Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001] [Technical field] The present invention is in the field of drug synthesis, specifically, it relates to fully symmetrical biphenyl derivatives and their preparation and use. [Technical background] The immune system plays a crucial role in controlling and eliminating diseases such as cancer. However, tumor cells often develop strategies to evade or suppress the immune system's surveillance and promote their malignant growth. Here, one important mechanism is to alter the expression of costimulatory and co-inhibitory immune checkpoint molecules on immune cells. Blocking the signaling pathway of immune checkpoint molecules, such as PD1, has proven to be a very promising and effective therapeutic approach.

[0002] Programmed cell death molecule 1 (PD-1), also known as CD279, is a receptor molecule expressed on the surface of activated T cells, natural killer T cells, B cells and macrophages. Its structure contains one extracellular immunoglobulin variable region-like domain, one transmembrane domain and one intracellular domain, the latter of which contains two phosphorylation sites, located in an immunoreceptor tyrosine kinase-based inhibitory domain and an immunoreceptor tyrosine kinase-based transforming domain, suggesting that PD1 can negatively regulate the T cell receptor-mediated signaling pathway.

[0003] PD1 has two ligands, PD-L1 and PDL2, which have different expression spectra. PDL1 protein is elevated in macrophages and dendritic cells after treatment with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and also after T cells and B cells are stimulated by the T cell receptor or B cell receptor signaling pathway. It is also highly expressed in most tumor cells, and its expression is elevated after interferon (IFN) gamma stimulation. In fact, the expression status of tumor PDL1 is thought to correlate with prognosis in many tumor types. Conversely, PD-L2 expression is relatively concentrated and is mainly expressed in dendritic cells.

[0004] Contact between T cells expressing PD-1 and cells expressing its ligand inhibits their functional activities after antigen stimulation, such as cell proliferation, cytokine release, and cell division activity. Thus, the interaction of PD1 and its ligand functions as an inherent negative feedback regulatory mechanism to prevent people from overactivating T cells during infection, immune tolerance, or tumor development, thereby reducing autoimmune diseases and promoting autoimmune tolerance. Prolonged antigen stimulation, such as that occurring during tumors or long-term infection, can cause T cells to express high levels of PD-1, and yet become inactive or nonfunctional in response to these long-term antigens, which is called T cell exhaustion. B cells are also subject to the inhibitory effect of PD1 and its ligand and the associated dysfunction.

[0005] Evidence from preclinical animal studies has revealed that PD-1 and its ligands can negatively regulate immune responses. PD-1-deficient mice develop lupus-like acute proliferative glomerulonephritis and dilated cardiomyopathy. Blocking the PD-1 / PDL1 interaction with PDL1 antibodies has already shown to restore and enhance the function of T cell activation in many systems. PDL1 monoclonal antibodies are also beneficial for patients with advanced cancer. Several preclinical animal tumor models have also shown that blocking the PD-1 / PD-L1 signaling pathway with monoclonal antibodies can enhance immune responses, and generate immune responses against a range of tumors that are clearly different in terms of histology. Using a long-term LCMV infection model, it has been found that PD-1 / PD-L1 interaction has already suppressed the activation, amplification, and acquisition of effector cell function of virus-specific CD8 T cells. In addition to being able to enhance immune responses to long-term antigens, it has also been found that blocking the PD-1 / PDL1 pathway can enhance responses to vaccines, such as the response to therapeutic vaccines in a long-term infection environment.

[0006] As described above, if a compound that blocks the interaction between PD1 and PDL1 proteins can be developed in addition to existing monoclonal antibodies, it can be an effective therapeutic method for blocking the signal pathway mediated by PD-1 / PDL1, thereby enhancing or restoring the function of T cells. Therefore, compounds that target blocking the PD-1 / PD-L1 interaction are believed to have a very good therapeutic effect in the immunotherapy of many types of cancer and other immune-related diseases.

[0071] The English name for "stereoisomer" is stereoisomer, which refers to an isomer formed by the difference in the spatial arrangement of atoms in a molecule. It may be divided into two types, cis-trans isomers and enantiomers, or into two types, enantiomers and diastereomers. Stereoisomers formed by the rotation of a single bond are called conformational stereoisomers, and sometimes called rotamers. For example, stereoisomers formed by bond length, bond angle, double bonds or rings in the molecule are called configuration stereoisomers, which are further divided into two types. Here, isomers formed because the double bonds or single bonds of the ring carbon atoms cannot rotate freely are geometric isomers, also called cis-trans isomers, and are divided into two types of configurations, Z and E. For example, cis-2-butene and trans-2-butene are a pair of geometric isomers. Stereoisomers with different optical rotations formed due to the lack of antiaxial symmetry in the molecule are called optical isomers, and are divided into R and S configurations. The "stereoisomer" described in the present invention may be understood to include one or more of the enantiomers, configurational isomers, and conformational isomers, unless otherwise specified.

[0128] [Biological measurements and evaluation] 1. PD1-PDL1 HTRF binding activity test The effect of the compounds according to the embodiments of the present invention on PD-1 / PD-L1 protein interaction was measured by Cisbio's PD-1 / PD-L1 binding assay kit (#64ICP01PEG or 64ICP01PEH), and the specific experimental method is as follows: 1) Add diluted compounds, 4 μL of Tag1-PD-L1 protein, and 4 μL of Tag2-PD1 protein to a 384-well plate. 2) Incubate at room temperature for 15 minutes, and then add 5 μL of anti-Tag1-Eu3+ antibody and 5 μL of anti-Tag2-XL665 antibody. 3) After 2 hours of incubation at room temperature or overnight at 4°C, the readings were read on a Pelkin Elmer Envision. Readings were taken at 665 nm and 620 nm, respectively, and the ratio of the two was used as the reading for each well. 4) The readings from each well after compound treatment were compared to the readings from DMSO treated wells to give the percentage inhibition of the compound. 5) The IC of the compounds according to the present invention was calculated by analyzing the inhibition percentage at different compound concentrations by nonlinear regression. 50 The specific experimental results are shown in Table 1.

