Description

SELECTIVE DELIVERY OF AGENTS TO MYELOID-DERIVED SUPPRESSOR CELLS WITH A DENDRIMER-BASED FORMULATION CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims the benefit of and priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) to U.S. Provisional Application Number 63 / 627,659, filed January 31, 2024, titled SELECTIVE DELIVERY OF AGENTS TO MYELOID-DERIVED SUPPRESSOR CELLS WITH A DENDRIMER-BASED FORMULATION, the contents of which are incorporated herewith by reference in their entirety. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Nanoparticles have been used to deliver therapeutic payload for disease treatment. While most in vivo biodistribution studies of nanoparticles have been focused on their tissue-level accumulation and clearance1, 2, recent progress in the nanomedicine field suggested that targeting nanoparticles to immune cells can be used to modulate the immune response and to enhance therapeutic delivery to the disease region3-5.

[0003] For example, monocytic-myeloid-derived suppressor cells (M-MDSCs) are important cellular targets in cancer6. M-MDSCs are pathologically activated monocytes with potent immunosuppressive activities. Clinically, a high burden of M-MDSCs is associated with poor prognosis of many solid tumors7. In cancer, M-MDSCs help create and maintain an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME)8, 9. These cells can suppress anti-tumor T cells and promote regulatory T cells and anti-inflammatory myeloid cells8, 9. As such, there is an urgent need to develop delivery strategies to target M-MDSCs for cancer treatment. M-MDSCs are also associated with sepsis.

[0004] In addition to their immunosuppressive features, M-MDSCs, as phagocytes, could also significantly affect the in vivo fate of nanoparticles. Historic studies have established the roles of myeloid cells in clearing nanoparticles10, 11, while emerging evidence has shown that myeloid cells in circulation can take up nanoparticles and actively transport them to the inflamed tissue4, 12, 13. M- MDSCs are significantly elevated in the peripheral blood of high-grade glioblastoma patients, accounting for as much as 10% of total cells in the peripheral blood and 30% of total peripheral blood mononuclear cells14, 15. In the presence of tumor lesions, the bone marrow accelerates monopoiesis and enhances the egress of M-MDSCs to the systemic circulation, leading to significant expansion of their population in the peripheral blood and in the spleen16. Tumor constantly recruits M-MDSCs in large amounts through CCR2-mediated chemotaxis to replenish the tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs)17, 18. Because of the abundance of M-MDSCs and their constant infiltration to the tumor sites, M-MDSCs have potential in mediating nanoparticle deposition at the tumors.

[0005] Given the roles of M-MDSCs in establishing TME and mediating nanoparticle tumor- targeting, many efforts have tried to establish the correlation between nanoparticle physiochemical properties, such as size, surface charge, and targeting ligand to their targeting of M-MDSCs19-22.U1197.70243WO00 1 / 193 #13587456v2However, a significant challenge in studying the cell targeting behaviors of nanoparticles is that when nanoparticles are injected into the blood, multiple serum proteins such as immunoglobulins, fibrinogen, complement proteins, and apolipoproteins readily adsorb to the nanoparticle surface, forming a ‘protein corona’23, 24. The protein corona masks nanoparticle interactions with the cell surface and alters the nanoparticle’s cellular tropism23, 24. The nanoparticle-associated proteins dictate nanoparticle interactions with cells and more broadly their in vivo targeting behaviors, while the physical properties of nanoparticles may play a secondary role in this process.

[0006] Dendrimers represent a class of ultra-small nanoparticles with sub-10nm size and carrying drug payload on their surfaces. About 26 dendrimer-based therapeutics with various types of payloads are currently under Phase I-III clinical trials25. Systemically administrated hydroxyl-terminated PAMAM dendrimer has been shown to selectively target TAMs in murine glioblastoma (glioma) models26, 27. However, given the heterogeneous nature of TAMs, it is unclear what subset(s) are being targeted and what mechanism mediates the selective cell-targeting.

