[0002] This disclosure relates to targeted pyrrolobenzodiazepines. (PBD) conjugates 3. Sequence List

[0003] This application contains a sequence list, which has been electronically submitted in XML format and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The XML copy was created on March 26, 2024, and is named “01368-0071-00PCT_SL”, with a size of 3,443 bytes. 4. Background Technology

[0004] Some pyrrolobenzodiazepines PBDs possess the ability to recognize and bind to specific DNA sequences; the preferred sequence is PuGPu. The first PBD antitumor antibiotic, amiodarone, was discovered in 1965 (Leimgruber et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 87, 5793-5795 (1965); Leimgruber et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 87, 5791-5793 (1965)). Since then, numerous naturally occurring PBDs have been reported, and more than a dozen synthetic routes have been developed to synthesize various analogs (Thurston et al., Chem. Rev. 1994, 433-465 (1994)). Family members include abenomycin (Hochlowski et al., J. Antibiotics, 40, 145-148 (1987)), checamycin (Konishi et al., J. Antibiotics, 37, 200-206 (1984)), DC-81 (Japanese Patent 58-180487; Thurston et al., Chem. Brit., 26, 767-772 (1990); Bose et al., Tetrahedron, 48, 751-758 (1992)), methylanisoxamycin (Kuminoto et al., J. Antibiotics, 33, 665-667 (1980)), neoanisoxamycin A and B (Takeuchi et al., J. Antibiotics, 29, 93-96 (1976)), and polomycin (Tsunakawa). PBD has the following general structure: (e.g., J. Antibiotics, 41, 1366-1373 (1988)), pravastatin (Shimizu et al., J. Antibiotics, 29, 2492-2503 (1982); Langley and Thurston, J. Org. Chem., 52, 91-97 (1987)), sibanamicin (DC-102) (Hara et al., J. Antibiotics, 41, 702-704 (1988); Itoh et al., J. Antibiotics, 41, 1281-1284 (1988)), siberiamycin (Leber et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 110, 2992-2993 (1988)), and tomatine (Arima et al., J. Antibiotics, 25, 437-444 (1972)).

[0005]

[0006] The number, type, and position of substituents on the aromatic A ring and pyrrolo C ring of PBD, as well as the saturation of the C ring, vary. The N10-C11 positions of the B ring contain imine (N=C), methylamine (NH-CH(OH)), or methylamine methyl ether (NH-CH(OMe)), which are electrophilic centers responsible for alkylating DNA. All known natural products have an (S) configuration at the chiral C11a position, which gives them a right-handed twist when viewed from the C ring to the A ring. This endows them with an appropriate three-dimensional shape with isohelicity in the minor groove of type B DNA, resulting in a tight fit at the binding site (Kohn, Antibiotics III. Springer-Verlag, New York, pp. 3-11 (1975); Hurley and Needham-Van Devanter, Acc. Chem. Res., 19, 230-237 (1986)). PBDs can form adducts in minor grooves, which allows them to interfere with DNA processing and thus can be used as antitumor agents.

[0007] The biological activity of these molecules can be enhanced by linking two PBD units together via their C8 / C′-hydroxyl functional groups through flexible alkylene linkers (Bose, DS et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 114, 4939-4941 (1992); Thurston, DE et al., J. Org. Chem., 61, 8141-8147 (1996)). PBD dimers are thought to form sequence-selective DNA damage, such as palindromic 5′-Pu-GATC-Py-3′ interstrand crosslinks (Smellie, M. et al., Biochemistry, 42, 8232-8239 (2003); Martin, C. et al., Biochemistry, 44, 4135-4147), which is considered a major reason for their biological activity. An example of a PBD dimer is SG2000 (SJG-136):

[0008]

[0009] (Gregson, S. et al., J. Med. Chem., 44, 737-748 (2001); Alley, MC et al., Cancer Research, 64, 6700-6706 (2004); Hartley, JA et al., Cancer Research, 64, 6693-6699 (2004)).

