Abstract
Description
[0001] Citation of relevant applications This patent application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2023-212506, filed on December 15, 2023, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] This invention relates to a divalent BET degrader that has a degrading effect on BET protein and a target molecule-drug complex containing the divalent BET degrader as a drug. Background Technology
[0003] In the human body, 46 bromodomain proteins that recognize acetylated lysine residues in histones are known. As one family, the BET (bromodomain and extra-terminal domain) family has been reported to recognize acetylated lysine residues in histones H3 and H4. Within the BET family, BRD (bromodomain containing protein) 2, BRD3, BRD4, and BRDT (bromodomain testis specific protein) are known. BET family proteins possess two bromodomains (BD1, BD2) at their N-terminus, and their sequences are highly conserved across families. Furthermore, BET proteins have been reported to participate in cancer proliferation [see Non-Patent Literature 1 and 2] and the progression of inflammation [see Non-Patent Literature 3].
[0004] BRD4 recruits P-TEBb to mitotic chromosomes, thereby increasing the expression of growth-promoting genes. Increased expression of c-MYC protein was confirmed in NUT-midline carcinoma (NMC) via the BRD4-NUT fusion protein [see Non-Patent Literature 4]. Furthermore, it has been reported that in MM1.S cells from human multiple myeloma, among genes whose expression was reduced by treatment with the BET inhibitor JQ-1, the reduction in MYC gene expression was the most significant [see Non-Patent Literature 5].
[0005] Representative BET inhibitors include RVX-208 / Apabetalone [see Non-Patent Literature 6], I-BET762 / GSK-525762A [see Non-Patent Literature 7], OTX-015 / MK8628 [see Non-Patent Literature 8], CPI-0610 [see Non-Patent Literature 9], TEN-010 [see Non-Patent Literature 10], and ABBV-075 [see Non-Patent Literature 11], but none have yet received pharmaceutical approval.
[0006] In addition, in recent years, compounds exhibiting stronger BET inhibitory activity by simultaneously inhibiting the BD1 and BD2 domains have been reported as divalent BET inhibitors [see Non-Patent Literature 12]. As such divalent BET inhibitors, compounds represented by the following formulas (P1) to (P6) are known, for example [see Non-Patent Literature 12 and 17, Patent Literature 1, 2 and 3].
[0007] [Chemical Formula 1] Furthermore, compounds that degrade BET protein via the ubiquitin-proteasome system have been reported as novel BET functional modulators. It is known that degrading BET protein can induce apoptosis in cancer cells more efficiently than BET inhibitors [see Non-Patent Literature 13]. Therefore, BET degraders are expected to become superior anticancer agents compared to BET inhibitors.
[0008] Regarding the aforementioned divalent form, it is also known that it can be used as a BET degrading agent by using spacer groups of specific structures to bond two small molecule ligands of BET proteins. More specifically, for example, as a compound Methyl-1-propionyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-4-yl)amino)phenyl Methyl-1-propionyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-4-yl)amino)phenyl)ureido)acetamide (hereinafter referred to as g in this specification) and the like are known [see Patent Document 4].
[0009] Antibody-drug complexes (ADCs) consist of monoclonal antibodies covalently bonded to a drug via a linker that is typically chemically synthesized. Combining the high specificity of antibodies with the potent killing effect of drugs enables the accurate and efficient removal of target cells. Currently, the cytotoxic payloads used in FDA-approved ADCs are primarily potent microtubule inhibitors, DNA damaging agents, and topoisomerase I inhibitors [see Non-Patent Literature 14].
[0010] An antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) has been reported, consisting of a drug that degrades BET protein (GNE-987) represented by formula (P7) [see Non-Patent Literature 15] and a drug that degrades BET protein (EBET-1593) represented by formula (P8) [see Non-Patent Literature 16], obtained by conjugating an antibody with a linker. However, no clinical trials have been conducted, and it is unclear whether BET degraders can function effectively as payloads for such antibody-drug complexes.

