[0001] HETEROCYCLIC CONJUGATES AND USES THEREOF

[0002] BACKGROUND

[0003] CROSS-REFERENCE

[0004]

[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 550,553, filed February 6, 2024; and U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 700,538, filed September 27, 2024, each incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

[0005] SEQUENCE LISTING

[0006]

[0002] The instant application contains a Sequence Listing which has been submitted electronically in XML format and is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Said XML copy, created on February 4, 2025, is named 56690_786_602_SL.xml and is 18,724 bytes in size.

[0007] BACKGROUND

[0008]

[0003] Cancer (e.g., tumor, neoplasm, metastases) is the second leading cause of death worldwide estimated to be responsible for about 10 million deaths each year. Many types of cancers are marked with mutations in one or more proteins involved in various signaling pathways leading to unregulated growth of cancerous cells. In some cases, about 25 to 30 percent (%) of tumors are known to harbor Rat sarcoma (Ras) mutations. In particular, mutations in the Kirsten Ras oncogene (K-Ras) are one of the most frequent Ras mutations detected in human cancers, including lung adenocarcinomas (LUADs) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).

[0009]

[0004] Ras proteins have long been considered “undruggable,” due to, in part, high affinity to their substrate guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP) and / or their smooth surfaces without any obvious targeting region. The specific G12C Ras gene mutation has been identified as a druggable target to which a number of G12C specific inhibitors have been developed. However, such therapeutics are still of limited application, as the G12C mutation in Ras exhibits a much lower prevalence rate as compared to other known Ras mutations, such as G12D and G12V. Drug resistance and lack of durability impose further limitations to such therapeutics.

[0010] SUMMARY

[0011]

[0005] In view of the foregoing, there remains a considerable need for a new design of therapeutics and diagnostics that can specifically target Ras, including wildtype Ras, mutants and / or associated proteins of Ras to reduce Ras signaling output, as well as other signaling pathways in conjunction with the Ras signaling. Of particular interest are KRas inhibitors, including pan KRas inhibitors capable of inhibiting two or more KRas mutants and / or wildtype KRas within this given Ras isoform (e.g., inhibitors targeting mutant KRas proteins such as KRas G12D, G12C, G12S, G13D, and / or G12V, for the treatment of Ras-associated diseases (e.g., cancer). Such compositions and methods can be particularly useful for treating a variety of diseases including, but not limited to, cancers and neoplasia conditions. The present disclosure addresses these needs, and provides additional advantages applicable for diagnosis, prognosis, and / or treatment for a wide diversity of diseases.

[0094]

[0048] It will be understood by those skilled in the art that substituents can themselves be substituted, if appropriate. Unless specifically stated as “unsubstituted”, references to chemical moieties herein are understood to include substituted variants. For example, reference to a “heteroaryl” group or moiety implicitly includes both substituted and unsubstituted variants.

[0095]

[0049] Where bivalent substituent groups are specified herein by their conventional chemical formulae, written from left to right, they are intended to encompass the isomer that would result from writing the structure from right to left, e.g., -CH2O- is also intended to encompass -OCH2-.

[0096]

[0050] “Optional” or “optionally” means that the subsequently described event or circumstances may or may not occur, and that the description includes instances where the event or circumstance occurs and instances in which it does not. For example, an “optionally substituted” group may be either unsubstituted or substituted.

[0097]

[0051] Compounds of the present disclosure also include crystalline and amorphous forms of those compounds, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and active metabolites having the same type of activity, including, for example, polymorphs, pseudopolymorphs, solvates, hydrates, unsolvated polymorphs (including anhydrates), conformational polymorphs, amorphous forms of the compounds, and mixtures thereof.

[0098]

[0052] The compounds described herein may exhibit their natural isotopic abundance, or one or more of the atoms may be artificially enriched in a particular isotope having the same atomic number, but an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number predominantly found in nature. All isotopic variations of the compounds of the present disclosure, whether radioactive or not, are encompassed within the scope of the present disclosure. For example, hydrogen has three naturally occurring isotopes, denoted1H (protium),2H (deuterium), and3H (tritium). Protium is the most abundant isotope of hydrogen in nature. Enriching for deuterium may afford certain therapeutic advantages, such as increased in vivo half-life and / or exposure, or may provide a compound useful for investigating in vivo routes of drug elimination and metabolism. Examples of isotopes that may be incorporated into compounds of the present disclosure include, but are not limited to,2H,3H,11C,14C,15N,18O,17O,35S,36Cl, and18F. Of particular interest are compounds of Formula (I), (I-a), (I-b), or (I-c) enriched in tritium or carbon- 14, which can be used, for example, in tissue distribution studies; compounds of the disclosure enriched in deuterium — especially at a site of metabolism — resulting, for example, in compounds having greater metabolic stability; and compounds of Formula (I), (I-a), (I-b), or (I-c) enriched in a positron emitting isotope, such as11C,18F,15O and13N, which can be used, for example, in Positron Emission Topography (PET) studies. Isotopically-enriched compounds may be prepared by conventional techniques well known to those skilled in the art.

[0099]

[0053] As used herein, the phrase “of the formula”, “having the formula” or “having the structure” is not intended to be limiting and is used in the same way that the term “comprising” is commonly used. For example, if one structure is depicted, it is understood that all stereoisomer and tautomer forms are encompassed, unless stated otherwise.

[0100]

[0054] Certain compounds described herein contain one or more asymmetric centers and can thus give rise to enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomeric forms, the asymmetric centers of which can be defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (R)- or (S)-. In some embodiments, in order to optimize the therapeutic activity of the compounds of the disclosure, e.g., to treat cancer, it may be desirable that the carbon atoms have a particular configuration (e.g., (R,R), (S,S), (S,R), or (R,S)) or are enriched in a stereoisomeric form having such configuration. The compounds of the disclosure may be provided as racemic mixtures. Accordingly, the disclosure relates to racemic mixtures, pure stereoisomers (e.g., enantiomers and diastereomers), stereoisomer-enriched mixtures, and the like, unless otherwise indicated. When a chemical structure is depicted herein without any stereochemistry, it is understood that all possible stereoisomers are encompassed by such structure. Similarly, when a particular stereoisomer is shown or named herein, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that minor amounts of other stereoisomers may be present in the compositions of the disclosure unless otherwise indicated, provided that the utility of the composition as a whole is not eliminated by the presence of such other isomers. Individual stereoisomers may be obtained by numerous methods that are known in the art, including preparation using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, resolution using chiral chromatography using a suitable chiral stationary phase or support, or by chemically converting them into diastereomers, separating the diastereoisomers by conventional means such as chromatography or recrystallization, then regenerating the original stereoisomer.

[0101]

[0055] Additionally, where applicable, all cis-trans or E / Z isomers (geometric isomers), tautomeric forms and topoisomeric forms of the compounds described herein are included with the scope of the disclosure unless otherwise specified.

