Abstract
Description
AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compounds combined with analgesics for the treatment of cancer patients with pain Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for treating tumors and cancers, in particular to a method for treating cancers and tumors by combining an AKR1C3 activated anticancer prodrug compound with a non-steroidal analgesic drug, and belongs to the field of tumor treatment. Background Art
[0002] AST-3424 (WO2016145092, WO2017087428), a DNA alkylating agent prodrug targeting overexpressed aldehyde-keto reductase 1C3 (AKR1C3), has a CAS number of 2097713-69-2 and its structure is as follows:
[0003] Chemical structure of AST-3424
[0004] AST-3424 (also known as OBI-3424, TH-3424) enters cancer cells and is activated by the AKR1C3 enzyme overexpressed by cancer cells to release the metabolite AST-2660 (also known as AST-2660). AST-3424 itself has low toxicity to cancer cells. In its animal models and in vitro pharmacological experiments, its pharmacological effects are related to the expression of AKR1C3 enzyme: the prodrug AST-3424 is metabolized to AST-2660 under the action of AKR1C3 enzyme and NADPH, and the expression level of the enzyme is positively correlated with the efficacy (Meng F, Li WF, Jung D, et al. A novel selective AKR1C3-activated prodrug AST-3424 / OBI-3424 exhibits broad anti-tumor activity. Am J Cancer Res. 2021; 11(7): 3645-3659; Evans K, Duan J, Pritchard T, et al. OBI-3424, a Novel AKR1C3-Activated Prodrug, Exhibits Potent Efficacy against Preclinical Models of T-ALL. Clin Cancer Res.2019;25(14):4493-4503.doi:10.1158 / 1078-0432.CCR-19-0551;Wang Y,Liu Y,Zhou C,et al.An AKR1C3-specific prodrug with potent anti-tumor activities against T-ALL.Leuk Lymphoma.2020;61(7):1660-1668.doi:10.1080 / 10428194.2020.1728746; He P,Wang C,Wang Y,et al.A Novel AKR1C3 Specific Prodrug TH3424 With Potent Antitumor Activity in Liver Cancer[retracted in:Clin Pharmacol Ther.2021 Jul;110(1):262].Clin Pharmacol Ther. 2021, 110(1):229-237.doi:10.1002 / cpt.2171).
[0005] Chemical reaction formula for the metabolism of AST-3424 to AST-2660 (2660 in the figure)
[0006] Currently, the drug has entered Phase II clinical trials in China and the United States (US NCT03592264, castration-resistant prostate cancer and liver cancer; US NCT04315324, T-ALL T lymphocytic acute leukemia; China CTR20191399, various solid tumors; CTR20201915, T lymphocytic acute leukemia and B lymphocytic acute leukemia).
[0007] In particular, the results of a Phase I clinical trial completed in the United States also revealed that the therapeutic effect of AST-3424 is highly correlated with AKR1C3 enzyme expression, and patients with high AKR1C3 enzyme expression will have a better treatment effect. It has also been preliminarily determined that patients with an IHC score of H-score greater than or equal to 135 will be selected for the Phase II clinical trial (Tsimberidou, Apostolia & Verschraegen, Claire & Hsu, Pei & Pearce, Tillman. (2022). Safety, pharmacokinetics, and clinical activity of OBI-3424, an AKR1C3-activated prodrug, in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors: A phase 1 dose-escalation study.. Journal of Clinical Oncology. 40.3030-3030.10.1200 / JCO.2022.40.16_suppl.3030).
[0008] Summary of the Invention
[0009] As the sponsor of the Phase I clinical trial in China, the applicant found in some cases of advanced solid tumors reported in the clinical trial that some patients had higher AKR1C3 enzyme expression and had a better response to AST-3424; while some patients had almost the same higher AKR1C3 enzyme expression but had almost no response to AST-3424. After investigation, it was found that some of the patients who did not respond had taken non-steroidal analgesics during the AST-3424 treatment course.