Furthermore, the inventors found that the discovered divalent BET degrader is also useful as a payload (drug) in targeted molecule-drug complexes such as antibody-drug complexes (ADCs).

[0199] Nitrogen-containing aliphatic heterocyclic groups A nitrogen-containing aliphatic heterocyclic group is an aliphatic heterocyclic group that contains one or more nitrogen atoms as ring-forming elements in addition to carbon atoms. The number of nitrogen atoms in the nitrogen-containing aliphatic heterocyclic group is, for example, 1 to 3, preferably 1 or 2, more preferably 2. The number of carbon atoms in the nitrogen-containing aliphatic heterocyclic group can be appropriately determined according to the number of heteroatoms and elements in the nitrogen-containing aliphatic heterocyclic group. There is no particular limitation on the connecting bonds of the nitrogen-containing aliphatic heterocyclic group, but it is preferred that the connecting bonds are present in nitrogen atoms. The nitrogen-containing aliphatic heterocyclic group may also contain one or more heteroatoms other than nitrogen atoms selected from the group consisting of oxygen atoms and sulfur atoms.

[0212] Examples of aryl groups include phenyl, 1-naphthyl, and 2-naphthyl. Phenyl is preferred.
[0213] Antibody Antibodies (immunoglobulins) are glycoproteins consisting of two heavy chains (hereinafter referred to as "H chains") and two light chains (hereinafter referred to as "L chains"). There are five types of antibodies: IgG, IgM, IgA, IgD, and IgE. The basic structure of antibodies is common to all types: the two heavy chains and two light chains are bonded together by disulfide bonds and non-covalent bonds, forming a Y-shaped four-chain structure.
[0214] The N-terminal domains of both the heavy and light chains are called variable regions, which are related to the specificity of antibody-antigen binding. The amino acid sequence of the C-terminal domain downstream of the variable region is called the constant region (hereinafter also referred to as the "C region"). The heavy chain has a heavy chain variable region (VH) and a heavy chain constant region (CH) from the N-terminus to the C-terminus. The CH region is further divided into three domains from the N-terminus: CH1, CH2, and CH3. The light chain has a light chain variable region (VL) and a light chain constant region (CL) from the N-terminus to the C-terminus.
[0215] Both VH and VL antibodies contain three complementarity determining regions (CDRs): CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3. CDRs determine the specificity against the antigen, and therefore their amino acid sequences vary significantly between antibodies; they are also known as hypervariable domains. The regions outside the CDRs in the variable region are called frame regions (FRs), where the amino acid sequence changes less. CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 in VH are also referred to as CDRH1, CDRH2, and CDRH3, respectively, while those in VL are referred to as CDRL1, CDRL2, and CDRL3, respectively.
[0216] In this specification, the amino acid positions assigned to CDR and FR are specified according to the Kabat number (see Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest (National Institute of Health, Bethesda, Md., (1987) and (1991)).
[0217] In this specification, the amino acid positions in the constant region are specified according to the Kabat EU number (see Sequences of proteins of immunological interest, NIH Publication No. 91-3242).
[0218] The antibody can be a polyclonal antibody or a monoclonal antibody, with monoclonal antibodies being preferred.
[0219] Examples of monoclonal antibodies include antibodies produced by hybridomas and recombinant antibodies produced by transformants obtained by transforming a vector containing an antibody gene.
[0220] Monoclonal antibodies are antibodies secreted by antibody-producing cells of a single clone, recognizing only one epitope (also known as an antigenic determinant). The amino acid sequence (primary structure) that makes up a monoclonal antibody is homogeneous.
