[Background technology]

[0002] Despite the increasing availability of treatment options, cancer remains the second leading cause of death worldwide. Treatment strategies primarily focus on targeting malignant cancer cells themselves, neglecting the constantly present surrounding tumor microenvironment (TME), which limits the access of therapeutic cancer cell therapies (Valkenburg et al., Nat Rev Clin Oncol, 2018, 15:366). The TME is part of the tumor mass and consists not only of a heterogeneous population of cancer cells but also of various resident and invasive host cells, secreted factors, and extracellular matrix proteins (Quail et al., Nat Med, 2013, 19:1423). The dominant cell type found in the TME is cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) (Kalluri, Nat Rev Cancer, 2016, 16:582). For example, many different cell types, such as fibroblasts, mesenchymal stem cells, smooth muscle cells, epithelial cells, or endothelial cells, have been described as sources and origins for CAFs (Madar et al., Trends Mol Med, 2013, 19:447). CAFs often exhibit mesenchymal-like characteristics and are the dominant cell type within solid tumor masses. CAFs are attracting increasing attention as players in tumor progression and homeostasis (Gascard et al., Genes Dev, 2016, 30:1002; LeBleu et al., Dis Model Mech, 2018, 11).

[0003] In recent years, fibroblast-activating protein (FAP) has lost its reputation as a marker for carcinomatous fibroblast (CAF) (Shiga et al., Cancers (Basel), 2015, 7:2443; Pure et al., Oncogene, 2018, 37:4343; Jacob et al., Curr Mol Med, 2012, 12:1220). Due to the ubiquity of CAF in tumors and stroma, FAP has been found to be a suitable marker for radiopharmaceutical diagnostics and a suitable target for radiopharmaceutical therapy (Siveke, J Nucl Med, 2018, 59:1412).

[0004] Fibroblast-activating protein α (FAP) is a member of the type II transmembrane serine protease and S9 prolyl oligopeptidase family (Park et al., J Biol Chem, 1999, 274:36505). Its closest family member, DPP4, shares 53% homology with FAP. Like other DPP enzymes (DPP4, DPP7, DPP8, DPP9), FAP possesses post-proline exopeptidase activity. Furthermore, FAP, like prolyl oligopeptidase / endopeptidase (POP / PREP), possesses endopeptidase activity. The FAP gene is highly conserved across various species. The extracellular domain of human FAP has 90% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat FAP. Mouse FAP has 97% sequence identity with rat FAP.

[0005] Structurally, FAP is a 760-amino acid transmembrane protein consisting of a short N-terminal cytoplasmic tail (6 amino acids), a single transmembrane domain (20 amino acids), and an extracellular domain of 734 amino acids (Aertgeerts et al., J Biol Chem, 2005, 280:19441). This extracellular domain consists of an 8-blade β-propeller domain and an α / β-hydrolase domain. The three catalytic residues, Ser624, Asp702, and His734, are located at the interface between the β-propeller domain and the hydrolase domain. The active site is accessible through the central pore of the β-propeller domain or through a narrow cavity between the β-propeller domain and the hydrolase domain. FAP monomers are inactive, but they form active homodimers and heterodimers with DPP4 (Ghersi et al., Cancer Res, 2006, 66:4652). Soluble homodimer FAP has also been described (Keane et al., FEBS Open Bio, 2013, 4:43; Lee et al., Blood, 2006, 107:1397).

[0006] FAP possesses dual enzymatic activity (Hamson et al., Proteomics Clin Appl, 2014, 8:454). Its dipeptidyl peptidase activity cleaves the two amino acids at the N-terminus after the proline residue. FAP substrates rapidly cleaved by its dipeptidyl peptidase activity are neuropeptide Y, peptide YY, substance P, and type B natriuretic peptide. Collagen I and III, FGF21, and α2-antiplasmin have been shown to be cleaved by the endopeptidase activity of FAP. While FAP cannot cleave native collagen, pre-digestion by other proteases such as matrix metalloproteinases facilitates further collagen cleavage by FAP. Collagen processing may affect the migratory ability of cancer cells. In addition to increased invasiveness of cancer cells through extracellular matrix remodeling, several other FAP-mediated tumorigenic roles have been proposed, including increased proliferation and angiogenesis. Furthermore, stromal expression of FAP is associated with evading immune surveillance in various cancers, suggesting a role in antitumor immunity (Pure et al., Oncogene, 2018, 37:4343).

[0007] FAP is transiently expressed during normal development but is rarely expressed in healthy adult tissues. In transgenic mice, FAP has been shown to be expressed in adipose tissue, skeletal muscle, skin, bone, and pancreas (Pure et al., Oncogene, 2018, 37: 4343; Roberts et al., J Exp Med, 2013, 210: 1137). However, FAP knockout mice have a healthy phenotype, suggesting overlapping roles under normal conditions (Niedermeyer et al., Mol Cell Biol, 2000, 20: 1089). In sites of active tissue remodeling, including wound healing, fibrosis, arthritis, atherosclerosis, and cancer, FAP becomes highly upregulated in stromal cells (Pure et al., Oncogene, 2018, 37: 4343).

[0008] FAP expression in the tumor stroma of 90% of epithelial carcinomas was first reported in 1990 under the use of the monoclonal antibody F19 (Garin-Chesa et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 1990, 87:7235; Rettig et al., Cancer Res, 1993, 53:3327). Stromal cells expressing FAP were further characterized as cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and cancer-associated pericytes (Cremasco et al., Cancer Immunol Res, 2018, 6:1472). FAP expression on malignant epithelial cells has also been reported, but its significance has not yet been established (Pure et al., Oncogene, 2018, 37:4343). Busek et al. (Busek et al., Fron Table 1 below, taken from Biosci (Landmark Ed), 2018, 23:1933), summarizes the expression of FAP in various malignant tumors exhibiting different tumor types and cellular expression.

[0009] [Table 1-1]

[0010] [Table 1-2]

[0011] FAP expression in CAFs has been demonstrated in almost all carcinomas and sarcomas (Pure et al., Oncogene, 2018, 37:4343; Busek et al., Front Biosci (Landmark Ed), 2018, 23:1933). Furthermore, CAFs are present in hematological malignancies (Raffaghello et al., Oncotarget, 2015, 6:2589). Therefore, the use of FAP as a therapeutic target is not limited to any particular tumor entity.

[0012] The abundance of CAFs expressing FAP is reported to correlate with poor prognosis. Across various human tumor indications, FAP expression has been reported to correlate with higher tumor malignancy and worse overall survival (Pure et al., Oncogene, 2018, 37:4343).

[0013] As described above, FAP and FAP-expressing cells present in the tumor microenvironment have been shown to significantly influence tumor progression (Hanahan et al., Cancer Cell, 2012, 21:309). Furthermore, due to its relatively selective expression in tumors, FAP is, As described below, it is considered a suitable target for therapeutic and diagnostic agents (Siveke, J Nucl Med, 2018, 59:1412; Christiansen et al., Neoplasia, 2013, 15:348; Zi et al., Mol Med Rep, 2015, 11:3203).

[0014] Shortly after its discovery, FAP was utilized as a therapeutic target in cancer. To date, various strategies have been explored, including, for example, inhibition of FAP enzyme activity, removal of FAP-positive cells, or targeted delivery of cytotoxic compounds.

[0015] In 2007, talabostat (Val-boro-Pro, PT-100), an inhibitor of FAP and DPP4, was developed by Point Therapeutics (e.g., U.S. Patent No. 6,890,904, WO9916864). Pennisi et al. (Pennisi et al., Br J Haematol, 2009, 145:775) observed a reduction in tumor growth in several myeloma animal models and cancer syngeneic mouse models. Furthermore, several other prolylboronic acid derivatives have been developed, and F These derivatives were reported as putative selective inhibitors for AP. These derivatives exhibit instability in aqueous environments at physiological pH (Coutts et al., J Med Chem, 1996, 39:2087) and show nonspecific reactivity with other enzymes.

[0016] WO2008 / 116054 disclosed hexapeptide derivatives in which the compound contains a C-terminal bisamino or boronic acid functional group. US2017 / 0066800 disclosed pseudopeptide inhibitors, such as M83, that are effective against FAP. These inhibitors were evaluated in lung and colon cancer xenografts in immunodeficient mice. Suppression of tumor growth was observed (Jackson et al., Neoplasia, 2015, 17:43). These pseudopeptides inhibit the activity of both prolyl oligopeptidase (POP / PREP) and FAP, thereby ruling out their use as specific therapeutic FAP inhibitors.

[0017] US2008 / 280856 disclosed inhibitors based on nanomolar concentrations of boronic acid. The inhibitors exhibit bispecific inhibition of FAP and PREP, thereby excluding their use as specific therapeutic FAP inhibitors.

[0018] FAP inhibitors based on cyclic peptides have been disclosed, for example, in WO2016 / 146174 and WO2006 / 042282. WO2016 / 146174 discloses a peptide for the diagnosis and treatment of FAP-expressing tumors exhibiting specificity for FAP, the closely related homolog DPP4 was not recognized by the peptide. WO2006 / 042282 discloses a polypeptide for the treatment of melanoma. Inhibition of melanoma growth and metastasis was shown in nude mice.

[0019] WO99 / 75151 and WO01 / 68708 disclosed the humanized FAP monoclonal antibody, F19 (cibrotuzumab). Furthermore, the anti-FAP antibody F19 and its humanized version were disclosed in WO99 / 57151 and WO01 / 68708. The development methodology included, for example, the generation of high-affinity, species-cross-reactive, FAP-specific scFv converted to a divalent derivative (Brocks et al., Mol Med, 2001, 7:461). In Phase I and Phase II clinical trials, cibrotuzumab showed specific tumor enrichment, but failed to demonstrate measurable therapeutic activity in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer, with only 2 out of 17 patients having stable disease (Hofheinz et al., Onkologie, 2003, 26:44). This F19 antibody was shown not to block any cellular or protease function of FAP, which may explain the lack of therapeutic effect (Hofheinz et al., Onkologie, 2003, 26:44; Scott et al., Clin Cancer Res, 2003, 9:1639).

[0020] US2018 / 022822 disclosed novel molecules that specifically bind to human FAP and its epitopes as human-derived antibodies and chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) useful in treating FAP-induced diseases and conditions. Treatment of mice carrying orthotopic and syngeneic MC38 colorectal tumors with anti-FAP antibodies reduced tumor diameter and the number of metastases. WO2012 / 020006 disclosed glycosylated antibodies carrying modified oligosaccharides in their Fc regions. Subsequently, bispecific antibodies specific to FAP and DR5 were developed as the subject of WO2014 / 161845. These antibodies induced tumor cell apoptosis in in vitro and in vivo preclinical tumor models with FAP-positive stroma (Brunker et al., Mol Cancer Ther, 2016, 15:946). Antibody-drug conjugates and immunotoxins targeting FAP are described in WO2015 / 118030. In vitro toxicity and in vivo inhibition of tumor growth were demonstrated after application of the anti-hu / moFAP hu36:cytolysin ADC candidate. It is unclear whether these antibodies were able to inhibit FAP activity.

