Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD The present application belongs to the field of medicine, and particularly relates to a vinylsulfonyl-substituted compound targeting Pol theta and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0001] DNA polymerase theta (Pol theta) is one of the 16 DNA polymerases in the human genome, encoded by the POLQ gene, and is the core enzyme in the Polymerase theta-mediated end joining (TMEJ) repair pathway. Most double-strand breaks are repaired by non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) or homologous recombination repair (HDR). However, in some cases, NHEJ and HR are not sufficient, and TMEJ is the only solution to repair the break. TMEJ is usually described as an alternative NHEJ, but the difference is that it does not require Ku heterodimer, and it can only act on the sheared DNA end. After the short region of the DNA overhang (i.e. a few nucleotides) anneals, Pol theta bridges the break end by template-dependent DNA synthesis, stabilizing the mate structure (Mateos-Gomez PA, et al., Nature 2015, 518(7538): 254-7; Ceccaldi R., et al., Nature 2015, 518(7538): 258-62.). Pol theta is essentially not expressed in normal cells, but is up-regulated in breast cancer, lung cancer and ovarian cancer. In addition, the increase of Pol theta expression is associated with poor prognosis of breast cancer. Studies have shown that cancer cells lacking HR, NHEJ or ATM are highly dependent on Pol theta expression. Therefore, Pol theta has become a popular target in drug research.
[0002] Proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC) technology is a new therapeutic model that uses the natural protein degradation mechanism of cells (ubiquitin-proteasome system) to selectively target and eliminate these proteins related to the pathogenesis of diseases. In recent years, due to its unique mechanism of action and broad application prospects, it has occupied an important position in the field of new drug research and development, and has provided a new direction for new drug discovery. Compared with traditional small molecule inhibitors, proteolysis-targeting chimera has many advantages. Proteolysis-targeting chimera can target proteins that are difficult for traditional small molecule inhibitors to bind, including 'undruggable' targets that have no active site or have a difficult-to-access active site. Proteolysis-targeting chimera works through a catalytic mechanism, and once the degradation of the target protein is induced, its effect can continue even if the drug concentration decreases. Its catalytic properties can theoretically achieve therapeutic effects at lower doses, which may help reduce drug side effects and improve safety. Proteolysis-targeting chimera can provide a wider therapeutic window because they do not need to continuously occupy the target protein, but achieve therapeutic effects by inducing its degradation. Because the effect of proteolysis-targeting chimera is to eliminate the entire protein, not just inhibit its activity, it can reduce the problem of drug resistance caused by mutations or overexpression of target proteins. For targets that act as structural proteins in the disease process, proteolysis-targeting chimera can disrupt their structure and function by degrading these proteins, while traditional small molecule inhibitors often have difficulty achieving this.
[0003] In summary, Polθ is essential for cells with homologous recombination deficiency, and the development of Polθ-targeting drugs can provide a new strategy for the treatment of homologous recombination deficiency cancer. Currently, there are a variety of Polθ inhibitors, such as WO2020243459, WO2022118210, WO2023050007, WO2023134739, WO2023060573, WO2023134708, WO2024099337 and WO2024088407; and Polθ protein degraders, such as WO2024149349. In recent years, some progress has been made in the study of Polθ inhibitors, and ART-6043, ART-4215 and GSK-101 are currently in clinical research. SUMMARY

Example 35 The inhibitory effect of the compounds of this invention on Polθ enzyme activity The helicase activity of Polθ was measured using a commercial ADP-Glo assay kit. First, the Polθ protein was expressed in an insect cell system. DMSO was serially diluted to 10 dose points. 40 nL of each concentration of compound or DMSO was transferred to appropriate wells using I.DOT (DISPENDIX GmbH). The protein was diluted to the appropriate concentration using modified Tris-HCl (pH 7.5) buffer, and the compound and protein were pre-incubated together for 15 min at 25°C. Substrate DNA was then added, and the mixture was incubated at 25°C for 20 min. ATP was then added to initiate the reaction, and the mixture was incubated at 25°C for 120 min. Finally, ADP Glo reagent (Promega, V9101) was added to stop the reaction, and the mixture was incubated at 25°C for 120 min. To detect the generated ADP, ADP-Glo™ assay solution was added, and the mixture was incubated at 25°C for 1 h. Data were acquired by EnVision (PerkinElmer) using ultrasensitive luminescence mode. Wells containing 1% DMSO, enzyme, and ATP served as the high-signal-value control group, while wells containing 1% DMSO and ATP served as the low-signal-value control group. The percentage of inhibition in the compound-treated wells was normalized between the high-signal-value and low-signal-value control groups (%inhibition rate = (average value of high-signal-value control group wells - value of compound-treated wells) / (average value of high-signal-value control group wells - average value of low-signal-value control group wells) * 100). The IC50 was calculated by fitting the logarithm of the %inhibition value and the compound concentration to a nonlinear regression equation using GraphPad software. 50 The nonlinear regression equation is: Y = Bottom + (Top - Bottom) / (1 + 10^(LogIC)) 50 -X)*HillSlope)). Y represents the compound inhibition rate, and X represents the logarithm of the compound concentration. IC 50 This is the compound concentration corresponding to an inhibition rate of 50%. The inhibitory effect of the compound in this application on Polθ enzyme activity was determined by the above experimental methods, and the measured IC50 value was... 50 The values are shown in Table 1 below.

Example 36 The inhibitory effect of the compounds of this invention on the growth of DLD-1BRCA2-deficient cells The cytotoxicity of Polθ inhibitors in the human colorectal cancer DLD-1BRCA2-deficient cell line was assessed using a chemiluminescent cell viability assay. The DLD-1BRCA2-deficient cell line was obtained from Kelp Biotech. 40 μL of cell suspension was added to each well of a 384-well plate according to the planned layout, and the plate was incubated overnight in a CO2 incubator. Following the plate layout, 40 nL of different doses of the compound (DMSO was serially diluted to 9 dose points) were added to the plate using I.DOT HT. The final DMSO concentration was normalized to 0.1%. The cell plates were centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 1 min and incubated in a CO2 incubator for 5 days. The culture medium was removed using a vacuum pump and discarded. Then, 40 μL of culture medium was added to the plate, and 40 nL of different doses of the compound were added using I.DOT HT according to the plate layout. The plate was incubated in a CO2 incubator for another 5 days, for a total incubation period of 10 days. After 10 days of incubation, 30 μL of CellTiter-Glo Reagent was added to the detection plate according to the test method in the CTG manual, and CTG was run. The experimental plate was loaded, and the luminescence signal was recorded using Envision. Wells containing only culture medium served as the low signal control group, and wells containing 0.1% DMSO and cells served as the high signal control group. The percentage of cell death in the compound-treated wells was standardized between the high and low signal control groups (% kill rate = (average value of high signal control wells - value of compound-treated wells) / (average value of high signal control wells - average value of low signal control wells) * 100). The IC50 was calculated by fitting the logarithm of the % kill value and the compound concentration to a nonlinear regression equation using GraphPad software. 50 The nonlinear regression equation is: Y = Bottom + (Top - Bottom) / (1 + 10^(LogIC)) 50 -X)*HillSlope)). Y represents the cell killing rate, and X represents the logarithm of the compound concentration. IC 50 This is the compound concentration corresponding to a kill rate of 50%.
