Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of organic compound synthesis and pharmaceutical application technology, and in particular to a HDAC10-targeting compound, its preparation method and application. Background Technology
[0002] Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are overexpressed in a variety of cancers and are closely associated with high tumor invasiveness and poor prognosis, thus making them an important target for cancer therapy (see: Falkenberg K J. et al., Nat. Rev.Drug Discov. 2014, 13(9): 673-91; Ho TC S. et al., J. Med. Chem. 2020, 63(21): 12460-84.). Currently, several HDAC inhibitors have been approved by drug regulatory authorities in various countries for the treatment of hematologic malignancies such as peripheral T-cell lymphoma and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, and a large number of HDAC inhibitors are being used in clinical trials (see: Cao Y. et al., Pharmacol Ther. 2025, 265: 108749; Shah RR, Drug Saf.2019, 42(2): 235-45, Quinn DI. et al., Invest. New Drugs. 2021, 39(3): 812-20.). However, HDAC inhibitors currently used in clinical practice generally have serious toxic side effects, mainly due to their poor selectivity for HDAC family members. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop HDAC inhibitors and degrading agents with high subtype selectivity.
[0003] HDAC10 belongs to the Class IIb HDAC subfamily. Similar to other HDAC isotypes, HDAC10 also has multiple functions, including epigenetic regulation and post-translational modification (see: Lambona C. et al., Curr Opin StructBiol. 2023, 82: 102668.). However, unlike other HDAC isotypes, HDAC10 is also a polyamine deacetylase. Under conditions of exogenous polyamine restriction or difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) inhibition of endogenous polyamine synthesis, HDAC10 can catalyze the conversion of N8-acetylsemine to spermine to regulate intracellular polyamine levels, thereby using N8-acetylsemine as a polyamine alternative source to maintain tumor growth. Correspondingly, knocking out or inhibiting HDAC10 can inhibit tumor cell growth by interfering with intracellular polyamine homeostasis (see: Hai Y. et al., Nat. Commun. 2017, 8: 15368.). A growing body of research confirms that autophagy helps tumor cells cope with environmental stresses such as hypoxia, nutrient deprivation, and drug therapy. It plays a crucial role in tumor maintenance and progression and is closely related to the development of tumor drug resistance. Therefore, targeting and inhibiting autophagy has become an important direction in the field of tumor therapy. For example, autophagy inhibitors can effectively overcome the adaptive resistance of tumor cells to RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway inhibitors (see: Jain V. et al., Trends Pharmacol. Sci. 2023, 44(5):290-302.). It is worth noting that HDAC10 is a novel autophagy intervention target; therefore, HDAC10 inhibitors are expected to inhibit autophagy and enhance the efficacy of RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway inhibitors and other anticancer drugs (see: Oehme I. et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci US A. 2013, 110(28): E2592-601.). With the continuous discovery of its physiological and pathological functions, HDAC10 is gradually being regarded as a potential therapeutic target for tumors and a variety of non-tumor diseases.
[0004] In recent years, targeted protein degradation technology has provided new research ideas for solving problems that traditional small molecule inhibitors cannot solve. Targeted protein degradation chimeras (PROTACs) are heterobifunctional molecules that bind to both target protein ligands and E3 ubiquitin ligase ligands via linkers (see: Békés M. et al., Nat. Rev. Drug Discov. 2022, 21(3):181-200.). Unlike classical inhibitors that block protein function by occupying the protein's active pocket, degradative agents can induce the overall degradation of the target protein through the ubiquitin-proteasome system, thereby eliminating its enzyme activity dependence and protein scaffold function, while also overcoming drug resistance (see: Nalawansha D A. et al., Cell Chem Biol. 2020, 27(8):998-1014.). Existing studies have developed various selective degraders targeting HDAC6, HDAC8, and other subtypes, demonstrating the degradability of HDAC family proteins. This strategy also suggests that it may be an important direction for overcoming the insufficient selectivity and significant toxicity of traditional HDAC inhibitors (see: Cao Z. et al., ACS Chem Biol. 2021, 16(12), 2746–2751; Xiao Y. et al., Cell Chem Biol. 2023, 30(11), 1421–1435.e12.). Therefore, the development of HDAC10-targeting degraders will not only help to elucidate the functions of HDAC10 in polyamine metabolism, autophagy regulation, and tumor drug resistance, but may also provide novel therapeutic strategies for the intervention of HDAC10-related diseases.
[0005] However, few HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitors have been reported so far. DKFZ-728 is a highly active and selective HDAC10 inhibitor, but its druggability is not ideal. Existing HDAC10 degraders are also scarce, and most act on both HDAC6 and HDAC10 simultaneously; further development is needed for degraders targeting a single HDAC10 subtype. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop novel, druggable HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitors and degraders. Summary of the Invention