[0021] A small molecule FAP inhibitor based on (4-quinolinoyl)glycyrrhizin exhibiting low nanomolar inhibitory efficacy and high selectivity against related DPP and PREP was described by Jansen et al. (Jansen et al., J Med Chem, 2014, 57:3053; Jansen et al., ACS Med Chem Lett, 2013, 4:491) and disclosed in WO2013 / 107820. However, that compound is not structurally related to the compound of the present invention and contains a warhead that provides covalent bonding to FAP.

[0022] In recent years, several FAP-targeted radiopharmaceutical methods, as illustrated herein, have been developed. WO2010 / 036814 disclosed small molecule inhibitors of FAP for use as therapeutic agents by inhibiting FAP enzyme activity, or as radiopharmaceuticals by binding to FAP.

[0023] WO2019 / 083990 disclosed imaging and radiotherapeutic agents based on small molecule FAP inhibitors described by Jansen et al. (Jansen et al., J Med Chem, 2014, 57:3053; Jansen et al., ACS Med Chem Lett, 2013, 4:491). Furthermore, some authors also disclosed Jansen et al. (Jansen et al., J Med Chem, 2014, 57:3053; Jansen et al., ACS We have described the selective uptake of imaging and radiotherapy agents in tumors of cancer patients based on FAP inhibitors, as described by Med Chem Lett, 2013, 4:491 (Lindner et al., J Nucl Med, 2018, 59:1415; Loktev et al., J Nucl Med, 2018, 59:1423; Giesel et al., J Nucl Med, 2019, 60:386; Loktev et al., J Nucl Med, 2019, Mar 8 (preprint electronic edition); Giesel et al., Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging, 2019, 46:1754; Kratochwil et al., J Nucl Med, 2019, 60:801).

[0024] 131 Clinical evaluation of a humanized form of 1-labeled F19 antibody (cibrotuzumab) showed selective uptake by tumors rather than normal tissues in patients with colorectal cancer or non-small cell lung cancer (Scott et al., Clin Cancer Res, 2003, 9:1639). This may be due to the long circulation time of the antibody, which makes it unsuitable for diagnostic, therapeutic, or diagnostic-therapeutic techniques involving radionuclides.

[0025] WO2011 / 040972 disclosed a high-affinity antibody that recognizes both human and mouse FAP antigens as a potent radioactive immunoconjugate. ESC11 IgG1 induces downmodulation and internalization of surface FAP (Fischer et al., Clin Cancer Res, 2012, 18:6208). WO2017 / 211809 disclosed a tissue-targeted thorium-227 conjugate in which the targeting portion has specificity for FAP. However, the long circulation times of these antibodies make them unsuitable for diagnostic, therapeutic, or diagnostic-therapeutic techniques involving radionuclides.

[0026] FAP is also described as being involved in diseases other than tumor indications, examples of which are given below. Fibroblast-like synovial cells in the joints of patients with rheumatoid arthritis show significantly increased expression of FAP (Bauer et al., Arthritis Res Ther, 2006, 8:R171; Milner et al., Arthritis Res Ther, 2006, 8:R23). In rheumatoid arthritis, interstitial cells play a crucial role in organizing the structure of the synovial tissue of the joint by producing extracellular matrix components, recruiting infiltrating immune cells, and secreting inflammatory mediators. They play a role. There is considerable evidence supporting the role of these cells in driving inflammation and the persistence of joint damage (Bartok et al., Immunol Rev, 2010, 233:233; Turner et al., Curr Opin Rheumatol, 2015, 27:175). In rheumatoid arthritis, FAP has a pathological role in cartilage turnover, at least by promoting proteoglycan loss and subsequent chondrolysis (Bauer et al., Arthritis Res Ther, 2006, 8:R171; Waldele et al., Arthritis Res Ther, 2015, 17:12). Therefore, it may be useful as a marker for patient stratification or as a therapeutic target for evaluating and tracking the success of treatment (Bauer et al., Arthritis Res Ther, 2006, 8:R171). In mice, the treatment response is 99m This was demonstrated using SPECT / CT imaging with Tc-labeled anti-FAP antibody (van der Geest et al., Rheumatology (Oxford), 2018, 57:737; Laverman et al., J Nucl Med, 2015, 56:778; van der Geest et al., J Nucl Med, 2017, 58:151).

[0027] Furthermore, FAP has been recognized not only as a marker of activated fibroblasts in the injury response (Tillmanns et al., Int J Cardiol, 2013, 168:3926) but also as an important player in the wound healing process (Ramirez-Montagut et al., Oncogene, 2004, 23:5435). Jing et al. demonstrated the time-dependent course of changes in FAP expression after burn wounds in rats (Jing et al., Nan Fang Yi Ke Da Xue Xu Bao, 2013, 33:615). Inhibition of FAP activity in reactive wound fibroblasts in keloid scars, a common benign fibroproliferative reticular skin lesion, may offer a therapeutic option to prevent disease progression (Dienus et al., Arch Dermatol Res, 2010, 302:725).

[0028] Upregulated FAP expression has been observed in fibrosis, for example, in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, Crohn's disease, and hepatic fibrosis. Upregulated FAP expression was observed in an ex vivo model of Crohn's disease, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease characterized by excessive, misequilibrium extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition. FAP inhibition reconstituted extracellular matrix homeostasis (Truffi et al., Inflamm Bowel Dis, 2018, 24:332). Similar observations were made by Egger et al. (Egger et al., Eur J Pharmacol, 2017, 809:64) using a mouse model of pulmonary fibrosis. Inhibition of FAP results in a reduction of fibrous pathology. FAP is also expressed in tissue remodeling regions in chronically damaged liver (Wang et al., Front Biosci, 2008, 13:3168), and FAP expression by hepatic stellate cells correlates with the histological severity of liver disease (Gorrell et al., Adv Exp Med Biol, 2003, 524:235). Therefore, FAP is also a promising target in the treatment of hepatic fibrosis (Lay et al., Front Biosci(Landmark Ed),2019,24:1).

[0029] FAP is expressed in atherosclerotic lesions and is upregulated in activated vascular smooth muscle cells (Monslow et al., Circulation, 2013, 128:A17597). Monslow et al. showed that targeted inhibition of FAP in atherosclerotic lesions can reduce overall lesion volume, inhibit inflammatory cell homing, and increase lesion stability by altering lesion structure through its ability to prefer substrate-rich lesions over inflammation. More importantly, many atherosclerotic pathologies share a common pathological feature: rupture of atherosclerotic plaques that induce atherosclerotic lesions (Davies et al., Br Heart J, 1985, 53:363; Falk, Am J Cardiol, 1989, 63:114e). Rupture of the fibrous capsule in progressive atherosclerotic plaques is a significant trigger for acute coronary syndrome, which can lead to myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death. Important events in promoting plaque instability One such mechanism is the breakdown of the fibrous capsule, which causes thrombosis and subsequent vascular occlusion by exposing the underlying thrombus-forming plaque core to blood flow (Farb et al., Circulation, 1996, 93:1354; Virmani et al., J Am Coll Cardiol, 2006, 47:C13). Brokopp et al. showed that FAP contributes to the breakdown of type I collagen in the fibrous capsule (Brokopp et al., Eur Heart J, 2011, 32:2713). Radiolabeled tracers have been developed and their applicability to atherosclerosis imaging has been demonstrated (Meletta et al., Molecules, 2015, 20:2081). [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0445] Since no nanomolar affinity-specific cyclic peptide-based inhibitors for fibroblast-activating proteins (FAPs) have been described to date, the present invention is based on the inventors' remarkable discovery that the compound of the present invention, more specifically its cyclic peptide, provides highly specific binding to FAPs for compounds containing such cyclic peptides.

[0446] Furthermore, the present invention is based on the remarkable discovery that chelating agents can be attached to the cyclic peptide directly or indirectly, i.e., using linkers, at three different positions. The first position is Yc having the structure of formula (X), linking the S atom of Xaa1 to the S atom of Xaa7, and thus forming two thioether linkages; the second position is Aaa attached to Xaa1 of the cyclic peptide of formula (I); and the third position is an amino acid or peptide attached to Xaa7. Remarkably, such attachment of chelating agents does not significantly affect the binding of the compounds of the present invention to FAP, or the inhibitory properties of the compounds of the present invention to FAP. In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a cyclic peptide of formula (I) in which the chelating agent (Z group) is attached to only one of the first, second, or third positions defined above. It is also within the scope of the present invention that the chelating agent is attached to the cyclic peptide of formula (I) in any combination of the first, second, and third positions defined above. More specifically, the present invention also relates to compounds of formula (I) in which the Z group is attached to both the first and second positions defined above, compounds of formula (I) in which the Z group is attached to both the first and third positions defined above, compounds of formula (I) in which the Z group is attached to both the second and third positions defined above, and compounds of formula (I) in which the Z group is attached to the first, second and third positions defined above. These compounds containing two or three Z groups can be realized in any embodiment of the present invention disclosed herein.

More preferably, the chemical bond is a covalent bond or a plurality of chemical bonds. Most preferably, the linkage is a covalent bond or a coordinate bond. Preferably, as used herein, an embodiment with a coordinate bond is a bond or group of bonds realized when metals are bonded by a chelating agent. Different types of linkages are made depending on the types of atoms being linked and their atomic environments. These types of linkages are defined by the type of atomic arrangement made by the linkage. For example, the linkage between a part containing an amine and a part containing a carboxylic acid results in a linkage called an amide linkage (also called an amide linkage, -CO-N-, -N-CO-). Those skilled in the art will recognize that the following examples of making this and linkage are merely prototype examples and do not limit the scope of this application in any way. Those skilled in the art will recognize that the bonding of an amine-containing moiety with an isothiocyanate-containing moiety results in thiourea (also known as thiourea linkage, -N-CS-N-), and the bonding of a C atom-containing moiety with a thiol group (-C-SH) results in thioether (also known as thioether linkage, -CSC-). A non-limiting list of linkages preferably used in connection with the chelating agents and linkers of the present invention, and their characteristic atomic arrangements, are presented in Table 2.

