Description

Composition for the prevention or treatment of malignant tumors

[0001] The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition useful for the prevention or treatment of malignant tumors. Specifically, it relates to a novel compound or a pharmaceutical composition containing the same that inhibits the growth and survival of cancer cells and simultaneously activates immune and inflammatory responses to exhibit an anticancer effect. Furthermore, it relates to a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention, inhibition, or treatment of malignant tumors containing the said compound and its use.

[0002]

[0003] Malignant tumors arise from the abnormal proliferation of cells and the evasion of apoptosis, and are known to progress due to various biological factors such as genetic factors, exposure to carcinogens, chronic inflammation, and immune evasion.

[0004] Currently, clinically used anticancer drugs are primarily classified into DNA synthesis inhibitors, microtubule inhibitors, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and immune checkpoint inhibitors. While these drugs exhibit short-term tumor suppression effects, side effects such as damage to normal cells due to non-specific toxicity, the development of drug resistance, and cardiotoxicity and hepatotoxicity are frequently reported. In particular, although targeted therapies have a selective inhibitory effect on specific mutated genes, long-term administration leads to the activation of compensatory signaling pathways and the induction of acquired mutations in tumor cells, resulting in a problem of low sustainability of therapeutic effects.

[0005] Meanwhile, immunotherapy is attracting attention as a new approach to eliminate tumors by activating immune cells; however, it has limitations in applying to all patient groups due to immune-related adverse events or responsiveness limited to specific cancer types. Furthermore, chemotherapy and radiotherapy present problems such as difficulty in long-term treatment due to severe side effects and low selectivity, as well as the inability to completely suppress the recurrence and metastasis of cancer cells.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop anticancer compositions with a new mechanism of action that can overcome the problems of resistance and toxicity of existing anticancer drugs and selectively inhibit the survival mechanisms of cancer cells while minimizing toxicity to normal cells.

[0007]

[0008] One embodiment of the present invention aims to provide a composition for the prevention or treatment of malignant tumors with a novel mechanism of action capable of selectively inhibiting the survival mechanism of cancer cells, while overcoming the limitations of non-specific toxicity, drug resistance, and treatment persistence of existing anticancer drugs.

[0403] As a representative compound according to one embodiment, the tumor growth inhibitory effect of the compound of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000) was evaluated in an HL-60 cell xenograft model using BALB / c mice. Specifically, after inducing tumor formation by subcutaneously injecting the HL-60 cells into the BALB / c mice, the tumor size was approximately 300 mm 3 At the point of growth above this level, the test group and control group were distinguished and evaluated.

[0404] The above test group was prepared by dissolving the compound of Example 1-14 (GX-25000) in a polyethylene glycol (PEG400) solvent to make a 150 μM solution and administering it, and the above control group was the polyethylene glycol (Polyethylene Glycol 400, PEG-400) treatment group of Comparative Example 1-2.

[0405] 200 μL was administered intraperitoneally to mice of each of the above test group and control group at 1-day intervals. The sample size (n) for each test group and control group was set to 4. The results are as shown in Figure 6.

[0406] Referring to Fig. 6, in the case of the control group, the tumor volume increased by 437.3±64.3% (n=4) on the 7th day of administration, whereas in the case of the test group, the increase in tumor volume was only 146.7±24.6% (n=4). That is, it can be seen that the compound of Example 1-14 (GX-25000) according to one embodiment clearly demonstrates a tumor growth inhibitory effect in an in vivo model.

[0407]

[0408] Example 6: Confirmation of mechanism through RNA analysis

[0409] As a representative compound according to one embodiment, the molecular mechanism of action of anticancer activity was elucidated through transcriptome (RNA-seq) analysis in cells treated with the compound of Example 1-14 (GX-25000). Specifically, the compound of Example 1-14 (GX-25000) was subjected to transcriptome analysis (RNA sequencing, RNA-seq) on HL-60 cells, a human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell line.

[0410] The above HL-60 cells were treated with 10 μM of the compound of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000), and the control group was treated with DMSO (0.1%) under the same conditions. After 24 hours of treatment, total RNA was extracted and sequenced using the 150 bp paired-end method with the Illumina platform.

[0411] Differentially expressed genes (DEG; padj < 0.05) were identified using DESeq2 and subsequently evaluated using Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA). The specific analysis items were categorized into Hallmark gene set, Gene Ontology: Biological Process (GO:BP), Gene Ontology: Molecular Function (GO:MF), Gene Ontology: Cellular Component (GO:CC), Chemical & Genetic Perturbation, and Transcription Factor Target (C3:TFT).

[0412] Each result is shown in Figures 7 (a) to (f).