[0010] Previous PBD dimers have been prepared symmetrically, meaning the two monomers of the dimer are identical, due to the way these highly efficient compounds crosslink DNA. This synthetic route offers direct synthesis, either by simultaneously constructing the PBD dimer moieties that have already formed dimer linkages, or by reacting the constructed PBD monomer moieties with the dimer linker groups. These synthetic methods limit the options for preparing PBD-containing targeting conjugates. However, due to the observed potency of PBD dimers, there is a need for asymmetric PBD dimers that can be conjugated to targeting agents for use in targeted therapy. 5. Summary of the Invention

[0087] This article provides a basis for pyrrolobenzodiazepines. A compound comprising two PBDs connected by a linker, the two PBDs being identical or different. The compound can be used as the pharmaceutical or payload portion of an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). ADCs can be used to treat diseases or conditions, such as cancer, for example by providing a composition containing an ADC.

[0088] 7.1. Definition

[0089] In this disclosure, unless otherwise indicated, the following terms have the following meanings. Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains. If multiple definitions are provided for a term herein, those definitions shall prevail unless otherwise stated.

[0090] When a trade name is used in this document, unless the context otherwise indicates, reference to the trade name also refers to the product formulation, generic drug, and active pharmaceutical ingredient of the product under that trade name.

[0091] The term "antibody" is used in the broadest sense and specifically encompasses intact monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, monospecific antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), and antibody fragments exhibiting desired biological activity. An intact antibody primarily has two regions: a variable region and a constant region. The variable region binds to and interacts with the target antigen. The variable region includes a complementarity-determining region (CDR) that recognizes and binds to a specific binding site on a particular antigen. The constant region is recognized by and interacts with the immune system (see, for example, Janeway et al., 2001, Immunol. Biology, 5th edition, Garland Publishing, New York). Antibodies can belong to any type (e.g., IgG, IgE, IgM, IgD, and IgA), class (e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and rgA2), or subclass of any of these. Antibodies can be derived from any suitable species. In some embodiments, the antibody has a human or mouse origin. Antibodies can be, for example, human, humanized, or chimeric.

[0092] As used herein, the term "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody obtained from a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies, meaning that the individual antibodies constituting said population are identical except for trace amounts of possibly naturally occurring mutations. Monoclonal antibodies are highly specific (targeting a single antigenic site). The modifier "monoclonal" should not be interpreted as requiring the production of the antibody through any particular method.

[0093] A “complete antibody” is an antibody that contains an antigen-binding variable region and light chain constant domains (CL) and heavy chain constant domains CH1, CH2, CH3, and CH4, depending on the antibody class. The constant domains can be natural sequence constant domains (e.g., human natural sequence constant domains) or amino acid sequence variants thereof.

[0094] An "antibody fragment" comprises a portion of a complete antibody, including its antigen-binding region or variable region. Examples of antibody fragments include Fab, Fab', F(ab')2 and Fv fragments, bivalent antibodies, trivalent antibodies, tetravalent antibodies, linear antibodies, single-chain antibody molecules, scFv, scFv-Fc, multispecific antibody fragments formed from antibody fragments, fragments generated from Fab expression libraries, or epitope-binding fragments of any of the above that are immune-specifically bound to a target antigen (e.g., cancer cell antigen, viral antigen, or microbial antigen).

[0095] An "antigen" is an entity that an antibody specifically binds to.

[0096] The terms "specific binding" and "specifically binds" mean that an antibody or antibody derivative will bind to its corresponding target antigen in a highly selective manner, rather than to a multitude of other antigens. Typically, antibodies or antibody derivatives bind at least about 1 × 10⁻⁶. -7 M, 10 -8 M, 10 -9 M, 10 -10 M, 10 -11 M or 10 -12 The affinity of M for binding is at least twice that for binding to a predetermined antigen (e.g., BSA, casein) other than the predetermined antigen or closely related antigens.

[0097] The terms “inhibit” or “inhibition of” mean to reduce a measurable amount or to completely prevent it.

[0098] The term "therapeutic effective dose" refers to the amount of a drug that is effective in treating a disease or symptom in a mammal. In the case of cancer, a therapeutically effective dose of a drug can reduce the number of cancer cells; reduce tumor size; inhibit (i.e., to some extent slow down or stop) the infiltration of cancer cells into surrounding organs; inhibit (i.e., to some extent slow down or stop) tumor metastasis; inhibit tumor growth to some extent; and / or alleviate one or more symptoms associated with cancer to some extent. In terms of the drug's ability to inhibit growth and / or kill existing cancer cells, it can be cytoseptic and / or cytotoxic. For cancer therapies, efficacy can be measured, for example, by assessing time to progression (TTP) and / or determining response rate (RR).

