Background

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a disease in which kidney damage and reduced kidney function persist. CKD, if advanced, leads to end-stage renal failure (ESRD), requiring dialysis, kidney transplantation. Further, many clinical studies have shown that CKD increases the risk of morbidity and mortality in cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction, stroke, heart failure, etc. Therefore, it is important to prevent the severity of CKD and to suppress the onset of cardiovascular diseases.

CKD is defined as a decrease in renal damage and/or Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) (less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m)2) The state lasts for more than 3 months. Renal impairment is diagnosed by urine abnormalities, image diagnosis, blood, and pathology, and the presence of proteinuria in urine abnormalities (proteinuria of 0.15 g/gCr or more, or albuminuria of 30 mg/gCr or more) is particularly important. GFR was measured by inulin clearance, but was also evaluated briefly by estimating GFR (eGFR) using serum creatinine values.

Although CKD has few subjective symptoms at the initial stage, if the disease progresses, symptoms such as nocturia, edema, anemia, a sense of lassitude, shortness of breath, and the like are observed.

As animal models showing CKD-like renal damage and reduced renal function, salt-loaded SDT-obese rats, 5/6 kidney extirpated rats, and the like are known (non-patent documents 1 and 2).

2- {4- [ (9R) -9-hydroxy-2- (3-hydroxy-3-methylbutoxy) -9- (trifluoromethyl) -9H-fluoren-4-yl ] -1H-pyrazol-1-yl } -2-methylpropanamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a monohydrate of compound a, which is compound a, is described in patent document 1 and patent document 2. Patent document 1 describes that compound a and its monohydrate have pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDHK) inhibitory activity and are useful as agents for diabetes, insulin resistance syndrome, metabolic syndrome, hyperglycemia, hyperlactacidosis, diabetic complications, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, dyslipidemia, atherosclerosis, peripheral artery disease, intermittent claudication, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cerebral ischemia, stroke, mitochondrial disease, mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, cancer, or pulmonary hypertension. Patent document 2 describes a method for producing compound a or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a monohydrate of compound a.

Test example 1: inhibition of urinary protein excretion and renal lesion progression by oral administration of monohydrate of Compound A in saline-loaded SDT-obese rat model

Saline-loaded spontaneous diabetic Torii obese (SDT-obese) rats were used to evaluate the urinary protein excretion amount and the renal lesion progression inhibitory effect caused by compound a. Evaluation was carried out with reference to non-patent document 1. As the experimental animals, 6-week-old male SDT-obese rats (Japanese クレア Co., Ltd.) were used. A usual powdered feed (CRF-1 powder, オリエンタル Yeast Co., Ltd.) containing 0.005w/w% of a monohydrate of Compound A as a free form of Compound A was prepared.

1w/v% saline was administered to the control group (vehicle) and the compound A administration group (compound A). In addition, the group to which saline-free water was administered was used as a pathological control group (normal). Compound a was orally administered for 14 weeks by feeding the above feed containing compound a while saline was administered to the compound a administration group. The above-mentioned usual powder feed without compound a was fed to the control group and the pathological control group. Urine was collected for 6 hours (10 weeks after the start of administration), and the kidney was removed (14 weeks after the start of administration).

After the urine amount was measured for urine, the urine protein concentration was measured by absorbance at a wavelength of 590 nm using a total protein quantification kit (トネイン TP, tsukamur pharmaceutical co. The urinary protein excretion (mg/6 hours) was calculated from the urine volume and the protein concentration.

For kidney, tissue was fixed with 10% neutral buffered formalin (Wako pure chemical industries, Ltd.), and tissue sections were stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE).

The mean and standard deviation of the urine protein excretion amount of each group were calculated, and the results are shown in FIG. 1. A representative example of a kidney tissue image is shown in fig. 2.

Test example 2: 5/6 inhibition of urinary protein excretion and renal lesion progression by oral administration of monohydrate of Compound A in rat model of renal extirpation

5/6 kidney extirpated rats were used to evaluate the urinary protein excretion amount and the renal lesion progression inhibitory effect caused by Compound A. Evaluation was carried out with reference to non-patent document 2. The experimental animals used were male Wistar rats (japan エスエルシー co., ltd.) whose right kidney was 60% and left kidney was all removed at 7 weeks of age and 8 weeks of age. A group that was similarly operated except for the kidney extirpation treatment was used as a pseudo treatment group (pseudo treatment). A usual powdered feed (CRF-1 powder, オリエンタル Yeast Co., Ltd.) containing 0.0218 to 0.0317w/w% of a monohydrate of Compound A as a free form of Compound A was prepared.

The group to which compound a was administered (compound a) was fed the above-mentioned feed containing compound a from 21 weeks of age, and compound a was orally administered for 10 weeks. The control group (vehicle) and the sham-treated group were fed the above-mentioned normal powder feed without compound a. Urine was collected for 24 hours (5 weeks after the start of administration), and the kidney was removed (10 weeks after the start of administration).

After the urine amount was measured for urine, the protein concentration was measured by absorbance at a wavelength of 590 nm using a total protein quantification kit (トネイン TP, tsukamur pharmaceutical co. The urinary protein excretion (mg/day) was calculated from the urine volume and protein concentration.

For kidney, tissue was fixed with 10% neutral buffered formalin (Wako pure chemical industries, Ltd.), and tissue sections were stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE).

The mean and standard deviation of the urine protein excretion amount of each group were calculated, and the results are shown in fig. 3. The damage of each part of the kidney tissue was evaluated by a score, and is shown in table 2.
