Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medicinal chemistry, and specifically relates to an HDAC inhibitor or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a composition and use thereof. Background Art

[0002] HDAC (Histone Deacetylase), full name histone deacetylase, is an important enzyme in the process of histone modification. HDAC can remove the acetyl group on the lysine residue of histone, change the charge to make the chromosome structure more compact, thereby inhibiting the transcriptional expression of genes. Based on the homology of yeast proteins, HDACs can divide the 18 HDACs subtypes currently found in the human body into four categories. Among all HDACs, class I HDACs (HDAC1-3 and 8) play an important role in activating potential tumorigenesis, disease-causing oncogenes, and treatment resistance. Recent studies have shown that HDACs 1-3 are essential for the expression of oncogenes regulated by super enhancers in breast cancer and other cancers.

[0003] At present, there are 5 HDAC inhibitors approved for marketing worldwide. Vorinostat, romidepsin, belinostat, and panobinostat are approved for marketing by the US FDA for the clinical treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, and multiple myeloma; cedabendine (trade name: Epsom) is approved for marketing by my country's NMPA for peripheral T-cell lymphoma and breast cancer. However, the existing HDAC inhibitors have limited clinical application due to their toxicity, which limits adequate exposure in solid tumors. Existing data and information show that HDAC3, as an essential gene, is the main driver of bone marrow toxicity caused by HDAC inhibitors, and these inhibitors target multiple isomers.

[0004] Among them, except for Chidamide, which is a selective inhibitor of HDAC class I and HDAC10 subtype, the other four are HDAC pan-inhibitors. However, the currently approved HDAC therapies are still unclear and are only specific to a few HDAC subtypes. Due to their broad inhibitory properties, they have disadvantages such as poor effects on solid tumors, limited efficacy, drug resistance and toxicity, which increase the possibility of adverse reactions. Therefore, the market urgently needs HDAC inhibitors with higher selectivity to treat diseases or conditions.

[0005] CoREST (also known as RCOR1) belongs to the corepressor family of proteins. It plays an important role in gene regulation. CoREST can interact with transcription factors and histone modification enzyme complexes to regulate gene transcription. CoREST was originally discovered to form a complex with HDAC1 and HDAC2 (histone deacetylase 1 and 2), which can deacetylate histones, leading to the formation of a tight chromatin structure and gene silencing. This means that CoREST is involved in chromatin remodeling and gene transcriptional repression. Cancer cells usually express high levels of REST, resulting in the repression of genes related to cell growth and proliferation. CoREST inhibitors can block the interaction between REST and CoREST, thereby activating these genes and causing cancer cell death. It can be seen that CoREST is a potential target for selective cancer treatment.

[0006] The uniqueness of the CoREST complex lies in its dual role as a deacetylase subunit (HDAC1 or 2) and a demethylase subunit (LSD1 / KDAM1A). One of the other three RCOR proteins (RCOR 1, 2 and 3, also known as CoREST1, 2 and 3) serves as a scaffold that directly binds to HDAC1 / 2 and LSD1. These three types of proteins are the core subunits of the CoREST complex. They can work synergistically through deacetylase and demethylase activities to achieve effective histone deacetylation and demethylation in chromatin, thereby inhibiting cancer cell proliferation, impairing tumor growth, and further improving the selectivity of the drug.

[0007] The sulfur functional group in sulfenyl imine compounds has excellent pharmacological properties, such as excellent metabolic stability, and can interact with hydrogen bonds as donors and acceptors. The substituents of the two carbon atoms in the structure of this type of compound are not necessarily the same, and the introduction of nitrogen atoms forms a chiral asymmetric structure in the tetrahedron, making the structure of sulfenyl imine compounds diverse. In general, the structure and configuration of sulfenyl imine compounds are relatively stable and do not require special treatment. Compounds in which the nitrogen atom is not replaced in sulfenyl imine can be phosphorylated in situ. The alkalinity of the nitrogen atom itself can also bind and coordinate with metal ions, and can also form salts with inorganic acids. The hydrogen bond acceptor of sulfenyl imines is a heteroatom bound to the sulfur atom. Free sulfenyl imine can act as both a hydrogen acceptor and a hydrogen bond donor. NMR results show that the electron-withdrawing ability of sulfone compounds is not as good as that of sulfenyl imine compounds, and sulfenyl imines with lower molecular weight are easily soluble in water and alcohol solvents. The special chemical properties of sulfenyl imine have aroused great interest among researchers.

[0008] However, to date, there are few reports on HDAC inhibitors discovered based on the sulfonyliminobenzamide core, which have strong application prospects. Summary of the invention SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0010] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a HDAC inhibitor based on a sulfinyl iminobenzamide core with high activity, low side effects and good selectivity, a composition and its use.

[0156] Experimental Example 1: Activity test of the compounds of the present invention on HDAC1 / 3 protease

[0157] Purpose of the experiment: The purpose of this test case is to test the effect of the compound on the function of HDAC1 / 3 enzymes. Background principle: Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are a class of epigenetic proteins associated with a variety of diseases (including cancer), and inhibition of specific HDACs may treat or otherwise improve such diseases in some patients. Currently, four families of HDACs have been found in the human body, including 18 HDAC subtypes. Among them, HDAC1 was identified as a novel target gene through an in vivo CRISPR screening platform, and its inhibition reversed a-PD1 resistance caused by STK11 loss, while HDAC3 is an essential gene and the main driver of bone marrow toxicity caused by HDAC inhibitors targeting multiple subtypes.

