Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of anticancer drug technology and relates to a TEAD inhibitor. Background Technology

[0002] The Hippo signaling pathway is one of the core mechanisms regulating organ development, tissue homeostasis, and regeneration and repair in organisms. As a conserved inhibitory pathway, it maintains organ size and functional stability by precisely regulating the balance between cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. The core effector molecules of this pathway are Yes-associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional enhanced associated domain protein (TEAD), which achieve dynamic subcellular localization regulation through phosphorylation modification. When the Hippo pathway is activated, YAP is phosphorylated and retained in the cytoplasm, either by binding to 14-3-3 protein or by proteasome degradation. When the Hippo signaling pathway is inhibited, YAP phosphorylation levels decrease, meaning that unphosphorylated YAP enters the nucleus and binds to TEAD to form a complex, activating the transcription and expression of downstream target genes that promote cell proliferation and inhibit apoptosis. This regulatory network plays a crucial role in both developmental biology and cancer development.

[0003] Recent studies have found that excessive activation of YAP is closely related to the occurrence and development of various malignant tumors. In solid tumors such as breast cancer, fallopian tube cancer, germ cell cancer, and kidney cancer, YAP drives abnormal tumor cell proliferation, evasion of apoptosis, and promotes metastasis by continuously activating TEAD-dependent transcriptional programs. Clinical data show that high YAP expression is significantly associated with poor prognosis in patients with gastric cancer, colon cancer, and other cancers. Therefore, targeted intervention of YAP-TEAD interaction is considered a highly promising anti-cancer strategy. As the core transcriptional partner of YAP, the activity of TEAD directly determines the expression intensity of downstream oncogenes, making it a key target for drug development.

[0004] Although initial progress has been made in the development of TEAD inhibitors, several challenges remain: First, the variety of inhibitors is limited, with only a few compounds currently in preclinical research, and most are structurally modified based on flufenamic acid backbones, resulting in insufficient chemical diversity and difficulty in overcoming efficacy bottlenecks. Second, the activity and selectivity of inhibitors need improvement; existing inhibitors exhibit only micromolar inhibitory activity against TEAD and may have off-target effects, limiting their in vivo antitumor efficacy. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a TEAD inhibitor, thereby solving the technical problems that the existing TEAD-targeting inhibitors have a single structural type, poor inhibitory activity against TEAD, and low selectivity.

[0006] This invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] A TEAD inhibitor comprising a compound of general formula (I), its stereoisomer or a salt thereof, or a compound of general formula (II), its stereoisomer or a salt thereof:

[0008]

[0009] Wherein, the R1 group is a substituted alkyl or substituted acyl group; the R2 group is one of H, methyl, ethyl and benzyl; X1 is any one of H, Cl and Br, and X2 is H or Cl;

[0010]

[0011] Wherein, the R3 group is a substituted alkyl or substituted acyl group; the X3 is H, Cl, Br, Any one of them; X4 is H or Cl.

[0012] Preferably, the R1 group is a cycloalkyl-substituted alkyl group, an aromatic ring-substituted alkyl group, an alkyl-substituted acyl group, or an aromatic ring-substituted acyl group.

[0013] Preferably, the R1 base is: as well as Any one of them.

[0014] Preferably, the R1 base is as well as Any one of them.

[0015] Preferably, the R3 group is a cycloalkyl-substituted alkyl group, an aromatic ring-substituted alkyl group, a cycloalkyl-substituted acyl group, or an aromatic ring-substituted acyl group.

[0016] Preferably, the R3 base is as well as Any one of them.

[0017] A pharmaceutical composition comprising one of the above-described TEAD inhibitors and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, diluents, or excipients; the pharmaceutical composition is formulated into tablets, capsules, soft capsules, or injections by adding excipients to one of the above-described TEAD inhibitors; the excipients include one or more of additives, stabilizers, solubilizers, lubricants, and disintegrants.

[0018] The above-mentioned TEAD inhibitor is used in the preparation of TEAD inhibitor drugs or drugs that inhibit TEAD-YAP protein-protein interactions.

