Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of anti-tumor drugs, and in particular to an adamantane derivative, an ER-targeting PROTAC degrader, a preparation method and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women worldwide, with high morbidity and mortality rates. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 1.8 million new cases of breast cancer are diagnosed each year, and approximately 660,000 women die from breast cancer each year. Breast cancer is treated with a variety of methods, including surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and targeted therapy. However, treatment success is affected by numerous factors, including the tumor's molecular subtype, patient age, hormone receptor status, and timely treatment. Among molecular subtypes of breast cancer, estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer is the most common subtype, accounting for approximately 70% of all breast cancer cases. Treatment of ER-positive breast cancer typically relies on hormonal therapy, which involves blocking the effects of estrogen with anti-estrogen drugs such as tamoxifen or anastrozole, thereby inhibiting tumor growth. However, hormonal therapy is not effective for all patients, and long-term treatment can lead to drug resistance, limiting its clinical application. Summary of the Invention

[0211] ARV-471 is a novel oral estrogen receptor (ER)-targeted proteolysis-targeted chimeric (PROTAC) protein degrader, jointly developed by Pfizer and Arvinas for the treatment of patients with estrogen receptor-positive / human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (ER+ / HER2-) breast cancer. ARV-471 is an orally bioavailable Protein degrader that specifically targets and degrades estrogen receptor (ER).

[0212] Example 7 The compounds of Examples 1-6 and Comparative Example 1 were used to perform an experiment on inhibiting the proliferation of human breast cancer cells MCF-7.

[0213] MCF-7 cells were plated in 384-well cell culture plates (6000 cells per well, 40 μl of charcoal-adsorbed serum-free phenol red medium) and incubated overnight at 37° C. in a 5% CO 2 atmosphere in a humidified incubator.

[0214] 0.2 μl of the compounds of Examples 1-6 and Comparative Example 1 (at a 200X concentration) was added to the wells of a cell culture plate (maximum final concentration was 10 μM, with a 3-fold serial dilution, "9+0" concentration, where "0" is DMSO solvent). MCF-7 cells were then incubated in the above environment for a further 24 hours.

[0215] MCF-7 cells were fixed with 40 μl / well of 8% paraformaldehyde (PFA: final concentration 4%) for 20 minutes at room temperature. The plates were then washed twice with PSB and permeabilized with pre-chilled methanol for 10 minutes. MCF-7 cells were then blocked with Odessery blocking buffer for 1 hour.

[0216] A cocktail of primary antibodies for the detection of ERα (rabbit monoclonal, 1:1000, Cell Signaling Technology catalog #8644) and the housekeeping protein GAPDH (mouse monoclonal, 1:2000, Cell Signaling Technology catalog #97166S) was added and MCF-7 cells were incubated overnight at 4°C.

[0217] Then, MCF-7 cells were washed three times with TBST at room temperature and then incubated with anti-rabbit and anti-mouse fluorescently labeled secondary antibodies (LI-COR) in LI-COR blocking buffer for one hour at room temperature. After washing three times with TBST, the buffer was removed and The plate was read at 700 nm and 800 nm on an infrared imaging system (LI-COR). Using commercial software (ImageStudio™; LI-COR, Lincoln, NE), the staining intensity of ERα and housekeeping proteins in each well was quantified and exported for analysis. For each data point, ERα intensity was normalized to housekeeping protein intensity, and for each ER-targeting PROTAC degrader, all normalized intensity values ​​were normalized to vehicle control.

[0221]

[0222]

[0223] Experimental steps of Example 7:

[0224] 1) MCF-7 cells (human breast cancer cells) were seeded into 384-well cell culture plates (Coring #356663) at a density of 6000 cells / well / 40 μL using phenol red-free DMEM complete medium (phenol red-free DMEM + 10% Charcoal-FBS + 1% P / S) and incubated at 37°C, 5% CO2 to adhere overnight.

[0225] 2) Use DMSO solvent to dilute the compound in a 3-fold gradient; a total of "9+0" concentrations.

[0226] 3) Use Echo 550 to dispense 200 nL of the compound diluted in step 2) into the cell culture plate (final DMSO concentration: 0.5%) and place the plate in a 37° C., 5% CO 2 incubator for further culturing for 24 hours.

[0227] 4) Add 40 uL / well of 8% paraformaldehyde and incubate at room temperature for 20 minutes.

[0228] 5) After removing the paraformaldehyde, wash the plate twice with PBS, add 40 uL / well of cold methanol (HPLC grade) and incubate at room temperature for 10 minutes.

[0229] 6) Methanol was removed, and the plate was washed once with PBS. 20 μL / well of Odessey blocking buffer was added, and the plate was incubated at room temperature for 1 hour.

