Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a camptothecin antibody-drug conjugate with a highly stable hydrophilic connecting structural unit. Background Art

[0002] Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), as a new type of targeted drug, are generally composed of three parts: an antibody or antibody-like ligand, a small molecule drug, and a linker that couples the ligand and drug. Antibody-drug conjugates utilize the antibody's specific recognition of the antigen to transport the drug molecule to the vicinity of the target cell and effectively release the drug molecule to achieve the therapeutic purpose. In August 2011, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Adcetris, a new ADC developed by Seattle Genetics for the treatment of Hodgkin's lymphoma and relapsed anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). TM The safety and effectiveness of these drugs have been demonstrated in clinical applications.

[0003] Camptothecins, small molecule anti-tumor compounds, are known to exhibit anti-tumor effects by inhibiting DNA topoisomerase I, including irinotecan, exotecan, and SN38. Many camptothecins have been widely used clinically, primarily for bone cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer, and pancreatic cancer. Unlike irinotecan, currently used clinically, exotecan does not require enzyme activation. Furthermore, compared to SN-38, the active ingredient in irinotecan, and topotecan, also used clinically, exotecan exhibits stronger topoisomerase I inhibitory activity and exhibits enhanced cytotoxicity against various cancer cells in vitro. In particular, it is effective against cancer cells that exhibit resistance to SN-38, such as those resistant to SN-38, as demonstrated by P-glycoprotein expression. Exotecan has not yet been successfully marketed as a standalone chemotherapy agent, presumably due to its high cellular activity, resulting in a narrow therapeutic window.

[0004] The advantages of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) lie in their increased water solubility, enhanced targeting, and specific antibody-antigen binding, which delivers the drug to target cells. By releasing the drug near target cells, it effectively kills tumor cells and reduces toxic side effects. Camptothecins hold considerable promise for application in ADCs. Trastuzumab deruxtecan (trade name Enhertu), an antibody-drug conjugate containing deruxtecan as a toxin, was approved for marketing by the US FDA on December 20, 2019. As the first marketed camptothecin ADC, it demonstrates the druggability and application prospects of this class of drugs in the ADC field.

[0005] The ADC drug structure includes three key parts: antibody, linker, and toxin. Defects in any part may affect the overall efficacy of the ADC. In this field, the structural design defects of Enhertu are obvious: camptothecin is a class of highly lipid-soluble and poorly soluble drugs. The linker-toxin used by Enhertu is designed to be connected to the antibody through an Mc linker, connecting an enzymatically cleavable tetrapeptide fragment, with an aminomethoxy self-eliminating spacer unit, and using interchain cysteine ​​residues to achieve a drug-antibody ratio (DAR) of 8 using non-site-specific coupling technology (reference patent CN104755494). The design of this linker, at a high DAR value, will lead to reduced stability of camptothecin ADC drugs and reduced monomer rate, further reducing the in vivo efficacy and safety of ADC.

[0006] The technical problem that this patent needs to solve is to explore and discover better anti-tumor camptothecin ADC drugs so that they have higher safety and effectiveness and better meet clinical needs. Summary of the Invention

[0007] Based on a comprehensive understanding of ADC drugs, the inventors unexpectedly discovered a series of camptothecin derivative antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) with highly stable hydrophilic peptide linkers. Experiments revealed that the camptothecin derivative ADCs equipped with these peptide linkers exhibited high stability in vitro and in vivo, high monomer yields, and significantly higher pharmacodynamic activity than control ADCs. Furthermore, through innovative synthetic route design, the inventors developed a novel deprotection reagent and solvent strategy that efficiently yielded these complex linker-toxin molecules.

[0116] Abbreviations and definitions

[0117] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. Although any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used to practice or test the present invention, the preferred methods and materials are described herein. In describing and claiming the present invention, the following terms are used in accordance with the following definitions.

[0118] When a trade name is used herein, applicants intend to include formulations of the trade name product, generic versions of the trade name product, and the active drug portion of the trade name product.

[0119] Unless otherwise indicated, the following terms and phrases as used herein are intended to have the following meanings. When a trade name is used herein, unless the context indicates otherwise, the trade name includes the product formulation, generic drug and active pharmaceutical ingredient of the trade name product.

