Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of nuclear medicine technology, and in particular to a linker, compound, radionuclide conjugate targeting prostate-specific membrane antigens and their applications. Background Technology

[0002] Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is highly expressed on the membranes of most prostate cancer cells. Its extracellular domain can specifically bind to antibodies or small-molecule radioligands, making it a highly promising target for the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. In radiopharmaceutical development, the PSMA-targeting linker, as a key structural unit connecting the PSMA-targeting ligand to the therapeutic or diagnostic payload, must not only maintain the ligand's high affinity and targeting specificity for PSMA, but also ensure efficient delivery of the payload to tumor tissue and controlled release at the target site. Therefore, the design of the linker directly determines the biological activity, pharmacokinetic behavior, in vivo stability, and ultimate therapeutic effect of the radiopharmaceutical.

[0003] Current research reports that introducing highly negatively charged linker structures can significantly reduce the uptake of PSMA-targeting tracers in non-target tissues such as salivary glands, thereby alleviating adverse reactions such as dry mouth caused by radiotherapy. Furthermore, some linkers are designed to cleave in response to specific conditions in the tumor microenvironment (such as low pH, high expression of specific enzymes, or a reducing environment) to achieve targeted drug release; there are also strategies that indirectly release active ingredients through the metabolic degradation of drug conjugates within cells.

[0004] However, existing linker structures still have limitations. The constructed radionuclide conjugates generally exhibit problems such as low tumor-targeted uptake efficiency and insufficient in vivo stability, which limits their potential for application in clinical diagnosis and treatment. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a linker, compound, radionuclide conjugate, and their applications targeting prostate-specific membrane antigens. This invention employs a series of novel linkers targeting prostate-specific membrane antigens, which are hydrophilic and / or rigid. The radionuclide conjugates prepared by further processing compounds formed by linking a targeting carrier and a targeting ligand using these linkers exhibit advantages such as high tumor uptake and high stability.

[0006] The inventors discovered that, on the one hand, rigid linkers can restrict the conformation of the PSMA binding unit when it binds to the PSMA target, helping to maintain the optimal binding posture and improve the binding affinity to PSMA. This conformational restriction helps reduce the loss of conformational entropy, thereby enhancing binding stability. On the other hand, rigid linkers with a well-defined three-dimensional structure may reduce non-specific interactions with non-target proteins or biomolecules, helping to reduce background signals and off-target accumulation. Furthermore, rigid linkers can also regulate their metabolism and excretion in the liver and kidneys through molecular shape, thereby optimizing pharmacokinetic properties.

[0007] Meanwhile, the inventors' research also found that hydrophilic linkers can significantly improve the water solubility of the entire molecule. In particular, for intravenously injected radiopharmaceuticals, hydrophilic polymers such as polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains can form a hydration layer, reducing the non-specific binding of the drug to plasma proteins and prolonging the circulation time of the drug in the blood. A longer circulation time helps the drug reach the tumor site better and improve the tumor uptake rate.

[0008] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution: In a first aspect of the present invention, a compound targeting prostate-specific membrane antigen is provided, the compound having the structure of: a targeting carrier-linker-targeting ligand; The connector can have any of the structures shown in Equations 01 to 20: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ; Where n takes values ​​from 0 to 3. This is the connection site.

[0009] Specifically, n can take the values ​​0, 1, 2, or 3. This refers to the connection site between the target vector and the linker.

[0010] In some embodiments, the targeting carrier has a structure as shown in Formula I: Equation I, where Equation I contains This is the connection site.

[0011] The aforementioned targeting vectors possess high specificity and multifunctionality. Since PSMA is primarily overexpressed on the surface of cancer cells but expressed at very low levels in normal tissues, PSMA vectors require high specificity to effectively distinguish between cancer cells and normal cells. Furthermore, the PSMA targeting vectors in these embodiments can be used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. For example, in diagnostics, the PSMA-targeted radioisotope can be used for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging; in therapeutics, it can be conjugated with therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals or chemotherapeutic drugs to achieve targeted therapy.

[0012] In some embodiments, the compound has a structure as shown in formulas i to xx: Formula i, Formula ii Equation iii Formula iv Formula v Formula vi Form vii, Formula viii Formula ix Formula x Formula xi Formula xii, Formula xiii, XIV, Formula xv, Formula xvi Formula xvii, Formulas xviii, formula xix, Formula xx; Where R is the targeting ligand; n takes values ​​from 0 to 2. More specifically, n can take values ​​of 0, 1, or 2.