[0056] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable” refers to a material that is not biologically or otherwise unacceptable when used in the subject compositions and methods. For example, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” refers to a material — such as an adjuvant, excipient, glidant, sweetening agent, diluent, preservative, dye, colorant, flavor enhancer, surfactant, wetting agent, dispersing agent, suspending agent, stabilizer, isotonic agent, solvent or emulsifier — that can be incorporated into a composition and administered to a patient without causing unacceptable biological effects or interacting in an unacceptable manner with other components of the composition. Such pharmaceutically acceptable materials typically have met the required standards of toxicological and manufacturing testing, and include those materials identified as suitable inactive ingredients by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

[0102]

[0057] The terms “salt” and “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refer to a salt prepared from a base or an acid. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are suitable for administration to a patient, such as a mammal (for example, salts having acceptable mammalian safety for a given dosage regime). Salts can be formed from inorganic bases, organic bases, inorganic acids and organic acids. In addition, when a compound contains both a basic moiety, such as an amine, pyridine or imidazole, and an acidic moiety, such as a carboxylic acid or tetrazole, zwitterions may be formed and are included within the term “salt” as used herein. Preferred pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds described herein are pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts and pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts.

[0103]

[0058] “Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt” refers to those salts which retain the biological effectiveness and properties of the free bases, which are not biologically or otherwise undesirable, and which are formed with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, hydroiodic acid, hydrofluoric acid, phosphorous acid, and the like. Also included are salts that are formed with organic acids such as aliphatic mono- and dicarboxy lie acids, phenyl-substituted alkanoic acids, hydroxy alkanoic acids, alkanedioic acids, aromatic acids, aliphatic and aromatic sulfonic acids, etc., and include, for example, acetic acid, trifluoro acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid, and the like.

Also contemplated are salts of amino acids, such as arginates, gluconates, and galacturonates (see, for example, Berge S.M. et al., “Pharmaceutical Salts,” Journal of Pharmaceutical Science, 66: 1-19 (1997)). Acid addition salts of basic compounds are, in some embodiments, prepared by contacting the free base forms with a sufficient amount of the desired acid to produce the salt according to methods and techniques with which a skilled artisan is familiar.

[0104]

[0059] “Pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salt” refers to those salts that retain the biological effectiveness and properties of the free acids, which are not biologically or otherwise undesirable. These salts are prepared from addition of an inorganic base or an organic base to the free acid. Pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts are, in some embodiments, formed with metals or amines, such as alkali and alkaline earth metals or organic amines. Salts derived from inorganic bases include, but are not limited to, sodium, potassium, lithium, ammonium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, aluminum salts and the like. Salts derived from organic bases include, but are not limited to, salts of primary, secondary, and tertiary amines, substituted amines including naturally occurring substituted amines, cyclic amines and basic ion exchange resins, for example, isopropylamine, trimethylamine, diethylamine, triethylamine, tripropylamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine, 2-dimethylaminoethanol, 2-diethylaminoethanol, dicyclohexylamine, lysine, arginine, histidine, caffeine, procaine, A,A-dibenzylethylenediamine, chloroprocaine, hydrabamine, choline, betaine, ethylenediamine, ethylenedianiline, V-methy Iglucamine, glucosamine, methylglucamine, theobromine, purines, piperazine, piperidine, V-ethylpiperidme. poly amine resins and the like. See Berge et al., supra.

[0105]

[0060] The term “effective amount” or “therapeutically effective amount” refers to the amount of an agent that is sufficient to effect beneficial or desired results. The therapeutically effective amount may vary depending upon one or more of: the subject and disease condition being treated, the weight and age of the subject, the severity of the disease condition, the manner of administration and the like, which can readily be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art. An effective amount of an active agent may be administered in a single dose or in multiple doses. A component may be described herein as having at least an effective amount, or at least an amount effective, such as that associated with a particular goal or purpose, such as any described herein. The term “effective amount” also applies to a dose that will provide an image for detection by an appropriate imaging method. The specific dose may vary depending on one or more of: the particular agent chosen, the dosing regimen to be followed, whether it is administered in combination with other compounds, timing of administration, the tissue to be imaged, and the physical delivery system in which it is carried.

[0106]

[0061] As used herein, “treating” or “treatment” refers to an approach for obtaining beneficial or desired results with respect to a disease, disorder, or medical condition (such as cancer) in a subject, including but not limited to the following: (a) ameliorating the disease or medical condition, e.g., eliminating or causing regression of the disease or medical condition in a subject; (b) suppressing the disease or medical condition, e.g., slowing or arresting the development of the disease or medical condition in a subject; or (c) alleviating symptoms of the disease or medical condition in a subject. For example, “treating cancer” would include preventing cancer from reoccurring, ameliorating cancer, suppressing cancer, and alleviating the symptoms of cancer. Also, a therapeutic benefit is achieved with the eradication or amelioration of one or more of the physiological symptoms associated with the underlying disorder such that an improvement is observed in the subject, notwithstanding that the subject may still be afflicted with the underlying disorder.

[0107]

[0062] A “therapeutic effect”, as that term is used herein, encompasses a therapeutic benefit and / or prophylactic benefit as described above. A prophylactic effect includes delaying or eliminating the appearance of a disease or condition, delaying or eliminating the onset of symptoms of a disease or condition, slowing, halting, or reversing the progression of a disease or condition, or any combination thereof.

[0108]

[0063] The terms “antagonist” and “inhibitor” are used interchangeably, and they refer to a compound having the ability to inhibit a biological function (e.g., activity, expression, binding, protein-protein interaction) of a target protein (e.g., K-Ras). Accordingly, the terms “antagonist” and “inhibitor” are defined in the context of the biological role of the target protein. While preferred antagonists herein specifically interact with (e.g., bind to) the target, compounds that inhibit a biological activity of the target protein by interacting with other members of the signal transduction pathway of which the target protein is a member are also specifically included within this definition.

[0064] The term “selective inhibition” or “selectively inhibit” refers to the ability of a biologically active agent to preferentially reduce the target signaling activity as compared to off-target signaling activity, via direct or indirect interaction with the target.

[0109]

[0065] The terms “subject” and “patient” refer to an animal, such as a mammal, for example a human. The methods described herein can be useful in both human therapeutics and veterinary applications. In some embodiments, the subject is a mammal, such as a human. “Mammal” includes humans and both domestic animals such as laboratory animals and household pets (e.g., cats, dogs, swine, cattle, sheep, goats, horses, rabbits), and nondomestic animals such as wildlife and the like.

[0110]

[0066] The terms “therapeutic agent”, “therapeutic capable agent” or “treatment agent” are used interchangeably and refer to a molecule or compound that confers some beneficial effect upon administration to a subject. The beneficial effect includes enablement of diagnostic determinations; amelioration of a disease, symptom, disorder, or pathological condition; reducing or preventing the onset of a disease, symptom, disorder or condition; and generally counteracting a disease, symptom, disorder or pathological condition.

