Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of pharmacy, and particularly relates to an amino lipid compound, a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Gene drugs are to deliver genes with specific genetic information to target cells by artificial means, and the expressed target proteins have the effect of adjusting, treating or even curing the diseases caused by congenital or acquired genetic defects, or the gene series can interfere or regulate the expression of related genes to achieve clinical therapeutic effect. Nucleic acids and cell membranes both have negative charges, and naked nucleic acids are difficult to be directly introduced into cells and are easily degraded by nucleic acid degradation enzymes in the cytoplasm, so that the effect of gene introduction and gene therapy cannot be achieved, and therefore external force or carriers are needed to realize gene delivery.

[0003] Gene vectors are generally divided into viral vectors and non-viral vectors. Viral vectors have high transfection efficiency in vivo and in vitro, but they also have many defects, such as high toxicity, strong immune response, small gene capacity, poor targeting, complex preparation process, etc. Non-viral vectors have attracted more and more companies to invest in research and development due to their easy preparation, transportation, storage, safety, effectiveness, and non-immunogenicity.

[0004] Lipid nanoparticles (LNP) are currently the mainstream non-viral vectors, and are often used in vaccines because they are easily absorbed by antigen-presenting cells. In the prior art, a variety of compounds for lipid nanoparticles have been reported, but in actual use, it is found that when these compounds are used for vaccine delivery, the delivery efficiency is low, the drug stability is poor, and there are also problems of long elimination phase half-life, high toxicity, low safety, etc., which are not conducive to clinical application and cannot meet the needs of modern vaccine preparations.

[0005] For example, the commercially available cationic liposome compound MC3 has insufficient protein expression level and low antibody production level when actually used for vaccine delivery. In addition, the literature "Pharmacokinetics of Patisiran, the First Approved RNA Interference Therapy in Patients With Hereditary Transthyretin-Mediated Amyloidosis" Xiaoping Zhang et al., The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology 2020, 60(5) 573-585, reports that the elimination phase half-life of Patisiran in the clinical phase II study is as long as 14.6 to 28.7 days.

[0006]

[0007] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a substance having a strong delivery capacity, good stability, a moderate elimination half-life of the phase and / or high safety (i.e. a low incidence of adverse reactions) for use in intracellular delivery of a therapeutic agent. SUMMARY

[0008] Through extensive research, the inventors of the present application surprisingly found that an amino lipid compound having a cycloalkyl structural unit and further having another substituent at the meta position of the amine substituent of the cycloalkyl group achieves the following functions: good delivery capacity, good stability, high safety, and can be used to deliver a bioactive agent (e.g. a nucleic acid) into a cell to increase the protein expression level thereof.

[0009] The present application thus provides an amino lipid compound having a cycloalkyl structural unit and further having another substituent at the meta position of the amine substituent of the cycloalkyl group. The amino lipid compound according to the present application remains stable during in vivo circulation, can be rapidly degraded in endosomes / lysosomes, and has significantly enhanced delivery efficiency.

[0010] The cycloalkyl structural unit and the other substituent at the meta position of the amine substituent of the cycloalkyl group in the amino lipid compound according to the present application allow the compound or a lipid nanoparticle containing the same to have good bioactivity, a high protein expression level, significant immunological activity, and good stability when used as a vaccine carrier, and can be stored, transported and used at room temperature with a low incidence of adverse reactions.

[0011] The present application also provides a method for preparing the amino lipid compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof, which has readily available raw materials, mild reaction conditions, good reaction selectivity, high yield, low requirements for equipment and simple operation.

[0432] The lipids used in the biological experiments of the present application are MC3, SM102, and ALC-0315, the structures of which are as follows:

[0433]

[0434] Among them, MC3 and ALC-0315 can be purchased or prepared according to the known technology in the art.

[0435] Preparation of lipid nanoparticles:

[0436] Preparation method one: the amino lipid compound described in the present application is mixed with DOPE, cholesterol, and PEG2000-DMG in a molar ratio of 45:10:42.5:2.5, and dissolved in anhydrous ethanol. A microsyringe pump is used to control the ratio of the ethanol solution to a sodium acetate solution (50 mM, pH = 4.0) to be 1:3, and a crude solution of the lipid nanoparticles is prepared in a microfluidic chip. The solution is then dialyzed in a dialysis box (Fisher, MWCO 20,000) in 1X PBS at 4°C for 6 h, and filtered through a 0.22 μm microporous filter before use.

[0437] Preparation method two: the amino lipid compound is mixed with DSPC, cholesterol, and PEG2000-DMG in a molar ratio of 50:10:38.5:1.5, and the preparation method is the same as method one.

