Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of pharmaceuticals, and relates to the field of drug synthesis and pharmacology. More specifically, it relates to a steroid compound having a dual mechanism of androgen receptor degradation and antagonism, a preparation method and its application in the treatment of diseases related to androgen receptor (AR) signaling pathways, including prostate cancer, castration-resistant prostate cancer, SARS-CoV-2 infectious diseases, and advanced breast cancer patients. TECHNICAL BACKGROUND
[0002] Prostate cancer (PCa) is a common malignant tumor of the male urogenital system, and is an androgen-dependent malignancy. Its occurrence, development, metastasis and malignancy are closely related to androgen and its receptor signaling pathway. Therefore, androgen blockade therapy (ADT) has become the main treatment for early PCa. However, after 18-24 months of ADT treatment, patients will adapt to low levels of androgens in the body and develop into lethal castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). In the past two decades, there has been significant progress in the treatment of CRPC patients. Among them, CYP17A1 enzyme (male hormone synthesis enzyme) inhibitors such as abiraterone acetate and second-generation AR antagonists such as enzalutamide, apalutamide and darolutamide have been approved for first-line treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC) patients, and have achieved good therapeutic effects.
[0003] However, after 9-15 months of clinical treatment with abiraterone and second-generation AR antagonists, acquired resistance still occurs, which can be divided into AR-related resistance and AR bypass activation resistance. AR-related resistance includes: 1) amplification and overexpression of AR gene. About 80% of CRPC patients exhibit high AR expression levels, enabling the tumor to adapt to low levels of androgens and continue to grow and proliferate; 2) point mutations and expression of splice variants in the AR ligand binding domain. Among CRPC patients who have received enzalutamide and abiraterone treatment, about 12-48% have AR mutations. The F876L mutation causes enzalutamide and apalutamide to change from AR antagonistic activity to AR agonistic activity, which actually promotes tumor growth, and the L701H and T877A mutations cause abiraterone to lose efficacy due to resistance; among patients who have received enzalutamide or abiraterone treatment, about 50% express splice variants. AR-V567 and AR-V7 are the two most common splice variants, which partially or completely lack the ligand binding domain of AR, so that all current AR antagonists cannot bind to AR to function, resulting in resistance and inactivation. AR bypass-driven resistance refers to the increased expression of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) in CRPC patients, which can compete with AR for binding to response elements, allowing the patient to promote the transcription of downstream tumor-related genes independent of the AR signaling pathway, leading to disease progression.
[0004] Since the five-year survival rate of CRPC patients is less than 30%, the current treatment for CRPC patients cannot effectively control the disease, so there is an urgent need to find new treatment strategies for CRPC patients and drug-resistant CRPC.
[0005] SARS-CoV-2 invades (infects) host cells mainly through two proteases, namely transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) and angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). SARS-CoV-2 adheres to the cell membrane through ACE2, and TMPRSS2 completes the hydrolytic cleavage of the spike protein S1 / S2 site of SARS-CoV-2 to initiate the fusion and entry of SARS-CoV-2 and host cells, and complete the invasion / infection of host cells. TMPRSS2 and ACE2 proteins are positively regulated by the human androgen receptor signaling pathway, so AR antagonists or AR degraders can inhibit the function of AR, down-regulate the expression of TMPRSS2 and ACE2 at the transcriptional level, and thus block the invasion of SARS-CoV-2 into host cells, blocking the infection of the new coronavirus from the source. Figure 1 .
[0006] Clinical studies have also shown that treatment strategies targeting the AR signaling pathway can effectively treat COVID-19 patients and significantly reduce mortality. AR antagonist Pukrutamine developed by Suzhou Kaihua Pharmaceutical has completed a phase II proof-of-concept study of AR antagonists for the treatment of COVID-19 patients, and has achieved surprising clinical anti-COVID-19 effects. It is currently conducting a phase III clinical study in multiple countries. The drug has been granted emergency use authorization in Paraguay in July 2021.
