Background Technology
[0004] RNA interference is a phenomenon in which target mRNA is efficiently and specifically degraded by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA, also known as siRNA).
[0005] However, current siRNA therapies mostly focus on treating liver-related diseases through N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc)-based delivery vectors, making it difficult to deliver siRNA to extrahepatic tissues (such as the eye or central nervous system) to exert their effects, which limits the application of siRNA. Some attempts have been made in the field to deliver siRNA extrahepatically; for example, WO2004094595A2 discloses the delivery of siRNA using a single lipid ligand (e.g., cholesterol or long-chain alkanes) at the chain end, WO2019217459A1 discloses the delivery of siRNA using a single lipid ligand within the chain, and WO2021092371A2 discloses a series of novel lipid ligand structures.
[0006] There is still a need in this field to develop more ligands based on hydrophobic groups for more efficient extrahepatic delivery. Summary of the Invention

[0041] The carbonyl group, whether used alone or in combination with other terms (such as aminocarbonyl), is represented as -C(O)-.
[0042] "Oxyto" means =O.
[0043] The term "lipid" broadly refers to any chemical group that has an affinity for lipids. One way to characterize the hydrophobicity of a hydrophobic group is through the octanol-water partition coefficient logK. ow K ow This represents the ratio of the concentration of a chemical substance in the octanol phase to its concentration in the aqueous phase at equilibrium in a two-phase system. Typically, the logK of the hydrophobic portion... ow More than 1, more than 1.5, more than 2, more than 3, more than 4, more than 5, or more than 10.
[0044] In this invention, "lipid" can be a molecule with a straight-chain alkyl group as its backbone, which may optionally be replaced by one or more hydroxyl or carbonyl groups, i.e., a "straight-chain lipid". When the straight-chain alkyl group is replaced by one or more carbonyl groups, one or more carbon atoms of the straight-chain alkyl group exist in the form of -C(O)-. The total number of carbon atoms present in various forms in a lipid is the total number of carbon atoms contained in the lipid molecule. When a lipid is represented as "-C14-", it indicates that the lipid contains 14 carbon atoms. When a lipid is represented as "-C(O)-C11-", it indicates that the lipid contains a total of 12 carbon atoms, one of which exists in the form of -C(O)-, and the other 11 carbon atoms are represented as "C11", and so on. -C(O)-C13-, -C(O)-C14-, -C(O)-C15-, -C(O)-C16-, -C(O)-C17-, -C(O)-C18-, -C(O)-C19-, -C(O)-C20-, -C(O)-C21-, etc., represent lipids containing one -C(O)- and different numbers of carbon atoms. When a lipid is represented as "-CC(OH)-C14-", it indicates that the lipid contains a total of 16 carbon atoms, one of which is substituted with a hydroxyl group (-OH). When a lipid is represented as "-C(O)-C19:4-", it indicates that the lipid contains 20 carbon atoms, one of which is in the form of -C(O)-, and the other 19 carbons contain 4 double bonds, represented as "C19:4", and so on. Exemplary groups are... .
[0045] The term "hydrophobic group" refers to a lipid that optionally contains a terminal group at its end. When the lipid does not contain a terminal group (or the terminal group is hydrogen), the term "hydrophobic group" is synonymous with "lipid." The terminal group is as defined by the T group in this invention.
[0046] When any variable (such as R) appears more than once in the composition or structure of a compound, the definition of that variable is independent each time it appears. Therefore, for example, if a group is substituted by 0-2 Rs, that group can optionally be substituted by up to two Rs, where the definition of R is independent each time it appears. Furthermore, combinations of substituents and / or their variants are only permitted if the combination produces a stable compound.
[0047] When one of the variables is a single bond, it means that the two groups connected by that single bond are directly linked. For example, when L in ALB represents a single bond, the structure of ALB is actually AB.
[0048] When the linking group (i.e., the divalent group) listed does not specify its linking direction, the linking direction is arbitrary. For example, when the linking group L in ALB is -MW-, -MW- can be linked to variables A and B in the same direction according to the reading order from left to right, forming A-MW-B, or it can be linked to ring A and ring B in the opposite direction according to the reading order from left to right, forming A-WM-B. Preferably, in this document, when the divalent group -MW- is in the nucleotide chain, its left-to-right linking direction represents the linking direction from the nucleotide chain to the terminal group, for example, the linking direction from the nucleotide chain to the 3' end or the linking direction from the nucleotide chain to the 5' end. For example, in general formula (III), (III) When L1' is At that time, the connection direction from left to right corresponds to the connection direction from the Z end of the nucleotide chain to the 5' end (i.e., T'). structure; When L1 is At that time, the connection direction from left to right corresponds to the connection direction from the Z end to the 3' end (i.e., T) of the nucleotide chain, that is... structure.