[0010] Existing literature studies have revealed that nonsteroidal analgesics have AKR1C3 inhibitory effects:
[0011] Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 80 (1983), "Inhibition of a major NAD(P)-linked oxidore ductase from rat liver cytosol by steroidal and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents and by prostaglandins", reported that seven drugs, including aspirin, sodium salicylate, paracetamol, diclofenac, fenoprofen, flufenamic acid, and tolmetin, had AKR1C3 inhibitory activity;
[0012] Y.Higaki et al., Chemico-Biological Interactions, 143-144 (2003) 50-513, Selective and potent inhibitors of human 20a-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (AKR1C1) that metabolizes neurosteroids derived from progesterone, reported that indomethacin has AKR1C3 inhibitory activity;
[0013] Biochem Pharmacol. 2008 January 15; 75(2): 484-493. "An Indomethacin Analogue, N-(4-Chlorobenzoyl)-melatonin, is a Selective Inhibitor of Aldo-keto Reductase 1C3 (Type 2 3α-HSD, Type 5 17β-HSD, and Prostaglandin F Synthase), a Potential Target for the Treatment of Hormone Dependent and Hormone Independent Malignancies". It was reported that six drugs, including naproxen, ibuprofen, flurbiprofen, zomepirac, meclofenamic acid, and sulindac, had AKR1C3 inhibitory activity.
[0014] Mol Pharmacol 67:60-68, 2005, "Development of Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug Analogs and Steroid Carboxylates Selective for Human Aldo-Keto Reductase Isoforms: Potential Antineoplastic Agents That Work Independently of Cyclooxygenase Isozymes", reported that celecoxib and mefenamic acid have AKR1C3 inhibitory activity.
[0015] But after these non-steroidal analgesics inhibit AKR1C3 activity, will they affect the process by which AKR1C3 enzyme metabolizes AST-3424 and other similar AKR1C3-activated anticancer prodrug compounds into effective AST2660, thereby affecting the efficacy of AST-3424?
[0016] In response to this, the applicant conducted in vivo and in vitro experiments, which demonstrated that certain non-steroidal analgesics, if used in combination with AST-3424, would affect the efficacy of AST-3424, while other non-steroidal analgesics would not.
[0017] Cancer patients often experience pain for various reasons. Clinically, pain is common in patients at any stage of cancer, but it is particularly prevalent in advanced cancer. Data show that approximately 34% of clinically cured cancer patients experience pain, while approximately 25% of newly diagnosed cancer patients experience pain. During treatment, 30% to 50% of patients experience pain, and the rate can reach 70% to 90% in advanced cancer patients. Because pain can severely impact patients' quality of life, most patients receive analgesics under the guidance of medical professionals. Symptomatic intervention and treatment are implemented according to the World Health Organization's three-step cancer pain relief ladder. In the first stage, oral analgesia is the primary treatment, primarily with common nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. In the second stage, if the first-step approach fails to alleviate pain, weaker opioids, such as codeine and extended-release tramadol, are used, as part of the second-step cancer pain treatment ladder. In the third stage, if none of the above-mentioned treatments provide pain relief, stronger opioids, such as oxycodone, morphine, and fentanyl, are used.
[0018] Considering that cancer-associated pain is very common, and that patients in clinical practice often use non-steroidal analgesics for intervention and symptomatic treatment of pain at the same time as taking cancer treatment drugs, the applicant proposed the following technical solution based on the above clinical trial results and the experimental results that some non-steroidal analgesics do not affect the efficacy of AST-3424.
[0019] The method comprises using a drug containing an AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compound or its salt, ester, solvate, or isotopomer in combination with a non-steroidal analgesic drug to treat cancer patients with pain.
[0020] The invention discloses pharmaceutical uses of an AKR1C3-activated anticancer prodrug compound or its salts, esters, solvates and isotope isomers, which are used to prepare therapeutic drugs for treating cancer patients with pain in combination with non-steroidal analgesics.
[0021] The present invention also provides a pharmaceutical combination comprising the following substances as active ingredients:
[0022] AKR1C3 activating prodrug compound or its salt, ester, solvate, isotope isomer, and
[0023] nonsteroidal analgesics;
[0024] The active ingredients are formulated together or separately for combined use, simultaneous use or separate use.
[0025] The drug combination of the present invention is used for treating cancer or tumor patients with pain.
[0026] AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compounds are compounds that metabolize DNA alkylating agents under conditions of AKR1C3 enzyme activation.
[0027] In general, AKR1C3 activating anticancer prodrug compounds satisfy at least one of the following conditions, but are not limited to:
[0028] A. In the presence of AKR1C3 inhibitors (e.g., compound 36 in Bioorganic and Medicinal Chemistry, 2014: 967-977) The cancer cell proliferation inhibition effect of a compound detected in the absence of an AKR1C3 inhibitor was less than that detected in the absence of an AKR1C3 inhibitor. 50 When quantifying, if the IC value of a compound against a cancer cell line in the presence of an AKR1C3 inhibitor is 50 Greater than the IC in the absence of AKR1C3 inhibitors 50 , it can be determined that the compound is an anticancer drug activated by AKR1C3 (lysis-prodrug). Specific examples are as follows:

[0037] The drug described herein refers to a medicine or preparation, wherein the prepared medicine contains an active ingredient compound or a salt or solvate thereof within a specific dosage range, and / or the prepared medicine is in a specific dosage form and is administered by a specific administration method.
