Existing BET inhibitors for the treatment of liver cancer have problems such as short duration of action and platelet toxicity, and there is a lack of low-toxicity liver-targeted drug intervention methods.
A class of liver-targeting protein degrader conjugates has been developed. By conjugating the protein degrader with a small molecule ligand of the desialyl glycoprotein receptor (ASGPR), liver-specific targeting is achieved. The conjugate formed by the binding moiety of the E3 ligase ligand and the BET family protein enables precise degradation of the target protein.
It achieves long-term pharmacological effects in the treatment of liver cancer, reduces systemic toxicity, and improves treatment efficacy, especially in the treatment of liver cancer and liver fibrosis.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the pharmaceutical field, specifically relating to a class of liver-targeting protein degradation agent conjugates and their uses. Background Technology
[0002] Liver cancer is a malignant disease that seriously threatens human life and health. Due to the lack of specific drugs, the five-year survival rate for liver cancer patients is only 10%, making the clinical treatment situation extremely challenging. Currently, the main clinical interventions are limited by efficacy and safety, necessitating the development of novel drug intervention methods. BET family proteins play an important role in normal cell growth and cell cycle regulation. Studies have shown that liver cancer cells respond well to BET inhibitors, making them potential targets for liver cancer treatment. However, regrettably, there are currently no approved BET inhibitors. Their main drawbacks are the short duration of action of traditional inhibitors and the existence of certain on-target toxicity, especially platelet toxicity, which is showing a high incidence in clinical practice.
[0003] In summary, there is an urgent need in this field to develop new liver-targeting drugs with low toxicity. Summary of the Invention

[0192] As used herein, the term "conjugate" (also referred to herein as "conjugate of the present invention" or "liver-targeting protein degrader conjugate") means the conjugate as described in the first aspect.
[0193] Protein degradation technology, due to its unique mechanism of action, can maintain a relatively long-lasting pharmacological effect. However, protein degraders themselves lack tissue targeting, and their associated systemic toxicity is a major obstacle in drug development. This invention develops a novel class of liver-targeting protein degrader conjugates by conjugating protein degraders with small-molecule ligands of the desialyl glycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) via a linker fragment. Utilizing the highly specific expression of ASGPR in the liver, a more precise drug action mechanism is achieved than with traditional drugs.

[0197] As used herein, protein degraders refer to a class of compounds that can target and induce protein degradation via the ubiquitination-proteasome pathway. Generally, these degraders consist of a ligand (as shown in Formula IA) of the target protein (e.g., BET family proteins) and an E3 ubiquitin ligase ligand (e.g., R...). E3 For example, through a linker (such as R) Linker The bifunctional small molecule formed by linking together can simultaneously bind to the target protein to be degraded and the E3 ubiquitin ligase, so that the target protein is brought close to the E3 ubiquitin ligase and is ubiquitinated and labeled, and then recognized and degraded by the proteasome in the cell.

