Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biomedical technology and relates to a novel combination drug intervention strategy for double-hit lymphoma, specifically the application of a dual-active-component drug in the preparation of drugs for anti-double-hit lymphoma. Background Technology

[0002] Double-hit lymphoma (DHL) is a highly aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, defined as a high-grade B-cell lymphoma with MYC and BCL2 and / or BCL6 rearrangements. It has an extremely poor clinical prognosis and is difficult to cure with conventional chemotherapy. This subtype accounts for approximately 5%-10% of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas, and is more common in middle-aged and elderly patients. Clinically, it often presents with rapid onset, rapid progression, significantly elevated LDH levels, high bone marrow and central nervous system involvement, and a high International Prognostic Index (IPI) risk.

[0003] For these patients, the traditional standard treatment regimen R-CHOP (rituximab + cyclophosphamide + doxorubicin + vincristine + prednisone) for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is ineffective, with a high relapse rate and significantly lower long-term survival than ordinary DLBCL. Even with intensive chemotherapy or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, the prognosis remains poor. Therefore, identifying novel molecular targets and biomarkers for DHL relapse, drug resistance, and disease progression, and establishing novel targeted therapies and intervention strategies, is of great significance for improving the clinical efficacy and prognosis of DHL patients. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this invention is to provide a new combination drug intervention strategy for double-hit lymphoma, specifically the application of a dual-active component drug in the preparation of a drug for double-hit lymphoma.

[0005] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides the application of a dual-active-component drug in the preparation of a drug for treating double-hit lymphoma, wherein the active ingredient in the dual-active-component drug is composed of a first active component and a second active component;

[0007] The first active ingredient is selected from homoharringtonine or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt;

[0008] The second active ingredient is selected from Veneclare or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0009] Venetoclax is a BCL-2 inhibitor that competitively binds to and releases pro-apoptotic proteins (such as BIM) that are "detained" by BCL-2, thereby initiating cytochrome c release and the caspase cascade, restoring the apoptosis program in cancer cells. Although venetoclax has shown some efficacy in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), its clinical application often suffers from primary or secondary resistance due to compensatory upregulation of MCL-1, greatly limiting the efficacy of monotherapy. Homoharringtonine (HHT) is a ribosome function inhibitor that directly binds to the peptidyl transfer site (PTC) of the ribosome to inhibit protein translation and rapidly downregulate short-cycle oncogenic proteins such as MCL-1 and c-MYC, thereby exerting an anti-tumor effect.

[0010] This invention develops a novel drug strategy for improving or treating double-hit lymphoma (DHL), specifically by combining homoharringtonine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof with veneclade or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof to intervene in the progression of DHL. This invention demonstrates that homoharringtonine combined with veneclade can significantly inhibit the proliferation of DHL cell lines and induce apoptosis in DHL cell lines; using a CDX mouse model, it is demonstrated that homoharringtonine combined with veneclade can inhibit the tumorigenesis process of DHL in mice.

[0011] This invention reveals that the combined use of the two active components not only reduces the dosage of each drug and improves drug safety, but also significantly improves or treats double-hit lymphoma (DHL) compared to using a single active component, exhibiting a synergistic effect. Specifically, homoharringtonine combined with veneclade downregulates MCL-1 molecules in DHL cell lines, thereby reversing DHL cell resistance to veneclade and closing the escape route for cancer cells. This invention provides an effective drug combination strategy for the improvement or treatment of double-hit lymphoma (DHL), which is of great significance.

[0012] Preferably, the dual-active-component drug further contains pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.

[0013] Preferably, the dual-active-component drug of the present invention can be administered alone or in combination with excipients to form an appropriate dosage form for administration. The pharmaceutically acceptable excipients include any one or a combination of at least two of the following: carrier, diluent, excipient, filler, binder, wetting agent, disintegrant, emulsifier, solubilizer, osmotic pressure regulator, surfactant, coating material, colorant, pH adjuster, antioxidant, antibacterial agent or buffer.

[0014] Preferably, the dual-active-component drug is a single compound preparation or a combination of two separate preparations.

[0015] Preferably, the dual-active-component drug is a combination of two separate formulations, which are applied simultaneously or sequentially.

[0016] Preferably, the preparation is any pharmaceutically acceptable dosage form, such as tablets, powders, suspensions, granules, capsules, solutions, enemas, emulsions, etc.

