Pharmaceutical composition for the prevention or treatment of lung cancer
[0001] The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention or treatment of lung cancer.
[0002] The present invention claims priority based on Korean Patent Application No. 10-2024-0168772 filed on November 22, 2024 and Korean Patent Application No. 10-2025-0177466 filed on November 20, 2025, and all contents disclosed in the specifications and drawings of said applications are incorporated by reference into the present application.
[0003] The development of cancer is associated with various environmental factors, including chemicals, radiation, and viruses, as well as changes in genes related to oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes, apoptosis, and DNA repair. Recently, understanding these molecular mechanisms of cancer has made targeted anticancer therapy a new treatment method possible. Targeted therapies are generally designed to exert their effects by targeting molecules characteristic of cancer cells. Molecular targets include genes related to cancer cell signal transduction pathways, angiogenesis, the matrix, cell cycle regulators, or apoptosis. Important targeted therapies currently in use include signal transduction pathway inhibitors, such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and angiogenesis inhibitors. Protein tyrosine kinase has been identified as playing a crucial role in many malignant tumors. In particular, the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), a receptor tyrosine kinase of the ErbB family, is abnormally activated in many epithelial tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), breast cancer, glioma, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, colorectal cancer, head and neck cancer, gastric cancer, and prostate cancer, and it is known that the activation of the EGFR-tyrosine kinase causes sustained cell proliferation, invasion of surrounding tissues, distant metastasis, and angiogenesis, and increases cell survival.
[0004] Meanwhile, while the primary treatment for lung cancer in the past relied on cytotoxic chemotherapy drugs, it is reported that in the current non-small cell lung cancer treatment market, immunotherapy drugs account for about 60%, targeted anticancer drugs for about 30%, and chemotherapy drugs for about 10%. Currently, the target gene mutations for FDA-approved targeted anticancer drugs for non-small cell lung cancer include EGFR, KRAS, ALK, ROS1, BRAF, MET, RET, and HER2. Among these, the mutation frequencies are reported to be in the order of EGFR (about 28%), KRAS (about 25.3%), ALK (about 3.8%), ROS1 (about 2.6%), and RET (about 1.7%).
[0005] Among targeted anticancer drugs, EGFR targeted anticancer drugs that exert anticancer effects by blocking EGFR can be broadly classified into two mechanisms. Specifically, there are methods using antibodies that interfere with the binding of EGF and EGFR, and methods utilizing EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) that block signal transduction by binding to the intracellular tyrosine kinase (TK) domain. Among these, fourth-generation EGFR TKIs, which are currently receiving attention, primarily target the C797S mutation, which confers resistance to third-generation EGFR TKIs. While several domestic and international pharmaceutical companies are developing drugs in this class, EGFR TKIs have the limitation of repeatedly developing drug resistance during treatment because they target sites where mutations occur intensively. Specifically, it is known that resistance develops within 9 to 13 months after administration in approximately 50 to 60 percent of patients treated with first and second-generation EGFR TKIs, and one of the main causes is the Exon 20 T790M mutation. The T790M mutation involves the substitution of the 790th amino acid of the EGFR protein from threonine to methionine, which interferes with the binding of first and second-generation EGFR TKIs and can induce resistance. To overcome this problem, third-generation EGFR TKIs such as osimertinib (Tagrisso) and lazertinib (Lecraza) were developed, but subsequent resistance issues caused by new mutations or alternative signaling pathways are still being continuously reported. Therefore, in order to overcome the limitations of drug resistance caused by the use of these EGFR TKIs, there is a growing need to develop a therapeutic agent that can fundamentally suppress the occurrence of drug resistance, such as that caused by the use of EGFR TKIs, by utilizing a mechanism of action that is distinct from conventional therapeutic agents—namely, a mechanism of action that binds to an EGFR site different from the site where tyrosine kinase (TK) mutations occur and induces degradation.

[0080] The present invention relates to a compound capable of preventing and treating lung cancer by inhibiting the expression or activity of Anoctamin 1 (ANO1), a calcium-dependent chloride channel, and the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), an epidermal growth factor receptor. Specifically, it was confirmed that tumorigenicity and proliferation were significantly inhibited in lung cancer cells treated with the compound of the present invention. Furthermore, it was confirmed that tumor proliferation was inhibited when the compound of the present invention was treated in a xenograft mouse model formed by injecting lung cancer cells into mice.

