[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 537,034, filed July 26, 2017, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
[0002] The present invention relates to compounds and methods useful for recruiting antibodies to cancer cells. The present invention also provides pharmaceutically acceptable compositions comprising the compounds of the present invention and methods of using the compositions in the treatment of various disorders. [Background technology]
[0003] Immune system activity can be utilized to prevent or treat a variety of conditions, disorders and diseases. Summary of the Invention [Means for solving the problem]
[0004] In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides technologies, e.g., compounds, compositions, methods, etc., that are particularly useful for recruiting antibodies against damaged or defective tissue (e.g., tumors, certain wounds, etc.), foreign objects or entities (e.g., pathogens), etc. In some embodiments, the provided technologies may induce, generate, promote, and / or enhance immune system activity, e.g., antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP), etc., against target cells, tissues, objects, and / or entities. In some embodiments, the present disclosure is directed to the design and synthesis of new small molecules that can selectively redirect endogenous antibodies to diseased cells, e.g., cancer cells, and induce immune system activity, e.g., antibody-induced cell-mediated immune responses, e.g., cytotoxicity, ADCP, etc.
[0005] Although still in its infancy, the concept of using small molecules to template the human immune response shows real potential. Recent reports have demonstrated the use of small molecules to target antibodies to cancerous cells, such as breast cancer cells, melanoma cells, and nasopharyngeal epidermal carcinoma cells. Animal studies have demonstrated that these molecules can promote tumor rejection and antitumor immunity in mice. In some embodiments, such molecules can promote tumor regression and / or inhibit tumor growth. This process allows for selective targeting of endogenous antibodies to targeted cells, potentially harnessing the power of many immunotherapies, such as monoclonal antibody (mAb)-based therapeutics, while limiting the costs and side effects associated with administering exogenous antibodies. By developing similar methods to recruit antibodies to diseased cells, such as cancer cells, the proposed research will help expand this field, potentially creating new therapies for a variety of diseases.
[0006] In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides antibody recruiting molecules comprising an antibody-binding portion and a target-binding portion, optionally via a linker portion. In some embodiments, antibody recruiting molecules (ARMs) are a class of compounds comprised of two functional segments, i.e., a target-binding end (TBT) and an antibody-binding end (ABT), connected by a linker. The target-binding portion, e.g., the target-binding end, can confer specificity of the ARM for its target, e.g., a diseased cell of interest, by, for example, binding to a receptor that distinguishes the target from a non-target (e.g., diseased cells from other cell types). In particular, the ARM can enable target-specific recruitment of antibodies, e.g., endogenous antibodies, administered antibodies, etc., via the ABT, and / or can induce, generate, promote, and / or enhance immune activity, e.g., immune-mediated killing of target cells. Without intending to be bound by any particular theory, previous work in the Spiegel laboratory has reported that ARM-induced killing is mediated primarily through natural killer (NK) cells and macrophages, and that the primary receptor involved in this process is CD16a (or Fc gamma RIIIa).
[0007] Previously reported ABTs, such as those investigated by the Spiegel laboratory, have focused on molecules (antigens) that bind to the variable region of the Fab of an antibody. Among other things, the present disclosure embraces the recognition that the therapeutic success of this approach depends on the presence of sufficient levels of specific antibody populations, which can vary dramatically between individuals. In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides techniques that can circumvent the dependency on specific antibody populations and the undesirable effects that can result from individual variability in specific antibody populations. In particular, in some embodiments, the present disclosure provides ARMs that include ABTs ("universal ABTs" or "uABTs") that can bind to the Fc region of an antibody, thereby, among other things, recruiting antibodies of various antigen specificities. In some embodiments, Applicant describes the use of a class of ABTs that bind to conserved sites present in the Fc region of IgG. In some embodiments, uABTs enable the recruitment of all IgG subclasses (IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4). In some embodiments, uABTs enable the preferential recruitment of IgG1, IgG2, and / or IgG4. In some embodiments, the recruitment of antibodies, eg, IgG subclasses, is limited only by the administered dose of the ARM and / or is not limited by the level of antibodies with a particular Fab region in an individual.
[0008] To provide an ARM containing uABT, Applicant evaluated a number of peptides reported to bind to the Fc of human IgG for their applicability for use in the ARM platform. In some embodiments, an essential component of evaluating the therapeutic utility of this strategy is demonstrating that antibodies recruited in this orientation are capable of binding and activating CD16a.
[0009] Biochemical and cell-based assays demonstrate that a series of Fc-binding cyclic peptides can induce CD16a activation and indeed bind antibodies in a manner applicable to the ARM platform. In some embodiments, the present disclosure demonstrates that uABT can bind to a variety of antibodies. In some embodiments, in addition to affinity for all human IgG subclasses, these peptides are highly species cross-reactive, binding to secondary antibodies from goat, rabbit, and mouse, as explored by various evaluation methods. In some embodiments, uABT binds to IgG molecules but does not bind to human IgA or IgM.
