Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medical technology, and relates to a rapamycin prodrug and a nano preparation derived therefrom, and applications thereof in preventing or treating transplant rejection, autoimmune diseases, allergic reactions (such as food allergic reactions), and immune responses to therapeutic agents. Background Art
[0002] Rejection of transplanted tissue, autoimmune diseases, allergic reactions (such as food allergies), and immune responses to therapeutic agents are all pathological conditions that cause immune rejection due to the antigenicity of certain biomolecules.
[0003] The rejection reaction of transplanted tissues is that after the recipient undergoes allogeneic tissue or organ transplantation, the foreign tissue or organ transplant is recognized by the recipient's immune system as a "foreign component", which initiates an immunological response to attack, destroy and eliminate the transplant. The mechanism of rejection reaction mainly includes two aspects: cellular immunity and humoral immunity. The most common acute rejection reaction in clinical practice is mainly mediated by cellular immunity, while hyperacute rejection and chronic rejection reactions are mainly mediated by humoral immunity. Graft-versus-host reaction is a reaction caused by the recognition of host antigens by specific lymphocytes in the graft. This reaction not only leads to transplant failure, but can also cause serious consequences for the recipient.
[0004] Autoimmune diseases are disease states caused by the body's immune system's immune response to its own components. The result of the body's immune response to foreign antigens is usually the elimination of the antigens, but when the body's immune response occurs to its own cell or tissue antigens, its own cells or tissues are not easily completely eliminated by the effector cells of the immune system but are constantly attacked, resulting in the body entering a disease state.
[0005] Hypersensitivity: also known as allergy, refers to an abnormal specific immune response characterized by physiological dysfunction or tissue cell damage when the body is stimulated by certain antigens.
[0006] Therapeutic treatments, such as protein or enzyme replacement therapies, often result in an unwanted immune response to the specific therapy. In this case, immune cells will recognize the therapeutic agent as foreign and attempt to neutralize or destroy it, just as they attempt to destroy infectious agents such as bacteria and viruses. This unwanted immune response can neutralize the effectiveness of the therapy or result in an allergic reaction to the therapy.
[0007] At present, although these adverse immune responses can be reduced by using immunosuppressants or regulators, traditional immunosuppressants are broadly effective and the use of broadly effective immunosuppressants may produce serious side effects such as tumors, infections, nephrotoxicity and metabolic disorders. Therefore, the development of new therapies will be beneficial.
[0008] Rapamycin (RAPA) is a macrolide drug with immunosuppressive, anti-proliferative, anti-angiogenic, anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties. It is often used clinically to prevent transplant rejection. RAPA can block the calcium-dependent and calcium-independent signal transduction pathways of T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes, thereby achieving immunosuppression. In addition, rapamycin also has the effect of inducing antigen presenting cells (APCs) to transform into a tolerant type and selectively increasing the number and function of Tregs.
[0009] Nanomedicines have the natural ability to be taken up by APCs or other immune cells, and can be used to deliver immunosuppressive drugs and / or antigens, adjuvants or diagnostic agents, or (and) to carry out targeted modification, reduce or eliminate the antigenicity of related biomolecules, thereby achieving the prevention and treatment of transplant rejection, autoimmune diseases, allergic reactions (such as food allergies), and reducing the immune response to therapeutic agents and improving the efficacy of related therapeutic agents. The application of rapamycin prodrugs and their derivative nanoformulations in these treatments has not been reported in the prior art. Summary of the invention
[0010] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a rapamycin prodrug and a nanoformulation derived therefrom and applications thereof in preventing or treating transplant rejection, autoimmune diseases, allergic reactions (such as food allergies), and immune responses to therapeutic agents.

[0067] The prodrugs in the above-mentioned pharmaceutical preparations can also be mixed with other drugs to prepare corresponding preparations, that is, in one embodiment, one or more of the above antigens and the rapamycin prodrug are co-loaded to obtain a nanoformulation; in another embodiment, one or more of the above antigens and the rapamycin prodrug described herein are respectively loaded into different nanoformulations; in another embodiment, one or more of the above antigens are co-administered with a loaded rapamycin prodrug nanoformulation; according to the embodiment, such methods involve administration before or after exposure to the antigen. In some embodiments, administration before exposure exerts a preventive effect, which in some embodiments substantially avoids or significantly reduces the immune response.
