Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of pharmaceutical chemistry, and particularly relates to a class of telomerase inhibitors and uses thereof. Background Art
[0002] 85-90% of tumors rely on telomerase to maintain telomere length, thereby avoiding cell growth arrest and apoptosis caused by progressive shortening of telomeres. Therefore, inhibiting telomerase is an important way to develop anti-tumor drugs. At present, there are no small molecule telomerase inhibitors on the market, but several have entered clinical or preclinical studies. The fastest-progressing THIO (6-thio-dG) has conducted multiple Phase II clinical studies and obtained at least 10 tumor-related indications. Low-dose THIO combined with PD-1 or PD-L1 immune drugs has extraordinary efficacy in treating tumor models of colorectal cancer, liver cancer and small cell lung cancer. Even advanced tumors can be completely eliminated, and targeted immune memory against cancer cells can be established. As of the end of 2023, THIO has been granted "orphan drug" status by the US FDA for liver cancer, small cell lung cancer and glioblastoma. In June 2024, the first oligonucleotide telomerase inhibitor Rytelo (imetelstat) was approved by the FDA for the treatment of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), a blood cancer. It can be seen that telomerase has good clinical application prospects as an anti-cancer target.
[0003] Although the research and development of existing telomerase inhibitors has made certain progress, their inhibitory activity is generally not strong. The most representative small molecule telomerase inhibitor BIBR1532 has an inhibitory activity of about 0.1μM, but many small molecule telomerase inhibitors including BIBR1532 have stopped in the preclinical stage due to insufficient in vivo activity. The recently approved Rytelo belongs to the oligonucleotide class. Compared with small molecules, it has poor stability, poor membrane permeability and is prone to cause unexpected immune responses, which limits its use. Although THIO is a small molecule, it is a nucleoside analog with poor selectivity and high toxicity. Therefore, the development of non-nucleoside highly active small molecule telomerase inhibitors is expected to break through the research and development bottleneck of existing telomerase inhibitors and have broad-spectrum anti-tumor potential. Summary of the invention
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of current telomerase inhibitors, such as insufficient activity and limited in vivo application, the present invention proposes and confirms a class of diaromatic ketone compounds as highly active small molecule telomerase inhibitors, which have clear anti-tumor activity and the effect of activating anti-tumor immunity in vivo and in vitro.

[0239] Telomerase inhibitory activity and antiproliferative activity test of the telomerase inhibitor of the present invention:
[0240] This example mainly uses telomerase inhibitors BIBR1532 and THIO as positive controls to evaluate the telomerase inhibitory activity and anti-proliferative activity of compounds 1-27 against HL-60 cell lines. Other compounds of the present invention have similar beneficial effects to the compounds listed below, but this should not be interpreted as the compounds of the present invention having only the following beneficial effects.
[0241] (1) Telomerase inhibition activity test
[0242] After treating HL-60 cells with target compounds at different concentration gradients for 96 hours, collect about 1 million cells in a 1.5 mL EP tube, add 200 μL of CHAPS cell lysis buffer to each tube, and lyse for 30 minutes in an ice bath. Then centrifuge at 4°C, 14000 r / min for 30 minutes, and take the supernatant for 100-fold dilution for later use.
[0243] Preparation of negative control: Take 5 μL of the above extract and heat it at 95°C for 5 min to inactivate telomerase.
[0244] TRAP-PCR: PCR uses a 25μL reaction system. The ingredients include: 1× Blend Taq buffer, 5mM MgCl2, 0.2mM dNTPs, 0.4μM forward primer, 0.4μM reverse primer, 80nM fluorescent probe, 2U Blend Taq polymerase and 1μL telomerase extract. The amplification conditions are: keep warm at 37℃ for 30min to allow the forward primer to extend under the action of telomerase, then heat to 95℃ for 3min to inactivate telomerase, followed by 2 sets of PCR cycles. The first set includes 3 cycles: 94℃-30s, 55℃-60s, 72℃-30s; the second set includes 40 cycles: 94℃-30s, 55℃-30s, 72℃-30s. The fluorescence signal of the system is detected at each annealing temperature of the second set of cycles.
[0245] By calculating the number of cycles (Ct value) of different samples reaching the exponential growth phase in the system, the relative telomerase activity of the cells in the sample group can be calculated. The relative activity of telomerase in the sample is obtained by deducting the value of the corresponding negative control group that was inactivated in advance. The telomerase activity inhibition rate and IC 50 value.
[0246] (2) Tumor cell proliferation inhibition activity test
[0247] Human leukemia cells HL-60 were selected to test the anti-tumor activity of the new molecule. The main steps are: ① Inoculate logarithmic phase cells into 96-well plates, 5000 cells per well; ② The next day, add compounds with different concentration gradients and incubate for 96 hours; ③ Add CCK-8 solution and incubate for about 1.5 hours; ④ Use an enzyme reader to detect OD 450 , calculate the inhibition rate and IC 50 value.
[0248] The results in Table 1 show that the aromatic ketone small molecules and their derivatives found in the present invention have significant telomerase inhibitory activity, and some molecules show excellent anti-tumor effects.