[0010] Various TBTs can be utilized in accordance with the present disclosure. In an attempt to discover effective cellular targets for cancer therapy, researchers have sought to identify transmembrane or other tumor-associated polypeptides that are differentially expressed on the surface of one or more specific types of cancer cells compared to one or more normal, non-cancerous cell(s). Often, such tumor-associated polypeptides are more abundantly expressed on the surface of cancer cells compared to the surface of non-cancerous cells. The identification of such tumor-associated cell surface antigen polypeptides, i.e., tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), has created the ability to specifically target cancer cells for destruction. TBTs that selectively bind to TAAs can target targeted cancer cells, enabling cell-specific recruitment of antibodies, e.g., endogenous antibodies, via the TBT. Additional suitable TBTs are provided in the present disclosure.
[0011] In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides compounds, and pharmaceutically acceptable compositions thereof, that are effective in recruiting antibodies to diseased cells, e.g., cancer cells. In some embodiments, provided compounds induce antibody-dependent effector function. In some embodiments, provided compounds induce complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC). In some embodiments, provided compounds induce direct cytotoxicity. In some embodiments, provided compounds inhibit biological functions associated with steric blockage. In some embodiments, provided compounds induce antibody-dependent cell-mediated viral inhibition (ADCVI). In some embodiments, provided compounds induce ADCC and kill cancer cells.

[0429] The compounds and compositions of the present invention may be administered in any amount and via any route of administration effective for treating or reducing the severity of cancer or a proliferative disorder. The exact amount required will vary from subject to subject, depending on the subject's species, age, and general condition, the severity of the infection, the specific drug, its mode of administration, and the like. The compounds of the present invention are preferably formulated in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. The expression "dosage unit form," as used herein, refers to a physically discrete unit of drug appropriate for the patient being treated. However, the total daily usage of the compounds and compositions of the present invention will be determined by the attending physician within the scope of sound medical judgment. The specific effective dosage level for any particular patient or organism will depend on a variety of factors, including the disorder being treated and the severity of the disorder; the activity of the specific compound used; the specific composition used; the patient's age, weight, general health, sex, and diet; the time of administration, route of administration, and excretion rate of the specific compound used; the duration of treatment; drugs used in combination with or concurrently with the specific compound used, and similar factors well known in the medical field. The term "patient", as used herein, means an animal, preferably a mammal, and most preferably a human.
[0430] The pharmaceutically acceptable compositions of the present invention may be administered to humans and other animals orally, rectally, intravesically, intravaginally, intraperitoneally, topically (such as by powder, ointment, or drops), bucally, as an oral or nasal spray, etc., depending on the severity of the infection being treated. In certain embodiments, the compounds of the present invention may be administered orally or parenterally in single or multiple doses at a dosage level of about 0.01 mg / kg to about 50 mg / kg, preferably about 1 mg / kg to about 25 mg / kg of subject body weight per day to achieve the desired therapeutic effect.
[0431] Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include, but are not limited to, pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs. In addition to the active compound, liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents, solubilizers, and emulsifiers such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, dimethylformamide, oils (especially cottonseed oil, peanut oil, corn oil, germ oil, olive oil, castor oil, and sesame oil), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, and mixtures thereof. In addition to inert diluents, oral compositions may also contain auxiliary agents such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweeteners, flavoring agents, and fragrances.
[0432] Injectable preparations, for example, sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions, can be formulated according to known techniques using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. Sterile injectable preparations can also be sterile injectable solutions, suspensions, or emulsions in non-toxic parenterally acceptable diluents or solvents, such as solutions in 1,3-butanediol. Acceptable vehicles and solvents that can be used include water, Ringer's solution, USP, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. Sterile fixed oils are also commonly used as solvents or suspending media. For this purpose, any non-irritating fixed oil can be used, including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. Fatty acids, such as oleic acid, are also used in the preparation of injectables.
[0433] Injectable preparations can be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter, or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved or dispersed in sterile water or other injectable sterile medium before use.
[0434] To prolong the effect of a compound of the present invention, it is often desirable to slow the absorption of the compound from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This can be accomplished by using a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous material with poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the compound then depends on its dissolution rate, which in turn may depend on crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally administered compound form can be achieved by dissolving or suspending the compound in an oil vehicle. Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of the compound in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. Depending on the ratio of compound to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer used, the rate of compound release can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot injectable formulations can also be prepared by entrapping the compound in liposomes or microemulsions that are compatible with body tissues.
[0435] Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are preferably suppositories which can be prepared by mixing a compound of the invention with a suitable non-irritating excipient or carrier such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol or a suppository wax which is solid at ordinary temperatures but liquid at body temperature and therefore melts in the rectum or vaginal cavity and releases the active compound.
[0436] Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound is mixed with at least one inert pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or carrier such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate, and / or a) fillers or extenders such as starches, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and silicic acid; b) binders such as, for example, carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose, and acacia; c) humectants such as glycerol; d) disintegrating agents such as agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate; e) solution retarding agents such as paraffin; f) absorption accelerators such as quaternary ammonium compounds; g) humectants such as, for example, cetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate; h) absorbents such as kaolin and bentonite clay; and i) lubricants such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate, and mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage form may also comprise buffering agents.
