Description

A cleavable linker compound for a prodrug delivery system and its preparation and application Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of biomedical technology and pharmaceutical preparation prodrug design, and relates to the design, synthesis and synthetic products of a novel linker of a cleavable prodrug delivery system, and its application in the prodrug delivery system. Background Art

[0002] As people's understanding of tumors deepens, different treatment methods such as small molecule cytotoxic drugs, nucleic acids, proteins or peptides, and immunomodulators are also developing. Among them, chemotherapy is still one of the important means of treating cancer. However, while chemotherapy uses cytotoxic drugs to kill tumor cells, it will inevitably affect normal tissues and cause various side effects.

[0003] Tumor cells are characterized by abnormal growth and rapid proliferation. Therefore, most chemotherapy drugs target these characteristics, using compounds with strong cytotoxicity. However, due to this lack of selectivity, these drugs can damage normal tissue while killing tumor cells, adding an additional burden to already vulnerable cancer patients. While some drugs, such as camptothecin derivatives, have a place among anticancer drugs due to their promising effects, their physical properties, such as poor water solubility, make administration difficult and patient compliance is poor.

[0004] Therefore, modifying these drugs to increase their targeting, solubility, stability, and clinical suitability has become a major challenge in the development of chemotherapy drugs. The novel linker of the present invention, which simultaneously provides a trigger, a site for modifying the side chain, and the ability to self-cleave under specific conditions to release the active drug, offers a solution to this problem.

[0005] Glucuronide prodrugs are selectively activated by β-glucuronidase, an enzyme highly expressed in the microenvironment of many solid tumors, including lung, breast, and gastrointestinal cancers. Over the past two decades, they have been used to deliver drugs around tumors. While prodrugs can reduce the toxicity of active drugs, their rapid metabolism through renal clearance has limited their development.

[0006] Human serum albumin (HSA) is an endogenous protein abundant in plasma. As a nutrient, it is preferentially taken up by tumors. Furthermore, when linked to albumin, its large molecular properties can impart an EPR effect to the prodrug. Albumin's stable structure and long half-life of 19 days stabilize and enhance the prodrug's half-life.

[0007] Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs) are produced by coupling a bioactive small molecule drug to a monoclonal antibody (mAb) via a linker. Currently, the vast majority of ADCs are composed of tumor-targeting antibodies coupled to highly cytotoxic small molecule drugs via linkers. Leveraging the specific binding properties of antibodies to target antigens, ADCs deliver small molecule drugs to tumor cells, thereby exerting their tumor-killing effects. There are also cases where proteins and peptides with similar specific binding properties as antibodies, such as specific ligands, antigens, and peptides, are conjugated to linker compounds.

[0008] Summary of the Invention

[0009] In order to address the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to propose a new general formula compound of a cleavable linker / branched linker for use in a prodrug delivery system, and further synthetic products thereof, and preparation methods and applications thereof, including applications in a prodrug delivery system. The present invention innovatively proposes for the first time a new approach to trigger drug release by hydrolyzing peptide bonds or glycosidic bonds by cathepsin or β-glucuronidase. Specifically, the linker compound that can be used in a prodrug delivery system of the present invention hydrolyzes peptide bonds into amino groups by cathepsin, and glycosidic bonds into hydroxyl groups by β-glucuronidase or galactosidase; then 1.6 self-cleavage occurs and the corresponding active drug is released through a self-closed ring process.

[0103] Another object of the present invention is to provide a possible drug release mechanism under different conditions by connecting a ligand, a trigger and a drug to a linker to form a targeted drug linker.

[0104] The linker hydrolyzes the peptide bond into an amino group by tissue protease, or the glycosidic bond into a hydroxyl group by β-glucuronidase or galactosidase; then 1.6 self-cleavage occurs and the corresponding active drug is released through a self-closing ring process.

[0105] The present invention also provides a drug or pharmaceutical composition comprising the linker compound, its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate, polymorph, isomer, derivative, or the covalently bound prodrug or antibody conjugate, and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, diluent or carrier.

[0106] The present invention also proposes an application, wherein the linker compound (1) includes but is not limited to compounds of formula (J1-1), formula (J4-1), formula (L4-1), formula (L7-1), formula (L1-1), formula (L7-2), formula (L7-3), formula (L7-4), etc., and / or the covalently bound prodrugs or antibody-drug conjugates, as well as drugs and / or pharmaceutical compositions containing the aforementioned compounds, are used in the preparation of anti-tumor drugs and in the preparation of albumin-bound anti-tumor drugs; and also includes the application in the preparation of tumor treatment for albumin-bound β-glucuronidase prodrugs and antibody-drug conjugates for tumor treatment.

