Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and particularly relates to the application of Venetoclax combined with Regorafenib in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. Background Art

[0002] Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous hematological malignancy that can affect people of all ages, most commonly the elderly. The therapeutic effect of traditional chemotherapy drugs is limited, the clinical outcomes of AML patients are still not ideal, the recurrence rate is relatively high, and the sensitivity to chemotherapy drugs is lost after recurrence, resulting in patients dying from drug resistance and various complications, which prompts people to search for additional synergistic treatment principles.

[0003] Venetoclax (ABT-199) is a highly selective Bcl-2 inhibitor. Although Venetoclax is combined with DNA hypomethylating agents or low-dose cytarabine, the initial response rate of AML patients is high. However, the heterogeneity of AML cells and complex anti-apoptotic mechanisms make patients develop resistance to ABT-199, or the monotherapy effect is limited, and the condition of most patients will relapse, develop drug resistance and eventually die. Therefore, it is necessary to further study the drug resistance mechanism of Venetoclax to determine the optimal dose of Venetoclax for AML treatment, search for new combination treatment strategies, enhance the anti-AML activity of Venetoclax, and improve the prognosis of AML patients. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In the prior art, some AML patients show natural resistance or acquired resistance to Venetoclax, which is a huge obstacle to the clinical application of Venetoclax in the treatment of AML. The present invention intends to use a novel small molecule inhibitor to enhance the activity of Venetoclax to achieve the goal of treating AML and prolonging the life of patients.

[0005] In order to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides the following technical solutions.

[0006] The present invention provides the application of a Bcl-2 inhibitor combined with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor in the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for preventing and treating leukemia.

[0007] Further, the tyrosine kinase inhibitor is in the form of an oral small molecule multi-target.

[0008] Further, the tyrosine kinase inhibitor includes Imatinib, Dasatinib, Nilotinib, Sunitinib, Regorafenib, Bosutinib, Regorafenib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0009] Further, the Bcl-2 inhibitor includes venetoclax, orelabrutinib, Lisaftoclax, APG-2575, Tazemetostat or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0010] Further, the tyrosine kinase inhibitor is regorafenib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0011] Further, the Bcl-2 inhibitor is venetoclax or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0012] Further, the leukemia includes acute leukemia, chronic leukemia, hairy cell leukemia, and prolymphocytic leukemia.

[0013] Further, the acute leukemia includes acute lymphoblastic leukemia L1, acute lymphoblastic leukemia L2, acute lymphoblastic leukemia L3, and acute myeloid leukemia.

[0014] Further, the acute myeloid leukemia includes granulocytic leukemia, erythroleukemia, and megakaryocytic leukemia.

[0015] Further, the chronic leukemia includes chronic lymphocytic leukemia and chronic myeloid leukemia.

[0016] Further, the mass ratio of the Bcl-2 inhibitor to the tyrosine kinase inhibitor is 8:1 - 2:1.

[0017] Further, the concentration range of the Bcl-2 inhibitor is 1 - 2 μM.

[0018] Further, the concentration range of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor is 0.125 - 0.5 μM.

[0019] In some embodiments, the concentration of the Bcl-2 inhibitor is 1 μM, 1.1 μM, 1.2 μM, 1.3 μM, 1.4 μM, 1.5 μM, 1.6 μM, 1.7 μM, 1.8 μM, 1.9 μM, 2 μM. In some embodiments, the concentration of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor is 0.125 μM, 0.2 μM, 0.25 μM, 0.3 μM, 0.35 μM, 0.375 μM, 0.4 μM, 0.45 μM, 0.5 μM. In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the Bcl-2 inhibitor to the tyrosine kinase inhibitor is 8:1, 7:1, 6:1, 5:1, 4:1, 3:1, 2:1.