[0049] Combinations of linking groups, substituents, and / or their variants are permitted only if a stable compound can be obtained. Unless otherwise specified, when a group has one or more linkable sites, any one or more sites of that group can be linked to other groups by chemical bonds. When the linking positions of chemical bonds are variable and there is an H atom at a linkable site, when a linkable site with an H atom is linked to a chemical bond, the number of H atoms at that site decreases accordingly as the number of linked chemical bonds increases, and the group becomes a group with the corresponding valence.

[0053] Other definitions
[0054] The term "extrahepatic delivery" in this document refers to the delivery of oligonucleotides or double-stranded RNA molecules to tissues outside the liver, including but not limited to the eye, central nervous system, lung, muscle, kidney, heart, spleen, and pancreas. Those skilled in the art will understand that different administration methods are required to improve delivery efficiency depending on the target tissue. For example, delivery to the central nervous system may be via intrathecal injection, delivery to the eye may be via intraocular injection, delivery to muscle may be via intramuscular injection, and delivery to the lung may be via aerosol formulation or direct systemic administration, including but not limited to subcutaneous injection.
[0055] The term "extrahepatic expression" in this article refers to genes that are specifically or non-specifically expressed in extrahepatic tissues, including but not limited to the eyes, central nervous system, lungs, muscles, kidneys, heart, spleen, and pancreas.
[0056] In this invention, muscle tissue includes, but is not limited to, skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle. Skeletal muscle includes, but is not limited to, the quadriceps femoris, latissimus dorsi, erector spinae, rectus abdominis, and trapezius. Adipose tissue includes, but is not limited to, subcutaneous fat, gonadal fat, periabdominal white adipose tissue (pgWAT), inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT), and brown adipose tissue (BAT).
[0057] The term "oligonucleotide" in this document refers to a nucleic acid molecule (RNA or DNA) having a length of less than 100, 200, 300, or 400 nucleotides. Oligonucleotides can be single-stranded or double-stranded. When an oligonucleotide is single-stranded, it is, for example, ASO. When an oligonucleotide is double-stranded, it is, for example, siRNA, miRNA, or shRNA. An oligonucleotide may optionally contain terminal modifications (as defined below) at the 5' and / or 3' ends of one or both strands.
[0058] The term "siRNA" in this article refers to a class of double-stranded RNA molecules that can mediate the silencing of a complementary target RNA (e.g., mRNA, such as transcripts of proteins-encoding genes). siRNA is typically double-stranded, consisting of an antisense strand complementary to the target RNA and a sense strand complementary to that antisense strand. For convenience, such mRNA is also referred to herein as the mRNA to be silenced. Such genes are also called target genes. Typically, the RNA to be silenced is an endogenous gene or a pathogen gene. Additionally, RNA other than mRNA (e.g., tRNA) and viral RNA can also be targeted.
[0059] The term "antisense strand" refers to a strand of siRNA that contains regions that are completely, sufficiently, or substantially complementary to the target sequence. The term "sense strand" refers to a strand of siRNA that includes regions that are completely, sufficiently, or substantially complementary to the regions defined herein as antisense strands.
[0060] The term "complementary region" refers to a region on the antisense strand that is completely, fully, or substantially complementary to the target mRNA sequence. In cases where the complementary region is not perfectly complementary to the target sequence, mismatches can occur within the molecule or at the ends. Typically, the most tolerant mismatches are located in the end regions, for example, within 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1 nucleotides at the 5' and / or 3' ends. The portion of the antisense strand most sensitive to mismatches is called the "seed region." For example, in a siRNA containing a 19-nt strand, the 19th position (from 5' to 3') can tolerate some mismatches.
[0061] The term "complementary" refers to the ability of a first polynucleotide to hybridize with a second polynucleotide under certain conditions, such as stringent conditions. For example, stringent conditions may include 400 mM NaCl, 40 mM PIPES at pH 6.4, and 1 mM EDTA at 50 or 70°C for 12–16 hours. In terms of meeting the above requirements regarding their hybridization ability, a "complementary" sequence may also include base pairs formed entirely from non-Watson-Crick base pairs and / or from non-natural and modified nucleotides. Such non-Watson-Crick base pairs include, but are not limited to, G:U swing base pairings or Hoogstein base pairs.