[0230] 7) Remove Odessery blocking buffer and add 20uL / well primary (estrogen receptor α

[0231] A mixture of rabbit monoclonal antibody (D8H8) and mouse monoclonal antibody (GAPDH) (D4C6R) was added and incubated at 4°C overnight.

[0232] 8) Remove the primary antibody, wash three times with PBS + 0.05% Tween-20, add 20 uL / well of secondary antibody mixture (goat anti-rabbit 800CW antibody and goat anti-mouse 680RD antibody), and incubate at room temperature in the dark for 1 hour.

[0233] 9) Remove the secondary antibody, wash three times with PBS + 0.05% Tween-20, and finally centrifuge the cell culture plate upside down at 1000 rpm for 1 minute. Then, read the fluorescence signal using Odyssey CLx (infrared fluorescence scanning imaging system).

[0234] The calculation formula is: ERαlevel=100-(High-sample)(High-Low)*100. The relationship between the level percentage of the estrogen receptor α subtype of the compounds of Examples 1-6 and Comparative Example 1 and the concentration of the compounds is plotted. Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 ;

[0235] Wherein, High = average of multiple DMSO wells (800 / 700 ratio); Low = average of multiple 100 nM Fulvestrant wells (800 / 700 ratio); and the ratio of 800 / 700 is Relative Signal = Signal Value (total channel 800) / Signal Value (total channel 700).

[0236] DC50 was then calculated by fitting the logarithm of inhibition rate and compound concentration to a nonlinear regression (dose response - slope of variable) using XLFIT, see Table 4.

[0240] Example 8 Cytochrome P450 inhibition study

[0241] The compounds of Example 1, Example 4, Example 5, Example 6 and Comparative Example 1 were subjected to drug metabolizing enzyme phenotype identification (CYP inhibition test).

[0242] Drug-metabolizing enzyme phenotyping (CYP inhibition testing) tests compounds for their inhibitory effects on cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes. CYP450 is a class of enzymes found in the liver (and other parts of the body) that metabolizes and breaks down many drugs and xenobiotics. The CYP450 enzymes involved in drug metabolism primarily belong to the CYP1, CYP2, and CYP3 families. CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4 / 5 are the primary drug-metabolizing enzymes. Drug-metabolizing enzyme phenotyping primarily investigates the type, number, and relative contribution of metabolizing enzymes involved in drug clearance. If a drug is a strong inhibitor or inducer of a CYP enzyme, it may interact with other drugs metabolized by the same CYP enzyme, resulting in reduced efficacy or an increased risk of adverse reactions. Therefore, during the drug design stage, chemists usually modify the structure of drug molecules to reduce interactions with CYP enzymes, thereby reducing the risk of drug interactions.

[0243] This study used an in vitro assay system to evaluate the effects of test compounds on the activities of seven cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzymes (CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4) in human liver microsomes. Specific probe substrates for each CYP450 isoenzyme were incubated with human liver microsomes and various concentrations of the test compound (10 μM, 3.33 μM, 1.11 μM, 0.37 μM, 0.123 μM, 0.041 μM, 0.0137 μM, and 0 μM). The reaction was initiated by the addition of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH). Following the reaction, samples were processed and metabolites generated from the probe substrates were quantified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS / MS).

[0247]

[0248] Example 8 Experimental steps:

[0249] Step (1) preparing a mixed solution of the compound and human liver microsomes (the concentrations of the compound and human liver microsomes are both twice the final concentration).

[0250] Step (2) 0.2 mg / mL human liver microsome (HLM) solution: Take 200 μL of 20 mg / mL human liver microsome stock solution and add it to 19.8 mL of buffer.

[0251] Step (3) Dissolve 16 μL of 10 mM test compound or positive inhibitor stock solution in 24 μL of organic solvent, and then dilute it in a 1:2 gradient (the concentration is 400 times the final concentration): 4 mM, 1.33 mM, 0.444 mM, 0.148 mM, 0.0494 mM, 0.0165 mM, 0.00549 mM, 0 mM.

[0252] Step (4) Mixed solution with human liver microsomes: 199 μL of 0.2 mg / mL HLM was added to the wells of a 96-well plate, and 1 μL of a 400-fold solution of the test compound or positive inhibitor was added.

[0253] Table 7: Concentration of the mixed solution of positive control inhibitor and human liver microsomes

[0254]

[0255] Step (5) prepare substrate solution (the prepared concentration is 4 times the final concentration).

[0256] Table 8: Substrate solution preparation

[0257]

[0258]

[0259] Step (6) The substrate solution prepared in step (5) is then dispensed into a 96-well reaction plate: 30 μL of the mixed solution of the compound and human liver microsomes is dispensed into a 96-well plate, and then 15 μL of the substrate solution is added.

[0260] Step (7): Preheat the solution obtained in step (6) and 8 mM NADPH solution at 37°C for 10 minutes.

