Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of biomedicine, and relates to an oligonucleotide sequence and its application, in particular to a triplex-forming oligonucleotide (TFO) sequence for inhibiting the amplification of MDM2 and MDM4 genes and its application. Background Art
[0002] P53 is a tumor suppressor gene that has been found to be most closely associated with human tumors to date. Wild-type p53 protein plays a role in timely repairing damage and inhibiting uncontrolled cell growth, and its inactivation plays an important role in tumor formation. MDM2 and MDM4 are the main negative regulators of p53, and they inhibit the function of p53 in different and complementary ways. MDM2 mainly regulates the stability of p53, and MDM4 regulates the activity of p53. Overexpression of MDM2 and MDM4 genes can induce spontaneous tumor formation under the control of their natural promoters or heterologous promoters. Amplification of MDM2 can be found in more than 1 / 3 of human sarcoma samples and a series of tumors outside sarcomas. It is widely present in various histological subtypes of soft tissue sarcomas, including osteosarcoma, liposarcoma, lipoma, leiomyosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, malignant schwannoma, fibrosarcoma, perivascular epithelioma, and malignant fibrous histiocytoma. In addition, MDM2 is also amplified outside sarcomas, including malignant glioma, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, urothelial cancer, lung cancer, gastrointestinal tumors, etc. Amplification of MDM4 gene has been found in a variety of tumors. In retinoblastoma, the amplification ratio is as high as 65% (32 / 49); the rest have 10% amplification in ER+ breast cancer, 17% amplification in primary invasive breast cancer, 17% amplification in soft tissue sarcomas, about 10% amplification in malignant gliomas, and the rest have a certain proportion of amplification in metastatic melanoma, atypical liposarcoma, well-differentiated liposarcoma, and bladder cancer.
[0003] There are already several pharmaceutical companies on the market that have designed and produced small molecule protein drugs targeting MDM2. However, they are very prone to drug resistance, and the curative effects are often unsatisfactory. Moreover, MDM2 small molecule drugs have strong side effects. Preclinical studies have shown that small molecule drugs targeting MDM2 have gastrointestinal and lymphatic system toxicity. NCT02935907 is a clinical study on the MDM2 small molecule inhibitor APG-115 in advanced solid tumors. Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) occurred in the first cycle, including grade 2 thrombocytopenia at a dose of 200 mg, grade 3 thrombocytopenia at a dose of 300 mg, and one case of grade 3 fatigue at doses of 100 mg and 300 mg respectively. The most common grade 3 or 4 treatment-related adverse events (AEs) include: fatigue, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, dehydration, neutropenia, leukopenia, limb pain, and thrombocytopenia. In another study on APG-115 in Chinese patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma (CTR20170975), two dose-limiting toxicity reactions (DLTs), thrombocytopenia and febrile neutropenia, were observed in a patient taking a dose of 200 mg. Common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) include: anemia, thrombocytopenia, vomiting, hypercholesterolemia, and leukopenia. Seven patients (54%) had serious adverse events (SAEs), of which 4 were treatment-related. Common grade 3 / 4 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) include anemia (38.5%), thrombocytopenia (38.5%), leukopenia (30.8%), and neutropenia (23.1%). In addition to antagonizing the function of p53, the MDM2 protein is also involved in normal hematopoiesis. Treatment with an MDM2 antagonist may lead to hematopoietic function defects in patients.
[0004] MDM4 is also one of the negative regulators of p53 and mainly plays a role in regulating the activity of the tumor suppressor gene p53. Currently, inhibitors targeting MDM4 mainly target the MDM4-P53 binding site and are divided into peptide inhibitors and small molecule inhibitors. At present, only some peptide inhibitors have entered clinical trial research, and their inhibitory effects on tumors are all related to enhancing P53 and cannot play the tumor suppressor effect of MDM4 independent of P53. In normal cells and tissues, an increase in P53 activity will produce toxic effects.
[0005] In the prior art, inhibitors targeting MDM2 and MDM4 both have relatively large toxic and side effects. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an inhibitor that can target both MDM2 and MDM4, reduce or avoid toxic and side effects while improving the targeting ability, so as to achieve a better cancer treatment effect.

