The present application claims the right of the following priority for: CN202010027384.1, application date: Jan. 10, 2020.
The present disclosure relates to a method for preparing a pyrrolidinyl urea derivative as a TrkA inhibitor, and also relates to an intermediate compound of compound represented by formula (I) and a preparation method thereof.
Tropomyosin-related kinase (Trk) is a high-affinity receptor tyrosine kinase activated by a group of soluble growth factors called nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophic factor (NT), whose family consists of three members (TrkA, TrkB, TrkC). NGF, BDNF and NT-4/5 play an important role in many physiological regulation processes such as signal maintenance, signal transmission, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and cell survival of neuronal cells through receptor Trk. There is a lot of evidence that inhibitors of the NGF/Trk signaling pathway are effective in many preclinical models of pain; inhibitors of the NGF/Trk signaling pathway have also been shown to be effective in many preclinical models of inflammatory diseases. Furthermore, overexpression, activation, amplification and/or mutation of Trk kinase are associated with many tumors or cancers. Therefore, Trk has emerged as an important class of therapeutic target, attracting extensive research and development interest. The TrkA inhibitors of the present disclosure can solve the treatment needs of pain, cancer, inflammation, neurodegenerative diseases and certain infectious diseases.