[0020] In the present invention, the "μM" used represents micromolar concentration. μ: the Greek letter "mu", representing the SI prefix "micro-", i.e., 10⁻ 6(parts per million), M: represents molar concentration (mol / L), that is, the amount of substance of the solute in each liter of solution. Therefore, 1 μM = 10⁻ 6 mol / L, that is, each liter of solution contains 1 micromole of solute.

[0021] In some embodiments, venetoclax is combined with regorafenib in a manner that enhances the activity of regorafenib, thereby enhancing the therapeutic effect on leukemia. In some embodiments, the combination of venetoclax and regorafenib produces a synergistic effect, significantly enhancing the efficacy of the combination of the drugs.

[0022] As used herein, the phrase "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to those salts of a compound of interest that are safe and effective upon topical application in mammals and have the desired biological activity.

Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include, but are not limited to, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, nitrate, sulfate, bisulfate, phosphate, acid phosphate, isonicotinate, acetate, lactate, salicylate, citrate, tartrate, pantothenate, bitartrate, ascorbate, succinate, maleate, gentisinate, fumarate, gluconate, glucuronate, saccharate, formate, benzoate, glutamate, mesylate, esylate, benzenesulfonate, p-toluenesulfonate, and pamoate (i.e., 1,1'-methylene-bis-(2-hydroxy-3-naphthoate)). Certain compounds used in the present invention can form pharmaceutically acceptable salts with various amino acids. Suitable base salts include, but are not limited to: aluminum, calcium, lithium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, zinc, and diethanolamine salts. A review of pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be found in the literature listed: BERGE et al., 66 J. PHARM. SCI. 1-19 (1977).

[0023] The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating leukemia, which comprises a Bcl-2 inhibitor and a tyrosine kinase inhibitor as described above, used in combination in a prophylactically effective amount or a therapeutically effective amount.

[0024] Furthermore, the pharmaceutical composition further comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

[0025] Furthermore, the excipient includes a carrier, adjuvant, excipient, diluent, or other liquid solvent, dispersion aid, suspension aid, surfactant, isotonic agent, thickening agent, emulsifying agent, preservative, solid binder, and lubricant.

[0026] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable excipients include any and all solvents, diluents, buffers (e.g., neutral buffered saline, or optionally Tris-HCl, acetate or phosphate buffers), solubilizers (e.g., polysorbate 80), colloids, dispersion media, vehicles, fillers, chelating agents (e.g., EDTA or glutathione), amino acids (e.g., glycine), proteins, disintegrants, binders, lubricants, wetting agents, stabilizers, emulsifiers, sweeteners, colorants, flavoring agents, aromatisers, thickeners, substances for achieving storage effects, coating agents, antifungal agents, preservatives (e.g., ThimerosalTM, benzyl alcohol), antioxidants (e.g., ascorbic acid, sodium metabisulfite), tonicity control agents, absorption delaying agents, adjuvants, bulking agents (e.g., lactose, mannitol), etc. The use of such media and reagents for formulating pharmaceutical compositions is well known in the art. The use of any conventional media or reagents is contemplated in the pharmaceutical composition unless it is incompatible with the active ingredient.