[0478] [Table 2]

[0479] Table 3 summarizes examples of reactive groups used in some embodiments of the present invention to form a linkage between a chelating agent and a linker, or to form a direct bond between a chelating agent and a compound of the present invention. However, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the linkages that can be realized in embodiments for forming the conjugate of the present invention are not limited to those in Table 3, nor are they limited to the reactive groups that form such linkages.

[0480] [Table 3]

[0481] The following are reactive groups and functional groups used in embodiments of the conjugate of the present invention that are utilized or suitable for forming linkages between parts or structures. Primary or secondary amino acids, carboxylic acids, activated carboxylic acids, chloro, bromo, iodine, sulfhydryl, hydroxyl, sulfonic acid, activated sulfonic acid, sulfonic acid esters such as mesylate or tosylate, Michael acceptors, transcyclooctene, isocyanates, isothiocyanates, azides, alkynes, and strained alkenes such as tetrazines.

[0482] Preferably as used herein, the term “activated carboxylic acid” refers to a carboxylic acid group having the general formula -CO-X, where X is a leaving group. For example, the activated form of the carboxylic acid group may include, but is not limited to, acyl chlorides, symmetric or asymmetric anhydrides, and esters. In some embodiments, the activated carboxylic acid group is an ester having pentafluorophenol, nitrophenol, benzotriazole, azabenzotriazole, thiophenol, or N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) as the leaving group.

[0483] Preferably as used herein, the term “activated sulfonic acid” refers to a sulfonic acid group having the general formula -SO2-X, where X is a leaving group. For example, the activated form of a sulfonic acid may include, but is not limited to, a sulfonyl chloride or a sulfonic anhydride. In some embodiments, the activated sulfonic acid group is a sulfonyl chloride containing a chloride as the leaving group.

[0484] In some embodiments, preferably as used herein, the term "mediating linkages" "Established" means that a linkage or linkage type is established, preferably a linkage between two parts. In preferred embodiments, the linkage and linkage type are as defined herein.

[0485] In this application, within the range referred to by lower and higher integers, such as 1 to 4, such range is a representation of lower integers, higher integers, and any integer between lower and higher integers. To that extent, this range is in fact an individualized disclosure of the above integers. In the above example, the range 1 to 4 means 1, 2, 3, and 4.

[0486] The compounds of the present invention typically comprise amino acid sequences provided herein. Conventional amino acids, also known as natural amino acids, are identified according to their standard three-letter and one-letter abbreviations, as shown in Table 4.

[0487] [Table 4]

[0488] Non-conventional amino acids, also known as unnatural amino acids, are any type of non-oligomeric compound that contains an amino group and a carboxyl group and is not a conventional amino acid. Examples of non-conventional amino acids and other components used in the constructive compounds of the present invention are identified according to their abbreviations or names found in Table 5. The structures of some components are described by exemplary reagents (e.g., carboxylic acid-like) for introducing the components into peptides, or these components are shown as residues fully attached to another structure, such as a peptide or amino acid. The structures of amino acids are shown as explicit amino acids, and how they are presented after implementation into a peptide sequence is not shown. These are not shown as amino acid residues.

[0502] [Table 5-14]

[0503] The amino acid sequences of peptides provided herein are described in a typical peptide sequence format, as can be understood by those skilled in the art. For example, three-letter notations for conventional amino acids, or non-conventional amino acid notations, or abbreviations for additional components indicate the presence of an amino acid or component at a specific position within the peptide sequence. Each amino acid notation or component is connected by a hyphen (typically representing amide linkage) to the next and / or previous amino acid notation or component in the sequence.

[0504] When an amino acid contains more than one amino acid and / or carboxyl group, all orientations of this amino acid are possible in principle, but in the case of α-amino acids, the use of α-amino and α-carboxyl groups is preferred, or otherwise a preferred orientation is explicitly specified.

[0505] For amino acids, the first letter in their abbreviations indicates the stereochemistry of the C-α atom, where applicable. For example, the first capital letter indicates that the L-form of the amino acid is present in the peptide sequence. The presence of the lowercase letter indicates the presence of the D-form of the corresponding amino acid in the peptide sequence.

[0506] In some embodiments, preferably as used herein, the aromatic L-α-amino acid is any type of L-α-amino acid containing an aryl group. In some embodiments, preferably as used herein, the heteroaromatic L-α-amino acid is any type of L-α-amino acid containing a heteroaryl group.

[0507] Those skilled in the art will recognize whether such stereocenters are present in the compounds disclosed herein, whether they are part of an amino acid moiety or any other part or portion of the compounds of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention encompasses both possible stereoisomers, including not only racemic compounds but also individual enantiomers and / or diastereomers. Where a compound is desired as a single enantiomer or diastereomer, it can be obtained by stereospecific synthesis or by the resolution of the final product or any convenient intermediate. The resolution of the final product, intermediate, or starting material can be influenced by any suitable method known in the art. See, for example, "Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds" by ELEEliel, SHWilen, and LNMander (Wiley-Interscience, 1994).

[0508] In this application, the structural formula of a compound may, for convenience, represent certain isomers, but the present invention includes all isomers, such as geometric isomers, optical isomers based on chiral carbons, stereoisomers, and tautomers.

[0509] Unless otherwise specified, amino acid sequences are presented herein from the N-terminus to the C-terminus. Derivatives of amino acids constituting the peptide of the present invention may be listed in Table 6. In any embodiment, one or more amino acids of the compound of the present invention are substituted with a derivative of a corresponding preferred amino acid.

[0510] [Table 6-1]

[0511] [Table 6-2]

[0512] Linear peptides Typical linear peptides are usually described from the N-terminus to the C-terminus, as shown below: NT-Xaa1-Xaa2-Xaa3-Xaa4-...Xaan-CT; There, 1. Xaax is an abbreviation, descriptor, or symbol for an amino acid or component at a specific sequence position x, as shown in Table 5. 2. NT is an abbreviation for the N-terminal group, such as "H" (hydrogen in the case of a free N-terminal amino group), or "Ac" in the case of acetic acid, or another chemical group or structural formula of a chemical group linked to the N-terminal amino acid notation (Xaa1) via a hyphen, and 3. CT is an abbreviation for a C-terminal group that is typically "OH" or "NH2" (as a terminal carboxylic acid or amide), or a specific terminal amine (Xaan) linked to the C-terminal amino acid notation via a hyphen. Branched peptides having side chains modified by specific components or peptides. Typical linear branched peptides are described from the N-terminus to the C-terminus, as shown below: NT-Xaa1-Xaa2-Xaa3(NT-Xab1-Xab2-......Xabn)-......Xaan-CT In this case, the specifications of Xaax, NT, and CT in the main chain of the branched peptide are applied according to the descriptions 1-3 for linear peptides.

[0513] The branching location is specified in parentheses after the abbreviation Xaax. Branching typically occurs at lysine (Lys) residues (or similar), meaning the branching is attached to the ε-amino functional group of the lysine side chain via an amide bond.

[0514] The content in parentheses describes the sequence / structure of the peptide branch "NT-Xab1-Xab2-......Xabn". Here, 1. Xabx is an abbreviation, descriptor, or symbol for an amino acid or component at a specific sequence position x of a branch, as shown in Table 3. 2. NT is the N-terminal group, and for certain terminal carboxylic acids, such as "Ac" in acetic acid, it is an abbreviation or linked to the N-terminal amino acid notation (Xab1) via a hyphen. Other chemical groups or the structural formula of a chemical group, 3. The final component of branched Xabn, which connects the branch to the main chain by forming an amide bond that has the amino function of the lysine (or a similar residue) side chain and its own carboxyl function. Cyclic peptide An exemplary common cyclic peptide described from the N-terminus to the C-terminus is shown below: NT-Xaa1-[Xaa2-Xaa3-Xaa4-......Xaan]-CT; Here, the specifications of Xaax, NT, and CT in the main chain of the cyclic peptide are applied according to explanations 1-3 of the linear peptide description. Characteristics of the peptide cycle are indicated in square brackets.

[0515] 1. Open square brackets indicate the component, which is the side chain (cycle initiation residue) where the cycle begins. 2. Closed square brackets indicate the component, which is the side chain where the cycle ends (cycle termination residue).

[0516] The chemical properties of the connection between these two residues are as follows: 1. An amide bond in which one of the indicated residues contains an amino functional group (e.g., Lys) in its side chain, while the other contains a carboxyl functional group (e.g., Glu) in its side chain, or 2. Disulfide bond when the indicated residue / amino acid contains a sulfhydryl moiety (e.g., Cys). Cyclic peptides containing an addition cycloaddition element (Yc) A typical elongated cyclic peptide described from the N-terminus to the C-terminus is shown below: NT-Xaa1-[Xaa2(Yc)-Xaa3-Xaa4-...Xaan]-CT; Here, the specifications of Xaax, NT, and CT in the backbone of the cyclic peptide are applied according to explanations 1-3 of the linear peptide description. Furthermore, Yc is the cyclization element. As with cyclic peptides, the characteristics of the cycle are identified by square brackets indicating the cycle start and cycle end residues.

[0517] The parentheses adjacent to the cycle start residue identify the cyclization element Yc in the extended peptide cycle. The Yc element is linked to the side chain of the above residue. Furthermore, the Yc element is linked to the side chain of the cycle end residue. The chemical nature of the linkage between any of these residues and the Yc element depends on the side chain functionality of the corresponding amino acid Xaan. If the side chain of Xaan contains a sulfhydryl group (e.g., Cys), the linkage is thioether.

[0518] As a non-restrictive example, the structure of Ac-[Cys(tMeBn(DOTA-PP))-Pro-Pro-Thr-Gln-Phe-Cys]-OH is described below.

[0519] [ka]

[0520] There, 1. Ac corresponds to NT in the general formula. 2. Cys, Pro, Pro, Thr, Gln, Phe, and Cys correspond to Xaa1 to Xaa7 in the general formula.

[0521] 3. OH corresponds to CT in the general formula. 4. Open square brackets (,[') adjacent to the N-terminal cysteine ​​in a sequence indicate that the cycle begins at this residue (cycle start residue).

[0522] 5. Closed square brackets (,]') adjacent to the N-terminal cysteine ​​in a sequence indicate that the cycle ends at this residue (cycle termination residue). 6. The tMeBn in parentheses adjacent to the Cys residue, indicated as the start residue, identifies the cyclization element Yc. It further binds to the Cys residue, indicated as the end-cycle residue. The Yc element is linked to the above residue via a thioether linkage.

[0523] 7. The remaining connection points of the tMeBn residue are chelated by the DOTA chelator via the PP linker. Clear terminology such as "Cys(tMeBn(DOTA-PP))" is included in the list of chemical structures in Table 2.