[0060] 3. Applications of compounds targeting HDAC10
[0061] HDAC10-targeting compounds are used as selective inhibitors or degraders of HDAC10 subtypes in the preparation of drugs for the prevention or treatment of diseases associated with abnormal HDAC10 expression or activity.
[0062] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the disease associated with abnormal HDAC10 expression or activity is cancer, inflammatory disease, or autoimmune disease.
[0063] Preferably, the cancer is colorectal cancer, bladder cancer, melanoma, cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, lung cancer, liver cancer, kidney cancer, pancreatic cancer, neuroblastoma, lymphoma, or leukemia.
[0064] Preferably, the inflammatory disease or autoimmune disease is inflammatory bowel disease, temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis, or synovial inflammatory disease.
[0065] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:
[0066] To address the issues of limited existing HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitors, insufficient drug-likeness of reported representative HDAC10 inhibitors, and a relative lack of development of selective HDAC10 degrading agents, this invention provides a series of novel isohydroxamic acid-based HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitors and degrading agents, enriching the structural types of HDAC10-targeting drugs and providing new candidate compounds and technical solutions for the intervention and treatment of HDAC10-related diseases.
[0067] The compounds M1-M29 of this invention, as HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitors, possess novel structures, high activity, and high selectivity for HDAC10 inhibition. Compared with the existing inhibitor DKFZ-728, the inhibitors of this invention exhibit comparable HDAC10 inhibitory activity.
[0068] The HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitor described in this invention shows promising application potential at the cellular level. In vitro evaluation of its antitumor cell proliferation activity indicates that the representative compound M1, when used alone, exhibits low direct cytotoxicity to tumor cells. However, when combined with an inhibitor of the RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway, it significantly enhances the inhibitory effect of the relevant inhibitor on HCT116 colon cancer cells. This result demonstrates that the HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitor described in this invention can not only be used as an HDAC10-targeting inhibitor but also as a sensitizer in combination therapy to improve the antitumor efficacy of RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway inhibitors.
[0069] The HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitor described in this invention also exhibits good preliminary safety and drug-likeness. Normal hepatocyte toxicity evaluation results showed that the representative compound M1 had low toxicity to normal hepatocytes; mouse liver microsomal stability evaluation results showed that M1 had good metabolic stability, significantly better than the previously reported representative compound DKFZ-728, indicating that the HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitor obtained through structural optimization in this invention has the potential to be further developed into a drug candidate.
[0070] Furthermore, this invention designs and synthesizes a series of HDAC10-targeting degraders (compounds N1-N14) by changing the length and properties of the linkers in the compounds, and successfully screens effective HDAC10-targeting degraders through WB (Western Blot) experiments.
[0071] In summary, this invention provides two classes of compounds targeting HDAC10: HDAC10 subtype-selective inhibitors and HDAC10 subtype-selective degraders. The inhibitor portion exhibits definite HDAC10 enzyme activity inhibition, good subtype selectivity, low normocytotoxicity, and good metabolic stability, and can enhance the antitumor activity of RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway inhibitors. The degrader portion provides a novel strategy for intervening in HDAC10 function by degrading the HDAC10 protein. Therefore, this invention has significant application value for developing drugs to treat diseases related to abnormal HDAC10 expression or activity. Attached Figure Description

Under ice bath conditions, add EDCI (1.18 g, 6.14 mmol), HOBt (0.83 g, 6.14 mmol), and DIPEA (1.06 g, 8.18 mmol) sequentially. After stirring and activating for 30 min, add 1-Boc-4-aminopiperidine (0.98 g, 4.91 mmol). Remove from ice bath, allow to warm naturally to room temperature, and stir. After the starting material spot disappears under TLC monitoring, quench the reaction by pouring the reaction solution into 100 mL of water. Extract the aqueous phase three times with 60 mL of ethyl acetate. Combine the organic phases and wash twice with 80 mL of saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and once with 80 mL of saturated brine. Dry the product over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filter, and concentrate to obtain the crude product.

[0118] Experimental Example 1. Evaluation of the in vitro HDAC inhibitory activity and subtype selectivity of the target compound's inhibitor.
[0119] This invention utilizes fluorescence analysis to determine the inhibitory activity of the target compound for HDAC4, HDAC6, HDAC8, HDAC10, and HDAC11.
[0120] The experimental results (Table 1) show that all the inhibitors of the present invention have an inhibition rate of more than 50% against HDAC10 at a concentration of 1 μM, but the inhibition rates against HDAC4, HDAC6, HDAC8 and HDAC11 are less than 20%. This preliminarily proves that the inhibitors of the present invention have good selective inhibitory activity against HDAC10 subtypes.