[0221] Hybridomas can be prepared, for example, by inducing antigen-specific antibody-producing cells in animals immunized with an antigen, and then fusing these antibody-producing cells with myeloma cells. Monoclonal antibodies can be obtained by culturing the hybridoma, or by administering the hybridoma cells to an animal to induce ascites carcinogenesis, and then isolating and purifying the monoclonal antibodies from the culture medium or ascites. Any animal capable of producing a hybridoma can be used as the immunizing animal, but mice, rats, hamsters, chickens, and rabbits are preferred. Monoclonal antibodies can also be antibodies produced from hybridomas created by fusing antibody-producing cells obtained from animals with myeloma cells after in vitro immunization of these cells.
[0222] As examples of recombinant antibodies, human chimeric antibodies, humanized antibodies, and human antibodies are antibodies produced through gene recombination.
[0223] Human chimeric antibodies are antibodies containing the VH and VL of antibodies from animals other than humans, and the CH and CL of human antibodies. Human chimeric antibodies can be manufactured by obtaining the DNA encoding the VH and VL of antibodies from animals other than humans, inserting them into animal cell expression vectors containing the DNA encoding the CH and CL of human antibodies, respectively, to construct human chimeric antibody expression vectors, and then introducing them into animal cells for expression.
[0224] For human chimeric antibodies, the CH (chromatogram) can be any human immunoglobulin (hIg), for example, an hIgG subclass CH, specifically hIgG1, hIgG2, hIgG3, hIgG4, or their modifications. The CL (chromatogram) can be any hIg, for example, a CL of the human κ chain or human λ chain.
[0225] Examples of humanized antibodies include human CDR transplantation antibodies and humanized antibodies based on surface remodeling methods. Antibodies manufactured using methods combining these methods are also included in the category of humanized antibodies. Antibodies consisting of an amino acid sequence obtained by deleting, substituting, inserting, or adding one or more amino acids to the amino acid sequence of a humanized antibody designed using these methods, and capable of binding to a target antigen (preferably specifically binding), are also included in the category of humanized antibodies.
[0226] Human CDR transplanted antibodies are antibodies obtained by transplanting the amino acid sequences of the CDRs of the VH and VL regions of an animal antibody (excluding humans) to appropriate positions in the VH and VL regions of a human antibody. Human CDR transplanted antibodies can be manufactured as follows: DNA encoding the CDRs of the VH and VL regions of a monoclonal antibody (excluding humans) capable of binding (preferably specifically binding) to a target antigen is constructed by transplanting the amino acid sequences of the CDRs of the VH and VL regions of any human antibody into the frame region (FR) of the VH and VL regions. This results in the V region of the DNA. Subsequently, the DNA is inserted into an animal cell expression vector containing the CH and CL regions encoding the human antibody, respectively, to construct a human CDR transplanted antibody expression vector, which is then introduced into animal cells for expression.
[0227] Humanized antibodies based on surface remodeling are antibodies obtained by replacing amino acid residues in the variable region of antibodies from animals other than humans—specifically, the FR residues that are considered not to affect the binding activity of the antibody—with amino acid residues that are considered to reduce antigenicity using surface remodeling methods (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 1994, 91(3): 969-73 and Protein Engineering 1996, 10, 895-90). Humanized antibodies based on surface remodeling can be manufactured as follows: DNA encoding a monoclonal antibody from an animal other than humans that can bind (preferably specifically binds) to a target antigen by replacing any amino acid residue in the FR region of the VH and VL regions with other amino acid residues. Then, these are inserted into animal cell expression vectors containing DNA encoding the CH and CL regions of a human antibody, respectively, to construct a humanized antibody expression vector based on surface remodeling, which is then introduced into animal cells for expression.
[0228] The CH of a humanized antibody can be any human immunoglobulin (hIg) as long as it belongs to the human immunoglobulin family. For example, it can be a CH of the hIgG class, specifically a CH of hIgG1, hIgG2, hIgG3, hIgG4, or their modifications. The CL of a humanized antibody can be any hIg as long as it belongs to the hIg family. For example, it can be a CL of the human κ chain or the human λ chain.
