Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of biomedicine, and in particular to a compound, a preparation method thereof, and medical applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] Liver cancer is a malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality. Treatment options primarily include surgical resection, interventional therapy, targeted drugs, and immunotherapy. However, due to the heterogeneity and high recurrence rate of liver cancer, the efficacy of existing treatments remains significantly limited, especially for patients with advanced liver cancer, who often have a poor prognosis.

[0003] Studies have shown that ubiquitin-specific protease 11 (USP11) stabilizes cancer-promoting proteins through deubiquitination, playing a key role in the proliferation, invasion, metastasis and chemotherapy resistance of liver cancer. Its high expression is significantly correlated with the malignancy and poor prognosis of liver cancer, making it a potential therapeutic target.

[0004] However, due to the high homology among USP family members, existing USP11 inhibitors have poor selectivity, which can easily lead to off-target effects and potential toxicity. Furthermore, they suffer from defects such as poor metabolic stability and low bioavailability, which severely limit their clinical application. Therefore, the development of highly selective USP11 inhibitors with excellent pharmacokinetic properties is an important direction for the current research and development of liver cancer therapeutics.

Cell activity was detected by CCK-8, and data were processed using GraphPad Prism 9 to calculate the IC 50 value.

[0090] The results are shown in Table 2. The compounds represented by Formula 6a to Formula 6e all have excellent in vitro anti-proliferative activity.

[0093] In Table 2, + represents greater than 1000 nM; ++ represents 1000-100 nM; and +++ represents less than 100 nM.

[0094] Example 8

[0095] Animal experiments were conducted using two hepatocellular carcinoma cell xenograft models (HEPG2 and HUH7) in BALB / c mice to evaluate the anti-tumor activity of the compounds in vivo. A subcutaneous tumor-bearing mouse model was constructed to evaluate the anti-tumor effects of the compounds represented by Formula 6a to Formula 6e, prepared by the methods of Examples 1 to 5, in BALB / c mice. The following procedures were used:

[0096] HEPG2 and HUH7 were cultured in a 37°C, 5% carbon dioxide incubator. All mice were housed under standard specific pathogen-free (SPF) conditions. BALB / c female mice aged 6 to 8 weeks were subcutaneously injected with HEPG2 and HUH7 cells. The mice were examined daily for tumor formation to determine tumor progression. When the tumors grew to a certain size, the mice were randomly divided into a control group and a treatment group, with 5 mice in each group. The treatment group received an intraperitoneal injection of 50 mpk of the compound. Tumor diameters were measured daily with a vernier caliper, and mouse weights were recorded. Tumor tissue was removed 21 days later, and the compound's anti-tumor effect was evaluated by changes in tumor volume.

[0097] The results are shown in Table 3. The compounds represented by Formula 6a to Formula 6e all have excellent in vivo anti-proliferative activity.

[0099]

[0100] In Table 3, + represents a tumor inhibition rate of less than 50%, ++ represents a tumor inhibition rate of 50% to 80%, and +++ represents a tumor inhibition rate of more than 80%.