[0122]
[0123] Next, the in vitro inhibitory activity of the compound M1, which exhibited superior activity, against HDAC4, HDAC6, HDAC8, and HDAC11 was determined (Table 2). The results showed that at a concentration of 10 μM, M1 inhibited HDAC4, HDAC6, HDAC8, and HDAC11 by less than 40%, confirming that M1 has excellent selectivity for the HDAC10 isotype.
[0124] Table 2. Results of in vitro HDAC inhibition rate tests for each HDAC isoform of compound M1
[0125]
[0126] Subsequently, this invention employed a TR-FRET experiment with DKFZ-728 as a control compound to more accurately determine the HDAC10 inhibitory activity of the representative compound M1, and the IC50 of compound M1 was determined. 50 The value (7.2 ± 0.5 nM) is comparable to that of DKFZ-728 (9.0 ± 2.3 nM) (Table 3), indicating that compound M1 has excellent HDAC10 inhibitory activity.

[0129] Experimental Example 2. In vitro antitumor cell proliferation activity and normal cytotoxicity of compound M1
[0130] This invention employs the CCK-8 method to conduct a series of experiments on compound M1, including its in vitro antitumor cell proliferation activity and normal cell toxicity.
[0131] HCT116 colon cancer cells possess a mutant G13D and a wild-type KRAS gene. Since KRAS is located upstream of the RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway, HCT116 is a RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway-dependent tumor cell and can be used to evaluate the antitumor activity of RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway inhibitors alone and in combination with HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitors.
[0132] In vitro experimental results showed that the HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitor M1 did not inhibit the proliferation of HCT116 colon cancer cells by more than 50% at concentrations of 3.33 μM and 6.67 μM (Table 4), indicating that the HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitor alone has low cytotoxicity.
[0133] Table 4. In vitro anti-cancer cell proliferation activity of compound M1
[0134]
[0135] To investigate the anticancer potential of combining an HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitor with a RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway inhibitor, this invention evaluated the inhibitory effects of the MEK inhibitor trametinib alone and in combination with the HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitor M1 on HCT116 cells, using the traditional autophagy inhibitor chloroquine as a control. Specifically, the inhibitory rates of trametinib at concentrations of 4.6 nM and 13.7 nM, as well as the IC50 of trametinib at these concentrations, were tested. 50 As shown in Table 5, the results indicate that both the HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitor M1 and the traditional autophagy inhibitor chloroquine significantly reduced the IC50 of Trametinib against HCT116. 50 The inhibitor M1 of this invention, when used in combination with Trametinib, showed superior efficacy.

[0137]
[0138] Subsequently, this invention further evaluated the antitumor activity of the ERK inhibitor Ulixertinib alone and in combination with M1 or chloroquine; specifically, the inhibition rate of Ulixertinib at concentrations of 0.12 μM and 1.11 μM, as well as the IC50 of Ulixertinib in single and combined use, were tested. 50 As shown in Table 6, both the HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitor M1 and the traditional autophagy inhibitor chloroquine significantly enhanced the inhibitory activity of Ulixertinib against HCT116 cells. The combination of the inhibitor M1 and Ulixertinib in this invention showed even better results.

[0141] As the core organ for drug metabolism, the liver's toxicity assessment is a key focus in drug safety studies. This study used L02 normal hepatocytes to evaluate the hepatotoxicity of compound M1. As shown in Table 7, M1 inhibited L02 cells by 8% and 11% at concentrations of 3.33 μM and 30 μM, respectively, indicating very low toxicity to normal hepatocytes. This preliminarily demonstrates the safety of HDAC10 subtype selective inhibitors.

[0144] Experimental Example 3. In vitro stability experiment of compound M1 in mouse liver microsomes
[0145] Using diclofenac, whose metabolic pathway is well-defined, as a reference control, this invention preliminarily evaluated the in vitro liver microsomal stability of compound M1. The results are shown in Table 8. The half-life of compound M1 in mouse liver microsomes was 410.2 min, significantly higher than the reported half-life of DKFZ-728 in mouse liver microsomes (74 min) (see: Steimbach R R. etal., J Am Chem Soc. 2022, 144(41): 18861-75.). This indicates that obtaining the target compound M1 using a conformational constraint strategy yields better druggability than the lead compound DKFZ-728.

[0148] Experimental Example 4. Cellular HDAC10 Degradation Activity of the Degrading Agent in the Target Compound
[0149] This invention uses Western blotting (WB) to evaluate the degradation activity of the synthesized HDAC10-targeting degrader. Representative compounds were used to stimulate HCT116 cells at a concentration of 5 μM for 48 h, samples were collected, proteins were extracted, and WB experiments were performed. Experimental results ( Figure 1 The results showed that, compared with the blank control group, the selected compounds were able to reduce the protein level of HDAC10 to varying degrees, indicating that the degrading agents of the present invention have a good degradation effect on HDAC10 protein.
