, however, shows significant pharmacokinetic characteristics in rat without pro-drug modification.
According to the above data, it can be seen that the compounds of the present invention have significant inhibitory effects on Nav1.8 ion channel activity. And some of the compounds have significant advantages over VX-150 in terms of cellular activity, ion channel selectivity, hERG safety, pharmacokinetics in rats, etc. They have broad applications as Nav1.8 inhibitors in the treatment of analgesia, atrial fibrillation, and Buga syndrome.
