    [0080] ##STR00014##

    [0081] 6-methylbenzo[d]thiazol-2-amine (5 g, 30.5 mmol) was suspended in a solution of KOH (25 g, 44.6 mmol) in water (50 mL) and heated to reflux overnight. The reaction was monitored through thin-layer chromatography (TLC). After the reaction was finished, the solution was cooled to ambient temperature and had a pH adjusted to 6 with acetic acid. The solution was filtered, and a thick precipitate was collected and rinsed with water. A residue was partitioned between dichloromethane and water and extracted. An organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous Na.sub.2SO.sub.4 and concentrated in vacuum to obtain a target compound as a yellow solid (3.4 g with a yield of 80%). .sup.1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d.sub.6) δ 6.91 (dd, J=8.2, 1.7 Hz, 1H), 6.81 (d, J=1.4 Hz, 1H), 6.64 (d, J=8.2 Hz, 1H), 5.21 (s, 2H), 2.05 (s, 3H).

    [0082] ##STR00015##

    [0083] Polyphosphoric acid (20 g) was added to a mixture of 2-amino-5-methylbenzenethiol (2.03 g, 14.58 mmol) and 4-aminobenzoic acid (1.99 g, 14.51 mmol) and heated for 4 h at 220° C. The reaction was monitored through the TLC. After the reaction was finished, the reaction mixture was cooled to ambient temperature, slowly poured into an ice-cold aqueous solution of sodium carbonate (10% w/v) and stirred until a gas ceased to escape. The solution was filtered, and a precipitate was collected and washed with water. A residue was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water and extracted. An organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuum to obtain a crude product. The crude product was purified through silica gel column chromatography (PE:EA=4:1, v/v) to obtain a target compound as a brown solid (3.14 g with a yield of 90%). .sup.1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d.sub.6) δ 7.80 (s, 1H), 7.77 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 7.72 (d, J=8.6 Hz, 2H), 7.26 (dd, J=8.3, 1.1 Hz, 1H), 6.65 (d, J=8.6 Hz, 2H), 5.85 (s, 2H), 2.42 (s, 3H).

Three duplicate wells were set for each sample, and IC.sub.50 values (half maximal inhibitory concentrations) were calculated by software.

    [0306] Experimental results: the activity data of RORγ and the homologous proteins thereof in Examples 35, 54, 57, 67, 68 and 74 of the present application in the luciferase experiment are shown in Table 3.

    [0307] The experimental results indicate that the compounds provided by the present application have specific selectivity for RORγ and, in particular, the compounds in Examples 35, 54, 57, 67, 68 and 74 exhibit more excellent selectivity for RORγ protein relative to proteins of other nuclear receptors.

    Test Example 3 Test for Inhibitory Effects on Proliferation of Cell Lines of AR-Positive Prostate Cancer

    [0308] In the present test example, inhibitory effects of the compounds in Examples 35, 54, 67, 68 and 74 on proliferation of AR-positive prostate cancer cell lines were evaluated.

    [0309] Experimental materials: a fluorescence signal detection instrument EnSpire Alpha 2390 Multimode Plate Reader (manufactured by PerkinElmer), a 384-well clear-bottom microplate, a Cell-Titer GLO Luminescence Reagent, prostate cancer cell lines LNCaP, C4-2B and 22Rv1, a medium and fetal bovine serum required for cell culture, and positive drugs: Enzalutamide and SR2211.

    [0310] Experimental method: 20 μL of a medium containing 500 to 1000 cells to be detected (the actual number of cells was related to cell cycle and cell volume) was plated into each well of the 384-well clear-bottom microplate. After 12 hours, 10 μL of a culture medium containing the compound (the compound had a concentration of 5-100 nM) was added to each well. After incubation with the compound for 72-96 h, the Cell-Titer GLO Reagent was added to each well, and the plate was shaken for 20 min to lyse the cells. After incubation for 10 min, the cells were centrifuged for 1 min, and luminescence 384 signal values were measured. An inhibition curve was fitted by GraphPad Prism software, and IC.sub.50 was calculated.

    [0311] Experimental results: the antiproliferative activity of the compounds in Examples 35, 54, 67, 68 and 74 against the AR-positive prostate cancer cell lines is shown in Table 4.

    TABLE-US-00004 TABLE 4 Cell Viability IC.sub.50 (μM).sup.a Cmpd LNCaP C4-2B 22Rv1 Enzalutamide 42.37 ± 2.37  23.56 ± 0.61  36.66 ± 4.21 SR2211 6.14 ± 0.04 5.38 ± 0.27 13.34 ± 1.22 Example 35 9.22 ± 0.02 5.76 ± 0.05 14.36 ± 0.46 Example 54 4.82 ± 1.08 4.40 ± 0.18 11.10 ± 0.72 Example 67 8.07 ± 0.66 6.20 ± 0.60  4.62 ± 0.91 Example 68 6.33 ± 0.47 6.82 ± 0.72  8.27 ± 0.75 Example 74 5.20 ± 0.14 4.19 ± 0.34 10.36 ± 1.01

    [0312] As can be seen from the results in Table 4, the compounds provided by the present application may have IC.sub.50 values much lower than the currently marketed drug Enzalutamide and have better inhibitory effects on the proliferation of the prostate cancer cells.

