Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medical technology, and in particular relates to a pharmaceutical composition and use thereof. Background Art
[0002] Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common malignant tumors in men. Worldwide, the incidence of PCa ranks second among male tumors, and ranks first among male malignant tumors in the United States, with a mortality rate second only to lung cancer.
[0003] Treatment options vary according to the stage and risk level of prostate cancer. For patients with early low-risk prostate cancer, active monitoring is the main approach. Due to the lack of obvious symptoms in early prostate cancer or the limitations of detection methods, most prostate cancers are already in the late stage when diagnosed, and more than half of them have already metastasized to distant sites. The 5-year relative survival rate of patients with distant metastases is only 30%. For patients with advanced and metastatic prostate cancer, medical castration or surgical castration is the main treatment, namely androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Since the growth of normal prostate cells and prostate cancer cells depends on androgens, surgical castration or medical castration can minimize the concentration of androgens in the patient's body, thereby inhibiting the androgen signaling pathway and ultimately inhibiting the growth of tumor cells. Currently, the therapeutic drugs used for ADT include gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRH agonists), gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonists (GnRH antagonists), androgen secretion inhibitors, etc. Most patients are sensitive to ADT at the beginning of treatment and have castration sensitive prostate cancer (CSPC). However, due to genetic or drug-induced reasons, almost all patients will progress to castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) after 2 years and become drug-resistant. Once progressing to CRPC, the median survival time of patients is only 9-12 months.
[0004] CRPC is mainly divided into two independent stages: metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) with distant metastasis and non metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC) without distant metastasis. When nmCRPC patients develop distant metastasis or disease progression after failure of novel endocrine therapy, they will enter the mCRPC stage, so mCRPC can be regarded as the final stage of PCa patients. The main therapies currently used for mCRPC include chemotherapy (docetaxel), novel endocrine therapy (enzalutamide, abiraterone acetate, etc.), immunotherapy (Sipuleucel-T) and radiotherapy for bone metastasis (radium-223). Doxetaxel is the first FDA-approved chemotherapy drug for the treatment of mCRPC. It can effectively prolong the patient's overall survival (OS) by about 19.2 months, but the drug can cause a series of side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, neurological diseases, anemia, etc. 17α-hydroxylase / C17,20-lyase (CPY17 enzyme) plays a key role in the synthesis of androgens. Abiraterone acetate is a prodrug that is converted into abiraterone in the body. Abiraterone is an androgen synthesis inhibitor that can reduce androgen levels by inhibiting the CYP17 enzyme. The drug was approved by the FDA for CRPC patients in 2011. Enzalutamide is a second-generation AR (androgen receptor) inhibitor. After binding to enzalutamide, AR cannot be normally transported to the cell nucleus or recruit co-activators, and AR transcriptional activity is reduced. Compared with the first-generation AR inhibitors, enzalutamide has a stronger affinity for AR. Although the approval of abiraterone acetate, enzalutamide, etc. is of great significance for the treatment of mCRPC, most patients will eventually develop drug resistance after a period of treatment.

The purpose of neoadjuvant therapy is to provide immediate systemic treatment, thereby potentially curing micrometastases, which in other cases will proliferate when following the standard sequence of surgery followed by systemic therapy. Neoadjuvant therapy can also help reduce tumor size, allowing complete resection of tumors that were initially inoperable or preserving parts of organs and their functions. In addition, neoadjuvant therapy allows in vivo evaluation of drug efficacy, which can guide the selection of subsequent treatments.
[0139] "Adjuvant therapy" refers to therapy given after radical surgery (in which no evidence of residual disease can be detected) to destroy any remaining cancer cells in the body to reduce the likelihood that the tumor will return or spread to other parts of the body. The treatment approach is generally the same as neoadjuvant therapy. The goal of adjuvant therapy is to prevent the cancer from coming back and, therefore, reduce the chance of cancer-related death. Adjuvant therapy is specifically excluded in this article from neoadjuvant therapy.
[0140] The "combination", "combined use", "combined administration" or "combination therapy" mentioned in the present invention refers to the administration of at least one dose of the compound of the aforementioned general formula (I) or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, isomer or crystal form and the aforementioned novel endocrine therapeutic drug within a certain period of time, which can be prepared together as a compound preparation or each can be prepared as an independent preparation for simultaneous, separate or sequential administration to the patient; or on the basis of the above-mentioned combination, corticosteroids can be administered to the patient simultaneously, separately or sequentially.

[0149] The "therapeutically effective amount" of the present invention refers to the amount of the aforementioned compound or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, isomer or crystal form and the aforementioned novel endocrine therapeutic drug that can at least alleviate the symptoms of the patient's condition when administered to the patient. The actual amount comprising the "therapeutically effective amount" will vary according to a variety of circumstances, including but not limited to the specific condition being treated, the severity of the condition, the patient's physique and health condition, and the route of administration. For example, a single bolus may be administered, several divided doses may be administered over time, or the dose may be proportionally reduced or increased as indicated by the urgency of the treatment situation. It should be noted that the dosage value may vary with the type and severity of the condition to be alleviated, and may include single or multiple doses. For any particular individual, the specific dosing regimen should be adjusted over time according to individual needs and the professional judgment of the person administering the composition or supervising the administration of the composition.
[0150] The "unit dosage form" of the present invention refers to a physically discrete unit suitable as a unit dose for human subjects and other mammals, each unit containing a predetermined amount of active substance calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect and a suitable pharmaceutical excipient.

