Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure belongs to the field of pharmaceutics, and relates to an oxa-azasipro derivative of general formula (I), a preparation method therefor, a pharmaceutical composition containing the derivative, and use thereof as a therapeutic agent, in particular use thereof as a PI3Kδ inhibitor and use thereof in preparing a medicament for the treatment of a disease or condition improved by inhibiting PI3K6.


BACKGROUND

Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) is a key regulatory kinase in the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and is involved in regulating cell proliferation, cell differentiation, apoptosis, angiogenesis and the like. Abnormal activation of PI3K is closely related to the development of various tumors, and different types of PI3Ks play different functions. PI3K has four subtypes: α, β, γ and δ, where PI3Kδ is mainly present in immune cells and blood cells and is closely related to the occurrence of immunity, hematological tumors and inflammation (Cell, 170(4), 605-635).


PI3Kδ is mainly expressed in immune cells and hematopoietic cells, and it is involved in BCR signaling in B cells and controls the development and maturation of B cells in the body. When an antigen stimulates the body, specific surface immunoglobulin Ig on the surface of the BCR can bind to the antigen, so that ITAM in an intracellular segment of a CD79A/B complex is phosphorylated, and the phosphorylated ITAM can recruit and activate SYK and further activate BTK and a downstream molecule PLCγ2 thereof. Activated SYK can bind to the P85 subunit of PI3Kδ to activate PI3Kδ, thus generating PIP3. The generated PIP3 can be recognized by the N-terminal domain of BTK and interacts with the N-terminal domain to mediate BTK recruitment to the membrane, so that BTK-mediated B cell signaling is activated, and thereby the expression of a plurality of related genes is induced. In addition, phosphorylated CD19 can also recruit PI3Kδ on cell membrane, activate PI3Kδ, catalyze PIP2 to generate PIP3, activate AKT, and promote cell proliferation, migration, apoptosis and other processes (N Engl J Med, 379, 2052-2062). In addition to regulating B cells, a recent study reported that PI3Kδ activation can promote the development, maturation and recruitment of Treg cells (Cancer Immunol Res, 2, 1080-1089). Inhibition of P3K6 can promote the proliferation and survival of CD8+ memory T cells (Cancer Res, 77, 4135-4145). Therefore, PI3Kδ is an ideal target for treating B cell lymphoma, and the development of a selective PI3Kδ inhibitor as a medicament for treating hematologic tumors is drawing more and more attention.


Idelalisib is the first approved PI3Kδ selective inhibitor, and it was approved for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), follicular lymphoma (FL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) in 2014. Duvelisib (acting on PI3K δ and γ) was subsequently approved for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and follicular lymphoma (FL) in 2018. Although the PI3Kδ inhibitors have shown very good results in treating these hematologic tumors, theses early inhibitors often show poor selectivity for PI3K kinase and thus clinically show much drug-related hepatotoxicity and gastrointestinal toxicity. To further reduce the potential side effects of PI3Kδ inhibitors, many companies have been actively developing the second-generation highly selective PI3Kδ inhibitors in recent years, typically parsaclisib, ME-401 and IOA-244, which are currently in different clinical stages. IOA-244 is a second-generation PI3Kδ inhibitor developed by the iOnctura (WO2011058149 and WO2014121901). Compared with traditional PI3Kδ inhibitors, it is an ATP non-competitive inhibitor, and this characteristic allows it to have high selectivity for inhibiting the PI3Kδ subtype.


Considering that the use of the first-generation PI3Kδ inhibitors currently on the market is limited in more patient populations due to their obvious side effects, there is a significant unmet medical need to develop a second-generation highly selective PI3Kδ inhibitor for the relevant patient populations.


Currently, relevant patent applications include WO2011058149A1, WO2015196759A1, WO2015196335A1, WO2014209980A1, WO2004069824A1 and the like.