[0017] In this invention, the first active component of the dual-active component drug inhibits the abnormally high expression of C-myc protein and BCL-2 protein in double-hit lymphoma cells.

[0018] In this invention, the first active component of the dual-active-component drug downregulates the MCL-1 molecule level in double-hit lymphoma cells, reversing the drug resistance of double-hit lymphoma cells to the second active component.

[0019] In a second aspect, the present invention provides the application of a dual-active-component drug in the preparation of a dual-hit lymphoma cell proliferation inhibitor, wherein the active ingredient in the dual-active-component drug is composed of a first active component and a second active component.

[0020] The first active ingredient is selected from homoharringtonine or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt;

[0021] The second active ingredient is selected from Veneclare or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0022] Preferably, the double-hit lymphoma cells include TMD8 cells and / or Toledo cells.

[0023] According to the research results of this invention, the dual-active-component drug has a significant inhibitory effect on the proliferation of double-hit lymphoma cells. Therefore, this result indicates that the dual-active-component drug can be used as an in vitro experimental drug in the field of scientific research, rather than just for disease treatment. For example, it can be used to study the growth of double-hit lymphoma cells and other cellular metabolic mechanisms or behaviors, and to screen drugs for the prevention or treatment of double-hit lymphoma.

[0024] Thirdly, the present invention provides the application of a dual-active-component drug in the preparation of a double-hit lymphoma cell apoptosis promoter, wherein the active ingredient in the dual-active-component drug is composed of a first active component and a second active component.

[0025] The first active ingredient is selected from homoharringtonine or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt;

[0026] The second active ingredient is selected from Veneclare or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0027] Preferably, the double-hit lymphoma cells include TMD8 cells and / or Toledo cells.

[0028] According to the research results of this invention, the dual-active-component drug has a significant effect on promoting apoptosis of double-hit lymphoma cells. Therefore, this result indicates that the dual-active-component drug can be used as an in vitro experimental drug in the field of scientific research, rather than just for disease treatment. For example, it can be used to study the growth and other cellular metabolic mechanisms or behaviors of double-hit lymphoma cells, and to screen drugs for the prevention or treatment of double-hit lymphoma.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0030] This invention develops a novel drug strategy for improving or treating double-hit lymphoma (DHL), specifically by combining homoharringtonine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof with veneclade or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof to intervene in the progression of DHL. This invention demonstrates that homoharringtonine combined with veneclade can significantly inhibit the proliferation of DHL cell lines and induce apoptosis in DHL cell lines; using a CDX mouse model, it is demonstrated that homoharringtonine combined with veneclade can inhibit the tumorigenesis process of DHL in mice.

[0031] This invention reveals that the combined use of the two active components not only reduces the dosage of each drug and improves drug safety, but also significantly improves or treats double-hit lymphoma (DHL) compared to using a single active component, exhibiting a synergistic effect. Specifically, homoharringtonine combined with veneclade downregulates MCL-1 molecules in DHL cell lines, thereby reversing DHL cell resistance to veneclade and closing the escape route for cancer cells. This invention provides an effective drug combination strategy for the improvement or treatment of double-hit lymphoma (DHL), which is of great significance. Attached Figure Description

Cells were then collected by centrifugation at 300 g for 5 min at 4°C, washed once with PBS, and lysed using RIPA (Solarbio) lysis buffer. The RIPA lysis buffer contained pre-added protease inhibitor (Solarbio), phosphatase inhibitor (Solarbio), and PMSF (Beyotime) to protect the target protein and its phosphorylation modification.

The RIPA lysis buffer (Solarbio) was pre-added with protease inhibitor (Solarbio), phosphatase inhibitor (Solarbio), and PMSF (Beyotime) to protect the target protein and its phosphorylation modification.

[0096] The protein was disrupted and lysed using an ice-water bath with sonication at 25% intensity for 5 seconds, followed by 4-second intervals, for a total of ten cycles. After sonication, the sample was centrifuged at 12,000 rpm at 4°C for 10 minutes. The supernatant was carefully transferred to a clean EP tube, and the sample was subjected to BCA protein concentration determination using a BCA assay kit (Yeason). After the determination, the corresponding volume of 5×SDS was added, mixed well, and boiled for 10 minutes. Western blot analysis was then performed to detect MCL-1 protein.
