专利说明:
[0001] The present invention relates to use of a carbamate compound of the following Formula 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof for alleviating or treating developmental disorder including fragile X syndrome, Angelman syndrome or Rett syndrome:
[0002] Treatment for developmental disorders such as fragile X syndrome (FXS), Rett syndrome and Angelman syndrome is limited.
[0003] Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a genetic disorder that is the most common single gene cause of autism, especially the genetic cause of intellectual disability among boys. Fragile X syndrome is caused by mutations in the fragment X mental retardation 1 (Fmr1) gene located on the X chromosome. The Fmr1 gene is the first identified autism-related gene and encodes a fragment X mental retardation protein (FMRP), an RNA binding protein that regulates translation. That is, a protein FMRP is made by the Fmr1 gene-which is necessary for normal brain development, and this protein is not sufficiently made in fragile X syndrome (Source: Center for Disease Control and Prevention). This functional loss typically occurs when there is an expansion of CGG trinucleotide repeats in the 5' untranslated region of the Fmr1 gene. This extension appears as a weak or "fragile-like" end on the X chromosome.
[0004] Fragile X syndrome occurs in both men and women, but the symptoms of women are relatively mild compared to those of men, and the incidence is higher in men than in women. According to another report, this disorder occurs in 1 in 4,600 men and 1 in 8,000 women (Source: Genetics Home Reference, National Library of Medicine).
[0005] Symptoms of fragile X syndrome include developmental delays, learning disability, and sociobehavioral disorders (mismatched eyes, anxiety, attention problems, flapping hands, talking or acting without thinking, excessively active). Men have moderate to severe intellectual disability, and some women have normal category intelligence or some have intellectual disability. Autism spectrum disorder occurs frequently in people with fragile X syndrome (Source: Center for Disease Control and Prevention). In addition, there is a risk of seizure in fragile X syndrome, and it has been known that about 14% of men and about 4% of women experience seizures (Berry-Kravis et al., 2010, "Seizures in Fragile X Syndrome: Characteristics and Comorbid Diagnoses," Am J Intellect Dev Disabil. 115 (6): 461-72).
[0006] In order to diagnose fragile X syndrome, an abnormality of the FMR1 gene is diagnosed through a blood DNA test.
[0007] Up to now, there is no fundamental treatment for FXS. Adequate education can help, and sometimes medications are used for alleviating behavioral disorders and seizures.
[0008] Angelman syndrome is a disease that occurs when a specific gene on chromosome 15 is not genetically inherited. Symptoms of Angelman syndrome include developmental delays, intellectual disability, sociobehavioral disorders (easily excited personality, excessively active, attention problems) and seizures.
[0009] In addition, autism categorical disorders frequently occur in people with Angelman syndrome. Up to now, there is no fundamental treatment for Angelman syndrome. Appropriate education can help, and sometimes medications are used for alleviating the symptoms of Angelman syndrome described above.
[0010] Rett syndrome is a disease caused by genetic mutation of the MECP2 gene. Symptoms of Rett Syndrome include developmental delays, intellectual disability, sociobehavioral disorders (easily excited personality, excessively active, attention problems) and seizures.
[0011] In addition, people with Rett syndrome exhibit symptoms similar to autism categorical disorders. Up to now, there is no fundamental treatment for Rett syndrome. Adequate education can help, and sometimes medications are used for alleviating the symptoms of Rett syndrome described above.
[0012] That is, fragile X syndrome, Angelman syndrome and Rett syndrome have common symptoms of developmental delays, intellectual disability, sociobehavioral disorders, seizure and autism categorical disorder (or similar symptoms). In addition, fragile X syndrome, Angelman syndrome and Rett syndrome have no fundamental treatment, and thus have a common feature in that drugs are administered for the purpose of alleviating their symptoms.

[0068] Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in more detail through working examples. However, the following working examples are only intended to illustrate one or more embodiments and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Preparation Example: Synthesis of carbamic acid (R)-1-(2-chlorophenyl)-2-tetrazol-2-yl-ethyl ester
[0069] Carbamic acid (R)-1-(2-chlorophenyl)-2-tetrazol-2-yl-ethyl ester (Test Compound) was prepared according to the method described in Preparation Example 50 of International Publication No. WO 2010/150946 . Example 1: Anticonvulsant efficacy test for audiogenic seizure in Fmrl gene-deficient mouse model
[0070] The Fmr1 gene knockout mouse model lacks the FMRP protein due to the destruction of the Fmrl gene, and the typical phenotype of this mouse is audiogenic seizure, excessive locomotor activity, cognitive deficit, attention problem and the like. As such, the Fmr1 gene-deficient mouse model shows several clinical symptoms observed in developmental disorders such as fragile X syndrome, Angelman syndrome or Rett syndrome, and has been used as a means to verify drug efficacy for researching developmental disorders and development of therapeutic agents (Kazdoba et al., 2014, "Modeling fragile X syndrome in the Fmrl knockout mouse", Intractable Rare Dis Res. 2014 Nov; 3(4): 118-133; Bakker et al., 1994, "Fmrl knockout mice: A model to study fragile X mental retardation", Cell, 15; 78(1): 23-33). Experimental animals
[0071] Male FVB.129P2-Pde6b + Tyrc-ch Fmr1tm1Cgr /J gene-deficient mice were purchased from Jackson Laboratories, and audiogenic seizure experiments were performed at 3 weeks of age. After purchase, the experimental animals were maintained under a controlled lighting environment (12 hours lighting/12 hours non-lighting) and maintained at a temperature of 20-23°C and about 50% relative humidity. Food and water were provided ad libitum. Mice were randomly divided into groups. The test was carried out under lighting. Drug
[0072] MPEP (2-methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)pyridine) HCl was used as a positive control, dissolved in sterile injectable saline, and administered intraperitoneally at a dose of 30 mg/kg. MPEP was prepared at a volume of 10 ml/kg and administered 30 minutes before the test.