[0099] The term "substantial" or "substantially" means the majority of a mixture or sample, i.e., >50% of the population, preferably greater than 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% of the population.

[0100] The terms "intracellular cleavage" and "intracellular breakdown" refer to the metabolic process or reaction of a ligand-drug conjugate (e.g., an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC)) within a cell, in which the covalent link (e.g., a linker) between the drug moiety (D) and the ligand unit (e.g., an antibody (BA or Ab)) is disrupted, resulting in the dissociation of the free drug or another metabolite of the conjugate from the antibody within the cell. Therefore, the cleavage portion of a drug-linker-ligand conjugate is an intracellular metabolite.

[0101] The terms “cancer” and “cancerous” refer to or describe a physiological disorder or condition in mammals that is typically characterized by dysregulation of cell growth. A “tumor” contains one or more cancerous cells. Examples of cancer include, but are not limited to, carcinoma, lymphoma, blastoma, sarcoma, and leukemia or lymphoid malignancies. More specific examples of such cancers include squamous cell carcinoma (e.g., epithelial squamous cell carcinoma), lung cancer (including small cell lung cancer, non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”), lung adenocarcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma of the lung), peritoneal cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric cancer (including gastrointestinal cancer), pancreatic cancer, glioblastoma, cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, liver cancer, bladder cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, colon cancer, rectal cancer, colorectal cancer, endometrial cancer or uterine cancer, salivary gland cancer, kidney cancer (kidney or renal cancer), prostate cancer, vulvar cancer, thyroid cancer, liver cancer, anal cancer, penile cancer, and head and neck cancer.

[0102] In this article, "autoimmune disease" refers to a disease or condition that originates from and targets an individual's own tissues or proteins.

[0103] Examples of “patient” or “subject” include, but are not limited to, mammals such as humans, rats, mice, guinea pigs, monkeys, pigs, goats, cattle, horses, dogs, or cats, as well as birds or poultry. In the implementation scheme, the patient is a human.

[0104] Unless the context otherwise indicates, the term "treat" or "treatment" refers to therapeutic treatments and preventative measures intended to prevent recurrence, wherein the aim is to suppress or slow (alleviate) unwanted physiological changes or conditions, such as the development or spread of cancer. For the purposes of this disclosure, beneficial or desired clinical outcomes include, but are not limited to, symptom relief, reduction in disease severity, stabilization of the disease state (i.e., no worsening), delay or slowing of disease progression, improvement or mitigation of the disease state, and remission (whether partial or complete), whether detectable or undetectable. "Treatment" may also mean, for example, prolonged survival compared to expected survival without treatment. Those requiring treatment include those who already have the disease or condition and those who are susceptible to it.

[0105] In the context of cancer, the term "treatment" includes any or all of the following: inhibiting the growth of tumor cells, cancer cells, or tumors; inhibiting the replication of tumor cells or cancer cells; reducing the overall tumor burden or the number of cancer cells; and improving one or more symptoms associated with the disease.

[0106] In the context of autoimmune diseases, the term "treatment" includes any or all of the following: inhibiting the replication of cells associated with an autoimmune disease state (including, but not limited to, cells that produce autoimmune antibodies), reducing the autoimmune antibody load, and improving one or more symptoms of the autoimmune disease.

[0107] As used herein, in this specification, and in the appended claims, the indefinite article “a / an” and the definite article “the” include both plural and single indicators, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0108] As used herein and unless otherwise stated, the terms “about” and “approximately”, when used in conjunction with the amount or weight percentage of a component of a composition, mean an amount or weight percentage that is generally recognized by those skilled in the art to provide a pharmacological effect equivalent to that obtained from the specified amount or weight percentage. In some embodiments, the terms “about” and “approximately”, when used in this context, cover an amount or weight percentage of up to 30%, 20%, 15%, 10%, or 5% of the specified amount or weight percentage.