[0158] Experimental process: In this test example, Fluorogenic HDAC1 Assay Kit and Fluorogenic HDAC3 Assay Kit (BPS bioscience) were used to detect HDAC1 and HDCA3 enzyme activities. Step 1: Add the following reaction mixture in duplicate to a microtiter black plate as follows: 1) Prepare the master mixture: N wells × (5μl HDAC substrate (200μM) + 5μl BSA (1mg / ml) + 30μl HDAC Assay Buffer). Add 40μl of the master solution to all wells. 2) Test compound with a maximum concentration of 20uM, 5-fold dilution, 9 gradients, and add 5μl of inhibitor solution to each well. For the blank control group and the positive control group, add 5μl of the same solution without inhibitor. Keep the final DMSO concentration at or below 1%. 3) Add 5μl HDAC Assay Buffer to the wells of the blank control group. 4) Add 5μl of diluted HDAC1 enzyme to the positive control group and the test inhibitor wells to start the reaction. Incubate at 37°C for 30 minutes. Step 2: Add 50 μl of undiluted HDAC developer (2x) to each well. Incubate the plate at room temperature for 15 minutes. Step 3: Read the sample in a microplate reader with an excitation wavelength of 350-380 nm and an emission light detection wavelength of 440-460 nm. Calculate IC50 using GraphPad software and screen the compound by comparing it with the positive drug TNG260. IC50 (half maximal inhibitory concentration) refers to the half inhibitory concentration of the measured antagonist. It can indicate the half amount of a drug or substance (inhibitor) in inhibiting certain biological programs (or certain substances contained in this program, such as enzymes, cell receptors or microorganisms). The synthesis method of TNG260 refers to WO2023102162. The structure of TNG260 is as follows:

[0159] The results of the HDAC1 and HDAC3 IC50 of each compound determined using the assay are shown in Table 2 below. The compound numbers correspond to the compound numbers shown in Table 1, "A" indicates an IC50 of less than 10 nM, "B" indicates an IC50 range of 10 nM to 50 nM; "C" indicates an IC50 range of 50 nM to 200 nM; "D" indicates an IC50 range of 200 nM to 2 μM; and "E" indicates an IC50 greater than 2 μM.

[0160] Table 2: IC values ​​of exemplary compounds of the invention for HDAC1 / 3 protease activity 50 value

[0161]

[0162]

[0163] Conclusion: The smaller the IC50 value of HDAC1 protease inhibitory activity, the stronger its HDAC1 inhibitory activity is; the larger the IC50 value of HDAC3 protease inhibitory activity is, the weaker its HDAC3 inhibitory activity is. Therefore, most of the compounds with novel sulfonyl iminobenzamide structure prepared by the present invention have surprisingly better HDAC1 enzyme inhibitory activity and excellent HDAC1 / 3 selectivity compared with the positive control compound TNG260. This strong inhibitory effect and selectivity have important therapeutic significance for the treatment of symptoms or diseases related to HDAC1 inhibition.

[0164] Experimental Example 2: Testing of the Functional Effects of the Compounds of the Invention on the CoREST Complex

[0165] Purpose of the experiment: The purpose of this test case is to test the effect of the compound on the function of the CoREST complex.

[0166] Background: CoREST was identified as a sensitizer to anti-PD1 in an in vivo screen of STK11-deficient cancers. Class I HDAC enzymes function through four major complexes, with HDAC1 / 2 located in the CoREST, NuRD, and Sin3 complexes, and HDAC3 in the NCoR complex.

[0167] Experimental process:

[0168] Cell culture: A549 cells were grown in Ham's F-12K+10% FBS+1% P / S medium. Cells in logarithmic growth phase were inoculated in culture dishes. Subsequent experiments were performed when the confluence reached about 90%; Immunoprecipitation: CoREST, NuRD, Sin3 and NCoR complexes were obtained using an immunoprecipitation kit (Protein A+G magnetic beads method). Cell samples were lysed, the culture medium was removed, and the cells were washed once with PBS, and then the remaining liquid was removed. 100-200 μl of inhibitor-containing lysis solution was added for every 500,000-1 million cells, and the lysis solution and cells were properly blown to make full contact. After full lysis, centrifuge at 10,000-14,000×g at 4°C for 3-5 minutes and take the supernatant; bind the antibody to the Protein A+G magnetic beads, and then incubate with the supernatant at 4°C overnight; use the acid elution method, add 100μl Acid Elution Buffer for every 20μl original magnetic bead volume, mix well and place on a side-swing shaker or rotary mixer, incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes, after incubation, place on a magnetic stand for 10 seconds, transfer the supernatant to a new centrifuge tube, and immediately add 10μl Neutralization Buffer (neutralization solution), mix appropriately; Deacetylase assay: The enzyme activity of each complex is measured based on fluorescence. IC50 is calculated by GraphPad software, and the compounds are screened by comparing with the positive drug TNG260.

[0169] The results of the assays for the CoREST complex function of each compound using the assay are shown in Table 3 below. The compound numbers correspond to the compound numbers shown in Table 1, "A" indicates an IC50 of less than 50 nM, "B" indicates an IC50 range of 50 nM to 200 nM; "C" indicates an IC50 range of 200 nM to 500 nM; and "D" indicates an IC50 range of 500 nM to 2 μM.

[0171]

[0172] Conclusion: The synthesized novel compounds have good enzyme inhibitory activity against CoREST complex. The inhibitory activity of most compounds is better than that of the positive drug TNG260, and they have potential potential for development of anti-tumor drugs.