[0280] Example 2. Confirmation of the inhibitory effect of the compound of the present invention on cell proliferation and tumorigenicity
[0281]
[0282] In this embodiment, a clonal formation assay was performed on lung cancer cell lines to confirm the cancer cell proliferation inhibitory effect of the compounds of the present invention and osimertinib, a third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor. The clonal formation assay is an in vitro cell survival / proliferation test that evaluates the ability of a single cell to proliferate indefinitely and form at least 50 cell colonies. That is, this embodiment confirmed the clonal formation inhibitory effect of the compounds of the present invention, AON-MG23-01 and AON-MG23-02 (Fig. 1a), in lung cancer cell lines, and compared the tumor proliferation inhibitory effect with that of osimertinib, a standard drug used as an EGFR targeted therapy in lung cancer treatment.
[0283] Specifically, lung cancer cell lines were seeded into a 6-well cell culture plate at a density of 250 or 1,000 cells per well. The next day, the cell culture medium was removed and replaced with a cell culture medium containing the compounds of the present invention, AON-MG23-01 and AON-MG23-02, and Osimertinib at concentrations of 0 nM, 250 nM, 500 nM, or 0 nM, 10 nM, 50 nM, 100 nM. After treatment with the compounds of the present invention or Osimertinib, the cells were cultured for 6 to 7 days or 14 days. Subsequently, the resulting cell colonies were stained and photographed, observed under a microscope, and the number of cell colonies in the captured images was measured and analyzed using Image J software.
[0284]
[0285] As a result, it was confirmed that the compound of the present invention AON-MG23-01 (Figs. 2a and 2b) or AON-MG23-02 (Figs. 2c to 2e) inhibits the proliferation (tumorigenicity) of lung cancer cell lines.
[0286]
[0287] Example 3. Confirmation of ANO1, phosphorylated EGFR, and EGFR protein expression in lung cancer cell lines
[0288]
[0289] In this example, the expression of ANO1, EGFR, and phosphorylated EGFR proteins in human lung cancer cell lines was confirmed. Specifically, human lung cancer cell lines were cultured in 100 mm dishes covering at least 70% of the dish area. After culture, the cells were harvested and lysed to perform Western blot. Antibodies used for Western blot included an anti-ANO1 antibody (Abcam, ab53212), an anti-phosphorylated EGFR antibody (Cell Signaling, #4407S), an anti-EGFR antibody (Cell Signaling, #4267S), and an anti-GAPDH antibody (Cell Signaling, #5174). Protein concentration was quantified using the BSA method (Protein Quantitation Assay, Bovine serum albumin assay) (Pierce, Cat.23225). After lysing the cells, the proteins obtained therefrom were separated by molecular weight using SDS-PAGE with equal amounts (10 μg). The proteins were then transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (PVDF, Bio-rad) and treated with 5% blocking buffer (5% Skim milk in TBS-T, Tris-buffered saline buffer containing 0.1% Tween 20) at room temperature for 1 hour. Subsequently, the primary antibody was applied to the membrane and reacted at 4°C for 18 hours. After the reaction was complete, the membrane was washed three times with TBS-T for 10 minutes at room temperature. Next, the membrane was reacted with a secondary antibody (bethyl, #A90-117P, #A120-101P) labeled with horseradish peroxidase at room temperature for 1 hour, and then washed three times with TBS-T for 10 minutes each. After washing, the membrane was treated with an ECL kit (Thermo, West Pico Plus) and reacted, and visualized using a Da Vinci-Q (Youngin Lab Plus) instrument.The visualized results were analyzed by quantifying the amount of each protein using Image J software.
[0290] As a result, the expression of ANO1, EGFR, and phosphorylated EGFR proteins was checked in six types of lung cancer cell lines, and it was confirmed that ANO1 and EGFR were expressed in all cell lines, but phosphorylated EGFR was expressed in four types of cell lines (Fig. 3).