[0111]

[0067] The terms “polypeptide”, “peptide” and “protein” are used interchangeably herein to refer to polymers of amino acids of any length. The polymer may be linear or branched, it may comprise modified amino acids, and it may be interrupted by non-amino acids. The terms also encompass an amino acid polymer that has been modified; for example, disulfide bond formation, glycosylation, lipidation, acetylation, phosphorylation, or any other manipulation, such as conjugation with a labeling component. As used herein the term “amino acid” refers to either natural and / or unnatural or synthetic amino acids, including glycine and both the D or L optical isomers, and amino acid analogs and peptidomimetics.

[0112]

[0068] The terms “polynucleotide”, “nucleotide sequence”, “nucleic acid” and “oligonucleotide” are used interchangeably. They refer to a polymeric form of nucleotides of any length, either deoxyribonucleotides or ribonucleotides, or analogs thereof. Polynucleotides may have any three-dimensional structure, and may perform any function, known or unknown. The following are non-limiting examples of polynucleotides: coding or noncoding regions of a gene or gene fragment, loci (locus) defined from linkage analysis, exons, introns, messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA, ribosomal RNA, short interfering RNA (siRNA), short-hairpin RNA (shRNA), micro-RNA (miRNA), ribozymes, cDNA, recombinant polynucleotides, branched polynucleotides, plasmids, vectors, isolated DNA of any sequence, isolated RNA of any sequence, nucleic acid probes, and primers. A polynucleotide may comprise one or more modified nucleotides, such as methylated nucleotides and nucleotide analogs, such as peptide nucleic acid (PNA), morpholino and locked nucleic acid (LNA), glycol nucleic acid (GNA), threose nucleic acid (TNA), 2 ’-fluoro, 2’-OMe, and phosphorothiolated DNA. If present, modifications to the nucleotide structure may be imparted before or after assembly of the polymer. The sequence of nucleotides may be interrupted by non-nucleotide components. A polynucleotide may be further modified after polymerization, such as by conjugation with a labeling component or other conjugation target.

[0113]

[0069] As used herein, “expression” refers to the process by which a polynucleotide is transcribed from a DNA template (such as into an mRNA or other RNA transcript) and / or the process by which a transcribed mRNA is subsequently translated into peptides, polypeptides, or proteins. Transcripts and encoded polypeptides may be collectively referred to as “gene product.” If the polynucleotide is derived from genomic DNA, expression may include splicing of the mRNA in a eukaryotic cell.

[0114]

[0070] An “antigen” is a moiety or molecule that contains an epitope, and, as such, also specifically binds to an antibody. An “antigen binding unit” may be whole or a fragment (or fragments) of a full-length antibody, a structural variant thereof, a functional variant thereof, or a combination thereof. A full-length antibody may be, for example, a monoclonal, recombinant, chimeric, deimmunized, humanized and human antibody.

[0115]

[0071] The terms “antibody” and “antibodies” encompass any antigen binding units, including without limitation: monoclonal antibodies, human antibodies, humanized antibodies, camelised antibodies, chimeric antibodies, and any other epitope -binding fragments. Antibodies can come in different varieties known as isotypes or classes In humans there are five antibody classes known as IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, which are further subdivided into subclasses such as IgA1, IgA2.

[0116]

[0072] The term “in vivo” refers to an event that takes place in a subject’s body. The term “ex vivo” refers to an event that first takes place outside of the subject’s body for a subsequent in vivo application into a subject’s body. For example, an ex vivo preparation may involve preparation of cells outside of a subject’s body for the purpose of introduction of the prepared cells into the same or a different subject’s body. The term “in vitro” refers to an event that takes place outside of a subject’s body. For example, an in vitro assay encompasses any assay run outside of a subject’s body. In vitro assays encompass cell-based assays in which cells alive or dead are employed. In vitro assays also encompass a cell-free assay in which no intact cells are employed.

[0117]

[0073] The disclosure is also meant to encompass the in vivo metabolic products of the disclosed compounds. Such products may result from, for example, the oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis, amidation, esterification, and the like of the administered compound, primarily due to enzymatic processes. Accordingly, the disclosure includes compounds produced by a process comprising administering a compound disclosed herein to a mammal for a period of time sufficient to yield a metabolic product thereof. Such products are typically identified by administering a radiolabeled compound of the disclosure in a detectable dose to an animal, such as rat, mouse, guinea pig, monkey, or to a human, allowing sufficient time for metabolism to occur, and isolating its conversion products from the urine, blood or other biological samples.

[0118]

In some embodiments, a mutation can be a substitution (e.g., a substituted amino acid), insertion (e.g., addition of one or more amino acids), or deletion (e.g., removal of one or more amino acids). In some embodiments, two or more mutations can be consecutive, non-consecutive, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, a mutation can be present at any position of Ras. In some embodiments, a mutation can be present at position 12, 13, 62, 92, 95, 96 (e.g., Y96D), or any combination thereof of Ras relative to SEQ ID No. 1 when optimally aligned. In some embodiments, a mutant Ras may comprise about or at least about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, or more than 50 mutations. In some embodiments, a mutant Ras may comprise up to about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, or 50 mutations. In some embodiments, the mutant Ras is about or up to about 500, 400, 300, 250, 240, 233, 230, 220, 219, 210, 208, 206, 204, 200, 195, 190, 189, 188, 187, 186, 185, 180, 175, 174, 173, 172, 171, 170, 169, 168, 167, 166, 165, 160, 155, 150, 125, 100, 90, 80, 70, 60, 50, or fewer than 50 ammo acids in length. In some embodiments, an amino acid of a mutation is a proteinogenic, natural, standard, non-standard, non- canonical, essential, non-essential, or non-natural amino acid. In some embodiments, an amino acid of a mutation has a positively charged side chain, a negatively charged side chain, a polar uncharged side chain, a non-polar side chain, a hydrophobic side chain, a hydrophilic side chain, an aliphatic side chain, an aromatic side chain, a cyclic side chain, an acyclic side chain, a basic side chain, or an acidic side chain. In some embodiments, a mutation comprises a reactive moiety. In some embodiments, a substituted amino acid comprises a reactive moiety. In some embodiments, a mutant Ras can be further modified, such as by conjugation with a detectable label. In some embodiments, a mutant Ras is a full-length or truncated polypeptide. For example, a mutant Ras can be a truncated polypeptide comprising residues 1-169 or residues 11-183 (e.g., residues 11-183 of a mutant RALA or mutant RALB).