[0013] Specifically, in formula i, the carboxyl and amino residues on lysine are used to connect the targeting ligand and the chelating ligand, respectively. Since lysine is a natural amino acid, it can improve biocompatibility. At the same time, the amino group of lysine is protected by the Fmoc protecting group, introducing a sterically hindered group, which is beneficial to unfolding the entire RDC molecule, reducing the possibility of molecule folding, and improving the stability and targeting selectivity of radionuclide labeling.

[0014] Specifically, in formula ii, using a PEG chain as a linker is expected to increase the overall water solubility of the molecule and improve the drug metabolism rate. At the same time, phenylalanine is introduced near the chelating ligand and the targeting ligand, and the phenyl residues on phenylalanine are used to restrict the overall degree of freedom of the molecule and reduce coiling and promote the elongation conformation of the linker.

[0015] Specifically, in formula vi, the linker is composed of three glutamic acid residues. On the one hand, the carboxyl residues on the glutamic acid provide hydrophilicity and improve the hydrophilic properties of the molecule. On the other hand, the electrostatic interaction between the carboxyl groups prevents the entire molecule from aggregating and increases the target binding affinity.

[0016] Specifically, in formula vii, two cyclohexanes are introduced into the linker pathway to increase chain rigidity and reduce molecular folding. Phenylalanine is introduced near the chelating ligand and the targeting ligand, and the phenyl residues on the phenylalanine are used to restrict the entire molecular degree of freedom, reduce coiling, and promote the elongation conformation of the linker.

[0017] Specifically, in formula viii, two natural tyrosine residues are introduced, and phenolic residues of tyrosine residues are used to increase the steric hindrance of the molecule.

[0018] Specifically, in formula ix, the click reaction between the thiol residue of leucine and maleimide olefin is utilized, which is beneficial for rapid and efficient synthesis. At the same time, maleimide has a certain rigid structure, which can reduce the degree of molecular folding.

[0019] Specifically, in formula x, the linkers are all composed of ring structures, which further improves the rigidity of the linkers. In order to reduce the strong hydrophobicity brought by cyclohexane and benzene ring, sulfonic acid groups are introduced on the benzene ring to increase the hydrophilicity of the linkers and improve the drug's in vivo metabolism rate.

[0020] Specifically, in formula xi, the introduction of PEG significantly improves water solubility, reduces non-specific binding to plasma proteins, prolongs the half-life in blood circulation, increases AUC, reduces clearance rate, and also reduces the risk of being recognized and cleared by the immune system. Simultaneously, the long-chain PEG provides a certain degree of rigidity and protects adjacent groups from enzymatic degradation. The piperazine ring enhances the rigidity of the system and makes metabolism more stable.

[0021] Specifically, in formula xii, the sulfonic acid group provides strong hydrophilicity and negative charge, the trans olefin provides rigidity, and the high-strain ring of cyclopropane significantly restricts the conformation, which is beneficial to maintaining the active conformation. Furthermore, the trans olefin and cyclopropane are relatively stable and have metabolic stability.

[0022] Specifically, in formula xiii, a bispyridine structure is introduced to provide a rigid plane. A short PEG or alkyl chain is inserted in the middle to provide a certain length and flexible connection, which makes it have good water solubility. The rigid structure is conducive to maintaining the molecular shape. Pyridine N can act as a hydrogen bond acceptor to participate in target interactions. The structure is relatively simple.

[0023] Specifically, in formula xiv, both morpholine and tetrazolium have strong hydrophilicity and rigidity, which can maintain conformation and reduce protein binding. As a stable carboxylic acid bioisostere, tetrazolium has good metabolic stability.

[0024] Specifically, in formula xv, the triazole ring serves as the core, providing extremely strong overall rigidity and metabolic stability, reducing the attack sites and rates of metabolic enzymes. The PEG chain provides connection length and a certain degree of flexibility. The rigid linker can reduce the situation where the linker itself folds and blocks the pharmacophore (or targeting ligand).

[0025] Specifically, in formula xvi, phenol readily binds to serum proteins, prolonging its half-life. Phenol itself has a certain rigidity and water solubility, which can improve the bioavailability of lipid-soluble molecules. At the same time, PEG is introduced to protect adjacent groups from enzyme degradation.

[0026] In some embodiments, the targeting ligand is selected from any of the following structures: 3P-C-NETA, DOTA, NOTA, HYNIC, TPA, DTPA, NODAGA, TETA, PCTA, DOTAM.