The present invention targets the MDM2 / MDM4 amplified gene sequence of tumors rather than proteins, and has better anti-drug resistance compared with small molecule inhibitor drugs in the prior art; and targets tumor cells with MDM2 / MDM4 amplification, causing apoptosis of tumor cells containing MDM2 / MDM4 amplification, and has no effect on normal cells without MDM2 / MDM4 amplification, with excellent safety and good therapeutic effect on tumors with MDM2 / MDM4 gene amplification. In summary, the triple-strand forming oligonucleotide and its pharmaceutical composition provided by the present invention have good targeting, effectiveness and safety for treating or inhibiting tumor cells with MDM2 / MDM4 amplification.

[0175] Liposomes are carriers that can effectively deliver a variety of drugs to target cells. The combination of drugs with liposomes can significantly improve the pharmacokinetics of drugs, reduce drug toxicity and improve therapeutic effects. Therefore, liposome formulations have broad development prospects in the delivery of anti-tumor drugs. In the field of nanomedicine, active targeting is an important strategy to overcome low selectivity and systemic toxicity and improve therapeutic effects. A drug delivery device with controllable and targeting functions can ideally deliver a high dose of therapeutic agents specifically to diseased cells, reduce interference with healthy cells, thereby generating the expected pharmacokinetics and biodistribution, achieving higher therapeutic effects and fewer side effects. In the present invention, the triple-strand forming oligonucleotide immunoliposome targeting MDM2 is a promising strategy for targeted drug delivery to treat MDM2-overexpressing cancers. A kind of ionizable cationic liposome nanoparticle prepared in the present invention can optimize the encapsulation of the payload and the intracellular delivery of nucleic acids. They only need a small dose and few injections to produce a good immune stimulation effect.

[0264] The triple helix-forming oligonucleotide targeting MDM2 was used at a dose of 20 mg / kg, the doxorubicin (DOX) injection was used at a dose of 2 mg / kg, and the control group was treated with normal saline. A total of 3 doses were administered within 7 days.
[0265] 4) The experimental result data are as shown in Table 3 below and Figure 15 as follows
[0266]
[0267] Table 3 Efficacy study of the injection of the triple helix-forming oligonucleotide targeting MDM2 in nude mice
[0268] 5) Results and discussion: As can be seen from Table 3 and Figure 15 it is known that the inhibitory effect on tumors of the triple helix-forming oligonucleotide targeting MDM2 treatment group is comparable to that of the doxorubicin group, and the tumor growth rate is significantly inhibited.

[0271] Methods and results:
[0272] 1. Animals: Nude mice, 6 - 8 weeks old, all female.
[0273] 2. Generation of tumor model
[0274] 1) Human osteosarcoma SJSA-1 (cells) were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC), and the cells were identified according to the instructions provided by ATCC. The cells were cultured in RPMI1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum at 37 °C under 5% carbon dioxide conditions. Subculture once every 2 days, and the cells were used within 15 passages.
[0275] 2) Tumor generation: Subcutaneously inject 5×10^6 SJSA-1 cells into the back of nude mice. When the tumor grows to at least about 100 mm 3, randomly group the mice and start treatment. The day of starting treatment is taken as the first day.
[0276] 3) Treatment process
[0277] The MDM2-Lip-TFOs targeting MDM2 were used at a dose of 2.5 mg / kg, the TFOs targeting MDM2 were used at a dose of 20 mg / kg, the doxorubicin (DOX) injection was used at a dose of 2 mg / kg, and the control group was given normal saline. A total of three doses were administered within 7 days.
[0278] 4) The experimental result data are as shown in Table 3 above and the appendix Figure 16 as shown
[0279] 5) Results and discussion: As Figure 16 can be seen, the MDM2-Lip-TFOs targeting MDM2 significantly inhibited tumor growth, with a better effect than the single TFOs treatment group targeting MDM2 and the doxorubicin group. The inhibitory effects of the single TFOs treatment group targeting MDM2 and the doxorubicin group on tumors were comparable. Compared with Example 7, the dosage of the triple-stranded forming oligonucleotide of MDM2-Lip-TFOs in this example was significantly reduced, and the utilization rate of the triple-stranded forming oligonucleotide was greatly improved. Figures 13 - 14 Shown are the photos of the CDX model of mice and the tumor mass after treatment. Mouse No. 1 received treatment with MDM2-Lip-TFOs, mouse No. 2 received treatment with a single TFOs injection, and mouse No. 3 was the control group. It can be seen that both the MDM2-Lip-TFOs injection targeting MDM2 and the single TFOs injection targeting MDM2 had a significant inhibitory effect on tumor growth, and the MDM2-Lip-TFOs injection targeting MDM2 had a stronger inhibitory effect on tumors.
