Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biomedicine, specifically relating to a selective HPK1 inhibitor, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Hematopoietic progenitor kinase 1 (HPK1), also known as mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 1 (MAP4K1), belongs to the serine / threonine kinase family. Originally cloned from hematopoietic progenitor cells, it is primarily expressed in hematopoietic cells such as T cells, B cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, neutrophils, and mast cells (Chen H, Guan X, He C, et al., Expert opinion on therapeutic targets, 2024, 28(4):237-250). Its kinase activity can be induced upon activation of the T cell receptor (TCR), B cell receptor (BCR), transforming growth factor receptor (TGF-βR), or Gs-coupled PGE2 receptors (EP2 and EP4), thereby regulating the functions of various immune cells and playing a crucial role in immune regulation.
[0003] HPK1 plays a regulatory role in the TCR signaling pathway. When T cell receptors recognize the pMHC complex, HPK1 rapidly participates in a series of complex and orderly phosphorylation cascades, regulating the threshold of T cell activation and thus affecting T cell proliferation and cytokine secretion profiles (Duan Y, Guo Z, Zhong W, et al., Future medicinal chemistry, 2024, 16(22):21-20). In addition, HPK1 participates in the molecular regulation of NK cell cytotoxicity and immune synapse formation, helping NK cells to exert cytotoxicity efficiently (Choi SW, Kwon JH, Yi E, et al., Advancedscience (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2024, 11(29):e2400920), and ensuring effective information transmission and cooperation between immune cells.
[0004] In the tumor microenvironment, HPK1 mediates the transduction of immunosuppressive signals, a key mechanism leading to T / NK cell exhaustion. In the tumor microenvironment, HPK1 is overactivated, thereby inhibiting the activity of T cells and NK cells. Inhibitors targeting HPK1 can reverse immune checkpoint blockade, enhance the infiltration of effector lymphocytes into tumor tissue, and increase their activity in killing tumor cells. Notably, the synergistic effect of HPK1 inhibitors and PD-1 / CTLA-4 inhibitors has been demonstrated in preclinical models, providing a theoretical basis for the development of combination therapy regimens (Cheng B, Li H, Hong Y, et al., European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2025, 286:117-289).
[0005] In the field of autoimmune diseases, the pathological mechanism of HPK1 is the opposite of that of tumor immunity. Taking rheumatoid arthritis as an example, during the pathogenesis, HPK1 is abnormally activated, leading to excessive proliferation of T cells, releasing a large number of pro-inflammatory factors that attack the body's own tissues and organs. The development of selective inhibitors holds promise for reshaping immune balance and inhibiting the production of pathological autoantibodies.
[0006] Rational drug design is based on the three-dimensional structure of the drug target. The structure of HPK1 drugs generally includes three parts: 1) a core portion that binds to the key hinge of HPK1; 2) a hydrophobic structure deep within the enzyme's active pocket; and 3) a side chain facing the solvent end (Vara, BA; Levi, SM; Achab, A, et al., ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2021, 12:653-661). It is noteworthy that HPK1 belongs to the MAP4K family and negatively regulates the TCR pathway, while its family member GLK (MAP4K3) has the opposite effect, promoting TCR pathway activation. Many small molecule HPK1 inhibitors reported in the literature, while exhibiting good HPK1 inhibitory activity, often neglect their inhibitory activity against GLK. For example, the substituted amino-aza-heteroaryl compound disclosed in patent (CN202280047006.7) as an inhibitor of hematopoietic progenitor kinase 1 (HPK1) still has unknown inhibitory activity against GLK. As kinases in the same family, HPK1 and GLK have very similar structures of their active sites, making it difficult to improve their enzyme selectivity. Summary of the Invention