[0007] Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is a transcription factor highly activated in MDSCs that promotes angiogenesis, host immunosuppression, and tumor invasion. Clinical translation of STAT3 inhibitors has been hampered because of poor solubility and bioavailability, off-target effects, and limited efficacy in clinical trials. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0097] It is also to be understood that compounds that have the same molecular formula but differ in the nature or sequence of bonding of their atoms or the arrangement of their atoms in space are termed “isomers”. Isomers that differ in the arrangement of their atoms in space are termed “stereoisomers”.

[0098] Stereoisomers that are not mirror images of one another are termed “diastereomers” and those that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other are termed “enantiomers”. When a compound has an asymmetric center, for example, it is bonded to four different groups, a pair of enantiomers is possible. An enantiomer can be characterized by the absolute configuration of its asymmetric center and is described by the R- and S-sequencing rules of Cahn and Prelog, or by the manner in which the molecule rotates the plane of polarized light and designated as dextrorotatory or levorotatory (i.e., as (+) or (−)-isomers respectively).

In some embodiments, the term refers to an increase of the level of enzyme response, e.g., TLR7 or STING response, to a level that is greater than 100%, greater than 125%, greater than 150%, greater than 175%, greater than 200%, greater than 300%, greater than 400%, greater than 500%, greater than 600%, greater than 700%, greater than 800%, greater than 900%, or greater than 1000% of an initial level, which may, for example, be a baseline level of enzyme response.

[0115] The term “antagonist” or “antagonism” in the context of enzymes, for example, refers to blocking activation of a receptor to prevent an enzyme response. In some embodiments, the term refers to a reduction of the level of enzyme response, to a level that is statistically significantly lowerU1197.70243WO00 25 / 193 #13587456v2than an initial level, which may, for example, be a baseline level of enzyme response. In some embodiments, the term refers to a reduction of the level of enzyme response, to a level that is less than 75%, less than 50%, less than 40%, less than 30%, less than 25%, less than 20%, less than 10%, less than 9%, less than 8%, less than 7%, less than 6%, less than 5%, less than 4%, less than 3%, less than 2%, less than 1%, less than 0.5%, less than 0.1%, less than 0.01%, less than 0.001%, or less than 0.0001% of an initial level, which may, for example, be a baseline level of enzyme response.

[0116] A “proliferative disease” refers to a disease that occurs due to abnormal growth or extension by the multiplication of cells (Walker, Cambridge Dictionary of Biology; Cambridge University Press: Cambridge, UK, 1990). A proliferative disease may be associated with: 1) the pathological proliferation of normally quiescent cells; 2) the pathological migration of cells from their normal location (e.g., metastasis of neoplastic cells); 3) the pathological expression of proteolytic enzymes such as the matrix metalloproteinases (e.g., collagenases, gelatinases, and elastases); or 4) the pathological angiogenesis as in proliferative retinopathy and tumor metastasis. Exemplary proliferative diseases include cancers (i.e., “malignant neoplasms”), benign neoplasms, angiogenesis, inflammatory diseases, and autoimmune diseases.

[0117] The term “angiogenesis” refers to the physiological process through which new blood vessels form from pre-existing vessels. Angiogenesis is distinct from vasculogenesis, which is the de novo formation of endothelial cells from mesoderm cell precursors. The first vessels in a developing embryo form through vasculogenesis, after which angiogenesis is responsible for most blood vessel growth during normal or abnormal development. Angiogenesis is a vital process in growth and development, as well as in wound healing and in the formation of granulation tissue. However, angiogenesis is also a fundamental step in the transition of tumors from a benign state to a malignant one, leading to the use of angiogenesis inhibitors in the treatment of cancer. Angiogenesis may be chemically stimulated by angiogenic proteins, such as growth factors (e.g., VEGF). “Pathological angiogenesis” refers to abnormal (e.g., excessive or insufficient) angiogenesis that amounts to and / or is associated with a disease.

