Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of biomedicine, and in particular, relates to an azithromycin prodrug compound for treating tumors. Background Art

[0002] Deoxycytidine kinase (DCK) is an enzyme with broad substrate specificity that phosphorylates pyrimidine and purine deoxynucleosides. It is a key enzyme in the salvage pathway of deoxynucleotide biosynthesis, maintaining normal DNA metabolism and phosphorylating a variety of antiviral and anticancer nucleoside analogs. These drugs are activated only upon phosphorylation, thereby inhibiting tumor growth. Over the past few decades, apoptosis has been extensively studied, and radiotherapy strategies targeting apoptosis have become an important approach to tumor treatment.

[0003] Azvudine (FNC) is a broad-spectrum RNA virus inhibitor. As a synthetic nucleoside analog of the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), it is metabolized intracellularly into a 5'-triphosphate metabolite (azvudine triphosphate) with antiviral activity. It can specifically act on the SARS-CoV-2 polymerase (RdRp). Its target is the viral RdRp, which can block the synthesis and replication of RNA chains in host cells by inhibiting the activity of RdRp. In July 2021, azivudine tablets were approved for marketing in my country for the treatment of adult HIV-1 infected patients with high viral loads. In July 2022, azivudine (FNC) was approved for the treatment of novel coronavirus infection.

[0004] Patent document CN201010506595.X discloses the use of azvudine (FNC) for treating tumors, such as colon cancer, liver cancer, gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, leukemia, and lymphoma. It was found that azvudine (FNC) has a significant inhibitory effect on various human cancer cells and animal transplanted tumors.

[0005] The present invention further studies Azvudine (FNC) on the basis of the existing technology, and develops an Azvudine prodrug compound for treating tumors. Summary of the Invention

However, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments disclosed herein can be practiced without these details. Under the understanding that this disclosure is considered to be an illustration of the claimed subject matter and is not intended to limit the appended claims to the specific embodiments shown, several embodiments are described below. The headings used throughout this disclosure are provided only for convenience and should not be interpreted as limiting the claims in any way. The embodiments illustrated under any heading may be combined with the embodiments illustrated under any other heading.

[0089] I. Definition

[0090] The terms "about" or "approximately" used in connection with a quantity are inclusive of the stated value and have the meaning dictated by the context (eg, includes the degree of error associated with measurement of the particular quantity).

[0091] Unless otherwise indicated, the compounds of the present invention may be interpreted to include, in addition to the specific structures of the compounds, pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds, their stereoisomers, isotope isomers (e.g., deuterated compounds), solvates, hydrates, prodrugs, and metabolites. In other words, pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds, their stereoisomers, isotope isomers, solvates, hydrates, prodrugs, and metabolites also fall within the scope of protection of the compounds.

[0092] "Prodrug" refers to a substance that is converted into the parent drug in vivo. In some cases, prodrugs are often used because they are easier to administer than the parent drug. For example, a prodrug may be bioavailable orally while the parent drug is not. In a pharmaceutical composition, a prodrug may also have a higher solubility than the parent drug. Examples of prodrugs, but not limited to, are any of the compounds administered in the form of an ester (prodrug) to facilitate transport across cell membranes, where water solubility is detrimental to migration, but once inside the cell where water solubility is beneficial, the ester is subsequently metabolically hydrolyzed to the active substance, the carboxylic acid. Another example of a prodrug may be a short peptide (polyamino acid) bonded to an acid group, wherein the peptide is metabolized to release the active moiety.

[0093] As used herein, the term "administer" generally refers to administering a composition to a subject to achieve delivery of the agent in or contained in the composition to a target site or site to be treated. Those of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that various approaches can be used for administering to a subject (e.g., mankind) under appropriate circumstances. For example, in some embodiments, administration can be parenteral. In some embodiments, administration can be by injection (e.g., intramuscular, intravenous, or subcutaneous injection). In some embodiments, administration can only involve a single dose. In some embodiments, administration can involve administering a fixed number of doses. In some embodiments, administration can involve intermittent (e.g., multiple doses separated in time) and / or periodic (e.g., single doses separated by a common time period) administration. In some embodiments, administration can involve continuous administration (e.g., perfusion) for at least a selected time period.

[0110] As used herein, the term "combination therapy" refers to those situations in which a subject receives two or more therapeutic or preventive regimens (e.g., two or more therapeutic or preventive agents) simultaneously. In some embodiments, the two or more regimens can be administered simultaneously; in some embodiments, such regimens can be administered sequentially (e.g., all "dosages" of the first regimen are administered before the second regimen of any dose is administered); in some embodiments, such agents are administered with overlapping dosing regimens. In some embodiments, "administering" a combination therapy may involve administering one or more agents or modes to subjects receiving other agents or modes in the combination. For clarity, combination therapy does not require that each agent be administered together in a single composition (or not even simultaneously), but in some embodiments, two or more agents or their active parts can be administered together in a combined composition, or even in a combined compound (e.g., as part of a single chemical complex or covalent entity).

[0111] As used herein, the term "comparable" refers to two or more agents, entities, situations, sets of conditions, etc. that may not be identical to one another but are sufficiently similar to allow comparisons to be made between them such that one skilled in the art would understand that conclusions can reasonably be drawn based on the observed differences or similarities. In some embodiments, comparable conditions, environments, individuals, or groups of populations are characterized by a plurality of substantially identical characteristics and one or a few slightly varied characteristics. One of ordinary skill in the art would understand, in context, what degree of identity is required for two or more such agents, entities, situations, sets of conditions, etc. to be considered comparable in any given case. For example, one of ordinary skill in the art would understand that environments, individuals, or groups of populations are comparable to one another when characterized by a sufficient number and type of substantially identical characteristics to warrant a reasonable conclusion that differences in results or observed phenomena obtained under or with different environments, individuals, or groups of populations are caused or indicated by changes in those varied characteristics.

[0112] Unless the context requires otherwise, throughout this disclosure and claims, the word "comprise" and variations such as "include" and "comprising" are to be construed in an open, inclusive sense, ie, to mean "including, but not limited to."

[0113] "Diastereomers" refers to stereoisomers that have two or more chiral centers or axes and whose molecules are not mirror images of each other. Diastereomers typically have different physical properties, such as melting points, boiling points, spectral properties, and reactivity. Mixtures of diastereomers can be separated under high-resolution analytical methods, such as electrophoresis and chromatography.

[0114] As used herein, the term "dosage form" refers to a physical discrete unit of an active agent (e.g., a therapeutic agent, a prophylactic agent, or a diagnostic agent) for administration to a subject. Typically, each such unit contains a predetermined amount of active agent. In some embodiments, this amount is a unit dose (or its entire portion) suitable for administration according to a dosage regimen that has been determined to be associated with an expectation or beneficial outcome when administered to a relevant population (i.e., with a preventive or therapeutic dosage regimen). It will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the total amount of the composition or medicament administered to a particular subject is determined by one or more attending physicians and may involve the administration of a variety of dosage forms.

[0115] Reference throughout this specification to "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment disclosed herein. Thus, the appearances of the phrases "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" in various places throughout this specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment. Furthermore, the particular features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0116] "Enantiomers" refers to two stereoisomers of a compound that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.

[0119] "Optional" or "optionally" means that the subsequently described event or circumstance may or may not occur, and that the description includes instances where said event or circumstance occurs and instances where said event or circumstance does not occur. For example, "optionally substituted heterocyclyl" means that the heterocyclyl may or may not be substituted, and that the description includes substituted heterocyclyls and heterocyclyls that are not substituted. It should be understood that when a variable is substituted, for example, as described by the phrase "(C1-C6)alkyl, alone or as part of a group, optionally substituted", the phrase means that the variable (C1-C6)alkyl can be substituted when alone, and the variable "(C1-C6)alkyl" can also be substituted when it is part of a larger group, such as aryl(C1-C6)alkyl or -(C1-C6)alkyl-SO2-(C1-C6)alkyl-(C3-C7)carbocyclic group. Similarly, other variables (eg, (C1-C6)alkenyl, (C1-C6)alkynyl, aryl, heteroaryl, heterocycle, etc.) may also be substituted "either individually or as part of a group" when stated.

[0120] As used herein, the term "oxo" refers to an oxygen atom attached as a substituent to a carbon atom through a double bond (=0).

[0232] Test Example 3: In vivo antitumor activity of the compounds of the present invention

[0233] The following method was used to determine the antitumor activity of the compounds of the present invention under in vivo conditions.

[0234] CT26 tumor cells were cultured in a suitable culture medium. Cells in the exponential growth phase were collected and inoculated subcutaneously on the right back of the experimental mice. Tumor growth was observed regularly after inoculation. The tumors were grown to an average volume of approximately 50 mm. 3 Mice were randomly divided into groups based on tumor size and body weight. The day of grouping was defined as Day 0. The test substance was administered orally once daily. Efficacy was evaluated by calculating the tumor volume inhibition rate (TGI) based on tumor volume, and safety was evaluated based on changes in animal body weight and mortality.

[0235] Our Example 8, at a dose of 2 mg / kg, demonstrated significant tumor inhibition in the CT-26 model, with a Day 16 TGI of 97%. This inhibitory effect was superior to that of azithromycin (FNC) at a dose of 1 mg / kg (TGI of 85%). Furthermore, Example 8 was well tolerated by the animals at this dose. Furthermore, two other compounds, Example 9 and Example 7, were evaluated in the CT-26 model. At a dose of 2 mg / kg, their TGIs were 69% and -28%, respectively, which were weaker than that of FNC at a dose of 1 mg / kg. All test groups were well tolerated by the animals.

[0236]

[0237]

[0238] 1 On the 16th day, the tumor tissue of the control group was too large, and the mice in the control group were subsequently sacrificed, so the TGI on the 16th day was compared.