[0120]

[0076] As used herein, the term “corresponding to” or “corresponds to” as applied to an amino acid residue in a polypeptide sequence refers to the correspondence of such amino acid relative to a reference sequence when optimally aligned (e.g., taking into consideration of gaps, insertions and mismatches; wherein alignment may be primary sequence alignment or three-dimensional structural alignment of the folded proteins). For instance, the serine residue in a K-Ras G12S mutant refers to the serine corresponding to residue 12 of SEQ ID No. 4, which can serve as a reference sequence. For instance, the aspartate residue in a K-Ras G12D mutant refers to the aspartate corresponding to residue 12 of SEQ ID No. 2, which can serve as a reference sequence. When an amino acid of a mutant Ras protein corresponds to an amino acid position in the WT Ras protein, it will be understood that although the mutant Ras protein amino acid may be a different amino acid (e.g., G12D, wherein the wildtype G at position 12 is replaced by an aspartate at position 12 of SEQ ID. No. 1), the mutant amino acid is at the position corresponding to the wildtype amino acid (e.g., of SEQ ID No. 1). In embodiments, a modified Ras mutant protein disclosed herein may comprise truncations at the C-terminus, or truncations at the N-terminal end preceding the serine residue. The serine residue in such N-terminal truncated modified mutant is still considered corresponding to position 12 of SEQ ID No. 1. In addition, an aspartate residue at position 12 of SEQ ID No. 2 finds a corresponding residue in SEQ ID Nos. 6 and 8.

[0121]

[0077] The term “leaving group” is used herein in accordance with its well understood meaning in Chemistry and refers to an atom or group of atoms which breaks away from the rest of the molecule, taking with it the electron pair which used to be the bond between the leaving group and the rest of the molecule.

[0122] Conjugates

[0123]

[0078] Disclosed herein are conjugates that comprise an antigen binding unit and a KRAS inhibitor. A subject conjugate exhibits one or more advantageous properties as compared to the corresponding KRAS small molecule inhibitor in the conjugate. For example, a subject conjugate may possess intramolecular synergy mediated by the antigen binding unit targeting a first antigen and a KRAS inhibitor, both together synergistically reduce signaling output of the first antigen or KRAS. In another example, a subject conjugate possesses intramolecular synergy mediated by the antigen binding unit targeting a first antigen, and a KRAS inhibitor, both together synergistically reduce signaling output of the first antigen and KRAS. A conjugate may also improve cell permeability of a small molecule KRAS inhibitor by conjugating to an antibody or fragment thereof that is internalized into the cell upon specific binding to its antigen. A conjugate may also improve cell permeability of an antigen binding unit by conjugating to it a small molecule KRAS inhibitor. A conjugate may also improve tolerability or reduce toxicity of a small molecule KRAS inhibitor by conjugating the small molecule KRAS inhibitor to an antigen binding unit. A conjugate may also provide an enhanced overall therapeutic index via the intramolecular synergy, improved cell permeability of the KRAS inhibitor, reduced off-target toxicity mediated by the KRAS inhibitor, and / or enhance pharmacokinetics profile of the KRAS inhibitor when conjugated to an antigen binding unit. One or more desired advantageous properties of a subject conjugate may be greater than (i) the effect of the KRAS inhibitor alone, (ii) the effect of the antigen binding unit alone, and / or (iii) the sum of the effect the KRAS inhibitor and the antigen binding unit when administered individually (e.g., the sum of the individual effects). The effect of a subject conjugate can be at least about 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 100%, 110%, 120%, 150%, 200%, 300%, 400%, 500%, 600%, 700%, 800%, 900%, 1,000%, 5,000%, or more than (i) the effect of the KRAS inhibitor alone, (ii) the effect of the antigen binding unit alone, and / or (iii) the sum of individual effects. The effect can be any measurable effect including but not limited to an enhancement of a therapeutic effect of an individual component within the conjugate (e.g., the KRAS inhibitor or the antigen binding unit) or a reduction in a side effect of an individual component within the conjugate. The present disclosure encompasses conjugates that comprise an antigen binding unit and a KRAS inhibitor (e.g., a smallmolecule KRAS inhibitor), wherein the antigen binding unit targets a first antigen, and the KRAS inhibitor reduces signaling output of the KRAS protein. Where desired, the conjugation of the antigen binding unit and the KRAS inhibitor is constructed to be reversible or cleavable such that the KRAS inhibitor is released from the antigen binding unit inside a cell, following, e.g., internalization of the antigen binding unit by the cell.

[0124]

[0148]

[0149]

[0092] In some embodiments, the conjugate of Formula (A) is selected from:

[0150]

[0151]

[0093] In some embodiments, the conjugate of Formula (A) is selected from:

[0152] wherein X, Z, A, R2, R3, R4, R6, R7, R8, R9, R10, R11, R22, n, and m are defined in the KRAS Inhibitors section below, for example, for a compound of Formula (I), (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), or (I-g).

[0153] Antigen Binding Unit

[0154]

[0094] An antigen binding unit of a conjugate can contain one or more antigen binding domains (also referred to as binding domains). In some embodiments, an antigen binding unit has a first binding domain. In some embodiments, an antigen binding unit has a first and a second binding domain that bind to the same antigen. In some embodiments, an antigen binding unit has a first and a second binding domain that bind to different antigens. In some embodiments, an antigen binding unit has a first and second binding domain, and optionally a third or more binding domain.

[0155]

[0095] A binding domain typically recognizes a single antigen. An antigen binding unit of a conjugate can have binding domains that can recognize, for example, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, or more antigens. An antigen binding unit can comprise two binding domains in which each binding domain can recognize the same antigen. An antigen binding unit can comprise two binding domains in which each binding domain can recognize a different antigen. An antigen binding unit can comprise three binding domains in which each binding domain can recognize a different antigen. An antigen binding unit can comprise three binding domains in which two of the binding domains can recognize the same antigen and the third binding domain recognizes a different antigen. In some embodiments, an antigen binding unit is bivalent and mono-specific (i.e., having two binding domains that specifically bind to the same antigen). In embodiments in which an antigen binding unit is trivalent or greater, the antigen binding unit is typically bi-specific or greater. Antigen binding units having a third binding domain attached to the C-terminal end of a light chain and / or the C-terminal end of an Fc domain can be bi-specific, tri-specific or multi-specific.

[0156]

[0096] In some embodiments, an antigen binding unit can be a fusion protein, such as an Fc fusion protein, having a first binding domain and optionally a second binding domain. In some embodiments, two antigen binding domains and an Fc domain can be expressed as a fusion protein, optionally formed by expression of separate polypeptide chains.

[0157]

[0097] A binding domain can specifically bind to an antigen on a cell surface or to a fragment thereof. A binding domain can specifically bind an antigen on a cell surface, for example, a tumor antigen on a tumor cell, on an antigen presenting cell such as a dendritic cell or macrophage, or on another immune cell such as a T cell. In some embodiments, a binding domain can specifically bind to an antigen on a cell surface of a tumor cell or an antigen presenting cell (such as a dendritic cell or macrophage), but not on other immune cells such as T cells. In some embodiments, a binding domain can specifically bind to a tumor antigen. In some embodiments, a binding domain can specifically bind to an antigen on an antigen presenting cell. In some embodiments, a binding domain can be a cell surface receptor agonist, such as an agonistic antibody.