[0107] The tumor is a solid tumor or blood tumor such as breast cancer, ovarian cancer, ovarian teratoma, cervical cancer, uterine cancer, prostate cancer, kidney cancer, urethra cancer, testicular cancer, bladder cancer, liver cancer, gastric cancer, endometrial cancer, salivary gland cancer, esophageal cancer, head and neck cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer, rectal cancer, colorectal cancer, bone cancer, skin cancer, thyroid cancer, pancreatic cancer, melanoma, neural tumor, glioma, neuroblastoma, glioblastoma multiforme, squamous cell carcinoma, myeloma, sarcoma, lymphoma and leukemia.

[0108] The present invention has advantages and beneficial effects including, but not limited to, a novel cleavable linker (Formula (I)) for use as a prodrug, proposed herein. The linker has multiple independently modifiable sites, allowing different triggers, modified side chains, and / or active drugs to be combined to form a new compound. This makes the active drug more stable, less toxic, and more targeted while maintaining activity. The present invention provides albumin-binding camptothecin derivative prodrugs that are cleaved by β-glucuronidase, triggering the self-cleavage of the linker, as well as methods for their preparation and use.

[0109] In a specific embodiment, experiments have shown that the compound formula (J) composed of the present linker, including but not limited to formula (J1-1) and formula (J4-1), has excellent in vitro and in vivo stability and can rapidly release active drugs under conditions simulating a tumor microenvironment. After binding to albumin, the in vivo metabolic time is effectively improved. Among them, compound (J1-1) significantly prolonged the survival period of mice and inhibited tumor growth in an anti-tumor experiment in an HCT116 xenograft tumor mouse (NCG or equivalent) model. This shows that the new linker and the compound constructed based on it can achieve the purpose of rapid drug release at the tumor site, improve the drugability of the drug, and increase the anti-cancer effect of the drug.

[0110] In specific embodiments, experiments have shown that compounds of Formula (J) composed of the present linker, including but not limited to Formula (J1-2), Formula (J1-3), Formula (J2-1), Formula (L1-3), Formula (L1-4), Formula (L5-1), and Formula (L5-3), after being conjugated to multiple antibodies, produce ADC drugs with different DAR values, exhibiting anti-tumor activity in various cell lines in vitro and strong anti-tumor effects in various mouse CDX models, some of which were superior to the positive control ADC. This indicates that the novel linker and the compounds constructed based on it can exhibit excellent anti-tumor activity after conjugation with antibodies and can be used to treat various cancers such as lung cancer, breast cancer, and colon cancer.

[0262] Example 8 Antibody Preparation

[0263] The antibody light and heavy chains were constructed into expression cassettes in plasmid vectors, and the plasmids were extracted. Suspension-acclimated CHO cells were revived in OPM-CD medium (manufacturer: OPM, catalog number P83059) and cultured to a density of 2 million cells / ml with a viability of over 95% in a volume of 1000 ml. 0.5 mg of the light chain plasmid and 0.5 mg of the heavy chain plasmid were combined and dissolved in 10 ml of culture medium. 3 mg of PEI (manufacturer: Polyscience, catalog number: 24765-1) dissolved in culture medium was diluted in 10 ml of culture medium. The mixed plasmid and PEI solutions were incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes and then added dropwise to 1000 ml of cell culture medium. After incubation at 37°C for 5 days, the supernatant was harvested by centrifugation at 12,000 g for 15 minutes. The supernatant was purified by affinity chromatography and eluted with 50 mM acetic acid. The neutralized peak was replaced with PBS pH 7.4 using a 30KD ultrafiltration tube (Merck, Cat. No. UFC9030). The antibody was measured for absorbance at 280 nm, and the concentration was calculated by dividing the absorbance by the theoretical extinction coefficient.