[0524] In embodiments of the present invention, an amino acid or peptide is attached to Xaa7, and most of the amino acids in this peptide are charged or polar, and the net charge of the peptide is -2, -1, 0, +1, or +2.

[0525] In calculating the net charge of a peptide, negatively charged amino acids are those that have acidic groups such as -COOH or -SO3H in their side chains, and their net charge corresponds to the number of acidic groups; for example, Asp or Glu have a net charge of -1.

[0526] In this calculation, positively charged amino acids are those that have a basic group such as amino or -guanidino in their side chain, and their net charge corresponds to the number of basic groups; for example, Lys or Arg have a net charge of +1.

[0527] Polar amino acids are amino acids that have polar groups in their side chains. Polar groups include CONH2, OH, F, Cl, CN, and heterocyclic groups such as imidazole in histidine. And so on.

[0528] Polar amino acids have a net charge of 0. While some nitrogen-containing heterocycles are known to protonate in equilibrium depending on the pH of the environment and therefore acquire a positive charge to some extent, their net charge is considered to be 0 in calculations.

[0529] Most of the amino acids in this peptide (more than 50%) are charged or polar. Preferably, the positive or negative charge may be determined by polar or nonpolar amino acids.

[0530] In some embodiments, the presence of negatively charged amino acids is preferred in Xaa10. In some embodiments, the presence of positively charged amino acids is preferable for Xaa13, preferably Arg and arg.

[0531] According to the present invention, the compounds of the present invention may contain a Z group. The Z group comprises a chelating agent and optionally a linker. Preferably, when used, a linker is an element, part, or structure that separates two parts of a molecule. In the present invention, the linker group forms a covalent bond with both the chelating agent group and the respective parts of the compound of the present invention to which the Z is attached. The linker group can, in principle, be any chemical group that can form a bond at a particular position with both the chelating agent group and the part of the compound of the present invention.

[0532] An important property or feature of the linker is that it separates the chelating agent and the cyclic peptide moiety of the compound of the present invention. This is particularly important when the target-binding ability of the cyclic peptide is impaired by the proximity of the chelating agent. However, the overall linker length in its most elongated conformational isomer should not exceed 200 Å, preferably 150 Å or less, and most preferably 100 Å or less.

[0533] In a preferred embodiment, the linker is -[X] a -where a is an integer from 1 to 10, and each X is an individual component that is independently connected to its neighbors in the sequence by a functional group selected from those including amide linkages, urea linkages, carbamate linkages, ester linkages, ether linkages, thioether linkages, sulfonamides, triazoles, and disulfide linkages.

[0534] X1 is connected to the chelating agent, and if present, to X2, or to the compound of the present invention at a specific position. a If it exists, then X a-1 It is connected to and connected to the compound of the present invention at a specific position.

[0535] A more preferred class of linker group is -[X] a Represented by -, where a is an integer from 1 to 10, preferably an integer from 1 to 8, 1 to 6, 1 to 5, 1 to 4, or 1 to 3, and each X is an individual component independently connected to its neighbors in the sequence by a functional group selected from the group including amide linkages, urea linkages, carbamate linkages, ester linkages, ether linkages, thioether linkages, sulfonamide linkages, triazole linkages, and disulfide linkages.

[0539] Preferably, apart from the linkage between X1 and the chelating agent, the linkage is an amide linkage. More preferably, components X2~X a These are independently selected from the group including amino acids, dicarboxylic acids, and diamines, and their respective linkages are amides.

[0540] In one embodiment, component X2~X aThe amino acid is preferably an amino acid, which is selected from the group including conventional and non-conventional amino acids. In one embodiment, the amino acid is selected from the group including β-amino acids, γ-amino acids, δ-amino acids, ε-amino acids, and ω-amino acids. In a further embodiment, the amino acid is a cyclic amino acid or a linear amino acid.

[0541] In one embodiment, component X2~X a The amino acid is preferably an amino acid, which is selected from a group of amino acids that differ in the spacing between the carboxyl group and the amino group. These types of amino acids generally include:

[0542] [ka]

[0543] It can be expressed as follows. It is within the scope of the present invention that such amino acids are not further substituted. However, it is also within the scope of the present invention that such amino acids are further substituted, preferably such substitutions are CO-NH2 and / or Ac-NH-.

[0544] Representative examples of this type of amino acid (structure 32) that can be used as component X include glycine (Gly), β-alanine (Bal), γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), aminopentanoic acid, aminohexanoic acid, and their homologues having up to 10 CH2 groups.

[0545] Typical examples of this type of amino acid (structure 33) that are more preferably used as component X are 3-aminomethylbenzoic acid, 4-aminomethylbenzoic acid, anthranilic acid, 3-aminobenzoic acid, and 4-aminobenzoic acid.

[0546] The relevant components are diamines derived from amino acids (structure 32+33) by substituting NH2 with COOH, which are preferably used as component X and are diaminoethane, 1,3-diaminopropane, 1,4-diaminobutane, 1,5-diaminopentane, 3-aminomethylaniline, 4-aminomethylaniline, 1,2-diaminobenzene, 1,3-diaminobenzene, and 1,4-diaminobenzene.

[0547] The relevant structural units are dicarboxylic acids derived from amino acids (structures 32+33) by substituting COOH with NH2, and those more preferably used as structural unit X are malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, phthalic acid, terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, and 2,3 or 4-carboxyphenylacetic acid.

[0548] In further embodiments, the amino acid is preferably an amino acid containing a polyether as a backbone. Preferably, such a polyether is polyethylene glycol and consists of up to 30 monomer units. Preferably, amino acids containing such a polyether exhibit increased hydrophilicity compared to amino acids without such a polyether. Component X, ultimately linker group [X] a When incorporated, this typically results in increased hydrophilicity. Preferred embodiments of this type of amino acid are described below, and such amino acids consist of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 ethylene oxide moieties:

[0549] [ka]

[0550] It is acknowledged that this may include. Preferred ethylene glycols containing amino acids are Ttds(N-(3-{2-[2-[2-(3-amino-propoxy)-ethoxy]-ethoxy}-propyl)-succinic acid) and O2Oc([2-(2-(2-amino-ethoxy)-ethoxy]-acetic acid), whose formulas are as follows:

[0551] [ka]

[0552] In preferred embodiments, the linker comprises an oligomer or monomer of a single specific amino acid selected from the group consisting of Ttds, O2Oc, Apac, Gly, Bal, Gab, Mamb, Pamb, Ppac, 4Amc, Inp, Sni, Rni, Nmg, Cmp, PEG6, PEG12, and PEG-amino acids, and more preferably the linker is a monomer.

[0553] In another preferred embodiment, the linker comprises one component X2 selected from the group of Ttds, O2Oc, Apac, Gly, Bal, Gab, Mamb Pamb, PEG6, PEG12, and PEG-amino acids, and a second component X1 that is directly bonded to the amino-nitrogen of X2 and directly attached to the chelating agent by a linkage selected from the group consisting of amide linkage, urea linkage, carbamate linkage, ester linkage, ether linkage, thioether linkage, sulfonamide, triazole, and disulfide linkage. In this case, X1 acts as an adapter mediating the linkage of different types of attached functional groups provided to the nitrogen atom of amino acid X2 by the chelating agent, in the sense that X1 provides complementary functional groups related to the linkage of the chelating agent.

[0554] However, the use of linkers is usually purposeful. In some situations, it is necessary to leave a larger portion separate from the bioactive molecule in order to maintain high bioactivity. In other situations, the introduction of a linker opens up the opportunity to modify the physicochemical properties of the molecule by introducing polarity or multiple charges. In certain situations, it may be a strength and achievement if a chelating agent can be combined with a bioactive compound without the need for such a linker. In particular, in the compounds of the present invention, where the chelating agent is attached to Yc of formula (X) linking the S atoms of Xaa1 and Xaa7 under the formation of two thioether linkages, excellent performance is typically achieved without the use of any dedicated linker.

[0555] In some embodiments, the compound of the present invention includes a chelating agent. Preferably, the chelating agent is part of the compound of the present invention, thereby being direct or indirect, such as by a linker attached to the compound of the present invention. Preferred chelating agents are those that form a metal chelate comprising at least one radiometal. The at least one radiometal is preferably useful in diagnostic and / or therapeutic and / or diagnostic-therapeutic use, or more preferably useful or suitable for imaging and / or radiotherapy.

[0564] [ka]

[0565] [ka]

[0566] In preferred embodiments, the metal chelating agent is selected from the group consisting of DOTA, DOTAGA, NOTA, NODAGA, NODA-MPAA, HBED, CB-TE2A, DFO, THP, N4, and their analogues.

[0567] In a more preferred embodiment, the metal chelating agent is selected from the group consisting of DOTA, DOTAGA, NOTA, N4Ac, and NODAGA, as well as their analogues. Those skilled in the art will recognize that chelating agents can be used in principle regardless of whether the compounds of the present invention are used or appropriate for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. Such principles are outlined, in particular, in International Publication No. 2009 / 109332A1.

[0568] Furthermore, those skilled in the art will know that, unless otherwise stated, the presence of a chelating agent in the compounds of the present invention means that the chelating agent is an arbitrary metal complex partner, i.e., in principle, the chelating agent... It is recognized that this includes the possibility of complexing with any metal that can be complexed. The chelating agents explicitly described in the compounds of the present invention or the general term chelating agents related to the compounds of the present invention refer to chelating agents that are not thus complexed, or chelating agents to which any metal complex partner is bound, and the metal complex partner is any radioactive or non-radioactive metal complex partner. Preferably, the metal chelating agent complex, i.e., the chelating agent to which the metal complex partner is bound, is a stable metal chelating agent complex.

[0569] Non-radioactive metal chelating complexes have several applications, for example, for evaluating properties such as stability or activity that are difficult to determine in other respects. In one aspect, cold variants of radioactive versions of metal complex partners (e.g., non-radioactive gallium, lutetium, or indium complexes described in the examples) can act as substitutes for radioactive compounds. Furthermore, they are valuable tools for identifying metabolites in vitro or in vivo, as well as for evaluating the toxic properties of the compounds of the present invention. In addition, metal chelating complexes can be used in binding assays that utilize the fluorescence properties of several metal complexes having different ligands (e.g., europium salts).

[0570] Chelating agents can be synthesized or commercially available using a wide variety of (possibly already activated) groups for conjugation to peptides or amino acids. Direct conjugation of each compound of the present invention to amino nitrogen with a chelating agent is fully possible for chelating agents selected from the group consisting of DOTA, DOTAGA, NOTA, NODAGA, NODA-MPAA, HBED, TETA, CB-TE2A, DTPA, DFO, DATA, sarcofazine, N4, MAG3, and Hynic, preferably DOTA, DOTAGA, NOTA, NODAGA, NODA-MPAA, CB-TE2A, and N4. In this regard, the preferred linkage is an amide linkage.