[0158]

[0098] A binding domain can be an antigen-binding portion of an antibody (an antigen binding domain) or an antigen binding antibody fragment. A binding domain can be one or more fragments of an antibody that can retain the ability to specifically bind to an antigen. A binding domain can be in a scaffold, in which a scaffold is a supporting framework for the binding domain. A binding domain, such as an antigen binding fragment of an antibody, can be in an antibody scaffold or antibody-like scaffold. A binding domain can be in a non-antibody scaffold.

[0159]

[0099] Antigen binding units can comprise a binding domain(s) that can specifically bind to a tumor antigen. A tumor antigen can be a tumor specific antigen and / or a tumor associated antigen. As described herein, a “tumor antigen” refers to a molecular marker that can be expressed on a neoplastic tumor cell and / or within a tumor microenvironment. The molecular marker can be a cell surface receptor. For example, a tumor antigen can be an antigen expressed on a cell associated with a tumor, such as a neoplastic cell, stromal cell, endothelial cell, fibroblast, or tumor-infiltrating immune cell. For example, the tumor antigen EGFR can be overexpressed by certain types of head and neck cancer. A tumor antigen can also be ectopically expressed by a tumor and contribute to deregulation of the cell cycle, reduced apoptosis, metastasis, and / or escape from immune surveillance. Tumor antigens are generally proteins or polypeptides derived therefrom, but can be glycans, lipids, or other small organic molecules. Additionally, a tumor antigen can arise through increases or decreases in post-translational processing exhibited by a cancer cell compared to a normal cell, for example, protein glycosylation, protein lipidation, protein phosphorylation, or protein acetylation.

In some embodiments, a binding domain specifically binds EGFR.

[0161]

[0101] EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that mediates normal cell growth and development. Phosphorylation of EGFR activates downstream signaling pathways, including the PI3K / AKT / mTOR, STAT, and RAS / MAPK pathways, that involve cell proliferation, angiogenesis, apoptosis, and metastasis. Overexpression of EGFR is frequently observed in a variety of tumors, including brain, breast, cervical, colorectal, esophageal, head and neck, kidney, lung, ovarian, and stomach cancers. EGFR mutations that result in constitutive activation of EGFR and downstream signaling pathways are associated with a number of cancers. Examples of antibodies that can target and inhibit EGFR include cetuximab, panitumumab, nimotuzumab, zalutumumab, matuzumab, and amivantamab. In some embodiments, the antigen binding unit is an anti-EGFR antibody, such as cetuximab.

[0162]

[0102] A binding domain of an antigen binding unit can be selected from any domain that specifically binds to an antigen, including a binding domain of an antibody or a non-antibody binding domain. A binding domain of an antibody can be a monoclonal antibody, a polyclonal antibody, a recombinant antibody, or an antigen binding fragment thereof, for example, a heavy chain variable domain (VH) and a light chain variable domain (VL). A binding domain of a non-antibody scaffold can be a lipocalin, an anticalin, ‘T-body ’, a peptide (e.g., a Bicycle™ peptide), an affibody, a peptibody, a DARPin, an affimer, an avimer, a knottin, a monobody, an affinity clamp, an ectodomain, a receptor ectodomain, a receptor, a cytokine, a ligand, an immunocytokine, a centryin, a T-cell receptor, or a recombinant T-cell receptor. In some embodiments, a binding domain of a non-antibody scaffold can be a lipocalin, an anticalin, ‘T- body’, an affibody, a peptide (e.g., a Bicycle™ peptide), a peptibody, a DARPin, an affimer, an avimer, a knottin, a monobody, a centryin or an affinity clamp.

[0163]

[0103] In some embodiments, a binding domain of an antigen binding unit is an antigen binding domain from a monoclonal antibody and can comprise a light chain and a heavy chain. In an embodiment, the monoclonal antibody binds to a tumor antigen and comprises the light chain of a tumor antigen antibody and the heavy chain of a tumor antigen antibody, which specifically bind to the tumor antigen. In another embodiment, the monoclonal antibody binds to an antigen present on the surface of an immune cell (immune cell antigen) and comprises the light chain of an anti-immune cell antigen antibody and the heavy chain of an anti-immune cell antigen antibody, which specifically bind to an immune cell antigen. In another embodiment, the monoclonal antibody specifically binds to an antigen present on the surface of an antigen presenting cell (APC antigen) and comprises the light chain of an anti-APC antigen antibody and the heavy chain of an anti-APC antigen antibody, which bind an APC antigen.

[0164]

[0104] In some embodiments, an antigen binding unit can comprise an antibody, such as a bivalent, mono-specific antibody. An antibody can consist of two identical light protein chains (light chains) and two identical heavy protein chains (heavy chains), all held together covalently by interchain disulfide linkages. The N-terminal regions of the light and heavy chains together can form the antigen recognition site of the antibody. Structurally, various functions of an antibody can be confined to discrete protein domains or regions. The portions that can recognize and can specifically bind to an antigen consist of three complementarity determining regions (CDRs) that he within the variable heavy chain regions and variable light chain regions at the N-terminal ends of the heavy and light chains. The constant domains provide the general framework of the antibody and may not be involved directly in binding the antibody to an antigen, but can be involved in various effector functions, such as participation of the antibody in antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC).

[0165]

[0105] In some embodiments, an antigen binding unit comprises an antigen binding domain of an antibody that includes the light chain (LC) CDRs (LCDRs) and heavy chain (HC) CDRs (HCDRs) of the antibody. For example, an antigen binding domain of an antibody can comprise one or more of the following: a light chain complementary determining region 1 (LCDR1), a light chain complementary determining region 2 (LCDR2), or a light chain complementary determining region 3 (LCDR3). As another example, an antibody binding domain can comprise one or more of the following: a heavy chain complementary determining region 1 (HCDR1), a heavy chain complementary determining region 2 (HCDR2), or a heavy chain complementary determining region 3 (HCDR3). In some embodiments an antigen binding domain comprises all of the following: LCDR1, LCDR2, LCDR3, HCDR1, HCDR2 and HCDR3. Unless stated otherwise, the CDRs described herein are defined according to the IMGT (the international ImMunoGeneTics information system) or the Kabat numbering system. In some embodiments, an antigen binding domain can comprise only the heavy chain of an antibody (e.g., does not include the light chain(s)). In some embodiments, an antigen binding domain can comprise only the light chain of an antibody (e.g., does not include the heavy chain(s)). In some embodiments, an antigen binding domain can comprise only the variable region of the heavy chain of an antibody. In some embodiments, an antigen binding domain can comprise only the variable region of the light chain of an antibody.

[0166]

[0106] An antigen binding unit can also comprise any antigen binding fragment of an antibody or recombinant form thereof, including but not limited to an scFv, Fab, Fab’, Fab2, variable Fv fragment (Fv), domain antibody, and any other fragment thereof that can specifically bind to an antigen.

