Ligand-drug conjugates of exatecan analogs and medical uses thereof

Abstract

As used herein, the compounds of formula (I) or (VII): The present invention provides compounds having the formula (I) TIFF2025534324000304.tif65165, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, tautomers, isotopologues, stereoisomers, or prodrugs thereof, ligand-drug conjugates comprising residues of the compounds provided herein, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof, as well as methods for treating cancer. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) enable the combination of a monoclonal antibody or antibody fragment with a biologically active cytotoxin via a chemically stable linker, taking full advantage of the specificity of antibodies that bind to surface antigens on normal or tumor cells and the high efficiency of cytotoxins, while avoiding the low efficacy of antibodies and the toxic side effects of cytotoxins.

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] 1.Technical Field The present disclosure relates to ligand-drug conjugates of exatecan analogs having novel structures. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to exatecan analogs, ligand-drug conjugates of exatecan analogs, methods for preparing the same, and medical uses of the conjugates. [Background technology]

[0002] 2. Background technology Chemotherapy remains one of the most important anti-cancer therapies, along with surgery, radiation therapy, and targeted therapy. Although many types of highly efficient cytotoxins exist, the difference between tumor cells and normal cells is very small, which limits the widespread clinical application of these anti-cancer compounds due to toxic side effects. Antibody drugs have become the forefront of anti-tumor therapy due to the specificity of anti-tumor monoclonal antibodies against tumor cell surface antigens. However, when antibodies are used alone as anti-tumor drugs, their efficacy is often unsatisfactory.

[0003] Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) combine monoclonal antibodies or antibody fragments with biologically active cytotoxins via a chemically stable linker, taking full advantage of the specificity of antibodies that bind to surface antigens on normal or tumor cells and the high efficiency of cytotoxins, while avoiding the low efficacy of antibodies and the toxic side effects of cytotoxins. In other words, compared with conventional chemotherapy drugs, antibody-drug conjugates can precisely bind to tumor cells and reduce the impact on normal cells (Mullard A, (2013) Nature Reviews Drug Discovery, 12:329-332; DiJoseph JF, Armellino DC, (2004) Blood, 103:1807-1814).

[0004] In 2000, the first antibody-drug conjugate, Mylotarg (gemtuzumab ozogamicin, Wyeth Pharmaceuticals), was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (Drugs of the Future (2000) 25(7):686; U.S. Patent Nos. 4,970,198, 5,079,233, 5,585,089, 5,606,040, 5,693,762, 5,739,116, 5,767,285, 5,773,001).

[0005] In August 2011, ADCETRIS (brentuximab vedotin, Seattle Genetics Inc.) was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Fast Track for the treatment of Hodgkin's lymphoma and recurrent anaplastic large cell lymphoma (Nat. Biotechnol (2003) 21(7):778-784; WO2004010957; WO2005001038; U.S. Patent Nos. 7,090,843A and 7,659,241; WO2008025020). ADCETRIS® is a novel targeted ADC drug, which allows the drug to directly target CD30 on lymphoma cells, causing endocytosis and consequently inducing apoptosis of tumor cells. Both Mylotarg and Adcetris are targeted therapies for hematological tumors, whose histological structure is relatively simple compared to that of solid tumors. In February 2013, Kadcyla (ado-trastuzumab emtansine, T-DM1) was approved by the FDA for the treatment of patients with trastuzumab (trade name: Herceptin)-resistant and paclitaxel-resistant HER2-positive advanced or metastatic breast cancer (WO2005037992, U.S. Patent No. 8,088,387). Kadcyla is the first ADC drug approved by the FDA for the treatment of solid tumors. There are several types of cytotoxic small molecules used in antibody-drug conjugates, one of which is camptothecin derivatives, which exhibit antitumor effects by inhibiting topoisomerase I. Documents reporting the use of the camptothecin derivative exatecan (chemical name: (1S,9S)-1-amino-9-ethyl-5-fluoro-2,3-dihydro-9-hydroxy-4-methyl-1H,12H-benzo[de]pyrano[3',4':6,7]imidazo[1,2-b]quinoline-10,13(9H,15H)-dione) in antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) include WO2014057687, Clinical Cancer Research (2016) 22(20):5097-5108, and Cancer Sci (2016) 107:1039-1046. However, further development of ADC drugs with better efficacy is still needed. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0017] 5. MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION It is understood that, within the scope of the present disclosure, the disclosure is not limited to the particular methods and / or experimental conditions described, as such methods and conditions may vary. It is also to be understood that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and is not intended to be limiting.