[0027] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition further comprises other drugs that can assist in the treatment of leukemia, specifically including anti-apoptotic agents, mitotic inhibitors (anti-microtubule drugs, representative drugs: vincristine (VCR), paclitaxel (PTX), which block cell division by interfering with tubulin function), immunomodulators (including glucocorticoids (such as prednisone) and monoclonal antibodies (such as rituximab), which enhance the anti-leukemia effect by regulating the immune response or targeting antigens such as CD20), alkylating agents (representative drugs: cyclophosphamide (CTX), busulfan, which inhibit the proliferation of leukemia cells by disrupting the DNA structure and are used in various leukemia chemotherapy regimens), anti-metabolites (representative drugs: methotrexate (MTX), cytarabine (Ara-C), which interfere with nucleic acid metabolism and are widely used in the induction and consolidation treatment of acute leukemia), topoisomerase inhibitors (representative drugs: etoposide (VP-16), irinotecan, which kill leukemia cells by inhibiting the activity of DNA replication-related enzymes), antibiotic drugs (anthracyclines, representative drugs: doxorubicin (ADM), daunorubicin (DNR), which intercalate into the DNA double helix to prevent replication and are the core drugs for acute leukemia chemotherapy), platinum compounds (such as carboplatin, oxaliplatin, which exert anti-leukemia effects by forming DNA cross-linking damage), hormonal drugs (glucocorticoids (dexamethasone) are used in the induction treatment of ALL, which can enhance the chemotherapy sensitivity and inhibit lymphocyte proliferation), targeted drugs (non-TKIs, such as FLT3 inhibitors (midostaurin), CD33 monoclonal antibody (gemtuzumab), which treat relapsed / refractory AML by targeting specific molecular targets), chemotherapy protectants (such as calcium folinate (an antidote for methotrexate), dexrazoxane (which reduces the cardiotoxicity of anthracyclines), which are used to reduce the side effects of chemotherapy).

[0028] In the present invention, a therapeutically effective amount refers to the lowest dose or dose range of a drug that can produce the expected therapeutic effect in a specific patient or population, while ensuring its safety (i.e., the toxicity or side effects are acceptable). This concept runs through drug research and development, clinical trials, and clinical practice, and the following core elements need to be considered comprehensively: 1. Balance between efficacy and toxicity: The core of a therapeutically effective amount lies in balancing the efficacy of the drug and its toxic and side effects. For example, the dose of the anti-tumor drug cytarabine (Ara-C) needs to be adjusted according to the type of leukemia: high doses are used for induction remission of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), but may cause myelosuppression, and the dose needs to be optimized through blood drug concentration monitoring. Similarly, immunomodulators such as interferon γ need to find a balance between enhancing the immune response and avoiding excessive inflammation. 2. Consideration of individual differences: The age, weight, metabolic capacity, genotype, and comorbidities of patients all affect the therapeutically effective amount. For example, elderly AML patients have lower tolerance to anthracyclines (such as daunorubicin), and the dose needs to be reduced to avoid cardiotoxicity. The dose of targeted drugs such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors (imatinib) needs to be adjusted according to the BCR-ABL gene mutation status to overcome drug resistance. 3. Drug mechanism of action and pharmacokinetics: The target and metabolic pathway of the drug directly affect the effective dose. For example: Alkylating agents (such as cyclophosphamide): Kill tumor cells by destroying the DNA structure, and the therapeutically effective amount needs to balance cytotoxicity and the repair ability of normal tissues. Nucleic acid drugs (such as cytarabine): As antimetabolites, they need to be continuously infused to maintain blood drug concentration and inhibit DNA synthesis. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (such as PD-1 antibodies): The dose needs to be adjusted according to the degree of immune cell infiltration in the tumor microenvironment to activate T cells while avoiding autoimmune reactions.

[0029] The present invention provides the use of a Bcl-2 inhibitor in combination with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor in the preparation of a product for inhibiting the proliferation of leukemia cells and promoting the apoptosis of leukemia cells.

[0030] The present invention provides a composition for inhibiting the proliferation of leukemia cells and promoting the apoptosis of leukemia cells, and the composition comprises the following components or is composed of the following component combinations:

[0031] 1) A first active ingredient, and the first active ingredient comprises a Bcl-2 inhibitor;

[0032] 2) A second active ingredient, and the second active ingredient comprises a tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

[0033] In the present invention, the interactions of drugs are classified into additive effect, synergistic effect, and antagonistic effect according to the effects when drugs are used in combination. Synergistic effect means that the effect when drugs used in combination is many times greater than that when used alone. Additive effect means that the effect when drugs used in combination is equivalent to that when used alone. Antagonistic effect means that the effect when drugs used in combination is smaller than that when used alone. In the combination use of the present invention, it is first discovered that the combination of the first preparation and the second preparation has a synergistic effect.
