Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical technology, and in particular to covalent organic framework materials for loading boron drug compounds, their preparation methods, and applications. Background Technology
[0002] Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a type of radiotherapy that selectively kills tumor cells. After a boron delivery agent with a specific affinity for tumor cells enters the body, it selectively accumulates within the tumor cells. (The text then repeats the description of a non-radioactive isotope.) 10 When boron (B) captures a low-energy thermal neutron (0.025 eV), it undergoes nuclear fission to produce alpha particles (4He) and recoil lithium-7 nuclei (7Li). This high linear energy transfer kills tumor cells. The alpha particle's path length (5–9 μm, approximately the diameter of a cell) is very short, limiting its destructive effect to boron-containing cells and not affecting adjacent normal cells, thus minimizing damage to surrounding tumor tissues. Therefore, boron-neutral radiotherapy (BNCT) is a binary, cellular-scale, highly targeted radiotherapy with high energy density, making it one of the best methods for achieving precise radiotherapy.
[0003] From a clinical treatment perspective, due to the limitations of existing boron drug delivery technologies, the efficacy of BNCT treatment is not ideal, and many patients fail to achieve effective tumor control. Existing anticancer drug delivery systems have certain shortcomings: First, traditional carriers have low drug loading efficiency; for example, doxorubicin liposomes only load 15-25% of the drug, and drug leakage easily leads to systemic toxicity. COF, through the dual effects of π-π stacking and pore adsorption, increases the drug loading to 42.7%. While mesoporous silica has a high specific surface area (1000 m² / g), its rigid pores cause delayed drug release, resulting in a bortezomib loading rate of less than 20%. PLGA-PEG polymer micelle systems can achieve a loading capacity of up to 30% for hydrophobic boron drugs, but the in vivo circulation time is short (t1 / 2 < 6 h). Second, there are limitations in targeted modification technology. For example, while trastuzumab-modified nanoparticles can target HER2-positive cells, the large molecular weight of the antibody (~150 kDa) results in a carrier size exceeding 200 nm, significantly reducing tumor penetration ability (Nat. Biotechnol. 2020, 38, 420-432). Amide bond linkages can disrupt COF crystallinity, leading to a decrease in specific surface area of over 50% (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2021, 143, 12129-12137). Third, there is insufficient precision in release control. For instance, the polyacrylic acid (PAA) modified system has a release rate of 65% at pH 5.5, but 40% of the drug is still released prematurely at pH 6.8. In addition, the release efficiency of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) responsive carriers in tumor tissue is only 50-60%.
[0004] Despite this, researchers have offered some promising research ideas: A team at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Germany developed an upconversion nanoparticle-covalent organic framework (UCNP-COF) core-shell microrobot (Adv. Mater. 2021, 202418425). This microrobot utilizes COF to absorb upconversion luminescence (UCL) and convert it into thermoelastic vibrations, generating high-contrast photoacoustic signals. Further, by sputtering a nickel-gold layer, the UCNP-COF microrobot is endowed with a magnetically controlled Janus structure, enabling real-time navigation in cerebral blood vessels with blood flow velocities up to 50 mm / s. Combining photoacoustic imaging and magnetic navigation, this platform is the first to integrate diagnostic, therapeutic, and manipulative functions into a single particle, overcoming the functional limitations of traditional nanocarriers. Teams from Southwest Medical University and Southern Medical University reported a hypoxia-responsive COF that in situ encapsulates the chemotherapy drug gambogeylic acid (GA).
[0005] However, during the experiments conducted by the inventors of this application on the relevant prior art, it was discovered that the above-mentioned technology still has the problem of low delivery efficiency of BNCT boron drug. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a method for preparing a covalent organic framework material loaded with boron drug compounds, comprising the following steps:
[0014] Folic acid was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide, and EDC / NHS was added and activated at room temperature for 2–5 h to obtain an activation solution. The amino-functionalized COF was dispersed in the activation solution and reacted at 55–65 °C for 16–48 h under nitrogen protection. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was centrifuged at 9000–12000 rpm for 3–6 min, washed 3–5 times by alternating centrifugation with DMF / ethanol, and dried under vacuum at 50–60 °C to obtain FA-COF.
[0015] Bortezomib was dissolved in PBS buffer, FA-COF was added, and the mixture was soaked for 36–60 h under ultrasonic assistance. The boron-loaded FA-COF material was then separated by centrifugation or filtration, washed with deionized water, and then vacuum dried at 40–60 °C for 6–12 h to obtain the boron-loaded and dried FA-COF carrier, which was stored in the dark.
[0016] Furthermore, the preparation method of the amino-functionalized COF is as follows:
[0017] Weigh 2,4,6-tricarboxymethyl phloroglucinol and 2,5-diaminoterephthalic acid separately, add them to a mixed solvent of acetonitrile / acetic acid and stir until homogeneous. Then keep the mixture at 110-130 °C for 12-72 h. After cooling to room temperature, collect the amino-functionalized COF and centrifuge at 9000-12000 rpm for 3-6 min. Wash the COF with ethanol and distilled water alternately 3-5 times for later use.
[0018] Furthermore, the molar ratio of 2,4,6-tricarboxymethyl phloroglucinol and 2,5-diaminoterephthalic acid is 2:3.
[0019] Furthermore, in the activation solution, the molar ratio of folic acid to dimethyl sulfoxide is 1:11.
[0020] Furthermore, the FA-COF carrier is stored at 3–5 °C in the dark.

[0022] One or more technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages:
[0023] The covalent organic framework material for loading boron drug compounds of this invention achieves ultra-high drug loading (42.7%) by matching the pore size of the triazine-based COF to the size of the boron drug molecule, combining the topological design of the COF (AA stacking mode) with drug molecular dynamics simulation. Furthermore, by using thioether bonds to connect folic acid molecules, it achieves a FA surface coverage of >85% while maintaining the crystallinity of the COF. This invention is the first to achieve a three-in-one design of "structure-adaptive drug loading - chemically stable targeting - precise environmental release," providing a highly efficient drug delivery platform for advanced therapies such as boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), and promoting the leap from "extensive chemotherapy" to "molecular-level precise regulation" in anticancer drug development.