[0571] Functional groups in chelating agents, which are ideal precursors for the direct conjugation of chelating agents to amino nitrogen, are known to those skilled in the art and include, but are not limited to, carboxylic acids, activated carboxylic acids, for example, activated esters, for example, NHS esters, pentafluorophenol esters, HOBt esters and HOAt esters, and isothiocyanates.

[0572] Functional groups in chelating agents, which are ideal precursors for the direct conjugation of chelating agent peptides to the carboxyl group, are known to those skilled in the art and include, but are not limited to, alkylamino and arylamino nitrogen groups. Each chelating agent reagent is for several commercially available chelating agents, e.g., for DOTAs having either alkylamino or arylamino nitrogen.

[0573] It will be recognized by those skilled in the art that the radionuclides to be bound to or attached to the compounds of the present invention are selected in consideration of the disease to be treated and / or diagnosed, and / or the specific characteristics of the population and group of patients to be treated and / or diagnosed, respectively.

[0574] In embodiments of this invention, radioactive nuclides are also called radionuclides. Radioactive decay is the process by which the nucleus of an unstable atom loses energy by emitting ionizing particles (ionizing radiation). There are various types of radioactive decay. Decay, or energy loss, occurs when an atom with one type of nucleus, called a parent radioactive nuclide, is transformed into an atom with a different state of nucleus, or into a different nucleus containing different numbers of protons and neutrons. All of these products are called daughter nuclides. In some decays, the parent and daughter are different chemical elements, and therefore the decay process results in nuclear transmutation (the creation of atoms of new elements). For example, radioactive decay can be alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma decay. Alpha decay occurs when a nucleus emits an alpha particle (helium nucleus). This is the most common process of emitting a nucleon, but in rare types of decay, the nucleus emits a proton or a specific nucleus of another element (in a process called cluster decay). Beta decay is a process in which a proton is transformed into a neutron or vice versa, in which the nucleus transforms into an electron (β - -decay) or positron (β) +This occurs when a nucleus undergoes a decay (gamma decay) and emits a type of neutrino. In contrast, there are radioactive decay processes that do not produce mutations. The energy of an excited nucleus is either emitted as gamma rays in gamma decay, or used to emit orbital electrons through interaction with the excited nucleus in a process called internal conversion, or used to absorb inner atomic electrons from electron shells, thereby causing the change of nuclear protons to neutrons to trigger the emission of electron neutrinos in a process called electron capture (EC), or to be emitted without changing the number of protons and neutrons in a process called isomer transition (IT). Another form of radioactive decay, spontaneous fission (SF), is found only in very heavy chemical elements and results in the spontaneous disintegration of smaller nuclei and a few isolated nuclear particles.

[0615] In one embodiment, the compound of the present invention exists as a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. The "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" of the compounds of the present invention are preferably acidic or basic salts that are generally considered in the art to be suitable for use in contact with human or animal tissue without excessive toxicity or carcinogenicity, preferably without irritation, allergic reactions, or other problems or complications. Such salts include mineral and organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines, as well as alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids. The compounds of the present invention can also form internal salts that are pharmaceutically acceptable salts.

[0616] Appropriate pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, hydrochloric acid, phosphoric acid, bromate, malic acid, glycolic acid, fumaric acid, sulfuric acid, sulfamic acid, sulfanilic acid, formic acid, toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, ethanedisulfonic acid, 2-hydroxyethylsulfonic acid, nitric acid, benzoic acid, 2-acetoxybenzoic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, lactic acid, stearic acid, salicylic acid, glutamic acid, ascorbic acid, pamoic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, propionic acid, hydroxymaleic acid, hydroiodic acid, phenylacetic acid, alkanic acid, e.g., acetic acid, HOOC-(CH2) n Examples include salts of acids such as -COOH (where n is any integer from 0 to 4, i.e., 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4). Similarly, pharmaceutically acceptable cations include, but are not limited to, sodium, potassium, calcium, aluminum, lithium, and ammonium. Those skilled in the art will recognize further pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds provided herein. In general, pharmaceutically acceptable acid or base salts can be synthesized from parent compounds containing a basic or acidic moiety by any conventional chemical method. Briefly, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acid or free base form of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of a suitable base or acid in water or an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two. Generally, the use of non-aqueous media such as ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile is preferred.

[0617] The "pharmaceutically acceptable solvate" of the compound of the present invention is preferably a solvate of the compound of the present invention formed by the association of one or more solvent molecules with one or more molecules of the compound of the present invention. Preferably, the solvent is one that is generally considered in the art to be suitable for use in contact with human or animal tissue without excessive toxicity or carcinogenicity, preferably without irritation, allergic reactions, or other problems or complications. Such solvents include organic solvents such as alcohols, ethers, esters, and amines.

[0618] The "hydrates" of the compounds of the present invention are formed by the association of one or more water molecules with one or more molecules of the compounds of the present invention. Such hydrates include, but are not limited to, hemihydrates, monohydrates, dihydrates, trihydrates, and tetrahydrates. Regardless of the hydrate composition, all hydrates are generally considered pharmaceutically acceptable.

[0619] The compounds of the present invention have high binding affinity to FAP and high inhibitory activity against FAP. Due to this high binding affinity, the compounds of the present invention are effective, useful, and / or suitable as targeting agents and, when conjugated to another part, as targeting parts. Preferably in this specification, the targeting agent is a drug that interacts with the target molecule, which is FAP in this case. Accordingly, with respect to cells and tissues targeted by the compounds of the present invention, any cells and tissues expressing FAP can be targeted or made to target.

[0620] In one embodiment, the compound interacts with fibroblast-activating protein (FAP), preferably human FAP having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 or a homologue thereof, wherein the homologue's amino acid sequence has FAP identity that is at least 85% of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1. In a preferred embodiment, the identity is 90%, preferably 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99%.

[0621] The identity between two nucleic acid molecules can be determined in a manner known to those skilled in the art. More specifically, a sequence comparison algorithm can be used to calculate the sequence homology percentage of a test sequence(s) to a reference sequence based on specified program parameters. The test sequence is preferably a sequence or protein or polypeptide that is said to be identical to, or to be tested for, whether it is identical to, and if so, to what extent it is identical to, a different protein or polypeptide, thereby also being called a reference sequence, preferably a wild-type protein or polypeptide, more preferably human FAP of SEQ ID NO: 1.

[0622] The optimal alignment of sequences for comparison can be determined, for example, by the local homology algorithm of Smith & Waterman (Smith et al., Advances in Applied Mathematics, 1981, Vol. 2: p. 482) and the Needleman algorithm. This can be done by the homology alignment algorithm of Wunsch (Needleman et al., J Mol Biol, 1970, Vol. 48: p. 443), by the similarity search of Pearson & Lipman (Pearson et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 1988, Vol. 85: p. 24444), by computerized implementation of these algorithms (GAP, BESTFIT, FASTA, and TFASTA from the Wisconsin Genetics software package, Genetics Computer Group, 575 Science Dr., Madison, Wis.), or by visual inspection.

[0623] One example of a suitable algorithm for determining sequence identity percentage is the algorithm used in the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (hereinafter referred to as "BLAST"). See, for example, Altschul et al., 1990 (Altschul et al., J Mol Biol, 1990, vol. 215: p. 403) and Altschul et al., 1997 (Altschul et al., Nucleic Acids Res, 1997, vol. 25: p. 3389). Software for performing BLAST analysis is publicly available through the National Center for Biotechnology Information (hereinafter referred to as "NCBI"). Software available from NCBI, for example, BLASTN (for nucleotide sequences) The default parameters used when determining sequence identity using BLASTP (for amino acid sequences) are described in McGinnis et al. (McGinnis et al., Nucleic Acids Res, 2004, Vol. 32:W20).

[0625] The methods for treating diseases disclosed herein include treatment of tumors and cancers, and can be used as a first therapy, or as a second, third, fourth, or final therapy. Combining the compounds of the present invention with further therapeutic methods is also within the scope of the invention. It is well known to those skilled in the art that the exact intent of treatment, including curative, adjuvant, neoadjuvant, therapeutic, or palliative treatment, depends on the type, location, and stage of the tumor, as well as the patient's general health.

[0632] The compounds disclosed herein and claimed may also be used in combination with any of the following treatments: Poly(ADP) is a class of chemotherapy agents that target cancers with DNA damage repair deficiencies. Therapies combined with ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (Yuan et al., Expert Opin Ther Pat, 2017, 27:363). Examples of such PARP inhibitors include, but are not limited to, olaparib, rupacarib, veraparib, niraparib, talazoparib, pamiparib, iniparib, E7449, and A-966492.

[0633] For example, therapies combining inhibitors of signaling pathways and mechanisms that lead to the repair of single- and double-strand breaks in DNA, such as nuclear factor-kappa B signaling (Pilie et al., Nat Rev Clin Oncol, 2019, 16:81; Zhang et al., Chin J Cancer, 2012, 31:359). Such inhibitors include, but are not limited to, those of ATM and ATR kinases, checkpoint kinases 1 and 2, DNA-dependent protein kinases, and WEE1 kinase (Pilie et al., Nat Rev Clin Oncol, 2019, 16:81).

[0634] Immunomodulators (Khalil et al., Nat Rev Clin Oncol, 2016, 13:394), cancer vaccines (Hollingsworth et al., NPJ Vaccines, 2019, 4:7), immune checkpoint inhibitors (e.g., PD-1, PD-L1, CTLA-4 inhibitors) (Wei et al., Cancer Discov, 2018, 8:1069), cyclin D kinase 4 / 6 inhibitors (Goel et al., Trends Cell Biol, 2018, 28:911), antibodies that can bind to tumor cells and / or metastases and induce antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) (Kellner et al., Transfus Med Hemother, 2017, 44:327), T cell or NK cell engagers (e.g., bispecific antibodies) (Yu et al., J Cancer Res Clin Therapies that combine therapies using expanded autologous or allogeneic immune cells (e.g., chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells) (Khalil et al., Nat Rev Clin Oncol, 2016, 13:394) with cell therapy. Immune checkpoint inhibitors include, but are not limited to, nivolumab, ipilimumab, pembrolizumab, atezolizumab, avelumab, durvalumab, and cemiplimab.

[0635] According to the present invention, the compound can be administered before, simultaneously with, or after other anticancer compounds. The administration schedule may include administering different drugs in an alternating manner. In other embodiments, the compound may be delivered before and between, between and after, or before and after, treatment using other therapies. In some cases, the compound is administered more than 24 hours before the administration of other antiproliferative treatments. In other embodiments, the compound may be administered to a subject in combination with more than one antiproliferative therapy. For example, a subject may receive the compound of the present invention in combination with both surgery and at least one other antiproliferative compound. Alternatively, the compound may be administered in combination with more than one anticancer drug.