[0167]

[0107] An antibody used herein can be chimeric or “humanized”. Humanized forms of non-human (e.g., murine) antibodies can be chimeric immunoglobulins, immunoglobulin chains or fragments thereof (such as Fv, Fab, Fab’, F(ab’)2, scFv, variable Fv fragment (Fv), domain antibody or other antigen-binding subdomains of antibodies), that contain minimal sequences derived from non-human immunoglobulin (e.g., the CDRs). In general, a humanized antibody can comprise substantially all of at least one, and typically two, variable domains, in which all or substantially all of the CDRs correspond to those of a non-human immunoglobulin and all or substantially all of the framework regions (FR) are those of a human immunoglobulin sequence. The humanized antibody can also comprise at least a portion of an immunoglobulin constant region (Fc), typically that of a human immunoglobulin consensus sequence.

[0168]

[0108] An antibody also can be a human antibody. As used herein, “human antibodies” include antibodies having, for example, the amino acid sequence of a human immunoglobulin and include antibodies isolated from human immunoglobulin libraries or from animals transgenic for one or more human immunoglobulins that do not express endogenous immunoglobulins. Human antibodies can be produced using transgenic mice which are incapable of expressing functional endogenous immunoglobulins, but which can express human immunoglobulin genes. Completely human antibodies that recognize a selected epitope can be generated using guided selection. In this approach, a selected non-human monoclonal antibody, e.g., a mouse antibody, is used to guide the selection of a completely human antibody recognizing the same epitope.

[0169]

[0109] An antibody described herein can be a derivatized antibody. For example, derivatized antibodies can be modified by glycosylation, acetylation, pegylation, phosphorylation, amidation, derivatization by known protecting / blocking groups, proteolytic cleavage, and the like. An antibody can also be modified, such as by defucosylation or deglycosylation.

[0170] [HO] An antibody can be a bispecific antibody or a dual variable domain antibody (DVD). Bispecific and DVD antibodies are monoclonal, often human or humanized, antibodies that have binding specificities for at least two different antigens (e.g., bi-specific). An antigen binding unit described herein may comprise a first binding domain and a second binding domain or a third binding domain that specifically binds to a different antigen than the first binding domain. An antigen binding unit may comprise a second binding domain or a third binding domain that specifically binds to a tumor antigen or an immune cell.

[0171] [Ill] Conjugates comprising antigen binding units described herein may have a dissociation constant (Kd) that is less than 10 nM for the target of the binding domain. A conjugate comprising a bispecific antigen binding unit may have a dissociation constant (Kd) that is less than 10 nM for the target of the second binding domain. The conjugates or antigen binding units may have a dissociation constant (Kd) that is less than 1 nM, less than 100 pM, less than 10 pM, less than 1 pM, or less than 0. 1 pM.

[0172] Linkers

[0112] The conjugates described herein optionally include a linker or linkers that attach at least one KRAS inhibitor to an antigen binding unit. The linker may be a cleavable linker, such as a peptide linker, or a non- cleavable linker. A conjugate may comprise multiple linkers. These linkers can be the same linker or different linkers. In some embodiments, more than one payload, such as a KRAS inhibitor, is attached to a single linker. The payload may be the same or different.

[0173]

[0113] Typically, linkers of the present disclosure attach a KRAS inhibitor(s) to an antigen binding unit by forming a covalent linkage to the KRAS inhibitor at one location and a covalent linkage to the antigen binding unit of the conjugate at another. Covalent linkages can be formed by reaction between functional groups on the linker and functional groups on the KRAS inhibitor and antigen binding unit of the conjugate. As used herein, the expression “linker” includes linker presented in different context such as (i) unconjugated forms of the linker that comprise a functional group capable of forming a covalent bond with an antigen binding unit; (ii) partially conjugated forms of the linker covalently attached to a KRAS inhibitor, wherein the linker comprises a functional group capable of forming a covalent bond with an antigen binding unit; (iii) partially conjugated forms of the linker covalently attached to an antigen binding unit, wherein the linker comprises a functional group capable of forming a covalent bond with a KRAS inhibitor for generating a conjugate; and (iv) fully conjugated forms of the linker covalently attached to both a KRAS inhibitor and an antigen binding unit.

[0174]

[0114] In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a conjugate formed by contacting an antigen binding unit with a linker attached to a KRAS inhibitor under conditions in which the linker covalently binds to the antigen binding unit. In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a method of making a conjugate, comprising contacting an antigen binding unit with a linker attached to a KRAS inhibitor under conditions in which the linker covalently binds to the antigen binding unit, thereby forming the conjugate. In some embodiments, the linker comprises an electrophilic group that is capable of reacting with a nucleophilic group present on the antigen binding unit to form a covalent bond between the linker and the antigen binding unit. In some embodiments, the electrophilic group reacts with a sulfhydryl, hydroxyl, or amino functional group of the antigen binding unit. Suitable electrophilic groups include maleimides, haloacetamides, and NHS esters. In some embodiments, the linker comprises a nucleophilic group that is capable of reacting with an electrophilic group present in the antigen binding unit to form a covalent bond between the linker and the antigen binding unit. In some embodiments, the electrophilic group reacts with a hydrazide, hydroxylamine, amino, hydrazine, thiosemicarbazone, hydrazine carboxylate, or arylhydrazide functional group of the linker.

[0175]

[0115] As further described herein, a linker can be short, long, flexible, rigid, hydrophilic, or hydrophobic. A linker may contain segments having different characteristics, such as segments that are flexible or rigid. In some embodiments, a linker is chemically stable in extracellular environments, such as in the blood stream. In some embodiments, a linker or fragment thereof is not stable, such as a linker that undergoes cleavage and / or immolation or otherwise breaks down under certain physiological conditions, such as conditions found inside a tumor cell. In some embodiments, a linker is cleavable by one or more enzymes, such as a protease. A cleavable linker may be cleaved in vitro or in vivo. Cleavable linkers can include chemically or enzymatically unstable or degradable linkages. In some embodiments, cleavable linkers rely on processes inside the cell to liberate a KRAS inhibitor, such as reduction in the cytoplasm, exposure to acidic conditions in the lysosome, or cleavage by specific proteases or other enzymes within the cell. Cleavable linkers can incorporate one or more chemical bonds that are chemically or enzymatically cleavable, while the remainder of the linker may be non-cleavable.

[0176]

[0116] A linker may contain a chemically labile group such as a hydrazone or disulfide group. Linkers comprising chemically labile groups can exploit differential properties between the plasma and some cytoplasmic compartments. The intracellular conditions that can facilitate KRAS inhibitor release for hydrazine-containing linkers can be the acidic environment of endosomes and lysosomes, while disulfide-containing linkers can be reduced in the cytosol, which can contain high thiol concentrations (e.g., glutathione). The plasma stability of a linker containing a chemically labile group can be increased by introducing steric hindrance using substituents near the chemically labile group.

