The calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) plays an important role in sensing extracellular calcium ions and regulating parathyroid hormone secretion by parathyroid gland cells, and the receptor is a suitable target for the treatment of hyperparathyroidism. Cinacalcet hydrochloride is a representative CaSR agonist which widely used for the hyperparathyroidism. However, it has several issues to clinical use, such as nausea/vomiting and strong inhibition of CYP2D6. We tried to improve these issues of cinacalcet for a new pharmaceutical agent as a preferable CaSR agonist. Optimization from cinacalcet resulted in the identification of pyrrolidine compounds and successfully led to the discovery of evocalcet as an oral allosteric CaSR agonist. Evocalcet, which exhibited highly favorable profiles such as CaSR agonistic activity and good DMPK profiles, will provide a novel therapeutic option for secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Page/Page column 35-36, (2010/11/25)
The present invention relates to an arylalkylamine compound represented by the following formula [I] or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a process for preparing the same, and use of the above-mentioned compound as an activating compound (CaSR agonist) of a Ca sensiing receptor, a pharmaceutical composition containing the above-mentioned compound as an effective ingredient, etc. The symbols in the formula represent the following meanings: Ar: optionally substituted aryl or optionally substituted heteroaryl here, the cyclic portion of the heteroaryl is bicyclic heterocyclic ring in which 5- to 6-membered monocyclic heterocyclic ring containing 1 or 2 hetero atom(s) and benzene ring are fused; R 1 : a group selected from the group consisting of optionally substituted cyclic hydrocarbon group, and optionally substituted heterocyclic group; n: an integer of 1 to 3; X: single bonding arm, -CH 2 -, -CO- , - (CH 2 ) m -CO- , -CH (R 2 ) -CO-, - (CH 2 ) p -Y-(C(R 3 ) (R 4 )) q -CO-, -NH-CO- or -N(R 5 ) -CO-; in the above-mentioned respective definitions of the X, the bonding arm described at the left end represents a bond with R 1 ; m is an integer of 1 to 3; p is an integer of 0 to 2; q is an integer of 0 to 2; Y: -O- or -SO 2 -; R 2 : phenyl or lower alkyl; R 3 , R 4 : each independently represents hydrogen atom or lower alkyl; R 5 : lower alkyl; provided that the ring portion of the group represented by R 1 is neither naphthylidine nor partially saturated group thereof, and, when X is -CH 2 - or -CO-, R 1 is not naphthyl.
