Abstract
Description
Camptothecin derivatives and antibody-drug conjugates thereof for treating or preventing cancer Technical Field
[0001] In summary, the present invention relates to camptothecin derivatives and their drug-linker conjugates and antibody-drug conjugates for treating or preventing cancer, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or esters, solvates, tautomers, stereoisomers, prodrugs, or isotope-labeled forms thereof. The present invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the camptothecin derivatives, their drug-linker conjugates, or antibody-drug conjugates, as well as methods for their preparation and uses.
[0002] Background of the Invention
[0003] Antibody-Drug Conjugate (ADC) is a highly promising targeted drug, consisting mainly of three parts: an antibody (Ab) responsible for selectively recognizing antigens on the surface of tumor cells, a small molecule cytotoxic drug (Payload) responsible for killing tumor cells, and a linker (Linker) that connects the Payload to the Ab. The antibody acts as a carrier to transport the small molecule cytotoxic drug to the target cells.
[0004] By binding antibodies to tumor cell surface antigens, ADCs enter the cell via endocytosis. The small molecule cytotoxic drug then dissociates from the ADC and exerts its biological function. Thus, ADCs combine the potent killing effects of traditional small molecule cytotoxic drugs with the tumor-targeting properties of antibodies. Currently, there are many ADC drugs used to treat liquid tumors and solid tumors, such as POLIVY (Polatuzumab vedotin-piiq, CD79b-MMAE), which is approved by the FDA for the treatment of relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R / RDLBCL); PADCEV (Enfortumab vedotin-ejfv, Nectin4-MMAE), which is approved by the FDA for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC); Enhertu (Fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki, Her2-Dxd), used to treat breast cancer, etc.; and Trodelvy (sacituzumab govitecan-hziy, TROP2-SN38), used to treat patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.
[0005] Camptothecin (CPT) is a small molecule, plant-based anticancer drug that acts as a DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor, showing promising results against gastrointestinal and head and neck cancers. Several camptothecin derivatives, such as irinotecan and exatecan, have been developed and are clinically used to treat tumors, including colorectal, pancreatic, and lung cancers. Camptothecin derivatives have also been used in ADC development, such as Enhertu, which uses Dxd as a payload, and Trodelvy, which uses SN-38 as a payload. However, many solid tumors still respond poorly to camptothecin drugs (Joshua Z Drago, Shanu Modi, Sarat Chandarlapaty et al. Unlocking the potential of antibody-drug conjugates for cancer therapy. Nat Rev Clin Oncol. 2021 Jun; 18(6): 327-344. doi: 10.1038 / s41571-021-00470-8. Epub 2021 Feb 8.). Tumor cells can develop resistance to camptothecins and their ADCs through various mechanisms, such as reduced cellular accumulation of the drug (GL Beretta, L Gatti, P Perego et al. Camptothecin resistance in cancer: insights into the molecular mechanisms of a DNA-damaging drug. Curr Med Chem. 2013; 20(12): 1541-65. doi: 10.2174 / 0929867311320120006.), which is related to the fact that SN38 is a substrate of P-glycoprotein (Michael Tagen, Yanli Zhuang, Fan Zhang et al. P-glycoprotein, but not multidrug resistance protein 4, plays a role in the systemic clearance of irinotecan and SN-38 in mice. Drug Metab Lett. 2010 Dec; 4(4): 195-201.).
[0006] Therefore, there is still a need to develop new camptothecin derivatives with good cytotoxicity and high-efficiency, low-toxicity ADC drugs. In particular, the camptothecin derivatives and ADC drugs of the present invention have good therapeutic efficacy. Moreover, the camptothecin derivatives and ADC drugs of the present invention have good tolerability, low toxic side effects, and a wide therapeutic window. The ADC drugs of the present invention also have good tumor tissue targeting and a strong bystander effect.