[0438] The lipid nanoparticles prepared according to the preparation method one or two described above are used in the biological experiments for evaluating the in vivo delivery performance of luciferase mRNA (Fluc mRNA) described below. The mass ratio of the amino lipid compound in the lipid nanoparticles obtained in the preparation method one to the luciferase mRNA is about 10:1, and the nanoparticles are administered subcutaneously. The lipid nanoparticles obtained in the preparation method two are administered by tail vein and intramuscular injection.

[0439] Test example 1: evaluation of the in vivo delivery performance of luciferase mRNA of the lipid nanoparticles prepared from the amino lipid compound described in the present application Animal preparation: 6-week-old female BALB / c mice weighing about 20 g are selected, and the mice are raised in a SPF-level feeding room. The animal experiments are strictly conducted in accordance with the guidelines of the national health organization and the requirements of animal ethics.

[0440] In vivo delivery: 9 mice are randomly selected in each group, and the mice are injected with the lipid nanoparticles at a dose of 0.5 mg / kg by subcutaneous injection, intramuscular injection, and tail vein injection (three mice for each administration method). After 12 h, 200 μL of 10 mg / mL D-luciferin potassium salt is injected into each mouse through the tail vein, and the mice are placed under an in vivo imaging system (IVIS-200, Xenogen) after 10 min. The total fluorescence intensity of each mouse is observed, and a photograph is taken. The expression intensity of Fluc mRNA delivered by the representative amino lipid compound by the three administration methods is shown in Tables 1-3. MC3 is used as a control. SM102 is a comparative compound.

[0450] Test Example 2: Ovalbumin mRNA in vivo delivery and immune performance evaluation of lipid nanoparticles prepared from aminolipid compounds according to the present application

[0451] Preparation of lipid nanoparticles:

[0452] Preparation method: The aminolipid compound of formula (I) according to the present application was mixed with DOPE, cholesterol and PEG2000-DMG in a molar ratio of 50:10:38.5:1.5 and dissolved in anhydrous ethanol. Ovalbumin mRNA (OVA mRNA) was dissolved in sodium acetate solution (50 mM, pH = 4.0). Using a microsyringe pump, the ratio of ethanol solution to sodium acetate solution (50 mM, pH = 4.0) was controlled at 1:3, and the crude solution of lipid nanoparticles was prepared in a microfluidic chip. Then, dialysis was performed using a dialysis cassette (Fisher, MWCO 20,000) in 1X PBS at 4°C for 6 h, and the lipid nanoparticles were filtered using a 0.22 μm microporous filter before use.

[0453] The mass ratio of aminolipid compound to ovalbumin mRNA (OVA mRNA) in the obtained lipid nanoparticles was about 10:1.

[0454] Animal preparation: 6-week-old female BALB / c mice weighing about 20 g were selected, and the animal experiment was carried out in a SPF-grade feeding room in strict accordance with the guidelines of the national health agency and the requirements of animal ethics.

[0455] In vivo delivery: 3 mice were randomly selected from each group, and the lipid nanoparticles were injected into the leg muscles at a dose of 0.5 mg / kg (Day 0). After 7 days, the same amount was used for reinforcement (Day 7). On day 21, the blood was taken from the tail vein for serological analysis. MC3 was used as a control.

[0456] Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA): Flat-bottom 96-well plates (Nunc) were pre-coated with 0.5 μg of protein per well of OVA protein in 50 mM carbonate buffer (pH 9.6) overnight at 4°C, and then blocked with 5% glycine. Antisera were obtained from immunized animals and proteins were diluted to 10 2 diluted to 10 6 PBS-0.05% Tween (PBS-T), pH 7.4, and added to the wells and incubated at room temperature for 1 hour at 37°C. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG was labeled at a dilution of 1:10,000 in PBS-T-1% BSA. After addition of the HRP substrate, the optical density was determined at one wavelength and the absorbance at 450 nm was measured in an ELISA reader (Bio-Rad).

[0457] The results of the test are shown in Table 1. Figure 1 It is noted that Lipid 7 (compound 7) has a protein expression level comparable to that of SM102, but can elicit a stronger immune response.

[0458] It can be seen that the amino lipid compound provided by the present application has excellent immune activity and also has a strong adjuvant effect.