[0007] In summary, the AR signaling pathway plays an important role in various diseases including prostate cancer and COVID-19. The development of AR antagonists or AR degraders is expected to better treat diseases related to the AR signaling pathway. SUMMARY

[0100] All reactions were monitored using thin-layer chromatography (TLC) on silica gel F-254 TLC plates. Column chromatography was performed using silica gel (200-300 mesh). The structures of the compounds were determined by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The solvents used for analysis were deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO-d6) or deuterated chloroform (CDCl3). 1 H and 13C10 NMR measurements were performed using a Bruker 400, Bruker 500, or Bruker 600 NMR spectrometer. Chemical shifts (δ) are expressed in parts per million (ppm), and coupling constants (J) are expressed in Hertz (Hz). Mass spectrometry measurements were performed using a Finnigan MAT95 mass spectrometer for electron ionization (EI) mass spectrometry, a Krats MS 80 mass spectrometer for electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry, and a 1290-6545U HPLC-QTOF high-resolution mass spectrometer for small molecule drug structure analysis. All compounds were purified to >95% purity using analytical high-performance liquid chromatography (PLATISIL ODS 250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm particle size) with acetonitrile / water, acetonitrile / buffer (0.1% trifluoroacetic acid / water), or methanol / buffer (0.1% trifluoroacetic acid / water) as the mobile phase.

[0477] Bioactivity test
[0478] The steroidal compounds of this invention are demonstrated to be suitable for treating diseases mediated by the AR signaling pathway through a series of in vivo and in vitro activity tests. In vitro activity tests include: wild-type AR antagonistic activity test, mutant AR antagonistic activity test, AR degradation activity test, and cell proliferation inhibition activity test; in vivo activity tests include the androgen-dependent organ development (Hershberger) test and other drug-likeness tests such as metabolism.
[0479] 1. Wild-type AR antagonistic activity test
[0480] HEK293 cells were cultured in DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) at 37°C with 5% CO2. Cells were then digested with trypsin and counted. A 10 μL / well transfection solution was prepared using opti-MEM containing 5 ng of the androgen receptor clone, 100 ng of the pGL4.36 vector, and 315 nL of fugene. The cell suspension was diluted with phenol red-free DMEM, and 10% dialyzed FBS and 1% GlutaMax were added, mixing with the transfection solution to achieve a cell density of 444,444 cells / mL. This diluted cell suspension was seeded at a volume of 90 μL (40,000 cells / well) into 96-well plates and incubated for 24 h. 10 μL of drug solution (including serially diluted compounds or DMSO) was then added, and the plates were incubated for 30 min. 10 nL of DHT (final concentration 1.5 nM) was added to each well of the plate, and the plates were incubated at 37°C with 5% CO2. After 24 hours of incubation, 100 μL of Steady-Glo was added to each well of the plate, the plate was shaken at room temperature for 20 minutes, and the plate was read on Envision. IC 50 Defined as the drug concentration that causes 50% inhibition of luciferase expression, determined by dose-response curves.
[0481] Using enzalutamide, a second-generation AR antagonist, as a positive control, the AR antagonistic activities of representative compounds are shown in Table 1:
[0482] Table 1. AR antagonistic activity of representative compounds
[0483]
[0484] Table 1 shows that the compounds of this invention have excellent AR antagonistic activity and can antagonize / block the AR receptor signaling pathway. The AR antagonistic activities of the representative compounds 34, 33, 37, 13, and 14 were 6.2, 3.6, 1.9, 1.8, and 1.8 times higher than those of the control enzalutamide, respectively.
[0485] 2. In vitro AR degradation activity test
[0486] LNCaP cells (prostate cancer cells) were cultured in RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) at 5% CO2 and 37°C. Cells were then digested with trypsin and cell density was counted using an automated cell counter. The cell suspension was diluted to the desired density in growth medium. The cell suspension was then seeded at 100 μL into 96-well plates and incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 24 hours. The compound was then diluted 200-fold with DMSO or 3-fold with culture medium, and 50 μL of the compound solution was transferred to each well and incubated at 37°C for 24 hours. After 24 hours of incubation, the cell lysate was washed three times with DPBS, and 100 μL of 1x lysis buffer was added to each well. The plates were incubated on ice for 30 minutes, and the supernatant was collected. Proteins in the cell lysate samples were quantified and then diluted to the desired concentration. Add 100 μL of cell lysate sample to the appropriate wells, seal with tape and press firmly onto the top of the microplate, and incubate at 37°C for 2 hours. Discard the plate contents and wash four times with 1x wash buffer, 200 μL per well each time. Next, add 100 μL of reconstituted detection antibody, seal with tape, and incubate at 37°C for 1 hour. Repeat the aspiration / washing steps, adding 100 μL of recombinant HRP-Linked secondary antibody to each well, sealing with tape, and incubating at 37°C for 30 minutes. Repeat the aspiration / washing steps again, adding 100 μL of substrate solution to each well, incubating at 37°C for 10 minutes, and finally adding 100 μL of stop solution to each well. Gently tap the plate to ensure thorough mixing and record OD at 450 nm.