For example, with maleimide linkers, cysteine residues on the antibody serve as attachment points for the payload. Reduction of interchain disulfide bonds on the antibody generates eight free sulfhydryl groups, which react with maleimide via Michael addition to attach the payload, resulting in an ADC product with a DAR value approaching 8.
[0251] Antibody drug conjugates can be characterized by the drug-antibody ratio (DAR). The term "drug-antibody ratio" or "DAR" as used herein refers to the quantitative ratio of the small molecule drug portion (D) coupled to the antibody or its antigen-binding fragment (Ab) to the antibody or its antigen-binding fragment portion (Ab). The average drug-antibody ratio (average DAR) represents the ratio of the molar concentrations of the total drug molecules and antibody molecules in the assay system. The DAR can range from 1 to 20, but higher loadings are also possible, depending on the number of attachment sites on the antibody. Methods for determining the DAR are known in the art, such as reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC), size exclusion chromatography (SEC-HPLC), mass spectrometry, and hydrophobic chromatography (HIC-HPLC).
[0252] In some embodiments, the antibody drug conjugates of the present invention have an average DAR selected from any value within the following ranges: 1.0-20.0, 1.0-18.0, 1.0-16.0, 1.0-10.0, 2.0-14.0, 3.0-12.0, 4.0-10.0, 5.0-9.0, 6.0-8.0, or 2.0-8.0.

[0271] Linker
[0272] The term "linker" as used herein is a connecting portion used to connect a small molecule cytotoxic drug (Payload) to an antibody or its antigen-binding fragment (Ab), and can be represented as a -L1-L2-L3-L4- portion in this application. Linkers generally include cleavable linkers and non-cleavable linkers. Cleavable linkers utilize the difference in conditions between the blood circulation and tumor cells (such as pH, proteolysis or glutathione concentration) or utilize the specific action of antibodies in lysosomes (such as lysosomal proteolytic enzymes) to break, releasing the payload and exerting the drug's active effect. Non-cleavable linkers rely on the degradation of antibodies in lysosomes to release the drug and produce drug activity.
[0273] The linkers that can be used in the present invention include cleavable linkers and non-cleavable linkers, such as acid-sensitive linkers (e.g., hydrazone bond linkers), glutathione-sensitive linkers (e.g., disulfide bond linkers), enzyme-cleavable linkers (e.g., short peptide linkers, β-glucuronide linkers), amide bond linkers, thioether linkers, etc. In particular, the linkers that can be used in the present application include but are not limited to those given above, especially those used in the examples.
[0274] The term "Linker Unit" is a component (L1) of the Linker (-L1-L2-L3-L4- portion) that serves to attach the Linker or a Linker that is part of a Drug-Linker Conjugate to an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof. Examples include, but are not limited to
[0275] Among them, position 1 is connected to Ab, and position 2 is connected to L2.

[0277] The component L3 of the linker of the present application is an amino acid residue, a short peptide chain consisting of 2-10 (preferably 2-6) amino acid residues, or -NH-(CH2) p -CO-, for example, -NH-(CH2)2-CO-. The amino acid can be either natural or non-natural, such as glycine (Gly), alanine (Ala), valine (Val), phenylalanine (Phe), citrulline (Cit), lysine (Lys) and asparagine (Asn). L3 can be directly linked to the small molecule drug moiety or linked to the small molecule drug moiety through a spacer unit.
[0278] The term "spacer unit" is a component (L4) of the linker (-L1-L2-L3-L4- moiety). When present, its function is to connect the linker to the small molecule drug moiety (D), or to provide an additional structural moiety to facilitate the release of the small molecule drug moiety from the ADC. Examples include, but are not limited to
[0279] Bit 1 is connected to L3 and bit 2 is connected to D.
[0280] Small molecule drug part
[0281] The terms "small molecule drug moiety," "small molecule cytotoxic drug moiety," and "payload" are used interchangeably herein to refer to the component of an antibody-drug conjugate or drug-linker conjugate responsible for killing tumor cells. Following administration, the ADC undergoes cleavage between or within target cells, releasing the small molecule drug or its derivative, which then exerts its biological activity. For the avoidance of doubt, it should be noted that "drug" does not refer solely to "pharmaceuticals" approved by pharmaceutical regulatory authorities; it also encompasses any compound with potential biological activity in clinical practice, R&D, or academic research.
[0282] In the present invention, the small molecule drug portion is derived from a camptothecin derivative of formula (II), in particular, a camptothecin derivative from the Examples herein. It is a portion obtained by losing an atom (e.g., a hydrogen atom) or a group of atoms from a camptothecin derivative of formula (II). For example, the small molecule drug portion is a portion obtained by losing a hydrogen atom connected to a nitrogen or oxygen atom in R1 or R3 or by losing a hydrogen atom from a hydroxyl group shown in formula (II). The hydroxyl group shown in formula (II) refers to the hydroxyl group indicated by the arrow in the following structure:
[0283] The small molecule drug moiety of the present invention can be linked to the linker via any chemically permitted bonding means, including but not limited to amide bonds, aminomethyl ether bonds, and carbamate bonds.

