Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to antiviral drugs against influenza (Flu) virus and antibodies or conjugates of their constant regions Fc. Specifically, it relates to compounds comprising antibodies or their constant regions Fc covalently coupled to virus surface protein inhibitor small molecules or inhibitor polypeptide drugs and intermediate compounds thereof, and to pharmaceutical compositions or drugs comprising these compounds, as well as their use for preventing and / or treating related viral infections. Background Art
[0002] Influenza virus causes nearly 3 million to 5 million cases of severe infection and about 500,000 deaths worldwide each year (Luliano et al., 2018, Lancet 391: 1285-1300). Although most healthy people will recover automatically within one to two weeks after being infected with the virus, influenza virus infection can develop into life-threatening severe infection and complications, such as pneumonia, for the elderly, those with chronic diseases and those with weakened immune systems.
[0003] Developing treatments to combat influenza viruses is an ongoing challenge for humanity. Although there are already approved anti-influenza drugs and preventive vaccines on the market, small molecule anti-influenza drugs usually need to be used within 48 hours of the onset of symptoms after infection to have clinical benefits. In addition, due to the high variability of influenza viruses, resistant strains of viruses to such commonly used drugs have been found. Therefore, there is a need to develop more effective and long-lasting therapies for the treatment and / or prevention of influenza viruses.
[0004] Influenza virus is a negative-strand, segmented RNA virus belonging to the family Orthomyxoviridae, including influenza virus A, B, and C. Among them, influenza virus A and B are the main infections in humans. Influenza virus infects respiratory epithelial cells. The first step of the process is the adsorption process of host cells mediated by the surface receptor binding protein of the virus (hemagglutinin protein, HA protein for influenza protein). Subsequently, under the action of hemagglutinin protein, the viral envelope and cell membrane fuse, and the influenza virus genome fragments and the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase complex are then released into the cell. The viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase complex uses the genome fragments as a template to synthesize new progeny virus particles in the cell. The newly synthesized virus particles are released outside the cell by cell lysis or budding. For influenza virus, the complete release of progeny virus depends on the cleavage of sialic acid residues on the cell surface by neuraminidase NA. Neuraminidase inhibitors targeting influenza virus neuraminidase to reduce virus spread have been approved for clinical use, including oseltamivir (Tamiflu TM ), zanamivir (Relenza TM ) and peramivir (Rapivab TM ).
[0005] Patients who have received organ transplants or cancer patients cannot effectively eliminate viruses due to their suppressed immune systems. After being infected with influenza viruses, the virus can easily replicate in the body for a longer time, thereby increasing the possibility of producing drug-resistant strains. This has been found in clinical practice. At the same time, the problem of influenza drug resistance in ordinary patients is also a prominent medication challenge, so more effective new methods and therapeutic agents for treating influenza are needed.

In some embodiments, the average DAR value of the conjugate of the invention is between 0.5 and 10.0, such as 1.0-8.0, such as 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, 3, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 4, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 5 9.0, 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.6, 9.7, 9.8, 9.9, or 10.0, or a range having two of these values as endpoints.
[0419] In the text, when variables such as n, y, etc. are or are selected from a range of integers, it means that all integers in the range are considered in the present invention, just as if they were listed one by one in the text. For example, when n is described as an integer of 1-8, it is equivalent to describing that n is an integer of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 in the text.

[1085] The data show that the tested conjugate molecules have excellent in vitro anti-H1N1 virus activity. Compared with reference molecules A and B, the activity of conjugate 1 is increased by 8.8 times and 5.9 times, respectively. The activity of conjugate 2 is increased by 15.8 times and 10.5 times, respectively. The activity of conjugates 3 and 4 is increased by 10.0 times and 6.7 times, respectively.