[0062] A polynucleotide that is “at least partially complementary,” “fully complementary,” or “substantially complementary” to messenger RNA (mRNA) refers to a polynucleotide that is substantially complementary to a continuous portion of the mRNA of interest. For example, a polynucleotide is at least partially complementary to PCSK9 mRNA if its sequence is substantially complementary to an uninterrupted portion of the mRNA encoding PCSK9. The terms “complementary,” “fully complementary,” “fully complementary,” and “substantially complementary” can be used relative to base pairing between the sense and antisense strands of the siRNA, or between the antisense strand of the siRNA reagent and the target sequence.
[0063] "Perfect complementarity" means that in order to maintain the overall double-stranded character of the molecule, the sense strand only needs to be complementary to the antisense strand to a certain extent. In other words, although perfect complementarity is usually required, in some cases, especially in the antisense strand, there may be one or more mismatches (relative to the target mRNA), such as 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 or 1, but the sense and antisense strands can still maintain the overall double-stranded character of the molecule.
[0064] "shRNA" refers to short hairpin RNA. shRNA consists of two short inverted repeat sequences. The shRNA cloned into the shRNA expression vector comprises two short inverted repeat sequences separated by a stem-loop sequence, forming a hairpin structure controlled by the polIII promoter. Subsequently, 5-6 T molecules are added as a transcription terminator for RNA polymerase III.
[0065] Nucleosides are compounds composed of purine or pyrimidine bases and ribose or deoxyribose, while nucleotides are compounds composed of purine or pyrimidine bases, ribose or deoxyribose, and phosphate. A "base" is the basic building block for the synthesis of nucleosides, nucleotides, and nucleic acids. Its constituent elements include nitrogen, hence it is also called a "nitrogenous base." In this article, unless otherwise specified, the capital letters A, U, T, G, and C represent the base composition of nucleotides, namely adenine, uracil, thymine, guanine, and cytosine, respectively.
[0066] The term "modification" of nucleotides as used herein includes, but is not limited to, methoxy modification, fluorination modification, thiophosphate linkage, or conventional protecting group protection. For example, a fluorinated nucleotide refers to a nucleotide in which the hydroxyl group at the 2' position of the ribosome is replaced by fluorine, and a methoxy modified nucleotide refers to a nucleotide in which the 2'-hydroxyl group of the ribosome is replaced by a methoxy group.
[0067] In this document, "modified nucleotides" include, but are not limited to, nucleotides modified with 2'-O-methyl, nucleotides modified with 2'-fluorine, nucleotides modified with 2'-deoxy-, inosine ribonucleotides, debased nucleotides, reverse abased deoxyribonucleotides, nucleotides containing a thiophosphate group, nucleotides modified with vinyl phosphate, locked nucleotides, nucleotides modified with 2'-amino, nucleotides modified with 2'-alkyl, morpholinonucleotides, aminophosphates, non-natural bases containing nucleotides, and terminal nucleotides linked to cholesterol derivatives or dodecanoic acid diecamide groups, deoxyribonucleotides, or those protected by conventional protecting groups. For example, a nucleotide modified with 2'-fluorine refers to a nucleotide in which the hydroxyl group at the 2' position of the ribosyl group is replaced by fluorine. A nucleotide modified with 2'-deoxy- refers to a nucleotide in which the 2'-hydroxyl group of the ribosyl group is replaced by a methoxy group.
[0068] As used herein, the term "terminal modification" refers to modifications made to the 5' and / or 3' ends of the positive strand of an siRNA molecule, such as coupling capping modifications or structures. Exemplary positive strand terminal modifications include, but are not limited to, inverted abase-free deoxyribonucleotides (IBs) and STMs.
[0069] Depending on its location / linking method within the siRNA, IB can include the following two structures (used for the 5' end and 3' end of the nucleic acid strand, respectively):
[0070] IB is well known in the art, see, for example, F. Czauderna, Nucleic Acids Res., 2003, 31(11), 2705-16 and PCT publications WO2016011123 and WO2019051402.
[0071] The structure of an unmodified STM is ; STM can be modified, for example Rs is selected from hydrogen, isopropyl or cyclohexyl; STM is well known in the field, see, for example, PCT Publication No. WO2024002006.
