Abstract
Description
PROTAC targeting Bcl-xL protein and its application Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to PROTAC targeting Bcl-xL protein and its application. Background Art
[0002] BCL-2 (B-cell lymphoma 2) gene family members play a central role in regulating programmed cell death by controlling pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic intracellular signals (Czabotar, PE et al., Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol 15, 49-63 (2014)). Anti-apoptotic BCL-2 family proteins such as BCL-2, BCL-XL, BCL-w and Mcl-1 have been shown to be highly expressed in a variety of diseases, especially BCL-xL protein is specifically highly expressed in a variety of senescent cells (He et al., Nat Commun 11, 1996 (2020)). At present, although the anti-aging effect of BCL-2 family inhibitors has been verified in a variety of preclinical models, it also has significant on-target blood toxicity, including thrombocytopenia (Cang et al., Journal of Hematology & Oncology 8, 129 (2015)). Therefore, it is necessary to develop more sophisticated and novel strategies to improve its efficacy and specificity for senescent cells and reduce toxicity.
[0003] The concept of PROTAC (Proteolysis targeting chimeras) was first proposed by Professor Craig Crews' team at Yale University in 2001. The PROTAC molecule consists of three parts: a target protein (POI) ligand, a linker, and an E3 ubiquitin ligase ligand. PROTAC is a heterogeneous bifunctional chimeric molecule, one end of which targets the POI and the other end recruits the E3 ubiquitin ligase to form a dumbbell-shaped ternary complex. The PROTAC molecule mediates a transient interaction between the E3 ligase and the POI. The E3 ubiquitin ligase attaches ubiquitin to the POI, marking it as a defective or damaged protein. The proteasome then recognizes and degrades the marked POI. The main advantages of PROTAC technology include event-driven activity (rather than the occupancy-driven activity of conventional small molecule inhibitors), targeting undruggable proteins, overcoming drug resistance, and low dosage, which is expected to improve many limitations of traditional inhibitors. Since peptides were first used to verify the artificial induction of intracellular protein degradation, and the molecular weight of such peptides is too large, cell-penetrating peptides are needed to increase cell permeability. Therefore, PROTAC technology developed slowly during the 10 years from 2001 to 2011. With the continuous discovery of small molecule E3 ligase ligands, PROTAC technology has developed rapidly. For example, mouse double minute gene 2 protein (MDM2), cell inhibitor of apoptosis protein (cIAP), VHL (VHL) and CRBN (cereblon) have been successfully used in small molecule PROTACs, especially ARV-110 and ARV-471 based on CRBN have been used in clinical studies. However, because PROTAC molecules are usually large in molecular weight and do not meet the "five rules of drug-like properties", resulting in poor drugability, drug development based on this technology usually has poor pharmacokinetic parameters in vivo, and there are challenges of low cell permeability and oral bioavailability. It is necessary to try to screen different E3 ligase ligands and carefully optimize the structure. At the same time, the overall degradation efficiency of PROTAC depends not only on the affinity of the target protein ligand and the type of E3 ligand, but also on the appropriate linker. A large amount of data shows that the length, composition, rigidity and flexibility of the linker group, and the connection site are important for the formation of the active ternary complex, degradation activity and target selectivity of PROTAC. The design of the linker group can further enhance the efficacy by reducing the free energy or restricting the biologically active conformation. Optimizing the structure-activity relationship (SAR) within the linker group will provide an opportunity to adjust the pharmacokinetic properties of protein degraders. However, there is no universally applicable design strategy for the design and optimization of linkers. Often, it starts with a short and simple alkane or polyethylene glycol (PEG) chain, and its related properties are adjusted through continuous iterative trial and error.In summary, PROTACs are a powerful approach to overcoming current drug development barriers, but further research is needed to design and optimize molecules, gradually identify patterns to improve physicochemical properties, and further explore the clinical efficacy and safety of PROTACs. PROTACs offer a broad range of targets and a vast market. With the continued advancement and refinement of this technology, PROTACs could become a successful therapy like small molecule inhibitors, monoclonal antibodies, and immunotherapy, benefiting a wider range of patients.
[0004] Aging is a major risk factor for physiological degeneration, increased incidence of chronic diseases and age-related mortality (Lopez-Otin et al., Cell 153, 1194-1217 (2013)). During the aging process, senescent cells accumulate in multiple tissues and cause tissue dysfunction (van Deursen et al., Nature 509, 439-446 (2014); McHugh et al., J Cell Biol 217, 65-77 (2018)). Senescent cells also secrete a variety of proinflammatory factors, known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), which leads to age-related physical decline (Coppe et al., PLoS Biol 6, 2853-2868 (2008); Coppe et al., Annu Rev Pathol 5, 99-118 (2010)). Eliminating senescent cells has become an attractive potential approach to improve age-related diseases and improve health (Xu et al., Nat Med 24, 1246-1256 (2018); Baker et al., Nature 479, 232-236 (2011); Baker et al., Nature 530, 184-189 (2016)). However, due to the complexity and heterogeneity of senescent cells, it remains challenging to specifically and effectively eliminate multiple types of senescent cells (Kirkland et al. J Am Geriatr Soc 65, 2297-2301 (2017); Lozano-Torres et al., Nature Reviews Chemistry 3, 426-441 (2019)). Existing studies have shown that the Bcl-2 anti-apoptotic pathway plays a key role in maintaining the survival of senescent cells (Zhu et al., Aging Cell 14, 644-658 (2015), Chang et al., Nat Med 22, 78-83 (2016)). Compounds that selectively kill senescent cells, called "senolytics," have attracted considerable interest. BCL-xL inhibitors can effectively kill senescent cells as anti-aging drugs (Zhu et al., Aging Cell 15, 428-435 (2016)). Bcl-xL inhibitors induce apoptosis in senescent cells by removing the key anti-apoptotic mechanism that maintains the survival of senescent cells, thereby achieving the clearance of senescent cells in vitro and in vivo. They have shown great potential in the treatment of various aging-related diseases such as osteoarthritis, age-related macular degeneration, and diabetic nephropathy.
[0005] By structurally modifying BCL-xL protein inhibitors and combining them with E3 ligase ligands to form PROTACs, they effectively combine the advantages of both. On the one hand, they can specifically induce apoptosis in senescent cells, and on the other hand, they can effectively reduce the hematological toxicity of BCL-xL protein inhibitors. Simultaneously, the overall molecular structure is optimized to ensure clinical efficacy and safety, providing new insights into the treatment of a range of geriatric and aging-related diseases.