[0229] Human antibodies originally refer to antibodies that naturally exist in the human body, but antibodies obtained from human antibody phage libraries created using recent advancements in genetic engineering, cell engineering, and developmental engineering, as well as antibodies from transgenic animals that produce human antibodies, are also included in the category of human antibodies.
[0230] Regarding antibodies that naturally exist in the human body, for example, human peripheral blood lymphocytes can be isolated, infected with EB virus, etc. to make them immortal, cloned, and then cultured to produce lymphocytes that can produce the antibody. The antibody can then be purified from the culture supernatant.
[0231] Human antibody phage libraries are obtained by inserting antibody genes prepared from human B cells or B cells of transgenic animals producing human antibodies into phage genes, thereby expressing antibody fragments such as Fab and scFv on the surface of phages. Phages expressing antibody fragments with the desired antigen-binding activity can be recovered from this library using the binding activity against substrates with immobilized antigens as an indicator. These antibody fragments can also be further transformed into human antibody molecules containing two complete H chains and two complete L chains using genetic engineering methods.
[0232] Transgenic animals that produce human antibodies are animals whose cells have integrated human antibody genes. Specifically, for example, a human antibody gene can be introduced into mouse ES cells, and these ES cells can be transplanted into early mouse embryos to allow development, thereby creating transgenic mice that produce human antibodies. Human antibodies from transgenic animals that produce human antibodies can be produced as follows: using hybridoma manufacturing methods typically performed in animals other than humans, hybridomas producing human antibodies are obtained, cultured, and human antibodies are produced and accumulated in the culture supernatant. Alternatively, B cells from transgenic animals that produce human antibodies can be isolated, cloned, and the human antibody gene isolated.
[0233] Antigen-binding fragments of antibodies An antibody's antigen-binding fragment is a segment of the antibody that possesses binding activity against a target antigen. The antigen-binding fragment of an antibody is also called the functional fragment of the antibody. Examples of antigen-binding fragments of antibodies include Fab, F(ab')2, Fab', single-chain antibodies (scFv), dimerized V regions (diabody antibodies), disulfide-stabilized V regions (dsFv), and peptides containing CDRs.
[0234] Fab is a fragment with a molecular weight of approximately 50,000, possessing antigen-binding activity, formed by the bonding of approximately half of the N-terminal side of the heavy chain to the entire L chain via disulfide bonds, obtained by treating antibodies with papain. Fab can be obtained by treating antibodies with papain. Alternatively, Fab can be manufactured by inserting the DNA encoding the antibody into a prokaryotic or eukaryotic expression vector, introducing the vector into prokaryotes or eukaryotes, and expressing the expression.
[0235] F(ab')2 is a fragment with an antigen-binding activity, consisting of two Fab regions bonded together via the hinge region, obtained by degrading the lower part of the disulfide bond in the hinge region of an antibody using pepsin. F(ab')2 can be obtained by treating antibodies with pepsin. Alternatively, F(ab')2 can be manufactured by bonding the Fab' regions with thioether or disulfide bonds.
[0236] Fab' is a fragment with a molecular weight of approximately 50,000 that possesses antigen-binding activity, obtained by cleaving the disulfide bonds in the hinge region of F(ab')2. Fab' can be obtained by treating F(ab')2 with reducing agents such as dithiothreitol. Alternatively, Fab' can be manufactured by inserting DNA encoding Fab' into a prokaryotic or eukaryotic expression vector, introducing the vector into prokaryotes or eukaryotes, and expressing the expression.
[0237] scFv is an antigen-binding fragment obtained by linking one VH and one VL via a suitable peptide linker (hereinafter referred to as P), and is represented by VH-P-VL or VL-P-VH.
[0238] scFv can be manufactured by: constructing DNA encoding scFv using DNA encoding VH and VL, inserting the DNA into a prokaryotic or eukaryotic expression vector, and introducing the expression vector into a prokaryotic or eukaryotic organism for expression.