[0038] The prepared medicine, drug, preparation may also include pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvants or excipients. The medicine may be in any dosage form for clinical use, such as tablets, suppositories, dispersible tablets, enteric-coated tablets, chewable tablets, orally disintegrating tablets, capsules, sugar-coated tablets, granules, dry powders, oral solutions, small needles for injection, freeze-dried powder for injection, or large infusions. Depending on the specific dosage form and mode of administration, the pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvants or excipients in the medicine may include one or more of the following: diluents, solubilizers, disintegrants, suspending agents, lubricants, adhesives, fillers, flavorings, sweeteners, antioxidants, surfactants, preservatives, wrappers, and pigments.
[0039] Monotherapy refers to single-drug therapy. Combination therapy refers to combined drug therapy. Monotherapy refers to the use of only one anticancer drug in a single course of treatment. Combination therapy refers to the use of two or more anticancer drugs simultaneously or sequentially in a single course of treatment.
[0040] Generally speaking, combination therapy requires exploring different dosages and dosing cycles based on the characteristics of the disease and the types of combined drugs. Only based on the above conditions can the combination drug treatment plan explored achieve better therapeutic effects than single drug treatment.
[0041] The drug dosage, administration cycle and administration schedule of monotherapy and combination therapy are explored through clinical trials.
[0042] Regarding the compounds described herein, if their chemical structures contain organic amine structures and P=O double bond structures, the compounds may also be administered in the form of salts. That is, the present invention provides pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds, which may be basic salts, including salts formed with inorganic bases (e.g., alkali metal hydroxides, alkaline earth metal hydroxides, etc.) or with organic bases (e.g., monoethanolamine, diethanolamine, or triethanolamine, etc.). Alternatively, the salts may be acidic salts, including salts formed with inorganic acids (e.g., hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydroiodic acid, nitric acid, perchloric acid, sulfuric acid, or phosphoric acid, etc.) or with organic acids (e.g., methanesulfonic acid, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, fumaric acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, citric acid, etc.). Similarly, they may react with certain acids or alcohols to form esters, and thus the compounds may also be administered in the form of esters.
[0043] Similarly, the above-mentioned compound concept also includes various crystal forms of the compound, such as PCT application PCT / CN2023 / 080261 and publication WO2023169462A1, which disclose a crystal form of an AKR1C3-activated anticancer prodrug compound:
[0044] For various reasons, these compounds may also form solvates with certain solvents, such as hydrates or alcoholates, and thus the compounds may also be administered in the form of solvates. The selection and preparation of acceptable salts, esters and solvates of compounds are well known in the art.

[0233] Furthermore, the AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compound is selected from the compounds of the following structures:
[0234] Preferably, according to the experimental results in the examples, the drug containing the AKR1C3 activating anticancer prodrug compound or its salt, ester, solvate, isotopomer isomer is administered with a non-steroidal analgesic drug at intervals or simultaneously.
[0235] In the examples, experiments confirmed that some nonsteroidal analgesics reported in the literature as inhibitors of the AKR1C3 enzyme significantly affect the anti-tumor cell proliferation activity of the AKR1C3 enzyme-activated drug AST-3424, while some nonsteroidal analgesics reported in the literature as inhibitors of the AKR1C3 enzyme do not affect the anti-tumor cell proliferation activity of the AKR1C3 enzyme-activated drug AST-3424. Drugs that affect the anti-tumor cell proliferation activity of the AKR1C3 enzyme-activated drug AST-3424 can eliminate this effect after washing the cells. Based on this, it is speculated that the effect will weaken or disappear after the influencing drug disappears or is eliminated. Therefore:
[0236] Nonsteroidal analgesic drugs that do not affect the anti-tumor cell proliferation activity of AST-3424, a drug that activates AKR1C3 enzymes, can be administered simultaneously with AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compounds;
[0237] Nonsteroidal analgesics that affect the anti-tumor cell proliferation activity of AST-3424, a drug that activates AKR1C3 enzymes, cannot be administered simultaneously with AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compounds. They should be administered after a period of time to allow the nonsteroidal analgesics to be metabolized and eliminated.