[0109] As used herein and unless otherwise stated, the terms “about” and “approximately” when used in conjunction with numerical values ​​or ranges of values ​​provided to characterize a particular solid form (e.g., a particular temperature or temperature range, such as describing melting, dehydration, desolventizing, or glass transition temperatures; mass changes, such as mass changes with temperature or humidity; solvent or water content, expressed, for example, by mass or percentage; or peak positions, such as in analyses performed, for example, by IR or Raman spectroscopy or XRPD) indicate that the value or range of values ​​may deviate to a degree that would be reasonable to a person skilled in the art, while still describing the solid form. Techniques used to characterize crystalline forms and amorphous solids include, but are not limited to, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), single-crystal X-ray diffraction, vibrational spectroscopy (e.g., infrared (IR) and Raman spectroscopy), solid-state and solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, optical microscopy, hot-stage optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron crystallography and quantitative analysis, particle size analysis (PSA), surface area analysis, solubility studies, and dissolution studies. In some embodiments, the terms "about" and "approximately," when used in this context, indicate that the stated numerical value or range may vary within 30%, 20%, 15%, 10%, 9%, 8%, 7%, 6%, 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 1.5%, 1%, 0.5%, or 0.25% of the stated value or range. For example, in some implementations, the value of the XRPD peak position may vary by up to ±0.2°2θ, while still describing a specific XRPD peak.

[0185] As used herein, the term "amino acid" refers to an organic compound containing an amino (-NH2) and a carboxyl (-COOH) functional group, as well as a side chain (R group), the side chain being specific for each amino acid. Amino acids can be proteogenous or non-proteogenous. "Proteogenous" means that an amino acid is one of the twenty naturally occurring amino acids found in proteins. Proteogenous amino acids include alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamine, glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine, and valine. "Non-proteogenous" means that an amino acid is not naturally found in proteins or is not directly produced by cellular mechanisms (e.g., it is a product of post-translational modification). Non-limiting examples of non-proteogenous amino acids include γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid), theanine (L-γ-glutamylethylamide), hydroxyproline, β-alanine, ornithine, and citrulline.

[0186] As used herein, the term "peptide," in its broadest sense across its various grammatical forms, refers to a compound consisting of two or more subunit amino acids, amino acid analogs, or other peptide mimics. These subunits may be linked by peptide bonds or other bonds such as ester bonds, ether bonds, etc. The term "amino acid," as used herein, refers to natural and / or non-natural, proteogenic or non-proteogenic, or synthetic amino acids, including glycine and its D or L optical isomers, as well as amino acid analogs and peptide mimics. If the peptide chain is short, such as two, three, or more amino acids, it is generally called an oligopeptide. If the peptide chain is long, the peptide is generally called a polypeptide or protein. The definition encompasses full-length proteins, their analogs, mutants, and fragments. The term also includes post-expression modifications of polypeptides, such as glycosylation, acetylation, phosphorylation, etc. Furthermore, due to the presence of ionizable amino and carboxyl groups in the molecule, certain peptides can be obtained in acidic or basic salt or neutral forms. Peptides can be obtained directly from the source organism or can be produced recombinantly or synthetically.

[0187] The amino acid sequences of antibodies can be numbered using any known numbering scheme, including those described below: Kabat et al. (“Kabat” numbering scheme); Al-Lazikani et al., 1997, J. Mol. Biol., 273: 927-948 (“Chothia” numbering scheme); MacCallum et al., 1996, J. Mol. Biol. 262: 732-745 (“Contact” numbering scheme); Lefranc et al., Dev. Comp. Immunol., 2003, 27: 55-77 (“IMGT” numbering scheme); and Honegge and Pluckthun, J. Mol. Biol., 2001, 309: 657-70 (“AHo” numbering scheme). Unless otherwise stated, the numbering scheme used herein is the Kabat numbering scheme. However, the choice of numbering scheme does not imply the absence of differences in the sequence, and those skilled in the art can readily confirm the sequence positions by examining the amino acid sequences of one or more antibodies. Unless otherwise stated, when referring to residues in the constant region of the antibody heavy chain, the “EU numbering scheme” is generally used (e.g., as reported above by Kabat et al.).

[0188] As used in this article, “cytotoxic activity” refers to the activity that reduces or diminishes the viability of the tested cell lines.

[0189] In the following claims and in the preceding description, unless the context requires otherwise due to the language of expression or necessary implication, the word “comprise” or variations thereof (such as “comprises / comprising”) are used to include the meaning that specifies the presence of the described feature in the various embodiments rather than excluding the presence of additional features or adding additional features.