DOTA can chelate... 64 Cu and 68 Ga is used in PET scans and can also be chelated.111 In and 90 Y is used in SPECT and radiotherapy, and can be combined with the paramagnetic lanthanide metal ion gadolinium for MRI.

[0029] Specifically, the nuclides that DOTA can chelate include: 18 F, 55 Co、 64 Cu、 66 Ga、 68 Ga,NOTA, as a chelating agent, can form stable complexes with metal ions, thereby reducing the interference of metal ions on biomolecules. It consists of four nitrogen atoms forming a six-membered ring structure, which can form stable five-membered ring complexes with metal ions. The advantages of NOTA lie in its strong affinity for metal ions, the stability of the resulting complexes, and its non-toxicity to biomolecules. It is a bifunctional chelate that can be used in PET imaging and can also be used for probe design and signal amplification through multivalent effects.

[0030] In some implementations, the targeting ligand is 3P-C-NETA.

Detailed Implementation

[0047] Terminology Explanation In the context of this invention, "prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)" is a transmembrane protein expressed in various cancers, especially highly expressed in prostate cancer cells, and is an important target for the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer.

[0048] In the context of this invention, the "linker" is a key component connecting the PSMA-targeting molecule to the therapeutic or diagnostic payload. Its main function is to deliver the payload to the target cancer cells while maintaining PSMA specific binding, and to ensure effective drug release at the target site. It should be noted that, in the context of this invention, modifications to the linker based on its improvement principles can be extended to peptide linkers, lipid or albumin-binding linkers, cleavable linkers, and non-cleavable linkers. All strategies for modification based on the principles of this invention are included within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0049] In the context of this invention, "targeting carrier" and "targeting ligand" are two key components of targeted drug delivery. In this context, a targeting ligand refers to a molecule that can specifically recognize and bind to specific molecules (such as receptors, antigens, or enzymes) on the surface or inside the target cell. A molecule that can specifically bind to PSMA is a PSMA targeting ligand. Targeting ligands bind to target molecules with high affinity and high selectivity through intermolecular forces. PSMA targeting ligands typically include specific chemical groups, such as urea derivatives, which can form stable interactions with key amino acid residues in the active site of the PSMA protein.

[0050] In the context of this invention, "targeting carrier" refers to a carrier system used to encapsulate, carry, or conjugate drugs and deliver them to a specific target via a targeting ligand. The targeting carrier can be nanoparticles, liposomes, micelles, polymer conjugates, etc. The targeting ligand is usually conjugated to the surface of the targeting carrier, enabling the carrier to specifically bind to the target molecule via the ligand. For example, in the development of PSMA-targeting radioligands, a molecular structure containing a PSMA targeting unit, a linker, and a chelating agent can be designed. The PSMA targeting unit is the targeting ligand, and the entire molecule (including the linker and chelating agent) can be regarded as a small targeting carrier to deliver the radionuclide to PSMA-expressing tumor cells.

[0079] Verification Example 1 This verification example conducted in vitro and in vivo stability experiments on the radionuclide conjugates targeting PSMA. The specific methods are as follows: Each radionuclide conjugate prepared in Examples 11 to 17 was added to phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), fetal bovine serum (FBS), and each radionuclide conjugate was injected into the tail vein of mice. The radiochemical purity was measured at different time points, and the in vitro stability after adding PBS and FBS and the in vivo stability after injection into mice were detected. The injection dose of the injected mice and the stability results 1 day after injection are shown in Table 1.

The specific method is as follows: Take LNCaP cells in the logarithmic growth phase and use 1×10 5 Cells were seeded per well into 24-well plates and incubated for 24 hours until cell adhesion. All wells were then divided into three groups according to the experimental purpose: the experimental groups were treated with 1 mL of different nuclide-labeled conjugates containing 1 μCi (…). 18 F-LSFZ-04 18 F-LSFZ-05 177 Lu-LSFZ-04 177 Complete culture medium containing Lu-LSFZ-05; the blocking group was treated with 1 mL of different nuclide-labeled conjugates containing 1 μCi. 18 F-LSFZ-04 18 F-LSFZ-05 177 Lu-LSFZ-04 177 Complete culture medium containing Lu-LSFZ-05 and 300 times the blocking dose of 2-PMPA; a control group was also prepared by adding 1 mL of a radionuclide-labeled conjugate containing 1 uCi ( 177 Lu-PSMA-617). 24-well plates were incubated at 37°C. After incubation for 1 h, 2 h, and 4 h, the plates were removed, and the supernatant was transferred to the corresponding supernatant release tube. The plates were then gently washed twice with pre-chilled PBS at 4°C, and the wash liquid was collected into the same supernatant release tube. Sodium hydroxide solution (1M, 1 mL) was added to the cell wells after supernatant removal, and the plates were incubated at 37°C for 10 min to treat the adherent cells. After treatment, sodium hydroxide solution was transferred to the corresponding cell release tube, and the cell wells were gently washed twice with pre-chilled PBS at 4°C, and the wash liquid was collected into the same cell release tube. Each time point in each group had n=5 cells. Cell counts were performed using a PerkinElmer Wizard2 gamma counter. The cell uptake rate per well at each time point was calculated as: [cell counts per minute / (supernatant counts per minute + cell counts per minute)] × 100%. The cell uptake results are shown below. Figure 3 As shown, LNCaP cells can be seen to... 18 F-LSFZ-04 18 Intake of F-LSFZ-05 steadily increased within 4 hours.