[0238] Simultaneous administration is not strictly required. Instead, the non-steroidal analgesic drug is administered during a period when the drug containing the AKR1C3-activated anticancer prodrug compound has not been completely metabolized, that is, the drug is still in the body, and the drug containing the AKR1C3-activated anticancer prodrug compound is administered during a period when the non-steroidal analgesic drug has not been completely metabolized, that is, the drug is still in the body.
[0239] Administer at intervals, including two situations:
[0240] When the patient has been taking nonsteroidal analgesics, the drug containing the AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compound or its salt, ester, solvate, or isotope isomer should be administered only after the nonsteroidal analgesics have been eliminated;
[0241] When the patient has been administered a drug containing an AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compound or its salt, ester, solvate, or isotope isomer, the nonsteroidal analgesic drug should be administered only after the AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compound or its salt, ester, solvate, or isotope isomer is activated.
[0242] Preferably, when the patient has been administered a drug containing an AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compound or a salt, ester, solvate, or isotopomer thereof, the nonsteroidal analgesic drug should be administered 1.33-1.75 hours after the start of drug infusion.
[0243] Compounds of structural formula 1 / 2 are the same as AST-3424, both being prodrugs of AST-2660. They are activated by the AKR1C3 enzyme (involved by NADPH) to produce AST-2660 (a DNA alkylating agent) to exert anticancer effects:
[0244] The compounds of structural formula 3 are all nitrogen mustard analogs A prodrug of AKR1C3, which is activated by NADPH to produce a nitrogen mustard analogue. (a DNA alkylating agent) exerts anti-cancer effects:
[0245] The compound of structural formula 4 is the same as AST-3424, both being prodrugs of AST-2660. It is activated by the AKR1C3 enzyme (involved by NADPH) to produce AST-2660 (a DNA alkylating agent) to exert anticancer effects:
[0246] The compound of structural formula 5 is similar to AST-3424 and is a prodrug of a phosphamidonate alkylating agent. It is activated by the AKR1C3 enzyme (involving NADPH) to produce T (a phosphamidonate alkylating agent, AST-2660 is a phosphamidonate alkylating agent) to exert anticancer effects:
[0247] The compound of structural formula 6 is similar to AST-3424 and is a prodrug of AST-2660. It is activated by the AKR1C3 enzyme (involved by NADPH) to produce AST-2660, which exerts an anti-cancer effect:
[0248] The compounds of structural formula 7 / 8 / 11 are similar to AST-3424 and are activated by the AKR1C3 enzyme (with the involvement of NADPH) to produce drugs such as AST-2660, paclitaxel or camptothecin, thereby exerting anti-cancer effects.
[0249] The compound of structural formula 9 / 10 is a prodrug of a KARS inhibitor, which is activated by the action of the AKR1C3 enzyme (with the involvement of NADPH) to produce a KARS inhibitor drug and exert an anti-cancer effect.
[0250] Based on the activation reactions of the above 11 types of AKR1C3-activated anticancer prodrug compounds, it can be seen that the first stage of activation of this type of compound requires the participation of the AKR1C3 enzyme. After the activation is completed, even if non-steroidal analgesics have an inhibitory effect on the AKR1C3 enzyme, it will not affect the above activation process, that is, the AKR1C3-activated anticancer prodrug compounds can exert their efficacy.
[0251] Specifically, a drug containing AST-3424, AST-3423 or AST-2870 or a salt, ester, solvate or isotope isomer thereof is administered simultaneously with ibuprofen or celecoxib.

[0315] Experimental Conclusion
[0316] By comparison, it can be found that the combination of AST-3424 with celecoxib and ibuprofen has almost no effect on the cell proliferation inhibitory activity of AST-3424 (AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compound), while the combination of AST-3424 with naproxen will significantly affect the cell proliferation inhibitory activity of AST-3424, but the effect is far lower than that of the AKR1C3-specific inhibitor TH-3021 reported in the literature.

[0350] Experimental Conclusion
[0351] Analysis of the effect of TH-3021 on intracellular AKR1C3 enzyme activation AST-3424 showed that:
[0352] First, Groups 1, 2, and 4 all demonstrated the compound's effect on the activation process of AST-3424. This is because TH-3021 was added to the cells 2 hours in advance. This process ensured that TH-3021 entered the cells and bound to the AKR1C3 enzyme, preventing AST-3424 from activating the AKR1C3 enzyme and inhibiting cell proliferation. This was because the AKR1C3 enzyme had already bound to TH-3021 and was unable to activate AST-3424.