[0264] Example 9 Preparation of Antibody Conjugates

[0265] Take 30 mg of the antibody and dilute it to 3 mg / ml with 10 mM sodium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4. Add tris(2-hydroxyethyl)phosphine hydrochloride (TCEP) stock solution (prepared from 10 mM sodium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, TCEP manufacturer: Sigma, Cat. No. C4706-2G, CAS. 51805-45-9) to ensure that the final molar concentration of TCEP is X:1 to the final molar concentration of the antibody. Incubate the antibody at 37°C for 45 minutes. Add the linker compound stock solution (prepared from DMSO to 5 mM) to ensure that the final molar concentration of the linker compound is Y:1 to the final molar concentration of the antibody. Incubate the antibody at 2-8°C for 2 hours. The reaction was terminated with cysteine ​​at a final concentration of 20 mM, and the solution was transferred to a 30KD ultrafiltration tube (Merck, product number UFC9030), placed in a centrifugal force of 3000 g at 2-8°C for liquid exchange, and the residual small molecules were reduced to one thousandth of the reaction concentration. The solution was then sterile filtered, the concentration was determined, and the solution was aliquoted and frozen.

[0266] To obtain products with different coupling ratios, adjust the molar ratio of antibody: reducing agent: linker compound between 1:X:Y, while keeping all other conditions unchanged. The DAR value of the final coupling product is determined by the test results. Generally, X=3, Y=6 can produce a conjugate with a coupling ratio of 4, while X=5, Y=15 can produce a conjugate with a coupling ratio of 8.

[0267] Antibodies and conjugates were analyzed by SEC-HPLC molecular sieve analysis using a TSKgel G3000SWXL, 7.8 mm x 30 cm, 5 μm, catalog number 08541 analytical column. Approximately 0.3 mg of sample was centrifuged in 300 μl at 10,000 g for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was collected. The mobile phase consisted of 50 mM sodium phosphate + 0.1 M sodium chloride, pH 6.8. The analytical column was connected to an Agilent 1260 HPLC at a flow rate of 0.8 ml / min. The mobile phase was flushed for at least 30 minutes until the UV baseline at 280 nm stabilized. 100 μg of sample was injected and the mobile phase was flushed for 20 minutes. The percentages of the high-molecular-weight, monomer-weight, and low-molecular-weight peaks were calculated based on the peak areas. The monomer-weight peak was used as the sample purity value.

[0268] The average number of linker payloads conjugated per antibody molecule is the coupling ratio (DAR), which is determined by hydrophobic chromatography (HIC)-HPLC using a TSKgel Butyl-NPR column, 4.6 mm × 10 cm, 2.5 μm, Catalog No. 042168. Approximately 0.3 mg of sample was added to 150 μl of mobile phase A, centrifuged at 10,000 g for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was collected. Mobile phase A consisted of 20 mM sodium phosphate + 1.5 M ammonium sulfate, pH 7.0. Mobile phase B consisted of 20 mM sodium phosphate + 20% (v / v) acetonitrile, pH 7.0. The analytical column was connected to an Agilent 1260 HPLC at a flow rate of 0.6 ml / min. Mobile phase A was rinsed for over 30 minutes until a stable UV baseline at 280 nm was achieved. A 50 μg sample was injected, and after a 2-minute rinse with mobile phase A, an 18-minute gradient elution (0% B–100% B) was performed. The elution was continued with 100% mobile phase B for 5 minutes before terminating. The percentage of each DAR value was calculated based on the peak area. The product of the percentage of each peak and the DAR value was added and then divided by the total percentage to obtain the average DAR value. The conjugates of the present invention are not limited to a DAR of 8 and can be extended to 2–8.

[0269] The conjugates are named as Target-Compound-DAR, as shown in Table 1.

[0271] Example 10 In vivo activity of conjugates

[0272] Human tumor cell lines were revived to the logarithmic growth phase with a viability greater than 90%. Immunocompromised mice (NCG or equivalent) were inoculated with varying numbers of cells, ranging from 10,000 to 1,000,000. When tumors grew to approximately 120 square millimeters, mice were divided into groups of 4 to 5 mice per group. Drugs were administered once intravenously, with the first dose occurring on the day of grouping. The inhibitory activity of each drug group was determined by comparing tumor size between the drug groups or with the saline group. The horizontal axis of the graph represents the treatment time / inoculation time (days after treatment or days after inoculation) for each drug group, and the vertical axis represents tumor volume.

[0273] Some linker compounds were conjugated to an antibody (3101) targeting B7-H3, and the activity of several conjugates in inhibiting tumor cell growth was evaluated in an immunodeficient mouse tumor transplantation model of the human lung cancer cell line Calu-6. The results are shown in Figure 5A. The tumor volumes are ranked from large to small in the order of G1>G6>G7>G8>G5>G4>G3>G2. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the activity of the conjugates of the candidate compounds and that they were better than the positive control.