[0068] In one aspect, a method is provided, comprising providing a rapamycin prodrug or a prodrug and a pharmaceutical formulation thereof as described herein, wherein in certain embodiments, the rapamycin prodrug is attached to a nanocarrier to obtain a nanoformulation, and administering the therapeutic macromolecule and the synthetic nanoformulation to a subject simultaneously. In one embodiment, the simultaneous administration is performed according to a regimen that has been shown to reduce anti-therapeutic biopharmaceutical antibody responses and increase the efficacy of the therapeutic drug when administered simultaneously with an immunosuppressant, compared to the therapeutic drug administered without the immunosuppressant.

[0071] In one embodiment, the present invention provides a method for treating alopecia areata (AA), which is a common autoimmune, scarless skin disease that usually causes hair loss on the scalp and other parts of the body (such as eyebrows, eyelashes, etc.), and sometimes even causes nail dents or roughness, which not only affects the patient's aesthetics, but also has a negative impact on the patient's mental health and quality of life. Alopecia areata can occur at any age and has no obvious gender differences, and its etiology is complex, related to genetic, immune, psychological and other factors. The prevalence in my country is about 0.27%, and the lifetime prevalence is about 2%, and it shows a trend of increasing year by year. This disease manifests as varying degrees of hair loss, from focal patchy shedding to the entire scalp and body hair shedding, such as alopecia totalis (AT) and alopecia universalis (AU). Although this disease has the nature of self-healing, it is still difficult to treat and has a high recurrence rate for some patients. In the treatment guidelines that have been published, local corticosteroid administration and contact immunotherapy are mainly recommended as first-line treatments for alopecia areata, depending on age, disease severity, etc. Although topical corticosteroid therapy is effective in the advanced stage, it has a large adverse reaction and is prone to recurrence when used for a long time, so it is difficult to treat severe alopecia areata. In the embodiment, a rapamycin prodrug self-assembled nanoparticle loaded with diphenylcyclopropenone is provided for treating alopecia areata.
[0072] In one embodiment, a rapamycin prodrug and an antigen co-loaded nanoparticle are provided for the treatment of celiac disease. Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disease caused by abnormal sensitivity of the immune system to gluten. In patients with celiac disease, exposure to gluten leads to activation of gluten-specific T cells, ultimately leading to immune-mediated intestinal damage; CD often causes some gastrointestinal symptoms, which may be mild, not obvious, or even completely asymptomatic. People with gastrointestinal symptoms often have a certain degree of the following conditions: diarrhea, foul-smelling stools, abdominal discomfort, flatulence, bloating, mucus or fat droplets in the stool. At the same time, CD often has some non-gastrointestinal symptoms, including some subtle symptoms, such as fatigue, unintentional weight loss, joint pain, neurological symptoms: headache, peripheral neuropathy (tingling / numbness in the hands or feet), psychiatric symptoms: depression, anxiety, itchy rash and other complications. Because gluten-specific T cells are abnormally activated, ultimately leading to immune-mediated intestinal damage, treatment methods that make T cells tolerant to gluten have the potential to cure celiac disease.
[0073] In one embodiment, a method for manufacturing a drug intended to reduce the response of anti-therapeutic macromolecule antibodies is provided. In one embodiment, the drug includes an immunosuppressant and / or a therapeutic macromolecule, wherein the pharmacodynamically effective dose of the therapeutic macromolecule can be reduced. In another embodiment of any one of the manufacturing methods provided herein, the immunosuppressant is attached to a synthetic nanocarrier to obtain a nanoformulation.
[0074] A method is provided, including providing a therapeutic biopharmaceutical that causes or is expected to cause anti-therapeutic macromolecule antibodies after repeated administration in one or more subjects; and providing an immunosuppressant dose, wherein the immunosuppressant dose is attached to a nanocarrier to obtain a nanoformulation. In some embodiments, the method includes repeatedly administering a therapeutic macromolecule to a subject at the same dose or a lower dose while using an immunosuppressant. In some embodiments, the simultaneous administration regimen has been shown to maintain the pharmacodynamic effect of the therapeutic macromolecule at the pharmacodynamic effect of two or more doses of the therapeutic macromolecule on the subject.