[0353] Second, the effects of groups 2 and 4 were stronger, and IC 50 The numerical difference is 200-fold, with Group 1 being relatively weak at only 6-fold. Comparing the cell treatment process of Group 1 with that of Groups 2 and 4, it can be seen that after adding TH-3021 to the cell solution and culturing for 2 hours, this group immediately washed away the compound and re-added the culture medium and AST-3424 drug, resulting in the elution of TH-3021, which in turn affected the inhibitory effect of TH-3021 on the enzyme activation process of AST-3424. Therefore, the final effect was relatively small.
[0354] Third, because AST-3424 had already been in contact with the cells and cultured for 2 hours in Group 3, the drug had already entered the cells and was fully activated by the AKR1C3 enzyme in the cells, releasing AST-2660 that could inhibit cell proliferation. In this case, adding TH-3021 was no longer effective.
[0355] Analysis of the effect of Naproxen on intracellular AKR1C3 enzyme activation AST-3424 showed that:
[0356] First, both Groups 2 and 4 demonstrated the compound's effect on the activation process. This is because in Group 2, naproxen and AST-3424 were added to the cell system simultaneously and incubated for 2 hours, while in Group 4, naproxen was added to the cell system and incubated for 2 hours before AST-3424 was added. In other words, both groups completed the binding inhibition of the AKR1C3 enzyme in the cells within a 2-hour incubation period after contact with the cells, thereby affecting the process of enzyme activation and metabolism of AST-3424 to AST-2660.
[0357] Second, in Group 3, similar to TH-3021, AST-3424 had already been in contact with the cells and cultured for 2 hours, causing the drug to enter the cells and be fully activated by the AKR1C3 enzyme within the cells, releasing AST-2660, which can inhibit cell proliferation. In this case, the addition of naproxen was ineffective.
[0358] Third, due to the different chemical structures of naproxen and TH-3021, its ability to enter cells, bind to the AKR1C3 enzyme in cells, and ultimately affect the enzyme activation of AST-3424 to metabolize AST-2660 are far less than TH-3021. Therefore, naproxen can basically not achieve the pre-inhibition of the AKR1C3 enzyme in cells after culturing with cells for 2 hours, and the subsequent washing away of the compound directly leads to the disappearance of its influence, and therefore cannot reflect the effect on the enzyme activation of AST-3424 to metabolize AST-2660.
[0359] In summary, we can find that:
[0360] TH-3021 has a much greater inhibitory effect on the process of AKR1C3 enzyme activating AST-3424 to metabolize AST-2660 than Naproxen;
[0361] If AST-3424 is added first and then cultured with cells, AKR1C3 will quickly activate AST-3424 to metabolize AST-2660. After a period of time (e.g., 2 hours in the experimental conditions), the conversion to AST-2660 is complete and retained in the cells. Adding naproxen or TH-3021 thereafter will not affect the final cell proliferation.
[0362] If an AKR1C3 enzyme inhibitor (Naproxen or TH-3021) is added first and incubated with cells for a period of time (e.g., 2 hours in the experimental conditions), binding of the inhibitor to the enzyme will occur. However, this binding is likely to be largely reversible. After the inhibitor is washed away, whether the process of AKR1C3 enzyme activating AST-3424 to metabolize AST-2660 is significantly affected depends on the inhibitor's inhibitory effect: strong inhibitors such as TH-3021 can still show a significant inhibitory effect on the enzyme activation process, while weak inhibitors such as Naproxen cannot exert an inhibitory effect on the enzyme activation process due to the short incubation time with cells.
[0363] If AST-3424 and AKR1C3 enzyme inhibitors (Naproxen or TH-3021) are added at the same time, the process of AKR1C3 enzyme activating AST-3424 to metabolize AST-2660 will be significantly affected.
[0364] Therefore, it can be clearly stated that for compounds that have the effect of inhibiting the process of AKR1C3 enzyme activating AST-3424 to metabolize AST-2660 (such as some non-steroidal analgesics), if the patient has already taken non-steroidal analgesics, then the drug containing the AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compound or its salt, ester, solvate, isotope isomer should be administered after the non-steroidal analgesics are eliminated. This prevents these drugs from inhibiting the process of AKR1C3 enzyme activating AST-3424 to metabolize AST-2660;
[0365] When the patient has been administered a drug containing an AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compound or its salt, ester, solvate, or isotope isomer, the nonsteroidal analgesic drug should be administered only after the AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compound is completely or substantially partially activated by enzymes to metabolize AST2660.