[0459] Test Example 3: In vivo delivery and immune performance evaluation of an influenza mRNA vaccine prepared from the amino lipid compound of the present application Preparation method: The amino lipid compound of formula (I) of the present application, DSPC, cholesterol, and PEG2000-DMG were mixed and dissolved in anhydrous ethanol at a molar ratio of 45:10:42.5:2.5. The mRNA expressing influenza was dissolved in a sodium acetate solution (50 mM, pH = 4.0). Using a microsyringe pump, the ratio of the ethanol solution to the sodium acetate solution (50 mM, pH = 4.0) was controlled to be 1:3, and a crude solution of the lipid nanoparticles was prepared in a microfluidic chip. Then, the solution was dialyzed in a dialysis box (Fisher, MWCO 20,000) in 1X PBS at a controlled temperature of 4°C for 6 h, and filtered with a 0.22 μm microporous filter before use.

[0460] The mass ratio of the amino lipid compound to the influenza mRNA (OVA mRNA) in the obtained lipid nanoparticles was about 10:1.

[0461] Animal preparation: 6-week-old female BALB / c mice weighing about 20 g were selected, and the animal test was strictly performed in accordance with the guidelines of the national health organization and the requirements of animal ethics.

[0462] In vivo delivery: Three mice were randomly selected from each group and administered lipid nanoparticles subcutaneously via the back at a dose of 0.5 mg / kg (Day 0). A booster dose of the same amount was administered 7 days later (Day 7). Serological analysis was performed on tail vein blood samples on day 21. MC3 served as a control.

[0463] Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA): The assay method is as described in Example 2.

[0464] The test results are as follows Figure 2 As shown, the IgG antibody titer of the MC3 control group was the lowest, the IgG antibody titer of Lipid10 (compound 10) was comparable to that of SM102, while the IgG antibody titers of other compounds were significantly better than those of the control group. This also shows that the aminolipid compounds provided by the present invention have excellent immunomodulatory activity and a strong adjuvant effect.

[0465] Experimental Example 4: Stability Evaluation of Lipid Nanoparticles Prepared from the Aminolipid Compounds of the Present Invention Using Formulation Method 1

[0466] Preparation of lipid nanoparticles: LNPs were prepared using formulation method one for subcutaneous administration.

[0467] Characterization of lipid nanoparticles: The particle size and PDI of the prepared lipid nanoparticles were determined using a Nano-ZSZEN3600 (Malvern) microscope. 40 μL of LNP solution was used for particle size measurement, with three cycles of 30 s each.

[0468] Particle size was measured on the day of preparation (week 0), after storage at 25°C for one week (week 1), two weeks (week 2), and four weeks (week 4). The expression intensity of Fluc mRNA delivered subcutaneously was measured on the day of preparation (week 0) and four weeks (week 4). The experimental results are shown in Table 4.

[0469] Table 4: DLS characterization and subcutaneous expression of Fluc-mRNA of LNPs prepared from representative aminolipid compounds of the present invention.

[0470]

[0471] As can be seen from Table 4, at the test temperature of 25°C, in terms of particle size, the representative compounds 5, 6, 7, 9 and SM102 of the present application were all relatively uniform nanoparticles with a particle size of about 100 nm and a PDI of less than 0.1 on the day (week 0), and after 4 weeks of storage, the particle size of each of them increased, among which the particle size of SM102 increased by more than one time, from 120 to 245, while the particle size of the representative compounds 5, 6, 7, 9 of the present application did not increase significantly; in terms of PDI, after 4 weeks, the PDI of the representative compounds 5, 6, 7, 9 of the present application was less than 0.1, while the PDI of SM102 increased from 0.05 on the day (week 0) to 0.28 (week 4); in terms of Fluc expression, after 4 weeks, the Fluc expression of the representative compounds 5, 6, 7, 9 of the present application did not decrease significantly, while the Fluc expression of SM102 decreased significantly, from 2.1E+07 to 3.6E+06, thus it can be seen that the amino lipid compound described in the present application has excellent stability.

[0472] Test Example 5: Evaluation of the activity of the lipid nanoparticles prepared from the amino lipid compound described in the present application using preparation method two

[0473] Preparation of the lipid nanoparticles: LNP was prepared using preparation method two, and was administered by intramuscular injection.

[0474] The test method was the same as that of Test Example 1, and the test results are shown in Table 5:

[0475] Table 5: Expression intensity of Fluc mRNA delivered by intramuscular administration of the representative amino lipid compounds of the present application.