No uptake of the radionuclide-labeled conjugate was observed in LNCaP cells of the blocking group.

[0083] Compared to the previously reported compound 3p-C-NETA-ePSMA-16, its labeled 111 The cellular uptake of In-3p-C-NETA-ePSMA-16 in PSMA-highly expressed LS174T cells was 1.40 AD / 10. 6 1 cell, while the control group 111 The result for In-PSMA-617 was 4.83 AD / 10. 6 In 100 cells, 3p-C-NETA-ePSMA-16 showed lower uptake results.

[0084] Verification Example 3 This validation example demonstrates a competitive binding assay of PSMA-targeting compounds in LNCaP cells. The specific method is as follows: Take LNCaP cells in the logarithmic growth phase and use 2×10⁻⁶ cells... 4 Seed cells / well into 96-well plates and incubate for 24 hours until cells are fully adhered. Divide all wells into 3 groups according to the experimental purpose, discard the old culture medium, and add 150 μL of culture medium at a ratio of 1:10. -4 M to 10 - 12 Complete culture medium containing cold LSFZ-04, LSFZ-05, and PSMA-617 at M concentration gradients; then add 100 μL of a solution containing 1 μCi to each well. 177 Lu-PSMA-617 cells were incubated at 37°C. After 4 hours of incubation, the 96-well plate was removed, the supernatant was discarded, and the cells were gently washed twice with pre-chilled PBS (4°C). Sodium hydroxide solution (1M, 100 μL) was added to the wells after the supernatant was removed, and the plates were incubated at 37°C for 10 minutes to treat the adherent cells. After treatment, sodium hydroxide solution was transferred to the corresponding cell group's radioimmunoassay tube, and the wells were gently washed twice with pre-chilled PBS (4°C). Cells were collected into the same cell group's radioimmunoassay tube. Each group had n=5 cells at each time point. Cell counting was performed using a PerkinElmer Wizard 2 γ-ray counter. The results of the competitive binding of cells are shown below. Figure 4As shown, the IC50 values ​​of LSFZ-04, LSFZ-05, and PSMA-617 were 13.23 nM, 7.44 nM, and 16.31 nM, respectively. The compounds LSFZ-04 and LSFZ-05 prepared in this invention have a better affinity for PSMA than PSMA-617.

[0085] Compared to the previously reported compound 3p-C-NETA-ePSMA-16, its IC50 result for PSMA is also high, but it is only 1 / 5 of that of PSMA-617. This indicates that the PSMA-targeting compound prepared in this invention has better potential than existing technologies.

[0088] At the same time, verification 18 F-LSFZ-04 and 18The hydrophilicity of F-LSFZ-05 is determined by the following method: partition coefficient (LogD). 7.4 The determination was performed using the shake-flask method, and the experiment was repeated three times. 18 F-LSFZ-04 and 18 F-LSFZ-05 was added to a mixture of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, 0.01 M, pH 7.4) and n-octanol (500 μL). The mixture was vigorously vortexed and centrifuged for 15 minutes to achieve phase separation. Samples (3 aliquots, 10 μL each) were taken from each phase and counted using a PerkinElmer Wizard 2 gamma counter. LogD 7.4 The value is calculated using the following formula: LogD 7.4 = log [(count of n-octanol phase) / (count of aqueous phase)]. The results of the determined lipid-water partition coefficient can be found in [reference needed]. Figure 9 and Figure 10 , 18 The lipid-water partition coefficient of F-LSFZ-04: LogP = -2.673, LogD 7.4 = -2.961; 18 The lipid-water partition coefficient of F-LSFZ-04: LogP = -2.878, LogD 7.4 = -2.943. This indicates that the nuclide conjugate formed by this linker has excellent hydrophilicity.