[0636] In one embodiment, the compounds of the present invention are used to detect cells and tissues that overexpress FAP, thereby achieving such detection by conjugating a detectable label, preferably a detectable radionuclide, to the compounds of the present invention. In a preferred embodiment, the cells and tissues to be detected are diseased cells and tissues, and / or are one or the sole cause of the disease and / or symptoms of the disease, or are part of the pathology underlying the disease. In a further preferred embodiment, the diseased cells and tissues are those that cause and / or are part of a tumor adaptation (e.g., neoplasms, tumors, and cancer) or a non-tumor adaptation (e.g., inflammatory diseases, cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune diseases, and fibrotic diseases).

[0637] In another embodiment, the compounds of the present invention are used to treat cells and tissues that overexpress FAP. In a preferred embodiment, the cells and tissues to be treated are diseased cells and tissues, and / or are one or the sole cause of the disease and / or symptoms of the disease, or are part of the pathology underlying the disease. In a further preferred embodiment, the diseased cells and tissues are causing and / or part of a tumor adaptation (e.g., neoplasms, tumors, and cancer), and therapeutic activity is achieved by conjugating a therapeutically active effector, preferably a therapeutically active radionuclide, to the compounds of the present invention. In a further preferred embodiment, the diseased cells and tissues are causing and / or part of a non-tumor adaptation (e.g., inflammatory diseases, cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune diseases, and fibrotic diseases), and therapeutic activity is achieved by inhibiting the enzymatic activity of FAP.

[0638] In further embodiments, particularly when the disease is a non-tumor disease or non-tumor indication (e.g., inflammatory diseases, cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune diseases, and fibrotic diseases), the compounds of the present invention are administered in a therapeutically effective dose; preferably, the compounds of the present invention do not contain therapeutically active radioisotopes. The effective dose is a dose of the compound sufficient to produce a therapeutically or medically desirable result or effect in the subject to which the compound is administered. The effective dose will vary depending on the specific condition being treated, the age and physical condition of the subject being treated, the severity of the condition, the duration of treatment, the nature of concurrent or concomitant therapies (if any), the specific route of administration, and factors within the scope of the knowledge and expertise of the healthcare professional. For example, in relation to a method directed toward treating a subject having a condition characterized by abnormal cell proliferation, the effective dose for inhibiting proliferation would be a dose sufficient to reduce or completely halt abnormal cell proliferation in order to slow or stop the development or progression of cell masses such as tumors. As used in these embodiments, “inhibit” encompasses all of the above.

[0639] In other embodiments, the therapeutically effective dose would be the amount necessary to prolong the dormancy of micrometastases or to stabilize residual primary tumor cells after surgery or drug therapy. Generally, when using non-conjugated compounds that do not contain therapeutically active radionuclides, the effective therapeutic dose varies depending on the age, condition, and sex of the subject, as well as the nature and severity of the disease in the subject, all of which can be determined by a person skilled in the art. The dosage may be adjusted by the individual physician or veterinarian, particularly in the event of complications. The effective therapeutic dose is typically, but is not limited to, amounts ranging from 0.1 μg / kg to about 2000 mg / kg, or 1.0 μg / kg to about 1000 mg / kg, or about 0.1 mg / kg to about 500 mg / kg, or about 1.0 mg / kg to about 100 mg / kg, in one or more doses per day over one or more days. If necessary, the effective daily dose of the active compound may be administered as two, three, four, five, six, or more lower doses, for example, separately administered at appropriate intervals throughout the day, in unit dosage forms as needed. In some embodiments, the compound is administered for longer than 7 days, longer than 10 days, longer than 14 days, and longer than 20 days. In yet other embodiments, the compound is administered over several weeks or months. In yet another embodiment, the compound is delivered every other day. For example, the drug is delivered every two days, or every three days, or every four days, or every five days, or every six days, or weekly, or monthly.

[0640] In preferred embodiments, the compounds of the present invention are for use in the treatment and / or prevention of diseases, thereby such treatment being radionuclide therapy. Preferably, radionuclide therapy utilizes or is based on different forms of radiation emitted by radionuclides. Such radiation may include, for example, photon radiation, but is not limited to beta radiation. - The radiation may be any one of the following: radiation of particles and electrons including Auger electrons, proton radiation, neutron radiation, positron radiation, alpha particle radiation, or an ion beam. Depending on the type of radiation, radionuclide therapy can be distinguished, for example, as photon-based radionuclide therapy, electron-based radionuclide therapy, proton-based radionuclide therapy, neutron-based radionuclide therapy, positron-based radionuclide therapy, alpha-particle-based radionuclide therapy, or ion-beam-based radionuclide therapy. All of these forms of radionuclide therapy are encompassed by the present invention, and all of these forms of radionuclide therapy can be realized by the compounds of the present invention, preferably under the condition that the radionuclides attached to the compounds of the present invention provide this type of radiation, more preferably as effectors.

[0641] Radionuclide therapy preferably works by damaging the DNA of cells. Damage is caused by photons, electrons, protons, neutrons, positrons, alpha particles, or ion beams that directly or indirectly ionize the atoms that make up the DNA strands. Indirect ionization occurs as a result of the ionization of water, damaging the DNA after forming free radicals, notably hydroxyl radicals.

[0642] In the most common forms of radionuclide therapy, much of the effect of radiation is due to free radicals. Since cells have mechanisms to repair DNA damage, cutting DNA on both strands proves to be the most significant technique in altering cellular properties. Cancer cells are generally undifferentiated and stem cell-like, so they replicate more and have a reduced ability to repair non-lethal damage compared to many healthy differentiated cells. DNA damage is inherited through cell division, causing the damage to accumulate in cancer cells, leading to their death or slower replication.

[0643] Oxygen is a powerful radiosensitizer, increasing the effectiveness of a given dose of radiation by forming DNA-damaging free radicals. Therefore, the use of hyperbaric oxygen tanks, blood substitutes that carry large amounts of oxygen, hypoxic cytoradiosensitizers such as misonidazole and metronidazole, and hypoxic cytotoxins such as tirapazamine can be applied.

[0644] Other factors to consider when selecting the radioactive dose include whether the patient is receiving chemotherapy, whether radiotherapy is administered before or after surgery, and the degree of surgical success.

[0645] The total radioactive dose can be divided, i.e., spread over time as one or more treatments, for several important reasons. Dividing gives normal cells time to recover, while tumor cells generally have a lower efficiency of repair between divided doses. Dividing also allows tumor cells that were in a relatively radioresistant phase of the cell cycle during a single treatment to cycle back into the sensitive phase before the next divided dose is administered. Similarly, tumor cells that were chronically or acutely hypoxic and therefore more radioresistant may reoxidize between divided doses, improving tumor cell killing.

[0646] It is generally known that different cancers respond differentially to radiotherapy. The response of cancer to radiation is described by its radiosensitivity. Highly radiosensitive cancer cells are rapidly killed by moderate doses of radiation. These include leukemia, mostly lymphoma, and germ cell tumors.

[0647] To some extent, it is important to distinguish the radiosensitivity of a particular tumor, which is a measured value in laboratory tests, from the "cureability" of the cancer based on the internally delivered dose of radioactive material in actual clinical practice. For example, leukemia is generally not curable with radiotherapy because it is scattered throughout the body. Lymphoma may be curable with radiation if it is localized to one area of ​​the body. Similarly, many common moderately radioresponsive tumors can be treated with a curative dose of radioactive material if they are in the early stages. This is, for example, non-melanoma skin cancer, head and neck cancer. This applies to cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, cervical cancer, anal cancer, and prostate cancer.

[0648] The response of a tumor to radiotherapy is also related to its size. For complex reasons, very large tumors respond less to radiation than smaller tumors or microscopic lesions. Various strategies are used to overcome this effect. The most common technique is surgical excision before radiotherapy. This is most commonly seen in the treatment of breast cancer using broad mastectomy or mastectomy, followed by adjuvant radiotherapy. Another method is to shrink the tumor using neoadjuvant chemotherapy before radionuclide therapy. A third technique is to enhance the radiosensitivity of the cancer by administering certain drugs during the course of radiotherapy. Examples of radiosensitizers, but not limited to, include cisplatin, nimorazole, and cetuximab.

[0649] Intraoperative radiotherapy is a specialized type of radiotherapy delivered immediately after the surgical removal of cancer. This method has been used in breast cancer (targeted intraoperative radiotherapy), brain tumors, and rectal cancer.

[0650] Radionuclide therapy is painless in itself. Many low-dose palliative treatments have little or no effect. Higher-dose treatments can cause side effects that change during treatment (acute side effects), after treatment within months or years (long-term side effects), or after retreatment (cumulative side effects). The nature, severity, and persistence of side effects depend on the organ being irradiated, the treatment itself (type of radionuclide, dose, fractionation, concurrent chemotherapy), and the patient.

[0651] It is within the scope of the present invention that each and any of the above strategies can be realized insofar as the methods for treating the diseases of the present invention are known in the art as such and constitute further embodiments of the present invention.

[0652] Furthermore, the compounds of the present invention may also be used in methods for the diagnosis of diseases disclosed herein. Such methods preferably include the step of administering a diagnostically effective amount of the compounds of the present invention to a subject requiring it.

[0653] According to the present invention, the imaging method is selected from the group consisting of scintigraphy, single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), and positron emission (PET). In preferred embodiments of the present invention, compounds according to the present invention comprising a chelating agent derived from the N4 chelating agent family, more preferably a chelating agent for Tc radionuclides, are particularly suitable for use in methods and procedures using SPECT. In these embodiments, the chelating agent derived from the N4 chelating agent family is N4Ac.

[0654] In preferred embodiments of the present invention, compounds according to the present invention that include a NODAGA chelating agent, and more preferably chelate Ga radionuclides, are particularly suitable for use in methods and procedures using PET.

[0655] Scintigraphy is a form of diagnostic test or method used in nuclear medicine in which a radiopharmaceutical is internalized by cells, tissues, and / or organs, preferably internalized in vivo, and the radiation emitted by the internalized radiopharmaceutical is captured by an external detector (gamma camera) to form and display a two-dimensional image. In contrast, SPECT and PET form and display three-dimensional images. For this reason, SPECT and PET are classified as separate techniques from scintigraphy, although they also use a gamma camera to detect internal radiation. Scintigraphy differs from diagnostic X-rays, in which external radiation passes through the body to form an image.

