The present application is in the field of medicinal chemistry, and specifically relates to methods for preparing drug-linker conjugates or salts thereof, as well as related intermediates or salts thereof. [Background technology]

[0002] Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are conjugates of antibodies and small molecule drugs, which combine the tumor targeting effect of antibodies with the activity of bioactive molecules to become biological missiles with highly promising therapeutic effects and safety advantages. The antibody induces the ADC to bind to the target cells / tissues, and then the small molecule drug is released into the cells / tissues through the action of specific enzymes to treat the disease. Among them, the drug-linker conjugate (including the cytotoxic payload and linker) plays a very important role in the preparation of ADCs. Therefore, the development of a simple, efficient, low-cost, and large-scale synthesis-friendly drug-linker conjugate synthesis method is of great importance for the development and use of ADC drugs.

The light chain amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO: 2) of 2E3-02 was optimized through codon optimization and gene synthesis (Sangon Biotech (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.), then constructed into PTT5 vector, and named PPT5-02-CL. The anti-B7H3 antibody expression plasmids PTT5-02-CH / PTT5-02-CL were co-transfected into HEK293F cells (ATCC) using PEI max reagent and expressed for 7 days in a shaker at 37°C and 5% CO2, and the supernatant was collected and purified with ProA magnetic beads to obtain the anti-B7H3 antibody 2E3-02 (heavy chain sequence is SEQ ID NO: 1, light chain sequence is SEQ ID NO: 2).

[0378] Example 19 Preparation of ADC 25 ml of 2E3-02 antibody (anti-B7H3 antibody, concentration: 28.5 mg / ml, 20 mM acetate buffer) was taken, and 25 ml of 20 mM acetate buffer was added to dilute it. Next, 1 ml of an aqueous solution containing 0.25 M EDTA was added and mixed well. The pH of the sample was adjusted to 7.6 with a 0.5 M aqueous solution of disodium hydrogen phosphate, and then a 20 mM TCEP (tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine hydrochloride) solution was added in an amount 4.5 times the antibody equivalent, mixed well, and reacted at room temperature for 90 minutes. Finally, Ia dissolved in DMSO in an amount 10 times the antibody equivalent was added, mixed well, and then reacted at room temperature for 2 hours. After the reaction was completed, the sample was replaced with a 10 mM histidine buffer solution at pH 5.5 using a 30 KDa ultrafiltration tube to remove low molecular weight substances, and finally the sample was concentrated to obtain a solution containing an anti-B7H3 antibody ADC composition (ADC-01). The DAR value measured by mass spectrometry was 7.98.

[0379] [ka]

[0380] Here, Ab is the B7H3 antibody 2E3-02.

[0381] The method for measuring the DAR value is as follows: Chromatography conditions: Chromatography column: PLRP-S, 2.1*50mm, 5μm; Mobile phase A: 0.1% FA / H2O, Mobile phase B: 0.1% FA / ACN Column temperature: 30°C, sample chamber temperature: 8°C, flow rate: 0.6 ml / min, injection volume: 2 μl

[0382] [Table 1-7]

[0383] Sample treatment: 50 μg of ADC-01 sample was taken, 2 μl of 1 M DTT was added, and ultrapure water was added up to 50 μl to dilute to a concentration of approximately 1.0 mg / ml, mixed well, and reduced at room temperature for 30 minutes. LC / MS model: Agilent 1290-6545XT Q-TOF. Mass spectrometry conditions: Gas temp: 320℃, Drying Gas: Nebulizer: 35 psi; Sheath Gas Temp: 350℃; Sheath Gas Flow: 11 l / min; m / z 500~3000.

[0385] [Table 1-8]

[0386] In the table, mAb represents unbound antibody, LC represents antibody light chain, HC represents antibody heavy chain, DAR1 represents a complex containing a light chain or heavy chain bound to one toxin molecule, DAR2 represents a complex containing a light chain or heavy chain bound to two toxin molecules, and DAR3 represents a complex containing a light chain or heavy chain bound to three toxin molecules, where the theoretical molecular weight of the monoclonal antibody was calculated based on the G0F glycoform. In the following, mAb, LC, HC, DAR1, DAR2, and DAR3 are as above.

[0387] The light chain of the 2E3-02 antibody bound to 0-1 toxin molecule (LC, DAR1 ratios were 1.0% and 99.0%, respectively) and the heavy chain bound to 0-3 toxin molecules (mAb, DAR1, DAR2, and DAR3 ratios were 0%, 0%, 0%, and 100%, respectively) were measured, and the antibody-drug binding ratio (DAR value) of ADC-01 was calculated to be 7.98. Based on the distribution of 0-1 toxin molecule bound to the light chain and 0-3 toxin molecule bound to the heavy chain, it was inferred that n may be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8.