[0261] Step (8): Add 15 μL of preheated NADPH solution to the reaction plate obtained in step (6), mix well, and start the reaction.

[0262] Step (9): Incubate the reaction plate at 37°C for 5 minutes for CYP3A4; 10 minutes for CYP1A2, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9, and 2D6; and 20 minutes for CYP2C19. At the end of the reaction, add 120 μL of acetonitrile containing the internal standard to terminate the reaction.

[0263] Table 9: Experimental data of drug metabolizing enzyme phenotype identification (CYP inhibition experiment) of Example 1, Example 4, Example 5, Example 6 and Comparative Example 1

[0264] As can be seen from Table 9 above, the compounds provided in Example 1 of the present application have an effect on all CYP450 enzymes.

[0265]

[0266] IC50>10μM; Examples 4, 5, and 6 showed IC50>10μM for most CYP450 enzymes, indicating that the compounds of Examples 1, 4, 5, and 6 have essentially no inhibitory effect on CYP450 enzymes. Therefore, the metabolic processes of the compounds of the present application involve a large number of metabolic enzymes and metabolic pathways, making potential drug-drug interactions less likely to occur, reducing treatment deviations between patients, and demonstrating good safety and reliability.

[0267] Example 9 The above-mentioned Example 1, Example 4, Example 5, Example 6 and Comparative Example 1 were subjected to hERG safety assessment test. The results are shown in Table 10.

[0268] The hERG safety assessment test is a specific safety assessment experiment. It is used to detect the potential effects of drugs on the potassium channel encoded by the human Ether-a-go-go-Related Gene (hERG). The protein encoded by the hERG gene is a channel for the cardiac rapid delayed rectifier potassium current (IKr) and is crucial for the electrophysiological function of the heart. If a drug blocks the hERG channel, it may cause QT interval prolongation, which may in turn cause serious arrhythmias such as torsade de pointes (TdP) or even sudden death. The IC50 in hERG represents the concentration of the drug required to inhibit the hERG channel by 50%. It can predict the cardiac safety risks that may be caused by the drug.

[0269] In safety assessments during drug development, a higher IC50 value indicates that the drug poses less risk to cardiac safety.

[0278] 2) Rinse the cells twice with 6 mL of DPBS-2 mM EDTA at room temperature and discard the solution with a 10 ml plastic pipette.

[0279] 3) Add 2 mL of TrypLE TM Express, gently shake the container to completely cover the cell layer.

[0280] 4) Remove half of the solution, leaving only a thin film covering the cells.

[0281] 5) Incubate at 37°C for 5-7 minutes. Carefully check when the cells begin to float.

[0282] 6) Prepare 10 ml of external standard solution in a centrifuge tube and incubate the culture flask in a refrigerator (4-8°C) for 5 minutes.

[0287] 9.3 Current Records of SyncroPatch 384i / 384

[0288] 1) Install and clean the head.

[0289] 2) Fill the chip with external and internal solutions. The junction potential is compensated.

[0290] 3) Add cells to the chip.

[0291] 4) Add seal enhancer solution to seal the cells and set the holding potential to -90 mV.

[0292] 5) Wash cells four times with external solution.

[0293] 6) 15 μM Escin in the internal solution will be permeated into the cells and acquire a whole-cell configuration.

[0294] 7) Simulation C slow and the number C slow Compensate for cell capacitance.

[0295] 8) Set the holding potential to -90 mV for 500 ms; record the current at 500 Hz and filter the current at 3 kHz. Measure the leakage current at -90 mV.

[0296] 9) Induce hERG current by depolarizing the membrane to +30 mV for 4.8 seconds, then bring the voltage back to -50 mV for 5.2 seconds to eliminate inactivation and measure the inactivation tail current. The sampling interval is 15 seconds. The maximum magnitude of the tail current will be used to determine the hERG current amplitude.

[0297] 10) Record the current for 120 seconds to assess current stability. Only stable cells with recording parameters that pass the acceptance criteria should be used for perfusion with the working solution.

[0298] 11) First, a blank vector was applied to the cells to create a baseline. After the hERG current had stabilized for at least 5 minutes, the test article was perfused. In the presence of the test compound, the hERG current was recorded for no less than 5 minutes at a single working concentration to reach steady state, and then 5 scans were captured. If steady state was not reached within 10 minutes, the steady-state value was replaced by the average peak current of the last 5 scans. The positive control cisapride was used in the experiment to ensure good performance of the cells and the operation as an integral part of the method validation. The hERG current inhibition in the presence of 5 concentrations of the test article was examined in 2 independent experiments (n=2) to determine the IC 50 .

[0299] 9.4 Data Acceptance Criteria

[0300] The following criteria will be used to determine data acceptability:

[0301] (1) Initial seal resistance is greater than 100 megohms (MΩ). This is the resistance formed between the cell membrane and the electrode during electrophysiological experiments. A high resistance value indicates a good seal quality, which can reduce noise and improve signal quality.