[0656] Single-photon emission tomography (SPECT) scanning is a type of nuclear imaging technique that uses gamma rays. They are very similar to conventional nuclear medicine two-dimensional imaging that uses a gamma camera. Before a SPECT scan, the patient is injected with radiolabeled chemi-emitting gamma rays that can be detected by the scanner. A computer collects information from the gamma camera and converts it into two-dimensional cross-sections. These cross-sections can be added together to reconstruct a three-dimensional image of an organ or tissue. SPECT involves detecting gamma rays emitted by radionuclides provided by radiolabeled chemicals, both individually and sequentially. To acquire SPECT images, the gamma camera is rotated around the patient. Projection images are acquired at predetermined points during rotation, typically every 3–6°. Often, a full 360° rotation is used to obtain optimal reconstruction. The time taken to acquire each projection image also varies, but is typically 15–20 seconds. This gives a total scanning time of 15–20 minutes. Multi-head gamma cameras are faster. SPECT acquisition is very similar to 2D gamma camera imaging, so the same radiopharmaceuticals can be used.

[0657] Positron emission tomography (PET) is a non-invasive diagnostic imaging technique for measuring the biochemical state or metabolic activity of cells in the human body. PET is unique because it produces images of the fundamental biochemistry or function within the body. Traditional diagnostic techniques such as X-rays, CT scans, or MRI produce images of the body's biological structures or structures. The premise of these techniques is that they allow us to see changes in structures or biological structures associated with disease. Biochemical processes are also altered by disease and can occur before overall changes in biological structures. PET is an imaging technique that can visualize some of these early biochemical changes. A PET scanner relies on radiation emitted from the patient to create images. Each patient is given a small amount of a radiopharmaceutical that is very similar to a natural substance used by the body or that specifically binds to a receptor or molecular structure. As the radioactive isotope undergoes positron emission decay (also known as beta-plus decay), it emits a positron, the antiparticle counterpart of the electron. After traveling up to a few millimeters, a positron encounters an electron, annihilates, and travels in the opposite direction, producing a pair of annihilation (gamma) photons. These are detected when they reach the scintillation material in the scanning device, producing a burst of light which is detected by a photomultiplier tube or silicon avalanche photodiode. This technique relies on the simultaneous or coincident detection of photon pairs. Photons that do not arrive as a pair, i.e., within a few nanoseconds, are ignored. All matches are forwarded to an image processing unit, where the final image data is produced using an image reconstruction procedure.

[0658] SPECT / CT and PET / CT are combinations of SPECT and PET with computed tomography (CT). A key benefit of combining these modalities is improved reliability and accuracy for the reader. With traditional PET and SPECT, the limited number of photons emitted from the abnormal area result in a very low level of background that is difficult to anatomically localize to that area. The addition of CT helps determine the location of the abnormal area from an anatomical perspective and classify its likelihood of representing a disease.

[0659] It is within the scope of the present invention that each and any of the above strategies can be realized insofar as the methods for diagnosing diseases of the present invention are known in the art as such and constitute further embodiments of the present invention.

[0660] The compounds of the present invention are useful for stratifying patients, that is, for creating subsets within a patient population that provide detailed information about how patients respond to a given drug. Stratification involves identifying a subset of the population most likely to respond to a novel therapy. This could be a crucial component in converting clinical trials resulting from negative or neutral outcomes into those with positive outcomes.

[0661] Stratification involves identifying patient groups that share “biological” characteristics to select the optimal patient management and achieve the best possible outcomes with respect to risk assessment, risk prevention, and achieving optimal treatment outcomes.

[0662] The compounds of the present invention can be used to assess or detect, as quickly as possible, a specific disease (diagnostic use), the risk of developing the disease (susceptibility / risk use), and the progression of the disease, including painless resistance to invasiveness (prognostic diagnostic use), and can be used to predict the response and toxicity to a given treatment (predictive use).

[0663] Furthermore, the use of the compounds of the present invention in diagnostic and therapeutic methods also falls within the scope of the present invention. The concept of diagnostic and therapeutic involves combining a therapeutic agent with a corresponding diagnostic test that can increase the clinical use of the therapeutic agent. The concept of diagnostic and therapeutic is becoming increasingly appealing and is widely considered key to improving the efficiency of drug treatment by helping physicians identify patients who would benefit from a given therapy and thus avoid unnecessary treatments.

[0664] The concept of diagnostic therapy involves combining a therapeutic agent with diagnostic tests that allow a physician to identify patients who would benefit most from a given therapy. In embodiments, and as is preferably used herein, the compounds of the present invention are also used for the diagnosis of a patient, i.e., for the identification and localization of the primary tumor and potential local and distant metastases. Furthermore, tumor volume can be determined, in particular, using a three-dimensional diagnostic modality such as SPECT or PET. Only patients with FAP-positive tumor masses and therefore who would benefit from a given therapy are selected for a particular therapy, thus avoiding unnecessary procedures. Preferably, such a therapy is an FAP-targeted therapy using the compounds of the present invention. In one particular embodiment, chemically identical tumor-targeted diagnostics, preferably imaging diagnostics for scintigraphy, PET or SPECT, and radiotherapy are applied. Such compounds differ only in their radionuclides and are therefore usually very similar, even if not identical in their pharmacokinetic profiles. This can be achieved using chelating agents and diagnostic or therapeutic radiometals. Alternatively, this can be achieved using radiolabeling with precursors for radiolabeling and radionuclides for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. In one embodiment, diagnostic imaging is preferably used by quantifying the radiation of the diagnostic radionuclide, followed by dosimetry known to those skilled in the art, and prediction of drug concentrations in the tumor compared to vulnerable organs. Thus, truly personalized drug therapy for the patient is achieved.

[0665] In embodiments, and as is also preferred herein, the diagnostic and therapeutic method is implemented using only one diagnostically and therapeutically active compound, such as a compound of the present invention labeled with a radionuclide that emits diagnostically detectable radiation (e.g., positrons or gamma rays) and therapeutically effective radiation (e.g., electrons or alpha particles).

[0666] The present invention also aims to provide a method for intraoperatively identifying / disclosing diseased tissue expressing FAP in a subject. Such a method utilizes the compounds of the present invention, thereby preferably comprising a diagnostically active agent as an effector.

[0667] According to further embodiments of the present invention, the compounds of the present invention, in particular when complexed with radionuclides, are used in radiotherapy, including surgical treatment as a first method for treating many isolated solid cancers, radiotherapy, alkylating agents, antimetabolites, and radioactive materials, including the use of ionizing radiation in attempts to cure or improve cancer symptoms using sealed internal or external light sources in the form of brachytherapy. It can be used as an adjuvant or accessory to any other oncological treatment, including chemotherapy such as anthracyclines, plant alkaloids, topoisomerase inhibitors, and other antitumor agents; hormonal treatments that modulate the behavior of tumor cells without directly attacking them; targeted agents that directly target molecular abnormalities in certain types of cancer, including monoclonal antibodies and tyrosine kinase inhibitors; angiogenesis inhibitors; immunotherapy; cancer vaccination; palliative care, including activities to alleviate physical, emotional, mental, and psychosocial distress to improve the quality of life of patients; and alternative treatments, including a diverse group of products that are not part of the healthcare system, practices, and conventional medicines.

[0668] In embodiments of the method of the present invention, the subject is a patient. In embodiments, the patient is a subject who has been diagnosed with a disease, is suspected of having a disease, has a disease, or is at risk of developing a disease, thereby the disease being one of the diseases described herein, preferably a disease including FAP.

[0669] The doses used in the implementation of the treatment and diagnostic methods, each containing a radionuclide, or more specifically, a compound of the present invention conjugated to or part thereof, will vary depending, for example, on the specific condition to be treated, such as the known radiosensitivity of the tumor type, the tumor volume, and the desired therapy. Generally, the dose is calculated based on the radioactivity distribution to the respective organ and the observed target uptake. The gamma-emitting complex may be administered once or several times for diagnostic imaging. In animals, the indicated dose range is, for example, 1 to 200 MBq. 111 In or 89 The compound of the present invention may be complexed with Zr at a dose of 0.1 μg / kg to 5 mg / kg. The β-releasing complex of the compound of the present invention can be administered at several time points, for example, over a period of 1 to 3 weeks or longer. In animals, the indicated dose range is, for example, 1 to 200 MBq. 90 Y or 177 The compound of the present invention may be complexed with Lu at a dose of 0.1 μg / kg to 5 mg / kg. In larger animals, such as humans, the indicated dose range is, for example, 10 to 400 MBq. 111 In or 89 The compound of the present invention is complexed with Zr at a dose of 0.1 to 100 μg / kg. In larger animals, such as humans, the indicated dose range is, for example, 10 to 5000 MBq. 90 Y or 177 The compound of the present invention is complexed with Lu and is present in a concentration of 0.1 to 100 μg / kg.

[0670] In a further embodiment, the present invention relates particularly to compositions and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds of the present invention. The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention comprises at least one compound of the present invention and, optionally, one or more carriers, excipients, and / or adjuvants.

Furthermore, although not essential, one or more other active ingredients may be included in the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention.

[0671] The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can be formulated for any suitable route of administration, including, for example, topical administration such as transdermal or ocular, oral, buccal, nasal, vaginal, rectal, or parenteral administration. As used herein, the term “parenteral” includes subcutaneous, intradermal, intravascular (such as intravenous), intramuscular, intrathecal, and intraperitoneal injections, as well as any similar injection or infusion techniques. The preferred route of administration is intravenous administration.

[0672] In embodiments of the present invention, the compounds of the present invention, including radionuclides, are administered by any conventional route, particularly intravenously, for example, in the form of an injectable solution or suspension. The compounds of the present invention may be administered, advantageously, by infusion, for example, by an infusion lasting 30 to 60 minutes.

[0673] Depending on the location of the tumor, the compound of the present invention can be administered as close to the tumor site as possible, for example, using a catheter. Such administration can be carried out directly into the tumor tissue, the surrounding tissue, or into afferent blood vessels. The compound of the present invention can also be administered repeatedly in doses, preferably in divided doses.

[0674] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention comprises a stabilizer, for example, a free radical scavenger that inhibits the autoradiolysis of the compound of the present invention. Suitable stabilizers include, for example, serum albumin, ascorbic acid, retinol, gentisic acid or its derivatives, or preferably, commercially available amino acid infusion solutions used for parenteral protein delivery, such as Proteinsteril® KE Nephro, which do not contain electrolytes and glucose. Ascorbic acid and gentisic acid are preferred.