[0129] II. Jurkat reporter gene cell activity test Jurkat reporter gene cell activity test was used to measure the effect of the compounds according to the embodiments of the present invention on the interaction of PD-1 / PD-L1 protein expressed on the cell surface and the resulting effect on T cell function. In short, the reporter plasmid of NF-κB-luc and the plasmid of human PD-1 were transfected into Jurkat cells to establish a stable expression line that simultaneously and stably expresses PD-1 and NF-κB-luc reporter genes, and the surface expression level of PD-1 was identified by flow cytometry, and the OKT-3 and Raji cells were stimulated to identify the expression level of the reporter gene by the reaction of the reporter gene. In addition, human PD-L1 expression plasmid was transfected into Raji cells to obtain a cell line that stably expressed PD-L1. Then, Jurkat / NF-κB-luc / PD1 cells were co-cultured with Raji-PD-L1 cells and stimulated with OKT-3. Compounds were added, and the reporter gene response readings reflected the inhibitory effects of the compounds on PD-1 / PD-L1 interaction and enhancement of T cell activation signal pathway. The specific experimental method is as follows: 1) 30 μL of compound or antibody at different dilutions was added to a white 96-well plate (corning, 3610), and 10 μL of OKT3 (Biolegend, 317326) (final concentration of OKT3 was 1 μg / mL) was added. 2) Add 20 μL of Raji-PD-L1 cell suspension to each well, ensuring that each well contains 5 × 10 4 cells and incubated in an incubator for 20 minutes. 3) Add 20 μL of Jurkat / NF-κb-luc / PD-1 cell suspension to each well, ensuring that each well contains 5 × 10 4 The cells were mixed homogenously and Bright-glo (Promega, E2620) was measured 6 hours later. 4) The readings from each well after compound treatment were compared to the readings from DMSO-treated wells to obtain the fold activation of compound effect. 5) The EC of the compounds according to the present invention was determined by analyzing the activation fold at different compound concentrations using nonlinear regression. 50 The specific experimental results are shown in Table 1:

[0130] [Table 1]

[0131] The biological activity data of the compounds in the specific examples show that a series of compounds of the present invention have strong inhibitory effects on PD-1 / PD-L1 protein interaction, and this inhibitory effect can enhance or restore T cell activation at the cellular level. 3. Pharmacokinetic evaluation (evaluation of membrane permeability and intestinal absorption potential of candidate drugs using Caco-2 cell line) The Caco-2 cells used in this test are human colon cancer cells, and under appropriate culture conditions, Caco-2 cells can form differentiated monolayer cells with many characteristics, such as tight junctions, microvilli, and expression of brush border enzymes, similar to normal intestinal epithelium. The permeability of compounds in the Caco-2 cell model is closely related to their absorption in the human body, and the Caco-2 cell model has been widely applied to evaluate the intestinal permeability and spontaneous transport process of compounds. This test evaluated the permeability and efflux ratio of the compounds according to the examples of the present invention and the comparative compounds using the Caco-2 cell model. The specific method is as follows: 1) The Caco-2 cell culture medium was modified Eagle's medium (MEM) containing 10% inactivated fetal bovine serum and 1% non-essential amino acids. The cells were seeded on polycarbonate filters and cultured at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator.

[0132] 2) After seeding, the cells can be used for transport experiments when cultured for 21 to 28 days. The density of the cell monolayer is such that the apparent permeability coefficient (P app ) was characterized and verified. 3) In the experiment, the compounds were dissolved in DMSO to prepare 10 mM stock solutions, and the reference compounds for evaluating permeability in this test were metoprolol, atenolol and erythromycin, which were respectively high and low permeability positive compounds and positive substrates of P-gp. The apparent permeability coefficients measured by the reference compounds obtained according to this test method are as follows:

[0133] [Table 2]

[0134] Hanks' Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS, Invitrogen) containing 25 mM HEPES (pH 7.4) was used for dilution to obtain the working solution. The detection concentration of the test compound was 10 μM. This study was a bidirectional permeation experiment from the top membrane side to the substrate side (AB) and from the substrate side to the top membrane side (BA), which required incubation at 37°C for 90 min. After the incubation, the samples diluted with buffer were detected by LC-MS / MS. The concentration of the compound was quantified using a standard curve. 4) Apparent permeability coefficient P app Value(cm / s): P app = (VA / (Area × time)) × ([drug]accepter / (([drug]initial, donor) ×Dilution Factor) Here, "VA" refers to the volume of the receptor pore, "Area" refers to the surface area of ​​the membrane, and "time" is the total transport time in seconds.

[0135] 5) The apparent membrane permeability coefficient value P of the corresponding compound app and the outflow ratio ER=P app (BA) / P app (AB) was determined according to the above formula, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0136] [Table 3]

[0137] [Table 4]

[0138] The membrane permeability test data in Table 2 shows that the membrane permeability of the AB terminal of the compound according to the embodiment of the present invention is significantly improved by modifying the terminal linking groups on both sides of the compound, while the comparative compounds 2, 4, and 6 have similar symmetrical diacid structures, but all have very low AB and very low membrane permeability. Furthermore, the inventors have further found through in vivo pharmacokinetic experiments in mice that such compounds are hardly absorbed when directly administered orally, and can only be administered orally in the form of prodrugs (comparative compounds 1, 3, and 5), which are different in metabolic pathway from the compounds according to the embodiment of the present invention.
