Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 2021100617618, filed on January 18, 2021. This application cites the above Chinese patent application in full.

[0002] [Technical field] The present invention relates to the field of biomedical technology, specifically, the present invention relates to the use of pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidinone analogs.

[0003] [Background technology] At present, malignant tumors are one of the diseases that greatly threaten human life and health, and their morbidity and mortality rates are increasing year by year. Cancer is the second most common cause of human mortality after heart disease and cerebrovascular disease. The essence of carcinogenesis is that the molecular signals that regulate the physiological functions of cells become abnormal during the transmission process, causing the normal physiological functions of cells to be impaired and leading to unlimited proliferation. Cell signal transduction is closely related to the occurrence, development, recurrence and metastasis of tumors. Conventional cytotoxic drugs for tumor treatment generally have disadvantages such as low selectivity, strong side effects and low drug resistance, which has promoted the shift of antitumor drugs to the research direction of small molecule targeted drugs.

[0004] PI3K-AKT-mTOR is an important pathway of cell cycle control that is important for cell growth, division, survival and reproduction, and its transient activation is involved in the development, survival and migration of various tumors. PI3K (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase), AKT and mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) are important molecules in this pathway, so they are targets for antitumor therapy, and specific inhibitors of PI3K or mTOR are already on the market, and dual inhibitors of these two molecules may theoretically exert better antitumor effects.

[0005] PF-05212384 (PKI-587) is a dual-targeted inhibitor of PI3K and mTOR developed by Pfizer, currently in Phase II clinical trials. Everolimus is an oral mTOR single-targeted inhibitor developed by Novartis, marketed under the trade name Afinitor, and approved for sale by the FDA in March 2009. Internationally, everolimus is approved for multiple indications in tumors such as advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC), tuberous sclerosis-associated subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (TSC-SEGA) and renal angiomyolipoma (TSC-AML), advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNET), and postmenopausal estrogen receptor-positive / HER-2-negative advanced breast cancer (BC).

This result shows that compound I at doses of 0.05, 0.1 and 0.3mg / kg has significant antitumor effect in human breast cancer BT-474 xenograft model, and the effect is dose-dependent. Reference drug PF05212384 had significant antitumor effect in the 20mg / kg group (T / C=15%, TGI=134%, p=0.006) compared with the solvent control group. Everolimus, 5 mg / kg (T / C=19%, TGI=113%, p<0.001) had a significant antitumor effect compared to the vehicle control group, and Compound I at a dose of 0.3 mg / kg had an antitumor effect similar to that of Everolimus at 5 mg / kg.

[0118] [Table 11]

[0119] Conclusion: Compound I could significantly inhibit the growth of PIK3CA mutated breast cancer tumors and induce tumor shrinkage at very low doses of 0.1mg / kg and 0.3mg / kg, with similar effects to the control compound everolimus (5mg / kg, high dose).

[0120] Example 7 Efficacy data of Compound I for cervical cancer patients with PIK3CA mutations in clinical trials.

[0121] Case data: Subject 1, female, 50 years old, underwent radical hysterectomy + pelvic lymphadenectomy on May 5, 2019, and the postoperative pathology report showed cervical squamous cell carcinoma. After surgery, adjuvant therapy was performed from May to August 2019. On August 25, 2020, imaging examination revealed recurrence, and the patient underwent primary treatment. On November 10, 2020, imaging examination revealed disease progression, and the patient underwent secondary treatment. On January 4, 2021, imaging examination revealed disease progression, and the patient underwent tertiary treatment. After disease progression until June 2021, the patient gave informed consent on June 18, 2021. After obtaining the data, a genetic test was performed using the Yakangbo human PIK3CA gene mutation detection kit, and the genetic test showed that the tumor had a PIK3CA mutation. The patient participated in the "Clinical Study of Compound I for the Treatment of Gynecological Tumors with PIK3CA Mutation". During the second tumor evaluation period from July 1, 2021 to October 21, 2021, tablets containing compound I were administered once a day at a dosage of 1.1 mg, and the 1.1 mg dosage included 2 tablets of 0.5 mg of compound I and 1 tablet of 0.1 mg of compound I. The baseline target lesions were lymphatic (left supraclavicular) 26mm, lower lobe of the right lung 17mm, lower lobe of the left lung 14mm, lymphatic (retroperitoneal) 21mm, total diameter 78mm. The first tumor evaluation was performed in August 2021, and the target lesions were lymphatic (left supraclavicular) 13mm, lower lobe of the right lung 13mm, lower lobe of the left lung 8mm, lymphatic (retroperitoneal) 13mm, total diameter 47mm. The tumor shrinkage rate compared to baseline was 39.7%, and the efficacy evaluation was PR (partial relief, the sum of the maximum diameter of the target lesions is ≥ 3. A second tumor assessment was performed on October 21, 2021 with target lesions measured as follows: lymph (left supraclavicular) 14mm, right lower lobe 14mm, left lower lobe NE (present but not measurable, less than 5mm), lymph (retroperitoneal) 12mm, total diameter less than 45mm, tumor reduction rate greater than 42.3% compared to baseline, efficacy assessment was PR (partial remission, reduction in the sum of the greatest diameters of the target lesions by ≥ 30% and maintained for at least 4 weeks).

