Abstract

Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present application relates to the field of medicinal chemistry, in particular to a pyridine derivative used as a lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a preparation method therefor and a use thereof.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Histone lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is the first reported histone demethylase that, with the assistance of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), can specifically recognize H3K4 and H3K9 substrates and remove their single-methyl or double-methyl modifications. At the same time, the LSD1 can form transcriptional regulatory complexes with multiple factors, and under the recruitment of transcription factors, it can reach a promoter region of a designated gene, thereby regulating gene expression.


Researches have shown that the LSD1 is related to various diseases, is highly expressed in various tumor cells, and is closely related to poor tumor prognosis. Downregulation of LSD1 expression or inhibition of its activity can significantly inhibit tumor cell growth. Therefore, developing an efficient and specific LSD1 inhibitor is of great significance for the treatment of diseases such as tumors.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present application relates to a pyridine derivative as an LSD1 inhibitor, and particularly relates to a pyridine derivative as well as a preparation method therefor and an application thereof in medicines, in particular, a pyridine derivative as shown in formula I below and a use thereof in preparation of drugs for treating LSD1-mediated diseases, more specifically, a use in preparation of drugs suitable for tumors.

Test Example 8: In-Vitro hERG Inhibitory Activity Determining Experiment
1. Test Principle

A rapidly-activated human delay rectifier outward potassium current was mainly mediated by an hERG ion channel and participated in human myocardial cell repolarization. Drug blocking of this current was the main cause of prolonged QT interval syndrome, even acute arrhythmia and sudden death in clinical practice. A whole cell sheet technology was used to detect the blocking effects of compounds on hERG channels on HEK293 cells stably expressing hERG channels, and a median inhibitory concentration IC50 of the compound was determined. As part of cardiac safety evaluation, its safety in-vitro screening for cardiac toxicity was preliminarily evaluated.


2. Test Materials
2.1. Test Cell Line:





    • HEK293 cells stably expressing hEGR ion channels





2.2. Compounds:





    • Active drug: CC-90011, Chengdu Hyperway Pharmaceuticals, batch number HBW-013-177-77;

    • Tested drug: compound 16.





2.3. Test Instruments:





    • Patch clamp instrument: PC-505B

    • Micromanipulator: MP-225

    • Instrument for drawing electrodes: PC-10 (Narishige, Japan)





3. Test Method

Cells were transferred into a perfusion trough, 137 mM NaCl, 4 mM KCl, 1.8 mM CaCl2, 1 mM MgCl2, 10 mM HEPES and 10 mM glucose were adopted to prepare an extracellular fluid, and NaOH was used to adjust to 7.4 (pH) for perfusion. Electrodes were drawn using PC-10 (Narishige, Japan). The whole cell patch clamp was used for recording, and noise was filtered using one fifth of a sampling frequency. The cells were clamped at −80 mV, then depolarized to 40 mV using square waves lasting for 4 seconds, and then hyperpolarized to −40 mV using square waves lasting for 2 seconds to obtain an hERG tail current. This procedure was repeated every 20 seconds. The hERG tail current was a pure hERG current. A maximum current triggered by the second square wave was detected, after the maximum current was stable, the compounds were tested through perfusion, and after reaction was stable, a blocking intensity was calculated.

1.3. Experimental Process

CB17 SCID mice, female, 6-8 weeks, weight about 18-22 grams, and each mouse was subcutaneously inoculated with 0.1 mL (1×107 cells+matrigel) of Kasumi-1 cells on the right side. When an average volume of tumors reached 100-200 cubic millimeters, group administration was performed, see the table below (Table 12) for administration dosages and methods. The tumor volume was measured twice a week, the weights of the mice as well as lengths and widths of tumors were recorded in each time of measurement, and the tumor volume=length×width×width/2 mm3. When the average tumor volume of a solvent group grew to 3000 cubic millimeters or above, administration was ended, each group of mice was killed and dissected to take out tumor lumps, the tumor weight of each mouse was weighed and the tumor volume was measured, and an average tumor volume difference between a tested compound group and the solvent group was obtained via comparison. The tumor suppression effects of the compounds were evaluated with TGI (%), which could reflect a tumor growth inhibition rate.





Calculation of TGI (%):TGI (%)=[1−(current average tumor volume of compounds−average tumor volume at the beginning of compounds)/(current average tumor volume of solvent group−average tumor volume at the beginning of solvent group)]×100%
