Description

A STING agonist and its preparation and application

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This application claims the benefit of Chinese Application No. 2023117175178, filed on December 13, 2023. Said application No. 2023117175178 is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Technical Field

[0003] The present invention relates to the field of medicine, and in particular, to a STING agonist. The present invention also relates to the preparation and use of the STING agonist. Background Art

[0004] The stimulator of interferon genes (STING) is a crucial adaptor protein ubiquitously expressed in mammals and localized to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. It plays a crucial role in immune responses mediated by exogenous or endogenous DNA. DNA from viruses, bacteria, or the cytoplasm itself is recognized by the cytoplasmic DNA sensor cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS). cGAS catalyzes the ligation of two nucleotides to form cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs, such as 2′,3′-cGAMP). CDNs act as second messengers and bind to STING, activating it. CDN binding to the STING dimer vesicle promotes STING's migration from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the perinuclear Golgi apparatus (GA). Simultaneously, TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) is recruited to the highly conserved CTT region (C-terminal tail domain) of STING, where it phosphorylates and activates TBK1. Activated TBK1 phosphorylates the interferon regulatory factors IRF3 and IRF7, promoting their dimerization and nuclear translocation, ultimately activating the transcription of type I interferon (IFN) and inflammatory cytokine genes. By inducing the production of type I interferons and proinflammatory cytokines, STING eliminates invading pathogens. STING not only plays a crucial role in microbial-induced innate immune responses but also participates in various pathophysiological processes, including tumor immunity, autoimmune inflammation, and autophagy. Tumor antigen-specific CD8+ T cells are a crucial component of the anti-tumor immune response. However, while many cancer patients display endogenous anti-tumor T cell responses, this alone is insufficient to completely eliminate the tumor. Checkpoint blockade therapies, such as PD-1 / PD-L1 antibodies, are currently very effective in overcoming tumor-induced T cell suppression. However, this efficacy is poor when patients lack spontaneous T cell responses. Exogenous STING agonists have the potential to trigger innate immune activation, promoting the priming and recruitment of tumor-specific CD8+ T cells. This, in turn, can control the adaptive immune response that controls tumor growth when used as monotherapy or in combination with checkpoint blockade therapy. Therefore, they represent a promising cancer immunotherapy. Currently, the development of STING agonist anti-tumor drugs is very active. The first generation of STING agonists suitable for human use were cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs) and their derivatives. CDNs, as STING binding ligands, have a direct effect on STING activation. However, due to the rapid clearance of endogenous CDNs from the body and their poor membrane permeability, their druggability is unsatisfactory. The design and synthesis of non-cyclic dinucleotide derivatives has become a research hotspot for STING agonists.However, the efficacy of STING pathway agonists depends on their structural characteristics and the desired route of administration, influenced by factors such as drug stability, immune cell toxicity, drug targeting, and differential immune cell uptake. Currently, clinical trials of drugs targeting STING-related pathways are in the early stages, and further design and optimization of these agonists will greatly enhance their potential for successful clinical application.

Thus, in the present therapeutic methods, the term "administering" encompasses treating the various conditions described with a specifically disclosed compound or with a compound that may not be specifically disclosed but is converted in vivo to a specific compound upon administration to a patient. Conventional procedures for selecting and preparing suitable prodrug derivatives are described, for example, in "Design of Prodrugs," edited by H. Bundgaard, Elsevier, 1985.