LNCaP-bearing mice were anesthetized at 1, 2, and 4 hours post-injection. The deeply anesthetized mice were then placed in a supine position on a PET / CT scanning table for continuous PET and CT image acquisition. Mice in the blockade group received an additional 300-fold molar dose of 2-PMPA, and were anesthetized 60 minutes post-injection for PET and CT image acquisition.

[0093] The linkers, compounds, and radionuclide conjugates provided in the context of this invention can be prepared into pharmaceutically acceptable salts, prodrugs, and esters through appropriate processes, or they can be mixed with pharmaceutical carriers in proportion to form pharmaceutical compositions, adapting to different administration scenarios and clinical needs.

[0094] For example, pharmaceutically acceptable salts are typically obtained through conventional acid-base reactions of linkers, compounds, or radionuclide conjugates with inorganic acids, organic acids, inorganic bases, or organic bases. Following the reaction, crystallization, filtration, and purification steps yield the target salt product, commonly including hydrochlorides, sulfates, phosphates, acetates, maleates, sodium salts, potassium salts, and ammonium salts. This type of process optimizes the physicochemical properties of the active ingredient. Another example is prodrugs, prepared by chemically modifying the active groups of linkers, compounds, or radionuclide conjugates. Modification methods, such as acylation and alkylation, are chosen based on the type of active group. After entering the body, the modified product undergoes endogenous enzymatic hydrolysis and other metabolic processes to be converted into the biologically active original substance. Yet another example is esters, prepared through esterification reactions of the active groups in linkers, compounds, or radionuclide conjugates with carboxylic acids or alcohols. Following the reaction, separation and purification remove byproducts. The resulting esters can adjust the lipid-water partition coefficient of the active ingredient, thereby optimizing its distribution and metabolic efficiency in vivo. For example, it can also be prepared into a pharmaceutical carrier. The pharmaceutical carrier is selected and matched according to the requirements of the route of administration. The carrier components such as diluents, binders, disintegrants, and solubilizers are mixed with the active ingredients in proportion. After processing such as stirring, granulation, and drying, a uniform and stable drug composition is formed, which is suitable for different forms of administration such as oral administration and injection.

[0095] The linkers, compounds, or radionuclide conjugates provided in this invention can also be used as active ingredients in the preparation of injectable formulations. The active ingredient is first dissolved in a solvent such as water for injection or physiological saline, and then excipients such as solubilizers and stabilizers are added to adjust the system stability. This formulation is suitable for intravenous, arterial, and intramuscular injection routes, enabling the active ingredient to rapidly enter the bloodstream for targeted delivery systemically or locally. During injection preparation, the active ingredient, solvent, and excipients are thoroughly mixed and stirred until homogeneous. The pH and osmotic pressure of the system are adjusted to a suitable range. The solution is then filtered for sterilization, filled, and sealed. After sterilization and clarity and content testing, a qualified injectable solution is obtained, suitable for intravenous, arterial, and intramuscular injection routes. After preparation, the injectable solution is dispensed into sterile injection containers according to specifications, sealed, and stored in a light-protected, temperature-controlled environment. Regular testing of radionuclide activity and component stability ensures the formulation can be used normally within its shelf life.

[0096] In the context of this invention, the linkers, compounds, and radionuclide conjugates are used to prepare imaging diagnostic reagents through radionuclide labeling and targeted assembly. By leveraging the radioactive signal of the radionuclide and the targeting ability of the compound, image capture and assessment of lesion areas are achieved. After the radionuclide is conjugated with the compound and linker, it is separated and purified by methods such as chromatography and centrifugation to remove unlabeled radionuclides and reaction impurities. After activity testing and sterilization, the diagnostic reagent is obtained. In use, the radionuclide signal is captured by imaging equipment to form lesion images.

[0097] The linkers, compounds, or radionuclide conjugates provided in the context of this invention can also be used to prepare reagents for diagnosing prostate cancer and / or its metastases. In the preparation process, compounds that can specifically bind to prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) are selected, and they are stably conjugated to radionuclides through linkers. After the reaction, the reaction system is optimized to improve the conjugation efficiency, so that the radionuclides can accurately aggregate with the compounds at the primary and metastatic lesions of prostate cancer. Then, impurities are removed through purification.

[0098] The linkers, compounds, or radionuclide conjugates provided in the context of this invention can also be used to prepare medicaments for the treatment of prostate cancer and / or its metastases.