[0120] Unless otherwise stated, the terms used in the specification and claims have the following meanings.

[0121] The term "ligand" refers to a macromolecular compound that can recognize and bind to an antigen or receptor associated with a target cell. The function of a ligand is to present a drug to the target cell population bound to the ligand. These ligands include, but are not limited to, protein hormones, lectins, growth factors, antibodies, or other molecules capable of binding to cells. In embodiments of the present invention, the ligand is represented by Ab, and the ligand can form a bond with a linker via a heteroatom on the ligand. The ligand is preferably an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof, selected from a chimeric antibody, a humanized antibody, a fully human antibody, or a murine antibody; preferably, a monoclonal antibody.

[0122] The Ligand unit is a targeting agent that specifically binds to a target moiety. The ligand can specifically bind to a cellular component or to other target molecules of interest. The target moiety or target is typically on the cell surface. In some aspects, the role of the Ligand unit is to deliver the Drug unit to a specific target cell population with which the Ligand unit interacts. Ligands include, but are not limited to, proteins, polypeptides, and peptides, as well as non-proteins such as sugars. Suitable Ligand units include, for example, antibodies, such as full-length (intact) antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof. In embodiments where the Ligand unit is a non-antibody targeting agent, it can be a peptide or polypeptide, or a non-protein molecule. Examples of such targeting agents include interferons, lymphokines, hormones, growth factors, colony-stimulating factors, vitamins, nutrient transport molecules, or any other cell-binding molecule or substance. In some embodiments, a linker is covalently linked to a sulfur atom of the ligand. In some aspects, the sulfur atom is a sulfur atom of a cysteine ​​residue, which forms an interchain disulfide bond of the antibody. In another aspect, the sulfur atom is a sulfur atom of a cysteine ​​residue that has been introduced into the Ligand unit, which forms an interchain disulfide bond of the antibody. In another aspect, the sulfur atom is a sulfur atom of a cysteine ​​residue that has been introduced into the Ligand unit (e.g., by site-directed mutagenesis or chemical reaction). In other aspects, the sulfur atom to which the linker is bound is selected from a cysteine ​​residue that forms an interchain disulfide bond of the antibody or an additional cysteine ​​residue that has been introduced into the Ligand unit (e.g., by site-directed mutagenesis or chemical reaction). In some embodiments, the numbering system is based on the EU index as in Kabat {[Kabat EA et al., (1991)] Sequences of proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th ed., NIH publication 91-3242}.

[0123] As used herein, "antibody" or "antibody unit" includes any part of the antibody structure within the scope thereof. This unit can bind to, reactively associate with, or complex with a receptor, antigen or other receptor unit possessed by the target cell population. An antibody can be any protein or protein-like molecule that can bind to, complex with or react with a portion of the cell population to be treated or biomodified. The antibodies that constitute the antibody drug conjugates of the present invention retain their original antigen binding ability in the wild state. Therefore, the antibodies of the present invention can specifically bind to antigens. The antigens involved include, for example, tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), cell surface receptor proteins and other cell surface molecules, cell survival regulatory factors, cell proliferation regulatory factors, molecules related to tissue growth and differentiation (such as known or predicted functional ones), lymphokines, cytokines, molecules involved in cell cycle regulation, molecules involved in angiogenesis, and molecules related to angiogenesis (such as known or predicted functional ones). Tumor-associated factors can be cluster differentiation factors (such as CD proteins).

[0124] Antibodies used in antibody-drug conjugates include, but are not limited to, antibodies against cell surface receptors and tumor-associated antigens. Such tumor-associated antigens are well known in the industry and can be prepared using methods and information for antibody preparation that are well known in the industry. In order to develop effective cellular targets that can be used for cancer diagnosis and treatment, researchers strive to find transmembrane or other tumor-associated polypeptides. These targets can be specifically expressed on the surface of one or more cancer cells, while being rarely or not expressed on the surface of one or more non-cancerous cells. Typically, such tumor-associated polypeptides are more overexpressed on the surface of cancer cells than on the surface of non-cancerous cells. Identifying such tumor-associated factors can greatly improve the specific targeting properties of antibody-based cancer treatment. For convenience, information related to antigens well known in the industry is marked below, including name, other names, and gene bank accession number. Nucleic acid and protein sequences corresponding to tumor-associated antigens can be found in public databases, such as Genbank. The antibody targets the corresponding tumor-associated antigen, including all amino acid sequence variants and isotypes, and has at least 70%, 80%, 85%, 90% or 95% homology with the sequence confirmed in the reference, or has biological properties and characteristics that are completely consistent with the tumor-associated antigen sequence in the cited reference.