[0217] Pharmaceutical Compositions and Administration
[0218] Because the conjugates provided by this invention (sometimes also called protein degrader conjugates or liver-targeting protein degrader conjugates) have excellent ability to target and degrade BET family proteins in liver diseases and have anti-tumor activity, and the activity of the conjugates is highly correlated with ASGPR expression, the conjugate drugs of this invention can be used to treat or prevent various liver diseases (such as liver cancer, liver fibrosis, etc.).
[0219] The aforementioned conjugates can be administered to subjects (e.g., humans) in therapeutically effective amounts via appropriate routes. For conjugate drugs (or antibody-drug conjugates), subjects requiring treatment may be patients at risk or suspected of having a condition related to the activity or expression level of a specific antigen. Such patients can be identified through routine physical examinations.
[0220] Conventional methods, known to those skilled in the art of medicine, can be used to administer the pharmaceutical composition to a subject, depending on the type of disease to be treated or the site of the disease. This composition can also be administered via other conventional routes, such as parenteral administration, oral administration, via inhalation spray, topical administration, rectal administration, nasal administration, oral administration, vaginal administration, or via implantation. The term "parenteral" as used herein includes subcutaneous, intradermal, intravenous, intramuscular, intra-articular, intra-articular, intrasynovial, intrasternal, intrathecal, intralesional, and intracranial injection or infusion techniques. Furthermore, it can be administered via injectable reservoir routes, such as using injectable or biodegradable materials and methods with 1-, 3-, or 6-month reservoirs.
[0221] Injectable compositions may contain various carriers such as vegetable oils, dimethylactamide, dimethylformamide, ethyl lactate, ethyl carbonate, isopropyl myristate, ethanol, polyols (glycerol, propylene glycol, liquid polyethylene glycol, etc.). For intravenous injection, water-soluble antibodies may be administered via infusion, thereby delivering a pharmaceutical formulation containing the antibody and physiologically acceptable excipients. Physiologically acceptable excipients may include, for example, 5% glucose, 0.9% saline, Ringer's solution, or other suitable excipients. Intramuscular preparations, such as sterile formulations of a suitable soluble salt form of the antibody, may dissolve and administer pharmaceutical excipients such as aqueous injections, 0.9% saline, or 5% glucose solutions.
[0222] The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention contain a safe and effective amount of the conjugate of the present invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Such carriers include (but are not limited to): saline, buffer solutions, glucose, water, glycerol, ethanol, and combinations thereof. Generally, pharmaceutical formulations should be matched to the route of administration. The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can be formulated as solutions, for example, prepared using conventional methods with physiological saline or aqueous solutions containing glucose and other excipients. The pharmaceutical compositions are preferably manufactured under aseptic conditions. The dosage of the active ingredient is a therapeutically effective amount.
[0223] The effective amount of the conjugate described in this invention can vary depending on the administration method and the severity of the disease to be treated. A preferred effective amount can be determined by those skilled in the art based on various factors (e.g., through clinical trials). These factors include, but are not limited to: the pharmacokinetic parameters of the antibody-drug conjugate, such as bioavailability, metabolism, and half-life; the severity of the disease to be treated, the patient's weight, the patient's immune status, and the route of administration. Generally, satisfactory results are obtained when the conjugate of this invention is administered at a dose of approximately 0.01 mg to 50 mg / kg animal body weight (preferably 0.1 mg to 20 mg / kg animal body weight). For example, due to the urgency of the treatment condition, several separate doses can be administered monthly, or the dose can be reduced proportionally.
[0224] The compounds of this invention can be administered alone or in combination with other pharmaceutically acceptable therapeutic agents or adjuvants.
[0225] When using the pharmaceutical composition, a safe and effective amount of the antibody-drug conjugate of the present invention is applied to the mammal (such as a human) requiring treatment. The dosage administered is the pharmaceutically considered effective dose. For a person weighing 60 kg, the single dose is typically 1–2000 mg, preferably 5–500 mg. Of course, the specific dosage should also take into account factors such as the route of administration and the patient's health condition, which are all within the scope of the skills of a skilled physician.
[0226] The main advantages of this invention include:
[0227] (a) The conjugates of the present invention have good in vivo and in vitro stability;
[0228] (b) The conjugates of the present invention have significantly improved hydrophilicity, overcoming the bottleneck of difficult administration of traditional protein degrading agents.
[0229] (c) In in vitro antitumor experiments, the cell activity of the conjugate of the present invention was positively correlated with ASGPR expression, suggesting that the drug safety was improved.
[0230] (d) In vivo studies have shown that long-term administration of the conjugate of the present invention alone or in combination with sorafenib can not only effectively inhibit tumor growth, but also significantly alleviate BET inhibitor-related hematologic toxicity.
[0231] The present invention will be further illustrated below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Experimental methods in the following embodiments, unless otherwise specified, are generally performed under conventional conditions, such as those described in Sambrook et al., Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual (New York: Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 1989), or as recommended by the manufacturer.