[0018] Although any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of the present invention, the preferred methods and materials are now described. All patents, applications, and non-patent publications mentioned herein are incorporated by reference in their entirety.

[0019] 5.1.Definition When referring to the compounds provided herein, the following terms have the following meanings unless otherwise specified. Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. When trade names are used herein, unless the context dictates otherwise, the trade name also includes the product formulation, generic drug, and active pharmaceutical ingredient(s) of the trade name product. In the event that there are multiple definitions for terms provided herein, these definitions prevail unless stated otherwise.

[0020] As used herein, the term "antibody" is used in the broadest sense and specifically encompasses intact monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, monospecific antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), and antibody fragments that exhibit the desired biological activity. Naturally occurring antibodies are tetramers, consisting of two identical pairs of immunoglobulin chains, each pair having one light chain and one heavy chain. In each pair, the light and heavy chain variable regions (VL and VH) together are primarily responsible for binding to an antigen. The light and heavy chain variable domains consist of framework regions interrupted by three hypervariable regions (also called "complementarity-determining regions" or "CDRs"). The constant regions are capable of being recognized by and interacting with the immune system (see, e.g., Janeway et al., 2001, Immunol. Biology, 5th Ed., Garland Publishing, New York). The antibody can be of any type (e.g., IgG, IgE, IgM, IgD, and IgA), class (e.g., IgGi, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgAi, and IgA2), or subclass thereof. The antibody can be derived from any suitable species. In some embodiments, the antibody is of human or murine origin. The antibody can be, for example, a human antibody, a humanized antibody, or a chimeric antibody.

[0021] As used herein, the term "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody obtained from a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies, i.e., the individual antibodies comprising the population are identical except for minor mutations that may occur naturally. In contrast, conventional (polyclonal) antibody preparations typically contain a large number of different antibodies with different amino acid sequences within their variable domains, particularly their complementarity-determining regions (CDRs), which are often specific for different epitopes. Monoclonal antibodies are highly specific, directed against a single antigenic site. The modifier "monoclonal" indicates the character of the antibody as being obtained from a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies and is not to be construed as requiring production of the antibody by any particular method.

[0022] An "intact antibody" comprises an antigen-binding variable region and, depending on the antibody class, a light chain constant domain (CL) and heavy chain constant domains, OHI, CH2, CH3, and CH4, as appropriate. The constant domains may be native sequence constant domains (e.g., human native sequence constant domains) or amino acid sequence variants thereof.

[0023] "Antibody fragments" comprise a portion of an intact antibody (including the antigen-binding or variable region thereof). Examples of antibody fragments include Fab, Fab', F(ab'), and Fv fragments, diabodies, triabodies, tetrabodies, linear antibodies, single-chain antibody molecules, scFv, scFv-Fc, multispecific antibody fragments formed from antibody fragment(s), fragment(s) produced by a Fab expression library, or epitope-binding fragments of any of the above that immunospecifically bind to a target antigen (e.g., a cancer cell antigen, a viral antigen, or a microbial antigen).

[0024] An "antigen" is a substance to which an antibody specifically binds.

[0025] As used herein, an antibody "specifically binds" to a target protein means that the antibody exhibits preferential binding to that target relative to other proteins, although this specificity does not require absolute binding specificity. The terms "specifically bind" or "selectively bind" an antibody are used in the context of describing the interaction between an antigen (e.g., a protein) and an antibody or antigen-binding antibody fragment, and refer to a binding reaction that determines the presence of the antigen in a heterogeneous population of proteins and other biologics, such as a biological sample, blood, serum, plasma, or tissue sample. Thus, under certain designated immunoassay conditions, an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof specifically binds to a particular antigen at least twice as much as background levels and does not specifically bind in significant amounts to other antigens present in the sample. In one embodiment, under designated immunoassay conditions, an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof specifically binds to a particular antigen at least ten (10) times as much as background levels of binding and does not specifically bind in significant amounts to other antigens present in the sample.

[0026] The term "inhibit" or "inhibition of" means to reduce by a measurable amount or to prevent completely.

[0027] A "therapeutically effective amount" refers to an amount of a conjugate effective in treating a disease or disorder in a mammal. In the case of cancer, a therapeutically effective amount of a conjugate may reduce the number of cancer cells, shrink tumor size, inhibit (i.e., slow to some extent, and preferably stop) cancer cell invasion into surrounding organs, inhibit (i.e., slow to some extent, and preferably stop) tumor metastasis, inhibit tumor growth to some extent, and / or alleviate to some extent one or more symptoms associated with cancer. To the extent a drug may inhibit growth and / or kill existing cancer cells, it may be cytostatic and / or cytotoxic. With respect to cancer therapy, efficacy can be measured, for example, by assessing the time to disease progression (TTP) and / or determining the response rate (RR).