[0125] The term "inhibit" or "inhibition of" refers to reducing by a detectable amount, or completely preventing.

[0126] The term "cancer" refers to the physiological condition or disease characterized by unregulated cell growth. A "tumor" includes cancer cells.

[0127] The term "autoimmune disease" is a disease or disorder that arises from a host directed against an individual's own tissues or proteins.

[0128] The term "drug" refers to cytotoxic drugs, which are chemical molecules that can strongly disrupt the normal growth of tumor cells. Cytotoxic drugs can kill tumor cells in principle at sufficiently high concentrations, but due to their lack of specificity, they can also cause apoptosis of normal cells while killing tumor cells, leading to serious side effects. The term includes toxins, such as small molecule toxins or enzyme-active toxins of bacterial, fungal, plant or animal origin, radioactive isotopes (such as At 211 , I 131 , I 125 、Y 90 、Re 186 、Re 188 、Sm 153 、Bi 212 、P 32 He Lu 176 radioactive isotopes), toxic drugs, chemotherapeutic drugs, antibiotics and nucleolytic enzymes, preferably toxic drugs.

[0129] The term "camptothecin drugs" refers to cytotoxic camptothecin and its derivatives, selected from, but not limited to, 10-hydroxycamptothecin, SN38 (7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin), topotecan, exitecan, irinotecan or 9-nitro-10-hydroxycamptothecin and its derivatives or pharmaceutically acceptable salts.

[0130] The term "linker" or "linker fragment" or "linker unit" refers to a chemical structure fragment or bond that is connected to a ligand at one end and to a drug at the other end, and can also be connected to other linkers before being connected to the drug.

[0131] Linkers, including extenders, spacers, and amino acid units, can be synthesized by methods known in the art, such as those described in US 2005-0238649 A1. The linker can be a "cleavable linker" that facilitates release of the drug in the cell. For example, an acid-labile linker (e.g., a hydrazone), a protease-sensitive (e.g., a peptidase-sensitive) linker, a photolabile linker, a dimethyl linker, or a disulfide-containing linker can be used (Chari et al. Cancer Research 52:127-131, 1992); U.S. Patent No. 5,208,020.

[0132] According to the mechanism of drug release in cells, as used herein, "linkers" or "linkers of antibody drug conjugates" can be divided into two categories: non-cleavable linkers and cleavable linkers. For ligand-drug conjugates containing non-cleavable linkers, the drug release mechanism is as follows: after the conjugate binds to the antigen and is internalized by the cell, the antibody is enzymatically hydrolyzed in the lysosome, releasing the active molecule composed of the small molecule drug, the linker, and the antibody amino acid residues. The resulting change in the drug molecular structure does not weaken its cytotoxicity, but because the active molecule is charged (amino acid residues), it cannot penetrate into neighboring cells. Therefore, this type of active drug cannot kill neighboring tumor cells that do not express the target antigen (antigen-negative cells) (bystander effect) (Ducry et al., 2010, Bioconjugate Chem. 21: 5-13).

[0133] The term "ligand-drug conjugate" refers to an antibody linked to a biologically active drug via a stable linker. In the present invention, the "ligand-drug conjugate" is preferably an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), which refers to a monoclonal antibody or antibody fragment linked to a biologically active toxic drug via a stable linker.