[0429] Example 3: Protein degradation activity test of liver-targeting protein degradation agent conjugate
[0430] Western blot analysis: After treating cells with the specified concentration and time, the culture medium was removed, cells were washed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), and cells were lysed (100 μL) in ice-cold RIPA lysis buffer (BP-115DG, Boston BioProducts, Ashland, MA, USA) containing EDTA and EGTA.

The cell pellet was discarded, and the supernatant was collected for Western blotting analysis. The supernatant was rapidly frozen and stored at -80 °C for long-term storage. The protein concentration of the cell lysate was determined using a biuret protein quantification kit (P0010, Beyotime, Tianjin, China). After protein quantification, cell lysates containing a quarter volume of 4×Laemmli sample buffer (1610747, Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA) and 5% β-mercaptoethanol were heated at 95°C for 5 minutes. The sample (20 μg) was then electrophoretically transferred to a 0.22 μm polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane (Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA) using a wet electrotransfer system (Bio-Rad, Richmond, CA, USA). The transferred membrane was blocked at room temperature for 1 hour in TBS-T buffer (50 mM Trisbase, 150 mM sodium chloride (NaCl), 0.1% (v / v) Tween-20) containing 5% (w / v) skim milk powder for 1 hour. The membrane was washed three times with TBS-T and incubated overnight at 4°C with primary antibody. The membrane was washed three more times with TBS-T for 15 minutes each time and then incubated at room temperature in the dark with secondary antibody for 1 hour. The membrane was then washed three more times with TBS-T for 5 minutes each time. Protein bands were detected using the GeneGnome XRQ-NPC system (Synoptics, Fredrick, MD), and quantitative analysis was performed using Image Studio software. The experiments showed that representative compounds degraded BET family proteins in a time- and concentration-dependent manner and effectively induced downstream c-Myc downregulation. Figure 1 ).

[0433] 4.1. Degradation activity of representative conjugates
[0434] First, the protein degradation activity of representative compounds was evaluated using an in vitro constructed ASGPR knockdown Huh7 cell line (with non-knockdown cells as a control).

[0436] Compared to normal Huh7 cells, the cell viability of compound 13E was significantly reduced in ASGPR knockdown Huh7 cells.