[0072] "Ligand moiety" refers to the chemical part conjugated to siRNA that can alter the distribution, targeting, or lifespan of the siRNA. In a preferred embodiment, such a ligand provides enhanced affinity for selected targets (e.g., molecules, cells or cell types), compartments (e.g., cell or organ compartments, tissues, organs, or regions of the body) compared to siRNAs, for example, those without such a ligand.
[0073] "Reactive phosphorus group" refers to a phosphorus-containing group contained in a nucleotide unit or nucleotide analog unit that can react with a hydroxyl or amino group contained in another molecule, particularly in another nucleotide unit or another nucleotide analog, via a nucleophilic attack reaction. Typically, such a reaction produces an ester-type nucleoside bond linking the first nucleotide unit or the first nucleotide analog unit to the second nucleotide unit or the second nucleotide analog unit. The reactive phosphorus group can be selected from phosphorous amides, H-phosphonates, alkyl-phosphonates, phosphate esters, or phosphate ester analogs, including but not limited to: native phosphate esters, thiophosphate esters, dithiophosphate esters, boron phosphate esters, boron thiophosphate esters, phosphonates, halogen-substituted phosphonates and phosphate esters, aminophosphate esters, phosphate diesters, phosphate triesters, thiophosphate diesters, thiophosphate triesters, diphosphate esters, and triphosphate esters, preferably -P(OCH2CH2CN)(N(iPr)2).
[0074] A "protecting group" is any atom or group of atoms added to a molecule to prevent existing groups in the molecule from undergoing undesirable chemical reactions. A protecting group can be an unstable chemical motif known in the art, used to protect reactive groups, such as hydroxyl, amino, and thiol groups, from unwanted or untimely reactions during chemical synthesis. Protecting groups are typically used selectively and / or orthogonally to protect sites during reactions at other reactive sites, and can then be removed to leave unprotected groups intact or usable for further reactions.
[0075] A non-limiting list of protecting groups includes benzyl; substituted benzyl; alkyl carbonyl and alkoxy carbonyl (e.g., tert-butoxycarbonyl (BOC), acetyl, or isobutyryl); arylalkyl carbonyl and arylalkoxy carbonyl (e.g., benzyloxycarbonyl); substituted methyl ether (e.g., methoxymethyl ether); substituted diethyl ether; substituted benzyl ether; tetrahydropyranyl ether; silyl (e.g., trimethylsilyl, triethylsilyl, triisopropylsilyl, tert-butyldimethylsilyl, tri-isopropylsilyloxymethyl, [2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy]methyl) alkyl or tert-butyldiphenylsilyl); esters (e.g., benzoates); carbonates (e.g., methoxymethyl carbonate); sulfonates (e.g., toluenesulfonate or methanesulfonate); noncyclic ketals (e.g., dimethyl acetal); cyclic ketals (e.g., 1,3-dioxane, 1,3-dioxolane, and those described herein); noncyclic acetals; cyclic acetals (e.g., those described herein); noncyclic hemiacetals; cyclic hemiacetals; cyclic dithioketals (e.g., 1,3-dithiane or 1,3-dithiopentane); orthoesters (e.g., those described herein); and triarylmethyl groups (e.g., tert-butyldiphenylsilyl groups). For example, triphenylmethyl; monomethoxytriphenylmethyl (MMTr); 4,4′-dimethoxytriphenylmethyl (DMTr or DMT); 4,4′,4″-trimethoxytriphenylmethyl (TMTr); and those described herein).

[0079] This invention includes tautomers, which are functional group isomers resulting from the rapid movement of an atom in a molecule to two positions. A compound exists in different tautomer forms, and a compound is not limited to any particular tautomer, but is intended to encompass all tautomer forms.
[0080] The compounds of this invention may include one or more asymmetric centers and therefore may exist in a variety of stereoisomeric forms, such as enantiomers and / or diastereomers. For example, the compounds of this invention may be individual enantiomers, diastereomers, or geometric isomers (e.g., cis and trans isomers), or may be in the form of mixtures of stereoisomers, including racemic mixtures and mixtures rich in one or more stereoisomers. This invention contemplates all such compounds, including cis and trans isomers, (-)- and (+)-enantiomers, (R)- and (S)-enantiomers, diastereomers, (D)- isomers, (L)- isomers, and their racemic mixtures and other mixtures, such as mixtures enriched with enantiomers or diastereomers, all of which are within the scope of this invention.