[0487] Degradation rate (%) = (OD450_max - OD450_sample) / (OD450_max - OD450_min) × 100. Plot the value using GraphPad Prism 5 software and calculate the IC using SPSS software. 50 .
[0488] Since enzalutamide only possesses AR antagonistic activity and not AR degradation activity, while Galeterone (CAS: 851983-85-2), which has the same steroidal structure as the compound of this invention, has been used in clinical trials for the treatment of CRPC. Galeterone has a triple mechanism of action: CYP17A1 enzyme inhibition, AR degradation, and antagonism (J.Med.Chem. 2015, 58, 2077-2087). Therefore, using Galeterone as a positive control, the AR degradation activity of the representative compound of this invention was tested, and the results are shown in Table 2:
[0489] Table 2. AR degradation activity of representative compounds
[0490]
[0491] Table 2 shows that the steroidal compounds of this invention exhibit excellent in vitro AR degradation activity, significantly superior to the control drug Galeterone, with varying degrees of improvement ranging from 2.4 to 8.1 times. Among them, compounds 33, 36, 35, and 37 showed improvements of 8.1, 7.6, 6.7, and 6.2 times compared to Galeterone, respectively.
[0492] 3. In vitro LNCaP (hormone-sensitive prostate cancer) cell proliferation inhibition test
[0493] LNCaP cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) at 37°C and 5% CO2. Cells were then digested with trypsin and cell density was counted using an automated cell counter. The cell suspension was diluted to the desired density in growth medium. The cell suspension was then seeded into 96-well plates at 100 μL each, and the plates were incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 24 hours. 10 μL of aliquots of the drug solution (including 3-fold serially diluted compounds or DMSO) were added to each well, and the plates were incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 6 days. The assay plates were equilibrated to room temperature before measurement. 40 μL of the drug solution was added to each well. Reagents. Mix on an orbital oscillator for 2 minutes to induce cell lysis. Incubate at room temperature for 60 minutes to stabilize the luminescence signal. Read the plate on the Envision plate. IC 50 Defined as the drug concentration that causes 50% inhibition of cell growth, determined by dose-response curves.
[0494] Using abiraterone and enzalutamide, currently used clinically to treat advanced prostate cancer, as positive control drugs, the anti-LNCaP prostate cancer cell proliferation activity of the representative compound of this invention was determined, and the results are shown in Table 3:
[0495] Table 3. Anti-LNCaP cell proliferation activity of representative compounds
[0496]
[0497] Table 3 shows that the test results indicate that the compounds of this invention exhibit excellent anti-prostate cancer cell proliferation activity (IC50). 50 Its antitumor activity is significantly better than that of abiraterone, with a substantial increase of 3.0-15.8 times compared to the latter; among them, compounds 14, 17, 37, and 18 have increased by 15.8, 8.8, 8.6, and 7.9 times compared to abiraterone, respectively.
[0498] The most significant characteristic of this patented compound compared to enzalutamide is its antitumor efficacy (maximum inhibitory activity) is approximately twice as high. This is attributed to the compound's strong AR degradation / downregulation ability, while enzalutamide lacks AR degradation activity. Compounds 14, 16-19, and 37 exhibit significantly better antitumor activity and efficacy than enzalutamide, while compounds 13, 24, and 33 have comparable antitumor activity to enzalutamide but significantly superior antitumor efficacy.
[0499] Therefore, the steroidal compounds of the present invention have significantly superior antitumor activity compared to existing AR antagonists or androgen synthase inhibitors.
[0500] 4. Mutant AR antagonistic activity test
[0501] First-generation AR antagonists such as flutamide and bicalutamide, and second-generation AR antagonists such as enzalutamide and apatamide, all develop acquired / secondary resistance after a period of clinical treatment due to mutations in the AR ligand-binding domain. The compounds of this invention, possessing unique dual degradation / antagonistic functions, still exhibit strong antagonistic activity against various mutated AR receptors, and will remain effective for clinically resistant tumor patients to drugs such as enzalutamide.