[0442] Example 5: In vivo antitumor activity of representative conjugates
[0443] In vivo tumor suppression experiment: Four-week-old male BALB / c nude mice were purchased from Beijing Vital River Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd. (China). These mice were housed under specific pathogen-free (SPF) conditions at an ambient temperature of 20-21°C and a relative humidity of 40%-60%, with a 12-hour dark / 12-hour light cycle, and free access to standard food and water for two weeks. Experiments were conducted when the mice reached a weight of approximately 22 grams. This study followed the Guidelines for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals. All experimental parameters were kept consistent during data analysis. All experimental protocols were approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of the Kunming Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IACUC-RE-2023-04-007). All procedures complied with principles of animal protection, welfare, and ethics, as well as relevant national guidelines. The tumor model was established by inoculating 5 × 10^6 Huh-7 cells suspended in a 100 μL LMEM and Matrigel (1:1) mixture into the right abdomen of each mouse, forming a Huh-7 cell implant. Matrigel (#356234, Corning Incorporated, Corning, NY, USA) was thawed on ice the night before use. After three weeks, the tumor volume reached approximately 150 mm^3. Tumor volume (V) was calculated using the formula V = L / 2 × W^2 by measuring tumor length (L) and width (W). Mice were divided into two or four groups based on tumor size to ensure that the average tumor size in each group was similar, and each group was administered via a different route of administration. Sorafenib (SOR) was prepared as an injection (5% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween-80 + 50% saline), while compound 13E was dissolved in saline. Mice received intraperitoneal injections of the indicated drugs and solutions. Body weight and tumor size were measured every three days after injection. To investigate the synergistic effect of compound 13E and SOR, mice were sacrificed when the tumor volume reached 1500 mm^3.
[0444] Experimental results showed that conjugate 13E (administered once every 3 days) and sorafenib (administered once every 2 days) had comparable antitumor activity when administered as monotherapy, while their combination therapy completely inhibited tumor growth. Figure 4 A). Furthermore, long-term combination therapy can completely inhibit tumor growth and maintain this effect for more than two months. Figure 4 B), and can significantly prolong the survival time of mice. Figure 4 C) This suggests that the conjugate possesses good in vivo antitumor activity. Furthermore, no significant toxic side effects were observed with either the conjugate 13E alone or in combination with sorafenib.
[0445] Example 6: Preliminary in vivo safety evaluation of representative conjugates
[0446] Blood and Tissue Sampling: Following the experiments in Example 5, mice were fasted for 12 hours and then euthanized by exsanguination under isopentane anesthesia. Whole blood samples were collected and divided into two portions: one portion was allowed to coagulate naturally at room temperature to obtain serum for biochemical analysis, and the other portion was placed in an EDTA tube and analyzed for complete blood cell count (CBC) using a Mindray BC-5000Vet automated hematology analyzer (Mindray, Shenzhen, China) within 4 hours. After weighing, the liver and tumor tissues were cut into three parts: one part was fixed in 10% formalin for histopathological examination, and the other two parts were immediately rapidly frozen in liquid nitrogen for tissue extraction and Western blot analysis. These tissue samples were stored at -80°C until use.
[0447] The results showed that long-term combined use of conjugate 13E and sorafenib did not significantly damage platelets. Figure 5 This indicates the good safety of the coupling.
[0448] Example 7: In vitro stability evaluation of representative conjugates
[0449] An appropriate amount of conjugate 13E was dissolved in PBS (pH=7.4) or cell culture medium, and observed for one week at room temperature and 37°C, respectively. During the experiment, the samples were taken every 24 hours and the purity was determined by HPLC.
[0450] The results showed that the purity of conjugate 13E was greater than 90% at the experimental endpoint, indicating that it has good stability.
[0451] Example 8: Evaluation of an in vitro anti-liver fibrosis model of representative conjugates
[0452] Experimental Methods: We evaluated the effects of 13E on fibrosis markers in TGF-β-activated LX-2 cells to investigate its potential anti-fibrotic effect. First, LX-2 cells were treated with different concentrations (5 and 10 ng / mL) of TGF-β, and the expression of fibrosis-related proteins Col1A1 and Mmp2 was detected. Subsequently, quantitative PCR was used to analyze the changes in the expression of fibrosis markers and to assess the role of 13E in reversing TGF-β-induced fibrosis gene expression.
[0453] The results showed that TGF-β treatment significantly upregulated the mRNA expression levels of Col1A1 and Mmp2 in LX-2 cells, successfully establishing an in vitro liver fibrosis model. Quantitative PCR analysis revealed a significant decrease in the mRNA levels of Col1A1 and Mmp2 in the 13E treatment group, suggesting that 13E can effectively reverse TGF-β-induced fibrosis gene expression. Figure 6 ).
[0454] Example 9: Evaluation of an in vivo anti-liver fibrosis model of representative conjugates
[0455] Experimental Methods: To evaluate the anti-hepatic fibrosis effect of 13E in vivo, liver fibrosis was induced in a high-fat choline-deficient diet (CDAA-HFD) mouse model, and the expression of fibrosis markers in the liver was analyzed by quantitative PCR. First, the mRNA levels of key fibrosis-related genes (such as α-sma, Tgfβ, and Mmp2) were detected by qPCR to verify the anti-fibrotic effect of 13E.
[0456] The results showed that quantitative PCR analysis revealed significantly increased mRNA levels of α-sma, Tgfβ, and Mmp2 in the liver of CDAA-HFD group mice, indicating a significant acceleration of liver fibrosis. After 13E treatment, the mRNA expression of these genes significantly decreased, indicating that 13E can effectively inhibit the expression of genes associated with liver fibrosis. Figure 7 ).
