Abstract
Description
Novel ecteinascidin derivatives, preparation methods and uses thereof, antibody-drug conjugates and applications thereof Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a novel ecteinascidin derivative, a preparation method and application thereof, an antibody-drug conjugate and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Ecteinascidin is a family of natural products isolated from ascidian. This family includes many biologically active compounds, which usually contain two to three tetrahydroisoquinoline subunits.
[0003] Trabectedin (Yondelis, ET-743) is one of these drugs, exhibiting significant biological activity against a variety of tumor cells. It was first isolated from the Caribbean sea squirt Ecteinascidia turbinata by Kenneth L. Rinehart in 1990 and can now be synthesized (Nat. Prod. Rep., 2015, 32, 328-347). Trabectedin has a unique mechanism of action. It binds to the minor groove of DNA, interfering with cell division, gene transcription, and DNA repair mechanisms. On October 23, 2015, it was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of specific soft tissue sarcomas. Clinical data showed that in more than 500 patients, the median PFS was 4.2 months (n=345; 95% confidence interval (CI): 3.0-4.8 months), and the risk of disease progression or death was reduced by 45% (HR=0.55; 95% CI: 0.44-0.70; p<0.001). The median OS was 13.7 months. The most serious risks associated were neutropenic sepsis (severe infection caused by leukopenia), rhabdomyolysis (serious muscle problems), cardiomyopathy (myocardial problems, including heart failure), hepatotoxicity (liver problems, including liver failure), allergic reactions, as well as extravasation (leakage of trabectedin from the vein during infusion), tissue necrosis (tissue cell damage or death) and embryotoxicity. Among the 378 patients who received at least one dose of trabectedin in the randomized trial, the most common (≥20%) adverse reactions were nausea (75%), fatigue (69%), vomiting (46%), constipation (37%), decreased appetite (37%), diarrhea (35%), peripheral edema (28%), dyspnea (25%), and headache (25%). The most common (≥5%) grade 3-4 laboratory abnormalities were neutropenia (43%), increased alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (31%), thrombocytopenia (21%), anemia (19%), increased aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (17%), and increased creatine kinase (6.4%).
[0004] In summary, although ecteinascidin derivatives have been used clinically as chemotherapy drugs, there is still a high clinical demand for the continued development of new ecteinascidin derivatives and corresponding antibody-drug conjugates, and for further improving their effectiveness and safety.

[0833] Preparation and characterization of antibody-drug conjugates
[0834] The following are examples of methods for preparing and analyzing antibody-drug conjugates. It should be noted that the following examples are merely partial examples and are not limited to the examples described herein. For example, the antibodies described are not limited to the antibodies currently presented but may be any other antibodies.
[0835] General conjugation process for the preparation of antibody-drug conjugates based on novel ecteinascidin derivatives
[0836] Place the monoclonal antibody (1.0 eq.) in a 0.5 mL centrifuge tube and add 25 mM Na2B4O7, 25 mM NaCl, and 1 mM DTPA buffer to a dilution concentration of 5-10 mg / mL. After vortexing, add 2 mg / mL TCEP (5 to 8 eq.) in water to reduce the antibody. After vortexing, place the reaction mixture on a thermomixer with heating and cooling at 20-25°C for 2-3 hours. Add an equal volume of 500 mM Tris, pH 8.8, or other suitable buffer, followed by a 10 mg / mL DMSO-dissolved toxin linker solution (5 to 8 eq.). Supplement the reaction mixture with DMSO to 10-20% of the final volume. After vortexing, place the mixture on a thermomixer with heating and cooling at 25°C for 16-24 hours.
[0837] Use 300 mg / mL dextran-coated activated carbon (manufacturer: Sigma) to remove residual toxin linkers in the reaction solution that are not coupled to the antibody. Add 10% volume of activated carbon solution to the reaction solution, mix and shake, and shake at 4°C for 2 hours. Take the supernatant to detect the residual toxin linker content. If the free toxin linker content is greater than 1%, the above process should be repeated several times until the test results meet the standard (usually 3 times of treatment can meet the requirements). After the treatment is completed, the mixture is centrifuged, the supernatant is collected with a syringe and a hydrophilic membrane filter, and the activated carbon is filtered out. The buffer of the desired antibody-drug conjugate is replaced with a suitable storage buffer by 4 ultrafiltrations and stored at -80°C.

CellTitre-Glo reagent (40 μL per well) was then added, and fluorescence was measured using an i3X microplate reader.