[0476]

[0477]

[0478] As can be seen from Table 5, in the case of the same other structural units, the expression intensity of Fluc mRNA is higher when the hydroxyl group on the cycloalkyl structural unit is located at the meta position of the amine substituent than when the hydroxyl group on the cycloalkyl structural unit is located at other substitution positions of the amine substituent. Specifically, for example, the expression intensity of Fluc mRNA of representative compound 6 of the present application is 1.2E+08; in contrast, the expression intensity of Fluc mRNA of comparative compound 2 (which differs from representative compound 6 of the present application only in that the hydroxyl group on the cycloalkyl structural unit is located at the ortho position of the amine substituent) is 2.8E+06; further, the expression intensity of Fluc mRNA of comparative compound 6 (which differs from representative compound 6 of the present application only in that the hydroxyl group on the cycloalkyl structural unit is located at a position two carbon atoms apart from the amine substituent) is 1.9E+07. The same conclusion can be seen between, for example, representative compound 7 of the present application and comparative compound 3 and comparative compound 7, between representative compound 8 of the present application and comparative compound 4 and comparative compound 8, and the like. Thus, in the case of the same other structural units, the activity performance of the lipid nanoparticle of the amino lipid compound containing a substituent on the cycloalkyl structural unit at the meta position of the amine substituent is the highest.

[0479] Test Example 6 Amino lipid compound targeting test mRNA lipid nanoparticle (LNP) preparation method: Lipid was mixed with DSPC, CHO-HP, M-DMG2000 in a molar ratio of 50:10:38.5:1.5 in anhydrous ethanol. The mRNA was dissolved in a sodium acetate solution (0.2M, pH=5.0). The preparation of each prescription sample was carried out using a microfluidic device (MPE-L2) and a chip (SN.000035) with a water phase: alcohol phase = 9ml / min: 3ml / min. The two phases were injected into the microfluidic chip according to the interface requirements for mixing, and the drug solution was then loaded into a 100KD dialysis bag, which was immersed in a beaker containing 1L of dialysis solution. The beaker was wrapped with aluminum foil and dialyzed at room temperature at a speed of 100rpm for 1h, and then the dialysis solution was replaced and dialyzed for another 1h.

[0480] Dialysis solution preparation: 1xPBS+8% sucrose solution: take 2 bags of 1xPBS powder into a beaker, dissolve with 2L DEPC water, continue to add 160g sucrose, mix well to get 1xPBS+8% sucrose solution.

[0481] The mass ratio of mRNA to lipid in the obtained lipid nanoparticles is about 1:10.

[0482] The preparation method of the foregoing mRNA lipid nanoparticle (LNP) preparation is adopted, wherein the mRNA is selected from an mRNA encoding a fluorescent protein, the Lipid is selected from compound (I-6-II), MC3 and SM102 respectively, and mRNA-LNP preparations containing compound (I-6-II), MC3 or SM102 respectively for encoding a fluorescent protein are prepared.

[0483] Test method:

[0484] Each test preparation is administered to mice by intramuscular injection, with 15ug of mRNA preparation sample injected into each animal. After 6 hours of injection, the mice are anesthetized by isoflurane inhalation, and 200ul of D-Luciferin (concentration 10mg / ml) luciferase imaging substrate is injected intraperitoneally. The animals are placed in a supine position, and at 10 minutes after injection of the substrate, the distribution and expression intensity of Luciferase in the mice are observed under the IVIS live imaging system. After live imaging of the animals injected intramuscularly, the animals are immediately dissected, and the fluorescence of the liver is observed rapidly after dissection.

[0485] The specific fluorescence intensity values are as follows:

[0486] mRNA-LNP preparation containing MC3 for encoding a fluorescent protein: 1.23E+05

[0487] mRNA-LNP preparation containing SM102 for encoding a fluorescent protein: 3.23E+06

[0488] mRNA-LNP preparation containing compound (I-6-II) for encoding a fluorescent protein: 2.49E+05

[0489] The test results are shown in Table 1. Figure 8 As shown in Table 1, when administered by intramuscular injection, the liver fluorescence intensity of the compound (I-6-II) group is significantly lower than that of SM102, the organ distribution of the mRNA encoding a fluorescent protein in the important organ liver is relatively low, and the local targeting effect is good, effectively reducing the risk of liver toxicity.

[0490] Test Example 7: Test of adverse reactions of amino lipid compounds by intramuscular injection

[0491] Preparation of mRNA-LNP preparation encoding S protein of novel coronavirus:

[0492] The mRNA lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulation was prepared using the method described in Experimental Example 6, wherein the mRNA was selected to encode the novel coronavirus S protein mRNA, and the lipids were selected from compound 6, compound (I-6-II), ALC-0315, and SM102, respectively, to prepare novel coronavirus S protein mRNA-LNP formulations containing compound 6, compound (I-6-II), ALC-0315, or SM102, respectively.