[0366] 2. Animal Model Efficacy and Safety Evaluation Experiment of Celecoxib Combined with AST-3424
[0367] To further investigate the in vivo efficacy and safety of the non-steroidal analgesic drug celecoxib, which does not significantly affect the cell proliferation inhibitory activity of AKR1C3-activating anticancer prodrug compounds such as AST-3424, an animal model experiment was conducted using celecoxib in combination with AST-3424.
[0368] Pharmacodynamics of the test substances AST-3424 and Celecoxib as monotherapy and in combination in the human lung cancer NCI-H460 subcutaneous xenograft BALB / c nude female mouse model.
[0369] BALB / c nude mice were subcutaneously inoculated with human lung cancer NCI-H460 cells to establish a subcutaneous human lung cancer tumor model. Seven groups, each containing five mice, were divided into the test drug Celecoxib 50 mg / kg and 100 mg / kg groups, the AST-3424 2.5 mg / kg group, and different combinations of Celecoxib 50 mg / kg or 100 mg / kg with AST-3424 2.5 mg / kg. A 0.5% sodium carboxymethylcellulose vehicle control group was also included. The 0.5% sodium carboxymethylcellulose vehicle control group and the Celecoxib 50 mg / kg and 100 mg / kg groups were administered via oral gavage once daily for 15 days, with observation for 13 days. The AST-3424 2.5 mg / kg group was administered via tail vein injection once weekly for three weeks, with observation for seven days. Celecoxib 50 mg / kg or 100 mg / kg and AST-3424 2.5 mg / kg were administered by oral gavage once a day for 15 days. AST-3424 2.5 mg / kg in the combination treatment group was administered by tail vein injection once a week for three weeks, and the patients were observed for 7 days.
[0370] After tumor inoculation, tumor growth was routinely monitored, and tumor volume and mouse body weight were measured. Efficacy was evaluated based on the relative tumor inhibition rate (TGI). Specific results are shown in Table 3 and Figure 3 below, with specific efficacy analysis data for 30 days after inoculation (end of dosing) shown in Table 4.
[0371] The body weights of the mice were measured after inoculation, and the results are shown in Table 5 and Figure 4.

[0382] Experimental Conclusion
[0383] Comparison revealed that the TGI of AST-3424 alone was 60.75%, while the TGI did not decrease when combined with celccoxib, regardless of whether the drug was administered first or later. Furthermore, the tumor inhibition rate of the combination group was not significantly different from that of the AST-3424 monotherapy group. This indicates that the combination of the two drugs did not affect the tumor growth inhibition effect of AST-3424. Both AST-3424 monotherapy and the combination were well tolerated by mice.

[0386] OBI-3424 and OBI-2660 concentrations were analyzed in blood samples collected on day 1 of cycle 1 (pretreatment); 15 minutes after the start of infusion; at the end of infusion (EOI); and 15, 30, 60, and 90 minutes and 2, 4, 6, and 8 hours after treatment. The mean plasma concentration versus time curves of a single dose of OBI-3424 and OBI-2660 are shown in Figure 5, and the pharmacokinetic parameters of OBI-3424 and OBI-2660 are summarized in Table 6.
[0387] Maximum serum concentrations (Cmax) of OBI-3424 generally occurred at the end of a 30-minute drug infusion; OBI-2660 had a slight delay in reaching maximum concentrations compared to OBI-3424, with Cmax achieved between 1.33 and 1.75 hours after the start of the drug infusion.
[0388] OBI-3424 has a shorter half-life (0.20 to 0.74 hours), while OBI-2660 has a longer half-life (1.87 to 3.48 hours).
[0389] The mean clearance of OBI-3424 was 4.8 to 8.8 L / h / m 2 , with a distribution volume of 2.4 to 4.3 L / m 2 .
[0390] For OBI-3424 and OBI-2660, no accumulation of exposure (Cmax and area under the concentration-time curve) was observed between the two doses (Cycle 1 Day 1 and Cycle 1 Day 8).

At this time, the corresponding OBI-3424 is considered to be completely activated by the AKR1C3 enzyme and converted into OBI-2660. It is speculated that non-steroidal analgesics can be used at this time.