[0274] Furthermore, the activity of the above-mentioned conjugates in inhibiting tumor cell growth was evaluated in an immunodeficient mouse tumor transplantation model of the human colorectal cancer cell line RKO. The results are shown in Figure 5B. The tumor volume is ranked from large to small in the order of G1 or G6>G4>G7>G2>G3>G5. The results show that the conjugate G3 of the candidate compound has better activity.

[0275] Furthermore, the activity of the above-mentioned conjugates in inhibiting tumor cell growth was evaluated in an immunodeficient mouse tumor transplantation model of the human lung cancer cell line SHP-77. The results are shown in Figure 5C. The tumor volume is ranked from large to small in the order of G1 or G6>G7>G4 or G5 or G2>G3. The results show that the conjugate G3 of the candidate compound has better activity.

[0276] Furthermore, the linker compound was optimized and synthesized, and the conjugates were conjugated. The tumor cell growth inhibition activity of the conjugates was re-evaluated in immunodeficient mouse tumor transplant models of human colorectal cancer cell line RKO and human lung cancer cell line SHP-77. The results are shown in Figure 6A. The tumor volume of the RKO model is ranked from large to small in the order of G1>G6>G2>G3>G4>G7>G5, indicating that the conjugate G5 of the candidate compound has the best activity. The results are shown in Figure 6B. The tumor volume of the SHP-77 model is ranked from large to small in the order of G1>G6>G2>G3>G4>G7>G5, indicating that the conjugate G5 of the candidate compound has the best activity.

[0277] In summary, it can be seen that the activity of the G5 conjugate in inhibiting tumor growth in vivo is slightly better than that of other groups. Further, the linker compound was conjugated to the HER2 target antibody Trastuzumab, and the activity of the conjugate in inhibiting tumor cell growth was evaluated in the immunodeficient mouse tumor transplantation model of the human breast cancer tumor cell line JIMT-1. The results are shown in Figure 7. The model tumor volume is G1>G6 or G8>G3>G2>G4>G6>G7 from large to small. The results show that the activity of the candidate compound conjugate G4 is better in the intermediate stage, or worse than or equal to the control conjugate.

[0278] Furthermore, the linker compound J2-1 was conjugated to the DLL3-targeting antibody 59H4, and the activity of the conjugate in inhibiting tumor cell growth was evaluated in an immunodeficient mouse tumor transplantation model of the human lung cancer tumor cell line NCI-H82. The results are shown in Figure 8. The tumor volumes of the model are G1>G2>G3>G2>G4>G5 from large to small. The results show that the activity of the conjugate of the candidate compound J2-1 is better than that of the control.

[0279] In summary, the antibody conjugates of linker compounds J1-2, J1-3, J2-1, and J2-2 have in vivo tumor inhibition activity that is better than or similar to that of the control conjugates.

[0280] Example 11 In vitro activity of conjugates

[0281] The in vitro activity of candidate linker compounds and their conjugates was determined. Human tumor cell lines were revived to the logarithmic growth phase. When viability was greater than 90%, 500 to 5,000 cells were seeded into 96-well plates in a 150 μl volume. The cells were incubated at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator. After approximately 20 hours, 50 μl of culture medium containing different antibody-drug conjugates was added to achieve a final drug concentration of 12 dilutions between 0 and 1,000 nM (1000 nM in the first well, followed by 10 5-fold dilutions, with the final drug concentration at zero, with each sample in duplicate). After 4 to 7 days of co-culture, the plates were removed and 50 μl of CTG detection reagent (CellTiterGlo, Promega, Cat. No. G7575) was added to each well. The cells were reacted for 2 minutes according to the kit's recommended protocol. Fluorescence intensity (MFI) was then measured using a Tecan Spark. The average MFI value of the replicate wells was taken as the Y-axis, and the log10 value (nM) of the dilution gradient was used as the X-axis to make a smooth curve graph, and the EC / IC50 value was calculated according to the four-parameter fitting.

[0282] First, the free payload of the linker compound, Deruxtecan payload Dxd (payload of Deruxtecan), J2-1 payload (payload of J2-1), J2-2 payload (payload of J2-2), and FL118 were subjected to in vitro activity assays in various tumor cells. The results are shown in FIG9 , which show that the payloads have different sensitivities to different cells.

[0283] Next, the in vitro activity of the conjugates was measured, as shown in Figure 10. There were differences in the in vitro and in vivo activity between the different antibody conjugates. Tumor inhibition activity was measured using the in vivo CDX model as a reference.

[0284] The protection content of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the inventive concept, changes and advantages that can be thought of by those skilled in the art are included in the present invention and are protected by the appended claims.