[0019] The use of the above-mentioned TEAD inhibitor or the above-mentioned pharmaceutical composition in the preparation of cancer drugs; characterized in that the cancer includes any one of breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, thyroid cancer, seminoma, melanoma, bladder cancer, liver cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, kidney cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, prostate cancer, glioma, myelodysplastic syndrome, and acute myeloid leukemia.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0021] Based on the three-dimensional structural features of the TEAD palmitoylation pocket, this scheme designs novel derivatives comprising compounds of general formula (I) or general formula (II), their stereoisomers, or salts thereof: Among them, general formula (I) is a 2-phenoxyacetic acid derivative, and general formula (II) is an N-phenylacrylamide derivative. These two types of compounds achieve highly efficient and specific inhibition of TEAD through differentiated action modes. In the 2-phenoxyacetic acid derivative, the substituted phenyl moiety penetrates deep into the hydrophobic region inside the palmitoylation pocket. By introducing different substituents and key amino acid residues in the hydrophobic region (such as leucine and isoleucine), multiple hydrophobic interactions are formed, significantly enhancing the binding affinity. Simultaneously, its carboxylic acid group is precisely positioned in the hydrophilic region at the pocket entrance, forming hydrogen bonds or ionic interactions with conserved cysteine ​​and lysine residues, further stabilizing the complex structure. For the N-phenylacrylamide derivative, its acrylamide group covalently binds to the cysteine ​​residues at the palmitoylation site of TEAD through a Michael addition reaction, forming an irreversible inhibitory effect. This covalent binding mode not only significantly improves the inhibitory activity but also reduces the off-target risk by specifically targeting cysteine. These two types of compounds, through a multi-dimensional mechanism involving hydrophobic, hydrophilic, and covalent interactions, overcome the limitations of existing inhibitors that rely solely on single non-covalent interactions. They provide two novel skeletons—carboxylic acids and acrylamides—enriching the structural types of TEAD inhibitors. Furthermore, through precise design targeting different regions of the palmitoylation pocket (the hydrophobic core region and the hydrophilic entrance region), they achieve more efficient and specific inhibition of TEAD transcriptional activity. This provides a diverse library of candidate compounds for developing highly active and selective antitumor drugs, effectively solving the problems of insufficient inhibitor activity, low selectivity, and structural homogeneity in existing technologies.

[0444] Experimental instruments: centrifuge purchased from Eppendorf, CO2 incubator purchased from Thermo, biosafety cabinet purchased from Shanghai Boxun Company, pipettes purchased from Eppendorf, and ELISA reader purchased from BioTek.

[0445] Experimental Methods: A dual-luciferase reporter assay was used to test the inhibitory effect of the compounds in this study on TEAD transcriptional activity in HEK293T cells. HEK293T cells were transfected with 8×GTIIC-luciferase plasmid and pRL-CMV, which express firefly luciferase and kidney luciferase, respectively. The relative fluorescence intensity was determined by measuring the fluorescence intensity of firefly and kidney luciferase and calculating their ratio to characterize TEAD transcriptional activity. The inhibition rate of different compounds on TEAD transcriptional activity was also calculated.

[0447] HEK293T cells were cultured in DMEM medium containing 10% FBS and 1% penicillin-streptomycin at 37°C and 5% CO2. HEK293T cells were seeded at a density of 3000 cells / well in 96-well plates and cultured overnight at 37°C and 5% CO2. After cell attachment, the medium was discarded, and 50 ng of 8×GTIIC-luciferase plasmid and 0.5 ng of pRL-CMV plasmid were transfected into HEK293T cells using Lipofectamine 2000. After 4 h of transfection at 37°C and 5% CO2, the transfection reagents were discarded, and 50 μmol / L or 5 μmol / L solutions of the respective compounds were added. A positive control (0.1‰ DMSO) and a negative control (no plasmid transfection) were also included, and the cells were cultured for another 24 h at 37°C and 5% CO2. After discarding the culture medium, the fluorescence intensity of fireflies and sea urchins was measured on a microplate reader using the Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay kit. The ratio between the two was calculated, and the inhibition rate of different compounds on TEAD transcriptional activity was further calculated.