[0291]
[0292] Example 4. Confirmation of the inhibitory effects of the compound of the present invention on ANO1, phosphorylated EGFR, and EGFR protein expression
[0293]
[0294] In this example, it was confirmed whether the compound of the present invention affects ANO1, phosphorylated EGFR, and EGFR protein expression in human lung cancer cell lines. Specifically, human lung cancer cell line H1975 in a 60 mm dish was 3×10 5 In terms of cell / dish density, H1975 / OR cells are 6×10 5The cells were seeded at a cell / dish density. After culturing for 24 hours, the compound of the present invention, AON-MG23-02, and the EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, osimertinib, were each treated at a concentration of 1 μM, while the untreated control group was treated with DMSO and cultured for 48 hours. After culturing, the cells were harvested and lysed to perform Western blot. Antibodies used for Western blot included an anti-ANO1 antibody (Abcam, ab53212), an anti-phosphorylated EGFR antibody (Cell Signaling, #4407S), an anti-EGFR antibody (Cell Signaling, #4267S), and an anti-GAPDH antibody (Cell Signaling, #5174). Protein concentration was quantified using the BSA method (Protein Quantitation Assay, Bovine serum albumin assay) (Pierce, Cat.23225). After lysing the cells, the proteins obtained therefrom were separated by molecular weight using SDS-PAGE with equal amounts (10 μg). The proteins were then transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (PVDF, Bio-rad) and treated with 5% blocking buffer (5% Skim milk in TBS-T, Tris-buffered saline buffer containing 0.1% Tween 20) at room temperature for 1 hour. Subsequently, the primary antibody was applied to the membrane and reacted at 4°C for 18 hours. After the reaction was complete, the membrane was washed three times with TBS-T for 10 minutes at room temperature. Next, the membrane was reacted with a secondary antibody labeled with horseradish peroxidase (bethyl, #A90-117P, #A120-101P) at room temperature for 1 hour, and then washed three times with TBS-T for 10 minutes each.After washing, the membrane was treated with an ECL kit (Thermo, West Pico Plus) to induce a reaction, and the results were visualized using a Da Vinci-Q (Youngin Lab Plus) instrument. The visualized results were analyzed by quantifying the amount of each protein using Image J software. Specifically, in this example, among six types of lung cancer cell lines, H1975 cells and H1975 / OR cells resistant to osimertinib, a representative EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, were treated with an appropriate amount of AON-MG23-02, and a test was conducted to confirm that the expression of target proteins ANO1, EGFR, and phosphorylated EGFR proteins was inhibited.
[0295] As a result, in H1975 cells, the degree of inhibition of ANO1 and EGFR phosphorylation proteins by the compound AON-MG23-02 of the present invention and osimertinib was similar, but in the case of EGFR, it was confirmed that the inhibitory effect on protein expression was significantly increased in AON-MG23-02 compared to osimertinib (Fig. 4). In addition, in H1975 / OR, a cell line resistant to osimertinib, it was confirmed that while osimertinib inhibited only EGFR phosphorylation proteins, the compound AON-MG23-02 of the present invention inhibited EGFR proteins as well as EGFR phosphorylation proteins. In conclusion, it was confirmed that there are significant differences in their respective mechanisms, as EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as osimertinib inhibit cell proliferation activity by inhibiting the phosphorylation of EGFR, whereas AON-MG23 inhibits lung cancer cell activity by simultaneously binding to the complex of ANO1 and EGFR and sequentially degrading the two target proteins.
[0296]
[0297] Example 5. Confirmation of the cancer growth inhibitory effect of the compound of the present invention
[0298]
[0299] In this embodiment, the cancer growth inhibitory effect of the compound of the present invention was confirmed in a xenograft model of an osimertinib-resistant human lung cancer cell line. Specifically, to confirm the in vivo cancer growth inhibitory effect of the compound of the present invention, H1975 / OR cells, a human lung cancer cell line resistant to osimertinib, were subcutaneously transplanted into nude mice. After an appropriate period, the compound of the present invention was orally administered daily for 4 weeks, either alone or in combination with osimertinib, and the tumor growth inhibitory effect was confirmed to verify the anticancer effect. Specifically, 1×10⁶ H1975 / OR cells, an osimertinib-resistant human lung cancer cell line 6 The cells were diluted in HBSS to a concentration of 100 µl / cells and prepared according to the number of animals to be treated, and 100 µl of the cell suspension was filled into a 1 ml syringe. The prepared lung cancer cells were injected and implanted into the subcutaneous tissue of the right lower dorsal region of nude mice, and the volume of the grown tumor was approximately 40 mm². 3 Upon reaching [date], group separation was initiated, and AON-MG23-02 and the control drug osimertinib, as set according to the study plan, were administered orally according to the established cycles and doses. The AON-MG23-02 monotherapy group was administered orally at a dose of 75 mg / kg daily for 4 weeks, and the control drug osimertinib was also administered orally at a dose of 5 mg in the same cycle. The combination therapy group was administered osimertinib 5 mg / kg, followed immediately by oral administration of AON-MG23-02 at 25, 50, or 75 mg / kg. Survival rate, changes in body weight, and changes in tumor size were periodically measured and recorded from 20 days after drug administration until the end of the study. Tumor volume (TV) was calculated using the maximum length (L) and perpendicular width (W) values of the tumor using the following [Equation 1].
[0300] [Mathematical Formula 1]
[0301] TV (mm 3 )= L (mm) XW 2 (mm 2 )X(1 / 2)
[0302] As a result, due to the characteristics of the osimertinib-resistant human lung cancer cell line, osimertinib monotherapy was ineffective, and a large number of individuals were identified in the high-dose monotherapy group of the compound of the present invention (A75) and the combination therapy group of the compound of the present invention and osimertinib, in which cancer growth was reduced and disappeared (Fig. 5). This suggests that an anticancer effect can be exerted not only when the compound of the present invention is administered alone, but also when the compound of the present invention is administered in combination with osimertinib.