    Test Example 4 Pharmacokinetic Evaluations

    [0313] In the present test example, pharmacokinetic evaluations on Examples 67 and 68 were carried out.

    [0314] Experimental materials: the pharmacokinetic analyses were carried out by Shanghai Medicilon Corporation. Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were provided by Shanghai Super-B&K Laboratory Animal Corp., Ltd.

    [0315] Experimental method: the compound was dissolved in a solution containing 5% dimethylacetamide (DMA), 10% Solutol and 85% Saline as a stock solution. The stock solution was orally administered to three SD rats at a dose of 25 mg/kg and administered to three SD rats through intravenous injection at a single dose of 5 mg/kg. Blood was collected from jugular veins before the oral administration and 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 24 hours after the oral administration. Blood was collected from jugular veins before the intravenous injection and 0.083, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 24 hours after the intravenous injection. About 200 μL of the blood samples were collected into heparinized tubes and then immediately centrifuged at 8000 r/min for 6 minutes to obtain blood plasma. The obtained blood plasma was storaged at −80° C. until analysis.

    [0316] Experimental results: the pharmacokinetic data in Examples 67 and 68 are shown in Table 5.

    [0317] The experimental results indicate that the compounds provided by the present application have good pharmacokinetic properties.

    Test Example 5 In Vivo Pharmacodynamic Study of 22Rv1 Xenograft Mouse Models

    [0318] Experimental purpose: a xenograft mouse experiment was used for verifying inhibitory effects of the compounds of the present application on tumors in vivo.

    [0319] Experimental methods: three-week-old male mice (strain: NOD/MrkBomTac-Prkdc.sup.scid) were purchased from Beijing Vital River Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd and used for xenograft tumor establishment. 22Rv1 tumor cells were subcutaneously inoculated on a side of a lower abdomen of each mouse, and each mouse was injected with 3×10.sup.6 cells. The cells were suspended in 100 μL of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and Matrigel (at a ratio of 1:1). When the tumor volumes reached about 100 mm.sup.3, the mice were randomly divided into groups (n=6-7 per group) and then administered through oral gavage. The compound in Example 68 was dissolved in an administration vehicle containing 15% polyoxyethylene ether (35) castor oil (Cremophor EL), Calbiochem, 82.5% PBS and 2.5% DMSO and administered five days a week for three continuous weeks. The length (L) and width (W) of the tumor mass were measured by a caliper, and the volume was expressed in mm.sup.3 and calculated according to the following formula: V=π/6×(L×W.sup.2). TGI was calculated according to the following formula: TGI=[1−(T−T.sub.0)/(C−C.sub.0)]×100, where T denoted a mean tumor volume on a specific day of the experiment and T.sub.0 denoted a mean tumor volume at the beginning of the treatment; similarly, C and C.sub.0 denoted a mean tumor volume on a specific day of the experiment and a mean tumor volume of a blank group at the beginning of the treatment, respectively.

    [0320] In Test Example 5, mouse xenograft tumor models were used for the test in the experiment. 22Rv1 prostate cancer cell xenograft mouse models were selected, the compound in Example 68 was orally administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg or 40 mg/kg five days a week for three weeks, and variations of tumor volumes in mice were observed. Data represented mean tumor volume standard deviation (n=6-7 per group) in each treatment group.

    [0321] The results of the inhibitory effects of the compound in Example 68 on the tumors in the 22Rv1 mouse xenograft models are shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. FIG. 1 shows that the compound in Example 68 can significantly inhibit the tumors from growing in the mice at a dose of 10 mg/kg (TGI=83%). The compound at a dose of 40 mg/kg can not only significantly inhibit the tumors from growing in the mice but also sustainably and completely eliminate the tumors for a long time (TGI=109%). In addition, FIG. 2 shows that the mice had no apparent variations in weight and behaved normally in the case where the compound in Example 68 was administered at all doses. These results indicate that the compound in Example 68 has a significant inhibitory effect on the tumor growth in vivo on the 22Rv1 mouse xenograft models without any apparent toxic effect.

    [0322] These compounds effectively bind to and inhibit the transcription of RORγ receptor proteins, thereby inhibiting a downstream signaling pathway and achieving effects such as inhibition of tumor growth and amelioration of inflammation. Example 68 specifically exhibits the inhibitory effect of the compound on the prostate tumor growth in vivo. Available and reported evidences also suggest that this type of compound has a potential to treat diseases such as a cancer, a cell proliferative disorder, an inflammatory disease and an autoimmune disease, sepsis and a viral infection.