[0177]

[0117] Acid-labile groups, such as hydrazones, can remain intact during systemic circulation in the neutral pH of the blood (pH 7.3 -7.5) and can undergo hydrolysis and release a KRAS inhibitor once the conjugate is internalized into mildly acidic endosomal (pH 5.0-6.5) or lysosomal (pH 4.5-5.0) compartments of the cell. This pH dependent release mechanism can be associated with nonspecific release of the KRAS inhibitor. To increase the stability of the hydrazone group of the linker, the linker may be varied by chemical modification, e.g., substitution, allowing tuning to achieve more efficient release in the lysosome with minimal loss in circulation.

[0178]

[0118] Hydrazone-containing linkers can contain additional cleavage sites, such as additional acid-labile cleavage sites and / or enzymatically labile cleavage sites. Conjugates including hydrazone-containing linkers may include a

[0179]

[0119] In some embodiments, the linker is cleavable by a protease that is typically present in the disease microenvironment. The linker may contain a protease cleavage site for a protease that is overexpressed in the disease microenvironment. Cleavage of the protease cleavage site allows for the selective release of the KRAS inhibitor in the disease microenvironment while sparing normal cells or tissue from the KRAS inhibitor. In some embodiments, the linker contains a protease cleavage site for a protease selected from legumain, plasmin, TMPRSS3, TMPRSS4, TMPRSS6, MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-8, MMP-9, MMP-14, MT1-MMP, CATHEPSIN D, CATHEPSIN K, CATHEPSIN S, ADAM10, ADAM12, ADAMTS, Caspase-1, Caspase-2, Caspase-3, Caspase-4, Caspase-5, Caspase-6, Caspase-7, Caspase-8, Caspase-9, Caspase-10, Caspase-11, Caspase- 12, Caspase-13, Caspase-14, TACE, a serine protease, a cysteine protease, human neutrophil elastase, beta- secretase, uPA, fibroblast associated protein, matriptase, PSMA, and PSA.

[0180]

[0120] In some embodiments, the linker is cleavable by a protease found in the extracellular microenvironment of the target cells, whereby cleavage of the protease cleavage site results in release of an active form of the KRAS inhibitor in the extracellular microenvironment. In some embodiments, the linker is cleavable by a protease found in the intracellular microenvironment of the target cells, whereby cleavage of the protease cleavage site results in release of an active form of the KRAS inhibitor in the intracellular microenvironment. In some embodiments, the protease is preferentially localized in the extracellular or intracellular microenvironment of the target cells. Preferential localization of a protease in an extracellular or intracellular microenvironment refers to the increased presence of an active or activatable form of the protease in the vicinity of the target cells associated with a disease to be treated, such that the protease can cleave the protease cleavage site and release an active form of the KRAS inhibitor upon or after antigen binding by the conjugate, as compared to the amount of protease in an extracellular or intracellular environment of normal cells (e.g., cells not associated with the disease).

[0121] A linker containing such a protease cleavage site may further comprise one or more components selected from pentafluorophenyl, succinimide, maleimide, and para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA). In some embodiments, the linker is a compound of the formula: (maleimidocaproyl)-(protease cleavage site)-(para-aminobenzyloxycarbonyl). The linker may comprise a maleimide at one end and a protease cleavage site at the other end. In some embodiments, the linker comprises a maleimide at one end, a protease cleavage site, and a self-immolative unit on the other end which is activated upon cleavage of the protease cleavage site. In some embodiments, the linker comprises a lysine residue, optionally having an acylated amine, and a protease cleavage site. In some embodiments, the linker is a compound of the formula Rx-SL-Pc-Iu, wherein Rxis a reactive moiety capable of forming a covalent bond with an antigen binding unit; SLis a stretcher unit, such as C1-10alkyl, PEG 1-5, or a combination thereof; Pcis a protease cleavage site, such as a dipeptide, tripeptide, or tetrapeptide described herein; and Iuis a self-immolative unit, such as p-aniinobenzyI carbamate.

[0181]

[0122] In some embodiments, the linker comprises a peptide, such as a dipeptide, tripeptide, or tetrapeptide. The peptide may comprise natural amino acids, unnatural amino acids, or combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the peptide comprises L-amino acids. In some embodiments, the linker comprises a component selected from Val- Cit, Cit-Val, Ala-Ala, Ala-Cit, Cit-Ala, Asn-Cit, Cit-Asn, Cit-Cit, Val-Glu, Glu-Val, Ser-Cit, Cit-Ser, Lys-Cit, Cit- Lys, Asp-Cit, Cit-Asp, Val-Ala, Ala-Vai, Val-Val, Val-Gly, Gly-Val, Phe-Lys, Lys-Phe, Val-Lys, Lys-Val, Ala- Lys, Lys-Ala, Phe-Cit, Cit-Phe, Leu-Cit, Cit-Leu, Ile-Cit, Cit-Ile, Phe-Arg, Arg-Phe, Cit-Trp, Trp-Cit, Gly-Gly, Gly- Cit, Cit-Gly, Ala-Pro, Pro-Ala, Ala-Ser, Ser-Ala, Glu-Val-Cit, Cit- Val-Glu, Glu-Gly-Cit, Cit-Gly-Glu, Asn-Ala-Ala, Ala-Ala-Asn, and Ala-Gly-Ala. In some embodiments, the linker comprises one or more components selected from Val-Cit, Glu-Val-Cit, Val-Ala, Val-Val, Val-Gly, Gly-Gly, Gly-Cit, Glu-Gly-Cit, Ala-Ala-Asn, Ala-Gly-Ala, Ala- Pro, Ala-Ser, and Phe-Lys. In some embodiments, the linker comprises a component selected from Val-Cit and Glu- Val-Cit.

[0182]

[0123] In some embodiments, the linker (L) consists of 10 to 500 atoms, such as 10 to 400 atoms or 10 to 300 atoms. In some embodiments, the linker consists of 30 to 400 atoms, such as 30 to 300 atoms. In some embodiments, the linker comprises one or more components independently selected from alkyl, alkene, alkyne, aryl, cycloalkyl, heterocycle, glycoside, silyl ether, hydroxy, ether, polyether, ketone, ester, polyester, carbonate, amide, polyamide, peptide, polypeptide, urea, carbamate, sulfide, disulfide, sulfate, sulfonamide, phosphate, hydrazone, and succinimide. In some embodiments, the linker comprises one or more components independently selected from alkyl, alkene, alkyne, aryl, cycloalkyl, heterocycle, glycoside, silyl ether, hydroxy, ether, ketone, ester, carbonate, amide, urea, carbamate, sulfide, disulfide, sulfate, sulfonamide, phosphate, hydrazone, and succinimide.

[0183]

[0124] A KRAS inhibitor that is directly attached to a peptide linker can be proteolytically released as an amino acid adduct of the KRAS inhibitor. Such adduct may be active in vivo, or the in vivo activity of the adduct relative to the KRAS inhibitor may be impaired. In some embodiments, a linker comprises a self-immolative spacer to separate the KRAS inhibitor from the site of proteolytic cleavage. Use of a self-immolative spacer can allow for the separation of the fully active, chemically unmodified KRAS inhibitor upon amide bond hydrolysis.