[0502] HEK293 cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% GlutaMax at 37°C with 5% CO2. The day before transfection, the medium was replaced with DMEM containing 10% dialyzed FBS and 1% GlutaMax. The androgen-responsive reporter gene construct (pGL 4.36) encoding AR mutants AR (F876L), AR (T877A), or AR (W741L) was incubated in OptiMEM using Lipofectamine 2000 at room temperature for 15 minutes. The cell suspension was diluted with seeding medium, and the transfection reagent was transferred to a concentration of 500,000 cells / mL. 90 μL of the cell suspension was then seeded into each well of the assay plate. The compound was prepared the next day: starting at 8 mM, 3-fold serial dilutions were performed with DMSO for a total of 8 spots, and then 500 nmol was transferred to the compound plate using an Echo assay. The compound was then diluted 10-fold to a final concentration using 40 μL of culture medium, and 10 μL was transferred to a cell plate and incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes. Next, 10 nL of DHT, with a final concentration of 10 nM, was transferred to each well of the assay plate using TECAN. After 24 hours of incubation, 100 μL of Steady-Glo assay plates were used, and readings were taken on an Envision. Data were identified and analyzed using a GraphPad Prism.
[0503] For the W741L and T877A mutations, the second-generation AR antagonist enzalutamide was used as a positive control. For the F876L mutation, enzalutamide showed agonistic activity. The test results are shown in Table 4.
[0504] Table 4. Antagonistic activity of representative compounds against mutant AR
[0505]
[0506] Table 4 shows that the compounds of this invention exhibit excellent antagonistic activity against the major mutant AR types observed clinically: for the W741L mutation, compound 35 showed a 4.0-fold increase in activity compared to enzalutamide; for the T877A mutation, compound 33 showed a 1.4-fold increase compared to enzalutamide; and for the F876L mutation, which is resistant to the second-generation AR antagonists enzalutamide and apatamide, the compounds of this invention all showed excellent antagonistic activity. This indicates that the compounds of this invention can treat prostate cancer resistant to existing first- and second-generation AR antagonists.
[0507] 5. Proliferative activity of drug-resistant cells (22RV1)
[0508] Another major form of acquired / secondary resistance to AR is the expression of the AR-V7 scission variant. Approximately 50% of patients treated with enzalutamide or abiraterone express this variant. The ligand-binding domain of this AR scission variant is completely lost, preventing all current AR antagonists from binding to AR and exerting their effects, leading to secondary resistance or natural resistance inactivation. Since the steroidal compounds of this invention possess excellent AR-degrading activity, they can also degrade AR scission variants, thus addressing the problem of resistance to scission variants.
[0509] Using enzalutamide, apatamide, and dalotamide—all commercially available second-generation AR antagonists—as controls, the antiproliferative activity of the compounds of this invention against 22RV1 prostate cancer cells expressing the AR-V7 splicing variant was tested. The experimental procedure was basically the same as that for LNCaP cells, and the results are shown in Table 5.
[0510] Table 5. Antiproliferative activity of representative compounds against 22RV1 cells
[0511]
[0512] Table 5 shows that, as expected, enzalutamide, apatamide, and darotamide had no activity against tumor cells expressing AR splice variants, while the steroidal compounds of the present invention exhibited excellent anti-proliferative activity against 22RV1 prostate cancer cells and can be used for the treatment of patients resistant to AR splice variants.
[0513] The results of experiments 1-5 above demonstrate that the compounds of this invention exhibit strong antitumor activity against both existing AR antagonists (first and second generation) and abiraterone, regardless of whether the cancer is sensitive or resistant. This allows for the treatment of prostate cancer at all stages, including early-stage hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, CRPC, and drug-resistant CRPC. This will provide an unprecedentedly powerful therapeutic approach for prostate cancer and other diseases related to the AR signaling pathway.
[0514] 6. In vivo metabolism of the compounds of this invention
[0515] Male SD rats were randomly assigned to 6 groups of 3 rats each. One day prior to drug administration, the rats were fasted for 12–14 hours but allowed free access to water. The test sample was then administered via gavage at a concentration of 10 mg / kg in a solvent of 5% DMSO + 30% PEG400 + 65% (0.5% MC). Four hours after administration, the rats were fed. Blood samples (0.10 mL) were collected via the orbital cavity at 0, 15, 30 min, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 h, and were anticoagulated with EDTAK2. After collection, the blood samples were placed on ice and centrifuged within 30 minutes to separate the plasma (centrifugation conditions: 5000 rpm, 10 minutes, 4°C). Take 50.0 μL of plasma sample (taken from -80℃ and allowed to thaw naturally at room temperature, then vortex for 30 seconds) into a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube, add 500 μL of internal standard solution (methanol (TEDIA, HPLC grade), acetonitrile (TEDIA, HPLC grade), formic acid (FA, ACROSORGANICS, HPLC grade), and laboratory-prepared ultrapure water (100.0 ng / mL). -1 The sample was vortexed for 60 seconds and then centrifuged for 3 minutes (12000 rpm). 100 μL of the supernatant was transferred to a 96-well plate containing an equal volume of water, vortexed to mix, and then injected for LC-MS / MS analysis at a volume of 10 μL. The data acquisition and control system software was Analyst 1.5.1 (Applied Biosystem). The peak integration method was automatic integration; the ratio of the sample peak area to the internal standard peak area was used as an indicator and regressed against the sample concentration.