[0651] On day 6, remove the 96-well plate containing NCI-N87 and Cell Titer Turbo 2.0 reagent from the incubator and allow them to return to room temperature. Then, add 60 μL per well of the 96-well plate and incubate at room temperature for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, read the fluorescence signal on a microplate reader.

[0654] After digestion of antigen-positive cells (folate receptor α-positive cells KB) and antigen-negative cells (293T cells) in logarithmic phase growth, the cells were adjusted to an appropriate cell density. Antigen-positive cells and antigen-negative cells were added to 96-well white low-transparency plates in different proportions and placed in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for cell culture overnight. The next day, the ADC was gradiently diluted with the corresponding cell culture medium and added to the 96-well plate with cells at 100 μL / well, and cultured in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 5-7 days. The growth inhibition of tumor cells by ADC was evaluated by Cell Titer Turbo 2.0 Luminescent Cell Viability Assay (Adamas life, RA-GL11-A). The relative light unit (RLU) value was read on the cell culture plate using a microplate reader. The ADCs of the embodiments of the present application have a strong bystander effect.
[0655] CHOK1-EGFP cells (a Chinese hamster ovary cell substrain, target-negative, laboratory-generated) and OE19 cells (human esophageal carcinoma cells, target-positive, Kebai CBP60495) were obtained by trypsinization, resuspended and counted, and OE19 cells were seeded into 96-well plates at a density of 0-8000 cells / well, while CHOK1-EFGP cells were seeded into 96-well plates at a density of 500 cells / well. The ADCs of the examples or reference ADCs were added to the 96-well plates at a density of 1 μg / mL. The 96-well plates were placed in an Incucyte detector and incubated for 7 days. The green fluorescence signal was monitored in real time. After 7 days, data was collected and plotted to evaluate the bystander effect of the ADCs. The data are shown in Figures 3a to 3e. The results showed that when target-negative CHOK1-EGFP cells were added alone, the ADC drug had no killing effect. As the number of co-cultured target-positive cells OE19 increased, the killing effect of the ADC drug on CHOK1-EGFP increased, indicating that the ADC drug had a bystander effect.

No.: 354234, BD, RPMI 1640 medium: Matrigel = 7:3) was added and mixed with the cell solution. After that, the cells were plated at 2.5×10 7 200 μL / mouse was inoculated subcutaneously in the right flank of immunodeficient mice. 3 When , 5 mice were divided into groups per group, and the test sample or an equal volume of PBS vehicle control was injected into the tail vein according to the dosage volume of 10mL / kg. The drug was administered twice, with an interval of 9 days between the first and second administrations (doses were 1 and 5mg / kg, respectively). After administration, the mice were raised normally, the survival status of the mice was observed, and the weight and tumor volume of the mice were recorded twice a week. The results are shown in Figures 4 and 5. As shown in Figure 4, Fa-ADC1 significantly inhibited the growth of SK-OV-3 tumors compared with the vehicle control, IgG1-Dxd (Iso-ADC reference) and Fa-ADC reference. During the experimental observation period, the body weight of tumor-bearing mice did not decrease, indicating that the mice had good tolerance under this dosage condition (see Figure 5).
[0662] In addition, the anti-tumor efficacy of different ADC molecules was evaluated in NCI-N87 (human gastric cancer cells), Capan-1 (human pancreatic cancer cells), JIMT-1 (human breast cancer cells), Calu-3 (human lung adenocarcinoma cells) and OE19 (human esophageal cancer cells) tumor cell models using the Her2 antibody trastuzumab.