[0256] Verification of the effect of the telomerase inhibitor of the present invention on inducing immune exposure of tumor tissue:
[0257] In this example, TCB-2 was used as a representative molecule and BIBR1532 was used as a control. The effect of polysubstituted diaryl ketone telomerase inhibitors on promoting immune cells, especially CD4 + and CD8 + The role of T cells in the infiltration of tumor tissues and inducing anti-tumor immune exposure. Briefly, 1 million CT-26 cells were subcutaneously injected unilaterally into the axilla of male Balb / c mice to bear tumors; after successful tumor bearing, they were divided into a control group, a BIBR1532 group, and a high, medium and low TCB-2 group, and were given intraperitoneal injections of drug-free solvent, 50 mg / kg BIBR1532, 10 mg / kg TCB-2, 30 mg / kg TCB-2 and 50 mg / kg TCB-2, respectively, once a day. The treatment lasted for a total of 15 days, after which the mice were killed and the tumor tissues were taken for paraffin embedding and sectioning, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) examinations of CD4, CD8 and PDL1 were performed. Figure 1 Immunohistochemical examination and Figure 2 The average optical density analysis results show that TCB-2 can dose-dependently increase the distribution of CD4 and CD8 positive T cells in tumor tissues, reduce the expression of escape antigen PDL1 in tumor tissues, induce immune exposure of tumor tissues, and enhance the body's anti-tumor immunity.

[0259] In vivo anti-tumor activity test of the telomerase inhibitor combined with the PDL1 inhibitor of the present invention:
[0260] The combination of TCB-2 and low-dose INCB086550 (a small molecule PDL1 inhibitor) can rapidly activate anti-tumor immune responses and induce tumor tissue regression in a short period of time. Briefly, 1 million CT-26 cells were injected subcutaneously in the axilla of male Balb / c mice to bear tumors; after successful tumor bearing, they were divided into a control group, an INCB086550 group, and an INCB086550+TCB-2 combination group; INCB086550 was administered by oral gavage at 20 mg / kg, and TCB-2 was injected intraperitoneally at 50 mg / kg. The control group was given a solvent control in the same manner, and the frequency of administration was once a day. The treatment lasted for a total of 13 days, after which the mice were killed, the tumors were removed, weighed, and the tumor inhibition rate was calculated. Figure 3 As shown, the results indicate that the two small molecules (INCB086550, TCB-2) work synergistically to achieve potent anti-tumor activity and avoid the low response to PD1 / PDL1 therapy or the tumor hyperprogression induced by it.
[0261] In summary, the compounds prepared by the present invention have good application prospects and can be used as highly active small molecule telomerase inhibitors to promote the penetration of immune cells into tumor tissues and induce immune exposure of tumor tissues, thereby improving the body's anti-tumor immune ability or enhancing the efficacy of other anti-tumor immunotherapies.