[0073] Test Compound was dissolved in 30% PEG 300, and two doses of 10 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg were used. Test Compound was prepared at a volume of 10 ml/kg and administered intraperitoneally 30 minutes before the test. As a negative control, a vehicle (30% PEG 300) was administered. Treatment Groups
[0074] 1. Fmr1 gene-deficient mouse - vehicle administration2. Fmr1 gene-deficient mouse - MPEP 30 mg/kg administration3. Fmr1 gene-deficient mouse - Test Compound 10 mg/kg administration4. Fmr1 gene-deficient mouse - Test Compound 20 mg/kg administration
[0075] Ten mice per group were used. Audiogenic seizure test
[0076] Vehicle, MPEP or Test Compound was administered to mice of 21 days of age 30 minutes before the test. Mice were placed in a Plexiglas chamber for 15 seconds and exposed to 135 decibels (dB) of sound. During the test for 5 minutes, the mice were scored as following criteria based on the reaction of the mouse, the time required until the reaction and the intensity of the seizure. 0: No response 1: Wild running and jumping 2: Clonic seizures 3: Clonic-tonic seizures 4: Tonic seizures 5: Respiratory arrest
[0077] The following endpoints were measured and observed, and in the case of animals that had no reaction, the time to reaction was set to 300 seconds for convenience in analysis. 1. Time to seizure occurrence (300 seconds if seizure does not occur) 2. Time to respiratory arrest (300 seconds if mouse survives without respiratory arrest) 3. Seizure score 4. Percent survival 5. Percent seized Statistical analysis
[0078] Data were analyzed by ANOVA, and if appropriate, Fisher PLSD post-hoc analysis was performed. The average seizure intensity was analyzed non-parametrically. The effect was defined as significant when p <0.05. Results are represented as mean values ± standard error. Test results1. Weight
[0079] When the body weight measured before drug administration on the test day was analyzed by 1-way ANOVA, there was no significant difference by group. 2. Time to seizure occurrence
[0080] The groups in which MPEP (30 mg/kg) and Test Compound (10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg) were administered significantly increased the time required to develop seizures compared to the vehicle administration group. Mice in the MPEP and Test Compound administration groups did not cause seizures, and thus the time required for seizure occurrence was recorded as 300 seconds (Fig. 1). 3. Time to respiratory arrest
[0081] The groups in which MPEP (30 mg/kg) and Test Compound (10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg) were administered significantly increased the time required to respiratory arrest compared to the vehicle administration group. Mice in the MPEP and Test Compound administration groups did not cause respiratory arrest, and thus the time required to respiratory arrest was recorded as 300 seconds (Fig. 2). 4. Median seizure score
[0082] In the groups in which MPEP (30 mg/kg) and Test Compound (10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg) were administered, the seizure intensity level of the mice was significantly reduced compared to the vehicle administration group (Fig. 3). 5. Percent survival
[0083] In the groups in which MPEP (30 mg/kg) and Test Compound (10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg) were administered, the viability of mice was significantly increased compared to the vehicle administration group, and 100% of mice in the MPEP and Test Compound administration groups survived (Fig. 4). 6. Percent seized
[0084] No seizures occurred in the groups in which MPEP (30 mg/kg) and Test Compound (10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg) were administered (Fig. 5). Example 2: Open field test and fear conditioning test in Fmrl gene-deficient mouse model Experimental animals
[0085] Male FVB.129P2-Pde6b + Tyrc-ch Fmr1tm1Cgr /J gene-deficient mice were purchased from Jackson Laboratories. After purchase, the experimental animals were maintained under a controlled lighting environment (12 hours lighting/12 hours non-lighting) and maintained at a temperature of 20-23°C and about 50% relative humidity. Food and water were provided ad libitum. Mice were randomly divided into groups. The drugs were administered once a day for 6 days at 8 weeks of age. The test was carried out under lighting. Drug
[0086] Test Compound was dissolved in 30% PEG 300, and two doses of 10 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg were used. Test Compound was prepared at a volume of 10 ml/kg and administered intraperitoneally 30 minutes before the test. Test Group
[0087] 1. Wild-type mouse - vehicle administration2. Fmr1 gene-deficient mouse - vehicle administration3. Fmr1 gene-deficient mouse - Test Compound 10 mg/kg administration4. Fmr1 gene-deficient mouse - Test Compound 20 mg/kg administration
[0088] Ten mice per group were used. Open field test and fear conditioning test
[0089] 1. Locomotor activity: Locomotor activity test was performed on day 4 of administration in the course of administering daily for 6 days in 8-week-old mice.A Plexiglas square chamber (27.3 × 27.3 × 20.3 cm) surrounded by infrared rays was used to measure the horizontal and vertical movements. Mice were acclimatized to the laboratory for at least 1 hour before the test and then placed in the center of the chamber to measure activity in the open field for 1 hour. The test performed space was cleaned with each mouse change. The distance was measured by the breakage of the horizontal light beam by the movement of the mouse. The hourly change of activity and rearing activity (hind legs standing) was expressed in 5-minute units. The total distance traveled and the total number of rearing activity were the sum of the values for 60 minutes.2. Fear conditioning test: On day 5 and day 6 of administration, and 30 minutes after administration, training and drug efficacy tests were carried out, respectively. The test was performed using a fear conditioning system manufactured by Coulbourn Instruments (PA, USA).