[0122] Conclusion: Compound I showed therapeutic effect against PIK3CA mutation cervical cancer in clinical trials. Subject 1 had no treatment options because third-line treatments such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and chemotherapy plus angiogenesis inhibitors were ineffective. After administration of compound I, the therapeutic effect was significant, and the tumor shrank to PR (partial remission, reduction in the sum of the maximum diameters of the target lesions by ≥ 30%, maintained for at least 4 weeks).

[0123] Example 8 Efficacy data of Compound I in ovarian cancer patients with PIK3CA mutations in clinical trials.

[0124] Case data: Subject 2, female, 44 years old, underwent "cytoreductive surgery for ovarian cancer (total hysterectomy + double adnexal + omentectomy + appendectomy + right pelvic lymph node biopsy)" on April 27, 2020, and the postoperative pathology report indicated clear cell carcinoma in the left ovary. She was treated with the first-line treatment method, and the last chemotherapy date was October 11, 2020. A CT scan on October 27, 2020 revealed possible liver metastasis. On November 23, 2020, "liver tumor resection + abdominal lesion resection + partial diaphragm resection + diaphragm repair + intestinal adhesion dissolution" was performed, and the postoperative pathology report showed metastasis of clear cell carcinoma in the liver. The patient underwent second-line treatment in January 2021, and an MRI on April 8, 2021 showed tumor progression. On April 23, 2021, informed consent was obtained, and the previous gene detection report based on next-generation sequencing showed that the tumor harbored a PIK3CA mutation, and the patient participated in the "Clinical Study of Compound I for the Treatment of Gynecological Tumors with PIK3CA Mutation". During the second tumor evaluation period from May 11, 2021 to August 31, 2021, tablets containing Compound I were administered once a day at a dose of 1.1 mg, and the 1.1 mg dose included two tablets of 0.5 mg Compound I and one tablet of 0.1 mg Compound I. The baseline target lesion was the paracolic groove (the longest diameter was 35 mm) on the right side of the peritoneum, the longest diameter of the peritoneal lesser omentum cavity was 47 mm, and the total diameter was 82 mm. The first tumor evaluation was performed on July 6, 2021. The target lesions were (1) the paracolic groove on the right side of the peritoneum (not measurable, calculated as a diameter of 5 mm), (2) the longest diameter of the peritoneal lesser omentum was 34 mm, the total diameter was 39 mm, the tumor shrinkage rate compared to baseline was 52.4%, and the efficacy assessment was PR (partial relief, reduction in the sum of the maximum diameters of the target lesions by ≥ 30%, maintained for at least 4 weeks). A second tumor assessment was performed on August 30, 2021, and the target lesions were (1) the paracolic groove on the right side of the peritoneum (not measurable, calculated as a diameter of 5 mm), (2) the longest diameter of the peritoneal lesser omentum was 28 mm, the total diameter was 33 mm, the tumor shrinkage rate compared to baseline was 59.8%, and the efficacy assessment was PR (partial relief, reduction in the sum of the maximum diameters of the target lesions by ≥ 30%, maintained for at least 4 weeks).

[0125] Conclusion: Compound I showed therapeutic effect against PIK3CA mutated ovarian cancer in clinical trials, and subject 2 showed drug resistance after second-line standard treatment and had no treatment options. After administration of compound I, the therapeutic effect was significant, and the tumor went to PR (partial remission, the sum of the maximum diameter of the target lesions was reduced by ≥ 30% and maintained for at least 4 weeks) and continued to shrink (tumor shrank by 59.8%).