[0675] The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention may also contain further additives, such as agents for adjusting the pH to 7.2-7.4, for example, sodium acetate or ammonium acetate or Na2HPO4. Preferably, a stabilizer is added to the non-radioactive compound of the present invention, and the introduction of a radionuclide, for example, complexation with a radionuclide, is carried out in the presence of the stabilizer at room temperature, or preferably at a temperature of 40-120°C. Complexation can be conveniently carried out under air-free conditions, for example, under N2 or Ar. Further stabilizers may be added to the composition after complexation.

[0676] In particular, when the effector is a radionuclide, the excretion of the compounds of the present invention essentially occurs via the kidneys. Further protection of the kidneys from radioactive accumulation can be achieved, in particular when the effector is a radionuclide, by administering lysine or arginine or an amino acid solution having a high content of lysine and / or arginine, such as commercially available amino acid solutions like Synthamin®-14 or -10, before or simultaneously with the injection of the compounds of the present invention. Renal protection can also be achieved by administering a plasma expander, such as gerofsin, instead of or in addition to amino acid infusion. Renal protection can also be achieved by administering a diuretic that provides a means of forced diuresis that increases the rate of urination. Such diuretics include high-ceiling loop diuretics, thiazides, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, potassium-sparing diuretics, calcium-sparing diuretics, osmotic diuretics, and low-ceiling diuretics. The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention may contain, in addition to the compounds of the present invention, at least one further compound intended for or suitable for kidney protection, preferably kidney protection in the subject to whom the compounds of the present invention are administered.

[0677] Those skilled in the art will understand that the compounds of the present invention are disclosed herein for use in various ways. It will further understand that the compositions and pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can be used equally in the aforementioned ways. It will also be understood that the compositions and pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention are disclosed herein for use in various ways. Similarly, those skilled in the art will understand that the compounds of the present invention can be used equally in the aforementioned ways.

[0678] Those skilled in the art will recognize that the compositions and pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention contain one or more further compounds in addition to the compounds of the present invention. It will be understood that, to the extent disclosed herein as being part of a method of the present invention, one or more such further compounds may be administered separately from the compound of the present invention to the subject to exposure or to the subject of the method of the present invention. Such administration of one or more further compounds may be carried out before, simultaneously with, or after, the administration of the compound of the present invention. It will also be recognized by those skilled in the art that, in the method of the present invention, one or more further compounds may be administered separately from the compound of the present invention to the subject. Such administration of one or more further compounds may be carried out before, simultaneously with, or after, the administration of the compound of the present invention.

[0679] It is within the scope of the present invention that more than one form of the compound of the present invention may be contained in the composition of the present invention and / or the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention. It is also within the scope of the present invention that more than one form of the compound of the present invention may be used, preferably administered, in the method of the present invention.

[0680] It will be recognized that the compositions of the present invention and the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can be manufactured in the conventional manner. Radiopharmaceuticals have radioactivity that decreases over time as a result of radioactive decay. The physical half-life of radionuclides is often short for radiopharmaceutical diagnostics. In these cases, final preparation must be performed immediately before administration to the patient. This is especially true for positron-emitting radiopharmaceuticals (PET radiopharmaceuticals) for tomography. This often results in the use of semi-finished products such as radionuclide generators, radioprotozoa, and kits.

[0681] Preferably, the kit of the present invention, apart from one or more compounds of the present invention, typically includes: instructions for use, a final preparation and / or a quality control, one or more optional excipients, one or more optional reagents for a labeling procedure, one or more radionuclides, optionally including or not including a shielding container, and optionally at least one of one or more devices, the device being selected from the group including labeling devices, purification devices, analytical devices, handling devices, radiation protection devices, or administration devices.

[0682] Shielding containers known as "pig iron" containers, used for the general handling and transport of radiopharmaceutical containers, come in various configurations for holding radiopharmaceutical containers such as bottles, vials, and syringes. One form often includes a removable cover that allows access to the held radiopharmaceutical solution. Radiation exposure is acceptable when the pig iron cover is in place.

[0683] Labeling devices are selected from a group including open reactors, closed reactors, microfluidic systems, nanoreactors, cartridges, pressure vessels, vials, temperature-controllable reactors, mixing or shaking reactors, and combinations thereof.

[0684] The purification device is preferably an ion exchange chromatography column or device. The group is selected from size exclusion chromatography columns or devices, affinity chromatography columns or devices, gas or liquid chromatography columns or devices, solid-phase extraction columns or devices, filtration devices, and centrifugation vial columns or devices.

[0685] The analytical device is preferably selected from a group of testing devices for determining identity, radiochemical purity, radionuclide purity, radioactive content, and specific radioactivity of radiolabeled compounds.

Radiation protection devices are used to protect physicians and other individuals from radiation when using therapeutic or diagnostic radionuclides. Preferably, radiation protection devices are selected from the group consisting of devices having a protective barrier of radiation-absorbing material selected from the group consisting of aluminum, plastic, wood, lead, iron, lead glass, water, rubber, plastic, and cloth; devices that ensure sufficient distance from radiation sources; devices that reduce exposure time to radionuclides; devices that limit inhalation, ingestion, or other modes of entry of radioactive materials into the body; and devices that provide combinations of these means.

[0687] The administration device is preferably selected from the group of syringes, protective syringes, needles, pumps, and infusion devices. Syringe protection is generally a hollow cylindrical structure that houses the cylindrical body of the syringe and is made of lead or tungsten, including a lead glass window that allows the handler to see the syringe plunger and the liquid volume inside the syringe.

[0688] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the following drawings and examples, from which further features, embodiments, and advantages can be obtained. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0743] cell: HT29 (ECACC catalog number 91072201) and WI-38 (ECACC catalog number 90020107) were purchased from ECACC, and HEK293 cells (Q12884) expressing human FAP were prepared by InSCREENeX GmbH (Braunschweig, Germany) using recombinase-mediated cassette exchange (RMCE). The RMCE procedure is described by Nehlsen et al. (Nehlsen, et al., BMC Biotechnol, 2009, 9:100). HPLC / MS analysis HPLC / MS analysis was performed by injecting 5 μl of sample solution and using a two-step gradient (5 to 65% B at 12 min, followed by 65 to 90% at 0.5 min, A: 0.1% TFA in water, and B: 0.1% TFA in ACN) for all chromatograms. The RP column was manufactured by Agilent (Type Poroshell 120, 2.7 μm, EC-C18, 50 × 3.00 mm, flow rate 0.8 ml, HPLC at room temperature); mass spectrometer: Agilent 6230 LC / TOF-MS, ESI ionization. MassHunter Qualitative Analysis B.07.00 SP2 was used as the software. UV detection was performed at λ=230 nm. Retention time (R t The time is expressed in decimal (e.g., 1.9 minutes = 1 minute 54 seconds) and refers to detection by UV spectrometer. For evaluation of the mass of the observed compound, see "Find Compounds by The "Formula" function was used. Specifically, the identity of the compounds was confirmed using the "neutral mass (in Daltons)" value of each compound and the corresponding isotope distribution pattern. The accuracy of the mass spectrometer was approximately ±5 ppm.

[0744] Preparative HPLC: Preparative HPLC separation was performed using a reversed-phase column (Phenomenex Kinetex 5μ XB-C18 100Å, 150×30mm, or RLRP-S 8μ, 100Å, 150×25mm) as the stationary phase. 0.1% TFA(A) in water and 0.1% TFA(B) in ACN were used as the mobile phase, mixed in a linear binary gradient. This gradient was described as "10 to 40% in 30 minutes," meaning a linear gradient from 10%B (and corresponding 90%A) to 40%B (and corresponding 60%A) was performed within 30 minutes. The flow rate was in the range of 30–50 ml / min. A typical gradient for the purification of the compounds of the present invention started at 5–25%B and ended at 30–50%B after 30 minutes, with a difference of at least 10% in the percentage of B between the end and start. The commonly used gradient was "15 to 40% B in 30 minutes".

[0745] General procedures for automated / semi-automated solid-phase synthesis: Automated solid-phase synthesis of peptides and polyamides was performed on 50 μmol and 100 μmol scales using a Tetras Peptide Synthesizer (Advanced ChemTech).

Reagent quantities in the described protocols correspond to the 100 μmol scale unless otherwise specified.

[0746] Solid-phase synthesis was carried out using polystyrene resin (crosslinked with 1,4-divinylbenzene (PS) or di(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate (DEG)), ChemMatrix (CM) resin, or TentaGel (TG) resin. The resin linkers were trityl, wang, and linkamide.

[0747] Resin filling: In the case of trityl linker, the attachment (resin filling) of the first building block was carried out as follows: The resin (polystyrene (PS) trityl chloride, initial filling amount: 1.8 mmol / g) was swollen in DCM (5 ml) for 30 minutes, followed by washing with DCM (3 ml, 1 min). Next, this resin was treated for 1 hour with a mixture of the corresponding building block (0.5 mmol, 5 eq.) and DIPEA (350 μl, 3.5 mmol, 35 eq.) in DCM (4 ml). After that, the resin was washed with methanol (5 ml, 5 min) and DMF (3 ml, twice × 1 min).

[0748] In the case of Wang linkers, pre-filled resins (polystyrene (PS) and TentaGel (TG)) were used. In the case of the link amide linker, the attachment of the first residue to the resin (CM, DEG) was carried out using the same procedure as in the chain construction described below.

[0749] Alloc / Allele Deprotection: After swelling in DMF, the resin was washed with DMF and DCM. The DCM was deoxygenated by passing a stream of nitrogen through the stirred solvent. The resin was washed twice (trice) with an oxygen-free solvent. Next, 2 ml of a 2 M solution of barbituric acid in oxygen-free DCM and 1 ml of a 25 μM solution of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) in oxygen-free DCM were added to the resin. The resin was stirred for 1 hour, and then washed with DCM, MeOH, DMF, 5% DIPEA in DMF, 5% dithiocarbamate in DMF, DMF, and DCM (each washing step was repeated three times at 3 ml for 1 minute).

[0750] Fmoc deprotection: After swelling in DMF, the resin was washed with DMF, then treated with piperidine / DMF (1:4, 3 ml, 2 and 20 minutes), followed by washing with DMF (3 ml, 5 times x 1 minute).

[0751] Dde deprotection: After swelling in DMF, the resin was washed with DMF, then treated with hydrazine hydrate / DMF (2 / 98, 3 ml, twice for 10 minutes), and subsequently washed with DMF (3 ml, five times for 1 minute).

[0752] Mtt deprotection: After swelling in DCM, the resin was washed with DCM, then treated with HFIP / DCM (7 / 3, 4-6 ml, 4 hours), followed by washing with DCM (3 ml, 3 times x 1 min), DMF (3 ml, 3 times x 1 ml), and DIPEA (0.9 M in DMF, 3 ml, 1 min).