[0302] (2) Access resistance is less than 25 megohms. This refers to the resistance between the cell membrane and the electrode. Lower access resistance helps obtain clearer signals.

[0303] (3) At any given moment, the stable leak current is less than 50% of the control peak tail current. Leakage current refers to the current flowing through the cell membrane in the absence of a voltage change, while the control peak tail current refers to the current measured after a specific voltage pulse. This criterion ensures that leakage current does not significantly affect the experimental results.

[0304] (4) The hERG peak tail current amplitude is much larger than the prepulse current amplitude, and the absolute amplitude of the peak tail current is at least greater than 300 picoamperes (pA). This ensures that the measured current is mainly the hERG channel current, rather than other currents.

[0305] (5) The peak tail current amplitude should not decrease significantly by more than 30%. This means that during the experiment, the current amplitude should not decrease by more than 30%, which can exclude current changes caused by cell fatigue or other nonspecific factors.

[0306] The above standards are intended to ensure the accuracy and reproducibility of experiments and to evaluate the potential effects of drugs or compounds on hERG channels.

[0307] 9.5 Data Analysis:

[0308] Data meeting the above hERG current quality criteria will be further analyzed according to the following steps:

[0309] 1) The inhibition rate of the compound is calculated using the following formula. To plot the relationship between the inhibition rate of the compound and the compound concentration, please refer to Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 12 .

[0310]

[0311] Note: Use Datacontrol 384 software to extract the peak current from the raw data.

[0312] inhibition).

[0313] 2) Dose-response curves of the compounds of Example 1, Example 4, Example 5, Example 6, and Comparative Example 1 and the relationship between hERG inhibition rate and test compound concentration were plotted using Graphpad Prism 8.0 (see Table 10), and the data were fitted to a sigmoidal dose-response curve with a variable slope.

[0314] 9.6 Data Interpretation Standards

[0315] A generally accepted ranking system that indicates the potency of a test sample to inhibit the hERG channel is as follows:

[0316] Low: IC50>10μM;

[0317] Moderate: 1μM <IC50<10μM;

[0318] High: IC50<1μM

[0319] Table 10: hERG detection data of Example 1, Example 4, Example 5, Example 6 and Comparative Example 1

[0320] Example hERG IC50 (μM) Example 1 >30 Example 4 >30 Example 5 >30 Example 6 23.69 Comparative Example 1 >30

[0321] Please refer to Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 12 As shown in Table 10, the IC50 values ​​of the compounds of Examples 1, 4, 5, and 6 are all greater than 10 μM, indicating that the compounds of Examples 1, 4, 5, and 6 have no inhibitory effect on hERG, pose little risk to cardiac safety, and are very safe.

[0322] In summary, the compounds provided in this application include a ligand that specifically binds to a target protein (ie, an estrogen receptor), a ligand that recruits an E3 ubiquitin ligase, and a chemical chain linker that connects the two parts. The compounds provided in this application can bring the estrogen receptor closer to the E3 ubiquitin ligase, mark the estrogen receptor through the ubiquitination process, and then degrade it through the 26S proteasome pathway, thereby reducing the concentration of the estrogen receptor in the cell and regulating biological processes related to it. The compounds provided in this application exhibit significant anti-tumor activity through the PROTAC mechanism; they inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells by degrading Erα protein in the breast cancer MCF-7 cell line, providing a new strategy for the treatment of breast cancer.

[0323] Compared to traditional inhibitors, the ER-targeted PROTAC degraders provided in this application do not need to bind to the active site of the target protein, thus overcoming drug resistance caused by mutations. They also present a lower risk to cardiac safety and have a very good safety profile.

[0324] In addition, the metabolic process of the compound of the present application involves more metabolic enzymes and more metabolic pathways, which makes it difficult for potential drug-drug interactions to occur, reduces treatment deviations between patients, and has good safety and high reliability.

[0325] Each compound of the present application retains only one hydroxyl group, which effectively ensures the activity of the compound, facilitates the connection of the hydroxyl group to the ER protein, and further ensures the anti-tumor efficacy of the compound. On the contrary, if both hydroxyl groups are connected to the R2 group through a linker, the compound molecule will be too large, the space for interaction between the protein and the compound will be too crowded, which is not conducive to the interaction between the protein and the compound, and may also cause E3 ligase (E3 ubiquitin ligase) to collide at the other end, which will also cause the compound to be inactivated, thereby having no anti-tumor efficacy.

Although the invention has been disclosed as a preferred embodiment as above, it is not intended to limit the invention. Any technician familiar with the profession can make some changes or modifications to equivalent embodiments of the technical contents disclosed above without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the invention.