[0118] The terms “neoplasm” and “tumor” are used herein interchangeably and refer to an abnormal mass of tissue wherein the growth of the mass surpasses and is not coordinated with the growth of a normal tissue. A neoplasm or tumor may be “benign” or “malignant,” depending on the following characteristics: degree of cellular differentiation (including morphology and functionality), rate of growth, local invasion, and metastasis. A “benign neoplasm” is generally well differentiated, has characteristically slower growth than a malignant neoplasm, and remains localized to the site of origin. In addition, a benign neoplasm does not have the capacity to infiltrate, invade, or metastasize to distant sites. Exemplary benign neoplasms include, but are not limited to, lipoma, chondroma, adenomas, acrochordon, senile angiomas, seborrheic keratoses, lentigos, and sebaceous hyperplasias. In some cases, certain “benign” tumors may later give rise to malignant neoplasms, which may result from additional genetic changes in a subpopulation of the tumor’s neoplastic cells, and these tumorsU1197.70243WO00 26 / 193 #13587456v2are referred to as “pre-malignant neoplasms.” An exemplary pre-malignant neoplasm is a teratoma. In contrast, a “malignant neoplasm” is generally poorly differentiated (anaplasia) and has characteristically rapid growth accompanied by progressive infiltration, invasion, and destruction of the surrounding tissue. Furthermore, a malignant neoplasm generally has the capacity to metastasize to distant sites. The term “metastasis,” “metastatic,” or “metastasize” refers to the spread or migration of cancerous cells from a primary or original tumor to another organ or tissue and is typically identifiable by the presence of a “secondary tumor” or “secondary cell mass” of the tissue type of the primary or original tumor and not of that of the organ or tissue in which the secondary (metastatic) tumor is located. For example, a prostate cancer that has migrated to bone is said to be metastasized prostate cancer and includes cancerous prostate cancer cells growing in bone tissue.

[0119] The term “cancer” refers to a class of diseases characterized by the development of abnormal cells that proliferate uncontrollably and have the ability to infiltrate and destroy normal body tissues.

[0130] The terms “polydispersity index” or “PDI” refer to the degree of non-uniformity of a size distribution of particles (e.g., the broadness of a molecular weight distribution). PDI can be measured through various techniques including dynamic light scattering (DLS).

[0131] The term “zeta potential” refers to the potential difference between the surface of a particle and the surrounding liquid the particles are dispersed in (e.g., the surface charge of nanoparticles in solution).

The method for making them is known to those ofU1197.70243WO00 33 / 193 #13587456v2skill in the art and generally, involves a two-step iterative reaction sequence that produces concentric shells (generations) of dendritic 0-alanine units around a central initiator core. This PAMAM core- shell architecture grows linearly in diameter as a function of added shells (generations).

In some embodiments, mass percentage refers to a molecular weight (Da) percentage of X (e.g., of conjugated agent) in theU1197.70243WO00 82 / 193 #13587456v2compound of Formula (I). In some embodiments, mass percentage can be determined by the general formula of: (X (e.g., conjugated agent) MW) / (compound of Formula (I) MW) × 100. For example, in some embodiments, (X (e.g., conjugated agent) MW) can be determined by calculating or approximating the molecular weight of X (e.g., of a conjugated agent) as a single molecule or compound (conjugated or unconjugated), and multiplying this value by the number of terminal sites at which X (e.g., of conjugated agent) is present in the compound of Formula (I) (e.g., multiplying by p). In some embodiments, (X (e.g., conjugated agent) MW) can be determined by calculating or approximating the sum of the atomic mass of all atoms which form X (e.g., conjugated agent) in the compound of Formula (I). The value for (X (e.g., conjugated agent) MW) can be taken as a fraction of total molecular weight of the compound of Formula (I) (compound of Formula (I) MW), and multiplied by 100 to provide a mass percentage. In some embodiments, mass percentage can be determined by experimental or empirical means. For example, in some embodiments, mass percentage can be determined using proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) or other analytical methods known in the art.