[0239] Dimeric antibodies are fragments obtained by dimerization of scFv and possess bivalent antigen-binding activity. The bivalent antigen-binding activities can be the same or different.
[0240] Bisomatic antibodies can be manufactured by using DNA encoding VH and VL, constructing DNA encoding scFv with the amino acid sequence of the peptide linker being less than 8 residues in length, inserting the DNA into a prokaryotic or eukaryotic expression vector, and introducing the expression vector into a prokaryote or eukaryote for expression.
[0241] dsFv is a polypeptide obtained by replacing one amino acid residue in each of VH and VL with a cysteine residue, which is then bonded by disulfide bonds between the cysteine residues. The amino acid residues to be replaced with cysteine residues can be selected based on the stereostructure prediction of the antibody according to known methods [Protein Engineering, 7, 697 (1994)].
[0242] dsFv can be manufactured as follows: using cDNA encoding VH and VL, constructing DNA encoding dsFv, inserting the DNA into a prokaryotic or eukaryotic expression vector, introducing the expression vector into a prokaryotic or eukaryotic organism, and expressing it.
[0243] A peptide containing a CDR is composed of at least one region of a CDR containing either VH or VL. Multiple peptides containing CDRs can be directly bonded or bonded together via appropriate peptide linkers.
[0244] Peptides containing CDRs can be manufactured by constructing DNA encoding CDRs for VH and VL, inserting this DNA into a prokaryotic or eukaryotic expression vector, introducing the expression vector into a prokaryotic or eukaryotic organism, and expressing it. Alternatively, peptides containing CDRs can also be manufactured using chemical synthesis methods such as the Fmoc method and the Boc method.
[0245] Bispecific antibodies and multispecific antibodies An antibody or its antigen-binding fragment may have binding specificity for one antigen or for two or more different antigens. In this specification, an antibody or its antigen-binding fragment that has binding specificity for two or more different antigens is referred to as a multispecific antibody.

[0340] Method 2 According to a second aspect of the invention, a targeted molecule-drug complex can be provided, comprising a targeted molecule and a drug, wherein the drug is compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The targeted molecule-drug complex of the second aspect can avoid safety concerns such as peripheral neurotoxicity while maintaining high antitumor activity. By complexing the drug (bivalent BET degrader) with the targeted molecule, the drug can be efficiently delivered to target cells. Therefore, by complexing the drug (bivalent BET degrader) with the targeted molecule, an antitumor effect can be exhibited in vivo with a smaller amount of drug (converted to bivalent BET degrader) compared to the drug alone.
[0341] Target molecules are, for example, molecules that can bind to proteins or peptides present on the surface of target cells. By binding target molecules to proteins or peptides present on the surface of target cells, drugs can be delivered to the target cells. Preferably, the target molecule can specifically bind to proteins or peptides present on the surface of target cells. "Specificity" means that the target molecule does not show significant binding activity to other substances.
[0342] Target cells are preferably cancer cells. Examples of target cells include proteins or peptides present on the surface of cancer cells, such as receptors, cancer antigens, MHC antigens, and differentiation antigens. Proteins or peptides may also be presented on the surface of cancer cells by binding to MHC class I or MHC class II molecules.
[0343] The cancer is preferably a hematologic malignancy, more preferably a lymphoma, and even more preferably a B-cell lymphoma. Therefore, the proteins or peptides present on the surface of cancer cells are proteins or peptides expressed in the lymphocytes (preferably B cells) of an organism suffering from a hematologic malignancy, more preferably a lymphoma, and even more preferably a B-cell lymphoma.