[0028] The term "substantial" or "substantially" refers to the majority of a mixture or sample, i.e., greater than 50% of the population, preferably greater than 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% of the population.

[0029] The term "cytotoxic activity" refers to the cell-killing effect of a drug or an exatecan derivative conjugate, or an intracellular metabolite of an exatecan derivative conjugate. Cytotoxic activity is measured as the IC50, which is the concentration (molar or mass) per unit volume at which half of the cells survive. 50 It can be expressed as a value.

[0030] The term "cytostatic activity" refers to the antiproliferative effect of a drug or an exatecan derivative conjugate, or an intracellular metabolite of an exatecan derivative conjugate.

[0031] As used herein, the term "cytotoxic agent" refers to a substance that has cytotoxic activity and causes destruction of cells. The term is intended to include chemotherapeutic agents and toxins, such as small molecule toxins or enzymatically active toxins of bacterial, fungal, plant, or animal origin, including synthetic analogs and derivatives thereof.

[0032] As used herein, the term "cytostatic agent" refers to a substance that inhibits cellular function, including cell growth or proliferation. Cytostatic agents include inhibitors, e.g., protein inhibitors, e.g., enzyme inhibitors. Cytostatic agents have cytostatic activity.

[0033] The terms "cancer" and "cancerous" refer to or describe the physiological condition or disorder in mammals that is typically characterized by unregulated cell growth. A "tumor" contains one or more cancerous cells.

[0034] As used herein, "autoimmune disease" refers to a disease or disorder arising from and directed against an individual's own tissues or proteins.

[0035] As used herein, "patient" refers to a subject to which the exatecan derivative conjugate of the present invention is administered. Patients include, but are not limited to, humans, rats, mice, guinea pigs, non-human primates, pigs, goats, cows, horses, dogs, cats, birds, and poultry. Typically, the patient is a rat, mouse, dog, human, or non-human primate, more typically a human.

[0036] The term "treating" or "treatment", unless otherwise specified by context, refers to therapeutic and prophylactic treatment, the purpose of which is to inhibit or delay (reduce) an undesirable physiological change or disorder, such as the onset or metastasis of cancer. For the purposes of the present invention, beneficial or desired clinical outcomes include, but are not limited to, alleviation of symptoms, whether detectable or undetectable, reduction in the extent of the disease, stabilization of the pathological state of the disease ( / .<?., does not deteriorate), delay or deceleration of disease progression, remission or alleviation of the disease state, and (whether partial or complete) remission. "Treatment" can also mean extending the survival period compared to the expected survival period without treatment. Those who require treatment include those who already have a pathological condition or disorder and those who are predisposed to having a pathological condition or disorder.

[0037] In the context of cancer, the term "treating" includes any or all of killing tumor cells, inhibiting the growth of tumor cells, cancer cells, or tumors, inhibiting the replication of tumor cells or cancer cells, reducing the overall tumor mass or decreasing the number of cancerous cells, and alleviating one or more symptoms associated with the disease.

[0038] In the context of autoimmune diseases, the term "treating" includes any or all of inhibiting the replication of cells associated with an autoimmune disease state (including, but not limited to, cells that produce autoantibodies), reducing the amount of autoantibodies, and improving one or more symptoms of the autoimmune disease.

[0039] As used herein, "compound" refers to and includes the chemical compound itself, whether named or structurally represented, and its salt form(s), whether explicitly stated or not (unless the context clearly excludes such salt forms). The term "compound" also includes solvated forms of the compound, where the solvent is non-covalently bound to the compound or reversibly covalently bound to the compound, such as when a carbonyl group of the compound hydrates to form a gem-diol. Solvated forms include the compound itself and its salt form(s), including hemisolvates, monosolvates, and disolvates (including hydrates), and where the compound can bind to more than one solvent molecule, the two or more solvent molecules may be the same or different.

[0040] In some cases, the compounds of the invention include explicit reference to one or more of the above forms, e.g., salts and solvates, and this does not imply any solid-state form of the compound. However, this reference is merely for emphasis and should not be construed as excluding any other forms identified above. Furthermore, when no explicit reference is made to salt and / or solvate forms of a compound or ligand drug conjugate composition, the omission should not be construed as excluding salt and / or solvate form(s) of the compound or conjugate, unless the context makes it clear that such salt and / or solvate forms are excluded.

