Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of novel drug development, and in particular to a quinoxalinone derivative targeting poly (ADP ribose) polymerase and androgen receptor, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a treatment method that uses light of a specific wavelength to excite photosensitive molecules, inducing a "photodynamic" effect, thereby achieving anti-tumor effects. During the PDT process, photosensitive drugs generate highly active reactive oxygen species (ROS) through energy or electron transfer under light. These ROS can react with biological macromolecules in cells, causing oxidative damage, thereby inducing cytotoxicity and killing tumor cells.
[0003] Compared with traditional treatments, PDT has significant advantages, mainly in its ability to use the high temporal and spatial resolution of light for precise treatment, thereby reducing side effects. However, high concentrations of reduced glutathione in tumor cells can quickly scavenge ROS free radicals produced by photosensitive molecules, significantly weakening their efficacy. In addition, the generation of ROS by photosensitive molecules depends on the presence of molecular oxygen (O2), and the microenvironment of many solid tumors is hypoxic, which greatly reduces the therapeutic effect of PDT in hypoxic areas within the tumor.
[0004] Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is a type of ribozyme with glycosidase activity. It mainly modifies target molecules through poly (ADP-ribosylation) and participates in important biological processes such as DNA repair, transcriptional regulation, chromatin dynamics, hypoxia response, metabolic regulation, cell death and genome stability. The PARP family includes 18 members, among which PARP1 is the most critical member, responsible for about 80-90% of PARylation reactions in cells. In the process of DNA damage repair, PARP1 mainly acts as a sensor. When DNA breaks, the zinc finger structure of PARP1 can quickly bind to the damaged site and recruit repair-related proteins through poly (ADP-ribosylation) to initiate DNA repair. The catalytic activity of PARP1 is activated after DNA damage, promoting PARylation modification reactions, synthesizing PAR chains, modifying itself and target molecules such as histones and non-histones, thereby regulating the DNA repair process. Therefore, PARP1 plays a vital role in the DNA repair process, and the absence of the PARP1 gene will lead to the failure of the base excision repair (BER) pathway. If PARP1 is defective in function, DNA damage will accumulate, eventually causing cell cycle arrest and possibly cell death, which makes PARP an important target in tumor treatment and promotes the research and development of PARP inhibitors.
[0005] PARP inhibitors inhibit the detachment of PARP protein from the DNA damage site by binding to the catalytic site of PARP1 or PARP2. PARP bound to DNA will cause replication fork stalling during DNA replication, hindering the normal progress of DNA replication, thereby inducing cell cycle arrest and ultimately leading to cell death. Currently, PARP inhibitors approved for clinical use include Olaparib, Niraparib, Fluzoparib and Pamiparib, which are mainly used for the treatment or maintenance treatment of tumors such as ovarian cancer, breast cancer and prostate cancer.
[0006] Prostate cancer is the most common malignant tumor in the male reproductive system. Androgens and their receptors (AR) play a vital role in the occurrence and development of prostate cancer. Therefore, androgen receptors and their related pathways have become key targets for the treatment of prostate cancer. Androgen receptor antagonists or anti-androgen drugs compete with testosterone (T) or dihydrotestosterone (DHT) to bind to the ligand binding pocket of AR, block the activation of AR signaling pathways, inhibit the transcription of downstream target genes, and prevent the synthesis of proteins required for tumor cell growth, thereby inhibiting the progression of prostate cancer. According to their chemical structures, AR antagonists can be divided into two categories: steroidal and non-steroidal. Steroidal AR antagonists are usually synthetic hydroxyprogesterone derivatives. Representative drugs include cyproterone acetate (CPA), which has a steroidal skeleton similar to DHT. Although these drugs have a high affinity for binding to AR, their clinical application is limited to a certain extent due to the possibility of cardiovascular and liver side effects. Non-steroidal AR antagonists are more widely used in clinical practice and have more significant therapeutic effects. The approved nonsteroidal AR antagonists on the market mainly target the C-terminal ligand binding region (LBP) of AR and exert their anti-tumor effects by blocking the signal transduction of AR. The first generation of nonsteroidal AR antagonists include flutamide, nilutamide and bicalutamide, while the second generation of nonsteroidal AR antagonists include enzalutamide, apalutamide and darolutamide.
[0007] (Darolutamide). Although the first generation of non-steroidal AR antagonists have shortcomings such as weak affinity and easy to induce drug resistance, the second generation of drugs have overcome these shortcomings and shown better clinical effects. Apalutamide is an analogue of enzalutamide. Both contain the core structure of benzothiohydantoin. Studies have shown that these drugs can not only competitively bind to AR, but also inhibit the nuclear localization function of AR and interfere with the binding of AR complex to DNA, thereby enhancing its anti-tumor effect.
[0008] The progress of photodynamic therapy (PDT), the research and development of PARP inhibitors and androgen receptor antagonists have greatly promoted the progress of malignant tumor treatment. However, there are still many challenges in clinical application. Specifically, during the treatment of photosensitizers, the high concentration of reduced glutathione in tumor cells will quickly remove the reactive oxygen free radicals produced by photosensitive molecules under light, thereby weakening the therapeutic effect. In addition, the hypoxic microenvironment inside the tumor also has a significant effect on the efficacy of photodynamic therapy. Compared with traditional chemotherapy drugs, targeted small molecule inhibitors usually cause fewer side effects and are better tolerated by patients by inhibiting the function of key proteins in tumor cells. However, off-target effects and drug resistance are still difficult problems that need to be solved in the field of tumor treatment. Summary of the invention

[0111] The bioactive photosensitizer of the present invention has good fluorescence efficiency and strong ability to generate active oxygen species under blue light excitation, and can be well used in image-guided photodynamic therapy.
[0112] In summary, photosensitizers convert oxygen around tumor tissue into singlet oxygen after being excited by light of a specific wavelength, thereby exerting a photodynamic therapy effect. However, tumor tissue is usually hypoxic, which limits the therapeutic effect of photosensitizers. The active photosensitizer provided by the present invention, as a PARP inhibitor at the same time, can induce cell synthetic lethality. This process can increase the oxidation state and oxygen concentration in the cell, improve the hypoxic microenvironment inside the tumor, and further enhance the photodynamic therapy effect, that is, PDT therapy and PARP inhibitors synergize.