[0516] The pharmacokinetic parameters of the representative compound of this invention were tested in male SD rats after oral administration of 10 mg / kg using the conventional methods described above, and the pharmacokinetic characteristics of the compound in rats were investigated. The test results are shown in Table 6.
[0517] Table 6. Results of pharmacokinetic activity assays in rats (PO: 10 mg / kg)
[0518]
[0519] In vivo pharmacokinetic studies in rats showed that, compared to the steroidal compound abiraterone, this class of compounds exhibited superior pharmacokinetic properties and drug-likeness. Compared to abiraterone (ABT)C... max It increased by 32-133 times, and drug exposure increased by more than 138 times. Its metabolic properties are significantly better than abiraterone, and it has very rational drug-like properties.
[0520] 7. In vivo anti-androgen activity
[0521] The Hershberger assay was used to detect the in vivo anti-androgen signaling activity of the compounds of the present invention. In this assay, pre-pubescent castrated male Sprague-Dawley rats were administered the compounds (14, 33, and 37) of the present invention in the presence of 0.4 mg / kg testosterone propionate (TP), and the weight of androgen-dependent organs was measured. Administration continued for 10 days, with measurements taken 24 hours after the last administration. The degree of antagonism of AR and subsequent organ growth inhibition were assessed by comparison with castration controls. The test compounds were administered orally at 20 mg / kg QD, and endpoint assessment was performed by changes in weight of two androgen-sensitive organs (ASOs): the seminal vesicle with fluid and coagulated glands (SVCG) and the ventral prostate (VP). Enzalutamide (ENZ) was used as a positive control. The results are as follows. Figure 2 As shown.
[0522] In vivo Hershberger assays showed that compounds 14, 33, and 37 significantly inhibited the growth of androgen-dependent organs compared to the castration group, and all exhibited activity comparable to enzalutamide. This demonstrates that the compounds of this invention can effectively antagonize the androgen receptor signaling pathway in vivo, making them suitable for the treatment of prostate cancer.
[0523] 8. The compounds of this invention inhibit the expression activity of membrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) and angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2).
[0524] To verify whether AR antagonists or AR degraders can effectively downregulate the expression of TMPRSS2 and ACE2 proteins for the treatment of COVID-19, A549 lung cancer cells were used. Logarithmic growth phase cells were collected, counted, and resuspended in complete culture medium to adjust the cell concentration to 3 × 10⁻⁶. 5Cells were seeded at 1 mL / well in 12-well plates, with 1 mL of cell culture medium added to each well. Cells were cultured at 37°C, 100% relative humidity, and 5% CO2 for 24 hours. The culture medium in the plates containing A549 cells was then discarded, and the cells were washed once with PBS. The patented compound, the positive control drug proxalutamide (10 μM), and 1 nM DHT were mixed with the culture medium and added to the plates. The plates were then incubated at 37°C, 100% relative humidity, and 5% CO2 for 48 hours. After 48 hours, cells were collected, and RNA was extracted from A549 cells using an RNA extraction kit. cDNA was obtained by reverse transcription according to the reverse transcription kit instructions. The effects of different candidate compounds on the mRNA expression levels of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 proteins in A549 cells were detected by qPCR. The results are shown in Table 7.
[0525] Table 7. mRNA expression levels of the compounds in A549 cells for ACE2 and TMPRSS2 proteins.
[0526]
[0527] Table 7 shows that in A549 cells, compounds 21 and 35 significantly downregulated the expression of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 proteins, and were superior to the control drug proxalutamide. In vitro protein expression experiments confirmed that the compounds of this invention can effectively inhibit the AR-TMPRSS2 / ACE2 signaling pathway and can be used for the treatment of COVID-19 patients.
[0528] All the above test results indicate that the compounds of this invention will be a new generation of anti-prostate cancer drugs with both AR antagonism and degradation mechanisms of action, exhibiting stronger anti-tumor activity. Compared with single-function AR antagonists or androgen synthase inhibitors, they show better efficacy and will have better effects on clinical CRPC patients and even prostate cancer patients at all stages. In the future, they can be better used for the treatment of diseases related to the AR signaling pathway.