[0303]
[0304] The experiment regarding this embodiment was repeated at least three times, and the results were expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Statistical significance was confirmed using Student's t-test, and if P < 0.05, it was determined to be statistically significant. * indicates P < 0.01, and **** indicates P < 0.0001.
[0305]
[0306] Example 6. Confirmation of the predicted binding result between ANO1, the target protein of the compound of the present invention, and the EGFR complex.
[0307]
[0308] In this embodiment, the results of a prediction simulation of binding between the compounds of the present invention, AON-MG23-01 and AON-MG23-02, and the target proteins, ANO1 and EGFR complex, were confirmed. Specifically, the 3D structure of the target proteins, ANO1 and EGFR complex, was constructed as a PDB using the AlphaFoldServer platform (AlphaFold Server) based on the respective nucleotide sequences of ANO1 and EGFR proteins. In addition, SMILES for each compound, AON-MG23-01 and AON-MG23-02, were constructed using the SwissTargetPrediction DrugDesign program for the Autodock VINA docking program.
[0309] The Autodock VINA docking program was used to predict the binding between the tertiary structure of the constructed ANO1 and EGFR complex and the compounds of the present invention, AON-MG23-01 and AON-MG23-02. In addition, for the binding between AON-MG23-01 and AON-MG23-02 and the target proteins ANO1 and EGFR complex, a model with high binding affinity was selected based on the vina score, which indicates intermolecular binding affinity, and the cavity volume, which indicates the binding space within the protein.
[0310]
[0311] As a result, the docking simulation results are as follows. As a result of the binding simulation between the ANO1 and EGFR complex and AON-MG23-01, the vina score, which indicates the binding affinity of the molecule, was -8.6 as shown in Figures 6a and 6b, and the cavity volume, which indicates the binding space measured within the protein and used to evaluate the possibility of binding, was confirmed to be 22184.
[0312] As a result of the binding simulation between the ANO1 and EGFR complex and AON-MG23-02, as shown in Figures 6c and 6d, the vina score, which indicates the binding affinity of the molecule, was -8.4, and the cavity volume, which indicates the binding space measured within the protein and used to evaluate the possibility of binding, was confirmed to be 22184.
[0313] In other words, AON-MG23-01 and AON-MG23-02 were confirmed to possess material properties exhibiting high binding affinity to the complex of ANO1 and EGFR, respectively. Furthermore, through this binding prediction test, AON-MG23-01 and AON-MG23-02 exhibited a common binding pattern to the binding site between ANO1 and EGFR JM (juxtamembrane) within the complex of the target proteins ANO1 and EGFR. Although the respective binding sites showed slight differences, it was confirmed that they commonly bound to the JM (juxtamembrane) site rather than the EGFR TK (tyrosine kinase) site.

[0315] This research regarding the present invention was supported by the Starting growth Technological R&D Program (TIPS Program, No.RS-2023-00285168) funded by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups (MSS, Korea) in 2023.
[0316]
[0317] The foregoing description of the present invention is for illustrative purposes only, and those skilled in the art will understand that other specific forms can be easily modified without altering the technical spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments described above should be understood as illustrative in all respects and not restrictive.
[0318]
[0319] The present invention relates to a compound capable of preventing and treating lung cancer by inhibiting the expression or activity of Anoctamin 1 (ANO1), a calcium-dependent chloride channel, and the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), an epidermal growth factor receptor. Specifically, it was confirmed that tumorigenicity and proliferation were significantly inhibited in lung cancer cells treated with the compound of the present invention. Furthermore, it was confirmed that tumor proliferation was inhibited when the compound of the present invention was treated in a xenograft mouse model formed by injecting lung cancer cells into mice. This inhibitory effect was found to be significantly superior compared to conventional EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Since the compound of the present invention can simultaneously inhibit ANO1 and EGFR, it was possible to exhibit a significantly superior anticancer effect through this dual inhibition. It was also confirmed that when the compound of the present invention is administered in combination with an EGFR targeted anticancer drug, it not only exhibits a synergistic anticancer effect but also inhibits the development of drug resistance in cancer cells. Therefore, the compound of the present invention can be usefully used alone as a composition for the prevention or treatment of lung cancer, and can be used as a dual-target anticancer agent for ANO1 and EGFR itself, and can also be utilized as an adjuvant or combination agent in combination with EGFR targeted therapies, thus having industrial applicability.