[0075] In one embodiment of any of the methods provided above, the method further includes determining a regimen. In another embodiment of any of the methods provided, the method further includes determining a pharmacologically effective dose, such as a reduced or enhanced pharmacologically effective dose. In another embodiment of any of the methods provided, the method further includes evaluating the pharmacodynamic effect of the subject before and / or after administration. In another embodiment of any of the methods provided, simultaneous administration is repeated one or more times. In another embodiment of any of the methods described above, the administration is intravenous, intraperitoneal or subcutaneous. In another embodiment of any of the methods provided, the subject is at risk of an anti-therapeutic macromolecule antibody reaction. In another embodiment of any of the methods provided, the subject is a human or model animal in which an anti-therapeutic macromolecule antibody reaction is expected.

[0192] The results are as follows Figure 21-1 and Figure 21-2 As shown in the figure, under the treatment of each preparation, the low-dose rapamycin prodrug (0.05 mg / kg) of Example 2 and the prodrug nanoparticles co-assembled with diphenylcyclopropenone have obvious advantages in hair growth length and grayscale, and have shown obvious hair growth on the 18th day, which has a unique therapeutic advantage. Figure 21-3 As shown, the skin thickness under low-dose rapamycin prodrug (0.05 mg / kg) and diphenylcyclopropenone treatment was generally higher than the skin thickness when other treatment groups were applied. Taken together, these data imply that low-dose rapamycin prodrug (0.05 mg / kg) and diphenylcyclopropenone co-assembled nanoparticles effectively enhance hair regeneration by accelerating the transition from telogen to growth phase without damaging the hair shaft or epidermis.

[0205] Female C57BL / 6 mice (6-7 weeks old) were subcutaneously inoculated with 100 μL of an emulsion containing 200 μg Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra and 100 μg of gliadin, distributed at three locations on the lateral wall. Gliadin was reconstituted from lyophilized powder in 50 mM acetic acid (5 mg / ml). This gliadin solution was then further diluted with PBS solution. Mice were intravenously injected with different nanoparticle formulations on days 0 and 7, respectively. Delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions were detected on day 14 after initiation. Mice were anesthetized by inhalation of isoflurane, and gliadin or negative control OVA solution (10 μL, 1 mg / mL) in PBS was immediately injected intradermally into the left and right ears after the auricle thickness was assessed with a caliper. The increase in auricle thickness was measured 24 hours later, and the change in auricle thickness (ΔT) was calculated as follows: ΔT = (auricle thickness 24 hours after induction) - (auricle thickness before induction) (see Fig.24 ).
[0206] The experimental groups are as follows: mice were given three preparations after immunization with gliadin: (1) free protein and rapamycin (Free Rapa+Glia), (2) nanoformulations without rapamycin prodrug (GL@NPs), and (3) RGL@NPs. The preparation method of Free Rapa+Glia is as follows: weigh appropriate amounts of rapamycin and gliadin, dissolve them in DMSO to 2 mg / mL, and further dilute them with PBS solution to the corresponding concentration to obtain the final Free Rapa+Glia group. The preparation method of GL@NPs is as follows: dissolve a mixture of gliadin and soybean lecithin in a 60% (v / v) ethanol solution at a mass ratio of 1:3. Then, the mixture is slowly injected into deionized water at a volume ratio of 1:5 and stirred for 30 minutes to form a particle suspension. The residual ethanol in the suspension is removed by a rotary evaporator under vacuum conditions at 37°C to finally obtain the finished nanobiological preparation CL@NPs. The preparation method of RGL@NPs is shown in Example 15.
[0207] Fig.24 It can be seen that the three preparations all alleviated the swelling of the auricle to varying degrees. Among them, there was no significant change in the swelling of the ear in the group of restimulated auricle with OVA solution, which proved that RGL@NPs specifically induced immunity to gliadin. Secondly, the nanoparticle group containing rapamycin and gliadin had the most obvious inhibitory effect on the swelling of the auricle after restimulation. Compared with the free drug group and the rapamycin nanoformulation group, it was proved that the rapamycin-gliadin-phosphatidylcholine composite nanoformulation prepared in this example performed best in inducing the body's immune tolerance to gliadin, which has certain guiding significance. In the future, it can be further considered to verify the efficacy of this nanodrug system in a systemic model of celiac disease and explore its potential physiological and pharmacological mechanisms, laying a theoretical foundation for the development of new strategies for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of celiac disease.