[0041] As used herein, and in this specification and the appended claims, the indefinite articles "a" and "an" and the definite article "the" include plural and singular referents unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0042] As used herein, unless otherwise specified, the terms "about" and "approximately," when used in connection with an amount or weight percentage of a component of a composition, refer to an amount or weight percentage that would be recognized by one of ordinary skill in the art to provide an equivalent pharmacological effect to that obtained from the specified amount or weight percentage. In certain embodiments, the terms "about" and "approximately," when used in this context, contemplate an amount or weight percentage that is within 30%, 20%, 15%, 10%, or 5% of the specified amount or weight percentage.

[0043] As used herein, unless otherwise specified, the terms "about" and "approximately," when used in connection with a numerical value or range of values ​​provided to characterize a particular solid form, e.g., a particular temperature or temperature range, e.g., one describing melting, dehydration, desolvation, or glass transition temperature, mass change, e.g., mass change as a function of temperature or humidity, solvent or water content (e.g., in terms of mass or percentage), or peak position, e.g., in analysis by IR or Raman spectroscopy or XRPD, indicates that the value or range of values ​​may deviate to an extent that would be considered reasonable by one of ordinary skill in the art and still describe the solid form. Techniques for characterizing crystalline forms and amorphous solids include, but are not limited to, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powder X-ray diffraction (XRPD), single crystal X-ray diffraction, vibrational spectroscopy such as infrared (IR) and Raman spectroscopy, solid-state and solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, optical microscopy, hot-stage optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron crystallography and quantitative analysis, particle size analysis (PSA), surface area analysis, solubility studies, and dissolution studies. In certain embodiments, the terms "about" and "approximately," as used in this context, indicate that a numerical value or range of values ​​may vary within 30%, 20%, 15%, 10%, 9%, 8%, 7%, 6%, 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 1.5%, 1%, 0.5%, or 0.25% of the stated value or range of values. For example, in some embodiments, the value of an XRPD peak position can vary by up to ±0.2 degrees 2θ (or ±0.2 degrees 2θ) and still describe a particular XRPD peak.

In certain embodiments, prodrugs of compounds with a carboxyl functional group are lower alkyl esters of the carboxylic acid. Conveniently, the carboxylic acid esters are formed by esterifying any of the carboxylic acid moieties present on the molecule. Prodrugs are typically prepared by well-known methods, for example, as described in Burger's Medicinal Chemistry and Drug Discovery 6 th(Donald J. Abraham ed., 2001, Wiley) and Design and Application of Prodrugs (H. Bundgaard ed., 1985, Harwood Academic Publishers Gmfh).

[0099] As used herein, unless otherwise indicated, the term "stereoisomer" or "stereoisomerically pure" refers to one stereoisomer of a compound that is substantially free of other stereoisomers of that compound. For example, a stereoisomerically pure compound having one chiral center is substantially free of the opposite enantiomer of the compound. A stereoisomerically pure compound having two chiral centers is substantially free of other diastereomers of the compound. A typical stereoisomerically pure compound contains greater than about 80% by weight of one stereoisomer of the compound and less than about 20% by weight of other stereoisomers of the compound, greater than about 90% by weight of one stereoisomer of the compound and less than about 10% by weight of other stereoisomers of the compound, greater than about 95% by weight of one stereoisomer of the compound and less than about 5% by weight of other stereoisomers of the compound, or greater than about 97% by weight of one stereoisomer of the compound and less than about 3% by weight of other stereoisomers of the compound. Compounds may contain chiral centers and may exist as racemates, individual enantiomers or diastereomers, and mixtures thereof. All such isomers, including mixtures thereof, are included in the embodiments disclosed herein. The use of stereomerically pure forms of such compounds, as well as mixtures of these forms, is encompassed by the embodiments disclosed herein. For example, mixtures containing equal or unequal amounts of the enantiomers of a particular compound may be used in the methods and compositions disclosed herein. These isomers can be asymmetrically synthesized or resolved using standard techniques (e.g., chiral columns or chiral resolving agents).See, for example, Jacques, J., et al., Enantiomers, Racemates and Resolutions (Wiley Interscience, New York, 1981); Wilen, SH, et al., Tetrahedron 33:2725 (1977); Eliel, E.L., Stereochemistry of Carbon Compounds (McGraw Hill, NY, 1962); and Wilen, SH, Tables of Resolving Agents and Optical Resolutions p. 268 (E.L.