[0413]

[0414] (1) Hallmark analysis results

[0415] When treated with the compound of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000) above, immune and inflammation-related pathways such as TNFα signaling, interferon response (IFN), and the IL6 / JAK / STAT3 pathway were significantly activated: (NES > 0, padj < 0.01),

[0416] On the other hand, pathways related to cell proliferation signals, such as MYC targets and E2F targets, were inhibited, and it was confirmed that the compound of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000) exhibited an action accompanied by cell proliferation inhibition and immune activation.

[0417] In addition, it was confirmed that the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) related pathway is activated, leading to increased intracellular protein stress and inducing apoptosis caused by endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress).

[0418] Through these results, it can be confirmed that the compound of Example 1-14 (GX-25000) inhibits the growth and division of cancer cells while simultaneously exhibiting anticancer activity through immune and stress responses.

[0419]

[0420] (2) GO Analysis Results

[0421] GO: Biological Process (BP) analysis results confirmed that biological processes related to stress, immunity, and inflammation, such as acute-phase response, T cell-mediated cytotoxicity, and inflammatory response, were significantly activated in the group treated with the compounds of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000).

[0422] GO: As a result of Molecular Function (MF) analysis, it was confirmed that immune-related signaling functions, such as immune receptor activity and cytokine receptor binding, were increased in the treatment group of the compounds of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000), while the functions of ATP-dependent protein folding chaperone and RNA splicing factor activity were inhibited.

[0423] GO: Cellular Component (CC) analysis results showed that in the group treated with the compounds of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000), genes related to cellular organelles involved in protein synthesis, such as cytosolic ribosomes and ribosomal subunits, were relatively increased, and inhibition of the protein folding chaperone complex and spliceosomal complex gene groups was observed.

[0424] Through these results, it can be confirmed that the compound of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000) increases the expression of genes related to protein synthesis at the ribosome level, but reduces the efficiency of subsequent protein folding and splicing quality control processes, thereby inducing the accumulation of protein stress within the cell and consequently reducing the viability of cancer cells.

[0425]

[0426] (3) Analysis results of chemical and genetic perturbation

[0427] When treated with the compound of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000), the EIF2AK4 / GCN2 signaling pathway and the ATF4 activation pathway were significantly activated (NES > 0, p.adj < 0.01). This means that the compound of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000) detects intracellular amino acid deficiency or abnormal protein synthesis conditions, activates GCN2 (EIF2AK4) signaling, and selectively activates the ATF4 transcription factor (activating transcription factor 4) through eIF2α phosphorylation, thereby inducing stress response gene expression. In other words, it means that it induces amino acid deficiency-like signaling and apoptotic ER stress centered on the GCN2 (eIF2AK4)-eIF2α-ATF4-CHOP axis. In particular, the selective activation of the ATF4 / CHOP axis indicates that a terminal UPR, i.e., an apoptosis-inducing UPR, is being induced rather than a restorative UPR (ATF6 / XBP1 pathway).

[0428] Through these results, it can be confirmed that the compound of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000) increases protein folding load, inhibits recovery UPR (ATF6 / XBP1 axis), and induces terminal UPR (ATF4-CHOP axis), thereby blocking the survival pathway of cancer cells and promoting apoptosis.

[0429]

[0430] (4) Transcription factor target gene set (C3:TFT) analysis results

[0431] In the group treated with the compound of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000), both the CHOP_01 and CEBPB_01 gene sets were activated (NES > 0, p.adj < 0.01). This means that the compound of Examples 1-14 (GX-25000) strongly induces a transcriptional stress program centered on the PERK-eIF2α-ATF4-CHOP axis. The simultaneous activation of CHOP and C / EBPβ is known to be a key indicator of the apoptotic ER stress program.

[0432] Therefore, it can be confirmed that the compound of Example 1-14 (GX-25000) induces an imbalance in protein synthesis and quality control, thereby activating ER stress and inducing selective death of leukemia cells through an ATF4-CHOP-centered apoptotic UPR.

[0433]

[0434] When combining the results of (1) to (4) above, as summarized in [Table 3] below, it can be seen that the compound according to one embodiment exhibits selective activation of the GCN2-eIF2α-ATF4-CHOP axis; inhibition of the ATF6 / XBP1-related recovery type UPR; induction of nutrient deficiency-based endoplasmic reticulum stress and conversion to a death type UPR; and simultaneous activation of immune and inflammatory response pathways. As a result, it can be confirmed that it acts as a protein stress-based apoptosis-inducing anticancer candidate substance and is a new therapeutic candidate substance with a complex anticancer mechanism that is differentiated from existing compounds.