[0164] Test method:
[0165] 1. Construction and grouping of tumor-bearing mice
[0166] All mice were castrated by scrotal orifice removal 14 days before tumor cell inoculation. 22Rv1 tumor cells were subcutaneously injected into the right flank of each mouse with 0.1 ml of serum-free RPMI-1640 medium and Matrigel (supplier: Corning) in a 1:1 ratio to culture tumors. Animals were weighed before administration, tumor volumes were measured, and groups were divided according to tumor volumes using a block design.
[0167] 2. Dosage regimen
[0168] Dosing is carried out according to the following table.
[0169]
[0170] Note:
[0171] Vehicle control: DMSO / PEG300 / Tween 80 / normal saline (%): 5 / 40 / 5 / 50;
[0172] Compound 29 prescription: 0.5% MC;
[0173] Enzalutamide prescription: DMSO / PEG300 / Tween 80 / normal saline (%): 5 / 40 / 5 / 50.
[0174] 3. Experimental observation indicators
[0175] The health status and mortality of the animals were monitored daily, body weight and tumor volume were measured twice a week, and samples were collected after the last administration. The efficacy was evaluated according to the clinical efficacy evaluation index for solid tumors (RECIST1.1). After two consecutive measurements of tumor volume, mice with a tumor volume reduction greater than or equal to 30% of the value measured on day 0 were considered to have partial remission (PR). No palpable tumors (two consecutive measurements were 0.00 mm 3 ) will be classified as complete remission (CR); if the tumor volume increases by less than 20% of the volume on day 0 or decreases by less than 30% of the volume on day 0, it will be classified as stable disease (SD); if the tumor volume increases by more than 20% of the measured value on day 0, it will be classified as progressive disease (PD). The results are shown in Table 2:
[0176] Table 2 Effects of compound 29 of the present invention combined with enzalutamide on tumor growth in human prostate cancer 22Rv1 CDX subcutaneous xenograft tumor model
[0177]
[0178] It can be seen from the experimental results in Table 2 that the cell line is insensitive to the treatment of enzalutamide, while the combination of compound 29 and enzalutamide has a significant inhibitory effect on the castration subcutaneous xenograft tumor model of human prostate cancer 22Rv1, indicating that the compound of the present invention combined with enzalutamide has good clinical application potential for the treatment of prostate cancer, especially prostate cancer that is insensitive to enzalutamide treatment.

[0194] Table 3 Effect of compound 29 of the present invention combined with enzalutamide on tumor growth in subcutaneous xenograft tumor model of human prostate cancer enzalutamide-resistant strain CDX
[0195]
[0196] # When compound 29 was used alone, the tumor volume was statistically significantly different from that of the vehicle control group, P<0.01
[0197] ## When compound 29 was used alone, the tumor volume was statistically significantly different from that of the enzalutamide group, P = 0.028
[0198] * When compound 29 was used in combination with enzalutamide, the tumor volume was statistically significantly different from that of the vehicle control group, P < 0.01
[0199] ** When compound 29 was used in combination with enzalutamide, the tumor volume was statistically significantly different from that in the enzalutamide group, P < 0.01
[0200] ***When compound 29 was used in combination with enzalutamide, the tumor volume was statistically significantly different from that of the compound 29 alone group, P = 0.01
[0201] From the experimental results in Table 3, it can be seen that the combination of compound 29 and enzalutamide has a significant inhibitory effect on the castrated subcutaneous xenograft tumor model of human prostate cancer enzalutamide-resistant strains, with significant statistical differences (**, P < 0.01), indicating that the compound of the present invention combined with enzalutamide has good clinical application potential for the treatment of enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer.

[0212] Test substance: Compound 29 in the present invention, the structure of which is shown above, and the preparation method can refer to the specific implementation method of WO2018108079A1. Abiraterone is commercially available.
[0213] Animals, patient information of tumor masses, etc.: Human prostate cancer tumor sample LD1-0034-361929 was derived from a male patient. Clinical diagnosis: castration-resistant prostate cancer with bladder metastasis; pathological diagnosis: prostate cancer-poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma;
[0214] Male Nu / Nu nude mice, 6-8 weeks.
[0215] Test method:
[0216] 1. Construction and grouping of tumor-bearing mice
[0217] The tumor was inoculated on the right back of the mice. The animals were weighed and the tumor volume was measured before administration. The mice were divided into groups according to the tumor volume using a block design.
[0218] 2. Dosage regimen
[0219] Dosing is carried out according to the following table.
[0220]
[0221] Note: Solvent control: 0.5% MC; Compound 29 prescription: 0.5% MC; Abiraterone prescription: 10% DMSO + 90% vegetable oil
[0222] 3. Experimental observation indicators
[0223] The health status and mortality of the animals were monitored daily, body weight and tumor volume were measured twice a week, and samples were collected after the last administration. The therapeutic effect of tumor volume was evaluated by TGI%, and the relative tumor inhibition rate TGI (%) was: TGI = 1-T / C (%). T / C% is the relative tumor growth rate, that is, the percentage value of the relative tumor volume of the treatment group and the control group at a certain time point. T and C are the relative tumor volume (RTV) of the treatment group and the control group at a specific time point, respectively. The calculation formula is: T / C% = TRTV / CRTV × 100% (TRTV: average RTV of the treatment group; CRTV: average RTV of the vehicle control group; RTV = Vt / V0, V0 is the tumor volume of the animal when grouping, and Vt is the tumor volume of the animal after treatment.
[0224] The results are shown in the following table:
