Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of biomedicine, and in particular to a benzazepine-2-one compound, a preparation method and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men worldwide. Drug resistance in the castration-resistant prostate (CRPC) stage presents a therapeutic bottleneck. Research has shown that ubiquitin-specific protease 16 (USP16) specifically removes the ubiquitination modification of c-Myc, inhibiting its proteasomal degradation and thereby stabilizing c-Myc expression. As a core oncogenic factor, c-Myc activates cell cycle genes (such as Cyclin D1 and CDK4), driving cancer cell proliferation and invasion. Inhibiting USP16 significantly reduces c-Myc levels and inhibits tumor growth in CRPC cell lines and xenograft models. Clinical analyses have shown that USP16 is highly expressed in prostate cancer tissues and positively correlates with tumor malignancy (Gleason score), suggesting its potential as a prognostic marker and therapeutic target.
[0003] While existing broad-spectrum USP inhibitors (such as YM155) can inhibit USP16 activity, their lack of selectivity can lead to off-target effects (such as abnormal DNA damage and immune imbalance), limiting their clinical application. Developing highly selective USP16 inhibitors is crucial. Such drugs can be used alone to treat CRPC or in combination with second-generation AR antagonists (such as enzalutamide) to enhance anticancer efficacy by synergistically blocking AR signaling and the c-Myc pathway. Furthermore, USP16 inhibitors also have potential for treating solid tumors such as liver cancer and colon cancer, where USP16 is abnormally activated.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to develop new USP16 selective inhibitors. Summary of the Invention

[0080] Example 12: Benzazepin-2-one compounds inhibit USPs kinases
[0081] Deubiquitinase (DUB) activity was monitored by a fluorometric assay using ubiquitin-rhodamine 110 (Ub-Rho110, Catalog # M3022, UBP Bio) in a buffer containing 50 mM HEPES (pH 8.0), 150 mM NaCl, 0.5 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT, and 0.1 mg / mL bovine serum albumin (BSA). The assay procedure is briefly as follows: the benzazepine-2-one compounds represented by Formulas 3a to 3k were first diluted to 10 μM, followed by the addition of a 10 nM deubiquitinase. After brief mixing, the mixture was placed in a 200 μL reaction volume and incubated at room temperature for 1 hour. After the addition of 200 nM Ub-Rho110, the final fluorescence signal (excitation wavelength: 485 nm, emission wavelength: 535 nm) was obtained using a TECAN SPARK multifunctional microplate reader. The inhibition rate of the benzazepine-2-one compound on the enzyme activity was calculated based on the fluorescence signal. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0087] The in vitro antiproliferative activity of the benzazepine-2-one compounds represented by Formula 3d, Formula 3i, and Formula 3j against prostate cancer cell lines PC-3 and DU145 was evaluated using a CCK-8 assay. Using UBD1031 as a positive control, a 10-μM maximum concentration was established, followed by a three-fold serial dilution cycle, with a minimum concentration of 0 μM, for a total of 10 concentrations. Logarithmically growing PC-3 and DU145 cells were resuspended and counted, and the concentration was adjusted to 5×10 3 -1×10 4 Cells / mL were added to a 96-well plate: 100 μL of cell suspension was added to each well to a cell density of 500-1000 cells / well (three replicates were set). The plate was placed in an incubator and incubated for 24 hours before adding the prepared drug (1-1000 nM) and incubating for 72 hours. CCK-8 working solution was added and incubated for another 3 hours. The plate was immediately placed in a microplate reader for reading. Data were processed using GraphPad Prism 9 to calculate the IC 50 As shown in Table 2, the benzazepine-2-one compounds represented by Formula 3d, Formula 3i and Formula 3j all have excellent in vitro anti-proliferation activity against prostate cancer cells.

[0091] Example 14: Benzazepine-2-one compounds inhibit animal tumors
[0092] To evaluate the anti-tumor activity of the active compounds in vivo, animal experiments were conducted using two prostate cancer cell xenograft models (PC-3 and DU145) in BALB / c mice. Specifically, a subcutaneous tumor-bearing mouse model was established to evaluate the anti-tumor effects of the benzazepin-2-one compounds represented by Formula 3d, 3i, and 3j in BALB / c mice. PC-3 and DU145 cells were cultured in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator. All mice were housed under standard specific pathogen-free (SPF) conditions. BALB / c mice aged 6-8 weeks were subcutaneously injected with PC-3 and DU145 cells. Mice were examined daily to assess tumor progression. When tumors reached a certain size, mice were randomly divided into a control group and a treatment group, with 5 mice in each group. The treatment group received an intraperitoneal injection of 50 mpk of the benzazepin-2-one compound dissolved in 100 µL of 5% DMSO and 95% saline. Tumor diameter was measured using a vernier caliper and mouse weight was recorded daily. Tumor tissue was removed on day 14 and the tumor inhibition effect of the compound was evaluated by the change in tumor volume. The results are shown in Table 3 and Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown in , the benzazepine-2-one compounds represented by Formula 3d, Formula 3i and Formula 3j all have excellent in vivo anti-prostate tumor proliferation activity.
