Description

Glutamic acid urea compound and preparation method and application thereof, nuclide targeting probe and preparation method and application thereof, and pharmaceutical composition

[0001] This application claims priority to the Chinese patent application filed with the State Intellectual Property Office on August 17, 2023, with application number CN202311035883.5 and invention name “Glutamic acid urea compounds, preparation methods and applications thereof, radionuclide targeted probes, preparation methods and applications thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions”, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference into this application. Technical Field

[0002] The present invention belongs to the field of biomedicine technology, and specifically relates to glutamate urea compounds and preparation methods and applications thereof, pharmaceutically acceptable salts of glutamate urea compounds, radionuclide targeting probes and preparation methods and applications thereof, pharmaceutically acceptable salts of radionuclide targeting probes, and pharmaceutical compositions. Background Art

[0003] Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is overexpressed in approximately 90% of prostate cancers. Therefore, PSMA-targeted radioligand therapy (RLT) has become a potentially valuable treatment strategy for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). In addition, PSMA expression has also been found in other solid tumors, so PSMA can be used as a therapeutic target for a variety of tumors. In recent years, various PSMA-targeted radioligands have been developed, which have shown good prospects in early clinical evaluation. The leading position in this field is [ 177 Lu]Lu-PSMA617, multiple studies have shown that [ 177 Lu]Lu-PSMA617RLT has shown good safety and efficacy in a large number of mCRPC patients. However, due to the rapid metabolism of the drug in the body, single-dose administration is often large, and many patients have an insufficient response to radioligand therapy, resulting in disease progression during or after treatment.

[0004] One of the strategies to enhance therapeutic efficacy is to improve the delivery of radioligands. The commonly used method is to increase the tumor uptake dose by conjugating albumin-binding groups to PSMA-targeted radioligands to prolong the blood residence time. For example, albumin-binding groups such as p-iodophenylbutyric acid, Evans blue or ibuprofen can be modified into PSMA probes to achieve higher tumor uptake. However, this strategy often also increases the irradiation dose to healthy organs and tissues (including kidneys and bone marrow). Therefore, the pharmacokinetic properties of the probe in vivo must be carefully regulated. In summary, it is of great significance to develop a PSMA-targeted probe with a short blood circulation cycle, high absolute tumor uptake, long lesion retention, and low background in non-target organs.

[0005] Deferasirox (DFX) is an oral iron chelator that is often used to reduce the iron content in patients with transfusion-dependent anemia and non-transfusion-dependent thalassemia. Studies have shown that deferasirox has certain tumor targeting properties. After it is enriched in the tumor site, it has an anti-tumor cell proliferation effect. It can be used as a chemotherapy drug. It has also been reported as an antifungal and antibacterial drug. However, how to modify deferasirox so that it can have better tumor targeting, a higher lesion enrichment rate, and better disease treatment effects is a difficult problem facing researchers. In addition, the value of the deferasirox structure in the design of radionuclide-targeted drugs has not yet been developed. It is still unknown how much influence it will have on the pharmacokinetic properties of the probe after hybridization with other receptor-targeting groups. Its role in the field of radionuclide-targeted diagnosis and treatment is even more to be explored.

[0163] Cellular uptake and inhibition experiments

[0164] PSMA-overexpressing PC3PIP cells and negatively expressing PC3flu cells were plated in 24-well plates containing culture medium (including fetal bovine serum and dual antibody) (cell counts were performed using a cell counter, approximately 200,000 cells / well) and cultured for 24 hours. At the start of the uptake experiment, the original culture medium was aspirated, and the cells were washed twice with PBS (500 μL). The PBS was then aspirated. An equal amount of the probe to be tested, diluted in culture medium, was added to each well and incubated at 37°C for 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 8 hours. At each time point, the culture medium was aspirated, and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution (500 μL, 1 M) was added to each well to lyse the cells. After 5 minutes, the lysed cells were placed in a disposable centrifuge tube and the radioactivity count was measured. This count was divided by the total amount of added radioactivity to obtain the percentage of cellular uptake.

[0165] To investigate the PSMA targeting specificity of the probe, an inhibition group was also set up in this study. That is, an appropriate amount of the inhibitor PSMA617 was added to each well of cells before the addition of the radionuclide-labeled probe, and the cells were incubated at 37°C for 2 hours and 4 hours. After the incubation was completed, the radioactive culture medium was aspirated, and sodium hydroxide solution (500 μL, 1 M) was added to each well to lyse the cells. After 5 minutes, the lysed cells were placed in a disposable centrifuge tube to measure the radioactivity count; the count was divided by the total amount of added radioactivity to obtain the percentage of cellular uptake.

[0166] [ 177 Lu]Lu-PKND01, [ 177 Lu]Lu-PKND02, [ 177 Lu]Lu-PKSD01 and [ 177The cellular uptake and inhibition results of Lu]Lu-PKSD02 are shown in Figures 13-14. Taking the 4-hour results as an example, each radionuclide-targeted probe showed significant uptake in PSMA-positive cells, while uptake was significantly reduced in PSMA-negative cells. The uptake of each radionuclide-targeted probe in PSMA-positive cells was inhibited by PSMA617, demonstrating that the radionuclide-targeted probes provided by the present invention are specific for PSMA protein.

MicroPET imaging was performed at different time points, and the region of interest (ROI) was outlined on the image. The probe distribution value was obtained by calculation. 68 Ga]Ga-PKND01, [ 68 Ga]Ga-PKND02, [ 68 Ga]Ga-PKSD01 and [ 68 The PET imaging results of Ga]Ga-PKSP2D01 are shown in Figures 15, 16, 17, and 18, respectively. Figures 15-18 demonstrate high uptake of the radionuclide-targeted probe at the tumor site. High radioactivity signals were observed in the bladder and kidneys, indicating that the radionuclide-targeted probe was excreted in the urine. Both the absolute tumor uptake and the target / non-target ratio increased significantly over time.

Mice were sacrificed at different time points after injection, and tumor and other organ tissue samples were obtained by dissection. The samples were weighed and radioactivity counts were measured using a gamma counter. Results are expressed as percent uptake dose per gram of tissue or organ (%ID / g). 177Lu]Lu-PKND01 and [ 177 The biodistribution results of Lu]Lu-PSMA617 are shown in Figures 25 and 26, respectively. 4 hours after injection, [ 177 Lu] Lu-PKND01 tumor uptake was greater than 80% ID / g. 24 hours after injection, the tumor uptake value reached 150% ID / g and remained at 60% ID / g at 96 hours. 177 Lu]Lu-PSMA617, the nuclide targeting probe provided by the present invention [ 177 Lu]Lu-PKND01 has significantly enhanced tumor uptake and prolonged retention time.