[0184]

[0125] Para-aminobenzyl alcohol is a self-immolative spacer that can be incorporated into a linker of the present disclosure. In particular, the amino group can form an amide bond with an amino acid residue of the linker, while an amine of the KRAS inhibitor can be connected to the benzylic alcohol through a carbamate group. Following cleavage of the amide bond in vivo (e.g., via proteolytic cleavage of a peptide linker), a 1 ,6-elimination reaction releases the KRAS inhibitor (D) as depicted in the following scheme:

[0185] Similarly, the same spacer may be used to connect KRAS inhibitors containing a phenol group to the remainder of the linker as a para-aminobenzyl ether (PABE). Self-immolative spacers that comprise a methylene carbamate unit suitable for conjugation with a KRAS inhibitor having a functional group such as a hydroxyl, thiol, amide, or amine are described in WO 2015 / 095755, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Following cleavage of the amide bond in vivo, a 1 ,6-elimination reaction and subsequent decomposition releases the KRAS inhibitor (D) as depicted in the following simplified scheme:

[0186]

[0126] Cleavable linkers described herein may comprise non-cleavable portions or segments. Similarly, an otherwise non-cleavable linker may be modified to include a cleavable portion or segment to render it cleavable. By way of example only, polyethylene glycol (PEG) and related polymers can include cleavable groups in the polymer backbone. For example, a polyethylene glycol or polymer linker may include one or more protease cleavable groups.

[0187]

[0127] Maleimide groups may be used in the preparation of conjugates of the present disclosure due to their specificity for reacting with thiol groups of, for example, cysteine groups of the antigen binding unit of a conjugate. The reaction between a thiol group of an antigen binding unit and a linker comprising a maleimide group may proceed according to the following scheme: wherein indicates an attachment site to the remainder of the linker, optionally wherein the linker comprises the KRAS inhibitor.

[0188]

[0128] The reverse reaction leading to maleimide elimination from a thio-substituted succinimide may also take place. This reverse reaction is undesirable, as the maleimide group may subsequently react with another available thiol group such as other proteins in the body having available cysteine residues. Accordingly, the reverse reaction can undermine the specificity of a conjugate. One method of preventing the reverse reaction is to incorporate a basic group into the linking group as shown in the scheme below. Not wishing to be bound by any particular theory, the presence of the basic group may increase the nucleophilicity of nearby water molecules to promote ring-opening hydrolysis of the succinimide group. The hydrolyzed form of the succinimide is resistant to deconjugation in plasma. So called “self-stabilizing” linkers may provide conjugates with improved stability. A representative example is provided in the following scheme: wherein indicates an attachment site to the remainder of the linker, optionally wherein the linker comprises the KRAS inhibitor. Two possible isomers can result from the hydrolysis reaction even though a mechanism is only depicted for the formation of the first.

[0189]

[0129] The identity of the base as well as the distance between the base and the maleimide group can be modified to tune the rate of hydrolysis of the thio-substituted succinimide group. Bases suitable for inclusion in a linker described herein, e.g., any linker comprising a maleimide group prior to conjugating to an antigen binding unit, may facilitate hydrolysis of a nearby succinimide group formed after conjugation of the antigen binding unit to the linker. Bases may include, for example, amines (e.g., N(R12)(R13)), nitrogen-containing heterocycles (e.g., a 3- to 12- membered heterocycle comprising one or more nitrogen atoms), amidines, guanidines, and carbocycles or heterocycles substituted with one or more amine groups. A basic unit may be separated from a maleimide group by, for example, an alkylene chain, such as C1-10alkylene, wherein the alkylene is optionally substituted. A linker of the present disclosure that comprises a maleimide group may further comprise an electron withdrawing group, such as - C(O)R12, =O, -CN, -NO2, -CF3, -CBR3, -CC13, -CI3, halogen, -C(O)2R12, -C(O)N(R12)(R13), -C(O)R12, -C(O)F, - C(O)Br, -C(O)C1, -C(O)I, -SO2R12, -SO3R12, -SO2NHR12, -SO2N(R12)(R13), -PO3R12R13, -P(O)(CH3)NHR12, -NO, - N(R12)3+, -CR12=C(R12)2, and -C=CR12. Such linkers may also comprise an aryl group (e.g., phenyl) or heteroaryl group (e.g., pyridyl), each of which is optionally substituted with one or more electron withdrawing groups such as those described herein. Further examples of self-stabilizing linkers are provided in WO 2013 / 173337, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. It will be understood that references herein to a linker comprising a maleimide group may equivalently describe a conjugate having a linker comprising a thio-substituted succinimide group or a hydrolyzed, ring-opened thio-substituted succinimide group, and vice versa. In some embodiments, a linker comprises a component selected from ,;wherein indicates an attachment site to the remainder of the linker, optionally wherein the linker comprises the KRAS inhibitor.

[0190]

[0130] A linker may bridge a pair of sulfhydryl groups derived from reduction of a native hinge disulfide bond found in an antigen binding unit. An advantage of this methodology is the ability to synthesize homogenous DAR4 conjugates (e.g., conjugates of Formula (A) wherein p is 4) by full reduction of IgGs to afford 4 pairs of sulfhydryls from interchain disulfide bonds followed by 4 equivalents of the conjugating agent. wherein indicates an attachment site to the remainder of the linker, optionally wherein the linker comprises the KRAS inhibitor. Similarly, a maleimide derivative may be used to bridge a pair of sulfhydryl groups: wherein indicates an attachment site to the remainder of the linker, optionally wherein the linker comprises the KRAS inhibitor.

[0191]

[0131] A linker may be polyvalent such that it covalently links more than one KRAS inhibitor to a single site on the antigen binding unit, or monovalent such that it covalently links a single KRAS inhibitor to a single site of the antigen binding unit. Exemplary polyvalent linkers that may be used to attach two or more KRAS inhibitors to an antigen binding unit of the conjugate include Fleximer® linkers. A Fleximer® linker utilizes a solubilizing poly acetal backbone to incorporate two or more KRAS inhibitors (D) via a sequence of ester bonds, for example, utilizing a linker comprising two or more units of the structure shown below. This methodology can render highly- loaded conjugates (e.g., DAR20 — conjugates of Formula (A) wherein q is 20).

[0192] An aliphatic alcohol may be present or introduced into a KRAS inhibitor to utilize this linker. In some embodiments, the alcohol moiety is then attached to an alanine moiety, which is then systematically incorporated into the Fleximer® linker. Liposomal processing of the conjugate in vitro releases the parent alcohol-containing drug. In some embodiment, the linker utilized for producing a subject conjugate may take on different formats. In some instances the linker, linker modified Kras inhibitor, or conjugate may take a form described below in this paragraph. In embodiments, the chemical linker is a chemical linker described in WO2020 / 236841, which is incorporated herein in its entirety.