[0344] Examples of molecules such as proteins or peptides present on the surface of cancer cells include folic acid receptor α (FoLRα), somatostatin receptor (SSTR2), fibroblast activation protein (FAP), erythropoietin-producing hepatocyte receptor A2 (EphA2), CD79b, CD19, CD22, HER2, Nectin4, TROP2, DLL3, PSMA, B7H3, B7H4, CD30, CD33, CD25, CD38, CD74, GM2, CADM1, CLL1, BCMA, HER3, and CDH6. Among them, somatostatin receptor, fibroblast activation protein, erythropoietin-producing hepatocyte receptor A2, CD79b, CD19, CD22, HER2, Nectin4, TROP2, DLL3, CD30, CD33, CD25, CD38, CD74, GM2, CADM1, BCMA and CLL1 are preferred, CD79b, CD19, CD22, CD30, CD33, CD25, CD38, BCMA and CD74 are more preferred, and CD79b, CD19, CD22, CD30 and BCMA are even more preferred.

[0346] Examples of low molecular weight compounds include folic acid, oncoFAP, AAZ+, and 2-[3-(1,3-dicarboxypropyl)urea]-glutaric acid (DUPA).
[0347] Folic acid can bind to folate receptors. Therefore, a target molecule-drug complex containing folate as a target molecule can target cells with folate receptors on their surface (CPLeamon et al. Cancer Res. 2008, 68, 9839-9844).
[0348] The synthetic low-molecular-weight compound known as oncoFAP can bind to fibroblast activation proteins. Therefore, the targeting molecule-drug complex containing octreotide as the targeting molecule can target cells with fibroblast activation proteins on their surface (J. Millu et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 2021, 118,e2101852118).
[0349] Synthetic low-molecular-weight compounds known as AAZ+ can bind to carbonic anhydrase 9. Therefore, a target molecule-drug complex containing AAZ+ as a target molecule can target cells with carbonic anhydrase 9 on their surface (S. Cazzamalli et al. J Am Chem Soc, 2018, 140, 1617-1621).
[0350] DUPA can bind to prostate-specific membrane antigens. Therefore, a targeting molecule-drug complex containing DUPA as a targeting molecule can target cells with prostate-specific membrane antigens on their surface (J. Roy et al. J.Med. Chem. 2015, 58, 3094-3103).
[0351] Examples of peptides include BCY6099, octreotide, RGD peptide, Exendin-4, toad peptide-like peptide, and BCY8234.
[0352] The bicyclic peptide BCY6099 can bind to erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular receptor A2. Therefore, a targeting molecule-drug complex containing BCY6099 as the targeting molecule can target cells with erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular receptor A2 on their surface (G. Bennett et al. Mol Cancer Ther 2020, 19, 1385-1394).
[0353] Octreotide can bind to the somatostatin receptor, especially somatostatin receptor subtype 2. Therefore, a targeting molecule-drug complex containing octreotide as the targeting molecule can target cells with somatostatin receptor subtype 2 on their surface (BHWhite et al. J. Med. Chem. 2019, 62, 2708-2719).
[0354] RGD peptides can bind to integrin receptors, especially αvβ3 integrin receptors. Therefore, targeting molecule-drug complexes containing RGD peptides as targeting molecules can target cells with αvβ3 integrin receptors on their surface (M. Lelle et al. J. Med. Chem. 2005, 48, 1098-1106).
[0355] Exendin-4 can bind to the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor. Therefore, a targeting molecule-drug complex containing Exendin-4 as the targeting molecule can target cells with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors on their surface (S. Son et al. The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology. 105, 13-19.).
[0356] Bufotinoids can bind to bufotinoid receptors. Therefore, targeting molecule-drug complexes containing bufotinoids as targeting molecules can target cells with bufotinoid receptors on their surface (A. Safavy et al. Bioconjugate Chem. 2006, 17, 565-570).
[0357] BCY8234 can bind to Nectin-4. Therefore, a targeting molecule-drug complex containing BCY8234 as a targeting molecule can target cells with Nectin-4 on their surface (M. Rigby et al. Mol Cancer TherMCT-21-0875.).