[0831] 3) Operation

[0832] Turn on the UV light of the biosafety cabinet 30 minutes in advance, and then ventilate for 3 minutes. Preheat the growth medium, detection medium, D-PBS and trypsin in a 37°C constant temperature water bath, then disinfect the surface with alcohol and place it in the biosafety cabinet. Select cells with a confluence of ~80% (logarithmic growth phase), place them in the biosafety cabinet, remove the old culture medium, rinse with D-PBS, discard, digest with trypsin for 2-3 minutes, then add growth medium to stop trypsin, and centrifuge at 500×g for 5 minutes. Aspirate the centrifugal supernatant, mix with 4mL detection medium, and take 100uL for counting (take out 50uL of cell fluid, add 50μL0.4% TrypanBlue Stain and mix, and count after mixing). Plate according to the previously set cell number, 80uL / well in a 96-well plate, add only 80uL detection medium to wells E11, F11, and G11, and add 200uL of DPBS to the edge wells to seal. After the plated cells have completely adhered (usually requiring at least 4 hours), prepare and dilute the test sample: Prepare 1.0mL of 2.5μM (5× Top Dose) test sample with assay medium and dispense it into the first column of a V-shaped 96-well plate, 200μL per well. Add 180μL of assay medium to each of columns 2 to 8. Take 30μL from the first column and add it to the second column. Mix up and down 10 times with a pipette, discard the pipette tip, and repeat the same process for the remaining test concentration points, performing a 7-fold gradient dilution. Add 20uL of the gradient concentration test sample to the cells per well. At the same time, add only 20uL of assay medium to column 11. Set up three replicates for each concentration. Then, place the 96-well plate in a 5% CO2, 37°C cell culture incubator and incubate for 5 days.

[0860]

[0861] Note: Mix well before use to ensure the preparation is homogeneous.

[0862] 5) Experimental observation and data collection

[0863] During this experiment, animal experimental operations were carried out in accordance with the requirements of the standard operating procedures for in vivo screening tests of anti-tumor drugs. After tumor inoculation, routine monitoring included tumor growth (tumor was measured twice a week) and the effect of treatment on the normal behavior of the animals. Specifically, the activity of the experimental animals, food and water intake, weight gain or loss (weight was measured twice a week), eyes, fur and other abnormalities. Clinical symptoms observed during the experiment were recorded in the original data. Tumor volume calculation formula: Tumor volume (mm 3 )=1 / 2×(a×b 2 ) (where a represents the long diameter and b represents the short diameter). The data were recorded manually, including the measurement of the long and short diameters of the tumor and the weighing of the animal body weight.

[0864] 6) Efficacy evaluation criteria

[0865] The relative tumor growth rate, T / C%, is the percentage of the tumor volume or weight of the treatment group and the control group at a certain time point. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0866] T / C% = TRTV / CRTV × 100% (TRTV: average RTV of the treatment group; CRTV: average RTV of the vehicle control group; RTV = Vt / V0, V0 is the tumor volume of the animal at the time of grouping, and Vt is the tumor volume of the animal after treatment); or T / C% = TTW / CTW × 100% (TTW: average tumor weight of the treatment group at the end of the experiment; CTW: average tumor weight of the vehicle control group at the end of the experiment).

[0867] The relative tumor inhibition rate (TGI) was calculated as follows: TGI% = (1-T / C) × 100% [T and C are the relative tumor volume (RTV) or tumor weight (TW) of the treatment and control groups at a specific time point, respectively].

[0876] 8) Discussion

[0877] As shown in Table 6, the in vivo efficacy of ADC-6 disclosed in the present invention in the low-dose control group (3.75 mg / Kg) in NCI-H1975 tumor-bearing mice was significantly better than that of the control group ADC-61 and naked antibody. When the dose was increased to 11.25 mg / Kg, the therapeutic effect of ADC-6 disclosed in the present invention was further enhanced and was significantly better than that of the control ADC-61.

[0878] As shown in Table 7, at the same dose (3.75 mg / Kg), the ADC-6 disclosed in the present invention has a significantly better in vivo efficacy on tumor-bearing mice NCI-N87 than the control group ADC-61, and is more significant than the high-dose naked antibody (11.25 mg / Kg).

[0879] As shown in Table 8, the effect of ADC-6 disclosed in the present invention on the body weight of NCI-H1975 tumor-bearing mice in the high-dose control group of 11.25 mg / Kg was significantly smaller than that of ADC-61. Even in this high-dose group, no mouse deaths occurred as shown in the control group, demonstrating that the ADC drug disclosed in the present invention has significant advantages in terms of safety.
