CONJUGATES TARGETING FIBROBLAST ACTIVATION PROTEIN AND USES THEREOFCROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims priority benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 599,982, filed November 16, 2023, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0002] The present invention generally relates to compounds which modulate the Fibroblast Activation Protein (FAP) for the active delivery of various payloads (e.g., cytotoxic drugs, proteins, immunomodulators, radioactive components, metal chelating groups / chelating agents, fluorescent dyes or contrast agents) at the site of action. The present invention relates to the development of FAP ligands for targeting applications, in particular diagnostic methods and / or methods for therapy or surgery in relation to a disease or disorder, such as cancer, inflammation or another disease characterized by overexpression of FAP.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0003] Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is highly overexpressed in stromal tissue of various cancers. Fibro-proliferative response in tumors such as breast, colon, and pancreatic cancer, the tumor stroma (TS) forms > 90% of the tumor mass. The TS consists of a large number of fibroblasts, particularly cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). The CAFs contributes to tumor growth, migration, and progression, thus, its valuable for tumor diagnosis and also as a therapeutic target. The expression of fibroblast-activating protein alpha (FAP) is a unique feature of CAFs. FAP is a 97-kDa type II membrane-bound glycoprotein from the dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV4) family and shows dipeptidyl peptidase and endopeptidase activity. The endopeptidase activity of FAP distinguishes it from other members of the DPPIV family. Substrates of FAP endopeptidase activity are type I collagen, al -antitrypsin, and several neuropeptides. FAP is reported to play an essential role in embryonic development, and tissue remodeling. FAP expression is low in normal adult tissues but its high expression is reported in wound healing, arthritis, atherosclerotic plaques, fibrosis, and > 90% of epithelial cancers. In the CAFs of many epithelial tumors, FAP is highly expressed and is associated with poorer cancer prognosis. Overall, FAP activity is associated with cancer development and progression.
[0004] While FAP has been recognized as a potential diagnostic or therapeutic cancer target, FAP targeted delivery of a payload including one or more drugs and / or agents after systemic administration is desired. A therapeutic / diagnostic payload like proteins, immunomodulators, radioactive components, metal chelating groups or chelating agents, fluorescent dyes or contrast agents, can be conjugated to a FAP ligand. FAP-targeting antibodies have been utilized as ligands for developing antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). OMTX705 is a novel antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) molecule targeting fibroblast-activating protein a (FAPa). It has reached clinical stages and demonstrates activities in chemotherapy and Pembrolizumab-Resistant solid tumor models (Clin Cancer Res (2020) 26 (13): 3420-3430).
[0005] However, small molecule ligands have several advantages compared to bigger molecules, peptides and antibodies, as it offers rapid and efficient tumor penetration, lower immunogenicity, and lower manufacturing costs. Small molecule-drug conjugates (SMDCs) have been reported as effective approaches for targeted anticancer therapy. Therefore, there remains a need for conjugates comprising improved small-molecule binders (ligands) of fibroblast activation protein (FAP).SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

It is intended and understood that an effective dosage of a compound or salt thereof, or pharmaceutical composition may or may not be achieved in conjunction with another drug, compound, or pharmaceutical composition. Thus, an “effective dosage” may be considered in the context of administering one or more therapeutic agents, and a single agent may be considered to be given in an effective amount if, in conjunction with one or more other agents, a desirable result may be or is achieved.

Linkers can be cleavable or non-cleavable. Cleavable linkers are linkers that are cleaved by intracellular metabolism following internalization, e.g., cleavage via hydrolysis, reduction, or enzymatic reaction. Non-cleavable linkers are linkers that release an attached payload via lysosomal degradation of the antibody following internalization. Suitable linkers include, but are not limited to, acid-labile linkers, hydrolytically-labile linkers, enzymatically cleavable linkers, reduction labile linkers, self-immolative linkers, and non-cleavable linkers.