[0493] The sequence encoding the novel coronavirus S protein mRNA is obtained by replacing all uracil (u) in SEQ ID NO.1 with N1-methylpseuuridine. It should be noted that, according to WIPO standard ST.26 for nucleotide or amino acid sequence listings, t (thymine) in the RNA sequence SEQ ID NO.1 is actually u (uracil).

[0494] Test method:

[0495] SD rats were randomly divided into four groups (half male and half female): a high-dose group of compound 6 (100 μg mRNA / rat), a high-dose group of compound (I-6-II) (100 μg mRNA / rat), a high-dose group of ALC-0315 (cationic lipids from Pfizer vaccine BNT162-b2) (100 μg mRNA / rat), and a high-dose group of SM-102 (cationic lipids from Moderna vaccine mRNA-1273) (100 μg mRNA / rat). Three rats per group (sex) were administered the drugs via intramuscular injection once a week for three consecutive weeks. Clinical observation was conducted to detect abnormalities such as swelling at the injection site.

[0496] The test results are as follows Figure 9 As shown, from Figure 9 It can be seen that, compared with the cationic lipid components of commercially available mRNA vaccines at the same level, compound (I-6-II) significantly reduced or decreased the number of severe swelling and moderate claudication at the injection site, and therefore can be considered to have higher safety.

[0497] Experimental Example 8: Toxicity Kinetics

[0498] Preparation of empty liposome formulations:

[0499] The alcohol phase was obtained by taking 1.9078 g of compound I-6-II, 0.3985 g of DSPC, 0.7575 g of CH0-HP and 0.1972 g of PEG-DMG (average molecular weight 2000) in a molar ratio of 49.5:10:39:1.5, dissolving them in anhydrous ethanol, and making up to 237.5 ml. The microfluidic device (MPE-L2) was used to mix and encapsulate in acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer (0.2 mol / L, pH = 5) as the water phase, with a volume ratio of water phase to alcohol phase of 3:1. The encapsulated drug solution was subjected to ultrafiltration replacement under the parameters of TMP of 0.2 bar and liquid flow rate of 300 ml / min, and the dialysis solution used for replacement contained 8 mg / ml of sodium chloride, 0.2 mg / ml of potassium chloride, 0.2 mg / ml of potassium dihydrogen phosphate, 1.15 mg / ml of disodium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate and 80 mg / ml of sucrose. After replacement, sterilization filtration was performed to obtain the I-6-II empty liposome preparation.

[0500] Test method:

[0501] The animal experiment was divided into 5 groups (5 animals / sex / group), and the grouping and dosing were as follows: negative control group (0 dose / animal), empty liposome low-dose group (1 dose / animal) and empty liposome high-dose group (4 doses / animal). The animals in each group were injected intramuscularly once every 2 weeks, for a total of 3 times, i.e., D1 (the first day of administration), D15 (the 15th day after administration) and D29 (the 29th day after administration).

[0502] The animal experiment was divided into 5 groups (5 animals / sex / group), and the grouping and dosing were as follows: negative control group (0 dose / animal), empty liposome low-dose group (1 dose / animal) and empty liposome high-dose group (4 doses / animal). The animals in each group were injected intramuscularly once every 2 weeks, for a total of 3 times, i.e., D1 (the first day of administration), D15 (the 15th day after administration) and D29 (the 29th day after administration).

[0503] The negative control group collected animal blood samples before and 4 hours after the first (D1) and last (D29) administration; the empty liposome group collected animal blood samples at the time points of before administration, 15 min, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 24 h, 32 h and 48 h after administration of the first (D1) and last (D29) administration, respectively. The content of compound I-6-II in the plasma of cynomolgus monkeys was detected to investigate the exposure of compound I-6-II in cynomolgus monkeys after administration of the animals in each group.

[0504] The main TK parameters of compound I-6-II in the animals in the empty liposome low-dose and high-dose groups after the first administration (D1) and the last administration (D29) are shown in Table 6:

[0505] Table 6 Major TK parameters of compound I-6-II in cynomolgus monkeys in empty liposome low and high dose groups

[0506]

[0507] The test data show that:

[0508] No I-6-II liposome was detected in the plasma samples of the negative control group animals at the first (D1) and last (D29) time points.

[0509] As can be seen from Table 6, compound I-6-II can be rapidly cleared in cynomolgus monkeys, and the plasma drug concentration half-life is 4.68-6.45 hours; compared with the first administration (D1), the Cmax ratio (D29 / D1) of compound I-6-II in the empty liposome group was between 0.58 and 0.84, and the AUC last ratio (D29 / D1) was between 0.68 and 1.02, indicating that after 4 weeks of continuous administration (a total of 3 times), there was no accumulation of compound I-6-II in cynomolgus monkeys.