[0090] Training was done 30 minutes after administration on day 5 of administration. The mice were placed in a conditioning chamber and accustomed to the environment for 120 seconds, and then exposed to 6 kHz, 75 dB sound stimulus (conditioned stimulus) for 20 seconds. 30 seconds after the end of the conditioned stimulation, 0.5 mA electrostimulation shock (unconditioned stimulus) was applied to the mouse paws. Mice were left in the conditioning chamber for an additional 60 seconds and then returned to the original cage.
[0091] On the morning of day 6, 30 minutes after administration mice were placed in the same chamber as the previous day, and then trained for 5 minutes without shock or other obstructions in order to perform a drug efficacy test for contextual memory. On day 6, after 4 hours of the contextual conditioning test, a drug efficacy test was performed on cued memory by stimulus signals. The mice were exposed to a new environment for 2 minutes (before the stimulation signal), and conditions and stimulation were applied three times in total for 20 seconds. Freezing behavior was defined as the complete loss of movement and was captured using a video system and FreezeView software (Coulbourn Instruments PA, USA). The chamber was cleaned with 70% ethanol with each mouse change. Statistical analysis
[0092] The data were analyzed by ANOVA, and if appropriate, Fisher PLSD post-hoc analysis was performed using Statview software. The effect was defined as significant when p <0.05. Results are represented as mean values ± standard error. Open field test results1. Locomotor activity
[0093] The change in activity over time for 60 minutes is shown in Figure 6A, and the sum of the total travel distances is shown in Figure 6B. As a result of ANOVA analysis, Fmrl gene-deficient mice in which the vehicle was administered showed significantly increased activity compared to wild-type mice. In addition, activity was significantly decreased in the Fmrl gene-deficient mice in which Test Compound (20 mg/kg) was administered in comparison with the vehicle administration group. 2. Rearing
[0094] The hourly change in frequency of rearing activity for 60 minutes is shown in Figure 7A, and the total number of rearing activity is shown in Figure 7B. As a result of ANOVA analysis, Fmr1 gene-deficient mice in which the vehicle was administered showed increased number of rearing activity compared to wild-type mice, but it was not significant. In addition, rearing activity was decreased in the Fmr1 gene-deficient mice in which Test Compound (20 mg/kg) was administered in comparison with the vehicle administration group. Fear conditioning test results1. Contextual fear conditioning
[0095] The percentage of freezing during the contextual fear conditioning test is represented in Figure 8. As a result of ANOVA analysis, Fmrl gene-deficient mice in which the vehicle was administered showed significantly reduced freezing compared to wild-type mice. In addition, freezing was significantly increased in the Fmr1 gene-deficient mice in which Test Compound (10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg), which is similar to wild-type mice, in comparison with the vehicle administration group. 2. Fear conditioning test by stimulus signal (Cue test)
[0096] The percentage of freezing during the fear conditioning test by stimulus signal is represented in Figure 9. When all groups were analyzed, there were no significant differences between wild-type mice and Fmr1 gene-deficient mice. However, t-test showed significant differences between wild-type mice and Fmr1 gene-deficient mice. In the Fmr1 gene-deficient mice, a 1-way ANOVA analysis was performed to compare Test Compound administration group with the vehicle administration group. When the time of giving the stimulus signal was compared with the time after stimulus signal, there was a significant effect of the administration in the rate of freezing. While the stimulus signal was given, Test Compound significantly increased the rate of freezing in Fmr1 gene-deficient mice at both doses. After the stimulus signal, there was a significant increase in freezing at the dose of 20 mg/kg Test Compound.
